[00:00] <Maximo_> you aliased cd and forgot about it? :P
[00:00] <Maximo_> that's a recipe for disaster
[00:00] <nydel> somebody did. i don't use this particular system
[00:00] <nydel> now i get to find out what the hell cdmodified is
[00:00] <nydel> i hope it's a command logger
[00:01] <l0rdn1x> lol
[00:02] <nydel> holy hell it's a symlink to a bash script that calls scp to append a file on some system logging in as data:(something in base64)
[00:03] <nydel> thanks Jordan_U you just made my job fun for the day
[00:04] <Jordan_U> nydel: You're welcome :)
[00:04] <rgenito> ehh, damn... when i do apt-get install gpart ..
[00:04] <nydel> i run security operations here and there, i think i will make a list of commands that should never be aliased.
[00:04] <SupaYoshi> anyone here runnign virtualbox 4.3 and virtualbox-fuse
[00:04] <SupaYoshi> I cant seem to install both.
[00:04] <Maximo_> nydel, what an incredibly stupid thing for someone to do
[00:04] <Yukitteru> SupaYoshi: I'm using VirtualBox
[00:05] <SupaYoshi> Yukitteru, Version 4.3?
[00:05] <rgenito> nydel, oh ya? i'd love to see that
[00:05] <SupaYoshi> Or the one provided by ubuntu apt-get?
[00:05] <SupaYoshi> cus im trying to install virtualbox-fuse to mount the hdd in linux
[00:05] <SupaYoshi> but it wont let me do that, with 4.3
[00:05] <Yukitteru> SupaYoshi: Using Windows, sorry :I
[00:05] <rgenito> SupaYoshi, nice :)
[00:05] <nydel> Maximo_: Jordan_U: my client's ex-husband runs the server, i just looked it up. i happen to know his business. what in the hell do i do with this.
[00:06] <Bashing-om> Maximo_: IF the PPA " ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa " exists in the 3rd party directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d ; then I do expect -> sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade , sudo apt-get install wine1.7 to do the trick.
[00:06] <mgolisch> SupaYoshi: did you install virtualbox from the ubuntu repository?
[00:07] <delta9> how do i setup automatic updates?
[00:07] <Maximo_> Bashing-om, ah, that seems to work. thanks :)
[00:07] <Bashing-om> Maximo_: :) , was not all that positive, but I did so think .
[00:08] <Maximo_> nydel, I think you have a responsibility to inform your client that their input is being logged
[00:09] <SupaYoshi> no
[00:09] <Yukitteru> I'm liking 14.10 so far..
[00:09] <nydel> Maximo_: yeah but i cracked the base64 password, logged into the other machine & deleted the instance of my running "alias" -- force of habit -- my client's gonna ask me to keep it in place and take advantage
[00:10] <nydel> ...if they know it's there.
[00:10] <Maximo_> who could imagine such drama could result from merely using cd
[00:11] <nydel> exactly what i'm thinking!
[00:11] <nydel> i don't trust the client anymore. of course i'd catch this, right? what the hell have i walked into here
[00:11] <NegativeFlare> nydel: Whoa now
[00:11] <NegativeFlare> Language
[00:12] <nydel> NegativeFlare: my apologies, that was out of line. won't happen again. forgot where i was.
[00:12] <Maximo_> nydel, oh, I assumed someone had modified the command to log what your client was doing
[00:12] <NegativeFlare> nydel: No problem.
[00:13] <nydel> Maximo_: someone may have - or i'm supposed to catch this and report it - that's what this feels like.
[00:14] <mgolisch> SupaYoshi: thats probably why then, the fuseblub thing references the version from the repo but you have the virtualbox.org one
[00:14] <mgolisch> SupaYoshi: why do you need to do that ? you could just attach the disk to a vm and access stuff using filesharing
[00:14] <SupaYoshi> Yeah
[00:14] <nydel> (this is getting offtopic, i'll be in ubuntu-offtopic if anyone wants to continue)
[00:15] <SupaYoshi> mgodzilla
[00:15] <SupaYoshi> mgolisch wym?
[00:15] <SupaYoshi> im emulating windowz 3.11 man
[00:15] <SupaYoshi> File sharing wtf is that?
[00:15] <SupaYoshi> This is 1994
[00:16] <NegativeFlare> !offtopic | SupaYoshi
[00:16] <SupaYoshi> oki oki :)
[00:16] <mgolisch> attach the disk to a vm running in virtualbox, mount there, and access via samba/cifs/sshfs or the builtin filesharing thing
[00:34] <Kuttner> So any fine gentlemen (women) help with a printer issue?  It used to work in Linux mint.  I also removed reinstalled cups and the HPLIP software and nothing.
[00:35] <bubbasaures> Kuttner, You tried checking printers first, right?
[00:35] <Kuttner> yes it is active with a green check
[00:36] <Kuttner> wont print a test page via hplip
[00:37] <Kuttner> but will clean cartridges
[00:37] <bubbasaures> Kuttner, I have to take off, but check if there are other very close versions, I have had to go that route in the past, meaning like same printer but maybe this one has extra notations or another driver does.
[00:37] <Kuttner> K thanks
[00:51] <langxianmeng> when i use remmina connected to windows7 if i press l the remote computer will be locked seems that "win+l" was pressed ,why?
[00:51] <langxianmeng> so  strange
[01:01] <drop_> Jordan_U, hey man, i checked as you say for md5sum no problem with that, and i googled and googled, and finaly find same issue as mine, and "fix" for problem was to isohybrid my iso file and then burn it whit bb comand, and now i dont have error like before.. now i have blank screen x) do you maybe have any idea?
[01:05] <hexafraction> Hi, what sudoers entry would I need to allow a user "logonuser" to run command "cmd" as user "daemonuser" without a password? The user is already allowed to run  all commands, by specifying a password, using "logonuser ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL". I'm having trouble understanding the manpage for sudoers, and where I would put the  user to run as, the NOPASSWD keyword, and the command itself. I currently run "sudo -u daemonuser cmd" and put in the 
[01:11] <ZeroDivided> Hi, doesn anyone here know how to get a Wacom tablet working on 14.04?
[01:13] <cfhowlett> ZeroDivided, there's a wacom driver included in edubuntu ... searching package list
[01:14] <ZeroDivided> cfhowlett, yeah I saw that the driver was loaded with lsmod
[01:14] <ZeroDivided> and the wacom settings detected it
[01:14] <ZeroDivided> Just doesn't seem to move the cursor
[01:15] <cfhowlett> ZeroDivided, hmm.  never played with the hardware myself.  perhaps ask in #ubuntustudio?  or the ubuntu forums
[01:15] <ZeroDivided> Ok, Ill check it out
[01:16] <ZeroDivided> Seems like it worked before OOTB
[01:19] <ZeroDivided> cfhowlett, do you think I would need to restart my system to get it working?
[01:20] <cfhowlett> ZeroDivided, should be necessary, but couldn't hut to gry
[01:20] <cfhowlett> *try*&
[01:20] <ZeroDivided> RIP uptime :(. Thanks!
[01:21] <OerHeks> No, wacom ibamboo works here OOTB
[01:22] <ZeroDivided> no soup
[01:23] <OerHeks> ZeroDivided, what wacom tablet ?
[01:23] <OerHeks> bamboo works fine here, OOTB without restart
[01:23] <ZeroDivided> Intuos4 Model: PTK-440
[01:24] <ZeroDivided> OerHeks, Can  you explain how its working? Does it control your mouse pointer on the desktop?
[01:25] <OerHeks> ZeroDivided, yes, together with my normal mouse
[01:25] <ZeroDivided> Hmm, yeah mine is having issues then
[01:26] <ZeroDivided> Applications detect it but I can't control anything
[01:26] <ZeroDivided> ....maybe its a hardware issue. Ill try on another machine
[01:26] <OerHeks> but the size of the tablet is to small to reach the end of my screen, so i have to lift it and wipe 2-3 times to get there
[01:26] <OerHeks> does it cme with battery in the pen?
[01:26] <OerHeks> *come
[01:26] <ZeroDivided> Good question...
[01:27] <OerHeks> mine does not, it is a magnet pen i guess
[01:28] <ZeroDivided> Doesnt look like it
[01:28] <ZeroDivided> Also, it came with a mouse to use on the tablet.. that doesnt work either
[01:31] <squinty> ZeroDivided:  out of curiosity I plugged in my daughters CTL-470 she left here and the 14.04 on this box recognizes and loads driver ok but I don't see either a mouse or pen for it here.  Never used one of these before so am not sure what application would be used with it...but I guess that point is moot with no mouse or pen to use.  lol
[01:32] <ZeroDivided> Thanks for trying squinty! I'm trying to use it with Gimp to sign a job application lol
[01:33] <daftykins> at this point you'd be better off drawing in pen, taking a picture with a phone and pasting it in
[01:33] <ZeroDivided> ...thats a good idea
[01:34] <ZeroDivided> I'm trying it out in a windows VM now... just to see if it is a hardware issue
[01:34] <cfhowlett> !cookie | daftykins,
[01:35] <daftykins> cfhowlett: ;)
[01:36] <ZeroDivided> I did have a lightning strike take out every electronic device in my house not too long ago... maybe the tablet was plugged in.
[01:36] <jakesyl> whats the command to see the value of a key you psuh
[01:38] <ZeroDivided> jakesyl, what kind of command do you want? Bash?
[01:38] <jakesyl> yup
[01:38] <Bashing-om> jakesyl: xev .
[01:39] <ZeroDivided> Bashin-om++
[01:39] <ZeroDivided> Bashing-om++
[01:44] <SchrodingersScat> jakesyl: xev | grep -A 5 -i keypress ##was helpful for me, since all that mouse move.  ZeroDivided neat, thanks.
[01:45] <jakesyl> okay let me try it
[01:48] <^Magizian^> http://magizian.net
[01:57] <jakesyl> what are the advantages to splitting up the /home /usr /bin /tmp and /var into partitions
[01:57] <agent_white> How do I get to a certain section of a man page? ie - I need to get to the "COLORS AND GRAPHICS" section of the rxvt man page.
[01:58] <SchrodingersScat> agent_white: I think one way would be to hit / then type out COLORS AND GRAPHICS then return, hitting / followed by return should search for the next instance
[01:58] <OerHeks> jakesyl, that is just up to you, seperate home can be handy when you reinstall
[01:59] <agent_white> SchrodingersScat: Oh I know how to search!  Thank you for your help though :) I think I misread the man page. :P
[02:00] <violinappren> jakesyly: for /home you can keep your files if you decide to reinstall the OS, for /var you can prevent log files from consuming all your free space, for /tmp don't use  a physical partition, use tmpfs (RAM-based filesystem)
[02:00] <SchrodingersScat> man man?
[02:00] <violinappren> jakesyl ^
[02:00] <samthewildone> How do I get to have .html files only open with Kompozer ?
[02:01] <jakesyl> thanks
[02:01] <violinappren> samthewildone: what desktop environment are you using? GNOME, KDE, XFCE, .. ?
[02:01] <samthewildone> Gnome
[02:01] <OerHeks> sam, rightclick > open with ... ( if komozer is not there, choose 'other')
[02:01] <samthewildone> there is no other
[02:01] <OerHeks> *kompozer
[02:02] <samthewildone> Well... there is other but, "kompozer" isn't on the list.
[02:02] <OerHeks> oh gnome desktop, i don know
[02:02] <violinappren> jakesyl: practically you should only keep /home and /tmp on separate partitions/mount points
[02:03] <OerHeks> samthewildone, choose other and browse to it?
[02:03] <samthewildone>  OerHeks no luck mate
[02:03] <samthewildone> OerHeks, Did that, but Kompozer doesn't show up.
[02:03] <SchrodingersScat> should be in /usr/bin/ yeah?
[02:04] <OerHeks> find out where Kompozer is > which kompozer
[02:04] <l2ksolkov> Should i turn on Legacy Boot mode info my UEFI settings when trying to install Ubuntu?
[02:04] <l2ksolkov> in*
[02:04] <daftykins> l2ksolkov: are you installing beside an EFI windows 8?
[02:05] <l2ksolkov> daftykins, replacing EFI windows 8
[02:05] <samthewildone> SchrodingersScat, its in there but, how do I link it ?
[02:05] <daftykins> l2ksolkov: then as long as you nuke the disk's partition table, you can install in legacy or EFI if you like, doesn't matter
[02:06] <l2ksolkov> When i try to boot off the USB stick it gives me "Try ubuntu" and Install
[02:06] <l2ksolkov> Hitting enter on either one just gives me a black screen.
[02:06] <daftykins> graphics hardware?
[02:06] <daftykins> l2ksolkov: did you MD5 your download to check it's good?
[02:07] <l2ksolkov> daftykins, it's good.
[02:07] <daftykins> l2ksolkov: so, graphics hardware? second time asking now.
[02:07] <SchrodingersScat> samthewildone: in my 'open with..' I have "Use a custom command" and then sometimes just being in PATH lets you call it, or you can full path /usr/bin/komposer
[02:08] <samthewildone> SchrodingersScat, gnome or unity ?
[02:08] <SchrodingersScat> samthewildone: xfce
[02:08] <OerHeks> that would be the answer of 'which kompozer'
[02:08] <violinappren> l2ksolkov: http://askubuntu.com/questions/470492/ubuntu-14-04-black-screen-when-installing
[02:08] <l2ksolkov> daftykins, didn't know you were asking me, sorry.  AMD Radeon HD 7340
[02:08] <samthewildone> samthewildone@Olympus:~$ kompozer -v
[02:08] <samthewildone> kompozer.net KompoZer 0.8b3, Copyright (c) 2006-2009 contributors
[02:08] <daftykins> !nomodeset | l2ksolkov also this'll likely be handy
[02:11] <l2ksolkov> daftykins, will try
[02:19] <newb_> is there a way to use nvidia and ati on ubuntu?
[02:19] <cryptodan> newb_: nope
[02:19] <newb_> darn :(
[02:19] <cryptodan> newb_: you can use an AMD Processor and an nVidia vidoe card
[02:20] <Deihmos_> during the live cd there was another theme option but now i have installed the theme isn't available
[02:32] <vertak> I'm having a problem with samba on my 14.04 machine
[02:33] <daftykins> how many guesses do we get?
[02:33] <vertak> I'm able to connect to my Samba share via my Mac's "Connect to Server" (Cmd + K) command, but when I run smbtree my samba share doesn't show up
[02:33] <vertak> you get unlimited guesses.
[02:34] <vertak> I'm confident it's not an smb.conf problem, because I copied the config file being used by one of my friends who's machine IS showing up in smbtree, and even using that config file mine doesn't appear on the list of public samba files (using smbtree)
[02:38] <daftykins> vertak: so the host is running, what?
[02:38] <daftykins> oh sorry yes 14.04
[02:39] <daftykins> vertak: macs are notoriously bad at SMB, have you run the tweak which stops it from using SMBv2?
[02:40] <vertak> I'm sorry let me restate my problem. So I've got it WORKING on my mac, I can connect to the samba share and mount the samba host's share on my mac.
[02:40] <vertak> What I can't do is, on a terminal on my host machine, use smbtree to see my samba share
[02:41] <vertak> My confusion stems from the fact that I KNOW the smb share exists, because I can mount it using the Mac client, but smbtree doesn't acknolwedge that it exists.
[02:42] <daftykins> vertak: sorry no it was my tired eyes reading wrong! can you share a pastebin of your config? just out of curiosity to see if any of the obvious signs are there
[02:43] <vertak> Of course.
[02:43] <Pwnna> does anyone here have a thinkpad?
[02:43] <daftykins> i don't really see the relevance of seeing a share from a given program on the same box though :D
[02:43] <Pwnna> did thinkpad fancontrol stop working for you recently?
[02:43] <Pwnna> thinkpad_acpi is loaded with fan_control=1
[02:43] <Pwnna> but writing to /proc/acpi/ibm/fan yields invalid argument
[02:45] <vertak> daftykins: http://pastebin.com/RpPwNY9F
[02:46] <daftykins> hrmm, config comes from CentOS, interesting
[02:48] <vertak> Yes, I got it from a friend who runs CentOS.
[02:48] <vertak> So this make the Movies, Music, etc. shares publicly accessible.
[02:48] <vertak> so this does make*
[02:48] <vertak> But when i run smbtree, none of my shares appear.
[02:50] <OerHeks> vertak,  strange, i miss ' workgroup = WORKGROUP '  etc
[02:50] <daftykins> mmm, never used that one
[02:51] <mgolisch> do you run nmbd?
[02:51] <mgolisch> i think smbtree relies on netbios to find stuff
[02:52] <vertak> mgolisch: Yes, if I run "ps aux | grep nmbd" I see that I'm running nmbd as a daemon
[02:52] <mgolisch> hm
[02:52] <vertak> My guess is that it's some network problem, because even if I run a config file that I know should work (i.e. I'm running the config file of one of my friends who's samba share does appear in smbtree) it doesn't work
[02:53] <vertak> but I dont' know how to diagnose the problem.
[02:53] <daftykins> are you running smbtree with any switches?
[02:53] <vertak> No
[02:53] <vertak> well, I'm running it with the -d3 option to try to debug
[02:54] <vertak> but besides that, no.
[02:54] <Sunstream> question
[02:54] <vertak> I am getting this though:
[02:54] <vertak> tdb(/var/cache/samba/gencache.tdb): tdb_open_ex: could not open file /var/cache/samba/gencache.tdb: Permission denied
[02:55] <mgolisch> vertak: does -b work?
[02:55] <vertak> and I start smbd by running "sudo service smbd start" so I don't know why I'm getting a Permission Denied.
[02:55] <Sunstream> what program (lightweight and good for tech) i should get for using a webcam for capture and recordinmg?
[02:56] <vertak> Running with -b doesn't actually change the output at all
[02:57] <AndroUser> Anyone familiar with jom social?
[02:57] <OerHeks> Sunstream, cheese can
[02:57] <Sunstream> cheese cam ok
[02:58] <AndroUser> What's another good active channel?
[02:58] <daftykins> for what
[02:59] <vertak> mgolisch: Ah! Another piece of the puzzle. When I run "smbclient -L myhostname" I can see my host.
[02:59] <OerHeks> AndroUser, jom social is commercial, can't help you there
[02:59] <AndroUser> I want a little help building a website
[02:59] <OerHeks> pay for it and you get help :-D
[02:59] <AndroUser> I bought it.. waste of money
[02:59] <OerHeks> AndroUser, then why ask here ?
[03:00] <AndroUser> Only $300 but I didn't even do anything with it in my site
[03:00] <OerHeks> !alis | try some joomla irc channel
[03:00] <Sunstream> okay it says its on my system already but i no fimdy on menu
[03:00] <AndroUser> Cause if someone knew how to do it I'd pay for help maybe
[03:01] <AndroUser> Thx obuttu
[03:02] <ayrus> Hi, can I update vivid 17.2 kernel on 14.04?
[03:02] <ayrus> Hi, can I update v3.17.2-vivid kernel on 14.04?
[03:03] <junkanoo> Question: trying to sftp to /var/www which is owned by root:webgroup - 'ubuntu' user is a member of the webgroup but when i try to upload a file to the /var/www/ directory i get permission denied?  help...
[03:03] <OerHeks> ayrus, no , kernel ppa has 17.1 only for utopic http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[03:04] <OerHeks> or 3.18 rc's
[03:04] <ayrus> OerHeks: Thanks
[03:04] <junkanoo> Question 2: i'm actually able to upload to /var/www but when i try to upload to /var/www/xyz it doesn't work
[03:04] <junkanoo> the chmod was -R
[03:04] <Sunstream> grrrr stupid mini keyboard
[03:04] <OerHeks> ayrus, carefull, it is unsupported here
[03:05] <daftykins> junkanoo: no doubt you didn't set the group permissions properly
[03:05] <ayrus> OerHeks, Now I'm not going to update. I'm going to stick with 3.17.1 utopic. Thanks
[03:05] <daftykins> junkanoo: pastebin a "ls -al /var/www/" and indicate the name of folder 'xyz'
[03:06] <jeaye> I need to backport an application developed on 14.04 to 12.04. Is there a better way to do this other than trial & error finding which shared objects I need to copy?
[03:06] <Sunstream> cheese webcam no work
[03:08] <duckx0r> I'm trying to bind mount one directory into another directory and make the set the uid and gid to someone else. The files in the original directory are owned by mike:frontdesk. This is the entry in my fstab: "/home/ownCloud/frontdesk/ /home/pita/ownCloud/frontdesk/ none bind,uid=pita,gid=pita 0 0" however when I mount it, /home/pita/ownCloud/frontdesk/ is still owned by mike:frontdesk instead of pita:pita. What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to
[03:08] <duckx0r> correctly set the owner and group of the files of a mount like this?
[03:08] <Sunstream> blesh
[03:08] <Sunstream> forget it it will not work
[03:09] <evan111> \part #ubuntu
[03:09] <evan111> \join #emacs
[03:09] <daftykins> duckx0r: i can't help you resolve your method, but what are you trying to achieve?
[03:09] <junkanoo> daftykins, yeah i've checked... they are the same root:webgroup
[03:09] <Sunstream> evan use / not \
[03:09] <Laibsch> daftykins: you know about pbuilder and PPAs?
[03:09] <squinty> evan111:  /  not \
[03:09] <junkanoo> also did a sudo chmod g+s /var/www
[03:10] <daftykins> junkanoo: i'd still prefer to see a pastebin of the command mentioned :)
[03:10] <Laibsch> daftykins: maybe someone has even already backported the application in a PPA
[03:10] <junkanoo> daftykins, 10-4
[03:10] <daftykins> Laibsch: why don't you share what the program is and why you're trying to get it under 12.04 ?
[03:10] <duckx0r> daftykins, just trying to make it so that users can access/modify the files from a shared folder that is mounted in their home directory without being able to set some permissions that will cause the files to not be readable by the other users
[03:10] <Laibsch> daftykins: sorry, wrong, person.  I meant jeaye ^^^
[03:11] <Sunstream> neverminf
[03:11] <jeaye> Laibsch: They have not. It's my own application.
[03:12] <jeaye> Laibsch: A client requires it to be run on 12.04, but I rely on newer openssl, gcc, stdlibc++, etc.
[03:12] <Laibsch> jeaye: "They"? have not?  pbuilder and PPA is what you want to look into, or debuild when building on 12.04 itself
[03:12] <junkanoo> http://pastebin.com/dxejYt7F
[03:12] <junkanoo> /var/www/api_old is the directory i'm trying to write into
[03:12] <Laibsch> jeaye: sounds like you are requiring this for paid work. I consider your question here unethical, then.
[03:13] <Laibsch> jeaye: if you get paid, then you should know about it rather than relying on volunteers doing the work for you.
[03:13] <daftykins> junkanoo: yeah so it doesn't have write permissions for the group... see the missing 'w' from the second 'rwx' ? :)
[03:13] <Laibsch> jeaye: in any case, you get the terms to do the googling now
[03:13] <jeaye> Should everybody that gets paid not use Firefox then?
[03:13] <daftykins> junkanoo: sudo chmod -R g+w /var/www/api_old
[03:13] <junkanoo> daftykins, :) doh thx
[03:13] <jeaye> Or any other free software?
[03:13] <Laibsch> jeaye: the difference is you are asking for FREE support while YOU get paid for the delivery
[03:14] <daftykins> jeaye: lol you're trying to get someone to do your job for you, nice
[03:14] <Laibsch> daftykins: and I basically did, hehehe
[03:14] <jeaye> That's seriously twisting the situation.
[03:15] <Laibsch> now it is up to him to read up
[03:15] <OerHeks> jeaye, it is your application, choos trial & error or demand your client to upgrade to 14.04
[03:15] <Laibsch> or pay someone yourself who knows how to compile ;-)
[03:18] <jeaye> Laibsch: You take a moral high ground to then jab insults? I assert that "Googling" for a SO answer and asking in IRC are no different.
[03:18] <High-rise_9999> Hello. Is it possible to access the documents of an iPad running iOS version 8.1? I prefer to use nemo, but I can use nautilus, assuming that makes any difference. libimobiledevice4 is installed, and I am running Ubuntu 14.04.
[03:18] <jeaye> In terms of volunteers providing answers.
[03:19] <OerHeks> jeaye, stop the rant, Laibsch is gone
[03:19] <jeaye> OerHeks: I realized.
[03:19] <jason25262> Why volunteers?
[03:19] <jason25262> Canonical is for-profit the support can be paid.
[03:20] <daftykins> the users in here that help, are volunteers
[03:20] <daftykins> lets change the topic now though if you wouldn't mind
[03:22] <jason25262> daftykins: Does Ubuntu have https://getspeakup.com/
[03:22] <daftykins> i'm sorry i'm not clicking that link
[03:22] <daftykins> explain in words
[03:22] <jason25262> It is called SpeakUp
[03:23] <jason25262> It is about looking to employees for solving managment problems
[03:23] <jason25262> Within a company like Ubuntu
[03:24] <jason25262> What is the contact name for the Support Manager?
[03:24] <daftykins> not even the slightest clue then :)
[03:24] <daftykins> you do realise this channel is community run, right?
[03:24] <OerHeks> jason25262, http://www.ubuntu.com/legal/ubuntu-advantage/service-description
[03:25] <jason25262>  i'm not clicking that link
[03:26] <jason25262>  explain in words
[03:26]  * rww giggles
[03:26] <daftykins> troll status confirmed
[03:26] <OerHeks> jason25262, further discussion is beyond the scope of this channel.
[03:26] <jason25262> The community can possibly use a strong leader
[03:27] <rww> jason25262: #ubuntu is managed by community members. We do not have "support managers". We have channel operators. One of their jobs is to ensure that #ubuntu sticks to support questions and does not wander off on tangents.
[03:27] <rww> If you want paid support, please contact Canonical. This channel does not have information on Canonical paid support.
[03:27] <OerHeks> We have no leader, jut a ""Self-Appointed Benevolent Dictator for Life" :-D
[03:28] <rww> So, yes, back to actual support now please :)
[03:28]  * OerHeks is always happy to help
[03:30] <kolob> fd
[03:33] <jason25262> Even to pay minimum wage for a support tech isn't going to cost cannonical much
[03:36] <jason25262> to promote sustainable growth
[03:38] <nusr> recently when i wake up and go to my computer, which is on overnight, i find it running with max processing (can hear the fans and processes humming). the only way to regain use is to hard reset. how can i check the logs to see what is hogging all the resources and memory? not current use like top, but a log
[03:40] <daftykins> !reisub
[03:40] <daftykins> nusr: ^
[03:40] <daftykins> not quite what you asked for, but it'll help
[03:41] <Laibsch> nusr: I'd first try to login via ssh or on the console
[03:41] <EriC^^> !info sysstat | nusr install this, use sar
[03:42] <nusr> daftykins: sometimes alt-control- f1-f4 doesn't work becos all the memory is used up too.
[03:42] <Laibsch> to switch to the console, hold Alt+Ctrl+F1
[03:42] <Laibsch> log in, then use top to see what process is running amok
[03:42] <Ubi> test
[03:42] <Ubi> I tried to buy an application
[03:42] <Ubi> Got this error:
[03:42]  * daftykins waits
[03:42] <Laibsch> nusr: how much memory do you have installed?
[03:43] <Ubi> ! Your payment could not be processed. Please verify the submitted information. Reason: Unexpected error.
[03:43] <sacarlson> is there any voice recognition on ubuntu linux that are still actively supported?  I tried google2ubuntu and it seems to be broken saying can't open config file
[03:43] <nusr> this machine has 4gB and the vm is not on
[03:43] <Laibsch> OK
[03:43] <Laibsch> nusr: any swap configured?
[03:43] <nusr> heh no
[03:43] <Laibsch> any RAM-intensive app?  to me it sounds like you have a process with a mem leak
[03:44] <Laibsch> nusr: I'd enable an 8G swap and see how the computer behaves the next day
[03:44] <nusr> i have wine running...so i want to see a log
[03:44] <Laibsch> wine could wreak havoc in all kinds of ways, I guess
[03:44] <nusr> Labisch: to do that I'd have to repartition the drive again?
[03:44] <Laibsch> you can have a swap file
[03:45] <Laibsch> dd;mkswap;swapon
[03:46] <nusr> Laibsch: is that the command for making a swap. sorry I didn't follow that last comment..i tried entering it in terminal and it is not doing anything
[03:46] <Laibsch> those are indeed the commands
[03:46] <Laibsch> but of course you still need the proper switches to them
[03:47] <nusr> Laibsch: what are the switches?
[03:47] <Laibsch> untested: dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/swap1 count=8000 bs=1M
[03:48] <Laibsch> then if that works, you "sudo mkswap /home/swap1;sudo swapon /home/swap1"
[03:48] <Laibsch> just google for "Ubuntu create swap file"
[03:48] <Laibsch> there must be a tutorial out there
[03:49] <rypervenche> Well, 8192 if you want the real 8G
[03:49] <Laibsch> rypervenche: LOL
[03:49] <Laibsch> I'm sure 8190 would do as well ;)
[03:49] <Laibsch> but thanks for the nitpick
[03:50] <rypervenche> It's not nitpicking. 8*1024 is 8190. It's 8*2^10.
[03:50] <Laibsch> nusr: you will need to run the swapon command again every time after reboot
[03:50] <Laibsch> check top or swapon to see if swap is available and how much is used
[03:50] <Laibsch> rypervenche: who cares?!?!
[03:50] <mneuro> How do you enable Tap drag?  It isn't working on my touchpad when i double click a window and try to drag it
[03:51] <nusr> Laibsch, rvpervenche: ok thank you
[03:54] <rypervenche> Laibsch: Those who need a specific amount of space. Powers of 10 and powers of 2 are not the same.
[03:54] <nusr> EriC^^: i've installed sysstat but how do i use it?
[03:56] <EriC^^> nusr: is it running? service --status-all
[03:57] <nusr> EriC^^: yes it is
[03:57] <Laibsch> rypervenche: that is not the case here, so let's stop wasting bandwidth.  You could also point out that he needs to check free space on the home partition or else put it on the /var partition OR, OR, OR.  this is help to get him in the right direction, not hand-hold him.  He needs to understand what he is doing, not use some random commands off the net, so obviously, I expect nusr to change things to fit his needs.  If he wants 8G and not 8000M, I am sure he
[03:58] <rypervenche> Laibsch: Let it go.
[03:58] <nusr> i have a partition on my ubuntu which has questionable files for experimental/study purposes. can files in my partition which is not mounted hog resources?
[03:58] <EriC^^> nusr: man sar
[03:58] <EriC^^> nusr: sar -r lists the current day's memory usage
[03:59] <nusr> EriC^^: ok cool thanks
[03:59] <EriC^^> np
[04:00] <nusr> Cannot open /var/log/sysstat/sa14: No such file or directory Please check if data collecting is enabled in /etc/default/sysstat
[04:00] <EriC^^> nusr: gksu gedit /etc/default/sysstat
[04:01] <EriC^^> set ENABLED="true"
[04:02] <EriC^^> nusr: sudo service sysstat restart
[04:02] <EriC^^> nusr: i think the default interval for collecting data is 10mins, you can set it to whatever you want in cron
[04:02] <nusr> Eric^^: thank you. it works now
[04:06] <EriC^^> nusr: np
[04:28] <pinoyoragon> any rancid users here?
[04:29] <Ben64> pinoyoragon: no idea what that is
[04:30] <edition> I intend to change the Unity theme, according to this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Theming. Where are the theme config files?
[04:31] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[04:33] <OerHeks> edition, that should be a xml file
[04:33] <edition> where abouts?
[04:33] <OerHeks> hi lotus
[04:35] <OerHeks> edition, something like /usr/share/themes/Radiance/metacity-1/metacity-theme-1.xml
[04:35] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: hello :p
[04:35] <edition> thanks
[04:37] <edition> btw, is there a way of changing the default theme?

