[17:18] <Brandano> otherwise what would stop him from installing his own app to escalate privileges?
[17:19] <Enigma_> hello, i have a problem, ubuntu wont install via wubi, wubi wants to download the iso again and taking it from the iso stored locally, any ideas ?
[17:19] <Enigma_> not taking it i meant
[17:20] <lass> Brandano, basically I don,t want the guy to access to a hardrive can I add a protection like when someone needs to mount it, he needs to enter a password?
[17:20] <lass> the password that I set for it
[17:21] <fishcooker> how to test ssd drive
[17:21] <Brandano> you can encrypt it so that only your profile can mount it
[17:21] <lass> can you hint me what tool/command should I look at?
[17:21] <Brandano> I am fairly happy with truecrypt, but there's inbuilt tools as well, i think?
[17:22] <lass> Brandano, I will look at it, thank you
[17:22] <Brandano> But really, encryption is the only way you can safely restrict access to files from someone with root privileges
[17:23] <Brandano> unless he installs a keylogger
[17:23] <Brandano> then you are back to square one
[17:24] <Rory> Brandano: Boot-time full-disk encryption
[17:24] <Rory> Brandano: However that won't protect against hardware keyloggers
[17:24] <Brandano> but then you can't give access to the other user at root level
[17:24] <Brandano> which is what lass was asking
[17:24] <lass> Brandano, I installed ubuntu via wubi, the harddisk that I would encrypt is the part where windows 7 installed. do you know if windows 7 would have trouble to boot/access any file in case I encrypt that harddrive via truencrypt,
[17:25] <Brandano> yes, it definitely would
[17:25] <Brandano> you'd need to have windows 7 set up to boot from full disk encryption before even installing ubuntu
[17:26] <Brandano> and I am not sure you even can have full disk encryption and the boot manager living along each other
[17:26] <lass> I see, I guess the best is to backup files then delete them
[17:26] <lass> thanks for the help
[17:28] <Brandano> Well, the situation you describe is a bit hard to find a solution for. And even with the machine as it is, an user could boot it from a liveusb and read its entire content, if it's not already encrypted
[17:28] <Brandano> the windows password is a joke of a protection
[17:29] <Brandano> so is PAM, if it's not backed up by encryption at least of the home folder
[17:31] <jhutchins> lass: So your ubuntu installation is actually on NTFS, not on a Linux filesystem?
[17:31] <bjrohan> Hey everyone. Ihad the good fortune of picking up a new A/V receiver over the weekend that is DLNA capable with wifi. I am looking to stream my mp3 from an ubuntu system to the receiver over the network, any suggestions? I tried XBMC, however it doesn't allow me to access all the mp3's from the receiver, nor playlists.
[17:31] <lass> I guess it should be as you say, I just used wubi
[17:31] <Teleport> hi, how can I change midi maps, ex. change a bang button to a toggle one
[17:32] <Teleport> ?
[17:32] <impradeepy> bye @ all
[17:32] <lass> wubi is very nice but it allows to access all the window's file
[17:32] <impradeepy> lass: use seperate partitions
[17:33] <jhutchins> lass: Sudo can be used to restrict which root-privileges a user can use via the name of the command, but you have to trust them not to deliberately try to hack the system.
[17:33] <lass> in that case, I need to install ubuntu again, right?
[17:33] <Brandano> impradeepy: that won't stop the other user from mounting the windows partitions to read them, though
[17:33] <jhutchins> lass: Linux can read and write NTFS partitions.
[17:34] <impradeepy> can later change in privacy settings
[17:34] <jhutchins> lass: NTFS being what Windows uses.
[17:34] <Brandano> if the other user is malicious he will find a way
[17:34] <Brandano> then again, I am paranoid
[17:34] <lass> sure
[17:34] <impradeepy> but windows cant read/write ext4
[17:34] <jhutchins> impradeepy: It can, but it takse some work and some extra software.
[17:34] <Brandano> impradeepy: actually, it can, but baddly, and with 3rd party drivers
[17:34] <hydra7> impradeepy: check pm
[17:35] <impradeepy> i will never suggest you to try 3rd party apps
[17:35] <saliak> I have dhcpd on a linux server running shore wall as my firewall/dhcp server.  I want to be able to access services on my firewall with my WAN dyndns name (rather than having to use IP address in my subnet)  how to I make everything on my local network resolve my dyndns domain to my server local ip rather than trying to come in through my wan IP (through normal DNS resolution)?
[17:35] <lass> I don,t think the guy will work on my laptop will try to hack my files but I just want to leave them open access
[17:35] <Brandano> only reads it as ext2, so no journaling
[17:35] <Teleport> hi, how can I change midi maps, ex. change a bang button to a toggle one
[17:35] <impradeepy> for general windows user its impossible to do that
[17:35] <jhutchins> saliak: Run an internal DNS server that resolves those names to local hosts.
[17:36] <jhutchins> saliak: Or just put them in your /etc/hosts file.
[17:36] <impradeepy> without much knowledge of file systems
[17:36] <Brandano> saliak: you don't. You only NAT those services that must be published to the web, and access the rest either via VPN or SSH tunnel
[17:37] <impradeepy> brandano: can you tell me how will he get root priveldge
[17:37] <impradeepy> ??
[17:37] <impradeepy> as to access ext4
[17:37] <Brandano> impradeepy: for starters lass wants him to be able to install software
[17:37] <jhutchins> lass: While it's not easy to do it within an NTFS system (assuming you stick with wubi), you can encrypt a partition so that it will require a password to mount/access/read the partition.
[17:37] <Brandano> impradeepy: on ubuntu, not on windows
[17:37] <Brandano> the new user is an ubuntu user
[17:38] <jhutchins> lass: I believe it's difficult to do with data already on the partition, the usual setup is to encrypt the blank partition, then copy the data.
[17:38] <saliak> Brandano: hrm.. so my issue is that shore wall won't let me access my service locally when I use my dyndns name that resolves to the WAN IP.
[17:38] <saliak> Brandano: this has always confused me
[17:38] <Brandano> saliak: your router is forwarding the ports to your machine?
[17:38] <impradeepy> brandano:thats two diffrent topics b
[17:38] <lass> jhutchins, I can do that, thanks for the suggestion
[17:39] <lass> I need to boot my laptop to boring windows
[17:39] <lass> thanks for the advices
[17:39] <Brandano> saliak: assuming your machine is answering to queries from LAN, btw
[17:39] <saliak> Brandano: my router is my server.  i'm running asterisk on it as well.  trying to get phones to just use the dns name, rather than my local ip hone they're in my local network
[17:39] <saliak> Brandano: yes
[17:39] <Brandano> so the modem is controlled directly from your server?
[17:40] <jhutchins> saliak: Did you see my earlier response?
[17:40] <wheatthin> saliak, can you connect using the external ip of your dns server?
[17:41] <saliak> jhutchins: there's no hosts file for my phone.
[17:41] <wheatthin> saliak, the only way is to create your own internal dns
[17:41] <icewalker> can surface pro 2 works with ubuntu like the old surface pro model?
[17:42] <Brandano> oh, got it. wheatthin is right
[17:42] <OerHeks> icewalker, i read issues with network adapters, so try your model in live mode
[17:42] <Brandano> because you will need to resolve your ip differently when on the LAN than when on the WAN
[17:43] <wheatthin> I had to do the same on my hackintosh :)
[17:43] <Brandano> essentially you need your dns server to resolve your domain and forward all other requests
[17:43] <icewalker> i want to make sure it works before i buy  surface pro 2
[17:43] <OerHeks> icewalker, one way to find out
[17:43] <wheatthin> icewalker, then you must lookup the different chipsets, I'm sure it's supported
[17:43] <Brandano> Well, I did the same but on OpenWRT, since the router is a SOHO dsl router
[17:44] <icewalker> i find articles on installing ubuntu on surface pro but nothing on surface pro 2
[17:44] <wheatthin> Brandano, not the same I"m afraid. Your openwrt router is only forwarding packets from the router itself. Unless you have bind running, it won't be the same
[17:45] <Brandano> I have dnsmasq running on it
[17:45] <Brandano> and bind
[17:45] <wheatthin> and did you setup bind for internal dns records?
[17:45] <ciccio> irc://irc.oltreirc.net/puffolandia
[17:45] <icewalker> don't want take a chance if no one able to get surface pro2 so i might just have to buy the older model.
[17:46] <rwc2> hi, i think i might have a partial incomplete install or setup for my ati/amd proprietary driver downloaded from ati/amd website.  i'd like to simply revert back to default kubuntu 13.10 driver.  how easy is this
[17:46] <wheatthin> icewalker, go lookup the chipsets man. Most likely it's supported as it doesn't use state of the art graphics. The thing I'd make sure to check up on, is the wifi
[17:46] <icewalker> ok
[17:49] <Brandano> wheatthin: I set it up so that any machine on the lan will both resolve to <machinename> and <machinename>.<localdomain>, except for those services I explicitly forward to some machines, like http that points to a machine alias
[17:49] <Brandano> but using the openwrt interfaces, so I am not comlpetely sure of how the innards do work. The machine registers its hostname via dhcp
[17:50] <Brandano> but I didn't set things up so that I could redirect subdomains to a dmz, I have no need for it yet. It is possible, though
[17:50] <wheatthin> Brandano, and does it resolve with nslookup?
