| bodhi_ | Hi all, I have no idea about how to set the keyboard layout on bodhi 3.0 rc2, any help would be really appreciated, I spent some hours today | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| reisio | set it to what? | 00:08 |
| daftykins | bodhi as in a distro other than ubuntu? | 00:08 |
| bodhi_ | it derives from ubuntu 14.04 plus enlightenment | 00:09 |
| k1l_ | best is to ask the bodhi support. see on their website where its located | 00:09 |
| bodhi_ | to italian layout like it_IT.UTF8 | 00:09 |
| reisio | it_IT.UTF8 sounds more like a locale than a layout | 00:09 |
| bodhi_ | sorry | 00:10 |
| rww | !based on ubuntu | 00:10 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 00:10 |
| bodhi_ | I probably did mistake, but I would like my netbook keyboard to work either with keys like ][=- | 00:11 |
| rww | ask the bodhi linux folks for support, then | 00:11 |

| MrSavage | the biggest problem i have is the filemanager used for firefox | 00:17 |
| reisio | ? | 00:17 |
| === Shadow__X3 is now known as percY- | ||
| k1l_ | MrSavage: firefox is a browser. | 00:20 |
| MrSavage | Yeah but at least on windows it had a decent file picker | 00:20 |
| MrSavage | that's what bothers me | 00:20 |
| reisio | decent? | 00:20 |
| MrSavage | well i could view thumbnails and it saved zoom preferences | 00:21 |
| reisio | what DE are you using? | 00:21 |
| MrSavage | I meant the view could be shifted into tiles/thumbnails instead of detailed list view. | 00:21 |
| MrSavage | reisio: what's DE? | 00:21 |
| bodhi_ | if I had to ask a way to monitor processes from console , you would answer to use the top command although I am on an ubuntu based distribution | 00:21 |
| k1l_ | bodhi_: please dont mix that over and over again. come in here if you use ubuntu. not if you use somewhat other and we dont know what they changed there at all. thanks | 00:22 |
| zebra111 | bodhi_ to my knowledge ubuntu has a top command | 00:23 |

| MrSavage | reisio, what did you mean by DE? | 00:23 |
| squinty | desktop enviroment | 00:24 |
| bodhi_ | I think there is a low level way to set keyboard layout | 00:24 |
| k1l_ | MrSavage: desktop enviroment | 00:24 |
| MrSavage | reisio, i'm using unity | 00:24 |
| rww | bodhi_: I'm sure the creators of the distribution you *actually use* will be happy to help you with that | 00:24 |
| rww | and if not, well, maybe you shouldn't use unsupported unofficial Ubuntu derivatives | 00:24 |
| squinty | MrSavage: might want to ask in #firefox here on freenode re thumbnails etc | 00:27 |
| MrSavage | yeah | 00:27 |

| friizz | Yes | 00:33 |
| David-- | hi, trying to install ubuntu from minimal cd and it keeps hanging after selecting the archive choice to download from. I've configured the network correctly and selected different mirrors.... any help please? | 00:33 |
| k1l_ | raulo: we dont support wifi hacking/cracking in here. if you really need that tools please read into the documentations. | 00:33 |
| squinty | bigbang: afaik, yes. then check in nVidia X server settings for setup (it is install with the driver) | 00:34 |
| Bashing-om | David--: Connected to internet wired ? The kernel should detect and set up networking . | 00:35 |
| David-- | Bashing-om: Yes wired but no DHCP, I have definately set it up correctly though | 00:36 |
| Bashing-om | David--: Step 1: is the card recognized ? -> sudo lshw -C network <- look in the configuration line to make sure a driver is loaded ( Mine: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=8139too ) . | 00:38 |
| SoundLogic | EriC^^: What should I do next? | 00:39 |
| David-- | Bashing-om: yes the card is recognised as it gives me the option to configure it manually | 00:40 |
| Bashing-om | step 2: 2. IP address assigned ? -> ifconfig eth0 (or whichever the network is,eth1) . | 00:41 |
| David-- | just setup a DHCP server so going to try that | 00:41 |
| EriC^^ | SoundLogic: ls -l /usr/share/command-not-found/programs.d/*all-ma* | 00:42 |

| EriC^^ | SoundLogic: what happens if you type cat instead of ls -l ? | 00:45 |
| David-- | Bashing-om: It detects the card but doesn't detect the DHCP server and manual configuration is correct but just hangs again after selecting the mirror to download from | 00:47 |

| Bashing-om | David--: Like I say, unless you are doinf something exotic, in the Minimal CD install, you should have to do nothing for networking to be set up . All you get is a core install with networking . | 01:08 |

| zebra111 | What should one do if one reports a bug but after 6 months nobody appears to be doing anything with it? | 01:11 |
| MrSavage | it's just lacking too much in features | 01:12 |
| MrSavage | zebra111, you fix it yourself | 01:12 |
| zykotick9 | zebra111: that can be "normal"... unfortunately | 01:12 |
| Wulframn | zebra111: find a new package that replaces the functionality of the prior one or fix it yourself | 01:12 |

| epyx | the sweet thing is, thanks to a home folder with all your configs a reinstall isn't that time consuming :) | 02:51 |
| thongbkvn | Hello everybody :) | 02:51 |
| bubbasaures | phunanon, Than be really clear, you said it did not log in, bit yet it does in a tty, do you see what I mean? | 02:51 |
| phunanon | and created another account, but I really just want my old one back. I need it | 02:51 |
| zykotick9 | phunanon: "ls -l ~/.Xauthority" who owns the file? | 02:51 |
| bubbasaures | but* | 02:51 |
| Guest40662 | I accidentally ran it. it seemed to install some kind of parted magic OS and opened that.... | 02:51 |
| Guest40662 | I didn't know what was happening, but my HD was getting really loud | 02:52 |
| phunanon | I do | 02:52 |
| zykotick9 | phunanon: nevermind then... good luck. | 02:52 |
| phunanon | My account, phunanon; the acc I'm logged into | 02:52 |
| phunanon | That's... all I can do? I have all my settings and College work and ugh xc | 02:53 |
| phunanon | Where else do I go? | 02:54 |
| acmeraptor | backup your stuff people. case in point^^^ | 02:54 |
| Bashing-om | Guest40662: Now that "might Be a Problem " .. what is the status of 'parted magic' . Still running, or have you exited out ? | 02:54 |
| phunanon | You can't back up Firefox extentions stuff... and settings... | 02:54 |
| phunanon | I can still access my stuff | 02:54 |
| Flannel | phunanon: Just be patient here, someone will be able to help you. Your data is still there, don't worry about that. So anyone who tells you to reinstall is silly. | 02:55 |
| Guest40662 | I got out of Parted Magic, trying to get back to booting into Ubuntu now... It is trying to boot into windows | 02:55 |
| phunanon | I just need this to go onto my old Unity... installing Xfce4 changed something | 02:55 |
| Guest40662 | okay. I am back to the original error, where I face a black unresponsive screen with a flashing cursor | 02:55 |
| bubbasaures | phunanon, Do a install reinstall of the ubuntu-desktop that is unity | 02:56 |
| Flannel | phunanon: You'll want to write up your problem succinctly, so new people can quickly get up to speed on your issue (this is a constantly changing channel). However you're going to need more details about what you added/removed if you've got them (or at least current symptoms). In the mean time, I agree, try a reinstall of ubuntu desktop (sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop) | 02:56 |
| bubbasaures | that's where I would start | 02:57 |
| phunanon | What's the cmd to reinstall jush quickly? | 02:57 |
| phunanon | *t | 02:57 |
| guest_ | Snake2k, well, it worked. thanks | 02:57 |
| pingjocky | settings_autosave = ON | 02:57 |
| Bashing-om | Guest40662: Boot to the grub boot menu. With the ubuntu kernel with an asterisk to the left press 'e' key for edit mode -> boot paramters screen. Arrow down to line similar "linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic root=UUID=217ed9a7-e11a-4e32-8c05-992e8c8932b6 ro quiet splash $vt_handoff" ; arrow across to the terms quiet splash and add the term "nomodeset" - without the quotes. key combo ctl+x to continue the boot process . Do you now get to | 02:58 |
| Flannel | phunanon: `sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop` | 02:59 |
| bubbasaures | phunanon, sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 02:59 |
| phunanon | I'll do that after it's normal install for good measure... | 03:00 |
| phunanon | *its | 03:00 |
| bubbasaures | try Flannel's first phunanon | 03:00 |
| Flannel | phunanon: Don't use the installer, that doesn't make any sense. | 03:00 |
| phunanon | It was too late xD Now using --reinstall | 03:00 |
| Guest40662 | Bashing, I am actually unable to get to grub now. So, I have a bit of a hack of a dual boot going. I set Boot mode to UEFI to boot from windows, and Legacy to boot from ubuntu. When it is set to Legacy, I can't get into grub | 03:00 |
| agent_white | Evenin folks | 03:01 |
| phunanon | Okay, that's reinstalled, apparently | 03:01 |
| dzine | Good evening agent White. | 03:01 |
| phunanon | It didn't work again :c | 03:02 |
| phunanon | I try to log it, and in a flash, at the top left, there's an error dialouge | 03:02 |
| phunanon | *in | 03:02 |
| Bashing-om | Guest40662: I have no experience with UEFI, others I hope can assist . But need to boot to the GUI and perhaps from Additional Drivers, reinstall a graphics driver . | 03:04 |
| Guest40662 | What is the difference even | 03:04 |
| Bashing-om | Guest40662: A lot, main board firmware, and partitioning scheme and booting process . | 03:05 |
| phunanon | To recap, I installed xfce4 while using Unity, I want to keep Unity, I tried uninstalling all of xfce4, I can no longer log into the account as it flashes black then returns to the greeter | 03:06 |
| phunanon | Any ideas? | 03:07 |
| Guest40662 | and apparently how to get into grub... | 03:07 |
| Guest40662 | Strange how some of these things are so difficult to google. | 03:08 |
| AnonUnk | ESC should do fine | 03:08 |
| Guest46560 | Hello, how can I tell what graphics driver I should be using? | 03:09 |
| Guest40662 | To recap, I killed my x server, now I boot into a black unresponsive screen. Now I am trying to boot into grub to set nomodeset, but cannot get to grub | 03:09 |
| AnonUnk | by your GC manufacturer | 03:10 |
| Guest40662 | I am using boot mode legacy, I have tried c, esc, shift, and shift c | 03:10 |
| Guest46560 | AnonUnk, it appears there are multiple options | 03:10 |
| AnonUnk | What are they? | 03:11 |
| Guest46560 | nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx from what I understand, AnonUnk | 03:12 |
| Guest40662 | hey that's funny, guest46560 . I was in your shoes 2 hours ago | 03:12 |
| Flannel | phunanon: What error message is given? Also, next to your login name, is there a gear? If so, click it, what options does it give you? | 03:13 |
| AnonUnk | then you should try to install nvidia grafics drivers | 03:13 |
| Guest40662 | I was installing a new nvidia driver, it said to kill my x server, I did so and now cannot boot back into ubuntu | 03:13 |
| Guest46560 | Guest40662, so don't do what you did??? haha! | 03:13 |
| Guest46560 | Guest40662, I have it working fine, but can't get video from Minitube | 03:14 |
| Guest40662 | yes. do not kill your x server | 03:14 |
| take_a_dump | Hi, I have a question about ubuntu. Can someone here help me please? | 03:14 |
| reisio | take_a_dump: once you ask your question | 03:15 |
| AnonUnk | Then there may be error logs about x server in logs | 03:15 |
| take_a_dump | Okay well my question is this: | 03:15 |
| take_a_dump | I defecate too much. What should I do? | 03:15 |
| reisio | I wonder what too much is | 03:16 |
| Guest40662 | most people have the opposite problem | 03:16 |
| Flannel | Or we could just not feed the trolls. | 03:16 |
| michael6969 | I'm on 14.04 and trying to run a script via cron and save the output to a file. I'm editing the root crontab with `sudo crontab -e` and entering the following which works fine when run on the shell "*/1 * * * * /home/michael/temps.sh > /home/michael/temp-info/temp-`date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S.%N"`" but doesn't run in cron. I see entries in /var/log/auth.log but they just say "session opened" and "session closed" | 03:17 |
| Guest46560 | Guest40662, on my last Mint install i had the same problem. Trashed the whole thing, took me forever to get a GUI. | 03:17 |
| Guest40662 | well that is far from comforting | 03:18 |
| Unicum | ciao | 03:18 |
| phunanon | Guys! Okay, so, Unity was busted for starting at login | 03:19 |
| phunanon | but, I switched to MATE | 03:19 |
| Unicum | really | 03:19 |
| phunanon | After naving through.... that... I managed to run Unity | 03:20 |
| Unicum | i'm using gnome shall | 03:20 |
| phunanon | now, I have, like, Unity, but the cursor is a cross | 03:20 |
| phunanon | And no windows have borders... | 03:20 |
| phunanon | My unity launcher!!! | 03:22 |
| captine | hi all. not 100% ubuntu related, but for some reason both firefox and chrome are telling me their flash is unsupported on youtube etc... I check plugins and shockwave flash is the latest in firefox. Anyone else had this issue? http://imgur.com/YfcSA0K http://imgur.com/DhnvWYQ | 03:22 |
| reisio | my eggo! | 03:22 |
| captine | running 14.04 | 03:22 |
| phunanon | I used unity --replace | 03:22 |
| reisio | captine: probably not the latest | 03:22 |
| phunanon | how do I get this to stick? ._. | 03:22 |
| underline | captine, from my understanding adobe no longer supports linux. | 03:23 |
| reisio | underline: :p | 03:23 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | captine: you have to upgrade flashplugin from distribution | 03:23 |
| reisio | captine: you just need a more recent version of Flash is all | 03:23 |
| reisio | although it is infinitely stupid for Firefox to attempt to be smarter than you in this fashion | 03:23 |
| reisio | as the older version of Flash works just fine | 03:23 |
| reisio | they've basically broken your youtube as a personal favor to you | 03:23 |
| reisio | don't forget to thank them | 03:23 |
| captine | reisio, thnx. but not sure how to update if firefox says I am running the latest. Thanks all. The weird thing is even Google Chrome is giving me the message but Chrome comes with flash included... | 03:24 |
| reisio | 'latest' isn't a version | 03:24 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | it was discovered a security issue, so Firefox blocked that plugin verison | 03:24 |
| reisio | and you update software on GNU/Linux using your package manager | 03:24 |
| reisio | anyways, all the version of Ubuntu from 12.04 up have the _actual_ latest version that you want available to them | 03:25 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | we had the same problem in Manjaro Linux, but yesterday the new flashplayer was on repositories and now Firefox works fine again... | 03:25 |
| reisio | you just need to update | 03:25 |
| reisio | all the versionS* | 03:26 |
| Finetundra | is there any way to get the green ambiance theme from ubuntu MATE on regular ubuntu? | 03:26 |
| underline | reisio, I think he was asking how to perform the update ;) | 03:26 |
| reisio | same as any other update | 03:27 |
| reisio | updating is updating | 03:27 |
| reisio | Finetundra: yes, copy it | 03:27 |
| Finetundra | reisio, how or from where? | 03:27 |
| reisio | Finetundra: any way you please, from where it is :) | 03:27 |
| reisio | Finetundra: it's probably available in a/set of .debs, though | 03:27 |
| xangua | there is an ambiance colors pack in gnome-look.org Finetundra | 03:28 |
| Finetundra | reisio, sigh. was hoping for something less vague, but that works i guess | 03:28 |
| reisio | Finetundra: I was too :) | 03:29 |
| underline | captine, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Chromium/Getting-Flash | 03:29 |
| reisio | underline: all he needs is to update his system in the normal fashion | 03:30 |
| underline | captine, sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree | 03:30 |
| underline | reisio, no it doesn't do the non free by default | 03:30 |
| reisio | underline: he already has non-free | 03:31 |
| underline | obviously he don't | 03:31 |
| reisio | there is no non-non-free version of Flash, Flash is Flash | 03:31 |
| underline | lol | 03:31 |
| reisio | he just has an old version | 03:31 |
| underline | yeah | 03:32 |
| lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 03:39 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, greetings | 03:39 |
| Snew | Salutations | 03:39 |
| lotuspsychje | cfhowlett: hello mate | 03:39 |
| cfhowlett | :) | 03:39 |
| Snew | What's shakin'? | 03:40 |
| Guest40662 | recent development: I boot and get the following message: ISOLINUX 4.0.7 2013-07-25 .... aborted. | 03:40 |
| Guest40662 | Than there is a prompt for boot: | 03:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: how did you create your usb stick? | 03:40 |
| Guest40662 | When I type anything, press enter, it says "Could not find kernel image" | 03:40 |
| Guest40662 | I didn't create the cd, my brother did for me | 03:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: wich ubuntu version? | 03:41 |
| Guest40662 | I have ubuntu 14.04 on my computer, the CD is an ultimate boot CD | 03:42 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: what are you trying to do exactly? | 03:42 |
| Guest40662 | I am trying to boot into Grub, some context: I killed my x server, now ubuntu loads into an unresponsive black screen (even magic sysrq keys don't work) | 03:44 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: did you try grub recoverymode? | 03:44 |
| Guest40662 | how do I do that? | 03:44 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: hold shift during boot, to enter grub then choose ubuntu(recoverymode) line | 03:45 |
| Snew | WIsh it had 3.12.35 kernel | 03:45 |
| Guest40662 | I am dual booting windows, and holding shift gives me windows recovery menu | 03:46 |
| lotuspsychje | !recovery | Guest40662 | 03:46 |
| ubottu | Guest40662: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 03:46 |
| lotuspsychje | Snew? | 03:47 |
| reisio | achew | 03:47 |
| Guest40662 | Where is Richard Stallman when you need him | 03:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Snew: wich ubuntu version did you have? | 03:48 |
| xangua | Guest40662: he doesn't even encourage ubuntu | 03:48 |
| Snew | Snow | 03:48 |
| Guest40662 | I know lol | 03:48 |
| Snew | It's Snew | 03:48 |
| Guest40662 | He would probably take my videocard out first | 03:49 |
| Snew | Ya know? | 03:49 |
| lotuspsychje | Snew: this is a support channel mate, keep it ontopic please | 03:49 |
| Guest40662 | I got into ultimate boot CD!! | 03:50 |
| lotuspsychje | do we have an usb create trigger for the new method that shows on ubuntu.com here? http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 03:51 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, this? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent#Installing_Ubuntu_on_USB_drive_using_Windows | 03:52 |
| Snew | Ubuntu 11.04 The Natty Narwhal | 03:52 |
| lotuspsychje | cfhowlett: well i dont see that universal usb maker on that wiki | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, must be something new. not here either: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Creating_a_bootable_Ubuntu_USB_flash_drive_from_Windows | 03:53 |
| lotuspsychje | !usb outdated | 03:54 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, indeed. that new page should be top-stickied IMO | 03:54 |
| lotuspsychje | !usb | lotuspsychje outdated | 03:54 |
| ubottu | lotuspsychje outdated: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 03:54 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm there was a way to get the word outdated right to the ops :p | 03:55 |
| lotuspsychje | forgot howto | 03:55 |
| lotuspsychje | cfhowlett: would be handy for new ubuntu users from windows right? | 03:56 |
| Guest40662 | How can I restore grub from inside linux? I have successfully logged in | 03:56 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, yeah, the easier, the better. that looks like a simple point/click solution. easy to read, too. | 03:56 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: boot into your recoverymode then from terminal sudo update-grub | 03:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: hopefully it will restore grub dualboot | 03:57 |
| lotuspsychje | !fixgrub | Guest40662 | 03:58 |
| ubottu | Guest40662: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 03:58 |
| Guest40662 | I did not have grub dualboot properly working | 04:02 |
| Guest40662 | previously | 04:02 |
| Guest40662 | I could never get Ubuntu to run in UEFI boot mode | 04:03 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: make your life easy mate, and install ubuntu on your full HD | 04:03 |
| Guest40662 | It is on my full HD.... | 04:03 |
| Guest40662 | oh you mean, don't partition HD? | 04:04 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: yes, loose windows once and for good | 04:04 |
| Guest40662 | I have SSD 1/2 Windows 7, 1/2 Ubuntu | 04:04 |
| Guest40662 | I am considering it... but I wouldn't be able to play like 75% of my Steam games ever again =/ | 04:04 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: with ssd and ubuntu64bit on your full hd, your system will go like rocket | 04:04 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: ubuntu has steam | 04:05 |
| Guest40662 | I know, but only fraction of games are compatible | 04:05 |
| Guest40662 | and I am facing many issues with the ones that are | 04:05 |
| Guest40662 | the whole reason i got into this mess is because I was trying to get a game working on Steam. I needed to upgrade my nvidia driver, which required me to restart my x server, which killed my ubuntu partition =[ | 04:06 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: did you have the right driver loaded in the first place? | 04:06 |
| Guest40662 | No. I just had the default driver | 04:06 |
| Guest40662 | I looked online for the driver compatible with my graphics card and tried to install that | 04:07 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: can you remember if you installed ubuntu with cable on/updates on? | 04:07 |
| Guest40662 | I didn't install ubuntu originally, my brother did it | 04:07 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: what grafix card chipset and driver do you have? | 04:08 |
| Guest40662 | geforce gtx 760 | 04:09 |
| Guest40662 | nvidia 304.125 was installed already, then I realized I needed 340.xxx | 04:09 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: is that an optimus card? | 04:09 |
| Guest40662 | I don't know what an optimus card is | 04:10 |
| Dislexyk | Kill the Desktop and install the .bin | 04:10 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: did the driver loaded by default not work good on your system? | 04:10 |
| Guest40662 | It didn't support OpenGl 3+ | 04:10 |
| Guest40662 | and yea, bunch of games did not work because of that | 04:11 |
| Dislexyk | STEAM asks for bleeding edge drivers, even though your game might still work without it | 04:11 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: is that a gtx 760M? | 04:12 |
| Guest40662 | no just 760 | 04:12 |
| Guest40662 | well, the games would start, but be black screen, or just not start at all | 04:12 |
| === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as J^D_is_coming_so | ||
| Guest40662 | I googled around, and found the cause of these problems is likely outdated opengl | 04:12 |
| Guest40662 | which requires updated graphics driver to update | 04:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: make sure if your card is an optimus technology | 04:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: if it does, you need nvidia-prime driver | 04:13 |
| Guest40662 | here it is: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-760 | 04:14 |
| lotuspsychje | !info nvidia-prime | Guest40662 | 04:14 |
| ubottu | Guest40662: nvidia-prime (source: nvidia-prime): Tools to enable NVIDIA's Prime. In component main, is optional. Version 0.6.7 (utopic), package size 11 kB, installed size 102 kB (Only available for i386; amd64) | 04:14 |
| Guest40662 | I don't think my card is optimus | 04:14 |
| Guest40662 | after some quick googling | 04:14 |
| lotuspsychje | dont see it neither | 04:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: you could try nvidia-current | 04:16 |
| Guest40662 | I was trying that, but when I installed it in synaptic, it broke like 50+ packages | 04:16 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: or switch around additional drivers section, until you got your crad good | 04:16 |
| Guest40662 | or warned me that it would | 04:16 |
| Guest40662 | my crad? | 04:17 |
| lotuspsychje | card sorry | 04:17 |
| lotuspsychje | :p | 04:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: with a beast grafix card like yours, you should be able to game properly | 04:17 |
| === Drone4fourl_ is now known as Drone4four | ||
| Guest40662 | I know right, and windows works out great for this. I use ubuntu primarily for development | 04:18 |
| Guest40662 | I never intended to play games on ubuntu, until I tried Kerbal Space Program on it, because only Ubuntu supports 64bit KSP. So then I continued to install games on Ubuntu, and I realized the issues with my card driver | 04:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: investigate your system a bit, check your syslog or dmesg for errors on your grafix | 04:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: there must be going something wrong with your driver | 04:19 |
| Guest40662 | !dmesg | 04:20 |
| ubottu | dmesg is a console command which outputs the kernel ring buffer - an important log for diagnosing problems in Linux. Often when something errors with hardware it will result in additional lines reported which can be seen by running dmesg in a console. | 04:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest40662: you can switch a name with /nick newnick, be more easy to find you :p | 04:20 |
| Guest40662 | So now I can log into Ubuntu with grub on a boot cd, but not any other way.... maybe my grub is messed up | 04:20 |
| === Guest40662 is now known as RickSanchez | ||
| === tekkbuzz is now known as Guest85946 | ||
| RickSanchez | alright | 04:21 |
| RickSanchez | the /help command doesn't give any output on this browser client | 04:21 |
| lotuspsychje | RickSanchez: i would try to startover fresh, install 14.04 with a cable + updates during setup | 04:21 |
| RickSanchez | !cable | 04:22 |
| lotuspsychje | RickSanchez: internet cable | 04:22 |
| RickSanchez | didn't think that would work | 04:22 |
| RickSanchez | oh | 04:22 |
| lotuspsychje | RickSanchez: its important to choose the right driver from start | 04:22 |
| RickSanchez | thought it was some high level kernel-developer-esque term for something far more complex than I could ever understand | 04:22 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 04:22 |
| lotuspsychje | RickSanchez: do you have another machine to game from? | 04:23 |
| RickSanchez | Nope. I got a macbook pro, and this beast machine with Ubuntu/Windows 7 | 04:23 |
| lotuspsychje | kk | 04:24 |
| RickSanchez | now it has Windows 7/Black screen of death | 04:24 |
| lotuspsychje | RickSanchez: well we should have your machine run steam+ right drivers properly from ubuntu | 04:24 |
| RickSanchez | Yes, but first I'll need to do some major backing up | 04:25 |
| lotuspsychje | RickSanchez: wise choice :p | 04:25 |
| caseswitch | how do I sudo as user X? | 04:25 |
| lotuspsychje | caseswitch: i use sux for that, but package has been removed for security reasons | 04:26 |
| lotuspsychje | caseswitch: this way i can sux username firefox | 04:26 |
| caseswitch | can't I just sudo with some parameters? | 04:26 |
| RickSanchez | are you using X as a generic user name or is user X a thing? | 04:26 |
| RickSanchez | !user X | 04:26 |
| lotuspsychje | caseswitch: you can use gksudo also for that | 04:26 |

