[00:06] <dm7freek> where does automounter log?
[00:07] <gizmoman1> I need some help
[00:08] <daftykins> gizmoman1: best way is to start by asking a question
[00:08] <gizmoman1> ok
[00:08] <gizmoman1> here it goes
[00:09] <M0STO_Spencer> Gizmo....whats ypour question
[00:09] <gizmoman1> i have a hard drive with LVM set up
[00:09] <gizmoman1> i used it to store music
[00:09] <gizmoman1> it was setup so i could mount it on a mac using the ATA over ethernet protocol
[00:10] <gizmoman1> i did so and partitioned it using GPT
[00:10] <gizmoman1> i can see the partitions using gdisk
[00:10] <gizmoman1> but i am unable to mount the partition
[00:11] <gizmoman1> so my question is how do i find the path to the GPT partition i want so that i can use the mount command
[00:11] <Bashing-om> dm7freek: One should see entries in /var/log/dmesg and /var/log/syslog .
[00:11] <dm7freek> bekks: ok ty
[00:12] <dm7freek> Bashing-om: ^
[00:12] <dm7freek> bekks: sry
[00:12] <gizmoman1> using gdisk/parted it tells me Disk "/dev/san/music"
[00:13] <gizmoman1> using gdisk/parted it tells me Disk "/dev/san/music" has two partitions
[00:13] <hikenboot_> gizmoman1 looks like you had no luck getting ATA over ethernet working. QUESTION: can ata over ethernet mount raw devices like /dev/sda or /dev/sdb as apposed to /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2?
[00:13] <gizmoman1> no ATA over ethernet worked great
[00:14] <hikenboot_> AWSOME, then can you shed some light on my question?
[00:14] <hikenboot_> I am tryin to do a similar thing with NBD
[00:14] <gizmoman1> a better way to pose my question is: having completely stopped using AOE, how can i mount the drive on the original server as a local drive
[00:14] <gizmoman1> yes
[00:15] <gizmoman1> AOE can make available any block device i think
[00:16] <gizmoman1> what is NBD?
[00:16] <hikenboot_> gizmoman1, your saying that returning to a normal setup it no longer works...thats not good news for me!
[00:16] <hikenboot_> Network Boot Disk I think is what it stans for
[00:16] <gizmoman1> ah
[00:16] <hikenboot_> stand/stans
[00:16] <gizmoman1> ok
[00:16] <Vera> Hi, can I ask for some help?
[00:16] <hikenboot_> problem is I cant get it to actuall do operations on the remote disk like create partitions and stuff or fdisk
[00:16] <gizmoman1> well in my case one time ubuntu actually auto mounted the partition in question
[00:17] <gizmoman1> and the data was fine
[00:17] <hikenboot_> then what happened
[00:17] <gizmoman1> i rebooted
[00:18] <hikenboot_> can you access the disk through a live cd like gparted live cd or debian live cd or ubuntu live cd?
[00:18] <gizmoman1> haven't tried that, but i suspect the time the disk did mount was under some sort of recover mode
[00:19] <Bashing-om> Vera: Fingers not broke, so I guess you can ask a question .
[00:19] <gizmoman1> parted will show me the disk
[00:19] <Vera> Thanks, Bashing-om! (Sorry, I'm brand new on Ubuntu) I have a problem with all the icons on the menu to the left being "cut" by a diagonal shape, or an X (it varies). The same goes for the black line at the top. I can't find anybody else with this problem online. Does anybody have a clue what can help?
[00:19] <hikenboot_> it sounds like something got lost does the volume have lvm on it
[00:19] <gizmoman1> yes
[00:20] <Vera> I've got a screenshot of the problem, but I guess I can't share this on irc?
[00:20] <hikenboot_> try access it from the gparted live cd the testing one ...it supports lvm out of the box
[00:20] <gizmoman1> i have no doubt that will work
[00:20] <hikenboot_> try alt f2 and access it from a console
[00:21] <Bashing-om> !paste | Vera
[00:21] <hikenboot_> what do you see when you reboot...do you see grub
[00:21] <Vera> Thanks!
[00:21] <gizmoman1> no
[00:21] <mjayk> Vera: have you tried to theme youur ubuntu previously ? and a screenshot would help :)
[00:22] <hikenboot_> is it a dos or GPT
[00:22] <gizmoman1> GPT
[00:22] <hikenboot_> ouch
[00:22] <gizmoman1> it was partitioned by a mac
[00:23] <hikenboot_> have you tried that mac boot loader...trying to remember it name something like fix it or damned if i can remember
[00:23] <gizmoman1> i created a blank logical volume and shared it over AOE
[00:23] <gizmoman1> the mac partitioned it
[00:23] <dreamcat4> is there an apt- cmd to delete user settings / cache files along with a pkg ?
[00:24] <hikenboot_> yes there is a recovery boot loader that detects mac windows and linux parititons sorry I dont remember what it is called but it saved me on a mac
[00:24] <gizmoman1> is there a way to mount a partition using the partition unique GUID to mount
[00:24] <hikenboot_> on a tripple boot
[00:24] <dreamcat4> nevermind, don't need it now.
[00:24] <gizmoman1> it shows up in parted
[00:24] <Vera> Is it allowed to share a Facebook-link to show the screenshot?
[00:25] <Bashing-om> dreamcat4: There is "apt-get purge <package_name>" , however, will not remove files in one's /home directory .
[00:25] <gizmoman1> in other words: i have a disk path "/dev/san/music" it has two partitions
[00:25] <bubbasaures> !screenshot | Vera
[00:25] <gizmoman1> i want to mount the second
[00:26] <bubbasaures> Vera, If it is not facebook associated, use a regular image site.
[00:27] <Vera> Ok. Is there a image site that I son't need to make an account to use?
[00:28] <bubbasaures> Vera, IN the bots message twice. http://imgur.com/
[00:28] <Vera> Sorry, I'm an idiot! Confused and tired. Here's a link: http://imgur.com/Og4JwA9
[00:28] <hikenboot_> hold on gimonan1
[00:29] <bubbasaures> you may not know ubottu is a  bot we use for passing info Vera ; )
[00:29] <hikenboot_> gizmoman1,
[00:29] <mjayk> now that is weird Vera
[00:30] <Vera> This was the first picture I got as I started the computer after install. I tried restrarting, reinstalling, changing screen-settings etc, no use.
[00:30] <bubbasaures> Vera, This 14.04?
[00:30] <Vera> Yep. bubbasaures
[00:30] <Bashing-om> Vera: Do not panic, you are in good hands, we will get through this.
[00:30] <hikenboot_> gizmoman1, does this help http://paste.ubuntu.com/9374602/
[00:30] <Vera> Thank you so much, Bashing-om! :)
[00:31] <gizmoman1> what does -o do in mount?
[00:31] <bubbasaures> Vera, I would try a reset first it may be that simple. http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[00:31] <hikenboot_> options
[00:31] <hikenboot_> I hope that is helpful
[00:32] <Vera> I'll try thtat, bubbasaures. :)
[00:32] <hikenboot_> perhaps you can share with me the ATA over ethernet config..cant seem to get nbd to wrok to save my life
[00:32] <mjayk> Vera: what version of ubuntu, graphics card and drivers are you using ?
[00:32] <hikenboot_> it acts like its working but i cant operate on the disk
[00:32] <bubbasaures> Vera, Do a reboot after the commands.
[00:32] <hikenboot_> and its not in read only mode
[00:32] <Bashing-om> Vera: +1 for bubbasaures . Advise us of results.
[00:33] <gizmoman1> hikenboot_ , it says i must specify filesystem
[00:34] <hikenboot_> -t ext4 is probably the file system or ext3 or a mac file system which i think is hpfs or something
[00:34] <hikenboot_> ?
[00:34] <gizmoman1> doesn't help
[00:34] <gizmoman1> i have the hfsplus drives installed
[00:36] <gizmoman1> i can help you with AOE
[00:36] <gizmoman1> i remember it being straight forward to setup the server
[00:36] <gizmoman1> the initiator side is sometimes iffy
[00:36] <hikenboot_> refit is what its called but there is a newer version of it
[00:37] <hikenboot_> a spinoff project
[00:37] <hikenboot_> refit is out of date...the newer one is recent
[00:37] <gizmoman1> hikenboot, here's the thing, i know that my system should be able to mount the drive
[00:38] <gizmoman1> i just need to point it to the right path
[00:38] <hikenboot_> its called refined
[00:38] <Vera> Ooops, I fell out.
[00:38] <hikenboot_> right i understand
[00:38] <gizmoman1> eg. when i try and mount /dev/mapper/san-music (which is the name of the LVM)
[00:38] <gizmoman1> it tells me there's no HFS filesystem there
[00:38] <hikenboot_> lvscan and pvscan
[00:38] <gizmoman1> even though parted shows it clearly
[00:39] <Vera> I tried this method provided by bubbasaures: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[00:39] <gizmoman1> hikenboot, the LV/PV shows up correctly
[00:39] <hikenboot_> ok
[00:40] <bubbasaures> Vera, Did you run all the commands and reboot?
[00:40] <gizmoman1> looks like the LV is on /dev/dm-0
[00:40] <Vera> Yes, the furst two, but when I wrote the second command, "setsid unity", it just gave me a pink screen, and then didn't react no matter what I did. I had to reboot again to come back.
[00:41] <bubbasaures> Vera, So you did not get this one run unity --reset-icons
[00:41] <hikenboot_> gizmoman1, did you see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/hfsplus
[00:42] <hikenboot_> was it raid gizmoman1
[00:42] <Vera> No, I lost everything after running the second command. Should I try again, or do I just risk the whole screen going blank (pink) again?
[00:43] <gizmoman1> i did see that, no help
[00:43] <gizmoman1> it was not raid
[00:43] <gizmoman1> one full disk (add)
[00:43] <hikenboot_> dm is usually involved with raid
[00:43] <gizmoman1> (sdd)
[00:43] <gizmoman1> all my LVMs have dm devices
[00:43] <timvisher-xubunt> the key repeat rate for my internal keyboard and my external keyboard are different. how do i fix that?
[00:43] <bubbasaures> Vera, I think you fine on the first two, a weird screen response is not uncommon, try this command  unity --reset-icons    and logout than back in.
[00:43] <gizmoman1> e.g. one called datanode
[00:44] <bubbasaures> you're
[00:44] <gizmoman1> datanode exists at /dev/dm-1
[00:44] <gizmoman1> it spans 3 physical drives
[00:44] <Vera> Do you mean to try that command without the first two?
[00:44] <gizmoman1> not in raid
[00:44] <bubbasaures> Vera, Yeah.
[00:45] <Vera> Thanks
[00:45] <hikenboot_> mount -t hfsplus ?
[00:45] <gizmoman1> yup
[00:45] <hikenboot_> yup as in that works or yup you have tried?
[00:46] <Vera> bubbasaures, it didn't help, but at least no weird reaction.
[00:46] <gizmoman1> dmesg says no HFS filesystem found on dm-0
[00:46] <gizmoman1> yup i tried, doesn't work
[00:46] <bubbasaures> Vera, You logged out than back in?
[00:46] <hikenboot_> is there fake raid in the system by chance? not sure if mac even has such a thing?
[00:47] <bubbasaures> Vera, The command that that was a problem is just a restart for the desktop.
[00:47] <Jordan_U> gizmoman1: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" and "sudo blkid".
[00:47] <gizmoman1> hikenboot_ sort of
[00:48] <Vera_> bubbasaures, sure i did (at least now...) Still didn't help.
[00:48] <Bashing-om> Vera_: bubbasaures Is the tool installed ? What returns -> dpkg -l dconf-tools <- . Be a good reason why 'dconf' is not working .
[00:48] <Vera_> When I tried the command, though, I got a lot of ERRORs
[00:49] <Vera_> Sorry, Bashing-om, I didn't wuite understand that.
[00:49] <gizmoman1> Jordan: http://pastebin.com/22fr7pzr
[00:50] <Bashing-om> Vera_: No problem, in the terminal when you ask the system by typing dpkg -l dconf-tools , what does the system tell you ?
[00:51] <Vera_> I don't know if it matters, but it's not only the icons on the left that are weird. Also the dark line on the top of the screen, where the menu is, is cut diagonally.
[00:52] <zacnomore> Hello
[00:52] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Yeah, And we are trtying to reset the icons and desktop back to defaults . One needs the tool 'dconf-tools-' to do so .
[00:53] <Jordan_U> gizmoman1: What is the output of "sudo kpartx /dev/mapper/san-music"?
[00:54] <gizmoman1> san-music1 : 0 409600 /dev/mapper/san-music 40
[00:54] <gizmoman1> san-music2 : 0 1464475568 /dev/mapper/san-music 409640
[00:54] <gizmoman1> Jordan_U (got it! thanks)
[00:54] <Jordan_U> gizmoman1: Great, so now let's actually add those devices with "sudo kpartx -a /dev/mapper/san-music" (assuming that /dev/mapper/sans-music2 doesn't already exist).
[00:55] <gizmoman1> Jordan_U done
[00:55] <gizmoman1> YESS
[00:56] <gizmoman1> Jordan_U: that did it
[00:56] <gizmoman1> i mounted san-music2
[00:56] <gizmoman1> can you tell me what kpartx is
[00:56] <gizmoman1> and why that had to be done?
[00:57] <gizmoman1> sorry ill just check the man pages!
[00:58] <bubbasaures> Vera_, There is an app called pastebinit that will let you run a command and post it in a pastebin automatically and gives you the url to gives us, would that help?
[00:58] <Vera_> Bashing-om : http://paste.ubuntu.com/9374860/
[00:58] <timvisher-xubunt> huh. looks like there's about as much interest here as there is on this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-settings/+bug/1180120
[00:58] <Bashing-om> Vera_: In my terminal: sysop@1404mini:~$ dpkg -l dconf-tools yields: dpkg-query: no packages found matching dconf-tools . So, I know the package (tool) is not installed on my system. Is your result the same ?
[00:59] <bubbasaures> Bashing-om, Good eye, that dconf command is the basic fix in the set.
[01:00] <Bashing-om> bubbasaures: I still learning, even after all these years !
[01:01] <Vera_> Bubbasaures and Bashing-on : Just to complicate I have Ubuntu in norwegian, so I don't think it would help you to see my commands?
[01:02] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I can not make heads or tails from the last output. Let's try it like this: dpkg -l dconf-tools | pastebinit . and pass back that resulting URL .
[01:03] <squinty> dpkg -l dconf-tools | grep "ii  "
[01:03] <bubbasaures> Vera_, Here is mine I have dconf, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9374889/
[01:03] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I expect the format to be the same, and we can muddle through the Norwegian language.
[01:04] <Jordan_U> Vera_: export LANG=C # Will make all of the commands following it in that terminal output English.
[01:04] <Vera_> Yes, it looked like bubbasaures response! Hurrah!
[01:05] <Vera_> Thanks, Jordan! Where should I type that?
[01:05] <Jordan_U> gizmoman1: The manual should give you a good idea of what kpartx is, the reason that it's needed is that tools like udev that would normally automatically create device nodes for partitioned drives don't expect to find partition tables on LVM volumes and so don't automatically probe them when looking for device nodes to create. kpartx is also often useful when attempting to mount disk image files for the same reason.
[01:05] <Jordan_U> Vera_: On its own line in the terminal.
[01:08] <Vera_> bashing-om and bubbasaures : now I got the response in englisg, but it won't for the love of anything be copied to ubuntu pastebin
[01:09] <hephaestus_rg> Hello I've made a node app into a binary, and I can't get it working on my Ubuntu server
[01:09] <hephaestus_rg> https://github.com/hayksaakian/hellonar?files=1
[01:09] <Jordan_U> Vera_: What is the exact command you ran?
[01:09] <hephaestus_rg> It works on my local 32 bit Ubuntu xonputer
[01:10] <Vera_> Bashing-om and bubbasaures : Just kidding, I made it! Here's mye genious work... :http://paste.ubuntu.com/9374977/
[01:10] <systemsource> Hi
[01:12] <Bashing-om> Vera_: The tool IS NOT installed. in terminal install it thus: sudo apt-get install dconf-tools .
[01:13] <Vera_> Bashing-om : It asks for mye password, but wont let me either write it or copy it in
[01:14] <hikenboot_> Jordan_U, have you ever worked with ndb?
[01:15] <Vera_> Bashing-om _ But when I try to type it, the blinking of the marker-thingy stops.
[01:15] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Sorry, fixed it...
[01:16] <bubbasaures> Vera_, Passwords do not show in the terminal.
[01:16] <Bashing-om> Vera_: When in terminal you type tyour password, there is no response - secirity measure . enter your password blindly and hit the enter key. It will take !
[01:16] <Vera_> Vera = abvious n00b...
[01:17] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Not a problem, we were all new at one time .. there is a learning curve, we have all been there.
[01:17] <Vera_> Bashing-om thanks, you're very kind!
[01:19] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Some will not have that view point of my disposition .// Are you ready to proceed ? dconf-tools is now installed ?
[01:20] <Vera_> Bashing-om: I think it is. It's been saying "processing" some times,
[01:20] <Vera_> Bashing-om: and now "setting up" the dconf-editor and the dconf-tools
[01:21] <Jordan_U> hikenboot_: No. Why?
[01:21] <Bashing-om> Vera_: We will await for the installation to complete.
[01:22] <user1_> hello everyone thanks for eveyone who helped me
[01:22] <Vera_> Bashing-om Just hope it will. Doesn't seem like the computer is doing mush.
[01:22] <user1_> hi bashing thanks for the help the other say
[01:22] <user1_> day
[01:23] <Bashing-om> user1_: Hey, glad things work out .. Help here is what we do .
[01:23] <user1_> yeah i read up with and it worked no more low res
[01:23] <user1_> gone from 640x480 to 1024x768
[01:24] <Bashing-om> Vera_: patience ( depending on p[rocessor speed ) may take a bit to finish up .
[01:24] <user1_> i know have a choice of resolutions
[01:25] <Bashing-om> user1_: SIS graphics are a pain, but can be dealt with -> time effort and trial and error .
[01:25] <user1_> yea bashing ur right but your help was great
[01:25] <user1_> much appreicated thanks bashing
[01:26] <daftykins> user1_: wow you took a while on that one :)
[01:26] <Bashing-om> user1_: :) , you will pay it forward !
[01:27] <user1_> whats chromebooks like
[01:28] <user1_> while with what daft
[01:28] <jkllk> Hello, I am trying to gather reasons why a large data center would want to use Ubuntu OpenStack vs Eucalyptus or VMware cloud
[01:28] <jkllk> Are there any specifics advantages?
[01:28] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Still processing the install ? Is the computer back to a prompt ?
[01:30] <Vera_> Bashing-om : It still says "Setting up dconf-editor (0.20.0-1) ..." and the same for dconf-tools.
[01:31] <Bashing-om> Vera_: UnGood ! .. Not sure what to advise at this time .. I really hate to interrupt any type of install .
[01:32] <Vera_> Bashing-om : I'm honestly not sure if it is installing at all. It doesn't seem to be working.
[01:32] <user1_> is there themes on here
[01:33] <Vera_> Bashing-om : It's been unresponsive before: When I clicked restart after the initiall OS install, it just went black and "limp"
[01:33] <xangua> !themes | user1_
[01:33] <user1_> thank u
[01:33] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Had to hold the power-button to restart it. Maybe it has a thing for getting hung up?
[01:34] <Bashing-om> Vera_: 5 minutes is a long time. Should have completed by this time. Makes me question if your system is stable .
[01:34] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Hmm, is there any way I can check that?
[01:34] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Power button is a means of very last resort, there are better ways to bring the system down - gracefully .
[01:35] <OerHeks> try control + z first.
[01:35] <blackmatrix_ny> whats the best mysql client you'd recommend that works good on Ubuntu ?
[01:36] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Didn't know any other way when the screen was black and the computer was unresponsive, but I'll be glad to learn. :)
[01:37] <Vera_> Bashing-om : The computer is a hand-me-down, though, so I don't know much about it.
[01:37] <Bashing-om> Vera_: What results from terminal command -> sudo apt-get -f install , sudo dpkg -C <- which will portray the state of the package manager . No respose here is a good thing .
[01:37] <systemsource> hi
[01:37] <Vera_> Bashing-om Is that two commands or one?
[01:38] <systemsource> hi
[01:38] <systemsource> hi
[01:38] <systemsource> hi
[01:38] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Good tutorial to gracefully bring the system down : http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/31818/what-to-do-when-a-linux-desktop-freezes .
[01:38] <systemsource> hello
[01:38] <systemsource> help the runig
[01:38] <Bashing-om> Vera_: That is 2 commnads ( the ',' to separate the two commands ) .
[01:38] <Vera_> Bashing-om Thanks!
[01:39] <systemsource> 2 commads
[01:39] <systemsource> yes /n
[01:40] <Vera_> Bashing-om : This was the response for the first command: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375332/
[01:40] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Looking at http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375332/ .
[01:41] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Not real bad yet, what does 'dpkg' advise ?
[01:41] <Vera_> Bashing-om Sorry didn't understand your last message there.
[01:42] <Vera_> Bashing-om The second command gave no response
[01:43] <Bashing-om> Vera_: OK, in terminal do 3 commands: sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade , sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .
[01:43] <reisio> they're all so distinct! :p
[01:44] <zykotick9> Bashing-om: i'm curious, do you know of any reason to run upgrade prior to dist-upgrade?  isn't that kinda redundant?
[01:45] <reisio> unfortunately, they are not the same command
[01:45] <Bashing-om> zykotick9: Agreed, redundant, but I do have paranoia . Can not hurt . And I like to see results .
[01:45] <zykotick9> Bashing-om: fair enough.  thanks.
[01:46] <Vera_> Bashing-om : The second command left me with a lot of "setting up" things that only have "..." after them, no "done". Should I wait before I run the last command?
[01:47] <hikenboot_> Jordan_U, trying to get it to actually work
[01:47] <Vera_> Bashing-om Also: In windows I sometimes used the program TeamViewer when my mother needed computer help. Is that possible to use on ubuntu?
[01:47] <Bashing-om> Vera_: wait .. may take a bit to install what is to be updated .. ( bet there are kernels to install ) installing kernels is the job of ' dist-upgrade ' .
[01:48] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Yes, teamviwer is available in 'buntu . I do not use it but many do .
[01:49] <cwsistem> boa  noite
[01:49] <Vera_> Bashing-om Thanks, good to know.
[01:51] <user1_> how do u check for updates
[01:52] <OerHeks> user1_, use the update button on your unitypanel
[01:56] <user1_> aint got button
[01:58] <Vera_> Bashing-om Is this normal installation time, or are we past that? (12 min)
[02:00] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Again depending on processor speed and the internet link speed. but 12 minutes is too long for 9 updates . Is the terminal not telling you what the system is doing ?
[02:00] <user1_> can i put the bar with clock and suff on bottom
[02:01] <OerHeks> user1_, on what ubuntu desktop ?
[02:01] <Vera_> bashing-om : This is whaqt it says: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375538/
[02:01] <user1_> xubuntu
[02:01] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Looking at your http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375538/ .
[02:01] <OerHeks> in unity you cannot move the toppanel to the bottom, that is correct.
[02:03] <OerHeks> user1_, xubuntu, Right Click on the Panel > Go to Panel > Panel Preferences > Un-Check “Lock panel” and Grab the panel and Drag the panel to the bottom.
[02:04] <OerHeks> and in you xubuntu menu, sure there is an update button/tool
[02:04] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I do not know else than to wait and see, That output however certainly tells why there may be problems with the icons (compiz) .
[02:05] <Vera_> Bashin-om : You mean because the whole computer is bad/unstable/crappy?
[02:05] <user1_> done thank u
[02:06] <Bashing-om> Vera_: To soon to say . But IF and I do say IF ' sudo apt-get update ' fails to complete, there is a serious problem.
[02:07] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Ok, so I'll just wait and see? Is there any way for me to check if the computer is working with this at all?
[02:10] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Is the hard drive thrashing ? Any LED indicators for Hard drive activity ? What is displayed on the terminal, What is the last thing the terminal relates that is processing ?
[02:12] <reisio> or is it megalodoning
[02:14] <Vera_> Bashing-om : http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375629/
[02:14] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Looking at your http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375629/ .
[02:16] <user1_> bashing how to check for updates and cant see a icon checkng for updates
[02:18] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Not good that the 'update' has not completed. May as well terminate. Do key combo ctl+c to terminate, Now let's see what the state of the package manager is ; sudo apt-get -f install , sudo dpkg -C .
[02:18] <x2xx3x> user1_ :   sudo apt-get update
[02:19] <user1_> k thank u
[02:19] <user1_> whats sudo and apt mean
[02:19] <FailBit> hallo
[02:19] <FailBit> user1_: sudo means 'elevated permissions'
[02:19] <FailBit> apt is a package manager
[02:19] <Vera_> Bashing-om - No response on the first sudo-command.
[02:19] <user1_> ok thanks
[02:20] <Seven_Six_Two> user1_, sudo is "switch user" and either gives you admin temporarily, or allows you to switch to another user, if you have permission
[02:20] <Seven_Six_Two> lol..I described su... nm
[02:20] <Vera_> Bashing-om sorry, there was response, just nedded my password first
[02:20] <FailBit> Seven_Six_Two: you can do that with sudo too
[02:20] <FailBit> Seven_Six_Two: "sudo -s" is almost the same as "su"
[02:21] <FailBit> Seven_Six_Two: "sudo -u $newuser -s" is like "login" or "su $newuser"
[02:21] <Vera_> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375737/
[02:21] <FailBit> anyway
[02:21] <Seven_Six_Two> FailBit, interesting. I've never used it like that.
[02:21] <FailBit> I came here for a reason other than to answer questions. :P
[02:21] <FailBit> I read an example out of the time(1) manpage
[02:22] <FailBit> and it didn't work
[02:22] <FailBit> liam@liam-Desktop:~$ time -f "\t%E real,\t%U user,\t%S sys" ls
[02:22] <FailBit> -f: command not found
[02:22] <sonetea> su -c is also almost the same as sudo :)
[02:22] <FailBit> real 0m0.054s
[02:22] <Bashing-om> Vera_: "that learning curve" I hope you see " 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. " from 'apt-get -f install' .
[02:22] <Vera_> Bashing-om but no response to the sudo dpkg -C
[02:22] <FailBit> sonetea: not really
[02:22] <Vera_> Bashing-om , Yep, I saw that! :)
[02:22] <FailBit> because it doesn't copy the env
[02:22] <sonetea> yeah
[02:22] <FailBit> anyway
[02:23] <Vera_> Bashing-om Hope that' means there's nothing lacking?
[02:23] <Seven_Six_Two> FailBit, iirc time is also an internal bash command. try the full path of the time binary. /sbin/time or whatever
[02:23] <FailBit> Seven_Six_Two, aha, thanks
[02:23] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Looking good ! .. now what results -> sudo apt-get upgrade <- ? .
[02:23] <Vera_> Bashing-om Since it's 0 not upgraded, i mean
[02:23] <FailBit> should have checked that first… :P
[02:24] <Vera_> Bashing-om : 0 of everything
[02:24] <Seven_Six_Two> FailBit, /usr/bin/time in mint...probably same for you
[02:24] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Yep, looking good . Checking status with the "upgrade" it too should be 0's .
[02:24] <FailBit> Seven_Six_Two: correct
[02:24] <FailBit> simple command to check
[02:24] <FailBit> "which time"
[02:25] <user1_> any gd games on ubuntu
[02:25] <Seven_Six_Two> FailBit, now you have more time for questions  ;)
[02:25] <Vera_> Bashing-om : 0 on everything on the sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:25] <Seven_Six_Two> user1_, steam. minecraft. WOW
[02:25] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Confirm that you do not see ' held back ' in the 'upgrade' request.
[02:26] <daftykins> user1_: for on an SIS card? :P
[02:27] <Vera_> Bashing-om: If I understood you right: The computer didn't answer with the phrase "held back" any time after my last command.
[02:27] <EuaD> what's a good text editor for writing python code
[02:27] <EuaD> for xubuntu
[02:27] <user1_> some must work basic ones
[02:27] <Bashing-om> Vera_: OK, try again sudo apt-get install dconf-tools .
[02:27] <cwsistem> boa  noite
[02:28] <user1_> not expecting cod to run
[02:28] <Seven_Six_Two> user1_, are you looking for card games, stuff like that? pysol is good for solitaire.
[02:29] <Guest69080> slt
[02:29] <Vera_> Bashing-om : It says that "dconf-tools" is already the newest version", and then again 0 on everything. :D
[02:29] <Guest69080> slt
[02:29] <ianorlin> I like using vim but that is hard to learn
[02:30] <sunco50> okay, so I logged on and my Moka theme is broken. Any theories?
[02:30] <ianorlin> mousepad which you already have installed does syntax highlighting
[02:31] <Bashing-om> Vera_: OK, Now I want that you reboot, and at the GUI login keycombo clt+alt+F1 to get a console. Advise when you are rebooted and logged into the system at this console, and we try and get the desk top back to default settings.
[02:34] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Sorry, that was a bit steep. I restart, but when do I press the key combo? And what is the console? (Sorry)
[02:35] <Seven_Six_Two> Vera_, console is text-only screen. You can access them at any time with alt+ctrl_F[1-6]
[02:35] <Vera_> Bashing-om : Googled GUI. Does that mean when I'm supposed to log on to ubuntu, or when I see my desktop?
[02:37] <x2xx3x> Vera_: You press that combo at the "loginscreen" --> do not login
[02:37] <Seven_Six_Two> Vera_, before logging on, press ctrl+alt+F1 and the graphical login screen will go away. you'll be left with white text on black background.
[02:37] <Vera_> Seven_six_two : and x2xx3xThanks! :D
[02:37] <x2xx3x> ;)
[02:38] <Vera_> But then, Bashing-om , how do I find you again when I'm at/in/on the console? (Sorry if this is very stupid!)
[02:38] <Bashing-om> Vera_: There are 2 means to get a (C)ommnad (L)ine (I)interface . One being a true terminal, the other is known as a 'console' For this exercise it is best to use the console, because Xserver is started then. So where you normally would login to the system at the GUI login screen instead press the keys ctl+alt+F1 .. this will start the console.
[02:40] <Vera_> Thanks, Bashing-on .:) So what do I do from there, once I'm in the console?
[02:40] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Are you working on the same system as you have your IRC client running in ? - In any event I will still be here when you reboot - once can start another instance of a console with key combo ctl+alt+F2 and start the IRC client in console #2 .
[02:42] <Bashing-om> Vera_:  To reset your icons and desk top to defaults: dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ , unity --reset-icons , setsid unity . Should workie great and last long time .
[02:42] <Vera_> Bashing-on Aha! (facepalm) I can try and get mye ancient laptop running!
[02:43] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Be aware, that if that lap top is too old, will not run unity ! .. We be looking at installing a ligher distribution ( Lubuntu ) .
[02:44] <union-hive> Vera_: or #!
[02:45] <reisio> GNOME needs more a-zconf's
[02:45] <Vera_> Bashing-om , the Ubuntu-machine is an old desktop. But I'll go on my ancient Windows-laptop to keep in contact with you here on the chat, while I reboot the Ubuntu-machine and go to the dreaded console. :)
[02:47] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Let us make sure that the machine will support unity ! do: /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p -f , ALL results must be yes .
[02:48] <Vera_> Bashing-om : It's "yes"es all the way! :D
[02:50] <mastr[x]bennett> my icons in the unity dash are missing. once I launch an app the icon shows up fine.
[02:50] <mastr[x]bennett> anyone know how to fix this?
[02:51] <squinty> right click on relevant icon and Lock on Launcher
[02:53] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Great, then reset the desk top to defauls as per the above ! .. : )
[02:55] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I have to feed my wood stove, be back in a bit.
[02:56] <Vera> Bashing-om : Great! Now I'm the Vera without the _. :)
[02:56] <mastr[x]bennett> squinty: I'm not interested in the icons on the launcher dock. i want them in the dash.
[02:56] <Vera_> To reset your icons and desk top to defaults: dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ , unity --reset-icons , setsid unity . Should workie great and last long time
[02:57] <acu> Bashing-om, thanks for hel
[02:57] <acu> how can I remove this add-apt-repository ppa:jon-severinsson/ffmpeg
[02:58] <acu> I added it, but it messes some other applications
[02:58] <reisio> man add-apt-repository
[02:58] <Chuck_Norris> acu: sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:jon-severinsson/ffmpeg && sudo apt-get update
[02:59] <acu> Chuck_Norris, thanks it worked
[02:59] <Chuck_Norris> acu: np
[02:59] <squinty> acu: for future reference you can add/delete ppa's in Software and Updates
[02:59] <Vera> Bashing-om or anyone: I tried to reboot to go to console as soon as I reached GUI, but There wasn't any option for logging on - I was logged on automatically. Is it too late to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to console now?
[03:01] <user1_> u think i could push my res more
[03:01] <acu> squinty: I have only a server with cli - I thought the repos are in /etc/apt/sources.list but it seem they are somewhere else - Chuck-Norris solutions woked
[03:01] <squinty> acu:  maybe you (and others) should be asking in ubuntu-server then.
[03:01] <bubbasaures> Vera, This is the install right, you would have had to set it as autologin?
[03:02]  * squinty is fed up with answering questions only to find that someone says "i only have command line because I am running a server"!
[03:02] <reisio> commands work better anyways :)
[03:03] <squinty> reisio: that is your personal opinion   not everyones
[03:03] <Spec> squinty: you should answer all questions with the CLI methods
[03:03] <reisio> it's measurable reality :)
[03:03] <Spec> problem sorted
[03:03] <squinty> Spec rubbish
[03:04] <reisio> best kind of rubbish
[03:04] <squinty> Spec: then don't bother using a gui... simple
[03:04] <squinty> ubuntu is gui
[03:04] <Spec> lolno
[03:04] <squinty> any modern os is gui based
[03:04]  * bubbasaures want's to quote marx here
[03:05] <reisio> mine isn't particularly sticky at all
[03:05] <squinty> Spec:  lol yes  been through years of this.  what you use is your own personal choice.  ubuntu-server is setup for server questions.
[03:07] <Bashing-om> user1_: Humm, If it is good why push on it ? but if ya must, what does -> xrandr <- advise for available resolutions ?
[03:08] <user1_> im happy with it with xp i could get 1280x800 im not to far away
[03:09] <Vera>  Hmm, this backfired, and I'm stuck. Bashing-om , could you give a peep when you come back?
[03:09] <user1_> min 640x48- max 1024x768
[03:10] <user1_> 3 res options just wondering could i add a resolution
[03:11] <Bashing-om> user1_: I "think" with that chip set  1024x768 is the best you can do .. Be happy to be corrected .
[03:11] <Bashing-om> Vera: I am back . There is another means to try and do this .. we boot to terminal rather than console .
[03:12] <user1_> its much better after u helped me and was wondering can u add res
[03:12] <Spec> user1_: you can try to force it: sudo xrandr -s 1280x800
[03:12] <Spec> that change won't persist across reboots, though
[03:14] <user1_> thanks just tried it size 1280x800 not found in modes
[03:14] <user1_> ill leave like this its not massive [ages anymore
[03:14] <user1_> pages
[03:15] <Bashing-om> user1_: Might be possible; have a read -> man cvt <- .
[03:15] <Spec> user1_: there is a way to force-add modes, but it is complex.
[03:15] <Spec> yes, with cvt and xrandr :-/
[03:15] <user1_> ok thanks bashing and spec
[03:17] <Vera> Bashing-om : Yay! http://paste.ubuntu.com/9376323/
[03:17] <Bashing-om> user1_: Like I say though, I know of no one who has pushed the resolution with your card past  1024x768 . With care, will not hurt to try with cvt. Do your homework .
[03:17] <user1_> google
[03:17] <Bashing-om> Vera: Looking at your http://paste.ubuntu.com/9376323/ .
[03:18] <daftykins> user1_: ^ it's SIS, i wouldn't bother trying to do anything gaming... it's a push for it to draw a desktop :P
[03:18] <user1_> run xp ok
[03:19] <user1_> looked at chromebook tonight
[03:19] <dair> Hi
[03:20] <daftykins> user1_: just so you know, ubuntu is a 'hack' to get running on them, so they're not expected to work reliably
[03:20] <Bashing-om> Vera: Are you certain for sure you are entering your correct password ? else we start looking at access rights to login !
[03:20] <dair> Does anyone know about Qt? There is a program i am running that requires qt libs
[03:20] <x2xx3x> Vera:And make sure "CapsLock" is not activated.
[03:21] <Vera> I just made one single password since install (actually during install) and it's painfully easy.
[03:21] <Bashing-om> !cookie | x2xx3x
[03:21] <Vera> No caps lock either.
[03:21] <bubbasaures> Vera, At that console you enter our user name than the password.
[03:21] <bubbasaures> your*
[03:22] <Vera> AAAAAAAhhhhhh! Thanks, bubbasaures!
[03:22] <user1_> this linux works ok not sloeing down
[03:22] <user1_> slowing
[03:22] <dair> Does anyone know about this error for qt libraries? undefined symbol: _ZN18QXmlDefaultHandlerC2Ev
[03:22] <Bashing-om> Vera: See, told ya we get through this - do not panic .
[03:23] <Vera> Jeej, the n00b is loos and logged in on console! :D What's next? :)
[03:23] <Vera> *loose
[03:23] <dair> i tried installing 5.1.1 but the program still doesnt work
[03:24] <sgo11> "Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS comes with five years of security and maintenance updates, guaranteed." what does this really mean? will programs/applications get the latest updates? thanks.
[03:24] <Bashing-om> Vera: dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ , unity --reset-icons , setsid unity . Reboot to see the effect ( yeah could start the xsession, just as soon reboot) .
[03:25] <xangua> sgo11: no, security updates
[03:25] <bubbasaures> sgo11, Yes, of what's in the ubuntu repos.
[03:25] <sgo11> ok. xangua said no and bubbasaures said yes. :)
[03:25] <user1_> thought lts was 3
[03:25] <bubbasaures> follow xangua
[03:26] <sgo11> bubbasaures, ok. only security updates, no applications updates?
[03:26] <bubbasaures> sgo11, I spoke before thinking of cut off points.
[03:26] <user1_> do i need libre and do i need a cleaner
[03:27] <Vera> Bashig-om , the first command got an error: "Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY"
[03:28] <vbgunz> I just installed ubuntu server 14.04 LTS, connected an external encrypted disk to it to copy some files but the following doesn't open up the partitions for me "cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdh5 sdh5_crypt" ... it puts a sdh5_crypt file in /dev/mapper but I'm supposed to see a ubuntu-root in there... what's happening?
[03:29] <Bashing-om> Vera: Surprised .. try as : DISPLAY=:0 dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ ; We give it a display .
[03:30] <daftykins> vbgunz: kernel give any clues? "dmesg | tail"
[03:30] <daftykins> don't know anything about encrypted volumes i'm afraid
[03:30] <Vera> Bashing-om ; then it says" Usage (new line) dconf reset [-f] PATH]  (Empty line) Reset a key or dir. -f i requested for dir." And then lists arguments for PATH, KEY and DIR.
[03:30] <Vera> OK, I'll try.
[03:31] <ianorlin> is the encyrpyion instaled stuff as that might not stay if not useed
[03:31] <semipro> ok so im an idiot
[03:31] <Vera> 0O
[03:32] <vbgunz> daftykins: hmm, not sure what it's saying but it is regarding the disk and it's showing up at sdb
[03:32] <daftykins> vbgunz: probably just stuff from earlier then, nevermind
[03:32] <Vera> Bashing-om : tried the code, nothing happened?
[03:32] <Vera> 0
[03:34] <Vera> Bashing-om Sorry, fell out of the chat (started typing on wrong keyboard...)
[03:34] <Bashing-om> Vera: A no response is a good thing in linux . The system doing as told and no back talk'n sas . If all commands have been run. reboot and let's see what the result is .
[03:34] <semipro> what happened is, i wiped my HDD, lost my windows 7 partitions..... so i installed Ubuntu on a flash drive and put it on my laptop, but when i tried to download chrome or even watch my netflix, i cant, and i tried to run my windows.exe files using wine but see i couldnt figure that out either, im more on the hardware side not software side XD
[03:35] <Bashing-om> semipro: A thought, one can run Netflix natively in the google-chrome browser  now .
[03:35] <Vera> Bashing-om : I only did the first of the commands, since it gave errors before I could do the rest. Shal I do the rest of them now?
[03:36] <bubbasaures> semipro, What ubuntu release?
[03:36] <Bobby_> Hello all. I am trying to get sound playback working on an Intel Bay Trail Tablet. I do not get a sound device with any firmware except for with 5339.B in the Intel ChromiumOS repo. With this firmware I only get static or no sound at all though. I have played with all the alsamixer settings and tried the ASUS t100 state file that is commonly used still with no sound.  what can I do to fix this?
[03:36] <Bashing-om> Vera: Yepper .. let's see how it goes .
[03:36] <LLighTT> hello, i have got a problem with vlc not ignoring the meta key aka win key, even though in the settings it shows that it assigned the key i.e. meta+down will only work when pressing down and not meta+down
[03:37] <semipro> bashing: how would i dowload google chrome, im currently on firefox
[03:37] <LLighTT> vlc ignoring*
[03:37] <Vera> OK. But I'm sorry, I'll need the rest of them again, since I fell out of IRC and lost the log with you giving me the commands... (sorry)
[03:38] <xangua> semipro: go to google chrome website and download it, bouble clic to install it
[03:38] <Bashing-om> semipro: Go to Google's web page and download google-chrome is the easier way .. ( can be done from terminal but ) .
[03:39] <semipro> bashing-om: would i use, /wget
[03:39] <Bashing-om> Vera: 2) unity --reset-icons 3) setsid unity .
[03:40] <semipro> bubbasaures: im using the latest version of ubuntu
[03:40] <bubbasaures> cool
[03:41] <semipro> it would be if i was proficient with ubuntu, but im not XD
[03:41] <semipro> when my HDD was wiped my pc diddnt even know /help..... I would get /gurbb error lol
[03:42] <LLighTT> nvm found a better work around
[03:42] <Bashing-om> semipro: 1) wget -q -O – https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add - 2) sudo sh -c ‘echo “deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main” >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list’ 3) sudo apt-get update 4) sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable . reboot and there should be the google-chrome icon to start that browser .
[03:42] <semipro> grubb error *
[03:43] <semipro> bashing-om ill give that a try man, thanks
[03:43] <LLighTT> btw is there a way that shows me all packages that i have installed and sorting them by install date?
[03:43] <Bobby_> could someone help with my problem?
[03:43] <Vera> Bashing-om : I kind of wrote the third command right after the second, but without my username and computername coming first. There's no reaction from the computer. Bad or good?
[03:43] <Bashing-om> semipro: Letter space fuction perfect ! copy and paste for best results .
[03:43] <lotuspsychje> !ask | Bobby_
[03:43] <Bobby_> it has been asked 7 minutes ago now
[03:44] <semipro> way ahead of ya bashing XD
[03:44] <vbgunz> usually when I open my encrypted disk, several files are created in /dev/mapper.... on a newly installed server, opening the encrypted disk, only 1 is created and it seems like the main device. how do I get to the meat?
[03:45] <Bashing-om> Vera: Not sure where you were. If you entered the 3rd on the same line as the 2nd, the 3rd command will have no effect ( no actuator between the commnads.
[03:45] <semipro> wait, after crtl c and ctrl v-ing that long a$$ cmd, do i do, sudo apt-key add
[03:45] <semipro> ?
[03:45] <Bashing-om> Vera: Will not hurt to run them again .
[03:46] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: i just joined the channel, you can re-ask your question here once in a while
[03:46] <SchrodingersScat> !patience
[03:46] <Bobby_> ok. i didn't know the protocol for that.  searching is not going to help.  i have worked around 50 hours on this.  i will repeat my question.
[03:47] <Bobby_> I am trying to get sound playback working on an Intel Bay Trail Tablet. I do not get a sound device with any firmware except for with 5339.B in the Intel ChromiumOS repo. With this firmware I only get static or no sound at all though. I have played with all the alsamixer settings and tried the ASUS t100 state file that is commonly used still with no sound.  what can I do to fix this?
[03:47] <Bashing-om> semipro: each is one long sequence . so yeah ' sudo apt-key add - ' is part of that string .
[03:48] <semipro> damnitt
[03:48] <semipro> okay
[03:48] <Vera> Bashing-om : I wrote the 2.nd, pressed enter, then a lot of lines about compiz (core) came up. However; the line under all the text, where the marker was blinking, did not have my username and computername on it, like it usually have when i type a command. I still wrote the 3.rd command, but bothing happened.
[03:48] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Bobby_
[03:49] <semipro> so i add sudo apt-key imitatlly (spell check) after the previous command w/o a space?
[03:49] <Bashing-om> Vera: Think'n . Not at all what I had expected .
[03:49] <Bobby_> @ubottu - that is an answer i would expect from microsoft.  read into what i'm saying.   the problem is a little more complicated
[03:50] <fowlslegs> I can't seem to start an lxc container as an unprivileged user.
[03:50] <fowlslegs> I followed these instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/lxc.html#lxc-unpriv
[03:52] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: wich ubuntu version you installed on your tablet?
[03:53] <Bobby_> i have tried 13.10 14.04 14.10 and many different kernels from the ppa, the official kernel, and one i have compiled myself
[03:53] <fowlslegs> paste.ubuntu.com/9376683
[03:53] <explodingmango> Got a question pertaining to XInput, if applicable here. I have a SpacePilot whose input is being grabbed by xinput, which is bad because then my desired driver (spacenavd) can't grab it. How do I make xinput ignore my SpacePilot?
[03:54] <explodingmango> Oddly enough I also have an almost-identical device, SpaceNavigator, which does not have this problem, xinput is not listing it so it works perfectly with spacenav
[03:55] <explodingmango> Basically the SpacePilot is being treated as an actual mouse for some reason, and for the life of me I can't find where xinput stores its device-specific settings. xorg.conf doesn't seem to exist, wasn't in the xorg.conf.d directory either
[03:55] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: whats the default Os on that tablet of yours?
[03:55] <semipro> Bashing-om: it isn't wanting to run the command, sudo apt-key add after i run https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
[03:55] <Vera> Bashing-om i was thinking about writing command 2 and 3 again, but I still don't have that [username-and-computername]-thing that is usually at the start of the line.
[03:55] <fowlslegs> Ah, so in the log it says ~/.local/ could not be accessed.
[03:56] <fowlslegs> It suggests giving it 'x' access or adding an ACL for the container root.
[03:56] <Bobby_> windows 8.1.  i would like to get the hp stream 7 to work but I have a dell venue 8 pro 3000 series with the same errors and the same errors with the toshiba encore 2 8 and toshiba encore mini 7
[03:56] <bubbasaures> Bashing-om, I can't remember when I have ever seen that dconf command actually finish, just a wall of text generally.
[03:57] <fowlslegs> I'm assuming running `chmod +x ~./local/` would work, but what is the other option referring to, and which is safer.
[03:57] <daftykins> Bobby_: i doubt you're going to get anywhere here. might be best to cut your losses and get a supported device.
[03:57] <bubbasaures> fowlslegs, Did you check the troubleshooting info on your link?
[03:57] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: well im not sure whats the best thing, ubuntu desktop or ubuntu touch
[03:58] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: you can always try the #ubuntu-touch guys or the XDA forums for projects on those devices
[03:58] <Bobby_> @dafty - im determined to make this work @lotus i would actually like to use desktop kubuntu because i want a kde x86 phone :)
[03:58] <Bobby_> @lotus great idea
[03:59] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: found some thread here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2242655
[03:59] <daftykins> well, good luck
[03:59] <lotuspsychje> seems like the bay trail isnt so linux friendly
[03:59] <semipro> how do i dowload chrome using the latest version of ubuntu
[04:00] <Bobby_> @lotus - i can get them all to boot and install just fine.  in fact most everything works but sound.  i have a dell venue 8 pro 5000 series with working sound but the rest sound don't work.  i really want to get the hp stream 7 sound to work
[04:00] <bubbasaures> semipro, https://www.google.com/chrome/
[04:01] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: best way would be diggin for the error logs, and find a way to solve
[04:01] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: anything usefull in syslog or dmesg about sound?
[04:01] <fowlslegs> bubbasaures: Yes.
[04:01] <semipro> w/o wine or software to open windows.exe file bubbasaures
[04:02] <Bobby_> @lotus - yes.  all firmwares but 5339.B in the chromiumOS repo give: baytrail-pcm-audio baytrail-pcm-audio: ipc: error DSP boot timeout.  the one in the repo works but doesn't actually play sound
[04:02] <bubbasaures> semipro, Check the wine website on what is actually supported, it is limited, there is a wine channel as well, never used it myself.
[04:02] <semipro> bubbasaures:  alright
[04:03] <semipro> bubbasaures:  i'll give it a shot
[04:03] <bubbasaures> semipro, people do give wine support here however.
[04:03] <smulverine> xit
[04:03] <smulverine> exit
[04:03] <semipro> anyone feel like running me set up wine?
[04:04] <vbgunz> it turns out I had to install "lvm2" on the server... otherwise I had no idea how to use cryptsetup without it
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: did you try kernel update or alsa update to latest?
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> !wine | semipro
[04:04] <x2xx3x> Vera: to abort some running or stucking processes you can press Ctrl+C to kill that process
[04:04] <Bobby_> @lotus - the only thing i haven't tried is to update alsa to latest.  i presume i will need to try to compile it.  not looking forward to that
[04:05] <lotuspsychje> !info playonlinux > semipro
[04:05] <Bashing-om> Vera: I honestly at this point do not know . the Commands should complete and return to your normal prompt - awaiting the next commnad.
[04:05] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: i think in your case, there will be no easy solution :p
[04:07] <Bobby_> @lotus.  yeah.  i will wait around here for a few minutes and ask again, then try ubuntu-touch and then xda-dev and maybe recompile alsa while getting some dragon age in there somewhere.
[04:08] <Bashing-om> Vera: bubbasaures Run the reset commands once more ? OR take the shotgun approach and purge/reinstall ubuntu-desktop ??
[04:08] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: as you are experimenting with a chromiumOs package, you should search in this direction..its not an ubuntu firmware right? https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=351000
[04:08] <Vera> x2xx3x an Bashing-om : I tried ctrl+C now, and then tried the unity --reset-icons. It replied with WARNING no DISPLAY variable set, setting it to :0
[04:09] <Bashing-om> Vera: resetting to :0 is good . go ahead .
[04:09] <x2xx3x> Vera: thumbs up
[04:09] <Bobby_> @lotus - amazingly i have tried that exact firmware commit version.  i have not tried the "entire dependent patch set" which i presume is the newest alsa versions
[04:10] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: i wonder what kind of error sound would give you, after a clean 14.04 install?
[04:10] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: i would maybe try updating alsa from a clean trusty
[04:10] <Bobby_> @lotus i wouldn't get sound at all.  i have checked ubuntu's firmware versions and none are compatible
[04:11] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: yes but then at least we know what kind of error ubuntu gives us, and can work from there to solve
[04:12] <Vera> Bashing-om and x2xx3x : And then "Stop: Unknown job: unity-panel-service" (new line) "Start: Unknown job: unity-panel-service" (new line) "comiz (core) - Info: Loading plugin: core (new line) compiz (core) - Info: Starting plugin: core" And then a new line with nothing, exept a blinking  marker.
[04:12] <Bobby_> well the very first error is something like "failed to load firmware" because ubuntu has a mismatch between firmware and kernel for this hardware which i believe is an actual bug
[04:13] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: maybe some modprob could solve this?
[04:13] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: how come you tryed a chromeOs firmware on a winbased tablet to run sound on ubuntu?
[04:13] <Bobby_> @lotus - i thought so too but the correct driver (the one on the working dell) loads with the 5339.B firmware version
[04:14] <Bobby_> @lotus - i found that link on the ubuntuforums actually.  it just happens to be the only firmware that actually creates a sound device. the other give: baytrail-pcm-audio baytrail-pcm-audio: ipc: error DSP boot timeout
[04:14] <Vera> Bashing-om and x2xx3x : The last time I tried that code, I got "further" before the blank line with just the marker. That time I got like 13 lines with different compiz (core) and compizconfig,
[04:16] <Bobby_> here is the link of ubuntuforums about the firmware: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2249936&p=13155820#post13155820
[04:16] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: i would try the 14.04 clean, then work your way up maybe talk to the #ubuntu-devel guys about your sound bug
[04:17] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: is your sound chip realtek based?
[04:17] <Landeskog> anyone else having an issue with apt-get  mine seems to be hanging i think its hanging on security.ubuntu.com universe
[04:17] <Bobby_> @lotus - the sound chip should be intel
[04:17] <lotuspsychje> Landeskog: maybe try a apt-get clean and reboot?
[04:18] <Developerpenguin> hey guys can someone help me im new to the DOC team and im hacing problems downloading the documentation development branch
[04:18] <Bashing-om> Vera: x2xx3x :: Not at all sure of what is going on here . Reset compiz.core ? consider : gsettings reset org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/core/ active-plugins ??
[04:19] <lotuspsychje> Bobby_: maybe look tru all intel drivers on their site maybe
[04:19] <Developerpenguin> anyone know how to user brazaar
[04:19] <Vera> Bashing-om , x2xx3x : I'm guessing I'm not supposed to try and aswer that?
[04:20] <Bashing-om> Vera: Naw, just throwing that thought out. See what the channel thinks.
[04:20] <Vera> Please, lovely oracel-channel, save me!