[17:50] <Brandano> from the lan, sure. From the wan, nope. Only www and mail do
[17:51] <Brandano> and the domain, obviously
[17:51] <Brandano> internally the dns acts as a dns server
[17:52] <wheatthin> Brandano, then your external dns must have a wildcard
[17:52] <Brandano> www is registered and handled by a dns provider. mail has its mx record, and that's it
[17:53] <Brandano> to resolve other subdomains I'd have to take over the record and assign it to another registrar. I'll probably do it too
[17:53] <wheatthin> Brandano, yes, but it must be setup to use *.domain.com for example
[17:53] <Brandano> not right now. But it could, and then it would be up to the router to handle it
[17:54] <wheatthin> no, it'll forward the request to your router-to your internal dns server, then it gets resolved.
[17:54] <vooze> Hey, I just rebooted my Ubuntu 13.10 and after my HDMI monitor (connected to laptop) just stopped working (I've screen and the screen is fine, it works with other computers.. also running ubuntu) What could I have done wrong? Its not in the monitor options :/
[17:54] <Brandano> exactly
[17:55] <wheatthin> which is how it works, then you setup individual domains in apache for all the different web subdomains
[17:55] <wheatthin> but it each alias also must be in dns configs
[17:55] <Brandano> if you need them for the web. Or reroute to separate machines
[17:55] <wheatthin> Brandano, negative, I had to do the same thing.
[17:56] <wheatthin> as my router/modem combo doesn't allow me to connect to my external IP
[17:56] <wheatthin> it must be setup to use internal only
[17:56] <Brandano> you can also use namebased virtual hosts and have different domains for the same static ip or ip pool
[17:57] <Brandano> wheatthin: have a look at OpenWRT. For small setups is pretty nifty
[17:57] <rwc2> hi, i think i might have a partial incomplete install or setup for my ati/amd proprietary driver downloaded from ati/amd website.  i'd like to simply revert back to default kubuntu 13.10 driver.  how easy is this
[17:57] <wheatthin> bind is bind basically :)
[17:58] <wheatthin> rwc2, did it fail during installation? if not try sudo aticonfig --initial
[17:58] <Brandano> yep. but having bind, dnsmasq, iptables and the like on an appliance is neat
[17:58] <saliak> wheatthin: ok, that's what I thought.. i was hoping there was a simpler option
[17:58] <wheatthin> Brandano, I hear you, which is why I have osx server :P, but that's not for here, but bind is bind
[17:59] <rwc2> wheatthin, no, it didn't fail, seemed ok.  but kubuntu says its not activated.  i think i'd like to just use the default kubuntu driver, but dont have the installation disk around
[17:59] <saliak> Another question, anyone had luck with a way to repeat multicast packets (from iTunes home sharing primarily) from one adapter to a VPN?
[18:00] <Brandano> rwc2: did you try to activate it?
[18:00] <wheatthin> rwc2, then i'd suggest trying  sudo aticonfig --initial  and have another go
[18:00] <diceboy321> wazzup
[18:00] <diceboy321> xubuntu is best
[18:01] <wheatthin> all of ubuntu is nice, nothing is more or less better, just more or less suitable.
[18:01] <diceboy321> its my opinion
[18:01] <wheatthin> well keep it to yourself :) unless you are helping someone
[18:02] <rwc2> how do i load 'Additional Drivers' dialog as sudo?  no luck as user
[18:02] <wheatthin> rwc2, you do that command in the console/terminal
[18:02] <rwc2> wheatthin, what is the commnad
[18:02] <Brandano> gottago, bye all
[18:02] <wheatthin> rwc2, for the fourth time   sudo aticonfig --initial
[18:03] <wheatthin> rwc2, then   sudo service lightdm restart
[18:03] <maru123> hoola
[18:03] <maru123> Hoola
[18:03] <diceboy321> ubuntu software center is laggy =(
[18:03] <wheatthin> maru123, please no spam.
[18:04] <maru123> Hola wheatthin que?
[18:04] <maru123> hoola
[18:04] <wheatthin> !spanish | maru123
[18:04] <maru123> sorry
[18:05] <maru123> my name is mariana
[18:05] <linuxuz3r> where can i find sources for the ubuntu programs i have installed?
[18:05] <rwc2> i'd really like to just know this right now: is there a simple way to revert to default ubuntu/kubuntu drivers?
[18:05] <bekks> linuxuz3r: In the source repos in your repo lists. To install them, change to a work directory, and run apt-get source packagename
[18:06] <diceboy321> reinstall your ubuntu
[18:06] <rwc2> diceboy321, only way huh
[18:06] <diceboy321> no
[18:06] <rwc2> only easy way?
[18:06] <diceboy321> idk other ways ask som experts
[18:06] <bekks> rwc2: Just uninstall the drivers in question.
[18:06] <wheatthin> rwc2, yes there is. lol
[18:07] <maru123> spanish ?
[18:07] <wheatthin> but, finish initializing, and you might just not want to.
[18:08] <diceboy321> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxlJLz9M8hQ
[18:08] <wheatthin> diceboy321, this isn't the place
[18:08] <diceboy321> lol sorr
[18:09] <diceboy321> my specs are amd e-2 1.7 ghz and 3.6 gb ram but xubuntu and ubuntu are kinda slow
[18:10] <wheatthin> they'll only seem slow if your hard drive's and gpu are not that good
[18:10] <diceboy321> ok thanks
[18:10] <diceboy321> i will try repair boot again
[18:11] <jhutchins> !es
[18:11] <wheatthin> diceboy321, unless you're having booting issues, then it's not gonna help
[18:11] <diceboy321> i dont have booting issues
[18:11] <diceboy321> but its boots slow too
[18:11] <wheatthin> well then you have your answer. What do you have starting? dmesg will show.
[18:11] <jhutchins> diceboy321: Compared to what?
[18:12] <diceboy321> ?
[18:13] <wheatthin> the answer is repair boot will not help. lol You must see which init process is taking up too much time to load during boot.
[18:13] <diceboy321> brb
[18:23] <w0rmie> i've some troubles with network configuration with the distro of ubuntu 8.0.4
[18:24] <TheLordOfTime> w0rmie, 8.04 is past end of life.
[18:24] <TheLordOfTime> !8.04 | w0rmie
[18:24] <TheLordOfTime> i advise that you upgrade if you can.
[18:26] <w0rmie> i've a fatal error too, the grub can't be loaded and needs to be repaired? is the 8.0.4 kernel the major probelm of all these diseases?
[18:26] <thevishy> what is the latest vim for ubuntu
[18:28] <llutz> !info vim | thevishy
[18:28] <thevishy> thanks I will see how to get it installed
[18:30] <nannes> Guys where is the Xresources in Lubuntu?
[18:30] <nannes> checked  my homedir, but there's no trace of it
[18:31] <cowboy> when i load precise from usb, i get this layout in gparted, any help please http://imagebin.org/280223
[18:32] <Beldar> w0rmie, 8.04 is end of life
[18:33] <TheLordOfTime> w0rmie, 8.04 is past end of life, we can't really help you fix it here because of that...
[18:33] <designbybeck> I'm not sure if it is a DNS issue or what I have,but things like IRC chat and a few other online services work, but from time to time my webpages will not open. Like it has a hard dtime finding the DNS or something
[18:34] <designbybeck> Maybe the router , I'm not sure, but is there a way to "flush" the dns? or reset?
[18:34] <designbybeck> refresh?
[18:34] <cowboy> when i load precise from usb, i get this layout in gparted, any help please  - i have no idea how /cdrom got there -- http://imagebin.org/280223
[18:34] <asteve> how can I verify the status of selinux?
[18:35] <Beldar> cowboy, how did you open sda1?
[18:35] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck: are you on satellite?
[18:35] <cowboy> Beldar: what do you mean
[18:35] <designbybeck> no zerowaitstate  I'm hardwired into a router with this box
[18:35] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck: but how is the router connected to the internet?
[18:35] <Beldar> cowboy, from a live cd sda1 would not have been mounted=open how did you mount it?
[18:35] <designbybeck> zerowaitstate,  Ubuntu 13.10 Suddenlink Internet service in Texas
[18:36] <zerowaitstate> ah, k
[18:36] <cowboy> Beldar: insert usb stick in my laptop, switch on, wait until screen apears
[18:36] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck, have you tried switching your dns to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[18:36] <designbybeck> no I haven't, what is that zerowaitstate  ?