| caseswitch | Ben64: created a user but realized that that user is handicapped | 04:30 |
| Auv | Currently the lowest value is too low. | 04:30 |
| caseswitch | Ben64: that user needs sudo | 04:30 |
| Ben64 | caseswitch: ok, so add that user to the sudo group | 04:31 |
| caseswitch | Ben64: so I opened up another tty, logged in as a sudoer and 'adduser theuser sudo' | 04:31 |

| ChrisGibbs | anyone have any ideas how i can preseed a ubuntu 14.04 unattended installation and use eth1? It configures the network for the 2nd NIC but stops and prompts to continue as no default gateway is set. Our provisioning network doesnt have a gateway... eth0 is the primary port with a default GW. The provisioning network instead relies on a proxy server to grab content from mirrors. | 04:44 |

| moramis | Hi all. I just upgraded my server from 10.04 to 14.04 and ran into a few problems. The urgent one is that runit is broken. When I try to upgrade it, I get "start: Unknown job: runsvdir" and dpkg dies. I thought I'd just remove it and reinstall it, but it threatens to uninstall everything that depends on it. Any tips? | 05:34 |
| tekkbuzz | moramis: what would depend on it, it's an extra type package. I don't see anything that depends on it. | 05:38 |
| moramis | tekkbuzz: I'm showing bincimap-run depending on it. | 05:39 |
| moramis | I'll just remove that too and figure it out from there. | 05:40 |
| tekkbuzz | I don't see bincimap-run in the repos. | 05:40 |
| tekkbuzz | maybe it's been dropped. | 05:40 |
| moramis | Yeah this was a big jump. I'm surprised it went as smooth as it did. Of course, I haven't rebooted yet. | 05:41 |
| tekkbuzz | i had problems last time I upgraded, lucky I had some backups of my configs and stuff. | 05:42 |
| moramis | I put it off because it never goes well. ;) | 05:42 |
| tekkbuzz | yeah, that's what i do. | 05:42 |

| UTL | Good evening, folks! I signed on because I have a recurring problem. I have downloaded Audacity for Windows and Ubuntu. Audacity for Windows works perfectly, but ever since I got it for Ubuntu, it hangs and crashes during playback of songs. I have reinstalled, but this does not fix the problem. | 06:46 |
| bacon | so... any ideas if apps can still be installed on ubuntu 11.10? | 06:46 |
| UTL | I have noticed that Audacity is constantly being updated, so I partly wonder if it's buggy. To be sure, I want to know if anyone else has this problem, and/or if anyone can tell me how to fix it. | 06:48 |

| UTL | bacon: While I'm waiting for a response for my question, I can answer yours. I had Kubuntu 6.04 (Dapper Drake). The way I was able to get access to the necessary stuff was to change my repositories so it would be coming from http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/. | 06:53 |
| UTL | I don't know much about the version you're using. You may have to manually edit the sources.list file as root with a text editor. | 06:54 |
| UTL | That's what I did. | 06:54 |

| UTL | bacon: You might be able to change the repositories for 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) easily if you have Synaptic Package Manager. I'm glad you've been able to stay on an old version of Ubuntu that's still supported, but keep in mind any security hazards that may occur with an old release. | 06:59 |
| bacon | ararob: xubuntu 11.10 | 06:59 |
| bacon | UTL: actually I constantly upgraded, but it sucked harder each time, now there are too many issues and I need to draw a line and downgrade my dad's laptop to a version that's usable | 07:00 |
| caseswitch | what's "the way" to get the source code instead of binaries .. something something? apt-get source instead of install? | 07:01 |
| UTL | bacon: Uh-oh! Did you make a backup before you started, I hope? | 07:01 |
| ararob | bacon: is it a new laptop? last xubuntu runs fine on my 2008 laptop. | 07:01 |
| ararob | *latest | 07:01 |
| bacon | older 1gb laptop, leonovo f41, ararob | 07:02 |
| squinty | caseswitch: just type apt-get in terminal to see options | 07:02 |
| bacon | UTL: backup is irrelevant, a few files on a different partition | 07:02 |
| caseswitch | wait.. if I apt-get source, where is the source put? | 07:03 |
| bacon | laptop is having like 6 issues at least now, each release things got worse, it seems ubuntu is not very backwards compatible so to say | 07:03 |
| UTL | bacon: Phew! That's good. You know, if you need to, you can do a fresh install of the latest version of Ubuntu. That way, you can clear any old "leftovers" that might still be hanging around. | 07:03 |
| UTL | bacon: Can you list those issues? | 07:04 |
| bacon | UTL: leftovers never been an issue; even if a do a fresh install (which I did a while ago if I recall right), the install still sucks | 07:04 |

| bacon | plus it freezes on shutdown / restart | 07:07 |
| UTL | bacon: Sounds like it may be due to a crappy computer. I have a Sony VAIO that someone gave to me, but it was so old, slow, and buggy, it's now in my closet, and I'm using a brand new computer. | 07:07 |
| bacon | computer is fine, it's ubuntu that fails more and more with older hardware UTL | 07:07 |
| bacon | which is sad | 07:07 |
| ararob | bacon: how old is it? | 07:07 |
| ararob | latest xubuntu should do fine with a 10 year old laptop, considering mine is atleast 6 years old. | 07:08 |
| bacon | guess this one is about 7-8 hmm, came preinstalled with windows vista xD | 07:09 |
| bacon | even if using ubuntu or kubuntu, same issues; even tried lubuntu | 07:10 |
| bacon | it's about the kernel mainly | 07:10 |
| UTL | bacon: I know what you mean. It's not fair to give up old technology simply because it's old, especially if you can make good use out of it. Technology has a "high turnover rate", so to speak. You may buy a decent laptop, and five years later have to buy another one. | 07:10 |
| ararob | bacon: If i had to guess, it sounds like driver issues. | 07:10 |
| bacon | yeah | 07:11 |
| ararob | either unsupported hardware or buggy drivers | 07:11 |
| bacon | and reporting issues constantly doesn't get s me anywhere | 07:11 |
| bacon | because quite a few people have the same issues and they're not fixed even after more than 1 year, so basically nobody cares | 07:11 |
| bacon | I feel like giving up and installing windows xp or something *sigh* but might not have drivers as well | 07:12 |
| lasdam | hey. I'm getting no response from #httpd and I'm about to snap so I'll ask here as well. I wanted to re-install apache default configs since I got sick and tired of trying to find the needle in the haystack with what I had. doing apt-get remove --purge apache2 and apt-get purge apache2 and then apt-get install apache2 didn't install default configs, so I removed /etc/apache2 altogether. now I can't get it back. | 07:12 |

| ararob | bacon: If I were you i'd try to find out exactly which drivers they are, and what can be done. Maybe find a distro which supports it out of box. | 07:13 |
| lasdam | (this isn't just with apache anyway, I've had this problem many times before with other packages, trying to reinstall a program to its default state, but no configs seem to even be touched, and then they're not re-installed upon package reinstall) | 07:13 |

