BBLLCCk1l_, so the idea is to reboot the system and start it from the usb cd?00:01
k1l_BBLLCC, you cant resize the partitions you just use. so you need a live system to do that00:01
k1l_use a live usb, or live cd or live dvd00:02
RudeViper|Awayok - I finally got the hardware stuff sorted out on the server install - ugh....Normally I search google for answers before asking questions here - only this time I don't know what search terms will get me the results I need....I would like to know how to make the command prompts (ie chuck@apollo) that appear on the cli screen show up in color - I've seen it in several youtube videos and even00:02
RudeViper|Awayon LinuxMint live cd terminal windows.... How can I do this in ubuntu server?00:02
BBLLCCtoo lazy to do that now:D00:02
newbooterNow to move the swap partition to another disk...00:02
newbooterDoes anyone know if there is a reason btw for Disk and Gparted reporting free space when df reports disk is full? Difference seems to be about 680 MB.00:03
BBLLCCk1l_, but I still need to reboot the system and restart it from the livecd, right?00:03
k1l_RudeViper|Away, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizingBashPrompt00:03
k1l_BBLLCC, yes. you cant repair the car you are driving :)00:04
=== RudeViper|Away is now known as RudeViper
bekksnewbooter: Well, I tols you about 3 times to free up space ;)00:04
RudeViperthanks kil_00:04
bekksnewbooter: a disk is full when either no inodes are available anymore, or when all available space is used, but inodes are still available.00:05
BBLLCCto make a livecd I need to download the OS I chose and convert it with unetbooting, is that correct?00:07
k1l_you can use dd for ubuntu isos00:07
BBLLCCk1l_, is dd in the repo?00:08
k1l_its preinstalled on all ubuntu installations00:09
k1l_ubuntu even got a graphical iso to usb tool: usb creator00:09
BBLLCCdont find it under system00:10

delinquentme<_habnabit> delinquentme, your user's input data types will be in this set: {str}00:11
newbooterOk bekks but I just don't get why Disks and Gparted report free space when in fact the disk is full. Maybe there is a good reason, but I find it very illogical and confusing.00:11
k1l_BBLLCC, what ubuntu are you on exactly?00:11
BBLLCC14.1000:11
BBLLCCmake startup disk?00:11
k1l_newbooter, you are mixing things here. you mix filesystem and partitions.00:11
k1l_BBLLCC, the "installer disk" is a live system. just choose "use ubuntu without installing" at starting that00:12
k1l_newbooter, ext4 keeps about 5% locked from the users and just to root, for letting the recovery still boot into the system even when a user made the whole disk full.00:14
newbooterAh that makes sense k1l_. Thanks for the clarification :)00:15
newbooterAnd yes I am probably mixing partitions and filesystems...00:15
newbooterSo if I create a partition of type linux-swap on another physical disk by using gparted on a live session, will the linux install know of the existence of that new swap file when I reboot into it? Does gparted take care of that?00:22
k1l_no. you need to put that into your fstab to be used on ubuntu startup00:27
leonicmhello i can ´t install unrar00:28
Bashing-omnewbooter: New swap, you have to edit /etc/fstab with the new UUID .00:29
leonicis missing  do i have to enable aniting  in the sofware center ??00:29
CptRageToasterunrar?00:29
BBLLCCk1l_, how much time does my machine need to create the disc?00:30
CptRageToastercan the archive manager not handle .rar's?00:30
leonicyeh ton manage rar files00:30
leonicnop00:30
CptRageToasterleonic: command line? Or software center?00:30

CptRageToasterwhat happens with sudo apt-get install unrar?00:31
CptRageToasterI'm assuming it errors00:31
CptRageToastercan you pastebin the error?00:31
k1l_BBLLCC, depends on the speed of that usb thing00:31
leonicit say is unavilable but is referred by another package00:32
newbooterOk thanks Bashing-om. I will read up on that. ANd if I move the existing swap partition? Or is not possible to move to another physical disk with gparted?00:33
CptRageToasterleonic: Please pastebin the error00:33
CptRageToasterYou're paraphrase is useless00:33

k1l_leonic, is multiverse enabled?00:33

xxneolithicxxhi all, does anyone know if ubuntu 14.04 has any recent iwlwifi issues? I did a fresh install on my brothers thinkpad a while ago and wifi worked fine, now it wont connect at all after some of the recent updates.

UllarahHello everyone! Going to give Ubuntu another go since Dapper Drake :P Now I'm installing it on an SSD, and I found this, https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/ssd - Question is, do I have to do any of that after I install Ubuntu to my SSD? Going to be using 14.10 :)01:33
Yukendadis: Think I could make an ext4 partition, and use that as a hard disk for a virtual machine, then install GRUB and point to that as a linux distro?01:34
dadisYuken, is the PC you have access to functional?01:34
Yukendadis: Using it right now.01:35
dadisYuken, what OS?01:35
Yukendadis: Admin Rights, Windows 7.01:35
k1l_Ullarah, no, ubuntu takes care that its on a ssd if you make a install now01:35

notdanielis there any decent way to do a full install of ubuntu onto a flash drive, but still have it boot like the live usb images do? like ive installed onto the flash drive but then it won't boot so well on machines where the drive ordering is different, etc. live usb boots the same wherever01:36
dadisYuken, why don't you just use virtualbox until you have a usb drive?01:37
Rhombixhi. i've been using ubuntu 12.04 for live boot sessions, i want to know is it safe to use the internet from it in light of heartbleed, etc? do i have to update anything on it?01:37
Yukendadis: I plan to use thi sfor games. All the games I play have Linux versions, which run muc hbetter on my laptop.01:37
Yukendadis: 1.9ghz Pentium 4 w/ iGPU01:37
k1l_Yuken, ask a friend or anyone to borrow a 2gb usb drive. then install ubuntu. fine01:37
ObrienDavenotdaniel, yes, use ISO to install directly to USB stick. i have several like that01:37
ObrienDavenotdaniel, the drive ordering MUST have USB stick before HDD01:38
dadisYuken, nice, well try this http://askubuntu.com/a/484456/37478401:38
Yukendadis: For example, Rimworld. 30fps then it overheats in Windows 7, smooth flying 60 in Ubuntu with occasionial drops (http://www.rimworldgame.com)01:39
notdaniel@ObrienDave: sorry, i didn't explain right. i can get the other machines to boot from the usb, but it's grub that then gets pissed and says it can't find the OS on hd0 or wherever01:39
ObrienDavenotdaniel, hmm, i have not run into that issue with my USB installs01:41
notdanielObrienDave: yeah, i didn't in the past either, but did this time. not sure, i'll just try again! maybe i installed the bootloader somewhere else by mistake or something01:43
Yukendadis: I could use a Virtual Machine to install all the programs I need for now, make it into a .iso (there is a way to do that iirc, right?) and boot from that.01:43

