[00:04] <gfrost> is there a channel for rspbmc (xbmc on raspberry)?
[00:05] <snadge> is there a known issue with mtp and samsung devices?
[00:05] <snadge> im trying not to get angry about it
[00:05] <gfrost> raspbmc
[00:05] <snadge> "failed to open input stream for file" when clicking on any files in the camera folder on my phone
[00:05] <gfrost> (This IRC client is featureless!)
[00:07] <EriC^^> user4: dont use that command, it has a bunch of errors
[00:08] <EriC^^> user4: if you do, you have to grep for the exact match and also not grep $(sed 's/ /\n/g' /path/to/file) instead of the file
[00:09] <EriC^^> might be other stuff wrong with it.. test it if you do use it
[00:09] <eugene3> hi guys (merry christmas if you're celebrating), I have 2 ec2 instances that occasionaly kernel panic in move_freepages_block (for example https://gist.githubusercontent.com/libc/595909a6734e15a10063/raw/3bd097e4b80b01dbb5e0d9c526eef8028199d329/gistfile1.txt) is that reportable to ubuntu lunchpad or there's a better place?
[00:09] <EriC^^> *and also grep $(...
[00:13] <EriC^^> i tested it on a tiny file..
[00:14] <EriC^^> so you're better off testing it on something you have a list of already or something if it's important
[00:14] <DarkAceZ> can I run dconf to read the config from my other OS that's not booted?
[00:24] <bubbasaures> DarkAceZ, What is the actual problem?
[00:24] <DarkAceZ> I'd like to view the config of that system
[00:25] <DarkAceZ> and/or copy some of them to this one
[00:25] <bubbasaures> DarkAceZ, There are tons of configs
[00:25] <DarkAceZ> I'm mostly interested in my keybindings
[00:26] <bubbasaures> Not sure on that specifically, why don't you just set it up?
[00:26] <anothermoron> When developing on linux, where should I put user related file ? Like I need to save a file countaining a list of task, but saving it right in the /home dir of the user seems a little... odd
[00:28] <EriC^^> anothermoron: /home/user/.<your program>/file
[00:28] <EriC^^> i guess
[00:28] <DarkAceZ> bubbasaures: it was a lot of keybindings
[00:28] <plasmasnake> anothermoron: yeah, a lot of applications put a hidden folder in the user's home dir
[00:28] <DarkAceZ> I took a screenshot of them in the keybinding setter, but it didn't include the commands
[00:29] <bubbasaures> DarkAceZ, I would think you would want to memorize that, if that important, saving configs is okay till you can't get one or loose it.
[00:29] <anothermoron> Oh thanks Eric, that sound way better thanka guya :)
[00:29] <EriC^^> anothermoron: no problem :)
[00:30] <joshuasm32> Does this channel cover Ubuntu Touch?
[00:31] <bazhang> !touch
[00:31] <joshuasm32> Thanks
[00:32] <bubbasaures> DarkAceZ, Last paragraph, I would investigate if this is true. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Keybindings
[00:33] <bubbasaures> DarkAceZ, you can chroot the other to see it in a cli, not sure you can bring up a gui.
[00:33] <bubbasaures> doesn't fix any missing commands however
[00:39] <mijk> how do I get access to /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo?
[00:39] <mijk> I can't even create the folder as sudo
[00:40] <mijk> it also appears that the mount point is rw
[00:40] <mijk> Ubuntu 14..10
[00:41] <Chuck_Norris> mijk: sudo -i
[00:41] <EriC^^> mijk: /sys is a virtual filesystem
[00:43] <Chuck_Norris> i forget about that :P
[00:43] <EriC^^> mijk: are you booted with nomodeset?
[00:49] <Ramone> hey all... can anyone tell me why my iptables port-forwarding rules don't seem to go into `iptables -L -n` ? and don't seem to be working?
[00:49] <bazhang> Ramone, try #netfilter
[00:50] <Ramone> I'm trying to run a web server on 8080: `sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080`
[00:50] <Ramone> ahh good idea...thanks
[00:50] <daftykins> why don't you just reconfigure it to run on that port? :P
[00:50] <Ramone> it'd have to run w route privileges if I did that
[00:50] <Ramone> *root
[00:51] <daftykins> run what?
[00:51] <Ramone> the web server
[00:51] <daftykins> why is not not already 0o
[00:52] <Ramone> huh?
[00:52] <somsip> daftykins: that question should be taken out and shot
[00:52] <Chuck_Norris> Ramone: maybe:  echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward  ?
[00:52] <daftykins> somsip: which? :)
[00:52] <somsip> daftykins: which one not not?
[00:53] <daftykins> ...
[00:53] <Ramone> Chuck_Norris, it's already 1
[01:00] <user> hi guys, is there a way to have google android apps, including play store, within ubuntu?
[01:00] <bubbasaures> no
[01:00] <desmond> Hello
[01:00] <somsip> user: er...web browser?
[01:00] <bubbasaures> touch I think has some access
[01:00] <desmond> Does does installing bumblebee-nvidia alaos install the nvidia driver?
[01:00] <user> somsip: you mean that i can run adroid apps in my browser?
[01:01] <desmond> Does does installing bumblebee-nvidia alaos install the nvidia driver on 14.10 (utopic)?
[01:01] <somsip> user: so run them, not search for them? Android emulator
[01:01] <desmond> The ubuntu wiki is unclear and doesn't specify anything specific to utopic
[01:01] <daftykins> nvidia-prime is best over bumblebee these days
[01:03] <desmond> I see, I haven't used bumblebee in a while so I didn't know there was an alternative
[01:04] <daftykins> sure is
[01:04] <daftykins> installing nvidia-prime together with a driver version, e.g. nvidia-331 should work
[01:05] <Ben64> if you install ubuntu with a network connection, it should set all that up for you
[01:07] <desmond> I just did apt-get remove bumblebee --purge, and now my display manager (ubuntu gnome) won't run
[01:07] <desmond> it just shows me tty1 when I boot... what could have broken? :(
[01:08] <desmond> I'm just going to install nvidia-prime and nvidia-331 to see if that fixes it
[01:08] <bubbasaures> desmond, Use nomodeset or safe x from recovery to get a low graphic boot.
[01:08] <jrg> ugh
[01:08] <jrg> like none of these pages are live anymore :/
[01:09] <jrg> http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/OLiFE
[01:09] <desmond> okay
[01:09] <jrg> i'm trying to put ubuntu on a TF101
[01:09] <jrg> can't find any of the tools to do it
[01:09] <daftykins> i wouldn't even consider that a supported device.
[01:09] <bubbasaures> jrg, What ubuntu is to be installed?
[01:10] <jrg> bubbasaures: i don't care which one lol
[01:10] <desmond> i hate this laptop, i have to spend hours getting my graphics card and wireless driver to work
[01:11] <bubbasaures> I suspect this was attached to the touch teams ubuntu desktop images
[01:11] <jrg> i'm just ttrying to install ubuntu on this TF101
[01:11] <jrg> bubbasaures: is there some newer place for this stuff?
[01:11] <sidBitla> hello
[01:11] <jrg> the xda pages are severly outdated
[01:11] <jrg> and none of the links work
[01:12] <daftykins> desmond: that's being pretty dramatic, it's seconds to get optimus setups going and probably similar on wireless.
[01:12] <bubbasaures> jrg, That link was probably for loading the touch desktop images not around any more.
[01:12] <mijk> so how do I modify /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch then?
[01:12] <desmond> I've always had problems with this laptop, most distros (fedora, linux mint) won't even live boot
[01:13] <desmond> so I'm assuming that it's because of the hardware, but I could be wrong
[01:13] <bubbasaures> jrg, We can help if your clear in what you want and or have an issue with and a computer that is usable for it.
[01:14] <jrg> bubbasaures: i have a B60 TF101 (Asus Transformer) and I'm just trying to install any flavor of ubuntu on it
[01:14] <jrg> http://hdfpga.blogspot.com/2012/04/install-native-ubuntu-on-eeepad.html
[01:14] <bubbasaures> jrg, Yes that is all you keep saying.
[01:14] <jrg> this seems a bit more straightforward
[01:14] <desmond> it takes seconds if everything goes well
[01:14] <jrg> bubbasaures: so i'm just trying to find a place that has what i need to get it done
[01:15] <desmond> I'm getting this when I try to run startx: Undefined Screen "nvidia" referenced by ScreenLayout "layout"
[01:15] <bubbasaures> jrg, THere are only specific releases supported you are flailing, do the research. ;)
[01:15] <daftykins> you shouldn't use 'startx' anymore
[01:15] <Stanley00> desmond: it will take just a min if you know how to do. Do you remember the first time you install *other* os? :3
[01:16] <jrg> bubbasaures: can you direct me to a site with some information about it?
[01:16] <desmond> daftykins: what should I use in place of startx?
[01:16] <jrg> i'm looking around trying to find newer sites with information on how to do it and they're all from 2012
[01:16] <jrg> or older
[01:17] <daftykins> 'sudo service lightdm start'
[01:17] <jrg> Thanks to eeepadhacks.net for providing a tool to install native Ubuntu 11.04 on  EeePad Transformer TF101.
[01:17] <bubbasaures> jrg, Not really this is not technically supported here is all, does not mean no help, but being hand held I would not expect in any time soon.
[01:17] <jrg> i'm going to be rocking 11.04 it seems :)
[01:17] <jrg> bubbasaures: well.. with the keyboard attached...
[01:17] <bubbasaures> jrg, my point 11.04 is eol not supported.
[01:17] <jrg> it's actually closer to an arm based netbook
[01:17] <desmond> I'm using gdm, and when I try to start gdm I get "job is already running"
[01:18] <bubbasaures> you are wasting our time do the research. ;)
[01:18] <desmond> but it's a black screen
[01:18] <daftykins> desmond: restart it
[01:18] <jrg> bubbasaures: well i just figured it is possible someone here might have inormation about a newer version of ubuntu and a means to put it on the tf101
[01:18] <jrg> which is why i asked
[01:18] <jrg> or maybe be able to direct me to a site with information about it.. but i'll just keep searching. thanks anyways.
[01:19] <daftykins> i wouldn't even try to install on that thing
[01:19] <desmond> daftykins: still black screen. is there a logs somewhere?
[01:19] <daftykins> /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:19] <Bashing-om> mijk: Open source drivers installed / As 'switcheroo only works with the open source drivers . https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics .
[01:19] <jrg> bubbasaures: something like this... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices/tf101
[01:19] <jrg> :P
[01:19] <Ben64> jrg: maybe #ubuntu-arm could help, but definitely not 11.04
[01:20] <jrg> Ben64: ah ok. thakns. didn't know there was an ubuntu-arm
[01:20] <jrg> appreciate it
[01:20] <desmond> there's 14 files beginning with Xorg., what are they? :P
[01:21] <daftykins> *shrug*
[01:21] <desmond> in the logs, it only has the error I mentioned previously, undefined screen "nvidia"
[01:21] <daftykins> if you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf, rename it
[01:21] <desmond> this was all working until I tried to install bumblebee and uninstalled it
[01:22] <daftykins> oh dear :(
[01:23] <desmond> I renamed it and it created another xorg.conf file, with the same contents
[01:23] <chomwitt_> hi. why ubuntu software center wont show adobe-flashplugin ? (in trusty?)
[01:23] <plasmasnake> jrg: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?s=8b68080ea214513ef523692e9638aa66&t=2648862
[01:24] <daftykins> chomwitt_: flash player is dead
[01:24] <plasmasnake> (i don't know anything about it, but just searched xda for you)
[01:25] <chomwitt_> daftykins: i've haerd that adobe drop support, but anyway i'm curious how can a package be visible in aptitude and not in ucs ?
[01:26] <daftykins> *shrug*
[01:26] <daftykins> don't deal with GUI stuff i'm afraid.
[01:28] <bubbasaures> mr-cli
[01:28] <jrg> plasmasnake: you totally rock!
[01:28] <jrg> thanks!
[01:28] <Thundersurge_> exit
[01:29] <plasmasnake> jrg: np
[01:33] <chomwitt_> i notice (surprise) that in software center searcing mathes whole words and not subwords!
[01:34] <desmond> daftykins: well, i installed nvidia-prime like you said and restarted and everything works now
[01:34] <desmond> still no idea what's going on :| but prime is nice since I can switch profiles
[01:35] <daftykins> desmond: \o/
[01:38] <chomwitt_> can someone please try , ubuntu software center searching adobe wont match adobe-flashplugin but searching for 'adobe-' will match!!
[01:42] <chomwitt_> ok. i'v found relative bug report.. usc's search sucks!
[01:42] <Bashing-om> chomwitt_: Try as flashplugin-installer .
[01:44] <SchrodingersScat> chomwitt_: I actually have the opposite outcome of my search as you describe, 'adobe' brings up 'adobe flash plugin' and 'adobe-' shows a frowning emoticon indicating that I have done wrong.
[01:45] <chomwitt_> Bashing-om: i was searching for the adobe-flashplugin (its another package that made my firefox play flash in my 64bit trusty)
[01:45] <OerHeks> chomwitt_, enable 3th party repo first
[01:46] <chomwitt_> SchrodingersScat: that could be explained i guess if u'have not partner repo enabled
[01:46] <OerHeks> or 'canonical partner'
[01:47] <chomwitt_> OerHeks: i've enabled it . i found the package. but i was troubled for an hour due to pure search resullts from ucs (bug 1190016 (
[01:47] <chomwitt_> :-)
[01:47] <OerHeks> install synaptic, more detailed softwarecenter.
[01:49] <chomwitt_> OerHeks: the problem is that simple users trying to solve flash player problems will go searching from ucs (some friends of mine did that ) i can use aptitude easyly
[01:51] <daftykins> the only flash player problem right now is that it still exists
[01:51] <daftykins> it's no longer an option for firefox and that's it, so there's not much to be concerned about :)
[01:51] <chomwitt_> daftykins: what should i say to new users tryning to see flash videos in firefox ?
[01:51] <chomwitt_> a!
[01:51] <daftykins> go check out the pepperflash wrappers.
[01:52] <EriC^^> i'm using chrome for flash
[01:52] <EriC^^> didn't like it at first, it's growing on me though
[01:52] <daftykins> however actually, HTML5 players will cover the big ones like youtube
[01:52] <chomwitt_> well in that case the default browser should change from canonical
[01:52] <chomwitt_> i mean it's supposed to be user friendly dist
[01:54] <OerHeks> there is a default browser , all firefox chrome chromium needs to be downloaded.
[01:54] <daftykins> chomwitt_: here isn't a place for your ideas i'm afraid :)
[01:55] <chomwitt_> daftykins: i dont understand. i raise an issue that will 'hit' a new user accustomed to flash
[01:55] <daftykins> we're volunteers, we're not staff.
[01:55] <chomwitt_> daftykins: i see.
[01:55] <daftykins> this isn't a soapbox venue is all
[01:55] <Ben64> and flash is still in ubuntu, i don't see the problem
[01:56] <daftykins> chomwitt_: also this change is down to Adobe, complain to them.
[01:56] <Ben64> its just no longer being updated, and flash is hardly relevant anymore
[01:57] <chomwitt_> as i said ... i spoke of a problem a new user would experience,, thats all.
[01:57] <OerHeks> the metapackage restricted-extras covers all webplugins and codecs fonts and such.
[02:16] <AmazonianDude> Hey, if I'm trying to transfer smartphone photos, what PTP software to use on Kubuntu?
[02:17] <somsip> AmazonianDude: ESExplorer on Android and Samba on Ubuntu here.
[02:19] <AmazonianDude> Samba?
[02:19] <somsip> AmazonianDude: Windows-style sharing
[02:21] <AmazonianDude> How do I use Samba?
[02:22] <somsip> AmazonianDude: loads of guides here. Might help you to look for something Android->Ubuntu specific if that's your only use case though https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba
[02:23] <AmazonianDude> Haha wait. gMTP. Duh
[02:23] <desmond> Hey guys, what's a good management tool for qemu?
[02:24] <AmazonianDude> Would gMTP work too?
[02:25] <somsip> AmazonianDude: never heard of it
[02:26] <compdoc> desmond, virt-manager?
[02:27] <AmazonianDude> somsip: gMTP works. It's suppose to be for transferring files from an MP3 Player but it works the same for a phone obvs.
[02:27] <somsip> k
[02:27] <desmond> is qemu-launcher outdated?
[02:28] <desmond> it assumes my qemu executable is /usr/bin/qemu which is not the case
[02:29] <desmond> the ubuntu wiki page was last updated in 2011... ugh
[02:29] <wilhelmm> I need some help getting the X error log from a terminal
[02:29] <daftykins> desmond: it's ok, you can edit it :D
[02:29] <daftykins> wilhelmm: getting it? pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:31] <wilhelmm> daftykins: oh, it is working now
[02:31]  * wilhelmm checks log
[02:31] <daftykins> o0
[02:31] <wilhelmm> irssi I mean, it previously did not show replies
[02:35] <wilhelmm> daftykins: I ran Xorg -configure then startx twice and everything is working
[02:35] <wilhelmm> thanks for your help! not sure what the original problem was
[02:38] <daftykins> wilhelmm: you shouldn't use startx

