If you do you have to make a new partition table on sdb a mbr, you can do this from ubuntu a live would be fine using gparted.

[00:17] el3, I have not had to clear a partition table like this, so not sure what y/n does there, I would try no though and see what it shows. [00:21] bubbasaures: ok since ubuntu is booting. I suppose I only need to format the ssd, and reinstall win7 [00:22] el3, Yeah, it may be a boot/BCD repair on windows will have it running since it had worked, your call really. [00:22] two options fix or reinstall is all [00:23] el3, Installs are fast though the partition table must be dealt with is all. [00:23] bubbasaures: I beleave I have just deleted win7 :). [00:24] el3, Heh, so you understand how to make a new partition table? [00:25] bubbasaures: I am in gparted now, and formatted the ssd as nfts [00:25] ntfs [00:26] bubbasaures: make partitiontable. I can choose msdos? [00:26] el3, You want to make a new partition table, this is different than just a partition. [00:27] how can i tell pulseaudio sound server to send audio to bluetooth device? [00:27] el3, Yeah 'Device-create new partition table' in gparted, than make the ntfs. [00:28] bubbasaures: okey, if I choose make partitiontable, I can choose from msdos gpt and bsd and others [00:28] el3, Sorry msdos. [00:28] should i be using a different sound driver? [00:29] bubbasaures, okey, and then I got 232gb unallocated [00:30] bubbasaures, then I right click and choose new nfts. Should I set any options. flag or something [00:30] el3, Cool, than you can make the ntfs if you like, the windows manual install will install to it, if you choose it. [00:30] bootflag would not hurt [00:30] makes it active [00:30] what should I type in flag then? [00:31] el3, a boot flag is all you would generally put on windows [00:31] i have followed this guide: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_headset#Connecting_works.2C_but_I_cannot_play_sound [00:32] no luck [00:32] bubbasaures, okey, I am trying to find out where I set the boot flag [00:32] el3, right click partition than manage flags [00:32] AcidRain_, dumb question but is it usign BT4.0 ?

[02:48] whats the best os to use on a older laptop [02:48] fa7ad: if you're still talking about pinguy, you'll need to get support from them [02:48] Nope on Ubuntu GNOME 14.04.1 LTS :), I use pinguy on a different machine [02:48] Guest18395: lubuntu or xubuntu are lighter than the standard ubuntu [02:49] im using ubuntu ben my laptop 7 yr old what u recomned [02:49] fa7ad: yeah you could upgrade to 14.10, but you'll need to upgrade every 6 months [02:49] Guest18395: what are the specs [02:49] Guest18395: Lubuntu is a faster, more lightweight and energy saving variant of Ubuntu using LXDE, the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment. It is targeted at "normal" PC and laptop users running on low-spec hardware. [02:50] I am familiar with the release cycle, but I was wondering If it will break the system too bad :/ [02:50] 1.73 cel and 1 gig ram [02:51] Guest18395, Xubuntu is the best option for you imho [02:51] Hey folks. I had a botched install of cinnamon, and now after uninstalling I cant seem to get switched back to standard Unity [02:52] thanks fa7ad [02:52] at first I got an XWindow telling me it couldnt load cinnamon, so it was switching to defautl session. Now I have Unity open as root somehow [02:52] there's no logout button so I cant log out and back in as my user after switching to Ubuntu desktop [02:53] u saying xbuntu, whats lubuntu and ubuntu, thanks all just bit new to this so finding my way [02:53] is there a terminal command to log out to the standard user select screen? [02:53] WACOMalt, afaik cinnamon shares a lot of stuff with gnome/unity, you might have removed something. alse be sure to remove mdm/gdm and install lightdm [02:53] if so I doubt this root unity session would be working correctly [02:53] ah ok [02:54] Guest18395: The kernel is the same in all, difference is the desk top and default installed applications. [02:54] fa7ad, looks like those arent here, and lightdm says it's up to date [02:54] ok what would u recommend bashing [02:55] So I guess the only thing I need to do is switch my usual user back to "Ubuntu desktop" [02:55] how might I go about that? I either need to get back to lightdm login screen, or change the default session somehow else [02:55] WACOMalt, try logging in from console mode and running `service lightdm restart`, and yes see that Ubuntu is selected [02:56] Guest18395: Try and see what 'you" prefer. Either should run, but with 1 Gig of ram, you might find Lubuntu performs the better . [02:57] ok bashing thank u, so unbuntu not the best for my lappy with the specs i have [02:58] Is lxle supported here? then I'd recommend trying that out to Guest18395 [02:59] whats lxle [02:59] Guest18395: Top of the line editions (ubuntu, kubuntu , ect ) require 2 gigs of ram or more for a good experience. [03:00] fa7ad: how do I log in in console mode? [03:00] ok got that on my pc loads ram but on my lappy 1 gig [03:01] WACOMalt, Ctrl-ALT-F1(upto F6) [03:01] Guest18395: Then for the better experience with 1 Gig >> Lubuntu, xubuntu .

[04:01] let me google that real quick [04:01] It's the Linux equivalent of a bluescreen of death [04:01] okay [04:02] how can i prevent this from happen now take into mind i have tried alot of things over 30 days [04:02] between changing modpack on the minecraft server and everything [04:02] including memtest? [04:02] yes [04:03] Hi all, i'm after some help. How can i install multiple languages via CLI rather than the gui. I need to install about 5 languages on multiple PCs running Ubuntu 14.04 [04:03] Thanks :) [04:04] 12k any suggestions [04:04] so it was memtest stable...? [04:04] 3+ passes? [04:04] i ran only one test [04:04] so i need to run three? [04:05] flukethought, try reseating the RAM and then run 3 memtest passes. [04:05] why reseat before test, you won't know anything was wrong [04:05] okay after that whats the next best solution [04:05] to stop allocating such a silly amount of RAM to a childs game [04:06] it's for my child [04:06] flukethought, what modpacks are you running exactly? [04:06] http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/details/the-1710-pack.453902 [04:06] hey [04:07] ugh [04:07] the soundbar no longer shows up in pulseaudio :( [04:07] i only had it showing up for like 10sec then it went away [04:07] not sure what i did [04:07] i just installed ubuntu 14.04 desktop to a 32gb usb to run off my 8gb ram 2.2ghz i5 samsung… loads up, everything seems gravy, but i get these brutal lagouts every few minutes [04:07] okay ill check back in with u guys after i run the test [04:08] michaelgamble: hope you didn't let it put any swap on there. [04:08] flukethought, try allocating 4GB of ram after the test and see if it freezes again. [04:08] during the install it asked me about swap and i said no [04:08] well not no, but i didnt specify or create a swap partition [04:08] michaelgamble: check [04:09] how / where [04:09] (pretty newish to ubuntu os) [04:09] michaelgamble: sudo swapon -s [04:09] I'm pretty sure it creates one by default. [04:09] cool ill check [04:09] ah ok [04:09] that would explain it b.c. usb drive speed would suck i gather [04:10] yes [04:10] okay 12k [04:10] michaelgamble: having one would kill your drive [04:11] http://pastebin.com/ZaUfQ10c please help :( [04:11] oh yeah? [04:11] good to know [04:11] michaelgamble, best OS for USB is puppylinux, I also heard of one called sparky-linux but I haven't tried it. [04:12] is there someway to control OnDemand (the cpu freq scaler)? [04:12] michaelgamble, then you just make 2 partitions, one for the puppy iso, and then the other where you store your puppy save file, works great for a carry around pocket Linux ;) [04:13] hmm lol that sudo swapon command has stalled out [04:13] michaelgamble, Don't enable swap on a USB install. [04:14] oh wait [04:14] my cpu keeps scaling down when i do not want it to, its kind of hard to watch HD video when the CPU scales down to 800mhz [04:14] @nerdistmonk: you can try indicator-cpufreq [04:14] ok it gave me the headers with no results [04:14] but its not running cpufreq its running ondemand [04:14] the install didn't come with cpufreq [04:15] nerdistmonk: any ideas why? [04:15] how do I kill vlc [04:15] I tried killall but it stays opened [04:15] mozzarella, type ps -e | grep 'vlc' [04:15] mozzarella: killall should work... [04:15] so as far as i can see i have no swap [04:15] huh? what do you mean? i didn't design Xubuntu or ubuntu, not my fault they decided to include a cpuscaler with no GUI in the 21st century. [04:15] mozzarella: If "killall vlc" doesn't work, try "killall -6 vlc" [04:15] l0rdn1x: I tried killing it [04:16] mozzarella, then type kill PID with PID being the PID you find from the list. [04:16] is it just generally a bad idea to run ubuntu off of a usb? [04:16] michaelgamble, yes [04:16] rypervenche: thank you [04:16] michaelgamble, run puppylinux, or other linux that are made for USB [04:16] l0rdn1x: didn't work, I had to use -6 [04:17] mozzarella: No problem :) It's much safer than running a -9 which will leave files on your system :P [04:17] what are the limitations of something like puppy linux [04:17] None [04:18] what i was hoping to do was run plex media server and a plex media client off of it.. but im thinking that i might hit performance problems doing stuff like that [04:19] Your only limited by your knowledge with any distro of Linux. [04:20] so what do i do, it says cpufreq is depreciated [04:20] deprecated, totally different things [04:21] michaelgamble: pretty bad idea, yes [04:21] .... [04:21] nerdistmonk: nice ellipsis [04:25] ah shit ok [04:25] i just realized whats going on [04:25] So nothing? You mean to tell me an operating system made in the year 2014, the 21st century, includes a cpu frequency daemon with zero user controls? A daemon which seems to think HD video is not worthy of my CPU's full attention? [04:25] lots of updates in parallel to me using the system [04:25] also browser cacheing files for the first time [04:25] so alot of random disk writes [04:25] slowing the whole thing down [04:26] nerdistmonk: i'll leave you to your mental breakdown now [04:26] daftykins: ok troll, i would appreciate that [04:26] but yes it does have controls :) you might want to read up on how to use it [04:26] read up what? [04:26] don't you think ive been looking for an article for OnDemand?

