[10:50] <cfhowlett> sajan, update?  if you installed via .deb, you'll need to repeat that process.  if you installed via software center: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:51] <sajan> actually i cant find team viewer in software center
[10:52] <sajan> cfhowlett, actually i cant find team viewer in software center
[10:52] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, let's try fixing it: "set prefix=(hd0,msdos8)/boot/grub"
[10:53] <cfhowlett> sajan, read more.  IRC less.  took me 10 seconds on the teamviewer page to find the details.  https://www.teamviewer.com/en/help/363-How-do-I-install-TeamViewer-on-my-Linux-distribution.aspx
[10:53] <aeyesi> um
[10:54] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: done
[10:54] <aeyesi> how do we turn ubuntu into lubuntu ?
[10:54] <aeyesi> :0
[10:54] <aeyesi> hah nevermind
[10:54] <cfhowlett> aeyesi, sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop         then purge ubuntu-desktop
[10:54] <aeyesi> thanks
[10:54] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: now try "ls /" and you should see kernel names such as "vmlinuz-....." and others
[10:54] <MonkeyDust> !purelubuntu | aeyesi
[10:55] <Ben64> yeah i'm not sure if purging ubuntu-desktop is wise
[10:55] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: no such partition
[10:55] <aeyesi> i was just curious
[10:55] <cfhowlett> MonkeyDust, ah.  better than my advice, for sure!
[10:56] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Hmmm... OK try this "ls (hd0,msdos8)/"
[10:56] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  the old saying: two know more than one
[10:56] <aeyesi> somehow i am getting better FPS under LXDE
[10:56] <aeyesi> thankie thankie
[10:56] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: no such partition
[10:56] <cfhowlett> aeyesi, option. test the desktop environment = unity is hungry.
[10:57] <aeyesi> ik ik
[10:57] <cfhowlett> aeyesi, sudo apt-install lxde           logout.  choose lxde session.  login.  test.
[10:57] <aeyesi> ~
[10:57] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: That shouldn't be happening! try "ls" and tell me all the HDs and partitions it shows you
[10:58] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I'm suspecting the disk with 8 partitions is, in fact, hd1 not hd0
[10:58] <DBoyz[A]> hd0 hd0,msdos5 hd0,msdos3 hd0,msdos2 hd0,msdos1
[10:59] <DBoyz[A]> hd1 hd1,msdos3 hd1,msdos2 hd1,msdos1
[11:00] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Do you notice something missing? The drive with the 8 partitions on?
[11:00] <aeyesi> Hmm ill try once again ask... I wonder if someone knows how to get 5.1 analog sound working on this motherboard? http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4168#ov
[11:00] <aeyesi> Pulseaudo config edits simply do-not work >.<
[11:00] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: yes. Was about to point that out
[11:01] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Is it an external *USB* attached device?
[11:01] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: yes
[11:03] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: aha! We have it. ... When grub-install ran, it didn't figure out that the boot disk needs the USB module in core.img
[11:03] <hume> TJ-, back
[11:03] <TJ-> hume: :)
[11:04] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: eh okay. Never seen such setting in the docs
[11:04] <DBoyz[A]> Help me with that pls
[11:05] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: That, or else for some reason the motherboard has disabled "USB Legacy" support. So, first, reboot the PC, press the key to get into the motherboard's firmware setup (often the F2 or Del keys), and look for an option that sounds like "USB Legacy" and enable it. If you can't spot one, wait, tell me, and I'll pull in the motherboard manual and check  it
[11:05] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: okay hang on
[11:06] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, I have it. "Integrated Peripherals" menu
[11:07] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: USB legacy support is already enabled
[11:07] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: And "USB functions" are also enabled?
[11:08] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Is "Legacy USB Support" set to "enabled" or "auto" ?
[11:08] <DBoyz[A]> USB functions is enabled
[11:08] <DBoyz[A]> Legacy USB support is enabled
[11:09] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Does "Legacy USB Support" have an "auto" option (just for my information) ?
[11:09] <DBoyz[A]> Should I change it to auto?
[11:09] <hume> TJ-, got ay ideas on what to do now, when there is a profile for network manager?
[11:09] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: both does not have the auto option
[11:09] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: No, I don't think so, this rules out it being a BIOS issue, so we can focus on the GRUB side :)
[11:10] <DBoyz[A]> Okay
[11:10] <TJ-> hume: "sudo service network-manager restart"
[11:10] <TJ-> hume: then "nmcli con list" - do you see the connection you created listed there?
[11:11] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Boot it again get to GRUB rescue shell (unless it magically boots!)
[11:11] <hume> TJ-, yes, now nmcli shows the profile
[11:11] <sgo11> anyone running lubuntu here? by following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2144468, I add "@compton -b &" to the file ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart. but compton does not autostart after login. any ideas why? thanks. (PS: I tried to manually run it. it works).
[11:12] <DBoyz[A]> Hang on
[11:12] <TJ-> hume: "nmcli con up id Wired-Connection-1"
[11:12] <hume> service restart showed an error: "GLib-critical ***: Source ID 141 was not found when attempting to remove it
[11:12] <TJ-> hume: Hmmm, let's hope that wasn't important :)
[11:13] <hume> TJ-, sorry..what was listed in nmcli was NOT the profile... the name is different, it is a swedish name, not Wire-Connection-1 but the same in Swedish
[11:14] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: done
[11:14] <hume> nmcli con up says Unknown connection
[11:14] <TJ-> hume: that's due to your local language settings probably. Use that as the 'id' name for the command, instead of "Wired-Connection-1"
[11:14] <hume> TJ-, ok, that worked, no error msg
[11:14] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  i use lubuntu in a vm, trying it now (didnt know compton)
[11:14] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, let's check what devices it sees again: "ls"  and just look for any device with a partition number of msdos8, no need to type them if it isn't there
[11:15] <TJ-> hume: The connection should be active now
[11:15] <hume> TJ-, and I have a network connection
[11:15] <hume> TJ-, but no applet......
[11:15] <hume> :(
[11:15] <TJ-> hume: OK, so there's a problem there then.
[11:15] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, you have to add a ppa and install it first. thanks, but you don't have to do that. too much work for you.
[11:15] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: there's no msdos8.
[11:15] <TJ-> hume: Could you do a complete reboot now, in case that jogs it?
[11:15] <hume> TJ-, ok
[11:15] <DBoyz[A]> Same as what I told earlier
[11:16] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Hmmm.... how many different 'hdX' names, only hd0 and hd1 ?
[11:16] <DBoyz[A]> only hd0 and hd1
[11:16] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  compton is in the trusty repos, ok
[11:16] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, back to the Live ISO boot :)
[11:16] <DBoyz[A]> Okay
[11:17] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, thanks. :)
[11:17] <hume> TJ-, ok, rebooted. the connection is up and running but no applet
[11:18] <TJ-> hume: OK, well that's progress for sure :)
[11:18] <guessfg> http://tinyurl.com/p5bpscx
[11:18] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  are you in 14.04 now? compton didnt exist isn 12.04
[11:18] <hume> TJ-, yes, it's usable now
[11:18] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, yeah, I am in 14.04.
[11:19] <TJ-> hume: now lets trawl the bug reports in launchpad for bugs that match your scenario and installed system - you said it was vanilla Ubuntu/Unity 14.04, yes?
[11:19] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  simply enter compton& in the terminal
[11:19] <hume> TJ-, yes, standard 14.01 desktop 64 bit
[11:19] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: back on live usb
[11:19] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  install compton, like any other program
[11:19] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, I am running compton now. it's just not autostarted.
[11:20] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, I'm going to get you to download a bash script I have for mounting a broken system in a chroot: https://iam.tj/projects/misc/chroot-auto.bash
[11:20] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  guess you can add it to the startup programs, then
[11:21] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Once it is downloaded, open a  terminal and move it to the home directory for ease of use "mv Downloads/*.bash ~"
[11:21] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, I added it to ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart, it doesn't work. that is my question.
[11:21] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: then, make it executable: "chmod +x chroot-auto.bash"
[11:23] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: done
[11:24] <TJ-> hume this seems to be the most recent major identical issue, but it is marked Fix Released: bug 1308348
[11:24] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  i did the same, rebooting vm now
[11:24] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, now check that the disk with 8 partitions is visible: "sudo fdisk -l" and give me the device name (e.g. sdb)
[11:25] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, thanks. did you add @ symbol in the front? I am wondering if I should remove that @ symbol. I am not sure what it is.
[11:26] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  @ is used for cronjobs, like: @reboot
[11:26] <TJ-> hume: I'm working through this list: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bugs?orderby=-id&start=0
[11:27] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  you're right, it's not loaded
[11:27] <DBoyz[A]> Tj: It is /dev/sdb8
[11:27] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, yeah, that's weird. I googled it. many people said I can put @command in ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart
[11:28] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: ^
[11:28] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, 2nd, lets check we have someplace to mount it
[11:28] <killer> Hey , I have these kernels in update-grub http://pastebin.com/x23Z7nuq , none of the 3.2 version is displayed in the submenu Advanced options
[11:28] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: "ls - /mnt/"
[11:29] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: typo! "ls /mnt/"
[11:29] <DBoyz[A]> No replies from that comand
[11:29] <TJ-> hume: Can you confirm that nm-applet is running right now? "ps -efly | grep nm-applet"
[11:30] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK, it exists then :) Now we create a chroot for the broken system: "sudo ./chroot-auto.bash /mnt /dev/sdb8"
[11:31] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  the @ doe not make a difference
[11:31] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: This should tell you it has mounted it and you're at a root shell inside the broken system
[11:31] <DBoyz[A]> Okay
[11:31] <DBoyz[A]> Done
[11:32] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: lets check it has network connectivity: "ping -nc 4 <IP_ADDRESS>"
[11:32] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, maybe it's a bug. I am running this irc client in lubuntu. testing and rebooting are not convenient for me. let me google the problem first. thanks.
[11:33] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: all good here
[11:33] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Now let's check if pastebinit is installed. "which pastebinit"
[11:33] <hume> TJ-, yes, seems to be running
[11:34] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: yup installed
[11:34] <TJ-> hume: OK, so it is remaining invisible even when NM is active and there's a connection. I've found 1 other open report of that but no follow-up except the plain fact, so far
[11:34] <hume> TJ-, ok....guess it's OK to leave it at that then, for the moment
[11:35] <hume> TJ-, thanks a lot for your help!!
[11:35] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Right, let's try re-installing grub and capturing the output to a file, which you can then pastebin for me. "sudo grub-install --verbose /dev/sdb 2>&1 | tee /tmp/grub-install.log"
[11:36] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  yes, it's compton related, another command works, so...
[11:36] <TJ-> hume: You're welcome - you've got a weird issue. I'd suggest a package upgrade in case there's a fix in the pipeline that system just hasn't received: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
[11:36] <TJ-> hume: and then one last reboot to test it :)
[11:36] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, really? weird.
[11:38] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  try this in autostart: xdg-open [some small jpg or text file]
[11:39] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: how do I pastebin it?
[11:39] <hume> TJ-, will do!!
[11:39] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: "pastebinit /tmp/grub-install.log"
[11:39] <DBoyz[A]> There's some errors here blockhead and etx
[11:39] <DBoyz[A]> Etc*
[11:40] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, I will have to close this IRC client first. brb.
[11:40] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: unable to read
[11:40] <DBoyz[A]> Seems like it is 0 byte
[11:41] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: has the "grub-install" command exited?
[11:41] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: yes
[11:42] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: That is weird... you say the file is empty?
[11:42] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: yes
[11:42] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: and you typed the command exactly as I wrote it - with the redirectiions "2>&1 | ..."
[11:43] <DBoyz[A]> Yes
[11:43] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I wonder if there's some out-of-space issue on the file-system. "df" ... anything close to 100% usage ?
[11:43] <xeb> which bit of this is signed and verified before execution again? http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_<IP_ADDRESS>0.orig.tar.gz ?
[11:44] <Lorra> Hi everybody! I recently updated 12.04.4 -> 14.04.1, I use fluxbox and wbar and a new version of wbar came with ubuntu 14.04.1. When I start google-chrome and maximize its window, when I minimize all windows I can't see the wbar anymore. What is wrong with that :'( ?
[11:44] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: 61.9GB free space. Can't be
[11:45] <DBoyz[A]> Sex
[11:45] <marvin-hh> After an upgrade tex is fucked up.
[11:45] <DBoyz[A]> Sec*
[11:45] <marvin-hh> Why can't you *test* your shit?
[11:45] <TJ-> !language | marvin-hh
[11:46] <marvin-hh> Why can't you test your code before you push it to the repositories?
[11:46] <TJ-> marvin-hh: Talk to the package maintainers
[11:46] <MonkeyDust> marvin-hh  who doesnt test code before pushing it?
[11:47] <DBoyz> TJ-: better
[11:47] <MonkeyDust> marvin-hh  if ypu're more skilled than the developers, join their team
[11:47] <TJ-> DBoyz: You got the log?
[11:47] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, solved. simply remove the trailing & symbol. it will work.
[11:47] <DBoyz> TJ-: You are trying to send an empty document, exiting.
[11:47] <DBoyz> TJ-: command was - sudo grub-install --verbose /dev/sdb2>&1 | tee /tmp/grub-install.log
[11:47] <killer> I have uninstalled kernel 3.8.0-29 and 3.8.0-32 but it is still shon in advanced options ubuntu grub
[11:48] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, "@compton -b" will work.
[11:48] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  really! so not daemonize it... /me tries
[11:48] <marvin-hh> MonkeyDust: I am more skilled; it's just that I don't have the time nor the interest to work on it.
[11:48] <DBoyz> and pastebinit command was - pastebinit /tmp/grub-install.log
[11:48] <TJ-> DBoyz: Oh, no, typo! "sudo grub-install --verbose /dev/sdb8    2>&1 | tee /tmp/grub-install.log"
[11:48] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, I think "&" symbol is not allowed in autostart.
[11:48] <MonkeyDust> marvin-hh  then contact the team with hints & tips
[11:48] <TJ-> DBoyz: another typo sorry, hang on I'll get my fingers out
[11:48] <TJ-> DBoyz: Oh, no, typo! "sudo grub-install --verbose /dev/sdb   2>&1 | tee /tmp/grub-install.log"
