[01:04] <harris> when i double click a .docx file how do i make it open in my ms office 2007 word running in wine
[01:04] <holstein> harris: i would just open word in wine and navigate to it
[01:05] <harris> i cant

[01:07] <harris> i dont understand that i am new to linux
[01:08] <holstein> i woud probably just move them over to libreoffice.. or something in google docs
[01:08] <holstein> harris: you can do that, but it will not be easy it will look like that forum post i linked
[01:08] <holstein> harris: its likely the files will just open in libreoffic
[01:09] <holstein> you can set up a webapp kind of thing like main ubuntu would do with google docs
[01:10] <holstein> OR, just explain what is going on, and let them open word and navigate to the file

[06:41] <qasim> hi
[07:23] <WalterN> so I have Xubuntu on my laptop, and the only thing I really dont like is the click and drag without actually clicking
[07:24] <WalterN> (how is that for a problem, compared to the multitude of driver issues with laptops of ages past)
[07:30] <WalterN> not sure what setting I would change
[13:00] <Aknot> Is there a program like kwin for xfce?
[13:01] <koegs> Aknot: xfwm
[13:02] <Aknot> i meant krunner
[13:03] <Aknot> lol
[13:03] <koegs> ALT+F2 should be similar
[13:04] <Aknot> It only finds applications
[13:05] <koegs> what special function do you need?
[13:06] <TheSheep> there is synapse, gnomedo, etc.
[13:06] <Aknot> it needs to find also settings and files
[13:06] <Aknot> and how do i install themes
[13:07] <TheSheep> !themes
[13:07] <TheSheep> ther is a guid on xfce-look
[13:07] <TheSheep> guide
[13:07] <Aknot> ok thanks

[16:25] <arkanabar> Is there a way to change colors of some of the window decorations -- kleanux, for example?

[18:35] <Guest66258> Will Hand Brake work on Xubuntu
[18:35] <arkanabar> if it's in the repos, I would think so.
[18:36] <arkanabar> let me see just what handbrake is...
[18:36] <Guest66258> Video file ripper
[18:38] <Guest66258> How secure is Xubuntu from hacks and viruses
[18:39] <arkanabar> like any OS, if you install them, you get them.
[18:40] <TheSheep> !virus
[18:40] <arkanabar> keep your system up to date, don't fool around with flash or pdf too much, and you're unlikely to get hacked.
[18:41] <arkanabar> At least you don't have the giant gaping hole that is "run ActiveX Objects" that Internet Explorer has...
[18:41] <Guest66258> Thanks for answering my questions
[18:42] <arkanabar> not a problem.  as for handbrake, it's not in the main repos, but I bet if you google "install handbrake ubuntu" you'll find a ppa or something.
[19:46] <sl33p> i got a file on my computer and i need help finding out if its threatening or not
[19:46] <knome> threatening to what?
[19:47] <sl33p> to my computer? tmp/ssh-DgevQKNx2104$ is the directory file agent.2104
[19:48] <Unit193> Nope, that's fine.  I have it too and it's used by ssh agent.
[19:48] <JDude> Hi can someone offer a little help as to why my live usb installation is giving me a "no operating system found" error.
[19:48] <Unit193> Sounds more to me like it's not booting from the USB.
[19:49] <sl33p> no i had it installed on a usb then installed to the harddrive
[19:50] <drc> If I had to make a guess, I'd guess that you placed GRUB somewhere it's not looking.
[19:50] <JDude> I reformat the usb to ms-dos(FAT) use unetbootin to install the 32bit xubunutu.iso, go into the bios and place the usb above the hdd on boot priorities, and when it reads the usb, it says "no operating system found"
[19:51] <JDude> keep in mind, I'm a little new to liinux. I've been on a mac for a while
[19:51] <JDude> but im not using the usb on my mac, i got a new samsung laptop.
[19:52] <JDude> drc: i didn't physically place GRUB anywhere. should I have? I just used unetbootin
[19:53] <drc> JDude: I was talking to sl33p
[19:53] <JDude> drc: oh my bad.
[19:53] <sl33p> drc i dont think i manually installed GRUB
[19:54] <drc> JDude: But in your case, I'd first try reinstalling to the usb...
[19:54] <drc> sl33p: what install option did you choose?
[19:55] <sl33p> installing?
[19:55] <sl33p> like, what do you mean specifically drc
[19:55] <drc> JDude: I've had the same thing happen to me, and re-installing to the usb often helps.
[19:55] <JDude> drc: yeah, I did that like five times with three different linux distros... don't know what's going wrong.
[19:55] <sl33p> drc: i tried to vim/nano this file and i just get errors im not even sure what type of file this agent.2104 is
[19:55] <drc> sl33p: when you installed to the hdd, did you choose 1) replace, along side, 3) something else?
[19:56] <sl33p> along side
[19:56] <sl33p> because i also have windows partition
[19:56] <JDude> anyone running osx 10.8 here? I'm getting weird behavior with unetbootin and am wondering if it is normal
[19:57] <drc> time to walk the dog...

[21:56] <petra89> I installed on my asus EEEpc xubuntu before some weeks but now I would like to back my older xp.
[21:56] <petra89> I have got only usb to use for install.
[21:56] <petra89> I made a speciall install for usb .
[21:57] <knome> you should probably ask ##windows if you need help installing windows
[21:57] <petra89> But something is bad in master boot record...
[21:57] <knome> xubuntu boots though?
[21:59] <neolith> Hello everyone, has anybody encountered an odd video glitch when watching youtube using chrome in which only the video (not the commercial) plays with hundreds of various colors that looks like pixel based "static" (Hard to describe but have screen shots) this occurs no where else on pages that use flash
[21:59] <petra89> I have got only  problem hal.dll error
[22:02] <jhansonxi> neolith:  Google found: http://www.ubuntuvibes.com/2012/07/how-to-fix-rendering-issues-in-google.html
[22:03] <petra89> How can I grub uninstall | or how can I make on first partition  FAT32
[22:03] <petra89> FS
[22:04] <petra89> chfdisk is a good choice?
[22:04] <petra89> cfdisk

[22:05] <petra89> I did this manuall but I have got hal.dll error ....
[22:05] <jhansonxi> petra89: Also http://www.komku.org/2008/11/install-windows-xp-using-usb-flash-disk.html
[22:06] <neolith> jhansonxi thank you I will give that a try... rendering, that's the word I needed!
[22:09] <petra89> Thank you jhansonxi. I used the same
[22:12] <jhansonxi> petra89: If you can boot the XP setup, try a boot repair
[22:13] <petra89> Yes I tried it but not good because I can see only usb partition.
[22:14] <petra89> I tried fixmbr command
[22:14] <petra89> nothing happened
[22:15] <petra89> so I can't see my 160GB harddrive
[22:16] <jhansonxi> petra89: It may need a driver for the IDE/SATA controller.  The XP setup prompts for installing one during setup.
[22:18] <petra89> yes perhaps , but how can I do to start setup.. only error with file: hall.dll.
[22:19] <jhansonxi> The XP setup won't start?
[22:21] <petra89> I start the 1. only text mode this mode start windows xp setup but I see only usb in xp partition table.
[22:22] <petra89> if I try 2. gui setup mode than I come the error message : hall.dll
[22:22] <petra89> than only choice the restart
[22:23] <jhansonxi> petra89: You could try wiping the entire hard drive with a secure drive eraser utility.  That would eliminate Grub and everything else.
[22:24] <neolith> jhansonxi thank you very much, that was the ticket, much obliged!
[22:26] <petra89> yes cuold you give me soem help how can eliminate Grub ? :)
[22:27] <jhansonxi> petra89: The XP fixboot option is the only way I know of to replace the Grub boot loader with the XP bootloader.  If that doesn't work then erasing the entire drive is the only other option I know of.
[22:28] <petra89> Ok thanks a lot . I have got an other idee that I try to install lilo and than try to boot xp
[22:35] <arkanabar> petra89, LILO is infamously difficult to remove from MBR.
[22:39] <j1mc> petra89: i found this:  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Master_Boot_Record#Restoring_a_Windows_boot_record
[22:39] <j1mc> it may be of help
[22:40] <j1mc> see if xubuntu has a program called ms-sys
[22:41] <j1mc> oh, i guess it's not in ubuntu. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ms-sys/+question/28349
[22:47] <petra89> All right I try it big thanks to j1mc . I think it will be good resolution for me.
[22:49] <petra89> have nice day to everybody .... perhaps I will come back later if I had problems... :)))


[18:26] <reisio> draconus: I doubt that was it, but... if you're done with that there's not much point talking about it
[18:26] <reisio> install1: as opposed to?
[18:26] <draconus> reisio i just like to understand what's going on
[18:26] <wilee-nilee> !who > install1
[18:26] <reisio> draconus: :)
[18:27] <ArmoredDragoon> jrib: cool, seems to have worked
[18:27] <install1> ok, was hoping there might be an easy answer-can't layout the entire problem easily in this forum.
[18:28] <reisio> install1: I already gave it :)
[18:29] <reisio> install1: if your only option is 'something else', all you have to do really is tell the installer what to use as a root (/) partition, and what for swap
[18:29] <reisio> install1: you can share a swap partition without any problems
[18:30] <wilee-nilee> install1, If you are going to dualboot I would get acquainted with the something else option, you then can install anything in the right place.