[04:37] It only imported about 16 songs... [04:37] ^lol [04:37] rofl [04:37] Is it possible that you have run out of butter? [04:38] correction buffer. [04:38] im still installing updates like 1hr later >_> shows how often i do an update [04:38] I have no idea... [04:38] how many songs do you have? [04:38] Pfft...like...1200-1300 or so [04:39] I never tried to dump multiple songs at once, just one at a time. [04:39] of what file type? [04:39] And, when I went to open my Music folder, it showed that only some songs open in Vidoes? Why's that? [04:39] All mp3 [04:39] Good question. [04:39] lol. that actually happened to me before [04:39] Have you had a look at the cinfig file. [04:40] correction config file [04:40] The config? Nope, where do I go for that? [04:40] I have over 6k songs in multiple folders in my main music folder no problems with Rythmbox 14.04 LTS [04:40] Not having dug into that one before, but a good guess is it's in /etc [04:41] Also, have a look at the hidden files in your home directory. [04:41] hey guys, can someone help me with a host resolution issue? [04:41] l0rdn1x I have about 1300 songs, and I can't seem to get them to all import [04:41] Rythmbox 3.0.2 works great! [04:41] Sometimes there are some local configs that onlly affect you. [04:42] when I give the apt-get update command, the terminal responds with "failed to fetch" for everything [04:42] Guest67258, i agree with Guest96090 [04:43] phishfi: Do you have access to the internet at all? [04:43] no [04:43] I have access to other machines on the lan though, and I'm ssh'd into it from another machine [04:43] Have you tried to plug directly into your router via eithernet? [04:44] It's got an odd setup. It's ethernet'd into a wifi router that connects to the primary router [04:44] so it's machine -> router -> router (over wifi) -> modem [04:44] Can you plug directly into the main router? [04:44] l0rdn1x: Hi :D [04:45] LinStatSDR, hello ;) [04:45] You left us in #U-O [04:45] perhaps its crosstalk on the ethernet lines [04:45] I'm still there [04:45] I can't connect straight to the main router [04:46] Can you get into the wifi router logs with another computer? [04:46] I can remote into it, they're both dd-wrt routers [04:46] ah old school wrt54gs [04:46] nice nice [04:47] I doubt it's crosstalk. [04:47] machine -> router -> router (over wifi) -> modem... i suspect either you have plugged cables into the wrong ports on one or both routers or you have a nat issue. common issues whan 1 router is plugged directly into another [04:47] So you can ssh into it... but you can't talk to the router and you're on the same network [04:47] sounds like gateway messed up maybeeee [04:47] it's been functioning flawlessly for over 4 months though [04:47] I had to do a double router setup myself because the new router/ modem has more wifi serurity holes that swillcheese. [04:47] IP conflict? [04:48] What did you set up your ip address for the wifi router? [04:48] shouldn't be, the secondary router and the machine are both static IP [04:48] I set up all of this months ago, it's a BTC mining rig that I've had running for a while now [04:49] You still getting BTC ? [04:49] Can you just not ping / connect to it? [04:49] not with the rig disconnected xD [04:49] I can access the machine from my network, but it can't mine [04:50] Can you remote in from external? [04:50] If it routes that way, I got no idea [04:51] with linksys routers, cascading the IP address of 192.168.2.1 stick in my mind as something important. [04:53] I have a question to throw out there. It's still possible to access 3 1/2 inch floppys with the newer kernels, but [04:53] when you do, the drive motor never times out untill you power down the machine.

[06:45] cfhowlett: oh, great! [06:46] Thanks. I've tried it in an Ubuntu VM inside KVM on a CentOS host but no luck. No luck with OpenSUSE either.

In my case, the GF has a Nexus 5 to test with, but Mom just got a Moto G (gen 2) but is still on 10.04. I'd have upgraded her, but a) it's tough for her to adapt to change (away from Gnome 2) and b) she's ~5,000 km away === PhiRez is now known as Ankoran [06:49] w00dog, 10.04 will not do ... seem to recall that MTP was flakey as recently as 12.04 [06:50] cfhowlett: Right.

You seemed pretty confident so I expect I'll have to enlist my brother to be on-site while I walk through the do-dist-upgrade process. [06:51] I've connected virt-manager to qemu-kvm. In the 'details' of the qemu connection, there are 2 tabs - 'Virtual Networks' and 'Network Interfaces'. Which one should I use for creating a bridged network? [06:51] w00dog, depending on what you need done, airdroid might be a reasonable workaround. install on the droid, open the site on a browser and it'll connect up nicely. === XeBlackWater is now known as zz_XeBlackWater [06:52] cfhowlett: I have used AndSMB which works nicely for me. But it's too much for a > 70 year old woman to grok. I imagine Airdroid might be too. [06:53] w00dog, put a link to the URL on her computer desktop and a link to the app on her droid ... [06:53] cfhowlett: I'll check that out -- seems easy enough [06:54] melvincv: I haven't done bridging, but doesn't that happen in the interfaces file? [06:54] w00dog, fun fact: adb will enable you to record screenshot videos from your droid. So ... film the video, drop in your velvety voice over and send her the video tutorial. [06:55] I 'Override software rendering list' and 'Enable WebGL' in chrome://flags but http://get.webgl.org say I don't have WebGL support.

Thanks :) [06:56] I have a voice for newspaper and a face for radio, maybe I'll find a Youtube video tutorial for her instead. [06:56] w00dog, LOL. I'm sure Nana will appreciate your help anyway.

[07:47] EriC^^, correct 14.10 [07:47] ok i think the latest is .25 [07:48] maybe try to upgrade, who knows [07:48] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [07:48] Perhaps this could help: can you see your mouse pointer, or nothing at all?

I'm stuck on one part which doesn't seem to work. /boot does not contain the kernel etc. If anyone has any suggestions for a work around or a better tutorial/guide that'd be great [11:12] DrAvalanche: why are you doing this ?

[11:12] ikonia no, for a OS project I may work on [11:13] Thatd be a cool school [11:13] DrAvalanche: then you shouldn't be "following an ubuntu guide" [11:13] you should be working with that OS [11:14] ikonia why? I'm interested in making a ubuntu derrivitave [11:14] by OS I mean Open Source [11:15] DrAvalanche: ok, so then it's not an #ubuntu issue [11:15] working with Ubuntu isn't a ubuntu issue?

There no in /etc/init.d it [11:18] Parsnip sec to get output [11:18] if the guide is out of date, surely the community should flag it as such. Since I'm trying to achieve a goal which is quite clearly defined (if poorly implemented) in the guide, how is #ubuntu not the place to ask for help?

[13:15] internal [13:15] yes it worked before [13:16] AlexPortable what changed, that made it stop working? [13:19] Is there some way to view the release history for a particular package installed on my Ubuntu system? I don't mean the changelog in /usr/share/doc. I mean something like a logfile (most likely per-package) with lines such as "libflac8 version 1.3.0-2ubuntu-.14.04.1 released on 11/29/14 to address the following issues..." [13:19] MonkeyDust: no idea. http://img.nl.eu.org/7afT5B.png [13:19] wpd: like a changelog? [13:20] AlexPortable maybe wifi is disabled in your router [13:20] no it's not. other devices work fine [13:21] wpd: apt-get changelog [13:21] Eric^^: the changelogs on my system don't include the tag (such as 1.3.0-2ubuntu0.14.04.1). I'm trying to figure out when (and why) a particular package was updated. [13:21] maybe some FN + WIFI key on your keyboard [13:21] wpd: ^^ [13:21] AlexPortable, check "always connect to this network when in range" [13:22] Thanks... I'll see what that tells me. [13:22] no problem [13:23] ObrienDave: how? I can't see networks [13:23] OerHeks: that turns on airplane mode [13:27] EriC^^: I'm looking at g++-arm-linux-gnueabihf as an example. (I notice it was updated recently on my system). apt-cache shows that it is version "4:4.8.2-1" and that the source for it is "gcc-defaults-armhf-cross (1.16)". apt-get changelog shows, as its first entry, "gcc-defaults-armhf-crss (1.16)". This feels like a spelunking exercise. If it is, I'm happy to spelunk. But I wonder if there is an easier way. [13:27] i want to setup a mail server in ubuntu 14.04 but i dont have a registered domain. does this prevent me from completing the task ?

[13:45] quizme: no [13:45] quizme: what is the actual problem you have ? [13:45] or the situation you want to resolve [13:46] ikonia i want to write to the STDOUT of terminal A from terminal B [13:46] quizme: why ? [13:46] ikonia just because [13:46] not really an answer [13:46] i just want to know if it's possible [13:46] that is the situation you are trying to resolve [13:46] quizme: yes, it is possible [13:46] really? how ? [13:46] quizme: it depends [13:47] ikonia, i mean directly write to the standard out, not like tail -f a file or some cheesy thing like that [13:47] yes, I understand [13:47] like i want to compile a C program or something and then write to it [13:50] ikonia, how would i go about writing to terminal A from terminal B ? [13:50] hi, i have a virtual ubuntuserver 14.04 but i cant acces the apache from the outside what could be te problem [13:50] ObrienDave: OerHeks MonkeyDust When I click wifi on in the network settings, it switches to off imediactly [13:50] quizme: thats for you to work out [13:50] ikonia: can u give me a hint ? [13:50] quizme: I asked you to explain why / what you where doing and "because" isn't an answer, [13:51] so I'm not going to guess your setup/configuration/requirements [13:51] ikonia: i'm not doing anything. I just want to do it [13:51] like say "hello" [13:51] theptr: is apache running/listening ? [13:51] ikonia, yes [13:51] theptr: is the virtual server in your home or in a data center ? [13:52] ikonia, in my home server i have vsphere 5.5 and i imigrated a pysical ubuntu to it [13:52] theptr: so there could be many issues there [13:53] ikonia, before the imigration it worked [13:53] theptr: look at the internet to the router, the router to the physical interface on the server, the physical interface on the server to the bridge to the virtual interface on the VM [13:53] theptr: follow the path through and confirm where the break is [13:54] ikonia, i can ssh into the virtual ubuntu [13:54] theptr: so thats a good start [13:54] theptr: can you connect to the web server locally [13:54] ikonia, no i cant connect to any of my webservices [13:55] theptr: from where [13:55] ikonia, from the same router as my vsphere on is [13:56] ikonia I think u don't know how to do i t [13:56] theptr: on the ubuntu server, do you have any gui ? [13:56] ikonia, so i login to the router and the port 80 is forwarded [13:56] quizme: ok, think that then [13:56] theptr: on the ubuntu server, do you have any gui ? [13:56] quizme you can try the 'screen' command, screen is a terminal layer [13:56] ikonia, ok [13:56] ikonia, my server is headless [13:57] theptr: can you do "telnet localhost 80" on the server please. [13:57] ikonia, gonna try it now [13:57] MonkeyDust: yeah i did that before, but i don't want to have to run anything on terminal A. I just want stuff to appear on A without having to type anything in. === lubuntu is now known as Guest8779 === the_ktosiek is now known as ktosiek [14:01] hi, i've installed ubuntu server using the netinstall and during install it detects and sets up wireless, but after restart I dont see the wireless configured, what's the simplest way to get it working and persistent across restarts?

[14:06] ikonia, i opend iptables but there stands port 80 open so that could not be the problem [14:06] theptr: so you know it's listening on the right IP , then it looks very strongly like port forwarding [14:06] theptr: turn off the firewall to test [14:06] MonkeyDust: ls /dev/pts === Guest85975 is now known as fraytormenta [14:07] ikonia, in my router or iptables ? === Granis` is now known as Granis [14:07] MonkeyDust: those are the standard outs of your terminal windows.

