[00:00] <Shirakawasuna> unixist: I'm just thinking of packages that trigger module rebuilds after the get installed - there's some system, for which I don't remember the name, that finds all installed kernels and builds the module for them
[00:02] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:02] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: ok, sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[00:03] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[00:04] <unixist> Shirakawasuna: DKMS looks interesting, but it happens client-side. I was hoping that ubuntu/debian/fedora/centos etc. would have mechanisms for identifying a package that must be built against the latest version of the kernel when it gets revisioned
[00:04] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: _> I'm writing an out-of-tree kernel module that I want to make available in at least ubuntu's repo. Since a module must be built against the same kernel version that is currently running, how do I go about ensuring that the module gets built against all versions of the kernel that are available in ubuntu's repo?
[00:05] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: oops
[00:05] <unixist> Shirakawasuna: So that it would happen server-side and be made available as a new package version in apt, for example
[00:05] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9643034/
[00:05] <Shirakawasuna> unixist: Oh sorry, I don't know anything about that
[00:05] <Obiwantje> Bashing-om, Jordan_U --> 3.16.7-031607-generic <--- It worked!
[00:05] <Obiwantje> thanks so much guys
[00:06] <Shirakawasuna> unixist: there's a channel called #ubuntu-kernel, maybe they'll be helpful!
[00:06] <unixist> Shirakawasuna: sweet, thanks
[00:07] <Bashing-om> Obiwantje: Good things do happen. Jordan_U said it would work !
[00:07] <Obiwantje> totally
[00:07] <Obiwantje> I am totally back in business
[00:08] <Obiwantje> what a great achievement
[00:08] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: notfadsssssss Now we have that 'sda' appear ! .. so what is the deal ?
[00:08] <Obiwantje> thanks once again - and no doubt I will be back soon with more silly issues
[00:08] <notfadsssssss> bashing-om: I did a cmos bios reset last night
[00:09] <Shirakawasuna> ha, figured it out
[00:09] <Bashing-om> Obiwantje: Pleased to help, I too learned a bit .
[00:09] <Shirakawasuna> for whatever reason, the package python-cairo was one from saucy and wasn't upgrading, had to force remove it and reinstall the trusty version
[00:09] <Bashing-om> notfadsssssss: So recon that reset the bus controllers ?
[00:10] <notfadsssssss> bashing-om: removing the battery on board? yup. had to go to #hardware and stuff
[00:11] <Bashing-om> notfadsssssss: Had the thought, just not the certainty to say so .. we live and learn .
[00:14] <notfadsssssss> bashing-om: oh i could be wrong, I am just making an educated guess since thats the only variable that had been changed to cause the reaction?
[00:14] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt
[00:14] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:15] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/boot/efi
[00:15] <k2gremlin> Hello all, I am trying to setup a perl script and when I run "perl Makefile.PY" it tells me, Can't open perl script "Makefile.py": No such file or directory
[00:15] <k2gremlin> thoughts?
[00:15] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[00:16] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: linux is case-sensitive
[00:16] <EriC^^> and .py is python
[00:16] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:17] <k2gremlin> hmm
[00:17] <k2gremlin> trying to setup a squid analyzer..
[00:17] <k2gremlin> install guide says..
[00:17] <k2gremlin> perl Makefile.PL
[00:17] <k2gremlin> 	make
[00:17] <k2gremlin> 	make install
[00:17] <RNeville> I'm trying to set up sounds in hexchat running under Ubuntu 14.04, have no idea how to get sounds into machine
[00:17] <k2gremlin> So is Python not working right?
[00:17] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: sudo chroot /mnt
[00:18] <RNeville> apparently, no default sound files!
[00:18] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: you're typing makefile.py
[00:18] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:18] <k2gremlin> EriC^^, Yes
[00:18] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: it's Makefile.pl
[00:18] <k2gremlin> yep shoot me now... must be tired.
[00:19] <k2gremlin> Thanks EriC^^
[00:19] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: no problem
[00:19] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: grub-install --recheck /dev/sdb
[00:19] <guest_> RNeville why not use xhcat?
[00:20] <k2gremlin> EriC^^, Still not working lol
[00:20] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: Makefile.PL maybe?
[00:20] <k2gremlin> tried all different sorts of upper and lower
[00:20] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: what's it say?
[00:21] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: no errors reported
[00:21] <callahan> qt
[00:21] <k2gremlin> EriC^^, http://pastebin.com/8Q1GNJBU
[00:21] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: ok, update-grub
[00:21] <k2gremlin> Tried with sudo as well
[00:21] <k2gremlin> no go
[00:21] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:22] <EriC^^> k2gremlin: is it in your home dir? type ls
[00:22] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: efibootmgr -v
[00:22] <k2gremlin> EriC^^, 1 sec.. was in wrong dir. its working now :P
[00:22] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: pastebinit?
[00:22] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: yeah
[00:22] <RNeville> guest_: don't want to pay for xchat - if I had more funds I would be glad too!
[00:23] <guest_> RNeville, you don't have to pay for it. its as free as hexchat. just grab it from the software centre
[00:23] <jenia> hello. Is ubuntu compiled for i7?
[00:23] <k1l> both xchat and hexchat are free on ubuntu. hexchat is the successor of xchat
[00:24] <RNeville> didn't know xchat was free!
[00:24] <theadmin> jenia: i7? As in, Intel Core i7? You don't have to compile for a particular processor... Just grab the AMD64 version
[00:24] <k1l> jenia: its build for all PC cpus
[00:24] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9643101/
[00:24] <theadmin> RNeville: It's free on UNIX, but not on Windows
[00:24] <squinty> RNeville:  if you are talking windows side then use ychat (xchat revised)
[00:24] <RNeville> which is better, or which, I should say, is better for a newbie to irc
[00:24] <k1l> guest_: RNeville hexchat is the successor of xchat. so better use hexchat
[00:24] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: thats interesting ...
[00:25] <MrWinner> Hello All
[00:25] <RNeville> theadmin: whow , I really learned something, thx
[00:25] <guest_> k1l, i just threw xchat out there as he was having trouble getting hexchat to work
[00:25] <RNeville> theadmin: I'm on Ubuntu 14.04
[00:25] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: what is?
[00:25] <theadmin> RNeville: The reason was that Windows is a proper pain when you want to compile some software using unix stuff (like GTK), so the developer has to deal with tons of trouble just to get it working.
[00:25] <iceroot_> jenia: no, ubuntu is build for i686 or /amd64 but not for specic cpus inside these architectures
[00:26] <theadmin> RNeville: But yeah, on Ubuntu it's free
[00:26] <RNeville> Still no default sounds to use with hexchat, though, any ideas?
[00:26] <pupil> RNeville: use pidgin
[00:26] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: seems wrong does it not? boot order
[00:26] <Guest49171> if same games is available on windows as well as on ubuntu does it use same amount of resources on either os or one is better? or it depends on particular game?
[00:26] <bazhang> hexchat is free on windows theadmin
[00:26] <RNeville> theadmin: very informative, thx, again
[00:26] <daftykins> Guest49171: down to the game.
[00:26] <iceroot_> Guest49171: depends on the implementation
[00:26] <theadmin> bazhang: I know, I'm using it. I'm talking about XChat though.
[00:27] <iceroot_> Guest49171: opengl, directx, driver and so on
[00:27] <jenia> okay. thnaks
[00:27] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: hmm, ubuntu is first on the list, the rest of the entries were deleted in the cmos reset
[00:27] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: is your ram from another pc or custom installed or something?
[00:27] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: any additions, etc?
[00:27] <notfadsssssss> eric^^ the whole thing is custom installed
[00:28] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: ok, there's a guy who said he installed the ram as instructed by ASUS but the MSI suggested a different order, and that solved his cann't find required map name error
[00:28] <theadmin> Guest49171: Please change nickname. Also, yeah, basically. I find that VALVe titles, such as Half-Life 2 or Team Fortress 2 or Portal work better on Ubuntu for one.
[00:28] <theadmin> Guest49171: But some other games work better on Windows
[00:28] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: intel recommends pressing on exit, then reset bios to defaults, power off server and unplug it from the outlet for 20 seconds then plug it back in
[00:28] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: Additions? idk whats native and added after the fact.... that is interesting
[00:29] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: but i guess resetting the cmos is pretty much the same?
[00:29] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: yup it would be consdiered a hard reset taking out the battery
[00:29] <daftykins> 'hard reset' is not the term for removing the CMOS battery at all :)
[00:30] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try to switch the order of the ram maybe
[00:30] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: what do you think?
[00:31] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: i dont know enough about ram and order of things ~ I have 24gb in there....12x2gb sticks so I wouldnt know where to begin
[00:31] <EriC^^> woah
[00:32] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: it was very cheap 5$ per I got a guy who does hardware updates for companies and for 10% their new bill they give him old hardware
[00:33] <iceroot_> notfadsssssss: 12x2gb sounds like a server setup, they normally want ECC ram and have special requirenments
[00:33] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: there all ecc
[00:34] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: and there all the same ram nothing different
[00:36] <monkeyjuice> notfadsssssss:  are there four memory slots, your using 2 of  them, it might matter what ones your using ,
[00:36] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: it is a server :P but that shouldnt prohibit any action different from a pc... there are 12 slots
[00:37] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: 6 for each
[00:37] <monkeyjuice> oh ;)
[00:37] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: got a steal on the setup
[00:37] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: oh ok
[00:37] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: hey if your ever in the tri-state I got a guy lol :P
[00:37] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: is it a msi board?
[00:37] <daftykins> it always matters which slots the RAM is in
[00:38] <betternickname> i have usb headset but after plugging in i have to go to settings and set it as default, is it possible to make it automatically default so it would be redefaulted once i plug it in?
[00:38] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: eric^^: Intel® Server Board S5520HC
[00:38] <RNeville> don't mean to spam, but need to ask again, how do I get sounds into my Ubuntu install?
[00:38] <betternickname> not sure but i guess i would have to redefault it everytime i reboot system
[00:38] <RNeville> I have no default sounds in Hexchat to set as defaults
[00:38] <k1l> RNeville: what do you mean?
[00:39] <RNeville> When I browser to set default sounds for notices in Hexchat, I find I have no default sounds installed to set
[00:39] <RNeville> Hope this makes sense
[00:40] <k1l> just choose some soundfiles
[00:40] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: ok, type exit, then restart
[00:40] <choc> notfadsssss: have you fixed your raid issue?
[00:41] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:42] <k1l> RNeville: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1525080
[00:42] <notfadsssssss> iceroot_: sorry I thought eric said that.
[00:44] <choc> notfadsssss: have you fix your raid issue?
[00:44] <RNeville> k1l: thx
[00:44] <notfadsssssss> choc: I wish
[00:45] <notfadsssssss> choc: efi shenanigans? idk how to classify it correctly anymore
[00:45] <JNixx> Anyone know of a good replacement for OneNote on Ubuntu?
[00:46] <daftykins> onenote is just a text editor on steroids practically, i'm not sure how you can't repeat that functionality
[00:46] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: i think it's a hardware issue
[00:47] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: i think it MIGHT be the raid controller tbh but I dont know enough I am use to the perc system by dell, not this current one
[00:47] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: intel recommend to remove all ram but one dimm
[00:47] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: tried lol ><
[00:48] <EriC^^> they also say all processors but one
[00:48] <EriC^^> :P
[00:48] <RNeville> any help finding where hexchat folder is on my ubuntu install would be appreciated
[00:48] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: also it says if you press f2 you can change quiet boot to disabled and it'll be more verbose
[00:49] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: already did that ;\
[00:50] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: are there any extra add-ins you can remove?
[00:50] <Steve_Jobs> looking to monitor my ubuntu server with some VMs
[00:50] <EriC^^> just need the board one dimm and the drive
[00:50] <Steve_Jobs> was going to set up pushbullet notifications
[00:50] <EriC^^> get to the efi shell and try map -r
[00:50] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk
[00:50] <Steve_Jobs> can anyone suggest an OSS project?
[00:52] <grilled-cheese> bekks: so the solution to my earlier problem turned out to be switching back to zfs sharenfs from /etc/exports, then changing the zfs inheritacl property to passthrough
[00:52] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: maybe update the firmware?
[00:52] <grilled-cheese> that was painful, but it's good now
[00:53] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: oh i tried alot of stuff like that days ago lol
[00:53] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: eric^^: fs0 blk0 blk1 hd48f0b             but remeber the live cd is still there
[00:57] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try boot dump -v
[00:57] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: boot is not recognized?
[00:58] <sacrosantic> anyone knows of an app from ubuntu centre that works the same as ms publisher?
[00:58] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: bcfg boot dump -v
[00:59] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: bcfg unrecognized
[01:00] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: do you have another drive around
[01:01] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: it sees the flash drive no problem, it wont see the drive, drive is mounted fine though from the live usb
[01:01] <mietek> I’m looking for some help with Upstart "start on socket"
[01:01] <EriC^^> kind of odd
[01:01] <mietek> With initd, there is a "nowait" option
[01:02] <mietek> With systemd, there is an "Accept=true" option
[01:02] <mietek> How do you do the same with upstart?
[01:03] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: might be a bad raid contrtoller tbh i am kinda out of ideas since it DID work with windows server
[01:03] <AlphaTech> How would I make my own telnet slideshow similar to the one at towel.blinkenlights.nl?
[01:03] <RNeville> when your new to an os everything is difficult
[01:04] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try mount blk1 efi1:
[01:04] <RNeville> I can't even locate the Hexhat folder
[01:04] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: i wonder why there's blk0 and blk1, the live usb only has 1 partition
[01:04] <RNeville> I know it should be under my home directory, then under user
[01:04] <bazhang> RNeville, .hidden folder
[01:05] <RNeville> bazhang: can I ask why it would be a hidden file?
[01:05] <bazhang> thats the norm RNeville
[01:05] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: i meant, mount blk1 efi1
[01:05] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: succes - force file system to mount      map efi1: 0x169   map: invale sname efi1
[01:05] <k1l> for better reading of the users eyes
[01:05] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: arg kk trying that
[01:06] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: efl1 : removeable block device - alias blk1
[01:06] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try efi1:
[01:07] <notfadsssssss> eriv^^: kk im there
[01:08] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: ok, try ls
[01:08] <EriC^^> is it the live usb?
[01:08] <notfadsssssss> eric^^:  ls/dir: no dir found
[01:11] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: windows was working, you deleted the partitions, then used the ubuntu installer to make the new ones?
[01:12] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: no just rewrote the full disk
[01:12] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: you selected the erase everything and install ubuntu?
[01:12] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: yup
[01:13] <taaclbc> hello
[01:14] <taaclbc> I have a problem that I can't seem to figure out
[01:15] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try typing exit
[01:15] <EriC^^> what happens?
[01:15] <taaclbc> I just installed Xubuntu 14.04.1, chose English language for the installation,
[01:15] <notfadsssssss> it exits >.>
[01:15] <EriC^^> what do you get?
[01:15] <taaclbc> then once installed, added another language (which worked fine)
[01:15] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: blank black screen
[01:16] <taaclbc> however when I tried to put the secondary language on top of the list in gnome-language-selector, it crashed
[01:16] <taaclbc> with an org.freedesktop.Accounts.Error.PermissionDenied exception
[01:16] <rnetuser> Hey question: is there a way to get bandwidth usage of a single process? Something similar to time except for network io?
[01:17] <taaclbc> I looked it up, but most launchpad entries say it has been fixed
[01:18] <taaclbc> I did an update && upgrade, to no avail
[01:19] <taaclbc> I don't know much about Ubuntu (yet) and I'm not sure which permission is being denied
[01:19] <notfadsssssss> taaclbc: add sudo infront of command?
[01:20] <choc> taaclbc: http://askubuntu.com/questions/149876/how-can-i-install-one-language-by-command-line
[01:20] <EriC^^> notfadsssssss: try to boot to the efi shell
[01:21] <taaclbc> notfadsssssss, wouldn't that just set the secondary language for root ?
[01:21] <taaclbc> choc, thanks, looking it up
[01:24] <taaclbc> choc, this page explains how to install language support (which is good) but I could already do that ; the graphical language selector hangs when *choosing* the preferred language
[01:24] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk there
[01:25] <notfadsssssss> eriv^^: i think the raid controller has to be at fault tbh
[01:26] <squinty> c
[01:26] <grilled-cheese> who do you report spam PM messages to on freenode?

[01:30] <neldogz> Hi all, my ubuntu 14.10 system booted to a black screen with only the mouse cursor visible after manually removing the proprietary Nvidia drivers using the --uninstall option at the end of the script file provided by Nvidia. Has anyone here run into this problem?
[01:30] <notfadsssssss> neldogz: nomodeset
[01:31] <neldogz> notfadsssssss: grub?
[01:31] <guest_> how would you change the splash screen?
[01:31] <notfadsssssss> neldogz: have you booted it before? or is this initial installl reboot?
[01:32] <neldogz> notfadsssssss: i upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10 and tried the newest driver from Nvidia, but theres a bug where at times the screen flickers.. so i removed it and now this.. It booted fine after the install.
[01:33] <notfadsssssss> neldogz: and yes in grub
[01:33] <neldogz> notfadsssssss: will give that a try now
[01:33] <daftykins> neldogz: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:33] <notfadsssssss> ^^listen to him
[01:36] <Niko_Master>  /server irc.rizon.net
[01:36] <neldogz> daftykins: the problem is i cant even get to a terminal.. all i have is a black screen and a cursor
[01:36] <daftykins> SSH?
[01:36] <neldogz> i am going to try recovery mode
[01:36] <taaclbc> wow
[01:37] <rnetuser> Thoughts anyone on monitoring the bandwidth usage of a single process? Perferably something like `time` except which reports net stats versus wall/sys clock
[01:37] <taaclbc> my problem is only 5 years old
[01:37] <taaclbc> >_<
[01:37] <daftykins> taaclbc: ah, brand new then
[01:38] <taaclbc> daftykins, I'm a sucker for antiques
[01:40] <neldogz> daftykins: ssh is not enabled on this system.. But using recovery mode i was able to drop into a terminal. Reviewing the Xorg.0.log file i can see an error: Failed tl load module glx
[01:40] <daftykins> neldogz: pastebin the file if you can, picking and choosing won't be accurate enough
[01:41] <neldogz> daftykins: ok will try
[01:41] <notfadsssssss> eric^^: kk im doing to sleep for now I go and see my buddy tomorrow I will let you know tomorrow what ends up happening!
[01:45] <taaclbc> w t h
[01:46] <taaclbc> just created another user and tried to set it to prefer a secondary language
[01:46] <taaclbc> and it works
[01:46]  * taaclbc is even more stumped
[01:47] <taaclbc> ...and now it works for the first user O_o
[01:47] <taaclbc> ...
[01:47] <taaclbc> ok, problem... er... solved ?
[01:47] <daftykins> well, all's well that ends well.
[01:47] <taaclbc> that made no sense to me
[01:47] <daftykins> logging out and in was probably all you needed, then
[01:48] <taaclbc> I didn't log out !
[01:48] <taaclbc> I just locked the session and opened another with my second user
[01:48] <daftykins> oh. nevermind then!
[01:48] <taaclbc> then came back and POOF it works
[01:49] <taaclbc> it's not just Windows that's voodoo computing ;-)
[01:49] <mybit> does anyone have any idea why /bin/login -f would be spawning bash processes that take up 100% of the cpu? im running ubuntu 14.04 on an odroid c1
[01:50] <mybit> i straced the pid of this bash process that is taking up 100% cpu and it is this http://pastebin.com/W36Q0yhj
[01:50] <daftykins> ARM v7 toy, oh dear - #ubuntu-arm ? :)
[01:51] <mybit> daftykins: thanks ididn't know there was that channel
[01:51] <daftykins> i didn't even know there was an appropriate ARM build
[01:52] <neldogz> daftykins: i was able to fix it by dropping into a terminal in recovery mode then installing nvidia-current. Then followed this article: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears
[01:52] <daftykins> that'll be the ghetto nvidia-304 then
[01:52] <daftykins> i don't need a guide on how to do that :)
[01:53] <daftykins> reading the log would've stated a clear path concluding in that
[01:59] <terakilobyte> Hello, sorry to bother. I'm a volunteer at a non-profit website and was wondering if I could talk to someone about how I'd create an ISO of ubuntu that's set up for fullstack javascript web development. The idea is to remove the initial setup of a development environment and give users an option to download the image and run it in a VM
[01:59] <Stanley00> !remasterys
[02:00] <daftykins> terakilobyte: why not install and set it up once, then zip and share virtualbox disk images?
[02:01] <daftykins> if you're going to have people virtualise, why not remove a step? :)
[02:01] <rsully> yeah, otherwise the ISO makes sense for livecds maybe?
[02:01] <terakilobyte> well, I didn't want to necessarily tie someone to virtual box, but more just have a preconfigured image that they could use in any VM
[02:01] <terakilobyte> or am I misunderstanding?
[02:01] <Stanley00> terakilobyte: here you are https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization :3
[02:01] <rsully> well, virtualbox is pretty ubiquitous
[02:01] <daftykins> i don't see what's wrong with providing images to a free virtualisation technology
[02:02] <daftykins> i see your point, but why make someone install at all :)
[02:02] <daftykins> anyway not to worry, both options catered for. NEXT!
[02:02] <terakilobyte> Thanks, appreciate it!
[02:03] <Sa[i]nT> Just set up a barebones ubuntu in a vm, build the environment you want like it yours, terakilobyte, copy+paste
[02:04] <rsully> Stanley00 is it supported to create a live image of ubuntu server?
[02:04] <Stanley00> rsully: well, it should work with any live Ubuntu cd
[02:04] <daftykins> these days i would just drop some money on digitalocean and spin up a VPS ;)
[02:04] <teward> rsully: i don't believe there's a 'live' server image out there, but keep in mind that 'server' running lie is a little interesting for your question, you're better off spinning up a VPS or a VM
[02:05] <rsully> I am inspired by smartos - I want to customize a server installation and be able to build it to an image, plug in a USB drive to my server and have it boot and run in ram
[02:06] <rsully> all persistent storage would be in separate volumes that the server would mount
[02:07] <daftykins> rsully: you realise that sounds just like a persistent live session? :>
[02:07] <rsully> don't persistant live sessions write to the usb disk for persistence?
[02:07] <daftykins> yeah on a partition
[02:07] <rsully> yeah this is nothing like that :p
[02:08] <rsully> well it is kind of
[02:08] <rsully> but its for a server
[02:08] <teward> rsully: but, why?
[02:08] <daftykins> i genuinely can't think of a situation where you would ever want to do that
[02:08] <teward> rsully: i can understand this if you need a temporary testing environment, but the 'server' stuff is not designed to be persistent
[02:08] <teward> rsully: therefore, what's the situation you would need this for?
[02:08] <teward> rsully: if you're simply looking for a portable, usable-anywhere server environment, virtual machines work wonders
[02:09] <rsully> no one moment, writing it up :p
[02:09]  * teward yawns
[02:09] <rsully> I would be able to customize an image that I know has a working state. If something breaks I just boot the old image, if I want to upgrade I create a new image and reboot onto it. Same concept as SmartOS: https://youtube.com/watch?v=ieGWbo94geE
[02:10] <rsully> the server would boot with my customizations (kvm, zfs, etc.) and mount my ZFS storage pools and load configuration as necessary (e.g. root ssh key, network config) from the storage pool
[02:11] <daftykins> or you could disk image backups regularly :)
[02:11] <daftykins> or snapshot with virt tech
[02:11] <rsully> I really like the ideas in the video there, I suggest you take a look if you're interested
[02:11] <linman32> hi, i am using 14.10 and have audio problems. youtube audio works, but video audio doesn't work
[02:12] <linman32> can anyone please help?
[02:12] <rsully> I know there are other ways to do it like real backups, etc.. but then I'm wasting HDDs for my host OS, and upgrades that could mess up system files are much harder to roll back from (especially if I'm not using ZFS as my root filesystem for OS)
[02:12] <daftykins> doesn't sound appropriate for servers to me
[02:13] <rsully> daftykins my argument is pretty much just paraphrasing some of that video :/ I really think this is a good way to run my system
[02:14] <daftykins> good stuff
[02:14] <linman32> i mean to say that running avi files, the audio doesn't work. online video/audio works
[02:14] <daftykins> sounds like codecs
[02:15] <Stanley00> ...or video player problems
[02:16] <linman32> both vlc and "Videos" app don't play audio on avi file
[02:19] <machiel> 啊哈哈啊
[02:19] <machiel> hello,boys
[02:20] <blackangelpr> hi there
[02:20] <machiel> 有人吗？
[02:21] <blackangelpr> machiel, !cn
[02:21] <machiel> 有人用这个软件吗？
[02:21] <blackangelpr> machiel wo pu shi tao
[02:21] <Stanley00> blackangelpr: lol
[02:22] <blackangelpr> :)
[02:22] <blackangelpr> it means i dont understand i was not joking just in case :P
[02:23] <linman32> how do i try reinstalling linux codecs. there might be an audio codec problem