[18:30] <reisio> install1: unless you get into hibernation issues :)
[18:30] <reisio> what you should probably do, though, is use a VM for one :p
[18:30] <reisio> or better yet, just stop using one
[18:30] <reisio> how many OSes do you really need? :)
[18:30] <wilee-nilee> 4

[18:31] <reisio> ratsarot
[18:32] <install1> reisio wilee Using hte something else option also makes an error, can't remember the wording......but it says something is wrong and directs me to correct it via the partitioning tool......
[18:32] <reisio> install1: mmmm if you did some odd manual partitioning in the past, you may have confused it
[18:33] <reisio> install1: but you can also manually partition with gparted, and then just tell the installer which partitions to use
[18:34] <install1> reisio that's what I tried to do-used gparted, but it says something else is needeed when I try to make a second install in the secong partition.
[18:34] <reisio> install1: well you'll have to be more specific, I'm afraid
[18:35] <install1> reisio unfortunately, I can't remember the exact wording of the error.
[18:35] <wilee-nilee> install1, Can you take a screenshot of gparted and imagebin it
[18:35] <install1> reisio yes, my bad, sorry........
[18:37] <microm> where do I find the list of patches ubuntu applies on top of GNU Make?
[18:37] <holstein> !source
[18:37] <install1> reisio I am doing a new install now, will attempt to save a screenshot so others can see my issue. Is it possible for the live cd to do the partitioning and install for the second partition automatically?
[18:38] <Seven_Six_Two> microm: https://launchpad.net/make
[18:42] <microm> Seven_Six_Two: do you know where this info is for linux mint?
[18:42] <holstein> !mint | microm
[18:42] <auronandace> !mint | microm
[18:43] <holstein> microm: could be the same package, but you'd need to ask them to see what, if any changes have been made
[18:53] <draconus> if i can only access my box via rescue (netboot) and i need to take full backups of mysql databases... what do i do? is it enough to copy all files from /var/mysql and put them back after reinstall?
[18:54] <reisio> draconus: you can copy files, but dumping is more better
[18:54] <draconus> reisio i do want to dump but i don't think that i can run mysql while in rescue mode
[18:54] <reisio> yeah you could maybe from a live OS
[18:54] <reisio> but yeah, copying all the data should suffice, obviously
[18:55] <draconus> reisio no choice like that, it's a remote box
[18:55] <reisio> it's stored somewhere, isn't it :)
[18:55] <draconus> reisio yes it is but still...
[18:55] <reisio> just check that you can get the data you want from the data you copy before you get rid of the source of the data you copy
[18:57] <draconus> reisio no choice like that again :)
[18:57] <reisio> hrmm?
[18:57] <draconus> reisio i need to reinstall aka wipe first to install fresh mysql and then try to "import"
[18:57] <draconus> and i can only hope...
[18:57] <yang> how to edit /etc/network/interfaces for open wifi, could anyone paste the lines
[18:58] <reisio> draconus: so why won't it boot, again?
[18:58] <rypervenche> draconus: Just copy over the folder /var/lib/mysql
[19:00] <draconus> reisio hm basically it might boot but i'm not sure because it terribly broke and i had to netboot to see my filesystem at all... all i had there was root mounted as read only
[19:00] <draconus> reisio so not really sure if it will boot now
[19:01] <draconus> reisio all i remember is some grub setup i was going tru while changing packages
[19:01] <reisio> chaning?
[19:01] <reisio> changing*?
[19:01] <draconus> reisio i suspect it had to do with it because e.g. mount wasn't showing mounts, fdisk -l wasn't showing partitions and fsck couldn't find superblock... looked like a toast, while simple reboot into netboot and mount worked fine...
[19:02] <draconus> even testdisk was spitting out 1000s of I/O errors
[19:02] <reisio> I don't think anything to do with grub could do that
[19:02] <draconus> can you imagine such a crap?
[19:02] <reisio> sounds more like hardware dying
[19:02] <reisio> but if it happened at the same moment of some particular software execution...
[19:02] <draconus> i told the colo guy to check/replace the SATA cable
[19:03] <draconus> yes it did
[19:03] <draconus> it was fine for 3 years
[19:03] <draconus> i started messing with software and went to bed, i woke up to the dead box
[19:03] <reisio> well, would have to know specifically what software was doing what at the moment to debug it
[19:04] <draconus> reisio i basically needed to manually put a newer libc6 which caused lots of issues and i managed all that after 2 hours
[19:04] <reisio> mmm
[19:04] <draconus> reisio that was because of newer jemalloc i needed
[19:04] <draconus> long story
[19:04] <reisio> it's weird that it's 2013 and people (hosters, etc.) still don't just provide a redundant rescue system that actually has useful utils
[19:04] <draconus> so i started playing just to put all the crap together
[19:04] <reisio> I mean why not just make the rescue system full featured :p
[19:04] <reisio> it'll save them time & money in the long run
[19:04] <andreia_> hello
[19:05] <reisio> hi andreia_
[19:05] <draconus> reisio well it is quite well featured, it just is a netboot
[19:05] <reisio> draconus: doesn't sound featured enough
[19:05] <draconus> reisio because that's free :)
[19:05] <reisio> heh
[19:05] <draconus> reisio there are better tools but they cost money
[19:05] <reisio> well, you could've setup your own redundancy! :p
[19:05] <draconus> reisio i damn will
[19:06] <draconus> reisio and i will dd the box to another one every week ;)
[19:06] <rypervenche> I can't tell you how nice it is to have a RAID.
[19:06] <reisio> draconus: :p
[19:06] <draconus> rypervenche i can't tell how much it costs to have 5 drives in that colo :)
[19:06] <reisio> rypervenche: not that kind of redundancy
[19:06] <draconus> you*
[19:06] <reisio> actual redundancy :p
[19:06] <reisio> doesn't matter, raid is redundancy for the sake of access, not preservation
[19:06] <reisio> it's not what would've helped you
[19:07] <tannji> Where do I look up current networking settings?  Need to check Hostname and such
[19:07] <rypervenche> reisio: You're talking backups?
[19:07] <draconus> so i had all those backups, nightly, hourly even... sitting on that damn drive ;) talk about safety :)
[19:07] <reisio> rypervenche: no
[19:07] <reisio> rypervenche: though those would've helped him, too
[19:07] <rypervenche> reisio: What do you mean by redundancy then?
[19:07] <reisio> redundant systems
[19:07] <reisio> so if one breaks, he can still get things done
[19:08] <reisio> redundancy
[19:08] <rypervenche> HA?
[19:08] <reisio> no...
[19:08] <rypervenche> That's what I would consider HA.
[19:08] <reisio> it's not HA, it's just basic (un)common sense redundancy
[19:09] <rypervenche> Mkay, so basically a failover.
[19:09] <reisio> HA smacks of RAID! :p
[19:09] <yang> how to edit /etc/network/interfaces for open wifi, could anyone paste the lines
[19:09] <reisio> failover works
[19:09] <reisio> I'm just going to call it redundancy
[19:09] <rypervenche> reisio: Yay! We sort of agree on a word!
[19:09] <reisio> weee
[19:09] <reisio> one small step
[19:09] <reisio> imagine what else we could agree on
[19:09] <reisio> what do you think of the letter 'a'?
[19:10] <rypervenche> O_o whoa whoa whoa, don't get carried away man...
[19:10] <reisio> I think it's a bit pretentious
[19:10] <reisio> :p

[19:19] <Luke___> but i dont have the repository :S
[19:19] <wilee-nilee> Luke___, Sounds like a not canonical release am I right?
[19:19] <Seven_Six_Two> Luke___: you will have to edit your /etc/apt/sources.list to include all of the standard repos.
[19:19] <tannji> Seven_Six_Two,   thanks man
[19:19] <yang> how to edit /etc/network/interfaces for open wifi, could anyone paste the lines
[19:20] <yang> i have wireless-essid set
[19:20] <Seven_Six_Two> yang: what do you mean, "for open wifi"
[19:20] <gregor3005> hi, i print the first time with abs, should i higher the heatbed temperature? i does not stick with 65°C
[19:20] <Luke___> yeah its from 'bitnami
[19:20] <sliddjur> When I create a<EMAIL_ADDRESS>it creates sftp and not scp connection?
[19:20] <sliddjur> in nautilus
[19:20] <yang> seven open wifi without encryption key
[19:21] <Seven_Six_Two> yang: do you not have a gui?
[19:21] <wilee-nilee> Luke___, 3rd party Os's are not supported, however this is a source generator. http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[19:21] <andreia_> how to instll it from usb?
[19:21] <tannji> Seven_Six_Two, "tannji-ubuntu" would be my host name?
[19:22] <Seven_Six_Two> tannji: that's it
[19:22] <wilee-nilee> Luke___, It may be that your source list has to tie to where you got the image, it would help if you gave actual details.