[18:36] <zerowaitstate> google dns
[18:36] <designbybeck> ah
[18:36] <Beldar> cowboy, a live environment does not auto open partitions
[18:37] <cowboy> Beldar: not knowing that it does not do it, still it did
[18:37] <designbybeck> it's just funny IRC works
[18:37] <Beldar> cowboy, what is the end goal here?
[18:37] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck, also see if you are getting errors from dig
[18:38] <cowboy> Beldar: install ubuntu
[18:38] <Beldar> cowboy, where?
[18:38] <cowboy> Beldar: on my laptop
[18:38] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck: this sort of sounds like a web proxy issue, but since you are not behind one, maybe dns is it.
[18:38] <designbybeck> zerowaitstate, it's just funny spotify still gives me music and IRC still works and some google searchs will pull up but not let me go to those pages
[18:38] <Beldar> cowboy, In the unallocated space?
[18:38] <cowboy> Beldar: i like in sda1
[18:38] <designbybeck> zerowaitstate,  I normally just press the router reset button and that gets it back
[18:38] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck, you may have the DNS entry for those things cached
[18:38] <nannes> Guys where is the Xresources in Lubuntu?
[18:38] <nannes> checked  my homedir, but there's no trace of it
[18:38] <nannes> Guys where is the Xresources in Lubuntu?
[18:38] <nannes> checked  my homedir, but there's no trace of it
[18:38] <nannes> Guys where is the Xresources in Lubuntu?
[18:38] <FloodBot1> nannes: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:38] <nannes> checked  my homedir, but there's no trace of it
[18:39] <designbybeck> It's a Netgear router zerowaitstate
[18:39] <Beldar> cowboy, I would reboot it and see if it is opened again.
[18:39] <designbybeck> that is why I was wondering if there was a quick way to flush dns without me having to kill the router for everything  zerowaitstate
[18:39] <ijoromanana> io
[18:40] <cowboy> Beldar: did that several times already, sda1 is where my root is, but for some reason, it's called /cdrom
[18:40] <Beldar> cowboy, sda1 has a cdrom mount point can you share why?
[18:41] <cowboy> Beldar: that's what i am asking here
[18:42] <cowboy> Beldar: trying to understand what happened and how to fix
[18:42] <Beldar> cowboy, You have a bit of a odd setup, sda3 is a extended that had to have been made in windows, linux starts at sda4 for extended's, not sure of an answer to be honest.
[18:42] <cowboy> Beldar: thank you for answering
[18:42] <llutz> Beldar: there is no default partition-number for extended-partitions.
[18:43] <Beldar> llutz, I was told differently by jordan_u but sure
[18:44] <llutz> Beldar: most partitioning tools take the 1st free partition-number
[18:44] <llutz> (from 1-4)
[18:44] <pirulinux> quien habla español aqui?
[18:44] <llutz> !es | pirulinux
[18:44] <gassho> system settings crashed in ubuntu 13.10
[18:45] <Beldar> llutz, I will take your word here, however I have never seen linux make one lower than sda4 in 7 years of use.
[18:45] <pirulinux> !es
[18:45] <pirulinux> !es | pirulinux
[18:45] <llutz> Beldar: "sudo parted -l|grep extended" - -> "3      40,0GB  750GB   710GB   extended"
[18:46] <Beldar> llutz, I always use gparted however, but this is just an attempt to convinve me, it gas nothing to do with helping anyone.
[18:47] <Beldar> convince
[18:49] <digitlman> anybody using a picuntu installation on an ARM device?
[18:49] <Beldar> whether my statement is right or wrong has not affect on anyone is all
[18:49] <llutz> Beldar: its just the attempt to prevent you from spreading false general information (no offense)
[18:49] <Beldar> llutz, k
[18:54] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck: hold up, I am reading up on NetworkManager
[18:54] <Beldar> llutz, I just used a usb flash to make an sda1 ext4 and a extended, which came out as sda2, so I thought this was the case, but was told differently by a op here.
[18:54] <Beldar> er both sdb actually
[18:55] <vooze> Hey, I just rebooted my Ubuntu 13.10 and after my HDMI monitor (connected to laptop) just stopped working (I've screen and the screen is fine, it works with other computers.. also running ubuntu) What could I have done wrong? Its not in the monitor options :/
[18:56] <gassho> how do i add a user account?  i got the system settings up but clicking on the plus labeled button fails to do anything; however, i can change my password and language
[18:57] <llutz> gassho: sudo adduser 'username'
[18:59] <CookieM> or look for "lock" sign in the window to unlock its settings and add a new user
[18:59] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck: on 13.10, dnsmasq has its cache-size set to zero, so it never caches
[19:00] <zerowaitstate> designbybeck: dnsmasq is a dns resolver that listens on <IP_ADDRESS>, which is what your /etc/resolv.conf is pointed to, if you noticed
[19:01] <zerowaitstate> it proxies the dns and dhcp requests, using the dns of whatever adapter is up at the time
[19:01] <jamming> guys what Linux distro does anyone recommend tto install on macbook air 2013??
[19:01] <zerowaitstate> however, if you use dig @<IP_ADDRESS>, it should bypass your local machine resolver
[19:02] <zerowaitstate> if you really think the local resolver is the issue
[19:11] <kijutsu> Help -- i just upgraded from 13.04 to 13.10, and now when i attempt to start ircd-hybrid i get "ircd-hybrid chown: changing ownership of '/var/run/ircd': operation not permitted
[19:13] <chutney> kijutsu, are you running that command as "su ..."?
[19:14] <kijutsu> chutney: no i'm not -- its supposed to be running as a service
[19:14] <kijutsu> but when i do run it with sudo, it runs but it won't allow connections
[19:14] <kijutsu> in fact, i'm pretty sure it's not even running cause when invoked as a root user, it dies automatically as 'do not run as root'
[19:15] <Leco> Hi
[19:16] <chutney> kijutsu, normally I put services in my inetd.conf file
[19:17] <Leco> I'm installing Ubuntu right now, and it's been on the "Installation" window for a while, any tips ?
[19:17] <chutney> go out for lunch?
[19:18] <fryck> Hi
[19:19] <fryck> I want all *.dev local domain target to my home raspberry pi server, how can i do this ? (sorry for my bad english)
[19:20] <fryck> mywebsite.dev (on my mobile for example) -> raspberry server -> nginx -> /www/mywebsite
[19:21] <jhutchins> fryck: Set up a DNS server or just use your hosts files.
[19:22] <fryck> i'm totaly noob on how setup DNS server
[19:22] <fryck> have you got resources for dummys ? :)
[19:23] <kijutsu> Help -- i just upgraded from 13.04 to 13.10, and now when i attempt to start ircd-hybrid i get "ircd-hybrid chown: changing ownership of '/var/run/ircd': operation not permitted
[19:25] <jhutchins> fryck: There are howtos at http://tldp.org, but it's easier to just edit your hosts files.
[19:27] <jhutchins> !tell fryck about dns
[19:28] <fryck> thanks ;)
[19:31] <Hawkerz> hey, quick point of interest -- I seem to have the QT messaging framework installed and running at boot...I think this was a carryover from 12.04 or earlier -- this actually important for anything anymore?
[19:32] <Teleport> anyone here knows about nanoKONTROL?
[19:35] <sagotsky> Hi there.  My external mouse and keyboard stopped working.  They do fine in the bios, but not in a virtual console or in xorg.  Any ideas?  I've posted more details here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/385091/usb-mouse-and-keyboard-suddenly-stopped-working-in-13-10
[19:38] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, you're on a laptop?
[19:38] <sagotsky> yep
[19:39] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, is your laptop currently plugged into the wall? could be power saving config
[19:39] <sagotsky> this is a sudden change.  it worked a couple weeks ago and then just stopped.
[19:39] <sagotsky> doesn't work plugged in to ac, unplugged, or in a dock
[19:39] <Hawkerz> some power management utilities nuke usb when not plugged in
[19:39] <Hawkerz> hrm...need more info then
[19:39] <Hawkerz> pastebin the relevant logs
[19:40] <sagotsky> anything in particular?  I included lsusb and hardinfo in the link above
[19:40] <Hawkerz> everything really, dmesg, Xorg.0.log, ~/.xsession-errors
[19:41] <sagotsky> can do
[19:41] <Hawkerz> !pastebin | sagotsky
[19:41] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, also lspci -vvnn
[19:41] <sagotsky> dmesg http://pastebin.com/tqxz0PV8
[19:42] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, if you have a working keyboard you should use pastebinit
[19:42] <Hawkerz> !pastebinit
[19:42] <sagotsky> not familiar with that one
[19:42] <Hawkerz> command line tool that lets you take the output of terminal commands and send it directly to a pastebin
[19:43] <sagotsky> cool
[19:43] <gassho> please put guidance about using longer passphrases with the rest of the tactics of selecting a good password, thanks
[19:43] <sagotsky> that'll be faster than xsel
[19:43] <PDilyard> Startup Disk Creator keeps failing to create a bootable USB. It gets to the point where it goes to install the EFI bootloader, but then crashes
[19:43] <urielvigilant> Lubuntu 13.10 software center dont show information about software when we click button.
