[00:00] <dw1> raggg: oh the link is right under the release notes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/1224217
[00:00] <Gallomimia> whats the difference between installing "normal" or "live" in the server installer??
[00:02] <wheresmypaaants> Hey, anyone know how to make ubuntu treat ALL jar files as executable, instead of me having to go in and mark it as executable every time?
[00:03] <raggg> thanks dw1
[00:03] <TJ-> wheresmypaaants: files aren't executable unless the eXecute bit is set for the user, group, or others
[00:03] <wheresmypaaants> You're confusing me...
[00:04] <wheresmypaaants> TJ-: You're confusing me...
[00:04] <dw1> wheresmypaaants: http://askubuntu.com/questions/270172/how-can-i-make-a-jar-file-executable
[00:05] <clypso_> Hello. I am having problems with my lubuntu recognizing my wireless card. I literally dont see ANYTHING going on with my wireless.  I have A Sony pcg-7113L. All system information can be found here http://pastebin.com/r9nRP2bJ
[00:05] <wheresmypaaants> I don't want to have to do it individually, though
[00:05] <wheresmypaaants> I want Ubuntu to treat ALL jar files executable
[00:06] <bobo69> wheresmypaaants: do you want ot be able to launch the jar files from the command line or by double clicking the file?
[00:06] <Arbition> wheresmypaaants: Are they all +x ?
[00:06] <wheresmypaaants> double clicking
[00:06] <Guest44890> hi
[00:06] <wheresmypaaants> when i download, i want to instantly be able to double click and execute
[00:06] <Arbition> no can do
[00:06] <bobo69> wheresmypaaants: then thats easy, right click the jar file and go to properties then set as default from the open with tab
[00:07] <jq-> Hi, I made a new user account and deleted the original and now when I try to sudo it tells me I'm not in the sudoers file, how can I fix this?
[00:07] <scott_> Hi there.  I'm having a problem with PlayonLinux.  Could someone tell me if there's an IRC channel?
[00:07] <Arbition> When you download, they are by default, set to not have the +x flag
[00:07] <Arbition> that is a security feature
[00:07] <wheresmypaaants> Can i disable this security feature?
[00:07] <dw1> scott_: /msg alis list *playonlinux*
[00:07] <bobo69> Arbition: it sounds to me like he wants to be able to open the file from the gui
[00:08] <bobo69> Arbition: no need to mess with +x flag in that case. Its just going to open the apporate .desktop file
[00:08] <Arbition> I thought most file managers already executed .jar files in this manner
[00:09] <bobo69> Arbition: I'd bet that the default assocation to .jar files in archive manager. it is for me
[00:09] <scott_> sorry, what network is it under?
[00:09] <Arbition> could be
[00:09] <bobo69> The only thing to do is set the Open With default for .jar files
[00:09] <jq-> Hi, I made a new user account and deleted the original and now when I try to sudo it tells me I'm not in the sudoers file, how can I fix this?
[00:09] <wheresmypaaants> scott_: #ubuntu
[00:09] <TheLegace> hi can someone help me get monodevelop working in ubuntu 12.04
[00:09] <Arbition> Once again I suspect that is because they don't have +x set
[00:10] <Ben64> jq-: restart, go to the recovery mode, and add your new user to the sudo group
[00:10] <Arbition> but you know, if someone wants to willingly decrease their security for the sake of a little convenience, thats up to them I guess
[00:10] <jq-> Ben64: Recovery mode?
[00:10] <TheLegace> i cant get it to execute my project, it gives me cannot execute .... exe
[00:10] <linuxuz3r> ubuntu is such a nice distro
[00:10] <Ben64> jq-: yep. you get to it from the boot menu (grub)
[00:10] <jq-> Ben64: How?
[00:10] <Ben64> !recovery
[00:10] <Ben64> hmm...
[00:10] <scott_> oh ok I found it - thank you very much
[00:11] <Ben64> jq-: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode#Booting_into_recovery_mode
[00:11] <Arbition> Given its bytecode nature, I shouldn't be surprised that it is trivial to bypass despite having +x
[00:11] <luist> ffmpegthumbnailer doesnt work…. remove this stupid packge from the repos ¬¬
[00:11] <dw1> clypso_: first use lspci to see your actual network card model
[00:11] <Arbition> Anyway, open with, as bobo69 said
[00:11] <Guest44890> hi im having trouble with connecting mysql
[00:11] <jq-> Ben64: K, and how exactly to I add myself to the sudoers group?
[00:11] <Arbition> or properties and set default
[00:12] <clypso_> I have a Wireless 1500 draft 802.11l WLAN Mini-Card
[00:12] <Ben64> jq-: adduser <your user> sudo
[00:12] <raggg> how go i get 'gsettings set ... false' to be persistent? the setting resets every time i login...
[00:12] <bobo69> Ben64: sudo usermod -aG sudo <username>
[00:12] <jq-> Ben64: Awesome. Thanks
[00:12] <clypso_> 802.11n**
[00:12] <Ben64> or what bobo69 said
[00:12] <jq-> :P
[00:12] <jq-> K
[00:12] <jq-> Thanks :)
[00:12] <bobo69> jq-: : Is this the same username as the previous user?
[00:12] <jq-> bobo69: No
[00:12] <bobo69> jq-: if not, there is more work to be done after that
[00:13] <jq-> :/
[00:13] <jq-> Like what :(
[00:13] <bobo69> jq-: well im not sure to be honest. I might have spoken too soon. try to log out and back in and see if you can run sudo commands
[00:13] <jq-> Kk
[00:13] <bobo69> but you will need ot logout and in
[00:14] <dw1> clypso_: paste ifconfig and lspci @ http://paste.ubuntu.com
[00:14] <dw1> clypso_: to copy from terminal, select text then middle button (or both button) click at destination
[00:16] <Guest44890> Access denied for user 'z1727212'@'localhost'
[00:16] <Guest44890> while connecting to my sql
[00:16] <holstein> Guest44890: connect via ssh and test
[00:16] <Guest44890> ssh?
[00:16] <holstein> Guest44890: what are you trying to do?
[00:16] <Guest44890> im trying to connect to sql from php
[00:17] <holstein> Guest44890: i dont think thats how it works..
[00:17] <holstein> Guest44890: you are likely not in php to connect into a database from
[00:17] <holstein> Guest44890: start with the big picture of what you are trying to accomplish
[00:18] <jq-> bobo69: Worked fine, didn't have to do anything else
[00:18] <jq-> Thanks
[00:19] <bobo69> coal
[00:20] <linuxuz3r> unity is nice
[00:20] <linuxuz3r> lol
[00:21] <bobo69> linuxuz3r: isnt that the strangest thing? I never thought I'd say that either.
[00:22] <linuxuz3r> yes
[00:22] <linuxuz3r> they added more features
[00:23] <Bray90820_> How well does the microsoft multitouch mouse work with ubuntu i know that the apple one is pretty bad
[00:25] <Gallomimia> every time i do something new with the partition table the server makes me reinstall
[00:25] <holstein> Bray90820_: nothing about linux or ubuntu is preventing microsoft or apple from providing support for either of those
[00:26] <holstein> Gallomimia: i think its more like, everytime you mess with the partition table, the media has a new partition table, and forgets your data is there
[00:26] <slowkiller> lol
[00:27] <badbz> yeah, generally you want to figure out your partition scheme once and stick with it.
[00:27] <badbz> screweing with partitions is a very easy way to lose data quickly
[00:28] <holstein> Gallomimia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery#Lost_Partition might help.. but, you should have backups, and expect issues as stated above
[00:28] <badbz> what is it that you are trying to acomplish?
[00:28] <Gallomimia> its not crucial data. just the last install
[00:28] <slowkiller> Gallominia I've been there
[00:28] <Gallomimia> getting annoying to try installing every time
[00:30] <holstein> Gallomimia: just stop messing with the partition table
[00:30] <Gallomimia> no, i can't get the damn thing to boot
[00:30] <holstein> Gallomimia: i would address that issue idependently from the creation or deletion of partition tables
[00:30] <holstein> Gallomimia: you can test the media.. could be malfunctioning
[00:31] <badbz> so, after you install and when the system reboots and starts for the first time post install it won’t boot?
[00:32] <Gallomimia> it doesn't boot for the first time
[00:32] <badbz> do you see the grub loading screen at all?
[00:33] <Gallomimia> it never succeeds in installing grub
[00:33] <badbz> what error does it give?
[00:33] <Gallomimia> failed to install grub this error is fatal
[00:34] <holstein> Gallomimia: i would expect to,a nd have seen that error on failing hard drives
[00:34] <en16m4666> can you boot into the os at all?
[00:34] <Gallomimia> i had it working on a single drive yes
[00:34] <holstein> Gallomimia: can you boot the live CD without issue?
[00:34] <Gallomimia> another os, with a previous video card. um. it was ubuntu 13.10
[00:35] <Gallomimia> the livecd seems to work
[00:35] <Gallomimia> im using a server installer
[00:35] <holstein> Gallomimia: try the live CD for ubuntu 14.04, and let me know if it works for *certain*
[00:35] <holstein> Gallomimia: oh.. i see.. i still think the live CD would be a good test. otherwise, test the hard drives.. you can use gsmartcontrol from the live CD im suggesting
[00:35] <badbz> could always boot the live cd and run sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[00:35] <badbz> see if that works.
[00:36] <Gallomimia> that would be a good idea
[00:36] <en16m4666> sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[00:36] <en16m4666> then grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[00:37] <Gallomimia> grub install fails to run on this installer, and so does sudo
[00:37] <en16m4666> sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[00:37] <en16m4666> ooo...
[00:37] <Gallomimia> yep. it's pretty fun
[00:37] <svm_invictvs> Hello
[00:37] <holstein> !md5 | Gallomimia
[00:37] <Gallomimia> i'll try flashing a different usb with the live cd and see
[00:37] <holstein> Gallomimia: could be a bad iso, or installation media as well
[00:37] <svm_invictvs> These instructions will not create a USB stick that's bootable from a system not OSX, correct?
[00:38] <svm_invictvs> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx
[00:38] <badbz> could check the drive with smartmontools as well.
[00:39] <holstein> svm_invictvs: the operating system is really not the issue.. nothing about osx is going to prevent anything from booting.. but, the mac hardware itself may prevent, or not facilitate USB booting.. they (apple) never promised you that funcitonality
[00:39] <holstein> svm_invictvs: i was able to boot a CD and use plop.. but that was older mac hardware.. an older white macbook
[00:39] <newhoa> Hey, would anyone using Ubuntu 14.04, a Radeon 7xxx card, and the open source Radeon drivers be able to help me out with a problem? I would really appreciate it. I'm trying to nail down a bug in MComix or Glamor, but need someone else to try it out.
[00:40] <Gallomimia> newhoa: i just ditched my radeon 7970 for an nvidia card
[00:40] <Gallomimia> cause lets face it. that card's drivers suck
[00:41] <Guest44890> hi can i copy my sql tables from a remote machine to my local machine?
[00:41] <Guest44890> along with data?
[00:41] <wols> Guest44890: if it's the same mysql version, yes
[00:42] <Guest44890> let me check
[00:42] <wols> newhoa: always ask your real question or state your real problem
[00:42] <newhoa> Gallomimia: Actually, I'm really excited since trying the latest drivers and kernel... I'm playing all the Steam games as 60fps, which is better than I ever did with either the OSS driver or official AMD driver. It's just this one program that is doing a weird glitchy thing.
[00:43] <newhoa> wols: I usually do, but in this case I need to send someone a link to the file I'm having trouble with and I won't have the bandwidth to do that in the room.
[00:43] <Gallomimia> my card is some strange factory overclocked thing and most drivers dont work 100% with it
[00:44] <wols> so you buy bad hardware and blame the drivers? tho of course your statement itself is totally ludicrous
[00:44] <Guest44890> @wols i m trying to copy from 5.5.37 to 5.5.27
[00:45] <Guest44890> will it be okay?
[00:45] <wols> Guest44890: you can only try,probably it will. or you can do a normal backup of your DB with mysql itself and restore it
[00:46] <newhoa> But in case anyone else can test it out: Ubuntu 14.04, Radeon 7xxx (I'm using 7770), open source Radeon driver. Try opening a GIF with MComix and have MComix set to single page mode and Fit to width or Fit to size mode - any mode that requires single page vertical scrolling. Scroll down and see if there are any missing portions of the image. Sometimes it won't render beyond the initial load (so the bottom half is missing entirely), or it lea
[00:47] <daftykins> or it lea...? your message was too long and got chopped
[00:47] <daftykins> however what is this 'mcomix' ? what makes it become an ubuntu problem?
[00:48] <newhoa> or it leaves missing lines.
[00:48] <holstein> newhoa: i would try the proprietary driver for an alternative
[00:49] <Guest44890> is there a theme for ubuntu like mac to get apps floating above or below in panels?
[00:50] <Guest44890> instead of a side bar
[00:50] <twaxler> might be little bit of  dumb question cause ive google searched up and down but is there any program equivalent to manycam/youcam that will run?
[00:50] <newhoa> MComix is an image viewer, but best for comic archives. I'm having problems with any GIF images.
[00:50] <newhoa> I'm trying to verify that it's an Ubuntu problem. I didn't have this problem before the 14.04 upgrade, and no one else I've asked with another OS has had this problem.
[00:51] <newhoa>  I've narrowed it down to glamor, but I'm looking for others to verify. If it is, it's specifically a bug Ubuntus glamor package.
[00:51] <clypso> Hey ok so im back. I see my wifi connections. But the problem now is when i type in my wifi password it just accepts it and then nothing else. I try firefox and no go. i tried this several times with a reboot and wifi hardswitch reboot.
[00:52] <holstein> newhoa: well, i think it would be more like a driver problem
[00:55] <newhoa> holstein: I've tried upgrading the radeon driver and the problem doesn't change, changing the glamor packages is the only thing that has changes the bug (and it gets worse with the latest glamor package). I don't totally understand the relationship between the radeon driver and glamor though.
[00:56] <raggg> i have a perfectly working battery indicator in unity and in gnome fallback, but not in gnome-fallback with i3wm, any ideas?
[00:56] <holstein> newhoa: i didnt suggest upgrading anything.. you state you are using the open drive. try the proprietary one
[00:57] <newhoa> holstein: Does the proprietary driver use glamor? I'm trying to get to the root of the bug so I can report it.
[00:58] <rww> don't think it does
[00:58] <holstein> newhoa: the driver will be the issue, friend
[01:00] <trism> newhoa: couldn't reproduce it on any of my systems here, although I suppose it might depend on the test image, didn't have any gifs that large so had to make one
[01:02] <svm_invictvs> holstein: The instructions I linked say they're OSX only and I need to use unetboonin
[01:02] <newhoa> holstein: Would you mind explaining why? I'm just trying to understand, but changing to any other version of the driver has no effect, changing glamor does. So why would the problem be the driver?
[01:02] <holstein> svm_invictvs: the issue will be, the mac booting usb in any way
[01:03] <newhoa> trism: Thank you for taking the time, I really appreciate it. I just tried making a very long gif myself in gimp, all white, and the issue still happens for me. Are you using 14.04, Radeon 7xxx, and open source drivers?
[01:03] <holstein> newhoa: the hardware is not open.. the open driver is doing what it can.. the only driver the manufacturer has anything to do with is the proprietary one
[01:03] <Gallomimia> i got the system to boot with my crazy install after much uefi boot sector problems but not its just a blackscreen
[01:03] <svm_invictvs> holstein: You're missing ht epoint
[01:03] <holstein> !nomodeset
[01:04] <svm_invictvs> holstein: I was asking for a way to make a USB bootable disk *on* a Mac *for* a PC
[01:04] <holstein> Gallomimia: you can try nomodeset
[01:04] <Gallomimia> oh yes
[01:04] <holstein> svm_invictvs: i just use the application.. you can dd copy the iso's from a mac
[01:04] <Gallomimia> i forgot how much fun that was
[01:04] <TreSyr> can chat tst
[01:04] <TreSyr> Hiyas! :)
[01:04] <k1l_> svm_invictvs: dd the regular iso onto the usb drive
[01:04] <svm_invictvs> holstein: Fails to boot on the target box
[01:04] <svm_invictvs> k1l_: ^^
[01:04] <k1l_> svm_invictvs: why fails?
[01:05] <svm_invictvs> k1l_: Doesn't say
[01:05] <ianorlin> svm_invictvs: does the box boot other usb drives?
[01:05] <k1l_> svm_invictvs: check the md5sum before dd/burning
[01:05] <k1l_> svm_invictvs: and make sure you dd onto sdb and not sdb1
[01:05] <svm_invictvs> ianorlin: It sees the usb device in the boot menu, spits out an error very quickly then boots its normal OS
[01:05] <svm_invictvs> k1l_: Yeah...
[01:05] <svm_invictvs> Let me try this on my linux box at home.
[01:05] <holstein> svm_invictvs: could be a bad sum.. bad stick.. or the machine cant boot usb.. try the stick on another machine as well
[01:06] <Gallomimia> i got the grub screen
[01:06] <clypso> Hey so whenever i connect to my wifi it asks for my wifi password. I enter it and thats it. Nothing else happens. Internet still wont work. Tried reboot and hardswitch reboot. This is a fresh install.. Lubuntu
[01:06] <k1l_> svm_invictvs: if you can boot the ubuntu on another machine you know the stick/iso is fine
[01:06] <svm_invictvs> I'll give that a shot
[01:06] <svm_invictvs> Yeah
[01:06] <holstein> clypso: i would just hardwire, and apply all upgrades.. then, i would try removing any cached wifi password or connection attempts
[01:07] <clypso> i hardwired. I applied all upgrades. Im not sure how to remove any cached wifi password or connection attempts though. Could u explain ?
[01:08] <holstein> clypso: in the menu, where the wifi access points are listed. i just delete them, and reconnect
[01:09] <clypso> how can you delete them? It shows a list of wifi connection points but i cant even right click or anything.
[01:09] <TreSyr> go to settings to do that
[01:10] <holstein> clypso: i dont have unity running here, but, i just click around til i see how to remove them.. dont sweat it, though.. this is *not* a fix.. just a troubleshooting step.. did wifi work from the live CD?
[01:10] <clypso> yeah it worked when i had ubuntu on here
[01:10] <clypso> i now i have lubuntu
[01:10] <holstein> clypso: lubuntu *is* ubuntu
[01:10] <clypso> true lol
[01:10] <holstein> clypso: is the nm-applet running?
[01:10] <clypso> ?
[01:11] <holstein> clypso: do you see a little icon down by the time that you can click on that shows connection information?
[01:11] <trism> newhoa: yes one of the systems is radeon, different card though, Radeon HD 5450
[01:11] <clypso> yeah
[01:11] <clypso> i got 2 of them for the networks
[01:11] <TreSyr> trism ?...
[01:12] <clypso> network status monitor and manage networks
[01:12] <trism> TreSyr: yes?
[01:12] <TreSyr> "newhoa" is directed to whom ?
[01:13] <newhoa> trism: Okay, thanks!
[01:13] <TreSyr> Yep, id kickban them both
[01:13] <TreSyr> trism, newhoa
[01:13] <clypso> Yup im ready when you are. What u want me to do next
[01:14] <TreSyr> trism, newhoa
[01:14] <TreSyr> ...
[01:15] <newhoa> I think we broke TreSyr
[01:15] <TreSyr> Hideous drones ^
[01:15] <clypso> so
[01:15] <clypso> -_-
[01:17] <clypso> Holstein ?
[01:17] <holstein> clypso: whats up?
[01:17] <clypso> i thought u were mid explaining something
[01:17] <clypso> bottom right i see those icons. The one that shows for the wifi connects. But only options i get is repair or disable
[01:17] <holstein> clypso: nope.. its an open channel.. i say, install unity if you understand how to connect to wifi better with it
[01:17] <daftykins> what a hilarious misunderstanding. carry on!
[01:17] <clypso> unity ?
[01:17] <holstein> clypso: you should remove your connection, and try again
[01:17] <Viking667> hullo all... I've got a gnome-shell question. Where does gnome-shell get its initial information from when a user logs in, about what the supported monitors are, what the requested keymap is?
[01:18] <clypso> kinda baby step me on this. im very green to linux
[01:18] <holstein> clypso: you stated "wifi worked fine with ubuntu, now im running lubuntu"
[01:18] <clypso> i just need to use this os for now.
[01:18] <lorele> Yay Lubuntu.
[01:18] <clypso> damnit. this sucks
[01:18] <clypso> driving me insane
[01:18] <holstein> clypso: *if* that was ubuntu 14.04, and you are using lubuntu 14.04, then, there is nothing technical that should be preventing your connection
[01:18] <clypso> yeah i know its odd
[01:19] <holstein> clypso: im not suggesting you use another os
[01:19] <holstein> clypso: im saying, if you understand how to use unity, just install it via a wired connection and use it
[01:19] <ianorlin> clypso you had the broadcom 4321 right did you do additional drivers
[01:19] <clypso> yeah
[01:19] <holstein> clypso: otherwise, you should be able to access the saved wifi access points and remove them.. have you tried that?
[01:19] <TreSyr> tools
[01:19] <TreSyr> :)
[01:19] <clypso> i dont know how
[01:19] <clypso> =(
[01:20] <Viking667> Also, I'm getting a "no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparam.c:4864, leaking memory" every time I do "sudo something"
[01:20] <holstein> clypso: i just find them in the menu.. in *any* de and remove them.. where are you looking?
[01:20] <clypso> i went to 'Network connections'
[01:20] <holstein> clypso: you'll see an "edit connections" menu when you right click on the nm-applet
[01:21] <holstein> clypso: ok.. if you dont see settings there, close that, and go elsewhere..
[01:21] <clypso> i see edi
[01:21] <clypso> edit
[01:21] <holstein> clypso: ok.. try that
[01:21] <clypso> its for ethernet connection
[01:21] <holstein> clypso: ok. so, its not that, close that, and keep moving
[01:22] <clypso> networking settings
[01:22] <clypso> Host Settings:
[01:22] <clypso> Domain Name:
[01:23] <clypso> General, DNS, Hosts   - Those are the tabs at the top of it
[01:23] <holstein> clypso: you want to remove the wifi access point you have created that could be "bad"
[01:23] <holstein> clypso: if you dont see a way to do so, just close that, and keep moving
[01:23] <clypso> well
[01:23] <clypso> i dont see anything else
[01:23] <clypso> -_-
[01:24] <ianorlin> clpso hit alt f2 and enter software-properties-gtk --open-tab=4 as your card needs wl the proprietary braodcom driver
[01:24] <trism> Viking667: that's bug 1257186
[01:24] <holstein> clypso: please do what ianorlin suggests
[01:24] <holstein> clypso: if you havent installed the driver for you hardware, you need to do that first. wire up to internet first
[01:27] <Gallomimia> holstein: cant seem to get anything with nomodeset
[01:27] <holstein> !uefi
[01:27] <holstein> Gallomimia: im not sure what, if anything, about your hardware is preventing your installation from bootin
[01:28] <Gallomimia> i suspect its my desire to use an encrypted filesystem
[01:28] <holstein> Gallomimia: try without it, and see
[01:29] <holstein> Gallomimia: that should have *no* effect on the live CD booting.. but, a "safe boot" bios option will
[01:29] <Gallomimia> oh yes. we wanted a blank usb stick for this...
[01:31] <Guest44890> @wols hey it worked thanks
[01:34] <TreSyr> First delete all partitions, perhaps with gparted, create required partitions and load the data onto the stick with dd if=/dev/Interface...hdb..for..instance.     of=/the/data   ... Hideous arguments to this command, but it always does according to its purpose and it never fails.
[01:35] <guest939> yo mother fuckers lol
[01:37] <TreSyr> Good bye