[02:42] <jdfskitz> Does anybody know how to get the Adobe CC Suite on Xubuntu?
[02:42] <Guest3756> I'm using nvidia-331
[02:42] <wilhelmm> daftykins: what do you recommend?
[02:43] <Guest36454> هل يوجد احد هنا يتحدث العربيه
[02:43] <daftykins> wilhelmm: "sudo service lightdm start/stop/restart"
[02:43] <somsip> !farsi | Guest36454
[02:43] <daftykins> jdfskitz: #winehq
[02:44] <jdfskitz> daftykins: I'll take another look :\ Thank you
[02:44] <wilhelmm> daftykins: I am ignorant of the problems attached to startx
[02:44] <daftykins> not anymore! :D
[02:44] <wilhelmm> daftykins: may I know why startx is less preferred than starting lightdm?
[02:45] <daftykins> 'bad things can happen' is all i have for you
[02:45] <jdfskitz> daftykins: I managed to be able to get the trial download, hopefully it will allow me to login and continue.
[02:45] <jdfskitz> daftykins: the adobe website will not allow me to download the application for some stupid reason.
[02:46] <daftykins> jdfskitz: sorry but this is a WINE query, not truly relevant here. read wine's app compatibility database and join their channel. i have no interest what works and what doesn't
[02:46] <jdfskitz> daftykins: Lol, I still appreciate the help.
[02:46] <jdfskitz> daftykins: Thank you again
[02:47] <Bashing-om> wilhelmm: givello: ubuntu is setup to work with a *dm and not startx. even if all other distros are ment to run with startx ubuntu is still setup to use a *dm. (< k1l>
[02:49] <wilhelmm> Bashing-om: thank you for the insight, I'm interested in finding out the difference between the two
[02:51] <Bashing-om> wilhelmm: What DE are you running ? take a look at what starts the desktop GUI (scripts) .
[02:53] <desmond> so I have partitions on my system that is automatically mounted in ubuntu. How can I change the default permissions of them?
[02:53] <wilhelmm> Bashing-om: LightDM, where is the start up script found?
[02:53] <desmond> I have an .iso in one of my mounted partitions, and virt-manager can't access it
[02:55] <Bashing-om> wilhelmm: See if you have this file : ->  ls -al/usr/bin/startx ( likely not ) or ls -al /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf <- .
[02:55] <EriC^^> wilhelmm: /etc/init/lightdm.conf
[02:56] <EriC^^> wilhelmm: it apparently executes lightdm, can but lightdm starts the xserver i dont know
[02:56] <EriC^^> wilhelmm: i'm interested as well
[02:57] <EriC^^> *but how
[02:58] <EriC^^> wilhelmm: looks like it's not a script, i guess you'd have to look at the source code
[03:01] <EriC^^> wilhelmm: maybe other parts of the de are integrated with lightdm
[03:02] <Bashing-om> wilhelmm: EriC^^ : see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM/ . And we see what we can learn .
[03:02] <EriC^^> so even if it logs in fine, it wont have setup certain environment variables and what not
[03:02] <EriC^^> *even if startx logs in fine
[03:03] <`bazhang> hi ... how do you make Ubuntu fullscreen in VirtualBox?
[03:05] <daftykins> install the guest additions, set the resolution the same as your screen resolution then hit full screen
[03:05] <wilhelmm> EriC^^: useful thanks!
[03:06] <wilhelmm> EriC^^: what is the name of the login screen package?
[03:06] <EriC^^> lightdm
[03:06] <Bashing-om> wilhelmm: See if you have this file, please, -> ls -al /etc/gdm/gdm.conf <- .
[03:06] <EriC^^> wilhelmm: if you want a quick look at it type strings `which lightdm`
[03:07] <EriC^^> apt-get source lightdm should get the source for it i guess
[03:08] <wilhelmm> Bashing-om: no, I don't think gdm is installed
[03:09] <desmond> I'm just going to use fstab and hopefully that overrides the auto mount
[03:46] <sidBitla> hello

[04:49] <roracle> Merry Christmas everyone!  My gift for you is an issue I've been having.  All the docs I found and forums online don't help me in _any_ way at all.  I have no way to connect this system to the internet (the wired doesn't seem to work in this hotel) and I need to connect.  I'm using the Qualcom Atheros 242x/542x Wireless Network Adapter.  It doesn't seem to work at all, and there is no help anywhere on this (but plenty of old info th
[04:51] <roracle> I read in a 2011 forum that they were integrating madwifi into the official distro of Ubuntu, and it makes sense as it's hard to find current info on this issue.  Regardless, I'm still not able to see any wifi connections, no matter what I do.
[04:53] <awesomerobot> so this is driving me insane... I just did a fresh install of 14.04, I was previously running 14.04 on the same hardware. I'm trying to get transmission-daemon up and running and saving files to an external drive (/media/media/torrents) but I keep getting "Permission denied" when I add a new torrent to the web interface... I've changed the group/ow
[04:53] <awesomerobot> nership of the drive, and even tried changing to USER=root in /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon, and still 'permission denied'
[04:56] <arun> guys, what does this mean "Add all app work on microcontroller"
[05:01] <cfhowlett> roracle, I remember trying to kludge an atheros wifi USB ... ONCE.  It was a whole lot easier to just replace it with a more supported brand ... and USB wifi's are cheap.
[05:03] <arun> guys, what does this mean "Add all app work on microcontroller"
[05:20] <roracle> cfhowlett: i understand, and i usually suggest that, but this is my mom's laptop, and she doesn't want extra crap hanging off it when she has a tablet that works fine right next to her, but she really needs to be able to use the laptop as well
[05:21] <findme> roracle, lubuntu
[05:21] <cfhowlett> roracle, make / model?
[05:21] <roracle> HP G60-235DX
[05:22] <cfhowlett> roracle, wait 1
[05:23] <Nightman> hello
[05:23] <Nightman> wow I haven't been to a chat in like forever
[05:24] <Nightman> anyone here?
[05:24] <cfhowlett> !ask | Nightman,
[05:26] <Kow> Any pros here with disk partitioning and grub? I am attemping to boot a DOS floppy image from grub. It boots fine, but DOS only sees the first FAT32 partition. I tried hiding it using parttool in grub2 but all it did was hide the only filesystem that DOS was seeing (so now I have no C:)
[05:27] <Kow> I'm not sure if this is a DOS question/issue or grub2. I'm thinking it's DOS but I may be able to utilize grub to get around it
[05:27] <Kow> Actually, I know the issue is DOS because the floppy image is located on the FAT32 partition that I want DOS to see, but it still doesnt see it.
[05:28] <roracle> cfhowlett: fyi, I tried installing various 14.10 flavors, so IDK if it not being LTS is an issue.  I can't understand why past versions people say "it worked flawlessly" and current versions "it doesn't work at all".  I'm close to just throwing Windows back on there, but I'd rather not if I don't have to, ya know?
[05:28] <bubbasaures> Kow, The grub manual is online, I would check there on dos to start with.
[05:28] <cfhowlett> roracle, replace the wifi chip.  should be easy.
[05:28] <Kow> bubbasaures: been there done that
[05:29] <bubbasaures> Kow, cool
[05:30] <citizen> Kubuntu 14.04. Just installed TV Tuner Card. Need information on how to get Kubuntu to recognize it...
[05:30] <Kow> drive layout: (hd0,msdos1) is FAT32, (hd0,msdos2) is NTFS, (hd0,msdos3) is FAT32. the floppy image is on msdos3, I want DOS to see only msdos3.
[05:31] <Kow> I did parttool (hd0,msdos1) hidden+, parttool (hd0,msdos2) hidden+, parttool (hd0,msdos3) hidden- but DOS doesn't see anything then (except for it's own image mounted as A:)
[05:31] <Nightman> I have issues. I got two OS but not a dual boot which is what I intended, I need to use Boot Manager to change OS or the BIOS for default boot OS but I don't get an option to change OS at boot up or anywhere at all. Maybe I will reinstall Ubuntu again and create a Swap partition first, I need to find out how to get the OS option at boot up.
[05:31] <Kow> I thought maybe the NTFS partition at msdos2 was throwing it off, but the fact that I hid it shouldn't affect it at all.
[05:32] <cfhowlett> !dualboot | nightfly
[05:32] <cfhowlett> !dualboot | nightman sorry nightfly
[05:32] <Kow> oh...
[05:32] <Kow> hmm I know DOS has quite the limitations on filesystem sizes
[05:33] <Kow> A hackish fix would be to list the 3rd partition first in the partition table. that is just ugly though
[05:34] <DouglasK> So, I'm having trouble with IPV6 via DHCP on Ubuntu.  The router (openwrt) is getting an address from my 6-in-4 tunnel no prob, but the dhcp6 isn't handing out an address to the client machine (ubuntu 14.10).  Not sure which side the issue is on.
[05:36] <DouglasK> Wondering if anyone has ideas on what to check to make sure Ubuntu is requesting an ipv6 addy via dhcp.
[05:40] <jrg> plasmasnake: trying this ubuntu install on the tf101 now heh
[05:40] <jrg> FUN FUN!
[05:51] <lotuspsychje> merry xmass to all

[05:53] <lotuspsychje> shiggitay: tnx mate
[05:53] <shiggitay> te st
[05:53] <shiggitay> test
[05:53] <shiggitay> ok odd
[05:55] <rosx> hello. I made an Thunderbird account with a private mail-server address in the past. Now for unknown reasons all linux distributions I install know that address. What the hell is this behavior? It is against state law to transfer such data from the distribution to distributer!
[05:55] <cfhowlett> rosx, as you know doubt know, ubuntu is stateless ...
[05:55] <rosx> No I don't know of it.
[05:56] <rosx> They have to comply to law just as everyone else has to.
[05:57] <cfhowlett> rosx, before you go into full froth, YOU are importing account information.  it is NOT transferring without your explicit action and consent.
[05:59] <rosx> cfhowlett... Well the Adress is drawn with a E-Mail Domain. I remember this didn't happen when I had to configure the E-Mail-Account the first time with thunderbird on a linux distro.
[05:59] <cfhowlett> rosx,  in other words... it pulled the account information YOU provided
[05:59] <rosx> cfhowlett: I assume it does so.
[06:00] <rosx> cfhowlett: Another possibility would be it fetches the information from the domain's server. But I am not aware of such a procedure/protocol
[06:01] <cfhowlett> rosx, again, it can
[06:01] <rosx> cfhowlett: It can what exactly?
[06:01] <cfhowlett> rosx, it does NOTHING without your input.  PROOF?  get an ubuntu live CD/USB.  start from that.  now: get email ... you wont' be able to until you authorize and establiish accounts
[06:03] <rosx> cfhowlett: I don't know the source of the information for the account data, so I can't tell if ubuntu uses unlawfull procedure.
[06:04] <cfhowlett> rosx, do the test I described above and you'll know.
[06:05] <rosx> cfhowlett: I am not sure if you are with me. The problem at hand is server information beeing shown WITHOUT my direct input. And i have no clue where that information is coming from. I reinstalled distros several times since i first input that data.
[06:05] <rosx> so the data almost surely doesn't come from my local harddrive.
[06:06] <cfhowlett> rosx, YOU set up a user account.   you provided an email address ...
[06:06] <cfhowlett> rosx, correct it is NOT on the HDD.
[06:06] <rosx> well a few distro iterations earlier.
[06:07] <rosx> cfhowlett. ubuntu should not be able to tell who I am. So the data would be publicly available from an ubuntu server now.
[06:07] <cfhowlett> rosx, then stop TELLING ubuntu who you are.  Use a different email account.
[06:08] <rosx> cfhowlett: This is not possible. Why on earth did ubuntu get the means to keep data like the one at hand?
[06:08] <cfhowlett> rosx it doesn't.
[06:08] <ivorybishop> wow
[06:08] <cfhowlett> rosx, *ALL* of the information you see comes/came from YOU
[06:09] <rosx> okay. So what is happening there?
[06:09] <ivorybishop> Ubuntu cannot read minds.
[06:09] <ivorybishop> my bad. I'll stay out of this conv
[06:09] <rosx> cfhowlett: well if it came from me it does not come from me anymore.
[06:09] <rosx> cfhowlett: someone else is providing the information now.
[06:09] <cfhowlett> rosx, false.  absolutely false.
[06:10] <cfhowlett> rosx but I won't confuse with fact.  here's the cure >>> make a virginal email account.
[06:10] <cfhowlett> rosx, deactivate, unlink and remove the non-desired account.
[06:10] <rosx> cfhowlett: So i once input server data, which now shows up "automatically" in a procedure that tells: "querrying ubuntu database" or something alike... And i should not be worried about unlawfull behavior?
[06:11] <nafg_> rosx are you worried about the law or are you worried about your privacy?
[06:11] <cfhowlett> rosx, not a cop.  if you're convinced that you've been legally violated, get a laywer.
[06:11] <cfhowlett> *lawyer*
[06:11] <rosx> cfhowlett: how hard is it to understand that i can't dump the domain and the associated server information?
[06:11] <rosx> nafg_: it's practically the same in this case
[06:11] <cfhowlett> rosx, who provided that info?  YOU DID
[06:12] <nafg_> that doesn't change the question
[06:12] <rosx> cfhowlett: I never authorized the data to be held on a ubuntu server.
[06:13] <rosx> nafg_: I don't worry about the law. The law is. In this case i have trouble with ubuntu and it's seemingly unlawful behavior.
[06:13] <nafg_> you mean you have trouble with your privacy?
[06:13] <cfhowlett> rosx, you authorized information retention ...
[06:13] <nafg_> are you trying to be a cop, or a victim?
[06:14] <rosx> cfhowlett: I never did.
[06:14] <rosx> cfhowlett: I don't remember a form that asked something like "Do you allow to transfer this data to a ubuntu server" or something alike anyways...
[06:15] <cfhowlett> rosx, " ... don't remember ..."
[06:15] <rosx> cfhowlett: that's what i said.
[06:16] <rosx> cfhowlett: does or did thunderbird do this?
[06:16] <cfhowlett> rosx, thunderbird is not an ubuntu project or product.  ask mozilla
[06:17] <brainacid> Hello
[06:17] <rosx> the one installed on ubuntu should be maintained by ubuntu devs should it not?
[06:17] <brainacid> I tried nmi_watchdog=0 in /etc/defaults/grub and ran update-grub as sudo
[06:17] <cfhowlett> rosx, seriously?
[06:17] <rosx> cfhowlett, yeah
[06:17] <cfhowlett> rosx, no.
[06:17] <rosx> apt-cache says so
[06:17] <brainacid> trying to tunr off watchdog
[06:17] <brainacid> ubuntu 14.04
[06:18] <cfhowlett> rosx, apt-cache also provides maintainer info.  ask them.
[06:18] <rosx> cfhowlett: how can i remove the entry from the ubuntu database?
[06:18] <cfhowlett> rosx, ask the maintainer.
[06:18] <rosx> cfhowlett: okay so I'll ask them that then.
[06:19] <rosx> cfhowlett: thank you for your help then.
[06:20] <cfhowlett> rosx best of luck to you and happy holidays.

[06:45] <raju> is there any way around to see what is my RAM type DDR or DDR2
[06:45] <raju> here is the output
[06:45] <raju> http://pastebin.mozilla.org/8124693
[06:46] <jrg> well. this isn't working out like i thought it would
[06:58] <selig5> raju: when I ran the 'lshw -short -C memory' command on my iMac it shows that it has ddr2, so I guess you have just ddr
[06:59] <raju> If I would have ddr then it should have shown me that
[06:59] <raju> but its just showing DRAM and as I remembered my lap RAM is ddr2
[06:59] <raju> I just wanna make sure one more time before buying
[07:02] <selig5> raju: you should find out the part number of your motherboard before ordering ram
[07:02] <raju> yeah

[08:20] <Djfnndmwmd> People, I have an issue with booting Ubuntu from a usb on a Mac using grub. I was working, then when I reinstalled the computer it stopped working. Any help?
[08:26] <brainproxy> is there a way of using wget or alt. tool which can do the equiv of `wget --mirror --no-parent ...` but perform parallel downloads?

[08:35] <APV> Updated to 14.04 from 12.04 and everything is laggy now. Used proprietary driver before, but radeon HD 3200 is not supported anymore. It said that open source driver should be almost as good. What to do?
[08:35] <ikonia> use the open source driver ?
[08:36] <ikonia> find out what propritary drive is suppored on 14.04 and see if it supports your card ?
[08:36] <APV> Proprietary is not supported.
[08:36] <APV> Open source fully supports HD3200
[08:36] <ikonia> you're saying there is no amd propritary drivers on 14.04 at all ?
[08:37] <APV> It supports only HD5000 and later.
[08:37] <ikonia> ah, none that support your card
[08:37] <ikonia> ok, so use the open source driver
[08:37] <APV> I have HD3200.
[08:37] <APV> How do I use it? Is it not already on by default?
[08:37] <ikonia> check your xorg configuration/logs to see what it's using
[08:38] <ikonia> if you've done an upgrade from the propitary driver on 12.04, chances are you have an xorg.conf which is now miss-configured for a nonexistant driver and it's falling back to vesa/fail safe
[08:38] <ikonia> hence poor performanc

[08:39] <APV> Hm, fglrx is not installed.

[08:41] <ikonia> and ?
[08:41] <APV> No output, no change in perfomance.
[08:41] <APV> performance*
[08:41] <ikonia> why would that change anything
[08:42] <APV> How do you fix the misconfigured xorg, then?
[08:42] <ikonia> try what I suggested
[08:42] <ikonia> I did give a reasonable ammount of detail
[08:45] <APV> Not sure if I did it correctly.
[08:45] <APV> server glx vendor string: SGI
[08:45] <APV> client glx vendor string: Mesa Project and SGI
[08:45] <APV> OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc.
[08:45] <ikonia> vmware ?
[08:45] <ikonia> not sure what you're actually quoting to me ? is that lines from a log ?
[08:46] <APV> Yes. That is output from "glxinfo | grep -i vendor"
[08:47] <ikonia> ok, I'm going to stop now because you keep ignoring what I've suggested and doing other things
[08:47] <ikonia> good luck
[08:56] <APV> ikonia, sorry, tried my best to "check your xorg configuration/logs to see what it's using". This was your suggestion, right?