[04:23] <Developerpenguin> Permission denied (publickey).
[04:23] <Developerpenguin> im assuming thats the error
[04:25] <Developerpenguin> does anyone know how i can contact ubuntu wiki mods ?
[04:25] <Vera> x2xx3x Bashing-om I typed "unity --reset-icons" and then hit enter. Is that wrong?
[04:25] <x2xx3x> Vera: You have to enter each command for itself. Otherwise it will not work.
[04:25] <x2xx3x> Vera: no thats ok.
[04:26] <explodingmango> Question, where are XInput device-specific settings stored? (i.e. how do I get it to stop recognizing my device as a mouse input)
[04:26] <Vera> x2xx3x I typed it right?
[04:26] <Bashing-om> Vera: That is not wrong. That is correct .. 1 commnad at a time .
[04:26] <Vera> Good. :)
[04:26] <Vera> But why is my  "username-and-machine-name" gone from the start of the line?
[04:28] <Bashing-om> Vera: The command is not completing, for some reason . Presently I can not explain it .
[04:28] <icloud> can shomeone help me with xchat
[04:28] <icloud> i am stuck at connecting to server
[04:29] <Vera> Bashing-om : It seems like a lot of commands an/or processes stops in the middle, does it not?
[04:31] <Bashing-om> Vera: In the update process, there were may comoz relatedd updates, We do not know what broke compiz/unity to start with. Now we do not know why we can not reset unity to the defaults. I am considering the shotgun approach. see if that will restore the desk top .
[04:31] <Bashing-om> may/many*
[04:31] <Landeskog> clean and reboot didnt help
[04:32] <Landeskog> also changed the server
[04:32] <Landeskog> still hanging on
[04:32] <Landeskog> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/br5pLZdy
[04:33] <x2xx3x> Bashing-om: Hmm i also have no idea... what would that workaround do on her machine? http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/how-to-reset-unity-launcher-icons-or.html
[04:33] <Vera> I'll just go along with anything you say, Bashing-om. It's 05.30 am in my country, and I'm also running a fever, so I really don't know what I'm doing. ;)
[04:34] <Landeskog> just sits there i dunno wtf happens was updating fine earlier this week
[04:37] <Bashing-om> Vera: Understand, OK let's take the shotgun approach ! -> sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop <-. When back to a prompt then (RE-)install the desktop ->sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop <-. Maybe this will be the end of it !
[04:38] <icloud_> i want to run a SSH sever on my home computer for sock5 proxying
[04:38] <icloud_> is it better to set up kippos also? does that add any security?
[04:38] <Vera> Bashing-om : I'm ready! :) But what do you mean by "When back to prompt" ?
[04:39] <x2xx3x> Vera: prompt is the line with your name and computers name - the main line
[04:39] <Vera> Ahaa. Thanks.
[04:39] <x2xx3x> ;)
[04:40] <Vera> But, I don't have the prompt-line as of now. Should I just Ctrl+C it so I get it back?
[04:40] <x2xx3x> Yep
[04:41] <Bashing-om> Vera: When a command completes one is "returned to prompt" . Here is but 2 commands, make sure the first competes before running the 2nd (install) command. easy peasy we hope .
[04:42] <icloud_> !apt-get | icloud_
[04:43] <Bobby_> i'll repeat my question once more and then get out of the way.  btw i have tried #ubuntu-touch and #ubuntu-devel and there is no activity there.  i have tried xda-developers forum but they are only talking about asus t100 which has good linux support.  so i repeat once more:
[04:43] <Bobby_> I am trying to get sound playback working on an Intel Bay Trail Tablet. I do not get a sound device with any firmware except for with 5339.B in the Intel ChromiumOS repo. With this firmware I only get static or no sound at all though. I have played with all the alsamixer settings and tried the ASUS t100 state file that is commonly used still with no sound.  what can I do to fix this?
[04:44] <Vera> Ok, I'm back to prompt (I have my username back on the line), but the last line of the respons from my last command is not done yet. It says: " removing ubuntu-desktop (1.325) ... "
[04:44] <chipmadness> can someone here help me with a power issue?
[04:45] <Vera> Sorry, Bashing-om and x2xx3x, I meant to tag you in that last message: Ok, I'm back to prompt (I have my username back on the line), but the last line of the respons from my last command is not done yet. It says: " removing ubuntu-desktop (1.325) ... "
[04:45] <chipmadness> I have a thinkpad and I get 6 to 7 hours on windows
[04:45] <chipmadness> and on ubuntu i get around 3
[04:48] <Bashing-om> Vera: If you are back to prompt (username@machinename) then now do -> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop <- .
[04:50] <noictib> http://youtu.be/5Qj8p-PEwbI
[04:50] <Vera> Bashing-om : Even if the last response ended with "..." and no conclusion?
[04:50] <UTL> Hey people. I need help with my IRC client...
[04:51] <Bashing-om> Vera: If you are back to the prompt, then the command completed.
[04:51] <noictib> UTL: cool
[04:51] <UTL> I'm trying to connect to #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.net. How do I configure Quassel to do this?
[04:53] <Vera> Bashing-om : OK, great, I'm back to prompt after that command.
[04:53] <x2xx3x> Vera: Run the install-command now.
[04:53] <Bashing-om> Vera: Rebbot the machine, and let's see what the result is -- a good desk top with all icons displayed properly !
[04:54] <UTL> noictib: What do I do?
[04:54] <Bashing-om> reboot*
[04:54] <Vera> Sorry, x2xx3x and bashing-om : Run more install-commands, or reboot?
[04:55] <x2xx3x> Vera: if you have installed already - reboot
[04:55] <Bashing-om> Vera: IF you have run " sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop " then it is time to see what is . Reboot .
[04:56] <UTL> Is anybody using Quassel?
[04:56] <chipmadness> can anyone help me please
[04:56] <UTL> Same here!
[04:57] <Vera> Bashing-om : One more emberassing question: How do I reboot from consol?
[04:57] <developerpenguin> does anyone here use launchpad
[04:57] <x2xx3x> reboot -h now  or sudo reboot -h now
[04:57] <Bashing-om> Vera: Best way terminal command -> sudo shutdown -r now <- . Not to know is not to be ashamed !
[04:58] <developerpenguin> can someone please help me for a second ? does anyone here use bazaar ?
[04:58] <x2xx3x> Bashing-om: also new to me, thank you!
[04:59] <UTL> chipmadness: I used to have an IBM Thinkpad, but it had Mandriva on it. I don't think I can help you on that one.
[04:59] <Bashing-om> x2xx3x: : ) .. many ways, this one I feel the more gracefull .
[05:00] <x2xx3x> Bashing-om: :) mhm!
[05:01] <Bobby_> @chipmadness - get an extended battery, come up with a creative way to stay plugged in, develop a fuel cell, make an aa battery pack, make a nuclear battery, unload unused kernel modules, configure cpu throttling, and check your bios settings
[05:01] <Vera> Bashing-om : How often and when do you frequent this IRC?
[05:01] <chipmadness> Thanks Bobby_ lol
[05:02] <Bashing-om> Vera: I am on here each evening - My Lord permitting . I am at GMT -6 time .

