[11:41] <ztane> seems to be really random and restarting the program helps, but...

[11:41] <ztane> in case of konsole wouldn't want to restart the program
[11:41] <ztane> splstn: no
[11:41] <this> Insatll image 12.04 LTS: Why call it "CD" if it doesn't fit on a CD. And why make it 707Mb? THey could leave out a few stubid games, making the image 700Mb or less. If make it bigger than 700Mb why not make it real fat since one needs a DVD anyway? I just don't get it. I just frustrated now.

[11:44] <geirha> pwuertz: you need to set DISPLAY and the DBUS_SESSION-environment variables correctly, yes. You might be able to find them by looking in ~/.dbus/session-bus/
[11:45] <pwuertz> geirha: there are 4 files in session-bus.. is one of them supposed to go into DBUS_SESSION ?
[11:45] <geirha> pwuertz: look inside them. Hard to say which one's the valid one. You need DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
[11:46] <geirha> pwuertz: Alternatively, you can find the pid of e.g. natuilus, and check its env with tr '\0' '\n' < /proc/thepid/environ
[11:49] <pengunix> What part is responsible for creating the /etc/localtime ? When it is the installer, why isn't this managed by debconf?
[11:50] <pwuertz> geirha: thanks! getting the nautilus env worked
[11:50] <kibibyte> my printer stopped resolving samba printer name, now it works only with IP addres
[11:50] <kibibyte> any1 knows why
[11:50] <this> The minimal. I see. That is an option. I am a bit concerned about the text based installer though. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bad with IT, I write code myself for a living. But the times when I liked to do DIY such things are long gone. How is that text based installer? DO I just have to type Y/N and to select options or do I have to audo apt-get and the like?
[11:52] <glitsj16> this: the text installer is very similar to the graphical one, terms are a bit misleading in that sense .. Y/n questions and the like yes
[11:54] <glitsj16> this: if you already have a working linux on the machine you want to install ubuntu 12.04, there's another way to, but i assume you don't have that option?
[11:56] <glitsj16> this: for some screenshots on what to expect in the text based installer, see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal for example
[11:56] <this> I myself have a ubuntu 10.04 LTS, using it right now. But I will install 12.04 LTS on dads notebook. He asked me to do so, because is Win XP is going extinct. HE asked ME for linux [sic]. I great day :).
[11:57] <this> What is when the internet connection is not very stable during net-install? Is that a problem?
[11:58] <glitsj16> this: that could be a road block indeed, it relies on the connection to get the packages
[11:59] <glitsj16> this: ask a friend to borrow a USB stick for an hour, if that's possible, that way you don't need a stable internet connection
[12:01] <pengunix> What part is responsible for creating the /etc/localtime ? When it is the installer, why isn't this managed by debconf?
[12:02] <this> Well well well. Wait for the neighbour to return and ask him for a DVD or USB drive. Not the worst option. But wait...
[12:03] <pgar23> this: lol. go buy a usb for $5 from walmart
[12:03] <this> I have 1Gb CF-Cards and a CF to IDE adapter and a "cable thing" to attach IDE/SATA drives to usb. Could that work?
[12:03] <pgar23> this: what r u trying to do?
[12:04] <this> pgar23: No I don't. I wait for our customers to make me a USB drive for a present. Lol.
[12:04] <xmetal> ok i am trying to remember the name of a few programs but for some reaason am drawing a blank.  They are (at least two of them) "like movie maker" in MS
[12:05] <this> I try to install 12.04 LTS. But having no DVD and no USB drive.
[12:05] <xmetal> i used them before on a similar distro, but the names, I cant remember at all for some reason
[12:06] <glitsj16> this: ask your dad for an early christmas present for himself, XP is going to die and funeral costs are way more expensive than a USB stick :p
[12:06] <xmetal> hmm .. think "Open shot" was one of them (I am googling)
[12:07] <ObrienDave> this, tell him that a USB stick is a LOT cheaper that win8 ;)
[12:08]  * xmetal shutters at Windows 8
[12:08] <pgar23> win8.1 is not that bad
[12:08] <pgar23> once u get the hang of the new GUI
[12:08] <gordonjcp> xmetal: kdenlive
[12:08] <xmetal> well lets not go there
[12:08] <pgar23> hahahaha
[12:08] <xmetal> ty gordonjcp ... found them
[12:09] <gordonjcp> pgar23: it's like the worst bits of Unity made worse, with none of the good bits
[12:09] <xmetal> openshot, and kden where two of them
[12:09] <xmetal> (i am hunting on the forums)
[12:09] <pgar23> gordonjcp: lmao
[12:09] <gordonjcp> pgar23: although to be fair, I don't really know my way around any version of Windows
[12:09] <xmetal> i have to say that (despite not being my favorite DE) ... Unity is not as bad as I once thought
[12:09] <gordonjcp> pgar23: so I've got a sort of a false summit on the learning curve ;-)
[12:09] <andygraybeal> is there a way to get gedit to display it's tabs vertically?
[12:09] <gordonjcp> xmetal: it takes a bit of getting used to
[12:10] <ObrienDave> like any OS
[12:10] <gordonjcp> xmetal: it's a bit like, do you ever drive more than one make of car?
[12:10] <xmetal> I happen to like xfce, so thats what I am using atm
[12:10] <this> My dad! Good point. HE could have a DVD or USB stick. Installation is tomorrow, so going out to buy things isn't going to work. But i think I just risk it: Either he has a DVD or USB stick, or he's internet connection must not break. May the force be with me!
[12:10] <xmetal> heck i switch distro's all the time
[12:10] <xmetal> oops
[12:10] <pgar23> I'm rockin a dual boot win8.1 and 13.10
[12:10] <xmetal> i mean DE's
[12:10] <pgar23> they r both solid OSs
[12:10] <xmetal> <~~~ just installed 13.10 today
[12:10] <xmetal> (ubuntu)
[12:11] <xmetal> getting all the software i like "reinstalled"
[12:11] <xmetal> :)
[12:11] <gordonjcp> xmetal: you know when you get into an unfamiliar car and for the first hour or so you wash the windscreen every time you come up to a junction because the switches are the wrong way ound?
[12:11] <pgar23> xmetal:  recommend some programs plz
[12:11] <gordonjcp> but then once you're used to it you can actually appreciate the good bits
[12:12] <pgar23> xmetal: I am installing all the ones I liek too
[12:12] <xmetal> that reminds me of some people i see on top gear UK ... on the righthand drive cars... they mean to shift gears, and end up opening the door
[12:12] <gordonjcp> pgar23: programs for anything in particular?
[12:12] <xmetal> lol
[12:12] <pgar23> gordonjcp: jsut some of the ones you use and like
[12:12] <gordonjcp> xmetal: I drive LHD cars all the time, and I have never yet opened the door instead of changing gear
[12:12] <gordonjcp> pgar23: steam
[12:13] <gordonjcp> pgar23: right now I'm working on super-sekrit proprietary radio network drivers, so I'm using gedit which is preinstalled and git which isn't ;-)
[12:13] <xmetal> ah ha ... openshot, kden and kino
[12:13] <pgar23> gordonjcp: NICE!
[12:14] <xmetal> (Ithink i had used openshot most but i really didn't mess with the other two
[12:14] <pgar23> ran across a snag, wireless isnt working in 13.10
[12:14] <pgar23> im connected via LAN
[12:14] <xmetal> anyway, i got to go .. i will be back later
[12:14] <pgar23> remove LAN and I drop off
[12:14] <pgar23> xmetal: later
[12:14] <this> Thanks for appeasing and inspiring me. Linux and it's community just rocks. Btw: Windows $ucks. Any version of it.
[12:14] <xmetal> last time i had any hardware issues with hardware and ubuntu (no big deal) is wifi on my older laptop and U 9.04
[12:15] <xmetal> was going to try a newer version out but the hardware is "shot" on that old pc (almsot everything needs replacing)
[12:16] <pgar23> ya i have a suspicion my NIC isn't supported yet in saucy
[12:17] <pgar23> I will get it workin tho
[12:17] <pgar23> no worries
[12:17] <pgar23> ok so I'm running across another issue
[12:18] <pgar23> I am installing saucy on my friend laptop and it only has usb ports, no cdrom. I plugged in usb and set bios to boot from usb firtst. It detect the usb and sees ubuntu OS on there, I choose install and its just a black screen for hours
[12:18] <pgar23> any ideas?
[12:20] <glitsj16> !nomodeset | pgar23
[12:21] <pgar23> glitsj16: thx
[12:22] <glitsj16> pgar23: no guarantees that will work, but it's the first thing to check i suppose
[12:22] <pgar23> glitsj16: sure
[12:22] <pgar23> i'll givve it a try
[12:24] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:29] <pgar23> glitsj16: where do I run that nomodeset?
[12:29] <pgar23> i also tried acpi_osi= and same activity
[12:29] <pgar23> I was booting from usb, selecting install ubuntu and editing the boot params...
[12:32] <glitsj16> pgar23: easiest way is to hit F6 key after purple screen with a keyboard logo at the bottom, then choose nomodeset
[12:32] <hs366> Updating Java 8 is really annoying , :/
[12:33] <hs366> take long time to update
[12:33] <pgar23> glitsj16: I'm not even getting to the purple screen yet
[12:33] <glitsj16> pgar23: where do you get stuck?
[12:33] <pgar23> right after I choose install ubuntu
[12:34] <pgar23> black screen and the usb light doesn't flicker anymore like the computer is not reading the usb anymore (tried 3 separate usbs to make sure it was not that)
[12:34] <pgar23> or maybe it is waiting for my input but I cannot see anything bcuz rthe black screen
[12:35] <glitsj16> pgar23: you need to add the nomodeset option before that, look at the page i linked earlier under the heading 'How to enable kernel options on the livecd (before install)'
[12:37] <pgar23> glitsj16: ya i took a look at that link. It does not tell you where to run thos params however, i ran them in the edit portion of the install
[12:37] <pgar23> i scroll down to "Install Ubuntu" and hit "e" for edit
[12:37] <pgar23> right after "setparams 'Install Ubuntu'" i type nomodeset then press f10 to install ... black screen
[12:38] <pgar23> glitsj16: ^^^
[12:38] <glitsj16> pgar23: do you get a purple screen with a keyboard logo at the bottom right after bios splash?
[12:38] <pgar23> no
[12:38] <pgar23> not yet
[12:39] <glitsj16> pgar23: strange, perhaps try to hold shift or esc key after bios splash to get it, not sure
[12:41] <glitsj16> pgar23: do you see the F1 -F6 menu on the bottom of the screen where you chose 'Install Ubuntu'?
[12:41] <pgar23> glitsj16: no. It does not even get to that part. It prompts to install ubuntu, then i choose that and its a black screen
[12:42] <glitsj16> pgar23: is this a minimal install perhaps? or the regular desktop from a live USB?
[12:43] <pgar23> i hit f2 to opena CLI and grub> nomodeset did nothing but grub > acpi_osi= was accepted
[12:43] <pgar23> glitsj16: it is a reg desktop from live usb
[12:45] <Badbit> Hi, I've added deb-src http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise main restricted universe multiverse
[12:45] <Badbit> to my sources.list
[12:46] <Badbit> but when I try to run an apt-get source php5 it comes back with E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
[12:46] <Badbit> Am I missing something?
[12:46] <jrib> Badbit: apt-get update first
[12:46] <glitsj16> pgar23: that looks like a grub prompt, that won't work .. do you get a grub menu when holding shift or esc after bios splash?
[12:47] <Badbit> jrib: Magic, thanks
[12:48] <pgar23> glitsj16: ya it is a grub prompt because the normal boot mode is no good
[12:49] <root> hi
[12:49] <root> hi youtube...
[12:50] <glitsj16> pgar23: perhaps the iso was bad, out of ideas if those things aren't working i'm afraid
[12:50] <cfhowlett> root, youtube?  wrong channel
[12:50] <pgar23> so the comp boots up, i repeatedly tap esc to access the boot options, choose UEFI: Sandisk Ultra, it prompts me to try ubuntu (also not working), install ubuntu, test for defects, I choose e to edit install ubuntu and type nomodeset, same black screen
[12:50] <nikokoo> flash animation are horizontally crunched and the colors are wrong on a fresh install with flash official plugin. anyone experienced this or has a workaround ? I cannot really play with flash settings because the settings dialog being in flash, it is unreadable
[12:50] <pgar23> glitsj16: I formatted the usb, and re-installed from ubuntu site
[12:50] <pgar23> glitsj16: thx for your help
[12:51] <jrib> nikokoo: is every thing blue in flash?
[12:51] <glitsj16> pgar23: strange, keep asking and hopefully someone chimes in with the magic bullet .. no problem
[12:51] <pgar23> glitsj16: hahah. Ya. Thx man!
[12:52] <pgar23> I will figure it out here soon
[12:52] <nikokoo> jrib: not blue, but sort of crunched and strange colors and horizontal lines
[12:52] <nikokoo> jrib: a bit like TV statics
[12:55] <pgar23> coult installing ubuntu from usb fail bcuz the "Install Ubuntu" line reads: file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed? Should I switch it to /usb/preseed...?
[12:56] <cfhowlett> pgar23, no idea how/why your buntu is scrambled but here's a possible option: install the min to get our system basically set then add the goodies later
[12:56] <cfhowlett> !mini
[12:56] <glitsj16> pgar23: so you choose 'e' to edit, that's good .. did you add 'nomodeset' on the 'linux ..' line right after splash ? that's where it's supposed to be .. ignore if you already did this, just double-checking
[12:56] <pgar23> cfhowlett: ya that is a good suggestion. Will give it a try
[12:57] <pgar23> glitsj16: ya e to edit and added the nomodeset. No good
[12:57] <lar4> Hi there's a bug with spdif output which have a patch to fix it, how do I apply the patch once I download it?
[12:59] <glitsj16> pgar23: than follow cfhowlett's advice, and perhaps make a bug report once you get it installed, goodluck