[09:28] <TheHackOps> Is the spyware in ubuntu built into the Unity desktop or deeper in the distro, basically if i remove unity and just use classic gnome
[09:28] <TheHackOps> Will i still be used as a marketing tool
[09:28] <trijntje> TheHackOps: no, there is spyware everywhere in ubuntu, run while you can
[09:29] <trijntje> also, be sure to remove the malicious software known as 'firefox', which sends information you type to the internet and even google
[09:29] <TheHackOps> trijntje, Lol Its far to late been using since about version 7

[09:30] <TheHackOps> trijntje, Honestly Ill probably just go back to gnome classic, It has a special place in my heart anyway
[09:32] <esvee> Hi all. Small question: I'm connecting through SSH to an ubuntu machine, and running a program that spawns a few windows. When running locally, I can see the windows pop up, but through ssh, nothing is shown. I assume it has to do with the way X11 works. (Clarification: I don't want forwarding, I just want the windows to show as if it was a normal execution from the native gui)
[09:33] <TheHackOps> esvee, SSH terminal?
[09:33] <TheHackOps> or SSH remote desktop
[09:33] <esvee> let's say PUTTY
[09:34] <TheHackOps> So a shell
[09:34] <esvee> yes
[09:34] <TheHackOps> Why would you expect to see a window popup in your shell
[09:34] <esvee> i don't
[09:34] <TheHackOps> Oh you mean they dont popup on your local machine when run over SSH
[09:35] <esvee> they don't pop up on the _remote_ machine
[09:35] <TheHackOps> Yes sorry
[09:35] <esvee> :)
[09:35] <TheHackOps> Does the process spawn?
[09:35] <esvee> yes
[09:35] <esvee> i'm using 'screen' and i can see it running
[09:35] <esvee> but no windows are shown
[09:36] <esvee> i assume i have to tell it to "forward" the screen to the window manager
[09:36] <esvee> but at this point my knowledge ends :)
[09:37] <TheHackOps> You need to do DISPLAY
[09:37] <TheHackOps> and pass the address of your display in
[09:37] <TheHackOps> probably 0
[09:37] <TheHackOps> DISPLAY=:0.0 application params
[09:38] <esvee> sweet! thank you very much, testing it right away
[09:38] <TheHackOps> Dont know if that still works
[09:38] <esvee> let's find out...
[09:39] <jasonjckn> i'm stuck in full screen tux racer

[09:42] <TheHackOps> Why dont you just hard reset computer?
[09:42] <TheHackOps> esvee, No problems
[09:42] <jasonjckn> sure.. i just thought there was an solution for this
[09:42] <TheHackOps> Not if its 100% locked up
[09:43] <jasonjckn> the desktop isn't
[09:43] <jasonjckn> just the app is stuck in full screen
[09:43] <TheHackOps> Kill xorg
[09:43] <TheHackOps> Probably crashed
[09:43] <jasonjckn> command?
[09:43] <TheHackOps> Right Alt + Print Screen + K.
[09:44] <jasonjckn> hmmm that just caused a reboot
[09:44] <jasonjckn> oh well

[10:19] <nomadist> hi!
[10:20] <nomadist> hi
[10:21] <nomadist> would anyone know what the red on black bacground for a symlink indicates?
[10:21] <nomadist> its this particular color where I'm also having trouble: http://i.imgur.com/bC1nsqi.png
[10:23] <theadmin> nomadist: I assume that means the link is broken.
[10:23] <theadmin> That is, it points to a non-existent file or directory.
[10:23] <nomadist> there is a file called /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/jswebkit.so
[10:24] <theadmin> Right, but it doesn't point to that.
[10:24] <nomadist> hmm
[10:24] <theadmin> It points to /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/jswebkit.
[10:24] <theadmin> Which is not the same thing, the extension does matter.
[10:25] <nomadist> i see. let me investigate this. thanks
[10:25] <nomadist> theadmin,
[10:27] <Novice201y> Hi. Where can I find tasks to do as a volunteer Ubuntu sysadmin?

[10:38] <tiny_coyote> anyone, i am trying to install ubuntu but i can't access the bios setup
[10:39] <Novice201y> tiny_coyote, How You try to do this?
[10:40] <tiny_coyote> Novice201y, i press the bios setup key on the startup
[10:40] <nomadist> hi
[10:40] <Novice201y> tiny_coyote, Which one and what happens?
[10:41] <nomadist> I am trying to run a spider on a vps (using scrapyjs which uses python-gtk2). On running the spider I am getting the error "/root/myporj/venv/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:57: GtkWarning: could not open display"
[10:41] <nomadist> so how would I run this in a non-graphical thingy?
[10:41] <tiny_coyote> Novice201y, i am using Lenovo u410 and the default key for bios is Fn + F2 so i press it but nothing happen
[10:42] <Novice201y> tiny_coyote, Are You sure that it's not just F2, without +Fn?
[10:42] <nomadist> (btw I believe this gtk stuff is for webkit which is needed to render javascript) but running locally on laptop I don't see any windows or anything pop up
[10:43] <tiny_coyote> Novice201y, i also tried F2 without Fn but it didn't work too. There is also one problem. Usually there is a message to press which key to enter bios but now i can't see it.
[10:46] <Novice201y> tiny_coyote, It may be solved with BIOS update: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/IdeaPad-Y-and-U-series-Laptops/U410-Cannot-access-to-BIOS/ta-p/1406743
[10:48] <tiny_coyote> Novice201y, that only works for those running windows, right? but i am on linux mint

[11:31] <dionysus69> cfhowlett: meaning, you know it exists you dont know how to do it ?
[11:31] <theadmin> dionysus69: Uh, hibernate?
[11:32] <cfhowlett> dionysus69, right.  xubuntu studio is different from unity in that way

[11:48] <Novice201y> Is there telephone support for Ubuntu?
[11:49] <bazhang> !touch | Novice201y
[11:50] <Novice201y> bazhang, I mean - is there callcentre for Ubuntu desktop support?
[11:50] <enchilado> bazhang: I think they were asking whether you could call to get support
[11:50] <cfhowlett> Novice201y, canonical ... paid
[11:50] <Novice201y> cfhowlett, OK, I cannot find url for this
[11:51] <cfhowlett> Novice201y, wait 1
[11:51] <Martijn-NL> Hi everyone - I have a problem. Something blocked an incomming request to my Ubuntu machine. Is there a log or something like that so I can recognise the cause of this problem. It occurs only by requests from outside my network, but it has worked untill a few days ago. I'm searching for a solution for hours now. Anyone?
[11:53] <totesmuhgoats> Martijn-NL, you could try checking /var/syslog
[11:53] <totesmuhgoats> if you are behind a router or something that could also be responsible
[11:55] <Martijn-NL> totesmuhgoats: Thanks. I will have look. Keep you posted.
[11:55] <Martijn-NL> totesmuhgoats: The router is not blocking the requested. I have tested this on another machine.
[11:56] <cfhowlett> Novice201y, note: paid support from canonical is intended for enterprise custommers:  http://www.canonical.com/services
[11:56] <totesmuhgoats> Martijn-NL, a lot of programs also define what interfaces they listen for things on, for instance mysql by default will only listen on localhost
[11:56] <totesmuhgoats> anyway, it's 4am here and i'm very tired so i'm gonna get off to bed
[11:57] <Azjo> how do i force google chrome to search on google.com rather than my local area?
[11:57] <totesmuhgoats> good luck Martijn-NL , if you don't manage to figure it out i'll be back tomorrow, but i figure somebody will have helped you out before then
[11:59] <Novice201y> cfhowlett, Sorry I got disconnected.

[11:59] <lous_> Hello. I'm new around here, please excuse me if I'm not asking at the right place: I'd be looking for technical help (with the setup of a bluetooth speaker on xubuntu).
[11:59] <Novice201y> cfhowlett, And You said that there is also for home users?
[12:00] <cfhowlett> Novice201y, no, that's why I specified "enterprise".  for home users, I'd suggest checking in with your local linux/ubuntu user group
[12:09] <TheHackOps> lous_, And what exactly do you need help wwith
[12:12] <lous_> Hei, TheHackOps: I'm trying to use a Bose Soundlink Mini on my PC. In my first attempt, I managed to successfully pair the device but not to send sound to it. After a few attempts to cure the problem from looking on the net, I removed the device to restart from scratch... and it is now not even discovered anymore when scanning. I'm left quite clueless about what to try.
[12:12] <MonkeyDust> lous_  have you tried blueman? (bluetooth manager)
[12:13] <frozenrain> hi  everyone,merry christmas
[12:13] <TheHackOps> lous_, Probably dont cry
[12:13] <lous_> Yes, it's the tool that worked (partially) the first time.
[12:13] <TheHackOps> lous_, Does it require its own driver?
[12:15] <lous_> I saw no mention of that in the manual and the device didn't come with a CD, so I'm going to bet it doesn't.
[12:16] <bazhang> http://askubuntu.com/questions/453125/how-to-get-bose-soundlink-mini-bluetooth-working have a look lous_
[12:17] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1446615 and this thread lous_
[12:18] <lous_> *checks* I tried this one already, unfortunately without success (I restored the /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf to its initial state, then).
[12:19] <lous_> *checks the second link* Aaaand, the "hcitool scan" worked fine for a while, but it now finds no device at all (and I am not forgetting to set the device in association-ready mode).
[12:20] <MonkeyDust> lous_  does any other bluetooth device work, can you check somehow?
[12:22] <lous_> MonkeyDust: this is the first bluetooth device I get, unfortunately I have no other I could try...
[12:28] <tiblock> Hi. I trying to remove package called "mongodb" i did "apt-get purge mongodb", "apt-get autoremove" but i still have lots of files and folders contain "mongodb" in name and it uses lots of space. How i can completely remove package from system?
[12:29] <jatt> tiblock: sudo dpkg --purge remove mongodb
[12:30] <tiblock> jatt, it says "there's no installed package matching mongodb" and still uses space
[12:30] <Ben64> tiblock: space where, how much
[12:30] <tiblock> Ben64, i see /var/lib/mongodb that have 600mb and i have free 1gb on system
[12:31] <jatt> tiblock: sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mongodb
[12:31] <Ben64> ^ yeah if you absolutely don't need anything that is there
[12:31] <tiblock> jatt, so its safe to do that? Okay, thank you.
[12:31] <MonkeyDust> tiblock  try this     sudo aptitude purge '~c'
[12:33] <Ampelbein> MonkeyDust: That only purges packages which are still in status RC, but he already purged mongodb.
[12:37] <MonkeyDust> tiblock  http://linuxg.net/aptitude-trick-delete-the-packages-that-were-removed-but-not-purged/
[12:37] <tiblock> MonkeyDust, didnt helped with "/var/lib/mongodb" and "/var/log/mongodb" but removed config files named mongodb. i think i will fo rm -fr on that folders that remain
[12:39] <tiblock> Space now free. Thank you very much.

[13:34] <MonkeyDust> Voyage  did you have a question?
[13:34] <Giwrgaras> hi,how can i see disk space usage for my installed programs in ubuntu ?
[13:35] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  start with df -h
[13:35] <Giwrgaras> i use df-h
[13:35] <Giwrgaras> but i want to see specificaly how much each program uses
[13:36] <utsav> MonkeyDust: Then how to get rid of the black screen?
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> utsav  blacks screen during the boot process?
[13:37] <utsav> MonkeyDust: Not even able to right click, after boot... No wallpaper... only unity menu on left side...
[13:37] <EriC^^> Giwrgaras: programs are spread out in the file system in linux
[13:38] <Voyage> MonkeyDust Ya, I wanted to know the cause of this error
[13:38] <EriC^^> Giwrgaras: if you want to know how much it uses you can check the package info, apt-cache show <package> and look for the installed size
[13:38] <MonkeyDust> !details | Voyage
[13:39] <BluesKaj_> Giwrgaras, system monitor or htop can tell you how much active programs are using cpu and memnory
[13:39] <Voyage> MonkeyDust thats all the details I have
[13:39] <Voyage> MonkeyDust I gave you command and eror
[13:40] <Giwrgaras> i would like to check how much disk space each program is occupying for all the installled programs
[13:40] <MonkeyDust> Voyage  describe what you are doing, what goes wrong, at what point etc
[13:41] <utsav> MonkeyDust NO, not during boot process ...
[13:41] <EriC^^> Giwrgaras: du -h /usr/bin/*
[13:41] <EriC^^> Giwrgaras: that will list the binaries sizes..
[13:42] <BluesKaj_> Giwrgaras, that list would be too long to be practical
[13:43] <utsav> Where to find the .deb binaries that we download during the software center?
[13:43] <Giwrgaras> ok. A last question please: What is the easiest way to allocate more disk to Ubuntu? I've got dual boot with win 8
[13:43] <EriC^^> utsav: /var/cache/apt/archives
[13:43] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, boot into a live cd/usb.  fire up gparted.
[13:44] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  backup first, before you start changing partition sizes
[13:44] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, what MonkeyDust said ...
[13:44] <Giwrgaras> ll
[13:44] <Giwrgaras> ok thanks
[13:45] <utsav> EriC^^: thanks for help...
[13:45] <Giwrgaras> ill check a manual also
[13:46] <Giwrgaras> cant i use gparted inside ubuntu? like a windows disk manager tool?
[13:47] <gnu_d> Hi, how do I test a daemon in 12.04 without copying it to the daemons directory ?
[13:52] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  no, boot from a live cd or usb, then use gparted
[13:55] <Giwrgaras> so i load the live cd which i used to isntall my ubuntu and i click next until i find the gparted ?
[13:57] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  no, boo from the cd, but don't install, use a live session
[13:57] <MonkeyDust> boot*
[13:57] <Giwrgaras> what do you mean by live session?
[13:58] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, repartioning the system while it's booted *will* break it
[13:58] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  "try ubuntu"
[13:58] <Giwrgaras> ah so
[13:58] <Giwrgaras> afterwards i will see the Gparted option?
[13:58] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  repeat: backup first
[13:59] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, "afterwards"??? after WHAT??? slow down and make sure you know exactly what you're doing.
[14:00] <Giwrgaras> i meant if there are other options that i should be aware off
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> Giwrgaras  once in the live session, you'll find gparted
[14:02] <Giwrgaras> in the "try ubuntu" option ok. Then the allocation tool is like the one i used to install ubuntu? Is it easy to use?
[14:03] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, very.  so easy, you can crash things ... thus the multiple warnings ...
[14:04] <Giwrgaras> cfhowlett: yes i am aware of that. I have crashed my ubuntu numerous times in the past...
[14:05] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, "with great power ..."
[14:05] <Seveas> cfhowlett: comes great corruption :)
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> Seveas  cynic...
[14:08] <Giwrgaras> and speaking of backups. What is the best way to backup my system configuration ? With the Dejavu tool?
[14:08] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, backup your data.  How much do you have?
[14:08] <MonkeyDust> !backup
[14:09] <Seveas> MonkeyDust: I prefer 'realist' :)
[14:10] <Voyage> my server shuts down so often. It has low ram. How can I make big swap (for atleast it wont shutdown)
[14:10] <Voyage> ?
[14:10] <Seveas> Voyage: how do you know the shutdows are because of low memory?
[14:10] <Giwrgaras> Some gb but ive got everything  allready in backup multiple times. I just want a load file for my system settings
[14:11] <Voyage> Seveas it has 128 ram
[14:11] <Seveas> 128MB? How old is the POS? :)
[14:12] <Voyage> Seveas 107.8 MB of 128 MB Used / 20.2 MB Free
[14:14] <Seveas> Voyage: time to give yourself a christmas gift: a new computer.
[14:15] <MonkeyDust> Voyage  what do you intend to do with that pc?

