[16:52] <Ironwave> Hi, How can I run mysql?  e:sudo/etc/init.e/mysql start and d:sudo/etc/init.e/mysql start Both answer No such file or directory. whereis mysql mysql: /usr/bin/mysql/etc/mysql/usr/lib/ (and so on, thus I do have it on my machiene.)
[16:53] <mantazer> i updated ubuntu, when i get to login screen, when i enter my credentials, it becomes unresponsive. i just want to get to a terminal. how do?
[16:53] <mantazer> ctrl-alt-f1 doesnt work
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> Ironwave: you need a space after the word 'sudo'
[16:53] <mantazer> brings me to a black screen
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> Ironwave: sudo /etc/init.e/mysql start     not    sudo/etc/init.e/mysql start
[16:53] <topkek32juan> how do i monitor my cpu frequency
[16:53] <mantazer> f1-f6 does the same thing
[16:53] <mantazer> how to i boot into terminal
[16:53] <mantazer> ?
[16:54] <Ironwave> ActionParsnip: Ill check it, Thanks for giving the correct command.
[16:55] <ActionParsnip> mantazer: add the boot option "text"
[16:57] <Ironwave> ActionParsnip: It says its starting the database. When I invoke    service mysql status      it answers    Unknown job: mysql       Am I giving the command wrong?
[17:00] <redviper> Hi all, I am trying to install google earth on my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS but its not installing because ia32-libs package is not installed, where can I download it from?
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> redviper: how are you installing it?
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> redviper: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth#Using_make-googleearth-package
[17:03] <redviper> ActionParsnip: I downloaded the google package off the google earth site, a .deb. It's telling me I need ia32-libs in the software centre?
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> redviper: there is a package in the ubuntu repos to make the package for yoiu......
[17:05] <redviper> ActionParsnip: That's by doing it with the site you gave me?
[17:05] <TJ-> Last time I tested GoogleEarth, it fails on both 32-bit and 64-bit
[17:06] <redviper> I got it working on Mint 14
[17:07] <nemo> So. Just wondering... This is like the second computer I've upgraded to 14.04 from 13.10 that has run into errors on upgrade that completely blow up
[17:07] <talin1> Does anyone have any hints as to how the F#¤% to get a F&!"(/# lenovo laptop to boot GRUB and not Windows in UEFI mode?
[17:07] <nemo> like, dpkg complaining that python 2.7 doesn't exist, samba install failing...
[17:07] <nemo> Has anyone else noticed a higher than usual level of upgrade SNAFUs with 14.04 ?
[17:07] <talin1> im starting to loose my mind here, been trying umptheen different solutions in the last 24 hours
[17:08] <nemo> btw, by 2nd commputer, that's 2nd I've tried period, so, so far every upgrade has failed
[17:08] <nemo> dpkg fix time, but still…
[17:08] <TJ-> talin1: Does Ubuntu have an entry in the system's UEFI boot menu?
[17:09] <xangua> nemo: did you have third party repositories in your 13.10 install before distro upgrade¿
[17:09] <nemo> xangua: yep. MATE, which is now official I believe.
[17:09] <nemo> on both machines
[17:09] <nemo> xangua: but the errors don't seem to be linked to the desktop install
[17:09] <xangua> nemo: next time remove all third party repositories then
[17:09] <nemo> I mean, MATE doesn't mess around with samba or python
[17:10] <nemo> xangua: well, the update does disable repos…
[17:10] <talin1> TJ-: the UEFI/BIOS does not have any detailed view
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> redviper: yes, there is a package that wil build you a deb, you can then install that
[17:10] <TJ-> redviper: I've just installed the latest 32-bit Google Earth, on 64-bit Trusty, and it works so far... even manages to render its client area - which was the bug last time I checked
[17:10] <talin1> TJ-: but bcdedit /enum firmware from windows shows an entry
[17:11] <talin1> TJ-: for some reason that entry is not shown when trying "boot from other device" in winpe
[17:11] <TJ-> talin1: Shows an entry for Ubuntu? But you don't see that at the system's boot menu choice ?
[17:11] <talin1> TJ-: the bios lets me choose which drives to have in my boot order. period
[17:12] <redviper> ActionParsnip: I'm not too sure what I am doing, putting in the commands in the terminal and following the steps?
[17:12] <TJ-> talin1: This is strange - I was helping someone else earlier this week and they had the same issue, efibootmgr showed the Ubuntu boot entry was there and set as default but the firmware refused to show it or use it
[17:12] <talin1> TJ-: is efibootmgr installed during 14.04 server install
[17:12] <talin1> =
[17:12] <TJ-> talin1: For UEFI, alongside the drives, there should be entries for each installed operating system that is UEFI aware, so you should have "Windows" and "Ubuntu"
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> redviper: yes those are terminal commands.
[17:12] <buharin> hello guys if I installed some app with make install hwo I can remove it just remove folders?
[17:12] <buharin> directories mean
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> redviper: you will then get a deb and you can instal that
[17:13] <nemo> TJ-: so, I know very little about UEFI, but could that be related to a locked bootloader, one that requires signing?
[17:13] <nemo> TJ-: 'cause.. sometimes BIOS let you turn that off.
[17:13] <redviper> ActionParsnip: Does it make a difference as I already downloaded a .deb file from the Google Earth site?
[17:13] <TJ-> talin1: efibootmgr is a core part of an EFI install, it comes in with grub-efi, and it is the interface the OS has with the UEFI firmware for adding/removing/modifying boot entries that the UEFI firmware keeps in its Non-volatile RAM
[17:14] <talin1> TJ-: i could try a re-re-re-re-re-re-re-reinstall and see what efibootmgr says before i reboot
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> redviper: no, as the commands will do what is needed
[17:14] <TJ-> nemo It could be, but in theory, no, since the Ubuntu/GRUB EFI boot-loader is signed by the Microsoft signing key that is shipped in "Windows 8 ready" PCs
[17:14] <talin1> TJ-: is it available from the boot medium?
[17:15] <talin1> TJ-: the CD boots just fine in UEFI mode both with and without secure boot enabled
[17:15] <redviper> ActionParsnip: okay well I have put in the commands and it is now downloading the package.
[17:15] <talin1> TJ-: but is efibootmgr available from the install medium?
[17:15] <sanu> hai
[17:16] <TJ-> talin1: If the installer did boot in EFI mode, then yes. You can quickly check which mode the OS booted from by doing "ls /sys/firmware/efi/" and making sure there is the directory "efivars"
[17:16] <talin1> TJ-: it is not availabe pre "Install to disk"
[17:16] <redviper> ActionParsnip: Point 5 says I must Install the created .deb package, where from?
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> redviper: always check for documentation like that if you are unsure.
[17:16] <TJ-> talin1: and you can read the current boot-menu contents with "sudo efibootmgr -v"
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> redviper: i believe it is generated where your terminal is now. Run:   ls
[17:17] <TJ-> talin1: If the installer boots in EFI mode, you can install the package with "sudo apt-get install efibootmgr"
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> redviper: do you see the file?
[17:17] <TJ-> redviper: Are you using Trusty 64-bit? If you are you can simply download the 32-bit .deb file directly from Google - that works (on my system at least) - I just did that to test.
[17:18] <talin1> TJ-: ill try
[17:18] <talin1> thanks
[17:18] <redviper> ActionParsnip, It's still downloading, slow internet - 9kbps
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> redviper: and you wnat to run google earth??
[17:19] <lordjancso> hi, i'm a beginner ubuntu user and i have some problem with thunderbird... if i start it from dash, i can not create profile, because thunderbird can not write into my /home directory. if i as administrator, i can connect to my mail accounts, but i can not run it in background and there is no indicator in top right corner... how should i use thunderbird correctly?
[17:19] <redviper> TJ- :I'm using Trusty 64 bit on a 32 computer if I am not wrong
[17:20] <TJ-> redviper: No, you're not - that is impossible :)
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> redviper: you cannot install 64bit OS on a 32bit CPU
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> redviper: you can however run a 32bit OS on a 64bit CPU
[17:20] <redviper> ActionParsnip, Yeah, internet is being a pain now. It has its moments\
[17:20] <Eduardo_> If I delete the partitions with Disk Utility, can I undo this action?
[17:21] <redviper> ActionParsnip, Well I am running a 64 bit operating system of this laptop
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Eduardo_: you can recreate the partition and fsck it, theer is a command for extending partitions but I forget its name, might make it ok
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Eduardo_: resize2fs
[17:21] <belkinsa> Does the Remote Desktop from Guest Account using Ubuntu SSO work on 14.04.1?
[17:21] <redviper> TJ-, Okay then perhaps this machine is a 64 bit, struggles with Trusty
[17:22] <Eduardo_> ActionParsnip: But, I delete my Windows partitios jajaja
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> redviper: try using LXDE, its a lot lighter and will give a smoother desktop experience
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> Eduardo_: then I have no idea. I'd just break out the backups
[17:24] <Eduardo_> I men, accidentalli delete all my HDD :S
[17:25] <redviper> ActionParsnip, Have not heard of it, was thinking of Debian. I need a stable system, user friendly, good hardware/software support and Customizable. I'm struggling a bit with Ubuntu.
