[09:11] <DJones> ChrisRiley: Thats way beyond me, I'd be tempted to join ##hardware and ask them, or possibly the people in #ubuntu-server
[09:12] <reisio> skippy_: run this: echo -e 'one\ntwo' | nl
[09:12] <christos_> ##programming
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> xeonix: yes, its easier
[09:12] <skippy_> I can't run anything man
[09:12] <skippy_> Can u just tell me plz?
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> xeonix: if it doesn't work, try the other combinations of the options
[09:12] <ChrisRiley> Djones: Many thanks for that, i'll give them a shot
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> xeonix: one, then the other, then both
[09:12] <reisio> skippy_: number the lines
[09:12] <skippy_> So nl means list the lines sequentially or say how many lines there r ?
[09:13] <skippy_> Ohhh k
[09:13] <Shadow}}> This is likely a dumb question; But can you play lineage on xubuntu? o.o
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> christos_: type "/join ##programming"    without the quotes
[09:13] <xeonix> Oh, great, its worked, without restart, thank you, thank you very much. ActionParsnip :]
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> Shadow}}: is it a windows game?

[09:13] <saschagehlich> any tips on how to debug a kernal that is unable to boot? i just get a black screen
[09:13] <skippy_> So still lost the lines but just with a sequential number in front od them ?

[09:15] <reisio> Shadow}}: so probably not, short of running it in Windows in a VM
[09:15] <Shadow}}> A VM?
[09:15] <reisio> a virtual machine
[09:15] <reisio> pretend hardware for a contained OS installation

[09:17] <purezen> Hey guys ! I have an EVDO modem from Teracom.. T-U500.. It gets detected in Ubuntu after removing the usb_modeswitch packages.. but does not connect after configuring in Network Manager.. Also Gnome-ppp does not connect it as well..
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> Shadow}}: check the link I gave........
[09:17] <purezen> Please help..:-)
[09:17] <reisio> no, check the link _I_ gave you :p

[09:23] <histo> purezen: ahh
[09:23] <purezen> histo: Also, the modem gets detected fine after uninstalling the usb_modeswitch packages..
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> purezen: what is the ID?

[09:27] <ActionParsnip> purezen: what version of usb-modeswitch-data do you have?
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> !info usb-modeswitch-data
[09:28] <dr_willis> skippy_:   run     man  man      to read the man programs man pages
[09:28] <histo> purezen: I'm having trouble even seeing a support page for that product
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> purezen: according to http://pkgs.org/ubuntu-12.10/ubuntu-main-i386/usb-modeswitch-data_20120815-1_all.deb.html    it has added your device
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> purezen: if you are running Raring
[09:29] <purezen> ActionParsnip, I tried it using the default version.. and then I downloaded the latest one from the site itself.. However, the modem didn't switch in both the cases.. Finally, I tried it after removing the modeswitch packages completely and now it detects fine..
[09:29] <histo> purezen: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[09:29] <purezen> ActionParsnip, I tried it on both quantal and raring..
[09:30] <purezen> histo, Am currently talking from quantal..
[09:30] <purezen> Btw.. there is one thing..
[09:31] <histo> purezen: Have you tried raring or a more upstream distro?
[09:31] <purezen> The storage in the modem did contain a .deb file for installation on Linux.. and I have been trying to reverse program it to get the modem working..
[09:32] <purezen> Shall I show you the .deb guys..?
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> purezen: have you reported a bug?
[09:32] <purezen> histo, Yes, I have tried everything on raring as well.. You can check the modeswitch forum post for that as well..:-)
[09:32] <purezen> ActionParsnip, where btw..?
[09:32] <histo> !bug | purezen
[09:33] <angs> I have a windows 8 PC. I see that wubi does not work on it. is there an easy way to make it dual boot?
[09:33] <angs> win8 and ubuntu
[09:33] <purezen> Oh so you mean in Ubuntu guys..? No...
[09:34] <purezen> Till now, I thought that the problem had to only deal with usb_modeswitch and in that package in Launchpad, bug-reporting is disabled..
[09:34] <purezen> Where shall I file a bug in this case..?
[09:34] <dr_willis> a normal install can work  angs
[09:35] <angs> dr_willis, I have never done it before. is there any specific instruction that I can follow?
[09:35] <angs> *is there any specific one that you suggest
[09:35] <dr_willis> no idea. i dont use win8 at all.
[09:36] <angs> ok, thank you
[09:36] <dr_willis> askubuntu.com would be the place to look first
[09:36] <histo> angs: yes use the install cd and dualboot
[09:36] <histo> !dualboot | angs
[09:36] <histo> !uefi | angs
[09:37] <angs> histo, do you know if these methods work with windows 8?
[09:37] <histo> angs: yes
[09:37] <histo> angs: they do
[09:37] <angs> thank you histo
[09:39] <purezen> So guys, under which package shall I file my bug..?
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> purezen: usb-modeswitch
[09:41] <purezen> Here's my dmesg output and gnome-ppp log.. http://pastebin.com/r0ww8NGQ
[09:42] <purezen> ActionParsnip, Can I just ask why in usb-modeswitch..? Because the modem does not work even after being detected..
[09:43] <purezen> ActionParsnip, This shall mean that something besides is at fault as well.. because usb-modeswitch is only responsible for getting the modem detected.. Am I right..?
[09:45] <purezen> ActionParsnip, Just curious..:-)
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> purezen: then the kernel I guess, the device is a USB storage first because Windows users have issues installing drivers (apparently), so once the driver installs the OS flips it to a serial modem (which arent new in any way)
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> purezen: so either the device isnt getting flipped, or the modem is not correctly detected after the flip
[09:47] <skippy_> what is the difference between w and W SWITCHES?
[09:47] <skippy_> what is the difference between w and W SWITCHES
[09:47] <skippy_> -W
[09:47] <skippy_> -w
[09:47] <purezen> ActionParsnip, You mean something like the usbserial driver is concerned here..?
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> skippy_: check the man page, case is significant in Linux
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> purezen: something like that
[09:51] <streulma> Ubuntu on Retina screen :)
[09:51] <streulma> does someone tried it here?
[09:51] <purezen> ActionParsnip, Ok.. so can you tell me the exact package where I shall file a bug..? A kernel modem or modemanager or something else..?
[09:51] <xeonix> Yet, another doubt, I am having nvidia geforce gt 540M card, but, in the addition drivers I don't find any drivers there, and somehow I feel, when i scroll long pages, the it not feel like I have a graphic card or something.
[09:51] <reisio> streulma: probably someone
[09:52] <streulma> reisio: I get a very high resolution, 2280 pixels...
[09:52] <reisio> neat
[09:54] <reisio> streulma: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro last one
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> purezen: use the modeswitch package, the bug guys will move it if necessary