[05:05] <Bashing-om> Vera: Long about 0900 GMT .

[05:14] <MrSavage> I was trying to set nemo as my main file manager and I'm getting this error when I click the recycle bin:
[05:14] <MrSavage> it's not copying
[05:14] <MrSavage> Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/applications/nemo.desktop" (Permission denied).
[05:15] <MrSavage> why is this happening?
[05:15] <trez_> I get the following error: unable to mount: software caused connection abort  when attempting to mount SMB shares on my windows machines- I can see the shares names but clicking on them to mount them gives the error. The issue is  not specific to ubuntu, also happened in manjaro and debian
[05:15] <MrSavage> trez_: Are the drives encrypted?
[05:15] <trez_> no, they are straight up NTFS file shares on windows machines
[05:15] <trez_> shared out to "everyone"
[05:16] <trez_> and I can see them just fine on a windows VM on the same host
[05:18] <trez_> I've done everything from make changes in the smb.conf file to try to force mount on boot in the fstab. and reinstalling from scratch... nothing seems to work
[05:19] <trez_> also installing differrent versions of samba and compiling samba from source along with vmfs and other things
[05:19] <trez_> I'm now on a virgin install
[05:19] <AndroUser> I really need some help. I just installed command line via the mini.iso on usb. When grub tried to install it failed. So I chose lilo. By default, it wanted to install to sdb (which is always my usb) so I selected sda (my one and only hard drive). At reboot all I get is a flashing curser. What can I do?
[05:20] <trez_> Andro - try re-creating the USB stick with RUFUS
[05:20] <AndroUser> I tried booting from usb again and it brings up lilo
[05:21] <AndroUser> trez_ I have no usable system
[05:22] <trez_> if you have another USB stick you could try recreating the USB drive with with the dd command
[05:22] <Bashing-om> AndroUser: What OS have you got installed to the hard drive (sda) ? What results when you boot from the hard drive rather thean the USB ?
[05:23] <AndroUser> After data check it gives a bunch of numbers and says [sdb] no caching mode page found. Then lists a bunch of failed mounts and drops me to an ash shell
[05:25] <AndroUser> Bashing-om I had lubuntu on my hard drive. Hard drive boot givese a flashing curser
[05:25] <Bashing-om> AndroUser: Do you now have a liveDVD(USB) on hand ? We can (RE-)install grubs .
[05:26] <AndroUser> Lubuntu was installed in uefi mode. I switched to legacy amd reformatted for imstallimg mini.iso
[05:27] <Bashing-om> AndroUser: Umph. UEFI lets me out, I have no experience with UEFI .
[05:29] <trez_> AndroUser, have you tried changing the BIOS settings to put your HDD into legacy mode?
[05:29] <AndroUser> Bashing-om: i have nothing. I think the installer mis-read my usb as sda and hd as sdb and so I THINK ubuntu is installed on my HD and lilo on my isb
[05:29] <trez_> instead of booting UEFI mode
[05:30] <AndroUser> trez_ yes. I switched to legacy to boot and install mini.iso
[05:32] <trez_> AndroUser, could you use the shell script here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1958073  to rebuild the flash drive with a new download of the iso
[05:33] <Bashing-om> AndroUser: From a liveDCD terminal command -> sudo parted -l <- will show how you are partitioned, and where grub should be installed to .

[05:38] <Developerpenguin> does anyone know why my .ssh file i made inst showing where i created it ?
[05:39] <AndroUser> If lilo is on my usb, and Ubuntu on my hd (which is what it seems) there should be a way to boot my hd right?
[05:40] <inter78> Can anyone here, state your problem with details?
[05:40] <x2xx3x> AndroUser: Do you have a Cardreader on your machine and maybe some kind of SD-Card where you can put an image on via your mobile phone? Is there a Card in your mobile?
[05:40] <inter78> I'm new, but I got some experience with the installing processing..and glad to help if I could.
[05:40] <x2xx3x> AndroUser: Yes it would be possible via the CHANGE-ROOT method
[05:41] <inter78> I save the iso file into my android...replacing a USB
[05:41] <imastupidguest> I'm trying to write a git alias in my .bashrc but having a problem with it. I've tried 3 ways of writing it but to no avail. I've tried : alias "git merge"="git merge --no-ff" / alias 'git merge'="git merge --no-ff" and finally alias git merge="git merge --no-ff" I've almost tried every possible combination. What am I doing wrong here?
[05:41] <x2xx3x> AndroUser: but you stillneed a bootable system
[05:43] <AndroUser> x2xx3x: I have sd cards, a tablet, my phone, and a card reader on my laptop
[05:43] <imastupidguest> I figured it out
[05:43] <inter78> AndroUser What's your problem?
[05:44] <inter78> imastupidguest nice
[05:44] <x2xx3x> AndroUser: From that bootable image you can switch to your machine-installation and reinstall grub - or reinstall grub and then switch.... just to repair your grub i recommend super grub 2 disk image
[05:44] <AndroUser> x2xx3x: It said my install was successful, so i should have a good install on my hd with no bootloader
[05:45] <AndroUser> inter78 : (AndroUser) I really need some help. I just installed command line via the mini.iso on usb. When grub tried to install it failed. So I chose lilo. By default, it wanted to install to sdb (which is always my usb) so I selected sda (my one and only hard drive). At reboot all I get is a flashing curser. What can I do?
[05:46] <AndroUser> x2xx3x: i didn't think i could create a bootable image from android...
[05:47] <inter78> AndroUser: Do you deleted your current Operating System?
[05:47] <x2xx3x> AndroUser: SuperGrub2Disk  should fix that. Whats up with your tablet - are you able to do it with your tablet?
[05:49] <AndroUser> Inter78: sort of. As i had said the install any poorly
[05:50] <AndroUser> x2xx3x: crap the tablet had no card slot
[05:50] <x2xx3x> AndroidUser: i am looking for an app...
[05:51] <inter78> AndroUser: Then I prefer you to use another computer to make a bootable USB with your distro choice. Use Universal USB Installer or UnetBootIn is some of the best choice and easy.
[05:52] <Guest48424> how can i check which kernel headers my toolchain is using
[05:52] <inter78> AndroUser: Using other alternative when you don't have any operating system on the same pc is far more dangerous.
[05:53] <inter78> Guest48424: Do you mean you wanna view your current kernel version?
[05:53] <x2xx3x> AndroidUser: I found this http://softwarebakery.com/using-rufus-to-create-bootable-usb-images
[05:55] <Guest48424> inter78: the kernel headers that my toolchain is using
[05:55] <AndroUser> x2xc3x: i found an app and trying now though it seems it might not be compatible with my phone.
[05:55] <Guest48424> inter78: actually its a cross compiler
[05:56] <inter78> Guest48424: Sorry, I don't know about those.
[05:56] <inter78> AndroUser: Make sure you download an APK format for Android.
[05:58] <x2xx3x> AndroidUser: Check it out. But i have no experience with that programs. The idea was to boot from your mobiles SD-card and get the image on it via your mobile. In that case they boot throug their phone, but that is not nessesary if you put the card into your Laptop/PC.  But if it will work - why not.
[06:00] <inter78> AndroUser: You need DroidDrive before you try Rufus.
[06:01] <akis> hi all. how can i be sure that this HP mouse: http://www.kotsovolos.gr/site/computing/peripherals/mouse/129690-hp-wireless-mobile-lb454aa-black is compatible with ubuntu 14.04.1 and runs under it?
[06:01] <inter78> AndroUser: Make sure you try different distro if it doesn't worked. I prefer the 14.01 LTS
[06:03] <AndroUser> inter78: I've been using Debian with no problem
[06:04] <AndroUser> x2xx3x: the app seems to work, but as the reviews stated, my phone doesn't read properly without a custom kernel on it
[06:06] <inter78> AndroUser: Then install the Debian back, you need at least a running operating system on your pc to make your work more easy. Then, if you still wanna try Ubuntu, use mkusb installer to make bootable drive.
[06:07] <AndroUser> inter78: Obviously. That's what I'm trying to do
[06:08] <inter78> AndroUser: So, you're in process on installing it or downloading the .iso file?
[06:08] <AndroUser> It's midnight now and i have a webinar a have to host at 530am with the president of my company. Looks like i need to go buy a laptop
[06:08] <AndroUser> Aaaaaaahhh
[06:10] <inter78> akis: The best way to know if it's compatible is you need to try it by yourself. Linux is depend on your hardware. If you not have the requirements, then the chance to success iss 40-50%.
[06:11] <inter78> AndroUser: Are you sure? That will make you lose some money...(depend on your income)
[06:12] <akis> inter78: try means buy! my hardware is brand new: HEWLETT PACKARD 14-r107nv N2840/4GB/1TB - (K5E35EA).
[06:14] <inter78> akis: You need to ask for a user that used it. I don't know if it's worked or not....because I'm not using it...for that..try ubuntuforums.org at hardware section to ask.
[06:15] <x2xx3x> AndroUser: Hm - search for a different app which will work with your kernel.... we NEED a running system to do a step forward. So i try to install super grub2-disk  to one of my usb-sticks and copy it into a directory, compress and upload it. So you can try to download and just copy it on your SD-Card. Maybe it will boot from it...
[06:17] <akis> inter78: thank you for your advise. i am searching the net to find any help or advise about the asking comatability but i didnt find anything. i will hava a look on ubuntuforums.org too. any other place where maybe are listed compatability's hardware for ubuntu?
[06:20] <inter78> akis: Try this, maybe the mouse will be in the list. Good Luck - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecommendedHardware

[06:30] <JusticeHCX> Hey guys, I just installed Plex on a VPS, but it says I don't have permission to access the server
[06:31] <daftykins> join the plex channel
[06:31] <JusticeHCX> I disallowed login using root and created another user account
[06:31] <JusticeHCX> but used sudo when installing plex
[06:31] <JusticeHCX> did I mess up?
[06:31] <JusticeHCX> I did, they aren't responding
[06:31] <daftykins> doesn't make it an ubuntu issue i'm afraid
[06:31] <daftykins> maybe some kind soul will lend a hand
[06:31] <JusticeHCX> hopefully
[06:32] <inter78> sudo?
[06:32] <inter78> I never using Plex....but maybe I can help..with internal details?
[06:33] <JusticeHCX> well i hope so
[06:33] <JusticeHCX> i'm an ubuntu newb
[06:33] <JusticeHCX> so i just followed a guide to install stuff
[06:34] <inter78> Can you give the link of the guide? Mayve you viewing the 'old' guide.
[06:34] <JusticeHCX> so first i setup rtorrent on the vps using this: http://www.torrent-invites.com/showthread.php?t=272986
[06:34] <JusticeHCX> then i setup plex on the vps using this: http://www.htpcguides.com/install-plex-media-server-ubuntu-14-04/
[06:35] <JusticeHCX> then when I tried using this to configure plex: http://www.htpcguides.com/configure-plex-media-server-platforms/
[06:35] <JusticeHCX> i get this error: http://screencast.com/t/cAugLIOS9yGk
[06:37] <inter78> It appears this problem goes away when you connect via an internal IP address (ie 192.168.1.xxx). If you forward traffic through localhost, then you can access the web page.
[06:37] <JusticeHCX> how does one do this
[06:40] <JusticeHCX> inter78, ? don't leave me hanging bro!
[06:43] <inter78> Ahh, I seriously don't know how to help..but let try check out this..http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2087341 and this https://forums.plex.tv/index.php/topic/86481-plex-permissions-problem/, also this https://forums.plex.tv/index.php/topic/59679-this-media-server-is-unavailable-to-you/

[07:20] <WizardNo7> Hi all, wondering if there are any blender users on ubuntu here?
[07:31] <oeri> trying to use LD_PRELOAD to override a function in a binary that i do not have the source for.  having some difficulty - anyone familiar with doing this?
[07:32] <darkelfjuggalo> I'm trying to install the updated skype to my Ubuntu 14.04 Laptop[its been in pawn for a few months and i just got it back] none of the guides i'm finding work... i think this is a 32-bit version... i have removed 4.2 and tried to download the 14.3 deb and install it i just get sent back to 4.2. I've tried 64-bit methods just incase im wrong about the archetecture but i produce the same results
[07:33] <darkelfjuggalo> and 4.2 tells me it cannot connect...whether password is right or wrong is irellevant in this case
[07:34] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, We support skype from the ubuntu repos, the wiki suggests using these versions.
[07:35] <darkelfjuggalo> the 64-bit guide included the partners sources being enabled and updated i still get 14.2 from that
[07:35] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, And that is what is supported here.
[07:37] <darkelfjuggalo> the conical partner and conical partner(source) repository is for precise through trusty is supposed to have 4.3 in it but i am getting 4.2 out of it
[07:38] <darkelfjuggalo> 4.2 is what i was using when I was on Debian...shit what version was that... wheezy was still testing when I was using Debian *shruggs* been about 3 years i guess
[07:39] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, Yeah 4.3 is here on trusty, you ran a update and dist-upgrade lately?
[07:41] <darkelfjuggalo> i upgraded to 14.04 before my laptop went into pawn i ran an update and upgrade through apt-get when i got it back 2 days ago... do i need a Dist-upgrade in 14.04?
[07:42] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, dist-upgrade is just a security and kernel trip
[07:43] <eldosoa> Hello! I'd like to do a single-boot of ubuntu in my MacbookAir (3,1), but I'm not sure which guide to follow. Like for one, I don't know if I need rEFIt if I'm going to do a single-boot.
[07:43] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, Did you turn on the independent repo?
[07:45] <darkelfjuggalo> none of the guides told me to include independent just the canonical partners and canonical partners(sources)
[07:45] <bubbasaures> !mac | eldosoa here's the bit mac info
[07:46] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, Skype is a 3rd party, you are not getting the upgrade, so what do you think you should do?
[07:46] <bubbasaures> darkelfjuggalo, These are the same thing is all. "canonical partners and canonical partners(sources)"
[07:47] <darkelfjuggalo> i just did that and the software & updates  says it can't find it
[07:47] <bubbasaures> same apps anyway, just source is available on some
[07:47] <eldosoa> thanks bubbasaures and ubottu. My MacBookAir(3,1) doesn't seem to be in the list.
[07:47] <JustSighDudes> Hi. I tried moving a postgres data directory but changed my mind. Now trying to restart it and getting "/etc/postgresql/9.1/main is not a valid data directory"
[07:47] <eldosoa> I guess that means it's not supported?
[07:51] <bubbasaures> eldosoa, Not necessarily, you are on during a slow time and an apple computer is rather less common here but we see them daily.
[07:51] <bubbasaures> less help is the translation. ;)
[07:51] <somsip> JustSighDudes: at what point in the process did you change your mind?
[07:51] <eldosoa> bubbasaures: cool, thanks for the help, i'll come back another time then.
[07:52] <bubbasaures> eldosoa, US and European day are the busy times basically, more US possibly.
[07:53] <eldosoa> But is it possible to run a clean installation of 14.04 on my MacBookAir(3,1)?
[07:54] <bubbasaures> eldosoa, I would guess yes, http://askubuntu.com/questions/513565/macbook-air-3-2-odd-behavior-when-starting
[07:55] <bubbasaures> not an install but a running mac with ubuntu
[07:55] <bubbasaures> install link thta is
[07:56] <eldosoa> bubbasaures: You're saying a single-boot might be too complicated? Dual-boot is more likely?
[07:57] <rsv> i am using Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit version, i want to install flash player so that i can watch youtube videos. can anyone help me
[07:57] <rsv> i tried sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin, but it does not work
[07:58] <bubbasaures> eldosoa, No that it was just proof of a mac "your mode" running ubuntu. I would think the OSX there are not will make a difference in installing in the end. I suggest you actually ask someone whom does not have to guess.
[07:58] <somsip> !info flashplugin-installer | rsv
[07:58] <bubbasaures> model*
[07:59] <eldosoa> bubbasaures: ok, thanks again!
[07:59] <rsv> somsip: E: Unable to locate package flashplugin-nonfree
[07:59] <bubbasaures> eldosoa, I have never owned an apple so not familiar is all, they seem nice. ;)
[07:59] <somsip> rsv: In component multiverse
[07:59] <somsip> rsv: so you have to enable that repo
[07:59] <eldosoa> bubbasaures: haha, might is old already, would like to try ubuntu first on it before i buy a thinkpad.
[07:59] <rsv> somsip: i dont know whcih one
[08:00] <eldosoa> *mine is old already
[08:00] <somsip> rsv: sorry - enabled by default. I'm doing too many things at once
[08:00] <rsv> somsip: then why is it complaining, my /etc/apt/sources.list has only one line: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main universe
[08:03] <confrey> hi everybody
[08:03] <confrey> may anyone tell me how to install grub in efi? on the installation process I had an error, and now I've no grub installed
[08:05] <bubbasaures> confrey, This a dual boot?
[08:05] <confrey> bubbasaures, yes
[08:06] <confrey> to enter lnux I have to use brub console by starting a linux live on usb
[08:06] <bubbasaures> confrey, What is the dualboot with?
[08:07] <confrey> windows 8.1
[08:07] <confrey> I disabled secure boot
[08:07] <bubbasaures> confrey, Did you do a legacy install?
[08:07] <confrey> I have no linux entries in efi, as efibootmgr says
[08:07] <confrey> no
[08:07] <confrey> efi
[08:07] <confrey> but
[08:07] <confrey> during installation, I had a fatal error about installing bootloader
[08:08] <bubbasaures> confrey, Have you seen the UEFI wiki?
[08:08] <confrey> now I have the grub-efi-amd64 installed, but I don't know how to create the boot menu entry
[08:08] <confrey> bubbasaures, I saw a lot of docs and pages, but I didn't understand what to do really
[08:09] <bubbasaures> !uefi | confrey look here a s refrence for the moment
[08:09] <confrey> in grub-pc, I did a 'grub-install /dev/sda' adn all will work
[08:09] <confrey> I don't know what to do in efi mode
[08:11] <confrey> bubbasaures, xcuse me, but that page is not useful, I don't need to know alla bout UEFI, or better, I already know what that page says, I need to know how to install grub in an efi system after installing a ubuntu
[08:12] <bubbasaures> "confrey> bubbasaures, I saw a lot of docs and pages, but I didn't understand what to do really" okay.
[08:15] <Ben64> confrey: actually, that page does show how to do that
[08:16] <confrey> I always page about installing linux on efi system, ok, I read it, but that's not my case : I have a ubuntu installed, working (I'm using it now), but the bootloader was not installed during installation process, and I can't find how to reinstall the grub only
[08:16] <confrey> Ben64, no, that page doesn't show what I need
[08:16] <Ben64> it really does
[08:16] <confrey> I don't want to relinstall all again
[08:17] <confrey> Ben64, then, please, show me where, because I don't find it
[08:18] <Ben64> confrey:  "Converting Ubuntu into EFI mode"
[08:18] <metus_violarium> Hello! I am qute mature in linux server, so could somebody help me? I installed OpenVPN on Ubuntu Server and noticed, thay UPNP does not work. Actually, it's obvious, because server doesn't have it, while my router have. So, what should I do to make it work? Just install upnp daemon on vpn-server and configure it for tun0 interface? THank you.
[08:20] <confrey> Ben64, no, my ubuntu installation is already in efi mode, I donìt need to convert anything
[08:21] <Ben64> confrey: is it booting properly in efi mode?
[08:21] <confrey> Ben64, I need to run grub to create e menu entry for booting linux, that's all, and, becuase of I have a EfI mode installation, I don't know how to to do that; I knew well in case og legacy mode...
[08:23] <confrey> Ben64, to boot ubuntu I need to insert the usb live, choose the efI USB on boot, a grub menu appears (EFI menu), I choose grub console by pressing 'C', and I select the appropriate linux image after setting the root deice
[08:23] <confrey> Ben64, and ubuntu starts
[08:23] <confrey> Ben64, now I have to add ubuntu entry to efi list of bootin
[08:23] <Ben64> confrey: so the answer to "is it booting properly in efi mode?" is no. Do the steps listed on that page.
[08:29] <darkelfjuggalo> thank you rypervenche... it's been a while since someone actually worked through a problem to the end with me if it wasn't solved in about 2 minutes...
[08:29] <rypervenche> darkelfjuggalo: No problem.

