[00:11] <Apachez> gitso looks promising
[00:11] <Apachez> less problems than with x11vnc
[00:11] <Apachez> however it doesnt seem to support scaling
[00:11] <Apachez> at least not out of the box
[00:12] <OerHeks> vnc scaling?

[00:30] <x00x90> Guys, i'm trying to remove then install bind,i did removed it using apt-get remove bind9, but when i try to install it again i'm getting a error that /etc/init.d/bind9 not found
[00:31] <x00x90> i did deleted it because i messed it up so i'm trying to reinstall bind so it can be created again
[00:31] <x00x90> how can i bypass this error when installing using apt-get ?
[00:31] <x00x90> if i use dpkg-reconfigure bind9 i'm getting the same error because the file is missing
[00:35] <OerHeks> x00x90, what ubuntu version do you have??
[00:35] <x00x90> 12.04
[00:37] <OerHeks> x00x90, what error do you get tru terminal ?
[00:38] <x00x90> invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/bind9
[00:38] <OerHeks> x00x90, after removel bind9. did you reboot?
[00:38] <OerHeks> might worth a try
[00:39] <x00x90> OerHeks: i did "touch /etc/init.d/bind9" then apt-get install bind9 but it didn't recreated the script
[00:39] <x00x90> OerHeks: i will reboot the machine
[00:40] <OerHeks> i'll wait.
[00:41] <jazzychris> hi hi evrybudy
[00:41] <HappyNewYear13> it's been a while since i've installed ubuntu from an iso image. now 14.10 image weights 1GB. what the hell. how am i gonna burn into a 700CD. i don't have a dvd burner, only CD. help
[00:41] <bhalash> HappyNewYear13: Do you have a USB key?
[00:42] <HappyNewYear13> bhalash, how much USB space i need?
[00:42] <bhalash> HappyNewYear13: A $8 USB drive will take the ISO fine
[00:42] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, get the mini iso
[00:42] <bhalash> HappyNewYear13: The ISO is like 850MB right? So that much.
[00:42] <HappyNewYear13> i only have a 256mb usb
[00:42] <OerHeks> you'll need internet to install the desktop then
[00:42] <OerHeks> !mini
[00:42] <OerHeks> 73 mb if iremember correctly
[00:42] <x00x90> OerHeks: its working now, thanks :)
[00:43] <bubbasaures> HappyNewYear13, You can boot the iso with grub
[00:43] <HappyNewYear13> i have an MP3 player. will it work?
[00:43] <OerHeks> x00x90, great !
[00:43] <HappyNewYear13> lmao, did my lates question made sense?
[00:43] <bhalash> You'd need to change the partitions and set a boot flag. I've actually done that once in the past with some crappy Rio player.
[00:43] <HappyNewYear13> latest*
[00:44] <bhalash> If you're happy using gparted or fdisk you shouldn't have a problems
[00:44] <EriC^^> HappyNewYear13: how big is the mp3 player
[00:44] <HappyNewYear13> EriC^^, i think 4GB
[00:44] <EriC^^> HappyNewYear13: give it a shot
[00:45] <richiedsk> heeey!
[00:45] <bhalash> HappyNewYear13: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[00:45] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, do you have a SD card and reader? that could work too
[00:45] <HappyNewYear13> i'm glad i just bought a new laptop with DVD burner. never had one :'(
[00:45] <HappyNewYear13> but that's where i'm going to install ubuntu
[00:45] <HappyNewYear13> no OS now
[00:45] <bhalash> I haven't used a CD in years. :/
[00:46] <HappyNewYear13> thank you friends bhalash OerHeks EriC^^
[00:46] <bhalash> np
[00:46] <OerHeks> have fun
[00:49] <liu> hi ! I have iproute2 installed, but i can't find netlink library in ubuntu 14.04
[00:49] <liu> can someone help me?
[00:51] <uskerine> in ubuntu-minimal, what should be installed when you are getting messages like "no dialog-like program is installed" while installing packages?
[00:51] <uskerine> ubuntu minimal 12.04
[00:52] <OerHeks> liu, this package ? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man7/netlink.7.html
[00:52] <OerHeks> oh sorry, that is just the manual
[00:53] <OerHeks> !find netlink
[00:53] <OerHeks> libnfnetlink0 is what you want, i guess.
[00:54] <liu> OerHeks: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man3/libnetlink.3.html
[00:55] <EriC^^> uskerine: ncurses?
[00:55] <EriC^^> !find ncurses
[00:55] <liu> it says that libnetlink is on iproute package
[00:55] <EriC^^> uskerine: no idea
[00:56] <Pici> uskerine: perhaps the package 'dialog'
[00:56] <uskerine> I am trying with that
[00:56] <uskerine> thanks
[00:59] <explodes> Is there a great application for linux/ubuntu that downloads your liked soundcloud sounds?
[01:02] <OerHeks> explodes. there is a unity-soundcloud-scope, that can browse, comment and download
[01:03] <OerHeks> explodes, or https://github.com/lukapusic/soundcloud-dl
[01:08] <bwright_> Having an issue with my Cannon LiDE 25 USB scanner, sane seems to find it but simple scan says no device is connected even when running it in root.
[01:08] <bwright_> Has worked on previous versions of ubuntu with no modification.
[01:08] <bwright_> So unsure as to the reason?
[01:12] <byerley> hi, I'm trying to install an ubuntu 14.04 server partition from USB, but I get a black screen after selecting install. I think I need to set "nomodeset" in grub, but I'm sitting on the grub edit screen and I can't figure out the syntax. The requisite images from this guide are dead: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132, can anyone point me to a better one?
[01:14] <Bashing-om> !nomodeset | byerley
[01:14] <Bashing-om> byerley: UHH, same same, what is the particular problem ?
[01:15] <Apachez> OerHeks: yeah... like scale 4/5 means 1536x864 is sent on the wire instead of 1920x1080 which is the full desktop size of the client to be remoted
[01:17] <byerley> Bashing-om I'm editing the line it describes "linux /install/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu-server.seed quiet --", should it be changed to end with "quiet --nomodeset"?
[01:19] <Ben64> byerley: no --, just nomodeset
[01:22] <Bashing-om> byerley: ^^ , then key combo ctl+x to continue the boot process. Headless server ?
[01:22] <bwright_> Why wouldn't the scanner work on this version of Ubuntu but would work on older versions :/
[01:30] <byerley> Bashing-om: I get the same black screen in both cases, not sure if I have the syntax wrong or I'm just not fixing the problem. It's a normal Desktop setup, but I don't actually need the interface for anything I want to do with it.
[01:36] <Bashing-om> byerley: A black screen is the most often corrected with "nomodest", but, graphics may not be the issue. Might try " acpi=off " , see if that has any effect.
[01:44] <Bashing-om> byerley: Also, did you check the .iso integrity (md5sum) ?
[01:53] <EriC^^> what's up Bashing-om?
[01:54] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: Hey, hey ! .. not much .. slow evening where ever I look .
[01:54] <EriC^^> yeah it's pretty quiet tonight
[01:55] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: Gives us time to thing about teak'n for breakage . ( OR why I want to install 14.10, hummm).
[01:56] <EriC^^> hehe yeah :D
[01:56] <byerley> Bashing-om: yeah, tried USB in another machine and it works fine as well. I think I'll give up for now and try again with a desktop image later, thanks for the help.
[01:59] <Bashing-om> byerley: OK, we keep at it till we whoop it, or it whoops us. See ya later and WE all take this matter back up.
[01:59] <mikey_> hiya any gurus here can help with a wireless problem ?
[01:59] <safinaskar> please say me what is default name of terminal in trusty
[01:59] <safinaskar> urgent!
[02:00] <safinaskar> !
[02:00] <EriC^^> safinaskar: gnome-terminal
[02:00] <safinaskar> EriC^^: thanks
[02:01] <mikey_> and yes, it's a Broadcom
[02:01] <OerHeks> !bcm
[02:01] <mikey_> I've read/tried all that, pulling my damn hair out
[02:02] <safinaskar> where is keyboard layout settings in trusty?
[02:02] <EriC^^> safinaskar: settings > text entry
[02:02] <safinaskar> and where is settings?
[02:02] <sacarlson> mikey_: is the device seen at all with iwconfig ?
[02:02] <mikey_> sec
[02:02] <EriC^^> safinaskar: top right corner, power button
[02:02] <safinaskar> ok, found
[02:03] <mikey_> no.  it sees the realtek usb i'm using and that's it.
[02:03] <EriC^^> mikey_: what about lspci
[02:03] <mikey_> though when i install the "additional drivers" it sees all my access points but will not connect.  after reboot it is gone
[02:05] <safinaskar> how to temporary switch to another keyboard layout while right alt pressed?
[02:05] <mikey_> Yes it is there under lspci
[02:05] <EriC^^> safinaskar: super+space
[02:06] <sacarlson> mikey_: best pastebin lspci then so we can locate the correct driver and firmware
[02:06] <stephelton> a machine i recently set up does not have a /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file, and itso only ethernet device is named "em1". I'm having problems trying to create aliases in /etc/network/interfaces and I'm wondering if this is related... is there a tool I can use to produce the standard 70-persistent-net.rules file?
[02:06] <safinaskar> EriC^^: no. i mean i want to use right alt as a temporary way to switch to another layout (i. e. russian). when i hold right alt, i want to type russian. when i don't hold - i type english
[02:06] <safinaskar> EriC^^: there is such setting in kde 4 and gnome 2
[02:07] <EriC^^> safinaskar: you can change the shortcut in text entry, but alt is used for the HUD, so you'd have to disable that first
[02:08] <mikey_> 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 03)
[02:08] <mikey_> it is a 14e4:4328 rev03
[02:08] <sacarlson> mikey_: also need to know what kernel you are running uname -a
[02:09] <mikey_> Linux mike-HP-Pavilion-dv9000-RU313UA-ABL 3.16.0-24-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 28 13:07:32 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[02:09] <Chuck_Norris> mikey_: sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[02:09] <mikey_> done that Chuck
[02:11] <codepoet_> Is there something that limits the amount of memory a process can use in ubuntu 14.0.4 64bit? I have a process that eats up 32g of memory and occasionally swaps on a server I am re-doing, but on my new server,. the same process doesn’t even use 1g of Ram and takes forever. My ulimits are soft/hard * and root set at 100000 …. is there something else?
[02:11] <safinaskar> is there any way to install proprietary flush plugin from repo and not from site adobe.com?
[02:11] <codepoet_> s/0.4/04/
[02:11] <safinaskar> *trusty
[02:11] <somsip> !info flashplugin-installer | safinaskar
[02:12] <mikey_> comes back "already the newest version"
[02:12] <Chuck_Norris> mikey_:  append b43 at the bottom of /etc/modules
[02:12] <safinaskar> somsip: thanks
[02:12] <safinaskar> EriC^^: thanks
[02:13] <safinaskar> somsip: hm, ok, i installed flushplugin, i. e. that package. but flash still doesn't work in ff
[02:13] <mikey_> ummm.. how do I do that ?
[02:14] <OerHeks> mikey_, did you rebooy after install?
[02:14] <OerHeks> *reboot
[02:14] <mikey_> yes have rebooted
[02:15] <safinaskar> so, i installed the package flashplugin-installer. what to do next?
[02:16] <OerHeks> safinaskar, restart your browser?
[02:16] <safinaskar> OerHeks: doesn't work
[02:16] <safinaskar> i'll be back
[02:17] <sacarlson> mikey_:  if you tried all else including sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source  then you might try boot a livecd with the 32bit version of linux.  it sounds like the 64bit driver for bcm is broken
[02:17] <safinaskar> so, restarting doesn't help
[02:17] <safinaskar> what to do?
[02:17] <safinaskar> trusty
[02:20] <steve_R> Does anyone have a good understanding of compiling apps?
[02:20] <mikey_> hmm interesting.
[02:20] <xangua> !compile
[02:21] <OerHeks> safinaskar, i am out of ideas, i use chrome to avoid flash issues
[02:21] <bubbasaures> safinaskar, Flash in the repos is older but what is available, does not work in all uses, thee is chrome with peppermint built in; their flash
[02:21] <bubbasaures> there*
[02:22] <isleshocky77> It seems that my system keeps automatically adding some really funky network connections. I've deleted them from /etc/NetworkManager/system-conntections and they reappeared. It looks like all of these weird connections are bluetooth device. Anyone know how I get it to stop adding them?
[02:24] <Krixvar> Anyone able to give me a hand with setting up my usb sound card? I can usually only get it to play sound out of one of the two rca pairs
[02:25] <HappyNewYear13> why utopic is not available in the minimalCD installation documentation? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[02:25] <mikey_> How do you change the graphics driver to the alternate driver to boot the live cd ?  My dv9000 just freezes up without switching to the alternate driver.
[02:26] <bubbasaures> !nomodeset | mikey_ try this boot
[02:26] <HappyNewYear13> help. i'm new to minimal installation
[02:26] <bubbasaures> HappyNewYear13, Details not help here please.
[02:27] <HappyNewYear13> bubbasaures, what do you mean
[02:27] <HappyNewYear13> minimalCD lates is 14.04 will it offer me to install utopic?
[02:27] <bubbasaures> HappyNewYear13, You don;t just say help here, we know that already, detail the issue.
[02:28] <HappyNewYear13> bubbasaures, said it above 3 minutes ago
[02:28] <Bashing-om> HappyNewYear13: A minimal install is just the core - what it takes to boot the kernel . All else you must install .
[02:28] <HappyNewYear13> Bashing-om, why utopic is not available as minimal install?
[02:28] <safinaskar> ok, flash in chromium works. thanks to all
[02:29] <HappyNewYear13> Bashing-om, i read somewhere utopic server is available as minimal install, but i need utopic desktop
[02:29] <HappyNewYear13> safinaskar, you can make flash work in firefox too with "fresh player"
[02:29] <HappyNewYear13> safinaskar, it's a big buggy though
[02:30] <HappyNewYear13> you still would need pepperflash
[02:30] <bubbasaures> HappyNewYear13, Sigh right, and we ask you do not use that word. It just clouds what your task is getting help. https://workaround.org/getting-help-on-irc
[02:30] <HappyNewYear13> safinaskar, "fresh player plugin"
[02:31] <HappyNewYear13> bubbasaures, no one is answering me. when i say help, at least someone does
[02:31] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> Can i ask questions about batch?
[02:32] <HappyNewYear13> i guess no one does minimalCD install nowadays
[02:32] <HappyNewYear13> i am not good buying hardware
[02:32] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, sure, lot of people do
[02:32] <HappyNewYear13> i dont even have a DVD to burn utopic on it, neither a DVD burner
[02:33] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, just install 14.04 and upgrade
[02:33] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> wanna script that i can just type ./filename /var/www/filename
[02:33] <GuyThatNeedsHelp> so i dont got to type out /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text /var/www/filename
[02:33] <HappyNewYear13> OerHeks, i will do that. but why utopic desktop is not available? is it just a matter of time?
[02:34] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, not sure why it is not available yet.
[02:34] <HappyNewYear13> OerHeks, i thought it was strange
[02:35] <HappyNewYear13> man i love ubuntu hehe
[02:35] <HappyNewYear13> been using it for the last 6-7 years
[02:36] <HappyNewYear13> always installed it from a CD or upgraded over the internet
[02:36] <Krixvar> No one on the soundcard? I've tried asoundrc and it doesn't seem to help.. only thing that gets both to work is unplugging/plugging it back in multiple times with the speakers on for some reason (which makes them pop which I don't like...), and even then after multiple plugging cycles they still don't work most of the time
[02:36] <HappyNewYear13> how oftern you guys change your pc or notebooks?
[02:37] <HappyNewYear13> how often you guys buy a new pc or notebook? average?
[02:38] <HappyNewYear13> my audio problems solved in the past deleting the "pulse" audio folder. then reboot and it was created fresh
[02:39] <somsip> Guest81373: create a link from /usr/local/bin with sudo ln -s  /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text  /usr/local/bin/sublime
[02:39] <HappyNewYear13> is everyone sleeping?
[02:39] <somsip> !quiet | HappyNewYear13
[02:39] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, those are hardly ubuntu support issues, you might want to join #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[02:39] <HappyNewYear13> haha
[02:39] <Guest81373> ?
[02:39] <somsip> Guest81373: meant for someone else
[02:40] <somsip> who is now gone...
[02:40] <HappyNewYear13> i wanted to know the average ubuntu user, how often they buy new pcs or laptops
[02:40] <somsip> !ot | HappyNewYear13
[02:40] <Krixvar> HappyNewYear13: I'll have to try that, though this has persisted over multiple installs (though I may have kept the pulse folder), and its in an alsa app with pulseaudio suspended :/
[02:40] <HappyNewYear13> it was a support question, for me to do the same.
[02:41] <Krixvar> HappyNewYear13: what kind of issues were you having that it fixed?
[02:41] <HappyNewYear13> Krixvar, i don't remember. it was long time ago. i guess i didn't have sound, or i lost it.
[02:42] <Krixvar> HappyNewYear13: hmm okay, I'm just confused by this because there's two rca pairs, one works but the other doesn't without getting lucky with shuffling cables
[02:43] <HappyNewYear13> my .pulse folder at $HOME
[02:43] <HappyNewYear13> rename it instead of deleting it
[02:43] <peyam> hi
[02:44] <peyam> I used xrandr in redshift. it works but is it the right way to do it?
[02:44] <peyam> randr wasnt available in my packages and neither vidmode
[02:44] <HappyNewYear13> anyone with experience installing ubuntu via minimalCD. is it smooth?
[02:44] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: it works. What's your specific question?
[02:45] <HappyNewYear13> somsiop i wanted the utopic minimal iso, but latest available is 14.04
[02:45] <Krixvar> HappyNewYear13: I'll try that
[02:45] <HappyNewYear13> i feel so sleepy
[02:46] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: doesn't seem to be available. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[02:46] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, yeah. isn't that strange?
[02:47] <HappyNewYear13> i was thinking maybe the 14.04 iso will jump up to 14.10. but then again, i watch too much Sci-fi
[02:48] <HappyNewYear13> there's a video of Linus Torvalds saying why he doesn't use debian or ubuntu. could someone summarize it for me? YT recommend it to me
[02:48] <EriC^^> somebody should file a bug about update-manager , you can update the installation without sudo, it effectively gives anyone a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade privileges
[02:48] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini,iso
[02:48] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso
[02:48] <OerHeks> HappyNewYear13, found it, it is there, only not in the list yet, i changed trusty to utopic
[02:48] <somsip> (typo)
[02:49] <OerHeks> ah somsip is quick
[02:49] <somsip> OerHeks: I think we got there at the same time. Yes, noticed the minimalCD page has not been updated since 4/14 so maybe it's just that that needs doing
[02:50] <HappyNewYear13> somsip it says amd64 is that 64 bits? i always choose i386. i have no clue about 64 bits
[02:50] <OerHeks> somsip, not sure who to talk to.. or where to write/ask
[02:50] <OerHeks> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso
[02:50] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: get whatever you need for your CPU. Or use OerHeks's link
[02:51] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, thank you, i didn't see OerHeks' (thank you too)
[02:51] <HappyNewYear13> do you guys use 64 bits?
[02:52] <HappyNewYear13> i am such a noob. i always chose 32 bits
[02:52] <byerley> Bashing-om: figured it out if you're interested, acpi=off and no quiet got me useful some debug output and evidently it was hanging on an ATA bus error (some specific SATA ports on the motherboard weren't Linux friendly so moving them fixed things - the solid HDD light during the black screen probably should have tipped me off)
[02:52] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: what other people do is not as relevant as you using what is best for your CPU/RAM
[02:53] <Krixvar> HappyNewYear13: back, restarting didn't regenerate .pulse for me
[02:53] <HappyNewYear13> Krixvar, did you rename it as i said?
[02:53] <Krixvar> HappyNewYear13: yeah, changed it to .pulse-old then rebooted
[02:53] <Krixvar> still have that folder, but no new .pulse
[02:54] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, new laptop will be 4GB ram CPU  Intel® Celeron® N2830, 2.16 GHz (1M Cache, Turbo Máx. 2.41 GHz)
[02:54] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, can i use 64 bits?
[02:54] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: I'm not looking up whether yoyur CPU is 32 or 64 bits. You can do that yourself
[02:54] <Krixvar> all my other audio devices still work fine, and channels 3 and 4 of the card work, but for whatever reason I can't get the card to play out of the first two channels
[02:54] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, all this is so new to me
[02:56] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, documentation says something about UEFI hardware.... oh my god. noob again
[02:57] <HappyNewYear13> i'll go for 32 bits. 64 scares me
[02:57] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: you're coming across as self-deprecating in a way that is not funny or helping yourself. I'm struggling to care about helping you if you can't do something for yourself
[02:57] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, i appreciate all your help friend
[02:58] <somsip> HappyNewYear13: so search for your CPU and find out if it's 32 or 64 bits, without the "I'm so useless" commentary
[02:58] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, i learned so much in this few minutes here
[02:58] <OerHeks>  UEFI will only take 64 bit.
[02:58] <Bashing-om> byerley: Great! Glad ya got it fingered out. When you are good, you are good .
[02:58] <HappyNewYear13> somsip, will do that
[02:58] <OerHeks> !uefi
[02:58] <HappyNewYear13> uefi sounds like something from planet Mars
[02:58] <OerHeks> if your machine is 32 bit + uefi, no go
[02:59] <HappyNewYear13> i know all about BIOS
[03:01] <HappyNewYear13> this new laptop i bought comes with an installation CD, and it says 64bit
[03:01] <HappyNewYear13> so i guess it's 64bits
[03:02] <HappyNewYear13> i dont know....
[03:02] <HappyNewYear13> yeah
[03:03] <HappyNewYear13> yeah it must be 64 bits then
[03:03] <HappyNewYear13> so i've been downloading the wrong stuff
[03:03] <HappyNewYear13> hahahaaaaaaa -_-
[03:04] <HappyNewYear13> i mean, 32 bit is supposed to work too. but not at its optimal performance, right?
[03:04] <HappyNewYear13> i mean my laptop could be more powerful
[03:05] <HappyNewYear13> my life is so funny
[03:05] <HappyNewYear13> i'm glad all this happened
[03:06] <OerHeks> 32 bit works on legacy bios versions, but UEFI is a new way to protect your OS, they say. hard to find new machines without UEFI
[03:07] <HappyNewYear13> OerHeks, i just bought it today, the notebook. and as i say it's been like over 6-7 years i bought the last one
[03:07] <HappyNewYear13> still works like a charm