[09:57] <xeonix> ActionParsnip, ^
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> xeonix: you will need bumblebee as you have a switchable GPU
[09:59] <linus> ActionParsnip it shows Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS \n \l , but i have already used ubuntu 12-04, i just tried to compile and got above pastebin error
[09:59] <xeonix> ActionParsnip, thank you, do i need to install bumblebee or something? Please guide me or link me please.
[10:00] <linus> the below error for wifi driver http://pastebin.com/LHiFnap1

[10:01] <ActionParsnip> xeonix: there are guides all over the web
[10:01] <BOPOHA> !ru
[10:02] <linus> ActionParsnip still i trying to compile,not installed yet,and i just download from kernel.org and add those two drivers in staging directory and compile for x86
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> linus: does it work in the current kernel, or is that the actual issue?

[10:03] <DJones> skippy_: What exactly are you trying to do
[10:04] <skippy_> That's the question.
[10:04] <skippy_> Q5: how we can know the umask value? What is default value of umask?
[10:04] <skippy_> Q5: how we can know the umask value? What is default value of umask
[10:04] <skippy_> Plz assist
[10:04] <DJones> skippy_: This isn't a channel to help you with your homework
[10:04] <skippy_> I know
[10:04] <skippy_> I just need help with this one that's all
[10:04] <DJones> skippy_: This is a support channel, please stop asking
[10:04] <skippy_> Plz
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> skippy_: umask value of WHAT? the question makes no sense
[10:05] <linus> ActionParsnip actually those drivers are worked correctly in my system kernel,which is 3.5.0-23-generic, but araised issues with 3.6.9 which i downloaded from kernel.org on today itself
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> linus: we can only support the kernels from the repos here
[10:05] <skippy_> Well I dont know
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> linus: try in #linux
[10:06] <skippy_> I didn't write the question
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> skippy_: then how do you expect us to know, if you don't?
[10:08] <linus> ActionParsnip it shows like some undefined refernce problem right?, but i  worked exactly in my system kernel,do you have any idea about that?
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> linus: as the issue is not with a package from the official repos it isnt supported here

