HerrBananoanyway, squinty bubbasaures thanks for your input. i'll look into it :)00:00
squintyHerrBanano:  yw   good luck :)00:01
bigbluebutterfliany one here00:02
wafflej0ckHerrBanano: consider Xubuntu if you want to salvage it in terms of performance, also I'm running Gnome, it's not super light weight but I think slightly lighter than Unity00:02
bigbluebutterfliwhats this about00:03
bubbasauresbigbluebutterfli, Ubuntu support.00:03
bigbluebutterflior ok00:03

ubottubigbluebutterfli: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!00:03

diphtherialhey, so i've just installed ubuntu 14.10 on an asus zenbook ux303ln. the touchpad's really weird, e.g. the cursor slides around while you're trying to click, making it nearly unusable00:03
wafflej0ckbigbluebutterfli: if you don't have a support topic join the offtopic channel to just chat00:03
diphtherialare there better drivers than what come with the OS for asus laptops?00:03
john_doe_jrI need to generate a UUID that is only 23 characters long…how would  I do that?00:04
wafflej0ckbigbluebutterfli: you mean 14.10 I imagine?00:04
bubbasauresbigbluebutterfli, Is that 14.10, try to lay off the enter and state your support issue.00:04
bigbluebutterflihow can i i get to use nautlus perminently00:04
Ben64bigbluebutterfli: explain00:05
HerrBananowafflej0ck: my main issue is that since i upgraded to 14.04 my fan is running 24/7 with only one app open, which happens only on unity.00:05
Shogoot_MMM_00:06
HerrBananomain advice should probably be upgrade your damn hardware but i don't have the money to do that right now :)00:06
bubbasauresHerrBanano, What is the computer and model.00:06
wafflej0ckHerrBanano: there are some packages out there for power management for intel that may help... can't recall the name off hand00:06
HerrBananoCPU T2250 @ 1.73GHz × 200:07
wafflej0ckHerrBanano: think this is what I'm thinking of "thermald" http://www.webupd8.org/2014/04/prevent-your-laptop-from-overheating.html but don't think I used the PPA to get it00:07
HerrBanano2gb RAM00:07
Ben64HerrBanano: maybe don't use unity then? or use unity 2d00:08
hoouseHello all. I have been trying to be able to change workspaces with the mouse. I used to be able to simply slide the mouse and when it hit the edge it went into the next workspace. No longer. I tried changing the setting in Settings - window manager - advanced - second setting. I'm using Xubuntu 14.04.00:09
wafflej0ckHerrBanano: yeah given the hardware I'd go with something lighter like XFCE or maybe give LXDE or LXQt a shot00:09
HerrBananoBen64, that's what i was trying to change. wafflej0ck ty00:10
HerrBananounrelated, any way to hide join/quit on freenode webchat?00:11
wafflej0ckHerrBanano: depends on the webchat, I use Quassel, think XChat will let you hide them too though00:12
HerrBananoxchat does00:12
HerrBananonvm, i'll try some suggestions you gave me and join via xchat after reboot. thanks.00:13
HerrBananobrb00:13
wafflej0ckHerrBanano: np good luck00:13
auscompgeekuhh, qwebirc does let you do that00:13
auscompgeekit's in the options00:13
auscompgeekBen64: unity 2d? there's no such thing00:14
Ben64oh, well it used to00:15
BTJusticeI am trying to create some gpg keys.  I am new at this.  I have them created, but I had to do every command as sudo since not doing so kept displaying errors in terminal.  Is that the right way?  Also, as a user, do I need to be able to access /home/ME/.gnupg ?  I have to open Seahorse as sudo using terminal to see them.00:18
=== CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob
Ben64BTJustice: you should not have to do that as sudo00:20
Bananognome fallback seems to make a huge difference already00:20
Ben64BTJustice: and you probably shouldn't be running seahorse (or any gui application!) with sudo00:20
=== Banano is now known as HerrBanano
Bashing-omBTJustice: ^^^, for reference: ls -al .gnupg .. All files are ownned and grouped by "you" .00:23
BTJusticeSo should I revoke the keys as sudo then recreate new ones as a regular user?00:24
Ben64you should probably stop using sudo and fix the files/folders you messed up in your home directory00:25
Ben64although, that would require a little bit of sudo00:25
BTJusticeI haven't changed any permissions.00:25
Ben64by using sudo on graphical applications, you sure have00:25
Ben64BTJustice: pastebin the output of.... "ls -ld  ./ .gnupg/ .gnupg/*"00:26
BTJusticeI didn;t create anyhting as sudo using graphic apps.00:27

