[00:16] <crouton-user> Hi. Would anyone be willing to help a keen to learn novice with an external ext4 hard drive partition that doesn't have exec privilidges?  I've tried just about everything.
[00:19] <zzxc> tables: Hmmmm
[00:20] <warlu> It's tried doing something on failsafeX, but it just dies right there.
[00:20] <zzxc> tables: I can think of any way right off.
[00:23] <warlu> Meh, I don't expect to be going far anyways.
[00:23] <mdev> mv: cannot move `msg0000.txt' to `msg0000.doc': Permission denied
[00:23] <mdev> what would cause that? i'm su'd
[00:24] <zzxc> warlu: What do you mean "enough though it displays perfectly well otherwise"
[00:24] <mdev> and sudo doesn't help either, why wouldn't I have permission?
[00:24] <zzxc> mdev: Funky. whats the ls -l on it?
[00:24] <warlu> The POST screen and BIOS setup show up. I wonder why it's JUST ubuntu
[00:25] <mdev> -rw-rw-r-- 1 nobody nogroup 352 Mar 10 14:33 msg0000.txt
[00:25] <zzxc> warlu: Did you install this after you install ubuntu, and do you still have another graphics card (ie intergrated)
[00:25] <warlu> Both, yes.
[00:25] <warlu> Just the int. graphics is 1MB and the dash home lags the crap out of it
[00:26] <zzxc> mdev: Welll thats funky.
[00:26] <mdev> can't chmod it either
[00:26] <mdev> definitely running under root too
[00:27] <zzxc> mdev, still question what happens if you do a chown?
[00:27] <mdev> give example please
[00:27] <mdev> not familiar with that one
[00:27] <crouton-user> Hi. Would anyone be willing to help a keen to learn novice with an external ext4 hard drive partition that doesn't have exec privilidges? Running crouton Ubuntu 13.10 on a Chromebook. I've tried the fixes that I've found online but although they don't give any error when I run them from terminal they don't seem to fix the permissions. I ideally want to change the permissions on one folder recursively
[00:27] <zzxc> warlu: Did you try plugging up through the port on the intergreated card?
[00:28] <zzxc> mdev chown root:admin msg0000.doc
[00:28] <warlu> Yes, and that boots fine as long as the BIOS is set to onboard/PEG
[00:28] <mdev> chown: invalid group: `root:admin'
[00:29] <fraq> try root:root
[00:29] <zzxc> mdev: what Fraq said
[00:29] <mdev> chown: changing ownership of `msg0000.txt': Operation not permitted
[00:29] <fraq> sudo !! now
[00:30] <warlu> I have an idea of what could fix this, but I do not have my installer drive handy.
[00:30] <zzxc> fraq he's already running as root
[00:30] <mdev> i'm under root, and sudo not changing the message
[00:30] <fraq> ack
[00:30] <fraq> hmm
[00:30] <mdev> lol at this untouchable file
[00:30] <fraq> for real
[00:30] <zzxc> warlu: Have you tried using jockey to install drivers for it?
[00:31] <fraq> can you chmod it instead of chowning?
[00:31] <zzxc> fraq: it also nobody as the owner and no group as the group
[00:31] <fraq> wtf
[00:31] <warlu> No, but it isn't detected at all when booting with onboard
[00:31] <zzxc> And no weird bit on the front either
[00:31] <fraq> cat file.txt > file.txt.new
[00:32] <fraq> rm -f file.txt
[00:32] <fraq> cat file.txt.new > file.txt
[00:32] <warlu> This is a straight PCI(not express) card, too
[00:32] <fraq> that might be a viable workaround
[00:32] <mdev> bash: msg0000.txt.new: Permission denied
[00:32] <mdev> for the cat
[00:32] <zzxc> warlu: Its been a while since I've worked with anything with a graphics card that isn;t a laptop.
[00:33] <zzxc> mdev: What it the filesystem?
[00:33] <warlu> Meh. I saw something on ubuntu forums on this. Will try with installer tomorrow.
[00:33] <latenite> Hi folks / devs, why does Ubuntu not have the "common" way of storing keymaps? like in https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9752563
[00:33] <fraq> mdev: what the heck is this for? this is an odd file
[00:33] <zzxc> warlu: Alright sorry I wasn't able to help
[00:33] <latenite> How what is the idea behind /etc/X11/xkb ?
[00:33] <mdev> [/sbin/fsck.ext4
[00:34] <zzxc> Bastad left before I could say buy
[00:34] <mdev> zzxc project i'm doing
[00:34] <mdev> for a client
[00:34] <fraq> and you said the owner and group are both Nobody?
[00:34] <fraq> can you su nobody?
[00:34] <zzxc> mmm? sorry?
[00:35] <mdev> yeah su nobody works haha
[00:35] <fraq> lol
[00:35] <wiak> xar-  still there?, am trying to figure out how to add version to this script https://paste.gparent.org/214 like lftp -v | head -n1 | awk '{print $4}' on the file and then add that to generated filename
[00:35] <zzxc> lol
[00:35] <fraq> can you cat the file now?
[00:35] <wiak> miau
[00:36] <zzxc> latenite: Ubuntu. You know I'm not sure there are ways to do it but its generally a pain.
[00:37] <mdev> nah can't cat or move it i've always been able to read it in nano or whatever
[00:37] <mdev> I wrote a file monitor was just trying to rename it to detect changes but clearly it's not gonna let me oh well
[00:37] <latenite> zzxc, ways to do "what" ? :D
[00:38] <fraq> mdev: and you can't even touch it as user nobody?
[00:40] <latenite>  Why is Ubuntu using /etc/X11/xkb ? instead of /etc/X11/keymaps ?
[00:40] <latenite> what is the /etc/X11/xkb structure about?
[00:40] <zubuntu> hi again
[00:41] <zzxc> mdev: Can you tell what the file system is formated as (like ext4 or fat)?
[00:41] <zubuntu> still boot doesnt work in ubuntu ?S
[00:42] <zubuntu> can somebody help me pl ?
[00:42] <zubuntu> s
[00:42] <zubuntu> boot menu doesnt show ubuntu
[00:43] <zubuntu> i installed windows 7 first and then ubuntu
[00:43] <zubuntu> but it boots to win 7 automatically
[00:43] <zubuntu> it doesnt show menu
[00:43] <crouton-user> Hi. Please help if possible. I'm trying to change my Steam install directory to an external drive formatted at ext4. It says it doesn't have exec privileges. The fixes I've found online don't seem to help, although I'm pretty inexperienced and don't really know what I'm doing. Can anyone spare 5 mins to help an idiot?
[00:43] <zubuntu> hello anybody ?
[00:44] <xparanoik> zubuntu do you know if your system runs on UEFI or legacy BIOS ?
[00:44] <zubuntu> how can i find out xparanoik ?
[00:44] <zubuntu> it has BIOS for sure
[00:45] <zubuntu> it s windows laptop
[00:45] <xparanoik> when you boot your computer you should be able to see it, if it is a pretty new laptop then it's probably UEFI
[00:45] <zubuntu> it s about 3-4 yrs old laptop
[00:45] <zubuntu> lenovo thinkpad edge 13
[00:46] <zubuntu> it was DOS free when i bought it
[00:46] <zubuntu> and i installed 7
[00:46] <zubuntu> now ubuntu
[00:46] <zubuntu> other day i formatted
[00:46] <zubuntu> and clean installed 7
[00:46] <zubuntu> and now ubuntu
[00:47] <zubuntu> it should show the menu to choose which OS to run in startup
[00:47] <zubuntu> but it doesnt show ?S
[00:47] <zubuntu> also i tried to run boot-repair in ubuntu live usb
[00:47] <xparanoik> that can happen when you install ubuntu and windows
[00:47] <zubuntu> it didnt work
[00:47] <xparanoik> it didn't? hmm
[00:47] <xparanoik> that's what I was going to suggest you do
[00:48] <zubuntu> it suppose to show me menu after repair finished and restarted but it s still same
[00:48] <xparanoik> check your bios and see if the ubuntu option is there (in case it's UEFI)
[00:48] <zubuntu> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[00:49] <zubuntu> xparanoik:  there s no ubuntu  option in bios
[00:50] <zubuntu> let me try this boot repair again
[00:51] <xparanoik> boot-repair has a couple of options, sometimes when there is an error you can try different options
[00:51] <zubuntu> which option to apply?
[00:51] <xparanoik> but if it's a legacy bios, then just installing grub on the MBR should suffice
[00:51] <zubuntu> recommended repair or advanced
[00:51] <xparanoik> recommended
[00:52] <zubuntu> it said installing grub while installing ubuntu already
[00:52] <xparanoik> later on there are a couple of options (i haven't done this in months)
[00:52] <zubuntu> let me try recommended repair then
[00:52] <zubuntu> it asks me something about pastebin
[00:53] <zubuntu> enabling bootinfo
[00:53] <zubuntu> wb Beldar
[00:53] <xparanoik> was there a message that you may want to try something else? i forgot what it's called
[00:53] <zubuntu> xparanoik:  -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7149048/
[00:54] <zubuntu> xparanoik:  it installed ubuntu without error
[00:54] <zubuntu> and boot-repair also didnt give error
[00:54] <zubuntu> Boot successfully repaired.  Please write on a paper the following URL: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7149048/
[00:55] <xparanoik> yes..
[00:55] <zubuntu> so what does that document mean _
[00:55] <zubuntu> ?
[00:55] <haT> hello
[00:56] <zubuntu> looks like everything is ok
[00:56] <xparanoik> zubuntu i didn't see any error messages, just info
[00:56] <haT> i need help
[00:56] <xparanoik> zubuntu see which boot options are available on your bios
[00:56] <zubuntu> so what should i do now ?
[00:56] <zubuntu> ah wait
[00:56] <amigamagic> I would like to say that the "deadline" I/O scheduling algorithm is a very bad choice for a standard ubuntu desktop distro
[00:56] <zubuntu> 1st boot device was set to usb to install windows and ubuntu
[00:56] <zubuntu> does it make sense to u xparanoik  ?
[00:57] <zubuntu> i should change it to HDD i think
[00:57] <xparanoik> yes
[00:57] <zubuntu> ok then
[00:57] <zubuntu> see u after restart
[00:58] <amigamagic> on my system, the responsiveness of the gui (ubuntu 12.04 LTS) was very VERY bad when there were consistent hard disk operations...
[00:58] <amigamagic> sorry, the gui is gnome classic, the system is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[00:58] <haT> hey guys in the terminal, this is my name montre@linx:~/home$
[00:59] <haT> if i want to change the linx part
[00:59] <haT> how do i do it ?
[00:59] <xparanoik> haT http://askubuntu.com/questions/87665/how-do-i-change-the-hostname-without-a-restart
[00:59] <amigamagic> I solved the problem by changing the I/O scheduling to the classic CFQ... Now is near responsive as a Windows machine
[01:00] <haT> ohh ok