[10:26] <tgary> Hi! First I've installed ubuntu, but later put up the kde packages, and use kde. How can I update all file associations? (Like pressing enter to a jpg in mc open gwenview and not feh; double clicking a pdf in Eclipse open okular and not evince, etc.)
[10:27] <Lope> Supaplex. no I want to create  a truecrypt file thats all. I don't want to mount it yet.
[10:28] <ath1> after booting ubuntu for installation on an old laptop I get a garbled screen. Is there a boot parameter to force vesa mode?
[10:28] <Supaplex> Lope: I don't have that installed (I use luks myself). sorry :)
[10:28] <Lope> what is luks?
[10:28] <BluesKaj> tgary, are you choosing the kde desktop at login or have you merely installed some kde pacjages
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> tgary: right click file -> open with then select the app and that the association should be remembered
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> !luks
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> Lope: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Unified_Key_Setup
[10:31] <tgary> BluesKaj, ActionParsnip: I logged in to KDE. I thought about an "automatic file association change". I.e. mc has its own file extensoin editor; Eclipse has a "System editor" option, but I don't know where it finds out exactly the programs to be opened.
[10:32] <Joliekitten> hey
[10:32] <tgary> BluesKaj, ActionParsnip: I think in a basic kubuntu install mc would open gwenview, okular, and the same for Eclipse, etc. (KDE programs like dolphin, etc. opens the right file.)
[10:33] <Rapid2214> Any got experience with HP DL360p Gen8, Ubuntu 12.04 and bonding?
[10:33] <Joliekitten> have you ever tried to run netflix on ubuntu, using wine?
[10:33] <Joliekitten> I really need it, because I'm doing film research
[10:33] <Joliekitten> and can't seem to make it work
[10:33] <Joliekitten> I installed this http://www.iheartubuntu.com/2012/11/ppa-for-netflix-desktop-app.html
[10:33] <BluesKaj> tgary, have you installed kubuntu-desktop ?, that would be your best bet
[10:33] <Hanumaan> how to mount windows 8 parition in ubuntu ? it seems that it is not getting mounted automatically ?
[10:34] <Joliekitten> and it seems to open fine, until I actually try to play a film
[10:34] <Joliekitten> and then it just closes
[10:34] <Joliekitten> no error message as far as I can tell :/
[10:35] <tgary> BluesKaj: Yes, its on the latest version.
[10:35] <Joliekitten> any  idea what may be wrong with it?
[10:35] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu-server|Rapid2214, might have a response
[10:36] <Rapid2214> I shall go there, thanks :)
[10:36] <Landswellsong> Guys, a quick question. I want to use Ubuntu Mono font in a LaTeX presentation, but its metadata is broken and fontspec fails to load it. Is there a newer version of the font anywhere? I tried the development page, but it's so complicated there.
[10:36] <Landswellsong> I mean, any build higher than 0.8
[10:41] <Lope> why is this creating a 0 bytes file? (I want a 20GB file) sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo.test bs=1 count=0 seek=20G (I also tried 20000M and still got a 0 byte file)
[10:42] <Landswellsong> Lope, because count=0?
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | Landswellsong
[10:42] <Lope> I copied that command off a website
[10:43] <Lope> Landswellsong: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Tcplay
[10:43] <BluesKaj> tgary, for example if you wat to open a music file then choose open with "other" then choose the player (amarok for example) in the multimedia menu , and check the "Remember app association" box.
[10:43] <Landswellsong> Lope, this doesn't make it correct, does it? :D 2GB times 0 would be 0.
[10:44] <Lope> okay well now I just tried as a test, count=1G (and left out seek)
[10:44] <Landswellsong> Lope, however it does work at my setup at least with 2M
[10:44] <Landswellsong> Lope, probably your FS automagically handles sparse files?
[10:45] <Supaplex> Lope: try skip= instead of seek=
[10:45] <Lope> I'm using LVM
[10:45] <Lope> lol I tried count=1G and left out seek. the file size looped up to 10MB and reset itself over and over. was weird.
[10:45] <Lope> killed it
[10:47] <tgary> BluesKaj: mc has a spec. extension editor, there is no other...use always... as in e.g. a browser. Same for Eclipse: spec editor. I "think" it reads these default apps from somewhere, and would be nice to update all apps to "kde apps" instead of "gnome apps" (not jus these two).
[10:47] <Lope> found a better command: fallocate -l 10G gentoo_root.img
[10:47] <Alphanerd> http://i.imgur.com/5m7Yrd3.jpg
[10:47] <Landswellsong> Lope, what filesystem are you using? If you use count, you would actually copy bytes from /dev/zero. I'm sorry I was misleading, your command was ok since it would just produce a sparce file, not copyin from /dev/zero but just declaring filesize, but the filesystem layer may optimize that out.
[10:47] <Alphanerd> anyone know who is this ?
[10:47] <ikonia> Alphanerd: why post that ?
[10:47] <BluesKaj> tgary, mc?
[10:47] <ikonia> Alphanerd: this is #ubuntu - an ubuntu support channel
[10:47] <DJones> Alphanerd: Does that have anything to do with Ubuntu?
[10:48] <Lope> Landswellsong: ok will give fallocate a go.
[10:48] <cfhowlett> !topic|Alphanerd,
[10:49] <Lope> oh lol, ignore what I said earlier about the filesize going up to 10MB and down to zero again in a loop. was using gnome commander and it was truncating the number without giving me any idea that it was doing that. (silly UI)
[10:49] <Lope> Okay fallocate is super fast :)
[10:50] <FourFire> Hello, my sound is cutting off after half a second
[10:50] <FourFire> any audio source
[10:51] <FourFire> I am using pulse audio
[10:51] <tgary> BluesKaj: The Midnight Commander.. It has F9->Commands->Edit file extensions; and I get a 689 lines long file with "cryptic" regular expressions. I even didn't find feh that opens for png extensions by default.
[10:52] <FourFire> when I mute via Rythmbox, then change the configuration setting on Pulseaudio to "Analogue stereo output" then unmute the sound comes back
[10:52] <FourFire> but only for half a second
[10:52] <FourFire> "it works all the time 50% of the time"
[10:52] <FourFire> I am using Ubuntu version 12.04
[10:54] <tgary> BluesKaj: and not only mc the question, but all browsers, other editors, etc.
[10:55] <BluesKaj> tgary, I'm not familiar with mc , I use dolphin for most of my files /paths etc
[10:55] <BluesKaj> or krunner
[10:56] <tgary> BluesKaj: Ok, thanks the help anyway!
[10:57] <BluesKaj> tgary, what you're doing is most unusual , compared to ordinary users
[10:57] <FourFire> the sound Only comes back when I switch the configuration profile (in pulsaudio) from HDMI Stereo output to analogue stereo output
[10:57] <FourFire> but again only for half a second
[10:58] <BluesKaj> tgary, the kde version of midnight commander is called krusader , I think
[10:58] <BluesKaj> or the newest version in kde
[11:00] <coderrr13> hi all
[11:00] <BluesKaj> FourFire, install pavucontrol , it solidifiies the audio outputs and inputs
[11:00] <cfhowlett> coderrr13, greetings
[11:00] <Sicp> I want to install a version of NodeJS that is higher than the default which I got (0.6.19)
[11:00] <Sicp> how do I do that?
[11:00] <FourFire> pavucontrol?
[11:00] <FourFire> ok
[11:00] <Sicp> do I have to add their repository to my sources and then update/upgrade?
[11:00] <Dr_Willis> sipior:  look for it in a ppa or use source.    their repo would be a ppa - yes.
[11:01] <BluesKaj> FourFire, pavucontrol is the pulseaudio gui
[11:01] <FourFire> yes i see

