[00:00] <k1l> flashram: there is no sense in running old repos if they dont get security fixes
[00:00] <theslow1> flashram, don't use feistyfawn
[00:00] <yvan_> flashram: you are using an operating system that is largely guaranteed to be vulnerable
[00:00] <flashram> its on win8 in qemu
[00:00] <flashram> the only way i get online with posix
[00:00] <flashram> wubi dont download firmware for wifi
[00:01] <flashram> so its qemu
[00:01] <k1l> come back if you run a ubuntu that is supported.
[00:01] <squinty> t   r   o   l   l
[00:01] <flashram> and i want to DISPLAY=ip:0.0;export DISPLAY;xterm &
[00:01] <flashram> but when i add that to bashrc i get an endless loop
[00:02] <flashram> so what if statement should i use to run it once ?
[00:02] <flashram> in bashrc
[00:02] <flashram> bah geeks
[00:03] <flashram> p7zip -d gmp-6.0.0a.tar.lz : unknown suffix --ignored
[00:03] <theslow1> brb
[00:04] <flashram> said its feisty didnt i ?
[00:16] <YamakasY> has anyone some decent list which I can use for my mirror sources ?
[00:16] <k1l> can you rephrase?
[00:17] <YamakasY> I get errors on my apt-get updates now that I miss stuff like universe and so on...
[00:17] <YamakasY> I'm trying to find some decent basic one
[00:18] <k1l> YamakasY: can you pastebin your "/etc/apt/sources.list" ?
[00:19] <YamakasY> k1l: just a sec
[00:21] <YamakasY> k1l: http://pastebin.com/iaW8b88U
[00:23] <k1l> YamakasY: oh. did you do that?
[00:24] <k1l> YamakasY: that list is a pure mess. what ubuntu are you actually on?
[00:24] <YamakasY> k1l: 14.04 I think this one
[00:24] <k1l> YamakasY: "lsb_release -d" gives you what?
[00:24] <YamakasY> yes this one is upgraded to 14.04
[00:25] <YamakasY> but I need 12.04 lts sources too
[00:26] <k1l> YamakasY: no. you dont need 12.04 sources
[00:26] <YamakasY> I need to, I deploy 12.04 too
[00:26] <YamakasY> it's my mirror!
[00:26] <k1l> you made a whole of mess there and you can be lucky that this system is still working
[00:26] <YamakasY> how so ? the update does that
[00:27] <YamakasY> upgrade actually
[00:27] <YamakasY> it's an internal mirror
[00:28] <bradscoolio> What's the link to download the cinnamon flavor of 14.04?
[00:28] <JavaJosh> It is impossible to install ubuntu on a toshiba satellite laptop, prove me wrong. i've spent over 6 hours trying
[00:28] <YamakasY> k1l: this is my mirrorlist
[00:28] <YamakasY> 01:24 < k1l> YamakasY: that list is a pure mess. what ubuntu are you actually on?
[00:28] <YamakasY> 01:24 < YamakasY> k1l: 14.04 I think this one
[00:28] <YamakasY> oops
[00:28] <YamakasY> 01:24 < k1l> YamakasY: "lsb_release -d" gives you what?
[00:28] <YamakasY> damn
[00:28] <unopaste> YamakasY you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[00:29] <bradscoolio> lsb_release -d
[00:29] <bradscoolio> woops
[00:29] <YamakasY> http://pastebin.com/v0U7sGgT
[00:30] <YamakasY> that is my mirrorlist
[00:30] <YamakasY> and that needs to be extended I think
[00:30] <bradscoolio> What's the link to download the cinnamon flavor of 14.04?
[00:30] <JavaJosh> can anyone explain this? "drm_kms_halper: panic occurred, switching back to text console" Everytime I try to install ubuntu, this happens
[00:31] <Gl4di4t0r> Can someone please tell me how to install the openvpn client?
[00:32] <k1l> YamakasY: iirc the system doesnt need to load all packages. its a seperated from the own updates stuff.
[00:32] <bazhang> Gl4di4t0r, what version of MINT
[00:33] <Gl4di4t0r> bazhang: 17
[00:33] <squinty> lol
[00:33] <bazhang> Gl4di4t0r, get help on the mint support chan
[00:33] <stephen_> hello
[00:33] <bazhang> !mintsupport | Gl4di4t0r
[00:36] <Gl4di4t0r> bazhang: no one knows anything in #linuxmint-help
[00:36] <bazhang> be patient then Gl4di4t0r this is ubuntu support only not MINT
[00:36] <YamakasY> k1l: as mirror ?
[00:37] <squinty> Gl4di4t0r:  that is not true (after spending years there I know there are very knowledgeable rascals there)
[00:37] <xptopy> hi
[00:37] <k1l> YamakasY: apt-mirror does not relate to your sources.list
[00:37] <Gl4di4t0r> ok I asked in here because I thought it was done that same way in both ubuntu and mint
[00:38] <ArchZombie> I have a question, where are the keyboard layouts for ubuntu 14.04 located? I know that there are some in the directory for XKB but it does not have all of the layouts in the selected input method option in that directory, I was wondering where the rest of them are located at.
[00:38] <YamakasY> k1l: no, but I need to extend my mirror.list, the other one is easy to fix
[00:39] <k1l> YamakasY: the sources.list is a mess. you are lucky that works at all.
[00:39] <squinty> Gl4di4t0r:  mint uses a combination of it's own and ubuntu repo's; not everything is the same.  consult the proper os channel for the best results.  :)
[00:39] <YamakasY> k1l: it's a 12.04 upgrade
[00:40] <YamakasY> k1l: but the mirror.list, let is concentrate on that one
[00:40] <k1l> YamakasY: that doesnt matter. you have gone crazy and copied stuff into there etc.
[00:41] <k1l> YamakasY: take a look at that list. its quite obvious what is wrong there
[00:41] <Bashing-om> ArchZombie: What is the problem ? Some problems with keyboard layouts can be resolved by enabling the backport repository and updating the system .
[00:41] <k1l> YamakasY: all lines starting with a # are ignored.
[00:41] <YamakasY> k1l: no, I just followed the exammples
[00:41] <YamakasY> k1l: which one ? are you still on sources.list ?
[00:41] <xpto> hello word
[00:41] <ArchZombie> I am trying to create a keyboard layout and wanted to start with one of the ones in the list as a base, but can't seem to find it.
[00:41] <k1l> YamakasY: on both lists.
[00:41] <YamakasY> k1l: 32 bits is commented on purpose
[00:42] <ArchZombie> I'm looking for the dvorak layout.
[00:42] <YamakasY> k1l: forget about the sources, it's a 14.04 upgrade because of some ldap stuff 12 doesn't have
[00:42] <YamakasY> can fix that easy
[00:42] <YamakasY> k1l: 32 bits on the mirror is commented out, so ? it might be handy later on
[00:43] <k1l> YamakasY: so what is the issue at all?
[00:44] <YamakasY> k1l: on my local servers I miss too many resources, default Ubuntu install... so my mirror misses default stuff
[00:44] <ArchZombie> Nevermind, I seem to have found it, it looks like to crams more than one layout into the same file.
[00:44] <deb64openvpnneed> can i get ubuntu help here?
[00:45] <ArchZombie> *it
[00:45] <bazhang> deb64openvpnneed, for debian openvpn?
[00:45] <deb64openvpnneed> yes.
[00:45] <bazhang> #debian for that
[00:46] <deb64openvpnneed> i use openvpn on ubuntu and mint. i tryed now on debian but something does not work.
[00:46] <deb64openvpnneed> maybe if someone know it, ubuntu is debian based
[00:46] <bazhang> so get support in the proper channel, which is #debian not here
[00:46] <Bashing-om> ArchZombie: If additiional help is needed: see -> man xkeyboard-config <-. seems there are numerious files related to the keyboard layout.
[00:47] <deb64openvpnneed> i went there, they said people here could help, since noone there said to understand
[00:47] <YamakasY> yes because debian guys are behind :P
[00:47] <bazhang> deb64openvpnneed, they never said that, keep it there
[00:47] <YamakasY> FAR! behind
[00:47] <deb64openvpnneed> they said: "go to ##openvpn" - invite only channel
[00:48] <k1l> deb64openvpnneed: then see if some other support ressources like mailinglists or forums can offer you better support. but this  channel is ubuntu only. thanks
[00:48] <deb64openvpnneed> they said: "noone here knows openvpn, if someone knows maybe can help you" - after "noone here, trry #ubuntu
[00:48] <bazhang> deb64openvpnneed, the channel is #openvpn , it's not invite only
[00:49] <fredric> Can someone help me with removing the copyblock on an external HDD?
[00:49] <xpto> k1l: hi
[00:49] <deb64openvpnneed> omg... == #openvpn Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services       == ##openvpn Cannot join channel (+i) - you must be invited
[00:49] <ArchZombie> Bashing-om, thank you
[00:50] <fredric> Can someone help me with removing the copyblock on an external HDD?
[00:51] <nomic> "copyblock"?
[00:52] <k1l> YamakasY: run apt-mirror to update the packages?
[00:53] <Bashing-om> ArchZombie: np . enjoy.
[00:54] <YamakasY> k1l: no, I miss i386 on some servers it seems
[00:54] <YamakasY> can be handy for some packages
[00:54] <YamakasY> soemtimes
[00:54] <k1l> YamakasY: ...
[00:54] <YamakasY> sometimes
[00:54] <YamakasY> taht seems to be my issue
[00:54] <YamakasY> adding those
[00:54] <k1l> YamakasY: what did i tell you ad the beginning? you commented the 32bits out
[00:54] <YamakasY> k1l: yes I know
[00:55] <YamakasY> mostly not needed
[00:55] <YamakasY> but I thought I was having more issues
[00:55] <YamakasY> but not it seems
[00:55] <YamakasY> kinda nice internal mirrir
[00:55] <YamakasY> mirror
[00:57] <YamakasY> k1l: cleaning up time large farm
[00:57] <YamakasY> some
[00:57] <YamakasY> some large
[00:57] <YamakasY> tight it up :)
[00:59] <YamakasY> ok downloading 55GB, not that much
[00:59] <YamakasY> sleep well!
[01:01] <basheba> Everybody must be getting updates at the same time
[01:07] <Fletchie> is the world round?
[01:07] <Fletchie> guys i want to know
[01:07] <nomic> i believe it's flat
[01:07] <nomic> looks flat
[01:08] <fredric> Can someone help me removing the copyblock on an external HDD?
[01:08] <nomic> i think fredric  wants to mount an esternal drfive
[01:09] <nomic> have you managed to mount it -- is it visible as a volume
[01:09] <fredric> It's visible yes.
[01:10] <ArchZombie> I have a question, I need to make a new layout on ubuntu for the keyboard, and I need to make some of the modifiers keys that would normally be letters, can Ubuntu do this?
[01:13] <nomic> if you can see the files, fredric - then you should be able to copy using sudo cp
[01:13] <nomic> "sudo cp"
[01:13] <nomic> can you cd to the mounted volume and list the files
[01:14] <fredric> Do you mean if it's visible in the terminal? I haven't seen it there.
[01:15] <kotel> hello all i first time try to configure ssh and i have some trouble..i use a vm ubuntu server where i've installed ssh and i try to reach from my host computer (ubuntu desktop)so the problem is when i try to connect e.g ssh 192.168.2.100 i use the root password as password and i get a deny...is there any default password or can i change the password from the config file?
[01:15] <nomic> can you see the files on the drive
[01:16] <fredric> In the terminal?
[01:16] <fredric> How do I see the drive in the terminal?
[01:16] <nomic> you obviously hafen't mount4ed the drive yet
[01:16] <nomic> im not sure it automounts with ubuntu .. is it a usb drive
[01:17] <waressearcher2> if I want to run programm at startup should I put it in .xsession ? the program is "xbindkey" and I want it to read my $HOME/.xbindkeysrc file so it should run with my user priveleges, not root
[01:17] <somsip> kotel: usually ssh as root is not enabled by default. Check in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[01:17] <fredric> It's visible in the folders file, so I think it's mounted.  It's an external HDD
[01:18] <fredric> USB
[01:18] <somsip> kotel: and, there is no root password by default so if you've not added one, it isn't going to work like that. Login as a user and use sudo rather than using root
[01:19] <xkubic19> ahoj
[01:19] <xkubic19> ahoj
[01:19] <xkubic19> cau
[01:20] <kotel> i don't acctually want to login as root but as normal user...the point is that i don't know what password to use to connect to ssh..i've not changed anything in config file yet..
[01:21] <somsip> kotel: login with the password for that user. Eg: ssh myuser@192.168.1.10 and then enter myuser's password on the remote machine
[01:21] <nomic> if its visible in the folders file, then it is mounted under "media" in your terminal, frederic
[01:21] <nomic> not sure how to change permissions using the gui
[01:21] <nomic> you are 1/2 way there fredric
[01:21] <nomic> keep asking people here
[01:22] <nomic> say you can see the files in the desktop, and where and ask why you are unable to copy them
[01:22] <xkubic19> [A
[01:22] <kotel> perfect..it connects....
[01:22] <kotel> thank you very much
[01:22] <somsip> kotel: np
[01:23] <xkubic19> srry
[01:23] <fredric> Ok. Does anyone know how to change permissions on a mounted external HDD drive, using the terminal?
[01:23] <somsip> xkubic19: so do you have a support question?
[01:23] <JavaJosh> no matter what I do, I cannot install ubuntu on a toshiba satellite. I've wasted over 8 hours of my day trying :(
[01:23] <somsip> fredric: what are the current permissions? Maybe better to fix how it's getting mounted...
[01:26] <daftykins> JavaJosh: how'd the memtest pan out?
[01:26] <JavaJosh> daftykins: memtest ran fine :(
[01:27] <JavaJosh> daftykins: trying ubuntu's current LTS, still, same problems
[01:27] <daftykins> JavaJosh: as in completed one pass?
[01:27] <daftykins> er what were you trying before?
[01:27] <JavaJosh> daftykins: yes, with 0 issues
[01:27] <JavaJosh> daftykins: 14.10
[01:27] <daftykins> ah, yeah i'd stick to LTS all the time really
[01:27] <JavaJosh> daftykins: same problems though
[01:27] <daftykins> so you said last you got to desktop
[01:27] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i think that ubuntu just is not compatible with a toshiba satellite laptop
[01:28] <daftykins> what else has happened since?
[01:28] <JavaJosh> daftykins: never got to desktop
[01:28] <JavaJosh> daftykins: can't get to installing options, it's always something
[01:28] <daftykins> hmm i have great doubts about that statement
[01:28] <JavaJosh> daftykins: well brother, i wish you'd prove me wrong! lol
[01:28] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i'm not sure what else to try
[01:28] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i've had this BIOS configured every which way
[01:29] <daftykins> does it have any updates available?
[01:29] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i'll check, stand by
[01:31] <daftykins> JavaJosh: what's the spec of this thing?
[01:33] <JavaJosh> daftykins: standy by
[01:33] <david_> is it an AMD cpu?  My AMD HP was terrible with Ubuntu.
[01:34] <JavaJosh> daftykins: http://www.cnet.com/products/toshiba-satellite-c855d-s5340-15-6-e1-1200-windows-8-4-gb-ram-320-gb-hdd/specs/
[01:34] <daftykins> JavaJosh: you do at least get the boot menu of the drive reliably, yes?
[01:35] <daftykins> i.e. language select and then boot choices
[01:35] <JavaJosh> daftykins: yes
[01:35] <daftykins> ok yeah an AMD-E
[01:35] <daftykins> JavaJosh: are you using nomodeset? i would
[01:35] <JavaJosh> daftykins: tried, helped me get farther
[01:35] <JavaJosh> daftykins: still, can't install :(
[01:35] <daftykins> what happens with nomodeset on? any BIOS updates?
[01:36] <acovrig> I have a virtualbox share (this is a linux VM on a mac) with this in my /etc/fstab on the linux: right /mnt/right vboxsf defaults,nobootwait 0 0 a ls -lah of /mnt/right/new shows root:root rwxr-xr-x, I need user 112:123 to be able to write to this folder, how do I do that?
[01:36] <JavaJosh> with nomodeset i was getting to, well i can't remember the error now. no matter what i change i run into errors
[01:36] <daftykins> acovrig: #vbox
[01:37] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i might just give up man, it's not my laptop, this is the first time i've ever ran into something like this
[01:37] <acovrig> daftykins, is it a vbox issue? it seems like a linux permissions issue...
[01:38] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i thought this challenge was something i could learn from, but at what cost? over 8 hours of my personal time with error after error
[01:38] <JavaJosh> :(
[01:38] <JavaJosh> the latest error is that damn "drm_kms_halper: panic occurred, switching back to text console"
[01:38] <daftykins> JavaJosh: er, so no BIOS talk then?
[01:39] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i'll see if there is an update, hang on
[01:39] <JavaJosh> daftykins: there is an update, ,i'll try it
[01:39] <JavaJosh> daftykins: uh, it's an exe file
[01:40] <JavaJosh> daftykins: wtf do i do with this? this is linux lol
[01:40] <daftykins> is it a windows binary or a DOS binary?
[01:40] <JavaJosh> daftykins: i'm not sure, probably DOS, i never thought of that, i always associated exe with win
[01:40] <daftykins> acovrig: oh i didn't read the whole thing, sorry. "sudo chown -R user:group /mnt/right/" and "sudo chmod -R g+w /mnt/right/"
[01:41] <daftykins> JavaJosh: can you link me? also, do you have windows (any version) boot media?
[01:41] <JavaJosh> daftykins: http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=EU
[01:42] <JavaJosh> daftykins: no windows boot media, i might... but i'm drunk and i think my win7 disk is buried somewhere
[01:44] <thepheinex> do you get into the bios the same way with ubuntu as with windows?
[01:45] <daftykins> thepheinex: the BIOS is completely separate to the OS
[01:45] <daftykins> JavaJosh: 6.50 yeah?
[01:45] <thepheinex> ok thats what i though
[01:45] <daftykins> i couldn't work out what to put into short model
[01:46] <JavaJosh> daftykins: its on 6.00 i think
[01:46] <JavaJosh> the bios
[01:46] <k2gremlin> thepheinex, Yea whatever your normal bios key is... (del, F2... ETC) will get into the bios the same
[01:46] <daftykins> JavaJosh: PSC...?
[01:47] <daftykins> i put notebook -> satellite -> C series -> C855D -> but don't know what for the last one
[01:47] <we6jbo__> Hi
[01:47] <thepheinex> i cant seem to get in the bios any
[01:47] <we6jbo__> I have a software question
[01:47] <JavaJosh> daftykins: PSCBQU-001005
[01:48] <JavaJosh> which isn't an option O_O
[01:48] <daftykins> JavaJosh: indeed, err did i get the numbers wrong somewhere 0o
[01:48] <we6jbo__> I want to distribute my program to Ubuntu users that don't know a lot about linux but I want to put my program on a PPA and then distribute an installer on a CD. Is there anyway to do that?
[01:49] <thepheinex> if the battary was put in the wrong way would that stop you from getting into the bios?
[01:50] <daftykins> thepheinex: why are you asking such random questions 0o
[01:50] <daftykins> thepheinex: they'd be more appropriate to ##hardware
[01:51] <JavaJosh> daftykins: your help is awesome, but dinner is ready. i should be back later
[01:51] <thepheinex> will im trying to get ubuntu to boot but
[01:51] <thepheinex> cant get there
[01:51] <daftykins> JavaJosh: ok, it's bed time my time though :( i'd love to keep trying!
[01:51] <JavaJosh> daftykins: perhaps, another day
[01:52] <JavaJosh> daftykins: goodnight linux brethren
[01:52] <daftykins> thepheinex: put the battery in the right way, + side facing up, disconnect the mains power and apply the CMOS reset jumper to wipe the settings... move it back, plug back in and fire up
[01:53] <thepheinex> lolol tryed tghat
[01:53] <daftykins> thepheinex: is it POST'ing at all?
[01:54] <thepheinex> i have put a new hard drive in with the only thing on it is ubuntu
[01:54] <thepheinex> no
[01:54] <thepheinex> it will from the live dis but thats all
[01:54] <daftykins> thepheinex: sorry, it's not an ubuntu issue until you can actually get it to POST. :)
[01:55] <daftykins> reduce it to the minimum hardware necessary to POST and see what's going on
[01:55] <daftykins> i love hardware and challenges but it's off topic here sadly.
[01:55] <thepheinex> oh ok
[02:01] <JackelopeKing> Hello. Am i on the correct channel to ask for help with a problem involving ubuntu 14.10 specially unity failing to load after a kernel update today?
[02:01] <daftykins> yes
[02:01] <JackelopeKing> Thank you.
[02:02] <JackelopeKing> After i let update manager update linux kerne
[02:02] <JackelopeKing> Kernel* 3.16 unity fails to load
[02:03] <daftykins> JackelopeKing: tried an older kernel?
[02:03] <JackelopeKing> Tried removing the most recent kernel without luck... Now loading to a blank desktop without unity and ctrl+alt+t doesn't bring up terminal
[02:03] <daftykins> nasty, does a guest session work?
[02:04] <JackelopeKing> Guest session hangs in the same empty desktop
[02:04] <daftykins> that's not a good sign, have you run a dist-upgrade to check everything's happy?
[02:04] <JackelopeKing> Rolled back to 3.16.0-23 with no luck
[02:04] <JackelopeKing> Let me try that daftykins
[02:05] <JackelopeKing> What is command for that? I don't work in command line often
[02:05] <daftykins> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[02:06] <JackelopeKing> Running now
[02:07] <JackelopeKing> Ran, no error, restarting
[02:07] <daftykins> didn't offer to install anything? well that's both good and bad
[02:07] <JackelopeKing> Updated shotwell
[02:07] <uf> apt-get install gnome-shell
[02:07] <uf> to get gnome three
[02:08] <daftykins> that is not an answer, uf
[02:08] <uf> best decision of my Ubuntu life
[02:08] <daftykins> oh that's unrelated, ok.
[02:08] <JackelopeKing> currently on 3.16.0-23
[02:09] <acovrig> daftykins, chown does nothing here... odly...
[02:09] <daftykins> acovrig: depends how you're running it
[02:09] <acovrig> daftykins, chown -R user:group /mnt/right/new; ls -lah /mnt/right/new shows root:root for everything...
[02:10] <somsip> acovrig: use sudo if they are currently root:root
[02:10] <daftykins> you did replace the user and group yes?
[02:10] <acovrig> daftykins, yes
[02:10] <daftykins> ^ and that
[02:10] <acovrig> somsip, I can't really sudo a daemon that is configured to not run as root as a security thing
[02:10] <JackelopeKing> For what it is worth the desktop shows no dash no unity sidebar but displays popup for myweatherapp with solid black around it as if a graphics driver is bout in use
[02:11] <acovrig> JackelopeKing, you using unity?
[02:11] <daftykins> acovrig: you're dealing with the file system which does need root to be changed
[02:11] <uf> Is bash run as root
[02:11] <uf> ?
[02:11] <acovrig> daftykins, yes, I did sudo chown
[02:11] <daftykins> JackelopeKing: can you install pastebinit and run "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" ?
[02:12] <JackelopeKing> Acovrig: I normally use unity
[02:12] <somsip> acovrig: that chown needs sudo to work. How you do that within what you're trying to achieve is difficult to know without knowing what you're doing. If it's a problem with accessing an external drive being mounted, then setup your mount correctly rather than trying to chown after the event
[02:12] <acovrig> daftykins, and if I used the -v flag it says it changed the permissions...
[02:12] <uf> Ah, apparently not
[02:13] <acovrig> JackelopeKing, yea, that happened to me, unity simply died, I purged everything graphical and re-installed with no success, so I have switched to KDE for the moment...
[02:13] <daftykins> acovrig: this share isn't on an NTFS drive is it?
[02:14] <acovrig> daftykins, no, it's an ext3 or ext4 as a virtualbox share so I can use samba because the version of mac the host is running can't do samba properly, so I'm using an ubuntu vm to run samba and a few other things
[02:14] <JackelopeKing> acovrig: I'm hoping to avoid that but may have to
[02:15] <acovrig> daftykins, I may eventually (if I get the time) install ubuntu directly on the Xserve
[02:15] <daftykins> acovrig: wow that's horrible :D
[02:16] <acovrig> daftykins, yea, the hardware is quite sad, it can't run windows 8 and windows server 2012 vms at the same time, CPU meter peaks and it freezes solid...
[02:17] <daftykins> acovrig: you know about forcing OS X to SMB1 yeah? didn't solve issues i take it?
[02:20] <daftykins> JackelopeKing: sooo... pastebin? :)
[02:20] <acovrig> daftykins, yea, and if memory serves, when I was researching it, the version before and after what I'm running works, but I can't upgrade it because the next version is "unsupported"...
[02:21] <daftykins> hrmm
[02:21] <acovrig> daftykins, it isn't important at all for this to be running mac, it just is because it's a hand-me-down and it can...
[02:21] <daftykins> what's it on? 10.?
[02:22] <acovrig> daftykins, 10.7.5
[02:22] <daftykins> ah ok
[02:23] <acovrig> daftykins, I think the next version is "unsupported" because of some EFI thing, I tried some hackintosh stuff, but didn't get anywhere; I may get around to installing ubuntu on it sometime this week
[02:25] <alphaikaros> hello
[02:25] <acovrig> daftykins, I'm guessing I can put an ubuntu install 'disk' on a USB flashdrive, boot from it and install Ubuntu like I would on any other system (hopefully)
[02:25] <k2gremlin> Hey daftykins, remember when I was trying to get my SSH working with an IP on the server of .22?
[02:27] <acovrig> daftykins, on a side note, is it possible for me to mkdir /mnt/new and use some random mount command to 'mount' a root:root directory as user:group, could I?
[02:27] <daftykins> k2gremlin: don't think i was there for that one
[02:28] <daftykins> acovrig: you don't mount an existing directory
[02:29] <daftykins> mounting is for file systems on block devices
[02:29] <acovrig> yea, I was wondering if I could mount a dir with different permissions, but doubted it
[02:30] <jr_> Is there viagra for women?
[02:30] <daftykins> acovrig: i'm about to call it a night i'm afraid as otherwise i'd ask more
[02:30] <jr_> Oh. wrong room
[02:30] <jr_> sorry
[02:31] <acovrig> lol, OK; me too
[02:44] <nmatrix9> Hello all Iam having some issues getting twin with Ubuntu Kylin
[02:44] <nmatrix9> *Twin view.
[02:44] <daftykins> "kylin" ?
[02:45] <nmatrix9> I have two monitors exactly the same brand I am using a Geforce 550 GTX ti with dual dvi ports but for one reason or another my xserver has my second monitor stuck at a resolution of 800x600
[02:45] <somsip> daftykins: Chinese Ubuntu flavour
[02:46] <daftykins> ah, not supported in here then
[02:46] <rww> it's an official flavor, so technically it is :\
[02:46] <nmatrix9> daftykins, sorry forget Kylin I mean Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.  I copied and pasted : /
[02:46] <somsip> nmatrix9: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UtopicUnicorn/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuKylin?action=show&redirect=UtopicUnicorn%2FReleaseNotes%2FKylin#Support
[02:46] <daftykins> official 0o
[02:47] <rww> ja, http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/flavours
[02:47] <somsip> nmatrix9: longer paste than expected. Maybe some links to kylin specific issues on here that might help
[02:47] <rww> top list is what's on-topic in #ubuntu
[02:47] <somsip> !flavors | rww (does it need updating?)
[02:48] <nmatrix9> rww: it was a mispaste Iam using Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 LTS English!
[02:48] <rww> somsip: it's technically correct as it is, but suggestions welcome (/msg ubottu !no, foo is <reply> bar)
[02:48] <nmatrix9> I am using the English version
[02:48] <somsip> rww: fair enough
[02:49] <nmatrix9> I have two monitors exactly the same brand I am using a Geforce 550 GTX ti with dual dvi ports but for one reason or another my xserver has my second monitor stuck at a resolution of 800x600
[02:49] <daftykins> nmatrix9: nouveau driver or nvidia proprietary?
[02:49] <nmatrix9> For Ubuntu Server 14.04Trusty Tahr
[02:50] <nmatrix9> daftykins, nvidia proprietary I believe
[02:51] <daftykins> ah well, i have to go
[02:51] <nmatrix9> daftykins, The weird thing is that I just got off of 12.04 and it seems strange I should struggle with this issue
[02:51] <nmatrix9> It was easier to configure in 12.04
[02:51] <daftykins> you could've kept running 12.04 for another 2 years :)
[02:51] <nmatrix9> daftykins, true
[02:57] <nmatrix9> Anyone have a extended desktop with Ubuntu, if so can I take a look at your xorg.conf file for reference?
[03:02] <kermit> in upgrading from 13 to 14, i get "Could not find /boot/grub/menu.lst file. Would you like /boot/grub/menu.lst generated for you? (y/N) " a lot.. should i be worried?
[03:02] <daftykins> not if you have backups!
[03:02] <kojak_> Yesterday, plugged in my TV on my 14.04LTS box with an HDMI Cable. It worked. Today Ubuntu is not recognizing the TV Display (Settins -> Displays). What can I do?
[03:07] <kojak_> TV says no signall..
[03:12] <hzumbru1> I never even knew this existed
[03:44] <RustyShackleford> I installed f.lux on ubuntu 14.04
[03:44] <RustyShackleford> but it doesn't work. I see it's running in the taskbar
[03:44] <RustyShackleford> but the screen does not change color
[04:11] <xangua> So I just reinstalled Ubuntu and my swap partition doesn't seem to be recognized, this is my /etc/fstab http://pastebin.com/mtgcj0uS and fdisk -l  output http://pastebin.com/dg0E43GW , any suggestion in what tre trouble might be? thanks
[04:12] <xangua> I just tried to format it with gparted and I can use it, but it doesn't mount when I restart
[04:13] <somsip> xangua: what's with the /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 line in fstab?
[04:14] <xangua> somsip:  encrypted home
[04:15] <xangua> mmm wait, why is swap mentioned there?
[04:15] <somsip> xangua: and you've reformatted it using whatever you need to reformat it to encrypt it and use it with your newly installed (and presumably encrypted) home?
[04:16] <xangua> I alread had my home encrypted, I just reinstalled ubuntu 14.10
[04:16] <somsip> xangua: I don't knwo how home encryption works, so it might be fine, or it might the root of your problems

