[14:46] <ponzellus> meet: np ;) try using it, it's really powerful, specially if you run stuff on different machines or want to check your programs remotely :)
[14:46] <meet>  how to install a downloaded .deb from command line
[14:46] <ponzellus> meet: sudo dpkg -i
[14:46] <meet> thanks :)
[14:46] <meet> wow this irc thing is really fast for help :) :D
[14:47] <meet> ponzellus: like sudo dpkg -i package.deb right?
[14:47] <TomyLobo> i installed libhiredis-dev and am including it with "#include <hiredis/adapters/libevent.h>". I get /usr/include/hiredis/adapters/libevent.h:1:19: fatal error: event.h: No such file or directory

[14:47] <ponzellus> meet: right
[14:48] <meet> ponzellus: does the terminal feel fast or does it really work fast

[14:48] <ActionParsnip> 14:46 < meet> thanks :)

[14:49] <xomrk> if $linia="linux is great"   how to have on output "linux is great" not Linux is great?
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> meet: yeah its pretty swet
[14:50] <MonkeyDust> xomrk  better try the channel #bash
[14:50] <meet> i mean the package installion was done way too quick then it is being done for other packages i just downloaded. i was using the normal double click or the software center. but when i tried through the terminal it felt quicker :D
[14:50] <anykey> nevermind found it. So, apparently, if there is no *.uploaded file, a crash report didnt get uploaded.
[14:50] <finklepants> Anyone know how to fix the wireless connectivity issues with atheros ar9485/ath9k version 3.2.0-35
[14:50] <ponzellus> meet: ah ok, yes, often times you get your work done faster using the terminal
[14:51] <meet> ponzellus: but how do you remember all those commands?
[14:51] <ponzellus> meet: by using them :) at the beginning it's hard probably, but after some time you just know them. and if not, there's google =) or irc
[14:52] <MonkeyDust> or duckduckgo
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> xomrk: echo $linia | tr 'l' 'L'
[14:52] <ponzellus> right, even better
[14:52] <meet> :)
[14:52] <nerdshank> Anyone
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> xomrk: replaces all instances of l with L
[14:53] <MonkeyDust> nerdshank  anyone what?
[14:53] <xomrk> still not have " before and
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> meet: as you use the terminal, you remember commands. I'm sure what you can probably do in Windows would impress a new user too
[14:54] <nerdshank> Need help with wireless connectivity of atheros AR9485/ ath9k driver
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> xomrk: echo $linia | tr '"' ' '
[14:55] <OerHeks> nerdshank, if you asked a question, it is not wise to change your name
[14:55] <Absolute0> Which file does ubuntu source on login when the default desktop manager startsup?
[14:55] <_porque> jrib, are you there?
[14:55] <Absolute0> is it .xprofile?
[14:55] <nerdshank> No one responded
[14:56] <MonkeyDust> nerdshank  then wait a bit longer, until someone enters who can help you
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> xomrk: or do you mean:   echo \"$linia\"
[14:56] <xomrk> yes
[14:56] <Zapp> nerdshank, What is the problem you are having with the driver?
[14:56] <xomrk> ty very much
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> xomrk: got there in the end :)
[14:57] <xomrk> yes yes now i have an the end and beginning
[14:57] <xomrk> ty
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> xomrk: the "s need escaping so they are seen as characters to output
[14:58] <nerdshank> Zapp: terrible speed signal drops hangups
[14:58] <xomrk> ok
[14:58] <orudie> which irc client does everyone use with ubuntu 12.04 ?
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> orudie: irssi and pidgin

[14:59] <orudie> isn't xchat a paid software ?
[14:59] <smashTheGrandpas> no
[14:59] <smashTheGrandpas> not paid
[15:00] <nerdshank> Need help with wireless connectivity of atheros AR9485/ ath9k driver
[15:00] <ponzellus> orudie: i think for windows they have some kind of fee
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: what is the issue?
[15:00] <ponzellus> for linux it's opensource
[15:01] <smashTheGrandpas> hang ups terrible signal sitting on top of router
[15:01] <smashTheGrandpas> drops
[15:01] <Zapp> nerdshank, OK, MIght want to ask for help with that instead of just driver trouble. Just a suggestion! :)
[15:02] <nerdshank> Help with what?
[15:02] <meet> how can i search for my music file on an ntfs partition from the overview?
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> meet: do you mean the dash when you say 'the overview'
[15:02] <nerdshank> You dont think its a driver issue?
[15:02] <Zapp> nerdshank,   "terrible speed signal drops hangups"
[15:02] <MonkeyDust> nerdshank  start from the beginning, what are you doing and what went wrong before you came here - in one line
[15:03] <meet> ActionParsnip: i am using the gome3 so whatever it's called :)
[15:03] <meet> gnome 3*
[15:03] <orudie> is xchat still managed / maintained ?
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> meet: all i can suggest is symlink the folder in ntfs to the music folder and it will be seen.
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> orudie: very much so
[15:04] <nerdshank> i did alot compat-network thingy, reloaded drivers, removed encryption
[15:05] <nerdshank> i found alot of people with this issue with tthis card.. idk if this is an unsolved bug issue or not
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: you haven't stated the issue yet
[15:05] <MonkeyDust> nerdshank  what are you trying to accomplish?
[15:06] <nerdshank> to get my full connectivity back... card is only opeteation at 60% signal sitting next to router, major signal drops
[15:07] <nerdshank> and then it bugs out a freezes
[15:07] <nerdshank> whole pc
[15:08] <nerdshank> im running 12.04 btw
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: try:    echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf > /dev/null
[15:10] <nerdshank> seems to of made it worse lol
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: did you reboot to test?
[15:11] <nerdshank> reboot or restart networking?
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: how could it have made things worse when the option hasn't even been applied yet?
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: reboot the PC is easier
[15:13] <nerdshank> dont ask my signal is fluxing pretty wildly
[15:13] <nerdshank> kk rebooting
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: are there lots of wifis on the same channel?
[15:13] <spaceneedle> I'm wondering if I should change swappiness on my 2gb memory dual core laptop. Does it really  make a difference?
[15:14] <nerdshank> no, this is ubuntu 12.04 thing im pretty sure worked alot better in 11, make kernal issues idk, and works just fine in windows
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> spaceneedle: I set mine to about 3 but all I do is chat and browse
[15:15] <nerdshank> im pissed cuz i use linux alot and just ordered new pc come to see it has this card too
[15:17] <spaceneedle> Has anybody tried JFS --instead of EXT4--for Ubuntu 12.04?
[15:18] <nerdshank> so far so good
[15:18] <nerdshank> nope still fluxing
[15:18] <nerdshank> really annyong
[15:19] <nerdshank> ActionParsnip,: think this maybe an unresolved bug issue
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: are there many networks on the same channel?
[15:20] <nerdshank> hmm good question
[15:20] <nerdshank> i think maybe only 2-3
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: sudo iwlist scan | egrep -i 'ssid|channel'
[15:21] <nerdshank> AceFace,  2
[15:21] <nerdshank> ActionParsnip,: 2
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: thats ok
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: how close is the router to the antennae
[15:25] <nerdshank> atm 2 feet, no more than 10 LOS/ internal antenna
[15:26] <dcope> anyone know why my TV (HDMI) would have ubuntu thinking it is 30 inches bigger?
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: did you try disabling ipv6 using the boot option:  ipv6.disable=1
[15:27] <nerdshank> have not
[15:27] <BluesKaj> dcope, which graphics card and driver ?
[15:27] <dcope> BluesKaj: i'm just using onboard with an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
[15:27] <nerdshank> put into grub?
[15:27] <dcope> i googled around and found people with similar problems but no solution
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: yes, next to:   quiet splash
[15:30] <phunyguy> So I am having an issue with this little mini PC from Lenovo.  Seems to have a pretty standard set of hardware, intel chipset, intel gigabit, etc, but for whatever reason on the install of Ubuntu, networkmanager won't see the adapter and connect to the wire.
[15:30] <nerdshank> ActionParsnip, so it will look like "quite splash nomodset" "ipv6.disable=1"    - i need the nomodset in there too
[15:31] <nerdshank> or same quotes
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> nerdshank: put the boot option in the same quotes

[15:36] <zex> @Action let me PM you
[15:37] <bean__> zex: typically its bad form to pm people here.
[15:37] <zex> Sorry I have not used nautilus before
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> zex: its the default file browser in ubuntu
[15:38] <zex> the network share is //freenas.local/share
[15:38] <Guest63268> ActionParsnip, did solve the signal issue but speed and responsiveness are alot better
[15:38] <Guest63268> didnt*
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Guest63268: dang
[15:38] <Guest63268> alot better than it was tho
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> zex: what does it use to share?
[15:38] <zex> yes in nautilus is does mount
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Guest63268: that's colol
[15:39] <zex> but how do I point Plex to that share?
[15:39] <zex> as in /mnt there is nothing
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> zex: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[15:40] <zex> Ubuntu 12.10 \n \l
[15:40] <iceroot> how to find all installed packages from a specific repo/ppa? something like "dpkg -l" and look on that list for every package from the repo "foobar"
[15:40] <Guest63268> thanks for the hand ActionParsnip
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> zex: look in /run/user/gvfs   if memory serves
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> Guest63268: I try
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> zex: change user for your username
[15:40] <defer_> Can i share my HDD to LAN is there any guide for that?
[15:40] <caiotarifa> http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/2976/ubootvsftpd.jpg
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> defer_: you can share the partition, not the drive
[15:41] <defer_> How can i do that? With samba maybe?
[15:41] <zex> sorry on call quickly. brb
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> defer_: yes, you'd share the mount point with samba, if it is ntfs then you wil probably get isues
[15:43] <subdesign> love ubuntu. installing on a new machine, doesnt recognize LAN, but found wifi, and now installs smoothly :)
[15:45] <defer_> I got new SSD so i will convert my netbook to network hard drive :) Because the ssd is only 64GB
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> defer_: thats plenty, ubuntu only needs about 6Gb
[15:47] <defer_> Yes but i need network drive for videos
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> defer_: totally, file servers make low storage drives a possibility :)

[15:59] <anathema_> hi guys, i have a new laptop with win8 installed. whats are the steps in order to boot and install dual boot with 12.10? I must disable uefi?
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> anathema_: you will need to resize your NTFS to make space for ubuntu

[16:02] <krz> ActionParsnip: they don't match........
[16:02] <krz> but it completed 100%
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> krz: that's why you are getting issues then, the data is corrupted
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> krz: doesn't matter, data can get damaged in transit
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> krz: thats why MD5 testing is importnat

[16:04] <krz> ActionParsnip: the md5 don't match though. so should i redownload?
[16:05] <ActionParsnip> krz: i suggest you redownload the ISO using torrents if possible. The torrent protocol adds extra data checking
[16:05] <phunyguy> I figured out my adapter issue I think.... I reset the BIOS.  May need a bios update if it does it ahain.
[16:05] <phunyguy> again*

