kittyfirekitty | i have, pressing SHIFT while doing restart from windows menu takes me to trouble shooting, been there read that, no options explicitly list legacy/csm yadda yadda | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
xid | i think they were suggesting running virtual for doing the ISO operations | 00:00 |
xid | rather than using windows tools | 00:00 |
kittyfirekitty | gotta get a bootable linux setup for the system (i.e. the iso things) before i can even try to virtualize it | 00:00 |
krabador | supposing i would run urban terror only in a second monitor ,and only on it, how can i do? | 00:01 |
polyphagia | kittyfirekitty: you're trying to install ubuntu? | 00:02 |
polyphagia | and windows says it's 32 bit? | 00:03 |
kittyfirekitty | i'm trying to boot a live USB | 00:03 |
polyphagia | shift on bootup is related to windows, it's not going to help you | 00:03 |
kittyfirekitty | yes windows is 32 bit version | 00:03 |
polyphagia | ok | 00:03 |
polyphagia | so you burned a 32 bit live usb? | 00:03 |
kittyfirekitty | no i'm downloading it (3 hours remaining) | 00:03 |
polyphagia | oh ok | 00:03 |
kittyfirekitty | the cpu is a x64 | 00:03 |
polyphagia | are you sure? | 00:03 |
kittyfirekitty | yes | 00:03 |
Ben64 | so download the 64 bit iso... | 00:03 |
polyphagia | you're using the OEM windows too? | 00:03 |
Razzdoll | xid do you know how I can autologin to ubuntu desktop? | 00:04 |
kittyfirekitty | i did download the 64bit, i can't virtualize it and i can't get it to boot from the boot menu | 00:04 |
polyphagia | why doesn't it boot from the boot menu? | 00:04 |
Ben64 | you really don't need to run it in virtualbox | 00:04 |
xid | Razzdoll: I'm positivie that it's really easy, but honestly I don't know, for Unity. Check google. | 00:04 |
polyphagia | i mean you say you're on a 64 bit machine but it sure sounds like it isn't lol | 00:04 |
kittyfirekitty | system control panel says: 32bit operation system- x64-based processor | 00:05 |
polyphagia | so you managed to get into your bios? | 00:05 |
kittyfirekitty | i don't know hwy it won't boot from the boot menu, it only flickers and brings me back to the boot menu | 00:05 |
polyphagia | it might be uefi | 00:05 |
Razzdoll | xid will do | 00:05 |
kittyfirekitty | if i re-enable secure boot, and try the same option it gives me a security error before returning to the menu | 00:05 |
BadDream | sounds like the install medium wasnt made bootable | 00:06 |
BadDream | or a borked install | 00:06 |
kittyfirekitty | its listed as bootable in the storage management snap in | 00:06 |
polyphagia | it's weird it didn't say anything though | 00:06 |
polyphagia | it should say that it's not bootable | 00:06 |
BadDream | wat program did you use to make the bootable iso kittyfirekitty? | 00:06 |
kittyfirekitty | it is a fat32 partition, it has the /EFI/BOOT directories | 00:06 |
polyphagia | ^ | 00:07 |
kittyfirekitty | LinuxLive USB Creator -- as suggested from the uefi liveUSB walk through suggestions | 00:07 |
polyphagia | hm well pendrive linux is recommended by ubuntu | 00:07 |
polyphagia | although yeah idk about uefi | 00:07 |
polyphagia | ok | 00:08 |
BadDream | ive had alot of success with unetbootin | 00:08 |
polyphagia | no | 00:08 |
polyphagia | don't use unetbootin | 00:08 |
BadDream | works for me | 00:08 |
xid | seems like we're just guessing that it's a uefi issue | 00:09 |
xid | tried loading the kernel and mounting everything manually from the grub shell? | 00:09 |
kittyfirekitty | at what point will i see a grub menu? | 00:10 |
xid | oh ... i may have missed something | 00:10 |
xid | so i've used stuff like refind to make it find my EFI voume | 00:11 |
xid | volume | 00:11 |
xid | when all else has failed | 00:11 |
xid | but it can be accomplished with other tools like gdisk and fdisk | 00:11 |
kittyfirekitty | so this pendrive linux thing, i don't exactly see a 'download for windows' button anywhere, where would i go to achieve this? | 00:12 |
Razzdoll | xid: 15.04, does this use LightDM? I see instructions on google, just dont know if I have Light DM | 00:13 |
kittyfirekitty | ah they made the universal USB installer instead, reading... | 00:13 |
xid | Does unity use lightdm in 15.04? I'm not sure, but if it does, there's a disabled "autologin" line in the default /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. just uncomment and add your username, i think. something like that. | 00:15 |
Razzdoll | xid; thanks. as you can tell I am a noob, but so far.. I'm happy with it over windows | 00:16 |
Razzdoll | xid, if I feel lost, theres always virtualbox | 00:17 |
gill6150 | Still can't get steam games to run.. | 00:18 |
xid | no problem man. I wish I could help, but I honestly don't have Unity available to me at the moment. | 00:18 |
Razzdoll | xid; no its ok', you're helping plenty. As long as I know some what of where to begin and the correct phrases, chances are I could get the answer, it will take time but I always do. | 00:19 |
footoleggo | could someone help me set up my proxy connection? :> | 00:20 |
gill6150 | Just downloaded Ubuntu, and can't get steam games to load. | 00:21 |
krabador | how can i run a full game app like a game, only directly on second screen? | 00:22 |
Umeaboy | Would it be possible to ONLY have Ubuntu installed on a 2015 Macbook Pro? | 00:24 |
Umeaboy | gill6150: What driver are you using? | 00:25 |
gill6150 | No idea.... Honestly, I'm a complete idiot when it comes to Linux. | 00:26 |
Razzdoll | xid; by the way. I got it. It turns out all I had to do was go into User Accounts, click on my name and enter the password and toggle the switch. D'oh! | 00:27 |
Umeaboy | gill6150: Open Settings ->Program and Updates- | 00:29 |
Umeaboy | Then take a look at the tab called Other drivers. | 00:29 |
Umeaboy | Or More Drivers. | 00:30 |
Umeaboy | I use Ubuntu with another language than English so it might differ. | 00:30 |
gill6150 | Umeaboy: It's a Radeon HD 7340 | 00:30 |
Umeaboy | Then google that name and add Steam to see if anyone else has had problems in Linux and how they solved it (if there IS a solution that is) | 00:33 |
Umeaboy | gill6150: ^^ | 00:34 |
gill6150 | Umeaboy: Thank you, I'll let you know if i figure it out. | 00:35 |
Umeaboy | Otherwise you can always switch to the commersial driver from the list and see if THAT works. | 00:35 |
gill6150 | Commersial driver? | 00:36 |
polyphagia | gill6150: steam isn't opening for you? | 00:37 |
xid | Razzdoll: nice, I knew there was an easy way. | 00:37 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: Steam opens fine, But the games within steam won't run. | 00:37 |
polyphagia | did you enable the proprietary amd driver gill6150 ? | 00:38 |
polyphagia | fglrx | 00:38 |
polyphagia | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD | 00:38 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: I have no idea what any of that meant, sadly. | 00:38 |
polyphagia | gill6150: there are two drivers available for AMD cards on linux | 00:38 |
polyphagia | the one ubuntu ships with is the open source (free software) driver | 00:38 |
xid | trying to configure that driver without any success still gives me nightmares | 00:38 |
polyphagia | but AMD has their own closed source driver | 00:39 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: So tje fglrx one or the fglrx-updates one? | 00:39 |
xid | doesn't steam work on the xorg driver? | 00:39 |
gill6150 | the* | 00:39 |
polyphagia | the open source one is ideal, but it's not nearly as efficient and usually doesn't support opengl at reasonable speeds | 00:39 |
polyphagia | for newer cards anyway | 00:39 |
polyphagia | gill6150: yeah | 00:39 |
polyphagia | -updates | 00:39 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: I guess we will see if it helps. | 00:40 |
polyphagia | gill6150: ubuntu should have a GUI for this | 00:40 |
polyphagia | called jockey | 00:40 |
polyphagia | jockey gtk or something | 00:40 |
gill6150 | Still trying to learn linux at the moment. | 00:40 |
wafflejock | gill6150, polyphagia additional drivers in the dash | 00:40 |
polyphagia | and it will tell you which proprietary drivers you can install | 00:40 |
polyphagia | but we already know you need fglrx gill6150 | 00:40 |
wafflejock | Umeaboy, are you shopping for a computer or asking for an existing MBP? | 00:40 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: Alright. | 00:41 |
wafflejock | gill6150, the dash is just the search thing when you hit windows key | 00:41 |
gill6150 | wafflejock: I was wondering what the windows key would do on linux, Was scared to push it honestly. | 00:41 |
gill6150 | wafflejock: Someone told me not too, as a joke obviously. but after that wasn't sure. | 00:41 |
wafflejock | gill6150, heh yeah don't worry too much you can't break things badly (usually) unless you're using sudo or something asks for your admin password | 00:42 |
polyphagia | only be cautious when somebody tells you to use the magic sysrq key :P | 00:42 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: So, Whats this magic sysrq key? :p | 00:42 |
polyphagia | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 00:42 |
polyphagia | you can use it combined with some other keys to do quite a bit | 00:43 |
gill6150 | wow, you were quick | 00:43 |
gill6150 | So, What's the Ctrl+Alt+Delete of linux? | 00:43 |
polyphagia | you can use ctrl + alt + f1-f7 | 00:43 |
polyphagia | to switch TTYs | 00:43 |
gill6150 | (Sorry i have had linux for a total of one day) | 00:43 |
gill6150 | What's TTYs? | 00:44 |
polyphagia | f7 is the one you're on now | 00:44 |
polyphagia | http://askubuntu.com/questions/481906/what-does-tty-stand-for | 00:44 |
wafflejock | gill6150, no problem as long as they're ubuntu support questions it's okay here | 00:44 |
polyphagia | anyway gill6150 through a tty you can login to your account and kill/start processes | 00:45 |
gill6150 | wafflejock: Thanks. | 00:45 |
polyphagia | you can use a program called htop for a command line tool like system monitor | 00:45 |
gill6150 | I did it, and i was lost on what to do. | 00:45 |
gill6150 | This driver change is taking forever. | 00:46 |
polyphagia | yeah it's pretty big | 00:46 |
wafflejock | gill6150, yeah learning the terminal takes some time but with a few commands you can pick up the rest pretty easily... and yeah the driver change can take a while | 00:46 |
polyphagia | gill6150: your graphics should be much faster once it's installed | 00:46 |
wafflejock | gill6150, the man command will bring up the manual for another command so, man man, will show the manual on the manual, use arrow keys to scroll and q to quit | 00:46 |
xid | I got hopeful when you mentioned Jockey, but I didn't realize that was replaced by the Software Center program. Yeah, fglrx failed horribly for me when I installed it that way. | 00:47 |
wafflejock | gill6150, major commands are, ls to list files/directories, cd to change into a folder, . is the current folder .. is the parent folder, pwd (print working directory) shows the current directory | 00:47 |
polyphagia | xid: yeah jockey is rip :P | 00:47 |
Umeaboy | wafflejock: The latter. | 00:47 |
xid | steam works pretty well though | 00:47 |
xid | with xorg driver | 00:47 |
polyphagia | it depends on which card you have | 00:48 |
wafflejock | !mac | Umeaboy | 00:48 |
ubottu | Umeaboy: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 00:48 |
gill6150 | xid: not for me | 00:48 |
polyphagia | for some cards the free drivers work great, even with 3d | 00:48 |
wafflejock | Umeaboy, not sure off hand but that has some info on installing on various mac hardware | 00:48 |
polyphagia | and the free drivers are almost always way more stable | 00:48 |
polyphagia | i had a 7950 though and i had no 3d acceleration with radeon | 00:48 |
wafflejock | Umeaboy, I would guess if you use RefIt or some boot loader that will work there shouldn't be an issue wiping out the other partition with OS X but never tried | 00:48 |
gill6150 | wafflejock: So, this isn't really a support question but when i was asking whether to download ubuntu or not, i asked for pros and cons. I never got any. What cons are there? | 00:49 |
polyphagia | pretty much just software compatability and familiarity i'd say | 00:49 |
wafflejock | gill6150, mostly lack of proprietary software support like Adobe creative suite, games but Steam on Linux has started to quickly solve that | 00:49 |
polyphagia | also sometimes the proprietary drivers can be slower than on windows | 00:49 |
xid | polyphagia: same, although another chipset, but in my case Xorg wasn't autodetecting, resulting in using the software graphics driver, so i had to manually configure my xorg.cnf | 00:50 |
gill6150 | polyphagia: wafflejock Those were things i already knew, so not too worried about thath. :p | 00:50 |
polyphagia | well that's pretty much it gill6150 | 00:50 |
wafflejock | gill6150, support can sometimes be hard to come by but people in here can be helpful and you have to pay hand over fist for help on proprietary systems anyhow | 00:50 |
polyphagia | honestly wafflejock yeah i agree | 00:50 |
polyphagia | support is not something i'd say as a con | 00:50 |
polyphagia | especially compared to os x / windows | 00:50 |
polyphagia | people act like because windows costs money that you automatically get microsoft support | 00:50 |
gill6150 | wafflejock: Driver finished, do i need to do anything else? | 00:50 |
polyphagia | when in reality microsoft's support is only there for enterprise :P | 00:51 |
polyphagia | gill6150: restart | 00:51 |
wafflejock | gill6150, nope but I believe a reboot is good to make sure everything is sticking and running | 00:51 |
gill6150 | Be right back, then | 00:51 |
Umeaboy | wafflejock: That page isn't updated when it comes to the iMac. ;( | 00:52 |
polyphagia | not to mention wafflejock with gnu/linux you can talk to people who have actually screwed around in the source | 00:52 |
polyphagia | so they might have a better idea on how things work | 00:52 |
wafflejock | Umeaboy, yeah I know it tends to slack behind part of why I asked about if you already had hardware cause can get systems made for Ubuntu from a few places depending on wher eyou live | 00:52 |
wafflejock | polyphagia, yeah that helps when you can get a hold of those experts | 00:52 |
wafflejock | polyphagia, also if you can code can dig in yourself sometimes | 00:52 |
polyphagia | yup i've contributed a bit | 00:53 |
polyphagia | it's a great way to learn too | 00:53 |
polyphagia | having these completed projects available to learn from | 00:53 |
polyphagia | instead of always starting from scratch | 00:53 |
wafflejock | polyphagia, awesome, yeah haven't actually contributed anything back code wise yet but I started building some web interface bits that tie in with GNUCash might open source some of that stuff | 00:53 |
polyphagia | sweet :D | 00:53 |
polyphagia | do it | 00:53 |
polyphagia | and contributing is way easier than i thought too | 00:54 |
wafflejock | polyphagia, yeah still need to flesh it out some, right now does CSV import of JPMorgan Chase transactions and selects categories, but depends on using the MySQL datastore option in GNUCash, it seems like the team there is thinking about rebuilding that architecture sometime soon (had a lot of key/value pair stuff saved in the DB for various features) | 00:55 |
wafflejock | anyhow don't want to stay OT too long in here but yeah it's fun | 00:55 |
polyphagia | ah yeah i see | 00:55 |
gill6150_ | wafflej0ck: polyphagia About to load steam up now, hope this works | 00:55 |
polyphagia | i've never used gnucash but i'm pretty familiar with web stuff and sql | 00:55 |
polyphagia | kk gill6150_ well the driver is likely already working | 00:56 |
Umeaboy | wafflejock: So, Apple hasn't blocked booting from an alternate media as of the new iMac's? | 00:56 |
polyphagia | since you didn't get greeted by an xorg error | 00:56 |
Umeaboy | They DON'T want us to use any other OS'es in their hardware nowadays I guess. | 00:56 |
wafflejock | Umeaboy, sorry just don't know a clear answer on that, but not that I heard | 00:56 |
polyphagia | lol macs have an OS whitelist | 00:56 |
wafflejock | Umeaboy, yeah before just couldn't use their software on other hardware | 00:57 |
gill6150_ | polyphagia: Still not loading steam game. | 00:57 |
gill6150_ | Guess ill try to delete and re download | 00:57 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, which game in particular? | 00:57 |
polyphagia | you're not even allowed to virtualize os x | 00:57 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, that might be worth a shot | 00:57 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: I have tried two games, Dwarfs F2P & Mount & Blade: Warband | 00:57 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, some games like Bioshock Infinite they released some files without the executable at first and later released the actual program file | 00:57 |
polyphagia | hmm gill6150_ | 00:57 |
polyphagia | does fglrxinfo in the terminal work? | 00:57 |
gill6150_ | polyphagia: no idea what you mean soo. | 00:58 |
polyphagia | search the dash for 'terminal' | 00:58 |
polyphagia | open the prog and type | 00:58 |
polyphagia | fglrxinfo | 00:58 |
gill6150_ | polyphagia: doesn't ctrl+alt+t work? | 00:58 |
wafflejock | yup that should do it too | 00:59 |
polyphagia | i don't remember but it didn't last time i used gnome shell :P | 00:59 |
polyphagia | but good thing unity kept it i guess | 00:59 |
gill6150_ | polyphagia: wafflejock display: :0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon HD 7340 Graphics OpenGL version string: 4.4.13374 Compatibility Profile Context 15.20.1013 | 00:59 |
polyphagia | ok so the driver installed properly | 01:00 |
gill6150_ | Also, It appears Ctrl+C for copy and Ctrl+V for paste do not work, whats the command in Ubuntu? :p | 01:00 |
polyphagia | they do | 01:00 |
polyphagia | just not in the terminal | 01:00 |
polyphagia | because ctrl + c and ctrl + v mean something else | 01:00 |
polyphagia | you can highlight and middle click | 01:00 |
wafflejock | ctrl+shift+c I think works too | 01:00 |
polyphagia | yeah | 01:00 |
wafflejock | and shift insert for paste or ctrl+shift+v | 01:01 |
wafflejock | or select and middle click | 01:01 |
gill6150_ | wow. | 01:01 |
gill6150_ | I used to get like KB/s when downloading on steam, now im getting 10 MB/s | 01:01 |
Umeaboy | gill6150_: You can choose your own settings for the keyboard shortcuts and button combos. | 01:01 |
gill6150_ | Umeaboy: Where at?? | 01:01 |
polyphagia | gill6150_: does glxgears work | 01:02 |
polyphagia | in the terminal? | 01:02 |
=== badon_ is now known as badon | ||
gill6150_ | Not installed, install it? | 01:02 |
polyphagia | gill6150_: if so, what about fgl_glxgears? | 01:02 |
polyphagia | try that one first | 01:02 |
Umeaboy | Settings -> Keyboard | 01:02 |
gill6150_ | uhhh. | 01:02 |
gill6150_ | Some spinning cube popped up? | 01:03 |
polyphagia | kk great | 01:03 |
polyphagia | then steam is the problem, your drivers are fine now | 01:03 |
gill6150_ | Okay, That's good. | 01:03 |
gill6150_ | What do i do about steam? | 01:03 |
gill6150_ | & Can i get out of the spinning cube? | 01:03 |
Umeaboy | gill6150_: Ask in #steamlug | 01:03 |
Umeaboy | ;) | 01:03 |
polyphagia | gill6150_: use ctrl + c in the terminal | 01:03 |
gill6150_ | Umeaboy: might have too. :p | 01:03 |
polyphagia | that it's running in | 01:03 |
gill6150_ | Okay, thanks. | 01:04 |
gill6150_ | polyphagia: wafflejock thanks for the help, im asking over in steam | 01:06 |
polyphagia | kk gl | 01:06 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yup good luck | 01:06 |
gill6150_ | Also, What's a good music radio on here? | 01:07 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, rhythmbox is the default music player, pithos is a nice option for getting pandora streams | 01:08 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: I could never get rhythmbox is work, not sure why. | 01:08 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, check the ubuntu software center or in a terminal "sudo apt-get install pithos" check it out if you need to remove "sudo apt-get remove pithos" | 01:08 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yeah I'm not a huge rhthmbox fan either, it's okay though | 01:09 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, Amarok was always kinda cool but also not super impressive and feels kinda heavy weight for what it is | 01:09 |
gill6150_ | Getting pithos, ill try it for now | 01:09 |
Osmodivs | Hi. I am in Ubuntu 12.04.5 32bits I upgraded via Software Updater and I think it got stuck, its been like this for hours. It stuck in this part: run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub 3.2.0-85-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-85-generic | 01:10 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, guess kodi/xbmc are cool too if you have a media collection though and for other media streaming | 01:10 |
=== tarwater is now known as lazybugg | ||
wafflejock | gill6150_, xbmc (renamed kodi recently) is more of a windows media center kind of thing though, typically used for on a TV or the like so it takes over by default | 01:11 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: That might be useful, but does pandora.com not work on steam? | 01:11 |
gill6150_ | Ubuntu* | 01:11 |
gill6150_ | Not sure why i said steam. :p | 01:11 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, you can just use the site I just like having a separate client for controlling it so I can close out the browser if I need to | 01:11 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, I do web dev stuff so I sometimes break my browser :) | 01:12 |
gill6150_ | The site keeps saying there a problem. | 01:12 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: I'm just a basic user. | 01:12 |
gill6150_ | Wish I knew how to do web dev, programming, etc. lol | 01:12 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, oh you may need Chrome to have flash | 01:12 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, I just pulled it up here in Chrome | 01:12 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: I downloaded flash for firefox. | 01:13 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: which btw took me about an hour. | 01:13 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yeah the Flash you can get for Linux is pretty out dated though, the one in Chrome (even on linux) is maintained by chrome itself and you get a newer version | 01:13 |
Ben64 | thats not how to get flash | 01:13 |
Ben64 | sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 01:14 |
wafflejock | Ben64, right but that installs what 11 and in Chrome I have Flash 17 | 01:14 |
gill6150_ | Ben64: It's already the newest version | 01:15 |
wafflejock | http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ | 01:15 |
izinucs | how do I get irssi to ignore joins parts quits while in the channel? | 01:15 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: So, How do i install chgrome? | 01:15 |
gill6150_ | chrome* | 01:15 |
gill6150_ | sudo apt-get install chrome? | 01:15 |
Ben64 | wafflejock: i didn't say it was newer than chrome | 01:15 |

