user1on mint 17 u had a shield saying checking for updates and then green tick. is there anything like that on ubuntu00:49
daftykinsyes the update manager which pops up when there are updates00:49
NegativeFlareBut Ubuntu still doesn't update on its own.00:49
daftykinsthat's a good thing00:50
daftykinsalthough i think you're wrong, i've seen auto updated mechanisms00:50

SachiruRoot partition, boot partition, etc to LVM00:51
user1hey daft xbuntu slighly laggy. i guess its me lappy tho00:52
LoshkiNegativeFlare: I thought the update manager wakes up periodically, if you configure it right. And there's always cron I suppose. Some updates require manual interaction.00:52
LoshkiSachiru: do it all from a live CD...00:52
NegativeFlareLoshki: it does by default. It only wakes up and tells you have updates available. And to my knowledge it doesn't update packages automatically.00:53
NegativeFlareNow as for me, I've disabled update manager completely. I find it rather annoying.00:53
LoshkiNegativeFlare: that manual interaction thing again...00:53
NegativeFlareLoshki: What about it? I'm confused.00:53
daftykinsyeah what's the issue?00:53
NegativeFlareI know some packages require user input.00:53

Guest67819I had to chmod all Pictures and Music to 777 to transfer them. I want to change them back once the transfer is done00:58
Ben64Guest67819: 755 most likely00:58
NegativeFlareuser1: Depends on the system.00:58
Loshkiuser1: about the same. I've found chrome sound/flash buggy, irritating but not fatal.00:58
Guest67819Ben64, thanks! I am backing them up to an external HD, so when I complete my re-install, I can do chmod to 755?00:58
Ben64Guest67819: you should never ever have to chmod to 777, you definitely don't need to do that to transfer files. you're doing it wrong00:58
user1ok cool this ubuntu running sweet tho00:59
Guest67819Ben64, doing a regular drag +drop kept telling me I didn't have permissions. Rsync was skipping the same files, cp -rpv was not giving me the same file size00:59
Guest67819even with sudo enforced.01:00
user1can i give the xbuntu bit of colour everything grey01:00
Ben64Guest67819: you shouldn't have to use sudo to copy to an external drive. you should have checked permissions on the exact files causing you problems instead of chmodding everything01:01

They're not special or copied from somewhere else or anything. Most music was ripped straight from CD, and the documents were all created on Linux, using LibreOffice (no no sudo, etc)01:10

k1lbatbird: ubuntu is not responible for your configuration and use of the system :/01:27
Guest67819Ben64, I'm not sure I understand the question. I never created any file as root. Only as the user found in the directory /home/Jackson01:28
Guest67819So user Jackson created them all01:28
batbirdk1l: I know. I mean, I'm a regular Ubuntu user, but got exploited somehow. I'm paranoid as you can see (using tor).01:28
Ben64Guest67819: yes that would be the assumption, however since you had problems copying a directory set as 700, which would supposedly give your user full control over it, i'm not so sure01:29

noeAMD|8-CORE FX-8350 4.0G 8M...I wouldn't say perfectly happily. had to change a setting in bios to make it go02:59
daftykinsnoe: reinstall disabling updates from online, it should boot then. once up, you can try installing a proper nvidia driver before updating for the first time03:00
noeok, I'll give that a shot. Anything I should do prior to reinstalling?03:03

ICantLinuxI've tried that method, but with no success. Only closing a window while still maximized and restarting works.03:14
ICantLinuxAnd even then, that's only until I attempt to maximize again.03:14

daftykinsnoe: well now, that was just step #1... so you've reached the desktop post install, but you might need to do some other things too04:18

daftykinsi did vaguely consider it was one of the unsupported cards04:22

gr1zzly_be4rok04:27
daftykinsgr1zzly_be4r: though without reading logs we can't be 100% sure your problem is graphics related04:27
gr1zzly_be4ris there a way that I could get those for you?04:27