[17:25] <julian-delphiki> Eduardo_: sounds like you need to restore from a backup then
[17:25] <Eduardo_> jajaja julian-delphiki I have not backup
[17:26] <julian-delphiki> Eduardo_: sounds like it's time to reinstall and forget all that data then :)
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> redviper: its a desktop environment, you can run LXDE in Debian if you like
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> redviper: it replaces the Gnome + Compiz you have now, it uses LXDE and OpenBox by default
[17:28] <TJ-> redviper: "uname -p" will tell you which architecture the machine is, slowness on GUI systems is generally caused by the desktop environment demanding a good 3D accelerated GPU with drivers - default Ubuntu with the Unity DE is one-such, and makes use of lots of fancy transitions and blends that unless accelerated in hardware, make the machine feel slow and unresponsive
[17:28] <Eduardo_> forget windows, jajaja, julian-delphiki tks
[17:29] <Eduardo_> anyway its only Windows
[17:31] <redviper> ActionParsnip, You know that is a main problem with my Ubuntu, but whats also annoying me is that it is so buggy. I also don't have the knowledge to fix it and someone would get frustrated trying to help.
[17:32] <redviper> TJ-, I will check when this download is finished, its taking forever.
[17:32] <sanu> hai\
[17:36] <zputrle> hi
[17:43] <redviper> ActionParsnip, I did try installing a .bin for Google and the .bin did not want to open or run?\
[17:45] <redviper> ActionParsnip, This internet is moving at snails, I have the .deb file already. Is there no other way I can get the ia32-libs package to then run the .deb?
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> redviper: its deprecated because your OS is multiarch
[17:46] <redviper> ActionParsnip, Ah multiarch?
[17:46] <LarsN> is there a script/utility that generates preseed configurations based on an existing system?
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> redviper: yes, you can run 32bit OS in 64bit Ubuntu
[17:47] <redviper> ActionParsnip, But, what are the down sides?
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> redviper: you will need all the 32bit deps for the 32bit apps you install, so drive space
[17:51] <redviper> ActionParsnip, The system weight is not the all bugging thing, my main issue is the bugs and not being able to customize my OS. Ubuntu used to be like that with compiz
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> redviper: I cant comment there, I dont use Compiz
[17:53] <cliov6> ciao ragazzi
[17:53] <cliov6> !list
[17:54] <redviper> ActionParsnip, I don't claim to use it, I used to use it but its not serious. Unity is stiff right?
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> redviper: Unity is a plugin for Compiz
[17:54] <Dickens> if by stiff you mean crappy... yes
[17:56] <redviper> ActionParsnip, yeah and I don't know enough. Still fighting with this package.
[18:01] <redviper> ActionParsnip, What do I do exactly when I get to the 3rd point of the site you gave me?
[18:05] <Dickens> one thing that would be nice in Nautilus is the ability to copy and paste the current directory path
[18:05] <Dickens> from and address bar in the window
[18:06] <OERIAS> Ubuntu repos fucked up everything!
[18:06] <IdleOne> OERIAS: No swearing please
[18:06] <Dickens> for example  in the newer versions of windows there are links the be able to click back a directory (at the top of the window where the address bar is)... if you double click this it shows the entire path which you can copy and paste
[18:06] <v2zz> hi! anybody aware of skype connection problem? 'can't establish connection' for about 1hour
[18:06] <v2zz> what's that shit?
[18:06] <Dickens> !language v2zz
[18:06] <v2zz> sorry
[18:07] <Dickens> no problems here
[18:07] <v2zz> !language
[18:11] <sakhre> Why when I do $ modprobe vboxdrv  I get a  FATAL: Module vboxdrv not found.  ?
[18:15] <daftykins> sakhre: hasn't been built for your running kernel i suspect.
[18:18] <inv3nt0r> I'm attempting to upgrade my Ubuntu 12 server to Ubuntu 14 using the do-release-upgrade method, and getting 404 errors for the 'Upgrade tool signature' and the 'Upgrade tool'
[18:18] <inv3nt0r> Any thoughts
[18:18] <inv3nt0r> ?
[18:20] <Artemis3> inv3nt0r, i'd say change the mirror
[18:21] <Squarepy> inv3nt0r, unrelated, but for reliability I would use a home partition and update underneath
[18:23] <inv3nt0r> Squarespy: The server is not super high value, it is basically a NAS box for the office that we can do without for short periods of time
[18:23] <inv3nt0r> Artemis3: So you recommend I change repositories?
[18:23] <sakhre> daftykins, what can I do?
[18:24] <Artemis3> inv3nt0r, yes, i would try main archive.ubuntu.com or such
[18:24] <inv3nt0r> Artemis3: Something like http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu should do?
[18:24] <daftykins> sakhre: how did you install virtualbox?
[18:24] <daftykins> sakhre: also, which version of ubuntu is this?
[18:24] <Artemis3> try and see inv3nt0r
[18:24] <sakhre> daftykins, software center. ubuntu 12.04. i updated the kernel and it stopped wroking.
[18:25] <sakhre> (virtual bx)
[18:25] <scumdogmoney> Hi
[18:27] <daftykins> sakhre: try "ls /var/lib/initramfs-tools | sudo xargs -n1 /usr/lib/dkms/dkms_autoinstaller start"
[18:27] <scumdogmoney> daftykins: Yo!
[18:27] <daftykins> hello.
[18:28] <daftykins> scumdogmoney: do you have a support question?
[18:28] <scumdogmoney> Is legalizing marijuana a good thing daftykins
[18:28] <ldlework> get. out.
[18:29] <coventry`> sakhre: Try reinstalling virtualbox-dkms.  If that doesn't work, you might try asking on #vbox.  They will probably scold you if you're not using the official virtualbox packages, they deal with this kind of problem often.
[18:29] <rww> scumdogmoney: let's stick to Ubuntu support, please.
[18:29] <coventry`> s/they deal/but they deal/
[18:30] <sakhre> problem occurred while installing software. package: virtualbox-dkms
[18:30] <daftykins> coventry`: there's no need to respond again to someone i already have done.
[18:30] <daftykins> sakhre: did you run my suggestion yet?
[18:30] <sakhre> daftykins, yes
[18:30] <daftykins> and?
[18:30] <daftykins> did you see it regenerate modules?
[18:31] <coventry`> daftykins: Sorry, read things out of order.
[18:31] <sakhre> daftykins, yes, but an error window popped up ^
[18:31] <daftykins> sakhre: oh so that error came from that command, not coventry`'s suggestion
[18:32] <daftykins> sakhre: in a terminal can you run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install virtualbox-dkms" and then pastebin the output to share to us via paste.ubuntu.com ?
[18:33] <delt> Hello
[18:33] <delt> what is the command that pops up the "software updates" window periodicallyÃ?
[18:33] <delt> ie. how can i make it appear right now?
[18:34] <sakhre> daftykins, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7926302/
[18:34] <redviper> Where do I find and download ia32-libs package to install?
[18:35] <rww> redviper: You don't. Modern Ubuntu releases use multiarch instead, where you identify which library/ies you actually need and then install the i386 version of them
[18:36] <daftykins> sakhre: can you now do "dpkg -l | grep virtualbox" please
[18:36] <redviper> rww: Well how do I do that then as I need that package, there is a dependency on my OS for that file
[18:36] <zacg> I am using ubuntu 14.04 lts as a guest os inside virtualbox. After a recent update I can no longer use virtual boxes auto-resize guest display feature, it is disabled in the view menu. I have tried reinstalling guest additions but that didn't fix it. Any ideas?
[18:36] <rww> redviper: what are you trying to install?
[18:36] <sakhre> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7926316/
[18:37] <redviper> rww: Google Earth on a 64 bit OS. I don't quite know what to do or how to do it
[18:37] <daftykins> zacg: that'd be virtualbox support, not us so much
[18:37] <Milton> Hi, could someone help me?
[18:37] <daftykins> Milton: ask a question first
[18:37] <daftykins> sakhre: try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall virtualbox*"
[18:37] <Milton> My Nokia Lumia 520 changed file-permissions on my MicroSDHC to read-only filesystem somehow. After digging a lot of forums I found that this is typical Windowsoid, and even that I found for Linux is not helpful for me. I formatted SD on Lumia, but still have WPSystem folder, in which I got WPSettings.dat. Unable to cut them, and to paste something over there. Of course, using GParted I see "Unable to format, read-only filesystem".
[18:37] <delt> what is the command that pops up the "software updates" window periodically? ie. how can i make it appear right now?
[18:38] <coventry`> delt: Try update-manager.
[18:39] <delt> coventry`: thanks
[18:39] <sakhre> daftykins, * No suitable module for running kernel found [fail]
[18:40] <daftykins> Milton: plug the phone in via USB, *after* unlocking the screen and transfer files that way?
[18:41] <redviper> rww: ?
[18:41] <Milton> While on USB it is failed to mount. Using card-reader
[18:41] <daftykins> Milton: you don't mount, it should use MTP automatically
[18:41] <rww> redviper: sorry, got distracted. one sec.
[18:42] <redviper> rww: No problem
[18:42] <daftykins> sakhre: try "ls /usr/src/linux-headers-* -d | sed -e 's/.*linux-headers-//' | \ sort -V | tac | sudo xargs -n1 /usr/lib/dkms/dkms_autoinstaller start

[18:43] <daftykins> Pici: i'm cheating pasting from askubuntu ;_;
[18:43] <Milton> daftykins:  while plugging via USB, a loading circle appears, then stops moving and freezing my file manager until unplugging
[18:43] <Pici> daftykins: awww
[18:43] <rww> redviper: download the 32-bit package instead of the 64-bit one, and use multiarch
[18:43] <wakan> #ubuntu-fr
[18:43] <ardan_> uh,, so if i run 'free -g' the integer under Mem: total is the total RAM my computer has?