[11:49] <marvin-hh> MonkeyDust: they would never listen. That's not how open-souce hipsters roll.
[11:49] <TJ-> DBoyz: there, a space between "sdb" and the "2>&1"
[11:49] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  ah, rhe joys of a virtual machine
[11:49] <DBoyz> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8121914/
[11:49] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, :)
[11:50] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, which vm app do you use? virtualbox?
[11:51] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  no, i prefer vmware, it's faster
[11:51] <TJ-> DBoyz: phew! that's better... give me a few moments to read it
[11:51] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, vmware? is that free?
[11:52] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  Player is free, workstation is not
[11:53] <DBoyz> TJ-: take your time
[11:53] <killer> I have uninstalled kernel 3.8.0-29 and 3.8.0-32 but it is still shown in advanced options ubuntu grub
[11:53] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, what is the difference btw player and workstation?
[11:53] <iffffx> hi
[11:53] <TJ-> DBoyz: line 974 looks suspect: "grub-install: info: grub-mkimage --directory '/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc' --prefix '(,msdos8)/boot/grub' ..." the prefix ought to be (hd1,msdos8)... I think, let me check here
[11:55] <justgreg> hey all, I'm getting E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) every time I run apt-get . How do I troubleshoot and solve this?
[11:58] <DBoyz> how do i know if it's hd1 or hd0
[11:58] <TJ-> DBoyz: OK, line 1195 seems to show its OK "setting the root device to `hostdisk//dev/sdb,msdos8'."
[11:59] <DBoyz> okay
[11:59] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  workstation has more features
[11:59] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, ok. which package should I install to use vmware player? do I need to add any ppa? thanks.
[11:59] <TJ-> DBoyz: There's nothing else we can do there, type "exit" to exit the chroot and then reboot and lets see whether GRUB has got an better
[12:00] <DBoyz> okay
[12:00] <DBoyz> since it says 'Installation finished. No error reported.'
[12:01] <MonkeyDust> sgo11  I followed this, it's very easy https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[12:01] <DBoyz> hang on
[12:01] <sgo11> MonkeyDust, got it. thanks.
[12:01] <TJ-> DBoyz: There's one issue I can think of that can cause this, again Motherboard related. If BIOS tells GRUB that the boot device is a hard disk it should give it the device number 128 (hex 0x80) but if BIOS is using "Floppy disk emulation" for USB devices the device number will be 0, which could cause this issue since GRUB relies on BIOS for all disk read services
[12:04] <DBoyz> TJ-: okay
[12:05] <DBoyz> fingers crossed!
[12:06] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: nope
[12:06] <DBoyz[A]> Same thing
[12:06] <TJ-> DBoyz: "ls" shows no msdos8 ?
[12:07] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: no msdos8
[12:08] <TJ-> DBoyz: Well, at least we know *what* is wrong, even if not the *why*. How much time do you want to spend on fixing this? It looks challenging
[12:08] <_2_rianna123> hey
[12:09] <DBoyz[A]> Hmm it's almost dinner time here
[12:09] <DBoyz[A]> Maybe 30 mins?
[12:09] <TJ-> DBoyz: I have to go out soon, for several hours, too.   I'd suggest going back into BIOS setup and doing "Load Default Settings"
[12:11] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: And after the reboot check that those USB functions are both enabled still
[12:11] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: One other thing - are you using the manual boot device menu to select the boot device
[12:12] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: If so, I'd try setting the BIOS boot menu options to but the USB removable device as the first device, save that setting, and reboot... it could be some weird bug related to using the manual device selection
[12:13] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Oh and one other idea... try a different USB port :D
[12:14] <DBoyz[A]> Srsly? Lol
[12:14] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Yes, I've seen stranger!
[12:14] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: for example if its currently connected via a front-facing USB port, try a rear USB port that is directly mounted on the motherboard
[12:15] <CrypticByte> yep i have a server that wasn't working on one usb port sometimes it would boot sometimes it wouldn't and if it did boot it would fail the installation cause it would loose power during the install
[12:15] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: nope
[12:15] <CrypticByte> took me forever before i realized it was a faulty usb port :P
[12:15] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: it could be that the BIOS services offered to the boot-loader only activate one of the several USB controllers/hubs on the mobo
[12:16] <DBoyz[A]> Changed USB ports
[12:16] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: You've basically got to reduce all the possibilities no matter how far-out, until we get a clue
[12:16] <CrypticByte> If you can't boot via usb you might first want to check it on a different computer.  Its possible the image didn't copy correctly to the usb and bios sees an invalid image and passes it up
[12:17] <TJ-> CrypticByte: It does boot
[12:17] <villenom> Hello guys
[12:17] <DBoyz[A]> And I am setting boot order to boot my external hard disk first
[12:17] <TJ-> CrypticByte: The issue is, grub's MBR and then core image load, but core.img cannot find it's root file-system... because GRUB cannot see the boot device, because BIOS doesn't show it to GRUB
[12:18] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: it first loaded on another computer
[12:18] <DBoyz[A]> Then it won't on this one
[12:18] <DBoyz[A]> Tried another one and it didn't work either
[12:21] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: I had no problem booting flash disk tho
[12:21] <DBoyz[A]> Could there be a bios update? Idk how old this computer is
[12:23] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: If a USB flash boots from the same port, then that points us back to GRUB itself. What kind of device is being used to connect the hard drive over USB, some form of SATA<>USB caddy?
[12:24] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: um it's a hard disk adaptor or whatever it is called
[12:24] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I think I know what it is
[12:24] <fabio_> i've tried lmms on ubuntu 14.04 but the version 1.0.0 seems a little unstable.. what i can do?
[12:25] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: The partitions on that disk are out of order, e.g sdb3 is at the end of the disk but then the extended partition sdb4 is earlier in the disk, then sdb7 is after sdb8 (in terms of starting sectors)
[12:26] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: true
[12:26] <vaskozl> Hey when I go to the network manager and create a hotspot
[12:26] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I think that is simply confusing either GRUB (unusual) or BIOS or a bit of both. I wonder if when we see GRUB rescue listing the 2 devices, but no msdos8 partition, it is listing just the first 3 partitions on the disk?
[12:26] <vaskozl> it gives me the computer name is the ssid and a random wep password
[12:26] <vaskozl> how can you change the name the channel the password or the encryption?
[12:27] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: let me fetch bakc what you typed earlier from the output of the "ls" command, that might help us
[12:27] <killer> I am unable to boot an older kernl 3.2 ( as it is not shown in grub submenu) for 5-6 hours ,  Please help
[12:28] <killer> ?
[12:28] <DBoyz[A]> BTW my adaptor is something like this
[12:28] <DBoyz[A]> https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRg-HT99qRf9GBVMmk-Ps1UdAgr6ksRUZoObBT-T3AqgGhk8rST
[12:28] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I think that's it! It shows hd1 with 2 partitions (that matches the NTFS drive)
[12:29] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: but the other disk had: "hd0 hd0,msdos5 hd0,msdos3 hd0,msdos2 hd0,msdos1"
[12:29] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: yea
[12:29] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: so msdos5 would be the NTFS in the extended partition but it can't see past that
[12:30] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: ahhhhhh which leads us back to a BIOS limitation possibly.
[12:30] <DBoyz[A]> Okay
[12:31] <fabio_> fabio_: test
[12:31] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: but there's no msdos4
[12:32] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Extended partitions are chained, so you have MBR at sector 0 points to Extended at sector 263,546,386 which will contain sdb5, but then Extended partitions usually only have one logical partition in each, so with 4 logical partitions as you have, there'll be an additional 3 extended partition tables further into the disk
[12:32] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: msdos4 is invisible - it's the first extended partition table, not a file-system, so not shown
[12:33] <DBoyz[A]> *digesting*
[12:33] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Now, if we imagine that the Extended PTs are at large sector offsets into the disk, and further assume the BIOS might be limited in the maximum sector it can address... the effect would be for some partitions not to show up since BIOS can't reach them
[12:34] <DBoyz[A]> I see.
[12:34] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: historically, BIOS maximum sector offset limitations meant that boot loaders and OS boot files had to be 'below' a certain sector offset for the BIOS to reach them
[12:34] <DBoyz[A]> That explains
[12:35] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I'm trying to figure out a way we could prove this, but that fact this worked on another PC kind of points to it, especially as GRUB can't see beyond msdos5
[12:36] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: it did not work on another computer either. Out of 3, only one worked
[12:36] <scribawf_> installed Ubuntu 13.04 using wubi, now asking for PW to start, any help on this please?
[12:36] <DBoyz[A]> That computer is relatively new. It's less than a year old compared to the other two
[12:36] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: The other problem PC might have the same limitation... this is the best working hypothesis we have so far anyhow
[12:37] <DBoyz[A]> Okay
[12:37] <deepak_sirone> hello
[12:37] <deepak_sirone> i totally destroyed the partition table of my laptop
[12:38] <deepak_sirone> is there any way i can recover my data?
[12:38] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: any way I can boot windows temporarily since grub is able to read it
[12:38] <cfhowlett> !recover
[12:38] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: OK... how about if the USB<>SATA (PATA ?) can't translate above a certain number of sectors. I've seen those devices sold with specific capacity limitations - although that doesn't square with us being able to mount the device correctly once in a Linux boot, unless the BIOS + USB Caddy causes the limitation
[12:38] <deepak_sirone> deleted partitions are ntfs
[12:39] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: possibly, I'd have to bone up on that one :) which partition do you want to boot?
[12:39] <stevendumani> hi room, I have a box with 4 Gigs DDR2 Ram, 3GHz P4 Processor and I wanna install ubuntu amd64, I wanna know which one is faster, I'm not looking for up-to-date applications, I'm looking for which one is faster. 14.04 or 12.04, and another question: what's the difference between 12.04 Desktop and 12.04 Alternative?
[12:39] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Ahhh, no :( We'd have to "insmod ntfs" and that's in the missing msdos8
[12:39] <scribawf_> installed Ubuntu 13.04 using wubi and asking for PW to start, any hints on how to do this or PW to use?
[12:40] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  Alternative is the server edition
[12:40] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: that couldn't be the case since I was able to boot it on another pc
[12:40] <DBoyz[A]> (The caddy limitation thingy)
[12:40] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust u mean like in OpenSUSE? Desktop and server in one box?
[12:41] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  no, server has different partitioning and no GUI
[12:41] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: If BIOS and Caddy conspire together it could. We know for sure that the last 3 partitions are missing from the list
[12:41] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust but there is a server edition. there are 3 downloads available on the download page.
[12:42] <DBoyz[A]> Hm. Could a bios update fix this?
[12:42] <freeaaa> http://tinyurl.com/p5bpscx  try it  free tips if lose
[12:42] <corollax_> My system is currently affected by Issue 376893 in Chromium version 36.0. This issue has been resolved in version 37.0
[12:43] <corollax_> What's the best way to add a more recent version of chromium to my repositories?
[12:43] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  what 3 would that be, desktop, server and... ?
[12:43] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust go here http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads and scroll down to the BitTorrent section
[12:44] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: Just been checking on that; but so far can't see a more recent than the "BIOS 080014  03/01/2010" currently installed
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  yes, what was your question?
[12:44] <DBoyz[A]> Guess I am out of luck
[12:44] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust what's the difference between Desktop and Alternative
[12:45] <cfhowlett> stevendumani, alternative is no longer supported in ubuntu.
[12:45] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: It would depend on which revision of the mobo you have, and that info isn't available from Linux, it'd likely be silk-screen printed on the motherboard
[12:45] <DBoyz[A]> Okay
[12:45] <stevendumani> cfhowlett does it have GNOME3.4?
[12:45] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: if it is a "V7.0" then there is a 2011-03-01 BIOS release, but for the "V1.0" mobo there isn't anything newer
[12:46] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  jeez, don't know and it isnt explained, lemme search
[12:46] <DBoyz[A]> Hm
[12:46] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: the BIOS download links on the ECS web-site are all broken, too
[12:47] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  my advice: install it and then wonder about the philosophy and concept
[12:47] <DBoyz[A]> Oh dear
[12:47] <stevendumani> lol no way MonkeyDust
[12:47]  * DBoyz[A] facepalms
[12:48] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: If possible, I'd be minded to remove the disk drive from the caddy and directly connect it to the mobo via SATA or PATA ports, as required
[12:48] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  what's 'lol' about that? try it with a live dvd, first, then decide if you want to install it
[12:49] <DBoyz[A]> TJ-: is it possible to connect this laptop hard disk to a sata port on a desktop?
[12:50] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust no lol then :) live DVD explains your point, but since the download is slow here, and I'm downloading the 3 options, that's why I said to myself let's see what u people think
[12:50] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: If it is SATA, sure
[12:50] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: provided there's a spare SATA power header from the PSU, and you have a spare SATA internal data link cable
[12:51] <DBoyz[A]> Why didn't I think of that
[12:52] <TJ-> DBoyz[A]: I have to leave now, good luck with it :)
[12:54] <DBoyz[A]> Thanks a lot!
[12:54] <cfhowlett> stevendumani,   you might very well find .torrent faster.
[12:54] <stevendumani> tester56 supposing you have 4GB RAM, 3GHz P4 CPU, and you care about performance mostly, what would u install? 14.04 or 12.04?
[12:55] <stevendumani> cfhowlett I'm using torrent, they're slower but I'm using them anyway cuz the electricity isn't stable they gonna cut it soon
[12:55] <Laban> stevendumani: Probably xubuntu on my end.
[12:56] <Laban> Oh, that wasn't you asking the question. Sorry. :)
[12:56] <eeee> stevendumani: 14.04 with a lightweight de
[12:56] <stevendumani> eeee what is de?
[12:57] <Laban> Desktop Environment
[12:57] <eeee> desktop environment, unity, lxde, xfce, etc.
[12:57] <stevendumani> eeee so the kernel of 14 is faster you think?
[12:58] <eeee> stevendumani: yeah
[12:59] <stevendumani> eeee thanks :) that's what I've been looking for
[13:00] <eeee> np :)
[13:00] <codeROOTs> hi what kind of channels are in freenode(xchat ubuntu)?