[19:22] <tannji> lol, k...  not what I was expecting, but I should know better by now
[19:22] <gregor3005> ah i found it in the wiki -> 110°C
[19:23] <Luke___> Its this: http://bitnami.com/stack/openerp/virtual-machine
[19:23] <andreia_> the sequence to install from usb please
[19:23] <Luke___> unfortunately I know open ERP through and through.. but not linux :S
[19:23] <IdleOne> !usb
[19:23] <yang> seven
[19:23] <yang> any idea
[19:24] <reisio> erp, heh
[19:24] <Seven_Six_Two> http://www.ghacks.net/2009/04/14/connect-to-a-wireless-network-via-command-line/
[19:24] <andreia_> last time I tried to install from usb it asked for user and password after install, and I dont know what it was
[19:24] <reisio> andreia_: you probably set it during installation
[19:25] <wilee-nilee> Luke___, That install is not supported here, if you want a minimal you should use the netload mini, and install what you want, what you have is not supported here.
[19:25] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: it's set by you during install
[19:25] <Luke___> ok thanks :)
[19:25] <reisio> andreia_: you can fix that from the install media, though
[19:25] <andreia_> I will try again
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> andreia_: press CTRL+ALT+F1 and run: passwd ubuntu ,set the pass and press CTRL+ALT+F7 and log in
[19:25] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: after install to the usb or install to the pc?
[19:26] <reisio> andreia_: have you already eliminated the install you can't log into?
[19:26] <andreia_> after install to the usb
[19:26] <andreia_> yes
[19:26] <Seven_Six_Two> I don't think there's a password set for the live. just hit enter
[19:27] <andreia_> I got it, thanks
[19:28] <gregor3005> did anybody print this squirrel? http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:102951
[19:28] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: btw the real install process is much different from putting it on the usb key
[19:28] <gregor3005> it has many problems and the generated gcode is not the squirrel
[19:28] <andreia_> after install I will connect the internet cable and how to set the net card
[19:29] <andreia_> the ip address and gateway
[19:29] <andreia_> man what?
[19:29] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: connect the internet cable before the install
[19:29] <andreia_> ok
[19:29] <wilee-nilee> gregor3005, Not a ubuntu issue or a support problem.
[19:29] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: what's at the other end of that cable?
[19:30] <andreia_> the Internet
[19:30] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: sure, I'm at the other end, but not literally. What does the cable plug in to?
[19:30] <fatNERD> need help with binding ipv6 to network device. thnx
[19:30] <andreia_> router
[19:31] <docvell> I have a question about VLC quitting on me when I play a video
[19:31] <Seven_Six_Two> andreia_: yeah, just plug in before the install, and the computer will detect the router's dhcp server
[19:31] <docvell> it works perfectly fine for mp3's
[19:31] <andreia_> during install of slackware the config of the net was easy
[19:31] <wilee-nilee> Guest94887, can you use a nick guest is not tab complete friendly.
[19:31] <andreia_> I got it
[19:34] <docvell> PROBLEM: I used to use VLC to play all my media files as it was a great program to use.  Now I can't view videos on it without it quitting on me right before the video plays.  I tried to uninstall it and reinstall it, but no luck...I even tried the settings and still no luck.  I would like permission to paste my error message I get when I tried it from the command line.
[19:34] <IdleOne> !paste
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> docvell: do other apps work ok?
[19:37] <fatNERD> docvell: open up the terminal and type 'vlc <video file> , it will show the error msg of to why it wouldnt play
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> docvell: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[19:38] <docvell> ok hold on a sec
[19:39] <docvell> Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[19:39] <docvell>  that's what I get for "cat /etc/issue" now going to do the 'vlc <video file>'

[19:55] <Kitt3n> !gq
[19:56] <Kitt3n> Cool.
[20:00] <reboot> hi
[20:01] <Vec_> hai
[20:01] <reboot> why  rhythmbox developers are so slow
[20:01] <reisio> reboot: some reason they should be faster?
[20:01] <reboot> i have one bug in a 2 years
[20:01] <wilee-nilee> reboot, Ask them.
[20:01] <reboot> =))
[20:01] <reboot> yeah
[20:01] <reboot> right decision
[20:02] <Kitt3n> reboot, perhaps they don't know how to fix this "bug"? :)
[20:02] <wilee-nilee> !enter > reboot
[20:02] <reisio> ...
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> reboot: is the bug reported?
[20:05] <reboot> Kitt3n, it would be sad if it's true )
[20:05] <reboot> ActionParsnip, i had always send reports
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> reboot: good. that helps
[20:06] <reboot> sarcasm? =)
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> reboot: no, letting the guys know when things arent right is good
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> reboot: why would it be otherwise?
[20:06] <Kitt3n> Yup, that's why Windows and Mac suck :D
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: you've never logged a bug report to microsoft?
[20:07] <Kitt3n> Except they made by big greedy companies whom don't care for their users.
[20:08]  * wilee-nilee loves blind rhetoric, lol
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: office365 also has an amazong community. I assume you are aware of that too
[20:09] <Kitt3n> I stopped using Windows when I saw how horrible Windows 8 is.
[20:09] <reboot> when you are trying to subscribe on a new podcasts from search tab, program can crash and destroy all session buffer (with all subscribed podcasts)
[20:10] <Sanjuro> hey guys, having a DNS issue.
[20:10] <reboot> sorry for english...
[20:10] <reboot> very sad issue)
[20:10] <Sanjuro> I can ping public addresses by IP but not hostname
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: i support microsoft products at at work as well as debian and solaris. we work very closely with microsoft to get stuff done
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> sanjuro: what translates names to ip addresses?
[20:10] <Kitt3n> ^
[20:11] <Sanjuro> well route -n shows <IP_ADDRESS> pointing at my router
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> sanjuro: you will need nameservers defining
[20:11] <Kitt3n> Sanjuro, It's most likely your ISPs DNS server that has failed
[20:11] <Sanjuro> nah
[20:11] <Sanjuro> I can ping fine from other lan devices out
[20:11] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, I don't have that, and my internet works
[20:11] <Sanjuro> using same router
[20:11] <reboot> ActionParsnip, this is not working) i've sending 2 years this report with no result
[20:11] <Sanjuro> I have my router specified as a nameserver in resolv.conf
[20:11] <Kitt3n> Sanjuro, tried rebooting?
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> sanjuro: echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf
[20:12] <Sanjuro> lol what the heck Acce
[20:12] <Sanjuro> err ActionParsnip
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: try multinationally located sites running realtime apps :-)
[20:12] <Sanjuro> I had that in there before but it wasnt working so I removed it and just left my routers IP
[20:12] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, like?
[20:12] <Sanjuro> that worked though thanks.
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> sanjuro: you are failing dns so we set the dns and now stuff works. get fully updated and see if it is stil bad. if not we can make it stick
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: what do you mean? the question is meaningless
[20:13] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, err, it's the search domains I didn't fill out. durr
[20:14] <Sanjuro> okay, doing an update/upgrade
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: search domain is optional
[20:14] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, no idea what it means or does, and I don't care ;p
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: then why say it?
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: its a basic part of dns.....
[20:15] <mattviapc> Hi
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> hi mattviapc: howdy
[20:16] <mattviapc> Ive got 2 hard drives (1 with windows, another just storing some files and programs of windows). I was wondering if I go into ubuntu and create a partition on the hard drive storing my windows file, will it be affected>
[20:17] <[Gentoo]> mattviapc: it wont
[20:17] <[Gentoo]> if you're careful
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> mattvaipc: you can resize ntfs in windows if you want. your data backups will cover any issues
[20:18] <reisio> mattviapc: what version of windows?
[20:18] <mattviapc> Its a 250gb drive, with 40gb being used and I partition it to be 150gb/100gb I should be good?
[20:18] <mattviapc> reisio 7
[20:18] <reisio> 7 should be defragged already, but you might double check
[20:18] <Sanjuro> ActionParsnip, update/upgrade, you suggest reboot see if it sticks?
[20:19] <mattviapc> what do you mean?
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> sanjuro: yes. if not we can make it permanent
[20:19] <[Gentoo]> mattviapc: if you partition with gparted it will move any data anyway
[20:19] <[Gentoo]> if its spewed all over the place
[20:20] <mattviapc> reisio I just want to be sure if I shrink my HD in ubuntu that it wont affect my windows files
[20:20] <Vec_> Can anyone check if they get anything at www.vecbox.com ?
[20:20] <reisio> mattviapc: as ActionParsnip mentioned, only having a backup will guarantee you can have your files exactly as they were
[20:20] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: no
[20:20] <reisio> mattviapc: in general, though, resizing a Windows FS is not problematic
[20:20] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Ok thanks
[20:20] <mattviapc> reisio thanks for the help
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> vec_: seems like a hung webserver
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> vec_: could try wget on the url
[20:21] <Vec_> ActionParsnip: I just bought the domain and pointed it to my IP. There is no webserver setup yet, but it should give you my router login.
[20:22] <Vec_> I have no clue what im doing and im thinking ill deal with it tomorrow :p
[20:22] <maddprof> Hi Everyone, I'm working on getting a VM of Ubuntu 13.04 i386 running for a specific purpose that requires me to map a network drive. I've tried running the command sudo mount -t cifs //FREENAS /home/maddprof/FreeNAS -o username=***,password=***,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777
[20:22] <theadmin> Vec_: I can ping it at least, but it's unlikely to give you a router login page, those are normally restricted to LAN.