R13osereisio: I found an add-on for firefox that does this04:28
noedaftykins: doing steps 1 and 2 didn't install an nvidia driver?04:29
daftykinsnoe: oh yeah i misread it the first time i saw that... did you reboot and run nvidia-settings since? i don't think nvidia-319 supports your card 0o04:29
reisioR13ose: gj04:30
R13osethanks04:30
daftykinsnoe: how's it looking?04:35
noerebooted (a couple of times to be sure). run nvidia-settings?04:36
daftykinsyeah, it's the program to confirm things are working04:37
daftykinsnoe: it also wouldn't hurt to fire up a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" so i can take a glance at what driver is in use and working04:37
noedaftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/952417804:41
daftykinsnoe: looks good, as per line 90 it's using the nvidia-331 driver04:42

Guest70352why ?10:43
cfhowlettGuest70352, USB size?10:44
Priceynaturalog: Not really, do whatever you fancy. Full image or diffs or anything.10:47
Priceynaturalog: But I reckon you'll have a better time if you think about this as two separate problems to be solved separately. backup programs don't care about encrypting the data, you can just store their output in an encrypted volume?10:48

MortezaEHi. suddenly indicator applet quited and i can't change language. Alt+Tab does't work. What to do?13:12
j0hnsm1thagent_white, yup! :)13:12
MortezaE* ALt+Shift i mean13:12
j0hnsm1thagent_white, during the greeter!13:12
agent_whitej0hnsm1th: `rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring`13:13
agent_whiteOr did you already remove that and reboot?13:13
j0hnsm1thi removed /.local/share/keyring/* , but after reboot those files are back there13:13
agent_whiteAlso check ~/.local/share/keyrings/ for "login.keyring"13:13
agent_whitej0hnsm1th: Alrighty, check inside .gnome213:13
j0hnsm1ththeres only ~/.gnome2/accels directory13:14
j0hnsm1thagent_white, i was trying to automatically unlock a usb 3g dongle, and i created the keyring during the greeter screen, maybe i need to look for the greeter user's keyrings?13:14
agent_whitej0hnsm1th: How did you create it inthe first place?13:15
j0hnsm1thagent_white, during the greeter screen there was an option to "automatically unlock this device" so i clicked it and created keyring through there, on the greeter screen13:15
j0hnsm1thso we are editing my users keyrings, but maybe its a keyring for the user that runs the greeter, im guessing?13:17

remugientis there any video-editing software for Ubuntu?14:10
kraftbI have a ton of different linux-image-bla packages installed and my /boot is already out of disk space14:10
k1l_kraftb: remove the old kernel packages you dont need anymore14:10
kraftbbefore my upgrade to trusty I always had to "rm *-3.13.0-INDEX*" the old kernel before an apt-get upgrade could work properly14:11
kraftbk1l_: How do I find them all? :)14:11
k1l_kraftb: "dpkg -l | grep linux-image14:11
phre4kkraftb: don't remove them via rm but via aptitude / apt-get remove14:12
phre4kremugient: search in the software center. There's for example OpenShot14:12
kraftbdpkg -l lists all packages. Not just installed ones.14:12
kraftbAnd "-L" doesn't allow a pattern14:12
k1l_kraftb: well, then pipe again through a grep for ii14:13
k1l_kraftb: "dpkg -l | grep linux-image | grep ii"14:13
remugientphre4k, I don't want to use a shotglass to open my anus.  that's dangerous.  haven't you seen one guy one jar?14:13