| ararob | well | 07:14 |

| bacon | might go for lubuntu 11.04 or so and fixing the repos manually, at least back then everything work except the webcam | 07:15 |

| UTL | squinty: Where do I get the later package? | 08:00 |
| * UTL gasps. The guy that was helping him has left! He supposes he's on his own, now... | 08:01 | |
| ikonia | UTL: what is the issue ? | 08:02 |
| UTL | ikonia: I need libsbsms 2.0.2-1, but Synaptic only lists 2.0.1-1, which it claims is the latest version. | 08:03 |
| ikonia | UTL: correct, that is the latest version your ubuntu version offers | 08:03 |
| UTL | ikonia: Audacity requires libsbsms 2.0.2-1 in order to work properly. | 08:04 |
| ikonia | are you sure ? | 08:04 |
| UTL | ikonia: Positive! This is the link I sent squinty, who was helping me at the time: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.0.6#Effects_and_Analysis Third line from the top. | 08:05 |
| UTL | I have Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. | 08:06 |
| ikonia | UTL: ok - so I suggest you log a bug to ubuntu to have (potentially) the build options of Audacity changed, or the 14.10 package back ported to 14.04 | 08:06 |
| ikonia | UTL: I assume you are using sliding time scale or pitch shift features ? | 08:07 |
| UTL | ikonia: Yes, and there are other problems that I think this package can fix, as well - if only I can get my hands on it! | 08:08 |
| ikonia | UTL: I suggest you log a bug to ubuntu to have either the build options changed or the 14.10 package back ported | 08:09 |
| UTL | ikonia: Would that be a pre-release update? | 08:10 |
| iamnoob | hi is there any one who tried ubuntu touch? | 08:11 |
| ObrienDave | UTL, ummm, no.... 2.0.1 is required http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/audacity | 08:11 |
| ikonia | UTL: detail this URL in the bug report and also a summary of the issues (as well as the bug details required) | 08:11 |
| ikonia | UTL: no, not pre-release | 08:11 |
| UTL | ObrienDave, ikonia: 2.0.1 may be required for Audacity for Ubuntu 14.04, but it does not work well. I'm going to change the sources to include what I want. | 08:13 |
| ikonia | UTL: do not change the sources | 08:14 |
| ikonia | UTL: log the bug | 08:14 |
| UTL | ikonia: I do not have a LaunchPad account. | 08:14 |
| ikonia | UTL: create one | 08:14 |
| UTL | ikonia: I also do not have a proper email address. All the ones I have send me ads, and I would not feel right using one of those accounts. I'd rather wait until I have a more secure email address to use in LaunchPad. Sorry for the inconvenience. | 08:16 |
| rww | iamnoob: yep, plenty of them in #ubuntu-touch (though it's quiet this time of day) | 08:17 |
| ikonia | UTL: you can use any email address you want | 08:17 |
| ObrienDave | also, if/when you bork/break your system/packages, please don't complain here | 08:18 |
| === ARMEN_ is now known as EREVAN | ||
| ObrienDave | ^ by changing sources | 08:18 |

| caseswitch | shortcut for clearing bash row? | 08:43 |
| === nha_ is now known as nha | ||
| Luyin | caseswitch: ctrl + u ? | 08:45 |
| caseswitch | thanks :). Luyin: it just clears the row, right? Nothing else? | 08:46 |
| === rawss is now known as rOss^64 | ||
| Luyin | caseswitch: as far as I know | 08:47 |
| Luyin | just found it out | 08:47 |
| Luyin | :D | 08:47 |
| caseswitch | I mean, it could copy it or something (like in nano: ctrl+k "cuts" the row) | 08:47 |
| Luyin | caseswitch: would that be a problem? the row is empty and the code isn't executed. so what else do you need? | 08:49 |
| caseswitch | Luyin: details matters. Don't know when. But when they do, I'll know them. | 08:50 |
| Luyin | well then I hope ctrl + u does what you need. good luck ;) | 08:50 |
| UTL | Whoa! I don't know if I fixed the problem or not, but I set the Playback/Recording device drivers to "sysdefault" in Audacity, and it seems to be working fine, right now. I didn't have to change the sources or report bugs, after all! :-) | 08:51 |
| ikonia | UTL: thats what the bug page you showed us said to do | 08:51 |
| ikonia | although it was suggested it was a build option, rather than a parameter | 08:52 |
| Mayer | hi | 08:54 |
| Mattias | Just wondering, has anyone else noticed the screen, when using ubuntu, turns off and on rarely each day? I notice this at work, and I've been wondering why it happens at home too when ubuntu is running. Running Ubuntu 14.04 at work, I believe I run 14.10 at home but not sure, might be 14.04 there too. | 08:56 |
| UTL | ikonia: True, but I thought that I had to modify the Audacity script, which would have been a pain in the neck. Sorry for all that I put you through. | 08:57 |
| ikonia | it's no problem, no pain this end | 08:57 |
| UTL | ikonia: I'm a very secure person, more than most people, which is why I said what I said about my email. I don't want to take any chances that might compromise my security... Well, not too many, anyway. | 08:59 |
| ikonia | UTL: I have no idea why you think signing up for launchpad will compromise your security, | 08:59 |
| eXistenZNL | secure about what? | 08:59 |
| UTL | ikonia: Maybe I should read their terms. | 08:59 |
| ikonia | UTL: and to be honest, you don't strike me as secure, as you're willing to blindly mix repos | 09:00 |
| ikonia | that seems the opposite of secure, but it's up to you what you do | 09:00 |
| UTL | ikonia: Point taken. I'll keep that in mind. | 09:00 |
| UTL | ikonia: At least I don't put all my trust at the feet of Bill Gates. Most of my private data is under Ubuntu. :-) | 09:02 |
| ikonia | UTL: no idea why you are stating anything about bill gates, that just seems a pointless blind statement | 09:02 |
| Aikilox | hi guys. Can you tell me why I can not install ubuntu 14.04 64 bit on my new computer? 32 bit version installs ok | 09:02 |
| UTL | Sorry. | 09:02 |

| ikonia | what's a bundle package ? | 09:05 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, ??? | 09:05 |
| anonymous_ | like vmware | 09:05 |
| anonymous_ | when i download it it gives me a bundle in ubuntu | 09:05 |
| ikonia | Aikilox: what are you trying to install ? | 09:05 |
| ikonia | Aikilox: sorry, not you | 09:06 |

| anonymous_ | yah | 09:08 |
| cfhowlett | david776, yes. please read the topic | 09:08 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: ok, so that is going to be a reasonably complex thing to pacakge | 09:08 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: can help me ? | 09:09 |
| Aikilox | ikonia, I am trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit | 09:09 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: it's not something I'd suggest doing as your first attempt | 09:09 |
| ikonia | Aikilox: whats the problem ? | 09:09 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, it's a proprietary product not created/maintained/supported by ubuntu. read the web page | 09:09 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: I'd suggest using their installer at this state | 09:09 |
| anonymous_ | hmm | 09:09 |
| DJones | anonymous_: You should probably contact webstorms own support people | 09:09 |
| anonymous_ | now how can i use this with serial key...it't give me a trial version for 30 days | 09:09 |
| david776 | I have recently downloaded Ub 14.04 LTS and wondering what could be the best App for movie making. Any guessssss | 09:10 |
| ikonia | anonymous_ that is a trail key | 09:10 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: you need to buy the serial | 09:10 |
| DJones | anonymous_: You'll need to buy a serial from the developer | 09:10 |
| anonymous_ | yah that's right | 09:10 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: thanks | 09:10 |
| cfhowlett | david776, "best" is subjective. YMMV. look in the software center. | 09:10 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: where do you live in ? | 09:10 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: doesn't matter where I live | 09:10 |
| david776 | cfhowlett: alright. let me try that/ | 09:11 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: that's fine. just want to know . | 09:11 |
| anonymous_ | if you don't want to , it's ok | 09:11 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, so you did NOT get this from the source but from a .torrent? so ... you want to crack it. Yeah, we don't do that. | 09:11 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: i just install xchat and join here | 09:12 |
| ikonia | great | 09:12 |

| anonymous_ | ikonia: can i ask one more question ? | 09:13 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: anything to do with ubuntu, sure thing | 09:14 |
| anonymous_ | thanks, how can make all of my packages like my installed software .deb file | 09:14 |
| anonymous_ | so that i can install it again using gdebi | 09:14 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: that is a complex process, the webstorm software is not something I'd suggest doing as a first try | 09:15 |
| ikonia | it's quite complex | 09:15 |
| anonymous_ | how about backup . | 09:15 |
| ikonia | what about a backup | 09:15 |
| anonymous_ | ubuntu backup | 09:15 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: what do you want to backup | 09:16 |
| anonymous_ | there is a option in system setting . called backup | 09:16 |
| ikonia | yes, | 09:16 |
| anonymous_ | i want know about backup | 09:16 |
| anonymous_ | how to backup and how to restore | 09:16 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: what do you want to know ? | 09:16 |
| ObrienDave | man backup | 09:16 |
| anonymous_ | if i change my ubuntu version | 09:16 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: so it depends what data you want to backup | 09:16 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: if you change your version you have to be careful about what data you restore | 09:16 |
| anonymous_ | yah | 09:17 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: so what do you want to know, whats the actual question ? | 09:17 |
| anonymous_ | my qustion is | 09:17 |
| anonymous_ | suppose i installed skype | 09:17 |
| anonymous_ | now i deleted the .deb file | 09:17 |
| anonymous_ | so how can make my installed file to .deb file | 09:18 |
| ikonia | ok, you'd need to re-download that | 09:18 |
| anonymous_ | ohh | 09:18 |
| ikonia | you get that from skype, or the ubuntu partner repo | 09:18 |
| anonymous_ | yah | 09:18 |
| anonymous_ | got it | 09:18 |
| ikonia | great | 09:18 |
| anonymous_ | are you a ubuntu user or ubuntu support team member ? | 09:19 |
| ObrienDave | both | 09:19 |
| anonymous_ | what about you ikonia ? | 09:19 |
| ikonia | I'm nothing to do with ubuntu | 09:20 |
| ObrienDave | omg | 09:20 |
| anonymous_ | are you a ubuntu user or ubuntu support team member ? | 09:20 |
| ikonia | just offering you some help | 09:20 |
| anonymous_ | ohh that's sound like a friend | 09:20 |
| anonymous_ | thanks again | 09:20 |
| ikonia | no problem | 09:20 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: are you there? | 09:25 |
| ikonia | yes ? | 09:25 |
| anonymous_ | can you tell me how to run a software from terminal? | 09:26 |
| anonymous_ | like i want run google chrome | 09:26 |
| anonymous_ | what will be the command? | 09:26 |
| anonymous_ | and also want to know how to uninstall a software using command | 09:27 |
| k1l | anonymous_: which desktop do you use there? | 09:27 |
| qis | Hi! | 09:27 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia : are you there ? | 09:27 |
| qis | Is it reasonable to use the ubuntu server image for a workstation template to prevent the installation of ubuntu-specific GUI applications and services that are not required? (e.g. unity) | 09:28 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: you shouldn't really need to run it from the terminal | 09:28 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: launch it from the launcher | 09:28 |
| k1l | anonymous_: its not about a single person. ask a question and people in here try to help | 09:28 |
| anonymous_ | i use unity @kLl | 09:28 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: read https://help.ubuntu.com and it will give you an introduction to how to use the desktop | 09:28 |
| anonymous_ | sorry i can't get your name :D | 09:28 |
| k1l | anonymous_: so press "windowsbutton + a" and type chrome. then press enter or click on the chrome icon | 09:29 |
| anonymous_ | yes i know. but is it possible from terminal? | 09:29 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: yes it is possible, but you shouldn't need to do it/do it | 09:29 |
| anonymous_ | ok fine | 09:29 |
| anonymous_ | i want to learn linux command. how can learn easily ? | 09:30 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, easily? No. you actually have to read and study. too much work for most people. | 09:30 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: no easy path, just experience and research | 09:31 |
| anonymous_ | hmm. can suggest me any book or website to start study about it | 09:31 |
| qis | anonymous_: Don't listen to people who say not to use the terminal. | 09:31 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, "the linux command line" free book download. | 09:32 |
| qis | anonymous_: You learn more from using command line tools and can fix your OS even when the GUI part is broken. | 09:32 |
| anonymous_ | qis: i want to use terminal for work almost everything, that's why i choose this. | 09:32 |
| k1l | qis: at that state that is totally overshooting | 09:32 |
| anonymous_ | cfhowlett: thanks | 09:33 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, you should install ubuntu-server ... no gui. command line only. you'll learn very quickly | 09:33 |
| qis | k1l: If he was not interested - yes. If he's already interested in learning, then we shouldn't stop him. | 09:33 |
| k1l | anonymous_: start using ubuntu. if you get comfortable you can look what is behind | 09:33 |
| anonymous_ | hmm | 09:33 |
| anonymous_ | hay friends don't go to argument | 09:34 |
| anonymous_ | so i am downloading linux command line book | 09:34 |
| anonymous_ | i join here to get help from experts like you | 09:35 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: we will help you with anything ubuntu related | 09:35 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: that's sounds great. | 09:35 |

| ej | how can i perge everything but lubuntu xfce..? | 09:37 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, what is your first language? perhaps find local help for you | 09:37 |
| anonymous_ | bangali | 09:38 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: your english is fine, so don't worry about that | 09:38 |

