lotuspsychjerexbutler: not sure if this is your case exactly, but you can try00:00
teh_thelotuspsychje sorry but nothing =/00:00
teh_theI'll try a reboot with hdmi connected00:01

gr1zzlybe4ri'm on GNOME300:06
lotuspsychjeteh_the: can you try to start the 'sound' icon from dash00:06
teh_thelotuspsychje is that the sound options?00:09
NTQHi. I just git a weird problem with Ubuntu Gnome 14.04. I simply restarted my system (since 7 days) and now it logs me in as user 'gdm'. Normally there should be a login screen where I can log in as user 'nicolas'.00:09
lotuspsychjeteh_the: yes sound options icon, maybe hdmi shows from there?00:10
teh_thenope it doesnt00:10
NTQI can type CTRL+ALT+F1 to switch to a console and login as user 'nicolas', but the graphical user interface always logs in as user 'gdm'.00:10
teh_thealready said that it only shows one output option00:10
teh_theand that's the built-in speakers00:11

somsipSerdar: np00:24
gr1zzlybe4rdoes the external hard drive have the same file system that you're using on ubuntu? i've had problems with that before00:26

teh_thelotuspsychje again thanks but it didn't work... but worst after doing that I had no sound at all00:38
SerdarI get this the whole time: Writing GRUB to boot device failed00:38
teh_thenow deleted the lines and audio is working as before built in speakers00:38
NTQHas anyone an idea why Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 always logs me in as the user 'gdm' instead of showing me a login screen?00:39
daftykinsNTQ: what are you looking at to believe you're called gdm? :)00:40
hwutholle00:41
NTQdaftykins: If I go to "Files" my home folder is /var/lib/gdm.00:41
hwutholle frecel00:41
teh_thethis is really messed up00:41
daftykinsNTQ: that is most definitely broken :)00:41
NTQdaftykins: I just restarted my system and now Ubuntu loged me in as the user 'gdm'.00:42
daftykinsNTQ: are you sure this was a normal installation from USB flash drive or DVD, from an official ISO?00:42
teh_theoh sorry lotus didn't noticed ur other link will read now :)00:42
NTQdaftykins: My Ubuntu runs since april 2014 without problems.00:42
daftykinsas in this same install? i dont know what you're saying00:43
wheresmypaaantsWell, my computer appears to have a boatload of issues .-. - I fixed my issue from yesterday, and this one isn't necessarily pressing, however it is a bit of an annoyance. While using the Live CD for Ubuntu, I have perfect resolution on the boot screen and in the shells (F1, F2, etc...), however, once installed and booting from SDD, the resolution is zoomed in heavily. I have fixed this by changing the settings in GRUB, howe00:43
wheresmypaaantsthe Live CD00:43
NTQdaftykins: After 7 days uptime I wanted to restart my system. I am able to switch to an other console via CTRL+ALT+F1 and I can log in as the normal user 'nicolas'.00:43
daftykinsNTQ: ok so just your GUI has gone funny, have you enabled auto-login or something?00:44
NTQdaftykins. Autologin is disabled. I always have to type in my password for login.00:44
daftykinsso when you boot up you are already staring at a password entry box? no user selection?00:45
NTQI also have installed Ubuntu Mata 14.04 on an other partition. This one works well, but it is just a test system with the same home partition.00:45
daftykinshrmm mixed homes, ok00:46
NTQdaftykins: Sure. Normally I have to choose the user, then password and login. But now Ubuntu logs me in without any prompt.00:46
daftykinsNTQ: this is a very drastic move, but just as a test - log in at a TTY and "mv ~/.config ~/.configold" then restart00:47
daftykinsand see if it makes any difference00:47
NTQdaftykins: You mean the .config from the normal user, not gdm00:48
daftykinscorrect00:48
daftykinsthough perhaps i'm barking up the wrong tree00:48
dhrosadoes anyone have tips for utilizing a not-always-available filesystem as a cache to speed things up? I have a server with 4GB of RAM, and I have a desktop with 32GB of RAM that is sometimes on. I thought it would be a cool idea to expose part of my desktop's RAM as a remote-mounted ramdisk for the server00:49
dhrosathe latency and throughpout would be faster than a spinning disk filesystem00:49
daftykinsnot over a LAN it wouldn't00:49
dhrosathe ping between the two is 0.2ms00:50
NTQdaftykins: I am available as NTQ2 on my smartphone. I just moved the folder and now i restart.00:50
daftykinsor just get an SSD (:00:50
teh_thelotuspsychje pavucontrol did the trick :) thanks00:50
dhrosaI'm also considering an SSD, the server's an old laptop of mine00:50
dhrosaI might see if I can replace its dvd drive with a second SSD00:50
teh_thestill only one output appears on audio settings but i can select hdmi output on pavucontrol00:51
teh_theweird stuff00:51
lotuspsychje!yay | teh_the00:51
ubottuteh_the: Glad you made it! :-)00:51
NTQdaftykins: It did not help.00:52
teh_thewould be nice they fixed this problem00:52
daftykinsdhrosa: if the server is being a proper server, so doesn't have X installed, 4GB shouldn't pose a problem to too much00:52
teh_thethanks guys ubottu lotuspsychje00:52
daftykinsNTQ: ok, that's annoying00:52
NTQdaftykins: Again I was logged in as user 'gdm'.00:52
teh_thethis should be fixed without 3rd party tools i think00:53
dhrosadaftykins: "free -h" reports 2.9G used, and -/+ buffers/cache lists 2.2G used, that means 2.2GB is being used as FS caches, right?00:53
dhrosaif so that's pretty good then I guess00:53
teh_the..ermm I'm guessing this pavucontrol is 3rd party00:53
NTQThe partition is correctly mounted, because I can log in as user 'nicolas' in an other console and I see the home directory of that user.00:53
daftykinsNTQ: does it make any difference if you log in to TTY1, then run "sudo service gdm stop" then "...start" ?00:54
dhrosaalso, how can I tell if my DVD drive is a sata device from the command line? my laptop doesn't provide a serice manual, so I can't just refer to that00:54
NTQdaftykins: I'll give it a try00:54
drose379Anyone had the issue where random letters in the toolbar (Top of apps) are missing?00:55
drose379Different each time the computer starts up00:55
daftykinsdhrosa: typically they're one screw to take out anyway, if it's a removable one00:55
drose379Like today Im missing "G"00:55
drose379Earlier (before I restarted)  I was missing all sorts of letters00:55
daftykinsdhrosa: "free -m | pastebinit"00:55
NTQ_daftykins: Again I am logged in as 'gdm'.00:55
dhrosapastebinit sounds like an upstart or systemd kind of thing almost :)00:56
dhrosadaftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10665295/00:56
dhrosaa pastebin-based init replacement00:56
daftykinsNTQ_: does this apply? http://linux.about.com/od/ubuntu_doc/a/ubudg10t5.htm00:57
daftykinsdhrosa: so does this system have X running?00:58
teh_thelotuspsychje should I report this officialy somehow? Maybe someone already did, but I mean this is happening on a LTS version00:58
dhrosadaftykins: it might accidentally, I've installed some things that might have had an X dependency, but it doesn't have a proper desktop manager or anything00:58
dhrosaI'm not explicitly using X on it00:59
NTQ_daftykins: I could try to enable automatic login for the standard user.00:59
lotuspsychjeteh_the: not sure mate sorry00:59
daftykinsNTQ_: or just find the config file and see if it's got anything in it00:59
daftykinsdhrosa: i wouldn't be concerned about the RAM usage there anywho00:59

