[17:55] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: what's the filesystem on the drive?
[17:55] <lemarc> the apache2 folder was missing from etc folder so i used the command 'apt-get install --reinstall apache2.2-common' and i got the apache2 and its subfolders but the files apache2.conf, ports.conf are missing, also all the subfolders of apache2 are empty
[17:55] <Khisanth> JessicaW: you can configure sudo to only allow specific commands
[17:55] <JessicaW> Khisanth: hmmm. I didn't even think of that.
[17:55] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: 4 partitions, ext3 and FAT
[17:56] <JessicaW> Khisanth: seems more like a hack though than actually fixing the problem doesn't it?
[17:56] <Penguincsc> JessicaW: sudo will let you give certain right to certain command to certain users... ;-)
[17:56] <JessicaW> If I can get perl mod suid installed it won't be an issue.
[17:56] <somewhat> Hey, I'm having a little trouble with 12.04, and I'm hoping I can ask some questions
[17:57] <Cerrdor> le huh?
[17:57] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: did this happen after unplugging it from a windows machine without using the "Safe Remove"?
[17:57] <Khisanth> JessicaW: I would like to point to the fact that suidperl is dropped starting from 5.12.0, it might stay as an ubuntu package but it doesn't exactly have the brightest future
[17:57] <xisorshadow> !ask | somewhat
[17:57] <xisorshadow> yay i did it right
[17:57] <Khisanth> JessicaW: doing this now also means you won't have to deal with it in future upgrades
[17:57] <sacarlson> lemarc: maybe better to reinstall all of appache not just common
[17:57] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: No
[17:58] <applebloom> oin #/ponyfuckers/
[17:59] <somewhat> Great...   - My HP Compaq nc4200 running 12.04 is hanging.  It is happening very frequently (90% of the time after startup) and it always seems to hang after about five minutes - wether or not I log in.  Help?
[17:59] <JessicaW> Khisanth: ahhh. lovely. well, the problem is I have two groups that need to use the same script. The first group is only supposed to be able to write to one folder. If I give sudo access to that script, won't they be able to output to any folder?
[17:59] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: what version of Ubuntu are you running and did you keep it up to date?
[17:59] <lemarc> sararlson: i completely removed apache2 and then reinstalled it, this dint help
[18:00] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: run sudo apt-get update
[18:00] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: run sudo apt-get upgrade
[18:00] <JessicaW> Khisanth: and I apologize for using gui speak. I meant directory not folder.
[18:00] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[18:00] <sacarlson> lemarc: what version of ubuntu and what version of appache,  it normaly installs with little effort unless you tried to compile something first
[18:00] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: it might be a kernel issue
[18:01] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: precise, updated this mornign
[18:01] <quidnunc> morning8
[18:01] <quidnunc> morning*
[18:01] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: did you run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade too?
[18:01] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: can you fdisk the drive?
[18:01] <snake__> I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 32bit and I was wondering how to use the nouveau driver for my nvidia card instead of the proprietary ones because they make my screen blurry while the open source ones are nice and smooth. :)
[18:02] <Khisanth> JessicaW: when you say group do you mean actual groups as in /etc/group entries or just the regular English word? :)
[18:02] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: dist-upgrade: yes
[18:02] <lemarc> sacarlson: ubuntu 11.10 and apache-2.2.2, i dint installed it from the source code, i installed it from the distros from terminal
[18:03] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: I can fdisk and print partition table
[18:03] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: My repo mirror's may not be updated if this is a known issue that happened within the last day
[18:03] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: try running fsck.ext3 on the partitions
[18:04] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: change to the Main Server in the sources
[18:04] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: then run the whole upgrade bit again
[18:05] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: I had the same issue. Sources not up to date on my local server
[18:05] <sacarlson> lemarc: did you try a apt-get purge appache2  before reinstall?  I'm bringing up a copy of 11.10 to see if I can duplicate
[18:06] <quidnunc> Penguincsc: Alright, I have to step out for 15 minutes. I will do it when I come back. Thanks
[18:06] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: I just ran un upgrade now and got a kernel update too
[18:06] <Penguincsc> quidnunc: Good luck
[18:06] <lemarc> sacarlson: i will try purge, wait
[18:07] <sacarlson> lemarc: also you sure it didn't install maybe try http://localhost  in a browser to be sure it didn't install
[18:07] <[snake]> Um, my question was the snake__ one, I reconnected as my registered nick so it's not linked to me anymore.
[18:08] <CalvinnHobbes> I have a strange question, does anyone know of a program that can format a bash session into pretty text. What im trying to do: copy my bash commands and their corresponding output to a spreadsheet so that it can be followed by someone else. Primarily I want to format the command in one color and the output in another, the actual prompt is less important
[18:08] <[snake]> I'll just repost if it's no big deal: I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 32bit and I was wondering how to use the nouveau driver for my nvidia card instead of the proprietary ones because they make my screen blurry while the open source ones are nice and smooth. :)
[18:08]  * ir1spardalis is away: Gone away for now
[18:09] <zykotick9> !away > ir1spardalis
[18:09] <[snake]> CalvinnHobbes, Do you mean like the color prompt? them you would need to output into a database maybe.
[18:09] <lemarc> sacarlson: tried purge and reinstalled, tried opening localhost, its not opening. Also tried restarting apache2, got reply '51: Can't open /etc/apache2/envvars
[18:09] <CalvinnHobbes> yeah similar to a color prompt
[18:10] <CalvinnHobbes> except if you try and copy from a session to a spreadsheet or just a text file, the formattign is lost
[18:10] <[snake]> I know I activated mine by uncommenting the line in ~/.bashrc for force_color_prompt
[18:10] <CalvinnHobbes> I assume that when people are writing tutorials or the like that this problem has to have been run into before
[18:10] <[snake]> oh the problem is the copying. hm... idk
[18:11] <sacarlson> lemarc: maybe reboot?
[18:11] <lemarc> ok i will try that
[18:11] <[snake]> Come to think of it I could probably google my question.
[18:11] <thomasd> hello wen ever my computer boots. grub runs in a video mode not supported by my computer does anyone know how to fix this
[18:12] <thomasd> also my terminals are running in an unsupported video mode aswell
[18:14] <thomasd> hello wen ever my computer boots. grub runs in a video mode not supported by my monoter. also none of my terminals are accessable can anyone help me with this issue?
[18:15] <abckb__> thomasd: what video card are you using?
[18:15] <Penguincsc> thomas: you can edit the /etc/default/grub file to set the resolution
[18:15] <thomasd> abckb__: not a clue it's one by nvidia that's all i know
[18:15] <abckb__> thomasd: ok
[18:15] <Penguincsc> thomas: do you know how to?
[18:16] <ThomasBoxley> Penguincsc: please autocomplete the name completely, with the d at the end. I keep getting highlighted :p
[18:16] <zdennis> On Ubuntu 12.04, ImageMagick 6.6.9 is available, but I'd like to install ImageMagick 6.7. Is there a repository that I can add to find a newer version of ImageMagick?
[18:16] <Penguincsc> thomasd:  you can edit the /etc/default/grub file to set the resolution
[18:16] <thomasd> Panguincsc: yes i do but i'm paranoied that i'm going to break something
[18:16] <lemarc> sacarlson: reboot dint help, someone could probably give me the copy of etc/apache2 from their ubuntu 11.10, that might help
[18:16] <Penguincsc> ThomasBoxley: sorry, just realised I got it wrong...
[18:17] <Penguincsc> thomasd:  what's the supported resolution?
[18:18] <sacarlson> lemarc: I only have a copy running in virtualbox that seems to be running very slow for me
[18:18] <thomasd> 1024x768
[18:18] <Penguincsc> thomasd: I don't think it will break something
[18:18] <Penguincsc> thomasd: it's a standard resolution
[18:19] <thomasd> Penguincsc it is currently supposed to be set up to duel boot with windows. will reconfigureing it screw that up?
[18:19] <W0rmDrink> hi
[18:19] <W0rmDrink> for ubuntu
[18:19] <Penguincsc> thomasd: edit the file, run update-grub and reboot
[18:19] <lemarc> someone with ubuntu 11.10 and apache2 installed, plz provide me with the copy of the apache2 folder from /etc folder, that would be a big help, thanks
[18:19] <W0rmDrink> I want to setup wlan0 with static ip
[18:19] <W0rmDrink> where is docs for that
[18:19] <Penguincsc> thomasd: no
[18:19] <W0rmDrink> for /etc/network/interfaces that is
[18:20] <Penguincsc> thomasd: just edit the line that starts with GRUB_GFXMODE=
[18:20] <decci> I would like to recover a file from a remote computer from an organization.
[18:20] <thomasd> Penguincsc that line is currently commented out
[18:21] <Penguincsc> thomasd: make sure to read the comment above the variable and uncomment it if it's commented
[18:21] <sacarlson> lemarc: you have any ppa repositories added?
[18:21] <zykotick9> W0rmDrink: good luck.  this might be a decent starting point (untested by me) http://nixcraft.com/ubuntu-debian/13278-etc-network-interfaces-wireless-wifi-example.html
[18:21] <Penguincsc> thomasd: it will not affect windows, just the boot screen
[18:21] <thomasd> ok i'm giving it a shot brb
[18:22] <lemarc> sacarlson: sorry, I don't know what does hat mean.
[18:22] <sukesh> i have a 4MB broadbacn connection but i get only 2MB when tested on speedtest.net Can someone help reg this?
[18:22] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: why not use the network manager GUI?
[18:22] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, its on a headless system
[18:22] <W0rmDrink> nvm I found it kinda
[18:22] <sacarlson> lemarc: if you don't know then you probly don't have any
[18:22] <W0rmDrink> but now not sure how to add the routes
[18:23] <lemarc> sacarlson: most probably thats the case
[18:24] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: you said it - it's under /etc/network/interfaces
[18:24] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, but for adding routes ? dont see anything in the manpage on routes
[18:24] <W0rmDrink> could do it via script I guess
[18:25] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: you add routes to the ufw firewall, I think
[18:26] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: if you want them to be permanent
[18:26] <W0rmDrink> wait
[18:26] <yggdrasil> hello, can somone help me.I was mucking around with my xorg.conf and i have lost my unity interface. all i have is blank desktop . i can right click and create files but thats about it?
[18:27] <W0rmDrink> I have added to /etc/network/interfaces - but now I'm not sure how to apply it
[18:27] <jost> yggdrasil, did you make a backup of your xorg.conf?
[18:27] <yggdrasil> i have manged to get t erminal windowos up.

[18:28] <yggdrasil> jost: i can log into kde environment just fine.
[18:28] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: you have to bring the interface down and up again
[18:28] <W0rmDrink> with ifconfig ?
[18:28] <yggdrasil> im just wondering if thers a cmd to launch unity.
[18:28] <abckb__> vexaxv: nope
[18:28] <yggdrasil> whoa, typing unity freaked it out pretty good.
[18:28] <yggdrasil> hmm isee.
[18:28] <sircharlo> hey guys I have a question about apache and kerberos
[18:28] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: if it's for wifi, it won't discobbect you
[18:29] <stueng> without a DE installed and only lightdm, how would I make a user auto login ?
[18:29] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, sure - but i just did - and no effect
[18:29] <decci> We are in the process of developing a database driven web app that we expect high traffic and the server should be able to handle the large traffic. The server should also sustain with hundreds of thousands of databases rows and thousands of photos, video clips uploaded to the app. The app will also have some animation. We are currently evaluating Amazon EC2 platform to host the app, but we are open to your suggestion
[18:29] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: disconnect
[18:29] <decci> You suggest a server that is small enough to start but large enough to handle high traffic  2) Installing & configuring LAMP stack  3) Backup solutions and scaling strategies and how you will handle  4) Suggestion on moving uploaded images to S3 or other CDN services to deliver it fast   5) Suggestion on alternative solutions like Rackspace
[18:29] <arooni-mobile> is disk utility accurate?  it says i have 52 "pending sectors"  (0 reallocated sectors)  but when i ran badblocks (:  sudo badblocks -b 512 /dev/sda -v ... got Pass completed, 0 bad blocks found. (0/0/0 errors)).... what i'm concerned about is ive seen 52 pending sectors in less than a week (its a brand new drive)
[18:29] <yggdrasil> ahh haha, i got it.. unit --reset
[18:30] <yggdrasil> or something like that.
[18:30] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, I did ifconfig wlan0 down and then ifconfig wlan0 up
[18:30] <yggdrasil> sweet!! i fixed somethign on my own!
[18:30] <sircharlo> GSS-API major_status:000d0000, minor_status:000186a4
[18:30] <sircharlo> what does this mean O.o
[18:31] <ironhalik> can I use system flash player in Chrome?
[18:31] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: try ifdown wlan0
[18:31] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: what's the syntax you used?
[18:31] <W0rmDrink> ifconfig wlan0 up and ifconfig wlan0 down
[18:32] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: for the route in interfaces
[18:32] <W0rmDrink> ah
[18:32] <W0rmDrink> nvm
[18:32] <W0rmDrink> ifup
[18:32] <W0rmDrink> I would assume then
[18:32] <FloodBot1> W0rmDrink: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:32] <rrva_> how does sound get played when through hdmi.. how is the gfx card involved in the sound part
[18:33] <stueng> rrva: what device is giving you the HDMI connection?
[18:33] <Penguincsc> rrva_:  HDMI transfers both sound and video
[18:34] <stueng> it can transfer ethernet too xD
[18:34] <angs> how can I get essid of my wifi router?
[18:34] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: ?
[18:34] <stueng> angs: the essid is the name of your network
[18:34] <stueng> without a DE installed and only lightdm, how would I make a user auto login ?
[18:34] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: just give me the command you used, not the route
[18:34] <angs> thanks stueng
[18:34] <rrva_> Penguincsc: yes. but the sound card is not at all involved in hdmi audio?
[18:35] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, ifconfig wlan0 up and ifconfig wlan0 down is not a route - thats command I used - I now used ifdown wlan0 and ifup wlan0
[18:35] <stueng> rrva_: what device gives you the HDMU connection?
[18:35] <rrva_> stueng: gfx card
[18:35] <stueng> rrva_: and no, the sound card is not involved
[18:35] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: you said you added a route to the interfaces file for wlan0
[18:35] <stueng> rrva: then, the gfx card looks after the sound and sends it over HDMI
[18:35] <rrva_> stueng: ok. I have crackling sound only on hdmi audio
[18:36] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, no, I asked how to
[18:36] <rrva_> stueng: how to debug
[18:36] <Penguincsc> rrva_: if a video card has HDMI it has an audio interface
[18:36] <adel_> hi all, I need to localize and remove from my pc, all software packages that are not ubuntu certified, how should i proceed ?
[18:36] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: aahh. OK
[18:37] <stueng> rrva: I dunno tbh, but id try another cable if you have one. try disable things like DTS / dolby digital from the application that is makingg the sound
[18:37] <rrva_> stueng: I have no second cable
[18:37] <rrva_> stueng: is hdmi audio digital or analog?
[18:37] <rebe> how do I change tab size globaly in ubuntu ?
[18:37] <stueng> digital ofc
[18:38] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: checking
[18:39] <sacarlson> lemarc: I just installed apache2 2.2.20-1 with no problems on ubuntu 11.10,  http://localhost came up ok on a fresh installed box
[18:39] <stueng> without a DE installed and only lightdm, how would I make a user auto login ?
[18:39] <lemarc> sacarlson: can you provide the copy of apache2 folder?
[18:39] <sacarlson> lemarc: I used the thailand standard repository
[18:39] <stueng> nm done it
[18:40] <lemarc> sacarlson: the repositories are working fine, its something this the ubuntu, so i hope replacing the folder would help
[18:44] <roasted> Probably a dumb question... but let's say I have two debs here... one for the actual program, and one listed program-data. Which am I to install first? Data, then app?
[18:44] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: try this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-add-permanent-static-routes-in-ubuntu.html
[18:45] <Jordan_U> roasted: Pass them both to dpkg at the same time. "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/first.deb /path/to/second.deb".
[18:46] <roasted> Jordan_U: I did... well sort of... I did dpkg -i gimp*... both packages start with gimp-xyz-abc-etc so I figured that would work, but it returned with errors... I assumed I had to do one specifically first, THEN another
[18:46] <Felix713> Hi, I am experiencing latency (0.5 second freezes) whilst playing KBreakout on Ubuntu 12.04 Gnome 3 desktop on a quad core system with 4GB RAM.  I tried to run latencytop but it doesn't work. Troubleshooting suggestions would be appreciated. Thx
[18:46] <Jordan_U> roasted: And if the package was mad properly it would work in any order you chose (though if you use separate dpkg commands the first might complain, the second would still work fine).
[18:47] <Jordan_U> roasted: You're probably missing other needed dependancies. "sudo apt-get -f install".
[18:48] <trism> roasted: are you installing gimp2.8?
[18:48] <roasted> trism: yes, sort of
[18:49] <trism> roasted: if this is < 12.10, you will need and updated version of babl and gegl too
[18:49] <roasted> trism: since 2.8 isn't in the repos, and we don't want PPAs to manage, I got the .deb's for 2.8 so I'm trying to figure out how to install them manually sow e can later automate it
[18:49] <trism> roasted: yes that is fine, you'll just need those too
[18:49] <roasted> trism: I suppose the .deb's wouldn't take care of that?
[18:50] <ironhalik> can I use system flash player in Chrome?
[18:51] <Jordan_U> roasted: Managing PPAs is generally a lot simpler than trying to manage the dependancies yourself.