| anonymous_ | so let | 09:38 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, https://ubuntuwestbengal.wordpress.com/ | 09:39 |
| anonymous_ | so let's learn some command. thanks all you guys | 09:39 |
| ej | i dont need to keep my home on a diffrent partion do i? | 09:39 |
| ikonia | ej: don't need to no, | 09:40 |
| ikonia | it can be a good option for some people | 09:40 |
| ikonia | but it's your choice | 09:40 |
| cfhowlett | ej, no. it solves certain problems, but you can do without if you choose. | 09:40 |
| ej | why did they recomend that for my comp.. | 09:40 |
| ej | ill change.. | 09:40 |
| cfhowlett | ej, as I said, solves some problems, but not required. | 09:40 |
| ikonia | ej: it can be useful | 09:40 |
| ej | i only have 768 mem..1000gb hd.. | 09:41 |
| ej | runnning lubuntu over ubuntu .. | 09:41 |
| anonymous_ | is there any antivirus for ubuntu. that can clean my drives | 09:41 |
| cfhowlett | ej, "only" 1 TB ... you are sooooooo deprived. | 09:41 |
| cfhowlett | !antivirus | anonymous_ | 09:42 |
| ubottu | anonymous_: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 09:42 |
| ej | lol...im sry.. | 09:42 |
| ej | im learning | 09:42 |
| anonymous_ | yah. if send file to pendrive and if try to open in windows it's show that there is viruses | 09:43 |
| ej | great o.s i love lubuntu.. but i over loaded packages. | 09:43 |
| anonymous_ | that's why i want to use antivirus to clean my drives. | 09:43 |
| hateball | !info clamav | 09:43 |
| ubottu | clamav (source: clamav): anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line interface. In component main, is optional. Version 0.98.5+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.10.1 (utopic), package size 96 kB, installed size 725 kB | 09:43 |
| ej | whats the open source anti virus one? | 09:44 |
| ej | whats the name? | 09:44 |
| ej | ohh i see.. | 09:44 |
| anonymous_ | cfhowlett: i know virus can't active themselves i linux . but they can stay in my drives. am i write? | 09:45 |
| White_Cat | what would be a free/open source mail server for ubuntu? | 09:45 |
| johncarper | hello i accidently deleted the top and bot panel, how can i restore them, | 09:45 |
| agent_white | cfhowlett: Looks like they need to update that page... librenix.com is down (either for now or has been) | 09:45 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, 1. there ARE active linux viri ... rare though. 2. viri can live on your drives. 3. more likely you'll see viri from windows/osx than from linux. | 09:46 |
| ej | so how can a delete everthing but xfce lubuntu | 09:46 |
| anonymous_ | yes | 09:46 |
| cfhowlett | agent_white, yeah, it's about time. | 09:46 |
| agent_white | (speaking of the Ubuntu antivirus page linking to an explanation of how linux is hard to get a virus) | 09:46 |
| anonymous_ | is linux support ntfs file system drive | 09:47 |
| cfhowlett | ej, delete your install partition, reinstall lubuntu, then install xfce4 | 09:47 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, not natively. | 09:47 |
| cfhowlett | !ntfs | anonymous_ | 09:47 |
| ubottu | anonymous_: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 09:47 |
| === dan_ is now known as Guest51911 | ||
| agent_white | anonymous_: More importantly instead of seeking antivirus, you should look into how to properly configure iptables. | 09:48 |
| ej | would it be "purge" lubuntu | 09:48 |
| === Guest51911 is now known as Nhiix | ||
| anonymous_ | in windows i saw that if a file is large, like a ISO and it's size is bigger then 6GB. then fat32 filesystem can't get it. or windows can't send it to that pendrive | 09:49 |
| ej | or should i just dl a new iso | 09:49 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: linux file systems can deal with that just fine | 09:49 |
| anonymous_ | ohh that good. | 09:49 |
| anonymous_ | agent_white: how can learn that ? | 09:49 |
| agent_white | anonymous_: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-firewall-using-iptables-on-ubuntu-14-04 | 09:50 |
| agent_white | anonymous_: That is a good introduction | 09:50 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: step back, I think you are running too fast | 09:50 |
| samgoody | Ehlo all. I have a service (Wowza) running on Ubuntu server. | 09:50 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: take some time and just use your desktop, https://help.ubuntu.com will help you with the basics | 09:50 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: once you can use your desktop on a normal basis you can start doing more advanced things | 09:50 |
| samgoody | It came with scripts to symlink into /etc/init.d and /etc/rc2.d/, and which allow me to run sudo service wowza status, and which make it start at boot. | 09:50 |
| anonymous_ | ikonia: hmm | 09:51 |
| samgoody | Since upgrading to trusty, the "service" command still works, but it now longer starts on boot. | 09:51 |
| samgoody | After googling and asking on Linode, I gather that Ubuntu now uses Startup, and that /etc/init.d is no longer the place to be. | 09:51 |
| agent_white | anonymous_: Before looking at my article I posted, listen to ikonia. | 09:51 |
| ikonia | samgoody: it uses upstart | 09:51 |
| anonymous_ | but is it very advance thing to learn about iptables | 09:51 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: it's reasonably advanced | 09:51 |
| agent_white | anonymous_: Kinda-sorta. | 09:51 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, www.fullcirclemagazine.org download issue #0. read. front to back, every page. THEN get #1. repeat. I guarantee by the time you get to Issue #92, you'll have forgotten more than most linux users ever know. | 09:51 |
| samgoody | Oops, I meant upstart. But I need help figuring out what to do and how to get it it to boot on startup again. | 09:51 |
| agent_white | As ikonia said, get familiar with your environment first. | 09:51 |
| anonymous_ | hmm i understand | 09:52 |
| anonymous_ | agent_white: do you know about .net going to open source | 09:53 |
| === daan_ is now known as aquateex | ||
| agent_white | anonymous_: Yes but that's it. I know nothing of C# or .NET | 09:54 |
| anonymous_ | ohh | 09:54 |
| anonymous_ | it's ok | 09:54 |
| samgoody | So, if I symlink the file in /etc/init.d into /etc/init | 09:55 |
| anonymous_ | agent_white : i want to install vmware . and also want to get it as a .deb file. how can i get it like that | 09:55 |
| samgoody | Will that break anything? Will that work? Am I totally off base? Does Ubuntu no longer support start-on-boot for less than the most sophisticated users? | 09:55 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: you can't | 09:56 |
| EriC^^ | samgoody: try update-rc.d -f <program> disable | 09:56 |
| EriC^^ | samgoody: i mean enable | 09:56 |
| ikonia | anonymous_: again, slowly, get to grips with the basics first | 09:56 |

| samgoody | That looks fantastic | 09:58 |

| EriC^^ | ok | 09:59 |
| cfhowlett | anonymous_, updates are generally good things, especially security updates. ignoring them is your choice. | 09:59 |
| samgoody | Now, for the next question. I have a different service, openfire. It has a startup script call openfire.sh, that I run to make the thing go. | 10:00 |
| samgoody | They suggest symlinking that startup script into /etc/init.d in order to be able to use "$ sudo service openfire start" | 10:00 |

| jadesoturi | hi all.. im in a process of purchasing a new server, and HP recommends me to purchase a HP smart cache system, witch caches the most accessed files from the RAID array to the OS SSD,, but im wondering if there maybe is a free utility that could do that instead? the server will be running a raid6 array with 2 120gb ssds in raid 1 as OS drives.. | 10:09 |
| jatt | ekarlso-: unofficially you can install up to 3.18 on trusty | 10:09 |
| ej | ubotto: ty | 10:09 |
| ej | all: ty | 10:09 |
| ej | purexfce i like! | 10:09 |
| jadesoturi | iv read that i can setup LVM with 1 volume group that has both the raid array lv and the ssd lv in it, but will it give me the same performance as if i was using hp smartcache? | 10:09 |
| ekarlso- | jatt: any backports or so that works or is it the mainline thing u mean ? | 10:09 |
| ej | cool.. good day. | 10:10 |

| lotuspsychje | jadesoturi: wich brand of ssd will you choose? | 10:10 |
| jatt | yes this ones: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 10:10 |
| jatt | but only use if absolutely required (for example if you are sure they fix some bug you are being hit) | 10:10 |
| jatt | not sure which version the official repos support I think is 3.13 | 10:11 |
| jadesoturi | HP 120GB 6G SATA Value Endurance SFF 2.5-in SC Enterprise Value 3 | 10:11 |
| jadesoturi | is the drives im getting.. | 10:11 |
| jadesoturi | its a rack server proliant dl380p gen 8 25sff chassie | 10:11 |
| jadesoturi | not sure who makes the ssds there.. | 10:11 |
| jadesoturi | gonna run ubuntu 14.04 on it, no vmware.. will be hosting a php/mysql webapp... | 10:12 |
| ej | ohh.. also any reason i cant install xbuntu after dl. and burn but ubuntu will install ive tryed three diff. .xubunt.iso's | 10:12 |
| lotuspsychje | jadesoturi: performance is also based on the brand of ssd's you buy, for what i hear samsung evo 850 are the best, and almost unbrakeable | 10:12 |
| ikonia | jadesoturi: are you sure it's not the hardware raid smart cache controller | 10:12 |
| ikonia | that has the battery backup ? | 10:12 |
| ikonia | or is it actually the SSD caching bays | 10:12 |
| jatt | ej: if you install ubuntu, to trim it down to use xfce is a pain in the neck. so better install xubuntu from the start | 10:13 |
| jadesoturi | ikonia, not sure.. from what i understand, the raid will be done by hardware raid.. | 10:13 |
| k1l | ej: check md5sums | 10:13 |
| ikonia | jadesoturi: right, which is why I'm asking | 10:13 |
| cfhowlett | ej, OR you could install virtualbox and test all the .iso's you want without reinstalling your main system ... | 10:13 |
| ej | jatt: three diff. xubuntu.iso ive tryed wont install but one trusty tar willl | 10:13 |
| k1l | ej: there shouldnt be a difference in the installer from ubuntu and xubuntu | 10:13 |
| jadesoturi | ok.. does it matter much? from waht i understand hardware raid is better if the raid controller is a good one.. (witch this is supposted to be).. | 10:14 |
| ej | okk. .. its settled.. | 10:15 |
| ej | thanks... again. | 10:15 |
| lotuspsychje | jadesoturi: you can ask this to the ##hardware guys aswell | 10:15 |

| jatt | in that case you need a dhcp server, and installing one of the server packages listed in | 11:33 |
| jatt | apt-cache search dhcpd | 11:33 |
| jatt | should be required | 11:33 |
| daviiiddddddd | ok | 11:34 |
| daviiiddddddd | thnks | 11:34 |
| daviiiddddddd | im trying to do it | 11:34 |
| daviiiddddddd | keeps empty | 11:35 |
| daviiiddddddd | i dont understand it | 11:35 |
| jatt | you can use apt-file to check if a package contains a given file, for example: | 11:37 |
| jatt | $ apt-file list isc-dhcp-server | grep dhcpd.conf | 11:37 |
| jatt | isc-dhcp-server: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf | 11:37 |
| jatt | if you have your server installed but still no configuration file, you can try to reconfigure the package | 11:37 |
| jatt | dpkg --reconfigure <package> | 11:37 |

| lb1a | how to contact a maintainer of the official ubuntu mirrors in germany? i found a list and could match the ip adresses to one mirror but i could not get any contact information | 12:03 |
| and0r | why do you want to contact him? | 12:05 |

| and0r | ok, but why do you really want to contact him? | 12:06 |
| lb1a | and0r, ^^ we get errors about hash mismatches and different release.gpg files on a nearly daily basis | 12:06 |
| and0r | who is "we"? | 12:07 |
| lb1a | our company | 12:07 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest22018 | ||
| lb1a | we host several ubunutu servers | 12:07 |
| and0r | and why dont you think this is not a local issue? | 12:07 |
| and0r | regarding network/internet | 12:07 |
| cfhowlett | lb1a, fast (admittedly not optimal) workaround is to point to the main repos at least in the short term. mismatches generally sort themselves over time ... | 12:08 |
| lb1a | because i did a "host de.archive.ubuntu.com" and wget the release.gpg file from every ip listed directly and they were different. and our servers run apt-get update through apticron on a daily basis and i get spammed by hash mismatches on a daily basis. | 12:09 |
| lb1a | i just wanted the maintainer to know about the issue. | 12:10 |
| lb1a | cfhowlett, thanks i considered switching to another mirror that is mentioned in the mirrors list (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors) this should be possible, am i right? | 12:11 |
| cfhowlett | lb1a, sure. switching mirrors is easy. software center / settings / software sources | 12:12 |
| and0r | lb1a, i seriously doubt it's the mirror | 12:12 |
| cfhowlett | doh! you're on a server. same process, just not so gui pretty | 12:12 |
| lb1a | cfhowlett, yeah i'm talking about ubuntu server, so i use the cli instead ;) | 12:12 |
| lb1a | and0r, what then? | 12:13 |
| and0r | lb1a, join #windows so i can help you better.. it's the chat room where my attention is focused | 12:13 |
| cfhowlett | lb1a, mirrors are weird. I followed the "closest is best" rule, but that's definitely not tre. | 12:13 |
| and0r | give me address or IP of mirror | 12:14 |
| lb1a | and0r, not necessary. it's not that important. it's just annoying and i wanted to notify the maintainer. i'm used to report things i consider "bugs" ;) | 12:14 |

| rosseta1 | Hi. My 1TB Hard disk is mounted on / and I recently added a new 500G hard disk which is mounted on /home/backup_hd. I know I'm wrong, but by stupid brain tells me that if I'll put some data on my 1TB hard disk, it will also be added to the 500G, becuase / and /home/backup_hd intersect in terms of directory heirarchy | 13:06 |
| ararob | rosseta1:not unless you put it in /home/backup_hd | 13:10 |
| === erikj- is now known as erikj | ||
| rosseta1 | So If I'll add some data to /home/backup_hd it will also be added to the 1TB hard disk which is mounted on / ? | 13:11 |
| rbnielsen | No | 13:11 |
| rosseta1 | Oh, that's great. Can you please elaborate briefly on why not? | 13:11 |
| ararob | "/home/backup_hd" is a seperate HD | 13:11 |
| rbnielsen | /home/backup_hd is mounted on the 500GB drive. | 13:11 |
| rosseta1 | So the OS knows that and therefore sends data only to a specific hard disk, based on the location it is mounted at. | 13:12 |
| and0r | why would two different paths overlap? GET REAL DUDE | 13:12 |
| rosseta1 | I mean, /home/backup_hd is a leaf in / | 13:13 |
| rosseta1 | So i thought it might cause a problem, but thinking again - everything is under / :-) | 13:13 |
| rosseta1 | I just don't know the mechanism behind mv'ing data from and to different disks. | 13:14 |
| ararob | rosseta1: /home/backup_hd is just a descriptor that sits on / and points to the 500G drive, that's just it | 13:14 |
| rosseta1 | Got it :-) | 13:14 |
| rbnielsen | In terms of folder hierachy, /home/backup_hd is a subfolder within /, yes. But since /home/bachup_hd is mounted to the 500GB, it will only point to that drive. | 13:14 |
| rbnielsen | So whatever is located inside /home/backup_hd will be on the 500GB drive. | 13:15 |
| rosseta1 | rbnielsen:And not on the 1TB, correct ? | 13:15 |
| rbnielsen | Whereas everything else in / is on the 1TB drive | 13:15 |
| e-cruiser | ecruiser | 13:15 |
| rbnielsen | Yes. | 13:15 |
| rosseta1 | That's great guys, thank you for making the subject clearer for me. | 13:16 |

| davividal | hi. I'm trying to install pgadmin3 without dependencies using apt-get. I already installed the dependencies using a PPA, but it's a newer version (3.0.2 instead of 3.0.0). Is there anything I could do? | 13:23 |
| ThePendulum | Hey. I'm running Ubuntu 12.10 on a NAS, and I'm trying to install Apache. However, whenever I try to install anything with apt-get, it 404s all over the place. Any idea how to fix the repositories via the terminal? | 13:24 |
| DJones | ThePendulum: 12.10 is eol so the repo's will have been removed | 13:24 |
| cfhowlett | !12.10 ThePendulu| m, time to upgrade | 13:24 |
| k1l | !eol | ThePendulum | 13:25 |
| ubottu | ThePendulum: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 13:25 |
| k1l | ThePendulum: you should have choosen 12.04 since its a LTS. | 13:25 |
| ThePendulum | DJones: Really? That seems a trifle harsh o_o | 13:25 |
| ThePendulum | Is there no way to use 12.04s repos on 12.10? | 13:25 |
| cfhowlett | ThePendulum, no SAFE way ... | 13:25 |
| ThePendulum | k1l: Well I didn't assume it would simply become unusable after the support period ended | 13:25 |
| k1l | ThePendulum: no. you did the wrong choice. you will just make it worse now. so update to 13.04 then 13.10 then 14.04 | 13:26 |
| cfhowlett | ThePendulum, 12.04 or 14.04 are both LTS. choose | 13:26 |
| ThePendulum | k1l: What's the point of updating to 13.04 and 13.10 first? | 13:26 |
| k1l | ThePendulum: unusable? you already have real big security issues on your machine | 13:26 |
| cfhowlett | ThePendulum, it's usable , just little things; no security. | 13:26 |
| k1l | ThePendulum: you need to make every release step. like i said: you did the wrong install. you should have chhosen 12.04 back then. there is even a 12.04 to 14.04 upgrade path since its LTS | 13:27 |
| cfhowlett | ThePendulum, suggest you clean install 14.04 but if you want to upgrade in place = 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 > 14.04 | 13:27 |
| k1l | ThePendulum: you remember shellshock etc? you dont have fixes for that on your machine. so upgrade asap | 13:27 |
| ThePendulum | k1l: It's a low-priority machine as it's primarily an HTPC, never really looked after it | 13:28 |
| k1l | so in general: if you dont want to upgrade for years: use LTS and stay on LTS. if you can upgrade all 6 months you can use all realeases | 13:29 |
| cfhowlett | ThePendulum, so ... doesn't matter if it's breached, right? | 13:29 |
| k1l | *releases | 13:29 |
| k1l | !eolupgrades | ThePendulum that is your update path then | 13:29 |
| ubottu | ThePendulum that is your update path then: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 13:29 |

| flow | I don't get these in this chanel only this pastebin | 16:25 |
| mink | Does anyone know can I find source from demo.jujucharms.com somewhere? | 16:25 |
| cfhowlett | mink, check their website? not a canonical/ubuntu product | 16:26 |
| daftykins | flow: so apparently yeah, 2.3GB of your usage is buffer/cache - nothing to worry about | 16:27 |
| mink | cfhowlett, that is already on github... | 16:27 |
| OerHeks | mink, i think you must search launchpad https://launchpad.net/charms | 16:28 |
| daftykins | flow: although it seems you have no swap, which isn't good as your system will just slow down when the RAM usage is high | 16:28 |
| cfhowlett | mink, true! I was wrong! sorry. | 16:28 |
| flow | damn it. I did the disk partitioning myself to put the home directory on a different partition | 16:28 |
| daftykins | and forgot a swap? oh dear. | 16:28 |
| daftykins | -10 points | 16:29 |
| flow | no I am pretty sure I did swap | 16:29 |
| flow | but when I start up it normally says it can't encrypt swap or something like that but by the way it has started up I have other stuff in mind | 16:29 |
| daftykins | your free -m output disagrees :) | 16:29 |
| flow | what can I do now? | 16:29 |
| daftykins | regarding what? | 16:29 |
| flow | daftykins, I think I have the partition because I remember googeling how big the swap should be | 16:30 |
| flow | daftykins, tell my ubuntu to use the swap partition | 16:30 |
| daftykins | *shrug* you mentioned encryption so that's me out. | 16:30 |
| flow | damn it | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | flow, please keep your language in this channnel family friendly, thanks. | 16:32 |
| flow | OerHeks, sorry, didn't know that that is bad language already | 16:33 |
| olorin12 | Hi all. I just installed 14.10. When I go to the Software Centre, the 'For Purchase' category has nothing in it. Also, when I search for Steam, it does not have the 'install' button, and says that Steam isn't found in my software sources. Any ideas? | 16:34 |
| flow | Ok I have a 3,5GB Swap partition. Apparently, my ubuntu doesn't use that. Can anyone tell me what I should do now? | 16:34 |
| bubbasaures | olorin12, Have you run a update? | 16:35 |
| olorin12 | yes | 16:35 |

