[10:17] <aaronmehar> GuybrushThreepwo: you are reading what from windows? it would as windows doesnt know what it is
[10:18] <ubuntu544> sam113101: by the way I get an error code 10 with ubi-partman while trying to install LTS version
[10:18] <Sh1G3rU> GuybrushThreepwo, windows doesnt recognise anything else apart fat and ntfs so it calls everything else raw
[10:18] <GuybrushThreepwo> aaronmehar: I want to know if theres any way I can access my ubuntu partition files from inside windows.
[10:18] <GuybrushThreepwo> >_>
[10:18] <aaronmehar> look at the link I gave
[10:18] <ubuntu544> It doesn't create any partition at all and i'm unable to get Ubuntu installed
[10:18] <GuybrushThreepwo> ext2explore doesn't show anything
[10:18] <Beldar> GuybrushThreepwo, Using a shared ntfs partition is the most modern answer
[10:18] <MasterOfDisaster> GuybrushThreepwo: as others said, use ext2fsd.
[10:19] <ubuntu544> I tried addin nodmraid without any succes
[10:19] <Sh1G3rU> GuybrushThreepwo,  there is a program for windows called ext2read (ext to read) you can read ext ufs hsfs file systems with that
[10:19] <Sh1G3rU> from windows
[10:19] <aaronmehar> yeah, NTFS is windows native and ubuntu now I think... or its easy to install ntfs-3g
[10:19] <Sh1G3rU> and it is a freeware
[10:20] <Beldar> GuybrushThreepwo, I would not bother with ext2read it is old and not really suggested, not sure why its being pushed here.
[10:20] <Sh1G3rU> aaronmehar, *NIX-es are universal and recognise everything
[10:21] <aaronmehar> Sh1G3rU: now maybe, yes.
[10:21] <GuybrushThreepwo> says it can't be used for NT or later...
[10:21] <GuybrushThreepwo> but running in compatibility mode seems to allow it
[10:22] <GuybrushThreepwo> Beldar: What's your suggestion?
[10:23] <Beldar> GuybrushThreepwo, An extra ntfs partition that bothe windows and ubuntu can use to store what you need to share.
[10:23] <aaronmehar> GuybrushThreepwo: What version are you using?
[10:23] <aaronmehar> of windows
[10:23] <GuybrushThreepwo> Beldar: I need to access the files I have on my existing partition
[10:23] <GuybrushThreepwo> windows 8
[10:24] <Beldar> GuybrushThreepwo, Like?
[10:24] <GuybrushThreepwo> I just want to copy the stuff over from there that i want to keep cause i probably need to clean install.
[10:24] <Beldar> GuybrushThreepwo, like?
[10:25] <aaronmehar> GuybrushThreepwo: any good? I have used Windows since Vista. Use the www.ext2fsd.com program to access ext
[10:25] <aaronmehar> then get a small secondary drive/partition format as NTFS and share in the goodness
[10:26] <aaronmehar> or get rid of Windows?
[10:27] <GuybrushThreepwo> aaronmehar:, yeah, I'm going to get rid of windows, when I can't even update a stupid graphics driver without ubuntu crashing beyond repair
[10:28] <GuybrushThreepwo> What exactly am I supposed to do with this program?
[10:29] <aaronmehar> GuybrushThreepwo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRnly7XEda8
[10:30] <Zorky> How would i make ufw block everything. but allow everything from a certain ip?
[10:31] <GuybrushThreepwo> So I select permanent?
[10:31] <GuybrushThreepwo> But now that letter doesnt appear in fila mgr
[10:31] <GuybrushThreepwo> G appeared before, but asked if i wanted to format. i said no
[10:32] <aaronmehar> like I said before, I havent used it since Vista but I remember the program asked if I wasnt accessing it temp I said yes and when I exited the program I got access from Windows again
[10:33] <Stephenx7> Hi there, I have a big Problem with ubuntu and .desktop files. I  need to associate a custom software (not installed through apt-get or softwarecenter) with a fileEXTENSION (not a filetype!!) I have been googleing for some time now, used ubuntu-tweak and what not, it's not working.
[10:33] <Stephenx7> Can someone please help??
[10:34] <GuybrushThreepwo> there we go
[10:35] <GuybrushThreepwo> nice
[10:35] <ObrienDave> well, the extension usually defines the filetype so I would say right-click, "open with other application" and select the one you want
[10:35] <Stephenx7> but the one I want is just an executable somewhere on the disk, it does not show up there
[10:36] <llutz> fileextensions are useless, just part of a filename, only used for "humans". filemanagers use filetypes by default
[10:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> Now the other issue is
[10:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> I screwed up my graphics driver and it won't load now
[10:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> the display turns off as ubuntu is loading
[10:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> and that's no good to me
[10:37] <GuybrushThreepwo> I would prefer not to have to reinstall over that but...
[10:38] <ActionPa1snip> GuybrushThreepwo: does the login screen eventually show?
[10:38] <GuybrushThreepwo> ActionPa1snip: no
[10:38] <MasterOfDisaster> GuybrushThreepwo: did you mess with grub options for a pretty boot screen?
[10:38] <ActionPa1snip> GuybrushThreepwo: what GPU(s) do you use?
[10:38] <Stephenx7> @llutz: Yes, that's the problem. I have a .bibtext file but the filemanager only sees plain/text, I want to make zotero open it by default
[10:38] <GuybrushThreepwo> I have an AMD Radeon HD 7660G Discrete-Class graphics card. I tried installing fglrx. The loading screen filled all 5 red dots and then froze. So I came back here for help. They had me purge that stuff and install xserver-xord-video-ati and xserver-xord-video-radeon. since I did that, instead of freezing at loading screen, the display shuts off completely.  One guy told me to use dmesg. Here's that result when using the comman
[10:39] <GuybrushThreepwo> after choosing failsafe graphics mode in recovery, then choosing run: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6483254/
[10:39] <ActionPa1snip> GuybrushThreepwo: does the system have a make and model?
[10:40] <GuybrushThreepwo> It's an HP envy dv6
[10:40] <GuybrushThreepwo> Let me look up more specifics
[10:40] <GuybrushThreepwo> HP ENVY dv6-7229wm
[10:41] <GuybrushThreepwo> It worked fine until I tried to update my graphics driver.
[10:41] <ActionPa1snip> GuybrushThreepwo: seems to be an OPtimus thing (Intel and Nvidia) :(
[10:41] <ActionPa1snip> GuybrushThreepwo: what method did you use to try and upgrade the driver?
[10:42] <GuybrushThreepwo> first add repository that has fglrx
[10:42] <GuybrushThreepwo> apt-get update then upgrade then install
[10:42] <GuybrushThreepwo> then removed the old one
[10:42] <GuybrushThreepwo> after that failed..
[10:43] <GuybrushThreepwo> they had me purge fglrx and install xserver-xorg-video-ati and -radeon
[10:43] <GuybrushThreepwo> then after that failed they had me move to backup xord.conf and then remove the /etc/ati folder
[10:43] <GuybrushThreepwo> and didnt help
[10:44] <Calinou> ActionPa1snip, it's called Enduro
[10:44] <GuybrushThreepwo> and, well, basically i have no idea what to do at this point so unless someone can tell me i have no choice but to clean install but i really don't want to have to clean install every time i want to update a driver
[10:44] <Calinou> for AMD cards
[10:47] <aaronmehar> is there an apache channel?
[10:47] <LjL> aaronmehar: #httpd
[10:47] <GuybrushThreepwo> ./join #apache would be the first thing i'd think of trying
[10:47] <GuybrushThreepwo> it links you to #httpd
[10:48] <aaronmehar> Cheers guys.. easier to click and join than search :D
[10:49] <GuybrushThreepwo> I didn't search either >_>
[10:49] <GuybrushThreepwo> Does anyone else have any ideas for me?
[10:49] <GuybrushThreepwo> I'd love to hear them but must sleep
[10:49] <aaronmehar> #apache doesnt exist :(
[10:49] <aaronmehar> #httpd does :)
[10:50] <GuybrushThreepwo> try leaving #httpd and then joining #apache
[10:50] <aaronmehar> #httpd :Cannot send to channel
[10:50] <aaronmehar> I am now very sad
[10:51] <Beldar> !register | aaronmehar
[10:51] <Beldar> aaronmehar, Some channels require you to be registered with freenode
[10:52] <aaronmehar> cool.... Ive never really used IRC that much until I started at my hosting company so bare with me.. Ive been supporting CentOs for years
[10:53] <cfhowlett> bear/bare/bayer
[10:53] <GuybrushThreepwo> well thanks for your guys help with ext2 volume manager
[10:53] <GuybrushThreepwo> even though i guess my partition is screwed
[10:53] <GuybrushThreepwo> is there any way to get a decent driver for gaming on my laptop?
[10:54] <GuybrushThreepwo> the default one doesn't really cut it
[10:56] <dragon7> I am going to boot Ubuntu 13.10 in my 500gb hard disk but I have stuck at the stage where you have to partition the hard disk. Here's what I have done till now:http://paste.ubuntu.com/6483741/
[10:56] <dragon7> please help me further

[10:58] <cfhowlett> no worries
[10:59] <cfhowlett> dragon7, so now it's time to partition ...
[10:59] <dragon7> guide me cfhowlett
[10:59] <cfhowlett> details  ... dual boot?
[11:00] <cfhowlett> single HDD
[11:00] <dragon7> nope cfhowlett

[11:00] <Potato81> hola
[11:00] <cfhowlett> !es|Potato81,
[11:00] <cfhowlett> dragon7, are you dual booting with windows?
[11:01] <dragon7> no cfhowlett
[11:01] <cfhowlett> dragon7, so install ubuntu.  easy.  personally, I do the install first and download updates later.
[11:02] <hex20dec> Hey people, when I try to apt-get install firmware-b43-installer I get: coudn't find package firmware-b43-installer. Am I missing a repository or??
[11:02] <hex20dec> Running 10.04
[11:02] <dragon7> cfhowlett what about installing third party software
[11:02] <cfhowlett> hex20dec, end of life there so no longer supported.  upgrade to 12.04
[11:03] <hex20dec> cfhowlett: Okay
[11:03] <hex20dec> Thanks
[11:03] <cfhowlett> dragon7, that'll be your .mp3 codecs and such.  again, get the install done and then sudo apt-get ubuntu-restricted-extras

