[22:12] <jhutchins> bandio:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43x - Yes, you can download packages, transfer them, and install with dpkg -i.
[22:12] <Pinkamena_D> Hello, I am trying to convince my MIS team to allow some of the college computers to run ubuntu. What would be the best way to allow ubuntu computers to log into a windows domain? (for authentication only, no profile loading needed)
[22:12] <jhutchins> Pinkamena_D: samba/winbind.
[22:13] <jhutchins> Pinkamena_D: Supposedly works pretty well.
[22:13] <malinus> Nach0z, but yeah, if I didn't have to install wine from source, I wouldn't do it. But also I want to learn how to do basic stuff like this.
[22:13] <Pinkamena_D> do you have a tut you would recommend?
[22:13] <Suspiro> I've seen others post about the same issue on other hardware
[22:13] <eagles0513875> malinus: if you go to the wine website they have a ppa for the latest versions
[22:13] <Beldar> Pinkamena_D, Good luck with that, if they don't already I doubt they will change. The college I just graduated from had multiple open source labs
[22:13] <wheatthin> malinus the thing is, when you install other external packages, it breaks things. please stick to the repo, or you're going to continue to break things
[22:13] <jhutchins> Pinkamena_D: I'd start with the ubuntu wiki.
[22:13] <jhutchins> Pinkamena_D: No, I don't know of a specific one.
[22:14] <Pinkamena_D> thanks, I am starting here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[22:14] <Nach0z> malinus: the output from trying to install libp11-kit-dev seems to me that you're just on too old of a version of ubuntu for the libraries for the latest version of Wine
[22:14] <malinus> wheatthin, I guess I just shouldn't be using ubuntu then
[22:14] <Suspiro> Any way I could modify the network file and have ssh automatically run on boot? I don't necessarily need the display.
[22:15] <wheatthin> malinus if that's how you feel. But I'd take our advice, and do it the right way (according to Ubuntu)
[22:15] <eraggo> uhm err... howdy guys! I have a little problem. After last update (or so in linux) my recorded audio is given back as very fast-forwarded fassion. Am i only one having this issue? I tried to contact guys at #audacity but seems guys are offline
[22:15] <eraggo> and that only occurs on audacity
[22:16] <jhutchins> eraggo: You'll have better luck with the mailing lists/forums for audacity.
[22:16] <jhutchins> eraggo: That's an interesting problem and should probably be reported as a bug.
[22:16] <eraggo> ok. Still really weird that one hour changes alot lol :D
[22:16] <djapo> every time i try to login i get a message after the last login line saying ~/.profile:source:23: no such file or directory: ~/.profile
[22:17] <eraggo> uhm....... brb
[22:18] <bandio> jhutchins, there's not much information on the packages on this page, and some don't have downloads
[22:19] <jhutchins> djapo: sudo cp /etc/skel/.profile ~/. && sudo chown <user>:<user> ~/.profile
[22:19] <bandio> anyway, I'll find an ethernet connection, and try that way
[22:19] <bandio> thank you
[22:21] <Suspiro> liveCD display works flawlessly. Could it still be the hardware?
[22:21] <dougl> Suspiro, no
[22:22] <djapo> jhutchins: jhutchins i don't see that file in there
[22:22] <Suspiro> Any suggestions on a work around?
[22:23] <eagles0513875> can anyone explain to me how a file system and partition just vanish
[22:23] <djapo> jhutchins: i see a .bash_profile
[22:24] <qin_> eagles0513875: format?
[22:24] <madabyss> How can I change the SFTP root?
[22:24] <wheatthin> Suspiro, you can try a lower refresh rate or resolution. see if that helps
[22:24] <threexk> What is the default Ubuntu Twitter client?
[22:24] <eagles0513875> qin_: ntfs
[22:24] <eagles0513875> i have never had this happen before
[22:25] <wheatthin> Suspiro, if it does, then it's still definitely hardware
[22:25] <qin_> eagles0513875: in anyway you want to recover partition table. You sure it is correctly mounted?