wafflejock | gill6150_, eh I'm gonna eat my words here just tried in FF with Flash 11 and that's working fine on pandora.com for me as well | 01:16 |
gill6150_ | haha, Alright. So maybe My computer is just shit & nothing will work. :p | 01:17 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, you can install chromium using apt-get or the "software center" in the dash, you can get a .deb file for regular chrome from google but then don't get updates automatically | 01:17 |
Ben64 | actually, i think the deb installs the google ppa | 01:17 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, if you went with chromium here's some quick instructions on adding Flash https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Chromium/Getting-Flash | 01:17 |
wafflejock | Ben42, ah yeah I think you're right | 01:17 |
wafflejock | Ben64, even | 01:18 |
Ben64 | same guy | 01:18 |
wafflejock | ah k | 01:18 |
gill6150_ | What's chormium? | 01:18 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, just open source chrome typically slightly newer revision I don't think it departs too much though (from a user perspective feels mostly the same) | 01:18 |
Razzdoll | SI know this isnt #cairo-dock, but does anyone have experience with it? I cannot edit it and customize it with certain program icons, etc. | 01:19 |
Razzdoll | I* | 01:19 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: Wow, Ubuntu is confusing. I swear i've learned more in the past two days then i have my whole life using windows. | 01:20 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, eh there is a learning curve to both it's just a lot of new stuff I'm sure and you're talking with relative geeks :) | 01:20 |
Ben64 | its not confusing, its just different. if you used linux your whole life windows would feel the same amount of confusing, or more | 01:20 |
izinucs | gill6150_: and you won't ever stop learning .. it's an environment that foster exploration | 01:20 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, I did Windows IT support so when you get in the depths of the registry and the various layers of application caches then linux is relatively simply organized | 01:21 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: I'm okay with always learning, i just want to know enough where i can download a simple program without asking 20 questions. :p | 01:21 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, well apt-get is the main thing to learn here | 01:21 |
Ben64 | almost every program you'd need is in the software center | 01:21 |
wafflejock | er software center to faces to the same thing | 01:21 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: I've got that, i think | 01:21 |
wafflejock | two* | 01:21 |
Ben64 | much easier than going through googling, finding a download link, making sure its not a virus, etc | 01:21 |
izinucs | gill6150_: it gets easier.. for the most part the repositories have most everything you need. There are exceptions like chrome.. although chromium is installed which is the full opensource version of chrome.. no propiatory bits | 01:22 |
gill6150_ | Ben64: For someone that has always done that, not really. | 01:22 |
gill6150_ | Ben64: Not trying to bash, just comparing to what i know. | 01:22 |
jak2000 | i want add a user as sudoer, but cant: sudo vi /etc/sudoers dit an sae but cant save the message always is: "E45: 'readonly' option is set (add ! to override)" how to fix it? | 01:23 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: What does "no propiatory bits" mean? | 01:23 |
Ben64 | really? opening up the sofware center, typing in a program name and clicking install isn't easier than that? | 01:23 |
gill6150_ | Ben64: Talking more the "sudo apt-get" thing. | 01:23 |
Ben64 | has the same effect | 01:23 |
izinucs | gill6150_: there is a mental shift.. it's aquard getting out of the "windows" mentality.. propiatory bits code that isn't opensource | 01:23 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yeah that's just something us who use the systems a lot use cause it's faster when you know the names of what you're looking for and you want to install a few things at once | 01:24 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: I figured i'd get on a few peoples nerves, but It'll take some time to adjust. | 01:24 |
polyphagia | jak2000: use $ sudo adduser username sudo | 01:24 |
polyphagia | then relogin | 01:24 |
polyphagia | yeah gill6150_ you'll find the programs that are annoying to install or don't work quite right are usually proprietary | 01:25 |
polyphagia | closed source | 01:25 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, also if you are remotely administering machines (which a good amount of us do) then you need to do it in the command line, also it's not different regardless of which graphical interface you're using (there are lots of graphical shells for linux) | 01:25 |
izinucs | gill6150_: no worries.. everyone starts someplace.. I dropped my win machine for linux with one of the original ubuntu releases.. still feel like a novice | 01:25 |
gill6150_ | polyphagia: makes sense, As linux is an open source | 01:25 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: Still got windows, Don't have the guts to drop it yet.. | 01:25 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, I held on for like 6 months before switching to just using windows in a virtual box when I need it | 01:26 |
psusi | jak2000, check dmesg for any disk errors that resulted in your filesystem being remounted read-only | 01:26 |
izinucs | gill6150_: there's a tool for everything.. sometimes that tool is only available on windows (ie usually business apps).. but with my business I've found it easier on linux.. kde is my desktop of choice. | 01:26 |
polyphagia | psusi: i'm pretty sure it's just because he didn't use root to edit the file | 01:26 |
polyphagia | but using adduser is a much cleaner method then using visudo or something | 01:27 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: I just have a dualboot. Debating on when I build my computer if im gonan do the dualboot or just windows or just linux. | 01:27 |
polyphagia | than* | 01:27 |
psusi | polyphagia, he said he used sudo | 01:27 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: What's kde? | 01:27 |
polyphagia | i think that file may be special though psusi | 01:27 |
polyphagia | needs to be edited using visudo | 01:27 |
polyphagia | but adduser is simpler | 01:27 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yeah I like the Linux with windows in virtual box cause Linux boots fast and does 99% of what I need then if I need to test in IE or open a PSD or something I just start up the Windows vbox instance | 01:27 |
polyphagia | if cs2 is all you need, it works in wine | 01:28 |
izinucs | gill6150_: what you look at for a gui is called the desktop.. there are many different ones to choose from. kde is probably the easiest to use coming from windows. | 01:28 |
psusi | doesn't have to be... yes, adding the user to the group is simpler, but the fact that he got a read only error editing a file as root points to the whole fs being read only | 01:28 |
gill6150_ | How would a windows in virtual box work? | 01:28 |
IRC84181 | kde is desktop environment | 01:28 |
IRC84181 | stands for k desktop environment | 01:28 |
psusi | which means something bad happened | 01:28 |
IRC84181 | used to stand for kool desktop environment | 01:28 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: & How do you change? | 01:28 |
polyphagia | psusi: i just don't think it's likely | 01:28 |
IRC84181 | gill6150 ^^ read | 01:28 |
IRC84181 | use apt-get install <desktop environment> | 01:29 |
IRC84181 | depends on environment though | 01:29 |
polyphagia | that file needs to be changed using visudo | 01:29 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, it works well actually even with a intel laptop GPU I can run photoshop without a terrible amount of lag | 01:29 |
izinucs | gill6150_: google kubuntu and you'll get some screen shots.. you can have 2 desktops installed at the same time if you want.. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop.. then log out and there will be an option to switch to kde on the login screen | 01:29 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: How would I go about that? | 01:29 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: I really like that idea. | 01:29 |
polyphagia | KDE5 looks really great | 01:29 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, just download VirtualBox from the software center, then you start up VirtualBox's management interface and hit new and creates a "virtual disk image" you can just follow the defaults basically for all of that | 01:30 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: Thanks, & Downloading that desktop right now | 01:30 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, I did a video here with virtual box at the beginning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQNbsCTFrAA but I'm installing linux in a vbox in linux just to show people how to use vbox on whatever | 01:30 |
psusi | root can edit any file he wants... how do you think visodo manages to do it? it just sudos to root and touches a lock file to prevent multiple people from doing it at the same time | 01:30 |
izinucs | gill6150_: virtualbox is a whole nother adventure.. but works great | 01:30 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: I think i might be biting off more then i can chew. | 01:31 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, wouldn't dive into everything at once take it slow but it's good to ask the questions when you're trying to figure out what to run | 01:31 |
gill6150_ | izinucs: wafflejock I've learned when i browse the web I use Ubuntu. It's WAY faster on my computer | 01:31 |
izinucs | gill6150_: easier to just install kubutu-desktop. they (ubuntu and kubuntu) live easily together.. on boot you get to choose which one you want to use at that time.. switch back anytime | 01:32 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yeah it tends to use a lot less CPU doing background tasks, modern windows is constantly indexing things for search and just doing endless tasks | 01:32 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: My computer has got so slow, I barley wanna play it anymore. I used to not lag when playing games, but now i do on the same games. | 01:33 |
jeeves_moss | I'm following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=263136, and I can't seem to join my wireless network. is there a way to make the card connect with the ifconfig? | 01:34 |
wafflejock | gill6150_, yeah somehow it seems every version of windows still suffers from bloat over time and slows down, maybe they'll change with Win10 but can discuss that in #ubuntu-offtopic if you want since it's not support and the ops here like to keep this room open for questions | 01:34 |
gill6150_ | wafflejock: My bad, i'll head over there | 01:35 |
IRC84181 | when you mount a partition eg /dev/sda1 with the /mnt part, the /mnt part is used as a reference point right? | 01:39 |
psusi | IRC84181, define "reference point" | 01:39 |
IRC84181 | liek a shortcut that you can use for changing directory into via terminal, eg cd /mnt or chroot /mnt | 01:40 |
psusi | IRC84181, not really.. that simply is the location where that filesystem *is* | 01:43 |
IRC84181 | ok thanks | 01:43 |
psusi | shortcut implies it actually is somewhere else | 01:44 |
histo | irc8418 cd to the mount point is not chrooting there | 01:44 |
izinucs | IRC84181: are you referring to .. say .. a usb sitck? cd /media/<username> then ls to view what's there.. then cd <name-of-folder> | 01:47 |
IRC84181 | i know but i meant is it used as a reference point, like can you just use /mnt instead of /dev/sd[Xyz](eg dev/sda1) | 01:48 |
reisio | /mnt would describe a path you'd mount a /dev/(ice) _to_ | 01:48 |
reisio | the /mnt can be most anyplace | 01:48 |
reisio | /dev/foo is how the system sees the device, and will change less frequently | 01:49 |