Chuck_NorrisBTJustice: try:   sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME/.gnupg/00:30
BTJusticeBen64: This is what I did: I wanted ot encrypt some email so I tried ot make some keys using gpg in terminal.  I noticed commands where having errors so I ran them all as sudo.  I guess sometime before all this that folder must have been created for root right?00:30
Ben64BTJustice: you really need to be more careful with sudo00:31

jwashcan someone help me figure out a permission problem? I use deluge to download a ubuntu iso via bit torrent, I copy it to a non-internet computer via samba, then i want to delete it. i can't delete it because of permissions, untill i chmod -r 777 the directory. any ideas00:36
BTJusticeShould I take ownership of the files within there?00:36

UTLHello. When I copy files to a mini SD card directly using an adapter plugged into my laptop, the process is extremely slow, and even hangs. It's so bad, that I have to restart my computer to get it to stop hanging! My other alternative is to use Windows, because it works there, but not Ubuntu. HELP!02:32
UTLI am transferring files, and it is hung, even as I'm typing. I need an immediate answer!02:33
chalcedonyUTL, are you using commands or a gui?02:34
UTLI am transferring using the file manager (Nautilus).02:35
chalcedonythat ought actually to work, UTL02:36

UTLThe active light on my laptop is staying on, but there is little on-screen activity. It is transferring a nearly 500 megabyte file at KILOBYTES per second! It goes nearly instantly under Windows.02:38

UTLHmmm. I think I found my problem. It just displayed dozens of lines that say "end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector (input number here)" and it also says several times "mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt."02:40
somsipUTL: seems like it. I have no idea what that means, but it should give you something to research from02:41

Bananodustinspringman, wouldn't backing up the files and start over be a better idea?02:43
Bashing-omdustinspringman: What leads you to suspect any startup service as a problem rather than the boot files in general ?02:43
UTLResearch? What should I research? I don't have much to go on, here.02:43
dustinspringmanI'm pretty sure its related to a service I was testing.. i ran apt-get update and it errored.. after reboot it now hangs.. =/02:43
somsipUTL: you have an error message.02:44
dustinspringmanI'd like to just shut off that service out of startup, pretty sure it will come back02:44

UTLObviously.02:44
UTLI'll see what I can look up.02:44
somsipUTL: so why ask the question what to research when you have an obvious point of reference to use in your research...02:44

cfhowlettLinuxGold, daily foul-mouthed idiot.  safe to ignore.04:13
mbufcfhowlett, somsip that code works fine on other distributions, hence the question here04:13
somsipmbuf: it all depends on the content of .bashrc though. If there is no match, result is empty and you're find. If you get 2 lines in the result, -eq is not a valid comparison. I could be well wrong, but it looks like a potential bug to me04:14
somsip*you're fine04:15
mbufsomsip, the answer 'No' is correct; but, my question was on the error part04:15
LinuxGoldof course.04:15
grimlock_hello ubuntuners!!!!04:16
somsipmbuf: do you understand what I said before? I does not look like -eq is a valid comparison between the output of grep and "".