[13:40] <Luyin> brb
[13:40] <lar4> ok ty
[13:41] <BluesKaj> lar4, that's an old post , which ubuntu version are you using ?
[13:41] <lar4> BluesKaj, a poster confirmed in that page it persists in 12.04 as well
[13:41] <lar4> BluesKaj, 12.04, newest kernel
[13:42] <BluesKaj> and which audio chip , lar4 ?
[13:42] <lar4> BluesKaj, the popular on board intel one
[13:43] <lar4> BluesKaj, it's an spdif output bug
[13:43] <lar4> BluesKaj, someone in the thread isolated the problem and managed to work around it but i haven't figured how he did it yet..
[13:45] <khristine> #canada
[13:45] <BluesKaj> lar4, yes I use the spdif out on my media server to an audio receiver , and also have an onboard intel hda chip (as a an alternative), but I'm running 13,10
[13:47] <lar4> BluesKaj, but i installed kernel 3.12 as was suggested to me here
[13:47] <lar4> and it persists
[13:47] <lar4> BluesKaj, which kernel are you using?
[13:47] <ikonia> lar4: do you have the problem now - at the moment, from the machine you are currently chatting on
[13:47] <lar4> ikonia, yes
[13:47] <ikonia> lar4: can you please show me the output form "uname -a"
[13:47] <BluesKaj> lar4, 3.12.0-5-generic
[13:48] <lar4> ikonia, Linux host 3.12.0-031200-generic #201311031935 SMP Mon Nov 4 00:36:54 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[13:48] <lar4> BluesKaj, you updated manually the kernel then?
[13:48] <ikonia> lar4: do you know if the problem is fixed in that kernel ?
[13:49] <lar4> ikonia, i updated to 3.12 so obviously it wasn't
[13:49] <lar4> wasn't fixed
[13:49] <BluesKaj> lar4, this pc is my test machine, so I'm sort of bleeding edge
[13:50] <ikonia> lar4: you can't work it like that "I upgraded so obviously it wasn't"
[13:50] <MrQuist> Any one-liner CLI gods here? Yes there are. Good! I have this javascript-compiling binary. It compiles.. Javascript. About 5000 files. Problem is - once i build them, all file permissions are changed from 0755 to 0644 and the other way around. Git doesn't like that. Is there a way, to grab all the git diff output (old->new), filter out the filename and old file permission, then throw that into chmod and reset the permission?
[13:50] <ikonia> lar4: knowing if that patch is in that kernel is critical
[13:50] <BluesKaj> lar4, do you have pavucontrol installed
[13:50] <glitsj16> lar4: did you try to follow instructions on the page poster #38 provided in that bug report? that looks like an easy thing you can try and it offers uninstall instructions, so you don't end up with more sound problems .. just my 2 cents
[13:50] <MrQuist> Now i have " git diff -p -R | grep -E "^(diff|(old|new) mode)" | git apply ", but that also reverts content changes.
[13:51] <lar4> BluesKaj, yes
[13:51] <lar4> glitsj16, i'll try it
[13:53] <Xat`> how to get linux-source-3.8.0-29 on my ubuntu 12.04 please

[13:58] <ikonia> what do you mean "no noobs"
[13:59] <zuce> is an question for experts ,no for noobs,it's simple bro
[13:59] <zuce> speaks english??..
[13:59] <ikonia> zuce: then stop asking "noob" questions yourself, if you want experienced users to help you
[13:59] <lar4> BluesKaj, should i install the 'Daily' ?
[14:00] <zuce> no i only need ideas ,i am expert
[14:00] <lar4> I mean, not the "quantal", "raring", "saucy", etc?
[14:00] <ikonia> zuce: ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, "sure your are" that's why you are unable to research OS's
[14:00] <zuce> ikonia insulte me
[14:00] <ikonia> zuce: this channel only supports ubuntu - no other distirbutions, so you're in the wrong channel, I can see how you could make that sort of "noob" mistake though asking in the wrong channel
[14:01] <Pici> zuce: If you have an actual Ubuntu question, please ask.
[14:01] <DJones> zuce: This is an Ubuntu supprot channel, so the recommendations you'll get here will be Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu
[14:01] <imghost> how to install pwm-capable sensor modules for hp pavilion dm4 series?
[14:01] <zuce> no,ubuntu for eeepc is a disaster
[14:01] <ikonia> zuce: then there is not much this channel can do for you
[14:01] <Pici> zuce: Then you're in the wrong channel. This is #ubuntu
[14:01] <Mark_de_J> Hello.
[14:01] <Mark_de_J> *waves*
[14:02] <BluesKaj> lar4, yes
[14:02] <zuce> ubuntu is linux basd in debian ,the linux base,you have know it
[14:02] <ikonia> zuce: we don't deal with other distributions
[14:02] <Mark_de_J> Zuce, is it true that Linux is the basic of every OS?
[14:02] <zuce> hahah
[14:03] <zuce> you use ubuntu because is noob os okey
[14:03] <DJones> zuce: Yes we know that, however, this channel only supports the official Ubuntu releases, you may be better joining ##linux if you just want general advice about other distributions and asking there
[14:03] <Badbit> zuce: If you're such an expert roll your own. Obviously you don't want to compile on your eeepc so set-up a cross compiler and off you go.
[14:05] <zuce> no bro i respect all ,i need  only ideas,i can do all
[14:05] <zuce> no ideas ok bye

[14:11] <ikonia> twobitsprite: any ubuntu cd will work
[14:11] <imghost> matzipan, sorry but you have no idea, did you understand my question its crystal clear
[14:12] <knightshade> Hello

[14:13] <glitsj16> imghost: never owned a motherboard with pwm sensors personally, so i don't have experience .. just found a few links that you might want to look at if you haven't already: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1877114, and http://askubuntu.com/questions/281478/fan-speed-in-ubuntu-pwmconfig-no-pwm-capable-sensor-modules-installed
[14:14] <imghost> glitsj16, thats ok and sweet atleast you understand my problem :)
[14:14] <twobitsprite> ikonia: well, I was looking for one with tools already installed because I"m not entirely sure what I'll need, etc
[14:15] <imghost> but i did all the link you gave me i followed it already its just i am not getting this modules for hp pavilion dm4
[14:15] <ikonia> twobitsprite: so then using the ubuntu cd and installing what you needs as you go along is a good option
[14:15] <Mark_de_J> *AFK*

[14:18] <ikonia> Mark_de_J: join #ubuntu-ops if you need to talk to the admin team
[14:19] <Mark_de_J> Just intressed, no need to talk.
[14:19] <Mark_de_J> I am scared of admins. :)
[14:19] <ikonia> Mark_de_J: please don't call the !ops unless there is a real emergency
[14:19] <DJones> Mark_de_J: Generally the channel users look after the support issues, everybody here is a volunteer
[14:19] <Mark_de_J> Sorry.
[14:19] <ikonia> Mark_de_J: no problem.
[14:19] <lar4> the alsa hda dkms didn't help :-/
[14:19] <IdleOne> Seems to me you would not want to highlight them all if you are scared of them.
[14:20] <Mark_de_J> Admins ban me always
[14:20] <Mark_de_J> when I go sing...:S
[14:20] <ikonia> Mark_de_J: ok, so lets drop it and move on and stick to ubuntu topics