[04:39] <travesty> heylo; I've installed ubuntu 14.04, and all necessary plugins and am still unable to load xgenstudios.com/game.php?keyword=stickarena. I can verify that flash and java are both present and working. Can anyone tell me where I can find a log and/or diagonse this issue asap please? used to work in previous version of ubuntu I had installed; installed ubuntu studio 14.04, then installed ubuntu 14.04, ubuntu desktop & Unity greeter.
[04:40] <travesty> Good Song Caasey.

[04:42] <travesty> *Bump-Bump-a_rump-a_Bump*
[04:42] <cfhowlett> travesty, stop
[04:42] <travesty> I'm serious with my question;
[04:42] <travesty> why does no one understand I'm trying to get this resolved
[04:42] <cfhowlett> travesty, bump is not the way to get your question answered
[04:43] <travesty> ***Was referring to the link Caasey Gave in the room, tyvm****
[04:43] <reisio> travesty: tried with Chrome?
[04:43] <travesty> Chrome isn't installed, I tried with Browser, and it didn't work either.
[04:44] <reisio> travesty: tried with Chrome?
[04:44] <travesty> I have not.
[04:44] <travesty> ^^
[04:45] <Seven_Six_Two> travesty, sun java or default openjre?
[04:45] <reisio> travesty: how about now?
[04:45] <travesty> sun java 762.
[04:45] <travesty> working reisio

[04:45] <reisio> working?
[04:46] <reisio> travesty: http://www.xgenstudios.com/stickarena/dimensions.swf
[04:46] <reisio> the site is just garbage
[04:47] <travesty> omg, thank you so much reisio.
[04:47] <Seven_Six_Two> doesn't work for me either. silly site
[04:48] <somsip> travesty: game is working fine here with FF and Chrome, using flashplugin-installer
[04:48] <Seven_Six_Two> oh I suppose I haven't installed flash...
[04:48] <travesty> flashplugin-installer is installed, but the swf ext does...
[04:48] <reisio> it has really broken JS
[04:48] <travesty> I'm curious why it wouldn't work on the site and will on the .ext site... ??
[04:49] <reisio> it has really broken JS
[04:53] <shiftless> can someone please tell me where to find all the ubuntu trusty packages, on an ftp site somewhere where I can just wget it all?
[04:53] <cfhowlett> shiftless, use .torrents and get the DVD
[04:53] <travesty> erm... ubuntu repo?
[04:53] <travesty> archives?
[04:53] <shiftless> I don't want a DVD. I want a shitload of packages in one directory on my hard drive.
[04:54] <shiftless> Downloaded directly from the server. The question is, WHAT server?
[04:54] <shiftless> All I can find is some piece of crap web interface junk
[04:54] <shiftless> http://packages.ubuntu.com
[04:55] <shiftless> anyone?
[04:56] <slyrus> Seven_Six_Two: thanks for the tip on the cable the other night. You were right!
[04:56] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, where are you?
[04:56] <Seven_Six_Two> slyrus, awesome.
[04:56] <shiftless> southeast US
[04:56] <slyrus> Seven_Six_Two: I have to admit, I was highly skeptical :)
[04:57] <Seven_Six_Two> slyrus, was it the wrong cable, or interference?
[04:57] <slyrus> hmm... good question. I just swapped out the cable and all was right with the world.
[04:58] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, ftp://ftp.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/
[04:58] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, is that southeast enough for you?
[04:59] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, oh sorry, that might be just images
[04:59] <shiftless> thanks for that. I finally found the archive server
[04:59] <shiftless> this should do
[05:00] <zykotick9> shiftless: fyi, downloaded packages are stored in /var/cache/apt/archives/ just sayin'
[05:00] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, if I might, why do you want lots of packages?
[05:01] <shiftless> I'm downloading files for a different computer on a different distro that has no internet access. and to be honest I'm sick and fucking tired of the entire "why save stuff? just download it the microsecond need it" mentality which has infected computing
[05:01] <shiftless> I like having an archive hard drive that I can go straight to and grab whatever I need , that minute, even if there is no net
[05:01] <shiftless> thanks for your help Seven
[05:02] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, aah I see. I was going to suggest apt-cacher, but that's only good for the same distro's packages
[05:02] <shiftless> its Linux Mint. why they dont set up their own repository instead of parasiting off yours I have no clue
[05:03] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, I am using mint right now. It's because it's easier to have packages in one place when they're exactly the same, instead of duplicating the effort.
[05:05] <shiftless> Sure it is. Up until one day Ubuntu decides it's had enough of the distro it released a year ago, and decides to just delete the entire package repository one day, thus rendering one of my laptops completely useless since I can't update or install any packages
[05:05] <shiftless> The solution from the Mint guys? "just wipe and reinstall" my response: "fuck you"
[05:06] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, apt-cacher will work, since they're the same repo. I just mean it won't work for different package versions, etc. They don't delete the whole repo when support ends. It just changes location.
[05:07] <shiftless> That's good, so maybe I can just change the APT config and make it usable again. Still pisses me off though, because it's like nobody thinks beyond today when they are planning and designing this stuff. The mentality is, the internet and the contents will always be available, so there is no need to plan otherwise
[05:08] <xangua> got my swap back :)
[05:08] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, it sounds like you need to be on LTS.
[05:08] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, and update but don't upgrade until next LTS
[05:08] <shiftless> No, I don't need to be on long term support. What I need is a distro that isn't built by morons. At this point no such thing exists. My distro was working fine one minute, then the next it's broken, and I'm told the solution is to reformat? to hell with that
[05:09] <xangua> that attitude won't help
[05:09] <shiftless> Your attitude definitely won't help
[05:11] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ [breezy .. oneiric]  main restricted universe multiverse
[05:11] <shiftless> Thanks seven, I'll update that config file
[05:11] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, change your /etc/sources.list to match that for all lines
[05:12] <sacarlson1> shiftless: there is no real reason you can't keep an old ubuntu system running forever if it has all you need already in it.  but you have to be responsible enuf to back it up to allow recovery in failures
[05:12] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, you can also mirror the entire repository, but it's very large.
[05:12] <shiftless> I'm trying to find some kind of tool like wget which will download every file from 2014 only. wget doesn't do it
[05:12] <sacarlson1> shiftless: don't expect someone else to backup your computer for you
[05:13] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, why from 2014 only?
[05:14] <sacarlson1> shiftless: there are tools to setup your own apt mirror, is that what you want?
[05:15] <shiftless> sacarlson, I don't expect anyone to back up my computer for me. I don't need anyone to backup my computer for me. What I expect is for people to not release a piece of shit that is going to fuck up my life when it stops working like it's supposed to, for no obvious reason, and with no support given whatsoever. In fact I simply got booted from the Linux Mint channel when I told them that the "solution" they were telling me (reformat and reinstall) was i
[05:15] <shiftless> diotic
[05:16] <sacarlson1> shiftless: it only takes 50gb for the entire mirror set to have it local http://www.unixmen.com/setup-local-repository-ubuntu-14-0413-1013-04-server/
[05:16] <shiftless> Seven: because it seems all the Ubuntu packages from different versions all inhabit the same pool, so I don't want to mirror all the other versions too
[05:16] <shiftless> just trusty
[05:18] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, debmirror will let you do that
[05:19] <shiftless> Yeah I saw that apt-mirror crap but I don't want to devote my entire life to mirroring some packages. Shouldn't have to be editing config files and search, just type a command and hit go. I just found that curl will do the job, with the -z option
[05:20] <Seven_Six_Two> apt-mirror is not debmirror
[05:21] <shiftless> nice
[05:21] <shiftless> Thanks for the tip...looks like a good tool
[05:22] <Seven_Six_Two> it's a bit of a setup, but you only do it once.
[05:22] <sacarlson1> shiftless: you really only had to modify ONE line in ONE file to make it work ha ha.  the other file was if you wanted to keep it updated at some regular basis that I assume you don't
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> good morning to all
[05:24] <shiftless> sacarlson1, I just hate that everything these days is buried behind some unique interface that requires unique tools to use. In an ideal world everything would be on an ftp (or similar) server divided out into subdirectories so you could just grab what you need, no matter what OS or computer you happen to be on that moment
[05:26] <sacarlson1> shiftless: I like the way it is.  I don't even know were the ftp site is I just hit a box and it installs everything needed.  don't have to think about ftp
[05:26] <sacarlson1> shiftless: but you are always free to write another one that's better oh and it has to b FREE
[05:29] <juuil> Hey niggas
[05:30] <caasey> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kakUJARSOc
[05:30] <cfhowlett> juuil, stop immediately
[05:30] <cfhowlett> !guidelines | juuil
[05:30] <juuil> Ok
[05:30] <shiftless> srcarlson1: I got a better idea....I'm going to design a new programming language, OS, and computer system to run it on, that will make all of this current junk obsolete overnight. I'm really dissatisfied with the state of computing as a whole right now. We are in a dark ages.
[05:32] <igoryonya> hello, I have some sshfs file systems, configured in fstab, they don't always connect automatically after the system boots up and I have to do mount -a. Is there a way to fix that behaviour and make sure that they get connected every time.
[05:34] <Seven_Six_Two> shiftless, it's more like the wild west. There's actual progress (Read: change) and learning. Are you studying computer engineering?
[05:34] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: seems I've seen this before since fstab actions run before network is stable.  so you would have to add a script change in ipup actions
[05:35] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: I can provide you more details of what to change if you like
[05:37] <shiftless> What we are looking at right now is a leaning tower of Babel, composed of bullshit, which is now threatening to collapse onto people's homes and neighborhoods. That's why we have to bulldoze it and start it from scratch. Every one in a while you need a revolution
[05:38] <albert> /q
[05:38] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: a cluge method would be just add a script to cron with @reboot , that also adds some long sleep 120 ; delay to hopefuly sure the net is up that would run sudo mount -a
[05:38] <shiftless> I'm 31 years old. I remember as a kid being told that computers would make our lives easier. Somehow it didn't quite work out that way
[05:39] <shiftless> Still waiting on that flying car too
[05:44] <igoryonya> sacarlson1, the first thing, I've thought about, was to add the script to cron that once a minute checks, if the devices were mounted, if not, check if network is connected, if it is, call mount -a. But I thought, that it's a crude method of a person that doesn't know how to do it better (I am talking about me) and would like to do it the right way. Do you mean, I need to do something in '/etc/network/if-up.d/'?
[05:46] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: yes that sounds like the place to try in if-up.d
[05:46] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: so any time the net went down and back up it would remount I guess if needed
[05:48] <EriC^^> igoryonya: you could use this to check if it's mounted if ( df | grep -qs <label of disk> ); then ..
[05:48] <igoryonya> sacarlson1, What I am wondering, since I've never put scripts there before, are they any special, or just a regular bash files, where I can just put mount -a inside?
[05:49] <EriC^^> or mount point instead of label of disk would be better
[05:50] <EriC^^> igoryonya: i think you have to run the script with root privileges
[05:50] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: I'm not sure I would have reserch to be sure but I think any bash script will work.  anything in that dir will be run when connected that's all you really have to know
[05:51] <EriC^^> you're all set i guess
[05:56] <mindless_chaos> I have an interesting thing happening. The problem I am having is oppsite the usually issue
[05:56] <mindless_chaos> When I boot ubuntu, i get a blank screen
[05:57] <mindless_chaos> but after I close the lid, and let it sleep, upon waking up I have video
[05:57] <mindless_chaos> Usually its the other way around, have video until you go into sleep...
[05:57] <mindless_chaos> Any one have any idea's
[05:57] <Schnabeltierchen> i would like to use ubuntu, but can´t get it working with my 2 different graficcards, which use a screen each...
[05:57] <igoryonya> EriC^^ , for some reason, mounted sshfs disks, very rarely , but sometimes, do not show up in df commad, but show up in mount -l, but sometimes don't show in either, while I see that the files were actually mounted, since they show up in the mount dir. That's strange, but maybe, is there a way to detect the mounted network devices through some /proc/ file?
[05:58] <reisio> Schnabeltierchen: nvidia?
[05:58] <mindless_chaos> radeon
[05:58] <Schnabeltierchen> 560 gtx ti :P
[05:58] <reisio> Schnabeltierchen: yes?
[05:58] <igoryonya> sacarlson1, ok, I will try to write something in if-up.d folder, thanks.
[05:58] <mindless_chaos> i dunno, its baffling
[05:58] <Schnabeltierchen> yes :P nvido geforce 560 gtx ti :P
[05:58] <reisio> 'yes' works
[05:59] <Schnabeltierchen> and a intel hd :P
[05:59] <Seven_Six_Two> Schnabeltierchen, is your nick slang for chickens or something?
[05:59] <reisio> Schnabeltierchen: you try nvidia's driver? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[05:59] <mindless_chaos> i don't have nvidia
[05:59] <mindless_chaos> i have ati radeon
[06:00] <mindless_chaos> Has some other stuff going on too, but I'll just hash that out as I go.
[06:00] <Schnabeltierchen> @reisio: Yes i tried the Binarydrivers... @Seven_Six_Two: Please forgive me my sluggish typing, i was eating and my fingers were greasy...
[06:00] <reisio> mindless_chaos: I want to say that's a common GNOME 3 issue
[06:00] <reisio> mindless_chaos: but it could also be just your graphics driver + power management
[06:01] <sacarlson1> igoryonya: cool tell me how it goes as I've seen others with the same problem that would like to know
[06:01] <reisio> Schnabeltierchen: how didn't they work?
[06:01] <mindless_chaos> yeah, I guess I am just gonna have to trial and error
[06:03] <Schnabeltierchen> reisio: After installing, he screwed up the desktop dimensions of both desktops, one was streched over 1,5x screens, the other half was the second desktop, tiled and puzzled
[06:03] <Schnabeltierchen> reisio: After a reboot, he simply refused to work with the intel grafics
[06:04] <Seven_Six_Two> Schnabeltierchen, if you use 2 different cards, I think you might need to run 2 x-servers
[06:04] <reisio> Schnabeltierchen: might try again and use nvidia-settings to reconfigure it
[06:05] <Schnabeltierchen> Seven_Six_Two: I also tried that, but my computer refused to use the Intel grafics anymore
[06:06] <Schnabeltierchen> reisio: I´ve done this, the second grafics (the Intel one) didn´t showed up. But the desktop rendered by the nvidia was slow, evewn typing in the terminal was a pain... It was working faster with the normal drivers.
[06:07] <reisio> mmm, then it was probably the wrong nvidia driver
[06:08] <reisio> you might also try, though, setting the nvidia option NVreg_EnableMSI=0
[06:10] <Schnabeltierchen> Mhm, i´ll do that after i slept. I´ll make a backup of my ssd with clonezilla via pxe and instal ubuntu again.
[06:10] <Seven_Six_Two> Schnabeltierchen, in your bios, set nvidia as card #1.
[06:11] <Seven_Six_Two> Schnabeltierchen, http://askubuntu.com/questions/142915/intel-graphic-chipset-and-nvidia-geforce-gtx560
[06:15] <igoryonya> sacarlson1, ok, I will, when I finish.
[06:22] <mindless_chaos> Well I installed the catlyst drivers
[06:22] <mindless_chaos> first reboot seems to be good. Booted up without blank
[06:23] <mindless_chaos> Ill have to reboot a few and make sure its good
[06:23] <mindless_chaos> weird though, I wasn
[06:24] <mindless_chaos> i wasn't able to restart lightdm because when I tried it just crashed
[06:24] <mindless_chaos> but seemed to boot fine
[06:24] <mindless_chaos> now if I can figure out these other damn errors after updating....
[06:24] <mindless_chaos> BLARG
[06:25] <mindless_chaos> time to refer to the logs....
[06:27] <mindless_chaos> curious.. it's not opening previous reports...
[06:34] <davejacobs> when i’m installing ubuntu as a 3rd OS on a 3rd SSD (after Arch and Windows), can I trust Ubuntu to know where to install itself?
[06:34] <davejacobs> or should i manually partition and setup encryption?
[06:36] <mindless_chaos> here is a question for the masses... Installing postfix, in the middle of installing it, it askes to add a new user, however when I type a user name and hit enter it just returns to a new line and that's it
[06:36] <davejacobs> (this isn’t too easy to search in the docs, but I’ve done a little bit of research)
[06:36] <mindless_chaos> any idea's
[06:38] <sacarlson1> davejacobs: with 3 systems you might want to manualy point it.  it will look and ask you so if you like it's pick then maybe that will work too
[06:39] <davejacobs> sacarlson1: are you saying that there’s a way to manually point to an SSD but have Ubuntu do the full installation w/o me partitioning?
[06:41] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: press enter twice?
[06:41] <Seven_Six_Two> davejacobs, do manual partitioning, unless the installer guesses what you want to do by default.
[06:41] <mindless_chaos> lol, pressed it a brazzilion times
[06:41] <sacarlson1> davejacobs: at install time it asks how you want to partition.  one option is other that provides you manual control of partition location and type
[06:41] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: :D
[06:41] <davejacobs> gotcha
[06:41] <mindless_chaos> no dice
[06:41] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: restart the installation maybe
[06:41] <EriC^^> apt-get install --reinstall ...
[06:41] <mindless_chaos> here's what I have to do..
[06:42] <mindless_chaos> kill the passwd
[06:42] <davejacobs> do you know if there’s any way for me to tell which SSD it’s going to partition and install on if i take the non-manual route?
[06:42] <mindless_chaos> then kill the apt-get
[06:42] <mindless_chaos> then apt-get remove postfix
[06:42] <davejacobs> (sounds like i’ll prob go the manual route to not have to do lots of backup restores)
[06:42] <mindless_chaos> then try again, and BOOSH
[06:42] <mindless_chaos> same wall
[06:42] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: try feeding it a "/n" it sounds stupid but ..
[06:42] <EriC^^> actually it just sounds stupid
[06:42] <EriC^^> :D
[06:43] <mindless_chaos> when? when it's *&$(*
[06:43] <mindless_chaos> ill try
[06:43] <davejacobs> sacarlson1, Seven_Six_Two ^
[06:43] <mindless_chaos> anything is woth a shot
[06:43] <Seven_Six_Two> davejacobs, I don't think you can. If you want to be sure, do manual. If you take the risk, one of the options will definitely be to blow away one or all of your current operating systems.
[06:43] <davejacobs> okay gotcha
[06:43] <davejacobs> i’ll go manual
[06:44] <davejacobs> thanks guys
[06:44] <mindless_chaos> no
[06:44] <mindless_chaos> I also tried feeding it a bunch of ctrl letters
[06:44] <mindless_chaos> and z kills it, but its hung in processes, however I had a thought..
[06:45] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: ah, try to put a dot on the newline then press enter
[06:45] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: like the smtp when you enter the data
[06:45] <EriC^^> "." and enter
[06:45] <EriC^^> maybe it expects a lot of users each on a newline
[06:46] <mindless_chaos> whoa
[06:46] <sacarlson> davejacobs: I thought it points out before it does anything this is what it plans to do  with /dev/sda1.... type format of were it plans to put it.  if you just clear a partition it should pick that by default
[06:46] <mindless_chaos> I just got a big pile of junk.. let me look at this
[06:46] <flexd> I am having a weird nvidia/xrandr problem... I can use the machine just fine with a external monitor (extended), but when I try to disable the laptop screen and only use the external screen I get a xrandr error
[06:47] <davejacobs> sacarlson: it feels like the button i was about to press was about to start the partition without confirming, but i could try :)
[06:47] <mindless_chaos> let me remove and start fresh
[06:47] <EriC^^> ok
[06:47] <flexd> Could not switch monitor configuration: could not set the configuration for CRTC 64
[06:48] <mindless_chaos> i don't understand why it is hung up at adding a user....
[06:48] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, do you have the external screen set as primary? how are you disabling the laptop screen?
[06:49] <sacarlson> davejacobs: just keep a close eye on it.  I don't remember off hand were that last confirm is so you can test it in virtualbox to verify you know what it does first if there is much to risk
[06:49] <mindless_chaos> oooh ooooh, maybe...
[06:49] <davejacobs> good idea, i’ll try that out
[06:49] <davejacobs> thanks
[06:49] <mindless_chaos> processing triggers.....