[03:08] <UnderSampled> How do I get libc for gcc-arm-none-eabi?
[03:09] <Tex_Nick> caps
[03:09] <OerHeks> UnderSampled, you might want to ask this in #ubuntu-arm too
[03:09] <Tex_Nick> sorry post to wrong channel
[03:10] <UnderSampled> OerHeks: ok
[03:10] <sfdebug> hi, i have problem in using USB to boot ubuntu from pen-drive, when i try to boot from the usb pen-drive i receive this message: "SYSLINUX 4.03 2010-10-22 EDD Copyright (C) 1994-2010 H. Peter Anvin et al", this pen-drive works because i already installed ubunutu that is on it in two desktop machines, but, in my notebook (intel core i3, 4gb ram) does not works. the message i said appears, a prompt appears, and nothing more is done, n
[03:11] <sfdebug> does anyone has any idea?
[03:12] <bubbasaures> sfdebug, Do you get the try or install gui?
[03:13] <OerHeks> sfdebug, did you check the md5sum?
[03:15] <peri0baron1> new to linux here. Wanted to install Java and can't get beyond file extraction
[03:15] <sfdebug> bubbasaures: black background with white text appears on the screen, i think i'm not using UI.. but, can be some file trying to use UI and having problem... i already read about it on some post, but, it was talking about ubuntu version 14.10, and i didn't found the same line with the "UI" problem on 14.04.1
[03:15] <sfdebug> OerHeks: yes.

[03:16] <OerHeks> Luke_Rubcic, please don't spam here, thanks
[03:18] <peri0baron1> Oerheks, i've been to multiple "help" sites and just can't seem to make it work
[03:20] <byerley> sfdebug: what kind of prompt is it?
[03:20] <OerHeks> peri0baron1, did you try the url from ubottu ?
[03:21] <OerHeks> i use openJDK just fine, no need for the binairy blob from oracle
[03:21] <sfdebug> byerley: just a prompt, any text is present, just a prompt blincking...
[03:21] <OerHeks> !nomodeset
[03:22] <peri0baron1> I actually needed a specific version of JDK
[03:23] <peri0baron1> found it on oracle's website
[03:23] <HappyNewYear13> just finished burning my new 14.10 minimal CD 64 bits ^_^
[03:23] <sfdebug> OerHeks: i read about that in some post... but i couldn't realize how to do that...
[03:24] <neurosis-> peri0baron1 why a specific version of JDK
[03:25] <sfdebug> OerHeks: do you have any idea where can i put the nomodeset parameter?
[03:27] <peri0baron1> neurosis, the software i'm using only works with that particular version
[03:27] <OerHeks> sfdebug, it is an option with F6 when you get to the installer/try live screen, not sure you can add it to bootoptions. holf shift @ boot to enter grub2 menu, and add nomodeset as parameter to the bootline
[03:27] <OerHeks> holf-hold
[03:28] <peri0baron1> and for some strange reason, that ubuntu help link doesn't allow me to download the version i need
[03:28] <sfdebug> OerHeks: i cann't type anithing on the boot...
[03:30] <OerHeks> not typing, hold shift
[03:34] <steve_R> How does one contact the MOTU?

[03:40] <DMRadford> I'm trying to access a windows share from within a program on Ubuntu. The program can't see smb shares so I'm trying to figure out in what folder does the share get mounted, or how can I dictate where it mounts the share?

[03:49] <Guyofdoom42> Hello
[03:49] <byerley> having some issues with GRUB: it doesn't detect my windows partition and I'd rather not overwrite the MBR. Having to select the partition from UEFI would be fine, but trying to install it to the Linux partition (/dev/sdc5) fails. Not having much luck searching, any advice?
[03:50] <Guyofdoom42> Pray to the Great Old Ones.
[03:51] <Guyofdoom42> Is anyone else going to say anything?
[03:52] <byerley> Guyofdoom42: hi
[03:52] <Guyofdoom42> HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
[03:52] <Guyofdoom42> Finally, someone says something.
[03:52] <Guyofdoom42> THis is like trying to find Quake 1 servers.
[03:53] <Bashing-om> byerley: " sudo update-grub " does not pick up and chainload Windows ?
[03:55] <byerley> Bashing-om: I'm still in the installer, I'll try skipping it and using a live disk
[03:56] <Bashing-om> byerley: Be advised UEFI and MBR do not mix ! one or the other. whin it comes to how the system boots up.
[03:59] <EriC^^> byerley: grub should be installed to the disk not the partition
[03:59] <EriC^^> byerley: grub-install --recheck /dev/sdc
[04:04] <byerley> Bashing-om: so when GRUB says it wants to write to my MBR that'd brick my UEFI? I haven't really setup a dual-boot since before UEFI was standard.
[04:08] <flair> so i have kind of an interesting issue from a development stand point and im wondering if im going about it the wrong way, so my question is, is there an easy way in configuring ubuntu to give access to X display to a guest/virtualenv user?
[04:09] <SDr> hi guys, having set up a VPN connection using openswan, there's a an IP nat'd on my side. How can I add this IP to the routing tables as a starting point for packets going to 192.x.x.x?
[04:10] <Phillies> are added ip rules and ip routes   need to be saved somehow before a reboot to stay in effect or good after added
[04:10] <msgol> Hi!, someone please help, what was the name of the Terminal Browser?