[01:53] <Viking667> So. Where does gnome-shell read user preferences from, and on my system, how come it's not setting them even though it says it is?
[01:54] <Viking667> Example: I've got dvorak layout keyboard, yet I get asked for passwords in US until I specifically CHANGE the keyboard layout back to dvorak.
[01:59] <Wferr> Hello, Can someone help me? Im trying to do a apt-get upgrade but i keep on getting this http://hastebin.com/verehaqeru.vhdl
[02:00] <daftykins> Wferr: had a failed upgrade recently?
[02:01] <Wferr> daftykins: i did a upgrade to 14.04 from 13.10 but it worked
[02:01] <daftykins> so 14.04 was installing updates fine up until... now?
[02:02] <Wferr> well it broke after i updated to 14.04
[02:02] <daftykins> interesting
[02:02] <daftykins> is it a VM or a physical system?
[02:03] <Wferr> Its a VPN
[02:03] <daftykins> VPS? what kind
[02:03] <Guest44890> hi
[02:05] <Wferr> daftykins: openvz
[02:05] <daftykins> hi
[02:05] <daftykins> Wferr: it's your unlucky day, udev has issues with openvz, or vice versa
[02:05] <Wferr> dang ;/
[02:06] <daftykins> Wferr: i'd suggest you check with your provider for a solution/alternative
[02:07] <Wferr> ty for the help daftykins
[02:07]  * Wferr sends internet cookies to daftykins
[02:07] <daftykins> >:D
[02:07] <Wferr> :3
[02:08] <intelligitimate> I can't upgrade to 12.04. I get a "failed to fetch" message and "size mismatch" on a file called "gwibber-service-facebook_3.4.2-0ubuntu2.4_all.deb"
[02:09] <daftykins> upgrading from...?
[02:09] <intelligitimate> 10.04 I think.
[02:09] <daftykins> server?
[02:09] <Wferr> daftykins: would i be able to go on a KVM and reinstall it?
[02:09] <intelligitimate> Main.
[02:09] <daftykins> by 'Main' do you mean desktop?
[02:10] <daftykins> Wferr: not sure i'm afraid, switching tech might be quite serious and need a full reinstall
[02:10] <intelligitimate> No, I mean I have the "main" server selected in the Software Sources.
[02:10] <intelligitimate> But yes, it is the desktop of Lucid.
[02:11] <daftykins> !eol | intelligitimate
[02:11] <daftykins> intelligitimate: really, i would backup and clean install 14.04
[02:12] <anjonath> Hello .. I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu on my new laptop. GRUB fail to install .. I boot back in Win8 to remove the failed install partition that Ubuntu created and notice something weird (I think?) Here is how it's organized: http://i.imgur.com/yuHfyqV.jpg .. seems like one partition does everything? what should I do to install Ubuntu on that?
[02:14] <Wferr> daftykins: took the risk because i did a backup right before, purged udev then installed it over kvm and it works :D
[02:15] <daftykins> anjonath: what do you mean 'one does everything' ?
[02:15] <Deihmos> windows backed up ubuntu partitions nicely
[02:15] <daftykins> i see two disks and no sign of Linux partitions
[02:15] <psusi> windows doesn't understand linux filesystems
[02:16] <anjonath> I mean that there is only one partition having anything on it, no booting partition, shouldnt there be one?
[02:16] <anjonath> there is a EFI partition and it's emtpy
[02:16] <daftykins> that EFI partition won't be empty
[02:18] <psusi> that's really weird.. there should be a little something in it
[02:21] <daftykins> !raring
[02:25] <zenNamaste> Hi guys. How to debug a ubuntu app? I found a hang when I change my passwd via gnome-control-center. I can reproduce it 100% with a new installed system. I installed gnome-control-center-dbgsym and run it with `gdb gonme-control-center`. But when I use "l" it can't show the source code so I can't debug it by steps.
[02:27] <zenNamaste> I have checked the wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEApplets.  However the app I debuged didn't crash at all.