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> vec_: i dont suggest allowing that for security reasond
[20:22] <maddprof> and I keep getting "mount error(115): Operation now in progress"
[20:22] <holstein> Vec_: dont have it point to your router.. dont have your router configurable from the internet
[20:22] <Vec_> theadmin: Ok, it gives ME the router login, i wondered why the heck no1 else did, but that explains.
[20:22] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: that ip has nothing
[20:22] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: but its pingable
[20:22] <Vec_> holstein: No shit, that was on my todolist when im not drunk + tomorrow^^
[20:23] <Sanjuro> seems to have stuck ActionParsnip, much appreciated.
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> ec_: because youvare inside so it is permitted
[20:23] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: So i guess it hits the router and then stops cus i have not forwarded port 80 to the server, sounds like a reasonable guess rite?
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> sanjuro: if you have dns issues, switch dns server to test
[20:23] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: yeah nothings open on it
[20:23] <Vec_> ActionParsnip: I assumed it would not understand that im on the LAN since im using the external IP
[20:23] <Vec_> Today i learned i guess :)
[20:25] <Vec_> So i just setup this awsome home server with fileserving/printersharing and scheduled backups. But i got so hungry for learning linux that i kinda want to expand it to be a webserver/ftp smth, but im sortoff worried about security when i install those kind of services. i kinda feel like i should just keep it off the net, considering it keeps my parents pictures and files and whatnot
[20:25] <maddprof> Can anyone assist me with why this will not mount?
[20:25] <holstein> Vec_: dont use ftp
[20:25] <Vec_> holstein: Why suckh a blanket statement
[20:26] <Vec_> such*
[20:26] <wilee-nilee> Vec_, Always backup what can't be lost.
[20:26] <holstein> Vec_: you *should* be worried about security.. i would try the turnkeylinux appliances in VM.. virtualbox..
[20:26] <Vec_> holstein: If i translate your above-my-competance speech, you mean to "burry" the webserver/ftp stuff in a VM?
[20:27] <holstein> Vec_: no.. i mean, try it first.. just it local. hack it yourself.. see what works, and what doenst in VM
[20:27] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: that would stop an exploit or hack / whatever compromising your proper os but not the photos
[20:27] <wilee-nilee> Vec_, Nice projection, you a mind reader.
[20:27] <Vec_> wilee-nilee: Yeah.. its not really sufficient what i have atm because its all on one server, even tho on multiple harddrives so yeah
[20:28] <Vec_> wilee-nilee: My sarcasm detector is broken, wont be repaired for tomorrow so plz :p
[20:28] <holstein> Vec_: if there is not a reason to put it out in teh public, dont.. dont have things open that dont need to be.. such as your router config page..
[20:29] <[Gentoo]> Arse_: nice name
[20:29] <Arse_> Thank you very much, [Gentoo]
[20:29] <Arse_> I like yours
[20:29] <Arse_> and I hope it wont get me banned here :P
[20:30] <[Gentoo]> its not too explicit :)
[20:30] <Vec_> So, basically you guys are telling me to not use my home server which has "important" files on it for webserving/ftp aswell? Even if i do it "properly" as in keeping the public stuff in a VM or whatever
[20:30] <well0ne> Hello.
[20:30] <Vec_> Hi.
[20:30] <wilee-nilee>  A real tell in cognitive develop though
[20:30] <Vec_> Lol
[20:30] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: basically whats the point putting it public if youre only gona use it fomr home
[20:31] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: putting it public means people can try to mess with it
[20:31] <well0ne> I'm using the developement edition of 13.10 .   at some point the power-indicator was gone and i can not reactivate it,  dconf-editor dont work, and other options too
[20:31] <[Gentoo]> so its always a security risk
[20:31] <well0ne> have anyone some advice?
[20:31] <reboot> well0ne, use terminal =)
[20:31] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Because then i can use the server as my personal upload space when abroad and whatnot, and also learn linux/apacha while setting up some random webpage to host java applets im programming
[20:31] <well0ne> lol reboot, seriously
[20:31] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Yeah..
[20:31] <well0ne> i want to resolv the problem
[20:32] <well0ne> not a workaround :P
[20:32] <well0ne> solve*
[20:32] <wilee-nilee> !13.10 ? well0ne
[20:32] <well0ne> yes
[20:32] <wilee-nilee> !13.10 > well0ne
[20:32] <Kitt3n> well0ne, not a smart idea to use 13.10 yet, or ever
[20:32] <saiarcot895> well0ne: you might want to try the #ubuntu+1 channel
[20:32] <maddprof> Hi Everyone, I'm working on getting a VM of Ubuntu 13.04 i386 running for a specific purpose that requires me to map a network drive. I've tried running the command sudo mount -t cifs //FREENAS /home/maddprof/FreeNAS -o username=***,password=***,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777
[20:32] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: just use a good password and keep it updated, thats a good practice
[20:32] <maddprof> and I keep getting "mount error(115): Operation now in progress"
[20:32] <well0ne> well i'm already using it ...
[20:33] <chaotix> Hello, and happy July 4th to those of you in the States.  I need some help theme-wise.  I have tried out a few "Ambiance Blue" themes, but with each of them, when maximized, the window buttons on the top left of the panel are left orange and not blue, even though when I look into the theme's Unity folder, it all looks okay...  Can someone help me, please?  Much thanks, in advance!
[20:33] <holstein> Vec_: you can learn about all of those on your local network, or in virtualbox
[20:33] <wilee-nilee> 13.10 is not a matter of any discussion here it is in #ubuntu+1
[20:33] <well0ne> thats mindfuck ... the  power indicator is installed but now shown -.-
[20:33] <Vec_> holstein: 100% true, but then i cant randomly push files to the server from the interwebz or host my javaapplets to impress my tons of friends ._.
[20:33] <Vec_> So you know, temptation
[20:34] <holstein> !language | well0ne
[20:34] <reboot> ubuntu stable based on unstable debian. now you can imagine ubuntu unstable version.  so it's right advice to not use 13.10
[20:34] <Vec_> But yeah, i should buy a seperate box  and use that for webderps and ftp
[20:34] <Sanjuro> im out, thanks for the assistance and quick response.
[20:34] <holstein> Vec_: you dont want ftp running in the public.. most use ssh, and secure the system
[20:34] <chaotix> Could it be something missing in the /GTK 3.0/Assets folder?
[20:35] <reboot> well0ne, without logs it's useless information
[20:35] <Vec_> holstein: Ok. I dont have the knowledge to dispute what your saying so ill go ahead and assume file transfers over SSH is the superior solution.
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> vec_: not ftp. use sftp.
[20:35] <well0ne> well there is no log
[20:35] <well0ne> what should i post
[20:35] <well0ne> it just dont appear
[20:36] <holstein> well0ne: are you using 13.10?
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> vec: sftp uses security. you will get a sftp server when you install openssh-server
[20:36] <well0ne> hell yeah...
[20:36] <holstein> !13.10 | well0ne
[20:36] <well0ne> lol, bots?
[20:36] <ghostconn> how would i install a software center in fedora 19
[20:36] <holstein> well0ne: and, please watch the language. thanks
[20:36] <Vec_> ActionParsnip: Ok. openSSH is well installed and working, im even using the pub/priv keys
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> well0ne: saves having to type a lot to people too lazy to read the channel topic
[20:37] <[Gentoo]> ghostconn: who knows
[20:37] <ghostconn> lol
[20:37] <chaotix> Hello.  I am using Ubuntu 13.04 Unity.  I need some help theme-wise.  I have tried out a few "Ambiance Blue" themes, but with each of them, when maximized, the window buttons on the top left of the panel are left orange and not blue, even though when I look into the theme's Unity folder, it all looks okay...  Can someone help me, please?  Much thanks, in advance!
[20:37] <holstein> well0ne: as the link i and wilee-nilee gave.. use #ubuntu+1 for 13.10 ..its not out yet, and not officially supported here
[20:37] <[Gentoo]> ghostconn: cli is so much more robust
[20:37] <Vec_> But im thinking i should just not have internettaccess to this homeserver considering what it does which is host my parents files/pics whtever for serving and backup.
[20:37] <[Gentoo]> and quicker
[20:37] <well0ne> alright, thanks !
[20:38] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: i dont get it you said you wanted it public
[20:38] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: if you dont open the port, it will be lan only anyway
[20:38] <[Gentoo]> regardless of the programs config
[20:38] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Yes i want to, but im pretty sure you guys just persuaded me not too
[20:38] <trism> chaotix: did you log out/back in between switching themes? the window buttons in the top left only refresh when you do that
[20:38] <Vec_> to*
[20:38] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: no not at all
[20:39] <[Gentoo]> depends how you want to access the files
[20:39] <chaotix> trism, i will try that...  thanks so much@
[20:39] <chaotix> !
[20:39] <[Gentoo]> in a web browser, through a terminal etc
[20:39] <bluewolf>  Hi, How compatible is a Samsung Series 7 (NP700Z5A-S04AU) with Linux Ubuntu 13.04/Mint 14 Nadia Cinnamon and it's AMD Radeon HD 6750M Graphic Card?
[20:40] <[Gentoo]> bluewolf: what has the gpu got to do with a phone?
[20:40] <chaotix> trism ...Hopefully i wont brb.  Thank You!!!