[11:04] <Rory> remember that middle-click-paste thing I was talking about yesterday cfhowlett ?
[11:04] <SaulMecanus> eyyy
[11:04] <Rory> cfhowlett: It bit me
[11:05] <cfhowlett> Rory, ow
[11:05] <cfhowlett> dragon7, let ubuntu automagically handle partitions.
[11:05] <ObrienDave> oooo, is there a password floating around now? ;P
[11:05] <SaulMecanus> potatoooooooooooooo
[11:05] <Rory> ObrienDave: Yes but nothing useful to anybody in here
[11:05] <dragon7> cfhowlett but i want to manually do it
[11:05] <ObrienDave> darn ;))
[11:06] <Potato81> hey
[11:06] <Potato81> saullllllllll
[11:06] <SaulMecanus> Why you smoke weed every day???
[11:06] <cfhowlett> dragon7, OK: advice only:  set 10 gigs for /      set 2 x your RAM for swap   set the remainder in /home
[11:06] <SaulMecanus> Why???
[11:06] <SaulMecanus> e
[11:06] <SaulMecanus> e
[11:06] <FloodBot1> SaulMecanus: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:07] <Potato81> hbla por el correo que aqui me aburro
[11:07] <cfhowlett> !es|Potato81,
[11:07] <dragon7> cfhowlett: decided that 50 gb will be for /  and will set 2 gb for ram rest will be partitioned later
[11:07] <LjL> Potato81, SaulMecanus: este es un canal en inglés de Ubuntu. por favor, si quieren hablar uno con el otro, PM
[11:07] <SaulMecanus> what hapened with potato81????
[11:07] <SaulMecanus> q pasa con potato 81??
[11:07] <cfhowlett> dragon7, wasted space.
[11:08] <LjL> SaulMecanus: he left
[11:08] <dragon7> why cfhowlett?
[11:08] <cfhowlett> dragon7, I've got ubuntustudio and all the extras + the sputnik developer apps.  my / still doesn't go over 6.5 gigs
[11:09] <SaulMecanus> potato is my frend and he's a motherfucker
[11:09] <cfhowlett> dragon7, correction: 10 gigs
[11:09] <LjL> !ops | SaulMecanus
[11:09] <Myrtti> SaulMecanus: stop.
[11:09] <philinux> dragon7;~ same here my / is always set at 10 gig. currently using 5.5 gig
[11:09] <SaulMecanus> ok sorry
[11:10] <cfhowlett> !coc
[11:10] <Tm_T> SaulMecanus: please either stick on ubuntu support or please part, this is not a place for foul language or random chit chat
[11:10] <SaulMecanus> the name of potato81 is Julián and he is in my clasroom
[11:10] <Myrtti> SaulMecanus: great, but we're not interested.
[11:10] <LjL> SaulMecanus: i had guessed as much, but still, this is not the place for it
[11:11] <philinux> dragon7;~ however you need to watch for old kernels building up. I use conky to show disk usage as well as othe rstuff
[11:12] <SaulMecanus> xD ok  I leave of the chat
[11:12] <SaulMecanus> and sorry
[11:12] <SaulMecanus> bye
[11:12] <LjL> SaulMecanus: it's okay, but next time, remember you can /join #anything to talk with someone else, or just /query name
[11:12] <SaulMecanus> ok thanks
[11:12] <SaulMecanus> byeeee
[11:13] <Kartagis> how to update `which` path?
[11:13] <Rory> !path
[11:14] <theadmin> That factoid is a bit broken.
[11:15] <Rory> theadmin: That factionoid is That factoid is a bit broken
[11:15] <Rory> I've noticed a few out-of-date or incorrect factoids actually, who is in charge of that stuff?
[11:15] <theadmin> Rory: The ops here are, you can send modification requests for those
[11:15] <theadmin> !path is <reply>The $PATH variable tells the shell where to look for the commands you tell it to run. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#File-location_related_variables
[11:16] <theadmin> Rory: ^ like that
[11:16] <Rory> Oh, very nice, thanks theadmin
[11:17] <llutz> Kartagis: if you have single commands showing wrong pathes, use "hash -d <cmd>"
[11:18] <theadmin> llutz: What's that do? "man hash" shows me a manual for some C functions.
[11:19] <llutz> theadmin: update the actual hash-table for that <cmd>
[11:19] <philinux> Kartagis;~ what are you trying to do?
[11:20] <WhatElse> hi guys
[11:20] <WhatElse> I can't get ubuntu working, I always had (after installation): "BUG: soft lookup CPU#0 stuck for 23s!"
[11:21] <llutz> theadmin: shell builtin, "help hash" not "man hash"
[11:21] <WhatElse> I tried ubuntu 13.04, 13.10 and 14.04 (I thought it could be a kernel problem)
[11:21] <theadmin> llutz: Ah.
[11:21] <Kartagis> philinux: I have added an autocomplete script to /etc/bash_completion.d/ but when I login, I get "x not found in <$PATH>"
[11:24] <dragon7> cfhowlett: had ubuntu installed previously and had separated 50gb for /
[11:25] <cfhowlett> dragon7, your box, your choice.
[11:26] <dragon7> cfhowlett: can't we extend /home later
[11:27] <cfhowlett> dragon7, sure.  PITA but, sure.  again: I've got WAY more than the standard ubuntu install, and I've yet to crack 10 G in /     but YMMV .  Go for it.
[11:28] <theadmin> dragon7: You can, yes, but generally /home is what takes up most of your disk space. I have a ton of programs installed and all, yet my / is only 8G.
[11:28] <Church> 10G? no problems. once you separate /home
[11:28] <theadmin> dragon7: 20GB is more than enough for it.
[11:28] <theadmin> 50 is overkill
[11:28] <cfhowlett> dragon7, maybe that's where the confusion is setting in.
[11:29] <Church> pitty ubuntu doesn't have lvm in native installer easy to use gui
[11:29] <cfhowlett> dragon7, the filesystem itself shouldn't run more than about 10 G on a standard install.  the rest can be applied to /home
[11:29] <dragon7> cfhowlett: but I have 17/50 gb occupied atleast gparted says so
[11:29] <Gritstone> mine is 2Tb.
[11:29] <theadmin> dragon7: But is /home on a separate partition?
[11:29] <cfhowlett> dragon7, wait.  YOU said this HDD was for ubuntu only?
[11:29] <WhatElse> I can't get ubuntu working, I always had (after installation): "BUG: soft lookup CPU#0 stuck for 23s!". I tried ubuntu 13.04, 13.10 and 14.04 (I thought it could be a kernel problem)
[11:29] <dragon7> yes
[11:30] <cfhowlett> dragon7, and did you put /home in it's OWN partition?
[11:30] <Gritstone> exit
[11:30]  * cfhowlett bets no it's not.
[11:30] <dragon7> cfhowlett what i did was seperated 50gb for / and 2gb for swap
[11:31] <dragon7> then installed
[11:32] <llutz> what is a "separated /"?
[11:32] <cfhowlett> dragon7,  pretty much NOT what I suggested ... but your box.  not like it won't work, you just have wasted space.
[11:33] <philinux> dragon7;~ is your home within root or on a separate partition
[11:33] <cfhowlett> dragon7, and you can always repartition if you want.
[11:33] <dragon7> philinux in the same partition of 50 gb
[11:33] <ActionPa1snip> WhatElse: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1757773
[11:35] <cfhowlett> dragon7, so you know: the reason why /home partition is recommended is so you can reinstall without risking your data.
[11:35] <Dean_> Hello, I have an SSD disk that had Windows OS installed but for some reason it fails during launch. I've connected the disk through USB to a 12.04 pc in order to see if I can peak inside the disk but to no success. Any hints how can I at least save the files inside?
[11:36] <dragon7> cfhowlett: that means i should partition /home as separate and "/" as separate partitions?
[11:36] <cfhowlett> dragon7, that's how I do it.
[11:36] <dragon7> cfhowlett: do i have to mount the partition for /home every time
[11:37] <dragon7> if i did above thing
[11:37] <cfhowlett> dragon7, it'll mount automatically
[11:37] <cfhowlett> !home
[11:39] <dragon7> cfhowlett okay got that but let's say I separated 20gb for "/" and rest for "/home" then I can partition "/home" later right?
[11:39] <philinux> cfhowlett;~ i've moved away from sep home I now have a data partition instead
[11:39] <cfhowlett> dragon7, yes you can always repart later.
[11:39] <cfhowlett> philinux, efi/mbr?
[11:40] <philinux> cfhowlett;~ no efi here
[11:41] <dragon7> cfhowlett: keeping /home in separate partition means i won't lose the data even if i switch to other distros right?
[11:42] <cfhowlett> philinux, have had /home since 2010 and since I only clean install LTS: I don't actually get much practice. The 2010 partition table is still in place.
[11:42] <WhatElse> ActionPa1snip, it didn't help me, I tried variuos kernel version :/
[11:42] <brayn> Morning. The power went out and now I can't connect to the internet (wired and wireless). I've tried rebooting, also the internet works using a live CD. Any ideas why?
[11:43] <brayn> I'm using 13.10
[11:43] <WhatElse> ActionPa1snip, if you remember yesterday I have some random problem, someone suggested me to reset bios and after it never worked
[11:43] <philinux> cfhowlett;~ I had same for years too. but i reinstall new version every 6 months so decided to format home and start afresh but with data partition for non os stuff
[11:45] <philinux> cfhowlett;~ I just backup the essential config files like xchat FF evolution you know
[11:45] <brayn> I've tried restarting networking and removing my MAC from the router, but no success
[11:45] <cfhowlett> dragon7, correct ... although we'd rather see you commit to a *buntu distro.
[11:45] <cfhowlett> philinux, nice.
[11:45] <vats_monroe> hi there guys, ireally need some help here, i messed up Ubuntu really bad and now every time i try to start it up i get an error telling me that i have graphics problem and then i just get a black screen, i have to be honest i tried to change the name of my computer using gksudo and i think that is way i messed it up, i know im not supposed to use that command but i really wanted to change it, im running windows 8 right now, so any advice on how to fix
[11:46] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset
[11:46] <theadmin> vats_monroe: Get to the command line (via recovery mode) and remove your xorg.conf. To change the name of your computer, you need to update /etc/hostname
[11:47] <brayn> It must be Ubuntu since it worked on the Live CD, so the netwrok is fine
[11:47] <vats_monroe> theadmin: once im in the recovery screen do you know which option i have to use theres like 8 of them, sorry new to linux :)
[11:48] <theadmin> vats_monroe: You choose the "root" option (root shell) and then you need to remount your fs read-write and remove that file, so as follows: mount -o rewrite,rw / && rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:48] <theadmin> vats_monroe: And then you can echo "your_new_hostname" > /etc/hostname
[11:48] <theadmin> vats_monroe: Followed by "reboot".
[11:50] <ActionPa1snip> theadmin: probably better to rename, less destructive
[11:51] <vats_monroe> theadmin: ok ill give it a shot ill be back in a few and let you know what happened hope it works out well anything else i need to know? :S
[11:51] <theadmin> ActionPa1snip: Eh. I suppose that makes sense.
[11:52] <theadmin> vats_monroe: As ActionPa1snip said, it might be best to move that file elsewhere instead of removing, such as mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.hamster
[11:54] <vats_monroe> theadmin: Ok, yeah i might up deleting a whole bunch of stuff with rm its happened to me before, rm is so picky with syntax LOL
[11:54] <vats_monroe> ok guys thanks for the heads up ill give it a shot unless i end up shooting myself on the foot
[11:55] <WhatElse> I can't get ubuntu working, I always had (after installation): "BUG: soft lookup CPU#0 stuck for 23s!" <-- after a lot of restarting, I have a working session, what can i try now?
[11:56] <WhatElse> current Kernel is: 3.12.0-4
[11:56] <brayn> I'm thinking of re-installing ubuntu without format. Do you have any other suggestion? thanks
[11:57] <Rory> WhatElse: Can you please paste the output from the "dmesg" and "lsmod" commands?
[11:57] <Rory> !paste | WhatElse
[11:58] <aaronmehar> whats the name of the X conf that defines my screen settings? Id like to take a look
[11:59] <Rory> aaronmehar: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:59] <DJones> !xorgconf | aaronmehar
[11:59] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ you may not have that file though
[11:59] <aaronmehar> I dont have it
[11:59] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ yep same here
[12:00] <DJones> aaronmehar: Quite often its no longer required now
[12:00] <aaronmehar> Its just I was trying 3 screens on my 8400GS cards and it laggy like a bitch
[12:00] <aaronmehar> I test with a HD5450 and all 3 screen working amazingly
[12:01] <WhatElse> Rory, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6483990
[12:01] <Rory> aaronmehar: Sounds like you might need a graphics driver from the Additional Drivers program (a tab in Software Sources)
[12:01] <aaronmehar> I thought Ubuntu may have generated the file but I could find it
[12:01] <aaronmehar> Rory: Why? All 3 are working great
[12:02] <WhatElse> Rory, see line 906
[12:02] <aaronmehar> although this card is meant to be a dual head with 1 digi clock so I am confunded on how its working
[12:02] <WhatElse> Rory, and you can search for: "BUG: soft lookup", you'll find 4 entries :/
[12:07] <dragon7> cfhowlett: so i should give ~10gb to "/" , 2gb for swap and rest for "/home"
[12:09] <imdea>  Hi one question, I have an ubuntu machine with openssh installed and there is one user that I want to connect as, using ssh keys, I have generated the key and put the public key under ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file for that user and I have in my user's ~/.ssh directory the private key, however when I try to connect from the same machine using: ssh <user>@<host> I'm getting a Permission denied (publickey). If I do it from another machine, then it works, any ideas?
[12:10] <imdea> In the auth.log file I'm getting: sshd[24710]: Connection closed by <IP_ADDRESS> [preauth]
[12:12] <llutz> imdea: what are the permissions of ~/.ssh/*  make sure those dir/files are user-owned and not writable by anybody else
[12:13] <imdea> llutz: this is the output of ssh -v http://pastebin.com/ER5gL0Lx
[12:14] <llutz> imdea: your key is a (openssl) pem-key?
[12:14] <vats_monroe> the admin: nope didnt work, read only system
[12:14] <imdea> llutz, yes
[12:14] <vats_monroe> theadmin:couldnt remove, or change it
[12:15] <imdea> llutz, sorry no
[12:15] <imdea> llutz, I generated it with openssh
[12:15] <vats_monroe> ok looks like he left
[12:16] <philinux> dragon7;~ thats what I used to have
[12:17] <ActionPa1snip> imdea: chmod -R 600 ~/.ssh   or may be:  chmod 600 -R ~/.ssh
[12:17] <dragon7> philinux: if wine is installed where would that be installed on "/" or /home
[12:18] <dragon7> i mean installed programs
[12:18] <imdea> ActionPa1snip, same thing, still doesn't work
[12:18] <philinux> dragon7;~ wine itself gets installed in / all the other stuff like the virtual c drive go in home
[12:19] <vats_monroe> hi there guys im having a big problem i need some help, my ubuntu just crashed bigtime im getting this message "Your screen, graphics card and input device settings could not be detected correctly, you will need to configure these yourself", so I was getting some help on this and the suggestion was to go in to the root shell and mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.hamster, two things happened here, first i dont have that file and the one i have
[12:20] <dragon7> that means softwares are installed in / and user data reside in /home right philinux?
[12:20] <philinux> dragon7;~ yep but 10 gig is more than enough for /
[12:21] <WhatElse> almost all time my ubuntu doesn't start, and giva a : "BUG: soft lookup CPU# stuck" , http://paste.ubuntu.com/6483990 , thank you for your help
[12:21] <dragon7> was thinking of 15gb earlier ;) *experience with windows*
[12:22] <philinux> dragon7;~ as long as /home is sep partition
[12:22] <vats_monroe> anyone?
[12:22] <cfhowlett> !patience|vats_monroe,
[12:23] <vats_monroe> sorry :(
[12:23] <philinux> dragon7;~ ubuntu linux is not windows
[12:24] <aaronmehar> my / partition is 7G... /home 100G and /VMs 500G
[12:25] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ just watch out for kernels building up they can cause root to be short of space eventually
[12:25] <aaronmehar> its a 2TB drive :-)
[12:26] <dragon7> philinux what does kernel building up mean?
[12:26] <cfhowlett> aaronmehar, yeah, but kernels WILL stack in your /boot
[12:26] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ thats irrelevant really all kernels go in root
[12:26] <aaronmehar> plus I have on my list to du run once a night and emailing me the results so I see disk space climbing
[12:26] <cfhowlett> dragon7, just means you need to do some housecleaning from time to time
[12:26] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ good plan
[12:27] <aaronmehar> besides.. how many kernels will I really have.. say know I have 3 versions on 12.04
[12:27] <dragon7> cfhowlett still confused, do you mean defragmenting hard disk o.O
[12:27] <imdea> any ideas?
[12:27] <rymate> ive installed and setup a unity-2d remote desktop on 12.04 ubuntu
[12:27] <philinux> dragon7;~ when a new kernel comes out it always goes in /boot a few old ones can take up gigs of space - housekeeping to remove them now and again is all thats needed
[12:27] <cfhowlett> dragon7,  no and you don't need to worry on a new install.  relax and enjoy the *buntu
[12:28] <rymate> however the title bar is showing for maximised windows
[12:28] <rymate> how do i hide it?
[12:28] <cfhowlett> dragon7, and linux doesn't do "defrag" ... windows it ain't.
[12:30] <vats_monroe> ok guys just to let you know im goin to try the following and see if it works, im posting it if your interested in whats happening to me http://askubuntu.com/questions/141606/how-to-fix-the-system-is-running-in-low-graphics-mode-error, and again im sorry if i seemed impatient :)
[12:30] <dragon7> okay guys here's what i'm doing 10gb for /, 2gb swap space and rest for /home and see you on other side of installation
[12:30] <cfhowlett> dragon7, :)
[12:31] <aaronmehar> dragon7 How much RAM do you have?
[12:31] <resolute> is there anyone here who can help me with autoconf?
[12:31] <streulma> has someone experiences with Ubuntu on a Macbook Pro Retina ?
[12:31] <dragon7> 4gb aaronmehar
[12:31] <wjx> Hi, anyone knows how to compile 'gnome-control-center' ?
[12:31] <cfhowlett> !mac|streulma,
[12:31] <aaronmehar> cool... I prefer to have swap set to RAM+2
[12:31] <wjx> ./configure gives config.status: error: cannot find input file: `panels/bluetooth/bluetooth-properties.desktop.in.in'
[12:31] <aaronmehar> how much drive space do you have?
[12:31] <cfhowlett> !whoo
[12:32] <cfhowlett> !who
[12:32] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ ram + 2 is old hat now
[12:33] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ thats from the old days of low ram machines. for swap see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[12:33] <aaronmehar> philinux: really? I think ram x2 was old... whats the new "How much swap" formula?
[12:33] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ me i have 2 gig ram so swap is 2. Thats because of suspend needs
[12:34] <aaronmehar> hmm I uselly state RAM+2 but I myself have 4G here and 10G on one my desktops at home
[12:35] <aaronmehar> but that is running an openvz server + has low ram and low disk so the swap gets used
[12:35] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ the swapfaq is really good
[12:35] <aaronmehar> I have clients  (hosting company) that have way more 10G being used
[12:35] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ thats a diff kettle of fish i see
[12:35] <aaronmehar> philinux: i know what swap is / used / how to add etc
[12:36] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ no worries then
[12:36] <aaronmehar> I just had realised RAM +2 wasnt being used  :) I will read the part on "How Much swap do I need"
[12:37] <aaronmehar> as its different needs to a server environment
[12:37] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ yep thats the bit
[12:38] <Kartagis> anybody replied to me withoug highlighting? I may not have notices
[12:38] <philinux> aaronmehar;~ in fact that bit looks a bit dated now too as most newer machines have huge drives
[12:39] <aaronmehar> Ive never support Desktops so all my knowledge and XP are mainly in CentOS, RedHat and small bits of Ubuntu Server so Ubunut Desktop is different, I am here to learn and help :)
[12:39] <sanji> helooo
[12:39] <aaronmehar> I also have tux tattooed to my arm :D
[12:39] <sanji> really??
[12:39] <aaronmehar> sanji: yep and some binary and 802.11 and 802.3
[12:40] <aaronmehar> Im getting "cat /dev/random > life | sort" added soon
[12:40] <sanji> oh