[18:51] <famille> Hello, my pc cant boot, error is "Starting Timydity ALSA midi [FAIL]"

[18:55] <i2out3r> Hi fellas, I'm having a problem play .avi files in 12.04 -- I've installed ubuntu-restricted-extras, kind of stuck.
[18:55] <famille> f1 esc or supr during boot?
[18:56] <Penguincsc> t432: look at the logs
[18:56] <sacarlson> lemarc: the folder is part of the apache-common.deb file so if you have that you have the folder,  I did uninstall with purge and found dependancy problems, but works if you install apache-mpm-event first then apache2
[18:56] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, thanks for the help
[18:56] <Jordan_U> i2out3r: What happens when you try to play the file in Totem?
[18:56] <Penguincsc> famille: try to disable the on-board sound card
[18:57] <Penguincsc> W0rmDrink: did that help?
[18:57] <t432> Penguincsc: where are the logs? no logs in /usr/share/tomcat6/
[18:57] <W0rmDrink> Penguincsc, sure it will when the carrier comes up ;)
[18:57] <Cerrdor> are the install commands the same on debian squeeze as on Ubuntu "apt-get....."?
[18:57] <famille> Penguincsc: ok, "solve the problem before upgrading from 11.10 to 11.10, but now in version 12.04 I can not do" (google translate)
[18:57] <sacarlson> lemarc: I uninstalled every package that was part of apache to try to duplicate
[18:57] <W0rmDrink> Is there a way to pass command line args to wpa_supplicant from /etc/network/interfaces ?
[18:57] <Penguincsc> t432: no - at /var/log/tomcat6  maybe?
[18:57] <famille> but i try with BIOS, thx

[19:02] <Felix713> @sgtcupcake: no such command exists
[19:02] <Penguincsc> sgtcupcake: no such command

[19:03] <sgtcupcake> penguincsc: how to I recover my password? I've lost it and cant run any sudo commands
[19:03] <Penguincsc> sgtcupcake: try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/user-forgottenpassword.html
[19:03] <Felix713> @sgtcupcake: reboot in recovery mode and change passwd?
[19:03] <t432> nothing to do with windows
[19:03] <sgtcupcake> Penguincsc: Thanks! :D
[19:04] <sgtcupcake> Felix713: do i need to know my existing password?
[19:04] <i2out3r> so guys, can anyone help me with a problem playing avi files
[19:04] <i2out3r> sgtcupcake: nope, if you boot into single user mode you are root
[19:04] <Felix713> @sgtcupcake: can't remeber (probably) try the link fro Penguincsc
[19:05] <stueng> how do I get the GID or a group? I looked in /etc/passwd I dont see the group there

[19:05] <stueng> thanks
[19:05] <Penguincsc> stueng: try looking at /etc/groups
[19:06] <loco> shello

[19:06] <i2out3r> c'mon guys, pretty please hlep me
[19:06] <drecute> any chance that we will have a 11.10 release for libpam-unix2

[19:07] <Jordan_U> i2out3r: Please file a bug report against Totem (it's probably a bug in the particular gstreamer decoder, but the developers can sort that out and forward it properly). Have you tried VLC?
[19:08] <i2out3r> Jordan_U: VLC doesnt play the file at all
[19:08] <Jordan_U> i2out3r: What error message does it give?
[19:08] <sgtcupcake> Ok im going to try it! Thanks a million and God bless you all!
[19:08] <stueng> how do I make a permanent change to resolv.conf so it doesnt get wiped on reboot?

[19:09] <i2out3r> stueng: 10.5MB
[19:10] <i2out3r> maybe i could send on of you guys it, see if you guys can play it?
[19:10] <Felix713> I am experiencing latency (0.5 second freezes) whilst playing KBreakout on Ubuntu 12.04 Gnome 3 desktop on a quad core system with 4GB RAM.  I tried to run latencytop but it doesn't work. Troubleshooting suggestions would be appreciated. Thx
[19:10] <stueng> i2out3r: is that what you would expect it to be? that sound right? file not corrupt.. try play it with mplayer
[19:10] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: run the file command on the avi and tell us what it says
[19:10] <i2out3r> yeah, the file is only a short intro to a course
[19:10] <i2out3r> ok Penguincsc

[19:12] <fasta> What is the meaning of 'add information request'?
[19:13] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: It plays, but no sound and the picture is black, but flickers on every few seconds
[19:13] <cakehero> anyone know how I would unmount a software raid drive and mount it on another machine?
[19:13] <fasta> What kind of information request?
[19:13] <JessicaW> installing precise and installer doesn't detect internet connection. If I load live cd, finds internet fine. Suggestions?
[19:13] <fasta> (I am talking about Launchpad)
[19:13] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: when was the last time you rebooted your machine?
[19:14] <i2out3r> Hmmm, about 4 days ago
[19:14] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: ^^
[19:14] <fasta> JessicaW: type ping <IP_ADDRESS> in a terminal
[19:14] <JessicaW> cakehero: it's a little complicated. but yes. You have to make sure mdadm is installed on the machine your moving it to. you need to have the UUID.
[19:14] <fasta> JessicaW: also type ping <ip address of your router>
[19:14] <i2out3r> I'll reboot now Penguincsc and see if that helps.  back in a few mins guys
[19:14] <fasta> JessicaW: report both replies.
[19:14] <cakehero> JessicaW okay, the UUID I can get from mdadm --scan
[19:14] <JessicaW> fasta: can't load a terminal while the installer is running. if I boot to live cd I can ping out and resolve DNS just fine.
[19:14] <JessicaW> cakehero: yep
[19:15] <cakehero> JessicaW so what do I do from there?
[19:15] <fasta> JessicaW: I just installed from the graphical installer and then said 'install now' or something like that; by definition you should be able to complete an installation without internet access.
[19:16] <fasta> JessicaW: once installer is complete you can try to find ways to fix it, but it seems like an odd issue. What network chip are you using?
[19:16] <JessicaW> cakehero: unmount the array. stop the array. remove it from mdadm.
[19:16] <cakehero> JessicaW ok - done
[19:16] <cakehero> (the old machine is going away forever
[19:16] <Penguincsc> brian__:  try grub-customizer
[19:16] <cakehero> )
[19:16] <JessicaW> cakehero: one sec. I know there' s a tutorial on this.
[19:16] <cakehero> yeah i'm trying to find one, too
[19:16] <JessicaW> fasta: yeah, I just find it updates faster during the install than from the desktop.
[19:16] <fasta> JessicaW: so, I would suggest you just install without an internet connection and then you get a terminal to poke around with things.
[19:17] <fasta> JessicaW: also quite odd, but perhaps you are on underpowered hardware.
[19:17] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: No luck.   BCM5709
[19:18] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: did it ever play correctly
[19:18] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: it might be currupt
[19:19] <JessicaW> fasta: no way it's underpowered. 6 dell r610 on a ESX cluster. :D
[19:19] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: No, and I've downloaded it twice incase it was corrupted
[19:19] <JessicaW> fasta: and I never had this problem with 10 or 11. Let me try a 11 install real quick.
[19:19] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: can you play other avi files?
[19:19] <fasta> JessicaW: I would not waste time on installing 11.
[19:19] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: I haven't got any other avi files to try it out lol
[19:19] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: But all my other media works
[19:20] <JessicaW> fasta: meh. yeah. I'm just gonna install without the internet.
[19:20] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: all the other lessons are the same
[19:20] <fasta> JessicaW: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1850234
[19:20] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: is this 12.04?
[19:20] <stueng> I cant remember how much RAM the machine I am SSH onto has, what command? :P
[19:21] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: Yes, 12.04
[19:21] <axisys> I have this redhat init script http://paste.ubuntu.com/1013541/ .. need to convert it to ubuntu
[19:21] <stueng> i2out3r: do you have dropbox or something, upload the file?
[19:21] <axisys> what do I replace this with?
[19:21] <axisys> . /etc/init.d/functions
[19:21] <Penguincsc> stueng: lshw --hort
[19:21] <DarezGhost> guys, I'm having a problem with dual monitors on my system. I can see both monitors active, but one of the screens only has the ubuntu background on it. I can't drag windows into the screen. If I do that, it wraps around and comes back onto the same first monitor
[19:21] <Penguincsc> stueng: lshw --short
[19:21] <DarezGhost> how do i fix this
[19:21] <i2out3r> steung: no, don't have mush experience uploading files, what site should I register - or can I send it directly over to one of you guys to investigate?
[19:22] <JessicaW> fasta: thanks. not relevant. can't be a faulty NIC. It's virtual. I just ran a quick startup of the 11.10 installer and it finds the network. Same virtual machine. How weird is that?
[19:22] <axisys> it might be more appropriate question for #ubuntu-server.. i will ask there
[19:22] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: send us the url you d/l it from
[19:22] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: I am guessing it's a public file?
[19:22] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: It was a torrent :-S
[19:22] <stueng> i2out3r: right click me, DCC, send file
[19:22] <i2out3r> steung: OK!
[19:23] <fasta> JessicaW: perhaps you didn't forward your Internet?
[19:23] <JessicaW> cakehero: found this for you. seems like it should work. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=850229
[19:23] <cakehero> k
[19:23] <cakehero> JessicaW yes - just read it
[19:23] <stueng> thanks Penguincsc
[19:23] <i2out3r> stueng: Ok, I sent it over
[19:23] <fasta> JessicaW: unless you created a completely new 11.10 VM.
[19:23] <stueng> i2out3r: that isnt going to work, itr tryin to connect to localhost
[19:23] <JessicaW> cakehero: ahhh. sorry it took so long. did you try it? I've never really had problems with moving them before.
[19:23] <stueng> i2out3r: www.dropbox.com
[19:23] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: have you installed all the codecs?
[19:24] <Penguincsc> stueng: welcome
[19:24] <cakehero> JessicaW I'm trying it now, I'm taking down some of the services I forgot about as well and grabbing their config files
[19:24] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: I *think* so, I've installed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[19:24] <JessicaW> fasta: no, I have a vm with no OS installed. I connected 11.10 iso and started install. it finds internet. I cancel install. I connect the 12.04 iso and start install but it doesn't find the internet.
[19:25] <Felix713> i2out3r: you can email it to me at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(it's 10MB right?)
[19:25] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: w32codecs?
[19:25] <enzopitek> hello everyone does anyone have a problem with svn on ubuntu 10.04 lts amd from the last week ?
[19:25] <fasta> JessicaW: ok, then I think it's bug time.
[19:25] <JessicaW> cakehero: when I moved my array from one box to another, I didn't even have mdadm installed. I installed it and started it and it found the arrays for me.
[19:25] <i2out3r> Felix713: Sure I'll email it to you
[19:25] <JessicaW> fasta: I love to hear that. :D
[19:25] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: I dont think so?  is there a nifty apt-get command for it?
[19:25] <fasta> JessicaW: perhaps you can do an expert install?
[19:26] <cakehero> JessicaW it looks like that might be the case
[19:26] <cakehero> based on these articles
[19:26] <fasta> JessicaW: sometimes you can load extra drivers, etc. or perhaps you can select another chip in the configuration of the VM.
[19:26] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: try this: http://www.thelinuxgeeks.info/how-to-install-medibuntu-in-ubuntu-12-04/
[19:26] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[19:26] <i2out3r> Ok Penguincsc I'll report back my findings
[19:26] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: I think it's on the repos
[19:27] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: good luck
[19:27] <arooni-mobile> is disk utility accurate?  it says i have 52 "pending sectors"  (0 reallocated sectors)  but when i ran badblocks (:  sudo badblocks -b 512 /dev/sda -v ... got Pass completed, 0 bad blocks found. (0/0/0 errors)).... what i'm concerned about is ive seen 52 pending sectors in less than a week (its a brand new drive)
[19:27] <JessicaW> fasta: yeah. I could. but... I've wasted enough time on this already. It's a blow up box for my interns to play with. It's not that big a deal.
[19:27] <JessicaW> cakehero: I found it surprisingly simple.
[19:27] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: unable to locate package
[19:28] <sgtcupcake> howdy :)
[19:28] <DarezGhost> guys, I'm having a problem with dual monitors on my system. I can see both monitors active, but one of the screens only has the ubuntu background on it. I can't drag windows into the screen. If I do that, it wraps around and comes back onto the same first monitor
[19:28] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: right, it's part of the Medibuntu PPA - follow the howto I sent you and it will add it to your repos
[19:28] <DarezGhost> i can move the mouse pointer to both the monitors
[19:29] <JessicaW> fasta: holy wtf... I just started the install again and it found the internet... I think we're having DNS issues.   Just a real quick question about keyboard layouts...  How do I switch between US and UK keyboard layouts?  I selected US when installing, but it went ahead and chose UK for me?  I have 12.04 completely updated btw.
[19:29] <JessicaW> DarezGhost: is it mirrored by chance?
[19:29] <Penguincsc> DarezGhost: what's you video card
[19:29] <sgtcupcake> My b43 wireless card renders my machine unable to start because of missing firmware whenever i try to upgrade to version 12.04. Is there a fix?
[19:29] <fasta> JessicaW: it detects Linux installs and then refuses to run ;)
[19:29] <DarezGhost> Penguincsc: its actually virtualbox :P
[19:29] <JessicaW> fasta: lol
[19:29] <fasta> JessicaW: (interestingly enough, it could do that)
[19:29] <nkei0> sgtcupcake, Clean install?
[19:30] <DarezGhost> JessicaW: I'm using virtualbox, not sure if it is mirrored or not
[19:30] <i2out3r> Felix713: my mail provider only allows max of 2MB attachment size... > .<
[19:30] <cakehero> JessicaW okay good - I like simple
[19:30] <cakehero> JessicaW simple - like my mind
[19:30] <lemarc> sacarlson: it dint help :(
[19:30] <sgtcupcake> yes. I initially installed from live usb and it ran fine until i tried to upgrade
[19:30] <cakehero> I guess I can EC2 snapshot the two raid devices first just in case
[19:30] <Penguincsc> DarezGhost: it might be mirrored
[19:30] <OerHeks> sgtcupcake, use a cable
[19:30] <Felix713> @i2out3r: 2bad. Follow the Medibuntu instructions instead
[19:30] <JessicaW> DarezGhost: it's a setting under display. what version are you using?
[19:30] <Penguincsc> DarezGhost: have you installed the guest additions?
[19:31] <sgtcupcake> oerheks: from where to where?
[19:31] <DarezGhost> yes I installed the guest additions