[04:13] <msgol> no nothing should i install it, i remmber having another one imgonna install lynx right now tho
[04:14] <flair> sudo apt-get install lynx-cur
[04:14] <dean__> 4orm
[04:14] <msgol> THanks ;)
[04:14] <dean__> hello
[04:15] <dean__> hello
[04:15] <dean__> can anyone read this
[04:15] <NegativeFlare> dean__: of course
[04:15] <NegativeFlare> What can we help you with?
[04:16] <dean__> ohh ty well im having a lil problem installing something
[04:16] <dean__> and im new to linux/ubuntu
[04:17] <JR___> hi
[04:17] <JR___> arch linux or elementary os?
[04:17] <NegativeFlare> dean__: Alright, what do you need?
[04:17] <msgol> Thanks im back in Gnome again, the Browser i was talking about is Elinks.
[04:17] <NegativeFlare> JR___: I'm pretty sure thats offtopic
[04:17] <dean__> well im trying to install dsd+
[04:18] <lotuspsychje> !info links2 | msgol
[04:18] <dean__> ill type what it says to for installation
[04:18] <JR___> should i be in #linux?
[04:18] <NegativeFlare> dean__: I'm not sure if DSD+ is for linux
[04:18] <NegativeFlare> JR___: ##linux is your best bet yes.
[04:19] <dean__> tar xjf ittp-latest.tar.bz2
[04:19] <NegativeFlare> dean__: What about it?
[04:20] <dean__> when i type this line it says tar (child): ittp-latest.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory
[04:20] <NegativeFlare> dean__: looks like you haven't got the file to extract :P
[04:20] <dean__> the file is there
[04:21] <dean__> i see the zip
[04:21] <NegativeFlare> dean__: Are you in the correct folder in the terminal?
[04:21] <dean__> but i cant do anything through terminal to install it
[04:21] <dale> how do I rearrange the icon bar is 14.04LTS without removing and adding back again?
[04:21] <dean__> yea i also cd and then drag the file to terminal
[04:21] <NegativeFlare> dean__: You shouldn't have to drag the file
[04:22] <NegativeFlare> There's a thing called tab complete
[04:22] <dean__> so it auto write the dir
[04:22] <NegativeFlare> cd to the correct directory yourself
[04:22] <NegativeFlare> which assures you get to the correct folder
[04:22] <dean__> what is tab complete
[04:22] <NegativeFlare> THEN run the tar command
[04:22] <NegativeFlare> !tab
[04:22] <NegativeFlare> ^
[04:23] <dean__> ok im going to try that
[04:23] <NegativeFlare> dean__: alrighty
[04:24] <Bashing-om> byerley: I go side tracked, hoz it going ? UEFI ?
[04:24] <gomedun> Hi, could anyone help me out with getting my ethernet working?
[04:25] <dean__> what exactly does the xjf do
[04:25] <dean__> or stand for
[04:26] <NegativeFlare> dean__: it tells tar to extract a .tar.bz2 file
[04:26] <NegativeFlare> and the f tells tar what file to extract
[04:26] <NegativeFlare> X stands for extract
[04:27] <dean_> got disconnected
[04:27] <u0xff> ?
[04:27] <Bashing-om> gomedun: Wired or WIFI ? .. managed by Network Manager or is the network manual ?
[04:27] <dean_> what does xjf stand for or do  when i type tar xjf
[04:28] <dean_> im on wifi
[04:28] <NegativeFlare> dean_: X stands for extract, j stands for the .tar.bz2 file, and f tells the tar command what file to extract :P
[04:29] <dean_> i dont kno ho im going to remember all these commands
[04:29] <dean_> lol is there an easier way orf installing programs haha
[04:29] <dean_> of*
[04:29] <NegativeFlare> dean_: I use them everyday, but then again I'm an Network Administrator
[04:29] <Bashing-om> dean_: No one does, that is why we have the manual to remind us.
[04:29] <dean_> ahh i see im a mechanic
[04:29] <byerley> Bashing-om: little worried grub will break things so I'm trying to figure out how to add the partition in windows (which is kinda painful), worst case I'll just boot into it from a live disk
[04:29] <NegativeFlare> tar xvzf, tar xvjf
[04:29] <NegativeFlare> etc
[04:30] <cfhowlett> dean, some people have even been known to write down the things they wish to remember.
[04:30] <dean_> i need to find a list of these commands
[04:30] <NegativeFlare> Anyways, I've got to go
[04:30] <dean_> ILL PRINT IT OUT
[04:30] <Bashing-om> byerley: IF WUBI .. not a lot of support for it //and WUBI will not work in a UEFI install, period.
[04:31] <dean_> WELL THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HELPING
[04:31] <dean_> caps
[04:31] <dean_> opps
[04:31] <Bashing-om> !uefi | byerley Have you seen this:
[04:34] <user123> is there a list other than fstab over partitions which ubuntu tries to mount at boot?
[04:35] <user123> dmesg is giving me an error on my sda2 which is an empty extended partition not listed in fstab
[04:35] <byerley> Bashing-om: I did, but steps 5 and 6 are scary
[04:36] <justMess> hello world
[04:37] <Bashing-om> byerley: I will look at 5 and 6, see what is, but be aware I have no experioence either with UEFI .
[04:37] <lotuspsychje> user123: try gparted to merge empty partitions
[04:37] <justMess> hi guys
[04:37] <user123> lotuspsychje: cheers
[04:38] <lotuspsychje> !info gparted | user123
[04:38] <gomedun> any1 that can help me out with my ethernet?
[04:38] <lotuspsychje> !details | gomedun
[04:38] <dale> is there a html editor that does WW3C compliance, testing, accrediting for 14.04LTS
[04:39] <Bashing-om> byerley: steps 4 and 6, are you meaning boot-repair ?
[04:39] <lotuspsychje> dale: check software centre for html packages, there are plenty
[04:39] <dale> thanks lotuspsychje
[04:40] <user123> lotuspsychje: doesnt say anywhere in gparted about merging hm
[04:40] <lotuspsychje> user123: http://askubuntu.com/questions/269045/how-to-merge-an-unallocated-partition-with-an-extended-partition
[04:41] <byerley> Bashing-om: yeah, to be honest the ubuntu partition is more of a side project so I don't want to risk messing up the resident windows installation
[04:41] <gomedun> lotuspsychje: http://pastebin.com/gAJeShnj
[04:42] <user123> lotuspsychje: thank you person
[04:42] <unicornjedi> wassssssssup
[04:43] <Bashing-om> byerley: Understand that .. If you are the least uncertain, best to check and see what partitions have been made - If yo8u have exited the installer . Terminal command -> sudo parted -l <- for a glimpse.
[04:45] <justMe222>  test
[04:45] <dale> is there a way to have a "console" in terminal mode that spews all the activities? might slow me down, but I would like to try it
[04:45] <heloo222> hello world
[04:46] <nusr> the ubuntu does not like the mysql...after losing my password for mysql and struggling with some online tutorials to recover it, i had the bright idea to uninstall and reinstall..but now ubuntu does not install mysql. i get the message some packages cann't be installed blah
[04:47] <nusr> dale: try top?
[04:47] <heloo222> @dale what do you mean spews the activities
[04:48] <heloo222> @dale so you mean like dmesg
[04:49] <dale> spew all the acitivies my session is doing, line by line, or something, Solaris around 25 years ago had something like this, might have been a configured terminal an adminsitrator did
[04:49] <heloo222> @dale try dmesg in the command line
[04:49] <heloo222> it's the same dmesg as Solaris has
[04:50] <dale> I'll look into dmesg, looks like it needs some configuration, thanks honorable guru
[04:51] <heloo222> np
[04:52] <JR___> hi
[04:53] <JR___> i'm a noob here
[04:53] <JR___> anyone can tell me how can i install a software
[04:53] <sennn> why ubuntu pptp vpn not work in china?
[04:53] <JR___> and then see it on my desktop?
[04:53] <JR___> i apt-get a software
[04:53] <cfhowlett> JR___, install with the software center
[04:53] <JR___> and it disappears into my terminal
[04:53] <JR___> can everything be found in the software center?
[04:54] <cfhowlett> sennn, many/most vpn's are blocked in china.  consult your local party leader.
[04:54] <sennn> damn
[04:54] <cfhowlett> JR___, "everything" ?  of course not.
[04:54] <JR___> mmmm
[04:54] <JR___> it isn't really what i need then
[04:54] <JR___> ):
[04:54] <JR___> so how do i install softwares
[04:55] <cfhowlett> JR___, open the software center.  search for your app.  click install.
[04:55] <flair> so im working a script here that runs as a normal user but as a different user than my X display. ive added my xauth key from my x display to the normal user executing code (google-chrome as an example), however im receiving Gtk: cannot open display: :0  ... any ideas how i can fix this?
[04:55] <JR___> mmmm ok
[04:55] <JR___> i'll try again
[04:55] <nusr> you type sudo apt-get install <nameofsoftware>
[04:55] <JR___> apt-get install
[04:55] <JR___> and then
[04:55] <JR___> the software disappears
[04:55] <nusr> if it is in the repository you'll get it
[04:55] <JR___> there is no trace of it
[04:55] <JR___> how do i double click the software
[04:55] <nusr> you have to use sudo if you are not logged in as root
[04:55] <cfhowlett> JR___, dpkg -l | grep softwarename here         will show if it installed
[04:56] <JR___> and how do i start the software?
[04:56] <JR___> in windows you can double click the .exe
[04:56] <JR___> but you can't do that on the terminal
[04:56] <JR___> it just goes missing
[04:56] <JR___> and how do you search for all the installed apps?
[04:56] <JR___> is there a /programfiles/ for ubuntu?
[04:57] <cfhowlett> JR___, search the dash.
[04:57] <sennn> find handbook and read it!
[04:57] <cfhowlett> !manual | JR___ start hee
[04:57] <cfhowlett> here
[04:57] <nusr> you can type the name of the software at the top left corner if you are using unity...or you can pin it to the side bar..or have it on the desktop..just like clicking the .exe
[04:57] <JR___> ok thanks
[04:59] <flair> i really could use some direction on my issue if anyone has had any experience with it
[05:04] <Bashing-om> flair: Restate the issue, please, I may be able to assist before I retire this session.
[05:06] <SchrodingersScat> flair | so im working a script here that runs as a normal user but as a different user than my X display. ive added my xauth key  from my x display to the normal user executing code (google-chrome as an example), however im receiving Gtk: cannot open display: :0  ... any ideas how i can fix this?
[05:07] <SchrodingersScat> Bashing-om: ^
[05:08] <flair> sorry was trying to work on the issue
[05:08] <Bashing-om> SchrodingersScat: Thanks ..export DISPLAY=:0.0 ??
[05:09] <flair> bashing-om: im trying to give perm permission to another user on the system to allow display on my current users X display session
[05:09] <SchrodingersScat> yeah, I normally export DISPLAY until one of them works.
[05:09] <Bashing-om> flair: All I can come up with is some means to " export DISPLAY=:0.0 " .
[05:10] <flair> so do i do that as the user running the X session or as the user trying to hit the session?
[05:10] <flair> i would imagine as the user of the X session
[05:11] <Bashing-om> flair: Yes as a general rule the originator of the X session.
[05:12] <flair> and as the user of the non x session is there another command i would use to try to tell the display to use 0.0?
[05:14] <flair> xsession user env:  DISPLAY=:0.0     non xsession user evn:  DISPLAY=:0   (this is what the env is currently displaying)
[05:14] <Bashing-om> flair: No, the 'export' takes care of that .. if it is exported to the proper display.
[05:15] <flair> bashing-om im not sure that you fully understand mybe, im not trying to export my display to another screen
[05:16] <flair> im trying to give access to a terminal script   v user to my xsession y user display
[05:16] <flair> so if i load a terminal -> su - v (user)   and type google-chrome .. i want it display on my curren x users session y user
[05:17] <flair> reason im needing to do this, is im working with creating a plugin for lisa-project (voice recognition ) to launch a web browser or other X display apps
[05:20] <Bashing-om> flair: Sorry, beyond my skill set.
[05:21] <flair> bashing-om: yeah np i appreciate it, i was looking into xauth add but i think the key gets regenerated each time you log out and log back in for security reasons
[05:26] <mietek> Hi.
[05:26] <mietek> What's wrong with http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/ ?
[05:27] <cfhowlett> mietek, as the error message clearly states ...
[05:27] <mietek> Very.
[05:28] <mietek> I'm actually just trying to get to http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/pigz
[05:28] <mietek> Which is also nicely errored.
[05:28] <cfhowlett> mietek, it's broken.  Pretty sure someone is working to fix it.
[05:29] <mietek> Do you know an alternative way to just locate the *.deb?
[05:29] <cfhowlett> mitko, apt-cache show debname.deb
[05:29] <mietek> Thanks.
[05:29] <cfhowlett> mietek, happy2help
[05:32] <sacarlson> flair: why do you have to come in as another user?  can't you just login as the same user that is now using the display?
[05:33] <flair> sacarlson, no the python app runs in a virtualenv  as "alivelisa", the server runs on alivelisa and the client runs on "xsession user"
[05:33] <sacarlson> flair: seems some time back I played with ssh that depending on DISPLAY=:0.1  or :0.2  or maybe 0.0 that pointed it to the screen I wanted
[05:34] <flair> sacarlson, im just writing a bash script to run the command sudo -h -u user google-chrome and im adding alivelisa to suders nopasswd
[05:34] <flair> screw trying to mess with the display atm :)
[05:35] <sacarlson> flair: ok so If I was to simulate with virtualbox I guess I would setup another user name and ssh into my host box and see if I can bring up an X app on the host
[05:36] <flair> sacarlson, just virtualbox xdisplay add a user and su - user and try to launch an x app as a that user that doesnt have access to ur current x display in ur x virtual session
[05:36] <sacarlson> flair: oh ok ya that should work I guess
[05:36] <flair> yeah doesnt work
[05:37] <flair> ok so that worked :)
[05:37] <flair> using sudoers :)
[05:37] <sacarlson> flair: cool done deal
[05:37] <flair> bypassed alot of security doing that
[05:38] <flair> but eh atm its a good work around while i work on this app :)
[05:42] <flair> woohooO! plugin worked :D  i can open google with my voice now LOL :D
[05:48] <Blaster> Freshly installed Ubuntu 14.10 on a Thinkpad W520 and there is graphics display issues.  Do we need a driver?
[05:49] <flair> blaster: would help to understand the display issues...

[05:59] <flair> blaster, this might be of some use to you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2209720
[05:59] <flair> response to the guys question that is
[06:02] <manikanta> hi
[06:02] <manikanta> make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libgdal1.7.0.so', needed by `apps/lsiviewer.wt'.
[06:02] <Blaster> flair: Is there an easy way to find switchable graphics driver for Ubuntu 14.10 and a 1000M card?
[06:02] <explodingmango> Hey, is there anyone willing to try to replicate a problem I'm having with shotwell? It's a pretty simple one involving tags
[06:02] <manikanta> While compiling something I got that error..What exactly that means?
[06:02] <manikanta> make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libgdal1.7.0.so', needed by `apps/lsiviewer.wt'.
[06:03] <flair> blaster: never had one man not sure , just trying to point you in a direction if it was me i would start
[06:03] <explodingmango> 1.) start shotwell 2.) import at least one photo and add a tag 3.) right-click the tag in the left pane and add a sub-tag 4.) keep adding subtags until keyboard input stops working (takes 2 or 3 for me)