[19:43] <Jordan_U> gassho: Who are you speaking to?
[19:44] <gassho> the developers
[19:44] <urielvigilant> Lubuntu 13.10 dont start in a ACer 3003 wlmi with 1 GB ram .
[19:45] <urielvigilant> Ubuntu 13.10 dont start in a Acer 3003 wlmi with 1 GB Ram also.
[19:45] <urielvigilant> What could be failling ?
[19:46] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, here's xorg (although I'm not getting keyboard on consle either, so I don't think it's isolated to x) http://pastebin.com/tqxz0PV8
[19:46] <BluesKaj> do you see the grub menu , urielvigilant ?
[19:46] <digitlman> anybody using a picuntu installation on an ARM device?
[19:47] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, cat <(dmesg) <(cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log) <(cat ~/.xsession-errors) <(lspci -vvnn) | pastebinit -b paste.ubuntu.com
[19:47] <sagotsky> xsession-errors http://pastebin.com/tqxz0PV8
[19:47] <Hawkerz> that should get it all in one go
[19:47] <sagotsky> awesome, ty
[19:48] <sagotsky> http://pastebin.com/tqxz0PV8
[19:48] <Hawkerz> So, anyone know whether the qt messaging framework is still used at all?
[19:48] <sagotsky> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6510915/
[19:48] <sagotsky> there we go
[19:49] <bsdbandit> im setting up apache ssl on ubuntu ive generated the cert where do  i put the cert file in order to get ssl working
[19:49] <bsdbandit> ?
[19:50] <urielvigilant> BluesKaj : yes it appear the menu where we can choose to try Lubuntu then i say to try  and the screen start to switch off  and on , and it can start. On another hand trying Ubuntu , we can reach to the part we say to try Ubuntu. Iam using a usb persistent that work on my acer 5204 wlmi very well and on many desktops i tryed before
[19:50] <urielvigilant> I a afraid to try a full install if i dont have sure it will work on it.
[19:50] <urielvigilant> IS a friend of mine laptop.
[19:52] <urielvigilant> where said can please read cant . typing mistake
[19:52] <BluesKaj> urielvigilant. if the usb doesn't work try a dvd
[19:52] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, did I miss any logs?
[19:53] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, no, you have a problem with the gnome power manager
[19:53] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, which release are you using?
[19:53] <sagotsky> 13.10
[19:53] <Hawkerz> when did you upgrade?
[19:53] <sagotsky> about a week after it came out
[19:53] <urielvigilant> BluesKaj do you think it could be about trying in Usb ? so that mean a full instal could work even with usb ?
[19:54] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, which window manager/desktop env do you use?
[19:54] <sagotsky> xmonad
[19:55] <parapan> hi fellows > networking problem ...cannot access <IP_ADDRESS> the router config page via LAN cable; it's working on the wireless but not within the LAN . . ..
[19:56] <BluesKaj> urielvigilant. sometimes usb installs have problems that cd or dvds don't have ...usbs are buggier
[19:57] <urielvigilant> BluesKAj: that means usb could work very well on my laptop or on another desktop , but could fail on another laptop ?
[19:57] <urielvigilant> iam talking about the same usb , . .
[19:58] <marko-_-> hello. How would i say mail from my gmail account from terminal? I followed 3 tutorials and none work
[19:58] <marko-_-> s/say/mail
[19:59] <ResQue> how can i install hwinfo? i tried apt-get install hwinfo but it says no such package
[19:59] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, are you trying to run xmonad in a gnome session?
[20:00] <sagotsky> no, I have a separate sessoin file somewhere that runs my .xsession
[20:00] <parapan> hi fellows > networking problem ...cannot access <IP_ADDRESS> the router config page via LAN cable; it's working on the wireless but not within the LAN . . ..
[20:00] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, ok, it seems like it's a gtk2 bug from looking at it... do you have the multiarch libs for gtk2 installed?
[20:01] <sagotsky> on this machine I can't remember
[20:02] <sagotsky> I have libgtk2.0-0:i386
[20:02] <sagotsky> all my other installed gtk packages either don't specify an arch or are amd64
[20:03] <sagotsky> nom
[20:03] <sagotsky> doh
[20:03] <stijndg> ResQue, i cannot install that one either but i use Sysinfo wich works fine as well
[20:04] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, is your laptop a nvidia optimus laptop?
[20:04] <glitsj16> ResQue: hwinfo is no longer in the 13.10 repos, i assume you're running that version of ubuntu?
[20:04] <ResQue> stijndg: thanks i will try that, it seems its been removed. whats the best way to check framebuffer info so i can config grub?
[20:05] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, not positive.  I have a dell e6420.  Some of them have optimus, but I can't tell if it's universal.  (It's owned by work so I haven't paid its hardware too much attention)
[20:06] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, you have an optimus configuration, it's the same machine I'm on and you have the same proprietary video card
[20:06] <Hawkerz> drivers, rather
[20:06] <sagotsky> ah, cool
[20:06] <glitsj16> ResQue: either install hwinfo (and libhal1 + libhd16 dependencies) from raring --> via packages.ubuntu.com .. or get to a grub prompt at boot and use the vbeinfo command to get framebuffer availability
[20:07] <sagotsky> I'm using standard nvidia drivers from apt.  I didn't do any of the optimus specific stuff
[20:07] <ResQue> glitsj16: i will use vbeinfo thanks
[20:07] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, (npviewer.bin:3874): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine",
[20:08] <glitsj16> ResQue: many guides still refer to hwinfgo .. too bad it's no longer there, but vbeinfo still gives you the same info, yw
[20:08] <Hawkerz> ^ This is known to cause errors with gtk when you are not using gnome, having gtk searching for a theme where it can't locate one seems to cause some weird segfault
[20:08] <ResQue> glitsj16: thanks for the headsup
[20:08] <parapan> hi fellows > networking problem ...cannot access <IP_ADDRESS> the router config page via LAN cable; it's working on the wireless but not within the LAN . . ..
[20:09] <sagotsky> And you think that'll affect my mouse and keyboard?
[20:09] <Ilmen> Hello
[20:09] <Hawkerz> probably, since it's segfaulting the gnome power management daemon (are you manually killing gnome in your xsession file?)
[20:10] <sagotsky> not killing it, but not starting it up either
[20:10] <sagotsky> what starts the power management daemon?  gnome-settings-daemon?
[20:13] <Ilmen> I just installed Ubuntu 13.10 on a UEFI computer with pre-installed Windows 8; apparently Ubuntu has been installed in Legacy mode, and Win8 is no longer bootable, so I downloaded boot-repair. It's asking me "The boot of your PC is in Legacy mode. You may want to retry after changing it to EFI mode. Do you want to continue?"
[20:13] <Ilmen> Do you think I can safely continue?
[20:13] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, [   28.020410] init: gdm main process (1248) killed by TERM signal
[20:14] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, that was probably me restarting X without waiting for the whole system to restart
[20:14] <sagotsky> It's not doing that automatically as far as I'm aware
[20:15] <sagotsky> I wanted to see if some settings changes let me type in the login manager or not
[20:15] <Hawkerz> ok, and you are using usb keyboard an mouse? or trying to I guess?
[20:16] <sagotsky> correct
[20:17] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, do your USB ports work when you plug other stuff into them?
[20:17] <nsql> I created an additional account and did 'chmod 750 $HOME' but I can still see the home directory on the other account, how can I prevent it?
[20:18] <Badc0de> hi
[20:18] <Badc0de> yes, my mpa player work,im using raring
[20:18] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, found a usb thumbdrive that worked.  It didn't automount but I don't know if that's normal.
[20:19] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, also, if you have your paste link still, you have an error in a script which is causing problems somewhere
[20:19] <Hawkerz> in your screenshot-imgur script
[20:19] <Agd_Scorp> my balls literally just exploded
[20:20] <Badc0de> I installed metasploit on raring, missingGem error,help!! please
[20:20] <Agd_Scorp> Badc0de, please go to #metasploit.
[20:20] <Agd_Scorp> this is not the channel for this, this is a support channel for ubuntu.
[20:20] <sagotsky> good to know.  I think I wasn't logged in at the time and it didn't know what to do.
[20:21] <llutz> nsql: you should see the home-dir but not the contents with 750
[20:22] <Badc0de> thanx Agd_Scorp
[20:23] <nsql>  llutz, if I do ls /home/user, I can see all my files. I don,t know what I did wrong. what I did is to run 'chmod 750 $HOME' on the terminal,
[20:23] <nsql> llutz, ls -al shows 'drwxr-x---' for the other accounts home directory
[20:23] <llutz> nsql: you are "user"? sure you can see your own home then
[20:24] <jhutchins> nsql: In order for you to see your own home directory, you need to be able to see the directories in /home/.  You should not be able to read the other users's directory or it's subdirectories.
[20:25] <llutz> nsql: 'drwxr-x---' is 750. what are you trying to achieve?