[18:43] <rww> redviper: it may install the 32-bit depends automatically when you install the 32-bit version, I can't remember
[18:43] <daftykins> Milton: what distro, version and desktop is that with? or, what file manager? 0o
[18:43] <rww> ardan_: yes, minus any used for e.g. video card shared memory
[18:44] <daftykins> ardan_: that shows 0's for me :D free -m works however
[18:44] <daftykins> (in a VM here though)
[18:44] <redviper> rww: So its worth the try, from the official Google Earth site?
[18:44] <rww> redviper: with the 32-bit version, yes. the 64-bit version is not properly packaged for current Ubuntu
 Xubuntu 14.04, Thunar is my favourite, Dell Inspiron
[18:44] <ardan_> damn, but that means my server has 5 GB free, but i'm on  VPS, and am limitied to 500ish MB.
[18:45] <redviper> rww okay I will try now, internet is slow
[18:45] <daftykins> Milton: i don't think that has MTP support built in
[18:45] <ardan_> how the hell do i use swap memory on a vps ?
[18:46] <daftykins> ardan_: talk to your provider
[18:46] <ardan_> they are gointg to tell me to upgrade my account for $20 a month!
[18:46] <daftykins> to answer one question?
[18:46] <daftykins> sounds like you need to change provider.
[18:46] <ardan_> no, i need to increase the available ram i have.
[18:46] <ikonia> then buy more ram
[18:47] <ardan_> sounds like a waste of money for 1 task.
[18:47] <Milton> daftykins: in the past I'd installed gmtp manually, but actually not needed it. Everything was loading just fine
[18:47] <ardan_> eh, i'll figure something out.
[18:47] <sakhre> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7926405/
[18:47] <redviper> rww: Thanks, I will give it a go with the 32 bit a go
[18:48] <Milton> WinPhone? It always does something without my help
[18:48] <daftykins> sakhre: ok, for some reason your module compilation is failing... i'd direct you to virtualbox's channel now
[18:48] <sakhre> daftykins, ok ty
[18:49] <indn1234> testing IRC in Pidgin...
[18:49] <ikonia> indn1234: it works
[18:49] <daftykins> indn1234: do so in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[18:49] <indn1234> daftykins: yeah sorry.
[18:50] <Milton> daftykins: thank ye, gonna find answers on the forum. The topic is not for chat
[18:51] <daftykins> Milton: good luck
[18:57] <Milton> daftykins: plugged after unlocking the screen. Works just fine:)

[18:57] <daftykins> i've been solving a lot of windows phone woes through that of late
[18:59] <Lartza> Does rsyncing to a remote server not need any server running on the receiving end?
[18:59] <daftykins> depends how you access it
[19:00] <daftykins> SSH, yes, samba share - yes
[19:00] <daftykins> but not a representation of rsync, no
[19:00] <TrueNhero> hi, i have a problem about one partion ext4 that automount but read only
[19:01] <zCoder> Hi. Can someone please help me out? I cant seem to get my php mail to work? seems like postfix is installed in listening to port 25   i have sent test emails via mail () function in php and nothing is coming through. Any ideas?
[19:01] <daftykins> zCoder: #ubuntu-server would be more relevant, as would a postfix channel if it exists
[19:01] <ikonia> zCoder: what do the postfix logs say
[19:01] <ikonia> zCoder: are they leaving the queue ?
[19:02] <daftykins> TrueNhero: what's the problem then?
[19:02] <TrueNhero> i need write on an ext4 partition
[19:03] <TrueNhero> daftykins: it automounts as readonly
[19:03] <TrueNhero> daftykins: how could i change the permissions?
[19:04] <daftykins> TrueNhero: "df -h" in terminal, spot the mount point... "sudo mount -o remount,rw /mount/point"
[19:04] <rww> in before it's mounted read write already and needs a chmod/chown
[19:04] <TrueNhero> daftykins: but i need that happens at boot
[19:05] <daftykins> TrueNhero: can you pastebin the output of "mount" first?
[19:05] <daftykins> TrueNhero: i'm sure you do, but baby steps.
[19:05] <daftykins> wow - major deja vu
[19:05] <zCoder> ikonia: doesnt see to say much at all..  some errors from before but nohting from today
[19:07] <youngboy> hello, can someone help me with ubuntu installation, doesnt work. I can run ubuntu demo, but it refuses to install with usb-stick or dvd. I goes to the point where you choose if you wish to install mpeg stuff and when I click next then it thinks awhile and terminates and reboots
[19:07] <TrueNhero> daftykins: i execute "sudo mount -o remount,rw /mount/point" yet, it works
[19:07] <TrueNhero> but i need at boot
[19:08] <daftykins> ok, so create an entry in /etc/fstab
[19:08] <g1> youngboy: may be the installation files are corrupt
[19:09] <youngboy> youngboy: I dont know, but ive downloaded them from ubuntu website
[19:09] <youngboy> sorry I meant
[19:09] <TrueNhero> daftykins: $mount http://paste.ubuntu.com/7926534/
[19:09] <youngboy> gl: I dont know, but ive downloaded them from ubuntu website
[19:10] <g1> youngboy: try making the bootable disk again  and retry
[19:10] <bprompt> youngboy:    how about if you skip the "mpeg" install stuff?
[19:10] <youngboy> I have had a previous ubuntu 12version, which i uninstalled, and had a ubuntu boot haunting with windows. Then I manually deleted the boot through windows, I suspect it may have something to do with it
[19:10] <bprompt> youngboy:     or even maybe turn off a few things before starting up the boot usb/dvd   like some of the boot features, usually accessible through F6
[19:10] <youngboy> bprompt:  I tried skipping but didnt help
[19:10] <shndns> hello
[19:10] <bprompt> allo shndns
[19:11] <daftykins> TrueNhero: which device are we looking at? line 19 sdc?
[19:11] <TrueNhero> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7926549/
[19:11] <youngboy> gl: ive tried 2 disks and 3 usbsticks with differnt software
[19:11] <daftykins> TrueNhero: yeah i know what fstab looks like, you need to create an entry in there now.
[19:11] <youngboy> bprompt:  so when I get to install screen after boot, where I choose language, then I press f6 and turn off stuff?
[19:11] <MarcGuay> Hi folks.  Say I'm in the file browser and select a .png and choose "open with gimp".  Is there a way to make the gimp window come to the front automatically instead of having the dock icon jiggle?
[19:12] <TrueNhero> daftykins: line 19 sdc1 is usb kingston 4gb
[19:12] <bprompt> youngboy:    right.....
[19:13] <daftykins> TrueNhero: right, so tell me which *IS* the right one...
[19:13] <jessejazza> join oftc
[19:13] <youngboy> bprompt:  Is that an agreement, or a statement? I am really a mega noob in this, so I appreciate the support you can give.
[19:14] <mikeg3> I forgot my password; how do I reset it in Ubuntu 14.04?
[19:14] <TrueNhero> daftykins: the problem is sdb1
[19:14] <jessejazza> join /oftc
[19:14] <daftykins> TrueNhero: ok so set it up in /etc/fstab , you can mount by UUID by getting the UUID from "sudo blkid"
[19:14] <daftykins> jessejazza: the command you're grasping for is "/join #channelname"
[19:15] <bprompt> youngboy:     hehe, is an ok.. yes... turn off a few things there, maybe is just hardware incompatibility with loading drivers
[19:15] <g1> jessejazza: lol
[19:15] <mikeg3> !password
[19:15] <TrueNhero> daftykins: what happens if change: errors=remount-ro to remount-rw?
[19:15] <youngboy> bprompt:  but I have had ubuntu 12 before, like I wrote jsust now: [19:10] <youngboy> I have had a previous ubuntu 12version, which i uninstalled, and had a ubuntu boot haunting with windows. Then I manually deleted the boot through windows, I suspect it may have something to do with it
[19:15] <daftykins> TrueNhero: that is nothing to do with what i'm telling you to do.
[19:16] <daftykins> TrueNhero: perhaps you should join a channel for your language, you obviously don't understand me.
[19:16] <derek-g> why is my chromium of version 34? while version 37 was already released.... Why is the delay?
[19:16] <g1> youngboy: does it reboot or goes to black screen?
[19:16] <TrueNhero> daftykins: wait i understand you
[19:16] <bprompt> youngboy:    shouldn't choke at that stage I'd think though
[19:16] <jessejazza> daftykins: I'm using chatzilla and theres a way of typing the irc and the channel
[19:16] <daftykins> jessejazza: ok, don't do it here anymore though.
[19:16] <Lartza> Can I really not set port with rsync?
[19:16] <Lartza> SSH port
[19:17] <jessejazza> didn't mean to!
[19:17] <ciss> hi, you're probably getting hammered with this question, but i couldn't dig up an answer on my own:
[19:17] <bubbaroony> derek-g install the repo
[19:17] <daftykins> Lartza: yes, someone did it here the other day - don't remember the answer though. dig in the man page
[19:17] <youngboy> gl: bprompt: it loads up an ubuntu termination screen and tells me to eject my installation and press enter. I can get the whole error if it helps
[19:17] <g1> jessejazza: /server "server name", then /join #channelname
[19:17] <ciss> why does http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts still not list 14.04, even though the point release has been published?
[19:17] <youngboy> eject cd
[19:18] <Lartza> Found it yeah
[19:18] <daftykins> ciss: perhaps that's the wrong doc.