[14:21] <wopi> hi, can somebody tell me how I can run "Cadillac and Dinosaurs" with mame ?
[14:22] <wopi> I got an error message when try running this game about missing rom or chd files
[14:22] <MonkeyDust> wopi  is that a game?
[14:22] <wopi> yes
[14:22] <wopi> a very old one
[14:22] <cfhowlett> wopi does it state linux support???
[14:23] <wopi> I played it with mame few years ago on Linux
[14:23] <marshal0505> wopi: You need to locate the original chd file of the game.
[14:23] <cfhowlett> wopi, who's mame??
[14:24] <marshal0505> wopi: see http://www.mameworld.info/easyemu/mameguide/mameguide-roms.html
[14:24] <Seveas> Voyage: I strongly doubt whether 128mb will be enough for that.
[14:24] <Seveas> cfhowlett: arcade emulator
[14:24] <cfhowlett> Seveas, ah!  thanks
[14:25] <wopi> My problem is, I know I'm missing some data, either BIOS rom for the console or some game data itself, but unsure what exaclty is missing and how at least debug what I need
[14:25] <marshal0505> wopi: I'd google for it
[14:25] <marshal0505> wopi: This is not the place for mame support
[14:26] <wopi> ok
[14:27] <Seveas> Voyage: I jut looked at that application a bit, and you'll need a *lot* more memory than 128mb.
[14:27] <YamakasY> uhm, SSHA != SSHA1 ?
[14:29] <Seveas> YamakasY: ssha is seeded sha1

[14:33] <ikonia> swapon -s
[14:33] <Voyage> Seveas how much ram do I know
[14:33] <ikonia> will show you if you have swap space currently active
[14:33] <Voyage> ikonia that says ./dev/null                               partition       65536   0       -1
[14:34] <Voyage> ikonia what does that means
[14:34] <YamakasY> Seveas: I'm testing some ldap auth plugin for windows, pgina
[14:34] <YamakasY> and they talk about SSHA1 there but my ldap says SSHA
[14:34] <Seveas> YamakasY: ask in a windows channel then.
[14:35] <ikonia> Voyage: please type the following command pastebin the exact output please "sudo swapon -s"
[14:35] <Seveas> Voyage: in all reality you will need a new computer. Anything old enough to only have 128mb, won't have the needed processing power either.
[14:35] <ikonia> ahhhh
[14:35] <ikonia> 128mb of ram....
[14:35] <Seveas> ikonia: don't bother. He wants to put a CRM on a toaster. It's not going to work.
[14:35] <cfhowlett> Seveas, but lubuntu is optimized for older hardware so ....
[14:35] <ikonia> agreed
[14:35] <cfhowlett> !lubuntu | Seveas
[14:36] <Seveas> cfhowlett: yes, but did you see what he wants to put on it?
[14:36] <ikonia> cfhowlett: not that old.....
[14:36] <cfhowlett> Seveas, nope.  missed it.
[14:36] <Seveas> and also, 128mb is mid-90's. Not even lubuntu will run nicely.
[14:37] <Voyage> ikonia I think I have swap of 64mb. http://pastie.org/9798492 How can I enlarge it?
[14:37] <ikonia> Voyage: you're wasting your time
[14:37] <Seveas> Voyage: by buying a new computer.
[14:37] <Voyage> ikonia wasting? how
[14:38] <ikonia> Voyage: your hardware is too old to do what you want
[14:38] <Voyage> ikonia I understand. but its christmas and I wont get support for the host. can you tell me how to increase swap?
[14:38] <ikonia> no
[14:38] <ikonia> if you understand, you'll stop asking/wasting your time
[14:39] <Seveas> and ours :)
[14:39] <YamakasY> Seveas: nah they don't know shit about hashes :D
[14:39] <YamakasY> Seveas: I'm an Ubuntu user with 300 servers :D
[14:39] <Seveas> YamakasY: that's no excuse to ask windows questions in here.
[14:39] <ikonia> YamakasY: an no excuse for random bad language
[14:40] <Seveas> I'm a CentOS user with 10000+ servers, I don't ask CentOS questions in here either :)

[15:06] <SerjVtankE> Hey guys, my Wi-Fi adapter RT2870USB (ID 148f: 3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870 / RT3070 Wireless Adapter) on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS does not work consistently (the speed drops, packet loss, etc.). Is there a solution to this problem?
[15:09] <DarkAceZ> how do I undo a mount --bind?
[15:09] <compdoc> umount doest work?
[15:18] <DarkAceZ> compdoc: umount media/user/Ubuntu/usr/bin did not work, no
[15:19] <DarkAceZ> $ sudo mount --unbind /usr/bin /media/justin/Ubuntu/usr/bin/
[15:19] <DarkAceZ> was the original bind command
[15:19] <DarkAceZ> I cannot get it to unmount
[15:19] <ikonia> DarkAceZ: sudo umount /media/justin/Ubuntu/usr/bin
[15:19] <dawson> anyone familiar with installing the logitech gaming software to ubuntu?
[15:20] <ikonia> dawson: isn't that windows only ?
[15:20] <dawson> well it is
[15:20] <dawson> but the thing is ubuntu can do windows programs to
[15:20] <ikonia> dawson: no it can't
[15:20] <dawson> ive done it with curse client and it works fine
[15:20] <cfhowlett> !steam | dawson,
[15:20] <DarkAceZ> ah, thanks ikonia, apparently I added an extra slash at the end last time I tried it
[15:20] <ikonia> dawson: wine can attempt to do some windows programs, but it is not usable for drivers and the like
[15:20] <dawson> no no no
[15:20] <dawson> not for a driver :D
[15:21] <dawson> i mean for the gaming software for the g-keys
[15:21] <dawson> like to program them
[15:21] <ikonia> right, they are drivers
[15:21] <dawson> really/
[15:21] <cfhowlett> dawson, if the OEM doesn't support the hardware, there is no magic ubuntu genie ...
[15:21] <dawson> ...
[15:21] <ikonia> as they interact with the keyboard/joystick via the drier
[15:21] <ikonia> dawson: try it with wine, but I believe you will be dissapointed
[15:21] <dawson> id still like to try and can i get a link to the download site/
[15:22] <cfhowlett> dawson, I agree with ikonia.
[15:22] <ikonia> dawson: download site for what ?
[15:22] <dawson> the gaming software i got it though
[15:22] <dawson> ill be back it needs about 10 minutes
[15:23] <dawson> quick question
[15:24] <dawson> would a 64 bit windows thing work with my 64 bit pc?
[15:24] <dawson> pc with ubuntu on it i mean
[15:24] <ikonia> no, windows software is not designed for linux
[15:24] <dawson> youve said that already
[15:24] <ikonia> your only option is "wine" which is an emmulation layer, hence why direct hardware interaction does not work
[15:24] <ikonia> dawson: if I've said that already, why are you asking as I've given you the answer
[15:25] <dawson> k be helpful
[15:25] <dawson> asked one guy here to help me get curse client which isnt available for linux
[15:25] <ikonia> I am being helpful by giving you good information
[15:25] <dawson> and he still got me to get it
[15:26] <dawson> imma let it download
[15:27] <dawson> maybe see if someone else can help instead of saying the information instead of attempting
[15:27] <ikonia> I've given you information of the software that will do the emmulation for you
[15:27] <cfhowlett> dawson, dial back the attitude a bit.
[15:27] <ikonia> it's called "wine"
[15:27] <ikonia> you're welcome to try
[15:28] <dawson> im going to try wine
[15:28] <agratius> ciao
[15:28] <agratius> !list
[15:28] <dawson> im not a novice to ubuntu guys i just want installed right if it can be
[15:29] <dawson>  /msg ubottu !bot
[15:31] <ikonia> dawson: great, if you're not a novice you should be able to do what you want without any problems
[15:31] <dawson> yeah and you know what you should be able to do
[15:31] <dawson> is install most anything since your so helpful
[15:31] <dawson> 'helpful'
[15:32] <ikonia> dawson: what you just said makes no sense ?
[15:32] <dawson> im saying
[15:32] <cfhowlett> ikonia, /sarcasm/
[15:32] <dawson> that you should stop being a rump and be helpful instead of saying things
[15:32] <andreas_> isn't there a ubuntu-offtopic channel
[15:32] <cfhowlett> !ot | andreas_,
[15:32] <dawson> idk and idc
[15:33] <dawson> i really dont care if there is
[15:33] <ikonia> dawson: I'm giving you good information, that's being helpful, if you don't want to believe it, don't believe it
[15:33] <andreas_> I refered to the one spewing things
[15:33] <dawson> andreas
[15:34] <andreas_> dawson,
[15:34] <dawson> idk who u are or any of u are
[15:34] <andreas_> I know who you are O_O
[15:34] <dawson> all i came in here for is help installing ONE DAMN PROGRAM
[15:34] <andreas_> what program?
[15:34] <dawson> logitech gaming software
[15:34] <andreas_> oh dear
[15:34] <ikonia> dawson: another thing to consider would be trying to actually map the keys wihtout the 3rd party programs, and monitor the key press input signal
[15:34] <cfhowlett> dawson, you got what you came for.   abuse and insults are not permitted here.  please leave.
[15:34] <dawson> well no
[15:35] <dawson> cuz ikonia brought up something else, how do i map them otherwise ikonia
[15:35] <cfhowlett> !guidelines | dawson, then follow the guide.lines.  they apply to all - even you
[15:35] <ikonia> dawson I've not brought up anything else at all, ar eyou able to follow the conversation
[15:35] <dawson> you just said try to map the keys without 3rd party programs
[15:35] <dawson> im asking how to do it
[15:36] <andreas_> dawson: Logitech is very good at not making any support for their gaming hardware for Linux, I'd stop buying them if I was you. but you can manually map the keys. here is a guide for the mx mouse http://forums.logitech.com/t5/Mice-and-Pointing-Devices/Guide-for-setup-Performance-MX-mouse-on-Linux-with-KDE/td-p/517167
[15:36] <ikonia> dawson: I've just advised you that software that needs to interact with hardware directly is unlikley to work with
[15:36] <andreas_> just google "<name of keyboard> Ubuntu " and you'll find mapping guides
[15:36] <ikonia> dawson: you could monitor the key inputs, and then map them through to functions,
[15:36] <dawson> how
[15:37] <ikonia> you're not a novice a basic suearch should bring up some options
[15:37] <dawson> and i have a logitech keyboard andreas_
[15:37] <dawson> and ikonia
[15:37] <cfhowlett> dawson you're not a novice in ubuntu .. .rigth?
[15:37] <andreas_> what keyboard dawson ?

[15:40] <jatt> just ignore the guy ffs
[15:40] <Hjax> anyone have experience with installing chrubuntu on an asus chromebox?
[15:41] <Hjax> upon completing the installation, i am unable to make the device boot to the ubuntu install, the chromos install works fine
[15:41] <dawson> for hwe-support-status it says command not found
[15:42] <andreas_> Hjax never tried a chromebook, does it run UEFI? If so, did you install UEFI or legacy?
[15:42] <Seveas> Hjax: chrubuntu is not a supported Ubuntu variant.
[15:42] <ikonia> sorry my connection dropped
[15:43] <Seveas> thanks ikonia!
[15:43] <ikonia> apologies, connection is a bit flakey
[15:43] <cfhowlett> Hjax, chrubuntu not supported here.  check their page.
[15:43] <cfhowlett> ikonia, all those ISP elves must have got into the eggnog
[15:44] <Seveas> ikonia: http://azerothianlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/buddy-awesome.jpg
[15:46] <ikonia> love it
[15:47] <Hjax> andreas_: it detected that the device supported legacy and did that
[15:48] <latief> hiii
[15:49] <andreas_> Hjax well this is ubuntu support. I don't think they want us to discuss un-supported things here. but remember if chrome is installed in UEFI and ubuntu in legacy Ubuntu WILL NOT be able to boot.
[15:49] <ikonia> andreas_: a wise ending to a discussion
[15:49] <cfhowlett> +1
[15:50] <mohammadsavadkuh> can i use Intelligent Network  on ubuntu ?
[15:50] <ikonia> could define what you mean by Intelligent Network
[15:50] <ikonia> as in the brand ?
[15:51] <sandy> well anybody knows the differences between ubuntu 15.04 alpha release and ubuntu 14.10.
[15:51] <ikonia> a lot
[15:51] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu+1 | sandy,
[15:51] <mohammadsavadkuh> ikonia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_Network
[15:52] <ikonia> mohammadsavadkuh: yes. thats possible if you have the right software and management software
[15:52] <cfhowlett> mohammadsavadkuh, no mention of linux
[15:52] <sandy> I know that it's codenamed vivid vervet but accept name is there any difference... I mean feature or something or bug fixes....
[15:52] <ikonia> a lot of the OSS stuff is managed by linux, but I'm not aware of it being specificly used in ubuntu,
[15:53] <ikonia> but technically, I see no reason why not, if your software suports it
[15:53] <jatt> wait until it's released and check its release notes
[15:53] <MonkeyDust> sandy  start here, "what's new" http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/12/ubuntu-15-04-alpha-1-flavors
[15:59] <sandy> thank you and i got that.. And i think it's possible to install linux kernel 3.18 in ubuntu 14.04. If you know then please share it.
[16:00] <niee> how to check where is problem in my ubuntu. bluetoth not working ];
[16:00] <MonkeyDust> sandy  in case you're the first to try it, then please share it
[16:01] <sandy> you mean it can not be installed...
[16:01] <felipe> hellO! new user nb
[16:02] <jhutchins> sandy: Roughly speaking any kernel can be installed, especially later versions.
[16:02] <MonkeyDust> sandy  don't know, try it and share your findings
[16:02] <jhutchins> sandy: The question is whether there's a packaged version.
[16:03] <jaskell> I have a huge file in the recycling bin, If I try to empty trash it says preparing, and then after 10 mins the computer freezes, how can I get rid of this file?
[16:04] <jhutchins> sandy: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D
[16:04] <Seveas> jaskell: cd ~/.local/share/Trash; rm file_name_here
[16:04] <cfhowlett> jaskell, you might try the command line: sudo rm filename.  be ERY careful to delete ONLY that one file.
[16:04] <Seveas> err
[16:04] <Seveas> jaskell: cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files; rm file_name_here
[16:04] <jhutchins> sandy: You can build upstream kernels for ubuntu, or just compile and install them.
[16:05] <jhutchins> sandy: If you go outside of the standard packages there are fewer people who can help with problems.
[16:05] <sandy_> Yes that's why I am asking here if the package is available or not for the 3.18 kernel
[16:05] <sandy_> if it's not then it can not be installed that's a common sense.
[16:05] <jhutchins> sandy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel
[16:05] <Seveas> sandy_: maybe in the kernel team's ppa
[16:06] <MonkeyDust> sandy  still, the best way to find out, would be by trying
[16:06] <MonkeyDust> sandy  then you are the expert on the matter
[16:07] <Seveas> sandy_: looks like they only made 3.18 available for utopic and vivit, not for trusty (14.04) or earlier.
[16:07] <sandy_> why guys I am expert on that matter. If the package is available then can be installed. If I find it then I'll tell you guys and vice-versa.
[16:08] <mohammadsavadkuh> how can i config vpn pptp on my os that is ubuntu  ?
[16:08] <sandy_> Seveas: Yes this may be in there..
[16:08] <cfhowlett> mohammadsavadkuh, you VPN provider will have the info
[16:08] <john_doe_jr> can u have comments in ssh config files?
[16:09] <Seveas> john_doe_jr: yes, lines starting with # are comments
[16:09] <niee> any ideas how to access ubuntu-samsung-ubuntu ? i have usb cable.
[16:09] <john_doe_jr> Seveas: awesome thanks
[16:09] <niee> please help
[16:09] <Seveas> mohammadsavadkuh: make sure the network-manager-pptp-gnome package is installed. Then it should show up in the normal network settings dialog
[16:09] <cfhowlett> Niedar, ubuntu samsung ubuntu?  what?

[16:10] <niee> samsung phone cfhowlett
[16:10] <Seveas> niee: recent ubuntu's should recognize it if you plug it in. Older Ubuntu's don't do MTP properly.

[16:11] <Seveas> niee: but you can just mail it from your samsung to a mailaccount you can read on your pc :)
[16:11] <jatt> nbusrone: diff
[16:11] <Seveas> niee: that's an ancient Ubuntu. You should reinstall (upgrade won't even be possible it's too old)
[16:11] <cfhowlett> niee, errr 11.04?  end of life - no security.
[16:11] <niee> okt tnx
[16:12] <Guest48996> merry christmas everyone
[16:12] <nbusrone> jatt : tried , it just grey out and not responding for the whole time

[16:13] <Seveas> thanks Guest48996!
[16:13] <gaddd> how write makefile? let file1.c -> obj/file1/file1.o        file2.c -> obj/file2/file2.o
[16:13] <Seveas> mohammadsavadkuh: check /var/log/syslog for hints