[01:00] <amigamagic> I think "deadline" scheduling algorithm is best suited for very fast SSD hard drive or for database servers
[01:00] <haT> so that's the host name
[01:00] <amigamagic> but it shouldn't be the "default" scheduling of a normal ubuntu distro!
[01:00] <zubuntu> xparanoik:  are u there ?
[01:01] <zubuntu> it works now :)
[01:01] <zubuntu> GRUB bootloader menu
[01:01] <zubuntu> is it possible to turn it back to windows bootloader menu ?
[01:03] <lorenzo> hi! do you know if mate 1.8 is in the repos?
[01:04] <zubuntu> is there a way to go back to normal boot startup menu  instead of GRUB ?
[01:05] <amigamagic> zubuntu: http://superuser.com/questions/499675/how-to-restore-windows-8-gui-boot-loader-after-installing-windows-7
[01:06] <amigamagic> I don't know if it could be helping you, but maybe you can try
[01:06] <lorenzo> also , what would you recommend for mint? install a plain ubuntu first then mint on it?
[01:07] <zubuntu> thx amigamagic
[01:07] <zubuntu> see u later :)
[01:07] <zubuntu> thx for everything guys
[01:07] <zubuntu> u r nice ppl
[01:08] <amigamagic> lorenzo, mint is not ubuntu
[01:08] <amigamagic> linux mint is another distro
[01:08] <lorenzo> aeeh sorry :D
[01:08] <lorenzo> for mate
[01:08] <lorenzo> it's 2 am here
[01:08] <amigamagic> yes I know
[01:08] <amigamagic> :D
[01:08] <amigamagic> I'm from IT too
[01:08] <lorenzo> ah nice
[01:09] <Sir_Leto> Anyone familiar with boot-repair
[01:09] <amigamagic> I tried to install cinnamon after ubuntu, but it was very bad... Many icons and various things missing
[01:10] <amigamagic> (or maybe it was mate desktop, I don't remember)
[01:10] <Beldar> amigamagic, Which ubuntu release was this?
[01:10] <lorenzo> well I'll try, the night is long
[01:10] <lorenzo> :>
[01:10] <amigamagic> Beldar ubuntu is 12.04 LTS
[01:11] <amigamagic> now I remember: it was cinnamon
[01:11] <amigamagic> after installing it from an ubuntu 12.04 LTS reverted to gnome classic, the cinnamon start menu was very bad
[01:11] <amigamagic> with many icons missing
[01:12] <Beldar> amigamagic, Neither mate nor cinnamon were in the 12.04 repos, those were *PPA's not supported here, and it does not help to make random this didn't work minus a context.
[01:13] <amigamagic> Beldar, it wasn't a critic at ubuntu
[01:14] <amigamagic> it was only an observation from my experience on installing it
[01:14] <Beldar> amigamagic, No biggie, however my point is, this is support not your blog.
[01:14] <amigamagic> the critic that I address to ubuntu 12.04 LTS is the 'deadline' I/O scheduler
[01:15] <amigamagic> is very bad for a desktop machine with a traditional hard disk (not SSD)
[01:16] <amigamagic> try to revert to a more classic CFQ scheduler and you will see BIG improvements in responsiveness when you copy some big file or watch some videos
[01:16] <lorenzo> amigamagic, where did you learn those things?
[01:16] <lorenzo> I barely know what a scheduler does
[01:17] <amigamagic> lorenzo, there was a time when I modded the linux scheduler
[01:17] <amigamagic> for an exam at my university
[01:17] <nreynolds_> hi\
[01:17] <nreynolds_> hi
[01:17] <amigamagic> but it was MANY years ago
[01:18] <amigamagic> now I'm doing all my research using google and experimenting myself... :D
[01:18] <nreynolds_> anyone here have some experience with ubuntu studio 13.10,  the ubuntu studio channel is dead
[01:18] <lorenzo> nice :D
[01:19] <amigamagic> lorenzo, the problem is that I couldn't accept that a Windows machine could be MUCH faster than a Linux machine
[01:19] <amigamagic> at basic tasks
[01:19] <amigamagic> like copy a big file
[01:20] <Beldar> nreynolds_, There is this channel too, #opensourcemusicians
[01:20] <amigamagic> so, I googled, tried messing with system options and configuration files, and I found that the default I/O scheduler of Ubuntu 12.04 was very bad for a desktop distro
[01:21] <Laslo7> Is there a better RDP client than remmina?
[01:21] <lorenzo> Laslo7, try vinagra
[01:21] <nreynolds_> is this the support channel for ubuntu?
[01:21] <amigamagic> I use X2GO as server and client
[01:21] <lorenzo> Laslo7, * vinagre
[01:21] <amigamagic> very fast
[01:22] <lorenzo> remmina works fine here, besides from some issues with Windows Server 2012
[01:22] <nreynolds_> Beldar, I have more of a ubuntu question then a A/V based question
[01:23] <Laslo7> I have been using remmina.  I just reinstalled and thought to see if there were better options
[01:23] <lorenzo> Laslo7, if it works, stick with it
[01:23] <lorenzo> I use it on a daily basis and it's quite nice once you set it up with favourites
[01:24] <Laslo7> Thanks for the info.
[01:24] <nreynolds_> I installed ubuntu studio 13.10 to take advantage of the tweaks already in place, however I want to use Unity as my daily DE, I've run into some problems
[01:25] <boyle> 有人？
[01:25] <amigamagic> if by chance someone want to check what I/O scheduler your ubuntu uses, you can do the following: "cat /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler"
[01:25] <nreynolds_> Anyone else tried installing unity under Ubuntu Studio 13.10
[01:27] <Laslo7> amigamagic: noop [deadline] cfq
[01:27] <amigamagic> Laslo7 so you use 'deadline' scheduler
[01:27] <amigamagic> that is very bad for normal hdd
[01:28] <amigamagic> if you have an SSD drive, then it's good
[01:28] <Laslo7> I am running a SSD
[01:28] <RefinersFire> I am having an odd problem with Ubuntu Server 12.04... I can't wget or ping ANY .org addresses... I have tried .com and .net and they're okay, but NO .org will work... I get, "wget: unable to resolve host address `owncloud.org' " or whatever address I try.
[01:30] <lorenzo> RefinersFire, other machines working fine?
[01:30] <RefinersFire> yes
[01:31] <amigamagic> I think Ubuntu distros should stick with a solid cfq scheduler. Maybe it should automatically change to a deadline scheduler only if the system detects you are using an ssd drive.
[01:31] <lorenzo> RefinersFire, looks like a bad dns server to me
[01:32] <lorenzo> try adding <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> or other (like opendns)
[01:32] <lorenzo> in your network config
[01:32] <Laslo7> The <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> are google's dns servers
[01:33] <RefinersFire> I will try lorenzo
[01:33] <lorenzo> yes
[01:33] <lorenzo> Laslo7, that's why I said "or other"
[01:34] <amigamagic> if someone want to check "in realtime" (without reset your pc) if another I/O scheduler is better for your system, it's very easy: "echo cfq > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler" and you will use cfq instead of deadline scheduler.
[01:35] <amigamagic> but you should change /etc/default/grub too if you want to make the change permanent
[01:36] <zubuntu> hi
[01:36] <zubuntu> again me
[01:36] <amigamagic> who are you?
[01:36] <amigamagic> :D
[01:36] <zubuntu> lol
[01:36] <zubuntu> :)
[01:36] <zubuntu> amigamagic:  :p
[01:36] <zubuntu> to install gnome look for 12.04
[01:37] <zubuntu> what do u suggest me ?
[01:37] <zubuntu> sudo apt-get install gnome-session-fallback  ?
[01:37] <Laslo7> lorenzo: Nothing wrong with them, I use them myself.  Just wanted to make sure RefinersFire knew they were ok
[01:37] <amigamagic> zubuntu, yes
[01:37] <amigamagic> and I would do: "sudo apt-get ubuntu-tweak" too
[01:37] <zubuntu> ok let me do that
[01:37] <zubuntu> does ubuntu support gnome officially ?
[01:38] <zubuntu> again ?
[01:38] <RefinersFire> My server settings are the same as my Mint desktop and only the server cannot access .org addresses
[01:38] <amigamagic> zubuntu, unity use gnome
[01:38] <amigamagic> so gnome is supported
[01:38] <zubuntu> amigamagic:  it s not gnome :p
[01:38] <zubuntu> lol
[01:38] <zubuntu> i mean it s ugly :S
[01:38] <amigamagic> zubuntu what I mean it's that unity is based on gnome
[01:38] <zubuntu> yea i got it
[01:39] <zubuntu> but i really miss gnome 2 classic interface :S
[01:39] <Sir_Leto> ^
[01:39] <amigamagic> anyway gnome-session-fallback is in the official repository, so it's supported
[01:39] <zubuntu> so it will get the updates automatically ?
[01:39] <amigamagic> yes
[01:39] <zubuntu> another question
[01:39] <zubuntu> open office vs libreoffice
[01:39] <zubuntu> which one is better ?
[01:40] <zubuntu> i love openoffice more
[01:40] <amigamagic> so use openoffice
[01:40] <zubuntu> how will i install ?
[01:40] <amigamagic> I don't know
[01:40] <zubuntu> and how about its support and updates ?
[01:40] <lorenzo> zubuntu, libreoffice should be more developed and supported
[01:40] <lorenzo> wow ubuntu 13.10 boot time is blazing fast :O
[01:41] <amigamagic> libreoffice is very very fast in ubuntu
[01:41] <zubuntu> lorenzo:  it s new and supported i know but it looks ugly :S
[01:41] <amigamagic> I think openoffice is the same thing
[01:41] <amigamagic> but libreoffice is what ubuntu uses
[01:41] <amigamagic> as a default office app
[01:41] <zubuntu> by the way amigamagic sudo apt-get ubuntu-tweak  ->>  E: Invalid operation ubuntu-tweak
[01:41] <saiarcot895> libreoffice is a (IMO, more developed) fork of openoffice
[01:41] <saiarcot895> zubuntu: you forgot "install"
[01:42] <zubuntu> ah
[01:42] <zubuntu> sorry
[01:42] <zubuntu> well openoffice was much more good once
[01:42] <zubuntu> when ppl stopped developing it
[01:42] <amigamagic> sorry, I forget install
[01:42] <zubuntu> libre got its place unfortunately
[01:42] <zubuntu> after 10.10  i didnt install ubuntu also
[01:43] <amigamagic> on windows openoffice is faster at first loading
[01:43] <amigamagic> so I prefer openoffice on windows
[01:43] <zubuntu> but i want to use it again
[01:43] <amigamagic> but on linux I think they are the same thing
[01:43] <zubuntu> with gnome ofcourse :S
[01:43] <zubuntu> amigamagic:  yes but maybe i care about appearance :p
[01:43] <Sir_Leto> Does open offie not have a prreloading application in linux?
[01:43] <zubuntu> openoffice was looking more professional in my eyes
[01:43] <Sir_Leto> and what about lubre office?
[01:43] <zubuntu> Sir_Leto:  nope
[01:44] <Sir_Leto> *libre
[01:44] <zubuntu> u need to download and install manually