[06:50] <mindless_chaos> hum...
[06:51] <sacarlson> I never tried to setup a dual boot in virtualbox  any one ever try?
[06:51] <mindless_chaos> i dunno
[06:51] <EriC^^> sacarlson: lol :D
[06:51] <mindless_chaos> maybe I just wait????
[06:51] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: Mind you, that fails with just xrandr --output VGA1 --primary too
[06:52] <mindless_chaos> I waited when it seemd to be stuck, and something happend, so maybe I am being impatient, and its working, just not verbosly
[06:52] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: if it's saying processing triggers then it's doing something
[06:52] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: did the user and "." thing work?
[06:53] <mindless_chaos> it looks stuck again
[06:53] <mindless_chaos> it went back to the add new user..
[06:53] <mindless_chaos> I dunno
[06:53] <EriC^^> ok so you add a user then it does this and goes back to add new user?
[06:54] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: Apparently the VGA port is connected to the intel card maybe :/

[07:02] <EriC^^> ok, later
[07:04] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, what ports does you video card have?
[07:05] <flexd> VGA out on the laptop
[07:05] <Xeus> I have LDAP auth setup on my ubuntu server, I have password auth disabled for SSH, I have authorized_keys setup in the user's home directory, user is in LDAP, but user cannot login
[07:05] <Xeus> only my local created account can login with ssh key
[07:05] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, oh that's interesting. you have a laptop with both onboard and external video, but one port?
[07:05] <Xeus> Anyone experience this problem before?
[07:06] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: yes
[07:06] <flexd> If I connect it to a dock it has DVI+HDMI as well
[07:06] <flexd> But that is not an option at the moment :)
[07:06] <user1201> getting this error  E: Can't find a source to download version '4.1.0-1' of 'phoenix:amd64'
[07:07] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, you need bumblebee
[07:08] <Xeus> Does anyone here use LDAP in their ubuntu, but use only SSH keys for SSH login? I'm having trouble logging into my server with LDAP users. My local users can login fine.
[07:08] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, not that that will necessarily help with your problem, but it's designed for optimus.
[07:09] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: Yes, but the laptop has an issue with nvidia
[07:09] <flexd> It's a wonder it is even booting
[07:09] <sacarlson> Xeus: I don't use ldap so not sure what effects that would have on ssh
[07:09] <flexd> nvidia+bios == memory corruption -> Disk corruption
[07:09] <Xeus> sacarlson: thank you :)
[07:10] <flexd> I was however able to get it to boot by installing with nomodeset, and when the install completed I removed nomodeset from the grub config and installed the nvidia drivers, and now it seems to work
[07:10] <flexd> with no corruption at the moment Ø-
[07:10] <flexd> :/*
[07:11] <flexd> So no, I should really not need bumblebee.. :/ https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/bbswitch/issues/78
[07:11] <m000gle> Is there any way to make Unity's dash display All Applications by default, prior to displaying any results when search terms are entered.  This is essentially the same way Gnome Shell displays all apps when no search term is entered.
[07:11] <flexd> The nvidia card is not connected to the VGA port, so it should not matter now.
[07:12] <xangua> m000gle: supet+a (applications)
[07:12] <xangua> super+a
[07:12] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, ok, so if the nv isn't connected to the port, then you're almost certainly referencing the wrong device in xrandr
[07:13] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project
[07:14] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, what's the output of  xrandr -q
[07:14] <m000gle> xangua: This opens the Applications lens, including suggestions etc as well; but it still requires an extra click to view all installed applications.  I'm hoping to view all installed applications by default.
[07:14] <flexd> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9245803/
[07:15] <xangua> m000gle: you can disable to show both recent and suggested apps
[07:15] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: The VGA port works, and I can have the two screens working at the same time
[07:15] <flexd> I just can't set the VGA/external to be primary.._
[07:16] <xangua> m000gle: you can do that with unity tweak tool
[07:17] <m000gle> xangua: Excellent. Thank you!
[07:19] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9245803/
[07:19] <flexd> That is the output
[07:24] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, xrandr --output eDP1 --off
[07:24] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, without mentioning the other
[07:27] <Seven_Six_Two> although it looks like it's failing because you're trying to force the vga port to be primary, not because you're trying to turn off the actual primary
[07:29] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: same thing happens
[07:30] <flexd> or it did before anyway
[07:30] <flexd> brb reboot
[07:30] <flexd> just reinstalled intel drivers
[07:31] <robert_> so I'm looking at using snack/newt for a project of mine, and I'm having issues with figuring out how widgets like snack.Grid() work exactly.
[07:33] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: argh, when I do that I lose all my system tray icons :/
[07:34] <Seven_Six_Two> that's all that happens?
[07:34] <flexd> and also the monitor is not disabled
[07:34] <flexd> I just went to check (it's quite far from me)
[07:35] <Seven_Six_Two> so the system tray icons on your external monitor disappear when you try that command, but there's no other change on either monitor? is there any output from the command?
[07:36] <flexd> No output, tray icons disappear on both
[07:37] <Seven_Six_Two> not that it matters, but what desktop?
[07:37] <flexd> i3wm, started via lightdm (ubuntu LTS standard login thing)
[07:37] <flexd> I am also running gnome-session-daemon and a bunch of other things, so it works pretty much the same as normal gnome, just with a proper tiling wm
[07:38] <WyZeGuY> hi usr13 ! :)
[07:38]  * flexd senses spam
[07:43] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, can you check    xrandr --listproviders    and use the hex code for "id" which matches your onboard vid
[07:43] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, instead of eDP1 on the same xrandr command
[07:43] <flexd> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9246124/
[07:44] <flexd> xrandr --output 0x4a --off
[07:44] <flexd> warning: output (null) not found; ignoring
[07:44] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, xrandr --output 0x4a --off
[07:45] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, xrandr --output Intel --off
[07:45] <flexd> not found
[07:45] <Seven_Six_Two> huh
[07:50] <flexd> But as said, intel is what runs the VGA as well
[07:50] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, does your external turn off when you close the laptop lid?
[07:50] <flexd> The laptop suspends when I close the lid.
[07:50] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, you can change that.
[07:50] <flexd> Yes, but I like it this way, and changing it won't cure a graphics problem.
[07:51] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, if you don't suspend, you can make the laptop screen turn off, and iirc make the external stay on
[07:51] <flexd> and also, opening the laptop screen up again would probably re-enable the laptop screen, so there would be no point :/
[07:52] <sekjun9878> Hello
[07:52] <sekjun9878> I think I have found a bug with preseeding
[07:52] <Seven_Six_Two> why do you need the screen off then?
[07:52] <Seven_Six_Two> sekjun9878, torrents?
[07:53] <sekjun9878> I mean preseeding as in, Installer ISO preconfiguration. This is on the official 14.04 server amd64 ISO, as verified by md5 hash. You can find the video of reproduction here: https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=38CF7909FB5D5B47&id=38CF7909FB5D5B47%211635
[07:53] <mehdi_> hey guys when i run sudo apt-get updatte i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/9246205/  how can i fix it?
[07:53] <sekjun9878> (Video may not work, in which case you can download it. It's only 2MB)
[07:54] <sekjun9878> Essentially, the bug seems to be Ubuntu Installer being unable to read the preconfiguration file at /cdrom/preseed/ubuntu-server.seed....
[07:55] <user1201> getting this error  E: Can't find a source to download version '4.1.0-1' of 'phoenix:amd64'
[07:56] <Ben64> user1201: pastebin the full command and error
[07:56] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: Because I can't see the screen
[07:56] <flexd> The laptop is connected to a KVM, it is in another room
[07:56] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, why is closing the lid no good?
[07:57] <DSK_> Hi
[07:58] <flexd> Because A) Opening it up would turn the screen on again, which would still mean anyone near the laptop could read the things on the screen. and B) Using the lid to  turn off the monitor is no less going to make it fail.
[07:58] <flexd> It still uses xrandr, so what is the difference between the lid-closing running the command or me doing it? absolutely nothing
[07:58] <sekjun9878> Please ping me when anyone technical checks out the bug
[07:58] <flexd> Changing how the command is invoked will not alter how the command is executed.
[08:01] <Ben64> sekjun9878: you haven't provided enough information to check anything
[08:01] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, The first point makes the second irrelevant, but if closing the lid actually turns off the screen, while any invocation of xrandr that you or I come up with fails, then I'm guessing it's the specific arguments needed. I don't profess to be an expert on xrandr. sorry I couldn't help more.
[08:02] <sekjun9878> Ben64: What other information do you need? I am happy to provide them - that's just the proof of reproduction
[08:02] <user1201> Ben64 and all : i have a custom debian package which is unreleased.it got installed but for some reasons i want to remove it but unable to remove it. should i locate and remove all files
[08:02] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, I hadn't actually thought about how it's actually turned off either...
[08:02] <flexd> Seven_Six_Two: My point is that closing the screen would not just magically turn off the screen..
[08:03] <sekjun9878> It might not be a bug for all I know, but that's happening and I can't find any other reasonable explanation for it happening except that it's a bugt
[08:03] <Ben64> user1201: well that is up to you then if it is not an ubuntu package
[08:04] <Seven_Six_Two> flexd, no, fair enough. I hadn't considered it, but I thought maybe the bios managed the switch? I don't know.
[08:07] <Xeus> Does anyone here use LDAP in their ubuntu, but use only SSH keys for SSH login? I'm having trouble logging into my server with LDAP users. My local users can login fine.
[08:19] <warkosign> hi, I had no sound after upgrading to 14.10. tried every troubleshotting step I could find online - everything appears to be working, except I had no sound. No sound even when starting from 14.4 and 14.10 live cds. Any chance the live cds get some settings from the existing partitions ?
[08:20] <warkosign> I am running out of options, considering to install windows
[08:22] <owen1> i modified .Xmodmap and run xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap but my change doesn't apply (keycode 115 = Pointer_Button2 NoSymbol Pointer_Button2) how to troubleshoot this?
[08:28] <warkosign> the only option I see is to disconnect the HDD with the existing ubuntu partition and try the live CD now. if then I have sound, it proves the lack of sound comes from the existing installation. However, even if it's true - how do I tell the live CD NOT to use a partition during its startup ?
[08:29] <kyubotsu> it won't
[08:30] <kyubotsu> the point of the live CD is to boot a system in RAM. or so i think is the point
[08:30] <beware> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-listchanges/+bug/839378 <- what is the best way to get this fix applied on a 14.04 LTS system? (as in, i prefer to not have to compile my own packages)
[08:31] <fvs>  /join #1
[08:31] <warkosign> kyubotsu:I suspect the live CD uses hardware settings of an existing ubuntu installation, otherwise I can't explain how live cd of 14.4 doesn't play sound on my system
[08:33] <owen1> why xmodmap -e "keycode 115 = Pointer_Button2" doesn't turn my 'End' key into middle click? 'End' still behaves as 'End'
[08:33] <OerHeks> beware, is this old 11.04 bug still valid ?
[08:33] <kyubotsu> warkosign: negative. the liveCD will use your hardware though.. it wont touch the HDD unless you mount it
[08:34] <beware> yes, i think, because it happens on a 14.04 system, and it's still being discussed on 2014-07

[08:36] <OerHeks> beware, i just wonder, this bug is regarding an old version, not 14.04.
[08:36] <beware> it happens in 14.04.
[08:36] <beware> i think the bug has simply been around for that long
[08:37] <warkosign> now 14.4 live cd also have no audio ?
[08:38] <warkosign> kyubotsu:do you have another theory how I had sound in 14.4, no sound after upgrade to 14.10 and now 14.4 live cd also has no audio ?
[08:40] <warkosign> another theory is that my sound card died just as I upgraded to 14.10. maybe as a result of the upgrade.
[08:40] <kyubotsu> warkosign: not probable though
[08:41] <warkosign> "Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth"
[08:42] <kyubotsu> sometimes things break. even software. stranger things have happen
[08:43] <warkosign> I'm 100% ok with my existing installation being messed up somehow. I'm less ok with live cd not having audio as well
[08:43] <kyubotsu> i bet you have already reinstall the system . i could suggest you re-download and burn a fresh copy and try again
[08:44] <kyubotsu> has happened to me
[08:46] <warkosign> I downloaded and burned it, this is how I got live cds
[08:46] <warkosign> both 14.4 and 14.10 have no audio
[08:46] <warkosign> I installed a fresh 14.10 on a separate partition, still no audio
[08:46] <user1201> i have a set of deb packages in a directory. some debs are already installed and i want to install those debs who are not installed. is there any command for this
[08:46] <kyubotsu> how about sound settings? everything checks out there?
[08:47] <brontosaurusrex> user1201: dpkg -i *.deb
[08:47] <ash`> user1201: man dpkg
[08:47] <kyubotsu> low volume, wrong output selected, etc?
[08:48] <user1201> brontosaurusrex: will it not install those already installed?
[08:48] <brontosaurusrex> user1201: even if so, so what?
[08:48] <warkosign> kyubotsu: it shows the audio device I have, it's not muted, and when I play something it shows the visualization properly
[08:48] <warkosign> except I don't hear anything.
[08:49] <kyubotsu> there is hope then
[08:49] <kyubotsu> system is up-to-date?
[08:49] <warkosign> fully updated 14.10
[08:50] <user1201> brontosaurusrex: if there are large number then i want to exclude them
[08:51] <brontosaurusrex> user1201: move them away then
[08:51] <brontosaurusrex> user1201: or try what happens
[08:52] <kyubotsu> warkosign: how about the sound test in audio settings, does it also seem to play out with  no sound?
[08:52] <ash`> user1201: using "man dpkg" contains the documentation that may help you
[08:52] <warkosign> kyubotsu: yep. aplay <file> as well.
[08:53] <ash`> user1201: For example dpkg --yet-to-unpack *may* be the flag you need; maybe just "dpkg *.deb" to test their status; i'd recommend looking there first.
[08:53] <kyubotsu> warkosign: do you have a sound card or just the onboard audio?
[08:54] <warkosign> onboard audio
[08:54] <kyubotsu> warkosign: and you're sure speakers are plugged in the correct socket?
[08:54] <ash`> user1201: then with that you could pipe any result via grep and output a list to a tmp file; use that to move installed deb packages and then use the command as suggested by brontosaurusrex.
[08:56] <warkosign> kyubotsu:they worked before the upgrade, so I assume they are. I did try every possible socket since. Also, when I mute/unmute there is a click, and when I set volume for microphone or line in for very high value in alsamixer I hear humming
[08:56] <user1201> ash`: sudo dpkg --yet-to-unpack *.deb
[08:56] <user1201> dpkg: error: --yet-to-unpack takes no arguments
[08:57] <kyubotsu> warkosign: even the front ones for headphones?
[08:57] <warkosign> did not try these, will try once I get home
[08:58] <ash`> user1201: probably because it's a global flag - then try "-I" or "--info"
[08:59] <ash`> i'd still just do what brontosaurusrex said: install them all anyway - since if it's installed it wont reinstall unless told to do so
[08:59] <kyubotsu> warkosign: at least we have determined software is functional so it must be a hardware issue. whether it is a hardware failure is still to be proved
[09:01] <kyubotsu> unfortunately i don't know how else to test this. and purchasing a sound card for this purpose might be overkill , although not necessarily a bad thing
[09:01] <warkosign> kyubotsu:I don't mind paying, if I know it would solve the problem
[09:02] <warkosign> as you said it's very imporobable that the hardware broke just as I upgraded to 14.10
[09:02] <warkosign> whether it's actual breaking or just cable unplugging
[09:02] <bmxerkid503> I have a question about installing ubuntu 14.04 lts on a brand new All in One Asus Desktop that has uefi.
[09:04] <kyubotsu> warkosign: do you connect your monitor thru HDMI?
[09:04] <bmxerkid503> Everytime i boot up the usb after writing the iso to it, i select "try before installing" in the grub loader. it loads for 10 seconds or so, and then I get a text printout. The last few lines are: Kernel panic ..... then ..... Switching back to text console
[09:04] <bmxerkid503> and it stays there
[09:04] <bmxerkid503> how do i fix that?
[09:04] <warkosign> kyubotsu:DVI
[09:04] <EriC^^> bmxerkid503: what's the panic about?
[09:04] <bmxerkid503> Eric, it just says kernel panic
[09:05] <EriC^^> bmxerkid503: try nomodeset
[09:05] <bmxerkid503> maybe I should have taken a picture
[09:05] <EriC^^> !nomodeset
[09:05] <bmxerkid503> how do i do that?
[09:05] <EriC^^> when you get grub, press e
[09:05] <bmxerkid503> okay. i will check it out
[09:05] <bmxerkid503> Thanks guys. Ill be back to let you know if that fixes it or not
[09:05] <EriC^^> then add "nomodeset" to the kernel line that starts with Linux vmlinuz....
[09:05] <EriC^^> and press ctrl+x or f10 to execute it
[09:06] <bmxerkid503> okay thank you
[09:06] <Kodan> execute that shit, will ya?
[09:06] <kyubotsu> i see. i don't think DVI routes sound but if it did maybe sound is now being sent to monitor speakers
[09:06] <kyubotsu> just thinking out loud ...
[09:08] <Kodan> kyubotsu, thinkin' it out is my motto
[09:08] <kipster> hiya niggers!
[09:08] <Kodan> kipster, behave
[09:08] <kipster> free speech?
[09:08] <Kodan> not in here
[09:08] <kipster> oh :(
[09:10] <kyubotsu> warkosign: there is also a ##hardware channel you can check out ..
[09:10] <warkosign> kyubotsu:I saw that many people had sound problems related to HDMI, but it's not my case. Anyway, I checked - a USB sound controller is super cheap, so if I have no better idea I'll try to get one.
[09:10] <warkosign> kyubotsu:are they likely to understand ubuntu problems ?
[09:11] <Kodan> warkosign, no.
[09:11] <Kodan> warkosign; most of the people in there are windows lunatics.
[09:11] <warkosign> if nothing else works I'll have to switch to windows
[09:11] <warkosign> but I'd like to avoid it,
[09:11] <warkosign> btw, I work for microsoft :)
[09:12] <Kodan> cool, what job?
[09:12] <warkosign> software developer
[09:12] <Kodan> where?
[09:12] <warkosign> israel
[09:12] <Kodan> ah very nice
[09:12] <Kodan> do you get paid nicely?
[09:12] <warkosign> very nicely
[09:12] <kyubotsu> don't do usb for sound, get a pci sound card instead
[09:12] <Kodan> warkosign, how much per year?
[09:13] <warkosign> Kyoshiro`:pci is 8 times more expensive, $6 vs $43
[09:13] <warkosign> I may try USB just to see if it solves the problem
[09:14] <warkosign> 7 times, error in conversion currencies
[09:15] <warkosign> Kodan: ~$110K
[09:15] <Kodan> warkosign; sharing is caring, remember?
[09:15] <EriC^^> lol
[09:15] <White_Cat> Kodan what if I dont care in general but still share?
[09:15] <kipster> fuck you jew
[09:15] <warkosign> but it's different to compare - different tax, bonus structure, social benefits
[09:16] <kipster> seriously?
[09:16] <Tm_T> kipster: seriously, you either behave or you're out
[09:16] <bmxerkid503> So i am back...
[09:16] <EriC^^> bmxerkid503: heya
[09:16] <bmxerkid503> I tried --nomodeset
[09:16] <bmxerkid503> this is what i get
[09:16] <kipster> Tim_T you're a real asshole. Give me your address, so I can come over and kick your ass
[09:16] <EriC^^> it's nomodeset, don't know if the -- matters, is it on the link?

[09:24] <EriC^^> i don't think you need --

[10:17] <EriC^^> bmxerkid503: get 12.04 LTS
[10:18] <bmxerkid503> Okay I'll download it.
[10:18] <EriC^^> bmxerkid503: then you ran upgrade to 14.04 LTS if you want
[10:18] <bmxerkid503> Will it keep the 12.04 kernel?
[10:18] <bmxerkid503> I'm reading that it may be the kernel
[10:18] <EriC^^> no, it'll upgrade everything
[10:18] <Lachezar> Hey all. Upgraded to 14.10 Xubuntu. Now when I drag-drop icons around my desktop the mouse cursor becomes a distorted variant of the icon that was dragged and does not rever back. Tried doing a screenshot, but it does not capture the mouse cursor.
[10:19] <bmxerkid503> So if it is the kernel...
[10:19] <EriC^^> bmxerkid503: ill brb
[10:19] <bmxerkid503> Okay
[10:19] <Ben64> bmxerkid503: turn off secureboot and enable legacy booting and try again
[10:20] <bmxerkid503> Commands for that?
[10:20] <Ben64> its in the bios somewhere
[10:20] <bmxerkid503> Secureboot is off
[10:20] <bmxerkid503> No option for legacy
[10:20] <bmxerkid503> Disabled interrupt capture 19
[10:21] <Ben64> are you in the bios right now
[10:21] <bmxerkid503> I will hop in. One second
[10:21] <Ben64> then how are you seeing that secureboot is off and no option for legacy
[10:21] <bmxerkid503> Cause I already adjusted the secure boot
[10:22] <bmxerkid503> As well as boot priorities
[10:22] <bmxerkid503> And I have been searching for this fix for a few hours.
[10:22] <bmxerkid503> Legacy was an option I tried finding.
[10:23] <OerHeks> maybe fastboot is the issue?
[10:23] <bmxerkid503> Fastboot is disabled.
[10:24] <bmxerkid503> I'm saving my stuff right now. Then I'll boot into my bios.
[10:26] <bmxerkid503> In bios
[10:27] <mattzilla> Hey guys, I'm trying to install from the live DVD, I'm getting an error. Any help?

[10:32] <nedal> Hi, please what s the difference between changing the value oh the mask using ' umask', modifying  it on '.bash_profile' and on ' /ect/profile' ??
[10:34] <geirha> nedal: .bash_profile won't help you much if you use gui, but if you mean ~/.profile vs /etc/profile, then the difference is whether it applies only to your user or to all users that log in
[10:37] <nedal> geirha_ then what for .bash_profile is used to ?
[10:37] <nedal> what's for*
[10:42] <iptable> nedal: ~/.bash_profile is used to set environment profile for the bash shell for a particular user
[10:43] <iptable> nedal: it is run every time you start bash as a particular user. Even if you use su to change to that user or just type in bash to start another bash shell.
[10:43] <iptable> or open a terminal window for that matter
[10:43] <Roda> I'm having issues updating my lubuntu software. Would anybody help?
[10:45] <OerHeks> Roda what issue do you have?
[10:47] <nedal> iptable_ thanks, that was so helpful :)
[10:54] <bmxerkid503> So I can boot Ubuntu 13.04 but not 14.04
[10:54] <bmxerkid503> It is a kernel issue. How do I update to 14.04 while keeping 13.04 kernel.
[10:55] <Ben64> bmxerkid503: you don't. 13.04 is not supported anymore
[10:55] <Ben64> bmxerkid503: you can use 14.04 or you can use 12.04
[10:56] <OerHeks> maybe it is not a kernel issue, just a xorg issue?
[10:56] <bmxerkid503> So I'll grab 12.04. Can I keep 12.04 kernel?
[10:56] <Ben64> yes
[10:56] <bmxerkid503> What is xorg?
[10:56] <bmxerkid503> I have never heard of that.
[10:56] <Ben64> !xorg
[10:57] <bmxerkid503> Thank you. I'll give 1204 a shot and see about upgrading to 14 and keeping 12 kernel. If I run into any issues, I'll be back.
[10:58] <bmxerkid503> I appreciate all the help.
[10:58] <Ben64> no
[10:58] <Ben64> you can't use 12.04's kernel on 14.04
[10:58] <bmxerkid503> Oh dang
[10:58] <bmxerkid503> Okay :(
[10:58] <Ben64> but 12.04 is still supported
[10:58] <Ben64> or give 14.10 a shot
[10:58] <OerHeks> try to boot 14.10 i guess, as last resort
[10:59] <xubuntu> hola penya
[10:59] <bmxerkid503> I'll grab 14.10 and see if it works. I'll be back in about 20

[11:05] <BadApe> hi, is there a "stable"ish release of gcc 4.9 ppa for 14.04?
[11:06] <cfhowlett> BadApe, ppa?  not supported here.
[11:07] <BadApe> cfhowlett: just wondering if there was a way to get gcc 4.9, usually a ppa will do
[11:08] <cfhowlett> BadApe, sorry, IDK.  my version is 4.4.8.2-1
[11:08] <BadApe> cfhowlett: seems there is a ppa most people use
[11:08] <OerHeks> !info gcc utopic
[11:08] <OerHeks> utopic has 4.9.1
[11:08] <BadApe> !info gcc trusty
[11:08] <BadApe> i want to stick with LTS
[11:09] <OerHeks> wait for 16.04 lts then
[11:09] <cfhowlett> BadApe, agreed!
[11:09] <ikonia> and yet you want to use the random PPA for your compiler ?
[11:09] <welovfree> hello
[11:09] <BadApe> OerHeks: sure i will ask the project to wait, haha
[11:09] <BadApe> ikonia: better than nothing
[11:09] <ikonia> BadApe: I don't think it is
[11:10] <ikonia> BadApe: I think it's the opposite, you'd be better upgrading to a supported release - where there is at least some support / upstream
[11:11] <OerHeks> BadApe, the 'most trusted' ppa has no candidate for trusty > https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/ppa?field.series_filter=trusty