[16:14] <omnicelut> Hi! I am looking for a help with PulseAudio in Lubuntu 14.04; this is an older HP desktop with ICH6 and integrated mono speaker, but PA ignores it and detectes headphones output only; any pointers?
[16:14] <john_doe_jr> Does anyone know if there is a way to do some logic in sshconfig file…like when I"m away from home network use a domain name but inside my network use a static ip?
[16:15] <Seveas> john_doe_jr: you can't do that I'm afraid
[16:15] <gaddd> Seveas: tks,i read some page,but not found the solution.
[16:15] <Seveas> !sound | omnicelut, maybe something here can help...
[16:18] <omnicelut> Seveas: thanks! The funny thing is, this worked fine with ALSA, but I need PA for Skype; I suspect this has something to do with PA's profiles, but documentation is not really helping
[16:19] <Seveas> omnicelut: pulseaudio is an often-broken black box to me, so I can't be of more help than that. Sorry!
[16:19] <nbusrone> jatt : can't find the application , do you know any command on how to list file only but not directory ?
[16:20] <gaddd> Seveas: file1.c -> obj/file1/file1.o  now i can use the function "basename" process it, but it compile everytime, i wan put the basename to the target rule. how can?
[16:20] <jhutchins> !skype
[16:20] <Voyage> my server says "The system is going down for halt NOW!" Why is that?
[16:21] <jhutchins> Voyage: Something (most likely you) has initiated a shutdown.
[16:21] <jaskell_> Seveas: I tried using the rm command on the folder in the recycle bin, the command is still running, at least nothing has frozen up
[16:21] <jaskell_> Does it usually take 10 mins to delete a file?
[16:21] <cfhowlett> jaskell_, normal?  no
[16:21] <Voyage> jhutchins i never
[16:21] <jaskell_> I cannot even use the ls command in the folder containing this file
[16:22] <Voyage> jhutchins The ram got full. its 512mb
[16:22] <jatt> jaskell_: how big is the file
[16:22] <jaskell_> cfhowlett, this file was a python dump of a variable that failed, could something else be at play?
[16:23] <bodhi_zazen> o/ Corey84
[16:23] <EriC^^> jaskell_: type du -sh /path/to/file
[16:23] <cfhowlett> jaskell_, I'd say so.  have an ubuntu USB handy?  boot up a live session, navigate to that file and delete
[16:23] <jaskell_> jatt, the du -sh command also froze, and if I try to navigate to the file via folders, the folder hangs on loading
[16:23] <cfhowlett> jaskell_, you've got some super weird stuff happening.  slow down
[16:23] <EriC^^> jaskell_: i think deleting a file is regardless of the size though, it just deletes the pointer to the file
[16:23] <Voyage> How can I increase my swap space ? http://pastie.org/9798573
[16:23] <jatt> jaskell_: is that a mounted partition? nfs, samba?
[16:23] <jaskell_> EriC^^, that command also hangs
[16:24] <nbusrone> jatt : do you know how do I print out gnome-search-tool result into a text ?
[16:24] <jaskell_> jatt, I have only 1 partition on my hard drive with ubuntu on it
[16:25] <Seveas> jaskell_: that's very odd. can you kill the rm with control-C?
[16:25] <jaskell_> Seveas, let me try
[16:25] <jaskell_> Seveas, yes I can\
[16:25] <jatt> jaskell_: do
[16:25] <jatt> gvfs-trash <file>
[16:25] <jatt> or
[16:25] <jatt> > <file>
[16:25] <jatt> work?
[16:25] <Seveas> jaskell_: curious. Is it a file or a folder you're deleting?
[16:26] <jhutchins> !swap
[16:26] <Seveas> Voyage: stop wasting our time. Buy a new computer.
[16:26] <jhutchins> Voyage: You can create a swap file on your regular filesystem if you don't want to mess with partitions.
[16:26] <jaskell_> Seveas, it's a folder since any attempt to get into the folder and look at the file freezes, so I'm doing sudo rm -r folder
[16:27] <jaskell_> jatt, can I use gvfs-trash -r <folder> instead
[16:27] <Seveas> jaskell_: ok, there may simply be a ginormous amount of files in that folder, ext* filesystems don't like this. Try this command (and don't use gvfs-trash!): ls -lad /path/to/folder/
[16:27] <Seveas> jaskell_: the ls -lad should give one line of output, paste it in here please
[16:28] <jaskell_> ok one sec
[16:28] <nbusrone> jatt : Thanks  I guess i found a way using gnome-search-tools :-)
[16:29] <jhutchins> nbuonanno: The Gnu find command is very powerful.
[16:29] <Voyage> Seveas dear, I just baught a NEW vps. with 512 ram instead of 128
[16:29] <Seveas> jaskell_: the ls -lad /path/to/folder should also return instantly.
[16:29] <Voyage> jhutchins ok, according to the pastie link. I already have a swap? no?
[16:29] <jaskell_> Seveas, drwxrwxr-x 3 bsa bsa 585248768
[16:30] <jaskell_> Seveas, so 3 files totaling size: 585248768 ?
[16:30] <EriC^^> jaskell_: no it means theres another sub dir in
[16:30] <jhutchins> Voyage: Yes, you have a very small swap file.
[16:31] <jatt> jhutchins: forget about gvfs-trash my bad. but > <file> does it work?
[16:31] <jaskell_> EriC^^, let me see if I can find out the name of those subdirectories, but I think ls will freeze
[16:31] <Seveas> jaskell_: no, a folder with a ginormous amount of files. The folder itself is taking up a *lot* of space, let alone the things in it.
[16:31] <Seveas> jaskell_: stop.
[16:31] <jhutchins> Voyage: You could probably use up to 1G of swap.
[16:31] <jhutchins> Voyage: You could do 2g, but managing that would be very slow.
[16:31] <EriC^^> jaskell_: what the.. why's it say 585248768 ? shouldn't it be 4096?
[16:32] <Seveas> jaskell_: you need some careful ls invocations here: ls -1 -f /path/to/folder | wc -l
[16:32] <jhutchins> jatt: that type of redirection is a function of the bash shell, so if you're doing console-based commands you can use the various redirect tools.
[16:32] <Seveas> jaskell_: the -f will make it not try to sort. It will still take a while. But that command should give you the number of files.
[16:32] <jaskell_> EriC^^, other folders are 4096
[16:32] <Seveas> jaskell_: if you just want to delete them, rm -r the folder and wait. That will also take a while
[16:32] <nbusrone> hi again , why does default directory ubuntu 14.04 view doesn't have a full time and date for modified ? instate on a date ? lets say I created a folder , I only can see both folder on today's date but not the full time created
[16:32] <EriC^^> jaskell_: yeah, dirs are 4096
[16:32] <Seveas> jaskell_: EriC^^: a large number there means you have a gazillion files in the folder.
[16:33] <jaskell_> Seveas, ok let me try that command
[16:33] <Seveas> which makes ext* dog slow
[16:33] <blind> I have a really weird question if someone's available. I have a few machines out there that I connect to with VNC. Sometimes I have to restart the VNC connection, and when I do, I have no gnome-session running, just a blank screen. So using ssh, I DISPLAY=:0 and start up gnome-session. However, this screws up my keyboard layout somehow.. "test" becomes "ngbn", I've found 3 keys that act as CTRL, the number "5" is backspace, etc. no keyboard layout I can
[16:33] <Seveas> I had that the other day, took 15 minutes to delete 300k files.
[16:33] <nbusrone> it doesn't sound right with full time date remove , what if I wanted to view files and folder ?
[16:34] <blind> So I started up applications separately. First nautilus, then metacity, then gnome-panel. No issues. However, when I start gnome-settings-daemon, that
[16:34] <EriC^^> Seveas: how so? dirs are not more than 4096
[16:34] <blind> that's when the problems start. and killing gnome-settings-daemon after the fact does not fix it, have to restart X
[16:34] <libyan-gh0st> :|
[16:34] <Seveas> EriC^^: try creating (on a new partition, so you can easily get rid of it by deleting the partition!) 100000 files in a filder without using subfolders
[16:35] <Voyage> jhutchins ok, how can I increase my swap?
[16:35] <EriC^^> Seveas: you mean jaskell_ ? ^^
[16:35] <EriC^^> Seveas: oh ok
[16:35] <Seveas> EriC^^: no you, as you wanted to know what can cause this :)
[16:35] <jhutchins> Voyage: Did you follow the link dpkg posted?
[16:35] <jaskell_> Seveas, I can hear the hard drive crunching after that command, that should list the number of files?
[16:35] <EriC^^> Seveas: but isn't the size of the dir the same regardless of the number of files in it?
[16:35] <Seveas> jaskell_: yup.
[16:35] <Seveas> EriC^^: nope.
[16:35] <Voyage> jhutchins I think i missed it
[16:36] <Voyage> jhutchins which link?
[16:36] <jhutchins> !swap
[16:36] <Voyage> No, I didnt got any link
[16:36] <EriC^^> Seveas: ok, making 100000 files right now in /tmp
[16:36] <Seveas> EriC^^: don't!
[16:37] <chu> lol
[16:37] <Seveas> do it in a subfolder at least
[16:37] <EriC^^> /tmp/t
[16:37] <EriC^^> lol why not
[16:37] <EriC^^> they will be deleted on rebooting
[16:37] <jhutchins> Voyage: I guess the bot doesn' tlike to repeat itself.
[16:37] <Seveas> as you'll need to delete the folder, and deleting /tmp is no fun
[16:37] <jhutchins> Voyage: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra  memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[16:37] <EriC^^> Seveas: they'll be deleted on rebooting no?
[16:37] <Seveas> EriC^^: and bootup will take half an hour :)
[16:37] <Seveas> (that's how I noticed)
[16:37] <jhutchins> Voyage: I believe that will tell you how to add a swap file on your existing filesystem.
[16:38] <terrasapien> but you could find the files you created, and delete only those like this: find /tmp -type f -cmin -2 -exec rm -f {} \;
[16:38] <Seveas> terrasapien: that doesn't reduce the size of /tmp itself back to the normal 4k
[16:38] <jhutchins> terrasapien: Or you could use the -delete option instead of -exec rm {} \;
[16:38] <Seveas> but if he's in /tmp/t the damage isn't too bad :)
[16:39] <Voyage> jhutchins but I think I already have a swap at /dev/null ?
[16:39] <EriC^^> it's almost done around 80,000
[16:39] <terrasapien> jhutchins, yes, that's probably better
[16:39] <EriC^^> i can still ls the dir easily
[16:39] <EriC^^> i7 here
[16:40] <gaddd> the makefile how can make file1.c >> obj/file1/file1.o ?
[16:40] <Seveas> !repeat | gaddd
[16:40] <EriC^^> Seveas: ok, done
[16:40] <EriC^^> drwxrwxr-x 2 e e 2170880 Dec 25 18:39 t
[16:40] <Seveas> :)
[16:40] <EriC^^> yikes
[16:41] <EriC^^> is it linear?
[16:41] <Seveas> do a 'time rm t'
[16:41] <Voyage> jhutchins it tells me how to add, but I want to extend
[16:41] <Seveas> and then try again with 200k or 300k :)
[16:41] <kaba> my ubuntu 14.04 cloud vps server showing 69 packages can be updated  30 updates are security updates
[16:41] <EriC^^> if its linear i wonder how many files he has
[16:41] <kaba> how to do this task
[16:42] <kaba> my ubuntu 14.04 cloud vps server showing 69 packages can be updated  30 updates are security updates
[16:42] <kaba> how to do this task
[16:42] <Seveas> EriC^^: me too. And given that ls -f1 | wc -l hasn't returned yet, my guess is: an awful lot.
[16:42] <Seveas> kaba: sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:42] <EriC^^> Seveas: jaskell_ if it's linear, it means you have 27million files in that dir
[16:42] <EriC^^> :D
[16:43] <kaba> please anyone help me i am new in this
[16:43] <Seveas> jaskell_: if the ls | wc hasn't returned yet: just rm -r the folder and wait. And wait. And wait. And ..
[16:43] <Seveas> kaba: I already gave you the command.
[16:43] <|_SpY_|> Hi guys, I create a new user /home/storage and for this specific folder I want give access to apache read/write files there and I also wanna give a permission for another user to just read this folder.

I already added the apache and myuser i
[16:43] <|_SpY_|> nside de storage group but doesn't works :(
[16:43] <jaskell_> EriC^^ wow, how long will it take to delete that
[16:44] <jaskell_> Seveas, it's still going
[16:44] <EriC^^> jaskell_: i can time me deleting the 100,000
[16:44] <EriC^^> jaskell_: you can get a rough idea on a i7 what it'll take
[16:44] <EriC^^> time rm -r t
[16:44] <EriC^^> real	0m0.831s
[16:44] <EriC^^> lol
[16:45] <jaskell_> Let's round that up to a second, so 10 seconds for a million, 270 seconds for 27 million?
[16:45] <Seveas> jaskell_: kill it and rm.
[16:45] <jaskell_> that shouldn't be so bad but it seems to be taking  a lot longer for me
[16:46] <EriC^^> jaskell_: yeah
[16:46] <jaskell_> Seveas, wait
[16:46] <Seveas> jaskell_: it'll be longer. the bigger the directory the less efficient ext* gets
[16:46] <jaskell_> it just stopped
[16:46] <jaskell_> your command
[16:46] <EriC^^> jaskell_: that's around 5mins
[16:46] <Seveas> oh
[16:46] <|_SpY_|> nobody knows how to do it? :(
[16:46] <Seveas> what's the output?
[16:46] <kaba> thanks @Seveas now i find that
[16:46] <jaskell_> 4340273
[16:46] <Seveas> 4.3 million files
[16:46] <jaskell_> WOW
[16:46] <jaskell_> thanks for that python

[16:47] <groot> error message: "Package libdvdcss is not available, but is referred to by another package.

[16:54] <min> Hi, can i propose a math question?
[16:55] <groot> Seveas - that worked perfecly. Thank you!
[16:55] <Seveas> min: if it's no more difficult than 1+1, we may be able to answer it. For actual math, try wolfram alpha
[16:56] <BluesKaj_> or the calculator

[16:57] <nvga> I have changed mottherboard and I want to boot with my old installation My I have root and a boot -efi partition (64 bit) the problem is that I have the /dev/sda1 and in root there are also files in a folder boot (The / is encrypted). The problem is that I grub starts booting the system and it cannot open the root file system and it panicks. Should I update the initramfs ?
[16:58] <nvga> the /dev/sda1 is the boot partition
[16:58] <min> Seveas: Thanks Wolframalpha is very useful, but my problem's the proof of a theorem
[16:58] <min> Can you suggest a mathematical IRC channel?

[16:59] <Seveas> min: I can't, but try  http://math.stackexchange.com/
[16:59] <min> Thanks
[16:59] <BluesKaj_> nvga, usually boot partitions aren't necessary, but since your / is encrypted then the uuid may have changed

[17:24] <danktamagachi> Hello. I recently installed the kubuntu-desktop package with the intention of comparing unity and kde. I've noticed that now in Unity the text color of application menus is black instead of white. I've tried resetting all theme settings in unity-tweak, removing my .gtkrc-2.0 file, and restarting lightdm. When I google the only real answers are "uninstall ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop and reinstall." This seems like overkill- does anybody have
[17:24] <danktamagachi>  any other ideas?
[17:24] <cfhowlett> !pureubuntu
[17:25] <danktamagachi> I don't want to remove all Kubuntu packages- i just want to change the font color for application menus
[17:25] <danktamagachi> is there a way to do that without blowing away KDE?

[17:50] <BluesKaj_> Caleb--, intel-hda ?
[17:50] <Caleb--> yup
[17:52] <BluesKaj_> Caleb--, in the terminal, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel ,then reboot, it's aknown bug. If there is no output from the command then the driver loaded properly
[17:52] <Caleb--> i see
[17:53] <Caleb--> BluesKaj_, is this an intel bug or an ubuntu bug?
[17:53]  * shiggitay tries that as well
[17:53] <shiggitay> though I have a BayTrail tablet... it may or may not help....
[17:53] <nvga> @BluesKaj_ uuid havent changed http://paste.ubuntu.com/9618619/  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9618637/ I did update-iniramfs from chrooted environment and I get cryptsetup: WARNING: failed to determine cipher modules to load for sda2_crypt
[17:53] <BluesKaj_> Caleb--, ubuntu bug
[17:56] <Caleb--> BluesKaj_, btw, is there anything i could do to increase performance of my onboard hd4600 gpu?
[17:57] <BluesKaj_> which driver Caleb-- ?,  lspci -knn | egrep -A 3 'VGA|3D'
[17:57] <Caleb--> my system is rather laggy right now, even though i'm only using 5.4GB out of 16GB RAM, I have a core i7-4790, and a samsung evo 256GB ssd
[17:58] <Caleb--> Kernel driver in use: i915
[18:02] <BluesKaj_> Caleb--, I'm not real familiar how to set  openGL settings in unity/gnome3, since I use kde , but try to set it to at least 2.0 , preferably 3.1 if you can
[18:02] <Caleb--> ok, i'll look for it
[18:03] <Caleb--> BluesKaj_, what about GPU memory... will it dynamically use my main memory, or do I need to increase it manually somewhere?
[18:05] <uschxc> anyone have some time to troubleshoot Vino with me, 14.04?  I can connect with Windows UltraVNC Viewer, but no desktop is displayed
[18:15] <BluesKaj_> Caleb--, in a word, yes, but i recommend a pci graphics card with the specs your system has, it can take advantage of the rest of the sysems processors more so than an onboard gpu

[18:32] <Annoyed> I was just about to say that looks like a media server, not XDMCP

[18:37] <Crell> Hi folks. I am trying to rsync a lot of data to a newly installed 14.04 system, over ssh.  However, the server's ethernet connection seems to keep dying.  From what I can tell it's amount-of-data based, not time-based.  (I left it on and idle all night and it was still connected.)  I've not seen anything in syslog or dmesg that suggest what the issue could be; how would I go about diagnosing this?

[18:49] <Annoyed> bekks: the article you referenced suggests installing "gnome-session-flashback" which Ubuntu SW center has never heard of..It has something called gnome-session-fallback, but it's marked as transitional, trasitioning to the one that isn't listed.
[18:49] <Annoyed> MrSavage : This is a new install. The only related file I've touched is /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[18:53] <Annoyed> Hmmm.. nmap shows  the port (177) is closed
[18:55] <bekks> Annoyed: The gnome fallback isnt supported anymore. You have to use another desktop environment, not Unity.