aarobchi!04:18
aarobcIs there a way I can run a graphical application using gksudo but not have the application run as the root user? Essentially the same as if I were to run it by typing `sudo gtkterm` in a terminal04:19
trismkanti: looks to be in libqt5svg5-dev04:19
tswettaarobc: well, you can use the -u option to tell gksudo which user you want to run the application as.04:19
aarobctswett: I tried that, but then it seems to miss the fact that I want the application to run with root permissions.04:20
kantitrism04:20
aarobcI want to run with root permissions, but not as the root user.04:20
aarobcjust like using sudo would do.04:20
tony6912ciao04:21
tswettIf I remember correctly, running something with sudo *does* run it as the root user, but also tells it who is running sudo.04:21
tony6912!list04:22
ubottutony6912: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ».04:22
tswettaarobc: may I ask what you're trying to accomplish?04:23
aarobctswett: oh. well with gksudo I'm running into a problem where it doesn't read any of the configuration files for the application, because it's looking for them in /root rather than my home directory as would typically happen04:23
tswettAh.04:23
mikhael_k33hlI'm planning to have a server with two NICs, public and private. How do I go about configuring the gateway for both?04:23
aarobctswett: just add a menu launcher to unity launcher to launch gtkrem because opening a shell and typing `sudo gtkterm` was getting tiresome.04:24
aarobcand sure, I could just deal with it running as root, but then it also doesn't have any of my pretty themes applied, and I like my pretty linux :D04:25
zykotick9aarobc: YMMV, but i personally think launching a terminal as root (ie. with sudo) is a bad idea.  (ie. i think you're doin' it wrong... but again YMMV).  sidenote, isn't gksudo somehow deprecated (/me doesn't know the details)?04:26
tswettIs gtkterm the application you're trying to run?04:26
tswettIf so, I think you could use the --config option to tell it which configuration file to use.04:27
aarobczykotick9: gtkterm for serial terminal, unless you can suggest something better.04:28
tswettI don't really understand the difference betweek sudo and gksudo myself.04:28
aarobczykotick9: what are the alternatives?04:28
aarobczykotick9: and I have to run it as root because it complains if I don't. Apparently doesn't have access to usb-serial devices if you don't.04:29
zykotick9aarobc: there are many... _really_ depends what you want to do.  but launching a terminal as root is in poor *nix-form IMO... again YMMV!04:29
zykotick9arlen: "sudo -i" perhaps?04:29
tswettaarobc: ah, I think I might have found something.04:30
zykotick9aarobc: tab fail, see msg to arle-n above.04:31
aarobczykotick9: has to be launched from unity icon, so you can't just use plain old sudo04:31
tswettPerhaps the command you want is this: gksudo env HOME=/your/home/directory yourgraphicalapplication04:32
aarobctswett: you give me hope04:32
tswettThat will tell the application that the home directory it should use is your home directory, not root's.04:32
zykotick9aarobc: sorry, i got nothin' to suggest for that.  good luck!04:32
=== RudeViper is now known as RudeViper|ZZZzzz
tswettApparently gksudo automatically changes the HOME environment variable to root's home directory. That env command will change it back04:33
aarobctswett: you are the man!04:33
aarobctswett: much thanks04:34
tswettNo prob.04:34

lotuspsychjexS1mple: and why you want to hide those? to make it cleaner?08:40
xS1mplelotuspsychje: and yes, to make it cleaner08:40
lotuspsychjexS1mple: i think those files are even safe to delete, but if you rename it .desktop.ini it will hide on ubuntu08:41
xS1mplelotuspsychje: they are safe to remove, but windows will keep creating them based on my folder view preferences08:42
xS1mplehence, the hide without rename/delete08:42
lotuspsychjexS1mple: and ubuntu will keep showing the files in nautilus because they exist08:43
xS1mplelotuspsychje: yep, so there's no manual filter I can apply either through config or gui settings?08:43

silverdrakeit keeps both speakers and headphones working for all output settings09:16
silverdrakebut muted the surround channels09:16
james__Thanks, lotus, but I knew that much.  As I was saying, that didn't help, and the bug is quite persistant.09:16
silverdrakealthough they are disabled in speaker config in sound settings09:16
james__I basically can't go into suspend at all.09:16
jjavaholichttp://pastebin.com/ygSZHF1X I suspect libva but don't know how to test it09:17
silverdrakeso this is the git of it : sound output selection only affects surround channels even if they are disabled instead of muting speakers or headphones09:17
silverdrakei can make manual modifications using volume change in alsamixer but this is an effort i'd rather not make everytime i switch from speakers to headphones and back09:19
james__...okay, the NickServ won't stop kicking me.09:19
silverdrakecan i configure sound output settings to correctly mute the channels i need?09:19
laskosilverdrake: I'm not expert on sound so I couldn't help you very much but I might be able to help in some way.09:23
james__Hi lasko.09:23
silverdrakelike specify which sound channels are associated with rear panel speakers and which with front panel headphones ? (i want to keep both plugged in and just change output from one to the other)09:23

james__I'm having a graphical distortion upon coming out of suspend mode in 14.10, default ubuntu.  The screen is very distorted and I don't even know any workarounds, being a new user, so the two or three times it's happened now, I've just had to reboot.09:25
james__Would love at minimum to know an effective workaround, if not a way to make it stop going haywire.09:25
silverdrakeyes , by lowering volume in alsa on the headphones i can get sound only in speakers and lowering volume in speakers to get sound only in headphones09:25
lyze237lotuspsychje, ubuntu looks good now having a problem with installing windows after arch/ ubuntu ;)09:26
Sacred-Shadowslotuspsychje, sorry mate but how do i remove the ppa from my sources list? with sudo ppa-purge? im trying that and updating but its not working yet, to confirm; i should be in /var/cache/apt/archives where the file is and sudo ppa-purge from there?09:26
lotuspsychjejames__: did you test with 14.0409:26
laskosilverdrake: But you can't get those same settings in the ubuntu sound applet?09:26

lyze237I have a problem with my grub setup. however i am using arch linux - but im banned in the arch linux channel for idk what reason :(. i installed windows after arch and now grub is kinda messed up09:26

lotuspsychjelyze237: did you do your ssd firmware yet09:26
lyze237lotuspsychje, yes i did ;)09:26
james__lotuspsychje:  I had 14.04 formerly, actually, and the bug was the same.09:26
silverdrakelike selecting speakers i get sound in both speakers and headphones09:27
james__I did an upgrade to 14.10 from 0409:27
silverdrakeselecting headphones is the same : sound everywhere09:27

lotuspsychjelyze237: i would ubuntu single on your evo :p09:28
lyze237lotuspsychje, if ubuntu would have worked the way it should (getting a blackscreen when switching to tty and getting a lock screen boot whenever i try to unlock my os) then i would have used it for quite some time09:29

james__bye silver.  Wish I could help09:35
lotuspsychjelyze237: i mean on the offical website of your card, should mention optimus technology supported or not09:35
james__is anyone able to help me with either discovering the problem, or finding a workaround?09:35
lotuspsychjejames__: install 14.0409:36
james__lotus, why do you say that?09:36
james__I had 14.04 and the same thing happened.09:36
james__Also, what's wrong with 14.10?09:36
lotuspsychjejames__: did you check your logs for errors?09:37
james__I mean, simply not using suspend would be less inconvenient than a complete O.S. reinstall09:37
james__I didn't... brand new linux user.  Not sure where/how to do that.09:37
james__What should I do?09:37
lotuspsychjejames__: check your syslog and dmesg logs09:37
lyze237lotuspsychje, well if i would detailed information about the graphics card then i could look on the official website09:37
lotuspsychjejames__: you can also check in realtime: tail -f /var/log/syslog and tail -f /var/log/dmesg then play around with your suspend09:38
james__"Is there anyone here who can advise a new "09:38
james__I meant to paste:  "syslog:  command not found"09:38
james__I tried tail -f... and got a spooling log with a whole bunch of stuff in it.09:40
james__When I go into suspend, I can't do anything...the graphical distortion is severe, and I don't know any workarounds.09:40

Sacred-Shadowscan anyone tell me how to delete a ppa file i know it starts with sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> and the file that is giving me trouble is /var/cache/apt/archives/wireshark_1.99.4+git20150306194848~8a945181-0ubuntu1~trusty1~ppa0_amd64.deb but i dont know how to combine them PLEASE HELP ive been at this for four hours and am at my wits end :(09:51
Ben64you don't combine them! you need the ppa name, nothing at all to do with that filename, as i've told you countless times09:51
Ben64use the software sources as you were told hours ago09:51
k1l_Sacred-Shadows: you use ppa-purge which will remove the ppa and the packages from that ppa.09:52
Sacred-Shadowsya and as i keep replying to you i did and the only ones are noobslab/themes, docky and dreibh09:53
k1l_how did you install that package?09:54