[20:25] <na36heno>  /exit
[20:25] <nsql> llutz, I log in with the other user account and can still see other account,s home directory. do I need to reboot my pc?
[20:25] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, which version of ubuntu is your system built on? lubuntu?
[20:25] <llutz> nsql: you see the home-dirs but not the contents of other users home-dirs, right?
[20:25] <seanz> Greetings, all. Anyone have any links to creating an Ubuntu packaging server?
[20:25] <sagotsky> striaght up ubuntu.  I might have used server as the install media, but I can't remember.
[20:25] <jhutchins> nsql: This is not Windows, the only reason to reboot is to either install a new kernel or check the root filesystem.
[20:26] <jjavaholic> how might I diagnose why I can't send files to bluetooth devices?
[20:28] <nsql> lltuzö jhutchins: let me try to explain it again, maybe I use wrong terminology. I have a user, say user1 and created a new user account called user2. on user1's command prompt I run 'chmod 750 $HOME' then logout and log in to user2. on user2's command prompt, when I run 'ls /home/user1' I can see the all directories, like /home/user1/Desktop and sub folders
[20:29] <nsql> how can I prevent user2 to see any file, subdirectories under /home/user1 ?
[20:29] <llutz> nsql: you shouldn't see the contents. what group owns /home/user1? and is user2 member of that group?
[20:30] <Kartagis> nsql: chmod 700 /home/user1
[20:30] <nsql> they are both administrative accounts
[20:30] <nsql> I will try 700 now
[20:31] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, can you show me your xmonad/xsession configs?
[20:31] <llutz> nsql: "ls -ld /home/user1   && id user2"
[20:31] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, just cat them over to pastebin again
[20:31] <jhutchins> nsql: What does 'administrator account' mean in this context?
[20:31] <sagotsky> Can do.
[20:32] <knight221> Hello, Can someone recommand me on good code revision control for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS which have aslo windows clients?
[20:33] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6511103/ that's xmonad, then .xsession, then ls from my .xsession.d.
[20:33] <sagotsky> anything interesting in .xsession.d can be found in https://github.com/sagotsky/.dotfiles/tree/master/scripts
[20:34] <sagotsky> I am deliberately killing notification-daemon and notify-osd.  Not sure if that could be related to the power manager segfaulting?
[20:34] <rypervenche> knight221: git
[20:34] <sagotsky> (I've been doing that for quite a while, so I don't think that's it, but it couldn't hurt to mention)
[20:34] <renebarbosa> hey folks
[20:35] <renebarbosa> someone here already watched it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5buFbuvWbk ?
[20:35] <renebarbosa> ubuntu is being used in an awesome robotics project
[20:35] <renebarbosa> :)
[20:35] <rypervenche> knight221: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorial
[20:35] <k1l> renebarbosa: that topic suits better into the offtopic channel: #ubuntu-offtopic we stick to technical support issues in here :)
[20:36] <renebarbosa> k1l, okay
[20:36] <jhutchins> nsql: The "execute" flag on a directory determines whether the directory listing can be read.  If a user is a member of a group that has x permissions then that user can list the contents.
[20:37] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, https://gist.github.com/minhajuddin/2156485 <- this is an example I found (I don't really use xmonad, but I looked around a bit)
[20:37] <jhutchins> nsql: Since there is no such thing as an "administrative account" in *nix, I'm presuming that you mean that they are in a group that has some special privileges.
[20:37] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, it looks like you need to manually ensure that gnome-keyring-daemon, gnome-settings-daemon, and gnome-power-manager are all running (see the first file on that page)
[20:38] <knight221> Does someone know if Ubuntu 10.04 LTS have a package for Perfoce server (https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/perforce-version-management/)? if not does it possible to install it from the 12.04-13.10 package?
[20:39] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, happy to give it a try.  I don't have a gnome-power-manager bin though.  Just reinstalled from apt.
[20:40] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, the long and short of it though, is that power management, GSD, and gtk are not getting loaded
[20:40] <Hawkerz> well, I'm not really sure if there is an equivalent or whatever
[20:41] <sagotsky> That definitely gives me some stuff to try.  I'll see if I can figure out what replaces gnome-power-manager.  No change just running gnome-settings-daemon.
[20:41] <kingplusplus> please how do know which partition my os is installed /dev/sb1 or 2
[20:41] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, that was some fantastic support even if we didn't get to the bottom of it today.  I really appreciate it.
[20:43] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, sure thing, there are a lot of random things being reported, but i mostly think it's power management
[20:43] <Hawkerz> that was my first instinct
[20:43] <Hawkerz> and googling seems to reaffirm it a bit anyway
[20:43] <sagotsky> Cool
[20:44] <sagotsky> That's dfeinitely something I can keep googling.  I don't often use this machine as a laptop so I haven't paid as much attention to power services as I should.
[20:45] <Hawkerz> meh, power management sucks....I only ever get it to break things
[20:45] <sagotsky> Heh
[20:45] <kingplusplus> hello how can i delete stuff in my root?
[20:46] <goose_> quit
[20:46] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, the gist of what I saw online was that it could be any number of things from power management to graphics drivers to missing gtk2 libraries
[20:47] <Hawkerz> evidently, 13.10 still has several known issues...have you used Mir at all?
[20:47] <sagotsky> Interesting.  I was assuming it was something lower level than gtk2 since it was failing before I even got to X.
[20:47] <sagotsky> Haven't tried it
[20:47] <Hawkerz> oh, so you are trying to move away from gdm to x?
[20:48] <sagotsky> I don't mind the login manager, I was just trying to rule out whether it was an xorg config problem
[20:48] <mikodo> kingplusplus, in terminal <df -h>
[20:48] <sagotsky> Not being able to type in ctrl-alt-f1 led me to believe the problem was happening outside of x
[20:48] <Hawkerz> well, if you switched login managers that could easily be the cause
[20:48] <sagotsky> haven't recently
[20:49] <sagotsky> just restarted it a few times for debugging
[20:49] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, but you were using GDM at some point and now you are not?
[20:49] <sagotsky> I'm on lightdm right now
[20:49] <Hawkerz> oh
[20:49] <sagotsky> I think that's the default
[20:49] <sagotsky> Not something I have strong opinions about so I don't pay it much attention
[20:49] <Hawkerz> yes, it is...that's the important thing here
[20:50] <sagotsky> ok
[20:51] <Hawkerz> the login manager, if misconfigured, can break everything....
[20:51] <sagotsky> it looks like I tried to tell it to autologin at some point
[20:51] <sagotsky> my name is in there
[20:51] <Hawkerz> it's only the USB keyboard that doesn't work, right? you can still ctrl+alt+f1 from the native keyboard?
[20:51] <sagotsky> but I don't think that's ever worked
[20:51] <sagotsky> correct
[20:51] <FloodBot1> sagotsky: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:52] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, the native keyboard works fine.  I haven't found anything it does wrong.  gnome-settings-daemon sometimes eats my xmodmap settings, but that's another matter.
[20:54] <human_like> got the disk?
[20:56] <sh0t> hi guys. I am trying to set up burpe suite to analyze som https traffic.vThe problem is that i cannot start it on the port 443 because it says the port is used already by some other serivece.  Do you want to activate [Backup and rename Windows EFI files]?"; what does this mean?
[20:58] <dissenter> his name was Ubuntu
[20:58] <dissenter> he was a black man black as the night
[20:59] <niko> dissenter: if you continues to troll ...
[20:59] <llutz> !ot | dissenter
[21:00] <sh0t> thanks llutz
[21:01] <hatemachine1> hi all
[21:01] <hatemachine1> hey, does anyone know if there is a stable version of ubuntu for MAC?
[21:02] <Pricey> !mac
[21:02] <geirha> sh0t: or sudo fuser -v 443/tcp
[21:02] <sh0t> thanks geirha
[21:03] <hatemachine1> thanks @pricey
[21:03] <hatemachine1> !mac
[21:06] <sh0t> mmm anyway if i run lsof or also fuser i don't findanything  on the port 443
[21:06] <llormortis> *troll* https://fixubuntu.com/
[21:06] <sh0t> but still burp says
[21:06] <sh0t> to check whether some other serivce
[21:06] <sh0t> is on that port
[21:07] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, let me know if you have any luck...also dpkg -l | grep multiarch -- make sure you have the multiarch libs installed
[21:11] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, will do.  TY again for all your t ime.  I have some stuff t o finish up today so it may not be till tomorrow till I can try everything

[21:12] <lionprise> I am trying to install ubuntu Gnome, but it immediatly drops to busybox
[21:13] <lionprise> the usb drive works on my laptop with UEFI, but not on my desktop with simple bios
[21:15] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, as a final point, I don't actually think it's a problem with GTK, but I do think it is a problem with power management...still, hard to say
[21:16] <sagotsky> I think I agree.  I've had no noticeable errors from gtk - errors aside, everything runs smoothly and looks purty.  But there's a ton of power management stuff that doesn't work.  Like rebooting.