[19:32] <DarezGhost> ooh i found it

[19:32] <DarezGhost> but it is horribly slow

[19:32] <DarezGhost> :S
[19:32] <sgtcupcake> oerheks: you probably think im a hopeless noob, but whats a utp cable and how would i go about using it to fix my issue?
[19:32] <JessicaW> DarezGhost: probably due to it being a VM.
[19:33] <JessicaW> DarezGhost: you can up the vid mem in your VB settings.
[19:33] <DarezGhost> yea trying that now
[19:33] <JessicaW> DarezGhost: cool.
[19:33] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: OK great installed w32codecs... here goes... wish me luck
[19:34] <DarezGhost> didn't do it :(
[19:34] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: good luck

[19:35] <sgtcupcake> Can anyone tell me how to use a utp cable to give my computer the firmware it needs to boot with my b43 wireless card?
[19:35] <Penguincsc> DarezGhost: might help.
[19:35] <Penguincsc> DarezGhost: what's the vid card?
[19:35] <DarezGhost> nvidia

[19:40] <airstrike> assuming ircd-hybrid is not just the name of the package
[19:40] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: hold on a sec...
[19:41] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: i think my isp just blocked my from accessing the site
[19:42] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: try this one.
[19:42] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Submenus?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=g2_submenu.png
[19:43] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: here goes...
[19:43] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: that's the grub menu. do you see that after your bios menu?
[19:43] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: Ok, so in totem, the sound is playing form the start, but screen still black and video flickers on, on VLC, the video plays flawlessly, but no sound.. perhaps I just play 2 vids at the same time huh? lol
[19:44] <Super_Random> hello
[19:44] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: interesting
[19:44] <Super_Random> I am having problems getting this headset working properly
[19:44] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: yes it do, but whenever i try to proceed to normal boot, i get an error message. i can never pass this screen
[19:44] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: Should I try another reboot?
[19:44] <zykotick9> i2out3r: you might want to try the gold-standard of linux media playback - mplayer
[19:44] <heresjohnny> i2out3r: do you have the output set to an alsa hw device?
[19:44] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: ok. that's a step in the right direction. what error does it give you exactly?>
[19:44] <Felix713> @i2out3r: in VLC you can try changing Tools>Preferences>Audio>Output module
[19:44] <i2out3r> heresjohnny: the output is actually through HDMI samsung tv
[19:45] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: it tells me that im missing the firmware for broadcom b43 wireless card
[19:45] <i2out3r> Felix713: I'll give it a go
[19:45] <i2out3r> Felix713: For some reason the video AND sound is now working in VLC!!  SUCCESS!!!! Thanks guys!!!
[19:45] <Harris> how do i add unity quicklist to ubuntu 12.04
[19:45] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: what's the EXACT error message.
[19:46] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: try this: sudo apt-get --yes install app-install-data-medibuntu apport-hooks-medibuntu
[19:46] <i2out3r> must have been w32codecs that did the trick
[19:46] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: Already installed! But it's now working in VLC! :-)
[19:46] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: both audio and video?
[19:47] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: im afraid i dont remember exactly :(
[19:47] <Felix713> i2out3r: Good news :-)
[19:47] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: does it go past that error message and continue to boot?
[19:47] <i2out3r> Penguincsc: Yep, both audio and video are now working in VLC.  Thanks so much guys.
[19:47] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: im afraid thats not much help :(
[19:47] <Harris>  how do i add unity quicklist to ubuntu 12.04
[19:47] <i2out3r> Felix713: Thanks!
[19:47] <Penguincsc> i2out3r: cool!
[19:47] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: no. the machine idles until i force it to shut down
[19:48] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: does the error message go by too fast to read?
[19:48] <Penguincsc> Harris: try installing Ubuntu Twek
[19:48] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: no. it remains on the screen
[19:48] <Harris> Penguincsc, what is the terminal code
[19:48] <Penguincsc> Harris: Tweak - that is the easiest
[19:49] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: sooo, is the problem on the computer your using or a different computer? can you reboot and get the error message? can't really do anything without that.
[19:49] <JessicaW> anyone remember the command to get ubuntu to confirm each step of the boot process?
[19:49] <JessicaW> *to get ubuntu to have the user confirm each step
[19:50] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: im afraid its with this machine :( I had to go back to version 11.10 :(
[19:50] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: thanks for your time! :D
[19:50] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: ahhh. ok. sorry. well, I would try to reboot into 12. write down the error message or take a pic with your phone.
[19:50] <wilee-nilee> JessicaW, each process?
[19:50] <beandog> JessicaW: I ?
[19:51] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: then boot back to 11 and let us know what it is.
[19:51] <JessicaW> yeah, so it asks you if you want to start "processname" y/n
[19:51] <sgtcupcake> jessicaw: roger that! thanks again!  Ill try that ASAP!
[19:51] <beandog> interactive boot
[19:51] <wilee-nilee> JessicaW, if it is a boot problem have them run the bootscript
[19:52] <wilee-nilee> !bootinfo
[19:52] <JessicaW> wilee-nilee: oooo. that's good info. that's what they need
[19:52] <JessicaW> sgtcupcake: did you catch that? what the ubottu just said?
[19:52] <augustl> hi folks. When I choose a sound card in the system settings, nothing happen. When I manually try to modprobe, I get "ERROR: Module snd_hda_intel is already in use". What should I do to fix it? I closed all apps that use sound.
[19:52] <wilee-nilee> JessicaW, yeah I just glanced at the channel I have been busy. :)