[01:47] <zubuntu> amigamagic:  :/
[01:47] <amigamagic> lorenzo, what de are you using?
[01:47] <amigamagic> zubuntu, on my ubuntu 12.04 lts it works
[01:47] <zubuntu> i am using 12.04 too but why is it giving error ?
[01:48] <amigamagic> try with ubuntu software center
[01:48] <varunendra> Beldar, looks like the bot is not working properly :(
[01:48] <amigamagic> maybe the bot hates unity
[01:48] <amigamagic> :D
[01:48] <zubuntu> i need to install PPA first
[01:49] <varunendra> lorenzo, why not ask your question directly?
[01:49] <Beldar> that or the punctuation broke it, ;)
[01:49] <varunendra> Beldar, I just tried many known keywords, so unless I'm making the same mistakes.. :p

[01:50] <zubuntu> thx amigamagic  :)
[01:50] <amigamagic> you are right, it's not in the official repo
[01:50] <amigamagic> I forgot
[01:50] <amigamagic> but I suggest you to install it, because with it you can place icons on your desktop, like the Trashbin, computer, home, etc.
[01:50] <amigamagic> and you can change themes
[01:51] <amigamagic> and many other things
[01:51] <zubuntu> wow
[01:52] <zubuntu> i want that too
[01:52] <zubuntu> as ex ubuntu versions
[01:52] <zubuntu> desktop icons
[01:52] <amigamagic> yes you can if you install the right theme package
[01:53] <zubuntu> should i install theme ?
[01:53] <zubuntu> grrr really
[01:53] <zubuntu> why doesnt ubuntu put gnome look as an option in system ?
[01:53] <zubuntu> they should let ppl to choose what to use
[01:53] <zubuntu> like windows put classic theme
[01:55] <zubuntu> what do u use currently amigamagic  ?
[01:55] <zubuntu> unity or gnome?
[01:56] <amigamagic> to me, Unity is a desktop manager too simple and rigid
[01:57] <amigamagic> so, I stick with the classic gnome
[01:57] <zubuntu> i need to find out how to use ubuntu tweak

[02:07] <adrenalink> Hello! This is a tricky issue: I have an ubuntu installation on a hard disk A and a debian installation in hard disk B.  Each hard disk has a bootloader installed on it, so that changing boot priority from bios let me load the bootloader from hard disk A or B. THE QUESTION is: Why the Ubuntu partition give me an error on mounting its /home while the debian one start successfully?
[02:07] <googcheng> hi, all! how to degrade 12.04.4 to 12.04.3?
[02:08] <Beldar> googcheng, No standard way.
[02:08] <googcheng> Beldar, is there a way
[02:09] <Callen> wipe and start over id assume
[02:09] <Beldar> googcheng, Not that I know of.
[02:09] <varunendra> googcheng, perhaps something 'similar' is possible, depending upon why you need it.
[02:11] <thoonai> heyho, I want to execute a command as another user with sudo. Now I have two questions: 1. where do I can find some good example rules? 2. Can I get the user id from the user which is executing the sudo foobar command?
[02:11] <googcheng> varunendra, i run 12.04.4 now but graph image broken, the kernel is 3.10.18
[02:14] <varunendra> googcheng, looks like you did an 'upgrade', because the point-release of 12.04.4 comes with kernel 3.11

[02:18] <day> hey guys - I'm trying out ubuntu for the first time.
[02:19] <day> I'm cloning a drive with dd - but apparently I need to be root?
[02:20] <googcheng> ubottu,  i could go into the os , but unity application logo lost and the background becomes blue
[02:21] <Callen> its always a bot
[02:21] <googcheng> haha
[02:22] <varunendra> googcheng, if you can boot into "Recovery mode", maybe a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" could fix it for you. Just a guess.
[02:22] <googcheng> thx
[02:35] <owen1> how to use my .Xdefaults file in ubuntu? (coming from debian)
[02:39] <basketball> ~.Xdefaults
[02:39] <basketball> !.Xdefaults
[02:40] <owen1> basketball: ?
[02:40] <basketball>  owen1  idk sorry i was just checking
[02:44] <owen1> i have to use it since i use solarized colorscheme - http://askubuntu.com/questions/302736/solarized-color-name-not-defined
[02:45] <owen1> but i don't think it's being applied. my terminal background color is still the default (purple)
[02:46] <davidrsmorris> Hey, I'm using a non-unity tray, and I'm trying to stop Skype 4.2 from showing its ugly lime icon.  I've uninstalled sni-qt, set up an apparmor profile, and Skype is still setting up an icon.  Help?
[02:46] <elementary> ...
[02:46] <elementary> pls help!
[02:46] <elementary> Can anyone help me?
 are you using gnome-terminal?  I always set its colors through the menus.
[02:47] <smacktalk> if I wanted to rdp from one ubuntu box to another, how would I do that?
[02:47] <elementary> im that noob that comes daily (i guess im not the first one asking for help here)
[02:47] <smacktalk> I have an ubuntu vm I'd like to rdp to...
[02:47] <davidrsmorris> elementary: ask away!  (we generally ask without asking, saves lines on chat)
[02:47] <elementary> Hmm..
[02:47] <basketball> !help | elementary
[02:47] <smacktalk> !help | rdp
[02:47] <Zoidberg2> lol
[02:48] <Zoidberg2> i like the !help thingy
[02:48] <owen1> davidrsmorris: i do, but i don't want to. i would like to use xterm. how do i change that?
[02:48] <davidrsmorris> owen1: Xdefaults.
[02:49] <elementary> I had Windows 8 and Ubuntu, I deleted Ubuntu, Grub Rescue error, did Boot-repair recommended option from live usb (it says I have legacy mode activated), and now I have the error Such device not found (grub rescue too). Im using Elementary OS live usb. What should I do?
[02:49] <kostkon> davidrsmorris, which tray then
[02:50] <Bruno_Cavalcanti> start boot live-cd an start the command update-grub
[02:50] <elementary> hmm... boot live-cd?
[02:50] <Bruno_Cavalcanti> or live-usb
[02:50] <davidrsmorris> kostkon: Awesomewm's awful.widget.systray
[02:50] <Beldar> elementary, What is the end goal?
[02:51] <elementary> Having my windows 8 and my elementary OS.
[02:51] <kostkon> davidrsmorris, ok
[02:51] <Beldar> Bruno_Cavalcanti, update-grub on a live cd does nothing
[02:51] <elementary> elementary@elementary:~$ update-grub
[02:51] <elementary> grub-mkconfig: You must run this as root
[02:51] <Beldar> elementary, This is not elementary support, they have a channel.
[02:52] <elementary> I supposed it was the same.
[02:52] <elementary> So I should ask there? Because I think this error is common.
[02:52] <davidrsmorris> owen1: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/rxvt-unicode gotta love archwiki.  xterm shares most options and xdefaults switches with urxvt, which you should look at for a minimal term
[02:53] <Beldar> elementary, ubuntu derivatives are not supported here is all, grub is in like most of linux.
[02:53] <owen1> davidrsmorris: i'll try that if xterm will fail me.
[02:54] <elementary> But what can I do with this grub problem.
[02:54] <Beldar> elementary, Not ask here unless you are running ubuntu.
[02:54] <kostkon> !elementary
[02:54] <elementary> oh.
[02:55] <smacktalk> does anyone use the vnc console to get the rdp experience between linux hosts?
[02:55] <Bruno_Cavalcanti> if elementary use the grub repair the system on a recovery mode updating the grub
[02:56] <davidrsmorris> owen1: this should show some of the differences from that urxvt article I sent: http://j.rigelseven.com/read/55816/
[02:59] <owen1> davidrsmorris: wow. i'll read that tonigth

[03:04] <cfoch> There's going to be a Ubuntu Global Jam in my city and I want to solve a fck(#$(#$ bug :)
[03:06] <cfoch> I don't use Ubuntu for 1 year. But I was thinking on installing Ubuntu as my second OS.
[03:06] <kostkon> cfoch, start from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGlobalJam

[03:08] <demophobia> How do I see how much free space is on my iPod?
[03:10] <kostkon> demophobia, file -> properties maybe, in nautilus
[03:10] <cfoch> Do that guide explain me  what does mean to solve a bug in Ubuntu? I mean... I could solve a bug in gnome-terminal for example, but doing it I've solved a bug in Ubuntu exactly or in GNOME?
[03:11] <demophobia> kostkon, not sure of the location, it's afc://[stuff]
[03:12] <kostkon> demophobia, afc? no idea about that. can you browse its contents with nautilus
[03:13] <demophobia> yes
[03:13] <kostkon> demophobia, is there a menu option File -> properties when browsing your ipod

[05:21] <fiasco_averted> I have two-factor authentication setup in Ubuntu 13.10 using pam.d and google-auth. It prompts me for username then password then two-factor-auth token. I'd like it to only be two total prompts, one for username, and one for password+2FA-token
[05:22] <fiasco_averted> any idea how to set that up? I assume it's a line or two in /etc/pam.d/sshd, but after trying a few examples from blog posts and reading the man page on pam.d I haven't found a working solution.

[06:09] <James116> Hey, anyone know a way to get an Ultra USB Wireless card working on Ubuntu? Note: I've been using Ubuntu for like an hour.
[06:10] <happyfr0gg> James116 - What is the model number of the card in question? I will try to look it up for you.
[06:11] <James116> U12-42422 is the part number.
[06:11] <James116> I tried google to the full extent of wht seemed relevent. =/
[06:12] <cfhowlett> James116, wifi dongles are cheap.  might be easier overall to just amazon a known compatible replacement
[06:13] <happyfr0gg> James116 - is it currently plugged in?
[06:14] <James116> Yes. Currently plugged in. The included driver wont instal though.
[06:14] <happyfr0gg> give me a minute or so.
[06:14] <James116> Thank you. =D
[06:17] <happyfr0gg> James116 - find out which wireless interfaces are available by running iwconfig in terminal.

[06:21] <cfhowlett> Guest82305, "the linux command line" http://www.linuxine.com/linuxbooks
[06:22] <happyfr0gg> Guest82305 - look on amazon and read the reviews about various Bash books.
[06:23] <Guest82305> ok
[06:23] <owen1> i use i3 and would like to enjoy wirless connection. i tried running wicd but i see: 'starting network connetion manager wicd ...fail' any ideas?
[06:24] <happyfr0gg> Also, physically visit a Barnes and Noble store and see which books you find easier to understand. Each author has a different writing style than most others.
[06:24] <Guest82305> can i devlop a gui application with bash
[06:24] <Guest82305> is zenity will support that much
[06:24] <Guest82305> ?
[06:25] <happyfr0gg> I don't know anything about Bash.
[06:26] <xizdaqrian> Zenity is good for simple dialogs and stuff. It depends upon how complex your app is going to be.
[06:26] <happyfr0gg> James116 - are you still on and available?
[06:27] <James116> Just got back.
[06:27] <happyfr0gg> Okay.