kittyfirekitty | anyone able to help me troubleshoot my steps for making a uefi live USB ? | 02:03 |
=== rag is now known as Guest95584 | ||
psusi | IRC84181, /dev/sda1 is the partition on the drive, not the files in it.. to access the files in it, the filesystem has to be mounted in a directory somewhere | 02:04 |
jeeves_moss | what is the lightest weight/smallest desktop I can install? | 02:05 |
reisio | jeeves_moss: why do you ask | 02:05 |
IRC84181 | there are some that are like 40mb | 02:05 |
IRC84181 | try --> http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ | 02:05 |
jeeves_moss | reisio, I'm installing it on a BeagleBone Black. storage is a concern. I just need it to run a web interface, an on-screen keyboard, and use the resistive touch screen | 02:06 |
IRC84181 | its 50MB so can be installed almost anywhere | 02:06 |
reisio | IRC84181: that's a distro, not a desktop environment | 02:06 |
IRC84181 | oh | 02:06 |
reisio | jeeves_moss: storage is not a concern | 02:06 |
reisio | you can get a disk the size of a fingernail that holds more than any OS will require | 02:06 |
IRC84181 | read question wrong | 02:06 |
reisio | embedded is utterly dead, as a capacity issue | 02:06 |
IRC84181 | lxde is not bad | 02:06 |
jeeves_moss | reisio, I meant that I have ~900Mb to work with | 02:06 |
reisio | jeeves_moss: just get more | 02:07 |
jeeves_moss | reisio, I'd love to, but it's a soldered on eMMC | 02:07 |
reisio | jeeves_moss: so don't use it, use some other medium | 02:07 |
jeeves_moss | IRC84181, do you have a link for a base install with nothing more than FF? | 02:07 |
wafflejock | jeeves_moss, you can install on a microsd | 02:07 |
reisio | you can install on anything that holds data | 02:08 |
IRC84181 | what is ff? | 02:08 |
wafflejock | firefox | 02:08 |
jeeves_moss | reisio, this is the platform I'm going to use. upgrading the storage or changing the platform is not an option | 02:08 |
jeeves_moss | IRC84181, yes. | 02:08 |
IRC84181 | oh | 02:08 |
reisio | sounds like a silly corner you've backed yourself into | 02:08 |
jeeves_moss | IRC84181, yea. programers with thier heads in the clouds. | 02:08 |
reisio | if you install a base system, and X, and Firefox, you can get a kiosk going easily | 02:08 |
jeeves_moss | reisio, that's basically what I'm trying to get acomplished. | 02:09 |
reisio | mmhmmm | 02:09 |
jeeves_moss | is gnome been gutted yet? | 02:09 |
reisio | gutted? | 02:09 |
jeeves_moss | yea, a lightweight base install that's small so I can start adding what I need. if I run "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop", there's a few gigs of crap that get installed (office, etc) | 02:10 |
reisio | if you want a kiosk, all you need is the X.org server and a browser | 02:10 |
IRC84181 | i know damsmalllinux is like 50MB , whole OS | 02:10 |
reisio | preferably one not tied to a desktop, like firefox or something smaller yet | 02:10 |
kittyfirekitty | anyone able to see this, this is a new irc client and i have no clue if i'm even using this correctly | 02:10 |
reisio | IRC84181: whole pointless OS | 02:10 |
jeeves_moss | IRC84181, I need it to be debian. | 02:10 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: define correctly | 02:10 |
IRC84181 | oh | 02:11 |
reisio | jeeves_moss: so install Debian | 02:11 |
kittyfirekitty | conveying the text i type across the .... oh looks like its working then | 02:11 |
kittyfirekitty | i'm looking for help getting my computer to boot a liveUSB (i've tried two different windows utilities to create it, to no avail) | 02:12 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: which liveusb? | 02:12 |
kittyfirekitty | i used LinuxLive USB Creator 2.9.3 on the ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 02:13 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: unetbootin works decently IME | 02:13 |
jeeves_moss | ok, lets see if this installs, and if we break out 2A power budget | 02:13 |
kittyfirekitty | i've also tried unetbootin-windows-608 and Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.6.0 and Win32DiskImager-0.9.5-install | 02:14 |
kittyfirekitty | none worked for me | 02:14 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: what happened? | 02:14 |
kittyfirekitty | while in the bios boot menu, i select the usb drive, the screen flickers and just returns to the bios boot menu | 02:14 |
reisio | you try another usb port/drive? | 02:15 |
kittyfirekitty | there is only one port on this computer, i've tried 3 different thumb/external hd/sdcard readers | 02:15 |