[06:08] <acmeraptor> hello hello
[06:09] <acmeraptor> anyone have some time to help me compile some mfg supplied code for a dumb wireless adapter?
[06:09] <flair> acmeraptor, ur in casper ?
[06:10] <acmeraptor> i am
[06:10] <flair> so am i bud
[06:10] <acmeraptor> nice!
[06:10] <acmeraptor> just moved here from phoenix a month ago.. and i LOVE it here
[06:17] <floatingpoint> hola. what is the default location for non-apt-get-installed programs?
[06:18] <floatingpoint> ./opt?
[06:19] <kahtahs_> there's none
[06:20] <sacarlson> floatingpoint: I guess /usr/local/bin
[06:20] <floatingpoint> ok
[06:21] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: they wind up everywhere, if you need to find a program you installed with some other system try "find" or "locate"
[06:21] <floatingpoint> i ask because i am attempting to install crfsuite
[06:21] <floatingpoint> i guess i need to make an alias for this program as well
[06:21] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: how was it installed?
[06:21] <floatingpoint> i downloaded a binary
[06:21] <dyu> curl -X POST localhost:3000/deal/something --header "Content-Type:application/json" --data '[{"deal_id": 1, "qty": 3}]' <-- I'm using that to test a Rails app. Rails names the parameter in --data as "_json", how do I change it? Our Rails app expects something else
[06:22] <floatingpoint> so, it's in /opt/crfsuite now
[06:23] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: opt is a sane place for it to be, just make sure it is in your path if you are going to run it directly.
[06:23] <floatingpoint> ok
[06:23] <floatingpoint> is there a way to add it to all users' paths?
[06:24] <floatingpoint> edit ./etc/bashrc?
[06:24] <sacarlson> floatingpoint: I think you can add it to your local home at .bashrc also
[06:25] <floatingpoint> yeah, i want to add it for all users though
[06:25] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: then it will be runnable for all bash users, so, it is a solution, is it good enough?
[06:25] <floatingpoint> yeah
[06:25] <floatingpoint> what about /etc/environment?
[06:25] <kahtahs_> won't updates touch /etc
[06:26] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: then I guess it will be in $PATH regardless of shell.
[06:26] <floatingpoint> ok
[06:26] <floatingpoint> i will do that instead
[06:27] <sacarlson> anyone ever add voice synth to pidgin or other irc clients?
[06:28] <floatingpoint> um
[06:28] <floatingpoint> do i need to do anything to make the /etc/environment edtis active?
[06:29] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: relog, give me a second and I will dig up a useful command to test it quickly
[06:29] <sacarlson> never mind I think I found something http://www.unixmen.com/how-to-get-pidgin-to-speak-instant-messages-in-ubuntu-and-linuxmint/
[06:30] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: I think "bash -l" should reload your variables
[06:32] <newname> trying to install ubuntu 14.10 in virtualbox with all default settings and this happens.  any ideas?  http://i.imgur.com/iLiOkis.png
[06:33] <liuxg> does anyone know how to covert a QString to std:string in UTF-8 format?
[06:33] <cybrhuman> newname: I guess X is not working.
[06:33] <floatingpoint> hm
[06:33] <floatingpoint> what does this mean
[06:33] <floatingpoint> root@devbox01:~# $PATH
[06:33] <floatingpoint> bash: /opt/anaconda/bin:/opt/anaconda/bin:/opt/anaconda/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games: No such file or directory
[06:33] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: do "echo $PATH"
[06:34] <floatingpoint> wow
[06:34] <newname> cybrhuman: that is before telling it to run live or install
[06:34] <floatingpoint> my path is all screwed up now
[06:34] <floatingpoint> it isn't what i set in /etc/environment
[06:34] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: oh? what did you set it to in env?
[06:35] <floatingpoint> PATH="/opt/anaconda/bin:/opt/crfsuite-0.12/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
[06:35] <newname> I had the same thing happen with new version of lubuntu.  xubuntu works though.
[06:36] <newname> 12.10.4 works fine too
[06:36] <floatingpoint> ok
[06:36] <floatingpoint> looks like i needed to relogin
[06:36] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: bash -l did not do the trick?
[06:36] <floatingpoint> nope
[06:37] <floatingpoint> cool
[06:37] <cybrhuman> floatingpoint: okay, I'll remember that and not suggest it again :P
[06:37] <floatingpoint> i have crfsuite now
[06:37] <floatingpoint> good ol conditional random fields
[06:39] <newname> I guess I can install 12.10 and upgrade it, seems like this would be a more widespread issue though
[06:43] <cybrhuman> what was the command for finding ubuntu-version I was on?
[06:43] <basil1x> uname -a
[06:44] <cybrhuman> basil1x: that gives me linux version, not ubuntu version.
[06:44] <basil1x> AH
[06:44] <basil1x> there should be a popup from the 'about' thing in the upper-right.
[06:45] <cybrhuman> basil1x: in unity?
[06:45] <basil1x> Aye
[06:46] <basil1x> Unless they changed that from Raring.
[06:47] <cybrhuman> not using unity, but I am pretty sure I have seen a file I can read that tells me name and number, /etc/apt/sources.list only gives name.
[06:47] <basil1x> I'm pretty sure you can tell from the kernel version which buntu it is.
[06:49] <cybrhuman> basil1x: not without googling, I mean it is a file that keeps that info,
[06:49] <cybrhuman> oh, I found it /etc/issue /etc/issue.net /etc/lsb-release /etc/os-release
[06:49] <basil1x> Well, is googling so wrong?
[06:50] <basil1x> though I'd DDG or Ixquick instead. ;)
[06:50] <cybrhuman> basil1x: yes, since I haven't always got internet connection when I need the answer
[06:50] <kahtahs_> cybrhuman: lsb_release -a
[06:51] <basil1x> Ah.  you could put it in a text file in your /Downloads
[06:51] <basil1x> Or you could put the commands you forget there.
[06:53] <cybrhuman> I find it more useful to remember the commands so I can use them on other machines
[06:53] <cybrhuman> kahtahs_: thanks :)
[06:53] <basil1x> Tattoo them on your inner thigh?
[06:54] <cybrhuman> :P or just remember them
[06:55] <basil1x> And how has that worked out? :D
[06:56] <cybrhuman> pretty well actually, not that important commands, but still a bit useful.
[06:57] <basil1x> True.  Fedora doesn't even do that. ;)
[06:58] <basil1x> uname -a is all you get.  Which I why I forgot myself.  Until I can afford a new HDD, I haven't a working buntu.
[06:59] <mikubuntu> i'm so sick of computers eating my text when i'm composing letters, documents, etc. i'm kind of slow, so it took me this long to figure out that what apparently happens is that as i may be happily tapping away on my keyboard somehow i inadvertently activate the highlighting feature, and with the next keystroke, all my text disappears, which is apparently exactly what it is designed to do. can i use a personal keylogger to retriev
[06:59] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: ctrl-z ?
[07:00] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: what will that do?
[07:01] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: undo last change, you can do it repeatedly to undo several changes
[07:02] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: wow. how come thats not printed at the top of every monitor on the planet? lol.
[07:02] <slyhackr> Is anyone else having issues with firefox glitching webpages? Like, I get flashing in random rectangles and it'll flash back and forth between two tabs.
[07:02] <slyhackr> I can't for the life of me figure out what is going on.
[07:03] <ObrienDave> slyhackr, purge and reinstall
[07:03] <kahtahs_> slyhackr: hw acc?
[07:03] <Travesty> anyone know how I can grep someone's skype ip address when a resolver isn't working?
[07:03] <slyhackr> hw acc?
[07:03] <ObrienDave> hardware acceleration
[07:03] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: well, it is :P under the edit menu in most programs. but it is one of the failures of communication from the IT industry that it is not common knowledge.
[07:04] <slyhackr> Yeah, I have hardware acceleration enabled. I'll try disabling to see if that helps.
[07:05] <cybrhuman> Travesty: why? I start to doubt your motives when you ask such questions.
[07:05] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: if i go back now to the last active window where this happened (in my yahoo mail account) will this work? is a keylogging app still a good alternative for retrieving text?
[07:05] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: try it, I think it works in all mainstream browsers.
[07:05] <Travesty> well, I'm asking cybrhuman because a bot has discovered my address, and I am attempting to give skype the ip address so they can shut the bot down.
[07:06] <BusinessMan> I want to start a channel for business minded ppl
[07:06] <Travesty> gave my skype address to one person; and surely they haven't spammed it; it's my wife I gave it to...
[07:07] <newname> 64 bit works
[07:07] <cybrhuman> Travesty: so you are being spammed or something?
[07:07] <Travesty> so, my attempt is to get the ip address of this individual/bot, and email skype so I can shut them down cybrhuman.
[07:07] <Travesty> yes.
[07:07] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: are you familiar with use of keyloggers, also? i can imagine if i was a coder or some such programmer how frustrating it must be for the computer to 'eat' your last hours work.
[07:07] <wxz> what's an enhanced zoom alternative that doesn't require compiz?
[07:08] <slyhackr> BusinessMan: Ok, then start one.
[07:08] <kahtahs_> Travesty: Skype doesn't do that
[07:08] <Travesty> I know skype doesn't but they will ban an ip for misuse of service.
[07:08] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: I'd advice against a keylogger solution.
[07:09] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: which ubuntu version are you on?
[07:09] <wxz> how can I zoom with metacity?
[07:10] <kahtahs_> Travesty: where did you get the idea that skype will do that when you mail them an ip?
[07:10] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: why not use a logger? -- lubuntu 14.04
[07:10] <BusinessMan> done.. entrepenuer and thesharktank
[07:11] <cybrhuman> because more harm than good lies down that road, and ctrl-z works almost universally.
[07:11] <Travesty> well, kahtahs_, it's against their TOS to use a botnet much less a server to spam their users, esp given their Privacy policy
[07:11] <Travesty> thereof, kahtahs_, I'm going to email them with the ip of said botnet, and have them block that ip for good.
[07:11] <cybrhuman> Travesty: if you are being ddosed it is probably not via skype.
[07:12] <basil1x> BusinessMan, it might be helpful if oyu spelled entrepreneur correctly. ;)
[07:12] <Travesty> it's not a ddos, it's a bot cybrhuman
[07:12] <cybrhuman> so Skype will be powerless.
[07:12] <basil1x> you*
[07:12] <cybrhuman> Travesty: bot which does what?
[07:12] <Travesty> spams
[07:12] <kahtahs_> Travesty: they will just ignore you
[07:12] <cybrhuman> can't you rather set skype to not accept messages from people on contact list?
[07:13] <kahtahs_> Travesty: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10001/how-do-i-report-abuse-by-someone-in-skype?
[07:13] <eb0t> travesty ...how do you know its a bot
[07:13] <Travesty> towanda.brentlinger - "Want to see my cam?"   I've never used skype, so I've no clue, but that would be feature one, if I'd made it.
[07:13] <Travesty> I'm fairly effective if I have an ip
[07:13] <eb0t> its probably some website you viisted that is just selling your ip to many places
[07:13] <Travesty> haven't ignored them because I need that ip address.
[07:13] <cybrhuman> Travesty: in skypes settings there is a setting for not accepting random messages
[07:13] <Travesty> no, I use a bouncer @eb0t
[07:14] <eb0t> ah ok ill look it up
[07:14] <eb0t> a bouncer eh
[07:14] <Phillies> Warning: Setting GRUB_TIMEOUT to a non-zero value when GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is set is no longer supported
[07:14] <Phillies> does this matter?
[07:14] <Travesty> yes; a bouncer.
[07:14] <Guest-8793> goodski
[07:14] <cybrhuman> Travesty: a bouncer forwards messages to you?
[07:14] <Travesty> no.
[07:14] <Travesty> a bouncer keeping my ip anonymous.
[07:14] <kahtahs_> Phillies: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1258597
[07:14] <eb0t> BNC
[07:15] <Travesty> (:
[07:15] <cybrhuman> Travesty: what is a bouncer in this context?
[07:15] <Travesty> just wish I could get rid of this dumb bot, for good on skype; which is why I need the... nvfm.
[07:15] <eb0t> where did you get this bouncer from
[07:15] <eb0t> this bnc relay tool
[07:15] <eb0t> i think your bouncer is the culprit
[07:16] <Travesty> never get anywhere with these people in here; have never been helpful with anything.
[07:16] <Travesty> bs eb0t
[07:16] <eb0t> remove it and see if you still get spammed
[07:16] <cybrhuman> eb0t: do you know what a bouncer is in this context?
[07:16] <Travesty> use suricata, bit defender, and an ip bouncer (not a proxy, but bounces my ip from one server to the next every 5 seconds with a stable connection.)
[07:17] <eb0t> yes..just a piece of software used to relay traffice and conections
[07:17] <eb0t> like a proxy
[07:17] <Travesty> so I highly doubt that eb0t
[07:17] <enchilado> 49
[07:17] <eb0t> and that said ...some proxys are also dangerous
[07:17] <enchilado> Gosh darnit
[07:17] <Travesty> been using it for over a year. never had this issue
[07:17] <Travesty> anyway,
[07:17] <eb0t> it allows you to hide your original source of your connection
[07:17] <cybrhuman> Travesty: but, it seems that your skype client allows random messages from everyone?
[07:17] <eb0t> hopefully providing privacy
[07:18] <Travesty> I have it set up that way for a reason cybrhuman
[07:18] <eb0t> as well as abilty to route traffic thorug a specific location
[07:18] <Travesty> just need to find this ip
[07:18] <eb0t> its your bouncer
[07:18] <eb0t> you shot yourself in the foot
[07:18] <eb0t> they probably have your bank details too
[07:18] <Travesty> OVER A YEAR WITH NO ISSUE
[07:18] <Travesty> I don't bank online FUCKNUTS
[07:18] <eb0t> yes whilste tye were on recon
[07:18] <wxz> what's an enhanced zoom alternative for metacity?
[07:18] <eb0t> if i were you i would go back to windows
[07:18] <eb0t> and get a tv