outlaw-666i did a fresh install of Xubuntu14.04 ... but i have really low RAM 1GB ... and i was not asked to make a swap ... wasnt it suppose to ask me to do it ?01:26
kush22halloooo01:26
daftykinsoutlaw-666: depends if you selected manual partitioning or not01:26
outlaw-666no, just install01:27
daftykinssure there's only one partition? "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"01:27
outlaw-666do i need to redo the install ... or can i creat a swap now ?01:27
daftykinsdepends how good your partitioning skills are :)01:27
outlaw-666sudo apt-get upgrade01:28
outlaw-666oops01:28
wlodpolmi recommend partd magic ultimate boot cd has the last free version still i think01:28

daftykinsso you do have swap01:28
daftykinsalso, don't paste here01:29
outlaw-666but wasnt it supposed to be like 2GB ?01:29
daftykinsnope01:29
outlaw-666yeah, i know if it a big paste ill get muted01:29
outlaw-666so ... i do have a swap, and its the size of the disk ?01:29
daftykinssize of the RAM01:30
outlaw-666oh right, another GB01:30
daftykinstype "free -m"01:30
OerHeksswap is the size of all adressable memory, ram, videoram, cahce and such01:30
OerHeksthat is why it is bigger than 102401:30
outlaw-666daftykins, ok i did .. and ?01:31

daftykins*facepalm* please stop pasting01:31
outlaw-666lol ok sorry guys :/01:31
outlaw-666but .. since i have only 1gb .. shouldnt i have a bigger swap to help RAM ?01:32
daftykinsif you even go into swap it's a bad sign01:32
daftykinsjust use it01:32
wlodpolmswap file is meant to be used.01:32
wlodpolmit's just we aren't efficient01:32
daftykinshmm i don't fancy touching that conversation if you want to say that :)01:33
wlodpolmthink of it this way, if you don't have a flea market how does a person get duplicate items on a low income?01:33
outlaw-666well... the problem is ... that i had the xubuntu installed in a memory card ... and i cant remember if i had the swap area on it ... but i have a feeling i did, and today it died01:33
daftykinsif you put swap on a memory card it's going to die01:34
daftykinsthey are not designed to tolerate it01:34
OerHeksWithout swap no hybernate https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq01:34
outlaw-666so i had a SATA hdd here .. i went to get a external hdd case, and now i have it to accomodate xubuntu01:34
wlodpolmthat too01:34
outlaw-666yeah, i think thats what killed my memory card01:34
outlaw-666someone before told me to get a SSD and a HDD01:35
wlodpolma SSD is good for video01:35
outlaw-666and to never place the swap on the SSD as it will eat it up on the long run01:35
OerHeksSSD's can handle swap fine these days.01:36
OerHeksand trim is also enabled by default01:36
wlodpolmthe only reason i can think of for a home user to use a SSD is to load 3-d games and movie processing01:36
outlaw-666so you guys think that i have the install the best way to improve performance of this Legacy GX620 ?01:36
superherointjGuys. Ubuntu needs to stop breaking video graphics, I have a nvidia GTX 780 Ti video card. And I can't use it. It breaks every week.01:36
superherointjI've just allowed Ubuntu system update and now video is broken.01:37
outlaw-666btw ... i have a feeling that this old processor, is 64bit able ...01:38

outlaw-666whats the main difference between 32bit xubuntu and 64bit xubuntu ?01:40
outlaw-666and which is faster on this old machine ?01:40
dhrosaoutlaw-666: you'll get better performance and access to more memory on 64-bit01:41
daftykinsoutlaw-666: running 64-bit would consume more RAM on your system, so i'd advise against it.01:41
outlaw-666daftykins, thats what i thought01:41
outlaw-666i know i can have more than 3GB01:41
outlaw-666but my MB wont support more than 4 ... and i dont have them now01:41
dhrosasorry, assuming you're not memory-constrained, 64-bit architectures are more performant01:41
outlaw-666so.. i guess 32 will stay01:41
outlaw-666no problem dhrosa01:42

outlaw-666even if its just 1gb01:44
daftykinsjust use your computer and see how it goes :)01:45
daftykinsi think you're worried for nothing01:45
outlaw-666someone told me that lubuntu will be faster01:45
daftykinsalthough if this OS is installed on a memory card, alarm bells are ringing01:45
daftykinslubuntu is even more lightweight i think yes, but it's also a lot uglier in my personal opinion01:45

mathuwell, wouldn't hurt to tell users to run the apt-get command for it anyway02:01
superherointjmathu, it breaks Ubuntu! Don't do it!02:02
mathuhaha02:02
outlaw-666Loshki, none that i know .. lol02:02
superherointjI was just talking about it.02:02
cfhowlettmathu, suggesting on a beginners forum that users do stuff that breaks their system is NOT funny.02:02
superherointj"<superherointj> Just fixed my Video Card Driver AGAIN. I hope one day Ubuntu stops breaking with updates."02:02
Righteoush02:03
OerHekssuperherointj, so if you installed the driver from the website, you will need to reinstall with every new kernel02:03
Loshkioutlaw-666: just for completeness, it has a web page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosher_foods02:03
superherointjOerHeks, yes.02:03
mathucfhowlett: if python3 is installed and i tell a user to run "sudo apt-get install pyhton3" then apt-get will just say it's already installed02:03
superherointjOerHeks, but it doesn't work otherwise.02:04
mathucfhowlett: the haha was because this won't actually break anything02:04
outlaw-666lol Loshki thanks for the info ... :D02:04
OerHekssupubuntu maybe the xorg edgers ppa with the same driver is an solution, but ppa's happen to break sometimes too.02:04
mathucfhowlett: breaking other people's computers is not funny, i agree :)02:04

sysop2hey has anyone here's hdmi audio out stop working?  but it works in windows so I am sure its not a hardware problem.02:07
superherointjGTX 780 Ti. I have to manually stop X window system (sudo service lightdm stop) and "init 3" and run the NVIDIA video card graphics file (Ex.: ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-346.47.run).02:07