[14:30] <phunyguy> zuce, please read the guidelines before posting again.
[14:30] <lar4> is ubuntu 12.4.3 and 13.04 the same?
[14:30] <ikonia> zuce: stop being rude about people - contribute to the ubuntu support discussion, or be quiet, this is your only warning
[14:30] <zuce> i respect all ,but is more  for my mind
[14:30] <lar4> the download page for 13.04 leads to 12.4.3
[14:30] <ikonia> lar4: no, they are quite different distros
[14:30] <BluesKaj> zuce, what's your question ?
[14:31] <Robertas2000> OK I'm sorry i supposed people able to understand Lithuanian language. could someone help me to figure out how to get to console in Ubuntu 13.10 on mqcbook pro. the switch to console for instance tty1 cause screen turned off
[14:31] <zuce> well, i need eeepc Os best performance in linux
[14:31] <ikonia> zuce: that's offtopic for this channel sadly,
[14:31] <phunyguy> Robertas2000, fn/ctrl/alt/f1
[14:31] <phunyguy> have to hit the fn key to get f1 to work
[14:31] <xangua> lar4: did you disabled javascript or are using an addon like NoScript?
[14:31] <lar4> xangua, i do
[14:32] <lilkuz85> Hows the gaming support on ubuntu linux, its been a few years since i have used it
[14:32] <zuce> ikonia again ... u are bored
[14:32] <xangua> lar4: well enable javascript then
[14:32] <zuce> pls respect me
[14:32] <phunyguy> :-/
[14:32] <Mark_de_J> What is the minimum ram I need for Ubuntu, 32 bit?
[14:32] <ikonia> lilkuz85: from a realistic point of view, it's still pretty poor, from a marketing/document point of view, much better and growing
[14:32] <xangua> !requirements
[14:32] <zuce> good question mark
[14:32] <xangua> Mark_de_J: 700mb for Ubuntu Unitu I believe
[14:33] <zuce> 88 mb ram with ubuntu server
[14:33] <imghost> lilkuz85, use steam and pay to play
[14:33] <zuce> this is perfect for me but need video
[14:33] <Mark_de_J> Got an old PC, Windows XP with 256mb ram.   Xubuntu would be close.
[14:33] <lar4> xangua, didn't help but i'll use the torrent instead
[14:33] <lilkuz85> Ok so we still need to use programs like wine to install and run games in linux?
[14:33] <zuce> lubuntu i was test i need any better
[14:34] <ikonia> lilkuz85: wine is still poor/ an unacceptable solution
[14:34] <xangua> Mark_de_J: then you may be considering Xubuntu or Lubuntu
[14:34] <Mark_de_J> What one is easier?
[14:34] <phunyguy> Mark_de_J, about the same
[14:34] <zuce> here this cahmpions questin bro ,no noobs ,THE PERFORMANCE IS VITAL
[14:34] <Mark_de_J> OK.
[14:34] <Mark_de_J> brb
[14:35] <lilkuz85> I see, looks like steam is about to release their new distro
[14:36] <imghost> lilkuz85, i think we are using an open source os so gaming companies are not intrested to collaborate with it, so they will not earn money
[14:37] <lilkuz85> Yeah i dont see how the new steam os will differ from any other linux distro
[14:37] <imghost> lilkuz85, lets wait and test ourself :)
[14:37] <Bloodcage> hey all.. i ve a question on how to install the flashplugin on different browsers with the kubuntu system. i've the flashplugin-installer installed but there is no chance to open the install files with the apt application and i don't get the plugin installed neither in firefox nor in opera or chromium -.-
[14:38] <lilkuz85> Maybe just out of the box support for the steam branded controller
[14:38] <BluesKaj> steam is releasing a linux gaming distro ?
[14:38] <lilkuz85> Yes its called steam os
[14:38] <imghost> Bloodcage, use sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[14:38] <Bloodcage> it is installed imghost
[14:39] <imghost> Bloodcage, whats the output when you open any flash websites like youtube?
[14:39] <Mark_de_J> Bloodcage, Google Chrome (www.google.com/chrome) got a flash player in it his self. :)
[14:39] <Bloodcage> You can get flashplayer here.
[14:40] <Bloodcage> that's what he sais in firefox and chromium
[14:40] <Mark_de_J> Try Google Chrome?
[14:40] <lilkuz85> Looks like my irc client is working pretty well on my samsung galaxy tab 2
[14:40] <Mark_de_J> brb
[14:40] <ActionPa1snip> lilkuz85: nice
[14:40] <ActionPa1snip> lilkuz85: i have a tab2 7
[14:40] <ActionPa1snip> lilkuz85: I use andchat :)
[14:40] <lilkuz85> Me too
[14:41] <imghost> Bloodcage, whats the output of dpkg -l | grep flashplugin
[14:41] <lilkuz85> Im running cm rom on mine, cant remember the build
[14:41] <ActionPa1snip> Bloodcage: what is the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'
[14:42] <lilkuz85> Got root?
[14:42] <imghost> ActionPa1snip, wow thankyou :)
[14:42] <Bloodcage> flashplugin-installer <IP_ADDRESS>2ubuntu and the flashlugin-nonfee-extrasound
[14:43] <Bloodcage> lsb_release -a; uname <a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'
[14:43] <Bloodcage> ups
[14:44] <phunyguy> Bloodcage, make sure you pastebin the results please
[14:44] <makara> what password is given to users added with 'useradd mystrange'
[14:44] <phunyguy> !paste
[14:44] <makara> i need to run a command as that user, and I can't
[14:44] <phunyguy> makara, so change the password with the passwd command
[14:44] <ActionPa1snip> makara: same as their login account
[14:44] <phunyguy> makara, if it is a service account, be careful
[14:45] <makara> phunyguy, that it is
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> makara: su name -c "command1; commad2; command3"
[14:45] <phunyguy> makara, also, you can sudo su, then su username to access without password
[14:45] <imghost> Bloodcage, according to me output is ok, did you run an apt-update?
[14:45] <imghost> apt-get update
[14:45] <phunyguy> or just sudo su username -c /bin/bash
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> makara: may want to read the su man page to double check that :)
[14:45] <phunyguy> to get a prompt as that user.
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> phunyguy: why not run:  su name
[14:46] <phunyguy> ActionPa1snip, because that requires a password
[14:46] <phunyguy> he said he doesn't know the password
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> phunyguy: so does yours
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> phunyguy: oh, missed sudo
[14:46] <phunyguy> ActionPa1snip, try it.  ;)
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> phunyguy: yeah, you are right :)
[14:47] <phunyguy> I sense a netsplit...
[14:47] <Bloodcage> hm
[14:48] <ajim> hello
[14:48] <makara> great]
[14:49] <Bloodcage> well... seems that i've to read through different forums hehe ... but thanks for the first.
[14:50] <phunyguy> Bloodcage, good to go?
[14:50] <imghost> Bloodcage, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:50] <phunyguy> Mark_de_J, also, please don't recommend chrome here.  It is offtopic.  Chromium is not however.
[14:51] <Mark_de_J> Phun? Chrome is a browser? :s
[14:51] <phunyguy> Mark_de_J, an unsupported one.
[14:51] <Mark_de_J> :s
[14:51] <Mark_de_J> Best browser ever?
[14:51] <Pici> !best
[14:51] <phunyguy> that may or may not be the case, either way, it is not supoprted here.
[14:53] <LjL> phunyguy: what makes it offtopic?
[14:56] <Bloodcage> well nothing changed at all. but thanks a lot. gtg have a nice day . perhaps later
[14:56] <imghost> Bloodcage, paste the output of "sudo apt-cache show flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound"
[14:56] <ajim> Does anyone have problem with sd card adapter wont show up
[14:57] <imghost> bloodcage: i think problem is pulse audio support so please paste the output so that i can confirm the error
[14:59] <ajim> SD card problem in elementary os any1?
[14:59] <ikonia> ajim: please use elemtary OS support - they have a good group of people
[15:00] <ikonia> ajim: we only deal with ubuntu here
[15:00] <ajim> my bad
[15:00] <ikonia> not a problem
[15:05] <ice9> how to install the correct graphics driver for my system?
[15:06] <ajim> SO ! we wont get any nvidia official for ubuntu? ever?
[15:06] <phunyguy> ice9, which card?
[15:06] <phunyguy> ajim, since when?
[15:07] <ice9> phunyguy, Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[15:07] <ajim> graphic card driver
[15:07] <ajim> i have a gforce 610m
[15:07] <ajim> but my ubuntu uses the on board intel graphic
[15:07] <BluesKaj> ice9,  sudo lshw -C video , the driver in use is beside "configuration: driver= ... ". then we can proceed from there.
[15:08] <phunyguy> ice9, should work out of the box.
[15:08] <phunyguy> ajim, do you have a support question?
[15:08] <ice9> phunyguy, i915
[15:09] <phunyguy> ice9, same adapter I have.
[15:09] <tyrog> !chinese
[15:09] <Mark_de_J> How can I dcing my wifi?
[15:09] <ajim> nah,im just asking :/
[15:10] <ice9> phunyguy, would you paste the output of: ldd /usr/bin/glxinfo
[15:10] <imghost> !details | ajim
[15:10] <OerHeks> ajim sounds like you have optimus
[15:10] <phunyguy> ice9, sure, let me fire up that laptop.

[15:11] <BluesKaj> ice9, if you want more desktopeffects with i915 driver install the mesa-utils experimental app , then you can use the OpenGL and raster settings in desktop effects.
[15:11] <ice9> BluesKaj, i think i have problem with GL itself , since i can't launch unity and cinnamon crashes when I open the main menu
[15:13] <phunyguy> ice9: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6567130/
[15:14] <ice9> phunyguy, whats the output of:  update-alternatives --list gl_conf
[15:14] <lar4> I tried Ubuntu 13.04 and the bug persists ...
[15:14] <Mage_Dude> Where do I find the script that runs (motd?) on login (13.04 server) that shows whether updates are available?
[15:15] <imghost> ice9, did you remove cinnamon? and reinstalled unity?
[15:15] <ajim> how to run dmesg on terminal?
[15:15] <phunyguy> no alternatives for gl_conf
[15:15] <OerHeks> Mage_Dude, in /etc/motd
[15:15] <imghost> ajim, type dmesg in terminal
[15:15] <ice9> imghost, i have both, unity wasn't working in the beginning so i tried to install another desktop to see
[15:15] <OerHeks> Mage_Dude, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpdateMotd
[15:15] <Pici> Mage_Dude: take a look at the motd.tail manpage
[15:15] <Cavinaar> Hi all
[15:16] <imghost> ice9, like to know what was the problem?
[15:16] <ronrick> I love you all
[15:16] <compdoc> isnt /etc/motd just a link to the actual directory?
[15:16] <Mage_Dude> OerHeks: Pici: Thanks
[15:16] <ice9> imghost, yeah
[15:16] <compdoc> I dont think you should mess with /etc/motd itself
[15:16] <BluesKaj> ice9, sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental
[15:17] <ice9> then BluesKaj ?
[15:17] <imghost> ice9, after purging cinnamon, and reinstalling unity, compiz, reconfiguring lightdm/gdm you just need to make few changes in the configurationof your display manager thats all :)
[15:18] <lar4> BluesKaj, i tried all the suggested fixes
[15:18] <Cavinaar> Having an issue downloading Ubuntu.  Want to try it out on my best laptop...however, the iso filename says amd and my laptop uses an intel cpu...will that make a difference>?
[15:18] <imghost> ice9, are you on 13.10?
[15:18] <researcher> How to restore the files on Saucy which was backed up using ringtail? I cant see restore folder name
[15:18] <ice9> imghost, yes, but I reinstalled compiz and unity already
[15:18] <BluesKaj> ice9, you might need to reboot
[15:18] <zykotick9> Cavinaar: amd64 is for either AMD or Intel 64bit CPUs
[15:18] <ice9> BluesKaj, I did
[15:18] <imghost> ice9, but you didnot configure your dislpay manager? right?
[15:19] <Cavinaar> zykotick9: THanks :)
[15:19] <ice9> imghost, no, what should i do?
[15:19] <Mage_Dude> compdoc: Not looking to mess with it really. Just trying to hook into whatever is generating the package count if updates are available.
[15:20] <BluesKaj> lar4, then I suggest you upgrade your OS , that's all i can think of .
[15:20] <imghost> ice9, paste output of "cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf"
[15:20] <n008> Trying to setup port forwarding ssh -C2qTnNv -D 8083 ubuntu@host
[15:20] <Mage_Dude> zykotick9: Thanks again for the apt-cacher-ng package. Setup new server, told all otehrs to use it, ran update and saved ~250MB just in one update run.
[15:20] <lar4> BluesKaj, i just tried 13.04
[15:20] <n008> but chrome can't connect to the server
[15:20] <n008> how do I debug this ?
[15:20] <compdoc> Mage_Dude, I think you can run manually:  sudo run-parts /etc/update-motd.d
[15:20] <ice9> imghost, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6567177/
[15:21] <n008> looks alright it says debug1: Local connections to LOCALHOST:8083 forwarded to remote address socks:0
[15:22] <imghost> ice9, add this http://paste.ubuntu.com/6567181/ then do one reboot problem solved:) dinner time i will continue after 20mins ok :)

[15:38] <CatKiller> arav93: What's "broadband"? A wireless router? A PPPoE connection?
[15:38] <so__> becaus the message cut me when i'm start any command
[15:39] <so__> (sorry for my english)
[15:39] <arav93> A PPoE
[15:39] <CatKiller> so__: Some issue with the drive sdb. The issue is printed on the kernel console. You should probably look into it
[15:40] <arav93> Oh. So you have no clue?

[15:45] <Pici> Mark_de_J: Ubuntu version numbers are the YEAR.MONTH of release.
[15:45] <Mark_de_J> Ikonia, how do you know?
[15:46] <Mark_de_J> So, 13.10 means 13 October?
[15:46] <ikonia> Mark_de_J: because it's released on the ubuntu.com website and what Pici said
[15:46] <Mark_de_J> 2013*
[15:46] <ikonia> Mark_de_J: october 2013
[15:46] <Pici> Mark_de_J: yes
[15:46] <Robertass2000_> because some steps requires console only
[15:46] <Mark_de_J> Next can be 14.01 or?
[15:46] <Pici> Mark_de_J: Every 6 months.
[15:46] <Robertass2000_> so i need this mode available :)
[15:46] <Mark_de_J> Is there somewhere information about it?
[15:46] <Mark_de_J> Next release etc?