[02:53] <cuddylier> Is it possible to wget from a certain IP on my box?
[02:53] <cuddylier> Rather than the default box IP
[02:54] <[asimov]> If my box cab send altered packets
[02:55] <daftykins> cuddylier: 'default box IP' = ?
[02:56] <daftykins> you're not making sense
[02:56] <cuddylier> dafykins: I mean the main IP on eth0
[02:56] <cuddylier> I have a GRE tunnel on my box as additional IPs, I want to be able to test a download through the GRE connection
[02:56] <cuddylier> Rather than the connection that is direct to the switch
[02:57] <cuddylier> Which is the main eth0 IP
[02:57] <[asimov]> for what?
[02:57] <cuddylier> [asimov] I assume you're talking about what I am? What part do you want clarification on?
[02:59] <[asimov]> cuddylier: To whome?
[02:59] <cuddylier> Sorry?
[02:59] <b9000> how do I start to troubleshoot why my laptop does not go to sleep when I close the lid?
[02:59] <[asimov]> cuddylier: just run the script
[02:59] <cuddylier> What script?
[03:00] <[asimov]> 'clarification'
[03:00] <jellow> b9000, look at dmesg might be something
[03:00] <daftykins> cuddylier: change your gateway
[03:00] <cuddylier> daftykins: Is there anyway without changing my gateway?
[03:00] <psusi> cuddylier, did you read the man page?  --bind-address
[03:01] <b9000> ok thanks
[03:01] <cuddylier> No I did not.
[03:01] <[asimov]> run it
[03:03] <[asimov]> does crystal time move slower than mechanical time?
[03:03] <b9000> nothing in dmesg from what I can see. :(
[03:04] <[asimov]> What iis the difference between gamma waves and gamma rays?
[03:04] <cuddylier> psusi: wget --bind-address xxx.xxx.x.xx -O/dev/null speedtest.pixelwolf.ch
[03:04] <cuddylier> So e.g. that yeah?
[03:04] <daftykins> [asimov]: take your incessant rambling to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[03:09] <reaper> ok i have a general question that im sure is a no brainer but i cant figure out... i went through the package manager and installed java 7 however i still need jre 1.5.0 at least and its not showing that java in working at java.com
[03:10] <daftykins> it seems unwise to desire such an outdated java
[03:10] <rww> reaper: install icedtea-plugin or whatever it's called
[03:11] <reaper> rww do i just do that through firefox or the package manager?
[03:11] <rww> the package manager
[03:12] <rww> and then close firefox and re-open
[03:12] <rww> installing the Java 7 JRE just installs the Java runtime, not the browser plugin. Icedtea is the browser plugin for OpenJDK
[03:14] <reaper> rww i am doing that now
[03:18] <reaper> rww the script program that i am running says that it needs 1.5.0 how can i get that ? this is on a box just for teamspeak so outdated to me does not matter
[03:19] <rww> 1.5.0 as opposed to an up to date version?
[03:19] <reaper> rww every time that i start it, it states needs 1.5.0 to run
[03:20] <reaper> and then closes
[03:20]  * rww shrugs
[03:20] <rww> i'd contact the vendor. out of date Java is... a problem
[03:20] <reaper> out of date is common on the teamspeak plugins
[03:22] <reaper> its saying it needs java runtime environment 1.5.0 bleh
[03:28] <wjb> Does anyone have experience using ipset with iptables? Inexplicably, after creating an ipset and logging it to verify, it's gone by the time iptables needs it
[03:31] <reaper> rww dumb question but is the jdk*.bin the one that contains the Jre stuff?
[03:32] <rww> reaper: sounds like you're using out-of-repository Java. I don't support that, sorry :(
[03:32] <rww> someone else might know
[03:32] <reaper> ya thats about all i could come up with atm on how to track down an older version and make the reversion of java
[03:33] <fldeepin> hi
[03:35] <wjb> reaper: the jdk is the entire software development kit; it includes the jre binaries, but is overkill if you just need the runtime
[03:35] <reaper> wjb any ideas how to get just the 1.5.0 jre?
[03:37] <Guest278> reaper: what's the real problem? why the jdk 7 is not good for you?
[03:38] <reaper> i am running and deploying a teamspeak shell box just for the server, the bot script that i use required 1.5.0
[03:38] <reaper> it will not accept anything else
[03:38] <wjb> do you have the source of the script?
[03:38] <wjb> it's probably somewhat trivial to update it for java7 or java8
[03:39] <reaper> i am unsure if i have the source for it or not honestly
[03:39] <Guest278> right, java is mostly backwards compatible
[03:39] <reaper> i have the Jar container
[03:39] <Guest278> a jar is a renamed zip
[03:39] <reaper> and i believe all the config files for it
[03:40] <reaper> well i went to java.com and it verified that i do indeed have current
[03:40] <reaper> however its still not wanting to work
[03:40] <wjb> sometimes, a Jar may include the source as well as binaries
[03:40] <wjb> extract the contents of the jar and take a look
[03:41] <wjb> also, here's your jre5 link:
[03:41] <wjb> http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase5-419410.html#jre-1.5.0_22-oth-JPR
[03:42] <reaper> what would the source look like?
[03:42] <wjb> Obviously, it's not a great idea to run an outdated version of java on any public-facing machine, so if it were my project, i would strongly suggest not reverting your java installation
[03:42] <wjb> the source would end in a .java extension
[03:42] <reaper> ok still looking
[03:44] <reaper> nah all class files in the folders and one manifest.mf
[03:44] <wjb> the class files are compiled bytecode for the jvm
[03:44] <Guest278> you could still decompile the class files... or use an open source bot
[03:45] <wjb> ^ these are probably both better solutions than installing jre5
[03:45] <reaper> how would i go about doing that
[03:46] <reaper> the bot im using was originally setup for linux like 4 years ago lol
[03:46] <Guest278> for the second option, you google "teamspeak open source bot"
[03:46] <reaper> the name that i am using of the bot is JTS3ServerMod.jar
[03:47] <Guest278> for the first one, you feed the .class files to a decompiler (examples http://askubuntu.com/questions/272189/open-source-free-java-decompiler )
[03:47] <reaper> i am not too worried about the systm
[03:47] <reaper> as its running off a flash drive
[03:48] <reaper> no hardware ie harddrive to interface with
[03:48] <Guest278> then update, then javac the code
[03:50] <newshound>  /set weechat.bar.nicklist.position right
[03:50] <Guest278> or even better, mail the author of the bot, so s/he updates it upstream
[03:51] <reaper> im looking into Krakatau atm
[03:55] <Viking667> hi all. How do I disable a screen when I use xrandr?
[03:55] <nevyn> Viking667: --off
[03:56] <Viking667> so, xrandr --output VGA-0 --off    ?
[03:56] <nevyn> should be.
[03:57] <nevyn> check xrandr --help
[03:57] <Viking667> thanks. I'll try that.
[03:57] <Viking667> ... then I've got to do the gnome-shell --reload and pkill -9 -f gnome-settings-daemon
[03:57] <reaper> guest278 i have never used python is that pretty straight forward to use?
[03:58] <Viking667> Silly thing won't select my preferred screenmode or my preferred keyboard layout on user login.
[03:59] <Guest278> wgat
[03:59] <Guest278> what does that have with java
[04:02] <Corvette> So I put in a new mobo and water cooled my machine, but running the same OS, Ubuntu 12.04. For some reason now it won't recognize ethernet
[04:03] <reaper> that decompiler/assmbler says that it uses python to do the stuff
[04:04] <reaper> should i look at a different one?
[04:04] <wjb> The new motherboard likely has a NIC which requires new drivers
[04:04] <wjb> Did you reinstall 12.04, or did you just swap out hardware?
[04:05] <reaper> guest278 that decompiler/assmbler says that it uses python to do the stuff
[04:05] <reaper> guest278 should i look at a different one?
[04:05] <wjb> reaper: take a look at Procyon
[04:07] <Guest278> reaper: just follow a tutorial, see http://www.acloudtree.com/hacking-java-bytecode-for-programmers-part4-krakatau-and-the-case-of-the-integer-overflow/
[04:07] <Guest278> section "the krakatau way"
[04:07] <Guest278> not "the hard way"
[04:11] <reaper> lol ya i noticed that
[04:23] <MrBender91> Hi, I'm trying to image a drive using dd. If the drive is 120GB but the last partition is only at the 45GB mark why can't I just image the first 45GB of the drive?
[04:26] <Beldar> MrBender91, I would clone it, dd can be dangerous
[04:27] <Beldar> if you clone you have a backup
[04:27] <MrBender91> Beldar: Using Clonezilla? That program has never made sense to me.
[04:28] <Beldar> MrBender91, I use clonezilla, it is not hard at all, I can see if you not used to it that it could be.
[04:28] <Beldar> you're
[04:29] <rww> I'd go with Clonezilla too, but I don't understand the original question, it seems like it should be doable.
[04:30] <Guest278> you can also clone with gparted. fallocate -l 45G imagefile.img ; pkexec gparted /dev/sdX imagefile.img ; copy-paste the partition ; click Apply.
[04:31] <Beldar> MrBender91, Here is a picture set, I would be more than happy to get you going if needed. http://clonezilla.org/screenshots/?in_path=/00_Clonezilla
[04:32] <Guest278> for dd, you set the parameters bs and count such that bs*count >= 45GiB (be careful of the GB/GiB) and that bs bytes are copied in memory at each round.
[04:32] <Beldar> I have used a copy and paste with gparted that works fine.
[04:34] <MrBender91> Beldar: I'm going to try the gparted route since I'm already familiar with it...
[04:34] <MrBender91> is fallocate necessary?
[04:34] <Guest278> no, but there is no reason not to use it on ext4, btrfs, xfs
[04:35] <Guest278> it's just to help keep fragmentation low while writing to the image, useful if youìre writing something else to the disk in the process
[04:37] <dw1> hmm, what sound file is used for the gnome-terminal beep?
[04:38] <Beldar> MrBender91, Cool, you still have the original that way. ;)
[04:38] <dw1> ok its in System -> Sound. easy
[04:38] <dw1> but how do I add more. hmm
[04:41] <dw1> i see lots in the /usr/share/sounds and /usr/share/gnome-control-center/sounds/gnome-sounds-default.xml but they dont show up in the preferences
[04:41] <dw1> hrm
[04:48] <hoho> I saved a file MAKEDEV to the desktop, and entered chmod u+x MAKEDEV, but was told that MAKEDEV doesn't exist - any suggestions?
[04:49] <MrBender91> Beldar: and Guest278
[04:49] <MrBender91> Guest278:
[04:49] <Beldar> MrBender91, yes.
[04:49] <Guest278> hoho: ./MAKEDEV
[04:49] <MrBender91> I'll let you guys know how this goes, about 40% done now
[04:50] <Beldar> MrBender91, Cool. ;)
[04:51] <hoho> guest278: Sorry, rather inexperienced - could you explain more?
[04:51] <Guest278> hoho: but the real question is, what is the real problem? what are you trying to do?
[04:51] <hoho> Create a video devices node - http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Webcam-HOWTO/dev-intro.html
[04:51] <MrBender91> I've sysprepped a Win7 install to have as a backup
[04:52] <Guest278> Why do you want to create it by hand?
[04:52] <Guest278> the devices are supposed to be detected automatically
[04:53] <hoho> guest278: I don't have one, and I want to make Pidgin or webrtc think that it exists.
[04:54] <Guest278> ok, Any reason you're not using WebCamStudio, v4l2loopback, or other solutions that can be quickly found on google?
[04:55] <hoho> guest278: this seemd to be a solution to the following problem: audio on webrtc sites (like talky.io and tawk.com) only seem to work with firefox when one has a webcam. So I thought if I could create a virtual one...
[04:55] <hoho> guest278: I installed webcamstudio, but couldn't get it to work...
[04:56] <hoho> guest278: v412loopback might I suppose...
[04:56] <Viking667> isn't there a gstreamer loopback module too?
[04:57] <hoho> viking667: like a plugin that woudl permit a virtual webcam?
[05:03] <Viking667> possibly.
[05:03] <Viking667> might be a static picture, for example.
[05:03] <hoho> viking667: okay - are you thinking of something like this - https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback/wiki/Mplayer
[05:04] <Viking667> don't know, it was back in the days of 2010 when I last saw it.
[05:06] <Sachiru> Anyone use ZFS on ubuntu for production and manage to get it run stable?
[05:06] <Sachiru> How much RAM does your machine have?
[05:07] <inuyasha> 2 GB
[05:07] <Sachiru> On a machine that has ZFS?
[05:07] <Sachiru> Seriously?
[05:09] <RWOverdijk> Hey. I have a server with ubuntu 13.10, and wish to upgrade to 14.04. The machines, upon running do-release-upgrade say there's no new release found.  is the directory you're in
[05:16] <Beldar> RWOverdijk, You need a sudo with that command, do you have X
[05:16] <RWOverdijk> Beldar, No I don't need sudo for do-release-upgrade, it'll ask me for my password later on.
[05:16] <Ben64> yes, you do need sudo for it
[05:17] <RWOverdijk> But I found it.  It'll do it later on and ask for your password.
[05:18] <Beldar> RWOverdijk, Hmmm, in the words of eddy murphy as buckwheat "otay" ;)
[05:18] <RWOverdijk> I'm not lying. 23 servers agree with me.
[05:18] <ianorlin> unless you ssh in as root
[05:18] <RWOverdijk> I didn't.
[05:19] <RWOverdijk> I just run do-release-upgrade, and it runs.
[05:19] <reaper> ben64 as soon as i spaced the period at the end of the line of code it worked and turned blue/green
[05:19] <RWOverdijk> Then it asks for my password at some point.
[05:19] <Ben64> reaper: yeah but its not "a period" -- it represents the directory you're in.
[05:20] <reaper> and crap firefox still isnt seeing the stupid thing
[05:20] <RWOverdijk> Beldar, Ben64, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/spa/5fx2el5lql1lidy/wvwh9en_.png
[05:20] <RWOverdijk> Otay indeed. It was just my prompt setting. :p
[05:21] <Ben64> reaper: what are you trying to do
[05:21] <Beldar> RWOverdijk, just a sk for a password does not mean that is correct, but I'm not here to argue, honestly I don't really care, other than in bricking your setup.
[05:21] <Beldar> asking
[05:22] <reaper> Ben64install a previous version of jre specifically the 1.5.0 version
[05:22] <GJPMiningco> hey is there a way to enable the root account for login on ubuntu?
[05:22] <Ben64> reaper: sounds like a bad idea
[05:22] <Ben64> !root | GJPMiningco
[05:22] <MrBender22> GJPMiningco: yeah sudo su -
[05:22] <reaper> ben64 not for a plain shell thats just for teamspeak and has like 1gb of room lol
[05:22] <MrBender22> GJPMiningco: then passwd
[05:22] <RWOverdijk> Beldar, Look, I don't care either. I'm just telling you it does work, and that you're wrong. Just accept it and be happy that you now know one more thing.
[05:22] <Ben64> sudo su is bad practice, don't do that
[05:23] <Ben64> you should not be setting a root password either
[05:23] <Beldar> RWOverdijk, lol, yeah right dumkoff. ;)
[05:23] <RWOverdijk> Sure, I'm the domkop.
[05:23] <Beldar> I have forgotten more than you will ever know
[05:23] <MrBender22> GJPMiningco: since root now has a known password you can login directly as root
[05:23] <reaper> ben64 the shell needs to only run 3 things really lol teamspeak, the admin bot and remote connect for me
[05:23] <GJPMiningco> k
[05:24] <RWOverdijk> haha
[05:24] <RWOverdijk> I love nerds :p
[05:24] <Ben64> GJPMiningco: i'd advise against that, having sudo is for security, you'd never need to login as root
[05:25] <MrBender22> I don't remember if Ubuntu allows ssh logins from root but ya. Your trigger finger is your safety in this case.
[05:27] <reaper> Ben64 would i also possibly have to create a link in the firefox paths too?
[05:27] <Ben64> MrBender22: in the future please don't suggest that people set a root password
[05:29] <Guest278> I agree, that's pointless
[05:30] <Guest278> If you want to do many commands as root, just sudo su
[05:30] <Ben64> no. that is wrong
[05:30] <MrBender22> Guest278: You see what you've done?!
[05:31] <Ben64> "sudo -i" if you absolutely need a root shell, which is very rare
[05:31] <MrBender22> Ben64: you were helping me with the clonezilla business earlier right?
[05:32] <Ben64> earlier today? doubtful
[05:32] <Sachiru> So, anywoone with ZFS on Ubuntu?
[05:33] <Ben64> Sachiru: ask your real question and find out
[05:33] <Guest278> Ben64: why sudo -i rather than sudo su, what's the difference?
[05:33] <Sachiru> I already did
[05:33] <Sachiru> Ages ago
 Anyone use ZFS on ubuntu for production and manage to get it run stable?
 How much RAM does your machine have?
[05:34] <Ben64> Guest278: sets the environment properly. doing it other ways can cause you to be unable to login, among other problems
[05:34] <Guest278> oh, thanks
[05:34] <hoho> viking667: So I've been folling the instuctions at http://askubuntu.com/questions/139239/fake-a-webcam-using-a-video-loopback-device
[05:34] <Ben64> Sachiru: thats more of a poll. if you're having a problem, describe it in as much detail as possible
[05:35] <Sachiru> Not having a problem per se, planning on deploying Ubuntu server with two/three VMs on it, running ZFS as storage for VM disks
[05:35] <Sachiru> That's why I'm asking about RAM usage so that I know how much to spec on the server.
[05:36] <Ben64> then this is probably not the channel for you. this is for ubuntu support
[05:36] <hoho> viking667: but I can'T find the v4l2loopback source folder - any suggestions?
[05:36] <Guest278> Sachiru: http://superuser.com/questions/558748/zfs-on-linuxs-memory-requirement-for-a-non-fileserver-computer