[11:01] <aleksey2013> все сдела груб
[11:01] <aleksey2013> устанаволи бург и все норм терь
[11:01] <FourFire> that's what I installed to be able to put audio through my HDTV
[11:02] <BluesKaj> !ru | aleksey2013
[11:02] <FourFire> but the issue (which only began after i had done that) seems to be caused by it
[11:02] <Sicp> will that overwrite the NodeJS that I have currently, Dr_Willis ? I do not want the 0.6.19 any longer
[11:03] <BluesKaj> FourFire, what's your audio chip in alsamixer ?
[11:03] <FourFire> I don't have alsamixer
[11:03] <FourFire> I have something called rythmbox though
[11:04] <BluesKaj> type alsamixer in the terminal , FourFire
[11:04] <Sicp> has nothing to do with your problem, FourFire ; it's just a music player, not the sound mixer
[11:04] <FourFire> "Intel IbexPeak HDMI "
[11:05] <BluesKaj> FourFire, how are you connecting the audio to your tv , thru your HDMI ?
[11:06] <FourFire> through HDMI yes
[11:06] <FourFire> but I have no issue with the TV, sound works fine if I switch config
[11:06] <FourFire> I am trying to use my computer normally with headphones
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> Sicp:  if you installed it via the package manager. yes
[11:07] <Sicp> cool
[11:07] <christos_> \logging ##programming
[11:07] <Sicp> it did, now nodejs -v produces a newer version
[11:07] <FourFire> and the sound is cutting out after half a second, the only way to get it back is to toggle between HDMI and analogue
[11:07] <FourFire> from HDMI to analogue*
[11:10] <FourFire> ok, I randomly toggled the settings again
[11:10] <FourFire> and it just works
[11:10] <BluesKaj> FourFire, add this line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf with root permissions , options snd-hda-intel model=auto ...you may have to reboot
[11:10] <FourFire> (which is just like last time I had the issue)
[11:10] <FourFire> I'd like to figure out what is causing this periodic "sound stops working weirdly for a time, then comes back" issue
[11:11] <FourFire> thanks for your help
[11:11] <BluesKaj> FourFire, did you read my posy above ?
[11:11] <BluesKaj> post
[11:12] <FourFire> yes, but I'm not sure what you mean: you want me to write "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" into the config file?
[11:12] <christos_> programming group?
[11:13] <DJones> christos_: The same one you were twice earlier today, ##programming
[11:13] <BluesKaj> FourFire, yes , then save it
[11:13] <christos_> ##programming
[11:13] <christos_> ii am writting the samee twice
[11:13] <christos_> and nothing
[11:13] <christos_> for this i am asking
[11:14] <DJones> christos_: Type '/join ##programming' without the '
[11:14] <FourFire> hmm it won't let me open that file even with root?
[11:14] <FourFire> Lemme try again
[11:14] <christos_> i was writting log
[11:17] <BluesKaj> !pm | wang7396,
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: use:  echo "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf > /dev/null
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: easier
[11:17] <pbase> I was wondering who bears the cost of development of ubuntu?
[11:17] <FourFire> ok it didn't return anything
[11:18] <FourFire> so that's it?
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: then it worked, cat the file to check it was added
[11:18] <FourFire> yes it worked!
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: it wasn't meant to output anything :). Tee outputs to the stdout as well as the thing you add to, so I piped to /dev/null to keep things tidy
[11:18] <FourFire> Thanks ActionParsnip and BluesKaj !
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: np bro
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: tee on its own will make the text the only content, like '>'
[11:19] <BluesKaj> FourFire, thank me after it works for you :)
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: tee -a is like >> and appends
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> FourFire: its how you can add to root owned files, pipe text to 'sudo tee -a' :)
[11:21] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, once the file path is in the run command dropdown , it's easy to find for subsequent edits , at least it is for me :)
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: or bash history :)
[11:24] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, bash history ?
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: sure, if you use CLI a lot you get commands in bash history which you can copy / edit and run similar commands over and over
[11:26] <Ultimate4> Hello there. I was upgrading from ubuntu 11.10 to ubuntu 12.04 LTS via Update Manager. At the instant when updates were being downloaded(probably 1.2 GB were downloaded and 200 MB more to go), my pc shut down because of electricity fluctation. Can i resume the upgrade from the point  where i left earlier?
[11:26] <cfhowlett> Ultimate4, not adviseable
[11:27] <cfhowlett> Ultimate4, best practice is to torrent the 12.04 ISO, make a boot usb and clean install
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate4: could drop to root recovery mode and run:  sudo apt-get -f install
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate4: if its only the download stage then you should be ok
[11:27] <cfhowlett> Ultimate4, best to assume the aborted upgrade is fragged but you could try it.  expect unforeseen consequences
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> cfhowlett: its only the download stage, not install
[11:28] <Ultimate4> ActionParsnip: Yes, it was only in download stage and it wasn't even completed. I am sure about that.
[11:28] <cfhowlett> ActionParsnip, noted.  I figure scrambled packages are the order , but it is his machine ...
[11:31] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, I do use the cli quite a lot , and do use the arrow keys to find previous commands, but I mostly use a text file for a lot of those commands .What is the path for bash history ?
[11:32] <llutz> BluesKaj: "history" command, or ~/.bash_history  file
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate4: try:  sudo apt-get -f install     so you know packages are square then rerun the upgrade like you did before
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: you can also pipe history to grep to search for old commands
[11:35] <Ultimate4> ActionParsnip: Can i run this command in normal user mode or should i reboot my PC and enter into recovery mode?
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate4: try on the normal desktop
[11:36] <chalu> I recently installed the new ubuntu 13 in a new partition, because my previous wubi installation failed to boot after I adjusted my windows 7 partiton. Now I need to retrieve my files from the old wubi-based installation. any hints where wubi kept my files ??
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> chalu: why do you not have a backup of the files?
[11:37] <BluesKaj> yeah ActionParsnip , I keep a text file with categories that use certain commands as a quick reference guide  and have done so a for quite a few yrs now
[11:37] <chalu> I have some, but there are some I forgot to backup. I did not know the wubi installation will fail to boot
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> chalu: if you mount your NTFS, you can then mount the wubi disk file and access the data
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> chalu: I suggest you review your backup regime, it is clearly not fit for purpose
[11:38] <cfhowlett> chalu, wubi has a documented history of being suboptimal.  you might want to do a normal dual boot or consider virtualbox for ubuntu
[11:39] <BluesKaj> he already has done
[11:39] <chalu> yes, I installed gparted and could eventually see the partitions. Its all in a single HDD, but I could not see the files
[11:39] <MonkeyDust> chalu  wubi is a windows application, it's not a real ubuntu installation
[11:40] <chalu> ok, if wubi is a windows application, then it certainly keeps my ubuntu-based files somewhere
[11:41] <gp5st> `sudo tail -f /var/log/apache2/example.com/access.log | grep -v "/favicon.ico"` works, but `sudo tail -f /var/log/apache2/example.com/access.log | grep -v "/favicon.ico" | grep -v zite.com` filters everything and gives no output. I switched the second grep to "grep A" (which should match Aug in ever line's date, and I still get nothing. (yes, I am forcing requests via curl, so I know I should be seeing something). removing the `grep -v favico
[11:41] <cfhowlett> chalu, inside a wubi based folder in your windows subdirectory
[11:42] <chalu> sorry am very new to ubuntu
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> gp5st: is the log file not readable by user?
[11:42] <chalu> ok. so if I boot into windows and locate the wubi installation folder, how do I proceed from there pls?
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> chalu: in the wubi.dsk or root.dsk file. I forget which
[11:43] <gp5st> ActionParsnip: It's an apache access log, so no, it's not
[11:43] <chalu> ok,
[11:43] <chalu> thanks a lot
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> chalu: the files are in the wubi folder in the root of your windows partition
[11:43] <chalu> let me try it
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> gp5st: just checkin
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> gp5st: why not use:    sudo tail -f /var/log/apache2/example.com/access.log | egrep -v 'favicon.ico|zite.com'
[11:45] <chalu> ok, I just saw a root.disk file that is about 32GB, guess thats the file ?
[11:45] <gp5st> ActionParsnip: ::shrug:: didn't think about it. I normally build up a command at a time. Still a confusing problem:-\
[11:46] <gp5st> ActionParsnip: good workaround though. That does work
[11:50] <frinott> chalu: boot native linux, mount windows partition, then lo-mount root.disk
[11:50] <llutz> gp5st: you might use "grep --line-buffered ..."
[11:50] <gp5st> llutz: i'll check that
[11:51] <chalu> ok, thanks frinott. I've mounted the windows partition already. I guess lo-mount root.disk is a command meant for my terminal ?
[11:51] <gp5st> llutz: cool, that worked:)
[11:53] <llutz> gp5st: common problem, programs buffer output and don't write byte by byte immediately. that's why grep fails then
[11:55] <frinott> chalu: sudo mount -o loop /win/c/../root.disk /some/folder/you/access
[11:55] <zetheroo1> someone installed nconf on a system and I am trying to find out where it actually located ... how might I go about this?
[11:57] <frinott> chalu: paths are not literal, informational, change accordingly
[11:57] <chalu> ok
[11:57] <chalu> giving it a trial
[11:57] <DJones> zetheroo1: Maybe "dpkg -L nconf" will show where its installed
[11:58] <BluesKaj> or locate nconf
[11:59] <zetheroo1> DJones: what if it was installed from a tar and not from the repos ...  would that make a diff?
[12:00] <DJones> zetheroo1: I suspect dpkg wouldn't know about the package in that case
[12:00] <zetheroo1> ok
[12:00] <zetheroo1> is there then a way to search for nconf on the root filesystem?
[12:01] <DJones> zetheroo1: Have you tried the command BluesKaj suggested
[12:01] <llutz> zetheroo1: find / -name nconf*
[12:01] <flying> ciao
[12:01] <flying> !list
[12:01] <zetheroo1> DJones: ah just saw that now ...
[12:02] <zetheroo1> ok I found it
[12:02] <zetheroo1> it was installed into /root/nconf
[12:03] <frinott> chalu: check output of mount command if you cant find win partition path
[12:03] <chalu> frinott, I got a no such file or directory error on the console. So I cd into media/Acer/ubuntu/disks and did ls and saw the root.disk file there
[12:04] <chalu> sudo mount -o loop rook.disk /opt also failed with the same so such file / directory error
[12:04] <frinott> chalu: use full paths, and dont use  /opt, create something in your home folder
[12:05] <zetheroo1> does anyone have experience with Nconf? I am trying to get the changes I made in Nconf to be reflected in the web interface of icinga ....
[12:05] <DJones> chalu: Not sure if that was a typo, you've got rook.disk rather than root.disk
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> chalu: did you cd to the containing folder first?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> chalu: use TAB to autocomplete file names
[12:06] <chalu> yes, am inside media/Acer/ubuntu/disks which contains the root.disk file
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> chalu: sudo mkdir /media/wubi; sudo mount -o loop ./root.disk /media/wubi
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> chalu: if you get no output, it worked
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> chalu: can you see why a good backup is a good thing now?
[12:08] <cfhowlett> chalu, or perhaps it's time to remind you: wubi is for TESTING ubuntu not for long-term or permanent installation.
[12:11] <chachan> hi guys, my SSD drive is not being reconized by kubuntu installer, any idea?
[12:11] <chachan> it says that I don't have enough space for installation. And it's a 120GB drive
[12:11] <frinott> I never use Wubi. just guessing lo mount may work... or not.
[12:12] <chachan> frinott: what do you mean with that?. I'm running a live session now
[12:13] <frinott> the way wubi mounts disks is not stable. something experimental.
[12:13] <chachan> shouldn't I format it before mount it?
[12:13] <chachan> what's wubi?
[12:13] <cfhowlett> !who
[12:14] <chalu> ok. I made a wubi folder in my current location /media/Acer/ubuntu/disks
[12:14] <chalu> sudo mount -o loop ./root.disk /wubi gave an error
[12:14] <chalu> wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[12:14] <chalu>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[12:14] <chalu>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[12:14] <chalu>        dmesg | tail  or so
[12:15] <FloodBot1> chalu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:15] <chalu> ooops, sorry
[12:16] <frinott> chalu: are there other files next to root.disk? if yes, what are their names?
[12:17] <chalu> ok, there's a boot folder, root.disk, swap.disk and the new wubi folder I just added
[12:17] <frinott> you did wrong
[12:18] <frinott> wubi folder was not meant to be created there
[12:18] <sharpshooter> hai friends when i unzip a file using command line like unzip <filename.zip> the folder inside archive is not extracting but i can do it by right click and uncompress how to do it in command way
[12:18] <zea> hello, which firewall should i use for ubuntu/kubuntu?
[12:18] <chalu> ok, removing it
[12:18] <cfhowlett> !firewall|zea,
[12:19] <zea> cfhowlett: is there a kde gui?
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> zea  gufw or fwbuilder
[12:19] <cfhowlett> zea, probably.  look in the software center.  I'm on xubuntu so ...
[12:20] <layer8_> Debian FTW. Ubuntu Suxx :-D
[12:24] <chalu> frinott: here's what I did and the outcome  - http://ur1.ca/eyd4l
[12:27] <Lope> whats the simplest way to asymetrically synchronize 2 dirs on linux? (meaning right dir will be exactly the same as the left, any extra files/dirs on right get wiped out, and only newer files will be overwritten, old files with same timestamp will be kept)
[12:27] <ziem> how can i stop internet when my vpn disconnects?
[12:30] <ikonia> Lope: rsync
[12:30] <baisu> which vpn do you use?
[12:30] <ziem> baisu: openvpn with network-manager
[12:31] <blz> Hello, I have no idea how/why I have apache2 installed, but I do, and `cat /etc/services | grep 80` shows http/https as being open.  Does this mean port 80 is open to everyone on my local network?
[12:31] <MonkeyDust> Lope  rsync -a --delete
[12:31] <blz> And if so, how do I block it so that it can only be reached from the localhost?
[12:32] <chalu> frinott: the wubi folder is now directly under the windows (Acer) partition

