[00:03] <jux1e> hello
[00:04] <daftykins> jux1e: hello again, do you have a question?
[00:04] <daftykins> !root | jux1e
[00:04] <daftykins> eh, wrong factoid.
[00:04] <daftykins> jux1e: you shouldn't be on IRC as root
[00:10] <craig> hello
[00:10] <Bashing-om> craig: Hi ! support question ?
[00:10] <daftykins> craig: hi
[00:12] <d0lph1n98> ls
[00:13] <nith1210> !ask
[00:15] <d0lph1n98> is ubuntu apt-get download ready-make binary? or they download the source and compile it according to user's system architecture?
[00:16] <daftykins> d0lph1n98: they're binaries
[00:24] <d0lph1n98> so they are installed at the optimum performance of the user's system?
[00:25] <nomic> if you compile on your system, you will end up with identical binaries
[00:25] <daftykins> d0lph1n98: they're compatible, go to gentoo if you want to spend all day compiling for that extra few milliseconds of efficiency :)
[00:39] <d0lph1n98> daftykins: of course they are, im just asking..please don't get too emotional
[00:42] <srdjan_> Hi
[00:42] <srdjan_> Anyone here?
[00:42] <srdjan_> Can anyone help me?
[00:43] <daftykins> d0lph1n98: i think you are reading into my words
[00:43] <srdjan_> Can anyone help me?
[00:43] <daftykins> srdjan_: you have to ask a question first
[00:43] <ClassroomTV> srdjan what is your question?
[00:43] <srdjan_> Oh, sorry, i wann add more diskspace to my ubuntu partiton.  On C is windows.
[00:44] <daftykins> please don't use that language in here, keep it family riendly
[00:45] <daftykins> *friendly too
[00:45] <srdjan_> Im a first time user so please excuse me
[00:45] <srdjan_> Oh sorry will watch my lang.
[00:45] <daftykins> srdjan_: install pastebinit then run "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit"
[00:45] <srdjan_> lemme see
[00:48] <srdjan_> Should i copy it here? or?
[00:48] <daftykins> paste the link that it created, yes
[00:48] <srdjan_> em i see no link just the return from the command
[00:49] <guest-lkajdf_431> ok, so I just acquired a new lappy - an hp pavillion dv6000 from 2007. Nice lappy but the mouse pointer disapears (mouse doesn't work) and the keyboard does not work either. This is happening with "try ubuntu" on ubuntu 14. I already know I want to install ubuntu on it (first thing I do w/ every computer I own) but this worries me.
[00:49] <daftykins> srdjan_: the command was "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit"
[00:49] <srdjan_> yes and i got the result
[00:49] <guest-lkajdf_431> Has anyone heard of other issues as well
[00:49] <guest-lkajdf_431> And what is the soln to the keyboard/mouse issue?
[00:50] <daftykins> srdjan_: which should've been a URL. you probably didn't install pastebinit
[00:50] <daftykins> guest-lkajdf_431: maybe it's broken.
[00:50] <srdjan_> well i did sudo apt get install pastebinit
[00:51] <srdjan_> Ohh sorry
[00:51] <srdjan_> i didint pastebinit..
[00:51] <guest-lkajdf_431> daftykins: the hardware you mean?
[00:51] <daftykins> guest-lkajdf_431: yes.
[00:51] <srdjan_> em im terribly sorry but i dont know how to put  the  |  on my keyboard
[00:52] <guest-lkajdf_431> It has win xp media center (2007) on it and everything works fine under that os
[00:52] <daftykins> paste it
[00:52] <srdjan_> ah yes
[00:52] <srdjan_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482628/
[00:52] <daftykins> guest-lkajdf_431: install it alongside then perhaps
[00:53] <guest-lkajdf_431> daftykins: not gonna happen - I'll throw a computer in the trash can before I allow winblows on it
[00:53] <daftykins> srdjan_: can you also do "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[00:53] <guest-lkajdf_431> there is a soln and I need to find it
[00:53] <daftykins> guest-lkajdf_431: right, so have you installed it yet? are you dealing with a native install of 14.04?
[00:53] <daftykins> because that's what i was getting at.
[00:54] <srdjan_> yes i can do
[00:54] <srdjan_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482630/
[00:54] <guest-lkajdf_431> daftykins: have not installed yet bc I wanted to test for just this sort of thing as I did
[00:54] <c0sm0s_> hi all
[00:54] <guest-lkajdf_431> I'd prefer to find at least some kind of soln before going for the gusto
[00:55] <daftykins> guest-lkajdf_431: but you don't care for Windows on there, so...
[00:55] <guest-lkajdf_431> well
[00:55] <daftykins> srdjan_: i don't see any unallocated space
[00:55] <guest-lkajdf_431> its just my way I guess
[00:56] <daftykins> guest-lkajdf_431: i think full ubuntu would be a mistake on such a machine anyway
[00:56] <srdjan_> well i allocate any yet. when i allocate it and try to enter the command to merge it with ext4 linux i cant do it
[00:56] <srdjan_> should i first do the resize of new volume D and then try to merge it with ext4?
[00:57] <daftykins> srdjan_: ok so there isn't free space, you're wanting to shrink Windows first
[00:57] <daftykins> yeah no, that's not going to end up very well
[00:57] <srdjan_> So what should I do? How will i add more space?
[00:58] <srdjan_> I tried googling but nothing really helps..
[00:58] <daftykins> srdjan_: i'd backup ubuntu, delete and recreate after adjusting windows
[00:58] <srdjan_> so youre saying i should just do it all again?
[00:59] <daftykins> srdjan_: yep
[00:59] <srdjan_> damn
[00:59] <srdjan_> there aint no way?
[00:59] <srdjan_> i mean i have 3.64 gib on here
[00:59] <srdjan_> it should be enuff for documents or streaming a movie..right?
[00:59] <daftykins> srdjan_: also, you may want to read up on partitioning, as you have 3 primary partitions there that are NTFS. that's not how it's done
[00:59] <srdjan_> how do i fix that?
[01:00] <daftykins> starting again
[01:00] <srdjan_> wiping the hard drive?
[01:01] <daftykins> srdjan_: well you don't have to murder the very first one, Windows' C:
[01:02] <srdjan_> Damn mate.  Errors were encountered while processing:  /var/cache/apt/archives/libqtcore4_4%3a4.8.5+git192-g085f851+dfsg-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[01:05] <wizechatmgr> tried installing it manually, am pretty sure I need to clean out the apt archives, but don't have the necessary skillset to remember the "correct" way to do so... any ideas? I know this is a known issue
[01:06] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: sudo apt-get clean
[01:07] <wizechatmgr> yeah, crashes at same spot
[01:07] <daftykins> what crashes doing what?
[01:07] <daftykins> srdjan_: i'd recommend you buy another drive, yep. USB flash drives are not safe
[01:08] <wizechatmgr> when attempting to remove, upgrade, or install the package
[01:08] <wizechatmgr> autoclean doesn't seem to remove the reference to it
[01:08] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: that's not what they're for.
[01:09] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: can you use paste.ubuntu.com to show output of "sudo apt-get -f install" please
[01:09] <wizechatmgr> would be more than happy to :)
[01:10] <srdjan_> Is there any chanche that i leave it like this? I mean this computer will be mostly used for documents,spotify and occasionally a movie.
[01:10] <wizechatmgr> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482700/
[01:11] <daftykins> srdjan_: i don't know what your disk usage is like, it might be fine sure.
[01:11] <srdjan_> i just wish i could expand the linux memory now..
[01:11] <daftykins> memory is not disk space
[01:11] <srdjan_> sorry. disk space.
[01:12] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: do you have any PPAs added that you've used to install other software?
[01:12] <wizechatmgr> hate to sound like an idiot... but what's a PPA?
[01:12] <daftykins> !ppa
[01:12] <wizechatmgr> oh, well, I have joomla on it and TS3
[01:13] <ilyas> hi
[01:14] <srdjan_> So is it hard to remove ubuntu and install it again?
[01:14] <wizechatmgr> the last thing I've done in recent months was attempt to add GUI to it, it got stuck, and I atttempted to back out, but I think it didn't go as well as it could have
[01:14] <daftykins> srdjan_: nope
[01:14] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: you probably aren't meant to do that with a digitalocean droplet
[01:14] <sean_> jurzdevil
[01:15] <wizechatmgr> I've done far worse successfully...
[01:15] <srdjan_> Okey. Theres a big question here?
[01:15] <srdjan_> Can i do this
[01:15] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: try "dpkg -r libqtcore4"
[01:16] <daftykins> srdjan_: do you still have the USB flash drive or DVD you installed ubuntu from?
[01:16] <srdjan_> Can i got into windows and delete the partitons and not remove grub?
[01:16] <srdjan_> Yes of course
[01:16] <srdjan_> go*
[01:16] <wizechatmgr> dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove libqtcore4:amd64, only the config  files of which are on the system; use --purge to remove them too
[01:17] <wizechatmgr> so I'm guessing next command should be a purge "?
[01:17] <daftykins> apt-get purge <package> yip
[01:17] <daftykins> srdjan_: yeah you can do it that way too, then resize your D: as you planned to do
[01:17] <daftykins> srdjan_: just beware that Windows likely won't boot until you reinstall ubuntu beside it
[01:18] <srdjan_> So the plan is. Boot into Windows. Delete the ubuntu partitons. Then put that space again on D. Then restart. Then install ubuntu form boot menu?
[01:18] <daftykins> no resize D: as in shrink it
[01:18] <daftykins> because you wanted to make more space for ubuntu, right?
[01:19] <wizechatmgr> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482750/
[01:19] <wizechatmgr> looking like no dice...
[01:19] <srdjan_> I wann add the unlocated space that will be left after deleting ubuntu to D. And then in the install of ubuntu il add more space memory?
[01:20] <daftykins> srdjan_: no
[01:20] <wizechatmgr> I've done the apt-get -f install a few million times...
[01:20] <srdjan_> So what do i do :(
[01:20] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: nah that's just the result of you previously having tried to install the desktop probably
[01:21] <wizechatmgr> seems like it is half-in, half-out...
[01:21] <daftykins> srdjan_: first off, there is nothing to be gained by resizing D: to use up the entire disk again - because you want to put ubuntu back on, yes?
[01:21] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: yeah so you need to commit to a full removal or something
[01:21] <srdjan_> I want to install ubuntu on D again
[01:22] <daftykins> it can't go *on* D
[01:22] <wizechatmgr> more than willing to do that, any easy command line?
[01:22] <srdjan_> But what will happen with the space that will be left after ubuntu?
[01:22] <daftykins> it'll happily sit there unused
[01:22] <srdjan_> What can i do with it?
[01:22] <daftykins> but you need to *shrink* D: if you want to reinstall ubuntu but make it larger
[01:22] <wizechatmgr> only reason I really care is I want to make sure the bash/etc gets updates
[01:23] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: do you have much installed and configured on this VPS?
[01:23] <wizechatmgr> not enough that I can't roll her back without too much of a headache... you think that's the best way?
[01:23] <srdjan_> So i cant do anything with those 10 Gibs of space?
[01:23] <srdjan_> Which are now used by the ubuntu which im runnin.
[01:24] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: you have a snapshot from before you attempted putting the desktop on?
[01:24] <wizechatmgr> of course :)
[01:24] <wizechatmgr> I'm only half dumb :)
[01:24] <daftykins> heh, yeah i'd just roll back, it looks like you have some kind of xdg software installed that's conflicting
[01:24] <VictorVR> [hellome]: what is the best mirc client for linux?
[01:25] <daftykins> srdjan_: i'm sorry but you're making me go around in circles by not understanding simple concepts, i can't help you anymore.
[01:25] <VictorVR> [hellome]: what is the best mirc client for linux?
[01:25] <VictorVR> ops
[01:25] <VictorVR> helloww, what is the best mirc client for linux?
[01:25] <somsip> VictorVR: stop repeating yourself
[01:25] <daftykins> VictorVR: look into xchat and hexchat
[01:25] <somsip> VictorVR: there is no "best" client for anything. MIRC is a client. There are other IRC clients. Find one that suits your needs
[01:25] <srdjan_> I just dont understand what will happen to the unnlocated memory which will be left by the Ubuntu uinstallation.
[01:26] <VictorVR> someone I know it. you understand my question
[01:26] <wizechatmgr> srdjan it will sit unused
[01:26] <somsip> !best | VictorVR
[01:26] <VictorVR> someone I know it. you understand my question
[01:26] <srdjan_> so thats like wasted 10 gibs of memory which i cant add anywhere?
[01:26] <daftykins> srdjan_: it's not memory.
[01:27] <wizechatmgr> disk space
[01:27] <srdjan_> space..
[01:27] <daftykins> sorry, can't assist you anymore.
[01:27] <VictorVR> somsip What IRC client do you use?
[01:27] <srdjan_> oh well
[01:27] <srdjan_> wish me luck boys
[01:28] <Ro0t> Hello
[01:29] <wizechatmgr> so it appears windows 10 finally brings in a few features ubuntu has had for about 10 years...
[01:29] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: this channel isn't for general chat, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[01:29] <somsip> !ot | wizechatmgr
[01:29] <wizechatmgr> ah, sorrys
[01:29] <daftykins> BenKnisley: got a question?
[01:30] <BenKnisley> Not really just checking out irc, any tips?
[01:31] <daftykins> BenKnisley: yep! tip #1: ubuntu support only in here thanks
[01:35] <Cloudka82> Okay so, I'm now trying to install Open-VPN Server on Ubuntu server 12.04. The issue is, i go to 'source vars' I then run sudo ./clean-all and then it tells me I must source var first
[01:36] <Cloudka82> any ideas? :O
[01:37] <c0sm0s_> ubuntu is awesome, love it!!!
[01:37] <Cloudka82> heh
[01:37] <Cloudka82> i've tried . vars
[01:37] <Cloudka82> i've tried source ./vars
[01:38] <c0sm0s_> had it with windows when they came out with 8
[01:38] <Cloudka82> Still gives me the same error when i run sudo ./clean all
[01:38] <Cloudka82> Still gives me the same error when i run sudo ./clean-all*
[01:40] <somsip> Cloudka82: a possible solution/clarification http://is.gd/L3bb1z
[01:41] <Cloudka82> :O thank you
[01:42] <somsip> Cloudka82: and if you've done . vars it will load the vars to your current environment. When you use sudo, you don't use your current environment (IIRC). So that might also be a failure point
[01:44] <Cloudka82> Nope, still nothing :(
[01:45] <Cloudka82> I guess I'll just go back to Debian Lol
[01:45] <Cloudka82> it plays nicer
[01:45] <somsip> Cloudka82: still nothing when you do what>
[01:45] <Cloudka82> When i attempt to source vars
[01:46] <somsip> Cloudka82: there will be no output
[01:46] <Cloudka82> i ran . /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/vars
[01:46] <Cloudka82> then i ran
[01:46] <Cloudka82> sudo /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/clean-all
[01:46] <somsip> Cloudka82: why are you running clean-all as sudo?
[01:46] <Cloudka82> I then tells me, please source the vars script first (i.e. source ./vars)
[01:46] <Cloudka82> which i've also tried
[01:47] <Cloudka82> and because if I don't i get a shitload of permission denied
[01:47] <somsip> Cloudka82: follow the official guide. It does not mention sudo https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN
[01:47] <somsip> Cloudka82: and keep your language family-friendly please
[01:47] <Cloudka82> apologies
[01:47] <Cloudka82> Just slightly confused O_o I know it's due to the fact that I'm a rookie
[01:47] <Cloudka82> rawr
[01:47] <craigbass1976> anyone else experiencing awful slowness mounting up a remote directory with curlftpfs?
[01:48] <VictorVR> how can I execute a .sh file with double click?
[01:48] <somsip> Cloudka82: then try not to blame ubuntu and find a realiable guide and follow it carefully
[01:48] <Cloudka82> Hmmm, I do appreciate the advice. that's the exact guide I'm following, however Ubuntu is forcing me to run everything as sudo
[01:49] <Cloudka82> There might be a default sudo account I should try accessing
[01:50] <somsip> Cloudka82: In Step 3, there are two commands which should allow any members of the admin group to source vars and run clean-all. Your default user should be in admin. Have you run those 2 commands (sudo chown... and sudo chmod...)
[01:50] <Cloudka82> Interesting, I'll try that.
[01:52] <grindmodeon> Hey all, what sort of skills are needed for server management?
[01:53] <daftykins> that's not what this channel is for, grindmodeon
[01:54] <grindmodeon> daftykins: well I meant for ubuntu specifically
[01:54] <grindmodeon> to manage a ubuntu machine
[01:55] <daftykins> !manual | grindmodeon
[01:55] <Cloudka82> somsip: I ended up running sudo -s within that directory and i guess that fixed it :)
[01:56] <Cloudka82> somsip: thank you for the advice ;)
[01:56] <somsip> Cloudka82: you're now doing everything as the root user. It might not do what you want. But you seem to have got past that obstacle. Good luck with the rest of the setup
[02:04] <r3dr0p> ye
[02:05] <wizechatmgr> daftykins thanks a bunch... rolled it back and am upgrading it to 14 now...
[02:10] <daftykins> wizechatmgr: great news