[22:25] <Suspiro> Ok I'll try that out
[22:25] <eagles0513875> qin_: its not mountable at all
[22:26] <eagles0513875> command line and applications tell me there is no file system or partition on the dman thing
[22:26] <eagles0513875> damn
[22:27] <qin_> eagles0513875: sudo fdisk -l; what does it say
[22:28] <eagles0513875> Disk /dev/sdc: 1000.2 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>112 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121597 cylinders, total<PHONE_NUMBER> sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000  Disk /dev/sdc doesn't contain a valid partition table

[22:29] <wheatthin> but please use pastebin so you don't spam the channel
[22:29] <eagles0513875> wheatthin: that is all there
[22:29] <qin_> eagles0513875: You want to power off this drive, and most likely use testdisk
[22:30] <eagles0513875> qin_: its an external one
[22:31] <eagles0513875> qin_: what options do i giv eit
[22:32] <eagles0513875> ok having it search for lost partitions
[22:32] <djapo>  /join zsh
[22:33] <kevin__> Anyone know how to recover TomBoy notes from a Sychronised Local Folder?
[22:34] <Acceso> is there a way to search for applications via terminal ( a n00b ) here.
[22:35] <qin_> !testdisk > eagles0513875
[22:36] <hwilde> is anyone here familiar with .ssh ProxyCommands and nc ?  please ping me
[22:36] <eagles0513875> qin_: i have it installed already
[22:37] <daftykins> Acceso: 'sudo apt-get update' first to update package lists, then 'apt-cache search <thing to search for>'
[22:37] <qin_> eagles0513875: Great

[22:39] <hwilde> eTronik, there is an option to stick the cursor at the edges of things
[22:39] <dougl> eTronik, do you have a menu open?
[22:40] <LtRipley> hi

[22:46] <eagles0513875> Beldar: i hope so too
[22:46] <Beldar> eagles0513875, I believe they have at least on HD that will not run with linux, you might check that model.
[22:46] <Beldar> one*
[22:46] <eagles0513875> Beldar: since i got it it has been working fine with linux
[22:47] <Beldar> eagles0513875, might be a firmware issue is my thought.
[22:47] <eagles0513875> Beldar: why all of a sudden when its been working for a month now no firmware issues what so ever
[22:48] <dougl> ?
[22:48] <Beldar> eagles0513875, One never knows, all you can do is investigate the possibilities, how full was the HD?
[22:48] <eagles0513875> about 200g
[22:48] <eagles0513875> out of 1t
[22:48] <eagles0513875> im pissed off if i cant get my music back had about 11k worth of songs

[22:49] <eagles0513875> lol
[22:49] <dougl> lol
[22:49] <Beldar> eagles0513875, I have everything I can't lose backed up myself, I have 3 externals.
[22:49] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: This might be an opportune moment to mention backups.
[22:49] <eagles0513875> Beldar: not sure how much data you have but bitcasa.com is nice
[22:50] <eagles0513875> i was in the process of sorting and backing up my data to my bitcasa infinite storage account
[22:50] <dougl> need time machine for linux
[22:50] <eagles0513875> haha dougl
[22:50] <eagles0513875> yep
[22:50] <eagles0513875> dougl: what sucks is this is the 2nd drive which is on the way out potentially or not
[22:50] <hwilde> is anyone here familiar with .ssh ProxyCommands and nc ?  please ping me
[22:50] <dougl> oohhh
[22:50] <Beldar> eagles0513875, I have my grad papers and info in the cloud, but I have about a a terrabyte other wise.
[22:50] <eagles0513875> last week i found out my imac's hard disk is on the way out and that is over 2 yrs old and already on the way out
[22:51] <wheatthin> hwlide this isn't the place
[22:51] <eagles0513875> Beldar: bitcasa for 10 USD a month no limit on storage
[22:51] <eagles0513875> in the cloud there i already have close to 400G backed up
[22:51] <hwilde> wheatthin, why not, I am doing it in ubuntu.
[22:51] <eagles0513875> from music and everything in between
[22:51] <eTronik> re-installing proprietary nvidia drivers and runnign risk of making whole system go back to CLI...
[22:51] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: You might want to run smartmontools on them.