[04:38] <edition> !changethemes | edition
[04:42] <BusinessMan> May I share a website and ask if anyone can help me modify it (paid ofcourse)
[04:42] <Ben64> nope, not here
[04:42] <OerHeks> BusinessMan, no, that is beyond the scope of this channel
[04:43] <lotuspsychje> BusinessMan: best way would be asking help in the channel that supports the software of your website

[04:50] <xjkx> Whats setting my connection ? I have ADSL, and when I reboot my router ip is set to 192.168.1.10...ok, this exists, but its not connected to my pc. The .10 is connected to the .1, which is the one that is connected to the pc. But pc wants to set itself to .10, why ?
[04:50] <xjkx> When I reboot ubuntu*
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> xjkx: maybe the ##networking guys might know this
[04:51] <xjkx> Hmm
[04:51] <xjkx> Its purely ubuntu question though
[04:51] <xjkx> Some device is setting my router ip to one that isn't
[04:51] <xjkx> Some software I meant
[04:52] <xjkx> If I run command 'route' after reboot, it will say 192.168.1.10, but thats not right
[04:52] <xjkx> I can manually change though
[04:52] <xjkx> And it works
[04:52] <xjkx> But if I reboot again then its back to .10
[04:52] <OerHeks> xjkx, read the manual of your route, it is not an ubuntu issue
[04:52] <OerHeks> * router
[04:54] <usr13> xjkx: Sounds like the router is giving bogus IP configurations.
[04:54] <OerHeks> gateway/dhcp-pool issue
[04:54] <xjkx> usr13: no, this ip exists, its from another router that is connected to this router
[04:55] <xjkx> .10 is connected to router .10
[04:55] <xjkx> Ops
[04:55] <OerHeks> ah router on router, good luck
[04:55] <xjkx> .10 is connected to router .1
[04:55] <xjkx> Yes
[04:55] <xjkx> So ubuntu wants me to have the router .10, but my cable is coming from .1 I dont get it
[04:59] <daftykins> xjkx: two routers? so DHCP servers on both?
[04:59] <skyfall> i cant set a new password in my ubuntu as i like .  its always showing short ? any solution for this  ?
[04:59] <skyfall> other than choosing a different one ?
[05:00] <xjkx> Yes....well I dont know if .10 needs dhcp, but I guess so ? Its offering wifi to phones, tablets, notebooks, etc
[05:01] <OerHeks> skyfall, minimum is 6 characters
[05:01] <skyfall> mine is more than 6. even it says short or weak
[05:02] <skyfall> OerHeks, the change option is not coming active
[05:02] <daftykins> xjkx: i can't really follow your initial explanation, can you explain your setup a bit better?
[05:02] <veebull> Well nuts
[05:02] <OerHeks> https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/user-management.html#password-policy
[05:02] <xjkx> daftykins: I think I explained better on the other channel, so here is the copy, "#Ubuntu sent me here. I have two routers, one is 192.168.1.1, the other is 192.168.1.10. They are connected to each other, the main router is the .1 and its the one I have a cable coming to my pc. Ubuntu automatically sets my router to .10, but its not the one I want and its not the one the cable is coming from, I dont get it. I can manually change though to .1 and it works, but i
[05:02] <veebull> wtf now?!?
[05:03] <OerHeks> !language | veebull
[05:03] <daftykins> xjkx: yeah you need to disable DHCP on the 1.10 router.
[05:03] <veebull> Rebooted into Win7 for some gaming, and reboot to a nonfunctional 14.04
[05:03] <xjkx> daftykins: how will my phone that connects to wifi know what ip to get ? Maybe I'm just new to this
[05:04] <xjkx> The phone connects to .10
[05:04] <daftykins> xjkx: it'll get it from the 1.1 router.
[05:04] <xjkx> Alright, thanks :)
[05:04] <veebull> Login @ the lightdm dialog and then just nothing.  Just sits there.
[05:04] <skyfall> anybody familiar with powertop ?
[05:04] <daftykins> heh i was at a double-DHCP issue setup the other day, hilarious issues occurred
[05:05] <veebull> I can switch to a terminal on Ctrl Alt F1 and reboot but it's just the same thing no matter what boot option I try
[05:06] <skyfall> OerHeks, familiar with powertop ?
[05:07] <OerHeks> skyfall, nope
[05:07] <daftykins> skyfall: just ask your next question as if someone said "hey sure! i know that ancient intel program!"
[05:08] <skyfall> daftykins, ancient intel program ?
[05:09] <daftykins> skyfall: ask the question
[05:09] <veebull> OerHeks: any ideas?
[05:09] <skyfall> any tips to improve the battery backup ?
[05:10] <vTwoRockman> hi, how i install virtualbox with all features in ubuntu?
[05:10] <daftykins> battery backup o0
[05:10] <cybrhuman> skyfall: battery backup?
[05:10] <skyfall> cybrhuman, yeah. laptop battery , as it is draining fast with ubuntu.
[05:10] <cybrhuman> skyfall: when you are taking backups please plug in the charger.
[05:11] <cybrhuman> skyfall: ah, battery time. kk, what applications does powertop report as using most effect?
[05:12] <skyfall> cybrhuman, i used to set all the values to good from bad.
[05:12] <cybrhuman> skyfall: what applications does powertop report as using most effect?
[05:13] <skyfall> cybrhuman, network interface and display backlight i think
[05:13] <cybrhuman> skyfall: have you reduced the backlight strength?
[05:14] <daftykins> skyfall: is it an old laptop?
[05:14] <skyfall> cybrhuman, you mean reduce the brightness ?
[05:14] <cybrhuman> skyfall: yes
[05:14] <skyfall> daftykins, no its asus k53sc
[05:15] <skyfall> cybrhuman, yes. its set to the lowest.
[05:15] <daftykins> a model doesn't denote age :)
[05:15] <skyfall> cybrhuman, daftykins if i use a lan cable instead of wifi , will it give me some more time ?
[05:16] <daftykins> depends what you use your laptop for
[05:16] <daftykins> lots of media streaming? yes
[05:16] <daftykins> just chat? not really
[05:16] <daftykins> probably not very significant values for either though
[05:16] <skyfall> daftykins, mainly i browse and chat. streaming is less
[05:17] <skyfall> daftykins, is it possible for the modem to control both settings at the same time ? i mean im using pppoe settings for wifi. so if i plug in my cable, will i be able to get it connected ?
[05:18] <cybrhuman> networkmanager usually handles changing from wireless to wired gracefully
[05:18] <daftykins> you shouldn't need to PPPoE auth an internet connection if you have a router providing wifi.
[05:19] <skyfall> daftykins, so which one shoud i use ?
[05:19] <cybrhuman> skyfall: use the most convenient
[05:19] <skyfall> cybrhuman, network manager  ?
[05:19] <cybrhuman> skyfall: magic program that makes network work.
[05:19] <skyfall> cybrhuman, you are saying that wired or wifi wont make much difference ?
[05:20] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: your skype ok now?
[05:20] <cybrhuman> skyfall: correct, what is the third and fourth programs by power consumption?
[05:20] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, no. even if i run the skype, its getting freezed.
[05:20] <skyfall> like while using it. so i moved to hangouts.
[05:20] <daftykins> skyfall: nvidia optimus machine huh?
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: go back to 14.04 make your life easy
[05:21] <daftykins> i3, i5 or i7?
[05:21] <skyfall> daftykins, yes.
[05:21] <k0nichiwa> id like to create instructions that has an image and then text to the side with arrows pointing to parts of the image
[05:21] <skyfall> daftykins, i5.
[05:21] <k0nichiwa> is there software that will make this easier ?
[05:21] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, i experienced same problem with 14.04 also
[05:21] <daftykins> skyfall: got something installed to disable the nvidia chip then, to save power?
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> k0nichiwa: flowcharts?
[05:21] <skyfall> daftykins, yes. bumblebee
[05:21] <k0nichiwa> thx ill google it, more suggestions the better
[05:22] <k0nichiwa> altho its not really a flowchart but maybe that woudl work
[05:22] <skl> hello
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> k0nichiwa: there are some flowchart software for ubuntu, and online flowchart creators too
[05:22] <skl> how about ganttchart? is there any?
[05:22] <skyfall> cybrhuman, third one is radio device and the fourth one is powertop
[05:23] <k0nichiwa> actually a script for gimp that helps to make an arrow woudl be better
[05:24] <k0nichiwa> where u put in the starting and ending points, preferably if u coudl bend it ... i doubt there is sucha ting
[05:24] <skyfall> daftykins, bubmblebee is doing the work i hope. the device is not getting warmer as earlier. as battery time is kind of more after installing it.
[05:25] <lotuspsychje> k0nichiwa: thats a flowchart you need
[05:25] <daftykins> skyfall: yeah, i don't you'd ever see as good battery life as Windows on that thing.
[05:25] <daftykins> skyfall: i have a very similar Asus laptop, mine caps the i5 to 60% usage to prevent battery murdering
[05:25] <daftykins> (under Windows)
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> k0nichiwa: gliffy.com
[05:26] <cybrhuman> skyfall: and powertop is usually never using much resources. seems you machine should be more or less optimal
[05:26] <skyfall> daftykins, so any more methods to improve the battery backup ?
[05:27] <skyfall> cybrhuman, in tunables majority is bad. making it good makes any differnce ?
[05:27] <daftykins> skyfall: besides install Windows? nope. though if as hinted above you moved to 14.10, you should probably go back, chasing updates and going off an LTS release seems a bad idea
[05:27] <skyfall> cybrhuman, i used to do it every time i log in.
[05:27] <cybrhuman> skyfall: probably should, but you should find a way to make the changes permanent instead of manually doing it.
[05:27] <daftykins> i'm sure i read about a package for ubuntu called laptop-mode-tools or similar
[05:28] <cybrhuman> skyfall: have you set your machine to a sensible power policy?
[05:28] <skyfall> daftykins, im dual booting windows with ubuntu. im using windows only for some work related softwares. im a linux addict though
[05:28] <daftykins> that's nice, i prefer results over OS wars though :)
[05:28] <skyfall> cybrhuman, i didn get what u meant by sensible power policy
[05:29] <cybrhuman> skyfall: how it controls cpu frequency and such.
[05:29] <skyfall> cybrhuman, no. can u explain it for me ?
[05:29] <Yukitteru> It.. Set the max res as 1600x1200..
[05:29] <Yukitteru> Wtf kUbuntu
[05:30] <cybrhuman> skyfall: not really, I don't actually know how to change it manually
[05:30] <skyfall> daftykins, i have another problem too. besides grub2 , im facing another bootloader screen in the main. any way to remove that. i want only the grub2
[05:30] <daftykins> 'in the main' ?
[05:31] <skyfall> daftykins, while booting i face a boot loader option in black screen and even after i select linux in it , grub2 appears
[05:32] <daftykins> no idea what that's from.
[05:32] <skyfall> i think its coming from the windows part.
[05:33] <skyfall> daftykins, i used to dual boot windows 8 and windows 7 at the timw windows 8 released
[05:33] <skyfall> so after i removed 8, it getting showed even though only windows 7 was there to boot
[05:34] <skyfall> cybrhuman, any idea ?
[05:34] <daftykins> update 7's bootloader
[05:34] <daftykins> which'll be a great question for... ##windows
[05:35] <cybrhuman> skyfall: about the second boot loader? if you installed a windows after linux I guess it is that.
[05:35] <skyfall> cybrhuman, second boot loader is grub2. first one is in a black screen
[05:35] <skyfall> cybrhuman, i installed linux after windows.
[05:36] <skyfall> daftykins, any idea how to update win 7 boot loader ?
[05:36] <dcndrew> Hey! have you ever find this bug? I'm using Genius SM-Live Value 5.1 (CMI8738) and in stereo output there is no sound. Pavucontrol shows there is, but I hear nothing. Mono or 4.0 or higher are sound, but 4.0 or higher there is no mic. With the 3.13.0-39 id doesn't work, but with -32 it does.
[05:36] <dcndrew> -sound + good
[05:36] <skyfall> daftykins, its really annoying to select twice the boot option.
[05:36] <daftykins> skyfall: what did i just say?
[05:37] <skyfall> daftykins, update 7's boot loader
[05:37] <daftykins> after that...
[05:37] <skyfall> daftykins, windows problem /
[05:37] <skyfall> ?
[05:37] <daftykins> yus, ask in ##windows
[05:38] <skyfall> daftykins, im not into windows actually. so if i can do it from linux side too im happy though
[05:38] <skyfall> daftykins, thats why i asked for an answer.
[05:38] <daftykins> i'm telling you it's a windows support question
[05:38] <shlant> can anyone tell me how to get the MOTD to update on 14.04? I have cleaned out /etc/update-motd.d/ and put my own
[05:39] <skyfall> daftykins, ok. i understand. any channel for windows support ? i need this to get fixed
[05:39] <cybrhuman> try ##windows as suggested?
[05:39] <skyfall> cybrhuman, ok.
[05:40] <daftykins> *facepalm*
[05:40] <Rescis> Any willing to help with something?  I've confused myself :P
[05:40] <daftykins> Rescis: you have to ask the channel a question first.

[05:40] <Rescis> I can't isntall steam, via the web, or the software center
[05:40] <agent_white> "Don't ask to ask, ask!"
[05:40] <Rescis> It simply does not open
[05:41] <agent_white> Rescis: How did you install it? What do you mean you "can't open it" ? What happens? etc.
[05:41] <Rescis> Nothing happens.  It will just act as if I hadn't clicked on the icon (Or the folder, etc)
[05:41] <AlbertEinster> read?
[05:41] <agent_white> Rescis: Open a terminal. Type `steam`. What is in the output?
[05:42] <Rescis> It tells me to install more packages.  I've done this, and it goes in an endless loop of intsalling the same packages
[05:43] <shlant> Rescis: try this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve
[05:43] <daftykins> take their names and install them manually, maybe they're not on
[05:43] <shlant> or #ubuntu-steam
[05:43] <Rescis> Sure
[05:43] <lotuspsychje> Rescis: ubuntu version?
[05:43] <Rescis> I'll see if it works
[05:43] <agent_white> Rescis: Also... instead of telling us what it does, give it to use verbose. -- Copy and paste the output to pastie.org, then give us that link.
[05:43] <Rescis> 14.04 lts
[05:44] <Rescis> Sounds good, sorry about that
[05:44] <Rescis> One second
[05:44] <agent_white> Rescis: No worries! The output of the error will help us the best.

[05:46] <daftykins> AlbertEinster: no thanks
[05:46] <Rescis> Umm, it isn;t letting me copy/paste
[05:46] <cybrhuman> how do I find which packages provide a file?
[05:47] <daftykins> cybrhuman: you can use apt-file
[05:47] <AlbertEinster> daftykins:Fuckyou!! 3:)
[05:47] <cybrhuman> Rescis: right click and select copy
[05:47] <daftykins> charming fellow
[05:48] <Rescis> Some day's I am thicker than others:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8999482/
[05:49] <cybrhuman> Rescis: the terminals interpret Ctrl-c differently than other programs
[05:49] <Rescis> Ya.  I jsut went up into the top task bar
[05:50] <cybrhuman> Rescis: they read ctrl-c as a keyboard interrupt.
[05:50] <Rescis> Ys, I noticed that.  It would insert "c^"
[05:50] <Rescis> instead of copying
[05:51] <cryptodan> what is this about ---------> ...............................i.nb.4...y.o..u....ha.ve..a cra.p .pas..swo.r..d..Password..........................................
[05:51] <Rescis> The paste should be there though, if you want
[05:51] <Rescis> That was me typing in my password for the command to run
[05:52] <cybrhuman> Rescis: useful to be aware of btw, as it stops most programs running in a terminal from executing.
[05:52] <Rescis> ?
[05:52] <cybrhuman> ctrl-c
[05:52] <Rescis> Ahh, ya
[05:52] <Rescis> Thanks
[05:53] <Rescis> Any idea what is stopping it though?
[05:53] <cryptodan> try not typing in the crap password stuff
[05:53] <Rescis> I've done that, though I can again if you want
[05:53] <cryptodan> and at the end hit y
[05:54] <cryptodan> and where did you get steam from?
[05:54] <Rescis> Software center, second one down
[05:54] <Rescis> the one with like 160 reviews
[05:54] <cryptodan> get it from www.steampowered.com
[05:54] <daftykins> winword
[05:55] <Rescis> I've also done ti that way
[05:55] <Rescis> *it
[05:55] <daftykins> oops. window focus fail.
[05:55] <cryptodan> once its downloaded you sudo dpkg -i steam_latest.deb
[05:55] <Rescis> Shall I uninstall this version?
[05:55] <cryptodan> if that fails then your ubuntu installation is broken
[05:56] <Rescis> Well, it is doing soemthing new.
[05:56] <Rescis> I probably did something wrong ealier, I'll see if thsi pans out
[05:59] <Rescis> Alright, I officially did it worng last 3 times
[05:59] <Rescis> It works now
[05:59] <Rescis> thanks for the help :)
[05:59] <agent_white> \o/
[05:59] <agent_white> Rescis: We appreciate you taking the time to paste your error.
[05:59] <cybrhuman> who had a question about motd?
[06:00] <Rescis> Haha, of course.  Following instructions is one of the things I am half decent at
[06:03] <Rescis> Alright, cya all.  I do appreciate the help, even if it was boring for you guys
[06:03] <cybrhuman> agent_white: is there a not up to date steam package in ubuntu repos?

[06:14] <guardianpwr08> 0/ evening all... trying to get ts3 server to work correctly with ubuntu 14.04... im trying the "ldd libts3db_mysql.so" and it returns "not a dynamic executable"
[06:14] <catacost> Hi, I just had a software update come in which asked me to reboot. Upon doing so I'm now presented a series of monitor test patterns. I can startx from a tty which presents my wallpaper and cursor
[06:15] <daftykins> guardianpwr08: that's a library, not a binary
[06:15] <EriC^^> catacost: don't use startx, sudo service lightdm restart
[06:15] <catacost> I believe I tried that - will try again and provide result
[06:15] <guardianpwr08> daftykins: yes, but according to these instructions - http://forum.teamspeak.com/showthread.php/74883-TUTORIAL-Teamspeak3-Server-w-MySQL-Databse-on-Debian-Ubuntu - it should return a list of libraries
[06:15] <catacost> job failed to start EriC^^ - which log should i check?
[06:16] <EriC^^> /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log
[06:17] <EriC^^> try other .log files there
[06:17] <linux> SLEEP
[06:17] <cybrhuman> daftykins: ldd usually works on libraries
[06:17] <daftykins> ah ok
[06:17] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: run file on the file
[06:18] <catacost> Complaining about a null x server but.. yeah. I recently (tonight) changed my username, could be related?
[06:19] <EriC^^> catacost: what do you mean by changed your username?
[06:19] <Scrubby> #coffeesh0p
[06:19] <catacost> usermod
[06:19] <catacost> I feel like thats probably related.
[06:19] <cybrhuman> catacost: try making a new user and log in with that
[06:19] <EriC^^> catacost: did you fix the permissions
[06:20] <EriC^^> try chown -R <user>: /home/<user>
[06:20] <guardianpwr08> cybrhuman: # file libts3db_mysql.so
[06:20] <guardianpwr08> libts3db_mysql.so: HTML document, UTF-8 Unicode text, with very long lines
[06:21] <guardianpwr08> i copied that .so from a working server
[06:21] <catacost> permissions change on home didnt fix it, ill try a new user, that seems like a good next step
[06:21] <EriC^^> catacost: did you use sudo with chmod?
[06:22] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: something went wrong, you ended up copying an html page
[06:22] <catacost> i did EriC^^
[06:22] <EriC^^> catacost: ok, try the guest account i guess
[06:24] <guardianpwr08> cybrhuman: must have been when i moved trh file from dropbox over, did it too early... ill try again now

[06:27] <Jeeves_Moss> I'm having some issues with ProFTPd.  I can't get it to let a user log in.  I keep getting invalid pass.  I've copy/paste the user AND pass.  How do I track this down?
[06:28] <catacost> I see some authorization errors, a couple permission deined's
[06:28] <catacost> is reinstalling Unity an option?
[06:28] <EriC^^> yes, ubuntu-desktop is unity
[06:28] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: strange, it might be a file generated and manipulated by the TS3 install process
[06:29] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: why don't you just run the normal install process for ts3?
[06:29] <guardianpwr08> because for linking ts3 with a forum database you need to have mysql
[06:29] <guardianpwr08> i have this running on a number of other ubuntu installs, but this one is a godaddy VPS and im concerned they "did something" to the install
[06:29] <guardianpwr08> as irrational as that might be, but it took a lot of phone calls to even get root access
[06:29] <daftykins> ask them
[06:30] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: can't you just repeat the isntall process you did on the other boxes?
[06:31] <guardianpwr08> this is the exact instructions i used - http://forum.teamspeak.com/showthread.php/74883-TUTORIAL-Teamspeak3-Server-w-MySQL-Databse-on-Debian-Ubuntu
[06:31] <guardianpwr08> why doesnt ldd give a list of libraries?
[06:31] <PeterA> I'm trying to get screen rotation working
[06:31] <PeterA> But i'm stuck
[06:32] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: and that process did not work on this server?

[06:33] <msgol> i cant help you with that, i just hope your password is not Really "Password"
[06:33] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: what does the install process for ts3 say?
[06:34] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: what error does it give when you end up with that state?
[06:34] <guardianpwr08> "# ldd libts3db_mysql.so" should list out libraries
[06:35] <guardianpwr08> the tutorial shows this https://privatepaste.com/41179818ae
[06:35] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: yes it should, but the install process apparantly didn't work, what did the installer say?
[06:36] <guardianpwr08> i can load up the server IF i dont point it to the mysql lin

[06:45] <daftykins> user obviously
[06:45] <cybrhuman> JRBerrios45: try /j #linuxjournal
[06:46] <daftykins> that's the whole point of the security design
[06:46] <JRBerrios45> ok thanks
[06:47] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: did you install the client?
[06:48] <guardianpwr08> trying to find the right "package"? to install
[06:48] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: aptitude search mysqlclient
[06:49] <PeterA> |aaron: is your ubuntu user a member of the "samba" group?
[06:50] <|aaron> PeterA: ahhhh probably not. thats needed even though im mounting with sudo?
[06:50] <guardianpwr08> ok found the correct libmysqlclient15-dev  i think
[06:50] <PeterA> I believe so, because you're still you, just with elevated permissions
[06:50] <PeterA> Try adding yourself to the group
[06:50] <guardianpwr08> # apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev => libmysqlclient-dev is already the newest version.
[06:50] <guardianpwr08> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:50] <guardianpwr08> so its already installed
[06:50] <|aaron> PeterA: actually the samba group doesnt even exist
[06:50] <PeterA> sudo groupadd samba
[06:51] <PeterA>  sudo adduser user samba
[06:51] <|aaron> PeterA: there is a sambasahre group? maybe that one?
[06:51] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: try the aptitude command to list other packages that might be available
[06:51] <PeterA> |aaron: try creating the group with "sudo groupadd samba" then add yourself with "sudo adduser user samba"
[06:51] <|aaron> PeterA: ok thanks!
[06:52] <catacost> Still booting to test patern, lightdm wont start. Changed username back to original just incase that had something to do w/ it.

