[05:27] murtaza_: Perhaps that card is no longer supported ? show the channel - in a pastebin - what you are working with ' lspci -vnn | grep -i VGA ' . [05:27] surgy: I assume the image you dd'ed to the sd card contained those two partitions. If not, I don't know what you did, and so hesitate to advise you. But if I were you, my next step would be to try and run gparted on the sd card. [05:29] Loshki: gparted will allow me to resize the one partition?

I also tried opening synaptic and going to preference->network [07:11] But it does not work === max_ is now known as Guest12926 === Guest12926 is now known as picmax [07:22] Is android studio is part of ubuntu repository [07:22] ? [07:27] rahuldev: It is not [07:29] pungi-man: There should be a setting somewhere in your /etc/apt/apt.conf or a file with the word "proxy" in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ [07:36]

how to know what is the avaiable commands/programs after installing a package using apt-get isntall? [07:37] Li: Typically you can read the man page for that - ex: man grep [07:41] im reinstalling windows on my vm. i have snapshots but i dont want to use them. will it use the snapshots automatically as with the other install?? [07:42] phiona: that might be a question better asked in the VM software's chann [07:42] s/chann/channel * === eddie is now known as Guest51162 [07:43] can you point it out to me slidinghorn ?? [07:45] where is the vm channel? oracle vm. [07:46] phiona: there is a #vbox channel for virtualbox if you like [08:07] ianddz [08:10] whats hapening? [08:11] whats happening, people? [08:25] Hi! Looks like my usb7 device hangs my lsusb output and also doesn't allow proper shutdown. How can I trace which physical device is /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb7? [08:28] tzarr: can you tail -f /var/log/syslog and plugin your usb to see errors when shutdown you can press F1 also to see text errors [08:33] lotuspsychje, thanks. Looks like Logitech C270 webcam didn't like the port in a cheap PCI USB controller for some reason. I've put it into other port, everything works fine now. [08:34] By the way, if I put Xbox360 gamepad into the same port, it works fine. That's odd. Okay, perhaps I shouldn't have bought a cheap controller on Aliexpress. [08:35] !yay | tzarr [08:35] tzarr: Glad you made it! :-) [08:35] I need some help with a shell script... what I want to do is slow down a process I am running. From Google, I have seen that I can use ps -u to find running processes under my control. (kill -L lists all the signals). If I run a .sh script where I loop "kill -SIGTSTP [pid] sleep0.1 kill -SIGCONT [pid] sleep0.1" can i successfully slow my process? [08:36] C0nfuseki: no, thats a horrible way to do that [08:36] Thank you. I'm glad I'm asking here [08:39] Hmmm... any other ideas that won't require me to download, or at least be a download that has some very important functionality? [08:39] (thank you for taking the time to read this) [08:40] c0ncealed: maybe the ##programming guys can be more of help with scripting?

Interesting Idea, but from the Task Manager, it seems to use almost 00% CPU. [08:43] (this has nothing to do with the computer hibernating or suspending) [08:46] @Eric. Would you endorse the use of CPULimit?

[09:02] lin_lin13: They're configuration files for various things, generally the things that they're named after. [09:02] ^ And as global system config files, default contains... [09:04] Are these files automatically run when the system is started? [09:05] @Eric. okay. i'll give it a go thanks. [09:11] I want to "ntpdate" runing when the system is started .so I use the command : sudo update-rc.d ntpdate defaults . But display error: files does not exist, [09:11] lin_lin13: they're sourced by system services [09:13] I'm not overly familiar with Ubuntu's ntp setup, but on Debian, if you have ntp installed and running at boot, adding -g to /etc/default/ntp (which is there by... default) does the equivalent of ntpdate on startup. [09:16] rww, under the /etc/default files will automatic run ?? [09:16] /etc/default/* is for configuration of system services, many of which automatically run [09:18] rww, rc(0---6).d control the files run ???

[09:18] ubuntu 14.04 [09:18] kylin [09:19] ubuntukylin 14.04 [09:19] then upstart controls which services are run [09:19] http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/ may be useful, or ask specific questions here :) [09:20]

how to know what commands/programs are available after installing a package? [11:20] <_curiousBeing> I tried : sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox [11:20] <_curiousBeing> but got the same message [11:21] you sure there is a package named emacs24-nox? [11:22] <_curiousBeing> josephyoung: yes, when I ran emacs for the first time, it showed me the list of packages present for emacs installation [11:23] <_curiousBeing> i'm using ubuntu 15.04 [11:23] CacheMoney1: suggesting --force-yes is unnecessary. It's better to provide the basic command "sudo apt-get install emacs" so that the user can see if anything suspicious comes through (errors, dependency problems, etc) [11:24] <_curiousBeing> also, I have the emacs 24.5 archive file aswell, if anycan can guide me how to install the nox version of it will also be fine.. :) [11:26] _curiousBeing: sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox Just to be sure that you know: that version does not support a GUI [11:26] <_curiousBeing> slidinghorn: i wanted the command line version only [11:29] <_curiousBeing> ok, if there is any command for installing emacs from tar.gz file with command line "nox" only mode? [11:30] _curiousBeing: There's no need to install from a tar.gz. Just use the version in the repos by using the command I posted to you [11:31] _curiousBeing: wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/e/emacs24/emacs24-nox_24.4+1-4ubuntu5_i386.deb [11:31] !java | yasushi [11:31] yasushi: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.