delinquentmeis there an easy way that I can uninstall a program + erase *ANY* modifications its made to my file system?02:07
delinquentmeI installed it with apt-get02:07
Ben64superherointj: well thats why, don't use the package from the website if you want it to work after updating02:08
somsipdelinquentme: you can purge but this will not remove any files you've added or amended (and the directories containing them)02:08
cfhowlettdelinquentme, apt-get purge is the closest but I find that it still leaves artifacts02:08
ObrienDavedelinquentme, sudo apt-get purge <name>02:08
superherointjBen64, what if the 'standard package' doesn't work as expected? And doesn't allow the standard resolution of my monitor which is ONLY 1050.02:08
Ben64superherointj: then use the xorg-edgers ppa02:09
sysop2apt-file list will show you everything that was installed with the package.02:09
sysop2apt-file list packagename. I mean.02:09
superherointjAllright. But my point is, for a 'new user', it is going to be a lot of headache this sort of behaviour. I'm installing this PPA now, let's see how it goes.02:11
Ben64superherointj: you need to remove the manually installed package first02:12
Ben64and adding and installing from a PPA is much easier than the nvidia.com version02:12
superherointjWhat is the command?02:12
Ben64command for...?02:13
superherointj"sudo nvidia-uninstall" ?02:13
Ben64its something like sudo nvidia-blah.blah-blah.run --uninstall02:13
mutualso i took out a cd that had mounted fine, and then i put in another one, but when i did that nothing happened02:13
mutualand now i can't get anything to happen when i insert cds02:14

bonhoefferok — so crontab -e opens the file, but it doesn’t seem to take after saving, any options?02:23

bonhoefferok — cool — thanks02:23
delinquentmeis it a *big deal* if I know that file to be something I placed in there?  and NOT a system conf ?02:24
Ben64delinquentme: yes, you made a mistake02:24

delinquentmeBen64, its a conf for a file I created.  ok so if I need to get it back ... how / where does it go after I run $ rm flask_default.conf02:24
Ben64delinquentme: oh well if you made it thats different... normally there wouldn't be any user created files in /etc/init02:25
delinquentmewell it was created by supervisor which I installed / configured02:25
delinquentmeflask_default is a name of a python application I wanted to have run on startup -- and gut feeling says that there arent too many applications of that naming02:26

Ricke3Hi all, I am trying to update my Ubuntu system and am receiving an error stating that I need to free up disk space on my /boot partition. I was wondering how I could safely expand my /boot partition in order to accommodate the update.03:19
=== lostatwork is now known as lostson
cfhowlettRicke3, I'd bet you've updated your kernel several times, yes?  You need to spring clean the your /boot to clear out old kernels: sudo apt-get autoremove03:22
Bashing-omRicke3: 14.04 + try -> sudo a[t-get autoremove <- to remove old lernels .03:23
Ricke3Doing some research it seems people suggest removing old kernels but I am looking and really don't have many. This system has been only operating for a couple months so it's received less than a half of dozen updates.03:24
Ricke3I will try those commands to remove though that is not needed.03:24

AeiortvIf I remove unity and then apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, will unity be re-installed?03:56
cfhowlettAeiortv, no03:56
cfhowlettAeiortv, unity is very much integrated into ubuntu.  removing it will you a LONG list of issues.  consider installing an alternate desktop environment instead: sudo apt-get install lxde xfce4 kde-plasma           for example.  then logout, choose an alternate ubuntu DE, login03:57
cfhowlett!flavors | if you see a DE you prefer, install that flavor03:58
ubottuif you see a DE you prefer, install that flavor: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu.03:58
Aeiortvcfhowlett: Will I still be tracked by unity if I install an alternate DE?03:58
xanguaAeiortv: what is your real question¿03:58
cfhowlettAeiortv, errrrrrrrrrrrr, no.  no unity = no unity services03:58
cfhowlett!nounity03:58
ubottuUbuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic03:58

Ben64no04:04
xcyclistThen Why?  Why such a Shakespearean duplication as this on such an otherwise elegant and perfect pile of ...???04:05
Ben64its not even the same thing04:05
Ben64you're basically asking - "Why is there both apples and oranges????"04:05
xcyclistLet me ask it another way:  Is there a reasonable way to understand some logical mutually exclusive set of things covered by each of these commands to set default editor?04:06
Ben64you're mistaken that update-alternatives sets the default editor04:07
ObrienDaveWhy is there both apples and oranges???? to make grapefruit juice with, silly ;P04:07
xanguaI preffer grape juice04:08
xcyclistThis:  "update-alternatives --config editor" allows me to set the editor that comes up for things like visudoers.  If it works for visudoers, why not for crontab -e?  What is the reason?04:08
Flannelxcyclist: do you have EDITOR or VISUAL variables set?04:09
Ben42_read what it says when you use update-alternatives04:09
xcyclistNope.  I set my default editor with update-alternatives --config editor.  It works on everything  but crontab -e.04:10
xcyclistIt works, for instance, on git commit.04:10
Ben42_There are 4 choices for the alternative editor (providing /usr/bin/editor).04:11
Ben42_it sets what /usr/bin/editor is symlinked to, and thats it04:11
Flannelxcyclist: crontab -e will honor EDITOR and VISUAL variables, and then fall back to /usr/bin/editor (which is linked to the alternatives system), so I suspect you unknowingly have one of those set.04:11

Andrei_Hi, I have a question about the Ubuntu 14.10 setup,  if I choose to Erase Windows 7 and Install Ubuntu will it also delete the partition I made for my important files?06:31

theosrick__ http://askubuntu.com/questions/161652/how-to-change-the-default-font-size-of-xterm06:32
Andrei_If that's the case, can I just delete my Windows 7 partitions then create 1 root partition and proceed with the installation?06:33
cihhanhi all! i have a question about creating a deb package. i have create one deb package with dependencies. however, when i apt-get remove my_package, the dependencies still exists. how can i stop and remove the dependencies as well?06:34
theosAndrei_ you can format the windows 7 partition to ext4 and install ubuntu on it if you want. no need to delete it.06:34
Ben64cihhan: sudo apt-get autoremove should do that06:34
cihhanBen64, Let me check asap06:35
cihhanBen64, yep, it works fine. Why doesn't it remove with apt-get remove?06:36
Ben64cihhan: because you told it to remove the one package06:36
Andrei_theos: Okay, thanks06:36
cihhanand the dependencies stayed there. I see. Thank you very much Ben64, this was really very helpful :)06:37
rick__theos, thanks, I got a problem that I can not specify font size with the format of widthxwidth...so I can't make it emulate 80 columns and 24 rows with fullscreen in the resolution 1920x108006:40
rick__Does this means I need to prepare a fixed font who's size is in given width and height I want?06:42
theosrick__ i find xterm to be very basic. you can try gnome-terminal.07:00
rick__theos, it seems xterm has better vt220 support, I need vt220 support and try many terminal program with vttest, the vtxxx emulation test program07:03
theosi see07:07
theosrick__ gnome-terminal supports vt220 http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/gnome-terminal.1.html07:09
nextboxwhere do I configure kerberos authentication cache?07:12
rick__theos, thanks, I try gnome-terminal, it can launch with --maximized and --geometry=80x24, but it still not adjust fontsize to match 80 columns and 24 rows, it is much larger than that.07:12