[19:00] <EriC^^> NeoGeo64: like ikonia said it will run all the time, same password too
[19:00] <MrSavage> Annoyed: could be bad configuration in /etc/X11/xorg.conf or a lack of a driver
[19:00] <skinux> Having a problem with DVD. I played half of a movie and took it out, and now VLC (or DVD drive) is refusing to see any dvd that I put in.
[19:00] <skofus> Seveas: i double checked it.. but i will surely look again.. my eth0 is named em1 for some reason.. that is just a label right?
[19:00] <usuariox2015> hola
[19:00] <ikonia> skinux: probably still thinks it's mounted
[19:00] <MrSavage> Annoyed: but you didn't have problems with the install with the GUI?
[19:00] <ikonia> skinux: simple test, reboot
[19:00] <nbrack> Seveas: Yes I move the mouse into the move windows
[19:00] <skinux> Okay
[19:00] <Seveas> skofus: that's the new way of naming interfaces.
[19:00] <skinux> Isn't there a way to demount without rebooting?
[19:00] <MrSavage> skinux: what do you mean refusing to see?
[19:01] <Annoyed> MrSavage : Xming does work on the laptop; I can connect to other machines on the network w/out issue
[19:01] <ikonia> skinux: rebooting will be a quick and easy test
[19:01] <skinux> MrSavage: Specifically, VLC says there is no disc in the drive.
[19:01] <MrSavage> skinux: you could try logging out and loggin in
[19:01] <nbrack> weirdly enough, if I go to tty and go back to xorg, xev works again until I restart it
[19:01] <skofus> Seveas: so i am doing it right by using em1 and not eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[19:01] <skofus> :)
[19:01] <Annoyed> MrSavage Only install issue was forcing the /var partition to use reiserfs
[19:02] <MrSavage> well this is outside my knowledge
[19:02] <MrSavage> sorry
[19:03] <abator> i need a little help on x11vnc , can someone help me please?
[19:04] <bekks> Annoyed: So did you install another desktop environment rather than Unity?
[19:05] <Annoyed> No, aside from forcing /var to a reiserfs, this is an out-of-box; only additional sw installed is sshd
[19:06] <Annoyed> bekks No, aside from forcing /var to a reiserfs, this is an out-of-box; only additional sw installed is sshd
[19:06] <bekks> Annoyed: For XDMCP to be working, you need to use another desktop environment. Unity will not work.
[19:06] <Annoyed> Bah.
[19:06] <ikonia> bekks: thats interesting to know
[19:06] <Annoyed>  Nothing else is there by default?
[19:06] <bekks> Annoyed: The link you've been given tells exactly that.
[19:07] <bekks> Annoyed: Just install another desktop environment of your choice, like xfce, lxde, kde, etc.
[19:09] <Annoyed> I presume Gnome will work?
[19:09] <bekks> Annoyed: I stringly doubt that.
[19:09] <bekks> *strongly. Gnome2 is dead, and Gnome3 wont, afaik.
[19:10] <nbrack> curiouser and curiouser : when I start x with `xinit -- :1`, it says connection to X server lost, even though my .xinitrc file contains `exec xterm`...
[19:10] <Caleb---> when running "aplay -L", one of the results I get is: surround21:CARD=PCH,DEV=0 \ HDA Intel PCH, ALC1150 Analog \  2.1 Surround output to Front and Subwoofer speakers. But Ubuntu does not let me choose the 2.1 speaker setup. is there any other way for me to configure it?
[19:11] <Annoyed> bekks : KDE or xfce available asa metapackage, one install the sucks everything in ?
[19:12] <bekks> Annoyed: Yes.
[19:12] <Annoyed> There a howto on that?
[19:12] <bekks> Annoyed: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop / lubuntu-desktop / xubuntu-desktop
[19:12] <bekks> No need for a howto for a single command.
[19:13] <Annoyed> apt-get install kubuntu-desktop / lubuntu-desktop / xubuntu-desktop  is a single command?
[19:14] <Annoyed> or is that chooseone?
[19:14] <Annoyed> choose one of them, rather
[19:14] <bekks> Annoyed: Choose the desktop environment you'd like to install and then choose the name of the metapackage.
[19:15] <arun> guys, I have a chroot running, inside that chroot I created a user with same uid and name of my host... and now I wanna delete that user in chroot, how can I do that?
[19:16] <arun> I get user arun is currently used by process 12311
[19:16] <arun>  while trying to deluser arun
[19:16] <ikonia> arun: the same way you added it, but delete
[19:16] <arun> ikonia: won't that harm the host?
[19:16] <ikonia> or chroot as another user so there is not a conflict
[19:16] <ikonia> arun: not if your in the chroot
[19:16] <ikonia> as the commands run in the chroot, apply to the chroot only
[19:17] <arun> ikonia: it says this root@tech:/# deluser arun
[19:17] <arun> Removing user `arun' ...
[19:17] <arun> Warning: group `arun' has no more members.
[19:17] <arun> userdel: user arun is currently used by process 12311
[19:17] <arun> /usr/sbin/deluser: `/usr/sbin/userdel arun' returned error code 8. Exiting.
[19:17] <arun> root@tech:/#
[19:17] <unopaste> arun you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[19:17] <Annoyed> bekks: Ok, thanks, I'll take a shot at that. Gonna try it on a VM first.   Is there a howto for setting XDMCP up under KDE ?
[19:17] <ikonia> arun: kill the process then
[19:17] <ikonia> and please don't flood the channel, use a pastebin
[19:18] <bekks> Annoyed: Setting up XDMCP depends on the display manager used, not the desktop environment. So as long as you are using lightdm, the link given still applies.
[19:18] <arun> ikonia: nope, it didn't work
[19:19] <ikonia> arun: "it didn't work" ?? what didn't work, how did it not work
[19:19] <ikonia> arun: you have to give details, thats like me saying "fix it" to you
[19:19] <arun> ikonia: now, worked thanks alot
[19:21] <Annoyed> Ok, now I'm confused again. You're suggesting using KDE or XFCE, which are desktop environmets, but you say XDMCP doesn't depend upon that ?
[19:21] <ikonia> they are desktops
[19:21] <ikonia> not login managers
[19:22] <bekks> ikonia: I doubt lightdm and kdm are desktops ;)
[19:22] <ikonia> he's saying "KDE and XFCE"
[19:22] <ikonia> they are desktops
[19:22] <bekks> Yeah.
[19:23] <ikonia> seems to be a real issue differentiating between the desktop and the login
[19:23] <Annoyed> yes, this is mostlikely semantics..
[19:23] <ikonia> no, it's not
[19:23] <ikonia> thats the issue - it's not semantics
[19:24] <ikonia> it's a different technology
[19:24] <rubiksmomo> How can I automatically run a terminal application on login?
[19:25] <Annoyed> I'm thinking that either KDE or XFCE are desktop environments, and bekks is suggesting using one them. but he also says that that alone won't resolve the issue
[19:25] <Annoyed> bekks> Annoyed: Setting up XDMCP depends on the display manager used, not the desktop environment. So as long as you are
[19:26] <bekks> Annoyed: Not true.
[19:26] <bekks> Annoyed: It depends on the desktop environment BUT it is setup using the display manager.
[19:26] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: do you need it to run interactively
[19:26] <bekks> It works fine with lightdm, but it doesnt with Unity.
[19:26] <Genome36> hello im trying to create an ssh .pem file
[19:27] <Genome36> the thing is it is for amazon ec2 servers
[19:27] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: It's a script that works by it self and lasts for entire session
[19:27] <Genome36> i have instances that need to mount a hard drive at home via stfp
[19:28] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: you can add it to the autostart programs
[19:28] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: ~/.config/autostart , it uses .desktop files
[19:28] <Genome36> the only requirements are that i want a passwordless login and to be able to use this same .pem file for all the slaves
[19:28] <rubiksmomo> I have set the script as alias, so I tried to add command "s" to autostart programs, but nothing seems to happen.
[19:28] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: open the dash > startup apps and add it there
[19:28] <alessandro> server irc.oltreirc.org
[19:29] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: type "bash /path/to/script.sh"
[19:29] <Annoyed> So, you're saying install either kde or xfce, modify /etc/lightdm.conf as described in http://askubuntu.com/questions/452802/no-desktop-appears-after-loged-in-using-xdmcp, then insstall gnome-session-flashback? which is not the default sw repository.. use gnome-session-fallback instead ?
[19:30] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: It's just alias now. I'll try to make a script file for it.
[19:30] <bekks> No, forget that gnome fallback
[19:30] <Annoyed> just install kde/xfce, modify /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf ?
[19:31] <bekks> Annoyed: yes.
[19:31] <Annoyed> Ok, thanks.
[19:31] <Annoyed> I'll give that a shot.
[19:32] <Annoyed> I'm no stranger to *nix-like OS's but the window manager/desktop GUI stuff has always been foggy. :p
[19:33] <Annoyed> Thanks for the assistance, and Merry Christmas (or whatever holiday you celebrate.)
[19:33] <Genome36> can someone help me with my ssh ?
[19:34] <Genome36> i have some slaves machines at amazon which need to mount a drive located at my house
[19:34] <Genome36> i want to use sftp (ssh ftp)
[19:35] <Genome36> but i have a bad time trying to create my .pem file
[19:35] <Genome36> and i would also like this same file to be able to be used by any machine that has this .pem
[19:42] <MrSavage> what's the point of the env command? I seem to be able to set environment variables without having to type it
[19:43] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: I now have "bash ~/Documents/autoScreenshot.sh" in "Startup Applications", but it doesn't seem to run when I login
[19:45] <rubiksmomo> it works if I put the same command to terminal
[19:47] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: try gnome-terminal -e "bash -c 'bash ~/Documents/autoScreenshot.sh'"
[19:47] <EriC^^> i've no idea
[19:48] <strayArch> When Chrooting to into Ubuntu on Chrome OS is there a way to prevent it from suspending when I toggle another display
[19:49] <arun> guys, any working alternative to ubiquity???
[19:50] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: any luck?
[19:50] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: Thanks, it works! =)
[19:50] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: ok, cool
[19:51] <rubiksmomo> Is there a way to run it in background?
[19:51] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: you can probably use gnome-terminal -e "bash ~/Documents/autoScreenshot.sh"
[19:51] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: what do you mean?
[19:51] <EriC^^> hmm
[19:52] <shiggitay> question: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot <== will that work for a Windows ISO? I'm about to try it
[19:52] <rubiksmomo> rubiksmomo: I'd like the script to run without visible terminal window
[19:52] <shiggitay> for / with
[19:53] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: you can set it very tiny
[19:53] <EriC^^> with --geometry=0x0 , it'll still show though
[19:53] <rubiksmomo> at least it's better maybe
[19:54] <shiggitay> anyone?
[19:54] <rubiksmomo> This isn't working (just flashes, but doesn't do anything or stay on): gnome-terminal -e "bash ~/Documents/autoScreenshot.sh"
[19:54] <arun> guys, any working alternative to ubiquity???
[19:54] <EriC^^> you could launch it with a certain profile too, with a certain title, and with devilspie you could hide the window i guess
[19:55] <EriC^^> !info devilspie | rubiksmomo
[19:55] <EriC^^> there might be a better way though
[19:55] <shiggitay> arun, I've not had a problem with it.... Anaconda from RedHat is worse.
[19:55] <arun> shiggitay: any other?
[19:55] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: i see
[19:55] <arun> shiggitay: what does Kali use?
[19:56] <shiggitay> I have no idea heh
[19:56] <squinty> shiggitay:  might want to consider if you gain anything .....is the Windows iso bootable to a live desktop or just to the Install screen etc
[19:58] <rubiksmomo> EriC^^: Thanks. I think I'll go with this startup script that runs automatically in tiny terminal window: gnome-terminal --geometry=0x0 -e "bash -c 'bash ~/Documents/autoScreenshot.sh'"
[19:58] <EriC^^> rubiksmomo: ok :)
[20:00] <shiggitay> squinty, I just used grml-rescueboot to try and boot the iSO, but I knw chainload +1 is needed... where would I put that in its entry?
[20:03] <arun> shiggitay: what does Kali use?
[20:03] <shiggitay> arun, I said I had no idea >_>
[20:04] <arun> shiggitay: ok
[20:04] <bekks> arun: you're on kali?
[20:04] <arun> guys, please recommend me a good working installer please except ubiquity
[20:04] <arun> bekks: nope
[20:05] <rypervenche> arun: What's wrong with ubiquity? And what is it that you're trying to do?
[20:05] <bekks> arun: There is no other graphical installer besides ubiquity. Whats your actual issue?
[20:05] <arun> i am building a custom live stuff, and I want something too simple than ubiquity ... like there is in kali linux...
[20:06] <arun> or like debian installer
[20:07] <DEFALT> HI
[20:08] <ilias> Hello
[20:08] <ilias> can some one help me ?
[20:09] <DEFALT> hi guys , how i do access the irc chat anonymous?
[20:09] <bubbasaures> ilias, State the issue for help.
[20:10] <rypervenche> arun: I would ask in the Kali channel then to see what they use.
[20:11] <Novice201y> Hi. How install Desura on Ubuntu?
[20:11] <bubbasaures> DEFALT, Join freenode get a cloak, or use tor maybe.
[20:11] <bubbasaures> or a proxy
[20:12] <bubbasaures> arrival is always announced if that's what you mean
[20:17] <ilias> hello guys
[20:17] <Annoyed> 'Lo again.
[20:18] <ilias> i create a shell script and i want to create an installer for the script
[20:18] <ilias> like .deb
[20:18] <bekks> Thats a package, no installer.
[20:19] <ilias> can some one help me PLZ
[20:19] <ilias> bekks: yes i want to create a .deb to my shell program,
[20:20] <ilias> @bekks yes i want to create a .deb to my shell program,
[20:20] <Annoyed> bekks: Anything else I should have done? Installed kde, made the changes to /etc/lightdm.conf & /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-ubuntu.conf, reboot.. and no change. still a blank backing screen in Xming.... nmap from another machine on the network still says port 177 is closed.
[20:20] <bekks> So create a .deb for your shell script.
[20:20] <Novice201y> http://www.desura.com/ recognises this machine as Windows? What goes wrong?
[20:20] <massipro> salut
[20:20] <bekks> Annoyed: Did you select KDE in the login manager?
[20:20] <massipro> comment puis je utiliser mon iphone sur ubutnu ?
[20:21] <ilias> @bekks i don't khow how, can you help me
[20:21] <bekks> !fr | massipro
[20:21] <Annoyed> you mean at the console?
[20:21] <massipro>  /join #ubuntu-fr
[20:21] <Annoyed> I don't even get a login screen using Xming. Just a blank backing screen which is part of Xming
[20:22] <bekks> ilias: This is a good start: http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/
[20:22] <ilias> @bekks thanks lot
[20:26] <Annoyed> bekks : Using Xming, I should get a login screen to select desktop, right?
[20:26] <bekks> Annoyed: What are you actually trying to do?
[20:26] <nammaianh> asdsad
[20:26] <nammaianh> Hello
[20:27] <nammaianh> :) Im learning to use IRC
[20:27] <nammaianh> Sorry for that
[20:27] <Annoyed> bekks Connect using Xming over a gigabit in-house network. Works fine with another machine running FreeBSD on the  same network..
[20:28] <bekks> Annoyed: So actually that reads like "I am trying to connect to the Ubuntu desktop using Windows."
[20:29] <pandb> how should I go about disabling workspace-switching behavior when specific applications are in focus?
[20:29] <Balzy> Hello, I was considering installing ubuntu with full disk encryption and I was wondering how secure is it? Provided, of course, I pick a strong passphrase
[20:29] <pandb> i want ctrl-alt-<arrow> to not switch my desktop when im using a certain ide
[20:29] <pandb> because i prefer that key combination do something else in that specific app
[20:30] <pandb> how should i go about finding out how to do this?
[20:30] <OerHeks> Balzy, as secure as your backup
[20:30] <Annoyed> Yes. This machine will eventually be a server in the basement, and I want to be able to access the desktop interface over the network using Xming, an X-Windows client for Windows. This works off a FreeBSD machine that is down there now, but I  want to replace FreeBSD w/Linux
[20:30] <bekks> Annoyed: Can you please stop repeating that totally useless FreeBSD stuff?
[20:31] <bekks> Annoyed: Are you trying to connect to the desktop of that machine, while using a Windows client?
[20:31] <Balzy> OerHeks what do you mean?
[20:31] <bubbasaures> Balzy, I would research this, the question shows your lack of general info is all.
[20:32] <Annoyed> Ok. Just using that as an example that this does work as far as the windows computer goes. Yes, I'm using Xming, on a Windows machine, trying to connect to the Ubuntu box using X-windows
[20:32] <bubbasaures> Balzy, This is also straight support not an as if conversation.
[20:33] <bekks> Annoyed: So the most easy way would be using NoMachine nxserver/nxclient instead of messing with XDMCP.
[20:33] <OerHeks> Balzy, encryption is pretty safe, but if anything goes wrong with the hardware, recovery is sometimes hard and you need a backup to rely on.
[20:33] <bekks> Annoyed: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[20:35] <Balzy> OerHeks Yep, I know that
[20:35] <aldian> Hi! I cant get "software-manager" nor "do-release-upgrade" propose me to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 although I allowed it in the preferences. Any idea?
[20:36] <SchrodingersScat> !eol | aldian
[20:36] <Annoyed> bekks: Ok, if it does the same thing, I don't care whose name is on it. =) Should that work with Ubntu 14.04 "out of the box" ?
[20:36] <bekks> Annoyed: No, you have to configure it, as described in the article given.
[20:37] <OerHeks> Balzy, i would go for /home/ encryption only, made sure key is backup and have fun
[20:37] <Dondopa> Hello
[20:37] <Dondopa> I was wondering about something with Ubuntu. I havea friend who wants to play a windows game but he cannot play it without wine
[20:37] <Balzy> bubbasaures I'm not an expert in encryption but I've read how it works. I was just curious to know how strong it is and if a really strong password would be enough to protect data
[20:38] <Dondopa> He doesnt have internet  to install wine where he is so i want to put it on his external drive and send it to him
[20:38] <Dondopa> Is it possible to create a single,independent debian package that he can easily install?
[20:38] <Dondopa> He is not very savvy with ubuntu either and I want to make the process easy for him.
[20:38] <bekks> Dondopa: So is he using Debian or Ubuntu?
[20:39] <Dondopa> Ubuntu 14.04
[20:39] <Balzy> OerHeks was considering that too, but I read a well detailed benchmark saying home encryption really lowers reading/writing performance, compared to entire disk
[20:39] <Dondopa> We both use Ubuntu 14.04
[20:39] <DJones> Dondopa: You can download the wine package from the ubuntu repo's http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/wine It should offer a package at the bottom of the web page
[20:40] <Dondopa> So when i put this package on his hard drive
[20:40] <Dondopa> he is getting the full wine to install?
[20:40] <DJones> Dondopa: It should do, in theory, he'll be able to right cick on the downloaded package and install it with the normal package manager
[20:40] <OerHeks> Balzy, please share, i'd like to know more of that
[20:41] <Dondopa> With Ubuntu software center or Synaptic right?
[20:41] <DJones> Dondopa: I think either should install it, or it could be installed from command line
[20:41] <Balzy> OerHeks give me a second, I've read it almost an hour ago
[20:41] <Annoyed> bekks : Ok, that looks fairly straight forward... I'll give that a shot tomorrow. don't have any more time to play.Thanks again
[20:42] <Dondopa> Ok. I will try that. I will know how to help him via the command-line if it comes to that.
[20:42] <Dondopa> Thanks for the help btw.
[20:44] <Dondopa> It is strange because the wine_1.6.2-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb file is not even 1 mb
[20:44] <Dondopa> If he clicks on that he would need to install things from the web which hedoes not have in his area.
[20:44] <bekks> How do you know that? :)
[20:44] <Dondopa> C,mon man wine is not 900+ kbs
[20:45] <Dondopa> It is at least 100+ mbs
[20:45] <Balzy> OerHeks , here it is: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_1404_encryption&num=1
[20:45] <bekks> Dondopa: How do you know that?
[20:45] <Dondopa> bekks
[20:46] <Dondopa> I tried and it fetched for files fromthe internet
[20:46] <Dondopa> The first time I installed wine
[20:46] <Dondopa> He doesnt have internet.