[15:05] ubuntuluver: 10:05 < Snake2k> Just download the 14.04LTS iso, make a bootable USB... In installation choose the replace Ubuntu option, it should do it for you :| [15:05] as you wish but I don't give dangerous advise [15:06] ubuntuluver: Seriously, you will regret upgrades, just make sure you back things up [15:06] Snake2k: there is linuxcnc running on this machine .. [15:06] Corey84-: you do! changing repos names is not the ubuntu way and saucy is not even supported. [15:06] ubuntuluver: Ah... [15:06] Snake2k: i could save my files for shure .. but i'd just wanna upgrade [15:06] k1l_, safer than a dist-upgrade [15:07] ubuntuluver: after that you just start the "update-manager" that will prompt you to the upgrade === Rachel is now known as Guest51279 [15:07] Corey84-: that doesn't make sense [15:07] Corey84-: stop it. that is not helpful [15:07] ubuntuluver: but for murphys law you want to have backups :) [15:08] wahtever I'll go back to helping my primary distro then [15:08] The server list I update from is called repository, right? When I add a URL to that how do I then remove it? [15:08] no .. i dont think the root folder will be touched .. [15:08] and user folders .. [15:08] if the shit breaks .. i can reinstall isn'T it ? [15:08] ubuntuluver: Is /home/ on a separate partition? [15:08] no [15:08] Back it up :| [15:08] Guest51279: how did you add it? [15:09] ok .. lets do usb-homework .. [15:09] ubuntuluver: no, data files will not be touched, but the system at such can break and not be able to start. [15:09] I used add-apt-repository http://etc.com [15:10] yea rebuilding a broken system is .. messy .. learned that lesson .. [15:10] Hi. I was at #xubuntu but for the thing I was asking i was recommend this channel [15:10] Rogi_: sup? [15:10] Why is my laptop getting much warmer with ubuntu than windows 8?

[15:11] Snake2k: medion akoya [15:11] it goes down and stays like that no matter what I do until reboot [15:12] Snake2k: on windows 8 the palmrest stays cold, on ubuntu it gets warm [15:12] Thanks k1l_ [15:12] in ubuntu this got fixed by updating the kernel [15:12] i wish i had a plasma cutter .. [15:12] this way http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-kernel-3-17-3-on-ubuntu-14-10-ubuntu-14-04-and-derivatives/ [15:12] but in xubuntu when I did it, the laptopt went dead and wouldn'g boot at all [15:12] AlexPortable: Hmmmm, does it have like dual graphic cards or a single next level card? [15:13] Snake2k: hd 4000 and nvidia 740m [15:13] by the way .. thanks for help and a warm welcome into the hydrogen age !!! [15:13] Snake2k: installed drivers for the nvidia one. set card to use to intel hd 4000 [15:13] AlexPortable: Yea that's probably why, it's probably using more graphics than it should be [15:13] no i set it to use intel hd graphics [15:14] AlexPortable: Yea but is it using that? It's rendering too much [15:14] Rogi_: Damn :| [15:14] how can i check? [15:14] anyone? [15:14] hi all how to open port 3306? i try: sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT and sudo ufw 3306 allow but can connect from other pc [15:15] oops silly-ssd-space ran over ..

[15:16] ubuntuluver any advice? [15:16] Snake2k: Intel Open Source Technology Center. Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile [15:17] AlexPortable: Alright so that's the chipset, http://askubuntu.com/questions/387594/how-to-measure-gpu-usage [15:17] AlexPortable: Look for the right tool, probably go for the intel tools to monitor GPU usage [15:17] jak3000: how can i show the installed files with apt-cache ?? [15:17] AlexPortable: I personally don't know how to "fix" that problem, but atleast you'll know where the problem is [15:17] jak3000: those that belong to one package .. [15:18] Snake2k: how can i check it? [15:18] don't do any stupid comments over software while running ssds on steam .. that cost me my 120G drive ..

[15:22] Snake2k: pastebin.com/gyAZLcTw [15:22] Yes [15:22] cpu is 42 or 45°C [15:22] and it feels warm to the touch [15:22] cpu fan is turned on right now to keep it cooler [15:23] cpu-freq-scaling !!!

[15:23] cpu-freq-set ..or so [15:23] ubuntuluver: it's gpu [15:24] 16:22] cpu is 42 or 45°C [15:24] AlexPortable: 45°C is not an issue [15:24] it is. cpu fan turns on [15:24] annoying sound [15:24] seen it .. [15:25] who * [15:25] AlexPortable: So it isn't the GPU I guess, use htop to see what processes might be making your CPU go insane [15:25] pls is there somekind of permanent fix for network manager its driving men nuts, network always getting disabled. [15:25] Snake2k: virtualbox 4%, gnome-system-monitor 1% [15:26] vbox cpu now 8% [15:26] AlexPortable: No idea :| [15:27] now cpu fan is turned off: pastebin.com/NTMYUpT9 [15:27] hey everyone i have a problem with the gnome-session-flashback in ubuntu 14.04 i can start gnome fallback at login just at backround screen no icons no menus any ideas?

I gave the VM guest 128 mb video memory [15:28] vm guest is windows server [15:32] hi my xp-600 printer wont print at all! [15:33] AlexPortable, so you complaint is your cpu is getting hot, you won't enable 3d hw acceleration? [15:34] Well I doubt that that 6% cpu usage for VM will cause it [15:35] isn't there a way to sort installed packages according to their space-consumption ??

[16:31] i broke my ubuntu with latest update [16:31] testerde: hold left shift at boot time, go to advanced options, pick an older kernel. no idea why you'd want to though [16:31] no network any more, english keyboard instead german [16:32] MonkeyDust: tried "sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" ? [16:32] i fell asleep last night trying to get my current bluetooth device to send audio to the soundbar with no luck. i have to assume its the bluetooth dongle. anyone who has a works-out-the-box bluetooth name brand i can go buy please tell me (the one i used was insignia. ubuntu failed to detect it. after i forced it to detect it, it refused to detect the dongle as a valid audio output after Audio Sink connection was made) [16:32] daftykins yes, it returns "command not found" -- dkms, build-essential and headers are installed [16:32] daftykins, actually, since the release of 14.04, ive been using an older kernel most of its life. as the newer kernels usually prevent boot [16:33] AcidRain_: anecdotal evidence is totally irrelevant. [16:33] just because yours is quirky doesn't mean a whole distro is ;) [16:33] i was just giving a reason on why you would want to :P [16:33] MonkeyDust: "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-dkms " ?

[16:39] daftykins: I updated via update notification, now my network is broken, wrong keyboard layout, package manager hangs up, ... [16:40] testerde: right and you were going to boot an older kernel, how'd that go? [16:41] daftykins http://paste.ubuntu.com/9301520/ [16:41] daftykins: no I don't know what to do. So my first idea was to boot an older kernel. maybe that this was the problem [16:41] MonkeyDust: are you still on 12.04 0o [16:41] daftykins yes, 14.04 gives plenty problems [16:41] daftykins: or could you tell me what else could have happened? I have nothing in /var/log/dpkg.log from this update [16:41] brentaarnold: ubuntu, gnome shell, KDE has a dedicated tablet interface if you are into it [16:42] testerde: ok so earlier when i said hold down left shift before the system boots off the disk... you'll get the GRUB menu, then go to 'advanced options' and pick an older kernel to boot. haven't you done that yet? :) [16:42] MonkeyDust: rebooted since? [16:42] daftykins: no doesn't work on my laptop :/ [16:42] testerde: what doesn't? holding left shift?

[16:44] daftykins: so okay, this might not be a kernel issue. this might be a problem because of the update failed in between and now there is no network any more to get the rest [16:45] testerde: well it would have downloaded first, then installed... so "sudo apt-get -f install" might help [16:45] hello [16:45] hi [16:45] chris_: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" in a terminal [16:45] can i somehow split ntfs partition having ubuntu? [16:46] daftykins: no no, it wasn't everything downloaded, but it guess it begun installing while downloading the rest [16:46] testerde: no, package installs don't work that way [16:46] i have some movies on this partition but i need to split it [16:46] daftykins: and then failed before installing the kernel. may it be he installed something that was depending on the newer kernel but without having this installed? [16:46] isthisreallife: you can resize NTFS... [16:46] how to do it? [16:46] isthisreallife: use Windows [16:46] daftykins: so how could i install the rest now? [16:47] daftykins: he always says "56 MB will be downloaded" now [16:47] i dont have windows installed yet [16:47] testerde: run "sudo apt-get -f install" first like i said please.

I can run windows 7 fine on the laptop with no issues, my problem comes when I try to install 14.04.1 ubuntu. After about 5 seconds after the login screen comes up, it locks the whole system. any idea what could be the issue or how to fix this? I reinstalled windows 7 for now but would love to have ubuntu instead [17:32] oh it has a AMD Radeon 6650M Video with 1GB dedicated VRAM [17:33] I just installed TeamSpeak 3.

[17:35] daftykins: honestly I've just ran the install, but I'll try that right now as I'm on a seperate box from it [17:36] symbiosis: Got it working, thanks [17:36] malgorath: What video card? [17:37] mguy: that was answered. [17:37] mguy it has a AMD Radeon 6650M Video with 1GB dedicated VRAM [17:37] malgorath: I would try using 'additional drivers' to install the proprietary driver [17:38] mguy: i can't get past login screen, it completely locks system [17:38] Waiting on DVD to load right now. [17:38] can't ctrl+alt+f1 to get a terminal, mouse locks up, no keyboard, no lights, time even locks [17:38] malgorath: Can you ssh into the machine or switch virtual terminals [17:39] how do I check the version of something in apt? [17:39] mguy: don't know what the ip would be to ssh into it with [17:40] malgorath: are you getting the address from a router or something? [17:40] mguy, dhcp yes [17:40] acmehandle: apt-cache policy package-name; [17:40] i guess i could check my airport extreme for active dhcp addresses [17:41] loading the live cd right now, seems to be running really slow [17:41] mguy: SSH isn't on as default so that's a moot point. [17:41] wonder if I still have it on USB instead of this dvd stuff [17:42] malgorath: i would think if you had an internet connection during the installer, it would've installed updates. i would still find it important to know if the live session runs for longer in 'try' mode [17:42] daftykins: yeah I agree, and I did do the graphical install and installed all drivers, and updates during install [17:44] wonder if my dvd was bad, seemed locked up on that too so I'm gonna boot from usb [17:45] malgorath: md5 that ISO [17:45] i doubt you'd have gotten that far with a bad image though [17:46] daftykins: about 20x faster on USB so far [17:46] oh it will be :> [17:46] I just told it to run the live cd [17:47] getting an error, BUG: soft lockup = CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [Xorg:2185] (got that 2 times) [17:47] yeah that definitely hints at graphics issues that would benefit from the fglrx proprietary driver being installed, like mguy suggested.