| ash` | -.- | 16:36 |
| anonymous_ | ok thanks | 16:36 |
| olorin12 | they are, and Chuck Norris, are you saying I should type aptitude search steam in terminal? | 16:37 |
| daftykins | you should be using apt-get, not aptitude | 16:37 |
| Chuck_Norris | olorin12: yes, to see if you can install it from apt | 16:37 |
| olorin12 | sudo apt-get search steam E: Invalid operation search | 16:38 |
| mink | olorin12, apt-cache search steam | 16:38 |
| OerHeks | olorin12, go into softwarecenter > edit > sources, and enable multiverse repo and reload again | 16:38 |
| daftykins | sudo apt-get update && apt-cache search <thing to search for> | 16:38 |
| olorin12 | that found it | 16:38 |
| olorin12 | ok brb | 16:38 |

| olorin12 | multiverse was already enabled. I disabled and re-enabled it, then searched again. Still no 'For Purchase' apps, and Steam is not able to be installed | 16:40 |

| daftykins | if we're talking about the distro. | 16:43 |

| daftykins | TuttiePutty: try an actual question. | 16:44 |
| grar | How do I make rhythmbox use my GTK+ theme? It's currently using what I assume is the default look. I didn't see anything about theming in the plugins or preferences. I'm on Xubuntu 14.04. I have clearlooks-phenix installed which includes the original clearlooks and the appropriate theming engines. | 16:44 |
| Chuck_Norris | olorin12: lsb_release -d | 16:45 |
| daftykins | e88: if you installed the package that has the google earth builder, you have to run it first | 16:45 |
| olorin12 | 14.10 | 16:45 |
| Chuck_Norris | doh! nvm | 16:45 |
| e88 | daftykins: no, i simply did what the website said and installed (tried) the deb from the website | 16:45 |
| ej | were would i find help compling akernal for this driver alsamixer i dont feal comfortable going any futher with this.. know issue for my laptop. | 16:46 |
| daftykins | what deb? googles? yeah that's not going to work | 16:46 |

| e88 | daftykins: so i'm out of luck with getting hte google earth to work under ubuntu 14.10 ? | 16:46 |
| daftykins | e88: no you just need to actually research how ;) one sec. | 16:47 |
| olorin12 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9541913/ | 16:48 |
| e88 | daftykins: you were right. hit it first thign on google | 16:48 |
| daftykins | e88: googleearth-package is a decent method too | 16:48 |
| ej | were would i find help compling akernal for this driver alsamixer i dont feal comfortable going any futher with this.. know issue for my laptop. | 16:51 |
| sgs | trying to get steam to work? | 16:52 |
| daftykins | ej: alsamixer isn't a driver. | 16:52 |
| olorin12 | alsamixer is an application that helps you control alsa | 16:53 |
| ej | i need the control mixer for alsa.. | 16:53 |
| daftykins | olorin12: what happens when you close that program, then run a terminal and type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install steam:i386" | 16:53 |
| daftykins | ej: so install it. it has nothing to do with compiling a kernel | 16:53 |
| olorin12 | uno momentito | 16:54 |
| TuttiePutty | its were you make alsa cackes? | 16:54 |
| ej | daftykins, can u take alook at this post first please? | 16:54 |

| Marc____ | Hi folks. I have a Ubuntu 14.04 drive that refuses to boot. I would like to find the Desktop directory on it. I've booted with a Live CD. The drive's /home/ dir is empty. | 17:07 |
| Marc____ | Any ideas? | 17:07 |
| EriC^^ | Marc____: sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 | 17:08 |
| EriC^^ | paste the link here | 17:08 |
| Marc____ | EriC^^: http://termbin.com/7s9j | 17:09 |
| teward | Marc____: was /home on its own partition? | 17:09 |
| Marc____ | teward: I recall messing with that, trying to move it to another drive, but can't remember where I got to with the project (not main PC) | 17:10 |
| EriC^^ | Marc____: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt | 17:10 |
| === sixwheeledbeast1 is now known as sixwheeledbeast | ||
| Marc____ | EriC^^: The drive is mounted | 17:10 |

| Marc____ | EriC^^: I see the whole boot drive | 17:12 |
| Marc____ | with an empty home dir | 17:12 |
| EriC^^ | Marc____: sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/home | 17:12 |
| EriC^^ | Marc____: why isn't it booting anymore? | 17:12 |
| EriC^^ | you can reinstall grub if you want | 17:12 |
| Marc____ | EriC^^: I see it now, thanks | 17:13 |
| Marc____ | EriC^^: The drive is 7 years old, bad sectors, etc, going to replace it. I got the 'trying to read/write outside hd0' error on boot. | 17:14 |
| ej | daftykins, how dare u say im confused this issue is all over linux.. ive spent hours going over this sh*t and u jump me like im im stupid... | 17:14 |
| daftykins | ej: i think you might want to calm down a little bit, you're taking this personally. | 17:14 |
| ej | i am! | 17:15 |
| Marc____ | EriC^^: So I can see the file in terminal, any idea how to mount it in the GUI? | 17:15 |
| kevdog | you should just visit this channel more regularly. Your problem with your drive -- everyone has had it! | 17:15 |
| ej | im heated! | 17:15 |
| daftykins | ej: take it elsewhere and come back when you're calm please. | 17:15 |
| ej | no offence plz. | 17:15 |
| EriC^^ | Marc____: you can navigate in nautilus to /mnt/home | 17:16 |
| kevdog | @Marc___ This is linux man -- the command line is king! | 17:16 |
| ej | ok .. | 17:16 |
| Hercules | can any of the ubuntu volunteers that can send me an live cd ? I cannot get an ISO because internet is too slow and I am of 13 years old, so can't get one ordered. | 17:16 |
| kevdog | Anyone know how to connect to freenode over SSL? | 17:17 |
| EriC^^ | Hercules: use a download manager | 17:17 |
| morty696 | hello | 17:18 |
| Marc____ | EriC^^: Thanks a bunch, saved the day. | 17:18 |
| morty696 | ive just install kubuntu and want to install all the kali linux tools on my system, is there a repository or script? | 17:19 |
| EriC^^ | Marc____: no problem | 17:19 |
| genii | Hercules: Your best option in this case is to use a torrenting program. It can stop and resume the download of the ISO and even if your internet is very slow, it will eventually get it. | 17:20 |
| morty696 | hello ive just install kubuntu and want to installed all the kali linux tools on my system, is there a repository or script? | 17:20 |
| morty696 | anyone? | 17:21 |
| Hercules | genii: then it will take months. | 17:21 |
| Hercules | 700 mb is aot. | 17:21 |
| Hercules | alot* | 17:22 |
| Hercules | for an 40 kbps dial-up modem. | 17:22 |
| squinty | Hercules: also there might be a LUG (Linux User Group) in your area. google for those words and the name of where you live. Most LUG's give out dvd's too (or will burn a copy for ya) | 17:22 |
| genii | Hercules: Probably more like 4-5 days instead of months. | 17:22 |
| genii | squinty: Not a bad idea. | 17:23 |
| OerHeks | morty696, we do not support, ask in the kali channels | 17:23 |
| Hercules | squinty: there is lug but its for only the people work in it. | 17:23 |
| OerHeks | !kali | 17:23 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 17:23 |
| Hercules | I tried to get one but they won't gave. | 17:24 |
| morty696 | well id like to know a pentesting or security repository for ubuntu? | 17:24 |
| genii | Hercules: You might also consider downloading it someplace where the connection is faster, like a Starbucks or dedicated cyber cafe | 17:24 |
| pbx | morty696, is there software you're looking for that's not in the main repos? | 17:25 |
| Hercules | In a location I live there is no things like that. | 17:25 |
| Hercules | Only Shared Cuber Cafe's are there and they have ugly speed. | 17:25 |
| Hercules | Cyber* | 17:25 |
| morty696 | yes all the pentesting tools that are in kali linux | 17:25 |
| kazdax | do you live in fiji ? | 17:25 |
| Hercules | no | 17:25 |
| Hercules | India. | 17:26 |
| kazdax | yea that was my secound guess | 17:26 |
| kazdax | the airtel internet is preety faster | 17:26 |
| kazdax | just go to a better cyber cafe | 17:26 |

| kazdax | yes | 17:26 |
| kazdax | where in India are you ? | 17:26 |
| pbx | morty696, you may get better leads from a security-oriented list of group | 17:26 |
| Hercules | I keep on travelling that's why I use dial-up connection. | 17:26 |
| Hercules | Vodafone is really stupid at it. | 17:27 |
| kazdax | ahh ..get one of those usb sticks | 17:27 |
| Hercules | kazdax: Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. | 17:27 |
| kazdax | docomo i think | 17:27 |
| Hercules | docomo doesn't works here. | 17:27 |
| genii | Hercules: If you go to the #ubuntu-in channel the bot indicates is the official channel for India, you may find someone local there who could either send you a DVD, or assist in some other way | 17:27 |
| morty696 | where do i find that? | 17:27 |
| kazdax | does he need an ubuntu CD ? | 17:27 |
| kazdax | DVD | 17:27 |
| Hercules | yeah. | 17:28 |
| Hercules | kazdax: You from ? | 17:28 |
| pbx | morty696, i'll leave the googling to you but e.g. comp.os.linux.security | 17:28 |
| pbx | morty696, also, check this out - https://github.com/madmantm/ubuntu-pentest-tools/blob/master/ubuntu-pentest-tools.sh | 17:28 |

| kazdax | well i dont live in punjab anymore | 17:29 |
| kazdax | i am in the states now | 17:29 |
| Hercules | oh | 17:29 |
| pbx | morty696, and http://www.backbox.org/ | 17:29 |
| kazdax | you can get the ubuntu dvd by purschaisng linux magazines | 17:29 |
| kazdax | where are quite wide spread in India | 17:29 |
| genii | Hercules: Canonical sends each local Ubuntu group physical copies of each new Long Term Support release. I'm sure the #ubuntu-in people can either send you one or arrange another way for you to receive one. | 17:29 |
| kazdax | yea i agree | 17:29 |
| kazdax | genii is right | 17:29 |
| kazdax | they will help you out there | 17:30 |
| Hercules | genii: They aren't active. | 17:30 |
| kazdax | dont you have a book store there ? | 17:30 |
| kazdax | go look for books on linux ...they have ubuntu dvd that comes with them | 17:30 |
| kazdax | those magazines cost like 2 dollars | 17:30 |
| genii | kazdax: This is one of the reasons they should have kept the Ship-It program going :( | 17:31 |
| kazdax | http://www.labnol.org/internet/ubuntu-in-india-get-free-ubuntu-cds-and-dvds/630/ | 17:33 |
| kazdax | apparenlty you can order ubuntu CD And they will ship it for free of charge | 17:33 |
| kazdax | yea they dont still do that genii ?? | 17:33 |
| kazdax | Intel for example .. sends abot 6 to 8 books in a huge box..to anyone interested..free of charge | 17:34 |
| daftykins | kazdax: interested in what? | 17:35 |
| genii | kazdax: I'm not sure when that article was written. AFAIK Ship-It is finished except to LoCos | 17:35 |
| === leffelad_ is now known as leffelad | ||
| kazdax | the intel manuals ..about there processors and the instruction set | 17:35 |
| genii | Hercules: Another alternative is to be active in your local Ubuntu group, find out who the old contacts were, etcetera, where the DVDs were being sent before, if it can be changed to another address where people are active instead. | 17:38 |

| daftykins | no_gravity: scp can push and pull files over a link, pretty simple stuff but the command syntax can be a challenge for new users | 18:35 |
| daftykins | scp foo user@host:/path/to/put/foo | 18:35 |
| no_gravity | good luck guessing the path on the remote machine... | 18:35 |
| daftykins | no_gravity: so SSH in and do a 'pull' instead. | 18:36 |
| daftykins | scp user@host@/path/to/foo . | 18:37 |
| daftykins | oops | 18:37 |
| daftykins | scp user@host:/path/to/foo . | 18:37 |
| * EriC^^ bets no_gravity 's going to complain about guessing the path on the local machine | 18:37 | |
| daftykins | :D | 18:37 |
| no_gravity | what i do is "echo $PWD" on the remote machine and c&p it. | 18:38 |
| daftykins | that's horrible | 18:38 |
| daftykins | also, why not just "pwd" alone? | 18:38 |
| no_gravity | oh, didnt know pwd | 18:39 |

| waressearcher2 | frankly.pitas.com that web page generates dialog box with random text and button "OK", I press "OK" but it opens another one and I can't close it or access web browser, is there any way to get rid of it without killing web browser ? | 18:47 |

| morty696 | can someone help im after a security/pentesting repository for ubuntu, thats all | 18:47 |
| daftykins | morty696: no, go to the channels you were told to find earlier. | 18:47 |
| morty696 | what channels? | 18:48 |
| daftykins | morty696: ones relating to kali, perhaps | 18:48 |
| morty696 | i tried adding the kali repository but half of the programs have dependency problems | 18:50 |
| teward | !kali | 18:50 |
| teward | boo | 18:50 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 18:50 |
| Nessuno | how is it possible? | 18:50 |
| daftykins | morty696: that's because you can't mix distros. now as i said, go install kali if you want to use it :) | 18:51 |
| teward | morty696: if you're having issues with a Kali program or their repos, take it to their support channel. | 18:51 |
| teward | Nessuno: I believe it was removed because it kept getting updated, but I can go digging in the repos | 18:51 |
| morty696 | i have kali installed in another vmware machine | 18:51 |

| Nessuno | in the last year happened so much strange events | 18:53 |
| teward | morty696: you can't mix distros. Install Kali and then put KDE on if they have it | 18:53 |

| morty696 | i dont get it, ubuntu/kubuntu are such popular systems, why is there not a security/pentesting repo for it? | 18:54 |
| daftykins | morty696: maybe you just haven't looked for one. | 18:55 |
| skift | the dirver for windows is here. http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth/update.php | 18:55 |
| morty696 | i have, cant find one anywhere | 18:55 |
| morty696 | i trying to find a straight forward list of kali apps but i cant find that either | 18:55 |
| skift | but i cant seem to get it to work in ubuntu. when i type 'lsusb' it just shows as 'dynex' | 18:55 |
| daftykins | morty696: for the last time. join #kali-linux and go and ask them. | 18:56 |
| morty696 | ok | 18:56 |
| OerHeks | morty696, ask in their channel about the kali repos, i am sure they exist. | 18:56 |
| morty696 | they do exist, but half the programs wont install because of dependency issues | 18:56 |
| fedorafan | hey, how to get the workingpath of pwd as substring, like "cp pwd/whatever ." | 18:57 |
| k1l_ | fedorafan: ./whatever | 18:57 |
| EriC^^ | fedorafan: cp $(pwd)/whatever | 18:57 |
| OerHeks | morty696, that is why we send you there, we don't have influence on them. | 18:57 |
| fedorafan | cool 2 ways, the pointvariant didnt think about it k1l_ thx, EriC^^ yeah that was what I searched for, thx | 18:57 |
| k1l_ | morty696: the depencies issues are not caused by the ubuntu side. its caused by the kali side. so talk to them to fix that. we cant do anything there. (we cant make ubuntu be nice to all the different wallbuntus) | 18:58 |
| cwert | It appears that the mod_imagemap Apache module was removed in Trusty. It used to be included with the apache-2.2-bin package (mod_imagemap.so) in earlier Ubuntu releases. How can I tell why it was dropped? (was it intentional for a specific reason, or was it overlooked) It is still listed on the Apache site as an available module. | 18:59 |
| Guest44906 | hello | 19:02 |
| daftykins | Guest44906: hi, got a question? | 19:03 |
| daftykins | !find mod_imagemap | 19:03 |

