petepiano1960farva: just running ./start.sh should work in fact.00:02
petepiano1960Ahhh - what do you get if you run 'which sh' ?00:03
farvathere is no output00:03
farvait just gives me a new command line00:03
EriC^^sh is a link to dash in ubuntu00:03
toasted_linuxDoes **apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64** installes grub_legecy or grub2?00:03
petepiano1960farva: run this command from your shell:00:03
petepiano1960ls -l /bin/sh00:03
EriC^^try bash ./start.sh00:03
EriC^^or just ./start.sh00:04
petepiano1960EriC^^: Yeah - I wonder if he is running it with dash00:04
farvaoh sweeet =]00:04
petepiano1960did ls -l /bin/sh tell you it is a link to dash ?00:04
petepiano1960if so that has been your problem.00:04

rwwtoasted_linux: grub200:05
EriC^^farva: you probably have a typo, did it say no file found or ..?00:06
petepiano1960farva: what happens if you run the script as /<pathname>/start.sh00:06
petepiano1960farva: where /<PATHNAME> is the location of the script directory ?00:06
toasted_linuxrww; really? I mean how could I find out for myself. for other softwares. to find which version of somewhere my command will install00:07
petepiano1960farva: so for example, if teh script is in your home directory, try00:07
rwwtoasted_linux: apt-cache policy grub-efi-amd6400:07

OerHeksfancyfetus, i guess you are right, only these commands are hardcoded in Unity i guess http://askubuntu.com/questions/451386/how-to-achieve-multi-touch-gestures-in-ubuntu-14-0400:08

toasted_linux  /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/cow'.00:09
toasted_linuxafter the install I get this00:09
OerHeksfancyfetus, maybe there are bugreports that ask for the same00:09
EriC^^toasted_linux: you need to mount bind the virtual filesystems if you're reinstalling from a chroot00:09
petepiano1960farva: you still there ? I need to sign off.00:10
farvayea sorry00:10
farvaI was making some adjustments00:11
toasted_linuxEriC^^: I am in ubuntu 14.04 live cd. trying to get the grub2 efi working to repair my bootloader00:11
farvaand it is up and running =]00:11
farvathank you very much <300:11
petepiano1960farva: what worked - was it running without the 'sh' prefix ?00:11
toasted_linuxEriC^^; so ?00:11
farvaI just specified the path in the command...even though I was in the correct dir00:12
farvaidk why, but it did the job00:12
EriC^^toasted_linux: exit the chroot00:12
EriC^^toasted_linux: where did you mount the installation?00:12
petepiano1960farva: OK. glad you are sorted. I think (as EriC^^ also noted) was that using the 'sh' prefix was running the script under a different shell (probably 'dash').00:13
farvayea...funny things these computers xD00:13
petepiano1960farva: the bit of magic at the start of the script (#!/bin/bash) means that the OS invokes that command on the script itself00:14

bittyxHi! I'm currently running Linux Mint 15 (based on Ubuntu 13.04). I want to abandon Mint and upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04. My /home folder is on a separate partition from root. Is there an easy way to reinstall everything while keeping my home folder intact and working with Ubuntu?00:19
EriC^^toasted_linux: ok, is this a fresh install?00:19
sonicx xubunto some times it boots up some times it won't how can I fix it and I duel boot it to00:20

Linkdead007Hi guys, so I am trying to Ubuntu live CD (I like what I am seeing so far) but before I can finally dump windows and make the switch I need a little help00:21
GeekMan1222_question if i wanted to ask for advice on a backup program for windows to use on my ubuntu sftp server could i ask that here xD00:21
toasted_linuxEric; fresh install of what? a new not presistent linux on a usb and my linux distro on my hard drive. doesn it answer your question?00:21
EriC^^toasted_linux: has your ubuntu installation worked before or you just installed it?00:22
k1lGeekMan1222_: best is to ask the windows guys what programs work best to backup their stuff. the ftp task will be no issue from the ubuntu side00:22
Linkdead007I don't get any sound out of my internal speakers, my headset gets sound fine (though a little on the quiet side) and the equalizer shows sound being played on the speakers, but nothing comes out.00:22
GeekMan1222_yeah k1l its all set and ready to go chrooted and all00:22
Linkdead007I had this same issue when I tried the Mint live CD as well, but I like the way Ubuntu looks better so I would like to stick with this00:23
GeekMan1222_just need to find some software i figure that was kinda off topic but thanks00:23
Linkdead007Any ideas anyone?00:26
Linkdead007Haven't been able to figure this out from surfing the message boards for a couple days now, and can't get any forum replies to the post I made.00:27
svetlanayou're missing a mention of your hardware specs (esp. what hardware for the speakers)00:27
Linkdead007I really want to make this work00:27
EriC^^toasted_linux: you there?00:27
Linkdead007How do I find that out?00:27
Linkdead007Im pretty new to this00:27
qubici have 2 copies of spyder on my machine. so when i search in unity, the copy opens spyder 2.7. i can access spyder 3.4 through the terminal. how can i remove spyder 2.7 from my machine and set my path so spyder 3.4 is in unity searc?00:28
Linkdead007Well, thanks for listening I guess, but this has become too much of a pain, can't find help either. (Understandable, this is community based, not a company) but I guess I'm back to windows.00:29