[05:38] <grilo> eai
[05:38] <grilo> br?
[05:38] <Ben64> !br | grilo
[05:39] <MrBender22> Guest278: sudo su -  is sudo running su. the - sets env equal to a login
[05:40] <MrBender22> Guest278: where as sudo -i is sudo running the users login shell directly as if they had logged in. I really don't think there's a functional difference
[05:41] <Ben64> there isn't, but its a good habit to not use su :)
[05:41] <Ben64> and if you forget the last "-" then it's bad
[05:41] <hoho> Would anyone happen to know if source folders are in a particular location?
[05:43] <MrBender22> hoho: either /usr/local/src or /usr/src
[05:45] <hoho> mrbender22: thanks
[05:47] <Viking667> sorry, no
[05:57] <DreamPCs> Hey guys, hopefully this is a simple problem.
[05:58] <DreamPCs> I need to know how to set up printer sharing in ubuntu 12.04 via the terminal
[05:58] <DreamPCs> I'm using xbmcbuntu for a htpc setup and I would like to install a printer/fax machine there to network it.
[05:58] <DreamPCs> The printer works by default with Ubuntu (just tried it on a stand alone installation) but I don't know how to set up sharing from the terminal (via ssh)
[05:59] <DreamPCs> Any ideas?
[05:59] <MrBender22> DreamPCs: As in a Samba setup for Windows boxes?
[05:59] <DreamPCs> Yes
[05:59] <DreamPCs> Both Windows and Linux clients
[05:59] <DreamPCs> samba is already set up on the PC and all devices can see and interact with one another.
[06:00] <MrBender22> I can't say for a fax machine per se but sharing a printer is straightforward
[06:01] <DreamPCs> Yeah the fax would be stand alone. That's why I need it near the HTPC because that's where my phone line is. The hardware alone with handle the fax capabilities.
[06:01] <DreamPCs> So all I really need is the printer setup.
[06:01] <MrBender22> What is a htpc? As in a HA setup?
[06:02] <DreamPCs> home theatre PC  - It's a dell desktop sitting behind my television running xbmcbuntu
[06:02] <DreamPCs> So basically ubuntu 12.04 that autoboots XBMC (a media center front end)
[06:02] <MrBender22> gotchya ha good
[06:03] <MrBender22> DreamPCs: your windows boxes are XP era or 7?
[06:04] <DreamPCs> One PC is running 7 and the other 8
[06:04] <DreamPCs> homegroups have been disabled on both
[06:07] <MrBender22> DreamPCs: you'll need a [print$] share on your htpc with the printer drivers for both 7 and 8 in there. Something like https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_as_a_print_server will give you most of what you need
[06:09] <DreamPCs> Ok, I'm checking it out now.
[06:09] <DreamPCs> Thank you.
[06:13] <MrBender22> DreamPCs: When you are doing this build for XP since it's simpler and much more stable in samba. 7 and 8 will understand it fine.
[06:14] <DreamPCs> I'm sorry I don't understand what you're saying.
[06:45] <Macer> is there a way to add openvpn to the connection manager for VPNs?
[06:46] <Macer> ah ok. i guess you have to add the network-manager-openvpn plugin
[06:48] <skeamz> how do i move a folder with sudo privileges?
[06:50] <rvdv> skeamz: how can a folder have sudo privileges? OR you mean "how can I move with sudo privileges a folder?" But that would be a strange question too because you then just add sudo before the mv command
[06:54] <skeamz> i just want to move a folder to my www/html dir and my username doesnt have privlages
[06:54] <skeamz> but i think im getting there
[06:54] <skeamz> sudo cd /####/####/
[06:54] <skeamz> ?
[06:54] <skeamz> cp
[06:54] <skeamz> *
[06:55] <rathi> sudo mv ./this/place /that/place
[06:55] <Ben64> skeamz: cp is copy, mv is move
[06:55] <rathi> mv to move, first arguement is the thing you want to move, second is where you want to move it to
[06:56] <rvdv> skeamz: have a space between source and destination
[06:56] <skeamz> thnx ill give it a shot

[07:49] <ben14> question unanswered above though can someone help me
[07:50] <DreamPCs> Are you trying to mount a drive that is already shared on a network and already accesible by other users, or are you trying to mount a drive and make said drive available to other users? ben14
[07:52] <robin2> leave
[07:55] <ben14> DreamPCs: I am trying to mount the drive to /mnt/usb ( already made the folder ) using 'mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb' ( I am using raspberry pi by the way ). It mounts successfully, but cannot do anything to it unless I am root or use sudo
[07:56] <DreamPCs> What OS?
[07:56] <ben14> debian wheezy
[07:58] <ben14> I have usb drive connected to it and it is /dev/sda1 and it sucessfully mounted with the command above (i used sudo infront of it) but I cannot write to it unless I am root or using sudo
[07:59] <ben14> just wondering if there is something missing that I should put so it can be written by all users
[08:05] <humbag> i would make directories in it such as Media, User1 and then chmod them to be writeable
[08:14] <majod> is there any way i can improve usb speed? on windows i copy from my camera 9-10MB/s, on ubuntu only 6MB/s
[08:16] <someHuman> Hello!
[08:16] <mynameisrickert1> hey
[08:16] <someHuman> You guys know of the command ctrl + w right?
[08:17] <someHuman> Well, what I'd like to do is to apply  'always show on top' effect while my windows are in ctrl + w so that I can work on them side by side.
[08:18] <someHuman> That probably will make the texts small to read but I'll just make the terminal fonts bigger ;)
[08:18] <ServerSage> Hey Folks, in 14.04 I've set a static IP using the "Network Connections" GUI under Unity.  But, alas, it seems to be ignoring it and getting an IP using DHCP.  Am I missing something?

[08:21] <mynameisrickert1> chmod 775
[08:22] <llutz> skeamz: chmod o=rx dir/
[08:22] <erle-> x means list files in case of directories

[08:42] <ikonia> thecha: that's not "bash"
[08:43] <thecha> and start certain apps too
[08:43] <ikonia> thecha: that's the "mount" command
[08:43] <ikonia> that's not part of bash but a seperate binary called from bash
[08:43] <thecha> i cant use that in a bash script?

[08:45] <thecha> if i want to start a software with the same script  just "service [ame of software] restart "?
[08:45] <thecha> can i  use soemthing else instead of restart too?
[08:45] <ikonia> depends on how that service/application is launched
[08:45] <thecha> i see
[08:45] <morph-> /etc/init/d/serivcename
[08:46] <thecha> i see
[08:46] <thecha> just alling its name will manifest an instanc e of it