[07:19] <basil1x> Is the reason to be deliberately annoying to others whenever someone takes advantage of your vulnerability?
[07:19] <Travesty> eb0t ignored. YAY
[07:19] <eb0t> Travesty: ....your name says it all
[07:19] <Travesty> no more bullshit from that one.
[07:19] <Phillies> kahtahs_,  tyvm
[07:19] <Phillies> worked
[07:19] <eb0t> not for you but eveyrone else can relish my witt
[07:20] <eb0t> maybe this guy should go on an internet surfing course
[07:20] <eb0t> a bouncer...ha ha
[07:20] <eb0t> never heard such codswallop in my life
[07:20] <eb0t> this guy has put my back out..i was laughing so hard.
[07:21] <eb0t> im gonna sue him for being too funny
[07:21] <ObrienDave> !ot | eb0t
[07:22] <eb0t> ah by the way what is this ubuntu distro like
[07:22] <cybrhuman> Travesty: okay. but as your account name is now known by some spam network I don't see a good solution to this.
[07:22] <eb0t> i want to install ubuntu ...and can anyone advise a bouncer i can use on it
[07:23] <cybrhuman> Travesty: I'd think you'd have more luck just giving the bot name to Skype.
[07:24] <Travesty> or I can give the IP to skype so they can track the phucker down, and ban that network for life @ cybrhuman
[07:24] <Travesty> would only take a phone call if I had the IP
[07:24] <Travesty> duh?
[07:24] <kahtahs_> clearly you do not know how skype support works
[07:24] <cybrhuman> Travesty: uhm, I doubt that, if it been that simple we would not have a spam issue ever.
[07:24] <Travesty> oh really?
[07:25] <kahtahs_> Travesty: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10001/how-do-i-report-abuse-by-someone-in-skype?
[07:26] <basil1x> Oy vey.  This has become silly.   Your Skype spam issues, while unfortunate, are not an Ubuntu issue. Anything else we can help you with?
[07:28] <Travesty> GFYS rww
[07:28] <rww> and, regardless, please calm down and moderate your language
[07:29] <Travesty> what language?
[07:29] <rww> #ubuntu doesn't do cursing, or abbreviations thereof
[07:29] <Travesty> dummy? that's language?
[07:29] <rww> so yes. Do you have a support question we can help you with?
[07:29] <ObrienDave> obfuscated swearing
[07:29] <linux> how come in 14.10 i cant find my unity or advanced settings in the software center
[07:29] <Travesty> what DE do you have linux?
[07:30] <Travesty> have you tried reconfiguring your UI?
[07:30] <linux> umm unity
[07:30] <xhor> Any idea what is the "application name" of evolution-mail or evolution-calendar? In the software center, it tells me it's installed, yet I can't find it in the app list (nothing containing 'evol' or 'mail' or 'calendar')
[07:31] <Travesty> sudo dpkg --reconfigure gdm in terminal or CLI?
[07:31] <linux> is tht cmd line for me or
[07:31] <Travesty> terminal or CLI will work
[07:31] <xhor> for that matter, is there a table somewhere containing 'package name', 'ubuntu store name' and 'application name within ubuntu' thing?
[07:32] <linux> for me or someone else
[07:32] <rww> linux: myunity isn't in 14.10's repositories.
[07:32] <Travesty> depending on how you have your system configured; also, did you try installing unity?
[07:32] <xhor> I find it a little difficult that each application has three distinct names within ubuntu
[07:32] <linux> damn it i love tht app to tweak out unity
[07:32] <Travesty> anything you removed recently linux?
[07:32] <rww> linux: as it stopped working with Unity past 14.04.
[07:32] <rww> linux: try unity tweak tool, i guess
[07:33] <rww> linux: 12.04, sorry **
[07:33] <linux> ok i will thx
[07:33] <rww> oh, that's not in 14.10 either. sigh.
[07:33] <Travesty> or did you enable the upper left corner mouse pointer option in ubuntu tweak or settings?
[07:33] <kahtahs_> Travesty: please look up what registrar abuse is
[07:33] <rww> kahtahs_: I think we've moved on, thankfully.
[07:34] <BusinessMan> are there other channels with lots of ppl?
[07:34] <rww> BusinessMan: /msg alis list * -min 1000
[07:34] <BusinessMan> gracias
[07:35] <linux> unity tweak tool says schemas missing and idk how to install the nessary packages
[07:36] <snappy> q: how does /etc/network/interfaces choose the src ip address for a gateway route if there's multiple sub-interfaces (e.g. eth0:0) defined with ip addresses
[07:36] <snappy> for example: http://codepad.org/W12OmDzd
[07:36] <snappy> eth0 is specified with address <IP_ADDRESS> but the src ip for the route is <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:37] <xhor> do you know what the name of 'evolution mail' or 'evolution calendar' is within ubuntu?
[07:37] <xhor> the ubuntu software center tells me those are already installed, yet I can't find them in the app lists
[07:38] <BusinessMan> why ar there no business channels?
[07:38] <cybrhuman> BusinessMan: because this is freenode, not capitalistnode
[07:39] <linux> lol i like tht name cyberhuman
[07:39] <cybrhuman> xhor: are you looking in your application menu?
[07:39] <xhor> cyberhuman: is it possible that not all apps show up under gnome shell from ubuntu? I am using the stock ubuntu with gnome-shell installed
[07:39] <BusinessMan> lol
[07:40] <BusinessMan> cybrhuman: funny
[07:40] <eb0t> BusinessMan: just google business irc channels
[07:40] <cybrhuman> xhor: well, yes, but evolution should be conifgured to work with gnome stuff as it is gnome stuff IIRC.
[07:40] <BusinessMan> barely any come up
[07:41] <_MisterZ_> Is it there? launch it from terminal
[07:41] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: so i went back to yahoo mail as active window and tried control - z, but it did not return to the place i was at before consulting you -- but i found that if i input some text, highlighted, and deleted, and then immediately used control - z, it did in fact retrieve the text. that still doesn't tell me why u recommend against using a keylogger solution?
[07:41] <xhor> cybrhuman: oh, looks like 'evolution mail and calendar' is not installed, but something called 'evolution calendar' is installed, yet there is no 'calendar' app
[07:41] <basil1x> BusinessMan, Please, this is a help channel, not a networking channel.  Use the -offtopic channel to drum up room occupants if you must.  Just not here.
[07:41] <flipfry> any good channel for cross compiling noobs?
[07:42] <BusinessMan> im not drumming up anthing
[07:43] <BusinessMan> theres nobody anywhere else
[07:43] <_MisterZ_> I'd try re-installing them just in case there any missing dependencies.
[07:45]  * basil1x checks... hmmm... lots of people everywhere...
[07:45] <camara_> bonjour
[07:45] <camara_> hello
[07:46] <slyhackr> So, after testing firefox without hardware acceleration, this glitching is still happeining. I might have to give pale moon or iceweasel a try.
[07:46] <somsip> !night | BusinessMan (and offtopic, as you have been politely told)
[07:47] <Blaster> How do you create a symbolic link to a samba share in the home directory if the link is smb://redstar/abc
[07:48] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: did you try hitting ctrl-z several times? usually works. Other than that I just recommend using a tool that does support text editing well, like libreoffice or something. That is much simpler and more welltested solutions than using keyloggers, which is going to be complicated and prone to coming bak to you with a vengeance.
[07:48] <_MisterZ_> *waves*
[07:49] <BusinessMan> ok
[07:50] <cybrhuman> flipfry: I guess #gentoo is a good channel for crosscompiling, they tend to need it
[07:51] <flipfry> ill check it out
[07:51] <cybrhuman> xhor: did installing that package help?
[07:52] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: i agree, and in most cases where i would be composing some formal doc, i would indeed be using libreoffice, or even a lowly notepad -- but often this happens when commenting in public forums etc, so you are inputting on any number of places. after you've put several paragraphs together its very frustrating when they just disappear. but i will continue to use 'control - z' no doubt, and i shall be eternally greatful for
[07:52] <basil1x> crosscompiling:  Compiling whilst angry.
[07:52] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: just ctrl-c (copy) from libreoffice and ctrl-v (paste) in the input box.
[07:53] <cybrhuman> anyone know how to disable mousepad while typing in 14.04 and 14.10?
[07:53] <mikubuntu> cybrhuman: will do -- ty
[07:54] <cybrhuman> mikubuntu: ctrl-c (copy) ctrl-v (paste) ctrl-x (cut) .. he left.
[07:55] <pantato> anyone know a place where logs for samba are stored beside /var/log/samba
[07:56] <xhor> cybrhuman: well, looks like installing evolution-calendar should also drag along evolution-mail since it's not standalone
[07:56] <xhor> cybrhuman: it doesn't currently
[07:57] <cybrhuman> xhor: have you installed "evolution mail and calendar"?
[07:57] <cybrhuman> pantato: might be some info in /var/log/syslog
[07:57] <xhor> cybrhuman: for some reason, I had 'evolution calendar' installed without evolution mail, hence the confusion
[07:58] <cybrhuman> xhor: yes, but have you installed the missing package and does it work now?
[08:00] <xhor> cybrhuman: yes I did and it does
[08:04] <Soothsayer> Can a variable name be used in a crontab file? (to a) store the name of a command b) console arguments c) the time interval for this cron job)
[08:06] <somsip> Soothsayer: how would you use a variable in any of those situations? Either to read it or pass it?
[08:06] <Soothsayer> somsip: didn’t get your question..
[08:07] <Soothsayer> 0 */3 * * *  $APP_CONSOLE $STORE_CATALOG_PRODUCT_SYNCHRONIZE --store=foo
[08:07] <somsip> Soothsayer: so environmental variables for a), yes if the env is accessible to cron
[08:08] <Soothsayer> somsip: I am declaring the environment variable in the crontab file itself.. for example >  APP_CONSOLE=php /home/foo/app/console --env=prod
[08:08] <luohy> who
[08:09] <somsip> Soothsayer: to what end? I see no benefit on the face of it
[08:09] <Soothsayer> somsip: i have to setup more than 100+ cron jobs.. so i want to kepe the file manageable
[08:09] <Soothsayer> than being repetitive about the command
[08:10] <Lipkii> how can i make the apps bar transparent?
[08:10] <somsip> Soothsayer: fair enough, yes you can then. Seems that you may be better suited with something else, depending on your use case
[08:11] <Soothsayer> somsip: i have been looking for a cron alternative.. but no luck, i’ll rework our application itself to have a cron entry point and then create jobs in a background queue in the near future, but right now i needn an immediately deployable solution
[08:11] <Flannel> Soothsayer: What are these 100 cron jobs doing differently?  As I suspect you might be going about this from an odd angle if you really need 100 cron jobs that differ only slightly.
[08:11] <Soothsayer> Flannel: they manage different clients syncing
[08:11] <Soothsayer> so the client name (or store id) is different for each
[08:12] <somsip> Soothsayer: ok - as Flannel infers, of they are mostly similar, maybe better to have one cron job that passes control to a bash script to do the fine detail. At least then you can loop round arrays of client names/store ids
[08:12] <somsip> *if
[08:12] <Soothsayer> somsip: that’s my next step.. creating .sh files
[08:12] <somsip> Soothsayer: I'd suggest it's a first step. But your call
[08:13] <Soothsayer> but the frequency of a job for some client may be customized, so i want to see what pattern i identify first
[08:13] <Flannel> Soothsayer: You might be better off, in the short term (your hacky fix before really handling it) is to create a script that'll just add all 100 of them to cron (with everything hard coded).  But I agree, doing a script that you call 100 times and it dispatches various things is probably your best bet.
[08:13] <Soothsayer> Flannel:  somsip  this is what it looks like so far - http://pastie.org/private/wc0qhfl8ygbf3wqwufpzg
[08:14]  * luohy
[08:15] <Soothsayer> Flannel: ye, im going to do a quick script in php / node js that outputs the actual crontab file for now.. but i wanted some readability to it too (in case of long command names, etc).. cause sometimes we may want to customize / tweak during runtime to see how it performs
[08:15] <Soothsayer> Flannel: somsip does the file I pasted look like a sensible good start?
[08:15] <Flannel> Soothsayer: I'd say just create the cron file and then if you want to tweak something, (clear it and) recreate it
[08:15] <somsip> Soothsayer: and if that goes on for 100 cronjobs, it will get ugly. If you have the same 3 cronjobs for X different stores, it's asking for a loop. Difficult with knowing your full use case, but better to get a more extensible solution as early as you can
[08:15] <Flannel> Soothsayer: (for the hacky solution, anyway)
[08:16] <Soothsayer> hmm.. ok. its just our db doesn’t maintain flags yet for which stores can have crons which can’t.. so we’ll take a tad more time creating the console output. but i get what you mean
[08:16] <pantato> cybrhuman, says it's not a directory derp
[08:16] <Soothsayer> either way, if the script outs a crontab file like the one I pasted, is it acceptable? Flannel somsip
[08:17] <Flannel> Soothsayer: This sounds vastly too complicated for cron, haha
[08:17] <Soothsayer> Flannel: we will ahve RabbitMQ up in the coming weeks, until then, save us!
[08:17] <cybrhuman> pantato: no, it is a logfile.
[08:17] <somsip> Soothsayer: it'll work. Anything that works is acceptable :) It's just whether it's best... Always outside factors like time constraints, etc.
[08:17] <Soothsayer> my only constraint now is time, debug-ease and manageability in the short-term
[08:18] <pantato> ooooh durrr
[08:18] <pantato> thanks
[08:19] <pantato> for some reason samba is denying my computer access to the folder
[08:19] <pantato> it stopped working after i logged into another windows account to access a different account
[08:19] <pantato> it usually doesn't hurt it but i left my other account logged in that time
[08:20] <pantato> the folks in #samba are dead i guess
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> for all users who own a samsung evo 840 on ubuntu, they released a performance firmware on their site
[08:26] <msgol> Ding!
[08:42] <jjjokers> how to access apache virtual hosting if no dns pointing to it anymore?
[08:42] <jjjokers> for example shared hosting, site migrated away, dns pointing to different server, how can still access to old site?
[08:43] <jjjokers> ?
[08:43] <lotuspsychje> jjjokers: that might be a question for the ##networking guys