[06:53] <|aaron> PeterA: that worked!!! thank you!
[06:53] <PeterA> |aaron: You're welcome:)
[06:53] <catacost> I've also tried reinstalling lightdm
[06:53] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: file reported libts3 as a 32 bit library? you might need the i386 package
[06:54] <edition> using grep, How do I get the degree value from 'acpi -t' (which produces "... 50 degrees C").
[06:55] <cybrhuman> edition: why does it have to be grep?
[06:55] <guardianpwr08> installed the i386, same problem
[06:55] <PeterA> Anybody know how I can set up screen rotation on the thinkpad yoga s1?
[06:55] <edition> cybrhuman, should I use awk?
[06:56] <cybrhuman> edition: the point is getting the number, not the program used for it, right?
[06:56] <Ben64> catacost: pastebin "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
[06:56] <edition> yes. Just the number.
[06:56] <catacost> all 0's Ben64
[06:56] <cybrhuman> guardianpwr08: then I am running out of tricks.
[06:56] <Ben64> catacost: reinstall ubuntu
[06:56] <guardianpwr08> ty for trying :(
[06:56] <edition> its output is intended for measuring CPU temp, over time.
[06:57] <catacost> It's been running fine for months, some update came in tonight and hosed it.
[06:57] <Ben64> catacost: well if apt-get returns nothing but "0" then you need to reinstall
[06:58] <mircx1> Hello i need please help about something if i take file and i make all files with Zip how i make this files working in   files to 64 bit windows 7
[06:58] <cybrhuman> edition: yes, I grasp that, I am trying to find a solution as we speak.
[06:58] <catacost> Ben64: when I said all 0's, I meant it was 0 for upgraded, newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:58] <Ben64> catacost: not the point, can you pastebin it anyway
[06:58] <catacost> im stuck in a tty shell, so not easily
[06:59] <Ben64> then use pastebinit
[06:59] <TTN> hey guys. So I forgot my password to my encrypted home folder on my old laptop. yep. i know. :( but. I think I may have a chance bruteforcing it with what shreds I know of the password. I need to first get a hash from the .Private folder I'm guessing?
[06:59] <PeterA> mircx1: what are you trying to do exactly? Transfer files to another computer? Transfer files between a windows partition and an ubuntu partition on the same computer?
[07:00] <mircx1> no no
[07:00] <catacost> Something else I noticed that happened - it used to be a purple loading screen before the login screen appeared, now it's purple but then it turns black with  yellow dots, new behavior.
[07:00] <mircx1> listen if i take folder from ubuntu
[07:00] <mircx1> and i make her zip ok
[07:00] <mircx1> and when i download this zip in ubuntu
[07:00] <mircx1> i see message this files work in 64 bit
[07:00] <mircx1> and i have in windows 7 64 bit
[07:01] <catacost> I just checked the nvidia-prime log and it says Sorry but your hardware configuration is not supported.
[07:01] <catacost> related?
[07:01] <Ben64> mircx1: i'm not understanding what you're saying at all. can you take a bit more time and explain it fully and clearly in one line?
[07:02] <mircx1> ben if i take folder in ubuntu ok?
[07:02] <mircx1> and i make the folder with files Zip
[07:02] <Ben64> mircx1: that makes no sense
[07:02] <PeterA> Wonder if mircx1 means compress the folder?
[07:02] <mircx1> yes
[07:03] <Ben64> mircx1: what is your native language?
[07:03] <mircx1> from cmpress
[07:03] <mircx1> how i can change this?
[07:03] <daftykins> mircx1: what language do you speak?
[07:03] <PeterA> Right click > extract here
[07:04] <PeterA> Will convert a .zip back into a folder
[07:04] <mircx1> english
[07:04] <daftykins> no, i mean normally
[07:04] <daftykins> ugh nevermind
[07:04] <cybrhuman> edition: acpi -t|gawk '{print $4}'
[07:04] <edition> thanks, cybrhuman. I was about to go through the acpi program source code.
[07:05] <cybrhuman> edition: I just had to refresh my string reading skills first :P
[07:07] <PeterA> mircx1: You have a .zip, and you want a regular folder?
[07:10] <PeterA> Any help setting up screen rotation? Stackexchange didn't get any responses, and I can't find anything relevant online
[07:11] <mircx1> yes
[07:11] <cybrhuman> PeterA: can you rotate screen manually?
[07:11] <dsnyders> How is it that the ls command does not have the ability to list directories?
[07:11] <PeterA> I can rotate it in system settings, yes
[07:11] <daftykins> dsnyders: lol. of course it does
[07:11] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: what you mean?
[07:11] <cybrhuman> PeterA: you just want it to be automatic based on gravity, right
[07:12] <PeterA> cybrhuman: yes
[07:12] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: I mean like the dir /a:d command in DOS
[07:12] <cybrhuman> PeterA: which DE you using? unity?
[07:12] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: ls directoryname works
[07:12] <PeterA> mircx1: and this folder is in ubuntu?
[07:12] <PeterA> cybrhuman: Unity, 14.04 lts
[07:13] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: No.  That lists the contents of directoryname
[07:13] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: yes, which is what you asked for, listing directories.
[07:13] <PeterA> cyberhuman: lsusb returns 0483:91d1 STMicroelectronics as my accelerometer
[07:13] <PeterA> but none of the search results for that are helpful
[07:14] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: How do I list what directories are in /home/dsnyders?
[07:14] <mircx1> after i install anope in my home i want take the folder and make zip for used in windows
[07:15] <PeterA> dsnyders: "cd /home/dsnyders" then "ls" doesn't work?
[07:15] <daftykins> you can't use a Linux program in Windows...?
[07:15] <dsnyders> PeterA: Of course not.  It shows both directories and files.
[07:15] <daftykins> PeterA cybrhuman - pretty sure dsnyders is after a command to list *only* the directories in a given path
[07:15] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: do you want to exclude files?
[07:16] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: Actually I want to vent that ls can't list just the directories.
[07:17] <cybrhuman> sounds like exluding files, yes?
[07:17] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: yes.
[07:17] <cybrhuman> \ls -F dirname |grep /|column
[07:17] <ubuntu> hai
[07:18] <daftykins> dsnyders: maybe it would be more effective contacting the author :P
[07:19] <cybrhuman> PeterA: I do not know to do that, because it would require some kind of module to be added to unity which listens to the gravity sensor.
[07:19] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: try the command I used, it should work.
[07:20] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: I know there are all kinds of workarounds.  What I want to know is why in the 50+ years (or whatever) that ls has been around has this deficiency not been addressed?
[07:20] <PeterA> dsnyders: http://superuser.com/questions/344877/ls-d-is-not-displaying-directories-is-there-a-way-to-get-ls-to-only-display-di
[07:21] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: because most people just make the command I put forth? and it is not like it is that detrimental
[07:22] <PeterA> cyberhuman: Yeah, I know
[07:22] <PeterA> cyberhuman: that it would require a bunch of work, that is
[07:22] <cheaky> is this a good place to ask a question
[07:22] <PeterA> I was just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction
[07:25] <cybrhuman> PeterA: http://www.ceh-photo.de/blog/?p=186 a bit outdated, but might still hold interesting info
[07:25] <PeterA> cheaky: Sure. Can we answer it? No promises
[07:26] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: Well, Like I said.  I just wanted to vent.  PeterA gave me a website that might point to an answer.  However, tacking on a character and then filtering via grep seems like something that should be built in.  After all, ls colors the directories without extra piping and filtering.
[07:28] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: fair point.
[07:29] <hateball> dsnyders: to be fair, ls in ubuntu is by default aliased. "ls --color=auto"
[07:30] <vvinothkumar> can somebody tell me which lib takes care of dialling modem dongle using AT commands?
[07:30] <cybrhuman> hateball: doesn't change the fact that it does the colouring by itself
[07:31] <hateball> cybrhuman: no, that's true I suppose
[07:32] <dsnyders> hateball: cybrhuman: ls also has smarts enough to tack a slash on the ls -F output, or tag the entry with a d in the ls -l output.
[07:33] <cybrhuman> I kinda like that I can and must fix small things myself, but I might be a special kind of user :P
[07:34] <edition> could someone check my code? http://www.pasteall.org/55150/bash
[07:34] <agent_white> If I can't find a solution, I am not googling it well enough or explaining it in IRC well enough :)
[07:34] <cybrhuman> haha! I got colour output of only the directories :D ls -d $(ls -F|grep /) --color
[07:34] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: ls -e isn't being used.  How about ls -e:f to exclude files and ls -e:d to exclude directories?
[07:35] <PeterA> cybrhuman: That looks interesting
[07:35] <PeterA> cybrhuman: It doesn't work as is
[07:35] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: you will have to write it yourself, but it will be interesting.
[07:35] <PeterA> But I might be able to make it work
[07:35] <cybrhuman> PeterA: no, that is for a specific gyro
[07:36] <cybrhuman> PeterA: I hope you will
[07:36] <cybrhuman> dsnyders: time to learn to code in C :D
[07:36] <agent_white> `find . -type d` ?
[07:36] <edition> is there graph generators for bash?
[07:36] <PeterA> cybrhuman: I've just got to find drivers for the accelerometer
[07:36] <agent_white> edition: What is there to check with your code?
[07:36] <cybrhuman> agent_white: that is recursive.
[07:37] <PeterA> Which don't exists
[07:37] <dsnyders> cybrhuman: It's been about 25 years.  Nothing's changed, right?
[07:37] <edition> agent_white, any improvements, or anything that requires editing...
[07:37] <edition> I am a beginner with bash
[07:37] <agent_white> cybrhuman: Fair enough! `find . -type d -maxdepth 0` :)
[07:38] <nader> Hi
[07:38] <nader> Hi
[07:38] <nader> salam
[07:39] <nader> kasi hast
[07:39] <nader> :D
[07:39] <agent_white> cybrhuman: I lied... `find /some/path/here/ -maxdepth 1 -type d`
[07:39] <cybrhuman> agent_white: my command colourizes the output!
[07:39] <agent_white> Need maxdepth before type..
[07:39] <agent_white> cybrhuman: I like your command more :)
[07:39] <edition> found an error at line 10: "syntax error near unexpected token 'else'"
[07:39] <cybrhuman> agent_white: I also like mine better, but I learnt a new option to find, thanks!
[07:40] <nader> hoooyyy
[07:40] <nader> konkeshaaa
[07:40] <nader> :D
[07:40] <nader> chera javab nemidin
[07:40] <nader> :D
[07:40] <edition> nader, whats your question?
[07:40] <agent_white> edition: Looks fine to me :)
[07:40] <edition> thanks, But the bash interpreter is reporting a syntax error at line 10.
[07:41] <nader> edition no questtion :D
[07:43] <edition> should I integrate the 'start_log' function?
[07:47] <Error> error
[07:47] <agent_white> edition: Remove the parens from your function call.
[07:47] <edition> :)
[07:47] <agent_white> edition: "start_log()" to "start_log"
[07:47] <agent_white> :)
[07:47] <edition> thanks!
[07:48] <agent_white> edition: No thank you! Learned a bit about bash's conditionals.
[07:48] <edition> all I need is a job.
[07:48] <agent_white> Me too. One that is not making pizzas.
[07:48] <javnut> I need ubuntu to click a location on the screen every minute or so
[07:49] <edition> agent_white, continue on #ubuntu-chat?
[07:49] <agent_white> edition: Joining now!
[07:51] <agent_white> javnut: What location and why?
[07:52] <javnut> for automating game stuff, and I don't know the location yet (going to have to find x,y coordinates)
[07:53] <javnut> it's actually 2 locations I have to click 1 after the other
[07:53] <EsoRotica> !xmacro
[07:54] <agent_white> ^^
[07:54] <cybrhuman> javnut: xdotool
[07:55] <Blaster> Hey for some reason I can't write to my USB drive, it says the device is read only.  How do I fix that?
[07:55] <javnut> I'll go with that one, it's rated higher
[07:56] <Ben64> Blaster: give us some information first, filesystem, mount point, mount options, anything else relevant
[07:56] <dsnyders> Blaster, usually that means that the USB drive is pooched.
[07:56] <Blaster> How do ya figure?
[07:57] <Blaster> Nothing in my fstab for that USB key.
[07:57] <Ben64> type "mount" to get that data
[07:57] <Blaster> /dev/sdc1 on /media/redstar/UNTITLED type vfat (rw,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks2)
[07:58] <Ben64> ok so the user "redstar" should have write access
[07:58] <Blaster> Ben64, that's me, and nope.
[07:58] <Ben64> pastebin the output of "dmesg"
[07:59] <agent_white> pastie! Pastebin wastes bandwidith and has ads.
[07:59] <Ben64> meh
[07:59] <Blaster> What's this dmesg stuff?  Looks interesting.
[07:59] <cfhowlett> fpaste.org
[07:59] <Blaster> LOL @ pastie... Your paste cannot be larger than 64 kb. Sorry.
[08:00] <EsoRotica> http://paste.ubuntu.com nabs
[08:00] <Blaster> That's because they don't serve ads and don't want to use bandwidth.
[08:00] <Blaster> http://pastebin.com/z4UQDggN
[08:01] <agent_white> If your paste is more than 64kb, you need to learn how to give relevant information.
[08:01] <agent_white> ;P
[08:01] <agent_white> Blaster: Also... `tail -f /var/log/dmesg` while pluggin in/unplugging your device.
[08:02] <Blaster> agent_white, nothing is outputting when I do that.
[08:02] <agent_white> Blaster: `tail -f /var/log/{messages,kernel,dmesg,syslog}`
[08:02] <Blaster> That aggregates the output of all those files? That's cool.
[08:03] <Blaster> Nov 14 00:02:56 redstar-PC kernel: [  515.277120] FAT-fs (sdc1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
[08:03] <agent_white> Hooray!
[08:04] <Blaster> agent_white, so I just need to unmount it somehow? I'm reading about fsck but I've never had to use it.
[08:04] <agent_white> `fsck -a /dev/path/to/your/usb`
[08:04] <Blaster> Also here's the contents of my /etc/fstab.  Could these be interfering? I didn't even add them and don't know what they are. http://pastebin.com/81rf0mwV
[08:04] <agent_white> -a for autofixing so you don't have to stare at prompts.
[08:05] <agent_white> Blaster: `lsblk` as well.
[08:05] <Blaster> I think my data is lost now.
[08:05] <dsnyders> Blaster, what kind and size of drive is it?
[08:05] <Blaster> The USB drive's directory is full of a bunch of FSCK0001.REC files.
[08:06] <Blaster> Kingston data traveller 4gb.
[08:06] <Blaster> I'm not too concerned about the data.
[08:07] <Blaster> How can I wipe it clean now?
[08:07] <Blaster> Ah still read only even after fsck.
[08:07] <Blaster> Did I just witness the death of a USB drive?
[08:09] <EsoRotica> remount ><
[08:09] <agent_white> Blaster: If you want to wipe it clean, look into using `dd`
[08:09] <Blaster> I used disk utility and formatted it.
[08:09] <Blaster> Still read only.
[08:12] <Blaster> Now my other drive says read only too. :|
[08:13] <Blaster> Can I safely remove all the contents of /etc/fstab?
[08:15] <EsoRotica> Blaster: Dont do that
[08:15] <agent_white> ^
[08:15] <Blaster> I can't figure out what the heck is going on here.
[08:15] <EsoRotica> Blaster: There are only two things listed there Blaster.. your swap parition and main parition
[08:15] <Blaster> I can't move data onto any of my external storage devices.  They all say read only.
[08:15] <EsoRotica> Why would that prompt you to remove your fstab tehn?
[08:16] <EsoRotica> Soon you'll have nothing to write to !
[08:16] <EsoRotica> Blaster, did you attempt to remount the USB since you formatted?
[08:16] <Blaster> I just rely on auto mount when I plug it in.
[08:16] <EsoRotica> Have you done that?
[08:16] <Blaster> It pops up on the Unity launcher.
[08:16] <Blaster> Yes.
[08:16] <EsoRotica> Still RO?
[08:17] <Blaster> 1
[08:17] <EsoRotica> mount still report it as rw?
[08:18] <Blaster> EsoRotica, mount reports: /dev/sdc1 on /media/redstar/89A9-1937 type vfat (rw,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks2)
[08:19] <Blaster> I used disk utility to format it .
[08:19] <Blaster> But all my drives say read only right now for some reason.
[08:19] <Blaster> External ones that is.
[08:20] <EsoRotica> sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdc1 /media/redstar/89a9-1937
[08:20] <EsoRotica> sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdc1 /media/redstar/89A9-1937
[08:20] <Blaster> Nothing seemed to happen.
[08:20] <Blaster> Same icon on the unity launcher.
[08:20] <EsoRotica> try writing?
[08:20] <Blaster> Still RO.
[08:21] <EsoRotica> messages in dmesg?
[08:21] <Blaster> [ 1437.619732] FAT-fs (sdc1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
[08:21] <Blaster> How could all my drives be suddenly fried?
[08:23] <Blaster> I don't recall being hit by an electromagnetic pulse recently.
[08:25] <xtpeeps> LoL. What's your time now,guys.....
[08:25] <agent_white> Blaster: What's going on now?
[08:25] <Blaster> Still can't get any storage devices plugged into that USB port to be writable.
[08:25] <Blaster> agent_white ^
[08:25] <cfhowlett> xtpeeps, what is your ubuntu support question
[08:26] <agent_white> Blaster: How about other ports?
[08:26] <Blaster> I don';t have any other ones.
[08:26] <Blaster> They're on the back of the computer.
[08:26] <Blaster> And my USB 3.0 ports on the front of the PC won't work for some reason.
[08:28] <dsnyders> Blaster, agent_white: Might this be one of those rare times when rebooting the computer would help?
[08:28] <agent_white> Blaster: Hm. Well you should run `udevadm monitor`, then attempt to plug-in/out the device on all the ports.
[08:28] <agent_white> dsnyders: Beats me, but worth a try!
[08:28] <Blaster> BRB!
[08:28] <xtpeeps> I wanna use win in Ubuntu, to play League of  legends... is it reliable?
[08:29] <cfhowlett> !wine | xtpeeps,
[08:29] <cfhowlett> xtpeeps, see the wind links for details
[08:29] <cfhowlett> *wine*
[08:29] <Blaster> Back.
[08:29] <Blaster> Well my other drive is writable now thankfully.
[08:30] <dsnyders> xtpeeps: Another option would be to set up a virtual machine and run windows within it.
[08:30] <Blaster> I'm not supposed to eject these drives am I?
[08:30] <Blaster> Before removing them?
[08:30] <dsnyders> Blaster, Always do a safely remove.
[08:30] <agent_white> Blaster: If you mount them manually (from a command line), you should definitely unmount them.
[08:30] <Blaster> All drives are writable now.
[08:30] <cybrhuman> xtpeeps: uhm, I haven't had much luck with LoL and wine, it was rather slow to load and low fps,
[08:31] <Blaster> Thanks dsnyders & agent_white.
[08:31] <dsnyders> Blaster, Glad it worked out for you.  You got the Datatraveller back too?
[08:33] <agent_white> Blaster: Good deal! :) What was the ultimate fix, if you pinpointed it?
[08:34] <xtpeeps> Okey.  Cyrhuman,THX  guys all the same!! Ao I have to play it in Windows ....and use Ubuntu to do some programs..
[08:40] <micc> test
[08:41] <xtpeeps> How can I @someone in the room...
[08:41] <dsnyders> !pm
[08:41] <bubbasaures> !tab
[08:42] <agent_white> `sudo apt-get install bash-completion`
[08:42] <xtpeeps> Okey. Okey
[08:43] <xtpeeps> Do u know how to do the same on my andchat?Android
[08:44] <lifex> when open laptop lid after suspend (lid closed) screen still in black is this common problem?
[08:46] <bubbasaures> lifex, Can you trigger it back on?
[08:48] <xtpeeps> Thanks,ubottu, very kind of u;p
[08:50] <dsnyders> lifex, On my machine, when I wake it from sleeping, it sometimes gets "stuck" on a black screen.  If I ctrl-alt-F1 to get to a terminal, I can log in.  When I run htop, I find that one of two programs is taking up 40+% of my cpu.  If I kill that program, and ctrl-alt-F8 back to my desktop, all is well.
[08:50] <Blaster> dsnyders, agent_white restarting seemed to fix everything including the data traveller.  Thanks guys have a good night.
[08:51] <mahler> Hey, does anybody know what's going on with the utopic package repository? I can't find any information about utopic packages from packages.ubuntu.com. For instance: http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic gives me some error message
[08:51] <dsnyders> Blaster, wonderful! Sleep well.
[08:51] <cfhowlett> mahler, been in that state for about 24 hours now --- someone at canonical/ubuntu will have to fix it.
[08:52] <lifex> bubbasaures: only solution i can is to power off
[08:53] <mahler> cfhowlett, can I assume that they're already doing everything they can? Or should I open a bug somewhere?
[08:53] <cfhowlett> mahler, I'd be shocked if there's not a bug already ...
[08:55] <bubbasaures> lifex, Not an area I'm real up on but what is the graphic hardware?
[08:56] <agent_white> dsnyders: Did you call that? The restart for the fix? :D Good man!
[08:57] <mahler> cfhowlett, Okay good to know I'm not crazy.
[08:57] <cfhowlett> mahler, well, I can't really speak to *that* ... :)
[08:58]  * ObrienDave refrains from getting snarky ;P
[08:59] <lifex> dsnyders: thanks, may be i could do the same way you did with ctrl-alt-F1, it's very handy, but if you didn't kill programs can you still ctrl-alt-F8 back to desktop?
[08:59] <dsnyders> agent_white: I've experienced similar symptoms before.  It "smelled" more like a hardware problem than a settings issue.
[09:01] <lifex> bubbasaures: system detail says that my graphic is AMD Radeon HD 8330
[09:02] <dsnyders> lifex: If I went back to the desktop, it would still be black, because those wretched programs (sensors,  and hw_clock) would still be chewing up all the CPU
[09:05] <bubbasaures> lifex, My guess is that hardware info is pertinent, I see issues on the web with nvidia and radeon hardware in this area is all.
[09:07] <dsnyders> agent_white: By hardware, I meant that the state of the hardware was, and what linux *thought* the state of the hardware was, were different.  It happens sometimes when plugging and unplugging USB devices in quick succession.
[09:11] <dsnyders> g'night all!
[09:18] <javnut> so wmctrl -s 1 doesn't work
[09:18] <javnut> is it a compiz thing?

[09:32] <siwica> I am trying to integrate git with emacs. Using Ubuntu I can only find a git-el package that contains "git.el" and "git-blame.el", however doesnt seem to ship "vc-git.el". Does anybody know in which package this file is located?
[09:33] <ObrienDave> !find | vc-get.el
[09:33] <ObrienDave> !info | vc-get.el
[09:33] <sacarlson> why would this website make firefox or it's plugin-con+ to use 100% of my cpu.  I also tried it on chrome and it wasn't much better with about 50% cpu usage then 120% at times http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/08/inside-googles-secret-drone-delivery-program/379306/
[09:34] <DJones> siwica: Doesn't look like its included in anything, just tried searching using packages.ubuntu.com
[09:34] <siwica> Hm, weird
[09:35] <sacarlson> when I killed plugin-con+ it seems it killed flash and the sub window disapeared.  but I assume chrome doesn't have or has flash built in
[09:36] <ObrienDave> siwica,  all i can find is http://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/centos0/ics-custom-build/BUILD/git-1.6.1/contrib/emacs/vc-git.el

[09:50] <Ranode> hi.. I have installed Google Chrome on  Ubuntu 12.04. I notice that the fonts appear abuot 20% bigger on Ubuntu compared to Windows.. (same font family and font size). Is this expected? Any way to solve the discrepancy?
[09:52] <ObrienDave> Ranode, make sure win and buntu are set to the same DPI. 96 is the default value

[10:30] <RahulAN> ObrienDave, How to find the member in there
[10:30] <astr> esp when I'm not having swap
[10:30] <cfhowlett> astr, you can (and should) direct the bootloader to the target of your choice
[10:30] <ObrienDave> RahulAN, no idea
[10:31] <astr> cfhowlett, I know, I'm just a paranoid when in comes to the GUI installer
[10:32] <cfhowlett> astr, noted.  take your time.  read the feedback, don't click anything unless until you've read.

