| tiox | Hey guys. Flash from Ubuntu's repos seems really freakin' laggy when in full-screen, and I read it had something to do with lack of hardware acceleration in the non-Windows builds? | 01:30 |
| tiox | Is there a third-party PPA that has a better / more featured version available? | 01:31 |
| vixterra | flash for linux hasn't been supported for like two years tiox | 01:32 |
| vixterra | you're either stuck with a really old version or using chrome's build in flash | 01:32 |
| tiox | Stuck with an old version then I guess. | 01:33 |
| tiox | That's super-lame, considering Flash works way better than HTML5 for me. | 01:34 |
| tiox | Trust me, I wish I could ditch Flash, but video runs way better on my PC using it vs. HTML5 no matter what OS I am on. | 01:35 |

| Craigwell | i'm going to take another crack at clonezilla. Anyone familiar enough with it to help me pull this off, as far as command line parameters go? | 01:57 |
| Craigwell | cloning a disk with the following: linux swap, ext4 (ubuntu 14.04 boot), ntfs (win 7 home premium 64 boot) upsizing to larger drive | 01:59 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: screw clonezilla | 02:01 |
| === khisanth__ is now known as Khisanth | ||
| Craigwell | EriC^^, What would you prefer? | 02:03 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: i was thinking about something but i don't know anymore, i think it won't work | 02:03 |
| EriC^^ | if you dd it as it is, and it's smaller on the new drive and then resize it with gparted, so it doesn't mess up windows, but i guess when you dd it the partition table just extends to where it was and you can't extend the individual partitions beyond that? | 02:04 |
| Craigwell | i haven't tried dd yet | 02:05 |
| EriC^^ | i guess it's the same thing, when you used clonezilla earlier you ended up with the same size as the smaller disk right? | 02:06 |
| Craigwell | the only hint of the error i've seen refers to sector info in mbr, conflicting with start sector of partition on new drive, which is understandable | 02:06 |
| Craigwell | i did yes | 02:06 |
| EriC^^ | maybe you could modify the partition table so that it is larger, and shows the unallocated free space? | 02:07 |
| EriC^^ | what did it look like before? like 100gb disk, and partition table extends over 40gb and it didn't mention unallocated space 60gb? | 02:07 |
| Craigwell | EriC^^, I have been able to resize the file system successfully and mount | 02:08 |
| Craigwell | i don't seem to have an issue getting the partitions to size up proportionally and expand file systems | 02:09 |
| Craigwell | seems to be a conflict in mbr cloned info vs what fdisk reports sector wise | 02:09 |
| EriC^^ | then why did windows not work? | 02:09 |
| Craigwell | i tried windows boot disk repair, bootrec.exe /fixmbr and all that, it reports sucessful, but no change | 02:10 |
| Craigwell | i'm convinced one of the clonezilla parameters will affect the outcome, I just don't know what one | 02:10 |
| EriC^^ | http://clonezilla.org/show-live-doc-content.php?topic=clonezilla-live/doc/03_Disk_to_disk_clone | 02:11 |
| EriC^^ | By deafult, Clonezilla will clone the "same" size of source disk to target disk. i.e. in this example, only 8 GB will be cloned to target disk, so the rest of 12 GB on the destination disk will be unallocated. If you want to make use all of the target disk size, remember to enter "Expert" mode and choose option "-k1". | 02:13 |
| EriC^^ | it's on that website | 02:13 |
| Craigwell | yes, I did do that, along with -r to resize filesystems | 02:14 |
| Craigwell | I'm starting to think my issues involve how i'm handling mbr / grub etc | 02:15 |
| Craigwell | ...but i will read around on that site | 02:16 |
| Craigwell | thank you for pointing it out, i may find my solution there | 02:16 |
| Craigwell | sometime i have blinders on for some reason | 02:16 |
| Craigwell | i've doubled down my effort though, have my other laptop out now so i can take the time to try and ensure the next attempt is the last! | 02:17 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: hmm, there's no -k1 option http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/doc/03_Disk_to_disk_clone/advanced/05-advanced-param.php | 02:21 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: maybe they meant q1? | 02:21 |
| EriC^^ | sector-by-sector copy | 02:22 |
| EriC^^ | oh i see it later in the page | 02:22 |

| Craigwell | EriC^^, yes to q1, assumed that's what you meant. MBR yes | 02:27 |
| Craigwell | I'm reading on that page as well | 02:28 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: it says somewhere that sometimes if you resize windows it won't boot properly unless you reboot into it before installing ubuntu | 02:28 |

| sallu | Ubuntu software center is not downloading anything | 02:29 |
| Craigwell | sallu, you say you just installed.. have you ran software update yet? | 02:29 |
| Craigwell | sallu, might be part of the issue | 02:29 |
| sallu | Do u guys think . Is it any issue with servers | 02:29 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: maybe you can have windows control the bootloader, then clone the disk, then boot into it a couple times then reinstall grub | 02:29 |