[11:14] <bmxerkid503> Booting Ubuntu 14.10 right now.
[11:15] <bmxerkid503> Wth
[11:15] <bmxerkid503> 14.10 works....... No issues.
[11:15] <bmxerkid503> Booted from USB in less than 30 seconds.
[11:15] <OerHeks> bmxerkid503, good to hear
[11:15] <bmxerkid503> So.... Why doesn't LTS boot
[11:16] <welovfree> why when unseting a variable in a child shell, don't unset it in the parent shell?
[11:16] <OerHeks> Maybe an intel 4400 issue ..
[11:16] <bmxerkid503> I'm glad it now works as well, I thank you for trying to troubleshoot with me.
[11:16] <OerHeks> bmxerkid503, have fun
[11:17] <bmxerkid503> Oh I will! I'm away from dreaded windows 8.1 now.
[11:17] <bmxerkid503> Thank you guys. Take care.
[11:17] <BadApe> OerHeks: seems like you need the test ppa for g++ 4.9
[11:17] <welovfree> hello guys
[11:21] <welovfree> when I type in terminal "whereis -b tar" it shows "/bin/tar" but for "whereis -b cd" it shows "cd:" why is that?
[11:30] <javnut> this is going to sound crazy, because it is
[11:30] <javnut> I want to set up a server which waits for javascript to AJAX commands to it
[11:30] <javnut> and then I want those commands executed on my computer
[11:30] <ubuntuser13> unable to reset unity, unity restore to default automatically ?
[11:31] <BadApe> javnut: what?
[11:31] <iptable> javnut: you want to receive commands on your webserver and execute them?
[11:31] <iptable> javnut: do you know how ajax works?
[11:31] <javnut> iptable: yes
[11:31] <javnut> yes to both your questions
[11:32] <BadApe> why do you want to do that?
[11:32] <javnut> I want certain windows to pop up when someone does a certain thing
[11:32] <iptable> javnut: ajax is a javascript interface which essentially connects to your webserver with post variables. so essentially you want apache2 webserver with php, and you want php to execute whatever it get's in an ajax call POST parameter on the box.
[11:32] <javnut> windows to pop up on my side I mean
[11:32] <BadApe> javnut: so you want to create some web services to execute commands
[11:32] <iptable> javnut: so what is stopping a malicious person from rm -rf / ?
[11:32] <javnut> iptable: yup, but I don't know php
[11:33] <javnut> iptable: if statements
[11:33] <BadApe> javnut: what do you know?
[11:33] <javnut> BadApe: java, c#
[11:33] <javnut> some c++
[11:33] <BadApe> then use java
[11:33] <BadApe> write a simple cgi script
[11:33] <BadApe> post some commands and have them exec
[11:33] <javnut> I'm doing it in php
[11:33] <iptable> javnut: or harvest the code from this: http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/beginners-guide-to-ajax-development-with-php
[11:33] <javnut> because I can't
[11:33] <BadApe> i can't wait to compromise your system
[11:34] <BadApe> ok then do it in php
[11:34] <BadApe> doesn't matter what language
[11:34] <iptable> javnut: but on the data you get from ajax in PHP, execute the exec() or system() instead. check php.net documentation for the exec commands and their parameters
[11:34] <javnut> BadApe: ok, this is going to get even crazier
[11:34] <OerHeks> iptable, without sudo that comand is useless
[11:34] <BadApe> he can execute the script as root
[11:34] <iptable> OerHeks: that depends on WHAT he wants to execute
[11:34] <iptable> but yes
[11:35] <BadApe> that is a good idea
[11:35] <BadApe> by the way, don't do anything i just said
[11:35] <javnut> what if I want like a circular closed loop, only ajax calls from the same computer will reach the server
[11:35] <BadApe> javnut: do you know what ajax is?
[11:35] <javnut> BadApe: yes
[11:36] <iptable> javnut: you could run as root. although a better option would be this: 1. user enters webpage and asks to do a predefined command. 2. php code writes this down to a text file. 3. a c/bash application runs and check what the command is and interprets it to a safe executable command and runs that instead.
[11:36] <javnut> iptable: way ahead of you on that
[11:36] <iptable> javnut: so you want that only on local box, as in make the webserver listen on loopback interface only?
[11:36] <javnut> well, not way ahead, but exactly there
[11:36] <BadApe> just make sure someone doesn't guess a way to escape and inject their own commands
[11:36] <javnut> iptable: yes
[11:37] <iptable> javnut: just make apache2 webserver listen on 127.0.0.1 only
[11:37] <BadApe> you will have to sanitize the data
[11:37] <javnut> BadApe: well, they won't
[11:37] <BadApe> you hope they won't
[11:37] <javnut> especially since this is only going to be from the same computer
[11:37] <BadApe> why do you need a webapp to do this?
[11:37] <iptable> javnut: I do something similar to punch a hole in my firewalls from very restricted locations. I access a php page, php notes down my IP to a text file and a bash script opens iptables firewall for that IP.
[11:37] <javnut> I have a grease monkey file which does stuff
[11:38] <javnut> but sometimes, it needs me to do stuff manually
[11:38] <javnut> and I need firefox to popup when I need to manually do stuff
[11:38] <iptable> javnut: time to learn php then ;) check the link I sent you. it's a step by step for php and ajax.
[11:39] <iptable> javnut: also, configuring apache2 to listen on localhost only is a breaze
[11:39] <BadApe> sounds like the most horrible idea i've heard in here for ages
[11:39] <iptable> BadApe: no, it's classed as a not good idea, but not the worst of the week :P
[11:39] <BadApe> no? have you heard a worse one?
[11:39] <javnut> BadApe: well then what's a better solution?
[11:40] <BadApe> javnut: i don't really understand what your end goal is
[11:40] <iptable> BadApe: besides if you happen to be in a location where only ports 80 and 443 are allowed out and you normally run a webserver on those, how will you ssh? webserver-type-port-knocking ;)
[11:40] <javnut> for my firefox window to popup so I can do the manual stuff that I can't do with javascript
[11:41] <iptable> javnut: if it's only local and you have a script which will sanitise what php asks it to do (instead of raw commands, have a "i want you to do this" interface between them)
[11:41] <iptable> javnut: then it's fine
[11:41] <javnut> iptable: I agree it's fine, but if there's a better solution
[11:41] <javnut> I'm all ears
[11:42] <BadApe> i don't get what the problem is in the first place
[11:42] <iptable> javnut: well, I don't know what the exact goal is, so can't say. How about an email notification? or a jabber message?
[11:42] <javnut> nope, it has to pop up
[11:42] <iptable> javnut: a popping up jabber message then?
[11:42] <javnut> yeah, that's fine
[11:43] <iptable> javnut: or run your own SIP server which will call your mobile phone :D
[11:43] <welovfree> hello
[11:43] <javnut> that's worse, not better
[11:43] <iptable> javnut: me and BadApe do not know what the actual goal is, so can't really advise on other ways to do that.
[11:43] <iptable> javnut: run your own SIP serer which will call your phone and TELL YOU what you need to do manually. that's cool!
[11:43] <javnut> iptable: basically, I just need an alert for when my javascript file is at an impass
[11:43] <BadApe> i've been trying to understand what he is doing, not the technical detail of what he thinks it needs to be
[11:44] <BadApe> but i am about done, my head is starting to hurt with the craziness
[11:44] <iptable> javnut: we still cannot read minds. we don't know what javascript, what it's meant to do and how people interact with it.
[11:44] <javnut> BadApe: like I said, I inject web pages with a javascript which does stuff for me
[11:44] <jorge_> good morning
[11:44] <javnut> but eventually, it asks me for a captcha
[11:44] <ubuntuser13> unity desktop behaves abnormally how to reset unity?
[11:44] <iptable> javnut: "does stuff for me" and "inject web pages" is not descriptive.
[11:44] <javnut> it doesn't need to be
[11:45] <iptable> well, I can't advise you if you are not specific, can I?
[11:45] <BadApe> iptable: i use magic
[11:45] <javnut> and inject web pages -- I just put javascript code into web pages
[11:45] <javnut> greasemonkey
[11:45] <iptable> javnut: are you building automation using javascript to query external website and make them do stuff?
[11:45] <javnut> iptable: yes
[11:45] <BadApe> are you trying to remotely control a website?
[11:45] <BadApe> i wrote a crawler that processed pages before
[11:45] <javnut> uhhh.. don't you remotely control all websites?
[11:46] <iptable> javnut: you do realise that they have captcha appear at some point because their T&Cs don't allow automation, and therefore you are braking their rules and the law?
[11:46] <javnut> iptable: yes
[11:46] <iptable> javnut: well, I'm sorry for this, but we cannot help you break the law on this channel
[11:46] <BadApe> i would say i interact with a website, i don't control it
[11:46] <iptable> we only do legal stuff here
[11:47] <iptable> ubuntuser13: what's behaves abnormally?
[11:47] <javnut> is it legal if no one cares?
[11:47] <BadApe> i am sure the people who run the site care
[11:47] <iptable> javnut: no, your question is: is it legal if no one noticed? No, it's illegal activities to go against T&Cs
[11:47] <BadApe> that is why they put the capture there to stop robots dos'ing them
[11:47] <Ben64> its not even within the scope of this channel
[11:47] <javnut> maybe. I'd contact them, but that seems hard
[11:48] <Ben64> this channel is for ubuntu support only
[11:48] <ubuntuser13> iptable:unity
[11:48] <AlexPortable> ok
[11:48] <iptable> javnut: this conversation is over
[11:48] <BadApe> maybe they will provide you access to a web api so you don't need to manipulate their site
[11:48] <javnut> Ben64 it was, I was trying to create an interface between ubuntu and the javascript
[11:48] <iptable> ubuntuser13: what does "unity behvae abnormally" mean? what's it doing?
[11:48] <Ben64> javnut: really isn't on topic here. just because you do something in Ubuntu doesn't make it on topic for this channel
[11:49] <AlexPortable> So I installed this nvidia driver, and set grub acpi=off. Now system won't show anything on screen. How do I fix this?
[11:49] <javnut> Ben64 how so?
[11:49] <BadApe> iptable: i commend your patience!
[11:50] <javnut> if I'm trying to communicate with my desktop environment, that's pretty ubuntu
[11:50] <ubuntuser13> iptable: i trying to reset it but fails, i want to remove unity dash icons but unable to do that,also unable to reconfigure my mouse.in simple words, after login unity restored to default automatically.
[11:50] <Ben64> javnut: nope
[11:50] <iptable> javnut: you were asking about php coding, not about ubuntu-related issues. you also admitted to intentionally breaking the law. that;s 2 reasons. enough
[11:50] <iptable> ubuntuser13: if you create a new user account and login as that, does it work as expected for that new user?
[11:50] <javnut> I agree, but I was breaking the law ubuntu-specifically
[11:51] <iptable> enough
[11:51] <iptable> BadApe: I used to be extremely active on #ubuntu and #linux until the last 2 months or so when I got distracted by work. I learnt my patience ;)
[11:51] <ubuntuser13> iptable: ok i will try
[11:52] <iptable> why thank you :)
[11:53] <BadApe> iptable: just scream hack the planet and run, i don't suppose anyone gets the reference any more
[11:55] <iptable> sadly not
[11:55] <BadApe> a very bad 90's movie called hackers, worth a watch if you are into drinking and pizza
[11:55] <Lachezar> Is there any way I can find out what ./configure parameters were used to create a specific package for Ubuntu?
[11:56] <iptable> BadApe: I seen it. was entertaining for what it was. Hackers 2 (Kevin Mitnick) one was more realistic but lest entertaining too :P
[11:57] <iptable> Lachezar: apt-source to get source packages and ubuntu-specific modifications
[11:58] <Lachezar> iptable: I'd like to rebuild a package from source WITHOUT the ubuntu-specific modifications, but I suspect there are specific parameters I need to give ./configure lik e--prefix and such.
[11:59] <iptable> Lachezar: as I already said, download the source using apt-source and look at ubuntu-specific stuff. it will tell you how it was built and configured
[11:59] <Lachezar> iptable: OK. Looking into it.
[12:02] <Lachezar> iptable: For PPAs do I still use apt-source?
[12:02] <basichash> Anyone know how to enable webGL for ubuntu 14.04? Chrome, Intel i5, Intel 4000 Graphics
[12:03] <iptable> Lachezar: if the source packages are there and you have the PPA for source, yes. if not, sorry, no go.
[12:04] <iptable> basichash: install google-chrome and it's working
[12:04] <ubuntuser13> iptable: unity works fine in guest session.but in this session even i can't change wallpaper.
[12:04] <Lachezar> iptable: Looking at the PPA contents can see *.dsc and *.debian.tar.gz and *.orig.tar.bz2. Is this a good indicator that the sources are available?
[12:04] <iptable> basichash: also, for some cards you need to do this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/299345/how-to-enable-webgl-in-chrome-on-ubuntu
[12:05] <iptable> ubuntuser13: can you change wallpaper in guest session?
[12:05] <the_tricky> hello, guys
[12:05] <the_tricky> changed my launcher's color with compizconfig
[12:05] <iptable> ubuntuser13: looks like permissions issue. chown -R youruser:youruser /home/youruser
[12:05] <iptable> ubuntuser13: replace youruser with your username
[12:06] <basichash> iptable: yeah had to change #ignore-gpu-blacklist, cheers
[12:06] <ubuntuser13> iptable: ok
[12:06] <the_tricky> why doesn't it change automatically now when i change my wallpaper?
[12:06] <iptable> Lachezar: download, unzip, you will see
[12:06] <the_tricky> any ideas?
[12:06] <iptable> basichash: no worries
[12:07] <iptable> the_tricky: is it meant to change when you change wallpaper?
[12:07] <the_tricky> iptable: i think so, because it did before
[12:08] <ubuntuser13> iptable: yes it works, Thankyou so so much for help.
[12:08] <iptable> the_tricky: check with a new user account. if problem persists, it's a global system issue. if not, it's a rpoblem with your user dconf/gconf settings
[12:08] <Marasgeon> Hey guys, a friend of mine send me a txt file from windows which is default ANSI encoding and gedit can't recognize the characters, how can I read it?
[12:08] <iptable> ubuntuser13: no worries
[12:08] <the_tricky> iptable: thanks, i will try that
[12:08] <iptable> Marasgeon: standard text file (txt)? dos2unix tool will do that
[12:09] <Marasgeon> iptable: yes, is that an app?
[12:09] <iptable> Marasgeon: yes. command-line utility
[12:10] <iptable> Marasgeon: sudo apt-get install dos2unix
[12:10] <iptable> Marasgeon: then run dos2unix /your/file/here
[12:10] <Marasgeon> iptable: so everytime i will have to convert the txt file?
[12:10] <iptable> Marasgeon: that will convert the file escape chars to unix format
[12:10] <iptable> Marasgeon: yes. Windows is incompatible with the rest of the world. Rest of world uses \n escape. Windows uses 2 characters, \r\n
[12:11] <iptable> Marasgeon: blame windows. they "reinvented" the wheel
[12:11] <Marasgeon> iptable: Many thanks!
[12:11] <iptable> no worries

[13:03] <Aer93> ikonia: yeeep :)
[13:03] <ikonia> Aer93: I'm not aware of any flag that will add the "st" or "rd" or "th" you'd have to write a script to do that base on the number
[13:04] <Aer93> ikonia: ok
[13:06] <dominik> How can i create my own distro based on ubuntu? Any piece of advice?

[13:58] <cfhowlett> snadge, gnome flashback?  what the deuce?
[13:58] <snadge> default unity session doesnt appear to have this proble
[13:58] <nedal> cfhowlett_ ok i did
[13:59] <cfhowlett> nedal, report or paste the outcome
[13:59] <snadge> flashback is the old gnome 2 interface basically.. can use either metacity or compiz, pretty cool

[14:04] <_war10ck_> Mandeep_Singh: gimme some time to check
[14:04] <abhinav> hi
[14:05] <cfhowlett> nedal, your ppa's are acting up.  ignore:    sudo apt-get install vlc

[14:06] <abhinav> ok
[14:06] <nedal> cfhowlett_ cool, it's working
[14:06] <nedal> thanks
[14:07] <cfhowlett> nedal, happy2help
[14:08] <nedal> would you mind if you explain to me what was wrong and how did you fixed it cfhowlett ?
[14:09] <_war10ck_> Mandeep_Singh: What is the output of this command? lsmod |grep r8101
[14:09] <cfhowlett> nedal, your video drivers are not properly configured for your GPU.  vlc ships with its own set of drivers which generally work when others fail.
[14:11] <Mandeep_Singh> _war10ck_, nothing shows up
[14:11] <nedal> cfhowlett_  I see :D Thanks again
[14:12] <cfhowlett> !video | nedal, for the record, VLC may not work in all cases. you will want to suss out the issue at some point.
[14:14] <_war10ck_> Mandeep_Singh: The problem is that the module for your wireless card is not loaded hence the connection drops
[14:14] <nedal> cfhowlett_ for recording i m using GTK UVC video viewer
[14:15] <_war10ck_> Mandeep_Singh: You need to download and build the module for your card, instructions can be found here : http://askubuntu.com/questions/470609/rtl8101e-rtl8102e-not-working-with-ubuntu-14-04-hp-g61
[14:15] <Mandeep_Singh> _war10ck_, btw I tried a solution on askubuntu and found a script and it's not disconnected for some time now
[14:15] <Mandeep_Singh> _war10ck_, trying
[14:16] <samgoody> I would like to update the default python from v3.2 to v3.4
[14:16] <_war10ck_> Mandeep_Singh: Okay, check if this one works out
[14:17] <samgoody> I can install python3.4 alongside, but its not working for what I need
[14:17] <somsip> samgoody: how have you installed it?
[14:17] <samgoody> I need it to be the default.
[14:17] <samgoody> sudo apt-get python3.4
[14:17] <samgoody> With the ppa that has all versions of python
[14:18] <somsip> samgoody: so swap /usr/bin/python to point at python3.4 executable. Sounds a bit ugly though...
[14:18] <samgoody> there is /usr/bin/python3 and /usr/bin/python3.4
[14:19] <samgoody> If I replace the former with a symlink tot he latter, that should be enough
[14:19] <somsip> samgoody: I'd expect important stuff that relies on 2.7 to break as a result. You could be making all manner of issues for yourself
[14:19] <samgoody> ?
[14:19] <samgoody> No, will leave python (which maps to python 2.x) alone
[14:19] <samgoody> Am just updating python3 which maops to python 3.2
[14:19] <somsip> samgoody: you want python3 to default to 3.4? Just overwrite the link then
[14:20] <samgoody> Meaning symlink to 3.4 in usr/bin?
[14:21] <somsip> samgoody: /usr/bin/python3 should point to the same executable as /usr/bin/python3.4 (which I believe is probably a symlink too)
[14:21] <samgoody> Oh look, it is
[14:21] <samgoody> Thats great thanks
[14:26] <_war10ck_> Mandeep_Singh: Did it work?
[14:28] <Mandeep_Singh> _war10ck_, I tried a script while talking to you and now it's not been disconnected since approx. half an hour.
[14:28] <Mandeep_Singh> _war10ck_, should I try anymore?
[14:29] <Mandeep_Singh> _war10ck_, it's the first time I faced this problem.
[14:30] <Mandeep_Singh> Hey guys, I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and when I try to copy large amount of files (in gb's) then Ubuntu's performance decreases and sometimes it freezes. Why is this happening? My friends faced that too.
[14:31] <somsip> Mandeep_Singh: run top and check the iowait figure. Possibly down to HD performance or filesystem
[14:44] <Quatroking> in the past all my programs would be neatly organized in folders (games, office, system tools, etc.)

[14:47] <katastrof1> I search a complet documentation to use dvd::rip
[14:48] <katastrof1> If someone can help me it will be so cool a pdf will be super
[14:48] <AlexPortable> How can I start a graphical program from ubuntu server?
[14:48] <k1l_> AlexPortable: what program?
[14:48] <AlexPortable> I want to start XBMC, I installed it, but it says i need opengl ddriver
[14:49] <k1l_> AlexPortable: does this server got a monitor or other video output device?
[14:49] <AlexPortable> yes
[14:49] <Quatroking> EriC^^, does this autostart with ubuntu or do I have to manually add it?
[14:50] <AlexPortable> monitor\
[14:50] <k1l_> AlexPortable: how did you install it?
[14:50] <AlexPortable> usb
[14:50] <k1l_> no, xbmc
[14:50] <AlexPortable> oh
[14:50] <AlexPortable> apt-get install xbmc
[14:50] <AlexPortable> I'm testing it in virtualbox now, because I can't get it to work on my main system
[14:51] <katastrof1> I'm using dvd::rip but I want to use it better. I didn't find an official documentation, can someone help me?
[14:52] <AlexPortable> k1l_: any clue?
[14:53] <EriC^^> Quatroking: no idea
[14:53] <k1l_> so this is a vbox?
[14:53] <EriC^^> Quatroking: check the dash > startup apps
[14:53] <k1l_> AlexPortable: installed the guest-additions?
[14:53] <mribeirodantas> Ubuntu 10.04 LTS is still under support?
[14:54] <mribeirodantas> 10.04.3
[14:54] <OerHeks> mribeirodantas, 10.04 server only
[14:54] <k1l_> mribeirodantas: only server installs
[14:54] <mribeirodantas> Yes, server.
[14:54] <mribeirodantas> I mean, it is in a server. How do I know if it's the server version?
[14:54] <k1l_> mribeirodantas: but only to april next year
[14:54] <Quatroking> EriC^^, cool, it added itself
[14:55] <mribeirodantas> lsb_release does not tell me that.
[14:55] <DanMAbraham> is anyone here a bitcoin user?
[14:55] <cfhowlett> mribeirodantas, release notes tell you that
[14:55] <k1l_> mribeirodantas: only server related packages are maintained.
[14:55] <AlexPortable> k1l_: no, is that neccessary?
[14:55] <k1l_> AlexPortable: yes.
[14:55] <mribeirodantas> k1l_, oh, that sucks. I want to set up a python project in this server 10.04.3
[14:55] <mribeirodantas> What's the best option without compromising the entire server? (having to resinstall, and so on)
[14:56] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | mribeirodantas,
[14:56] <k1l_> !ot | DanMAbraham
[14:56] <cfhowlett> mribeirodantas, but you might also ask #ubuntu-server
[14:56] <LeartS> what python version does 10.04 ships ?
[14:56] <AlexPortable> k1l_: after that reboot?
[14:56] <mribeirodantas> LeartS, I managed to install 3.3.1. The problem is pip with is 0. sometihng =/
[14:56] <NeonGen> would this be the right place to ask a question about h.264 playback?
[14:57] <NeonGen> under ubuntu
[14:57] <Pici> LeartS: 2.6.5
[14:57] <DanMAbraham> soz
[14:57] <cfhowlett> NeonGen, ask
[14:57] <k1l_> mribeirodantas: seems like you want to upgrade anyway
[14:57] <AlexPortable> hi NeonGen
[14:57] <NeonGen> whenever I try to playback a video from youtube using minitube or VLC, it plays with too much brightness
[14:57] <cfhowlett> LeartS, 10.04 desktop is long since end-of-life
[14:57] <k1l_> AlexPortable: i mean the system inside the vbox since its the guest who needs the guest additions.
[14:58] <AlexPortable> yes
[14:58] <AlexPortable> k1l_: installed. and rebooted. what now?
[14:58] <mribeirodantas> k1l_, I can't.
[14:58] <KatnissEverdeen> hi
[14:58] <k1l_> AlexPortable: see if the error happens again
[14:58] <LeartS> mribeirodantas: why would you set up a python 3 project on a 10.04 server? that's a really strange combo
[14:59] <AlexPortable> yes it does
[14:59] <AlexPortable> Error: unable to open display
[14:59] <AlexPortable> i think it's because it's in text mode (ctrl alt f1)
[14:59] <mribeirodantas> LeartS, The server is being used by several other projects
[14:59] <mribeirodantas> They gave me space in it
[14:59] <mribeirodantas> I can't just do a fresh install. Several other projects are using it
[15:00] <k1l_> AlexPortable: look into the settings you did for that guest. choose wisely. error will be gone
[15:03] <Guest89407> hi
[15:14] <NeonGen> anyone know how to fix h.264 playback being way too bright under ubuntu?
[15:14] <reisio> NeonGen: via what player?
[15:14] <NeonGen> both VLC and minitube
[15:14] <reisio> NeonGen: probably how your graphics driver is configured, but
[15:15] <reisio> NeonGen: VLC can play at any brightness/gamma you prefer
[15:15] <reisio> ask #vlc about it
[15:15] <reisio> oh maybe they killed that channel, fools
[15:15] <reisio> #videolan in that case
[15:16] <NeonGen> it seems to be an issue with a codec both players share, when I play a h.264 video on youtube, both the flash and HTML5 player do fine
[15:16] <NeonGen> albeit stuttering like hell
[15:18] <NeonGen> also playing h.264 on the same box under windows, it plays fine regardless of the player
[15:18] <reisio> I'd still suspect the driver first
[15:18] <reisio> but <shrug>
[15:19] <NeonGen> hmm in that case I have a problem, it's a very old pentium 4 machine
[15:19] <NeonGen> with an even older VGA chip :P
[15:19] <cfhowlett> NeonGen, could be your GPU doesn't suppport h.264
[15:19] <reisio> ...
[15:20] <NeonGen> hmm might it help if find a way to force VLC to use software acceleration?
[15:21] <NeonGen> my main goal is to get 360p youtube video playback possible, I don't need HD quality h.264 playback
[15:22] <NeonGen> #videolan
[15:22] <NeonGen> ops
[15:23] <KatnissEverdeen> i need help!!
[15:23]  * reisio hands KatnissEverdeen a bow
[15:24] <cfhowlett> !help | KatnissEverdeen
[15:25] <KatnissEverdeen> well, i have an Dell Inspiron 8100 that is running xp right now.. I wont install Ubuntu.. What do i do?