[21:17] <juboba> how can I upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04 or 13.10? I'm running "update-manager -d" and it is offering 14.04.
[21:17] <Sian> apt-get install ffmpeg asks me to install nvidia drivers when I do not own a nvidia card(obviously isntalling them means crashing at reboot), what can I do?some of the packages have xedgers in the name that most likely come from the zord-edgers ppa, but I already purged it, I even re-added it to purge it again but those packages keep appearing
[21:18] <k1l> jubba: you need to update to 12.10 first.
[21:18] <k1l> jubba: set the release prompt to regular (from LTS). then it should say 12.10 for "update-manager"
[21:18] <aebonyne> How do I get my computer to not shutdown when pressing the power button (I'd like it to either ask or sleep/hibernate)? Computer is a Surface Pro if it matters. I've disabled the settings to shutdown on power button press in the Gnome and XFCE power managers as well as in /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh, which is as far as Googling the topic got me.
[21:18] <juboba> k1l, how should I proceed?
[21:19] <aebonyne> Sian: Installing drivers for hardware you don't have shouldn't cause problems...
[21:19] <juboba> k1l, how do I change the release prompt?
[21:19] <k1l> juboba: go to the systemsettings and then to updates and sources. then set the updates to regulear (3rd tab iirc)
[21:19] <shanahan> are there any good alternatives to 'jockey-gtk'?  or the additional drivers window?  mine's a bit glitchy.
[21:19] <Sian> aebonyne, but 1, it does, as it crashes my system at reboot. and 2, I have a 80GB hdd, I don't want to install more than necesary
[21:20] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[21:21] <shanahan> woha
[21:21] <Sian> not only that, but the other packages of the ppa aren't shown by my system, so nvidia drivers seem to be the only packages from there that are actually showing. NO idea why
[21:21] <aebonyne> Sian: Saving space is a good reason. In general, you can avoid installing packages by postfixing their name with a minus sign in the apt-get install command: apt-get install ffmpeg nvidia-glx-
[21:21] <juboba> k1l, would you recommend to upgrade to regular from LTS (this is my home computer, no server)
[21:22] <aebonyne> Sian: If the package doesn't like that idea, it will show dependency errors.
[21:22] <clynamen> I'm supposed to install watchdog kernel module or they are often already in the kernel ?
[21:23] <Sian> aebonyne, it won't let me
[21:23] <k1l> juboba: the non-lts are stable too.
[21:23] <Sian> q
[21:24] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, I think I know the problem
[21:24] <sagotsky> Oh?
[21:24] <juboba> k1l, ok so I have to 12.10 -> 13.04 -> 13.10 to get there?
[21:24] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, I think you are encountering an error with ureadahead (if /var or /run are on their own partitions)
[21:25] <Hawkerz> this thread seems to have some useful info on that: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1423305
[21:25] <Eagleman> Which ports need to be open to be able to connect to a NFS server?
[21:25] <aebonyne> Sian: Odd. If you removed the repository and have updated since then... maybe try a clean so previously downloaded packages are gone, too? Really, I'm out of ideas.
[21:26] <sagotsky> that's definitely a new one for me
[21:26] <aebonyne> Sian: That's apt-get clean, deleted all downloaded packages. Saves space and forces apt to redownload packages, perhaps in your case from the right repository.
[21:26] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, check the output of mount
[21:26] <Sian> aebonyne, autoclean says there are 0 bytes to be freed
[21:27] <Sian> aebonyne, it just ocurred to me, maybe is another ppa using zorg edgers packages?
[21:28] <Eagleman> Which ports need to be open to be able to connect to a NFS server?
[21:28] <aebonyne> clean deletes more stuff than autoclean, although it shouldn't actually affect whether stuff works.
[21:28] <sagotsky> Hawkerz, here's mount http://paste.ubuntu.com/6511323/
[21:29] <aebonyne> Possible, I was trying to see if there's a way to check what repo an archive comes from, but apt-cache show doesn't tell you.
[21:30] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, looks like you're suffering from a problem with ureadahead, which runs during boot to speed up the boot process (but when /var is mounted on its own partition, apparently this breaks in some circumstances)
[21:31] <sagotsky> Seems likely.  How exactly did you find that?  I would have reinstalled long before reaching that point.
[21:32] <aebonyne> Sian: Ah, apt-cache showpkg ffmpeg will tell you where it's getting the ffmpeg package from.
[21:33] <SerGiles> hello, I have an issue with unity side bar, that is to say I cant scroll it with my mouse wheel in 13.10 like I could in 12.04. Is there a fix for this?
[21:36] <Sian> aebonyne, this is what I get http://paste.ubuntu.com/6511357/, I am either looking at the wrong place or it's using official ubuntu repo
[21:38] <odium> anyone familiar with the ubuntu 11.10 bug that arbritrarily ruins luks partitions?
[21:38] <bekks> odium: 11.10 is out of support already.
[21:38] <juboba> k1l, ok so I have to 12.10 -> 13.04 -> 13.10 to get there?
[21:38] <Beldar> odium, Is this relevant in a supported release?
[21:38] <odium> oh, I am running 13.10
[21:39] <odium> but still lost my data
[21:39] <odium> I stopped mounting this entier drive while I worked on a new ssd
[21:39] <aebonyne> Sian: The top option is a PPA.
[21:39] <Beldar> odium, Are you sure it was not user error, are you linking these loosely is the question?
[21:39] <odium> and when I went back to mount it again, using time tested methods it is no longer a valid luks partition
[21:39] <odium> I am not 100%
[21:40] <odium> but it's either this that or the nsa
[21:40] <odium> so I backed up the 1TB drive
[21:40] <odium> but I am at a loss for recovering this one.
[21:40] <Beldar> odium, Or user error be being backed up is the best answer in ythe end.
[21:40] <aebonyne> Sian: "ppa.launchpad.net_rebuntu16_pcsx-reloaded-svn". The ffmpeg from the PPA is apparently depending on packages you don't want?
[21:41] <odium> too bad the disk was full.
[21:41] <aebonyne> ... probably indirectly because nothing there mentions nvidia.
[21:41] <Beldar> odium, You can clone anything including encrypted partitions as long as you have the key file to get back in.
[21:41] <odium> If I have other volumes with identical headers can I try to back up one of them and then apply their header to the disabled volume?
[21:41] <Sian> aebonyne, the packages I don't want are the nvidia drivers. Well i'll have to use the normal pscx to aovid this
[21:42] <Sian> thanks
[21:42] <odium> Beldar, I have the key file and know the 20 digit password by heart
[21:42] <aebonyne> Sian: Glad I was able to be somewhat helpful. gtg, bye
[21:42] <odium> but I've googled and googled for an instructional.
[21:42] <Hawkerz> sagotsky, I saw a weird error in one of your logs, right around the same place your usb stuff disconnected
[21:42] <Beldar> odium, but do you have a clone/copy if it?
[21:42] <odium> I used dd to make an image
[21:43] <odium> what's a clone?
[21:43] <Hawkerz> or connected, rather
[21:43] <Beldar> odium, clone is a standard term it means what it means.
[21:43] <odium> i copied just the partition to one image and the entire disk to another.
[21:44] <Beldar> odium, All with dd?
[21:44] <odium> yes
[21:45] <odium> I want my movies back. :(
[21:45] <Beldar> odium, Not sure to be honest any copying can have mistakes, dd is problematic if it does not save the original but just transfers it, if there is a mistake.
[21:45] <nwzqqwr> rapbrain
[21:46] <Beldar> odium, Best circumstances are a copy that can be confirmed to be good before the loss of the original.
[21:47] <odium> Well, I understand the risk..
[21:47] <odium> it's just 1TB of movies.
[21:47] <kevin> what risk is that?
[21:47] <odium> next time I will attempt to backup my stuff.
[21:48] <odium> at the time, I didn't have enough space to backup a TB
[21:48] <Beldar> Guest35688, What is your question referencing?
[21:48] <Jordan_U> odium: Backing up the LUKS header is also usually a good idea.
[21:48] <Guest35688> Guest35688 works just fine for me
[21:48] <nwzqqwr> trying windowsXP
[21:48] <odium> Jordan_U there is a backup
[21:49] <odium> it's somewhere in /etc/ I think
[21:49] <nwzqqwr> need audio software
[21:49] <odium> just can't locate it again.

[21:50] <Jordan_U> odium: How did you backup the LUKS header?
[21:50] <Beldar> and don't just randomly comment with knowledge of context Guest35688
[21:50] <odium> uhh, I can't answer that.
[21:50] <nwzqqwr> sh has to be the same version

[21:51] <odium> oh, that's not a header after all.

[21:52] <SkyCaptain> Hey chan, I like the way Nautilus automatically mounts my external hard drives when I click on them. This is the only feature that still requires me to start up X on my server. Is there any way to maintain this same functionality without starting X and Nautilus?