[13:12] <cfhowlett> mete_, 2 choices: less painful option, use .torrent to get the 14.04.1 ISO and clean install.  More painful option is EOLUPGRADE 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 > 14.04
[13:13] <SCHAAP137> the end of life as we know it
[13:13] <eeee> stevendumani: lol, yeah
[13:14] <mete_> thanks I think I will chose the painful option :)
[13:14] <stevendumani> cfhowlett it's impossible to upgrade from x86 to x64 right?
[13:14] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  it is
[13:14] <cfhowlett> stevendumani, upgrade?   MonkeyDust codeROOTs I'll read, but I don't think I need help surfing or doing the everyday tasks, my tasks are usually more difficult
[13:20] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  on a server level?
[13:21] <rasheed> hello guys
[13:21] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust I'm looking for getting more performance with stupid hardware, no on a desktop level, and with the need of virtualization

[13:22] <stevendumani> hi rasheed please ask your question right away cuz people don't like Arabic Coffee and lots of salamz here (well this is weird because the name is ubuntu and the logo is coffee beans) which means ooh! bunntoo!

[13:29] <sebg9393> Is it posible to get java and flash on Chromium on ubuntu gnome 64 bit?
[13:31] <codeROOTs> yes
[13:31] <codeROOTs> pepper flash
[13:31] <codeROOTs> for chromium
[13:31] <codeROOTs> you have an option on ubuntu software center do downlaod pepper flash with chromium
[13:31] <mete_> coderoots yes I tried
[13:32] <codeROOTs> but remove other flash players that you have installed
[13:32] <MonkeyDust> pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[13:32] <MonkeyDust> iirc
[13:32] <codeROOTs> like MonkeyDust says
[13:32] <sebg9393> how about java aswell?
[13:32] <sebg9393> I think i read somewhere in comments, that 64 bit wasn't supported anymore
[13:33] <mete_> coderoots it gets me Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[13:33] <codeROOTs> sebg9393 sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install icedtea-plugin
[13:34] <stevendumani> i forgot the most important question: I have a partition mounted as "/" and another as  "/home" and now I'm only gonna format the / partition. and I will need to re-use the contents of my current user home directory. will I have to manually chown them? I mean if I created a user with the same username during the new installation?
[13:34] <codeROOTs> sebg9393 you can try sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre icedtea-7-plugin to
[13:34] <sebg9393> i got those already
[13:34] <codeROOTs> it should work
[13:35] <codeROOTs> i use chromium
[13:35] <codeROOTs> and it works flawlessly
[13:35] <codeROOTs> mete_ try download the 14.04 image and make an upgrade from installation menu
[13:35] <codeROOTs> you should've done the upgrade a long time ago
[13:36] <sebg9393> codeROOTs, do you got 32 or 64 bit?
[13:36] <mete_> Ok I'm downloading.
[13:36] <codeROOTs> i got 64
[13:36] <sebg9393> according to https://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1 "this plug-in is not supported"
[13:36] <sebg9393> Okay, maybe something went wrong when i downloaded ubuntu gnome shell
[13:37] <codeROOTs> on 140.04
[13:38] <codeROOTs> sebg9393 disable npapi plugin
[13:38] <sebg9393> i got 14.04.1
[13:38] <sebg9393> lts
[13:38] <codeROOTs> about:lugins
[13:38] <sebg9393> how do i disable that
[13:38] <codeROOTs> about:plugins*
[13:38] <codeROOTs> click on details
[13:39] <codeROOTs> and there you have npapi
[13:39] <codeROOTs> disable it
[13:39] <sebg9393> hm... on chrome://plugins i only got one plugin. Chromoting Viewer
[13:39] <codeROOTs> are you shure you have pepper flash intalled?
[13:39] <codeROOTs> sure*
[13:40] <sebg9393> yes pepperflashplugin-nonfree is installed according to software center
[13:40] <sebg9393> hang on, ill try updating it
[13:40] <codeROOTs> and the pepper plugin?
[13:41] <codeROOTs> sebg9393 http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/install-pepper-flash-player-for.html
[13:41] <codeROOTs> try this
[13:41] <LiENUS> is there a way to configure ubuntu to not shut down when the battery is full but its also plugged into a ups with a dead battery?
[13:42] <sebg9393> when i did: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/install-pepper-flash-player-for.html
[13:42] <sebg9393> sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install i got Adobe Flash Plyer in my chrome:plugins
[13:42] <sebg9393> ill try the link
[13:43] <sebg9393> will i ahve to uninstall anything else, before i proceed with the link u sent me?
[13:45] <LiENUS> or maybe just disable the built in monitoring entirely temporarily so i can use apcupsd
[13:46] <codeROOTs> when you remove flashplayer from adobe use the apt-get purge
[13:46] <codeROOTs> not remove
[13:47] <sebg9393> Okay. I did what the guide said, and i didn't purge naytinh before that.
[13:48] <sebg9393> although, the /etc/chromium-browser/default didn't contain a  CHROMIUM_FLAGS=""  line
[13:49] <sebg9393> it contains the following now: http://pastebin.com/a1ULzF8Q
[13:53] <sebg9393> how do i purge the flash player? (if needed)
[13:53] <cfhowlett> sebg9393, sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-installer
[13:55] <lenx_> q
[13:55] <codeROOTs> sebg9393 use just this sudo add-apt-repository ppa:skunk/pepper-flash
[13:55] <codeROOTs> sudo apt-get update

[13:59] <sebg9393> Yes, sorryt. I don't know how i assumed that pepperflash would be connected to java
[13:59] <sebg9393> Do i need to purge/remove anything in order to install java thorugh the link you sent, correctly?
[14:00] <codeROOTs> it sais there what you have to do
[14:02] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust I found the answer (Desktop vs Alternate) just in case you were wondering
[14:02] <pentatonic> hello everyone, my computer is getting jammed even with little activity (3-4 tabs, 1 email or some other program open) it surely gets freezes when 2 browser programs are open..I did memtest last night, 16 passes returned no error. what could be the problem? (I am running 14.04.)
[14:03] <codeROOTs> pentatonic what is your configration?
[14:03] <codeROOTs> configuration*
[14:03] <MonkeyDust> stevendumani  your enthousiasm is a good basis to switch to linux... let's hear it!
[14:03] <pentatonic> codeROOTs, sorry, I didnt understand the question
[14:04] <codeROOTs> cpu, RAM?
[14:04] <pentatonic> codeROOTs, ah, all right. how can I get it listed?
[14:04] <pentatonic> uname - something?
[14:05] <codeROOTs> click on the up right corner> about this computer
[14:07] <codeROOTs> pentatonic are you still there?
[14:09] <sebg9393> I followed the guide, codeROOTs, but java is still "not supported"
[14:10] <sebg9393> it's neither showing in about:plugins
[14:10] <sebg9393> chrome://plugins*
[14:10] <codeROOTs> try a reboot
[14:10] <codeROOTs> have you installed the iced tea plugin?
[14:11] <digitsm> Hello
[14:11] <digitsm> I use xubuntu
[14:11] <sebg9393> Yes i got the icedtea plugin aswell
[14:11] <sebg9393> ill try rebooting
[14:11] <sebg9393> see you in a sec
[14:12] <digitsm> with its default music player = gmusicbrowser
[14:12] <digitsm> but it doesn't play mp3 files
[14:12] <digitsm> What should I do?
[14:12] <codeROOTs> use clementine
[14:12] <codeROOTs> digitsm
[14:15] <sebg9393> I tried to restart, java is still not supported
[14:15] <userings> digitsm, just run sudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:15] <sebg9393> nor does it appear in chrome://plugins
[14:17] <codeROOTs> idk anything else
[14:17] <codeROOTs> use chrome
[14:17] <userings> Xubuntu didn't come with pre-installed codecs due to restrictions and copyright s*its.
[14:17] <codeROOTs> do you have openjdk installed?
[14:17] <codeROOTs> 6 and 7?
[14:17] <sebg9393> only 7
[14:18] <codeROOTs> install 6 to
[14:18] <codeROOTs> i have both
[14:18] <sebg9393> OpenJDK Java 6 Runtime?
[14:18] <sebg9393> thats the name in software center at least
[14:18] <codeROOTs> yes
[14:18] <digitsm> userings: Does xubuntu-restricted-extras install all codecs?
[14:18] <cfhowlett> !info xubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:19] <codeROOTs> sebg9393 click on more info and check all options there
[14:19] <codeROOTs> for both 6 and 7
[14:19] <cfhowlett> userings, it does
[14:19] <userings> digitsm, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[14:20] <sebg9393> these are allchecked
[14:20] <digitsm> userings, And why OpenCV should be in xubuntu-restricted-extras? Isn't OpenCV open?
[14:21] <userings> OpenCV is released under a BSD license
[14:22] <userings> It's open, but it's not GNU.
[14:22] <sebg9393> ill try remove oracle java and stick to firefox, when using java applets then :-)
[14:22] <sebg9393> but thank you for your time, and for solving the flash problem :-)
[14:23] <digitsm> userings, Hmmm! Thanks
[14:23] <sebg9393> i suspect the booting-iso to be the problem. I might try again with fresh ubuntu unity install again later
[14:24] <srp> hello
[14:24] <andtorg> how can i dispose of the annoying ubuntu-one end-of-life notification (already unistalled)?
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> andtorg  in what realease and what does the notification look like?
[14:25] <raymestalez> Hey, guys! Ive got a question. It is convenient to use ctrl-k in the terminal to cut the text, but pasting this text doesnt work outside of the terminal. Is there a way to use terminal "kill ring" to copy text and then ctrl-v it in another application?
[14:26] <vitimiti> raymestalez, ctrl+shift+c for copying
[14:27] <raymestalez> Yeah, but Im trying to use ctrl-k instead
[14:27] <andtorg> MonkeyDust: 12.04 64-bit, it's a pop-up down from systray area
[14:27] <raymestalez> (More convenient, dont need to select text with a mouse)
[14:27] <lmat> What's the best way to do a listening vnc viewer? Does x11vnc do it? vino?
[14:28] <MonkeyDust> andtorg  i use 12.04 too and have never seen such notification... did you purge ubuntuone completely?
[14:29] <andtorg> MonkeyDust: i'd say yes
[14:29] <cfhowlett> MonkeyDust, uone has proven damn hard to purge.
[14:33] <MonkeyDust> andtorg  I just discovered this: sudo aptitude purge '~c'
[14:34] <booh> 14.04, gnome was working but now after some updates and manipulations, I lost my gnome... when I boot, I only avec a big X for mouse... how to have my window manager back again ?
[14:34] <H4ml3t> hi all
[14:34] <capitano> ciao
[14:34] <MonkeyDust> booh  what kind of 'some manipulations'?
[14:34] <H4ml3t> ciao capitano !
[14:36] <booh> MonkeyDust, just not have all the list... trying proprietary drivers... I just roll back my xorg.conf to generic but I just have the big X telling me I will be in low-res for this session but after "OK", always just the big x for mouse cursor...  Would like to retreive a defaut normal gnome at this moment.