[11:35] _curiousBeing: again...unless you have a specific need for an unofficial version, you should be installing from the repositories as instructed [11:35] <_curiousBeing> josephyoung: sorry man, this says dependencies unsatisfiable [11:36] ^^ that's why [11:37] <_curiousBeing> I checked the repositories again and I could'nt find the nox version now.. amazing [11:37] add "deb http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu vivid main" in your "/etc/apt/sources.list", and try your command again, it may work [11:38] _curiousBeing: If you're running 15.04, it's there...again, sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox [11:41] try sudo-apt update first, and apt-cache search emacs24-nox [11:41] * slidinghorn gets the feeling he's being ignored, sighs & throws his hands in the air [11:42] slidinghorn: don't do pointless /me commands [11:42] (please) [11:42] you're right, sorry [11:42] not a big deal [11:47] <_curiousBeing> josephyoung: will thes commands take a lot of time to process? [11:48] _curiousBeing: the command josephyoung gave will not work. for the 3rd time, please just open a terminal and enter sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox [11:48] <_curiousBeing> I have very less data package on my network [11:49] _curiousBeing: it should tell you the total downloaded amount before it starts installing [11:49] <_curiousBeing> slidinghorn: ok, then I should stop the update process.. [11:50] <_curiousBeing> slidinghorn: he he, it showed me after the download completed [11:51] Hey guys I have a .sh file for serviio and when I dobule click it it just opens up the text [11:51] when I do it in console it says some library is missing but is not specific [11:52] Error: Could not find or load main class (2).library [11:52] <_curiousBeing> slidinghorn, josephyoung: now, the command "sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox" worked and installing fine [11:52] <_curiousBeing> thanks btw !!

[12:40] beccause it's normally mounted userspace, which is not what the system want and doesn't support things such as permisions, it will cause you problems [12:41] ary, will cause you SERIOUS problems [12:41] :( [12:41] fine [12:41] need to be an ext4 then === infinity_ is now known as baprath [12:56]

[13:04] I'm on a pretty new installation of ubuntu 14.04 and having some stability issues and video glitching issues. Have tried the drivers listed under Settings/Software and Updates/Additional drivers but the official Nvidia ones make my system really unstable (sometimes not even able to boot). The Nouveau driver is functional but sometimes glitches bad playing games (menus not displaying and other weird glitches) and occasionally have issues switching f [13:04] rom the game to the desktop (all video freezes but audio and network are still functioning). I'm using an Nvidia Geforce GTX 850M. Any ideas what I should do from here? [13:05] william_doe: I suspect you mean wine games [13:05] (or games run through wine) [13:06] No I'm playing terraria it has a linux version. [13:06] Hello [13:06] Im new here [13:06] interesting, swap away from the nv driver then and try nvidia [13:06] see if the current version is any better [13:06] anas, welcome. ask your ubuntu questions [13:06] check the xorg logs, [13:06] see if there is anything on what it's doing and why [13:06] ty [13:07] why people use IRC?

cfhowlett: yes it found it from terminal apttitude search but isn't launchable from it [13:07] i mean instead if skype or whatever similar, many peoples use IRC [13:07] anas, this is ubuntu support. that is the topic. [13:07] ikonia, i tried the nvideo drivers and it actually gets a lot worse. I usually can't even boot. I thought about using drivers from nvidia site...maybe even a beta driver but I'm kinda confused on how to install it [13:07] if=of* [13:07] william_doe: is the 850m one of those nvidia/intel ones, or just straight nvidia [13:08] ikonia, there is also an intel graphics processor on chip yes [13:08] so people use this unbuntu support to allow direct questions, right? [13:08] anas, yes [13:08] and each IRC channel has its own purpose [13:08] william_doe: there are some options, such as forcing performance mode, and disabling the intel switching that can make those cards in general more "stable" [13:08] william_doe: worth looking at those options [13:09] ah i see [13:09] ty cfhowlett [13:10] ikonia, okay i will google around those topics and see if i can come up with anything useful. thanks [13:11] Hello.