[12:51] <somsip> SNK3: what's the issue?
[12:52] <gordonjcp> SNK3: newbs who equate tiny pixelly grey-on-grey text and having to hand-edit huge config files with "expert", possibly
[12:52] <SNK3> @gordonjcp lol
[12:52] <saifulrizwan_> lol
[12:52]  * cfhowlett thinks: hmmm.  no bias evident in that statement.
[12:52] <SNK3> somsip: I just wanted people opinion

[12:53] <SNK3> -_-
[12:53] <SNK3> people's *
[12:53] <dragon7> philinux: sorry for this but which "type of new partition" should i use for /, swap and home?
[12:54] <BluesKaj> ext4. but it's not new , dragon7
[12:55] <dragon7> BluesKaj: not that primary or logical
[12:56] <BluesKaj> dragon7 ?
[12:56] <Myrtti> dragon7: swap is always swap
[12:57] <vats_monroe> im back again guys and it didnt work
[12:57] <dragon7> BluesKaj: which one should i choose for swap: primary or logical?
[12:57] <Trudko> Guys  I want to run ubuntu from usb for one day. I am going on hackaton so I need to develop a bit some android, maybe some webserver and I do need to access internet. I cant install ubuntu on laptop it self(it is borred for one day) Should It work?
[12:57] <Trudko> I will have some average usb 2.0 stick with
[12:57] <BluesKaj> swap is always primary afaik, dragon7
[12:58] <dragon7> okay, but what should i do with "/home", BluesKaj?
[12:58] <vats_monroe> so ill just make it simple, since i just installed ubuntu yesterday ill try and do a reinstall from the recovery shell, however Im getting the following message "Read Only System" thus I cant run sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop because im gettin Not using locking..... so can you help me with this
[12:59] <MajSlayer> hello, any recommendations on a good forum software that's open source? checked out phpBB, but eh, makes me want to spend $$ on vBulletin.. sadly..
[12:59] <MajSlayer> was running v4 and well it wont work with new LAMP install..
[12:59] <BluesKaj> you could create a swap file rather than a partition, after installing dragon7 , they work almost as well
[13:00] <BluesKaj> dragon7. you haven't explalned your partition table so it's difficult to answer
[13:02] <wjx> MajSlayer: what about http://www.discourse.org/
[13:02] <dragon7> okay wait BluesKaj:
[13:02] <ActionPa1snip> MajSlayer: http://simplemachines.org/
[13:02] <MajSlayer> thanks guys
[13:02] <ActionPa1snip> MajSlayer: punbb
[13:02] <MajSlayer> yeah mainly just need something that will at least support adsense ads
[13:02] <ActionPa1snip> MajSlayer: http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/03/how-to-install-latest-version-of-mybb.html
[13:04] <MajSlayer> yeah mybb looks pretty nice, does it support ads?
[13:05] <vats_monroe> Help Please...
[13:06] <MajSlayer> guess i could always add the adsense code myself..
[13:07] <jnhghy> how can I get in terminal the version number of my ubuntu? like "12.04" or other version number?
[13:07] <haagch> Hi, I have libvirt on ubuntu 12.04. With virt-manager I tried adding an iso to a windows 2012 vm, but instead canceled and quit virt-manager. Now I can't connect to libvirt neither with virt-manager nor with virsh directly. it just hangs there with no output, even with --debug=4 and libvirt stopped logging to /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log too... last messages were qemuDomainObjBeginJobInternal:789 : Timed out during operation: cannot
[13:08] <k1l_> jnhghy: "lsb_release -r"   or -a for all output
[13:08] <jnhghy> thanks k1l_
[13:08] <dragon7> BluesKaj: here's what i have done or planning to do: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484254/
[13:08] <haagch> reload libvirt-bin and restart libvirt-bin of course don't help
[13:08] <MajSlayer> anyhow thanks for the suggestions guys
[13:09] <MajSlayer> i know it was off topic, but eh, wasn't sure where else to go, did do some googlin' but eh
[13:09] <MajSlayer> everything leads to phpBB
[13:11] <dry[1]> hi. I have new Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Is there any change in permissions that don't allow other files to access subdirectories? I haven't change anything and my php code stopped working on new ubuntu. Description: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2190292
[13:12] <Church> dry: i beleave you are talking about reinstall, where you mounted some dir/fs with files from old install?
[13:13] <Church> maybe your numeric UID/GID changed while textual names for user/group were recreated like old?
[13:15] <BluesKaj> dragon7. do you have any other OS's like windows or other linux installed on the the hdd, if not then /home should be primary too
[13:15] <Foxhoundz> why do fonts on Ubuntu or any other Linux distro look distorted, scaling improperly and bolded improperly?
[13:15] <Foxhoundz> Windows 7 renders fonts in a crip, clean manner
[13:15] <Nach0z> Foxhoundz: chances are your graphics drivers are borked
[13:15] <dragon7> no i don't have Windows but i'm reinstalling Ubuntu13.10
[13:15] <cfhowlett> Foxhoundz, opinion, not fact.  but it does suggest you might wish to see your GPU
[13:16] <cfhowlett> or your settings
[13:16] <Nach0z> ^^this too
[13:16] <dragon7> no i don't have Windows but i'm reinstalling Ubuntu13.10 BluesKaj
[13:16] <dry[1]> Church: My files are mounted somewhere else, but they are working when I change permissions. UID and GID are the same as before.
[13:16] <Foxhoundz> cfhowlett: it is fact. I took a screenshot of a Windows 7 and Ubuntu chrome windows
[13:16] <Nach0z> I've always had very clean font rendering in linux once I've updated the graphics drivers appropriately
[13:16] <Foxhoundz> and the fonts are noticeably different
[13:16] <Foxhoundz> And this has nothing to do with my GPU
[13:16] <Foxhoundz> as it's using the open source intel drivers
[13:16] <cfhowlett> Foxhoundz, if your prefer windows, use that, please.
[13:16] <vats_monroe> Im trying not to be repetitive sorry if its anoying.. I have a problem, I changed the Host name on ubuntu and all hell broke loose, after i changed it I rebooted as instructed, however, once it started i got this message "Your Screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly, you will now need to configure these yourself", a guy in this chatroom try to help me out and told me to run the root shell in recovery mode and tr
[13:17] <Foxhoundz> What are you even talking about, cfhowlett
[13:17] <Foxhoundz> where, pray tell, did I prefer windows?
[13:17] <Foxhoundz> I was trying to find out why fonts were rendered incorrectly in Ubuntu
[13:17] <Foxhoundz> when compared to Windows 7
[13:17] <Ben64> different != incorrect
[13:17] <designbybeck> Foxhoundz, what version of Ubuntu?
[13:18] <Foxhoundz> it's incorrect. The widths of the fonts are wrong compared to the reference screenshots released by Microsoft
[13:18] <Ben64> why should ubuntu follow microsoft's guidelines?
[13:19] <haagch> hm, invoking service libvirt-bin restart again helped
[13:19] <Foxhoundz> 13.10
[13:19] <haagch> enterprise grade software...
[13:20] <designbybeck> Foxhoundz,  have you tried something like Unity Tweak Tool? and set your fonts Hinting to Full ?
[13:20] <philinux> Foxhoundz;~ I prefer the rendering in ubuntu to win 7 . It's a matter of preference
[13:20] <Church> dry: then maybe, if you mentioned php, there was something set with webserver .htaccess or alike config files different in new install then in old one?
[13:20] <BluesKaj> dragon7. then  your 13.10 install should be on an exteneded logical partition
[13:21] <dragon7> BluesKaj: i'm wiping out the 13.10
[13:22] <BluesKaj> dragon7. why ?
[13:24] <ActionPa1snip> BluesKaj: lack of unity 2d :)
[13:24] <dragon7> BluesKaj: reinstalling
[13:27] <BluesKaj> dragon7. you can have / and /home  as primaries for 2 OSs then just create a swap file in each of those OSs , that way you get around the 4 primaries without having to fool with logicals
[13:28] <dragon7> BluesKaj: you mean not creating swap space??
[13:28] <BluesKaj> yes
[13:29] <BluesKaj> swap partitions are hardly needed anymore unless you're running a laptop with sleep which requires it
[13:29] <BluesKaj> dragon7.^
[13:30] <Trudko> Guys  I want to run ubuntu from usb for one day. I am going on hackaton so I need to develop a bit some android, maybe some webserver and I do need to access internet. I cant install ubuntu on laptop it self(it is borred for one day) Should It work?
[13:30] <dragon7> i use sleep sometimes BluesKaj
[13:30] <BluesKaj> dragon7. is this a laptop ?
[13:30] <ActionPa1snip> Trudko: yes, just use a big persistance and you can install applications to the USB stick
[13:31] <niee> #join #gentoo
[13:31] <Trudko> ActionPa1snip: what do you mean by big persistance_
[13:31] <niee> opss sorry
[13:31] <BluesKaj> ok then , you have a decision to make , dragon7
[13:32] <ActionPa1snip> Trudko: if you use unetbootin to put the install iso on usb you can set a persistance data store so that changes stick
[13:32] <dragon7> argh confusion confusion
[13:32] <ActionPa1snip> Trudko: alternatively you can install to the USB as if it were a 'normal' harddrive and it will work as a 'normal' harddrive.
[13:33] <DannyButterman> Hi there, may someone help me install ubuntu 12.04 on RAID 0 with the alternate CD ? I've spent my morning on it to no avail
[13:33] <Trudko> ActionPa1snip: I see thank you
[13:35] <max____> hi, i have too many time failed to update my ubuntu. i googled a lot but not found the solution. i'm wondering if someone meet these kinds of situation. here's its updating output (http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484334/). any help would be appreciate.
[13:35] <cartusia> I upgraded from Raring to Saucy and it disabled my graphics card, now when I want to open any program which requires graphics it won't allow me. Is their a quick fix to this, it shows that I am using an alternative driver.
[13:35] <G[zero]D> Hi all, there are expert using "expect" ?
[13:35] <cartusia> when I type fglrxinfo it does not give me the specs back
[13:37] <G[zero]D> Hi all, there are expert using "expect" ?
[13:38] <cartusia> max____, I had the same problem what worked for me was to install xfce
[13:38] <BluesKaj> !patience |G[zero]D.
[13:38] <cartusia> whatever libraries I was missing it helped.
[13:38] <max____> yep, i use xfce desktop. cartusia
[13:39] <max____> i have already about two months not updating my ubuntu 12.10.
[13:40] <G[zero]D> BluesKaj, some people are joined, maybe an expert with expect :D
[13:40] <max____> cartusia, what made you fix it?
[13:40] <ubuntuaddicted> i am running a Win7 guest within VirtualBox 9Xubuntu 12.04.3) host. I was installing software within Win7 and the Vm froze. I had to force quit the VM and force quit Vbox. Now when I click on Vbox icon nothing happens
[13:40] <BluesKaj> G[zero]D. wait for 10 mins then asl again , not every 30 secs
[13:40] <glitsj16> max____: the 'sudo apt-get update' paste looks good, so that part of the ubuntu 'update' routine is ok .. 'sudo apt-get upgrade' does the actual downloading and installing part .. just wondering  what that command gives you when run from terminal
[13:41] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: Are you sure the process is killed ?
[13:41] <cartusia> max____, well with me it was some library for sure, that would give me errors. But I dont know what might be your problem, I just switched to KDE.
[13:41] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, I've since logged out and back in, don't all running process's get killed when you log out?
[13:42] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: yea they do
[13:42] <max____> glitsj16,  will `upgrade' action upgrade my os to 13.10? i don't want to do that.
[13:42] <DannyButterman> Please raid 0 install someone ?
[13:42] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: is the application as a whole not launching or just that particular os ?
[13:42] <max____> cartusia, KDE is nice, too.
[13:42] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, i've even tried running virtualbox from the terminal to check its output but nothing is being output besides this Error opening file for reading: Permission denied
[13:43] <glitsj16> max____: no that's another command, a regular 'update' routine on ubuntu involves 2 parts, you seem to have done only the first one
[13:43] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, the Virtualbox 4.3.2 application as a whole
[13:45] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: are u a member of the groups vboxusers, lp and users ?
[13:45] <max____> ahha, i never knew. regular package updating used to in GUI manner. glitsj16
[13:45] <LayAnotherBlock> hey ubuntu community. I have a question
[13:45] <cfhowlett> LayAnotherBlock, ask
[13:45] <max____> thanks for your reminding. glitsj16
[13:45] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, i am in vboxusers, not the others BUT i was running the win7 Vbox just fine yesterday before the crash
[13:46] <glitsj16> max____: that's okay, we all had to learn the hard way :)
[13:46] <LayAnotherBlock> Ok, If i use the .iso i just downloaded as a virtual CD in VirtualBox, will it work?
[13:46] <G[zero]D> BluesKaj, I have paid much money for your support.. XD BTW, ok, sorry man
[13:46] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: I have heard of other people having these problems... one sec lemme dig up a link
[13:46] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1940938
[13:46] <max____> glitsj16, i almost want to switch my ubuntu to other distribution, which will be really pain.
[13:46] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, i just added myself to those other groups. let me log out and back in. be right back
[13:46] <cfhowlett> LayAnotherBlock, it will work, yes
[13:47] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, lol, i was just reading that thread from a google search. i'll be right bacl
[13:47] <DannyButterman> I can't install Ubuntu 12.04 64 on RAID 0 using alternate CD. Please I'm looking for a helping hand
[13:47] <LayAnotherBlock> ok. Time to use ubuntu 12.04 in Windows 8
[13:47] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: sure
[13:50] <glitsj16> max____: indeed, things can get confusing with the terminology used i agree (sudo apt-get update refreshes your packages list with what's in the repo's, sudo apt-get upgrade does the actual installing as a reminder) .. if you didn't do that for 2 months you could get quite some packages that are updateable
[13:50] <cfhowlett> max____, don't feel bad.  I ran apt-get update for years before I learned that it wasn't doing any upgrading
[13:50] <kyloth> hello. im using an external hardrive to run ubuntu via wubi installer, upon booting i received a dev sda error code i was wondering if someone could hyperlink me a hardware diagnostic tool to see if my buffers are failing on my HDD
[13:51] <max____> glitsj16, sorry to bother you again. do you know how to select only important package to update in command line, such as security package.
[13:52] <kyloth> ive encountered similar errors before and it was a failing buffer error so i wanted to see if there was a windows hardware diagnostic tool i could use on this partition to check my HDD for buffer errors
[13:52] <max____> glitsj16, my GUI update reminder seems not working, so ...
[13:52] <kyloth> glistj16 you might consider download the packages manually one by one as opposed to doing a full update download
[13:52] <max____> cfhowlett, haha~
[13:52] <glitsj16> max____: no bother, i use synaptic as GUI mostly myself, that gives you more control over what you want to upgrade ..
[13:53] <kyloth> i was gonna say synaptic sounds like what you need but then i read what you jusut said
[13:53] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, that wasn't it. still can't launch Vbox, even as root it won't launch
[13:53] <max____> cfhowlett, thanks for sharing your story of ubuntu update.
[13:53] <glitsj16> kyloth: thanks, it's max____ who needs some help, no worries
[13:54] <max____> thanks, kyloth
[13:54] <glitsj16> max____: are you using software-center as GUI?
[13:54] <kyloth> i just need a link to a decent hardware diagnostics tool for windows to see if the buffers on my external HDD are failing or if my wubi install was botched from bad download
[13:54] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: who's the owner of the file ?
[13:55] <max____> it used to has an auto updating reminder, glitsj16
[13:55] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, trying to reinstall it results in Ubuntu Software Center telling me it's still running
[13:55] <max____> but it's not, now.
[13:55] <cfhowlett> kyloth, windows diagnostic tool?  best to ask #windows maybe?
[13:55] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, so i guess maybe it survived a log out?  I am going to restart my entire machine to get a clean slate. be right back
[13:55] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: Try running ps -ef |grep -i vbox
[13:56] <SNK3> instead of restarting
[13:56] <kyloth> well i came hgere because i recived a dev sda error code (actually dev SDC but only cuz its external drive :Z)
[13:56] <glitsj16> max____: ah that sounds like update-manager then, any error messages when you run that from terminal?
[13:56] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, returns this http://pastebin.com/e66VHQeh
[13:56] <kyloth> and when connected to my windows partiiton my external HDD has no problems writing and deleting data to and from it
[13:57] <kyloth> but my wubi install failed me twice with two different wubi installer downloads
[13:57] <max____> `update-manager'? glitsj16
[13:57] <max____> not found it, yet.
[13:57] <pzn> I have a PC with webcam, microphone and speakers. I'd like to "emulate" it as if it were an IP camera. is there any ubuntu package for that?
[13:58] <max____> i only mention `update-software-center'
[13:58] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, goign to go in a private message window with you if that's ok
[13:58] <SNK3> ubuntuaddicted: no probs
[13:58] <yhusha> I have about 700 files which may or may not contain key words in the file names that need to be recursively renamed while maintaining the other parts of file names..
[13:59] <glitsj16> max____: okay that could be, been a while since i used xubuntu, try that and see if you get errors
[14:00] <max____> it seems no error
[14:00] <max____> max@max-K43SV:squashfs$ sudo update-software-center
[14:00] <max____> Updating software catalog...this may take a moment.
[14:00] <max____> INFO:softwarecenter.db.pkginfo_impl.aptcache:aptcache.open()
[14:00] <max____> Software catalog update was successful.
[14:00] <FloodBot1> max____: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:00] <yhusha> ie file name coin01 coin02 coinetc to shekel01 shekel02 shekeletc
[14:00] <monkeyjuice> pzn: take a look at motion
[14:01] <pzn> monkeyjuice, thanks
[14:01] <glitsj16> max____: looks good then, what's not working exactly?
[14:01] <LayAnotherBlock> I don't really know yet: Which desktop environment does Ubuntu 12.04 run?
[14:01] <max____> here's the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484435/
[14:02] <yhusha> the file names may or may not be preceeded with other characters ie. 1stcoinfile 2ndcoinfile should become 1stshekelfile 2ndshekelfile etc.. directory names as well.
[14:02] <lapt0p> Where do i find the option to change the keyboard keys combination for switching keyboard layouts?
[14:02] <Pici> yhusha: take a look at the manpage for 'rename'
[14:03] <glitsj16> max____: besides the first try you forgot sudo that all looks normal
[14:03] <lapt0p> Where do i find the option to change the keyboard keys combination for switching keyboard layouts?
[14:03] <geirha> yhusha: find . -depth -type f -name "*coin*" -execdir prename -n 's/coin/shekel/' {} +
[14:03] <yhusha> have done so man rename is very short
[14:03] <yhusha> nice appreciate it
[14:03] <geirha> yhusha: note the -n means dry-run, so it won't actually rename
[14:03] <glitsj16> max____: did you try the 'sudo apt-get upgrade' command yet?
[14:04] <yhusha> ok.. so remove the -n for rename?
[14:04] <max____> glitsj16, is `update-software-center' the update manger?
[14:04] <geirha> yhusha: Run it with -n first, then remove the -n and run it again if the output looks right
[14:04] <max____> while upgrade, it said "E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f."
[14:04] <lapt0p> Where do i find the option to change the keyboard keys combination for switching keyboard layouts?
[14:04] <yhusha> just what I was thinking..
[14:05] <max____> glitsj16, it seems working.
[14:05] <yhusha> appreciate it
[14:05] <glitsj16> max____: that's one possible interface to apt yes, okay :)
[14:05] <max____> only GUI update reminder is not working.
[14:06] <lapt0p> Where do i set the shortcut for switching keyboard layouts?
[14:07] <lapt0p> found it
[14:07] <glitsj16> max____: as you might have noticed, i'm not too familiar with that GUI .. we'll try to see what's the problem with that if you can pastebin the output of the command to start that from a terminal
[14:07] <SNK3> ill brb too
[14:08] <max____> glitsj16, i did it through `sudo apt-get -f install', upgrade got problem, then it hints me to do install to fix it.
[14:08] <glitsj16> max____: sounds okay yes, do what's advised
[14:09] <max____> glitsj16, thanks, i understood. GUI is more complicate that CLI..
[14:09] <glitsj16> :)
[14:09] <max____> btw, do you know which is synaptic command?
[14:09] <Rory> max____: "synaptic"
[14:09] <max____> se_synaptic?
[14:09] <glitsj16> max____: sudo apt-get install synaptic
[14:10] <max____> thanks, Rory and glitsj16 .
[14:10] <max____> i thought everyone have synaptic already.
[14:10] <wjx> I want to compile package 'gnome-control-center', but './configure' gives config.status: error: cannot find input file: `panels/bluetooth/bluetooth-properties.desktop.in.in', any suggestion?
[14:10] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, that was it, needed to reboot. Vbox opens now and im back in my VM
[14:11] <Rory> max____: It used to be included but I believe it was dropped around 12.04/12.10
[14:11] <ubuntuaddicted> SNK3, guess I should've tried the obvious before asking for help
[14:11] <LayAnotherBlock> One last question:
[14:11] <glitsj16> max____: no problem, i never understood taht decision personally, but at least you can simply install and start to use it
[14:11] <LayAnotherBlock> Is there still a downloadable version of Ubuntu with the GNOME 2 environment?
[14:12] <max____> oh, thanks for  reminding me.
[14:12] <Rory> LayAnotherBlock: No. There's Linux Mint with the Mate environment (a fork of gnome 2) but it is not ubuntu
[14:12] <max____> glitsj16, ubuntu 12.10 is the longest os i use until now.
[14:13] <ActionPa1snip> LayAnotherBlock: gnome2 is dead upstream, if you like the Gnome2 feel, use Xubuntu
[14:13] <compdoc> LayAnotherBlock, I install ubuntu server without the gui, then add Mate
[14:13] <glitsj16> max____: yes i saw that you're on quantal from one of your pastes
[14:13] <ActionPa1snip> compdoc: why not use minimal instead, you'll get the desktop kernel then
[14:14] <compdoc> because I need vnc or rdp
[14:14] <LayAnotherBlock> ok, i can deal with Unity
[14:14] <max____> glitsj16.  yes, the code "quantal".
[14:14] <glitsj16> max____: personally i wait to upgrade to 14.04 when that's stable, as that is a LTS
[14:14] <Rory> LayAnotherBlock: Look into Xubuntu or Lubuntu, they are the most similar to the "traditional" desktop
[14:14] <ActionPa1snip> compdoc: you can get that in the destop kernel..
[14:15] <LayAnotherBlock> I rather use the normal Ubuntu installations then to install others, makes it a complex process
[14:15] <max____> yeah, ubuntu 13.10 supports only for half a year.
[14:15] <max____> too short.
[14:15] <ActionPa1snip> max____: but you can upgrade in one jump to 14.04 which is LTS
[14:15] <compdoc> ActionPa1snip, I cant get vnc or rdp to work on the new dektop in 13.10
[14:15] <wjx> I want to compile package 'gnome-control-center', but './configure' gives config.status: error: cannot find input file: `panels/bluetooth/bluetooth-properties.desktop.in.in', any suggestion?
[14:16] <ActionPa1snip> compdoc: the desktop in Lubuntu is largely the same #pedantic :)
[14:16] <max____> ActionPa1snip, that's would be a really good new. thanks.
[14:17] <max____> oh, i misunderstand your meaning about 13.10.
[14:17] <max____> ActionPa1snip,
[14:17] <glitsj16> ActionPa1snip: max____ is on 12.10, i thought that can't do the jump to 14.04 in one go?
[14:17] <LayAnotherBlock> I have an ATI Radeon Display Driver. Will ubuntu use that in the VM?
[14:17] <cfhowlett> LayAnotherBlock, unclear.  the VM graphics driver is NOT the hardware GPU
[14:18] <ActionPa1snip> glitsj16: no you'd need to upgrade to 13.04 then to 13.10 then finally to 14.04
[14:18] <GuybrushThreepwo> I have an AMD Radeon HD 7660G Discrete-Class graphics card. I tried installing fglrx. The loading screen filled all 5 red dots and then froze. So I came back here for help. They had me purge that stuff and install xserver-xord-video-ati and xserver-xord-video-radeon. since I did that, instead of freezing at loading screen, the display shuts off completely.
[14:18] <max____> glitsj16, ActionPa1snip said though 13.10 supports only for 6 months, it takes advantage jump to 14.04 in one jump.
[14:18] <ActionPa1snip> glitsj16: the only time you can leapfrog releases is LTS to LTS (Precise to Trusty)
[14:18] <GuybrushThreepwo>  One guy told me to use dmesg. Here's that result when using the command prompt which loads after choosing failsafe graphics mode in recovery, then choosing run: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6483254/ <- Any advice tolet me get back on my ubuntu partition without clean install of it?
[14:18] <LayAnotherBlock> Ok. so it won't crash like it does when i install it on my PC with radeon? #The "Candy cane effect"
[14:18] <glitsj16> ActionPa1snip: thanks for confirming what i was thinking, confusion hit me there for a sec :)
[14:20] <ademoglu> guys anyone suggest html5 editor for ubuntu ?
[14:20] <Rory> ademoglu: gedit
[14:20] <ActionPa1snip> ademoglu: bluefish
[14:20] <Rory> !vim | ademoglu
[14:21] <ademoglu> actually i need like dreamweaver
[14:21] <Rory> !html | ademoglu
[14:21] <ActionPa1snip> ademoglu: bluefish is a WYSIWYG editor
[14:23] <emerald> anybody know stuff about carding?
[14:27] <GuybrushThreepwo> Is there a better place I should be asking for help?
[14:28] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: you are here since this morning asking about your issue
[14:28] <Rory> GuybrushThreepwo: You could have finished backing up and reinstalling by now :P
[14:28] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: this is the right place for ubuntu issues, but try to describe as clean as possible
[14:29] <GuybrushThreepwo> lotuspsychje: I don't know how cleaner to describe it. I can go into more detail about what I did and didn't do, but I need someone that's familiar with the issue in the first place.
[14:29] <aaronmehar> where do I reg my nick for freenode?
[14:29] <ubuntuaddicted> weird, now i can't get the USB devices working in my Win7 Vbox. and yes i am part of vboxusers, users, and lp groups.