[12:34] <ckknight> Hi guys
[12:34] <d][m> hello all
[12:35] <ckknight> I need some help... anyone?
[12:35] <d][m> I need some help with a dependency problem, some care to help ?
[12:35] <blz> !ask|ckknight
[12:36] <blz> !ask|d][m
[12:36] <d][m> I am trying to get rid of gnome3 ppa with apt-purge, but it fails with numerous dependency problems
[12:36] <blz> d][m, could you please post the error on pastebin?
[12:37] <d][m> blz: sure thing, give me a sec
[12:39] <d][m> blz: here goes: http://pastebin.com/Y6JDRsXS
[12:39] <d][m> thanks you
[12:40] <blz> d][m, if you read the error it's fairly clear that purging that PPA will break dependencies
[12:40] <d][m> yep
[12:40] <nannes> idfc
[12:40] <blz> d][m, so that's your problem
[12:40] <nannes> Hi
[12:40] <openerpdev> ?
[12:40] <nannes> :)
[12:41] <blz> d][m, so you should downgrade those packages or else select one of the options presented to you.
[12:41] <d][m> blz: no way to get aroud it ? by removing packags for instance ?
[12:41] <blz> d][m, yep. that would work
[12:41] <blz> d][m, just make sure they aren't packages you actually need
[12:42] <blz> like plymouth
[12:42] <d][m> blz: should I remove  them before apt-purging ?
[12:43] <blz> d][m, that's the idea, yes.  But again, make sure you don't remove something critical
[12:44] <d][m> blz: is critical, but what prevent me to reinstall it aftwer apt-purging via ssh ?
[12:44] <d][m> blz: "lightdm"
[12:44] <blz> d][m, I guess that depends on the package in question
[12:45] <blz> d][m, but indeed you can reinstall stuff afterwards
[12:48] <d][m> blz: ok, I am removing those packages just right now
[12:50] <matrixa1> http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ubuntu-edge?c=activity "Ubuntu Edge now $695, thanks to major industry backing!"
[12:50] <d][m> blz: btw, there is a weird bug with apt-purge, it fails to work twice on the same ppa if the first time was canceled..
[12:51] <blz> d][m, does it give you an error?
[12:51] <blz> d][m, apt-get is known to leave it's lock file hanging around on occasion
[12:52] <chalu> frinott: this also failed - http://ur1.ca/eydlj
[12:52] <d][m> blz: yes, it says there is no such ppa, wehereas this aformentioned ppa is still in /etc/apt/sourcelist.d
[12:52] <blz> hmm... then you should just be able to remove the lines from /etc/apt/sourcelist.d
[12:52] <blz> d][m, try commenting them out first, though
[12:52] <blz> just to be sure
[12:55] <d][m> ok . ppa-purge didn't complete, there's a warning
[12:56] <d][m> blz: Errors were encountered while processing:
[12:56] <d][m>  /var/cache/apt/archives/libgraphite2-3_1.2.1-1_i386.deb
[12:56] <d][m> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[12:56] <d][m> only this one.. strange, I was sure I had deleted it
[12:57] <cellardoor> If anyone could shed light on why my Synaptics touchpad isn't working? When I run synclient it says the driver isn't even loaded.
[12:59] <frinott> chalu: what sw you used to resize your windows disk? describe what you did
[12:59] <cellardoor> My Xorg log is here http://bpaste.net/show/121068/
[13:00] <d][m> blz: so far so good, I am now reinstalling unity package
[13:00] <d][m> blz: and lightdm
[13:03] <d][m> blz: and now rebooting: still a black grub screen and a blue booting screen from ubuntu gnome.. weird..
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> d][m: what GPU do you use?
[13:05] <d][m> blz: crap, I can't log on, I am send back to logging screen entering password
[13:05] <d][m> reinstalling ubuntu-desktop
[13:06] <blz> d][m, hence my warning about plymouth
[13:06] <blz> d][m, reinstall plymouth
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> d][m: can you log on as guest?
[13:06] <d][m> blz:nvidia Gforce
[13:07] <d][m> blz: I m doing all this through ssh
[13:07] <blz> d][m, reinstall plymouth
[13:07] <d][m> blz: ok,
[13:07] <tneo> hello, after the hack ubuntu wanted me to change my pw, which I wanted to do, but I was required to sign up with the SSO page
[13:08] <tneo> now my account is set to tneo2 instead of my original nick tneo
[13:08] <tneo> how can i fix that?
[13:09] <d][m> blz: no need to reinstall plymouth, installing ubuntu-desktop must have fix it, I am logged now. lost my theme, but that's nothing.
[13:10] <Pici> tneo: We only do OS support here.  You could try asking on the forums themselves or in #ubuntuforums
[13:10] <MonkeyDust> tneo  you mean the ubuntu-forums thingy?
[13:10] <blz> d][m, yeah I was 99% sure that ubuntu-desktop included plymouth
[13:10] <blz> d][m, but that was your problem
[13:11] <d][m> blz: thank you for your help, it was getting infuriating
[13:11] <blz> d][m, no worries =)
[13:11] <blz> d][m, ppa purging is sometimes quite tricky =/
[13:11] <d][m> nice and valuable people here, have a great day all.
[13:14] <pegler> hi.  can someone take a look at a short syslog entry and point me in the right direction?  the errors stem from being out of memory, but I am unsure of where to start looking
[13:15] <blz> pegler, you should post the log so that somebody can actually have a look =)