[19:18] <TrueNhero> daftykins: the UUID is ok
[19:18] <bprompt> youngboy:     hmm.... usually when the GUI starts off something in the background... you can press ESC to remove the UI and check processing lines on the background
[19:18] <daftykins> TrueNhero: you need to *create* a *new line* in fstab with the UUID and options for sdb1
[19:18] <jessejazza> g1: thanks... of course it is
[19:18] <ciss> daftykins: it's the one queried by update manager in ubuntu server 12.04 lts
[19:19] <CarlFK> what is the package that replaced ffmpeg?   libav something...
[19:19] <g1> youngboy: bprompt:or press upper arrow.
[19:19] <bubbaroony> !ffmpeg
[19:19] <daftykins> ciss: are you running "do-release-upgrade -p" ?
[19:19] <jgcampbell300> I am looking for a admin gui for my linux servers and desktops .. i have been testing out webmin and was wondering if there was something better ?
[19:20] <youngboy> gl: bprompt:  okay, well I try the installation with f6 and log the error so I can tell you better
[19:20] <daftykins> CarlFK: avconv ?
[19:20] <DJones> !webmin | jgcampbell300
[19:20] <DJones> !ebox | jgcampbell300
[19:20] <jgcampbell300> ahh .. ya thats a problem
[19:20] <ciss> daftykins: nope, i'm running it without parameters
[19:20] <CarlFK> daftykins: looks like it.  thanks.
[19:20] <daftykins> ciss: then run the above.
[19:20] <trap_exit> is there a way to get "sudo /sbin/dhclient eth1" every time the machine boots up ?
[19:21] <bubbaroony> CarlFKyou can find the wiki on the web
[19:21] <TrueNhero> daftykins: and erase the old line?
[19:21] <jgcampbell300> nice thanks much
[19:21] <daftykins> TrueNhero: if you just plugged that hard disk in, it shouldn't be in there at all. you're going to need to show me a pastebin of fstab together with blkid, i can't guess your UUIDs to know :)
[19:23] <TrueNhero> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7926645/
[19:23] <jgcampbell300> I tryed Zentyal about 5 months ago ... it seemed like it had quite a bit of over head ... anyone had same problem
[19:25] <nazrech> Hi, I'm experiencing screen tearing on 14.04 using proprietary nvidia drivers - is there a fix for this? :)
[19:26] <Guest92804> Is vsync enabled nazrech?
[19:26] <daftykins> TrueNhero: reboot and pastebin "mount" again please
[19:27] <nazrech> Guest92804: Sync to V-blank is enabled if that's what you mean
[19:27] <daftykins> nazrech: we don't support nvidia drivers.
[19:28] <Guest92804> Try disabling it and see if it changes anything nazrech
[19:28] <daftykins> where are you seeing tearing though?
[19:28] <ciss> daftykins: thanks, that would work, but i guess i'll just wait a bit longer until it becomes available per default
[19:29] <nazrech> Daftykins: When scrolling. Happens in both i3 and xfce.   Guest92804: Didn't help :(
[19:29] <FaboFabiFabinO> Hello body, body. There is a error with fingerprint in the official site, with version ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso and ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso, them i ask pepoal go in the lunhpad for report this bug in help the community: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-docs/+bug/1349715 .

[19:29] <Guest92804> Scrolling in a web browser or scrolling in general?
[19:29] <daftykins> ciss: it is - there's just some quirks around right now. running what i suggested is fine :) of course, you have nice working backups anyway so there's no problem!
[19:30] <nazrech> Guest92804: In general. Also when moving windows around fast. It's quite noticeable
[19:30] <ciss> daftykins: it's actually a vm, so backups aren't a problem. i'm just not in the mood of discovering errors much too late - but i'll give it a try :)
[19:31] <daftykins> ciss: even better \o/

[19:33] <Lartza> Why is ubuntu refusing my root password??
[19:33] <FaboFabiFabinO> Bonjour tout le monde, l'image CD la version ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso

[19:34] <Lartza> ssh is giving access denied
[19:34] <genii> !fr | FaboFabiFabinO
[19:35] <nicolai_> Guest92804: It didn't work unfortunately
[19:36] <daftykins> Lartza: root doesn't have a password.
[19:36] <Guest92804> Hm I'm not sure
[19:36] <Lartza> daftykins, sure does when I've set one
[19:36] <daftykins> Lartza: you bad bad man
[19:37] <ikonia> Lartza: then you should have a clue what you are doing
[19:37] <daftykins> ^
[19:37] <Lartza> i've never had ssh refuse a login -.-
[19:37] <ikonia> Lartza: if you know better than ubuntu and change the default security model - you should know what you are doing
[19:37] <Lartza> damn
[19:37] <Lartza> permitrootlogin
[19:37] <ikonia> Lartza: you should be able to debug it though if you know better than ubuntu's security model
[19:37] <Lartza> How is it on
[19:37] <Lartza> *off
[19:38] <x42> you usuall should not allow permitrootlogin
[19:38] <x42> only maybe temporarly for maintanance
[19:38] <Lartza> I need it, it's not for general use
[19:38] <ikonia> it is dsiabled by default due to sensible security model
[19:38] <ikonia> there are almost no situations to "need it"
[19:38] <Lartza> also with keys it's relatively safe
[19:38] <ikonia> you do not need it
[19:38] <Lartza> I don't have a regular user :P
[19:38] <ikonia> Lartza: it is not safe
[19:38] <x42> you also shoul disable password login - and allow only keyfile login on a different port
[19:38] <ikonia> Lartza: you do have a regular user
[19:39] <ikonia> Lartza: one is created by default when you install ubuntu
[19:39] <Lartza> ikonia, I know what I'm doing here
[19:39] <Lartza> For once
[19:39] <ikonia> Lartza: clearly you don't
[19:39] <ikonia> Lartza: hence why you are asking what's going on with ssh rejecting your login
[19:39] <Lartza> oh wait I did create a user
[19:39] <Lartza> I'm confused
[19:40] <ikonia> because you don't know what you're doing
[19:40] <Lartza> ikonia, Maybe I did a minimal install?
[19:40] <ikonia> there is no such thing
[19:40] <Lartza> What?
[19:40] <Lartza> I'm used to Arch
[19:40] <Lartza> All well now
[19:40] <Lartza> Thanks
[19:40] <ikonia> that means nothing
[19:40] <ikonia> arch ssh is the same as ubuntu and fedora and redhat and all the other distros
[19:40] <ikonia> as is the permissions model and user model
[19:40] <theadmin> Lartza: The minimal install CD is like 30MB
[19:41] <Lartza> Though arch only has a root when you start
[19:41] <theadmin> Lartza: If that's what you used
[19:41] <theadmin> Lartza: Yeah, in Ubuntu sudo is used and the root account is locked
[19:42] <Lartza> I know, that's fine usually
[19:52] <etronik> hi all, is evolution mail client being evolved or... being left behind ?
[19:55] <ikonia> etronik: by who ?
[19:55] <etronik> ikonia, I dunno, I'm just contemplating Evolution vs Thunderbird...
[19:55] <ikonia> use what you like
[19:55] <etronik> duh
[19:55] <etronik> I was trying to get some feedback from here
[19:56] <etronik> I haven't kept up with evolution for quite a long time now, so was wondering
[19:56] <bakhtiya> Hey, anyone have valid sources list still hosted (but frozen) for 13.04? Links? Made the mistake of thinking this was LTS on one of my boxes, and don't want to upgrade it yet.
[19:56] <ikonia> etronik: feedback on what ?
[19:57] <ikonia> bakhtiya: the repos have been move to oldrepos.ubuntu.com
[19:57] <etronik> ikonia, on Evolutions errrm evolution over the recent past... nevermind... I'm reading up on it
[19:57] <bakhtiya> ikonia: thank you
[19:59] <MoProductions> Hello.  I keep having to reboot my ubuntu machine because it loses connections to network folders often enough that I eventually can’t even connect to them at all (broken pipe, “unknown file type” when i’m just trying to open a folder, etc). Is there some sort of universal “disconnect from ALL shared folders and refresh” I could call so I don’t have to reboot every 5 minutes?
[19:59] <sidney_> I recently installed lxde,and i install xfce4-power-manager,but exce4 power managers standby and hibernate functions are disabled,even though i can manually standby.
[19:59] <sidney_> xfce* :P
[20:00] <bakhtiya> ikonia: oldrepos.ubuntu.com doesn't resolve dns wise
[20:00] <bakhtiya> ah, I think it's old-releases.ubuntu.com
[20:00] <ikonia> bakhtiya: old-releases, sorry

[20:09] <Eldunar> ok, i have now i3 integrated. How to switch between them?
[20:11] <etronik> oh BTW, what the best hmm packaging of xAMP stack currently for Ubuntu ? short of installing each one separately ?
[20:12] <etronik> LAMP stack in this case
[20:12] <daftykins> you can use tasksel to install all the required roles
[20:12] <daftykins> but i prefer to apt each component separately from its' main metapackage in the repos
[20:12] <daftykins> etronik: ^
[20:13] <etronik> hmm tasksel ?
[20:13] <daftykins> try it. it's the menu you often get confronted with to pick software at the end of a server install
[20:13] <etronik> k got it

[20:14] <lovesfreenode> hi
[20:14] <etronik> a_run, how to upgrade ?
[20:14] <lovesfreenode> wants info on system d
[20:14] <rww> lovesfreenode: what would you like to know?
[20:14] <Eldunar> is there any gui or sth for switching graphic cards ( instead of CCC ( i have unsupported 8750m radeon))?