[06:28] <James116> It's identified to card, but now I'm having a diferent issue which I think is hardware related.
[06:29] <cfhowlett> !indonesia|cakrananda,

[06:29] <prem> hi all
[06:29] <rww> hi avis
[06:29] <rww> hi prem
[06:29] <happyfr0gg> James116 - does iwconfig recognize your card in question?
[06:29] <prem> how can i open and edit 3dXMl files created using CATIA in ubuntu
[06:29] <prem> which application i have use for this ?
[06:31] <James116> Yes. I believe that's what I got into, and I must have activated it somehow, I see the ability to connect to the wireless network.
[06:31] <James116> However, my keyboard seems to have crapped out, so I cant take the next step.
[06:31] <prem> does anyone know how to open and edit 3dXML files in ubuntu
[06:32] <rotrot> prem: that's Microsoft trash
[06:33] <prem> rotrot, may b but that is needed
[06:33] <prem> what is the option?
[06:33] <cfhowlett> prem, glc player
[06:34] <rotrot> prem: try Firefox. Maybe a Firefox addon?
[06:34] <prem> cfhowlett, glcplayer helps to open the file., but for editing ?
[06:35] <cfhowlett> prem, blender possibly
[06:35] <James116> But thank you for the help Happyfr0gg. I'll plug a new one in tomorrow and see what happens.
[06:37] <Dylan_> I currently have two keyboard input methods for English and German. How do I enable switching between them with a keyboard shortcut (preferrably ALT+SHIFT_L)?
[06:38] <rotrot> prem: virtualbox, maybe winehq.
[06:38] <prem> rotrot, no i want it in linux only
[06:38] <prem> no windows variants
[06:39] <rotrot> prem: it's proprietary Windows trash. Maybe convert it online somehow.
[06:40] <prem> rotrot, in that case is there any conversion tool available in ubuntu ., instead of going online?
[06:41] <cfhowlett> prem, I guess you didnt' see: BLENDER
[06:41] <happyfr0gg> rotrot - what is it that you thought about converting online?
[06:43] <rotrot> happyfr0gg: prem has a 3dxml file. Similar to a cad file. Its proprietary
[06:44] <rotrot> prem: checkout meshlab

[07:06] <FallenMirror> Hello, I have a quick question.
[07:06] <cfhowlett> !ask|FallenMirror,
[07:06] <FallenMirror> How can I avoid the password petition always?
[07:06] <FallenMirror> I mean, when I install a program or whatever.
[07:07] <FallenMirror> Is there any option to stop that?
[07:08] <cfhowlett> FallenMirror, password level privilege is there for your protection.  disable at your own risk.
[07:08] <FallenMirror> But how to disable.
[07:10] <snufft> hi guys!
[07:12] <guest0292> Using Lubuntu 13.04 and updated the system using sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.  Is dist-upgrade recommended or dangerous?   I notice my firefox browser keeps crashing now, but the other apps seem to be working ok.
[07:12] <sohail-ahmed> how can I restart a network when no network-manager?
[07:13] <FallenMirror> how can i breath?
[07:13] <cfhowlett> guest0292, dist-upgrade brings all installed packages to the current repo release.  It's not *generally* dangerous and is a recommended practice.

[07:29] <bluefrog> sohail-ahmed, if you can ping a domain but cannot not open it in firefox, you should be aable to use apt-get
[07:30] <cfhowlett> grek, that is not a standard kernel for sure ...
[07:30] <sohail-ahmed> bluefrog, are you sure????
[07:30] <bluefrog> certain
[07:30] <sohail-ahmed> thanks but what might be causing the problem.
[07:30] <sohail-ahmed> ?
[07:30] <cfhowlett> grek,  and virtualbox requires a windows manaqer to run.
[07:30] <grek> so how to replace to standat kernel
[07:30] <bluefrog> if you can ping a domain, it means the name resolution is working
[07:31] <cfhowlett> grek, reboot to an older kernel version
[07:31] <sohail-ahmed> yes I have manualy configured resolv.conf
[07:31] <grek> no virtual box  they have php front https://sourceforge.net/p/phpvirtualbox/
[07:31] <bluefrog> sohail-ahmed, have a look inside firefox preferences / connection tab. remove proxy and such
[07:31] <grek> but how to select it - this is remote server - i dont see boot window :)
[07:31] <sohail-ahmed> ok. shutting down the live usb session
[07:31] <sohail-ahmed> brb
[07:32] <grek> i can reboot but they select default
[07:32] <cfhowlett> grek, when grub comes up, select advanced options and use the older kernel or pass the kernel boot option
[07:32] <cfhowlett> !kernel
[07:33] <grek> this is remote sever i dont see grub - this computer dont have monitor this is dedicated server on OVH
[07:33] <cfhowlett> grek, ask #ubuntu-server     sorry, never done what you're trying ...
[07:35] <grek> ok

[07:40] <bluefrog> thoonai, man sudoers
[07:41] <thoonai> bluefrog: man sudoers is a bit cryptic ^^

[08:19] <iancurtis> giggsey, can you make a current partition smaller to free up space?

[08:20] <raggg> my install is taking up a lot more space than I would normally expect, what could be wrong?
[08:20] <iancurtis> It depends on the virtual hdd, I would imagine, raggg
[08:20] <cfhowlett> herol3oy, boot a liveusb session, mount the partition and navigate to /windows.  copy data to USB

[08:21] <thoonai> whats the sudoers entry for: user a can execute only <onlythiscommand> as user b?
[08:21] <iancurtis> Isn't there a setting in the Unity tweak tool for that? |usefedora
[08:21] <thoonai> man sudoers is a bit cryptic about that
[08:22] <|usefedora> iancurtis: well, i'm on server edition, so no unity to speak of, unfortunately.
[08:22] <giggsey> iancurtis, I'd rather not reboot into a livecd

[08:33] <Segaja> hi, for a while now i have a problem when running apt-get upgrade because procps doesn't want to upgrade. i have an Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS and the result I get is this: http://pastie.org/private/psramiobh1zx0zb0pvrkw
[08:34] <guest3780> ever since i apt-get dist-upgrade my system it's acting wierd.   When I generate a md5sum of an iso image it outputs a different sum each time.  What's wrong?
[08:34] <cfhowlett> Segaja, "fork is not configured yet" package manager will have to fix.
[08:35] <cfhowlett> guest3780, I'm guessing you're doing a direct download of the ISO???
[08:35] <Segaja> cfhowlett: the problem starts with procps
[08:35] <Segaja> all depends on that. the problem is that now my apache is dead
[08:36] <cfhowlett> Segaja, over my head ....
[08:36] <cfhowlett> sorrry
[08:39] <raggg> df -h reports 8.5G used but the disk image is 22gb???
[08:39] <cfhowlett> raggg, NO ubuntu image is 22g ...
[08:39] <raggg> cfhowlett: then what is going on :(
[08:40] <cfhowlett> raggg, you've not shared enough details to guess ...

[08:41] <prainworker> jep
[08:41] <somsip> prainworker: use #ubuntu+1 then, as you've been told before
[08:41] <prainworker> sorry somsip
[08:41] <Segaja> cfhowlett: lol i fixed it by moving the procps config to procps.conf.old and then tried the update again
[08:41] <raggg> cfhowlett: i've installed eclipse and some libs i need to work, and suddenly vmware is reporting the disk image is 22gb, lxde for most files says size on disk is about 10x larger than size of files
[08:42] <cfhowlett> Segaja, nicely done!
[08:42] <xreal> Why has auFS and OverlayFS support been dropped in ubuntu kernel 3.13?
[08:42] <Segaja> cfhowlett: the thanks goes to google :D
[08:42] <cfhowlett> Segaja, lol.  good job anyway
[08:42] <Segaja> or better yet the askubuntu forum
[08:43] <cfhowlett> raggg, over my head, askubuntu forums with this question?
[08:44] <raggg> cfhowlett: will do thanks anyways
[08:46] <guest3780> cfhowlett:  Yes i downloaded the iso using wget and completed.  Then md5sum kept displaying different sums each time i tested it.  Can't figure out why, unless my system corrupted.  I did "apt-get dist-upgrade" my system previously.
[08:47] <sudosandwich> hey there everyone
[08:47] <cfhowlett> guest3780, I'd suggest you torrent the ISO - integrity protection generally is much more robust
[08:48] <sudosandwich> so, I unfortunately have a non-ubuntu *nix OS issue, and I was hoping a kind soul here might be able to help :D
[08:48] <cfhowlett> guest3780, different sum checks indicate that the ISO is indeed scrambled
[08:48] <cfhowlett> sudosandwich, we can't help with non-ubuntu OS issues
[08:49] <cagritepebasili> what do u think about ubuntu studio have u tried yet
[08:49] <zombie568> ping
[08:49] <zombie568> ping
[08:50] <sudosandwich> oh, even though it should be the same command in my *nix emergency console? Because I just need to know the name of one command but I forgot what it was :<
[08:50] <sudosandwich> if you still can't helkp that's fine though
[08:50] <cfhowlett> cagritepebasili, do you have an specific question about ubuntustudio?
[08:50] <cfhowlett> !studio|cagritepebasili,
[08:51] <cagritepebasili> oh, i dont have spesific question but ill usin linux for development
[08:52] <cagritepebasili> ubuntu studio seems nice but it has any spesific thing
[08:52] <cagritepebasili> i mean
[08:52] <cagritepebasili> why should i use ubuntu studio
[08:52] <cagritepebasili> is there any diffrent between other versions of ubuntu
[08:53] <cfhowlett> cagritepebasili, come over to #ubuntustudio
[08:53] <cagritepebasili> oh sory okay
[08:54] <cfhowlett> cagritepebinasili, no worries.  see you in the other channel
[08:55] <guest3780> cagritepebasili:  ubuntu studio is more for media production although you can download the exact same applications in a regular ubuntu.
[08:58] <taropalo> I think big difference comes that studio is shipped with real time kernel

[09:43] <guest0292> If i include /home in the same partition as the system, will it eventually corrupt the system (because /home data is constantly being written to the disk more than the system)??