[09:13] <joelmo> what can i do about this ^ got a half-installed package that cant be removed or installed agaion
[09:13] <joelmo> boydoy you could ask in #networking
[09:14] <joelmo> I think they know
[09:16] <ikonia> joelmo: iptables ?
[09:16] <boydoy> yes. about networking..
[09:16] <ikonia> or "ufw" in ubuntu
[09:17] <boydoy> u have a link for that?
[09:17] <ikonia> to be honest, if you can't find basic documentation on it on the ubuntu site or the internet you're going to struggle to use it
[09:17] <tado> I have installed intel-linux-graphics-installer and ran it, should i do something to select the correct drivers? i had thought it would fix a graphic glitch that i have, but it didn't...
[09:17] <ainx> hello
[09:18] <ainx> unetbootin on ubuntu 14.04 can't work as well.. error message "dumb core", how to fix that?
[09:19] <Sachiru> Lubuntu is essentially Ubuntu with a different window manager right?
[09:19] <ainx> Sachiru, different desktop environment
[09:21] <Sachiru> Yes, but the core is still Ubuntu, right?
[09:21] <ikonia> Sachiru: main packages are the same but the desktop stack is different (although comes from the same repo)
[09:22] <ainx> Sachiru, only different on DE and WM, that it
[09:22] <Sachiru> Cool
[09:23] <Sachiru> I'd like to have my server have a lightweight GUI when I VNC into it
[09:29] <erase> test
[09:35] <lotuspsychje> is it a known issue to manually enable nm-applet on lubuntu?
[09:35] <tado> i have a graphic problem. when windows are maximised, i have to hover with the mouse pointer 1cm above what i want to click in order to select it, as if the graphic pointer was off range. does anyone have suggestions?
[09:41] <test1> hi
[09:47] <needed543> i am making a website that has users playlist, I havent done much database yet, what would be a good way to store a playlist
[09:51] <digi0ps> I have a  problem with my Ubuntu. Everytime I shutdown my computer ( whether Graphically or through  CLI ) it shutdown and restarts itself.
[09:51] <digi0ps> I have tried every command for shuttting it down. But still it wont!
[09:52] <wontoner_io> needed543: consider using a LAMP configuration, linux-apache-mysql-php.. The mysql would store the data in a database and PHP would call it up.
[09:52] <digi0ps> Please help please.
[09:52] <lotuspsychje> digi0ps: did you try halt -p
[09:52] <digi0ps> lotuspsychje, no. i will try it now.
[09:52] <lotuspsychje> digi0ps: wich ubuntu version is this on what device?
[09:53] <Kaapa> hey there - trying to install disper-indicator, but even after I add the ppa I can't get to the package
[09:53] <Kaapa> am I missing something obvious?
[09:53] <Kaapa> also, on 14.04, can't run "caffeine"
[09:53] <wontoner_io> needed543: This site may give you more information  http://lamphowto.com/
[09:54] <digi0ps> I am having Ubuntu 14.04 LTS besides my Windows 8.1 on my desktop ( config: Intel Haswell i5, 4gb ram, 500gb hdd, inbuilt intel hd graphics ).
[09:54] <lotuspsychje> digi0ps: and windows shutsdown normally?
[09:54] <needed543> wontoner_io: i have the server, mysql, and everything working
[09:54] <digi0ps> lotuspsychje, yes it does.
[09:54] <needed543> wontoner_io: i just want to know how the best way to store a playlist would be
[09:54] <digi0ps> its just few days since i installed ubuntu.
[09:55] <r0x> hi
[09:55] <needed543> like each playlist is a new table? or all  the playlists in 1 table
[09:55] <r0x> i have a little issue with ubuntu
[09:55] <wontoner_io> needed543: Try this tutorial.. http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/php/php13p2.html
[09:55] <lotuspsychje> !ask | r0x
[09:56] <needed543> wontoner_io: did you read what i said?
[09:56] <wontoner_io> needed543: It really depends on the design you choose. You could put playlists all in one table, or create a new table for each playlist.. Either is valid.
[09:56] <needed543> wontoner_io: either is valid
[09:56] <needed543> ?
[09:56] <needed543> is it ok for there to be MANY tables?
[09:56] <lotuspsychje> digi0ps: you have wakeup on LAN enabled in bios?
[09:56] <needed543> one of each user
[09:56] <wontoner_io> needed543: Yes.
[09:56] <r0x> it seems that exist that problem since ubuntu 10.XX. In few words, when i have a big load on the hdd, ubuntu shows me a writing error on the encrypted filesystem e log me out
[09:57] <needed543> wontoners_io: i have 10000 users, each with 10 playlists, its OK to have millions of tables?
[09:57] <digi0ps> lotuspsychje, i have not checked that. i will try the halt -p command and check the "wake up on Lan" in bios and tell you in few minutes.
[09:57] <r0x> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1047261
[09:58] <lotuspsychje> digi0ps: some handy stuff here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/132882/why-do-i-get-a-reboot-instead-of-a-shutdown
[09:58] <wontoner_io> needed543: Yes just make sure to configure your database to allow that. You shouldn't have a problem with the 'maximum tables' limit
[09:58] <needed543> wontoner_io: how do i keep track of all the playlists, do i have another table which has each playlist/table
[09:58] <wontoner_io> needed543
[09:58] <wontoner_io> needed543: That is a broad question. There are many ways to handle the task
[09:58] <needed543> im just new lol
[09:58] <needed543> dont know how to start this project
[09:59] <wontoner_io> needed543: You might consider sketching out several different approaches, and then do a review to see which works best
[09:59] <needed543> because it starts with storing the playlists
[09:59] <wontoner_io> needed543: I would recommend going through a tutorial or two, following the author's instructions.. this way you have fresh in your head the method for using the database
[09:59] <wontoner_io> needed543: Then once you are sure all the connections work, you can begin to construct your more complicated table scheme
[10:00] <needed543> wontoner_io: iv been thinking of one way which is there is a table with "song name', and "playlist" collumns,   the name is name and the playlist collumn is putting id of playlist,,, so you could query "Select * where playlist=
[10:00] <wontoner_io> needed543: Perhaps make a prototype which handles 100 users with 1 playlist each
[10:01] <needed543> wontoner_io: do you think that is a good route,
[10:01] <needed543> it would essentially create a HUGE database.
[10:01] <wontoner_io> needed543: If you want to talk with some database guru types, you can try asking over at #mysql
[10:01] <needed543> it wont let me talk there
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> !info ampache | needed543 maybe this can help?
[10:03] <acsoka> hi everyone
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> acsoka: welcome mate, what can we do for you
[10:03] <wontoner_io> needed543: You can also post on http://dba.stackexchange.com/ which is a forum for database administrators
[10:04] <acsoka> im trying to create multiple charts from one query in CDE but not having any luck
[10:04] <needed543> wontoner_io: thanks, ill definitely use the link
[10:04] <acsoka> i have a query with three measures, and would like to use the Chart component to display three small charts within the one component
[10:05] <acsoka> I set isMultiValued to True, but this just seems to sum the results
[10:05] <wontoner_io> needed543: Here is another forums for open source website development, specifically database related topics: http://forums.devshed.com/databases-28/
[10:06] <acsoka> lotuspsychje does that make sense?
[10:06] <wontoner_io> needed543: One step at a time, is my recommendation. Run through a tutorial or two, try to construct a prototype, and make some postings on the forums. I'm not sure why #mysql is no chat.. *shrugs*
[10:06] <lotuspsychje> acsoka: this goes over my head mate sorry :p
[10:07] <acsoka> no problem, thanks though. is there anyone here who may know about this?
[10:07] <wontoner_io> needed543: making sketches on paper, or in a layout program might help.. to keep your thinking clear
[10:08] <wontoner_io> It sounds like a reasonably complicated project
[10:09] <lotuspsychje> acsoka: join #cde :p
[10:09] <lotuspsychje> acsoka: maybe some experts awake there
[10:11] <needed543> wontoner_io: im posting on one of them right now, and yeah iv been trying on paper, iv been thinking about this project for some time and have used paper a couple times. Thanks for the links, the first one looks very good and im using it
[10:13] <wontoner_io> needed543: Getting a project started can be a struggle. If you connect with other people working with the same tools it can boost your confidence
[10:23] <ki7mt> Anyone know off hand which version the Debian Import comes from at the freeze?
[10:23] <megamansec> Hey guys, i'm trying to run "sudo -u megamansecfirefox -H /usr/bin/firefox $@" as a normal user, but I don't want to have to enter my password every time I run the command
[10:24] <megamansec> Is there any way to make it so I can sudo -u megamansecfirefox without using my password?
[10:24] <megamansec> I've tried adding "megamansec ALL=(megamansecfirefox) ALL" to /etc/sudoers, but to no avail.
[10:26] <veleno> hello. I’m having issues unmounting an NFS share. The umount completes with no errors, but i still see this : http://pastebin.com/RgTJUvRi . i’m on ubuntu 12.04 lts . Interestingly, cat /proc/mounts seems to be correctly in sync with the mount/umount operations
[10:29] <megamansec> Ah, had to be megamansec ALL=(megamansecfirefox) NOPASSWD: ALL
[10:44] <temp_joe> Hi all, Anyone know which iRC network this chat is on if I want to join on my client?
[10:45] <joe_dm> found it, freenode thanks.
[10:47] <Guest42494> Hey guys, I'm running 12.04 and my WiFi keeps dropping periodically. I searched around, and the two immediate solutions posted - namely to set Network Manager to ignore IPv6, as well as input the MAC Address of the router in the BSSID - don't work for me. I'm currently hardwired to the router. Any ideas?
[10:48] <gry> about wifi: please share your hardware details as well ('lspci' should mention your wifi card model)
[10:51] <Guest42494> gry - I've got a whole textfile full of details. Hang on, let me post a link.
[10:53] <Guest42494> gry - here you go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7528451/
[10:59] <Guest42494> gry - Have you read my pastebin?
[11:00] <gry> yes, I am unfamiliar with this hardware so I hope someone else would be able to help you out
[11:00] <lotuspsychje> !atheros | Guest42494
[11:01] <lotuspsychje> Guest42494: did you test multiple security WEP WPA2 to see if it drops you?
[11:02] <andybrine> Doe anyone know how to disable compiz on start?
[11:03] <Guest42494> lotuspsychje - On my laptop, I've set Wireless Security to WPA & WPA2 Personal.... the router's security setting is WPA2-PSK
[11:03] <peyam> Hi
[11:03] <Guest42494> gry - thanks anyway
[11:03] <lotuspsychje> Guest42494: did you check your additional driver list, for alternative drivers for your atheros?
[11:03] <peyam> When I hit the suspend button it goes black and it shows the log in page
[11:03] <joe_dm> andy, is there an init.d script you can disable?
[11:03] <peyam> how do I fix it?
[11:04] <andybrine> im not sure joe_dm
[11:04] <Guest42494> lotuspsychje - Haven't looked specifically for the drivers, but I've run update manager, and that should've downloaded any updates shouldn't it?
[11:05] <lotuspsychje> Guest42494: yes, but thats not always best working driver, needs some searching sometimes
 can you try doing ls /etc/init.d/ | grep com
[11:05] <lotuspsychje> andybrine: if you run unity, i would not remove compiz
[11:06] <lotuspsychje> andybrine: can you tell us why exactly you want to disable?
[11:06] <k1l> andybrine: why do you want to disable compiz?
[11:07] <andybrine> I restarted my compute earlier and got a black screen for my desktop
[11:07] <andybrine> i stopped compiz as it was using 300mb of space
[11:07] <k1l> andybrine: compiz is an important basis for the unity desktop. you cant disable that
[11:08] <Gallomimia> i'm having a problem with my fresh install not booting properly. i suspect the video card hasn't got proper drivers
[11:08] <Gallomimia> someone was helping me earlier and we were on "test if the liveCD works" and use nomodeset
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> Gallomimia: you can try the recoverymode from grub also failsafeX or fix broken packages from there
[11:10] <lotuspsychje> andybrine: your computer is heavy enough to run unity?
[11:11] <andybrine> k1l I killed the compiz and its still working perfectly
 looks like its just an init.d script. you should be able to run "update-rc.d compiz remove"
[11:11] <cerry> morning ^^/ talking about grub rescue I've a little problem over here. Friends laptop (UEFI, win8-ubuntu dual boot) was upgrading and now we're dropped in grub rescue shell. seems its looking for …/grub/i386-pc while we have a …/grub/x86_64 dir (I try to follow http://askubuntu.com/q/197833/64513(
[11:11] <k1l> andybrine: because it got restarted automatically
[11:12] <k1l> andybrine: unity is a compiz-plugin. so if no campiz is running you would not have a unity desktop at all
[11:12] <wols_> cerry: boot a 64bit livecd and reinstallg grub?
[11:12] <andybrine> ok I understand that
[11:12] <lotuspsychje> andybrine: you can tweak compiz settings with ccsm
[11:12] <k1l> joe_dm: that is just a bad advise. see what i explained earlier about compiz and unity
[11:12] <andybrine> when I killed the task it started running again
[11:13] <Timvde> Hi. I was here a few days ago, but received no answer :( Since upgrading to 14.04 from 13.10, my network card doesn't want to go in powersave mode anymore (iw dev wlan0 set power_save on -> command failed: Operation not supported (-95)) and consumes over 15W (more than the rest of my laptop together).
[11:13] <andybrine> i just have no idea why it is using soo much memory
[11:13] <andybrine> thanks everyone
[11:13] <joe_dm> k1l: I dunno what it even is, he asked if he could disable it on startup so I'm assuming he knows what he is doing. noted that its a bad idea.
[11:13] <cerry> wols_: sounds legit if not brasero and k3b would throw some wired errors (think last time i burned a cd/dvd was … in 1877?! so in short: burner not working T_T )
[11:13] <lotuspsychje> Timvde: maybe a clean install would fix this?
[11:14] <Timvde> lotuspsychje: Maybe, but I have quite a lot of my own software installed, so that would be a hassle :/ How could an upgrade break this?
 I don't think there's a new driver for my wifi card. Also, update manager did a kernel update. I guess I should probably restart the machine before continuing troubleshooting?
[11:14] <lotuspsychje> andybrine: you can try lubuntu 14.04 and see how smooth this works for you maybe
[11:14] <joe_dm> cerry: I have had good experiance with super grub boot cd to get back into the OS and then fix grub.
[11:14] <Timvde> It's a Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 btw
[11:15] <andybrine> lotuspsychje it was working perfectly before the update this morning
[11:15] <wols_> cerry: there are usb sticks you can boot from :)
[11:15] <andybrine> ubuntu base was updated and it seemed to have messed a few things up
[11:16] <Guest42494> Timvde - That's the same WiFi card as I have.. cc @lotuspsychje
[11:16] <Timvde> Guest42494: And powersave mode works for you?
[11:16] <craigbass1976> What's the latest trickery for getting mod_rewrite running?  I'm on saucy, and the usual suspects ( running a2enmod rewrite and editing /etc/apache2/sites-available/default) aren't cutting it.  Actually, there's no default, it's now 000-default
[11:16] <lotuspsychje> new atheros update could malfunction for your card
[11:17] <Guest42494> Timvde - Don't know about powersave, but WiFi keeps dropping. Maybe it inadvertently goes into powersave? I'm speculating
[11:17] <Timvde> Guest42494 / lotuspsychje: I found this topic: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/update-to-kernel-3-13-removed-ability-to-set-powersave-on-ar9462-ath9k-4175499101/ - Going to try that now, brb if I'm not back enough before ping timeout :)
[11:18] <craigbass1976> I've also noticed that /etc/init.d/network-manager is gone.  If I was on my home network, then shut the lid and went somewhere else, the laptop keeps trying to connect to my home network.  Restarting network-manager was a quick fix, but now I'm back to rebooting.
[11:19] <cerry> joe_dm, wols_ fair enough. USB stick will be second choice (have to find one ^^;) right now I'm fighting to get back in the UEFI (wont let me in anymore though i was there 2 min ago…) brb
[11:23] <andybrine> ok, I realised its not compiz. Since running updated this morning, its not showing my desktop
[11:24] <mago_> hello. I've changed my users shell to bash (using chsh). However, /bin/sh still points to dash, which causes problems for me. What is the ubuntu way to repoint /bin/sh to bash?
[11:24] <craigbass1976> cerry: I feel your pain.
[11:26] <Timvde> Well, that didn't work out as expected
[11:27] <Timvde> after # modprobe ath9k ps_enable=1, my wifi didn't want to connect at all until after a reboot
[11:27] <andybrine> In order to get my desktop wallpaper back, I have to reset unity
[11:27] <Timvde> Oh, made a typo in that config file, brb
[11:28] <andybrine> everything then returns to normal until I reboot
[11:29] <rigo_> hi. i had an xubuntu installed on my lenovo s205, i had to try out the windows 8.1 i didnt liked it. so i decided to get back to xubuntu. now after installing it the same way as before (from stick, next-next-finish) it does not boot up. as there were nothing on the hdd
[11:29] <rigo_> however there is. so if i start live from stick i can see the sda1-2-3 as efi, filesystem and swap area.
[11:30] <andybrine> I wondering if anyone can help, I have copied the errors that im receiving when I reset unity as Im not sure what I can do to fix it:http://pastebin.com/wHTZcdKB
[11:30] <rigo_> already tried this grub-install --root-directory=/x /dev/sda method. no luck.
[11:31] <rigo_> EM is: "grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of /cow.".
[11:31] <arlekin> hi all, anyone here who could give me an opinion about ubuntu phone ?
[11:32] <bazhang> !touch | arlekin
[11:33] <k1l> andybrine: its a video driver issue
[11:33] <arlekin> ubottu: i read about it on ubuntu pgae and was hping to get some opinions, i'll try #ubuntu-touch, thanks :)
[11:33] <k1l> andybrine: what video card is this and what driver (from where is that driver) is installed?
[11:33] <arlekin> oh wel...
[11:33] <andybrine> k1l ahh ok
[11:33] <andybrine> It was working before the update
[11:33] <k1l> andybrine: see : compiz (core) - Info: Unity is not supported by your hardware. Enabling software rendering instead (slow).
[11:34] <k1l> andybrine: see my questions^
[11:34] <andybrine> let me check
[11:36] <andybrine> I have an Intel Sandybridge graphic card
[11:36] <ogghi> hi guys, is there an easy way to add two scripts to the live (xfce) iso and launch them at boot? i would like to have a burn-in test automatically started to do hardware testing...
[11:38] <andybrine> there is nothing wrong with my hardware, I have been using this laptop for a long time now. I have had no problems before
[11:39] <k1l> andybrine: then see the dmesg and syslog to get to know what is going wrong there. does the guest-account work properly?
[11:39] <Guest42494> So, I was on here earlier, and had to log off and reset since update manager requested it. Here's my issue: I'm running 12.04 and my WiFi keeps dropping periodically. I searched around, and the two immediate solutions posted - namely to set Network Manager to ignore IPv6, as well as input the MAC Address of the router in the BSSID - don't work for me. Now hardwired to the router. Details: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7528451/ Any ide
[11:40] <andybrine> I need to check my guest account
[11:41] <Guest42494> Security mode on Laptop - WPA and WPA2 Personal, Mode on router: WPA2-PSK
[11:41] <andybrine> it was no doubt a problem with the update
[11:42] <Timvde> Guest42494: I fixed my problem btw :)
[11:42] <Guest42494> Timvde - Cool. What's the version of the driver you're using?
[11:43] <Timvde> Guest42494: Eh, good question. Let's see where I can find that information :x
[11:47] <Timvde> Guest42494: The only version information I can find just lists the kernel version
[11:47] <Timvde> driverversion=3.13.0-24-generic
[11:48] <Guest42494> Timvde : lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net - should give you the "Kernel driver in use"
[11:49] <Timvde> Guest42494: Kernel driver in use: ath9k
[11:49] <Timvde> That's all.
[11:49] <Timvde> Guest42494: But I've been using this laptop since 12.10 without any wifi problems up until now, which I fixed. You might consider an upgrade to 14.04?
[11:50] <andybrine> k1l thanks for your help
[11:51] <andybrine> I reset unity and icons, run another update and everything is working again
[11:51] <Guest42494> Timvde - I guess yeah.. this isn't even my laptop. Windows was bust on this one, so I'd made it usable with a quick LiveUSB installation of Precise (12.04). But the owner of the laptop wants Windows back lol.. Thanks for the suggestion
[11:51] <Guest42494> Timvde - out of interest, what did you need to do to fix it?
[11:52] <Guest42494> (The wifi power save i.e.)
[11:52] <Timvde> Guest42494: Creating /etc/modprobe.d/ath9kps.conf with contents "options ath9k ps_enable=1"
[11:52] <Timvde> Because who would want powersave mode out of the box? Herp derp.
[11:53] <rpshahi> I want dual boot installation Windows & and Ubuntu...
[11:53] <Guest42494> Timvde - Aah.. cool. Let me attempt that before I go in for 14.04/Windows. Care to share the exact commands? I don't want to do it via GUI and screw something up for lack of permissions/permanency.
[11:54] <Timvde> Guest42494: No command, just create the file with your favourite text editor (vim in my case, could be nano or gedit for you)
[11:54] <Timvde> And then reboot
[11:54] <Timvde> Guest42494: But I don't know if it's going to help for you, your problem is completely different.
[11:55] <Guest42494> Timvde - the thing is.. there isn't even an ath9kps.conf file..
[11:55] <Timvde> Guest42494: I created it too
[11:55] <Timvde> But it works :)
[11:55] <Guest42494> Timvde - Yeah, so I think simply the presence might help. Anyway, giving it a shot now
[11:56] <abhishek> hello
[11:58] <cerry_> craigbass1976 thank you <
[11:58] <cerry_> <3
[11:59] <Sachiru> What's the minimum RAM requirement for Ubuntu server?
[12:00] <cerry_> so my problem shifted (not sure if anyone can help, kinda OT) but I changed booting sequence in UEFI to get dropped in grub rescue shell (before it was botting in win8) however now I can't access uefi anymore just getting dropped in grub shell. it's a lenova ideapad and I press esc, delete, f1, f2… -sights-
[12:00] <DJones> !requirements | Sachiru This link should give you all the details, basically, 192Mb for server releases,
[12:01] <Sachiru> Hmm
[12:02] <Sachiru> I was thinking of using Ubuntu+KVM to virtualize other operating systems
[12:02] <Sachiru> A barebones install of Ubuntu + relevant drivers + KVM/VirtualBox should reasonably fit onto a 8GB USB Drive, right?
[12:02] <joe_dm> Sachiru: Depends what you plan on using it for and what hardware you have. don't think there is a real "minimum"
[12:03] <Sachiru> Hmm.
[12:03] <Sachiru> How much space does a base server install consume?
[12:03] <joe_dm> Sachiru: You should be able to fit the hypervisor on 8GB
[12:03] <Sachiru> Cool
[12:03] <joe_dm> Sachiru: Assuming you are going headless server.
[12:04] <Sachiru> Yep, headless
[12:04] <Sachiru> Would it be possible to put two USB drives into RAID (2-way mirror) for more reliability, then move swap to spinning disks later?
[12:04] <joe_dm> Sarchiru: Biggest thing is to make sure you CPU supports virtulization.
[12:05] <Sachiru> HDD serving as both VM storage and swap
[12:05] <Sachiru> And yes, CPU supports virtualization.
[12:05] <majod> whats the difference between killing, ending and stopping a process?
[12:06] <joe_dm> Sachiru: you could use UFS to mirror two USB drives during the OS install
[12:06] <joe_dm> majod: Killing is brutal while stopping is graceful
[12:06] <Sachiru> UFS?
[12:06] <majod> joe_dm: and ending?
[12:07] <joe_dm> Sachiru: In short, Yes you can, You configure this on the OS level during the install. not in Bios or anything like a hardware raid
[12:07] <Somethings_broke> What does this mean? # Software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name':  ':1.110'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages
[12:07] <Sachiru> Ok, cool
[12:07] <joe_dm> mojod: not sure about ending. but stopping usually runs a script that shuts it down and killing just basically rips it out
[12:10] <rpshahi> I want dual boot installation Windows & and Ubuntu..
[12:10] <joe_dm> majod: Don't quote me but I assume ending a process is just a generic way or saying that its stopped whether it be graceful or not.
[12:10] <Somethings_broke> I need help. What does this mean and whats the code to fix it? # ...Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine"...
[12:11] <joe_dm> rpshahi: was there a question in regards to hybrid OS ?
[12:11] <rigo_> well thank you. again.
[12:11] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: What was you doing when you get the error?
[12:12] <rpshahi> Actually i installed Windows and ubuntu both but ubuntu is not listed in windows bootloader..
[12:12] <Somethings_broke> @rpshahi - If you want Linux software Raid and Windows on the same drives you have to Bios Raid and install windows, Then install Ubuntu.
[12:13] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm I was trying to compile VMware modules.
[12:13] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm the first run crap
[12:13] <mexi_d3> rpshahi, This is 'working as intended' for windows bootloader. Recommended method is install Ubuntu second, not first.
[12:13] <rpshahi> I installed ubuntu second..
[12:14] <mexi_d3> rpshahi, Ubuntu's boot loader should detect both OS and allow choice. Oh I just got here and see you mentioned softraid.
[12:15] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke are you missing a dependancy maybe? Was there errors further up?
[12:15] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm Pastebin, hold on
[12:16] <joe_dm> rpshahi: Where is grub installed? Is it possible that you need to boot from a different device, Grub should override windows boot loader if you installed it second.
[12:16] <raggg> are the files in /usr/share/upstart/sessions used or is it only the ones in /etc/init?
[12:16] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm http://pastebin.com/YWTkMqqN\
[12:16] <N3sh108> test
[12:16] <N3sh108> Cool!
[12:17] <raggg> or rather is upstart meant to be running the services in /usr/share/upstart/session because atm it isnt :/
[12:17] <Gallomimia> hi N3sh108 welcome to #ubuntu
[12:17] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm not much more than that.
[12:18] <N3sh108> Hey guys, I got a question: how do I run a program once for each file matching the regex? Let's say I want to run the program 'convert' on all image_*.jpg; is there something like "convert image_*.jpg output_*.pdf" ? I want each file to be output with what was matched with *
[12:18] <N3sh108> Hey Gallomimia :)
[12:18] <Gallomimia> nevyn: still haven't gotten that system to run with raid5 crypt. got the install done. boots to a blackscreen for some reason..
[12:19] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke try installing this: sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-murrine
[12:19] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: Also seeing a thread which suggest it may need 32 bit: apt-get install --reinstall gtk2-engines-murrine:i386
[12:20] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm # gtk2-engines-murrine is already the newest version.
[12:20] <Somethings_broke> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 89 not upgraded.
[12:20] <joe_dm> raggg:if your talking about startup scripts it should be running from /etc/ini.t but you cant just add stuff in there.
[12:21] <joe_dm> raggg: are you trying to add a new script?
[12:21] <raggg> joe_dm: no, i have an indicator thats refusing to start in gnome fallback with i3wm, its startup script is in /usr/share/upstart/sessions
[12:22] <raggg> i can load the executable normally and it runs, but it wont load on login, and in this session initctl isnt recognising anything in that dir as a job
[12:22] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm # Already did that, but did it again, its working now. Maybe its because im on generic kernel now.
[12:22] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm # in contrast, I was on LowLatency
[12:22] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke you can try this too but not sure if its what you want: sudo echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/modules/' >> /etc/bash.bashrc
[12:22] <N3sh108> do I really need grep for such a simple pattern matching?
[12:23] <joe_dm> raggg: are you sure there isn't an init.d script which references /usr/share/upstart/sessions
[12:23] <NeoID> anyone familiar with mdadm? I've set a disk as failed, then removed it before removing it physically from the server. After inserting a new one with the same partition layout it began syncing... once it was done the disk showed up as a spare, but by then two other drives crashed... (raid 6). No I do not have enough drives to start the raid.. any hope that data is on the spare drive? is there a way to add it?
[12:23] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: Glad you got it working :) thats the main thing
[12:23] <raggg> joe_dm: no i
[12:23] <raggg> will check that out..
[12:24] <raggg> but joe_dm, that wouldnt make sense, init.d are boot time services i though
[12:24] <arcsky> if i add an interface in /etc/network/interfaces doesnt it get an ip applied when i do /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[12:25] <joe_dm> NeoID: If you lost more than two drives in a RAID6 then it's hopeless without expensive data recovery.
[12:25] <joe_dm> NeoID: Thats why people say "RAID is not backup" any chance the drives are not failed?
[12:25] <legion> Good morning all
[12:26] <NeoID> joe_dm, I'm not sure, it was only one drive that failed and I wanted to switch with a new one... so after adding a new one and it's stated to be a "spare", there's no data on it yet?
[12:26] <joe_dm> arcsky: If you setup the interfaces file correctly then yes, it should get applied on service networking restart
[12:27] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm # Have you solved any WiFi randomly falling asleep problems lately?
[12:27] <joe_dm> NeoID: Is it hardware RAID or software RAID, If it's hardware RAID I'd suggest booting into the RAID controller setup bios thing. and looking in there
[12:27] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: I mostly only use headless servers and since servers are basically all cable LAN I don't do much WiFi
[12:28] <NeoID> joe_dm, it's setup as a hba, the drives are listed there as far as I can tell
[12:28] <thomson1> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xnpmHA_9p8
[12:29] <joe_dm> NeoID: What type of controller, They all have vastly different interfaces so its hard to tell you what to look for.
[12:29] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm # if the problem with my wifi were a power saving... //Heavy sarcasm// "Feature"   ---> How would I disable it?
[12:29] <arcsky> joe_dm: check pls here http://pastebin.com/nqBH4i5M
[12:29] <NeoID> joe_dm, rocketraid 2720sgl
[12:30] <lorenz_> Does anybody know how to debug udev? It doesn't start for some reason.
[12:31] <joe_dm> NeoID: I've never used rocket raid sorry, There is usually somewhere you can check physical disk health, array status such as rebuilding, etc maybe just have a look around and see what you can find.
[12:31] <NeoID> ok :(
[12:31] <NeoID> it's so strange that two drives failes out of the blue
[12:31] <Somethings_broke> Qualcomm Atheros AR93xx # Keeps Disconnecting... randomly. Like its falling asleep, I have to reconnect all the time.
[12:32] <Somethings_broke> Any ideas?
[12:32] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: Not sure, Maybe check this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2004690
[12:32] <Ozux> Any one know how to change ethernet device name in 14.04 it's p4p1 instead of eth0 which ruins all firewall and interfaces configs!
[12:33] <joe_dm> NeoID: I recently had 1 drive fail, shortly after getting a new drive in another 2 failed, I just barely didn't lose everything. The issue is when one goes bad the others work overtime which can increase failure chance if they are already on the way out.
[12:33] <NeoID> yeah, I see the problem :/
[12:33] <Gallomimia> yeah, rebuilding a raid off a failing drive, worst thing for it
[12:33] <joe_dm> NeoID: especially when you do put in a new drive and they all have to work to rebuild the new drive. Multi drive failures happen way too often.
[12:34] <Gallomimia> especially when its still in the conditions that made the old one fail. ie heat, vibration
[12:34] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: Another one, looks different to your issue but worth a shot: http://askubuntu.com/questions/127243/cant-stay-connected-to-wi-fi
[12:35] <Kry> Hi
[12:36] <Kry> On a Virtualbox, I can't manage to switch the screen resolution to fit the screen
[12:36] <Somethings_broke> joe_dm # You work on servers? How can i reboot without rebooting?
[12:36] <Gallomimia> :)
[12:36] <Kry> (Also, sometimes it refuses let me write on the keyboard)
[12:38] <gazzwi86> can anyone recommend a mail server with a nice web interface I can create new accounts from?
[12:39] <gazzwi86> something with some spam protection etc
[12:39] <cerry> εὕρηκα! I solved the UEFI/win8/grub rescue problem
[12:40] <cerry> In the end it was a problem with the Bios settings, Boot mode: legacy support, boot priority: uefi first is the right setup to have a grub menu when booting \^^/ no live cd needed ^^;
[12:41] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: If you think of rebooting being that you restart all the services all at once, then yes, you can restart each service one at a time.
[12:41] <joe_dm> Somethings_broke: As for clearing RAM you will need to reboot however most the time you just need to restart a few services depending on what your doing.
[12:42] <raggg> joe_dm: it looks to me like upstart being used for stuff in /usr/share... yet, most of those things seems to have xdg autostart files too which is how they get started. can anyone confirm my assumption?
[12:43] <raggg> *isnt being used
[12:44] <joe_dm> raggg: is there anything in /etc/rc.local the only places upstart should run from are /etc/rc.local /etc/init.d and maybe cronjob. Anything else will likely be started from within one of these.
[12:44] <bsdbandit> good morning im trying to convert my startup script over to upstart not sure is this is right just wanted to see if someone can check out this script that i wrote and give me some poiters http://pastebin.com/T9Lv0C9Y
[12:45] <joe_dm> cerry: glad to hear you got it up and running :)
[12:45] <raggg> joe_dm: if upstart is controlling them, wouldnt 'sudo initctl list' show the jobs atleast?
[12:45] <joe_dm> raggg: never used that sorry.
[12:48] <raggg> joe_dm: np, thanks for help
[12:48] <raggg> in any case ive fixed my indicator problem and found a bug, how do I make someone aware of it?
[12:49] <joe_dm> raggg: Should be a bug report section in the forums