kraftbok. Using cut and xargs did the trick14:15
kraftbIts now removing some 3.8 kernels also14:15
kraftblooks my ssd is spoiled with ancient kernel :)14:15
zebra111what kernel did you originally have kraftb?14:16
kraftbI don't know exactly. Just the default generic image of the old LTS14:16
amadews Hy all14:16
kraftbNow I upgraded to the new LTS and had problems because I created /boot so small intially14:17
SuperEddySUPEREDDY HAS ARRIVED!14:17
eric_Hi.   Since some updates last week (including plymouth and xfce4settings), when I reboot, I don't get a graphical environment.   I have to switch to the first text console (ctrl-alt-f1), login and do "startx" to get going.  Any ideas?14:17
SuperEddy!ops | waaaa14:17
kraftbIts an old mistake. Ten years ago you didn't need hundreds of MB for /boot because just the kernel was there.14:17
kraftbNowadays (in ubuntu times) theres the boot image, a lot of modules for grub. etc.14:18
amadewsone ask to all any one have a lenovo T530  if yes have the bios file for him in rom extension ?14:18
kraftbI guess I will make /boot half a GB from now on.14:18
kraftbBut then having encrypted partitions doesn't make sense again :/14:18
k1l_you need a seperate /boot at all?14:18
kraftbMy /root is on an encrypted partitions (using cryptsetup) and / and swap are in an lvm14:19
kraftbI had a separated boot back then to make the whole stuff easier. If I would have assigned enough space this would also be the case. But now I have a lot of problem because of the tiny /boot partition14:20
user1353excuse me.where i can found folders location of not use file?(such as junk file, temp, etc..).thx.14:20
kraftb(It's 128 MB)14:20
pbxuser1353, what is your goal?14:20

zebra111gH05t http://askubuntu.com/questions/170640/how-to-disable-apache2-server-from-auto-starting-upon-boot-up14:21
kraftbSo. Now all the unnecessary kernel packages are purged.14:23
user1353pbx, because my free space of /home increased . i want to delete unknown files.14:23
kraftbWhich kernel image should I use for Trusty?14:23
zebra111user1353 if you want to free up some space, you may consider removing unused packages with apt-get autoremove14:23
kraftbor a manual remove :)14:23
user1353pbx, and i must know which the files can be delete without give system crash.14:23
pbxuser1353, the primary temp dirs are all outside of /home.14:24
kraftbI found quite a bunch of packages I never used14:24
zebra111kraftb yes :)14:24
kraftbBTW: Where is a list of installed packages14:24
CatKilleruser1353: you might benefit from running "du -hs ~/"14:24
user1353CatKiller, thx. but i need other folders14:24
zebra111I thought it was apt-get list but I'm not sure14:24
CatKillerand then drilling down to see what is taking so much space14:24
kraftbOk. Maybe just dpkg -l | grep ii14:24
user1353zebra111, ok .thx. i will try use that command.14:25
kraftbBut I remember from debian times that there was a list somewhere in /var/lib/apt14:25
pbxuser1353, you can get a list of big files in /home like this: find /home -size +10M -ls14:25
k1l_kraftb: what about the linux-image-generic?14:25
eric_user1353, have you cleaned up the apt cache??   Usually "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo apt-get autoclean" will free up some space.14:25
kraftbk1l_: Is this the default?14:26
kraftbI saw some linux-image-trusty14:26
pbxuser1353, wait, what do you mean by "free space of /home increased"?14:26
k1l_kraftb: that is a metapackage which links to the default14:26