[16:25] <harushimo> how would I get that package?
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> !find sdl
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> harushimo: yes
[16:26] <harushimo> what's the actual command? sudo apt-get install sdl?
[16:26] <bluegoon> Hi guys
[16:26] <TheGrey> o/ Can I ask something?......I've been running ubuntu and intermittently I have no connection with my mouse and keyboard...How can I find out a solution or bug report?
[16:26] <bluegoon> I cant type the 'hash' and 'at' symbols
[16:27] <FlowRiser> TheGrey, are they both on usb ?
[16:27] <ezio> TheGrey, you have to sit down and have a long talk with them.  that's the only way to develop a connection with your mouse and keyboard.
[16:27] <NET||abuse> hi folks, was going to try StarTrekOnline and had some issues with it, anyone here play STO? I can't click on Options or Patch on the launcher window
[16:27] <ezio> you should tell them about the dangers of drugs and strangers, too
[16:27] <TheGrey> FlowRiser: yes they're both on usb
[16:28] <FlowRiser> TheGrey, can you find them by running lsusb ?
[16:28] <NET||abuse> I'm using GC_DONT_GC=1  flags on the launcher for wine.
[16:28] <NET||abuse> i've install ie8 and vcrun 2008
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> harushimo: install the libsdl1.2-dev  package and you'll get it
[16:28] <MonkeyDust> NET||abuse  ask in #winehq
[16:28] <ezio> TheGrey, how are you doing anything without a mouse and keyboard?
[16:28] <NET||abuse> hmm, ok
[16:28] <NET||abuse> didn't know about that channel :)
[16:28] <harushimo> ActionParsnip: thank you
[16:28] <FlowRiser> ezio, good point O.o
[16:28] <NET||abuse> MonkeyDust: thanks for the pointer
[16:28] <TheGrey> FlowrRiser: Yes, they are both Razer USA, Ltd.
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> NET||abuse: did you check the appdb?
[16:28] <TheGrey> ezio: this is me after a reboot
[16:29] <bluegoon> How do you type the AT sign on a UK keyboard?
[16:29] <arand> harushimo: Normally install the packages libsdl-image1.2 and/or libsdl-mixer1.2 if you just need the libraries, libsdl1.2-dev if you want the development files for compiling as well.
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> bluegoon: shift + seconds key on right on the middle row
[16:29] <ezio> TheGrey, huh?  how are you typing anything
[16:29] <ezio> into linux
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> bluegoon: not counting the enter key
[16:30] <FlowRiser> TheGrey, Razer ?  oh, damn... they have all sorts of weird functions; tried searching the developers website for linux drivers ?
[16:30] <harushimo> arand: I need the development one too
[16:30] <TheGrey> ezio: This is a reboot...there is no problem atm. It happens intermittently. I'm looking for a solution
[16:30] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip: yeh i didn, didn't see my issue, but generally they just said you probably need to try GV_DONT_GV=1 and have vcrun2008 and IE8 through winetricks
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> bluegoon: http://www.goodtyping.com/teclatUKok.png   image searching is your friend
[16:30] <harushimo> arand: pygame requires it
[16:30] <TheGrey> FlowrRiser; cheers will do!
[16:30] <arand> harushimo: Then just the -dev package (as ActionParsnip said)
[16:30] <ezio> TheGrey, ah ... intermittently ... are you sure the os isn't frozen solid?
[16:30] <ezio> TheGrey, when this happens have you tried ctrl+alt+f1
[16:31] <harushimo> arand: I am. I'll install the other two packages what you said
[16:31] <TheGrey> ezio: right cheers
[16:32] <ezio>  try that ... see if you get a terminal
[16:32] <ezio> if you do then you can just reboot your dm by /etc/init.d/ldm restart
[16:33] <ezio> if you have the standard install
[16:33] <arand> harushimo: Hmm, it might be that you want libsdl-image1.2-dev and libsdl-mixer1.2-dev separately as well, yeah (I've no experience with pygame though).
[16:33] <Bouib> hello$
[16:34] <harushimo> arand: that's okay. I'll figure it out but you gave me direction on the problem

[16:42] <phunyguy> Doh, So I reinstalled this OS with the network interface issues, and now I have another problem.  I remember doing this before as well but can't remember what I did. I installed Ubuntu 12.10 from scratch but it won't boot. After going back into the LiveUSB, it shows the partitions as an EFI setup... how do I make this work?
[16:43] <arand> genteor: There's mumble or empathy(jabber/jingle).

[16:44] <Rallias> How do I disable that happening with my wireless mouse's battery?
[16:45] <littlebearz> Rallias: um. usually it's usb, lsusb i think
[16:45] <jrib> xomrk: what are you actually trying to accomplish?    And as someone else mentioned, #bash may be more appropriate if you are looking for general scripting help
[16:45] <Rallias> littlebearz, it's a bluetooth mouse.

[16:47] <bean_work> Hirak: What is your problem
[16:47] <Hirak> not sure whether I am asking the question in the correct forum
[16:47] <Guest1657> does anyone know when did ubuntu start to use grub 2?

[16:47] <Hirak> I have a problem regarding the kickstart files
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> xomrk:  echo ${example:10:${#example} - 20}
[16:48] <bean_work> Hirak: ok, what is the problem
[16:48] <MonkeyDust> Guest1657  9.10
[16:48] <Hirak> the problem is that ubuntu desktop is not getting displayed
[16:48] <phunyguy> doh, nevermind, I figured it out, it was booting the LiveUSB in UEFI mode by default, so Ubuntu installed it that way, but the HDD boots Legacy.
[16:48] <Hirak> I need a kickstart file to get the ubuntu installed with desktop
[16:48] <igor_> anyone know how to install video drivers with 3d acceleration?
[16:48] <kevingutt> Hello all
[16:49] <zex> Hi guys I need soem help please. How can I get a permanent share up between my Ubuntu and freenas server? I have tried fstab, but that is not helping me at all.

[16:49] <igor_> nvidia
[16:49] <bean_work> Hirak: okay, but what is the actual problem
[16:49] <Hirak> the desktop package is not getting installed
[16:49] <Hirak> I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor
[16:49] <Hirak> no desktop
[16:49] <bean_work> Hirak: that sounds like a problem unrelated to the desktop package not getting installed.
[16:50] <Guest1657> is there any channel related to grub?
[16:50] <kevingutt> Hey guys, on 12.10 my battery is completely wrong.
[16:50] <Hirak> yes I am not saying something is wrong with the package
[16:50] <kevingutt> the battery charges, but the indicator isn't right.
[16:50] <Hirak> but I need help with creating the proper kickstart file
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> Hirak: what GPU do you use?
[16:50] <arand> Guest1657: There's #grub, but if the problem is ubuntu-related, that's good for this channel as well.
[16:51] <Hirak> what is GPU?
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> Hirak: the video chip
[16:51] <Hirak> ok

[16:58] <Hirak> bean_work
[16:58] <Hirak> are u there?
[16:59] <bean_work> yes
[16:59] <bean_work> one moment please.
[16:59] <Hirak> ok
[16:59] <Hirak> thanks
[16:59] <zlatan> Abhijit, remove hardware - are you kidding, its my graphical card on laptop :p
[16:59] <rikimaru90> Hey guys, does anyone here use spotify for Linux here?
[17:00] <bean_work> oh, Hirak, i've never done that with actual kickstart scripts -- just debian-installer
[17:00] <Hirak> ohhh
[17:00] <Hirak> thats sad
[17:00] <Hirak> but any idea
[17:00] <bean_work> no idea
[17:00] <Hirak> ok
[17:00] <Hirak> can you please guide to a good forum
[17:00] <Hirak> ?
[17:01] <Abhijit> zlatan, then may be install the drivers?
[17:01] <bean_work> Hirak: can't say that I can... like I said, i've never done kickstart
[17:01] <igor_> anyone know how to install video drivers with 3d acceleration?
[17:01] <Hirak> ok
[17:02] <zex> Hi guys I need soem help please. How can I get a permanent share up between my Ubuntu and freenas server? I have tried fstab, but that is not helping me at all. I can connect to the share via Nautilus, but I can't seem to find a way to point Plex to that share. PLease can I get some direction please? I am running 12.10
[17:02] <littlebearz> igor_: find the make of you're video driver, goto software manager and download it
[17:02] <zlatan> Abhijit, I installed already flgrx and it didn't help, and after that fglrx-updates and it still is there... the system is working okay, I just want to get rid of that annoying windows
[17:02] <Abhijit> igor_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AcceleratedX
[17:02] <Abhijit> zlatan, hmm. no idea.
[17:02] <littlebearz> zex: use UNC pathways ie \\servername\folder
[17:02] <rikimaru90> Is there a way to remove Linux Mint and come back to Ubuntu 12.04, without losing all my stuff again?
[17:03] <littlebearz> rikimaru90: copy you're /home
[17:03] <Abhijit> rikimaru90, you just need to delete and/or format mint partition from ubuntu
[17:03] <zex> Sorry I am not following
[17:03] <Abhijit> rikimaru90, if you have important data inside mint partition you need to back it up first.
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> rikimaru90: use your backups to restore data
[17:04] <rikimaru90> Okay what steps do I need to take after backing up my home folder? How will I safely remove Mint and replace it with Ubuntu?
[17:04] <Abhijit> rikimaru90, you just need to delete and/or format mint partition from ubuntu
[17:05] <Abhijit> after taking the backup that is.
[17:05] <rikimaru90> Oh I see, so do it from the live USB in Gparted?
[17:05] <Abhijit> no
[17:05] <Abhijit> from the currently installed working running ubuntu
[17:06] <Abhijit> live media is not necessary. its optional.
[17:06] <rikimaru90> Abhijit: Oh no  I no longer have ubuntu installed, I replaced it for Mint. But I'm not happy with it.
[17:06] <Abhijit> :-s
[17:07] <zex> is there a support engineer I can chat ti in PM?
[17:07] <Abhijit> rikimaru90, you said you want to delete mint and come back to ubuntu
[17:07] <rikimaru90> Abhijit: Yeah, by that I mean reinstall ubuntu, sorry for not being clear.
[17:07] <Abhijit> rikimaru90, if you want to replace mint with ubuntu then first take backup and then follow regular ubuntu installation instructions and just delete mint partitions while installing ubuntu
[17:08] <kode_> when i try to run cheese in ubuntu 12.04 i get:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1534776/
[17:08] <ActionParsnip> zex: find out how the NAS mounts the share, you can then add that to fstab, or mount using nautilus then cat /etc/mtab
[17:08] <kode_> antone knows whats going on there
[17:08] <Abhijit> zex, if you have bought the support from canonical then this is not the place to get that support. this is community support channel. if you have not bought any support just ask your questions here, be patient or ask with details on askubuntu.com for better support
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> kode_: are you accessing it over SSH?
[17:09] <zex> ok I cll ask again Hi guys I need soem help please. How can I get a permanent share up between my Ubuntu and freenas server? I have tried fstab, but that is not helping me at all. I can connect to the share via Nautilus, but I can't seem to find a way to point Plex to that share. PLease can I get some direction please? I am running 12.10
[17:09] <kode_> ActionParsnip: no
[17:09] <zex> off to the shop will come back
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> kode_: tried guvcview?
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> zex: find out how the NAS mounts the share, you can then add that to fstab, or mount using nautilus then cat /etc/mtab
[17:11] <kode_> ActionParsnip: actually when i was using cheese with ubuntu 10.10 it was working fine and then i upgraded to 12.04 and after that this is happening.. i havent tried guvcview
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> kode_: did you upgrade to the releases in between?
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> kode_: or direct from maverick to precise
[17:12] <kode_> direct from maverick to precise
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> kode_: thats why
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> kode_: you have leapfrogged releases which is not supported as you have not gone from LTS to LTS
[17:13] <kode_> ActionParsnip: is there no way to get it to work in precise??
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> kode_: reinstall precise
[17:13] <kode_> ActionParsnip:  without reinstalling??
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> kode_: you havent followed correct upgrading procedure. I anticipate you will have issues
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> !rootirc | noob
[17:16] <kode_> ActionParsnip: ok.. thanks..
[17:16] <Guest97701> ok so i fresh minimal install of ubuntu12.10 now i have no unity no gnome install i want to install mate desktop?
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> Guest97701: you will need the mate ppa. If you get issues with mate itself, then you will not be supported here
[17:18] <Guest97701> ActionParsnip: all i need to know tht its not important to install unity or gnome to get mate desktop?
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> Guest97701: you don't need to have unity installed to use mate
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> Guest97701: you will use gnome
[17:21] <Guest97701> ActionParsnip: i want to only install mate desktop not gnome and unity so kinda confused  hope only install mate desktop not create any problem
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Guest97701: mate is a fork of gnome, so it will use gnome stuff from the official repos mixed with the stuff from the ppa
[17:22] <Guest97701> ActionParsnip: so it means i have to install gnome first to use mate?
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> Guest97701: no, just add the ppa then install mate, it will install what is needed
[17:23] <Kion1> How do I uninstall Ubuntu from a dual boot computer?
[17:23] <Guest97701> ActionParsnip: ok thanx a lot
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: how did you install Ubuntu
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> Guest97701: no worries
[17:24] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: No, Uninstall from a dual boot working system
[17:24] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: It is for a friend, that will update his computer and will give the old to somebody
[17:25] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: yes, how did you install ubuntu? there are 2 ways to install it, so there are 2 removal methods...
[17:25] <dangersalad> anybody here started playing with the ubuntu phone sdk
[17:25] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: sorry, did not read correctly, my bad, I am not shure, I guess he had windows preinstalled and booted with a cd...
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: ok, so in Ubuntu if you run:  sudo fdisk -l    do you see Linux partitions and NTFS partitions?
[17:26] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: yes, he has a windows partition and a linux partition
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: then boot to windows and delete the Linux partitions. You will need to use a Windows CD to reinstate the boot loader
[17:27] <dangersalad> I am trying to get the XmlListModel from the demo working and it is not pulling data
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: you can then make a partition of the freed space for user data storage etc
[17:28] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: Yes my first thought was to format the linux partition and use it from windows, my only obscure area is how to fix the boot loader
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: you'll need the windows CD, or supergrub (may work)
[17:29] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: I thought of modifying grub to automaticlly choose windows with time =0, but I know this is not elegant but rather rudimentary
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: when you delete the ubuntu parftitions, all the config files will go too
[17:30] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: I see, including groob...
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: if you have a windows CD, you can put the boot loader back on the mbr, the ##windows can help you with that
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: grub will be on the mbr still, but there is no /boot partition to look at etc, so it will just sit and expect you to boot it manualy by typing the boot command
[17:31] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: Ok thanks!   so step 1 , format the ext4 partition, step 2 reinstall windows boot loader with their disk
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> commands*
[17:32] <hje841> How do you deploy a gSOAP webservice written as a stand alone server in C++?
[17:33] <Kion1> ActionParsnip: Thanks!
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Kion1: np :)
[17:35] <dangersalad> Has anyone successfully used the XmlListModel in the Ubuntu Phone SDK? I cannot get it to retrieve data
[17:35] <biglinux> hello
[17:35] <Kion1> biglinux: hello
[17:35] <DJones> dangersalad: Probably best asking in #ubuntu-phone for that
[17:35] <dangersalad> ah ha
[17:35] <dangersalad> thanks