[14:30] <hawa> i need a good fstab tutorial for beginner... can anybody give me a link???
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: best is to ask all in 1 line and then re-ask same issue once in a while
[14:30] <GuybrushThreepwo> AFAIK, xserver-xord-video-ati and xserver-xord-video-radeon is the current graphics driver stuff I have installed to the best of my knowledge, and it results in my loading my computer, but the display shutting off after a secouple seconts after the ubuntu load screen appears.
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> !fstab | hawa
[14:30] <ubuntuaddicted> hawa, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[14:31] <aaronmehar> lotuspsychje: Cheers
[14:31] <hawa> @ubottu i want to use it to mount the windows file systems at system start...
[14:31] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: did you try a recovery mode on a previous kernel= failsafeX ?
[14:31] <hawa> tnx...
[14:32] <GuybrushThreepwo> lotuspsychje: I'm a noob to linux, so I don't even know what that means.
[14:33] <max____> GuybrushThreepwo, it seems like ati driver issue.
[14:33] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: at boot hold shift and enter grub, then choose a previous kernel to boot into recoverymode and choose failsafeX from the list or package restore
[14:34] <LayAnotherBlock> In VirtualBox, How do i remove the virtual installation disc from the virtual machine?
[14:34] <tovarish> LayAnotherBlock, Host+d
[14:34] <LayAnotherBlock> ok
[14:34] <LayAnotherBlock> ty
[14:34] <GuybrushThreepwo> graphics failsafe ends up doing nothing. but after i use it, i can hit run, and it will load into command prompt mode
[14:34] <GuybrushThreepwo> thats what ive been using up until now to do commands
[14:35] <GuybrushThreepwo> I have not tried package restore yet
[14:35] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: package restore might take a while, but worth a try
[14:35] <LayAnotherBlock> ok? I'm now staring at a brown screen at startup
[14:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> lotuspsychje: I've never used package restore before.
[14:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> lotuspsychje: Is there something special I need to select after I choose it?
[14:36] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: i fixxed a guys laptop recently on 13.10 with package restore
[14:36] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: no just follow the install
[14:36] <GuybrushThreepwo> Alright
[14:37] <GuybrushThreepwo> How long approx do you think it'll take to run?
[14:37] <GuybrushThreepwo> something like 20-30 minutes? or hours?
[14:38] <lotuspsychje> GuybrushThreepwo: might be an hour
[14:38] <fartboner> hi!
[14:39] <Rory> fartboner: Hello
[14:39] <Rory> ikonia: A little pre-emptive?
[14:39] <ikonia> Rory: no
[14:41] <fixmypc956> is it possible to remove fstab entries w/o causing any issue
[14:41] <tovarish> fixmypc956, maybe you'll have issues at boot, but nothing dangerous
[14:43] <hawa> ubottu: the link http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html is not working... looks like the webpage is down... and i want a more specific tutorial rather than the whole wiki of fstab
[14:44] <mao> ubottu, really ???
[14:44] <hawa> can anybody provide me a link to fstab beginner tutorial
[14:44] <hawa> ???
[14:44] <mao> wa
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> hawa: use the gentoo handbook, great source there
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> hawa: I can give you mine in a pastebin if you want
[14:45] <hawa> gentoo??? yeah sure...
[14:45] <hawa> ActionPalsnip: tnx man... that wud be a gr8 help...
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> hawa: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484672/     remember, yor UUIDS *will* be different
[14:46] <Rory> hawa: This might be good, the Arch Wiki is another useful resource https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fstab
[14:46] <Rory> hawa: Bear in mind of course, Arch is Arch, and not Ubuntu, but fstab is always the same
[14:47] <hawa> Rory: i find wiki too hard to read with too many details... i just want to mount my windows partitions at startup...
[14:47] <fixmypc956> tovarish: look at this, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484667/ line 15 and 29. i put # to remove them temporarily...seems to have fixed my issue....can i remove them permanently and how so?
[14:48] <Rory> fixmypc956: if  you remove those lines or comment them, those partitions won't be mounted
[14:48] <Rory> Wait fixmypc956 it looks like your fstab is really messy with duplicates and things
[14:48] <fixmypc956> so how do i fix this
[14:49] <fixmypc956> yeah they look like duplicates
[14:50] <fixmypc956> what i want to do is move /home to 1tb hd single partition
[14:50] <fixmypc956> and not have /home on usb flash drive that has my OS
[14:51] <Rory> fixmypc956: You should back up your fstab and make a new one I think so you can be sure it is right
[14:51] <Rory> fixmypc956: You understand the basic principle of fstab?
[14:52] <fixmypc956> Rory: very little experience with linux...learning as i go along
[14:53] <Rory> fixmypc956: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484715/
[14:53] <tovarish> fixmypc956, your /home was duplicated
[14:53] <Rory> fixmypc956: That's a cleaned up fstab with everything EXCEPT a /home partition
[14:53] <tovarish> if you uncomment only one what happen?
[14:54] <zykotick9> tovarish: i believe everything is duplicated in fixmypc956's fstab...
[14:54] <WhatElse> almost all time my ubuntu doesn't start, and giva a : "BUG: soft lookup CPU# stuck" , http://paste.ubuntu.com/6483990 , thank you for your help