user1353CatKiller, i wiil try.14:28
ccapndaveHeyho - has anyone used SANE with an HP scanner?14:28
draven33any setting with alighmet with the cube ?14:28
draven33sorry14:28
ccapndaveI'm finding that it works fine with the flatbed, but if I use --source ADF all of a sudden the resolution goes right down14:28
zebra111ccapndave my hp printer's auto document feed's max resolution is lower than the max resolution of the flatbed14:29
zebra111not sure about your model though14:30
user1353CatKiller,"du -hs ~/" command , it is danger?, i have try but i canceled with ctrl+c because when i try, my harddisk led hardwork.i'm sorry. what is that?14:30
ccapndavezebra111: I don't think so - I've used it on Windows/OSX and it does high res through ADF14:30
zebra111ok14:30
user1353CatKiller,* work hard14:30
zebra111user1353 no, it is not danger.14:30
CatKilleruser1353: yes it's analyzing the drive14:30
ccapndavezebra111: Anyway, these are super super low res, like one level of zoom makes it all pixelated14:30
eric_user1353, du command just reads and totals usage. Nothing dangerous14:30
ccapndavescanimage --mode Gray --resolution 300 --format=tiff --batch --source ADF14:31
ccapndaveThat looks ok, right?14:31
eric_ccapndave, what HP scanner do you have?14:31
zebra111maybe try --resolution 60014:31
ccapndaveeric_: Its an Officejet Pro 8600 all in one thingy14:31
user1353zebra111,ok.14:31
ccapndavezebra111: It seems that changed the resolution has no effect14:31
ccapndavezebra111: I'm just going to double check that :)14:31
eric_Most HP scanners with document feeders have lower resolution for the feeder than for the flatbed.14:32
eric_The reason for the lower resolution is the scanner head stays fixed, and the document feeder moves the document past it, so the movement is less precise14:32
ccapndaveeric_: This is crazy low though14:32
ccapndaveeric_: I'm sure its not intended functionality from the scanner14:32
user1353CatKiller, ok . when i try "du" (without parametre) .the process is fast. but when i use "du  -hs ~/" it is slow.ok try again.14:32
user1353eric_,ok thx. i still try.14:33
eric_OK.  It shouldn't be that much different.  Which scanner are you using?14:33
eric_what model?14:33
ccapndaveeric_: HP Officejet Pro 860014:33
zebra111ccapndave did you check the document resolution with a program like gimp?14:33
ccapndavezebra111: I'll have a look in Photoshop14:33
user1353CatKiller, *ok i will try again14:34
CatKilleruser1353: It goes at the same speed, "-s" means "summary" so that it doesn't print every single file14:34
=== Unibob is now known as DJ_Unibob

Seveasjavnut: so echo $RANDOM always prints '1'?15:19
javnutSeveas: no, I just put sleep random and then the echo15:20
Seveasjavnut: that's not what I asked...15:20
zebra111javnut try typing echo $RANDOM a few times and attach the output15:20
javnutSeveas: I know, but I didn't echo it out15:20
SchrodingersScatalso, you didn't call $RANDOM you called RANDOM15:21
SchrodingersScator do $(()) negate that somehow?15:21
SeveasSchrodingersScat: that still works inside $((15:21
javnutSchrodingersScat: I believe it's supposed to15:21
Seveasjavnut: so please do what I asked. Add an echo $RANDOM inside that loop.15:22
SchrodingersScatyep, seems to15:22
javnutSeveas: ok15:22
SchrodingersScatcould store the $RANDOM% and check it15:23
SeveasSchrodingersScat: I actually have a different hunch, but don't want to accuse javnut of doing something stupid before I have evidence :-)15:24
EriC^^javnut: not sure if this is the reason why15:24
EriC^^but you have that random in a while loop15:24
EriC^^that probably runs 200,000,000 times per sec or something, so its bound to hit "1"15:24
SchrodingersScatbut it should sleep longer than one at least once15:24
SeveasEriC^^: it doesn't if you sleep for the right amount of seconds :-)15:25
SchrodingersScatworks as expected on my machine15:26
javnutSeveas: it returns nothing15:26
Seveasjavnut: that explains then.15:27
EriC^^nevermind, i think it has to wait for the first sleep to finish to do another15:27
SchrodingersScatright15:27
Seveasyou've probably set RANDOM to a specific value, once you do that, it loses all special properties15:27
javnutSeveas: I haven't, not in the script15:27
EriC^^Seveas: not really RANDOM=0; then echo $RANDOM still works15:27
SeveasEriC^^: try unset RANDOM15:27
zebra111try RANDOM=43938475 then echo $RANDOM15:27
EriC^^yeah it returns 015:28
EriC^^if you unset it15:28
Seveasbut yes, I was wrong with saying 'setting to specific value', only unsetting triggers this15:28
Seveasjavnut: also, $RANDOM is a bashism, running the script with /bin/sh or with #!/bin/sh as shbang won't work.15:29
javnutSeveas: I'm running it with gnome-terminal -e15:29
Seveaswell, don't.15:29
zebra111javnut is it on a server or a desktop?15:30
javnutSeveas: but what if I want to see the output?15:30
Seveasthat uses system() I think, which uses /bin/sh15:30
Seveasjavnut: run it with bash15:30
Seveasin a running terminal15:30
javnutSeveas: nope, I need to start it without a terminal15:30
javnutcan I do gnome-terminal -e bash /path/to/script.sh?15:31
EriC^^javnut: you're running it in cron?15:31
Seveasjavnut: just use #!/bin/bash as shbang15:31
javnutEriC^^: yeah15:31
javnutSeveas: yeah, I have it15:31
Seveasthen how are you starting it?15:32
javnutSeveas: cron15:32
Seveassigh...15:33
Seveasthen how are you starting it with cron?15:33
Seveaswhat command are you running?15:33
javnutSeveas: scheduled tasks15:33
EriC^^you can use gnome-termial -e "/bin/bash -c '/path/to/script.sh'"15:33
zebra111javnut what command is being run in cron?15:33
EriC^^javnut: if you want to keep the terminal open after it exits you can use  gnome-termial -e "/bin/bash -c '/path/to/script.sh'; exec bash"15:34
EriC^^*gnome-terminal15:35
EriC^^sorry, gnome-terminal -e "/bin/bash -c '/path/to/script.sh; exec bash'"15:35
javnutzebra111: gnome-terminal -e /path/to/script.sh15:35
javnutEriC^^: I don't want the terminal to "stay open"15:36