[15:27] <HollyCowOS> :)
[15:28] <HollyCowOS> any questions?
[15:30] <Rory> HollyCowOS: Just idle and wait until someone asks a question you can help with
[15:32] <jsNifty> I have a problem with a Broadcom BCM4313 802.11bgn [14e4:4727] (rev 01) wireless network card.  It can see all wireless networks and can connect to my network but cannot connect to the Internet
[15:34] <AlexPortable> k1l_: ah thansk
[15:34] <AlexPortable> thanks*
[15:34] <Desu> jsNifty: can you ping your router?
[15:34] <Desu> jsNifty: can you ping 8.8.8.8?
[15:35] <jsNifty> Yes and I have also tried pinging dns and that worked
[15:35] <AlexPortable> k1l_: enabled 3d support, still not working
[15:36] <Desu> jsNifty: try 8.8.8.8 as your dns server
[15:36] <jsNifty> I have a dual boot system and I am connecting to the Internet now through Windows so do not have access to the Ubuntu system
[15:36] <Desu> asuming you get unresolved host errors
[15:36] <Desu> or is it timing out?
[15:36] <jsNifty> Yes
[15:36] <jsNifty> Unresolved Host Errors
[15:37] <Desu> then try 8.8.8.8 as the dns server
[15:37] <Desu> and nuke your dns cache if you have one
[15:37] <onla> jsNifty: you are not using elisa or saunalahti internet from finland, as they have nationwide problems at the moment?
[15:38] <onla> oh sry never mind
[15:38] <jsNifty> No I am in Ireland.  Desu what do you mean by nuke my dns cache
[15:38] <HollyCowOS> TRY 8.8.4.4
[15:38] <BluesKaj> jsNifty, om 14.10?
[15:38] <BluesKaj> on
[15:39] <jsNifty> Yes 14.10
[15:39] <Desu> jsNifty: if you don't know then you probably don't have a cache
[15:39] <jsNifty> ok
[15:39] <BluesKaj> jsNifty, in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf place a # in front of dns=dnsmasq
[15:39] <HollyCowOS> I made my router fowarding DNS for my lan how cool is that?
[15:39] <BluesKaj> it's a bug in 14.10 jsNifty
[15:41] <reisio> HollyCowOS: that is so cool
[15:41] <jsNifty> Thank you Desu and BluesKaj, I will try both solutions and let you know if problem fixed.
[15:46] <HollyCowOS> reisio: m/f?
[15:46] <reisio> HollyCowOS: awesome
[15:47] <HollyCowOS> perfect
[15:47] <HollyCowOS> so reisio are you male or female?
[15:48] <HollyCowOS> or something in between
[15:48] <cfhowlett> HollyCowOS, wrong channel, irrelevant and off-topic.  stop it.
[15:48] <cfhowlett> !guidelines | HollyCowOS
[15:48] <HollyCowOS> sexsist channel
[15:50] <k1l_> HollyCowOS: no. this channel is for solving technical ubuntu issues and not a dating channel. please stick to the guidelines to help user who come in here to solve their technical issues. thanks
[15:51] <HollyCowOS> but reisio got feeling for me
[15:51] <frowni> Hi there, i'm having screen tearing with my ATI card..what can i do :( ?
[15:51] <frowni> Also while watching movies etc..
[15:51] <bynarie> frowni, do u have v-sync turned on?
[15:51] <HollyCowOS> enable vsinc
[15:51] <frowni> hmm i don't know how to do that.
[15:51] <frowni> :)
[15:51] <frowni> let me check
[15:52] <bynarie> vertical sync is most likely the reason
[15:52] <k1l_> frowni: got the proper video driver enabled?
[15:52] <HollyCowOS> lol i started chating on debian thinking i was here and got muted
[15:52] <frowni> I'm using X.org.X server wrapper driver which seems recommended
[15:53] <bynarie> ok
[15:53] <frowni> xserver-xorg-video-ati thingy
[15:53] <k1l_> frowni: which video card is it? and which driver exactly?
[15:53] <bynarie> thats probably a good idea
[15:53] <frowni> It's a ATI 6950
[15:53] <k1l_> frowni: did you try the fglrx from ubuntu?
[15:54] <frowni> nope didn't try it..let me try
[15:54] <HollyCowOS> you need to enable vsinc to prevent tearing but you might get imput lag as side efect
[15:54] <bynarie> frowni, be careful... if you install wrong drivers you will have no video at all
[15:54] <frowni> There is fglrx and fglrx-updates
[15:54] <k1l_> frowni: fglrx
[15:54] <frowni> in Additional Drivers section
[15:54] <frowni> k trying now
[15:55] <bynarie> frowni!!!!
[15:55] <frowni> yo
[15:55] <bynarie> if it goes bad, do sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx*
[15:55] <kim__> is it possible to use openbox DE on ubuntu 14.04?
[15:55] <k1l_> kim__: yes
[15:55] <daftykins> !info openbox trusty
[15:56] <daftykins> our survey says - yes
[15:56] <frowni> bynarie, noted. thanx a lot
[15:56] <HollyCowOS> will there be in the near future an usb dedicated version of ubuntu?
[15:56] <nedal> Hi, I don t get the meaning and uses of alias even with an internet research, could someone help me in that ?
[15:56] <bynarie> sure
[15:56] <kim__> k1l_: hi k1l_, can you teach me how to do that? or direct me to a link that can teach me how to do that
[15:56] <frowni> here we go :P
[15:56] <bynarie> frowni, you will have to hit ctrl+alt f2
[15:56] <bynarie> to get to term
[15:57] <Desu> HollyCowOS: define "usb dedicated version"
[15:57] <frowni> bynarie, k. it's applying changes at the moment
[15:57] <bynarie> k
[15:57] <Desu> HollyCowOS:  you can write the live iso to a usb stick just fine already
[15:57] <bynarie> good luck!
[15:57] <HollyCowOS> isnt it self explanatory?
[15:57] <kim__> !info openbox trusty
[15:57] <k1l_> kim__: install the package, choose it at login screen, then modify as needed
[15:57] <kim__> daftykins: i was talking about the openbox DE, not the window manager
[15:57] <HollyCowOS> i mean an usb stick ubuntu version
[15:58] <bynarie> kim__, isnt that the same thing?
[15:58] <HollyCowOS> build exactlly just for that
[15:58] <k1l_> kim__: are you mixing with lxde?
[15:58] <bynarie> frowni, u still ther
[15:59] <daftykins> kim__: well, the presence of one is likely for the other
[15:59] <HollyCowOS> bynarie: hes there looking at a black screen
[15:59] <cyric_666> hi
[15:59] <bynarie> probably
[15:59] <HollyCowOS> hihih
[15:59] <nedal> Hi, I don t get the meaning and uses of alias even with an internet research, could someone help me in that ?
[15:59] <frowni> bynarie, yea
[15:59] <bynarie> ok good
[15:59] <frowni> bynarie, nothing happened :P maybe i have to restart x
[15:59] <kim__> daftykins: okay, i'll try
[15:59] <bynarie> just reboot or something
[15:59] <frowni> k
[15:59] <k1l_> frowni: yes relogin
[15:59] <bynarie> see if it helps your tearing
[16:00] <bynarie> or do a service restart
[16:00] <OerHeks> nedal, see http://www.howtogeek.com/73768/how-to-use-aliases-to-customize-ubuntu-commands/
[16:00] <HollyCowOS> how do you do service restart?
[16:01] <sney> I have a production 12.04 LTS server that is still displaying the HWE EOL message in the motd despite having the trusty kernel installed and running. how can I clear that?
[16:01] <bynarie> HollyCowOS, sudo service gdm restart
[16:01] <bynarie> or w/e the service is
[16:01] <HollyCowOS> they6 have services in ubuntu ? i tought they called that deamons
[16:01] <bynarie> lightdm
[16:02] <sney> hwe-support-status reports the HWE is supported until april 2017 so I'm sure I'm not still running the old one. but the warning stays and pollutes my screen every time I log in.
[16:02] <sney> HollyCowOS: 2 words, same basic meaning
[16:02] <dianne167> hello.  i have xubuntu 14.04, and i am using cairo dock.  i like to use google chrome, with application specific windows for my gmail and facebook, and google docs.  i used to be able to use them and they would show up like their own application on the dock, to be minimized and maximized or whatever, with their own app specific icon...  for some reason right now, they are all just showing up as chrome windows, even if there
[16:02] <dianne167>  is an app shortcut for gmail on the dock, when i clock the gmail icon it opens up with a separate chrome icon on the dock
[16:02] <dianne167> i do not know when this started happening, but can someone point me to what settings or whatever have an effect on this?
[16:03] <HollyCowOS> Windows have servicesTM
[16:03] <HollyCowOS> can you use the same word on linux?
[16:04] <bynarie> well it is a service.... you use the service command
[16:04] <sney> just because windows used a term doesn't mean microsoft has it copyrighted/trademarked
[16:04] <HollyCowOS> next thing theres going to be vhosts on linux too
[16:04] <bynarie> uh there is
[16:04] <sney> in apache, anyway
[16:05] <k1l_> !ot
[16:05] <HollyCowOS> i mean vhost.w32
[16:07] <sney> seems I can just set /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-hwe-eol -x and that stops the motd from updating itself. a little hacky but that's ok, I guess.
[16:08] <bynarie> frowni
[16:10] <bynarie> thanks to whoever gave that alias link... i never even knew of aliases
[16:10] <OerHeks> bynarie, have fun
[16:11] <lancelot_of> hi there
[16:12] <lancelot_of> apvlv is not in my "open with" options in nautilus, even if i try to "show other apps" it is not shown. How to add it as an optional application to read pdf ilfes?Please help
[16:12] <bynarie> =]
[16:12] <lancelot_of> oh sorry, ubuntu 14.04.1
[16:12] <LeartS> lancelot_of: I think only applications with a .desktop file get shown in "open with" menu
[16:13] <lancelot_of> LeartS, thanks, so what can I do to add apvlv a .desktop file?
[16:14] <sohail-ahmed>  I have connected my tablet with my system via usb but I could not see it neither in the browser nor in the /media. any help??
[16:15] <LeartS> lancelot_of: first, make sure it really doesn't have it. Do you see it in the dash (which also uses .desktop files)? If not you create it (it's just a text file) and put it in /usr/share/applications
[16:15] <Dulcin> Hi I have a PC with Ubuntu 13.04 but I was unable to update/upgrade, as I read because the product is EOL. I removed my sources.list in the process. I can't seem to recreate or find one online, can anyone tell me where I should look?
[16:15] <LeartS> you'll find plenty of examples in /usr/share/applications
[16:15] <LeartS> Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles
[16:16] <k1l_> Dulcin: you completly removed it?
[16:16] <Dulcin> k1l_: yeah
[16:17] <OerHeks> k1l_, http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ doesn't have it
[16:18] <OerHeks> !13.04
[16:18] <lancelot_of> LeartS, in /usr/share/applications there is already a apvlv.desktop file
[16:19] <OerHeks> Dulcin, on this page is an example, skip the bottom 2 (medibuntu and google)
[16:19] <bynarie> LeartS, download ubuntu-tweak
[16:19] <harushimo> question for everyone. I'm getting the current nvidia drivers from nvidia website.  Would I have any problems if I upgrade to the current drivers?
[16:19] <bynarie> it has a gui way to do it
[16:19] <OerHeks> !eolupgrade | Dulcin you would need this url too, to upgrade
[16:20] <harushimo> the version I'm running nvidia 304.123 but on the nvidia website is 304.42
[16:20] <bynarie> harushimo, i always use nvida drivers, but i make sure to set "nomodeset" on kernel options.. never had a problem
[16:20] <Dulcin> OerHeks: Thanks, I'll check it out
[16:20] <harushimo> how do you make sure nomodset is on the kernel?
[16:20] <k1l_> Dulcin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9251968/
[16:20] <harushimo> I got nvidia drivers from apt-get but not the current one
[16:21] <bynarie> harushimo, sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[16:21] <k1l_> harushimo: stop please get the infos sorted. is your driver from the website or from ubuntu?
[16:21] <bynarie> do thaty
[16:22] <harushimo> I'm using the current driver that ubuntu gave me
[16:22] <stoogenmeyer> Hi can anyone PLEASE help.. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.10 on a new laptop with W8 preinstalled. I don't want dual boot, and I don't care about UEFI, legacy will do splendid. But whatever I try, I can't get the live usb to boot
[16:22] <Dulcin> k1l_: thanks
[16:22] <nedal> Hi, if I modify  a soft link file, does the original undergo the same modifications ? and what about a hard link ?
[16:22] <bynarie> harushimo, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"
[16:22] <k1l_> harushimo: so you want to upgrade now because the nvidia sites driver is newer?
[16:22] <harushimo> I am upgrading to the current minor version
[16:22] <harushimo> yes
[16:22] <k1l_> harushimo: you are aware that this gives you trouble?
[16:22] <harushimo> that is why I'm asking
[16:22] <k1l_> harushimo: like having to reinstall after every kernel uprade etc?
[16:22] <harushimo> what is the trouble?
[16:23] <bynarie> harushimo, do NOT use the nvidia website driver
[16:23] <k1l_> i recommend you use the ubuntu driver.
[16:23] <harushimo> done
[16:23] <bynarie> i use the one from apt
[16:23] <harushimo> I'm not using the nvidia one
[16:23] <bynarie> ok
[16:24] <bynarie> harushimo, if you have added proper repos, sudo apt-get install nvidia-346
[16:24] <harushimo> another question, I want to do an upgrade 14.04 LTS but its say I may get slower performance due to my graphics card
[16:24] <harushimo> I have 304.123
[16:24] <k1l_> harushimo: what ubunut are you on?
[16:24] <harushimo> 12.04 LTS
[16:24] <k1l_> who says its getting slower?
[16:24] <bynarie> yea.. that doesnt make sense
[16:25] <harushimo> I got a message when I was doing the upgrade
[16:25] <bynarie> yea.. that doesnt make sense
[16:25] <bynarie> sorry typo
[16:25] <bynarie> harushimo, what card u got?
[16:26] <harushimo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9252040/
[16:26] <harushimo> this is the exact error
[16:26] <harushimo> message
[16:26] <LeartS> lancelot_of: according to this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/317392/how-to-add-a-custom-program-to-open-with-list-of-programs-in-xubuntu-13-04-ho the exec line of the .desktop file needs a %U
[16:26] <harushimo> nvidia geforce GTX 660 ti
[16:27] <k1l_> harushimo: you use the unity2d ?
[16:27] <harushimo> yeah
[16:27] <stoogenmeyer>  Hi can anyone PLEASE help.. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.10 on a new laptop with W8 preinstalled. I don't want dual boot, and I don't care about UEFI, legacy will do splendid. But whatever I try, I can't get the live usb to boot
[16:27] <harushimo> i think so
[16:27] <harushimo> yeah I use unity2d
[16:27] <bynarie> stoogenmeyer, i had same problem..... what video card do you have?
[16:27] <k1l_> harushimo: that is deprecated now. so that messages thinks you run unity2d because your videocard cant do 3d.
[16:27] <k1l_> harushimo: just ignore that
[16:28] <stoogenmeyer> bynarie: um how does it relate to a graphics card?
[16:28] <stoogenmeyer> i dont know actually
[16:28] <bynarie> it does
[16:28] <harushimo> I don't understand that either
[16:28] <bynarie> uefi doesnt matter
[16:28] <harushimo> how does that related to the graphics card
[16:28] <harushimo> are newer graphics card coming with 3d accelerations?
[16:28] <k1l_> harushimo: unity2d was just a fallback desktop for people having a video card not able to run 3d.
[16:28] <bynarie> i installed ubuntu on my w8 preinstalled laptop
[16:29] <bynarie> turns out it was the video card causing the usb not to boot
[16:29] <harushimo> ok
[16:29] <LeartS> lancelot_of: I did opened /usr/share/applications/apvlv.desktop, added ' %f' to the exec line, launched sudo update-desktop-database and it worked
[16:29] <harushimo> if I do an upgrade, I really shouldn't see any performance difference
[16:29] <stoogenmeyer> bynarie: wow i would not expect that (-:
[16:29] <k1l_> harushimo: not the 3d like you see in the cinema. but the 3d like "better grafic on a pc monitor". like the 3d cube desktop etc
[16:29] <LeartS> let me know if it does for you too
[16:29] <bynarie> its true
[16:29] <k1l_> harushimo: no, ignore that error
[16:29] <harushimo> thank you
[16:29] <harushimo> I'll do the upgrade now
[16:30] <bynarie> stoogenmeyer, make sure you have secureboot disabled and if u are running an nvidia card, set kernel options to nomodeset
[16:30] <HollyCowOS> how can i get my windowsxp vm to run on vmware?
[16:30] <lancelot_of> LeartS, i copied that file in my .local/share/applications/, added %U at the end of Exec line and it worked
[16:30] <lancelot_of> LeartS, thank you very much
[16:30] <bynarie> and just so you know, with uefi crap, every computer is different
[16:30] <stoogenmeyer> bynarie: would you believe me if i said that to get it to boot i had to use a different usb port?
[16:30] <bynarie> there really is no standard way to install
[16:30] <stoogenmeyer> bynarie: brand new computer..
[16:30] <HollyCowOS> it need something to do with slick to run some bios "hack"?
[16:30] <modafinil> I know systemd is coming as a default init in 15.04, but will it remain an option to use upstart(or whatever) instead relatively simply (I don't care about gnome if that changes the answer)?
[16:30] <lancelot_of> thanks all for your support
[16:30] <lancelot_of> bye
[16:30] <harushimo> I started the upgrade
[16:30] <harushimo> I'll be  back on later
[16:31] <bynarie> maybe going from a 3.0 to usb 2.0
[16:31] <bynarie> just try disabling secure boot
[16:31] <bynarie> set kernel to nomodeset
[16:31] <LeartS> lancelot_of: I think you didn't have to copy it to .local/share/applications that's the per-user equivalent of /usr/share/applications
[16:31] <bynarie> i have a brand new laptop that had w8 preinstalled
[16:31] <k1l_> HollyCowOS: ask the windows support: ##windows
[16:31] <bynarie> got ubuntu on it after days of guess/check
[16:31] <HollyCowOS> i got banned there by mota
[16:32] <HollyCowOS> cauyse i used the f word
[16:32] <k1l_> HollyCowOS: if you dont want to be banned here too start sticking to the guidelines asap
[16:32] <bynarie> lol
[16:32] <bynarie> u got banned for cussing thats lame
[16:32] <HollyCowOS> thats your opinion
[16:32] <k1l_> !guidelines
[16:33] <HollyCowOS> the lamest people are the ones that dont cuss
[16:33] <stoogenmeyer> bynarie: well its installing now.. got rid of w8
[16:34] <bynarie> ok
[16:34] <bynarie> so its working for now?
[16:34] <bynarie> thats goo
[16:34] <bynarie> good*
[16:34] <stoogenmeyer> bynarie: yea thanks anyway though
[16:34] <bynarie> sure
[16:34] <bynarie> good luck
[16:44] <john> hi
[16:44] <qqlapraline> salut!
[16:45] <bynarie> hello
[16:45] <qqlapraline> c'est ma premiere fois sur IRC ^
[16:45] <qqlapraline> ^^*
[16:45] <OerHeks> !english
[16:46] <qqlapraline> okay I tought it was a french canal ^^
[16:46] <LeartS> qqlapraline: there is #ubuntu-fr
[16:46] <qqlapraline> I was saying that it was my first time on IRC
[16:47] <qqlapraline> Oh I don't really mind
[16:47] <qqlapraline> I can speak english!!
[16:47] <mindless_chaos> is the eric from last night in the room
[16:47] <LeartS> I guess ubuntu sounds a little like french
[16:47] <mindless_chaos> I figured out the issue with the postfix install and it is funny
[16:47] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: ?
[16:47] <EriC^^> heya
[16:48] <mindless_chaos> okay so it was running a command called adduser as part of the installation right?
[16:48] <mindless_chaos> I forgot I wrote a script called adduser and put it in my /usr/local/bin
[16:48] <peska> Hello guys
[16:48] <mindless_chaos>  to simplify adding users
[16:48] <EriC^^> haha
[16:48] <qqlapraline> I only have ubuntu since Sunday, so I don't really know how it does waork :/
[16:48] <mindless_chaos> so every time it tried to run it's adduser, mine hijacked it
[16:48] <mindless_chaos> lol
[16:48] <LeartS> mindless_chaos: wow, that was a bad idea! exactly for this reason :D
[16:49] <EriC^^> hehe :D
[16:49] <mindless_chaos> i was too tired last night i couldnt think
[16:49] <mindless_chaos> this morning, i turn it on and u duh, immediatly I realized
[16:50] <qqlapraline> Everyone says that ubuntu is a good thing to learn C langage, but where do we use it?
[16:50] <mindless_chaos> after smacking my self in the forehead I renamed it and SWOOSH, install fine
[16:50] <peska> I had 12.04 installed on my Computer with Nvidia GPU, I took the HDD and put it in another laptop with Intel integrated Graphic card. Now the issue is that when i run a youtube video in Google Chrome the screen simply goes black and I can't do anything else but turn off the laptop. The computer isn't hanged as I can hear the background sound
[16:50] <mindless_chaos> However I did do a purge before so it was clean from the sttart
[16:50] <EriC^^> cool
[16:50] <MACscr-lappy> how do i verify my nic has vlan support?
[16:50] <peska> What is going on here?
[16:51] <peska> any ideas?
[16:52] <mindless_chaos> So now the only thing I have is a bunch of errors on boot after I updated
[16:52] <mindless_chaos> HOWEVER... it may have something to do with my adduser script....
[16:52] <k1l_> peska: remove all nvidia packages?
[16:52]  * mindless_chaos smacks forehead again
[16:52] <k1l_> peska: sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
[16:52] <EriC^^> hehe
[16:52] <mindless_chaos> I have to get food, brb
[16:53] <peska> k1l_, ok and then install the integrated graphics packages?
[16:53]  * mindless_chaos is AFK
[16:53] <k1l_> peska: they work with the kernel. no need to install drivers
[16:53] <qqlapraline> Does someone can help me?
[16:53] <RustyShackleford> so I updated yesterday, the only update available was for ubuntu-base. Now I can't log in
[16:54] <RustyShackleford> this is 14.04
[16:54] <k1l_> RustyShackleford: cant login means?
[16:54] <RustyShackleford> login menu shows up. I type in my password, login box disappears
[16:54] <RustyShackleford> I'm left staring at the purple background of the login screen
[16:54] <k1l_> RustyShackleford: other user or guest account works?
[16:55] <RustyShackleford> no idea, I guess I could try
[16:55] <RustyShackleford> is the guest account set up automatically?
[16:55] <k1l_> not sure actually
[16:56] <Eyob> hi
[16:57] <RustyShackleford> well i'll try the guest account
[16:57] <RustyShackleford> if that doesn't work, I'm stumped
[16:57] <Eyob> ??
[16:57] <RustyShackleford> i'm a little bummed this happened to me with an LTS release
[16:57] <Eyob> מםמ ים בשפןאם
[17:03] <RustyShackleford> I can't make it past the login screen with the guest account either
[17:04] <RustyShackleford> I'm finding similar issues on google from several months ago
[17:05] <k1l_> RustyShackleford: what video driver is installed?
[17:05] <RustyShackleford> but this seems to be related to the update I installed yesterday
[17:05] <RustyShackleford> k1l_: fgrlx
[17:05] <k1l_> from ubuntu or from amd website?
[17:05] <k1l_> (or some ppa)
[17:06] <RustyShackleford> k1l_: ubuntu's repos
[17:06] <LeartS> k1l_: where did you read he updated the video driver?
[17:06] <RustyShackleford> pretty sure I chose the stable driver
[17:06] <LeartS> RustyShackleford: what packages got updated yesterday?
[17:07] <k1l_> ok. something encrypted? like /home?
[17:07] <hazrpg> anyone setup a localhost mailbox before? I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get a mail client to read them (although maybe I configured it wrong?) could someone help?
[17:07] <k1l_> LeartS: just checking typical issues
[17:08] <RustyShackleford> LeartS: I updated using their gui tool that alerts you. It said ubuntu-base was being updated
[17:08] <RustyShackleford> google suggests my unity settings are fudged up
[17:09] <k1l_> RustyShackleford: does .Xauthority belong to user:user? or root:root?
[17:09] <LeartS> RustyShackleford: ubuntu base it's a "category" you should have a little triangle next to it and if you click on it you'll see the single packages getting updated
[17:10] <LeartS> the same foes for security
[17:10] <LeartS> *goes
[17:10] <RustyShackleford> k1l_: which si correct? I'll have to reboot to check
[17:10] <N3sh108> hello! I have a question concerning using a USB stick with persistence for a small home server. How much would my USB pen wear off?
[17:11] <N3sh108> Is it a bad idea to do such a thing?
[17:12] <reisio> N3sh108: like any hardware, it will work just fine all the way up to the point when it doesn't
[17:12] <usr13> N3sh108: It goes by number of read/writes and it's in the 10s of thousands.  They last a pretty long time.
[17:12] <reisio> given that the average USB stick is a $10 investment, I wouldn't contemplate on it too long
[17:12] <k1l_> RustyShackleford: user:user (where user is your actuall user name)
[17:12] <N3sh108> I see
[17:13] <N3sh108> so, my idea of reviving my old laptop (which has no HD) and turn it into a small home server connected to a NAS, is not a dumb idea; right?
[17:13] <arkjj> hey guys. it seems my dns (or something) on a server i am playing with is somehow set up to try to append .com to all unresolved domains
[17:13] <arkjj> any idea where to change something / look for something?
[17:14] <usr13> arkjj: What nameserver are you using now?
[17:14] <arkjj> i have set up google public dns as dns server btw
[17:14] <usr13> 8.8.8.8?
[17:14] <arkjj> yes, and 8.8.4.4
[17:14] <LeartS> obviously it's thousand of writes *per block*, not in general, or it would last 10 minutes
[17:14] <usr13> arkjj: cat /etc/hosts  #See if you see anything odd there.
[17:15] <N3sh108> LeartS: yeah, of course :P
[17:15] <usr13> arkjj: Wait.  How are you apending .com to everything.  (Namservers don't do that.)
[17:15] <N3sh108> Thanks, then! Let's see how it will work :D  -> reisio, usr13
[17:15] <LeartS> so, generally, the larger the USB stick the longer its life cycle
[17:16] <usr13> LeartS: Not so sure about that....
[17:16] <arkjj> usr13: it's happing like this: if i f.example `ping abc` i see this: PING abc.com (199.181.132.250) 56(84) bytes of data.
[17:16] <arkjj> usr13: also, if i `curl abc -I` then I see curl also thinks this is abc.com
[17:16] <usr13> arkjj: host example.com
[17:16] <usr13> arkjj: Like   host av.com
[17:17] <LeartS> usr13: why not? assuming a good controller that spreads the writes kinda uniformely
[17:17] <peska> k1l_, I purged Nvidia packages but still the screen crashes. BTW I don't have the same problem on Firefox
[17:17] <arkjj> `host abc` gives Host abc not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
[17:17] <arkjj> usr13: and `host abc.com` gives me a host
[17:17] <usr13> arkjj: Try av.com
[17:18] <usr13> Oh ok
[17:18] <usr13> arkjj: Some servers do not return pings.
[17:18] <LeartS> usr13: i'm no expert btw, just stuff I've read here and there. e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear_leveling
[17:18] <usr13> arkjj: (They block ping requests.)
[17:18] <arkjj> http://pastebin.com/dmpcw6fx
[17:19] <arkjj> usr13: but the i can also do this: http://pastebin.com/xzXkr89M
[17:21] <arkjj> usr13: ...and this: http://pastebin.com/Es4ZwkiN
[17:22] <arkjj> which is the strangest of them if you ask me
[17:23] <usr13> USB Thumb Drive Lonevity, (read Longevity section at):
[17:23] <usr13> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_flash_drive
[17:23] <reisio> they're really not worth the time spent reading about them
[17:24] <usr13> reisio: Thumb drives are very important to me.  I have a number of things a back-up to thumb drives.
[17:25] <reisio> if you spend an hour reading about them, you have wasted the time it takes to earn the cost of replacing one entirely
[17:25] <reisio> just keep it in perspective
[17:25] <usr13> I remember how to do this now:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_flash_drive#Longevity
[17:26] <usr13> reisio: It is a paragraph of 3 sentences, (takes about 10 seconds to read).
[17:26] <reisio> you linked to something that takes three seconds to read? :p
[17:26] <usr13> reisio: Yes
[17:27] <usr13> well about 10 seconds...
[17:28] <reisio> uhuh
[17:31] <timvisher> what's the apt package (or whatever that actually needs to be) to install the bash info manuals on 14.04?
[17:32] <maletor> If I have a GPT with 2 partitions and I remove the first one and expand the second one into it's space, will I lose all data?
[17:32] <reisio> timvisher: as in 'info bash'?
[17:32] <usr13> arkjj: Do you think you may have a nameserver problem?
[17:32] <reisio> timvisher: ask apt-file about 'bash.info'
[17:32] <usr13> arkjj: pastebinit /etc/resolv.conf  #Send URL, well will look and see.
[17:33] <usr13> arkjj: It is usually best to use the nameserver suggested by your ISP.
[17:33] <arkjj> usr13: http://pastebin.com/uwjehuBq
[17:34] <arkjj> usr13: well, this is a cheap vps on digital ocean
[17:34] <usr13> arkjj: Set your router to your ISPs nameserver and have your PCs use your router's caching nameserver.
[17:34] <timvisher> reisio: ooo. what's apt-file? :)
[17:35]  * mindless_chaos is back
[17:35] <arkjj> usr13: hm, well i dont really control the router on digital ocean :p
[17:36] <reisio> timvisher: something you will apprecaite
[17:36] <reisio> and also appreciate
[17:37] <reisio> IIRC: sudo apt-get install apt-file; apt-file
[17:37] <reisio> and it'll tell you how to make it work
[17:38] <usr13> arkjj: Well, it is probably set to the nearest/fastest nameserver, and it probably has a caching nameserver you can use.  So try setting your PC's to use it's IP address as nameserver
[17:38] <timvisher> reisio: yep. i'm on it. :)
[17:38] <reisio> then it's something like apt-file search bash.info
[17:38] <usr13> arkjj: But as long as the primary one does not fail, there will be very little difference.
[17:38] <timvisher> now that is neat :)
[17:39] <usr13> arkjj: For instance, when I ping 8.8.4.4 from here I get ping times in the low 40's (ms).  When I ping 8.8.8.8, I get mid 40's (Not much difference
[17:39] <reisio> timvisher: :)
[17:43] <kyle_Austin> Anyone know how to display a multiple page PDF in html?
[17:44] <kyle_Austin> Anytime I embed or use iframe it shows one page but is scrollable...
[17:44] <reisio> kyle_Austin: how do you mean?
[17:44] <kyle_Austin> I am trying to display the full 5 page pdf for printing
[17:45] <kyle_Austin> it only displays first page and is scrollable.  So when I print it only shows first page and not remaining 4 pages...
[17:45] <kyle_Austin> Reisio, do you have experience with this??
[17:45] <reisio> kyle_Austin: how're you printing it?
[17:45] <sacarlson> kyle_Austin: I think we have pdf viewers that must print dont we?
[17:45] <Mralexxx> Guys help pleasr
[17:46] <kyle_Austin> Well I am mixing html code with iframes that display the pdf
[17:46] <mindless_chaos> ?
[17:46] <kyle_Austin> the iframes don't show full document...
[17:46] <reisio> kyle_Austin: you'll need to print from the PDF viewer's print feature
[17:46] <reisio> not the browser's
[17:46] <Mralexxx> I installed ubuntu using wubi and now i am stuck on grub rescue mode
[17:46] <usr13> kyle_Austin: How are you accessing the pdf file?
[17:46] <kyle_Austin> There is no way to print a full pdf along with some html?
[17:47] <usr13> kyle_Austin: xpdf?  acroread? firefox?
[17:47] <kyle_Austin> browser
[17:47] <mindless_chaos> okay... guess he has more problems then just that lol
[17:47] <usr13> kyle_Austin: pdf documents and html documents are two different things.
[17:47] <bumbar_> i've connected phone to pc, how can i view files on phone?
[17:47] <usr13> kyle_Austin: Open the document with an on-board pdf viewer
[17:48] <Mralexxx> Yeah to rescue.. it says error unknown filesystem
[17:48] <Mralexxx> Can i fix it somehow
[17:48] <usr13> kyle_Austin: (Printing from a browser is hit and miss)
[17:48] <kyle_Austin> usr13: You think this is not going to work?
[17:49] <Mralexxx> I tried put windows 7 disc and try repair but it says wrong version
[17:49] <usr13> kyle_Austin: Why not?
[17:49] <reisio> kyle_Austin: print one, and print the other
[17:49] <kyle_Austin> I have tried making pdf an object, using iframe, embedding...  Nothing seems to work.
[17:49] <mindless_chaos> are you trying to fix ubuntu or windows?
[17:49] <usr13> kyle_Austin: You have made the pdf document yourself?
[17:49] <usr13> kyle_Austin: Not sure what you are saying.
[17:49] <Mralexxx> Cannot access any of them
[17:50] <kyle_Austin> I am building an application that requires a 'print option' that includes a ton of information, some of the info is being displayed in html while many pdf documents need to be included.
[17:50] <usr13> kyle_Austin: Can you send me the pdf file?
[17:50] <user3> hi guys, is there a sollution to save a whole website as an archive. This whole website should behave as a website when opened. I'm a former apple-thingy user where this was possible to save a website as .webarchive file.
[17:50] <reisio> user3: httrack
[17:50] <mindless_chaos> do it a few times.
[17:50] <kyle_Austin> usr13: any multi page pdf would work.
[17:50] <theadmin> user3: Use httrack, yup
[17:50] <usr13> kyle_Austin: Ok, well pdf documents are images.
[17:50] <mindless_chaos> That will restore windows master boot record
[17:50] <reisio> usr13: -%M
[17:50] <theadmin> user3: It will not create a single file, but many files, you should still be able to browse it offline though
[17:50] <Mralexxx> How to boot to cmd ?
[17:50] <kyle_Austin> usr13: is there a way to display the WHOLE image and not just the first page.
[17:51] <theadmin> user3: Using any browser, infact
[17:51] <reisio> theadmin: it can, with -%M
[17:51] <reisio> not that it matters
[17:51] <usr13> reisio: What?
[17:51] <reisio> a directory is just as good as a file :)
[17:51] <reisio> usr13: httrack with -%M option
[17:51] <user3> theadmin: reisio: thank you guys
[17:51] <theadmin> reisio: Does that create an mht file then?
[17:51] <sacarlson> kyle_Austin: many of my documents I just post in google drive are auto converted to view as an option
[17:51] <reisio> theadmin: yeah
[17:51] <Mralexxx> Win 7
[17:51] <user3> sudo aptitude install httrack
[17:51] <reisio> user3: probably
[17:51] <theadmin> reisio: Funny, because I have no idea how to open those on Linux, heh
[17:51] <mindless_chaos> if you have a floppy drive you can always download a windows 98 boot disk from bootdisk.com and make light work of it
[17:51] <mindless_chaos> Okay hold on... I have to remember..
[17:52] <user3> reisio: wrong window :P
[17:52] <reisio> theadmin: mmmmmmm, I know there's an extension for all the browsers
[17:52] <reisio> 'mozilla archive format' is one, IIRC
[17:52] <reisio> it's probably just a ZIP of a dir, though
[17:52] <usr13> kyle_Austin: You would need to convert the mulit-page document into a single image.  You can do that with gimp.  And it would probably be best to just export to jpg
[17:52] <reisio> I would just use httrack as normal and have a dir
[17:52] <kyle_Austin> usr13: thank you I will try that
[17:52] <Mralexxx> Dont mind me my phone loses wifi every few min...
[17:52] <reisio> but you could tar it up and use archivemount to read it as a file
[17:53] <usr13> reisio: Sorry, I don't know about httrack
[17:54] <usr13> reisio: Oh, httrack.com  I see.  Thank you.
[17:54] <Mralexxx> I tried but wont work
[17:54] <Mralexxx> Says my windows is different version
[17:54] <mindless_chaos> instead of letting windows fix it, go into console
[17:54] <reisio> usr13: no no, use apt-get or aptitude
[17:55] <reisio> httrack is in the 'universe' repo
[17:55] <Mralexxx> Ok ill try
[17:55] <theadmin> Is the GUI version still broken?
[17:55] <reisio> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[17:55] <reisio> few times I've used it it's worked fine
[17:55] <reisio> as a GUI, though, vastly inferior :p
[17:55] <reisio> some decent web browser extensions for it, too
[17:55] <reisio> spiderzilla, etc.
[17:56] <Mralexxx> I dont have password
[17:56] <mindless_chaos> then once you are in, run fdisk /mbr which will restore the windows master boot record
[17:57] <AndChat|13169> It wont delete any of my data ?
[18:00] <EriC^^> mindless_chaos: are you sure?
[18:00] <Mralexxx> No command with name fdisk
[18:01] <EriC^^> run a live ubuntu usb and run fdisk /mbr ?
[18:01] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  type   which fdisk
[18:02] <Mralexxx> Doesnt work
[18:02] <Mralexxx> Can i repair it from ubuntu ?
[18:02] <n5667> buona sera
[18:02] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[18:02] <EriC^^> Mralexxx: i've never heard of repairing the windows boot loader from ubuntu!
[18:02] <Mralexxx> I have dvd wih burned ubuntu so could use live
[18:02] <EriC^^> Mralexxx: there's bootrec /fixmbr and stuff
[18:02] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  are you not in ubuntu right now?
[18:03] <EriC^^> ( from a windows command prompt )
[18:03] <Mralexxx> No
[18:03] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  then why are you here?
[18:03] <afflicto> Hello, my mom is running ubuntu 13.04 and she complains that when she wants to upload pictures on facebook. She can't see the pictures as thumbnails, only as a list. Is there a way to change this?
[18:03] <Mralexxx> Bootrec fix mbr worked
[18:03] <Mralexxx> Successfully completed operation
[18:03] <mindless_chaos> good
[18:04] <MonkeyDust> afflicto  first upgrade to a supported release, then ask again
[18:04] <EriC^^> Mralexxx: are you in a windows command prompt?
[18:04] <Mralexxx> Was in
[18:05] <haydukk> hello, if I'm currently running a live cd is there any way I can take out the cd and burn a new one without the OS crashing
[18:05] <Mralexxx> That doest work in cmd
[18:05] <MonkeyDust> haydukk  no,but you can boot from a live usb stick and burn the cd from there
[18:05] <mindless_chaos> fdisk? doesn't work???
[18:06] <EriC^^> Mralexxx: cmd is windows
[18:06] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  are you in windows now?
[18:06] <Mralexxx> Bootrec /fixmbr worked
[18:06] <mindless_chaos> oh, thats right, windows 7
[18:06] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  better ask in ##windows how windows works
[18:06] <haydukk> MonkeyDust: yeah I thought of that but I don't have any usb sticks right now. I thought I could maybe copy the os somewhere or something ? my pc is busted right now and live dvds are my only option
[18:06] <mindless_chaos> lol @ monkeydust
[18:06] <Mralexxx> But problem is in ubuntu not windows
[18:07] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  you say that you are in windows
[18:07] <mindless_chaos> clean install ubuntu from ubuntu cd
[18:07] <Mralexxx> Ok
[18:07] <EriC^^> Mralexxx: what exactly is your problem?
[18:07] <mindless_chaos> he is trying to get ubuntu working, and he could not get into anything but rescue in ubuntu
[18:08] <mindless_chaos> so we got him back into windows, because the grub as ill
[18:08] <mindless_chaos> so now he needs to clean install ubuntu
[18:08] <daftykins> not reinstall GRUB? :P
[18:08] <mindless_chaos> I forget what he said he used to installl
[18:08] <EriC^^> or use a different kernel?
[18:08] <daftykins> please don't say WUBI... anything but WUBI...
[18:08] <EriC^^> lol
[18:08] <EriC^^> *drum roll*
[18:08] <mindless_chaos> my feeling is.. he needs to just clean installl
[18:08] <Mralexxx> Yap wubi
[18:09] <daftykins> oh my...
[18:09]  * daftykins hides behind EriC^^ 
[18:09] <EriC^^> *dum* *dum* *dum*...
[18:09] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  wubi is the worst invention since the atomic bomb
[18:09] <daftykins> friends don't let friends WUBI.
[18:09] <mindless_chaos> hahahahaha
[18:09] <Mralexxx> xD
[18:09] <EriC^^> lol
[18:09] <MonkeyDust> Mralexxx  wubi means "will ultimatley be inefficient"
[18:09] <mindless_chaos> just download from ubuntu and insall
[18:09] <mindless_chaos> HAHAHAHAHA
[18:10] <squinty> .....mama don't allow no wubi'ing around here
[18:11] <mindless_chaos> ubuntu
[18:11] <Mralexxx> Is it realy that big shiet ?
[18:11] <mindless_chaos> ubuntu's native install console is so easy... Why would you even try to install through windows
[18:12] <Mralexxx> Cuz i cannot add windows to grub
[18:12] <mindless_chaos> ubuntu will automatically add windows to grub
[18:12] <Mralexxx> :O
[18:12] <solsTiCe> Mralexxx: try virtualbox
[18:12] <daftykins> Mralexxx: yeah, it's like the plague. do you have any data on your WUBI install that you want to keep?
[18:13] <Mralexxx> I didnt even got on that wubi install just want to keep data on windows
[18:14] <mindless_chaos> I just understand, why you would even mess with wubi, ubuntu installer is cake. it is intuitive.
[18:14] <Mralexxx> Didnt know it will add my windowd to grub loader
[18:14] <mindless_chaos> it adds any os installled to it's grub
[18:15] <mindless_chaos> so if you had windows, linux mint, and what the hell, msdos 6.22 installed, when you installed ubuntu it would add options for alll of them along with ubuntu
[18:15] <Mralexxx> Wow
[18:16] <Mralexxx> I used manjaro before and it is pain to add windows ppl couldnt help
[18:16] <mindless_chaos> hell you can run ubuntu off the cd without installing
[18:16] <zteam_> Hi guys!
[18:16] <mindless_chaos> you got windows back correct?
[18:17] <mindless_chaos> if so, download ubuntu from the site
[18:17] <mindless_chaos> either burn it on disk or install it to usb drive.
[18:17] <Mralexxx> Why would i when i have burned
[18:17] <mindless_chaos> then boot from disk or usb