DorfenHey Guys! :) I just got an extra ssd disk, my system is installed on as is. On Windows i would maybe use this disk to install specific applications on for faster performance, how would i achieve this in ubuntu?10:00
Dorfenclarification i already have an ssd my system is installed on, i now have an extra! :)10:00
azizLIGHTany recommendations for a screen recordoing software?10:00
ikoniaDorfen: you really wouldn't10:00
Sacred-Shadowsk1l_, http://pastebin.com/xRF2eVEb10:00
ikoniaDorfen: ubuntu splits the binaries and the libraries and configs into different file systems10:01
ikoniaDorfen: so your best bet would be to put / on the ssd10:01
Dorfenwell i already have one ssd on the / i now have a second one i would like to put into use, this is not doable_10:01
ikoniaDorfen: so if you already have / on an SSD, why would the second ssd make it any faster ?10:02
DorfenI have more space on ssd disks! :) Yes, i could buy 1 big one, but now i have 2! So this is what i have to work with! :)10:03
ikoniaDorfen: that wasn't your statement10:03
ikoniaDorfen: your statement was to make it faster10:03
=== tatie is now known as gregor3000nadrug
DorfenNo it was not?10:03
k1l_Sacred-Shadows: it whos several issues there. 1) you are logged in as root which is not common on ubuntu 2) if you want to remove that ppa why dont you use the ppa-purge now?10:03
DorfenI asked if i could choose to install applciations on it like i would in windows for those specific applications to load faster? I have 3 other rpm disks too for storage.10:04
Sacred-Shadowsofcourse only my problem is i dont know how to phrase the argument k1l_10:04
ikoniaDorfen: quote "On Windows i would maybe use this disk to install specific applications on for faster performance, how would i achieve this in ubuntu?"10:04
lyze237back ;)10:04
RDX4OODorfen, u can use your 2 ssd's in Raid 0 but that's gonna be useless cause, the normaly writespeed from an ssd is like 500 Mbit's and that's fast enough ;)10:04
ikoniaDorfen: bottom line - is no10:04
DorfenWhat i would do on windows would be have c and d drives, on installation of an app i would choose to place it on an ssd if i wanted it to load fast. I wanted something similar in ubuntu.10:05
ikoniaDorfen: doesn't work like that on ubuntu10:06
DorfenSo when my / gets full i just cant install anymore apps? That is really stupid!10:06
ikoniaDorfen: no, it's not stupid10:06
ikoniaDorfen: it's about managing space correctly10:06
ikoniaDorfen: eg: move your home partition onto the second disk for example, to remove personal data from your / file system10:07
=== timothy is now known as Guest86627
DorfenNo not in a one disk world, but on a desktop computer with multiple disks, yes its kinda stupid.10:07
ikoniaDorfen: - as an easy example10:07
ikoniaDorfen: no, it's not "kind of stupid"10:07
Dorfenthat would just reverse my issue?10:07
DorfenThen my current ssd would be obsolete.10:07
ikoniaDorfen: how would that reverse your issue ?10:07
k1l_Sacred-Shadows: ppa-purge ppa:dreibh/ppa10:07
lyze237Dorfen: moving your /home directory obto a different partition will move every private file (music...) to a different partition but the applications and os will still be on your ssd10:08
Dorfenthis is my setup: i have one 240 gb ssd mounted on / everything ubuntu installed on is on this disk.10:08
DorfenI now have an extra ssd, i would like to use that too.10:09
ikoniaDorfen: why ?10:09
ikoniaDorfen: what is the problem you are actually trying to solve10:09
RDX4OO240 GB just for / is so many place :D10:09
lyze237totally :) except you are installing steam on your / partition10:10
Sacred-Shadowsk1l_ omg you.. are a life saver like.. really dude THANK-YOU10:10
Sacred-Shadowsso now would it probobley work to download wireshark and have it work? k1l_10:10
DorfenAS i said. On windows i would have used theese drives as c and d, on theese drives all there would be is operating systems, and applications nothing else! All my files and shit is on rpm disks, this setup is what i aim for or something similar. I thougth about home partition on a seperate disk, but still doesnt solve the disk size problem entirely cause at some point my ssd is gonna get full.10:11
ikoniaDorfen: forget windows10:11
MrSassyPantsSo ok, I'm using the wireless share NetworkManager thing to share the wired connection. But there's an odditiy which I have observed before, clients in the wireless seem to have "internets", but trying to open youtube videos and some other applications doesn't work.10:11
ikoniaDorfen: and there is no need to swear10:11
=== pinion is now known as Guest93356
ikoniaDorfen: if you move /home onto your second SSD you will have no problems10:11
ikoniaDorfen: that way you have 240GB for your system and applications (you will NEVER fill that) and all your home / personal data is on the second SSD10:12
ikoniaallowing you to manage your space10:12
DorfenThen i would store home folder files on my second ssd, this is not what im after.10:13
lyze237Dorfen: Well there are no big applications under linux which will fill your 240! gb ssd. so mounting a seperate disk to /home works perfectly. those 240 gb wont get full in a  lifetime. im using my os since 2 yeahrs and i still have 30 gb from a 50gb partition left.10:13
ikoniaDorfen: what you are after does not work in the linux work10:13
k1l_Sacred-Shadows: you dont need a ppa to install wireshark, yes10:13
ikoniaDorfen: hence forget how windows does it10:13
DorfenWell, i have wine, i have VM's running on the ssd etc, so yes they are getting full! :)10:13
lyze237then move those to the other os?10:14
ikoniaDorfen: move the vm's to the home partition then10:14
lyze237* partition not os10:14
Sacred-Shadowsdarn i just got disconnected did u reply? k1l_10:14
ikoniaDorfen: they are your VM's so should either be in system space (on a seperate disk) or in your home directory10:14
DorfenWell still having steam, blizzard app, my dev apps etc is filling up my ssd rather nice! my /home is like 20 mb, that would solve nothing.10:15
ikoniaDorfen: sorry- thats just not correct10:15
RDX4OODorfen, u have an PM from me10:15
ikoniaDorfen: your applications are not filling up your home disk to the tune of 240GB10:15

lyze237so btw is there a way to create a smaller partition from a partiton which is in a ext4 file format? (with no data loss?)10:17
ikoniaRDX4OO: please help in the channel - not in pm10:17
ikoniaDorfen: lets work through the real questions and please be honest with the answers,10:18
ikoniaDorfen: do you actually KNOW what is taking up your space10:18
lyze237Dorfen: yes but they are stored in /home. move /home to a different disk then everything works perfectly10:18
DorfenAt the moment it's not an issue i can just see it being an issue at some point! :)10:19
DorfenBut yes i have a steam install on around 78 gig10:19
lyze237oh and forget my question thought i was in the #windows channel10:19
ikoniaDorfen: basically you can carve up any additional disks you want and mount them anywhere you want to offset the space problems10:19
RDX4OOof course they do but, u can install your steam games on another partition like, in a differenet Folder in /home maybe. So if u keep moving /home to an another partition and install the steam games into the new /home Folder, your problem will be solved i guess :)10:20
ikoniaDorfen: however this would normally not be needed with a bit of basic awareness of what you're using and where they are stored, and where they can be stored10:20
MrSassyPantsSo yeah, why do most things work over a shared wireless connection (set up with NetworkManager) but Youtube Videos and app store updates don't?10:20

ikoniaDorfen: what do you actually want then ? as you keep asking how to move applications10:26
DorfenYes I am aware of you saying that, and as I still say that has nothing to do with where steam install its stuff.10:26

Dorfenokay first of, I ran windows 6 months back. On that setup i had C drive on one ssd, and D drive for steam, blizzard,visual studio and other heavy stuff I wanted to load fast.

azizLIGHTikonia: i meant that, when i login after being locked out by screensaver, i dont want to put in anymore passwords, including sudo on a prompt10:30
DorfenNow i want to format my old D drive (ssd disk 2), and put that to use in ubuntu in a similar way.10:30
ikoniaazizLIGHT: change the sudo rules to "NOPASSWD"10:30
ikoniaazizLIGHT: there are docs on the ubuntu wiki on how to10:30
ikoniaDorfen: "you can't do that"10:30
ikoniaDorfen: you can use your disks correctly though10:31
DorfenI am now aware this is not doable, so this was just to clarify my question,  as Ikonia asked for it!10:31
DorfenAnd how would that be_10:31
ikoniaDorfen: I as I explained earlier10:31
Dorfenmounting the ssd uner /home?10:31