[02:24] <OerHeks> note the dvd part, css script to unlock dvd media
[02:29] <d1str0> Hey guys, I have a machine with only 4 SATA ports. I have 3 SATA HDDs, 1 SSD, and a SATA DVD drive. My goal is to install Ubuntu on the SSD, from disk (DVD). Then, when I'm installed, unplug the DVD drive and plug in all three HDDs
[02:29] <d1str0> So I installed it on the SSD, but now when I try and boot with the HDDs connected, Ubuntu's boot takes forever
[02:29] <d1str0> It's 14.10 desktop 64-bit
[02:29] <d1str0> I get to Starting configure network device, and then it hangs.
[02:29] <d1str0> Is there any way to get it to skip whatever it's doing right now?
[02:31] <teward> d1str0: it means that it's trying to verify network settings or get them from dhcp - you will have to wait for that prompt to finish, I believe
[02:32] <d1str0> teward: sorry, wasn't clear, it already said [OK] to that
[02:33] <d1str0> But it isn't saying what it's doing next
[02:33] <d1str0> it's been going for 5+ minutes
[02:37] <d1str0> teward: do you know what it's doing next?
[02:37] <teward> d1str0: not without seeing dmesg output or watching the whole list of things happening at boot (by default that's suppressed by the splash screen)
[02:37] <teward> erm, meant boot log data, not dmesg
[02:38] <d1str0> Stopping cold plug devices, stopping log initial device creation, starting configure network device [OK].
[02:38] <d1str0> All are OK up to that point
[02:38] <d1str0> I could take a screenshot if that helps?
[02:39] <d1str0> I have a feeling it's trying to do something with these new HDDs
[02:39] <d1str0> which I don't need it to do at this point. :P
[02:40] <bradley23228> whats a good budget video card? just set up dual monitors and my GeForce 210 is at 80%
[02:40] <thequietone> hello! does anyone know where I can find the latest drivers for Intel Bay Trail integrated graphics?
[02:40] <mojtaba> Hi, I have bought a new laptop. Do you know how can I transfer my programs and their settings to the new one? (Some of them can not be installed with apt-get like truecrypt.)
[02:41] <d1str0> teward: I'm going to try and run GParted on them and partition them to something easy to digest. Hopefully that will make it easier for ubuntu to boot
[02:42] <teward> d1str0: probably won't...
[02:44] <d1str0> well they are really old and haven't been used in a while
[02:44] <d1str0> can't hurt can it?
[02:46] <codepython777> anyone has a recommendation for a usb gps that will work with ubuntu?
[02:49] <taaclbc> well
[02:49] <taaclbc> thanks guys
[02:49] <taaclbc> and good luck to all those with unresolved issues
[02:49] <taaclbc> (ubuntu-related)
[02:49] <taaclbc> (*cough*)
[02:55] <Ma__> Anybody familiar wtih LTSP?
[02:57] <Alencar_23> Boa Noite galera!!
[02:59] <mojtaba> Hi, I have bought a new laptop. Do you know how can I transfer my programs and their settings to the new one? (Some of them can not be installed with apt-get like truecrypt.)
[03:04] <linuxmint> test
[03:07] <daftykins> mojtaba: disk image it over. as long as it's the same processor architecture it'll boot fine
[03:11] <ViperSix> o hai
[03:12] <choc> hi
[03:20] <pb_> #join zwiebelfreunde
[03:22] <Conny> Ive been trying to mount some windows-shares from 14.10 lately, using mount -t cifs with correct credentials i get mount error 5, input output error
[03:23] <monkeyofbrass> Hey guys was hoping someone could assist me in getting audio working on ubuntu 14.04
[03:24] <monkeyofbrass> in alsamixer my card is HDA intel PCH
[03:24] <monkeyofbrass> Realtek ALC668
[03:24] <Conny> After some googling, it have some similarities as the kernel-bug https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2014-September/048751.html . But this bug is closed in kernel 3.16. Any one else having this CIFS-issues
[03:25] <function9x> monkeyofbrass: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1363728
[03:27] <monkeyofbrass> function9x, so it appears that its a bug?
[03:37] <choc> hi, how to upgrade old ubuntu server 7 to latest?
[03:38] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | choc, but clean install to LTS is a better idea
[03:39] <choc> kk
[03:42] <danishanish> hey guys, i need some help. im trying to get ubuntu on a hard drive
[03:42] <danishanish> which has a partition
[03:42] <danishanish> but i get a root file system check failed error
[03:42] <danishanish> im using windows now.
[03:42] <danishanish> what do?
[03:43] <function9x> which fs did you select?
[03:43] <bubbasaures> danishanish, this a wubi install?
[03:43] <IAmFreedom> anybody here have a xchat license key i could use?
[03:43] <danishanish> wubi?
[03:43] <danishanish> this is live 14.04
[03:43] <danishanish> not using wubi
[03:43] <bubbasaures> IAmFreedom, no key needed in linux and no piracy here.
[03:43] <Stanley00> IAmFreedom: for window? switch to hexchat then
[03:44] <function9x> IAmFreedom: is xchat still going? I thought they stop developing on that app????
[03:44] <IAmFreedom> HexChat don't work as good as xChat though
[03:44] <cfhowlett> IAmFreedom, license key?  xchat HAS no license key.
[03:45] <Stanley00> IAmFreedom: then don't use window, and this channel is not for xchat or window, so I'll stop here
[03:45] <bubbasaures> danishanish, If you're doing a manual install root mount is /
[03:46] <bubbasaures> format the partition with the installer if there
[03:46] <EriC^^> danishanish: when do you get this error?
[03:47] <happyfr0gg> How do I get iTunes running on Ubuntu?
[03:47] <cfhowlett> !itunes | happyfr0gg,
[03:47] <function9x> happyfr0gg: wine
[03:48] <happyfr0gg> I got an iPad for Christmas and need to transfer a CSV file of contacts to my iPad.
[03:48] <daftykins> happyfr0gg: i don't think it's going to happen
[03:48] <cfhowlett> happyfr0gg, email the file to yourself.  open the email on Ipad
[03:49] <daftykins> ^that's a good idea
[03:49] <daftykins> or use dropbox etc.
[03:49] <happyfr0gg> cfhowlett - I will try that.
[03:50] <erasmus> Ubuntu sucks ass.
[03:51] <erasmus> you do an update and then you can't use your system at all.
[03:51] <cfhowlett> !ops | erasmus profanity, trolling
[03:51] <bynarie> why dont you like ubuntu
[03:51] <erasmus> fuck you cfhowlett
[03:51] <erasmus> I don't like it cause I do an update and then cannot get bck into the system.
[03:51] <bynarie> ok.. whats wrong we can try to help you
[03:51] <Tm_T> erasmus: either behave nicely or leave
[03:51] <erasmus> it puts me into this stupid blue screen where I cannot even load gnome
[03:51] <bynarie> can you get into terminal?
[03:51] <bynarie> oh
[03:51] <erasmus> Tm_T fuck you too brah
[03:51] <cfhowlett> bynarie, don't feed ...
[03:52] <bynarie> hm.. ok
[03:52]  * cfhowlett sends a beer to the ops in gratitude for their vigilance
[03:52] <Tm_T> it seems sometimes people just want to vent in here
[03:52] <daftykins> that they do
[03:54] <function9x> lol
[04:08] <l0rdkermit> any av/malware software suggestions?
[04:08] <l0rdkermit> poked around on the web.. a couple free ones it seems
[04:11] <cfhowlett> !clamav | l0max
[04:11] <cfhowlett> l0rdkermit, ^^^
[04:12] <Stanley00> l0rdkermit: the best outthere I know for you is yourself, just install all thing from repos, and don't run anything else is enough :3
[04:12] <cfhowlett> !antiviruus | l0rdkermit
[04:12] <somsip> !virus | l0rdkermit
[04:13] <l0rdkermit> yeah i gathered linux is a rather virus free media... its my nature to be paranoid :P
[04:14] <function9x> aptitude
[04:14] <cfhowlett> l0rdkermit, no one would claim "virus FREE" ... and just cuz you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
[04:14] <l0rdkermit> sry... virus free = relative
[04:15] <l0rdkermit> hehe... i know they're out to get me... my rice crispies tell me so
[04:18] <mojtaba> daftykins: you mean both should be 64bit?
[04:19] <daftykins> mojtaba: if your old install was 64-bit then if both processors are x86-64 that's fine yeah.
[04:20] <daftykins> mojtaba: in fact clonezilla the disk from one to the other, you might have to remove graphics drivers if the hardware has changed though
[04:21] <mojtaba> daftykins: How should I remove that? (my current system is Dell Studio 1555, my newer one is Thinkpad T440S)
[04:21] <daftykins> remove what?
[04:21] <mojtaba> daftykins: graphic drivers
[04:22] <daftykins> sorry i'm not going to look up the specs for you :) what've you done with the new one so far? have you booted a live session?
[04:22] <daftykins> if you find out what graphics hardware each uses that'd be a good start
[04:33] <nightdemon666> i have a question, why does empathy suck and not let me log into freenode with my nick and password, but if i do it via webchat.freenode.net over web browser, I have no problems? :-(
[04:33] <motus> hello somebody to speak in spanish?