zim_Hi, just wondering if my gfx card driver is supported in ubuntu 14.0401:34
zim_it's        product: RV730/M96 [Mobility Radeon HD 4650/5165]01:34
cecjazim_: it is!01:34
zim_can anyone tell me thanks01:34
zim_it is really?01:35
pnormancecja: that's multiple apt-get invocations on the same command line if you're suggesting the common usage01:35
axzxchello?01:35
cecjazim_: yes totally01:35
zim_i tried installing it from the amd website the other day, and it didn't work, i wasnt able to boot into gnome at all01:36
zim_i had to go through hell to uninstall it, and it took me over 2.5 hours to do it01:36
zim_and boot into gnome again01:36
zim_is there any way i can install it with apt?01:37
cecjapnorman: sorry misunderstood no that is not possible01:37
somsipzim_: this might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD01:38
Bashing-omzim_: Different as " Radeon HD 4650 : is NOT supported by ATI .. it is legacy and no longer supported as of xserver v1.12 .01:39
zim_Bashing-om: yeah, so it wont work anymore if i try install it?01:40
zim_someone else was saying that yesterday01:41
Enissayis there a fast way to download those wallpapers via terminal ? using wget maybe...    http://minus.com/mPxswm5Mn01:42
Bashing-omzim_: Not in later 'buntu releases .. IF you realy realy have to have the FGLRX driver .. then one can install ubuntu release 12.04.1 .. that point 1 is the crucial thing .. It does contain the Xserver version that ATI supports .01:42
sonicxfunny ? cecja :01:43
zim_oh yeah thanks, so that's the only way? it wont work at all in 14.04 trusty, which is what i currently have installed?01:43
* zim_ can't get beyond earth running in steam, that's why01:43
cecjasonicx: there are good open source drivers for ati and they will work.01:44
Bashing-omzim_: starting with Ubuntu 12.04.2, the X-server version was updated to a newer version that is now incompatible with the HD 2x/3x/4x series AMD cards. Terminal command -> X -version to determine the x-server version.01:44
sonicx ? can be the usb  for the keyboard01:44
zim_X server 1.15.101:45
Bashing-omzim_: There are ways that ARE NOT supported, and will break your system - at some point in time . We Will not disuss it here.01:45
zim_yeah i might not worry about it then, don't want anymore issues with the system, yesterday fiddling around with it for 2.5 hours was enough01:46
sonicxbecause  I change the key bored01:47
zim_well that sucks01:47
cecjaEnissay: wget -r -A.jpg http://url-to-webpage-with-jpgs/01:47
zim_can't play beyond earth now on this laptop on linux01:47
Bashing-omzim_: In the long run .. invest in a new graphics card . Yeah, the sky is the limit when it comes to the cost .01:47
zim_it's a laptop so i can't01:47
sonicxcecja : I tk it was my key bored  lol01:48
Bashing-omzim_: As bad as it pains me to say ... there is no good solution .01:49
Enissaycecja OMG, dont leeeeeeaaave xD01:49
zim_sounds that way unfortunately01:49
zim_other than buy a new laptop01:50
Bashing-omzim_: OR invest a lot of time and effort learning the innards of the kernel .. and learn the hard way to fix-it when-you-will-break-it .01:51
zim_true could do that, would take a long time though01:52
Bashing-omzim_: I hear the figure is 10 years .. lol .01:53
zim_lol woah, that is a long time01:53
* zim_ might just boot back into windows 701:58
zim_and play beyond earth on there, then boot into linux when i'm not gaming01:58
zim_okay thanks for the help, i'll catch you around sometime01:58

AnusienI have an existing hard disk that suffered some kind of issue and I can't boot off it (but I can mount it and read data on windows). I get halfway through the boot process and it just hangs. Would it work to use the existing partitions and reinstall, or am I better off just copying the data, wiping it, and copying back?02:40

TurtleDanDid ya hear the latest infoabout the WIn 10 preview?03:33
daftykinsi've played with 10 in a VM, but i'm afraid #ubuntu-offtopic is for the general chat whilst here is for support queries alone03:34
ikoniaTurtleDan: thats not really something this channel is interested in discussing03:34
TurtleDanthey even mention it in the "Privacy Notice"  they use keylogger.03:34

svetlanayes, xmonad channel folks would tell you how to do it with command line - whether it is an ubuntu terminalor not, it does not matter04:22
econdudeawesomeit's not something that is done through Xmonad (the WM/DE) IIRC, it's done through X at the command line. It's outside of #xmonad's domain expertise04:23

ubottuwasanzy No support here i'm afraid.: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org06:21
bubbasauresjamie_, 3rd party eh?06:21

jamie_bubbasaures:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9696802/06:22
bubbasauresjamie_, I don't think that is supported here, it's mainly what is in the ubuntu repos, I have never heard of it so cannot help really.06:23
jamie_where could i get any help with this06:23