=== danielw is now known as danielbw_home | ||
kittyfirekitty | its a usb 3.0 port if that is what you are asking, and yes i've checked these drives to see if the files are being wrote correctly, and they appear to be, the disc management plugin in windows shows that the partition is fat32, is active, explorere shows me /EFI/BOOT | 02:18 |
=== danielbw_home is now known as danielbw_ | ||
reisio | probably your hardware/firmware doesn't like booting from 3 | 02:18 |
reisio | no OS on it already? | 02:19 |
kittyfirekitty | win8.1, uefi | 02:19 |
=== danielbw_ is now known as danielbw | ||
reisio | mmm | 02:20 |
reisio | efi might have special steps | 02:20 |
reisio | or it might just not be at all designed to boot from usb | 02:20 |
reisio | (the hardware/firmware) | 02:20 |
kittyfirekitty | i've been working from the walkthrough from ubuntu pages | 02:20 |
krabador | how can i run a full game app like a game, only directly on second screen? | 02:21 |
krabador | *full screen | 02:21 |
kittyfirekitty | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 02:21 |
reisio | krabador: as opposed to? | 02:23 |
patrick__ | hello | 02:24 |
krabador | reisio, simply in a dual head system, i would run full screen apps, like games, only on a particular display | 02:25 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: if you want to see if it's just an issue with your image/r/s, you could try seeing if http://is.gd/acitex boots | 02:25 |
reisio | krabador: right, as opposed to what? | 02:25 |
gill6150 | wafflej0ck: | 02:25 |
gill6150 | izinucs: | 02:25 |
EDSF | :) | 02:25 |
gill6150 | I tried to download kubuntu, but when i reboot the front screen says kubuntu but when it loads its still ubuntu | 02:26 |
kittyfirekitty | 438Mb will take about... 2hours to finish downloading | 02:26 |
cfhowlett | gill6150, "tried ..." | 02:26 |
krabador | reisio, what's the meaning of opposed | 02:26 |
reisio | krabador: what's is it that _is_ happening _instead_? | 02:27 |
gill6150 | cfhowlett: I don't get your point? | 02:27 |
cfhowlett | gill6150, DID you or did you NOT download kubuntu? | 02:27 |
krabador | reisio, for example, urban terror, runs on both | 02:27 |
gill6150 | cfhowlett: If the Loading screen says Kubuntu. that'd show its downloaded. | 02:28 |
=== erwin is now known as neuron | ||
gill6150 | I'd think anyways. | 02:28 |
reisio | krabador: the particular configuration for that will probably vary based on your graphics driver and window manager | 02:28 |
krabador | radeon driver and gnome | 02:29 |
kittyfirekitty | reisio: the image is fine, sysresccd also refers to the same utilities i've already tried for making their livesticks | 02:30 |
jeeves_moss | gooooooooooooo power budgets!!! I love a challange. storage, ram, power, screen size, etc | 02:30 |
reisio | krabador: what version of gnome? | 02:30 |
krabador | 3.14 | 02:30 |
* reisio prefers non-contrived challenges | 02:30 | |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: no it doesn't, did you even go to the link I provided? :p | 02:31 |
reisio | krabador: just '3.14'? | 02:31 |
kittyfirekitty | reisio yes, and i just said it'll take about 3 hours to download 438Mb, it says that if the utility they offer dosn't work, then to use the linuxliveusbcreator | 02:31 |
reisio | krabador: there should probably be a third version number | 02:32 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: I find it unlikely you used sysresccd's own custom imaging utility for sysresccd alone... for an ubuntu image already | 02:32 |
reisio | but whatever | 02:32 |
reisio | kittyfirekitty: what make/model is this device? | 02:32 |
amorbix | test | 02:32 |
kittyfirekitty | so you want me to download their install utility, and use it on the image from the iso for the ubuntu installer? | 02:33 |
wafflejock | gill6150, if you logout at the login screen you'll have a dropdown where you can select the desktop environment | 02:33 |
gill6150 | wafflejock: I wasn't logging out, just restarting.. | 02:33 |
krabador | reisio, 3.14.2 | 02:33 |
Osmodivs | Hi. I am in Ubuntu 12.04.5 32bits I upgraded via Software Updater and I think it got stuck, its been like this for hours. It stuck in this part: run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub 3.2.0-85-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-85-generic | 02:34 |
wafflejock | gill6150, yeah at the initial login screen you should see a drop down with Unity and KDE in it now if you installed kubuntu desktop alongside the default Unity desktop | 02:34 |
krabador | reisio, major settings don't change between .1 and .2 | 02:34 |
reisio | krabador: sure they don't | 02:35 |
gill6150_ | wafflej0ck: Got it working, but it says it won't save anything. Whys that? | 02:36 |
wafflejock | gill6150, not sure what you're seeing there? still got it on screen? | 02:37 |
wafflejock | gill6150, install "shutter" it's a nice program for capturing screenshots and can export to imgur quick and easy | 02:37 |
cfhowlett | gill6150_, booting from USB = temporary = no storage | 02:38 |

zacharypch | hi, i installed ubuntu 15.04 alongside windows 8 on a new laptop. when I boot windows, windows takes over the bootloader and renders ubuntu not bootable. I do unfortunately need both to work. here is the paste from boot-repair: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11486870/ | 02:55 |
zacharypch | i'd really appreciate any suggestions | 02:55 |
APerson_ | zacharypch: there's definitely an ask ubuntu question that provides an amazing level of troubleshooting detail | 03:00 |
APerson_ | it's about dual-booting windows 8.1 and ubuntu | 03:00 |
cmsea | sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable works best for me | 03:02 |
neotown | <zacharypch>you mean win8 is bootable but ubuntu is not? | 03:03 |
zacharypch | neotown, yeah grub loaded until i selected the windows boot manager, then windows took over the boot and now auto boots to windows, and i cannot select the ubuntu partition in bios anymore | 03:04 |
zacharypch | ok, i think i found the askubuntu thread, i'll brb. | 03:08 |

andrew_ | So, I am taking a Intro to Unix course at my University. I just started this week. I am wondering what sort of useful information there is on ubuntu. I have signed up for askubuntu.com | 03:18 |
andrew_ | what other resources are there? | 03:18 |
cfhowlett | !manual | andrew_ | 03:19 |
ubottu | andrew_: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 03:19 |
cfhowlett | andrew_, there is also the ubuntu wiki and www.fullcirclemagazine.org | 03:19 |
andrew_ | excellent thank you. wiki.ubuntu.org didn't seem helpful. You have to be part of the ubuntu team it looks like to use. is this correct? | 03:19 |

histo | kitty what are you trying to boot off usb? | 03:31 |
kittyfirekitty | ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64 | 03:32 |
histo | just use dd or win32 disk image to write the iso to the drive | 03:34 |
kittyfirekitty | i tried that, doesn't boot,when i select it in the bio boot menu, it just flickers the screen and bounces back to the bios boot menu | 03:34 |
kittyfirekitty | the windows utility stuff anyways, thats why i'm downloading the 32 bit iso, so i can virtualize that and use linux utils | 03:35 |