[16:23] <zenger> how do I configure postfix to recieve emails from everywhere
[16:23] <DrGrov> Hello everyone. Got some minor interference when logging into Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit. It distorts the wallpaper a bit but resumes and sets it accordingly.
[16:23] <zenger> i doesn't recieve any e-mail at all
[16:23] <osubuntu^android> I mean, are device files like dev sda in ISO format
[16:23] <osubuntu^android> Device files are images??
[16:23] <jhutchins> osubuntu^android: Not really, you don't back them up.
[16:23] <DrGrov> Got a minor gnome-settings... issue which I passed and reported through the internal reporting system but after rebooting it persists the issue.
[16:24] <jhutchins> osubuntu^android: Generally avoid /dev, /proc, and /sys
[16:24] <osubuntu^android> Nono
[16:24] <jhutchins> osubuntu^android: Ideally do the backup running from something else like a live disk.
[16:24] <osubuntu^android> I heard they are backupable..
[16:24] <osubuntu^android> Live disk?
[16:24] <jhutchins> osubuntu^android: live DVD?
[16:25] <osubuntu^android> I have to rewrite live usb
[16:25] <jhutchins> osubuntu^android: Allow the system to create them at runtime, don't back them up.
[16:25] <osubuntu^android> My ubuntu is broken and im gonna fresh install
[16:25] <zykotick9> jhutchins: i'm guessing there is a terminology/understanding gap here with osubuntu^android question
[16:26] <osubuntu^android> I have to backup original, rewrite live usb to saucy, then do a fresh install
[16:27] <osubuntu^android> What is the gap?? Please tell me so I dont make any mistake
[16:27] <osubuntu^android> Well...
[16:27] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: that's not a fresh install, that's a restore of a damaged backup
[16:28] <osubuntu^android> No I dont have any backups now
[16:28] <ikonia> so what do you want then ?
[16:28] <imghost> osubuntu^android, are you switching from any other os?or just upgrading the os?
[16:29] <imghost> osubuntu^android, backups of what?
[16:29] <osubuntu^android> I recentlt upgraded to saucy but something was broken so nothing but text mode seems to work
[16:29] <osubuntu^android> So i have to backup my works and home dirs etc before rewriting the damaged one
[16:29] <imghost> osubuntu^android, so you do not need to do a fresh install,
[16:30] <osubuntu^android> No even apt get doesnt seem to work
[16:30] <DrGrov> Is there any way to reset Unity or check some logs where to find a possible glitch what causes that wallpaper to distort itself momentarily and then align itself?
[16:30] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: I'm sorry I don't understand the issue here, backup your data, do a clean install, restore your data
[16:30] <osubuntu^android> My ubuntu is completely broken
[16:30] <osubuntu^android> Hmm
[16:31] <osubuntu^android> Okay, the final question is, is it possible to backup via live uab
[16:31] <osubuntu^android> Live usb
[16:31] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: yes
[16:31] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: it's just the same as a livecd
[16:32] <osubuntu^android> Okay so I should find out..
[16:32] <esde> Pretty frequently I'll be using Teamviewer installed on my computer at home to connect from work. At home is ubuntu and at work is win7. When I'm connected, I have no problems with the connection. But randomly, like right now, the connection will freeze, I'll exit the connection, and try to reconnect, but will not be able to. I have tried killing the teamviewer process on the ubuntu machine and creating another, I've tried restarting teamviewer with "sudo t
[16:32] <esde> eamviewer --daemon restart" and still nothing. Is this a known bug, or what can I do to try and solve the issue without rebooting the whole machine?
[16:32] <imghost> osubuntu^android, paste the output of "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade", just for my info please its a request i just want to see the errors
[16:33] <Flummoxed> For anyone willing to help out, here's my situation. Ubuntu 12.04, unable to access just one single website. DNS resolution is happening fine (I checked through both wget and ping), but it doesn't get an http response. The site's up and running, and I can access it through my phone (using the same wifi network that my computer's connected to)
[16:33] <osubuntu^android> It simply doesnt wotk
[16:33] <daftykins> esde: we can't support *their* product, you would need to take up such issues with them
[16:33] <julio_> Guys I renamed some pictures with massive rename (using nautilus) but i need to sent some one who use windows O.S  and cannot read the pictures as a pictures...
[16:33] <osubuntu^android> Drivers are also broken
[16:33] <osubuntu^android> I have no internet access via my damaged one
[16:33] <andrex> PoZiTiFF_13, please see http://forum.ubuntu.ru/index.php?topic=166598.0 and join #ubuntu-ru
[16:34] <julio_> what could I do for fix it???
[16:34] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: that is unacceptable "it doesn't work" is not the description imghost asked for
[16:34] <imghost> osubuntu^android, thats not the expected answer
[16:34] <esde> Thanks daftykins, what was i thinking asking a huge channel of ubuntu users if they too are experiencing a bug in a product that runs on ubuntu.
[16:34] <osubuntu^android> Okay so I have to manually do it myself
[16:34] <osubuntu^android> It is risky through
[16:35] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: risky ?
[16:35] <imghost> osubuntu^android, sad :(, you should share your errors with us i bet you you will get 1000% times better solutions
[16:35] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: why is it risky ?
[16:36] <osubuntu^android> I have no safe ways to rewrite my live usb
[16:36] <osubuntu^android> My live usb is precise pengolin
[16:36] <esde> So to double-check, no one else has had issues with teamviewer freezing on ubuntu?
[16:36] <osubuntu^android> I want to install saucy
[16:37] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[16:37] <esde> Woooooooooo
[16:37] <ikonia> osubuntu^android: re-install pengolin, stable, use it to re-write with saucy, then re-install with saucy, that is safe
[16:38] <andrex> wow

[16:55] <ActionParsnip> so__: add an ampersand to the command, or press CTRL+Z then run:  bg
[16:55] <jhutchins> so__: Have you tried "man play" to see what the command options are?
[16:56] <jhutchins> YokoBR: You can add -v to the ssh command to get more feedback on what's happening.
[16:57] <so__> actionparsnip, yes you understoob me i think
[16:57] <so__> but after do you know the command to execute pause or more
[16:57] <paul_> imghost
[16:57] <imghost> yes
[16:58] <ActionParsnip> so__: run:  fg   and it will come to the foreground, then you can do as you expect
[16:58] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> hi guys
[16:58] <paul_> i couldnt copy and paste
[16:58] <ActionParsnip> so__: you can background and foreground commands as you need, dead handy
[16:58] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> how to I enable displayport?
[16:58] <ActionParsnip> so__: if yuo background many, you can call them back by number