[14:42] <srp> sometime ago, a new kernel was automatically installed which did not boot. I resorted to booting the previous kernel version, but when 14.04 comes out I'd like to do a dist-upgrade and I'm concerned the upgrade will also render my machine unbootable under the new Ubuntu. Can anyone help me figure out what's wrong with the kernel? . So far, I have looked at the syslogs when booting both the broken and the working kernel, but could not spot the reason why it does n
[14:42] <srp> ot boot. Any hints on what to look for?
[14:43] <srp> (I have asked this very same question on #ubuntu-kernel)
[14:43] <cellopin> frickin ubuntu upgrade broke my graphic card!!!
[14:43] <Moter8> lol
[14:43] <cfhowlett> cellopin, doubtful.
[14:44] <cellopin> it was there before the upgrade
[14:44] <cfhowlett> cellopin, and now your card is gone?  teleported away or what?
[14:44] <cellopin> yeah gone.. doesn't show up in my devices..
[14:44] <cfhowlett> cellopin, if you dual boot, boot windows.  if the card works, it is NOT gone nor is it broken.
[14:45] <cellopin> yes I did that
[14:45] <cellopin> no card on windows
[14:45] <cfhowlett> cellopin, remove, reseat the card
[14:45] <cellopin> ahw.. okay..
[14:46] <cellopin> haven't tried to open a laptop before..hehe
[14:46] <h933w> Hi. Has someone a solution for that: https://superuser.com/questions/649091/uefi-and-full-disk-encryption-with-lvm-on-luks
[14:46] <cfhowlett> cellopin, ah, that's - different
[14:47] <cellopin> what do you mean?
[14:48] <cfhowlett> cellopin,  going to be difficult to remove the card, right?
[14:48] <cellopin> yeah.. I think so..
[14:48] <cfhowlett> cellopin, what was your previous ubuntu version
[14:48] <cellopin> 12.04
[14:49] <cfhowlett> cellopin, if you still have it, boot that USB
[14:49] <cellopin> I don't have it anymore but I can download it.. this may take a little time though

[15:22] <star_prone> hi
[15:22] <booh> Ok I'm good... I find the way to have my gnome back and I'm in... now... I have onboard ATI and pciex ATI, both have 2 monitors (so, 4 monitors total) I run opensource drivers.  Is there a way to disable xinerama?  and I only have 1 card working.  With opensource, is it possible to have more accurate control and have all 4 screen without xinerama
[15:22] <tony_> same here. Are there any new apps or ppas availiable?
[15:22] <star_prone> unity is based on kde or gnome?
[15:23] <Gatis> star_prone: On Gnome 3
[15:23] <vishwaprotim_> can any1 help me regarding the rt3290 bluetooth support in ubuntu?
[15:23] <Gatis> tony_: I don't really check that
[15:23] <tony_> I am running it on an old acer netbook.
[15:24] <star_prone> so if I want to install an app that has versions for both KDE and Gnome, I should choose Gnome or it has nothing to do with unity?
[15:24] <Gatis> tony_: IM running it on old HP Compaq 6715s laptop
[15:24] <mamece2> userings: how can i see the first lines of dmesg? i cant get head to work
[15:25] <booh> Oh, I found with lspci that only the onboard card is detected... the pciex even not detected... I suppose it's bios config..
[15:25] <MonkeyDust> star_prone  unity is compiz plugin on top of gnome3
[15:26] <mintoslinu> Buongiorno
[15:26] <Gatis> MonkeyDust: Is there a way to remove left panel?
[15:26] <MonkeyDust> Gatis  install other DE, logout, switch, login

[15:28] <tony_> well thanks anyway gatis I appreciate the chat.

[15:33] <tore__> buonasera non riesco a masterizzare su lubuntu file avi ho provato xfburn ,brasero. k3b ma niente ,ho sempre masterizzato immagini iso e dati con successo ma con i file avi niente da fare.
[15:37] <ubuntu-studio> ?
[15:37] <booh> Where is the xorg.conf file in 14.04 ??
[15:37] <booh> I don't have my xorf.conf in /etc/X11/ but it's working..
[15:38] <SCHAAP137> the files are spread out in /etc/X11/conf.d/ i thought
[15:38] <DJones> booh: Recent versions of Ubuntu don't necessarily need an xorg.conf unless its for specific hardware
[15:38] <mamece2> can someone help me locating the problem with my ata3 device
[15:39] <booh> DJones So where is the video conf ?  I need to modify it to disable xinerama
[15:40] <DJones> booh: I'm not sure where those settings are set without xorg.conf
[15:40] <booh> If I put xorg.conf it will take it?
[15:43] <pentatonic> I was talking to codeROOTs about my problem with freezes happening even with low activity. he asked me to install cpufreq, do rfkill list, and then  run 'echo iwconfig wlan0 power off | sudo tee /etc/pm/power.d/wireless' and reboot...while I rebooted, he/she was gone. so did my problem now..no freeze with the same programs and more. I'm therefore just curious, what was the problem and how was it solved?
[15:44] <SCHAAP137> sounds like a power-management issue with regard to the WLAN adapter, pentatonic
[15:45] <pentatonic> guess it was, like he did, something with wifi?
[15:45] <SCHAAP137> iwconfig wlan0 power off = turn off the main wlan device
[15:45] <SCHAAP137> tee makes an empty textfile i think, like touch
[15:46] <linxcat> in the ubuntu firewall ui, in the listening report section, it will still show me which applications are listening on what ports even if those ports are blocked my the firewall rules right?
[15:46] <SCHAAP137> yes linxcat i believe so
[15:47] <booh> If I put an xorg.conf, after starting lightdm, ubuntu delete it...
[15:48] <SCHAAP137> what is the problem you're trying to fix, booh
[15:48] <pentatonic> SCHAAP137, yes, he'd also told about wifi power saving..can I now assume that the issue is solved?
[15:48] <SCHAAP137> pentatonic, i guess so, if the issue doesn't show it's probably not there anymore
[15:48] <SCHAAP137> hard to tell until it happens againm
[15:49] <pentatonic> I was familiar with ram, hdd, graphic card causing freezes, but didnt know even wifi might cause it

[16:03] <lfrlucas> nfs clients show this message, and the only solution is to reboot nfs server (zeus)
[16:03] <lfrlucas> any idea? it seems an kernel related bug...
[16:04] <pentatonic> SCHAAP137, the freeze came (that's why i was gone :)) but much later when more programs were opened..I never worked with too many programs open, but I think the machine could handle more earlier..can this wifi issue a hardware problem?
[16:04] <pentatonic> be a hardware problem?*
[16:05] <SCHAAP137> it could be

[16:16] <netlar> SchrodingersScat: I want to like it, but just kinda clunky for me
[16:18] <SchrodingersScat> netlar: I think there was another one out there, but I don't remember the name, apt-cache search finance brought up a couple options, seems there's a few for kde

[16:28] <stevendumani> eeee maybe you're familiar with this: my computer is connected to the internet with a wireless card, and I have another router that i wanna use with a wired connection, the problem is when i connect the wired connection i lose internet connectivity. can anyone please tell me what can I do to prevent this?
[16:30] <alive4ever> You should fix routing configuration. Tell network manager to not use wired connection as default route.
[16:30] <NeO--o_> Hi guys
[16:32] <NeO--o_> I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on a SSD drive and would now like to back up the whole SSD with all partitions (/, /home, /boot) on an external USB hard drive.
[16:32] <NeO--o_> Which program would zou recommend to do this?
[16:32] <MonkeyDust> NeO--o_  rsync is fast and verstaile
[16:32] <stevendumani> how can i do that alive4ever i don't see any "default route" setting in network manager! (still on ubuntu 12.04)
[16:32] <hashmaster> so a buddy of mine is trying to install ubuntu 14.04 on his laptop. it has no ethernet port, and his wireless card isnot supported out the box. he didnt want to install untill he figures out his internet situation. he cant usb teather with his iphone to download the non free firm ware. I am unsure of what chipset his wireless card is, but i downloaded the nonfree firmware tarball for "jesse". would this be the right firmware tarball, and wo
[16:32] <hashmaster> uld i need to extract it first or could i just place the tarball on his install medium
[16:33] <MonkeyDust> NeO--o_  I use rsync -avv --progress --delete [source] [dest]
[16:33] <NeO--o_> MonkeyDust: One thing to keep in mind is that I dont want the backup to overwrite/format my complete external harddrive as I am storing other data on there
[16:33] <Beldar> NeO--o_, Besides a rsync which you can run when needed I would clone it with clonezilla
[16:34] <MonkeyDust> NeO--o_  same here, backup to a folder on the external drive
[16:35] <alive4ever> stevendumani: try experimenting with various network manager configuration, especially editing the wired connection profile to just use the network as resource only, without defining a default route.
[16:35] <SchrodingersScat> NeO--o_: you can use flag -n or --dry-run to see how it would do things
[16:35] <Beldar> NeO--o_, the clone will go to a folder you make as well
[16:35] <NeO--o_> I assume Clonezilla might be a bit more user-friendly ?
[16:36] <Beldar> NeO--o_, Both are about the same really
[16:36] <Beldar> I use both myself
[16:36] <NeO--o_> With Clonezilla I would have to create a boot CD first, correct?
[16:36] <stevendumani> alive4ever there's no route settings at all in any connection settings, and I need help setting one if there's need to any
[16:36] <Beldar> NeO--o_, It has a boot iso yes
[16:37] <Beldar> I have it on a mutli loaded usb with other OS
[16:37] <NeO--o_> Or can I install it locally without booting from a CD?
[16:38] <hashmaster> hahaha found about unpacking and placing in the firmware directory. so nvm that. but is the "JESSE"  the correct tarball or should i get him "wheezy" or :"sid"
[16:38] <Beldar> NeO--o_, You could set it up to boot from grub using grml
[16:38] <MonkeyDust> hashmaster  wheezy and sid are debian, this is debian
[16:38] <MonkeyDust> hashmaster  wheezy and sid are debian, this is ubuntu*
[16:38] <hashmaster> Yes i also know sid and jesse are considered unstable, but thats what the stock lubuntu i am running is using as a source list
[16:38] <hashmaster> yes
[16:38] <NeO--o_> Ok, I recently switched from Windows 7, which is a bit more straight forward regarding images
[16:39] <NeO--o_> Anyway, thanks for the info
[16:39] <Beldar> NeO--o, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot In the end though you want to be prepared for anything including HD failure.
[16:39] <alive4ever> stevendumani: try reading this forum thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1474098. It's similar to your situation.

