[00:47] <sergio-br23> heya
[00:47] <sergio-br23> trying to overwrite '/etc/init/startpar-bridge.conf', which is also in package sysvinit-utils 2.88dsf-58
[00:47] <sergio-br23> trying to install 14.04.2 here
[00:47] <sergio-br23> what is this?
[00:51] <sergio-br23> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1430598
[01:01] <sergio-br23> ubiquity is asking about resizing partition, but the only thing I did was choose the mount point
[01:33] <sergio-br23> I can't install the system here (bug report)
[01:36] <sergio-br2> anyone tested the manual install with this image?
[01:36] <holstein> sergio-br2: there are test cases documented at the QA testing site
[01:41] <clear``> hey guys, i have a wireless router that is 5ghz and 2.4ghz, my phone can find and connect to the 5ghz but my laptops can not find the 5ghz
[01:42] <clear``> is there a way to see if its my laptop or the router that is having the issue
[01:42] <holstein> laptop? or laptops?
[01:42] <clear``> i have 2 laptops. both xubuntu
[01:42] <holstein> are the laptop/s in question 5ghz capable with the driver you are able to use in linux?
[01:42] <clear``> my raspberry pi also cant view the 5ghz
[01:42] <clear``> how do i check?
[01:43] <holstein> laptop? or laptops?
[01:43] <holstein> ideally, you ask the manufacturer.. like with the pi..
[01:43] <holstein> sorry.. my new keyboard is odd..
[01:43] <clear``> lets see, ill look up the specs
[01:43] <holstein> i mean, if you are not seeing the 5ghz, thats my vote.. the driver doesnt support that.. it happens
[01:44] <holstein> i just connect to what linux can connect to, since, im not promised linux support officially
[01:44] <clear``> right
[01:44] <clear``> well i bought the same router for my home and for my business
[01:44] <clear``> 5g showed up at the office for one day, now its gone
[01:45] <holstein> for one day? on what? *both* laptops?
[01:45] <clear``> i bought the one for home over a year ago, the one in the office, yes for one day on both laptops
[01:46] <holstein> not sure.. i always expect little issues like that.. are they the same wifi chipsets? broadcom? what driver/s are you using?
[01:46] <clear``> Wi-Fi® Wireless networking (802.11b/g/n)+ Bluetooth 4.0  <- thats what the specs say
[01:47] <rpp601> hey guys, i have 3 xubuntu boxes on my network. i can ssh into them all and bewteen them all, etc. however only one of them is set up to access externally. when i ssh into it from an external ip, trying to ssh from there to another box on the network gives 'core dump' and drops me back to the shell. i can't duplicate the problem on my local network.
[01:47] <holstein> clear``: what chipset is it? thats what you'll need to go by when "hacking" linux support onto devices that dont promise linux support.. unless the manufacturers do promise support, like system76 or another linux reseller
[01:48] <clear``> http://www.toshiba.com/us/computers/laptops/satellite/S50/S50-BST2NX2
[01:48] <holstein> rpp601: you may need a more general linux channel.. you can always as in #ubuntu or #ubuntu-server.. i would look at the configuration.. if one is in the DMZ for example, and the traffic is different in some way
[01:48]  * clear`` is looking up the chipset
[01:49] <rpp601> holstein, i asked in there but they were busy - this just started at random so i dunno.
[01:49] <rpp601> but thanks
[01:51] <clear``> Intel Wireless LAN Driver
[01:52] <holstein> clear``: you can see, when i open a terminal, and run "lspci" i get a lot of output about my hardware, such as my wifi NIC..
[01:52] <holstein> 05:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 / AR9565 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
[01:53] <clear``> 07:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142 802.11b/g/n (rev 01)
[01:53] <holstein> clear``: lspci -vv shows me "	Kernel driver in use: ath9k
[01:53] <clear``> lol that was simple, thanks
[01:53] <holstein> !broadcom
[01:54] <holstein> typically, i just pull broadcom and replace.. but, i dont have firsthand experience with that chipset
[01:55] <holstein> clear``: typically, things are the "best" they can be "out of the box" in linux.. but, you can try some other drivers and modules..