lotuspsychje | morning to all | 04:08 |
karmeeko | I just upgraded to 15.04 and now in my syslog i get multiple 'Starting session c### for user myusername' why does this happen and how can i stop the noise? It happens every second | 04:09 |
neotown | it's noon now | 04:09 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: maybe a clean install can fix this, did you try creating another user? | 04:10 |
haskell__ | Is it a good idea to install ubuntu on a chromebook? | 04:10 |
haskell__ | Are there any performance hits or issues associated with doing this? | 04:11 |
karmeeko | This is a home server so i was trying to avoid reinstalling | 04:11 |
karmeeko | I have other users, if i create another user you think the message will go away? | 04:11 |
lotuspsychje | haskell__: there are tricks with crouton to install ubuntu on it | 04:12 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: can you login to another user to see if syslog has msges like that too? | 04:12 |
karmeeko | Ya lemme try | 04:12 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: wich ubuntu version did you came from? | 04:13 |
haskell__ | lotuspsychje, yer it's definitely possible, but is it a good idea? Would there be performance hits, driver issues, incompatibilities, etc? | 04:13 |
lotuspsychje | haskell__: we had users saying that they run ubuntu smooth on chromebook | 04:13 |
lotuspsychje | haskell__: in my opinion, ubuntu is always a good idea on hardware | 04:14 |
haskell__ | lotuspsychje, awesome! then I'm guessing if the specs of the chromebook is good enough, I should have no problem with running ubuntu on it, god I love ubuntu | 04:14 |
lotuspsychje | haskell__: you can always try xubuntu/lubuntu on it too | 04:15 |
karmeeko | lotuspsychje i came from 14.04 | 04:15 |
haskell__ | lotuspsychje, true, shopping around for chromebooks atm, feeling giddy that I can get pretty decent hardware for so cheap, and then strip out chromeos for ubuntu! | 04:16 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: you realize you upgraded from LTS to a non-LTS right? | 04:16 |
lotuspsychje | haskell__: chrome0s for me is like a bad nightmare :p | 04:16 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: 15.04 is supported only 9 months | 04:16 |
karmeeko | Ya after the fact :-( | 04:16 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: i would really reccomend you fresh install | 04:17 |
karmeeko | I thought that would be lts | 04:17 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: next LTS is 16.04 | 04:17 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: for server use best stay on lts | 04:17 |
lotuspsychje | its more stable | 04:18 |
karmeeko | I have 14.04 on a flash to fresh install ready if i couldnt get a fix | 04:18 |
karmeeko | I know i know - i just got excited | 04:18 |
knocktwice | karmeeko: sounds like systemd "fun" | 04:18 |
karmeeko | Whats the diff between 14.04.2 and 14.04.5? | 04:18 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: maybe a tail -f /var/log/syslog can help you show errors in realtime | 04:19 |
yamoonsun | Why is it that after I logged into my account, my Camera turned on for nearly a minute, and shut off immediately after I used the 'top' cmd via terminal | 04:19 |
knocktwice | NSA | 04:19 |
* yamoonsun would not doubt it | 04:19 | |
karmeeko | Ya fun in da butt | 04:19 |
knocktwice | hehe | 04:19 |
karmeeko | :-) | 04:19 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: you have skype or anything else installed? | 04:20 |
bojan | Can anyone share the document on how linux works and how does the command executes in the backend??\ | 04:20 |
yamoonsun | I don't have skype, and even if I did it wouldn't be on my start-up | 04:20 |
lotuspsychje | !manual | bojan | 04:20 |
ubottu | bojan: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 04:20 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: ubuntu version? | 04:20 |
yamoonsun | 14.04 | 04:20 |
knocktwice | bojan: huh? what are you trying to do? | 04:21 |
karmeeko | My syslog keeps saying 'starting session c#(number keeps incrementing) for user 'myuser'' then the next line says 'started session c# for user 'myuser' | 04:21 |
yamoonsun | There was a process called Whoopsie that disappeared moments after opening 'top' | 04:21 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: tryed creating another user to see if webcam jumps on also? | 04:21 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: spam lines in syslog are never good right | 04:22 |
yamoonsun | I have not, but this happened only today. | 04:22 |
bojan | Knocktwice:I want to prepare a document for my junior.In that i want to clearly say him that how command works and from where it works and how it findshe exact location?? | 04:22 |
karmeeko | right on | 04:22 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: maybe clean out the whole machine with bleachbit? | 04:22 |
knocktwice | bojan: try 'man bash' | 04:22 |
knocktwice | karmeeko: or some electromagnets | 04:23 |
karmeeko | lol | 04:23 |
yamoonsun | I /did/ install a package called cmatrix - Think that may could be the cause? | 04:23 |
bojan | Knocktwice:The whole structure of how linux commands and how it worksn at backend?? | 04:23 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: from official repo? | 04:23 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: if you doubt a rootkit, install clamav and rkhunter and scan whoel system | 04:24 |
yamoonsun | lotuspychje: I do believe so | 04:24 |
knocktwice | bojan the shell (often bash) is the intermediary between the person who types a command and the kernel that organizes what/when things get run | 04:24 |
knocktwice | the shell is between the user and the kernel | 04:24 |
karmeeko | Then every once in a while i do see 'dbus failed to start service' | 04:24 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: syslog and dmesg show anything related webcam? | 04:24 |
yamoonsun | Any reason clamav isn't in the software center? | 04:25 |
lotuspsychje | !info clamav | yamoonsun | 04:25 |
* yamoonsun is actually a new user, how do I check that. | 04:25 | |
ubottu | yamoonsun: clamav (source: clamav): anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line interface. In component main, is optional. Version 0.98.7+dfsg-0ubuntu0.15.04.1 (vivid), package size 95 kB, installed size 743 kB | 04:25 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: it is, sudo apt-get install clamav from terminal | 04:25 |
karmeeko | Maybe it will be best to go back to 14.04 | 04:26 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: yes, i would advise that mate | 04:26 |
knocktwice | bojan: you can learn a whole lot about how commands work by learning about bash | 04:26 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: too many syslog errors is not a good sign | 04:26 |
bojan_ | Knocktwice:Any idea?? | 04:26 |
bojan_ | Knocktwice:Or any document you are having?? | 04:27 |
karmeeko | lotuspsychje - thanks for the help & motovation :-) | 04:27 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: no prob mate :p | 04:27 |
karmeeko | +1 karma to you | 04:27 |
knocktwice | bojan: google 'man bash'. First hit. | 04:27 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: from LTS you can sleep on 2 ears for next 16.04 also | 04:27 |
karmeeko | When is 16.04 expected? | 04:28 |
lotuspsychje | !release | 04:28 |
ubottu | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 04:28 |
lotuspsychje | lets c | 04:28 |
yamoonsun | Am so confused, going to see if there's a clamav tutorial | 04:28 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: man clamav in terminal to see start command | 04:29 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: dont think there's a codename yet | 04:29 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: but ive read articles, that will be the best ubuntu ever | 04:29 |
karmeeko | Heh prolly assume shortly before 14.04 lts expires | 04:30 |
kalux | - | 04:30 |
karmeeko | I hope their upgrade process works better than 15.04 did for me | 04:30 |
yamoonsun | Does it automatically update? | 04:30 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: you just installed, so should be up to date database | 04:31 |
lotuspsychje | karmeeko: well lts to lts should work smooth | 04:31 |
yamoonsun | If I run clamscan in the future, will it automatically update before scanning? | 04:32 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: http://askubuntu.com/questions/114000/how-to-update-clamav-definitions-database | 04:33 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: freshclam command shows in man clamav? | 04:34 |
yamoonsun | Appreciate it, dude. | 04:34 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: np :p | 04:34 |
knocktwice | bojan: http://linuxcommand.org/learning_the_shell.php | 04:35 |
yamoonsun | I should be able to just run 'clamscan /' as root right? That will scan the whole filesystem? | 04:36 |
ucup | test | 04:36 |
lotuspsychje | yamoonsun: use sudo, not root | 04:37 |
yamoonsun | What's the difference? lol | 04:38 |
lotuspsychje | !sudo | yamoonsun | 04:38 |
ubottu | yamoonsun: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 04:38 |
yamoonsun | I mean, sudo vs sudo -i *shrugs* | 04:39 |
yamoonsun | Same thing, no? I just have to type sudo less times? | 04:39 |
=== it is now known as Guest21485 | ||
knocktwice | if you only use sudo (not sudo -i) you are less likely to shoot yourself in the foot | 04:40 |
knocktwice | then again, in '96 I deleted my system with a poorly place rm -rf, and I've been careful ever since | 04:41 |
knocktwice | so there's some good things that come from shooting yourself in the foot | 04:41 |
=== jackie is now known as Guest12865 | ||
yamoonsun | I love that command - Used to troll people in image boards with it. | 04:42 |
knocktwice | my fingers get scared when I start typing it. | 04:42 |
knocktwice | actually the biggest danger of running around as root is creating files with the wrong owner. | 04:43 |
=== miguel_ is now known as Guest83610 | ||
yamoonsun | What do you mean? Example? | 04:45 |
knocktwice | If something doesn't need to be owned by root, it shouldn't be. That can be a security hole. | 04:47 |
lotuspsychje | knocktwice: +1 | 04:47 |
knocktwice | If a script is owned by root and executable, and someone gets access to it, instant root access. | 04:47 |
yamoonsun | Fair enough =3 | 04:50 |
yamoonsun | How do you show a process in terminal after you've closed the terminal it was previous in? | 05:00 |
knocktwice | Hm.. oridinarily if you ran a program from a terminal, then close the terminal, all the programs that came from that terminal are killed. | 05:01 |
knocktwice | there are plenty of exceptions though. 'ps ax' and 'top' come to mind... but once a program is disassociated from the terminal I don't think there's a way to find its history. | 05:02 |
yamoonsun | Clamscan appears to be running in the background, so I just did sudo kill clamscan | 05:02 |
yamoonsun | Still seems to be running | 05:02 |
knocktwice | kill needs a pid | 05:02 |
knocktwice | killall? | 05:03 |
yamoonsun | I won't recognize the 'command'? I'll try the pid | 05:03 |
yamoonsun | That did it, but it's still odd that it didn't close by command | 05:04 |
knocktwice | lately there's been a nasty bout of people writing programs that respawn when killed. I think that's poor form. | 05:04 |
knocktwice | kill -9 should mean 'die now' | 05:04 |
robhol | "die and, this should really go without saying, freaking STAY dead" | 05:05 |
knocktwice | nod | 05:06 |
knocktwice | it's called SIGKILL for a reason, after all | 05:07 |
snkcld | yes but to be killed does not mean to be reaped | 05:18 |
snkcld | :P | 05:18 |

Zerant | hi all, i installed ubuntu 15.04 yesterday and got a problem that the internal dns isnt working and the external just partially | 07:45 |
logan___ | wtf is internal dns and external dns? | 07:50 |
Zerant | logan___, dont know how to put it, if i ping my storage server via name it wont resolve but if i ping the ip it works, if i ping google.com it works perfectly, but if i ping an server from a friend it wont work | 07:53 |
Zerant | if i ping the ip from the server it works | 07:53 |
somsip | Zerant: what 'names' are you using for the pings that wont work? | 07:54 |
Zerant | i tried some things ... just the hostname or hostname.domain | 07:56 |
somsip | Zerant: what have you done to create hostname->IP entries anywhere? | 07:56 |
Zerant | somsip, its generated in the router and i have the router as an dns server | 07:57 |
somsip | Zerant: From what you've ansered so far, it doesn't look like you understand how these things really work. What is your end goal? | 07:58 |
Zerant | i want to reach my homeserver via name not ip | 07:59 |
somsip | Zerant: from...where? The whole internet? | 07:59 |
Zerant | no | 08:00 |
Zerant | internal | 08:00 |
somsip | Zerant: from other computers connected to the same router? | 08:00 |
Zerant | somsip, just from lan... it works if i use ubuntu 14.04 with 15.04 it dont work | 08:00 |
Zerant | somsip, from this one | 08:00 |

Jaser | hi | 09:08 |
Jaser | Should I use ubuntu desktop or server for vmware workstation? personal use only | 09:09 |
Masked-Man | Desktop. | 09:10 |
Masked-Man | Server is only more lightweight. | 09:10 |
Jaser | I see, because I need to minimize process as much as possible | 09:11 |
Masked-Man | Server just comes without GUI and some programs. | 09:11 |
Jaser | I see, not so much difference between process? | 09:12 |
Masked-Man | Yeah. | 09:12 |
Masked-Man | If you care most about optimizing i would suggest Ubuntu net minimal, But it takes some tinkering. | 09:13 |
somsip | Jaser: install minimal and build up from there if you want really basic install at the start | 09:13 |
Jaser | I see 2 download options in desktop the LTS and other one. which one would you recommend? | 09:13 |
Masked-Man | LTS. | 09:13 |
Masked-Man | It's more basic. | 09:13 |
somsip | !LTS (not more basic, just supported for longer) | 09:13 |
ubottu | somsip: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:13 |
somsip | !LTS | Jaser (not more basic, just supported for longer) | 09:14 |
ubottu | Jaser (not more basic, just supported for longer): LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) | 09:14 |
Masked-Man | LTS is more stable. Basically non-LTS is testing. | 09:14 |
Jaser | Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" <--- minimal right? | 09:15 |
=== luminance_137 is now known as JonSnow | ||
Masked-Man | Yep. | 09:16 |
somsip | Jaser: no, 14.04 is 14.04, then there are packaged versions for Desktop, Server or Minimal (and the other flavours too) | 09:16 |
Masked-Man | Oh he thought Trusty was minimal? | 09:17 |
Masked-Man | Go to the Minimal section. | 09:17 |
somsip | Masked-Man: re-reading it, not so sure now. Either way he probably needs this for 14.04 minimal, which is a good recommendation IMHO https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 09:17 |
Jaser | exact page I went | 09:19 |
Jaser | I think I'll just install desktop LTS | 09:20 |

bojan | bazhang:Will it backup with the same permissions applied also?? | 09:29 |
bazhang | bojan, need more details | 09:29 |
bojan | bazhang:I want to backup the files and folders with the same permission as they have and the same permission should be automatically applied in its restore also | 09:30 |
bazhang | bojan, you want to create a restore point iso, like that? | 09:31 |
bazhang | !backup | bojan have a read here and decide | 09:33 |
ubottu | bojan have a read here and decide: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 09:33 |
bojan | I have some directories and files mounted on /mnt with some permissions applied on that folders..I want to take backup of that /mnt , if i restore the files the same permission for the files should also applied | 09:33 |

It worked before on this same distro and version but I formatted and reinstalled for my own reasons.. I've done a lot of googling and haven't come up with a solution, any ideas anyone? | 09:37 |

Ben64 | normally /home would be the largest and where you keep stuff | 12:08 |

ubuntunwb | hello everyone. I'm having the strangest issue with one of my machines. I'm running 11.10 and since this weekend, everything is running ridiculously slow | 13:10 |
ubuntunwb | its acting as a webserver, so we rarely reboot or shut it down | 13:11 |
ubuntunwb | I tried to reboot the machine but now I cant even load GRUB | 13:11 |
ubuntunwb | I'm holding shift after POST. The message "GRUB Loading" appears but it just doesn't load. And then I'm stuck at the "purple screen" | 13:12 |
ubuntunwb | I checked all the hardware but it seems everything is ok | 13:13 |
ubuntunwb | any clues on what could be happening? | 13:13 |
fellipe | hi all. How to set isc-dhcp-server to only bind/leases from wlan0 and never from eth0 ? | 13:15 |
ikonia | set the bind address | 13:16 |
fellipe | ikonia: hi. at dhcpd.conf? | 13:16 |
ikonia | in reality it will only offer IP's if the subnet is on that card too | 13:16 |
fowl | what would make audio skip in youtube | 13:16 |
fowl | is ubuntu broke | 13:16 |
ikonia | fowl: nope | 13:17 |
fowl | audio is broke then | 13:17 |
fowl | or its a feature? | 13:17 |
ikonia | fellipe: it's an init option | 13:17 |
ikonia | fellipe: just pass the interface name as a startup argument | 13:18 |
fellipe | ikonia: DHCPDARGS=eth1 ? | 13:18 |
ikonia | fellipe: that works | 13:18 |
fellipe | ikonia: I would like to set something inside dhcpd.conf | 13:18 |
ikonia | fellipe: you can't | 13:18 |
fellipe | ikonia: what can I do inside this file? | 13:18 |
fowl | is this the official ubuntu channel | 13:19 |
ikonia | fowl: yes | 13:19 |
ikonia | fellipe: in reality if your scope is on an interface that can't "see" that network, it won't offer addresses anyway | 13:19 |
ubuntunwb | what would cause GRUB not to boot? i'm clueless :\ | 13:20 |
ikonia | ubuntunwb: define "not to boot" | 13:20 |
fellipe | ikonia: so, if I have eth0 a.b.c.d/24 and wlan0 x.y.z.w/24 , and my range is x.y.z.0/24, so it will be restricted to wlan0, right? | 13:21 |
ikonia | fellipe: yes, | 13:21 |
hateball | ubuntunwb: if it's been "very slow etc", have you checked the HDD? if you run 11.10 I am guessing it is not very new hardware | 13:21 |
ikonia | who said 11.10 ? | 13:21 |
fellipe | ikonia: so many thanks | 13:21 |
ubuntunwb | after POST, i'm stuck at a "purple screen" - srry i dont know the name of it | 13:21 |
ryliefer | i'm currently running on x.org x server-nouveau display driver...i have a nvidia 720M and would like to switch to it..help please? | 13:21 |
ubuntunwb | also, GRUB isn't loading at all | 13:22 |
ikonia | ubuntunwb: if it's started to boot - grub has already loaded | 13:22 |
ubuntunwb | all I'm seeing is a message stating: "GRUB loading" | 13:22 |
ubuntunwb | then i'm stuck at that screen | 13:22 |
ikonia | ubuntunwb: you said you hahd a purple screen a minute ago | 13:23 |
ikonia | which is it ? | 13:23 |
ubuntunwb | its just purple. nothing in it. Right after the message saying that GRUB was loading | 13:24 |
ubuntunwb | although the message and the screen are 15minutes apart | 13:24 |
ikonia | ubuntunwb: grub has already loaded and it started to boot | 13:25 |