| teward | cwert: have you tried enabling the module, though? (I can't find where it was 'removed')... | 19:05 |
| Guest44906 | you have been answered daftykins | 19:05 |
| daftykins | Guest44906: ah so nonsense is your game, goodbye then | 19:05 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: you can't go higher than the native resolution. | 19:06 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: duh :P I know that - I have an ASUS monitor who's native resolution is 2560x1440 but is limited @ 1080P | 19:07 |
| === ra21vi_ is now known as ra21vi | ||
| cwert | The a2enmod man page ironically uses imagemap as the example for how to enable a module. (which is I assume why people are pointing to apache2-doc) But the module itself no longer exists as far as I can tell. I’ve tried enabling it, and I’ve searched packages.ubuntu.com. | 19:08 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: ok well that's the detail your question was lacking! does it not have any better input types? what's your graphics card and driver? | 19:09 |

| CalebW | Hello, I'm trying to compile something and I keep getting "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXinerima", but I have libxinerama-dev installed. | 19:11 |
| daftykins | fedorafan: yeah, since otherwise you can't read the file to write it into an archive | 19:11 |
| IPPhoneGuy | GeForce GTX 780 Ti - 2 monitors - 1 displayport - 1 hdmi (monitors are identical) - running the latest binaries from nvidia on 14.04 which would be 331.113 | 19:12 |
| fedorafan | ahhh brillant, its totally logical, thx daftykins | 19:12 |
| daftykins | CalebW: xinerama is not the same as xinerima ? | 19:12 |
| CalebW | Yup just noticed that myself right now. Feel like a dork. | 19:12 |

| noobix | i am installing ubuntu from mini.iso .... what is the difference between "UBUNTU DESKTOP" and "UBUNTU GNOME DESKTOP"? it comes up in choosing packages to install | 19:15 |
| daftykins | pocc: test failed, you used a support channel. | 19:16 |
| daftykins | noobix: non-unity, if in doubt don't pick it | 19:16 |
| bekks | noobix: The former is Ubuntu using Unity, the latter is Ubuntu using Gnome. | 19:16 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9543072/ | 19:16 |
| k1l_ | noobix: gnome desktop means gnome shell (gnome3) | 19:16 |

| bekks | n3vtelen: And why are the lights themselves are important to you? | 19:20 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: yeah, check nvidia-settings and that it doesn't need to be dropped to a sub-60Hz refresh to use 2560x1440 over HDMI | 19:20 |
| n3vtelen | my internet and connection gone | 19:21 |
| n3vtelen | :| | 19:21 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: lines 200-208 seem relevant, one selected a 165MHz pixel clock | 19:21 |
| n3vtelen | when this thing happens | 19:21 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: as per wikipedia (a fine source of course :P) "The maximum pixel clock rate for HDMI 1.0 was 165 MHz, which was sufficient to allow 1080p and WUXGA (1920×1200) at 60 Hz." | 19:22 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: the odd thing is that it worked in windows without an issue - I just have a hard time believing its anything other than something configuration related | 19:23 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: go check if it runs a lower refresh to drive that res over HDMI | 19:23 |

| lukasz | Oh | 19:40 |
| daftykins | HellMind: you didn't ask a question, you made a STATEMENT. | 19:40 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: i think i'd ditch v331 and try a newer driver from nvidia direct (though it's not usually advisable to go non-repo) | 19:40 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy are you getting correct modes from the monitor? | 19:40 |
| HellMind | When I use pptp client it adds a route "190.210.182.172 dev lo scope link src 192.168.0.1" where pptp adds that rule, there must be a way to cancel that order, Do you know it? | 19:40 |
| daftykins | lukasz: it's all in the above Xorg log :P | 19:41 |
| daftykins | HellMind: use network-manager to specify the PPTP link and then tell it to remove the default route in settings, perhaps | 19:41 |

| championofcyrodi | i posted my issue here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2257071&p=13188639#post13188639 | 19:52 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, this is why Apple shoves DisplayPort into their MacBooks instead of HDMI | 19:52 |
| lukasz | Lastly, I have seen Windows 7 running on MBP driving 1440p over HDMI ... but you cannot do the same in OSX :P | 19:52 |
| ProWilly35 | Salut les gens comme ils sont :D | 19:52 |
| daftykins | lukasz: mmm, i think there might be an nvidia driver / kernel issue with detecting HDMI screens that are capable of greater than single link operation, if i'm reading that Xorg log right | 19:52 |
| championofcyrodi | hdmi doesnt have bandwidth to support resolutions higher than 1080p | 19:53 |
| championofcyrodi | you need display port for higher res. | 19:53 |
| hannolom | Hi does anybody have experiance with installing Ubuntu server on a HP proliant DL380 gen3 or 4? | 19:53 |
| championofcyrodi | or dual link dvi | 19:53 |
| championofcyrodi | hannolom: yes | 19:53 |
| lukasz | daftykins, you need dual link to go beyond 1080p ... so thats the issue | 19:53 |
| daftykins | lukasz: yeah but i'm not 100% if that is indeed the failing, since there are so many labelling changes in outputs in the Xorg log, makes it a pain to read | 19:54 |
| championofcyrodi | i'm running on an HP proliant dl380 but its a 7th gen | 19:54 |
| IPPhoneGuy | lukasz: uggh - wish this card had 2x displayport instead of 1 | 19:54 |
| daftykins | hannolom: might be better to just ask the specific question | 19:54 |
| lukasz | daftykins, I had this issue with one of my devs - he demanded a 1440p display for all his NetBeans on his Mac, he got it and it would not go beyond 1080p over HDMI, we got him a DisplayPort cable and the issue went away | 19:54 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, yeah, but I seriously think you should try the dual-link DVI cable idea | 19:55 |
| === daklan_ is now known as daklan | ||
| IPPhoneGuy | lukasz: yah i just hate to have to buy a cable because linux cant do that | 19:55 |
| championofcyrodi | lukasz is right, dual-link DVI will support higher than 1080p | 19:55 |
| hannolom_ | sorry i'm back | 19:55 |
| daftykins | lukasz: mmm, all that does is says OS X has issues too though :D | 19:55 |
| daftykins | i think you guys are missing the point here. it *should* work because both HDMI 1.3+ and Dual-link DVI use TMDS signalling | 19:56 |
| daftykins | so it's the negotiation that goes wrong | 19:56 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: i still say try the HDMI screen on its' own, then update driver if not | 19:56 |
| hannolom_ | I am in need or advice on ubuntu server install on a gen3 or 4 Proliant server | 19:57 |
| lukasz | daftykins, I thought yo need 1.4 to do 1080p+ | 19:57 |
| IPPhoneGuy | sorry daftykins: if I try just HDMI it stays at 1080p | 19:57 |
| bekks | hannolom_: So whats not working? | 19:57 |
| === timvishet is now known as timvisher | ||
| daftykins | hannolom_: so ask? | 19:57 |
| hannolom_ | I Started installing Servet 14.04 on the gen 4, but GUI not working | 19:58 |
| daftykins | lukasz: assuming wikipedia isn't lying - "HDMI 1.3 increased that to 340 MHz, which allows for higher resolution (such as WQXGA, 2560×1600) across a single digital link." | 19:58 |
| Pici | hannolom_: 14.04 server has no gui. | 19:58 |
| bekks | hannolom_: Ubuntu server does not have a gui. | 19:58 |
| === Darknet- is now known as Darknet | ||
| Pici | none of the server installs do. | 19:58 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, can you paste the screenshot of nvidia-settings, specifically GPU 0 > DFP-1 and GPU 0 > DFP-4 pages please. | 19:58 |
| hannolom_ | then I tried 12.04 on a gen 3 - but installing Ubuntu-desktop seems impossable | 19:58 |
| narthur | Any idea why an Ubuntu boot disk wouldn't boot on a Mac? All I'm getting is "i8042: No controller found" | 19:59 |
| bekks | hannolom_: Ubuntu server has no gui - so could you please clarify what you are doing exactly? | 19:59 |
| captine | nardev, are you using the mac edition? There is a specific iso, if I recall, for mac | 20:00 |
| OerHeks | hannolom_, you need to install hp pack http://www.gpaterno.com/2013/02/14/hp-proliant-support-pack-now-management-component-pack-for-ubuntu/ this is for precise 12.04 | 20:00 |
| hannolom_ | I'm installing server and Ubuntu-desktop for GUI | 20:00 |
| mefistofeles | hey, btw, would you happen to know if ubuntu/debian has some kind of limit respect memory consumption? I'm getting Operating System Error: Cannot allocate memory in ubuntu but I'm not getting this with ArchLinux... any ideas? (it's my own code) | 20:00 |
| mefistofeles | it uses a lot of RAM, of course | 20:00 |
| captine | narthur, I am running 14.04 on my mac and used the | 20:00 |
| daftykins | mefistofeles: maybe your install has no swap? | 20:00 |
| lukasz | daftykins, I will take Wikis word for it. Youre most likely right. Reading his logs it looks like DFP-1 which is the HDMI is doing only 165 MHz pixel clock over Single Link so that would be that. | 20:00 |
| === tcpman is now known as Guest49280 | ||
| mefistofeles | daftykins: actually my arch has no swap xD ubuntu does | 20:00 |
| daftykins | lukasz: *nod* that was my take too | 20:00 |
| daftykins | mefistofeles: ah well. | 20:01 |
| mefistofeles | daftykins: that's not the problem since it's not swapping | 20:01 |
| narthur | captine: Haven't been able to find the mac edition. Where's the best place to look for that? | 20:01 |
| ben_g | hi | 20:01 |
| hannolom_ | Cool - will give that a try - Thanks | 20:01 |
| mefistofeles | daftykins: same happens with debian | 20:02 |
| ben_g | The sound trough my headphone is so soft it's barely hearable, while all volume settings are set to the maximum. | 20:02 |
| IPPhoneGuy | uploading pics | 20:02 |
| ben_g | What could be the problem with that? | 20:02 |
| IPPhoneGuy | http://imgur.com/38kKhIH,YO3j799 | 20:02 |
| IPPhoneGuy | there you go daftykins and lukasz | 20:02 |
| Blaberus | . | 20:03 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: yep confirms it, single link TMDS over the HDMI = it thinks it can't do higher | 20:03 |
| IPPhoneGuy | meaning what? | 20:04 |
| daftykins | wow you mean you don't grasp it even after this entire convo? :) | 20:04 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, how old is your HDMI card | 20:04 |
| ben_g | I'm pretty sure something software-related must be wrong, since it worked just fine yesterday | 20:04 |
| IPPhoneGuy | lukasz: it's relatively new, it's a GTX780 | 20:04 |
| daftykins | lukasz: the GTX 780Ti is quite new :> | 20:04 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, this is telling you the link between your PC and the display does not have the bandwidth | 20:05 |
| IPPhoneGuy | pretty high end card :P | 20:05 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, err I meant CORD not CARD :P | 20:05 |
| IPPhoneGuy | oh | 20:05 |
| IPPhoneGuy | cord came with the monitor :P | 20:05 |
| lukasz | daftykins, yeah I meant to type in cord. the card is certainly new enough. | 20:05 |
| IPPhoneGuy | I can try another but it worked in windows :P | 20:05 |
| IPPhoneGuy | lol | 20:05 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, ok that should be new enough | 20:05 |
| lukasz | Yeah thats a good point | 20:05 |
| daftykins | aaaah :D | 20:05 |
| lukasz | This may be a driver limitation actually | 20:05 |
| daftykins | so update the driver already! | 20:06 |
| * daftykins gets impatient ;) | 20:06 | |
| IPPhoneGuy | lol I know | 20:06 |
| IPPhoneGuy | I just hate to go outside of the repo | 20:06 |
| championofcyrodi | hannolom: i had problems w/ ubuntu desktop as well... | 20:06 |
| IPPhoneGuy | trying to be a good boy | 20:06 |
| championofcyrodi | i started w/ a server edition install... | 20:06 |
| championofcyrodi | then used apt to install the desktop packages afterwards | 20:06 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: yeah it will make things interesting every time you get a new kernel, but if needs must... | 20:06 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: try the manual nvidia download if you're comfy at the command line | 20:06 |
| daftykins | or open a guide on another device as you do it | 20:06 |
| lukasz | daftykins, is he on the latest stable from Nvidia? | 20:07 |
| IPPhoneGuy | repo is 331 and latest is 340 | 20:07 |
| daftykins | 331 is just the newest repo one | 20:07 |
| daftykins | so ancient really | 20:07 |
| MrSavage | I don't have this in my apt-get how do I get it to be in my apt-get? http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/hexchat-indicator | 20:08 |
| * lukasz wishes he had a 1440p HDMI display so he could take a look himself | 20:08 | |
| IPPhoneGuy | lukasz: what's the best way to drop the xserver to do the install? :P | 20:09 |
| ben_g | does nobody know what could be related to my headphone problem? | 20:09 |
| daftykins | MrSavage: you can't, it's from a new release | 20:09 |
| IPPhoneGuy | I'm a ubuntu server guy not a desktop guy | 20:09 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, I dont think you have to, just update it while it runs then reboot :) | 20:09 |
| daftykins | sudo service lightdm stop; IPPhoneGuy | 20:09 |
| daftykins | no, nvidia driver needs X stopped | 20:09 |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g: i had a similar issue after an update.. .turned out that the sound card was not installed anymore and i had to manually add it to /etc/modules | 20:09 |
| daftykins | as i say find a guide online, there are hundreds | 20:09 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: how do you do that? | 20:10 |
| lukasz | isnt here a repo for 340 | 20:10 |
| D3V | to install nvidia driver from their website? | 20:10 |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g: what is the output of: 'sudo aplay -l' | 20:11 |
| lukasz | IPPhoneGuy, https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa this should work | 20:11 |
| daftykins | noooo xorg-edgers is horrid | 20:11 |
| daftykins | kill it with fire :P | 20:12 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9543553/ | 20:12 |
| * lukasz shrugs :) | 20:12 | |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g, that is good... so your sound card is installed... | 20:12 |
| championofcyrodi | under All Settings > Sound | 20:12 |
| championofcyrodi | what is in the list? | 20:13 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: is it broken then? The on-board speakers work fine though. | 20:13 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: once you get somewhere with the driver, do give me a shout with how you get on. you're the second i've seen with this kinda quirk in so many weeks | 20:15 |
| IPPhoneGuy | its' really annoying | 20:16 |
| bashfr3ak | anyone knows why when i try to run the Software Manager nothing happens although Synaptic runs fine ? (linux mint 17) | 20:16 |
| IPPhoneGuy | I've got the driver, trying to figure out what the best way to boot without X, or to just drop X all together and do the install is | 20:16 |
| lotuspsychje | !mint | bashfr3ak | 20:16 |
| ubottu | bashfr3ak: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 20:16 |

| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: i already told you :) ctrl+alt+F1 to get to TTY1, log in, "sudo service lightdm stop" then chmod +x driver.run , "sudo ./driver.run" | 20:17 |
| IPPhoneGuy | oh my bad daftykins | 20:17 |
| IPPhoneGuy | missed that | 20:17 |
| bashfr3ak | lotuspsychje lol i miss ubuntu | 20:18 |
| lotuspsychje | bashfr3ak: install ubuntu 14.04 you gonna be pleased :p | 20:19 |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g sorry about that... | 20:21 |
| championofcyrodi | there should be 2 devices... one for speakers and one for headphones | 20:22 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: about what? | 20:22 |
| championofcyrodi | someone in real life had a question so i just ignored you. | 20:22 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: oh. | 20:23 |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g: my headphone issue seemed to go away when i opened sound settings, and clicked 'test sound' | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | championofcyrodi: are you having sound issues? | 20:25 |
| championofcyrodi | no | 20:25 |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g is | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Ahhh | 20:25 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: Do you have any idea what might be the problem if it isn't the sound card drivers? | 20:25 |
| championofcyrodi | i think it has to do with pulse audio and which 'output' device is being used. | 20:25 |
| ben_g | sorry, forgot to scroll down and missed a few lines | 20:25 |
| ben_g | I tried clicking test sound, but it just tells me in a very soft voice which side I clicked. | 20:26 |
| championofcyrodi | how many devices are listed in the 'play sound through' box | 20:26 |
| championofcyrodi | through the headphones? | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ben_g: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh --upload | 20:26 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: just one: the headphones | 20:28 |
| ben_g | ActionParsnip: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=dfeb4334e4b0741e5e9538e952d82d5d263e40e0 | 20:28 |
| championofcyrodi | So is your issue that your headphones don't work? | 20:28 |
| === michael is now known as Guest39080 | ||
| === ara is now known as Guest66740 | ||
| championofcyrodi | the Analog Output should be your headphones (device 0) and your HDMI output is for sound going through hdmi (device 3) | 20:30 |
| championofcyrodi | you want to click/highlight Analog Device in the sounds. | 20:30 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: the headphones do work, but the volume is extremely low (only barely hearable) even when the volume is all the way up | 20:30 |
| lotuspsychje | nice debug trick that alsa page | 20:30 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: only the analog one is present in that box, I have nothing plugged in to my HDMI port | 20:31 |
| championofcyrodi | silly question, but did you ensure the jack is plugged in all the way, and the headphones work properly with another device? | 20:31 |
| razor-home | I was just about to say that. Sometimes the answer is the simplest of things | 20:31 |
| razor-home | some headphones have their own volume control as well. | 20:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Ben_g: try: echo " options snd-hda-intel model=ideapad" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf > /dev/null , reboot to test | 20:31 |
| razor-home | so maybe check that | 20:31 |
| championofcyrodi | also i had a weird issue with a dual boot system... in that when i muted my audio in ubuntu, it could not be unmuted in windows, even though windows reported it as un muted. | 20:32 |
| ben_g | Yes, and I also tried rotating the plug and pulling it out and reinserting it to make sure it wasn't a bad contact | 20:32 |
| niekie | 663rr | 20:32 |
| championofcyrodi | rebooted into ubuntu, clicked unmute, then rebooted back into win7 and audio was back... | 20:32 |
| championofcyrodi | sorry i can't be of any more help... hopefully actionparsnip can help | 20:33 |
| ben_g | championofcyrodi: That might be related: I am using dual booting, and I had a similar problem some time ago, but on windows (though moving back to linux fixed it then) | 20:33 |
| ben_g | ActionParsnip: I've entered that. Brb, rebooting | 20:34 |
| championofcyrodi | ben_g: Yea I'm not sure about that bug/feature with dual booting... my guess is that ubuntu is setting some mute boolean to true on the sound card via bios... then windows can't unmute. | 20:34 |
| === Guest39080 is now known as xuxu | ||
| ben_g_ | I rebooted, the headphones still don't work normally | 20:37 |