[14:58] <fault3r> i want a conky
[14:58] <fault3r> anyone known a beauty conky from gnome
[14:59] <philinux> fault3r;~ you can start with a simple one http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484731/
[14:59] <fixmypc956> what should i use to backup my fstab
[14:59] <Rory> fixmypc956: No I think you should go through it and identify the duplicates - don't forget a partition can only be mounted in one place, and only one partition can be mounted in each place
[14:59] <SNK3> fault3r: there also many conky configs in deviantart
[14:59] <Rory> fixmypc956: sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old

[15:00] <kunaguvarun> cannot boot live USB. unable to find live file system error !!!
[15:00] <Rory> !md5 | kunaguvarun sounds like a bad download or a bad copy to the USB
[15:00] <Wikiadmin> kunaguvarun: make partition on USB active
[15:01] <philinux> fault3r;~ what to meter?
[15:01] <fault3r> i want something like Infinity Conky 1.0
[15:01] <kunaguvarun> Wikiadmin: How do I do that. I'm on windows
[15:01] <fixmypc956> rory: once i backed up my fstab. how do i create a new one with what i need?
[15:01] <ActionPa1snip> fault3r: why not use it then: http://www.noobslab.com/2012/06/install-infinity-conky-in-ubuntulinux.html
[15:01] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ how did you make the live usb
[15:02] <ActionPa1snip> fault3r: https://launchpad.net/~noobslab/+archive/conky  nice PPA there
[15:02] <Rory> fixmypc956: edit it, it's just a file. Please read the link in !fstab above
[15:02] <fault3r> thanks philinux
[15:02] <kunaguvarun> philinux: I tried LiLi USB creator, YUMI, unetbootin. same error. I have used same disk for all the programs though
[15:03] <tovarish> is your usb key correct?
[15:03] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ have you checked the iso with md5sum
[15:03] <Rory> kunaguvarun: if the file you downloaded was corrupted it doesn't matter how many times you try. Can you check the md5sum using the link I gave you?
[15:04] <kunaguvarun> philinux: Rory I'm checking MD5 from the link provided. Will post the results in a while
[15:05] <kunaguvarun> MD5 checksums are the same. Result from winMD5sum program
[15:05] <tovarish> is your usb key broken?
[15:06] <kunaguvarun> philinux: I have BOOTICE with me. Do I repartition the device?
[15:06] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ try the stick in another machine
[15:06] <kunaguvarun> okay. I got another USB with me. I'll try with that stick
[15:07] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ silly question but can the bios boot from usb. Maybe a bios setting needs changing
[15:07] <Fiibar> hi , what does this do: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-create-a-ssl-certificate-on-apache-for-ubuntu-12-04 , giving me a https:// url? without buying a certificate? wildcard support?
[15:07] <kunaguvarun> philinux: What setting needs to be changed from BIOS?
[15:07] <Rory> Fiibar: It will be a self-signed certificate, so it will give you an error in a browser to that effect
[15:08] <Fiibar> is it save ?
[15:08] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ I've seen this recommended before "You need change your bios from IDE to ACHI"
[15:08] <kunaguvarun> philinux: There is no such setting in my BIOS
[15:08] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ ok that eleiminates that
[15:09] <Rory> Fiibar: A self-signed certificate error looks like this https://rory.sh:8112/
[15:09] <hawa> can i change the key for entering command mode in vim???
[15:09] <Rory> Fiibar: It's "safe" in that traffic will be encrypted, but only really safe for your users if they trust you
[15:09] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ try a diff usb socket
[15:10] <Fiibar> ok thx, itll pop up every visit, or?
[15:10] <kunaguvarun> I tried 2 sockets sp far
[15:10] <Pici> 70
[15:10] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ have u another machine? Or a friends
[15:10] <Fiibar> ah ok i see it now in chrome Rory :P
[15:10] <Rory> Fiibar: It'll pop up unless the user trusts it
[15:11] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ or another stick?
[15:11] <kunaguvarun> philinux: Nope, but I'll try with some other USB stick. I've done different Linux distro installations several times with the same USB stick
[15:11] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ maybe format the stick
[15:12] <philinux> first
[15:12] <kunaguvarun> philinux: Of course. I did that
[15:12] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ how do you check its got a boot flag from windows
[15:13] <WHAT_UP> my user is in the www-data group, and i ran "sudo chmod g+w ." on a certain directory where every file is owned by www-data:www-data . Why does the user get "Permission denied." when trying to edit files?
[15:13] <WHAT_UP> "sudo chmod g+w . -R", rather
[15:13] <kunaguvarun> philinux: I don't know. It can boot. I can choose the option to install or try options from Unetbootin menu. The problem is after that stage
[15:13] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ ah ok choose "check the disk"
[15:14] <kunaguvarun> philinux: Hmm. I didn't try that. Will try this time I boot
[15:14] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ thats not the unetbbotin menu thats the usb os itself
[15:15] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ so it boots but hangs?
[15:15] <kunaguvarun> philinux: Yes
[15:15] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ well choose the check the disk option first
[15:16] <kunaguvarun> philinux: sure
[15:16] <philinux> kunaguvarun;~ first thing i always do
[15:16] <WHAT_UP> what do i do if "groups $USER" != "groups" ?
[15:17] <zykotick9> WHAT_UP: did you log the user out and back in, since making the change?
[15:17] <WHAT_UP> zykotick9: no. i guess now that's necessary?
[15:17] <zykotick9> WHAT_UP: yes, group memebership is ONLY determined at login
[15:18] <WHAT_UP> zykotick9: :D thanks. what's the purpose for that, by the way?
[15:19] <zykotick9> WHAT_UP: that's the way it's always been... don't know the details myself
[15:19] <gr33n7007h> I know this is a little off topic but anyone know of any games that are quite addicting eg, neverputt, nikwi etc...

[15:21] <outlaw84> Hey, I am fighting with getting a NIC to work, I finally got the driver built and loaded, in "lshw -C network" it now shows up as DISABLED with logical name "eth0" but when I try to run "ifup eth0" I get ignoring unknown interface, what do I need to do to enabled the NIC?
[15:21] <genii> outlaw84: Try iconfig eth0 up
[15:22] <genii> outlaw84: ifconfig eth0 up ...rather (typo)
[15:22] <outlaw84> genii: worked great, thanks :)
[15:22] <frog__> hello
[15:23] <frog__> i got problem with xephyr and KDM
[15:23] <frog__> I wanna make new xserver with xephyr
[15:23] <outlaw84> genii: I am supprised I thought ifup/ifdown where the basic "real" commands, well well :)
[15:23] <frog__> Xephyr :1
[15:23] <frog__> and inside this Xephyr window
[15:23] <frog__> start KDM (login screen)
[15:23] <frog__> and be able to remote login via XDMCP
[15:23] <frog__> to another computer in my local netword
[15:23] <frog__> is this possible?
[15:25] <Rory> frog__: The key you want is comma, not Enter
[15:26] <apm1> is mir 100% implemented in 13.10 ?
[15:27] <Rory> frog__: I would assume it's possible, how far have you got?
[15:28] <DJones> !mir | apm1
[15:28] <sfan> hi
[15:28] <apm1> !wayland
[15:28] <philinux> apm1;~ mir is destined for 14.10
[15:29] <Rory> DJones: It isn't slated for inclusion in 14.04 any more
[15:29] <sfan> i'am a new in ubuntu
[15:29] <Rory> !ask
[15:29] <sfan> i'm a php programmer, and i change windows to ubuntu
[15:29] <sfan> i have question
[15:29] <frog__> I got configurerd XDMCP, when I start my system on login screen (KDM) I got option to chose "Remote Login", when I click it I see configured XDMCP servers (in my local network), and I can easly log into this machines
[15:29] <philinux> DJones;~ that factoid out of date now
[15:29] <sfan> in firefox, fonts is not similary as windows
[15:29] <sfan> so, how i can fix this
[15:30] <sfan> in ubuntu fonts is very small
[15:30] <Rory> sfan: Is it just Firefox you want to change the font size?
[15:30] <xangua> sfan: you can change fonts and unity configuration with ubuntu tweak http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
[15:31] <frog__> Rory: Now im trying to configure Xephyr to be my xserver, and start there KDM with remote login option
[15:31] <Ari-Yang> [10:29:02] <Rory> DJones: It isn't slated for inclusion in 14.04 any more ---> really? I rather mir not be included in 14.04
[15:31] <sfan> yes
[15:31] <bazhang> ttf-mscorefonts-installer  <--- install that sfan
[15:31] <sfan> firefox not have windows fonts.
[15:31] <philinux> apm1;~ you can try mir in 13.10 by installing unity-system-compositor
[15:31] <Ari-Yang> sfan: and you couldn't google 'how to change font sizes in firefox browser in ubuntu'?
[15:31] <sfan> i try but size is still small
[15:31] <Ari-Yang> :/
[15:31] <sfan> dude
[15:32] <Rory> Ari-Yang: Here's an ars-technica article about the update http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/11/stability-first-ubuntus-mir-wont-replace-x-in-14-04-desktop/
[15:32] <sfan> i found solutions
[15:32] <philinux> apm1;~ it's not guaranteed to work and it may default to xmir
[15:32] <sfan> ttf and other
[15:32] <sfan> but font is still small
[15:32] <bazhang> !enter | sfan
[15:32] <apm1> philinux, i heard someone mention this  the other day that mir is supposed to be better for dual gpu performance ?
[15:32] <Rory> sfan: While holding the Ctrl key, press the + key repeatedly until the font reaches the desired size
[15:33] <apm1> kinda doesn't make sense to me philinux
[15:33] <Ari-Yang> sfan: take a look at the answers on this page
[15:33] <rwc2> trying to revert to original ubuntu driver in saucy.  are any suggestions here recommended here?  http://askubuntu.com/questions/301640/i-hosed-my-video-drivers-how-to-revert-to-default-in-ubuntu-12-04
[15:33] <rwc2> driver for graphics\*
[15:33] <philinux> apm1;~ no idea on that but you can try it. to check if running http://askubuntu.com/questions/330862/how-do-i-find-out-if-my-system-is-using-mir
[15:34] <apm1> philinux, thanks for the info man :)
[15:34] <philinux> apm1;~ after installing unity-system-compositor you need to restart unity with setsid unity
[15:34] <philinux> apm1;~ then do the check.
[15:35] <philinux> apm1`it's been left out of 14.04 as it's still not solid although you can test it in the same way
[15:35] <zykotick9> rwc2: 1) what video card (lspci -v | grep -i vga) and 2) how did you install the driver (by downloading something manually, or through ubuntu somehow)?
[15:36] <lapt0p> Can someone recommend me a book for basic bash commands, a strict one, without unnecessary info?
[15:36] <philinux> apm1;~ this netbook is running mir and i've not noticed a thing different
[15:36] <philinux> apm1;~ on 13.10
[15:38] <zykotick9> lapt0p: if you want to learn back, check out http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide and the other info on that page.  it's "THE" authroity basically, the folks in #bash are mighty knowledgable as well...