[02:25] <Geese_Howard> daftykins, if he edit sources.list will not work?
 yes this is ubuntu desktop 32 bits
[02:25] <bynarie> neither is working for me.. ive rebooted
[02:26] <Geese_Howard> bynarie, export $PATH=/path/to/export ?
[02:26] <somsip> bynarie: path is usually set in .bashrc or .bash_aliases as "PATH=$PATH:/new/path/to/add". Did you try that?
[02:26] <bynarie> yea
[02:26] <somsip> bynarie: paste it please. paste.ubuntu.com
[02:26] <bynarie> specfically im using adb and fastboot from android sdk

[02:30] <VictorVR> arquebus, I do it. But when I click in the .sh file the gedit open
[02:32] <Daryl> Any ideas what Ubuntu 15.04 will be named? XD
[02:32] <rww> Daryl: probably after 14.10 is released
[02:32] <Daryl> kk
[02:34] <VictorVR> how can I execute a .sh file with double click?
[02:34] <Daryl> If im not mistaken was Ubuntu 14.10 goal to make things stabler and clean things up? reason i ask is the sayin of "spring cleaning"
[02:35] <somsip> Daryl: there is no real question in that sentence, and disucssions about 14.10 belong in #ubuntu+1
[02:35] <Daryl> ok...
[02:36] <_unreal_> VictorVR, make it executable and dbl click it
[02:36] <_unreal_> heh
[02:36] <_unreal_> sudo chmod +x file.sh
[02:36] <VictorVR> _unreal_, it don't work
[02:36] <_unreal_> what kind of a script file is it?
[02:37] <VictorVR> the script star a programam
[02:37] <VictorVR> a git client
[02:37] <mask> trying to install 14.04.1 with encrypted harddrive and LVM, process aborts after a few seconds without error message, only that encryption failed and it is aborting. any ideas what could cause this?
[02:38] <VictorVR> if I execut in terminal ./smartgithg.sh it works
[02:38] <arquebus> VictorVR: what happens when you run ./filename.sh in your console? maybe whats in your file wont execute, you might also want to put a shebang at the top of the file
[02:38] <VictorVR> when I type ./smartgithg.sh it works
[02:38] <_unreal_> arquebus, he wants to dlb click it like an EXE file
[02:39] <VictorVR> yes, is it
[02:39] <VictorVR> but it's dont works
[02:40] <arquebus> _unreal_: I know, if dbl click doesnt work then you have to test the file out in the console
[02:40] <VictorVR> I want to use ubuntu, but simple things is very complicated
[02:40] <_unreal_> VictorVR, linux is just about the same regardless of the distro source
[02:40] <_unreal_> the major differences is in the package system manager
[02:41] <VictorVR> arquebus, I tested it in console. when I type ./smartgithg.sh it works
[02:41] <arquebus> VictorVR: you could create a launcher on your desktop to click or you could create a link to the actual file you want to run
[02:41] <VictorVR> arquebus, How can I do it?
[02:42] <arquebus> VictorVR: In MATE you just r-click on the desktop and create a launcher, I dont know if you can do that in Unity
[02:42] <_unreal_> VictorVR, just create a launcher icon and then edit its propteries and add your launch command as you would in the console
[02:43] <_unreal_> sigh, my media pc has unity but its shut down right now and dont feel like waking it up
[02:43] <_unreal_> cause I'll wake up my daughter
[02:44] <VictorVR> rsrs
[02:44] <VictorVR> thankyou very much
[02:44] <VictorVR> you help a lot
[02:44] <arquebus> np
[02:44] <VictorVR> I can search how to create a laucher alone
[02:44] <VictorVR> thankssss
[02:44] <VictorVR> and sorry my english language
[02:45] <VictorVR> I'm from brasil
[02:45] <_unreal_> heh so your right below me
[02:45] <_unreal_> kind of
[02:46] <Geese_Howard> _unreal_, youre from Argentina?
[02:46] <Geese_Howard> rsrsrsr
[02:46] <_unreal_> ? no
[02:46] <daftykins> off topic people.
[02:47] <_unreal_> topic troll
[02:51] <nusr> sometimes when i open a virtual machine or have not enough memory, my system becomes unresponsive. how can i kill processes like in windows cntrl-alt-del..i've tried cntrl-alt-f2 which works when i have memory, but it doesn't when mem is all used up. i can't go into terminal either
[02:52] <daftykins> nusr: do you not have any swap?
[02:52] <redlance> So I got my Ubuntu file server all set up, it's also a plex media server and a Logitec audio server.  What's the best way to back up the system?  Not the data, but all the config files and related stuff.
[02:52] <somsip> !backup | redlance
[02:52] <nusr> i do on the main machine, but not on the virtual
[02:53] <daftykins> nusr: but it's the host getting affected, yes?
[02:54] <nusr> daftykins: yes the host is affected and the only way is to hard reset
[02:54] <daftykins> nusr: sounds like you're trying to allocate more than your system has
[02:55] <nusr> daftykins: a buffer overflow yes?
[02:56] <nusr> daftykins: so i probably haven't set a swap on my host, and the only way to get around that is to either get more ram or resintall and partition with a swap?
[02:57] <daftykins> how come the answer changed?
[02:57] <daftykins> nusr: share a pastebin or screenshot of 'top' running?
[02:58] <redlance> Okay, a related question.  If my motherboard conks out, I can just swap in a new one, right?   Just installing it changed system load average from 0.39 to 3.16 on a dual-core box
[03:06] <Sachiru> Nobody accessing the server yet.
[03:07] <PermaNull> daftykins, So..
[03:07] <PermaNull> it worked.
[03:07] <PermaNull> However, I screwed up and installed a 32bit distro instead of x64.
[03:07] <PermaNull> So back at it again now that I tried to deploy our software and failed lol
[03:08] <PermaNull> Sachiru, This is supposed to be a 'family friendly' chat from what I've been told so I'd avoid cusing.
[03:08] <daftykins> nusr: lol. my maths isn't ace but... yeah.
[03:09] <Sachiru> Sorry for offending your sensibilities, PermaNull
[03:09] <PermaNull> Sachiru, I said from what I've been told.
[03:09] <PermaNull> As In I did the same and got told the same.
[03:09] <Sachiru> But when you've spent 36 hours on getting nfSen to work on a dual core box that's supposed to handle only one netflow sender
[03:10] <PermaNull> Easy, don't use nfSen.
[03:10] <PermaNull> lol
[03:10] <Sachiru> And get unexplainable spikes on apache that render it unusable, and some form of integration conflict crap with Perl and Lighttpd and nfSen, you'd be just as pissed as I am
[03:10] <daftykins> Sachiru: this is a channel for ubuntu support, not whining
[03:10] <Sachiru> You don't know what nfSen is, do you, PermaNull
[03:10] <PermaNull> Sachiru, I've dealt with a lot of different linux related complications in my life.
[03:10] <daftykins> stop that.
[03:10] <nusr> daftykins: thanks..i'll watch youtube for the swap install and get more ram
[03:10] <PermaNull> And otherwise.
[03:10] <Sachiru> @daftykins yes, I am asking for support
[03:11] <PermaNull> I've been there and I still didn't whine about it.
[03:11] <daftykins> Sachiru: yet to see a question, just whining.
[03:11] <Sachiru> Regarding why just _installing_ apache2 is causing load to spike
[03:11] <PermaNull> Also that's apache support not ubuntu.
[03:11] <Sachiru> With nobody acccessing the server
[03:11] <PermaNull> go to apache and ask your question.
[03:11] <Sachiru> Ah crap
[03:12] <Sachiru> Did not see that this was #ubuntu and not #ubuntu-server
[03:12] <PermaNull> And I do know what nfSen is...
[03:12] <daftykins> guys, stop it
[03:12] <nusr> fight!
[03:12] <daftykins> nusr: don't.
[03:12] <PermaNull> nusr, no fight.
[03:12] <PermaNull> just an arrogant prick.
[03:13] <nusr> thanks guys. see you later.
[03:14] <PermaNull> daftykins, what do you do for work?
[03:14] <PermaNull> I'll trade you.
[03:14] <daftykins> it's not a chat channel
[03:14] <stalaktitas> http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view7/4909151/fight-club-o.gif