[13:34] <jakub> Can anyone please help my solve a little problem I can't find answer to
[13:34] <jakub> I am a new user
[13:34] <MonkeyDust> jakub  if you're sweet
[13:34] <jakub> and using the 11.04 version
[13:35] <blz> !ask|jakub
[13:35] <jakub> is there a way to update FIrefox?
[13:35] <MonkeyDust> jakub  sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade
[13:35] <blz> jakub, there's a firefox ppa that has the latest version if the version in the repos is out-of-date
[13:35] <MonkeyDust> jakub  ah, not for 11.04
[13:35] <Pici> !11.04
[13:35] <jakub> Oh sorry I was not aware of that
[13:36] <jakub> So the only way to update is to get a new version of Ubuntu right?
[13:36] <blz> Oh wow, 11.04
[13:36] <blz> jakub, yeah that's the gist of it
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> jakub  it's normal if you're new, ypi don't know such things
[13:36] <reisio> jakub: not the only way, but the proper way
[13:36] <blz> jakub, it's also the only way to get security updates =)
[13:36] <pegler> Can someone take a look at this log and tell me if my assessment that beam.smp is the likely source of the out of memory error? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5962541/
[13:36] <jakub> Thank you for your help I am grateful for this
[13:38] <blz> jakub, any time =)