[18:35] <dm7freek> reisio: "usermod: user <username> does not exist in /etc/passwd"   <---must be an LDAP thing huh?
[18:35] <mindless_chaos> xchat is pretty simple gui
[18:36] <reisio> dm7freek: much more useful error :)
[18:36] <mindless_chaos> i like irssi for terminal

[18:37] <mindless_chaos> im using xchat atm however
[18:37] <sigmabeta> hi everyone. nautilus won't show me thumbnails for gifs. fresh install of 14.10. ~/.cache/thumbnails/fail/gnome-thumbnail-factory contains an entry for every gif I see in nautilus (confirmable if I clear the folder and refresh a folder containing a single gif)
[18:37] <sigmabeta> any thoughts on how i can fix this? even just a place to pass some sort of verbosity parameter
[18:37] <mindless_chaos> I would suggest installing catalyst from AMD if you feel ambitious.
[18:38] <Mralexxx> Ok but i dont see irssi anywhere
[18:38] <mindless_chaos> lol
[18:38] <rwp> dm7freek, Also the new shell must exist in /etc/shells too.
[18:38] <mindless_chaos> open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install irssi
[18:38] <Mralexxx> Yeah i installed
[18:38] <mindless_chaos> its a terminal based irc
[18:38] <mindless_chaos> open term and type irssi
[18:39] <Mralexxx> Oh xD
[18:39] <mindless_chaos> then connect irc.freenode.net
[18:39] <mindless_chaos> join #ubuntu

[18:45] <mindless_chaos> I started with AIX Unix back in 01
[18:45] <mindless_chaos> linux shortly after
[18:45] <timvisher> what could cause `sort -R` to not work? as in i have a file that looks like this: https://gist.github.com/timvisher/0fa994db5c325bf28834 and while sort -R seems to work on any other content, this file is never randomized.
[18:45] <MrAlex> amirlo4 i guess so if you are having problems with ubuntu
[18:46] <mindless_chaos> just for fun is another good read
[18:46] <MrAlex> how i can scroll in this console ?

[18:47] <qwerkus> hello. Could someone help me debug my desktop ? Ubuntu 14.10 with latest nvidia bin. Everything starts fine, but I don't have any panel/sidepanel. Desktop background visible though. How can I reconfigure unity ?
[18:47] <mindless_chaos> ctrl +a
[18:47] <mindless_chaos> goes into scroll mode
[18:49] <mindless_chaos> but ignore the wget part because the link is old
[18:49] <MrAlex> ok so i just follow this without wget ?
[18:49] <mindless_chaos> Oh, and when you stop lightdm you will loose gui
[18:49] <MrAlex> and download using this link down ?
[18:49] <mindless_chaos> so make sure you have it writen down or something
[18:50] <mindless_chaos> no go to ati and download it from linux direct
[18:50] <mindless_chaos> then you can unzip it with the instructions
[18:50] <mindless_chaos> on that page
[18:50] <MrAlex> kk
[18:50] <MrAlex> unzip realy ? that easy wow
[18:50] <mindless_chaos> once you are in the install, try to let it configure it for ubuntu, if it can't just install the straight up driver
[18:50] <amirlo4> I'm using ubuntu 14. the  /boot filled up in my laptop so I deleted some stuff from there according to a stackoverflow post (I don't have the url, but maybe I can find it). After deleting using 'apt-get purge -y' all kind of stuff from the //boot I realized that many other software been deleted. I didn't reboot my laptop since than, because I'm afraid I deleted the boot it self. How can I know it before rebooting the laptop? I used Boot-Repair to get this inf
[18:50] <amirlo4> o: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9249228/
[18:51] <MrAlex> mindless_chaos how do i scroll in irssi ?
[18:51] <mindless_chaos> either ctrl a
[18:51] <mindless_chaos> or fn + shift and arrow keys
[18:53] <mindless_chaos> if those dont work page up or down
[18:53] <MrAlex> not working
[18:53] <mindless_chaos> page up or down?
[18:53] <MrAlex> oh yea
[18:54] <MrAlex> thanks
[18:54] <MrAlex> huh i think i am using pretty old ubuntu
[18:54] <mindless_chaos> 14?
[18:54] <MrAlex> hmm yea
[18:55] <mindless_chaos> thats new
[18:55] <MrAlex> i tought its older
[18:55] <mindless_chaos> 14.10 is latest i believe
[18:55] <MrAlex> but i downloaded newer
[18:55] <MrAlex> 14.2
[18:55] <MrAlex> i gues
[18:55] <BluesKaj> nope
[18:56] <MrAlex> what is monitor color profile ?
[18:56] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: version numbers are last two digits of year followed by the number for the month and come out every 6 months
[18:56] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: 14.04 is 2014 april
[18:56] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: 14.10 is 2014 october
[18:56] <MrAlex> ah then it is 14.04
[18:57] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: to be sure you can run, lsb_release -a, in a terminal
[18:58] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: it'll give you the full version info, believe monitor color profiles just allow you to adjust the values that are sent to the monitor to adjust for the monitors not being perfect
[18:58] <MrAlex> 14.04.1 LTS
[18:58] <mindless_chaos> http://thelunacafe.com/wp-content/uploads/Chapter_2_The_Basics_.pdf
[18:58] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: basically to get your blacks looking really black or reds looking the right hue etc. haven't really messed with it though myself (I do development but not a designer, this is more important for them)
[18:58] <mindless_chaos> downlaod that book and read it
[18:59] <MrAlex> mindless_chaos i unpacked it so i run .run now ?
[19:00] <mindless_chaos> did you make it executable
[19:00] <mindless_chaos> chmod?
[19:00] <oo> halo
[19:00] <mindless_chaos> and stop light dm?
[19:01] <MrAlex> mindless_chaos have no idea what are ya talking about xD
[19:01] <mindless_chaos> remember you are going to loose gui when you stop lightdm
[19:01] <mindless_chaos> are you following the tute on the webpage?
[19:01] <MrAlex> ah yeah
[19:01] <MrAlex> forgot
[19:01] <MrAlex> ill do now
[19:02] <MrAlex> ok but will apps continue running ?
[19:02] <MrAlex> after lightdm stop ?
[19:02] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: no you're going to lose your graphical display
[19:02] <mindless_chaos> you will have a black login screen
[19:02] <MrAlex> and is there anything like notepad on ubuntu
[19:02] <MrAlex> oh so i need to write to phone then
[19:02] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: gedit I think is closest GUI one, nano/pico in the command line are probably easiset for beginners
[19:02] <mindless_chaos> yeah right click desktop just like in windows and new doc
[19:03] <mindless_chaos> after you finish installing, you can try to restart lightdm, sudo service lightdm start
[19:03] <MrAlex> when i get to black login screen i login then write all the other comands ?
[19:03] <mindless_chaos> but it may reboot ya
[19:03] <mindless_chaos> yes
[19:04] <MrAlex> ok so gotta write commmands in ma phone
[19:04] <mindless_chaos> do you know how to do command line?
[19:04] <MrAlex> yeh its like on other linuxes i guess
[19:04]  * mindless_chaos thinks this will be intersting
[19:04] <mindless_chaos> yes
[19:04] <MrAlex> anyways it say every command here
[19:04] <MrAlex> i dont realy know commands
[19:05] <wafflej0ck> you know ls, and chmod
[19:05] <mindless_chaos> when you login you will be in your home directory
[19:05] <mindless_chaos> so you will have to cd Dow*
[19:05] <mindless_chaos> do get into download folder
[19:05] <mindless_chaos> then cd fglrx
[19:05] <MrAlex> yeh
[19:05] <MrAlex> i know
[19:05] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: if you can use cd, ls, and chmod you should be good
[19:05] <MrAlex> dont know for chmod but know for cd, ls
[19:05] <mindless_chaos> then sudo ./amd-d*
[19:05] <mindless_chaos> TO RUN
[19:05] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: chmod is to change the permissions on a file
[19:06] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex:  you use it like chmod a+x amd-d*, once you've navigated into that folder to mark the .run file executable
[19:06] <mindless_chaos> talk about knowing the  doggy paddle and jumping into the ocean with 5 foot swells
[19:06] <wafflej0ck> heh
[19:06] <mindless_chaos> I think he already chmod, he ran the command on the page
[19:06] <wafflej0ck> ah k
[19:07] <MrAlex> i didnt yet
[19:07] <mindless_chaos> he just needs to get into the folder to run the command
[19:07] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: you can do that in a terminal before you stop lightdm
[19:07] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: when you ls -al, in the downloads directory the file should be green and you should see the x permission for all users (x = executable, w = write, r = read)
[19:08] <mindless_chaos> once you stop lightdm, if you get stuck, just run irssi and come back here
[19:08] <mindless_chaos> that's the nice thing about having a terminal irc client
[19:08] <plt> I am reading several web site and all the information they are giving to mount usb floopy that the devices either do not exist or the devices belong to the hd.
[19:08] <MrAlex> brb
[19:08] <plt> What is the correct device name for the usb floppy because fd0 does not exist?
[19:08] <frenda> Is there any Ubuntu user group on Telegram/Viber/Line/WhatsApp?!
[19:09] <mindless_chaos> what do we think?
[19:09] <wafflej0ck> plt: run lsblk
[19:10] <mindless_chaos> wff, yo going to be on for a while?
[19:10] <wafflej0ck> will be popping in and out
[19:10] <plt> No floppy device list listed
[19:10] <mindless_chaos> I have to go for a bit but I want to find out how mralex madeout
[19:10] <mindless_chaos> lol
[19:11] <wafflej0ck> mindless_chaos: yeah well let you know
[19:11] <mindless_chaos> bbl
[19:11]  * mindless_chaos is afk
[19:11] <we6jbo> Hi
[19:11] <wafflej0ck> plt: when I have a flash drive plugged in I see a line like this from lsblk, should show you the mount point, sdc1   8:33   1   984M  0 part /media/shaun/Flash Drive
[19:11] <we6jbo> I have a software dev question
[19:12] <wafflej0ck> plt: is this a USB floppy drive you're trying to hook up?
[19:12] <plt> Yes
[19:13] <we6jbo> I want to distribute a CD which will install my program from a PPA. Is there a way to do that?
[19:13] <plt> Ubunto lib file missing?
[19:13] <MrAlex> ok back
[19:13] <plt> Ubuntu lib file missing?
[19:14] <plt> I do not understand the answer that you gave me?
[19:15] <plt> Is sdc1 used for the hd?
[19:15] <bubbasaures> we6jbo, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[19:16] <plt> There is no /dev/sdc1 file.
[19:17] <MrAlex> ok i guess i cannot use irssi while doing this
[19:17] <MrAlex> wish me luck
[19:17] <we6jbo> bubbasaures But I don't want to install ubuntu for them, just my program through the CD that I will also have on a PPA
[19:17] <bubbasaures> we6jbo, What CD?
[19:18] <bubbasaures> never seen a cd on a ppa can we see yours we6jbo
[19:19] <we6jbo> What I'm thinking is this. The user will install my CD into their computer. A popup or something will come up asking the user if they want to install my program from my PPA. If they say yes then they'll agree to the terms, enter their info and the program will download the PPA and install it for them. That way I can keep updating the program but they just need to install the CD once
[19:19] <plt> This site is wrong https://rudd-o.com/linux-and-free-software/a-better-way-to-create-a-customized-ubuntu-live-usb-drive
[19:19] <bubbasaures> we6jbo, Do you even have a ppa? is this a fantasy?
[19:20] <we6jbo> I don't have a PPA yet but I'm going to get one and put my program on there
[19:20] <bubbasaures> we6jbo, Okay than, be clear and give details, this is direct ubuntu support for actual problems.
[19:22] <we6jbo> Yeah so I don't know the best place to ask this question. I want to make a program that I'll put on a Ubuntu PPA. Then I'll distribute a CD to my customers who will then install the CD onto their Ubuntu computers and the CD will ask them if they want to install the PPA and the Ubuntu program that I wrote.
[19:22] <ikonia> so what's the problem ?
[19:22] <Mralexxx> Uhh did stop lightdm and i cannot login or anyhing
[19:22] <ikonia> (seems a complex process)
[19:22] <amirlo4> I deleted using 'apt-get purge -y' all kind of stuff from the /boot because the capacity reached. But Other software been deleted.  I afraid that I deleted the boot it self. How can I know it before rebooting the laptop? I used Boot-Repair to get this info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9249228/
[19:23] <ikonia> amirlo4: apt-get will not remove /boot
[19:23] <donnie> insert the live CD and reinstall the boot loader
[19:23] <daftykins> amirlo4: ls -al /boot | pastebinit
[19:23] <wafflej0ck> plt: phone call
[19:24] <AndChat|13169> Nvm
[19:24] <amirlo4> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9254387/
[19:25] <ikonia> amirlo4: looks fine, what's the issue ?
[19:25] <daftykins> amirlo4: yeah you have one good kernel, "uname -r" ? (one liner so paste here)
[19:25] <wafflej0ck> plt: do you see the disk if you do, sudo fdisk -l
[19:25] <amirlo4> daftykins: 3.13.0-39-generic
[19:25] <ppetraki> we6jbo, well, that's all technically possible between creating a lp ppa and add-apt-repository. It's a simple matter of scripting.
[19:25] <daftykins> we6jbo: so what's the actual question?
[19:26] <daftykins> amirlo4: might be worth a good "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[19:26] <amirlo4> Thanks!
[19:27] <we6jbo> Is there a script that will do that?
[19:27] <ikonia> we6jbo: a script that will do what exactly ?
[19:28] <wafflej0ck> plt: this forum goes through most of the diagnostics you'd need to do http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1066686
[19:28] <YamakasY> someone using freeipa and sssd  for login ?
[19:28] <ikonia> YamakasY: yes
[19:28] <daftykins> we6jbo: write your own, if you're going to make people suffer from your own software :)
[19:29] <reisio> we6jbo: pretty much just running gdebi on the .deb will do that
[19:29] <YamakasY> ikonia: kewl! I use this already a long time but sometimes I need to reboot a server to get a possibility to login again to the server
[19:29] <YamakasY> ikonia: have you seen this ?
[19:29] <ikonia> YamakasY: no, mine works fine
[19:30] <[|HuGO|]> can help me please?
[19:31] <EjTheory> how do i unlock root so i an apt-get?
[19:31] <EjTheory> an*
[19:31] <bubbasaures> EjTheory, sudo apt-get
[19:31] <ikonia> EjTheory: you don't
[19:31] <ikonia> !sudo | bubbasaures
[19:31] <wafflej0ck> plt: ah just took a look at the link you dropped, that's for setting up a USB Flash drive not a floppy drive based install, floppy disks can't store much
[19:31] <ikonia> bubbasaures: read those links before going any futher
[19:32] <YamakasY> ikonia: it could be happening because of puppet, dunno
[19:32] <EjTheory> i cant update
[19:32] <bubbasaures> ikonia, Dude I have been a regular here for about 3 years I'm not a newbie, just different nicks.
[19:32] <ikonia> bubbasaures: sorry, it was meant to go to EjTheory
[19:32] <EjTheory> says sudo apt-get -f to clear prob. but root is locked
[19:32] <ikonia> EjTheory: use sudo, READ the links
[19:32] <ikonia> !sudo | EjTheory
[19:32] <bubbasaures> ikonia, Sorry I try to keep low here.
[19:32] <EjTheory> ok ty!
[19:32] <ikonia> bubbasaures: my fault,
[19:33] <OerHeks> EjTheory, do you have terminal and softwarecenter open together?
[19:33] <EjTheory> no..
[19:33] <wafflej0ck> Mralexxx: how's it going?
[19:33] <Mralexxx> Guys i am in catalyst installer and what to pick generate distribution specific driver package or install driver
[19:34] <Mralexxx> wafflej0ck no errors or anything for now just dont know what to pick
[19:34] <wafflej0ck> Mralexxx: yeah I've used the nvidia open source drivers and the proprietary drivers, typically in recent installs I've just used the Additional Drivers GUI to activate them though instead of installing from the vendor directly
[19:35] <Mralexxx> wafflej0ock any idea what should i pick ?
[19:35] <wafflej0ck> Mralexxx: would have to search around to see what the proper procedure is for 14.04 with the ATI proprietary drivers, not sure
[19:36] <wafflej0ck> Mralexxx: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Catalyst-Linux-Installer-Notes.aspx
[19:36] <Mralexxx> Meh going to install generate distro.. its recommended
[19:36] <OerHeks> i would use the ati driver from aditional driver menu, so you get updates and no issue with new kernels
[19:36] <wafflej0ck> yeah honestly if you're going with proprietary stuff you just have to rely on their support and whatever they provide since no one else can actually ever look at the source to see if there are actually problems
[19:37] <[|HuGO|]> I have a HP Sleekbook b-180la, and have a Dolby advanced audio, in ubuntu the sound is deficiently
[19:37] <[|HuGO|]> have solution?
[19:38] <YamakasY> anyone an idea why time on many servers is 5 min upfront ?
[19:39] <YamakasY> ntp is installed
[19:40] <thekey> Does unattended-upgrades work on ubuntu 10.04? When I run `unattended-upgrades --dry-run --debug` I get no packages found even though nothing has been updated in a while
[19:41] <Mralexxx> Ok i started love the ubuntu
[19:41] <thekey> Is it possible that it doesn't expand properly somehow? Because it says `Allowed origins are: ["['${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-security']"]` on Ubuntu 10.04, but it's expanded on Ubuntu 14
[19:41] <Mralexxx> Ok its done wigout errora
[19:42] <Mralexxx> Errors
[19:42] <wafflej0ck> thekey: 10.04 server edition?
[19:42] <thekey> Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS, I am not sure what server edition means
[19:43] <daftykins> thekey: desktop is EOL
[19:43] <daftykins> !10.04
[19:43] <daftykins> also, 10.04.3 is old
[19:43] <wafflej0ck> yeah that's why I asked
[19:43] <wafflej0ck> !lts
[19:44] <wafflej0ck> thekey: that was released 2010, 4 years ago so if it's not LTS server edition it would no longer be receiving updates
[19:44] <christian_> pls help after updating my kernel my second harddisk is no lionger displayed
[19:44] <YamakasY> any one an idea ?
[19:44] <wafflej0ck> YamakasY: you try running ntpdate on the servers?
[19:45] <christian_> what is: [   20.425632] ACPI Warning: 0x0000000000000b00-0x0000000000000b07 SystemIO conflicts with Region \SOR1 1 (20131115/utaddress-251)
[19:46] <thekey> wafflej0ck: Is there a way to check if what I have is desktop or server edition?
[19:46] <wafflej0ck> thekey: well an obvious difference is the server edition has no GUI or desktop environment by default
[19:48] <daftykins> thekey: here's what 10.04.4 server looks like - https://www.dropbox.com/s/e1082t851q7383v/lucidserver.JPG?dl=0
[19:48] <MrAlex> ok im in
[19:49] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: all good?
[19:49] <MrAlex> wafflej0ck for now yeah
[19:49] <christian_> [    1.817180] ata5: PATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 bmdma 0xff00 irq 14