[03:22] <pak101> iptable yt
[03:22] <PermaNull> pak101, did you have a question?
[03:23] <pak101> permanull iptable was helping me with setting up fakeraid vols on ubuntu couple of days ago
[03:23] <PermaNull> Ahh, I didn't realize there was someone named iptable I thought you were asking for assitance with iptables.
[03:24] <pak101> PermaNull he said my controller does not support linux hence i am only able to see 3.2TB instead of of the full 8TB. but it works in fedora now, so wanted to check
[03:24] <pak101> PermaNull :) it happens
[03:29] <daftykins> pak101: that sounds like a bold claim on their part
[03:29] <daftykins> pak101: anywho what's the point in coming in here running fedora XD
[03:29] <pak101> daftykins about the fakeraid support?
[03:29] <daftykins> sounded more like a driver issue to me
[03:30] <whoever> pak101: what fakeraid
[03:30] <pak101> daftykins i dont want fedora i want to come back to ubuntu and wants to make it look full size
[03:30] <daftykins> oh right
[03:30] <daftykins> good luck then :D
[03:30] <whoever> pak101: is this cluster computing
[03:30] <daftykins> also #ubuntu-server
[03:30] <pak101> whoever fakeraid - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto#What_is_fakeRAID.3F
[03:31] <daftykins> cluster has nothing to do with fakeRAID
[03:31] <pak101> whoever no its a individual desktop
[03:32] <sargas> can I resize my ubuntu partition from Windows 7 side?
[03:33] <sargas> I want to make a small iso to use on VirtualBox
[03:33] <daftykins> sargas: sorry can you rephrase?
[03:33] <whoever> sargas: you can try  as long as you don't screw up the boot sector you should be fine
[03:34] <sargas> hmmm
[03:34] <sargas> I have a dual boot computer
[03:34] <daftykins> ok
[03:34] <sargas> I want to resize my Ubuntu partition and make an image off of it
[03:34] <whoever> pak101: why would you want to use fake raid, it sounds like a dirty trick that is just that dirty
[03:34] <sargas> so I can virtualize it on my Windows side
[03:35] <pak101> whoever i need data volume separately so i can sustain OS crashes
[03:35] <sargas> daftykins: does it make sense?
[03:35] <daftykins> sargas: yeah, i think you can actually VM a physical disk install directly though
[03:35] <sargas> oO
[03:36] <sargas> daftykins: really?
[03:36] <sargas> daftykins: from virtualbox and all
[03:36] <whoever> sargas: pak101 its sounds like what you realy want to do is datamine on a micro level to minimize downtime ?
[03:36] <daftykins> whoever: go troll elsewhere
[03:37] <daftykins> ignore this user, guys
[03:37] <whoever> pak101: here is what i did, get a 3Tb external, and put images there and or data
[03:37] <sargas> lol
[03:37] <daftykins> sargas: i think it was vbox yeah, check in their channel
[03:37] <sargas> I didn't even understand the question......
[03:37] <whoever> daftykins: not trolling
[03:37] <sargas> daftykins: ok I'll give it a shot
[03:37] <sargas> that would save a lot of time setting stuff up
[03:38] <pak101> whoever i have external copies as well but i want to keep downtime to minimal
[03:39] <whoever> pak101: you would be bettr suited(if you got the $$ to throw at some hds) to use the linux raid then that crappy fakeraid
[03:40] <whoever> pak101: is this a production or home enviroment
[03:40] <pak101> whoever ya i agree but linux raid does not work in case of OS crash. its home environment
[03:41] <whoever> pak101: yes it does work, set up you os, with the raid software, then make an image of that
[03:41] <Grimlock1182> gnustep-gui-runtime, I love this.. can speak through terminal :0LOL
[03:41] <sargas> daftykins: from vbox documentation:
[03:41] <sargas> daftykins: Raw hard disk access is for expert users only. Incorrect use or use of an outdated configuration can lead to total loss of data on the physical disk. Most importantly, do not attempt to boot the partition with the currently running host operating system in a guest. This will lead to severe data corruption.
[03:41] <whoever> pak101: or if your mobo has raid then you could use that
[03:41] <pak101> whoever hmm ya that makes sense i will ponder over it
[03:41] <sargas> daftykins: which means "no, I'm good" haha
[03:41] <daftykins> sargas: :)
[03:42] <sargas> daftykins: Maybe I'll transfer my Ubuntu image to an external drive and call it good :)
[03:43] <sargas> daftykins: Use it anywhere
[03:43] <whoever> pak101: incase you where wondering the question of home, production, is because with home  you usually don't need a downtime to be under an hour , so unless you want to you don't need to spend the cash
[03:43] <daftykins> sargas: of course Linux OSs are based on a file orientated system, so you could create a VM, then just scp all the files onto it and it'd match
[03:43] <pak101> whover s i get that. thanks for the idea
[03:43] <whoever> pak101: also i keep an extra hd or 2 just for quick swap if one dies
[03:44] <pak101> whoever ack
[03:45] <sargas> daftykins: so a secure copy on fresh ubuntu install would bring my machine back?
[03:45] <sargas> daftykins: that's sweet!
[03:45] <whoever> pak101: ack ?
[03:45] <daftykins> knowledged
[03:45] <pak101> whoever acknowledge your suggestion :)
[03:45] <whoever> pak101: thx
[03:49] <azizLIGHT> What units does default file manager use to describe file sizes? Kibibyte kilobyte megabit giga
[03:50] <whoever> azizLIGHT: bytes
[03:50] <azizLIGHT> Are they the 1024 kind or 1000 kind
[03:50] <whoever> azizLIGHT: what are you tring to do ? get a more human readable output ?
[03:50] <whoever> 1024.
[03:50] <azizLIGHT> Make nice partition sizes
[03:51] <azizLIGHT> I don't want 200.1
[03:51] <azizLIGHT> Wanna even number lol
[03:51] <azizLIGHT> Round
[03:52] <whoever> azizLIGHT: then use 100M or 10000G
[03:52] <azizLIGHT> whoever: you see I'm in Windows 8.1 setup right now, partitioning
[03:52] <azizLIGHT> I gonna dual boot with ubuntu
[03:52] <whoever> azizLIGHT: is this your first rodeo ?
[03:52] <azizLIGHT> But I want nice disk/partition size in ubuntu
[03:53] <whoever> azizLIGHT: well that is your first mistake using windows
[03:53] <azizLIGHT> And don't care about win8.1 sizes
[03:53] <azizLIGHT> I need it for games
[03:53] <whoever> there are serveral docs on how to do that
[03:54] <azizLIGHT> On how to get nice round numbers for disk partition via the windows 8.1 setup? Please link
[03:54] <whoever> you want a good game for windows ... pull the plug take the box to a cliff, and throw it over
[03:54] <azizLIGHT> OK...
[03:55] <whoever> azizLIGHT: you never gonna get nice round numbers because of overhead
[03:55] <azizLIGHT> What is overhead
[03:56] <whoever> you harddiski is say 100G, it will report  smaller  because after it is partitions some of it is use to store info about the sectors and fs that is used
[03:56]  * LeoDee laughs
[03:58] <azizLIGHT> How much is used
[03:59] <daftykins> lol such misinformation.
[03:59] <azizLIGHT> Windows says I got 232.9 GB (238474 MB)... And gparted says I got 232.89 GiB
[04:00] <whoever> azizLIGHT: that all depends on tha hardrive who made it, what size the drive is, and what fs is used
[04:01] <azizLIGHT> It's a "250" gb samsung 840 EVO ssd
[04:01] <whoever> azizLIGHT: for all intents and purposes that is the same size
[04:01] <whoever> azizLIGHT: you have to try it and find out
[04:02]  * whoever thinks this is azizLIGHT first rodeo
[04:02] <azizLIGHT> I have to try and find out what?
[04:03] <whoever> how much of the hardrive you actually get to use
[04:04] <whoever> azizLIGHT: just pick an fs, set it , check the size, if not repeat previous, till you find one that you like , just use  ext2/3
[04:05] <whoever> or get a pen and a few pads of paper for all your computing needs
[04:06] <azizLIGHT> Ok
[04:06] <azizLIGHT> I'll do it
[04:06] <azizLIGHT> Thanks

[04:10] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: can you pastebin it
[04:10] <MDTech-us_MAN> its 3 lines
[04:10] <MDTech-us_MAN> can I paste here?

[04:11] <whoever> echo "nameserver 8.8"
[04:11] <MDTech-us_MAN> azizLIGHT, /home typically is on the / partition
[04:11] <azizLIGHT> I will move mine out

[04:12] <whoever> home as many as you want
[04:12] <whoever> yes
[04:12] <azizLIGHT> And / p
[04:12] <whoever> azizLIGHT: that is somewhat the old way of doing it
[04:13] <azizLIGHT> What is the old way
[04:13] <whoever> now there is ususally just / and /boot
[04:13] <azizLIGHT> And how much space you didn't mention needed for /
[04:13] <MDTech-us_MAN> whoever
[04:13] <azizLIGHT> 14.04
[04:13] <MDTech-us_MAN> I did it
[04:13] <azizLIGHT> + programs I I install
[04:13] <whoever> azizLIGHT: / is everything other then boot
[04:13] <MDTech-us_MAN> still same problem
[04:14] <whoever> azizLIGHT: and /boot is the boot image which is abou 100M
[04:14] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: ye
[04:14] <whoever> *yes
[04:14] <azizLIGHT> How much space ubuntu 14.04 needs on /
[04:15] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: can you pastebin resolv.conf
[04:15] <whoever> zaspire: 100M
[04:15] <whoever> azizLIGHT: ah
[04:15] <MDTech-us_MAN> whoever, I just did echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" >> /etc/resolv.conf
[04:15] <whoever> azizLIGHT: /  as big as you want
[04:15] <azizLIGHT> How big is ubuntu
[04:17] <MDTech-us_MAN> so resolv.conf = "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>"
[04:17] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: now cat resolv.conf , you should see nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:17] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: do you
[04:17] <xangua> 4GB minimum, if you plan installing programs go for 10/20/50 depending your needs azizLIGHT
[04:17] <azizLIGHT> Ah ok
[04:17] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: also did you restart networking
[04:17] <Dr_Dan> anyone successful at getting Juniper Network Connect (JNC)  working on their rig?
[04:17] <azizLIGHT> xangua: how big is your ubuntu now
[04:17] <MDTech-us_MAN> I do get nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:19] <MDTech-us_MAN> and yes I did restart the service
[04:20] <somsip> azizLIGHT: time to do some reading http://is.gd/bt5YZe http://is.gd/n7mCpy
[04:20] <whoever> MDTech-us_MAN: so can you browse the web
[04:22]  * whoever bed time
[04:23] <azizLIGHT> somsip: how to tell my bios is efi
[04:24] <azizLIGHT> Or legacy
[04:24] <somsip> azizLIGHT: no idea. Search your mobo spec maybe
[04:24] <azizLIGHT> And therefore whether I need efi portion or bios-boot
[04:24] <M0J0> look for efi setting in bios setup configuration
[04:24] <azizLIGHT> Mine has both
[04:24] <azizLIGHT> It says I can choose
[04:25] <azizLIGHT> 3 options
[04:25] <M0J0> then your mobo supports both and you pick one or the other
[04:25] <azizLIGHT> Uefi only, legacy only, or Uefi and legacy
[04:25] <azizLIGHT> Ok
[04:25] <M0J0> the last one will let the os decide
[04:25] <daftykins> it'll install to the mode that you boot the install media in
[04:25] <daftykins> !uefi | azizLIGHT