[10:44] <SupaYoshi> Hi anyone experience with kpartx? I am using a kpartx to mount a raw image, and that goes great.
[10:44] <SupaYoshi> But I am unsure on how to umount it.
[10:45] <SupaYoshi> My command is this, } sudo kpartx -a -v /media/doslin/dos.raw and the verbosity output gives:
[10:45] <SupaYoshi> add map loop0p1 (254:2): 0 37736622 linear /dev/loop0 63
[10:45] <sacarlson> astr also if you don't want it to touch sda then including the mbr then you might want to change the boot order in bios since by default your bios will point to sda for mbr I would think
[10:46] <SupaYoshi> And then it is auto mounted in /media/MSDOS710
[10:46] <astr> sacarlson, thats np
[10:46] <SupaYoshi> which is the root of my system.
[10:46] <SupaYoshi> So im wondering how to umount it in case I want to add new files and stuff..
[10:47] <larsmw> Hi, I must have done something wrong, because now my screen-font is ultra tiny, almost unreadable! Any ideas what i might have clicked wrong? 14.04 LTS Unity
[10:48] <SupaYoshi> Because when mounted, it wont write new files immidetly
[10:56] <SupaYoshi> When I try to umount a kpartx partition I get the following error
[10:56] <SupaYoshi> remove ioctl failed device or resource busy
[10:57] <ObrienDave> larsmw, did you set DPI to 96?
[10:58] <ObrienDave> and what is the current icon font size?
[10:58] <larsmw> launcher iceons is 32px
[10:59] <larsmw> where do i set the dpi ?
[11:00] <ObrienDave> larsmw, not the icon size, the icon FONT size
[11:00] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: you might try add umount -f   but be sure you don't have any open files on it
[11:01] <SupaYoshi> sacarlson
[11:01] <SupaYoshi> umount the /dev/loop device or the /media/ device?
[11:01] <larsmw> ObrienDave, yeah, i must have,.. but I dont recall how or when! :-S
[11:01] <SupaYoshi> wont work
[11:01] <ObrienDave> larsmw, appearance, font, custom DPI setting
[11:02] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: I think it might work on both but what is seen with mount
[11:02] <SupaYoshi> a reboot is able to do it.
[11:02] <SupaYoshi> https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=734794
[11:02] <SupaYoshi> This seems to be near it
[11:02] <rashed> يوتيوب
[11:04] <larsmw> I cannot chenge the font size there...
[11:05] <server__> may i ask how i can create  a server using my linux
[11:05] <cfhowlett> !server | server__
[11:06] <ObrienDave> larsmw, yes you can set both icon font size and DPI
[11:06] <server__> i am using ubuntu studio
[11:06] <ObrienDave> there
[11:06] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: if you see that problem the note the work around I can reliably work around this bug by adding "sleep 2" before "kpartx -d".
[11:06] <SupaYoshi> I tried that
[11:06] <SupaYoshi> But it doesn't reconise sleep 2?
[11:07] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: in bash?
[11:07] <ObrienDave> larsmw, http://i.imgur.com/7fpU6Gt.png
[11:07] <SupaYoshi> i tried
[11:08] <SupaYoshi> sudo kpartx sleep 2 -d -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[11:08] <EriC^^> sleep 2 has to be before kpartx, with a &&
[11:08] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: oh ha ha,  no  you add sleep 2;  on another line to make it wait
[11:08] <EriC^^> sleep 2 && kpartx...
[11:08] <SupaYoshi> lol
[11:08] <SupaYoshi> so
[11:09] <larsmw> ObrienDave, http://imgur.com/xYyEBwW
[11:09] <SupaYoshi> sleep 2 && kpartx -d -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[11:09] <SupaYoshi> Thanks EriC^^?
[11:09] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: yeah you're good
[11:10] <larsmw> http://imgur.com/OSvrwaD
[11:10] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: the && would put it in the background and that's not what you want,  you need a delay after umount and kpartx
[11:10] <SupaYoshi> meh :(
[11:10] <EriC^^> sacarlson: no it wouldn't put it in the background
[11:10] <SupaYoshi> ./dev/mapper/control: open failed: permission denied.
[11:10] <SupaYoshi> Failture to communicate with kerel device-mapper-driver
[11:10] <EriC^^> it's an AND, it means if sleep 2 returns successful kpartx will run
[11:11] <SupaYoshi> sudo sleep 2 && kpartx -d -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[11:11] <ObrienDave> larsmw, second one is the hexchat font size. try desktop setings for DPI
[11:12] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: you need to put sudo before kpartx
[11:12] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: sleep 2 && sudo kpartx ...
[11:12] <SupaYoshi> ohhhh
[11:12] <SupaYoshi> >_< lawl
[11:12] <SupaYoshi> device or resource busy
[11:13] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9004067/
[11:13] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: so you did complete the umount ok?
[11:13] <SupaYoshi> no?
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> its still mounted? I guess?
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> wait
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> omg
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> i umount /media/MSDOS710
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> and now i did the sleep thing
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> works:)
[11:14] <SupaYoshi> lemme see if i can remount :D
[11:14] <sacarlson> yes
[11:15] <SupaYoshi> okay....
[11:15] <SupaYoshi> so?
[11:15] <SupaYoshi> It was umounted right? I guess
[11:15] <SupaYoshi> But when I boot ubuntu
[11:15] <SupaYoshi> and i type sudo kpartx -a -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[11:15] <SupaYoshi> It automounts it to /media/MSDOS710/
[11:16] <SupaYoshi> when i umount, and remount again with same command.
[11:16] <SupaYoshi> It does not mount to there?
[11:16] <SupaYoshi> So I still have to reboot lol
[11:16] <SupaYoshi> any idea?
[11:16] <SupaYoshi> does kpartx do a mount thing i dont see?
[11:17] <SupaYoshi> it mounts somethign to /media/doslin/MSDOS710
[11:17] <SupaYoshi> i suppose /dev/loop0
[11:18] <SupaYoshi> But ? How to mount that manually to /media/MSDOS710?
[11:18] <SupaYoshi> Any idea?
[11:18] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: it must if you see it it must auto mount.  maybe manualy umount and mount the loop device
[11:19] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi:  then you will have options as to where to mount it
[11:20] <from> :)
[11:20] <from> hi
[11:20] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: simply sudo umount /dev/loop0 ;  sudo mount /dev/loop0 /media/MSDOS710
[11:20] <from> whats the latest stable ubuntu desktop release?
[11:20] <from> for say R60 Samsung
[11:22] <cfhowlett> from, 14.10 or 14.04 for long term support
[11:22] <from> 14.04 is better?
[11:22] <SupaYoshi> can't read superblock
[11:22] <SupaYoshi> meh
[11:22] <cfhowlett> from, it's long term support
[11:22] <from> ty
[11:22] <from> got it
[11:23] <from> cfhowlett: can it fit on one CD R?
[11:23] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: might have to add the format type in the mount
[11:23] <from> I am  not sure if R60 can boot from dvd
[11:23] <SupaYoshi> k
[11:23] <cfhowlett> from, no.  lubuntu will fit on a cd
[11:23] <SupaYoshi> my question is however.
[11:23] <SupaYoshi> How can kpartx mount it automaticly succesfully. the first time
[11:24] <from> che757: I want ubuntu lol
[11:24] <SupaYoshi> and after that, even after unmounting it with sleep 2 && kpartx -d,
[11:24] <from> so what can I do?
[11:24] <SupaYoshi> not mount it succesfully again?
[11:24] <from> cfhowlett:
[11:24] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: I don't know, eather it got corrupted or sensed the format type
[11:24] <cfhowlett> !lubuntu | from
[11:24] <cfhowlett> from, do you have ubuntu installed at present?
[11:24] <ElysiumNet> it appears I have come across this dreaded error: Server refused to allocate pty. stdin: is not a tty
[11:25] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: since the format type is in the partition it will already know.  but if mounting a raw data it won't know and will try default for ext2 - 4
[11:25] <from> cfhowlett: windows
[11:25] <SupaYoshi> huh
[11:25] <cfhowlett> from, make a bootable USB
[11:26] <from> cfhowlett: I am not sure r60 can boot from usb
[11:26] <from> but I can check
[11:26] <from> lubuntu seems fine
[11:26] <SupaYoshi> i will do the full thing wait ;)
[11:26] <SupaYoshi> lolz.
[11:26] <SupaYoshi> in a pastebin
[11:26] <cfhowlett> from, lubuntu is optimized for older and lower specification hardware
[11:26] <cfhowlett> from xubuntu also likes such hardware
[11:27] <ElysiumNet> anyone would happen to know how to resolve this issue?
[11:27] <cfhowlett> !server | ElysiumNet
[11:27] <ElysiumNet> cfhowlett: the issue is that it used to work, and now suddendly stopped working
[11:27] <cfhowlett> ElysiumNet, ask the server channel
[11:27] <ElysiumNet> this is just for SSHing into the box :|
[11:28] <from> bye bye windows
[11:28] <from> hehehehe
[11:29] <from> i wonder if I can even migrate my work pc to linux
[11:29] <from> hmm
[11:30] <from> should be doable
[11:30] <cfhowlett> from, choose your apps: libreoffice, openoffice or kingsoft wps suite
[11:30] <from> I admit I love Excel
[11:30] <from> hehe
[11:31] <from> open office is okeyish
[11:31] <veebull> Any guesses as to why my regular user login hangs but I can still log into the guest desktop?
[11:31] <from> veebull: hangs like how/
[11:31] <cfhowlett> from, libreoffice is much better than OO imho
[11:31] <from> cfhowlett: and kingsoft?
[11:32] <cfhowlett> from, interesting place on the spectrum; wps is a linux clone of MS Office.  originated in China.
[11:32] <veebull> from: like it just shows the purple background with the logo and Anda mouse cursor
[11:32] <from> awesome!
[11:33] <cfhowlett> from, still actively developed, has a free and a paid enterprise version.  plus who knows how many millions of users.  actually quite a nice package.
[11:33] <sacarlson> veebull: is maybe the home encrypted?  I've also had unecrypted mess up with .config some how making X fail to start.  my workaround was to move the home and create an empty dir /home/user and try login again
[11:33] <veebull> I can switch to try and login as per normal there
[11:34] <from> cfhowlett: yes it looks cool
[11:34] <veebull> sacarlson: if it was an encryption problem I wouldn't be able to login from the command line would i?
[11:34] <from> moving to linux soon hehe
[11:34] <from> ty
[11:34] <EriC^^> veebull: is your home encrypted?
[11:35] <veebull> EriC^^: I believe so
[11:35] <EriC^^> veebull: try ctrl+alt+f1 login and DISPLAY=:0 ccsm
[11:35] <EriC^^> then press alt+f7 and check if unity plugin is enabled
[11:36] <EriC^^> veebull: try to reset compiz, dconf reset -f /org/compiz
[11:37] <veebull> Bear with me.... gotta install the settings manager
[11:37] <SupaYoshi> Hey
[11:37] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9004393/ made this.
[11:38] <veebull> EriC^^: it errored out with a GTKwarning: could not open display
[11:41] <EriC^^> veebull: did you login with lightdm first?
[11:41] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: does this even work?  sudo umount MSDOS710/   ;  you should us full path I think.  also as far as mount I think there must be a directory already created to allow it to mount
[11:41] <veebull> I should also add that everything had been working fine until I rebooted the machine Toni tell to log into Win7 (dual-boot).
[11:42] <SupaYoshi> EriC^^
[11:42] <SupaYoshi> can you look at my pastebin?
[11:42] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9004393/
[11:42] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: what about it?
[11:42] <veebull> EriC^^: I had logged out of the guest account to the login screen
[11:42] <veebull> Rebooting now
[11:43] <EriC^^> veebull: login to your user account
[11:43] <SupaYoshi> EriC^^, can you explain why it wont mount the second time?
[11:44] <veebull> EriC^^: ah. That works.   What am I looking for now?
[11:45] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: it's not mounting?
[11:45] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: I don't know why it mounted the first time but for me this won't work unless I have the directory ./tst sudo mount /dev/mapper/mint--vg-osx ./tst
[11:46] <SupaYoshi> Wait a second...
[11:46] <SupaYoshi> I have an idea.
[11:47] <SupaYoshi> It seems to be... that when I am not logged in on the actual desktop
[11:47] <EriC^^> veebull: unity plugin
[11:47] <SupaYoshi> It doesn't automount either.
[11:47] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: when it is mounted you should find out what format type it is.  it may be fat32 or ntfs or.....
[11:47] <SupaYoshi> But when I login on that it does mount automaticly.
[11:47] <veebull> Enable it?
[11:47] <veebull> Anything else?
[11:47] <SupaYoshi> sacarlson, it runs on dos. that uses fat32.
[11:47] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: ok then add that to the mount -t fat32
[11:48] <SupaYoshi> so..
[11:48] <SupaYoshi> mount /dev/loop0 -t fat32 /media/MSDOS710
[11:48] <SupaYoshi> ?
[11:49] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: ya I think so but be sure to sudo mkdir /media/MSDOS710 first
[11:49] <EriC^^> veebull: was it disabled?
[11:50] <veebull> It was un-checked.
[11:50] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: oh and I think your loop has a bigger name like /dev/loop0p1 or something
[11:50] <EriC^^> veebull: ok, that should do it then
[11:50] <EriC^^> veebull: sudo service lightdm restart
[11:50] <EriC^^> then login as usual
[11:50] <SupaYoshi> sacarlson, how do i see the loopname?
[11:50] <SupaYoshi> thnx man
[11:51] <veebull> When I clicked the check box it had to load three or four other things  (open gl, compiled toolbox, etc.)
[11:51] <SupaYoshi> Eric, it says it doesnt reconise the fileformat.
[11:51] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: no I think I was wrong it's just /dev/loop0 as it is maped
[11:51] <SupaYoshi> It's kind of funy that my OS is able to mount it somehow. anyway I can track what commands are being exectued
[11:52] <SupaYoshi> as soon as i run sudo kpartx -a -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[11:53] <ElysiumNet> cfhowlett: server channel appears to be dead
[11:53] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: I don't know I never used kpartx before
[11:53] <ElysiumNet> I've finally managed to ssh into the box, but I don't like the errors
[11:53] <cfhowlett> ElysiumNet, repost your question in this channel
[11:53] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9004643/
[11:53] <SupaYoshi> add map loop0p1 (254:2): 0 37736622 linear /dev/loop0 63
[11:53] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: why are you using umount? shouldn't kpartx handle that?
[11:54] <ElysiumNet> now the error is, after logging into with "/bin/bash -i" and executing an command that has user interaction available like htop or nano: Error opening terminal: unknown.
[11:54] <SupaYoshi> . /dev/loop0p1: does not exist?
[11:54] <veebull> EriC^^: no luck :(
[11:54] <SupaYoshi> Eric, because otherwise i got message busy.
[11:54] <SupaYoshi> But let me see that later.
[11:54] <SupaYoshi> first mount now
[11:54] <veebull> Same as before
[11:55] <ElysiumNet> and TERM is set to 'dumb', is it supposed to be set to that?
[11:56] <SupaYoshi> Eric
[11:56] <SupaYoshi> How do i track the commands that are being executed on my system?
[11:56] <mgolisch> track what commands?
[11:56] <SupaYoshi> I know that my file explorer somehow is able to mount it doing something
[11:56] <SupaYoshi> When I type sudo kpartx -a -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[11:56] <SupaYoshi> my file explorer automounts it in media
[11:56] <SupaYoshi> When I am just logged in over ssh that doesn't happen.
[11:57] <SupaYoshi> So I would like to know what my file explorer does to make it work.
[11:57] <mgolisch> SupaYoshi: look at the mount output?
[11:57] <SupaYoshi> mgolisch how?
[11:57] <ElysiumNet> isn't $TERM supposed to be xterm on normal server-distro installations?
[11:58] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: when I mount iso files I simply sudo mount -o loop example.iso /media/example
[11:58] <mgolisch> SupaYoshi: when its mounted, type mount in a terminal ?
[11:58] <Guest83126> Alguem que fale português ai rs
[11:58] <mgolisch> yeah maybe try having mount figure out the correct filesystem
[11:58] <tty1> hey guys.. just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu server 14.10 .. when it boots up it doesnt have any internet connectivity and the ifaces are all down (though during install it worked fine it seemed).. worse yet when i try to follow online documents to bringup an interface they all say to do "auto eth0" .. but there is no auto command on the server. Any ideas what I do?
[11:59] <cfhowlett> !pt | Guest83126,
[11:59] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9004688/
[11:59] <mgolisch> tty1: man interfaces
[12:00] <mgolisch> tty1: they mean to edit the /ect/network/interfaces files, auto eth0 is not a command
[12:00] <tty1> ohh
[12:00] <tty1> ok let me retry this then
[12:01] <SupaYoshi> just a sec  think i can handle it now
[12:01] <veebull> EriC^^: any other ideas?
[12:02] <EriC^^> veebull: try to reset compiz dconf reset -f /org/compiz
[12:02] <random4321> Hey there, I want to mirror my display for a presentation. Display shows this option greyed out and xrandr doesn't shows only one option for the laptop screen that doesn't match any of the VGA output options. Any way I can add a smaller xrandr option for my laptop screen?
[12:04] <veebull> EriC^^: I did. I get an error: cannot auto launch d-bus without X11 $ DISPLAY
[12:06] <EriC^^> veebull: did you login using lightdm before?
[12:06] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: use lsof or fuser -m to get what keeping it open
[12:06] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: i think you should use kpartx to unmount it
[12:06] <veebull> EriC^^: yes
[12:06] <Aladiah-Friend> how to increase the size of the bar slide menu on lubuntu ?
[12:09] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[12:09] <Aladiah-Friend> yesterday my friend Aladiah, cames here to ask how to solve screen problems with lubuntu  14.04.1 in new amd laptop. We solve question installing with 14.10 version. Version 14.10 was with out control sound in panel menu and with out sound in aplications. We solved with sudo apt-get install indicator -sound
[12:09] <tty1> mgolisch:  apparently that didnt work either
[12:10] <tty1> i set auto eth0 in the /etc/network/interfaces file
[12:10] <tty1> then when i try to bring up etho with "ifup eth0" i get the error "unknown interface".. yet doing an ifconfig -a i do see the interface there
[12:11] <mgolisch> tty1: did you read the manpage?
[12:12] <tty1> mgolisch:  i looked over it breifly.. mostly reading from internet tutorials though as they are actually addressing my issue directly (rather than sifting through a large manpage which address more detail than is relevant)
[12:12] <SupaYoshi> EriC^^
[12:12] <tty1> mgolisch:  why is there something in particular in that man page i should look at?
[12:12] <SupaYoshi> When I try to umount directly with sudo sleep 2 && sudo kpartx -d -v -s /media/doslin/dos.raw
[12:12] <SupaYoshi> I cannot do that.
[12:12] <sacarlson> tty1: my guess is you still missed something in /etc/network/interfaces file that you should pastebin
[12:12] <SupaYoshi> I have to umount first : sudo u mount /media/MSDOS710
[12:12] <mgolisch> tty1: you need both auto etho and iface etho inet dhcp, if you intend to use dhcp
[12:12] <BluesKaj> tty1, try, ip add, in the terminal
[12:12] <tty1> sacarlson:  withou the network up ont he othercomputer i dont really have a way to pastebin stuff :(
[12:13] <tty1> mgolisch:  ahhh im used to dhcp being the default, yea that is probably it
[12:13] <sacarlson> tty1: I hate catch22 stuf
[12:13] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: try fuser -m /media/MSDOS710
[12:14] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: where did the dos.raw file come from?   dd from some disk?
[12:14] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: or lsof /media/MSDOS710
[12:15] <SupaYoshi> lemme see
[12:15] <SupaYoshi> the raw file was created by qemu
[12:16] <SupaYoshi> fuser -m /media/MSDOS710 output is none
[12:16] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9004978/
[12:18] <lvleph> Maybe, I am misunderstanding how to use trakt_remove, but I get the following warning: Task doesn't have any input plugins, you should add (at least) one!
[12:19] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: kpartx apparently only creates the mappings
[12:19] <lvleph> My config file is at https://github.com/erichlf/flexget/blob/master/config.yml but this won't tell much since I use an include on the trakt_remove.
[12:19] <EriC^^> so you have to mount them mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /media/MSDOS710
[12:19] <lvleph> the trakt_remove is quite standard though
[12:19] <SupaYoshi> EriC^^ yes
[12:19] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: then to unmount you do umount /media/MSDOS710
[12:19] <SupaYoshi> I have got everything working now.
[12:19] <SupaYoshi> :D
[12:19] <SupaYoshi> But I should not use umount
[12:19] <SupaYoshi> is what your saying?
[12:20] <EriC^^> if you want to mount again just mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /media/MSDOS710 again
[12:20] <EriC^^> SupaYoshi: no, you have to use umount
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> thanks
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> okay
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> cool
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> :)
[12:20] <EriC^^> ok cool
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> So em, one more thing. If I... mount the image with Kpartx.
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> And start DOS (in the image on it)
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> nah
[12:20] <SupaYoshi>  i will just try this
[12:20] <SupaYoshi> hold on
[12:21] <veebull> EriC^^: any suggestions as to why nothing seems to be able to open the X11 DISPLAY  as my user
[12:22] <EriC^^> veebull: try to check the logs
[12:22] <EriC^^> ~/.xsession-errors
[12:22] <veebull> Will do
[12:22] <sacarlson> veebull: did you try just move /home/<youruser>  then login?   if that works then you can copy back the files in it less the configs that mess up X
[12:23] <veebull> sacarlson: encrypted home might complicate that a bit
[12:23] <sacarlson> veebull: true but you can use cryptkeeper to take care of that part
[12:24] <veebull> EriC^^: .xsession-errors has one error:
[12:25] <veebull> init: dbus pre-start process (2281) terminated with status 2
[12:27] <veebull> sacarlson: is cryptkeeper a client app?
[12:28] <sacarlson> veebull: yes it's a gui app that allows the creation and mounting of encyrtped directorys
[12:29] <EriC^^> veebull: try rm -rf ~/.cache/upstart
[12:29] <sacarlson> veebull: you can use it from within your now working guest user to mount and analize the files in your other broken user
[12:29] <veebull> Sacarlson: So what happens if I *can't* login?
[12:29] <EriC^^> veebull: then sudo service lightdm restart and try to login
[12:30] <sacarlson> veebull: you can already login to the guest so I would assume that the default configs will work in the fresh home
[12:31] <veebull> EriC^^: that did it!!!
[12:31] <sacarlson> veebull: oh can't login to the encrypted dir from cryptkeeper?  then you have other problems
[12:32] <EriC^^> veebull: great
[12:32] <veebull> Now to logout and back in normally (/me crosses fingers)
[12:34] <veebull> Sweet butter daddy, twice in a row! ;)
[12:34] <sacarlson> EriC^^: what creates that .cache/upstart?  I don't see that on my system
[12:35] <veebull> Good thing... I had the files backed up and a usb stick with opensuse loaded and ready to go!
[12:35] <SupaYoshi> okay....
[12:36] <SupaYoshi> So... I get system is read-only
[12:36] <SupaYoshi> even though this is my mount line?
[12:36] <SupaYoshi> sudo mount -o loop,rw,exec,sync,users,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022 /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /media/MSDOS710/ -t vfat
[12:36] <sacarlson> SupaYoshi: so are yo user 1000?
[12:37] <SupaYoshi> yah
[12:37] <SupaYoshi> oh, removing fmask seems to work
[12:37] <SupaYoshi> oh nope..
[12:38] <SupaYoshi> fun fun
[12:38] <SupaYoshi> oh wait a sec.
[12:38] <SupaYoshi> >_< yeah okay cool
[12:38] <SupaYoshi> d????????? ? ?   ?        ?            ? test7
[12:40] <SupaYoshi> yeah fixed...
[12:40] <SupaYoshi> I created a file on the windows while having the system mounted and did that on the linux mount too
[12:40] <SupaYoshi> then closed the windows, and closed the mount
[12:40] <SupaYoshi> to see what would happen
[12:40] <SupaYoshi> that is that then
[12:53] <Guest12208> hi i'm new here
[12:56] <wpd> How can I install the info files for GNUmake on my 14.04 box?
[13:00] <nopf> wpd: apt-get install make-doc  should do
[13:01] <aLeSD> hi all
[13:01] <wpd> nopf: I tried that, and did't get the info files.  Then I looked at the package description, which reads:This package has been stripped down to
[13:01] <wpd>  only contain the documentation; since the documentation is covered
[13:01] <wpd>  under a non-free license and thus has been moved to
[13:01] <wpd>  non-free/doc. Make itself remains in Debian.
[13:01] <aLeSD> I have a bootable usb stick. Is it possible to create a bootable iso from it ?
[13:02] <wpd> So I guess my question should be more properly phrased as "How do I get to non-free/doc"?
[13:04] <nopf> wpd: hm, i just tried it and it works. so i have non-free active :/ bleh i thought this was a clean machine :/  you can simply add that to some line in sources.list, like 'deb ...whatever... main contrib non-free' or use teh software configuration tool of your choice
[13:05] <wpd> There it is.  Ok, thanks.
[13:09] <b431> hi
[13:11] <b431> I have a small problem with my ubuntu server, I installed plex and it workes till I try to add a library. There I cannot choose a language and I get wired request/timeout errors in the logs. I tried on another elementary os machine and a windows machine behind the same network and It works like a charm. But not on my ubuntu machine :(
[13:11] <b431> here is a part of the log: http://pastebin.com/j1dyPZUF
[13:11] <b431> can someone please help me? :)
[13:13] <b431> this might not be related to plex, might be something how my ubuntu machine is configured. Locale settings, packages missing? I don't know :/
[13:19] <PCworker> I have downloaded a program that ends in (.tar.bz2) and I have no idea how to extract and install it. Help please...
[13:20] <mesaboogie1> tar -jxvf
[13:20] <mesaboogie1> j for bz2
[13:20] <Fleetflame> PCworker: What version of Ubuntu?
[13:20] <ObrienDave> open with archive manager, extract all keeping directory structure intact. look for executable file in top level.
[13:20] <b431> http://askubuntu.com/questions/25961/how-do-i-install-a-tar-gz-or-tar-bz2-file
[13:20] <mesaboogie1> its normally -zxvf
[13:20] <EriC^^> PCworker: tar -xjvf <filename>
[13:21] <EriC^^> PCworker: then check the README
[13:21] <b431> so many answers :/ .. why can't someone answer poor me :(
[13:21] <PCworker> Version ubuntu 14.04
[13:21] <mesaboogie1> whats up b?
[13:21] <Fleetflame> Then look for Archive Manager in apps, like ObrienDave said
[13:21] <BluesKaj> PCworker, or install unp , it extracts almost all compressed files
[13:22] <BluesKaj> b431, not many users have plex installed afaik
[13:23] <PCworker> just opened archive manager and used extract. Thanks yall
[13:23] <mesaboogie1> plex whats that?
[13:24] <BluesKaj> b431, I'm sure plex must have a linux forum where you can ask your question
[13:25] <b431> BluesKaj, I don't think it
[13:25] <b431> BluesKaj, I don't think it has to be related to plex, might be something else such as locale settings, packages etc.
[13:25] <tigerfinch> Hey all! I'm choosing a new laptop to replace my current company one - was wondering if anyone has any recommendations? I've a developer, it's gotta run linux (don't mind if it needs some hand holding to get going) and I need to be able to happily have a few vms running at once
[13:26] <BluesKaj> b431, don't think ..go look for it
[13:26] <tigerfinch> Other than that, would be nice if it was pretty portable
[13:26] <tigerfinch> Was looking at thinkpads or maybe the dell xps13
[13:27] <BluesKaj> !polls
[13:27] <BluesKaj> !poll
[13:28] <hateball> tigerfinch: ##hardware is probably a better place to ask
[13:28] <tigerfinch> hateball: thanks will do!
[13:36] <puffi_> I'm trying to login to an ubuntu 12.04 LTS machine using an LDAP user, at the GUI login it only offers the local user name and a guest user, how do I enter ldap credentials?
[13:37] <LargePrime> GREETINGS UBUNTUIANS!  14.04 and i need to add an ip alias to my network connection.  it seem the best practices has changd?  please advise.  Thank you
[13:38] <LargePrime> also this is via ssh
[13:40] <mgolisch> LargePrime: how do you know that? and didnt the source claim how to do it now?
[13:42] <LargePrime> mgolisch :how do i know what?
[13:43] <mgolisch> that the best pratices for adding aliases have changed
[13:43] <mgolisch> id just set it up in the interfaces file

[13:44] <vros> how to remove Akonadi? (Kubuntu 12.04)
[13:44] <LargePrime> it sems there was a change in debian 6
[13:45] <hateball> vros: You probably don't want to remove akonadi if you want to keep a functional KDE Plasma desktop
[13:46] <iLibre> is Ubuntu more secure than OS X ?
[13:48] <cfhowlett> iLibre, probably as it's not a popular target --- yet
[13:49] <iLibre> cfhowlett: but UK's security agency says its much less secure Ubuntu
[13:49] <iLibre> Ubuntu is most secure
[13:49] <cfhowlett> iLibre, if you have the answer, why are you asking the question?
[13:49] <mesaboogie1> can you point me to a good iptables setup I can commit quickly?
[13:49]  * ObrienDave takes aim at google translate
[13:51] <mgolisch> LargePrime: i dont see how that is better, it still uses ifconfig just like when specifying alias in the interface file directly
[13:51] <iLibre> cfhowlett: I am just saying that Ubuntu says that UK's agency said so
[13:53] <lukevinc> hello there is a way to execute a task in max priority using ubuntu?
[13:54] <lukevinc> i need to execute a task which requires a lot of processing
[13:55] <cfhowlett> lukevinc, nice one!  yes, there's a way but I don't know the command structure.  sorry.  could be a ##linux question
[13:55] <lukevinc> cfhowlett: thanks, switching.
[13:55] <LargePrime> mgolisch: can you link me a guide that works then?  or suggest where i should look?
[13:56] <tasslehoff> Is there a way to disable that win+<num> opens applications from the dock?
[13:56] <cfhowlett> lukevinc, happy2help
[14:15] <SupaYoshi> anyone good here with qmu bridging?
[14:16] <daftykins> SupaYoshi: nobody answers until you actually set out a detailed question
[14:16] <SupaYoshi> okay.
[14:18] <LargePrime> mgolisch: http://askubuntu.com/questions/83171/how-do-i-set-an-extra-ip-for-an-existing-interface  it seems ifconfig has been depreciated?
[14:22] <SupaYoshi> I'm trying to create a bridge network for qemu as described here, http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/QEMU/Networking
[14:22] <SupaYoshi> qemu-bridge-helper is however removed from debian / ubuntu due it being a security hole because of some reasons according to the bug tracker.
[14:22] <SupaYoshi> SO I have to do it manually.
[14:22] <mgolisch> LargePrime: i doubt that the "legacy" way doesnt work
[14:22] <SupaYoshi> I was wondering if TAP/TUN is the right way?
[14:23] <SupaYoshi> and these commands they give give different results then that they describe
[14:23] <LargePrime> it seems it may work.  apparently i cant restart the network cause SSH connection and the restart command is different
[14:23] <LargePrime> in 14.04
[14:24] <LargePrime> so how do i relaod the network changes in 14.04
[14:24] <LargePrime> mgolisch:

[14:37] <raistlin_majere> Hi, I'm trying to pxe boot a network install image of Uubntu 14.10 and the installer gets stuck at the step for configuring the network with the message: "No network interfaces detected". When I execute the shell and run "ip address" I really get only the loopback interface... And yet the pxe boot worked with no problems (got the ip address, initrd and vmlinuz). All of this works without a problem in Ubuntu 14.04. Does anyone have any idea
[14:37] <raistlin_majere>  why my network interface is not recognized by the installer? dmesg reports it as: "Qualcomm Atheros Attansic L2 Fast Ethernet (rev 0)"
[14:43] <SupaYoshi> Anyone can help me setting up /etc/network for br0?
[14:44] <SupaYoshi> Im getting no IP dhcpdiscover on br0 -
[14:44] <nbuonanno> SupaYoshi: Do you have ports assigned to the bridge?
[14:44] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007240/ what i done
[14:45] <SupaYoshi> nbuonanno, idk?
[14:45] <SupaYoshi> https://wiki.debian.org/QEMU i just did what they said here in the guide.
[14:45] <SupaYoshi> bridge_ports all tap0
[14:45] <SupaYoshi> ?
[14:46] <nbuonanno> How familiar are you with bridged networks?
[14:46] <SupaYoshi> not so familiar.
[14:46] <SupaYoshi> a little, I have my router in bridge with my ISP
[14:46] <SupaYoshi> And I bridge on Windows with VMware which goes quite easy...
[14:46] <SupaYoshi> thats it
[14:46] <nbuonanno> Alright, so you have the core concepts down, I'm assuming.
[14:46] <SupaYoshi> im trying to use br0 with wlan0
[14:47] <SupaYoshi> i suppose
[14:47] <nbuonanno> Sounds like you're trying to bridge your physical/wireless connection with your VM interface?
[14:47] <SupaYoshi> yep
[14:47] <daftykins> ugh good luck with a wireless interface
[14:48] <nbuonanno> For starters, be cautious when bridging wireless.
[14:48] <SupaYoshi> >_<
[14:48] <SupaYoshi> why?
[14:48] <SupaYoshi> Layer 3? or something?
[14:48] <nbuonanno> I haven't done a lot of research on specifics, but I think most cards don't support it.
[14:48] <SupaYoshi> well let me put it this way, I dont specificly need bridge.
[14:48] <nbuonanno> Slash I do have one bit of practical experience.
[14:49] <SupaYoshi> I jus want my VM to get an IP from my router.
[14:49] <SupaYoshi> instead of getting an IP from qemu (vbox)
[14:50] <nbuonanno> Well, one point to start from: in your config, I've never seen "all" used as a parameter for bridge_ports
[14:51] <nbuonanno> And you also don't have wlan0 defined in that file, so I'm not sure if bridge_ports will "see" it.
[14:51] <nbuonanno> Pause. Can you run sudo brctl show, and pastebin that output?
[14:52] <daftykins> i had the same thought as nbuonanno, i don't think it knows of eth0 or wlan0 due to network manager handling them. but specifying them will break NM's management of the wifi, which makes using wireless for bridging a real pain
[14:52] <SupaYoshi> https://wiki.debian.org/QEMU#Host_and_guests_on_same_network got it from here.
[14:54] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> I've installed kde with the command "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and want to remove it i've tried "sudo apt-get autoremove kubuntu-desktop" and "sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop" but it wont uninstall
[14:55] <daftykins> GuyThatNeedsHelp: apt-cache policy kubuntu-desktop , take the package list and remove those. Probably a better way but i don't know one :)
[14:55] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, kde is not kubuntu-desktop.  what exactly did you install.
[14:55] <daftykins> you might need to then run install ubuntu-desktop to make sure nothing's missing
[14:56] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> http://askubuntu.com/questions/452083/how-to-install-kde-along-unity
[14:56] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> thats it
[14:56] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> i wanna remove kubuntu-desktop
[14:57] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, terminal time: apt-cache policy kubuntu-desktop                    see if that is what you installed
[14:57] <yeats> GuyThatNeedsHelp: seen this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/474427/how-do-i-install-and-uninstall-kubuntu-desktop-environment
[14:57] <nbuonanno> SupaYoshi: Okay, so "all" should technically work; however, I would add definitions in your interfaces file for eth0 and wlan0.
[14:58] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007503/
[14:58] <nbuonanno> And I would do it just like the second debian wiki page suggests: "iface eth0 inet manual", "iface wlan0 inet manual"
[14:59] <daftykins> GuyThatNeedsHelp: maybe apt-cache showpkg kubuntu-desktop would be more useful for my reply, though you don't seem to have read that one :P
[14:59] <LargePrime> how do i add a few new ips to my dedicated 14.04 server?  The guides i have found do not seem to work
[15:00] <SupaYoshi> Okay I read a little more and you cannot bridge wireless
[15:00] <SupaYoshi> So I am supposed to SNAT or work with MASQUARADE
[15:00] <daftykins> LargePrime: single interface? add eth0:0 or eth0:1 to your interfaces file
[15:01] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007538/
[15:01] <LargePrime> daftykins: yes single, did, but i seem to not be able to restart the interface,.  connected via ssh?
[15:01] <bergelmir> how can i debug slow dns responses? i have two dns entries and one takes only a few ms but the other takes ~5s
[15:01] <daftykins> LargePrime: you can't restart networking without a reboot these days
[15:01]  * LargePrime has a sad face
[15:02] <daftykins> bergelmir: packet sniff and traceroute? :)
[15:02] <nbuonanno> daftykins: Won't the script in /etc/init.d do it still?
[15:02] <daftykins> nbuonanno: nope
[15:02] <daftykins> hasn't worked properly for ages
[15:02] <LargePrime> you have a link to a guide that you know works?  i am told ipconfig is depreciated
[15:03] <nbuonanno> SupaYoshi: that's likely the case, but I'm not familiar with setting that up.
[15:03] <nbuonanno> Out of curiosity, I'm guessing a wired connection is totally not possible?
[15:04] <LargePrime> drafykins you have a link to a guide that you know works?  i am told ipconfig is depreciated
[15:04] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-dektop , E: Unable to locate package kubuntu-dektop
[15:04] <daftykins> LargePrime: that's a nickname tab complete fail, it's ifconfig, and no - i've yet to learn all the new ones :(
[15:05] <daftykins> GuyThatNeedsHelp: lol you copied and pasted from the guide and KEPT THE TYPO
[15:05] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, last time I ask you, I promise: apt-cache policy kubuntu-desktop
[15:05] <daftykins> that's hilarious.
[15:05] <daftykins> cfhowlett: that's already been issued. read up.
[15:05] <yeats> GuyThatNeedsHelp: kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage that exists only to pull in all the dependencies, FYI
[15:05] <tux9th> Hm! My freshly installed ubuntu with LVMs doesn't boot because it says /dev/mapper/vol1-root doesn't exist
[15:05] <tux9th> Does anyone know how to fix this?
[15:06] <n-iCe> is xubuntu official?
[15:06] <cfhowlett> daftykins, kool.  good luck.
[15:06] <yeats> tux9th: boot in with a live CD/USB and check that the logical volumes actually exists
[15:06] <cfhowlett> !flavors \ n-iCe, of course.
[15:06] <tux9th> they do
[15:06] <cfhowlett> !flavors | n-iCe, of course.
[15:06] <k1l_> n-iCe: yes
[15:06] <n-iCe> thanks
[15:06] <n-iCe> I love xubuntu
[15:06] <cfhowlett> n-iCe, also #xubuntu is the irc channel
[15:07] <tux9th> I'm on boot and repair at the moment. I can see all the files and stuff but I cannot figure out how to fix it.
[15:07] <LargePrime> daftykins: what is the correct language for googling.  I am trying to add a few ips to my server.  are thoes 'virtual ip's'?  is that a static route?
[15:07] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: I've done it already. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007503/
[15:07] <yeats> tux9th: so is grub pointing at  vol1-root?
[15:07] <tux9th> yeats: yes.
[15:08] <daftykins> LargePrime: i think i once heard it called a multi-homed host.
[15:08] <yeats> tux9th: then it should work
[15:08] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, right.  see where it says "Installed: (none)" = you did not install kubuntu-desktop.  probably installed KDE would be my guess.
[15:09] <tux9th> yeats: but it doesn't
[15:09] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> I installed kubuntu-desktop "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop"
[15:10] <yeats> tux9th: can you pastebin the full error?
[15:10] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> I tried to remove it "sudo apt-get autoremove kubuntu-desktop"
[15:10] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> and it didn't work
[15:10] <yeats> GuyThatNeedsHelp: it's just 'sudo apt-get autoremove'
[15:10] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, autoremove?  wrong.  apt-get remove packagenamehere
[15:11] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> I did remove too
[15:11] <dcohen613> can anyone tell me why my tomcat service starts up but doesn’t listen on any ports? my server.xml - http://pastebin.com/tZeRbz3q tomcat is a ghost town
[15:11] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, logout, login.
[15:13] <dcohen613> **http://pastebin.com/t3FZk4tZ
[15:13] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> i logged out and i still see "kde plasma workspace" there
[15:13] <tero> does ubuntu has anything similiar to "system restore"? I have 12.04 server installed and I have a lot of setting confs and a lot of stuff changed. How do I know that everything will work if I upgrade? and how can i get to previous version if something does not work? and should I even upgrade?
[15:14] <eltigre> I almost enrolled for data science nanodegree... but I don't own a credit card, so no luck
[15:14] <cfhowlett> eltigre, ?? check your channel ...
[15:14] <tux9th> yeats: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007741/
[15:14] <cfhowlett> tero, no system restore.  12.4 has 5 years support on the server.
[15:15] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: i logged out and i still see "kde plasma workspace" there
[15:15] <cfhowlett> tero, might ask your query in #ubuntu-server
[15:15] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, you logged in with KDE?
[15:15] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> no
[15:15] <yeats> tux9th: did you see this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/395295/gave-up-waiting-for-root-device-while-booting
[15:15] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> i logged into gnome
[15:16] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, now you can run sudo apt-get autoremove
[15:16] <yeats> tux9th: also, is LUKS encryption involved?
[15:17] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: before when i was trying to remove it i was on gnome

[15:18] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, I know.  crazy thought.  LOG IN TO KDE
[15:21] <SupaYoshi> anyone good with networking here?
[15:21] <cfhowlett> guythatneedshelp     your system says "kubuntu not installed"   so attempting to log in should fail.  if you DO somehow get into kde/kubuntu, sudo apt-get autoremove and then reboot.
[15:22] <OerHeks> SupaYoshi, why don't you ask the real question and find out?
[15:22] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: I am in kde just did "sudo apt-get autoremove" and i got " upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 26 not upgraded."
[15:23] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: going to reboot

[15:23] <CyberNeuron> hello I need help with iptables...I want to establish vpn connection between two networks linked by an ubuntu server router: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=79814
[15:23] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: should i do that first?
[15:23] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, sorry, I should have suggested this long ago ... bookmarked!
[15:24] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: its fine as long as i get this removed
[15:24] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-ubuntu/
[15:24] <CyberNeuron> I am willing to connect the w7 machine to the 192.168.10.0/24 network...
[15:24] <SupaYoshi> Hi, I have a question about forwarding traffic. This is my situation. I have a linux laptop connected by wlan0, which has internet and gets an IP from my router. Now I run a virtual machine on this in qemu. Due not being able to use wlan0 for bridging, I want to forward all the traffic for the virtualmachine by the host os, linux debian.  I catched the following with tcmpdump -i wlan icmp
[15:24] <SupaYoshi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007880/
[15:25] <CyberNeuron> I built a W2008 machine as vpn server and both networks have connectivity but iptables on the ubuntu server acting as router dont seem to be working..
[15:25] <faLUCE> hello, I have a netbook; when I close or just fold the screen ubuntu shows the dialog with "turn off, restart, close the session etc.". how can I remove that?
[15:26] <user0_-> Does anyone know how to correctly send a keyboard even to X using xdotool?  I would like to hold down the Alt Key while pressing S and while continuing to hold down the Alt key, issue another keystroke
[15:26] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9007903/
[15:26] <user0_-> xdotool keydown "Alt+S" "P"  doesn't work
[15:26] <user0_-> it just throws some weird ascii across the screen
[15:26] <SupaYoshi> OerHeks any clue?
[15:27] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: after i copied and paste the Remove Kubuntu command
[15:27] <CyberNeuron> I used a script but it is not genereting prerouting rules: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=79815
[15:27] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, every indication is that you have successfully removed kubuntu --- reboot then run autoremove to see if that kills the leftovers
[15:28] <Aladiah-Friend> 	For virtual box, i need to install DKMS package first and then execut command /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' . should be sudo apt-get install DKMS , then , sudo apt-get update, then sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup ?? This will make it ask me the windows iso instalation then ?
[15:28] <OerHeks> SupaYoshi, "Warning: Network bridging will not work when the physical network device (e.g., eth1, ath0) used for bridging is a wireless device" >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking
[15:29] <SupaYoshi> OerHeks, yes i know
[15:29] <SupaYoshi> I do not want to bridge
[15:29] <SupaYoshi> I want to forward all traffic for the VM IP from the HOST IP.
[15:30] <OerHeks> SupaYoshi, And your host is on wlan ?
[15:30] <user0_-> anyone use xdotool before?
[15:30] <lobner> \join #osm
[15:30] <OerHeks> SupaYoshi, and debian?
[15:31] <SupaYoshi> I want mhm
[15:31] <SupaYoshi> yep
[15:32] <Aladiah-Friend> anyone virtual box experienced on linux ?
[15:33] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: Its still there
[15:34] <OerHeks> SupaYoshi, so you are saying you run a vm on debian, want to bridge the wlan ,,, but we do not support debian
[15:34] <SupaYoshi> ubuntu is the same
[15:34] <SupaYoshi> its just bussier here  >_<
[15:35] <sanalmadatheth> Dear all, I have installed Ubuntu 14.04.1 and now i have to install all packages in a customised DVD with a single command. Is that possible?
[15:35] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: Feels like kubuntu-desktop is haunting me
[15:36] <jimmy51v_> I've got a directory /usr/local/testA.  it has some files in it that /usr/local/testB does not.  I want to copy those files from A to B.  I also want files that exist in B but not A to be deleted.  Is cp usable here or do I need rsync or something

[15:38] <ecky--ptang-zoob> Got a php script which is run by a cronjob every 4 hours... How can this script be protected so it can only be executed by the cronjob and not by someone in the browser who types the url to the script?
[15:39] <sanalmadatheth> What I want to know is whether it is possible to install all packages in dvd as a bulk
[15:39] <jimmy51v_> GuyThatNeedsHelp: will that remove files in B that don't exist in A?
[15:40] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> jummy51v_ depends if some of the files in A have the same file names in B
[15:40] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> jImmy51v_ depends if some of the files in A have the same file names in B
[15:40] <haasn> Is there an official support channel for Ubuntu Touch or is this the place for that?

[15:49] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett: on all the packages it says E: Unable to locate package

[16:28] <dario_> hi
[16:28] <EsoRotica> I switch lots of people over to ubuntu when they mostly only use the computer as a browser.  Since most of these people come from windows, and are not astonisingly computer literate, I'd like for ALL software  (not just security updates via unattended) to update automatically (rarely a customization). Is there a simple way to do this to cause minmal conflict
[16:29] <pue> hello everyone. do i have to boot from usb in order to resize my partition in ubuntu?
[16:29] <pue> why can't i resize it right now?
[16:29] <pue> is this normal?
[16:29] <xangua> pue: because you are using the partition, and backups are always good idea
[16:30] <pue> this is because of ext3 or ext4?
[16:30] <pue> because in windows, you can do it.
[16:30] <pue> so i'll just plug my live usb and use gparted i guess?
[16:30] <EsoRotica> Because its just safer
[16:31] <EsoRotica> yes
[16:31] <pue> thank you very much EsoRotica and xangua
[16:31] <pue> see you in a bit :)
[16:32] <sacarlson> anyone ever use any of the offline voice recognition on linux and find that they work?
[16:36] <Wes-> Is it possible to force a user to login with a specific desktop, regardless of what he/she has chosen during the lighdm session greeter?
[16:36] <dncr> initctl says "pulseaudio stop/waiting" and rcconf has it unchecked, but "ps -ef | grep pulse" shows it running with parent process id 1. what is starting it?
[16:36] <Lxus> Hey folks in need of assistance again :| Ever since switching back to linux after using windows for about 3 years i cant for the life of me figure out how to make my videos stay fullscreen when i switch to another program.
[16:39] <SchrodingersScat> Lxus: what player are you using?  mpv seems to keep it at full screen as you tab around, so does vlc
[16:40] <wxl> my battery is telling me the status is unknown (true even in /sys) though it appears to be electronically charging. any ideas of how to trouble shoot this?
[16:40] <wxl> this is trusty btw
[16:40] <wxl> on a lenovo g700
[16:40] <OerHeks> lxus i think that is a linux feature, i cannot switch when video is full screen too, solution, maximize the videoplayer
[16:41] <stephanie> good morninq
[16:41] <mgolisch> dncr: what user does it run at? by default pulseaudio clients will start a server if there is none
[16:41] <mgolisch> oh too late
[16:41] <mgolisch> :)
[16:42] <stephanie> ok,im french
[16:42] <stephanie> lol
[16:42] <stephanie> mdr
[16:43] <stephanie> hello
[16:43] <Wes-> Bonjour, Stéphanie
[16:43] <SchrodingersScat> stephanie: hello
[16:43] <nosleep77> hi guys i created user with "useradd user1 -m" it creates the homedir but the defaults and env aren't there like proper shell prompt, tab completion etc. what option can I use for this?
[16:44] <stephanie> non,vous etes francais?
[16:44] <stephanie> qui est wes
[16:44] <SchrodingersScat> !fr
[16:46] <Lxus> OerHeks, thanks mate thats what i feared. its an online player so thats not an option, plus zooming the webpage all the way in makes the feed choppy :(
[16:46] <EsoRotica> nosleep77: I think what you're looking for is called the skel files
[16:47] <nosleep77> EsoRotica: yep so i have to do that manually? isn't there a way to automatically do this while creating the user?
[16:47] <EsoRotica> Set the skel once and you're set
[16:47] <EsoRotica> nosleep77: the Skel files are essentially the "template" to create future users
[16:48] <SchrodingersScat> Lxus: so something that is flash?  what are you actually trying to do?
[16:48] <nosleep77> ok thanks
[16:49] <EsoRotica> nosleep77: It sounds like you have set aliases you need added. Check to see that they exist in the .rc file for the shell in the /etc/skel dir
[16:49] <akshat> i dont have a blog ryt now .. but i will surely make one in future
[16:50] <Lxus> SchrodingersScat, trying to keep a video fullscreen whilst i focus on another window to work eg. watching GoT whilst working on a project in cad. as soon as i shift focus to CAD it minimizes the video back to the original player
[16:51] <nosleep77> EsoRotica: I got it. it gave it 'sh' shell by defualt. i had to specify bash. now all is good. thanks
[16:52] <EsoRotica> nosleep77: Thats for NEW users. If you need to change the user in your setup, chsh -s /bin/bash
[16:53] <EsoRotica> nosleep77: and to add the aliases, of course you can add them to rc and source ~/.bashrc
[16:54] <knittl> hi. what is the license of the ubuntu font? Can I use it on t-shirts I print?
[16:55] <OerHeks> Lxus i think it is a non problem, work on cad or watch movie
[16:55] <EsoRotica> knittl: http://font.ubuntu.com/licence/
[16:55] <nosleep77> EsoRotica: werd
[16:55] <knittl> EsoRotica: yeah, I'm on that page right now
[16:56] <knittl> EsoRotica: so using the font is fine if I don't plan on altering it, i.e. creating a derived version?
[16:56] <EsoRotica> knittl: Nah, you just need to include its copyright along the bottom seam of the shirt :P
[16:57] <knittl> EsoRotica: do I?
[16:57] <EsoRotica> knittl: Sorry, Sarcasm isnt translating. Reading now
[16:57] <trism> knittl: if you look further down it says: "You are most welcome to use the Ubuntu Font Family, in your documents, graphic designs, logos, or company stationary. We'd like as many people as possible to have a better quality reading experience everyday." so I would guess it is okay, though ianal
[16:59] <EsoRotica> It does look okay. You're using the font, not selling, repackaging etc.
[16:59] <knittl> EsoRotica: I'm selling the shirts (but not making profit)
[16:59] <shlant> anyone know how to get a dynamic MOTD working on ubuntu 14.04? Seems to be the most complicated thing I've done yet… Basically I replaced everything in /etc/update-motd.d/ with my own bash script, but instead of running my script, the motd is blank with just the last login. I have tried commenting out 'noupdate' lines in both /etc/pam.d/login and sshd as well as changing Printmotd in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to yes
[16:59] <EsoRotica> knittl: *shirts* not the font
[16:59] <shlant> and I can run the script manually and it gives me what I want
[17:00] <knittl> EsoRotica: yeah. but IANAL, and licensing can get tricky :)
[17:00] <EsoRotica> I'm with ya.
[17:01] <knittl> EsoRotica: trism: thanks for your help :]
[17:02] <EsoRotica> knittl: Good luck.
[17:03] <Lxus> OerHeks, it's a large problem for me lmao.
[17:03] <daftykins> Lxus: use a better player?
[17:04] <daftykins> Lxus: which one is it?
[17:05] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> is there a way like in windows factory restore on ubuntu? id like to reset everything and start over

[17:25] <cassio3> Guythatneedshelp
[17:25] <daftykins> GuyThatNeedsHelp: bye then
[17:25] <cassio3> what's the issue?
[17:25] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> yes?
[17:25] <cassio3> it's somewhat manipulative... we're a community of volunteers mostly.
[17:25] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> just the compatibility on linux kinda sucks
[17:25] <cassio3> you may also get support directly from ubuntu if you need it
[17:25] <daftykins> cassio3: indeed, it was mostly failing to follow instructions earlier so i wouldn't worry.
[17:26] <dcohen613> any idea why i’m getting an IP on my ethernet, but it doesn’t actually allow me to resolve? connection em1 141.225.xxx.xxx?
[17:26] <cassio3> daftykins, ok
[17:26] <dcohen613> or why it’s em1 for that matter and noth eth0?
[17:26] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> daftykins miss u
[17:26] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> cfhowlett mis u
[17:27] <daftykins> dcohen613: "allow you to resolve" do you mean you've got no working DNS? is that a correct IP for your LAN?
[17:27] <dcohen613> yes it is
[17:27] <daftykins> GuyThatNeedsHelp: stop that
[17:27] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> ;(
[17:27] <dcohen613> cant ping anything
[17:27] <daftykins> dcohen613: there were two questions in that line
[17:27] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> I DONT WANNA GO
[17:28] <cfhowlett> GuyThatNeedsHelp, you are awfully close to going on the /ignore list.  you asked how to reinstall.  we told you.  if it's not for you, fine.  leave.  quietly.
[17:28] <daftykins> cfhowlett: user quit.
[17:30] <BluesKaj> seems to be lots of cementhead attitude around the chats today :)
[17:31] <ScrappyCocco> if anyone could help me please query xD
[17:31] <daftykins> ScrappyCocco: no, you ask questions in the channel :)
[17:31] <dcohen613> daftykins: it cannot ping anything, but i’m not sure if it’s a DNS issue. it is a correct IP for my lan
[17:32] <ScrappyCocco> come on daftykins
[17:32] <daftykins> dcohen613: did the interface work in a live session?
[17:32] <ansivirus> dcohen613, are you pinging by IP or DNS?
[17:32] <ScrappyCocco> i don't want to spam and talk here xD
[17:32] <daftykins> ScrappyCocco: it's what the place is for. either do it or you won't receive any help.
[17:32] <BluesKaj> ScrappyCocco, ask your question it's not spam if it's legit
[17:33] <ScrappyCocco> ok so... i'm in windows now, and i have one hard disk with c: and d:... coudl i install ubuntu 14.10 in d:? without formatting?
[17:33] <daftykins> no
[17:33] <cfhowlett> ScrappyCocco, nope
[17:33] <ScrappyCocco> D:
[17:33] <ScrappyCocco> just with 14.10
[17:33] <ScrappyCocco> 13.10 work erfectly
[17:33] <ScrappyCocco> :(
[17:33] <daftykins> you're probably referring to WUBI, which is an abomination
[17:33] <cfhowlett> ScrappyCocco, but you only need to format the target: d not the whole dist.
[17:33] <daftykins> don't ever touch it
[17:34] <trel> irc.hack3r.com
[17:34] <ScrappyCocco> i have a lot of things in d... i don't want to touch it
[17:34] <daftykins> backup first
[17:34] <cfhowlett> trel, stop spamming.
[17:35] <ScrappyCocco> it's a stupid thing D:
[17:35] <ScrappyCocco> or can i make another little partition (for example e:) only for ubuntu?
[17:35] <cfhowlett> ScrappyCocco, install virtualbox in windows.  install lubuntu to virtualbox.
[17:35] <daftykins> ScrappyCocco: Linux doesn't use Windows drive letters.
[17:35] <ScrappyCocco> i know
[17:35] <ScrappyCocco> i'm thinking about erase 60gb from d for make another partition
[17:36] <cfhowlett> !dualboot | ScrappyCocco, read...READ
[17:36] <tirengarfio> Im experiencing several Ubunty system errors
[17:36] <tirengarfio> I get a message saying something like that and then I repor the error
[17:37] <ScrappyCocco> it don't help me cfhowlett
[17:37] <tirengarfio> any way to check if are hardware errors?
[17:37] <tirengarfio> how to check my hardware in Ubuntu?
[17:37] <cfhowlett> ScrappyCocco, then you didn't read it.  dual boot is precisely what you described as your goal.  it's doable.  as is virtualbox.
[17:38] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, terminal command: lshw
[17:38] <ScrappyCocco> ok thanks
[17:38] <ScrappyCocco> bye
[17:39] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, https://gist.github.com/Ziiweb/bc34d3158e3604b4a5c8
[17:40] <shlant> anybody know why MOTD on ubuntu 14.04 doesn't work properly? I have removed the executable bit from everything in /etc/update-motd.d/ and added my own bash script with the executable bit. When I reboot, I get nothing but the last login info
[17:41] <shlant> when I run my script manually, it gives what I want
[17:41] <daftykins> permissions?
[17:41] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, do you get any hint?
[17:41] <daftykins> i don't know how the MOTD works truth be told.
[17:41] <daftykins> but 99% of issues are permissions ;)
[17:41] <shlant> daftykins: supposidly it's the most complicated thing ever ahha
[17:41] <daftykins> hahaha
[17:41] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, great firewall of china is blocking
[17:41] <daftykins> no doubt :)
[17:41] <shlant> with wide open permissions it doesn't work either
[17:42] <JokesOnYou77> Hi all.
[17:42] <daftykins> shlant: i was more thinking along the lines of owner + group
[17:42] <tirengarfio> what do you mean? what should I do? unblock it? what is "firewall of china" ?
[17:42] <shlant> daftykins: nope, everything it root
[17:43] <EsoRotica> cfhowlett: tirengarfio Lol
[17:43] <navetz> hi guys. I want to virtualize windows to use photoshop on my ubuntu install. what is the best approach for this?
[17:43] <EsoRotica> tirengarfio: He lives in china and that is blocked for him, post to another paste website such as pastie
[17:44] <daftykins> navetz: i know this isn't what you've asked, but did you know it tends to run well under WINE these days?
[17:44] <daftykins> navetz: also, virtualbox for your actual question
[17:44] <EsoRotica> navetz: I use Virtualbox specifically for this purpose
[17:44] <cfhowlett> navetz, photoshop?  not likely.  see !wine or use gimp.  or install windows in virtualbox.  problem: vbox doesn't actually use the gpu.
[17:44] <JokesOnYou77> I installed updates on my 14.04 Ubuntu Gnome system two days ago and rebooted to this: http://imgur.com/IEjCOxk  The hardware is a 2009 Mac Pro with an older nvidia card.  So far I have tried installing the xorgg-edgers ppa and upgrading but that hasn't helped.  The problem seems to be in gdm but I'm not sure.  What can I do?
[17:45] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, http://pastie.org/9719440
[17:45] <nonamae> if there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ folder then i just make it?
[17:46] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, fpaste.org  still works
[17:46] <nonamae> (i will make some touchpad configuration)
[17:46] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Which nvidia card in particular do you have?
[17:46] <daftykins> JokesOnYou77: try an older kernel, i'd bet the driver went funky
[17:46] <bekks> I bet the new driver doesnt support the old card.
[17:47] <EsoRotica> cfhowlett:  tirengarfio:   http://fpaste.org/150865/59872201/
[17:47] <navetz> daftykins, I didn't know it works well in WINE. I'll give that a shot. I'll try virtualbox too
[17:47] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, http://fpaste.org/150866/15987237/
[17:47] <cfhowlett> EsoRotica, got it.  so your original question again?
[17:48] <EsoRotica> cfhowlett:  This was for tirengarfio
[17:50] <devildog31415> I am having a problem with a crontab (running as me, not root).. I have pasted the cron.txt that I "crontab'd" and the .sh file it should run, and the error that I get.  help would be much appreciated... guessing it's a rights thing?  http://fpaste.org/150867/
[17:51] <bekks> devildog31415: What are you actually trying with that script?
[17:51] <bekks> *trying to do
[17:51] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, If i remember correctly it's a geForce 120 (pretty old)
[17:52] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: That card isnt supported by newer nvidia drivers, you have to stick with an older driver.
[17:52] <JokesOnYou77> daftykins, something similar, not low graphics mode but a similar boot error has happened before and I had to reinstall.  Thinking of just going to XFCE if this is going to keep happening
[17:52] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: So xorg edgers ppa makes things even worse, actually.
[17:52] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, But I didn't install a new driver :(
[17:53] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, apt-get install nvidia-173 or wahtever it is?
[17:53] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, I experience also problems with firefox (it is crasshing many times, even if I have a few addons) and I get also problems tryint install virtual machines in virtual box
[17:53] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: You said you updated to 14.04, didnt you?
[17:53] <tirengarfio> what should I start to check?? Im very tired of these errors..
[17:53] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, one problem at a time.  "problems" is meaningless = be specific
[17:53] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, No, its been working with 14.04 for 2 months. This is the original install.  I just ran a normal apt-get upgrade
[17:54] <tirengarfio> ok
[17:54] <tirengarfio> sorry
[17:54] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: So which driver did you use before?
[17:54] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, open a terminal: cat /etc/issue      copy and paste
[17:55] <tirengarfio> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[17:55] <devildog31415> bekks:  its running a command line accounting package and sending my account balances.. it works if I manually run the .sh file and it works if I reset the crontab time to a couple minutes from now and wait.. but doesn't work the next day after I reboot and am sitting here logged in and working
[17:56] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, good.  now: sudo apt-get update
[17:56] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I think I'm (still) on proprietary-tested
[17:56] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, just run the command, don't report
[17:56] <tirengarfio> ok
[17:56] <tirengarfio> finished
[17:56] <devildog31415> bekks: oh, and it is only supposed to email me if the date of the accounting journal has had an update in the last 24 hours (86400 seconds)
[17:57] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade         to bring all packages to current versions for 14.04.1
[17:57] <devildog31415> bekss: which it seems to do just fine
[17:57] <EriC^^> devildog31415: you can't do a mathematical operation in a variable
[17:57] <tirengarfio> done
[17:57] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, Oh, I just did "grep -i "x driver" /var/log/Xorg.0.log" and it actually looks like I'm at 331.38, that's probably it, let me see
[17:57] <bekks> devildog31415: there are several errors so far: a) your script does not contain a proper header, b) you are not using full path names, c) the secondssince variable will not contain an integer after a daychange.
[17:57] <EriC^^> devildog31415: secondssince="<number> - <othernumber>"
[17:58] <tirengarfio> do you want the report?
[17:58] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, of dist-upgrade only
[17:59] <devildog31415> EriC^^: thank you.. i will take that to heart and address once I have the non-working part fixed (unless you are saying I have to change that to fix my problem, I'm VERY new to this stuff)
[17:59] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, http://fpaste.org/150874/41598794/
[18:00] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, looking good.  run sudo apt-get autoremove         no reporting
[18:00] <EriC^^> devildog31415: secondssince=`expr <number> - <othernumber>`
[18:00] <EriC^^> devildog31415: that should work
[18:00] <tirengarfio> done
[18:01] <devildog31415> EriC^^: I appreciate the insight into "better code" but that doesn't fix the sporadic issue I'm having when it runs as a cron job but works when I call the shell script directly.. correct?
[18:01] <EriC^^> devildog31415: it's not better code, it's the problem
[18:01] <EriC^^> devildog31415: the script is failing on the lines after the arithmetic operation
[18:01] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, your system should now be fully upgraded and ready to rock.
[18:01] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, ok, installing 173...we'll see what happens
[18:02] <tirengarfio> really? ok, thanks! I will keep on alert
[18:02] <devildog31415> EriC^^:  really!  thank you.. I have to go to a meeting but I'm going to come back to this and hopefully you will be around to help me understand.. either way, thank you for the patient replies!
[18:02] <tirengarfio> I hope it is ok now
[18:02] <EriC^^> devildog31415: no problem
[18:02] <tirengarfio> anyway, if the problems persists, what should I do?
[18:02] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, virtualbox is in the software center
[18:03] <tirengarfio> but I have virtualbox already installed.. what do you mean?
[18:03] <PinkPanther> I am having issues with Bonding three network cards. Anyone having this issue?
[18:03] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, good.  what kind of errors was it throwing?
[18:05] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9010181/  :<
[18:05] <tirengarfio> I can not remember now, Im installing a version of windows 7 I have just downloded, let's see if I get any error
[18:05] <OerHeks> tirengarfio, why do your fpaste not load?
[18:05] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I forgot to purge nvidia* first and now I can't autoremove or install -f
[18:05] <tirengarfio> I dont know..
[18:05] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: why cant you purge it?
[18:05] <tirengarfio> OerHeks, what do you want to read?
[18:06] <OerHeks> tirengarfio, can you repaste again on paste.ubuntu.com ?
[18:06] <tirengarfio> OerHeks, what exactly?
[18:06] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, Apparently this is a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-331/+bug/1369398
[18:07] <OerHeks> tirengarfio, never mind
[18:07] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, Still doesn't solve my original problem, but at least there's a workaround so I can keep going
[18:07] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Follow comment #4.
[18:08] <tirengarfio> OerHeks, this is my lshw output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9010209/
[18:09] <daftykins> JokesOnYou77: 304 would likely be more stable. i doubt your machine has that new a GPU
[18:09] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, stopping the service didn't work, but the error message gave me a pid I could kill
[18:09] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Uninstall that xorg edgers PPA, uninstall the driver taken from there. It it too new.
[18:09] <OerHeks> tirengarfio, i thought you pasted the errors you get
[18:10] <PinkPanther> I bond three NICs but the bound is not is not working
[18:10] <PinkPanther> I am trying for figure out what might be the problem.
[18:10] <bekks> PinkPanther: Define "is not working" please.
[18:11] <PinkPanther> It is not connecting to the switch or getting an IP address to populate on the other three NICs.
[18:11] <PinkPanther> I have tried it both ways with static and dynamic and still no go.
[18:11] <bekks> PinkPanther: DHCP does not work with bonded interfaces.
[18:11] <bekks> PinkPanther: You have to configure it statically.
[18:12] <PinkPanther> I had. But there is not connection to the outside.
[18:12] <bekks> PinkPanther: Then you did not configure it correctly, most likely.
[18:12] <PinkPanther> When I configure the bond0 with static the IP is not pingable.
[18:12] <bekks> PinkPanther: How did you configure it in detail?
[18:13] <JokesOnYou77> daftykins, It's actually a really, really, old card and I was thinking of trying to go back to 173
[18:14] <PinkPanther> auto bond0
[18:14] <tirengarfio> hi again, my ubuntu get frozen this time, cfhowlett
[18:14] <daftykins> JokesOnYou77: probably less thoroughly tested
[18:14] <bekks> PinkPanther: thats an invalid configuration. How did you statically configure it?
[18:14] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, on launching vbox?
[18:15] <tirengarfio> on installing a windows 7 as a guest
[18:15] <tirengarfio> it doesn't usually get frozen too much.. just sometimes..
[18:15] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, and it froze your computer?  terminal: free
[18:16] <PinkPanther> getting all that together
[18:16] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, free will display your available ram
[18:17] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, daftykins, Just installed 173 and rebooted, same message, so going to purge edgers and then try 304
[18:17] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9010333/
[18:17] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: How about purging xorg edgers, purge all newer drivers than 173?
[18:18] <teward> is there a way to get CPU/GPU temp monitors onto the Unity applets/notificationicons bar in 14.04?
[18:18] <cfhowlett> tirengarfio, no can see in China.  fpaste.org
[18:18] <logikos> with ubuntu server how do i restart cups please
[18:18] <tirengarfio> http://fpaste.org/150886/15989119/
[18:18] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, before installing 173 I apt-get purge nvidia*
[18:19] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Purge the entire PPA as well.
[18:19] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, Im trying to install windows 7 again..
[18:19] <logikos> serverip:631 is not liking my password (which i have used before) .. last time this happened i found out cups was running multipal times
[18:20] <minas114> I have a strange problem. I plug in my external headset, go to settings and select it as sound output (speakers) and input (microphone).