[16:59] <YokoBR> jhutchins, http://pastebin.com/9MfSCGD7
[17:01] <pagioss> anyone using a e303 dongle?
[17:01] <YokoBR> the problem is not on the ssh client, but in the ssh server
[17:01] <paul_> imghost thanks a thousand
[17:02] <imghost> !yay
[17:02] <jhutchins> YokoBR: you can increase verbosity with additional vs up to -vvv.
[17:02] <jhutchins> YokoBR: I presume you can't check the server's logs.
[17:02] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> how to I enable display port for VGA?
[17:02] <enav1> Hello im on ubuntu 13.10 and for some reason I cant change the mysql datadir using the same method i used in previous versions... any idea ????
[17:02] <YokoBR> jhutchins, i've done with -vvv
[17:03] <jhutchins> YokoBR: Ah, so you did.
[17:03] <so__> i dont understand, i see with bg or fg i can enter somethin aside the music in progress, but what i need to write to execute pause or anything?
[17:07] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> How to I enable dual monitor on ubuntu?
[17:11] <YokoBR> i've tried to recreate the certs, clear "denyhosts", but nothing worked
[17:11] <jhutchins> JoBArTe_Skuld2: xrandr
[17:12] <jhutchins> YokoBR: Ok, this implies you DO have access to the server, look at the logs.
[17:12] <gain> hi lal
[17:12] <gain> *all
[17:12] <YokoBR> jhutchins, which?
[17:13] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> jhutchins, i tried to used this, but xrand show that display port 1 is disconnected and arand show display port 1 as inactive
[17:13] <enav1> anyone knows how to change the default mysql datadir on ubuntun 13.10?? the method i used on 12.04 wont work anymore
[17:13] <SchrodingersScat> YokoBR: is there anything in your /etc/hosts.deny ?
[17:13] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> but lshw -c display show all displays normally
[17:13] <gain> I need to fsck a ntfs partition but can't find the package that provides fsck.ntfs... tried with ntfsprogs and ntfs-3g but no success...
[17:13] <SchrodingersScat> YokoBR: and by 'anything' i mean you.
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> gain: I'd personally only chkdsk an NTFS partition in Windows or other MS setup
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> gain: do you have a Windows install CD?
[17:16] <gain> ActionParsnip: not at the moment...
[17:16] <zykotick9> gain: there is no fsck.ntfs
[17:17] <gain> zykotick9: what? I remember I've used it long time ago... maybe I'm wrong?
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> gain: http://linuxexpresso.wordpress.com/2011/09/20/howto-fix-an-ntfs-partition-in-ubuntu/
[17:17] <YokoBR> jhutchins, "connection refused while connecting to upstream
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> gain: i'd get one and you can chkdsk from the F6 recovery console
[17:17] <gain> ActionParsnip: thanks
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> gain: only Microsoft TRELY know how NTFS works as it is proprietary, so using tools from an opensource project will be best endevours only
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> gain: as Microsoft will probably never tell anyone how NTFS works
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> gain: even NTFS-3G is the result of trial and error, its not a 100% accurate tool etc
[17:19] <jhutchins> gain: Try fixntfs
[17:20] <gain> ActionParsnip: ok, I'll find a cd from someone...
[17:20] <jhutchins> gain: Try fixntfs
[17:20] <gain> jhenke: fixntfs doesn't exists... maybe you're referring to ntfsfix? just tried it without success
[17:21] <gain> jhenke: thanks anyway ;)
[17:21] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> How to I enable dual monitor on ubuntu?
[17:23] <so__> sorry, i want acced to my file on my freebox, its possible?
[17:27] <Walex> JoBArTe_Skuld2: that's usually entirely automatic.
[17:27] <Walex> JoBArTe_Skuld2: otherwise you need to write a 'xorg.conf' file or use 'xrandr' or one of its GUI frontends.
[17:28] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> Walex, I tried this
[17:28] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> before worked normally, but in update, now the video on onboard dont work, only in offboard
[17:29] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> lshw -c display show both cards, then I don't understand why not work
[17:30] <Walex> JoBArTe_Skuld2: unfortunately some driver simply don't support two card operation; also if you want two card operation 'xrandr' and GUI frontends don't support that, you have to write a 'xorg.conf'
[17:34] <catcher> Hello, I'm on 12.04LTS. What's the easiest/best way to upgrade my PHP to 5.4?  PPA?
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> catcher: there is no real best way, a PPA will package and gel with the OS better
[17:35] <r0ber> es
[17:35] <sander> Why is my resolve.conf put to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[17:36] <catcher> Is there any way to find out if/when Ubuntu will officially switch to php5.4 for 12.04?
[17:36] <Walex> catcher: of course not. it is supposedly stable.
[17:36] <jennie> Walex -In context of installing Canon2900B printer installation  paste.debian.net/70742/  Why you told to do command at line#3 and line#5 and also at several forums I read about installing printer they told to do command at line#43 and line#44, why ?
[17:36] <so__> how see the file on my internetbox?
[17:36] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> Walex, in my ubuntu dont have xorg.conf on x11 folder :|
[17:36] <so__> with the terminal
[17:37] <Walex> JoBArTe_Skuld2: you got to create one.
[17:37] <JoBArTe_Skuld2> Walex, how to I create one?
[17:37] <Walex> JoBArTe_Skuld2: some utilities will create a simple one and then you have to add support for both devices
[17:37]  * JoBArTe_Skuld2 saw that have xorg.conf-backups....
[17:37] <jhutchins> so__: Have you looked at the man page yet?
[17:38] <T5u> does anyone know http requests really well? How do you send a request in browser that contains the username/password in the same way that curl -u username:password does it?
[17:38] <Walex> jennie: 'sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libglade2-0 libpopt0:i386' is because those are listed as the 'Depends:' prerequisites of the Canon '.deb'
[17:39] <rodhash> Hello guys … does the HTML5 works smoothly??? I've searched a lot but not all videos on Youtube works .. just few : /
[17:39] <Walex> jennie: in an ideal world the driver packages would be installed with APT and the dependencies would be automatic, but Canon recommend in their installation guide ot use 'dpkg' and manually preinstall the dependencies that they list in that installation guide.
[17:40] <so__> so, what i write on the man?
[17:40] <jennie> ok Walex and what about the command at line #43 and #44?
[17:40] <sander> I dont get how the my nameserver can be on <IP_ADDRESS>.. when the local interface is <IP_ADDRESS>..
[17:40] <dhci> my motherboard specification lists Bluetooth ADR 2.1 on it, does this mean in theory ubuntu can detect it as a device or must it be a usb device?
[17:40] <zykotick9> sander: that's N-M's new setup?  don't ask me how it works though
[17:41] <jhutchins> JoBArTe_Skuld2: Xorg --configure
[17:41] <rodhash> guys ... Anyone here managed to effectively play HTML5??
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> sander: you can run a DNS server on the same server you are using the network on, quite simple
[17:41] <Mark_de_J> *waves*
[17:41] <jhutchins> rodhash: At least wait for your question to scoll off before repeating it.
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> sander: if you add lines to the bottom of /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head it will be added each boot, its a hack but it works
[17:42] <jhutchins> rodhash: Just like flash, there's good HTML5 and there's bad, and a lot depends on your connection.
[17:42] <Walex> jennie: as to #43 and #44 those should probably have been included in the '.deb' but Canon forgot them. This seems surprising to me.
[17:42] <zenpac> How do I modify my kernel .config so that it only is using the current running modules?
[17:42] <longship_> recently set up ubuntu server 12.04.  I installed Hamachi and set a static ip address for my server.  However hamachi wouldn't connect until i changed the ip back to dhcp.
[17:43] <jennie> Walex- what is work of line#43 and line #44 ?
[17:43] <zenpac> I thought there was a quick way to do that
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> sander: nmcli dev list iface eth0 | grep IP4       will show your actual nameserver used by network manager
[17:43] <dhci> bluetooth seems useful if you have say a printer in vicinity, mouse, keyboard, perhaps even a smartphone or headset.
[17:44] <Walex> jennie: creates the spool directory and the spool service socket for the Canon rasterizer daemon 'ccpd', and there is not much more to say
[17:44] <Mark_de_J> Are there virusses for Linux? :P
[17:45] <sander> ActionParsnip, Thanks alot:) . Just curous how it works.. ahh.. now I figured it out <IP_ADDRESS> is mapped in /etc/hosts :)
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> Mark_de_J: yes but there are so few and none are wild that its a negligible issue
[17:45] <Walex> dhci: I don't much like BlueTooth as for common peripherals wires are not a problem. It is pretty good though for microphones and earphones
[17:45] <imghost> Mark_de_J, not much
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> sander: yes every OS will resolve its own hostname to <IP_ADDRESS>/8
[17:45] <Walex> dhci: because it is rather inconvenient to have long wires to your head.
[17:45] <Mark_de_J> So I don´t need an AV?
[17:45] <imghost> Mark_de_J, no
[17:45] <sander> ActionParsnip, ok.
[17:45] <Mark_de_J> Thanks! :)
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> sander: so that local resources can talk to themselves, using the loopback interface, dead handy
[17:46] <imghost> Mark_de_J, virus is just a program that load automatically wihout your permission
[17:46] <dhci> bluez utils don't really detect anything unless there is a usb bluetooth dongle plugged in. dmesg reports a bunch of bluetooth initializations for me however I can't tell if it found an actual device
[17:46] <jhutchins> ActionParsnip: Check your hosts file.
[17:47] <Mark_de_J> imghost, what do you mean?
[17:47] <jhutchins> ActionParsnip: Or ifconfig lo
[17:47] <Walex> jennie: however the service socket most likely is not necessary, as CUPS communicates with 'ccpd' by default over the port at #6 and #9.
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6567919/
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: whats your point?
[17:48] <jhutchins> ActionParsnip: That's different.  The actual standard is <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:48] <imghost> Mark_de_J, one line definition of a virus
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: try pinging <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: this is a standard install
[17:49] <Mark_de_J> Is that also the reason you must always enter your password when you install stuff etc
[17:49] <iolsson> hey guys, i'm having a really strange problem with sshd (openSSH) on ubuntu 13.10. i have horrible delay (5-10 seconds) on each keystroke. if i ping between the machines, i get <15ms ping which is really good
[17:49] <iolsson> suggestions?
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: ANY IP that falls into <IP_ADDRESS>/8 will reply as it is the loopback network, it all goes back to the local PC
[17:49] <jennie> okay Walex :-)
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: so you can change that IP if you want, it will still work
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: as long as the first octet is 127
[17:50] <jhutchins> Traditionally <IP_ADDRESS> is the internal clock.
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: it doesnt make any difference at all
[17:51] <imghost> Mark_de_J, yes you can say entering password simply means to me that i am allowing program to run you are providing authentication to a process to proceed further
[17:52] <Mark_de_J> oh, can I then change the password of my root account and main account?
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/rfc/rfc3330.txt   "<IP_ADDRESS>/8 - This block is assigned for use as the Internet host loopback address.  A datagram sent by a higher level protocol to an address anywhere within this block should loop back inside the host
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: defacto factory standard
[17:52] <imghost> Mark_de_J, yes
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> jhutchins: the fact you see <IP_ADDRESS> is just a formality
[17:53] <Mark_de_J> How?
[17:53] <Mark_de_J> sudo apt-get newpasswordthing?
[17:54] <imghost> Mark_de_J, if you are new user try to change password by going to useraccounts under system settings
[17:54] <Mark_de_J> imghost, I want learn with commands.
[17:55] <imghost> Mark_de_J, fyi, use man commands to learn about any other commands start with simple basics
[17:55] <Mark_de_J> And I cant change root password where you told?
[17:55] <so__> how sur on my servers freebox and see her file?
[17:55] <so__> surf*
[17:56] <imghost> Mark_de_J, its not better to just copy and paste and solve your problem give some time to understand basic
[17:56] <zykotick9> !noroot | Mark_de_J
[17:56] <Khal0726> Hello, what's is the french channel ubuntu?
[17:56] <Mark_de_J> !root
[17:56] <zykotick9> !fr | Khal0726
[17:56] <jhutchins> !fr
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> Mark_de_J: you dont need to, just use sudo. Lots easier
[17:57] <Mark_de_J> !wfm
[17:57] <Khal0726> Thank you :)
[17:57] <Mark_de_J> Ok thanks! LD
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> so__: seems to use UPnP, you can connect to it with a UPnP client like VLC, Gnome-Mplayer
[17:58] <apb1963> ubuntu  12.04.3  I've got artifacts.  I can't remove them no matter what I do
[17:58] <Mark_de_J> I need learn a lot lol
[17:59] <so__> ok
[17:59] <imghost> Mark_de_J, fyi, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal?action=show&redirect=terminal
[17:59] <so__> so i have to apt-get vlc?
[17:59] <so__> or gnome player?
[18:00] <Mark_de_J> To much text.
[18:01] <zenpac> Is there a way to setup a kernel config that reads the currently loaded modules and features?
[18:01] <imghost> Mark_de_J, start learning and if you did not understand any syntax you are most welcomed to ask it her and clear your doubts :), i am away now
[18:02] <zenpac> make oldconfig?
[18:02] <Mark_de_J> Me 2, cya.
[18:02] <zykotick9> zenpac: check /boot for config-...
[18:02] <HisaoNakai> Hey folks. During a recent system upgrade, apt upgrades firefox, then it apparently wants to download the Flash plugin while installing and it's been stuck at that since more than an hour now. No indication of size or progress. Ctrl+c doesn't kill it. Suggestions?
[18:04] <zenpac> zykotick9: I have that. but I thought you could prune all the unneeded modules that were not in memory too...  ?
[18:05] <zykotick9> zenpac: you probably "can".  but it's also probably NOT a good idea - and generally a waste of time... best of luck to you.
[18:06] <zenpac> zykotick9: ok.. Its been a while since i compiled and installed one.. So I may just use the oldconfig
[18:06] <zykotick9> !kernel | zenpac
[18:07] <zenpac> !mainline
[18:09] <hydra7> somebody help me in reinstalling flash player. the problem is similar to this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/319111/unable-to-update-or-reinstall-flash-player-after-update
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> so__: apt-get install vlc     you need to tell apt-get to install the application
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> so__: or use software centre
[18:13] <hydra7> somebody?
[18:14] <Guest39430> I'm sorry if this sounds like a silly question...
[18:15] <Guest39430> I tried going to something called "gconf-editor" to disable my tooltips, yet my Unbuntu 13.04 doesn't seem to have "gconf-editor".
[18:16] <YokoBR> could be possible that my ubuntu server is blocking my mac adress to connect by ssh?
[18:16] <Guest39430> When I type in "gconf-editor" after pressing alt-f2, nothing happens.
[18:17] <cinderweb> #themanaworld
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Guest39430: try running it from a terminal
[18:18] <xangua> Guest39430: you just have to uninstall notify-osd package, but why do you not want tooltip notifications?
[18:18] <Rory> Guest39430: gconf-editor hasn't been used for a while, not since Gnome 2
[18:18] <Guest39430> I just realized that "gconf-editor" isn't installed, according to my Terminal.
[18:19] <Rory> Guest39430: You can install it
[18:20] <Guest39430> They pop about every 15-20 seconds and they take about a minute or so to disappear.
[18:20] <Guest39430> Sorry, I haven't used IRC before.
[18:21] <thekkid> I need to make a script that takes in a bunch of lines and for each line writes 100 lines of incrementing numbers. i.e. a -> a000, a001, a002, a003
[18:28] <knight__> Hello, I have problem with that http://put.sk/img/3209kvm-onepk-problem.PNG I use 3.11.0-12-generic @ x86_64
[18:29] <jonne_> my dad stupidly turned off his laptop right in the middle of upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10, and even though i managed to get a somewhat working system by running dpkg --configure -a , it seems like it's missing a bunch of drivers, crucially any sort of network drive
[18:29] <jonne_> how can i check whether the drivers are on the system?
[18:29] <milapurr> Hey, I finally got ubuntu to work... can anyone tell me how to get my xbox controller to work D:?
[18:29] <jonne_> lshw -C network
[18:29] <jonne_> shows both interfaces as UNCLAIMED
[18:34] <Hassen> hello
[18:35] <Hassen> basically i have a pc where i ran ubuntu live cd so I copy my personal files to another win7 PC(using LAN)
[18:35] <Hassen> i wonder how to do it
[18:36] <jhutchins> Hassen: winscp
[18:36] <jhutchins> Hassen: puttyscp
[18:36] <daftykins> ^if you want to wait an eternity
[18:36] <jhutchins> Hassen: Samba/cifs
[18:36] <daftykins> else mount a file share from the networked Windows PC
[18:36] <SchrodingersScat> Hassen: rsync is nice
[18:37] <jhutchins> daftykins: That's not actually any faster.
[18:37] <daftykins> sure it is
[18:37] <daftykins> no encryption, no overhead
[18:37] <Hassen> lay those software be installed in the live ubuntu pc?
[18:37] <Hassen> may*
[18:37] <daftykins> if not they can be added easily
[18:39] <Walex> jonne_: you can complete the upgrade by rerunning the 'apt-get dist-upgrade'
[18:39] <jhutchins> daftykins: You need to do something on the windows system too.  Share a folder, set up an rsync/scp service, or use an scp program on the windows system and run the ssh daemon on the Ubuntu box.
[18:40] <Walex> jonne_: as to drivers, almost all of them are part of the kernel package, and in particular the network drivers are, so once the new kernel packages are fully installed the drivers should be available.
[18:40] <jonne_> Walex, will that work without any internet?
[18:40] <camilo> buenas buenas
[18:40] <daftykins> jhutchins: sure, you don't need to tell me that - i'm not the one asking :D
[18:40] <Walex> jonne_: just to be sure that they are visible however run 'sudo depmod -a'
[18:40] <zzecool> hello guys im running on an old 12.10 installation and i want to upgrade to 13.04 but the update manager only gives me 13.10 as a choice  .. is there any way to point 13.04 for install ?
[18:41] <camilo> alguien habla español speak spanish
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> zzecool: run:   sudo do-release-upgrade
[18:41] <jhutchins> !es
[18:41] <Walex> jonne_: 'apt-get dist-upgrade' will attempt to download any missing packages...
[18:41] <Seveas> !es | camilo
[18:41] <zzecool> ActionParsnip: as i said i only get 13.10 as a choise
[18:41] <camilo> gracias
[18:41] <zzecool> choice*
[18:41] <jhutchins> zzecool: You might want to make a backup first, 13.10 has been breaking a lot of things.
[18:42] <milapurr> Okay I tried rebooting and my controller still doesnt work and is not recognized... can someone help?
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> zzecool: you never said the method you were using
[18:42] <jonne_> box is still rebooting, i'll report back after i try everything
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> zzecool: you can boot to 13.04 install media and the upgrade will be offered
[18:42] <jhutchins> milapurr: What controller?
[18:42] <milapurr> Rock Candy XBox360 wired
[18:43] <Danato> jhutchins: what did 13.10 break? jst curious
[18:43] <zzecool> ActionParsnip: it isnt even possible to upgrade to 13.10 using do-release-upgrade "An upgrade from 'quantal' to 'saucy' is not supported with this tool." thats why im trying to get 13.04
[18:43] <milapurr> Im following the instructions left here on OMGubuntu, but...
[18:43] <FCR> Hey anyone can help me out?
[18:44] <jhutchins> Danato: I haven't really been keeping track, it depends on your setup.  I know there have been problems with video and with networking.
[18:44] <milapurr> It seems to me xboxdrv doesnt work at all with this controller.
[18:44] <FCR> I'm using Steam For Linux but it's really awful
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> zzecool: you may be able to mount the Raring ISO and run the upgrade from there
[18:44] <Guest15735> Okay so my name is now guest
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: can you expand on the question plase
[18:44] <Guest15735> Still but anyone can help me?
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: nobody can help you as you have given near-zero detail
[18:44] <zzecool> ActionParsnip: cdromupgrade doesnt exist on 13.04 and 13.10 isos
[18:44] <jonne_> dist-upgrade seems to work
[18:44] <Guest15735> Okay I have Steam For linux, it's kinda cool when I found out
[18:44] <Guest15735> When I installed
[18:44] <Guest15735> It was kk and stuf
[18:44] <Guest15735> *Stuff
[18:44] <Pici> !enter
[18:44] <zzecool> ActionParsnip: and boot upgrade is not an option right now
[18:44] <jonne_> it's still running, but i saw eth0 come up already
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: can you use enter less please
[18:46] <Guest15735> But I was going to download Half-Life 1, and the download speed was awful, 1-10KB/S. On Portal download, I set the bandwidth thing limit to 512KB/S, helped a bit but still, it felt down to 0B/S
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: are applications like Firefox and other web using applications slow too?
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: and updates
[18:47] <Guest15735> Nope. none.
[18:47] <Guest15735> Everything is updated.
[18:47] <zzecool> ActionParsnip: i think my only hope is a network install using alternative cd , i wish there is an other way
[18:47] <Guest15735> So I was going to download Left 4 Dead 2
[18:47] <milapurr> It still recognizes my controller as Generic X-box pad and wont work in minecraft. (Dont ask)
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: no, I asked if they were slow, not are you updated
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: try reading what I write
[18:47] <Guest15735> I am updated.
[18:47] <zzecool> lol
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: again, thats NOT the question
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: are applications like Firefox and other web using applications slow too?
[18:48] <Guest15735> Nope
[18:48] <Guest15735> Only steam.
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: better, see what happens when you read

[18:49]  * ActionParsnip dispairs
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: are there any posts on forums reporting the same issue?
[18:49] <Guest15735> Until 1,4GB done, the speed was 600KB/s, taking a minute or two to fall down to 0B/S
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: have you asked in #ubuntu-stea,
[18:49] <Guest15735> Oh I found some on the internet
[18:49]  * zzecool is looking  little Heroes of ubuntu support
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest15735: have you asked in #ubuntu-steam
[18:49] <Guest15735> Oh there is a channel?