[13:41] <ActionParsnip> pegler: have you tested RAM using Memtest86+ from Grub?

[13:46] <ziaa> hi everyone, i'm having a firewall problem; i'm trying to only allow connections to and from my vpn; so i set ufw default deny for both incoming and outgoing, and then added four rules (one by one): sudo ufw allow (in|out) (to|from) VPN_IP, but when i do that, i cannot surf anymore. i can ping VPN_IP, but not google.fr; my VPN is connected with network-manager

[13:46] <Drekalots> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Dell 660s. According to the Ubuntu site it should work. Alas, it is not. I've tryied 13.04 and 12.04. CentOS and Gentoo. Nothing works. Ubuntu installs but fails to load saying there is no bootable medium detected.
[13:47] <reisio> Drekalots: maybe it's not the distros
[13:47] <Drekalots> CentOS panics. Gentoo just does nothing. lol.
[13:47] <MonkeyDust> Drekalots  then it must be the hardware
[13:47] <Drekalots> reisio: It shouldn't be the machine. It's brand new.
[13:47] <dtcrshr> Is there any video player on linux as bsplayer thats capable to search and download automatically subtitles from the web?
[13:48] <chalu> I am trying to mount my  wubi root.disk file. Can someone pls help with it - http://ur1.ca/eydlj
[13:48] <chalu> please
[13:48] <ziaa> dtcrshr: try command-line scripts addic7ed or subliminal
[13:48]  * dtcrshr googlin
[13:48] <frinott> pegler: yes that seems to consume most memory, some db process, but other process invokes oom killer
[13:49] <reisio> Drekalots: well the only other thing in common is you :)
[13:49] <Drekalots> reisio: I know it's not me... lol. At least i hope not...
[13:49] <ziaa> dtcrshr: then you can make a small script of yourself which takes as argument a video file, calls the subtitles download scripts, and finally calls vlc
[13:49] <MonkeyDust> Drekalots  if it's not the software, not the hardware and not you, there's not much left
[13:49] <wingnut2626> is there a pcsx2 for ubuntu 64 bit that actually works?
[13:50] <Drekalots> MonkeyDust: Planetary alignment?
[13:51] <MonkeyDust> wingnut2626  would that be sony playstation? if yes: pcsxr is in the repos
[13:52] <EDinNY> what is the name of the program that probes the system, then install proprietary drivers?
[13:52] <dtcrshr> thanks ziaa im working here on the python script
[13:53] <wingnut2626> MonkeyDust : no playstation 2
[13:53] <EDinNY> How do I install proprietary drivers?
[13:53] <MonkeyDust> !info pcsxr | wingnut2626 I don't know the difference
[13:54] <DJones> EDinNY: It used to be jockey-gtk but I think thats been taken into another app, there may still be jockey-text that runs from a terminal
[13:55] <EDinNY> DJones: thanks. minimal system here. what is the name of the GUI?
[13:55] <wingnut2626> MonkeyDust : pcsxr does not play playstation 2 games
[13:55] <EDinNY> there it goes...
[13:58] <Puma1337> I am running ubuntu server and I have lfd installed -- every few minutes I am getting "Suspicious process running under user www-data" and also the same for mysql.  I know I can set lfd to ignore those users, but I feel like just ignoring them is a security risk.  Is there any way to resolve these messages so I get alerted for real suspicious activities and not just normal operation?

[14:00] <kerim> Drekalots: Do you have a spare Windows CD somewhere? Maybe try that?
[14:00] <Cattolico90> is there an italian chat?
[14:01] <kerim> Drekalots: Also, if you have an USB drive, install a distro on that and try to boot off of it with your machine
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> !it
[14:01] <kerim> Drekalots: Does the LiveCD work?
[14:03] <utfans05> ziaa, when you do iptables -L does the allow rules come first/
[14:03] <utfans05> ziaa, if not, then your traffic will not come through. you need to make sure the things you want to come through are at the top of that list.