[08:51] <White_Cat> I however am unble to login as this user using WinSCP
[08:52] <White_Cat> nor can I log in using SSH
[08:52] <White_Cat> how can I fix this?
[08:52] <White_Cat> possibly the problem is the --system  flag

[09:15] <skyfall> hello everyone
[09:16] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: hi
[09:16] <pra> hi skyfall
[09:18] <skyfall> im using ubuntu 14.10 and skype is still not running in it :(
[09:18] <skyfall> it's getting installed but when i click on the icon nothing opens up. should i be installing it using wine ??
[09:19] <cfhowlett> skyfall, nope.  you should not be using wine!
[09:19] <skyfall> cfhowlett, any other methods to install /.
[09:19] <skyfall> ?
[09:19] <cfhowlett> skyfall, use the terminal to start:  skype               note any error messages returned
[09:20] <skyfall> cfhowlett, i removed skype now. is there any other similar applications /
[09:20] <skyfall> ?
[09:20] <cfhowlett> !skype | skyfall, wait, you already deleted it?
[09:21] <cfhowlett> skyfall, people seem to like google hangouts ....
[09:21] <skyfall> cfhowlett, google hangouts available on linux ?
[09:21] <cfhowlett> skyfall, no app, it's web-based as I understand it.
[09:22] <skyfall> cfhowlett, does ekiga has good encryption ?
[09:22] <cfhowlett> skyfall, can't say as I've never used it.
[09:22] <skyfall> cfhowlett, what is ur suggestion for me ?
[09:22] <skyfall> should i be installing skype again or ?
[09:23] <cfhowlett> skyfall, sudo apt-get udpate && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get install skype
[09:23] <skyfall> cfhowlett, its the same way i did before . but its not getting runned
[09:24] <cfhowlett> skyfall, understood.  run skype from the terminal to find out why it fails
[09:24] <skyfall> cfhowlett, let me install it once again. let's have a try
[09:25] <skyfall> cfhowlett, please guide me through the steps
[09:26] <cfhowlett> skyfall, sudo apt-get update
[09:26] <skyfall> cfhowlett, ok done !
[09:26] <cfhowlett> skyfall, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:27] <skyfall> cfhowlett, on the process :)
[09:28] <skyfall> cfhowlett, for what is the second command for ?
[09:29] <cfhowlett> skyfall, first update =refresh your filesystem library, dist-upgrade = refresh with the latest packages in your distro
[09:31] <skyfall> cfhowlett, ok . i completed both the steps you told me. what is the net step ?
[09:31] <^DVD-R^> hello people
[09:31] <cfhowlett> skyfall, sudo apt-get install skype
[09:31] <^DVD-R^> i borught a USB western digital elements 2tb drive and have plugged it in but in /media all i see is cdrom?
[09:32] <^DVD-R^> if i do lsusb it shows: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1058:10b8 Western Digital Technologies, Inc.
[09:32] <^DVD-R^> which i presume is the drive
[09:32] <^DVD-R^> any ideas?
[09:32] <skyfall> cfhowlett, its showing this message; "Package 'skype:i386' has no installation candidate
[09:32] <skyfall> "
[09:33] <^DVD-R^> im on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS
[09:33] <cfhowlett> skyfall, you're running ubuntu on a 32 bit machine?
[09:33] <skyfall> no. on a 64 bit
[09:33] <OerHeks> skype is in the partnerrepo
[09:34] <skyfall> cfhowlett, no. im using it on my 64 bit laptop
[09:34] <cfhowlett> skyfall, your source file seems to point to 32 bit repos, so I'm guessing your machine is 64 bit, but you installed 32 bit.
[09:34] <OerHeks> ^DVD-R^, open nautilus, do you see the hdd mounted?
[09:35] <skyfall> cfhowlett, i didn get you .  you mean the os ?
[09:35] <tapout> how do i find out which package provided a file?  like...  /usr/bin/qmkae
[09:35] <cfhowlett> skyfall      yep, you installed 386/32 bit ubuntu, not 64 bit.  I don't know the command to verify this though.  OerHeks ???
[09:35] <OerHeks> !find qmkae
[09:36] <tapout> !find qmake
[09:36] <tapout> /usr/bin/qmake
[09:37] <skyfall> cfhowlett, i dont think so. because i downloaded 64 bit 14,04 LTS and upgraded to 14.10
[09:37] <cfhowlett> skyfall, be that as it may ... skype is rejecting your request for 386 version ....
[09:37] <OerHeks> skyfall, open softwarecenter > edit > sources, and enable the 'canonical partner ' repo , i have 64 bit too and have installed skype:386, that is oke
[09:38] <OerHeks> ubuntu is multi-arch now
[09:38] <^DVD-R^> checking
[09:39] <^DVD-R^> ive only got ssh access BTW
[09:39] <skyfall> OerHeks, should i enable source code too ?
[09:40] <OerHeks> skyfall, no, unless you want to develop something and need to build from source.
[09:40] <skyfall> OerHeks, ok . done. now what shoudld i do ?
[09:40] <^DVD-R^> apt get install nautilus @ the moment
[09:40] <skyfall> sudo apt-get install skype ?
[09:40] <OerHeks> skyfall, close the source window, it asks to reload, press yes
[09:41] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: you really don't need nautilus, "sudo blkid"
[09:41] <^DVD-R^> i know nothing about lunix
[09:41] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: well nautilus is graphical, and if all you have is SSH, that will not work
[09:41] <^DVD-R^> nice
[09:41] <skyfall> OerHeks, it didn asked anything.
[09:41] <^DVD-R^> will do slkid
[09:41] <^DVD-R^> will do bkid
[09:42] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: so type "sudo blkid" and it should show you all the drives, partitions, and the filesystem type
[09:42] <skyfall> OerHeks, i just closed the software centre window.
[09:42] <^DVD-R^> ok 2 secs
[09:42] <^DVD-R^> its installing loads of crap
[09:42] <OerHeks> skyfall, in softwarecenter type skype, and go for it
[09:42] <^DVD-R^> root@pwsers:/dev# sudo blkid
[09:42] <^DVD-R^> root@pwsers:/dev#
[09:42] <^DVD-R^> b
[09:42] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: yeah... it'll do that if you install a graphical program on a server install
[09:42] <^DVD-R^> .dev/sdf1: LABEL="Elements" UUID="5C86177186174AC2" TYPE="ntfs"
[09:43] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: you're probably correct
[09:43] <OerHeks> yay, there it is DVD-R
[09:43] <skyfall> OerHeks, but still only plugins are showing
[09:44] <^DVD-R^> root@pwsers:/dev# cd sdf1
[09:44] <^DVD-R^> -bash: cd: sdf1: Not a directory
[09:44] <jnhghy> I need to create a multiboot usb stick, I have the .iso files (all linux, ubuntu derivates) I've tried building it with yumi but I get boot error: no default or ... detected what other mutli boot creator is there for ubuntu?
[09:44] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: indeed, sdf1 is a block device, not a directory. you need to have it mounted in order to access it
[09:44] <^DVD-R^> ben im a complete lunix newbie
[09:44] <cfhowlett> jnhghy, pendrivelinux
[09:44] <skyfall> OerHeks, what should i do ?
[09:44] <^DVD-R^> more of a windows admin
[09:45] <^DVD-R^> how does 1 mount
[09:45] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: type "mount" and see if you see sdf1 listed anywhere
[09:45] <^DVD-R^> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7730603/MOUNT.JPG
[09:45] <^DVD-R^> thats the info
[09:45] <Ben64> jpg for text? interesting
[09:46] <^DVD-R^> lots of text
[09:46] <^DVD-R^> lol
[09:46] <^DVD-R^> didnt want to flood channel
[09:46] <Ben64> theres pastebin.com :)
[09:46] <cfhowlett> ^DVD-R^, deeply appreciated
[09:46]  * ^DVD-R^ awaits cookie
[09:47] <Ben64> so you need to make a directory where you'll have the partition mounted, then mount said partition to said directory
[09:47] <OerHeks> skyfall so after closing the sources window, you had no question about reloading ? don't believe that
[09:47] <Ben64> !cookie | ^DVD-R^
[09:47] <^DVD-R^> yepppie
[09:47] <^DVD-R^> ok ben
[09:47] <^DVD-R^> so how do i do that
[09:47] <^DVD-R^> :/
[09:47] <cfhowlett> skyfall, no alert of reloading?  not normal
[09:47] <skyfall> OerHeks, i will do once again.
[09:47] <skyfall> cfhowlett, no. nothing popped up.
[09:47] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get update # this will reload the sources with new partner sources repo
[09:48] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: so the mount command should be ... "mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdf1 /path/to/directory-you-should-have-made-before-this-command/"
[09:48] <Mikasa> if it is stated that: All sizes must be given in either %, em, or rem., does that mean that I can mix between those three or do I have to choose one exclusively?
[09:49] <^DVD-R^> so if i create a folder in /home/mymount and then do mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdf1 /home/mymount ?
[09:49] <mdoge> yes that will work
[09:50] <^DVD-R^> oooh
[09:50] <^DVD-R^> root@pwsers:/dev# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdf1 /home/mymount
[09:50] <^DVD-R^> The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
[09:50] <^DVD-R^> The file system wasn't safely closed on Windows. Fixing.
[09:50] <^DVD-R^> root@pwsers:/dev#
[09:50] <skyfall> OerHeks, i opened software centre>edit>software sources>other software> ticked canonical partners >close
[09:51] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: well, you gotta fix that in windows
[09:51] <skyfall> OerHeks, still no question for reloading
[09:51] <^DVD-R^> the drive is blank
[09:51] <^DVD-R^> no data on there
[09:51] <Ben64> still unclean apparently
[09:51] <^DVD-R^> if i now go to /home/mymount i can see $RECYCLE.BIN
[09:52] <Ben64> oh my mistake, i didn't read your whole message
[09:52] <^DVD-R^> which i presume is the drive
[09:52] <Ben64> i thought it was the "i can't mount this because it is unclean"
[09:52] <^DVD-R^> so all looks ok now?
[09:53] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: yeah, seems mounted now
[09:53] <^DVD-R^> sweet, thank you x
[09:53] <skyfall> cfhowlett, OerHeks ??
[09:53] <^DVD-R^> one more question, if i wanted to copy data from local disk to USB whats the SSH command?
[09:54] <OerHeks> skyfal open terminal again: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype
[09:54] <Ben64> ^DVD-R^: "cp" is copy
[09:54] <skyfall> OerHeks, ok. letme try
[09:54] <cfhowlett> skyfall, skype is in the partner repo.  disabled partner  repo = no skype for you
[09:55] <mdoge> ^DVD-R^: SSH needs a network connection. No point in using SSH if it is all local.
[09:55] <mdoge> ^DVD-R^: cp <path_to_file> <path_to_destination>
[09:55] <^DVD-R^> cheers
[09:55] <Ben64> mdoge: meh, i ssh to computers in my house all the time
[09:56] <skyfall> OerHeks, it worked i think.
[09:56] <OerHeks> skyfall, have fun
[09:56] <skyfall> OerHeks, its downloading . thank you
[09:56] <mdoge> Ben64: thats not what i meant :-)
[09:57] <skyfall> OerHeks, letme see whether it works or not. hope it will
[09:57] <skyfall> cfhowlett, thank you too.

[10:02] <^DVD-R^> can it out put %?
[10:02] <skyfall> OerHeks, still same problem :(
[10:02] <skyfall> cfhowlett, :(
[10:02] <mdoge> ^DVD-R^: you canot afaik, but you can with rsync
[10:02] <mdoge> which is a whole different story
[10:02] <^DVD-R^> ok sod that
[10:02] <cfhowlett> skyfall, download it directly from skype.com     should be a .deb
[10:03] <skyfall> cfhowlett, its getting installed correctly. but dont know why its not getting runned
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: did you already paste errors from starting skype from terminal like cfhowlett sugested?
[10:03] <OerHeks> after install skype, you have to reboot, AFAIK
[10:03] <cfhowlett> skyfall, what error messages?
[10:03] <skyfall> cfhowlett, you told me to run it from terminal right ?
[10:03] <cfhowlett> OerHeks, ?  really?  that's sounds very ... windowsy
[10:03] <tapout> !find libqxcb.so
[10:04] <OerHeks> yeah, it didn't work for me after install, noticed that before, happened on 14.10 again
[10:04] <skyfall> OerHeks, should i reboot ?
[10:04] <mdoge> only kernel modifications should require a reboot on linux
[10:04] <mdoge> not ... skype.
[10:05] <OerHeks> mdoge, i know, sounds silly
[10:05] <lotuspsychje> if OerHeks says it helped..why not try it?
[10:05] <cfhowlett> skyfall, won't hurt to try ...
[10:05] <mdoge> sure, whatever :p
[10:05] <skyfall> cfhowlett, yeah. im on it.  will be right back guys !
[10:05] <moldy> hi
[10:05] <OerHeks> as if it starts a service we don't know of...
[10:05] <ircmaniak> in bash i've seen something awsome: run some commands in a dir, that was removed. and i even get some  errors, that i had when executable was still there
[10:06] <Ben64> ircmaniak: what?
[10:06] <moldy> i want to get ubuntu on my macbook (existing os x installation can be destroyed, no dual boot needed). how do i go about this? which version do i download? anything special i have to know?
[10:06] <cfhowlett> !mac | moldy
[10:06] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: you have the 12.04 skype .deb from web running on 14.10?
[10:06] <moldy> cfhowlett: thanks
[10:06] <cfhowlett> moldy, 14.04.1 is the version you want.
[10:07] <OerHeks> lotuspsychje, no, just the skype thing from partner repo.
[10:07] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: ok
[10:07] <cfhowlett> moldy, I've been sneaking into the corner at the Apple store and live booting ubuntustudio.  fun times.
[10:07] <OerHeks> = same ,  and you will get updates
[10:07] <moldy> cfhowlett: my main concern is that i need to get this up and running quickly and with minimal effort
[10:08] <cfhowlett> moldy, eh ... not.  mac will require some degree of tweaking to work as I understand it.  if you need point and click, get a windows machine
[10:08] <moldy> cfhowlett: a macbook is the only laptop i have right now, but i am not a mac user. and i want to use it as a conference tomorrow, so i need linux on there ;)
[10:08] <skyfall> cfhowlett, no changE !!!
[10:09] <moldy> "at a conference"
[10:09] <skyfall> OerHeks, no change
[10:09] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: paste us the errors plz
[10:09] <moldy> cfhowlett: so i must somehow set this up while working today
[10:09] <cfhowlett> moldy, should have set this up last week then :)  try it but be aware that you may feel some pain.
[10:09] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, how can i get the errors ?
[10:09] <moldy> cfhowlett: ok, i will just cross my fingers
[10:09] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: start skype from terminal as cfhowlett suggested
[10:09] <cfhowlett> moldy, also, hope you don't need the camera.  new icam doesn't like ubuntu
[10:10] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, command please?
[10:10] <cfhowlett> skyfall, terminal:  skype                 note the errors
[10:10] <lotuspsychje> !paste | skyfall
[10:11] <moldy> cfhowlett: no, i don't need any multimedia stuff. i basically need my familiar vim + zsh environment ;)
[10:11] <moldy> cfhowlett: i do need wireless though
[10:12] <skyfall> cfhowlett, im not clear with the command
[10:12] <skyfall> cfhowlett, i have a terminal opened right now. please tell me what to type in it.
[10:13] <cfhowlett> moldy, suggestion:  get the .iso, make the usb, boot.  on my test machines, wifi did not work but ... go to filesystem > cdrom> pool >main         and pool > restricted           sudo dpkg -i dkms and broadcom                    wifi came up
[10:13] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: skype
[10:13] <skyfall> just skype ?
[10:13] <lotuspsychje> yes
[10:13] <moldy> cfhowlett: ok, thanks. i will give it a try as soon as the backup is done (~30 minutes)
[10:13] <cfhowlett> skyfall, samuel l. jackson says:  SKYPE
[10:13] <skyfall> cfhowlett, "skype: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[10:14] <moldy> cfhowlett: the sheer amount of documentation on this is confusing :-/
[10:14] <cfhowlett> moldy, if you can get the live sesssion running, you might consider skipping the actual installation.
[10:14] <cfhowlett> moldy, go pm?
[10:14] <moldy> cfhowlett: sure
[10:15] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, any idea ?
[10:15] <skyfall> OerHeks, ? cfhowlett ?
[10:15] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: you sure your grafix driver is installed correctly?
[10:16] <skyfall> yes.
[10:16] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: what kind of card and driver?
[10:16] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, im using bumblebee to configure apps ?
[10:16] <OerHeks> "If skype doesn't work but optirun skype does work, then you can fix it with: sudo apt-get install bumblebee-nvidia --reinstall "
[10:17] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: http://askubuntu.com/questions/257897/error-loading-libgl-so-1
[10:17] <skyfall> OerHeks, i have bumblebee with me
[10:17] <OerHeks> lotuspsychje, are you on my wifi ? :-D
[10:17] <lotuspsychje> Ben64: bumblebee changed in nvidia-prime now right?
[10:18] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: yes, and i use your wake up alarm too :p
[10:18] <skyfall> OerHeks, what should i do ? i already enabled skype using bumblebee
[10:20] <OerHeks> skyfall, you enabled skype using bumblebee ?
[10:22] <ircmaniak> Ben64 i cd /some/dir run comman -> get erors (for example errors, or may be just status) -> delete /some/dir in nautilus -> go back to bash> pwd - sais dir exist, run same command -> get same text output in terminal window, check in second terminal tab if directory exist with ls -la  - it doesn't
[10:23] <ircmaniak> it's probably some other crazy bash bug
[10:24] <ircmaniak> because it interacts with executables moved to trash (without any sign to user)
[10:25] <Sohail-Ahmed> I am having a little problem connecting to internet with my desktop over vlan. I can ping the gateway but pinging to google fails. Though over the different network, I mean not over vlan the system works prefectly. Any help plz
[10:25] <lotuspsychje> Sohail-Ahmed: maybe the ##networking guys might able to help
[10:26] <Sohail-Ahmed> lotuspsychje: thanks for responding. going to networking.
[10:27] <lotuspsychje> Sohail-Ahmed: if you sure its not an ubuntu problem, might be driver issue to
[10:28] <pstar1> does ubuntu offer full disk encryption on ssd drive
[10:28] <Sohail-Ahmed> lotuspsychje: How can I confirm this?
[10:28] <Ben64> ircmaniak: not a bug
[10:28] <lotuspsychje> pstar1: i dont see why encryption would not work on ssd aswell
[10:28] <OerHeks> pstar yes, you will get that option during install
[10:28] <pstar1> ok thanks
[10:29] <lotuspsychje> pstar1: what kind of ssd you have on ubuntu?
[10:29] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, the only way it worked is
[10:29] <skyfall> running skype using the following command
[10:29] <lotuspsychje> Sohail-Ahmed: try check your additional drivers section
[10:29] <skyfall> LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 skype
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: try reinstall grafix driver
[10:30] <pstar1> im not running ubuntu right now justed wanted to know if it would work
[10:30] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, how ?
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: goto your additional driver section
[10:31] <tapout> !find libEGL.so.1
[10:31] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, yes. then ?
[10:31] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: what driver is enabled?
[10:32] <skyfall> Nvidia corporation :GF119M (520mx)
[10:32] <Sohail-Ahmed> lotuspsychje: I know that there are issues regarding vlan support for drivers, but I am confused that how to make sure that I am not one  of the vitims of incompatatibility. One way to do is to note the driver and then check the driver details over the internet, correct?
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: any other drivers listed?
[10:33] <skyfall> yes.
[10:33] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, YES.
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: try another one and reboot, check skype...
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: test a bit yourself
[10:33] <skyfall> lotuspsychje, but its showing its using the recommended driver
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: we need to findout whats preventing skype to start, so this is for testing
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> skyfall: you can re-enable if it doesnt work
[10:35] <skyfall> ok
[10:35] <lotuspsychje> Sohail-Ahmed: lshw -C network and check what drivername is after =
[10:35] <dnivra> hello everyone! I'm running Kubuntu 14.04.1. Recently, the package gcr was installed on my machine which meant that it prompted for the password to decrypt private keys. I uninstalled gcr but now applications such as git cannot decrypt the key and thus fail. How can I return to the old behaviour where I'm prompted for password everytime the keys requires decrypting?
[10:37] <OerHeks> dnivra, i hope you did not use purge .. i think just reinstall would make it work
[10:37] <bentygiulio> hello
[10:38] <bentygiulio> i have a question about vmware player
[10:38] <dnivra> OerHeks: No I ran "apt-get remove gcr". By reinstall, did you mean reinstalling gcr? If so, I do not want that. gcr displays a GUI prompt once and caches the decrypted key in memory I think. I would like to avoid that.
[10:39] <bentygiulio> there is any anyone that know the program?
[10:39] <OerHeks> dnivra, i think it is one way to make decrypt those keys possible
[10:39] <Ben64> bentygiulio: vmware isn't supported here
[10:41] <bentygiulio> yes but i have a problem in ubuntu 14.04
[10:42] <lotuspsychje> !info virtualbox | bentygiulio
[10:42] <bentygiulio> i created 3 VM 6 months ago ... yesterday evening i upgreded my version from 12.04 to 14.04
[10:43] <bentygiulio> and now doesn't work anything under vmware
[10:44] <EriC^^> bentygiulio: what do you mean by it doesn't work?
[10:46] <bentygiulio> when i lunch vmware player i recive the error and the program goes in crash
[10:46] <EriC^^> bentygiulio: what's the error?
[10:46] <bentygiulio> ok... wait...
[10:47] <bentygiulio> before you can run VMware, several modules must be compiled and loaded into the running kernel
[10:47] <bentygiulio> now i clik on install
[10:47] <Ben64> yep, vmware still isn't supported here. i don't even think vmware supports it unless you pay for it
[10:48] <apg> Hi, i got a question here
[10:48] <apg> what does GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID mean?
[10:48] <bentygiulio> Ben64 vmware player is free
[10:48] <EriC^^> apg: sounds like the session id of the gnome desktop
[10:49] <bentygiulio> ! virtual Network Device
[10:49] <EriC^^> apg: i guess it's an environment variable
[10:49] <apg> is it an id, code, of a program that running?
[10:49] <EriC^^> man this is odd my ubuntu is disintegrating
[10:50] <bentygiulio> ubottu ?????
[10:50] <EriC^^> came home to find xchat looked like xchat 1980's or something, and then recent appeared in nautilus and can't seem to remove it, and now ctrl+alt+t isn't opening the terminal
[10:51] <EriC^^> apg: do you use gnome desktop?
[10:51] <EriC^^> apg: what are you trying to achieve?
[10:51] <Sohail-Ahmed> lotuspsychje: Thanks for suggesting a command. I am sorry, at present I dont have access to that system. Since its in some other room. So what you are saying that once I get the driver, I should check for vlan comptability, correct???
[10:51] <Ben64> bentygiulio: ubottu is a bot, not a person. and if you want to use vmware, you cannot use this channel to get support for it
[10:51] <Ben64> Sohail-Ahmed: you may need to register your nick to chat on certain channels
[10:52] <bentygiulio> OK... tks bye bye
[10:52] <Sohail-Ahmed> Ben64: Why am I being told this??
[10:53] <dnivra> OerHeks: Turns out ssh-agent was not running. Restarting the machine helped :). Thought I'd let you know. Thanks for helping out!
[10:53] <Ben64> Sohail-Ahmed: just because you currently cannot access ##networking doesn't mean you should ask networking questions here
[10:53] <OerHeks> dnivra, nice :-)
[11:00] <netzhaut> hi there. I've got an issue and was wondering if you could help: How can I get Unity to open new applications / windows on *my currently active* monitor instead of the built in monitor?
[11:00] <netzhaut> (I've got the laptop and an external monitor)
[11:00] <netzhaut> It's *really* annoying
[11:02] <kk_drop> I migrate node from csv source. all is ok except tems - it has 2 terms from same vocabulary in 2 columns. I've added mapping and it works for one field only. how to import 2 terms from 2 columns?
[11:02] <netzhaut> it means every time I open a file or something, it's opening on the laptop monitor. Which means my focus, head and eyes move to another monitor, then I need to move the mouse off the monitor, grab the window, and drag it back to where my attention just was.