[15:44] <lapt0p> Why is print server, called "print server". Why "server"? Because it *serves* the printer with some data (text to be printed)?
[15:44] <zykotick9> rwc2: i can't/won't help.  good luck.
[15:44] <tirengarfio_> Ontani, have you tried sudo service netxserv stop?
[15:45] <hurdorbsd> k
[15:45] <tirengarfio_> Ontani, or have you tried sudo service apache stop to stop apache
[15:45] <SASDOE> tirengarfio_: you want to know how to mount a disk?
[15:45] <hurdorbsd> what is linux-libre?
[15:45] <tirengarfio_> SASDOE, yes
[15:45] <zykotick9> hurdorbsd: linux kernel without non-free blobs
[15:47] <Ontani> tirengarfio_ port 80 is used by netxserv
[15:48] <lapt0p> Why is print server, called "print server". Why "server"? Because it *serves* the printer with some data (text to be printed)?
[15:48] <tirengarfio_> so try to stop it
[15:48] <tirengarfio_> as I said before
[15:48] <kkkkkkk> hi all, how to disable auto numlock at startup
[15:48] <hurdorbsd> rkhunter
[15:48] <Rory> kkkkkkk: Look in your system BIOS settings
[15:48] <kkkkkkk> everytime i start my laptop, numlock key get on
[15:48] <hurdorbsd> it is simple put off your numlock
[15:49] <Rory> kkkkkkk: That is nothing to do with ubuntu, windows or any other OS
[15:49] <kkkkkkk> No setting in the BIOS
[15:49] <Ontani> apache isn't running...
[15:49] <Ontani> why would I stop it
[15:49] <Rory> kkkkkkk: I'm sorry to hear that
[15:50] <hurdorbsd> everyone's pc is default to put on the num lock when you start it
[15:51] <hurdorbsd> I want Ubuntu + Puppy
[15:51] <tirengarfio_> SASDOE, when I run sudo fdisk -l   the disk is not shown, but I can find it in "Disks" utility..
[15:51] <kkkkkkk> No i am using a laptop, keyboard does not have numeric keypad, numlock gets on with help of fn key
[15:51] <Fudus> Try to add "greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/numlockx off" at the end in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[15:51] <kkkkkkk> i turn it off with help of function key
[15:51] <tirengarfio_> I have run "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media" and I get this: http://pastebin.com/N6JHJG9b
[15:52] <xangua> hurdorbsd: isn't puppy based on ubuntu¿

[15:52] <Fudus> to kkkkkkk
[15:52] <hurdorbsd> upup
[15:52] <kkkkkkk> fudus: thanks
[15:52] <zykotick9> tirengarfio_: fyi you DON'T want to be mounting to /media directly... things get automounted benith that, i'd suggest /mnt for temp/testing
[15:53] <magmatt> I've got an upstart script that when stopped doesn't stop all the child processes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6484975/  This shows the problem: http://bpaste.net/show/yS98t42s9ki5umrFFDoG/
[15:53] <Ontani> when running netstat -lnp | grep ':80 ' i'm getting: tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:80              <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN      1194/netxserv
[15:54] <magmatt> why aren't all the child processes being killed?
[15:54] <GuybrushThreepwo> Anyone still here that was helping me before
[15:54] <tirengarfio_> zykotick9, so how should I modify my commands? sudo mount -r ntfs /dev/sdb1 /tmp/testing ?
[15:54] <hurdorbsd> Ubuntu latest would use 3.13 ?? which isn't available yet?
[15:54] <magmatt> oh, maybe this isn't the place for upstart questions... I'll ask in #upstart
[15:56] <hurdorbsd> is a Ubuntu a linux-libre ?
[15:58] <Rory> !linux | hurdorbsd
[15:59] <Fudus> hurdorbsd: No
[16:02] <hggdh> hurdorbsd: the current in-development Ubuntu (Trusty, to be 14.04 LTS) *may* use linux 3.13, if 3.13 is released in time.

[16:16] <GuybrushThreepwo> If I hit the power button after the display has shut off

[16:22] <kkkkkkk> port is mentioned in advanced
[16:22] <kenetik_> kkkkkkk: go to advanced tab, try port 5222 and uncheck require ssl
[16:22] <zztopless> well, sleep deprivation does have similar effects to alchohol
[16:22] <zykotick9> tirengarfio_: the automounter mounts under /media /media/UUID type thing, if you mount to /media then something won't be right...
[16:23] <vatsmonroe> my bad lol
[16:23] <kkkkkkk> same
[16:23] <kkkkkkk> 5222 is there
[16:23] <kkkkkkk> and use encryption if available

[16:27] <Surkow|laptop> hi. I finally managed to install ubuntu 13.10 by upgrading from 13.04 (otherwise I'd end up with a non bootable kernel).
[16:27] <zztopless> The finally have a nearly sugar free slurpie... seem to have little ability to resist (even if it's too damn cold for nearly December)
[16:28] <bazhang> !ot | zztopless
[16:28] <zztopless> lol, was just typinh 'what is the name of the off-topic channel
[16:28] <zztopless> thanks
[16:28] <Surkow|laptop> however, I don't seem to be able to make use of the netbios name of my NAS. I'm getting "mount: error could not resolve address for..""
[16:29] <vatsmonroe> can you tell me what this means (gksudo : 20575): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap".... Clling Inhibit failed: GDBus.Error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files
[16:29] <Surkow|laptop> despite having added "wins" to /etc/nsswitch.conf and having installed cifs utils
[16:30] <Surkow|laptop> oh and I also installed windbind. All of this was previously enough to be able to mount devices based on netbios names, instead of IP.
[16:31] <Surkow|laptop> what is the proper procedure to be able to mount smb shares via netbios name?
[16:31] <gswain> is there a prefix kernel modules start with in apt if i was going to search for installable kernel modules?
[16:33] <jhutchins_wk> gswain: Most kernel modules are part of the kernel package.  What are you looking for?
[16:34] <gswain> nf_conntrack_ftp
[16:34] <gswain> lsmod nothing is there
[16:34] <gswain> if i mod probe nf_conntrack_ftp i get an error saying it doesn't exist
[16:35] <gswain> same thing with ip_conntrack_ftp

[16:35] <gswain> i just have one file

[16:47] <ActionPa1snip> !mint | CHC_Admin try the channel for your distro
[16:47] <ademoglu> client: no ist invisible Smokin_Gun
[16:47] <CHC_Admin> thx
[16:48] <rypervenche> gswain: What kernel are you using?
[16:48] <ademoglu> sorry invisible
[16:48] <Smokin_Gun> ademoglu nothing on the desktop?
[16:48] <Guest82053> hello...I have been on this terminal for 16 hours and I still have no answers
[16:48] <rypervenche> gswain: Also, what version of Ubuntu?
[16:48] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: wassup?
[16:48] <Smokin_Gun> or the file manager?
[16:49] <Surkow|laptop> Guest82053, what was your question?
[16:49] <Guest82053> I am on a rescue disk, my install has no usb or ethernet connection
[16:49] <Guest82053> I cannot figure out why
[16:49] <gswain> rypervenche: uname -r 3.11.6-x86_64-linode35
[16:49] <gswain> 12.04
[16:50] <Surkow|laptop> Guest82053, you tried installing 13.10? Perhaps you can try 13.04?
[16:50] <ademoglu> Smokin_Gun: i started system live, and i want to back up my datas from hdd to a usb disk but i cant see my hdd
[16:50] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: how do you mean 'rescue disk'?
[16:51] <Surkow|laptop> he probably means something like a live environment from cd
[16:51] <Smokin_Gun> weird that ubuntu can't see an HDD.
[16:51] <Guest82053> I'm booted through the 13.10  boot disk
[16:51] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: ok, what are you trying to achieve?
[16:51] <Guest82053> I have ethernet and USB here but when I go to my install ..nothing
[16:52] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: oh so you wnat to install the OS to a drive using the liveCD?
[16:52] <ademoglu> Smokin_Gun: what can i do ?
[16:52] <Guest82053> yes, that is what I have done
[16:52] <zykotick9> ademoglu: can you paste the output of either "sudo parted -l" (if you use GPT) or "sudo fdisk -l" (in MSDOS)
[16:52] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: ok so the ubuntu OS is installed to the drive, where is the problem?
[16:52] <zykotick9> s/in MSDOS/if MSDOS/
[16:52] <Guest82053> I just have no ethernet or usb
[16:53] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: ok, what Ethernet chip are you using?
[16:53] <Guest82053> realtek
[16:53] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: which realtek?
[16:53] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: sudo lshw -C network      will tell you
[16:54] <jhutchins_wk> gswain: Unfortunately I don't have great resources for tracking this down.  You could try the "conntrack" package, which may be a generic replacement, or look for "netfilter" packages that might relate.
[16:54] <rypervenche> gswain: If the module does not exist and it's not already built into your kernel, you'll need to fix your kernel.
[16:54] <Guest82053> sorry it is Broadcom
[16:54] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: what broadcom?
[16:55] <Guest82053> BCM4313
[16:55] <gswain> yea i install conn track before i came here
[16:55] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: thats a wireless chip, not ethernet
[16:55] <ademoglu> zykotick9: its error "Error: Both the primary and back up GPT tables are corrupt. Try making a  refresh table, and using Parteds, rescue to recover partitipns."
[16:55] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: are you having issues with wireless, or is it wired (ethernet)
[16:55] <Guest82053> Ethernet RTL8111
[16:55] <gswain> rypervenche yea looking that way, I'm just kind of new to ubuntu and I don't have all the ubuntuisms down yet, it also looks like linode rolls its own kernel >.<
[16:56] <gswain> so its anybodies guess
[16:56] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: ok and the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[16:56] <zykotick9> ademoglu: best of luck!  i have NO idea regarding that error... sorry.
[16:56] <Guest82053> Ubuntu 13.10 \n \l
[16:57] <ademoglu> anyone help me for acces the my hdd ?
[16:57] <rypervenche> gswain: Are you on OpenVZ?
[16:57] <gswain> I'm pretty sure linode uses xen
[16:57] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: try:   sudo modprobe r8169     does it start working?
[16:58] <faryshta> hi. I am trying to edit UML files. I tried umbrello and dia. is there any other tool i can use?
[16:58] <Guest82053> I get no feedback when command issued...I guess I would need to go back to install and try it out
[16:59] <Guest82053> at
[16:59] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: no output mean success
[16:59] <Guest82053> at least it will give me an avenue to try
[16:59] <Smilex> I seem to have deleted the Ubuntu Unity DE, as I can't choose it when I login. How do I get it back? I tried installing the package 'unity8'
[16:59] <Guest82053> ok great...ty for your help
[16:59] <ActionPa1snip> Guest82053: try:  sudo dhclient eth0     do you get a web connection?
[16:59] <ademoglu> guys help me for acces the hdd
[17:00] <Smilex> faryshta, yEd is great
[17:00] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: unity isnt a DE, it's a shell. Its a plugin for compiz. Gnome is still the DE
[17:00] <Guest82053> RTNETLINK answers: file exists
[17:00] <xangua> Smilex: how did you remove it¿ tried to install ubuntu-desktop ¿
[17:00] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: Unity8 isnt in the official repos, where did you get it from?
[17:00] <faryshta> Smilex: thanks, let me try. does it run on windows too
[17:00] <faryshta> ?
[17:01] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, I find it by running 'apt-cache search unity'
[17:01] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: and what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[17:01] <ActionPa1snip> !info unity
[17:01] <Guest82053> ty for the help!
[17:01] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: Saucy is ver 7.1
[17:02] <Smilex> xangua, I believe I removed it by logging into the GNOME (No effects) option, and then running 'sudo apt-get autoremove'
[17:02] <ActionPa1snip> Guest43029: did it work ok?
[17:02] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, Ubuntu 13.10 \n \l
[17:02] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: then you will have unity 7.1, not 8
[17:03] <Smilex> ok, wait a sec
[17:03] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: if you run:   sudo apt-get --reinstall install `dpkg -l | grep unity | awk {'print $2'}`
[17:03] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: it will reinstall all packages with 'unity' in them, may help
[17:04] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, will I get the option to login to the regular Ubuntu, instead of GNOME?
[17:05] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: you should get the session option again
[17:05] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: worth a shot
[17:06] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, http://sprunge.us/TSbC <- That's the result of apt-cache search unity. Look down the bottom, there's unity8
[17:06] <faryshta> Smilex: can't find yEd on repos
[17:06] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: what is the full output of:   apt-cache policy unity8
[17:07] <ActionPa1snip> !info unity8
[17:07] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: seems to be from the oficia repos
[17:07] <Smilex> faryshta, there's a .deb installation file on their website. Just Google yEd
[17:08] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, http://hastebin.com/febotodoge.sm
[17:08] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: you can always make your own session under /usr/share/xsessions :)
[17:09] <faryshta> http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yed_download.html there is a .sh file. i think i will try with that
[17:10] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, well I'm reinstalling compiz, so I guess a lot of stuff is missing. Also your command didn't work.
[17:10] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: how so?
[17:11] <Smilex> ActionPa1snip, http://hastebin.com/kojucayequ.vhdl
[17:11] <ActionPa1snip> Smilex: looks like you have a few packages from PPAs or other sources
[17:16] <ginsun> Hi
[17:18] <bria_____> on 13.10 server, how do you restart the networking service ?
[17:19] <AlanBell> bria_____: sudo service networking restart
[17:20] <bria_____> thanks AlanBell
[17:20] <nickname_you_wan> hello
[17:22] <nickname_you_wan> hello
[17:22] <faryshta> hi. I am trying to edit UML files. I tried umbrello, yed and dia. is there any other tool i can use?
[17:26] <gome> hello
[17:26] <ActionPa1snip> faryshta: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/168512/best-free-professional-looking-uml-tool
[17:26] <gome> I want help
[17:26] <gome> for ubantu 64 bit.
[17:26] <ActionPa1snip> gome: ask away
[17:26] <gome> so .
[17:27] <gome> how can i download through torrent.
[17:28] <ActionPa1snip> gome: transmission is part of a ddefault ubuntu install
[17:28] <tmmunq> gome: ktorrent or transmission
[17:28] <gome> ktorrent.
[17:29] <tmmunq> transmission is very simple, but ktorrent is very unstable
[17:29] <tonyt> uget is another one
[17:29] <LjL> i don't remember ktorrent ever crashing on me
[17:29] <m1sf1t_> if you want a cli, rtorrent is a good one. i use that.
[17:29] <tmmunq> it spontaneously stops downloading and uploading, i have to restart it
[17:31] <gome> so plese let me know how to download through torrent.
[17:32] <ActionPa1snip> transmission + web UI + torrent-fu on Android :)
[17:32] <ActionPa1snip> gome: open a torrent file with transmission and it will download
[17:32] <fish_> hi
[17:33] <gome> yes <ActionPa1snip>
[17:33] <m1sf1t_> fish_: hey :)
[17:34] <RocketPenguin_> IS this the place for help on Ubuntu 13.04?
[17:34] <fish_> I have thinkpad x1 carbon running raring. the touchscreen works fine with the primary display, but after attaching a second screen all the touch positions are off since the output it streched across two screen but the input is only one the left screen
[17:34] <ActionPa1snip> RocketPenguin_: yes, til mid january next year
[17:34] <m1sf1t_> RocketPenguin: yepp
[17:34] <RocketPenguin_> Ok.
[17:34] <brian_> When i do a networking restart inside my vm (bridged), it's not grabbing a dhcp address.
[17:34] <brian_> any ideas?
[17:35] <fish_> I've read about X's input coordinate transfomation matrix but I hoped there is a more automatic way to fix this
[17:35] <RocketPenguin_> Well, i have a really weird issue.
[17:35] <RocketPenguin_> Involving graphics
[17:35] <RocketPenguin_> Ubuntu Desktop Environment
[17:35] <RocketPenguin_> And Skiddles.
[17:35] <ActionPa1snip> RocketPenguin_: ease off on teh ENTER key please
[17:35] <RocketPenguin_> Actually, no skiddles.
[17:36] <RocketPenguin_> Alright, here it goes: I was having some really weird issues with my desktop, everything glitching, lagging, and like the old windows 98, the windows that i had open left trails
[17:36] <m1sf1t_> brian_: have you tried using a static ip rather than dhcp?
[17:36] <RocketPenguin_> This was while i was on Ubuntu 12.04
[17:37] <brian_> i have not.
[17:37] <brian_> it's 13.10 server, btw
[17:37] <RocketPenguin_> Then, i upgraded to 12.10 or whatever it was, and then immediately to 13.04 thinking it would fix the issue
[17:37] <m1sf1t_> brian_: that may well work, because after you restart, with dhcp, you are assigned a new ip
[17:38] <RocketPenguin_> And it only made it worse. Ubuntu Desktop environment has no unity, the desktop is black, and the files i have on my desktop are poor resoultion and over sized
[17:38] <m1sf1t_> sorry, gotta go! good luck :)
[17:38] <molgrum> i have a question about humble indie bundle games, i can download the games through the software center but when i click "download for ubuntu" there's no program in the list to open the url with. what do i do?
[17:38] <RocketPenguin_> I tried to use Cinnamon, but it crashed every time, and it place me onto gnome fallback
[17:38] <RocketPenguin_> Also with a black screen.
[17:38] <molgrum> do i just go to /usr/bin/software-center?
[17:39] <RocketPenguin_> Another thing, i just swapped my hdd into another laptop with different graphics, if that is of any use to whoever decides to help me.
[17:39] <brian_> misfit, i should get assigned by dhcp after restarting the networking services though.
[17:39] <RocketPenguin_> Anyone have any ideas?
[17:39] <brian_> i shouldn't have to reboot the machine, right?
[17:41] <ss_haze> I installed steam in ubuntu since last time it went nuts and I couldn't login my user, but now S3TC texture support is missing
[17:41] <ss_haze> for CS SOURCE
[17:41] <ss_haze> it was only game I played and it worked
[17:41] <ss_haze> ..
[17:41] <zykotick9> brian_: how are you restarting the network?  if you notice, "sudo service networking restart" gives a message about being deprecated...  you may have to ifdown/ifup the device...
[17:41] <brian_> ifdown?
[17:42] <brian_> what should i use instad of service networking ...
[17:42] <brian_> ?
[17:42] <RocketPenguin_> Anyone know how to resolve black screen broken unity buggy/not working desktop environments?
[17:42] <zykotick9> brian_: you the way you currently are.  BUT, if it doesn't work, then ifdown, then ifup, the interface - and see if that works
[17:42] <zykotick9> s/you/use/
[17:43] <TiZ> Hi. I'm having some serious trouble with login on an ASUS G46VW. 4 out of 5 times when I login, I get only a black screen and nothing more. The xsession-errors only has these contents: http://pastebin.com/kJjqNTj0