[17:47] <krz> ActionParsnip: where is the torrent file for ubuntu 12.4 64bit?
[17:47] <krz> 12.10 i mean ActionParsnip
[17:47] <MonkeyDust> zebaszp  use cat /etc/fstab|pastebinit and paster the url here
[17:47] <CommunistJamie> Does anyone know how to install open office 3.4.1?

[17:47] <MonkeyDust> CommunistJamie  the repos contain libreoffice
[17:47] <jrib> CommunistJamie: what ubuntu version are you using?
[17:48] <tor_> Want to install drivers from GeForce..
[17:48] <CommunistJamie> lubuntu 12.10
[17:48] <jrib> !nvidia | tor_
[17:48] <CommunistJamie> I have downloaded the deb.tar.gz for open office from the vendor
[17:48] <krz> MonkeyDust: http://www.ubuntu.com/download where?
[17:48] <jrib> tor_: follow the guide on the wiki.  Ideally, you would use the drivers from the repositories through "Additional Drivers" or "Hardware Drivers" (I forget the exact name)
[17:48] <zex> can you guys get to : http://pastebin.com/D0W3DF3H
[17:48] <jrib> CommunistJamie: you're aware of libreoffice?
[17:48] <Kion1> tor_: if on a tty you type sudo service lightdm stop it should be enough to let you install nvidia drivers
[17:49] <subdesign> trying to run sudo modprobe alx, i get module alx not found . any idea?
[17:49] <CommunistJamie> Not particularly.
[17:49] <MonkeyDust> krz  choose the one you want, then scroll down to alternative

[17:49] <krz> MonkeyDust: whats the diff between i386 and and 64?
[17:50] <jrib> CommunistJamie: libreoffice is a fork of openoffice.  Libreoffice is also available through ubuntu's repositories and you might even already have it
[17:50] <zex> can you get to http://pastebin.com/D0W3DF3H

[18:09] <alo21> ActionParsnip, sorry, but I do not understand

[18:11] <z_Chanshark> ActionParsnip:  is his display not working?

[18:14] <z_Chanshark> ActionParsnip:  can you tell me the difference between mint and ubuntu?
[18:15] <z_Chanshark> more importainly which accepts more wireless usb adapters
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> z_Chanshark: support community, default applications, some sources for packages
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> z_Chanshark: the driver base and kernel are pretty much identical
[18:15] <igor_> can someone help?
[18:15] <Benkinooby> ActionParsnip: i don't know if it is the driver - it is merely a symptom that i notice before my whole systems goes down
[18:15] <z_Chanshark> igor_:  what do you need hlep with
[18:16] <LucidGuy> If you were in charge of deploying an office environment consisting of all Linux workstations.  What distro would you deploy?  The organization is primarily research/science.
[18:16] <histo> z_Chanshark: There maybe additional firmware for wireless cards nonfree provided with mint although I'm not 100% on that.
[18:16] <MonkeyDust> z_Chanshark  there are plenty reviews, here's one http://www.datamation.com/open-source/linux-mint-vs.-ubuntu-the-best-option-1.html
[18:16] <z_Chanshark> because my wireless usb adapter does not work with mint :/
[18:17] <histo> igor_: what method are you using to try and install them. If you could provide more details it would help
[18:17] <histo> !details | igor_
[18:17] <z_Chanshark> so i was thinking about switching over to ubuntu
[18:17] <igor_> i want to install proprietary drivers for my video card

[18:18] <ActionParsnip> z_Chanshark: try it is all I can say
[18:18] <histo> igor_: What type of video card do you have?
[18:18] <igor_> tried leaving x server and then i could not do anything
[18:18] <igor_> nvidia
[18:18] <histo> ActionParsnip: doesn't mint provide stuff like broadcom firmware etc..
[18:19] <alo21> ActionParsnip, the hash is correct
[18:19] <histo> igor_: can you lspci | grep VGA   at a terminal or console.   and tell us what chipset it is
[18:20] <igor_> geforce 450 GTS
[18:21] <Benkinooby> can some1 have a look at my dmesg and tell my what made my system to freeze? it's quite long, and ends in call traces :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/1534938/
[18:21] <histo> igor_: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

I am not having much joy getting the Ubuntu and plex to see the freenas share. PLease help
[18:21] <histo> zex: what type of share is it?
[18:22] <igor_> is that proprietary?
[18:22] <zex> it is a afs ( apple share
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> histo: I think so
[18:22] <igor_> done
[18:22] <histo> Benkinooby: I would be suspicious of line 1099
[18:23] <igor_> how do i know if i'm running proprietary drivers
[18:23] <histo> Benkinooby: actually nvm ignore that
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> igor_: sudo lshw -C display | grep driver     if it says 'nvidia' it is proprietary
[18:23] <Benkinooby> histo: yes - but to me it looks like the trouble started ealrier, at line 710
[18:24] <histo> igor_: yes
[18:24] <histo> igor_: when you boot into X or your desktop opoen a terminal and glxinfo | grep render
[18:24] <histo> Benkinooby: yeah something is freezing up
[18:25] <Benkinooby> histo: that's waht i figured too XD
[18:25] <histo> Benkinooby: iwconfig is freaking out for some reason
[18:25] <igor_> will that tell me if i have 3d accelleration too.
[18:26] <orbitwhite> igor_, if its not laptop with optimus be sure u have one until propietary driver is loaded
[18:26] <Benkinooby> histo: line 706
[18:26] <Benkinooby> histo: now i wonder - iwconfig or soft lock up - which one is the trouble maker
[18:27] <histo> Benkinooby: I think iwconfig is the problem looking at that but i'm no exper
[18:27] <igor_> i'm trying to get play on linux setup properly and it said that i need to have 3d accelleration enabled.  and i want to make sure it is.
[18:27] <histo> igor_: if you sudo apt-get install mesa-utils  you can use the glxinfo command and see
[18:28] <histo> igor_: glxinfo | grep render   will let you know if you have direct rendering enabled or not
[18:28] <zex> not sure I understand the reason for these irc channels ??

[18:29] <zex> so no one can help me mount a network share?
[18:29] <DWSR> Anyone have a link for a quick and dirty tutorial on configuring x?
[18:29] <orbitwhite> if no one answers u just wait until someone will be able to help u, same people as u come here to help others
[18:29] <histo> igor_: or you could use the command /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p
[18:29] <DWSR> Or just a utility to do it interactively/
[18:30] <histo> igor_: then you are good
[18:30] <igor_> cool. thanks
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> zex: what does the nas use to share?

[18:30] <adam_8606> hi, where is the gconf entry to undo the "Do not show this message again" when it said you have connected to "wireless network"

[18:32] <Dripa> jacklk: it doesnt
[18:32] <Benkinooby> histo: ok, my lockups seem to be kernel bugs (as if the big fast BUG note in dmesg would be there for fun :P ). maybe i'll upgrade to 12.10 (i am 12.04 now) or try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1685278

[18:34] <zex> I do not have 15 TB on my ubunti server
[18:34] <histo> zex: you need to get the ubuntu machine to see the content first outside of plex.  Test one thing at a time.
[18:34] <cleardown> should i disable
[18:35] <orbitwhite> Benkinooby, which card u have?
[18:35] <zex> yes that is what I am trying histo
[18:35] <orbitwhite> like `lspci` should help to determine for example
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> cleardown: yes, the webupd8 ppa has the newer version with the fix
[18:35] <cleardown> will update manager get it
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> cleardown: yes if you have the ppa

[18:37] <gatorgar79> anyone here good with hardware in ubuntu i need to find a document scanner that works
[18:37] <histo> zex: I'm not really familiar with "apple shares" so you'll have to wait for someone that is. or mount the samba share.
[18:37] <gatorgar79> send me an instant message
[18:37] <histo> zex: can you see the samba share.
[18:37] <Benkinooby> orbitwhite: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)

[18:38] <DWSR> ActionParsnip: AMD ES1000.
[18:38] <orbitwhite> Benkinooby, never touched broadcom ones but i assume it needs propietary firmware to work that makes things worse
[18:38] <DWSR> histo: Doesn't FreeNAS support NFS shares?
[18:38] <DWSR> histo: Because that would probably be the easiest.
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> DWSR: tried:     sudo aticonfig --initial
[18:38] <zex> it does support NFS
[18:39] <blkadder> zex: go to a shell on the FreeNas server and type "mount" then pastebin the output.