[04:42] <ilhami> this bot knows nothing. :-D
[04:43] <whoever> ilhami: what are you tring to do
[04:43] <OerHeks> try !find or !info <whatever
[04:43] <ilhami> I want to find out if there is a package for phps composer, the dependency manager
[04:44] <collosic> Anyone willing to help me out with, what I believe are, RAM issues?
[04:44] <choc> !find heaven
[04:44] <choc> no, it doesnt work
[04:44] <daftykins> !details | collosic
[04:45] <somsip> choc: what are you looking for?
[04:45] <collosic> Am I allowed to link to a screen shot of my free -k?
[04:45] <cfhowlett> !paste | collosic,
[04:45] <collosic> I seem to not be using all of my ram
[04:45] <collosic> http://imgur.com/X5F51x2
[04:45] <daftykins> collosic: an image of text? that's not really all that bright :)
[04:46] <collosic> I have a total of 8 gigs of ram, but when I add up my used and free its not coming out right
[04:46] <somsip> !linuxatemyram | collosic
[04:46] <daftykins> collosic: www.linuxatemyram.com
[04:46] <collosic> I'm either not certain how free displays the output or something is wrong here
[04:46] <somsip> collosic: have a read - it explains how ram is displayed http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[04:47] <whoever> ilhami: nope https://github.com/composer/composer/blob/master/README.md
[04:47] <collosic> thanks guys
[04:47] <ilhami> whoever: :/
[04:47] <daftykins> collosic: and yeah, "command | pastebinit" would be good in future ;)
[04:47] <collosic> I'll remember to use that next time, appreciate all the help
[04:48] <whoever> ilhami: you can add a ppa, if it will make you fell better or write your own script
[04:48] <ilhami> whoever: I should. :-)
[04:48] <OerHeks> collosic, 8192 - 256 videocard onboard?
[04:48] <ilhami> I might do it.. but not right now.
[04:49] <ilhami> whoever: please remind me later.
[04:50] <whoever> ilhami: remind you to write a pkg ?
[04:50] <collosic> Oerheks: that's correct
[04:51] <whoever> ilhami: all you gotta do is though the commands to a script , change the header on te file and call it  a day
[04:51] <whoever> ilhami: what are you do django ? other then that i don't see much of a use for it
[04:51] <ilhami> whoever: composer is for php.
[04:52] <whoever> ilhami: yes but it manages on a per proj bases
[04:52] <ilhami> yeah.
[04:52] <pg172> can anyone tell me how to get netgear wna3100 to work in 14.0.4 lts
[04:53] <whoever> ilhami: so i assume your not doing straight php
[04:53] <ilhami> whoever: what do you mean by straight?
[04:54] <somsip> ilhami: you started out asking for advice on installing composer. What is it you really need to know?
[04:56] <pg172> i need help with netgear wireless adapter
[04:57] <whoever> ilhami: using it as  server side code on a web server
[04:57] <daftykins> !details | pg172
[04:57] <pg172> ok
[04:58] <pg172> my problem is that have  a netgear n300 wireless adapter and I need drivers  for ubuntu 14.0.4 to use it
[05:02] <daftykins> pg172: yes. work out what chipset it's really using, plug it in and run "lsusb" if it's USB, or "lspci" if it's an internal card
[05:02] <whoever> somsip: ah, for all we know he is trolling now , first he wanted to know if there was a pkg  for it, then after i told him there wasn't and said he could write his own , I then asked him if he was doing something like django  since it manages on per proj. bases
[05:03] <pg172> ok i will find it
[05:03] <somsip> whoever: that's why I asked a direct question. The query seemed to be going nowhere. Anyway, the responding silence is golden
[05:04] <whoever> somsip: and how is it gloden, annoying yes, golden not sure
[05:04] <somsip> whoever: if he was trolling, he's gone.
[05:05] <whoever> somsip: for all we know, he is now in #webdev asking about php now
[05:05] <somsip> whoever: not our problem, and end of thread for me.
[05:05] <whoever> somsip: that or he went to sleep
[05:05] <pg172> ok its a usb with a BCM43231KFBG chipset
[05:06] <somsip> !bcm | pg172
[05:06] <OerHeks> might be available in additional drivers
[05:07] <pg172> its not ive checked
[05:08] <pg172> when i installed this with ndisgtk it detects my wifi but websites dont load
[05:08] <daftykins> ndiswrapper is not a wise idea
[05:09] <daftykins> only in extreme circumstances should it be considered
[05:09] <pg172> why
[05:09] <daftykins> because you're wrapping a driver from an OS it wasn't designed for
[05:09] <pg172> true
[05:09] <daftykins> which to any of us that understand tech, screams "OH MY DEAR TUX WHY!?"
[05:10] <pg172> how do I install the drivers then
[05:10] <daftykins> did you read the above broadcom driver link?
[05:11] <pg172> yes and i did this but I get a wifi problem like i said where the wifi work for a little but then doesnot not work
[05:11] <TheTopBloke> very carefully
[05:12] <whoever> pg172: i think it in the networking pkg
[05:12] <TheTopBloke> got logs?
[05:12] <whoever> pg172: are you using dhcp
[05:12] <pg172> yes
[05:13] <whoever> pg172: when did it stop working
[05:13] <daftykins> pg172: actually you only said you needed a driver
[05:13] <daftykins> nothing about getting it working but then it playing up
[05:13] <TheTopBloke> try not using dhcp.
[05:14] <pg172> ok thanks
[05:14] <ilhami> how can I remove something from $PATH?
[05:15] <somsip> ilhami: redeclare it without 'something'
[05:15] <bynarie> ilhami, do you have path varabile in bashrc?
[05:15] <ilhami> bynarie: let me check.
[05:16] <ax562> I believe i need some help
[05:16] <ilhami> bynarie: I do
[05:16] <ax562> Just installed 12.04 lts 64bit on a laptop with windows 8.1
[05:16] <ilhami> export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin"
[05:17] <ilhami> only this though
[05:17] <whoever> ilhami: unset
[05:17] <ax562> I resized internal hd and installed on 250gb space
[05:17] <whoever> ilhami: unset <var>
[05:17] <TheTopBloke> yowza
[05:18] <TheTopBloke> and then?
[05:18] <ilhami> the path will be removed when I restart right?
[05:18] <ilhami> the things I added to it
[05:18] <ilhami> ?
[05:18] <ax562> Now Im not getting boot options
[05:18] <whoever> ilhami: after issue
[05:18] <ilhami> let me reboot. brb
[05:18] <TheTopBloke> Win 8 was on their first? And it was the only OS on there?
[05:18] <ax562> Just goes straight into ubuntu
[05:18] <whoever> ilhami: no
[05:18] <ax562> Yes
[05:18] <ax562> 8.1
[05:19] <ilhami> whoever: it wont?
[05:19] <whoever> ilhami: you do not need to reboot , what are you thinking
[05:19] <ilhami> ok let me show you my path
[05:19] <TheTopBloke> Yeah, I haven't done it in a while, but Google is your friend. Try ubuntu dual boot or windows 8 dual boot and there should be plenty of info on it.
[05:19] <ilhami> oh its gone now
[05:19] <whoever> ilhami: export path=<some/path>
[05:19] <ax562> But i have a few  other partitions on hd
[05:19] <whoever> unset path
[05:19] <toad_> I got a problem.  I changed my ownership on my /etc/sudoers and sudoers.p folders to my main user profile and cannot change them back to root ownership
[05:19] <TheTopBloke> My guess is that it is going to be the win8 boot loader
[05:19] <ilhami> whoever: already gone when I opened another terminal
[05:20] <ilhami> heh
[05:20] <whoever> *FACEPLANT*
[05:20] <TheTopBloke> uhh...
[05:20] <toad_> am I hosed?
[05:20] <daftykins> whoever: are you skateboarding again? it's facepalm :D
[05:20] <ilhami> ok what I want is....
[05:20] <imbezol> toad_: reboot into recovery mode
[05:21] <daftykins> !recovery | toad_
[05:21] <toad_> did that
[05:21] <imbezol> toad_: start a root shell
[05:21] <imbezol> toad_: "mount -o remount,rw /"
[05:21] <toad_> I did that imbezol
[05:21] <TheTopBloke> so, your new owner does not have no privelege?
[05:21] <whoever> den9ie: yes i am key surfing :-d
[05:21] <imbezol> fix the permissions
[05:21] <toad_> oh..
[05:21] <imbezol> toad_: then reboot
[05:21] <ilhami> I moved composer.phar to the bin but I dont want to type the .phar all the time.. how would I achive that?
[05:21] <ilhami> I just want to type composer
[05:21] <somsip> ilhami: rename it to composer
[05:22] <toad_> I am trying to dd an image
[05:22] <toad_> and what I get is this
[05:22] <ilhami> somsip: ok.
[05:22] <ax562> So google is the answer?
[05:22] <whoever> symlink alias
[05:22] <toad_> dd: opening ‘/dev/sda’: Permission denied
[05:22] <toad_> then when I try and do a sudo
[05:22] <ilhami> I think symlinking is better than renaming it
[05:22] <somsip> whoever: composer is happy being on path and slf-updating correctly. Maybe best not to get too complicated...
[05:22] <TheTopBloke> Yeah dual boot. It's not uncommon. there should be plenty of info on it, I have done it several times, just haven't done it in a long long time
[05:22] <TheTopBloke> Its fairly easy, simply RTFM
[05:22] <toad_> sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 1000, should be 0
[05:23] <whoever> somsip: yes but for whatever reason exported then wanted to remove it
[05:23] <whoever> i have no idea what he is actualy tring to achieve
[05:23] <ilhami> whoever: I did try to add it to path but it failed.
[05:23] <imbezol> toad_: do the root recovery as mentioned and "chown root:root /etc/sudoers"
[05:23] <somsip> whoever: I'm answering his questions though I'm not sure what mess he's making. That's his issue
[05:24] <imbezol> toad_: you can also do a "chmod 440 /etc/sudoers" while you're there
[05:24] <whoever> somsip: same here
[05:24] <toad_> k...I will try that again.
[05:24] <whoever> ilhami: how did you export and why do you think it faild
[05:24] <ilhami> so ln -s path/to/file /path/to/symlink?
[05:24] <toad_> I will do all that
[05:25] <whoever> ilhami: its eather that or transpose the two paths :-)
[05:25] <somsip> ilhami: where did you save it to? What path?
[05:25] <ilhami> /usr/bin/ I moved it from home
[05:25] <ilhami> so it works when I just type composer.phar now
[05:25] <whoever> ilhami: curious how new are you to *nix
[05:26] <ilhami> whoever: not that new. but I forget stuff sometimes.
[05:26] <somsip> ilhami: rename it as composer if you're doing that. It'll be less confusing for you maybe
[05:26] <ilhami> no
[05:26] <ilhami> I want the best solution.
[05:26] <ilhami> not whats easy.
[05:26] <ilhami> best practice is?
[05:26] <whoever> ilhami: how long have you been using a terminal consistantly
[05:26] <ilhami> I use a terminal everyday. but I mostly use it for vim
[05:26] <somsip> ilhami: then put it in /usr/local/composer, create a symlink from /usr/local/bin/composer to /usr/local/bin/composer/composer.phar and add /usr/local/bin to path
[05:27] <imbezol> i think /usr/local/bin is in $PATH by default in ubuntu
[05:27] <somsip> ilhami: tidiest is not always "best" if you don't know what you're doing. I'm out
[05:28] <whoever> exporrt e=path/to/some/dir then add the same line to ~/.bashrc
[05:28] <ilhami> somsip: I understood what you wrote there.. but it seems like a silly solution.
[05:28] <ilhami> anyway get out of here.
[05:28] <ilhami> :-)
[05:28] <ilhami> whoever's solution seems better. thanks
[05:28] <whoever> ilhami: from what you have told us there is about 3 ways to solve the same issue
[05:29] <imbezol> ilhami: if it's just your user that will need to execute composer, leave it whereever you've installed it, and make an alias to run it
[05:29] <ilhami> well yeah but I want best practice. I dont think moving the file to /usr/bin was a good idea in  the first place.
[05:30] <ilhami> let me move it back
[05:30] <imbezol> ilhami: edit your .bashrc and do... alias composer='/path/to/composer.phar'
[05:30] <ilhami> imbezol: great!
[05:30] <ilhami> seems even better.
[05:30] <ilhami> thank you.
[05:31] <imbezol> you'll have to logout and back in or run ". .bashrc" in any terminal you have open to pull in the alias
[05:31] <whoever> ilhami: i hate to brake it to you but that was suggested right after you asked about export
[05:31] <ilhami> whoever: I may have missed it on my 10inch screen. :-D
[05:31] <whoever> imbezol: he could source it
[05:31] <imbezol> whoever: . and source are the same
[05:31] <chu> whoever: Yeah ". ~/.bashrc" is a sourcing
[05:33] <machiel> 有人在吗？
[05:33] <TheTopBloke> ok
[05:33] <cfhowlett> !cn | machiel
[05:33] <ilhami> so I had to logout and login?
[05:33] <whoever> imbezol: ya but i thaught you said .bashrc but to source you could . .bashrc
[05:33] <ilhami> have*
[05:34] <machiel> You are chinese?
[05:34] <ilhami> no
[05:34] <whoever> imbezol: ah, i missed that first . in your post
[05:34] <machiel> Where are you?
[05:34] <ilhami> I am in Denmark
[05:34] <somsip> !ot | machiel
[05:34] <chu> ilhami: Or run "source ~/.bashrc" from a terminal.
[05:35] <cfhowlett> machiel, this is ubuntu support.  pretty sure, we're all on planet earth.  ask your ubuntu questions.
[05:36] <ilhami> chu: thanks
[05:36] <ilhami> works smoothly now!
[05:36] <whoever> ilhami: we still don't know your end game , it would help so we arn't just thouging out shit that may work
[05:36] <machiel> oh .it's my honor to comminicate with you
[05:36] <ilhami> what do you mean my end game?
[05:36] <chu> whoever: Please watch your language in #ubuntu channels.
[05:36] <whoever> chu: sorry
[05:37] <ilhami> my goal was to make composer available without having to refer to the full path. Nothing else. and the alias command worked fin
[05:37] <ilhami> e
[05:37] <machiel> oh ,amazing!
[05:37] <ilhami> lol machiel
[05:37] <whoever> ilhami: the end goal, your are striving for here, so we arn't all giving you just answers that may work , when there is a "best" awser for a given end solultion
[05:38] <ilhami> hard to type on these small buttons heh
[05:41] <whoever> ilhami: well attach a real monitor to your netboo-
[05:41] <whoever> *neetbook
[05:41] <ilhami> I am in my bed atm. the time is 06.41am and I still havent got any sleep.
[05:41] <ilhami> and it's cold. cant get outta bed right now.
[05:42] <cfhowlett> !ot | ilhami,
[05:42] <ilhami> sorry.
[05:43] <whoever> ilhami: nothing like nix sweet nothings in the AM to wake up :-)
[05:43] <ilhami> whoever: I didnt understand that sentence. Can you rephrase that?
[05:44] <whoever> ilhami: nevermind it then, it would be to difficult to explain then
[05:45] <ilhami> anyway I hear that Adobe is not updating Flash player more for Linux, is that right? SO what do we do now? Do we need some alternative like pepperflash?
[05:45] <ilhami> or what its called
[05:46] <whoever> ilhami: nope remove it, you don't need it at all
[05:46] <ilhami> remove what?
[05:46] <ilhami> flash?
[05:46] <TheTopBloke> agreed. kill it.
[05:46] <whoever> you will just get a warming on flash content, and you tell it to play
[05:46] <ilhami> yeah I have that warning now
[05:47] <whoever> ilhami: click the link above the one that says "check for update "
[05:47] <ilhami> so how will I remove it? sudo apt-get purge flash-plugin? :-D
[05:48] <ilhami> I cant use something that is not getting updated anymore. It's silly.
[05:48] <ilhami> it's a security risk.
[05:49] <whoever> sudo fdisk /dev/sda  d 1 w
[05:49] <whoever> sudo reboot
[05:49] <ilhami> funny
[05:49] <whoever> yep
[05:49] <ilhami> sda is where grub is. why would I remove grub? :S
[05:50] <whoever> so you can install windlws 10
[05:50] <ilhami> and install a keylogger at the same time?
[05:50] <sheap> I have a fresh install of 14.04 but I can't install python-dev because libc6 (2.19-0ubuntu6.3) is what the dependency chain wants, but (2.19-0ubuntu6.4) is the version currently installed... how could that happen?
[05:50] <ilhami> I hate Windows corporation.
[05:51] <daftykins> that's not even its' name
[05:51] <ilhami> whatever it is
[05:51] <ilhami> Microsoft
[05:51] <daftykins> now check your comments about Windows at the door when coming in here, it's childish
[05:51] <ilhami> Corporation
[05:51] <null_______> Why does pkcon exist!?!!?
[05:52] <ilhami> daftykins: it's childish to hate a company and what they stand for?
[05:52] <ilhami> well if you like paying for software then go ahead.
[05:53] <whoever> ilhami: he is still secretly in the closet about his windows desirse :-)
[05:53] <ilhami> whoever: are you from Spain? desirse? is that a Spanish word? :-D
[05:53] <ilhami> or you mean desire
[05:53] <ilhami> :-D
[05:54] <whoever> yes the second one
[05:54] <ilhami> well windows does have some OK products like Visual Studio(not the installer). They are decent but I mean they are not worth he money.
[05:54] <ilhami> the*
[05:54] <whoever> aparently some peeps hate it when you speak the truth of  a large corperaction that fails at their own product production and now sells branded hardware
[05:55] <whoever> ilhami: there are a few different ide's you could use
[05:56] <ilhami> well I have heard of Mono development as an alternative to .NET.
[05:56] <ilhami> I guess Mono is the name of the framework. Not sure.
[05:56] <whoever> ya it is singuler
[05:57] <ilhami> but of course it wont work as well as native stuff.
[05:57] <whoever> ilhami: you could use vim instad of visual studios as a psudo ide
[05:57] <ilhami> whoever: yeah you could.
[05:57] <daftykins> !ot
[05:57] <kg_> hello
[05:57] <lickalott> hey guys, whats the package name for the 32bit libraries?
[05:58] <ilhami> i386 :-D
[05:58] <ilhami> ?
[05:58] <kg_> anybody has issue with f12 boot key in Toshiba
[05:58] <ilhami> lickalott: not sure though. you may need to get it confirmed
[05:58] <daftykins> kg_: issue with it? sounds like a question for toshiba, not us
[05:58] <whoever> kg_: whats it doing
[05:58] <kg_> well, i can't seem to boot from usb
[05:59] <kg_> before, I just press f12 when the computer is booted to find the booting device
[05:59] <kg_> now it doesn't seem to show the menu
[05:59] <whoever> kg_: are you sure you don't need to enable anything in bios
[05:59] <kg_> bios is f2
[05:59] <kg_> but nothing happens when i press f2 neither
[05:59] <ilhami> kg_: you can also change those settings in bios itself.
[05:59] <whoever> kg_: is  your usb bootable
[05:59] <ilhami> oh
[06:00] <whoever> ilhami: i just told him that
[06:00] <hoverflow> Hello, does anyone has problems with wirless connection when installed Ubuntu on MacBook Air? I have a problem. the internet is always gone regularly for 1 min. or so and back again. It doesnt disconnect from the router or anything. only there is no internet for 1 min. and back again.
[06:00] <kg_> it's bootable though
[06:00] <ilhami> stackoverflow.com/questions/23182765/how-to-install-ia32-libs-in-ubuntu-14-04-lts-trusty-tahr
[06:00] <ilhami> lickalott
[06:01] <whoever> kg_: is f12 recognised during boot when you press it, maybe your not pressing it at the right spot
[06:01] <lickalott> lol...i was just on that site.  thanks ilhami!  For some reason i didn't think it was going to be that easy to google.
[06:01] <prakash99> trying to push Android 5.0.2 factory image on my Nexus 7 and my terminal is stuck on "sending 'boot' (5152 KB)" for a while
[06:02] <prakash99> how long is normal
[06:02] <daftykins> prakash99: that's not even vaguely an ubuntu support question.
[06:02] <ilhami> prakash99: doesn't seem relevant in this channel.
[06:02] <ilhami> :-D
[06:02] <prakash99> I was using the terminal in ubuntu so I thought I would ask here ...
[06:02] <prakash99> sorry
[06:02] <ilhami> hehehe
[06:03] <prakash99> I will seek a different channel
[06:03] <whoever> prakash99: wrong channel for that, try #android  and 5-10 min
[06:03] <prakash99> thanks
[06:03] <prakash99> and I apologize again
[06:03] <ilhami> or #android-dev
[06:03] <daftykins> prakash99: if i had a fire and i was using a bucket to carry water, would i go to the bucket company to ask how long it'd take to put the fire out?
[06:03] <Guest70338> NICK
[06:03] <ilhami> daftykins: you are a bit cheeky.
[06:03] <ilhami> Guest70338: nick what?
[06:04] <daftykins> simply highlighting how peeps need to use their head a bit more.
[06:04] <ilhami> dont give the guy a bad experience.
[06:04] <whoever> ilhami: he's grumpy his windows 10 won't boot up in less than a day and a half :-p
[06:04] <ilhami> let people feel good when they come here and leave.
[06:05] <ilhami> whoever: :-D lets not start a smear campaign against each other.
[06:05] <zuzup> (zuzup) Running ubuntu 14.04; Geforce 108m gt 525m; nvidia driver 340.29; built-in laptop lcd monitor (1366x768) and 24" NEC (1920x1080) on vga port. Have trouble with detecting both monitors successfully
[06:05] <whoever> B-) some peeps just need to smile
[06:05] <ilhami> whoever: exactly!
[06:06] <ilhami> aaah hardware issues are always tougher.
[06:06] <ilhami> driver availability is not always good on Linux dists.
[06:07] <daftykins> ilhami: keep your comments to yourself.
[06:07] <daftykins> at least i stay on topic :)
[06:07] <whoever> lickalott: xradr
[06:07] <whoever> zuzup: xrandr
[06:07] <ilhami> daftykins: what comments should I keep to myself?
[06:07] <Bushmaster> greetings all, i am looking for a software under ubuntu package repository, the software for converting mp4 to mp3, anyone knows any good one?
[06:07] <daftykins> ilhami: all of them.
[06:07] <ilhami> daftykins: and why so? did I lie?
[06:07] <zuzup> Ok. I'll get the output
[06:08] <daftykins> !ot | ilhami
[06:08] <ilhami> that wasn't even off topic. It was related to the guys problem.
[06:08] <ilhami> was just poiting out it could be a driver issue.
[06:08] <whoever> zuzup: and what do you mean you can't detect both monitors
[06:09] <daftykins> hmm, ok clearly you're not an english speaker / very bright.
[06:09] <ilhami> daftykins: ah now the arrogance pops up :)
[06:09] <ilhami> starting to shine like the sun.
[06:09] <zuzup> Nvidia-settings doesn't show 2 monitors so that i can configure them
[06:09] <daftykins> nah that was the guy talking about Windows in a Linux channel :D
[06:09] <zuzup> Both are being painted
[06:10] <zuzup> But the lcd builtin is just a corrupted screen
[06:10] <whoever> zuzup: what do you get xrandr
[06:10] <zuzup> @whoever Pastebin?
[06:10] <whoever> zuzup: yes bpaste.net
[06:11] <ilhami> daftykins: just stop it.
[06:11] <hoverflow> Bushmaster: try pacpl tool
[06:11] <Bushmaster> i did under ubuntu but it does not work hoverflow  it comes with some kind of error messages but i do not have the copy of the error message

[06:14] <hoverflow> Bushmaster: soundconverter ?
[06:14] <whoever> zuzup: what do you mean "they are not both detected "
[06:14] <Bushmaster> hoverflow,  i can try, is it on ubuntu repository?
[06:14] <daftykins> gour: sounds like it was dealt with, with Windows and wasn't shutdown properly - chkdsk it from Windows if possible.
[06:14] <zuzup> Well, although the position etc are right, they are not being painted properly
[06:14] <hoverflow> Bushmaster: yes
[06:15] <zuzup> Like, i cannot move my mouse from the left to right monitor
[06:15] <Bushmaster> there is a guy here talking about windows, very weird
[06:15] <gour> from windows?
[06:15] <whoever> zuzup: so both monitors are one , what do they both show the same thing  or different
[06:16] <daftykins> gour: yeah if that's an option
[06:16] <zuzup> The bigger one is fine
[06:17] <zuzup> But when i, say, open the all launcher by hitting the windows/super key is painted in a fragmented manner on my lcd monitor
[06:17] <zuzup> Lcd=built-in
[06:18] <zuzup> Where as the launcher is expected to show up on the bigger monitor
[06:18] <whoever> zuzup: what happens when your mirror them
[06:18] <zuzup> Which is to the left with position 0 0
[06:18] <whoever> does it still happen
[06:19] <frustro> so handbrake.
[06:19] <zuzup> If i turn off the lcd things are fine. But i want it on. Invent tried mirroring because i want a higher res on my larger monitor
[06:19] <frustro> I have a dvd9,
[06:20] <zuzup> I havent*
[06:20] <frustro> want to turn each chapter into a separate vid.
[06:20] <frustro> how to do that?
[06:20] <whoever> zuzup: its zuzup xrandr --output LVDS1 --same-as VGA1
[06:20] <frustro> tbh it's a music dvd
[06:20] <zuzup> I'll give it a try
[06:21] <frustro> wnat to rip each chapter into a separate file
[06:24] <whoever> frustro: use something like vobcopy or dvdbackup ... easier to script and saves time
[06:24] <frustro> whoever, I have the dvd9 in vob format,
[06:25] <frustro> it's music vid dvd
[06:25] <frustro> want eack sont as a separate mp4  or whateve
[06:25] <frustro> wow. each song as a separate video file
[06:25] <whoever> freanux: soundconverter
[06:26] <whoever> and import the disc, make your output format selection and select output path
[06:28] <whoever> !next
[06:28] <whoever> all customers satisfied ... well most
[06:29] <frustro> hmm?
[06:29] <frustro> not so much
[06:32] <machiel> hello,everyone!
[06:32] <nopnop> hi
[06:32] <machiel> how are you
[06:34] <daftykins> machiel: support questions only in here, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:34] <frustro> hmm, seems that handbrake does more that it says it does in the gui.  looks lite it will rip the title intoe separate tracks.
[06:35] <whoever> *everyone google will solve most or all problems *
[06:35] <whoever> *everyone google will solve most or all problems*
[06:35] <machiel> I'm sorry, my english is poor
[06:35] <Agha> hello
[06:35] <zuzup> @whoever, here's how it looks when I try to move one window to the other after running xrandr
[06:35] <zuzup> http://i.imgur.com/ubraAwm.jpg
[06:38] <zuzup> You can see how the remaining part of the window appears elsewhere, not immediately to the right if the larger screen. Further, it didn't mirror.
[06:40] <zuzup> I've edited the image to get rid of my reflection in the lcd monitor, but need assured that there wasn't anything there. Just plain black
[06:40] <lotuspsychje> good morning
[06:43] <zuzup> @whoever any suggestion?
[06:45] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: whats your issue mate?
[06:46] <emma> zuzup: on IRC it is not customary to put @ in front of someone's name and might even make it less likely they see you.
[06:46] <emma> zuzup: most IRC clients will highlight the name alone.
[06:48] <zuzup> Ohhh... I see. lotuspsychje and whoever, I've sent an image link on imgur of how my screen looks when i move one window to another
[06:49] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: can you re-paste plz i just joined
[06:49] <zuzup> Sure
[06:49] <zuzup> Thanks emma btw

[06:50] <zuzup> Briefly lotuspsychje
[06:50] <zuzup> (zuzup) (zuzup) Running ubuntu 14.04; Geforce 108m gt 525m; nvidia driver 340.29; built-in laptop lcd monitor (1366x768) and 24" NEC (1920x1080) on vga port. Have trouble with detecting both monitors successfully
[06:50] <lotuspsychje> !xrandr | zuzup
[06:50] <zuzup> https://bpaste.net/show/b9b6e1ca4803
[06:50] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: did you check screen options, maybe change to mirror?
[06:52] <zuzup> Yes the image is after running  xrandr --output LVDS1 --same-as VGA1
[06:52] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: maybe xrandr --auto ?
[06:52] <zuzup> ubottu I'll check that
[06:53] <zuzup> ubottu haha, very funny
[06:53] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: or check nvidia setting tool
[06:53] <zuzup> I did lotuspsychje
[06:53] <zuzup> The second monitor is not at all showing up
[06:53] <zuzup> All that does up is xscreen0
[06:54] <zuzup> With a virtual resolution if 3280x1080 something
[06:54] <zuzup> I guess its sum of my horizontal resolution x1080
[06:54] <Mosalut> hi
[06:54] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: think xrandr can solve this but not sure howto
[06:55] <lotuspsychje> Mosalut: welcome
[06:55] <zuzup> I ran arandr and generated xrandr command and tried that too
[06:55] <Mosalut> hi
[06:55] <zuzup> Doesn't work lotuspsychje
[06:56] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: grafix drivers of laptop installed correctly too?
[06:56] <Mosalut> ps command cannot found
[06:56] <Mosalut> why
[06:56] <lotuspsychje> Mosalut: what are you trying to get work?
[06:56] <zuzup> Yes, dropped to tty1, stopped lightdm and installed from rep
[06:57] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: did you try mirror screens both? see what it does?
[06:57] <zuzup> I guess graphics driver is fine. I think I'm having trouble with configuring it
[06:57] <zuzup> From "Displays"?
[06:57] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: yes
[06:57] <zuzup> Ok
[06:57] <zuzup> I'll try
[06:58] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: maybe folling around might help you find the issue
[06:58] <jimmyd> google
[06:58] <Mosalut> oh! shit! cause xshell disconneted lotuspsychie thanks
[06:59] <Mosalut> thank how to start a server in ubuntu
[06:59] <lotuspsychje> !server | Mosalut
[06:59] <zuzup> Actually, i do not want to mirror. But I tried and ofcourse both displays work. Resolution is both skewed and screwed
[07:00] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: check your logs maybe it will show you some errors
[07:00] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: xorg, syslog,dmesg log
[07:00] <zuzup> Alright. I'll do that
[07:00] <zuzup> I'll check back in tomorrow with that information
[07:01] <lotuspsychje> zuzup: kk good luck
[07:01] <zuzup> And will do around in the meantime
[07:01] <zuzup> Thanks lotuspsychje
[07:02] <Ilhami> back.
[07:03] <Mosalut> thank you
[07:17] <Mosalut> Oh!
[07:17] <Mosalut> The program 'server' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
[07:17] <Mosalut> apt-get install rsplib-legacy-wrappers
[07:18] <Mosalut> it's awfaul!