m000gleI use Chrome/Chromium application launcher shortcuts in order to pin websites such as Google Calendar, Feedly etc to my launcher/dock, and would like to specify a window size, which the window will open to each time.04:37
m000gleI've tried: Using the command-line switchers "window-size=x,y" and "--app-window-size=x,y"; as well as the X standard "--geometry=wxh+0+0".  However, Chrome/Chromium seems to ignore all of the above.  I've tested this both in the Open Source and Google branded browsers.04:37
m000gleAre there any ways to force a specific window size upon launching a Chrome/Chromium application launcher shortcuts .desktop file? [Ubuntu 14.04, Unity desktop environment / Google Chrome Version 39.0.2171.71 (64-bit) / Chromium Version 39.0.2171.65]04:37

celexim00gle whenever i open a window from a shortcut in chrome it opens on its previous size04:41
celexiit doesn't do that for you ?04:41
m000gleTry maximizing the window, closing the window while maximized, and then opening it04:41
m000gleWhen I do this, it will forget the previous window's size, and default back to its minimum size, barely big enough to fit the window decorations and forcing me to resize it manually04:42
celexiyeah it bugs out that way for me as well04:42

Schnabeltierchenin the repo is a acpi-debugger-tool, forgot his name, but i also used it to get my power key working properly... start in verbose, and press your key,if a keypress is singalized in terminal, you have to check the acpid config for the script05:40

EriC^^KamalKaur: anybody can kill bash before it writes the history file btw09:24
KennyJBKamalKaur, are you seeking some type of real-time monitoring?09:25
b00b00I am looking for an idea, i have little widget i wrote on node.js and i want to add basic auth mechanism, is there a way on ubuntu level some how to do it? not node.js or apache auth i am looking for. thanks09:25
KamalKaurEriC^^: Using cat will not show the users, but only the commands used09:26
KamalKaurKennyJB: Is there something like that in your knowledge?09:27
KennyJBtop/htop are probably the best for that unless you need to see specifically which commands are being entered09:28
EriC^^KamalKaur: you can use this find /home -iname ".bash_history" | while read e; do echo $e; cat $e; done09:29
EriC^^KamalKaur: it will state the path of the file before cat'ing09:29
EriC^^use cat -n if you want it numbered09:30
ash`Also man strace might be useful depending on what you want to see.09:31
KamalKaurEriC^^: Ok09:31
KamalKaurAnd how does the admins manage it all?09:31
KamalKaurWhat all they do and use in their routine?09:31
KennyJBKamalKaur, lsof, ps, who, last, tail09:32
KennyJBRead the manual files for these.  Also look into what the various logs in /var/log/ are.09:32
KennyJBYou can pretty much monitor everything on your system with those.09:32
KennyJBThere's not really one central application that tracks user activities globally, that I know of anyway.  Most just use a mixture of these tools to find out what they need09:33
KamalKaurAnd how do I know what do I need? o.O09:35
KennyJBWell, it's easier to define what you need to do09:35
KennyJBAnd then to decide how to use those tools to do it09:36
KennyJBTo make a lame analogy...  It's how a carpenter builds a house with a hammer and tape measure, versus there just being a "house building machine".09:36
EriC^^KamalKaur: this is better, just occurred to me for i in /home/*/.bash_history; do echo $i; cat -n $i; done09:36
KamalKaurEriC^^: yeah.. Thanks09:37
KamalKaurKennyJB: Actually I'm a beginner to SysAdmin things. Just searching for what all are my duties and routine works. On searching I found that SysAdmins do a lot of things, they monitor the working, logs, security etc09:38
KennyJBI would suggest reading the manual to lsof.  It's one of the more complex of the ones I mentioend and you should be able to get an idea of what it is useful for09:39
irgendwer4711hi, I have a problem with ubutnu 14.04 and xen 4.4. Xen does not mount disk images via loop after update from 4.1. Somehow Xen use qemu to emulate an IDE drive. why?09:39

nossgingmmucHi, I have a samba share on my linux and I wish to access it from a Windows Service built in c#. The issue I am having is that my service is unable to copy files from that local computer to the samba share. I am suspecting there is some issues with authentication or folder rights.