However there is one small thing that doesn't get proxied, and I can't figure out how to make it proxy.  The flash plugin says that extra stuff needs to be downloaded, and i can run this action now, or close.  It never runs when I tell it to, it just times out.
[18:40] <DWSR> ActionParsnip: It's a Dell PowerEdge 2950. I wasn't aware that Ubuntu's base drivers were so poor that they don't support 6 year old hardware.
[18:41] <zex> http://pastebin.com/AD5TXcng
[18:41] <DWSR> ActionParsnip: I just need to change the refresh rate.
[18:41] <blkadder> zex: And what share are you trying to see?
[18:41] <orbitwhite> Benkinooby, this could also help, read it carefully it may contain keys to whats goint on http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#firmware
[18:42] <blkadder> The /mnt/FreeNas?
[18:42] <zex> yes
[18:42] <blkadder> Ok first that is exported as NFS.
[18:42] <histo> zex: what are you posting your fstab from Freenas
[18:42] <blkadder> So what is all of this stuff about Apple shares?
[18:42] <zex> yes
[18:42] <histo> zex: Why?
[18:43] <blkadder> I asked him to histo
[18:43] <histo> zex: there isn't a problem with freenas there is a problem with Ubuntu.
[18:43] <blkadder> I wanted to see how he had stuff exported.
[18:43] <zex> cause I have an apple Macbook?
[18:43] <zex> correct
[18:43] <blkadder> Right but your server is exporting NFS.
[18:43] <blkadder> Not AFP
[18:43] <histo> zex: so Ubuntu can see the share but plex cant
[18:43] <histo> blkadder: doesnt' matter
[18:43] <DWSR> zex: ls /mnt/FreeNas
[18:43] <DWSR> Does that give you back the contents of your share?
[18:44] <blkadder> histo: Depending on how he is trying to mount it it might.
[18:44] <zex> plex askes the location of the share
[18:44] <zex> ot location of the folder where you media is located
[18:44] <histo> zex: But am I right that Ubuntu can see the share and browse it
[18:44] <mbeierl> Using lubuntu 12.10 - I accidentally clicked on a notification where it said "don't show this message again."  Does anyone know how to get that back, or to reset the notification settings?
[18:44] <histo> ?
[18:45] <zex> yep if I use Nautilus
[18:45] <blkadder> zex: Is the issue that you can't see it on your Macbook or on Ubuntu?
[18:45] <DWSR> zex: You can either tell Plex the share name for Ubuntu remotely.
[18:45] <histo> blkadder: he can't see it in a program called plex
[18:45] <MonkeyDust> what's plex?
[18:45] <DWSR> zex: Or you can tell Plex the local folder it's located in (/mnt/FreeNas)
[18:45] <blkadder> But he can see it in the OS?
[18:45] <DWSR> MonkeyDust: plexapp.com
[18:45] <histo> zex: You need to mount the share on your ubuntu machine.
[18:45] <orbitwhite> D:
[18:45] <zex> I am tryung to see the share from ubuntu for plex . SHare is on my freenas
[18:45] <histo> zex: then just point plex at the mounted folder
[18:46] <DWSR> histo: Unless of course he's having permissions issues.
[18:46] <zex> where does ubuntu map the share to is I use nautilus/?
[18:46] <zex> I have looked under /mnt but it is nt there
[18:46] <DWSR> ActionParsnip: aticonfig --initial "no supported adapters detected"
[18:46] <histo> zex: it's in a folder under your home
[18:46] <blkadder> zex: Go to a shell on the Ubuntu server and do a "mount" and send me the output.
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> zex: look in /run
[18:47] <zex> http://pastebin.com/KPu71akc
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> zex: you will find a folder for your user and then a folder called gvfs
[18:47] <histo> zex: on ubuntu sudo mkdir /mnt/share  && sudo mount
[18:47] <histo> zex: hold on sorry line truncated
[18:48] <zex> omg
[18:48] <zex> one sec
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> zex: try:  sudo updatedb; locate gvfs   what is output?
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> zex: /run/user/arthur/gvfs    is ity there by any chance?
[18:50] <histo> zex: sudo mkdir /mnt/share && sudo mount //192.168.xxx.xxx/path
[18:50] <histo> zex: /mnt/share
[18:50] <histo> stupid keyboard
[18:50] <ShapeShifter499> hi again
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> histo: once it's mounted in gui, it goes into the folder in /run which can be used
[18:50] <ShapeShifter499> ubuntu 12 should run in virtual pc 7 right?
[18:50] <histo> ActionParsnip: I think it goes in a .gvfs folder in the users home I believe
[18:51] <histo> ActionParsnip: with some uuid numbering or somehting
[18:51] <zex> ok I can see the map : /run/user/arthur/gvfs/afp-volume:host=Freenas.local,user=anonymous,volume=Movies$
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> histo: not any more, look at the mount output
[18:51] <MonkeyDust> ShapeShifter499  you mean as a virtual machine in win7?
[18:51] <zex> but plex does nto see that
[18:51] <histo> ActionParsnip: When did they switch the way nautilus does it?
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> zex: could run:  ln -s /run/user/arthur/gvfs/afp-volume ~/NAS
[18:51] <histo> zex: just mount it manually like I instructed
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> histo: no idea
[18:51] <histo> zex: first unmount it
[18:52] <zex> histo let me try one sec please
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> zex: try the command, it should work
[18:53] <zex> let me try one sec
[18:53] <johndoe_> Hi. I've been using dhclient in a script to search for dhcp servers for some network surveillance. Now, dhclient was turned into an upstart script and I get complains using my script. How can I run a dhcp client on a specific interface and only on that interface at any time?
[18:53] <ShapeShifter499> I really want to use my old powerbook g4 /w powerpc for video streaming/media center, airplay, and a server but the tools for airplay and media only seem to work on mac os 10.5 and no where else, so I'd have to run ubuntu in the background with virtual pc 7 or qemu, which from research is slow on this comp
[18:53] <ShapeShifter499> MonkeyDust, no I mean the old vitual pc 7 for powerpc machines
[18:53] <zex> mount: can't find //<IP_ADDRESS>/Movies in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[18:54] <zex> also tied this mount: can't find //freenas.local/Movies in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[18:54] <histo> zex: sudo mount
[18:54] <MonkeyDust> ShapeShifter499  what do you mean by 'ubuntu in the background'? of what exactly?
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> zex: did the symlink work ok?
[18:55] <zex> the link is there
[18:55] <zex> yes and I can see the content
[18:55] <histo> ActionParsnip: he needs to learn how to mount it then he can put it in his fstab on the ubuntu box. rather than having to browse to it first in nautilus then openinjg plex
[18:55] <zex> but how do I add that folder to Plex? as the broswer interface does nto go past this position in link
[18:56] <user82> hi. my notebook all over sudden reports a wrong max capacity of the battery. how can i reset/fix this?
[18:56] <user82> battery out in reboot?
[18:57] <zex> I can oly get to : /run/user/arthur
[18:57] <ShapeShifter499> MonkeyDust, my setup would be Mac OS X 10.5 with xbmc + airserver for the media center and ubuntu 12 running in some virtualization (qemu, a older virtualbox version, or virtual pc 7) for the server tools
[18:57] <zex> can not see gvfs folder
[18:57] <histo> zex: sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/path/to/Movies /where/ever/you/want/to/mount
[18:57] <histo> zex: that would use NFS
[18:57] <zex> mount.nfs: mount point /home/arthur/HERE does not exist
[18:58] <blkadder> mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/FreeNas /mnt
[18:58] <zex> arthur@Mordor:/$ sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/path/to/Movies /home/arthur/HERE
[18:58] <Benkinooby> orbitwhite: ok
[18:58] <MonkeyDust> ShapeShifter499  yes, just run ubuntu as a virtual machine in mac os - or is that not what you mean?
[18:58] <zex> getting somewhere
[18:58] <ShapeShifter499> MonkeyDust, right now I'm installing Mac OS X 10.5 on this old powerbook g4, haven't looked into running ubuntu in virtual pc yet so I don't know if that would work
[18:58] <histo> zex: You're not understanding i'm merely explaining: mount -t nfs nameofcomputer:/directory_on_that_machine /directory_you_should_have_already_created
[18:59] <ubuntu-tester> user82: what capacity system reports?
[18:59] <zex> http://pastebin.com/XRrq3QRq
[18:59] <ShapeShifter499> MonkeyDust, from what I researched VirtualPC7 is the last version that works for powerpc systems and I'm not sure if ubuntu will work on it
[18:59] <blkadder> That is a FreeNAS server config issue.
[18:59] <histo> zex: is the share in /mnt/FreeNAS
[18:59] <user82> ubuntu-tester gnome energy monitor says: energy(design) 51.4Wh(correct) Capacity when fully charged: 134.2Wh(totally wring)
[19:00] <histo> zex: or is it /mnt/FreeNas/Movies
[19:00] <user82> so the percentage is totally wrong...the time left not
[19:00] <zex> in /mnt/FreeNas/Movies
[19:00] <ShapeShifter499> MonkeyDust, also Virtual PC 7 seems to be the fastest virtualization software I can use
[19:00] <MonkeyDust> ShapeShifter499  give it try and post your findings as a review
[19:00] <zex> I di d
[19:00] <zex> I did sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/FreeNas/Movies /mnt
[19:00] <zex> and it did nto bitch
[19:01] <blkadder> Then try mount 192.168.254:/mnt/FreeNas/Movies
[19:01] <histo> zex: now plex should be able to browse /mnt and see the content
[19:01] <zex> let me see
[19:01] <histo> blkadder: please
[19:01] <ShapeShifter499> MonkeyDust, ok, sure
[19:02] <zex> ffs when I browse to /mnt I soo nothing
[19:02] <zex> see nothing
[19:02] <zex> when i go cd /mnt I get -bash: cd: /mnt/: Permission denied
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> zex: i'd just mount it using GUI, then use the symlink :)
[19:02] <histo> ActionParsnip: then he needs to do that everytime before using plex.
[19:02] <blkadder> ls -al /mnt
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> histo: least there is a way to get it flying til the mount can be made
[19:03] <histo> I thought he wanted to do this in fstab anyways.... Maybe i'm confused. I just want him to mount it normally first
[19:03] <histo> zex: please type just "mount" in a terminal and pastebin the output.
[19:03] <zex> <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/FreeNas/Movies on /mnt type nfs (rw,addr=<IP_ADDRESS>)
[19:04] <zex> seems it is mounted... but now how do I point plex to that mount point?
[19:04] <telematika> alo
[19:04] <histo> zex: can you ls /mnt/  do you see any files?
[19:04] <upset> Even though I have changed all my default fonts, some text is being rendered in the ubuntu font.
[19:04] <zex> if i go to /mnt in plex vie firefox I do not get to see anything in the /mnt folder
[19:05] <upset> What can I do?
[19:05] <zex> ls: cannot open directory /mnt/: Permission denied
[19:05] <histo> zex: also can you please post the output of mount by itself so I can see how gvfs mounted the share.
[19:06] <zex> http://pastebin.com/AKZKntkh
[19:06] <zex> mount commin up one sec
[19:07] <zex> here is the mount
[19:07] <zex> http://pastebin.com/2YNECa1D
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> looks good
[19:07] <zex> ok so last thing to do it get the pleg media manager ( in firefox ) to see the /mnt
[19:08] <blkadder> ls -al /mnt
[19:08] <histo> zex: no you have to use sudo to get a directory listing currently?
[19:08] <histo> there is a permissionis issue please do blkadders command
[19:08] <zex> ye I had to use sudo
[19:09] <blkadder> And probably something like chmod 755 /mnt
[19:09] <El_Fantasma_> .
[19:09] <histo> zex: follow this page
[19:09] <histo> zex: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/ubuntu-linux-nfs-client-configuration-to-mount-nfs-share.html
[19:09] <El_Fantasma_> EL FANTASMA!
[19:10] <zex> let me chekc it out thanks guys!!!
[19:12] <histo> zex: also why wouldn't you put the plex media server on the freenas box.
[19:12] <zex> you can't :P
[19:12] <histo> zex: and then the clients on the other boxes.
[19:13] <histo> zex: do they even make a ubuntu app to browse your media then?
[19:13] <zex> nope :P hence the drive to see if I get the share to work
[19:14] <histo> zex: What are you going to use as a plex client?
[19:14] <zex> appletv
[19:14] <zex> from that link they suggest this sudo mount -o soft,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 <IP_ADDRESS>:/viveks /nfs
[19:14] <histo> ahh
[19:14] <zex> I get access denied by server while mounting <IP_ADDRESS>:/viveks
[19:14] <zex> I have one question
[19:15] <histo> zex: becuae /viveks is the directory yours is /mnt/FreeNas/Movies  remember
[19:15] <zex> I have a TV that is NDLA enabled
[19:15] <zex> will it be able to see the plex ?
[19:15] <histo> zex: then there are easier ways to do this.
[19:15] <raven> anyone who knows about xslt?
[19:15] <zex> server?
[19:15] <zex> please tel me
[19:15] <histo> zex: I don't know if plex does dlna or what protocal its using.
[19:15] <zex> I think it is
[19:15] <histo> zex: then yes
[19:16] <histo> zex: You have an issue understanding the mount command. Let me give you an example.
[19:17] <histo> zex: mount -o options,that,you,want ip.address.of.freenas:/path_to_share_on_freenas_box /directory_that_you_want_to_mount_to_must_exist
[19:18] <zex> got that
[19:18] <histo> zex: okay then why are you trying to type /vivek
[19:18] <histo> zex: does the /viveks folder exist on your freenas box?
[19:18] <zex> yuo gave mte the handy link : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/ubuntu-linux-nfs-client-configuration-to-mount-nfs-share.html
[19:19] <zex> there is a step
[19:19] <zex> under Task: Mount Shared Directory
[19:19] <histo> omfg
[19:19] <zex> and I think I am loosing my mind
[19:19] <histo> zex: You need to read litterally what I typed to you
[19:19] <histo> zex: it shows how the mount command works
[19:20] <zex> yes I now see my error.. dude I have een tryign to get thsi working sinse 8:0 am .. it is now 21:20 here
[19:20] <histo> zex: then take the examples on that page. *don't copy and paste them* adapt them to your situatioin
[19:21] <rich> hello?
[19:21] <histo> rich: hola
[19:22] <histo> zex: I would take a break then and come back to it.
[19:22] <rich> Hi there, I was looking for some help installing ubuntu on vm fusion, am I in the right place?
[19:22] <histo> zex: This is all due to a misunderstanding of how the mount command works.
[19:22] <histo> rich: what sort of problems are you having?
[19:23] <zex> lok guys I had it for one day. I am no expert hence soem of the problems
[19:23] <zex> thansk for the help
[19:23] <histo> zex: I would just read up on the mount commmand and understand that first
[19:24] <histo> zex: and what it does. Then you will see how silly this all is once you understand it.
[19:24] <zex> will do thanks guys
[19:24] <rich> I get most of the way through installing on vmfusion on a macbook, I notice a prompt of host smbus not installed, but it seems to continue to the point where you login. After I enter the password, it just says there is an error with the machine and shuts down..
[19:24] <histo> rich: what are you using to install an iso?
[19:25] <rethus> hi
[19:25] <rich> Vmfusion 5, I've tried 12.04/12.10 both 32 and 64 bit
[19:25] <meet> how to change the ubuntu splash screen?
[19:25] <meet> the one before the login screen
[19:25] <histo> rich: right how are you trying to install ubuntu what is your source
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> Meet: you mean before you log in?