ubuntunwb | but i'm seeing the same, except its not a VM | 13:27 |
ikonia | ubuntunwb: are you using ubuntu 11.10 ? | 13:27 |
ubuntunwb | yes I am | 13:29 |

pryorda | ikonia: if only | 14:36 |
ikonia | what do you mean "if only" thats how you back them up | 14:36 |
ikonia | then if you look at the init script it reads the file from a location, just put that file in that location | 14:36 |

dStruct | quick question for you guys relating to SSH, I have a -L local port forward I use and I fully understand I could simply script something up in say Bash to shorten my command string up, however is there a way I could automatically setup a port forward when the user logs in, say using command= in my authorized_hosts perhaps? | 14:46 |
SchrodingersScat | dStruct: could that be something for cron? or may be other startup script methods | 14:48 |
dStruct | SchrodingersScat: I guess my question is more, how can you "add" a port forward to an existing SSH session? is there some command line magic to make that happen? | 14:49 |
SchrodingersScat | dStruct: oh, not afaik after it's connected | 14:49 |
dStruct | SchrodingersScat: maybe my question is better asked in #OpenSSH as the only way I can find to initiate a port forwarding is via initial command line from the client connecting in | 14:50 |
=== gct is now known as rochelimit | ||
ioria | dStruct, maybe ssh -l myuserid -L 7777:work:22 gate cat - (http://www.rzg.mpg.de/services/network/secure-shell/ssh-tunnelling-port-forwarding) | 14:53 |
somsip | dStruct: there is a man ssh_config entry to reuse existing connections that might be worth looking up | 14:54 |
dStruct | somsip: hmm interesting, i'll have to check into that.. | 14:54 |
somsip | dStruct: ControlMaster | 14:55 |
dStruct | ioria: I don't believe that would work for my topology, I have basically a public server with firewalled ports, and I use SSH tunnelling to gain access from various clients across the interwebs from somewhat random IPs | 14:55 |
ioria | dStruct, i see | 14:56 |
dStruct | ioria: unless you can see a way to do what your link suggests without 3 hosts.. | 14:56 |
jpds | dStruct: Heard of https://github.com/apenwarr/sshuttle ? | 14:57 |
dStruct | somsip: is ControlMaster similar to AutoSSH? | 14:57 |
dStruct | jpds: no I have not | 14:57 |
voiter | how do i install gtodo? https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/gtodo/ | 14:58 |
somsip | dStruct: I've used it for multiple connections before I discovered tmux. So I'd connect to a server, slowly through negotiation. Second ssh to same server would be instant. No idea if it helps you on your query any | 14:58 |
dStruct | somsip: sorta, basically I just want when I SSH into this server once I'm authenticated it will automatically build my tunnel/port forward, essentially just simplifying my ssh user@host -i /what/ever/key | 14:59 |
somsip | dStruct: I understand, but have no idea if it will work like that which is why I pointed at the man page | 14:59 |
jpds | dStruct: You want to SSH to a host, via another host? | 14:59 |
dStruct | jpds: I ssh from a cygwin term into a Ubuntu 14.x box which hosts services I would like to access that are firewalled from the public | 15:00 |
Digistras | Hi guys... | 15:01 |
Digistras | between sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, whcih should be used first? | 15:02 |

x4w3 | update of course :P | 15:02 |
Digistras | or rather in which particular order should they be used? | 15:02 |
somsip | Digistras: update, upgrade, dist-upgrade if upgrade tells you need it | 15:03 |
x4w3 | or full upgrade but its the same | 15:03 |
jpds | dStruct: Yeah, try sshuttle. | 15:03 |
dStruct | jpds: ok, thanks i'll check it out | 15:04 |
dStruct | jpds: I may just write a dumb bash script to just simplify it, that would essentially do what I'm wanting, it's just not nearly as cool as if SSH would let me do it server-side :D | 15:04 |
Razzdoll | Ok sorry I just got back, did anyone know the answer to my question? | 15:07 |
somsip | Razzdoll: can you repeat it?> | 15:07 |
Razzdoll | somsip; sure, I had asked if anyone knew anything about the cairo-dock. I do understand this isn't #cairo-dock, but I can't seem to get anything out of those guys for a few days, and cairo won't let me add icons/programs. | 15:08 |
mgolisch | Razzdoll: what error do you get? | 15:10 |
Razzdoll | mglisch, no error; but, when i goto add a custom launcher, it asks for a image or 'path' name. I hit the /usr/bin/<whatever-its-called>, but the image is still a bubble question mark, and doesn't operate or perform | 15:13 |
mgolisch | did you select an image? | 15:13 |
mgolisch | application images are usualy in /usr/share/pixmaps/ | 15:14 |
Razzdoll | mgolisch, I selected the program in /usr/bin itself. Cairo will only let me select one command line (image or application path). | 15:14 |
Razzdoll | mgolisch, I am mistaken. I just looked, it says image path, and then command to launch on click. Whatever that meams | 15:15 |
mgolisch | and it doenst work without the image? | 15:15 |
Razzdoll | means* | 15:15 |
acro458 | Does anyone have any idea if there is a linux program similar to this: http://www.seattlelab.com/slnet_about/ | 15:15 |
mgolisch | is this something that doenst has a launcher allready? if not just use the existing launcher | 15:16 |

blackflow | and IIRC it was fully installable like that when I tried it last time in 14.04, I wonder what changed. I see I can download and start the launcher from steampowered.com | 17:06 |
OerHeks | the steam package is just a installer of the steam.deb from their website. that deb installs a package and adds a repo to your sources | 17:07 |

mgolisch | NoNick: if thats a supported distribution for the utility, if not probably not | 17:20 |
NoNick | mgolisch: yep its not officially there | 17:20 |
mgolisch | bishops: so no app detects the camera? | 17:20 |
mgolisch | NoNick: then probably not | 17:21 |

bishops | Isn't there like a standard command line to manually detect hardware? | 17:32 |

R13ose | no thoughts on my question? | 17:32 |
mgolisch | bishops: so do you see the camera device? | 17:33 |
wafflejock | tiblock, what are you actually trying to install on is it just a flash drive or some microcontroller? | 17:33 |
mgolisch | bishops: lsusb -v should give more info | 17:33 |

wafflejock | tiblock, regular full ubuntu-desktop meta package will install everything listed here which is probably over 900 http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-desktop | 17:34 |
camoufl4g3 | hello everybody | 17:34 |

camoufl4g3 | how i can install skype on ubuntu ? | 17:38 |
shurtagul | Oh I just had a similar question | 17:38 |
wafflejock | camoufl4g3, sudo apt-get install skype (in a terminal), or use the software center | 17:39 |
camoufl4g3 | thanks wafflejock | 17:39 |
wafflejock | camoufl4g3, np | 17:39 |
shurtagul | Is 4.3 on skypes website the latest version? It was released for ubuntu 12.04 | 17:39 |
bishops | wafflejock: I'm just trying to figure out why my webcam is not working. less important but still cool if fixed, one usb port also is not working | 17:39 |
bishops | wafflejock: when i run lsusb i'm not sure what is what though | 17:39 |
wafflejock | bishops, hmm yeah so you can paste.ubuntu.com the lsusb output, (or sudo apt-get install pastebinit, then run lsbusb|pastebinit) | 17:40 |
mgolisch | what devices does it show? | 17:40 |
wafflejock | bishops, I should be able to pick out the camera I imagine | 17:40 |
=== MrHeavy__ is now known as MrHeavy | ||
wafflejock | bishops, then it'll have the device id and we can look up any issues | 17:40 |
bishops | wafflejock: that would be great thank you! should I paste lsusb -v ? or just lsusb? | 17:41 |
wafflejock | bishops, use the -v flag, actually the -k flag is good to so we get to see any driver/kernel module that's active for the devices too | 17:41 |
nicomachus | hi guys, I was trying to upgrade to 15.04 (from 14.10) but got a warning that there was not enough available space in /boot. I can't re-partition right now, so need some help deciding to clear out: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11501282/ | 17:42 |

henry8989 | anyway to force install the old nvdia 173 drivers manually in ubuntu 14.04? | 17:42 |
Scriptonaut | hey guys, so when I installed my OS, I remember setting swap to 4GB or something like that. However, when I htop, it shows that I have 0 swap. I've been occasionally getting crashes that I suspect are caused by running out of memory (only 2GB of ram). Anyone know how I can set swap again? | 17:42 |
wafflejock | Scriptonaut, run free -m to see the swap space you have | 17:43 |
bishops | wafflejock: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11501299/ | 17:43 |
wafflejock | Scriptonaut, check the swapon and swapoff commands for activating or deactivating the swap space | 17:43 |
bishops | wafflejock: I couldn't do lsusb -k doesn't seem to exist | 17:44 |
Scriptonaut | thanks wafflejock | 17:44 |
wafflejock | bishops, ah my bad was thinking of lspci | 17:44 |
bishops | wafflejock: no worries, should I do that? | 17:45 |
wafflejock | bishops, nope for usb connected devices lsusb should have it | 17:46 |
mgolisch | no webcams are not connected using pci usualy | 17:46 |
wafflejock | bishops, lspci is just gonna be for like video card and the USB hub controller (chips on the board in a laptop or on expansion boards in a desktop) | 17:46 |
ivan_on_trac | because it does not work in Ubuntu? sudo service network restart | 17:47 |
bishops | wafflejock: Ah ok, yes was reading what it gave it seems more connected to Audio and VGA, but it does mention usb controller | 17:47 |
wafflejock | bishops, weird lists mine 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 (rev 04) just FYI in this listing the number on the far left with the : in between 8 characters is the device id and you can typically look up bugs or fixes using that id | 17:48 |