[04:40] <jr_> How can I tell a script is running that I placed in init.d?
[04:40] <chovy> does anyone know how to minimize a window in Ubutunt?
[04:41] <Dr_Dan> ps -aux  ?
[04:41] <jr_> Dr_Dan: how do I find it's id?
[04:41] <jr_> brb
[04:41] <Bolt_Thrower138> top
[04:41] <Dr_Dan> yeah top too

[04:42] <Bolt_Thrower138> htop  has a lot more info,  you may have to install it though
[04:42] <jr_> somsip: thanks
[04:43] <somsip> jr_: np
[04:45] <chovy> seriously? nobody here knows either?
[04:45] <boldfilter1> Knows what?
[04:45] <chovy> how to minimize a window
[04:45] <PermaNull> yeah knows what?
[04:46] <PermaNull> -_-
[04:46] <chovy> i cannot figure it out. been trying for a week
[04:46] <PermaNull> chovy...
[04:46] <mozzarella> click the minimize button
[04:46] <PermaNull> Be more descriptive.
[04:46] <boldfilter1> You mean in the unity
[04:46] <chovy> yeah
[04:46] <andc> My brightness control is not working in ubuntu... Help !!
[04:46] <boldfilter1> You gotta download the compiz manager
[04:46] <chovy> so there's a window
[04:46] <chovy> i'd like to minimize it
[04:46] <boldfilter1> The option is in there
[04:47] <PermaNull> You know people could be running ratpoison and then ask how to minimize a window
[04:47] <chovy> let me show you a screenshot
[04:47] <PermaNull> which is why I say more descriptive.

[04:49] <xangua> chovy: buttons appear in the panel when cursor over it
[04:49] <cool_boy> Hi I need to copy some directories inside /opt but I am not able to , I am using cp command to copy after I get errors like "cp: omitting directory ‘project-common/config’"
[04:49] <boldfilter1> Chovy go up there where the text is
[04:49] <squinty> chovy,  hover your mouse over  New Tab chromium   the window buttons should then appear
[04:49] <chovy> xangua: that's the ohter thing. i'm using a mac keybaorad and modifier keys are backwards.
[04:49] <chovy> is there anyway to tell ubutntu to swap them?
[04:49] <PermaNull> http://ubuntuhandbook.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/MinimizeOnClick.gif
[04:49] <PermaNull> I've never used unity so Idk much about it.
[04:50] <chovy> squinty: oh man. you are the boss
[04:50] <chovy> PermaNull: that doesn't work for me
[04:51] <squinty> chovy,  if you don't run your apps at full screen the window buttons appear where they normally are on the apps top panel
[04:51] <boldfilter1> Gotta enable that second method chovy
[04:51] <PermaNull> squinty, http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/minimize-application-window-on-click-for-ubuntu-14-04-unity-launcher/
[04:51] <PermaNull> Guess if you'd prefer doing it that way instead it would work.
[04:52] <squinty> PermaNull,  please do not send me stuff I did not ask for
[04:53] <PermaNull> Sorry squinty I meant to say chovy.
[04:53] <PermaNull> My apologizes I'm tired.
[04:53] <Dr_Dan> Bolt_Thrower138, my only problem with htop is the upper portion with the bar graphs dont show too well in my semi-transparent terminal. ;)
[04:53] <PermaNull> *apologies
[04:54] <squinty> PermaNull,  np :)
[04:54] <somsip> chovy: on your other query, without knowing anything about mac keyboards, this might work: http://is.gd/BTfMoE
[04:56] <samthewildone> anyone know about [Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"] ?
[04:56] <somsip> cool_boy: you probably need to copy recursively, eg: cp -R /opt/folder /new/location

[05:01] <Hacker_A> last question ,are you bot?
[05:02] <PermaNull> daftykins, finally came back to that server and fixed it.. done now lol.
[05:02] <daftykins> \o/
[05:02] <daftykins> i forget the original issue
[05:02] <daftykins> but yaaaaay
[05:02] <PermaNull> Note to anyone using SuperMicro IPMI.. don't try to mount the ISO from a remote network ;).
[05:02] <PermaNull> ^ That was the original issue.
[05:03] <ObrienDave> PermaNull, will keep that in mind :)
[05:03] <bhavik> any news on ubuntu  for mobil?
[05:03] <cfhowlett> !touch | bhavik
[05:03] <PermaNull> ObrienDave, It's strange it mounts and works slightly (runs the installer/etc, almost passed integrity or does sometimes) but then eventually it randomly unmounts.
[05:04] <PermaNull> Given why I say remote network is my configuration is OpenVPN into an "IPMI" network from a remote location, but with my speeds and being less then 20 miles from the DC it shouldn't be an big issue.
[05:08] <Dr_Dan> speaking VPN,  anyone setup Juniper Network Connect
[05:08] <Dr_Dan> it seems it only work in RHEL
[05:08] <Dr_Dan> no ubuntu
[05:08] <jj995> how can I decrypt a PGP MESSAGE message sent to my gmail account?  I tried copying between the BEGIN/END lines into a text file and running "gpg --output doc --decrypt doc.encrypted" but I got the error "gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found."
[05:10] <Dr_Dan> theres a plugin for chroe called mailvelope
[05:10] <Dr_Dan> chrome
[05:11] <jj995> Dr_Dan: do you know how to just decrypt it using command line?
[05:11] <Dr_Dan> no,   sorry
[05:12] <Dr_Dan> try setting up mailbelope
[05:12] <Dr_Dan> mailvelope
[05:12]  * Dr_Dan needs stop drinking so much coffee
[05:13] <jj995> what does "gpg: no valid  OpenPGP data found."
[05:13] <jj995> *what does "gpg: no valid  OpenPGP data found." mean? does it mean that the file to decrypt is in the wrong format, or does it mean it failed to find a proper key (or does it mean something else?)

[05:26] <hacker> cool thank you
[05:27] <Abhijit> whats the journalctl -f -l alternate for ubuntu? I want to trouble shoot why my pppoeconf and NetworkManager fails for my new ISP pppoe.
[05:50] <jorenl_> Does anyone have any tips on changing some apps'
[05:50] <daftykins> !details
[05:50] <jorenl_>  unity tray icons? they look really inconsistent.
[05:50] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, changing apps to what?  oranges?  Lemons?
[05:50] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, oh.  sorry.  please ignore me
[05:51] <jorenl_> I accidently pressed enter too soonm I'm sorry. I meant to continue (as in apps' tray icons)
[05:51] <Abhijit_> whats the journalctl -f -l alternate for ubuntu? I want to trouble shoot why my pppoeconf and NetworkManager fails for my new ISP pppoe.
[05:52] <jorenl_> I've done a fair deal off googling, and I've seen a lot of unsuccesful and unresolved threads - but I was wondering if anyone here has a different take on the topic.
[05:53] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, inconsistent display can often be solved by proper display configuration for the GPU
[05:53] <somsip> Abhijit_: dunno if this helps (search for journalctl) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers
[05:54] <Abhijit_> somsip, okey. will check.
[05:54] <jorenl_> cfhowlett: My GPU graphics are fine, the issues I have are purely aesthetic. The default ubuntu unity tray icons are monochrome (and become colored when a notification pops up, say) but a lot of smaller applications that add notification area functionality have inconsistent theming. I am looking for a way to override that with my own icons.
[05:55] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, so this is really custom theming?
[05:57] <jorenl_> cfhowlett: if you want to call it that, yes. Although I'm trying to integrate non-matching, 3rd party apps with the default theme. (I know this might seem like a rediculous detail, but these icons *are* always visible.)
[05:58] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, not ridiculous.  in fact, fairly typical *buntu user behavior  :)
[05:59] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, this seems to be a likely start point   http://sourcedigit.com/8704-customize-ubuntu-install-ubuntu-14-04-themes/
[06:01] <jorenl_> cfhowlett: so I'm perfectly fine with the default ubuntu theme. It's changing 3rd party apps' icons (not included in the default theme) that I'm looking into. (say, skype, calendar-indicator, alarm-clock, notification history, ...)
[06:02] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, sorry, I've no suggestions beyond this.   ask around some more.
[06:02] <jorenl_> I wouldn't mind if this was a little involved, if I need to write some software to do it I could just share it for whoever else is bothered by the incosistency.
[06:02] <jorenl_> Thanks a lot for the help so far!
[06:04] <cfhowlett> jorenl_, happy2help
[06:04] <daftykins> i'd just switch to xubuntu.
[06:05] <jorenl_> daftykins: well, that's a little intense
[06:05] <daftykins> ;)
[06:05] <daftykins> honestly something's wrong if you're worried about the colours of icons
[06:06] <jorenl_> daftykins: that's so invalids, there's a reason designers care about things like that in all software
[06:06] <louis__> unbuntu-fr
[06:06] <cfhowlett> !fr | louis__
[06:06] <daftykins> although when you say they're black and white, that suggests there is something wrong
[06:07] <daftykins> jorenl_: yeah designers, but not users.
[06:07] <jorenl_> daftykins: we;; I care, I'm a user
[06:07] <jorenl_> well*
[06:07] <daftykins> them only occasionally having colour does sound a bit like a graphical problem
[06:08] <jorenl_> daftykins: I can assure you I'm not having any graphical issues.
[06:09] <daftykins> then how come you have that affect when it's not the norm?
[06:09] <jorenl_> daftykins: what I'm seeing is perfectly standard behavior. All default icons are in white unity theme, but some apps that I've installed aren't and I'd like to change that.
[06:10] <daftykins> i see
[06:10] <daftykins> good luck
[06:12] <Mattias> Hm, the http download for latest ubuntu-desktop 64bit gives me 32bit no matter how many times I redownload it and install it. So I finally went alternative downloads and used torrents. This time it finally actually installed 64bit ubuntu! Something wrong with the link to regular download? It does say amd64 in the iso name but that doesn't seem to be correct...
[06:12] <ObrienDave> Mattias, what is the link you tried to use?
[06:15] <Mattias> ObrienDave: from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download  I go to ubuntu desktop -> choose 64bit, press download -> then I get this iso: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04.1/ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
[06:16] <Mattias> ObrienDave: I downloaded the same one a month ago, but I never noticed I had 32bit OS until... I had to use my 64bit virtual machines. Which totally failed. so I thought I missdownloaded the wrong iso, downloaded this one again yesterday and it still installed 32bit...
[06:16] <rsv> I have a 32-bit ubuntu (12.04) - I have lots of data in my home directory. What is the easiest way of upgrading to a 64-bit machine without backing up the home directory(I dont want ubuntu installer to erase my home directory)
[06:17] <daftykins> you should backup regardless
[06:17] <rsv> by the way, i have a 64-bit machine. I want to upgrade to a 64-bit machine
[06:17] <Mattias> rsv: What I do is, just zip down the entire home directory with permissions. I actually have my home on its own harddrive. Then I just mount it after install
[06:17] <hateball> rsv: Do you have /home on a separate partition? Otherwise you will need to backup. And as daftykins points out, backing up is good regardless
[06:17] <cfhowlett> rsv, you must clean install 64 bit.  backup.  torrent the 64 bit.  make a !home and install
[06:17] <Mattias> mount it in /etc/fstab that is
[06:17] <rsv> daftykins: i dont have any backup media which is more than 100GB
[06:17] <cfhowlett> !home | rsv
[06:18] <rsv> hateball: my home is part of "/"
[06:18] <Mattias> rsv: I'd suggest get a dedicated home drive :) format it to ext4 and just move all files there
[06:18] <rsv> ubottu: i knew that. But unfortunately, my home is part of the "root" directory and i have only one partition
[06:19] <hateball> rsv: Do you have spare space on the drive? You could re-partition and move the data, using gparted-live for instance
[06:19] <hateball> rsv: And then reinstall 64-bit, mounting the new partition as /home
[06:19] <rsv> hateball: no i dont have spare space
[06:19] <Mattias> I'd hate it if the install-script accidently erased the entire disk :P which is why I would never have /home on its own partition like that
[06:20] <rsv> hateball: i guess i know what i need to do. i will borrow a harddrive from a friend or someone and copy the home directory
[06:20] <Mattias> rsv: buy a good ssd for the actual system install, then buy a cheap large regular drive for /home
[06:21] <rsv> Mattias: i dont have money to buy an ssd. I have a 1TB of usb drive. But i cant touch it as it is full of movies and images
[06:21] <hateball> rsv: It's a pain, but so it goes