[19:50] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: as OerHeks had mentioned previously, the disadvantage to doing what you just did is you will need to update the drivers manually or reinstall later if you upgrade the system
[19:50] <daftykins> !paste | christian_
[19:50] <christian_> sry
[19:50] <daftykins> christian_: are you just reading logs for fun or do you have an issue? :)
[19:50] <christian_> i have
[19:50] <christian_> my second harddisk is no l9onger displayed
[19:51] <daftykins> christian_: oh yes i see your question above now. so it doesn't appear to be happily detecting an old PATA hard disk, have you tried powering off and reseating the connector?
[19:51] <christian_> when i use "autodetect" in bios it freezes
[19:51] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: glad you were able to get it up and running though
[19:51] <christian_> how do i reseat the connector?
[19:51] <MrAlex> wafflej0ck realy better experience than on manjaro
[19:52] <daftykins> christian_: ok, check your disk connections (reseat them at both ends - that means pull it out and plug it back in again firmly) then power on again
[19:52] <Lunario> does anybody know if it is possible with some tool on ubuntu (or linux in general) to convert a scanned page into text which can be edited?
[19:52] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: yeah well using the Additional Drivers panel makes it even easier (at least with Nvidia stuff) but I haven't tried Manjaro, if I try Arch I'll probably go pure Arch instead just to get the experience
[19:52] <daftykins> Lunario: sounds like you want to look into some OCR software
[19:52] <MrAlex> wafflej0ck have any idea the grub loader doesn't even display anything just purple border around and then boots up ubuntu always
[19:53] <Lunario> daftykins: never heard of that before, googling it... :) thx
[19:53] <MrAlex> wafflej0ck manjaro kde is reaaaaaaaly awesome looking and cool system but not for linux beginners
[19:53] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: you can modify your Grub config to reduce the TIMEOUT to 0 and skip showing it by default if that's what you mean?
[19:53] <YamakasY> has anyone an idea what can cause 404 errors on a internal mirror with apache when doing an apt-get update ? The paths are there but I cannot visit them with my browser too
[19:53] <MrAlex> wafflej0ck i want to put windows there
[19:53] <thekey> @wafflej0ck @daftykins thanks you both!
[19:54] <daftykins> YamakasY: read the apache logs
[19:54] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: if you're missing the loading screen check out "plymouth" this guys vid helped me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jIegOR6A0M
[19:54] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: ah
[19:54] <YamakasY> daftykins: did, index issue
[19:54] <MrAlex> wafflej0ck when i start computer it boots ubuntu but the grub loader doesn't show at all just some tiny purple lines at borders
[19:55] <wafflej0ck> MrAlex: hmm that's funky... not sure about that behavior
[19:55] <daftykins> YamakasY: you're not providing anywhere near enough detail.
[19:55] <YamakasY> daftykins:  AH01276: Cannot serve directory /var/www/ubuntu/dists/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.html,index.cgi,index.pl,index.php,index.xhtml,index.htm) found, and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive
[19:56] <daftykins> YamakasY: that's pretty obvious to me.
[19:56] <daftykins> YamakasY: there's no index.html or similar inside that path and virtual directory listings are disallowed...
[19:56] <YamakasY> daftykins: yes and no, should i turn on that you can look into it ?
[19:57] <daftykins> YamakasY: it's telling you the issue as plain as day :)
[19:57] <YamakasY> daftykins: yes but I didn't got much sleep and better have an error I can read late on than messing up :P
[19:57] <daftykins> YamakasY: perhaps you should work on it another time.
[19:58] <YamakasY> daftykins: no! stopping is for losers
[19:58] <daftykins> then go and fix it.
[19:58] <YamakasY> daftykins: need to get myself together
[19:58] <YamakasY> :D
[19:58] <daftykins> is this your job? what do they pay you for?
[19:59] <YamakasY> daftykins: it are my own servers and cleaning up 2,5 year dev :D
[19:59] <MrAlex> ok found dude with same problem
[19:59] <daftykins> MrAlex: GRUB doesn't show as default, that's not a problem - that's by design
[20:00] <MrAlex> huh
[20:00] <MrAlex> realy ?
[20:00] <YamakasY> daftykins: this was something I saw, packages are always installed :)
[20:00] <MrAlex> ok did update-grub
[20:00] <MrAlex> it set to non zero value grub hidden timeout
[20:00] <daftykins> MrAlex: yes that's normal.
[20:00] <YamakasY> daftykins: and I'm actually ill too atm :)
[20:01] <minolus> hi everyone, i need support for an error, when i use pm to hibernate computer (shell) i see this error: pciehp 0000:00:01.0:pcie04: Device 0000:01:00.0 already exists at 0000:01:00, cannot hot-add

[20:02] <MrAlex> is quickly make app included on ubuntu ? i saw that on video
[20:02] <daftykins> MrAlex: sorry that question doesn't even vaguely make sense in English
[20:02] <MrAlex> daftykins xD

[20:13] <moondoggy> Is anyone having trouble with the latest security updates?
[20:14] <k1l> moondoggy: the more specific the more better support :)
[20:14] <moondoggy> I'm getting: W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-security/main/i18n/Translation-en  Hash Sum mismatch
[20:14] <k1l> try to run a "sudo apt-get update"
[20:15] <minolus> i have this error when hibernate my pc with PM utils
[20:16] <moondoggy> k1l: I ran update twice, but I keep getting the same thing.
[20:16] <moondoggy> Could it be the ubuntu server?
[20:17] <k1l> moondoggy: or some old-new package list missmatch on your client
[20:17] <k1l> moondoggy: i dont get a error, just tested it
[20:17] <moondoggy> Hmm.
[20:17] <minolus> it's on clear install of ubuntu, it's strange
[20:18] <k1l> moondoggy: you could remove the older packges lists manually with "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf" and then run the apt-get update again
[20:18] <OerHeks> moondoggy, see http://askubuntu.com/a/553766 remove lists and update again
[20:18] <minolus> how could i understand why i get that error?
[20:18] <OerHeks> k1l +1
[20:18] <moondoggy> Hmmm...  A 4th try fixed it.
[20:18] <MrAlex> ok thanks so much guys i gotta see if windows is added to grub
[20:19] <minolus> no one helmp me? :(
[20:19] <moondoggy> Ok, thanks.  Strange.
[20:20] <EriC^^> MrAlex: when you ran update-grub did it say windows found?
[20:21] <OerHeks> minolus, any server/service running? vsftp or torrent?
[20:22] <kurt___> hey, i have a supervisord process that source a file (a virtualenv), and after running `hostnamectl set-hostname`, that process in supervisor dies with a "can't find command 'source'"
[20:22] <minolus> no one that u mention, other server like multimedia think
[20:22] <kurt___> (i also did a restart, didn't fix.) any thoughts what might be going on?
[20:24] <OerHeks> minolus, that could point to hot-add error, else it can be an optimus/nvidia  issue http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2236954
[20:25] <minolus> my server work with a dvb-t usb so could be it the problem?
[20:25] <minolus> i don't have nvidia, so i exclude it
[20:26] <OerHeks> if that device points to 0000:01:00.0 then yes
[20:26] <OerHeks> " lspci | grep 01:00 " should tell you
[20:28] <minolus> in that case, how could don't get it? it's annoing error that every time it's hibernate add 2 line.....so i have soo many line at the end
[20:28] <acollins> my touchpad is ignoring clicks in the bottom left corner since upgrading to 14.10
[20:28] <YamakasY> is it good to have backports enabled ?
[20:29] <acollins> can anyone point me in the right direction? synclient LBCornerButton=1 hasn't helped
[20:30] <OerHeks> minolus, best thing to do is filing a bugreport i guess

[20:38] <knobo> Maybe I should reinstall the whole computer with 14.04

[20:39] <victoria> hello. I am having an issue with my touchpad. It sporadically works and is mostly frustrating. It is a Dell Inspiron n7110 and I'm using Ubuntu 14.10. I suspect this is a hardware issue, as this laptop has been dropped several times (I only just got it to turn on again). If there is a way to test the touchpad to see if it is a hardware or software issue, please let me know! (Also, booted into Windows 7 and was having the same issu

[20:44] <victoria> yeah, I was hoping not to have to take that route. I'm a very frugal person
[20:44] <usr13> quey: Fully updated?
[20:44] <daftykins> victoria: you can't fix what's broken!
[20:44] <quey> System or eclipse ?
[20:44] <usr13> Your turn, daftykins

[20:44] <victoria> daftykins, are you talking about the entire dell company? 'Cause you're right...

[20:45] <Monitolis> no one help me?
[20:45] <daftykins> victoria: no, that would be a childish statement. i mean there's no point resisting a tiny cheap item to fix when it's that unreliable
[20:45] <Monitolis> i do't understand why when i try to hibernate using pm utils that make this error

[20:46] <Monitolis> sorry for my repeat
[20:47] <andreas_> ya'll need to not use the eclipse from the repo
[20:47] <quey> k1l : but i dont lose any documents ?
[20:48] <k1l> quey: what?
[20:48] <quey> when i update i dont lose any my documents, programs ...
[20:48] <quey> ?
[20:49] <daftykins> your backups take care of that worry, quey
[20:49] <quey> thx
[20:49] <andreas_> quey, the files you make with eclipse is not stored in eclipse, unless you hacked some stuff.
[20:49] <k1l> quey: what updates are you talking about?
[20:49] <Monitolis> there is a way to understand waht cause the error on hibernate? how could i found the process?
[20:49] <k1l> quey: you mix all things here. you have a eclipse error. only eclipse.
[20:50] <daftykins> Monitolis: if someone knew, they would have replied.
[20:50] <k1l> quey: eclipse cant find some stuff you put into eclipse. so eclipse needs to change something. ubuntu doesnt even touch that
[20:50] <wafflej0ck> Monitolis: did you do, lspci | grep 01:00
[20:50] <quey> before you wrritina abour system
[20:50] <quey> ...
[20:51] <quey> can update for synapthic menager ?
[20:51] <quey> by*
[20:51] <k1l> quey: you need to be clear. you talked about installing eclipse which made people think you wanted to install eclipse on ubuntu.
[20:51] <Monitolis> i do dmesg | grep pcie04 and result:
[20:51] <Monitolis> pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie04: Cannot add device at 0000:01:00
[20:51] <Monitolis> [59762.536166] pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie04: Device 0000:01:00.0 already exists at 0000:01:00, cannot hot-add

[20:51] <k1l> quey: but the issue is inside eclipse. so you need to see the settings inside eclipse. like the link it showed you tells you to
[20:52] <quey> I want only install UML to eclipse
[20:52] <Monitolis> waht's mean?
[20:52] <wafflej0ck> Monitolis: use pastebin for multiple lines you need to see what device is causing the problem
[20:52] <daftykins> Monitolis: what did i warn you about repeating?
[20:52] <quey> ok
[20:52] <john_doe_jr> The following find command finds the .app file but w/ out spaces..does anyone know why? find /Volumes -name *.app -maxdepth 2 -type d -print0
[20:52] <wafflej0ck> Monitolis: if you won't run the commands we ask you won't get a solution
[20:52] <k1l> Monitolis: what device is that pci?
[20:52] <wafflej0ck> Monitolis: lspci lists pci devices
[20:53] <Monitolis> i run command, with lspci it select ethernet device
[20:54] <wafflej0ck> Monitolis: show us the actual line it spits out with the grep command or else put your lspci output in a paste somewhere like pastebin or paste.ubuntu.com
[20:56] <Monitolis> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9255740/
[20:58] <Monitolis> so the problem is the realtek ethernet device?

[21:02] <daftykins> spleencheese: is this of the mythtv ilk? tried contacting them?
[21:02] <daftykins> there you go.