[20:01] <Banan^> hi guys - got a problem with my raid 1 - after ubuntu 12.04 upgrade, I can't find it. It shows up perfectly well in the hardware controller, as a raid 1 - but I can't see it in ubuntu .. ? Any ideas? sudo fdisk -l and cat /etc/fstab here -> http://pastebin.com/MbSM5KaH
[20:02] <CT1> Penguincsc: I have a private VPN server already running in the UK. I can use it with windows but in ubuntu I don't have web access (only access to the local machines on that network in the UK)
[20:03] <vlt> Penguincsc: Check your default route.
[20:03] <vlt> barna: What does `blkid` look like?
[20:03] <vlt> Banan^: ^
[20:03] <Cerrdor> can anyone recommend a good ircd to install on my server?
[20:05] <augustl> one of my sound cards (a USB DAC) is missing a sink in pulse audio, so no audio can play through it. It worked earlier today. Can I reload pulseaudio somehow?
[20:05] <augustl> don't want to bite the dust and reboot :P
[20:05] <CT1> vlt: In windows I had to specify dns server(s) then it worked. How do I change the route in ubuntu using the GUI? do I change something in "wired connection 1" or "my vpn"?
[20:07] <augustl> managed to restart pulse, got it working now. TODO: Learn pulse.
[20:09] <Jordan_U> Banan^: As vlt asked, please pastebin the output of "sudo blkid".
[20:09] <vlt> CT1: I don’t know how GUI tools work. You can check your current routing settings with `ip route` and the DNS with `cat /etc/resolv.conf`
[20:10] <jdv> the command line will not let me enter my [sudo] password in order to complete a command. I can type but the screen shows none of the text i just typed. Did i do something wrong?
[20:10] <Banan^> sudo blkid comming up
[20:10] <Banan^> :)
[20:10] <CT1> vlt: Thanks.  I'll do a little more googling.
[20:11] <prophit> Hi guys - I'm running desktop 12.04 on a VirtualBox VM - I've got two network adapters.. one is NAT, and the other is Host-Only so I can SSH into the VM. If I run Firefox I'm able to access the internet on the VM, but I can't ping anything via command line. Any suggestions where to look to try and fix this?
[20:11] <Penguincsc> CT1: what do you use under windows?  PPTP
[20:13] <prophit> augustl: how do I find out what the IP address of the guest is in that situation?
[20:14] <augustl> prophit: not actually sure what system that does the resolving there.. but "ip addr" from inside the vm lists it
[20:14] <augustl> prophit: avahi/bonjour is nice to have in these kinds of situations, so that all you need to know is the hostname
[20:14] <augustl> in case you don't want to figure out how to somehow get the IP from virtualbox :)
[20:16] <jdv> why does the command line not acknowledge the text i just typed when it asks for my [sudo] password? how do i fix it?
[20:16] <mcphail> jdv: it is a feature, not a bug
[20:16] <jdv> mcphail: how do i work around it?
[20:17] <zykotick9> !password | jdv
[20:17] <mcphail> jdv: you don't. Echoing a password is futile and dangerous
[20:17] <jdv> im struggling to understand...
[20:17] <microm> I no longer see ncsvc in ~/.juniper_networks/network_connect, and the download from the vpn firewall is not giving it to me (everything else is there though)
[20:18] <augustl> jdv: you're referring to the fact that sudo doesn't give any feedback as you type? That's normal
[20:18] <mcphail> jdv: sudo is reading your keypresses. It simply won't print "*" on the screen for each letter
[20:18] <jdv> augustl: but nothing happens after i finish typing!
[20:18] <augustl> jdv: you press enter I guess? :P
[20:19] <jdv> augustl: i hit [enter] too
[20:19] <augustl> jdv: so `sudo ls`, your password, then enter, and nothing happens?
[20:20] <jdv> augustl: hold on a sec and ill try that :)
[20:20] <augustl> perhaps it's the command you're running that doesn't actually do anything
[20:20] <augustl> also, by command line, do you mean the Terminal? Or alt+f2, or something else?
[20:20] <Banan^> vlt: sudo blkid @ http://pastebin.com/jrUsdRtj
[20:20] <Banan^> Jordan_U: see above =)
[20:21] <jdv> augustl: i mean Terminal
[20:22] <jdv> augustl: i was trying to run the command: "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer
[20:22] <Jordan_U> Banan^: Since you're using FakeRAID, rather than true hardware RAID or linux software RAID, you'll need to make sure you have dmraid installed.
[20:23] <augustl> jdv: "sudo cwd" might be a bit better, it will always print something, "ls" might not print if the dir you're in is empty
[20:23] <augustl> jdv: just to test that it works
[20:23] <augustl> not sure why apt-get install wouldn't print anything..
[20:23] <gilesfun> hi
[20:23] <jdv> augustl: ill try that
[20:23] <jdv> gilesfun: hi :)
[20:23] <gilesfun> anyone need some ubuntu help
[20:23] <gilesfun> Im here to help
[20:24] <dagerik> me too
[20:24] <jdv> augustl: i tried that. i asks for my [sudo] password
[20:24] <augustl> jdv: right, then you enter the password, and hit the enter key? Then what happens?
[20:24] <marke> any real difference between rsync over ssh vs rsync through ssh tunnel (via localhost) ?
[20:24] <augustl> marke: only that it'll do two SSH's :)
[20:24] <Banan^> Jordan_U: I can type dmraid -h and get a list of options
[20:25] <marke> the former or latter?
[20:25] <augustl> marke: ssh tunnels are transparent functionality wise. You'll obviously get everything double encrypted etc though
[20:25] <Jordan_U> gilesfun: dagerik: No need to announce you're availability (and please don't as it just adds clutter). Simply wait around and if you see a question you can help with, respond with help :)
[20:25] <jdv> augustl: is my [sudo] password different than my login password?
[20:25] <Banan^> Jordan_U: but a little concerned you call it fakeraid - it's a hardware controller on a pci card?
[20:25] <marke> ah I see
[20:25] <augustl> jdv: sudo ask for your login password, yes
[20:26] <jdv> augustl: whenever i try to type that in, i get no feedback onscreen and hitting enter produces no response
[20:26] <marke> ssh tunnel essentially allows me to whitelist only the loopback on rsyncd on the server that's why I was considering it
[20:26] <augustl> jdv: so "sudo pwd", you enter your password, hit enter, what happens exactly?
[20:27] <marke> not sure if that's a good enough reason though
[20:27] <Jordan_U> Banan^: It's FakeRAID because all of the RAID functionality is on Software / BIOS Option ROMS which use the CPU and the system's main RAM to do all the work (and less efficiently than native linux software RAID at that).
[20:27] <augustl> hardware raids are actually quite rare. I bought a raid hardware card without investigating and it turns out that too was fake raid. It was just a SATA card basically
[20:27] <jdv> augustl: it prompts me for my [sudo] password
[20:28] <augustl> jdv: right, and when you type in your password and hit the enter key, what happens exactly? Do you just get a new prompt? It doesn't print the path to the directory you're in?
[20:28] <Varikonniemi> hello, i am having problems getting gnome-shell to work on my ubuntu server installation. Unity works fine but gnome-shell fails into fallback mode
[20:28] <Jordan_U> augustl: They're quite common for server hardware, but also very expensive. I don't think I've ever seen true hardware RAID for the consumer market.
[20:29] <wilhart> what is channel for mint?
[20:29] <Jordan_U> !mint | wilhart
[20:29] <jdv> augustl: it worked!! i got the file directory im in!!
[20:30] <augustl> Jordan_U, Banan^: having troubles with setting up fake raid btw? I've done that before
[20:30] <jdv> augustl: now can i run the command i was trying to run in the first place?
[20:30] <Banan^> ah - ok makes sense, thanks for the clarification ;)
[20:30] <augustl> jdv: yay, what did you do differently this time?
[20:30] <Banan^> augustl: I can't see my raid1
[20:30] <Banan^> I can see the disks, but they are not "mounted" anywhere afaik
[20:31] <jdv> augustl: I typed my full password, even though i got no text on the screen as i hit the keys, and then hit [enter]
[20:31] <augustl> Banan^: at what time? Boot/GRUB, or after you've logged in?
[20:31] <augustl> jdv: cool, that's how sudo works :)
[20:31] <Banan^> I see the disks when using the sudo fdisk -l command
[20:31] <jdv> augustl: thank you so much for your help and your time!! God bless!! :) :) :)
[20:32] <Banan^> and I see them on the controller card during boot, when going into the setup using ctrl+s
[20:32] <guntbert> jdv: thats how password entry in CLI always works - no visual feedback
[20:32] <augustl> jdv: hehe no probs
[20:32] <augustl> Banan^: so you want them to mount automatically? You don't boot from a raid?
[20:32] <jdv> guntbert: ahh........
[20:32] <Banan^> no, I boot from a small ssd
[20:32] <jdv> guntbert: this is my first linux machin
[20:33] <Banan^> I had them "mounted" before ubuntu went to 12.04
[20:33] <stevio> Anyone available to help with a Flash problem in Xubuntu 11?
[20:33] <guntbert> jdv: take your time - you will learn what you need :-)
[20:33] <augustl> Banan^: good, booting from raid is hard..
[20:33] <jdv> guntbert: im training to become a linux ninja and then i can carry  sword and wear a cool mask. you cant rush these things ;)
[20:33] <jdv> guntbert: thanks man!
[20:35] <augustl> Banan^: iirc you just need to load the correct kernel module and you'll have /dev for the disk and you can just add it to the fstab
[20:35] <augustl> sec, refreshing my memory a bit ;)
[20:35] <stevio> Anyone know why Flash might work in Chrome but not in Opera or Firefox? In those browsers, Flash seems to load, but it's just a black box. Running Xubuntu 11, recently installed.
[20:35] <FreeGeekVan> HP photo scanner 1000, anyone have success using it with 12.04. If so how?
[20:35] <augustl> Banan^: the module is dmraid, the dev will be in /dev/mapper/something-something
[20:36] <augustl> Banan^: that device will be a plain block device, so it will be transparent to fstab and what not that it's actually a raid
[20:36] <augustl> Banan^: so add dmraid to /etc/modules and have lunch!
[20:36] <Banan^> augustl: soooo .. exactly how would I go about doing that? :)
[20:37] <greg> Hi all.  Noob here.  Anyone know of a good search app for Ubuntu?
[20:38] <greg>  Hi all.  Noob here.  Anyone know of a good search app for Ubuntu?
[20:38] <Arkangel> HELLO WORLD, glad to be on the #ubuntu channel :D
[20:38] <greg> Need a good file search app...
[20:39] <RGErrDay> hello
[20:39] <RGErrDay> Hola!
[20:39] <xrdodrx> I have a Logitech Wireless Mouse and it's not working at all in Ubuntu 12.04...what can I do?
[20:39] <xrdodrx> an m510
[20:40] <augustl> Banan^: think this should work. 1) apt-get intsall dmraid 2) add the line "dmraid" without quotes to /etc/modules 3) try to mount it, mount /dev/mapper/your-raid-here /path/to/any/folder 4) if it works, add "/dev/mapper/your-raid-here /path/to/any/folder ntfs defaults 0 1" without quotes to /etc/fstab
[20:40] <OerHeks> greg open terminal: locate <filename> or nautilus: hit ctrl + f(ind)
[20:40] <augustl> Banan^: you probably already have dmraid though? If not, how did you set up your raid?
[20:40] <Banan^> augustl: it looks like I have dmraid
[20:41] <augustl> you probably used it to set up the raid in the first place
[20:41] <augustl> oh wait, the module is called "dm_mod", not "dmraid"
[20:41] <oem> HP photo scanner 1000, anyone have success using this with 12.04, if so how?
[20:41] <Banan^> augustl: if I write dmraid in terminal, it returns ERROR: no arguments/options given (-h for help)
[20:41] <greg> Thanks OerHeks, but isn't there a good GUI one?
[20:41] <radzior> why my flash player wont start in ubuntu 12.04?
[20:41] <augustl> Banan^: you're not supposed to write "dmraid" in terminal to make it work though :)
[20:41] <greg> I know there's a lot of terminal stuff for me to learn but for now I'd like a simple GUI app.
[20:42] <Banan^> dm_mod: command not found
[20:42] <Banan^> :/
[20:42] <augustl> Banan^: you're not supposed to write dm_mod in the terminal either :P
[20:42] <augustl> it's a kernel module, as I said you should add it to /etc/modules
[20:42] <Banan^> ah .. I knew that =)
[20:42] <radzior> od modprobe it
[20:42] <augustl> Banan^: try to load the module first if you want, "modprobe dm_raid"
[20:42] <radzior> or*
[20:42] <OerHeks> greg nautilus: hit ctrl + f(ind)
[20:43] <Banan^> dm_raid or dmraid ?
[20:43] <augustl> dm_raid iirc
[20:43] <radzior> does anybody have issues with flashplayer in firefox?
[20:43] <augustl> you won't break your system if you try both, you'll just get an error message if it doesn't exist
[20:43] <greg> I've used the ctrl+f function (it launches when I start typing too) but it only searches the folder that you are currently in.  I am looking for a global search app.
[20:44] <radzior> ive installed it and it just wont run even youtube dont know where to look for an error
[20:45] <greg> BTW, I think Ubuntu rules
[20:45] <arooni-mobile> is disk utility accurate?  it says i have 52 "pending sectors"  (0 reallocated sectors)  but when i ran badblocks (:  sudo badblocks -b 512 /dev/sda -v ... got Pass completed, 0 bad blocks found. (0/0/0 errors)).... what i'm concerned about is ive seen 52 pending sectors in less than a week (its a brand new drive)
[20:45] <Cerrdor> Anyone have experience with ngircd?
[20:45] <greg> Ok, need to restart.  Be back shortly.
[20:45] <Cerrdor> the IRC daemon
[20:46] <augustl> Banan^: any progress?
[20:47] <RGErrDay> Well this is quite full
[20:47] <Banan^> augustl: well .. modprobe dm_raid returned a lot of errors; http://pastebin.com/gSBqQxWJ
[20:48] <Banan^> so I did a sudo modprobe dm_raid -- and that just returned nothing
[20:48] <RGErrDay> Hey
[20:48] <augustl> Banan^: ya you need to do kernel module stuff as root
[20:48] <augustl> Banan^: modprobe returning nothing = good
[20:49] <augustl> Banan^: general tip, run "echo $?" to see the status code of the previous command, 0 = success
[20:49] <Banan^> returns 0 :)
[20:50] <OerHeks> arooni-mobile, technically those 52 pending sectors are spare sectors on your drive  aka s.m.a.r.t.  "reallocated" sectors are called remaps
[20:50] <OerHeks> arooni-mobile, and remaps are faulty sectors, so you are fine
[20:50] <augustl> Banan^: yay, module is loaded. Try "ls /dev/mapper, should list some fancy stuff
[20:50] <Banan^> augustl: cool! I See the disk!
[20:51] <augustl> nice, now make a new empty dir and mount /dev/mapper/wtf /path/to/your/new/dir
[20:51] <augustl> should Just Work
[20:51] <Banan^> well I can access it perfectly as is
[20:51] <Banan^> and all my wonderful data =D
[20:51] <augustl> oh
[20:51] <osmosis> join #ubuntu-server
[20:51] <augustl> not sure what I'm helping you with then :)
[20:51] <Banan^> so it'll automagically load up upon every boot now?
[20:52] <augustl> ah, that was the problem
[20:52] <augustl> first, what did you do to mount the raid before?
[20:53] <Banan^> have no idea - I had it running under windows 2003, then the system disk died. Bought a SSD and decided to give Ubuntu a try. It worked perfectly, saw all my data on the raid, no problem - then Ubuntu did the 12.04 upgrade - and the raid disk was gone.
[20:53] <augustl> but you have it mounted now?
[20:53] <Banan^> I didn't do anything to mount it under Ubuntu - I just installed the system on the new ssd
[20:54] <schultza> is this a hardware raid?
[20:54] <g3orge> what are the test directories along with the src in some projects?
[20:54] <augustl> Banan^: so ubuntu DID automatically mount it? Because it's mounted right now, and you didn't manually moung it?
[20:54] <augustl> mount*
[20:54] <augustl> g3orge: the automated tests typically
[20:54] <Banan^> it's a pci sata raid controller card
[20:55] <g3orge> which do what?? augustl
[20:55] <schultza> ubuntu live saw this and you installed on raid or on the ssd seperately?
[20:55] <augustl> g3orge: scripts created by the programmers that execute the program and see if it worked correctly
[20:55] <g3orge> oh
[20:55] <mcphail> g3orge: if you change anything in the source, run the tests to see if it still works
[20:55] <g3orge> nice
[20:55] <Banan^> schultza: I install Ubuntu on the new SSD disk, having the Raid 1 running along it with just data.
[20:56] <g3orge> are they executable the most times?
[20:56] <schultza> what's backing up the ssd under raid 1?
[20:56] <augustl> typically there's a framework being used, and a specific way to run the tests. Not familiar with how C projects does it, but I guess it's in the Makefile with "make test" etc
[20:56] <mcphail> g3orge: usually run "make test"
[20:56] <JensenDan> where are my favorites from FF saved?
[20:56] <augustl> JensenDan: in ~/.mozilla/firefox
[20:57] <zamba> how can i disable a service at start up in ubuntu?
[20:57] <g3orge> thx
[20:57] <Banan^> augustl: I did nothing to mount anything -- I just installed Ubuntu on the SSD .. tbh I don't recall if I did anything special related to the raid 1 during install or after first boot .. but seeing that I'm a complete *nix newbie, I doubt I would have figured that out without asking =D