[18:24] <bekks> PinkPanther: Can you pastebin "lsb_release -a" please?
[18:24] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, again another error..wait I will paste it
[18:24] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: hmm, do you have aptitude installed?
[18:24] <k1l_> C_Clear: run "sudo apt-get update" and show the output in a pastebin
[18:25] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, no...that might be it lol
[18:25] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: "command not found" could indicate that, yes :)
[18:25] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I always thought it was built-in but depricated lol
[18:26] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett, http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-14112014-192459.php
[18:27] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I installed aptitude, but running ppa-purge again didn't find anything, so maybe it worked?  I'm doing another apt-get purge nvidia*
[18:27] <PinkPanther> @ bekks, keep getting not found. Even knowingly I can see the file in etc
[18:27] <tirengarfio> I had the same problem with other windows 7 installation
[18:27] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, Does it matter if I don't reboot between purging nvidia and installing a new driver?
[18:27] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: No.
[18:27] <C_Clear> k11  this is what I got: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9010507/
[18:27] <bekks> PinkPanther: You keep getting "not found" when doing what?
[18:27] <tirengarfio> because all these things Im wondering if I maybe I have a problem with my hardware..
[18:28] <PinkPanther> yes
[18:28] <bekks> PinkPanther: "Yes" is an invalid answer to my question.
[18:28] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, ok...here we go agian
[18:28] <tirengarfio> will having windows 7 installed as a virtual machine I had also problems, when booting it checked the hard disk for example..
[18:28] <PinkPanther> Is it a "_" or a "-"
[18:29] <tirengarfio> cfhowlett,
[18:29] <bekks> tirengarfio: The harddisk in a vm is irrelevant, actually :)
[18:29] <bekks> tirengarfio: The harddisk in a vm is a plain file on your host, not the hosts harddisk.

[18:49] <C_Clear> done k11
[18:49] <C_Clear> anything I need to do or test ?
[18:50] <k1l_> C_Clear: that error should be gone now
[18:50] <C_Clear> thank you very much for your help. Have a great day k11
[18:51] <k1l_> C_Clear: no problem :)
[18:51] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I'm guessing I should remove that libcuda package, but now I'm wondering how it even got there as I did an apt-get purge nvidia*
[18:52] <k1l_> who was asking about the cve-2014-1544? its already fixed on ubuntu (even its not using iceweasel and icedove, but firefox and thunderbird) http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2014/CVE-2014-1544.html
[18:53] <shibboleth> OerHeks: my bad, seems that debian were the slow ones this time
[18:53] <OerHeks> :-)
[18:53] <shibboleth> k1l_: i was, nss is used by pidgin among others
[18:53] <k1l_> ah, OerHeks beat me to it :)
[18:54] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: "libcuda" does not contain the string "nvidia" :) You installed it, thats how it got there.
[18:54] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I got a new error!  This must be progress!  When the error message popped up before I had (technically) a working X session, as in an X cursor and I could move around my mouse.  But all I could get on screen was that message.  Now, I have a little table asking me What would you like to do
[18:54] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, good point lol
[18:55] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, The four choices in the dialog box: Run in low graphics mode for just one session; Reconfigure graphics; Troubleshoot the error; and Exit to console login;
[18:55] <PinkPanther> @bekks; did you get both pieces of information you requested?
[18:57] <wonton> Devs give up on fixing bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1259339
[18:57] <wonton> ?
[18:58] <wonton> http://xubuntu.org/news/screen-locking-in-xubuntu-14-04/ Known Issue.
[18:58] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Run in low graphics mode for just one session, change to a console, and proceed.
[18:58] <bekks> wonton: "fix released"? :)
[18:58] <Naphatul_> it's definitely not fixed
[18:58] <wonton> bekks, Doesn't work
[18:59] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, proceed with what?
[18:59] <wonton> Too many people still reporting it.
[18:59] <bekks> wonton: Did you add that as a comment to the bug?
[18:59] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: With fixing your graphic driver issues? :)
[18:59] <wonton> I reported it 5 or so times.
[18:59] <bekks> wonton: To the same bug?
[19:00] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, Oh, I've been doing all of this over ssh from a laptop anyways :P
[19:00] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, Also, trying to run in low graphics mode just gave me nothing.  Now I don't even have X. I'm going to remove that cuda package and then reboot
[19:00] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Why reboot?
[19:01] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Uninstall cuda, and install a proper nvidia driver.
[19:02] <Jordan_U> wonton: How did you report it?
[19:04] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I always had this impression that rebooting reloaded the kernel modules and that made a difference, but maybe not?
[19:04] <PinkPanther> bekks anything found wrong on the config?
[19:04] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: How would that fix your issue?
[19:05] <anurizm> is it possible to download ubuntu on a late 2009 macbook and use it as the sole OS
[19:05] <anurizm> i don't need OS X at all and just want to use ubuntu
[19:05] <reisio> don't see why not
[19:05] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, i guess it wouldn't :P  Um, It says that libcuda1-331 package isn't actually installed...just a candidate (according to apt-cache policy).  But that doesn't jive with dpkg -l
[19:05] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: dpkg -l | grep -i cuda
[19:06] <wonton> It's listed as a known issue on the release notes. No one should have to file another bug report on it. I've followed the bug as devs have written it off as fixed multiple times.
[19:06] <aukaicue> how do I get the black square menu in the top left hand corner to stop popping up when I use my Alt and Win keys ??

[19:09] <wonton> There was another one regarding thinkpad x220 hardware specifically
[19:09] <wonton> as a few of us reporting this have the same hardware
[19:09] <wonton> csan't find that report offhand
[19:09] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, apt says it's not installed
[19:09] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: What does "dpkg -l | grep -i cuda" say?
[19:10] <ANurizm> guys I'm back, I'm the guy who wants to install ubuntu on my macbook
[19:10] <ANurizm> i crashed out
[19:10] <ANurizm> did anyone respond to my prior post
[19:10] <wonton> bekks, neither.
[19:10] <bekks> wonton: So add your comments to the original bug, where devs are working on :)
[19:10] <ANurizm> i want to install either ubuntu or linux mint on my macbook late 2009 and use it as the sole OS. i don't want to dual boot. just linux.
[19:11] <ANurizm> any options?
[19:11] <gix0> is it an intel macbook or one of the earlier ppc ones?
[19:11] <ANurizm> intel
[19:11] <wonton> bekks, I lied, I did on both. I was just trying to see if you were going to blame me for not commenting on a well reported  bug :P
[19:11] <gix0> yeap, done it before
[19:11] <gix0> with ubuntu
[19:11] <DJ> Hi all, is anyone available to help with an ubuntu server VM problem?
[19:11] <gix0> fairly straight forward
[19:11] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, I'm not sure what the rc means? http://paste.ubuntu.com/9011029/
[19:11] <gix0> had an issue with wifi i think
[19:11] <gix0> had to get some drivers
[19:11] <ANurizm> here are the specs (except I upgraded it to 4GB RAM)- http://support.apple.com/kb/sp579
[19:12] <wonton> Everyone: Raise your hand if the black screen of death bug still affects you.
[19:12]  * wonton raises hand.
[19:12] <bubbasaures> DJ, Here you state the issues for help.
[19:12] <Apastrix> Hello, i'm new to ubuntu and need some help!
[19:12] <ANurizm> i tried ubuntu but it had glitches. the boot logo was an ugly white box and it didn't reboot. i had to shut off and start up manually gix0
[19:12] <SchrodingersScat> !ask | Apastrix
[19:12] <bekks> wonton: Polls are not helping anyone.
[19:12] <wonton> haha
[19:12] <Naphatul_> wonton, just install the normal screenlock
[19:12] <Naphatul_> it's been broken for at least 7 months
[19:12] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Removed but configuration not removed.
[19:13] <gix0> @ANurizm if I'm not mistaken, i downloaded and burned an ISO called 'alternative installer'
[19:13] <DJ> Thank you Bubba: The issue I am having is a failure to connect PostgreSQL to MySQL Workbench. I am virtualizing Ubuntu Server 14.04 with Oraclebox VM. I can give portforwarding forwarding information to anyone who would be kind enough to help!
[19:13] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, How can I address that?
[19:13] <wonton> Naphatul_, Yea. I may. I adjusted my habit unfortunately and lock it before I close the screen and have set the xrand shortcut.
[19:14] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: sudo apt-get purge libcuda1-331 ?
[19:14] <bubbasaures> DJ, You can also tab complete nicks so they are correct, one is notified of a message this way.
[19:14] <gix0> @ANurizm have you by any chance looked at this --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[19:14] <wonton> Had to configure logind.conf to override broken power-manager settings.
[19:14] <DJ> I'm sorru Bubba I do not understand I am new to IRC. could you please explain what that means?
[19:15] <shyamsk> 14.10 takes a longer time to boot & also crashes a lot more. Is this a known issue?
[19:15] <bekks> wonton: So add your workaround to the original bug report, so it can be helpful for others, too.
[19:15] <Apastrix> Ok, so problem1: i look on the right, and i see that the update manager needs  509 updates! how can i download only what i need?
[19:15] <bubbasaures> !tab | DJ
[19:15] <wonton> bekks, It's already listed,
[19:15] <wonton> Spinning the same wheel I'm afraid.
[19:15] <wonton> I got the workaround from the threads.
[19:16] <bubbasaures> DJ, You are doing fine, just giving you info for best communications here is all.
[19:16] <DJ> bubbasaures, ubottu got it! thank you!
[19:16] <bubbasaures> ;)
[19:16] <bprompt> DJ:     "bubb"<tab press>     <--- pressing tab several times... loops through all possible existing nicks with those letters
[19:17] <BluesKaj> Apastrix, how do you know what it is that you don't need ?
[19:17] <shyamsk> The system just goes to sleep after hanging up. Any help debugging it?
[19:17] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, This a vanilla install, the details are the key here.
[19:18] <DJ> in oracle I've bound port 5432 to 127.0.0.1 -> 10.0.2.15
[19:18] <Apastrix> I read some of the stuff, and it says things like python, and for sure i don't need python stuff, it feels like it wans to download everything on every topic lol
[19:18] <DJ> to no avail
[19:18] <shyamsk> Bubbasaures,  vanilla install?
[19:19] <bekks> DJ: To which port of 10.0.2.15ß
[19:19] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, ok, that did it (also, now I feel silly).  Doesn't seem to to have helped though.  304 is installed according to dpkg.  It also installed nvidia settings 331 but there doesn't appear to be another candidate though
[19:19] <OerHeks> Apastrix, yes you want it, 'cos it is free
[19:19] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, That is code for a basic install not really modified, hopefully update and upgraded.
[19:19] <bekks> JokesOnYou77: Well, you said you want to install 173?
[19:20] <DJ> bekks, i10.0.2.15:5432 Looking into this problem I see this is the default port for postgres to run on
[19:20] <DJ> http://askubuntu.com/questions/549674/help-connecting-ubuntu-server-14-04-vm-postgres-to-sql-workbench-on-localhost
[19:20] <DJ> I've also posted to  on Ask Ubuntu
[19:20] <JokesOnYou77> I tried that before though.  It didn't work either.  I'll try again now that everything is purged.
[19:20] <bekks> DJ: And you have to enable postgres to listen on that port, which it doesnt by default on other IPs than 127.0.0.1 (localhost of your guest).
[19:20] <Apastrix> So i need to download all the 509 things? isn't there a way to for exemple download only the security stuff?
[19:21] <shyamsk> I just upgraded. Sudo apt-get dust-up grade is what I did.
[19:21] <DJ> bekks, so to clarify in the /etc/postgresql/start.conf I need to make a change that tells the software to listen to 127.0.0.1:5432?
[19:22] <bubbasaures> Apastrix, I would not mess with what the OS needs in updates, that is a fools road unless you know exactly what you're doing.
[19:22] <bekks> DJ: No. You need to tell it that it should listen on 10.0.2.15:5432 instead of 127.0.0.1:5432
[19:22] <bubbasaures> even than a waste of time really
[19:23] <che757> so i have another really noob question. i'm trying to download a .nzb file from usenet, and i'm using sabnzbd which apparently runs inside of firefox. anyways when I try and download the nzb it tries to open in firefox, and I click browse but I have no idea where the executable for sannzbd is on my computer (also the search function doesn't seem to work). Any ideas?
[19:23] <che757> kubuntu 14.04
[19:24] <shyamsk> Bubbasaures, how would I debug this? /var/log?
[19:24] <DJ> bekks:would this be done in /etc/postgresql/9.2/main editing postgresql.cnf?
[19:24] <DJ> Bekks: Does this notify you of my message in red?
[19:25] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, I would look on the web with the hardware and computer model myself this may be a known issue, could be a graphic issue. AS far as the crashes you need to give details is all.
[19:25] <Apastrix> Ok that's problem1, problem 2, i just bought the laptop yesterday with ubuntu 12.04 presintalled, the screen looks funky and after searching around i found that in details the graphics are unknown, i guess this means ubuntu is not recognizing my GPU, so how to proceed?
[19:25] <bekks> DJ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostgreSQL#Managing_the_Server
[19:25] <bekks> DJ: Yes, it does hilight me, but not in red, due to the configuration of my IRC client :)
[19:26] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, Might be a debug, just not sure what it is.
[19:26] <DJ> bekks: #superuser
[19:27] <bubbasaures> Apastrix, Who installed ubuntu on the computer?
[19:27] <Apastrix> The computer is Dell, and it came preinstalled.
[19:28] <bubbasaures> Apastrix, Ah a dell good, I would contact them, my concern was it was an install by other than a OEM.
[19:28] <daftykins> Apastrix: i don't think the system info saying 'unknown' is actually an issue.
[19:28] <shyamsk> Bubbasaures, guess so. Maybe third party drivers are required. But that should only be an issue if it's a fresh install, right?
[19:29] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, Anything can happen at any time is a closer assumption. ;)
[19:29] <JokesOnYou77> bekks, no such luck.
[19:30] <nopf> Apastrix: what *is* the GPU?
[19:30] <Apastrix> NVIDIA geforce that's all what i know since it's on the sticker .
[19:31] <DJ> bekks: Question - Why would I configure postgres to listen on 10.0.2.15:5432 when that's the IP of the Virtual Server, Shouldn't it be listening fro traffic from my computers ilocalhost/loopback network (127.0.0.1) where SQL Workbench is running??
[19:31] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, This is an area I would have to guess in or cruise the web, so not really is it in my frontal lobes.
[19:31] <streulma> hello, I have a HP computer, but the fan is loud
[19:31] <nopf> Apastrix: in general if you don't want 3d game performance, you can ignore the GPU driver thing
[19:31] <shyamsk> Bubbasaures, yeah guess so. I'll Google make and model. How that helps
[19:32] <bekks> DJ: 127.0.0.1 is a localhost - it cant be access from anywhere else not even from yourt vm host. So you need to configure postgres to listen on the IP of the guest (10.0.2.15) and then create a portforwarding.
[19:32] <bekks> DJ: thats why you need to reconfigure postgres.
[19:34] <Apastrix> I'm gonna do some heavy simulation for it, it's for studying, so i really need the graphics card working, besides the screen looks funky anyway.
[19:34] <Apastrix> with it*
[19:34] <bubbasaures> shyamsk, This is a pretty good resource it has a search engine. http://askubuntu.com/
[19:34] <streulma> I think the fan is loud about the graphics card...
[19:34] <PinkPanther> @beeks, thank you for the assist at this point I just disabled bonding and move back to one interface. Perhaps another day.
[19:34] <streulma> Nvidia
[19:35] <DJ> bekks: so next steps are identify what postgres is listening to and change it to the servers "external" IP and Software port for postgres?
[19:35] <bubbasaures> !tab | PinkPanther
[19:35] <shyamsk> Bubbasaures, yeah I know :-)
[19:37] <OerHeks> Apastrix, go to the driver menu and see if there is one ( or more) driver available
[19:37] <bekks> DJ: Without configuration, postgres is listening to 127.0.0.1
[19:38] <DJ> bekks: thank you! I see that and have changed the "listen_addresses" to 10.0.2.15 the port is still 5432. testing now!
[19:38] <devhost> I'm compiling the linux kernal with a patch to TIPC, and after I installed the kernal, TIPC was missing.
[19:39] <devhost> How can I configure TIPC to be added to the compile?

[19:46] <bekks> devildog31415: Yes.
[19:46] <Apastrix> Ok, i went to additional drivers, and indeed it's not showing anything, i guess my Graphic card is working even though it's labeled as unknown, Is there some way to check if it is indeed working, some command maybe?