[17:09] <kostkon> Basketball, use the official ppa https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[17:09] <rypervenche> Basketball: Personally I would get it from the latest Ubuntu or maybe a PPA.  There is "SID", WHEEZY", and "JESSE". I know sid and jesse are unstable, wheezy is stable, buy my fresh install of lubuntu uses the "sid/jesse" so i figured he should be ok with jesse would i be wrong
[17:11] <OerHeks> hashmaster, i would try http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-firmware-nonfree
[17:12] <rypervenche> hashmaster: Ubuntu doesn't use Debian repositories. You should be getting it from the Ubuntu repos.
[17:12] <stevendumani> so guys, I'm reading this, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager and it looks like this is the way it is supposed to work (the network manager tries to reach the internet using the wired connection when it's plugged) now what I want it to do is stop being so smart and keep on using wlan0!
[17:12] <OerHeks> !offline
[17:12] <OerHeks> i would use apt-on-cd
[17:12] <hashmaster> well its for a friend who wants to install ubuntu but has no ethernet, and his wireless car is not supported out the box
[17:13] <enkeron> hi
[17:13] <pgar23> hashmaster: you should google "ubuntu + wireless card"
[17:13] <pgar23> there are a ton of support docs in the forums
[17:13] <pgar23> i had the same issue with my asus laptop
[17:13] <OerHeks> !google
[17:14] <OerHeks> try to get the ID of the card first, hashmaster
[17:14] <OerHeks> lspci or lsusb should tell you
[17:15] <hashmaster> pgar23  i know of the issues with wireless and linux, my first step is usually get the nonfree firmware then trouble shoot from there
[17:15] <pgar23> O i c
[17:15] <hashmaster> OerHeks i told him i needed that but he didnt have his laptop on friday so i couldnt check anything
[17:16] <stevendumani> MonkeyDust sorry for the connectivity problem I'm back so I was saying this is Alternate12.04 vs Desktop12.04 http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/precise/release/
[17:16] <hashmaster> my linux skills grow everyday, but im still a newb. i just find it funny that his new laptop dosent have an ethernet port
[17:17] <pgar23> hashmaster: that is not surprising, most new laptops do not have ethernet jacks anymore. Take for instance new macbooks
[17:17] <pgar23> missing optical drives is common these days too for some reason
[17:18] <Beldar> hashmaster, ethernet to usb adapters are cheap
[17:18] <pgar23> I would like to still play CDs/DVDs/Blu-Rays on my laptop that I just paid $1000 bucks for, imho :D
[17:18] <hashmaster> well optical drives are kinda understandable but not hardwired ethernet thats crazy and i wouldnt doubt it from mac
[17:19] <havarka> hi all! i need help out with lubuntu, when i click on torrent-magnet link in google chrome it doesnt open qbittorrent but instead just new empty chrome window, do you have any suggestions?
[17:19] <hashmaster> Beldar i suggested a usp wireless adapter with native linux support, sisnt know the had ethernet to usb tho
[17:19] <Beldar> havarka, I should ask you open with.
[17:20] <rhooke> havarka have you tried with chromium?
[17:20] <havarka> no I didnt, dont have chromium
[17:20] <pgar23> havarka: are u sure it does not open a new tab and has actually opened the magnet link in qbittorrent?
[17:20] <havarka> pgar23, i am sure
[17:20] <SchrodingersScat> i would just copy the magnet, paste into client of your choice
[17:20] <pgar23> I use transmission for downloading torrents
[17:20] <OerHeks> any browser needs to download the magnet link first, security level.
[17:20] <hashmaster> oh my spelling errors, stupid arthritis
[17:21] <havarka> SchrodingersScat, thats not solution
[17:21] <pgar23> when I click a magnet link, it opens new tab but also alerts me (usually by flashing) that the download is waiting in transmission
[17:21] <stevendumani> whoever sent me this link thank you very much, i think its gonna work for me too :) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1474098
[17:22] <havarka> pgar23, i think it also worked with transmission, but with qbittorent or deluge it`s just doesn`t work.
[17:22] <pgar23> y not use transmission then, havarka?
[17:22] <havarka> OerHeks, ok, but firefox just send it straight to the torrent client
[17:23] <Beldar> havarka, deluge does magnet.
[17:23] <havarka> pgar23, cause when you have like 50 torrents downloading, its GUI is not as good as those others
[17:23] <pgar23> havarka: that sounds like a browser issue. Certain applications/features do not work well with Google Chrome from my experience
[17:23] <havarka> pgar23, chromium shouldnt have this problem?!
[17:24] <pgar23> for example, I configure cisco switches and voip routers for a living, Chrome cannot process the changes
[17:24] <havarka> Beldar, any good torrent client supports magnet..
 pgar23, i think it also worked with transmission, but with qbittorent or deluge it`s just doesn`t work.  Is what you said.
[17:24] <xangua> havarka: transmission, comes pre-installed
[17:25] <havarka> xangua, i know, but I dont like its interface
[17:25] <rhooke> havarka, I think chromium is better than chrome
[17:25] <havarka> rhooke, pros and cons?
[17:25] <hashmaster> hey OerHeks i downloaded the firmware tarball from the site provided, i should just be able to unpack into the firmware folder on his usb and all should be good, Right?
[17:25] <pgar23> I dont recommend chrome at all
[17:25] <pgar23> use firefox
[17:25] <jidi> I am seek  for a partner
[17:25] <havarka> pgar23, not even chromium?
[17:26] <Beldar> jidi, Partner?
[17:26] <pgar23> havarka: not even Chromium! Use FF.
[17:26] <havarka> pgar23, i don`t want to use FF, have reasons
[17:27] <Farva> good morning world!
[17:27] <Farva> so I have a DNS listening problem
[17:27] <OerHeks> hashmaster, no. i posted a url which provides a .deb
[17:27] <rhooke> well firefox is nice but a bit big
[17:27] <pgar23> havarka: I hear ya, but to "solve" your problem, you may want to consider alternatives
[17:27] <SchrodingersScat> havarka: have you read through any of this? seems to imply that xdg-mime might be setting what to open with magnets: http://askubuntu.com/questions/108925/how-to-tell-chrome-what-to-do-with-a-magnet-link
[17:28] <pgar23> they say: "Trying the same thiing over-and-over, expecting different results is INSANITY"
[17:28] <Farva> I have a DNS pointing at my server, and I can connect to the system IP just fine, but once I try to connect to the DNS or one of its vIP's we time out after a minute or two
[17:28] <obsinc> hello
[17:28] <Farva> when I nslookup the DNS, it says it is pointing at some completely different IP
[17:28] <jidi> I am seek  for a partner
[17:28] <havarka> SchrodingersScat, i tried something but didn`t work, will look up the link
[17:28] <Farva> even though I know the IP is correct on cloudfare side
[17:28] <Farva> so how do I force the DNS to listen?
[17:28] <pgar23> Farva: can u ping the DNS server IP?
[17:28] <RedheadedCupcake> Is there someone in here that can help me get Adobe Flash Player working in Chromium?
[17:28] <Farva> I can
[17:29] <Farva> the server IP, numeric pings fine
[17:29] <Farva> I can ping the DNS too
[17:29] <havarka> Guys, chromium is not a solution has the same issue like FF
[17:29] <xangua> !ot | jidi
[17:29] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, I would use pepper flash more up to date
[17:29] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake Are you using 14.04?
[17:29] <RedheadedCupcake> Can you help me get pepper flash? Yes. 14.04
[17:30] <Farva> whats strange is, that I can connect via DNS to the vIP but after a minute I time out
[17:30] <Farva> and when I nslookup, it says that DNS is not pointing at our IP-which obviously it is, becuase I connect to our server with it before I time out
[17:30] <hashmaster> OerHeks theres two links on the side of the page for the source package in .dsc and .tar.gz, grabbed the tarball, should i have used the big box inthe center of the page for the .deb, ive downloaded it but am a little unsure what to do with it on his system install medium
[17:30] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[17:31] <Poppabear> Ubuntu Server 12.04 .. Whats the best easiest way to add multiple ips to an interface and to remain permenant ?
[17:31] <hashmaster> do i just add it to the source list like with a cd source, or would there something different i would have to do
[17:31] <Dynamit> Poppabear: vlan is the solution
[17:32] <OerHeks> hashmaster, if you want to build yourself, you' ll need tools too
[17:32] <OerHeks> hashmaster, i am not going to help with that, i gave a link with the ubuntu package.deb
[17:32] <RedheadedCupcake> Ok. Did it
[17:32] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, Than run sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install
[17:33] <Poppabear> vlan ? Why would a Valn be the solution ? Why can't i just add address to an interface thats already there .. i have a ipv6 /48 and want to add them to HE's tunnel interface ...
[17:33] <hashmaster> OerHeks No i dont wanna build, just wanted to be able to give him the nonfree firmware to see if his card and some other minor issues he had were fixed by it
[17:33] <RedheadedCupcake> Nothing happened
[17:34] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, Try chromium now, it had to be closed at some point after all this.
[17:35] <havarka> SchrodingersScat, so which answer should I try, from all those?!
[17:35] <Dynamit> interfaces is no way to add several IP-addres to what I know of, except for IPv6 and that is the IPv6-range handle it self
[17:35] <RedheadedCupcake> It's working
[17:35] <Beldar> cool
[17:35] <RedheadedCupcake> Now is there a Netflix fix? haha
[17:35] <havarka> SchrodingersScat, http://askubuntu.com/questions/311537/torrent-magnet-links-open-new-window-but-not-transmission my case
[17:35] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, either chrome+html5 or pipelight
[17:35] <OerHeks> netflix can use html5
[17:36] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, Yeah Amazon prime. ;)
[17:36] <RedheadedCupcake> what is pipelight
[17:36] <uRock> RedheadedCupcake, To get netflix working, go here http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/08/netflix-linux-html5-support-plugins
[17:36] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, if you want to continue using chromium, then your only choice is pipelight
[17:36] <RedheadedCupcake> Word. So lets do this pipelight deal.
[17:37] <Ko29> Does somebody know the anwer for this question? https://superuser.com/questions/649091/uefi-and-full-disk-encryption-with-lvm-on-luks
[17:37] <Ko29> *answer
[17:37] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/08/pipelight-use-silverlight-in-your-linux.html
[17:38] <pdo_fn14> Firefox will be using html5 as default player for youtube and soon will be ditching flash for a long time. :))
[17:38] <hannasanarion> Okay, I need some help, my computer won't boot.
[17:39] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, hmm not sure if its latest version still works with chromium
[17:39] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, you are probably out of luck with chromium as far as netflix goes
[17:40] <hannasanarion> here's the sequence of events that led up to this point: got a new mb and processor (old was amd, new is intel), everything works fine, switched to windows partition, doesn't work, reinstall windows, accidentally instal 32 bit, run boot-repair from live USB, now I get a black screen after GRUB
[17:40] <blaaa> In what .deb can I find the default /usr/share/applications/defaults.list or /usr/share/applications/mimeapps.list ?
[17:40] <Farva> I am having a network issue with my server, we can connect to the system IP just fine and stay connected for days, but if we try to connect with the vIP or using a DNS on our system ip, or a DNS on a vIP we time out in a minute or less
[17:40] <RedheadedCupcake> I'll let you know if it works here in a minute
[17:41] <blaaa> for kubuntu
[17:41] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, you can always have a fallback browser just for netflix :D  either chrome of ffox
[17:41] <Farva> do I have to configure the nameservers on my side?
[17:41] <hannasanarion> RedheadedCupcake: or you can use the netflix package
[17:41] <kostkon> hannasanarion, or right yeah
[17:42] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, there's a third option, the compholio netflix-desktop
[17:42] <kostkon> oh*
[17:44] <RedheadedCupcake> It didn't work. The EULA messed up my terminal and I couldn't accept it.
[17:45] <Xytron> hello
[17:45] <hannasanarion> Anyone around to help with my boot issue?
[17:45] <RedheadedCupcake> hannasnarion, how do I get this netflix package you speak of
[17:46] <Farva> why would nslookup return a bogus IP when I set the DNS otherwise?
[17:46] <Xytron> NEW HERE
[17:46] <Beldar> hannasanarion, Possibly, details are needed.
[17:46] <hannasanarion> RedheadedCupcake: search for "netflix-desktop" it's a complete package that installs wine, puts firefox in wine with a silverlight emulator and lets you run netflix
[17:47] <RedheadedCupcake> where do I search for this?
[17:47] <alive4ever> nslookup is deprecated. Try looking up dns using dig command.
[17:47] <Xytron> i got 14.04 and i downloaded some things i fallowed and my when i go to netflix .com it works fine
[17:48] <Xytron> hanna what boot issue?
[17:48] <Beldar> Xytron, Tab complete nicks
[17:48] <Farva> Some one in here has to be able to help
[17:49] <Xytron> whats up farva
[17:49] <Farva> I am having an issue with my DNS
[17:49] <pgar23> Farva: pretty sure you need to edit the file with VI and manually assign those IPs
[17:49] <Farva> I did pgar
[17:49] <Xytron> what DNS issues?
[17:49] <hannasanarion> Xytron: I can't boot into ubuntu. I go through GRUB and then black screen
[17:49] <Farva> whats happening is, when I try to connect to the server using a DNS, we time out
[17:49] <MonkeyDust> Farva  keep your question in one line please, that's easier to read and repeat
[17:49] <Farva> so I nslookup the DNS
[17:49] <pgar23> Farva: well, there ya go, that is the extent of assistance I can provide. Sorry
[17:50] <Beldar> !nomodeset | hannasanarion
[17:50] <Farva> when I nslookup, it is returning an IP I did not define in my DNS settings on cloudfare, how can I configure this so that my DNS is reading correctly?
[17:50] <Xytron> u may need to run some test at the stage of grb
[17:51] <Xytron> LOL IM SO NEW HERE, but im sure i can help people i guess itl have to be one by one
[17:51] <hashmaster> so i found the "build a custom Ubuntu installation medium" article Based off what i read i should be able to add the nonfree firmware and any additional drivers and such along with updates required etc, does that sound right?
[17:51] <RedheadedCupcake> kostkon, do you know anything about maybe making my speakers louder? They seem pretty quiet for this laptop but I don't have anything to base it off of as it had Ubuntu on it when I got it.
[17:51] <Farva> the A record is correct, the SRV record is correct, but when I try to connect the DNS to one of our vIP's or our system IP it comes back as some unknown IP on nslookup, BUT I can still connect to the server for a short time before timing out
[17:52] <MonkeyDust> Farva  what's cloudfare? define your DNS in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base
[17:52] <Farva> looking into it now
[17:52] <Beldar> Xytron, Be sure you know what you are addressing is all, there are plenty here who help regularly, don't confuse users. ;)
[17:52] <havarka> so when i do sudo apt-get update - get this -- W: GPG error: https://download.01.org trusty InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A902DDA375E52366
[17:52] <havarka>  -- how to remove with from source.list?!
[17:52] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, try checking your "hardware" alsa volume levels with alsamixer. Also, in sound prefs yo should be able to increase your volume above the 100% threshold
[17:53] <EntranceJew> I did do-package-upgrade and there seems to be some negative side effects with my apache and php configurations, namely PHP requires are failing in strange places
[17:53] <Farva> MonkeyDust: that file is empty
[17:53] <RedheadedCupcake> kostkon, I will try the sound prefs first
[17:53] <Farva> MonkeyDust: cloudfare is just an added protection to run your DNS through
[17:53] <EntranceJew> I think during the install it mentioned that it failed to restart / install certain files related to apache and php and I wanted to know if there was a way to bulk-reinstall/reconfigure those apps without finding each one manually
[17:54] <Beldar> EntranceJew, Any 3rd party or ppa repos?
[17:54] <RedheadedCupcake> kostkon, definitely works
[17:54] <MonkeyDust> Farva  yes, sudo -e /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base ... add: nameserver [your DNS address] and save ... then: sudo resolvconf -u
[17:54] <EntranceJew> Beldar: according to the installer, those were disabled before the process begain
[17:54] <kostkon> RedheadedCupcake, :)
[17:54] <EntranceJew> began*
[17:54] <Farva> kk
[17:55] <MonkeyDust> Farva  is that a server?
[17:55] <Beldar> EntranceJew,  That may be but you have out of the ubunt repo packages
[17:55] <Farva> it is a server
[17:55] <MonkeyDust> !find cloudfare
[17:55] <treats> Last time I installed Ubuntu, I was surprised (in a bad way) with all the extra stuff.  Amazon lookups, etc.. is there a 'ubuntu desktop minimal'?
[17:55] <MonkeyDust> Farva  there's also #ubuntu-server
[17:55] <Farva> oh, you mean cloudfar
[17:55] <havarka> treats - try lubuntu
[17:55] <Farva> cloudfare is a DNS system tool, you work through their website
[17:56] <Farva> cloudfare.com
[17:56] <EntranceJew> Beldar: I included some sources from out-of-ubuntu but none of them were php related iirc, I didn't understand your question the first time
[17:56] <Beldar> EntranceJew, you should have run ppa-purge before the upgrade.
[17:56] <MonkeyDust> Farva  sounds complicated, better use the procedure i just suggested
[17:56] <Beldar> EntranceJew, direct packages or dependencies outside the repos are an issue is all.
[17:57] <EntranceJew> I see. Well, what can I do now about everything? I fixed the 000-default.conf that got merged in incorrectly but my established sites are still messed up.
[17:57] <Farva> its really not, you just plugin your SRV record, then your A record, point your DNS to the IP and thats it, its a DDoS buffer and they offer other securities