[20:57] <zamba> redhat-based distros have chkconfig <service> off
[20:57] <zamba> and busybox has /etc/init.d/service disable
[20:57] <augustl> Banan^: so it seems like there is no problem then? :) It's automatically mounted, all is good?
[20:57] <zamba> what about ubuntu?
[20:58] <schultza> augustl: i think he is saying that it's not booting
[20:58] <Banan^> no, it's booting fine
[20:58] <schultza> ah, ok
[20:58] <Banan^> I couldn't see the raid 1 data
[20:58] <schultza> what's the problem?
[20:58] <Banan^> after ubuntu 12.04 update
[20:58] <Banan^> before 12.04 I could see the data
[20:58] <debsan> zamba, /etc/init.d/service stop
[20:59] <augustl> zamba: ut used to be update-rc.d, not sure if that sill applies in 12.04 though
[20:59] <zamba> debsan: that's for STOPPING it, yeah, but i want to prevent it from booting
[20:59] <Banan^> all I did to resolve the problem (as it seems) was running "sudo modprobe dm_raid"
[20:59] <Banan^> so .. THANKS :D
[20:59] <augustl> zamba: update-rc.d is mentioned in the man page for "service" though so I guess it still applies. But yeah, now I'm just guessing
[20:59] <debsan> zamba, rcconf
[20:59] <augustl> Banan^: ah, cool
[21:00] <zamba> debsan: what's that?
[21:00] <augustl> Banan^: make sure you add it to /etc/modules too. Edit the file with gedit or something and just add one line
[21:00] <schultza> i havent dealt with raid.. so i was trying to look it up
[21:00] <schultza> dm_raid, huh?
[21:01] <Banan^> augustl: what line do I want to add to /etc/modules ?
[21:01] <augustl> schultza: yeah that's for managing fakeraids
[21:01] <augustl> Banan^: just "dm_raid", that's enough to make it load at boot
[21:01] <Banan^> right now it just have a few comments and a single line with lp
[21:01] <Banan^> ok
[21:01] <augustl> yeah, add a new line below lp
[21:01] <Banan^> what's lp doing here?
[21:01] <augustl> lp is another module
[21:01] <Banan^> ah
[21:03] <harshad> command scheduled using 'at' command can't be excuted
[21:03] <trism> zamba: if it is an upstart service (the job file is in /etc/init/) then see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#disabling-a-job-from-automatically-starting
[21:04] <Banan^> augustl: thanks a million bro, you saved me around 100 gbs of photos and video captured since 1999 .. =) well, I do have a backup but that haven't been updated since november last year ..
[21:04] <augustl> Banan^: haha nice
[21:04] <Banan^> speaking of which - can anyone recommend a good backup utility for ubuntu?
[21:04] <Banan^> =)
[21:04] <augustl> Banan^: btw, I'm kind of amazed it just worked, I thought dmraid could only manage raids created with dmraid
[21:04] <schultza> jeez.. keep them updated :)
[21:05] <augustl> Banan^: what did you use to create the raid originally?
[21:05] <Banan^> well I made it under windows 2003
[21:06] <augustl> nice, TIL
[21:06] <augustl> Banan^: for backup, I use dropbox for important stuff, and manually dumping stuff to various servers and s3 and what not for remote backups..
[21:07] <Banan^> also .. you saved my picassa face recognition database .. phhhhew .. spent MONTHS building that thing ;)
[21:07] <Banan^> well, just did a count - I have 138 gb's of photos
[21:07] <Banan^> I'm not gonna dropbox that shit on any old cloud with my ADSL connection
[21:07] <augustl> Banan^: yeah I also use picasa for photos
[21:08] <augustl> basically I don't really have anything I need to back up.. My code is all over various servers via version control, photos on picasa, private keys locked down somewhere, and so on
[21:08] <osmosis> why is munin-node-configure not suggesting the 'memory' graph on 12.04?
[21:08] <Banan^> got a 2tb external drive with the backup data, just want to add data to that incrementally
[21:10] <augustl> Banan^: I just started listening to music as FLACs though, so I need to find a method for backing up my music collection..
[21:16] <Benxyzzy> I wrote a perl script, ran it with & (background) via ssh and then closed the ssh session. The perl script continued running in my absence. I just ran a downloaded program (rtorrent) with &, tried to exit, and got a "there are stopped jobs" message. What's the difference between these two?
[21:16] <Cerrdor> how do I enable colors in terminal?
[21:16] <Cerrdor> file=this color tar=this color etc?
[21:16] <Banan^> augustl: so let me know what backup software you'll run with =)
[21:17] <augustl> Banan^: I like the terminal so I'll probably use http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ or something ;)
[21:17] <wawowe> Benxyzzy: type bg before you exit
[21:18] <Benxyzzy> wawowe: I did, rtorrent continued in the background, I typed exit, I got the "there are stopped jobs" message again
[21:18] <Erealz> need quiky favor
[21:18] <Erealz> is anyone running ubuntu 64bit?
[21:19] <Benxyzzy> Erealz: Many people I should think
[21:19] <wawowe> Benxyzzy: rtorrent isn't meant to run in the background
[21:19] <Erealz> yes
[21:19] <DMASS> Benxyzzy: try  nohup  cmd  &
[21:19] <Erealz> but
[21:19] <Erealz> is anyone right now ?
[21:19] <MonkeyDust> !enter| Erealz
[21:19] <wawowe> Benxyzzy: run it in screen and ctrl+a d
[21:19] <Erealz> sorry
[21:20] <MonkeyDust> Erealz  don't ask to ask, just ask
[21:20] <Erealz> i just did
[21:20] <Erealz> is anyone running ubuntu 64bit
[21:20] <schultza> ok. why are you asking if anyone is running 64 bit?
[21:20] <Erealz> i need a copy of sources.list
[21:20] <ale9> Hello
[21:21] <Erealz> i hosed mine now im getting all kinds of 401 lines
[21:21] <schultza> ale9: hi
[21:21] <Erealz> i just need a fresh copy
[21:21] <wawowe> Benxyzzy: the difference is a program that depends on the current shell and one that can run independently
[21:21] <schultza> on sources.list, is there a difference between 32 and 64 bit?
[21:21] <zykotick9> schultza: no - they're the same
[21:21] <schultza> !sources
[21:21] <Erealz> just in case i like to be thrall
[21:22] <Benxyzzy> DMASS : Thja
[21:22] <Erealz> come guys realy now one can hook me up?
[21:22] <ale9> a question, which file system to use for a SDD?
[21:22] <cccangel> hey guys im on ubuntu 12.04 lts and i got a printer server already setup and shared and i got another computer trying to connect but I have this error "Processing - not connected".  what can i do?
[21:22] <t432> I have the /home directory in seperate partition, it works fine but noticed when using eclipse ide i have to set the "workspace" from "/home" to "/root" to install software....what could be the problem?
[21:22] <Benxyzzy> DMASS / Erealz L Thanks for the nohup & screen info, looks like what I want. It's funny that I didn't need to do this with my perl script is all; maybe it's because the script wasn't interactive / awaiting input
[21:23] <wawowe> Erealz: get it the same way you go the last one
[21:23] <MonkeyDust> Erealz  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1013763/
[21:23] <Erealz> wowowe chill out
[21:24] <wawowe> Erealz: no!
[21:24] <Erealz> what your problem im asking for help and you respond with tthat
[21:24] <Erealz> you know how everyone get the file witch install the system
[21:24] <Erealz> right
[21:24] <wawowe> Erealz: you go to ubuntu.com and download the iso
[21:24] <Erealz> so what you want me to reinstall my entire system all over again?
[21:25] <schultza> he doesnt want to reinstall the whole thing again
[21:25] <schultza> he may be on a dialup
[21:25] <wawowe> Erealz: maybe i misunderstood what you were asking for
[21:25] <schultza> he has a corrupted sources.list
[21:25] <Praxi> hmm not sure if I'm searching for the right terms.  When I grab the corner of a window to resize it, the area I can grab is insanely small.  Is that called "Grab Handles" for my googling?
[21:26] <Erealz> apparently
[21:26] <wawowe> Erealz: running 12.04?
[21:26] <Erealz> forget man this guy hooked me up
[21:26] <bastidrazor> Praxi: you can use alt + middle click to resize the window
[21:26] <MonkeyDust> Erealz  I just pasted my sources.list
[21:26] <schultza> Erealz: lsb_release -a will tell what version you are running. Or use Monkey's
[21:26] <Erealz> thanks to monkey
[21:26] <Erealz> yea
[21:27] <Erealz> thank bro your leet.
[21:27] <Erealz> this other guy
[21:27] <Erealz> not so much.
[21:27] <Praxi> thanks bastidrazor that helps, is there any way to make those grab handles bigger for when I maybe forget your helpful tip? :)
[21:28] <MonkeyDust> Erealz  don't forget to sudo apt-get update after pasting it in /etc/apt/
[21:28] <sqwertle> I accidentally deleted the gnome notification panel (time, power options, connection stuff) and I can't find a way to reinstate it. Right clicking and alt+Right clicking does not bring up any panel options.
[21:28] <Erealz> yup you know it bro.
[21:28] <Erealz> thanks.
[21:28] <Benxyzzy> What does the c in crwx stand for? As in, the permissions string that ls -l gives. The c is where d would be for a directory
[21:28] <bastidrazor> Praxi: i do not know, i've always used alt+middle click since ..ever
[21:29] <Praxi> haha k, thanks bastidrazor :)
[21:31] <cccangel> hey guys i am having trouble connecting to my printer that is connected to another laptop in ubuntu 12.04 LTS, can someone please please help me?
[21:31] <zykotick9> Benxyzzy: "c denotes a character special file" i'm not really sure what that means though...
[21:31] <Benxyzzy> zyykotick9: Ah, that makes sense, thanks
[21:31] <sqwertle> Right clicking on the panel (as well as alt+right clicking) does not bring up any options at all.
[21:31] <zykotick9> !tab > Benxyzzy
[21:32] <Benxyzzy> :)
[21:32] <augustl> sqwertle: you could always delete all the configurations so it'll recreate the next time you log in..
[21:32] <sqwertle> augustl: How would I go about doing that?
[21:33] <augustl> sqwertle: it's probably in ~/.config somewhere
[21:33] <augustl> or perhaps ~/.gconf or ~/.gnome (just guessing now)
[21:33] <prophit> augustl: I removed my VM's host-only adapter, verified that I can still access the internet via Firefox on the guest, but I still can't ping anything from the CLI. Seems like Firefox is able to resolve some proxy settings that ping can't?
[21:34] <augustl> prophit: hmm, do you have any proxies running on your network?
[21:34] <prophit> yes
[21:35] <augustl> sounds likely that firefox is able to automatically detect some proxy stuff, but not sure, never used proxies
[21:35] <augustl> not sure how Virtualbox NAT behaves with proxies on the host
[21:35] <prophit> augustl: I was hoping it would rely on the host machine for proxy settings
[21:35] <Okeanos> can i ask a question?
[21:35] <zykotick9> !ask | Okeanos
[21:36] <augustl> prophit: that would have been my guess too :)
[21:38] <Okeanos> I have age of Mythology but don't have a graphics card, so i tried to bypass this, by using 3d analyzer, this seemed to have worked, however, after the loading screen, the screen just went black showing the cursor, and still had sound. I hoped someone could help me with this?
[21:41] <nwilson5> OerHeks (i was asking about the device_boot_led before) - i eventually reset bios and unplugged everything, tested with one stick of ram and got all my hdds to work etc. turns out i *think* to be a faulty stick of ram.
[21:41] <nwilson5> i'm able to boot now magically and i'm running memtest
[21:41] <nwilson5> memtest is failing at some point and i'm not exactly sure how to tell which stick of ram it is that is failing, but it's at least something
[21:42] <Okeanos> I have age of Mythology but don't have a graphics card, so i tried to bypass this, by using 3d analyzer, this seemed to have worked, however, after the loading screen, the screen just went black showing the cursor, and still had sound. I hoped someone could help me with this?
[21:42] <vlt> Hello. When I run ffmpeg I get the following message: “This program is not developed anymore and is only provided for compatibility. Use avconv instead (see Changelog for the list of incompatible changes).” This doesn’t seem to be true. Who wrote this and why?
[21:42] <nwilson5> imbezol, too. since you were helping me before. think it's a ram issue (what i said ^^)
[21:42] <zykotick9> Okeanos: #winehq is the wine channel - if you "don't have a graphics card" how are you planning on seeing the game?
[21:43] <cdj> Hey does anybody know if by using two WiFi cards I can make a WiFi hotspot of a Wifi network I'm connected to?
[21:43] <cdj> my laptop gets wifi where my iphone can't, so I'd like to make my laptop a wifi extender, if you will
[21:43] <schultza> you mean a wifi repeater?
[21:43] <cdj> yeah
[21:43] <vlt> cdj: Yes, (though that must be possible also with only one card ).
[21:43] <wawowe> cdj: you could do it with one
[21:44] <cdj> really?
[21:44] <schultza> it should be possible.. linux can use sub.interfaces
[21:44] <cdj> I read somewhere you have to have two, one in listening and one in broadcast mode :/
[21:44] <imbezol> nwilson5: test with one stick at a time
[21:44] <bastidrazor> !ics | cdj
[21:44] <cdj> though my phone can do it, serve as a wifi hotspot while being connected to wifi...
[21:44] <imbezol> nwilson5: if you find a single bad stick, test again with that same stick in a different slot
[21:45] <Okeanos> I have age of Mythology but don't have a graphics card, so i tried to bypass this, by using 3d analyzer, this seemed to have worked, however, after the loading screen, the screen just went black showing the cursor, and still had sound. I hoped someone could help me with this?
[21:45] <vlt> !repeat | Okeanos
[21:45] <Jordan_U> vlt: Why do you think it's not true?
[21:45] <cdj> bastidrazor: will read, thanks!
[21:45] <zykotick9> !repeat | Okeanos
[21:45] <ReZK2LL> http://www.zone-h.org/mirror/id/17752220 you need see this ;)
[21:45] <vlt> Jordan_U: ffmpeg just released a new version a few days ago.
[21:45] <Studious> hello linux world
[21:46] <schultza> When testing memory. It can either be a memory problem or a motherboard port/interface problem...
[21:47] <osmosis> all I want is a lcd keyboard that dynamically changes key positions based on my finger spacing so I can stretch out
[21:47] <Okeanos> apparently several people have managed to use age of mythololgy without a graphics card, so i was trying to follow their example
[21:47] <osmosis> Okeanos, whats age of mythology? link?
[21:47] <schultza> age of mythology is a 3d game
[21:48] <Penguincsc> Studious: you have a uestion?
[21:48] <Penguincsc> question
[21:49] <nwilson5> ok imbezol , i'll test them all. may take a while 8gb a stick , 8 sticks lol. thanks for your help throughout
[21:49] <Okeanos> well apparently many people have managed to download some sort of 3d processor
[21:50] <cccangel> Hey guys i am getting "Processing - The printer is not responding." when trying to connect to my printer.  What am I possibly overlooking?
[21:50] <MonkeyDust> Okeanos  is it in wine?
[21:50] <Okeanos> what is wine?
[21:50] <Penguincsc> cccangel: is it ready?
[21:50] <schultza> !wine | Okeanos
 what is wine
[21:51] <cccangel> Penguincsc, its ready on the host computer but i get that error on the connecting printer.
[21:51] <Penguincsc> cccangel: maybe it's out of paper?
[21:51] <cccangel> Penguincsc, nope. i get that error when i try to get remote computer to connect to the host computer
[21:51] <Okeanos> how do u put the name in red?
[21:51] <cccangel> Penguincsc, the printer prints just fine
[21:51] <schultza> Okeanos: most clients will do that when it's your name with : at the end...
[21:51] <Penguincsc> maybe it's a permissions issue
[21:52] <cccangel> hmm
[21:52] <schultza> Okeanos: the name and : has to be leading the line
[21:52] <Penguincsc> cccaldas: try checking the CUPS settings (server menu)
[21:52] <Okeanos> schultza: is that it?
[21:52] <tetris4> hello, am trying to import the ubuntu one client on Chakra, is there some channel dedicated to one?
[21:52] <zykotick9> i don't think so schultza
[21:52] <schultza> Okeanos: yes, but my client doesnt do that, unfortunately.. thats why i said most clients
[21:53] <czz> What's a easy vnc server to setup and connect to?
[21:53] <Jordan_U> vlt: Odd, it seems that libav and ffmpeg are two different projects who share almost the same website and don't mention the other. It's hard to tell from their websites how they relate to each other.
[21:53] <schultza> czz: running vnc locally or across the Internet?
[21:53] <MonkeyDust> tetris4  what's chakra?
[21:53] <Penguincsc> czz: what do you need it for? I like the Google Chrome Remote Desktop
[21:53] <UBuxuBU> its a linux distro
[21:54] <cccangel> Penguincsc, now i tried to do an ipp address and it gives me "Stopped - The printer URI is incorrect or no longer exists."
[21:54] <tetris4> MonkeyDust: a distribution =)
[21:54] <czz> schmidtm, Across the Internet.
[21:54] <czz> Penguincsc, I want to connect to a honeypot.
[21:54] <cccangel> gah im stuck... can someone help me connect to my cups server / setup printer sharing!? please.