[08:46] <usimha> Hello! I'm having a problem regarding unmet dependecies for libre office. Any apt-get command I issues says there are unmet dependencies and I should use apt-get install -f
[08:47] <usimha> when I use apt-get install -f, I get another error
[08:47] <Ben64> usimha: pastebin everything
[08:49] <usimha> Ben64: http://pastebin.com/wEmDpART
[08:53] <Ben64> usimha: why do you have something called "openoffice-debian-menus"
[08:53] <usimha> Ben64: I installed apache openoffice to replace libreoffice
[08:54] <Ben64> usimha: well that's your problem then
[08:55] <usimha> Ben64: So should I remove openoffice?
[08:55] <Ben64> i would
[08:56] <usimha> Ben64: The problem is, with the unmet dependencies, I can't do anything with apt-get. Can't even do apt-get remove :/
[08:57] <Ben64> usimha: well how did you install openoffice
[08:57] <usimha> I installed it long back using dpkg. Donwloaded the .deb
[08:57] <Ben64> then that is how to uninstall it
[08:58] <cfhowlett> usimha, sudo dpkg -r FOO.deb
[09:00] <usimha> Okay thanks a lot! Will try it :)

[09:28] <CodeGos8> if i write 'users' i get multiply users with same name, why?
[09:29] <x2xx3x> CodeGos8: because you are logged in via GUI and one time via terminal... open a second terminal and try again - then you have 3users
[09:29] <rtur> Hi guys, I'm compiling the 3.14.25 kernel from kernel.org. I need one with >8 cpu's support and the processor family should be Xeon. Tried to recompile the ubuntu stock kernel with these options but got kernel panics every couple minutes. I guess there is some option I don't know about which isn't compatible with >8cpu's/Xeon in the default config. Is there any kernel option Ubuntu needs to run ? Or can I
[09:29] <rtur> just compile the kernel.org kernel with what I need ?

[09:48] <Happzz> hi. i was trying to install ubuntu on my caddy hdd, but it doesnt seem to recognize that disk at all.
[09:49] <Happzz> btw walkop is pming spam
[09:49] <Happzz> [11:48] <walkop> show gratis (solo hooy) --> http://<somelink>.es
[09:49] <Happzz> anyways, i decided to make some room on my main hdd in a new partition and put ubuntu on it with a dual-boot with windows
[09:50] <DJones> Test
[09:50] <Happzz> however, the installer lets me either "replace windows" or "something else". if i choose something else, i can make a partition and install ubuntu to it, but i lose the option to encrypt the ubuntu installation
[09:50] <Happzz> hi cfhowlett :p
[09:51] <cfhowlett> Happzz, hey there.  you can encrypt post-install.
[09:51] <Happzz> cfhowlett im planning on another setup, considering i cant get the installer to recognize my caddy hd
[09:51] <cfhowlett> Happzz, ah, YOU were that guy!  I wondered about that ...
[09:51] <Happzz> if i install ubuntu on the same disk as windows, with dualboot, can i still have ubuntu encrypt its partition fully?
[09:52] <Happzz> yeah, i gave up on the caddy for now :<
[09:52] <Happzz> the windows partitions are encrypted with bitlocker
[09:53] <Happzz> ill go try put it on and nag about encrypting it afterwards
[09:53] <Happzz> see you in a bit
[09:56] <ubuntuser13> How to change file permission of user using chown
[09:56] <Ben64> chown = change owner
[09:58] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: few days ago, same problem happend and someone suggest me a command like chown -R home folder which i forgot.
[09:58] <Ben64> you're going to have to be more specific on what you want to do
[09:58] <Ben64> and the problem
[10:00] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: unity desktop behaves strangely, it automatically reset itself, i am unable to do anything like removing icon, changing wallpaper etc.
[10:01] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: pastebin the output of "ls -l ~/.Xauthority"
[10:02] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: ok
[10:02] <medecau> Good morning #ubuntu. Yesterday I had some questions about installing Ubuntu on a Mac Mini. The docs were not very helpful but in the end I persisted and found the solution. I have asked and then answered my self on askubuntu.com. In the hopes that what I have written may be of use for others I share it here with you. http://askubuntu.com/questions/556757/mac-mini-late-2012-14-10-server-wont-boot-after-install
[10:02] <medecau> Thank you for your patient.
[10:04] <cfhowlett> medecau, congratulatons on your success!
[10:04] <ubuntuser13> Ben64:http://paste.ubuntu.com/9380289/
[10:08] <Justice> can anybody help with configuring vsftpd or ssh tunneling?
[10:10] <Rory|away> I ran "strings /dev/urandom| grep -i nsa" and saw a lot of output, does this mean the NSA has backdoored the Linux random number generator?
[10:11] <Ben64> Rory|away: no, thats silly
[10:15] <medecau> Rory, if you run "strings /dev/urandom| grep -i jesus" you're bound to see jesus a few times
[10:15] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: how to change permissions of home folder like  sudo chmod  username /home/username
[10:16] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: you shouldn't ever need to do that
[10:16] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: paste the output, it should only be one line so you can put it in the channel... "ls -ld ~/"
[10:16] <UBUNTU-NEW-USER> hi to all
[10:17] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: drwxr-xr-x. 48 monu monu 4096 Dec  5 15:06 /home/monu/
[10:18] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: you already own it
[10:19] <Rory> medecau: I've been running that for a few minutes now and I haven't found jesus. But the NSA one appears all the time
[10:19] <Justice> ubuntu 14.04 vs ubuntu 14.10 ?
[10:20] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: but why unity after few days reset itself automatically. also i am unable to resize unity dash. and remove unity icons.
[10:20] <medecau> Rory, jesus might take 3 days to come up. You got have faith
[10:20] <Rory> Is that in package libfaith0 ?
[10:21] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: well its nothing to do with the owner of your home directory
[10:21] <medecau> Rory, on a serious note jesus will be be a lot less common than NSA or GOD because it's 5 letters instead of 3
[10:22] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: but i can't minimise unity dash, why?
[10:22] <cfhowlett> Justice,  up to you, not up to random IRC..
[10:22] <Justice> what's the difference though?
[10:22] <medecau> Justice, 14.04 is LTS
[10:23] <Justice> In terms of actual stability, performance, etc
[10:23] <medecau> !lts
[10:23] <Justice> Is .04 or .10 better for hosting a seedbox and plex
[10:24] <medecau> .04 and activate security updates
[10:24] <cfhowlett> Justice, servers are best managed on LTS as I understand it.  but #ubuntu-server might have better ideas.
[10:24] <Justice> alright, i'll stick with the LTS, thanks
[10:29] <simo93> ciao
[10:29] <simo93> !list
[10:31] <dj123> nid hlp..i am using Ubuntu 14..know i want to run technicolor cd..um falin.any ideas?
[10:32] <EriC^^> dj123: technicolor?
[10:32]  * cfhowlett ... not sure if trolling ...
[10:32] <dj123> eric..yah to configure ADSL modem
[10:33] <EriC^^> dj123: is that a software?
[10:33] <EriC^^> dj123: any website?
[10:33] <dj123> Eric..hold on a sec
[10:35] <dj123> EriC..web site z http://support.zen.co.uk/kb/Knowledgebase/Broadband-Technicolor-TG582n-Office-Setup
[10:37] <EriC^^> dj123: ok, did you turn the router on and type http://192.168.1.254 in firefox?
[10:38] <cfhowlett> dj123, did you do all that as instructed?
[10:39] <dj123> EriC...i need option for PPOE..it only come up when i run the disc.this is why i need to run the disc.
[10:40] <cfhowlett> dj123, the disk in not supported in linux, is it?  I see nothing stating "linux supported"
[10:41] <dj123> cfhowlett...i thout maybe i was doing something wrong.
[10:41] <dj123> but thanks anyway
[10:43] <arun_> guys, how to fix a fat32 pendrive if its bad boot sector, can't rebuild BS using testdisk
[10:43] <cfhowlett> arun_, pendrive?  you mean USB?
[10:43] <arun_> cfhowlett: yes
[10:45] <cfhowlett> arun_, gparted.  deleted partitions.  make a new msdos partition table.  add new fat32 partition.  if any of this fails for any reason, go to the store and buy a replacement.
[10:45] <arun_> cfhowlett: the most imp thing is that I need to get my files backup from it
[10:47] <creatorb> arun_: you mean boot from your usb and then backup your data on pc/laptop? #i'm_still_confused
[10:49] <blaatmeister> arun_: You could try recovering the files with PhotoRec (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec). Not sure if that will work though. Should have been installed with the testdisk package.
[10:50] <arun_> creatorb: I mean to recover my files
[10:50] <blaatmeister> arun_: Also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[10:50] <blaatmeister> Might have some useful info.
[10:50] <arun_> blaatmeister: is there any tools to browse the files without backing up?
[10:51] <blaatmeister> arun_: Not sure. I´ve only ever used photorec and that was quite some time ago.
[10:51] <EriC^^> arun_: try testdisk
[10:52] <EriC^^> arun_: you can browse the files and recover what you want
[10:52] <arun_> EriC^^: via testdisk or photorec ?
[10:52] <EriC^^> testdisk
[10:53] <EriC^^> press p over the partition to view the files
[10:54] <arun_> EriC^^: after analysizing??
[10:54] <EriC^^> yeah
[10:54] <arun_> ok EriC^^ will give it a try......
[10:54] <ubuntuser13> how to change permissions of home folder.
[10:54] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: to what?
[10:56] <arun_> EriC^^: it says No partition found or selected for recovery
[10:56] <ubuntuser13> Eric: i unable to resize unity, change wallpaper and remove unity icons etc.
[10:56] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: type find /home/<username> ! -user <username>
[10:57] <EriC^^> arun_: did you get any partitions after pressing analyze?
[10:57] <arun_> EriC^^: naaa
[10:57] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: those are files that aren't owned by yourself, if any
[10:57] <EriC^^> arun_: try the deep search
[10:57] <arun_> EriC^^: yeah, currently doing that
[10:59] <ubuntuser13> Eric: can you please tell me chmod command same as you given.
[10:59] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: if you want to make all files rwxrwx--- , sudo chmod -R 770 /home/<username>
[11:00] <Ben64> thats not a good solution
[11:00] <Ben64> everything is not meant to be 770
[11:00] <x2xx3x> Ben64: Yeah... you where right
[11:01] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: did you run a chmod -R command earlier?
[11:01] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: did the find command return anything?
[11:01] <ubuntuser13> Eric: no no, someone suggest me a command like chmod -r username  /home/username
[11:01] <Ben64> yes, run the find command before doing a sweeping change
[11:01] <Ben64> even if a incorrect owner on a file is the problem, this is not a solution
[11:01] <arun_> it doesn't show any ... it has only options add parition, load partition  and enter to contibue
[11:01] <arun_> *continue EriC^^
[11:02] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: did the find command return anything?
[11:02] <Ben64> arun_: make a copy using dd and/or ddrescue then work from that image to recover
[11:02] <ubuntuser13> Eric: yes , files of home folder.
[11:03] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: pastebin them
[11:03] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: ok, type ls -l /home/<username>
[11:03] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: and get a file from the ones it returned and type ls -l /path/to/file
[11:03] <EriC^^> and paste the output
[11:04] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: how to find previous xchat log files?
[11:05] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: stop worrying about what you did before and just pastebin the results of the find command
[11:05] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: you can check the command you ran before, type history
[11:05] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: if you have to continually chown stuff, that means something is WRONG!
[11:08] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: Ben64: i am unable to change wallpaper one of the basic problem. that's why i continously want a file permission command.
[11:09] <Ben64> you are not listening. you should not ever have to do that. something is causing it, you should be finding that, not the command to ignore the problem for more time
[11:10] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: sorry, now tell me what i should do?
[11:11] <Ben64> the find command you did earlier... pastebin it
[11:12] <EriC^^> Ben64: that might be huge
[11:12] <1JTAA9OPC> Please someone help: When I run sudo apt-get update I get GPG error for canonical, extras, and trusty releases ppas. I tried all the forums online but none solved the issue!
[11:12] <Ben64> shouldn't be
[11:12] <EriC^^> Ben64: it could be his whole home dir
[11:12] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: i can't, because of privacy.
[11:12] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: anything else.
[11:12] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: i told you to paste the ls -l commands
[11:12] <EriC^^> which aren't intrusive
[11:13] <EriC^^> ls -l /home/<username>
[11:13] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: eh i give up then, stop using sudo all the time though
[11:13] <EriC^^> and pick any file from the find list and run ls -l on it
[11:14] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: sorry
[11:14] <EriC^^> it's ls -ld /home/<username>
[11:14] <ubuntuser13> Eric: ok i do, wait
[11:14] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: not ls -l
[11:15] <ubuntuser13> Eric: drwxr-xr-x. 48 monu monu 4096 Dec  5 16:22 /home/monu
[11:15] <1JTAA9OPC> Please someone help: When I run sudo apt-get update I get GPG error for canonical, extras, and trusty releases ppas. I tried all the forums online but none solved the issue!
[11:15] <EriC^^> ok, and pick a file in the find list and run ls -ld on it
[11:16] <EriC^^> 1JTAA9OPC: paste the error
[11:16] <developerpengiui> does anyone here know how to use bazaar?
[11:16] <1JTAA9OPC> that's one of them: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY B5B116B72D0F61F0
[11:17] <1JTAA9OPC> it gives the same for all other trusty related ppas
[11:17] <developerpengiui> does anyone know how to push changes to launchpad ?
[11:18] <ubuntuser13> Eric: ok
[11:18] <1JTAA9OPC> EriC^^: that's one of them: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY B5B116B72D0F61F0
[11:18] <ubuntuser13> eric: find: `/home/monu/.cache/dconf': Permission denied
[11:19] <Ash-Fox> gpg -a --export B5B116B72D0F61F0 | sudo apt-key add -
[11:20] <Ash-Fox> Whoops, memory failed me.
[11:20] <Ash-Fox> gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys B5B116B72D0F61F0 && gpg -a --export B5B116B72D0F61F0 | sudo apt-key add -
[11:22] <ubuntuser13> Eric: i think my profile permissions problem.
[11:27] <ubuntuser13> Eric: chown username:username /home/username . that's what i was talking about.
[11:27] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: Is this for me?
[11:27] <Ben64> ubuntuser13: still doesn't fix the problem of you using sudo for everything and breaking permissions in the first place
[11:28] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, yes. It uses GPG to connect to a public key server, extracts the key you mentioned in your error, then imports it to apt.
[11:29] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: I still get the same errors..
[11:29] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, what was the output from executing the command?
[11:29] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/webupd8team-nemo.gpg': resource limit
[11:29] <1JTAA9OPC> gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/webupd8team-unstable.gpg': resource limit
[11:29] <1JTAA9OPC> gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/webupd8team-y-ppa-manager.gpg': resource limit
[11:29] <1JTAA9OPC> gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/wfg-0ad.gpg': resource limit
[11:29] <1JTAA9OPC> gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/yorba-daily-builds.gpg': resource limit
[11:30] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: please please tell me another command which i can use after this.
[11:30] <lasdam> why is Nautilus named just 'Files' under About?
[11:30] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: Then after I run sudo apt-get update I get the exact same problem
[11:30] <arun_> Ben64: I have created its img using ddrescue, how to mount/browse it now?
[11:31] <Ben64> arun_: from what you said, it probably is not mountable, but you can try using something like this.... "sudo mount -t filysystem -o loop /path/to/img /mountpoint"
[11:33] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, yeah, something is very wrong with your key store. Which is preventing you from importing the key in question. I'm currently searching to see if I can find any information about this.
[11:33] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: Thanks! I'm trying to erase some of the unused ppas i have..
[11:34] <arun_> Ben64: there is no filesystem.. I tried fat but didn't work
[11:34] <arun_> I can see fstype under lsblk -o name,label,size,fstype,model
[11:34] <Ben64> arun_: if it was fat, then use "vfat"
[11:35] <arun_> Ben64: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, blah blah blah
[11:35] <Ben64> arun_: then use photorec to try to recover any files
[11:35] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, I did find a comment that deleting unwanted gpg files from /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d solved the issue for someone.
[11:36] <arun_> Ben64: but, can't I browse to every folder/file before recoverying....?? cause it recovers unwanted files from ages
[11:36] <Ben64> arun_: unlikely, testdisk might be able to
[11:36] <arun_> Ben64: it couldn't detect the partition
[11:36] <Ash-Fox> Another comment says that apt can't handle more than 40 GPG keys, jeeze, that's a lot.
[11:37] <Ben64> arun_: then you can't browse it...
[11:37] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: But I'm also trying to understand the logic of it. Why did it happen, and why these ppas affect the main official ppas?
[11:39] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, assuming you have a lot of stale keys, going over 40 keys. I would move everything in your /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d out, do a sudo apt-get update, then execute "gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys KEY ID && gpg -a --export KEY ID | sudo apt-key add -" for each one.
[11:40] <Squidward> SQUIDWARD HAS ARRIVED!
[11:40] <Squidward> !ops | SQUIDWARD HAS ARRIVED!
[11:41] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: I'm just deleting .gpg i don't want directly from /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d is this no good?
[11:41] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, sorry, what?
[11:42] <Ash-Fox> Oh, deleting .gpg from the folder, yeah, should work the same in theory. You will still need to run that command after for any missing keys.
[11:42] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: Ok will do
[11:43] <_sgen> Hello all, I'm having some trouble connecting to the Internet on my desktop. I'm connecting directly through a ether net cable to my modem. I've tested the connection from the modem by successfully connecting with my laptop. Ping fails with network unreachable when called with ips and unable to resolve host when called with hostnames. ifconfig shows no ip address. Where do I go from here?
[11:51] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: By the way, how do I know whta's the KEY ID for each ppa?
[11:52] <x2xx3x> _sgen: no IP usually means not connected. But in some cases i am also connected but got no IP from my router. i fix it usually with reconnecting my wlan dongle.  But you cant do so. So: what mean your network-indicator-applet top right? Does it say: connected?
[11:56] <x2xx3x> _sgen: are your networks aktivated? is the routers setup correct? dhcp on? can you reach your modem via browser?
[11:57] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, in the error message you get in apt-get update, you'll get the key id
[11:58] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: Sorry this may be silly but I do get several Key ids, how do I know which one if for which, there are no names associated to these keys
[11:58] <_sgen> x2xx3x: no it says not connected
[11:58] <ubuntuser13> how to reset home folder permissions?
[11:58] <_sgen> No router just a new modem and isp
[11:59] <_sgen> The computer is connected directly from the network card to the modem
[12:00] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, you get part of the URL, which is usually enough to guess, unless it's a PPA. In which case, I'm not really helpful.
[12:01] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: :) It's Ok thanks for the help!
[12:01] <x2xx3x> _sgen: check cable, is it broken? any LED's blinkin? -->should do when your machine connects to modem. (LED's where the cable goes in on both sides)
[12:01] <x2xx3x> what does laptop do when connected with cable? did it work?
[12:02] <_sgen> The cable is fine. Both the modem and the network card connectivity lights are blinking
[12:02] <_sgen> The laptop works without issue in windows let me double check ubuntu
[12:04] <_sgen> The laptop connects without issue
[12:04] <x2xx3x> can you login to your modem trough a browser? if yes, check for dhcp "on" and for existing rules maybe a macfilter or so
[12:05] <ubuntuser13> Ben64: Thankyou so so much for your help . this solution solved my problem. http://uuubuntu.blogspot.in/2013/06/reset-ubuntu-home-dir-permissions.html
[12:06] <Ash-Fox> 1JTAA9OPC, no problem. Hope you get it resolved soon. :)
[12:06] <ubuntuser13> Eric^^: Thankyou so much my Friend. i  found this to fix my problem. http://uuubuntu.blogspot.in/2013/06/reset-ubuntu-home-dir-permissions.html
[12:06] <1JTAA9OPC> Ash-Fox: But just for the record I don't understand why ubuntu keeps all these .gpg files when one has already removed (even purged) the repository affiliated with it from the main software repository
[12:08] <EriC^^> ubuntuser13: no problem, glad it worked out
[12:08] <_sgen> I'm trying now but I'm not sure which port the modem configuration is on
[12:09] <x2xx3x> _sgen: usually its 80 or 8080
[12:09] <_sgen> Oops ment ip
[12:13] <x2xx3x> _sgen: kk --> google for your modem-model and its standard config. but there can youst be some 10.0.0.1/25/ or 192.168.0.anything... the rigth adressrange can also figured out by typing ifconfig.. the inetAdress will give you a hint
[12:14] <_sgen> Lmao I just reset the modem
[12:14] <_sgen> It works
[12:14] <x2xx3x> _sgen: and now it works?? looool
[12:15] <_sgen> I'm guessing my friend changed all the settings for security reasons (he's that kind of guy) and something was denying access.
[12:15] <_sgen> Thanks for the help, I think ie learned my lesson!
[12:15] <x2xx3x> _sgen: tjah, lucky winner :)) there was something wrong with your config - but safety ;)
[12:17] <user3> i scan by calling scanimage. my printer has a scan button. how can I detect at the command line or in a C program e.g. by polling or detecting a signal, that the scan button has been pressed? i'd rather scan by typing the scan button than by typing return (in both cases i 'll still call scanimage)
[12:26] <lasdam> is it impossible to execute a program without read permissions? in other words is the 'x' useless without the 'r' permission?
[12:27] <visiot> after mounting the rootfile system . /sbin/init says unable to load libc.so.6 no such file or directory
[12:29] <Kartagis> can I convert a Mac format file to Linux format? at the moment I am using nano but I'd like to be able to use vim
[12:29] <EriC^^> lasdam: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /path/to/program
[12:30] <EriC^^> ( if it's x86-64 )
[12:30] <EriC^^> lasdam: ah sorry i thought you said without x permissions
[12:31] <EriC^^> lasdam: i dont think it's possible to execute it if you can't read it
[12:31] <mnms_> Hi, Can I put private addresses in zone file for domain.com ?
[12:31] <theendisnear17> lasdam: just changed an executable to only have x and, yes, I could no longer execute it
[12:32] <mnms_> is it something bad to keep records also for private network in zone file ?
[12:33] <simplew8> could anyone point me how to remove bootp/boots from user rom?
[12:33] <lasdam> alright
[12:34] <EriC^^> lasdam: unless it's suid
[12:34] <EriC^^> then you can execute without having read perms
[12:34] <EriC^^> just tried it
[12:34] <lasdam> oh
[12:34] <lasdam> I'm a newbie so I'm not familiar with suid, but I'll look it up to try it
[12:35] <EriC^^> chmod +s <program>
[12:37] <lasdam> which is only set for U and G it seems
[12:38] <EriC^^> lasdam: it's for all users
[12:38] <EriC^^> lasdam: it will run as the owner of the file
[12:38] <lasdam> didn't actually work for me
[12:39] <EriC^^> lasdam: so if the owner is root and it's +s, then whoever runs the program the program will execute whatever as root
[12:39] <Guest87920> why dont ubuntu has something like mageia control center? i dont get it. ty
[12:39] <lasdam> it didn't work for me neither with owner root or owner to the user I'm executing from
[12:40] <lasdam> ls -l program, yields: ---s--s--x
[12:40] <theendisnear17> lasdam: just a quick question, is there a reason you only want execute and not read?
[12:41] <lasdam> theendisnear17: lol not really, I just like to understand how things fully work... holes in knowledge is dangerous, and I find that tutorials and even books are often relatively full of them
[12:41] <EriC^^> lasdam: when you execute it as another user what happens?
[12:42] <lasdam> I get a permission denied Er
[12:42] <lasdam> EriC^^..
[12:43] <EriC^^> ok, if you chmod +r-s <program>
[12:43] <EriC^^> it runs?
[12:43] <Guest87920> by mageia control center i mean this http://doc.mageia.org/mcc/3/en/content/software-management.html
[12:43] <lasdam> EriC^^: yup
[12:43] <EriC^^> try it.
[12:43] <EriC^^> *...
[12:43] <BluesKaj_> Hey folks
[12:44] <lasdam> EriC^^: what? I did try it.
[12:44] <theendisnear17> is this a script? or a binary file?
[12:44] <lasdam> EriC^^: ./test.pl
[12:44] <lasdam> hello sir!
[12:44] <EriC^^> i mean try chmod +r-s <program> , then run it
[12:44] <lasdam> it's a script
[12:44] <EriC^^> ok
[12:44] <k_sze> Does anybody have experience installing Ubuntu to an external drive (and have it boot) on a newish retina MBP?
[12:44] <EriC^^> oh
[12:45] <EriC^^> lasdam: is +x set?
[12:45] <developerpenguin> can someone here help me please ? :)
[12:45] <k_sze> I manage to make a bootable live USB from the Ubuntu installation ISO, but that's live, not exactly the same thing as a normal installation.
[12:45] <lasdam> EriC^^: it's set to --x--x--x (111)
[12:45] <theendisnear17> ahh hah! well, I just tried with only x on a binary, and it works with no problem. but a script doesn't work
[12:45] <developerpenguin> im trying to make a public pgp key but it keeps coming out private ?
[12:46] <lasdam> cool theendisnear17 ^^
[12:46] <developerpenguin> does anyone know how to make a public PGP key
[12:46] <theendisnear17> looks like in order to run a script with only execute permission you need to call the shell command to execute it
[12:47] <EriC^^> lasdam: try perl test.pl
[12:47] <lasdam> EriC^^: I have. I also tried bash test.pl as suggested by theendisnear17(?), neither works
[12:47] <EriC^^> yeah what theendisnear17 said
[12:48] <developerpenguin> key
[12:48] <developerpenguin> does anyone know how to make a public PGP ey
[12:49] <theendisnear17> developerpenguin: run gpg --gen-key
[12:49] <theendisnear17> will create a public and private key
[12:50] <Guest87920> developerpenguin: not sure that this is what u mean, but maybe u also can find it there http://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=Ubuntu_14.04&p=httpd&f=7
[12:51] <developerpenguin> theendisnear17: would i choose RSA & RSA ?
[12:51] <developerpenguin> hoping it will make bazaar work and let me push things to launchpad
[12:53] <developerpenguin> does anyone here have experience with contributing to ubuntu ?
[12:53] <theendisnear17> developerpenguin: this link should help https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/ImportingYourPGPKey
[12:53] <developerpenguin> theendisnear17: do you have any experience with bazaar ?
[12:53] <EriC^^> lasdam: suid doesn't work with scripts
[12:53] <EriC^^> that's why
[12:54] <EriC^^> i forgot about that
[12:54] <theendisnear17> developerpenguin: no I do not
[12:55] <developerpenguin> theendisnear17: thanks anyways
[12:59] <lasdam> alright EriC^^
[13:01] <chomwitt_> hi. i'd like to post a request for ubiquity installer.
[13:02] <klew> sometimes I hate tech-terms...
[13:03] <klew> trying to find a way to display a toast when changing volumes with keyboard on lxde using amixer
[13:03] <klew> googling for amixer toast didn't give much help ^^
[13:07] <Guest87920> guys anyone knows why doesnt ubuntu has something like mageia control center?
[13:07] <lotuspsychje> Guest87920: what would you like to control?
[13:08] <developerpenguin>  external program calls are disabled due to unsafe options file permissions
[13:12] <cfhowlett> Guest87920, it has synaptic.  it has ubuntu software center.  it has apt.  how many tools do you need?
[13:14] <SynthAxe> Hello
[13:14] <SynthAxe> Anybody here?
[13:14] <cfhowlett> !hello | SynthAxe,
[13:14] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, ask your ubuntu question
[13:14] <SynthAxe> just wanted to ask the difference in performance of lubuntu vs ubuntu
[13:15] <SynthAxe> im planning on installing either of the two on an old system
[13:15] <lotuspsychje> SynthAxe: depends on your hardware also
[13:15] <Guest87920> lotuspsychje: look im a professional IT guy. Work OCS/FOG/SCCM are things i work with. My tools. But still i get more microsoft in my work then linux atm. But if you my own computers they are all linux. As the servers i use for work. I have a friend who i know long ago. And he also already works in IT professionally. He started also playing with opensource and microsoft deployment solutions. After some playing around for some time. He said
[13:15] <Guest87920>  to me once. THis your super awesome fucking linux. How on earth they dont even have a single simple graphical tool to setup dhcp ranges on a server. And he has a point. But then i started to play with yast. And i suppose it will have a gui for setting up dhcp. But then mageia control center is less advanced. And still more then just synaptic.
[13:15] <SynthAxe> with like an AMD sepmron procie like 1GB ram and i think 80GB HDD
[13:15] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, similar.  biggest difference: lubuntu is optimized for legacy and low specification hardware.  lubuntu isn't but also works well with older/loser spec.
[13:16] <SynthAxe> based on my HW specs
[13:16] <SynthAxe> You think I can run ubuntu decently?
[13:16] <lotuspsychje> SynthAxe: i would try ubuntu 14.04
[13:16] <Guest87920> cfhowlett: yes it has synaptic but u cant even setup printer in a conviniet way. Or u have to look around and search another separate tool for doing this or that.
[13:16] <lotuspsychje> SynthAxe: if that doesnt run smooth, you can still try xubuntu or lubuntu
[13:16] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, test it for yourself (assuming your computer can USB boot).  make a bootable USB and fire that bad boy up!
[13:17] <SynthAxe> Yea it can boot on USB
[13:17] <SynthAxe> OH
[13:17] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, gravy!  make the lubuntu USB, boot and get a taste.
[13:17] <lotuspsychje> SynthAxe: dont forget to enable internet + updates during setup
[13:17] <SynthAxe> hold on
[13:17] <SynthAxe> I think I have another HDD laying around that has lubuntu installed
[13:18] <SynthAxe> i think most linux distros would run on a system with diff hardware from where you initially installed it yes?
[13:18] <cfhowlett> Guest87920, it's worth taking up with the developers (or contributing a tool of your own).  there's a suggestion/request page somewhere.  I'll look.
[13:19] <SynthAxe> hold on i'll be back lemme try that
[13:19] <lotuspsychje> SynthAxe: i would reccomend install fresh
[13:19] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, actually ... different hardware requires different configurations.  swapping out like that doesn't result in plug and play.  try the USB test
[13:20] <cfhowlett> !contribute | Guest87920
[13:20] <Guest87920> thx ill take look
[13:21] <Guest87920> cfhowlett: mainly my question is not how i can do it myself, but how comes or how is it possible it havent been done already?
[13:22] <cfhowlett> Guest87920, I dare not hazard a guess ... but the #ubuntu-server channel might have recommendations for you.
[13:22] <Guest87920> hm ok ty
[13:26] <tygal> hello
[13:26] <SynthAxe> it worked @_@
[13:27] <SynthAxe> hey I tried installing wine via sudo-apt get install wine
[13:27] <SynthAxe> its giving me the unable to fetch some archives error
[13:27] <SynthAxe> any tips?
[13:28] <hateball> SynthAxe: did you run apt-get upgrade first
[13:29] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, actually before you do that: open a terminal:   cat /etc/issue
[13:29] <google-nsa> hi
[13:29] <SynthAxe> Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[13:30] <SynthAxe> cat /etc/issue showed this
[13:30] <k1l> SynthAxe: upgrade to 13.10 and then to 14.04. 13.04 is dead
[13:30] <hateball> !eolupgrade
[13:30] <SynthAxe> a;rogjt
[13:30] <SynthAxe> alright
[13:31] <google-nsa> guys can you point me a link to make a local repository manually ? All the docs I've found require internet connection to do it (with apt-miror...)  but I can't access directly to internet
[13:31] <SynthAxe> this is lubuntu btw, with lxde, just so you guys know
[13:31] <tygal> can anyone help with changing a read-only fs in lubuntu 14 from live boot, i mean it is possible to add files to the usb you are booting from right?
[13:31] <cfhowlett> tygal, save files?  persistence
[13:31] <cfhowlett> !persistence
[13:32] <SynthAxe> people quitting and joining is spamming meh
[13:32] <tygal> yes move a file from a hardrive and save to the usb i am live booting from
[13:32] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, you can turn off notifications for join/leave
[13:32] <SynthAxe> im on webchat holdon lemme get a client
[13:32] <cfhowlett> tygal, right.  try saving at filesystem > cdrom >
[13:33] <k1l> SynthAxe: upgrade to 13.10 then 14.04, then join with a client, then turn off join/parts
[13:33] <tygal> i get a read-only error
[13:33] <SynthAxe> yea upgrading now
[13:33] <cfhowlett> tygal, when you made the USB, did you set aside room to save files?
[13:33] <cfhowlett> tygal, if no = no save for you!
[13:34] <tygal> its a yumi, i assume so although it is one partition
[13:34] <SynthAxe> wtf its downloading @ 21kbps
[13:34] <cfhowlett> tygal, next time: startup-disk-creator
[13:34] <SynthAxe> oh nvm its raising
[13:35] <SynthAxe> rising*
[13:35] <cfhowlett> SynthAxe, language.  also: torrents are often  faster than direct dl
[13:35] <k1l> SynthAxe: next time dont wait until its years too late so you have all servers mirroring and not just the last fallback servers.
[13:35] <SynthAxe> This is an old drive laying around my house sooo
[13:36] <fa7ad> someone redirect me to the offtopic channel, i forgot the name of it -_-
[13:36] <SynthAxe> oh wait
[13:36] <SynthAxe> can I upgrade
[13:36] <cfhowlett> !ot | fa7ad,
[13:37] <SynthAxe> nvm nvm
[13:39] <avenger_> Anyone here uses inkscape?
[13:39] <parmiggiano> sure, avenger_ - hi
[13:39] <cfhowlett> avenger_, yep but they have a channel IIRC.  #inkscape
[13:39] <avenger_> How to go there?
[13:40] <cfhowlett> avenger_, wait 1 while I confirm
[13:41] <cfhowlett> avenger_, tonight I have a slow connection even by China standards.
[13:41] <avenger_> In inksape wehn you select colour and in top right you can see it in fill etc
[13:41] <cfhowlett> avenger_, /join #inkscape
[13:42] <avenger_> how
[13:42] <avenger_> ?
[13:42] <cfhowlett> avenger_, !>>>>>>>           /join #inkscape
[13:44] <tygal> ty cfhowlett and ubottu
[13:45] <google-nsa> guys can you point me a link to make a local repository manually ? All the docs I've found require internet connection to do it (with apt-miror...)  but I can't access directly to internet
[13:45] <cfhowlett> tygal, happy2help
[13:51] <parmiggiano> google-nsa: i've never tried, but do you need an internet connection for creating a repository with dpkg-dev?
[13:52] <shrumms> sup
[13:53] <parmiggiano> google-nsa: but i guess you already checked http://askubuntu.com/questions/170348/how-to-make-my-own-local-repository
[14:07] <Vera> Hi guys! I was in here last night (it was night for me, at least), trying to solve this problem: http://imgur.com/Og4JwA9
[14:08] <Vera> I'm thinking - can it be a hardware problem? I've just installed ubuntu, and can't seem to get the driver for my external video card going. Could that be the reason?
[14:10] <SanchoPensa> Vera: there is a hardware compatibility list for linux, if your card isnt on it...
[14:14] <Vera> SanchoPensa : It seems like I have two cards (one internal in the motherboard and one "external"), but I only found one of them on the compability list. But I don't know which is which?
[14:15] <SanchoPensa> unplug the external one and type lspci into a terminal
[14:15] <SanchoPensa> Vera:
[14:18] <frudo> hi
[14:21] <frudo> quotatool -u frudo -b -q 20G -l 25G /home  the command not executing  and got error "quotatool: Error while detecting kernel quota version: No such process"
[14:21] <frudo> any tell me how can i solve this error
[14:24] <nomadist> hi!
[14:24] <nomadist> I am using ubuntu 14.04 lts with gnome 3
[14:24] <nomadist> I started the kazam screen recorder
[14:24] <nomadist> but now I cannot find any button to stop its recording
[14:25] <nomadist> if I kill this process from the command line the recording I made would be lost
[14:25] <nomadist> when i reopen the program, it just shows me the same window and option to start a new recording
[14:25] <nomadist> the shortcut super+ctrl+f isnt working
[14:27] <nomadist> in the directory, there is a  *.mux.movie file which is constantly increasing in size.. which means its still recording
[14:27] <nomadist> it creates an mp4 after the recroding stops
[14:27] <nomadist> anyone have any ideas?
[14:28] <parmiggiano> nomadist: do you see a system tray icon for kazam?
[14:28] <parmiggiano> nomadist: in case there is one (as it should be), try a right click
[14:28] <bcvery1> nomadist, super+m   the icon is there
[14:29] <Chuck_Norris> nomadist: if its gnome-shell place the mouse pointer at the bottom of the screen and pshung down, you will see the system try icon there
[14:29] <Chuck_Norris> pushing*
[14:30] <deepubuntu> Hello! :)
[14:30] <nomadist> bcvery1, Chuck_Norris parmiggiano you guys are angels and life savers
[14:30] <deepubuntu> My ubuntu is freezing a lot! :(
[14:30] <nomadist> thank you all this worked! I didn't know
[14:30] <Chuck_Norris> xD ty
[14:31] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: what's your hardware?
[14:31] <deepubuntu> Pentium dual core! 4 GB RAM
[14:32] <deepubuntu> although I am upgrading my system to ubuntu 14.10 but still I want to know what might be the reason of freezing
[14:33] <parmiggiano> deepubuntu: processor and memory should be fine... I'm running roughly the same without freezing problems
[14:33] <deepubuntu> parmiggiano: over heating might be the reason???
[14:34] <compdoc> deepubuntu, a system that old could have bad capacitors on the motherboard and inside the power supply
[14:34] <frudo> anybody have a experience of quotatool
[14:35] <Wangd> I have a question
[14:35] <parmiggiano> do you have a dual-boot setup with a second OS? if yes, do you experience similar problems there?
[14:35] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: yeah, mmm... it could be a proces wich is counsuming 100 % cpu
[14:35] <Wangd> How to install intel fortran??
[14:35] <deepubuntu> Actually I have noticed this issue after making hotspot with kde-nm?
[14:36] <deepubuntu> yes Chuck_Norris I have noticed 100% CPU usage with kde-nm
[14:36] <deepubuntu> parmiggiano: I don't have second OS
[14:36] <Wangd> does anyone could teach me how to install intel fortran?
[14:36] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: check the proces with, htop:  sudo apt-get install htop ; htop
[14:37] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: that's the reason, that's why overheat and freeze
[14:37] <parmiggiano> Wangd: last time I heard about this, there was no ready .deb package available. so, one had to work with an rpm package not orginally made for Ubuntu / Debian.
[14:37] <deepubuntu> okay so I should stop using kde-nm right now?
[14:37] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: yeah
[14:37] <deepubuntu> Chuck_Norris: Thanks!
[14:38] <deepubuntu> is there any alternate way to create hotspot without burning my machine
[14:38] <deepubuntu> ?
[14:38] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: np, i think that is just an applet
[14:38] <Wangd> Thanks for your reply, I goes to the official website of intel and can't find the address to download....
[14:38] <parmiggiano> Wangd: if it's only about performance, I would first try to play with compiler flags... if you really need ifort (e.g. in a collaboration), there are certainly some how-tos online.
[14:38] <Helias> hi all, I executed this command sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx ... (mac_address)
[14:39] <Helias> and now the ethernet doesn't work
[14:39] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: hotspot shield?
[14:39] <Helias> as mac address I used a random address generated by the command: openssl rand -hex 6 | sed 's/\(..\)/\1:/g; s/.$//'
[14:39] <deepubuntu> Chuck_Norris: is this a application??
[14:39] <Helias> as mac address I used a random address generated by the command: openssl rand -hex 6 | sed 's/\(..\)/\1:/g; s/.$//'
[14:39] <BluesKaj_> Helias, run sudo dhclient  eth0
[14:40] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: no, i meant, what is hotspot?
[14:40] <Wangd> sorry, what means how-tos?    actually i need to install the software VASP ,  and it's my first to use Linux...
[14:40] <deepubuntu> haha!! wait! :)
[14:40] <Helias> BluesKa_ I'm running it
[14:41] <Helias> BluesKaj_* it's taking a lot of time...
[14:41] <parmiggiano> Wangd: If the precise compiler choice doesn't matter for you, use gfortran which is in the official repositories
[14:41] <hikenboot_> getting an error trying to open aoe drive in gparted getting partitions(s) 5 on /dev/etherd/e0.1 have been written, but we have been unable to inform the kernel of the change probably because it/they are in use anyone know how to fix. I am trying to access it remotely from a live cd
[14:42] <deepubuntu> Chuck_Norris: By creating hotspot you create your machine as a access point for other devices to use internet!
[14:42] <Wangd> thank you very much, I'll try it now~
[14:42] <parmiggiano> Wangd: to install gfortran, just open the Ubuntu Software Center and search for 'gfortran' ... it should then install with all necessary dependencies.
[14:43] <Wangd> ok, already get it, thanks for your help!!
[14:45] <Helias> @Blueskaj_ I putted the command on /etc/rc.local
[14:45] <Helias> I'm rebooting now
[14:45] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: oh! sry, i really don't know how to do that
[14:45] <deepubuntu> Chuck_Norris: np Thanks for your help though! :)
[14:48] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: but, there is a bug with kde-nm, that's why consume 100 percent
[14:49] <helias> @Blueskaj nothing...
[14:49] <deepubuntu> Has anyone reported that bug??
[14:49] <deepubuntu> Can you give me the link of the bug information ?
[14:49] <helias> BluesKaj_ are you here?
[14:49] <deepubuntu> Chuck_Norris:
[14:49] <Chuck_Norris> maybe if you try to do hotspot in other DE, most probably you will be fine
[14:49] <helias> Guys I don't know ho to resolve.. I've the ethernet that doesn't work, anyone can help me? :P
[14:50] <BluesKaj_> helias, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[14:50] <BluesKaj_> helias, in the terminal
[14:50] <helias> nothing
[14:51] <helias> I know
[14:51] <helias> but nothing...
[14:51] <helias> It doesn't work : /
[14:51] <helias> I can't restore the default settings of eth0?
[14:51] <BluesKaj_> helias, pastebin the output from, lspci | grep -i net
[14:52] <Kartagis> can I convert a Mac format file to Linux format using nano? at the moment I am using nano but I'd like to be able to use vim
[14:53] <helias> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9383202/
[14:54] <helias> but if I run sudo dhclient eth0 it doesn't finish : /
[14:54] <helias> it's running now....
[14:54] <BluesKaj_> helias, sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[14:55] <CJKay> Hi guys. I'm trying to upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS but I'm apparently plagued by hundreds of broken packages that, no matter what permutation of "solutions" I use, refuse to be fixed. Here's my apt.log after a do-release-upgrade: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9383242/
[14:55] <Chuck_Norris> Kartagis: ffs=mac,unix  source: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/File_Format
[14:55] <helias> I already did that in past, I'm retring...
[14:55] <BluesKaj_> CJKay, did you update and upgrade 12.04 first?
[14:56] <helias> nothing..... because eth0 is already up
[14:56] <CJKay> BluesKaj_: Yes. All my packages are completely up to date, and apt-get says no packages need fixing
[14:56] <helias> but it doesn't connect to the net where I'm already connected via wlan
[14:56] <Chuck_Norris> Kartagis: sry it was: ":set ff=unix"
[14:57] <BluesKaj_> helias, reboot the NIC,  sudo dhclient -r eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0
[14:58] <delt> Hello
[14:58] <delt> quick question about dns... how can i force the resolver to use my /etc/resolv.conf and not overwrite it?
[14:58] <helias> I'm running that command, in any case thanks for help :P
[14:58] <delt> i'm having problems with some hosts on my network if it just contains "nameserver 127.0.0.1"
[14:59] <Kartagis> Chuck_Norris: still no :S
[14:59] <Chuck_Norris> Kartagis:  tr '\r' '\n' < macfile.txt > unixfile.txt
[14:59] <Chuck_Norris> Kartagis: awk:   awk '{ gsub("\r", "\n"); print $0;}' macfile.txt > unixfile.txt   source: https://kb.iu.edu/d/agiz
[15:00] <deepubuntu> tr means translator which translates '\r' into '\n' in source file macfile.txt to output file unixfile.txt???
[15:00] <deepubuntu> btw sorry to interrupt you! :( :(
[15:00] <Kartagis> Chuck_Norris++
[15:00] <delt> yeah but his shell redirection isn't right
[15:00] <Kartagis> wee
[15:00] <Kartagis> thanks
[15:01] <delt> oh no wait, it is
[15:01] <delt> anyway, quick question about dns... how can i force the resolver to use my /etc/resolv.conf and not overwrite it?
[15:02] <Chuck_Norris> Kartagis: np
[15:03] <Chuck_Norris> deepubuntu: got no idea, but does it jobs xD
[15:04] <helias> nothing to do BluesKaj_ =(
[15:05] <BluesKaj_> helias, then it could be a cable connect problem
[15:06] <helias> mhmm ok I try to reconnect the ethernet..
[15:06] <BluesKaj_> BBL
[15:06] <helias> ?
[15:16] <rustyraptor> I just installed libcuda for my nvidia card. But it seems like it removed some packages when I did it.
[15:17] <rustyraptor> and now when i try to login to my account it won't work. It just goes back to login.
[15:17] <rustyraptor> X crashed :\
[15:19] <rustyraptor> actually i remember now one of the programs it removed was wine so I assume it must have been something wine depends on. I will try installing wine and see if that works.
[15:20] <generique> is there a way to install apt on a broken machine ?
[15:20] <generique> i cleaned everything up except for few bin's
[15:20] <generique> cause the box was not running
[15:21] <generique> but dpkg complains about problems in /var/lib/dpkg
[15:22] <generique> apt from scratch only got me to debian from scratch ~500megs
[15:23] <BluesKaj> rustyraptor, ctrl+alt+F1 to F6, login, then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, then reboot
[15:23] <generique> but dpkg complains about problems in /var/lib/dpkg/status usw
[15:23] <generique> touch status worked for some things
[15:23] <rypervenche> generique: We would need actual errors and logs. You might need to compile from source or copy the necessary binaries from another machine.
[15:24] <AnonUnk> check this out.. someone floodding #windows
[15:24] <rustyraptor> BluesKaj I did that first thing. What I meant was I was thinking maybe the driver manager would help.
[15:24] <rustyraptor> but yeah that did not work.
[15:24] <generique> rypervenche: howto's anywhere ?
[15:24] <generique> rypervenche: will restart soon .. so i can tell you exactly
[15:25] <BluesKaj> rustyraptor, which gpu driver are you using?
[15:25] <generique> compiled dpkg form source
[15:25] <generique> but apt won't compile and dpkg didn't install it :(
[15:25] <k_sze> ok... I'm running into some kind of paradox.
[15:26] <k_sze> I installed Unicorn on my rMBP, but there's no wifi interface.
[15:28] <rustyraptor> BluesKaj well I wan using the nonfree drivers. nvidia-331 I believe.
[15:29] <rustyraptor> But I am not sure what has become of them lol. A lot seemed to have changed when I installed cuda.
[15:29] <anonymous_linux> hai
[15:29] <redss> ciao a tutti
[15:29] <pbx> from the shell, how do i see what dns servers my network setup is using?
[15:29] <tygal> just an fyi yumi prompts space for persistence when installing a live iso, i feel dumb
[15:29] <redss> qualche italiano esperto di ubuntu? ho un po di problemi con libimobiledevice
[15:29] <somsip> !it | redss
[15:30] <redss> ok grazie
[15:31] <redss> mi puoi dire dove lo posso trovare il canale di ubuntu in italiano?'ù
[15:32] <BluesKaj> rustyraptor, cuda is an addon afaik, it shouldn't change the graphics too much and especially on boot
[15:34] <rustyraptor> BluesKaj well i installed a few other libraries that have to do with cuda as well. Anyhow I am going to see if I managed to fix it so brb.
[15:35] <Helos> Test Test
[15:35] <rypervenche> pbx: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[15:36] <squinty> generique: maybe try http://packages.ubuntu.com/   if you search for a package you want, the site will provide a .deb download link
[15:36] <rypervenche> squinty: I don't think he can install packages.
[15:36] <pbx> rypervenche, thanks
[15:37] <rypervenche> generique: I'm spinning up an Ubuntu machine to take a look.
[15:37] <generique> squinty:rypervenche back soon .. bye
[15:38] <treehau55> how can I make a ubuntu ISO on a MAC to work on a LINUX machine?
[15:38] <treehau55> bootable flash drive*
[15:39] <squinty> !mac > squinty
[15:40] <treehau55> will unetbootin do the trick?
[15:40] <reisio> treehau55: should, yup
[15:40] <ServerSage> treehau55: http://goo.gl/Fip2k
[15:41] <treehau55> ServerSage: that's to work ON a mac, I need to make the flash drive on the mac, but have it work for a LINUX machine
[15:41] <reisio> treehau55: unetbootin should work fine
[15:41] <treehau55> Ok, ty all
[15:41] <squinty> http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[15:41] <ServerSage> treehau55: That link I sent is to copy and ISO to a USB stick and boot it on a PC.
[15:41] <rustyraptor> BluesKaj ah my attempt failed. Is there anyway to reset the configuration. I tried deleting xorg.conf but that didn't work :/
[15:42] <rustyraptor> could it be user specific? Because the guest account works somehow
[15:42] <BluesKaj> rustyraptor, try removing cuda first, then if you still have trouble remove and reinstall nvidia-331
[15:43] <rustyraptor> ok
[15:44] <BluesKaj> ok, gotta go... errands to do for a bit
[15:50] <treehau55> reisio: I tried just now to boot it up, it says 'missing operating system'
[15:51] <generiqe> my chroot host doesn't connect to the net any longer .. well well nice university's
[15:51] <jsheldon> If anyone's having the xubuntu not waking up from sleep problem when a laptop lid is closed, there's a new idea someone posted on 11/21 that worked for me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1259339
[15:51] <generiqe> here in austria
[15:51] <generiqe> but that means i cant fix it
[15:52] <Guest52368> Hi, I am trying to install build-essentials and is getting the following error http://pastebin.com/kdDjA9ah
[15:52] <Guest52368> can anybody help ?
[15:52] <generiqe> i wonder why it stopped working
[15:52] <reisio> treehau55: use dd, then, just be careful
[15:52] <reisio> treehau55: also make sure you have the mac image :)
[15:52] <generiqe> perhaps i will try another mac address
[15:52] <reisio> treehau55: oh sorry you want the non-mac :p
[15:52] <treehau55> yes
[15:52] <reisio> or was it? :p
[15:52] <treehau55> from mac, to pc
[15:53] <zy3pD3> do i need dnsmasq to resolve the entries of the /etc/hosts file?
[15:53] <reisio> the mac image is still for ubuntu, so I s'pose you'd still want it
[15:53] <treehau55> what would be the dd command?
[15:54] <rypervenche> zy3pD3: Nope.
[15:54] <treehau55> ah perfect found a good guide http://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-drive-for-pc-on-a-mac--cms-21187
[15:55] <reisio> yes, why rely on experienced users when you can use a blog :p
[16:00] <rustyraptor> when I try to install my nvidia drivers I am getting an error that says. Error writing '/tmp/mkinitramfs... no space left on device. Does that mean my ram is full??
[16:00] <rabbit_> hi! lxsession settings are different for each desktop environment you have installed, right? If sO
[16:00] <rabbit_> is there a way to reset the defaults for lxsession from a different desktop environment (for example, reset the lubuntu defaults while using lubuntu netbook)
[16:00] <rustyraptor> I have a guest session open so could that be the reason?
[16:00] <pbx> rustyraptor, no, /tmp is on your HD
[16:00] <rabbit_> when it says that to me it means my hard drive is full
[16:01] <pbx> rustyraptor, sounds like you need to clear some space if your drive is filling on a driver install.  10% free is a good minimum
[16:02] <rustyraptor> oh no im getting the same error when I try to remove a package :(
[16:02] <rustyraptor> I think i can delete some movies though.
[16:02] <rabbit_> yeah make some space and then try again :)
[16:02] <generiqe> why does freenode do a portscan on my machine ??
[16:03] <Guest52368> Forgive my ignorance but I am trying to install build-essentials and is getting the following error http://pastebin.com/kdDjA9ah - can anyone help ?
[16:04] <ash`> Guest52368: what happens when you run that command it suggests?
[16:04] <SchrodingersScat> generiqe: to see if you are going through a proxy, can ask #freenode for freenode specific questions
[16:04] <Guest52368> ash` the pastebin has the output
[16:05] <SchrodingersScat> Guest52368: and it says: You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these
[16:05] <generiqe> SchrodingersScat: well what does portscan and proxy have in common ???
[16:06] <rustyraptor> well I just removed a few GB of movies and videos.
[16:06] <beans> http://www.geocities.ws/foolsgold/
[16:06] <rustyraptor> same error
[16:06] <beans> www.gofundme.com/gysbo4
[16:07] <Guest52368> SchrodingersScat: I tried that, but it says this again http://pastebin.com/2y9vJQw2
[16:07] <reisio> beans: more work, less IRC
[16:07] <beans> http://www.geocities.ws/foolsgold/
[16:07] <rustyraptor> oh my. Even when I try to press tab in the terminal to complete a line. It says cannot creat temp file for here-document : no space left on device.
[16:07] <beans> www.gofundme/gysbo4
[16:07] <SchrodingersScat> generiqe: they want to know if your ip is being used as a proxy to let others connect to freenode, which afaik is against their ToS or similar.  They should have a link that explains it, http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#proxies