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> bluewolf: for mint youd have to ask the mint guys
[20:40] <[Gentoo]> bluewolf: ah, i guess its not a phone lol
[20:40] <nanvou> hello, does anyone know of a tool to recover corrupted 7z ?
[20:40] <bluewolf> [Gentoo]: Your point? A simple answer :)
[20:41] <Kitt3n> nanvou, nope, only .rar
[20:41] <honey> hello
[20:41] <Kitt3n> bluewolf, AMD is not a problem :)
[20:41] <Obi-Wan-Ken00bi> hi everybody! I've been thinking a lot about security lately, and been searching the web for settings and software to secure my laptop both for hackers and also to try to minimize what google, facebook, etc can collect about my behaviour. And to make it difficult i want to minimize the effect this have on my computer/internet experience. Suggestions anyone?
[20:41] <Kitt3n> bluewolf, perhaps google your computer + "ubuntu 13.04"? :)
[20:41] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: The problem is, i'm not in a position to determine wether or not its safe to run a webserver on this box for example. Obviously im above average (of the human population) in understanding security at the most basic levels. But i have no clue wether or not a slightly missconfigured LAMP server could compromise the entire system including the backup of files stored on a seperate disk
[20:41] <Vec_> from said LAMP server with restrictive permissions. Therefore i feel uncertain..
[20:41] <bluewolf> ActionParsnip: Long time, is it ok for ubuntu?
[20:42] <holstein> Obi-Wan-Ken00bi: other than not using computers, you just have to find a balance of security and convinience.. doing drastic measures can be blocked by those services you link
[20:42] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: theres mainly 2 points for security - exploits (keep your system updated / harden it tp prevent) and brite force password hacking
[20:42] <bluewolf> Kitt3n: Is the Graphic card a common one and how would the rest of the hardware be?
[20:42] <[Gentoo]> so you should always choose a good password
[20:42] <mike1776> Thanks, trism, it worked like a charm!!!
[20:42] <holstein> Obi-Wan-Ken00bi: i would say, if you dont use facebook, dont use it.. then there is no risk.. otherwise, you agree to the terms you agree to
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> bluewolf: what cpu does it have?
[20:42] <Kitt3n> bluewolf, radeon HD cards in general should work fine with Ubuntu.
[20:42] <[Gentoo]> things like ftp/ssh will get atatcked loads
[20:42] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: That sounds like kindergarden, i mean.. If that is most of the risk then there hardly is a problem o.O
[20:43] <[Gentoo]> with password hacks
[20:43] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: exactly
[20:43] <[Gentoo]> just keep it updated to be on the safe side
[20:43] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Yeah i read some articles about that, which is why i stttled with keys and non-default port
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> [gentoo]: i expect the same but i get none....
[20:43] <mike1776> I really do LOVE THIS LINUX COMMUNITY so much!  It trumps any proprietary tech support any day!
[20:43] <[Gentoo]> and choose a good pass and youll be ok
[20:43] <mike1776> Bye everyone!
[20:43] <Vec_> mike1776 :D<3
[20:43] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: if its ssh you can use a key and pass if you're paranoid
[20:43] <holstein> mike1776: cheers
[20:43] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Yeah i do ^^
[20:44] <bluewolf> ActionParsnip: Core i7, 8GB Ram - http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/laptops/samsung-series-7-700z5a-review-50004913/
[20:44] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: youd have not much to worry about there
[20:44] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Bear with me here.. The risk i see that could compromise my files would be root access..
[20:44] <Kitt3n> bluewolf, intel core i7 is compatible with Ubuntu 13.04 I have one, myself.
[20:44] <Obi-Wan-Ken00bi> i hardly use Facebook, but its difficult to get around google.
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> bluewolf: which i7 exactly do you have. they range quite a lot...
[20:45] <gordonjcp> Vec_: running a web server that serves static files is pretty safe
[20:45] <holstein> Obi-Wan-Ken00bi: those are issues independent of *any* opererating system.. most folks will be fine using ubuntu as it ships.. you might want a firewall
[20:45] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: the password to whatever program is hosting your files will.. give them access to them lol
[20:45] <holstein> !firewall | Obi-Wan-Ken00bi
[20:45] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: But if there are random risks with hosting a webpage from the same server that keeps important files stored, then i do not know of those. I started with linux aprox. a week ago, so i cant say im confident in how everything works.  Like it should...
[20:46] <bluewolf> ActionParsnip: I assume 1st generation i7?
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> bluewolf: if the CPU has ian inbuild GPU (sand/ivy bridhe) then you may have issues
[20:47] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, what issues?
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: high temps, cpu fan running all the time etc
[20:47] <Vec_> Ok, guys tell me: What inherent risks do you see with hosting a webserver? I dont care at all about the available content on the webserver. What i do care about is the content on a diffrent disk, not connected whatsoever with the files served by the webserver.
[20:47] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: if you're interested in security and new to linux just research it as you go
[20:47] <gordonjcp> Vec_: if you have some "clever" stuff you need to be a bit careful, like not having some php code that reads files from unchecked input
[20:48] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, uh oh.
[20:48] <holstein> Vec_: many risks
[20:48] <gordonjcp> Vec_: I run about a dozen webservers.  I don't take any particular precautions to secure them.  Come at me, bitch.
[20:48] <Vec_> holstein: How so, please explain concretly if your able to bare with me
[20:48] <Vec_> gordonjcp :D
[20:48] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, is it easy to fix?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> vec_: if the system gets compromised an intruder can mount other partitions and even read stored credentials if you cache them on the same pc
[20:49] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: if you run the web server in a vm, its isolated from your main os ie no one can mount / read other files nomatter if they have root access or not
[20:49] <gordonjcp> Vec_: there is *always* a risk that someone will find a way to compromise your system
[20:49] <holstein> Vec_: you would have to ask a specific question.. "i am hosting x, how can x be compromised"
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: no idea. i buy single gpu systems and avoid the whole mess.
[20:49] <Vec_> ActionParsnip: What do you mean with "system comp", im assuming root accs? But how would anyone get root accs through a webserver hositng a static page with some random stuff on it?
[20:49] <gordonjcp> Vec_: Wordpress has in the past been described as "a rootkit that has a handy blog engine attached"
[20:49] <gordonjcp> Vec_: it's a lot better these days
[20:49] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Would not that make it 101% secure? in relation to the webserver
[20:49] <holstein> Vec_: root access is just one "bad" thing
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> ver_: any access, they will probably be able to work their way up
[20:50] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, meh. I see.
[20:50] <gordonjcp> Vec_: what is a far bigger problem is stuff like SQL injection
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: shop smart. shop S-mart
[20:50] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: no because the web server itself could possible still be hacked, a vm just reduced damage
[20:50] <gordonjcp> Vec_: but in general, don't worry about it, fire up a server and have at it
[20:50] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Im assuming here i dont care about the webserver, at all. Only the seperate files on a diffrent harddisk also on the system.
[20:50] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: a bit like apparmor, rbac things like that can limit access
[20:50] <[Gentoo]> a vm is more powerful
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: i dont buy what is cheap or new. i buy what i know will work with zero effort and ALL my hardware works out of the box
[20:51] <[Gentoo]> in a different way
[20:51] <Kitt3n> ActionParsnip, my computer DOES work out of the box :P
[20:53] <Vec_> Well i guess we can conclude that as long as i do the basic (nessescary) security like good passwords, nondefault ports, sshkeys ect and good permissions, it should be ok to have some ok configured webservices running on my homeserver that also stores backed up files thats "important".
[20:53] <[Gentoo]> yeah
[20:53] <Vec_> Considering that i really doubt someone would spesifically target my server
[20:53] <holstein> lol
[20:53] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: and keep it updated
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> kitt3n: mone too. vrry on purpose. its from when linux wasnt such a big thing do support easnt so forthcoming from providers
[20:53] <Vec_> holstein: Plz, im slightly intoxicated and 100% newbie ^^
[20:53] <[Gentoo]> good password + updated system = secure
[20:54] <tking> hello,  please how can i make my audio sound clear, it cracks like some low quality speaker... but when on windows its a lovely output
[20:54] <holstein> Vec_: just start using them.. if you are concerned, run them local or virtualized and get some experience
[20:54] <[Gentoo]> if you're paranoid you could harden some stuff too, could say its overkill but you never know
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> !sound | tking
[20:54] <[Gentoo]> tking: some sound cards need the volume lowered to something like 70%
[20:55] <holstein> tking: it might not ever work any better.. you can always ask who ever made that windows driver you like to make you a linux one. otherwise, you can try applying upgrades and reading the !sound wiki
[20:55] <[Gentoo]> tking: ive never had that with my pc but the old one downstairs needs it to get rid of crackling (reducing pcm volume)_
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> [gento] never undersyoss 100% in alsa. sounds bad
[20:55] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: Ill do a monthly backup on a external harddrive in addition to the backup the server performs, then the server can burn down for all intents and purposes in regards to keep the files safe, so i guess that actually solves everything. Considering the main goal of this is learning linux and having boatloads of fun ^^
[20:56] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: ok
[20:56] <Vec_> >..<
[20:56] <[Gentoo]> ActionParsnip: what do you mean
[20:56] <[Gentoo]> undersyoss
[20:56] <holstein> backup doesnt equal secure.. you can backup a security risk
[20:56] <[Gentoo]> understood?