[12:52] <Kry> On a Virtualbox, I can't manage to switch the screen resolution to fit the screen
[12:52] <Kry> Can anyone help me?
[12:52] <Kry> I've already installed guest additions, but it doesn't do anything useful
[12:54] <joe_dm> Key: Are you setting the resolution insite the virtual machine?
[13:03] <geri> hi, i look for an mathgl package for ubuntu...
[13:04] <Pici> geri: 'mathgl' is in the repositories.
[13:05] <geri> is it mathgl2??
[13:05] <Pici> !info mathgl
[13:06] <Pici> Looks like version 2 to me.
[13:06] <geri> does it install header files and libs too?
[13:10] <geri> re
[13:11] <Pici> geri: likely.  See   apt-cache search mathgl  for a bunch of related packages.
[13:16] <geri> cant see mathgl2
[13:18] <geri> they dont list the version
[13:19] <Pici> geri: if you use apt-cache show mathgl   (or any other package name, it will tell you more details including the version)
[13:22] <ghaering> I need to have supervisord started after the cloud-init scripts (Ubuntu 12.04). supervisor is a "classic" (non-upstart) startup job. Anybody have an idea on how to force this order?
[13:23] <joe_dm> ghaering: yes, you can set the order using the update-rc.d
[13:24] <joe_dm> ghaering: as a general rule lower numbers start first. so you can first remove the cloud-init script with update-rc.d -f opensips remove
[13:24] <joe_dm> ghaering: then add it back with a lower number the supercisord such as update-rc.d opensips defaults 15
[13:25] <joe_dm> ghaering: or you could do the same with supercisord and add it back with a higher number, depending on your other scripts order, etc.
[13:26] <lmat> How do I make Unity let my mouse go from one screen to the other without hesitation ?
[13:27] <lmat> I think I normally move the mouse slowly enough that it always "catches", so I then sort of ram through and have to correct... really time-consuming.
[13:27] <ghaering> joe_dm: opensips is what? :)
[13:27] <MonkeyDust> lmat  try !ccsm or unity-tweak
[13:27] <lmat> MonkeyDust: OKay, I took a look at the Unity plugin in ccsm, I'll have a look at unity-tweak. Thanks
[13:27] <ghaering> My problem is that I do not know how the old-style stuff is started from within upstart.
[13:28] <joe_dm> ghaering: opensips is unrelated? Looks like a VOIP SIP thing
[13:28] <ghaering> AFAIK update-rc.d only affects rc-stlye scripts
[13:29] <ghaering> joe_dm: so I must make sure the rc stuff is started after a specific (or all) upstart jobs
[13:29] <freijon> hey guys. I once had that game but I can't remember its name. it was a two player game and you are a capital ship that could spawn different ships. bombers, fighters. the goal was to destroy the other capital ship. can anyone remember the name of that game?
[13:29] <lmat> I'm trying to install ffmpeg (to work with m4a), but there's no installation candidate. I see "As of Natty, Ubuntu has switched ... to the libav..." and libav doesn't have a candidate either.
[13:29] <lmat> What iz da codez ? ^_^
[13:30] <MonkeyDust> lmat  try avconv
[13:30] <fierman> so.. regarding the ubuntu-one serbice..
[13:30] <ghaering> joe_dm: apparently upstart starts things in parallel, so cloud-init and the rc scripts run in parallel
[13:30] <fierman> 1 june is deadline for sure?
[13:30] <lmat> MonkeyDust: that's right, thanks :D
[13:30] <lmat> oh... Unable to locate package avconv :'(
[13:30] <lmat> MonkeyDust: I remember using that program and it went really well...
[13:30] <lmat> oh!  libav-tools!
[13:31] <joe_dm> ghaering: not sure, maybe check this http://cuppster.com/2011/05/12/diy-node-js-server-on-amazon-ec2/