[20:15] <etronik> a_run, oh forget I was already running 4.3
[20:15] <lovesfreenode> every thing
[20:15] <lovesfreenode> links
[20:15] <a_run> i just removed the older version and installed the new version
[20:20] <Cr0nus`> I'm having trouble being able to create/delete files/folders via ftp.  vsftpd/apache.  i created my own user account, added it to the www-data group.  the www-data group has control over /var/www but i cannot create files/folders with my user unless i sudo
[20:20] <excesseye> \q
[20:21] <ikonia> Cr0nus`: look at the permission the file you're trying to remove
[20:21] <ikonia> Cr0nus`: also keep in mind, depending on your ftp setup, the ftp account "may" use the user account running the ftp daemon for permissions
[20:22] <Cr0nus`> directorys show drwxr-sr-x and files show -rw-r--r--
[20:23] <ikonia> Cr0nus`: so group has no ability to delete them then
[20:23] <theadmin> Cr0nus`: Uh, group has no write access from this
[20:23] <etronik> daftykins, re lamp-server, if I wanna move Apache's root folder, and MySQL database away from the SSD.... I'd better install stuff individually no ?
[20:24] <Eldunar> is there any gui or sth for switching graphic cards ( instead of CCC ( i have unsupported 8750m radeon))?
[20:24] <Cr0nus`> I need to give www-data more permissions/power?
[20:24] <ikonia> etronik: why would installing it seperately change the install location
[20:24] <ikonia> Cr0nus`: no, the group
[20:25] <Cr0nus`> it shows www-data.www-data
[20:25] <etronik> ikonia, You didn't read carefully ;-) I don't want to change install location, just the data
[20:25] <ikonia> Cr0nus`: yes ?
[20:25] <ikonia> etronik: again - why would installing them seperately change the location ?
[20:25] <daftykins> etronik: no, just symlink apache's documentroot
[20:25] <ikonia> do not symlink the doc root
[20:26] <ikonia> change it in the config file to the place you want
[20:26] <daftykins> i don't see any reason not to.
[20:26] <daftykins> you could have /var live on another disk
[20:26] <etronik> ikonia, because I think that integrated install might set everything up ready to play in default locations, where individual install might allow for better configuration - I don't know that's why I'm asking
[20:26] <ikonia> not everything can follow symlinks and the apache internal permissions
[20:26] <daftykins> (benefitial for the logging fill up aspect)
[20:26] <ikonia> etronik: it doesn't ask you any questions at install time
[20:26] <etronik> daftykins, that's an idea yeah
[20:26] <ikonia> etronik: so there is zero difference
[20:27] <etronik> well then, here goes
[20:27] <daftykins> etronik: no, i as thrown by your question too... it's all auto.
[20:27] <daftykins> *was
[20:27] <etronik> daftykins, but at least for Apache I can move stuff afterwards
[20:27] <etronik> dunno about MySQL
[20:28] <ikonia> etronik: you can move anything afterwards
[20:28] <ikonia> etronik: it's just a config file

[20:38] <daftykins> FilipeSilva_: does the device state official Linux support?
[20:38] <flubby_nanabo> So, If I wanna run a script on startup, but it's supposed to run only once, and exit, should I put it on rc.local, or make it a service on /etc/init (or init.d)?
[20:38] <Beldar>  youngboy Just joined the channel are you getting help?
[20:39] <FilipeSilva_> daftykins, i dont think so
[20:40] <daftykins> FilipeSilva_: then it's probably a bonus it works at all
[20:40] <FilipeSilva_> daftykins, on the manufacter website there's no drive, not even for windows
[20:40] <daftykins> contact them
[20:41] <FilipeSilva_> daftykins, i will, thanks.

[21:12] <bilde2910> Hello! I have a laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 server, as the main server for my website. Earlier today, the server got disconnected, seemingly without reason. I tried restarting the machine, but the network does not go up. Running ifconfig only shows loopback interface lo, `sudo lshw -C network' lists the interface em1 (the ethernet interface) as "*-network DISABLED". Card is an RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet Controller".
[21:12] <bilde2910> Any help resolving this? I need to get the machine online as fast as possible because thousands of users of my web services are unable to connect to the website
[21:12] <IRA___> youngboy, do not know. My best guess: launch installation program from terminal emulator, so you can see what it printing.
[21:13] <bilde2910> The switch shows activity on the port the server is connected to.
[21:14] <bilde2910> Also, the file /etc/network/interfaces does NOT exist
[21:14] <IRA___> youngboy, you can try manually repartition your HDD to create separate partition for Ubuntu.
[21:16] <youngboy> IRA___:  okay I will have to try that
[21:17] <bilde2910> On startup, "configure network interface" fails twice

[21:25] <bilde2910> "configure virtual network devices" also fails.
[21:38] <Beldar> bilde2910, #ubuntu-server may be better
[21:38] <bilde2910> Okay, thanks
[21:40] <Beldar> bilde2910, Try to encompass your info in single post it can get convoluted when you spread it out
[21:42] <bilde2910> Hm?
[21:42] <BAMbanda> can someone kindly advise me on how I should upgrade my ubuntu studio 12.04 to the latest version of regular ubuntu?
[21:43] <malkauns> BAMbanda: reinstall from scratch
[21:43] <Beldar> BAMbanda, Just info but there is a #ubuntu-studio channel as well
[21:44] <Beldar> malkauns, Can you give a reasoning on that?
[21:47] <MoPac> Hello, I am installing on a fresh drive, and I will be putting Ubuntu in a LUKS container. Question: Do I need to create an EFI boot partition *and* a separate partition that has the actual kernel on it and should be mounted at /boot? Or does the new "EFI boot partition" do everything that the old boot partitions did?
[21:48] <Beldar> MoPac, Ubuntu has a auto efi install I would assume this is the same eith a luks install
[21:48] <Beldar> with*
[21:48] <MoPac> Beldar: Well, I'm also leaving some space at the end of the disk for a different OS, so I didn't want to do the auto install, even though it could include LUKS
[21:49] <hakim> hello all.. i am having issues with automounting 2 extra harddrives..when i boot it says "the disk for /mnt/xxxxx" is not ready yet or not present" continue to wait or press s to skip mounting... it wont boot until i press s.. then it will eventually mount by itself.
[21:49] <Beldar> MoPac, Have an image/clone and backups of the others OS's to cover any contigency, and recover discs.
[21:49] <feldoh2go> hello!  I have finally got ubuntu to load on a dell vostro 200.  only it is 10.04.    can i upgrade to 12.04 (I have the live cd)  from within ubuntu?
[21:49] <MoPac> Beldar: This is a fresh drive -- there's nothing at all on it at the moment. I just don't want to have to resize partitions later
[21:50] <Beldar> !eol | feldoh2go read the eol upgrade
[21:50] <Beldar> MoPac, Sure, I'm not up on efi manual installs is all.
[21:51] <MoPac> What I'm wondering is: will the stuff that a legacy system writes to "/boot" now be written to the EFI boot partition? Or is the EFI boot partition just a new object in the cascade, so it will point to a /boot partition, and then the decryption will happen?
[21:51] <feldoh2go> my issue is i really want to get to 14, but nothing would install directly on to the computer...untill i went way back to a live 10.04 that i had from years back.
[21:51] <Beldar> MoPac, legacy would be mbr
[21:52] <feldoh2go> 12 will not load....nor will mint 14, 17, 15
[21:52] <Beldar> feldoh2go, Will not load means?
[21:52] <feldoh2go> hoping to inch up from 10 to 14...can that work?
[21:53] <feldoh2go> it means they lock up and go nowhere.  12.04 says cold plug something or other
[21:53] <MoPac> Beldar: So the efi partition replaces the MBR but doesn't replace /boot ?
[21:53] <Beldar> feldoh2go, You need to know generalizing here does not help you, be exact.
[21:53] <hakim> hello all.. i am having issues with automounting 2 extra harddrives..when i boot it says "the disk for /mnt/xxxxx" is not ready yet or not present" continue to wait or press s to skip mounting... it wont boot until i press s.. then it will eventually mount by itself.
[21:54] <Beldar> MoPac, Can't say other than a legacy is a mbr boot, I would just go msdos if it were me,
[21:54] <feldoh2go> finally gave up on mint....   cold plug device line fails...two times seems like, every time i try to boot up
[21:55] <feldoh2go> seems like 12 is cooking right along to install....then stops ....up the list is the cold plug devices (fail)
[21:55] <lodahu> Hi ! Do anybody know how I can set my age, gender and town with xchat ?
[21:56] <mawmaw> Hi guys, how can I make gnome shell search for files? Somehow it's not working now
[21:57] <Beldar> feldoh2go, seems that error is you project than eh.
[21:57] <Beldar> lodahu, Try #xchat
[21:57] <feldoh2go> ok....but i have no idea what 'cold plug device' means
[21:58] <lodahu> Beldar, I did :(
[21:58] <eeee> mawmaw: sudo find <directory> -name <filename> , e.g sudo find / -name myfile
[21:58] <Beldar> lodahu, Honestly I would not have that info there.
[21:58] <mawmaw> eeee: yeah man thanks for that but I'm talking about the search bar you get when you go to activities
[21:59] <lodahu> Beldar : ok thank you very much for answering :)
[21:59] <hakim> can anyone help me with my hdd auto mount issues?
[21:59] <Beldar> hakim, NOt without a decription
[21:59] <eeee> mawmaw: well, im using unity, in nautilus there's a magnifier icon you click to search fo files
[21:59] <Beldar> description*
[21:59] <mawmaw> eeee: thanks man
[22:00] <feldoh2go> is there some way to scroll back up the data rolling accross the screen while setting up...look for other trouble?