[07:14] <cateract> I want to ask, that, where do we put the sender info in system
[07:14] <cateract> there??
[07:16] <cfhowlett> cateract, RTM:   man <command here>
[07:18] <cateract> cfhowlett, isn't there anything like export_email to set sender email id
[07:18] <cfhowlett> cateract, I'm not familiar with the command so ... I'd read the man page :)
[07:19] <cateract> cfhowlett, alright :)
[07:20] <wmp> hello, why in 14.04 openvpn and tun0 interface works, but kernel haven't tun module
[07:23] <demahum12> Is there a way to set default workspace that will open when you turn on computer (on startup)?
[07:35] <demahum12> Is there a way to set default workspace that will open when you turn on computer (on startup)?
[07:44] <Lope> I'm running 14.04 and I just tried the 3.15rc2 kernel and my system crashed on startup, showing some stream errors on the screen. I'm booting from USB3. I'd like to report the issue. how can I find the previous boot log on my system? (I booted back into the 3.14 kernel)
[07:46] <Ben64> Lope: uh, the latest kernel in 14.04 is 3.13
[07:46] <DemonJester> hey guys, would anyone know if I can make custom username in ncat
[07:46] <DemonJester> instead of user*
[07:47] <Lope> Ben64: yeah, but these kernels have been compiled for trusty: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.15-rc2-trusty/
[07:47] <Ben64> Lope: no support is provided for those, you're on your own if you choose to use them
[07:49] <Lope> Ben64: I'm not asking for support, I want to report the issue so that when they work on the release candidate they know about it. I want to help.
[07:50] <Ben64> Lope: i don't believe there is method of doing so
[07:53] <Lope> yeah it looks kind of complicated, hopefully they'll find it. https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/reporting-bugs.html
[07:53] <Lope> I was hoping a new kernel will solve my issue. Lately I can't shut down or reboot. When I try to do that, my PC goes to sleep instead.
[07:53] <azizLIGHT> How much space for root partition for ubuntu 14.04 desktop?
[07:53] <azizLIGHT> Recommendation?
[07:54] <azizLIGHT> Root partition separate from /home
[07:54] <somsip> azizLIGHT: you did this for hours earlier...
[07:54] <azizLIGHT> Yes
[07:54] <azizLIGHT> Yes I did
[07:54] <Ben64> then why ask again?
[07:54] <somsip> azizLIGHT: whoever gave you lots of advice and I gave you links to the ubuntu FAQs/guides
[07:54] <POVaddct> Lope: the kernel version already moved to 3.16. 3.15rc2 is just a kernel release candidate from 3.15 which was used by the person who packaged the ppa. it is outdated now and should not be used.
[07:55] <azizLIGHT> I read all the links too
[07:55] <azizLIGHT> I learnt about gpt
[07:55] <POVaddct> Lope: using packages from ppa repos is not always a good idea
[07:56] <somsip> azizLIGHT: no one can give you a "right" answer. It all depends on your system and your use case. You *have* to make your own mind up once you've read the guidelines
[07:56] <azizLIGHT> But they didn't mention sizr
[07:56] <azizLIGHT> Ok
[07:56] <Ben64> Oct 02 2014 21:20:08 <somsip>	azizLIGHT: time to do some reading http://is.gd/bt5YZe http://is.gd/n7mCpy
[07:56] <azizLIGHT> Is 10gb a good size
[07:56] <somsip> azizLIGHT: that's why. There is no right answer. Just lots and lots of lots of answers that will work
[07:56] <Ben64> read that again
[07:56] <azizLIGHT> Ben64: those are good links
[07:57] <somsip> azizLIGHT: so accept responsibility for your build and make a decision based upon what you have learned
[07:57] <azizLIGHT> Ok
[07:58] <azizLIGHT> I am scared because it says your system will be locked
[07:58] <azizLIGHT> If full
[07:58] <Lope> POVaddct: thanks, I can't see any trusty kernels beyond 3.15rc2? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[07:58] <cfhowlett> azizLIGHT, so ... make it more than 10 gb
[08:00] <POVaddct> Lope: of course. distro makers usually pick a kernel version existing at the time of the distro release and keep that version. they only make bugfixes and security fixes for that version.
[08:01] <POVaddct> Lope: so it is normal the upstream kernel version moves away from that. the distro makers decide which parts of newer kernel they backport into their older version.
[08:02] <Lope> Okay. Lately my system suspends instead of shutdown/reboot. Any ideas how to find out the issue?
[08:04] <Lope> gonna try reboot again
[08:07] <POVaddct> Lope: how do you shutdown/reboot? with some button? (i don't use the default desktop here)
[08:07] <Lope> just from the main menu
[08:07] <Lope> it used to work :/
[08:08] <Lope> brb
[08:09] <azizLIGHT> Can lvm resize / and /home
[08:10] <azizLIGHT> If its inside a fixed luks container
[08:17] <Quatroking> hi
[08:17] <Weethus> hay
[08:17] <Quatroking> question: how can I make a shortkey on my keyboard that switches "synclient HorizTwoFingerScroll" to 1 and 0?
[08:18] <Quatroking> right now I use two shortcuts for both 1 and 0 but I'd rather use one
[08:22] <Lope> every day, i boot up my PC (ubuntu 14.04) open up all my dev software, and write code the whole day. In the last week, when I try shut down or reboot, my PC suspends instead. Then I press the power button, it powers up, and then shuts down/reboots (depending which I asked for). Now as a test, I've done a fresh boot, got my dev environment going and then rebooted (without any trouble), 2x. It seems to only happen after extended use. Any
[08:22] <Lope>  ideas?
[08:22] <derfdref2> Hello world!
[08:23] <Quatroking> Lope, did you check your power options?
[08:24] <derfdref2> Any networking gurus around at the moment?
[08:24] <Quatroking> I own a CCNA certificate but I wouldn't call myself a guru
[08:25] <Lope> Quatroking: my options are all fine, they haven't changed in the last month, and as I said, I've just tested a quick boot, starting up my dev environment and then rebooting without any problems, so the options are fine.
[08:27] <Lope> I wonder if it's because my hard drives have gone to sleep when I shut down. I boot off the SSD, but my sda (working, but unused) is a mechanical hard drive.
[08:27] <Lope> Because after a fresh boot the mechanical drive is probably spinning for a few mins.
[08:27] <mormo> cleane installed ubuntu 14.04, replacing a working 13.10. now I can't open system settings. tried reinstalling, but same again. system settings does not open via gui or terminal. any ideas please?
[08:27] <Quatroking> try it out, lope
[08:28] <Quatroking> boot the machine, wait until the hdd spins down, object it to your tests
[08:28] <derfdref2> I'm trying to get a solid answer one way or another if bridge_fd, bridge_hello and bridge_*age* in /etc/network/interfaces do nothing if STP is off, anyone know?
[08:28] <Quatroking> I'm jealous though, at least you can suspend, my laptop has a dead GPU and my nouveau driver won't resume :(
[08:30] <Lope> Quatroking: how can I know if the HDD is spinning or not? (it's inside a laptop)
[08:30] <Lope> I've actually got the option "spin down hard disks when possible" unticked.
[08:30] <Lope> There goes that theory.
[08:31] <Lope> I can also try shutdown -p instead of -h
[08:32] <impi> hey guys
[08:33] <impi> just want to say that it's been a couple of days with 14.04 and my nvidia heating problem that i had has been gone ever since i turned down all my bios intel turbo and sata performance modes
[08:33] <Quatroking> Lope, well, a good ear would help you with detecting if it's spinning or not
[08:33] <Quatroking> :P
[08:33] <impi> max  heat ive seen so far is 61C but it's a heck load better than 89C

[08:36] <vapsieee> Hey guys, have some servers, looking to install Ubuntu on them, but my boss didnt buy the adapters for USB/VGA display in the auction, is it possible to remove the harddrive and install ubuntu onto it using an internal hdd dock on my windows machine without messing up the MBR of my main hard drive etc, but still get grub /MBR setup on the external?
[08:37] <cfhowlett> boboo, use virtualbox
[08:37] <Quatroking> boboo, sure, just a min
[08:37] <boboo> thanks
[08:37] <mario55> aloo
[08:38] <boboo> how do I install virtual box on ubuntu ??
[08:38] <cfhowlett> !virtualbox | boboo
[08:38] <Quatroking> boboo, https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=WKST-1003-LX&productId=362&rPId=6100
[08:38] <Quatroking> if you want virtualbox you can get it off the ubuntu software center
[08:39] <boboo> many thanks guys let me look at the Links  many many thanks
[08:45] <Quatroking> anyways, my question again, I know how I can assign "synclient HorizTwoFingerScroll=0" to a key, but how can I make it so this key switches it between 0 and 1?
[08:50] <Zeedox> What is the recommended way to generate an xorg.conf? I suspect mine is formatted incorrectly, and googling brought me conflicting information.
[08:52] <Zeedox> Gettings bad performance with xserver-xorg-video-radeon but fglrx doesn't output the correct DPI (I think).
[09:03] <jjohnsson> I have a problem on Ubuntu 14.04, Unity, where java apps start using 100 percent cpu after a while. They keep working, but to get cpu usage down I have to kill them. Is this a known issue? Does someone know how to fix it?
[09:04] <jjohnsson> possibly started after I started using virtual desktops.
[09:10] <ivo> if only admins can access to sudosh what is it for?
[09:12] <Ben64> Guest15257: what do you mean
[09:12] <Guest15257> I mean...if you need to sudo -s to be able to open sudosh why not just simply use root shell?
[09:13] <cfhowlett> Guest15257, sudosh?  no such command ...
[09:13] <Guest15257> sudosh is a shell
[09:13] <Ben64> exactly ^
[09:13] <Ben64> not in ubuntu
[09:14] <Guest15257> http://sourceforge.net/projects/sudosh/
[09:14] <Guest15257> sudosh is a sudo shell, filter and can be used as a login shell. Sudosh records all keystrokes and output and can play back the session as just like a VCR.
[09:14] <Ben64> ok?
[09:14] <cfhowlett> Guest15257, so .. it's definitely not in ubuntu by default.  suggest you ask the packagers/programmers for support
[09:14] <k1l> Guest15257: ask the maker of that program. its not ubuntu ones
[09:15] <Guest15257> okay
[09:15] <Guest15257> the point is I was looking for the answer to my problem...
[09:15] <Guest15257> that is I have two users
[09:16] <k1l> !away > arif_afk
[09:16] <Guest15257> the first one is the one which installed the system
[09:16] <Guest15257> and the second one some old home folder I just reactivated
[09:17] <Guest15257> I wish to turn the old user into admin and delete the first one
[09:18] <cfhowlett> Guest15257, as admin, go to users/groups and elevate the user properties to admin.  logout/login as new admin user and lower privileges of the other account to desktop user
[09:21] <Guest15257> cfhowlett do I need to add the admintobe user to all the groups the realadmin belongs to?
[09:21] <cfhowlett> Guest15257, I believe changing the user properties also modifies the groups
[09:23] <Quatroking> question: does a free ubuntu alternative to civ exist
[09:24] <Ben64> civ is...?
[09:24] <Quatroking> I used to play a lot of civ 5 on this laptop but eventually the gpu died and my units started to turn into demonspawn
[09:24] <Quatroking> sid meier's civillization
[09:24] <cfhowlett> Quatroking, look in ubuntu software center: games
[09:24] <Quatroking> that's kind of like suggesting "go to a library" when someone asks for a book :/
[09:25] <boboo> ok so i have install virtual box and now i am trying to creat a machine  but at the end i keep getting an error
[09:25] <boboo> http://u.cubeupload.com/letflint/e29Screenshotfrom201410.png
[09:25] <boboo> http://u.cubeupload.com/letflint/24fScreenshotfrom201410.png
[09:25] <cfhowlett> boboo, install dkms
[09:26] <Quatroking> sudo apt-get install dkms
[09:26] <boboo> ok will do
[09:26] <boboo> thanks
[09:26] <Quatroking> also, for pleasure, apt-get moo
[09:26] <Ben64> might also need build-essential
[09:27] <Ben64> and linux-headers$(uname -r | sed s/^.*[0-9]\-/-/g)
[09:30] <cristian_> hello
[09:31] <cristian_> how can I repair a messy boot?
[09:31] <cfhowlett> !details | cristian_,
[09:31] <Quatroking> if you know what went messy, use a livecd and fix it up
[09:31] <Quatroking> happened to me yesterday when I blacklisted a driver that I wasn't supposed to blacklist
[09:33] <cristian_> when it loads the system it lists to many things before the login screen
[09:33] <cristian_> I messed around with terminal
[09:33] <cristian_> to get some things working
[09:33] <boboo> apt-get moo  was nice but still stuck with same error on virtual box
[09:35] <cristian_> the problem is that i used terminal to either get my brightnes levels in check
[09:35] <boboo> how do i run the vdboxdrv setup  i am runing it in terminal  but nothing happens
[09:35] <cristian_> or the video driver installed
[09:35] <cristian_> I have a intel 3000 Hd graphics