[07:26] <aaaaa45551> hi, im switching to ubuntu on my laptop, and we all probably know that nvidia optimus probably does not work well on it, and my laptop which is a thinkpad t420s thankfully gives a option to either use optimus, or use integrated intel or use nvidia. im wondering which works better on linux, the nvidia or intel? the nvidia is more powerful but are the drivers OK?
[07:28] <lotuspsychje> !info nvidia-prime | aaaaa45551
[07:28] <Mosalut> whitehat-hacker
[07:28] <Mosalut> it's said
[07:28] <ararob> aaaaa45551: I run open source intel drivers on my laptop and they work great.
[07:29] <Mosalut> server is deprecate
[07:29] <Mosalut> suggest me use rspserver
[07:29] <Mosalut> but rspserver echo some data and not go on
[07:30] <lotuspsychje> Mosalut: keep this channel free for ubuntu support please
[07:30] <Mosalut> yes I do it on ubuntu
[07:30] <lotuspsychje> Mosalut: if you have a question ask it, dont flood the channel with your steps
[07:30] <Mosalut> ok
[07:31] <jdzielny> hi there.  is there any way when installing Ubuntu Desktop 14.04.1 to set up encrypted LVM as the install config?
[07:31] <jdzielny> It seems to not be present
[07:31] <Mosalut> I am going to type it in one line
[07:31] <aaaaa45551> so your experiences on intel drivers are good, i have never used intel graphics on linux, only AMD or desktop NVIDIA, so no intel experience, so you who have, intel drivers work ok on linux? no performance issues etc?
[07:31] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: for optimus cards to work, you need nvidia-prime
[07:31] <aaaaa45551> since i would be fine with intel probably because i really dont do anything heavy on a laptop, thats what i have my desktop for
[07:32] <ararob> aaaaa45551: they should work fine, i even play some games on it, works fine. I have GM45 chipset which is abit older though. what chipset you have?
[07:32] <aaaaa45551> lotuspsychje: does that mean its needed even when running only the nvidia one, my laptop has the option of using optimus, or using the integrated only or using the nvidia only and im choosing between using the nvidia only or intel only
[07:33] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: if your system had an optimus card, why would you use less grafix?
[07:33] <aaaaa45551> ararob: QM67 is my chipset
[07:34] <aaaaa45551> lotuspsychje: idk, if optimus works fine i could use that too, so should i try your option then?
[07:35] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: if you sure your nvidia is an optimus card, yes install nvidia-prime
[07:35] <aaaaa45551> well its quite likely an optimus card since nvidia lists as optimus supported and my laptop has "NVIDIA optimus" option on bios and it uses intel integrated for mosts tasks on windows and for heavier things it uses nvidia
[07:37] <aaaaa45551> so, nvidia optimus has been getting better on linux then and nvidia-prime is worth a try?
[07:38] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: nvidia-prime is the driver you need for optimus cards
[07:39] <aaaaa45551> sooo, are you saying the CARD will use "nvidia-prime", but does it then switch between intel and nvidia, or is it that optimus does not work but if i use nvidia only i use the nvidia-prime driver or what are you meaning now, does the optimus technology work on linux with that or not, i didnt quite get it now
[07:40] <jdzielny> nvm, got it
[07:41] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: your system has 3 grafix ways, your optimus card and your onboard intel cpu/gpu card right?
[07:42] <aaaaa45551> bios lets me choose: optimus (switching between intel and nvidia), nvidia only, intel only
[07:42] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: so, to have full use of your optimus nvidia on ubuntu you need to install nvidia-prime package otherwise it wont work
[07:42] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: nvidia only
[07:43] <aaaaa45551> so you are saying to use nvidia only and then use that driver, its the one for this card, and i will not have switching between intel and nvidia but have the better nvidia in use?
[07:43] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: indeed
[07:43] <aaaaa45551> alright sounds like a worth of try too although i dont get the switching between intel and nvidia but its not that important after all anyway
[07:44] <aaaaa45551> well im going to go switch to nvidia only and going to install it, have my usb ready already
[07:44] <aaaaa45551> thanks
[07:44] <lotuspsychje> aaaaa45551: np

[08:38] <White_Cat_> [2014-12-29, 17:28:32] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat: if i read your guide, you first need to add a efi partition

[08:38] <White_Cat_> how can I do that?
[08:39] <White_Cat_> create an efi partition I mean
[08:39] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat: did you try to follow the guide?
[08:39] <White_Cat_> I imagine I need to resize a partition to make room for the efi partition
[08:39] <White_Cat_> well yes and the guides first step is where I am stuck
[08:40] <White_Cat_> I try to sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[08:40] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat_: you booted from the live cd right?
[08:40] <White_Cat_> yep
[08:40] <Sh3r1ff> use gparted to create the extra partition

[08:46] <White_Cat_> Sh3r1ff my disk is a bit different. I have my first partition of unknown filesystem (its possibly gpt) with a size of 512k
[08:46] <White_Cat_> this may be for the raid

[08:54] <zamba> i'm looking for tools to monitor system temperature.. what can be used for that?
[08:54] <whowantstolivefo> i use ubuntu 14.10 LTS and i need my monitor screen size get to 1900 * 1050 resolution, but in Display app there is no this resolution, how i will do that manually ?
[08:54] <zamba> cpu and motherboard
[08:55] <skao> zamba: are you looking for a real monitoring solution or would a call on console help that you could execute from time to time?
[08:56] <zamba> skao: the latter is fine just now
[08:56] <zamba> i just need to confirm the temperature
[08:56] <skao> zamba: try out sensors then
[08:56] <jsheldon> skao: thanks.  i was trying to install the pidgin-developers repository, and they for some inexplicable reason want you to download a .deb file to do that when it's one line on the command line.
[08:56] <White_Cat_> Sh3r1ff is that helpful?
[08:57] <jsheldon> skao: i now have the latest pidgin :-)  woot!
[08:59] <franci> hey! i need a little help with printing of file lines. i would like to print file from third to the end except the last three lines. can you please help me? i was trying with sed, but there's a problem because i don't know how to tell the command the number of lines minus three...
[08:59] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat_: seems to me that the 512k partition you need is already there
[09:00] <White_Cat_> its a raid 5
[09:00] <White_Cat_> would that be raid used stuff?
[09:00] <White_Cat_> raid uses first few sectors IIRC
[09:00] <White_Cat_> 512k is kind of large for that I have to admit
[09:00] <White_Cat_> its possibly the bios/legacy boot stuff maybe
[09:01] <White_Cat_> is there a way i can check?
[09:01] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat_: just read the guide and it needs a 512mb partition
[09:01] <Sh3r1ff> so i would create the partition before sda2
[09:01] <White_Cat_> okay so I need to shrink sda2 from its front by that much?
[09:02] <franci> plz help
[09:02] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat_: yes
[09:03] <Sh3r1ff> normally gparted let's you do that without much hastle
[09:04] <eightball> i fix it thanks
[09:04] <White_Cat_> Sh3r1ff free space preceeding field is disabled
[09:04] <White_Cat_> I tried resizing

[09:06] <bazhang> Name141, thunderbird, pretty much all of them
[09:07] <Name141> bazhang: Did thunderbird pick back up development ?
[09:07] <Name141> as in being updated agian ?
[09:07] <bazhang> Name141, check with their community, its in the repos
[09:11] <White_Cat_> Sh3r1ff the options seems disabled
[09:11] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat_: are you sure the disk is not mounted?
[09:11] <White_Cat_> I can edit the new size and space following fields
[09:11] <White_Cat_> it may be mounted
[09:12] <White_Cat_> how can I check
[09:13] <White_Cat_> actually
[09:13] <White_Cat_> let me google
[09:16] <White_Cat_> its telling me unmount command not found
[09:16] <Shirakawasuna> I messed up my locale somehow and can't figure out how to fix it. Running locale shows this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/9644504/ . I want them to all be set to en_US.UTF-8. If I export values directly in the terminal, everything is fine. Nothing else I've tried has worked, however - running locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 over and over again or dpkg-reconfigure locales
[09:17] <Shirakawasuna> all of the google results say to do those last two things, but for whatever reason, it does not affect the output of "locale"
[09:17] <feurd> White_Cat_: I think it's 'umount', not 'unount'
[09:17] <Shirakawasuna> and as a result, I get locale errors when logging in and whenever I run e.g. apt-get ("perl: warning: Setting locale failed.")
[09:17] <Shirakawasuna> Any ideas?
[09:20] <nikis> franci: hm, you might want to combine sed and head in this case. sed -n '3,$p' will get you the the line starting from 3 until the end of document, and head -n -3 should strip the last 3 lines. It probably can be done with sed by itself, but I don't really know how at the moment.
[09:20] <White_Cat_> ah yes
[09:20] <White_Cat_> thanks
[09:20] <damnme> hi-how to fix this problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9644480/
[09:21] <nikis> (and this way will likely be easier, albeit possibly adding a slight overhead (which is only really troublesome if you are processing huge files), heh)
[09:22] <flux242> he should use head and tail actually, but he's gone

[09:44] <damnme> how to fix this problem:http://paste.ubuntu.com/9644594/
[09:47] <White_Cat_> Sh3r1ff yes its resizing right now
[09:47] <White_Cat_> its saying 34-36 hours but I think its being incorrect
[09:47] <White_Cat_> since there is only something like 250gb of data
[09:49] <Sh3r1ff> White_Cat_: i hope for you it's windows time calculation :p
[09:49] <White_Cat_> its jumping back and forth so I imagine so
[09:50] <White_Cat_> its just resizing 512mb so probably moving all data 512mb equavalent sectors to the right
[09:51] <White_Cat_> it had something like 250gb of data so it shouldnt be overly lengthy in time I imagine
[09:51] <White_Cat_> then again I have quite an imagination

[10:24] <reggie-man> Oh, I have, but I need the Windows version as well for Windows-only games on Steam, leonid.
[10:24] <leonid> Oh, ic
[10:25] <reggie-man> I wish Steam would support Wine.

[10:40] <jimmm> Hey, im trying to get ubuntu to run correctly, i have installed ubuntu to a pen drive, when i boot it, half my screen is cut off (the display is shifted to the right), adjusting settings on my monitor doesnt help (i can shift the screen to the left a little but not enough to get the whole monitor in screen)
[10:43] <jimmm> any ideas?
[10:44] <jimmm> in settings the display is incorrect identified as a built in monitor
[10:44] <reggie-man> You might try installing proprietary video drivers, jimmm.
[10:45] <reggie-man> jimmm: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[10:49] <jimmm> reggie-man: is there anyway, i can get the system to redect the monitors, when i run xrandr all is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9644795/
[10:50] <reggie-man> I'm not sure, jimmm. I just know that the first thing I would do if I ran into graphics issues it try to install the proprietary graphics driver.
[10:51] <jimmm> reggie-man: okay ill keep that in mind, i feel like it should be possible to force the computer to re-detect monitor
[10:51] <Zeedox> How does Ubuntu 14's login screen (I guess from Unity) determine which users to list?
[10:51] <Zeedox> Reading /etc/passwd lists many more users
[10:53] <reggie-man> If you feel like you're waiting too long, jimmm, you might try another support resource. http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/finding-help/support/
[10:53] <reggie-man> You could post on one and check back the next day.
[10:54] <jimmm> thanks

[11:01] <Rory> Peace-: That looks screwy. Could you put the output from the command "sudo fdisk -l" onto a pastebin
[11:02] <Peace-> Rory: that says that gpt is not supported by fdisk
[11:02] <Peace-> Rory: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9644847

[11:53] <feurd> Hi. Does someone know how to change the keyboard layout on i3 with ubuntu 14.4 ?
[11:55] <feurd> Or how to set the keyboard layout system-wide?
[11:58] <flux242> feurd: setxkbmpa -layout de
[11:59] <feurd> flux242: it would be for a swiss-french keyboard
[11:59] <flux242> feurd: sexkbmap -layout us
[11:59] <flux242> feurd: sexkbmap -layout ru
[11:59] <flux242> and so on
[12:02] <flux242> oh, it's just setxkbmap us
[12:02] <feurd> doesnt work
[12:03] <Kuma> Can anyone direct me to where I can get solid info on MPD? A tutorial possibly?
[12:03] <flux242> does work here
[12:03] <lotuspsychje> Kuma: whats mpd
[12:03] <Kuma> music play daemon
[12:03] <Kuma> player
[12:04] <feurd> flux242: It does not give me the good mapping
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> Kuma: man mpd?
[12:05] <feurd> flux242: where can I find a list of all options? I might find the one I need (swiss-french)
[12:05] <flux242> by googling I suppose
[12:05] <flux242> i don't know any better

[12:32] <nomadist> hey
[12:33] <nomadist> can I not ssh into two vps at the same time (from different terminals)?
[12:33] <nomadist> ssh -X root@ip1 from one terminal works
[12:33] <nomadist> but typing same from another for ip2 says connection refused
[12:34] <nomadist> is it immoral to do two VPS at the same time?
[12:35] <tunafish> I can't edit connections using sudo nm-connection-editor, is there a fix for it?
[12:35] <zamba> i have two hard drives on 2TB each.. and i want to use this as data disks for a server.. should i first set up raid-1 and then lvm on top of this?
[12:36] <zamba> or should i just do lvm?
[12:37] <pfanne> I've been trying to add paramters to the i915 kernel module with a modprob config file as well as grub boot options, but when i check with systool -vm i915 they don't seem to be activated
[12:46] <tunafish> any idea what this means?  Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: Permissions request failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: Action org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.enable-disable-network is not registered
[12:47] <nomadist> can I do 2 ssh at the same time from 2 terminals?
[12:48] <b10s_> hi2all
[12:48] <b10s_> how can i install java on ubuntu for my chrome?
[12:48] <ikonia> tunafish: what are you doing ?
[12:49] <tunafish> ikonia: Trying to edit my connections, normal one also doesn't work so I get that with sudo nm-connection-editor
[12:51] <ikonia> tunafish: how are you trying to edit it ?
[12:51] <tunafish> with sudo nm-connection-editor,
[12:51] <ikonia> there is no need for that
[12:52] <ikonia> edit it through the control panel, or direct clicking on the applet in the top right of the screen
[12:52] <kaio> hi, how can I find the real conf file of refind ?
[12:52] <tunafish> I think so, but I can't edit it though the control panel, or with applet: (32) Not authorized to control networking.
[12:52] <tunafish> ikonia^
[12:53] <b10s_> ikonia, there is no any apllet. when i on https://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre i got message that plugin not installed
[12:53] <ikonia> b10s_: applet ? what are you talking about,
[12:53] <b10s_> i thought about my question :)
[12:53] <ikonia> tunafish: are you the system owner
[12:54] <tunafish> ikonia: Yes, I am an user with sudo capabilities.
[12:54] <ikonia> tunafish: there is no need for sudo - your network manager session should be running under your user
[12:54] <ikonia> tunafish: I suggest you reboot to reset your system, then walk through it with me, do not try to do anything after the system comes up
[12:55] <tunafish> ikonia: I know, I should be able to edit it, but I think I changed something while trynig to let unpriviliged user set up vpn.
[12:56] <ikonia> tunafish: I suspect so
[12:56] <tunafish> Anyway easy to reset polkit?
[12:56] <tunafish> way^
[12:57] <ikonia> depends what you've done
[12:58] <tunafish> I've purged and reinstalled polkit desktop package and network-manager package, created net user with sudo.. No luck.
[12:58] <tunafish> s/net/new
[12:58] <ikonia> of course thats not going to change anything
[12:59] <tunafish> I thought it could restore default polkit policy.
[12:59] <ikonia> no
[13:00] <b10s_> any ideas?