bubbasauresjamie_, Only 11 people there is all, you want to be careful in choosing what you run and the support behind it some times.06:26
jamie_bubbasaures: yea.... I know, usually i would do it myself.. but it is formatted different than i am used to with firefox os....06:27
bubbasauresjamie_ I do see a ppa of it for 14.04, not sure that helps, ppa's are a hit a miss for support here generally not any.06:28
wasanzyok06:28
jamie_bubbasaures: yea.... it dosent carry for some odd reason of to utopic unicorn06:28
jamie_i have tried... dependencies cant easily be met.... you would have to revert back to most of 14.04 and make it pointless to have 14.1006:29
jamie_darn.... I like to play a game or two when i'm not working.... guess i'll just get back to working... seems there is no one on #desura .....06:31

Ben64what exactly are you trying to accomplish? there is a better way than having root opening nautilus07:48
Ben64DeaDSouL: "sudo su" is bad too07:48
DeaDSouLyourbeau: or sudo ls /path/to/folder07:48
Stanley00yourbeau: I think you should tell us what do you want to do, and what did you do. It's better :307:48

DeaDSouLyourbeau: if it is an ftp.. make sure you have the write permission to the ftp folder07:52
=== The1AndOnlyKiwi is now known as Sachiru

isaac__i know my english very down07:59
yourbeauwhat should I do to make it belong to tom ?07:59
DeaDSouLyourbeau: the files belongs to root lol07:59

DeaDSouLyourbeau: chgrp -R tom /home/tom/Music/08:00
isaac__but i hope one day i can talk anything to abroad people08:00
DeaDSouLyourbeau: or this chown -R tom:tom /home/tom/Music/08:00
Stanley00DeaDSouL: or sudo chown -R tom:tom /home/tom/Music <= just one command :P08:00
DeaDSouLyourbeau: :P08:00
yourbeauDeaDSouL, what would that command do ?08:01
DSHackisaac__:  do chown -R tom /home/tom/Music/08:01