Or see if it still locks up? [17:48] malgorath: you might be able to boot to a recovery prompt and install drivers with a wired network connection, if that system has a wired interface - you have a network cable and can plug directly into your router [17:49] daftykins: I'm wired in right now on it [17:49] good stuff [17:49] !recovery | malgorath [17:49] malgorath: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode.

[17:50] daftykins: as I said in the beginning I reinstalled win7 so that I could run tests to make sure the system was working correctly [17:50] oh right, so no ubuntu right now? [17:50] malgorath: well whilst Windows is there, check for any BIOS updates for the machine.

I need to install ubuntu and want an SSD as my OS drive and a raid 0 with 2 500gb mechanical drives as my storage and databases [17:56] daftykins: seems there is a bios update, and it involves graphical and usb issues mainly so I'll do that and then retry to run live cd off usb again [17:56] how can I print the exitcode of pgrep ?

[17:58] how do I check what packages are installed? [17:58] RaMcHiP-Mobile: no, i wouldn't. i'd full install to the SSD, but then symlink ~/Pictures, ~/Music, etc. to the HDDs [17:58] ^ [17:58] Ahhhhh [17:58] nice! [17:58] Even better, thanks!

[18:01] you've read too much into the "omg don't write to SSDs!" thinking [18:01] just use it and live life :) [18:02] RaMcHiP: I will second daftykins here for what it is worth...any close to modern SSD has a very long shelf life. You will be complaining about your CPU being too slow before you worry about the SSD going bad because you write to it too often.

I can find it in v0.8.9.1 [18:04] so is there a easy to update the mirror list in Ubuntu? [18:04] daftykins: I don't think this is really a crappy laptop, its got more juice then a few desktops I got near me [18:04] malgorath: no not yours, i'm referring to the one i have here :) [18:04] oh :D [18:05] and bam it booted to live cd [18:05] hello [18:05] malgorath: it has a similar issue where the included graphics drivers don't work well with the nvidia it has [18:05] can anyone help me fix a corrupted sd card [18:05] think I should install again and then when i get into working system, install fglrx?