[18:52] <ActionParsnip> zzecool: thats all I got. I single boot and always clean install. Maybe others can advise
[18:53] <milapurr> So can anyone help me?
[18:54] <gordonjcp> milapurr: depends what sort of "won't work" you mean
[18:54] <milapurr> my program recognizes it as Generic x-box pad
[18:54] <milapurr> And it wont let me do anything
[18:54] <milapurr> in the program I use the joytokey with I can't move, mine... noting

[18:59] <Cryp71c> For linux environments, I see the separation of sites-available and sites-enabled quite often; but sites-enabled has (by default) some numbers prefixed before them. I was wondering why that was done?
[19:00] <jhutchins> Cryp71c: They load in numerical order.
[19:01] <milapurr> back, sorry I had to take my dog out...
[19:01] <milapurr> she cant walk
[19:01] <jhutchins> Cryp71c: Not that the RedHat variations have not yet adopted that format, but you can set it up manually there.
[19:01] <milapurr> but yeah, can someone get my controller on here to be recognized?
[19:06] <milapurr> OKAy I can give you info now
[19:07] <milapurr> Xboxdrv says: No controller detected.
[19:07] <milapurr> but it's plugged in.
[19:09] <milapurr> Is there something on ubuntu called a device manager?
[19:09] <milapurr> Or similar to?
[19:13] <milapurr> Hello?
[19:13] <milapurr> so is there no one who can help me?
[19:14] <nobitanobi> Hi guys. I am trying to use Monit, but I am running into problems. First, I have uncommented the following file sudo vim /etc/monit/monitrc with this: https://gist.github.com/novito/7949551
[19:14] <Beldar> milapurr, I just logged on have you given a end goal, I see only part of your posts.
[19:16] <milapurr> Beldar: Trying to get a 360 controller to work
[19:16] <milapurr> but xboxdrv wont recognize it
[19:16] <Beldar> milapurr, run in the terminal lsusb and see if it shows.
[19:16] <Beldar> lsusb*
[19:17] <milapurr> oh my gosh I have no clue if it's on here Beldar.
[19:18] <Beldar> milapurr, The controller is plugged into the computer?
[19:18] <milapurr> Yep.
[19:18] <milapurr> I posted the output on there.
[19:19] <milapurr> it works on a 360 and worked in windows.
[19:19] <Beldar> milapurr, Cool so run that command and pastebin the info
[19:19] <milapurr> Its got power as well.
[19:19] <milapurr> Oh I pasted it in a message to you Beldar.
[19:19] <Beldar> milapurr, I have pm off
[19:19] <FCRSteam> How I can see what programs are taking my internet?

[19:23] <milapurr> xboxdrv is already the newest version.
[19:23] <milapurr> And I get this as well
[19:23] <milapurr> No Xbox or Xbox360 controller found
[19:23] <Beldar> milapurr, I just noticed the two commands
[19:25] <milapurr> Beldar, any idea what I can do? ITs the same company that makes the afterglow controllers
[19:28] <milapurr> beldar, I have more pastebin info
[19:28] <Beldar> milapurr, Not really I am not a gamer never used this device, the key here generally is details.
[19:28] <milapurr> http://pastebin.com/XyWjaAPy
[19:28] <milapurr> Xpad recognizes it.
[19:29] <milapurr> should I blacklist xpad so Xboxdrv works?
[19:29] <Beldar> milapurr, That is good you just need the right helper and probably a whole lotta patience. ;)
[19:29] <milapurr> Ah.
[19:30] <Beldar> once it works it works. ;)
[19:32] <milapurr> I think I found it's problem
[19:32] <SchrodingersScat> milapurr: its
[19:32] <milapurr> oh.
[19:33] <milapurr> Xpad is blocking Xboxdrv
[19:33] <milapurr> so thats why I gotta blacklist and reboot.
[19:33] <milapurr> okay...
[19:35] <Chaz> gui
[19:36] <milapurr> Okay, that didnt work as I thought it would.
[19:37] <milapurr> instead of having 1player lit now it constantly flashes.
[19:38] <blz> Hello, I have a quick question about UNIX sockets.    The wikipedia entry states that "Unix domain sockets use the file system as their address name space. They are referenced by processes as inodes in the file system. This allows two processes to open the same socket in order to communicate. However, communicati
[19:38] <blz> on occurs entirely within the operating system kernel."  I take this to mean that A) Permissions apply and B) I can't pass an arbitrary path that doesn't exist on my filesystem (e.g.: /blah/foo/bar)  Is this correct?
[19:38] <Isualin> if i open an image with shotwell viewer and drag it with mouse i get a "broken pipe" error and go back to login screen. what might be the problem?
[19:39] <wafflejock> blz: yes this is correct, I'm not super familiar with the details but was reading up on using the mysql.sock path which is a UNIX socket and does have file permissions like any other path, regarding how to set up a UNIX socket I'm unclear on the details
[19:40] <blz> wafflejock, haha okay, thanks. That clears up question A =)
[19:41] <wafflejock> blz: check out the comment from dlthomas on this page, he seems to know what he's talking about http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/how-can-i-create-a-socket-file-248399/
[19:42] <blz> very cool, thank you!
[19:42] <blz> wafflejock, ^
[19:42] <wafflejock> blz: sure thing always had me wondering too may dig into this a bit more for my own sake
[19:42] <blz> haha down the rabbit hole!
[19:43] <wafflejock> blz: hehe indeed
[19:44] <DelphiWorld> hi ubunt you;)
[19:47] <blz> wafflejock, the kind wizards at ##linux answered my incantation -- indeed unix sockets behave exactly like files and must exist along a real path
[19:48] <blz> wafflejock, and, as you said, permissions apply
[19:48] <hawa> i cannot install ia32-libs says unmet dependencies. how do i install with dependencies installed???
[19:49] <Jordan_U> hawa: How are you trying to install ia32-libs?
[19:49] <jss1> hello, I have a computerproblem; my system will boot, but no bios showing up due to uncomplete overclocking, does someone now where to find a solution? (resetting the cmos-bios is not working)
[19:49] <hawa> Jordan_U: from apt-get
[19:50] <wafflejock> blz: yeah I actually ran into an issue with KMail that ultimately stems back to a problem with Akonadi which is the program that handles the "backend" storage of data for KMail.... Akonadi has a dependency on some sort of DB to store part of the info and I was fighting with trying to make it work so lots of futzing with this yesterday... still no solution but I just installed Thunderbird... may stick with a web client for now but I
[19:50] <wafflejock>  did like KMail when it was working on my previous install... I may pop in at ##linux
[19:50] <Jordan_U> hawa: What version of Ubuntu are you using and why are you trying to install ia32-libs?
[19:50] <jemark> jss1: did you remove the cmos battery and do a power drain?
[19:50] <hawa> i am using precise
[19:50] <[Gentoo]> jss1: resetting cmos should work, drain the power completely also by unplugging the PC from the wall and press/hold the front power button a few times
[19:50] <hawa> Jordan_U: because there is some problem with ADB from ADT bundle...
[19:51] <wafflejock> hawa: are you sure you got ADT for the right architecture?
[19:51] <jss1> ah, i think i didn't drain the system,
[19:51] <jemark> jss1: good luck
[19:51] <jss1> i'll go try to fix it that way
[19:51] <hawa> wafflejock: i am sure i got it for 64 bit... as i am using 64bit precise
[19:52] <jemark> jss1: let me know if it worked
[19:52] <jhutchins> wafflejock: I haven't been able to get that whole kmail/akonadi mess to work.  It's ridiculous.  I don't need indexed metadata on my email.
[19:52] <ldlework> What's the absolute minimum needed to compile, say Python.
[19:53] <jhutchins> Ridiculously elaborate (and disfunctional) crap like that should NOT be enabled by default, it should be optional.
[19:53] <ldlework> is build-essential, really just th essentials?
[19:53] <jhutchins> ldlework: Yes, including the espresso maker built into the kitchen sink.
[19:53] <hawa> can somebody help me install ia32-libs???
[19:53] <Jordan_U> hawa: If Android Debug Bridge is a 64 bit application why are you trying to install ia32-libs?
[19:54] <wafflejock> hawa: yeah sounds right if uname -a shows you x86_64 then I believe you should be using the 64-bit linux download.... it works here but using Kubuntu 13.10, so a bit off, regarding your problem post the pastebin of your apt-get install line and results, someone may be able to help then
[19:54] <wafflejock> agree with Jordan_U though don't see why you would need the ia32-libs
[19:54] <hawa> Jordan_U: i dunno... i mean the adt doesnt launch... says cannot find the adb file even if it is there...
[19:56] <Jordan_U> hawa: Try asking about that in #android-dev, ia32-libs seems completely irrelevant to that problem.
[19:56] <Christoph_vW> drupal7 package in ubuntu 12.04 seems to lack at least 7 security updates... :/
[19:56] <hawa> http://pastebin.com/HXW3CJvf
[19:56] <hawa> Jordan_U: tnx... sure
[19:57] <wafflejock> jhutchins: yeah I don't see why it isn't using SQLite or something if it doesn't really need mysql and it causes this much extra trouble... I installed lamp for doing dev stuff on this box not sure if that caused more issues or if this is just how it is right now
[19:57] <jhutchins> Christoph_vW: You need to maintain drupal using it's own notification tools.
[19:57] <Jordan_U> hawa: Though that error message suggests other problems you might have. Please pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get -f install".
[19:57] <Christoph_vW> jhutchins: why is the package included in ubuntu then? when it is not maintained
[19:59] <jss1> hmmm, so i tried to take out battery, and to drain the power, now i put the battery back and plugged it back in, system is completely dead...
[19:59] <xnite> I am working with a client's VPS server, they are on a Ubuntu 11.10 install within an OpenVZ environment. I'm trying to dist-upgrade it and ran "apt-get update" followed by "apt-get upgrade" followed by "apt-get dist-upgrade", it installed like 2 packages on the dist-upgrade & I'm curious as to which version it would have bumped to if any at all. It didn't seem like enough for a complete dist-upgrade. (I'm
[19:59] <xnite>  trying to bring it to current).
[19:59] <hawa> Jordan_U:http://pastebin.com/Tf9k7yRT
[20:00] <[Gentoo]> jss1: doesnt turn on at all?
[20:00] <wafflejock> Christoph_vW: packages included in the main repos will generally lag compared to getting something directly from a third-part it doesn't mean updates aren't coming it just means they haven't had the time to test it out yet to push the updates into the main repo
[20:00] <DJones> !dist-upgrade | xnite
[20:00] <jss1> no, it doesn't turn on at all,
[20:00] <[Gentoo]> jss1: did you remember to plug it back in?
[20:00] <wafflejock> Christoph_vW: if you need the bleeding edge you have to compile yourself or find others who have done it for you in most cases
[20:00] <xnite> !upgrade
[20:00] <Beldar> !eol | xnite lookat eol upgrade path
[20:00] <jss1> yet on the motherboard the indicator led shows that the system has got power
[20:01] <Christoph_vW> wafflejock: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/drupal7.html
[20:01] <[Gentoo]> jss1: well a power drain wont kill your system, make sure the battery is in properly or did you use a cmos reset button?
[20:01] <DJones> xnite: If you were expecting it upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04, dist-upgrade wouldn't do that, it basically just installs kernal upgrades for the release you're on
[20:01] <Christoph_vW> wafflejock: I just like to have a secure system...
[20:01] <jss1> i pushed front panel reset button
[20:02] <xnite> DJones: is it possible just to go straight from 11.10 to current? Or do I need to follow the upgrade steps for each individual release?
[20:02] <[Gentoo]> jss1: maybe the cmos reset button isnt working, i would drain the power, take the cmos battery out manually for ~10 seconds then try again
[20:03] <pagioss> hi i am trying to run /usr/bin/wvdial con1 &> /output.log in /etc/rc.local but it seesm nothing is being executed any idea?
[20:03] <DJones> xnite: Without a fresh install, you have to go release by release, I'd say upgrade to 12.04 and then wait until the release of 14.04 which you will be able to directly upgrade to because they're both LTS releases, otherwise, you'll have to go to 12.10, 13.04 and then 13.10 in sequence
[20:03] <Ale1> my "software & updates" dont work. i have ubuntu 13.10
[20:03] <me1984> Hello
[20:04] <Jazz> Hey hey
[20:04] <Beldar> Ale1, Don't work is to vague give details
[20:04] <me1984> Is this the right place for Ubuntu support?  I'm stumped.
[20:04] <Jazz> anyone have any advice on the best media server to run? New to Ubuntu
[20:04] <Beldar> me1984, yes give details
[20:04] <wafflejock> Christoph_vW: well security means a lot of things, cananocial provides a certain amount of stability and support for packages included in the distro they are in part taking some responsibility by having a repo and reputation everyone can point at, Drupal users within Ubuntu are likely a small subset, so this is a subset of a subset of users, their concerns over Drupal security updates probably don't outweigh all the other security
[20:04] <wafflejock> concerns with just bringing in new code, I use PHP and Apache and MySQL, since i wanted some bleeding edge PHP parts for doing dev I had to either install from source or trust a third party PPA (which I did initially, now after distro upgrade I got the PHP I need anyhow)
[20:04] <chatterx> is there any spanish ubuntu support?
[20:05] <Beldar> !es | chatterx
[20:05] <Ale1> i open it and select revent. dont hapen anything
[20:05] <Anuska> si
[20:06] <Beldar> Ale1, In the terminal run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and pastebin all of it.