nicheCan anyone help me remove Unity on 14.04?07:42
cfhowlett!nounity | niche07:42
ubottuniche: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic07:42

snebelHi13:36
snebeli'm trying to figure out why my ubuntu user beliongs to different groups depending on where i check13:37
snebeli meain if i make su - <user> with root account for exmaple13:38
snebelthen id13:38
snebeli have the "correct" ones13:38
snebelfollowing /etc/group file13:38
snebelif i run id command13:38
snebelfrom a fresh terminal started from the GUI13:38
snebeli have many others like cdrom etc13:39
snebeluid=1000(snebel29) gid=1000(snebel29) groups=1000(snebel29),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),124(sambashare)13:39
snebeli would like to understand whats happening...13:39
snebeli guess there is a relationship with the GUI/console mode13:39
Picisnebel: What do you mean 'correct' ones?13:39
snebelwell, i mean the groups you can find into the /etc/group file13:40
snebelfor my username13:40
snebelit's like now i have 2 different environments for the same user "at least for the group where i belong"13:42
k1lif you su maybe the env variables are not set properly13:42
rypervenchesnebel: Can you pastebin the two different ones and the commands run for each please?13:42
snebelyes one second13:42

snebelThis is a recent ubunut installation (yesterday)13:45
k1lsnebel: "id user" just lists the groups 1000+, so i think that is a "security" issue and is likely to be expected.13:46
k1lsnebel: the su - thing is known to be bad on ubuntu. use sudo -i for root shell13:46
snebelthe real problem i have is with group 1001(rvm)13:47
snebelwhen my "session" is showing my this group i can run with no problem rvm13:48
snebelwhen is not showing this group i can't13:48

dstarhthey both exec $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh run but one attempts to redirect it's output14:05
ZIPYcan i execute commands in terminal that are waiting for input before they execute? i mean directly, not with a script file14:06
daftykinsZIPY: got an example? not quite following you14:06
jamesarchwhell i can't open this link maybe for gfw14:06
ZIPYok in a script you have to echo your text, read the input and then execute the command, can i do this alltogether within a single terminal command?14:08
dstarhqdii I don't think we need to export.  The working script does env with CATALINA_HOME and is used during the exec command14:08
dstarhwhoops looks like we pinged a user name e xport14:10
daftykinsZIPY: i get this feeling you are asking for how to format a given example command with some switches so it performs the task in one go, but i can't quite tell ;)14:11
dstarhppf any other thoughts or any suggestions on what to try?14:11
dstarhdaftykins it sounds as if he wants to have a one liner that will echo some text, get some input from stdin and then send that input to another command14:12
ZIPYdaftykins: yes thats what i meant14:12
ppfdstarh: did you check the contents of $CATALINA_OUT ?14:12
daftykinsZIPY: can you share what the command + task is, then? :)14:13
jamesarchWhat happened this link  http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/14:13
dstarhppf yes nothing there either14:13
dstarhjamesarch noticed that when i was searching for info on upstart14:13
snebeldstarh: if i remember well on tomcat there was some catalina.out log file somewhere14:13
ppfdstarh: nothing there as in empty?14:14
dstarhppf nothing there as not even created14:14
ZIPYfor example a vlc command vlc -vvv http://ip:port:/tv.asf where i want to enter ip port in this example via prompt14:14
ZIPYwith transcode parameters etc14:14
dstarhsnebel when tomcat starts normally yes, when it starts via upstart, upstart redirects stdout and stderr to /var/log/upstart/tomcat.log14:14
ppfdstarh: you did run your script, though, didn't you?14:15
dstarhsudo start tomcat14:15
dstarhthat should run that script14:15
jamesarchwell  i mean this page is a problem?14:16
dstarhit even gives me a pid but by the time I psaux it's already stopped14:16
daftykinsZIPY: you might get some good help over in #bash14:16
ZIPYok, i will try thx14:16
ppfran it manually yet?14:16

dstarhyes it does14:17
dstarhthe file doesn't exist but the path to it does exist14:17
sveinseHi. I'm running 14.10 server, and I notice that grub and somewhere during system startup the console output changes resolution., How can I get it to stick with a resolution?14:18
dstarhpwd14:18
dstarh /usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.39/logs14:18
daftykinssveinse: it's more the font that changes i think14:18
deck_Does anyone know how to configure wireless USB via command line? I am using a Dlink DWA-123 Version 414:19
sveinsedaftykins: Yes and no. It changes resolution as well. Point is, I want *one* kernel output in one fixed resolution. How?14:19
daftykinssveinse: what's the graphics hardware and why does it matter?14:19
sveinseAnd the screen goes black in a few seconds. Plymouth things perhaps14:20
sveinsedaftykins: Well, I can't see all of the messages because they are hidden and it disappears when the resolution/font is changed. Annoying14:20
sveinseIntegrated intel gfx14:20
daftykinshidden... how?14:21
dstarhppf no didn't run it manually yet, can you execute a conf file via bash or did you mean transform it to something that would run in bash?14:21
ppfwhat kind of conf file?14:21
dstarhthis is in an upstart conf file in /etc/init/tomcat.conf14:22
sveinsedaftykins: Some of the log is on the graphical screen (Ctrl+7)14:22
ppfit sure looks like a shell script14:22
ppfso just try and run it14:23
sveinse(and I have no X11 on the server, so there is no wm)14:23
daftykinsoh so it's not a proper server, you installed X.14:23
daftykinswat14:23
sveinseIf I set grub gfx mode, it lasts for a few seconds, and then something in ubuntu is changing the resolution regardless. And the screen in black half of the time during booting14:24
sveinseAnd I find parts of the bootup output on VT714:24
cxdvtyI just got a really big tv and i want my display to be on the tv but when I do most of the screen on ubuntu gets cut off. How do I fix this up?14:25
sveinsethis is vanilla ubuntu 14.10 server without any X14:25

an3kI'm running Ubuntu Server 14.04 and want to set display resolution and screen resolution for grub as well as console to 1024x768. With the default settings I get a display and screen resolution of 800x600 for grub and a display resolution of 1024x768 and a screen resolution of 800x600 for console.16:00
an3kI tried setting GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768 but that didn't changed anything. I added GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=1024x768 but that didn't changed anything too.16:01
an3kI also modified /boot/grub/grub.cfg manually and set gfxmode=1024x768 and set gfxpayload=1024x768 but that also didn't worked.16:02
an3kI also modified /etc/grub.d/00_header (based on http://askubuntu.com/questions/18444/how-do-i-increase-console-mode-resolution/18463#18463) but even that didn't worked.16:03