When my monitor is 1920x1080 [18:52] Stephen92ofa: you want to install the drivers from the nvidia page? why not use the drivers ubuntu ships? [18:52] 780Ti probably isn't supported then [18:52] Ubuntu ships? Sorry, I'm new to the whole linux things. How does that work? [18:52] hi, my boot sequence hangs unless I use recovery menu, drop to root and "service lightdm start" manually. Any suggestion will be appreciated. [18:52] hey friends! Are there news on how unity 8 will be on the desktop? [18:52] Stephen92ofa: you're going to have to hit ctrl+alt+F1, login manually then run some commands to install the driver. should be plenty of guides online with the manual process to do this, you'll need to print it out or write it down ahead of trying [18:53] warkosign, What led to this, some details are really needed. [18:53] and is there a place to find news about unity8? [18:53] hello there... installed 12.04 for Dreamstudio, ran updates and got this pop up details.http://paste.ubuntu.com/9303247/ [18:53] Where could I find such a guide, dafty? [18:53] Stephen92ofa: ubuntu has some nvidia drivers already made working with the ubuntu system. [18:53] I cant seem to get these persian fonts work, they are messed up in google chrome (on facebook) while work fine in office. [18:54] They weren't in my installation, k1. [18:54] nvidia 319.76 Added support for GeForce GTX 780 Ti [18:54] Stephen92ofa: see in system settings-> updates and software-> additional drivers tab [18:54] Stephen92ofa: from googling "manual nvidia driver installation" [18:54] k1l_: that card isn't supported by the ones in repos. [18:54] hi [18:54] i have just bought 2x 4K monitors [18:54] the live wallapaper in ubuntu has removed? [18:54] bubbasaures: I installed cinnamon, worked fine. Enabled nvidia driver, it began happening. followed online instruction and "apt-get remove nvidia*", kept happening. downloaded and ran installation script from nvidia, still no proper boot. found that I can manually load from the recovery menu, came here to ask [18:54] Stephen92ofa: you need to enable them first. ubuntu is not allowed to ship nvidia drivers [18:54] does anyone know a graphics card with good support for 2x 4K monitors under ubuntu? [18:55] nvidia 331 should work then [18:55] warkosign, Not to me but the channel is all, thanks. [18:55] daftykins: which drivers is needed? 331 is in 14.04 that should work then [18:55] k1l_: with the GTX 780Ti? are you sure? [18:55] Okay, I understand now. Manual installation appears to be the only way to install them I suppose [18:55] i know 331 doesn't support the 750Ti [18:55] haven't checked though. [18:56] anyone? :3 [18:56] he has 780 [18:56] warkosign, We don't support direct nvidia downloads technically just what's in the ubuntu repos as well. [18:56] One more question, that has to do with a second piece of software. Compiz. [18:56] I have compiz, and the compiz setting manager, but I don't have the options for wobbly windows and such. And ccsm was removed from the software center [18:56] OerHeks: i mentioned two models on two different lines ;) [18:57] bubbasaures: manual execution of lightdm goes straight to the desktop, maybe the problem is in the greeter, how can I check/fix it ? [18:57] daftykins: i checked. 331 is for 780ti [18:57] So I'm good to go with 331? [18:58] yes [18:58] I got trouble on black screen death on lock scrren by vanishing effect on ubuntu 14.04, and i googled a bit i think it's nvidia graphic card problem. [18:58] daftykins, 750ti and 750 will need 334.21, that one is in xorg edgers ppa ? [18:58] choose the one in the system settings like i mentioned [18:58] warkosign, I can't help you with assumptions. You should of just come here when you had a problem with the in repo drivers is all. [18:58] Great. Would you happen to know anything about compiz k1? [18:58] OerHeks: probably, whenever anyone mentions that annoying PPA i run for the hills though :P [18:58] you will be steered there first [18:59] Stephen92ofa: use tab complete for nicknames [18:59] How can i speed up downloads in software center? It looks like my speed is capped to 20-30 KBps. [18:59] haha i know, 750ti and 780ti are luxuryproblems [18:59] xamxam: pick a better mirror: system settings -> software and sources -> find the 'select best mirror' button [19:00] k1l_: that's good to know, sorry i wasn't 100% sure there [19:01] daftykins: did some updates and gonna try to run with gfx switchable [19:01] i just apt-update to solve black screen problem but i can't enter tts mode by CtrlAlt F1 on bloack lock screen. is light-dm matters? [19:01] so far seems okay [19:02] m4db0y, try ctrl alt F2 [19:02] hello to all [19:02] hello [19:02] no tts mode wors [19:03] i think system just set brightness to zero [19:03] to what kind of music belongs this music video? [19:03] and i think i can't adjust brightness by some keyboard or mouse input [19:04] K999: this is an ubuntu support channel, not a "help me with identifying the music" channel :) [19:04] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-he9-F0dic [19:04] how is that related to ubuntu support, K999 ? [19:04] let me guess, because that's what they're running :( [19:04] daftykins: you beat me to it :) [19:05] lol [19:05] well what this command does? :gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled false [19:06] m4db0y: looks like it disables the screensaver [19:06] thx eric [19:07] now i test it's solved XD [19:07] m4db0y: you know the clue is in the words? === Darkvapour_ is now known as Darkvapour [19:08] should i reboot to apply change? in now it doesn't work [19:08] Can I make facebook free call with pidgin ? [19:08] m4db0y: just use the settings > brightness === jrizzo is now known as seme [19:11] even with reboot it doesn't work [19:12] guys/gals, can anyone advise a client of mine RE: ext4/LVM snaphots, 14.04? can pay some. [19:12] how can i know am i using which screen saver on lock screen by entering Ctrl Alt L? [19:12] m4db0y: just use the settings > brightness [19:12] It looks like vanished after about 10 seconds by default [19:13] it tried that but this is not solved [19:13] I* [19:13] installation of nvidia drivers went fine, but it looks like prime wasn't installed. [19:13] you want to turn the screensaver off? [19:13] well i googled and i think it's related with nvidia [19:14] m4db0y: hmm [19:14] i just ad-hoc sloved idle state by setting brightness to never and now lock screen got problem [19:14] m4db0y: you want to disable the screensaver? [19:14] yes either way it's okay [19:14] i'm not understanding [19:15] what you're saying [19:16] is that the screensaver doesn't come but the lock screen comes? [19:16] my problem is black screen permernatly continues after default vanishing effect after few idle seconds [19:17] i set system don't go lock scrren on idle state. in this case lock by C-A-T [19:17] *ctrl-alt-L [19:17] m4db0y: ok [19:17] hey i just dual booted ubuntu alongside win8.1 in my laptop. wen my ubuntu starts it is telling it is running on low graphics and that i have to manually set it. can u help [19:18] We are anonymous we are legion we do not forgive we do not forget expect us [19:18] We are anonymous we are legion .... we .. do ... SHUT UP MOM, I'M MAKING A VIDEO [19:18] I have gotten Ubuntu 14.04 installed on a SSD and have a 500GB raid setup through my BIOS. How would I go about setting up all the cache and home being on my RAID? [19:18] K999: either ask an ubuntu support question or take your childish antics somewhere else please [19:18] venu, update and upgrade ubuntu and look on software & updates last tab additional drivers. [19:18] I essentiall want to make OS drive read only and have the mechanical raid doing all the heavy lifting [19:18] RaMcHiP-TMP: i don't think it's going to support a BIOS configured RAID. [19:19] :( [19:19] RaMcHiP-TMP: what does ubuntu see? "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" [19:19] although you claimed not to have the disks yet, so you're still planning aren't you? :P [19:19] i only get the console window. i am not able to view my desktop [19:20] Nope, got the disks [19:20] :) [19:20] RaMcHiP-TMP: see above then [19:20] venu, You can run lspci at the console and find the graphic hardware that is pertinent in your issue. [19:20] I'm using GT640 and lspci detects it [19:21] hello people i'm wondering what's the umask and dmask values to put in fstab to give access to all users [19:22] m4db0y: type gsettings list-recursively | grep idle-activation [19:22] paste.ubuntu.com/9303615 [19:22] Dice-Man, man fstab [19:22] it says org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled false [19:23] RaMcHiP-TMP: hrmm seems alright, but you've done LVM. pastebin "mount" ? [19:23] paste.ubuntu.com/9303638 [19:23] That is so sweet [19:23] thanks for the pastebinit! [19:24] bubbasaures: i want that all my users of the machine access to the mout point [19:24] learning that was worth it in and upon itself [19:24] bubbasaures, i am really not able to understand lspci. its giving me a paragraph of information [19:24] RaMcHiP-TMP: ah no, it's just seeing /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc as separate disks as predicted since it doesn't support that fakeRAID [19:25] !fakeraid | RaMcHiP-TMP [19:25] RaMcHiP-TMP: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [19:25] hey guys what is a good choice for a mail server which has IMAP and is relativly lightweight and secure? [19:26] The only thing I didnt like about that is that it still crashed after a drive failure [19:26] venu, You should see the word graphics in lspci look there. [19:26] I was hoping to use the INTEL raid [19:27] RaMcHiP-TMP: well you wisely have boot off of the RAID volume this time, so bad things won't happen [19:27] RaMcHiP-TMP: yeah, you can't [19:27] Dice-Man, Ah, you want help so you don;t have to do the work yourself. ;) [19:27] shaan, in a virtual machine, you can run SME Server from contribs.org [19:27] oh [19:27] Dang [19:27] OK I will use the softraid and just have an alarm that sounds upon failure for immediate replacement [19:28] much appreciated daftykins!! [19:29] is enabling embedded-keyboard-enabled works? [19:30] bubbasaures: well i'm not really strong in math :) just give me a good link [19:31] ok i found something interesting thanks bubbasaures [19:33] i can't open web pages....it stucks on loading, and nothing farther [19:33] xristos_: guest session work? [19:34] ? [19:35] I am reinstalling ubuntu to see if the raid would sense and it did [19:35] I made the raid after first install [19:35] it found it so now reinstalling [19:35] xristos_: try it in the guest session. [19:36] RaMcHiP-TMP: you went and put the /home on there didn't you :( [19:37] other then SME server is there anything else [19:37] i need something lightweight and secure email server [19:37] I 'Override software rendering list' and 'Enable WebGL' in chrome://flags but http://get.webgl.org say I don't have WebGL support. I also tried running chrome with --disable-gpu-watchdog but it doesn't help. Firefox runs WebGL just fine. I have the same issue with chromium-browser package (39.0.2171.65 Ubuntu 14.10) and also with chrome (39.0.2171.71). Any ideas? [19:37] nope [19:37] I havent touched that yet [19:37] shaan: try #ubuntu-server or have a look for more email orientated channels [19:37] still installing just to SSD as per normal [19:37] but it sense the raid [19:38] Once I get installed to SSD with RAID detecting then I will ask for next steps :) [19:38] I just wanna move my home and cache to the RAID [19:38] then set the SSD to read only [19:38] That should prolong the SSD life exponentially correct? [19:39] still 100% disagree with your plan [19:39] Almost indefinnitely [19:39] no, your idea is silly [19:39] you need to do OS updates regularly, you can't set it read only [19:39] Touche... [19:39] probably it's related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1301125 [19:39] Launchpad bug 1301125 in unity (Ubuntu) "Lock screen after idle time freezes unity" [Undecided,Confirmed] [19:39] plus you have a samsung 840, that puppy is good for 10+ years [19:39] *minimum* [19:40] OK sweet [19:40] then I will just use the RAID to store critical data and my databases [19:41] we went over this already :( why must we repeat? [19:42] symlink media directories like ~/Downloads, [19:42] oops - ~/Music ~/Pictures etc. to the RAID volume [19:42] when i'm trying open web pages it stucks on loadiiiing and nothing farther, but other apps like skype or update manager don't have any problem with internet connection [19:42] my HDMI monitor show 'cable not connected' even after i see it in xrandr and type 'xrandr --auto'. any idea? [19:42] xristos__: aaaand have you tried the browser in the guest session yet? [19:43] sorry i am new to linux what is guest session? [19:44] xristos__: on the login screen when you type your password, or by clicking off the menu top right - a guest session is an alternative account that acts like another user [19:46] xristos__, if the guest-account does not solve, try resetting your router, sometimes fixes internet [19:49] ubuntu-fr [19:49] WaKaN: /j #ubuntu-fr [19:50] I wont be using any media on this guy, its really only for databasing [19:53] daftykins, since the only thing that is required to keep is the DB cant I just symlink the SQl DB dir to the RAID? [20:00] RaMcHiP-TMP: you can put whatever you want there [20:01] i am cant see anything other than a black screen upon restarting after nvidia driver installation [20:01] the same problem in guest session, but when i logged in normaly a popup mesage in the wifi signal appeared saying:your current network has a .local domain, which is not recommended and incompatible with the Avahi network service discovery. The service has been disabled [20:01] xamxam: How did you install the nvidia drivers? [20:01] Thats what I thought. Thanks for everything, sorry bout the confusion. I try not to do that to people that are community driven! [20:02] xristos_: What do you need avahi for? [20:02] bekks: from additional drivers, i selected proprietary drivers for my card. [20:03] i don't even what this is.... this is a fresh xubuntu install i didn't make any changes except the updates [20:03] xamxam: Do you remember which version you installed? [20:04] bekks: yes, version 331, right next to it it was written something like (tested) [20:04] xristos_: So change the domain of your local network, e.g. [20:04] xamxam: and which graphics card do you have exactly? [20:04] i don't know what Avahi is [20:04] bekks: gt525m optimus supported. [20:05] xamxam: Then you have to uninstall that driver again, and install an optimus-capable driver. [20:06] bekks: it was a supported driver, if not then why was it listed in the options? [20:08] xamxam: It is a supported driver, but you have to install it differently when using Optimus. Thanks Nvidia. :) [20:08] !optimus | xamxam [20:08] xamxam: The Bumblebee Project aims to support NVIDIA Optimus technology under Linux. The Bumblebee website can be found at http://bumblebee-project.org/ [20:08] xamxam: Oh, wrong link. Do not use bumblebee. :) [20:09] xamxam: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics#Software_Requirements - use nvidia-prime [20:09] xamxam: is nvidia-prime installed? [20:10] k1l_: i checked for nvidia-prime in the software center, and it showed me some tools for nvidia-prime which got installed alongside drivers automatically [20:11] but i never found nvidia-prime from nvidia settings. [20:11] xamxam: so is "nvidia-prime" installed or not? [20:12] is there any way to check it? i mean i have no display output as of now. [20:13] its black screen with some stupid cursor. === hacker is now known as Guest58313 [20:13] ctrl+alt+f1 for tty. then login as user. then "sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime" [20:13] hi all, i just found this one out [20:14] k1l_: i did that, i remember, but output was something like: make sure its not in use, i dont know exact words [20:15] xamxam: You should be able to run the following: lshw -C v ideo [20:15] errr... -C video [20:21] i need a program like IDM [20:21] daftykins, I have gotten up and it acted like it detected the raid on install but getting errors on parted -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/9304298/ [20:21] haidora: Whats "IDM"? [20:21] internet downloader manager [20:21] haidora: Just use wget [20:21] RaMcHiP-TMP: sorry no experience there [20:21] how? [20:21] haidora: terminal -> wget URL [20:22] haidora: what protocol do you want to use? [20:22] ok thanks is it for music and videos and every thing? [20:22] guys, there is a package called motion, is there a way to watch it in iphones browser? [20:22] Why *** update-locale: Error: invalid locale settings: LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8 ? [20:22] ok, that didnt work, ctrl+alt+f1 [20:22] NP, thank you for your help on the rest!! Now to figure this bad boy out ;) [20:22] would you potato [20:23] i am still stuck at black screen [20:23] Nvm installed language-pack-fi [20:23] haidora: it's for files over HTTP, the file type doesn't make any difference, but likely you mean link *types* which is hard to quantify without examples [20:23] Hello, can open broadcast software run in linuxlite 2.0 ? [20:23] xamxam: it should bring you to a text konsole where you could log in? [20:24] haidora, flareget http://flareget.com/ is a somewhat good alternative [20:24] when exactly i should press these keys? [20:24] prote: this is ubuntu support, not Linux lite [20:25] xamxam: its hard to tell in what state your system is form here [20:25] at grub selection? or when ubuntu logo shows up? [20:25] daftykins : where does it save the files? [20:25] xamxam: when its booted to the end [20:26] got that screen [20:26] using do-release-upgrade in a server, how do i go from 14.04 to 14.10 since it is an LTS ? [20:26] !upgradeofflts [20:26] To upgrade from an LTS release of Ubuntu to the next (non-LTS) release, run sudoedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and change the prompt= line to "prompt=normal". Then, do sudo do-release-upgrade to begin the upgrade. [20:26] xamxam: logged in? [20:26] i don't know if -d applies here [20:26] but its showing me this error that my system is running in low graphics [20:26] haidora: in the folder you're running it in ;) [20:27] !nomodeset | xamxam try this [20:27] xamxam try this: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [20:27] rww: sudoedit? [20:27] xangua: yes [20:27] Hilikus: Are yiu sure you dint want to stick with LTS? [20:27] 21*dont [20:27] bekks: yes [20:28] Hilikus, -d doesn't apply, it;s for development OSs [20:28] the problem is i thought to go to 14.10 i needed -d and it started the process already [20:28] anyone familiar with local port forwarding using vnc? I think I've setup local port forwarding up, but I don't know what this means: 127.0.0.1:5692<->*:* [20:28] 127.0.0.1:5692<->*:* is taken from nettop on OSX [20:28] Hilikus: Just out of curiousity: why do you want to get rid of LTS? [20:28] mango_: VNC cannot forward any ports, ssh can. [20:29] it is currently blocked in "Some third parties were disabled. do you wan to continue?" but if i abort it it will just leave stuff in an invalid state. [20:29] what's the right way to abort a do-release-upgrade [20:29] bekks -yes sorry, I meant to say ssh [20:29] mango_: How did you setup port forwarding using ssh then? [20:30] Hilikus: this is my ssh port forwarding command: ssh pi@192.168.0.2 -L 5692:localhost:5900 [20:30] bekks: i do this every 6 months. i don't want to have a 2 year old OS [20:30] 192.168.0.2 is a listening vnc client on port 5962 [20:30] Hilikus: Then you did not understand that LTS is getting patchesd for 5 years. [20:31] " and press END keys to position your cursor at the end of the that line usually ending with “quiet splash”. [20:31] Now you can type in additional kernel options like nomodeset" [20:31] doesn't matter. i don't want to update every 5 years [20:31] so, i have to type "nomodeset" without quotes? [20:32] xamxam: yes [20:32] ok [20:34] it has asked me again if i want to use low resolution, plus there are other options like if i want to troubleshoot graphic error === sjefskoder is now known as Guest4359 === Scotty is now known as Guest68158 [20:36] i have selected " one time low resolution option" and right now it is stuck at "stand by one minute while display restarts" [20:39] ok, i have logged in, and it took me to the terminal [20:39] what should i do now? === Guest68158 is now known as Scoot [20:41] i assume i have to uninstall whatever happened after the selection of nvidia propreitary drivers using "additional driver" [20:43] can anyone tell me how to fix web browsing problems? it stucks on loading and nothing farther....any ideas? [20:43] help: how do I exit X server so that I can install a nvidia driver? [20:43] also used this command: sudo apt-get nvidia-prime [20:44] it told me that its already the newest version [20:44] looks like nvidia-prime is already installed [20:45] any help would be great === ariel is now known as Guest74769 === martinsta is now known as martinst [20:47] I need help >> How do I exit X server so that I can install a nvidia driver? [20:47] hello there... installed 12.04 for Dreamstudio, ran updates and got this pop up details.http://paste.ubuntu.com/9303247/ [20:47] xristos_, Start it from the terminal, see what it says [20:48] what's the difference between a normal version and a development version? i imagine they use different apt-get repos to get packages (stable vs betas)? [20:48] scoot: you are also stuck on black screen? [20:49] i'm wondering specifically about /etc/apt/sources.list [20:49] Scoot: ctrl+alt+F1, login, "sudo service lightdm stop" - continue installing driver. [20:49] xamxam: was... I had to restart. I tried a command I found online sudo service lightdm stop [20:49] typping what in terminal? i'm new to linux [20:49] xristos_, What browser and is it just not starting, you have to be clear. [20:50] daftykins: after ctrl+alt+F1 I get a blank screen, what do I do from there? [20:50] firefox and opens only home page nothing else... [20:51] xristos_, From the beginning, is there any leading to this info? [20:51] Scoot: try hitting enter a few times, or F2... F3... [20:52] daftykins: k, this may boot me off... here goes... [20:52] Scoot: yeah you need to know what you're doing next, before running the above... [20:53] xristos_: so http://www.google.com in the address bar and nothing huh? [20:53] hello all [20:54] yes nothing, its only loading...and stays there doesn't open the page [20:54] xristos_: do you have a proxy configured? go into firefox's settings and check [20:54] whats good to view log files on 14.04 + ? [20:55] daftykins: it booted me === Scooter is now known as Guest40138 [20:56] Guest40138: stopping lightdm stops X, which means no more GUI apps so you can install the driver... you can't have both things at once :) [20:56] bunbury: If you know what you are looking for you can just run something like cat /var/log/foo.log | grep mystring ... If you want to open it like a file, I prefer to use vim, but there are a million ways to solve this problem [20:56] so, how should i install nvidia-prime? [20:57] xamxam: i thought you ran "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-prime" [20:57] Hey all I just noticed that my Nvidia settings no longer has the menu option to "configure" a monitor hence preventing me from running the twin view option on my dual monitor setup [20:57] symbiosis : thanks. so vi /var/syslog/ msjnc ? [20:57] Iam running 14.04 [20:57] Nvidia drivers, two monitors exact same model [20:57] no, i just ran sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime === cydrobolt_ is now known as Cydrobolt [20:57] symbiosis : Im following mad scientist script for juniper here http://mad-scientist.us/juniper.html [20:57] no i didn't make any changes is on default settings, if this is helpfull... [20:58] which is correct one? should i mention the driver version also? [20:58] xamxam: run "dpkg -l | grep nvidia" please [20:58] bunbury: Every text editor is perfect for viewing log files. [20:58] daftykins: So how do i continue to install the nvidia driver when I can't see anything. I tried the F2... F3... and every combo known to man. Had to Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot. [20:58] lol is everyone having issues with Nvidia in here? [20:59] nmatrix9: No, I dont have have issues with Nvidia. [20:59] bekks : part of the question was where are logs for running that script. The one it makes just says permission denied. it says has to be run as non root [20:59] bunbury: I use vim for everything personally :) Editing files, viewing logs, etc. It has syntax coloring which is very useful. [20:59] bunbury: So you have to run it as root. [20:59] bunbury: Most logs require root privileges to be able to read them. [20:59] rypervenche: Most logs dont. [21:00] daftykins: i just did, it didnt show any output. [21:00] rypervenche : its a perm issue on mad scientist script for juniper. have any of you used it ? [21:00] Guest40138: lol, clearly not every combo as F7 would've brought you back to teh GUI. [21:00] looks like it was executed successfully. [21:00] xamxam: really? are you sure you didn't typo nvidia? [21:01] nope [21:01] it should report that you at least installed nvidia-prime [21:01] On my Ubuntu server, If I setup a UFW rule does this count for iptables also? Or would I have to add to UFW & iptables aswell? [21:01] bekks: Well the important ones require it at least. Perhaps "most" is not the correct one. But messages, mysql, etc. need it. But I digress. [21:01] !ufw | kevindf [21:01] kevindf: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [21:02] Im trying Live Voyager 14. That is sexy defined lol. [21:02] daftykins: I actually did hit F7, but it was after I hit every other F? combo preceding it. But, when I did hit F7 it didn't do anything. Would it work if that was the only one I pushed initially you think?? [21:02] Guest40138: it's alt+f7 [21:02] Guest40138: what graphics card is this? [21:02] i am also in the middle of uninstalling all nvidia packages, may be thats the issue [21:02] bunbury: yes, vi would work just fine as well. You can use any text editor however...whatever your heart desires. [21:03] xamxam: you could have mentioned that... === shabius is now known as shabius_ [21:03] daftykins & EriC^^: GeForce GTX 750ti [21:03] xam xam... somehowe you are doing stuff that cannot go together. [21:03] oh this one still [21:05] Guest40138: yeah, you need to find a guide like i mentioned the first time that shows you the complete process, either write it down or print it out *then* try :) [21:05] * l0rdn1x will be back in 45min to 1hr o()xxxx[{:::::L::::I::::N::::U:::::X::::::::::::> [21:05] l0rdn1x: you're going to get shouted at for that away script... please disable it in here [21:06] i have followed this for uninstallation: http://askubuntu.com/questions/41681/blank-screen-after-installing-nvidia-restricted-driver [21:06] and i have been successfully able to log in using regular log in screen, [21:06] is there any risk over doing a do-release-upgrade with screen?