[21:54] <MonkeyDust> tetris4  36 nicknames in the #chakra channel
[21:54] <Penguincsc> cccangel: 12.04?
[21:54] <schultza> czz: you will need to secure it with a tunnel then. that complicates the setup
[21:54] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes
[21:55] <schultza> and slows it down
[21:55] <venta7> trying to get ubuntu 12.04 and windows 7 dual boot on the same hard drive
[21:55] <tetris4> MonkeyDust: 35 now that you left =P
[21:55] <Picto> hey Penguinscs, im famille, thank you :)
[21:55] <Jordan_U> tetris4: #ubuntuone
[21:55] <Picto> look provate message
[21:55] <czz> schultza, No need to secure it.
[21:55] <Picto> private*
[21:55] <Penguincsc> cccangel: go to the Cog and click on the Printers
[21:56] <tetris4> Jordan_U: thnx mate
[21:56] <Jordan_U> tetris4: You're welcome.
[21:56] <cccangel> Penguincsc, where is the Cog your refering to?
[21:56] <Penguincsc> cccangel: choose Server --> Settings in the menu
[21:56] <dr3mro> hello .. i installed 3.4 kernel to percise from kernel.ubuntu.com ... and i used to run zram modules but since update i have failed to make it work with 3.4 any help ?
[21:56] <cccangel> Penguincsc, go on
[21:57] <cccangel> Penguincsc, i have publish shared printers and save debugging checked... everything else i left as default
[21:57] <Penguincsc> cccangel: now choose Settings under Server in the menu (top left
[21:57] <venta7> trying to get ubuntu 12.04 and windows 7 dual boot on the same hard drive, ubuntu already installed and the hard drive is partitioned as: /boot, /root, /home, swap and ntfs partition for windows
[21:57] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes im in server settings
[21:58] <Jordan_U> vlt: So to clarify if it's not clear, libav is a fork of the ffmpeg project. Their fork has depricated the utility named "ffmpeg" in favor of their utility named "avconv". Ubuntu uses the libav fork, and thus you get this message when trying to run the "ffmpeg" utility.
[21:58] <donvito2> hello, i want to ask does unity 2d is installed on 12.04 by himself?
[21:58] <venta7> when I've tried to install win7, get an error: System was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition.
[21:58] <schultza> czz: i dont know much about vnc, you may want to look for one that features compression as it's across the Internet
[21:58] <Okeanos> I have age of Mythology but don't have a graphics card, so i tried to bypass this, by using 3d analyzer, this seemed to have worked, however, after the loading screen, the screen just went black showing the cursor, and still had sound. I hoped someone could help me with this?
[21:58] <Penguincsc> cccangel: check all except Remote Administration
[21:58] <venta7> how to go around this error and dual boot 12.04 and win7
[21:59] <cccangel> Penguincsc, okay hold on
[21:59] <xangua> Okeanos: did you check the wine databese¿
[21:59] <dr3mro> any help to enable zram modules?
[21:59] <Jordan_U> venta7: That sounds like a Windows problem. Try asking in ##windows.
[21:59] <cccangel> Penguincsc, including printing from the internet?
[21:59] <donvito2> ok how to install unity2d on ubuntu 12.04
[21:59] <Okeanos> xangua: how would i check the wine database?
[21:59] <xangua> dr3mro: i suggest you to stick with the packages provided by the official ubuntu repositories
[21:59] <zykotick9> xangua: +1
[21:59] <venta7> thanks jordan_U
[22:00] <morten77> venta7: do you have any primary partitions on that harddisk, or only extended/logical ones?
[22:00] <xangua> !appdb | Okeanos: like you were told, that's a windows game isn't it¿
[22:00] <Jordan_U> venta7: You're welcome.
[22:01] <cccangel> Penguincsc, im still stuck
[22:01] <venta7> jordan_U: is it possible the problem to exist because I've created a separate partition for the boot
[22:01] <Penguincsc> cccangel: no
[22:01] <cccangel> oh ok
[22:01] <MonkeyDust> venta7  did you use wubi?
[22:01] <cccangel> Penguincsc, okay i have all of that setup
[22:01] <venta7> morten77: I have primary partitions
[22:02] <Penguincsc> cccangel:  restart the CUPS on the host machine
[22:02] <cccangel> how do i do that?
[22:02] <Penguincsc> cccangel:  did you check this on the host machine?
[22:02] <venta7> only /home is logical
[22:02] <dr3mro> xangua, i need to use 3.4 as it fixes cpu overheat
[22:02] <cccangel> Penguincsc, i got both the host and guest laptops sitting next to eachotyher'
[22:03] <cccangel> but how do i reset cups?  I couldnt figure that out earlier...
[22:03] <comptekki> hi - I tried to change the resolution of ubuntu in vmware exsi and now it is out of range or something and I get no gui.
[22:03] <vlt> Jordan_U: I begin to understand: When I install ffmpeg on Ubuntu I get libav (which is an ffmpeg fork). They developed their own frontend tool avconv and dropped the ffmpeg tool. That would explain why I get some errors and lack of functionality in the ubuntu version compared to the one I get from ffmpeg.org.
[22:03] <Penguincsc> cccangel:  I mean - did you checked the settings on the computer the printer is connected to?
[22:03] <comptekki> I can log in with ssh.  Where can I change the resolution back to 800x600.
[22:03] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes i did
[22:04] <Penguincsc> cccangel: cool. now restart cups
[22:04] <cccangel> Penguincsc, whats the command for that?
[22:04] <venta7> MonkeyDust, no wubi - I have Ubuntu already installed, and now I'm trying to install win7
[22:04] <schultza> I have had issues with ipp, for me it worked when i went ldp directly to printers... does this matter? what is the difference between ipp and ldp?
[22:04] <venta7> only for the photoshop
[22:04] <UBuxuBU> ubuntu is urging me to upgrage to 12.04
[22:04] <Penguincsc> in the console run sudo service cups restart
[22:05] <cccangel> Penguincsc, okay...
[22:05] <UBuxuBU> but 11.10 seems fine
[22:05] <Jordan_U> venta7: If you've used all primary partition slots then that would be a problem as Windows requires at least one primary partition (All of Ubuntu's partitions can be either primary or logical).
[22:05] <schultza> UBuxuBU: Eventually, 11.10 will run out of support time.
[22:06] <UBuxuBU> hmmm, when
[22:06] <MonkeyDust> venta7  windows ruins grub, better install windows first and then ubuntu
[22:06] <cccangel> Penguincsc, okay done that.. now how do a connect a guest computer to the host?
[22:06] <UBuxuBU> seems to work very well
[22:06] <cccangel> Penguincsc, i keep doing the auto detect one and it keeps failing.
[22:06] <Redbad72> Vim installed and configured, deadmau5 is pumping beats through Rhytmbox, keyboard ready, let's check out this 12.04. Looking forward to it.
[22:06] <Penguincsc> cccangel: for printing?
[22:06] <skd5aner> Hello, I've got a serious issue... I was in the middle of doing an upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04, using do-release-upgrade... and my power went out :(  I can ssh back into the box, and it says that I'm running 12.04 when I log in, but I know for a fact it didn't get through the complete upgrade process - in fact, it was only a few minutes in :(
[22:06] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes.
[22:06] <mash__> hi <3
[22:06] <skd5aner> how can I make sure the upgrade is completed successfully?
[22:07] <schultza> UBuxuBU: 11.10 support will end 2013-04.
[22:07] <Jordan_U> skd5aner: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:07] <prophit> augustl: wget and curl work for grabbing www.google.com, yet ping is getting 100% packet loss.. Apparently my network has determined that it is wise to block all ping traffic
[22:07] <Penguincsc> cccangel: both run ubuntu?
[22:07] <cccangel> Penguincsc, the printer shows up on the network just fine and i get the drivers easily but the thing ends up not working
[22:07] <skd5aner> Jordan_U: thanks, I was wondering if that'd do it
[22:07] <prophit> augustl: I just tried pinging various addresses from my host machine. I get the same behavior - all requests are timing out
[22:07] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes they both run ubuntu 12.04 lts (first time i am doing this since i left windows lol)
[22:07] <UBuxuBU> sheez thats sooon
[22:08] <Jordan_U> skd5aner: You're welcome. That might miss some of the cleaning up of unneeded packages normally done, but otherwise should get you the same result. Not that I would recommend cutting power in the middle of an upgrade in the future :)
[22:08] <Penguincsc> cccangel: right click the printer on the host machine - is it shared?
[22:08] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes.
[22:08] <UBuxuBU> i have 1204 on 2 other computers but this one seems to like 1110
[22:09] <skd5aner> Jordan_U: after running the apt-get update, it's asking me to run a dpkg --configure -a, so I am
[22:09] <Penguincsc> cccangel: wait
[22:09] <Sidewinder> !distupgrade | skd5aner
[22:10] <gnufun> Can anyone help me troubleshoot Flash? I feel like I tried everything: purging  and reinstalling the restricted extras package and flash plugin installer, using the ff flash extention that is supposed to detect the latest version and fix your flash problems.  I get: Missing Plugins where all flash content is supposed to be.
[22:10] <skd5aner> Jordan_U: yea, needless to say, my power company has been on a role lately of losing power for 2 seconds anytime the littlest bit of water falls from the sky and this particular box isn't on a UPS :/
[22:10] <cccangel> Penguincsc, i tried to the ipp address for the hosts lan ip address and it doesn't work
[22:10] <Penguincsc> cccangel: what printer? USB?
[22:11] <cccangel> Penguincsc, its a USB Canon Pixma MP 280
[22:11] <skd5aner> now it wants me to do an apt-get -f install :/
[22:11] <schultza> cccangel: is the printer a network printer?
[22:11] <Penguincsc> cccangel: try finding it by choosing Network Printer
[22:11] <Jordan_U> skd5aner: I can't wait until btrfs is standard and we can just say "Meh, just rollback to before the upgrade and try again" :)
[22:11] <skd5aner> sheesh, stupid power company
[22:11] <cccangel> Penguincsc, on the host or guest?
[22:11] <djskidd> Hello, I need to install Ubuntu to a USB Flash Drive.
[22:12] <skd5aner> Jordan_U: yea, that'll be great
[22:12] <venta7> Jordan_U, can I change the partition to logical now, without reinstalling Ubuntu?
[22:12] <djskidd> How do I do this in Wubi?
[22:12] <Penguincsc> cccangel: on the guest
[22:12] <cccangel> Penguincsc, ya it shows up under network printers even
[22:12] <skd5aner> Jordan_U: finally, can do a dist-upgrade now... thank you so much - I can't imagine what would happen if that happened in the middle of a windows upgrade :-o
[22:12] <stueng> djskidd: what do you mean by install on the USB drive. you want an actual install installed as if the USB drive was a HDD or you want a live CD on the USB key ?
[22:13] <Penguincsc> cccangel: install it from there, not IPP
[22:13] <Jordan_U> venta7: Yes, but you'll need to be careful and you'll need to re-run grub-install afterward. I would highly recommend backing up any important data first (but you already do that regularly, right? :)
[22:13] <Penguincsc> cccangel: see if that works
[22:13] <Jordan_U> skd5aner: You're welcome.
[22:13] <djskidd> I want as if the USB was an HDD
[22:13] <xangua> !usb | djskidd
[22:13] <stueng> djskidd: what OS are you on atm ?
[22:13] <Jordan_U> djskidd: Just do a normal installation as you would to an internal drive.
[22:13] <cccangel> Penguincsc, i did that and i realize it shows up as Local Raw Printer.  is it supposed to do that?
[22:13] <djskidd> Windows 7 Starter
[22:14] <stueng> Jordan_U: you can get it to install to USB as if it was HDD but it requires some hacking
[22:14] <Penguincsc> cccangel: no. wait
[22:14] <Jordan_U> djskidd: Do not use Wubi.
[22:14] <venta7> Jordan_U: yes I have backup
[22:14] <cccangel> Penguincsc, and the printer state is "Idle - The printer is not responding."
[22:14] <djskidd> So I need to get an ISO?
[22:14] <Jordan_U> stueng: I'm not aware of any hacking required, I've done this many times and looked into some of the code in Ubiquity.
[22:15] <mcphail> djskidd: that is the easiest way, yes
[22:15] <djskidd> Okay. I downloaded an ISO through BittTorrent yesterday anyway
[22:15] <stueng> Jordan_U: sorry misread you to say "you would require an internal drive" sorry lol
[22:15] <Jordan_U> djskidd: Do you have a CD you can burn and boot from, or another USB drive that you can put Ubuntu's installer on then boot from?
[22:15] <cccangel> Penguincsc, okay waiting...
[22:15] <djskidd> Yeah, I have another USB at my disposal
[22:16] <stueng> Jordan_U: djskidd from within windows you cannot treat the USB drive as if it was a HDD (i..e create partitions) unless you do some hacking
[22:17] <stueng> Jordan_U: djskidd but you can turn one USB key into a "live CD" and use that to boot into Ubuntu and install onto the second USB key.. which is what I guess you are about to explain ?
[22:17] <Penguincsc> cccangel: does it show correctly on the host?
[22:17] <cccangel> Penguincsc, yes it setup it up automatically drivers and all on the host
[22:18] <cccangel> Penguincsc, but the remote auto says those things above
[22:18] <cccangel> Penguincsc, i can print fine on the host, already checked
[22:18] <Penguincsc> cccangel: when installing on the guest, did it ask for a driver?
[22:19] <cccangel> Penguincsc, it says "remote cups printer via DNS-SD" and i click that
[22:19] <cccangel> Penguincsc, no prompt for driver
[22:19] <cccangel> Penguincsc, just asks if i can print test page
[22:19] <Penguincsc> cccangel: any other printers on the gues?
[22:19] <stueng> ccb056: the return button on your keyboard is not a puctuation mark
[22:20] <stueng> oops cccangel * lol
[22:20] <comptekki> i'm in 11.10, but I don't see an xorg.conf file in /etc/X
[22:20] <cccangel> Penguincsc, no
[22:20] <zykotick9> comptekki: xorg.conf doesn't exist by default, you'd need to create one
[22:20] <Penguincsc> cccangel: OK, delete all printers in the guest
[22:20] <cccangel> stueng, ah man.  i love doing that hehe
[22:20] <cccangel> Penguincsc, done.
[22:20] <comptekki> ok
[22:21] <Penguincsc> I don't have another computer here to test it myself
[22:22] <cccangel> Penguincsc, wait i am doing something a tad differently now
[22:22] <Penguincsc> cccangel: on the guest, in the printers window, choose to add a printer and click on the Nework Printer and let it find it
[22:23] <cccangel> Penguincsc, fixed it
[22:23] <stueng> when they call this the official suport channel.. does that mean people employed by canonical are here? and help?
[22:23] <Penguincsc> cccangel: cool - what did you do?
[22:23] <cccangel> Penguincsc, they need to say that instead of selecting your printer, type in your host ip address
[22:23] <cccangel> into the other option
[22:23] <Penguincsc> cccangel: great
[22:24] <cccangel> Penguincsc, sweet now im going to duplicate this
[22:24]  * TimRiker ughs at upstart... sure, it's more feature rich, but it's a pain to debug.
[22:24] <comptekki> zykotick9:  where does ubuntu keep it resolutions if  they are changed when xorg.conf doesn't exists?
[22:24] <OerHeks> stueng, no, we are all volunteers.
[22:24] <zykotick9> comptekki: it's automajic - sorry i don't know if it's stored anywhere
[22:24] <djskidd> Is it normal if avast! keeps telling you it found an infection in the same file every minute?
[22:24] <Penguincsc> cccangel: try this to use the scanner:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1582497&page=6
[22:24] <comptekki> zykotick9: ok
[22:24] <TimRiker> after an upgrade to precise, mysqld fails to start. start: Job failed to start   how do I debug that?
[22:25] <zykotick9> comptekki: if you create an xorg.conf it will be used
[22:25] <Penguincsc> Tiktalik: check dmesg
[22:25] <comptekki> zykotick9:  ok - i'm looking for a standard 800x600 one...
[22:25] <djskidd> AHHH OH NO
[22:25] <djskidd> Another disc goes to waste as another burn fails
[22:25] <CokeAddict> !java