[09:43] <nrbrtx> Dear all! I'm writing this message from Ubuntu 14.04.1, it's very good, but has very annoying bugs: bug  1245137, bug 1242572, bug 1263228,  bug 1244090, bug 1270574, bug 1270579, bug 1280759. Is any chance to ask developers to fix them?
[09:44] <cfhowlett> nrbrtx, the bugs have been reported= developers have been asked to fix them.
 I understand, but how to highlight these bugs? I tried to ask on #ubuntu-devel with no luck.
[09:48] <cfhowlett> nrbrtx, if you mean "triaged" ... fixes/fixers are assigned as priority and importance dictates.  thus heartbleed/shock are addressed with immediacy and other bugs ... aren't.  I see that 124572 is low priority with fix in progress.  the others will also move up/down the list as time/demand/priority dictate
[09:48] <cfhowlett> nrbrtx, chillax/relax/keep an eye out
[09:49] <nrbrtx> cfhowlett: these bugs make life with 14.04+ harder, but 12.04 does not have these bugs (except bug 1270579 ). So I stay on 12.04.
[09:50] <cfhowlett> nrbrtx, 12.04 is supported until 2017.  enjoy.
[09:50] <nrbrtx> cfhowlett: thanks.
[09:54] <vinit-ivar> anybody got any idea how i use the base16 builder
[09:54] <vinit-ivar> ?
[09:56] <vinit-ivar> ah, never mind, figured it out
[09:59] <PaulVern> !cn aah_
[10:08] <viktor89> is there a way to revert an apt-get install?
[10:10] <cfhowlett> viktor89, there is not
[10:11] <cfhowlett> viktor89, but you can purge and then install a specific numbered package
[10:12] <ticket> hello
[10:13] <ticket> I have installed ubuntu 14 with a dvd, and now I can only see grub rescue >
[10:15] <ticket> grub says it can't find one disk, displaying its uuid
[10:15] <viktor89> cfhowlett how close to a revert would that be? Problem is i did an "apt-get install sendmail" on a server running plesk admin panel. Now my admin panel has no mail settings anymore :(
[10:16] <cfhowlett> viktor89, *punt*  ask #ubuntu-server or ##linux.  I've no experience with sendmail or server so ... don't want to misadvise.
[10:20] <ticket> it says no such partition
[10:21] <jamiew0w> Hi guys, I have a few questions about setting up SSL on apache, anyone got a few minutes spare that I could query?
[10:21] <cfhowlett> ticket, many things could have gone sideways.  I'm gong to guess: this machine is newer and had windows 8 on it?
[10:21] <ticket> aand grub rescue doesn't understand any command
[10:21] <ticket> cfhowlett: my machine had ubuntu 12 working, aside windows 7
[10:22] <cfhowlett> ticket, ah, so then we can probably assume no uefi/gpt issues.  good!
[10:22] <ticket> I want to still have win 7 , so I installed ubuntu 14 aside
[10:22] <cfhowlett> ticket, 1.  verify the .iso you downloaded.  2. verify the USB you made
[10:22] <cfhowlett> !md5sum | ticket
[10:23] <ticket> my dvd is good I guess, I can run it in the try version
[10:23] <demahum12> Is there a way to set that when you turn on computer it starts in custom workspace?
[10:24] <cfhowlett> ticket, "I guess" ...
[10:28] <VictorCL> hi, I am trying to connect to a pptp vpn from ubuntu 14.04
[10:28] <VictorCL> and I configured it but when I select it it does nothing
[10:28] <VictorCL> not an error or nothing
[10:29] <cyber_dweller> demahum12, what do you mean?
[10:30] <demahum12> cyber_dweller, for example, if you have 25 workspaces, to make Ubuntu start in 12th workspace instead of in first.
[10:31] <minimec> demahum12: I question I always had myself. So I checked it. In fact there is a way. You can add a new entry in 'Startup Applications' with this a scontent: 'wmctrl -s <workspace_name>'. Never tested that myself, but should be working, I guess. see here... http://askubuntu.com/questions/41093/is-there-a-command-to-go-a-specific-workspace
[10:32] <demahum12> minimec, haha, nice advice, although you haven't tried it yet. :D However, I just found something similar here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/410419/how-to-set-the-default-workspace
[10:33] <demahum12> minimec, but I'll try your approach also, if yours doesn't work. Thanks.
[10:38] <MagicSpud> hey Iptable it went quite good

[11:07] <asakapab0i> Thoughts on zpanel ubuntu?
[11:10] <syspanic> hi, i'm running ubuntu server 13.10 with zentyal small business server on top of it and I can access it via lan with ssh. The problem is when i authenticate via ssh it says permission denied on /home/mymainuser 's home dir. I sudo su and then I've even tried to set chmod 777 perms but when i tried to login with myuser it also said "permission denie
[11:10] <syspanic> d"
[11:11] <syspanic> does anyone know what i should do to fix this?
[11:11] <syspanic> (plz help!)
[11:15] <lotuspsychje> syspanic: maybe the #ubuntu-server guys might know
[11:15] <jpds> syspanic: chmod 777 anything is a bad idea.
[11:15] <bazhang> !13.10 | syspanic
[11:16] <syspanic> jpds: yes i know, i did it just to check if the user can access its home dir again, i'll revert back asap
[11:16] <graingert> syspanic: why did you chmod 777 on a prod machine?
[11:16] <graingert> syspanic: you should probably restore from backup now
[11:18] <bobo> hi
[11:19] <syspanic> graingert: :S
[11:21] <borsoko> Can i have question here with boot problem?

[11:22] <MagicSpud> hello I am back again with wallch issue
[11:23] <MagicSpud> the point is the program seems to be working flawlessly but the image simply is not displaying on desktop
[11:23] <MagicSpud> any clue?
[11:23] <MagicSpud> how can I find out what is failing?
[11:23] <MagicSpud> any test command I could run or folder to look in?

[11:27] <jishjish> hi all - I'm able to successfully delete a single directory which contains a file using rm -rf [directory]. But when I try to pipe a list of empty directories I found to the rm -rf command to delete them. It fails. I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure it out.
[11:27] <jishjish> find /media/josh/JOSHapollo/ -depth -type d -empty | rm -rf
[11:28] <borsoko> low graphic mode now not working
[11:28] <borsoko> and i don't want to reinstall my ubuntu :(
[11:29] <hateball> jishjish: use -exec with find
[11:29] <jishjish> borsoko: have you tried the live cd see if that works?
[11:30] <jishjish> hateball: pardon my ignorance but why doesn't piping one command to another work instead of the -exec option?
[11:30] <borsoko> yep now i'm on live cd and kiwi irc hoping that i find solution here
[11:31] <war10ck> hi
[11:31] <hateball> jishjish: because you'd have to use a for loop converting the results of find into a variable to push into rm
[11:31] <borsoko> hi
[11:31] <jishjish> hateball: but doesn't find -type d find a list of directories and RM take as input a list of directories to delete?
[11:32] <hateball> jishjish: I think find would just send the first result to the piped command, or something garbled
[11:32] <jishjish> borsoko: how is your graphics on your live cd?
[11:32] <hateball> jishjish: At any rate, here is a simple example using -exec, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-how-to-find-and-remove-files/
[11:32] <RustyShackleford> is there a way to make alt+tab behave the old way?
[11:32] <borsoko> very good everything works
[11:32] <RustyShackleford> That is, switching between instances of a program too?
[11:33] <hateball> jishjish: if for some reason you want to pipe, you'll need to use xargs
[11:33] <jishjish> hateball whats that [xargs] all about?
[11:35] <hateball> jishjish: it takes what you feed it and sends to the command after, so rm doesnt go nuts. anyhow, using -exec is better imo... only spawns one command and it's simple enough
[11:36] <borsoko> i think maybe was some update or something like that, i suppose it's software issue or driver

[11:56] <therealjayvi> is it possible to use grub or something else to make my windows xp.vhd boot from bios?
[11:57] <MagicSpud> hello help me solve this please: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/78022
[12:00] <cfhowlett> !es | MagicSpud,
[12:00] <therealjayvi> Ive been having the roughest time trying to figure out how to install windows AFTER ubuntu as a dual boot. Is it possible to use my already existing .vhd or is it possible to do from an .iso at least?
[12:01] <MagicSpud> excuse me
[12:01] <cfhowlett> therealjayvi, you want a virtual machine to boot from grub?  I think not.
[12:01] <MagicSpud> but ubuntu is located in the uk as far as I know...
[12:01] <compdoc> cool
[12:01] <MagicSpud> I ll do my best translating it
[12:01] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, but ubuntu users (like in this channel) are global ...
[12:02] <masoudborbor> hi everybdy. there is no right click menu in desktop page of unity1404. even I cannot change my wallpaper. how to fix that
[12:02] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, just use the spanish language channel
[12:02] <MagicSpud> I dont trust them this much
[12:02] <therealjayvi> well im not so concerned with it being a virtual machine just that I want to dual boot ubuntu and xp
[12:02] <cfhowlett> therealjayvi, if it's in virtual, it's not dual booting
[12:03] <therealjayvi> yeah I know which is why I saved the iso but for the life of me I cant figure out how to install it to a seperate partition and have it work properly (which then would involve the want for grub)
[12:03] <cfhowlett> therealjayvi, but if you've enough ram (8gb), I'd suggest you boot a light *buntu (lxde or xfce4) then boot virtualbox + XP
[12:03] <demahum12> I want to change default workspace (that one I'm in when computer starts). I found this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/410419/how-to-set-the-default-workspace However, I don't know how to do these things from the first answer. Any help?
[12:05] <therealjayvi> a while back I managed to dual boot ubuntu alongside windows 8 via a live usb
[12:06] <therealjayvi> so I've been playing around with trying to do a reverse of that and dual boot xp alongside ubuntu
[12:06] <MagicSpud> EN: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8485406/
[12:06] <therealjayvi> but I dont know of any program (like unetbootin in windows) for linux that makes a bootable windows usb from an iso
[12:07] <masoudborbor> hi everybdy. there is no right click menu in desktop page of unity1404. even I cannot change my wallpaper. how to fix that