[17:57] <Beldar> EntranceJew, I would reload the image/clone and removethe extras ans try again
[17:57] <Beldar> and*
[17:58] <havarka> treats, or Ubuntu Gnome
[17:58] <treats> i'll give lubuntu a shot
[17:58] <MonkeyDust> Farva  type /j #ubuntu-server, better ask there
[17:58] <treats> I just need a lightweight desktop to move around in a VM
[17:58] <MonkeyDust> treats  i use lxde for my vm
[17:59] <Farva> MonkeyDust: thank you!
[17:59] <havarka> treats, lubuntu is amazing for this, i consumes by me only 230MB RAM after startup, its quick as hell
[17:59] <Beldar> EntranceJew, 12.04 had support for 2.5 years or so anyway.
[18:00] <treats> ldxe looks very interesting.  gonna go with lubuntu as it's on the top ten on distrowatch
[18:00] <EntranceJew> yeah I was going to do a rebuild and migrate to 14 but then I was prompted when I logged in to fix something
[18:00] <EntranceJew> and thought "what could possibly go wrong"
[18:01] <treats> thanks guys! MonkeyDust havarka
[18:02] <havarka> treats, np i was looking for right *ubuntu and this is the best :) regarding performance
[18:02] <Beldar> EntranceJew, Famous last words. ;)
[18:03] <EntranceJew> yep ;)
[18:03] <hashmaster> treats im running lubuntu 14.04 on a mini 1010 with only 1 Gig of ram and it runns smooth as butter, i can run more at once then i could with xp or 7 and my comp dosent get nearly as hot
[18:04] <Beldar> EntranceJew, I rsync and clone everything, my ego does not allow me to ask for help.
[18:06] <havarka> hashmaster, could you post screenshot of your desktop?
[18:07] <Guardians> testpost...
[18:07] <kostkon> !test | Guardians
[18:07] <Guardians> Alrighty! :)
[18:07] <MonkeyDust> Guardians  it works
[18:08] <Guardians> Yo Dustman.. its all good.
[18:09] <Guardians> :)
[18:09] <crippledmonk> good day ubuntu'ers, hope all is well.
[18:09] <Guardians> So, i want to begin with asking why the default settings in gnome is left handed nowdays ?
[18:10] <MonkeyDust> Guardians  this is the support channel, that question would be for #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:10] <Guardians> crippledmonk: Its rather good id say, the software is progressing in a neat fashion :)
[18:10] <Beldar> Guardians, Do you mean the left panel in unity?
[18:11] <Beldar> the window controls left side?
[18:11] <Guardians> Beldar: Naah. On a new install the min,max etc button in windows land on the left as opposed to the right.
[18:11] <Guardians> Yes
[18:12] <Beldar> Guardians, Not sure, it can be switched in dconf though
[18:13] <Beldar> gconf in 12.04
[18:13] <Guardians> Yeah, i know.. but its yet another thing you have to change before an Ubunty system is usable for about 85% of the people and im not sure thats leveled well.
[18:13] <jorge> a little bsd never hurt anyone
[18:13] <MonkeyDust> Guardians  please restrict yourself to support questions, no discussions here
[18:14] <Beldar> Guardians, 85% is an opinion, and not really ubuntu support maybe you would like #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:14] <havarka> SchrodingersScat so which answer to follow, there are so many?!
[18:15] <marvin-hh> Guardians: the reason is that Ubuntu developers are satanists.
[18:15] <Guardians> Gnome decided oddly i think. Mr. Monkey It can be well worth adding these types of things to the Gnome control center i think.
[18:15] <MonkeyDust> Guardians  please restrict yourself to support questions, no discussions here
[18:15] <SchrodingersScat> havarka: I would read the man pages of anything be fore I ran it, and start from the top rated going down.
[18:16] <Guardians> marvin-hh: Naah, i think they just wanted you to think about others in some way. Pretty complicated stuff and its rather ill defined to some extent. Good comment though.
[18:16] <havarka> SchrodingersScat, i see, ok
[18:16] <marvin-hh> Guardians: I don't know anyone who hasn't switched that setting.
[18:17] <Basketball> how do i change the icons of libre writer
[18:17] <Basketball> i have the .svg i want to use
[18:17] <Basketball> where do i put it
[18:17] <bazhang> !ot | Guardians marvin-hh
[18:17] <veryhappy> hey guys, i have an msi ge60-20ei745fd notebook and installed ubuntu 12.04 x64. i can't get my graphics card to work as expected. the used graphics card is an geforce gtx 765m. furthermore i also couldn't get my wine to work by now. help is appreciated. thank you. :)
[18:18] <Guardians> I knew one person who did it, but he is not with us anymore. So its very important, but i think it can be easier by adding an install alternative "Are you left or right handed y/n"..
[18:18] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: did you get a written contract from nvidia saying that it would work on Linux?
[18:18] <veryhappy> marvin-hh: nope? why
[18:19] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: why would you expect that it works then?
[18:19] <veryhappy> marvin-hh: we don't wanna bitch about nvidia's drivers now, don't we?
[18:19] <OerHeks> gtx 765m sounds like optimus
[18:19] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: they distribute some drivers on their website, but they don't actually say that you can return your device if it doesn't work, do they?
[18:19] <jorge> will there ever be a ubuntu/bsd edition?
[18:20] <veryhappy> marvin-hh: well, can you provide a useful suggestion?
[18:20] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: no, it's not bitching about their drivers; it's a policy thing. They don't actually support Linux.
[18:20] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: as such, there is no reason to expect that it will work.
[18:20] <veryhappy> marvin-hh: got you
[18:20] <theadmin> jorge: No plans for that whatsoever
[18:20] <MonkeyDust> marvin-hh  try to be helpful, please
[18:21] <veryhappy> jorge: maybe you are a little bitch with a micropenis too :P
[18:21] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: having said that, I would install 14.04.1 and try again.
[18:21] <OerHeks> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Basic_Setup_for_13.10_and_later
[18:21] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: and then I would get the drivers from the nvidia website and try again.
[18:21] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: as I don't have any confidence in the GUI tools Ubuntu offers.
[18:22] <OerHeks> veryhappy ^ ^
[18:22] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: additionally, look in Xorg.0.log
[18:22] <veryhappy> marvin-hh: i wanted to stick with ubuntu 12.04 by now, because i'm on vacation and only have wifi here and no ethernet...
[18:23] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: ok, that's a bad place to be in. Same advice then. Go to nvidia.com, read the instructions, and go for it.
[18:23] <crippledmonk> veryhappy: no guarantee this will work but here's a quick guide which worked for me in the past. MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU, but it did for me. about 1/2 way down the page. http://tclinux.weebly.com/
[18:23] <rypervenche> How are these people not getting banned? O_o
[18:23] <marvin-hh> I dumped nvidia, because I was tired of compiling stuff.
[18:23] <OerHeks> don' t go to nvidia, that is for sure. see the bumblebee wiki
[18:24] <marvin-hh> OerHeks: why not? At least that has always worked back when I still had nvidia hardware.
[18:24] <veryhappy> so you guys want to tell me that nvidia provide buggy drivers?
[18:24] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: no, I am telling you that there is no actually supported driver for nvidia devices.
[18:24] <MonkeyDust> veryhappy  nvidia and linux are not the best of friends
[18:24] <OerHeks> marvin-hh, because that card is an dual gpu issue
[18:24] <rypervenche> veryhappy: Regardless, you should be able to get it to work. Don't listen to them.
[18:24] <OerHeks> gtx 765m is optimus
[18:25] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: by "support" I mean that you can return the card and not have the retailer laugh at you.
[18:25] <RedheadedCupcake> So can someone help me with this netflix issue?
[18:25] <veryhappy> so they want to keep a good image though they don't fit together, it figures!
[18:27] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: you should really be directing this at nvidia.
[18:27] <marvin-hh> veryhappy: nvidia does not have a good image.
[18:27] <crippledmonk> RedheadedCupcake: this worked for me. http://itsfoss.com/netflix-ubuntu-1404-desktop-app/
[18:27] <MonkeyDust> veryhappy  what was your initial question?
[18:28] <veryhappy> MonkeyDust: i wanted to get my graphics card to run, but don't know which driver i should use, and so i was asking.
[18:29] <Guardians>  veryhappy: Do you only get a terminal prompt, not an X window system ?
[18:30] <Guardians>  veryhappy: Or is the OpenGL for gaming not kicking in ?
[18:30] <veryhappy> Guardians: i go for the second line
[18:30] <veryhappy> Guardians: wine don't work...
[18:31] <vjdavid> nil
[18:31] <Guardians>  veryhappy: glxgears
[18:32] <Guardians>  veryhappy: From a terminal, what does it output ?
[18:32] <RedheadedCupcake> crippledmonk, This is what it's saying in my terminal when I run the command sudo apt-get update  http://pastebin.com/8vt6aBpN
[18:34] <Guma> I have small ARM board running 14.04 server. But it does not have CDC_ACM build in it. Can I build module alone and install it? Can anyone help?
[18:34] <veryhappy> Guardians: how can i get pastebinit to copy all lines not just the second? 1&2> or how was the pipe command?
[18:34] <Guardians> So in #ubuntu you can ask questions and someone can answer them but noone can really introduce a new question ?
[18:35] <Guardians> whereis Ubuntu dev ...
[18:35] <Basketball> OerHeks,  i installed libreoffice 4.3 from the deb how can i remove it
[18:35] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, Did you stop any upgrades or have the software center or synaptic open?
[18:35] <MonkeyDust> Guardians  who or what are you looking for?
[18:35] <xZise> Hi is it possible to determine why samba denied access? /var/log/samba is pretty empty :/
[18:35] <RedheadedCupcake> Nothing is open that I know of and I am not doing any upgrades
[18:36] <Guardians> MonkeyDust: To get updated a bit on what things we can code or adjust.
[18:36] <MonkeyDust> Guardians  i guess #ubuntu-offtopic is where you want to be
[18:38] <havarka> guys, after sudo apt-get update, i get this W: GPG error: https://download.01.org trusty InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A902DDA375E52366
[18:38] <havarka>  how to get rid of it?
[18:38] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, This can happen if you stop an upgrade while running, look at the link a reboot might be easiest. http://askubuntu.com/questions/15433/unable-to-lock-the-administration-directory-var-lib-dpkg-is-another-process
[18:39] <RedheadedCupcake> Beldar Let me reboot and rejoin and we will see.
[18:39] <Guardians> MonkeyDust: Dont know those. I'll fix this on Debian and with the upsteamers instead. Btw, can i chat freely in social (beeing sweet that is) ?
[18:39] <OerHeks> havarka, what source did you add?
[18:41] <havarka> OerHeks, many :-/ dont know
[18:42] <OerHeks> havarka, good luck then.
[18:42] <havarka> OerHeks there is no way, how to do it?
[18:44] <OerHeks> this channel supports official packages, even private PPA' s are not official supported here. if you even don' t know what you added, don' t ask us what to do
[18:45] <havarka> OerHeks, sorry, just wanted to get help, no need to be harsh
[18:46] <tonyt> irc is serios business on freenode lol
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> tonyt  other channels are more for fun and social chat
[18:48] <kudakwashe> is it possible to use WhatsApp in ubuntu (it's a messaging app for mobile phones,very popular on Android to share files, video, photos and plain text messages. I think it has over a billion users)
[18:48] <teste> oi
[18:48] <ikonia> kudakwashe: there is no whatsapp for linux
[18:48] <kudakwashe> maybe using an android emulator (but whatsapp requires sms verification and a SIM)
[18:49] <ikonia> kudakwashe: so "no" would be the answer
[18:49] <kudakwashe> ikonia: but inside an android emulator, running on an gnu/linux distro in this case ubuntu it could be possible
[18:49] <ikonia> kudakwashe: can that emulator interact directly with hardware ?
[18:49] <Guardians> kudakwashe: Yes, entirely
[18:50] <kudakwashe> ikonia: i don't think you understand hardware and software
[18:50] <ikonia> kudakwashe: I'm pretty sure I do
[18:50] <RedheadedCupcake> Beldar I am back
[18:51] <Beldar> RedheadedCupcake, Cool, the issue the same?
[18:51] <kudakwashe> ikonia: okay then
[18:52] <Guardians> Nothing is ever impossible. This thing is just a matter of finding a gui interface coder and a hardware coder. Not very hard to do, but they have to like the service as well. But some people always do get things done.
[18:55] <kudakwashe> so apparently it does work, others have done it, after the sms verification fails all you do is ask for a phone verification and it runs like any other andoroid app inside the emulator
[18:55] <kudakwashe> android sdk
[18:57] <OerHeks> kudakwashe, the app might run in android sdk, but not connected.
[18:57] <kudakwashe> okay then people in the ubuntu forums are lying saying they've done it
[18:58] <OerHeks> example?
[18:58] <Guardians> kudakwashe: Id really like a thing like this. Video where most people hides from the cameras isnt very productive anyhow (Somewhat counterproductive i think).
[18:58] <kudakwashe> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2036658
[18:59] <kudakwashe> Guardians: i have no idea what you're talking about
[19:00] <kudakwashe> i've found several other claims in the ubuntu forums saying they're using whatsapp
[19:00] <kudakwashe> so...
[19:00] <OerHeks> kudakwashe, answer #3 " I can;t remember the exact step...."  ?
[19:00] <MonkeyDust> kudakwashe  all attempts failed, is what i read on that link
[19:00] <OerHeks> sounds a hoax to me, as no-one did claim
[19:01] <kudakwashe> read what
[19:01] <kudakwashe> zero2xiii said
[19:01] <kudakwashe> maybe it is bs
[19:01] <Guardians> kudakwashe: Maybe this thing can be improved i think.
[19:01] <OerHeks> If we knew, ikonia for sure, we would love to tell you :-)
[19:02] <kudakwashe> Guardians: everything can be improved
[19:02] <kudakwashe> Guardians: the question is, who has the will and the capability plus the power
[19:02] <Guardians> OerHeks: Surely so :)
[19:02] <OerHeks> even with a 3g/4g datacard no go
[19:03] <Guardians> kudakwashe: Anyone with skills and a bit of time. Its also how the kernels where made.
[19:03] <kudakwashe> lol
[19:03] <kudakwashe> sorry for the lolspeak
[19:04] <Guardians> kudakwashe: Not to speak of the glibc, rather important i think :)
[19:04] <cipher__> I can't boot to windows or ubuntu. I ran boot-repair, it found windows 7 on /dev/sda, windows 14.04 on sda1
[19:04] <Guardians> lol, better now ? :)
[19:04] <cipher__> how can i fix this?
[19:05] <cipher__> boot-repair fails: "grub is still installed"
[19:05] <kudakwashe> i can't believe i bought i new windows 8 laptop, disabled secure boot, and installed ubuntu completely removing windows with no issues booting, i was worried
[19:05] <omkar_> hello i have ubuntu 14.04 on my desktop i core 5 , with intel hd graphics while booting i am getting black screen.
[19:06] <OerHeks> cipher__, can you pastebin your bootrepair report?
[19:06] <Guardians> cipher__: Boot from an USB Stick or CD, mount and chroot into into the new system (run grub-install /dev/sda or wherever you keep your linux OS)
[19:06] <kudakwashe> omkar_: try pressing ctrl -> alt -> F1 then control -> alt F7 ( if the first time you get a tty )
[19:07] <kudakwashe> that used to happen with another laptop i had
[19:07] <cipher__> OerHeks, paste.ubuntu.com/8124603
[19:07] <omkar_> Kudakwashe_ i tried booting through safe mode  and i get initct1: event failed
[19:08] <eightyeight> how do i get control of my right alt key? currently, i believe it's being used as the compose key for extended alphabets
[19:08] <eightyeight> i want my right alt to be a right alt, and nothing more
[19:08] <veryhappy> i still got one question, how do i remove the nvidia driver that i installed with dkms?
[19:08] <cipher__> OerHeks, any ideas?
[19:09] <OerHeks> cipher__, looks like you have overwriten win7
[19:09] <omkar_> kudawashe_  can help pls ?
[19:10] <Guardians> eightyeight: Well, if you want good weather and nice job-outsights then just relax and be cool.
[19:10] <kudakwashe> i have no idea man
[19:10] <OerHeks> do as Guardians says, reinstall the grub2 of sda1 into the MBR of sda.
[19:10] <OerHeks> !gub
[19:10] <OerHeks> !grub
[19:11] <OerHeks> Then you have an ubuntu system only
[19:11] <kudakwashe> which is perfect, until you're brave enough to move on to trisquel
[19:11] <omkar_> Help required Black Screen after login in Ubuntu 14.04 desktop
[19:13] <kudakwashe> omkar_: long shot but have you tried ctrl -> alt -> F1 to see if you can get a tty
[19:13] <cipher__> OerHeks, oops
[19:13] <omkar_> kudawashe _ i get tty
[19:13] <cipher__> OerHeks, I don't recall it ever formatting
[19:13] <kudakwashe> then ctrl -> alt -> F7
[19:14] <kudakwashe> i don't know, seems weird but that used to happen to me on a particular laptop every time i booted i had to do dthat
[19:14] <cipher__> grub install failed, couldn't find canonical path of /cow?
[19:14] <RedheadedCupcake> Can someone help me with getting netflix to work
[19:14] <omkar_> kudawashe_ cntrl + ALt + F7 give blank screen
[19:15] <Basketball> i opened librewriter app file in gedit and changed the locaTION of icon to a custom one but the icon didnt change
[19:15] <Basketball> I know that i did the right steps
[19:15] <Guardians> RedheadedCupcake: Its a Microsoft thing ?
[19:16] <RedheadedCupcake> Someone was helping me earlier with it but I am having problems.  If you can tell me how to do it, I will gladly try it
[19:17] <omkar_> kudakwashe_ OK thanks , i have been able to get command line , how do i reinstall Intel graphics driver .
[19:17] <OerHeks> Nope, as i have no netflix account, can't help you there. but that solution should work
[19:17] <kudakwashe> omkar_: someone else here will be much better at answering you
[19:17] <omkar_> Ok
[19:18] <RedheadedCupcake> It says this
[19:18] <RedheadedCupcake> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[19:18] <theperfectpunk> i was trying to install ubuntu
[19:18] <cipher__> OerHeks, how do i repair the boot loader so i can get into ubuntu then?
[19:18] <MonkeyDust> RedheadedCupcake  did you do thatN