[20:56] <Vec_> holstein: You guys
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> [gentoo{: levels at full in alsamixer
[20:56] <[Gentoo]> ActionParsnip: i keep mine at 100%
[20:56] <Vec_> holstein: cant argue tho as "you guys"(tm) are always technically correct
[20:56] <[Gentoo]> some cards sound bad tho
[20:57] <holstein> Vec_: im just being clear.. you are talking about 2 different things.. you can backup a security risk.. and reimplement it
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> not heard one sound bad personally
[20:57] <anathema_> hi i want to ask how to check my battery status because sometimes ubuntu shows that battery is not charged but it's full charged. If I remove it and to put it back it's ok
[20:57] <holstein> Vec_: a great and easy place to learn about systems is virtualized..
[20:57] <Vec_> holstein: I mean, as long as the parents files survives, its all good.
[20:57] <[Gentoo]> Vec_: depends if you care someone else had access to it
[20:58] <Vec_> holstein: Im hungry to learn about VM-stuff after ive understood abit more of the basics of how linux works
[20:58] <[Gentoo]> not if its gone or not
[20:58] <[Gentoo]> backups are great
[20:58] <holstein> Vec_: you have not asked *anything* basic
[20:58] <[Gentoo]> but i wouldfnt want a randomer have pics of my family
[20:58] <Vec_> holstein: You just confused me ^^
[20:58] <[Gentoo]> not saying its likely to happen
[20:58] <[Gentoo]> but not the right mindset to have
[20:59] <Vec_> [Gentoo]: tru, which is why i should REALLY just buy box nr.2
[20:59] <Vec_> and keep box nr 1 off the internet
[20:59] <[Gentoo]> which would
[20:59] <[Gentoo]> not let you have access to it online
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> [hentoo]: they can be found on facrnook.... :-)
[20:59] <[Gentoo]> which you want
[20:59] <Vec_> yap, but i would to box2 :p
[20:59] <[Gentoo]> ActionParsnip: lol yeag
[20:59] <holstein> if can be on your local lan.. just not open to the outside world
[20:59] <Vec_> primary function of the homeserver now is simply backing up parents files and share printers so
[20:59] <holstein> it*
[20:59] <Vec_> holstein yeah
[20:59] <[Gentoo]> im one of those whos never had fb
[20:59] <Vec_> m2 +1
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> lefthand tablet typing plus veg lasagn equals poor typing
[21:00] <markovh> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=saucy&section=all&arch=any&keywords=linux-image-3&searchon=names what's up with the result from this?
[21:00] <Vec_> ActionParsnip: Now you cant prove that
[21:00] <Vec_> ActionParsnip: Wait, i retract that statement
[21:00] <OerHeks> !13.10 | markovh
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> vec_: ;-)
[21:00] <wilee-nilee> ActionParsnip, typing with your hands and mouth full, lol.
[21:01] <markovh> OerHeks: ? as in there's no work even in development stage?
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> wilee-nilee: oh man
[21:01] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[21:01] <Vec_> Beer bottle contents compromised and rm -r'd, good thing i have a frige full of redundancy
[21:01] <OerHeks> markovh, #ubuntu+1 is the place to be, for development 13.10
[21:01]  * Vec_ brbs
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> wilee-nilee: sauce all over my mouth
[21:01] <wilee-nilee> ActionParsnip, Thats when it is good. ;)
[21:01] <markovh> ah i just browsed the list of packages, it's empty. ok fair enough
[21:02] <wilee-nilee> markovh, Not filled till release
[21:05] <barrett> how is it that fsck can run on my 8tb raid file system and report "clean" in under 1 second?
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> barrett: is it unmounted?
[21:06] <barrett> yes
[21:06] <barrett> ActionParsnip, ^
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> barretg: what options did you use on fsck?
[21:07] <alho> quick question, for a server setup, does localhost refer to the server itself or just the loopback interface?
[21:07] <barrett> ActionParsnip, i've been having lots of raid failures, having to force reassemble, ran fsck once and it found tons of errors, then had more failures, turned out to be my power supply which I replaced.  full raid6 back up and stable. i was just doing a final check "sudo fsck /dev/md0"
[21:07] <alho> if i launch an app listening on localhost, is it technically available to the internet via the server's actual ip address, or is it completely local to the machine
[21:08] <barrett> ActionParsnip, comes back immediatly with "/dev/md0: clean, 1295041/244174848 files,<PHONE_NUMBER>/1953382912 blocks"
[21:09] <gordonjcp> alho: no, it's only listening on localhost
[21:09] <gordonjcp> alho: if you tell it to bind <IP_ADDRESS> it will attempt to bind all possible interfaces
[21:09] <void___> hi, the brightness slider in 13.04 is not working for me. can somebody help me fix this
[21:10] <void___> the brightness hotkeys aren't working either
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> barrett: id read the fsck man pages
[21:14] <alho> gordonjcp: ahh i see, for some reason i've always had the misconception that localhost was some kind of 'pointer' to the machine, so if you launch on localhost, it's now accessible via the internet ip address
[21:15] <alho> gordonjcp: but now that you say that, it makes sense, because it's a different network interface entirely right?
[21:15] <gordonjcp> alho: correct
[21:15] <gordonjcp> alho: if you have more than one IP address, you can bind to just that specific one
[21:18] <alho> gordonjcp: thanks for the insight, one last question, if i'm using something like nodejs, and i bind/listen to an ip address i don't actually own, what happens?
[21:19] <gordonjcp> alho: it'll moan at you about it
[21:19] <alho> gordonjcp: it just ends up being unreachable right? because routers upstream can't get to me via that ip address?
[21:19] <gordonjcp> well it won't even manage to bind the address
[21:19] <alho> gordonjcp: i see, the server software automactialy checks?
[21:19] <gordonjcp> alho: no, it just won't find an interface that matches that IP address
[21:19] <alho> gordonjcp: gotcha, thanks so much! cheers
[21:20] <gordonjcp> you'll get an error message along the lines of "Away with your tomfoolery, idiot!"
[21:20] <alho> gordonjcp: hahah kk, i'll keep that in mind
[21:20] <gordonjcp> alho: it's safe to experiment with this
[21:20] <Martijn-NL> My Ubuntu is running great!!!!!! =D
[21:20] <gordonjcp> alho: you're behind NAT, right?
[21:21] <alho> gordonjcp: no no, i got a server setup, a vps, so if im not mistaken, it's not behind a nat
[21:22] <gordonjcp> alho: no, it isn't, then
[21:22] <gordonjcp> so be a bit careful with it
[21:22] <alho> gordonjcp: is there a good way to check? i doubt it's behind a nat if its vps
[21:22] <gordonjcp> it won't be
[21:22] <alho> gordonjcp: in what sense should i be careful
[21:22] <gordonjcp> alho: well, don't run any obviously insecure stuff
[21:23] <alho> gordonjcp: ahh yes yes of course, don't want anyone getting into my machine , etc, etc
[21:23] <gordonjcp> alho: use your common sense ;-)
[21:23] <void___> can anybody please help me with the brightness problem
[21:23] <alho> gordonjcp: trying to learn to setup nodejs servers, probbaly need a quick refresher on web security
[21:23] <alho> gordonjcp: thanks again, cheers!
[21:23] <honey> oh god.
[21:23] <gordonjcp> alho: you could play at home on your local machine ;-)
[21:23] <wilee-nilee> !details > void___
[21:24] <honey> brightness on what os?
[21:24] <void___> oh sorry
[21:25] <void___> okay. I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 on a Dell Inspiron 14r laptop. Using intel hd graphics. The problem is with brightness. The brightness doesnt change when I use the slider in brightness setting. The brightness indicator moves back and forth when I use the brightness hotkys
[21:26] <Deceptor> GNight
[21:26] <wilee-nilee> void___, fn 6down 7up here try that.
[21:26] <void___> Used to work without a problem in Ubuntu 12.04. I tried some solutions found on askubuntu which involves changing grub cmdline
[21:27] <Deceptor> When I use Cmake for quassel I  get this error: Sorry, Command-not-found has crashed! Does someone knows about it?
[21:27] <void___> wilee-nilee: the hotkeys are f4 and f5 on my laptop.
[21:27] <wilee-nilee> ah
[21:30] <trism> Deceptor: do you not have cmake installed?
[21:30] <Deceptor> I have
[21:30] <trism> Deceptor: can you pastebin the actual output?
[21:30] <Deceptor> here is the full error
[21:30] <Deceptor> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5844918/
[21:31] <trism> Deceptor: that's strange, how about: which cmake;
[21:31] <Deceptor> I use cmake to build quassel on my server
[21:33] <Deceptor> I fixed it already ;) using this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/205378/unsupported-locale-setting-fault-by-command-not-found
[21:34] <trism> Deceptor: still strange that command-not-found was running at all
[21:35] <Deceptor> Yea thats only on live cd right?
[21:35] <Deceptor> I;ve never heard about it
[21:35] <Deceptor> I've/i;ve
[21:35] <tannji> I am trying to get my printer working, preferably as a network printer, connected to the 4 port switch on my wireless router.  I notice this in printer properties: Idle - Unable to locate printer "BRN30055C070C5F".  everything else "appears" to have a plausible setting.  what does that mean specifically?