[19:50] <HappyNewYear13> from here: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/11/install-brightness-indicator-in-ubuntu-13-10-saucy/
[19:50] <bekks> devildog31415: stat, hledger, etc.
[19:51] <HappyNewYear13> i was able to install it on 14.04 and it worked also on 14.10. but now i have 14.10 from scratch and i can't get it
[19:51] <DJ> bekks: after complete restart same problem. I have verified my settings
[19:51] <niLuvU> anyone uses Openmailbox here ?
[19:52] <niLuvU> anyone uses Openmailbox here ? If so kindly try login and see it works ?
[19:52] <bekks> DJ: did you verify postgres is accepting connection on 10.0.2.15:5432 ?
[19:52] <OerHeks> Apastrix, how do you see that it is 'unknown'?  and what is lspci saying? open terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[19:52] <DJ> bekks: i'm not sure how to tdo that
[19:52] <HappyNewYear13> if someone replies to me here on xchat i get a blue message icon on the top bar (thunderbird icon) it wasnt like that before. now that's really cool
[19:52] <bekks> DJ: by using a postgres client on your guest vm.
[19:52] <devildog31415> bekks: awesome... thank you.. can you please help me understand your point "c" which was: the secondssince variable will not contain an integer after a daychange  (I'm afraid I don't understand how 2 numbers, both seconds since epoch wouldn't be integers?)
[19:52] <HappyNewYear13> i thought someone sent me an email
[19:53] <DJ> bekks: isn't that what SQL workbench is?
[19:53] <bekks> devildog31415: that statemen you used there will not work when the day is changed.
[19:53] <HappyNewYear13> do you guys have trouble saving the brithness in your laptops. unity utopic here
[19:53] <bekks> DJ: As long as sql workbench is not running inside your guest - it isnt a local postgres client.
[19:54] <bekks> HappyNewYear13: "No."
[19:54] <HappyNewYear13> bekks, did you install brightness-indicator?
[19:54] <devildog31415> bekks: If I take the current seconds since epoch and subtract (date modified of the file, since epoch) wouldn't that be an integer regardless of a day change.. I must be truely missing something obvious/fundamental
[19:54] <Apastrix> I see it in: system sittings > details > Graphic unknown , the command you gave me shows: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 0a16 (rev 0b)
[19:54] <DJ> bekks: sql work bench is running on the VM host, I'm trying to make a host to VM connection  (windows 7)
[19:54] <bekks> HappyNewYear13: No.
[19:55] <bekks> DJ: So it is not _local_ postgres client inside your vm.
[19:55] <HappyNewYear13> does lenovo has a good reputation? who's better lenovo or HP? which one you'd choose?
[19:55] <DJ> bekks: correct. nothing but postgres and Ubu server are running in a VM. The workbench software is running on my desktop
[19:56] <reisio> HappyNewYear13: for a cheap computer, HP
[19:56] <reisio> HappyNewYear13: but they'd both be fine most likely
[19:56] <compdoc> lenovo is good stuff
[19:56] <HappyNewYear13> 1 vs 1
[19:56] <bekks> DJ: So use a local postgres client inside your vm to check the proper postgres setup.
[19:56] <HappyNewYear13> compdoc, i just bought my first lenovo
[19:56] <reisio> you have to realize they're both VARs: http://tuxmobil.org/laptop_oem.html
[19:57] <HappyNewYear13> reisio, what brand is your current personal laptop?
[19:57] <reisio> but I've had very good experiences with dead cheap HP's and Compaq's (also HP)
[19:57] <reisio> HappyNewYear13: doesn't matter, I bought the cheapest one I could find
[19:57] <HappyNewYear13> compaqs were sweeeeeeeeeeeet
[19:57] <DJ> bekks: like package postgresql-client?
[19:57] <reisio> and if I bought one with an unlimited budget, the brand would not factor into the choice
[19:57] <HappyNewYear13> reisio, please tell me the brand
[19:57] <reisio> I have very specific picky hardware requirements :p
[19:57] <reisio> it's an acer chromebook
[19:58] <skyfall> at what possibe conditions does a channel do not get connected  ?
[19:58] <reisio> also had good experience with cheap Acers, as it happens
[19:58] <reisio> skyfall: ?
[19:58] <skyfall> im unable to join a channel.
[19:58] <bekks> DJ: e.g., yes.
[19:58] <DJ> bekks: again I apologize I am new to this
[19:58] <skyfall> so i would ike to know why.\
[19:58] <devildog31415> bekks: ?
[19:58] <skyfall> reisio, any idea ?
[19:59] <Jordan_U> skyfall: Please ask general freenode/IRC questions in #freenode.
[19:59] <devildog31415> bekks: it looks like we all want your time :(
[19:59] <reisio> skyfall: what channel?
[19:59] <skyfall> ok
[19:59] <bekks> devildog31415: Do you use full paths for all commands you are using in your script?
[19:59] <devildog31415> bekks: I'm fixing that now.
[20:01] <OerHeks> Apastrix, what is tht FULL output?
[20:01] <Surendil> hi people
[20:01] <devildog31415> bekks: I now have full path to hledger, mail, journal file, etc.. so "yes"
[20:02] <DJ> bekks: psql is saying FATAL: role "root" does not exist, does this mean I need to create a user in postgresql or use a switch like psql -u root -p and then supply my password
[20:02] <bekks> devildog31415: To stat, too, etc?
[20:02] <bekks> DJ: You need to configure postgres and setup a working database.
[20:02] <Surendil> is there any app for watching netflix on ubuntu?
[20:03] <devildog31415> bekks: <sheepishly>: um,, yes (as of just now) :-\
[20:03] <OerHeks> Surendil, yes, it is called chrome https://insights.ubuntu.com/2014/10/10/watch-netflix-in-ubuntu-today/
[20:03] <HappyNewYear13> haha
[20:03] <HappyNewYear13> why would you pay to watch movies and series
[20:04] <HappyNewYear13> americans
[20:04] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, stop that please.
[20:04] <HappyNewYear13> OerHeks, sorry
[20:04] <Surendil> HappyNewYear13: i don't use netflix, also, not from north america either.
[20:05] <Apastrix> OerHeks, yes it was.
[20:05] <devildog31415> bekks: can you help me understand point "c"?
[20:05] <OerHeks> Apastrix, no it wasn't.
[20:06] <Surendil> OerHeks: thanks for the link, i'll check it out!
[20:06] <EriC^^> devildog31415: the syntax is wrong
[20:06] <EriC^^> what's the link to your script again?
[20:06] <EriC^^> devildog31415: you need to use variable=`expr .... `
[20:07] <DJ> bekks: bleh I have to step away for a bit. Thanks for all  your help I will look into configuring psql tonight and attempt it! thanks!
[20:09] <Apastrix> OerHeks, look, it's my first day with ubuntu, i entered the command like it was given, and the terminal spelled just one line, does it mean the graphics is not working? because i run a system test on graphics now, and ubuntu said that everything is ok.
[20:09] <OerHeks> Apastrix, there should be more than this > Intel Corporation Device 0a16 (rev 0b)
[20:10] <devildog31415> EriC^^: original without changes just added: http://fpaste.org/150867/
[20:11] <devildog31415> I'm confused because my secondssince ="/usr/bin/expr `/bin/date +%s` - `/usr/bin/stat -c %Y /home/sgabriel/Dropbox/apps/hledger/data/financial/sgabriel.journal.txt`"               which I thought is what you are saying I should have
[20:11] <Apastrix> OerHeks, ok wait a second, i will try to make a screenshot and post it.
[20:12] <EriC^^> devildog31415: you need to use ` instead of "
[20:13] <EriC^^> devildog31415: so it runs expr
[20:13] <devildog31415> EriC^^: like this: secondssince=`/usr/bin/expr `/bin/date +%s` - `/usr/bin/stat -c %Y /home/sgabriel/Dropbox/apps/hledger/data/financial/sgabriel.journal.txt``      (notice double single tick at very end)
[20:13] <devildog31415> ?
[20:15] <peyam> anybody uses ubuntu with dual screen?
[20:15] <EriC^^> devildog31415:  `/usr/bin/expr $(/bin/date +%s) - $(/usr/bin/stat -c %Y /home/sgabriel/Dropbox/apps/hledger/data/financial/sgabriel.journal.txt)`
[20:15] <bekks> peyam: What if?
[20:15] <OerHeks> peyam,  yes, with Nvidia gt430
[20:16] <peyam> does the panel bar on the top goes whole way  through both screens? or does it end at the first one and starts again on the second onitor?
[20:16] <OerHeks> peyam, depends, if you mirror it, if not, you will have 2 bars yes
[20:17] <devildog31415> EriC^^: thank you.. what is the necessity of the $() around date and stat.... so that I can understand why I would need to think of that for next time
[20:17] <peyam> OerHeks, so it doesnt go throu both like in Xfce? you will se the notification bar on both screens?
[20:17] <bekks> devildog31415: COMMAND=/bin/date; RESULT=$(/bin/date)
[20:18] <OerHeks> peyam, i am not on XFCE
[20:18] <ktok> kanenas apo ellada?
[20:18] <devildog31415> $() means "do this and apply the value here".. ?
[20:18] <peyam> OerHeks, I said "like in xfce"
[20:18] <OerHeks> peyam give us more info, waht videocard, what desktop etc
[20:18] <EriC^^> devildog31415: $() is like ``
[20:18] <Apastrix> Sorry firefox and two other softwares freezed (my first encounter with linux freezing), is there something like the task manager in linux? or should i go ahead and restart the computer?
[20:18] <TheNumb> devildog31415: more like, place the output here
[20:18] <peyam> OerHeks, its a unity issue. not hardware. wait i explain it to you with a pic
[20:19] <HappyNewYear13> was able to install my brightness indicator now  ^_^ thank u all
[20:19] <TheNumb> devildog31415: you could also use "` `" like EriC^^ suggested, but $() is easier to escape.
[20:19] <OerHeks> peyam, i have 2 seperate desktops, not mirrored, and both have that top panel, so i can watch time on both
[20:19] <OerHeks> if that answeres your question
[20:19] <peyam> OerHeks, http://i.imgur.com/YTV7p.jpg do you see the clock is on both and not on the right screen
[20:20] <devildog31415> this is awesome.. thank you for the help.  am I still missing the point on the "not an integer" if the day has changed or is that logic ok?  I thought it would be an integer
[20:20] <peyam> OerHeks, aha okej. I got the answer. thanks :)
[20:21] <EriC^^> devildog31415: we used $() instead of `` because you can't have ``do this` + `do this`` ( can't be nested) but you can have nested $($())
[20:21] <EriC^^> devildog31415:  this could work too $(/usr/bin/expr $(/bin/date +%s) - $(/usr/bin/stat -c %Y /home/sgabriel/Dropbox/apps/hledger/data/financial/sgabriel.journal.txt))
[20:21] <OerHeks> peyam, odd, ... see mine > http://i.imgur.com/i8sdLmp.png
[20:22] <sky-fall> what does  SATA link power Managment stands for ?
[20:22] <devildog31415> EriC^^: thank you.   I think my only lingering confusion is over bekks saying "the secondssince variable will not contain an integer after a daychange."
[20:22] <OerHeks> peyam goto system settings > time / date > and see if you can enable it, make sure you are in the screen without time
[20:22] <peyam> OerHeks, yes you can make it so there is two panels. thats not the issue. the issue for me is that i dont want to see clock on both
[20:22] <bekks> sky-fall: For a power management facility implemented by SATA.
[20:23] <OerHeks> or disable it, independently
[20:23] <peyam> OerHeks, cant be done
[20:23] <sky-fall> bekks, its showing bad in the tunables while i checed using powertop . why you thin it is so ?
[20:24] <niram> hi, any idea how i can run systemd services on ubuntu 14.04 ?
[20:24] <OerHeks> peyam,  i just checked, if i disable one, it disables both
[20:24] <rangergord> Hi. I would like to set a user (not system) environment variable for a non-interactive shell. Adding it in .bashrc makes it work when I open Terminal (I presume that's what interactive shell is), but the build tool I'm trying to get it to work with doesn't see it.
[20:24] <peyam> yes. but i want the clock be on the second one. only
[20:24] <bekks> sky-fall: BEcause I know that SATA implements power management technologies, which doesnt mean you can even see them using powertop.
[20:25] <OerHeks> peyam don't know how to swap that
[20:26] <devildog31415> Eric^^: bekks:  is my final point of confusion a rude question or am I being impatient?
[20:26] <EriC^^> devildog31415: i believe it will contain an integer
[20:26] <devildog31415> EriC^^: thank you
[20:27] <EriC^^> devildog31415: type echo `date +%s` && touch bla && sleep 2 && echo `stat -c %Y bla`
[20:28] <devildog31415> bekks: thank you as well!  you have all been invaluable (you to TheNumb)!
[20:28] <bekks> devildog31415: you're welcome :)
[20:28] <EriC^^> devildog31415: the logic in the
[20:28] <EriC^^> script doesn't make sense though
[20:28] <TheNumb> devildog31415: you're most welcome (:
[20:28] <EriC^^> cause it says secondssince < minseconds
[20:28] <EriC^^> shouldn't it be secondssince > minseconds ?
[20:29] <devildog31415> EriC^^: someone in my office.. will answer in 5
[20:29] <EriC^^> ok
[20:30] <brent> heyas
[20:30] <EriC^^> sorry, sleep 2 should be before the touch bla if you want to try it out
[20:32] <brent> how would i go about searching current directory for files with "cat" in it and moving results to a folder called "cat"
[20:33] <SchrodingersScat> brent: # find . -iname "cat" -exec mv {} /foo/bar # ???
[20:34] <EriC^^> brent: you need to use *cat*
[20:34] <KKEm> hello, do someone know a good data recovery tool with linux?
[20:34] <EriC^^> find . -iname "*cat*" -exec mv '{}' /path/to/cat \;
[20:34] <bprompt> hmmm
[20:35] <EriC^^> KKEm: testdisk
[20:35] <KKEm> thanks :)
[20:35] <EriC^^> KKEm: no problem
[20:35] <KKEm> i changed partition on the drive nothing else
[20:36] <KKEm> do you think it will work EriC^^
[20:36] <EriC^^> KKEm: should work, ask around here if you need any help
[20:36] <EriC^^> KKEm: yeah, it should
[20:36] <KKEm> cool, that is wonderful
[20:36] <KKEm> ill keep that in mind :)
[20:37] <brent> thanks SchrodingersScat, EriC^^  =)
[20:37] <brent> will give it a shot
[20:39] <brent> curious to know, for the  mv '{}' /path/to/cat \; is there a way to use current location to that and add /cat \;
[20:40] <EriC^^> find . -iname "*cat*" -exec mv '{}' '{}'/cat \;
[20:40] <vAd0r> I followed this guide http://importgeek.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/install-configure-and-test-tftp-server-in-ubuntu/ for setting up tftp. My server did not have a nobody group. I created this in /etc/group nobody:x:99:
[20:40] <vAd0r> when i try to tftp from my router i get %Error opening tftp://192.168.1.253/lab1-confg (Permission denied). can someone tell me what im doing wrong
[20:40] <brent> your a pro eric ;)
[20:41] <EriC^^> brent: that won't work
[20:42] <brent> ok i was about to try
[20:42] <EriC^^> brent: you can copy the files but moving won't work
[20:42] <EriC^^> ah wait, it actually will work nevermind
[20:43] <EriC^^> :D
[20:43] <EriC^^> ( just can't move the parent directory )
[20:45] <brent> if my "moving to path" has a space in it do i need to add 'for the space'
[20:45] <brent> how would that work
[20:45] <bekks> brent: you have to use ""
[20:46] <bekks> brent: "file name with spaces in it.txt"
[20:46] <brent> hehe
[20:46] <EriC^^> brent: it should work, we used '{}'
[20:46] <brent> ok
[20:47] <LargePrime> I have a question about using iproute2 to add ip addresses to my dedicated server.  Anyone with experience, or can link a guide, or can say what I should search for please advise.
[20:47] <LargePrime> 14.04
[20:47] <bekks> LargePrime: How about asking your question instead asking to ask a question? :)
[20:47] <vAd0r> I asked a ?. :)
[20:48] <vAd0r> im thinking it is something to do w/ the nobody setup
[20:48] <LargePrime> how do i add ip addresses to my dedicates server using iprout2?
[20:48] <vAd0r> ip addresses are different than routes
[20:48] <LargePrime> and will it survive a reboot?
[20:48] <bekks> LargePrime: iproute adds routes, not ip addresses.
[20:48] <LargePrime> is not part of iproute2 "ip addr add"
[20:49] <LargePrime> https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-iproute2-tools-to-manage-network-configuration-on-a-linux-vps
[20:49] <LargePrime> To adjust the addresses associated with the interfaces, we again use the ip addr subcommand.
[20:49] <LargePrime> quoting a\the above link
[20:50] <bekks> LargePrime: when using a digitalocean vps, it'd be better to ask digitalocean on how to configure it.
[20:50] <LargePrime> not using thier VPS
[20:50] <LargePrime> trying to figgure iprout2 out
[20:51] <bekks> LargePrime: So basically you want to configure a static ip address on an Ubuntu?
[20:52] <LargePrime> 14.04 yes.  i have several i would like to add to my dedicated box via SSh
[20:52] <bekks> LargePrime: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/network-configuration.html
[20:53] <LargePrime> is not the ifup command depreciated?
[20:54] <bekks> LargePrime: That guide is for 14.04
[20:55] <vAd0r> goto /etc/network/interface file and edit it.
[20:56] <LargePrime> bekks: nothing in that guide addresses adding multipul ips to a dedicated server
[20:56] <vAd0r> Can someone help me figure out why my tftp server will not allow me to connect
[20:56] <vAd0r> LargePrime: do you want multiple ips on 1 interface or separate interfaces
[20:56] <LargePrime> one interface
[20:57] <vAd0r> why
[20:57] <devildog31415> EriC^^: thought they were never going to leave my office :)
[20:57] <nbuonanno> LargePrime: Is this the same question you had earlier? Out of curiosity, did you have any luck setting up virtual interfaces?
[20:57] <bekks> LargePrime: http://askubuntu.com/questions/313877/how-do-i-add-an-additional-ip-address-to-etc-network-interfaces
[20:57] <KKEm> EriC^^ im in testdisk_win.exe right now
[20:58] <KKEm> EriC^^: im in chose partition
[20:58] <devildog31415> EriC^^: no, I think my logic is sound.. "secondssince" is how many seconds it has been since the file was last modified... and if the file was modified LESS THAN minseconds(1 day worth of seconds) then send me an email because there have been accounting journal entries made
[20:58] <vAd0r> You will not be able to add a secondary ip address that is on the same subnet. It will overlap
[20:59] <bekks> vAd0r: Nonsense.
[20:59] <bekks> vAd0r: You can easily setup multiple ip addresses from within the same subnet.
[20:59] <vAd0r> what is the point
[20:59] <vAd0r> on a router you can not do this
[20:59] <furkan> anybody here use the wine ppa on ubuntu 14.04? i use evernote and steam, and both used to show their icons in the system tray, but for the past few weeks they've disappeared. not sure if it's something that changed with wine or with unity
[20:59] <bekks> vAd0r: a router is something different.
[21:00] <vAd0r> Can you assist me w/ tftp server
[21:00] <EriC^^> devildog31415: oh ok
[21:00] <EriC^^> KKEm: ok, did you do analyze then quick search?
[21:01] <KKEm> EriC^^: i chooced intel/pc partition, works fine now
[21:01] <KKEm> 01%
[21:02] <bekks> vlad_starkov: sudo apt-get install inetutils-inetd tftpd-hpa
[21:02] <KKEm> EriC^^: i chooced quick search, should i stop it and take deeper search?
[21:02] <frigginglorious> Quick question for anyone familiar with Swap files encrypted partitions. I've been researching this for about an hour now, I just want a little confirmation before I potentially screw up my OS.
[21:02] <bekks> vlad_starkov: Sorry, tab fail.
[21:03] <jimmy51v_> anyone have a recommendation for Outlook 365 Mail/Calendar clients for ubuntu?
[21:03] <frigginglorious> jimmy51v_: Thunderbird all day
[21:03] <jimmy51v_> currently trying Thunderbird+lightning+davmail.  It's quite slow.
[21:03] <jimmy51v_> frigginglorious: how do you get calendar?
[21:03] <jimmy51v_> (and are you running davmail locally?)
[21:03] <reisio> jimmy51v_: evolution will probably have the most MS compatibility
[21:04] <frigginglorious> jimmy51v_: yeah, thunderbird seems to have some memory issues sometimes. I use google calandar for everything i need. I havent found a good solution for integrating them yet.
[21:05] <devildog31415> I have struggled with Thunderbird on 14.04 and evolution is rough.  I just do OWA and if I need deeper I just use our companies VDI or run a windows virtual in virtualbox.. (I know that isn't an answer, just sharing what I'm doing)
[21:05] <EriC^^> KKEm: did it find the partition you want?
[21:06] <KKEm> EriC^^ : not yet
[21:06] <jimmy51v_> devildog31415: it seems like quite a missing chunk of the workstation world.
[21:06] <KKEm> EriC^^ : its a 1 tb hdd
[21:06] <Blueer> i've many problems with ubuntu 14.04lts -> nginx webserver just crashes without logs ones a day -> newest php5-fpm crashes/hangs every day multiple times. it's running in a kvm mode.
[21:06] <jimmy51v_> i'm trying evolution right now but it doesn't seem to have exchange support... just IMAP
[21:06] <EriC^^> KKEm: it should find it pretty quickly, press enter then try the deep search
[21:06] <Blueer> now i'm thicking about switching to debian or centos :(
[21:07] <Blueer> still no bug reports
[21:07] <KKEm> EriC^^ : maybe i should wait for it to run done?
[21:07] <rvankleeck> hello. I'm having some issues with repositories. I'm getting "unmet dependencies" for already installed packages when I attempt to apt-get install anything
[21:07] <Blueer> didn't had so much problems with 12.04lts
[21:07] <rvankleeck> but the dependencies are already  met (or so it would seem)
[21:08] <bubbasaures> Blueer, That is #ubuntu-offtopic stuff.
[21:08] <rvankleeck> e.g.: lsb-release : Depends: python3:any (>= 3.3.2-2~), but python3: Installed: 3.4.0-0ubuntu2
[21:08] <Apastrix> Thanks for the help guys, i solved my problem with the graphic unknown thing, with the command: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
[21:08] <frigginglorious> Anyone know why my /etc/fstab shows 2 swap files, (one is named cryptswap), but neither are mounted? Would I ruin my OS if I deleted one? Whats the safest way to get that swapfile mounted?
[21:09] <hollusion> hi guys, i have a problem running quake4. it doesnt matter whether i run quake4 (32bit) or quake4-smp (64 bit) i end up with: Sys_Error: Unable to initialize OpenGL. i am running on 64 bit linux mint debian and i have a GeForce 9600 GT/PCIe/SSE2 card, any ideas?
[21:09] <EriC^^> devildog31415: something seems fishy with the logic still
[21:09] <EriC^^> devildog31415: it will never not run i think
[21:09] <daftykins> !mint | hollusion
[21:09] <bekks> frigginglorious: Why do you want to mount it when wanting to get rid of it?
[21:10] <EriC^^> devildog31415: its checking every 10 hours for the seconds since the file was modified right
[21:10] <EriC^^> and it's always going to be less than 24 hours
[21:10] <Apastrix> I have another question, some programs froze, is there something like task manager in ubuntu, so i can close the frozen processes?
[21:10] <devildog31415> EriC^^: It checks every day at 1000 hours.
[21:10] <bekks> devildog31415: One day has 24 hours only.
[21:10] <EriC^^> devildog31415: ah, i misread that as */10
[21:10] <frigginglorious> bekks: I saw a bunch of forum posts, but no one else was showing 2 files in fstab. I don't really wanna try a sollution unless i can be sure my OS wont be ruined
[21:10] <devildog31415> the file was only modified if I did any journal entries
[21:11] <daftykins> Apastrix: system monitor
[21:11] <bekks> frigginglorious: Why do you want to remove it, actually?
[21:11] <devildog31415> if no journal entries in 24 hours then I already have the email from the previous day, don't send me an email
[21:11] <frigginglorious> bekks: is it dangerous to have 2? All I want is to have swap memory, so chrome quits crashing my computer when i use too many tabs :P
[21:12] <bekks> frigginglorious: No, it is not dangerous.
[21:12] <bekks> frigginglorious: Why do you think chrome crashes because of lacking swap?
[21:12] <Apastrix> daftykins, thanks i will use it
[21:13] <esde> I've got openvpn 2.3.5 installed from source on 14.04, and i can run openvpn with "openvpn". but when i run sudo service openvpn status i get "openvpn: unrecognized service". How can i install openvpn as a service?
[21:13] <devildog31415> EriC^^: and bekks: did that answer your question or do you think there is still an issue, because it wouldn't surprise me if I'm not thinking it through correctly since this is all new to me.. but I think I'm using the modified attribute correctly (I wouldn't want the "changed" attribute).  and I think the logic is sound of if seconds since changed is less than 24 hours, then send me balance summary because something has been added sinc
[21:13] <frigginglorious> bekks: Whenever memory fills up, it starts chugging till i close some tabs. In any browser, really. Sometimes it jsut locks up and i have to power it off manually.
[21:13] <bekks> devildog31415: I am sorry, I dont get your text at all.
[21:14] <devildog31415> bekks: no, I'm sorry
[21:14] <bekks> frigginglorious: Then why do you have so much tabs open? And how much RAM do you have?
[21:14] <devildog31415> let me write some sudo code
[21:14] <frigginglorious> bekks: 4gb definitely isnt enough RAM for my kinda multitasking
[21:14] <bekks> devildog31415: No sudo code whatsoever. I didnt get what you just wrote abot modified attributes and stuff.
[21:15] <jimmy51v_> ok... no go on evolution.
[21:15] <devildog31415> bekks: the fact that files have both a "modified" and a "changed" attribute in the file system.. and that "modified" refers to actual data changes to the file and "changed" refers to any changes even to the metadata of a file
[21:15] <jimmy51v_> if i were a billionare philanthropist i would fund a client side linux solution to work with Exchange
[21:16] <devildog31415> jimmy51v_: and since there is a Microsoft with billions and a closed source protocol they can just keep screwing your day up :(
[21:17] <jimmy51v_> devildog31415: hehe probably.  there are android apps that do it though, so it must be possible.
[21:17] <jimmy51v_> ex: mobimail
[21:17] <devildog31415> jimmy51v_: I'm ignorant and what is going on there (with android) but I think it has to do with Microsoft being required to license it out and Android pays for that?
[21:17] <bekks> devildog31415: Yes. :)
[21:18] <devildog31415> and what=on what
[21:18] <mydopey> Where can I find IRC for xrandr command
[21:19] <bubbasaures> mydopey, man xrandr
[21:19] <jimmy51v_> devildog31415: ah.  boo again
[21:20] <devildog31415> jimmy51v_: no argument here....
[21:20] <BluesKaj> esde, usually network manager gui is used to setup and run openvpn
[21:20] <mydopey> bubbasaures: I want to talk with someone about it not read about it.
[21:20] <devildog31415> everyone: thanks for your help today. I'm going to go home before it snows, play with the kiddos and jump back on here when everyone is asleep. ttfn
[21:21] <bubbasaures> mydopey, Than describe the issue is all.
[21:23] <shlant> anyone know how I can clear the screen when any user ssh's in ? ubuntu 14.04
[21:23] <shlant> I tried adding it to my MOTD but doesn't seem to work
[21:23] <brent> EriC^^,  im having trouble with that example you gave from earlier.. http://pastebin.com/NJ2bKxhr
[21:23] <mydopey> Issuing command xrandr output HDMI-0 --set overscan on. Creates a weird scaling problem.
[21:24] <EriC^^> shlant: you could add it to /etc/profile
[21:24] <EriC^^> ( clear )
[21:24] <mydopey> Issuing command xrandr output HDMI-0 --set overscan on. Creates a weird scaling problem. bubbasaures
[21:24] <brent> from what i understand it is trying to move the results to a folder with the results filename rather than the "currect directory/folder"
[21:25] <EriC^^> shlant: add "i know what you did last summer" and clear it, and put a %RANDOM in there, screw with their heads
[21:25] <bubbasaures> mydopey, Thanks, not sure myself, never used it that way, good info for help I would assume.
[21:26] <mydopey> Hard to describe. Like the display is squashed rather than scaled. bubbasaures
[21:26] <shlant> EriC^^: haha I will try that thanks
[21:26] <compdoc> shlant, you add or modify a file in /etc/update-motd.d   ?
[21:26] <bubbasaures> mydopey, Is this a simplified X like tiling?
[21:26] <alexThunder> can someone tell me how to use hybrid graphics with radeonsi / ubuntu 14.10? DRI_PRIM=1 glxinfo still shows intel and vgaswitcheroo tells my DynOff for the discrete graphics
[21:26] <shlant> compdoc: I am clearing out everything in there and adding my own script
[21:26] <shlant> I have it working
[21:27] <shlant> I jsut wanted to get clear working
[21:27] <compdoc> probably shouldnt delete all those files
[21:28] <brent> EriC^^,  find . -iname "*s01*" -exec mv '{}' '{}'/Season01 \; this isn't working.. is it trying to move the found "s01" files to a directory named "found-file-name/Season01"
[21:28] <mydopey> bubbasaures: all distros like ubuntu and opensuse. Hdmi output to tv has overscan. No settings on tv to remove it. The command fixes it. But it creates that problem. Its oss radeon.
[21:29] <EriC^^> brent: try -exec echo mv '{}' and see what's happening
[21:29] <Apastrix> Sorry, i have another important question, i downloaded gparted, and i have the current settings:( http://i548.photobucket.com/albums/ii324/hesuka17/Screenshotfrom2014-11-14221640.png) but i need my root to be in its own partition not with home, and when i searched around, i found that i need a live cd to do the partitioning, but i don't any Cds, ubuntu came pre-installed, how should i proceed?
[21:29] <jbrazy> lol
[21:30] <mydopey> Most monitors and some hdtv have a setting called pc mode. My hdtv does not,
[21:30] <brent> -exec command not found :/
[21:30] <EriC^^> brent: i think it's doing that
[21:31] <EriC^^> brent: we need to remove the file
[21:31] <bubbasaures> mydopey, Cool, pertinent details, just be sure to mention this hdmi to tv link, sorry I can't help more.
[21:31] <Apachez> where can I online get a copy of current /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt lets say from ubuntu 14.10 ?
[21:31] <brent> which file are we talking about?
[21:31] <EriC^^> /path/to/file
[21:31] <EriC^^> we need it as //path/to
[21:31] <EriC^^> you could use dirname
[21:32] <brent> oh ok
[21:32] <brent> so i'd need to use a full path
[21:32] <EriC^^> brent: is it recursive or just one directory?
[21:33] <brent> sadly i have 100's :(
[21:33] <brent> its one directory though
[21:33] <kahtahs> Apachez: launchpad
[21:36] <EriC^^> brent:  find . -iname "*s01*" -exec mv '{}' $(dirname '{}')/Season01 \;
[21:37] <rgenito_> what's the command to see what process is using a certain port?
[21:37] <rgenito_> can't remember :(
[21:37] <brent> EriC^^,  i just had a little success with this "find . -iname "*s01*" -exec mv '{}' ./Season01 \;"
[21:37] <EriC^^> brent: or that, i was going to say that
[21:37] <EriC^^> but the find is if you need the recursiveness
[21:37] <brent> which i will ;)
[21:37] <brent> champion EriC^^ !
[21:37] <EriC^^> brent: you can also for i in *s01*; do mv $i ./Season01; done
[21:38] <shlant> EriC^^: I was able to get it working by adding printf "\033c" to my MOTD :)
[21:38] <Spec> EriC^^: "$i" to handle spaces in filenames better
[21:38] <brent> what about casse sensitivity?
[21:38] <brent> often files had S01 and s01