[19:19] <Guest10238> I have, in my /home/user/ directory, a sub directory that I can't open - to see content before I decide what to do with its contents.  Anyone wanna help?

[19:22] <bekks> theperfectpunk: which ubuntu version do you try to install there?
[19:24] <underplay> Im using trusty 14.04 how come i dont have the "Deb" command?
[19:24] <RedheadedCupcake> I got to this part before, and where you accept the terms of agreement or EULA or whatever it is, I can't accept it. The only thing is it says OK at the bottom of the message I have hit enter I have tried clicked
[19:24] <MonkeyDust> underplay  what is that command supposed to do?
[19:25] <underplay> MonkeyDust, my bad i thought that command would add the that repo to my sources but i just added that line to my sources and it works now thx
[19:26] <kairos> I've been getting "Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker" for the Ubuntu torrents for a couple days now
[19:27] <DJones> kairos: Could be the iso you're trying to download has been deleted, last time I saw that, it was somebody trying to download an EOL release
[19:27] <MonkeyDust> kairos  and where did you find the torrents?
[19:27] <omkar_> moneydust_ can u help me with my black screen
[19:28] <MonkeyDust> omkar_  I was away, what was your question?
[19:28] <RedheadedCupcake> Monkeydust it's not working...
[19:29] <MonkeyDust> RedheadedCupcake  the netflix thing?
[19:29] <omkar_> monkeydust_ i have ubuntu 14.04 on my desktop Intel I5 with HD graphics , i am getting black screen after login .
[19:29] <Guest10238> Any tricks to open and consult a directory that I can't open?  On the bottom of the window (Ubuntu 14.04), it says "26 items (59 hidden)"
[19:29] <RedheadedCupcake> Yeah. I ran the 3rd command on that website that tells you how to do it that I posted earlier. The EULA is in Terminal and I can't accept it.
[19:30] <omkar_> monkey dust_ through when logging through normal mode via recovery mode i get :  tty1 , initct1: failed
[19:30] <MonkeyDust> omkar_  RedheadedCupcake, the pair of you, can't help with that, i'm sure someone else can
[19:31] <RedheadedCupcake> Oh well. Netflix doesn't work. Can't win em all
[19:31] <omkar_> monkeydust _ ok
[19:31] <kairos> MonkeyDust: On the Ubuntu website
[19:31] <kairos> It's the 12.04 torrents
[19:32] <LostNva> RedheadedCupcake, it took me days to get netflix working. Wasn't easy.
[19:33] <kairos> Install Pipelight, enalb eSilverLight, get a UA switcher for your browser
[19:33] <kairos> Works every time for me
[19:33] <LostNva> RedheadedCupcake, this page is how i got it working: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/easily-enable-silverlight-watch-netflix-linux/
[19:33] <toaiwjet> hey does anyone have an alternate site to use besides sourceforge to download the ubuntu boot-repair iso?
[19:33] <Basketball> RedheadedCupcake, are you talking about html5 netflix
[19:33] <toaiwjet> the download keeps freezing at 30mb~ :(
[19:35] <Guest10238> Another  stupid question ... I tried to use fsck.  it said that /sda6 was mounted and that if I continued, I WILL cause severe damage.  How do I un-mount sda6?
[19:35] <Guardians> Guest10238: In a terminal: "apt-get install mc" ... run mc by typing in mc and pressing enter, then navigate to /media/Somewhere/... It should be there somewhere. Some Pads and stuff have divided space on the memory cards, so you may not reach it anyway. In that case you can plug the "phone" or "pad" into a memoryslot on the computer and access it from there.
[19:35] <eeee> toaiwjet: wget -c http://.....iso
[19:35] <eeee> toaiwjet: resume the download
[19:35] <Guardians> Guest10238: umount /dev/sda1
[19:35] <Guardians> Guest10238: umount /dev/sda6
[19:36] <Guest10238> Guardians: This problem is on my desktop computer (sda6 as well as the unaccessible directory
[19:36] <Guest10238> )
[19:37] <Guardians> Guest10238: sda6 is not used much probably, maybe to store some game-data.
[19:38] <ahklerner> hi i am running ubuntu server
[19:38] <ahklerner> i want to mount /dev/sr0 to /media/cdrom at boot
[19:38] <ahklerner> how can i do that
[19:39] <Guest10238> Guardians: I had a dual boot.  sda6 had the Ubuntu 14.04 installation.  On another sda, I have the Ubuntu Studio 14.04 that I am using.
[19:40] <ahklerner> oh i had it named wrong in /etc/rc.local
[19:41] <ahklerner> will reboot and see if that works now
[19:45] <ahklerner> working now
[19:46] <Guest10238> Guardians: Mc is installed, but it has the same problem - it is hanging
[19:47] <cipher__> I want to wipe everything off my computer when installing 14.04 lts desktop, I don't see an install option for this (to install over everything)?
[19:49] <Novice201y> Hello. How can I install package 'gtk+-2.0>=2.24.0' ?