dns53TheBigDeal so the driver you may need may be ported from a future release. there are also tuning options that work either better as a server or better as a desktop or in the middle12:48
TheBigDealhmm12:49
dns53TheBigDeal do you optimise for responsiveness and have threads do less work more often or or throughput and have each task do more work each slot but have less things running concurrently12:51
TheBigDealdns53, what do you mean?12:51
dns53TheBigDeal the ubuntu kernel makes reasonable choices and has parts from different versions of the kernel ie they may patch a video driver directly from upstream for a new just released video chip not included at the time of release13:00

ubottuTo disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html13:07

TheBigDealcan i remove the old linux kernel images?13:30
TheBigDeallike the 3.13 versions13:30
calimero_82hi guys13:30
mgedminTheBigDeal, newer versions of ubuntu mark those as autoremovable, so you can sudo apt-get autoremove13:30
=== dellavg is now known as zz_dellavg
mgedminTheBigDeal, older versions don't do that and you basically had to find out what versions you had installed (ls /boot was the way I used to do that)13:31
mgedminand sudo apt-get remove linux-image-X.XX-YY-generic ... all of them13:31
TheBigDealmgedmin, hmm, I don't know there's nothing to do autoremove to, but i can see some files13:31
mgedminbash's {}-expansion helps here a lot, e.g.: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.13-{21,22,23,24,59}-generic13:31
TheBigDealmgedmin, uname -r13:31
mgedminjust be sure you keep the latest kernel and the one you're currently running13:32
TheBigDealmm13:32
calimero_82guys when you get the : system program problem detected , the name of the software that crashed where you see ? which folder ? I am not accidentally marked the name of the software crashed when I pressed on details13:32
mgedminoh, make that sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove, that'll also remove the no-longer -headers packages iirc13:32
TheBigDealmmmm13:32
TheBigDealokay13:32
mgedmincalimero_82, it's somewhere in the details dialog; what do you mean "accidentally marked"?13:33

OpenTokixcalimero_82: look in dmesg - it will say what generated the kernel issue. - But it is probably not related to the actual problem, but something else. - And my inital guess is always io-related.13:35
TheBigDealBen64, nothing to autoremove13:36
Ben64TheBigDeal: then you probably don't have extras13:36
mgedminthe autoremove method keeps the last 3 or 4 kernels "just in case"13:37
TheBigDealhmm13:37
mgedmine.g. I've four kernel packages on my 14.10 system and apt-get autoremove won't remove any13:37
TheBigDealok13:37
TheBigDealmgedmin, got that13:37
OpenTokixTheBigDeal: If you want the latest and greatest kernel, there is instructions how to build a custom kernel. - I would never install a kernel-ppa in to my system. Since they might make mistakes, that will affect a lot. If you promptly need latest, build a kernel from your working config.13:38
cfhowlett3 or 4? pretty sure autoremove doesn't retain more than most recent 2 kernels ...13:38

Then it says 'starting system logging deamon', and the VM uses 100% but never gets networking or a console login, so I 14:59

degvaOpenTokix: Yes15:02
OpenTokixdegva: Yes, usb is a crappy thing that uses a lot of cpu for operations, somewhat better iwth usb3 - but only slightly. - So it is blocking io with many many software interrupts, that is why your compute slows down to a crawl when copying to usb.15:03