jarnosI can not open the exension store in chromium browser: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/extensions?hl=en-US08:20
DSHackhttp://chrome.google.com/webstore08:20
jarnosCan you?08:20
DSHackyeah08:21
blue_pearljarnos, do you get any error?08:21
DSHackYou need chromium 8+08:21
somsipjarnos: if you block certain hosts to avoid ads, that can kill the extension store.08:21
blue_pearljarnos, try openning it in incognito mode,it disables all installed ext08:22
jarnosblue_pearl, first it shows the page, but shortly comes an error screen: "Aw, Snap!\n\nSomething went wrong displaying this webpage.*"08:24
jarnosblue_pearl, that suggest reloading.08:25
blue_pearljarnos, did you try loading that page in incognito mode (shift+Ctrl+N)08:26
jarnosblue_pearl, it did the same in icognito mode.08:26
jarnosFirefox opens the page, but not very useful.08:27
dts|pokeballhey guys im looking for a couple of window managers... the first one is this kind of mac looking one found here (https://jamesfriend.com.au/pce-js/ ) it could also be BSD esque though too, and the second is one that doesnt have title bars on the top like unity does. any suggestions?08:27
cristian_cHello08:27
cristian_cI'd like to slow down a .mov video. I've tried with mencoder and speed parameter, but I don't understand how to make working this08:28
cristian_cAny ideas?08:28
somsipdts|pokeball: here is a sound basis for research http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_X_window_managers08:28
dts|pokeballsomsip, ty08:28
dts|pokeballalso, if i rm my ~/.ssh folder, to remove all of the keys there (since they are old and useless now), would there be any issues?08:30
DSHackjarnos: dude, have you tried opening dev tools on that page?08:32
somsipdts|pokeball: if you want to remove dead keys, remove dead keys. No need to go blitzing a whole folder08:32
dts|pokeballsomsip, the issue is i dont know which are the dead keys08:32
somsipdts|pokeball: so it's a bad idea to delete them all. You answered your own question08:33
blue_pearljarnos, did it suddenly stopped working? is your computer an old one?08:33
dts|pokeballsomsip, let me rephrase08:33
dts|pokeballthey are all dead, but i dont know if there are any files in there that ssh needs08:33
blue_pearljarnos, try disabling hardware acceleration ,it might help08:34
somsipdts|pokeball: what is there that aren't keys? config? authorized_keys? known_hosts?08:34
dts|pokeballno idea. i am very new to ssh.08:34
dts|pokeballi can ls it for you08:34
dts|pokeballto give you a better idea08:34
somsipdts|pokeball: ls it for yourself. Read up on what the other 3 files I just mentioned do, then decide if you keep them08:35
dts|pokeballok. thanks08:35
jarnosblue_pearl, it is Samsung NC1008:36
blue_pearljarnos, try disabling hardware acceleration , that might fix, if not ten try updating the Chromium browser from Dev PPA.08:37
jarnosblue_pearl, how to disable?08:37
blue_pearljarnos,  type chrome://settings in Chrome's address bar then click show advance settings, there u will see hardwre accelrtion u need to untick it08:39
blue_pearljarnos, after doing that close and open Chromium again, and try to visit webstore or extension store and check08:39
jarnosblue_pearl, it did not help08:42
blue_pearljarnos, which version u r using? try using the alternate dev version from the PPA, stable Dev PPA (http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/google_chrome)08:43
dts|pokeballis it possible to install kwin (the kde window manager) on unity, so it uses that instead of compiz?08:44
lysine7I would like to install through the minimal iso. To connect to the internet through my uni network, I need to setup proxy. How can I do that in minimal install?08:46
somsiplysine7: yes08:46
lysine7somsip: can you please tell me more?08:46
somsiplysine7: yes you can set up a proxy when doing a minimal install. Not sure what you mean by "more"08:47
microbeHello all.  I dont have sound on my fresh install, can someone help ?08:47
lysine7Oh, thanks.08:48
microbeIf i want to have the sound played trough my HDMI screen, should i install GPU proprietary nvidia driver ?08:49
DSHackdts|pokeball:  instead of compiz? how so?08:49
dts|pokeballDSHack, no idea. thats why i was asking08:49
DSHackdts|pokeball:  ok unity -> window manager 08:50
DSHackdts|pokeball: kde -> window manager08:50
dts|pokeballummm08:50
dts|pokeballi think unity is a desktop manager08:50
dts|pokeballi know kde is08:50
DSHackOk, so you want to put kde inside unity?08:51
dts|pokeballno08:51
DSHackkwin inside unity?08:51
acetakwashi all08:51
acetakwasI just installed the i3 tiling WM08:51
dts|pokeballi want to use unity with kde's window manager, kwin, instead of compiz, which is what comes with unity in ubuntu08:51
acetakwasit's my first experience with such a feature08:51
acetakwasSo far I've enjoyed it08:52
somsipacetakwas: do you have a question about it?08:52
acetakwasAre there some more efficient ways to use it?08:52
acetakwasLike stick certain programs to certain workspaces...e.g browsers?08:52
DSHackdts|pokeball: do you have kde-window-manager installed?08:53
somsipacetakwas: don't use your mouse, use a key-based navigation plugin on your browser. Everything else is up to you. i3 homepage may have some recommendations on workspace setups08:53
dts|pokeballDSHack, not yet. i wanted to know if it was possible before hand08:53
EriC^^dts|pokeball: why do you want to do that?08:53
acetakwassomsip, how do you mean?08:53
acetakwaskey-based?08:53
somsipacetakwas: which part?08:53
EriC^^dts|pokeball: unity is sometimes said to be a plugin for compiz, not sure if it would work with a different window manager08:54
dts|pokeballEriC^^, because i dont like compiz, but kwin looks more like what i want08:54
somsipacetakwas: what browser do you use?08:54
acetakwaschromium and firefox08:54
dts|pokeballEriC^^, so i should just install kde then?08:54
DSHackdts|pokeball: Yeah, install kde08:54
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: Yes, you can stick applications to certain workspaces, want me to get you the config option?08:54
somsipacetakwas: look at vimium and vimperator to get an idea. There are others that are less vim-inspired08:54
dts|pokeballdamn08:54
EriC^^dts|pokeball: not sure if it's possible08:55
dts|pokeballok, thanks08:55