[19:26] <rethus> problem, i must execute as root.
[19:26] <meet> ActionParsnip: yes
[19:26] <fidel_> hi - is there an option to configure what folders/location are shown in nautilus sidebar under 'computer'?
[19:26] <rethus> entry in /etc/sudoers and chmod 777 to script take no effect
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> Meet: look for Plymouth themes
[19:26] <rich> The source of the iso? Ubuntu's website. Not sure if that is what you mean?
[19:26] <fidel_> using nautilus: 3.4.2 here
[19:26] <rethus> any idea, how i could execute it without passwd-prompt?
[19:26] <Steve___> Hi. can i ask for help please?
[19:26] <histo> !md5 | rich
[19:26] <fidel_> !ask | Guest30151
[19:27] <meet> ActionParsnip: i tried that actually.. btw while apt-get update.. i m getting an error .. can you have a look at it?
[19:27] <Guest30151> How can i run play on linux as root?
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> Rethus: you will need to add an entry in: sudo visudo
[19:27] <Guest30151> Hm?
[19:27] <rethus> there is a entry ActionParsnip
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> Meet: sure, pastebin the text
[19:28] <rethus> suther ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/sonyLcdBrightness
[19:28] <MonkeyDust> Guest30151  #winehq
[19:28] <Guest30151> What is that?
[19:28] <meet> ActionParsnip: http://fpaste.org/3J8v/
[19:29] <orbitwhite> rethus, u can specify certain commands or scenarios in there to be executed without auth over sudo, just google about "debian sudoers command" or smth like that
[19:29] <rich> Thanks Histo/ubottu... I'll have a look at that.. Appreciate it
[19:29] <MonkeyDust> Guest30151  type /join #winehq, ask there
[19:30] <mbeierl> Guest30151: do you mean "how do I switch user to root"?
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> Meet: does the ppa support Quantal?
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> Retus: gimme a sec, I'll check mine
[19:31] <histo> rich: http://www.google.com/search?ie=ISO-8859-1&hl=en&source=hp&q=installing+ubuntu+12.04+on+vmware+f

[19:32] <meet> ActionParsnip: did not understand.
[19:32] <Guest30151> MonkeyDust. people are not answering me at wineHQ
[19:33] <MonkeyDust> Guest30151  wait a bit longer, then
[19:33] <mbeierl> Guest30151: what exactly is your question - how does one play windows games, or how does one use "root" ?
[19:34] <Guest30151> How to use play on linux on ubuntu as root
[19:34] <fidel_> Guest30151: what is your nativel anguage?
[19:34] <Guest30151>  o.o
[19:34] <mbeierl> Guest30151: that question makes no sense.  There is no game called "root" that you can play.
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> Rethus: add a percent sign before the username in visudo
[19:34] <rich> histo: Thanks, funnily enough I've had a look at that. Everything goes well up to the point about 7:15 into the video (apart from the "host SMBus controller not enabled" problem), I type the password to login and it just crashes.
[19:34] <Guest30151> Play o nlinux is a program...
[19:34] <Guest30151> play on linux*
[19:35] <Guest30151> And root is like admin
[19:35] <Guest30151> And it won't let me run play on linux when i am root.
[19:35] <mbeierl> Guest30151: and the error you get is ...?
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> Meet: check the ppa page. Not all ppas support all releases.
[19:35] <zex> ok I have one more quesiton guys
[19:35] <zex> I manged to get the symb link up for the freenas server

[19:41] <JohnUK89> Running stuff as root is just asking for them to do bad things to your system
[19:41] <rethus> or gui
[19:41] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: so you would know that running Xorg and web browsers and especially irc clients is particularly foolhardy
[19:42] <Guest30151> I have been running those for 3 monthes with no probs lol,
[19:42] <Guest30151> And you can easily shut down Xorg control.
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: im gonna go with that you have no idea why too
[19:42] <mbeierl> well, you have probs now, lol...
[19:43] <orbitwhite> he knows what hes doing
[19:43] <Guest30151> Just tell me how to run pol as root dude.
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: Xorg runs as user. So it is easily killable by user
[19:43] <bekks> orbitwhite: I doubt that, strongly.
[19:43] <Guest30151> Easier to kill by root :D
[19:44] <Ray2> Where to find numlock in 12.04.1
[19:44] <Guest30151> Now just tell me __-
[19:44] <ActionParsnip>  Guest30151: you will need to recompile it to remove the check
[19:44] <Guest30151> No probs.
[19:44] <Guest30151> I can compile it
[19:44] <The_Jag> Hi all, I need help configuring grub for a triboot system
[19:44] <Guest30151> But which part of the code has that annoying check?
[19:44] <The_Jag> I need to edit the entries
[19:44] <The_Jag> any help?
[19:44] <orbitwhite> as for me i'm afraid his mind is too beyond mine so i wouldn't try to give him any advices because as it was mentioned before he already knows what hes doing
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: I have my "I told you so" flag ready for you
[19:45] <The_Jag> I'm on Kubuntu
[19:45] <The_Jag> 12.10
[19:45] <Guest30151> Told me what?
[19:45] <mbeierl> Is acroread completely gone from the repos (12.10)?
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: ask in tje channel for the application.  Alternatively you can use the app as it is supposed to be used and have zero issues
[19:46] <micw_> hi
[19:46] <The_Jag> anyone?
[19:47] <micw_> i try to run xbmc on a ubuntu 12.04. most works out of the box except the remote. lirc_atiusb is missing. does anyone know where i can find it?
[19:47] <slowz> Guest30151, you can copy all your customizations from the root folder to the user. .config .gtk* ect.
[19:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: don't you think the guys who code the application know just a little more than you and would put a check like that in for a really good reason
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151: but you know what you are doing
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> Guest30151:right?
[19:48] <Ray2> Where to turn on numlock in 12.04.1

[19:49] <PjotrOrial> Hi, so when I try to report a bug,
[19:49] <PjotrOrial> sb@sd:~$ apport-bug
[19:49] <PjotrOrial> *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/python3: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x095121a8 ***
[19:49] <PjotrOrial> I get a memory corruption. I do get this corruption as well when trying to start VirtualBox, how would I repair such?
[19:49] <CommunistJamie> Question?
[19:49] <bekks> Answer.
[19:49] <CommunistJamie> Where would I find phpmyadmin after I've installed it?
[19:50] <CommunistJamie> It's not localhost/phpmyadmin
[19:50] <bekks> CommunistJamie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpMyAdmin -- did you configure it already?
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> Communistjamie: try:  sudo updatedb; locate phpmyadmin
[19:51] <CommunistJamie> I followed a tutorial and installed the packages and the dependencies.
[19:51] <epicfail> How do i get ybuntu phone on my samsung s3
[19:51] <speckz> CommunistJamie, /usr/share/phpmyadmin/ for me
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> Epicfail: try #ubuntu-phone
[19:52] <OerHeks> !phone
[19:52] <CommunistJamie> Yeah. Mine is there.
[19:52] <epicfail> Thnx dude
[19:52] <CommunistJamie> How would I get it to display on localhost/phpmyadmin?
[19:52] <bekks> CommunistJamie: You have to configure your webserver to access it on localhost/phpmyadmin
[19:53] <OerHeks> epicfail, if not, try #ubuntu-arm if your device has ARM
[19:53] <Pici> CommunistJamie: make sure that you have a symlink to /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf in /etc/apache2/conf.d/
[19:53] <ActionParsnip> Communistjamie: I'd check the link bekks gave
[19:54] <zex> any south african people here?
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> Zex: this is support. Location is moot
[19:54] <zex> lol I have rezched a poitn where I willing to pay 1 year of beer to get my problem solved.
[19:55] <Pici> !za

[19:55] <zex> crack
[19:55] <orbitwhite> meth will fit also lol
[19:55] <zex> dude I will give up ,y sister for this
[19:56] <epicfail> Someone knows when ubuntu phone releces
[19:57] <CommunistJamie> Cheers guys.
[19:57] <CommunistJamie> All sorted.