[22:00] <dw1> whats the best way to unlock another user on the same machine's home folder, knowing the password & passphrase?
[22:00] <hakim> when i restart is says "the disk for /mnt/xxxx is not ready or present press s to skip or m for manual @Beldar
[22:00] <Beldar> dw1, Not supported here.
[22:01] <Beldar> hakim, Have you added it to fstab?
[22:01] <hakim> then when i restart i get drive error
[22:01] <hakim> on both drives that i tried to automount
[22:01] <hakim> im doing my editing via Disks GUI
[22:02] <Beldar> hakim, Automount easily done with fstab use it.
[22:02] <hakim> im not a coder
[22:02] <Beldar> hakim, Neither am I.
[22:02] <dw1> Beldar: k. basically i want a separate user/folder to copy backups from a server using passwordless publickey (so my main account isnt compromised if my server is), and to access them from my main user. nothing nefarious. :)
[22:02] <hakim> how do i use fstab
[22:02] <Beldar> !fstab | hakim
[22:03] <hakim> so in other words the GUI in Ubuntu is broken!
[22:03] <Beldar> dw1, Sure, however your description entails getting in with the users info, ask them for it.
[22:03] <dw1> Beldar: as mentioned, I have the password and passphrase. i made the account
[22:04] <Guest78826> skype is no longer supported via the partners repo?
[22:04] <dw1> Beldar: I just want to mount it gracefully from my main user
[22:04] <Beldar> hakim, Not necessarily, it seems you have limited understanding, from what I can tell.
[22:04] <Beldar> dw1, I can't help you.
[22:04] <hakim> there are options in the Disks GUI to do what i want...however when using the GUI it doesnt work
[22:05] <hakim> sound broken
[22:05] <hakim> sounds broken to me
[22:05] <Beldar> hakim, If you refuse to just learn you will be stuck, relying on the channel for such basic stuff is not a good start, I gave you a link this info is all over the web.
[22:06] <Beldar> google fstab automount ubuntu
[22:06] <hakim> its not that i refuse to learn.. its that the GUI should just work
[22:07] <hakim> ill probably have to start with a fresh fstab file?
[22:07] <hakim> seems as if mine is screwed up
[22:07] <Beldar> hakim, that is a hardheaded response, we do not know if you are correctly even doing it. The fstab option is the most common used method.
[22:08] <Beldar> no fresh fstab
[22:09] <Beldar> hakim, fstab mount what mounts now like the OS, swap, etc
[22:10] <hakim> ok
[22:10] <hakim> im going to put a pastbin up
[22:11] <hakim> im sure my file is messed up becasue i have been trying to get it correct all day
[22:11] <lorenx> hey, anyone having problems with skype <IP_ADDRESS> lately? i cannot login, it's keep on saying "skype can't connect" but i could till yesterday and i can connect from my phone anyway. i've also tryed to purge and install again, ubuntu 14.04. thanks
[22:11] <Beldar> hakim, It is not hard just a little study of it and some questions if needed, you will figure it out with help if needed. ;)
[22:11] <feldoh2go> 12.-04 loading hangs at:  stopping save kernel messages   (ok)
[22:11] <hakim> sudo gedit fstab?
[22:12] <Beldar> feldoh2go, I would look on the web and at askubuntu on installs on this exact computer, there may a fix known.
[22:12] <TJ-> hakim: "pastebinit /etc/fstab"
[22:13] <feldoh2go> search at askubuntu  i have not tried.  many times have googled
[22:13] <feldoh2go> someone said a controller would not accept the kernel
[22:13] <Beldar> lorenx, This skype from their website or the ubuntu repos, there is a skype wiki.
[22:14] <Beldar> feldoh2go, What is the chip you have?
[22:14] <lorenx> Beldar: ubuntu repo
[22:14] <Beldar> !skype | lorenx just a link
[22:14] <hakim> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927779/  i have 3 hard drives 2 of which i want to automount other than the obvious OS harddrive.
[22:15] <feldoh2go> pentium dual core e2200 baldar
[22:15] <Beldar> hakim, Be sure to preface your info to the user who asks.
[22:15] <hakim> good idea
[22:16] <Beldar> ;)
[22:16] <hakim> tj: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927779/  i have 3 hard drives 2 of which i want to automount other than the obvious OS harddrive
[22:16] <Beldar> feldoh2go, Just wondered if it was a pae kernel issue, should not be, you can tab complete nicks so they are correct.
[22:17] <lorenx> Beldar: thanks but i guess it's something weird, i used it quietly yesterday. i've thought about the firewall but it's not... maybe it may help to know i'm not the only one today, maybe a server error...
[22:17] <TJ-> hakim: I see 1 problem already; you have two file-systems both set to auto-mount at /media/hakim
[22:17] <TrueNhero> daftykins: hi, my "mount" after reboot http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927798/
[22:17] <lorenx> Beldar: i don't think it has been updated tonite, right?
[22:17] <feldoh2go> i can tab complete nicks....?
[22:18] <Beldar> lorenx, In what release?
[22:18] <hakim> what do i do to fix that TJ
[22:18] <Beldar> feldoh2go, yes
[22:18] <daftykins> TrueNhero: "ls -al /media/sea60a/" pastebin please
[22:18] <lorenx> i'm on 14.04
[22:19] <feldoh2go> ...hmm.   i have no idea what that means, I mean....
[22:19] <hakim> TJ: what do i do to fix that?
[22:19] <Beldar> lorenx, Running a update now to see, however that would be an unusual anomaly.
[22:19] <TJ-> hakim: make the mountpoint directory unique. The problem you have though, is you're trying to have the additional file-systems mount on pass 0.... that is reserved for the kernel file-systems like /proc. You need to change the pass numbers to 2, so they mount *after* the root file-system (which is mounted on pass 1)
[22:20] <TJ-> hakim: Look at line #7 - that shows the 'column' titles .... change the numbers under the "<pass>" column for your additional file-systems from "0" to "2"
[22:21] <hakim> TJ: sorry dude... i understand what your saying but i dont know what to edit to fix that
[22:21] <hakim> ok
[22:21] <lorenx> Beldar: yeah, i think so... i've also tryed the <IP_ADDRESS> from http://goo.gl/CjhtzJ but it seems it has some problems :)
[22:21] <TJ-> hakim: Also, you've deleted the root file-system mount entry entirely, so I'm not sure how the system can start!
[22:21] <lorenx> Beldar: you are running fine a <IP_ADDRESS> skype version on 14.04?
[22:21] <TrueNhero> daftykins:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927869/
[22:22] <TJ-> hakim: If you do an "update-grub" the system could become unbootable as a result
[22:22] <hakim> i didnt edit this file at all @TJ
[22:23] <TJ-> hakim: Well, whatever did... throw it away ... as *far* as possible because it has seriously broken the fstab
[22:23] <hakim> i did my changes from the GUI .. so in other words the gUI is broken
[22:24] <TJ-> hakim: do you mean this? https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/gnome-disk-utility/
[22:24] <Bashing-om> lorenx: Others are also haveing difficulities .. see : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2237373 .. these (re)installed to resolve.
[22:24] <hakim> its hard for me to see this in column format @TJ can this be opened in calc
[22:24] <TJ-> hakim: Insert additional spaces if you need to, to make the columns align better. Tabs or spaces are allowed as separators.
[22:24] <daftykins> TrueNhero: assuming that's your username, "truenhero", you have read-write access and permissions look ok.
[22:25] <hakim> i have it opened in gedit
[22:25] <Beldar> lorenx, I have the one from the skype site however never use it I use it in windows, either install does not pull up my 3rd part cam.
[22:25] <hakim> i used the stock disks program.. whatever ubuntu 14.04 comes with
[22:25] <daftykins> TrueNhero: try "touch /media/sea60a/testfile"
[22:26] <Beldar> lorenx,Logs in normally however. I would go to home unhide files and go to .config and remove it and set up skype again IE name and password.
[22:27] <TJ-> hakim: I can't help you with that, I don't use Unity and I tend to stay away from GUI tools for system-critical configuration
[22:27] <hakim> i would just like to start from fresh looks like there is 9 lines for 3 drives.. do you know which lines can be deleted @TJ
[22:27] <hakim> BTW i really appreciate your help
[22:28] <Beldar> hakim, type tj than hit tab to complete the nick so it is correct
[22:28] <hakim> nice! @ Beldar
[22:28] <hakim> thanks
[22:29] <Beldar> no prob hakim
[22:29] <TJ-> hakim: Let's find out what the proper entry for the root file-system should be. do "pastebinit /proc/cmdline"
[22:29] <Beldar> Guest28362, lets party like it's 1999
[22:29] <hakim> terminal sudo gedit /proc/cmdline? @ TJ-
[22:30] <TJ-> hakim: no, just type the command I showed you in the terminal shell and tell me the pastebin URL it gives you
[22:30] <hakim> ok
[22:30] <lorenx> Bashing-om, Beldar: hey, it's seems now apt get make me install the 4.3 version? you too or i did some weird things with gdebi and the deb new version...
[22:31] <Beldar> lorenx, I think mine is from skype like I said I never use just happens to be installed, the wiki says use the repos.
[22:31] <hakim> installing pastbin give me a sec..
[22:31] <koell> is it possible to encrypt a partition after installation?
[22:31] <Bashing-om> lorenx: Sorry, I do not run skype, can not confirm .. ( seems skype is having a problem, though) .