[09:44] <KingArthur55> Hi all!
[09:45] <SAM____> join#ubuntu-fr
[09:45] <guest0292> is the xx.04 versions of ubuntu less stable than the xx.10 versions?  The reason I ask is i installed 13.04 and not long after updates were no longer supported and the system corrupted.
[09:45] <KingArthur55> could you please tell me how to configure SendMail in order to avoid every time to insert every domain I want to forward mail inside Relay Domains (CR) ?
[09:47] <guest0292> Seems to me that ubuntu is destined to corrupt soon as updates stop being released (18 months or so?) causing the user to have to re-install every 18 months.
[09:47] <Little-Chip> so.. I need try to update my BIOS...?
[09:47] <iwantoski> if I have two directories. Both have could (do) have the same sub-directories, and both do have exclusive directories with contents (files). How can I merge two directories contents into a third destination?
[09:47] <bluefrog> guest0292, use LTS version and you will be cool
[09:49] <bluefrog> iwantoski, mv dir1/* dir2
[09:49] <guest0292> are .04 releases experimental?   Which are more stable .04 or .10 versions?
[09:49] <bluefrog> iwantoski, mv dir1/* dir2/.
[09:50] <guest0292> my 13.04 only lasted a few days before it corrupted after updates.
[09:50] <iwantoski> bluefrog: thanks - that won't override files or directories?
[09:50] <bluefrog> iwantoski, make  a small test to be sure first...
[09:50] <iwantoski> bluefrog: I will!
[09:50] <bluefrog> guest0292, 14.04 is the next LTS
[09:54] <greyhatpython> Hi Guys i hate red hat, is there anyway to get certified in Debian/Ubuntu Linux?
[09:58] <bluefrog> greyhatpython, write canonical to find out
[09:59] <Emily92> had an accident this morning and forgot the command to delete this directory test6467 in /var/www/tes6467
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> greyhatpython: yes
[09:59] <greyhatpython> well what others doing? Nobody is thinking like me in this world?
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> Emily92: sudo rm -r /var/www/tes6467    will delete the 'tes6467' folder and it's subfolders
[09:59] <bluefrog> greyhatpython, even better, search google and find... http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntucert
[10:00] <greyhatpython> that page is outdated
[10:00] <Emily92> ActionParsnip thanks babe
[10:00] <KingArthur55> guys is there someone knows how to configure SendMail in order to avoid every time to insert every domain I want to forward mail inside Relay Domains (CR) ?
[10:01] <uncle_ben> i don't know much about routers. there is a direct cable connection from outlet to modem, ethernet cable to computer. i want to connect a router to the modem for wifi access for my phone, but i don't want to change the ethernet connection to my computer...can i do this?
[10:07] <KyouReeUs4nfo> uncle_ben: try ##networking
[10:08] <uncle_ben> KyouReeUs4nfo, ok thanks
[10:12] <dreamer> hi all, one of my desktops running 13.04 has a firefox (26.0) that instantly segfaults. reinstall of the package didn't fix it, so now I'm dead in the water. any ideas on how to debug/fix?
[10:14] <cfhowlett> dream_code, 13.04 has reached end of life and is no longer supported.  consider your options
[10:15] <dreamer> until 14.04 is released we won't build a new image for our usersw so until then I'm stuck with it
[10:17] <cfhowlett> dreamer, install chromium-browser
[10:17] <dreamer> not like it segfaults on all my systems, just on this particular one
[10:17] <dreamer> chromium is already installed, but that's hardly a "solution"
[10:19] <bristleback> hi
[10:20] <sephnix> whats the prob?
[10:20] <bristleback> how can I install google v8 on ubuntu 13.10
[10:20] <sephnix> google v8?  or chrome?
[10:21] <bristleback> google v8, the javascript engine
[10:21] <Emily92> i created a .htaccess but its not asking for it when i very myself. I use an htaccess generator and i think its not working in terms of the password is in md5 hash which is not secure. How can i generator a secure password in ubuntn if i remember correctly they is command for that
[10:22] <Emily92> mysite not myself lol
[10:22] <DJones> bristleback: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libv8-dev
[10:22] <DJones> bristleback: Looks like that package may be what you need
[10:23] <bristleback> I installed that but i don't know how to access the executable
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> sephnix: how is that a question?
[10:30] <sephnix> Well normally you can tell if somethings a question as its followed by something called a questionmark
[10:30] <sephnix> turnip fool
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> sephnix: so,  I like blue?   is a question?
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> sephnix: no, its a statement
[10:31] <sephnix> its you being a fucking idiot is what
[10:31] <clue_h> this is a question mark, ?
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> sephnix: if you phrase a full question, you will get answers
[10:31] <cfhowlett> sephnix, dial down the attitude
[10:31] <DJones> ActionParsnip: Actually I read it as being a reply to the previous line asked by somebody else
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> sephnix: if it was a reply, as DJones states, then I apologise
[10:33] <sephnix> ''preciate djones
[10:33] <sephnix> ty bean. no offense take
[10:33] <sephnix> taken
[10:33] <sephnix> i tell you what.
[10:33] <Biomechd> hey guys, any idea as to what's going on here? starting rhythmbox gets it to count up to like 48 artists in my library in rapid succession, and then it crashes. http://pastebin.com/HhKKFQTm
[10:33] <sephnix> first time i've installed irc on this box
[10:33] <sephnix> first channel i joined#
[10:34] <sephnix> first thing i said
[10:34] <sephnix> was that aha
[10:35] <Biomechd> also, as you can see, it outputs a different kind of error message each time i try to run rhythmbox.
[10:36] <bristleback> any other ideas about that v8 engine I asked earlier?
[10:37] <cfhowlett> bristleback, assume that no one remembers your thread out of the hundreds here.  restate the issue for clarity
[10:39] <bazhang> http://askubuntu.com/questions/141252/is-there-a-package-for-an-executable-version-of-v8 bristleback
[10:41] <llutz_> times changing. our generation associates mustang or corvette with "v8 engine", clearly not askubuntu .. scnr
[10:42] <cfhowlett> sad but true
[10:42] <aze_> hello world
[10:42] <bgardner> aze_: World says hello back
[10:43] <aze_> i am new here , how are you ?
[10:43] <Biomechd> i compute, therefore i am.
[10:44] <googcheng> hi! after from 12.04.3 to 12.04.4 , the os broken , like https://www.dropbox.com/s/cavqscq8lf8mbpv/QQ%E5%9B%BE%E7%89%8720140325172900.jpg
[10:49] <red234324> Running 12.04 - I tried moving /tmp to RAM so far seems to have improved the overall speed and responsiveness without any downsides
[10:50] <Biomechd> no suggestions to my rhythmbox issue?
[10:51] <red234324> got the suggestion from http://ubuntuone.com/4mrpWg8P6GtxxqeYeHTn6w which also has instructions how to move chromium-browser cache to /tmp
[10:51] <cfhowlett> !cn|googcheng,
[10:52] <red234324> but I use firefox so is there a similar code for firefox cache to /tmp?
[10:52] <cfhowlett> googcheng, also see http://www.ubuntukylin.com/#
[10:54] <googcheng> cfhowlett,  is this your answer?
[10:55] <cfhowlett> googcheng, my suggestion ...
[10:55] <platypus> hello everyone,  I cant make youtube-dl work. I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7150653/
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> platypus: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> red234324: you can make a symlink of the cache folder to /tmp
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> red234324: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/768867  may help
[10:59] <platypus> ActionParsnip, the output is: Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> platypus: have you tried prefixing the command with sudo?
[11:00] <platypus> ActionParsnip, I'm not sure. will try it now
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> platypus: its worth a test
[11:00] <hans__> good morning
[11:01] <platypus> ActionParsnip, it is the same: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7150680/
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> platypus: are there any bugs reported?
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> platypus: you could use an addon to your web browser and download videos that way
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> platypus: is your intention to rip the audio from the video once downloaded?
[11:04] <cfhowlett> platypus, there are plenty of firefox plugins to download YT video
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> platypus: do yu wnat only the audio, ultimately?
[11:05] <platypus> ActionParsnip, I have the fantastic WinFF for audio, I do audios with it. I also have firefox addons for video, but not all of them worked somehow, and the one that works always gets stuck while doing audio (which I actually dont need for I have winFF as mentioned)
[11:05] <KingArthur55> solved!
[11:05] <KingArthur55> bye!
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> platypus: why not just use this then: http://www.youtube-mp3.org/
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> platypus: why reinvent the wheel....
[11:06] <platypus> ActionParsnip, but this seems to be for mp3?
[11:06] <platypus> or for videos, too?
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> platypus: you give thepage the youtube URL and it will rip the audio from it to MP3
[11:07] <emx> i updated to ubuntu 13.10. now apache doesn't seem to include my configurations from /etc/apche2/sites-enabled
[11:07] <red234324> ActionParsnip, had a look at that link then opened FF about:config and created browser.cache.disk.parent_directory and set it to /tmp/firefox and tmp is already in RAM - so I think on reboot that should put ff cache into RAM - does that sound about right to you to?
[11:07] <emx> what can i do?
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> red234324: why do you need to reboot?
[11:08] <red234324> just assuming ActionParsnip
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> red234324: you will need a command to run at boot to recreate and chown the folder to your user. Contents in RAM are lost at reboot, including your subfolder
[11:08] <platypus> ActionParsnip, but I have no problem ripping audios, as I said. the problem is my firefox addon downloads video and subsequently rips audio. however, the latter always jams the browser, when I dont even need it, as I can rip audio with WinFF if I want to.
[11:09] <platypus> in short, I need a video-only downloader.
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> platypus: doesn't minitube do youtube downloads?
[11:10] <platypus> ActionParsnip, I dont know now.  minitube had been working a while ago, after which it didn't work multiple times, and I'd quit using.
[11:11] <roppongininja> Hey guys how do I remove gnome desktop environment
[11:11] <roppongininja> from ubuntu
[11:11] <platypus> ActionParsnip, will try minitube again
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> roppongininja: are you that low on disk space?
[11:15] <q0> Hello, does anybody know why gnome-terminal -e "cmd" isn't working with Keyboard bindings in unity ?
[11:15] <q0> it really isn't
[11:15] <q0> no response at all
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> q0: how about if you run it from another terminal? It should spawn another
[11:16] <q0> yes it works
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> q0: sounds like a bug then
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> q0: have you tried the absolute path to gnome-terminal
[11:17] <q0> yes that's also not working
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> q0: sounds like a bug then
[11:18] <rafals1> Hello
[11:18] <q0> there was a screenshot hotkey that also stopped working, there's something going on I guess
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> q0: if you make a fresh ubuntu user and try it there, is it the same?
[11:25] <red_> cyberoam unable to open restricted sites any suggestion.
[11:25] <scrapcode> Can I install Xubuntu from the Ubuntu Live CD, without all the "fluff"?
[11:27] <ikonia> the install cd installs the standard install
[11:27] <ikonia> nothing different
[11:33] <lopit> Hi guys, one Q. Which would you say is more heavy on the resources of the two best looking desktops: unity or KDE?
[11:34] <lopit> Any1?
[11:35] <llutz_> lopit: depends on the apps your using. blank DEs differences are marginal
[11:35] <lopit> The usual. Rhythmbox&FF/unity, amarok%FF/KDE
[11:35] <lopit> usually, + libreoffice in both
[11:35] <lopit> three most used apps :)
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> lopit: unity is a plugin for compiz and Compiz is far from light
[11:41] <llutz_> With >2GB RAM it's just a matter of personal preferences, both will run fine, both aren't "light". But as i said, it's mostly the apps running making the difference
[11:46] <user> What's the driver for microphone?
[11:50] <kingplusplus> http://pastebin.com/tTRHFdnN guys please am having trouble returning content and the xpath is correct so i presume. Using lxml to get content of a paragraph
[11:51] <kingplusplus> sorry wanted to put that in #python
[11:52] <Barry_> Hi
[11:55] <miraj9093> helllo ,  i am using 12.04 LTS. i have a zip file of some drivers .i want to install them is it possible to do installation with zip file?
[11:59] <guest0292> miraj9093:  depends what drivers you have for Windows or linux?  Windows drivers probably won't work unless they're network drivers to use with ndiswrapper.
[12:00] <ikonia> pwd
[12:00] <ikonia> oops
[12:01] <madrid> ola
[12:01] <miraj9093> guest0292: actually I am installing mobile connection(net dongle 's) drivers..
[12:01] <madrid> me haces una paja
[12:01] <miraj9093> guest0292: i mean want to install..
[12:01] <madrid> penis
[12:02] <DJones> madrid: No thanks you
[12:06] <guest0292> miraj9093:  You will need to extract the drivers from the zip using an archiver or use wine to install them and find the .inf and .sys files.  Then install ndisgtk (sudo apt-get install ndisgtk) to actually install the driver .inf/.sys files.  This is the only way i'm familiar with.  Maybe an easier way...
[12:08] <guest0292> miraj9093:  Finally, run the network manager to activate your device.  Even then there's no guarantee the dongle will work as it's always best to use hardware compatible with linux drivers.
[12:08] <dheeraj> Hi guys
[12:08] <dheeraj> I accidentally erased my /run folder
[12:08] <dheeraj> and now internet is not working
[12:09] <dheeraj> any help is much appreciated
[12:09] <llutz_> dheeraj: reboot
[12:09] <rockyrock> I logged to a machine using ssh and ran a long-running command. However I'm afraid my internet connection might disconnet in anytime. If it disconnets, is the command going to be cancelled?
[12:09] <dheeraj> llutz_: thats when then internet stopped working
[12:09] <somsip> rockyrock: best to run it under something lie screen or tmux
[12:09] <somsip> *like
[12:09] <rockyrock> somsip: what to do now?
[12:09] <rockyrock> somsip: it's running already :(
[12:09] <dheeraj> llutz_: but thats when the internet stopped working
[12:10] <somsip> rockyrock: you could try to release it from the shell that started it. I can never remember the command that does this...hang on
[12:10] <abrotman> Does Ubuntu have an equivalent of snapshot.debian.org, a place that holds old package revisions?
[12:10] <somsip> rockyrock: https://github.com/nelhage/reptyr
[12:11] <guest0292> miraj9093:   I should also mention if your zip contains linux driver source code you will most likely need to compile the drivers, so you'll need to install all the necessary compiler software and linux headers first.
[12:11] <miraj9093> guest0292: thank you .i will try this..
[12:13] <miraj9093> guest0292:sorry which type of compile softwares??
[12:15] <OsGeo> hiii
[12:15] <guest0292> miraj9093, do have linux source or windows drivers?  you never said
[12:15] <OsGeo> anyone ?
[12:16] <somsip> !anyone | OsGeo
[12:16] <somsip> !ask | OsGeo
[12:16] <roppongininja> Can anyone tell me how to delete gnome from ubuntu (I've installed and am using xfce now so I dont need it anymore)
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> roppongininja: if you remove gnome-common    does it threaten to remove xfce too?
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> roppongininja: or remove gnome-desktop-environment
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> roppongininja: you will be trying to remove several packages that start with 'gnome' to see which does not remove xfce packages
[12:19] <roppongininja> ActionParsnip: let me try
[12:19] <rockyrock> I'm connected to a machine via SSH. I want to move files between my machine and the remove one. Is that possible?
[12:19] <OsGeo> I have the OSGeo 6.0 installed, and wanted to upgrade to the 7.9 OSGeo, is to do within OSGeo own?
[12:19] <llutz_> rockyrock: scp file user@remote:/path/to/copy
[12:20] <roppongininja> Package 'gnome-desktop-environment' is not installed, so not removed
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: how did you install OSGeo ?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> roppongininja: ok, try just 'gnome' on its own
[12:20] <OsGeo> dvd
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: so you mounted the DVD in ubuntu and installed some packages?
[12:20] <roppongininja> I still get that its not installed although it IS
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> roppongininja: dpkg -l | awk {'print $2'} | grep gnome
[12:21] <OsGeo> nao
[12:21] <roppongininja> when I log out from xfce I can still login using gnome
[12:21] <OsGeo> dvd live
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: so it is it's own distribution?
[12:21] <Samurai_Champloo> hey guys, i am doing an ubuntu update right now, a sort of big one, half way through 126 MB, wondering if it is ok to use xchat while i do this? am i presenting a problem to my system?
[12:21] <OsGeo> nao, Xubuntu distro
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: then how is this ubuntu related, if OSGeo is a live DVD?
[12:22] <roppongininja> Samurai_Champloo: no
[12:22] <Samurai_Champloo> thanks roppongininja do you know why it is not a problem? just out of curiosity.
[12:23] <roppongininja> Samurai_Champloo: because u are not updating xchat
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: OSGeo is nothing to do with Ubuntu in any way. Its is a completely separate distribution/
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: they have a support channel on Freenode:  #osgeo
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: your distribution is supported there
[12:24] <OsGeo> i dont know
[12:24] <Samurai_Champloo> oh. ok, cool. i was hoping you knew something about the nature of the os that allows for no-affected areas to continue to fiunction during updates, but the update is complete. no prob. thanks
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> OsGeo: #OSGeo or #OSGeolive  are the support channels for OSGeo, not here
[12:24] <roppongininja> Samurai_Champloo: well Im not an expert in any way and I know out of experience so :D no problem
[12:25] <Samurai_Champloo> thanks :)
[12:34] <rafals1> Hello, I have Lenovo Z510 (Optimus with Intel HD4600 and Nvidia GT740M as 3D Card) and I have a problem to use an external monitor. in Xorg.log I do not see any errors or problems. I was trying with Fedora live or Zorin Live(some Debian distro) and there is no problem with an external monitor. Does anyone have some similar problem? I was comparing packages list. I do not how to compare Xorg config because Xorg.conf doesn't exist.
[12:36] <Onslauth> Hi guys, I am looking for some help regarding linux namespaces, would this be an appropriate channel to discuss it?
[12:39] <guest0292> If i abort apt-get install while it's working (using ctrl c) will it corrupt the system?  Or will simply running it again fix any problems?
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> guest0292: it may, you will need to do a few commands to kick it back off
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> rafals1: what distro are you using now?
[12:41] <abrotman> Does Ubuntu have an equivalent of snapshot.debian.org, a place that holds old package revisions?
[12:41] <abrotman> Or should I perhaps ask something like #ubuntu-server?
[12:43] <hvn2> hi, I have a boot problem. Running 12.04, and after installing a new kernel using dpkg, the grub menu shows the new kernel, but at boot it claims that the disk (UUID) is not found. I've found numerous posts with the same problem, but none of the proposed solution (e.g. rootdelay) works for me. Any ideas ?
[12:44] <rafals1> ActionParsnip: I have tried Ubuntu 13.10 and 13.04
[12:46] <Grim_> dsa
[12:47] <Welastevil> hy people!
[12:56] <Samurai_Champloo> hey guys, one more thing, i'm having a bit of trouble with my screen sometimes, it goes black for a sec. i installed xscreensaver a while back and i think thats when the problem started, when i went to uninstall it, it diddnt fully uninstall. any ideas about that? did that happen to anyone else?
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> rafals1:but what are you using now? What OS / Release has the issue?
[12:59] <rafals1> ActionParsnip: I am using Ubuntu 13.10 where an external outputs (CRT/HDMI) don't work. But when I use for example Fedora Live or Zorin8 (Live) they work without any problem.
[13:00] <hvn2> hi, what is the best place to ask about boot problems with uuid messages ?