[21:04] <solsTiCe> hi. what do you thing of TLP for laptop power management on ubuntu ?
[21:04] <spleencheese> i understand.  thanks anyway.
[21:05] <andreas_> you need all that quey ?
[21:05] <k1l> quey: dont know if you need all that?
[21:05] <andreas_> the less things you ahve in your eclipse the faster it will be
[21:05] <quey> nope i need uml but dont know what needed
[21:05] <k1l> quey: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8913400/how-to-install-uml-plugin-for-eclipse
[21:05] <andreas_> or just go with my original advice and live the Geany (in ubuntu repo) life
[21:05] <k1l> quey: read that answers and choose if one will work
[21:06] <Monitolis> it's a msi netbook, why?
[21:07] <Termich> Hello
[21:07] <Termich> Can anyone help in here?
[21:07] <andreas_> maybe if you ask your question : )
[21:08] <Termich> okay, so it can be seen
[21:08] <Termich> What's with 14.04 and switching minimize maximize and close to the right
[21:08] <Termich> Tried dconf editor, doesn't seem to work
[21:08] <andreas_> uuuurm
[21:08] <k1l> Monitolis: because resume issues depend heavily on the make and model of the laptop/netbook
[21:08] <k1l> Termich: doesnt work.
[21:08] <andreas_> what do you mean "what''s with", it works fine here
[21:08] <andreas_> does it not like work in 13?
[21:08] <Termich> It does, not in 14
[21:09] <k1l> Termich: its hardcoded into unity and will not be changed because they work on unity 8 now.
[21:09] <k1l> Termich: yes, its hardcoded in the latest version
[21:09] <Termich> Aww :(
[21:09] <wafflej0ck> can't change it with unity-tweak-tool?
[21:09] <andreas_> you can always change to gnome or something like that, personally I prefer unity
[21:09] <Termich> Nope, tried it
[21:09] <k1l> wafflej0ck: no
[21:09] <wafflej0ck> hmm lame, yeh I moved to Gnome after having an adventure in KDE
[21:10] <andreas_> I'm trying out i3 at the moment, a tiling manager and loving it. but I always go back to unity, even though it slightly annoys me :)
[21:10] <Monitolis> i still don't understand witch device make error, maybe the ethernet?
[21:11] <k1l> Monitolis: PCI bridge: Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family PCI Express Port 1
[21:12] <daftykins> oh dear the NM10
[21:12] <Monitolis> uhm ok, i try to have some clue
[21:13] <Fleetflame> Did anyone see my question, or is there no answer? :-]
[21:15] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: the question wasn't really clear, what did you try, what occurred, what did you expect? what are the symptoms?
[21:15] <g4vr0che> Fleetflame, MemTest is used for finding bad RAM modules. You want to choose "Ubuntu" and continue
[21:16] <Fleetflame> g4vr0che: that's what I did, but I wonder if those other options came up because that's what the update was working on when the computer crashed?
[21:16] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: those are just the defaults in the grub menu
[21:16] <Fleetflame> I've never booted with GRUB before, I don't have another boot partition on this computer
[21:16] <Fleetflame> Ubuntu usually just boots by itself
[21:16] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: if you just had one OS installed when grub is configured to just skip showing itself
[21:17] <yottabit> this has been one annoying bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/1306991
[21:17] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: it may be something in the installation process didn't run update-grub after changing things or was in a half done state of some sort
[21:17] <Fleetflame> oh
[21:17] <Fleetflame> That would make it default to giving the options?
[21:17] <Fleetflame> Or does it come up like Windows does with "safe mode" options etc if it didn't shut down correctly?
[21:17] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: well something left the Grub configuration with a timeout period set to show the screen which would show you those default options
[21:18] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: I don't think it typically offers these on a bad shutdown but that could be the case
[21:18] <Fleetflame> ok
[21:18] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: give another clean reboot to see
[21:18] <Fleetflame> OK, I will do
[21:18] <Fleetflame> I'll let you know
[21:18] <wafflej0ck> cool thx
[21:19] <Monitolis> i have read that if i set on boot pciehp force=0 could it work? i have to modprobe after?
[21:22] <Fleetflame> wafflej0ck: Came up like normal; thanks very much
[21:22] <Fleetflame> ....and g4vr0che :-]
[21:22] <wafflej0ck> Fleetflame: hmm okay good to know thank you
[21:22] <goosfraba> hi guys, im currently running win8.1 and im so sick of it, wanna go ubuntu full time. im studying sql server 2012 at the university atm so i cant go ubuntu now, but next class is ASP.NET, is ubuntu good for .NET development these days? both asp and c#
[21:23] <Fuchs> goosfraba: you can do some of it with mono and tools like monodevelop, but it will be a lot less fun than with Visual Studio
[21:23] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: I don't think it's really great for any MS development to be honest, Visual Studio is a good tool but not made for Linux
[21:23] <Fuchs> goosfraba: thus I'd at least keep a windows VM
[21:23] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: take some courses with Java, or Python, or any web language and you'll be in good shape in Ubuntu
[21:24] <wafflej0ck> or C or C++
[21:24] <goosfraba> already done with java, asp.net is the last programming course this year :P
[21:24] <Fuchs> goosfraba: use Windows for that one
[21:24] <goosfraba> ok, im gonna trust you :)
[21:24] <goosfraba> thanks
[21:25] <goosfraba> hm maybe i just dualboot
[21:25] <goosfraba> got a extern 1tb i could install ubuntu on i guess
[21:25] <dinosaur_> I'm trying to set up a network with two computers and the possibility to send mails between them. In exim configuration I chose an internet site in both the computers. Now, I'm able to send computers to local users, but when  I want to send them from one computer to another one, then it's what I got in logs:
[21:25] <dinosaur_> all relevant MX records point to non-existent hosts
[21:26] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: yeah personally I run Ubuntu Gnome edition with Windows in virtual box on an external drive
[21:26] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: for the times I need Creative Suite or other bits
[21:26] <dinosaur_> what should I do to be able to send mails from one machine to the second one?
[21:26] <andreas_> if you want to make web-apps look at PHP/JavaScript+jquery  + HTML/CSS goosfraba, it's what I'm learning now. I'm making apps I never thought I'd be able to make
[21:26] <goosfraba> wafflej0ck: how does that work out for you? never done anything virtual
[21:26] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: pretty darn well, no 3D support in the virtualbox really but I just use it for Photoshop mostly and it works fine for that
[21:27] <goosfraba> andreas_: already done with JS/jQuery/HTML5/CSS aswell, only asp left :p
[21:27] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: 3D support works on my desktop with an nvidia card in VB actually too so depends on the host machine hardware to some degree, but it works pretty well
[21:27] <dinosaur_> Aha, I installed bind server on the second machine and configured the first machine to use the second machine name server. I checked that it's really the case.
[21:27] <goosfraba> wafflej0ck: sweet, maybe thats an alternative for me aswell
[21:27] <andreas_> but not the PHP! bt if you are done with JS+jQuery you can already make amazing things
[21:27] <dinosaur_> Still , I can't send mails from the first computer to the second one.
[21:28] <goosfraba> andreas_: gotta be honest with you, i hate webdev but all those classes are included in the program im currently in :p
[21:28] <goosfraba> java was the funniest class so far imo
[21:28] <PhirePhly> dinosaur_: What MTA are you using on both systems? Postfix?
[21:28] <dinosaur_> PhirePhly: exim
[21:28] <goosfraba> and unfortunately we dont have any php class at my uni
[21:29] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: Ruby or Node or Python are probably more valuable skills, I do PHP dev and AngularJS mostly
[21:29] <reisio> goosfraba: sounds fortunate to me
[21:29] <PhirePhly> dinosaur_: ah. I keep meaning to learn exim, but then remember how easy postfix is and install it
[21:29] <reisio> php is awful
[21:29] <g4vr0che> php>regex
[21:29] <wafflej0ck> PHP with Eloquent ORM and Slim for routing is pretty easy to use honestly
[21:29] <wafflej0ck> but there's lots of garbage written with PHP too
[21:29] <goosfraba> reisio: haha ok
[21:30] <goosfraba> ive done some python aswell, but when i switch to *nix i wanna learn bash
[21:31] <PhirePhly> dinosaur_: I'd expect that by default your MTA is only listening on the local interface. You probably need to tell it to listen on your Ethernet interface and accept mail for whatever domain you're trying to send at it
[21:32] <andreas_> PHP is more like a programming language then the rest, well ...I feel so
[21:32] <goosfraba> is there any website where i can see how much of the hardware in my ultrabook (asus zenbook ux32ln) that's supported by ubuntu?
[21:32] <wafflej0ck> goosfraba: nice breakdown of general query stats using different web tech http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/
[21:33] <dinosaur_> PhirePhly: no, no, I set up this properly - checked with telnet.
[21:33] <wafflej0ck> andreas_: I like that the C underlying the code is typically simple and really with some of these libraries I actually write very little PHP just for doing the auth parts and then most of it is handled by ORM/ActiveRecord provided by Eloquent
[21:34] <PhirePhly> dinosaur_: Does sending an email to a username@host1 from host2 work? Then it's just an MX DNS problem
[21:34] <wafflej0ck> alright sorry drifted way off topic
[21:35] <goosfraba> any1 playing cs1.6 in ubuntu? :P works good?
[21:36] <andreas_> goosfraba, https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3507
[21:36] <andreas_> it is rated platinum, so it should run without problems
[21:36] <goosfraba> andreas_: do you still have to go through wine? steam is supported in linux nowdays isnt it?
[21:37] <justdave> I'm running Ubuntu 14.10 inside a VMWare Fusion VM, which has the "pass power status to vm" checkmarked in the config.  Ubuntu is still showing 100% battery and fully charged, even though I'm on battery power.  Anyone know how to fix?
[21:37] <andreas_> if it has been ported to linux you can steam it
[21:37] <andreas_> donno if it has
[21:37] <goosfraba> ok well, gonna check it out
[21:37] <andreas_> oh yeah it has come out
[21:37] <justdave> The power status does show up correctly in a Windows VM, so I'm guessing Ubuntu is missing a driver or something?  Used to work on an older Ubuntu version.
[21:38] <goosfraba> my usb is ready now tho so im gonna install ubuntu on my extern drive, thanks for all your input fellas
[21:38] <bynarie> how can i set my default cpu governor so i dont have to change it every time i boot?
[21:42] <dinosaur_> PhirePhly: the problem's that it does not work
[21:44] <PhirePhly> dinosaur_: ...
[21:44] <PhirePhly> dinosaur_: What doesn't work?
[21:44] <LinxCat> can anyone suggest a command line real time network monitoring tool for linux?
[21:45] <PhirePhly> LinxCat: mtr?
[21:45] <ary> Hi. I have a PCI snd card CMI8738. Ubuntu install alsa and pulseaudio has snd servers. Pulseaudio was keeping volume too low. So I remove it and let alsa has default. But after that, CMI8738 was not my default snd card and the volume control on the gnome panel was gone. How do I change CMI8738 to default and how i put colume control back on the superior panel?
[21:46] <LinxCat> PhirePhly: thats seem like it displays the traceroute only
[21:46] <PhirePhly> LinxCat: as opposed to what?
[21:47] <LinxCat> Phire: what? i am looking for monitoring tool which can monitor a network interface in real time
[21:47] <bynarie> ary, just reinstall the volume indicator
[21:47] <PhirePhly> LinxCat: monitor what about it?
[21:47] <LinxCat> source/target, port, etc etc
[21:48] <PhirePhly> LinxCat: that makes a difference. ntop?
[21:49] <ary> bynarie, already did that. Must logoff and login to see the changes?
[21:49] <bynarie> i think so yea
[21:50] <ary> be back sun
[21:52] <bynarie> ary, did it work
[21:52] <bynarie> ?
[21:53] <ary> bynarie, it works fine mate. thanks. But now when i click on sound configurations it doesn't open the window to change the cards.
[21:53] <bynarie> hm
[21:53] <bynarie> i dont know about that stuff
[21:54] <bynarie> i just went through a big hassle
[21:54] <bynarie> i basically purged and reinstalled
[21:54] <fabiano> ok
[21:54] <fabiano> dho
[21:54] <ary> ok. Lets see if some one has a solutions
[21:58] <Mralexxx> Heya
[21:58] <mjayk> hay ho
[21:58] <Mralexxx> Whats up mjayk
[21:58] <mjayk> not alot you ?
[21:59] <Mralexxx> Studying biology :p
[22:00] <Mralexxx> How long do you use ubuntu?
[22:00] <mjayk> 7 or 8 yeasr now
[22:00] <mjayk> you
[22:01] <wafflej0ck> LinxCat: in the terminal you can use tcpdump, for a GUI you can use wireshark (pretty sure you need to run as admin to select the interfaces to monitor)
[22:01] <Mralexxx> Maybe few months xD
[22:04] <Mralexxx> Ok not using ubuntu few months i am using linux few month ubuntu few days but its mostly the same
[22:05] <kSudo89> I've diagnosed a Kernel problem. Kernel 3.16.0-26 contains a bug preventing login and creates black/blank screen. Kernel linux-image-3.18.0-*_amd64 solves the problem. Should I still bisect the kernel?
[22:05] <Mralexxx> Do you have any idea does speak recognition exsists for linux ?
[22:06] <reisio> Mralexxx: cmu sphinx
[22:07] <MrAlexY> Reisio thanks
[22:09] <solsTiCe> kSudo89: post maximum info in a bug report on launchpad. unless there is already one
[22:09] <ary> how is the ubuntu package that put all things back to their default place?
[22:09] <k1l> ary: there is none
[22:10] <reisio> ary: things like what?
[22:10] <ary> k1l after i use this command on terminal a lot of thing is missing: sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio*
[22:11] <k1l> ary: why did you remove pulseaudio
[22:11] <ary> reisio, things like sound configurations
[22:11] <kSudo89> The last time I had the same exact problem and resulted in a kernel bisection. What's different in this case is, unlike last time, the mainline kernel actually doesn't reproduce this bug and funny enough fixes a completely different unrelated bug as well.
[22:11] <ary> k1l because pulse audio was keeping my snd volume to low
[22:11] <reisio> ary: user customization of configurations are basically all in ~/.foo directories, or ~/.config/foo
[22:12] <ary> reisio, I mean the GTK config interface man...
[22:12] <k1l> ary: pulseaudio is the soundserver that runs all the sound stuff for desktops. removing that is a huge impact
[22:12] <reisio> ary: irrelevant
[22:13] <ary> k1l, there is a fix?
[22:13] <zteam_> Is there anyone familiar with  GNU ddrescue here?
[22:13] <ary> reisio, I am a newbe mate, to me is very relevant. On that screen i could change my cards
[22:14] <ary> reisio, i have 2 snd cards
[22:14] <reisio> whatever you're talking about that's changed is irrelevant
[22:14] <reisio> what I told you applies regardless
[22:14] <k1l> ary: why would a newbie remove one big part of a system?
[22:15] <k1l> ary: its like you took out just the whole roor from a car. and now wonder its all wobbely and colapses.
[22:15] <k1l> *roof
[22:15] <ary> k1l, because my sound was too low, and o read somewhere that alsa was better.
[22:15] <k1l> ary: reinstall pulseaudio
[22:16] <kSudo89> I guess what I'm saying is if the mainline kernel doesn't reproduce the bug and theres no bug report about current bug should I just move along
[22:16] <k1l> ary: that is just plain idiotic. alsa is even more desaster.
[22:16] <ary> k1l, i already did that
[22:16] <quey> kil: all it's works thx
[22:17] <ary> k1l, sorry mate, but i doesn't knew. Just se a guy that sayd was better and I say why not to try?
[22:17] <zteam_> Ki, well pulseaudio was quite buggy for some time ago, I bet he readed an old aericle
[22:17] <Guest40704> Hello everyone. I'm new to Ubuntu. I created a swap partition but the system monitor is telling me that it's not being used. How do I set it up so that Ubuntu sees it?
[22:17] <reisio> Guest40704: /etc/fstab, & swapon
[22:18] <reisio> Guest40704: and possibly mkswap, depending
[22:18] <ary> k1l: i put the question here some time ago and noboddy knew how to help. So i try other stufs.
[22:18] <k1l> zteam_: yes. could be
[22:18] <bynarie> Guest40704, swapon -a
[22:19] <k1l> Guest40704: put it into fstab to be autoloaded
[22:19] <ary> k1l, like I said. I already reinstal pulse audio, but some things are missing
[22:19] <k1l> what is missing?
[22:19] <zteam_> k1l, yeah probably, I never uninstalled it myself, but it wasn't that extra-ordinary then I googled my pulseaudio issues before, but that was some versions ago indeed
[22:19] <k1l> ary: reinstall "ubuntu-desktop" if you use the standard ubuntu desktop
[22:20] <kSudo89> Forget it I'll just abandon 3.16 kernel altogether.
[22:20] <Guest40704> k1l: How to I set it up to autoload?
[22:20] <k1l> Guest40704: put it into fstab
[22:20] <Awend> reinstall ubuntu/desktop! no!
[22:21] <Guest40704> k1l: I'm don't know how to do that
[22:21] <bynarie> Guest40704,
[22:21] <bynarie> PM me
[22:21] <Awend> no panic
[22:21] <ary> k1l, that was the package i was talking about. Thanks. But my question still keeps.
[22:21] <ary> k1l, why my volume is too low?
[22:22] <ary> jus a sec I will reboot
[22:22] <Awend> scrivi italiano anche?
[22:22] <k1l> Guest40704: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/33697/how-do-i-add-a-swap-partition-after-system-installation  first answer
[22:22] <k1l> !it | Awend
[22:22] <Paladine> hey folks, I am trying to install the dnsmasq blocklist from http://pgl.yoyo.org but I am not sure where to put the conf file on ubuntu server 14.04.1 anyone got any clues?
[22:22] <k1l> ary: then see if you can set the volume louder. or if there is a bios setting that reverts it
[22:22] <Guest40704> k1l: thank you
[22:23] <john_doe_jr> how would you test to see if a dmg is installed as a package?
[22:23] <Awend>  /join #ubuntu-it
[22:23] <Keepitfree> sup all sorry for the off topic question but am looking for irc channels for dj'ing and looping andy ideas
[22:23] <bynarie> Guest40704, check your pm
[22:24] <ary> k1l, it works! Thanks mate
[22:25] <ary> k1l, i will put my question here and hope you can help me
[22:25] <owen1> why ssh -i ~/.ssh/backup.pem ubuntu@<ip> works while scp random-file -i ~/.ssh/backup.pem ubuntu@<ip>: doesn't (i get permission denied)
[22:25] <k1l> !alis | Keepitfree
[22:25] <k1l> Keepitfree: and for channels on #freenode please ask in #freenode or #ubuntu-offtopic next time
[22:25] <ary> k1l, I have an offboard PCI sound Card. The drivers works fine, except the volume is too low. To see a movie for example i need to put the volume at max on the amplifier. Why this happen and how did I fix it. I am pretty shure there is a driver config. I just don't know where. Do you need to know how is my sound card? The card is a CMI8738/CMI8768 with 4 channels. I have a receiver with 2 PA on the orange channel and a normal PC sound system on the green channe
[22:25] <ary> l.
[22:26] <ary> k1l, whe i was using alsa the volume was better.
[22:27] <Guest40704> bynarie: "pm"?
[22:27] <bynarie> private message... look on the left side of your irc client
[22:27] <bynarie> you should see my name
[22:27] <bynarie> click ity
[22:27] <k1l> ary: dont know about that sound card. you may need to search for that
[22:29] <ary> k1l, I search, and u saw what happens. I remove pulse audio and got a problem!
[22:29] <ary> k1l, there is another way to put alsa has a default snd server?
[22:31] <deemo> hi all...
[22:31] <reisio> hi you...
[22:31] <deemo> any solution to this pleae
[22:31] <deemo> ''''
[22:32] <deemo> Package dependencies cannot be resolved
[22:32] <mjayk> what are you trying to isntall and how
[22:32] <daftykins> !paste | deemo Show us what you're doing
[22:32] <deemo> kdenlive or any update
[22:33] <daftykins> which ubuntu version?
[22:33] <deemo> 12.04
[22:33] <k1l> ary: did you try to increase the volume on the pulseaudio settings?
[22:33] <k1l> !paste | deemo put alle the errors there
[22:33] <deemo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257075/
[22:33] <daftykins> once was probably enough, k1l
[22:34] <k1l> daftykins: maybe :) (i was caught in multitasking)
[22:34] <ary> k1l, how do I do that?
[22:34] <daftykins> k1l: i'll let you off ;)
[22:34] <k1l> ary: open the soundsettings?
[22:35] <daftykins> deemo: could be PPAs causing issues. tried a "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" ?
[22:35] <deemo> what would that do daftykins
[22:35] <k1l> ary: "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" in pastebin
[22:35] <k1l> deemo:  "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" in pastebin
[22:36] <k1l> ary: sorry, that was not for you
[22:36] <zteam_> is it normal that disc utility says Unknown partition type and contents unknown for a disc which isn't completly cloned right?
[22:36] <daftykins> deemo: upgrade all packages to the latest available
[22:36] <deemo> thing is I am on Ubuntu DreamStudio 12.04 and they dont have a 14.04 version yet so I wasnt sure if I UPGRADED IT WOULD REMAIN AS ubuntu Dream Studio
[22:36] <daftykins> deemo: ok well it doesn't upgrade distro, despite the confusing name
[22:36] <zteam_> I'm making the clone with ddrescue
[22:37] <deemo> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257120/
[22:37] <ary> here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257122/
[22:37] <zteam_> Hello daftykins :-)
[22:37] <k1l> deemo: ok, that is a new record of ppas
[22:37] <zteam_> Are u familair with ddrescue?
[22:37] <deemo> yeah... my bad
[22:38] <daftykins> zteam_: not me nope, what are you up to?
[22:38] <deemo> I reinstalled a few days ago and went online to do things that people suggest tp be done after installation, this got me into the number of ppa
[22:38] <reisio> zteam_: it's normal for backups made with dd to be a waste of time
[22:38] <reisio> :D
[22:38] <k1l> deemo: so i bet its some of thoose ppas that ruin the depencies
[22:38] <deemo> I shd tone it down but dont know which is which
[22:39] <reisio> zteam_: if you cloned a whole device and not just a single FS, then mount may well have no idea what FS you've given it
[22:39] <reisio> you may in fact have given it many FSes
[22:40] <ary> k1l, dont know what i did, but the sound its fine now, i think it was when I reinstall pulseaudio sound backs to normal. How do I keep things this way forever, and how do I let my cmi8738 card has default?
[22:40] <deemo> I shd tone it down but dont know which is which
[22:40] <zteam_> reisio, well, this is n't regular dd I'm using ddrescue to rescue a partition from a damaged harddrive
[22:41] <reisio> zteam_: ah
[22:41] <deemo> while hoping to solve the ppa issue somehow, something related is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257178/ k1l
[22:42] <mindless_chaos> hello
[22:42] <zteam_> reisio, the cloned harddrive isn't finished yet, but so far it just shows up at as unknown content so far, and I no idea if this is normal or nor.... :-)
[22:42] <kampiyo> hi
[22:43] <reisio> zteam_: shows up with?
[22:43] <reisio> kampiyo: hi
[22:43] <zteam_> daftykins, as I said i'm using ddrescue to recovery the contents of of my old harddrive
[22:43] <reisio> mindless_chaos: hi
[22:44] <daftykins> zteam_: bad sectors on it?
[22:44] <k1l> deemo: apt-cache policy libsexy2
[22:44] <mindless_chaos> Did MrAlex ever get his shit straight?
[22:45] <k1l> !language | mindless_chaos
[22:45] <reisio> not sure having it straight is healthy
[22:45] <neosisani> how can i make ubuntu ugly but only for one user?
[22:46] <mindless_chaos> oops.. I said $41t
[22:46] <mindless_chaos> Did MrAlex ever sort his stff out
[22:46] <zteam_> reisio, it shows up like this http://postimg.org/image/la3a9zayj/a17cc285/
[22:47] <zteam_> daftykins, yes, not my main drive just a USB-drive, but it nearly 2 TB big, so itäs alot to clone
[22:48] <daftykins> zteam_: perhaps clonezilla images would be wiser
[22:48] <daftykins> mindless_chaos: we're not an answering service. ask them directly if you want to know.
[22:49] <quem> struggling to get gigabit speed out of my HP microserver n54l...
[22:49] <zteam_> daftykins, well ddrescue, is meant to handle this nicely and I think it does
[22:49] <quem> which runs 14.04
[22:50] <daftykins> zteam_: yes but you're going to get all the blank space. waste of time :)
[22:50] <mjayk> zteam_: you trying to copy large amounts of data (sorry for butting in)
[22:51] <neosisani> how can i make ubuntu ugly but only for one user? I want to disable transperancy and make it look like xfce (but installing xfce is not an option unfortunatly)
[22:51] <deemo> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257331/
[22:52] <joshumax> I'm have the strangest problem with compiz and unity
[22:52] <daftykins> neosisani: for a prank?
[22:52] <zteam_> daftykins, well, in a normal case with no bad sectors, I would agree, but I don't think clonezilla is designed with bad sectors in mind
[22:52] <neosisani> daftykins, for old core 2 machine which i'll have to share with a mother while my laptop is not serviced
[22:53] <joshumax> every time I start compiz, the metacity decorator stops working and I can't use Ambience or anything like it, but every time I start metacity, unity disappears but the style is ok
[22:53] <daftykins> neosisani: and why is installation of another DE not an option?
[22:53] <zteam_> daftykins, by the way, the drive is nearly full as well so.... :-)
[22:53] <k1l> deemo: hmm
[22:53] <daftykins> zteam_: ah. why don't you just rsync around the bad sectors and spot the bad files?
[22:53] <neosisani> daftykins, because that will install twice amount of packages for same use, which will in turn mess up default apps for everything, which will in turn make mom really upset because she got used to something
[22:53] <deemo> I just tried running the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade now
[22:54] <k1l> deemo: that will not make you to 14.10. that will just install all upgrades
[22:54] <daftykins> neosisani: not if you install just xfce properly and change your session, it won't touch hers.
[22:55] <daftykins> neosisani: alternatively, run a persistent live session from USB if you really can't handle unity that much :)
[22:55] <deemo> yes thats fine... I want to wait for the dreamstudio 14.x version upgrade anyway
[22:55] <Awend> i don-t speak english
[22:55] <Awend> devo aggiornare
[22:55] <neosisani> daftykins, dude, i want to make gnome look dumb and work fast, not install little rat.
[22:55] <daftykins> Awend: italian?
[22:55] <pepin> QUIT [oui]
[22:55] <Awend> don-t work in my pc?

[22:56] <daftykins> neosisani: you don't make much sense.
[22:56] <zteam_> daftykins, because ddrescue, is much smarter than that, it focus on grabbing data from the good sectors first and then take the bad ones, wheras, dd would choose this pretty random and then risk to damaged the disc harder
[22:57] <daftykins> zteam_: i know how it works.
[22:58] <zteam_> daftykins, But that's not what I'm asking about, what I want to know if is would be normal in a regular dd case for example, to be viewable before the cloning is complet
[22:58] <zteam_> daftykins, you asked, I answered :-)
[22:59] <k1l> deemo: if its done try to install xchat again. if it says package foo cant be installed try to install that and see what it says
[22:59] <daftykins> zteam_: no... i didn't ask
[22:59] <we6jbo> Hi
[22:59] <joshumax> Anyone have any ideas on how to solve my question?
[22:59] <we6jbo> I wrote a program in Java. Is there an easy way to package it and put it on a PPA?
[23:00] <joshumax> !ubottu Packaging
[23:00] <zteam_> daftykins,, you asked why I did choose ddrescue, before dd..... :)
[23:00] <daftykins> joshumax: version?
[23:00] <daftykins> zteam_: no i referred to rsync, nothing to do with dd.
[23:00] <joshumax> daftykins: trunk, I'll find the exact version though
[23:01] <daftykins> joshumax: "cat /etc/issue" or "lsb_release -a"
[23:01] <deemo> I went via software centre instead of terminal and it said ''The installation or removal of a software package failed.'' k1l
[23:01] <k1l> deemo: software center doesnt help us
[23:01] <zteam_> daftykins, ahh okey, sorry then, there is an optin called sync with dd to, so I thought you were refering to that one :-)
[23:01] <joshumax> daftykins: That's a rather long story...you see, right now I'm using Arch
[23:01] <k1l> please use apt-get so we can see the errors in a pastebin
[23:02] <deemo> it actually install xchat k1l
[23:02] <deemo> surprised
[23:02] <daftykins> joshumax: no, it's a number :) "xx.xx" typically.
[23:02] <zteam_> daftykins, Anyway, do you think this would be normal, http://postimg.org/image/la3a9zayj/a17cc285/
[23:02] <joshumax> daftykins: Arch is rolling release so we don't have a version number, and I'm using unity 7.3.1ish
[23:03] <daftykins> joshumax: so you're using ubuntu packages atop arch...
[23:03] <zteam_> daftykins, the commandline was sudo ddrescue --force -r3 /dev/sde /dev/sdc /home/zteam/logfile
[23:03] <joshumax> daftykins: No, I'm using unity atop arch, compiled from source
[23:03] <warhorse> k1l,  here I am now on xchat client ... its deemo
[23:03] <daftykins> joshumax: ok good luck with that then. sorry, not ubuntu, not my idea of fun :)
[23:03] <joshumax> er, rather, *ported* sources
[23:04] <joshumax> Darn, I was redirect from #arch to #ubuntu...
[23:04] <joshumax> Where to now, #ubuntu-unity?
[23:05] <k1l> joshumax: well yes. i think the unity devs know better. we are focused on already build packages in here.
[23:05] <s00pcan> joshumax: you mean #archlinux ?
[23:05] <joshumax> s00pcan: Yeah.
[23:05] <warhorse> k1l,  i am here now
[23:05] <k1l> warhorse: yes. so where is the issue now
[23:06] <warhorse> cant install kdenlive
[23:07] <k1l> warhorse: "sudo apt-get update&&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade&&sudo apt-get install kdenlive"
[23:08] <warhorse> k1l,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257548/
[23:09] <jxshxx> Seems I've lost the icon to minimize all windows.  What's a boy to do? - 14.04 Gnome Classic
[23:10] <ikonia> you've pointed apt-get at a website ?
[23:10] <warhorse> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257569/ k1l
[23:10] <ikonia> and seem to have configured other odd urls
[23:10] <warhorse> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9257569/
[23:10] <joel__> I have a 3 partitions, swap, boot (os and apps) and third where I want to keep all my data files. How do I move my "Home" folder to the third partition so if I want to reinstall Ubuntu/upgrade all my data stays safe?
[23:10] <k1l> warhorse: i think that is due to your massive ppas and the dream-studio unofficial spinoff you use.
[23:11] <k1l> warhorse: better to see the dreamstudio support if the know that
[23:13] <Bashing-om> joel__: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving .
[23:15] <warhorse> k1l,  they are as good as non existent... I have contemplated leaving the distro but just havent got an alternative besides Ubuntustudio
[23:15] <joel__> Bashing-om: Thank you
[23:15] <warhorse> thanks for the time ... I hope I figure something out of reinstall if I have to k1l
[23:15] <k1l> warhorse: we cant help you since we dont know what is important for their stuff to work.
[23:16] <Bashing-om> joel__: :) here to help .
[23:16] <warhorse> yes I understand k1l  thanks... I gotta let you carry on helping others now. Cheers
[23:19] <jrolland-ubuntu> I have barely any systems settings after upgrading to 14.10; how do I reinstall the control panels?
[23:21] <reconmaster> hey guys, where in the file system does ubuntu 14.04 mount the network drives like samba?
[23:22] <k1l> reconmaster: mounted how?
[23:23] <reconmaster> k1l: just through the mount network drive interface in the file manager
[23:23] <daftykins> reconmaster: mount one then type "mount" to see :>
[23:24] <reconmaster> ok i think it is the gvfsd-fuse entry
[23:24] <reconmaster> thanks daftykins
[23:24] <k1l> reconmaster: see in /media/<user>/
[23:29] <cbtis> hhh
[23:30] <jrolland-ubuntu> http://www.racer-family.net/~jrolland/SystemSettings01.png
[23:31] <jrolland-ubuntu> Is there a way I can reinstall some of the control panels?
[23:31] <k1l> jrolland-ubuntu: is your user missing some groups?
[23:31] <k1l> or did you remove some packages?
[23:32] <jrolland-ubuntu> k1l: how do I check?
[23:32] <k1l> type groups in terminal
[23:32] <jrolland-ubuntu> k1l: jrolland adm lp dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare debian-tor
[23:33] <k1l> sudo is missing? what ubuntu are you on?
[23:33] <jrolland-ubuntu> 14.10
[23:34] <jrolland-ubuntu> Oh, no: 14.04 - sorry
[23:34] <k1l> jrolland-ubuntu: is this your system?
[23:34] <jrolland-ubuntu> (LTS)
[23:34] <jrolland-ubuntu> Yes
[23:34] <k1l> are you the only user? or are there more accounts?
[23:34] <jrolland-ubuntu> I'm the only user
[23:35] <jrolland-ubuntu> I am a sudo user (I just checked)
[23:35] <k1l> sudo usermod -aG sudo jrolland
[23:35] <jrolland-ubuntu> sudo su worked
[23:36] <Ben64> you shouldn't be using sudo su
[23:36] <k1l> since 12.04 its sudo group instead of admin. maybe the new settings rely on that group now
[23:36] <jrolland-ubuntu> I'm still not seeing sudo in groups after running your commansd :(
[23:36] <k1l> try relogin
[23:37] <jrolland-ubuntu> OK
[23:37] <jrolland-ubuntu> BRB
[23:40] <jrolland-ubuntu> k1l: I'm in the sudo group now, but still no control panels :(
[23:41] <k1l> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[23:41] <jrolland-ubuntu> Thanks; trying
[23:42] <mr_snowf1ake> hey guys, i'm on an old old machine running Ubuntu 10.10. Are the software repositories for this version no longer around? I'm getting lots of errors that look like this: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/octave3.2/octave3.2-common_3.2.4-6ubuntu1_all.deb  404  Not Found
[23:42] <mr_snowf1ake>  
[23:43] <bubbasaures> !10.10
[23:43] <k1l> mr_snowf1ake: you are very very very outdated. since you need to upgrade to 11.04 then to 11.10 then to 12.04 i suggest you make  a clean reinstall with a supportde release
[23:44] <bubbasaures> mr_snowf1ake, Thought it said on the message eol
[23:44] <Guest73621> Hello
[23:44] <k1l> mr_snowf1ake: you system got heavy security issues and they will not be fixed. so upgrade (or better reinstall) asap
[23:44] <mr_snowf1ake> bubbasaures: i know it's very old and outdated. i'm just stuck with this machine for a few days, and i don't want to deal with that. i figure that means that it is in fact the case that some of the repositories no longer exist?
[23:45] <bubbasaures> mr_snowf1ake, In the archives yes, not the regular repos.
[23:45] <mr_snowf1ake> k1l: i know. i wasn't asking about whether i should be upgrading or not. i know i shouldn't be running a machine with software this old.
[23:45] <mr_snowf1ake> bubbasaures: okay, so that means if i change around the links i should be able to get it to work?
[23:45] <Guest73621> What is this place? interesting
[23:46] <mr_snowf1ake> Guest73621: this is IRC. #ubuntu@freenode. First time using IRC I take it?
[23:46] <k1l> !topic | Guest73621
[23:46] <bubbasaures> mr_snowf1ake, What is your definition of work, in general eol is past support here.
[23:46] <Ben64> mr_snowf1ake: you'd be better off running a 14.04 or 14.10 livecd for a couple days than a release that hasn't been updated in over 2 years
[23:46] <mr_snowf1ake> Ben64: actually, that might be a good idea
[23:47] <jrolland-ubuntu> k1l: That did it; thanks so much :)
[23:47] <k1l> jrolland-ubuntu: np
[23:47] <mr_snowf1ake> this machine only has 512mb ram though... i imagine a livecd (especially a modern one) won't be running very smoothly...
[23:47] <Guest73621> mr_snowflake: Ah ok. Yes Indeed. Still fairly new to linux as well heheh
[23:47] <mr_snowf1ake> Guest73621: cool :) welcome to the crowd :D
[23:48] <Guest73621> mrsnowflake: Thank you very much x). Proud to be a linuxer haha
[23:48] <mr_snowf1ake> Guest73621: excellent :)
[23:48] <Guest73621> I'll see you all around I'm gonna hit the road. ^^
[23:49] <mr_snowf1ake> take care
[23:49] <mr_snowf1ake> umm... any recommendations for distros for an old antiquated machine? maybe lubuntu is the way to go?
[23:49] <k1l> mr_snowf1ake: yes lubuntu is intended for old and slow machines
[23:49] <mr_snowf1ake> or actually since this machine probably won't be upgraded like ever again, i should go with straight debian
[23:50] <mr_snowf1ake> k1l: how does the latest release of debian do with old and slow machines?
[23:50] <k1l> mr_snowf1ake: i dont know if dabian offers a iso for older machines
[23:50] <k1l> *debian
[23:51] <mr_snowf1ake> hmm
[23:51] <k1l> you can ask in #debian
[23:51] <mr_snowf1ake> yeah
[23:51] <mr_snowf1ake> i guess i should
[23:51] <mr_snowf1ake> thanks for the help guys
[23:52] <cbtis> holaa