NamevacHi folks, I was wondering if it was possible to add some action/code to execute just after specific apt package update is applied. I already have googled it and found that we can apply our own scripts right after apt-get upgrade, but it would get launched for anything but just the specific program update I want :x15:50
NamevacHave you more information to give me about that? :)15:51
Namevac(if not, I guess I'll focus on inotify)15:52
freerouteOerHeks: thanks, I assumed it would be something using the 'service' command or 'update rc.d' - so do I have to manually adjust config files of each different service to tell it not to start at boot/login?15:54
KrapulatHello, I have problem between two servers. From server A I can’t ping to server B, but from server B I CAN ping to server A. From any other server, I can ping to both. Both servers haven’t any rules in iptables. What can be?15:54
OerHeksfreeroute, yes.15:54
cfhowlett!server | Krapulat server gurus might have that answer15:55
ubottuKrapulat server gurus might have that answer: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI.

bynarieeverytime i open a link outside of firefox, for example, IRC, it opens firefox and asks me to make it the default browser, even tho it is.. any ideas how to fix?18:27
bynarieive used the sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser method, still asks to make it default18:28
zebra111bynarie does firefox prompt you (with a gui) to make it the default browser?18:31
leggHello, thought I'd try this.  First time in IRC for about 15 years18:32
bynariezebra111, yes but i think i got it figured out.. i just unticked the "prompt for default" on the firefox settings tab18:32
nick07i'm not able to get into my samba shared harddisk which is server by a sitecom x7 router.18:34
daftykinsnick07: via what method?18:34
nick07the share name is /hd/ and i see it in the network, but i cannot open the folder18:34
nick07ehm method, what do you mean exactly?18:35
daftykinsok so you're using nautilus18:35
daftykinsgraphically trying to look at it18:35
nick07yes nautlius18:36
daftykinsnick07: what i would do is install smbclient and try a test connect from the terminal18:36
nick07ok, let me see18:36
nick07one moment18:36
daftykins"smbclient //mypc/myshare"18:36
nick07smbcient isn't samab itslef right, because i have samba installed also on ubuntu18:37