RDX4OOpc-moon_, it's gonna be more easy for u now :)10:50
ikoniathere is no need for youtube videos10:50
neutralizer'sudo service minidlna start' says OK but does not start it where executing 'minidlnad' starts the server. what could be wrong?10:50
ikoniathe official doc walks you thorugh it10:50
RDX4OOikonia, maybe not for us ;)10:50
ikoniaRDX4OO: maybe wait for someone to ask before ramming untrusted 3rd part youtube videos at people10:51
pc-moon_i know how i can install or setup on anycomputer but this computer is windows and make like no usb for os i think may thats just support windows but in hp they wrote its supported may i miss something10:52
ikoniapc-moon_: whats the actual problem ?10:52
RDX4OOikonia, blame on me i am so sry10:52
cfhowlettpc-moon_, 1.  get ubuntu.  2. make ubuntu USB.  3. boot ubuntu from USB.  4.  install ubuntu10:52
ikoniaRDX4OO: no need for sorry10:53
pc-moon_i cant open usb boot10:53
pc-moon_i didnt saw in boot menu10:53
ikoniadoes the motherboard support booting from usb ?10:53
RDX4OOpc-moon_, cause secure boot is activated :S10:53
pc-moon_no i change to disable10:54
pc-moon_my usb is created by unetbootin10:54
RDX4OOhmm, do u use the usb ports on the backside?10:54
cfhowlettpc-moon_, if you disable USB ... you cannot boot USB10:55
pc-moon_ok most i enable it10:55
jjavaholichow can I test my usb individually?10:55
bekksjjavaholic: Test for what?10:55
RDX4OOcfhowlett, he disable the secure boot and not USB :)10:56
RDX4OOall Windows 8 PC's are in  a Secure Boot or Fast Boot, so u can't boot from an external Medium like an USB Drive10:57
bekksRDX4OO: Thats not true.10:57
cfhowlettRDX4OO, FALSE10:57
pc-moon_ok im trying to disable fastboot and secure boot10:57
RDX4OObekks, so give me the right answer pls :)10:58
=== krokus is now known as Guest91503
RDX4OOpc-moon_, just follow these steps :) http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2014/05/install-ubuntu-1404-alongside-windows.html11:00
RDX4OO 4. Turn off fast boot. To be able to boot to your Ubuntu USB drive you will need to turn off the fast boot option.11:00
k1l_!dualboot | pc-moon_ go with the official howto11:01

bekksRDX4OO: Just because that 3rd party howto mentions it, it doesnt mean that every Windows 8 is using secureboot nor does it mean thta Windows 8 has enabled fastboot by default.11:01
RDX4OOpc-moon_, keep Secure Boot on enable but u have to Fast Boot disable11:02
ikoniaRDX4OO: stop talking11:02
k1l_pc-moon_: on some pcs you need to press a key to boot from a usb or get a menu to select the boot order. so see your manual what to do on your machine11:02
ikoniaRDX4OO: if you don't know the answer - don't talk, don't push random links11:02
RDX4OOikonia, why should i ? it's a free irc channel ;) you don't have the force to put my mouth closed :)11:03
ikoniaRDX4OO: I do if you're giving bad information11:03
ikoniaRDX4OO: and as you don't appear to know the answer and you're just pushing things without knowing if/how they work, it seems bad, so please don't11:04
cfhowlett!behelpful | RDX4OO a little courtesy and discretion goes a long way ...11:05
ubottuRDX4OO a little courtesy and discretion goes a long way ...: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes.11:05
=== nikolov_ is now known as Dreaman
RDX4OOikonia, the reason why he cant boot from an external usb drive was the fast boot option or not? so what did wrong?11:06
ikoniaRDX4OO: that contradics your earlier advice11:06

ikoniaboot it in another machine ?11:10
b100swhy my android cant be plugged in as usb storage to ubuntu 14.04?11:10
lyzeb100s, i guess thats because it uses the mtp protocoll which is not supported11:12
lyze* or lets say better: not supported by default11:12
k1l_ubunut supports mtp by default, iirc11:13
lyzedoes it? well thats something new for me sorry for the wrong information ;)11:13
b100show can i check and fix it?11:13
RDX4OOikonia, so go on pls and help pc-moon_ :)11:13
k1l_lyze: gvfs and nautilus should be able to mount mtp11:13
Romildo_Vitorinopc-moon_ The boot disk creator of ubuntu 14.14 with this bug, suggest using unetbootin11:14
k1l_b100s: what device is it=11:14

b100si have philips w73211:14
b100swith windows - ok11:14
b100sbut ubuntu cant see it11:14
k1l_b100s: are you sure mtp is enabled on the device itselv? can you pastebin "lsusb" and the part of "dmesg" after you plugged it in?11:16
b100si can be sure that MTPZ is disabled :) from message above11:17
b100suno momento11:17
k1l_that android seem to be a russian model. most of the posts talking about ubuntu and mtp i find are on russian. maybe they have a fix for that?11:19
b100sk1l_, lsusb http://paste.org.ru/?j7dots11:19
k1l_b100s: well, is it plugged in? as far as i see its not in lsusb11:21
b100syep, and after plug it in - i didn se any changes in dmesg11:21
b100stried 2 different cables11:21
k1l_so make sure the device itself got mtp or usb connection enabled11:22
b100sdevice works ok with windows, but in ubuntu ((( even i didnt asked for use device as USB-storage as usual was with windows11:24
b100sso, i have two different netboks and the same - 2 cables, 2 ports and two noteboks - checked11:24
b100sdmesg without any changes, may it be problem with device?11:24
k1l_yes11:25
lyzek1l_, should he be possible to try to connect the phone via the adb? to see if this works?11:25
b100swhat is adb?11:25
lyzeandroid debug bridge11:25
lyzethats a program for accessing your phone on the computer.11:25
k1l_lyze: yes. but if its not even showing up on lsusb that might not work too11:25
lyzethere is a command: adb devices which lets you see if the phone is properly connected to the adb and then you can access the content of the phone via adb shell11:26
lyzek1l_, yep thats the only problem we have here...11:26

k1l_Sagar: is it a vserver?11:29
Sagaryes a vps11:29
k1l_Sagar: you are using more ram than you got. so it kills the site11:29
bekkspc-moon_: No. I just said that extlinux has nothing to do with ext2. More likely, it appears to be a half-broken bootable usb device. Recreate it.11:29
varaindemiananybody had problem with SiS 771/671 Mirage 3 video driver on ubuntu?11:29