pseubodotThe 14.10 netinst (on amd64 and i386) complains about kernel module version mismatch and cannot complete installation; ('anna: WARNING ** no packages matching running kernel 3.16.0-24-generic in archive'). Netinst build is 352 (dated 22-Oct-2014)16:13
diphtherialso, i guess the question boils down to this: do i install this modified 3.16 kernel that includes focaltech touchpad support?16:13
mcphailMTip: if you have a very old player you could consider installing Rockbox on it: much better audio and a drag-and-drop interface16:13
diphtheriali'm not sure what the drawbacks are of using a previous version of the kernel; i just installed 14.10 yesterday, and i'm not sure what kernel version it's using16:13
diphtherialaccording to the guy who's maintaining the focaltech fix on the 3.16 kernel, he's kept it "up to date", whatever that means16:13
kqrhey awesome people! lspci reports my NIC as Intel Corporation Wireless 7260, which according to intel themselves should be supported in the 3.13+ kernels. the ubuntu live USB doesn't seem to agree – I can't connect to any wireless networks. does anyone know why this might be?16:14
MTipi have ipod nano 616:14
kqr(I run the 3.16 kernel in ubuntu 14.10)16:14
MTipno chances to install there any i think16:14
Peanutpseubodot: It can happen that your netinst is serving a kernel that is older and not working with the udebs being served at the moment. Simply download the latest netboot.tar.gz and put it on your tftp server, that should fix it. Happened to me a few weeks ago too.16:14
pseubodotPeanut: Understood. There is no more recent build on http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-i386/16:15
mcphaildiphtherial: unlikely to have any problems running a 3.16 kernel. Alternatively you could compile 3.17 and try applying the patch to that. You can always select the original kernel from the bootloader16:16
pseubodotPeanut: ditto no newer netinst on http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-i386/16:16
pseubodotPeanut: netboot.tar.gz files all date 22-Oct-201416:16
mcphaildiphtherial: patching and compiling a kernel is easier than you'd think16:16

trismshaan: you need at least libc6:i386 installed or when you try to execute a 32bit binary you get that No such file or directory message17:34

bashfulwould i be able to make that my own ip address?18:04
zerowaitstatebashful: type "man nc" and read the documentation18:04
zerowaitstatebashful: you can make it your own ip address, but convention is to use the loopback network 127.0.0.0/8 when communicating with yourself18:06
lubos_boucek_Hello.18:06
zerowaitstatefor example, 127.0.0.118:06
zerowaitstatebashful: using the loopback bypasses the NIC and just uses the local network software stack. using your own IP requires that the NIC be online18:07
bashfulzerowaitstate: that works18:07
zerowaitstatebashful: just remember, if you send a message to loopback, you also have to listen to it on loopback. in geirha's example listener, he is binding to all interfaces. if you bind to a specific interface, and the sender is sending on localhost, you also have to listen on localhost18:09

bashfulany message i mean.18:12
zerowaitstatebashful: yes18:12

MikeRLHmm. It shows a range of IP addresses.20:05
MikeRLBut how do I know which one to ping if I can't connect to their VPN?20:05
MikeRLI just connect to their service via the Gnome Network Manager applet. Doesn't connect.20:06
holsteinMikeRL: i would ask whoever it is you are talking about20:06
holsteinMikeRL: whomever supplies you the vpn..20:06
MikeRLBut I think it may be an Ubuntu-specific bug.20:06
holsteinMikeRL: you need to specify the connection settings20:06

MikeRLhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/198136/error-when-trying-to-connect-to-vpn-on-startup20:31
MikeRLFirst answer with 5 upvotes.20:31
MikeRLWhat exactly does "password-flags=0" do?20:32
delti need some files in /tmp to be kept across reboot (for kerberos authentication) - where's the command that clears /tmp on boot?20:32
ms_@delt can you just move the files from tmp?20:33
ms_and then put them back after reboot?20:33
deltms_ the kerberos stuff expects it in /tmp,20:33
deltoh... then what about if there's a power failure?20:33
ms_well I would think you would have the files backed up20:34
deltdirty kludge... better to just not remove them to begin with20:34
MikeRLSo... The password flags line does what?20:34
ms_@delt, you could have a script replace them on boot. From another directory.20:34
ActionParsnipdelt: /tmp is in RAM, it is in tempfs20:35
ActionParsnipdelt: you will need a command to put the files there on boot20:35
avid_fandelt: Might check here: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/01/19/changing-the-tmp-cleanup-frequency/20:35
delt[pts/18][user@laptop]:~$ mount | grep -i /tmp20:35
delt[pts/18][user@laptop]:~$20:35
ActionParsnipdelt: you can't make it not remove so its your only optoon. Not a kludge at all. RAM contenrs are lost on shutdown20:35
ActionParsnipdelt: df -h | grep tmp20:36
Ben64ActionParsnip: i don't think it is tmpfs by default20:36