| Craigwell | sallu, "software updater" that is | 02:30 |
| EriC^^ | sallu: try sudo apt-get update | 02:30 |

| sallu | Craigwell yeah software updates begin automatically when i was asked to choose option to yes | 02:30 |
| sallu | Terminal k | 02:30 |
| Craigwell | sallu, i'm with EriC^^ , try terminal | 02:30 |
| sallu | Ok | 02:31 |
| Craigwell | it should be about 250 -300 mb of updates, assuming 14.04 | 02:31 |
| sallu | Craig exactly it was around 250 | 02:31 |
| sallu | I already did that updates and then restarted | 02:32 |
| sallu | Where is terminal | 02:32 |
| Craigwell | sallu, ctrl+alt+t | 02:32 |
| Craigwell | or type it in dash, icon top left corner | 02:32 |

| Craigwell | without quotes | 02:33 |
| Craigwell | enter password, see what comes back | 02:33 |
| sallu | Craig i did that | 02:34 |
| Craigwell | if it's updated, then try a reboot and try software center again. I just used it myself about 20 minutes ago, so I don't think it's a ubuntu server issue lol | 02:34 |
| sallu | Mostly failed to fetch | 02:34 |
| sallu | May be our regional server issue | 02:34 |
| Craigwell | i just tried a couple things in mine again, seemed to work | 02:34 |
| Craigwell | it could be. not sure how you would go about mapping to another server | 02:35 |
| Craigwell | have you googled about it? | 02:35 |
| Craigwell | or search engine of your choice, of course | 02:35 |
| sallu | i am going to system setting then software & updates | 02:35 |

| Craigwell | I might try changing to windows bootloader before clone though, that seems interesting | 02:41 |

| EriC^^ | Craigwell: i'm reading here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreUbuntu/XP/Vista/7Bootloader | 02:43 |

| sallu | Be right back | 02:43 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: what did it say when it tried to load windows? | 02:45 |
| Craigwell | EriC^^, says nothing, | 02:46 |
| Craigwell | blinking cursor upper left immediately | 02:46 |
| Craigwell | no splash etc | 02:46 |
| Craigwell | i did try boot repair | 02:46 |
| docmur | I mounted a zfs volumn as a passthrough into my VM, I have the fileshare mounted at /mnt/mxtemp, but when I try to copy from it I get premission denied, even as the root user | 02:47 |

| reisio | hrmmm | 02:48 |
| reisio | zfs, vm | 02:48 |
| reisio | me smells silly | 02:48 |
| EriC^^ | Craigwell: did you try pressing f8 immediately? | 02:49 |
| Craigwell | yes, it doesn't even get that far | 02:49 |
| docmur | Well the host has a zfs tank and in this tank is a folder I need to copy to the vm, so I mounted the zfs fileshare inside the vm and mounted it to /mnt/mxtemp | 02:49 |
| Craigwell | as soon as option pressed in grub, or after boot screen, it accesses hd for a split second, and then - blinking cursor and no other action | 02:49 |

| Craigwell | turning off "grub install" parameter, | 02:51 |

| Craigwell | but i don't know what " sfdisk uses chs of hard drive from edd (for non-grub boot loader) is all about | 02:52 |
| Craigwell | think i'll turn that off | 02:52 |
| Craigwell | i think if i go -q1, that might bring dd into it. | 02:53 |
| Craigwell | i can also tell it to NOT clone boot loader, | 02:53 |

| chipmadness | Guys i have a quick question. I am running the new Ubuntu 15 (Kernel 3.9 *I think*) and back in Ubuntu 14, i had video drivers, but now when i go into additional drivers, my wireless card is only there. No video drivers. does the new kernel do something with the video? | 03:51 |