[21:40] <LargePrime> nohaspaste
[21:41] <EriC^^> shlant: great :)
[21:43] <trism> rvankleeck: the hello package is as simple as it gets, but it might be better to just pastebin the full output of whatever you are trying to install
[21:43] <rvankleeck> trism, i'm testing installing from spacewalk. just wanted something that would be quick without a lot of extra stuff to it
[21:45] <brent> find . -iname "*[sS]01*" -exec mv $i ./Season01 \; this says mv: missing destination file operand after ‘./Season01’
[21:45] <Sia-> on mac is available using difrence keyboards in the Browser tabs. so is that possible in ubuntu too?
[21:46] <EriC^^> brent: no need for [sS] with find, iname is for ignore case :)
[21:46] <brent> ok gotcha
[21:46] <EriC^^> brent: with find -exec you need to use '{}'
[21:47] <brent> the $i is broken it :/ whats that suppose to do?
[21:47] <EriC^^> brent: for i in *[sS]s01*; do mv "$i" ./Season01; done
[21:48] <EriC^^> the $i is the variable, you can call it anything you want, for x in ... $x
[21:49] <EriC^^> brent: with find and -exec, {} means what it found
[21:49] <brent> ok thanks for that
[21:49] <EriC^^> brent: sorry, it's for i in *[sS]01*; do mv "$i" ./Season01; done
[21:50] <brent> hehe ok ill try that too
[21:51] <brent> perfect.
[21:51] <kahtahs> Apachez: so: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-utopic.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt
[21:54] <brent> final question for ya EriC^^ : (excuse this 2 line paste)
[21:55] <brent> for i in *[sS]01*; do mv "$i" ./Season01;
[21:55] <brent> for i in *[sS]02*; do mv "$i" ./Season02; done
[21:55] <brent> that doesnt work for me?
[21:55] <michele_> hi guys i've a serious problem with kworker
[21:55] <EriC^^> is there a done on the first one?
[21:56] <brent> lol i took it out becuase i wasnt "done" yet
[21:56] <brent> guess its needed
[21:56] <brent> haha
[21:56] <EriC^^> haha :D
[21:57] <EriC^^> ; done ; j/k ; ok, really done
[21:57] <brent> lol
[21:57] <brent> ty for you time and help
[21:57] <EriC^^> no problem :)
[21:57] <brent> and everyone else too
[21:57] <brent> you've saved me a lot of time
[21:57] <brent> so thanks!
[21:58] <EriC^^> michele_: what's up?
[21:58] <michele_> eric you helped me with this problem in past?
[21:58] <EriC^^> yes
[21:58] <michele_> oh my god *.*
[21:58] <michele_> i love you you are my saver
[21:58] <EriC^^> :D
[21:58] <daftykins> let me guess, a kworker thread trashing CPU/mem usage
[21:58] <michele_> i've formatted
[21:59] <EriC^^> michele_: i see
[21:59] <michele_> why this problem compare ever?
[22:00] <EriC^^> michele_: what do you mean?
[22:00] <michele_> when i format the problem appear another time
[22:01] <michele_> sorry for the english xD
[22:02] <EriC^^> michele_: yeah cause of the format the modifications disappeared
[22:03] <michele_> i must be backup when i solve
[22:03] <daftykins> or take notes of the solution
[22:04] <michele_> yea
[22:04] <EriC^^> michele_: open a terminal and type grep . -r /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/
[22:04] <EriC^^> paste it in paste.ubuntu.com, or use pastebinit
[22:05] <michele_> wait i'm using a old version of kernel
[22:05] <michele_> for an advice of the channel of support italian
[22:05] <michele_> now i restart wait
[22:05] <michele_> ok?
[22:05] <EriC^^> michele_: ok
[22:06] <brent> me again ;) i needed to check to see what happens when doing this: for i in *[sS]01*; do mv "$i" ./"Season 01"/; done with no Season 01 folder already made. And it gives an error saying: mv: cannot move ‘test.s01.mkv’ to ‘./Season 01/’: Not a directory
[22:06] <brent> is there a way to create a Season 01 folder if not made
[22:06] <dna113p> Hello. Wondering where I would go to disable Super-L to lock screen keybinding. I'm using Xubuntu.
[22:08] <daftykins> brent: are you not duplicating the work of a lot of media management programs? also, you're aware of the BASH channel yes? (just in case you ever need a backup place)
[22:09] <michele_> hey
[22:09] <cx405> Hello! Does today exist a method to remotely control Android device FROM Linux? My mother is in another country and using Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 2014 for example, and I use Linux Desktop. All I need is to support her remotely. Any ideas? This was pita in 2013 and up to today I cant find any answer. The only option so far is Teamviewer Support App, but it costs ~500$...
[22:09] <Naphatul_> dna113p, settings -> keyboard -> application shortcuts
[22:09] <Naphatul_> should be there
[22:10] <OerHeks> brent, i guess you do this in your /home folder, >>>>  for i in *[sS]01*; do mv "$i" ~/"Season 01"/; done
[22:10] <michele_> eric?
[22:10] <EriC^^> michele_: hey
[22:10] <michele_> ok i'm going to activate the kworker
[22:11] <EriC^^> ok
[22:11] <michele_> just doing a heavy operation
[22:11] <kostkon> cx405, team
[22:12] <cx405> Forgot to say - I dont want to root the tablet under any circumsances to NOT void the warranty. I am already thinking about selling the thing, because its such a disaster in remote support field.
[22:12] <kostkon> cx405, teamviewer is free fir personal use afaik
[22:12] <daftykins> cx405: teamviewer +1
[22:12] <bprompt> cx405:    what about skype?
[22:13] <kostkon> cx405, free on both linux and android
[22:13] <cx405> kostkon: No, teamviewer is completely out of question. TW only supports connecting TO android from windows/mac. However I managed to get it running in Wine. Linux version does not support it. But the mobile application in order to connect TO the android is not free and requires a license. For personal 4-6x use, 500$ is over the top.
[22:13] <michele_> eric where do you live?
[22:14] <cx405> bprompt: sorry, what about skype?
[22:15] <bprompt> cx405:     well.... what kind of support are you after?
[22:15] <daftykins> cx405: sounds like a more appropriate device would be wise.
[22:16] <cx405> I would use Teamviewer, I understand why one has to pay - its only option I suggest for them to pay Google to secure access device without UNrooting. I am okay with payware. But not 500$. That galaxy tab costed her 1000$. its half of device cost....
[22:16] <cx405> daftykins: Suggest one please. I am already thinking about buying her a notebook.... -_-
[22:17] <daftykins> cx405: sorry, no. i don't even run desktop Linux
[22:18] <cx405> bprompt: A remote session from Linux to Android, where I get remote control and view, so I can help her live with her mail and teach to use device. Its straight personal thing on only that device.
[22:18] <brent> OerHeks, its from /media/user/
[22:18] <gebruiker> how come flash is slower with linux than on windows?
[22:18] <EriC^^> brent: yeah, the directory needs to be created first with mv
[22:19] <k1l> gebruiker: ask adobe to make a good flash for linux :)
[22:19] <bprompt> cx405:    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wyse.pocketcloudfree     <--- does vnc    as the article ->  http://www.maketecheasier.com/remote-control-ubuntu-from-android-tablet/  points out
[22:19] <brent> ok so i should make the dir before the code
[22:19] <cx405> bprompt: ty, checking
[22:19] <EriC^^> brent: btw don't use ./Season01 if it's not created
[22:19] <michele_> the kworker don't want to appear lol
[22:20] <gebruiker> k1l, you a lawyer right? Can we sue them for not producing equalavent quality products for other platforms other than windows / mac ?
[22:20] <EriC^^> brent: it will move (rename) every file that matches to Season01, and you'll end up with 1 file called Season01
[22:20] <EriC^^> brent: i just tried it on a test dir, and went O.o
[22:20] <brent> yea i had the same problem
[22:21] <EriC^^> while testing it?
[22:21] <cx405> bprompt: Eh.. I dont want to control Ubuntu/Linux from Android, I want to control Android from Ubuntu.
[22:21] <brent> yea while testing. i was worried in a real worl env id lose my files
[22:21] <bprompt> cx405:    vnc does client/server access, both ways
[22:21] <EriC^^> ah ok
[22:22] <EriC^^> brent: good thing that you tested!
[22:22] <k1l> gebruiker: no i am not a lawyer and we cant sue them. you can just show them that it would be good to make a good linux one. adobe even stopped totally to make a linux one. google makes pepperflash now
[22:22] <brent> hehe yea
[22:22] <bprompt> cx405:    also.... btw... there's an   i386 android, that you can run off a liveUSB or install... I've used it... looked ok.... picked up my wifi connection as well, and I'd think you could find an RDP app for android to android
[22:23] <cx405> bprompt: nope. Not on non-rooted device. And I dont want to root 1000$ tablet. Even if I decide to, that tablet is in another country. And my mother under no circumstance can pull off that thing. If she could, then I would never need to assist her remotely. In fact, SHE would probably be hanging here around.
[22:23] <stoogenmeyer> hi im using lubuntu and i've got some weird issues after about 6 months of normal usage - my computer won't respond to me trying to suspend it. if i type suspend in the terminal nothing happens but if i go to a different terminal and type sudo pkill suspend it will go into suspend mode. after i come back from suspend though, my mouse cursor is gone (-: really weird
[22:23] <brent> EriC^^,  would mkdir solve this?
[22:23] <EriC^^> brent: yeah
[22:23] <brent> sweet
[22:24] <cx405> bprompt: Yes, I was thinking about this as an option. But other way around - to buy her a notebook, THEN install x86 android there. Yet.. It does not have Samsung interface (which makes all idea useless as I cant support her - device is different). And also, she cant set it up herself.
[22:26] <bprompt> cx405:    does she run windows by any chance?     there's an singleclick app for rooting an android device, runs on windows.. but only requries a couple of clicks
[22:26] <alexThunder> can someone tell me how to use hybrid graphics with radeonsi / ubuntu 14.10? DRI_PRIM=1 glxinfo still shows intel and vgaswitcheroo tells my DynOff for the discrete graphics
[22:28] <dna113p> Naphatul: That is what I would have thought, but it is not in setting > keyboard > application shortcuts... at least not that i can find
[22:28] <cx405> bprompt: No, I dont really want to do any rooting. Because of the risk alone. I mess this up and have a brick that I can only access in next ... 5 months? If this does not work out, Ill probably order her a notebook and guide her to install Ubuntu there.
[22:29] <michele_> why skype don't connect with microsoft account
[22:30] <bprompt> cx405:  hmmm where does it say "PocketCloud Remote
[22:30] <OerHeks> michele_, does it not? https://login.skype.com/login
[22:30] <bprompt> cx405:  hmmm where does it say "PocketCloud Remote" only works for rooted devices?
[22:31] <michele_> i've installed it on ubuntu 14.04
[22:31] <michele_> when i press microsoft account
[22:31] <michele_> it appear the message
[22:31] <michele_> of the slow connection -.-
[22:32] <cx405> bprompt: From what I read PocketCloud controls Workstation from Android. I want to control Android from Workstation. Damn, even being able to see and mark parts of screen live would be sufficient.
[22:35] <PLMg> hey, got a question that is driving me nuts and cannot fin the answer. So I installed ubuntu server 14.04.1 a few times today and the first time I installed it it booted up in a new nice gui that I did not recognise. (I checked the ubuntu desktop checkbox during install)
[22:35] <PLMg> had to install ubuntu again and this time with the same (almost) choices during install it booted up in unity gui
[22:36] <PLMg> what was that 1st gui that I encounterd? It looked a bit like the xubuntu gui.(as far as I can tell by searching gui in google images)
[22:36] <k1l> PLMg: so your issue is that you installed ubuntu-desktop and it installed a desktop?
[22:36] <EriC^^> PLMg: which iso are you using?
[22:37] <k1l> PLMg: see http://imgur.com/a/9iaLJ
[22:37] <PLMg> uhm, I got the ubuntu server 14.04.1 one
[22:37] <cx405> Well, so basically android is a feature limited garbage bin. :(
[22:38] <PLMg> it looks like Xfce
[22:38] <rgenito_> i'm wrestling with a pretty ... lame issue in ubuntu
[22:38] <rgenito_> when i try to log in as a user via shell, I get: bash: /media/rgenito/d81/s/acg/.bashrc: Permission denied
[22:38] <rgenito_> any ideas? the acg folder was chown'd to the user/group of the user that is trying to log in
[22:39] <EriC^^> rgenito_: was it recursiveness chown'd ?
[22:39] <EriC^^> rgenito_: does the user have permissions to the directories before acg?
[22:39] <PLMg> one thing I remember is, when I click on the top left part of the screen, a menu pops up and I can click something manager, don't remember the first part. Is that from Xfce gui?
[22:40] <rgenito_> EriC^^, yes
[22:40] <EriC^^> PLMg: you're being pretty vague
[22:40] <rgenito_> EriC^^, ah but...
[22:40] <rgenito_> user doesn't have permissions to the directory ABOVE acg
[22:40] <rgenito_> ...should everyone have permission on something like that? that doesn't sound safe
[22:41] <EriC^^> rgenito_: he can't read it if he doesn't have r x to the ones before
[22:41] <PLMg> sorry, was having issues getting eth0 up and I was focusing on that. I will google a bit and will come back with more info. Thx for the help guys. brb
[22:41] <CajunTechie> Hey everyone! Does anyone know where I can get the latest version of Mono on Ubuntu? It seems that the one that's in the repos is old?
[22:43] <EriC^^> rgenito_: i guess there's a better way to do what you're trying to do
[22:45] <rgenito_> EriC^^, probably
[22:45] <mazertm> Hi, after upgrading from 12.04LTS>14.04LTS i have constantly this fault "Transport endpoint is not connected" on my mhddfs mount. i need to remount it to fix it but it will go fucked again just in a few minuts. anyone kno what causes this ?
[22:45] <rgenito_> EriC^^, any idea what that is? :) We want a user to be able to SSH into this machine, but we want that user to use home directory on a separate hard drive... not on the drive that the local /home is on
[22:50] <mazertm> rgenito: set it in the /etc/passwd ?
[22:50] <EriC^^> rgenito_: i can think of one way, but i'm sure there are better
[22:50] <EriC^^> rgenito_: you can give him x permissions on the directories, he can get to acg
[22:51] <mazertm> regnito: someuser:x:1000:1000:someuser,,,:/mnt/somedir:/bin/bash
[22:51] <EriC^^> he can't list what's in the directories, but still if there's a file there with r he can read it
[22:52] <jimmy51v_> I have made a custom repository on my network.  I've added it with add-apt-repository and have installed packages from it.  Works great from CLI.  However, Muon doesn't show the packages when i search for them.
[22:53] <rgenito_> EriC^^, ahh maybe that's it
[22:53] <jimmy51v_> Does Muon only show official repos?  Or only show signed packages?
[22:53] <rgenito_> mazertm, it's "rg" then hit tab
[22:53] <rgenito_> EriC^^, http://pastie.org/private/la6f6olqrm6ni0fzriobw
[22:53] <rgenito_> so ya, it's probably what you mentioned, i'm gunna try that... but it's saying no permission for .bashrc -.-
[22:53] <rgenito_> EriC^^, ah yes, user does have +x permission. everyone has it
[22:54] <gebruiker> anyone here tried BFQ with ubuntu?
[22:54] <gebruiker> BFQ with CK ?
[22:54] <gebruiker> is it much of a difference?
[22:55] <EriC^^> rgenito_: ls -l /media/rgenito
[22:55] <k1l> gebruiker: http://askubuntu.com/questions/339951/why-arent-the-bfq-and-bfs-schedulers-included-in-the-official-ubuntu-kernel
[22:55] <EriC^^> rgenito_: it's far from the ideal solution though
[22:57] <gebruiker> k1l, yeah but that does not really answer my question
[22:57] <gebruiker> k1l, so you noticed better latency with the bfq and ck paches?
[22:58] <k1l> gebruiker: with that knowledge i doubt that there is much experience with that schedulers
[22:58] <mazertm> rgenito_: voila
[22:59] <rgenito_> :: reading ::
[22:59] <gebruiker> k1l, yeah saw the youtube video of the bfq sched, and it seemed quite impressive handling the workload
[22:59] <rgenito_> mazertm, huh? viola what?
[22:59] <rgenito_> oooh k1l is a bot? o.O
[22:59] <rgenito_> EriC^^,  i will ls -l /media/rgenito for you
[23:00] <rgenito_> EriC^^, it's under 'other permissions': http://pastie.org/private/mekedt1buowyrx9zwrka
[23:00] <k1l> gebruiker: well, a nice PR video doesnt make it automatically a good software :)
[23:01] <k1l> rgenito_: no i am not a bot :)
[23:01] <EriC^^> rgenito_: sorry, ls -ld /media/rgenito
[23:01] <gebruiker> k1l, have you seen it?
[23:01] <rgenito_> k1l, hehe sorry about that ;D
[23:01] <gebruiker> k1l, did not get the impression it was a marketing video
[23:02] <rgenito_> EriC^^, here ye go :D http://pastie.org/private/r5m9q9u8tlmjkjvq0oga
[23:02] <gebruiker> k1l, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeNbS0rzpoY
[23:03] <EriC^^> rgenito_: yeah, you need to add him
[23:03] <EriC^^> rgenito_: getfacl /media/rgenito will tell you the other permissions ( see the little + at the end? )
[23:04] <k1l> gebruiker: i dont have experience with that schedulers and i doubt you will find others in here. honestly i trust the ubuntu devs to be aware of that and to decide if that is relyable and brings an advantage
[23:05] <rgenito_> EriC^^, yes i see it
[23:05] <EriC^^> rgenito_: sudo setfacl -m u:jboncompte:x /media/rgenito
[23:05] <rgenito_> what do you mean by "you need to add him"?
[23:05] <EriC^^> rgenito_: that will add him
[23:05] <EriC^^> giving him x permissions
[23:11] <rgenito_> EriC^^, it works, THANK yoU!! :)
[23:11] <EriC^^> rgenito_: no problem :)
[23:14] <Brookes> hi
[23:14] <reisio> hi Brookes

[23:17] <tman21> Hey guys, i'm trying to install Catalyst Control center, during install i get the following error message

[23:17] <seder> hi everyone
[23:17] <seder> Does anyone here know how to use sed'
[23:18] <seder> ?
[23:18] <seder> I'm wondering how to remove everything between a dot and a comma
[23:18] <BusinessMan> Anyone wanna create a startup?
[23:18] <seder> like from this -329.3348,1536.3771,76.6117 to this -329.,1536.,76.
[23:18] <k1l> seder: i think the people in #bash know (or is there even a regexp channel?)
[23:18] <seder> thanks k1l
[23:19] <ashwin18> Hi guys, I need some help. I need someone who has ubuntu (even an empty VM installation of it) to do this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/445997/how-to-convert-androids-contacts2-db-to-vcf
[23:20] <reisio> seder: why remove that
[23:20] <k1l> ashwin18: what is your actual support issue?
[23:20] <ashwin18> I'm trying to convert the contacts2.db file from my android backup to a vcf file so I can import it in a new phone, but I dont have ubuntu or linux at the moment
[23:20] <reisio> ashwin18: you could see what 'strings' says about it
[23:20] <ashwin18> It's...not realted to ubuntu itself
[23:20] <ashwin18> Is that a user?
[23:21] <reisio> no, it's an executable
[23:21] <nick07> Iḿ trying to see a usb harddisk attached to my router in ubuntu (samba) but I cannot click te folder
[23:21] <ashwin18> For windows?
[23:21] <k1l> ashwin18: so isntall a ubuntu in a vm or find some tools for windows
[23:22] <ashwin18> I tried, I really did. It seems there's absolutely no way to do this in windows, just that one ubuntu method. And I cant install ubuntu atm, my limited mobile data wont allow me to download it
[23:23] <ashwin18> Just to be clear, I need someone who has ubuntu to use terminal to install the packages sqlite3 and libsqlite3-dev, then download a script called dbconverter.sh and use chmod to make it executable, and then use the script to convert my db file to vcf
[23:23] <k1l> ashwin18: honestly i would not send my contacts to a 3rd person. so get a internet connection, load ubuntu, put it into a vm and run that or find a method for windows (maybe ##windows or ##android can help on that)
[23:24] <ashwin18> I'll be obviously giving you the db file (around 2 megs)
[23:24] <EriC^^> ashwin18: can't you use cigwin
[23:24] <vAd0r> ok so i have tftp server setup now and i can copy from my ubuntu server to my cisco router. I can not copy from the router to the server
[23:24] <vAd0r> can someone tell me what i have done wrong
[23:24] <ashwin18> EriC, what's that?
[23:24] <EriC^^> ashwin18: something nasty
[23:24] <EriC^^> ashwin18: just use a free shell
[23:24] <ashwin18> lol
[23:24] <EriC^^> /join #xshellz
[23:25] <Aladiah-friend> Lubuntu 14.10 say it found errors with java icedt tea. how to solve Foram encontrados erros enquanto processava:
[23:25] <Aladiah-friend>  icedtea-netx:amd64
[23:25] <ashwin18> A free shell sounds perfect (if it is what I'm thinking it is)
[23:25] <Aladiah-friend>  icedtea-7-plugin:amd64
[23:25] <Aladiah-friend> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[23:26] <EriC^^> ashwin18: these let you create a user straight away, http://shell.cjb.net
[23:26] <ashwin18> quick question, do they allow file transfer?
[23:26] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: any PPAs running?
[23:26] <EriC^^> ashwin18: they don't allow alot of stuff though, try http://shell.xshellz.com if it doesn't work
[23:27] <ashwin18> I'll do that
[23:27] <EriC^^> ashwin18: you can use wget to download anything to it
[23:27] <tman21> Does anyone have experiance installing catalyst?
[23:27] <EriC^^> ( if you're on ubuntu usually you can just use scp )
[23:27] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: support only in this channel please
[23:27] <ashwin18> EriC how about sending a file TO it?
[23:27] <tman21> im getting errors during install
[23:27] <reisio> ashwin18: http://virtualboxes.org/images/
[23:27] <ashwin18> since I'll have to send them the contacts2.db file
[23:27] <Aladiah-friend> k1l what it is a PPA
[23:27] <Aladiah-friend> ?
[23:27] <k1l> tman21: how are you trying to install and what errors?
[23:27] <tman21> I downloaded it off the website
[23:28] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: a 3rd party repository.
[23:28] <EriC^^> ashwin18: upload the file to a free hosting service, use wget http://.... to download it to the shell
[23:28] <tman21> and tried installing thru terminal
[23:28] <instigator> Hello. How do you start the rsync daemon? I typed "sudo service rsync start" but got no message, then typed "sudo service rsync status" and got a message saying rsync is not running
[23:28] <k1l> tman21: dont do that. use the one ubuntu ships
[23:28] <Aladiah-friend> k1l i was trying to updat ñibreoffice to portugese when it gave me that error
[23:28] <tman21> where do i get that
[23:28] <ashwin18> EriC will do. I assume the host will have to support direct links (without any download pages etc)?
[23:28] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: please put the commands and output into a pastebin
[23:28] <k1l> !paste | Aladiah-friend
[23:28] <EriC^^> ashwin18: yup
[23:29] <ashwin18> EriC got any recommendations?
[23:29] <k1l> tman21: install tha fglrx package
[23:30] <Aladiah-friend> k1l how i can see that
[23:30] <Aladiah-friend> k1l:   here what i did until that erros appear , iam installing a new clean 14.10 installation   http://paste.ubuntu.com/9014786/
[23:30] <BusinessMan> How do I get list help from alis again
[23:30] <tman21> i get errors when i attempt that
[23:30] <tman21> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of fglrx:
[23:31] <tman21> fglrx : Depends: libc6-amd64 (>= 2.9) but it is not installable
[23:31] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: please put the following commands into the pastebin "lsb_release -a" , "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d"
[23:31] <k1l> tman21: ppas active?
[23:31] <k1l> !alis | BusinessMan
[23:31] <BusinessMan> Thx k1l
[23:32] <tman21> i'm sorry i'm new to ubuntu what are ppas
[23:33] <k1l> tman21: 3rd party package sources. not the official ubuntu ones
[23:33] <Aladiah-friend> k1l: here what you ask me  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9014856/
[23:34] <k1l> tman21: "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" lists the ppas
[23:34] <gcl5cp> what is the way to downgrade one package?
[23:34] <tman21> i have a few things listed
[23:34] <tman21> when i do that
[23:35] <k1l> tman21: can you pastebin that list?
[23:36] <tman21> http://pastebin.com/jqReRsxM
[23:36] <tman21> this is a fresh install
[23:36] <tman21> of 14.04
[23:36] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: ok. please try: "sudo apt-get install icedtea-netx"   lets see why it doesnt want to install that
[23:37] <OerHeks> k1l Aladiah-friend there is no icedtea-netx candidate for Utopic http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/icedtea-netx
[23:38] <usr13> gcl5cp: There is not an automated method to downgrade a package. You'd have to uninstall it and download a tarball of the version you want.
[23:38] <OerHeks> file a bugreport i guess
[23:38] <Aladiah-friend> k1l: here result http://paste.ubuntu.com/9014897/
[23:39] <usr13> gcl5cp: Or at least, that's the only way I know of to reliably do it.  You could search for a .deb in the version you want and install with dpkg
[23:39] <Aladiah-friend> OerHeks: iam newby i dont understand what this mean
[23:39] <k1l> OerHeks: are you sure? i think only the utopic repo is somehow deleted on packages.ubuntu.com
[23:39] <usr13> gcl5cp: finding a .deb is probably the first / eaisest option.
[23:40] <OerHeks> i have seen a lot of packages missing lately
[23:41] <Aladiah-friend> k1l: what a should do ? remove it ? how to remove it ?
[23:41] <gcl5cp> thank usr13. i get crash in chromium-browser/youtube,  since the last upgrade
[23:41] <gcl5cp> i don't like/use flash
[23:42] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: try a "sudo apt-get install -f"
[23:42] <Aladiah-friend> ok
[23:43] <k1l> tman21: ok please show the output of: "apt-cache policy libc6-amd64"
[23:45] <Aladiah-friend> k1l:   http://paste.ubuntu.com/9014979/
[23:45] <tman21> k1l: http://pastebin.com/M0pGBJSB
[23:45] <tman21> looks like im on 2.19
[23:45] <k1l> Aladiah-friend: hmm, sorry dont know so far
[23:45] <tman21> i can't figure out how to update it
[23:46] <larzo> gcl5cp, are you on Intel graphics?
[23:46] <k1l> tman21: hmm. please run a "sudo apt-get update"
[23:46] <k1l> tman21: ah sorry. you are on 14.04 right
[23:47] <tman21> correct
[23:47] <k1l> is this a 32bit system? tman21
[23:47] <tman21> this is a 64 bit
[23:48] <k1l> please show a "apt-cache policy fglrx"
[23:49] <Ranieri_> yo sexies
[23:49] <Ranieri_> how do I change my system path variable to include python3
 ubuntu noob </disclaimer>
[23:49] <babu_> what maya
[23:49] <babu_> MAYA
[23:49] <k1l> Ranieri_: you install the python3 package from the official ubuntu repo
[23:49] <babu_> where are youuu
[23:49] <babu_> wait
[23:49] <Ranieri_> k1l: I already have it
[23:50] <k1l> babu_: please keep this channel clear for support. thanks
[23:50] <tman21> k1l: http://pastebin.com/AWACWMmM
[23:50] <k1l> Ranieri_: from the ubuntu repos? than python3 is in the path (maybe after relogin)
[23:50] <k1l> tman21: you installed fglrx manually?
[23:51] <Ranieri_> k1l: typing the command "python" in the term gives me python 2.7.6
[23:51] <tman21> yes thru terminal
[23:51] <tman21> well
[23:51] <tman21> i downloaded thru the website first
[23:51] <hikenboot> hello getting gpg error on upgrade from 13 to 14 even after full apt-get update apt get upgrade apt-get dist upgrade
[23:51] <babu_> oh
[23:51] <tman21> and then i get caught up on fglrx : Depends: libc6-amd64 (>= 2.9) but it is not installable
[23:51] <babu_> ok
[23:52] <k1l> tman21: yes, the one from the website is installed. and i think that is now making the issue with the libc depency.
[23:53] <k1l> tman21: maybe you can apt-get purge fglrx and install the ubuntu one afterwards
[23:54] <tman21> ok
[23:54] <tman21> so should i do "sudo apt-get install fglrx"
[23:54] <tman21> after that
[23:55] <k1l> yes, after you purged that first
[23:55] <tman21> k1l: its not fully purging
[23:55] <tman21> it erros out because of the "unmet dependencies"
[23:56] <alesan> hello friends
[23:56] <k1l> tman21: apt-get install -f
[23:56] <alesan> I just installed a system for my mom, now I have a second hdd that I would like to use as /home
[23:57] <alesan> is it better to just reinstall and make it /home while installing???
[23:57] <alesan> maybe it's cleaner
[23:57] <richie2> anyone familiar with icmptx?