[12:09] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, it's the latest release: 14.04.1

[12:26] <ticket> cfhowlett: I get this for the md5sum : 119cb63b48c9a18f31f417f09655efbd  ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
[12:27] <ticket> it is different from the md5sum on the site :/
[12:27] <cfhowlett> ticket, don't show it to me ... does it match the hashsum page?
[12:27] <ticket> yup
[12:27] <cfhowlett> ticket, there.  that means = corrupted .iso = corrupted dvd = corrupted install.
[12:27] <masoudborbor> pax2you, I had it too... now I don't
[12:27] <ticket> damn
[12:28] <cfhowlett> ticket, now: torrent the .iso.  direct downloads scramble all the time.  torrents are generally cleaner.
[12:29] <ticket> cfhowlett: oh wait, I was looking for the wrong line, it matches \o/
[12:29] <cfhowlett> ticket, bed sure.  be SURE.  what you have downloaded = the hash sum you are checking.
[12:29] <pax2you> masoudborbor: nautilus-actions can be a solution?
[12:30] <masoudborbor> pax2you, how to do that?
[12:30] <ticket> yes it is
[12:30] <ticket> I hope amd64 stuff works correctly with intel processors, I have an i5
[12:31] <Naphatul>   /var/lib/apt/lists/ is where the mirror cache is stored right?
[12:32] <ticket> cfhowlett: so I burn the dvd, and do a reinstall
[12:36] <Newtboy> hi all
[12:41] <masoudborbor> Igot no right click menu in desktop page of unity1404. even I cannot change my wallpaper. how to fix that؟
[12:42] <pbx> masoudborbor, is right-click working elsewhere?  does it behave differently if you select "show desktop" (from launcher or switcher) first?
[12:43] <masoudborbor> pbx, it works everywhere.
[12:43] <guest-44> masoudborbor: but rightclick works in other programs? maybe you could try deleting the unity config in home dir somewhere?
[12:43] <masoudborbor> guest-44, I will try that
[12:43] <guest-44> (or renaming, in case you need some parts of the config)
[12:44] <masoudborbor> guest-44, what should be te folfer name? .unity?
[12:44] <masoudborbor> guest-44, I dont know where is the config place, and  I got nothing special to save there
[12:45] <guest-44> masoudborbor: i don't know, i don't use unity. try "find ~/|grep unity" in terminal to find it. and only rename the dir in case you need some parts of the config later on
[12:45] <masoudborbor> guest-44, hanks
[12:46] <masoudborbor> thanks*
[12:46] <guest-44> np. did you find it?
[12:46] <masoudborbor> yes
[12:46] <masoudborbor> home/.config/unity3d
[12:46] <phaenon> im experimenting a bit with systemd, vm is booting fine, but systemctl command is not found by which, is there anoter package i should install ?
[12:46] <guest-44> ah ok
[12:47] <guest-44> phantomcircuit: you can use the file search on packages.ubuntu.com or apt-file to find systemctl
[12:47] <masoudborbor> guest-44, guess I need to reboot nut I cant do it now. I will log out and back in later
[12:48] <guest-44> masoudborbor: logout and login should be enough, i think there is no need to reboot
[12:49] <miravalls> hello guys, I'm having a big problem
[12:49] <masoudborbor> lets try
[12:50] <miravalls> a couple of hours ago I installed some 20+ updates with apt-get and now my laptop's wifi connection works weird
[12:51] <phaenon> anyone with systemd experience, i need some help plz.
[12:51] <miravalls> firefox can't reach any web, and apt-get can't reach ubuntu's sources but I can ping google (<IP_ADDRESS>) and access my router by it's ip, so I can't figure out what is going on
[12:51] <naccall> wouldnt you want #systemd for that?
[12:51] <naccall> lol
[12:52] <anunakki> obviously its probably running on an ubuntu machine but either way, they might have a bit more experience :)
[12:52] <guest-44> miravalls: can you ping a website? is there a nameserver defined in /etc/resolc.conf?
[12:52] <miravalls> (I'm writting from a different computer obviusly, cause my laptop can't)
[12:53] <anunakki> miravalls, did you set the default gateway?
[12:53] <miravalls> I can ping any pc in my network
[12:53] <anunakki> route -n
[12:53] <miravalls> my default gateway is my router
[12:54] <anunakki> is it set though, sometimes i find i have to manually set my default gw
[12:54] <masoudborbor> guest-44, didnt work
[12:54] <masoudborbor> no right click on my desktop yet
[12:55] <miravalls> I've set my default gateway manually and it didn't change anything
[12:56] <guest-44> masoudborbor: too bad. if you want, you could try kde, if you don't mind changing to another gui
[12:56] <anunakki> ok, and blatantly stupid question, but you have an ip set for the machine as well right?
[12:56] <masoudborbor> guest-44,  I do have kde and I do like using that. but I wanna learn to fix this unity problem too ;)
[12:56] <miravalls> yes
[12:57] <miravalls> and I've checked it doesn't conflict with any other pc's ips
[12:57] <anunakki> are you using the proper broadcast and netmask?
[12:57] <guest-44> miravalls: have you checked resolv.conf?
[12:57] <anunakki> i assumed by him saying <IP_ADDRESS> he has nameservers set in resolv.conf
[12:58] <miravalls> I tried chaging the name servers, but that didn't work either
[12:58] <guest-44> miravalls: what happens when trying to ping a website? does it get resolved to an ip?
[12:59] <miravalls> the netmask is <IP_ADDRESS> (as always) and I haven't changed the brodcast
[12:59] <Cosssmin> hey guys , can some1 help me to make a bootable usb ? I'm using Lubuntu 14.04.
[12:59] <miravalls> the thing is, apart from installing the updates, I haven't changed any configuration on my pc
[13:00] <miravalls> *laptop
[13:00] <miravalls> it just stopped connecting to the internet after finishing the updates
[13:04] <ticket> cfhowlett: ok, I ran the installer, and in the end it says that it is impossible to setup grub install
[13:05] <ticket> I tried on any disk, and it can't install grub
[13:05] <cfhowlett> ticket, time to start pasting ... no other error message?
[13:06] <cfhowlett> ticket, ubuntu only on this machine? dual boot?
[13:06] <ticket> no more info at this time
[13:06] <ticket> dual boot with windows 7
[13:06] <ticket> but now I can't boot on win 7
[13:06] <ticket> or anything
[13:06] <cfhowlett> ticket, ubuntu tried to write grub and wiped out the windows bootloader.  fixable.
[13:07] <ticket> just the dvd boot works
[13:07] <cfhowlett> ticket, where did you select as the target for grub?
[13:07] <ticket> first, it was auto selected /dev/sda
[13:08] <ticket> I have grub rescue working now
[13:09] <cfhowlett> ticket, from grub rescue you should be able to manually log in
[13:10] <ticket> how?
[13:12] <ticket> cfhowlett: I don't find any ressource on the web for that, how can I login ?
[13:13] <eeee> ticket: what was the error you got earlier
[13:13] <eeee> and how are you installing grub
[13:14] <ticket> eeee; I have the error "no such device: 9c245afd-..."

[13:15] <ticket> eeee : I modified the fstab with UUIDs and I guess this is related
[13:15] <starlight_> If you click on the Ubuntu icon (on Unity) and go to Filter Results > Sources, it brings up things like Facebook, Flickr, Google Drive, etc. I'm wondering how to remove these options?
[13:16] <starlight_> and I mean completely remove them, not just turn them on/off
[13:16] <ticket> eeee :  after installing with the DVD, I had messages about "fatal error, can't install grub on /dev/sda ,
[13:16] <ticket> and an other prompt said that the installation is complete
[13:17] <ticket> so I tried to install grub on any one of my disks, but without success
[13:17] <smithzv> I screwed up my install... is there a way to restore all of the default settings for Unity?  I tried a dpkg-reconfigure but that did nothing as far as I can tell.
[13:17] <ticket> so I choosed the option, no bootloader, install it later manually, and rebooted
[13:17] <eeee> ticket: do you have a liveusb?
[13:18] <MagicSpud> problem:

[15:03] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: yes and still not existing points
[15:03] <eeee> NewAss: see if xserver-xorg-video-ati is there
[15:03] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: type ls /mnt
[15:03] <eeee> what do you see?
[15:03] <MagicSpud> iptable remember my problem? I wanted to assign an old home folder to a new user and make it admin. your solution worked but now I have two admins. I would like to delete the one who instaled the system but...
[15:04] <NewAss> it is
[15:04] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, login to the one you keep, delete the one you don't want
[15:04] <MagicSpud> iptable ... it is working better than the new one.
[15:04] <eeee> NewAss: ok, type sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati
[15:04] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8486389/
[15:04] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, OR downgrade to regular user --- recommended.
[15:04] <tykayn-ubuntu> eee: ls /mnt : bin  games  include  lib  local  lost+found  sbin  share  src
[15:05] <MagicSpud> iptable cfhowlett the old admin lets me change desktop wallpaper and use a wallpaper app called wallch flawlessly
 If I'm using luks and I'm the only user, do I need to encrypt home folder?
[15:06] <NewAss> and.. a lot of packages are installed/deleted
[15:06] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: which mount points does it say dont exist?
[15:06] <MagicSpud> iptable cfhowlett the new admin wont. the program works but I only see the default ubuntu wallpaper..and I thought that if this happens with this app it could happen to anyother so this new admin is a crap compared with the old one...there must be something missing...some group or permission...
[15:06] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: try sudo mount -B /sys /mnt/sys
[15:06] <tykayn-ubuntu> all of them
[15:07] <tykayn-ubuntu> mount: mount point /mnt/sys does not exist
[15:07] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, i recall you stating you did a bunch of strange configurations, right?
[15:07] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett do you think downgrading it would do?¿ would that give more skills to the new admin? for it is kind of handicapped now
[15:07] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett ?
[15:07] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett like what?
[15:07] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, downgrading to desktop users removes all the admin privileges
[15:08] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: i guess these mountpoints are not there because the live cd has another root
[15:08] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: you are in the root of the livecd
[15:09] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett and upgrading an account to admin gives it all the privileges? I just used the users menu under configuration...I mean no shell commands just gui
[15:09] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: type ls -ld /sys /mnt/sys
[15:09] <NewAss> eeee, ..
[15:09] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, exactly.  and the end result should be identical if you used cli
[15:09] <eeee> NewAss: did you type the sudo apt-get install command?
[15:09] <NewAss> yap
[15:09] <tykayn-ubuntu> ls: cannot access /mnt/sys: No such file or directory dr-xr-xr-x 13 root root 0 oct.   3  2014 /sys
[15:09] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett no way then why the old admin works better?
[15:10] <eeee> NewAss: did it install?
[15:10] <c|oneman> hey azizLIGHT did the CD work
[15:10] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett I cant change wallpaper with the new one!
[15:10] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, I've no idea what you did on your box so ... can't say.  I don't mess with groups ...
[15:10] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett how can I trust that admin?
[15:10] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: type cat /mnt/etc/issue
[15:10] <NewAss> some errors was shown, and some packet was not installed.. :-S  can't get page back up.. :-S
[15:10] <azizLIGHT> c|oneman: no, same kernel panic like on the USB for ntpasswd
[15:10] <c|oneman> doh
[15:11] <tykayn-ubuntu> cat: /mnt/etc/issue: No such file or directory
[15:11] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett the only thing I did was to install gnome-session-fallback in the new admin account
[15:11] <eeee> NewAss: hold the shift button and press pageup to scroll up
[15:11] <azizLIGHT> c|oneman: and hirens wouldn't recognize my hdds in the mini xp environment
[15:11] <NewAss> i did.. does not work, eeee
[15:11] <c|oneman> hiren is a mess
[15:11] <azizLIGHT> So I'm just gonna put it to slave and take ownership
[15:11] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: are you sure your ubuntu installation is in /dev/sde3 ?
[15:11] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, compare your 2 admin group memberships with this command:  groups
[15:11] <c|oneman> try Geek squad mri
[15:11] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: i mean /dev/sde4 ?
[15:12] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/see-which-groups-your-linux-user-belongs-to/
[15:12] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett from gnome session fallback I can access CD cairo dock gnome no effects... and even unity but none is letting me change desktop wallpaper
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> c|oneman: how is hiren related to Ubuntu?
[15:12] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett while the old admin still with unity does
[15:12] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[15:12] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: i have /dev/sde3        64G  1,9G   59G   4% /mnt
[15:12] <tykayn-ubuntu> for /mnt
[15:12] <c|oneman> he's Asian
[15:13] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: shouldn't it be /dev/sde4 ?
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> tykayn-ubuntu: what is the output of: ls /mnt
[15:13] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, over my head.  sorry, don't know what to tell you.
[15:13] <tykayn-ubuntu> no idea
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> c|oneman: do you have a support question?
[15:13] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: type sudo umount /dev/sde3
[15:13] <c|oneman> no.
[15:13] <tykayn-ubuntu> k
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> tykayn-ubuntu: you wont know, run the command and pastebin the output
[15:14] <eeee> NewAss: type sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati &> ~/aptlog
[15:14] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: this command? "for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done" ?
[15:14] <eeee> NewAss: when it's done type "less ~/aptlog"
[15:15] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: no, type sudo umount /dev/sde3
[15:15] <NewAss> eeee, i did put inside another command.. same one.. and got few rows...some packages have unmet dependecis... ??
[15:15] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett bingo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8486452/
[15:15] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: ok, it is not mounted
[15:15] <NewAss> brb.. putting comand inside
[15:15] <eeee> NewAss: ok, type sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[15:15] <eeee> NewAss: this will make it easier
[15:15] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett guess wich is the new admin
[15:15] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, lol
[15:16] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: ok, check with "df" that it's not mounted
[15:16] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett should I add tete to all those groups?
[15:16] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: yup, i have nothing from my hard drives in df
[15:16] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett before deleting teto?
[15:16] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sde4 /mnt
[15:17] <cfhowlett> MagicSpud, assuming tete is the user yuou keep, yes
[15:17] <tykayn-ubuntu> k, now it is mounted
[15:17] <eeee> ok
[15:17] <eeee> type cat /mnt/etc/issue
[15:17] <MagicSpud> cfohowlett hence the reason why I cant change desktop wallpaper...and many unknown future whims I will surely have!
[15:17] <tykayn-ubuntu> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[15:17] <eeee> ok
[15:17] <NewAss> eeee.. i  cant find  -- sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati &>   ------->   ~    <------   /aptlog
[15:17] <eeee> great,
[15:18] <tykayn-ubuntu> ah
[15:18] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: what is /dev/sde3 though?
[15:18] <NewAss> that  symbol
[15:18] <eeee> NewAss: type sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[15:18] <MagicSpud> cfhowlett thanks for your patience... I ll let you know whether the fix worked once I test it
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> NewAss: ~ is called a tilde
[15:19] <eeee> NewAss: it's the button next to "1" use shift to access it
[15:20] <tykayn-ubuntu> sde3 is... msftdata
[15:20] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: yeah but it had /bin and /sbin etc.
[15:20] <eeee> it's ext4
[15:20] <eeee> when you installed ubuntu did you use only one partition for everything?
[15:20] <NewAss> eeee.. how  can i  copy-paste-send image?
[15:21] <cfhowlett> !paste | NewAss
[15:21] <eeee> NewAss: type sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati | pastebinit

[15:23] <NewAss> :-(
[15:23] <alibama> I've added a new volume to an aws instance and am using it as the root directory for apache - it is in /etc/fstab, however apache doesn't seem to be starting correctly - note that I'm not seeing it load at all in syslog  - I'm assuming that fstab gets loaded before any apps do?
[15:23] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee:  i have grub on /dev/sde2
[15:23] <tykayn-ubuntu> do i format it?
[15:23] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: no
[15:24] <simpleuser> Hi there. My mic boost works correctly but it is too loud. It always gets quickly at max. It makes my ears explode in my headphones.
[15:24] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: that's a bios-boot partition, it's cause you're using bios (not uefi) with gpt
[15:24] <simpleuser> Is there a way to limit the mic-boost a little bit ?
[15:24] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: it's just a 1mb partition
[15:24] <NewAss> hold on..
[15:24] <tykayn-ubuntu> 38 kib is used on it
[15:24] <alibama> I'm seeing apache2 in my /etc/init.d/ and in my /etc/rc1.d and rc6.d directories.. I assume that means it's running on boot?
[15:24] <tykayn-ubuntu> and grub doesnt lauches
[15:24] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: if you're sure /dev/sde3 is irrelevant, we can continue chrooting
[15:25] <lacrymology> how can I know which of my fonts have japanese glyphs?
[15:25] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: if you want pastebint ls -al /mnt
[15:26] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8486525/
[15:26] <NewAss> can't record image too :-S
[15:27] <NewAss> u know what..
[15:29] <ticket> nop
[15:29] <Talidan> Hey guys, can anyone reccomend me a simple, lightweight reverse proxy server?  All my services have built-in web servers, so i have no need full blown one.  I just need to proxy these services so they're safe to access remotely
[15:29] <yocapybara> anyone got an opinion in general on whether it's best to install tomcat on an ubuntu server through apt or whether it is best just to grab the tarball each time?
[15:30] <NewAss> eeee..  i got some dependeces .. why is linux newb user's VERY unfriendly??
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Talidan: use an ssh tunnel
[15:31] <eeee> NewAss: use the pastebinit command
[15:31] <eeee> NewAss: type sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati | pastebinit
[15:31] <NewAss> cant istall
[15:31] <eeee> NewAss: then paste the link it gives you here
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> yocapybara: I suggest the one from the repos, the packages have been tested in ubuntu and will also be automatically updated
[15:31] <eeee> NewAss: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[15:31] <NewAss> eeee, i did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[15:31] <NewAss> i can?t
[15:31] <eeee> NewAss: ok, where's the paste link then :P
[15:31] <Talidan> would that allow people to access the services via HTTP or would they need to use SSH?
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> !info xserver-xorg-video-ati
[15:31] <NewAss> i can't OPEN ITITITITITITITZ
[15:31] <Talidan> ssh first
[15:32] <yocapybara> ActionParsnip: thanks fair points
[15:32] <NewAss> đ  nm n
[15:32] <NewAss> C,KM,-JK0PULŽĆ
[15:32] <eeee> NewAss: it just gives you a link to paste.ubuntu.com with the results of apt-get
[15:32] <eeee> NewAss: chill
[15:32] <NewAss> IT does not install IT
[15:32] <NewAss> nothinhg
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> Talidan: you would need to setup the tunnel first, then access the page via http to localhost on the port used by the tunnel
[15:32] <NewAss> sorry,,, i smahed on keyboard..
[15:32] <eeee> NewAss: pastebinit is not getting installed?
[15:32] <NewAss> nope
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> NewAss: if you run: sudo apt-get update , do you see hits
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> NewAss: or lots of 404s....
[15:33] <eeee> NewAss: try sudo apt-get install -f
[15:33] <eeee> NewAss: also update as ActionParsnip suggested
[15:33] <john_doe_jr> How do you rsync files but only transfer a certain limit each time?
[15:33] <NewAss> says try apt-get -f intall
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> john_doe_jr: limit in what sense?
[15:34] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: i guess apt-get install grub wont do the job, isntit ?
[15:34] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: 1 sec
[15:34] <Talidan> Right, so the tunnel needs to be setup on both sides?  I can't, for example, set it up on the server side then with no additinoal software access the local http services?
[15:34] <tykayn-ubuntu> k
[15:34] <john_doe_jr> ActionParsnip: well, I want rsync to copy only 5GB of data and then stop
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> tykayn-ubuntu: grub is in the live cd
[15:34] <Talidan> in this instance, i'm assuming the client will have no ssh software or wont know how to do it
[15:34] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: type for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[15:35] <tykayn-ubuntu> k
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Talidan: then https instead of http will help
[15:35] <tykayn-ubuntu> it returned nothing, seem to be good
[15:35] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: ok type sudo chroot /mnt
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> john_doe_jr: have you read the rsync man page?
[15:36] <tykayn-ubuntu> k
[15:36] <tykayn-ubuntu> now i am root
[15:36] <john_doe_jr> ActionParsnip: yes…I see limiting the bandwidth but not the total amount of data transferred..
[15:36] <tykayn-ubuntu> root@ubuntu:/#
[15:36] <NewAss> eeee,  apt-get -f update.. finished
[15:36] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: ok type sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[15:37] <NewAss> if i desaphere.. i falt down.. epilepsy.. :-S
[15:37] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: that's the win7 disk right?
[15:37] <Talidan> alright,thanks
[15:37] <eeee> NewAss: lol
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> john_doe_jr: once you have sync'd once you can use rsync to only update changes, using less data
[15:38] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee:  grub install gives error
[15:38] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: what's the error?
[15:38] <NewAss> eeee.. now what?
[15:38] <eeee> NewAss: try sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati
[15:38] <tykayn-ubuntu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8486603/
[15:38] <NewAss> ok...
[15:38] <NewAss> brb
[15:39] <tykayn-ubuntu> i guess this is not the windows disk
[15:39] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: not so good at french
[15:39] <tykayn-ubuntu> yeah sorry
[15:39] <eeee> i think it's complaining that it's a gpt with no bios-boot partition
[15:39] <eeee> so it's not possible to install or something
[15:40] <tykayn-ubuntu> yes thats it
[15:40] <NewAss> eeee, unable to locate that package.. .:-S
[15:40] <tats> hi, using ubuntu 14.04. at boot time my system hangs on errors "I/O error on device /dev/sdb". this is a secondary hard drive. i would like to just disable it, i removed the mount lines from /etc/fstab but it still hangs on the same errors. how can i prevent this from happening? my primary (boot) drive is fine but my secondary drive's problems prevent me from booting correctly.à
[15:41] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: i dont know if you can easily create a bios-boot partition and get it to work
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> john_doe_jr: you could make a batch in a text file of 5Gb of data, then tell rsync to sync that batch selection
[15:41] <tykayn-ubuntu> i have gparted
[15:41] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: alternatively you could have the bios boot /dev/sde and that would load grub, and maybe you could boot windows from there
[15:41] <tykayn-ubuntu> so i guess i can create a partition
[15:41] <Fishscene> tats: I'm not an expert or anything, but have you looked at your grub settings?
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> tats: soumds like a dying drive. Id replace it asap
[15:41] <tykayn-ubuntu> mh
[15:42] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: do you want to try that?
[15:42] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: would be easier than creating the bios-boot
[15:42] <tats> ActionParsnip: any tips on how to recover my data?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> tats: use your backups. You do make backups right?
[15:42] <john_doe_jr> ActionParsnip: good idea…I wish there was a way to do it just as a command line option though
[15:42] <tykayn-ubuntu> i should know where is windows 7 located
[15:42] <tats> ActionParsnip: I have some but for that drive they might not be up to date
[15:43] <eeee> tykayn-ubuntu: give it a shot, sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sde
[15:43] <NewAss> eeee, ...
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> john_doe_jr: you'll need to make a text file of names in cli, then feed it to rsync
[15:43] <tykayn-ubuntu> eeee: i have windows on /dev/sdb