[17:44] <zykotick9> ss_haze: #steamlug
[17:44] <TiZ> Strange thing is, xsession-errors looks like that even when I log in successfully.
[17:44] <nickname_you_wan> hello
[17:44] <brian_> ss_haze: i thought it was ubuntu-steam
[17:45] <gr33n7007h> ss_haze, /msg alis list *steam*
[17:45] <bazhang> !steam | ss_haze
[17:45] <RocketPenguin_> Every time i boot, it brings up the messge "File not found, press enter to continue" How do i resolve this?

[17:51] <Ontani> Hi, is there a way to track down a process from where it started?
[17:53] <Ontani> i've been looking into /proc/<pid> but not finding the information needed
[17:55] <brian_> it doesn't appear to grab a dhcp address when Im in bridged mode in my vm
[17:55] <brian_> im getting a <IP_ADDRESS> address, which clearly isn't a local dhcp adddy
[17:56] <linuxuz3r> hi

[18:11] <ikonia> Ontani: if it's a special build - it's not something this channel supports
[18:12] <client> Hello
[18:13] <Natalie-5274> Hi
[18:14] <client> Would it be a good idea for me to use the latest stable version of a piece of software if the software center has software that is 2 years old?
[18:14] <vooze> Anyone who can play Metro: Last light, with Intel GFX on Steam? I can't even start the game :/
[18:14] <ikonia> Razor_Edge: depends, what software are you looking at ?
[18:15] <Razor_Edge> A small application called: rednotebook
[18:15] <ikonia> Razor_Edge: is there a reason to not use the ubuntu version ?
[18:15] <Razor_Edge> There has been 15 version updates since the ubuntu version and some of them contain useful feature updates
[18:16] <ikonia> Razor_Edge: ok, so there is your answer
[18:16] <Natalie-5274> Are there any good online computer resellers that support Ubuntu?
[18:16] <ikonia> Natalie-5274: system76 ? dell ? there have been a few in the past,  but peoples views differ on how good they are
[18:17] <Razor_Edge> Natalie-5274 resellers? Or actual companies that sell hardware with ubuntu?
[18:17] <Natalie-5274> Razor_Edge: A company that builds and sells computers with Ubuntu. Also one that provides online support
[18:18] <bean> System76 is pretty good. Support can be a pain, but I've only seen a few faulty laptops
[18:18] <Razor_Edge> I know 1 that specifically sells Ubuntu laptops. Let me check
[18:19] <Natalie-5274> Razor_Edge: Yeah actual computer towers. Not laptops
[18:19] <Natalie-5274> I mean even though they're they same 'computer'.
[18:19] <molgrum> how do i check what command an icon executes in unity?
[18:20] <Razor_Edge> Natalie-5274 see here: http://linuxpreloaded.com/
[18:20] <CookieM> or "thinkpenguin"
[18:21] <Laurenceb> hi
[18:22] <Laurenceb> files from my windows machine have timestamps offset by an hour
[18:22] <Razor_Edge> Hello
[18:22] <Laurenceb> can anyone help?
[18:23] <jhutchins_wk> Laurenceb: Are both systems configured for the same time zone?
 yes
[18:24] <Laurenceb> GMT - UK time
[18:24] <iwi> hi there, is it possible to disable swap during unattended installation with kickstart ?
[18:24] <brian32> i did   #mount /dev/sdb /mnt/temp  and i  now i cant write files as a normal user but i can as root can some one help me?
[18:25] <Sh1G3rU> brian32,  sudo chown user:user /mnt/temp
[18:25] <jhutchins_wk> iwi: Why?  What are you trying to accomplish?
[18:25] <ubuntuaddicted> my virtualbox running a win7 guest is frozen, i can't click the start menu to shut the vm computer down. it also appears like the virtualbox window is frozen also. how do i gracefull shut down the vm
[18:26] <Sh1G3rU> ubuntuaddicted, killing the process maybe
[18:26] <brian32> Sh1G3rU:  that gets me chown: changing ownership of ‘/mnt/temp’: Operation not permitted
[18:26] <iwi> jhutchins_wk: i'm building a customized image for openstack and don't want to waist space for swap
[18:27] <Sh1G3rU> brian32,  are you using sudo?
[18:27] <ubuntuaddicted> Sh1G3rU, i know i can kill it. i want to shutdown the guest OS gracefully. not sure if there is some virtulbox command line command i can run
[18:27] <brian32> Sh1G3rU:  yessr  i copy pasted it changed username
[18:28] <Sh1G3rU> brian32, you still cant write?
[18:29] <brian32> Sh1G3rU: when i ran the command, it said not permited
[18:29] <brian32> Sh1G3rU: maybe i should be mounting it somewere else? like somewhere in my home dir?
[18:29] <Wizzikz> brian, add sudo to the beginning of the command
[18:29] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: VBoxManage controlvm "name of vm" acpipowerbutton   perhaps
[18:30] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: You'll have to configure the guest OS to shutdown when the power button is pressed
[18:30] <Wek> Can I install Ubuntu on my vibrator?
[18:30] <Sh1G3rU> brian32, yeah try that , try mounting on your home dir
[18:30] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, that wont work then cause it's frozen now.
[18:30] <bean> Wek: not appropriate
[18:30] <Wizzikz> Wek, yes, if it has a computer build in it
[18:30] <brian32> Wizzikz: http://paste.debian.net/68080/  xD
[18:31] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, it appears like virtual command gui is frozen also. i was trying to avoid killing the process but i think i may have to
[18:31] <brian_> there is a script called config_server.sh, but it wont let me execute it
[18:32] <brian_> it actually says command not found.
[18:32] <brian_> what is the chmod to make it executible
[18:32] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, ok, i just ran vboxmanage controlvm Win7 poweroff and it returns 0%...10%... but then is stuck there
[18:33] <axizor> hi, i'm new to linux and am having trouble installing a program via apt-get through command prompt
[18:33] <geirha> brian_: If the script is in the current directory, you need to run  ./config_server.sh   with out the path (./) it will search through the directories in the PATH variable instead.
[18:33] <brian_> ahh yea.
[18:33] <brian_> just realized that
[18:33] <brian_> thanks geirha
[18:33] <axizor> i'm just getting "E: Unable to locate package ps3mediaserver"
[18:33] <axizor> i've followed all the instructions and don't know what's wrong
[18:33] <bean> axizor: then it isn't in your repositories.
[18:33] <LayAnotherBlock> I'm having a problem with Kubuntu
[18:34] <axizor> i added it though
[18:34] <axizor> "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:happy-neko/ps3mediaserver"
[18:34] <Whatcat> hola
[18:34] <bean> axizor: you added the PPA
[18:34] <High_Voltage> Hi anyone can help me with installing PyOpeNNi?
[18:34] <bean> axizor: did you apt-get update afterward?
[18:34] <High_Voltage> I have some errors
[18:34] <axizor> yes
[18:34] <Whatcat> who love anime?
[18:34] <bean> axizor: and which ubuntu version are you on?
[18:34] <axizor> 13.10
[18:34] <axizor> desktop
[18:34] <LayAnotherBlock> In Kubuntu, I'm having a problem logging in...
[18:35] <lnxslck> Whatcat, i love cake
[18:35] <bean> axizor: looks like that PPA doesn't have any packages for saucy
[18:35] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: Hm. I haven't encountered anything like that myself. Don't know what that could be, other than some bug with virtualbox itself.
[18:35] <Whatcat> And I love Hellsing
[18:35] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: #vbox might be able to help you more
[18:35] <Whatcat> Hellsing is the bestest anime.
[18:36] <LayAnotherBlock> Can somebody please help me??
[18:36] <Whatcat> with building?
[18:36] <LayAnotherBlock> With Kubuntu
[18:36] <Pici> !offtopic | Whatcat
[18:36] <Whatcat> just use Ubuntu Unity
[18:37] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, so would you normally just kill the process (sudo kill -9 VirtualBox)
[18:37] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, its been frozen for about 30 minutes, i don't see it coming back
[18:37] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: No, kill -9 is something you should never use. It's an absolute last resort
[18:38] <Whatcat> KDE is one big BUG
[18:38] <LayAnotherBlock> Where can i get help with Kubuntu?
[18:38] <Sh1G3rU> ubuntuaddicted,  unless you were doing something really important on your guest machine you have to kill the process
[18:38] <xangua> !behelpful | Whatcat
[18:38] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: Try kill without -9
[18:38] <Whatcat> like OpenOffice and VLC
[18:38] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, ok
[18:39] <fixmypc956> if i want to save all files to a directory on my 1tb hd, how do i do this?
[18:39] <fixmypc956> must i first make a directory on that hd and the mount it?
[18:40] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, that worked for all the process's but this one ubu       3163  0.1  0.1<PHONE_NUMBER>4 ?        Sl   11:34   0:05 /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSVC --auto-shutdown
[18:40] <Sh1G3rU> fixmypc956, connect the drive, if it doesnt mount automatically you have to mount it with the mount command (man mount ) then create the folder then copy on that folder your data
[18:41] <fixmypc956> use mount to check to see if the drive mounted?
[18:42] <geirha> fixmypc956: Assuming it has a filesystem, you have to mount it first, then create a directory to put the files in
[18:42] <ubuntuaddicted> Sh1G3rU, ok, i killed them all but now when I click on the app to start again, nothing happens but 3 new process's were spawned BUT no Vbox GUI to start my Win7 VM
[18:43] <ubuntuaddicted> last time this happened i had to start my machine. i shouldn't have to restart should I?
[18:43] <fixmypc956> ok and how can i find out if the drive has a filesystem
[18:43] <geirha> ubuntuaddicted: Hm. Seems to be a serious bug then, if it doesn't terminate when you send it SIGTERM
[18:43] <ubuntuaddicted> geirha, ok, i killed them all but now when I click on the app to start again, nothing happens but 3 new process's were spawned BUT no Vbox GUI to start my Win7 VM
[18:43] <Whatcat> ikonia why?
[18:43] <Sh1G3rU> ubuntuaddicted, probably the first proccess is not completely killed and it is still waiting for some child proccess to terminate
[18:44] <Whatcat> cry she banned me on offtopic
[18:44] <Whatcat> bad girl
[18:44] <ubuntuaddicted> Sh1G3rU, ok, i;ll just restart then I guess
[18:44] <Whatcat> how abuse?
[18:45] <geirha> fixmypc956: try mounting it, and if it succeeds, it has a filesystem
[18:45] <whoever> Whatcat:  what did you say to get banned from there ? did yoy say windows is superrior to linux
[18:45] <fixmypc956> well i entered mount -l and its not showing it
[18:45] <IdleOne> !behelpful
[18:46] <Whatcat> i said short poem
[18:46] <Whatcat> and she banned me
[18:47] <23LAAMW5W> hi guys i have dell vostro running 13.04. But i am not able to reduce screen brightness. does someone have solution on this?
[18:47] <whoever> Whatcat: or did you click your heels togethe three times and say "linus torvalds is not real"
[18:47] <NFD_> okay quick weird question time: i'm using nm-applet to manage connections and whatnot. Many options are grayed out, and trying to connect to a network pops up an error that says "Connection activation failed" and "(32) Not authorized to control networking."
[18:47] <IdleOne> whoever: enough with the jokes.
[18:48] <NFD_> basically, wat? the problem has persisted over reboots
[18:50] <Xonan> hialo
[18:50] <lapt0p> Can someone tell me, if i go to a certain path in the terminal, and i want to start the windows manager there, what should i write? I am using Xubuntu. Do i have to write: xfwm4?
[18:50] <Xonan> What is in Ubuntu ban evade?
[18:50] <Xonan> Gnome 3
[18:50] <lapt0p> Can someone tell me, if i go to a certain path in the terminal, and i want to start the file manager there, what should i write? I am using Xubuntu. Do i have to write: xfwm4?