[22:31] <hakim> @ TJ-
[22:32] <Beldar> skype logs in here fine
[22:32] <hakim> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927954/
[22:33] <OerHeks> lorenx, just update, update should show you 1 hold back package, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:34] <lorenx> OerHeks: everything's fine for apt-get update
[22:34] <Beldar> lorenx, pastebin that apt-get update
[22:35] <Beldar> lorenx, Did you try removing the config and setting it up again?
[22:35] <lorenx> http://pastebin.com/01xxsaUa
[22:35] <lorenx> Beldar: yeah, many times :)
[22:35] <Beldar> coo
[22:35] <Beldar> cool
[22:36] <OerHeks> after install, logout/login again?
[22:36] <TJ-> hakim: thanks, I'm rewriting a corrected fstab for you. Can you tell me what this reports? "sudo blkid -o value -s TYPE /dev/disk/by-uuid/87abac01-516f-4367-8109-f25fd04c0042"  ?
[22:36] <lorenx> OerHeks: i just cannot login, it always answers with a red writing "Skype con't connect"
[22:37] <hakim> ext4 @ TJ-
[22:37] <TJ-> hakim thanks
[22:38] <hakim> no thank you
[22:38] <hello> hey folks
[22:39] <TrueNhero> daftykins: touch: cannot touch `/media/sea60a/testfile': Read-only file system
[22:39] <Beldar> lorenx, What is after "Reading package lists... Done" in the apt-get?
[22:39] <hello> I use grep -r "text" its a bit slow is there a faster command?
[22:39] <lorenx> i've tried to enable the log but it doens't log plain text
[22:39] <lorenx> Beldar: nothing
[22:39] <reisio> hello: not really
[22:39] <reisio> hello: unless you know more
[22:39] <lorenx> prompt is back
[22:39] <daftykins> TrueNhero: on more "ls -al /media/"
[22:39] <daftykins> *one
[22:40] <Beldar> lorenx, How long did you wait?
[22:40] <lorenx> about 1 second, 1 and half
[22:40] <Beldar> lorenx, Let it finish, not long enough at times
[22:41] <TJ-> hakim: This should be the correct minimal fstab. I suggest you try a reboot using it first to ensure it doesn't cause problems, then you can add in the additional mounts. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927992/
[22:41] <lorenx> Beldar: what do you mean :)
[22:42] <TrueNhero> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7928012/
[22:42] <Beldar> Beldar> lorenx, Let it finish, not a long enough wait at times
[22:42] <hakim> thank you very much @ TJ-
[22:42] <hakim> i will try rebooting with it
[22:43] <hello> reisio what more?
[22:43] <hello> I might know which files to check
[22:43] <Beldar> lorenx, should give more info or return to how the cli starts, try sudo apt-get -f install  I wonder if you have a broken install.
[22:43] <hello> so it wont check all
[22:43] <hello> saves time
[22:43] <reisio> hello: yes, that would save time
[22:44] <hello> reisio are u good with regex?
[22:44] <lorenx> Beldar: i don't have any broken thing, apt is fine... it just propose the 4.3 version now... and this sounds weird
[22:44] <Beldar> lorenx, How do you know you do not?
[22:44] <hello> I am using sudo find -type f -name "*.*" -exec sed -i 's/Votes//g' {} \; to erase Votes text string, however for next step I want to erase text string only from specific files
[22:45] <hello> and keep it in da rest
[22:45] <hello> :)
[22:45] <lorenx> cause all command run fine, update, install, purge, autoremove, autoclean...
[22:45] <daftykins> TrueNhero: it definitely matches your username, yes?
[22:45] <reisio> hello: you can 'find' specific files
[22:46] <TrueNhero> daftykins: yes it is
[22:46] <hello> thing is many files share same string
[22:46] <Beldar> lorenx, I have had broken installs and all those run fine, it is if you are reading the cli correctly, the command I gave you is just a check, worth running.
[22:46] <daftykins> reisio / Beldar i could definitely use a second opinion on this one if you could
[22:46] <hello> its required to remove it only from a specific type of files
[22:46] <TJ-> hello: it might be safer to use "-execdir" instead of "-exec"
[22:46] <hello> TJ how come?
[22:47] <lorenx> oh, you mean sudo apt-get -f install? yeah, i've already run it also, sorry ;)
[22:47] <hello> linux overload here lol
[22:47] <Beldar> daftykins, Heh outside my pay scale. ;)
[22:47] <TJ-> hello: "man find" then "/-execdir"
[22:47] <reisio> safe is having a backup
[22:47] <Beldar> lorenx, Cool, thanks.
[22:47] <hello> yes @ backup
[22:47] <hakim> it works @ TJ- ...now i just need help adding the automount lines.
[22:47] <hello> brb
[22:47] <TJ-> hakim: OK, let me re-add in all those you had before
[22:47] <mikemikemike> I'm planning on installing Ubuntu using only 1 partition. It is easy later on to say, add a swap and home partition?
[22:47] <hakim> no
[22:48] <daftykins> reisio or TJ- - /dev/sdb1 has write issues - http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927798/ - http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927869/ - http://paste.ubuntu.com/7928012/ <-- path is non-writable by user with 'touch /media/sea60a/testfile' - ?
[22:48] <hakim> not all just 2 @ TJ-
[22:48] <daftykins> i see nothing wrong.
[22:48] <TrueNhero> daftykins: the strange part is that when i delete or do something with files, the permission change
[22:48] <Beldar> mikemikemike, You can separate out home yes and make a swap, just be sure you have an understanding of tyoes of partitions and the limitations on a single HD.
[22:48] <reisio> daftykins: what user?
[22:48] <Beldar> types*
[22:49] <mikemikemike> Beldar:Thanks! :)
[22:49] <daftykins> reisio: the one the path is owned by
[22:49] <Beldar> mikemikemike,If that makes no sense say so. ;)
[22:49] <reisio> daftykins: that's no kind of answer :p
[22:49] <Beldar> bazinga
[22:50] <mikemikemike> It does. I have 16GB RAM, so figure it's not really needed.
[22:50] <daftykins> reisio: lol, sure it is - "truenhero"
[22:50] <TJ-> hakim: OK, well I've added them in ... you can either comment-them out with a "#" at the start of each line, or delete them, as needed. Also, read the comment I've left for the last 2 lines: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7928076/
[22:50] <hakim> ok thanks
[22:50] <reisio> daftykins: you try unmounting it and remounting it?
[22:51] <Beldar> mikemikemike, Generally I set the swappiness to 10, but I have only 3 gigs.
[22:51] <mikemikemike> Swappieness being the size of the swap partition>
[22:51] <daftykins> TrueNhero: they change? how?
[22:51] <reisio> mikemikemike: what?
[22:51] <bekks> mikemikemike: Swapiness has nothing to do with the size of the swap partition.
[22:51] <Beldar> mikemikemike, No when it starts to swap.
[22:52] <daftykins> reisio: the user in here is TrueNhero - we did do a remount rw before, not sure if we tested it
[22:52] <Beldar> !swap | mikemikemike look here
[22:52] <mikemikemike> Alright. then I don't understand what swappiness. means.
[22:52] <reisio> daftykins: how about a 'umount', followed by an explicit 'mount'
[22:52] <mikemikemike> Thabnks for the link.
[22:52] <Beldar> no prob
[22:52] <mikemikemike> Will read that FAQ.
[22:53] <daftykins> reisio: roger that, TrueNhero try the above ^
[22:53] <TJ-> daftykins: TrueNhero I'd be checking "cat /proc/mounts" in case the file system was remounted read-only, and I'd be checking the device hasn't slipped its write-protect switch on
[22:53] <mikemikemike> Also, I have a spare partition with 20GB~. If I install Ubuntu on there, will dual boot with my Windows partition automatically be configures where I'll see the Grub screen?
[22:53] <daftykins> TJ-: ty sir
[22:54] <Beldar> mikemikemike, Grub should show all bootable partitions.
[22:55] <mikemikemike> Alright. Just checking.
[22:55] <al1o> I have a USB Soundcard which is perfectly recognized on my first physical USB port, however on the second USB port it is not recognized. How can I make Ubuntu recognize always my usb soundcard?
[22:55] <mikemikemike> Going to read that FAQ now.
[22:55] <TrueNhero> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7928119/
[22:55] <Beldar> al1o, Check the ports info on that computer some have specific uses and limitations at times.
[22:56] <reisio> al1o: it might get power only from one, for example
[22:56] <al1o> not that I know... device is a Banana Pi
[22:56] <TrueNhero> daftykins: i do umount/mount before
[22:56] <daftykins> TrueNhero: and the touch testfile has the same effect?
[22:58] <digital> Olá
[22:58] <Beldar> al1o, Is Ubuntu even related here?
[22:58] <TrueNhero> daftykins: nothing happens
[22:58] <al1o> sure, running Lubuntu on the device
[22:58] <daftykins> TrueNhero: it should run and complete with no output, bbs
[22:59] <zartoosh> hi I am using ubuntu 14.04. I keep observing this in my /var/log/messages init: upstart-file-bridge main process ended, respawning
[22:59] <TrueNhero> daftykins: bbs?
[22:59] <daftykins> be back soon
[22:59] <Beldar> al1o, My guess is just limitations on the usb ports, a lsusb might tell if it shows.
[23:00] <TrueNhero> daftykins:(touch)it run and complete with no output
[23:00] <TJ-> TrueNhero: "strace -o /tmp/touch-strace.log -e trace=file touch /media/sea60a/testfile && pastebinit /tmp/touch-strace.log"

[23:08]  * samthewildone goes to google
[23:08] <hakim> so edited the fstab again for the 2 drives i want to auto mount and this is what i have http://paste.ubuntu.com/7928213/ @ TJ-  ..... im guessing that i may need to add 3 to one of the two drives in the pass column.. because i am now getting that failed to mount message at boot
[23:08] <TJ-> select * from samthewildone  where question = 'help';
[23:09] <Blaster> Hey all of the sudden I am getting "Skype can't connect".   How can I diagnose the issue?  I replaced my modem today but it still works on other devices so it's frustrating.