zykotick9ActionParsnip: fyi, my 14.04-based system also doesn't have /tmp as tmpfs...20:38
ActionParsnipdelt: not sure where it is wiped. I have /tmp in tempfs to keep the system clean. Could you not use another folder like /opt20:39
deltActionParsnip: i think i'd have to recompile the kerberos stuff for that20:39
ikoniaerrr no20:39
ikoniathere is no need to recompile kerberos20:40
ActionParsnipdelt: I see. All I can think is to have a cp command in /etc/rc.local until you can find what is clearing it20:40
deltunless there's some flag to kadmin that is undocumented or something like that20:40
Ben64what about avid_fan's suggestion?20:41
Ben64<avid_fan> delt: Might check here: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/01/19/changing-the-tmp-cleanup-frequency/20:41

Justus_hi, got a problem here with ubuntu server, it seems that even though apport isn't installed somehow it is the default handler for dumps: kernel: [  431.461982] Core dump to |/usr/share/apport/apport 3175 6 0 3175 pipe failed20:52
ikoniahadifarn_: talk to your isp20:52
EriC^^Justus_: how come it's not installed?20:52
daftykinshadifarn_: #ubuntu-server and channels more relevant to DNS servers such as BIND would be best to talk in.20:52
Justus_cansaa is spamming querys...20:52
Justus_EriC^^: No idea, it's a regular install upgraded from 12.10 to 14.04 now20:53
avid_fanhadifarn_: Well, I've used BIND + Webmin in the past with rather good results. But for some very solid DNS servers, I prefer DJBDNS.20:53
hadifarn_ikonia: I'm hosting my servers on Rackspace. their Cloud DNS api is no good for our usecase.20:53
ikoniahadifarn_: then you have to purchase dns servers from a provider20:53
EriC^^Justus_: it doesn't show up in service --status-all ?20:53

hadifarn_ikonia: can't afford them. if it wasn't our last choice, I wouldn't have asked20:54
ikoniahadifarn_: then you can't host domains20:54
Justus_ikonia: thanks20:54
ikoniahadifarn_: it's that simple20:54
hadifarn_avid_fan: any reason for DJBDNS?20:54
hadifarn_you're not helping ikonia. I can if I run my own DNS server.20:54
ikoniahadifarn_: sure you can but a.) you need to know what you are doing b.) have multiple ones on different networks20:55
ikoniahadifarn_: based on what you are telling me you don't seem to hit either of those two criteria20:55
hadifarn_ikonia: hence the reason I'm asking here20:55
ikoniawhih is fine - but at the same time you can't host peoples domains20:55
hadifarn_I have good servers on Rackspace. reliable enough20:55
ikoniathats not really it though20:55
Justus_EriC^^: I have since then installed it, now it does show up (with a ?) but I'm still not that buzzed about that kind of surprise20:56
EriC^^Justus_: seems odd20:56
Justus_EriC^^: is the package somehow not required for 12.10?20:57
EriC^^Justus_: i dont think so20:58
avid_fanhadifarn_: Personal preference mostly. It's smaller and lightweight, and in my expereience very reliable. It does take a bit more to get your brain around, because as far as I know, there is no GUI.20:58