[22:51] <wheatthin> hwlide #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:51] <eagles0513875> i already ran that on my imac
[22:51] <hwilde> that is not offtopic @ wheatthin
[22:52] <eagles0513875> jhutchins: is smartmontools in the repos
[22:52] <wheatthin> hwilde, is something broken? lol no.
[22:52] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: Yes.
[22:52] <eTronik> I cannot understand why on earth the fade-in of the dash is hard-coded in the source code...
[22:52] <eagles0513875> jhutchins: anything special to run it
[22:52] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: Not really, you do need to check the logs regularly.
[22:53] <eagles0513875> jhutchins: ok does smart-notifier - graphical hard disk health status notifier  interface with the tools?
[22:53] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: No idea.
[22:53] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: I would guess it's an add-on.
[22:54] <eagles0513875> thats what im thinking
[22:57] <Ilmen2> Hello
[22:58] <Ilmen2> What are those files which have the same filename + extension as another files but with a ~ appended to it?
[22:58] <eTronik> what are disadvantage of OpenJDK vs Oracle JDK ? for Java development training / learning purposes
[23:00] <ariscop> eTronik, it's easier to get source code for rt.jar in openjdk, so you can step through the standard librarys, they're otherwise very similar
[23:01] <eTronik> ariscop, will I as a noob java programmer need access to rt.jar ?
[23:01] <eTronik> for anything that is ?
[23:01] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: Yeah, it's an add on, does what it says on the box.  Thanks!  I have it now.
[23:01] <ariscop> eTronik, it helps clarify things, if an api doesn't work as you expect stepping through it with the debugger is the most accurate way to learn
[23:02] <eagles0513875> jhutchins: odd i have nothing showing up on kde :X
[23:02] <eagles0513875> i know this is for unity support but os is the same being kde or unity
[23:02] <eagles0513875> jhutchins: how did you start it?
[23:02] <jhutchins> eagles0513875: Try logging out and logging back in.
[23:02] <eagles0513875> ok ill see it on next reboot
[23:02] <eagles0513875> i dont want to reinterrupt test disk
[23:03] <sunbird> sooooo.... trying again... anyone here know how to troubleshoot bluetooth or restore it to a clean state?
[23:03] <sunbird> this is on 13.10 where it _used_ to work prior to adding a new device, and now it won't start at all.
[23:04] <sunbird> i am happy to lose all my current settings and re-setup my devices, but to do that, i need to be able to start it. :\
[23:05] <hwilde> sunbird, what do you mean "now it won't start"
[23:05] <glitsj16> Ilmen2: http://askubuntu.com/questions/83026/prevent-gedit-from-creating-files-with-the-tilde-suffix
[23:05] <Ilmen2> thanks :)
[23:06] <sunbird> hwilde: if i start the bluetooth gui, and click on the off/on toggle, it switches to on for <1 second, then immediately switches back to off.
[23:06] <sunbird> hwilde: i tried shutting down and restarting, problem persists on a clean boot.
[23:06] <sunbird> hwilde: i've never had any issues with bluetooth before on this machine (lenovo x220)
[23:07] <glitsj16> Ilmen2: you're welcome, you can change the behaviour of gedit to suit your needs, info is detailed in that page
[23:09] <Hassen> wow...laziness and 0 motivation suckness are overloading me..
[23:09] <Hassen> any one who knows some low-medium level projects in github that i can contribute to?joining projects will increase my motivation
[23:11] <NEGATlVE> Is there any good Video Editing software in Ubuntu?
[23:12] <shrini> win 11
[23:12] <eTronik> NEGATlVE, you would have to define good, but ok... I'd say yes
[23:12] <shrini> NEGATlVE: openshot
[23:12] <Hassen> NEGATlVE, ubuntu software center > type video editor or whatever > see the comments and judge
[23:13] <eTronik> NEGATlVE, pro NLE lightworks
[23:16] <hwilde> sunbird, you must have some relevant log messages in /var/log/messages or dmesg or something, find them and pastebin them
[23:16] <hwilde> sunbird, /var/log/syslog
[23:16] <alami> hello, can any one help to change xterm color, i was on /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color but i can't see it
[23:17] <compex> Is there a way to disable compositing ?