[13:08] <legion> good morning all
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> rafals1: have you installed bumblebee?
[13:12] <legion> does anyone know if in 14.04, the pulse audio bug with latency, if it was fixed,...skype issue?
[13:14] <dhaval2712> How stable is 14.04 beta 1 and can it be used on my Dad's 1 GB RAM laptop?
[13:14] <Emily92> hi guys just a quick question please i have a file .ssh/aut_key. i want to make the permissions are set to 0600 and that only the ssh key user "john" can access it  how can i do this pleasr
[13:15] <dhaval2712> I suppose if you simply have "John" own the file that should accomplish what you need.
[13:15] <llutz_> Emily92: if you aren#t john: sudo chown john:john file && sudo chmod 0600 file
[13:16] <Emily92> llutz_ if you are not john? or if you are join?
[13:16] <llutz_> Emily92: if you are john, you don't need sudo
[13:16] <hvn2> legion: good question...have the same issue
[13:16] <llutz_> Emily92: well, if the file is owned by you already
[13:17] <Emily92> llutz _ right  now i am log in as root but i want only john to have access to that file and also the directory name "john_folder"
[13:18] <llutz_> !permissions | Emily92
 Yes, I followed instruction in wiki, bumblebee sees my Nvidia Card, but when I run any software by Nvidia then the screen "blinks" and all the outputs work with the same settings (I see the same output on all of the connected screens)

[13:19] <Shutterstrom> If I'm using key based authentication using SSH to access my headless server, will any failed logins be written in /var/log/auth.log then? (I have already disabled plain user/password authentication).
[13:20] <llutz_> Emily92: and /home/john/.ssh should be 0700 too, check
[13:21] <sylvanica> I am going to try to reinstall Ubuntu today on my Windows 8.1 laptop (EFI). Last time, I had a major problem wherein grub would not get loaded, even with secure boot off, and there was weird wacky stuff going on. I barely got Windows back up and running. Has the process been improved at all in the past six months?
[13:22] <llutz_> Emily92: even /home/john should be 0700, not sure if that is default in *buntu now
[13:22] <Emily92> llutz_ this is what i am about to run. "sudo chown john:john  /home/john/.ssh/aut_key && sudo chmod 0600  /home/john/.ssh/aut_key" and for the .ssh direcotry   "sudo chmod -R 0700 /home/john/.ssh"
[13:23] <llutz_> Emily92: don't use -R 0700
[13:23] <llutz_> Emily92: chmod 0700 /home/john/.ssh
[13:24] <Emily92> llutz_ just  "sudo chmod  0700 /home/john/.ssh"
[13:24] <llutz_> Emily92: yes, no need for recursive setting 0700 to all files inside .ssh/
[13:25] <Emily92> llutz_ thanks will do that now
[13:29] <proje1> :)
[13:32] <Emily92> I granted permission to the wrong user before. how do i cancel that permission and grant it to a different user?
[13:33] <llutz_> Emily92: chown
[13:34] <Emily92> llutz_ this want i ran before and granted the wrong permission "sudo chown -R $alex:$alex /var/www/dev.example.com/public_html "
[13:34] <Emily92> llutz_ the person was meant for "emy" instead
[13:35] <llutz_> Emily92: so use chown -r emy:emy /path.....
[13:35] <llutz_> Emily92: so use chown -R emy:emy /path.....
[13:35] <llutz_> sry dangerous typo*
[13:35] <Emily92> thanks
[13:39] <Rory> On Ubuntu 12.04, if I repeatedly run a "sudo" command 4 or 5 times (e.g "sudo ls") there's a noticable delay in executing future sudo commands. Sudo is configured to run without a password
[13:41] <OerHeks> Rory, nice observation.
[13:42] <Rory> strace shows it hanging at: sendto(7, "<86>Mar 25 13:26:43 sudo: pam_un"..., 78, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 78
[13:42] <Emily92> llutz_  another question. I trying to ssh tunnel using Dbeaver (mysql client) i have the public key in "/home/john/.ssh/au_key" anyways i have set everything right and include the path to the private key in my local machine. what i try to connect i get an error "can't initilize tunnerl" "cannot establish tunnel" "Auth fail"      but the funny thing is when i do include the private path and just use the path instead its works so i am w
[13:42] <Emily92> llutz_ because when i am use the root user i include the root user ssh private key and it works but john ssh key doesn't
[13:44] <Rory> OerHeks: Do you know how I can fix it?
[13:45] <llutz_> Emily92: did you add the servers hostkey to johns known_hosts?
[13:46] <OerHeks> Rory, set password for sudo?
[13:46] <Rory> OerHeks: Not appropriate for this environment
[13:47] <Rory> OerHeks: The user is permitted to execute one particular command with elevated privileges without a password, because it's part of a script, and a full automated system
[13:47] <PeterGriffin> Hi guys.
[13:48] <PeterGriffin> I want to use tar just to store without compression, but can't find the option in the man. How canI do it?
[13:48] <llutz_> PeterGriffin: tar cf foo.tar /path/to/store
[13:49] <PeterGriffin> llutz_: So is it the default way it does it?
[13:49] <Emily92> llutz_ what do you mean please?
[13:49] <llutz_> PeterGriffin: tar creates archives, it only compresses if you tell it to do
[13:50] <PeterGriffin> Thank you.
[13:51] <llutz_> Emily92: the first time john connects to your remote-host, it needs to confirm the host-key, which will be stored in known_hosts file. are you sure that is done already
[13:52] <Emily92> llutz_ i am using puttty and i can connect using the root user private key
[13:52] <llutz_> Emily92: and you tunnel is established how?
[13:52] <rafals1> ActionParsnip: I think I found the solution, I will try to use vga_switcheroo
[13:52] <llutz_> your'

[13:58] <oxsyn> On 14.04 when I run apt-get dist-upgrade, my custom compiled vim binary in /usr/local/bin is removed from the system and my update-alternatives configuration is reset. Is this the way it's supposed to act?
[13:58] <zymogens> Anyone know what might be going on here. I have a VPS with UFW enabled - It blocks incoming by default. ‘ufw status’ says it is active and only allows connections on 22 from anywhere. It is blocking nginx without a problem. However my mongo shell on my home pc can connect remotely to it (the VPS) no probs - Not sure how that is possible? It seems like it is letting some things through?