[21:40] <wilee-nilee> void___, This the askubuntu thread and did you update-grub. http://askubuntu.com/questions/288265/display-brightness-problem-with-ubuntu-13-04
[21:40] <wilee-nilee> or check the ubuntu forums link
[21:40] <void___> wilee-nilee: i've already tried this one. didn't work for me
[21:41] <wilee-nilee> void___, you ran update-grub? answering questions as is saves time here.
[21:42] <void___> yes, i had updated grub after changing the file
[21:42] <wilee-nilee> void___, Cool, we never know with some user is all. ;)
[21:42] <wilee-nilee> users*
[21:42] <void___> it's ok. my bad
[21:44] <void___>  """  echo 'X' |sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness  """ changes the brightness. so, it has to use the vendor specific driver rt
[21:45] <void___> X 's a number.. maximum brightness is 4613
[21:46] <nanvou> hello, does anyone know of a tool to recover corrupted 7z ?
[21:47] <wilee-nilee> void___, Except for the miss-type in the first grub example (slice rather than splash)  this may be helpful, use at your own risk. http://www.refreshit.info/2012/08/solved-brightness-increase-and-decrease.html
[21:47] <void___> wilee-nilee: tried that one just before coming in here. no luck with that either
[21:48] <SuRfDaeMoN> haven't been able to ssh in or out of my nexus 7, hangs after authentication for anything related to ssh, like ssh-copy-id.
[21:48] <reisio> nanvou: just extract it from the OS/tool you used to make it
[21:48] <reisio> nanvou: and avoid that software in future
[21:48] <nanvou> reisio, avoid 7z ?
[21:48] <reisio> nanvou: you may as well, Unix has its own LZMA2 implementations now
[21:49] <wilee-nilee> void___, Bummer, it's nice to have that control. ;(
[21:49] <reisio> xz being the norm (even moreso via tar -cJf)
[21:49] <nanvou> it opens perfectly in remote server, but it seems headers were corrupter over transfer
[21:49] <draconus> tar FTW
[21:49] <nanvou> *corrupted
[21:49] <draconus> reisio still copying data ;)
[21:49] <void___> wilee-nilee: yup. i wouldn't mind if ubuntu didn't remember the brightness setting. i just want to reduce it. drains a lot of battery too
[21:50] <bekks> nanvou: Create md5 sums then on both sides and compare them.
[21:50] <bekks> If they are different, retransfer your archive.
[21:50] <nanvou> bekks, I did sha256 sums and they're different
[21:50] <reisio> draconus: how much?
[21:50] <draconus> reisio like 300GB left
[21:50] <reisio> pretty fast
[21:50] <SuRfDaeMoN> i should probably pre-emptively state that i've updated, i also disabled ipv6 just in case that was it, guess it could be the broadcom driver? seems to have been a problem in the past but idk
[21:50] <draconus> reisio wasn't really this bad
[21:50] <reisio> draconus: what bs did you use?
[21:50] <draconus> yup
[21:50] <nanvou> I want to know if there's any program that I can use to fix headers
[21:51] <draconus> 10MB
[21:51] <reisio> :)
[21:51] <draconus> :)
[21:51] <wilee-nilee> !details > nanvou
[21:51] <draconus> well i managed to delete a few files to it's like 800GB total
[21:51] <draconus> so*
[21:52] <draconus> so excited about the new system and new fs
[21:52] <nanvou> wilee-nilee, file created on remote server with 7z 9.20, opens perfectly fine on remote
[21:52] <bekks> nanvou: I doubt there is. Retransfer your file.
[21:52] <nanvou> bekks, it's 20 GB big ...
[21:52] <bekks> nanvou: Then split it up.
[21:52] <draconus> must be some good p0rn
[21:53] <nanvou> bekks, it's the same amount to download again...
[21:53] <bekks> nanvou: No. Split it up, in, say 20 equal parts, create md5sums, and just transfer that part that has a different checksum.
[21:54] <bekks> nanvou: Thats what can be done with splitting and checksums ;)
[21:54] <wilee-nilee> draconus, By the way this is a family channel.
[21:54] <draconus> i'm truly sorry wilee-nilee, just a bit excited because of this huge problem that i solved today
[21:55] <nanvou> bekks, ah brilliant ! Didn't think about that way. Thanks !
[21:55] <lapidary> one of my network interfaces has no ipv6 link local, what adds link local to an interface?
[21:55] <draconus> bekks interesting idea indeed
[21:56] <bekks> draconus: That interesting idea is used by everyone offering checksums and multipart downloads - since decades :)
[21:58] <draconus> bekks he he
[21:58] <draconus> bekks ok but in this case it's a bit different
[21:59] <draconus> bekks we are talking about a guy who leeched a 20GB file and has to make it up into splits
[21:59] <starlet> #politics-uncensored
[22:00] <draconus> bekks this is a kind of reverse-splitting i would say
[22:06] <tannji> does my ubuntu need samba to connect to my network printer, which is plugged into the 4-port switch in my wireless router?
[22:07] <josiahbryan> hey everyone! I'm sure this is a very popular problem - googling hasnt helped yet tho - I've got a laptop running ubuntu 12.04.2, with a wifi card with a Broadcom driver and I'm trying to get airmon-ng to start on eth1 - however, it gives me an error: "mon0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device." It seems to boil down to mon0 - no such device. Any ideas on how to get this working? (I've tried 'service stop avahi-dae
[22:07] <lapidary> ah; one problem was mtu was only 576; not sure why though
[22:11] <wilee-nilee> josiahbryan, Not supported here.
[22:12] <josiahbryan> Ahh fun - whats not supported? mon0? Or airmon?
[22:12] <wilee-nilee> airmon-ng
[22:12] <withnale> is there any way I can get text based taskbar in the topmenu on 13.04?
[22:12] <josiahbryan> gotcha. Any pointers regarding mon0 under ubuntu then in general, or is mon0 a airmon-specific device?
[22:13] <MonkeyDust> withnale  you mean like old gnome2? if yes, try !fallback
[22:13] <wilee-nilee> josiahbryan, Not in my area of knowledge, how limited that it is. ;)
[22:14] <MonkeyDust> !info gnome-session-fallback
[22:14] <josiahbryan> limited knowledge here as well - CentOS is my stomping grounds, just booted this ubuntu laptop for the first time in several months, so I'm way out of my comfort zone re: the OS in general :-)
[22:14] <josiahbryan> anyone else know anything about mon0 under ubuntu, or is this the wrong place to ask? :-) Sorry for the trouble if it is :-)
[22:15] <wilee-nilee> josiahbryan, Pretty good support, it is just that this channel is limited to whats in the repos in general.
[22:15] <wilee-nilee> or in a stock install
[22:15] <josiahbryan> ahh so since airmon not in repos/stock, then its probably not supported here - totally understand. No worries :-)
[22:15] <SuRfDaeMoN> josiahbryan: it's not?
[22:16] <josiahbryan> not that apt-get install airmon can find
[22:16] <SuRfDaeMoN> !aircrack-ng
[22:16] <wilee-nilee> !info airmon-ng
[22:16] <SuRfDaeMoN> !info aircrack-ng
[22:16] <SuRfDaeMoN> it's in the same package
[22:16] <wilee-nilee> we don't support cracking as well.
[22:16] <josiahbryan> airmon-ng not available, referred to by another package "iw" - iw already installed, but no air* binary utilities found
[22:17] <josiahbryan> wilee-nilee, understood.
[22:17] <wilee-nilee> SuRfDaeMoN, What you do in pm is yours though. ;)
[22:18] <withnale> I don't want to lose all the bells and whistles of unity really. I just want to see a text based list of what is running by looking at the top of the screen
[22:18] <SuRfDaeMoN> wilee-nilee: seems like a strange standard, what's next, nmap?
[22:18] <wilee-nilee> SuRfDaeMoN, really, no cracking support on a worldwide support channel, family friendly.
[22:18] <josiahbryan> I'd also like to put it in monitor mode just for the joy of being able to listen on signal strengths of multiple networks inorder to expierment with indoor geolocation - but without monitor mode, i have to trigger a scan every Xms - and that interface is painfully slow
[22:19] <wilee-nilee> not my rules, and I suggeted how you can help.
[22:19] <SuRfDaeMoN> wilee-nilee: in my repos though. and ubottu knows it.
[22:19] <SuRfDaeMoN> wilee-nilee: not saying this should be the support channel :P but acting like ubuntu has never heard of it is silly.
[22:20] <wilee-nilee> SuRfDaeMoN, In some it seems not in raring and not supported no matter what, common sense here don't you think, anyway way off topic.
[22:20] <beyondcr> It would be great to see a more detailed wireless view with real time percentage
[22:20] <josiahbryan> beyondcr, agreed- not sure how to get that from the kernel tho.
[22:20] <SuRfDaeMoN> how is it not in raring?
[22:20] <wilee-nilee> SuRfDaeMoN, never said ubuntu was not aware that is a projection.