[13:16] <lyz> hello
[13:17] <Unknown0BC> Hello, when i plug my webcam into a usb hub on ubuntu it will not work. But under windows it works via the hub.
[13:18] <Unknown0BC> I  wonder why ? The hub works under ubuntu I mean if I plug in a usb stick to it it works.
[13:18] <Unknown0BC> So i'm puzzled.
[13:19] <shuman> Unknown0BC: missing drivers maybe?
[13:19] <Unknown0BC> The webcam works on its own. The hub works.
[13:19] <Unknown0BC> shuman, not sure which drivers could be missing then....
[13:19] <BluesKaj_> Hiyas all
[13:20] <shuman> Unknown0BC: so when you plug cam directly to usb it IS working?
[13:20] <Unknown0BC> yes shuman
[13:20] <shuman> ok :)
[13:22] <Unknown0BC> when I plug the  webcam into the hub the can appears when I do a lsusb and the /dev/video appears but none of the webcam software including skype manages to use the webcam.
[13:22] <Unknown0BC> but under windows the hub/webcam combo works.
[13:22] <Unknown0BC> very weird.
[13:22] <b10s_> EriC^^, thx, but i have already  icedtea-7-plugin, ls -la /usr/lib/chromium-browser/IcedTeaPlugin.so : /usr/lib/chromium-browser/IcedTeaPlugin.so -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/amd64/IcedTeaPlugin.so
[13:23] <b10s_> but chrome doesnt see that
[13:23] <Unknown0BC> chinese noname funny hub.... ok sure, but it works under windows...
[13:23] <Unknown0BC> still puzzled.
[13:26] <b10s_> EriC^^, any ideas?
[13:27] <cofffeebean>   is their a tech or support room in here to set-up a dial connection ??..
[13:31] <MonkeyDust> cofffeebean  throw your question in this channel
[13:33] <cofffeebean> MonkeyDust,   i did ! ..
[13:36] <cofffeebean>    i'm not gettin a response thanks anyway..
[13:49] <clipse_> Any ideas why I wouldn't be able to access my System Settings from my menu? I click it and nothing happens.
[13:50] <vbgunz> I'm having an interesting issue. I've changed my PS1 colors to adapt to a white background on Yakuake and Konsole. Looks perfect. Ctrl+Alt+F1-6 though is a black background terminal and my "black text" disappears... how to fix other than change colors of my PS1?
[13:50] <vbgunz> can I add an "if" to my bashrc?
[13:52] <flux242> any suggestion on a small and fast image viewer editor? Something like gpicview but with simple editing functiolns like crop, cut, resolution change
[13:53] <clipse_> is there another way to access my system settings in gnome since the link in the cogwheel isn't working?
[13:54] <theadmin> vbgunz: You can check if $TERM is set I would think.
[13:54] <theadmin> vbgunz: Or. You can have your $PS1 contain a white background
[13:55] <MonkeyDust> clipse_  right click on the desktop, change background, selct "all settings"
[13:55] <vbgunz> theadmin: it's a really weird problem in a sense. there's got to be a simple fix, I don't mind not having color in F1 through F6
[13:56] <ssddkkaall> can ubuntu be made to run on galaxy s7580 w\o CM
[13:56] <MonkeyDust> !phone | ssddkkaall
[13:56] <clipse_> monkeydust: tried that and for some reason I don't even have the option available to change background when I right click the desktop.
[13:57] <MonkeyDust> clipse_  what's the outcome of   cat /etc/issue
[13:57] <theadmin> vbgunz: It is a pretty easy fix yeah
[13:58] <clipse_> let me check
[13:58] <theadmin> vbgunz: if [ -n "$DISPLAY" ] ; then export PS1="PS1-with-color" ; else export PS1="PS1-without-color" ; fi
[13:58] <theadmin> vbgunz: That should work
[13:58] <theadmin> Of course, set the prompts to whatever they really should be
[13:59] <clipse_> MonkeyDust: this is what I get when I run that Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> clipse_  in a terminal, run   unity-control-center
[14:02] <vbgunz> theadmin: thank you, that *DID* the trick nicely!
[14:02] <clipse_> MonkeyDust: that's it, apparently it must of been uninstalled somehow.
[14:03] <clipse_> MonkeyDust: working now, thanks for your help.
[14:04] <MonkeyDust> clipse_  glad i could help
[14:04] <mynameisdeleted> so.. unity/compiz+gnome both have issues on 4k screens(at least on pcie2 16x) in that they require too much graphics card io, and make windows update only a couple times a second and feel very sluggish
[14:04] <Radi> hi
[14:05] <mynameisdeleted> non-compositing window managers work fine.. as does kwin with compositing turned on or off
[14:05] <Radi> i have an issue with ubuntu
[14:05] <MonkeyDust> Radi  throw it in the channel
[14:05] <mynameisdeleted> my guess is there is no option for unity without compiz... so if I write post on ubuntu on 4k I have to recommend an alternate desktop, or find some way to performance tune compiz
[14:06] <mynameisdeleted> any known tricks to make compiz work better on ultra-high resolution displays
[14:06] <MonkeyDust> mynameisdeleted  unity IS a compiz plugin for gnome3
[14:06] <mynameisdeleted> yeah
[14:06] <Radi> I tried to install the nvidia driver for my GeForce 410M card, and it all went fine. However when I installed wine, the moment I ran winecfg, it started complaining for issues with xRandr 1.2, also games wont run in full screen
[14:06] <MonkeyDust> mynameisdeleted  try !ccsm
[14:06] <mynameisdeleted> my guess is if it doesnt work on gtx 970 well on any quad-core desktop processor then its broken at 4k
[14:07] <mynameisdeleted> and has to be discouraged for resolutions above 1080p
[14:07] <Radi> i am running on ubuntu 14.04 LTS
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> !ccsm | mynameisdeleted
[14:07] <mynameisdeleted> I have that.. I dont think I see options where it wil fix it
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> Radi: did you check the wine appdb to see if the games you have installed can run fullscreen in wine?
[14:08] <mynameisdeleted> thats the first thing I played with when I saw it running slowly
[14:08] <Radi> I forgot to mention, that when using Nouveau driver, the game runs in fullscreen, but graphics are pretty bad
[14:09] <Radi> And the other issue is that with the newest nvidia driver from their site, I get the screen to flicker at times
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: unity is a plugin for compiz. You cannot currently run unity if compiz is stopped
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> mynameisdeleted  then maybe unity-tweak-tool
[14:09] <b10s_> are there someone competent about chrome and java-plugin on ubuntu?
[14:10] <MonkeyDust> b10s_  use "familiar", rather than "competent", please
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> Radi: if you run: sudo lshw -C display , do you see an Intel GPU as well?
[14:10] <mynameisdeleted> for right now is it ok if I recommend not using unity till someone finds decent performance tunig for unity on nvidia @ 4k resolution?
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> b10s_: ask you question and see
[14:11] <Radi> root@Home-PC:/home/radi# lshw -C display   *-display                       description: VGA compatible controller        product: GF119M [GeForce 410M]        vendor: NVIDIA Corporation        physical id: 0        bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0        version: a1        width: 64 bits        clock: 33MHz        capabilities: pm msi pciexpress vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom        configuration: driver=nouveau latency=0        resou
[14:11] <flux242> mynameisdeleted: how well does it work with other compositors and window managers?
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: recommemd what you like.....
[14:11] <Radi> only this
[14:11] <mynameisdeleted> perfect
[14:11] <MonkeyDust> !paste | Radi
[14:11] <Radi> i reinstalled the OS, so now using nouveau
[14:11] <Radi> ok
[14:11] <flux242> what did you try?
[14:11] <mynameisdeleted> any window manager including composited ones except for those using compiz
[14:11] <mynameisdeleted> so gnome+metacity or kde+kwin or blackbox or whatever
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: kwin, mutter, xcompmgr
[14:12] <Radi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9645584/
[14:12] <mynameisdeleted> havent tried xcompmgr or mutter
[14:12] <Metacity> ?
[14:12] <mynameisdeleted> but kwin yes
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: why is compositing so important?
[14:12] <Metacity> Oh.
[14:12] <Metacity> Hi.
[14:12] <mynameisdeleted> it isn't for me.. but it is the new ubuntu standard for unity desktop
[14:12] <flux242> xcompmgr doesn't use gl, does it?
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: so, its not essentia
[14:12] <flux242> it's based on xrandr
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xcompmgr
[14:13] <mynameisdeleted> the issue is politically unity is ubuntus big push towards unified desktop for every device
[14:13] <flux242> mynameisdeleted: i'm using compton and i3
[14:14] <b10s_> i cant use java-plugin IcedTeaPlugin.so in my chromium in ubuntu (
[14:14] <mynameisdeleted> using ubuntu wiki to recommend against compiz might be bad for those reasons
[14:14] <Radi> i think i dont have intel GPU
[14:14] <b10s_> ActionParsnip, how can i fix it?
[14:14] <tete__> hi, i just downloaded 14.10 and wanted to start it in virtualbox, but seems like the video settings are horrible f*cked - i just see a lot of stripes in a few different colors
[14:14] <mynameisdeleted> I'll test the other mutter and other window managers too.. if those work well they can be recommended
[14:15] <mynameisdeleted> I have to keep in mind not everyone has gtx 970 or 980
[14:15] <mynameisdeleted> so I shoudl get maybe a gtx 760 or 750 and see which work well with those and maybe set those as minimum recommended 4k graphics card
[14:16] <mynameisdeleted> any window manager recommended has to work well with 10 windows on a gtx 750 including good resizing firefox performance
[14:16] <mynameisdeleted> and watching youtube etc
[14:16] <flux242> try i3 with compton
[14:16] <ObrienDave> tete_, did you install Vbox guest additions?
[14:17] <mynameisdeleted> installing that now
[14:17] <tete_> ObrienDave, can i install them without a distro running?
[14:17] <flux242> or even xfce with compton
[14:17] <ObrienDave> tete_, what is the host OS?
[14:17] <tete_> win7 x64
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> tete_  ubuntu runs better in vmware than in virtualbox
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> b10s_: I use the webupd8 ppa to install oracle java personally
[14:18] <flux242> xfce compositor is a waste because it's not gl based - tearing
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> tete_: did you md5 test the iso you downloaded?
[14:19] <tete_> no will just try that
[14:19] <mynameisdeleted> i3 with compton works great
[14:19] <mynameisdeleted> 100% light-weight feeling
[14:19] <flux242> yep
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: I prefer to install gnome shell for new installs, unless its my own then I use openbox as standalone window manager, no desktop
[14:20] <ObrienDave> tete_, sorry, i meant the Vbox extension pack
[14:20] <tete_> md5 is ok
[14:20] <mynameisdeleted> so no hard feelings about discouraging unity/compiz
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> tete_: if you didnt test it, how do you know that the file is complete and consistent
[14:20] <tete_> ActionParsnip, because it completly boots up
[14:20] <tete_> but as mentioned, its equal
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> mynameisdeleted: none, you are free to your opinion
[14:21] <tete_> vbox extension pack? is this for the host or the guest?
[14:21] <ObrienDave> host
[14:21] <ActionParsnip>  tete_ did you try changing the graphical setting in the guest settings
[14:21] <tete_> ActionParsnip, yes, from very low (12mb) to all enabled (128mb with 3d, 2d, ...)
[14:21] <b10s_> ActionParsnip, is it for crom or chromium?
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> b10s_: it should work in all browsers
[14:22] <Deathspike> Hello. I installed transmission-daemon and added torrents. When I stop and start the service again, all the torrents are gone from my list. How can I prevent this?
[14:22] <tete_> ObrienDave, are you sure i need them?
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> tete_: I'd ask in #vbox as it seems the issue is with settings in virtualbox, not ubuntu
[14:22] <Radi> any idea what should i do with that wine thing? only i havent tried installing xrandr 1 with wine 1.5
[14:23] <tete_> ActionParsnip, i have running debian too without any problems
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> tete_: maybe there are nuances in vbox for ubuntu. You could even try the mini iso then install the GUI from there.
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[14:24] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip, Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS \n \l
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> tete_  also consider using free vmware player, download and execute the bundle, then follow instruction https://www.vmware.com/products/player/
[14:26] <tete_> will try vmware..
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: may find a solution on https://forum.transmissionbt.com could also post your own question
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> tete_: I'd try mini iso first
[14:28] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip, the problem is that I don't have a concrete question. It just "forgets" all the torrents I loaded when it restarts. Is that the intended behaviour?
[14:29] <tete_> vmware works...
[14:29] <tete_> strange
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: "why are my torrents vanishing when the daemon is restarted"
[14:31] <MonkeyDust> Deathspike  if transmission fails, try Deluge
[14:35] <Deathspike> MonkeyDust, can I set it up headless deamon with auto load from folder?
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: is there a bug reported?
[14:37] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip: Not be me. I can't find info on it either. I can be almost as helpful as the usual "It doesn't work" which does absolutely nothing for anybody. I thought I had it set up, rebooted the service and bang; I don't care enough about transmission to report it and wait and pray for a fix if deluge works to my needs :/
[14:37] <Deathspike> That may sound really crude I'm sure.
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: report the issue. The bug guys wil request details from the system
[14:38] <Deathspike> It's just Ubuntu 12.04 LTS x64 base image.
[14:38] <Deathspike> Added PPA and installed. That's it.
[14:38] <Deathspike> Nothing special at all.
[14:38] <alexi5> hello
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: why a PPA?
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> !info transmission-daemon precise
[14:41] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip: Recommended installation from transmission site. I did with and without, same issues regardless.
[14:42] <Ignored_Radi> anybody has any idea from where to get wine 1.5 deb with dependencies
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: but the package which has been tested and known to work with your distribution without any issue is in the repos
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Ignored_Radi: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[14:42] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip: Like I said, regardless of PPA or not, the same issue persists. But hell, I'll spin up another VM and try it again then.
[14:43] <Ignored_Radi> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: I suggest you ditch the ppa and reinstall with the official package, you can do this with ppa purge
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> !info wine1.5 trusty
[14:43] <Ignored_Radi> do i need downgrade ubuntu?
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Ignored_Radi: not at all
[14:44] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip: PPA purge and then?
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: you said you installed the OS then added the PPA and installed the daemon, you never said you tried the official package
[14:45] <Deathspike> ActionParsnip: I did tell you that I tried with and without the PPA.
[14:45] <Deathspike> But I spun up another VM and I'll give it another go then
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> Deathspike: sudo apt-get install ppa-purge; sudo ppa-purge ppaaddresshere
[14:46] <Ignored_Radi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9645744/
[14:47] <tete_> since 10min. "Installing VMWare Tools. Please wait..." blinking cursor .. is it really that hard to get ubuntu working in a vm? 0o
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> Ignored_Radi: I'm not seeing 1.5 for Trusty. There may be a PPA somewhere. The Wine PPA has 1.7
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> tete_: never had a problem
[14:48] <MonkeyDust> tete_  i'm using it myself in vmware as we speak, works like a charm
[14:48] <Ignored_Radi> yes, but the card is having issues with xRandr 1.2 (at least this is what i read on forums)
[14:48] <Ignored_Radi> and only wine not to use it is <1.6
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> tete_: try Lubuntu. It is lighter and will impact less on the host
[14:49] <MonkeyDust> tete_  what ActionParsnip says, i'm using lxde
[14:49] <tete_> guess i will try it with jessie as i already have another jessie running without problems
[14:49] <tete_> jessie in virtualbox
[14:49] <tete_> anyway, thanks
[14:55] <MonkeyDust> what's jessie?
[14:55] <chu> MonkeyDust: Debian Jessie, I assume.
[14:56] <tete_> jop sorry, debian jessie
[14:56] <glcheetham> Hi, does anyone know when ruby going to be updated in the trusty repos from 1.9.3, which is now over a year old? I'm slightly concerned because rails 5 will not support ruby versions below 2.2
[14:58] <nicklasmoeller> 7M
[14:58] <nicklasmoeller> sorry, my bad
[15:00] <BluesKaj_> bad what ...mistake ? ...dumb movie lingo
[15:02] <theadmin> !info ruby2.1 | glcheetham
[15:03] <theadmin> glcheetham: Just install whatever version you want. The "ruby" package defaults to 1.9.3, but there are alternative ones as you see
[15:04] <glcheetham> theadmin: Cheers, thanks for that!
[15:06] <VimFleed> Could someone recommend a good download manager?
[15:06] <xangua> uget VimFleed
[15:06] <xangua> you can integrate it in firefox with flashgot addon
[15:07] <ssddkkaall> have a galaxy 7580 lying around. looking at it its just a souped up rbpi; can ubuntu be installed on it
[15:07] <xangua> you can also see a list of compatible download managers in flashgot
[15:07] <VimFleed> xangua, thanks, I'll try it
[15:12] <MonkeyDust> !hardware | ssddkkaall start here to find out
[15:14] <EriC^^> VimFleed: aria2 is pretty neat too, and can be used as a plugin with uget
[15:14] <EriC^^> ( it's cli based )
[15:16] <VimFleed> thanks EriC^^ I'll try that too, I like CLI based tools

[16:08] <pyroyoshi> Howdy everyone especially Jordan_U! I was hoping to get a little help adding an application to the Unity Launcher today
[16:08] <matthias_> hello, i want to be able to use my computer to answer phone calls from my android phone. use the speakers and my microphone instead of the phone ones. i tought i could do this if i let my phone think, that my pc is a bluetooth headset. any advises? later i will program a waiting line for callers.
[16:09] <cfhowlett> matthias_, pretty sure airdroid has the functionality
[16:09] <pyroyoshi> I did it with steam and it was as simple as launching the program and then locking to launcher. but that didnt work with Kerbal Space Program
[16:11] <matthias_> cfhowlett: only starting and ending the call, not stream the audio: http://help.airdroid.com/customer/portal/articles/1296531-can-i-make-a-phone-call-with-computer%E2%80%99s-mic-and-speakers-
[16:12] <xangua> pyroyoshi: if you did not install this program from repositories, you'll need to make a .desktop file https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles
[16:13] <lmat> at-spi2-registryd is taking lots of cpu. What is it, and how do I get it to relax?
[16:13] <lmat> It looks like it's an accessibility package in gnome.
[16:13] <lmat> Is it okay to kill it?
[16:13] <kostkon> pyroyoshi, search for it in the dash then drag it over to the launcher
[16:15] <delt> Hello
[16:15] <delt> i'm trying to compile a very simple dbus example
[16:15] <delt> i'm pretty sure i'm using all the right compiler flags, but i get a bunch of undefined references
[16:15] <delt> listen.c:(.text+0xb9): undefined reference to `dbus_bus_get'
[16:15] <delt> etc etc
[16:19] <lmat> delt: Did you pass any -l flags to cc?
[16:20] <delt> lmat: yeah, using pkg-config
[16:21] <delt> which expands to all the necessary include and lib flags, as far as i can see
[16:22] <lmat> delt: um yeah, I think that's good :)
[16:22] <lmat> delt: you should probably go to a programming channel and describe your problem in detail. ##c comes to mind.
[16:23] <delt> lmat: thanks
[16:26] <delt> DUH ---> 11:24 < barometz> delt: make sure your -ldbus or whatever the flag is doesn't come before the source files
[16:26] <pyroyoshi> xangua: So i made the .desktop file according to the instructions you sent but I can't drag it onto the unity launcher or into the usr/share/applications folders
[16:27] <delt> thanks for your help!
[16:31] <pyroyoshi> When I tried using the Move to from right click it said permission denied as the error
[16:37] <pyroyoshi> I figured out how to do it with sudo cp thanks!
[16:38] <jaboja> I tried to switch from Windows to Ubuntu. I've installed 14.04PL, but it works terribly. Firefox sometimes hangs for a second or several until reacting to clicks. On the other hand Windows 7 works on this PC correctly. What could I do about that? Will installing Ubuntu 12 help or should I try something other like moving from Gnome to other desktop environment?
[16:40] <timedifference13> Hmm. Specs?
[16:40] <dae-> jaboja ?
[16:40] <cfhowlett> !who
[16:40] <dae-> what is your configuration ? desktop or laptop ?, RAM ? CPU ? HDD ?
[16:40] <dae-> and what is the distrib and version tester ?
[16:41] <jaboja> desktop; the problem might be with graphics card as I had to remove my Nvidia card which stopped working and now am running on card integrated to motherboard
[16:43] <timedifference13> jaboja: What processor do you have?
[16:43] <dae-> i don't care to your graphic card ....
[16:44] <dae-> what is you proccessor frequancy, you memory RAM and you HDD capacity
[16:44] <dae-> free -h
[16:45] <dae-> hardinfo or sudo apt install -y hardinfo on ttf1
[16:45] <dae-> (ctrl alt F1)
[16:45] <matthias_> nobody a idea?
[16:46] <jaboja> moment please, I am writting from other PC, and need to turn on the problematic one
[16:46] <dae-> matthias_  what is your probleme guy ? =)
[16:46] <matthias_> dae-: i want to be able to use my computer to answer phone calls from my android phone. use the speakers and my microphone instead of the phone ones. i tought i could do this if i let my phone think, that my pc is a bluetooth headset. any advises? later i will program a waiting line for callers.
[16:47] <dae-> i don't have the knowedge for this probleme sorrry
[16:47] <matthias_> dae-: is it clear ?
[16:48] <dae-> jaboja , boot on your computer and go on tty1 (ctrl alt F1)
[16:48] <dae-> or boot on LiveUSB
[16:48] <matthias_> dae-: okay :/
[16:49] <timedifference13> matthias_: You might be in the wrong place to ask that. But as far as I know this isn´t possible with Ubuntu
[16:49] <matthias_> timedifference13: where's the right place ? :)
[16:49] <jatt> I'm getting
[16:49] <jatt> [ 7213.071302] init: plymouth-log main process (7722) terminated with status 1
[16:49] <jatt> what is this?
[16:50] <guite> daftykins: Hi, concerning my openCL install (we talked about yesterday), I read the post you sent me but doesn’t help much in fact… I don’t really know what I should do and I don’t want to install bumblebee
[16:50] <timedifference13> matthias_: I wouldn know. Sorry
[16:52] <dae-> timedifference13 evrythink is possible with ubuntu if you have hope and wait
[16:52] <guite> daftykins: I installed cuda toolkit just to see if it would help dri not to fail… but that didn’t change anything :)
[16:52] <dae-> hi jatt , i suppose it's a self-killing processus ?
[16:53] <dae-> jaboja ? are you ok ?
[16:53] <jaboja> dae-: RAM: 2GB, CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 5200+, HDD: 186GB (SAMSUNG HD200HJ SCSI)
[16:54] <matthias_> dae-: timedifference13 i read that bluez 5 dropped support for hfp. a2ap works for me out of the box. does anybody know how to path the hfp profile afterwards to bluez=
[16:55] <dae-> jaboja , download Lubuntu 14.10 and install it
[16:55] <dae-> LXDE is more light and fast
[16:55] <dae-> il you have less 4Go on RAM you can't une correcly unity / gnome
[16:55] <dae-> Lubuntu existed on x64
[16:56] <dae-> if you ahve some question on install contact me or #lubuntu
[16:56] <dae-> i have Lubuntu to and it work very speed ...
[16:57] <timedifference13> jaboja, I dont think that your iGPU is able to handle Unity. I´d take the advice from dea and switch to a more lightweight distro or desktop.
[16:57] <dae-> you can personnalise anything
[16:57] <dae-> http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2014/01/1419893460-2014-12-29-234849-1024x768-scrot.png
[16:57] <jaboja> Do I have to find non-gnome replacements for software I use (like gedit) or just the desktop envirnment itself?
[16:57] <dae-> format all
[16:57] <dae-> clean you HDD
[16:58] <dae-> and install correctly Lubutu (with LXDE) on 14.10
[16:58] <cfhowlett> Jabo, testing an alternate DE is easy.  sudo apt-get install lxde xfce4            then logout/choose a session/login
[16:58] <timedifference13> jaboja, You can run gnome software on Lubuntu
[16:58] <dae-> gedit => leafpad by default but after you can isntall it if you want
[16:59] <jaboja> Wont gnome dependence cause any problems?
[16:59] <dae-> you don't need gnome
[16:59] <jaboja> ok
[16:59] <dae-> maybe sometime KDE
[17:00] <timedifference13> Bye guys.
[17:02] <sudormrf> I think I figured out what is happening to my machine and preliminary research indicates why
[17:02] <sudormrf> for some reason my entire file system is switching to read only at random
[17:02] <sudormrf> causing major issues
[17:02] <sudormrf> preliminary research indicates this is due to a failing drive
[17:02] <sudormrf> bought a new SSD, will reinstall the OS to that when I get it and hopefully have better luck
[17:02] <cfhowlett> sudormrf, this is documented???
[17:03] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, is that a question or statement?
[17:03] <sudormrf> because the question marks at the end make it confusing
[17:04] <cfhowlett> sudormrf, question.  I've never heard of random "readonly" happening, much less associated with drive failure.
[17:08] <deshymers> Hello, I have virtualbox installed with a guest os of centos, it is setup with a bridged network, and has received an ip, and I can ping internal as well as external addresses.

[17:09] <deshymers> the error I get when I ping is "Destination Host Unreachable"

[17:14] <alex__c> Hi, I'm having some trouble finding a game in the repositories
[17:14] <alex__c> Accordint to this, the game isn't available on 14.10 ? https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/ryzom/
[17:16] <alex__c> I would need to know if/when Ryzom was un-listed from the repository for 14.10, if anyone knows :)
[17:17] <blackangelpr> for games alex__c would be better to stay with lts releases
[17:18] <alex__c> agreed, but another user told me they didn't find the game using Ubuntu Software Center on 14.04 either
[17:20] <blackangelpr> miss type i just verify and its there
[17:21] <alex__c> I'm pretty sure I've spelled "Ryzom" right..
[17:21] <dae-> you can use the 14-04 sources's if you want ...
[17:22] <Prezident> yes
[17:22] <blackangelpr> alex_c i mean your friend on 14.04  the game is not on 14.10
[17:23] <alex__c> it's possible they didn't have the relevant repository enabled, yes
[17:23] <alex__c> ok, any idea why the title isn't available for 14.10 ?