[14:00] <OerHeks> Rory, this page may be a help with setting sudo timeout https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudoTimeout
[14:01] <Rory> No OerHeks I appreciate that, but that isn't the problem I'm having
[14:01] <Emily92> llutz_ i can connect to my server with the key i generated for john
[14:01] <Rory> This isn't about being prompted for a password, this is about sudo hanging after the 4th of 5th consecutive run

[14:02] <llutz_> Emily92: you'd better to ask people knowing dbeaver about that issue
[14:02] <OerHeks> Rory, i think that is the loop you described, sudo without password time-loop within timeloop
[14:02] <[conrad]> Hello everyone. I'm using 12.04 and just recently installed a new NIC, and now my LTSP doesn't work anymore. Specifically the DHCP server isc-dhcp-server. I presume it's because my interface went from eth0 to eth4, but I can't figure out how to update isc-dhcp-server to comply. I changed /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server to have eth4 in the interface item ( though there was no value there previously ). Trying to start the server via init or se
[14:02] <Emily92> dbeaver  irc doesn't exist atleast no one is on
[14:03] <llutz_> [conrad]: remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[14:03] <platypus> ActionParsnip, thank you for your help! minitube works this time.
[14:03] <llutz_> [conrad]: it will be re-created next boot and your new nic (if it is the only one) will be eth0 again
[14:04] <Rory> OerHeks: Please forget about the no-password thing, that is not the issue here. I'm trying to debug this issue regarding the sudo command hanging (not prompting for a password, just hanging), and I can provide strace output if necessary
[14:04] <[conrad]> llutz_:  It's not the only NIC. Though I might be able to work with this. I'll give it a try and let you know. Thanks.
[14:04] <llutz_> [conrad]: you also could change the MAC inside that file to your needs
[14:08] <nicklas_> thanks for all the info, need to go :-)
[14:27] <techie123> can anybody help me? I am trying to install a filed.deb on a foresight linux system using conary command but is not working. Still quite new at this?
[14:28] <Rory> techie123: What Ubuntu version are you running? (You can check by running the command: cat /etc/issue )
[14:28] <seednode> Wait, /etc/issue is supposed to tell version? Or is that something ubuntu specific?
[14:29] <techie123> Rory, when I use that command it tells me "Welcome to Foresight"
[14:29] <Rory> seednode: There's a few ways, but /etc/issue gives the version on Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Arch, and a few others I can thnk of
[14:29] <Rory> The point I'm getting at is that techie123 isn't using Ubuntu
[14:29] <seednode> Rory, does it? My Arch one was empty on install
[14:29] <Rory> So we can't support him
[14:29] <Rory> !ot
[14:29] <cfhowlett> techie123, foresight is not ubuntu
[14:29] <techie123> Rory do you know whether we have a foresight linux in here as a chanel
[14:29] <seednode> Rory, would make more sense to maybe direct him to the relevant channel instead of just calling ot
[14:30] <cfhowlett> techie123, perhaps #linux can hel
[14:30] <Rory> techie123: google.com
[14:30] <cfhowlett> techie123, perhaps #linux can help
[14:30] <techie123> cfhowlett understood.
[14:30] <Rory> techie123: "Foresight linux irc"
[14:30] <techie123> which release version do you recommend for ubuntu and I will Install it
[14:30] <seednode> #foresight
[14:30] <seednode> On here
[14:30] <techie123> Thanks Rory
[14:30] <seednode> But there's like 8 people there
[14:30] <techie123> ok
[14:31] <techie123> thanks you all
[14:31] <Rory> techie123: Install 13.10 and you can upgrade to 14.04 when it's released in 3 weeks or so
[14:31] <cfhowlett> techie123, 12.04 is the current long term support release.  14.04 is the next LTS and will be published next month.  direct upgrade 12.04 to 14.04 is available. do you need server or desktop functionality?
[14:31] <[conrad]> llutz: The file you provided helped get me back my interfaces to the proper names, but isc-dhcp-server is still failing as described.

[14:35] <cyberalex4life> hello, is there a way to change each type of themes sepparetly with unity-tweak-tool?
[14:35] <Rory> cyberalex4life: What do you mean by "each type of themes separately" do you mean, to have icons from one theme, cursor from another etc?
[14:36] <cyberalex4life> yes, and metacity, and gtk, like in gnome-shell
[14:37] <cederfjard> What's the connection between the software center and Ubuntu One accounts? I can't seem to find a good explanation anywhere. Trying to install Steam currently, and there seem to be no way to do through there without logging in?
[14:37] <cyberalex4life> Rory each different if I want to
[14:37] <Rory> cyberalex4life: What Ubuntu version are you running?
[14:37] <cyberalex4life> trusty
[14:37] <Rory> cyberalex4life: technically unsupported here, but anyway
[14:38] <cfhowlett> cyberalex4life, #ubuntu+1 for trusty support
[14:38] <Rory> cyberalex4life: But take a look here http://askubuntu.com/questions/361422/how-can-you-change-the-gtk-theme-and-window-decorations-separately-in-unity
[14:38] <cyberalex4life> Rory: thank you very much, sorry for wrong channel
[14:39] <Rory> It gets more and more awkward to bat people away to #ubuntu+1 as release day approaches; it seems almost churlish
[14:39] <cfhowlett> Rory, it's set up that way for good reason.
[14:40] <Guest51606> I'm trying to uninstall Ubuntu and get windows 7 instead. I've been trying to follow these steps using a disk with windows on it http://www.wikihow.com/Erase-Ubuntu but when I choose windows in the first steps when I turn on the computer nothing happens. Any help is much appriciated of how I can fix this problem since Ive been at this for weeks and not being able to get a solution.
[14:40] <Rory> I know
[14:40] <Rory> Guest51606: You can set a more friendly nickname with the "/nick" command - for example to change my name to Rory I typed "/nick Rory" (without the quotes)
[14:40] <Rory> Guest51606: Hang on, you deleted Ubuntu and are having trouble installing Windows?
[14:40] <sydney> What is the words that i have to use to install ubuntu software center in terminal?
[14:40] <cfhowlett> Guest51606, forget uninstalling ubuntu.  get windows, set up the entire HDD, format and install
[14:40] <Rory> Guest51606: Go ask a windows channel like #windows
[14:41] <Rory> sydney: It's already installed in ubuntu
[14:41] <Rory> sydney: but if you removed it, I believe the package is called "ubuntu-software-center"
[14:42] <Guest51606> #windows
[14:47] <katih> #windows
[14:48] <Rory> katih: type /join #windows
[14:48] <Rory> katih: This is still #ubuntu :P

[15:07] <Rubas> Hi, I'm trying to get my wireless card to work, but it says that wireless is disabled by hardware switch, but the switch is set at On
[15:08] <cfhowlett> Rubas, computer make?
[15:08] <rabbel_> Hey guys ... I have a question about automated ubuntu server install. Is this the right place to ask?
[15:08] <Rubas> cfhowlett: Sony
[15:08] <Rubas> cfhowlett: Sony laptop
[15:10] <cfhowlett> Rubas, Dell here.  dual booting.  in windows the F2 key turned wifi on/off       turns out that alt F2 would do the same in ubuntu.  no reboot to windows required.  only took 4 years to discover that secret.
[15:11] <Rubas> cfhowlett: alt + F2 will turn wireless on?
[15:12] <cfhowlett> Rubas, on my DELL, yes.  experiment. whatever your switch key is plus alt, ctrl, or windows super key
[15:12] <techie123> good morning I decided to install 13.10 ubuntu but not as a desktop but as a program, can I still do this via vmware on a mac? if so can anybody provide me with additional instrucitons
[15:12] <cfhowlett> rabbel, ask
[15:12] <techie123> already have foresight linux installed as a virtual machine, or should I try to desktop ubuntu first?
[15:13] <cfhowlett> techie123, we have NOTHING to do with foresight ...
[15:14] <rabbel> cfhowlett: ok. I am currently busy with automating my ubuntu-server (precise) installation. I followed this (http://askubuntu.com/a/122506) tutorial. It works perfect if I test it on a virtual machine. But if I try the same on a bare metal machine, it suddenly does not work anymore.
[15:14] <rabbel> I put the .iso file on a USB stick, it looks like it's booting but it says it can't find CDROM files.
[15:15] <rabbel> So my question, do I have to do something else if I put the iso file on a USB stick?
[15:15] <cfhowlett> rabbel, yeah, that's a NICE challenge!  however you might want to take this #ubuntu-server.  I suspect someone there has already done what you're now attempting.
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> rabbel: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[15:16] <bluefrog> rabbel, netboot and preseed should do the trick for you
[15:17] <ljsoftnet> how can i edit and update /proc/asound/cards
[15:17] <rabbel> bluefrog: I don't have netboot available. Well actually i have but I think it's better if I use an usb stick...
[15:17] <bluefrog> rabbel, have you used usb disk creator to put the iso on the usb?
[15:18] <rabbel> bluefrog: I used LinuxLive, it works for a non-custom iso.
[15:18] <rabbel> So I can boot into the installer which isn't customized ..
[15:19] <bluefrog> I don't know then. perso I would go netboot. faster.
[15:19] <rabbel> bluefrog: thank you anyway :)
[15:19] <awakecoding> where would be the best place to get information on packaging software for ubuntu for ARM? is there such a thing as a "generic" ARM build?
[15:19] <cfhowlett> !arm
[15:20] <j4son> ARM ftw
[15:20] <rabbel> ActionParsnip: the iso is correct
[15:20] <awakecoding> thanks
[15:20] <bluefrog> rabbel, https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html
[15:22] <rabbel> Hmm, what I could do, is defining my kickstart file & preseed on the www/ftp server... Maybe that helps.
[15:22] <rabbel> Thanks for the link bluefrog!