DSHackdts|pokeball: Just login and change to KDE when you start ubuntu08:55
acetakwasobXiDeJSFQ, that'd be great, thanks :008:55
EriC^^dts|pokeball: ask around more , who knows08:55
DSHackdts|pokeball:  after you install kde package08:55
acetakwas;)08:55
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: assign [class="Chromium|Firefox"] $WS108:55
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: $WS1 has to be the name of the workspace (By default, this is just '1').08:55
acetakwassomsip, thanks, I'll check those out08:55
DSHackdts|pokeball:  so basically  install kde -> login in login screen with kde session -> profit08:55
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: To name workspaces, just rebind your keys:- bindsym $mod+1 workspace $WS108:55
dts|pokeballDSHack, yeah i know how to do that, i was just hoping to not have to do it08:56
DSHackwell, you can also instlal kde and run kwin inside unity dts|pokeball 08:56
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: I use a modified version of this, but, it has the full config there:- http://dotshare.it/dots/896/08:56
obXiDeJSFQ(And a screenshot)08:56
acetakwasobXiDeJSFQ, I think last command already exists in the config file08:56
DSHackbut it may cause undesired weird stuff, you just as well try it. dts|pokeball 08:56
DSHackdts|pokeball: http://askubuntu.com/questions/164762/can-kwin-be-used-in-unity08:56
DSHackquote: I've been using Unity-2D with KWin for about two weeks now. In the login screen, choose Unity-2D as your session type. Install the kde-window-manager package to get kwin. Then fire up a terminal and run kwin --replace &!. You'll probably want the systemsettings and kde-config-gtk packages for configuration.08:57
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: I highly recommend just reading through these configuration files, you'll get lots of ideas:- http://dotshare.it/category/wms/i3/08:57
acetakwasobXiDeJSFQ, okay thanks08:57
acetakwasI'll look it up08:57
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: Also, #i3 is the channel you want, not #ubuntu.08:58
acetakwasobXiDeJSFQ, okay joining...08:58
acetakwasI have another pressing issue08:59
acetakwaskeyboard mapping08:59
acetakwasThe current mapping appears to be US when it should be UK08:59
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: Isn't that a X issue?09:00
somsipacetakwas: one more suggestion - do you touch type?09:00
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: Add this[0] file to `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-keyboard.conf`:-09:00
obXiDeJSFQhttp://sprunge.us/VXhc09:01
DSHackdts|pokeball: did you see it?09:01
obXiDeJSFQAlthough, Ubuntu probably has some setting to do that in settings actually09:01
acetakwassomsip, I kind of09:01
obXiDeJSFQso, ignore my above suggestion09:01
dts|pokeballDSHack, yeah. thanks :)09:01
acetakwasthough not perfectly, but considerably so09:01
* obXiDeJSFQ is interested in why somsip was asking09:01
somsipacetakwas: then install something like klavaro and practice for a while everyday. If you're using a key-based WM you will be more efficient by not looking at the screen09:01
somsip*at the keyboard...doh09:02
acetakwaswould apt-get do that?09:02
Quoexlchange to a dvorak keyboard if you want to fly09:02
somsip!info klavaro | acetakwas09:02
ubottuacetakwas: klavaro (source: klavaro): Flexible touch typing tutor. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.00-1 (utopic), package size 618 kB, installed size 2900 kB09:02
obXiDeJSFQsomsip: Although I 100% agree that you should really learn to touch type, I disagree that it'll really help that much on a tiling window manager specifically (But obviously will help with typing). I've been using i3 for a few months now, I don't think of keybindings as keybindings, I just think of them as patterns.09:02
somsipobXiDeJSFQ: I use awesome and not i3, but if you can'09:03
somsipt hit keys accurately (like I just didn'09:03
somsipt) (oh bum...) then it will be slower. And I'm trying to be too quick for my own good here...09:03
obXiDeJSFQSo, for instance, to move a workspace from my left monitor to my right monitor, I press ctrl+alt+c, I don't think of that, I just think "Those keys at the bottom left of my screen" and my hand flies and hits the correct keys.09:03
obXiDeJSFQs/ctrl+alt+c/ctrl+win+c/g09:03
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: Do you have multiple monitors?09:04
somsipobXiDeJSFQ: hands should not really fly. fingers should </pedant>09:04
acetakwasobXiDeJSFQ, Nope09:04
obXiDeJSFQsomeone: I'd like to see you press ctrl+win+c without moving your left hand.09:04
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: Oh. Forget it then.09:04
acetakwasokay09:05
obXiDeJSFQs/someone/somsip/09:05
somsipobXiDeJSFQ: anyway - effiency is always improved by touch typing, and he was asking about that, and he's got a recommendation09:05
acetakwasOfcourse09:05
obXiDeJSFQsomsip: Yeah, like I said, I don't disagree he should learn to touch type, I just disagree it'll help that much with keyboard bindings that he's using literally every day.09:05
acetakwasI do touch-type, but the mystery is that I find it difficult in the dark09:06
somsipobXiDeJSFQ: fair enough. EOT for me09:06
acetakwasConflictingly, I like to turn-off the lights09:06
acetakwasin my room, ofcourse09:06
obXiDeJSFQacetakwas: I'm a little confused how you find it hard to type in the dark, yet can type without looking at your keyboard in the light.09:06
acetakwasI'm a bit confused by it myself09:07
somsippyschosomatic09:07
acetakwasI feel some part of my eyes might be (subconsciously) looking at the keys09:07
somsiptouch typing doesn't help improve spelling either... I'm going back to working :)09:07
obXiDeJSFQsomsip: But a spellchecker does.09:08
* obXiDeJSFQ dislikes my IRC client doesn't have a spellchecker09:08
Quoexlall the ink is worn off my keyboard so that wouldnt help09:08
somsipobXiDeJSFQ: don't have one. Anyway...09:08
brothersomeThe dots onf the F and J will help09:08
Quoexltheyre mere nublets09:08
* obXiDeJSFQ 's keyboard's letters are see-through plastic because my keyboard has LED under it (Which I have turned off), so, they can't wear away.09:09
Quoexlthis keyboard has been around since christ was a corporal09:09