OerHeksan3k, all you need is 'vga=792' in the bootline AFAIK16:06
sveinseOn ubuntu where does sudo pip install install to?16:06
an3kOerHeks: so GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="vga=792" and that's it?16:07
OerHeksan3k, after the splash part yes16:07
an3kthere's no splash part, maybe because it's Ubuntu Server?16:07
an3khowever, I'll give it a try16:08
an3kOerHeks: Tried it. Grub menu is still 800x600 (800x600), bootup is in 720x400 (720x400) and console is in 800x600 (1024x768)16:11
OerHeksan3k, then i have no clue :-(16:13
OerHeksIt should be 32 bit, 792, maybe it is 16 bit = 791 but that worked never for me http://www.pendrivelinux.com/vga-boot-modes-to-set-screen-resolution/16:14
dstarhppf fya, i've run $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh run >> "$CATALINA_OUT" 2>&1 in bash and it works fine, then put it in a script block within upstart and it doesn't work from there either16:16

Guest7588"then there is the data your users will save in /home.", and I mean In MB, total16:35
Guest7588so how much would be good?16:35
k1l_Guest7588: i dont know what you will want to safe. i have 90GB in /home as user data.16:35
Guest7588I will not use it to save things so much16:36

yossarianukjg-:  block the tor port17:06
somsipjq-: https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse.html.en#Bans17:07
yossarianukjg-:  if you mean how do you stop tor visitors hitting your server that is harder - you can try blocking exit node ips - but that won't really help.17:07
jq-yossarianuk: Yeah, I don't want any tor user to be able to access my site.17:07
somsipjq-: read the official faq, as linked17:08

BenBEdaftykins: (Regarding the boot issue) Definitively the *disk*: efibootmgr reports 8 entries in the boot order, but the UEFI only reports the 5 more generic ones (ODD, LAN, HDD, USB, ...)17:48
daftykinsBenBE: wow that was a delay from... yesterday? :) or Sunday? what brand is it?17:49
BenBEdaftykins: Disabling the Windows Boot Manager specific entry in efibootmgr (-b -A) temporarily helps, until Windows (unknown why) re-enables it. The Ubuntu-Entry (Grub 2 EFI) only comes after; trying to change the priority here doesn't show any effects.17:49

xangua!minimal | pystar89: if what you want is to install only what you need/want in ubuntu, consider using the minimal iso18:59
ubottupystar89: if what you want is to install only what you need/want in ubuntu, consider using the minimal iso: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD18:59

gauceri'm using xubuntu 14.04.2. I don't know why, but i installed gnome3 from ppa. After i purged it and now theme settings crash19:24
tankenmateyeah, it's a PS/2 keyboard then19:24
gauceri tried to reinstall it19:24
tankenmatenoah: # xinput test 1019:25
tankenmatenoah: then then type Fn-F1019:26
tankenmatenoah: and see if it registers any input19:26
ubonegaucer: see man page of pkg manager, look for a way to remove unneeded pkg installed as dependancies19:26
noahtankenmate: nothing. Strangley, just F10 works. And Fn-F9 works.19:26
ubonegaucer: or check config files and remove all gnome 3 confs19:27
tankenmatenoah: it could be either a fault in the keyboard, the keyboard driver, or even the BIOS19:27
noahtankenmate: so what do you suggest?19:28

ubonesl33k_: do  inxi -F  in terminal19:33
noahtankenmate: that's ok. it still didn't catch anything19:33
tankenmatenoah: if Fn-F10 isn't responding then even the kernel driver isn't sending the event; this means either that the hardware refuses to provide an event or it is being trapped by the BIOS / ACPI19:33

jamie_ubone: the pull up is there and when i pull it up the password entry is there but it either dosnt type some of the letters... or when it does it will not accept the password19:36
noahtankenmate: does it send a weird code at boot (e.g. when I press up ad buut I get something like >D]]19:36
tankenmatenoah: you could make a guess as to the cause by checking the hardware interrupts while pressing Fn-F10 rapidly19:36
noahtankenmate: I just though of something.19:37
ubonesl33k_: you have intel gpu, but you could set your cpu governor to conservative to keep frequencies on low and hence temp too19:38
uboneidk intel gpu19:38
noahtankenmate: my up key sticks whenever my computer is turned on so I have to press space to stop it. I'm pretty sure the volume key still worked after that but could this be the issue?19:38

tankenmatenoah: $ watch -n 1 "cat /proc/interrupts | egrep 8042"19:39

JDAIIItankenmate, unfortunately I get no choice on this. We already use azure for other windows servers and they are not going to let me change. If only I were in charge19:57

fahadashjamie_, Check the third post in this thread. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/how-restart-bluez-daemon-712095/20:38
silentnewbEriC^^ Bashing-om i can try online in my colleges, but hwat i have to do with boot-repair?20:38
EriC^^silentnewb, nevermind boot-repair20:38
OerHeksnoah123, most logical let kubuntu instller partition the free space20:38
EriC^^boot the live usb and tell us when it's booted20:38
jamie_fahadash: thanks... its working now20:40

fahadashjamie_, What worked? Would you like to share?20:41
noah123OerHeks: Should the swap partition be logical?20:42
jamie_fahadash: /etc/init.d/bluetooth  restart20:43
fahadashawesome20:43
silentnewbEriC^^ okay, i will looking forward for it, thank you guys Bashing-om noah20:43
EriC^^silentnewb, you don't need an internet connection to fix it20:44
noahmg123EriC^^, silentnewb, yeah. sorry for the confusion. u don't need boot-repair20:45
Thehello20:46
EriC^^silentnewb, you won't be messing with any partition stuff, just replacing a boot file with another, if windows doesn't boot you can just boot the live usb again and replace them back, no harm done20:47
EriC^^silentnewb, it's just a normal file20:48
silentnewbEriC^^ can you please give me the commands? so i can do it later?20:48
silentnewbhow to change the uefi file20:49
EriC^^silentnewb, you need to mount the efi partition and stuff..20:49
EriC^^silentnewb, you could try booting into ubuntu by holding shift and pressing restart in windows, if you get an option that says other devices or something click it and it might list ubuntu20:49
EriC^^that way you wouldn't have to mount the efi partition and you'd just be in ubuntu as you would usually20:50
EriC^^nevermind20:51
jamie_fahadash: thanks for your help20:52
silentnewbso what i have to do? do i need to use live usb or boot to other device from win 8.1 only? EriC^^20:53
silentnewbsorry i kind of confusing here XD20:53
EriC^^silentnewb, once you boot the live usb, type sudo blkid | grep vfat, you'll get a list of partitions20:53
EriC^^nevermind the windows thing20:53
EriC^^if it doesn't boot you'd need a live usb to get win back so20:54
EriC^^anyways if you have 1 partition listed, then get it's name /dev/sda1 maybe and type sudo mount /dev/sda1/mnt20:55
EriC^^silentnewb, if you have a bunch of partitions check the label, it might say EFI partition, that's the one you want20:55
joshumaxSorry for reposing this on #ubuntu, but #upstart seemed pretty dead...I had a question regarding the future of upstart and upstart maintenance/security patches... Now that systemd is replacing upstart on Ubuntu, will the Upstart team still maintain Upstart for the foreseeable future?20:56
The_kidhey20:56
joshumaxs/reposing/reposting/20:57
silentnewbokay, Eric^^ then what to do with the EFI partitions that i found?20:57
helousing "Network" to configure my proxy settings, there isn't a field for username and password20:58
helosurely i can set proxy settings without editing a bunch of config files like Internet Man says20:58
EriC^^silentnewb, you mount the EFI partition then type cp /mnt/boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi /mnt/boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi.backup21:01
EriC^^silentnewb, sorry, sudo cp /mnt/boot/efi......21:01
EriC^^silentnewb, that will make a backup copy of the file in case you need to restore it21:01