[17:25] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, http://serverfault.com/questions/186671/why-is-my-filesystem-being-mounted-read-only-in-linux
[17:25] <thequietone> it seems to be a pattern where no matter what Im typing, I will type "das"
[17:26] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, lel ok.
[17:26] <thequietone> holding backspace? "das" then the key works normally for about 6 characters
[17:26] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, I found a server fault thread where someone specifically said that linux will switch a file system to read only when a certain type of situation exsists
[17:26] <cfhowlett> sudormrf, got it.   if that describes your issue, replacing that HDD will will hopefully fix it.
[17:27] <thequietone> oh my god the arrow keys do it too
[17:27] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, pretty sure this is the problem.  it's a NUC, so really there are only 2 things I can replace other than replacing the entire unit.  the SSD or the RAM. lol
[17:27] <ada_> Hi All, How do I transfer all files within a directory to another and not transfer the whole directory? I'm trying to accomplish this on a headless server.
[17:27] <cfhowlett> sudormrf, ... seems like a good excuse to upgrade to SSD
[17:28] <ada_> When I meant whole directory I mean the folder itself. I just need to transfer the contents. I tired mv -v but it transfers the folder as well.
[17:30] <adrian_lc> how do I install a package without executing the postinstall script?
[17:30] <dae-> gksudo gedit (or leafpad) /etc/apt/source.list
[17:30] <dae-> password
[17:31] <dae-> and you add trusty
[17:32] <k1l_> dae-: dont mix releases
[17:34] <ada_> is there a mv command to transfer contents of a folder and no the entire folder itself?
[17:35] <SchrodingersScat> ada_: mv foo/* bar/ ?
[17:36] <J1> hoodibaba
[17:37] <J1> nyone der
[17:37] <SchrodingersScat> perhaps
[17:37] <k1l_> !ot | J1
[17:37] <ada_> I take it "foo" is the source and "bar" is the dest?
[17:37] <J1> can u guys help me with some advanced commands for terminal
[17:38] <asim> sure JI
[17:38] <asim> what do you basically want to do?
[17:38] <vexati0n> hey -- i have an ubuntu 14.04 server with 2 NICs. until now, the 2nd nic has been inactive, but i need to assign it an address. i edit /etc/network/interfaces, then ifup eth1, and i get the IP correctly. but 30-60 seconds later, the system removes the IP and leaves the interface unconfigured
[17:38] <J1> search packages on the net
[17:39] <asim> google is your friend..
[17:39] <ada_> Thanks SchrodingersScat
[17:39] <J1> ya but not a close one
[17:39] <SchrodingersScat> ada_: correct, you can check out 'man mv' for more
[17:39] <k1l_> !google | asim
[17:39] <jirido> Results for | asim on Google:
[17:39] <jirido> --
[17:40] <J1> ubottu thats the way to go
[17:40] <k1l_> J1: can you explain your issue more?
[17:40] <J1> i never did
[17:41] <SchrodingersScat> J1: you can do a 'sudo apt-get update' then search through them with 'apt-cache search <keyword or package>'
[17:41] <J1> like if i download some packages they do get downloaded but some shows package not available
[17:42] <k1l_> J1: please show the exact errors in a pastebin
[17:42] <J1> arent all packages accessiblle through terminal if we want to use cli
[17:43] <J1> ok @ schrodinger
[17:43] <k1l_> J1: yes. but we need to get to know what is going wrong on your system before we can blame someone
[17:43] <dae-> k1l_ , hi have some version on my sources and i don't have any problemes
[17:43] <dae-> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9646568/
[17:44] <k1l_> dae-: you are lucky that your system runs at all with that mess of sources.list with different releases and that much PPAs
[17:44] <J1> Reading package lists... Done
[17:44] <J1> Building dependency tree
[17:44] <J1> Reading state information... Done
[17:44] <J1> E: Unable to locate package evernote

[17:44] <dae-> bad copy past ...
[17:44] <k1l_> dae-: "your way" is not supported here
[17:45] <Pici> J1: There is no package by that name.
[17:45] <SchrodingersScat> J1: right, I also don't have an evernote in my repos.
[17:45] <k1l_> J1: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=evernote&searchon=names&suite=trusty&section=all    there is no evernote program at all
[17:46] <flux242> what's the purpose of the +o command an a channel followed immediately by -o ?
[17:47] <SchrodingersScat> flux242: that was an op kicking a bot out of the channel, they don't walk around opped.
[17:47] <alex__c> Evernote is currently not available
[17:47] <alex__c> for Linux
[17:47] <alex__c> Try Evernote's Web Client.
[17:47] <alex__c> that's what says on their website
[17:48] <J1> evernote-mode
[17:48] <Pici> J1: is a plugin for emacs.
[17:48] <flux242> SchrodingersScat: wouldn't -o be sufficient then?
[17:49] <flux242> or simply +b
[17:49] <oldster> not a lot going on here
[17:50] <SchrodingersScat> flux242: shouldn't dwell on it, but if you see there's a +o to make them the op, then they take care of their business, then there's the -o to remove them from op.  You should probably ask further questions in the !ot or #freenode ?
[17:50] <J1>  ok guys thans
[17:52] <oldster> is irc dead?
[17:52] <Seveas> yes.
[17:52] <Seveas> We just buried it.
[17:52] <oldster> good god that was quick
[17:52] <k1l_> oldster: for chitchat we have #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[18:14] <Defunkt> does anyone have any recomendations for automatically update/upgrade client computers?  We are currently using cronapt to do so but on some of our laptops we run into instances where they were turned off while the update process has started.  This results in all future runs of cronapt failing until being hand-touched
[18:14] <Defunkt> any suggestions would be appreciated
[18:14] <d3er23> Hello

[18:15] <dae-> what is you distrib and the version ?
[18:15] <dae-> and what is your config ? (HDD RAM CPU)
[18:15] <d3er23> 250gb external hd
[18:16] <d3er23> 8gb ram
[18:16] <lauren> hello everyone, sorry but I am new to linux and ubuntu. I just installed 14.04 and I have choppy audio/video in VLC and default video player. can anyone help?
[18:16] <d3er23> i5core
[18:16] <d3er23> and the dis is the newest one
[18:17] <d3er23> I wonder if it is causes my my external hd
[18:17] <d3er23> caused by*
[18:17] <XCVB> laure: Is it a cd?
[18:18] <XCVB> lauren: Is it a cd?
[18:19] <lauren> XCVB no its a local file
[18:19] <lauren> how do I type to you?
[18:19] <lauren> or where it highlights
[18:19] <XCVB> lauren: what video type is it?
[18:19] <Tuggy> Dear Ubuntu Community I'm having bit of a problem here, whenever I send firefox to background to deal with something else the whole system freezes, does anybody know why?
[18:20] <lauren> XCVB, MP4
[18:20] <XCVB> lauren: I think firefox or chromuim open them
[18:21] <lauren> XCVB, vlc has very choppy audo and video, when I open it in default video app the video is okay but the audio cuts out after a few seconds...
[18:21] <dae-> d3er23 maybe the swap ?
[18:21] <XCVB> lauren: have you played that file before?
[18:21] <d3er23> "swap"?
[18:21] <d3er23> not sure what you mean
[18:22] <dae-> the echang part
[18:23] <lauren> XCVB, yes on my windows laptop it plays fine
[18:23] <adrian_lc> how do I install a package without executing the postinstall script?  anyone knows please?
[18:23] <d3er23> dae-: ubuntu is on an external hd and I almost never used it
[18:23] <squinty> !tab | lauren
[18:23] <diminoten> hey when would I be bitten by this bug? https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=603237
[18:23] <d3er23> so nothing should have corrupted anything
[18:24] <diminoten> I'm having a bit of a hard time figuring out if I could be hit by that guy or not, I'm experiencing similar symptoms
[18:24] <clausen> how can I disable getty?  I can't figure out where it's invoked
[18:24] <diminoten> but its' from 2010, surely not something I could have run into with anything resembling a modern system
[18:24] <XCVB> lauren: Maybe the file is corrupted. DId you try firefox or chomuim?
[18:25] <lauren> XCVB, but it plays fine on my windows laptop?
[18:25] <squinty> lauren: to highlight a participant just type their name/nick.  besides the tab compleation, your irc client may also allow the use of double clicking on the persons nick and then pasting it
[18:25] <diminoten> specifically this error: "IOError: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.7/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)"
[18:25] <dae-> d3er23 , if you need faster use you need install on local HDD
[18:25] <d3er23> what about an external ssd drive?
[18:26] <d3er23> wouldn't that be fast?
[18:26] <clausen> answered my own question -- it's logind (*not* /etc/init/tty[1-6]) very confusing!
[18:26] <lauren> XCVB playback in chromium is choppy as well
[18:26] <dae-> lauren check your MP ^^
[18:27] <XCVB> how did you get it on your computer?
[18:27] <dae-> d3er23 nop is't a good idée
[18:27] <Neozonz> Anyone know what a kernel panic error looks like in demsg? looking to set an alert that would grep for it but dont know how exactly the error code displays
[18:27] <squinty> lauren: if this is a new install, then make sure your system is up to date.  look for Software and Updates in menu.  Also look for Additional Drivers in your menu.... see if that displays any video drivers to install
[18:27] <dae-> use a HDD for a live USB
[18:27] <dae-> ok
[18:27] <lauren> XCVB from an external hdd
[18:27] <dae-> instal ubuntu on external HDD is realy not a good idea
[18:27] <EriC^^> clausen: /etc/init/tty1.conf
[18:27] <d3er23> but why
[18:28] <XCVB> lauren: have play any other sound?
[18:28] <d3er23> if it can be installed on a flash drive usb a external hdd is much superior
[18:28] <clausen> EriC^^, I figured out it's actually in /etc/systemd/logind.conf
[18:28] <clausen> EriC^^, it moved (in 14.10)
[18:30] <lauren> squinty its a new install and i did all the updates first and tried recommended video drivers as well as proprietary with same result
[18:30] <lauren> squinty choppy audio and video in vlc
[18:30] <clausen> EriC^^, actually, it's *neither*!  I've disabled both, and they still keep on coming!
[18:30] <EriC^^> clausen: are you sure? did you comment out the exec line in tty?.conf ?
[18:31] <XCVB> lauren: have play any other sound?
[18:31] <clausen> EriC^^, I deleted /etc/init/tty*
[18:31] <XCVB> lauren: go to youtube and see if it plays correctly?
[18:31] <Paradisee> is there any program to stream on twitch by recording the screen?
[18:31] <XCVB> lauren: go to youtube and see if it plays correctly
[18:32] <thebozz> Guys, I need help recovering data from a dead server. I took out the disk where the data was and put it in another ubuntu server, but it's not recognizing the partitions inside. Is there anything I can do about that?
[18:32] <EriC^^> clausen: hehe :D
[18:32] <bekks> thebozz: How do you try to "recognize the partitions inside"?
[18:32] <lauren> XCVB, youtube plays fine
[18:32] <EriC^^> clausen: if you comment it out, you won't get a tty anymore
[18:33] <XCVB> lauren: try coping the file again
[18:33] <EriC^^> clausen: if you comment out tty1 lightdm will still start though
[18:33] <thebozz> bekks: I just sorta hoped the server's OS would recognize there's an EXT4 partition inside that disk and list it accordingly (like, "/dev/sdd1").
[18:33] <XCVB> lauren: maybe took out the hdd to soon
[18:33] <clausen> EriC^^, I uninstalled lightdm already :)
[18:33] <mac_> hy all.. i have a little problem.. my pc's cam is upside down..
[18:34] <clausen> EriC^^,  just need to figure out how to disable systemd-logind...
[18:34] <EriC^^> clausen: ok, then a comment should do it
[18:34] <thebozz> bekks: it actually did, but it used another letter for the drive :D
[18:34] <thebozz> Problem solved.
[18:36] <clausen> hmmm, anyone know where ubuntu 14.10 invokes systemd-logind?
[18:38] <MonkeyDust> clausen  what are you trying to do?
[18:38] <clausen> MonkeyDust, I want to disable all "getty" logins
[18:39] <clausen> MonkeyDust, (I want to just start some shells via a script in /etc/rc.local, without any login procedure)
[18:40] <MonkeyDust> clausen  is this useful http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/miscellaneous/4116-turn-off-extra-gettys.html
[18:40] <XCVB> clausen: Do what run a script when you boot?
[18:41] <MonkeyDust> clausen  nvm, ubuntu has no inittab
[18:41] <clausen> MonkeyDust, right
[18:42] <clausen> XCVB, yes, a script to open some shells (without asking for passwords)
[18:42] <XCVB> this work for ubuntu: http://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2013/07/running-a-python-script-at-boot-using-cron/
[18:43] <clausen> XCVB, the problem isn't starting my shells
[18:43] <clausen> XCVB, the problem is that the virtual terminals are all taken up by getty
[18:43] <clausen> (but thanks for the link!)
[18:44] <clausen> your link does have a relevant bit, but I'm afraid it's out of date... Ubuntu 14.10 no longer uses /etc/inittab
[18:45] <XCVB> clausen: it uses cron
[18:45] <clausen> XCVB, I mean, disabling getty involves finding where it's launched, and disabling it there
[18:46] <clausen> XCVB, getty used to be in /etc/inittab (as your link points out), but no longer
[18:46] <Pici> XCVB: cron isn't really relevant in this context.
[18:46] <XCVB> I did that and it worked for me.
[18:46] <XCVB> I used @reboot
[18:46] <Pici> clausen: getty is started by upstart currently, look at /etc/init/console.conf
[18:47] <Pici> the transition to systemd from upstart is just at the beginning, and really hasn't been implemented, although some of the packages are now available (and some may be installed by default)
[18:47] <XCVB> I had no problem
[18:47] <clausen> Pici, ps aux | grep systemd reveals that systemd-logind is running...
[18:48] <Pici> clausen: hrm.
[18:48] <clausen> Pici, /etc/init/console.conf seems to be inactive on my machine
[18:48] <clausen> (there are no getty instances whose command line matches it)
[18:49] <Pici> clausen: I guess I should upgrade at least one of my Ubunut installs to 14.10 then... (still on 14.04 for the most part)
[18:49] <clausen> Pici, it's very generous of you to take a look for me, though :)
[18:50] <Pici> Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
[18:50] <clausen> I'm trying to think about how I could find out how it's launched...
[18:51] <clausen> I suppose I could do a "binary search" through the boot process
[18:51] <clausen> i.e. interrupt the boot process at different stages, trying to locate exactly when systemd-logind is started
[18:58] <hichamat> how to give a user permission to home folder only
[18:59] <MonkeyDust> hichamat  as opposed to what?
[18:59] <clausen> hichamat, unix isn't very good at that kind of thing
[19:00] <clausen> hichamat, selinux is designed for that kind of thing...
[19:00] <hichamat> the user can see / tree but he must edit his home directory only
[19:00] <FreeMac> Hello everyone! I Have a question about installing Ubuntu on my Mac. Newbie here : )
[19:00] <clausen> hichamat, oh, if that's what you want... it should already be like that :)
[19:01] <FreeMac> I want to install Ubuntu on my drive, but first I want to partition it into two parts. My drive is 256GB SSD.
[19:02] <FreeMac> My problem is that I have a Time Machine backup for my entire drive. If I partition the drive on my computer, how would that affect my Time Machine backup on my external drive?
[19:03] <bekks> FreeMac: How did you get "Time Machine" for non-OSX? :)
[19:03] <FreeMac> Hello bekks, I didn't. I haven't installed Ubuntu yet.
[19:04] <FreeMac> I want to install Ubuntu on a separate partition on my internal drive. However, I was wondering how that would affect my Time Machine backup on my external drive.
[19:04] <clipse_> it won't
[19:05] <FreeMac> Wouldn't there be any loss in data, @clipse?
[19:06] <myrto> hello from greece
[19:06] <clipse_> not if your partitioning your drive to install ubuntu, Time Machine will continue to backup your OSX using whatever settings you have now.
[19:06] <XCVB> FreeMac: remove the external drive before installation
[19:07] <XCVB> something might happen
[19:07] <clipse_> that's probably a good idea also
[19:07] <clipse_> so you don't accidently parition or format your external drive
[19:07] <myrto> go a gnu retaliation
[19:08] <myrto> aek athens
[19:08] <myrto> is the greatest team in the world guys
[19:08] <FreeMac> Mhmm, that was my concern too.
[19:08] <clipse_> once you parition your ubuntu partitions will basically be invisible to time machine so you shouldn't see any change there.
[19:08] <myrto> even though i have installed xubuntu
[19:09] <myrto> the system tells me there i have to boot
[19:09] <myrto> or reboot from media
[19:09] <myrto> what should i do?
[19:09] <jkhl> I have an encrypted HDD that became inaccessible, got it in an external docking, the docking recognising the encryption and the correct key, but says 'the unlocked device does not have a recognisable file system on it'
[19:09] <clipse_> myrto: are you using a VM?
[19:09] <myrto> no
[19:09] <jkhl> does that mean I won't be able to access the data?
[19:10] <jkhl> or is there some other way to recover the data?
[19:10] <myrto> i can only access xubuntu by pressind ctrl alt delete
[19:10] <jkhl> (I don't know why the HDD originally become inaccessible)
[19:11] <myrto> is there a way to fix it?
[19:12] <clipse_> myrto: hrmm not sure then, sounded like an issue I had while using a VM but since it's not I have no idea what it may be.
[19:12] <myrto> thank you very much
[19:12] <myrto> have a great new year
[19:12] <FreeMac> I think I should be a bit more clear here. I have a 256GB SSD on my mac. My external drive is a 500GB HDD. I've partitioned my external drive like so: 300GB for Time Machine Backup, approx. 200GB for miscellaneous. My Macs drive is not partitioned. Now, however, I want to partition my Macs drive as well, so I can install Ubuntu in the additional partition. My question is, since my previous backup was made for the entire 256GB hard driv
[19:12] <FreeMac> mess the Time Machine backup?
[19:12] <myrto> where are you from?
[19:13] <clausen> so, in my quest to remove getty, I'm trying to find what /sbin/init is chosen by mkinitramfs...
[19:13] <clausen> any ideas?
[19:13] <clipse_> myrto: Michigan
[19:13] <myrto> nice is it snowing there?
[19:14] <clipse_> FreeMac: I don't think it will change anything on your Time Machine setup..it should continue to backup whatever is left on your OSX parition like normal and will ignore your new Ubuntu partition(s)
[19:14] <clipse_> myrto: nope, haven't had hardly any snow yet this year.
[19:14] <myrto> ok
[19:16] <clipse_> FreeMac: are you trying to install ubuntu on your SSD or External?
[19:16] <clipse_> brb
[19:17] <FreeMac> Clipse: I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my SSD.
[19:21] <jkhl> anyone?
[19:22] <clipse_> FreeMac: you should be fine then and shouldn't notice any change in your TM.
[19:23] <bubbasaures> jkhl, No backup?
[19:24] <FreeMac> clipse: Awesome, thanks for the help, Clipse!
[19:24] <clipse_> FreeMac: No problem and don't forget to disconnect your external before installing just to be safe.
[19:25] <FreeMac> clipse_: Sure thing, I will.
[19:25] <clipse_> FreeMac: I once wiped out around 100g of mp3s by not doing that lol
[19:25] <FreeMac> clipse_: lol
[19:25] <FreeMac> clipse_: that sounds horrible!
[19:26] <MonkeyDust> FreeMac  i erased my 500gb with all my backups and collections, years ago
[19:26] <clipse_> FreeMac: it wasn't fun that's for sure haha
[19:27] <Lorthirk> hello, i'm having hard times installing ubuntu 14.10 on my notebook. it seems noveau is causing troubles, i also tried nomodeset but it keeps freezing before installation screen... can someone help me?
[19:28] <temporary_btrfs> Hey guys, what's the easiest way to use btrfs during Ubuntu LiveUSB installation?
[19:30] <Guest10> Hallo
[19:30] <MonkeyDust> temporary_btrfs  start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/btrfs
[19:30] <Guest10> Hello
[19:31] <clausen> so, ubuntu seems to use busybox's init at the end of initramfs... is that right?
[19:31] <OerHeks> Our german friends have an excellent BTRFS howto http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Installieren_auf_Btrfs-Dateisystem
[19:32] <Guest10> Hi!
[19:32] <Guest10> German?
[19:32] <MonkeyDust> !de
[19:32] <temporary_btrfs> clausen: Time to pack out that German then, thank you a bunch!
[19:33] <Guest10> endlich jemand der deutsch spricht!
[19:33] <trism> clausen: logind will be running even if you are using upstart, are you sure the /etc/init/tty?.conf files are the ones starting getty? sudo stop tty2; then see if you can type anything on tty2
[19:33] <trism> err are = aren't
[19:33] <k1l> Guest10: in #ubuntu-de gibts die deutsche community. hier wird englisch gesprochen
[19:36] <clausen> trism, right, I'm sure logind is running, and I'm sure that /etc/init/tty*.conf are NOT responsible for getty
[19:36] <clausen> trism, I just don't understand why logind is running
[19:37] <clausen> trism, "stop tty2" gives "unknown job: tty2"
[19:37] <trism> clausen: we have been using logind for a while, it's running on 14.04 too, but there the tty?.conf jobs certainly are managing the getty instances (if you switched init to systemd in 14.10 then it would be different)
[19:38] <clausen> trism, I'm using upstart on 14.10
[19:38] <dopie> how do i add a user that only has access to a specific directory?
[19:38] <clausen> trism, so I have two questions: (1) how should I configure logind to do nothing? and (2) can I disable logind?
[19:39] <clausen> on (1): it is well documented, and I did what it says, and it's still active
[19:39] <clausen> (I put NAutoVTs=0 and ReserveVT=0 in /etc/systemd/logind.conf)
[19:40] <clausen> on (2): I have no where logind is getting launched
[19:40] <clausen> so I don't know where I can disable it
[19:41] <dopie> any help?!
[19:42] <trism> clausen: started by dbus
[19:42] <clausen> trism, ah, should have thought of that.  thanks!
[19:44] <clausen> trism, so, I can just comment out the ExecStart line of /lib/systemd/system/systemd-logind.service ?
[19:45] <trism> clausen: I'm going to boot a 14.10 system and take a look, but I don't really think logind is your problem
[19:45] <trism> clausen: it's probably not using that though unless you enabled systemd manually as init
[19:46] <trism> clausen: oh wait, maybe it is that they just changed the path
[19:47] <clausen>  trism: yes, my last proposal worked, finally!