[22:26] <cccangel> Penguincsc is the man!
[22:26] <Penguincsc> djskidd: what are you trying to do?
[22:26] <djskidd> Burn the ISO to disc
[22:26] <djskidd> an actual CD
[22:27] <mbucko> which script should i use for adding a user programs to run on startup?
[22:27] <djskidd> It says "Could not perform EndTrack"
[22:27] <Penguincsc> djskidd: do you need a bootable cd to install Ubuntu or a Live USB to play around with?
[22:27] <mcphail> mbucko: i usually add to cron. There are many other ways
[22:28] <Penguincsc> djskidd: do you need a bootable cd to install Ubuntu or a Live USB to play around with?
[22:28] <djskidd> I need a bootable CD so I can install it to a USB stick to use at school
[22:28] <mbucko> mcphail, whats cron?
[22:28] <Penguincsc> djskidd: do you have a USB drive?
[22:28] <djskidd> Yes, 4GB, my destination install
[22:29] <Penguincsc> djskidd: using Windows 7?
[22:29] <djskidd> Using Windows 7 Starter
[22:30] <Jordan_U> djskidd: Try following the instructions here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/burn-a-cd-on-windows
[22:30] <Guest10651> Hi, I'm trying to cerate a composite photo of stars sweepong accross the sky. I'm currently in the process of taking lots of long exposure photos on a timer; once I've got them all is there a way to script the combining of all the images? I don't want to have to spend hours slecting the layer mode individually in gimp
[22:30] <mcphail> mbucko: cron is a built-in program which you can configure to run other programs at certain times
[22:30] <Penguincsc> djskidd: try this: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[22:31] <mbucko> mcphail, oh but id like to do it manually.. is there any script in ~ directory?
[22:31] <mcphail> mbucko: i'm not quite sure what you mean by that
[22:32] <Penguincsc> djskidd: this will give you a live USB you can use or install from
[22:33] <mbucko> mcphail, for example the system startup script is inittab or rc-something on ubuntu.. is there a script that gets called after a user logs in?
[22:34] <djskidd> Can KUbuntu run .deb packages?
[22:34] <djskidd> Oh well, Ubuntu it is.
[22:34] <Jordan_U> Guest10651: imagemagic would probably be the thing to look into.
[22:34] <mcphail> mbucko: there is no "univeral" way to launch things at login. Every dektop does it differently. For example, in unity you click th cogwheel in the top right corner and select startup applications
[22:35] <Jordan_U> djskidd: Yes, all of the flavors of Ubuntu use the same core, and thus handle packages the same way.
[22:35] <mcphail> mbucko: to be clear, do you mean startup as in when the system boots or startup as in when you log in to the gui?
[22:36] <Jordan_U> djskidd: The only difference between Ubuntu and Kubuntu is the default packages which come installed.
[22:36] <Penguincsc> mbucko: what are you trying to do?
[22:36] <mbucko> mcphail, when i log in to the gui
[22:37] <Penguincsc> djskidd: did you get the link?
[22:37] <djskidd> yeah\
[22:37] <Penguincsc> djskidd: cool
[22:37] <mbucko> Penguincsc, im trying to manually set some of my applications to start
[22:37] <mbucko> Penguincsc, at the login time
[22:38] <Guest10651> Jordan_U: I had a bit of a look at imagemagik and while there is a merge function, it just averages the 2 pictures. I suspect I will need a more complicated algorithm to get star trails
[22:38] <Penguincsc> mbucko: the best way is to add it to the Startup Programs
[22:38] <Penguincsc> mbucko: those are run every time you login
[22:39] <RAMM> hello guys,  im trying to find out what kind of RAM the desktop pc im using has. i booted from a live cd bceasue it doesnt have an hd
[22:39] <TimRiker> ok, debugged. for some reason /etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.mysqld did not exist. I don't know what creates that, but it's not owned by any package and there's no useful error message anywhere if it does not exist.
[22:39] <Penguincsc> mbucko: you can add your own - not only the system defaults
[22:39] <dem0n> hey does anyone here by any chance have any idea on how to enlarge the image file (ubuntu.img) for ubuntu ARM distro (for android phones) so you can install more apps...my ubuntu arm image is 2gigs and i would like to increase it to 3gigs so that i can install more apps?
[22:40] <fmarier> i've just found a really strange bug and i'm having a hard time figuring out what package I should file it under: pressing the mute button on my usb headset steals the mouse focus.  any ideas?
[22:40] <Penguincsc> RAMM: do you mean - how much or what't the make and model of the chip?
[22:40] <TimRiker> dem0n, got another linux box? if so, create a new file of the right size, loop mount the old image, format the new image with the same filesystem, loop mount it, then copy all the data over.
[22:41] <TimRiker> dem0n, if it's ext3+ you may be able to resize it by appending to the image, then running resize2fs on it. I'd make a backup before trying any of this. :)
[22:41] <RAMM> penguincsc, it shows the amount in system monitor, though i want to know whether this is ddr-ram or sd-ram
[22:42] <vexaxv> does anyone use hulu desktop??
[22:42] <dem0n> there has to be a way to do it with the android os, and with the terminal emulator app...
[22:42] <TimRiker> vexaxv, I would assume that at least someone does. you might get more useful replies with a more detailed question.
[22:43] <vexaxv> TimRiker, yeah sorry long day so far
[22:43] <TimRiker> dem0n, hmm. got busybox installed on your android os? it should be able to do all that.
[22:43] <vexaxv> im using ubuntu 12.04 and i downloaded and installed hulu desktop and it worked for a while until i clicked the maximize button now everytime i start it up i get a big white screen across my whole screen then it shuts off
[22:44] <vexaxv> i have a hp pavilion dv7 3173 nr
[22:44] <mbucko> Penguincsc, i guess i could add a script to it and then from the script have more freedom ..?
[22:44] <TimRiker> vexaxv, I'd look for cached settings in a $HOME/.{something} file or directory. move that someplace else and see if it starts up again.
[22:44] <dem0n> TimRiker: i do have busybox installed..how would i do it with that?
[22:44] <Penguincsc> RAMM: sudo lshw -c memory
[22:45] <TimRiker> dem0n, got enough storage to handle both filesystem images?
[22:45] <Penguincsc> mbucko: you could - but it seems complicated
[22:45] <TimRiker> ie: is there 3g+ free on the native filesystem?
[22:45] <Penguincsc> mbucko: is this a one time add - or a daily task?
[22:46] <dem0n> TimIker: yes i just want to increase it like 500MB's... i have ubuntu on my harddrive for my phone (hd= 8gigs) and i have another linux distro on my sd card (sdcard=16gigs)
[22:46] <mbucko> Penguincsc, well one time.. more or less.. but it seems easier more portable..
[22:47] <dem0n> TimRiker: i actually have busybox pro (paid version) installed on my phone
[22:47] <Penguincsc> mbucko: whatever is convinient to you
[22:48] <nwilson5> imbezol, do you know if memtest can fail on one system and pass on another depending on the bios settings. i'm thoroughly confused with what's going on with this ram atm.
[22:48] <Penguincsc> mbucko: I'd just add the app to the Startup Programs - it's super easy
[22:48] <TimRiker> dem0n, cracks me up to see paid versions of open source apps. the "pro" version is broken in different ways, including not supporting dns in wget which annoys me.
[22:48] <nwilson5> i had 6 sticks memtest on my system, one of them failed didn't know which but had a guess. took it out/replaced it and memtest worked fine. The one I took out I tested on another system, and it passed
[22:49] <dem0n> TimRiker: good point =-P
[22:49] <dem0n> TimRiker: someone told me this might help: mknod /dev/zero c 1 5
[22:50] <dem0n> if my busybox has mknod..
[22:50] <dem0n> but i am not sure what that does
[22:50] <mbucko> Progster, what about apps that youd only want to run at certain run levels?
[22:50] <TimRiker> dem0n, ok,  busybox should have dd build in. with dd, you can create a new filesystem image. something like: ...
[22:50] <TimRiker> you should have a /dev/zero already. try ls -l /dev/zero and see what it says
[22:50] <dem0n> k
[22:51] <Penguincsc> dem0n: you should use a script from the CMW recovery
[22:51] <TimRiker> do you have the arm image mounted? if so, show me the line for it from "busybox mount".. I'm looking for the filesystem type. ext2, ext3 or ext4 most likely.
[22:51]  * Penguincsc is away
[22:52] <dem0n> ls -l /dev/zero
[22:52] <TimRiker> Penguincsc, is there one that resizes and existing image? that would be much easier than my having to explain the steps.... :)
[22:52] <mbucko> Progster, sorry wrong person
[22:52] <mbucko> Penguincsc,  what about apps that youd only want to run at certain run levels?
[22:52] <dem0n> crw-rw-rw root__ root 1, 5 2012,05,27 23:23 ZERO
[22:53] <TimRiker> dem0n, ZERO? not zero?
[22:53] <pooltable> hi help when i am on you tube i have a auto d not play extension installed but it still play when i do not push play how to fix
[22:53] <dem0n> no its zero
[22:53] <dem0n> i accidentally hit the caps button
[22:53] <pooltable> on firefox
[22:53] <mcphail> mbucko: Ubuntu doesn't bother much with runlevels. It isn't like redhat
[22:53] <TimRiker> ok. is your image mounted? find it in the output of "busybox mount" ?
[22:53] <dem0n> also when i did "which dd" on my android phone it says.. /system/bin/dd
[22:55] <dem0n> TimRiker: for busybox its just an installer and asks where to install the busybox /system/bin or /system/xbin
[22:55] <TimRiker> dem0n, not sure if the system dd does what we need. it probably does, but we need other tools from busybox like mkfs.ext2 that's not likely to be included in your base image.
[22:55] <TimRiker> dem0n, yes, but the "pro" version in the market installs and old somewhat poorly configured busybox.
[22:56] <TimRiker> s/and/an/
[22:56] <Jordan_U> dem0n: Where did you get this image file and why do you think you need to modify it from the phone itself rather than using a full Desktop install of Ubuntu to do the modification then copying the image over?
[22:56] <dem0n> i got the image file from one of the linux apps from the android market, i downloaded it and installed it
[22:57] <dem0n> TimRIker: i see i downloaded and instaled "busybox installer" but you are saying i
[22:57] <dem0n> i need actually busybox
[22:57] <pooltable> how to pause a pod cast on opera??
[22:57] <RAMM> penguincsc, thx. sudo dmidecode --type 17 also helped to show ram...
[22:57] <TimRiker> dem0n, don't work about it... if you have one someplace it's probably fine for what you want to do.
[22:57] <CokeAddict> wish there is a native linux netbeans version
[22:58] <CokeAddict> :(
[22:58] <muelli> pooltable: alt+f2, then "pkill -STOP opera"
[23:00] <pooltable> mueiil how to re start ?
[23:00] <muelli> pooltable: pkill -CONT opera
[23:00] <dem0n> ya i just want to be able to install more apps...and i am running out of space for ubuntu ARM, i am down to like 160MB's
[23:01] <dem0n> TimRiker: i really appreciate the assistance
[23:01] <TimRiker> dem0n, is your image mounted? what filesystem type is it?
[23:01] <pooltable> thanks is there a easy way ??
[23:01] <d-1337> how do I add something to the quicklinks in unity on 12.04?  I've tried the ule but it never sticks.  Isn't there just a config file somewhere I can edit in gedit or something?
[23:03] <muelli> d-1337: no idea. But I presume right click does some magic..? At least it doesn in GNOME Shell
[23:03] <curiousx> d-1337: drag and drop
[23:03] <curiousx> an icon
[23:04] <dem0n> TimRiker: i am not sure what kind of filesystem it is...i don't believe its mounted, i never had to
[23:04] <d-1337> neither of those did a thing
[23:04] <astropirate> I am trying to set up a Ubuntu web server. What is the best practice,  should I setup a different user for every server component (MongoDB, Node.js, Nginx etc)?
[23:04] <curiousx> or drag and drop an icon from /usr/share/applications/ to the unity bar
[23:04] <dem0n> TimRiker: i just run the shell script from the android terminal (sh ubuntu.sh) and it starts linux
[23:04] <d-1337> I drag.. drop.. and nothing happens
[23:05] <dem0n> TimRiker: then i load the vncserver (vncserver port 5091) and then i use androidvnc to connect to it and i have the lxde gui
[23:05] <curiousx> d-1337: Unity 3D?
[23:05] <d-1337> I suppose.  Its all default
[23:05] <Jordan_U> dem0n: Can you connect your phone to your computer and copy the image over to a Desktop machine? That will make things a lot easier as all the normal tools will be available.
[23:05] <d-1337> fresh install.  I haven't changed a thing
[23:06] <dem0n> Jordan_U: that may be a possibility
[23:06] <curiousx> d-1337: any windows error?
[23:06] <d-1337> nope
[23:07] <d-1337> just looks like a failure of programming to me...  although one would have assumed such a feature would have been programmed in there a long time ago
[23:07] <TimRiker> dem0n, when you run the shell script, it should mount the filesystem. while it's mounted (ie: running) then do a "busybox mount" and look for the image name.
[23:08] <nulldev> boo
[23:08] <TimRiker> dem0n, I've gotta take off so I'm not going to have time to finish this. in short: use dd to create a new image size, use mkfs.ext2 to format that image. loop mount the new image, use cp -a to copy all the old data into the new image. unmount both images, swap them, try your startup script again.
[23:09] <d-1337> isn't there a text/config file I can just edit without having to try and out think someone's failed effort at simplicity?
[23:09] <Jordan_U> dem0n: TimRiker: I would simply copy the image (so you have a backup), append zeroes to the end of it with dd, then use resize2fs to resize the filesytem for the new size.
[23:09]  * TimRiker hates unity
[23:10] <wo0f> TimRiker, what dont you like about it?
[23:10] <Jordan_U> dem0n: TimRiker: Though that assumes that it's just an extN fileystem image.
[23:10]  * curiousx love the video lens -.-
[23:10] <TimRiker> Jordan_U, you presume running on a desktop instead of on the phone itself. normally there is no resize2fs on the phone. hence the extra steps.
[23:10] <d-1337> agreed.   I'd never use it myself.  just cause I hate the idea of wasted screen space and only being able to see one program's menu bar at a time
[23:10] <Jordan_U> TimRiker: I asked earlier if copying the image to the Desktop was an option :)
[23:11] <nulldev> its not just unity most desktops are going poor
[23:11] <d-1337> but this is for a client...  setting up an old laptop of his to be nothing more than a computer to work on a project with.
[23:11] <TimRiker> wo0f, I like having one panel on the top of my screen and nothing else. I like being able to put what icons I like there. I like wobbly windows and 3d desktop. etc.
[23:11] <TimRiker> Jordan_U, :) so did I, but dem0n didn't reply to that. :)
[23:12] <d-1337> best to keep it simple as possible.
[23:12] <nulldev> simple is boring keep it eficient but exciting
[23:12] <wo0f> TimRiker, i feel the same, what do you use now?
[23:12] <wo0f> im using xfce
[23:13] <TimRiker> wo0f, unity just isn't customizable enough. I can't figure out how to get rid of the icons on the left. I want that real estate for my apps, not for a bar.
[23:13] <pooltable> XFCE here
[23:13] <wo0f> whats the best install
[23:13] <Chuck_Norris> d-1337: your issue is only yours, noone have the same issue that you have, all we just drag and drop icons into the bar
[23:13] <d-1337> I'm in love with how I set gnome 2 up 3 years ago...   but thinking of going to xfce for myself
[23:13] <wo0f> ubuntu and add xubuntu rependancies or install from xubuntu?
[23:14] <TimRiker> wo0f, I'm running gnome-classic with compiz and missing the clearlooks theme. radiance is lame. I hate brown. give me a readable blue theme please.
[23:14] <d-1337> chuck:  thanks..  that at least tells me something
[23:14] <Chuck_Norris> d-1337: try gnome shell if you want: http://i.imgur.com/LUHZv.jpg
[23:14] <pooltable> i just add it
[23:14] <nulldev> gnome 2,* FTW
[23:15] <wo0f> i happen to like the differnce in color TimRiker, but unity seems like a right stitch up
[23:15] <pooltable> in opera with pod cast how do i know how long it is ?
[23:15] <wo0f> too bulky as you say
[23:15] <nulldev> .
[23:15] <wo0f> the search is p cool tho
[23:16] <nulldev> xfce is a cool window manager
[23:17] <Harris> anybody know a good face reconization way to login to ubuntu 12.04
[23:17] <TimRiker> I may try xfce again. gnome-classic is worse than the old gnome. switching between apps using the taskbar does not always switch. dragging windows to another desktop often does not work, etc. unity is lame, and gnome-classic is broken in many ways. I wonder what debian desktops look like these days.
[23:17] <nulldev> its not a desktop but then again do we need desktop on Linux?
[23:17] <TimRiker> wo0f, I'm not in favor of forcing blue as a color, but currently brown seems to be enforced. that's what I don't like. lack of choice.
[23:18] <Etherael> Just rebooted, there is no longer a windows entry in my startup menu, what gives?
[23:18] <Harris> anybody know a good face reconization way to login to Ubuntu 12.04
[23:18] <TimRiker> I run linux as my primary desktop and have for 10+ years now.
[23:18] <dem0n> TimRiker: okay so you want me to run linux on my phone and then load busybox and see what the file system is?
[23:18] <wo0f> TimRiker, well put
[23:18] <Chuck_Norris> WoOh: ye, and Unity will become more lightweight in 12.10 there will no unity 2D but Unity 3D will work fine in accelerated or not accelerated graphic card
[23:19] <wo0f> TimRiker, i dont understand why theyre rewriting that wheel
[23:19] <ActionParsnip> Chuck_Norris: indeed, it doesn't run bad here
[23:19] <nulldev> ethareal bill gates puts it in the windows boot loader so that evryone whoe tries linux hates it ( thats thee kernel contributions lol)
[23:19] <TimRiker> Chuck_Norris, will I be able to turn off everything but one panel and customize what's on that panel? (oh, and wobbly windows?)
[23:19] <Chuck_Norris> ActionParsnip: me neither, (intel 128) dual core 2.0 Ghz :D
[23:19] <Harris> anybody know a good face reconization way to login to Ubuntu 12.04
[23:20] <pooltable> on upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 I know 12.04 Is LTS so is it wise to go to 12.10 ?
[23:20] <ActionParsnip> Chuck_Norris: 3Gb RAM, dual core 1.2Ghz 32bit, Intel junk GPU
[23:20] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: its not even Alpha1 yet, so unless you are good at fixing your own system I wouldn't bother
[23:20] <TimRiker> pooltable, depends what you want to do. production server? no. testing desktop? perhaps.
[23:20] <Harris> anybody know a good face reconization way to login to Ubuntu 12.04
[23:20] <dem0n> TimRiker: how do i find the filesystem with busybox?
[23:20] <d-1337> It is wise to wait a month or two before upgrading to the next version.. regardless
[23:20] <Chuck_Norris> TimRiker: really idk but i just read that news weeks ago =P
[23:21] <TimRiker> dem0n, "busybox mount"
[23:21] <Etherael> 12.04, just rebooted the computer, grub no longer includes my windows partition, how do I get it to rebuild the grub conf from the ground up and fix this?
[23:21] <TimRiker> or "cat /proc/mounts" :)
[23:21] <Etherael> Nothing changed.
[23:21] <ActionParsnip> Etherael: sudo update-grub
[23:21] <pooltable> actionparsnip i know just a basic question
[23:21] <wo0f> TimRiker, what do you do for games?
[23:21] <dem0n> TimRiker: Mount System R/W or Mount Sytem Read-Only
[23:22] <TimRiker> wo0f, trick question? (/me is the maintainer of BZFlag)
[23:22] <Etherael> ActionParsnip, It's just hanging on the commandline after entering password.
[23:22] <nulldev> actionparsnip thats a super computer to what Linux can run on
[23:22] <wo0f> TimRiker, in which case i salut you sir
[23:23] <wo0f> TimRiker, why have so many games been written with directX :'(
[23:23] <ActionParsnip> nulldev: its struggles with most flash stuff and gets hot
[23:23] <dem0n> TimRiker: and then when i click on the "Mount System R/W" it gives a bunch of options -> 1. Mount System R/W  2. Run Script,  3. Edit Script,  4. Delete Script,  5 Set at boot
[23:23] <nulldev> because windows own the market
[23:23] <ActionParsnip> Etherael: let it run :)
[23:23] <ActionParsnip> nulldev: Its a dell D420
[23:23] <Etherael> ActionParsnip, How long is it going to take?
[23:24] <ActionParsnip> Etherael: as long as it takes dude, let it play
[23:24] <nulldev> actionparsnip clean your fans :)
[23:24] <Harris> anybody know a  face reconization way to login to Ubuntu 12.04 and how to install/set it up
[23:24] <nwilson5> sorry imbezol , ignore my last statement. i left the test running on another system and it did fail as i expected it to so no ambiguity anymore.
[23:24] <ActionParsnip> nulldev: might do actually, its a POS though. Noy bought a new PC in years and years
[23:25] <daaaan> is there a way to export a variable from a pre-start script into the script stanza
[23:25] <pooltable> harris look here www.ubuntubuzz.com/2011/05/face-authentication-face-recognition.html
[23:25] <Etherael> ActionParsnip, /usr/sbin/grub-probe --target=device / running three times and unkillable.
[23:26] <nulldev> daaaan output > outputfile
[23:26] <daaaan> heh, that's what i was trying to avoid
[23:26] <nulldev> mistyped
[23:27] <Jorsch> hey everyone. having an issue with xrdp. trying to connect from windows, worked fine until I tried to connect from outside my network. now when i try to connect, i just get a black screen and nothing else! reinstalled xrdp, no luck. ubuntu 12.04. any suggestions?
[23:27] <nulldev> no wasnt
[23:27] <OerHeks> pooltable, that ppa is out of date, not for 12.04 precise  ( i was checking http://askubuntu.com/questions/83426/login-via-face-detection )
[23:27] <ActionParsnip> Etherael: if it doesn't end soon, use  kill -9    to nuke them
[23:28] <Harris> pooltable,  this is the outcomes of the first code http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1013905/
[23:28] <pooltable> oerheks i just goggle it real quick did not read it
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> Jorsch: how fast is your internet upload speed?
[23:28] <nulldev> kill -9 && dd /
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> Jorsch: what are you connecting to the system to achieve?
[23:28] <Jorsch> ActionParsnip: well i am on the same net work now and no luck
[23:28] <Jorsch> but it is 5M up
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> nulldev: what is 'dd /' for?
[23:28] <Cerrdor> anyone have experience setting up Unreal IRCd and Anope?
[23:28] <nulldev> to wipe
[23:28] <Cerrdor> on Buntu
[23:28] <Jorsch> ActionParsnip: general usage; been working for a month but just "stopped"
[23:29] <dem0n> i had no idea that increase the image file size was going to be this difficult
[23:29] <Harris> pooltable, this is the second http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1013907/
[23:29] <Harris> see it doesnt work
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> Jorsch: most apps have web UIs you know, and SSH is great if you just want to update...
[23:29] <Jorsch> ActionParsnip: okay, i want to fix xrdp though!
[23:30] <ActionParsnip> Jorsch: not something I use personally, maybe a router reboot
[23:30] <pooltable> harris sorry i was try to help you
[23:31] <Vooloo> how can I see what applications are sending out data over my eth?
[23:31] <vexaxv> out of curiosity i noticed a long time ago that the new chrome os and android was linux, so why is it companies like netflix who say NO to linux, but yes to other platforms not labeled "linux" but they are linux support em?
[23:32] <harris_> it doesnt work have any other ideas
[23:32] <UBuxuBU> why ask why
[23:32] <ActionParsnip> vexaxv: why not ask them directly.
[23:32] <vexaxv> just curious, it sounds like someone is on the payroll, i cant think of ANY other explanation
[23:32] <nulldev> vexaxv either thee devs are told to or dont even consider Linux the variable that there check runs against returns an error
[23:32] <vexaxv> i planned too i just thought id ask here first lol
[23:33] <vexaxv> i know im asking why are they told no, why are we told no, while they support other linux systems
[23:33] <vexaxv> just not "linux"
[23:34] <KRomo> hi all
[23:34] <harris_> How to Login With Your Face not using pam
[23:34] <mohamez> i saved an .iso file of an original CD whit poweriso, but when i mount it an error occurs tell me to insert the original CD. how can i open the .iso file ?
[23:35] <KRomo> what software can I use to burn AN .ISO TO A FLASH DRIVE?
[23:35] <KRomo> sorry for caps
[23:35] <nulldev> vexaxv basically a if [ $distro == linux ] ; then ; echo "Your system isnt supprted"
[23:35] <zykotick9> KRomo: is it a 12.04 install image?
[23:35] <KRomo> no
[23:36] <KRomo> its A Chromium iso
[23:36] <zykotick9> KRomo: is it an install iso or some sort?
[23:36] <vexaxv> nulldev, so because we have so many distros
[23:36] <harris_> How to Login into ubuntu With Your Face
[23:36] <zykotick9> KRomo: chromium the browser?  needs an iso?
[23:36] <KRomo> chromium os
[23:36] <zykotick9> KRomo: you could try unetbootin perhaps
[23:36] <Chuck_Norris> if [ $distro != linux ] ; then ; echo "Your system isnt supprted" =D
[23:37] <nulldev> vexaxv no because we are free and threatining ms$ who arent
[23:37] <vexaxv> well yeah thats what i was getting at..
[23:37] <vexaxv> its agrivating
[23:37] <ActionParsnip> KRomo: unetbootin
[23:37] <vexaxv> did ms finish buying out skype
[23:38] <nulldev> vexaxv it is but fight against it instead of getting frustrated
[23:38] <KRomo> At the shell, run the following (where sdX is your USB stick and ChromeOS.img is the path to the IMG file you extracted): dd if=ChromeOS.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M
[23:38] <beandog> Chuck_Norris: wouldn't that be the other way around?