eikon81gDoes anyone have tips on optimizing youtube playback? I am using firefox and the nvidia drivers for my machine. Some videos seem choppy..21:04
akkadjoshumax: someone put a wrong distro source in there and now it's hosed for adding new packages21:05
joshumaxWas it from a ppa?21:05

silentnewbokay Eric^^ then what to do after cp commands?21:05
akkadbasically it wanted  to update everything21:05
akkadpages of  netcat-openbsd : Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7) but it is not going to be installed21:05
EriC^^silentnewb, copy and rename the shimx64.efi file, sudo cp /mnt/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi21:06
joshumax!ubottu ppa-purge21:06
joshumaxI think I did that wrong...21:06
eikon81g!ppa-purge21:06
ubottuTo disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html21:06
joshumaxThanks21:06
eikon81gnp21:06
EriC^^silentnewb, sometimes you have to also backup and then replace /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi , but try bootx64.efi first and see how it goes21:07
akkadthe error is https://gist.github.com/61166d4a48362100d27321:07
Bashing-ommonojin: Intel supports us fully, should work out-of-the-box. Quick verification is to boot a ubuntu liveDVD(usb) .. If all works in the "live" environment, great chance will also work in the install.21:07

akkadwell atm I can't install anything21:07
joshumaxit looks like your "apt-get -f install" is safe *enough*21:08
EriC^^silentnewb, if you need to revert back do sudo cp /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi.backup /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi21:08
monojinBashing-om: As I suspected. I've actually had Ubuntu MATE installed for two weeks but wanted to make sure ; )21:08
joshumaxBut I'd *really* do a ppa-purge afterwards21:09
Bashing-ommonojin: Good deal . Welcome to our world .21:09
silentnewbEric^^ sorry if this unrelated, but i already tried to change boot path from the windows itself,21:09
silentnewbwith commands bcdedit /set "{bootmgr}" path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi21:09
EriC^^this might work21:09
silentnewbbut nothing happened :(21:09

EriC^^silentnewb, oh btw21:13
EriC^^almsot forgot :>21:13
EriC^^silentnewb, you need to let grub know where the new windows efi file is, so you can boot into windows from grub21:13
EriC^^silentnewb, ?21:14
silentnewbEric^^ okay, what should i do ? update grub?21:14
EriC^^silentnewb, type locate 20microsoft21:15
EriC^^it's /usr/lib/os-prober/mount/efi/20microsoft i think ( i'm not on ubuntu right now so i can't check )21:16
sparasiteSomeone here can help me ...?21:17
silentnewbwhat commands EriC^^ from terminal to locate 20microsoft21:17
sparasitePlease, I have been trying for a lot of days now, if not weeks ...21:17
EriC^^silentnewb, then type sudo nano /usr/lib/os-prober/mount/efi/20microsoft ( or whatever you get from the locate command ) and change bootx64.efi to bootx64.efi.backup & bootmgfw.efi to bootmgfw.efi.backup21:17
ndumontsparasite, what's  your problem ?21:17
guntbertsparasite: ask your question - all in one line21:18
sparasiteSure, one moment please!21:18
EriC^^silentnewb, you might not need to do this if you don't change bootmgfw.efi , if you only change bootx64.efi give it a go and if you get grub and windows boots then nevermind, if it doesn't check that file for bootx64.efi and replace it with bootx64.efi.backup21:18
sparasiteWell, I wanna install Kubuntu 14.04.2 using Dual Boot with Windows 7. I dont know ANYTHING but I have created unallocated space, 80 GB21:19
EriC^^silentnewb, oh wait, you have to change that file in ubuntu, not the live usb, so if you boot into ubuntu fine and it doesn't boot windows then do that there21:19
sparasiteI know I need to create a swap partition and so on, but I dont know what File System, Beginning or End, Mount Point etc.21:19
EriC^^then run sudo update-grub21:19
supermansparasite, you miss only swap or others too?21:20
noahmg123sparasite: swaps aren needed but very much encouraged.21:20
noahmg123aren't*21:20
sparasiteYeah21:20
sparasiteCan you help me_21:20
sparasiteConfigure everything etc.21:20
sparasiteI dont understand the installation ... I am new to this21:21
silentnewbokay, i'll tried restart windows first to check i can boot into ubuntu EriC^^ if i cant booted then use live usb is that okay21:21
supermansparasite, how many RAM installed on your pc?21:21
sparasitesuperman: 4 GB21:21
EriC^^silentnewb, i'd do it from the live usb, if you want to check ubuntu that's fine but copy the files from the live usb21:22
sparasitesuperman: can we take it in PM so I can keep all information?21:22
EriC^^you dont want to copy the files have it not boot then put the live usb and it doesn't work or for some reason you can't mount the efi partition21:22

benthanyone know why rpcbind needs to run on nfs *clients*?21:33
tankenmatebenth: in case you are using secure nfs so the client and the server can sync their time deltas21:34
RudeViperHow do I make the operating system offer me a choice of desktop environments on boot - I have xfce - lxde and unity installed - but by default it is booting into xfce and I want to be able to use the other two for a bit to see if I can track down some issues to see if the are DE related or Ubuntu related - google searching isn't producing any definitive answers21:35
benthtankenmate: oh interesting - do you know where i can learn more about that?21:35
tankenmatebenth: for NFSv4 I suspect it is used for ID mappings, but i'd need to check21:35
tankenmatebenth: there was a bound text published by Sun in 1994 or 1995 about Secure RPC / Secure NFS, but it has been over 20 years since I read it so I can't remember the title21:36
Bashing-omRudeViper: In the sign-in box, upper right corner is the ubuntu icon, click on it for a drop down of all the DEs that are installed .21:36

maysarak1l_: It's grub, I didn't even reinstall it when I was trying Arch. I'll reboot again.22:03
k1l_Exagone313: yes, its just a warning, not an error22:03
k1l_maysara: well, arch might have installed its own grub or something other. so maybe you need to run that one if to let it check the new ubuntu kernels. but that would be a task for the arch support then.22:04
InHisName1When I do: sudo apt-get -f install   I get request to add samba-libs  then when it tries, I get errors (1) returned by the deb.   I've changed printers and the old settings are useless. I'd just as soon purge samba and start all over for the new printer. So where to start ?22:05