| Craigwell | http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/ | 03:57 |
| Craigwell | i believe it will work for you | 03:58 |
| sallu | AnyOne here | 03:58 |
| Craigwell | yup. still here | 03:59 |
| sallu | i am having serious issues ubuntu | 03:59 |
| reisio | nope | 03:59 |
| sallu | craig thanks GOd | 03:59 |
| sallu | reisio thanks | 03:59 |
| sallu | i was about to make some changes to grub 2 | 03:59 |
| sallu | actually i made some changes | 03:59 |
| sallu | but now i am afraid i am having some issues in the grub. i am so much afraid of not restarting the laptop | 04:00 |
| reisio | nothing to be afraid of | 04:00 |
| reisio | can fix most anything from the live OS | 04:00 |
| sallu | because if i restart and something wrong in the grub then i will not be able to use windows or ubuntu anyway | 04:00 |
| reisio | sure you will, after you fix it | 04:01 |
| sallu | reisio ok i tell you what i did | 04:01 |
| neurot | grub customizer a see if it all looks good | 04:02 |
| sallu | reisio, actually i was searching the option of having windows 7 by default selected | 04:02 |
| sallu | and i saw a post who says to make changes | 04:02 |
| Craigwell | hahah | 04:03 |
| sallu | sudo update-grub | 04:03 |
| sallu | sudo gedit /etc/default/grub | 04:03 |
| Craigwell | sallu: before you do anything, make sure you have a liveusb and know how to boot from it | 04:03 |
| Craigwell | * anything else | 04:03 |
| sallu | GRUB_DEFAULT=”Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda1″ | 04:03 |
| sallu | Craigwell, yeah definetly . you reminded me. thanks. actually i installed ubuntu few hours ago from flash drive. i still have that one | 04:04 |
| sallu | Craigwell, did you see that. only three commands to make few changes to grub. do you think i might have the chance of corrupt grub now? | 04:05 |
| Craigwell | always a chance, but the restore is very easy | 04:06 |
| Craigwell | it's not a big deal. | 04:06 |
| Craigwell | hang on a sec | 04:06 |
| sallu | i am afraid so | 04:06 |
| Craigwell | this will work from liveusb: | 04:07 |
| Craigwell | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 04:07 |
| Craigwell | write down that link | 04:07 |
| Craigwell | if you reboot and grub doesnt work, use the liveusb and follow those commands to install boot-repair | 04:08 |
| sallu | Craigwell, from the flash drive i installed ubuntu few hours ago. do you refer this to as Live USB too? right? | 04:08 |
| Craigwell | takes only a couple minutes | 04:08 |
| Craigwell | sallu: correct | 04:08 |
| sallu | ahan | 04:08 |
| Craigwell | flash drive is the liveusb yes | 04:08 |
| sallu | Craigwell, i am going to again run the command | 04:08 |
| sallu | sudo update-grub | 04:09 |
| * Craigwell wishes grub was his only problem | 04:09 | |
| Craigwell | my clone almost finished. | 04:09 |
| sallu | that was the error /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 6: /etc/default/grub: Syntax error: "(" unexpected | 04:10 |
| sallu | oh my God | 04:10 |
| Craigwell | didn't like the parenthesis? | 04:11 |
| Craigwell | i didn't bother looking up the syntax of your changes lol | 04:11 |
| reisio | Craigwell: makes me want to watch sixth day | 04:11 |

| Craigwell | reisio, hahaha | 04:12 |
| Craigwell | did you see this ? allow my doppelganger to present this image: | 04:13 |
| sallu | this error was not coming before running GRUB_DEFAULT=”Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda1″ | 04:13 |

| Craigwell | reisio, i cloned the computer, instead of the hd :-( | 04:13 |
| sallu | i already saw the link of Craigwell regarding boot repair | 04:14 |
| sallu | do you think i should restart :( | 04:14 |
| reisio | dunno what you're even saying :p | 04:14 |
| reisio | just stop | 04:14 |
| Craigwell | yes sallu, if in doubt, restart. if it doesn't work, boot from flash drive and boot-repair. you can google it | 04:14 |
| sallu | ok i do it | 04:15 |
| Craigwell | or write down that link i posted to you above | 04:15 |

| bagginsDK | Hello, how can i disable all these ads on dash? | 05:25 |
| ARYAN1488 | xrmx56: what would you like helo with? | 05:25 |
| ARYAN1488 | help* | 05:25 |
| xrmx56 | I downloaded the SteamOS beta installer and have a FAT32 stick, then I run this command in my downloads folder: unzip SteamOSInstaller.zip -d /dev/sdb1 | 05:26 |
| xrmx56 | and receive this error: "checkir: cannot create extraction directory: /dev/sdb1 File exists" | 05:27 |
| xrmx56 | /dev/sdb1 is my USB | 05:27 |
| xrmx56 | Not sure how to google this problem or where to go next | 05:27 |
| dipatiukur35 | hi | 05:28 |
| xrmx56 | @bagginsDK: check out: http://lifehacker.com/5953180/how-to-remove-amazon-ads-from-ubuntu-1210 | 05:28 |