[19:55] <Guest10238> I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.  I need to look at the contents of a directory - the search hangs without me finding the contents ... What do I do?  On the bottom of the window, it says that there are 26 items and 59 hidden, but how to see the contents?
[19:56] <OerHeks> Guest10238, hit ctrl + H ( hidden)
[19:56] <expunge> Novice201y: probably not the same
[19:56] <chriys> OerHeks: what do you use ?
[19:56] <Guest10238> OerHeks: Neither the not hidden nor the hidden are shown.
[19:59] <MonkeyDust> Guest10238  and in a terminal, with ls ?
[19:59] <OerHeks> Guest10238, are you sure that folder is oke?
[19:59] <Guest10238> OerHeks: MonkeyDust: I try with nautilus, sudo nautilus, mc and all hang
[20:00] <OerHeks> maybe you have no sufficient permissions to do so
[20:00] <MonkeyDust> Guest10238  ctrl-alt t, then type ls
[20:02] <omkar_> hello , help required black screen after login
[20:02] <Beldar> omkar_, Any details leading to this?
[20:03] <Guest10238> MonkeyDust: When I type "cd NP1cCjHkA6" (that's the name of the directory), I get in the directory.  Then I type "ls" and nothing more
[20:03] <omkar_> Beldar_ i have ubuntu 14.04 on my desktop , i tried reinstalling mouse drivers after i booted i am getting balck screen after login
[20:03] <expunge> Guest10238: what're you hoping for?
[20:04] <havarka> Guest10238, write ls -a perhaps its hidden
[20:04] <Guest10238> expunge: I want to look to see the contents before I get rid of the directory
[20:04] <Beldar> omkar_, mouse drivers really, how and why?
[20:04] <omkar_> Beldar_ my mouse cursor was not moving hence .
[20:04] <expunge> Guest10238: 'rmdir' removes directories that are empty only
[20:05] <Beldar> omkar_, What is the graphic hardware?
[20:05] <omkar_> Beldar_ currently i am using laptop to commuicate with you . desktop has Intel HDgraphics
[20:05] <Basketball> ubuntu 12.04 i dont get wifi with Realtek RTL8188E Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC
[20:06] <Beldar> omkar_, This a fresh install, live, did the mouse ever work? The problem here are the details, many possibilities, E.g graphic drivers kernels....etc
[20:07] <Storri_> quit
[20:07] <omkar_> Beldar_ This is not fresh install , the mouse did work  ( USD Optical drive )
[20:08] <Beldar> omkar_, I would try an earlier kernel from the grub menu as a test
[20:08] <Guest10238> expunge: I want to first see what is in the directory before I decide what to do with the contents
[20:08] <Beldar> what ubuntu release is this? omkar_
[20:08] <omkar_> Beldar_  can u pls give steps to do that
[20:08] <expunge> Guest10238: if you run 'rmdir' on the directory, and it doesn't give you an error, it has no contents
[20:09] <omkar_> Beldar _ 14.04
[20:09] <expunge> Guest10238: 'find nameofdir' would also show you any contents

[20:11] <messerting> Hi, I managed to do "rm -rf /opt/spotify/", and now I struggle to get spotify (re)installed. I cannot remove spotify-client, and cannot "apt-get install --reinstall spotify-client".
[20:11] <messerting> How can I clean things up?
[20:11] <Guest10238> expunge: When I try to see the contents in Nautilus, I see on the bottom of the directory window "26 items (59 hidden), so it should have something in it - but I can't see what

[20:12] <paqman> Hi, I have come here for a little assistance.
[20:12] <Beldar> omkar_, You are going to need help from someone who has more patience than I have.
[20:12] <messerting> my error is "/var/lib/dpkg/info/spotify-client.postinst: 5: /var/lib/dpkg/info/spotify-client.postinst: ./register.sh: not found"
[20:12] <omkar_> beldar_ pls help .
[20:13] <Beldar> and more knowledge probably
[20:13] <paqman> Beldar perhaps you could help me? I would appreciate it
[20:13] <messerting> (actually, "rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/info/spotify-client*" seems to have solved the problem)
[20:14] <Beldar> omkar_, paqman here is my best help. https://workaround.org/getting-help-on-irc
[20:14] <Guest10238> expunge: Did the "find" thing, but no more information

[20:15] <omkar_> Beldar_  i am in advance mode and kernel availble in ( recovery mode are 0-34 ,32,30,24 ) should i choose ?

[20:15] <paqman> So I am trying to create a bootable Ubuntu USB drive
[20:16] <bazhang> !usb | paqman have a read please
[20:17] <paqman> I believe I have configured the USB drive correctly, and the necessary files and etc. are on the drive that should render it bootable. However, I would like to test it, but am unsure how to actually boot from it. I tried invoking grub with the USB stick connected but I couldn't see anything.
[20:17] <Guest10238> expunge: If it is empty, why does search in nautilus mention at the bottom of the empty screen "26 items (59 hidden)"???
[20:17] <bazhang> set in bios to boot from usb paqman
[20:18] <omkar_> Beldar_ can i install intel graphics driver in recovery mode
[20:18] <expunge> Guest10238: run rmdir on it, if it deletes it, nautilus is confused
[20:19] <OerHeks> Guest10238, what folder exactly?

[20:21] <Guest10238> expunge: 'Failed to remove directory - directory not empty'
[20:21] <expunge> doesn't matter even then
[20:21] <expunge> Guest10238: then it's not empty
[20:21] <expunge> Guest10238: sudo find directoryName
[20:21] <Guest10238> expunge: full path?

[20:45] <anarkhos> when trying the ubuntu 12 live-usb, the network manager detects the right card, network, but when i try to actually choose it, it's as if i didn't chose it, it disappears. how come? i assume this is particular to the live environment. there are some screen issues too, but i circumvented those by booting in vesa mode
[20:45] <omkar_> ubottu nomodeset
[20:46] <eeee> Glycan: no idea, what's the maximum resolution of the external monitor?
[20:46] <expunge> !nomodeset

[20:49] <R0b0t1> eeee: It says some index files failed to download and were ignored, then aborts. Nothing indicating much more of an error. If I knew how to grab the command output I would, but it seems to start a screen or something.
[20:49] <Glycan> eeee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8125287/
[20:49] <Glycan> eeee: but if I try the "maximum" one at the top it says there's no such thing

[21:02] <eeee> Glycan: settings > display, do you have mirrored display on?
[21:02] <expunge> paqman: just look into how to configure grub.cfg to point at a specific device
[21:02] <expunge> paqman: you can probably even just update-grub and have it automatically find and list your usb device
[21:03] <anarkhos> ok, this is the latest regarding the suspend-resume problems on the acer netbook: with lubuntu, it doesn't resume at all after suspend and i have to disconnect the power, battery. with ubuntu, the computer seems to resume, but the screen remains black, so despite the slightly more promising reaction, i have to disconnect the power, battery. anyone who's familiar with this?

[21:11] <R0b0t1> I'm also not sure how to capture what it does output, because it seems to start a fake terminal (a la screen)