[16:08] <CJKay> Hi guys. I'm trying to upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS but I'm apparently plagued by hundreds of broken packages that, no matter what permutation of "solutions" I use, refuse to be fixed. Here's my apt.log after a do-release-upgrade: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9383242/
[16:08] <rustyraptor> ok brb
[16:08] <beans> but please check it out if you can
[16:08] <daftykins> beans: no, leave.
[16:08] <beans> I wouldnt ask anybody to help out with something they cant afford to do
[16:09] <beans> thanks for your timeanyways
[16:10] <Guest52368> SchrodingersScat: any insight ?
[16:11] <SchrodingersScat> Guest52368: nope, sorry, should probably ask about that upstart problem.
[16:11] <treehau55> this guide worked like a charm, http://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-drive-for-pc-on-a-mac--cms-21187
[16:11] <Guest52368> SchrodingersScat: hmm ok, thanks. will try to google that.
[16:16] <rustyraptor> thanks guys it's fixed :D
[16:16] <reisio> gj
[16:16] <rustyraptor> BluesKaj the driver is not working too thanks so much.
[16:16] <bsundsru> we're seeing an issue on several systems where the hostname is getting reset to localhost on reboot
[16:16] <rustyraptor> now*
[16:16] <reisio> bsundsru: neat
[16:17] <bsundsru> its set via /etc/hostname and in /etc/hosts, but after 1-10 reboots it's gone
[16:17] <bsundsru> and /etc/hostname is back to 'localhost'
[16:17] <daskdt> Anyone know of any free VPN/Server hosts?
[16:17] <daftykins> daskdt: off topic.
[16:18] <bsundsru> this also only just started happening in the last few days, though looking at the changes to the packages in the updates repo I can't see anything that would affect us :-/
[16:19] <OerHeks> daskdt, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VPNServer
[16:21] <daskdt> OerHeks: Thanks, I meant VPS not VPN. :P
[16:24] <rypervenche> daskdt: You're probably going to have to pay for one. There are some cheap ones out there for like $3/month. Or you can set up your own using openVPN, but you would need a machine in another location.
[16:27] <Chuck_Norris> daskdt: try:  https://www.frootvpn.com/
[16:27] <daskdt> VPS not VPN sorry.
[16:27] <daskdt> I already have 3 VPNs
[16:28] <Chuck_Norris> lo)
[16:29] <gpg> hey.. did someone got wifi broken in 'Hard blocked: yes' mode after the last update on 14.04?
[16:29] <Chuck_Norris> well, try: http://000webhost.com
[16:31] <rypervenche> daskdt: Oh, sorry. No, you'll have to pay for one, or find a friend who has a hypervisor that would be willing to give you a VM.
[16:33] <Chuck_Norris> daskdt: yeah! for a full feature vps you will have to pay, some vps could gives you free access to a number of things like ftp, http, php, mysql but they won't give you ssh access -.-
[16:36] <lhunath> how do I link against libcrypto when I have libssl-dev installed?  gcc -lcrypto fails with the linker not finding the symbols - libcrypto appears to be installed in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu and that appears to be part of the search path...