=== abdul is now known as Guest45381 | ||
bishops | wafflejock: so you think there are solutions? | 17:53 |
shurtagul | Thanks EriC^^, it seems to be the same one as the deb, but installing the deb says theres an older version in the software channel | 17:53 |
wafflejock | bishops, did you do a big update to the system recently including any kernel updates you're aware of or might have happened since last rebooting or is this a persistent problem? | 17:54 |
wafflejock | bishops, it seems we may have lost the top part of your intended paste as well but the missing USB device got me to a thread where the issue was solved by a reboot and was due to some kernel updates that hadn't fully taken effect | 17:55 |
bishops | wafflejock: I've just ran an update that mentions some socket thing | 17:55 |
bishops | wafflejock: but otherwise have been updating very often | 17:56 |
bishops | i can try to restart my system and see | 17:56 |
wafflejock | bishops, has this been a problem between reboots though as well? like tried hooking the camera up after rebooting | 17:56 |
wafflejock | if not give it a go it's an easy check | 17:56 |
bishops | wafflejock: it has been a problem ever since I re-installed ubuntu 14.04 from scratch on the laptop | 17:56 |
wafflejock | bishops, also can you paste up the lsusb without the -v so we just get the short list | 17:56 |
bishops | here we go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11501555/ | 17:57 |
EriC^^ | shurtagul: can you paste apt-cache policy skype and the error you're getting in paste.ubuntu.com ? | 17:58 |
camoufl4g3 | how I can see listenin ports on terminal ? | 17:59 |
EriC^^ | camoufl4g3: netstat -tuln | 17:59 |
camoufl4g3 | thanks | 17:59 |
wafflejock | bishops, hmm okay so not getting anything from that really... do you have the device model can try to search based on that | 18:00 |
bishops | wafflejock: sorry for the hassle, but how do i get the device model? | 18:01 |
mgolisch | its the builtin webcam of the laptop | 18:01 |
mgolisch | did you disable it somehow? | 18:01 |
wafflejock | bishops, wait is this a built in webcam or a USB attached webcam? | 18:02 |
bishops | wafflejock: no built in | 18:02 |
wafflejock | ah okay yeah I think lspci is the right place to look then | 18:02 |

bishops | mgolisch: if disabled how to know/check | 18:05 |
mgolisch | bios/uefi settings? | 18:05 |
Delta706 | If I resize a partition with gparted, does it take into account the fact that kernel images should not move? | 18:05 |
bishops | mgolisch: how to check bios/uefi settings? | 18:06 |
mgolisch | bishops: usualy pressing some key while booting up, F2 or del or something, check your laptops handbook | 18:07 |
Delta706 | F2 works for me | 18:07 |
bishops | mgolisch: ah ok that bios, but once in it how to look for webcam being disabled? | 18:07 |
mgolisch | dunno checks if theres something about the webcam somewhere | 18:08 |
bishops | mgolisch: Ok thanks! | 18:08 |
wafflejock | mgolisch, bishops yeah you are correct sir | 18:10 |
wafflejock | mgolisch, just checked with my built in web cam | 18:10 |
wafflejock | mgolisch, bishops it was disabled with the function key for enabling/disabling the web cam | 18:10 |
bishops | wafflejock: ok will check bios and see if I can find something to enable | 18:10 |
wafflejock | doesn't show up in lsusb, enabled it and then was able to lsusb and see it and use it in guvcview | 18:11 |
bishops | Will be back! | 18:11 |
gghhgg | hey i can't figure this out.. how do you install ubuntu 14.04.2 without using wubi??? | 18:11 |
gghhgg | 64bit | 18:12 |
wafflejock | !wubi | gghhgg | 18:12 |
ubottu | gghhgg: Wubi was a way to install Ubuntu from within Windows, but it is no longer supported in recent versions of Ubuntu and was never well maintained even for Ubuntu 12.04. Do not use Wubi. See !install for other options for installing Ubuntu. | 18:12 |
wafflejock | gghhgg, you should just follow the regular installation method essentially either burn a DVD or make a bootable USB | 18:13 |
wafflejock | !install > gghhgg | 18:13 |

superbuntu | hi, The Ubuntu installer / fdisk from Ubuntu live installer doesn't detect partitions on my ssd. There are partitions on this SSD (ext2 /boot, extended partition with lvm ext4 Ubuntu system) install into a laptop. I'm front of big issue with installer detect my partitions and with install grub2 on the disk. I have try some 20 or 30 times and it's absolutely impossible to install grub (working with boot repair after installation wi | 18:29 |
superbuntu | thout boatloader) but it's working well with the disk into my laptop. | 18:29 |
camoufl4g3 | why I cannot send any message to other channel ? | 18:32 |
superbuntu | http://paste.ubuntu.com/11502155/ this is insane and make me crazy... I have also tried to install fedora 22 and debian 8 with the same issue. It's possible to boot when installed with my laptop. but I can't install grub with installer except from boot repair. | 18:33 |

lambdu | hey guys, I have an encrypted Windows machine with a corrupted boot sector. Can I live boot into ubuntu and fix the boot? I'd rather not pay $1000 to have the data recovered | 18:37 |
superbuntu | lambdu, it's possible I think because of the boot sector can't be encrypted. You should try boot repair http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/boot-repair | 18:41 |
mgolisch | bishops: like whoever that was suggested try the fn keys on the laptop | 18:41 |
mgolisch | bishops: one might enabled the webcam | 18:42 |
lambdu | superbuntu, sweet! Thanks a lot! | 18:42 |
bishops | mgolisch: mm but the fn don't seem to apply to a webcam. | 18:43 |
bishops | mgolisch: the interesting thing is that I still have a usb port not working. | 18:44 |

EriC^^ | sor_: what do you mean by over the launcher/ | 18:53 |
EriC^^ | you mean minimize it? | 18:53 |
MonkeyDust | sor_ you can hide the launcher, in system settings | 18:53 |
EriC^^ | oh ok | 18:54 |
sor_ | MonkeyDust, is that an auto hide feature? i just want it when it's maximized | 18:54 |
MonkeyDust | sor_ system settings, appearance, behavior | 18:55 |
MonkeyDust | sor_ not sure if that can be done, maybe with !ccsm | 18:55 |
EriC^^ | you can make a keyboard shortcut to minimize it, or better yet like MonkeyDust said use ccsm to hide it when a window is minimized | 18:56 |

sor_ | MonkeyDust, thanks | 18:58 |
sor_ | What is more current fglrx or fglrx-updates | 18:58 |
EriC^^ | sor_: fglrx-updates has newer drivers | 18:58 |
sor_ | thanks | 18:58 |
wafflejock | ubuntuidiot, just means you have a 64-bit processor, on the citrix receiver of the options on the site would get the .deb file one since it'll be easiest to install with dpkg -i, keep in mind this won't get updates unless their deb file adds a repo to your sources.list | 19:00 |

EriC^^ | of course | 19:07 |
superbuntu | lambdu, yes you can access to the bios of encrypted machine. | 19:07 |
lambdu | This was for my girlfriends mom. | 19:07 |
lambdu | She told me about it too late. | 19:08 |
lambdu | She sent it to a company that is charging her $1500... | 19:08 |
superbuntu | lambdu, the encrypted machine is only the hard disk drive | 19:08 |
EriC^^ | lambdu: for what? | 19:08 |
lambdu | $65 for assessment, $1000 for fixing it, and $500 for priority. I really with she came to me first | 19:08 |
lambdu | To either fix her boot partition or recover her encrypted data. | 19:08 |
EriC^^ | recover her encrypted data? | 19:09 |
lambdu | She has the password. | 19:09 |
EriC^^ | oh | 19:09 |
superbuntu | lambdu, even if the machine can't boot about boot sector damaged, you can plug the hard disk drive into another computer and unlock the encrypted partition (if you know the passphrase) and save your data on another disk | 19:09 |
Ben64 | should report them as a scam | 19:09 |
Johnny_Linux | big time scam | 19:09 |
bray90820 | If i did --delete with rsync and the drive was down would it delete every file or not delete anything | 19:10 |
superbuntu | bray90820, I think rsync delete your files after coping them. So if the rsync command has finished, your data was deleted. I think so... | 19:10 |
lambdu | I'm really shaken by this.... $1500... sadness 100% | 19:11 |
MonkeyDust | bray90820 what superbuntu says is correct, i use that option too | 19:11 |
superbuntu | MonkeyDust, thanks about confirm ;-) | 19:12 |
MonkeyDust | bray90820 more precisely: if a file no longer exists on the source, it's delete in the destination too | 19:12 |
MonkeyDust | deleted* | 19:12 |
lambdu | It's a 30 minute process! No one should be paid $1500-$3000 per hour! | 19:13 |
MonkeyDust | lambdu stick to support questions | 19:13 |
bray90820 | MonkeyDust: Yes but if the source can't be found would it delete it from the destination? | 19:13 |
lambdu | sorry | 19:13 |
lambdu | Alright, thanks for the help guys :) | 19:13 |
MonkeyDust | bray90820 yes | 19:14 |
bray90820 | MonkeyDust: What I want is for the source and destination to be a mirror of each other but not delete anything if the drive goes down if that's possible | 19:15 |
tgm4883 | bray90820: then you need to craft your rsync command/script to ensure the drive is up | 19:15 |
OerHeks | bray90820, don't touch the --delete option then | 19:16 |
tgm4883 | bray90820: either A) put it in a script that checks if the drive is up first (maybe it looks for something that is always there), or B) (untested) you have the content of the drive be a folder deep on the drive, then if the folder doesn't exist (because the drive isn't mounted) rsync should (in theory) just error out | 19:17 |
superbuntu | bray90820, add a test condition before executing your rsync command is another way? | 19:17 |
tgm4883 | I've have to test option B though | 19:17 |

The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 19:25 |
Ben64 | bitpimp: iptables isn't going to stop a ddos | 19:26 |
popey | bitpimp: bitpimp is the "iptables" package installed? | 19:26 |
popey | bitpimp: the binary is /sbin/iptables - maybe it's not in your path? | 19:26 |
bitpimp | I thought about limiting connections per IP, as each IP is generating a lot of traffic. | 19:26 |
bitpimp | popey: it's not, but I thought it was a default element. | 19:26 |
lotuspsychje | if the attack is large, nothing much you can do indeed | 19:26 |
bitpimp | popey: nothing in sbin | 19:26 |
bray90820 | MonkeyDust: That's exactly what I am doing once I get the options right I will use it for production | 19:26 |
bitpimp | so it's not installed, but I thought I'd do a sanity check here before installing it | 19:27 |
popey | bitpimp: is this your own server, or a server you rent from someone else - like a VPS? | 19:27 |
popey | because if the latter then it may be a custom install | 19:27 |
bitpimp | popey: it's a VPS | 19:27 |
popey | there you go then | 19:27 |
bitpimp | aha | 19:27 |
popey | blame the provider :) | 19:27 |

lotuspsychje | ioria: found an 11.10 one: http://design.canonical.com/2011/10/so-youve-decided-to-make-an-ubuntu-promotional-video/ | 19:44 |
lotuspsychje | wiricus: from wich version did you upgrade? | 19:45 |
wiricus | mm 12.xx | 19:45 |
lotuspsychje | wiricus: graphics card chipset and driver loaded? | 19:45 |
lotuspsychje | wiricus: can you explain what happens exactly? | 19:47 |
ioria | lotuspsychje, that's good... but don't forget one for Lubuntu, for poor people :þ | 19:47 |
wiricus | lotuspsychje, Not sure about card chipset (or what that is). I downloaded Intel Graphics Installer for driver update, but get error that Distribution is not supported | 19:47 |
wiricus | lotuspsychje, Have screenshot, figuring out where to upload | 19:48 |
lotuspsychje | wiricus: you can check sudo lshw -C video | 19:48 |

aragonite | hi! I am trying to monitor about a dozen log files that are on windows servers, about 1.5mb each. They are mounted via cifs. Is there a package I should be using? Preferably web interface, I don't want to reinvent the wheel. I thought about setting up shinken, but it seems like an overkill | 19:53 |
sor_ | other then mkdir | 19:53 |
h3x89 | sor_ cp other dir and erase it :) | 19:54 |
wiricus | lotuspsychje, http://pastebin.com/7j7UjFvQ Did that work? | 19:54 |
ioria | CowboyPride, sudo /etc/init.d/munin-node force-reload ... not working ? | 19:54 |
sor_ | h3x89, should it not be able to right click? | 19:55 |
lotuspsychje | wiricus: you have 2 screens? | 19:55 |
wiricus | no | 19:56 |
sor_ | h3x89, can't right click on desktopn either | 19:56 |
lotuspsychje | wiricus: driver seems good for display 0 | 19:56 |

lotuspsychje | gartral|2: play with ccsm for unity plugins/settings | 19:57 |
CowboyPride | ioria: I thought there was a munin server and a munin-node | 19:57 |
sor_ | ok better question should I be able to right click to make a dir in files on launcher or on desktop? | 19:57 |
CowboyPride | munin-node works | 19:58 |
CowboyPride | but doesn't munin "server" need to be running too? | 19:58 |
gartral|2 | lotuspsychje: I had a better idea, get rid of Unity all together | 19:58 |
lotuspsychje | gartral|2: unity runs nicely here | 19:59 |
CowboyPride | Trying to figure it out because I've added some other systems but they aren't showing up on munin graphs after waiting two days | 19:59 |
ioria | CowboyPride, if you edited /etc/munin/munin.conf the command is that, i remember | 19:59 |
Bashing-om | sor_: I am not on unity, but I would expect that in order to make s new file That one would have to have the file manager open . Then in the menu choose "new file" (??) . | 19:59 |

sebastien__ | EriC^^, nothing, no file of this type | 20:36 |
ubottu | scriptor_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall | 20:36 |