[18:51] <geirha> NFD_: What groups are your user a member of?
[18:51] <NFD_> uh lemme see
[18:52] <zykotick9> geirha: my guess - just one ;)
[18:53] <NFD_> geirha: (my account) adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare wireshark jupiter
[18:54] <zykotick9> geirha: i guessed wrong
[18:54] <NFD_> haha
[18:54] <SASDOE_> lapt0p: you could have an alias for something like alias example='filemanage -option $PWD
[18:55] <RocketPenguin> Who has the time and patience to help a fellow with shartload of errors and graphical issues?
[18:56] <NFD_> RocketPenguin: no promises, but what's up?
[18:56] <glitsj16> lapt0p: xfwm is a window manager, i guess you could try thunar `pwd` (note the backticks)
[18:56] <SASDOE_> lapt0p: just googled it, would be something in the likes of "alias example='nautilus $PWD'"
[18:56] <geirha> NFD_: Is polkit running? ps -ef|grep '[p]olkit'
[18:56] <jmgk> hello
[18:56] <ghostnik11> i need help getting acess to my bluetooth in ubuntu 13.04
[18:57] <RocketPenguin> NFD_,  Alright, first off, unity is not working, my desktop is black, and Ubuntu Desktop Environment is screwed up.
[18:57] <RocketPenguin> And i am getting a lot of error pop ups.
[18:57] <NFD_> tried running nautilus in a terminal?
[18:57] <geirha> lapt0p: xdg-open ./
[18:57] <ghostnik11> it says its on but when i go to it i can't access it and tell it to search for a device using bluetooth
[18:57] <ovrflw0x> i've vlc installed which uses libavcodec, i want libmp3lame encoder which is in libavcodec-extra-53 so can i replace former with latter?
[18:58] <ovrflw0x> i've vlc installed which uses **** libavcodec53 ****, i want libmp3lame encoder which is in libavcodec-extra-53 so can i replace former with latter?
[18:58] <RocketPenguin> NFD_, I have tried running a lot in terminal, but i am not sure about that
[18:58] <NFD_> geirha: root      1579     1  0 08:55 ?        00:00:00 /usr/lib/policykit-1/polkitd --no-debug
[18:58] <RocketPenguin> NFD_,  what would i run?
[18:58] <geirha> NFD_: but no  /usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1  as your user?
[18:59] <NFD_> what might have happened is that nautilus may have crashed. that happened to me once or twice in my unity days
[18:59] <NFD_> just try running nautilus
[18:59] <NFD_> see what happens
[18:59] <Needsomehelp_> Guys, I need some help. I'm considering to step over completely to Ubuntu as my OS, but there is one feature that's holding my back from. Namely, the feature to tag files and find files back through tags, like Mac OS X 10.9 does.
[18:59] <NFD_> geirha: just root
[19:00] <geirha> NFD_: try running /usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1  as your user. See if that makes nm-applet happy
[19:00] <RocketPenguin> NFD_, It opened home, and left an error message in the terminal
[19:00] <ghostnik11> can someone help me get access to bluetooth device as, I don't have internet for long
[19:00] <NFD_> rocketpenguin: what's the error say?
[19:00] <chaotix> hello...  is it safe for me to install this application from source?  i have ubuntu 13.10
[19:00] <chaotix> https://launchpad.net/maya
[19:01] <chaotix> it is the elementary os calendar app
[19:01] <chaotix> i want to try it as i have heard great things about it
[19:01] <sovern> Is there any Linux soluition like logmein.com?
[19:02] <RocketPenguin> NFD_, http://pastebin.com/YYsUJVHQ
[19:02] <lapt0p> I don't know if my question is clear enough. I'll try again :) : Let's say i enter a certain path in the terminal emulator.  After that, i want to see that folder in a graphical user interface (with a graphical file manager, not a text-based like ls). What should i write in the terminal? I am using Xubuntu.
[19:02] <compdoc> sovern, remote desktop?
[19:02] <Sh1G3rU> sovern,  if you mean gui remote login there are plenty VNCs and x2go
[19:03] <sovern> Specifically; I have 1000 windows machines on LMI that I am trying to mvoe to linux.  VNC is a non-starter
[19:03] <NFD_> geirha: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6485877/
[19:03] <NFD_> eww
[19:04] <RocketPenguin> NFD_, http://pastebin.com/YYsUJVHQ
[19:04] <compdoc> sovern, there is rdp
[19:04] <sovern> compdoc: does RDP work without a firewall hole?
[19:04] <compdoc> you need a port forwarded, or do the smart thing - vpn
[19:04] <chaotix> lapt0p, i would cd to that directory and then use the command for your file manager
[19:05] <geirha> lapt0p: xdg-open ./
[19:05] <chaotix> the command being 'nautilus' for nautilus, pcmanfm for pcmanfm,
[19:05] <lapt0p> chaotix: Thunar i suppose
[19:05] <glitsj16> lapt0p: crystal clear .. tried geirha's answer yet (asthat looks the more generic one)? --> xdg-open ./
[19:05] <geirha> NFD_: Hm. So dbus isn't running either. network manager uses dbus
[19:05] <NFD_> RocketPenguin: those errors don't look critical, so it probably ran?
[19:06] <NFD_> but it didn't fix your problem?
[19:06] <lapt0p> I am skeptical to use that, because i don't actually know what that means.
[19:06] <RocketPenguin> NFD_,  What do you mean, ran? Yes, it did open up home
[19:06] <NFD_> RocketPenguin: is this a fresh or old install?
[19:06] <lapt0p> Thanks for the help, anyway
[19:06] <NFD_> relatively speaking
[19:06] <glitsj16> lapt0p: xdg-open is a generic command that will open your default file-manager
[19:07] <RocketPenguin> NFD_, I installed about 2 years ago, but just updated 12.04 to 13.04 this morning
[19:07] <lapt0p> and why do i use ./ ?
[19:07] <glitsj16> lapt0p: no worries, it's a good attitude to ask if you don't know
[19:07] <NFD_> gotcha, the update blues :P
[19:07] <NFD_> you've got current graphics drivers?
[19:07] <glitsj16> lapt0p: ./ translates to 'open the directory where i am here in terminal'
[19:08] <lapt0p> glitsj16: Crystal clear, thanks :)
[19:08] <RocketPenguin> NFD_,  I tried to get correct graphics drivers (Just recently moved the HDD to another computer) But i dont think i was successful.
[19:08] <glitsj16> :)
[19:09] <NFD_> hmm, try sudo apt-get reinstall [packagename]
[19:09] <NFD_> see if that'll fix your drivers?
[19:09] <RocketPenguin> NFD_, Packagename being...?
[19:10] <NFD_> assuming you're getting them through apt
[19:10] <Wizzikz> Is it possible to relocate File Folders, like Documents or Music, on a different partition or drive?
[19:10] <NFD_> how did you fetch your drivers?
[19:10] <RocketPenguin> I have AMD ATI Radeon HD 4xxx gpu
[19:10] <cezal> quit
[19:10] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, Have you tried catalyst legacy PPA?
[19:11] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash,  Yes, The issue with that is it comes up with an error, telling me to look in my jockey log
[19:11] <RocketPenguin> I tried to follow tutorials to solve the issue, with no luck.
[19:11] <NFD_> geirha: grepped for dbus, got a handful of results
[19:12] <RocketPenguin> I would like to install catalyst legacy ppa, but with my issue, and no tutorial solving it, i have come here for help on that to. :P
[19:12] <NFD_> geirha: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6485938/
[19:13] <NFD_> awesome master raec :P
[19:13] <Wizzikz> How do I relocate File Folders, like Documents or Music, on a different partition or drive?
[19:14] <NFD_> RocketPenguin: https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx there's instructions there
[19:15] <apofis> RocketPenguin: check this: http://www.ubuntuvibes.com/2012/10/how-to-install-amd-catalyst-legacy.html
[19:15] <apofis> RocketPenguin: no matter which version do u use I think ; in every case it should be very similar
[19:16] <apofis> btw: howdy :)
[19:16] <RocketPenguin> Hi.
[19:17] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[19:17] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, It looks like there is no legacy catalyst driver on 13.10
[19:17] <apofis> Wizzikz:  nano ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[19:17] <RocketPenguin> 13.04
[19:17] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, in fact, it appears that AMD doen't plan to ever release one either
[19:18] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash, I am using 13.04
[19:18] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx 13.04 is supported.
[19:19] <apofis> RocketPenguin: u can also check this page https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx

[19:20] <roger_> I'm Spanish
[19:23] <N5DUX> is there a way to specify a particular peripheral to always detect as the same /dev/ttyUSB* device?
[19:23] <N5DUX> i have 2 serial devices plugged into USB adapters and i don't want to have to manually figure out which is which everytime I boot up.
[19:26] <Guest72930> hello
[19:26] <geirha> NFD_: Assuming you're uid 1000, that looks right. Don't know what could be up then :/
[19:26] <NFD_> yeah, it's weird as hell
[19:27] <nishanth> anyone know how i can find out what login manager i am using?
[19:27] <mr-digital> hey can someone help me with 12.04LTS sometimes it runs very very very slow and ihave to reboot because it all becomes non responsive
[19:27] <winb> mr-digital: are you using the 64bit version?
[19:28] <mr-digital> how can i check?
[19:28] <mr-digital> i don
[19:28] <mr-digital> i don't remember which i did
[19:28] <apofis> mr-digital: sue top to check what you OS is actually doing ; dmesg; should be useful
[19:28] <NFD_> geirha: i am 1000
[19:29] <geirha> NFD_: Is your username really long?
[19:29] <RocketPenguin> Alright, I will restart, and be back!
[19:30] <mr-digital> 3.2.0-29-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:03:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[19:30] <mr-digital> i did a uname -a
[19:30] <imperito> Hello #ubuntu, I'm running a 64 bit Ubuntu 13.10 and I'm trying to install the 32 bit version of the nvidia driver to play a game, but I'm getting an error message. Google keeps telling me to install "ia32-libs" but that's apparently not a thing.
[19:30] <NFD_> geirha: odd question, not really. about 10 characters
[19:30] <geirha> NFD_: Ah ok, that's long enough for ps not wanting to output it
[19:30] <imperito> The command I'm trying is "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current:i386" and the error I'm getting is "nvidia-current:i386 : Depends: nvidia-304:i386 but it is not going to be installed"
[19:30] <zykotick9> imperito: ahhh installing a 32bit nvidia driver makes no sense... you'd also need a 32bit xorg for that to work...
[19:31] <NFD_> geirha: it's nine
[19:31] <Pici> zykotick9: and a 32bit kernel...
[19:31] <zykotick9> Pici: maybe...
[19:31] <imperito> Ah, how would I go about running a 32 bit opengl application on my system then?
[19:31] <jhutchins_wk> !multiarch
[19:31] <NFD_> ran ps, didn't see my username
[19:31] <geirha> NFD_: I think ps sets the limit at 8. If it's longer, it writes the uid instead, to avoid messing up the columns
[19:32] <zykotick9> jhutchins_wk: i searched for a multiarch factoid a while ago... i didn't find any ;)
[19:32] <NFD_> but that doesn't make sense
[19:32] <imperito> I was able to install the 32 bit version of SDL and libgtk by putting :i386 after the package name
[19:32] <Pici> imperito: YOu should just be able to use your normal drivers with that.
[19:32] <NFD_> lemme see, what flags should i throw at it?
[19:32] <jimgroth> Hi guys.
[19:33] <jimgroth> I've got a problem with samba. I got read-only access even though I've set it to write access (I think).
[19:33] <imperito> Perhaps I'm being imprecise. The driver isn't specifically the problem, it is the shared libraries that come with it
[19:34] <NFD_> geirha: yeah, it just says that stuff is being run by 1000 when i look at ps
[19:34] <imperito> If I try to run the application, it tells me it can't find a libGLU.so, which makes sense because I don't have a 32 bit version of it
[19:34] <NFD_> geirha: but how would that break NetworkManager?
[19:35] <zykotick9> imperito: (i see to recall, perhaps incorrectly) that it was possible to install some nvidia-glx 32bit package (that was back in the ugly ia32lib days)
[19:35] <geirha> NFD_: It wouldn't. I just wondered, since another cause for showing uid instead of username would be missing read permissions on the passwd database; which would cause all kinds of other trouble too
[19:36] <NFD_> gotcha
[19:38] <z800> Hi, is there any ncurses accounting program?
[19:38] <RocketPenguin> Well, that didnt go well
[19:38] <gordonjcp> z800: that sounds oddly specific, what exactly are you trying to do?
[19:39] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, what happened?
[19:39] <z800> gordonjcp, a program like ledger but ncurses like
[19:39] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash,  After the Error: File not found, press enter to continue popped up, as always, i get the black screen o' death
[19:40] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, I am afraid that isn't very descriptive.
[19:41] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, I can make educated guesses about what caused it, but you'd be better served getting the full error message
[19:41] <Pici> z800: I thought I saw something on a list of neat CLI tools... but it turns out that it was acutally just ledger itself.
[19:41] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash, I installed the graphic drivers. Rebooted, selected ubuntu from my multi boot list, the error "Error: File not found" Hit enter to continue popped up, the screen remained black
[19:41] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, You might also want to check /var/logs/Xorg.0.log
[19:41] <zykotick9> z800: you might do better asking in ##linux, #u isn't exactly too terminal-based ususally... best of luck.
[19:41] <z800> ok
[19:41] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash,  Except one thing. I can no longer boot into ubuntu
[19:42] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, That doesn't sound graphic card related.
[19:42] <TiZ> Hi. I'm having a problem with Xubuntu on my ASUS G46VW. Randomly when I log in, usually about 3/4ths of the time, I will just get a black screen and be unable to interact with the desktop. It doesn't seem that there's a particular problem with Xorg; lightdm works. And my applications have started; I can use my keyboard shortcuts to interact with my screen and keyboard backlights. But there is nothing displayed on the screen. It's all black.
[19:42] <TiZ> What do I do to fix this?
[19:42] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash, I had more than graphic card driver issues
[19:42] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, Yes, but this is an error before you even get to graphic boot
[19:42] <geekmasterflash> RocketPenguin, Grub is saying it can't find a file...
[19:43] <RocketPenguin> geekmasterflash, Yes.