[01:55] <holstein> clear``: i would just fire up a few live isos and try different drivers and kernels and different software versions easily that way
[01:56] <clear``> Known Issues
[01:56] <clear``> * LP#1010931 14e4:4727 [Dell Vostro 3555] Broadcom BCM4313 5GHz doesn't work but 2.4GHz does
[01:56] <holstein> clear``: well, there you go..
[01:57]  * clear`` googles for known issues with BCM43142
[01:57] <holstein> at least you know whats up.. i would just use 2.4, and not worry about it
[01:57] <clear``> 2.4 is really really slow
[01:57] <clear``> i cant even stream a movie :(
[01:57] <clear``> across the network
[01:57] <holstein> cool.. so, you can replace the chip, you can run a supported os.. be sure you let them know you would like linux support for 5GHZ..
[01:58] <holstein> check the other chipset, and make sure its the same
[01:58] <holstein> i think you'll find, you *should* be able to stream just fine on the 2.4..
[01:59] <clear``> thanks, i found a few posts im going to read
[01:59] <clear``> see, this is why i think its a router issue
[01:59] <clear``> i streamed for 5 mins fine, then it starts to buffer and lag
[01:59] <clear``> really bad, then all wifi goes really slow
[01:59] <holstein> could be. i would boot the officially suppported OS and test the router with the wifi NIC running under the supported driver
[02:00] <clear``> is there a usb bootable for windows?
[02:00] <clear``> i havent done windows in for ever :(
[02:00] <holstein> not sure..
[02:00] <holstein> im sure you can find another way to isolate..
[02:01] <holstein> another machine with intel hardware runing a live iso..
[02:01] <holstein> maybe you can borrow, etc..
[02:02] <clear``> my other laptop is a different xubuntu version, still a toshiba tho
[02:02]  * clear`` wonders if anyone at his office building has 5ghz signal
[02:02] <clear``> ill test that tomorrow
[02:04] <holstein> clear``: i would be testing with live iso's, as i suggested, with the *same* kernel.. maybe a few different ones
[02:04] <clear``> thanks, i will try that as well
[03:32] <Ullarah> Howdy, is there a way to add a seperator line in the favourites part, just like in the Accessories section?
[03:34] <nick_____> hey guys ... can you please tell me how I could map Super_L+F6 key to increase the brightness using xkb?
[03:34] <nick_____> I tried the xkb documentation the whole evening ... it is just beyond my brain capacity
[03:35] <Ullarah> nick_____, if you know the command to increase your brightness, you can go into the Keyboard section and use Application Shortcuts.
[03:35] <nick_____> yeah ... but I want to do it using the xkb
[03:36] <Ullarah>  > Use xbacklight
[03:36] <Ullarah>  > Create keyboard shortcut
[03:36] <Ullarah>  > Profit
[03:37] <Ullarah> If you /really/ want to get tricky nick_____, take a look at this, http://www.charvolant.org/~doug/xkb/html/index.html
[03:37] <Unit193> Ullarah: Use Menulibre or edit xfce-applications.menu in .config/menus/xfce-applications.menu
[03:37] <nick_____> did that ... this site is beyond my brain capacity
[03:37] <Ullarah> Cheers Unit193 :)
[03:38]  * eikon81g bows to Unit193 
[03:38] <nick_____> I bet there is something simpler, yet gui independent (so it could work in unity, kde, gnome, you name it)
[03:38] <eikon81g> lol :)
[03:39] <Ullarah> Ah, Unit193, I'm using whiskermenu which comes with 14.10
[03:39] <Ullarah> Not the standard applications menu.
[03:39] <Unit193> xfpm-power-backlight-helper likely isn't what you want though.
[03:39] <Unit193> Ullarah: Ahhh, right, that.