[23:38] <Pici> I don't see what this has to do with Ubuntu vexaxv.
[23:39] <nulldev> pici ubuntu is Linux
[23:39] <vexaxv> ubuntu is linux and linux doesent get to use specific softwares that other forms of linux do like android
[23:39] <vexaxv> or chrome os
[23:39] <Pici> vexaxv: this channel is for the support of Ubuntu only, not discussion of linux related things.
[23:39] <OerHeks> harris_, PAM = Pluggable Authentication Modules, so i think no other authentication tru face exists , this google code is buggy too > http://code.google.com/p/pam-face-authentication/
[23:39] <Pici> !offtopic
[23:39] <vexaxv> for example i just saw the netflix deal how they said no to linux
[23:39] <nulldev> and open source support open source and Linux against microsoft!
[23:39] <mintupdan> does ubuntu have a 'notifiy me when you fix the stupid shit' service?
[23:40] <vexaxv> okay..in that case im talking about why ubuntu doesent have support from netflix and other softwares
[23:40] <harris_> OerHeks, when i try to install pam it gets error messages
[23:40] <mintupdan> i like unity but it just dont work folks
[23:40] <vexaxv> BECAUSE OF MS!! or some other stupid payroll crap
[23:40] <vexaxv> even though for the millionth time other forms of linux do