[21:52] <odium> sorry, Jordan_U that's just lvm data

[22:04] <Ilmen> Hello
[22:06] <Dax_> Can anyone help me? I'm trying to connect my macbook to 12.04 nic to nic via crossover cable... is there any package or setting I should change/get
[22:06] <Ilmen> I successfully installed Ubuntu 13.10 and turned it into EFI;  however now I cannot boot my Windows 8 anymore, GRUB gives me the error "can't find command 'drivemap'. Invalid EFI file path."
[22:07] <Ilmen> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6511428/
[22:08] <bekks> Ilmen: Windows was installed using efi, too?
[22:09] <Ilmen> Moreover, when I try booting directly my HDD from the bios, I get the GRUB error "file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found. Entering rescue mode..."
[22:09] <Ilmen> It was a pre-insalled UEFI Windows 8
[22:09] <grayscale> 14.04 is looking good :)
[22:09] <Ilmen> but I made a full backup before trying installing ubuntu
[22:11] <Ilmen> Curiously I now have two "Windows Boot Manager" and two "Ubuntu" in my bios menu, weird
[22:11] <Ilmen> looks like GRUB messed up something in my EFI partition
[22:12] <hitsujiTMO> ilmen: everytime grub-install is run it can potentially add an extra item
[22:13] <hitsujiTMO> Ilmen: that's nothing to do with the efi sys partition, but the efi boot manager. you can see the entries/modify them with: efibootmgr
[22:13] <Ilmen> I'll try that, thanks
[22:15] <Ilmen> I typed efibootmgr in the terminal but nothing seems to happen
[22:15] <hitsujiTMO> Ilmen: try it with sudo
[22:16] <Ilmen> yay, worked
[22:16] <hs366> how much takes time usually to fix a bug ?
[22:16] <hs366> i have problem with chrome in 13.10
[22:17] <hitsujiTMO> Ilmen: you can delete an entry with: sudo efibootmgr -Bb XXXX                  where XXXX is the 4 digit id
[22:18] <Ilmen> hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6511532/
[22:18] <hitsujiTMO> hs366: if its a bug in chrome then there's no knowing how long it could be. simple showstopping bugs can takes weeks with google
[22:19] <hs366> hitsujiTMO, actually i have problem with chrome global menu
[22:19] <Ilmen> (Note: I have only two actual OS, Win8 and Ubuntu)
[22:19] <hs366> hitsujiTMO, i found it reported but still waiting for any update or something
[22:21] <hitsujiTMO> Ilmen: 0003 and 0004 are the dupes alright. 6 7 and 8 are generated by the bios. not sure what 2001 is. but given the id i'd presume its generated by the bios or there from before you got the pc
[22:22] <Ilmen> Shall I delete 0003 and 0004?
[22:23] <hitsujiTMO> hs366: what exactly do you mean by the global menu. One bug in particular i know about was an installer bug, where the wrong dependency what listed on the 32bit chrome .deb package. this meant that noone on a 32bit system could install chrome. it was about 2 weeks before the bug was fixed.
[22:24] <hitsujiTMO> Ilmen: if you wish. there's absolutely no harm in deleting the old entries. just don't delete the new ones :P
[22:24] <hs366> hitsujiTMO, http://askubuntu.com/questions/362972/global-menu-not-working-in-13-10
[22:24] <hs366> i installed chrome but i don't have global menu in chrome
[22:24] <hs366> i found this thread , i think it still not fixed
[22:25] <bekks> hs366: Hmmm. Is there a global menu in chrom at all?
[22:25] <hs366> emmm.. i think so
[22:25] <hs366> am i right ?
[22:26] <dkessel> hs366, well... chromium has a global menu. so one might think of chrome having one too...
[22:26] <Ilmen> I'll delete them and see if anything changes; I'll be right back
[22:26] <hitsujiTMO> hs366: erm. I'm not sure if this is a bug. there just might be NO menu in the later versions considering that chrom has its own menu system
[22:27] <Niebla> #Linux Mint
[22:27] <hs366> ok
[22:27] <bekks> hs366: I dont thing there is a global menu in chrome at all.
[22:27] <hs366> do you suggest i install the nity-gtk-module-common unity-gtk3-module
[22:27] <bekks> hs366: At least, for me, there isnt.
[22:27] <DoubleMintx> Hello, can someone help me figure out why one of my keyboards isn't working in Ubuntu?
[22:27] <hs366> as they suggest to install and fix the problem ?
[22:28] <DoubleMintx> I can get no input from it, but another cheap one works fine.
[22:29] <jhutchins> DoubleMintx: Does it work on other systems?
[22:29] <hs366> im just new and can't recognize the trusted applications for install . so i prefer to check in channel before do anyting
[22:29] <hitsujiTMO> hs366: unity-gtk3-module should be installed already. not sure about  nity-gtk-module-common
[22:29] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: Yes, the keyboard works fine on Windows 8 and 7, which is what I'm using now.
[22:29] <hitsujiTMO> hs366: I think it's more to do with the fact that there is no menu tho. I'm on openbox and I have no menu
[22:30] <jhutchins> hs366: Generally if you stick to the official repositories you're as safe as you can be.
[22:30] <hs366> hitsujiTMO, ok then , i do nothing
[22:30] <bekks> hs366: On chrome, there is no global menu. I just tested using different desktop environments.
[22:30] <hs366> perfect !
[22:30] <jhutchins> DoubleMintx: You could run dmesg, plug the keyboard in, run it again and see what it thinks is happening.
[22:30] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: I'm also just getting started in Linux, so I have no idea how to install drivers or anything like that.
[22:30] <hs366> thx hitsujiTMO , jhutchins , bekks !
[22:31] <jhutchins> DoubleMintx: USB HID drivers are pretty standard.  Most drivers are packaged with the kernel.
[22:31] <hs366> ths dkessel
[22:32] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: It also seems like the keyboard isn't getting any power aside from the LED backlight. The "Num Lock" key cannot be toggled on an off, and I cannot change the backlight settings. It is as if booting Linux completely kills the keyboard.
[22:32] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: But the other one still works fine.
[22:33] <jhutchins> DoubleMintx: Try a different port.
[22:33] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: I've tried both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 with no luck, and I've also attempted to change the USB initialization options in my motherboard's BIOS.
[22:34] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: Neither have yielded any results.
[22:34] <jhutchins> DoubleMintx: dmesg is the only place where you'll see any info that can help you.
[22:34] <ResQue> using dpkg --get-selections i can see a few packages marked "deinstall" i checked the man page for the meaning but how and when will these packages be gone 100%
[22:35] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: Ok, then I'll have to Live boot Ubuntu and see if I can conect to this channel from my iPad or something.
[22:36] <DoubleMintx> OK, now I have an account in this channel on my iPad.
[22:36] <DoubleMintx> jhutchins: I'll try Live Booting Ubuntu now.
[22:37] <Bizzeh> hi, is there any way of making ubuntu less, terrible, when running as a guest under hyperv? currently giving it access to 4 4ghz cpus and 8gb of ram, and it still runs like it has a ball and chain around its feet

[22:48] <xDreal> good evening, may i ask here some questions about vpn
[22:48] <aaronn23> imac
[22:48] <aaronn23> !pmac
[22:49] <aaronn23> !mac
[22:50] <xeno> What is the group I should ask that question in?  It is strictly on Ubuntu I see it.
[22:51] <xDreal> where do i find trust worthy informations about vpn sellers, and i their anything i should specially care about if i want to use it on ubuntu?
[22:51] <Beldar> xeno, This is ubuntu, there is ##linux if that helps and other distro channels.
[22:51] <Ari-Yang> !waf
[22:53] <xeno> Okay, well, this is a question about Firefox only in ubuntu with the screenruler tool installed on ubuntu.  Is the browser, or the screenruler at fault for measuring 700px by the ruler, when the table column has a style limit of 640px?
[22:53] <Beldar> xDreal, info on vpn's is not really relevant here if you have specific issue on using one in ubuntu ask them.
[22:55] <xeno> Looks like Chromium gets it right, so presumably it is Firefox.  Drag.
[22:56] <Beldar> xDreal, A few questions on vpn's is okay you just want to be aware of polling and draggng out what may not be relevant is all, use some common sense is the issue really.
[22:57] <mujee> does anyone know how to setup hotspot in ubuntu 12.04 with wired network.
[22:57] <Beldar> xeno, If you get no answers here there is a #firefox channel.
[22:58] <xeno> Thank you Beldar.  I'm trying there.  It does appear to be a firefox problem, but it would be of interest here I should think.
[22:58] <Beldar> mujee, There are wiki's on wifi.
[22:59] <Beldar> xeno, cool just wanted to make sure you had options is all. ;)
[23:01] <Danato> mujee: http://www.howtogeek.com/116409/
[23:04] <grafi_> Is there something like XAMPP for Linux ???
[23:04] <ikonia> grafi_: "LAMP"
[23:05] <Beldar> mujee, I'm not seeing anything on the web for what you describe, which is I assume is a ethernet rather than adhock hotspot as wifi.