daftykinssud: really, it'd make a lot more sense to just backup and clean install.18:42
daftykinsnick07: does your router page mention anything about login requierd?18:43
daftykins*required - e.g. username + pass?18:43
OerHeks 13.04 >13.10> 14.04 i would go for a fresh install18:43
nick07yes i have, in the usb settings, it set on samba share and has a login (admin) and pass18:43
fwaokdawhat is my /usr/bin/local/ directory for?18:43
daftykinsnick07: ok try "smbclient //router IP/share -U username"18:44
nick07ok..18:44
daftykinsit should prompt for a password18:44

EriC^^notmorpheus: what do you mean safe18:48
EriC^^ah ok18:48
notmorpheusi changed umask and adduer.conf so that others perms would be disabled18:48
notmorpheusi am wanting to lock down what's already on the box heh18:48
rypervenchenotmorpheus: Yeah, that would work.18:49
nick07i don' see anything weird in there18:49
nick07a log named log.%m18:49
daftykinsnick07: what version of ubuntu is this?18:49
notmorpheusrypervenche: thanks18:49
nick07uhm, there is a ls command right18:50
nick07ehm18:50
daftykinswat18:50
nick07ehm a command to see the version18:50
daftykins"cat /etc/issue"18:51
daftykinsor "lsb_release -a"18:51
nick07ow sorry18:51
rypervenchenotmorpheus: Personally, I like to use the find command to give all of my files and directories specific permissions, but yeah. chmod will get it done :)18:51
notmorpheusrypervenche: true true18:51
notmorpheusrypervenche: i just wanted to make sure i wasn't forgetting something since most folders are r-x under / in Ubuntu18:52
notmorpheusfor other i mean18:52
EriC^^notmorpheus: you're doing that on your home dir right?18:52
notmorpheusNope!18:52
notmorpheushehe18:52
notmorpheusi wanted to do it -R from root18:52
EriC^^oh my18:52
EriC^^what for?18:52
nick07it is 14.1018:53
daftykins>_<18:53
rypervenchenotmorpheus: The only reasons you would need permissions on other is if you need others to be able to see the things in there. Often you would need execute on directories if you're using is as a web server document root.18:53
rypervenchenotmorpheus: Doooooon't do that. Only do it in your home directories.18:53
notmorpheusrypervenche: ok, will stick to dirs under /home18:53
notmorpheusthanks18:53
notmorpheusit makes sense under home. don't want a cracked account to be able to see other people's home contents18:54
notmorpheusbut i suppose for anything outside of there it doesn't make sense18:54
rypervenchenotmorpheus: Yep. I always make my home dirs 700.18:54
notmorpheuswouldn't o-rwx keep someone on a cracked account from viewing system configuration files etc though?18:55
notmorpheussince they can't switch to root and also can't read as other (files owned by root:root)18:55
rypervenchenotmorpheus: It would, but it would also keep some services from being able to view them.18:56
notmorpheustruth. ok. good enough then :-)18:56