Sagar?11:31
bekksvaraindemian: And? :)11:31
varaindemianbut I don't know how to fix the graphic acceleration11:31
k1l_Sagar: see how much ram you have guaranteed. then see what you are using there. then see how you can limit the sites to ram access.11:32
bekksvaraindemian: That thing does not even have graphics acceleration at all.11:32
bekksvaraindemian: As I said, it is a horrible device.11:32
k1l_Sagar: the processes that run the sites.11:32
Sagari got 1GB RAM11:32
Sagari use opencart 2.0 how can i make the limit?11:32
varaindemianbekks: what command you use to type my nick?11:32
bekksvaraindemian: I typed "vara" and pressed the tabulator key.11:33
k1l_Sagar: see what base system opencart uses and if they offer a ram limitation there. its your task as a admin :/11:34
varaindemianbekks, thank you for your kind answers, but I feel horribly that I can't make linux working on my device :(11:34
bekksvaraindemian: You said you did make it work. But you are trying things which are impossible with that device - like HW acceleration.11:34
k1l_varaindemian: that card was horrible when it was a "new" card. not its old and horrible. sorry to say :/ sis never supported linux like others did.11:35
ubuntu2342343Hi11:37
lyzehi ubuntu2342343  :)11:37
ubuntu2342343What hapenned to "install alongside windows" option on the installer?11:37
lyzeubuntu2342343, nothing. should work normally11:38
ubuntu2342343I can either whipe entire drive and install or "something else"11:38
ubuntu2342343I don't understand "something else". I tried that and broke my pc trying to understand what partitions I should create, mount points etc, it was all too complicated.11:38
lyzewell its easy ;)11:38
ubuntu2342343So there is no alongside windows option anymore.11:39
varaindemianbekks, I didn't get the right resolution that my device supports. I have something similar to the right one11:39
lyzewell i can guide you through if you want ;)11:39
bekksvaraindemian: Thats the best you can get.11:39
arunanyone here tried http://gaminganywhere.org/ ??11:39
Ben64ubuntu2342343: there is that option if it is available11:40
ubuntu2342343Ben64, What do you mean?11:40
Ben64if its possible for the installer to do that, it shows up11:40
ubuntu2342343Yeah but I have a pc with 2 x hdd. 1 = 225gb ssd with Windows 7 on it and nothing else.11:40
ubuntu2342343It's totally clean11:40
lyzeefi?11:41
ubuntu2342343lyze, I think so yes how does that change things?11:41
ubuntu2342343Is it this new "secure boot" that screws things up?11:41
=== argali is now known as asper
lyzeubuntu2342343, perhapse. i have disabled it and it works for me. but if you want i can guide you through the "something else" settings11:42
ubuntu2342343lyze, Thanks, maybe. So if you have efi the alongside windows option is not there presumambly.11:44
ubuntu2342343I just found this I think it usually affects windows8 but in my case 7 as well: http://askubuntu.com/questions/302680/how-do-i-install-ubuntu-alongside-uefi-enabled-windows-811:45
lyzeubuntu2342343, yeah ok use that then i dont need to explain it to you :) however i would use one of your 2 hdd's as a /home mountpoint.11:46
ubuntu2342343Separate partition for home. You mean incase I have to upgrade later on or for some other reason?11:47
boris``hello, i've force installed php-zeroc-ice which depends on php packages. i have installed an alternate set of php packages from my vserver provider. but now apt-get upgrade won't proceed because of the dependency failure. is there a way to configure it to ignore dependencies for that package only?11:47
ubuntu2342343Honestly the amount of education you need just to get into Linux these days is getting crazy. Normal people are never going to experience Linux at all.11:47
Ben64ubuntu2342343: actually its much easier than it used to be11:47
ubuntu2342343bullshit!11:48
cfhowlettubuntu2342343, stop the profanity .... NOW11:48
Ben64that language is not necessary11:48
ubuntu2342343I used to be able to do it easily but now I have to study like crazy11:48
ntspubuntu2342343 with a fully automated installer, what else do you need?11:49
lyzeubuntu2342343, nah not difficult at all :) but here is the reason why you would use a different /home partition: 1. backup is easier. no need to reinstall something which is stored inside your /home partition. the other thing is that when you use for example a ssd as / partition then it gets sometimes quite full (with vms, steam and so on) so using a e.g. 1 TB hdd as /home solves this too11:49
ubuntu2342343You're just trolling11:49
lyzeand i dont see why the windows installer should be easier than the ubuntu one. heck the ubuntu installer is way easier then the windows one11:50
Ben64results in a usable system too11:50
ubuntu2342343For single boot both are easy11:50
lyzefor multiboot - yeah you can't use the windows installer for that11:50
lyzeactually you can but you need a linux live cd again to get the other one to work11:51
ntspIs there a way to disable the video powerdown on server(aka console), its getting annoying11:51
lyzethe other way around it works just fine11:51
ntsptried consoleblanking=0 as bootcommand still the same11:51
ubuntu2342343I really worry for the ordinary people in my area, the kind of people who are struggling to figure out ipads. There's no way they could figure out all this efi stuff.11:51
lyzeso thats efi not linux ;)11:52
lyzeefi just fcks with everyone11:52
lyzesorry for the f word QQ11:52
ubuntu2342343yeah so it's not linux but it's a barrier to linux11:52
k1l_ubuntu2342343: its windows that is limiting in here. if you compare you wan tto install a dualboot where you install windows afterwards you dont have choices to make at all. so lets stop ranting what doesnt work and see how to solve the issue11:52
lyzeyep11:52
k1l_ubuntu2342343: because the time you rant in here you could already be installing11:52
cfhowlettubuntu2342343,  and yet more and more people are adopting linux so your point is refuted by the evidence.  Please continue this discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic or stick to the channel topic here; technical support.11:53
ubuntu2342343cfhowlett, OK. I'm just being me, I'm not trying to cause any problems.11:54

wesley9946hi there, i got VGA and DVI on both screen and laptop, but only VGA is being detected, any solutions?12:09

freeroutebekks: you mean upgrading to a 3.16 kernel? That would mean limited support in comparison to the LTS kernel would it not?12:12
hioguys ubuntu is constantly broken for me, how do i prevent auto updating from ruining my nvidia drivers i installed from binary??12:12
k1l_hio: that is the disadvantage of using the binary blops from the website12:13
wesley9946hi there, i got VGA and DVI on both screen and laptop, but only VGA is being detected, any solutions? video card driver is i91512:13
wesley9946cuz i got intel 945GM video card inside12:13
hiok11_ it's not just a disadvantage, it effectively breaks my boot every week or so12:13
bekksfreeroute: I dont see any limitation there.12:13
hioall the built in drivers from ubuntu don't work, they don't enable resolution higher than 192012:14
freeroutebekks: also IIRC 3.16 kernel will also not work (Linux 3.16 kernels and earlier). So if I can speak to the kernel maintainers about putting the tsync feature in the LTS kernel by filing a bug report then I will. I just thought perhaps some maintainers were hanging around here as well.12:17
wesley9946hi there, i got VGA and DVI on both screen and laptop, but only VGA is being detected, any solutions? video card driver is i91512:18
freerouteI simply didn't know that filing bug reports were meant as a platform for engaging conversations and asking questions. (Also I couldn't derive that information from !bug)12:18
k1l_freeroute: please read the reddit thread you linked to the end and read what not big deal a patch like that is, and that its alread in old ubuntu kernels.12:18
Ben64freeroute: everyone says that 3.16 fixed it, so just upgrade to 3.16!!! you're making way too big of a deal of this12:18
k1l_freeroute: so we can now stop this talk in here unless you get your facts right.12:18

cfhowlettstudio_, that's ... an accomplishment:)  you could delete the .xfce4 hidden folders.  that'll reset everything xfce4 to default.  *everything*12:22

ChristerIn your experience, any preferred VPS hosting service? Im currently testing out Amazon EC2, which seems great, especially when i can use the free tier stuff to test things out and experiment. But im a bit afraid of the unpredictable cost that might come when signing up. any experiences? I have also looked at Digital Ocean, but without making a purchase, it seems a bit "silly?" to not be able to buy most disk space, without having to upgrade every12:32
Christerthing on the VPS as well.12:32

studio_cfhowlett, that didn't fixed the problem. xfce4-settings-manager is still not the default settings-manager. any other idea?12:37

daftykinsthis one looks the worst shape i've ever seen, in here15:55
ObrienDaveyea, seriously a bad situation, sure hope he has recent backups15:55
ObrienDavecan anyone help I-am-Groot with his window border issue?15:56
daftykinsrvang: there are some kernel boot parameter additions like "backlight=vendor" or something along those lines that can be added to make such situations work, have you tried googling for your laptop model + backlight to find any to try?15:56
rvangIs there a clean way to assign multimedia keys manually?15:56
I-am-GrootYea, Someone??15:56
I-am-GrootIts annoying15:57
clmclmhello. does kworker handle usb inputs like mouse, keyboard?15:57
rvangdaftykins: yep, i tried those, both backlight & os settings. Also the "intel driver fix"15:57
rvangI'd be okay be using a simple script to change my brightness.. I can change it by changing the settings in the class/backlight/intel dir15:57
daftykinsoh dear, you didn't install intel drivers from their site did you?15:58
rvangBut is there a clean way to attach such a script to the keys? without installing to much crap :P15:58
EriC^^rvang, xbindeys maybe15:58
rvangnope, I just did the clean  ubuntu install yesterday15:58
EriC^^*xbindkeys15:58
katanoIs a little bit out of topic but it's more a syntax question. I plan to run setxkbmap automaticaly. I taught about lighdm. Is it correct to do so : greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/setxkbmap fr  in usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/60-lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf?15:58
rvangAnd tried all fixes I could find related to ubuntu 14.04, intel drivers and asus zenbook in general15:59
katanoAnd Is is better to put setxkbmap in sr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/60-lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf or in /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc?15:59
rvangMy last hope is then someone here has had the same problems, or similair anyway15:59
rvangThanks EriC^^ I'll check it out15:59
EriC^^rvang, you might be able to use the keyboard shortcuts in settings > keyboard16:00
rvangI thought about that too EriC^^ , but sadly it doesnt recognize my fn keys16:00
EriC^^oh16:01
daftykinsso it things the function key is the same press as the Fn + function key?16:01
daftykins*thinks16:01
rvangUhh I dont get that question daftykins16:01
daftykinsnevermind then16:02
rvangWhen i press fn + f5 for example, it just doesnt "catch" it in the keyboard settings16:02
EriC^^rvang, does xev catch it?16:02
rvanggood point16:02
rvanglet me check16:02
rvangActually it doesn't16:03