[16:40] <cfhowlett> lhunath, thank you
[16:40] <gpg> maybe you need to move the linking part after the -o <object>
[16:41] <lhunath> cfhowlett: it's 3 lines of text.  you drown easily.
[16:42] <lhunath> here's the output of -Xlinker --verbose: http://stuff.lhunath.com/verbose.log
[16:42] <lhunath> gpg: I can try that.
[16:42] <wagtono> hi
[16:44] <gpg> or put -L /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
[16:44] <gpg> before the -lcrypto
[16:44] <gpg> no one using T430 and no wifi after upgrade?
[16:47] <lhunath> gpg: putting the -lcrypto at the end appears to help!  great.
[16:47] <lhunath> thanks a lot.
[16:47] <gpg> lhunath: :D you know about wifi adaptors? you can pay with karma
[16:48] <lhunath> I couldn't even begin to guess.

[16:56] <BluesKaj> gpg, which wifi card, lspci | grep -i net
[16:56] <bynarie> i need help installing google earth 64 .deb ... it keeps tellin me dependency problems. i run apt-get -f install.. ive installed the 32 bit libraries.. it will not install
[16:56] <bynarie> just keeps saying dependencies not met
[16:58] <bynarie> ha! i got it
[16:58] <BluesKaj> bynarie, lsb_core installed?
[16:58] <bynarie> nevermind
[16:58] <bynarie> yes
[16:59] <bynarie> even the ubuntu documentation was wrong
[16:59] <bynarie> i had to install a ton of 32bit packages
[16:59] <bynarie> thank you tho BluesKaj
[17:00] <BluesKaj> bynarie, I gave up on google earth, google maps does the job in my case
[17:01] <BluesKaj> google earth gets left behind after most upgrades, so trying to keep it up to date became a pita
[17:02] <gpg> BluesKaj: http://fpaste.org/157018/79888814/
[17:03] <gpg> http://ur1.ca/izziq also, but my physical switch is on

[17:09] <BluesKaj> gpg, http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi
[17:10] <daftykins> gpg: can you grep lsmod for lenovo, thinkpad, acpi, see if you can find a module with a combo like that?
[17:12] <daftykins> ho-hum peeps don't want their problems resolved :P
[17:16] <gpg> daftykins: yes.. lenovo, I have thinkpad_acpi probed
[17:17] <gpg> BluesKaj: iwldvm is also loaded.. with mac80211 and iwldvm
[17:18] <xubuntu_> i am king
[17:18] <xubuntu_> ._>
[17:19] <daftykins> gpg: if you remove it temporarily, does the wifi get unblocked?
[17:19] <daftykins> gpg: sudo modprobe -r thinkpad_acpi
[17:20] <gpg> daftykins: it's in use.. it fatals on -r
[17:21] <daftykins> gpg: blacklist at boot time? i've read about the module blocking wifi, only a recompile of it to leave the wifi driver alone worked, from what i read somewhere

[17:22] <daftykins> CrisAllen: no thanks
[17:24] <CrisAllen> join #linux-ar
[17:24] <daftykins> CrisAllen: /join
[17:24] <CrisAllen> ah, gracias
[17:24] <daftykins> CrisAllen: and use status windows in future please
[17:28]  * oldIT78 bows to all the nice people. 
[17:28] <gpg> daftykins: no avail, acpi is not blockign wifi..
[17:32] <daftykins> gpg: ah, even after an rfkill unblock all?
[17:32] <oldIT78> Okay, so in trying to troubleshoot a shutdown error I uninstaled modem-manager .... which i thought was only used for laptops. Since I have a desktop and dont use mobile computer I thought this would be fine. Nope, no internet when I restarted. (still got the shutdown hang though) MORE importantly. When I restarted and installed modem manager, first by using my hardwired ethernet connection, I then restarted again .... only to find that my Ku
[17:32] <gpg> yes..
[17:32] <daftykins> ok, it was worth a go
[17:33] <daftykins> oldIT78: "that my Ku..." you got cut off due to length limits
[17:33] <oldIT78>  install was missing from grub. Can anyone help me get it back? Thanks.
[17:33] <oldIT78> kubuntu that is
[17:34] <gurhan> slm
[17:34] <ubuntu0001> Can I use the 12.10 LTS repositories with a 13.04 version of Ubuntu?
[17:35] <cfhowlett> ubuntu0001, mixing version repos is unwise
[17:36] <Pici> ubuntu0001: Also, 12.10 is not an LTS
[17:36] <Pici> nor is it supported.
[17:36] <daftykins> ubuntu0001: both those releases are EOL and dead. you can't use them anymore
[17:36] <daftykins> !eol
[17:37] <ubuntu0001> Only for security updates, because 13.04 was the last version of ubuntu to run on the nexus 7
[17:37] <oldIT78> Was my question too vague?
[17:38] <vasari> hi
[17:39] <vasari> what was the topic again
[17:39] <ubuntu0001> daftykins: Youtube videos show the nexus 7 {older version} running ubuntu smoothly, then the project was abandoned / 'moved on to ubuntu touch' and 13.04 remains the last release to run out of the box
[17:39] <ubuntu0001> Pici: I was hoping to use the LTS repositories for security updates because of the end of life
[17:39] <daftykins> ubuntu0001: oh, good luck with that then. answer still stands
[17:40] <vasari> better the ubuntu kali is far better on nexus
[17:40] <daftykins> ubuntu0001: nope that'll break big time. either move to touch ( #ubuntu-touch ) or go back to android
[17:40] <ubuntu0001> daftykins: sorry, was directed here from #ubuntu-touch
[17:40] <ubuntu0001> daftykins: they advise I ask here if it is possible to use an older LTS repository for security updates
[17:40] <daftykins> that seems highly unlikely
[17:41] <lovezrs> anyone here
[17:41] <daftykins> nope all dead.
[17:41] <vasari> yes all dead
[17:41] <lovezrs> I want to change my lightdm theme...
[17:42] <redss> please i need help with libimobiledevice anyone can help me??ù
[17:42] <lovezrs> What should i do
[17:42] <ubuntu0001> daftykins: are you sure it will not work?
[17:42] <daftykins> ubuntu0001: it's an utterly terrible idea
[17:42] <ubuntu0001> tell me why
[17:42] <vasari> i want to install win 8 on ubuntu
[17:42] <vasari> any help
[17:43] <daftykins> vasari: download virtualbox
[17:43] <vasari> what is it
[17:43] <lovezrs> use a copy win8?
[17:43] <daftykins> http://virtualbox.org
[17:45] <Pici> ubuntu0001: you shouldn't mix repositories designed for older releases. Version numbers and dependencies differ and you end up making a mess of your install.
[17:45] <ubuntu0001> daftykins: what would happen if I went used an older repository {only for security updates}?
[17:45] <Pici> s/older/others/
[17:46] <lovezrs> anybody has  a windowsphone ?
[17:46] <ubuntu0001> Pici: thank you
[17:46] <lovezrs> Can you connect your windowsphone to Ubuntu?
[17:46] <lovezrs> I just can't mount it
[17:46] <ubuntu0001> Pici: It is a shame Ubuntu was replaced with a crippled Ubuntu touch version
[17:46] <daftykins> lovezrs: version?
[17:46] <ubuntu0001> Pici: it is like going from Windows 8 to Windows RT
[17:46] <lovezrs> daftykins, ubuntu 14.04
[17:47] <lovezrs> daftykins, and windowsphone8.1
[17:47] <lovezrs> lumia520
[17:47] <daftykins> lovezrs: read the output of "dmesg | tail" after plugging it in, maybe pastebin it ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/ )
[17:47] <squinty> oldIT78:   you can check to see if the Kubuntu install is recognized by typing   sudo os-prober in a terminal.  or you can also try   sudo update-grub   (which will automatically run os-prober as well)  in either case see if the Kubuntu install is displayed.  (the latter command will update your grub if Kubuntu is found)
[17:48] <lovezrs> daftykins, wait a moment, I am a fish,and My English is not good
[17:49] <daftykins> lovezrs: what language do you speak?

[17:51] <forces> does anyone know how to open the guest session on Google Chrome? not chromium
[17:51] <daftykins> lovezrs: looks ok, and "mount" ?
[17:52] <lovezrs> daftykins, Let me try
[17:52] <lovezrs> daftykins, I mean...what should I type in the terminal
[17:52] <Elimin8er> I know this question may be out of place. but I cant get help anyplace else I have tried: can anyone tell me is there something I can do about my gnome tweekbox settings for extentions that are not keeping.. I must restart them on each reboot.. ? they worked for a bit then stoped withen the past few days. ??
[17:53] <daftykins> lovezrs: i can understand you speak another language, but how hard is it to understand that i said "mount" ? :P
[17:54] <lovezrs> daftykins, Ubuntu mounts it ,but shows"unkown device"
[17:54] <lovezrs> daftykins, Ok,let me think ,thanks
[17:57] <lovezrs> daftykins, I so sorry to disturb you again
[17:57] <lovezrs> disturb
[17:58] <lovezrs> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9385290/

[18:02] <[GuS]> I have this problems since todays upgrade: libc6-dev : Depends: libc6 (= 2.19-10ubuntu2.1) but 2.19-10ubuntu2 is to be installed
[18:12] <lovezrs> dead man - -
[18:17] <heyiashello> can someone do me a favour and post the number from this ad please , it's hidden i've tried 3 browsers and im in a hurry http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/claremont/property-for-rent/spacious-1bdr-unit-in-claremont-/1052878197
[18:18] <SchrodingersScat> !spam | heyiashello
[18:18] <heyiashello> truely it's not spam
[18:18] <heyiashello> how could i benefit from that
[18:18] <heyiashello> just in a hurry and i need hte number
[18:18] <SchrodingersScat> heyiashello: how is it related to ubuntu?
[18:19] <Taggnostr2> hello
[18:19] <heyiashello> it's not haha i just clicked on the most populous channel
[18:19] <heyiashello> best chance
[18:19] <SchrodingersScat> !support | heyiashello
[18:19] <SchrodingersScat> !guidelines | heyiashello
[18:19] <heyiashello> sigh
[18:20] <heyiashello> would you know how to deal with the software problem ?
[18:20] <heyiashello> it's windows though haha
[18:20] <Taggnostr2> I saw that this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/900384 got fixed 3 days ago.  How long does it usually take before the update is available in the repo (so that I can get it through apt-get)?
[18:20] <SchrodingersScat> !offtopic | heyiashello: you haven't described a software problem, and you are being offtopic
[18:20] <heyiashello> it is a software program if you can't click on the number cause of java or somethign
[18:21] <heyiashello> doesn't matter i'll find somewhere else
[18:21] <yeats> heyiashello: ubuntu support only
[18:21] <rical> Hi, I found an old machine running 10.11 and I would like to dist-upgrade it but all mirrors it had back in the days are broken. Is there any mirrors online today I can use for upgrading it?
[18:21] <yeats> !eolupgrade | rical
[18:21] <ikonia> rabbit_: I wouldn't advise upgrading from that release.
[18:22] <rabbit_> ?
[18:22] <ikonia> sorry rical
[18:22] <ikonia> not rabbit_
[18:22] <rabbit_> np
[18:22] <ikonia> rical:  I wouldn't advise upgrading from that release.
[18:22] <rical> well, it's only running a hand full of packages so I think it should be fine
[18:22] <ikonia> rical: I don't think it will be fine
[18:22] <ikonia> quite the opposite
[18:23] <ikonia> if it's only a handfull of packges, backup the data and clean install it
[18:26] <trism> Taggnostr2: which version of ubuntu? that bug didn't get fixed so much as marked fixed because of the resolution of bug 898003 , since usbip is in the kernel tree now in utopic (in linux-tools-common)
[18:27] <Taggnostr2> trism, 14.10
[18:27] <trism> Taggnostr2: then it should already be there, just install linux-tools-common to get those binaries
[18:27] <Taggnostr2> I did but it still doesn't work
[18:28] <Taggnostr2> or actually, it kind of works, but it's missing usbip_bind_driver so I can't bind the drivers...
[18:28] <Taggnostr2> in the usbip package there is a usbip_bind_driver
[18:29] <modlin> Hi hello
[18:30] <modlin> I need help within installation of Ubuntu. Im trying to install it on external hard drive.
[18:30] <daftykins> where do you get stuck?
[18:30] <ikonia> modlin: it's not something I'd suggest you do unless your system can boot from an external drive and you can pay attention to the details in the install routine
[18:30] <modlin> But iam afraid that it would mess with my windows installation
[18:31] <daftykins> modlin: so disconnect that disk
[18:31] <modlin> i cannot bc it is build in my laptop
[18:31] <Noveau> honestly, don't install ubuntu on external drive
[18:31] <Noveau> that is not clever
[18:31] <Noveau> lol
[18:31] <daftykins> Noveau: don't be silly
[18:31] <ikonia> Noveau: errr it's a fine idea
[18:31] <ikonia> if you meet the requirements
[18:32] <modlin> look it is my company computer and i use it for perosnal usage
[18:32] <Noveau> i honestly find them too slow unless its usb 3.0 or something
[18:32] <ikonia> modlin: get a backup of your windows disk
[18:32] <ikonia> modlin: make sure you do that before doing anything else
[18:32] <modlin> i cant it is my company computer and it is locked by macafee encryption system
[18:32] <Noveau> you can still back it up
[18:32] <ikonia> modlin: ok - so my advice is do not touch this
[18:32] <Noveau> lol
[18:32] <daftykins> modlin: then you shouldn't really be doing this on it either.
[18:32] <trism> Taggnostr2: I see in an older debian patch message that: "usbip_bind_driver (formerly usbip_attach_driver) was merged into the usbip command. Remove the separate man page for it." so you might want to take a look at the usbip manpage to see if the functionality is there
[18:32] <modlin> :)
[18:33] <ikonia> Noveau: not sure why you keep laughing when you are making silly statements
[18:33] <modlin> i know but im quite experienced windows and linux user so my point is
[18:33] <ikonia> modlin: if you're experienced, what's the problem ?
[18:33] <modlin> (more windows than linux)
[18:33] <Taggnostr2> trism, I took a quick look but I haven't seen anything, I'm going to double check -- thanks for the suggestion
[18:34] <modlin> the problem is that in installation configuration wizard i made partitions needed for instalation
[18:34] <ikonia> modlin: that sounds good
[18:34] <modlin> 500mb for boot 2gb for swap and rest ist ext4 mounted on /
[18:34] <ikonia> modlin: ok ?
[18:34] <ikonia> modlin: all sounding good so far
[18:35] <Jordan_U> modlin: It rarely makes sense to have a separate /boot/ partition.
[18:35] <modlin> the drive is sandisk super ultra usb 3.0 130mb r and 50mb w speeds
[18:35] <Noveau> perfect disk :)
[18:35] <ikonia> modlin: still sounding good
[18:35] <Noveau> nice.
[18:35] <ikonia> modlin: what's the actual issue ?
[18:35] <modlin> real issue :
[18:35] <Taggnostr2> trism, found it but it gives me an error, I'll try to figure out what's wrong
[18:36] <modlin> i also choose "device to install boot program" to this external drive
[18:37] <modlin> but im still afraid that in some way it would corrupt my widnows datra
[18:37] <modlin> data
[18:37] <Jordan_U> modlin: Is this a BIOS based or UEFI based machine?
[18:37] <ikonia> modlin: which is why I'm advising you not to do it
[18:37] <ikonia> modlin: if you pay attention it will not touch the windows disk
[18:37] <ikonia> modlin: as this is your work machine, encrypted, I'd advise you if in any doubt, don't touch it
[18:38] <modlin> i know but my company said that i have to uninstall steam, pokerstars etc.,
[18:38] <ikonia> modlin: then do not do this
[18:38] <daftykins> modlin: and what does that have to do with ubuntu?
[18:38] <modlin> :(
[18:38] <ikonia> I don't think we can help any more than that, as this is your own issue
[18:38] <modlin> that ubuntu is great system to keepit on externaldrive
[18:39] <ikonia> modlin: then do it
[18:39] <daftykins> yeah totally nonsensical.
[18:39] <ikonia> modlin: not sure what you want us to say / do
[18:39] <Jordan_U> modlin: Why not prepare your Ubuntu installation from another machine (like one you have at home)?
[18:39] <modlin> hmmm
[18:40] <modlin> i assume that i need to do installation process on computer which i would use ubuntu
[18:40] <ikonia> modlin: always better to do so if you can, but if in doubt/fear, be safe
[18:41] <modlin> at the moment i have ubuntu in try mode run on another external pendrvie but it is like usb 2.0 chinese no name drive
[18:41] <Jordan_U> modlin: Nope. The only hardware specific configuration that Ubuntu stores at install time is BIOS vs UEFI (if you install Ubuntu from a UEFI system it won't be bootable via BIOS and visa-versa).
[18:41] <modlin> thanks to my company i have regular bios without secureboot
[18:41] <modlin> where i can just choose the boot device
[18:42] <daftykins> secureboot isn't even a problem for modern Linux distros
[18:42] <modlin> so i see two resolutions
[18:42] <daftykins> hasn't been for 2 years
[18:42] <modlin> 1) create another live cd ubuntu pendrive bc it keeps my data like browser history
[18:42] <Jordan_U> modlin: Then boot Ubuntu's installer via BIOS (even if you have UEFI firmware you can usually do this) and install to the external, and you should be good to go.
[18:43] <modlin> 2) install ubuntu using another computer
[18:43] <ikonia> 3.) don't use ubuntu on your work machine and risk issues with your job
[18:43] <modlin> so if i install it using another computer i will be able to install all drivers without problem
[18:44] <modlin> i mean i would borrow laptop from my friend then do this process and then run this prepared pendrive without any problems or lower the performance
[18:44] <modlin> ?
[18:44] <ikonia> modlin: somethings such as network cards, graphics drivers, screen resolution etc may need to be reconfigured
[18:45] <modlin> thats the point
[18:45] <modlin> bc if you install windows on another computer and then move hard drive to another computer performance would suck
[18:45] <ikonia> you're not using windows
[18:45] <ikonia> so don't think about that, it has no value
[18:46] <Jordan_U> modlin: If you configure proprietary drivers, especially Nvidia/ATI graphics drivers, you may have problems when moving the USB drive to another machine. If you stick with Free drivers (the default after a fresh install) you can hop around machines at will, if you configure proprietary drivers you'll want to install them while booted from your work computer, and you may not be able to as easily hop to other machines ...
[18:46] <Jordan_U> ... afterward (though that doesn't sound like it's much of a concern to you).
[18:46] <modlin> hmmmm
[18:47] <modlin> i wolud try this trick with installation on external computer and then connectiong to the one i wanna use
[18:50] <modlin> OK thanks for help. To sum it up i would say what i want to do.
[18:51] <kausik> How can i be a part of a  ubuntu development team
[18:51] <kausik> ??
[18:52] <redss>  please help i have this errore on ubuntu 14 with libimobiledevice :could not connect to lockdown,error code -2
[18:52] <modlin> Im going to run ubuntu live CD on old toshiba computer and then instal it on my superfast new pendrive. After i install it i will connect this pendrive to my prime computer lenovo t440s. I hope that it would work and the system will be fast as it should be.
[18:52] <modlin> What do you think?
[18:52] <bekks> redss: You get that error when doing what?
[18:53] <modlin> On pendrive 32GB i have 2GB for swap 500mb EXT4 on /boot and 29GB EXT4 on /

[18:53] <redss> mount activate iphone
[18:54] <bekks> redss: Can you form a full description of what you are doing please?
[18:54] <tms> redss: what kind of device? What version of Ubuntu, etc.
[18:55] <bekks> redss: Keep it in this channel please, I am not giving personal support in a query.
[18:55] <daftykins> modlin: swap on a flash drive is a very bad idea
[18:55] <bekks> redss: Keep it in this channel, thank you.
[18:55] <daftykins> redss: you can't activate an iPhone from ubuntu, afaik
[18:56] <daftykins> depending on what you mean by 'activate'
[18:56] <Jordan_U> modlin: Sounds like you have the technical details worked out (on your own for the work issues this may still cause). I still don't understand why you want a separate /boot/ partition though.
[18:56] <bekks> You need iTunes for activating an iPhone, thats correct.
[18:56] <redss> i need help for activate my iphone with libimobiledeviceactivation
[18:56] <bekks> redss: Do not query me again.
[18:56] <redss> device iphone 5 ios 8.1 ubuntu 14
[18:56] <bekks> redss: You cannot activate an iPhone without iTunes.