[11:25] <brent> hi all :)
[11:29] <brent> i currently have a folder called /TV/TITLE/ with a few subfolders within  it. eg. /TITLE/Season 01/. I need to move any file that is in /TITLE/ to the "Season 01" folder that has "S01" in the file name. Anyone here able to help with a command to do this?
[11:30] <brent> im currently using the ubuntu desktop file manager and do a search for S01 and copy accordingly
[11:30] <xorred> guys, what is the alternative to validate installed packages in ubuntu, to redhats rpm –Va
[11:32] <ObrienDave> xorred, afaik that is part of apt-get already
[11:32] <xorred> yea obviously I don't know how to do that with apt-get?
[11:32] <xorred> I need to verify all installed packages
[11:33] <sacarlson> xorred: I guess to verify if corrupted or not?
[11:33] <neurotus> xorred: apt-get check ?
[11:33] <xorred> verify their integrity, yes
[11:33] <xorred> all packages, not just a single one
[11:34] <Ben64> there isn't really an analogue in apt-get for that
[11:34] <sacarlson> xorred: not exactly what you want but there is tripwire
[11:34] <xorred> tripwire does not know what were the original packages like... only after installation afaik
[11:36] <sacarlson> xorred: debsums
[11:41] <xorred> debsums is entirely different than rpm -Va sacarlson
[11:44] <sacarlson> xorred: it does about the same by validating md5 checksum from the arkives database to verify integrity.  is that much the same?
[11:45] <xorred> sacarlson: the output is miles and miles different in logic and usability, besides, md5 is not always the only thing important, there are other things in the meta-data which might have changed - access times, change times, etc
[11:46] <xorred> so far debsums only spits out 'missing files'
[11:46] <Ben64> xorred: there isn't anything similar
[11:46] <xorred> yea.. that's sad
[11:46] <giaco> ciao
[11:46] <xorred> ciao, giaco, come stai?
[11:46] <Ben64> xorred: not really, but ok
[11:46] <giaco> !list
[11:47] <giaco>  /msg ubottu !bot
[11:47] <xorred> lol
[11:54] <sacarlson> xorred: well I had to verify for myself by modifing /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/powersave.txt  with a few added letters in the file and ran debsums  and did get a fail from the results on that file
[11:54] <sacarlson> xorred: so I guess it checks for more than just missing files
[11:54] <xorred> sacarlson: my distro spits hundreds of thousands of fails, it's DEFT, so ... maybe I am testing on the wrong distro as this one is heavy modified
[11:57] <sacarlson> xorred: your right if I filter for just fails I'm now seeing more that the file that I modified
[11:57] <kims> ubuntu?
[11:57] <xorred> yea, but modified heavily
[11:58] <sacarlson> kims: no this is linux mint,  I'll again test this on ubuntu 14.04 I have in virtualbox
[11:59] <kims> yeah most user friendly linux
[11:59] <kims> linux mint
[12:00] <sacarlson> xorred: more I study the results the more the failed debsums are pointing at files from mint and mate
[12:01] <murosai> how can i listen for new entries in a file and copy them to other file?
[12:02] <murosai> tail -f file ... something maybe
[12:03] <sacarlson> xorred: total error count is about 78 on linux mint for debsums
[12:04] <giaco> comadi

[12:06] <phaidros> something is messed up with the archives, I am getting pubkey errors on apt-get update on multiple hosts .. :/
[12:07] <nwe> hello, I hav configure tftp-hpa but now when I trying to starting nothing happens.. and I dont get any error msg..
[12:09] <phaidros> at least de.archive.ubuntu.com has problems, as well as extras ..
[12:10] <phaidros> just tested fi.archive.ubuntu.com, which works :)
[12:11] <ObrienDave> phaidros, it happens sometimes
[12:12] <phaidros> ObrienDave: lots of handwork with alot of hosts which need upgrades :)
[12:12] <kims> Hi Dave :D
[12:13] <ObrienDave> o/
[12:20] <sacarlson> xorred: only 2 errors counted when I run debsums on lubuntu that I have in virtualbox.  the errors are on the kernel 3.13-0-32 and /sbin/start-stop-daemon
[12:20] <xorred> yea well deft is different :D
[12:21] <xorred> I suspect they removed a file from every single package
[12:21] <xorred> ffs

[12:23] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[12:24] <White_Cat> I created a user using sudo adduser --system --home=/opt/odoo --group odoo. I however am unble to login as this user using WinSCP nor can I log in using SSH. How can I fix this? Possibly the problem is the --system  flag...
[12:27] <geirha> White_Cat: yes, why did you make it a system user if you intended to log in with it?
[12:28] <BasY> Hi, I want default argument [--jobs=8] for each time i execute "make", how to configure that?
[12:28] <BluesKaj> frowni, my opnion, get another drive for ubuntu if you intend tio==
[12:29] <BluesKaj> frowni, my opnion, get another drive for ubuntu if you intend to use it as a permanent install
[12:29] <BluesKaj> my apologies for the repetition
[12:32] <santosh> hi
[12:32] <White_Cat> geirha I did not think it would be a problem
[12:32] <White_Cat> I am fairly new
[12:32] <White_Cat> I dont want to delete the account
[12:32] <harilal> i need help. i installed ubuntu 14.04 lts in a seperate partiotio. i am using windows too. but i cant login to windows now. the pc is booting directly to ubuntu. how can i install the boot loader /
[12:32] <harilal> anybody please help
[12:32] <cfhowlett> harilal, reinstall grub
[12:32] <ObrienDave> !grub | harilal
[12:32] <santosh> press esc
[12:33] <santosh> when booting
[12:33] <rypervenche> White_Cat: I would simply recreate the user. Why don't you want to delete it?
[12:33] <White_Cat> because I configured permissions to it
[12:33] <harilal> cfhowlett, how to reinstall? i i installed ubuntu after installing windows
[12:33] <White_Cat> its running odoo
[12:33] <cfhowlett> !grub2 | harilal
[12:33] <White_Cat> http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2014/09/how-to-install-openerp-odoo-8-on-ubuntu-server-14-04-lts/ <- I followed this
[12:34] <White_Cat> Is there a way to fix this without deleting the account?
[12:34] <rypervenche> White_Cat: You don't need to be able to log into the user to make changes to the files. What do you need to do?
[12:35] <White_Cat> I need to be able to login using WinSCP to add modules etc
[12:36] <rypervenche> White_Cat: You can use the root user to scp and simply put it into the odoo user's folder. You may need to allow root logins to be able to do that though. OR you can copy the files over to a different user's directory and then use sudo to move them over to the /opt/odoo directory.
[12:36] <White_Cat> sure, I want to avoid that complication
[12:36] <rypervenche> White_Cat: Which complication?
[12:36] <White_Cat> thats kinda the point as to why I want to be able to use the username odoo for this purpose
[12:37] <White_Cat> rypervenche what you described?
[12:37] <White_Cat> I am not asking for a workaround
[12:38] <White_Cat> How do I remove the --system flag without deleting the username/
[12:38] <rypervenche> White_Cat: Well you could change the UID, GID, give it a shell, add a password, and then change all of the permissions of the files in /opt/oboo. That would do it.
[12:39] <White_Cat> rypervenche it already hass a password
[12:40] <White_Cat> I dont want to modify UID GID probably
[12:40] <White_Cat> odoo runs a few services and I dont want to bother with the permissions either

[12:59] <BluesKaj> send him to the italian channeland he can try !list there , maybe word will get around that ubuntu isn't a file sharing chat
[13:00] <ObrienDave> right ;p
[13:00] <BluesKaj> this has been going on for yrs and it's not a big problem , but it's damn annoying after a while
[13:02] <geirha> might as well bite the dust and add a bot that'll DCC ubuntu ISOs
[13:02] <cfhowlett> I guess ubuntu is Italian for "warez here!"
[13:03] <enchilado> geirha: "bite the dust" or "bite the bullet"?
[13:03] <geirha> enchilado: uhm, whichever's most correct in this context (not a native english speaker)
[13:04] <geirha> Ubuntu.14.04.1.Desktop.Rel0aded.l1ve.iso
[13:04] <enchilado> geirha: to bite the dust is to die, and to bite the bullet is to make yourself do something you've been putting off
[13:05] <geirha> enchilado: Ah, thanks. Then I obviously meant the latter :)
[13:06] <BluesKaj> someone mentioned that some Italian magazine article either deliberately or mistakenly, not sure which, described ubuntu as a file sharing app or /serverchat
[13:07] <stevecam> hey, can somebody help me troubleshoot my network adapter, it's an RealTek 8111E, all of a sudden it has stopped working in ubuntu, i can see it in ifconfig but there is no ipaddress
[13:07] <mdoge> dhclient -v <iface>
[13:07] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, huh.  well that's nominally better than "ubuntu = NSA/kicks puppies/devil worship/communism" that so frequently passes for conventional wisdom
[13:08] <sacarlson> stevecam: also you will want to see if it's connected with iwconfig
[13:08] <stevecam> mdoge, thank you, and reason why it's not happening automatically by any chance?
[13:08] <PKHaxorz> cfhowlett, I thought that was conventional wisdom about windows?
[13:09] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett, well,  what I just posted is what I heard here a few yrs back
[13:09] <PKHaxorz> anyway, need a bit of help. I changed my host name, but after restarting it reverted back to its original name.
[13:09] <PKHaxorz> but ubuntu is complaining like something else changed it
[13:10] <PKHaxorz> being unable to resolve my _old_ host, being the one I had originally and currently, when using sudo.
[13:15] <mdoge> stevecam: no idea :-)
[13:18] <OerHeks> PKHaxorz, how did you change your hostname ? /etc/hostname + /etc/hosts ?
[13:18] <OerHeks> PKHaxorz, see http://askubuntu.com/a/87687
[13:19] <OerHeks> err post below that http://askubuntu.com/a/103939
[13:20] <stevecam> mdoge, just worked it out /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf had managed=false, but i wouldnt of realised without your suggestion
[13:21] <PKHaxorz> ty
[13:21] <mdoge> stevecam: np :-)
[13:26] <danielle86> hi guys. I'm having a problem with my ubuntu 14.04 LTS laptop, with nvidia drivers. every so often the display freezes. there doesnt seem to be any pattern to it and the computer keeps running fine. I can unfreeze it by switching to a different virtual terminal and then back again. anyone else had this problem?
[13:30] <danielle86> no one? :-)
[13:30] <Th3_ghost> Hello
[13:30] <Th3_ghost> Somebody using Ubuntu 12.04??
[13:31] <ObrienDave> many are. ask your question please
[13:31] <cfhowlett> Th3_ghost, only  a few million ...
[13:32] <ObrienDave> well, several thousand at least ;p
[13:33] <Th3_ghost> After some updates of Rhythmbox I have problems with Internet Radios
[13:33] <Th3_ghost> the app crashesh sometimes when try to change station from one to another
[13:35] <Th3_ghost> Why nobody's talking?
[13:35] <cfhowlett> Th3_ghost, no one knows the answer no one will talk.  simple.
[13:35] <usr13> Th3_ghost: Did you check the logs?
[13:36] <ObrienDave> !patience | Th3_ghost
[13:36] <Th3_ghost> where I can check log for more information?
[13:36] <usr13> Th3_ghost: The logs
[13:36] <usr13> /var/log/syslog  #And others as applicable....
[13:37] <Techedemic> you could also just type 'dmesg' and see whether anything dramatic happened
[13:38] <Techedemic> sometimes cryptic, but if something is wrong you'll spot it
[13:39] <Techedemic> let me rephrase:     likely very cryptic, but if something is very wrong you'll spot and at least you'll have something to search on
[13:39] <Th3_ghost> ok, thanks :)
[13:39] <usr13> ... and you can pipe to less and then search for keywords...
[13:39] <Th3_ghost> actually this is my first time when I join to IRC Channel
[13:40] <usr13> i.e. /error
[13:40] <usr13> i.e. /Error
[13:40] <PCatinean> I have a python program that outputs using the logger library to the console and I want to select out only the lines that have UPDATE in them
[13:40] <PCatinean> if I do | rgrep 'UPDATE" i get some wierd python errors for some reason
[13:40] <PCatinean> Any idea how I can properly filter the output?
[13:41] <usr13> Th3_ghost: Then I'm setting a bad example for you, (we should address our comments to particular NIC when not talking to everone).  So there :)
[13:41] <usr13> *NICK* not nic
[13:41] <usr13> NICK=user-name
[13:42] <CarlFK> PCatinean: its prolly trying to write unicode chars to a byte stream (or whatever the terms are.)   I would /j #python
[13:42] <PCatinean> thank you CarlFK !
[13:42] <batz0x> Hello all
[13:42] <usr13> Th3_ghost: To be clear:  What I was suggesting was for you to do:  demsg |less
[13:43] <batz0x> i'm using ubuntu 14.04 and trying to build custom kernel-3.18.0-rc4 from source, built it, put to /boot and changed grub.cfg, after rebooting i see the same bug - https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87001, is anybody knows how to fix it?
[13:44] <batz0x> i have no btrfs, but have the same bug :)
[13:44] <usr13> Th3_ghost: You could also search logs with less. Example:  less /var/log/syslog
[13:45] <usr13> Th3_ghost: SpaceBar to page down, (or PageDown/PageUp), and /search-word ...etc. etc.
[13:52] <senn558> anyone here got the CompTIA Security+ cert?