Guest62819yes on same machine i tried showing until installation and then cancelled installation hoping that nothing would go wrong16:16
I-am-Grootcfhowlett: Are u referring to the intel Graphics installer??16:16

vltBluesKaj: Not quite. Their target is FAT32 which lacks a lot of properties to check and has a weird timestamp rounding. My source is NTFS with features not supported by linux, afaik.17:01
jasonwhitedaftykins : I trying to hard code the IPs in /etc/hosts first and see what is going to happen and will try openDNS. Thanks for your idea.17:02
daftykinsJef91: is that from a PPA?17:02
Jef91daftykins, I compiled Enlightenment from source. My desktop of choice is unrelated to the printer tool17:03
hchtThis error how to solve?17:03
hchtW: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntukylin.com:10006 trusty Release: because there is no public key signature cannot be verified, the following: NO_PUBKEY D259B7555E1D3C5817:03
daftykinsJef91: well, had you been using a supported one i could've said "ah hey check you have all the packages by installing blah blah" but now i can't :)17:04
Jef91daftykins, this tool is desktop independent?17:05
Jef91It didn't have any Gnome dependencies listed or unity ect.17:05
Jef91even though it has gnome in the name.17:05
ObrienDavehcht, sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys D259B7555E1D3C5817:05
daftykinsfair enough.17:05
Jef91Are using Ubuntu minimal installs not supported daftykins ?17:05
daftykinsJef91: that's not what i'm saying at all17:05
ntspAnyone knows any gif programs (preferrably in the repos)17:06
Jef91daftykins, just switched to unity and the system doesn't find the printer there either17:06
Jef91So... Not Enlightenment related.17:06
BluesKajwell, vlt , i use  a NTFS outboard HDD for media files, but I just copy them over from the source17:06
Jef91Same result17:06
daftykinswell that depends how you installed unity, too :D17:06
daftykinsbut anyway, obviously this is out of my depth so i throw my hands up now17:06
vltBluesKaj: I see. I need this more like a daily backup solution for a virtual machine on NTFS without having to clone the whole file system every night.17:08

kastanmy wireless driver stopped working all of a sudden any ideas on how to fix at the moment im connected to the router via Ethernet cable17:47
ObrienDavesarahLove, my pleasure17:47
larebeckbekks, wild guess at this point17:48
gvt100okay.. im new to emacs.. im installing python-django.el and such, having found it on django-project's emacs page17:48
gvt100im wondering about web-mode and django-mode..17:48
bekkslarebeck: Well, my wild guess (searching on google for 1 minute) revealed that a newer CUPS wont help, but instead you need the pretty old drivers from Lexmark.17:48
larebeckmaybe I asked google the wrong question on that one bekks17:49
larebeckbekks,  I tried the ones from lexmark site and it doesn't seem to work17:49

larebeck777? 655J?17:55
xavier_helo17:55
bekkslarebeck: Take a look at the link, the permissions are stated there.17:55
larebeckbekks, I have done those and looked back at the ls... my perms still show the same17:56
bekkslarebeck: you have done "those"?17:56
larebeckbekks, http://www.pasteall.org/5713317:57
gvt100NegativeFlare, if your are still here.. as i said, new to emacs.. im at https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Emacs.. and have python-django.el installed and django-mode and django-html-mode.. im wondering if anything else would be useful.. do you use nXhtml/django-html=mumamo-mode and or web-mode?17:57
bekkslarebeck: you changed ownerships, not permissions. And you wildly just shot at ownerships, using chown -rR17:58
larebeckI did what that page said17:59
bekkslarebeck: And looking into two different directories will show different results.17:59
bekkslarebeck: you did follow the post stating "I have a problem" - but you did not follow the answer.18:00
larebeckbekks, those are the same directory18:02
bekkslarebeck: So read the answer in that post carefully and see the fixed permissions and ownerships there.18:02
larebeckdid you not see the code I showed you bekk18:03
kastanthank you guys for all you help i found the answer at askubuntu.com18:04
bekkslarebeck: I did, but you did not notice the different permissions/owenships between the link and the paste of your system.18:06
larebecki pasted what was on the page, if it was wrong, I don't know enough to fix it18:07
bekkslarebeck: Just compare your ls -lha and the ls -lha from the link. You'll see the different ownerships.18:08

dasjoebekks: I doubt he's coding in numerical machine code, then promptly forgetting how to run this stuff18:14
Stary2001haha18:14
Stary2001UbuntuNoob: first you need a boot sector, i assume you already have something that loads your code18:14
UbuntuNoobwell it's better to use MS-DOS than ubuntu for experimenting with assembly, i'd think18:14
bekksUbuntuNoob: That assumption is horribly wrong :)18:15
UbuntuNoob7C 05 FF 20 FB18:15
UbuntuNoobit's supposed to make the lower right corner of your screen flash if you run it18:15

Stary2001well uh18:16

gvt100hey _troll in my limited eperience you either want to code a bootstrap program to run your code without an os, or use something simple like dos.. but that is just the short answer18:32
gvt100_troll unless you actually plan on coding in assmebly for a specific version of linux or something your code wont necessarily be portable.. at that point, if you've decided you want more functionality or a different os that dos, maybe look into osdevelopment.. and some of the work already started for you to use..18:34
groot5man, just got chastised by my wife for considering putting money toward a system that deliberately obfuscates filetypes. I have been suitably chastened. Sorry guys for raising it, this guy is still a dedicated Linux user18:35
gvt100_troll: it would be simplest to start with dos coding, then start with a boot loader, then get into os dev.. if you want, you could do most, or im assuming all, of this within some sort of virtualware..18:35