_alfalfawhere does rsync keep its logfile ?22:36
_alfalfaim getting rsync dying with code 12 want to look at the log22:36
rypervenche_alfalfa: 12     Error in rsync protocol data stream22:41
_alfalfa>22:42
_alfalfayes trying to find where the log file is kept22:42
rypervenche_alfalfa: From where and to where are you rsyncing?22:43
_alfalfafrom a amazon ec2 instance to my laptop , im on a public wifi22:44
_alfalfathe public wifi could be killing the connection i guess22:45
_alfalfait would make sense however i havent seen them do that before22:45
_alfalfaanyway i cant find the log file and i cant find the config file for rsync on the ec2 instance22:45
bekksrsync doesn keep any logs unless you manuell create them.22:45
_alfalfai looked in /etc ... its not there, and i dont see info about where they are in the man page so far22:45
bekks*manually even22:45
_alfalfaoh really ? ic22:45
bekksAnd rsync doesnt have a config file as well, until you run a dedicated rsync server.22:46
_alfalfai got 56 percent of the file, lost my c onnection now it dies every time i try to resume the download22:46
=== sideonee is now known as sideone
bekksI doesnt die, it has to check the hash on both sides. That takes some time.22:47
_alfalfai dont know what im doing .. i take it you dont need a dedicated server to rsync remotely like this22:50
_alfalfai upgraded so im using the same protocl veresion remote and local, no help22:50
_alfalfamaybe i should try connecting using a different port, if the wifi is killing it that might trick it22:50
_alfalfahas anyone ever experienced rsync failing on attempt to continue a transfer like this ?22:50
bekks6s patience.22:51
bekks_alfalfa: How does rsync "fail" actually?22:52
_alfalfainflate returned -3 (0 bytes)22:53
_alfalfarsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at token.c(557) [receiver=3.1.1]22:53

_alfalfarsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [generator=3.1.1]22:53
_alfalfawhen i try to resume the transfer it gets the file list, gets to the point where it would be donwloading additional data and then failes it seems22:53
rypervenche_alfalfa: What is the command you're running?22:54
_alfalfa/opt/local/bin/rsync -zvr --partial --progress --rsh=ssh ubuntu@myserver.com:/mnt/ex/home/ubuntu/transmission/Downloads/fa .22:55
bekksomit the --rsh=ssh22:55
_alfalfahm ... i guess its worth a try22:56
_alfalfaive always donw it using ssh however22:56
bekksAnd why do you use a nonstandard rsync?22:56
_alfalfamy server probably wont accept the conn except via ssh22:56
bekksrsync uses ssh as default.22:56
_alfalfabecause i installed a more recent version after i had tehese problems22:56
_alfalfait was using protocol version 29 ... /usr/local/bin or wheterver22:57
bekksJust use the distro shipped one please.22:57
_alfalfaso i port installed rsync22:57
bekks /usr/bin/rsync22:57
bekksport installed?22:57
_alfalfaas i said, both versions have the same problem22:57
bekksThats no Ubuntu then.22:57
_alfalfathe remote system is ubuntu22:57
rypervenche_alfalfa: does a "fa" file exist in your working directory?22:57
_alfalfaas i said, ec2 instanc22:57
k1l_/opt/local/bin/rsync ?  what ubuntu is that at all?22:57
bekksSounds lieke BSD or OSX.22:57
bekks*like22:57
_alfalfai said remote system is ubuntu, an amazon ec2 instance22:58
_alfalfarypervenche, yes it does the file is 1/2 there22:58
bekks_alfalfa: and your non-Ubuntu client is causing issues :)22:58
rypervenche_alfalfa: what OS is the client?22:58
_alfalfamaybe, ive downloaded many files this way .. its possible this is the largest im not sure, its 2 gig .. client is OS X22:59
_alfalfaim trying it without the --rsh=ssh .. dbout it will help tho22:59
_alfalfaas u said it uses ssh anyway22:59
_alfalfayup same problem23:00
bekks_alfalfa: Of course, because your client is the issue.23:00
_alfalfamaybe there is an error int he partial file .. i guess ill delete it and retry23:00
_alfalfais there another option you can suggest to keep some of the data already downloaded ?23:00
_alfalfais there a way to tell it to rebuild any metadata it has calculated ?23:00
bekksThere is no such thing as calculated metadata.23:01
_alfalfaknow a handy command to truncate the file ?23:01
_alfalfamaybe if i chop off the last 10 meg or something that will help23:01
bekks"split"23:01
_alfalfai.e. if the last of the data got corrupted23:01
rypervenche_alfalfa: Normally I would use --inplace to continie on large files, but that doeant seem to be the case here. Try removimg/moving the file and starting again?23:01
=== rerst is now known as clmclm
_alfalfarypervenche, why not try adding --implace ?23:03
rypervenchetry it23:03
_alfalfait doesnt know option --implace23:03
rypervencheinplace not implace23:04
rypervenche_alfalfa: also, what does . expand to? where are you when you run the command?23:05
_alfalfaok ill try inplace thanks23:05
cyborgcygnus#swap23:05
_alfalfai just truncated it down to a gig23:05
_alfalfasee if that helps23:05
cyborgcygnusubottu #swap23:05
ubottuswap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info23:05
_alfalfai wouldnt be surprised if the wifi is kiling the conn after detecting i downloaded over a gig23:06
_alfalfaaltho i didnt knwo they were set up to do that .. thi si s in a starbucks23:06
rypervencheoh....23:06
_alfalfatruncating to 1 gig seems to have helped23:06
_alfalfaif it dies again ill start to wonder if i exhaused the file system23:07