[22:21] <josiahbryan> I've been expiermenting with wifi geolocation (http://code.google.com/p/wifisigmap/) and faster wifi signal levels (from multiple aps) would be hugely helpful
[22:21] <beyondcr> well wavemon dose it quite well but it is ncurses based
[22:23] <moksud_xp> register moksud_xp
[22:23] <moksud_xp> !register moksud_xp
[22:23] <josiahbryan> moksud_xp try /msg NickServ
[22:24] <moksud_xp> Insufficient arguments for command
[22:25] <SuRfDaeMoN> wilee-nilee: so does that mean that nothing from 'universe' should be discussed here?
[22:25] <moksud_xp> hello, there is someone that can help me with ubuntu command
[22:25] <moksud_xp> ?
[22:25] <click> Can anyone help me with some scripting
[22:25] <SuRfDaeMoN> !ask | moksud_xp
[22:26] <wilee-nilee> !anyone > click
[22:26] <moksud_xp> I need a guide/help to understand Ubuntu line commands, I'm a Windows user and I understand all Command Prompt commands with windows, now I want to do the same thing with Linux Ubuntu...
[22:27] <Ben64> !manual | moksud_xp
[22:27] <OerHeks> !terminal
[22:29] <moksud_xp> I don't installed the GUI interface
[22:29] <wheatthin> which one?
[22:29] <moksud_xp> cause I don't need Linux to use it with a GUI, I need it for server, so I need terminal
[22:29] <wheatthin> then use ubuntu-server :)
[22:30] <trism> withnale: there's this: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/06/how-to-get-list-of-open-windows-on.html
[22:30] <click>  i want to cut string starting from .ubuntu to the end from the following link how may i do it "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal"
[22:30] <SuRfDaeMoN> moksud_xp: ok, then what about 'man man' and '--help' or '-h' after a command can help.
[22:31] <wilee-nilee> moksud_xp, This is support not instruction, there is cli info all over the web 1000's of sites.
[22:33] <SuRfDaeMoN> click: sed?
[22:34] <stupidscript> Need to set up LTSP on new server in existing network, then move everyone over to use it with as little downtime as possible. Live office environment currently running Windows Domain Controller. Issue: IP assignment on LTSP server (Ubuntu 12.04 installed from alternate) so thin clients can find the kernel image. Where can I go to view an example of this type of setup? thx
[22:35] <beyondcr> Any ideas of how to get a system wide sound normalization into ubuntu?
[22:35] <click> SuRfDaeMoN: no problem i am only a beginer in scripts i have no idea of awk sed is just fine i have no idea how to do it either :)
[22:35] <draconus2> might seem stupid question but can you actually auto delete files when creating a tgz? any switch for that in tar?
[22:36] <exodus_ms> who has some serious grub foo?
[22:37] <stupidscript> Looking for LTSP in existing Windows Domain Controller network examples
[22:37] <SuRfDaeMoN> click: like this?  echo "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal" | sed -e 's/\.ubuntu.*//g'
[22:38] <click> SuRfDaeMoN: yes yes will it print from .ubuntu to the end
[22:39] <kelly> hello guys , i have nvidia 9500 gt , and i tried kde desktop it is good but the kwin effects does not run smoothly like intel graphics ? any idea
[22:41] <exodus_ms> !grub
[22:45] <exodus_ms> need to restore system. no cd drive. have bootable flash drive but can't get grub to find path to load system
[22:47] <syntroPi> do chroot to the installed ubuntu and run "sudo update-grub" from there then
[22:49] <sere> im trying to open a file word.txt and then copy that file to words2.txt and then print words2.txt this isnt working will someone please check my program
[22:49] <sere> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5845093/
[22:50] <sere> sorry wrong channel*
[22:54] <exodus_ms> syntroPi, I can't boot into anything. it goes straight to the grub recovery > prompt
[22:55] <miclen> Hei guys
[22:55] <miclen> How are you?
[22:56] <syntroPi> exodus_ms, not sure but maybe you also can fix it from there. i meant boot from usb stick, chroot into your installation on hdd and then update grub
[22:58] <syntroPi> exodus_ms,  something similar to this here "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt ; sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev ;  sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys ; sudo mount -t proc /proc /mnt/proc ; sudo chroot /mnt /bin/bash ; grub-install --force /dev/sda ; exit ; reboot"
[22:59] <exodus_ms> syntroPi, ok, got it. I think I have a hdd failure on the horizon. I just need to get in there, grab what I can and get out.
[22:59] <exodus_ms> syntroPi, thank you btw
[23:00] <syntroPi> ooh well then dont power it down and copy as soon as possible. most valuable data first
[23:00] <exodus_ms> syntroPi, gotcha, just need my home drive, I can live with losing everything else
[23:03] <ati9> hh
[23:07] <rlw980> hello
[23:07] <moksud_xp> hello, I have installed Ubuntu Server
[23:07] <moksud_xp> without a GUI
[23:07] <moksud_xp> now I need to understand how to install and execute google chrome witl CLI... it's possible without a GUI ?
[23:08] <jrib> moksud_xp: that is not possible since google chrome is a graphical program.
[23:09] <jrib> moksud_xp: if you install it, it will also install a gui
[23:10] <rlw980> I've installed F-prot antivirus via command, I found out that xfprot is like a Front-end off the F-prot command line. Could you help me please? Oh and also I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 and my Wireless icon where the time is has gone
[23:12] <rlw980> In other words can you help me install xfprot
[23:13] <Kitt3n> rlw980, tried 'sudo apt-get install xfprot'?
[23:14] <rlw980> Kitt3n: Nope, I shall do that for you now
[23:14] <Senerem> Hello. I'm trying to run wpa_cli on ubuntu 13.04 live cd. But getting the "Could not connect to wpa_supplicant" error.
[23:14] <Senerem> tried using wpa_cli -p /var/run/wpa_supplicant command but still no juice :(
[23:15] <moksud_xp> okey...
[23:15] <moksud_xp> I think that for now I need a GUI, just cause of chrome
[23:15] <rlw980> Kitt3n: Nope, nothing
[23:15] <moksud_xp> then I try to use only CLI instead of GUI, I'll just use chrome with the gui
[23:15] <moksud_xp> so, how to install GUI ?
[23:17] <jrib> moksud_xp: pick a gui that you want and install the package for it
[23:17] <jrib> !vnc | moksud_xp
[23:18] <moksud_xp> why I need VNC ?
[23:18] <moksud_xp> I need a GUI, not a protocol for remote desktop...
[23:18] <jrib> moksud_xp: you want a remote desktop, yes?
[23:18] <jrib> moksud_xp: isn't this on a remote server?
[23:19] <Senerem> Anyone got an idea? :)
[23:19] <moksud_xp> for now I just want to install a GUI to use Chrome
[23:19] <jrib> moksud_xp: if it's on a remote server, then install a gui and setup vnc
[23:19] <moksud_xp> cause now I need to switch on windows when I want to use this chatroom... so I need chrome in my Linux to have the capacity to use this chatroom directly from linux and also I can search tutorials directly from Linux...
[23:20] <jrib> moksud_xp: is this on a remote server or a local machine?
[23:20] <moksud_xp> local
[23:20] <moksud_xp> cause for now I'm trying to discover and understand Ubuntu...
[23:20] <jrib> moksud_xp: then forget about vnc and just install whatever gui you want.  ubuntu-deskotp is the default.
[23:20] <jrib> moksud_xp: ubuntu-desktop*
[23:20] <moksud_xp> when I'll be a good linux user, I buy a Cloud Service and install Ubuntu on it
[23:21] <gordonjcp> moksud_xp: don't install GUIs on servers
[23:24] <moksud_xp> gordon, I understand this... but I'm a new user... I must need chrome on my Linux to view tutorials and take help from forums/chats
[23:28] <moksud_xp> I found 3 type of Ubuntu GUI
[23:29] <moksud_xp> 3 types of installations...
[23:29] <moksud_xp> 1 : sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[23:29] <moksud_xp> 2: sudo aptitude install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop
[23:29] <moksud_xp> 3: sudo apt-get install xvnc4viewer
[23:29] <moksud_xp> what type of installation is better for me ?
[23:41] <sindri> Anyone why I get "530 non-anonymous sessions must use encryption" running "ftp localhost" trying to login after configuring vsftpd to use ssl and virtual users?
[23:47] <moksud_xp> there is no one online?

[23:54] <django87> hola
[23:55] <moksud_xp> how to update package manager?
[23:56] <Kitt3n> moksud_xp, ????
[23:57] <sindri> moksud_xp: $sudo apt-get upgrade?
[23:57] <leo-the-manic_> I tried to install Python 3.3.2 from source but had a problem (didn't have sqlite3) so I wanted to uninstall it. Through the internet I found out about 'checkinstall' so I used that to make a deb package or something. But now Ubuntu thinks that Python < 2.7 is uninstalled and won't let me use apt-get at all, because it seems checkinstall made a package just called "python"
[23:57] <leo-the-manic_> And I don't know where to go from here, really
[23:57] <k1l_> moksud_xp: "sudo apt-get update&&sudo apt-get upgrade"
[23:58] <whoever_> sindri: thx
[23:58]  * whoever_ wonders if moksud_xp neets mint
[23:58] <rlw> HELPPP!!!!

[23:59] <whoever_> rlw: so what have you done so far