theadmindarksider: If the paths are outside standard directories, you can use #include "/full/path/to/file.h" and you need to pass -L/path/to/folder/with/files.so to gcc.09:43
ralphsmedarksider: Yes nobody in ubuntu can program a simple C hello world.09:44

RoryI'm away from work next week, but I'd like access via SSH to my laptop. My laptop is behind NAT, but I have access to another machine on the Internet and I was hoping to be able to set up some sort of reverse SSH proxy tunnel. I'd like the connection to re-connect if my laptop or the server on the Internet drop their connections10:11
ralphsmeJitsi I heard is good.10:12
Roryie, I'll open a connection to the server on the Internet from the work laptop, and then connect to a specific port on that server from anywhere, which will be as if I'd ssh'd directly to the work laptop.10:12

obXiDeJSFQQuatroking: 14:00, why are you doing */1 though?13:02
obXiDeJSFQ* = every possible unit13:02
obXiDeJSFQ*/1 = every possible unit that's divisible by 1.13:02
obXiDeJSFQ(I.E. Every possible unit)13:03
hadifarnoudBluesKaj: it doesn't work. (I'm terminal, no X or gui)13:03
Quatrokingthat's what jpds suggested13:03
obXiDeJSFQhadifarnoud: Do you want to copy one line or an entire file?13:03
obXiDeJSFQEntire file, use `cp` or `rsync`.13:03
obXiDeJSFQOne line?13:03
* obXiDeJSFQ shrugs13:03
obXiDeJSFQuse Vim13:03
hadifarnoudobXiDeJSFQ: one line13:04
obXiDeJSFQWith Vim you can just type `dd` to cut the current line, open the other file, then press `p` to paste.13:04
BluesKajhadifarnoud, what is your real issue? ...we need more details13:04
hadifarnoudobXiDeJSFQ: cp or rsync copies the whole file. I want to append it to /etc/network/interfaces13:04
hadifarnoudBluesKaj: a long wifi hash pass I want to paste into interfaces file13:04
GeoMinthi the command systemctl restart systemd-logind returns me "Failed to get D-Bus connection: Operation not permitted" (sudo too) when i change the line of /etc/systemd/logind.conf to #HandleLidSwitch=poweroff in  xubuntu13:05
obXiDeJSFQhadifarnoud: use vim13:05
hadifarnoudobXiDeJSFQ: no vim installed I'm afraid13:05
obXiDeJSFQhadifarnoud: install it, or use some awkward awk command13:05
blippehadifarnoud then vi is probably installed.13:05

teak_ubuntu 14.04: windows programs under wine cannot open pdf documents. eg in wine explorer, click on a pdf file, window pops up: there is no windows program configured to open this type of file13:07
alexssoncfhowlett, why not?13:07
cfhowlettteak_, did you install a windows .pdf reader?  no?13:07
teak_yes I did cfhowlett13:07
cfhowlettalexsson, get a usb.  install ubuntu to usb.  put usb in glove box of car.  it's now installed.  OR13:08
cfhowlettalexsson,  you can wait, like the rest of the world, for official linux / auto support.13:08
BluesKajalexsson, do you have a hdd in your car, and does it have an OS or is it strictly for media storage13:08
cfhowlettteak_, it's wine.  it's not 100%13:08
teak_cfhowlett, I hear you13:09
cfhowlett!wine | teak_, take a look at winehq13:09
ubottuteak_, take a look at winehq: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu13:09
teak_cfhowlett, it seems like this would be a biggie though and I can't seem to find the right search terms for google to show me the discussions13:10
hadifarnoudcan't copy text between files with vi either. says "nothing in register" blippe BluesKaj13:10
teak_it does not help that #winehq wants a way newer version of wine installed before questions get asked13:10
LordCrimsonhello. After I've switched back from kubuntu to ubuntu desktop keyboard lang indicator is broken http://i.snag.gy/87hfb.jpg Could you please make a hint, which package should be reinstalled?13:11
cfhowlettteak_, given all the linux .pdf readers, I suspect hacking .wine for windows pdf just isn't a priority.  but ... what do i know?13:11
BluesKajhadifarnoud, if you were on a desktop , it would be very simple13:12
teak_cfhowlett, I would be ok with the win program opening the pdf in a linux reader. to be clear, I can read pdfs in the windows pdf reader program. I cannot get a normal program that wants to call a pdf reader to function13:12
* obXiDeJSFQ uses Chromium's HTML5 PDF reader13:12
hadifarnoudBluesKaj: yeah, I know that!13:12
* obXiDeJSFQ has no issue with it13:12
BluesKajhad so why no desktop, you must have other issues which need help first, hadifarnoud13:13
obXiDeJSFQhadifarnoud: What's wrong with my awk script?13:14

JBzhGood afternoon. I want to prank a co-worker on my Ubuntu workstation but I don't know how to research what I want on google: when we leave our workstation we must lock it. When someone forget to lock his station, co-workers use it for various prank. What I want is to code something that would lock my workstation but leave the screen like it hasn't been locked, and when someone move the mouse it execute my code. Any help on how I could 13:17
hadifarnoudBluesKaj: argghh, wanted to avoid that :D13:17
=== Guest97291 is now known as wpm
acetakwasobXiDeJSFQ, okay, I'm here now13:17
hadifarnoudbtw why >> doesn't work on files that need sudo ?13:17
acetakwasis there a keybinding to cycle through workspaces13:17
cfhowlettJBzh, you don't know how to search on goole ... and you want to mess with someone else's computer ... yeah, can't help you there.13:18
JBzhcfhowlett: no, I don't want to mess with anyones computer13:18
obXiDeJSFQJBzh: `dd if=/dev/input/mouse of=/dev/null bs=1 count=1 && yourcode`, probably not the best, but, eh...13:18
JBzhI want to code someting on MY computer13:18
theadminhadifarnoud: >> is a shell redirection, it is processed by Bash and Bash isn't running as root, it's running as a regular user.13:19
obXiDeJSFQJBzh: /dev/input/mouse is a special file that outputs the raw input from the mouse, no movement = blocks, read 1 byte from it (See:- dd) and it'll block until movement.13:19
cfhowlettJBzh, xscreensaver has those plugins.  unplug your mouse and let it fly13:19
obXiDeJSFQBut like I said, probably not the best way of going about it.13:19
theadminhadifarnoud: As a workaround, use: command | sudo tee -a /path/to/file13:19
theadminhadifarnoud: (without -a if you would normally use > and not >>)13:19
JBzhwell, I'm not sure I expressed myself well. I want to code something that would let my screen with no modification, as if I forgot to lock my workstation. Then, I want to control events like mouse movement or keypress to execute my code. So when a co-worker will try to prank me, thinking that I forgot to lock my workstation, an audio file would be played, for instance, something funny.13:26