[21:08] xamxam: yeah that link is useless [21:08] daftykins: oh lol [21:08] lol [21:08] it worked for me [21:08] Guest40138: the clue was your nickname not being used :P [21:08] sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-prime [21:08] should i run this? [21:08] you can try yes [21:09] daftykins: this is the first time ive ever IRC'd. establishing a nick seems to be still be a little elusive... [21:09] Guest40138: jump in #freenode and they'll be happy to help you out. [21:10] how long does it take to clone a 2TB harddrives using dd @ bs=512 [21:10] how long is a piece of string? [21:10] jhc76: Quite a while. You should use something like bs=4M [21:10] join #freenode [21:11] jhc76: Ages. Use a sane blocksize, like 32M. [21:11] jhc76: You can check the progress by running "killall -USR1 dd" in another terminal [21:11] moments after login i am presented with this error: sorry, ubuntu has experienced an internal error, executable path: usr/bin/Xorg [21:11] ok... thanks bekks & rypervenche [21:11] is it the side effect of uninstallation process? [21:11] jhc76: The progress will show up in the terminal in which you are running the dd command. [21:11] xamxam: could be, the guide you followed was terrible. [21:11] Guest40138: you need a leading / [21:12] guess, i will have to reinstall ubuntu to make it right? [21:12] don't think so. [21:12] hard to tell what you've done now though :( [21:13] xamxam: did you install nvidia-331 and nvidia-prime together yet? === flavio is now known as Guest7454 [21:14] i am going to do it.