[19:59] <Ray2> Where to find numlock in 12.04.1
[19:59] <bekks> Ray2: Isnt that a key on your keyboard?
[20:01] <Ray2> bekks But how do I turn it on when trying to enter password at login without clicking key
[20:01] <bekks> Ray2: By holding the shift key.
[20:01] <bekks> Ray2: Which has the same effect.
[20:01] <bekks> GNA - no.
[20:02] <zebaszp> wow, I didn't know that shift/num lock thing
[20:02] <bekks> Ray2: Why do you need numlock? All keys available through numlock are availanle without numlock, too.
[20:02] <bekks> zebaszp: It was a mistake.
[20:02] <zebaszp> makes a load of sense, though
[20:02] <rich> histo: I found the answer!
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> Ray2: look into numlockx
[20:02] <bekks> zebaszp: Replace numlock with caps, and suddenly it makes a lot of sense :P
[20:03] <epimeth> hi all!  I'm trying to install ubuntu server to microsoft virtual pc to no avail... I tried nomodeset as well as selecting "minimal install to virtual machine" ... any ideas?  Googling gave me a bunch of older information including vga=791 and something about paravirt.  Nothing works.  The VM just shuts down after hitting "install"
[20:03] <ubuntu-tester> zebaszp, bekks: mee too, thank you
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> sudo numlockx on
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> Epimeth: is it a known issue with ms virtual pc?
[20:04] <Ray2> ActionParsnip, Thanks
[20:05] <zebaszp> Epimeth, why not use VirtualBox?
[20:05] <tion> can i report a bug?
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> Epimeth: any particular reason for using the Microsoft product instead of virtualbox or vmware?
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> Tion: anyone can
[20:06] <tion> because MS is the standard  software house for the PC
[20:06] <gatorgar79> anyone know of a document scanner that works in ubuntu
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> Tion: just run: ubuntu-bug packagename      and it will start the process
[20:07] <slacko28636> hello
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> Tion: what is a software house?
[20:07] <gatorgar79> hello slacko
[20:07] <tion> /etc/fstab lists /dev/sda7 and in gparted its listed has sdb7
[20:07] <gatorgar79> how are you
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Tion: do you mean "default installed" ?
[20:08] <tion> maybe aim doing something wrong or its a bug
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> Tion: fstab only lists the names from install time as comments.  It uses the UUID
[20:09] <epimeth> ActionParsnip: I have installed it in the past using something along those lines (vga= and paravirt) but don't remember how exactly.  Also, it was an older version of ubuntu.  As for why MS instead of other: a combination of laziness (as it is already installed for XP mode), knowing it should work, and just plain preferring how MS VPC looks and acts.  Bottom line, no specific reason I just want to have it
[20:09] <tion> ok so its a bug
[20:10] <ubuntu-tester> tion: and Disks utility lists ...?
[20:10] <susanna> hi everybody
[20:10] <jahlfrezi> how can I configure wireless+wired at the same time? I'm trying to let a computer in the local network access the internet through my laptop, which is the only one to reach anywhere wirelessly. :)
[20:10] <tete_> hi, i have ubuntu studio running and i can see that there is some input from my e guitar but i get no sound output... can someone help me with that?
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Epimeth: if it's a known issue then you will need to use the older version and upgrade or use something else
[20:11] <tion> or maybe some one needs to update this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ConvertFilesystemToExt4
[20:11] <epimeth> ActionParsnip: I did a bunch of searching.... I don't know that it is a known issue
[20:11] <tion> #code: sudo nano /etc/fstab
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> Jahlfrezi: if you define the wired in /etc/network/interfaces   you can let network manager deal with the wifi
[20:13] <jahlfrezi> thanks ActionParsnip, I was considering that, but thought it could cause issues between the two :)
[20:13] <ActionParsnip>  Epimeth: tried asking in ##windows
[20:13] <minas> hi, why does the dash take a lot of time to load the first time I open it after tirning the pc on?
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> Jahlfrezi: network manager will see the wired connection as 'unmanageable' but you won't care
[20:14] <epimeth> ActionParsnip: really?  "lol" is overused but in this case I actually did out loud.  I would say that the chance of me getting support for this there is actually negative
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Epimeth: then you know your choices. Considering virtualbox and vmware have been making virtualization software for a tonne longer than Microsoft,  I'm surprised anyone would use their offering
[20:16] <ubuntu-tester> !ubottu
[20:16] <jahlfrezi> ActionParsnip: yeah, true, but I just added a static entry in the interfaces file and did a networking restart, but for some reason, it seems eth0 is not coming up
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> Epimeth: as in, I thought it would be laughed out as a joke
[20:17] <tion> disk utility the same /dev/sdb7
[20:17] <tion> as gparted
[20:17] <zilla> ActionParsnip: im trying to add getdeb pgp key and my cursor just keeps blinking
[20:17] <zilla> ActionParsnip: how do I get the key file to add?
[20:18] <ubuntu-tester> !inetsharing | tete_
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Zilla: getdeb is far from reliable
[20:18] <zilla> ActionParsnip: okay thanks
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Zilla: try their web page too
[20:18] <epimeth> ActionParsnip: all true and I'll probably end up doing that if I can't figure this out
[20:19] <tion> can someone kill who ever pushed the use UIDS as default
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> Tion: those labels change so now UUIDs are used.  These are static
[20:19] <tion> and deprecated the convetional /sdb etc
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> Tion: its a better system
[20:20] <tion> its not HUMAN READABLE
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> Tion: if you add a new drive the drive names can change equals no boot
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> Tion: if you run:  sudo bllid   you will see the UUID mapping
[20:22] <tion> so the system would use UISI this one to update fstab in a proper maner and get out of the way
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> Sorry
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> sudo blkid
[20:23] <ubuntu-tester> tion: trust the majority :)
[20:23] <tion> majority = Hurd
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> Tion: if you shove in a PATA drive (for example) it will become sda and the current drive will be sdb. Grub will not find its data and your system will not boot
[20:24] <ubuntu-tester> tion: given the explanations above, there's no alternative to UUIDs today
[20:24] <niclas> Hi
[20:24] <tion> why in the 1at place would the new drive overcome the older installed drive thats nuts
[20:25] <vitimiti> salut
[20:25] <POVaddct> ubuntu-tester: there is also filesystem label based mount
[20:25] <Midec> Alright, I'm trying to do a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 64bit, i currently have ubuntu 12.10 32bit, im making my way through doing the fresh install(i want to erase everything and start over new)  and i get the error "Input/output error during read on /dev/sda"  every time.  I am a big noob when it comes to this, so help me like a child.
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> Tion: so you propose a possible non booting OS for hunan readability.  For the audience of ubuntu.  Not going to happen
[20:25] <Guest11330> is it possible to install ubuntu 12.04 with other bootloader than grub 2?
[20:25] <niclas> I recently started using Ubuntu (coming from Windows) and I'm stuck on trying to get Python 3.3 and Django 1.5 working.   LILO is in the repos too
[20:26] <bekks> tion: Of course you can still use the ancient /dev/sdXY notation.
[20:27] <POVaddct> tion: UUIDs are _not_ hardware IDs
[20:27] <tion> not for long since ubuntu is going TM way
[20:27] <POVaddct> tion: at least filesystem UUIDs aren't
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> Tion: you can still mount in the old style yourself
[20:27] <Midec> Alright, I'm trying to do a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 64bit, i currently have ubuntu 12.10 32bit, im making my way through doing the fresh install(i want to erase everything and start over new)  and i get the error "Input/output error during read on /dev/sda"  every time.  I am a big noob when it comes to this, so help me like a child.  (if you could, pm me with the help because It's hard to filter through all this chat)
[20:28] <ubuntu-tester> POVaddct: ...and that label has to be UUID to be reliable
[20:28] <jaker555> how to give root persmission to a folder ?
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> Jaker555: do you mean ownership
[20:28] <jaker555> ownership yes
[20:29] <jaker555> if i change it to my admin account other than " root " it breaks ubuntu
[20:29] <Guest11330> ActionParsnip , so i first install ubuntu with grub 2 which is the the one that comes with live cd and then change it to lilo using software source?
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> Jaker555: look into chown. Be careful
[20:29] <tion> can i resize / once i upgrade FS to ext4?
[20:29] <bekks> jaker555: Which folder do you talk about?
[20:29] <jaker555> yes but what do i do with chown ? i use $user for my admin account
[20:29] <jaker555> in var/log/gdm <- locked to root
[20:29] <jaker555> if i change it to my jaker account it breaks ubuntu
[20:29] <POVaddct> ubuntu-tester: i agree that fs UUIDs are more reliable than fs labels. but they would be more human readable.
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> Guest11330: yes. Imstall lilo and remove grub
[20:29] <jaker555> the theme disappear
[20:29] <ubuntu-tester> Midec: what installation media do you have?
[20:30] <bekks> jaker555: Then just leave it as it is. What do you want to achieve actually?
[20:30] <tion> UIDS are machine code
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> Jaker555: why not just run: gksudo gedit       then open the file
[20:30] <bekks> tion: Thats just not true. :)
[20:30] <Midec> ubuntu-tester: what do you mean?  i am using a USB stick to do the install(i am a big noob at this)
[20:31] <michele> i already have ubuntu-server installed. how do I launch the tasksel for "ubuntu software selection" (like http://askubuntu.com/questions/153265/what-does-the-basic-ubuntu-server-package-contain-in-software-selection-during ) ?
[20:31] <POVaddct> tion: UUIDs are not code at all. they are just big numbers, randomly generated.
[20:31] <tion> yes
[20:31] <tion> they are made by machines for machines
[20:31] <jaker555> actionparsnip i don't have time for that
[20:31] <jaker555> logs are not important
[20:31] <bekks> jaker555: Then just leave it as it is. What do you want to achieve actually?
[20:31] <jaker555> i want full access
[20:32] <jhalfrezi> not quite successful :(
[20:32] <bekks> jaker555: So you want to access it with another user, as well?
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> Tion: the UUID is generated when the partition is made. Thats how each one has a UUID
[20:32] <POVaddct> tion: then "machine code" is the wrong term because it refers to something executable
[20:32] <jhalfrezi> as soon as I plug in the eth0 cable, the wireless disappears
[20:32] <Guest11330> ActionParsnip , i want to try this because using an usb stick with ubuntu 12.04 makes my computer freeze at boot. i cant even enter bios. what do you think?
[20:32] <jhalfrezi> from the network manager
[20:32] <jhalfrezi> and if it is connected, it disconnects itself
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> Jaker555: you have it via sudo and gksudo
[20:33] <tion> i was being ironic/sarcastic
[20:33] <jhalfrezi> and if I happen to modify the wireles config an choose to save for all users, it goes on step ahead and deletes _all_ configurations
[20:33] <jhalfrezi> which is quite like the intended purpose, inversely speaking
[20:33] <Haematoma> ActionParsnip: For dealing with USB HDDs, is there an advantage of using UUID over serial no. to identify a particular drive.
[20:33] <tion> machine code isnt human readable
[20:33] <Haematoma> ?*
[20:33] <bekks> Haematoma: Sure.
[20:33] <bekks> tion: But UUID are human-readable.
[20:33] <tion> can i resize / once i upgrade FS to ext4?
[20:34] <Haematoma> bekks: what would that advantage be?
[20:34] <jaker555> ok ignore it guys.. i will try ti find out how to chown it
[20:34] <jaker555> in after few hours of serach
[20:34] <tion> just like code bars are human readable
[20:34] <bekks> Haematoma: Uniquely identifying your USB filesystem.
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Jaker555 : its an extra word in a command.  Yet you have time to ask and wait for an answer in IRC
[20:34] <POVaddct> hehe
[20:34] <tion> can i resize / once i upgrade FS to ext4?
[20:34] <bekks> tion: Then stop argueing, and just do not use them.
[20:34] <jaker555> no probvlem guys
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Jaker555: not weird?
[20:34] <jaker555> you just stress us too much so we stick with linux
[20:34] <bekks> tion: And stop asking your question on and on again.
[20:35] <Haematoma> bekks: so uuid implicitly tells us the partition filesystem?
[20:35] <tion> ive got this question a timer till someone ansers
[20:35] <bekks> Haematoma: The UUID is stored in the filesystem header. It tells us: "This filesystem has the UUID xyz."
[20:36] <Haematoma> bekks: kk, that makes sense
[20:36] <bekks> tion: Then please dont mind setting you onto ignore until then.
[20:36] <tion> Haematoma, dont tell you anything other that an serial number
[20:36] <Guest11330> ActionParsnip , i want to try this because using an usb stick with ubuntu 12.04 makes my computer freeze at boot. i cant even enter bios. but i boot plop whithout the usb stick and connect it when at plop menu.what do you think?
[20:36] <POVaddct> tion: looks like ext4 can be resized online (in mounted state) if it is not the root filesystem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/24027/how-to-resize-a-ext4-root-partition-at-runtime
[20:36] <slowz> tion, you can resize ext4 so long as its not mounted
[20:36] <bekks> Haematoma: A _unique_ number.
[20:36] <POVaddct> tion: i am not using ext4 so i don't know for sure
[20:37] <tion> slowz, so i can use eseus partition master to do it?
[20:37] <tion> from windows
[20:37] <mcclainreynolds> Hey guys
[20:37] <mcclainreynolds> Can I ask some questions about how to install an Ubuntu partition
[20:38] <mcclainreynolds> using a usb?
[20:38] <mcclainreynolds> I have the iso downloaded
[20:38] <mcclainreynolds> I'm on a mac
[20:38] <slowz> tion, i would use a live cd with gparted. i dont know anything about eseus
[20:38] <FloodBot1> mcclainreynolds: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:38] <POVaddct> this is ubuntu support, we don't know about obscure windows tools
[20:38] <tion> my cdrom is broken
[20:39] <slowz> usb stick?
[20:39] <BroUnicorn> Yeah
[20:39] <jhalfrezi> does anyone know why when network-manager detects link eth0, it immediately disconnects the wireless?
[20:39] <BroUnicorn> I'm mcclain btw
[20:39] <tion> can i use my usb mp3 player to install gparted on?
[20:39] <jhalfrezi> any suggestions on how to keep both network would be great :)
[20:40] <tion> can i use my usb mp3 player to boot gparted from?
[20:40] <slowz>  /ignore tion
[20:40] <tion> what?
[20:40] <bekks> slowz: Already done :)
[20:40] <OerHeks> tion how did you install ubuntu in the fist place ? stop trolling please
[20:40] <POVaddct> !repeat | tion
[20:40] <Guest11330> ActionParsnip , never mind i ll have to try it anyway.
[20:41] <tion> i installed it from *.iso
[20:41] <tion> cdrom broke after instsalation
[20:42] <BroUnicorn> instsalation....lol
[20:42] <tion> ive upgraded all the way from intrepid
[20:42] <tion> cdrom isnt working anymore
[20:42] <tion> can i use my usb mp3 player to boot gparted from?
[20:42] <POVaddct> tion: do you know if the bios of the machine is able to boot off usb anyway?
[20:42] <tion> yes i know
[20:43] <tion> anymore questions?
[20:43] <POVaddct> tion: and you have no spare usb stick?
[20:43] <hillary> still unable to print ubuntu 12.04