[03:39] <Ullarah> I can switch over, no issues there :P
[03:41] <Unit193> It's just I've hardly used whisker, enough to know it's not for me.  It has defaults.rc, though don't think that's how to do what you're looking for.
[03:48] <Ullarah> Anybody know why the catfish program in 14.10 comes up with weird writing?
[03:48] <Ullarah> I should have said, in the menu.
[03:48] <Unit193> Weird writing?
[03:49] <Ullarah>  > Menu > Accessories > Catfish is named something with weird characters, like swirls and stuff.
[03:50] <Ullarah> Unit193, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10578169/
[03:50] <Unit193> =කැට්ෆිෂ් ගොනුව සෙවීම?
[03:50] <Unit193> Hah.
[03:50] <Ullarah> So it's not just me?
[03:50] <Unit193> Ullarah: You're using en_AU.  Well I don't get it, but a quick look at the desktop files shows it "translated" into en_AU with that string. :D
[03:51] <Unit193> This is good.
[03:51] <Ullarah> Could you tell me what it should actually say so I can change it? :P
[03:51] <Unit193> I have no idea how that happened. :D
[03:51] <Unit193> Name=Catfish File Search
[03:52] <Ullarah> Cheers.
[03:52] <Unit193> Name[si]=කැට් ෆිෂ් ලිපි ගොනු සෙවීම  looks like it was just copied.
[03:53] <Unit193> I like that bug. :D
[03:53] <Unit193> And sure thing.
[03:53] <Ullarah> Heh.
[03:54] <Ullarah> And everything is named incorrectly when adding/removing items to the xfce panels.
[03:54] <Ullarah> For instance, whiskermenu is called 'Clock'
[03:55] <Ullarah> Is there a screen recorder I can use?
[03:55] <Ullarah> It might make more sense to show the issue there.
[03:55] <Ullarah> Hmm. VLC seems to be able to do it.
[03:57] <Unit193> Can't remember the name of a common one.
[03:58] <eikon81g> I'm out you guys ttyl :) Later
[03:59] <Unit193> Have fun.
[04:00] <bluesabre> gtk-recordmydesktop works well
[04:00] <holstein> ^ thats the one ive always used..
[04:00] <bazhang> kazam has always been good for me
[04:01] <bazhang> !info kazam
[04:01] <bluesabre> yes, kazam is also pretty great
[04:01] <bazhang> there is one other recent one iirc, eidon/eidet
[04:03] <Ullarah> Where could I upload a webm file to?
[04:03] <holstein> youtube? your server? direct email?
[04:03] <bluesabre> youtube potentially
[04:03] <Ullarah> webmup.com :P
[04:03] <holstein> maybe vimeo?
[04:04] <Ullarah> Okay, this is weird, webmup.com/CpIEZ
[04:04] <Ullarah> See the menu?
[04:05] <Unit193> PPAs?  How many panels do you have?  Maybe xfsettingsd or xfconfd?  I have never seen this before.
[04:06] <Ullarah> Only installed the webupd8team PPA
[04:07] <Ullarah> I mean it's not a /huge/ issue :P
[04:07] <Ullarah> Just something weird I noticed :)
[04:07] <Unit193> So, two amusing things in one night, awesome.
[04:07] <Ullarah> Maybe I'll find more Unit193! :P
[04:08] <Unit193> I'll have to stick around then.
[04:08] <Ullarah> Hahaha!
[04:09] <Ullarah> Interesting. Whiskermenu holds a temporary favourites. Remove it from your panel resets your favourites.
[04:19] <Ullarah> Aaaaand, adding the verve command line to a panel which is set to automatically hide makes the panel not hide at all.
[05:50] <Ullarah> Should I update xfce to 4.12 or wait for xubuntu 15.04 ?
[07:28] <ckatt> hello
[09:01] <pot> Hi! Under the 4.12 which app manage the background itself?
[09:07] <Unit193> xfdesktop4.
[09:11] <pot> Actually i don't have bg after i updated nautilus '^^
[09:11] <pot> Odd but i can live with this 'feature'
[09:33] <kashel> hello