helpwithunetbootApologies for my naivety, I've just downloaded unetbootin-linux-608 and can't figure out what to do with it. It's an executable but when try running it it ask what application I want to open it with13:30

helpwithunetbootalso, if I'm in the wrong place, some directions would be greatly appreciated13:31

theadminhelpwithunetboot: In properties, Permissions, set "Allow executing this file".13:32
cfhowletthelpwithunetboot, whenever possible13:32
JBzhobXiDeJSFQ: well, this method does not really lock the workstation, only the mouse. I still want my workstation to be safely locked while I'm away. I work in a secure environement.13:32
theadminhelpwithunetboot: Then you can run it.13:33
obXiDeJSFQJBzh: Step 1. Use my method (But don't, it's terrible)13:33
helpwithunetbootmakes sense, found it now! many thanks!13:33
obXiDeJSFQJBzh: Step 2. Lock your screen13:33
obXiDeJSFQJBzh: Step 3. No step 3, your code is running and your workspace is locked.13:33

fragment137I have dnsmasq running on an ubuntu 12.04 vm. It has two vnics, eth0 and eth1. eth0 is serving as its internet connection and eth1 is supposed to be the default gateway for the internal network.22:11

Yvesubo isnt as noob he told i fear22:22
Yvesthanks22:22
melvinso i still have this weird question, remember i'm a noob. Is Grub already in Xubuntu? :$22:23
k1lmelvin: yes.22:23
melvini feel so retarded now xd22:23
mmazingmy clock is incorrect suddenly, and can't seem to figure it out. ntp is running, timezone is set, when i run dpkg-reconfigure tzdata, it shows UTC time incorrectly as well22:23

Yvesdont feel retarted22:24
Yveswhen learning22:24

k1lmmazing: how much incorrect?22:24
sudormrfis there a way to do something like shock what appears to be a stuck process with 1,000,000 volts so it wakes up and finishes?22:24
sudormrf:D22:24
melvinYves, thanks. k1l, how do i boot into grub?22:24
mmazingim set to CST (GMT-7, i think) and my install thinks that CST time is equal to GMT at the moment22:25
sudormrfthe more serious question is, I am trying to get this thing to finish, but it seems like the process is hanging.  I want to "prod" it so that it moves on.  Is there a way to do so?22:25
Yvesmelvin: this is documented into community22:25
Yveson web22:25
mmazing"Universal Time is now:  Sat Jan 10 04:21:52 UTC 2015."22:26

OerHeksmelvin, hold shift @ boot22:26
Yvesother way is to get a grub tool22:26
k1lmelvin: you need to install grub into the hdd that will be booted first. then when you bootup and that hdd is the first one to be booted than you will be given a selection menue like this http://tombuntu.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/grub2_menu.jpg22:26
Yvesyes melvin22:26
RNevillefragment137: I was able to purchase my items through ebay , using Chromium, so it is a problem in Firefox 34 Ubuntu Canonical 1.022:26
Yvesthere is a grub tool22:27
Yvesbetter than all that22:27
sudormrf"prod" isn't the right word I am sure.  I am just trying to forcibly wake or unstick a process without killing it.22:27

Yvesmy system is fresh installed22:27

k1lmelvin: yes. it should be already included.22:27
Yvesin windows?22:27
RNevillececja: ?22:28

melvinhttp://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-09-01-15-233327.php22:34
phre4kRNeville: it works if your sound works generally22:34
melvinthere is the link guys :)22:35
phre4kRNeville: that said, Skype is a really bad piece of software. Mumble is a lot better for audio conferencing22:35

tgm4883RNeville: well, very small amounts of money a lot of times22:35
k1lmelvin: ok, you can use a text pastebin like the bot message told :)22:35
RNevilleI like the database for Skype, and I pay for to be able to connect to cell and landlines22:35

cecjaphre4k: yeah, you are right.23:04
fragment137hje841: the salvaged drive is probably split into separate partitions23:05
Yvesarrrgh23:05
fragment137hje841: depending on which OS was originally installed first, ubuntu may be on a different partition23:05
YvesThats why i propose my neandertalus solution23:05
Yves:)23:05
Yvesexact frag23:06
Yvesthats the problem23:06
hje841fragment137, it is. it was my main drive before. and originally it was with Win7 on it and I made room for some extra stuff. the mbr table is a mess23:06
Yvesdepends on the order you installed all taht23:06
fragment137hje841: might want to just salvage what information you want off it and start fresh then23:07
Yvesagreeing23:07
Yvesand then later23:07
Yvesavoid windows23:07
Yveslol23:07