[13:34] <goeo_> hey
[13:34] <goeo_> so
[13:34] <goeo_> my laptop's battery once died
[13:34] <geri> goeo_, so what? ;)
[13:34] <goeo_> and i couldn't ever get back to my os
[13:35] <goeo_> i'm running from a live usb now
[13:35] <goeo_> my question is
[13:35] <MonkeyDust> goeo_  don't hit enter too often
[13:35] <goeo_> do i have to backup everything and then format a disk?
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> goeo_  backup is *always* a good idea
[13:36] <k1l> goeo_: what dies it say when you boot?
[13:36] <k1l> goeo_: are you sure the hdd is fine?
[13:37] <goeo_> my disks mount fine here from the live usb
[13:37] <goeo_> i guess somehow it killed my bootloader
[13:37] <k1l> then reinstall grub
[13:38] <goeo_> how do i do that?
[13:38] <k1l> but that could not be caused by a simple power down
[13:38] <goeo_> that's what i thought
[13:38] <freijon> I found the game. Its called "Pax Britannica"

[13:42] <Pici> STHGOM: What sort of problem?
[13:43] <bala_> test
[13:43] <STHGOM> kernel panic
[13:43] <STHGOM> trouble mounting i think
[13:44] <bala_> what type of trouble ..
[13:44] <goeo_> says GPT detected. Please create a BIOS-Boot partition (>1MB, unformatted filesystem, bios_grub flag). This can be performed via tools such as Gparted. Then try again.
[13:44] <k1l> STHGOM: could you please make a question with complete info in it? it is very hard to help you
[13:44] <goeo_> going that now
[13:44] <goeo_> doing*
[13:45] <STHGOM> before i updated it took 5 mintes to mount HD i think, went to initframs and afer awhile i just types exit
[13:45] <STHGOM> what do you need to know?
[13:45] <bala_> hai i am new ubuntu can explain abt xchat
[13:46] <STHGOM> bala_ xchat is irc client: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat

[13:51] <bala_> KINDA
[13:51] <bala_> TELL ABT LUBUNTU
[13:52] <k1l> !lubuntu | bala_
[13:52] <goeo_> so this is pretty weird
[13:52] <STHGOM> so i should go to #lubuntu?
[13:53] <goeo_> i try to make the partition that Boot-Repair asked for
[13:53] <k1l> STHGOM: you coulc ask here too
[13:53] <goeo_> but the file system turnes into fat32
[13:53] <goeo_> and Boot-Repair doesn't see it
[13:53] <bala_> wheather is possible to install vmware in ubuntu _kinda
[13:54] <k1l> STHGOM: but make clear what your issue and question is. and give error messages in a pastebin
[13:55] <k1l> !in | bala_ maybe that is easier for you to ask in your language
[13:55] <goeo_> k1l: any idea?
[13:55] <bala_> do u answer r not
[13:55] <STHGOM> i cant remember complete error
[13:56] <STHGOM> i will right it down brb
[14:03] <knob> Guys, n00b question.   I installed ubuntu Server.    Then I installed apache2.       I have the configuration file, one called   000-default       , yet I don't have the file called     default
[14:03] <knob> Is it the same thing?
[14:04] <somsip> knob: what version of apache? 2.4 now uses 000-default.conf rather than the old "default"
[14:04] <knob> somsip, ahh...
[14:04] <knob> I belive version 2.4, as I installed     apt-get install apache2
[14:05] <somsip> knob: ...old "default" under 2.2 Some slight changes to how the conf files are defined too, but easy enough to migrate. Lots of guides out there
[14:05] <STHGOM> what pastebin should i use?
[14:05] <somsip> !paste | STHGOM
[14:06] <knob> somsip, ok... checking that out now
[14:06] <knob> Thanks!

[14:49] <johndru> How can I turn on the fan in Ubuntu?
[14:50] <johndru> is there any fancontrol utilities?
[14:50] <jayaura> johndru, isnt it automatic ?
[14:50] <johndru> jayaura: yes but I need to turn it on now
[14:50] <genii> !info fancontrol
[14:50] <johndru> I downloaded this, genii
[14:50] <johndru> Loading configuration from /etc/fancontrol ...
[14:50] <johndru> Error: Can't read configuration file
[14:51] <belar0> Is there a way I can know if a user is visiting a directory owned by me?
[14:51] <johndru> It doesn't work, what do I do?
[14:51] <goeo_> anyone?
[14:51] <genii> johndru: Perhaps examine the configuration file.
[14:51] <jayaura> johndru, have you first setup lm-sensors ? sort of a first run for that package has to be done
[14:51] <genii> ( or create one if it is nonexistent)
[14:52] <johndru> genii: lemme create it
[14:52] <citrix> kaha hai aap
[14:52] <johndru> it says "Some mandatory settings missing, please check your config file!"
[14:52] <astropirate> hi guys
[14:53] <genii> Odd, lmsensors is not a depend of fancontrol
[14:53] <astropirate> i screwed up and created a user with useradd instead of adduser. I am trying to delete the user now, but am unable to do so.  http://pastie.org/pastes/9223352/text?key=m5e8oc8jihtyxkkohkfka
[14:54] <genii> astropirate: Typo there
[14:54] <jayaura> johndru, purge lmsensors and try reinstalling
[14:54] <astropirate> genii, haha i see it. thanks friend

[14:56] <noko> I want to use resolvers from DHCP

[14:56] <TJ-> noko: dnsmasq gets the resolvers, usually
[14:57] <astropirate> I am trying to create a new user and add it to the sudoers group. Google and ubuntu QA site tells me this is what i need to do:  adduser <username> sudo
[14:57] <astropirate> however, it tells me the user does not exist
[14:57] <jayaura> johndru, that doenst help. Tell what error you are getting
[14:57] <astropirate> :|   while i am trying to create it
[14:57] <jayaura> johndru, did you run lmsensors
[14:57] <johndru> lm-sensors: command not found
[14:57] <llutz> astropirate: sudo adduser username                  to create the user, then "sudo adduser username sudo"
[14:57] <johndru> lmsensors: command not found
[14:57] <jayaura> johndru, which simple means you didnt install lmsensors yet
[14:58] <astropirate> llutz, thank you!
[14:58] <jayaura> johndru, install it, and run it. It will ask to do a first time config I guess. Run that
[14:58] <johndru> I did install it, jayaura.
[14:58] <TJ-> johndru: "sudo sensors-detect"
[14:59] <jayaura> TJ-, yes, I missed the name :)