[15:29] <kuroarashi> hi there
[15:29] <kuroarashi> how to use the docky application
[15:31] <rabbel> bluefrog: by the way, why I don't want to do netboot, every pc I need to build does not has it enabled, I have to set the option in the BIOS, and that's not what I want :(
[15:32] <bluefrog> rabbel, up to you. in any case you need to be by the computer as I understand
[15:32] <rabbel> I actually just want to plug in the USB stick and just let it do for a while, after that it cat just report itself to my puppet master
[15:33] <bluefrog> rabbel, once network boot is enabled it's for life
[15:33] <kuroarashi> rabbel how to use docky application in ubuntu
[15:33] <rabbel> yes but i have to do it on every machine ...
[15:34] <rabbel> kuroarashi: no clue mate ;)
[15:34] <kuroarashi> rabbel thanks

[15:37] <Rubas> btw scanning through the terminal
[15:37] <cfhowlett> Rubas, again: I've not done what you're attempting.  that's why I suggested you ask this in #ubuntu-server
[15:38] <kuroarashi> tgm4883 thanks for the advice
[15:38] <Rubas> cfhowlett: okay :) Thanks

[15:42] <Domincii> Hey folks, trying to install Windows from disk. When I try to run the disk from the GRUB menu it just skips the disk and boots into Ubuntu for some reason. The disk works fine on my laptop and PC that both already have Windows installed but it just isn't doing anything on my Ubuntu PC
[15:44] <cfhowlett> Domincii, you have to set your bios to boot the windows disk.  ask in #windows
[15:45] <johelish> I just installed my new system and I went for 13.10 instead of 12.04 which was probarbly stupid.. I'm trying to find a way to get my Logitech DiNovo Keyboard to run but it won't..
[15:45] <johelish> Anyone else has this problem?
[15:45] <cfhowlett> johelish, is that a bluetooth device
[15:46] <johelish> cfhowlett: Yes
[15:46] <cfhowlett> !bluetooth|johelish,
[15:46] <johelish> cfhowlett: but when I look in dmesg it looks like there's two spectrums.. one HID and one bluetooth
[15:49] <johelish> cfhowlett: Everything is already installed and it renders zero devices.. hcitool dev
[15:50] <cfhowlett> johelish, all my BT devices just worked - can't help with troubleshooting.  sorry
[15:52] <ubuntun00b> hi!
[15:52] <sydneyJDykstra> ubuntu hello
[15:53] <Domincii> Anyone here who can help me with the Windows installation? I don't know why my disk drive isn't working on Ubuntu. Can I set it to automatically mount the disk drive? The drive is present in the Disk Utility selector but whenever I try to watch movies etc on there nothing happens. Presumably the problem is the disk drive not mounting the disks and stuff
[15:54] <cfhowlett> Domincii, you're installing windows INSIDE ubuntu?
[15:55] <philinux> Domincii;~ or are you trying to share files on a win disk
[15:55] <Domincii> cfhowlett, Im trying to boot a windows install disk but when I try to run the installation iso from GRUB it just boots straight into Ubuntu, skipping the disk installation altogether.
[15:55] <Domincii> philinux that reply is to you too
[15:56] <cfhowlett> Domincii, you MUST specify to the machine bios that it boots the windows install disk.
[15:56] <Domincii> cfhowlett, how can I do that? I'm not great with computers
[15:56] <Layke> Hi. Is it possible to have two of my network interfaces up, but of which is connected to the internet, however, be able to specify which one I use to connect out? One of the interfaces is actually used for my LAN
[15:57] <cfhowlett> Domincii, during power on self test, a message will appear "to change boot options, hit F something"
[15:57] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, go into the BIOS and set the windows disk to be first boot device
[15:57] <Layke> And I need to be able to connect to other systems on the same gateway, however, I don't want to actually use the ISP provided through that interface.
[15:57] <Domincii> cfhowlett, b3rz3rk3r I've already done that
[15:57] <cfhowlett> Domincii, I doubt it.  otherwise the drive would have  booted.
[15:57] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, then it is not set as bootable and your pc is defaulting to next device
[15:58] <cfhowlett> unless the drive itself has failed.  try this.  disable all drives EXCEPT the disk drive with windows.
[15:58] <philinux> Domincii;~ is the win disk in a dvd player
[15:58] <Domincii> b3rz3rk3r cfhowlett, when I run the disk on my windows laptop it boots perfectly but when I do it from my Ubuntu PC it doesn't work
[15:58] <Domincii> philinux yes it is
[15:59] <cfhowlett> Domincii, you're confusing the issue.  during power on NEITHER OS is running.
[16:00] <philinux> Domincii;~ to eliminate. try an ubuntu livd disk in the same dvd player
[16:00] <philinux> Domincii;~ if that boots then dvd player ok
[16:01] <Domincii> cfhowlett when I open my BIOS options my number 1 boot option is the CD/DVD drive, when I save the changes the PC boots into Ubuntu, when I force a GRUB entry and try to boot from the disk that way it again boots into Ubuntu, when I try to press F11 to enter the BIOS boot menu and manually choose the disk again it boots into Ubuntu
[16:01] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, it sounds like you have burned an image to a physical disk and now it won't boot from it after BIOS. In which case you have not set the disk to be bootable.
[16:02] <fili> CIAO
[16:02] <Domincii> b3rz3rkr3r when I use the disk from my Windows laptop it creates the installation prompt, is there any way to check it's been installed correctly?
[16:02] <cfhowlett> Domincii, this is the original windows disk?
[16:02] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, Yes, it will show up with the files when you are in an OS, but computers won't be able to boot from it.
[16:02] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, have you tried to boot it in another machine?
[16:03] <Domincii> cfhowlett no its an iso I've manually burnt to the disk, b3rs3rk3r I've not, I'll do so now to check
[16:03] <cfhowlett> Domincii, test it in a different machine
[16:03] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, 99.9% chance you haven't set it as bootable. You need to re-read the guide you followed and make sure you get the bootflag set correctly
[16:03] <gdoteof> so i just went through getting a sytem set up, as root.  my intention was to then use .bash_history to 'document' what i did
[16:04] <Player> Hey, I was wondering if I went ahead and upgraded to the 14.04 beta if I'd be able to keep that install when it's released.
[16:04] <gdoteof> but .bash_history doesn't have most/any of what i have done this session
[16:04] <gdoteof> if i press up i can see all of my commands
[16:04] <Player> Hey, I was wondering if I went ahead and upgraded to the 14.04 beta if I'd be able to keep that install when it's released.
[16:04] <gdoteof> what i'd like to do is dump all of those commands, basically everything i have done this session into a file
[16:04] <Domincii> b3rz3rk3r could you recommend a guide to create the installation CD from a windows computer? thats what im using to burn the iso to disk currently
[16:04] <OerHeks> gdoteof, sure, as root you don't want bash to log your private stuff
[16:05] <gdoteof> OerHeks: that makes sense.  i mean, if i look in there it does have some stuff.. ls \ cd \ apt-get install vim
[16:05] <gdoteof> basically that's it
[16:05] <gdoteof> in any case, is there some way to extract what i have in my cached history into a file?
[16:05] <cfhowlett> Domincii, windows has a USB creation too as well as data cd tools.  ask #windows for details.  this is not an ubuntu problem
[16:06] <Domincii> cfhowlett thanks for your help and patience
[16:06] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, I can't, I haven't used it in many years.
[16:06] <Spr1ng> Is there a way to make the default built in mail handler use an ISP SMTP smarthost to relay system generated mail instead of using DNS MX lookups and sending direct to the recipients mail host?
[16:06] <cfhowlett> Domincii, hope I helped a little.
[16:06] <OerHeks> gdoteof, maybe this page is any help http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/7041/dont-save-commands-in-bash-history-only-for-current-session
[16:06] <b3rz3rk3r> Domincii, Top results on Google will help though for sure
[16:07] <Domincii> b4rz3rk3r thank you for your help. I'll likely return if the problem persists.
[16:07] <gdoteof> OerHeks: yep.  the command, "history" is totally what i needed.  thanks!
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> gdoteof: if you use an exclamation mark and the number on the left, it will run the command for that number.
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> gdoteof: you can run the last command again by typing:  !!    (aka bang bang)
[16:09] <gdoteof> ActionParsnip: ah, good to know.  i did know !! but not that i could query like that.  in any case i needed the commands i had run to create a docker file.  appreciate the help
[16:14] <zetheroo> After performing an update and rebooting the server will no longer boot up .. trying in recovery mode it comes to the point "Gave up waiting for root device." and dumps me into initramfs ... :P

[16:20] <VictorCL> where are the steps to install it on the pendrive?

[16:43] <Domincii> Hi guys I'm back, the bootable DVD was working in my laptop but I still can't run in on my Ubuntu machine.. At the moment I can't even watch DVD's or play CD's via the drive in Ubuntu, perhaps it's mounted incorrectly?
[16:43] <Domincii> It shows up in the Disk Utility just fine it just doesn't seem to be 'spinning' the disks at all
[16:45] <sydneyJDykstra> Domincii: Is it junk?
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> Domincii: have you tried different players?
[16:47] <jhutchins> Domincii: Does anything happen to dmesg when you insert a disk?
[16:47] <Domincii> Actionparsnip the actual DVD doesnt show up in my drive, I can't try to run it from anything. I can see the DRIVE though
[16:48] <jhutchins> Domincii: Does the eject command work?
[16:48] <Domincii> The drive doesnt even seem to be attempting to read the disks
[16:48] <Domincii> I can check, what is the commed jhutchins?
[16:48] <jhutchins> Domincii: eject
[16:48] <Domincii> jhutchins, i just write that in terminal or what?
[16:49] <geo_> hi everyone
[16:51] <zen_monkey> ActionParsnip, on sec... <IP_ADDRESS> is alice! :D
[16:52] <zen_monkey> ActionParsnip, i meant alive, not wonderland ;)
[16:54] <jhutchins> zen_monkey: Did you verify the md5sum of the iso and whatever you burned it to?
[16:54] <sydneyJDykstra> Domincii: I have a drive that does that. It is junk. :)
[16:54] <Domincii> sydneyjdykstra you mean the drive is broken?
[16:54] <cfhowlett> Domincii, they DO fail ...
[16:55] <Domincii> when I do lshw -C disk it shows up the drive, but when I type eject it says it cant access the disk drive
[16:55] <sydneyJDykstra> If it ejects fine,but doesn't read I think so. :'(
[16:55] <Domincii>  sorry for the wall here but this is what I see when I do lshw -C

[16:56] <wheatthin> sudo eject /dev/sr0
[16:57] <wheatthin> if that works, make sure you're in the cdrom group too
[16:57] <Giant81_> so I went to isntall evolution..... I added the repository, did a 'sudo apt-get install evolution' everything worked well... went to install the -ews or -mapi for exchange support, won't install needs an older version of evolution
[16:57] <Domincii> wheatthin it worked

[16:57] <wheatthin> Domincii, sudo gpasswd -a <username> cdrom
[16:57] <sydneyJDykstra> Domincii: Personally I think it is junk. I have one that shows up in my computer,but it doesn't read any media. Sorry to break the news. :-(
[16:58] <Giant81_> so uninstalled evolution, removed the repository, did an update, went to isntall it with the software center
[16:58] <Giant81_> get dumb dependancy problems that it needs xxx. but it's instlaling it
[16:58] <Giant81_> evolution: Depends: evolution-common (= 3.8.4-0ubuntu1) but 3.8.4-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[16:59] <Domincii> wheatthin done, it said it added me to group cdrom
[16:59] <Domincii> sydneyjdkstra possibly, id like to pretty much exhaust any possibilities before buying a new one though
[16:59] <wheatthin> it should work on your next login.. or might work on the next command execution .. i'm medicated and forget now