CountryfiedLinuxI almost misspelled it as kurrent haha :P23:09
daftykinsCountryfiedLinux: you mean like 14.10 ? you can't downgrade23:09
drdozerdaftykins, it's not for security, it's so that I can automate things like setting up ssh tunnels into my laptop from my server whenever it is alive at home23:09
daftykinsoh just the package. not familiar with it23:09
_alfalfayay that may have fixed it, i now i have gotten more data than i had originally so its past the old trouble spot (rsync)23:09
CountryfiedLinuxNo daftykins I mean 14.04. Kdenlive is buggy in 14.10 and 15.04.23:10
_alfalfaso i guess we now know u get a weird rsync continue problem that wont go away, use truncate to remove some bytes from the end23:10
daftykinsCountryfiedLinux: you can't use packages from other versions, if your base distro is newer23:10
daftykinsit'll break23:10
_alfalfawhich is really odd that has to be a bug in rsync it shouldnt write corrupted data like that23:10
CountryfiedLinuxOk thanks daftykins I guess I'll revert back to LTS if I can't fix this issue.23:11
_alfalfait has enough check sums that should almost neve rhappen23:11
outlaw-666I need help ... im trying to find out a command line, to force USB's to get recognized. Can anyone help me please ????23:12
daftykinsoutlaw-666: you can't force them, either the kernel sees them or it doesn't23:14
daftykinsrun "dmesg | tail" and if you don't see a drive connected, try changing ports23:14
outlaw-666what was that command daftykins ?23:17
_alfalfagood thing i got rsync to work i already bout the vodka shot to drink while watching this dvd23:17
outlaw-666it gave me a lot of errors23:17
lasdam1hi all. I'm stuck in recovery mode because when I try to boot up normally I get stuck in low graphics mode just loading indefinitely. by pressing ESC I noticed the log was full of "start network manager OK", like at least 20 entries of that, and also Gnome Manager OK was entered twice.23:18
lasdam1all I think I did and could find that I did before this happened was remove selinux which I installed before and which did not cause this problem, as I rebooted several times without problems. I've opened up all top 10 entries from google and followed the various instructions, like re-install intel drivers, add some different repository,23:18
lasdam1reinstall ubuntu-desktop, reinstall gdm, and more. I'm basically out of ideas.23:18
_alfalfamaybe outlaw-666  jus tneeds to mount the usb device23:18
outlaw-666i did the lsusb ...23:19
outlaw-666and i think it showed me the usb i need23:19
outlaw-666but ... im not sure23:19
outlaw-666and only in that list23:19
_alfalfaoutlaw-666, oh well im not an expert but if it shows up on lsusb maybe you just need to mount it23:21
_alfalfawhat kind of file system is on the usb23:21
_alfalfasome usb devices you can just mount as a file system23:21
_alfalfawhat kind of device is it ?23:21
outlaw-666a buch of files23:21
outlaw-666its a SD card23:21
_alfalfawhat did you use to put the files on it ?23:21
_alfalfajust as a memory stick in another comptuer ?23:22
_alfalfacant u type faster thnat that im trying to help here23:22
_alfalfacant u type faster thnat that im trying to help here23:22
daftykinsoutlaw-666: do this then if it's plugged in, "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"23:22
_alfalfaim p inging u like  crazy23:22
_alfalfaif u added files to it using a computer it could be formatted ms fat or ext2 i think23:23
teward_alfalfa: you should calm down and have a little bit of patience.23:23
outlaw-666daftykins, it did not recognize it23:23
outlaw-666it showed me my USB hdd23:24
daftykinsoutlaw-666: then either your card reader doesn't work or it's just not showing up23:24
outlaw-666but it did not show me my sd card23:24
outlaw-666yeah, if i place it on my cell phone, it says it needs format23:24
_alfalfai thought you said it showed via lsusb23:24
outlaw-666but im trying to recover any file on it23:24
daftykinswell you should see the card listed at all, with "dmesg | tail" after plugging it in23:25
daftykinsunplug it, run "dmesg | tail | pastebinit" then plug it in and repeat that command23:25
daftykinslet us see the difference23:25
outlaw-666the only place i see it is here23:25

daftykinsi'd probably try to 'dd' up the card onto disk then try testdisk but i don't know if either are going to help23:36
Cipher45Can I just move stuff from /usr/local/bin to /usr/bin with a simple mv command?23:36
outlaw-666try what daftykins  ?23:36
outlaw-666O.o23:36
bekksCipher45: technically, you can - practically, you will break things.23:36
Cipher45bekks, I'm trying to set something up as a daemon. How would I move it otherwise?23:37
daftykinsbekks: what would you say about 'dd' and testdisk? worth a shot?23:37
bekksdaftykins: Yeah, worth a try.23:38
bekksCipher45: Then why dont yu setup the daemon but move stuff instead?23:38

sudormrfdaftykins, is there a way to disable all USB ports in Ubuntu?23:39
daftykinsoutlaw-666: you got that much space free?23:39
daftykinssudormrf: ask the channel not me23:39
outlaw-666on the HDD ? yeah23:39
sudormrfis there a way to disable all USB ports in Ubuntu?23:40
sudormrfafter GRUB23:40
daftykinsoutlaw-666: image up the card as it is right now then, to avoid any further breakage. run "sudo dd if=/dev/sdc of=/home/username/cardimage bs=2M"23:40
Cipher45bekks, Sorry I'm a little confused. I can't setup the daemon because when I move the files it will break things?23:40
sudormrfthink I found it23:41

outlaw-666i copy pasted that .. i guess it was not how it was done23:42

daftykinsoutlaw-666: why don't you just *re-read* my messages?23:42
outlaw-666im giving u my most attention23:43
daftykinsand you're asking me to repeat things which are on your screen? i don't get it23:43
Cipher45bekks, Because I'm using an init.d from the programs website. It assumes the program will be in /usr/bin. I may just move it and see what happens. What should I expect to break?23:43
outlaw-666you asked me if i had the card space free on my hdd, i said yes23:43
bekksCipher45: Fix that script instead.23:43
outlaw-666and you told me that we were going to do something in order to prevent further breakage23:43
daftykinsoutlaw-666: read my message23:44
outlaw-666the last one ?23:44
outlaw-666where u told me to run a command ?23:44
daftykinsthe one with the command in it.23:44
outlaw-666yeah, i copied it and pasted it on terminal23:44
Cipher45bekks, I'll try that. Thanks for the help!23:44
outlaw-666nothing happened, error23:44
daftykinswhich was it? either an error or nothing happened23:45
sudormrfgarrettr, I was thinking something along the lines of "echo "blacklist usb-storage" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf" except usb-storage would be the USB ports23:45

outlaw-666sorry daftykins :(23:49

Arrickhey all, I am trying to get my max resolution onto the hp z200 sff I just put xubuntu on, and it has an intel vga card capable of 1680x1050... Howver, the max resolution showing up is 1024x768.. I ran gtf 1680 1050 60.00 and I get the following line # 1680x1050 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 65.22 kHz; pclk: 147.14 MHz Modeline "1680x1050_60.00"  147.14  1680 1784 1968 2256  1050 1051 1054 1087  -HSync +Vsyncso... I ran xrandr  --newmode "1680x1050_60.00"  123:54
Arrick47.14  1680 1784 1968 2256  1050 1051 1054 1087  -HSync +Vsync and it gives me an error saying X Error of failed request:  BadName (named color or font does not exist)23:54
Yukendaftykins: So, anyway I can access a WPA network, or am I screwed?23:54
daftykinsYuken: try looking up a WPA supplicant guide for it, otherwise it's game over23:55
Yukendaftykins: That isn't installed, XD.23:55
daftykinsoutlaw-666: i thought you wanted the data on it...23:55
ArrickI had gotten the resolution to work in ubuntu but I couldnt get the resolution to stick23:55
Yukendaftykins: Do you think I could connect it directly to this PC, download the wpa-supplicant package, and copy it over? (Connect via ethernet)23:58
Yukendaftykins: If so, how?23:58
outlaw-666daftykins, thanks anyway man23:58
outlaw-666sorry i did something wrong :(23:58