[20:46] <Midec> Alright, I'm trying to do a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 64bit, i currently have ubuntu 12.10 32bit, im making my way through doing the fresh install(i want to erase everything and start over new)  and i get the error "Input/output error during read on /dev/sda"  every time.  I am a big noob when it comes to this, so help me like a child.  (if you could, pm me with the help because It's hard to filter through all this chat)
[20:46] <POVaddct> tion: i wasn't asking about the filesystem. fat16 has some size limits, on files and the filesystem itself.
[20:46] <bekks> Midec: You do not have to erase anything, you can just start a new install.
[20:47] <hillary> any help
[20:47] <tion> yes i know im thinkng about the usb installer trying to format it
[20:47] <ioria> Midec: when and where do you get the error ?
[20:47] <Midec> bekks:  every time i get 'input/output error during read on /dev/sda"
[20:47] <abyss42> how do i integrate cookie info in a curl request?
[20:47] <bekks> Midec: When doing what?
[20:47] <bekks> !details | Midec
[20:47] <Midec> ioria:  right after i click fresh install, or manually set up partitions, i have tried both
[20:47] <hillary> unable to print
[20:47] <tion> i dont want to brick the mp3
[20:48] <POVaddct> tion: don't format it
[20:48] <hillary> ubuntu 12.04 not detecting printer hp laserjet 1010
[20:48] <BroUnicorn> Question: I converted the ubuntu desktop iso file to an img file. OSX added .dmg to the file. How should I go about correcting this?
[20:49] <fidel_> BroUnicorn: hdiutil should be able to convert dmg to iso afaik
[20:49] <fidel_> its a osx cli tool
[20:49] <Midec> ubottu:  I did, i said i was using 12.10 32bit, and im trying to install 12.04 64bit, and i get the error "input/output error during read on /dev/sda"     it happens right after i manually set up the partitions, and when i just do erase disc and install ubuntu,
[20:50] <ioria> Midec: are you installing from usb ?
[20:50] <Midec> ioria: yes i am
[20:50] <Bino1710> @hillary - did you  ever have the printer working with any version of ubuntu?
[20:50] <BroUnicorn> fidel_: I just used that to convert the iso to an img… do I have to redo it?
[20:50] <bekks> BroUnicorn: Isnt Mac capable of dealing with iso files?
[20:50] <phunyguy> Why do I always have to tell Ubuntu to restart TWICE before it actually acknowledges a restart command?
[20:50] <bekks> BroUnicorn: No, you dont have to convert it again.
[20:50] <phunyguy> ALWAYS.
[20:50] <fidel_> BroUnicorn: then ignore my input - i might misinterpreted it
[20:50] <hillary> yes last week it was working with this 12.04 lts very well
[20:51] <slowz> Midec, ive had that error before. it was a disk going back. i know that not much help but that was my issue with the input/output error
[20:51] <BroUnicorn> bekks: I'm following the instructions on http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx -it states that OSX may append .dmg, but it doesn't say whether this is an error or not
[20:51] <slowz> *disk going bad*
[20:51] <hillary> yesterday it stopped detecting even the scanner
[20:51] <Midec> slowz:  what did you do to fix it?
[20:51] <Bino1710> sound like you may have to reinstall the drivers
[20:51] <slowz> Midec, bought a new disk
[20:51] <ioria> Midec: maybe bad sectors
[20:51] <bekks> BroUnicorn: No, it is not an error.
[20:52] <Midec> slowz:  so how come i can normally use the laptop as it currently is?  i just get this error when im trying to do a fresh install.
[20:52] <BroUnicorn> bekks: So I should just carry on?
[20:52] <bekks> BroUnicorn: Yes.
[20:52] <Midec> slowz:  should i just reformat it while i am logged on normally, and then proceed?
[20:53] <slowz> Midec, i did cheat and give myself some time by partitioning only the last half of the disk. the bad area was only on the first part of the disk
[20:53] <bekks> Midec: You cannot format anything while being logged in.
[20:53] <tion> can i use tune2fs  using uuIDs?
[20:53] <ioria> Midec: did you download from official mirror ?
[20:53] <Midec> bekks:  i thought i could use gparted or something?
[20:53] <bekks> Midec: Just boot from the installation cd.
[20:54] <bekks> Midec: You cant use gparted from a running system.
[20:54] <hillary> what do i do
[20:54] <Midec> ioria: yes, i downloaded yesturday from the website
[20:54] <Midec> bekks:  so should i just throw gparted on a usb and boot it, then try?
[20:54] <bekks> Midec: Yes.
[20:55] <Midec> bekks:  alright i'll try that, i guess if that doesn't work, ill have to go out n' buy a new hard drive :/
[20:55] <bekks> Midec: No.
[20:55] <ioria> Midec: try before the alternate
[20:55] <bekks> Midec: If that "doesnt work", you have to deactivate swap, and try again.
[20:56] <tion> uuids are spam
[20:56] <Midec> bekks:  so when i am setting up partitions don't include a swap?
[20:57] <bekks> Midec: Thats not what I said. An existing swap partition is maybe used by a livecd. So you have to deactivate it before being able to perform actions with gparted.

[21:00] <miroesq> i installed a program using a script which i ran as sudo. now when i try and access the location using normal cd....., i get permission denied. if i use sudo cd...... i get cd command not found.
[21:00] <coolboy13> what are the advantages of unix like operating systems over windows
[21:00] <ioria> Midec: did you try "try ubuntu" instead of install ?
[21:01] <miroesq> i installed a program using a script which i ran as sudo. now when i try and access the location using normal cd....., i get permission denied. if i use sudo cd...... i get cd command not found.
[21:01] <qr> coolboy13: you get to hang out with people with big beards

[21:02] <tion> not to meantion neck beards
[21:02] <quesada> they are from opensuse.  I want to create a bootcamp partition of Ubuntu. I have the .dmg file… do I just use disk utility from this point?