[23:17] <lawltoad> Hi, trying to get ubuntu 13.10 running I get a failed to load r600 when I run glxgears
[23:17] <sunbird> hwilde: there was nothing in dmesg or syslog. i'll check messages, but can't do so until i'm home (@work atm). so i guess there's not a simple way to just restore it to a clean state? i tried apt-get remove --purge but didn't help.
[23:19] <compex> Would like to disable compositing to game
[23:19] <alami> hello, can any one help to change xterm color, i was on /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color but i can't see it
[23:20] <sponzor> hi. i seted up vsftpd ssl on ubuntu 12.04 server. i added users and tested. everything works fine.. now im trying to access files that i uploaded over ftp to server via browser. so when i go ftpserver:990 and then type in ftp:ftppass and see files.. can someone point me to the right direction for google on that?
[23:24] <Jordan_U> compex: Are you using Unity/Compiz?
[23:24] <daftykins> sponzor: you forwarded port 990 for control and a data-range for communications i take it?
[23:25] <Ilmen2> Sometimes when I edit files (usually system files) I get the warning "(gedit:4165): WARNING **: Could not load Gedit repository: Typelib file for namespace 'GtkSource', version '3.0' not found"
[23:26] <Ilmen2> what does this mean?
[23:26] <Ilmen2> Does it need some upgrade?
[23:28] <Ilmen2> Actually I think this happen only when I run gedit from the terminal
[23:29] <Jordan_U> compex: Compositing is already disabled for full screen apps by default (compiz's unredirect full screen windows).
[23:29] <X3MBoy> Well this should happen everytime
[23:31] <X3MBoy> try installing gir1.2-gtksource3.0 or similar
[23:32] <kristmundur> Hi
[23:32] <eagles0513875> Beldar: :) still running here
[23:34] <Ilmen2> X3MBoy: thanks for the suggestion
[23:35] <eagles0513875> well hell ill have to run testdisk at home work just finished
[23:37] <eagles0513875> Beldar: will restart the disk check when i get home i just finished work
[23:47] <timo_49> i shoul quit
[23:52] <anton02> i have two 128GB SSDs. I installed windows 8.1 on one of them. Then I installed ubuntu on the 2nd one, and made ubuntu use windows 8.1 EFI partition for UEFI boot. When I turned my computer on I was presented with only a grub prompt. So what I did was restore my windows8.1.img with dd back to the windows SSD hoping it would restore the EFI partition to its original form so I could at least then boot windows 8.1 again. But it did noth
[23:53] <anton02> the grub prompt. Why would this be?
[23:54] <Beldar> anton02, Do you still get the grub menu, and have you run sudo update-grub in ubuntu?
[23:55] <anton02> Beldar: I disconnected the ubuntu SSD after hoping to restore windows 8.1 UEFI boot
[23:56] <Beldar> anton02, Did you have windows in grub? Did you run sudo update-grub in ubuntu, two questions here.
[23:56] <anton02> Beldar: sorry, I meant to say I was presented with grub command-prompt, and not a menu
[23:56] <Beldar> anton02, Ah, did you try the bootrepair app at any time?
[23:57] <anton02> Beldar: Ubuntu was installed 2nd, so why would you need to run update-grub
[23:57] <anton02> Beldar: Yeah I've tried that but it didn't fix it
[23:57] <Beldar> anton02, sometimes grub needs this it has a os-prober to find other os's
[23:58] <nutter_> quick question - anyone else affected by the whole citrix issue ... I'm a noob at this but I got this far... if anyone can point me in the right direction I will forever be indebted
[23:58] <Beldar> anton02, That bootinfo summary that is generated with that app is important it is a detail script of what is there.
[23:58] <anton02> Beldar: But even so, it should still be able to boot at least ubuntu which it couldn't so the problem likely lies elsewhere
[23:59] <anton02> Beldar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6514668/
[23:59] <Beldar> anton02, In a perfect world yes, but when searching for answers on your own you can make things worse, the description is a bit hard to follow is all of what you have done.