[23:09] <Blaster> This happens when I simply try to sign in to Skype.
[23:10] <reisio> Blaster: you could try mv'ing ~/.skype (or whatever) and let it make a new one
[23:10] <TJ-> hakim: No. If you get failed to mount it is because the storage devices haven't been found, *or* the directories you've defined as the mount points do *not* exist. Have you previously created those directories ("ls /mnt/" will show what is there) ?
[23:10] <svetlana> Blaster, what reisio said, and probably start it from terminal so that it logs something ... iirc they don't have a 14.04 release yet tho
[23:11] <Blaster> Moving ~/.Skype didn't fix it.   I will try starting from terminal
[23:11] <user1> how to install the firefox at windows?
[23:11] <user1> how to install the firefox at windows 9x?
[23:11] <Beldar> Blaster, try removing /.config/skype
[23:11] <hakim> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7928253/ @ TJ-
[23:11] <Blaster> Nothing logged to console when trying to sign in after launching from console.
[23:11] <Beldar> ~/.config/skype*
[23:11] <Blaster> Same error message.
[23:11] <Blaster> Beldar:  I will try that.
[23:11] <svetlana> user1, ask ##windows please, i dunno ... thought they'd have an installer, or if they don't then you need to compile ...
[23:13] <Blaster>  Still no go after removing ~/.config/Skype.  :(
[23:13] <Blaster> What else can I try?
[23:13] <Blaster> I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
[23:13] <hakim> if they are there should i delete them and reboot to try again? @ TJ-
[23:13] <Beldar> Blaster, Di you have to relaod the name and password?
[23:13] <Beldar> Did*
[23:13] <Blaster> Beldar:  Yeah.
[23:14] <Guest63296> Hi there!There is question.Can the absence of drivers cause overheating of laptop?
[23:14] <Beldar> Blaster, WE saw another user with same issue if it was not you, works fine here.
[23:14] <TJ-> hakim: No. They *need* to be there. "mount" does not create mount points... if they are missing, mount fails
[23:15] <Beldar> Guest63296, theoretically yes
[23:15] <Blaster> This just started today for me.  Although I have been experiencing other issues with Skype, like not receiving certain group chat messages.
[23:15] <TrueNhero> TJ-: http://pastebin.com/w0N4vSJr
[23:15] <hakim> they are there
[23:17] <usr13> Guest63296: Actually, the absence of drivers will usually only result in not having access to the particular device, nothing more usually.
[23:17] <hakim> they are there but i still get that message saying press s to skip or m for manual at start up @ TJ-
[23:17] <Guest63296> :Beldar how to check presence of drivers, is there some kind of terminal comands?
[23:17] <samthewildone> wow there is so much more in sql
[23:17] <samthewildone> :|
[23:17] <samthewildone> Relational Algebra
[23:18] <usr13> Guest63296: lspci  #To see what devices you may have to check on.
[23:18] <samthewildone> ... guess I better brush up on some skills
[23:18] <TJ-> TrueNhero: so it works, the file is there
[23:18] <usr13> Guest63296: lsmod  #To show a list of most of the driver modules you have loaded now
[23:18] <TJ-> hakim: are you sure you haven't listed a UUID in the fstab that is *not* connected at boot time?
[23:19] <TrueNhero> TJ-: im going to tell u what happens if i delete one file
[23:19] <usr13> Guest63296: Most modern Operating Systems (like Ubuntu), will automatically load pretty much all the driver modules you need.
[23:19] <usr13> Guest63296: So do you have an issue with an overheating laptop?
[23:20] <usr13> Guest63296: Or what?
[23:20] <Guest63296> usr13: yes
[23:20] <TJ-> hakim: try "sudo blkid" and compare all the UUIDs of the connected devices with the fstab entries. If you have an fstab UUID that isn't reported by blkid, that'll be your problem. Either have that device connected, or remove/comment it in fstab
[23:20] <usr13> Guest63296: And what makes you think it is overheating?
[23:20] <TrueNhero> i have the dl.exe problem on wine...
[23:21] <Guest63296> Temperature of left side is too damn high
[23:21] <usr13> Guest63296: The bottom line is that the harder you work a computer, the more heat it will generate.
[23:22] <Guest63296> usr13 I know ,its obvious
[23:22] <usr13> Guest63296: So if you were to set it to go to sleep or hybernate pretty quickly when not in use, then you'll have less heat issues
[23:22] <OerHeks> Guest63296, what laptop?
[23:22] <Guest63296> lenovo think pad 15
[23:22] <usr13> Guest63296: That is not to say that you don't have a problem that needs to be solved...
[23:22] <usr13> Guest63296: What version of Ubuntu do you have installed?
[23:24] <Guest63296> I am actualy using elementary os based on ubuntu/
[23:24] <usr13> Guest63296: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/751689
[23:24] <hakim> should the fstab file system be like this? /dev/disk/by-uuid/bf6137fa-90e3-444d-a344-6b8af2252b34 @ TJ-
[23:24] <usr13> Guest63296: Elementary is based on 12.04, but there is an IRC channel for elementary
[23:24] <usr13> !elementary | Guest63296
[23:24] <Guest63296> thanks a lot
[23:25] <Guest63296> for help
[23:25] <Guest63296> will go there
[23:25] <usr13> Guest63296: Try the elementary channel.  (Although it is based on Ubuntu 12.04, it is *not* ubuntu and has it's own set of issues.)
[23:26] <usr13> Guest63296: So /join #elementary  #And ask there...
[23:27] <hakim> blkid shows a label and a uuid.. should i put the label in the fstab aswell @ TJ-
[23:27] <hakim> for the drives i want to auto start
[23:27] <reisio> hakim: one or the other, not both
[23:27] <hakim> ok
[23:27] <reisio> if the label is unique, then it's easier for a human to deal with
[23:27] <OerHeks> Guest63296, sudo apt-get install thinkfan  http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Thinkpad_ACPI
[23:27] <reisio> LABEL=foo vs UUID=bar
[23:29] <hakim> the mount point has the label in its name will that cause issues ?
[23:29] <hakim> the uuid matches
[23:30] <noobatron> Any C compiler support for Ubuntu
[23:30] <TJ-> hakim: No, use only one of them. The reason we use UUID is they are supposed to be Universally Unique IDentifiers
[23:31] <reisio> noobatron: sure
[23:31] <eeee> noobatron: sudo apt-get install gcc
[23:31] <reisio> noobatron: I'd recommend here, #friendly-coders, or #gcc
[23:31] <hakim> ok the mount folder has folders in it with the uuid as its name.. should i delete those folders?
[23:31] <TJ-> hakim: You could replace the "/dev/disk/by-uudi/" part with just "UUID=" ... see the entry I added for the root file-system for an example
[23:31] <noobatron> Sweet
[23:32] <hakim> ok i will give that a try
[23:32] <noobatron> Is there a way to save IRC channels?
[23:32] <reisio> noobatron: to "log"
[23:32] <usr13> noobatron: Depends on your client
[23:32] <reisio> noobatron: use a dedicated client instead of a web client
[23:32] <reisio> noobatron: http://hexchat.org/
[23:32] <usr13> noobatron: Short answer is "yes"
[23:33] <reisio> noobatron: (and toggle logging in prefs)
[23:33] <usr13> noobatron: www.irssi.org/
[23:33] <noobatron> Thanks!
[23:33] <usr13> noobatron: www.irssi.org/documentation
[23:33] <reisio> hexchat'll be a better fit for a Windows user
[23:34] <usr13> reisio: Agreed.  (But is noobatron a Windows user, (or is he a Linux user)?
[23:34] <usr13> reisio: ;)
[23:35] <reisio> usr13: he's a windows user
[23:35] <reisio> 's'why I said
[23:35] <hakim> under type column it says auto.. should it be ext4 instead? @ TJ-  @ reisio
[23:35] <usr13> reisio: I'm going to assume you know more about noobatron than I do.
[23:36] <Beldar> reisio, knows everything they are in the ether. ;)
[23:37] <reisio> I know '/ctcp noobatron version' more
[23:37] <reisio> s/know/knew/
[23:38] <TJ-> hakim: If you know it will be that is fine, the "auto" option tells mount to try to figure it out for itself
[23:38] <hakim> so it doesnt matter
[23:40] <hakim> i dont get it... the UUID matches so it should not be giving an error.. going to try another reboot
[23:43] <hakim> an error occured while mounting mnt/media ....
[23:43] <hakim> very frustrating
[23:53] <koell> why isn't aptik already in the package sources? must have!
[23:55] <darkmessiah> 1
[23:55] <Beldar> !info aptik
[23:56] <Beldar> koell, In a ppa, and honestly like ppa's probably more harm than good and unneeded
[23:56] <darkmessiah> q
[23:56] <Beldar> and not supported
[23:57] <TJ-> hakim: did you type that accurately "mnt/media" ... because it is missing the leading "/"
[23:57] <hakim> it is accurate on fstab
[23:58] <hakim> im just about ready to give up on auto mounting
[23:58] <hakim> and just manually do it
[23:58] <hakim> not worth all this hassle
[23:59] <koell> i think do it by hand will save battery on a notebook