[20:06] <me1984> I have a remote server that was rebooted and now SSH server is not running.  When the server boots, it is reachable via ping and a couple ports are open, but not SSH.  When I boot to rescue mode (essentially Debian LiveCD) I observe that no logs are updated, indicating to me that the server isn't actually booting.  'Upstart' directory has it's timestamp updated each reboot attempt, however.
[20:07] <me1984> Any pointers?
[20:07] <leptone> [2428.311881] ERROR @wl_inform_single_bss :  cfg80211_inform_bss_frame error

[20:07] <cloneG> glitsj16: still eager to help?
[20:08] <Beldar> me1984, If this is a debian server see #debian
[20:08] <leptone> can some one help me resolve this please?
[20:08] <yahar> im using nvidia gtx 260 and when i set my resolution it is a little bit to large.  In windows in the nvidia app you can drag and drop to resize the desktop after setting the resolution but not on linux.  Does anyone know of a way to resize the desktop without changing resolution?
[20:08] <wafflejock> me1984: is this a VPS on Amazon or some other VPS provider, I'm not sure what you should do but it may help get feedback from others
[20:08] <Mollusk> Problems installing Ubuntu on an Intel Next. Using USB drive. I select "install Ubuntu" then it gives me (infrarms) cant find a live file system medium. Googled it, but nothing is working. Set to AHCI, most commands in GRUB such as "Partnew" do not work. Replies "unknown command". Using UEFI boot system, tried legacy, same issue. Concerned that I dont have root access and drive is unpartitioned.
[20:08] <me1984> It's Ubuntu 12.04.  The only rescue option my host gives me is essentially Debian LiveCD.
[20:09] <me1984> wafflejock: It's a dedicated server
[20:09] <Beldar> Mollusk, Do you get to the live desktop?
[20:10] <Mollusk> no, after selecting the install option, it shows the ubuntu loading dots, then kicks to the Infrarm issue
[20:10] <jss1> i retried the part of unplugging, taking battery out, powerdrain and put everything back:   system turns on, but no bios
[20:11] <[Gentoo]> jss1: you might have possibly damaged the cpu / motherboard with overclocking
[20:12] <[Gentoo]> did you raise voltages?
[20:12] <wafflejock> jss1: if you have an unbootable system (I haven't followed the whole conversation) and do not even get a BIOS screen it is one of these things that is failing: Power Supply, CPU, Motherboard, RAM
[20:12] <jss1>  hmmmm, i was affraid it might be that, i really hoped it would be oke, but i'll send it in for a checkup tomorrow...
[20:12] <wafflejock> jss1: easiest to check is RAM if you have more than one stick take the rest out and try to boot with just one, if that one doesn't work swap it for one other one, that basically eliminates the RAM isue
[20:12] <me1984> If one can only access files but not run anything installed on the server, is there a way I can tell if it's actually booting?  Is it possible that Ubuntu would boot without updating any logs?
[20:12] <Beldar> Mollusk, I think runnable however will need some tweaking is all, not sure of those tweaks though.
[20:12] <[Gentoo]> when you overclock and raise volts, it put more strain on the psu and it can cause all sorts of issues
[20:13] <bekks> me1984: No.
[20:13] <Mollusk> ty Beldar
[20:13] <me1984> Bekks: No you cannot tell, or no it's not possible?
[20:13] <bekks> me1984: No, it isnt possible.
[20:14] <jhutchins> me1984: If you boot the system it will append the logs and overwrite dmesg.
[20:14] <Beldar> Ale1, If you get those commands pastebinned use my nick when you post.
[20:14] <jhutchins> me1984: If you boot to a live CD, it will preserve the logs (but still overwrite dmesg).
[20:15] <jhutchins> jss1: Does it beep?
[20:15] <Ale1> Beldar. i past the comand and the terminas is making something
[20:16] <Beldar> Ale1, What is your native language?
[20:16] <Ale1> albanian
[20:17] <wafflejock> jss1: jhutchins has a good point here, if you are having video/monitor issues you may not see the BIOS but should still hear the beep
[20:17] <me1984> I boot to the LiveCD so I can access the filesystem.  When viewing logs, they have not been updated since the system was originally rebooted.  However, when booting to disk the server gets to a state where networking is up and it respons to ping.  Is there some kind of pre-Linux limbo state where networking would be up?
[20:17] <jss1> it gives a short 'toot-toot' noise,
[20:18] <jhutchins> jss1: You can try re-seating the RAM, and possibly remove one stick at a time.  It wouldn't hurt to re-seat the CPU, but make sure you don't loose the dielectric thermal grease between it and the heatsink.  Reseating drive cables is a good idea too.
[20:18] <jss1> i know the monitor works, because i am using it right now , with the same cable onnected to my laptop,
[20:18] <wafflejock> jss1: does it sound like a regular boot up noise or do you recall if it normally just beeps once?  if you can find your motherboard manual it may tell you what the beep codes mean and you might get more info from that, my motherboard has a little LCD on it that gives POST codes for whats going wrong
[20:19] <jhutchins> jss1: The good news is that if it beeps the motherboard is probably ok.
[20:19] <jhutchins> wafflejock: Nice mb!
[20:19] <wafflejock> jhutchins: yeah it's pretty awesome I gotta say :)
[20:19] <jhutchins> We used to have a card that you could plug in to display that back in the 90's.
[20:20] <Ale1> Beldar. this command install nvidia driver?
[20:20] <cybes> hi guys.
[20:20] <MrJerome> what is the recommended way to install a current version of PHP for use with lighttpd? The package version is quite old.
[20:20] <cybes> anyone please tell me a valid source.list
[20:20] <jss1> normally after the toottoot tthere is a higher beep, but that's gone for now... i'll go try swapping ram, and see if it changes anything
[20:20] <cybes> i can't able to install traceroute package
[20:20] <jhutchins> !sources.list
[20:20] <wafflejock> jhutchins: yeah same idea just built onto the board which is nice I never got around to really using one of those POST cards though think it was just before my time in IT
[20:20] <[Gentoo]> jss1: 90% of the time it is ram if it beeps
[20:21] <Beldar> Ale1, It is a updates and upgrades in general, you said from what I could tell this was not working.
[20:21] <cybes> jhutchins: sorry i don't have gui
[20:21] <cybes> this is a server having only shell access
[20:21] <Beldar> Ale1, This was to check if that was true.
[20:22] <lonewulf85> Hey everyone my Dimmer switches do not work please help.
[20:22] <Ale1> Beldar. ok what i can do for drivers?
[20:22] <wafflejock> lonewulf85: you mean your brightness keys on a laptop?
[20:22] <cybes> W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404  Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[20:22] <Beldar> lonewulf85, release your running to the channel, what you have tried....details
[20:23] <xangua> cybes: time to upgrade to a supported ubuntu version
[20:23] <Pici> cybes: Hardy is no longer supported.
[20:23] <Beldar> Ale1, Not an area I really know, nor part of your original post.
[20:23] <lonewulf85> wafflejock, Acer netbook actually. AO722
[20:23] <jhutchins> cybes: You don't need a gui if you have lynx.
[20:23] <me1984> So no suggestions on how to resolve boot issues?
[20:24] <wafflejock> lonewulf85: well if no one else here can give you a direct answer I think I know a workarond but will take a bit of legwork on your part
[20:24] <lonewulf85> wafflejock, Lets give it a shot.
[20:24] <cybes> sorry that source.list i entered myown line
[20:24] <cybes> from ubuntu site
[20:24] <cybes> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[20:24] <cybes> is only available from another source
[20:24] <cybes> E: Package 'traceroute' has no installation candidate
[20:24] <cybes> this is what i get
[20:24] <Beldar> Ale1, Was this originally about additional drivers in software sources?
[20:25] <cybes> using the default source
[20:25] <acovrig> I use xscreensaver, it dims the displays when going to the screensaver, sometimes when it comes back, it doesn't fully un-dim them, why?
[20:25] <jhutchins> cybes: Yeah, don't know what brilliant twit decided the sources.list resource should be a GUI, sorry.
[20:25] <jhutchins> cybes: I'm afraid I can't reach my ubuntu box right now.
[20:25] <cybes> oh np
[20:26] <Ale1> Beldar. i can't find software sources. where is it?
[20:26] <wafflejock> lonewulf85: you can use xev to get the keycode from a key then use xbindkeys to setup a "trigger" to call a script that will update the brightness file to make the change happen... this is my general idea, think we'd want to start with just updating the brightness file manually to be sure that works.. someone dropped it in here a few days ago I'll see if Google can help find it
[20:26] <wafflejock> lonewulf85: xev is simple just run it and then hit the key to see the keycode
[20:26] <wafflejock> lonewulf85: xbindkeys is documented here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xbindkeys
[20:26] <Beldar> Ale1, run in the terminal  software-properties-gtk
[20:26] <wafflejock> lonewulf85: might be able to use some built in key mapping stuff too from the system settings for that portion
[20:27] <Ale1> Beldar. ok. it show me thw software sources?
[20:28] <Beldar> Ale1, I have no idea what you actual problem is, your english is broken at best.
[20:28] <Beldar> your*
[20:29] <Ale1> Beldar. i want to install all drivers. that is what i want to do.
[20:30] <Beldar> Ale1, all drivers means nothing. Is the OS running fine?
[20:32] <Beldar> Ale1, usually an install loads the drivers needed. Be specific on any problems.
[20:33] <Ale1> Beldar. no i install ubuntu 13.10 in "nomodeset mode". because  ubuntu dont suport nvidia. i have to install the drivers now
[20:33] <Pici> Beldar: I think they were here the other day looking for the additonal drivers page, I'm not sure where that is hidden in unity nowadays though.
[20:33] <prashant_123456> trying to create ftp server on ubuntu but when i put ftp <IP_ADDRESS> i get the error no address is associated with hostname
[20:34] <wafflejock> prashant_123456: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[20:35] <prashant_123456> wafflejock, yes i can ping
[20:38] <jcorgan> where does Unity store the icon configuration along the left side?
[20:38] <LordHavoc> when using xubuntu for a kiosk purpose, there is significant delay (nearly 2 minutes) before certain USB touchscreens and a USB webcam are initializing, where should I look in upstart to figure out why it is so delayed?
[20:38] <prashant_123456> wafflejock,
[20:39] <jhutchins> Why would the ftp client read an address as a hostname?
[20:39] <LordHavoc> the webcam initializes in just under a minute from boot, but the touchscreen takes longer, both are USB, and I assume upstart is scheduling them badly in some way
[20:39] <bekks> because it doesnt matter wether you use the IP or the hostname resolving to the same IP.
[20:39] <jhutchins> prashant_123456: THat's what's happening, it's trying to get an address as if that were a hostname instead of an address.  Is it possible there's some odd character on the command line?
[20:41] <jcorgan> when you lock an application to the launchbar on the left, where is this fact stored?
[20:41] <jcorgan> or when you add an app
[20:41] <prashant_123456> jhutchins, also i cannot ssh to <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:41] <prashant_123456> jhutchins, odd character ?
[20:41] <wafflejock> prashant_123456: yeah maybe some space or tick or something that got copied in
[20:42] <me1984> Sorry for the doublepost, but I'll just leave this here:
[20:42] <wafflejock> prashant_123456: you can use nmap to see what ports are open
[20:42] <me1984> Hello, I am looking for a push in the right direction to troubleshoot boot issues on a remote system.  The server boots to the point where networking is up and it responds to ping, though SSH does not come up.  Looking at the log files, nothing is being logged at boot, though /var/log/upstart/ has it's timestamp updated to that of the boot attempt each time.  I have no shell access, but have
[20:42] <me1984> full access to the file system.
[20:42] <Spec> jcorgan: add a custom application with a unique name and then grep for it in .config ;)
[20:42] <jcorgan> Spec: nice
[20:42] <Spec> jcorgan: (is only a guess)
[20:42] <jcorgan> better than what i've got now
[20:42] <karab44> hello
[20:43] <karab44> rhytmbox has it's own radio like shoutcast...
[20:43] <karab44> how to use that radio on android?
[20:43] <prashant_123456> wafflejock, all 1000 ports are closed
[20:43] <wafflejock> jcorgan: I believe it stores/pulls these from /usr/share/applications/ and in the .desktop file it says where it shows up... I might be wrong though