nick07weird is, i can see the harddisk as a folder in network, but i cannot click it18:57
daftykinsnick07: yeah, did you try and install some samba packages on your machine before trying to do this then?18:58
nick07i already had samba installed18:58
nick07is that a problem?18:59
daftykinsnot sure, there's just not much point unless you're sharing too18:59
nick07so you say, uninstall samba18:59
daftykinsnope18:59
daftykinsoh... what file system is on the disk? maybe it's not supported by the router19:00
compdocI install samba just for the machine to participate on a windows network19:00
daftykinsthat's nice but not particularly relevant here19:00
nick07see this image, it's the same as my settings: https://www.gebruikershandleiding.com/bestanden1/567242/bg28.png19:01
daftykinsnick07: except with a password entered?19:02
nick07yes, i entered a password, but i always shows blank19:02
nick07*it19:02
daftykinsnick07: i can only suggest making sure you click apply, then try rebooting the router and ubuntu machine to see if anything changes19:03
daftykinsotherwise i suspect your disk isn't set up right, as i don't think smbclient failing is a good sign19:03
cromagUSB ubuntu install issue: Are there any specific "rules" on how to create an ubuntu usb drive ? - i have tried 2 different USB sticks but i get the same error on both. I checked the md5 sum to be sure it was not the ISO. I am using the universal USB installer. http://i57.tinypic.com/mic2eo.jpg is the error i get(can this be a bios issue ?)19:04
nick07so i go to network i see workgroup and click on it, i see smbserver (then url changes to smb://smbserver/ and then nothing19:04
nick07O this issue is a problem for months now, i did a reboot, firmware update other ubuntu's ect already19:04
daftykinsnick07: firmware update on the router? have you factory reset it since?19:05
nick07some people said that i might be a harddisk root problem19:05
=== Blaster is now known as crazynuts
=== crazynuts is now known as Blaster
daftykinsnick07: i would confirm from a windows computer if you can. i have a feeling it's not working for other OSs19:05
nick07yes factory reset yesterday19:05
daftykinscromag: hmm looks interesting, 'sde' - lots of hard disks in that computer?19:06
nick07mm, no windows... :(19:06
cromagdaftykins: 3 ssd disks19:06
cromagwell 2..19:06
daftykinscromag: is there some kind of memory card reader connected?19:06
daftykinsthat might account for drives from sda to sde19:06
nick07but maybe dumb question, but isn't a samba share great to use on linux and should i work perfectly?19:07
cromagdaftykins: there is, thats where i placed the USB stick, both for writing and reading19:07
nick07*it19:07
daftykinscromag: oh good lord, pull that sucker out and connect the drive to the motherboard USB instead. preferably USB 2.0 -19:07
cromagthis is connected to some USB on the back.19:08
cromagi'll give it a go either way - i'll get back to you :)19:08
daftykinsnick07: yeah, but then we can't really trust silly router implementations19:08
diamondsyo, how do I get a service to not run on boot?19:09
diamondstried: sudo update-rc.d mongod disable19:09
nick07could the problem lay in formatting the drive IN linux to fat32?19:10
diamondsgot this: http://hastebin.com/raw/aqotutasus19:10
daftykinsnick07: what does the router manual say it needs to be?19:10
diamondsassuming I don't wish to "LSBize" the script, is there a manual way to disable it that will allow me to start it manually if desired?19:10
diamondsstepping away from computer for a moment so TIA19:10
nick07fat 32/ntfs19:11
daftykinsnick07: what's in the router logs too? anything samba related on that end>?19:11
daftykinsit's definitely worth a go connecting the drive to the computer and nuking it properly to see if it makes a difference19:11
cromagdaftykins: i might need to ask differently. My goal is actually yo install Ubuntu ON the USB drive. So i have 2 sticks, one to install from, and one to install to. Is there any more "correct" way to achieve this ?19:12
=== ara is now known as Guest76817
daftykinsoh :( why on earth do you want to do that?19:12
nick07nothing19:13
cromagi really don't want to boot the live USB evertime..19:13
daftykinscromag: so these two SSDs you don't want to install to them at all? 0o19:13
cromag(ubuntu on the go)19:13
cromagcorrect19:13
nick07If i hang the usb ssd drive on the laptop, the only one that has read and write acces is the owner(me)19:13
daftykinsso use Universal USB Installer to add some persistence to the drive - is that what you did?19:13
nick07group and other is set to none19:13
nick07could that be an issue?19:14
daftykinsyou can't have permissions on FAT19:14
cromagdaftykins: i have not added persistence to it, as i thought the solution with the other USB stick would be better, as i can only set 4gb in the installer.19:14
cromagand the stick is 16..19:14
cromagcause of fat maybe..19:15
=== Guest76817 is now known as ararob
ponyofdeathanyone know why partman stops at No volume groups found when I am not using lvm? trying to preseed a box19:15
daftykinscromag: better way would be to boot from DVD then install to the one drive with the actual SSDs/HDDs in the system disconnected19:15
daftykinscromag: well no you can't install to FAT, you'd need to nuke the drive and create ext4 partitions. you'd need to create no swap with a flash drive too, else you'll kill it19:16
nick07so group and others set to none is defenatly not the problem?19:16
ararobcan i get 2x MSAA (antialiasing) from the MESA intel driver ?19:16
daftykinsnick07: plug the drive into the computer and run a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"19:16