[21:15] good question Prezident, never heard of that one [21:15] lol. === Guest40138 is now known as Scoot [21:17] daftykins: that command has been successfully executed, i think. [21:17] what now? [21:18] reboot [21:18] back shortly [21:18] ok [21:19] nope, nope, nope, nope, same black screen [21:22] I have a command/syntax question [21:23] mybox1776: So ask it :) [21:23] Is there a way, in the command FIND to add color to highlight when it finds what your're looking for? [21:23] For example, like grep --color=auto xyz >file [21:24] Anyone wanna help a brotha out with some basic security/file sharing/service running questions?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience === Scotty is now known as Guest34785 [21:25] mybox1776: Find only outputs what you are asking it to output. No need for colors at that point. :) === Guest34785 is now known as Scoot [21:25] I shared out a folder via the file explorer frontend, but I see no configuration for it in the smb.conf file. Where does it configure the shares? [21:25] I am looking through sendmail logs, and say, I need to highlight a session ID or whatever, and there are a tone all gobbled up [21:26] Toadlips: in the config of your file explorer. It does not use Samba. [21:27] bekks: that's what I was wondering. The interesting thing is that it made me install samba when I created the share [21:28] mybox1776: find finds files [21:28] bekks: so I suppose I can't use the smb.conf to specify group permissions on a particular folder? [21:29] Toadlips: Of course you can. But have to create your shares using Samba then, not usig the file explorer. [21:29] mybox1776: if you're looking at a log with less, use / to search for it and highlight it ( use n to select the next match ) [21:29] Last time I checked, everything in UNIX and LINUX IS a file [21:29] mybox1776: i meant it searches for the file names, not content [21:30] gotctah === Desu is now known as MrElendig [21:30] bekks: sounds reasonable...what does that file explorer (not sure what the real name is) use to share the files, then? Is there any more control available than what you see on the frontend? [21:30] That makes good sense, lemme try it [21:31] Toadlips: VFS, or something like that. I never used it for anything important. [21:31] hi, I need to know the sudo command to install inxi. can someone in here help me with this, I was guided here by arctictelecom. [21:31] abnormal: sudo apt-get install inxi [21:31] abnormal: sudo apt-get install inxi ? [21:32] it didn't work. [21:32] abnormal: enable the universe repo [21:32] Reading package lists... Done [21:32] Building dependency tree [21:32] Reading state information... Done [21:32] E: Unable to locate package inxi [21:32] bekks: maybe I should just go ahead and drop that share and then use samba. I'm just trying to share out a folder to a Win7 machine on a workgroup. I created a group and added a new user to it. I'd like it to be read only access for that user, though. [21:32] abnormal: open the dash > software & sources [21:32] * & updates [21:32] abnormal: what version ubuntu [21:33] poresise [21:33] presise [21:33] 13 point something [21:33] inxi isn't in precise [21:33] Toadlips: You're better off using samba then, yes. Win 7 Professional supports using NFS shares, too. [21:33] abnormal: Precise isnt 13 point something. [21:33] ok what can I do to get inxi? [21:33] abnormal: Whats the output of "lsb_release -sd"? [21:34] upgrade to 14.04 [21:34] min... [21:34] bekks: would you recommend nfs over samba? [21:34] Toadlips: I'd recommend everything over samba :) [21:35] i need suggestions on what desktop to install [21:35] abnormal@abnormal:~$ sudo lsb_release-sd [21:35] sudo: lsb_release-sd: command not found [21:35] abnormal@abnormal:~$ [21:35] in ubuntu server 14.04 [21:35] bekks: heheheh! OK, that's good, because after I added the libpam-smbpass library, I get "memory leaking" errors every time I type in a password [21:35] abnormal: lsb_release -d [21:35] abnormal: Not the whitespace between lsb_release and -sd [21:35] abnormal: mind the gap [21:35] abnormal: you don't need to use sudo with that [21:35] abnormal: only use sudo for things that require it, using it for every command is not a good idea [21:36] ok [21:36] *Note even :) [21:36] min... [21:37] John_John__, desktop on a server .. something light as openbox or xubuntu [21:37] how exactly do i install it ? [21:38] sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop === John_John__ is now known as John_John_ [21:38] xubuntu better than openbox ? [21:39] John_John_: nothing is really "better" than anything else, use what you like [21:39] that is an opinion, i guess, try it yourself? [21:39] xubuntu uses XFCE. And in terms of software, there is no "better", but just "personal decision". [21:39] Toadlips: Unless you have Windows machines that you need to be able to share with, NFS will be better. [21:39] Description: Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS [21:40] !info inxi precise [21:40] Package inxi does not exist in precise [21:40] well that's nice... ty [21:41] ok then I will just have to live without it. [21:41] abnormal: its not included for 12.04, its included since 14.04 [21:41] or upgrade to 14.04 [21:41] okay so the server became unresponsive again [21:41] i don't know what to do [21:41] rypervenche: well, as it happens it is a Windows 7 machine that I'd like to be the client...will NFS still work? I only require read only access to one share. However, Ideally I would like ubuntu to be able to access a share on the Win7 machine, as well. [21:41] flukethought, is an external monitor hooked up? [21:41] yes [21:41] abnormal: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/284635/inxi-installation-on-ubuntu [21:41] I can't upgrade to 14 cuz it will kill my lappy. [21:41] and hello again 12k thank you for being so helpful [21:41] is it totally unresponsive? nothing on the screen? [21:41] is it even possible to install nvidia-prime drivers and to not have a black screen afterwards? [21:42] xamxam: Yes. [21:42] abnormal: what makes you say that [21:42] anyone that can helop me recover grub on my ubuntu system? I had another distro overwrite it and i forgot to restore it all before i rebooted and cannot get back into that. I have the live ubuntu distro booted [21:42] And why hello, flukethought [21:42] xamxam: yes. [21:42] I have tried several times now, and each time i had to uninstall drivers :( [21:42] It's a Dell B120.. old, slow maching [21:42] 12k yea screen went black [21:42] xamxam: did you try the nomodeset setting in grub? did it help? [21:42] did you set the java flags to use 4GB of ram and not 6GB? [21:43] yes [21:43] 4096 [21:43] k1l_: yes, i did, and that error solved but only after i removed those drivers [21:43] see the dmesg logs in /var/log/ (they get renamed on every reboot to +1) [21:43] and from the looks of it it seemed to work out great over night and everything [21:44] and then boom out of no where [21:44] see what happens with the nvidia driver [21:44] could it be garbage collection? [21:44] i purged them, all of them. because they wont let me log in. [21:44] flukethought, did you ever try reseating the RAM? [21:45] or something else that is effecting it the servers only job is minecraft which i don't get how vps can do flawlessly and a dedicated box can't [21:45] the memory test showed nothing wrong [21:45] shouldn't i try using drivers from nvidia website instead of what came in with ubuntu? [21:45] xamxam: no [21:45] flukethought, just in case, try reseating it. === Jactive is now known as Jactive|OFF [21:45] and anything else reseatable. === FwG_Player is now known as Player_ [21:45] xamxam: we are past the "we install random things and just hope" stage. lets see what the error is [21:46] okay i can do that but to be honest shutting down the server hard wise is causing the world to become currupt [21:46] k1l_: and how should i see that? [21:46] flukethought, that's why you always keep backups. [21:47] are you sure you cannot type anything into the computer with a keyboard and external monitor? === Jactive|OFF is now known as Jactive [21:47] yep nothing [21:47] xamxam: i explained already [21:47] i was running a pregen [21:47] before the server crashed [21:48] k1l_, it worked, thank you very much. [21:48] can someone give me a hand with an internet problem? [21:49] is there some kinda crash log i can pull from the server to see what it is [21:49] i know the minecraft server has a log, i don't know about Linux/Ubuntu though.

You'll probably want to set up a samba server on your Windows machine and then have your Ubuntu machine be able to access it. [21:50] http://paste.ubuntu.com/9305288/ [21:52] i dont have any nvidia drivers installed on my system as of now. i think i should mention it here.

[21:55] no, how do i do that? [21:56] rypervenche: thanks, rypervenche! Yes, it looks like I should use samba for the share... [21:56] xamxam: see the dmesg.0 log from the start with the nvidia drivers enabled [21:56] frankk: /etc/hosts [21:56] it's a text file [21:56] frankk, run a speed test in the browser, e.g. http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/best-internet-speed-tests/ (Caution, many ISPs detect you're running a speedtest and magically it gets faster.) [21:56] Nach0z: Nope. /etc/resolv.conf [21:56] wait yeah [21:56] not hosts, that's manual dns entries >_< [21:57] Nach0z: And using network-manager, you're better using network-manager instead editing those files manually.

I have the same issue with chromium-browser package (39.0.2171.65 Ubuntu 14.10) and also with chrome (39.0.2171.71). Any ideas? [22:01] is it a terminal command? [22:01] i tried to run /etc/hosts and it said permission denied. i tried to run it as root and nothing happened. also with the speed test full webpages wont even load. i dont think i can do it [22:01] xamxam: yes [22:02] I just found out that twinview is not available in 304 and up? Why is that? [22:02] for Nvidia drivers [22:02] http://paste.ubuntu.com/9305430/ [22:02] Soo .. I've been playing Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup v.13 recently and decided to try and upgrade it to v.15. After much hours learning apt commands, editing source.list, etc I finally managed to get the server for v.15 recognised on my 'apt update' list. Now a new error occurs telling me v.15 depends on a package called Liblua5.1-0. I can't reinstall v.13 because of the same dependancy. [22:03] " Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 High Definition Audio Controller" This is so wrong. i have an IDT soundcard [22:04] xamxam: that's the HDMI port, you're wrong :) [22:04] My question is, why can't I re-install a program I was able to use earlier today? I don't think I've updated my system at all, and if I could already run v.13 i must have had liblua5.1-0. Only now it seems to have gone .. [22:04] This is nvidia twinview setup is driving me nuts [22:05] Is there a system restore like function in ubuntu? [22:06] nmatrix9: don't know off hand but i think twinview is ancient talk, 304 is an ancient driver too. all you want is two screens up at once right? [22:06] daftykins: thanks for correction, but shouldn't it be listing sound card here instead of HDMI port? === Jactive is now known as Jactive|OFF [22:06] xamxam: Linux sees all devices, that's one of them :) i'm sure the other one is there too [22:06] sometimes under names you don't recognise from, e.g. Windows [22:07] daftykins, I have two screens up problem is my second monitor is stuck at 800x600 [22:07] Guest54535, Not a full system, describe what you need. [22:07] nmatrix9: won't nvidia-settings correct it? [22:08] Nope, my sound card is not even in that list. i dont know how ubuntu is managing sound here on my system. [22:08] if it works, don't fix it. [22:08] daftykins, Monitors are the exact same model, connected to same video card, just that second monitor can only do 800x600 max while second monitor has more options for higher resolutions. [22:08] *Primary monitor [22:09] This is ridiculous [22:09] hay [22:10] Honestly I'm not entirely sure what I need. My issue is pretty vague. [22:10] nmatrix9: right so, what does nvidia-settings offer ? [22:10] nvidia-prime must be missing my laptop :v [22:11] daftykins, monitor2 max: 800x600, monitor1: max 1440 x 900 [22:11] nmatrix9: right but can't you select monitor2 and change resolution in there? [22:12] Guest54535, It seems you just messed with the sources to get what you wanted not really understanding. Anything removed or ticked '#' off? === PhiRez is now known as Ankoran [22:13] ok, so I attempted to set up a share in samba. I created a group (winusers) and added a user (winuser). I believe I set up the share in the smb.conf file: [winusers] path=/path/to/folder comment = Shared Media writeable = no valid users = winuser [22:13] I'm pretty sure I've left source.list intact, minus what I'd added. [22:13] daftykins, I can select it but the monitor settings have max resolution of 800x600 [22:13] Guest54535, Where any added you've removed PPA's? [22:13] daftykins, for the second monitor [22:13] i am thinking of doing a bumbleebee instead of nvidia-prime [22:14] xamxam: see line 860 from dmesg log [22:15] I can see the share from my Windows machine, but winuser user does not seem to have access [22:16] k1l_: [ 9.005193] [drm] Wrong MCH_SSKPD value: 0x16040307 [22:16] xamxam: yes, and the 2 next lines [22:16] Guest54535, Not sure if or what you have removed nor if you used sources.list.d. There is a ppa-purge option that reverts the added to the ubuntu repos version, not sure on relevance in this game any ppa that is. [22:16] it makes sense.... [22:16] lol [22:17] Its okay bubb, I don't think I'll be solving this problem any time soon. I'll come back when I'm a bit more learned. [22:17] nmatrix9: what does xrandr say? [22:17] i did this stupid uefi unlock thing, which may have messed up my bios [22:17] xamxam: ugh now you tell us you did some weird quirk :P [22:17] xamxam: i no longer trust a single thing with your setup, you might want to resolve all of that first.