[20:43] <so__> i want connect my psp on my computer, but when i do that nothing happens, why?
[20:44] <jhutchins> Is the filesystem mounting read-only?
[20:44] <viro> hey does any one know a noob friendly guide compiling a linux kernel 3.13 . i just need to complie not install
[20:44] <jhutchins> me1984: Read-only filesystem?
[20:45] <jhutchins> prashant_123456: WHat do you mean you can't ssh to that address?
[20:45] <jcorgan> Spec: seems to show up in .config/dconf/user, which is a binary file, some sort of database
[20:45] <prashant_123456> jhutchins, yes i cannot ssh
[20:46] <LordHavoc> viro: although not hugely noob-friendly you may want this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/KernelGitGuide
[20:46] <brian-64> Hi, recently bought an Asus(advertised on Ubuntu home page), but it seems to be missing functionality, command prompt doesnt work, it has trouble with many sites, and some apps from the software center are not recognized as downloaded, should I just have it replaced?
[20:46] <jhutchins> prashant_123456: That doesn't tell us anything.  What happens when you try?  What happens when you use -vvv with ssh?
[20:46] <Spec> jcorgan: i was going to suggest dconf
[20:46] <Spec> jcorgan: is there a dconf-editor?
[20:46] <LordHavoc> viro: also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[20:47] <Spec> jcorgan: https://developer.gnome.org/dconf/unstable/dconf-editor.html
[20:47] <viro> thanks
[20:47] <so__> nobody know how recognize psp on ubuntu?
[20:47] <jcorgan> apt-getting now
[20:47] <wafflejock> so__: what do you expect the PSP to do?
[20:48] <MrJerome> Is there a way to get Ubuntu 12.04lts to recognize my iPhone so I can transfer videos and pictures?
[20:48] <prashant_123456> ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: Connection refused jhutchins
[20:48] <me1984> jhutchins: No, I have full rw access
[20:48] <jcorgan> Spec: desktop/launcher
[20:48] <jhutchins> me1984: A read-only filesystem would explain blank logs.
[20:48] <so__> i want to put music
[20:49] <jcorgan> i'm trying to customize a live cd, and want to have the dynamically created live session user (ubuntu) have a custom set of icons on the launcher
[20:49] <wafflejock> MrJerome: don't have experience with iOS devices but on Android there's an app called AirDroid that acts as a host from the phone so anything on the wifi network can request access then transfer files from a browser, I imagine something similar exists on iOS
[20:49] <LordHavoc> so__: I have no experience with hooking up a psp, but if you can remove the memory card you could use a card reader, no?
[20:49] <me1984> jhutchins: Maybe it's being mounted ro on boot... is there a way I could determine this?
[20:50] <so__> no... the format of memory card psp (vita) is special
[20:50] <jcorgan> kinda tricky because the live user (ubuntu) gets set up at boot time, not in files already on the CD image
[20:50] <LordHavoc> so__: oh it's a vita, okay, I have no vita on hand so I can't even test that
[20:50] <so__> :/
[20:51] <MrJerome> wafflejock: Interesting, I'll give that a look
[20:51] <LordHavoc> so__: I have a psp but never hooked it up to a computer, but I have no psp vita
[20:51] <jcorgan> well, thanks for the pointer to dconf
[20:51] <brian-64> is there an Ubuntu representative I can speak to in one of these channels regarding my issue?
[20:52] <so__> okok thanks
[20:52] <LordHavoc> so__: it is usb yes?
[20:52] <prashant_123456> jhutchins,
[20:52] <LordHavoc> so__: so it may show up on lsusb, and and then you can look up that usb id on the web for more help perhaps
[20:52] <xangua> !ask | brian-64
[20:53] <DJones> brian-64: Everybody here are volunteers, all you need to do is ask your question in the channel and if if anybody can help, they normally jump with an answer, or more questions to try and solve the issue
[20:53] <LordHavoc> so__: you might find lsusb -v | less to be useful, then search for Vita and look up the idVendor and idPRoduct info on the web
[20:53] <Tis|-|> Holaaa
[20:54] <so__> ok thanks u
[20:54] <so__> normaly on windows the psp auto launching a program to read her
[20:55] <so__> but on ubuntu nothing happens...
[20:56] <so__> thanks i go learn ur suggestion maybe i will find something ;)
[20:56] <so__> (sorry for my english)
[21:00] <LordHavoc> so__: a web search reveals that using a PS3 to transfer content to/from the PSP Vita is the only way without using the Windows/Mac software currently
[21:00] <wafflejock> LordHavoc: I imagnie a PS4 would work too :)
[21:00] <marcello> musica
[21:00] <LordHavoc> so__: but there may be programs using a new library called libVitaMTP to access it
[21:01] <LordHavoc> so__: that is as far as I intend to research this matter, good luck
[21:01] <prashant_123456> wafflejock,
[21:01] <Ale1> somebody can give me a commad for installing nvidia driver?
[21:01] <wafflejock> !nvidia | Ale1
[21:01] <Brewster> ok so I've been working on fixing this right here: http://goo.gl/MUzuNc
[21:02] <Brewster> Basically I have a laptop running linux mint and I have that display in the picture that won't display the image in the center of the screen. Is there anything I can do to shift the image to the right so that it does appear in the center?
[21:02] <so__> thanks! i sax the psVita and linux is a f*cking problem
[21:02] <Brewster> didn't get any help in the official channel and mint is basically ubuntu so does anyone have any ideas?
[21:02] <wafflejock> Ale1: also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia best to really use lsb_release -a then search your distro version and what you're trying to do
[21:02] <so__> saw*
[21:04] <so__> and i'm novice so i don't understand all command to success the operation
[21:04] <wafflejock> Brewster: what are you using to display the image?
[21:04] <Brewster> some vizio tv
[21:04] <wafflejock> Brewster: I mean software wise?
[21:04] <LordHavoc> does anyone have an idea what files I should be looking at in /etc/init that initialize webcams and touchscreens? they are initializing up to 2 minutes after booting and I need to make that happen much sooner (this is for a kiosk)
[21:04] <Brewster> oh it's rise vision
[21:05] <Brewster> but even on the desktop it looks like that
[21:05] <Brewster> off to the left
[21:06] <brian_> What should I do if command prompt doesnt work?
[21:06] <wafflejock> Brewster: never heard of it or used it but here's something for it to display and center an image https://code.google.com/p/risegadgets/wiki/SingleImage
[21:06] <wafflejock> brian_: what do you mean the command prompt doesn't work? like the terminal program doesn't open?
[21:06] <Brewster> I would have sworn there was a way to tell the display manager to shift the image
[21:07] <brian_> wafflejock: when I enter a command, the command prompt fades, and nothing else
[21:07] <Guest48259> Anyone know the correct PPA's to use for Nvidia Drivers on Ubuntu 13.10?
[21:08] <Beldar> Guest48259, what makes you think you need a ppa?
[21:08] <wafflejock> brian_: you can maybe try installing a different console app using the GUI software installer
[21:08] <Guest48259> ease of updates?
[21:08] <wafflejock> brian_: alternatively you can use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a tty terminal which might help to see what's going on
[21:08] <Beldar> !ppa | Guest48259
[21:08] <wafflejock> brian_: use Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back to the GUI display
[21:08] <Beldar> Guest48259, In general not advised or supported here.
[21:09] <Guest48259> y
[21:10] <Guest48259> Arent PPA's part of Linux OS Engineering in this case Ubuntu?
[21:10] <wafflejock> brian_: also would help to know if all commands are causing this behavior, does a simple ls work
[21:10] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: they are unsupported software that may destabilize the system, not officially supported by Canonical
[21:10] <Beldar> Guest48259, If the OS is running fine, let it pull drivers from the ubuntu repo.
[21:10] <wafflejock> Guest48259: they are a way for third parties to distribute compiled code
[21:10] <MrJerome> Is there a way to keep unity from hijacking my shortcut keys in other apps?
[21:10] <Guest48259> So no advice ok thanks
[21:10] <brian_> wafflejock: every command I try has the result, even just opening an app this way
[21:11] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: only the advice that they are usually a bad idea unless you have a problem to solve with them
[21:11] <wafflejock> Guest48259: I can wrap up some compiled code and put up a PPA which is why it's not really a safe bet unless you trust the source ^
[21:11] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: a variety of nvidia experimental drivers are contained in the regular package repositories, look for them
[21:11] <Beldar> Guest48259, It's not no advice, but a norm, if you have no choice but a ppa then people will help.
[21:11] <Guest48259> Thats why i'm asking which PPA would be the best choice for Proprietary Nvidia Drivers
[21:12] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: an example where you need a ppa is the xorg-edgers ppa for experimental open source drivers
[21:12] <Beldar> Guest48259, Are you reading the posts, one proprietary is not advised unless through the ubuntu repos and ppa's are not advised.
[21:13] <Brewster> wafflejock: this picture more accurately describes my situation http://goo.gl/z7tk0o
[21:13] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: but nvidia drivers are supplied in the distro, including experimental newer ones
[21:13] <wafflejock> Brewster: ah okay
[21:13] <Guest48259> Im confused
[21:13] <Beldar> Guest48259, Look in software sources additional drivers
[21:13] <Guest48259> Yes I know of that
[21:14] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: let me state it more clearly then: you do not need a ppa to get nvidia proprietary drivers, and several versions are available out-of-the-box, simply use the hardware driver selector for proprietary drivers
[21:14] <CyberGabber> Op mijn Android telefoon staat een verbodsbordje links van de accu-percentage. Wat wil dat zeggen, heb ik iets uitgeschakeld oid?
[21:14] <wafflejock> Brewster: so it does look like your Xorg config is messed up or something, unfortunately it has changed a fair amount recently and I haven't kept up  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config
[21:15] <Beldar> Guest48259, proprietary drivers not run through the ubuntu repos generally wont follow kernel upgrades.
[21:15] <Guest48259> and thats why i'm here because as usual Ubuntu doesnt work out of the box as it should and those Proprietary drivers that should come with ubuntu arent present anymore and i'm unable to get them hence the reason to ask
[21:15] <Guest48259> But if you cant help no probs
[21:15] <DJones> CyberGabber: You're probably best join ##android (it may be #android) Op mijn Android telefoon staat een verbodsbordje links van de accu-percentage. Wat wil dat zeggen, heb  ik iets uitgeschakeld oid?
[21:15] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: your question is showing a misunderstanding
[21:15] <brian_> wafflejock: the command prompt issue is one of several so far, and the computer is less than a week old, would you suggest a replacement?
[21:15] <Guest48259> Could you direct me to an IRC channel where I might be able to get the advice I need?
[21:15] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: this is the place
[21:16] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: you just aren't explaining the situation adequately to help
[21:16] <Beldar> Guest48259, You have not described whether you actually have any problems.
[21:16] <Beldar> or just want the latest drivers
[21:16] <wafflejock> brian_: yeah if you're having a lot of buggy issues and don't have data or can easily back it up doing a clean install might not be a bad option, I'm on Kubuntu 13.10 right now after a clean install and it's been great (been backing things up with rsync which works out well though it takes some time)
[21:16] <Guest48259> My question is simple enough "Advice on the "safest" PPA for Nvidia Drivers for Ubuntu 13.10
[21:16] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: there are packages you can install with apt-get install
[21:17] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: I repeat: no ppa is needed
[21:17] <Guest48259> Then where should I get them if no PPA is needed?
[21:17] <LordHavoc> Guest48259: using the package manager of your choice, they are all just there
[21:17] <Guest48259> Not for me
[21:18] <munz> i had issues with mynvidia on 2 dif machines 13.10
[21:18] <Guest48259> hence the reason i'm asking
[21:18] <munz> i installed ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
[21:18] <Guest48259> Yes i've seen that PPA