Yvesmelvin23:11
hje841fragment137, I have a key on the back of my laptop - partly worn - but I think the win7 recovery partition is unreachable23:11
Yvesi didnt find better than disconnect all drives23:11
bubbasauresdoomlord_, We just basically deal with actual problems, if there is one describe it.23:11
Yvesthen install a new ubuntu23:11
Yvesgrub will work23:12
Yvesi know im basics23:12
fragment137hje841: recovery partition is good for initial drivers and what not, but you can also burn an ISO (if you know where to find one) and install a fresh base23:12
fragment137then build your drivers off that.23:12
melvinyves, my boot order+pc almost went out the window23:12
fragment137or just.. install drivers from that.23:12
melvinyves, grub is working now :)23:12
Yves;)23:12

=== anthony is now known as Guest18542
fragment137bubbasaures: care to clarify?23:14
bubbasauresfragment137, Sure, state your issue for help.23:15
Yvesplz reformulate bud23:15
fragment137lol. I've tried. Thought i'd take the chance that someone would see dnsmasq in bold23:15
fragment137In any case:23:15
hje841fragment137, hmm.. so any key would work with any iso? ( that's a Win specific question.. but still)23:15
melvinfragment137, you want to network boot?23:16
Yvesdnsmasq <--- in bold23:16
fragment137hje841: Windows keys work with their version (home,pro, etc.)23:16
fragment137they'll work with 32 or 64bit, and you should be able to use your 7 key for a base install23:16

flexusgot cracking sound on pulse and jack, any idea?23:16
Yvesi did cut internet access to my win23:17
fragment137For my issue: I have dnsmasq on a small ubuntu vm. DHCP is set up and working nicely... I'm even getting proper DNS through dnsmasq.. however, none of the vms who got an IP address can access the internet. Can't ping google dns23:17
Yvessolved all23:17
Yveswill study dnsmasq frag23:18
fragment137sweet.23:18
hje841fragment137, thanks. I'll try that out - maybe whipe the MBR in the process23:18
fragment137hje841: Glad I could help :")23:18
fragment137:)*** and good luck!23:18
hje841fragment137, oh thanks.. not that I plan on mounting that drive permanently anywhere with Win7 on it...23:19
cecjafragment137: can you ping the host? or say your router in your homenetwork from the vm?23:20
Yvesfragment137: Thats why i say thx23:21
fragment137cecja: yes I can.23:21
Yvesguys23:22
fragment137cecja: one minute, i'm going to try and do a quick drawing of my current setup23:22
Yvesyou will kill frag23:22
stegohmm23:22
Yvessee later23:22
stegowhy is courier-imap such unwilling to allow clients to connect23:23
Yvesstego: i talked to my internet provider about that23:24
stegonot even local can connect to it23:24
stegoeverything is open just courier that drops the connections23:24
Yvespop3 is better but not always working23:24
Yvesdonno why23:24
Yvesimap is a sure way23:25
Yvesbut you loose your stuff23:25
Yvesdonno if your Thunderbird got backup of your stuff23:26
stegoits a brand new server i just cant get courier to accept connections23:26

fragment137cecja: this is my basic setup: http://picpaste.com/pics/Capture-w670QszH.1420846047.PNG23:27
cecjafragment137: everything is working except external dns resolve?23:28
fragment137external dns resolve actually works23:28
NytramJust for giggles and it won't take long because there'sanimport option, try installing Evolution. I use Thunderbird but I have also used Evolution. I think Evo's imap handling is better. Please don't ask why, I just found it so.23:28
fragment137which is the weird part23:28
fragment137for instance, I can resolve my home domain23:28
fragment137which is completely outside of this network23:29
fragment137but I can't ping google DNS23:29
fragment137I don't think dnsmasq is forwarding net traffic23:29
cecjafragment137: can you surf ip based?23:29
fragment137no23:29
fragment137this is a command line VM by the wya23:29
fragment137headless****23:29
cecjalynx and stuff :P23:29
cecjafragment137: can you ping any other site except your homedomain?23:30
Yvesstégo - install a stupid std email - look - and make the same with your provided23:30
fragment137cecja: the pings don't actually go through, but the DNS resolution does23:30
fragment137it's very odd23:30
fragment137one minute.23:30
Yvesunless you can talk to some1 intelligent at your service23:30
fragment137I think I may know why... dnsmasq has net connectivity, and I believe it may be locally storing dns entries.23:31
cecjafragment137: your iptables?23:31
fragment137cecja: possibly.23:32
Yveshahah23:32
fragment137I hate iptables.23:32
Yvesgood luck23:32