isantopSo I'm trying to issue a dbus-send command over ssh to lock my screen remotely. But complains that it couldn't connect to the session bus because the connection was refused. Anybody know how to solve that?21:20
indistyloActionParsnip : ^^ and Bashing-om : Prior to this problem mine graphics was working like charm, application like CCSM and cairo-dock was working with openGL like charm but recently according to ubuntu manager-update suggestions i installed all the updates, after rebooting this graphics problem started. There is mismatch between fglrx and mesa21:21
Bashing-omindistylo: IF there is a real need of a proprietary driver, the only thing one can do - that maintains ubuntu support - is to install release 12.04.1 and DO not enable HWE to install later harware stacks.21:21

saleemsuppose i have network file ip address as 192.168.54.21 in windows 7 how to access this ip from ubuntu 12.0421:25
Bashing-omindistylo: " Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.42-37-generic i686 Ubuntu " The kernel you want to run to have FGLRX driver, BUT there is now " Current Operating System: Linux aruns 3.2.0-72-generic-pae " >> that kernel is not supported by AMD (ATI) .21:25

saleemgive me the good correct of guide link i need to give company21:27
Bashing-omindistylo: I am not at all sure of a method - if any - to revert back to the 12.04.1 kernel series short of (RE-)installing .21:28

subterfugeI don't mind doing my own homework here, I just don't know what search terms to even use:  I have a image of an entire HDD (windows file system)  created with dd and I want to (from the command line) copy it to another external HDD as a fully functioning file system (clone)  --- What is this called so I can research it OR if anyone has time what is the proper command and string of variables to go with it?22:44
=== carlo is now known as Guest5408
seinthebearsubterfuge, check the DD manpage :P22:44
EriC^^subterfuge: did you copy the entire disk, /dev/sdx ?22:45
subterfugeseinthebear, already have it up, I just don't see may answer or anything close22:46
seinthebearohh22:46
EriC^^subterfuge: dd if=/path/to/image of=/dev/sdx conv=sync,notrunc,noerror22:46
EriC^^subterfuge: make sure of /dev/sdx you could wipe out a drive with it22:47
LinuxGoldhmm22:48
=== Guest5408 is now known as Devotion
subterfugeEriC, I used a Hardcopy 3P to image the HDD (embedded linux system using dd to create image) I want to use my Ubuntu box to now create my clone from it22:48
subterfugeEriC^^, thanks -- I read 'notrunc = do not truncate the output file'  -- what does that mean if you don't mind22:50
geniisubterfuge: Everything is a file. So /dev/sda  would be a file representing the entirety of the first hard drive. /dev/sda1 would be first partition on first hard drive. etc. So if you know the /dev/sdX device you want to clone it to, and the location of the image file you already made, then it's like dd if=/the/imagefile/you-made.img of=/dev/sdX    where if= means inputfile  and of= mean outputfile22:50
rod_Hi, is there a channel for GraphicsMagick anywhere? tia22:50
Jordan_UEriC^^: Why the conv=sync?22:51
subterfugeEriC^^, as for making sure of sdx and wiping a drive, this is and other aspect of dd is why I came to ask before going any further22:51

NTQIt has all the neccessary updates.22:54

NTQSorry, it's 12.04.5 LTS22:55
daftykinsnow it's up to date ;) other channel though yes.22:55
subterfugegenii, thanks that is a good read22:56
EriC^^subterfuge: notrunc isn't really needed when you write to /dev/sda22:56
EriC^^Jordan_U: http://superuser.com/questions/622541/what-does-dd-conv-sync-noerror-do22:56
subterfugeEriC^^, yea thats what I am reading, sounds like it is only mission critical when cloning to a partition but not needed went using a whole block level device22:57
subterfugeEriC^^, genii, and everyone else -- thanks -- this is what makes the community so great22:58
EriC^^subterfuge: it's critical when cloning to a file22:59

Loshkimarcelino: but seriously, start with hello world, and then write a small app that you personally find useful. Also, volunteering to maintain and fix bugs in other people's code will give you a very quick education in the difference between good, maintainable code and the rest.23:22