[19:47] <jjbeefcake> Hello all, trying to get XRDP working on Lubuntu installation. When I RDP to the Lubuntu box, I get a login and then get what looks like grey checkered background and the X windows cursor
[19:48] <jjbeefcake> Can anyone point me in the correct direction?
[19:49] <jjbeefcake> I made a change to startwm.sh, |  #. /etc/X11/Xsession . /usr/bin/startlxde | per an article here http://wademurray.com/2014/xrdp-remote-desktop-on-lubuntu-14-04/ but still not much luck
[19:53] <Francis_Leach> Finally..
[19:53] <moonlander> the links here seem to be broken https://unity.ubuntu.com/projects/appindicators/
[19:53] <moonlander> did they move somewhere else?
[19:54] <MonkeyDust> jjbeefcake  http://wademurray.com/contact/
[19:55] <jjbeefcake> Thanks MonkeyDust! Not sure I want to trouble Wade, was hoping someone had XRDP knowledge the could help me out with. For some reason I thought Lubuntu had it enabled / installed by default.
[19:56] <Francis_Leach> I need a little help....I just installed a fresh install of Ubuntu, after getting a memory upgrade. Problem is, strangely, the remnents of a previous Opensuse mess appears to be still here, despite intending to format all and fresh install. Can anyone help me delete this partition (I think)?
[19:56] <jjbeefcake> I'll happily try another distro if you know it has xrdp enabled
[19:56] <jjbeefcake> by distro, I mean ubuntu distro of course
[19:59] <hay> hi, we have a server running 12.04 LTS with some ancient kernel - "Linux version 3.2.0-24-virtual" and I would like to upgrade kernel... can I use v3.18.1 .deb files with dpkg on such a system or some incompatibility issues might occur? thanks
[19:59] <bubbasaures> Francis_Leach, How are you seeing opensuse now?
[20:00] <Francis_Leach> under devices...
[20:00] <Francis_Leach> gives me an option (mount and open open suse)
[20:00] <bubbasaures> Francis_Leach, So far that makes no sense.
[20:00] <Francis_Leach> ok...
[20:01] <Francis_Leach> in nautilius, under devices, is computer..and opensuse
[20:01] <Francis_Leach> the opensuse, is from back when I made a mess installing/deleting
[20:01] <bubbasaures> Francis_Leach, devices meaning the partitions yes.
[20:01] <Francis_Leach> yes, I believe so
[20:02] <Francis_Leach> Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /media/liam/openSUSE 13.1 KDE Live: Command-line `mount -t "udf" -o
[20:02] <Francis_Leach> this is what comes up when i try to mount it
[20:02] <bubbasaures> Francis_Leach, Can you pastebin sudo parted -l and tell us which partition is which?
[20:03] <bonhoeffer> how do i prevent apache2 from starting on boot
[20:04] <trism> clausen: glad you figured it out, did disabling logind help?
[20:04] <clausen> trism, yes, it was the culprit
[20:04] <Francis_Leach> http://pastebin.com/mtRYQXeD
[20:04] <clausen> trism, I suppose there's a bug in it -- it wasn't respecting /etc/systemd/logind.conf
[20:04] <clausen> I suppose I should file a bug report
[20:05] <clausen> although I feel like the whole configuration is transitory
[20:05] <clausen> (in 15.04, it will be all changed all over again, and it's probably all temporary shims)
[20:05] <trism> yeah
[20:05] <notaeon> 5 year old celeron w/integrated graphics, 3gb ram, 5400 rpm hdd; is stock ubuntu too much?
[20:05] <xangua> for celeron better try xubuntu or lubuntu, if you want a smooth experience notaeon
[20:06] <EriC^^> bonhoeffer: sudo update-rc.d -f disable apache2
[20:06] <EriC^^> bonhoeffer: sudo update-rc.d -f apache2 disable
[20:06] <bubbasaures> Francis_Leach, only two partitions there an ext4 and a swap in an extended, not sure why you would see any partitions in devices, any externals not showing here?
[20:06] <notaeon> xangua: ok, so unity is still very heavy
[20:07] <clausen> trism, thanks a lot for the help!
[20:07] <clausen> trism, dbus is the last place I would have looked
[20:07] <notaeon> xangua: thank you
[20:07] <clausen> (I was expecting systemd would launch dbus, not the other way around...)
[20:07] <clausen> (but I don't know much about systemd)
[20:07] <Francis_Leach> Nope...that readout is actually exactly what I wanted...I deleted all partitions and started again. So I am really amazed as to how this shows up
[20:08] <EriC^^> Francis_Leach: udf is like an iso isnt it?
[20:08] <EriC^^> just press the eject button it should disappear and never come back i guess
[20:09] <Francis_Leach> No option to eject, but an option to format
[20:10] <clausen> EriC^^, yes, UDF is a filesystem designed for multisession write-once media
[20:11] <Francis_Leach> Tried to format, got this:Error synchronizing after initial wipe: Timed out waiting for object (udisks-error-quark, 0)
[20:11] <dongerino> has anyone converted their ubuntu to systemd?
[20:13] <NeurOSick> hi
[20:13] <NeurOSick> How can I run a .rdp or simply run a Virtualbox Remote Desktop server on Ubuntu 14.04 ?
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: you can install a Windows VM and RDP to it from the host
[20:14] <EriC^^> Francis_Leach: type udisksctl status
[20:15] <weaksauce> is it common for fetchmail to not respond to `/etc/init.d/fetchmail stop` commands? it says it worked but the daemon is still running
[20:15] <weaksauce> ubuntu 10.04
[20:15] <Francis_Leach> udisksctl status
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: if you set the network interface to bridged, it will get an IP from your LAN's DHCP server and will appear as a new system on the LAN
[20:16] <EriC^^> Francis_Leach: open a terminal and type it
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: if you want an RDP client then they do exist in Ubuntu. You can use rdesktop and connect to Windows systems via RDP
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: have you not started using PowerShell yet?
[20:17] <Francis_Leach> http://pastebin.com/8CLJrkke
[20:17] <Francis_Leach> sorry..
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> weaksauce: does: service fetchmail stop , not work?
[20:18] <weaksauce> ActionParsnip it does actually
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> weaksauce: then use that then, that's how it should be done
[20:19] <weaksauce> ActionParsnip actually the /etc/init.d/fetchmail stop also worked after I killed it and started it back up
[20:19] <NeurOSick> ActionParsnip: ok, but how can I run the gui like windows? normaly, I launch the WinXP VirtualMachine via a Remote Desktop Server port like ip:9000 via an .rdp on another windows7 machine.
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> weaksauce: strange indeed
[20:19] <weaksauce> why would fetchmail not stop is the better question I guess
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: run what GUI?
[20:22] <Foothebar> Hey! I'm workin in a small hardware startup where we use Ubunt on the control computer that runs the machine we are selling. Now a possible investor wants to have a proof that Ubuntu can be used for free and I'm really having troubles to find a quotable soure for the GPL-Status of Ubuntu
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: if the OS is running you can connect to it via RDP. It's that simple....
[20:22] <NeurOSick> ActionParsnip: My Virtualbox is on a debian server, when I start a VM via Win7, I just need to launch Remote Desktop and I use the Virtual Machine to use WinXP (for exemple)
[20:22] <jjbeefcake> NeurOSick: I think you need to install a desktop GUI and then enable vino / xrdp / x11VNC to login via GUI interfcace like windows remotely
[20:22] <Foothebar> Does anyone know where I can find that?
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> Foothebar: http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/licensing
[20:23] <peyam> Hi, I use dual monitor. one of the monitors blinking all the time. This , I think, happened since I update the kernel to 3.13.0.43-generic
[20:23] <Foothebar> Perfect. And know I feel a bit dumb :(
[20:23] <Foothebar> Thanks a lot!
[20:23] <MonkeyDust> Foothebar  ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: as
[20:24] <Foothebar> @MonkeyDust: Ok, i'll check the other rooms.
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: as long as the VM is running and accepting connections then you can RDP to it.... set the instance to run at boot and it will be good to go
[20:24] <servent> Hello fellow linux users
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> Hi servent
[20:25] <Francis_Leach> So...can anyone help with my extra partition that I cannot locate yet is here in my display?
[20:25] <NeurOSick> ActionParsnip: yes this is I want to do, but how can I RDP to it?
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> peyam: do you use proprietary drivers for video
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: set the network to bridged instead of NAT
[20:26] <peyam> ActionParsnip, I tried it last night. same problem. no I use the opensource one
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: it will then get an IP from your DHCP service and appear as a system on the LAN (as I said earlier already)
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: you can then RDP to that IP and connect
[20:27] <godlike1> hello! everytime i reboot my laptop the gnome shell reverts to a regular black background when i want it transparent.. is there a way to make it to where i dont have to set the transparency every time i reboot?
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> peyam: what video chip are you using?
[20:28] <peyam> ActionParsnip, you mean the graphic card?
[20:28] <godlike1> maybe something added to my .bashrc or .profile?
[20:28] <physixer> 14.04.1: what's the easiest/quickest way to upgrade to evince 3.14? (ubuntu latest is 3.10.3)
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> peyam: the card itself is moot, we want the GPU. sudo lshw -C display , will tel
[20:28] <benxyzzy> Would performance be affected by putting /usr on a USB HDD? Easiest (but probably slowest) solution being symlink off to some directory on the OS-mounted drive. This is an old headless box doing occasional admin on my home network - mostly idle. ubuntu server
[20:29] <ikonia> godlike1: thats a gnome shell extension
[20:29] <ikonia> godlike1: nothig to do with your non-gnome shell enviornment
[20:29] <godlike1> i want the gnome shell to be transparent is what im saying
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> physixer: evince is strongly linked to the Gnome version, so you will need the Gnome PPA which will also upgrade the entire desktop environment and mean we cannot support it here
[20:29] <ikonia> godlike1: yes, and you're using an extension to do that
[20:29] <peyam> ActionParsnip, product: Barts XT [Radeon HD 6870]
[20:29] <godlike1> when i load the gnome shell up i have to reset the transparency
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> peyam: ok then that is the GPU....
[20:30] <ikonia> godlike1: talk to the person who wrote the extension
[20:30] <peyam> ActionParsnip, what should I do?
[20:30] <godlike1> ...ok then?
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> peyam: have you checked in /var/log/Xorg.0.log for warnings and errors?
[20:30] <NeurOSick> ActionParsnip tanks :)
[20:30] <ikonia> godlike1: he will fix/support the extension
[20:30] <godlike1> alright
[20:30] <godlike1> i'll email him
[20:30] <godlike1> thanks
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> NeurOSick: easy days :)
[20:31] <peyam> ActionParsnip, its empty
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> peyam: have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the display?
[20:31] <peyam> yes.
[20:32] <peyam> ActionParsnip, ohh sorry. I do have a log
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> peyam: case sensitive dude

[20:34] <bonhoeffer> sudo kill %1 kill: failed to parse argument: '%1'
[20:35] <cpt_yossarian> bonhoeffer, you don't need the sudo. running it with sudo will try to kill root's first job
[20:35] <benxyzzy>  Would performance be affected by putting /usr on a USB HDD? Easiest (but probably slowest) solution being symlink off to some directory on the OS-mounted drive. This is an old headless box doing occasional admin on my home network - mostly idle. ubuntu server
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> peyam: if you use the display settings, can you set the res lower on the display?
[20:35] <bonhoeffer> kill %1 -bash: kill: (4056) - Operation not permitted
[20:35] <Jordan_U> bonhoeffer: Where did you get "%1" from? That is not a valid argument to kill.
[20:35] <benxyzzy> never mind, wrong channel
[20:35] <cpt_yossarian> do you own the process bonhoeffer?
[20:35] <bonhoeffer> not sure — but i was able to kill the pid
[20:35] <EriC^^> bonhoeffer: type jobs
[20:36] <bonhoeffer> all gone
[20:36] <cpt_yossarian> alright, that was strange
[20:36] <peyam> ActionParsnip, yes. buyt its  huge difference. lowe resolution is 1152x864
[20:36] <cpt_yossarian> Jordan_U, %1 is a valid argument. it's the first job.
[20:36] <benxyzzy>  Would performance be affected by putting /usr on a USB HDD? Easiest (but probably slowest) solution being symlink off to some directory on the OS-mounted drive. This is an old headless box doing occasional admin on my home network - mostly idle. ubuntu server
[20:36] <Jordan_U> cpt_yossarian: Thanks, learned something new :)
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> peyam: seems the EDID says it supports higher, maybe you cannot go higher than that on open drivers
[20:37] <cpt_yossarian> No problem :)
[20:37] <ikonia> bonhoeffer: yes
[20:37] <ikonia> bonhoeffer: oops sorry
[20:37] <peyam> ActionParsnip, what are you suggesting then?
[20:38] <Jordan_U> cpt_yossarian: I even diligently checked with "man kill", not realizing I needed "help kill" :)
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> peyam: could see if there is a known bug, or try the proprietary driver. Not sure really, I don't use Radeon GPUs.
[20:38] <cpt_yossarian> Jordan_U: yeah, i
[20:38] <harryspc> Hello
[20:38] <peyam> ActionParsnip, thank you very much. I think I will go with the property drivers
[20:38] <cpt_yossarian> Jordan_U: not sure why it isn't documented in the man page...*
[20:39] <cpt_yossarian> probably just an oversight lol
[20:39] <Jordan_U> cpt_yossarian: Because /bin/kill doesn't support %1, only bash's builtin kill does. So the man page is actually correct.
[20:39] <cpt_yossarian> Jordan_U: oops, that was dumb of me. that makes much more sense :)
[20:40] <mob4> Recently my keyboard no longer scrolls through the grub menu using Ubuntu Studio--Acquired a new keyboard the same behavior occurs
[20:40] <Jordan_U> cpt_yossarian: Now we can both feel dumb together :)
[20:40] <cpt_yossarian> Jordan_U: true :D
[20:41] <Jordan_U> mob4: Is your boot firmware UEFI or BIOS based?
[20:41] <mob4> BIOS intel
[20:42] <Jordan_U> mob4: Was your old keyboard that did work a ps2 keyboard?
[20:44] <mob4> No, USB 2 Razor worked just fine until recently the new one  is coolermaster devastator
[20:46] <xMopxShell> so am i right in thinking, that if youre cpu load is 1.05
[20:46] <xMopxShell> and your system stays exactly as busy
[20:46] <xMopxShell> shit will pile up over time?
[20:46] <xMopxShell> assuming you have 1 core
[20:46] <ikonia> tone down the language
[20:47] <ikonia> there is no need for it
[20:47] <ikonia> xMopxShell: there is no promise it will acculate, it depends on your system
[20:47] <ikonia> a load of 1.5 can be very healthy
[20:47] <ikonia> or a short busrt
[20:47] <ikonia> or bad news
[20:47] <ikonia> 1.5 is not a concern
[20:50] <xMopxShell> hm, yeah that makes more since
[20:51] <Ryvius> Help, windows often open on the wrong monitor, how do I fix that?
[20:54] <ubuntuheart> Hi, i am running the latest lts ubuntu server and was wondering if you know how to git pull an old version of an open git repo that i don't control
[20:55] <ubuntuheart> lets say that the latest version is 3.05 and i need version 2, but i am not the author of the code. the code is open source on github
[20:56] <ubuntuheart> what command can i use to get the desired version of the software
[20:56] <ikonia> ubuntuheart: you can't
[20:56] <ikonia> ubuntuheart: you use the versions supplied in the ubuntu repos
[20:57] <willwh> ubuntuheart: you can easily, git clone <repo>
[20:57] <willwh> git branch -a
[20:58] <willwh> to see all branches
[20:58] <willwh> and then, git checkout <desired_branch>
[20:59] <bekks> willwh: I guess his problem is that he needs an old version of git, not an old git branch :)
[20:59] <ikonia> that will not get you the software
[20:59] <ikonia> that will just get you the source code
[20:59] <Pici> I think thats what they were asking?
[20:59] <Pici> maybe
[20:59] <ikonia> I'm not sure,
[20:59] <dragos> hi\
[20:59] <ikonia> be nice to clarify
[20:59] <ubuntuheart> so that would only work if i there is a branch that is populated with the old code
[20:59] <ikonia> or a tag
[21:00] <ikonia> you cn pull a tag

[21:01] <bynarie> i have a file, busybox, which says i need to setuid root to it.. how do i do that?
[21:02] <ubuntuheart> i found that the repo had a "releases" tab that had older versions
[21:02] <ubuntuheart> thank you guys
[21:02] <bekks> bynarie: How did you get that file? Did you install it manually somehow?
[21:03] <bynarie> yea, well i compiled it from source
[21:04] <Jordan_U> bynarie: What is your end goal? Setuid can easily lead to a security nightmare and you shooting yourself in the foot.
[21:05] <bynarie> i was compiling busybox for arm.. i loaded it on my phone, tried to run it but i get permission denied... so its not really a ubuntu question per se, but im working on it on ubuntu
[21:06] <Ryvius> No one...? Is there no way to tell ubuntu only to open windows on a specific monitor?
[21:07] <Jordan_U> Ryvius: devilspie is a tool that allows you to configure which screen a window is created on, though there might be easier to use tools available.
[21:07] <Ryvius> devilspie says "No s-expressions loaded, quiting" ... wut?

[21:19] <zuzup> Hello, i have installed nvidia drivers on my laptop. But after trying a lot, i could not get it to drive both my built-in monitor and external connected through vga. My Intel card does that like a breeze. Hence, i want to turn off my nvidia gpu while still keeping the drivers for cuda capabilities
[21:19] <bekks> zuzup: You cannot turn off the GPU without uninstalling the drivers.
[21:20] <zuzup> Any suggestion? I do not want to install bbswitch if i could do it using tools already shipped with x/nvidia drivers
[21:20] <zuzup> bekks that sucks
[21:20] <teward> zuzup: you can't turn off the GPU without uninstalling the drivers
[21:21] <C1V0> zuzup, there are also thirt-party nvidia drivers that I've had some better success with in the past. Searching the interwebs now to see if I can find the name of the mpackage.
[21:21] <zuzup> teward that sucks, bekks says so too
[21:21] <zuzup> Sure C1V0
[21:22] <Brandon1000> I'm trying to complie a program and I don't know where to start, the program is: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg8879760#msg8879760 thanks for any help :)
[21:22] <bekks> C1V0: The nouveau driver does not support cuda.
[21:23] <C1V0> Ah, maybe it wasn't Nouveau then, after reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[21:23] <C1V0> I think what I thought were third party drivers WERE Nvidia drivers, lol.

[21:26] <moonlander> what's the difference between the packages virtualenv and python-virtualenv?

[21:27] <OerHeks> nothing, i guess
[21:27] <compdoc> if you program in python, the one should be more useful
[21:28] <Pici> err
[21:28] <x__> hey
[21:29]  * Brandon1000 is so confused by linux XD
[21:29] <jjbeefcake> lubuntu 14.10 does not have lxde installed. there was no "startlxde" in . /usr/bin. Now I'd rather actually have the default lubuntu 14.10 gui desktop, anyone know what that is called?
[21:30] <michael_p> hello
[21:30] <Pici> moonlander: 'virtualenv' seems to provide manpages and something in /usr/bin/ while python-virtualenv provides the actual python portion.  I don't have 14.10 here installed to check exactly what is in /usr/bin/virtualenv though, sorry.
[21:31] <synire> if I just install ntfs-3g via apt-get I should automatically see whats in my ntfs partitions right?
[21:31] <moonlander> yeah i just realized that virtualenv pulls in python3-virtualenv
[21:31] <moonlander> i was wondering why python-virtualenv wasn't installed hah
[21:32] <JoaoCSN> hi
[21:32] <_Amadeus_> HEy
[21:32] <JoaoCSN> speak portugues
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> !pt
[21:34] <_Amadeus_> can anyone help me about Xubuntu volumen indicator????????????????????
[21:34] <ActionParsnip> _Amadeus_: not without some details, no
[21:34] <mob4> jordan_U Thank you for your efforts -- Is there an avenue I might explore?
[21:35] <Brandon1000> Amadeus, hey what's the format for a file path for linux and how do I find the path to like just copy paste?
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: how do you mean the path to copy paste?
[21:36] <_Amadeus_> Brandon1000,   right click on the file and see Location
[21:38] <ActionParsnip> _Amadeus_: what is your issue with the volume indicator?
[21:39] <_Amadeus_> I fied the problem
[21:39] <_Amadeus_> fixed
[21:39] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: like the location of a folder, how would I write the path (or is there a way to just copy the path like windows)?
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: sure, click in the address bar in nautilus and it should show the real path of the folder you are in
[21:41] <_Amadeus_> Hey dose any of you guy do programing I'm interested in HTML and CSS
[21:42] <paradisebunny> hi! is there a way to add workspace icons to the top title bar in unity like it is in say xfce?
[21:42] <motaka2> Hello I had a file called task.php
[21:42] <motaka2> I deleted it from netbeans
[21:42] <motaka2> is there a way to recover it?
[21:42] <_Amadeus_> motaka2: trash?
[21:43] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: thanks I think I've got it now :)
[21:43] <Brandon1000> still pretty much lost but oh well XD
[21:43] <motaka2> _Amadeus_: no it doesnt go there
[21:43] <Brandon1000> I've having issues starting a .exe now in linux :P
[21:44] <_Amadeus_> lol
[21:44] <_Amadeus_> use Wine
[21:44] <_Amadeus_> brandon1000
[21:44] <ikonia> Brandon1000: you shouldn't really be trying to run .exe files in linux
[21:44] <ikonia> they are designed for windows
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: what are you wanting to run?
[21:45] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: well the file type is executable (application/x-executable)
[21:45] <ikonia> that wasn't the question
[21:45] <ikonia> what software are yo uwanting to run
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: ok, what are you wanting to run?
[21:45] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: http://burstcoin.eu/download/12-uray-burst-miner-%28linux-x64%29
[21:46] <ikonia> that shouldn't contain a .exe file
[21:46] <_Amadeus_> Hey what do you think about Atom text editor?
[21:46] <ikonia> _Amadeus_: whats the problem ?
[21:46] <Pici> _Amadeus_: you might be interested in #ubuntu-offtopic, #ubuntu is for support only.
[21:47] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: the file type says executable (application/x-executable) not sure if that means it's an exe or not :P
[21:47] <MonkeyDust> Brandon1000  exe is a windows extension
[21:48] <Brandon1000> what's the linux equivalant?
[21:48] <Pici> It sounds like it is just some sort of binary file, no telling what it actually is.
[21:48] <Pici> Er, no telling from that provided info, that is.
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: looks like its just a binary, open it in a terminal
[21:48] <Pici> 7/0
[21:49] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: what command?
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: what is the exact location and filename of the executable?
[21:50] <bonhoeffer> i’m in a wierd state with too many emacs jobs over ssh — any control keys results in ^C characters — any options?
[21:50] <bonhoeffer> i have three emacs jobs open
[21:50] <Jordan_U> mob4: Check your BIOS menus for an option like "Legacy USB support", which you want enabled. If you don't find any BIOS options you can try grub's native USB keyboard drivers, the process for which isn't currently well documented and I'm leaving now. #grub might be able to help, and if you can't find a BIOS option I can help you try grub's native drivers later today.
[21:50] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: executable (application/x-executable)
[21:50] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: opps '/home/brandon/Downloads/burst-miner-r4/burstminer'
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: perfect
[21:51] <revo> is it possible to use qbitorrent to copy http files i want to download ?
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: that is th command to run in terminal
[21:51] <mob4> I have enabled Legacy support Thanx again
[21:52] <Brandon1000> yayyyy :) thanks ActionParsnip!!
[21:52] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: when it says compile a program what do I have to do??
[21:52] <Brandon1000> was trying to complie this program: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg8879760#msg8879760 but I've got no clue what to do
[21:52] <rypervenche> Brandon1000: The instructions are right there on that page. The make command will compile it.
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: I suggest you become more fluemt with your OS before you start compiljng
[21:54] <l0rdkermit> <-^^ true story... learned the hard way
[21:55] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: lol yeah, the only thing I need the linux for is the one set of programs for now XD
[21:56] <ActionParsnip> Brandon1000: is there no alternative.... something prebuilt
[21:56] <revo>  can sum1 advise of program that can grab multiples http links for download ???
[21:56] <Brandon1000> ActionParsnip: there's some prebuilt but it said complie unless you can't (not sure if there's a reason why)
[21:57] <Brandon1000> revo: I know there's a link grab plugin for chrome, but it just clicks them.
[21:57] <gellioth> I plugged in two identic joysticks, but ubuntu just recognizes one, any idea? both are ok, I tested them in another computer
[21:57] <ActionParsnip> revo: deluge can do rss feeds (I think) utorrent may do it too
[21:58] <hpheads33> can i boot ubuntu from a floppy drive?
[21:58] <hpheads33> i have p2 266Mhz 128MB ram and 8GB Hard disk
[21:58] <revo> ActionParsnip, i downloaded qbtorrent, but had no luch, only works with torrent files
[21:58] <ActionParsnip> hpheads33: there is an image on pendrivelinux which will then boot usb
[21:58] <gellioth> nop.. I recommend you another distro
[21:59] <revo> Brandon1000,  clicks them ??
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> hpheads33: with that much RAM I would go with tinycore or puppy or slitaz etc
[21:59] <gellioth> or zenwalk
[21:59] <hpheads33> ok
[22:01] <gellioth> I plugged in two identic joysticks, but ubuntu just recognizes one, any idea? both are ok, I tested them in another computer
[22:07] <jhutchins> gellioth: Joystick ports or USB?
[22:10] <gellioth> jhutchins: USB
[22:15] <hpheads33> !ops
[22:15] <phunyguy> yes, hello.
[22:16] <hpheads33> !ops
[22:16] <phunyguy> stop that