| ben_g_ | ActionParsnip: should I add that line again then? | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | ben_g_: sure, just change ideapad to laptop | 20:44 |
| IPPhoneGuy | so yah - that nvidia driver blew everything up :P | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | IPPhoneGuy: why not use the packaged version in nvidia-current ? | 20:44 |
| daftykins | ActionParsnip: because i said not to | 20:44 |
| IPPhoneGuy | ActionParsnip: long story - essentially they suck | 20:45 |
| daftykins | to solve a quirk | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | daftykins: I see | 20:45 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: what happened exactly? you had purged the other driver first yeah? :) | 20:45 |
| ben_g_ | ActionParsnip: Ok, do I have to reboot again now? (I'll also try setting the windows sound to something non-muted then) | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ben_g_: theres a command so you don't have to but I can't recall it | 20:45 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: yeah, then of course after that I installed it and it literally blew up X, locked up the machine on boot etc... | 20:45 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: that's pretty fun, was it the 64-bit .run from nvidia? | 20:46 |
| IPPhoneGuy | yup | 20:46 |
| ben_g_ | ActionParsnip: I'll just reboot then, brb | 20:46 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: thankfully there's nothing on this machine, I just re-rolled in and was back up and running quickly | 20:47 |
| daftykins | re-what now? | 20:47 |
| IPPhoneGuy | rebuilt it :P | 20:47 |
| daftykins | a whole clean install for a driver quirk? | 20:47 |
| daftykins | that's extreme | 20:48 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: sure - it took all of 3 mins :P | 20:48 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 20:48 |
| daftykins | so what are you going to do now? | 20:48 |
| IPPhoneGuy | daftykins: faster than troubleshooting it | 20:48 |
| daftykins | i need results, IPPhoneGuy ! | 20:48 |
| IPPhoneGuy | I'm not quite sure quite honestly | 20:48 |
| daftykins | well not if you knew how | 20:48 |
| daftykins | you could try putting on a newer driver from that nasty xorg-edgers PPA then | 20:48 |
| IPPhoneGuy | having a monitor stuck in 1080p is unacceptable :P | 20:48 |
| daftykins | yip | 20:49 |
| daftykins | so, PPA or go use Windows :> | 20:49 |
| lotuspsychje | IPPhoneGuy: what kind of card is this? | 20:49 |
| IPPhoneGuy | this is the last windows box I have :P | 20:49 |

| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: you done it yet? :P | 20:53 |

| daftykins | i wasn't the one that referred to any links | 20:54 |
| daftykins | just google for xorg-edgers ppa | 20:54 |
| ben_g | I've added that line in the file again unmuted the sound in windows and rebooted back to linux, and now the headphones just don't play any sound anymore | 20:54 |
| ben_g | (though I've tested them in windows and they seemed to work normally there) | 20:55 |

| daftykins | jakubo: you mean... via SSH? | 20:58 |
| jakubo | no locally | 20:59 |
| ikonia | jakubo: how are you trying to login, exactly | 20:59 |
| jakubo | i can login via ssh, but not locally anymore | 20:59 |
| ikonia | ssh server will not impact any login process other than ssh | 20:59 |
| jakubo | push power button... wait and enter credentials to lightdmlogin screen | 20:59 |
| ikonia | and what happens then | 21:00 |
| jakubo | nothing. i get back to the loginscreen | 21:00 |
| ikonia | jakubo: so that suggests its logging you in and then dropping you back out, rather than not logging you in | 21:00 |
| daftykins | check a TTY | 21:00 |
| ikonia | jakubo: many reasons can impact this, such as no space on /home, read only /home, desktop config error (check xsession-errors) | 21:00 |
| brainacid | was wondering how i can measure memory consumption other than using top | 21:02 |
| ikonia | brainacid: measure it in what way ? | 21:02 |
| brainacid | top says i have 4gb ram | 21:02 |
| narthur | Any idea why trying to boot a live CD on a mac would give the error "i8042: No controller found" ? | 21:02 |
| brainacid | well 3.6 | 21:02 |
| jakubo | "failed to start unit user@117.service | 21:02 |
| ikonia | brainacid: what do you actually want to know ? | 21:03 |
| brainacid | and lke 859MB free | 21:03 |
| jakubo | is that too related to ro home? | 21:03 |
| brainacid | im under blackbox | 21:03 |
| brainacid | and wanted to know differences between lxde and blackbox usage | 21:03 |
| ikonia | jakubo: no idea, don't see why though | 21:03 |
| brainacid | ikonia, i might not have a defined problem yet | 21:03 |
| brainacid | l0l | 21:03 |
| ikonia | brainacid: the issue is they are both modular to an extent, so it's not just one process to measure | 21:04 |
| ikonia | you need to look at the collection of processes | 21:04 |
| brainacid | thanks ikonia i appreciate the responses | 21:05 |
| ej | what site is good for updated fixes for know issues.. im getting alot of outdates | 21:07 |
| jakubo | how should i proceed? any idea? | 21:07 |
| ikonia | ej: what do you mean | 21:07 |
| ikonia | jakubo: in what respect ? | 21:07 |
| ej | im i need a siund mixer for gnome for my card and all these fixes r outdated. | 21:08 |
| ej | sound* | 21:08 |
| jakubo | to get home and have a usable desktop. as i can see the contents of home but only via ssh | 21:08 |
| ikonia | fixes are outdated ? | 21:08 |
| ikonia | jakubo: is home read only ? is there space on /home ? | 21:08 |
| ej | well there for ubuntu 10.0 | 21:09 |
| ej | and under | 21:09 |
| ikonia | ej: so that means the fixes will already be included in later releases | 21:09 |
| ej | i dont see 14.4 | 21:09 |
| jakubo | its a 2TB disk with a more or less fresh install. and i did not make it ro. and i can change things via ssh | 21:09 |
| ej | ok.. | 21:09 |
| ikonia | jakubo: did you say earlier this is a livecd ? | 21:09 |
| ikonia | or did I miss-understand | 21:09 |
| jakubo | its not | 21:09 |
| ikonia | ok | 21:09 |
| eka | hi all... I have this NFS mount, but is being mounted with with a specific user owning all the files... how can I change that? | 21:10 |
| ikonia | jakubo: so the first 2 questions a.) does /home have space b.) is /home/$username writeable | 21:10 |
| ej | i ihave a sony vaio the keys for mute i and volume interfering with the mixer. | 21:11 |
| === lex is now known as Guest3451 | ||

| ej | ok last qustion what website do i use for fixes? | 21:12 |
| ikonia | you don't | 21:12 |
| ej | im getting alot ..alot of info! | 21:12 |
| ikonia | getting a lot of what ? | 21:12 |

| ej | advice no fixes | 21:13 |
| ikonia | I've only seen you ask one question about your sound, which isn't really a clear question | 21:13 |
| ej | i know im sry.. | 21:13 |
| ej | theres no sound mixer in alsamixer | 21:14 |
| bluefox83 | ok, for whatever reason i can't get lightdm or gdm to start :( | 21:14 |
| ej | how do install a mixer in alsamixer.. ill start there. | 21:15 |
| bluefox83 | for whatever reason sudo service lightdm start does not seem to work O.o | 21:15 |
| ikonia | install a mixer ? | 21:15 |
| ikonia | ej: you should see your sound device in alsamixer | 21:15 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: define "does not work" | 21:15 |
| ej | or build or compose or .. | 21:16 |
| bluefox83 | nore does sudo service gdm start | 21:16 |
| ej | sry im new. | 21:16 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: sits at a black screen with a blinking cursor indefinately | 21:16 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: what does the logs show | 21:16 |
| bluefox83 | and the gdm one just blinks the terminal window a couple of times | 21:16 |
| ikonia | what does your xession-errors file say | 21:16 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: i don't knowwhere the logs are | 21:16 |
| ikonia | why are you doing sudo gdm start ? the desktop install sets up X to start by default | 21:17 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: because it drops me to a terminal window instead of starting D: | 21:17 |
| bluefox83 | and of course now i can't switch to another terminal window ...that's fun | 21:18 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: what did you install, ubuntu/lubuntu/xubuntu ? | 21:19 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: ubuntu | 21:20 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: when you first installed it did the desktop auto start ? | 21:20 |
| bluefox83 | but uh...for whatever reason i have to run it via the the safe mode thing, then hit resume | 21:20 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: when you first installed it did the desktop auto start ? | 21:20 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: yeah. it was working fine this morning | 21:20 |
| ej | is there a log file i could show u guys? to help me explain my lack of verbage? | 21:20 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: then what happened/what changed before it stopped working | 21:21 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: i dunno, i was watching clips on cnn.com this morning and my screen turned white...i cycled it to restart X but instead it shut off... | 21:21 |
| bluefox83 | and then i left for work | 21:21 |
| bluefox83 | i just got home, and X wont start4 | 21:22 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: so your desktop crashed at some point | 21:22 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: sounds like it4 | 21:22 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: so look at your .xsession-logs in your home directory and your xorg logs in /var/log | 21:22 |
| bluefox83 | ok, i'll have to launch something like tmux before i can be in here and do that at the same time...brb | 21:23 |
| bluefox83 | ok...lets see if i can figure out how to use tmux still... | 21:24 |
| bluefox83 | doesn't matter, i can switch between terminals now... | 21:27 |
| bluefox83 | ikonia: what were the two files i needed to check for errors? | 21:29 |
| thx | I'm running Xubuntu 14.04 on inspiron 14z and when I close my lid and reopen it, the screen stays black. Searching on google I saw information about enable light blocker, but this recipe doesn't work. | 21:31 |

| bluefox83 | i'm really starting to get frustrated with this whole thing...getting ubuntu running on this laptop is like pulling teeth from a freaking tiger :( | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: wassup? | 21:34 |
| bluefox83 | i got the type of ubuntu installer i'm supposed to use for my laptop and every time i turn around there's another problem | 21:34 |
| bluefox83 | ActionParsnip: currently i can no longer get an X session running | 21:35 |
| bluefox83 | no gdm or lightdm | 21:35 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: what happened before the issue? Updates? | 21:35 |
| bluefox83 | not a thing | 21:35 |
| bluefox83 | i haven't updated in weeks4 | 21:35 |
| bluefox83 | -4 | 21:36 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: have you tested RAM using memtest86 | 21:36 |
| bluefox83 | i watched some clips on cnn.com and now...poof | 21:36 |
| bluefox83 | ActionParsnip: actually memtest86 wont run :( | 21:36 |
| bluefox83 | i'm runnning an old kernel in safe mode...which is the only way i can get ubuntu to run! | 21:36 |
| bluefox83 | it was running fine, had everything working fine...now, for whatever reason; no X | 21:37 |
| Ben64 | "i got the type of ubuntu installer i'm supposed to use for my laptop" <<---- what does that mean | 21:38 |
| bluefox83 | well my samsung laptop has uefi so i got the installer for that...you know it crashes almost immediately after telling it to do anything? | 21:39 |
| bluefox83 | i tried a few months ago to update it...but it's no-go | 21:39 |
| Ben64 | you really should run memtest | 21:39 |
| bluefox83 | i'm getting frustrated with ubuntu, but not sure if i really want to put the work into anything else... | 21:40 |
| ej | bluefox83, di u have any audio problems? | 21:40 |
| ej | did* | 21:40 |
| ej | its worth it! | 21:40 |
| bluefox83 | ej: i couldn't make it past "install ubuntu" in the installer to get any audio problems | 21:40 |
| bluefox83 | i'm on like 12.04 right now, running a really old kernel in safe mode or recovery...whatever | 21:41 |
| ej | ooh i see .. i had a hell of a time to im on a sony vaio.. | 21:41 |
| ej | no=acpi | 21:42 |

| bluefox83 | it wouldn't work | 21:42 |

| Ben64 | no | 21:42 |
| bluefox83 | can i run it from grub? O.o | 21:42 |

| Ben64 | bluefox83: with what you're describing, sounds like a hardware problem | 21:43 |
| daftykins | IPPhoneGuy: bam. seems like an HDMI capability issue then, did you try a 340 driver beforehand too? | 21:43 |
| ej | goodluck. | 21:43 |
| MrSavage | ah i tried apt-get install chrome and it didn't work | 21:44 |

| === beisner- is now known as beisner | ||
| ej | i should nit be advising people. | 21:45 |
| ej | not* | 21:45 |
| daftykins | bprompt: .deb's are bad | 21:45 |
| MrSavage | bprompt: i'm getting numerous loading issues after changing my router. however the ubuntu browser loads fine for the pages having issues on firefox | 21:45 |
| etomiotto | pt-br ! | 21:45 |
| bprompt | well..... I find them great :) | 21:45 |
| MrSavage | bprompt: also the file picker sucks on firefox so hard | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | bprompt: one you install the chrome deb it will add Google's repo for you | 21:46 |
| etomiotto | my driver of a | 21:46 |
| bprompt | ActionParsnip: yes.... I'm aware... could remove.. but I always download the .deb anyhow | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | bprompt: you should its a great way to add chrome to the system as well as upgrades :-) | 21:47 |
| bprompt | MrSavage: the file picker.. if you mean the window to choose a file from firefox... that's provided by gtk, all firefox does is launch whatever window manager calls it | 21:47 |
| MrSavage | bprompt: is it possible to change that? | 21:48 |
| MrSavage | I find unity fine except for the horrendous file manager | 21:48 |
| MrSavage | and unity being generally buggy with some openGL | 21:48 |
| bprompt | MrSavage: onlyb if you change the window manager I gather... afaik... firefox only launches whatever file picker the window manager gives...... though in my case it launches a gtk, which leads me to think it simply uses the gtk file window anyhow | 21:49 |
| daftykins | bprompt: .deb's great? installing and never getting updated? mmm not very wise advice | 21:50 |
| MrSavage | bprompt: I think you can change it via the file_picker option in about:config | 21:50 |
| bprompt | MrSavage: as far as the pages... could be a number of things... no necessarily the browser itself... just some configuration issue | 21:50 |
| daftykins | oh just read up, sounds like it's different for chrome's .deb | 21:50 |
| MrSavage | bprompt: how can i fix this issue then? | 21:50 |
| etomiotto | I'm using google translator to talk to you | 21:50 |
| MrSavage | ok now google chrome is hanging | 21:51 |
| MrSavage | on loading a page | 21:51 |
| bprompt | MrSavage: well.. we have no info on what might be going on... so.. you haven't quite provided much, other than some pages don't load well or at all.... dunno offhand. | 21:51 |
| MrSavage | how can i check if this is an issue with ubuntu's config or whatever? | 21:51 |
| ActionParsnip | daftykins: the chrome deb adds google's repo, so you will get updates. | 21:51 |