[22:26] I mean just xrandr [22:28] !find civet [22:28] File civet found in openclipart-png, openclipart-svg [22:28] nmatrix9: try xrandr --newmode "1366x768" 85.86 1368 1440 1584 1800 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync [22:28] it's a long shot [22:28] while still in X? [22:28] nmatrix9: yeah [22:29] EriC^^, the frequency a bit too high I'll play it safe and stick with 75 [22:29] it's 1366 x 768 @ 60Hz [22:30] use gtf 1366 768 60 ( for example ) to get any modeline you want [22:33] EriC^^, ok I ran it should something happend? [22:36] nmatrix9: try xrandr --addmode dvi-... "1366x768" [22:36] Anyone here good with partitioning Windows 7? [22:37] chipotlefan: You might better ask in ##windows :) [22:37] well I'm doing it for the purpose of installing ubuntu [22:38] EriC^^, X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) . . . [22:38] nmatrix9: then xrandr --output dvi... --mode "1366x768" [22:38] Hi! Does anybody know what is the 'official' GUI way to uninstall a font? I just can't find how to do that with Font Manager. Any idea? [22:38] chipotlefan, In general you want to use it's partitioner if you can if resizing. a ##windows issue === BoD`away is now known as BoD [22:38] oookay I'll go check out ##windows [22:39] chipotlefan windows 7 has a built in partitioner look for disk management in andinistrative tools [22:41] i have reverted to original bios, now how should i proceed about installation of nvidia-prime? i want to start from scratch. [22:41] nmatrix9: you could try xrandr --fb 1366x768 [22:41] nmatrix9: you might need to reopen the apps though [22:42] EriC^^, reopen the apps? close all apps and start it up again? [22:42] nmatrix9: try xrandr --fb [22:42] it might do something funky though [22:42] never tried it.. [22:42] Is there a list anywhere of fixes to get Ubuntu 14.04 working on a chromebook? [22:43] EriC^^, xrandr --fb 1366x768 [22:43] xrandr: specified screen 1366x768 not large enough for output DVI-I-2 (1440x900+800+0) [22:43] xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed [22:46] nmatrix9: try xrandr --output dvi-.. --scale 1.5x1.5 [22:49] EriC^^, it shrank it but I believe the view port out is still stuck at 800x600, the second monitor is blurry as heck [22:50] What if your trying to grep something but the text your trying to grep for happens to have a regular expression inside of the file???? [22:50] EriC^^, I checked the nvidia-settings yep, the viewPortin and panning changed but the viewportout is still 800x600 [22:50] In other words how do you grep for characters that are used for regular expressions? [22:50] nmatrix9: Have you seen: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution ? Maybe of some help. [22:51] l0rdn1x: "\" [22:51] EriC^^, so \ before the expression? [22:52] yup [22:52] k thanks [22:53] EriC^^, so if I was looking for three dollar signs it would be \$\$\$ last question lol [22:53] l0rdn1x: yup [22:54] :D [22:54] hey I installed a 32 bit emulator with "sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i Gens_2.16.7_i386.deb [22:54] " and now I cannot seem to remove it ? help [22:54] EriC^^, awesome thanks ;) [22:54] no problem [22:54] because I have 64 bit, obviously I should have mentioned [22:54] how do I remove this now ? [22:56] nmatrix9: ok, try to do --scale 0.25x0.25 [22:57] lustic: what's the package called? [22:57] EriC^^, it ballooned up, did you see my pastbin I put up fo xrandr -q? [22:58] sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i Gens_2.16.7_i386.deb [22:58] it's a sega emulator, thats how I installed it [22:58] EriC^^, half the screen filled up with a corner of a window [22:58] lustic: ok, what's the package's name? [22:58] genesis something? [22:58] Gens_2.16.7_i386.deb === zerolegend is now known as linuxcraft [22:59] i mean the name of the application [22:59] not the filename [22:59] Gens/gs === linuxcraft is now known as ZerOlegend [22:59] EriC^^, if I can just figure how to set the viewport out to 1440x900 we'd be golden [22:59] ok try dpkg -l | grep gens [22:59] I have a user who is a member of a group (winusers), and the group permissions show r-x, but he can't open the directory...the user does not have a home directory assigned. Does that matter? [23:00] okay eric yes and [23:00] it shows this " lustic@local01:~$ dpkg -l | grep gens [23:00] iU gens 2.16.7 i386 Sega Genesis, Sega CD, and Sega 32X emulator" [23:00] nmatrix9: ok this should bring it close to normal --scale 2.5x2.5 [23:01] lustic: hmm [23:01] so ... nobody knows how to uninstall a font? [except from the command line] ? [23:02] lustic: i think it's half installed or something, ii means installed iU i forgot [23:02] ah, it means it's still unconfigured [23:02] sudo apt-get remove gens , this has seemed to work [23:02] yeah [23:03] cool thanks tho, helped me get to the bottom of it [23:03] !info gens [23:03] Package gens does not exist in utopic [23:03] Hi, I'm having a problem with rsync [23:03] no problem [23:03] it's off my system now, ( : cheers [23:03] I always come here when things get tricky, always works, ciao ! [23:03] I keep getting "@ERROR: auth failed on module sync [23:03] rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1653) [sender=3.1.0] [23:03] " after entering the password [23:05] I have a user who is a member of a group (winusers), and the group permissions show r-x, but he can't open the directory...any ideas? [23:05] EriC^^, made it even worse, I reverted it back [23:06] EriC^^, it's like the screen primary was stretched across the two monitors [23:07] Toadlips2: did you just add him to the group? [23:07] EriC^^: I added him a while ago...a couple of reboots ago...I can verify that he's part of the group [23:08] what directories are leading to the directory? does he have "x" access to them? [23:08] Anyone on here with any experience with rsync? [23:08] Iam still ticked about why the they removed the twinview configuration option out of nvidia settings. Why fix something that ain't broken??? [23:08] Brilliant [23:09] i might've just been wrong [23:09] put it in your xorg.conf and see if it works [23:09] if you don't have one, create it === dark is now known as ASHER1 [23:10] Toadlips2: ^^ [23:10] EriC^^: Yes, it looks like he does have access to all of them now, but I did just do that with a chown -R. There is a "+" on the one directory he can't get to... [23:10] Toadlips2: he owns all the directories before it? [23:11] still does he have "x" access to them? [23:11] EriC^^: Actually, the owner is root, and I changed the group to winusers (his group) [23:12] ok, what about the directories leading to it, does he have "x" ? [23:12] ( not ownership ) [23:12] Nevermind, I figured out the problem, just another error message with no useful information [23:13] Eric^^: Actually, the very first directory is owned by root and the group is also root, not winusers. He can access that directory, though, so I'm not sure that's a problem? [23:13] if he can cd to it it's not a problem [23:14] you can check what the "+" is about with getfacl [23:16] EriC^^: you might be onto something! When I do the getfacl, it shows the group, but then it lists some more stuff and shows group::--- [23:16] EriC^^: I should mention that I mount this filesystem in the fstab [23:17] which dir is this? [23:17] Toadlips2: the "+" at the end of the permissions. That usually means an ACL is in force and controlling permissions. [23:17] EriC^^: it's the /media/ directory [23:18] i see [23:20] EriC^^: Here's the fstab mounting: /dev/disk/by-uuid/2e0f1bbe-db78-432f-9cb4-c36e00b08892 /media/corey/MOFOSTO auto nosuid,nodev,nofail [23:21] Bashing-om: Yes, it does seem that the ACL is enforcing some permissions that are causing some trouble...question is whether or not it's something to do with the way I mount the filesystem in the fstab... [23:21] Toadlips2: have you tried without the CAPS mountpoint? [23:22] cara nao concigo stala o flecheplae [23:22] !br | cicero_ [23:22] cicero_: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português.

[23:23] arvut: well, the mounting works for me, the problem I have is related to security...it seems there is an ACL attached to this file...I'm guessing I can remove that ACL, but will it come back next time I mount it? [23:23] Toadlips2: if you want you can add the group, sudo setfacl -m g:winusers:rx /media/ [23:23] jag tycker precis som du, att: gentoo > ubuntu [23:24] jiopç890çp7 [23:24] !ot | arvut [23:24] arvut: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[23:26] has anyone used the mad scientist script for getting juniper network connect working ? [23:27] EriC^^, I think Iam gonna call it a day I appreciate your help though. I can use the screens that's what matters most I think I'll stick with what I got for now. [23:28] nmatrix9: ok :) [23:28] sup? [23:29] Eric^^: thanks, that seemed to work! winuser can now access that directory! Do you think that ACL will change at all next time I boot up and that filesystem is mounted? Just want to make sure it's a permantent change. [23:29] ermahgerd my linux broke [23:29] help [23:29] Toadlips2: i think it should be fine [23:31] Toadlips2: it's permanent [23:32] Can someone please look at this pastebin and tell me what I am doing wrong? I am trying to untar this file so I can install it. http://pastebin.com/CcihbJEu Thanks to anyone that can take the time to help. [23:32] Eric^^: Thanks, I appreciate it! Still having my original problem, though...can't access the samba share using that user...I figured the first step would be to make sure the user had permissions to the directory! I can see the share from my win7 machine, but it says access denied when I enter credentials. [23:34] anyone know if this error if anything to fuss about if i'm not using kerberos over nfs... RPC: AUTH_GSS upcall failed. Please check user daemon is running. [23:34] Dragin: no z [23:34] no z? [23:34] tar -xvf grig... [23:34] ahhh [23:35] thanks daftykins =) [23:35] np! [23:35] that did it =) [23:35] Dragin: when you're unsure with command switches, a quick "man tar" will let you check each of them :) [23:35] (q to quit from the man page reader) [23:35] ok [23:36] * EriC^^ is confused, isn't z for gunzip? [23:40] EriC^^: the z was fine in this case but not needed, the problem was the order of the arguments (xvfz) since f takes the filename [23:40] trism: ah ok, thanks :) [23:41] EriC^^: Thanks for your help today! You got me one step closer...gotta go put some lights on the tree. Have a good one!!

[23:44] bekks: FWIW usb-creator gave me error loading the bootloader on a FAT32 USB drive, maybe I should have used dd after all. I had an earlier bootable linux on the USB drive, maybe usb creator found the existing bootloader. [23:44] nmatrix9: no idea man [23:44] guess I'll reboot and see what happens [23:45] hello everybody [23:45] I might need some help with some Bluetooth prolem [23:45] problem* [23:45] Hey, my laptop won't come out of sleep properly, and I was wondering if anyone knew anything that might be causing it? What I do is close the lid, wait for my laptop to go into sleep/hibernate/whatever mode, open the lid(?). I get greeted by a black screen. If I move my mouse, I get to xfce's login screen. Once I login, I am greeted by yet another black screen, but I can't get out of that one. [23:45] not my problem [23:46] I have a trusted device, that's not reconnecting after switching it off [23:46] Obnoxious: i had that with the proprietary drivers [23:46] I can provide logs/outputs of whatever, I just need to know what to give you guys. [23:46] It's a wii U pro controller. It's driving me nuts. [23:47] Obnoxious: try the open source driver if you want [23:47] EriC^^: Hm, I see. Is there a way to completely get rid of the proprietary drivers? I installed them to (try to) fix HDMI, but it still isn't working. I'll hmmmm, try that, then. [23:47] Obnoxious: open the dash > additional drivers === MeltedLux is now known as MeltedDed [23:48] Also, unrelated to the whole sleep thing, does HDMI out work properly with the open source drivers? === JZTech101 is now known as JZTech106 === JZTech106 is now known as JZTech101 [23:49] Obnoxious: yeah [23:49] at least here [23:49] Okay good, then I guess my problem with HDMI has nothing to do with my drivers.