[21:03] <nick__> Anybody here using Deluge?
[21:04] <Bare7a> Hello
[21:05] <mrmycorn> hello... does anyone know how to rip a CD using Lubuntu<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:05] <MonkeyDust> nick__  yes
[21:06] <mrmycorn> 12.1
[21:06] <nick__> MonkeyDust: I have quite a problem with it, I have set another download location but everytime I restart Deluge it's back to the defualt. I have read it's a bug within GTK?
[21:07] <Ronalds_M> hello
[21:07] <Ronalds_M> I lost chromium tabs after update
[21:07] <Ronalds_M> no tabs showing by default
[21:09] <MonkeyDust> nick__  it's odd, the location stays as i changed it - did you click 'apply'? - there's also 'move completed to'
[21:11] <milton> hello...
[21:11] <milton> anyone help me with a flash problem?
[21:11] <nick__> MonkeyDust: Yep, I clicked apply. When I exit Deluge and starts it up again, it's back to defualt.
[21:11] <Ronalds_M> I lost chromium tabs after update, is it design flaw or something?
[21:12] <nick__> MonkeyDust: But from what I can see, it should help to downgrade GTK+ to 2.24.10
[21:12] <ilikepandas> software center was released in summer of 2011 correct?
[21:13] <MonkeyDust> nick__  don't downgrade, you'l ruin your system - delete ~/.config/deluge   then restart deluge and change the location
[21:14] <BroUnicorn> so I got to step 8 on this
[21:15] <BroUnicorn> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx. I typed the code. It asked for my password for sudo. I entered it but nothing happened....
[21:15] <dr_willis> ilikepandas:  its been out for like 2-3 releases now.. so close to that.
[21:15] <Peyam> hej
[21:16] <BroUnicorn> So I pressed control-c to exit out.  I get this error massage.
[21:16] <alusion> I want to remove a bunch of files with nearly the same name [out-1.ogv out-2.ogv] how can I make this process easier?
[21:16] <MonkeyDust> Peyam  language
[21:16] <Peyam> [2013-01-15 22:06:02 - ThenewBoston] /home/peyam/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/aapt: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[21:16] <BroUnicorn> Does this mean that the command worked or exited when I pressed ctrl c?
[21:16] <nick__> MonkeyDust: Hmm, I can't figure out how to delete it using terminal
[21:16] <bekks> BroUnicorn: ctrl+c broke it up, it wasnt finished yet.
[21:16] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  sounds like it wasent done with the dd copying... it was copying  and thats why 'nothing heppened' it was working
[21:17] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: I see. Is there a way to undo my mistake?
[21:17] <MonkeyDust> nick__  rm ~/.config/Deluge
[21:17] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  rerun the commands
[21:17] <MonkeyDust> nick__  rm -r ~/.config/Deluge
[21:18] <nick__> MonkeyDust: Didn't fix it, hmm :(
[21:18] <nick__> MonkeyDust: Is there any other torrent clients worth using?
[21:18] <ilikepandas_> but its not clear when software center first released, since ubuntu used synaptics package manager which is kind of similar to install software.
[21:18] <dr_willis> dozens of torrent clients out there.
[21:18] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: Thanks! I reran the command. I entered my password (I believe, although I can't see anything being typed). Now it's just sitting there.. so we'll see if it corrects it.
[21:19] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  it dose not echo your password.. that would be rather insecure if you think about it...
[21:19] <ilikepandas_> why am i getting ping timeout
[21:19] <MonkeyDust> nick__  transmission is the most common
[21:19] <nick__> MonkeyDust: I fixed it!
[21:19] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: That's definitely true. I'm just wondering whether it's working or not since it didn't pop up any type of message..
[21:19] <MonkeyDust> nick__  how did you do it?
[21:20] <ilikepandas_> nick__: utorrent is master.
[21:20] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  dd command dosent give any feedback by default.  Theres ways to moniotors its progress.
[21:20] <nick__> MonkeyDust:I found this: "From the user perspective, I found out that the following allows me to use the directory I choose: select "Other", choose a directory, then switch to "File System" in the drop-down and switch back to the chosen directory again." and it seems to work!
[21:20] <dr_willis> utorrent does exist for linux.
[21:20] <Peyam> [2013-01-15 22:06:02 - ThenewBoston] /home/peyam/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/aapt: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[21:20] <xangua> there is utorrent server dr_willis
[21:21] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: Okay, that's good to know. I believe it finished now, however a box popped up that says "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer."
[21:21] <tomrt> hi, all !
[21:21] <BroUnicorn> (Initialize… ; ignore ; Eject) << Those are the three options provided.
[21:21] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  if its done.. time to test it out
[21:22] <tomrt> I'm new to ubuntu, I try it since one week
[21:22] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: I guess that was just it's way of telling me that there was now an operating system on my flash drive. :P
[21:22] <mbeierl> Ok - How do I share printers in ubuntu now?  I have the check box on the server checked - share printers with other systems.  On the client I have the option show printers shared by other systems checked.  Yet... nothing.  This used to work in 10.04
[21:22] <mbeierl> at 12.04 now
[21:22] <BroUnicorn> I'm going to test it out now.
[21:23] <tomrt> on ubuntu 12.10, it seem lightdm is freezing sometimes
[21:24] <tomrt> juste after login, impossible to move windows
[21:24] <blami> tomrt: or it crashes completely, 50% of my boots end up in console
[21:25] <blami> tomrt: by the chance do you have intel gpu?
[21:25] <ilikepandas_> ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10 has major changes in that unity is no more. And graphics changed too
[21:25] <tomrt> no crash, just freeze, the only way to resolve the problem is to restart lightdm
[21:25] <tomrt> with "sudo restart lightdm"
[21:26] <KI4RO> mbeierl, Did you share them in CUPS?
[21:26] <orbitwhite> someone please kill me, i'm missing for classic interface i got used to =)
[21:26] <blami> ilikepandas_: I blame intel driver rather than xorg or unity
[21:26] <tomrt> I'm on an intel Core i7, is this a usual problem ?
[21:27] <blami> ilikepandas_: I had to disable intel_iommu and txt extension completely
[21:27] <tomrt> blami : I'm on an intel Core i7, is this a usual problem ?
[21:27] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: Well, it definitely didn't work. I believe I messed up the usb when I used ctrl-c, as now it tells me the disk is unreadable every time I plug it in.
[21:27] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: How do I go about cleaning it off?
[21:28] <BroUnicorn> dr_willis: OR could this also be due to having a file that is Ubuntu.img.dmg?
[21:28] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  No idea.  I dont use OSX.  i would think the tool would look for the right file name
[21:29] <mbeierl> KI4RO: Share them on the server or do something on the client?  I haven't changed the server
[21:30] <mbeierl> KI4RO: the check box on the server says to share printers, and the printer itself has a check box saying share this printer
[21:30] <dcope> anyone using SnapRAID?
[21:31] <mbeierl> KI4RO: Basically, following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu
[21:31] <BroUnicorn> Does anyone know how I can completely clean a usb to factory?
[21:31] <mbeierl> BroUnicorn: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX where X is the if of the usb once mounted?
[21:32] <BroUnicorn> the if?
[21:32] <usr13> BroUnicorn: The device name
[21:32] <hilo> good afternoon Ubuntu
[21:32] <mbeierl> BroUnicorn: if = the input source.  in this case a pseudo device that emits all zeros
[21:33] <usr13> mbeierl: Just a reformat would do, wouldn't it?
[21:33] <dr_willis> BroUnicorn:  is on OX-S so i dont know the right dev names.  on it
[21:33] <BroUnicorn> Then I totally messed up as I actually typed "if=" when running the dd command originally to put it on my usb
[21:33] <t4b__> BroUnicorn, think of "if" as input file, I think that's what it means and it makes sense :-)
[21:33] <BroUnicorn> lol
[21:34] <mbeierl> usr13: yes, but that is typically a quick format.  If one wants all the data erased so that it is filled with zeros and not recoverable....
[21:34] <hilo> I have a server running ubuntu 10.04. The swapiness is set to 1. The machine is still swapping. Currently, there is over half the physical ram completely unused, but the system swapped almost a gig. What's going on here???
[21:34] <usr13> mbeierl: Ok. Fair enough...
[21:34] <mbeierl> !ram
[21:35] <feeshon> hilo: Can you figure out what is utilizing the swap?
[21:35] <usr13> hilo: How's it running?
[21:35] <blkadder> free
[21:36] <koumi> hi
[21:36] <hilo> usr13, Fine, just not sure why it is swapping.
[21:36] <tomrt> blami : thanks for your help, finally found out many other having the same problem on a Intel i7 on Ivy bridge and ubuntu 12.10
[21:36] <tomrt> I'll try 12.04
[21:36] <hilo> feeshon, not sure how
[21:37] <BroUnicorn> mbeierl: I'm attempting to restore it to how it was before I attempted to put Ubuntu on it so that I can try to put ubuntu on it again
[21:37] <blami> tomrt: I am on i5 Ivy Bridge as well
[21:37] <feeshon>  http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ is a str8 and to the point
[21:39] <BroUnicorn> http://askubuntu.com/questions/239817/usb-becomes-unreadable-after-putting-the-img-on-it-mac Exact same issue I'm having
[21:39] <usr13> hilo: Did you read http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/linux-kernel/free-mem.html ?
[21:39] <tomrt> blami : OK, so the HD4000 with 12.10 seems to be the cause
[21:41] <hilo> http://picpaste.com/5fa4d5a2ba04bd133974df7d4aa2bf44.png
[21:42] <hilo> usr13, I get what the cache is doing, but I have 16 gigs. only about 5 are used and the grand majority are free; yet my system is still swapping
[21:44] <deitarion> Can anyone recommend a tool for blinking my Scroll Lock LED to indicate something like new mail? Ubuntu no longer provides packages for "blinkd" or "ledcontrol", I'm not sure if they ever provided "mailleds", and I don't want to waste CPU with constant fork()ing by using (while true; do xset led named "Scroll Lock"; sleep 0.4; xset -led named "Scroll Lock"; sleep 0.4; done)
[21:44] <tomrt> blami : maybe one solution -> edit /etc/init/lightdm.conf and copy "sleep 2" just before "exec lightdm"
[21:46] <koumi> hey some times when I suspend Ubuntu it crashes and the image stays still  does it happen also to you guys
[21:47] <kmicu> Anyone have patch for current compiz grid behavior described here https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-plugins-main/+bug/878820
[21:47] <BroUnicorn> Would someone mind walking me through the steps of making my usb a boot drive?
[21:47] <BroUnicorn> I managed to clean it off
[21:47] <kmicu> Or maybe some windows manager where I can divide windows by 2/3 and 1/3 ;]?
[21:47] <orudie> I remember a long time ago a rotating cube for ubuntu was called compiz-fusion or something like that. is that still around ?
[21:48] <usr13> BroUnicorn: So you want to install Ubuntu on a USB flash drive.  Right?
[21:48] <thec4ke> compiz doesnt work with unity
[21:48] <BroUnicorn> usr13: Yes. This is correct.
[21:48] <BroUnicorn> usr13: :D
[21:48] <orudie> I really do not like unity
[21:48] <deitarion> thec4ke: Really? Did 12.10 replace Compiz with something else? I know 12.04 uses Compiz to provide the compositing for Unity.
[21:48] <ero-jiji> is it possible to share a folder in my /home folder with another user? say my user account is "desktop" and i want to share /home/ftp with user account "test"
[21:48] <orudie> is there a way to completely turn off unity, and what are the drawbacks of turning it off ?
[21:49] <thec4ke> orudie: give mint a try
[21:49] <thec4ke> its basically ubuntu with a normal desktop
[21:49] <deitarion> orudie: You don't need Mint to use Compiz.
[21:49] <orudie> what is mint ?
[21:49] <designbybeck____> CTRL + ALT + L to lock the screen... is there another keystroke or is there another one?
[21:49] <designbybeck____> or another way?
[21:49] <usr13> BroUnicorn: It's the same process, you just choose the USB drive as target.
[21:50] <deitarion> orudie: It's another Linux distro (based on Ubuntu) which, apparently, is so primitive that you have to reinstall to upgrade to each new release.
[21:50] <BroUnicorn> usr13: I'm not sure what you mean..
[21:50] <kmicu> thec4ke: deitarion I have compiz with unity @ 12.10 with retarded grid plugin...
[21:50] <BroUnicorn> usr13: I should follow the same instructions I was following?
[21:50] <BroUnicorn> usr13: I don't know what to do differently.
[21:50] <thec4ke> www.linuxmint.com/
[21:50] <usr13> BroUnicorn: And in the end you tell it to write grub to the USB drive.
[21:50] <orudie> why do I need mint ?
[21:50] <orudie> Can't I just disable unity ?
[21:50] <deitarion> kmicu: In other words, Compiz works with Unity... just not necessarily every Compiz plugin.
[21:50] <BroUnicorn> usr13: To write "grub"?
[21:50] <deitarion> orudie: Of course. What desktop do you want?
[21:50] <thec4ke> if you just want compiz lubuntu and xubuntu support it iirc
[21:51] <usr13> BroUnicorn: Yes, grub.  (grub is the boot loader).
[21:51] <orbitwhite> i run mate on 12.10
[21:51] <kmicu> deitarion: grid works, but devs are hibernated https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-plugins-main/+bug/878820
[21:51] <BroUnicorn> usr13: Okay. How would I go about doing that?
[21:51] <thec4ke> pretty sure anything besides mutter will break anything gnome 3 based
[21:51] <BroUnicorn> usr13: All I know how to do is follow the directions ubuntu provides.
[21:51] <thec4ke> ie unity
[21:51] <deitarion> orudie: My brother ditched Unity simply by running `sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop` and then picking Lubuntu at the login screen.
[21:51] <orudie> damn. I am really not familiar with using linux desktop. So i am not even familiar with what is lubuntu or xubuntu
[21:52] <ero-jiji> is it possible to share a folder in my /home folder with another user? say my user account is "desktop" and i want to share /home/ftp with user account "test"
[21:52] <thec4ke> its ubuntu with a different desktop environment