[19:13] <flexus> hi, need some first time bluetooth assistance on notebook with bt dongle and bt speakers
[19:13] <tichassfront> What do you think, guys? http://payripo.com/?share=7073 Is this real or just another bullshit?
[19:13] <flexus> blueman assistant cant find the speakers
[19:15] <flexus> speakers are A2DP and AVRCP
[19:16] <hunt_> ,y mouse isnt getting picked up for some reason, could someone assist?
[19:17] <lotuspsychje> hunt_: what kind of mouse is this?
[19:17] <flexus> hunt_: usb?
[19:17] <flexus> then check lsusb
[19:17] <david313> hi
[19:18] <lotuspsychje> flexus: bt drivers show in additional drivers?
[19:18] <flexus> lotuspsychje: hm i should
[19:18] <flexus> check
[19:19] <lotuspsychje> flexus: maybe tail -f /var/log
[19:19] <lotuspsychje> dmesg for realtime errors
[19:19]  * XeBlackWater is away: I'm busy
[19:20] <lotuspsychje> flexus: tail -f /var/log/dmesg and fool around with bt a bit
[19:21] <flexus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9386228/
[19:21] <flexus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9386231/
[19:21] <flexus> last one is with replugged dongle
[19:22] <lotuspsychje> bbl sorry
[19:23] <flexus> np
[19:24] <flexus> btw its 14.04
[19:27] <hunt_> shows up in lsusb
[19:27] <hunt_> but doesnt control the mouse
[19:27] <hunt_> for some reason
[19:28] <Jordan_U> hunt_: Is the lazer of the mouse on?
[19:28] <hunt_> Jordan_U: no its not
[19:28] <hunt_> Jordan_U: other lights are
[19:28] <flexus> which mouse model ?
[19:28] <hunt_> flexus: logitech g9x
[19:28] <Jordan_U> hunt_: Does clicking the mouse button cause a mouse click?
[19:28] <hunt_> Jordan_U: no
[19:29] <bekks> hunt_: Sounds like a dead battery.
[19:29] <hunt_> bekks: its usb though?
[19:29] <flexus> rebootet the machine?
[19:29] <flexus> had such issue once, rebootet, worked
[19:29] <bekks> flexus: No need necessary for USB devices. :)
[19:29] <hunt_> flexus: do you think that might actually help? usually thats not supposed to do anything rihgt?
[19:29] <marioxcc> Hi. Are there binary file differencing free software programs apart from xdelta, open-vcdiff, and bsdiff?. Xdelta3 doesn't seems to work very well on large files. Is there a program like this that handles large files better?.
[19:30] <bekks> marioxcc: xdelta.
[19:30] <Jordan_U> hunt_: Please pastebin the output from "lsusb". From some quick searching it looks like this mouse presents itself as two devices, a mouse and a keyboard.
[19:30] <marioxcc> bekks: Thanks, but I tried xdelta and it's not working very good for large files.
[19:30] <marioxcc> bekks: see what I wrote :).
[19:30] <hunt_> Jordan_U: http://cursors.io/
[19:30] <hunt_> shit
[19:30] <flexus> had the issue with synaptics, after reboot it worked
[19:30] <hunt_> wrong link
[19:30] <hunt_> Jordan_U: http://ix.io/s
[19:31] <bekks> marioxcc: It works fine here, on large files, for years now.
[19:31] <hunt_> flexus: i do have synaptics
[19:32] <marioxcc> bekks: Which options do you use? I tried raising the buffer with -B, but it produces files as large as the destination, despite that there's high similarity.
[19:32] <hunt_> i think im going to give a reboot a go
[19:33] <BinaryMaster> Question: I have mariadb installed and tried to install mysql-workbench now whenever I run an apt command I get a message telling me to run apt-get -f install which is failing I have two unmet dependencies libmysqlclient16:i386 and mariadb-common any ideas on how I can fix this? I have tried apt-get autoremove, apt-get purge mysql-workbench but nothing seems to be helping
[19:33] <Jordan_U> hunt_: Please try running "xev", then move your cursor into the windo xev pops up and start pressing all the buttons on the mouse to see if any of them produce any output (look for output in the terminal you ran xev from).
[19:33] <bekks> marioxcc: How do you know that there is a high similarity? I bet xdelta knows better :)
[19:33] <hunt_> Jordan_U: no output
[19:33] <hunt_> Jordan_U: from this mouse i mean
[19:34] <Jordan_U> hunt_: This *extremely old* post might provide helpful information: http://morecode.wordpress.com/2007/11/22/logitech-g9-on-linux/ but I would be careful about following the instructions exactly given that this is from 2007 and a *lot* has changed since then.
[19:34] <hunt_> Jordan_U: im going to give it a reboot, so ill miss any messages for the next several seconds
[19:35] <marioxcc> bekks: Only some files are changed, and xdelta 1 produces a much smaller patch, but it's unmaintained.
[19:37] <bekks> marioxcc: So which options are you using, for xdelta3?
[19:37] <marioxcc> bekks: "xdelta3 -B 536870912 -s wesnoth-1.11.16.tar wesnoth-1.11.17.tar xdelta3_512_MiB.xdelta"
[19:38] <marioxcc> the output file has a size of 256 MB.
[19:38] <marioxcc> While the official wesnoth patch (With Xdelta 1) has a size of 133 KB.
[19:38] <marioxcc> (1 MB = 1E6 B)
[19:39] <marioxcc> bekks: what settings do you recommend using?
[19:41] <Jordan_U> marioxcc: What is your end goal?
[19:42] <marioxcc> Jordan_U: "end goal"?
[19:42] <marioxcc> I want to make more space efficient delta files.
[19:43] <Jordan_U> marioxcc: Why do you want delta files? What are you trying to accomplish?
[19:43] <marioxcc> bekks: sorry, the official delta is of 1.2 MB, but that's still more than 2 orders of magnitude less than what xdelta3 generates
[19:44] <Jordan_U> marioxcc: For wesnoth specifically, it seems like you should be checking out their git repository rather than storing tar files and binary diffs.
[19:44] <marioxcc> Jordan_U: I want to determine the best data differencing program for my needs, which is mainly source code differencing and incremental backups (Just saving the modified files is still a big waste).
[19:45] <Jordan_U> marioxcc: For source code versioning, git hands down, for many reasons.
[19:45] <marioxcc> Jordan_U: The wesnoth file is just for a test, as I was surprised that they're using Xdelta 1 and I think that I know why. I'd like to use Xdelta 1.
[19:46] <marioxcc> Jordan_U: No, git doesn't serves for this. Wesnoth publishes new versions as stand alone and as deltas. git has nothing to do here.
[19:47] <Jordan_U> marioxcc: Can you not generate their tar balls from their git repository?
[19:47] <bekks> marioxcc: So just use xdelta from the latest v1 tarball.
[19:49] <marioxcc> Jordan_U: Yes, but the whole purpose of publishing deltas is saving download time for those who don't need the intermediate revisions. Doing a git clone would be at best equivalent to downloading the stand alone tarballl (with --depth=1), probably still worser since git uses zlib and Wesnoth tarballs are published using bzip2. But I'm just testing on these tarballs, I don't publish wesnoth.
[19:49] <bekks> marioxcc: I bet the source code is smaller than the binary tarball. :)
[19:49] <marioxcc> bekks: I think that that's what I will do, but isn't there something that compresses as well but is maintained?.
[19:50] <Jordan_U> marioxcc: I'll bet that even with information from intermediate versions you don't care about, in the long run you'll save bandwidth by keeping up to date with git.
[19:50] <MagicSpud> hello I need some help with encfs
[19:50] <bekks> marioxcc: Just use xdelta1.
[19:52] <marioxcc> Jordan_U: No really, but that's not the issue; it was about what delta programs exists which perform better than xdelta3 but are maintained.
[19:52] <marioxcc> bekks: I think that that's what I will do. Thanks.
[19:54] <code_m> I am using a VirtualBox 14.04 LTS machine. My graphical display is showing the background, but nothing else. I am able to right click, but even if I can get a program running it does not have a window-frame. Looking for a clue where to start looking for the problem.
[19:54] <LinuxGold> I'm having difficulty trying to get wireless to connect.  lspci | grep Network listed my device correctly, but iwconfig doesn't show any wireless extensions
[19:54] <LinuxGold> http://pastebin.com/fwRWRGqD
[19:55] <code_m> LinuxGold: last I knew broadcom-wl was the solution to that problem. This was several years ago though and on ArchLinux...
[19:55] <curiousx> LinuxGold: try: sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[19:57] <LinuxGold> ok. trying that package...
[19:57] <Sansay> Hey guys, i wanted to update curl on Ubuntu 10.04 (http://curl.haxx.se/download.html) says the highest version is  	7.19.7 which is the current version i have installed is it possible for me to install curl from source? I assume it should be pretty easy to do or am i missing something?
[19:58] <LinuxGold> installed that package
[19:58] <LinuxGold> still same result.
[19:58] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Why do you want a newer version of curl?
[19:58] <MagicSpud> would anybody help me with encfs?
[19:58] <code_m> LinuxGold: it's an installer. You'll need to run something to create a kernel module, then install that, then reboot.
[19:59] <Sansay> im getting this handshake issue when i try to use curl in php and when i try to use it via command line, the error is this curl: (35) error:140920E3:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_HELLO:parse tlsext
[19:59] <LinuxGold> ah
[20:01] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Why do you expect a newer version of curl to fix this?
[20:01] <Sansay> locally i have a newer version of curl installed and i dont run into issues, i also have a newer version of php, locally 5.5 server 5.4
[20:02] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: ubuntu version?
[20:02] <LinuxGold> UbuntuStudio 14.04
[20:04] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Try using backportpackage, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/utopic/en/man1/backportpackage.1.html , and grab curl from 14.04 (trusty).
[20:05] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: sudo apt-get remove --purge bcmwl-kernel-source b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree ; sleep 2 ; sudo modprobe b43
[20:05] <Sansay> im not sure what that means it allows me to install a pacakge from a different version of ubutu?
[20:06] <Jordan_U> Sansay: It allows you to build a package from a different version of Ubuntu, from the source package.
[20:07] <Badegakk> keyb
[20:07] <Badegakk> misstype
[20:07] <Sansay> so how do i test it, I do not use linux very often, is this a way to install curl then test the curl version and undo if it fails?
[20:08] <pbx> Sansay, if the build succeeds you can be pretty confident that it will function
[20:08] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: here is better: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9386731/
[20:08] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Yes, it will create a .deb file built for your version of Ubuntu, which you can then manage with the package manager.
[20:08] <Chuck_Norris> too late -.-
[20:08] <LinuxGold> lol
[20:08] <LinuxGold> it is now running...
[20:08] <Chuck_Norris> ok
[20:08] <LinuxGold> now at linux-firmware-nonfree
[20:09] <Chuck_Norris> so glad
[20:09] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Though now that I think about it, it will have a *major* downside of meaning that for as long as you have this newer self-built package installed, you will not get automatic security updates for curl.
[20:09] <Sansay> we will be updating the server eventually to a newer version of curl
[20:10] <code_m> I seem to be having this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1285444 ; don't really see a solution. Running 14.04 LTS
[20:10] <Sansay> where do i find the ppa for the newer version of ubunutu?
[20:11] <angelica_> hi
[20:11] <Jordan_U> Sansay: I don't understand your question.
[20:11] <ChogyDan> code_m: is this an upgrade, or a fresh install?
[20:12] <angelica_> hi just installed xubuntu may i ask if some one know how to check my hd free space here
[20:13] <code_m> ChogyDan: Fresh Install. I did an update hoping that would fix things, but no dice.
[20:13] <angelica_> not practice with linux in general
[20:13] <Sansay> i guess i dont understand how to use this command
[20:13] <Chuck_Norris> andrejpan: df -hT
[20:13] <Sansay> im trying to read the man page but its not making clear sense
[20:13] <code_m> ChogyDan: This happened after a my first ever reboot.
[20:14] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Indeed, it's meant more for Ubuntu developers than users. Let me try to give you an exact command to try.
[20:14] <LinuxGold> hangs at setting up linux-firmware-nonfree...
[20:14] <drk> hello people. Can someone help me please with sound on ubuntu 14.04
[20:14] <Chuck_Norris> angelica_: or if you want a graphical utility search in the main menu for something like, "disk"
[20:14] <marioxcc> bekks, Jordan_U: In case it interest you, it seems like the difference in performance is due to the fact that Xdelta always mmap's the whole source file to memory, while xdelta 3 doesn't by default, but with a big enough -B option it does (I think it has to be as big as the input file).
[20:14] <marioxcc> So I'm getting results with xdelta 3 comparable with those of xdelta 1.
[20:14] <marioxcc> (At least in compression size, I haven't measured memory usage or CPU usage).
[20:15] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: did you ran the commadn twice?
[20:15] <angelica_> thanks chuck norris
[20:15] <LinuxGold> no
[20:15] <Chuck_Norris> andrejpan: np
[20:15] <ChogyDan> code_m: do you know how to use pastebin?  Maybe you could pastebin some of the commands that are listed in the bug report, and .xsession-errors
[20:15] <drk> i don't have sound on ubuntu 14.04, i can't always replicate the problem
[20:15] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: if there is an error paste it, meanwhile wait a little bit more
[20:15] <drk> sometime waking up from suspend
[20:16] <LinuxGold> waiting for 5 more min
[20:16] <code_m> ChogyDan: my .xsession-errors looks identical to the OP I linked to.
[20:16] <drk> sometimes listening to multiple videos with firefox on different websites eg : youtube and facebook
[20:16] <code_m> ChogyDan: I'm also in a VBox VM.
[20:16] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: ok paste the outputs
[20:17] <drk> anyone please ?
[20:17] <LinuxGold> http://pastebin.com/kFiJHFj3
[20:18] <LinuxGold> ack!
[20:18] <LinuxGold> hold
[20:18] <code_m> ChogyDan: Sorry, my .xsession-errors is identical to #3: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1285444/comments/3
[20:18] <LinuxGold> http://pastebin.com/kFiJHFj3
[20:18] <LinuxGold> yeah that one.
[20:19] <Chuck_Norris> it's the same
[20:19] <Chuck_Norris> but, wait
[20:19] <LinuxGold> my mind is a bit out
[20:19] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: dont close that command
[20:19] <LinuxGold> ok
[20:19] <LinuxGold> still running tho.
[20:19] <Chuck_Norris> something bad could happend :p
[20:19] <LinuxGold> ofc :)
[20:19] <code_m> don't joke like that. Kernel modules are no joke.
[20:20] <LinuxGold> been on Windows for too long.
[20:20] <LinuxGold> :/
[20:22] <ChogyDan> code_m: yeah I dunno.  FWIW, that bug report was mishandled.  So you may want to open a new report.  When someone asks a question and sets incomplete, you are suppose to set it back to New after you answer
[20:24] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Looks like I can't quite figure it out at the moment either :)
[20:24] <Sansay> damn lol
[20:24] <Sansay> i wonder if maybe im looking at this wrong and maybe this error is fixable by changing my code
[20:25] <Jordan_U> Sansay: Another option is "checkinstall", which will create a debian package for you but the resulting package won't be of quite the same quality.
[20:25] <code_m> ChogyDan: a linked bug suggests "dpkg-reconfigure lightdm"... may that do the trick? or worth trying?
[20:25] <awkwardtechdude> What's the problem?
[20:25] <ChogyDan> code_m: it won't hurt, but it won't work either if lightdm is the problem, in my experience
[20:25] <MDTech-us_MAN> hello
[20:26] <Jordan_U> Sansay: That's definitely a good avenue to pursue. #curl might be able to help you, or possibly ##php.
[20:26] <MDTech-us_MAN> how do I disable and re-enable the internet connection through a VNC session
[20:26] <code_m> ChogyDan: thanks for trying to help.
[20:26] <ChogyDan> code_m: there is some d**n place that lighthm keeps it's configs, and I wasn't able to track it down
[20:27] <LinuxGold> still hanging...
[20:27] <LinuxGold> wish it is more verbose.
[20:27] <LinuxGold> :/
[20:28] <Lucky87> Lolz @ LinuxGold
[20:28] <code_m> ChogyDan: any idea what the file would be called? could always use a `find ~ -name "file"` to search em out.
[20:28] <ChogyDan> code_m: well, atm, I'm guessing it is the /etc/lightdm folder
[20:29] <code_m> ChogyDan: hhm, alright. I have a meeting. What time zone are you in? I won't be able to log back in for another 10 hours or so...

[20:32] <ChogyDan> momomo: maybe give one of the other desktops a try, like kde
[20:33] <momomo> bekks, nobody does. but seriously, I can't understand the logic of enforcing this to the side. I have severe RSI and this causes plenty of neck issues as well as concentration problem
[20:33] <Bashing-om> momomo: If you so not like 'unity' there are about a hundred or so alternatives out there .
[20:33] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: i don't know what's happend but the commad isn't running mmm... close it, i meant, try it again but one by one, or even better reboot
[20:33] <bekks> momomo: So dont use Unity then?
[20:33] <momomo> i like unity ... but why enforcing this one single option
[20:33] <bekks> momomo: Or submit the code to enable that...
[20:33] <LinuxGold> k
[20:33] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: something gotta be wrong -.-
[20:33] <momomo> bekks, i wish I knew how
[20:34] <LinuxGold> gotcha

[20:35] <bekks> momomo: That article describes on how to use a different launcher.
[20:36] <Bashing-om> momomo: I do not run 'unity' myself, but I do understand one can install "docky" for a task bar that can be placed at the bottom of the screen .- If that helps .

[20:50] <LinuxGold> bekks: http://pastebin.com/zvzvBWRs
[20:50] <bekks> LinuxGold: Which driver did you install?
[20:51] <LinuxGold> properitary driver provided by UbuntuStudio
[20:51] <lukasxx84> cz?
[20:51] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: sry dmesg -L -k --level=err,warn
[20:51] <LinuxGold> 3rd party
[20:51] <LinuxGold> chuck: same error
[20:51] <bekks> LinuxGold: Which driver?
[20:51] <LinuxGold> lemme go over to that laptop, bring up GUI and find it -- hold
[20:51] <Chuck_Norris> bekks: b43
[20:52] <bekks> LinuxGold: Did you install the firmware for that driver, too?
[20:52] <lukasxx84> flash player??? I have instaling adobe flash player on opera and mozilla firefox.Why not work game in facebook?thanks
[20:52] <Jordan_U> balance: Do you want to increase the resolution or decrease it?
[20:53] <trijntje_> !cz
[20:53] <balance> Jordan_U, increse, I'm running it on a vm and its like 600x800 or seomthing.
[20:53] <Jordan_U> lukasxx84: Likely the game needs a newer version of flash, which is only available for google chrome / chromium.
[20:53] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: paste dmesg -L -k --level=err,warn   if you something in red this is a problem...
[20:53] <Jordan_U> balance: What VM software?
[20:53] <Chuck_Norris> bekks: linux-firmware-nonfree install firmwares
[20:54] <balance> Jordan_U, virtual box
[20:54] <bekks> Chuck_Norris: But not all of them. :P
[20:55] <bekks> Chuck_Norris: LinuxGold: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer
[20:55] <Jordan_U> balance: Any reason not to ssh into the VM instead?
[20:55] <LinuxGold> bekks: i followed what Chuck Norris suggested so far.
[20:56] <Chuck_Norris> bekks: we did that, but as didn't work so we were doing it with linux-firmware-nonfree
[20:56] <LinuxGold> invalid option -- 'L'
[20:56] <bekks> Chuck_Norris: the latter does not provide the firmware necessary.
[20:56] <balance> Jordan_U, hmm, no, but I'm used to just use the vm directly.
[20:56] <Chuck_Norris> bekks: but, if you wanna try it, then help LinuxGold as you like, np for me
[20:57] <LinuxGold> bekks: already installed b43-fwcutter and firmware-b43-installer previously.
[20:58] <bekks> LinuxGold: can you pastebin "lsmod | grep b43"?
[20:58] <Jordan_U> balance: I don't think you're ever going to get the the nice "changes resolution as you resize the window" feature from the kernel's tty, with ssh and your terminal emulator being on the host you get that (and more) for free.
[20:58] <LinuxGold> http://pastebin.com/hQNDasxW
[20:58] <Bashing-om> Vera: Rested up ? Ready to go again ?
[20:59] <bekks> balance: The guest additions do not support TTY, so no resizing of a TTY.
[20:59] <bekks> LinuxGold: And can you pastebin "dmesg" please?
[20:59] <balance> Jordan_U, ah I just want to change the resolution fix, I doesn't need to change when I resize the window. :)
[21:00] <LinuxGold> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9387248/
[21:00] <Jordan_U> balance: To answer your question directly, you should be able to set the terminal resolution by adding GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=1024x768 (or whatever VESA mode you want) to /etc/default/grub and re-running "sudo update-grub".
[21:00] <balance> Jordan_U, but yeah ur right, I actually could try what you suggested, Just never felt like I'd need it.
[21:00] <Vera> Sorry, does anybody know if Bashing-om has been active just now?
[21:00] <balance> Jordan_U, thanks
[21:01] <bekks> LinuxGold: Read line 723 of your dmesg pastebin :)
[21:01] <Jordan_U> balance: I think you'll find it much nicer. I do most of my work with VMs without any virtual graphics card at all and it's really convenient and simple once it's setup.
[21:01] <Bashing-om> Vera: I did make a response. Rested and ready to go again ?
[21:02] <balance> Jordan_U, what are you using?
[21:02] <LinuxGold> lol
[21:02] <LinuxGold> thanks.
[21:02] <Jordan_U> balance: kvm/qemu.
[21:02] <LinuxGold> same routine
[21:03] <balance> Jordan_U, I'll check it out thanks
[21:03] <LinuxGold> rebooting
[21:04] <Jordan_U> balance: Specifically I often use "kvm -serial stdio" which will use a serial connection rather than ssh (so I can use grub and early linux boot from the host's terminal emulator too), but that's probably more complicated than you want as it requres setting up the guest OS to output via serial.
[21:05] <Jordan_U> balance: You're welcome.
[21:05] <Vera> Sorry, I didn't see you there! :) Yep, I'm ready! Fever is lower and it's actually acceptable to be up at this time in Norway, so that helps! ;)
[21:05] <Vera> Bashing-om : Sorry, I didn't see you there! :) Yep, I'm ready! Fever is lower and it's actually acceptable to be up at this time in Norway, so that helps! ;)
[21:06] <LinuxGold> got it!

[21:06] <Bashing-om> Vera: OK ! Any change made to your operating system since your Oh dark 'thirty your AM ?
[21:06] <LinuxGold> bekks and chuck_norris: thanks!
[21:06] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: np xD
[21:07] <Vera> Bashing-om : Since yesterday I've done some more thinking, and my unprofessional opinon is that there's more than just the desktop-thingy wrong.
[21:07] <Chuck_Norris> well, the first thing we did was: firmware-b43-installer but... who knows why didn't work -.-
[21:08] <Vera> Bashing-om : I wanted to watch series in my misery, so I downloaded Chrome and ran it (all by myself) from the terminal (pat on my shoulder!). And then this happened: http://imgur.com/q16lLgH
[21:08] <bekks> Chuck_Norris: Because the firmware download failed, and firmware-b43-installer told that it failed. :)
[21:10] <Chuck_Norris> bekks: i thougt that part was ok, 'cause modprobe was were the command hanged :p
[21:10] <Chuck_Norris> anyway solved
[21:11] <Bashing-om> Vera: Look'n at your http://imgur.com/q16lLgH .
[21:13] <ducch> hi everyone. i've installed ubuntu alongside windows 8.1. windows has its own partition and ubuntu has its. i'd like to enable full encryption. how do i go about doing this?
[21:14] <Bashing-om> Vera: Humm .. That makes me think this is a graphics driver issue , rather than restricted to 'unity' . What card/driver is isn use ? -> sudo lshw -C display | pastebinit . Make sure the graphics situation is acceptable.
[21:14] <blizzow> I have a couple lines of bash to check if a swapfile exists on a machine and if not, create a swapfile.  What's the best way to have this check run on boot and not impede bootup time.  I was thinking of making it a script (checkswap.sh) to run by itself and then calling it as:
[21:14] <blizzow> checkswap.sh &
[21:14] <blizzow> in my /etc/rc.local.  Anyone have suggestions or a better way to do this or know of some caveats I should watch out for?
[21:14] <Jordan_U> ducch: What do you mean by "full encryption"? What is your end goal?
[21:14] <Vera> Bashing-om : Since then also the log-on screen have started to act weird, with the same diagonal cut.
[21:14] <ducch> Jordan_U:  to have ubuntu's partition encrypted head to toe.
[21:14] <ducch> windows is being taken care of by bitlocker, so i just need ubuntu to take care of its own partition.
[21:14] <Jordan_U> ducch: Why do you want that? What does it gain you over having /home/ encrypted?
[21:15] <ducch> i like my privacy.
[21:15] <ducch> fwiw, im currently dual booting using grub (or whatever ubuntu installs).
[21:15] <Vera> Bashing-om : http://paste.ubuntu.com/9387410/
[21:15] <Bashing-om> vera looki'n at your http://paste.ubuntu.com/9387410/ .
[21:16] <Jordan_U> ducch: Almost everything outside of /home/ is known to the world, anyone can download Ubuntu and see the files packages provide.
[21:17] <ducch> Jordan_U:  i'd still like to have it all encrypted.
[21:17] <Jordan_U> ducch: You can easily install Ubuntu with everything with /boot/ encrypted, and much less easily (and practically) can install Ubuntu with even /boot/ encrypted. But that rarely makes sense.
[21:17] <ducch> or at least anything that i could possibly have encrypted.
[21:17] <Reshesnik> ducch, i had a dual boot system full disk encrypted with truecrypt.  was quite easy.  of course, that information is useless to you now that truecrypt is dead
[21:17] <ducch> i don't care about /boot.
[21:17] <Jordan_U> ducch: Re-install Ubuntu and select the option for "full disk encryption" or similar.
[21:17] <ducch> Reshesnik: :)
[21:18] <ducch> Jordan_U:  i couldn't select that option because it's set alongside windows. i had to manually tell it where to install. that said, someone here said earlier it's possible to set up encryption after installation as well.
[21:19] <ducch> brb in a moment
[21:19] <Vera> Bashing-om : The machine only had an intergrated video card, so I tried to put in a designated one. But I don't think that one's compatible with ubuntu (at least I didn't find it on this list : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsAti )
[21:19] <Chuck_Norris> ducch: tell the install that encrypt your home
[21:19] <Jordan_U> ducch: You can't practically encrypt your root partition post-install. You can setup encryption of your user's home directory post install.
[21:20] <EriC^> ducch: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FullDiskEncryptionHowto
[21:20] <Bashing-om> Vera: Ummphh.. does not compute, seeing two different cards ? Show us -> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga | pastebinit . We may be onto something here !
[21:20] <ses1984> hi--i'm trying to use the remote desktop viewer with rds protocol to view two windows machines. one windows 7, the other windows server 2008 r2. they're both clean installs done today. i can use RDS to get into the windows 7 machine, but not the server 2008 r2 machine...any ideas?
[21:20] <Reshesnik> does server have higher default security settings?
[21:20] <Vera> Bashing-om : Is that two or one command?
[21:21] <Bashing-om> Vera: That is one command .
[21:21] <ses1984> i know the windows server machine is listening for connections because i can use the windows 7 machine to rd into the server. i did have higher security settings but then i lowered them to see if that was causing the issue
[21:21] <rustyraptor> I am trying to compile a program but it needs qlistview.h. It is supposed to be from qt5. Do you know which package I can find this in?

[21:21] <EriC^> !find qlistview.h
[21:21] <rustyraptor> oh cool
[21:22] <Reshesnik> Jordan_U, was in response to the win server 2008 rdp question
[21:22] <LinuxGold> I got it figured out

[21:22] <Jordan_U> Reshesnik: Ahh, that makes more sense :)
[21:22] <LinuxGold> that is probably why it failed in the first place.