[22:20] <kokut> anyone knows what's the ulimit -u command for?
[22:21] <philwong> Hello
[22:21] <philwong> is there any way to change the look of the window menu's in the new Ubuntu?
[22:21] <rypervenche> kokut: max user processes
[22:21] <rypervenche> kokut: Type "ulimit -a" to see all of the options.
[22:21] <Ryvius> There's a new ubuntu?
[22:21] <MonkeyDust> philwong  you mean the theme?
[22:21] <philwong> yes
[22:22] <bekks> Ryvius: 14.10 since October, 15.04 in April 2015.
[22:22] <MonkeyDust> philwong  find unity-tweak in the software center
[22:22] <philwong> I tried to load a new windows theme that I downloaded, but only the colors of the windows changed, the menu buttons do not
[22:22] <philwong> yes I have it
[22:22] <kokut> rypervenche: thanks man
[22:23] <MonkeyDust> philwong  gnome-look.org has some nice themes
[22:37] <civilizedgravy> anybody here?
[22:37] <dongerino> nope
[22:37] <Chuck_Norris> Chuck Norris present -.-
[22:38] <civilizedgravy> lol how do i change directory to a block device from /dev/disk/by-label/
[22:38] <philwong> can someone tell me the room for linux mint?
[22:39] <k1l> !mint | philwong
[22:40] <Chuck_Norris> civilizedgravy: i don't know about lvm sry
[22:40] <civilizedgravy> anyone know ho to cd to /dev/disk/by-label/drive_name?
[22:40] <civilizedgravy> oh :/ where could i ask?
[22:41] <bekks> civilizedgravy: Whats your actual question behind that?
[22:41] <Chuck_Norris> civilizedgravy: oh! i think you first have to mount that drive_name them you can "cd" to it
[22:41] <Chuck_Norris> then* you can...
[22:41] <philwong> ubottu: this link does not work
[22:41] <philwong> http://irc.spotchat.org/
[22:41] <civilizedgravy> okay lemme try
[22:41] <rww> philwong: it's not a link, it's the hostname of their IRC network
[22:42] <kokut> Hello, is it possible to block an application in ufw?
[22:42] <rww> philwong: since you don't have an actual IRC client by the look of it, you perhaps want http://spotchat.org/connect/
[22:42] <k1l> philwong: mint support is on a different irc server/network. see their website if you need more help (that should be automatic joining if you start a irc client on mint anyway)
[22:42] <philwong> ok thanks
[22:42] <philwong> will check
[22:42] <philwong> actually I got it when I manually typed it in google
[22:44] <civilizedgravy> ayyyyy it worked! thanks chuck_norris
[22:44] <Chuck_Norris> xD np
[22:47] <davido_> My mouse scroll wheel has stopped working reliably in Ubuntu (like in the past week).  Are there any recent known problems?
[22:48] <zuzup> Hello, I have installed nvidia driver (340.29) on my lenovo laptop having optimus support. I have a dual monitor (builtin+external on VGA) setup and had trouble configuring nvidia to work with the setup. I used `prime-select intel` to switch to intel which works well for my dual monitor setup. I am booted and logged in and would like to `modprobe nvidia_340` so that I can use NVIDIA only for CUDA programming purpose, i.e. selectively load NVIDIA drivers when
[22:48] <zuzup>  I want without disturbing the display through intel.
[22:48] <zuzup> `modprobe nvidia_340` fails saying no device found
[22:49] <zuzup> lspci | grep VGA shows both NVIDIA and Intel
[22:49] <k1l> davido_: are you sure its not a hardware failure? does the mouse work on other OS/pcs?
[22:50] <HoloIRCUser1> Hi
[22:50] <davido_> k1l : I'm not sure it isn't a hardware failure.  I'll have to give it a try elsewhere.  I do know that it DOES NOT fail within a VirtualBox Windows guest.
[22:51] <tunafish> Even though I got the rules file, polkit daemon doesn't include network.management file? any way to trigger it to read it? I can't edit my network settings
[22:51] <rberg-> zuzup: are you sure the module is called nvidia_340? usually its just nvidia
[22:51] <davido_> So I guess actually that does indicate that it's probably not hardware related.
[22:51] <zuzup> rberg: yes tab completion shows so
[22:51] <zuzup> rberg-: yes tab completion shows so
[22:52] <HoloIRCUser1> .
[22:53] <tunafish> found it, polkitd was interrupted bcz I got another file, backup, of the orginal.
[22:54] <zuzup> rberg-: there are 2 modules - nvidia_340 and nvidiafb
[22:55] <rberg-> weird on my system its always nvidia, but I dont know anything about how optimus works
[22:55] <zuzup> rberg-: Ok, thanks!
[22:59] <kaz_> Huh, weird
[23:00] <kaz_> I'm trying to get this executable running and Ubuntu doesn't recognize it at all
[23:00] <kaz_> "bash: ./dosbox: No such file or directory"
[23:00] <kaz_> Wookong SVN... yes, I did chmod
[23:01] <nmatrix9> Anyone ever have a weird experience where they can't access a share on their NAS?  But it can be accessed through the NAS admin interface?
[23:01] <JNixx> nmatrix9: What sort of NAS? Running Ubuntu?
[23:02] <daftykins> nmatrix9: read the logs
[23:03] <nmatrix9> JNixx, it's linux based I believe DLink Share Center 320
[23:04] <JNixx> nmatrix9: Are you usually required to log in to access the share or are they all public?
[23:04] <nmatrix9> daftykins, I did they just say anonymous or nmatrix9 tried to enter the share, but here is the weird thing even when I turn off password and make it readable to all I still cannot access the shares
[23:05] <daftykins> nmatrix9: as in make it guest readable?
[23:05] <nmatrix9> daftykins, yep
[23:05] <daftykins> quite honestly i have found consumer NASs to be the most simple of things to get going
[23:05] <JNixx> nmatrix9: Restart device ? :P
[23:06] <nmatrix9> daftykins, yeah worked reliably for years until last Saturday.
[23:06] <daftykins> nmatrix9: what's your method of mounting? GUI via nautilus? get playing with smbclient if so, makes life a lot easier
[23:06] <daftykins> smbclient //IP of NAS/share -U username
[23:06] <nmatrix9> JNixx, tried that even did a factory reset
[23:06] <JNixx> nmatrix9: So after factory reset you cannot access shares?
[23:06] <rypervenche> kaz_: Any reason you're not running the version of dosbox from you rrepos?
[23:07] <nmatrix9> daftykins, only think I could think of is when I tried to create a mount point on my ubuntu box access that share
[23:07] <daftykins> nmatrix9: only thing that would do what? :)
[23:08] <JNixx> nmatrix9: Jut out of curiosity. Are these NFS shares or SAMBA shares?
[23:08] <nmatrix9> daftykins, f*** things up like this some how
[23:08] <daftykins> nmatrix9: nah that's absolutely ridiculous. have you spoken of this in here before, too? i feel like i've seen the same topic from you for a week or more :D
[23:09] <w0lf> man, when unity disappears, unity really disappears
[23:09] <bubbasaures> that's the punchline, what's the setup
[23:10] <nmatrix9> daftykins, yeah I talked about with you before last Saturday or Sunday
[23:10] <daftykins> nmatrix9: ah ok, no progress since huh?
[23:10] <nmatrix9> daftykins, No I had to go to bed then go to work
[23:10] <kaz_> rypervenche: http://postimg.org/image/dzzydgkih/
[23:10] <JNixx> nmatrix9: I guess you tried a firmware upgrade?
[23:10] <nmatrix9> JNixx, yep
[23:11] <daftykins> nmatrix9: so what clients *does* it work from?
[23:11] <nmatrix9> Just a sec
[23:11] <rypervenche> kaz_: The question remains. Any reason you need the SVN version of dosbox? The Ubuntu version is the latest stable version.
[23:12] <kaz_> Well the SVN version accompanies my needs
[23:12] <kaz_> >__>
[23:12] <daftykins> ^ sounds like a "i don't know" :)
[23:12] <rypervenche> kaz_: What needs are those?
[23:12] <rebs> hey im trying to edit a file so i do : sudo vi file, but when I go to save it it doesnt let me save. I though sudo should override that
[23:13] <revo_> how can i check how many processor does ubuntu uses when booting up ?
[23:13] <daftykins> rebs: what file?
[23:13] <rebs> .nethackrc
[23:13] <kaz_> I think I figured out my answer to why it's not working.... It's probably that the "dosbox" executable is 32-bit and I'm running this on amd64 system.
[23:13] <rebs> its a config file for a game in my home dir
[23:13] <rebs> game isnt running
[23:13] <daftykins> revo_: what? for the boot process? 0o
[23:13] <nmatrix9> JNixx, It has shares for NFS, CIFS and FTP, the NFS and CIFS were set to r/w for guests
[23:13] <k1l> rebs: dont use sudo in your homedir
[23:14] <daftykins> rebs: you wouldn't need sudo for a file in your home directory, that's unnecessary. show a "ls -la" in a pastebin of this file
[23:14] <revo_> daftykins,  like in windows, by default, if u have 2 processors and 2 gb of memory windows by default only uses half of this
[23:14] <revo_> daftykins,  is this the same on ubuntu, ...point hee is to spedd my pc to its max potential
[23:15] <daftykins> revo_: sorry, totally pointless topic in my eyes. does it boot? yes, excellent job done :)
[23:15] <revo_> daftykins,  very slow....
[23:16] <daftykins> must be your setup
[23:16] <revo_> bios ?
[23:16] <revo_> os ?
[23:16] <rebs> re the file permission : http://paste.ubuntu.com/9648130/
[23:17] <rebs> i can see that the file in questoin is owned by root. isnt that sudo?
[23:17] <daftykins> rebs: which?
[23:17] <rebs> .nethackrc
[23:17] <rypervenche> rebs: you can write to it with :w!
[23:17] <rypervenche> rebs: or :wq!
[23:17] <rebs> but :wq wont take
[23:18] <rebs> thats odd
[23:18] <rypervenche> rebs: The reason is that you don't have write permissions on it, even as root. So you need the ! at the end to force it.
[23:18] <rebs> is that vi nuance i dont get or linux permissions
[23:18] <daftykins> rebs: sudo chown -R boris: .nethackrc
[23:18] <rebs> i see
[23:18] <k1l> rebs: sudo chown boris:boris that whole folder of .nethackrc
[23:18] <rebs> ok Ill try this - thanks for the tips folks
[23:18] <k1l> ah, daftykins is on it.
[23:18] <rypervenche> rebs: I would chmod 644 the file to no longer have the problem, I'd also chown it as daftykins showed you.
[23:19] <rebs> 10-4.
[23:19] <daftykins> ^5 team!
[23:19] <rebs> heh yeah good work
[23:20] <rebs> ccccombo
[23:20] <kaz_> nope thats not it, multiarch is already installed
[23:20] <kaz_> dangit
[23:23] <kaz_> i'll just compile it and see if it d0es anything
[23:24] <JNixx> nmatrix9: Seems strange. Without detailed logs it would just be guessing. Typical with appliances. Maybe you can SSH into the box and check /var/logs or whereever they keep logs - SSH Access explained near the end: http://dns323.kood.org/dns-320
[23:26] <Xinos> Linux sucks!
[23:26] <JNixx> Xinos: Why? Maybe we can help :)
[23:26] <Xinos> I dont think so
[23:27] <k1l> Xinos: this channel is not for ranting/flaming. please keep this channel clear for technical ubuntu support
[23:28] <Xinos> Ok, Im sorry and i know all of this. But everyone knows it: Linuxers are hobos
[23:29] <ghost562> hello people
[23:29] <daftykins> hi
[23:29] <ghost562> quick question, i don't have a backup hard disk, is it safe to upgrade from 12.04lts to 14.04.1 lts using command line?
[23:30] <daftykins> you should backup regardless. get one :)
[23:30] <daftykins> server or desktop?
[23:30] <ghost562> i don't have a very recent backup, im planning on getting a backup drive soon, once i recover from the holiday expenses
[23:30] <ghost562> desktop dafty
[23:30] <JNixx> ghost562: I would backup first. No point loosing data for no reason.
[23:30] <daftykins> ok, sounding like a really bad idea then
[23:31] <OerHeks> ghost562, make an 14.04 lts usb, just in case
[23:31] <bubbasaures> ghost562, Both have years of support I would backup first.
[23:31] <daftykins> ghost562: use any PPAs? proprietary graphics? that all has to come off first
[23:31] <ghost562> ok sounds good, im gonna see if i can find something, i do have 2 drives in my pc, one for storage and one for os, would unplugging storage work fine? im creating a 14.04 usb as we speak
[23:32] <ghost562> daftykins, no all using onboard gfx, i dont think ive added any ppa
[23:32] <daftykins> wher is it mounted?
[23:32] <daftykins> *where
[23:32] <daftykins> is it your /home ?
[23:32] <ghost562> it mounts as if it were a usb drive
[23:32] <ghost562> mounts as /media/storage
[23:32] <daftykins> ah ok
[23:32] <ghost562> thats what i call my drive, storage
[23:33] <daftykins> got enough space to backup your /home?
[23:33] <ghost562> yes
[23:33] <daftykins> woohoo, give that a go
[23:33] <JNixx> ghost562: disconnect it, then try to upgrade. Should also take a backup of your 'home' directory so you keep all your personalization settings as well if everything gets busted.
[23:33] <ghost562> jnixx, whats the command for that?
[23:33] <ghost562> dafty, will do
[23:34] <JNixx> ghost562 "cp -r /home/<user>/* /media/storage/home_backup/"
[23:34] <ghost562> JNixx, thanks will do
[23:36] <ghost562> jnixx, do i have to create that directory in my backup drive?
[23:36] <JNixx> ghost562: Yes :)
[23:36] <JNixx> ghost562: But you can call it wheever you want
[23:36] <JNixx> whatever*
[23:38] <ghost562> JNixx, keeps saying my folder isn't a directory
[23:38] <JNixx> ghost562 "cp -r /home/<user>/* /media/storage/home_backup"
[23:39] <JNixx> take away trailing slash
[23:39] <ghost562> ok i think i got it, hit enter, got a blinking box
[23:40] <daftykins> and a busy disk light with any luck
[23:40] <ghost562> yeah, hdd indicator is going berzerk
[23:41] <JNixx> Cool :)
[23:41] <ghost562> daftykins, yeah i checked the directory i pointed it to and its filling up.
[23:41] <ghost562> JNixx, thanks so much
[23:41] <JNixx> ghost562: Anytime.
[23:41] <daftykins> although you probably want all programs closed whilst doing that so nothing gets skipped
[23:41] <daftykins> i'd probably even do it from a live session
[23:42] <ghost562> daftykins, yeah, i went thru my home folder, nothing really on there, everything is on the storage drive. once the backup finishes, i will unplug drive and proceed with a clean install :D
[23:43] <daftykins> \o/
[23:43] <daftykins> ghost562: if you don't have much software that'll be easy, yep
[23:43] <ghost562> daftykins, i very rarely use my desktop just booted it today after not using it for a while. decided to upgrade and mess around and see whats new
[23:44] <daftykins> ah right
[23:44] <daftykins> not a lot ;)
[23:44] <JNixx> ghost562: Another neat trick is to keep /home as a seperate mount point. That way you can nuke the system partition (/) and reinstall, but still reatain your /home. Even if you change distro.
[23:45] <daftykins> although some config from that ~ can invariably cause issue with such reinstalls still
[23:45] <dts|pokeball> hey guys... ive got this program aporia, which is a specialized ide for a programming language, and i was wondering how i can add it to the quick launch bar to the side? just clicking lock to bar doesnt do anything, because when i exit out of the app and click on it again nothing happens
[23:45] <JNixx> daftykins: Yepp, true.
[23:45] <ghost562> daftykins, sweet ill check that out once i get the upgrade going :D
[23:46] <ghost562> dts|pokeball, drag it there or right click on it and select add to launcher
[23:46] <dts|pokeball> ty
[23:46] <ghost562> np
[23:47] <dts|pokeball> im dragging but it wont stick there
[23:47] <ghost562> dts, have you tried right clicking the icon and selecting add to launcher>?
[23:48] <dts|pokeball> ghost562, yes, and as i said, when i open it up again it doesnt do anything
[23:48] <JNixx> dts|pokebal: YOu can try creating a .desktop file. That's how i get touch to "Stick" programs on the launcher: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles
[23:48] <JNixx> touch = tough*
[23:48] <dts|pokeball> JNixx, thanks. thats what i was looking for i think
[23:53] <kaz_> uh, so I had to delete my tmp folder in root
[23:53] <kaz_> and created it again'
[23:53] <kaz_> it doesn't show up
[23:53] <kaz_> sigh
[23:55] <kaz_> but I do have the directory
[23:55] <kaz_> >.<
[23:55] <daftykins> is there a question hidden in there somewhere, or are you just venting? :)
[23:56] <kaz_> [18:55] <daftykins> is there a question hidden in there somewhere, or are you just venting? :)
[23:56] <kaz_> daftykins:
[23:56] <kaz_> [18:53] <kaz_> uh, so I had to delete my tmp folder in root [18:53] <kaz_> and created it again' [18:53] <kaz_> it doesn't show up
[23:56] <daftykins> those look like statements to me
[23:57] <ikonia> kaz_: what's the actual problem
[23:57] <kaz_> The tmp folder in root isn't visible in explorer
[23:57] <kaz_> but I can cd to it in terminal
[23:57] <ikonia> kaz_: do you mean "/tmp" ?
[23:57] <kaz_> yesh that
[23:57] <ikonia> kaz_: how did you create it ?
[23:58] <kaz_> ikonia: by su - root admin mode, "mkdir /tmp"
[23:58] <ikonia> kaz_: ubuntu has no root account, so this doesn't sound like ubuntu
[23:59] <ikonia> kaz_: please be specific about what you did
[23:59] <kaz_> *sigh*
[23:59] <kaz_> god dangit
[23:59] <ikonia> ok, don't
[23:59] <ikonia> good luck
[23:59] <ikonia> *sigh*
[23:59] <kaz_> I can't explain it well
[23:59] <ikonia> I'm not interested any more
[23:59] <Savenport> My Ubuntu install decided to just stop working for no apparent reason this morning :( When I boot up, I'm automatically sent to tty1 instead of the standard login screen. If I switch to tty7, I just see a bunch of lines with [OK] next to them. Does anyone know what might cause this?
[23:59] <ikonia> Savenport: sounds like a video card/driver problem
[23:59] <ikonia> Savenport: changed anything/updated anything