Guest49226I have an issue I can't seem to figure out. Im trying to duplicate every file in a directory while apending a character to the name. The character does not matter so lets say it is 1. I want to copy every file in a directory so lets say foo.ext copys to foo1.ext and bar.ext copys to bar1.ext. Is there a fesable way to do this from command line? I know this is a bit more straight linux related19:44
Guest49226but ubuntu is what I use so I guess it applies. TLDR I want to duplicate all files in a directory and add any random character to the duplicates filename so both files exists in the same directory.19:44
gvt100im experiencing random crashes.. GRUB lists no memory test/memtest86+ to run.. im trying to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSystemCrash as a start to figure out why my system is crashing..19:45
=== bazhang_ is now known as bazhang
gvt100my crash does not lock the system, but restarts it with no warning.. the most warning i get is if im listening to music it start skipping for a second or so before it restarts.. otherwise it just restarts19:48
gvt100guest49226 im guessing an easy way to do that would be with a shell script..19:49
qu4nt1n!s interstellar19:49
jhutchinsGuest49226: what might be more practical is to copy the files, then use rename to batch rename them.19:51
htqpGuest49226: for i in * ; do cp "$i" "$i.randomcharacters" ; done19:51
htqpbut you may want to state the real goal, as I see no use for copying to the same directry19:52
jhutchinsGuest49226: If this is some kind of backup you could compress them into an archive and not have to worry about the name.19:52
jhutchinshtqp: Yeah, that would work.19:52
EriC^^for i in * .*; do cp "$i" .. to copy hidden files too19:54
stazichhi, is anyone using Amazon Instant in Chrome or Chromium here?19:58
Guest49226htqp the real goal is to literally have 2 copys of the same file in the same directory19:58
jhutchinsGuest49226: Ah, same directory.19:58
htqpWHY do you want 2 copies in the same dir?19:58
htqpthere may be more efficient or simpler alternatives if you state us the use case19:59
Guest49226long story short it is for an m3u file. I have a ton of files and when it is on shuffle I want certian directories files to show up more. I have unlimited space so i want to copy those files so there are 2 instances of the same thing20:00
=== _d4rklit3 is now known as d4rkhome
Guest49226that way that file shows up more often in the m3u when shuffled20:00
bekksGuest49226: USe symlinks.20:00
ima3ki have a problem with my netbook i cant set 1366x768 and i have black bar on the right becouse only resolution i can set is 1280x80020:00
=== d4rkhome is now known as _d4rklit3
ima3ksomeone can tell me what can i do ?20:01
=== _d4rklit3 is now known as d4rkhome
htqpfor i in * ; do ln "$i" "$i.randomcharacters" ; done20:01
htqpGuest49226: ^^^^ this will make files appear more often but way faster, without taking time to copy the real contents (and occupying negligible space)20:01
ima3kand its laptop which have default 1366x76820:02
htqpnote that ths will link the files - any alterations to the link file will alter the original also20:02
htqpso it's not a copy but a link20:02
Guest49226htqp cool thats even better, the files will never be modified though20:02
divyanshHi all, #ubuntu-programming is dead. Anyone interested in discussing a C++ container idea?20:02
Guest49226only played20:02
htqpand I would ask in channel #vlc (or your favorite player) whether there's an option to mark files as "favorite" to show more often without this sort of hacks..20:03
htqpmaybe worth a wishlist report on launchpad.net20:04
Guest49226htqp its a m3u that will be used across multiple oses and devices so i wont be able to solve it software side unfortunately20:04
htqpor edit the m3u (plain text file) to just copy the lines for the files in question20:06
htqpidk whether m3u file format allows for duplicate entries (or whether the sw will treat duplicate entries as one) but may be worth a check20:06
Guest49226htqp the m3u will change dailiy (random shuffle automaticaly), but the content for that won't, so its best to just duplicate the file or link as you suggested20:07
htqpbeks suggested so thank him/her :P20:07

Guest49226so to be sure running "for i in * ; do ln "$i" "$i._1" ; done" from /foo/bar/foo.ext would create a link named "/foo/bar/foo_1.ext" to "/foo/bar/foo.ext"20:09

odsent_can i have windows 8, ubuntu, and MS-DOS all on the same computer in 3 partitions?20:11
Guest49226htqp yes i will be working in the directory in question only20:11
htqpGuest49226: changing the filename in the middle requires more advanced syntax, I'm not going to take time with that, feel free to ask in channel #bash20:12
odsent_i used partition editor to make an unused fat32 partition for MS-DOS20:12
odsent_is that possible20:13
LunaticKnight80> You need to change the .ogg sound20:13
htqpbut the extension is irrelevant to Linux, Linux only checks the contents in the file, so an audio file can have any extension or even no ext at all20:13
Knight80Lunatic What is the name of that .ogg file?20:13

donairaQUIT20:13
donairahelp20:13
Knight80Lunatic Thank you very much20:14
Guest49226htqp thanks for you help man im already in the right direction. lets say I just append to the file extension. can i then just batch rename the files created later while keeping the link to the origional file?20:14
LunaticKnight80> There is a file named desktop-login.ogg20:14
Knight80Lunatic Yes20:14
LunaticKnight80> Just replace this one by your file, it should do the trick20:15
htqpGuest49226: if you mean "does the link break if I rename the file", answer is no. Otherwise I don't know20:15
Knight80Lunatic What I actually want to do is to make the linux terminal to play a sound whenever there's activity.20:15
LunaticKnight80> You mean like following a log and play a sound whgen something happens?20:16
Guest49226htqp yes that is what i was asking, but does the link break if either file name is modified?20:16
Knight80Lunatic Yes, that's right.20:16
htqpGuest49226: no, this is "hard link" which links the file not the path (you can rename or move to another directory in same partition, link will not break)20:17
LunaticKnight80> Oh god sorry I don't know how too do that, but I think you can do it with a parameter or something like this, ask the others20:17
Guest49226htqp cool I think my problem is solved then, i will test it out. Thank you so much!20:18
htqpGuest49226: for the sake of argument, if hypotetically you used symbolic links (parameter -s to ln) then it would rather link to the filename, which would mean "link would break by renaming original file"20:18
htqpGuest49226: you're welcome20:18
Knight80Lunatic Thanks anyway :)20:18

htqpLunatic: ^^^^20:23
htqpGuest49226: I believe so, too20:23
Guest49226dang is there just no way to copy all files while not overwriting the origional, somethin glike how windows does?20:24
htqpsure, use cp instead of ln in the command line. This will make a regular copy not a link20:25

htqpAlternatively, a third option: for i in * ; do echo cp "$i" "$i._1" ; cp "$i" "$i._1" ; done20:42

daftykins1) Is subnet A aware that subnet B is available via server? 2) Is subnet B aware subnet A...? 3) Is IP forwarding enabled on the server? (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward = 1)21:20
Gnonthgolthere is a default route, if I configure another then the first one brakes, only one nic can get access to the internet at a time21:20
Gnonthgolip forwarding is not enabled on the server in question, only on the gateways21:21
daftykinsGnonthgol: then there's problem #1, it's not going to forward traffic from one to the other with it off.21:21
Gnonthgolbut I want it to send the traffic from ip A to subnet B through nic A to gw A21:22
OerHeksit is broken, en now you cannot ping it?21:23
Gnonthgolthere should be no traffic being routed through the server21:23
daftykinsGnonthgol: so set it up accordingly. but this is obviously a networking query and nothing to do with ubuntu now :) it's impossible to follow you without a diagram labelled with the actual subnets in question, pop over to ##networking and ask again with a diagram in hand21:24

Gnonthgoldaftykins: the network is just fine, the problem is that ubuntu responds to requests from subnet A to its ip in subnet B with its ip in subnet A thus violating the networking axioms21:28
daftykinsGnonthgol: diagram or can't help, sorry.21:28
lucidocan you drive multiple displays with multiple vga cards21:31
daftykinsyou can drive multiple with single cards these days21:31
lucidodaftykins, I"m doing 4 displays21:31
daftykinsso yes, but you'll probably find all kinds of quirky behaviour from someone i know who's used 4+ displays for a few years21:32
daftykinsno idea how it behaves these days21:32

derbieHi! I am new to the linux world. I've recently decided to learn nodejs and for this purpose i have access to a server running ubuntu and has nodejs and npm installed by default. How and where should i place my nodejs hello world web server ?21:34
daftykinslucido: i suppose i do know myself, but i was referring to someone else :)21:34
derbiefile*21:35
bpromptderbie:     there's a #nodejs  channel btw21:35
derbieSorry i thought it might be more related to ubuntu since i am a total newbie :)21:36
Gnonthgolderbie: as far as I know of nodejs you can put it anywhere you like (I prefer under ~/project/[whatever]/21:36
derbieThank you Gnonthgol21:37
m1dnight_Guys, I have an alias in my ~/.zshrc file. I'm wondering if that alias can be executed from crontab?21:38
m1dnight_I have an alias "chat" which is defined as `alias chat='tmux attach -dt weechat || tmux new -s weechat \; new-window weechat'`21:38
m1dnight_I'm guessing crontab for my own user won't work because the zshrc file isn't loaded, or the crontab is not executed within the zsh shell?21:39
m1dnight_in all fairness, I haven't tried yet21:39
derbie.... can you transfer files with putty? :D21:39
m1dnight_you can use an other exe for that21:39
derbieOkay21:39
m1dnight_pscp.exe it's called21:40
daftykinsderbie: or WinSCP21:40
daftykins(a GUI program)21:40
derbiedaftykins: was the top result on google :)21:40
Gnonthgolm1dnight_: you can get crond to run "zsh -c chat" to run the command "chat" under zsh21:40
m1dnight_oh21:40
m1dnight_ill try it on my laptop first, I was thinking to just put the alias definition in my crontab21:41
Gnonthgolthat is also a possibility, but then you have to maintain the alias two places21:41
m1dnight_indeed :)21:42
m1dnight_ill give it a shot!21:42
m1dnight_thanks Gnonthgol !21:42
Gnonthgolnp21:42
derbieSo basically putty is equivalent of window's command prompt21:49
derbieI've read that you use cd folder_name to navigate, i'm getting No such file or directory21:49
larebeckwell bekks we just went out and bought a newer HP Officejet 4630, I have the Officejet 5740 and it works with Ubuntu 14.0421:50
larebeckhowever this HP Officejet 4630 on this Toshiba laptop is not installing21:50
larebeckI've tried to reinstall CUPS(the defaults) and the HPLIP multipule times and in different orders and I can't get it to print21:51
daftykinsderbie: nope, PuTTY allows a remote connection to a Linux host that emulates a terminal. cmd's equivalent would be say, gnome-terminal inside GUI Ubuntu21:51
k1lderbie: on ubuntu? you dont use putty. you just use the terminal21:51
Gnonthgolderbie: putty is an ssh client for windows, ssh is the way to get a command line to a linux machine (like telnet only secure)21:51
derbiek1l: it's not on my machine21:52
k1lok, so you use putty on a windows box to connect to a ubuntu box over ssh?21:52
derbieI think so :D21:52
derbiesince it's responding to node --version i was expecting to use it to launch the node hello world app21:53
k1lok. keep in mind that ubuntu uses case sensitivity. but you can use tab-completion to let the shell to the hard work of tying everything right21:53
derbiei feel like i'm 12 years old poking around21:56
derbieError: Cannot find module '/root/index.js'21:56