[21:23] <Chuck_Norris> lo) that's what i told you reboot -.-
[21:23] <ses1984> i found this askubuntu question that is the same as my question,but the accepted answer didn't work for me http://askubuntu.com/questions/86148/how-to-connect-to-windows-server-2008-remote-desktop-with-network-level-authenti
[21:23] <Reshesnik> yeah, my bad, Jordan_U .  bad habit.
[21:23] <LinuxGold> yeah, at least it was resolved.
[21:23] <LinuxGold> a lesson learned.
[21:23] <Reshesnik> ses1984, just googling, it looks like others have had the same problem with RDV
[21:23] <Reshesnik> might try a different rdp application?
[21:24] <Happzz> im sorry, im back. i'm ducch.
[21:24] <ses1984> can you recommend one?
[21:24] <guntbert> !tab | Reshesnik
[21:24] <Reshesnik> guntbert, yeah, i'm aware.  i actually moderate another channel.  just being lazy.
[21:25] <Reshesnik> guntbert, also, not used to MASSIVE rooms
[21:25] <Happzz> so, what can i do about this
[21:25] <Reshesnik> ses1984, I'm usually going the other way.  I've honestly got no idea, but I know there are options ;)
[21:26] <ses1984> well i could always install vnc on the server but i really dont want to do that. ok...to google
[21:26] <Lucky87> what would ubuntobot do?
[21:26] <ubuntu35w> out of curiosity, does anyone know if there is a theme for ubuntu that is similar to the Xbox  360 "Blades" dashboard?
[21:26] <Reshesnik> yeah, ses1984, i feel you.  good luck.
[21:27] <Bashing-om> Vera: bubbasaures // That last shows 3 controllers ! I have no idea what is going on here . bubbasaures any thoughts ?
[21:27] <guntbert> Happzz: about what? you haven't asked anything in the last hours.
[21:27] <Reshesnik> ses1984, remmina maybe?
[21:27] <Happzz> guntbert:  i just said i'm ducch. i asked about disk encryption a few minutes ago.
[21:27] <ses1984> Reshesnik: that's what i'm using
[21:27] <Vera> Bashing-om: I think it's scary how many times you say that you've no idea what's going on...
[21:27] <BinaryMaster> QUESTION:  I have a unmet dependencies libmysqlclient16:i386 : Depends: mysql-common:i386 (>= 5.1.58-1ubuntu5) and mariadb-common : Depends: mysql-common. When I run apt-get -f install I get an error trying to overwrite '/usr/share/mysql/romanian/errmsg.sys', which is also in package mariadb-server-core-10.1 10.1.1+maria-1~trusty I have tried finding the error on google but I don't get any hits back. Can anyone help out?
[21:28] <Reshesnik> oh, ses1984, i must have misread.
[21:28] <Vera> Bashing-om: Should I take out the video card I put in? The problem ocurred before I put that in, though.
[21:28] <Bashing-om> Vera: Hey, at least I am up front, and we have not broke the machine yet . And I do believe we are on the right track here with it being a graphics situation.
[21:29] <ses1984> well using rdesktop works perfectly fine
[21:29] <MrSavage> I tried to make nemo the main file manager for unity and now when I click the recycle bin I get: Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/applications/nemo.desktop" (Permission denied).
[21:29] <MrSavage> How can I get it to work?
[21:29] <Vera> Bashing-om: Thanks, I'm really just teasing. ;) But do you want me to take the designated card out? The problem ocurred before I put it in, though.
[21:30] <bubbasaures> Bashing-om, I'm not really up on graphics, all my computers have been intel.
[21:30] <Bashing-om> Vera: I would suggest that you look in bios, and see if you can disable the onboard graphics chip set . ( all 3 are ATI based, all running 'redeon - open source - drivers) .
[21:31] <Vera> Bashing-om: How do I know which chip set is the onboard one? (I asshume onboard means the one on the motherboard?)
[21:31] <Bashing-om> bubbasaures: Thanks anywho .. This is strange to me as to how the system sees and uses ( drivers are loaded) 3 graphics drivers .. Bet it drives the system nuts too .
[21:33] <bubbasaures> Bashing-om, I could help in this area pretty much all you need to know in general is on the web, but there are many here whom are really good at it so I stay out of their way.
[21:35] <Bashing-om> bubbasaures: Understood, and agreed, maybe some day I may have acquired that kind of knowledge. Meanwhile, I am now in my learning mode.
[21:37] <Vera> Bashing-om: How do I know which chip set is the onboard one? (I asshume onboard means the one on the motherboard?)
[21:37] <Bashing-om> Vera: What we have here is 3 PCI addresses active 01:05.0 , 02:00.0 , 02:00.1 . I would think the 1st is the onboard graphics set, maybe the other 2 are dual outputs on the add-on card ??
[21:37] <Happzz> im shocked. ubuntu is incapable of encrypting its files. lame windows supports that, but ubuntu doesn't.
[21:38] <joshh20> Is ext3 still recommend for new paritions?
[21:38] <Happzz> how come an OS like ubuntu can't handle encryption if it's not given the whole disk
[21:39] <koziskey> been trying to  get nvidia 7300le driver to work, i have tried many guides from google but no luck. Can anyone help?
[21:40] <Vera> Bashing-om : Presuming that onboard means "on the motherboard" and the "add-on" means "the one I put in myself", that is correct; the add-on have two she-outputs.
[21:40] <BinaryMaster> QUESTION:  I have a unmet dependencies libmysqlclient16:i386 : Depends: mysql-common:i386 (>= 5.1.58-1ubuntu5) and mariadb-common : Depends: mysql-common. When I run apt-get -f install I get an error trying to overwrite '/usr/share/mysql/romanian/errmsg.sys', which is also in package mariadb-server-core-10.1 10.1.1+maria-1~trusty I have tried finding the error on google but I don't get any hits back. Can anyone help out?
[21:40] <MrSavage> I tried to make nemo the main file manager for unity and now when I click the recycle bin I get: Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/applications/nemo.desktop" (Permission denied).
[21:40] <MrSavage> How can I get it to work?
[21:41] <Jordan_U> MrSavage: How did you try to make nemo the default file manager?
[21:42] <Bashing-om> Vera: I still think we need to look into bios, and see what there is for options to disable the VGA output from the onboard (motherboard) graphics set .
[21:42] <techsuperfreak> MrSavage, have you tried marking the recycle bin link executable?
[21:42] <MrSavage> techsuperfreak: NOt sure what you mean
[21:42] <MrSavage> Bashing-om: I was editing mimetypes somewhere near root and in my home?
[21:42] <MrSavage> I don't remember what I did
[21:43] <MrSavage> I was editing some files
[21:43] <Vera> OK, I'll log on IRC on my anciant laptop again, so I can hold your hand underway. :)
[21:43] <Vera> Bashing-om: OK, I'll log on IRC on my anciant laptop again, so I can hold your hand underway. :)
[21:44] <Jordan_U> MrSavage: Whatever file you edited was probably expecting a path to an executable, not a path to a .desktop file. Try changing that same file and replacing /usr/share/applications/nemo.desktop with the output of "which nemo".
[21:44] <MrSavage> Jordan_U: I believe it was nautilus.desktop before
[21:45] <simme> hey everyone, what are the login credentials for the liveCD? I just downloaded it (14.10) and it asks for credentials...
[21:47] <Bashing-om> MrSavage: I have not messed about with an alternative file manager, have you investigated " man update-alternatives " to reset the default ?
[21:47] <MrSavage> no
[21:47] <Jordan_U> simme: username "ubuntu" password "". But your actual problem is most likely that Unity is crashing when it tries to automatically log in, and will likely do so again if you log in manually.
[21:47] <MrSavage> as soon as I'm done eating i'll check out what i did
[21:48] <Vera_> Bashing-om: This is ancient-laptop-Vera. Desktop-Vera should now restart her computer and enter the BIOS-setup, correct? Y/n ;)
[21:48] <simme> Jordan_U: yeah tried that. doesn’t work either. my console is spammed with authentication failures. so best fix is just stick with 14.04?
[21:48] <Bashing-om> Vera_: That be a yes .
[21:49] <Jordan_U> simme: Are you logging in via lightdm or at a console tty?
[21:49] <simme> i just booted from an usb-stick and clicked „try ubuntu"
[21:51] <Jordan_U> simme: Is there any "failsafe" or similarly named option for a "session" at the login screen?
[21:51] <simme> Jordan_U: i don’t think so
[21:52] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Now in BIOS-setup. What next?
[21:52] <Chuck_Norris> simme: try: username: ubuntu  paswd: ubuntu
[21:53] <simme> Chuck_Norris: won’t work either, already tried that too
[21:53] <simme> and ubuntu-desktop-next as well
[21:53] <Chuck_Norris> and root : root ?
[21:53] <simme> http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/ubuntu-releases/14.10/ubuntu-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso this is the image that failed so hard for me, in case anyone is interested
[21:54] <simme> Chuck_Norris: I think I tried all the „obvious“ combinations
[21:54] <Vera_> Bashing-om: I've found what says it is internal graphics options of some sort, but I don't can't get further.
[21:55] <Sansay> When i ran this command i get this output im not sure what to do, should i force the upgrade ?
[21:55] <Sansay>  apt-get upgrade openssl Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[21:55] <Bashing-om> Vera_: You are looking for any settings that are "vga" related .. page through and see what you can find. IF you are running Phoenix award for your bios, I might be able to help .
[21:55] <momomo> How can I create a launcher that opens a certain directory?
[21:55] <momomo> Files always opens the home directory
[21:55] <Vera_> Bashing-om: How do I know If I'm running phonix award?
[21:55] <Chuck_Norris> well idk if that mirror is oficial but it is weird that is asking you for credential, but... i would try a mirror from http://ubuntu.com
[21:56] <Chuck_Norris> simme: ----`
[21:56] <Bashing-om> Vera_: When you boot up there is an advisory at the top of the screen what bios you are running and the version number.
[21:56] <simme> Chuck_Norris: doing that right now, thanks anyway
[21:57] <Chuck_Norris> np, cya
[21:57] <Jordan_U> Chuck_Norris: It's only bringing simme to a login screen because automatic login failed (presumably unity crashed).
[21:58] <Vera_> Bashing-om: I didn't notice what that was at the time. Should I reboot and check? The BIOS-setup is blue and grey and copyrighted from American Megatrends, I think.
[21:58] <Jordan_U> simme: You should be able to log in at a text only console by pressing ctrl+alt+F1 (ctrl+alt+F7 to return).
[21:59] <Chuck_Norris> Jordan_U: simme oh! didn't read that part, sry
[22:00] <EriC^> momomo: copy the nautilus .desktop file in /usr/share/applications and change the Exec part to nautilus /path/to/open
[22:01] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Looking to find us a manual for your bios. - American Megatrends - .
[22:01] <Chuck_Norris> Jordan_U: simme in that case, i would try some of the options like "noacpi" (if it's a notebook) or some other that you can select at the very beginig presing a F#  (F6 i think it is)
[22:01] <Vera_> Bashing-om: I've found some both screen hardware and Internal Graphics-related things, but nothing with the letters VGA, thoug.
[22:02] <Sansay> could someone help me update openssl or check if i can update it on my linux machine? when i try to upgrade i get The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[22:03] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: sudo apt-get install -f
[22:04] <Sansay> what will that command do?
[22:04] <Chuck_Norris> try to fix dependences issues
[22:04] <bassitone> having trouble getting a wireless adapter driver to compile & install

[22:10] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Disregard my last, I find nothing usefull in that link .
[22:11] <Vera_> Bashing-om: I detected where the version of mye BIOS-setup was printed. It's close, version 02.58.
[22:12] <cloneG> hello I wanted to encrypt a folder and I was about to use Truecrypt but as I found it was dropped I tried to use encfs. then I came to this thread: http://blog.sambull.org/easily-encrypt-folders-2#comment-11424  and I found it could be cool to have the chance to encrypt whichever system folder just by right clicking...but now I am in trouble
[22:13] <squinty> Sansay:  might want to try running a md5sum on that package.  see http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/amd64/libc6/download for details
[22:14] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: i really don't it is kind of scary to me but... paste: locate libc6
[22:14] <cloneG> the point is I only have the .myfolder-enc file left and the original folder vanished...and being the sam bull blog a bit rancid...las post is from may 2013...I came here for a bit of help
[22:14] <Chuck_Norris> i meant, i will try to fool preinst script but...
[22:16] <Sansay> http://pastebin.com/XunE8XEs
[22:16] <KEEm> do anyone know how to exit and save file from "vi add-apt-repository" ?
[22:17] <KEEm> EriC^?
[22:17] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.preinst
[22:18] <Chuck_Norris> KEEm: save a file in edito vim?
[22:18] <Sansay> what will that do Chuck_Norris ?
[22:19] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: that wil open an text editor so you can edit the preinst script in order to fool it :p
[22:19] <azizLIGHT> why would copying a file from secondary hdd to a usb flash drive cause firefox to jam and cause lag in the system
[22:19] <Chuck_Norris> will* open a* text...
[22:19] <Sansay> lol why do we want to fool it?
[22:20] <Chuck_Norris> 'cause it is hanging dpkg
[22:20] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Are you still on the case?
[22:20] <azizLIGHT> Chuck_Norris: are you talking to me
[22:21] <Chuck_Norris> azizLIGHT: nop
[22:21] <Chuck_Norris> azizLIGHT: becouse the disk is busy
[22:21] <azizLIGHT> yeah but i am on a ssd, and im copying files from a hdd to a flash drive
[22:21] <azizLIGHT> aint nothing going on on the ssd
[22:22] <azizLIGHT> so why am i all laggy
[22:22] <Chuck_Norris> then idk, trim that ssd -.-
[22:22] <wiltors42> how do i test alsa sound through terminal
[22:22] <OerHeks> azizLIGHT, so your hdd is busy, takes too much resources from your cpu/chipset
[22:22] <azizLIGHT> Chuck_Norris: its happening only when i did the file transfer. its A OK otherwise
[22:22] <azizLIGHT> man are you serious
[22:22] <OerHeks> depends what you do in firefox, watch a movie?
[22:23] <azizLIGHT> i paid all this money so i cag get defeated by a fil/
[22:23] <azizLIGHT> it lagged
[22:23] <azizLIGHT> defeated by a file transfer
[22:23] <daftykins> azizLIGHT: anything in "dmesg | tail" ?
[22:23] <daftykins> (don't paste here)
[22:23] <Chuck_Norris> azizLIGHT: yeah ssd gotta be trim from time to time, so they keep performing good
[22:23] <azizLIGHT> yeah but i only been using this ssd for about 2 months maybe
[22:24] <Mega1> ubuntu server 14.04 how do you ssh as root
[22:24] <EriC^> KEEm: what do you mean by vi apt-add-repository ?
[22:24] <azizLIGHT> what does this mean in dmesg | tail:  [190948.378779] sd 23:0:0:0: [sdd] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
[22:24] <EriC^> KEEm: if you're using vi as an editor and want to save and exit, press esc then type :wq
[22:24] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: are you there¿
[22:25] <azizLIGHT> it says mounted fileststem with ordered data mode
[22:26] <azizLIGHT> ok is it because i inserted the drive as ext4, then gparted changed the partition to msdos and formatted to ntfs, and then didnt remove the drive and just started pasting stuff in
[22:26] <bassitone> Anyone know how to get the rtl8192C wireless driver working on 14.04?
[22:26] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Do you want me to post pictures of the BIOS-setup? I can take some with my phone and upload.
[22:27] <Sansay> Chuck_Norris: yes i am
[22:27] <azizLIGHT> how do i stop this nonsense lag
[22:27] <azizLIGHT> god damn
[22:27] <mikael> Anyone have experience with pixel shader 3.0 and virtualbox?
[22:28] <bekks> mikael: You'll have no luck.
[22:28] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: so you got the text editor opened?
[22:28] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I am still on the case, to this time I have found nothing that addresses my thought process to find a means of disableing the onboard graphics. I keep looking .
[22:28] <Chuck_Norris> bassitone: i found this:  http://askubuntu.com/questions/471208/realtek-wireless-adapter-issues-rtl8192ce-and-rtl8192cu
[22:28] <Chuck_Norris> bassitone: ask for help if you need it
[22:28] <mikael> bekks: No support? Any idea how I can go around the pixel shader?
[22:29] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Thank you so much! I'll be here!
[22:29] <bekks> mikael: Just use real hardware.
[22:29] <Sansay> Chuck_Norris: i dont want to do that, i think I am going to leave this with the server admin and hopefully he can solve it
[22:29] <Sansay> Chuck_Norris: thank you so much for your help though
[22:30] <mikael> bekks: I'm running windows in virtualbox, how can I run real hardware ?
[22:30] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: lo/ Sansay don't trust Chuck_Norris xD np brotha
[22:30] <mikael> bekks: I'm not going to run dual OS
[22:30] <Sansay> no its a company server, i dont want to do something that might cause a chain of broken shit lol
[22:31] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: it's ok, smart desition, i was sacar 'cause it is related to libc wich is a very important library :P
[22:31] <bekks> mikael: Then you'll have no luck with your pixel shader.
[22:31] <Bashing-om> While I am loomking, go ahead and boot to the operating system and take a look in the log file "Xorg.0.log" see if you see anything of interest -> less /var/log/Xorg.0.log <-. It may prove enlightening.
[22:31] <Chuck_Norris> scared
[22:32] <Bashing-om> looking*
[22:32] <mikael> bekks: Ok... that's shitty. Thanks anyway
[22:32] <Sansay> haha ya i have no idea what that lib is, is that something to do with compression?
[22:33] <Chuck_Norris> no, it somethin related: Contains the standard libraries that are used by nearly all programs on the system. This package includes shared versions of the standard C library and the standard math library, as well as many others.
[22:33] <Chuck_Norris> Sansay: source: aptitude show libc6

[22:53] <exitcode1> hello.
[22:53] <whoppaz13> I'm having VPN issues with the Cisco VPN client.  Can anybody here help?
[22:54] <whoppaz13> It connects but it doesn't want to ping any of the networks its suppose to use
[22:54] <whoppaz13> or talk to rather...
[22:55] <bubbasaures> micom, You can move home to a partition so in the future and now reinstalls has your home. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving
[22:55] <exitcode1> whoppaz13 might get help in #cisco if you don't find it here. that sounds a bit more like a problem on the vpn host device, not your end.
[22:56] <whoppaz13> no its my end..  I setup the account with the same information on another machine and it works fine.
[22:57] <dariuss> whoppaz13: does a traceroute show that you're using the VPN as your default gateway?
[22:57] <Chuck_Norris> bassitone: is it ok you wifi ?
[22:57] <whoppaz13> let me check one moment...
[22:59] <Pelo> anyone else having flash issues ? ie no youtube or anyting else playing flash videos ?
[22:59] <parmiggiano> Pelo: which browser are you using?
[23:00] <dariuss> Pelo: Google Chrome has built-in flash support (not Chromium, but Chrome)
[23:00] <Pelo> parmiggiano, firefox, it worked well last week , I haven't been on in a few days,  just tried to view something and all the usual site just won't play the vids

[23:01] <bassitone> Chuck_Norris: nope :(
[23:01] <Pelo> dariuss, , where do I get chrome for ubuntu ?
[23:02] <dariuss> Google

[23:03] <bubbasaures> Mendax, chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:03] <bazhang> then ask Mendax
[23:03] <Mendax> i will, but dont you appreciate the courtesy?
[23:04] <bubbasaures> ;)
[23:04] <whoppaz13> I do a traceroute for the network and it goes nowhere...
[23:04] <bazhang> do you have an actual support question Mendax
[23:04] <whoppaz13> just times out
[23:04] <Chuck_Norris> bassitone: but you did it all the guide without errors?
[23:04] <dariuss> whoppaz13: ip route get <ip>
[23:04] <parmiggiano> Pelo: good question... perhaps an update caused an issue... you could also try to reinstall adobe flash
[23:04] <bassitone> yes, ran through the guide seemingly successfully
[23:04] <dariuss> whoppaz13: should confirm the interface selection
[23:05] <Mendax> i need to know if ubuntu is the safest operating system to use, in the context of external malicious intrusions? What would you say?
[23:05] <whoppaz13> 192.168.107.1 dev tun0  src 172.16.107.3  cache
[23:05] <birdman007> im having trouble looking inside of an iso image, the only thing it sees is a txt file that says its a udf filesystem
[23:05] <whoppaz13> looks like its going out the right interface...
[23:05] <bekks> Mendax: Every system is just as secure as the administrator configures it.
[23:05] <Pelo> parmiggiano, I assumed it was update related which is why I asked here . I'be been outof the loop for a while this is theonly place I though to ask
[23:05] <dariuss> whoppaz13: yep
[23:05] <Mendax> Thats a partial view
[23:06] <Mendax> be impartial and pragmatic
[23:06] <whoppaz13> I got a feeling its something with Ubuntu itself.  It was working for a while.  The only change I remember doing before it broke was making some changes with Virtualbox
[23:06] <whoppaz13> but I don't think hte 2 are related.
[23:06] <IdleOne> Mendax: The answer to your question is, no.
[23:06] <dariuss> Mendax: I used to reinstall my parents' computers all the time.  I moved them to Ubuntu - haven't had an incident, haven't had a reinstall for 10 years, just upgrades
[23:06] <Mendax> im  am really curious because at the behest of some users, i was told to install in on the mac, so i obliged.
[23:07] <dariuss> Windows is a huge target, Mac not so much
[23:07] <parmiggiano> Pelo: If you want to try to reinstall flash... mark the package 'flashplugin-installer' for complete removal... there might still be surviving files. in a terminal, 'locate libflashplayer.so' in a terminal will show them; you would need to delete them manually. then install the flash package again.
[23:07] <dariuss> just being practical, it's probably not a major difference between Mac and Linux for exposure to security incident
[23:07] <parmiggiano> Pelo: at least, this once worked for me.
[23:07] <Pelo> parmiggiano, doing that right now
[23:08] <Vera_> Bashing-om:  Not quite sure what you mean, but yes, under Chipset / Internal graphics there is an options-thingy for Primary Video controller
[23:08] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Du you want me to take a pic of the screen with my phone and upload it to Imgur?
[23:08] <dariuss> whoppaz13: really hard to know.  VPNs are by design difficult to inspect
[23:09] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Yes, a picture here may well be worth the trouble.
[23:09] <whoppaz13> dariuss: is there a log file or something I can look at?
[23:10] <dariuss> whoppaz13: usually there is - I'm not familiar with your vpn client though.  Of course scout out /var/log/syslog and /var/log/ in general
[23:10] <whoppaz13> I'm using vpnc
[23:11] <dariuss> whoppaz13: if you can start it from the command line, you might be able to increase debug/log level
[23:12] <dariuss> whoppaz13: if you're not already doing so, learn to launch from the command line.  Often it will spit out debug info to the terminal
[23:12] <kruxG3> got a clients computer that wont let him log out or shutdown also if you hit to go to your applications he cant see them and the icons are acting up weird some wont even show on the unity bar thingy ubuntu 14.04
[23:12] <whoppaz13> dariuss: the vpn you mean?  Yeah I did.  The GUI was acting buggy so I did it through the CLI just to see...  It shows it connects fine.
[23:13] <kruxG3> any bugs or solutions regarding this ? anybody knows ?
[23:13] <Pelo> parmiggiano, didn't do sqwat, I'll wait for more updates, I'll give chrome a try in the meantime
[23:13] <Pelo> thanks guys
[23:13] <parmiggiano> kruxG3: have you tried to log into unity-2d? at first sight, it sounds like a graphics issue.
[23:13] <dariuss> whoppaz13: NAT sometimes gets in the way of VPNs
[23:14] <dariuss> whoppaz13: I always try a packet trace when I don't have better options
[23:14] <kruxG3> how will i go about doing that ?...
[23:14] <dariuss> whoppaz13: you can confirm that ICMPs are being sent into tun0 - you can confirm that (encrypted) packets are being sent to the VPN server
[23:14] <jcrubino> I just compiled postgres from source, what (how do I know) service for systemd to start?
[23:15] <whoppaz13> dariuss: can you tell me how I can do that?
[23:15] <dariuss> whoppaz13: tcpdump -i tun0 -n icmp will show you ICMP packets going into the tunnel interface
[23:16] <parmiggiano> kruxG3: at the login screen, you can choose a session type (small symbol at the right of the user name); there should be 'Ubuntu' and 'Ubuntu 2D' among others. if it's a problem with the graphics driver, 'Ubuntu 2D' should still work.
[23:16] <whoppaz13> when I connect and check the syslog I get this message "Dec  5 18:14:37 930-eLWhoppers NetworkManager[892]: <warn> /sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0: couldn't determine device driver; ignoring...
[23:16] <whoppaz13> oops I should've used pastebin sorry
[23:16] <kruxG3> parmiggiano, he does not have the lil icon to choose from different desktops
[23:17] <Vera_> Bashing-om:  http://imgur.com/xewQto1
[23:17] <dariuss> whoppaz13: tcpdump -i <interface> -n host <vpn server> will show you traffic going to the vpn server (most/all encrypted so it can only be used to confirm some transmission, but not what exactly)
[23:18] <dariuss> whoppaz13: I don't remember if vpnc / cisco vpn has a separate signaling channel from the transmission channel -- but NAT is often a culprit when one channel works fine and the other doesn't
[23:18] <parmiggiano> kruxG3: is that because he logs in automatically? (without a login screen asking for the password)
[23:18] <dariuss> whoppaz13: sometimes when you have more than one VPN session up
[23:18] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Look'n at http://imgur.com/xewQto1 .
[23:19] <kruxG3> parmiggiano, i am on ligthdm right now.. to log in he has no option for 2d.. if i recall i remember reading some where where they said they were taking that off 14.04
[23:19] <kruxG3> i can easily log out of mine and select openbox fluxbox or others
[23:19] <whoppaz13> dariuss: i have more than one VPN setup, but not connected.  Should I just wipe them all out and just setup one and see what happens??
[23:19] <parmiggiano> kruxG3: oh, and Gnome Classic?
[23:20] <MrSavage> I tried to make nemo my main file manager and now when I click the recycle bin I get this: Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/applications/nemo.desktop" (Permission denied). Any help?
[23:20] <dariuss> whoppaz13: don't think so.  If you're getting connected but can't get bidirectional encapsulation - try getting your computer out from behind NAT
[23:20] <dariuss> whoppaz13: onto a public IP
[23:21] <dariuss> whoppaz13: it's just one possibility
[23:21] <kruxG3> parmiggiano, all he got is unity
[23:21] <Bashing-om> Vera_: That setting "looks" to be correct, however, what are the alternates ?
[23:21] <kruxG3> if i turn his computer on when i go the dash to look for apps they wont even show
[23:22] <kruxG3> now i created a new user and was able to log in to that one and see the applications.. but still wont let me shutdown and acts funny it's using a different icon set also
[23:22] <dariuss> whoppaz13: sometimes there are settings in your client to be NAT friendly
[23:23] <Bashing-om> Vera_: ^^ there maybe this: " Options: GFX0-GPP-IGFX-PCI (Default) " .
[23:23] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Pimary video controller options: PCIE/IGFX/PCI (new line) PCI/PCIE/IGFX (new line) IGFX/PCIE/PCI
[23:23] <parmiggiano> kruxG3: hm... I don't know if I would install another desktop environment just to check whether its the 3D graphics... :(
[23:23] <dariuss> whoppaz13: sometimes your router providing NAT can only manage one VPN session at a time (and sometimes a stale session will block any new sessions)
[23:23] <kruxG3> parmiggiano, yeah i am not going to.. it will break unity some how
[23:23] <dariuss> whoppaz13: I know it sounds wierd - but you can try rebooting your router if it's providing NAT
[23:23] <kruxG3> i was just saying that in my desktop i have the option to change to unity or gnome etc.. but i see no unity 2d..
[23:24] <kruxG3> his only got unity install by default so when i go to lightdm to log in i have no option to change just log in
[23:25] <kruxG3> i think i found a solution
[23:25] <parmiggiano> (you were right... unity 2D no longer exists in 14.04)
[23:26] <Vera_> Bashing-om: There's no primary controller options that look like the one you described, unfortunately
[23:26] <kruxG3> yeah :)..
[23:26] <parmiggiano> what have you done, kruxG3 ?
[23:26] <kruxG3> parmiggiano, i don't know is not my box.. some one else
[23:27] <kruxG3> i am trying to fix it for them :)
[23:27] <kruxG3> mine works like a charm always..
[23:27] <justin__> y
[23:27] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I "think" chang3 that option to " PCIE/IGFX/PCI " - make a written note of the change, if we wqnt to revert back - and in bios settings "save" and exit. let's see what the effect is. As I think we want the PCI(E) to have precidence .
[23:28] <Bashing-om> want*
[23:28] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Didn't understand your last sentence - to let the PCI(E) have precedence?
[23:29] <exitcode1> hmmm. Is there an easy way to remove the Execute permission from a big hierarchy of files without making the directories un-openable?
[23:29] <UTL> Is anybody available under #ubuntu-touch? I'm not getting a response, so I assumed everybody was "out to lunch".
[23:29] <daftykins> UTL: it's probably a lot less active, yeah
[23:29] <mozzarella> guys help
[23:29] <daftykins> mozzarella: start with a question
[23:29] <OerHeks> "untouchable"
[23:29] <UTL> OK. I'll check back later
[23:30] <xmetal> a question tends to help
[23:30] <mozzarella> I want to remap some keys using xmodmap
[23:30] <kruxG3> welp that didnt work
[23:31] <daftykins> mozzarella: a full question is eeeeeeven better
[23:31] <daftykins> :)
[23:31] <parmiggiano> anyone else an idea what could cause Unity to mess up in 14.04?
[23:31] <mozzarella> this is what I have so far: http://paste.debian.net/135135/
[23:31] <daftykins> define "unity mess up" ?
[23:32] <mozzarella> basically, I want to map everything that's on line 3 to 6
[23:32] <Bashing-om> Vera_: If you set "  PCIE/IGFX/PCI " it changes the priority of what bios passes to the operating system. Not to cloud the issue further "  Igfx refers to the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator," what has Intel got to do with this is a puzzle to me .
[23:32] <mozzarella> except it doesn't work
[23:33] <Vera_> Bashing-om: Haha, _everything_ is a puzzle to me! :) Ok, then I save, exit and reboot. *crossing fingers*
[23:35] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Also what I do not know, nor know how to direct you to tell me is the type of card that you added. could be PCI or PCIE .
[23:35] <Bashing-om> Vera_: fingers crossed.
[23:43] <user1_> on the network connections im showing no driver
[23:44] <MrSavage> How can I make firefox's file browser show thumbnails?
[23:44] <daftykins> !details | user1_
[23:45] <user1_> on the wireless icon in the panel bar if i left click on it and left click information im showing no driver
[23:45] <daftykins> user1_: if it works, it doesn't matter
[23:46] <Vera_> Bashing-om: http://imgur.com/7Ixh03a !
[23:46] <user1_> yeah its online but wondered why was blank space
[23:47] <daftykins> don't know, not a concern :)
[23:48] <antonio_> how do I skip the password requirement when turn on my lubuntu?
[23:49] <antonio_> ?
[23:51] <daftykins> antonio_: http://www.itworld.com/article/2725495/it-management/how-to-put-lubuntu-into-automatic-login-mode.html
[23:53] <antonio_> thank you so much
[23:53] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Look'n http://imgur.com/7Ixh03a .
[23:56] <Mega1> ubuntu server 14.04 how do you ssh as root
[23:56] <Bashing-om> Vera_: Have you rebooted once more and the "internal error" persist ? If so, change the card priority to the leading PCI option - and try again .
[23:57] <Vera_> Bashing-om:  Ok!
[23:57] <Ben64> Mega1: root ssh is disabled by default and for good reason
[23:58] <Bashing-om> Vera_: I note that the diagonal split is no longer there when we changed the card priority !
[23:58] <UTL> Could anybody come to the #ubuntu-touch channel? I just got an idea for my tablet...
[23:58] <Vera_> Bashing-om: No diagonals, kexagons or any other weird geometry! Hurrah!