=== CPUID is now known as Guest91124 | ||

EriC^^ | sebastien__: hmm, type sudo adduser <newuser> | 20:40 |
EriC^^ | and see if you can login | 20:40 |
scriptor_ | If "$" is sudo why are people putting "$'" which does not work in ubuntu instead of sudo? | 20:41 |
EriC^^ | scriptor_: $ is the shell prompt | 20:41 |

utu8o | so can anyone play videos from this website using Ubuntu? http://www.bnn.ca/Video/player.aspx?vid=625997 | 21:31 |
ock_ | Hi Bashing-om , I have a normal Bios system. I followed the instruction guides on the offical website and loaded the iso data on a usb stick(16gb). When i start my system i can choose several options like "try ubunutu" or "install" | 21:32 |
pertplus | hi, is it normal that certain folders in / have an older date than the date i installed the system? | 21:32 |
pertplus | i.e. the /srv/, /mnt/ and /selinux/ folders have dates from 2012 even though the rest have the date in 2013 i installed the system | 21:33 |
ock_ | The problem is, if i choose install i can choose the language, connect to wifi and choose the installation i want(alongside windows). But i cant clikc Next/continue , only continue by restart. | 21:33 |
genii | pertplus: That's entirely normal. | 21:33 |
ock_ | and then it all begins from the beginning | 21:34 |
reisio | utu8o: problem with their website | 21:34 |
pertplus | genii: why does it do this? related to when the install cd was prepared, or ? | 21:34 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, it's updating, i have a bad connection... lol | 21:34 |
almark | ock_ there should be some partition option stuff afaik | 21:35 |
genii | pertplus: The files preserve the timestamp of when they were created, which means their original creation date, not when they were copied someplace | 21:35 |
genii | pertplus: Their timestamps only usually change if they are altered | 21:35 |
ock_ | alamark: yea it should ... that part is missing :/ and i have no clue why | 21:36 |
almark | perhaps your installer media is faulty sortof ock_ | 21:37 |
Bashing-om | ock_: That is a strange issue. NOT normal ... Maybe we best look at what the hard drive partitoning is presently ? In "try ubuntu" mode activate GParted and show us a screenshot from the utility depicting the hard drive that you will install ubuntu onto . | 21:38 |
pertplus | genii : i see, thank you | 21:39 |

OerHeks | ock_, oke then there might be an other problem, you cannot install alongside windows, did you make space for ubuntu? from within windows preferrably | 21:52 |
Bashing-om | ock_: Good, we are back to examining the hard drive, see if we can spot a problem; a screenshot from GParted ( partition editor) is the fastest means to 'see' . | 21:52 |
OerHeks | yeah, 4 primairy maybe | 21:52 |
ock_ | OerHeks: I did no space for ubuntu, just tried with "alongside windows", but there is enough space on my harddrive | 21:54 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: im going too install it and make a screenshot | 21:54 |
Bashing-om | ock_: IF you are usng a stander desktop install . GParted is included by default. Boot to the desktop, top icon is the dash, click on it and enter serach term "gparted" and activate with the forthcoming icon . | 22:00 |

OerHeks | or #ubuntu-discussion :-) | 22:02 |
Bashing-om | ock_: " already found it", means to me that you are aware that the 4 promary partitions available, Windows is using them all ? | 22:03 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: No i meant Gparted, not the problem. | 22:04 |
Bashing-om | sebastien__: Have not 'seen' you in a bit, how ya doing now ? | 22:04 |
OerHeks | err cannot suy anything, as we don't have specs of the system and what game and so on | 22:05 |
sebastien__ | Bashing-om, still trying to fix my issue ^^ | 22:06 |
blackflow | OerHeks: understandable. I thought maybe there are some general guidelines, like turn off X, turn on Y, ... | 22:06 |
sebastien__ | Bashing-om, talking with french in ubuntu-fr. a bit easier to me | 22:06 |
Bashing-om | ock_: OK, the problem is that there is a 4 primary partition limit in the bios partitioning shceme. Windows presently occupies all 4 of them . Will have to xfer the data from one of those partitions, and repurpose that partition as an 'extended' partiton and in this container make provision for ubuntu . | 22:06 |

Bashing-om | ock_: Often times the partions are labeled. linux terminal command ' sudo fdisk -lu ' may reveal that there is a "recovery partition" that you could copy off to a DVD. Repurpose that partition for ubuntu . - is but one way . | 22:15 |
bv | Sorry, I tried this" `find . -name "*.ext" -exec bash -c "echo $i && i=$((i + 1))" \;` | 22:15 |
EriC^^ | bv: are you trying to get the number of found files? | 22:16 |
bv | Yes but I'll use in somewhere later | 22:16 |
bv | It's not my main goal | 22:16 |
EriC^^ | bv: find ......... | wc -l | 22:17 |
bv | EriC^^: For example, I will use that value to copy these files like 1.ext, .ext ... | 22:17 |
bv | 2.ext, ... | 22:18 |
EriC^^ | bv: it wasn't working cause you need to use i=$(($i + 1)) | 22:18 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, i rebooted yes. how do i reinstall it? i don't know the exact syntax :o | 22:18 |
bv | EriC^^: still the same :/ | 22:18 |

Bashing-om | ock_: Not a good thing to dump Windows for ubuntu, there is culture shock . | 22:25 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: I still have a Laptop with Windows. I spend too much time for gaming anyway... so i would be able to concentrate more on programming and learning. | 22:27 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, also tried, and then nothing cause "no package pam_kwallet" found | 22:27 |
Bashing-om | ock_: For a 'beginner' you have the right of it . Dual boot Windows and ubuntu . Whne comfortable with ubuntu, then dump Windows . | 22:27 |
EriC^^ | sebastien__: it's pam-kwallet not pam_kwallet | 22:27 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, really? | 22:27 |
EriC^^ | yeah | 22:28 |
almark | Bashing-om imo the unity interface is more straigtforward than windows | 22:28 |
Bashing-om | ock_: Outstanding then to use this machine solely for ubuntu and learning ! .. I then have no reservations . | 22:28 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, oh god... it's done. i check | 22:28 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, ew, still the same black screen and back to the login | 22:29 |
EriC^^ | sebastien__: check /var/log/auth.log | 22:29 |
almark | ock_ it's weird to have a complete linux on a ntfs fs though | 22:29 |
EriC^^ | same error? | 22:29 |
Bashing-om | almark: ock_ I so have a high degree of appreciation for the unity interface . But does not fit my meager work flow . I boot to terminal myself. | 22:30 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: Hmm when you guys say so its maybe not such a good idea to do that | 22:30 |
EriC^^ | sebastien__: try sudo apt-get install libpam-gnome-keyring | 22:31 |
almark | if you really want to get the feeling of unix/linux you shouldn't have ntfs ock_ | 22:32 |
Bashing-om | ock_: When I relooked, I did see partitions as NTFS and then I saw " /media/ubuntu/XXXX " Beats me how things are working on this hard drive. ubuntu file system is ext4 by default; Windows is NTFS . | 22:33 |
EriC^^ | that's the live session i think | 22:33 |
ock_ | almark: so thats a against Windows and linux at the same time right? :) | 22:34 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: I have no idea to be honest... | 22:35 |
Bashing-om | EriC^^: Thanks, IF the liveUSB is 'sda' then that will go a long way in expalining, huh ? | 22:35 |
sebastien__ | EriC^^, nothing new with the libpam | 22:35 |
almark | well you can have a windows ntfs partition and a linux partion if you want | 22:35 |

sebastien__ | EriC^^, requirement "user ingroup nopasswdlogin" not met by user "sebastien" | 22:38 |

EriC^^ | ock_: ok, then just install as usual | 22:39 |

ock_ | EriC^^: Sorry , i wanted to say : Win7 was preinstalled on my PC. I would install it as ususal but Bashing-om suggested me not to do it because it will be quite a shock | 22:40 |
Bashing-om | EriC^^: ock_ That is all true, but IF 'sda' is the hard drive AND all partitions are NTDS, I get concerned seeing the mount points for 3 partitions as "/media/ubuntu" . Not what I had expected to see; for an internal hard drive . | 22:40 |
EriC^^ | sebastien__: it would login by itself without a password when ubuntu starts | 22:40 |

gh0strider | it does not say invalid password | 22:41 |
EriC^^ | Bashing-om: he's not installed ubuntu yet, you mean it's odd that he can mount the recovery partition from nautilus? | 22:42 |

knocktwice | gh0strider: I seem to remember having a similar problem -- something to do with a new kernel module to handle new out-of-band bus interfaces | 22:45 |
knocktwice | gh0strider: but I don't think that's related to the WM crashing. | 22:45 |

Bashing-om | ock_: How much ? as there was a small amount of 'free space' prior to removing the recovery partition. We do not want to confuse with that 1.00MiB space . | 23:35 |
Bashing-om | ock_: The installer will take care of formatting the partition . The default is ext4 . | 23:36 |

ock_ | Bashing-om: okay ext4. | 23:39 |
Bashing-om | ock_: I do expect the installer to take care of these details, but the partition will be "extended" and in this extended partition will be a minimum of a '/' and 'swap' partitions of type "logical" | 23:39 |

phix | Steve_Jobs: Aren't you dead? | 23:47 |
dsDestruktiv | you cant die when you're a good. | 23:48 |
dsDestruktiv | *god | 23:48 |
ock_ | bashing-om: Thanks for that link :D | 23:48 |
Bashing-om | ock_: Just to make sure we are always on the same page :) . | 23:49 |
Bashing-om | phix: Can you boot to the grub menu ? and from there -> advanced options -> recovery mode ? | 23:50 |
phix | Bashing-om: nope, no grub | 23:51 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: Thanks A LOT!! Installing right now :) | 23:51 |
Bashing-om | phix: backup a bit, then, and regroup . Is this an UEFI system ? | 23:51 |
phix | Bashing-om: Toshiba L650, it may be an ACPI issue so I am trying to apply an updated BIOS however I cannot find a flashing tool for it that will run off a boot disc / win pe image | 23:52 |
phix | Bashing-om: no | 23:52 |
Bashing-om | ock_: See ya on the other side ! | 23:52 |
phix | Bashing-om: 14.04 LTS worked on it | 23:52 |
Bashing-om | phix: Humm .. Dual booting and both systems are installed onto the same hard drive ? | 23:53 |
phix | I am not dual booting | 23:54 |
phix | I installed 14.04 first, it ran fine then I applied the 14.10 update, rebooted and black screen | 23:54 |
Bashing-om | phix: Let's see if we can get ya to the grub menu . Reboot and as soon as the bios screen clears depress and hold the right shift key -> grub menu . Yes ? | 23:55 |
phix | Bashing-om: I tried using flashrom to update BIOS but it recommends I don't use it | 23:55 |
Bashing-om | phix: Flashing rom is done from a DOS base . OEMs do not support us in that respect . | 23:56 |
phix | Bashing-om: I don't have a flashing tool | 23:56 |
phix | (that will work in DOS, the one that Toshiba ships requires windows with VC++ and other unneeded libraries for a flashing tool) | 23:58 |
Bashing-om | phix: IF ( and you are aware there is hazard in this ) you want to flash your bios there are ways to do it by building a DOS disk to do so . | 23:58 |
phix | Bashing-om: ok where do i get the flash tool from? | 23:58 |
ock_ | Bashing-om: again thanks a lot and good night. youre the real mvp - greeting from europe. | 23:59 |