cxdvtywtf? you guys wont even help me22:05
cxdvtyI need help with ubuntu not 15.0422:05
daftykinscxdvty: right and it might have a bug in that versions installer22:06
tewardcxdvty: [2015-03-08 18:04:36] <cxdvty> i tried to install kubuntu 15.04 but the partitions got all messed up  <-- 15.04 is in #ubuntu+1 - it may be a bug in that version's installer, hence why we point you to #ubuntu+1 instead.22:07
cxdvtyughh i was explaining the cause of my situation22:08
m000gleI've just customized the Volume Up/Down by re-binding the coresponding media keys to "amixer set Master 3%+" and "amixer set Master 3%-" respectively.  However, following this change, the NotifyOSD volume notification no longer appears.22:08
nninCan anyone help identify the icon set of the folders in this picture http://www.m3ta4.net/hd/debian/partfive/32.png ?22:08
m000gleIs there anything I can add to this binding to have the NotifyOSD volume notification appear as normal?22:08
cxdvtyI want to know if i can delete everything on my drive but ubuntu 14.04 so it can have the whole drive again'22:08

chrislamp2<chrislamp2> hello guys! i have a problem with libreoffice 4 that i had not that in libreoffice 322:09
chrislamp2<chrislamp2> when i made changes or navigate throught the document the navigator tab always refreshing22:09
chrislamp2<chrislamp2> for example i have expand one branch in navigator and after made one change in document it is self refreshed, collapsing all the branches in navigator22:09
bpromptcxdvty:     either way, I'd do a manual partitioning firstly, then the installation, that should work, the installer usually does a good job by itsef, bear in mind we're in 03-15, not in 04-15, thus I'd think kubuntu 15.04 is still in beta22:09
cxdvtyit is22:09
daftykinscxdvty: do you want to keep any data?22:10
cxdvtyno22:10
daftykinscxdvty: how come you didn't notice the big "nuke everything and install" option?22:10
daftykinsis there an installer bug that stops this option being listed?22:10
cxdvtyno22:10
cxdvtyI had to dualboot22:10
cxdvtybecause its a beta22:11
cxdvtyIt may end up not working22:11
cxdvtyIm dual booted just with weird partitions22:11
cxdvtyI want to undo that22:11
cxdvtySo i just have ubuntui22:11

daftykinscxdvty: so what are you typing from now?22:13

daftykinscxdvty: or open the terminal and run "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"22:16
cxdvtyhttp://imgur.com/Qs4tbqk22:17
bpromptcxdvty:    as already suggested, that's not a good idea, you're going to remove the partitions you don't want, including 14.04 partition, which is where gparted is running from, do it from a a liveUSB session22:17
cxdvtyi want it all to belong to sda1 only22:17
daftykinsdidn't you say you want 15.04 beside it though?22:18
cxdvtyI will do that after i get sda1 all by itself22:18
ObrienDaveNO, leave it as is and just expand sda2 to occupy the un allocated space22:18
cxdvtyi just messed up22:18
daftykinsno that's duplicating the work.22:18
daftykinsgluing it back together just to separate it again wouldn't be a sensible use of time22:19
cxdvtythen what do i do?22:19
cxdvtyi only have the kubuntu 15.04 live usb now22:19
daftykinswell that's ready to install to right there, there's a swap partition, 14.04's / and 205GB of spare space to put 15.0422:20
cxdvty?22:20
daftykinsi don't see the problem22:20
cxdvtybut theres a 3rd partition idk whats in it22:20
daftykinswhich are you looking at?22:20
cxdvtythers 70gb of kubuntu22:20
ObrienDavedaftykins, he does not understand partitions, i think22:20
cxdvtyand 90gb of ubuntu22:20
cxdvtyand like 100-200 gb of something idk what it is22:21
daftykinscxdvty: no, there are only two partitions there. sda1 and sda5.22:21
daftykinscxdvty: 'unallocated' = ready to use22:21
ObrienDavecxdvty, sda2 is un-allocated. it does not exist yet22:21
cxdvtycuz i just deleted some22:21
ObrienDaveright click on sda2 and remove the EXTENDED partition22:22
daftykinsok so boot into 'try' mode of your 15.04 flash drive, join webchat and chat in #ubuntu+1 about how to install22:22
cxdvtywhy does my sda1 have only 80gb22:22
ObrienDavebecause you made it that size22:22
cxdvtyhow do i make it bigger than22:22
saqhello, i have ubuntu server 14.04 running zfs on linux for root and i cant seem to figure out how to get grub to behavior properly and boot22:23
ObrienDaveget rid if SDA2 first22:23
saqi always have to type in configfile <zfs path> and it works22:23
cxdvtyhow?22:23
saqive done the guide (even contributed a formatting script) but my grub-fu is not strong enough22:23
ObrienDaveright click on sda2 and remove the EXTENDED partition22:23
daftykinsthat'll need swap killed i think22:24
cxdvtytheres no option for that22:24
cxdvtywhen i right click i only get to choose manage flags and information22:24
daftykinsyou have to right click on swap and select swapoff first, but since you're in a running edition it likely won't allow it22:25
ObrienDaveunmount22:25
cxdvtyok it swapoffed lol22:25
cxdvtywhat now22:25
ObrienDaveyea, thats the mistake, your swap is part of the extended partition22:26
cxdvtywhat do we do?22:26
ObrienDavetry un mounting sda222:26
cxdvtyit is already22:26
ObrienDavedamn, this is going to be safer from a live system22:27

daftykinsok i'll draw the short straw, so did you say you wanted 14.04 to have more disk space?22:39
cxdvtyI want 14.04 to have it all22:39
cxdvtyI want it to be like none of this ever happened22:40
saqanyone able to give me advice on my grub issues?22:40
daftykinscxdvty: so you're not going to install 15.04 again after?22:40
ObrienDavesorry, my 85 year old mother just called22:40
cxdvtyActually I want 15.04 and 14.04 to share the space equally22:41
daftykinscxdvty: yep, so please understand that to complete this task we shall be doing it the easy way, not via your preferred approach22:42
daftykinsthere's no point going back to how it was when you're only going to undo that again immediately.22:42
cxdvtyHey... as long as it gets done22:42
daftykinsexcellent, so can you run gparted and make a fresh screenshot?22:42
daftykinsit might need installing, hmm not sure22:43
cxdvtyi would but gparted is not installed22:43

frankfi have a process named "tworks" and i typed killall -9 tw (then i pressed tab) and noticed it autocompleted the process name. Is this something with ubuntu only, or what can i attribute to the reason for this now happening? Is this something that has been newly built into the 'killall' process/binary ? Or, does it have to do with my terminal type? I am ssh'ing into a server, console only. bash23:48