nick07If you don't mind i will try that tommorrow, my dad had closed the connection which i had through teamviewer19:18
nick07excuse for that19:19

daftykinsJavaJosh: ;)19:19
nick07may i ask what you would try to do?19:19
cromagwow my dvddrive spins... im impressed19:19
daftykinsnick07: see what partitions are on the disk, nuke it and start again (if it's blank)19:19
daftykinscromag: \o/ exciting times :)19:20
nick07ok, thank you, I will try to come back soon.. thanks for your time19:20
daftykinsnick07: no problem :) cya19:20

ararob"EFI Boot Stub makes it possible to boot a Linux kernel image without the use of a conventional UEFI boot loader. By masquerading itself as a PE/COFF image and appearing to the firmware as a UEFI application, an x86 kernel image with EFI Boot Stub enabled can be directly loaded and executed by a UEFI firmware. Such kernel images can still be loaded and run by BIOS-based boot loaders; thus, EFI Boot Stub allows a single kernel image to work in any21:10
ararob boot environment"21:10
ararobthat's pretty cool21:11
OerHeksararob, sccording to 'our' manual, x86 and UEFI can be a hassle, besides the question if all hardware is supported in 32 bit.21:12
OerHeks!uefi21:12
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI21:12
grennich_I think this may be a hardware issues but, anybody know why my server will just all of a sudden stop accepting all connection.  The server will still be on and I will have to manually reboot it to fix it. But after maybe 2 weeks or so the computer will not allow any connections to it, all current ssh connections are frozen, will not even accept pings.21:14

alesanbekks, I used NTFS for this external hdd but it's ABSOLUTELY slow23:18
alesanless than one MB per second when writing23:18
alesanin FAT32 it was MUCH faster, but I have files that are too big for FAT3223:19
alesansome files are more than 30GB23:19
bekksalesan: then there is nothing you can do about it, unfortunately.23:19
alesanabout how slow it is?23:19
alesanbut why is it so slow?23:19
daftykinsalesan: what about exFAT?23:20
alesandaftykins, what about it23:20
daftykinsi don't know your original question but you said file size limit of FAT and slow NTFS, so why not exFAT? :P23:21
alesanisn't exfat also a user space driver?23:21
alesanI'd assume it is as slow as NTFS for that reason...?23:21
daftykinsdon't know what you're up to23:22
alesanI need to copy some big files to a external hard disk, to be used on windows also23:23
daftykinsget a better disk23:23

MrSavageHi all, I'm wondering how I should change my default file manager?23:42
MrSavageI want to make it so that my firefox uses a different file manager and my recycle bin changes to the file manager too23:42
MrSavageis the best way to do this is use a different or customized window manager?23:43
MrSavageBecause I tried making nemo as my default file manager before and it was very hackish and firefox would not change to the different file manager23:43
EriC^^MrSavage: maybe if you dpkg-reconfigure nemo it will set it23:44
EriC^^it's a long shot23:44
MrSavageEriC^^, what does that command do?23:45
EriC^^it reconfigures the installed package23:46
MrSavageEriC^^, and you think it will fix firefox?23:46
=== Termana is now known as Guest38653
MrSavageEriC^^, it didn't work23:47