[13:54] <Wes-> Is there a way to have some kind of watchdog that freaks out if you pull out the USB key that is the backing store for a "live usb" ubuntu?
[13:55] <BluesKaj> Wes-, it's usually too late to remedy any damage if you pull the stick without enabling the safe-removal option first
[13:56] <cfhowlett> Wes- there *is* a watchdog.  pull the plug and your live session goes wonky.
[13:57] <Th3_ghost> usr13 Are you here?
[14:03] <jhns> hello
[14:04] <jhns> I just deleted network-manager on a server (via SSH), with the assumption that it's only needed for the desktop environment, which I don't use. Now I can't connect to the server anymore.
[14:04] <jhns> Any idea what happened?
[14:06] <BusinessMan> anyone on?
[14:06] <mdoge> no
[14:06] <mdoge> jhns: do you have physical access to the server?
[14:06] <BusinessMan> me neither
[14:06] <BusinessMan> yes
[14:06] <BusinessMan> gigawats
[14:08] <evanderv> Hi everyone I am running a 12.04.4 LTS server that I had to reboot because of adding more memory to it.  The server is a virtual running on HyperV and I actually have a bunch running on Hyper.  My problem was of the 3 linux servers that I had to shut down this one comes up to grub rescue.  I have gotten it now to go to the grub command line but it wont boot into the OS
[14:10] <BusinessMan> evanderv : have you tried turning it off... then back on?
[14:10] <BusinessMan> XD
[14:10] <evanderv> ;)
[14:11] <usc911> hey guys, anyone know where to get network manager for 10.10 from? someone seems to have removed it and I cant find the download
[14:12] <daftykins> evanderv: tried grabbing the 12.04.5 liveCD and booting it in that VM, then mounting the disk to have a look around?
[14:12] <evanderv> I did mount it
[14:12] <evanderv> And I was able to mount it
[14:13] <BusinessMan> usc911 have you tried turning your computer off... then back on?
[14:13] <usc911> BusinessMan: yep
[14:14] <BusinessMan> ok.. then im stumped XD
[14:14] <SchrodingersScat> !10.10
[14:18] <daftykins> BusinessMan: stop telling people to power cycle please, it's idiotic
[14:18] <jhns> mdoge: no
[14:18] <jhns> mdoge: Is network manager essential in ubuntu?
[14:18] <BusinessMan> jhns Yes it is necessary you also need a gigawat minimum
[14:18] <afidegnum> hello good morning, pls I am looking for the application that will restore the boot record.  I initially installed ubuntu with windows boot, but later I installed debian aside ubuntu which accidentally removed the windows boot.
[14:18] <orangeberry> a
[14:18] <BusinessMan> afidegnum, simply restart your computer and youll be all set
[14:18] <jhns> BusinessMan: gigawat minimum? what do you mean?
[14:18] <afidegnum> BusinessMan: no, it's not as simple as that
[14:18] <afidegnum> let me explain,
[14:18] <ObrienDave> he's being snarky. ignore

[14:20] <usr13> jhns: Network-Manager is not essential
[14:21] <skyfall> how can we see all the list of installed applications in ubuntu  ?
[14:21] <usr13> skyfall: There are a couple of ways
[14:21] <BusinessMan> skyfall simply restart your computer.. should take care if it
[14:21] <skyfall> usr13, suggest me please
[14:22] <usr13> skyfall: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/*list
[14:22] <cfhowlett> skyfall, dpkg -l
[14:22] <rypervenche> Can someone kick BusinessMan please?
[14:22] <jhns> usr13: but deleting it means the network connection gets closed?
[14:22] <BusinessMan> oh relax im joking
[14:22] <cfhowlett> !behelpful | BusinessMan
[14:23] <skyfall> cant we simple see using the ubuntu icon on the top left corner ?
[14:23] <BusinessMan> fine
[14:23] <usr13> skyfall: terminal
[14:24] <skyfall> usr13, ok !
[14:24] <cfhowlett> usr13, what command to get the "installed" list sorted by install date?
[14:25] <usr13> skyfall: Click that icon, type terminal, hit enter, type cd /var/lib/dpkg/info #hit Enter, type:  ls *list  #Hit Enter  etc...
[14:25] <usr13> cfhowlett: ls -tr
[14:25] <usr13> cfhowlett: (Latest would be last on list)
[14:25] <anonymous_> help
[14:26] <usr13> cfhowlett: (easiest way to see latest, work your way up in time.
[14:26] <cfhowlett> usr13, that lists all the folders in /home
[14:26] <anonymous_> someone help me ?
[14:26] <cfhowlett> !help | anonymous_,
[14:26] <skyfall> anonymous, just tell what is your problem.

[14:27] <anonymous_> he hack my router
[14:27] <anonymous_> he website is cms-bg.com
[14:27] <usr13> cfhowlett: ls -tr  #Lists all files and folders.  ls -ltr |grep ^d  #Lists folders only
[14:28] <anonymous_> i try to flood him but i can't
[14:28] <anonymous_> help me
[14:28] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, nope I'm not doing anything with that website
[14:28] <usr13> cfhowlett: ls -ltr |grep ^-  #Files only

[14:30] <BusinessMan> no racial slurs... no calling us crackers
[14:30] <mdoge> BusinessMan: o/
[14:30] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, reset your router then choose a harder password
[14:30] <skyfall> cfhowlett, by what this blocking of IP actually means ?
[14:30] <afidegnum> I don't know if you understand my situation, but here is the case:   initially, on my windows pc, I have later installed ubuntu, so the system runs on dual boot where I can select windows and ubuntu. later I have installed debian, which accidentally deleted the Windows boot. even though the HDD size allocation have space for the window files it can't boot, how can I fix the windows boot back?
[14:30] <usr13> !topic
[14:30] <skyfall> anonymous, just disconnect,reset pass
[14:30] <anonymous_> i reset 3 times but if i try to connect can't conncet
[14:31] <anonymous_> i try to connect to my machine sever with IP 212.xxx.xxx.xxx
[14:31] <anonymous_> no connect
[14:31] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, reset your router is the FIRST STEP
[14:31] <usr13> afidegnum: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[14:31] <anonymous_> i reset 3 time
[14:31] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, and changed your router password?

[14:31] <mdoge> skyfall, cfhowlett: you guys underestimate russian hackers strength. They have a top-elite 0day for his router which is a pre-auth remote code exec. The only way we can help anonymous_ is to tell him to change ISP.
[14:32] <anonymous_> ISP say he blocked your IP 212.xxx.xxx.xxx
[14:32] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, contact your ISP tech suppot
[14:32] <anonymous_> i connect he say wait 2 weeks
[14:32] <mdoge> how is this related to ubuntu anonymous_
[14:32] <mdoge> does your router run ubuntu lmao
[14:32] <anonymous_> i use VirtualBox
[14:33] <usr13> mdoge: GOOD POINT!
[14:33] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, oh, you definitely need a new isp.  and it's not an ubuntu issue.  ask ##linux
[14:33] <anonymous_> My server machine is at Win7
[14:33] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, NOT UBUNTU.  not our problem.  sorry.
[14:33] <anonymous_> okey last question
[14:33] <anonymous_> im with Anon OS
[14:33] <skyfall> anonymous, so your problem is not related with ubuntu on the first case
[14:33] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, the answer  to your question is install ubuntu
[14:33] <BusinessMan> i have a question.. what the hell is ubuntu.. lol
[14:33] <anonymous_> im with Anon OS
[14:34] <anonymous_> how can use a FLOOD ?
[14:34] <usr13> !ubuntu | BusinessMan
[14:34] <usc911> would anyone know the network mamager package I need for 10.10 on this page? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/n/network-manager/
[14:34] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, wrong channel.
[14:34] <usc911> im confused
[14:34] <BusinessMan> gotcha
[14:34] <anonymous_> what channel i go ?
[14:34] <ObrienDave> #away
[14:34] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, any channel but this.
[14:34] <skyfall> mdoge, what does flooding actually means ?
[14:34] <cfhowlett> ObrienDave, hey ...
[14:34] <mdoge> skyfall: you should read the bible for an answer to that
[14:34] <anonymous_> nobody support me ?
[14:35] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, install ubuntu you get ubuntu support.
[14:35] <ObrienDave> cfhowlett, i knew you were thinking about it ;P
[14:35] <anonymous_> im with Ubuntu
[14:35] <anonymous_> Anonymous OS
[14:35] <cfhowlett> anonymous_, no you are not.  go play elsewhere
[14:35] <BusinessMan> anonymos.. nope we no support you.. w want you go go bye bye
[14:35] <cfhowlett> !flavors | anonymous_
[14:35] <anonymous_> okey bye ...
[14:35] <anonymous_> tnx for no support
[14:35] <skyfall> mdoge, i didnt get you.
[14:35] <anonymous_> we are legion lol
[14:36] <anonymous_> i see what legion whe are

[14:37] <mdoge> skyfall: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah
[14:37] <cfhowlett> mdoge, not helpful.  stop.
[14:37] <BusinessMan> i have a question, may i please ask it?
[14:38] <ObrienDave> as long as it has to do with ubuntu SUPPORT, yes
[14:38] <skyfall> mdoge, i dont need to wiki for the exact meaning. i asked you what significance it has with the things told by the anonymous right before
[14:39] <ObrienDave> skyfall, flooding is the act of getting 1000's of requests to their server to get it to crash
[14:40] <ObrienDave> also known as a DoS attack
[14:40] <skyfall> ObrienDave, thank you. pardon my question as i was just eager to know what it actually meant !
[14:40] <ObrienDave> not a problem
[14:40] <usr13> flooding is copying and pasting multiple lines of text into an IRC channel
[14:40] <ObrienDave> that too
[14:41] <BusinessMan> sooooooo..
[14:43] <BusinessMan> how many gigawats do i need to run ubuntu on a catalytic converter
[14:44] <kazdax> my ubuntu is running really slow
[14:44] <daftykins> BusinessMan: either you start following the policy of this channel or you should leave.
[14:44] <usr13> When we consider making a comment, first think of what it looks like on the channel - is it relevant - is it information that needs to be shared with other Ubuntu users, if not, just stick to Ubuntu questions and Ubuntu answers.  Okay?
[14:45] <usr13> And: Please stop feeding the trolls.
[14:45] <kazdax> how do i check like a taskmanager for ubuntu ?
[14:45] <usr13> kazdax: ps aux
[14:45] <ObrienDave> Task Manager
[14:45] <usr13> kazdax: top
[14:45] <ObrienDave> htop
[14:45] <usr13> kazdax: Exactly what information do you need?
[14:46] <BusinessMan> can you kick me?
[14:46] <skyfall> what are the methods to recover when applications as well as the screen stop responding  ?
[14:46] <kazdax> I want to check what system resourses are being hogged down
[14:46] <kazdax> what why my system is running slow and sluggish
[14:47] <skyfall> kazdax, u can use system monitor to check that i hope !
[14:47] <BusinessMan> everyone: please follow the RULES. thank you its VERY important
[14:47] <usr13> kazdax: htop is good for that.
[14:48] <kraiskil> skyfall,  Ctrl+Alt+F1 should give you a text console
[14:49] <Tm_T> lasers`: BusinessMan

[14:51] <jvipa5g> Hi! When I unlock the screen, I window authentication (Authentication is required to change your own user data) appears. And this always happens. I I authenticate and continuing the message. Can someone help me? This happens to me since upgrading to Ubuntu 14.10
[14:53] <kazdax> okay i used to check my system is running sluggishly
[14:53] <kazdax> and i find nothing
[14:54] <kazdax> but its still running really slow
[14:54] <kazdax> like when i typed..it takes time to display a character for example
[14:54] <usr13> jvipa5g: If you give the exact wording, it would help
[14:55] <usr13> kazdax: You found nothing?  (Where did you look?)
[14:55] <compdoc> kazdax, you tried running top in a term window?
[14:55] <kazdax> top
[14:55] <kazdax> yes term window
[14:55] <usr13> kazdax: And do not use Enter for puncuation.
[14:55] <compdoc> whats eating cpu time?
[14:55] <usr13> kazdax: and RAM?
[14:56] <kazdax> for now all it shows is that maximum cpu usage is 4 percent and maximum mem usage is 14
[14:56] <usr13> kazdax: %MEM and #CPU
[14:56] <kazdax> the update maager is running perhaps that is slowing it down ?
[14:56] <usr13> kazdax: For what process?
[14:56] <kazdax> no wait ..i am looking at each ones cpu time
[14:56] <kazdax> let me see where i find total cpu being used
[14:56] <kazdax> and total memory
[14:57] <kazdax> okay its saying 488148 memory being used
[14:57] <kazdax> i dont know how to claculate that in mb
[14:57] <usr13> kazdax: could very well be update manager
[14:57] <usr13> kazdax: Close it and see.
[14:57] <usr13> kazdax: Or wait till it finishes.
[14:58] <deepubuntu> is codeblocks nightly bulid messing with ubuntu??
[14:58] <deepubuntu> 14.04
[14:58] <kazdax> okay how do i kill an application ?
[14:59] <usr13> kazdax: k pid in top, or kill pid in terminal or pkill process-name