[15:01] <d0uglas> hi #ubuntu.. were I to use google's pagespeed service (the service where they sort of act as a reverse proxy, not mod_pagespeed on my own server) on my SSL site over which sensitive data passes, does Google get a plain view of visitor passwords and such, or as long as my origin server to Google is sending over SSL, they can't? And if they can't, are they still able to do their pagespeed magic to data they see as encrypted, or is that no longer possible? than
[15:01] <d0uglas> ks
[15:01] <TJ-> johndru: When you install "fancontrol" it would have shown (at a command line) " * Not starting fancontrol; run pwmconfig first"
[15:01] <johndru> /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
[15:03] <johndru> well, anybody?
[15:04] <TJ-> Well!
[15:05] <genii> d0uglas: That might be a better question for the #google channel
[15:05] <d0uglas> genii: okay i'll try there.. thanks
[15:08] <goeo_> a question,
[15:14] <goeo_> I selected encrypt my home directory while installing Ubuntu. Now I fail to boot from that installation and I'm trying to backup my files and I can't, anyway, my question is, if I succeed
[15:15] <goeo_> on booting that installation, will it be decrypted?
[15:16] <TJ-> goeo_: The user's password is used to generate an encryption wrapper around a key that decrypts the encrytpfs home, so as long as the user can log-in they'll have access to their files
[15:19] <fellayaboy> i would go to the openvpn channel but no one is answer. would anybody here know what are the proper iptables settings to allow traffic through openvpn.  i use to use these settings in previous ubuntu verisions but they dont seem to work with ubuntu 14.04.  i changed eth0 to p5pl & did another command to allow ipforward. http://pastie.org/9223395
[15:21] <goeo_> TJ-: can I simulate that here from the live USB
[15:21] <Tocho> I am new to Ubuntu and Linux. Where can I find video tutorials?
[15:21] <goeo_> I still know the password
[15:22] <TinCan_Assassin> So after updating with update manager recently, my computer is getting really bogged down, especially in Firefox. It did not do this before the most recent update push. Anything I can do to fix it?
[15:23] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Can you look at top and confirm firefox is consuming too many resources?  Maybe it's something else.
[15:23] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: If it is firefox, we can use about:memory to dig into it.
[15:23] <SchrodingersScat> TinCan_Assassin: htop is also nice
[15:23] <TJ-> goeo_: see "man ecryptfs-mount-private"  ... you can manually mount an encrypted FS
[15:23] <deadmund> Tocho: There is no official video tutorial for Ubuntu.  If you search youtube you'll find a lot!
[15:24] <deadmund> :(
[15:28] <TinCan_Assassin> deadmund: It has to be something else. it is doing it now with FF closed and in XChat, now. The machine just freezes up, to the point where it crashes.
[15:28] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Do you know how to open top?  Look at top and see what the top 1 or 2 processes are.  Are they consuming large amounts of CPU or RAM?
[15:29] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Also, sounds like maybe your harddrive / partition are full.
[15:29] <TinCan_Assassin> I don't know how to open top.
[15:30] <TinCan_Assassin> It's not in the dash
[15:30] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Do you know how to open a terminal?  Open a terminal and type "top" without quotes and press enter.  Press q to quit once it's running.
[15:30] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: It's a terminal program (not a GUI application), so it won't show up in the dashboard.
[15:30] <TinCan_Assassin> Ok, wait one
[15:30] <deadmund> sure
[15:32] <TinCan_Assassin> Ok, got it open, what am I looking for?
[15:32] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: What is the process listed at the top of the list.  How much CPU is it using, how much ram is it using?
[15:33] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Also, look at the second process, what is it and how much CPU / RAM ?
[15:33] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Is it like 1% or like 103%?
[15:33] <TinCan_Assassin> It goes back and forth between compiz and Xorg
[15:34] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: What are the CPU and Memory values of both?
[15:35] <deadmund> Xorg is always usually 1 - 10% because graphics are CPU intensive.
[15:38] <mistawright> I was trying to build a debian file that included a kernel for my beaglebone black and got this error when running the sript:
[15:38] <mistawright> ERROR: ld.so: object 'libfakeroot-sysv.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
[15:39] <mistawright> can anyone help me figure this out?
[15:39] <freijon> mistawright: sounds like an architecture mismatch
[15:40] <TinCan_Assassin> The numbers are jumping too much to pin downb
[15:40] <mistawright> freijon, the script to build the kernel works on my computer fine. It is indeed building for a arm device
[15:40] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: hit q and just read the last snapshot
[15:40] <TinCan_Assassin> And it's crashing now.
[15:41] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: haha, sounds fun.  Patience :)
[15:43] <TinCan_Assassin> Ok, compiz is using 4.0 CPU and 3.1 Mem and Xorg is using 3.3 cpu and 0.9 mem
[15:44] <deadmund> TinCan_Assassin: Those are low levels.  They are not causing a problem.  Is the partition / harddrive full ?  If there is no room to write like logs and stuff, the computer will not react well. Can you run df -h and see if any partitions are full? 100%) ?
[15:46] <brenux> What is kernel panic ? I got this bug right now, and i dont know why..
[15:47] <deadmund> brenux: Kernel panic can mean a lot of things but it basically means the kernel crashed (or could not continue running). The linux kernel is really well written so a kernel panic usually means something is wrong with some hardware.
[15:47] <deadmund> brenux: How frequently do you experience kernel panics?
[15:48] <brenux> Is the first time.
[15:48] <deadmund> brenux: It might just be a fluke (gamma ray from the sun!)
[15:50] <brenux> wtf.. well.. lets wait and see if it happen again..
[15:51] <deadmund> brenux: If it's rare (like less than once a month) ignore it.  If it's frequent, then start checking hardware.
[15:52] <brenux> deadmund, this error already happen to you?
[15:52] <bsdbandit> is there a way to roll back after patching ubuntu linux
[15:52] <deadmund> brenux: I've see kernel panics.  They're kind of generic.  One time I had to remove an old modem pci card or I would get a kernel panic every hour
[15:53] <deadmund> brenux: I've also seen the happen like 1 / year or something and I basically just ignore them then.
[15:53] <deadmund> To be honest, even once a year is kind of frequent.
[15:53] <brenux> deadmund, thx for the tip!
[15:54] <deadmund> brenux: sure
[15:56] <JerryP> Anyone recommend a better program than banshee for ipod management?
[15:57] <JerryP> I have been trying it and it doesn't seem to work
[15:58] <k1l> JerryP: itunes with wine seems to be an option
[15:59] <lualv> Hi all
[15:59] <k1l> JerryP: but apple doesnt want other programs to work with ipods/iphones so there is not that much hope of it.
[15:59] <lualv> is this channel destinated to ask for help?
[15:59] <TheHodge> hey folks, I'm trying to enable a passwordless sudo user to restart a service but nomatter what command I give them access to /usr/bin/service,/usr/sbin/service,/etc/init.d/*,/sbin/service*,/etc/init, it still asks for the password.. am I looking in the wrong directories
[15:59] <TheHodge> I don't want to have a fully open passwd less user
[16:01] <llutz> TheHodge: where in the sudoers files did you add your line? order of entries matters
[16:01] <TheHodge> I've added a group and my user is part of that group
[16:02] <TheHodge> I'll be honest at the moment the urls are in a random order of testing
[16:02] <TheHodge> folder names*
[16:02] <TheHodge> not urls
[16:03] <llutz> TheHodge:  man sudoers|less -p "multiple matches"
[16:03] <zzxc> Hey is there a way I can pipe the results of a query to both terminal and to a file?
[16:03] <llutz> zzxc: use tee
[16:04] <TheHodge> llutz: indeed and I've got it working on normal commands just fine, however I'm having trouble with access to a service
[16:04] <zzxc> llutz: Yeah I was trying that earlier without much luck I may have been using the incorrect syntax though. I'll check the man files again
[16:04] <lualv> I'm trying to install kernel developement headers, to compile an aplication that performs in-kernel forwarding. I have instaled linux-kernel-headers and kernel-package, using apt-get install, but I have a problem because I need the kernel headers to be in a specific path, in order to make the compilation work, and i don't know where are the files installed to make a link or a copy. Can anybody provide help with that?  regards!
[16:06] <lualv> I'm running ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[16:06] <llutz> zzxc:simple  example:  lspci | grep -i vga | tee /tmp/vga.txt ; cat /tmp/vga.txt
[16:08] <bobo69> lualv: This is a bit out of my depth, but  you can run dpkg -L to see a list of files installed by a package
[16:08] <zzxc> llutz TheHodge, Acutally I already got it to work. Issue was my test statement (ping) was just taking forever to resolve the IP.
[16:09] <lualv> thanks bobo69, I'm going to check
[16:09] <zzxc> llutz: ? why is the cat at the end of the statement, just to display the output again?
[16:09] <bobo69> lualv: for my machine it looks like linux-libc-dev was installed instead of linux-kernel-headers. When I asked dpkg to list me files for that package it listed a bunch of headers in /usr/include/linux
[16:10] <TJ-> lualv: "/usr/src/"
[16:11] <bobo69> lualv: But I'd try TJ's suggestion first as I've never had much luck mucking about iwth kernel headers
[16:11] <MonkeyDust> zzxc  yes, cat simply displays output
[16:11] <MonkeyDust> zzxc  like:    cat /etc/issue
[16:12] <zzxc> MonkeyDust: Yeah I know. I was just wondering why the cat was tacted onto the end of the command.
[16:12] <TJ-> lualv: The shell-script way to determine the current headers is "/usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`"
[16:13] <lualv> TJ-:  The problem is that I can't find a folder wihin /usr/src with the name of the version that I'm running, that I got with uname -r
[16:13] <lualv> TJ-:  /sr/src was my first option
[16:13] <zid> anyone experienced with ubuntu 14 LTS  dual boot on UEFI systems  W8.1  with multiple primary partitions exceeding 4 primary partitions?
[16:13] <zid> installing procedures. Any and all help / feedback much appreciated
[16:14] <TJ-> lualv: "apt-get install linux-headers"
[16:14] <ubuntu> Hello
[16:14] <ubuntu> Hola
[16:14] <ubuntu> Hiya
[16:14] <zid> already read a dozen different explanations online with different warnings.
[16:14] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu  it works, we see you
[16:14] <cfhowlett> ubuntu ask you ubuntu questions.
[16:14] <zid> just curious
[16:15] <Guest59664> ok
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> !uefi | zid start here
[16:15] <TJ-> zid: If you're using UEFI then the disk is GPT layout, which allows up to 128 partitions
[16:15] <zid> Thanks a bunch!
[16:15] <A_Man_Apart> a Question
[16:15] <lualv> TJ-: I used atp-get install linux-kernel-headers and apt-get install kernel-package. Is it the same?
[16:16] <zid> cool. I read many people warning that even the GRUB 2 version would result in bootchain errors still and lots of different other warnings about boot issues
[16:17] <zid> But I thought you had to install 14.0 LTS  with UEFI and safe boot disabled - does that affect the number of primary partitions allowed?
[16:17] <OerHeks> zid, windows 8 should use gpt to avoid this old issue
[16:18] <A_Man_Apart> how a cant get to the puppy room chat?
[16:18] <A_Man_Apart> sorry
[16:18] <A_Man_Apart> how i can
[16:18] <OerHeks> !alis
[16:18] <zid> The issues I read seemed to be from ubuntu dual boot installations from autumn to december 2013 last year, but I will check up on it. Thanks.
[16:18] <TJ-> lualv: No, it's not. "kernel-headers" is a virtual package which is "Provides:" by linux-libc-dev
[16:19] <OerHeks> zid the only solution is to remove one prim part, and make that space extended
[16:19] <lualv> TJ-: OK, let me check, thanks
[16:19] <BACKBOX> HELLO EVERYONE
[16:19] <zid> thanks again OerHeks
[16:20] <Korkel> What is the Dutch channel of Ubuntu?
[16:20] <A_Man_Apart> Hello
[16:20] <OerHeks> #ubuntu-nl-offtopic
[16:20] <OerHeks> err #ubuntu-nl
[16:21] <Korkel> Thank you OerHeks !
[16:22] <BACKBOX> plz help
[16:22] <Korkel> Does someone know if it possibole to show the close/minisize buttons on the right, and not the left?
[16:23] <Korkel> BACKBOX, what is the problem?
[16:23] <BACKBOX> how do i configure my firefox to work with the tor and vidalia?
[16:24] <Korkel> Not, you can download the TOR browser bundle.
[16:24] <OerHeks> !tor
[16:25] <Korkel> BACKBOX, https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-unix.html.en
[16:25] <BACKBOX> tor and vidalia seem to be working just fine.i have downloaded the browser bundle but my terminal says it cant locate the gar.z file
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: where did you download it to?
[16:25] <BACKBOX> the home folder under downloads
[16:26] <_1_David> :D
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: then run:   cd ~/Downloads    and try again
[16:26] <Nyons> If i use a PCIe 1x to 16x extender, would this affect my GPU performance?
[16:26] <TheHodge> exit
[16:26] <TheHodge> ha
[16:27] <k1l> Nyons: ##hardware could help you more on that topic
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> Nyons: the interface will run at the lowest speed device
[16:27] <Nyons> thank you
[16:27] <BACKBOX> plz be on hold as i try it
[16:27] <lualv> TJ-:  I have a message saying that I have to chose a specific file, and I don't Know  wich one is correct. I'm running 1204LTS  <IP_ADDRESS>.generic, and I can't find one fo this version.
[16:27] <Macer> does anybody here use openvpn? i can connect, ping local addresses 192.1.x but can't ping anything on the internet from the client
[16:27] <Macer> :/
[16:27] <Nyons> so it will be 1x?
[16:28] <Macer> server-bridge <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> <- that's what i'm using .. i am bridging
[16:28] <Macer> with tap devices
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> Nyons: yes
[16:28] <dcope> is there a way to "map" a remote ip to a lan ip?
[16:28] <dcope> could this be done in the hosts file?
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> lualv: <IP_ADDRESS>.generic is a Lucid Kernel
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> dcope: hosts translates names to IPs
[16:29] <dcope> ah
[16:29] <dcope> hrm. ActionParsnip, any other way to accomplish this then?
[16:29] <TJ-> lualv: without some context and the message you're referring to, I'm in the dark
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> dcope: you could make an SSH tunnel, you can then connect to the tunnel and it will securely transfer the data to the wan ip
[16:30] <BACKBOX> it says no such file or directory
[16:30] <dcope> that seems like a lot of work and i'd like something with less overhead
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> dcope: thats the only way I can think to do it, could ask in ##networking
[16:31] <BACKBOX> u knw wht thanks to the good souls for the help.i think imma download the windows version then install play on linux
[16:31] <dcope> ActionParsnip: will do, thanks
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: bit unecessary for so little gain
[16:32] <BACKBOX> ACTIONPARSNIP...I WANTED TO GO TO THE DEEP WORLD BRO
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> ok.....no idea what that is
[16:33] <lualv> ActionParsnip:  ActionParsnip: I have installed a lucid version, but I upgraded tu precise from command line. When I type lsb_release -a, it says I'm running 12.04, but when I tye uname -a i see 2.6.32-58 ??¿?¿?¿¿
[16:33] <BACKBOX> BUT BACKBOX IS NOT AS FRIENDLY AS PLAIN UBUNTU U KNW
[16:33] <k1l> BACKBOX: no need for caps in here, thanks
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> lualv: reboot and hold SHIFT, select the Precise kernel
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: backbox isnt supported here, this is Ubuntu support only
[16:34] <lualv> ActionParsnip:  may be a problem with grub?
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> lualv: sounds like you havent booted to the new kernel
[16:34] <BACKBOX> K what what.sit your self down pliz.i will contact u whn i need ur opinion alrght
[16:34] <cfhowlett> !attitude|BACKBOX
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: its not an opinion, its fact
[16:35] <lualv> ActionParsnip: let me check, many thanks
[16:35] <BACKBOX> ubottu thanks
[16:35] <cfhowlett> BACKBOX please dail back the attitude.  backbox is not supported.  fact.
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: on server:  irc.autistici.org    there is  #backbox   where your distribution is supported, not here
[16:36] <BACKBOX> almost similar to ubuntu so what r complaining for
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: its still not supported here
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> BACKBOX: none of the 'ubuntu based' distributions are supported here
[16:36] <cfhowlett> !flavor|BACKBOX   if it's not on this list, it's not supported here.  sorry.
[16:41] <backboxHELP> Hello everyone, can anyone help/explain to me how to add programs (tools) from another distro onto another? In my case Kali (or bugtraq) tools on backbox? Thanks
[16:42] <k1l> backboxHELP: again: neither backbox nor kali is supported in here. please ask in ##linux
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> backboxHELP: on server:  irc.autistici.org    there is  #backbox   where your distribution is supported, not here
[16:43] <backboxHELP> thank you
[16:43] <backboxHELP> another problem i'm getting is every time i put my laptop on suspend, it won't wake up.. It turns on and the power led turns on, but that's it. The screen is completely black (not even back lit). I was also encountering this problem with Ubuntu and all my drivers were up to date and legit
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> backboxHELP: same channel
[16:43] <k1l> backboxHELP: again: ask the supportchannel of the distribution you run. we dont know what they changed.
[16:46] <lualv> ActionParsnip: Shift does not work during boot load. It is a virtualbox  virtual machine, and it may be the reason. Can I do the same editing the grub config file?
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> lualv: you should still be able to bring up grub
[16:48] <chercheur> hello
[16:49] <chercheur> when can - i find kannel
[16:49] <Beldar> lualv, Make sure you click on that opening vbox machine and hitting the shift, I have found that clicking both one after the other like there is no tomorrow works.
[16:49] <k1l> !alis | chercheur
[16:50] <chercheur> who can hel me
[16:50] <oniMaker> how can I enable mcrypt for apache's php in ubuntu 14 ?
[16:51] <lualv> Beldar:  jajajaja I will try out this. :)
[16:51] <Beldar> lualv, click away and pound that shift, lol
[16:54] <lualv> beldar: playing videogames with both shiht keys works!
[16:55] <arteixo> jjj
[16:55] <lualv> beldar: Now it is booting with the new kernel for the first time and I have to check if everything is up&running
[16:57] <Beldar> lualv, Cool, vbox seems to have it's own agenda at time. ;)
[16:57] <Beldar> times* doh plural
[17:01] <shreezbot> Anyone have a link to some good instructions on getting KVM installed and working.
[17:01] <lualv> hi all:  Now I find the headers inside /usr/sec, as i was expecting. I appreciate very much your help
[17:01] <lualv> I mean /usr/src
[17:02] <compdoc> shreezbot, its pretty easy:  sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm virt-manager
[17:02] <compdoc> althogh this might be a little nicer:   sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm qemu-system virt-manager virt-viewer libvirt
[17:03] <shreezbot> compdoc, I think the problem I'm running into is that most instructions seem to assume you aren't installing on a headless server....
[17:03] <shreezbot> compdoc, I don't have access to the GUI, so I have to do everything form the command line
[17:03] <compdoc> shreezbot, then dont install virt-manager
[17:05] <compdoc> shreezbot, there isnt much to do to get it installed and working
[17:05] <compdoc> you just have to learn the networking part
[17:06] <shreezbot> Yea, I think I actually have it working, and I can even get a VM created and started, but I can't connect to it to install the OS...
[17:06] <compdoc> best to use a bridge, I think
[17:07] <compdoc> i like using two nics. one for the host, and one for the guests
[17:07] <goeo_> Tried Boot-Repair, log here, paste.ubuntu.com/7530468 , still can't boot.
[17:08] <goeo_> Any idea on what I should do?
[17:21] <SirMarky> Does anyone know how to control the AAC re-encoding of songs in Rhythmbox when they are sync'd to my iPod Classic?  What is the bitrate chosen by the program and how can I change it?
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> SirLagz: what are you encoding form-to?
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> from-to*
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> SirMarky: ^
[17:27] <SirMarky> hello
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> SirMarky: what are you encoding from-to?
[17:29] <tgm4883> Can anyone help with this error "ImportError: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1: undefined symbol: pcre_free_study"? Looking into it, it seems pcre_free_study should be available in libpcre3 > 8.20 (I've got 1:8.31-2), but I still get the error (on both 13.10 and 14.04)