[20:48] <shiggitay> k so I've extracted my Windows 7 install ISO's contents to a partition and I'm trying to set grub to boot from it....
[20:48] <shiggitay> it's not working >_>
[20:49] <shiggitay> I've been trying to follow this: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/482214-Manually-adding-a-new-entry-%28e-g-Windows%29-to-the-GRUB2-EFI-boot-loader-menu
[20:49] <shiggitay> can anyone help?
[20:50] <shiggitay> Would a boot flag need to be set on that partition?
[20:50] <bekks> No.
[20:51] <shiggitay> k then what am I doing wrong? Grub complains that it can't load the EFI files I try and load
[20:51] <OerHeks> Balzy, i expected a 20% on full disk encryption, which isn't true anymore if that benchmark is correct
[20:54] <shiggitay> bekks, ?
[20:55] <bodhi_zazen> is systemd supported her , on Ubuntu as of yet ?
[20:55] <bodhi_zazen> *here

[20:55] <shiggitay> I know what EFI is... >_>
[20:55] <wuschLOR> hi there e need some quci advice i want to backup my homefolder but with encryption isthere a way to encrypt with tar ?
[20:56] <shiggitay> so can anyone help me at all?
[20:56] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay, on some BIOS, mine included here, you have to select which OS to boot in the BOIS from the uefi menu
[20:56] <bodhi_zazen> so If I boot ubuntu/fedora, it will boot linux, but the grub2 menu entry for windows does not always work
[20:57] <Balzy> OerHeks yup, don't know how accurate that benchmark can be though, I've just scrolled quickly through the charts
[20:57] <shiggitay> I don't see the partition I made with my Windows installer stuff
[20:57] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay, if you need help, run boot-repair, post your grub entry (pastebin) and post your error message when you boot windows from the grub menu
[20:57] <shiggitay> bodhi_zazen,
[20:57] <bekks> shiggitay: That link explains on how to deal with grub, too.
[20:58] <shiggitay> Hmmmmmmmmmm
[20:58] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay, if you post the information I requested, I will look
[20:58] <shiggitay> k
[21:00] <wuschLOR> a one liner would be great
[21:00] <shiggitay> I don't have boot-repair
[21:00] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay, install it
[21:01] <shiggitay> this is all on my tablet btw, and I did an apt-cache search boot-repair, nand it returned nothing
[21:01] <shiggitay> and*
[21:02] <bubbasaures> shiggitay, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[21:02] <shiggitay|Tablet> hello bodhi_zazen
[21:02] <bodhi_zazen> Hi shiggitay|Tablet
[21:03] <bodhi_zazen> you need to add the ppa
[21:03] <shiggitay> I just did
[21:03] <bodhi_zazen> apt-get update && apt-get install boot-repair
[21:04] <bodhi_zazen> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[21:04] <shiggitay> yep working on it
[21:05] <skinux> Having a problem playing DVD. I had a DVD running using VLC, but it stopped working and I had to restart to get it to see discs again. Now, movie stopped in the middle and restarting doesn't work. Neither VLC nor MPLayer seem to be able to see there is a movie in the drive.
[21:07] <bodhi_zazen> skinux, could be any number of problems, any error message?
[21:07] <Dondopa> Ok
[21:07] <Dondopa> That did not solve the problem for me
[21:08] <Dondopa> Would it be ok if I gave him a debian package of wine that is meant for debian sid OS?
[21:08] <skinux> VLC was showing a movie, but saying it could not open it. However, now it doesn't show the movie at all.
[21:08] <Dondopa> http://dev.carbon-project.org/debian/wine-unstable/
[21:08] <bekks> Dondopa: No.
[21:08] <Dondopa> aptoncd doesnt work.
[21:08] <Dondopa> I cannot even open it
[21:08] <Dondopa> I cannot find it
[21:08] <bekks> Dondopa: Mixing packages for different distros will cause issues.
[21:09] <Dondopa> Damn there must be some easy wa to get a setup file for wine for the guy to use
[21:09] <Ace2race> is my wifi card compatable with aircrack-ng... its  a Qualcomm Atheros AR242x / AR542x Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
[21:09] <Ace2race> i cant find anything about it and aircrack
[21:11] <Dondopa> Ok i am gonna  take a chance with the debian sid packages since Ubuntu has no easy way to just give me all the debian packages so that he can install it offline.
[21:11] <Dondopa> He wants to play unreal tournament 99
[21:11] <Dondopa> UT99 works flawlessly in wine
[21:11] <Dondopa> just click on the executable and it runs perfectly.
[21:11] <bekks> Dondopa: Mixing packages for different distros will cause issues.
[21:11] <Dondopa> it may cause issues but at least he will be able to play the game
[21:11] <Dondopa> It is just one windows ap[ hewants to work
[21:12] <Dondopa> And I have no alternatives right now
[21:12] <Dondopa> And hewill be here soon
[21:12] <junior> qe onda
[21:12] <skinux> Now, when I click Disc in VLC, it appears to be looking for a disc, but doesn't say if it has found one or not. (looking at debug info)
[21:12] <bekks> Dondopa: Then just wait until he arrives and do not mess up his Ubuntu.
[21:12] <junior> de donde soorfurhsirsirs
[21:12] <junior> urrrrrrrrhfihirs
[21:12] <junior> duruursknrus
[21:12] <junior> bdrbfyurbiyfbr
[21:13] <Dondopa> Wait until he arrives with what?
[21:13] <Dondopa> He has a desktop computer
[21:13] <Dondopa> Travelling so many miles is not feasible
[21:13] <Dondopa> with thedesktop
[21:13] <Dondopa> I asked for a simple solution to just get al lthe debian packages and just install em like you would on windows likesetup files
[21:14] <Dondopa> and that is becoming a game of splitting cunt hairs
[21:14] <Dondopa> So I will see you later.
[21:14] <Dondopa> Goodbye

[21:14] <bubbasaures> this is a world wide channel no age limitation'
[21:15] <Seveas> bubbasaures: I thought freenode TOS does say 13+?
[21:16] <bubbasaures> may be just a point on keeping it clean, what a stupid thing for them to say any way
[21:16] <bodhi_zazen> bubbasaures, they will break ubuntu and then curse us all ;p
[21:16] <bubbasaures> in any context
[21:16] <bubbasaures> true
[21:19] <arun> guys, how to on the virtualbox to view the graphical plymouth theme instead of text based?
[21:19] <bekks> arun: you dont need any special settings.
[21:19] <arun> bekks: it doesn't show
[21:20] <bekks> arun: did you try on physical hardware yet?
[21:21] <arun> bekks: yes, works on physical not in vbox
[21:21] <shiggitay> blah my tablet crashed when trying to set up 'pastebinit'
[21:22] <lotuspsychje> arun: wich ubuntu version are you trying to virtualbox?
[21:22] <bekks> arun: you said you customized that installation medium - did you try on physical hardware too?
[21:22] <arun> lotuspsychje: 14.0.1
[21:23] <arun> bekks: naah... not the customized only...Ubuntu itself doesn't
[21:23] <bekks> arun: And why is plymouth vita to be working in a virtual machine?
[21:23] <lotuspsychje> arun: maybe virtualbox doesnt recognize grafix card?
[21:24] <shiggitay> aannnd bodhi_zazen boot repair is installed
[21:25] <arun> guys, http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_from_2014-12-26_03_07_20-82I2eCSw.png
[21:25] <bekks> arun: Thats plymouth, on your screenshot.
[21:26] <shiggitay|Tablet> bodhi_zazen, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9619761/
[21:26] <lotuspsychje> arun: that looks like grafix card issue, with trouble ubuntu text loading
[21:26] <arun> bekks: its not the one which shows in physical..
[21:26] <lotuspsychje> arun: that happens also on old systems, installing ubuntu
[21:26] <arun> lotuspsychje: any way to fix it? need to install drivers?
[21:26] <bekks> arun: And why is that important? I am trying to understand the actual issue behind that.
[21:27] <arun> bekks: cause, I wanna test plymouths
[21:27] <lotuspsychje> arun: what kind of grafix card you got?
[21:27] <shiggitay|Tablet> bodhi_zazen, ?
[21:28] <bekks> lotuspsychje: in vbox he gets a vbox emulated GPU.
[21:28] <bekks> arun: And you want to test for physical installs?
[21:29] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay, looking
[21:29] <shiggitay|Tablet> kk
[21:29] <lotuspsychje> bekks: that would explane the blur dots indeed
[21:29] <shiggitay|Tablet> bodhi_zazen, I extracted my windows iso's files onto mmcblk0p4
[21:29] <shiggitay|Tablet> would I need to make an efi partition for that partition?
[21:30] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay, I do not see a windows installation
[21:30] <bodhi_zazen> you have to install windows
[21:30] <bekks> lotuspsychje: I still dont get whats so vital about those dots :) How are they expected to look like?
[21:31] <shiggitay|Tablet> indeed... I'm trying to install windows from mmcblk0p4, which contains the contents of a Windows install ISO @ bodhi_zazen
[21:31] <bekks> shiggitay|Tablet: you cant install Windows from a SD card.
[21:31] <bekks> shiggitay|Tablet: Thats simply not supported :)
[21:32] <bodhi_zazen> shiggitay|Tablet, I am noot sure you can do that with grub, and you would need to ask on a windows support forum
[21:32] <lotuspsychje> bekks: with the ubuntu logo right above the text is normal loading
[21:32] <shiggitay|Tablet> would they know enough about grub?
[21:33] <bekks> shiggitay|Tablet: They will tell you the same: you cannot install windows from a sd card.
[21:33] <aldian> SchrodingersScat: that page is awfully outdated. FYI i found out that all I needed was to edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades et set prompt to normal.
[21:33] <bodhi_zazen> probably not, but they would know how to boot windows w/o grub
[21:33] <prometheus2020> ?
[21:33] <bekks> lotuspsychje: So basically just the logo is missing?
[21:33] <arun> lotuspsychje: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2e32] (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
[21:33] <lotuspsychje> bekks: http://linoob.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Ubuntu-Bootscreen.png
[21:33] <shiggitay|Tablet> I guess I'll use the Windows 7 USB thing
[21:33] <lotuspsychje> bekks: i guess thats what he wanted to prove
[21:34] <bekks> arun: thats your physical hardware. Compare it lspci | grep VGA from inside the VM.
[21:34] <shiggitay|Tablet> using a Windows XP VM heh
[21:35] <Junka> how can i see what filesystem i have
[21:36] <zykotick9> Junka: try "mount" in a terminal
[21:36] <arun> lotuspsychje: so, I'll need to install latest driver for it?
[21:36] <bekks> Junka: Just take a look at "mount"
[21:37] <Junka> thanks zykotick9 bekks
[21:37] <bekks> arun: Inside your VM, you do NOT have that Intel GPU.
[21:37] <lotuspsychje> arun: no, its like bekks says, its a virtual gpu
[21:37] <bekks> arun: And using virtualbox, your screenshot looks perfectly normal
[21:38] <arun> bekks: nope, I want the real graphical to work under the booting...
[21:38] <arun> *sorry plymouth
[21:38] <lotuspsychje> EriC^: morning :p
[21:38] <bekks> arun: Thats not possible using vbox
[21:38] <arun> bekks: it is
[21:38] <bekks> arun: Then prove it.
[21:39] <sahildcoder> hi
[21:39] <lotuspsychje> sahildcoder: welcome
[21:39] <bekks> arun: The hardware seen by plymouth is different, and merely supported by plymouth. You will not get the same capabilities like on your physical hardware.
[21:39] <sahildcoder> I am new to open source
[21:40] <sahildcoder> could anyone guide me how to proceed
[21:40] <arun> bekks: check the plymouth in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXPFi_8U1Xs
[21:40] <lotuspsychje> sahildcoder: do you have ubuntu?
[21:40] <sahildcoder> yes
[21:40] <sahildcoder> 14.04
[21:40] <lotuspsychje> !manual | sahildcoder
[21:40] <space_llama> sahildcoder: Proceed with what?
[21:40] <sahildcoder> I want to contribute to open source society
[21:40] <sahildcoder> so need help in that
[21:40] <lotuspsychje> sahildcoder: develope?
[21:41] <sahildcoder> yes
[21:41] <lotuspsychje> sahildcoder: join #ubuntu-devel
[21:41] <sahildcoder> ok
[21:41] <arun> bekks:  http://youtu.be/SXPFi_8U1Xs?t=2m27s