| MrSavage | and I just received information that i requested 5 min ago | 21:53 |
| bprompt | MrSavage: hmmm well... you mention it started when you setup a new router.... so... maybe some configuration is telling the browsers to use a different network interface.. or something in the network setup changed, it looks like | 21:54 |

| Heebie1 | Hello. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and I just did an apt-get update and restarted my machine, and now my ZFS-based /home directory is not mounting with everything else when the system starts. Has anyone seen this? I can't find anything online about it. | 22:05 |
| ActionParsnip | eternnoir: 1) Which Atheros do you have? 2) What is the output of: cat /etc/issue neither is answered by "yes" | 22:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Heebie1: can you manually mount it ok? | 22:06 |
| jatt | Heebie1: check the logs (and dmesg) | 22:06 |
| Heebie1 | ActionParsnip: Only from a repair shell. Once I login to my account, it creates a new home directory for me on the / partition. It's quite annoying! | 22:06 |
| Heebie1 | jatt: That's a good idea. :/ | 22:07 |
| === tekkbuzz is now known as Guest89393 | ||
| Heebie1 | jatt: There doesn't appear to be anything useful. The only mount failure is a CIFS drive that isn't online on the network. | 22:10 |

| KrisDouglas | arun_, Gnome shell is about the most touch friendly of the interfaces, you can make most of the icons and launchers big enough in the configurations to make it quite a nice UI | 22:29 |
| KrisDouglas | alex_lostpass, what are you trying to achieve, I missed the start of your query? | 22:29 |
| alex_lostpass | i deleted my wrapper passfile, booted live linux now. trying to restore | 22:29 |
| alex_lostpass | is the location /home/user/.ecryptfs/ ? | 22:30 |
| === sergio_ is now known as Guest29471 | ||
| === Guest29471 is now known as sershei | ||
| k1l_ | KrisDouglas: arun_ same goes for unity. but i dont consider it fully touch friendly. there are still a lot of situations where you need a right-click or such which doesnt work on touch | 22:30 |
| KrisDouglas | Right click on touch is done with a simple long press on the screen, most systems support that by default now, unity and gnome shell included. (exactly the same as android) | 22:31 |
| KrisDouglas | Though as you say, unity is okay for touch screens | 22:31 |
| KrisDouglas | alex_lostpass, so you have an encrypted FS and you have lost the password? | 22:32 |
| alex_lostpass | KrisDouglas, yes. i lost the wrapped passfile (INFO: Could not find your wrapped passphrase file.) | 22:33 |
| KrisDouglas | alex_lostpass, (quote: help.ubuntu.com) - If you have lost your wrapped-passphrase file, and you did not record your mount passphrase, it is impossible to access your encrypted data. | 22:34 |
| KrisDouglas | alex_lostpass, good security design at work there I'm afraid. | 22:35 |
| Heebie1 | Which file, in particular, is the wrapped-passphrase file? Is there a way to get back the passphrase from that file? | 22:35 |
| tnkhanh | I just installed virtualbox from a tarball | 22:36 |
| KrisDouglas | if the file on the system has been deleted or lost for whatever reason, and it has not been backed up to a secure location, there i little chance of recovery. | 22:36 |
| tnkhanh | how to run it in terminal as if I installed via apt-get | 22:36 |
| KrisDouglas | The url is "/home/username/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase" | 22:36 |
| alex_lostpass | KrisDouglas, i cant give up. i might brute force the file. its only 32 byte | 22:36 |
| k1l_ | tnkhanh: why didnt you use a deb file? | 22:36 |
| KrisDouglas | url, sorry, I mean path | 22:36 |
| KrisDouglas | tnkhanh, why didn't you download a native debian file? | 22:36 |
| KrisDouglas | ooh sorry beaten to it, sorry k1l_ | 22:36 |
| Heebie1 | Thanks Kris. Sounds like something important to back up. That was a PATHetic mistake, though. ;) | 22:36 |
| alex_lostpass | ls: cannot access /home/alex/.ecryptfs/wra*: No such file or directory | 22:36 |
| tnkhanh | KrisDouglas: because I see a tarball available :-? | 22:37 |
| KrisDouglas | Heebie1, alex_lostpass sounds very much like you fell victim to the "if you don't have it twice you don't have it" rule. :( | 22:37 |
| KrisDouglas | tnkhanh, it's a bit of a pain to do it that way | 22:38 |
| tnkhanh | KrisDouglas: I install some programs as tarballs because I see its newer version | 22:38 |
| alex_lostpass | KrisDouglas, im restoring an ancient backup of a server currently. it might be there (i created the key 1 year ago or so) | 22:38 |
| Heebie1 | It's /home/.ecryptfs/<username>/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase on my system, alex_lostpass, in case you find it somewhere. | 22:38 |
| tnkhanh | KrisDouglas: but then I realize then I cannot run it in terminal. Help :( | 22:38 |
| k1l_ | tnkhanh: that is the breaking point now. vbox ships deb files for ubuntu. that include services like easy starting | 22:39 |
| KrisDouglas | tnkhanh, that doesn't really make much difference. You can still download the bang-up-to-date version in a .deb file from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads | 22:39 |
| ActionParsnip | tnkhanh: not only does virtualbox have its own repo, but it is also in the default ubuntu repos, so why are you using a tarball at all? | 22:39 |
| Dragin | What is the command to get glib-2.0? (I mean where is it located?) I am trying to install gtk+-3.14.6 and I need about 5 other files as well | 22:39 |

| ActionParsnip | tnkhanh: sudo apt-get install virtualbox , and you are done.... | 22:39 |

| tnkhanh | oh I started with OCaml and Eclipse | 22:40 |
| KrisDouglas | to install a deb it's as simple as "sudo dpkg-install FILENAME.deb" | 22:40 |
| tnkhanh | cause the tarball is newer version | 22:40 |
| tnkhanh | just a few days ago | 22:40 |
| Heebie1 | alex_lostpass: Mine isn't it/s a file. (a very short binary one.) | 22:40 |
| tnkhanh | since then I love tarballs :D | 22:41 |
| === swordsmanz is now known as swordz_snoozeing | ||
| tnkhanh | but that way I can't run things from terminal | 22:41 |
| tnkhanh | help :( | 22:41 |
| alex_lostpass | Heebie1, i meant /home/user/.ecryptfs and /home/.ecryptfs/user/ is the same. the file should be 32 bytes consisting of 0-9 and a-z according to wiki | 22:41 |
| Heebie1 | alex_lostpass: I can see some letters and numbers with strings, but if I simply cat it, it looks binary. | 22:42 |
| KrisDouglas | tnkhanh, virtualbox relies on a lot of services, and the very latest bleeding-edge version won't give you much (if any) benefit from the download designed for ubuntu at their website. | 22:43 |
| k1l_ | tnkhanh: so see where you tarballed it to. | 22:43 |
| alex_lostpass | Heebie1, how big is it, if i might ask? | 22:43 |
| Heebie1 | So, is there a way to recover the cleartext passphrase from that wrapped-passphrase file? | 22:43 |
| Heebie1 | It's 48 bytes. | 22:43 |
| alex_lostpass | Heebie1, i think the password you type and the file together are used to form a passphrase | 22:44 |
| KrisDouglas | Heebie1, it's very unlikely that the contents of that file actually contain the password, more a calculation based on it. | 22:44 |
| tnkhanh | KrisDouglas: k1l_ : thanks, I'm just installing it via software center now | 22:44 |
| KrisDouglas | Okay, I can't guarantee the software centre one is going to be the latest version, but the one on the website always is. | 22:45 |
| alex_lostpass | damn. extundelete didnt find files exactly 48bytes long | 22:45 |
| alex_lostpass | my last chance is that ancient backup :#( | 22:47 |
| Heebie1 | alex_lostpass: One of the (many) reasons I use ZFS, is so that I can run back to a snapshot if I need to recover something. | 22:49 |
| KrisDouglas | ZFS is good | 22:49 |
| arun_ | THanks k1l_ and KrisDouglas | 22:49 |
| KrisDouglas | arun_, no probs :) Have a play, there's always something that can be beaten with a hammer to work for you :) | 22:50 |
| ActionParsnip | alex_lostpass: I suggest you review your backup regime | 22:50 |
| alex_lostpass | ActionParsnip, yeah... i just have too many devices... 1/3 without backup 1/3 like this 1/3 multiple backups | 22:51 |
| KrisDouglas | ActionParsnip, << what he said! If you don't have it twice, you don't have it. Daily backups at a minium for my machines. Most of my stuff is backed up on the fly to an on site, and then nightlied off-site. | 22:51 |
| Heebie1 | I love ZFS. Right now I have point-in-time snapshots of all my data filesystems back to the beginning of November. It works very well. | 22:51 |
| Heebie1 | (I still backup my ZFS filesystems to other disks as well.) | 22:51 |
| ActionParsnip | I have a dirty cron'd rsync job to usb. | 22:51 |
| alex_lostpass | i still have JFS on some disks :) | 22:52 |
| KrisDouglas | That is from 2 laptops, 2 tablets, a desktop and 4 servers! | 22:52 |
| KrisDouglas | Way too much data in my house, need to burn some! haha | 22:52 |
| Heebie1 | ActionParsnip: Have you tried using rsnapshot? It's very good for that type of thing. | 22:52 |
| Heebie1 | KrisDouglas: I have a 6x8TB raidz2 array.. at about 60% capacity. (that's just at home. at work I've got about 150 3TB spindles.. lots of data.) | 22:53 |
| alex_lostpass | KrisDouglas, same here, 6 androids phones, 2 androids tabs, 2 ipads, 3 laptops, 4 embedded devices, 1 htpc, 1 esxi, 1 gaming device, 1 testing device, the NAS, the routers, the 3 servers in the datacenter, the VPN vservers, ... | 22:54 |
| bekks | alex_lostpass: And no valuable backup?! | 22:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Heebie1: the crontab is about 10 years old dude, not looking to change it anytime soon ;) | 22:54 |
| alex_lostpass | bekks, depends. the servers are important, so they have raid-1 and daily backups | 22:55 |
| alex_lostpass | the laptop here is .. well, nice to have, but i never found the time to sync him | 22:55 |
| Heebie1 | ActionParsnip: sounds like it might be time to get some new hardware! Eek! | 22:55 |
| alex_lostpass | now i downloaded some files for work on it and i really need them | 22:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Heebie1: why, its all fine. New pair of disks every 4 years... | 22:56 |
| ShRP_ | help | 22:57 |
| ShRP_ | oops | 22:57 |
| ShRP_ | sorry | 22:57 |
| tnkhanh | shrp_: hi | 22:58 |
| kevdog_ | does brtfs also do snapshots? | 22:58 |
| kevdog_ | I hear that filesystem being talked about alot | 22:58 |
| daftykins | i think it's still experimental | 22:58 |
| daftykins | not sure | 22:58 |
| Heebie1 | btrfs, I think is getting a lot of mention, because it "back ends" things like CEPH. | 22:58 |
| alex_lostpass | stupid question: if i cant restore my user | 23:01 |
| alex_lostpass | can i at least use the system and create a new user? | 23:01 |
| Heebie1 | alex_lostpass: Yes, you should be able to do that. | 23:02 |
| arun_ | KrisDouglas: thanks, hey can we just modify gnome3 menu ? to our desire ? | 23:02 |
| ActionParsnip | alex_lostpass: not sure personally, I dont use encrypted filesystems. Too much head ache | 23:02 |
| arun_ | just the items positions | 23:02 |
| alex_lostpass | Heebie1, but i have this empty path and user id. how do i "reset" it? | 23:03 |
| Heebie1 | alex_lostpass: delete that user account and create a new one. | 23:03 |
| julien | ju | 23:04 |
| alex_lostpass | WAIT. i might have found smething in ancient backup!!!!!!!!! | 23:04 |
| * Heebie1 thinks it's high time I reboot the machine to see if my ZFS /home filesystem mounts correctly this time! :/ | 23:05 | |
| alex_lostpass | Error: Your kernel does not support filename encryption | 23:05 |
| alex_lostpass | i cant do it from this live linux. will reboot and rejoin in a sec | 23:06 |
| Heebie1 | Good news is that my /home directory mounted and all is well! :) | 23:11 |

| daniel3_ | How would you connect to a wireless network using the Mac address instead of the ssid? | 23:14 |
| daniel3_ | I am using cli, no gui. | 23:14 |
| === jean is now known as Guest43997 | ||
| ActionParsnip | daniel3_: wicd-cli if you install wicd and remove network manager | 23:17 |
| alex_nub1 | Passfile alex here | 23:17 |
| daniel3_ | I don't have wicd.. | 23:17 |
| alex_nub1 | So. I found the recovery key but cant login. Only mount data | 23:17 |
| daniel3_ | I am just using the /etc/network/interfaces files | 23:17 |
| ActionParsnip | daniel3_: that can work too | 23:18 |
| Heebie1 | alex_nub1: Why can't you login? That doesn't make a lot of sense. | 23:18 |
| alex_nub1 | Is the wrapped_passfile in /home/user/.ecryptfs/? What is the exact name? | 23:18 |
| daniel3_ | Ive been googling for a little bit now and cant find the actual syntax to put in my file. | 23:18 |
| alex_nub1 | Heebie1 ecryptfs-recover lets me mount my sruff in /tmp | 23:18 |
| daniel3_ | I tried wpa-bssid XX:XX:XX:XX:XX *as mac address" but that didn't work. | 23:18 |
| Heebie1 | alex_nub1: /home/.ecryptfs/<user>/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase | 23:19 |
| EriC^^ | daniel3_: man nmcli | 23:19 |
| alex_nub1 | Heebie1 ahh, i had it wrong. Will retry. Btw the key is exactly 32 bytes | 23:19 |
| EriC^^ | daniel3_: there's an example at the bottom | 23:19 |
| Heebie1 | good for ecryptfs-recover :) | 23:19 |
| Heebie1 | alex_nub1: Weird that my key is 48 bytes. :/ (with some of that being binary.) | 23:20 |
| daniel3_ | Well said. | 23:20 |
| === Joint is now known as Aaron | ||
| alex_nub1 | Heebie1 i hope i can just put the key there and login normally | 23:20 |
| daniel3_ | No man pages for nmcli :) | 23:20 |
| daniel3_ | Did I mention this is ubuntu-server? | 23:21 |
| Heebie1 | give it a shot! | 23:21 |
| arun_ | guys, is gnome3 in the repo? | 23:23 |
| bubbasaures | yes it's the gnome-shell | 23:23 |
| k1l_ | arun_: yes. but gnome3 is only the base. unity uses gnome3 base, too. you mean gnome-shell | 23:23 |
| alex_nub1 | Heebie1 nope. Seems i need the binary part. Need to read manual.... | 23:24 |
| Heebie1 | bummer. :/ | 23:24 |
| daniel3_ | So yeah, no man cli on my ubuntu-server installaton, Im not seeing an example at http://linux.die.net/man/1/nmcli that is related to what to put in /etc/network/interfaces | 23:24 |
| arun_ | k1l_: yes, gnome-shell | 23:26 |

| username_blahbla | Hello | 23:31 |
| username_blahbla | Is this the correct channel for install issues? | 23:32 |
| daniel3_ | I think I migght have gotten it. How do I verify what bssid I am connected to? | 23:32 |
| thecha | Hello username_blahbla | 23:32 |
| thecha | how may i help | 23:32 |
| daniel3_ | Actually just saw it in dmesg. I did it using wpa_supplicant. | 23:32 |
| thecha | username_blahbla→ what seems to be the problem | 23:32 |
| username_blahbla | I'm trying to create a bootable USB installer to install on a Mac Mini. Following these instructions makes something the mini can't boot from: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx | 23:33 |
| thecha | Oh, well-- | 23:34 |
| username_blahbla | I don't believe the problem is with the USB stick because I've tried several and non have worked. Also, I've used drives that have I've been able to boot other systems from | 23:34 |
| username_blahbla | *non->none | 23:35 |
| Bashing-om | daniel3_: Maybe something like in /etc/network/interfaces : (line 1) >> auto lo , (line2) >> iface eth1 inet dhcp , (line 3) >> auto eth1 , (line 4) iface eth1 inet dhcp . Hope that helps . | 23:35 |
| thecha | you have to format to fat 32 | 23:35 |
| thecha | fat datasystem | 23:36 |
| daniel3_ | bashfr3ak, I got it using stuff from this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo I basically specified the bssid in wpa_supplicant. | 23:36 |
| username_blahbla | Before the dd step? | 23:36 |
| username_blahbla | I figured it wouldn't matter what fs what on the stick before the dd since the dd blows it away any way. Is that wrong? | 23:37 |
| Bashing-om | daniel3_: : ) . | 23:37 |