| bagginsDK | Will it remove also google drive search? | 05:30 |
| neurot | xrmx56 can you just unzip and drag and drop it into the USB | 05:31 |
| xrmx56 | @neurot great question - I tried extracting to the usb with archive manager, and it seemed to work. But when I tried to boot it said the USB was not bootable | 05:33 |
| xrmx56 | so I'm kind of mystified, I would think this would be a simple USB installation | 05:33 |
| neurot | its FAT32-formatted? | 05:33 |
| xrmx56 | Yep, I just reformatted it to be sure. | 05:34 |
| Ben64 | xrmx56: steamos is a distribution, you can't install a distribution on a distribution. you can install steam if you want by opening the ubuntu software center | 05:34 |
| neurot | xrmx56 Do you want steam OS the operating system or steam the program | 05:36 |
| xrmx56 | @ben64, sorry wasn't clear. Using Ubuntu to download SteamOS beta, then put it on a FAT32 stick. Was going to install alongside Ubuntu. But this simple task is proving elusive | 05:36 |
| xrmx56 | @neurot I was going to do SteamOS - there's a cool article in Linux Format on it this month and thought it would be cool to dual boot | 05:36 |
| ARYAN1488 | why would you get steamos? | 05:36 |
| ARYAN1488 | don't support steam they're evil and corrupt | 05:36 |
| neurot | cool | 05:37 |
| Ben64 | xrmx56: then you should find steamos support for that | 05:37 |
| xrmx56 | wait why | 05:37 |
| xrmx56 | @ben64 yeah I think I'm starting to deviate from #ubuntu | 05:37 |
| ARYAN1488 | i've had my account deactivated for no reason | 05:37 |
| ARYAN1488 | i had bought 160 games | 05:37 |
| xrmx56 | ah. well Stallman is "cautiously" for it | 05:37 |
| ARYAN1488 | they're all gone | 05:37 |
| xrmx56 | merde 160 games lost? i would hate it too | 05:37 |
| Ben64 | ARYAN1488: not really on topic here | 05:37 |
| ARYAN1488 | so don't use steam... buy physical games | 05:38 |
| ARYAN1488 | Ben64: we're talking about steam os | 05:38 |
| Ben64 | which isn't on topic here | 05:38 |
| xrmx56 | yeah sorry guys | 05:38 |
| Ben64 | xrmx56: but steamos is basically just a customized version of ubuntu, so i'm not sure why you'd need both? | 05:38 |
| xrmx56 | because I'm addicted to installing linux flavors, basically | 05:39 |
| dipatiukur35 | wow this channel is pretty active | 05:39 |

| yclingid | to completely remove | 05:42 |
| yclingid | thanks you | 05:43 |
| Ben64 | yclingid: sudo apt-get purge wine | 05:43 |
| xrmx56 | never played many games on ubuntu except wesnoth and nethack | 05:43 |
| dipatiukur35 | i'm learning wesnoth atm | 05:44 |
| zefyr | dude, team fortress | 05:44 |
| zefyr | thats my game | 05:44 |
| neurot | yclingid did you install wine from the software Center? | 05:44 |
| yclingid | hi neurot just tried the command line given by Ben64, it works like a charm | 05:44 |
| yclingid | thanks Ben64 | 05:45 |
| dipatiukur35 | i'm actually looking for games that can be played with old hardware | 05:45 |

| neurot | sorry i did not see Ben64 post :-) | 05:46 |
| zefyr | only the video card should be say.... last 5 years | 05:46 |
| dipatiukur35 | i'll stick to wesnoth for now, but i'm still open for suggestions | 05:46 |
| xrmx56 | @dipatiukr35 actually come to think of it, your best bet is the Humble Bundle | 05:47 |
| xrmx56 | They have lots of great games | 05:47 |
| zefyr | i bought a bundle. love that gears game | 05:47 |
| xrmx56 | not native to ubuntu, although I'm not really sure what you mean by that anyway, definitely runs on linux | 05:47 |
| dipatiukur35 | what's humble bundle? | 05:47 |
| dipatiukur35 | a software package? | 05:48 |
| gavmatic | i recently processed a kernel upgrade/ubuntu, and it seems it has caused issue with my LVM crypt swap, as the previous password does not work, is this a known issue? | 05:48 |
| xrmx56 | Humble Bundle groups together a bunch of indy games, and it's usually linux friendly: https://www.humblebundle.com/ | 05:48 |
| zefyr | a bundle of software for a great price. basically what you want to pay | 05:48 |
| zefyr | usually they a a couple of great games in the bundle | 05:48 |

| Seveas | azizLIGHT: I back up everything | 06:24 |
| Seveas | (well, modulo some useless caching bits) | 06:24 |
| anil_ | thogh i didn't understand friend.. | 06:25 |
| azizLIGHT | i think what im asking is what configuration files is the update going to mess with that will prevent a boot. grub.cfg being one of them, are there others? | 06:25 |
| azizLIGHT | ive had problems purging old kernels and not being able to boot | 06:25 |
| azizLIGHT | id rather not go through that again | 06:25 |
| Seveas | anil_: boot windows and shut it down (don't hibernate, don't suspend) | 06:25 |
| oal_ | I've rebooted my computer 10 times now, and it doesn't ever get to the desktop. The screen is black, with a white bare at the top. No mouse pointer or anything. I think it's the Nvidia driver. How can I disable it from a Live USB by accessing my harddrive from there? | 06:27 |