[21:41] <sahildcoder> thank u
[21:42] <Novice201y_> Hello. Is there IDE for Ubuntu that works with .net 4.5.1?
[21:43] <EriC^_> lotuspsychje: morning :D
[21:43] <bekks> arun: Ask the "Chitwanix OS" support on how they did it. Thats not Ubuntu.
[21:44] <arun> bekks: dude.... nope, that was not done my chitwanix team, it was done by the video maker guy
[21:44] <bekks> arun: Using "Chitwanix OS", not "Ubuntu".
[21:45] <arun> bekks: I am using ubuntu
[21:45] <bekks> arun: But the guy in the video isnt :)
[21:45] <arun> bekks: Chitwanix is a derivative of Ubuntu
[21:45] <bekks> arun: And entirely not supported in here.
[21:45] <arun> and I am the developer of it be be honest
[21:46] <Novice201y__> Hello. Is there IDE for Ubuntu that works with .net 4.5.1?
[21:46] <lotuspsychje> Novice201y__: maybe check software centre for the IDE section
[21:46] <arun> Novice201y_: may be not
[21:47] <OerHeks> !ide
[21:47] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: tnx
[21:47] <Novice201y__> arun, I know there is Xamarin but it's oriented toward WM, not ASP.net and other backend themes.
[21:47] <bekks> Novice201y__: Your only chance is some Mono IDE.
[21:47] <arun> ohh ok Novice201y__
[21:56] <ararob> is it worth to make a switch from xubuntu to lubuntu?
[21:57] <lotuspsychje> ararob: does your xubuntu not run smooth?
[21:57] <bubbasaures> ararob, Try both and see which you like.
[21:57] <sapilanang> how-to switch withour reinstalling ?
[21:58] <ararob> lotuspsychje, i've got a shitty laptop from 2008 runs fine with it, but if i can make it even faster, why not
[21:58] <bubbasaures> desktop can be individually installed and chosen at login
[21:58] <ararob> yeah.. i'll give it a try then
[21:58] <lotuspsychje> ararob: you can tweak your xubuntu faster also, if you dont have worse grafix
[21:58] <lotuspsychje> !info preload | ararob
[21:59] <lotuspsychje> ararob: disable unwanted startup items, clean system with bleachbit
[22:00] <ararob> lotuspsychje, i'd say the only thing i don't like is startup time, althogh it's fast, winxp is still abit faster.
[22:00] <ararob> i look at process manager, and i see 150 processes
[22:00] <lotuspsychje> ararob: preload, and textbased boot might be help a bit
[22:01] <lotuspsychje> ararob: startup only system services you really need, like CUPS disable etc
[22:01] <ararob> yeah
[22:02] <lotuspsychje> ararob: i use 'quiet splash' disabled myself, in grub
[22:02] <lotuspsychje> ararob: change to ""
[22:02] <ararob> ok
[22:03] <ararob> this should show me what's going on on startup?
[22:03] <lotuspsychje> ararob: yes textbased boot
[22:03] <sapilanang> wow that slow hah ..
[22:04] <ararob> sleep time.
[22:15] <Pingless> evening all; I'm utterly failing to run a program as root on startup. It's sitting in /usr/lib, and I've tried adding it tor rc.local and creating an upstart script for it - both with no success. Does anyone have any pointers on how to do this?
[22:16] <rypervenche> Pingless: Can you provide us with more information as to what you are trying to run?
[22:16] <EriC^_> Pingless: what's the program do, why's it sitting in /usr/lib?
[22:16] <antones97> can anyone help me with change my username?
[22:17] <antones97> or can someone tell me if they can see where im from by the username
[22:17] <antones97> ?
[22:17] <ikonia> antones97: create a new user, delete the old one
[22:17] <Pingless> rypervenche, EriC^_: I've got a Lenovo Yoga Pro 2. Its orientation-based screen rotation doesn't work, so I found this repo: https://github.com/pfps/yoga-laptop
[22:17] <jatt> antones97: they?
[22:17] <jatt> antones97: who?
[22:17] <Pingless> building the screen/ folder installed an executable called "orientation" in /usr/lib
[22:17] <rypervenche> antones97: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/change_username
[22:18] <enchilado> antones97: are you talking about your IRC username?
[22:18] <ikonia> Pingless: does it work if you run it manually ?
[22:18] <Pingless> yes
[22:18] <antones97> Yes
[22:18] <ikonia> Pingless: is it a foreground or background daemon ?
[22:18] <ikonia> Pingless: or is it an on demand binary
[22:18] <Pingless> ikonia: yes, running it manually from the console produces a pile of what looks like debug output, and it behaves correctly
[22:19] <enchilado> antones97: your hostname is ~ants@76-250-88-88.lightspeed.austtx.sbcglobal.net and your ircname is "ants"
[22:19] <ikonia> Pingless: when you run it from the console, do you get a command prompt back, or does it just spew stuff into the terminal until you quit it
[22:19] <antones97> enchilado: yes!
[22:19] <Pingless> ikonia: the latter
[22:19] <ikonia> Pingless: so thats probably why you're having problems, it's running as a daemon, you can't just run it the same from the command line as you would as an init job
[22:19] <antones97> enchilado: how do i change the hostname like everyone else?
[22:20] <Pingless> ikonia: would you mind elaborating a little? I'm quite comfortable with command line stuff, but I'm hazy on the concept of daemons
[22:20] <Flannel> !cloak | antones97
[22:20] <ikonia> Pingless: easy way, manually test your init script - get that working, then deal how to make it "headless" and run at boot time
[22:25] <Pingless> ikonia: OK so simply shoving /usr/bin/orientation into rc.local and running that works
[22:25] <Pingless> how would you recommend I proceed to make it headless and run at boot?
[22:28] <ikonia> Pingless: how are you verifying it works ?
[22:29] <Pingless> sudo /etc/rc.local
[22:29] <ikonia> Pingless: so thats actually run at boot time as the last thing
[22:29] <ikonia> Pingless: so does that work at boot time ?
[22:30] <Pingless> will that work even if it never terminates?
[22:30] <ikonia> thats going to be the problem
[22:30] <ikonia> you'll need to background it
[22:30] <ikonia> the other thing to consider is, is this meant to be a userspace program ?
[22:31] <Pingless> ikonia: I don't believe so. It seems like it's intended to be run in the background
[22:34] <Pingless> ikonia: This file (from the readme) mentions that the program is installed in /usr/bin, and mentions how to send it commands via pkill, but never mentions setting it up as a daemon
[22:34] <Pingless> https://github.com/pfps/yoga-laptop/blob/master/docs/Orientation%20and%20rotation
[22:34] <ikonia> Pingless: background it, or look at it's arguments for daemon mode
[22:35] <Pingless> ikonia: I've double-checked, and it definitely doesn't have any daemon arguments
[22:36] <VimFleed> Hello
[22:36] <Pingless> ikonia: What's my best option for backgrounding it?
[22:36] <ikonia> nohup and &
[22:36] <betehess_> hi, I have a MacBookPro with Ubuntu 14.04, with 3 encrypted partitions. I am not able to boot the system. I get the grub menu, then the next screen is black with a cursor in the upper left corner
[22:36] <ikonia> or just &
[22:37] <betehess_> I can't do anything from here...      Any idea?
[22:37] <ikonia> don't encypt the disk
[22:37] <ikonia> get it working
[22:37] <bubbasaures> betehess_, fresh install?
[22:37] <ikonia> then re-doit with encyption
[22:37] <ikonia> walk before running
[22:37] <betehess_> it was working ok for like 3 days, then just started doing that
[22:37] <Pingless> ikonia: if I use & in rc.local, is there any way to see the output when it's run? To see why it's not working?
[22:37] <ikonia> betehess_: ok, so what happened in the 3 days
[22:37] <betehess_> ikonia, I need encryption because of my company
[22:38] <ikonia> Pingless: redirect output ?
[22:38] <bubbasaures> betehess_, You use any proprietary graphic drivers in ubuntu?
[22:38] <shadaloo> hello
[22:38] <betehess_> ikonia, I had just installed docker and restarted
[22:38] <betehess_> there was no update in that session
[22:38] <ikonia> betehess_: what did docker update in the system
[22:38] <shadaloo> i installed ubuntu to a usb drive
[22:38] <ikonia> how did you install it ?
[22:39] <betehess_> bubbasaures, nothing special, that's a very standard install
[22:39] <betehess_> ikonia: to my knowledge, nothing
[22:39] <ikonia> betehess_: well it must have done
[22:39] <a_> hey linuxers
[22:39] <ikonia> betehess_: you've installed software, that is a change in itself
[22:39] <ikonia> hence why I'm asking how did you install it
[22:39] <bubbasaures> betehess_, I had docker do this in the development 15.04 here was very strange.
[22:40] <bubbasaures> didn't debug it though
[22:40] <betehess_> ikonia, I had the very same problem last week, it was the same kind of install, but got stuck before I installed docker that time. I didn't know what to do and just reinstalled
[22:40] <shadaloo> after booting ubuntu 14 from a usbdrive on my laptop (VGA) my desktop (HDMI) display is no longer recognized and I cannot boot into the login screen
[22:40] <betehess_> but same problem again
[22:40] <shadaloo> any suggestions for a quick fix?
[22:40] <ikonia> betehess_: ok, so working through that problem would be key
[22:40] <betehess_> ikonia, yes
[22:40] <rypervenche> betehess_: It might be a good idea to manually open the luks device and find what was installed in your apt log files. Maybe something from the term.log or history.log will give us some more information.
[22:40] <betehess_> I am kinda stuck right now
[22:40] <ikonia> betehess_: so boot if you can into single user mode
[22:40] <betehess_> I only get access to grub
[22:41] <ikonia> betehess_: or start again, and pay attention to what's happening on your system
[22:41] <Jeeves_Moss> what is the command to look for a string within files in a directory recursivly?
[22:41] <ikonia> grep -r
[22:41] <bubbasaures> shadaloo, At the choice menu of try or install or test the dic or memory hit f6 and choose nomodeset
[22:41] <Jeeves_Moss> ikonia, so grep -ri <string> /<path?
[22:41] <ikonia> Jeeves_Moss: that will work
[22:41] <bubbasaures> disc* err
[22:41] <Jeeves_Moss> ikonia, thanks.
[22:41] <shadaloo> bubbasaures: sounds good will give it a go
[22:42] <bubbasaures> shadaloo, should tell you the boot from there I think it is ctrl-x
[22:43] <betehess_> ikonia, in recovery mode, it blocks on: node #0, CPUs: #1
[22:43] <ikonia> sounds like a kernel panic
[22:43] <ikonia> betehess_: how did you install docker
[22:43] <betehess_> huh
[22:43] <betehess_> ikonia: just added the ppa, and apt-get install. didn't even run it
[22:43] <ikonia> betehess_: there we go then
[22:44] <ikonia> unsupported PPA
[22:44] <ikonia> (I'll bet)
[22:44] <betehess_> ikonia: last time, I had the very same problem, no docker involved
[22:44] <ikonia> betehess_: then you need to know what those packages where
[22:44] <betehess_> and same thing: nothing special happened
[22:44] <betehess_> ok, can try to boot with a key
[22:44] <ikonia> boot with a key ?
[22:45] <betehess_> ikonia, the live cd
[22:45] <ikonia> why ?
[22:45] <ikonia> what are you planning to do ?
[22:46] <shadaloo> bubbasaures: I'm at the grub2 menu (hold shift at boot) and pressing f6 does not do anything
[22:46] <shadaloo> I think I misunderstood you
[22:46] <bubbasaures> shadaloo, This an install or a live boot, I read that as a install.
[22:46] <bubbasaures> sorrey live boot
[22:46] <shadaloo> bubbasaures: it's an install on a USBdrive
[22:47] <bubbasaures> shadaloo, A full install, or you have loaded grub than the iso?
[22:47] <betehess_> ikonia: only way to inspect the last logs from the encrypted partitions
[22:47] <ikonia> betehess_: what last logs ?
[22:47] <shadaloo> bubbasaures: it's a full install
[22:47] <ikonia> what logs are you going to look at ?
[22:47] <betehess_> ikonia: didn't you tell me to inspect what packages were installed?
[22:47] <bubbasaures> shadaloo, Anyway at grub it is e for edit than replace quiet splash with nomodeset
[22:47] <ikonia> betehess_: the previous time when it broke
[22:48] <ikonia> betehess_: this time I think you can be confident it's docked/dependencies
[22:48] <shadaloo> bubbasaures: thanks will give it a shot
[22:48] <betehess_> ikonia: I really doubt it :-)
[22:48] <ikonia> betehess_: why do you doubt it ?
[22:49] <betehess_> ikonia: because it's the very same problem than last week, which didn't involve docker, and last time as well, I didn't do anything special
[22:49] <bubbasaures> shadaloo, cool, here's the bot link on this, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[22:49] <ikonia> betehess_: but you have no idea what the packages where last time or what they changed
[22:50] <ikonia> betehess_: this one has a kernel panic/lock up on cpu, which is normally caused by packages (kernel/libc/something) moving outside the supported range
[22:50] <betehess_> ikonia: last time, I had not installed anything during the session before I shutdowned the laptop
[22:50] <ikonia> as the docker ppa will pull in later versions of the packages for dependencies, and maybe even do a kernel update, it's reasonable
[22:50] <ikonia> betehess_: you said you had this exact same problem installing different packages
[22:50] <ikonia> betehess_: now you say you installed nothing
[22:51] <betehess_> ikonia: then I wasn't clear, sorry for the confusion
[22:51] <ikonia> look at the boot process see what the last thing before the lock up was
[22:51] <ikonia> then you can see what it's being caused
[22:51] <betehess_> ikonia: last time I reinstalled quickly cause I needed a working system
[22:51] <betehess_> ikonia: what log files are better to look at?
[22:56] <betehess_> ikonia: now that I think about it, I won't find anything in the logs because I am not even prompted for my passphrase to unlock the / partition
[22:58] <a_> Tell me, Ubuntu; why should I use you and not something else?
[22:59] <jatt> try it, decide yourself
[23:04] <dts|pokeball> whats the ubuntu so site?
[23:05] <hadifarnoud> this alias is supposed to give me numerical permission
[23:05] <hadifarnoud> alias lso="ls -alG | awk '{k=0;for(i=0;i<=8;i++)k+=((substr(\$1,i+2,1)~/[rwx]/)*2^(8-i));if(k)printf(\" %0o \",k);print}'"
[23:05] <hadifarnoud> it's giving me the wrong number. for example, if permission is 775, it shows me 765
[23:05] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: wow
[23:06] <hadifarnoud> EriC^_: what?
[23:06] <jatt> hadifarnoud: stat <file>
[23:06] <EriC^_> nothing i thought you meant the uid of the owner
[23:07] <hadifarnoud> no EriC^_. it's standard ls command with numerical permission
[23:07] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: jatt is right! stat would have it there for you
[23:07] <hadifarnoud> yeah, but doesn't work quite as ls
[23:08] <hadifarnoud> I want to see it for all files in a directory EriC^_ jatt
[23:08] <Zarthus> ls is meant to be read by humans :|
[23:08] <jatt> hadifarnoud: stat -c%a <file>
[23:08] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: so for i in ..; do stat ...; done
[23:09] <jatt> hadifarnoud: ls | xargs -i stat -c%a \{\}
[23:09] <hadifarnoud> jatt: that works, except the filenames are missing
[23:09] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: echo it before each maybe
[23:09] <jatt> hadifarnoud: man stat (%c option) :-)
[23:10] <hadifarnoud> cheers, will figure it out
[23:12] <str> Hi everyone!
[23:13] <str> If I want to make an image of a disk, should I do dd if=/sdx  or dd if=/sdx1 ?
[23:14] <bekks> str: Neither nor, since both approaches are wrong.
[23:14] <str> bekks, why are they wrong?
[23:14] <bekks> str: Do you want to create a disk image or a partition image?
[23:15] <str> bekks, I'm confused, that's why I'm asking. I think I want to do a partition image
[23:15] <str> but I'm not sure
[23:15] <bekks> str: What are you trying to do?
[23:16] <hadifarnoud> jatt: I just got one issue, how can I space them out?
[23:16] <hadifarnoud> ls | xargs -i stat -c%a%G%U%n \{\}
[23:17] <bekks> hadifarnoud: Space what out?
[23:17] <str> bekks, I bouth an SDD which comes with a some files and I'm not sure not interested in knowing the partition type, so I cant to make an image of them to restore them later if I need them.
[23:17] <hadifarnoud> bekks: all -c parameters are printed out next to each other without any space between them
[23:17] <hadifarnoud> just try ls | xargs -i stat -c%a%G%U%n \{\}
[23:17] <bekks> str: Why dont you just create an archive of those files?
[23:18] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: ls | xargs -i stat -c"%a %G %U %n" \{\}
[23:19] <str> bekks, because I don't know if the sdd has some boot options or anything special.. that's why I was uisng dd, I don't care what it is, just creare an image of the card and store it to restore it later.
[23:19] <hadifarnoud> cheers EriC^_
[23:19] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: it's kind of confusing you have the group before the owner, anwyays up to you
[23:19] <EriC^_> hadifarnoud: no problem
[23:19] <hadifarnoud> good point EriC^_
[23:20] <bekks> str: It doesnt have anything magical.
[23:29] <darkm_> Is there anyone that used FreeGate on ubuntu ?
[23:30] <daftykins> never heard of it, but if you explain your actual question someone might reply
[23:30] <bekks> darkm_: Maybe an actual question will be more targetting :)
[23:31] <FergusL> hello, anybody used the mail-stack-delivery package ? dovecot configuration looks almost fresh, everything is commented out
[23:31] <darkm_> FreeGate is a proxy for cencorship That's for windows, i wanna know if i can use it on ubuntu. the good thing about it, is it's speed. and if i can't use it on ubuntu please give me a name of a good free proxy that is as Fast, thank you
[23:32] <smaudet> Hey all, I know my answer won't be answered here, looking for direction - the ubuntu packages (launchpad) contain some canon printer drivers - I'm trying to install my canon 472 but I'm having a difficult time compiling these packages...so I'm looking for help/the package maintainer
[23:32] <smaudet> canon mx472 specifically
[23:32] <daftykins> darkm_: then likely no. sorry, but using something windows of that nature is highly unlikely and unsupported here
[23:33] <darkm_> daftykins, even if i want to use it on ubuntu ?
[23:34] <daftykins> darkm_: well it's not going to work natively is it, so no
[23:34] <darkm_> Then anyone know of a good and fast proxy for ubuntu ?
[23:34] <darkm_> and Free
[23:35] <bekks> darkm_: squid
[23:35] <daftykins> i think you're after something like TOR, in which case no, no ideas.
[23:35] <darkm_> bekks,it's work for cencorship ?
[23:36] <bekks> darkm_: It is a proxy server.
[23:36] <darkm_> bekks , is it gonna work for the matter of cencorship ?
[23:38] <bekks> darkm_: It works as a proxy server. Whats teh difference between "a proxy server" and "a proxy server for censorship"?
[23:38] <darkm_> bekks , :) thank you
[23:39] <Cogito4816> Hey, all.  Is there a surefire way to get all BDs to work on Ubuntu?
[23:40] <March0514s> Hello everyone!
[23:40] <Cogito4816> Or is that just a pipe dream
[23:40] <Cogito4816> Hi, March0514s
[23:40] <Cogito4816> Happy Holidays to everyone, btw
[23:40] <March0514s> I'm curious about some info I heard, and can't find anything on the web...
[23:41] <March0514s> Is it true that Ubuntu records everything I type?
[23:41] <March0514s> In a way that it can be found through forensics?
[23:41] <bekks> No.
[23:41] <daftykins> Cogito4816: menuless playback can be had by installing makemkv and substituting some libraries, followed by using a capable player.
[23:42] <space_llama> March0514s: No. It does not.
[23:42] <MonkeyDust> March0514s  system settings > security & privacy
[23:42] <Cogito4816> daftykins, I tried that.  I had installed MakeMKV some time ago, and now the trial period is over.  I attempted to download the latest BETA version, but either couldn't find the right one, or that's no longer an option
[23:42] <space_llama> That's one of the lovely things about open source. That kind of stuff would make a hell of a fuss.
[23:43] <daftykins> Cogito4816: it's free until it goes final, check out their website. you need to insert a freely available license key
[23:43] <Cogito4816> Ohh
[23:43] <Cogito4816> Any idea when it wil go final?
[23:43] <Cogito4816> Also, is Canonical working on getting the keys for BDs?
[23:43] <daftykins> well then it'd be pay for still i think
[23:44] <daftykins> that's not what will make bluray playbac work
[23:44] <daftykins> *playback
[23:44] <Cogito4816> What is the issue?
[23:45] <Cogito4816> Also, daftykins, where do I find these license keys?
[23:45] <daftykins> Cogito4816: sorry i'm not browsing a site for you :)
[23:45] <daftykins> i've yet to actually do the license key thing for my install too, as i just got this working the other day
[23:45] <Cogito4816> No problem, dafty.  I'm looking around as we speak.  Just thought you might know
[23:46] <March0514s> well, thank you guys!
[23:46] <space_llama> No problem. Happy holidays :)
[23:46] <daftykins> cool :)
[23:46] <Cogito4816> I'll give you a link if I find it
[23:46] <March0514s> For you too
[23:46] <ikonia> why would he want a link ?
[23:46] <ikonia> you are the one who needs the key
[23:46] <Cogito4816> To where the keys
[23:46] <Cogito4816> He said he has yet to do it
[23:46] <daftykins> Cogito4816: well i don't know for sure as i'm not staff, nor in development, but i'd imagine it's just like DVD playback, technically it's not permitted and we're breaking the law playing one on Linux.
[23:46] <Cogito4816> So he will need it eventually
[23:47] <Cogito4816> Or so I assume
[23:47] <daftykins> ikonia: i use it too! :D
[23:47] <ikonia> ahhhh
[23:47] <daftykins> it wasn't able to work out playback on TV series of course, it just picks the longest episode or largest episode i think - but i'm sure film playback would be fine
[23:48] <Cogito4816> I think I may have found it
[23:50] <Cogito4816> daftykins, it's been a while since I did this.  In MakeMKV, I have to set it to stream, correct?  How do I receive that stream in VLC?  Do you know?
[23:50] <Cogito4816> Nvm, I found it
[23:50] <Cogito4816> Awesome!  I got it!
[23:50] <daftykins> i'm using it with XBMC so it's auto for me
[23:51] <Cogito4816> daftykins, you're awesome.  Thank you for the help
[23:52] <Cogito4816> daftykins: http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1053
[23:53] <daftykins> no problemo, thanks for the link :>
[23:53] <daftykins> an equal trade!