[23:05] <k1l> !lamp | grafi_
[23:06] <grafi_> thank you ubottu
[23:06] <grafi_> thank you kil
[23:15] <LayAnotherBlock> Problem: I can't seem to install Ubuntu on the VM.
[23:16] <LayAnotherBlock> It can't download the iso
[23:16] <ikonia> problem - you haven't described the problem
[23:16] <maestrojed> I have built a local Ubuntu Virtual Machine using Ubuntu Server and LAMP. How do I get the browsers in my native OS to point to that server? I'd like to do this via my hosts file. But what IP?
[23:16] <mujee_> beldar actually i have tried a lot of things but nothing is working for ad hoc
[23:16] <maestrojed> LayAnotherBlock download the ISO yourself. (at least that is what I just did).
[23:16] <ikonia> maestrojed: the virtual machines IP
[23:17] <maestrojed> ikonia I guess that would make sense :)
[23:17] <Hawkerz> ikonia, do you know if the QT Messaging Framework is necessary?
[23:17] <ikonia> Hawkerz: for what ?
[23:17] <mujee_> Beldar: actually i have tried a lot of things but nothing is working for ad hoc
[23:17] <LayAnotherBlock> Well, I did. I used as a virtual CD. I open it, Select my prefered settings, then it gives me the iso error.
[23:17] <Hawkerz> ikonia, Ubuntu to run properly I guess? It's among my startup applications, but I think the only thing it ever does is crash
[23:18] <Hawkerz> can't find any dependencies for it
[23:18] <Hawkerz> rdepends rather
[23:18] <ikonia> Hawkerz: if you try to remove it - you'll see what depends on it
[23:18] <ikonia> (if there are any package dependencies)
[23:18] <Hawkerz> (there are not)
[23:19] <Hawkerz> I just wasn't sure where it came from, probably some legacy thing from 12.04 I guess
[23:19] <ikonia> Hawkerz: try it, see what happens without it
[23:19] <ikonia> you can always put it back
[23:20] <mujee_> Danato: it didn't work for me
[23:20] <mujee_> when i create a new wireless connection it doesn't connect after sometimes it is disconnected
[23:21] <Hawkerz> mujee_, does this happen primarily when you are moving away from the access point?
[23:21] <Danato> mujee_: what part of it?
[23:22] <mujee_> Danato & Hawkers: Let me explain.. I am trying to share my wired connection through a wifi (like i used to do it in windows with connectify) but nothing works for me here in ubuntu 12.04
[23:23] <mujee_> I have tried using create a wireless network and other hotspot ppas but nothing works
[23:23] <Danato> mujee_: did you try this one? http://askubuntu.com/questions/180733/how-to-setup-a-wi-fi-hotspot-access-point-mode
[23:25] <mujee_> Danato: i have looked on this but when I installed a ppa ap-hotspot the terminal said your wireless card does not have access point mode
[23:26] <Danato> mujee_: tbh i ddnt know how to do it before, but i followed the first guide i sent you and it worked like a charm
[23:27] <DreamPCs> Hey guys. I currently have wine1.6 installed, but when I try to install 1.7 I get "wine1.7 : Depends: wine1.7-amd64 (= 1.7.7-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed"
[23:27] <DreamPCs> Any ideas?
[23:28] <Danato> mujee_: i believe thats the simplest way, something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-bPVnoJmzs
[23:28] <mujee_> danato the first should also work for me but it doesn't.. when I click on create my laptop tries to connect to that hotspot but it doesn't
[23:29] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: either you're mixing 2 ppas with 2 different versions of wine or you're using a dodgy ppa
[23:29] <DreamPCs> Ok, I hope not, I'm looking at sources now. Thank you.
[23:30] <DreamPCs> What happens if I have software installed that depends on a PPA but I remove that PPA?
[23:30] <DreamPCs> (Is removing the PPA effectively the same thing as commenting out the line in the sources?
[23:30] <hitsujiTMO> !ppa-purge | DreamPCs This is the only way you should ever remove a ppa
[23:30] <vfw> DreamPCs: Yes. It's the same
[23:31] <vfw> DreamPCs: But you'd need to run sudo apt-get update afterwards (if you manually remove the line).
[23:31] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: no its not the same as commenting out the source. You must remove the software too to avoid conflicts. hence why you use ppa-purge
[23:31] <DreamPCs> Ok, I think I'm getting it. Thanks.
[23:32] <vfw> DreamPCs: After removing it, you'll no longer get updates for the package you installed it from.
[23:32] <vfw> DreamPCs: But not getting any more updates is the only effect.
[23:33] <DreamPCs> Ok, I'm going to remove any wine related ppa and try to install from scratch.
[23:33] <DreamPCs> Thanks
[23:33] <mujee_> yes i do the same thing but it doesn't create that it tries to connect but it cannot create anything
[23:34] <DreamPCs> ppa purge is a bad command in my terminal.
[23:34] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: DONT do what vfw is telling you. That will leave you with a version of wine from one ppa, while you try to install wine from another will leave to the exact error you're getting
[23:35] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: what do you mean? have you installed ppa-purge?
[23:35] <DreamPCs> No I haven't. I assumed it came with the distro. I'll install it, sorry.
[23:35] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: wget https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa/+files/ppa-purge_0.2.6~karmic_all.deb && sudo dpkg -i ppa-purge_0.2.6~karmic_all.deb
[23:35] <DreamPCs> Is there an easy way to tell what ppas are on the system? I'm looking at the software sources.
[23:36] <vfw> DreamPCs: You should see them there.
[23:37] <DreamPCs> I see them here as urls but I don't know how to convert that the the ppa:name format.
[23:37] <vfw> DreamPCs: Are you sure you have any?  (Wine is in the regular sources, I'm pretty sure)
[23:37] <Jordan_U> DreamPCs: If you added them through the normal means they should be listed in Software Sources, and should also be files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. The one caveat though is that it's possible to have packages installed that came from a ppa, without still having the ppa in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/.
[23:37] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: you cab have a look in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d      a quick google of each url should bring you to a site containing the actual PPA name
[23:37] <DreamPCs> Well I have ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu precise main and source
[23:38] <hitsujiTMO> DreamPCs: then the ppa should be ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
[23:39] <DreamPCs> Ok I got it. Awesome thanks.
[23:40] <DreamPCs> It's purging now, I need to go get some stuff so I'll tend to it later.
[23:40] <DreamPCs> But thanks for all your help.

[23:47] <Synthead> Beldar: why not?
[23:47] <Beldar> ah terminator a miss read
[23:47] <Beldar> Synthead, I have no idea what terminator is.
[23:48] <Synthead> Beldar: a terminal emulator
[23:48] <Beldar> Synthead, ah, well had you mentioned this to start with we would not be communicating.
[23:50] <Beldar> I gave an answer per what you asked for well within reason

 Hi! Yesterday everything works fine . Today when I open my laptop I just find Nvidia not working ! 😔 I don't know why! I'm really socked and angry ! I uinstalled the latest kernel version but still have the same prob! Nvidia-smi gives an error msg says that Nvidia fails to communicate with the driver
 @Uchihanoureii  I managed to desinstall the 5.8.0-50 version with the command I suggested yesterday
 @Abir_ben_soltane, You need to uninstall last nvidia driver because it was in that update too
 I really won't  too
 this is frustrating
 i'm wondering why it was working fine yesterday
 i think two days ago it was ok
 working fine
 until today without any erason
 I don't have any update nor installed anything
[18:59] <alf1975> is there a problem with Kubuntu ? its the KDE flavour of Ubuntu ... but it's basicly KDE with Ubuntu/Debian

 Hello Kubuntu user community.!
 I am facing one issue, I don't know if that one has been already discussed
 I have a notebook + two monitors. On windows I was using docking station (dell 3100) and it worked fine.  It has a standard usb output
 in terminal, when I run xrandr, I get this
 Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384 … eDP-1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 309mm x 174mm …    1920x1080     60.00*+  59.97    59.96    59.93    48.00   …    1680x1050     59.95    59.88   …    1600x1024     60.17   …    1400x1050     59.98   …    1600x900      59.99    59.94    59.95    59.82   …    1280x1024     60.02   …    1440x900
 when I put one HDMI directly into my notebook, the monitor is recognized, but the third one still not
 HDMI-1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 527mm x 296mm …    1920x1080     60.00*+  74.97    50.00    59.94 …    1920x1080i    60.00    50.00    59.94 …    1680x1050     59.88 …    1280x1024     75.02    60.02 …    1440x900      59.90 …    1280x960      60.00 …    1280x720      60.00    50.00    59.94 …    1024x768      75.03    70.07    60.00 …    832x624       74.55 …    800x600
 this is what I will get when I attach HDMI of my monitor directly into the laptop, not the docking station
 can anybody help?
 If the laptop has a dedicated video card, you might need to run the laptop using the dedicated driver.