[14:09] <noob7> hi, can someone please tell me what happens when I select "shared to other computers" in the IPv4 tab of the network manager? how is the ip assigned to the "host" machine and others? static or dhcp?
[14:09] <blz> Mace268, the files are *inside* the computer </zoolander>
[14:09] <blz> XD
[14:09] <Mace268> lol
[14:09] <noob7> have the "clients" to use dhclient to get an ip or just setting static ones
[14:10] <ziaa> utfans05: any idea what's wrong?

[14:13] <Mace268> thanks
[14:14] <noob7> setting static adresses I can't ping the "host" machine, using dhclient takes long and does not assign an ip address

[14:49] <jpds> msch: You can't.
[14:50] <msch> jpds why?
[14:50] <jpds> msch: Because 12.04 is frozen.
[14:50] <msch> jpds but there's precise-backports that has lxc 0.8 while precise ships with 0.75
[14:50] <jpds> msch: Ah, -backports.
[14:51] <ZIPY> msch: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-backports main restricted universe multiverse u can try this replace lucid
[14:51] <msch> jpds and the daily builds have 0.9 for 12.04 https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-lxc/+archive/daily/+packages

[14:55] <reisio> pseubodot: nope
[14:55] <reisio> pseubodot: thought you were talking about something else
[14:55] <reisio> pseubodot: check that your ctrl/alt/shift/windows/meta keys aren't stuck, give them all a good smack
[14:55] <reisio> also your mouse/pointer keys
[14:56] <pseubodot> reisio: I'd see
[14:56] <pseubodot> reisio: no evident input issues
[14:56] <pseubodot> hmm
[14:58] <ZIPY> riiddi: which one is the "apple/cmd" key and what does it execute
[14:59] <pseubodot> reisio: hrm. lost middle-button-paste altogether. whee.

[15:15] <myou> hi there guys
[15:15] <reisio> post on geforce.com from three years ago suggests it might be supported
[15:15] <reisio> myou: hi
[15:16] <myou> I'm using usb to hdmi adapter with the kernel 3.10.  it works quite well.  the problem is that every time I suspend the machine.
[15:16] <myou> the output name changes
[15:16] <myou>  DVI-0 then DVI-1 then DVI-2 and so on
[15:16] <reisio> http://askubuntu.com/questions/95693/does-ubuntu-support-3d-monitors
[15:17] <myou> does anybody know how to fix this? Is it possible to add a udev rule to pin the output name?
[15:17] <reisio> myou: if it's a /dev thingy, probably
[15:17] <myou> I'm using kernel 3.10
[15:17] <myou> it supports displaylink
[15:17] <myou> it works actually
[15:17] <myou> the problem is that the name of the output changes
[15:18] <reisio> you said
[15:18] <myou> so it is an udev problem I geuss
[15:18] <myou> guess
[15:18] <reisio> quite possibly
[15:19] <myou> which channel should I ask? the guys from udev pointed me here, actually their channel message did
[15:19] <Boogery> What should I permission my samba files as on the server? I am concerend with group access. So valid users @mp3 and chmod ???:mp3. should I use root? or nobody? or my user or something else?
[15:19] <MotherMGA> Hello, I have a weird issue with the character encoding and display of special characters in gnome-terminal. Basically, special characters are rendering a square with the utf-8 code in it, rather than not displaying at all. This is important because readline uses special characters \001 and \002 to block of untracked characters for prompt analysis. This only occurs in gnome-terminal; xterm is fine. Also, running screen inside gnome
[15:19] <reisio> myou: where do you see the 'output name'?
[15:20] <myou> xrandr
[15:20] <mjayk> Boogery: i wouldnt use root
[15:20] <myou>  xrandr  | grep ' connected' | grep DVI
[15:20] <myou> this oututs the display name
[15:20] <reisio> myou: can you paste the line?
[15:20] <myou> which changes every time I suspend the machine
[15:20] <Mace268> how do i get ubuntu to generate /dev entries for partitions on my drives?
[15:20] <myou> DVI-0 connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 408mm x 255mm
[15:20] <reisio> Mace268: what makes you think it hasn't?
[15:21] <myou> right now is 0
[15:21] <columb> Anyone tried photoshop with wine? Or should I setup  virtual machine with windows to use it without problems?
[15:21] <Mace268> fdisk shows the partition but it's not listed in /dev
[15:21] <myou> next time I suspend is going to be DVI-1
[15:21] <auronandace> !appdb | columb
[15:21] <Boogery> mjayk: kind of my thought. all the examples I see show root creating some foldes someplace like mkdir /var/mp3 but using root seems like a very BAD idea. But is noboby just as bada?
[15:21] <myou> all my window manager rules then get broken
[15:22] <reisio> myou: and then you run some command to fix it?
[15:22] <columb> auronandace, could you confirm that you run photoshop under wine without issues?
[15:22] <myou> right now I run a script that changes the i3 configuration and restarts the window manager
[15:22] <compdoc> columb, I have a friend that uses illustrator with wine. its been a while, but he said a few things like certain dialog boxes had minor issues, but they might have fixed that stuff by now.
[15:22] <auronandace> columb: i don't run photoshop at all, try asking in #winehq
[15:22] <myou> it works but is quirky
[15:22] <mjayk> Boogery: ok so maybe yes you use root to create the dir then you assin a user read only or read write permissions using chmod
[15:22] <reisio> columb: works fine in a VM for certain
[15:22] <myou> I was hoping to solve the problem with a udev rule
[15:22] <reisio> columb: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=17 lists several platinum ratings, which means perfection
[15:22] <myou> and was wondering if it was possible
[15:24] <Boogery> mjayk: but what user? I am doing Active Directory. So my group will be an AD group.   is any normal id good? ie use my user account or the nobody account. I am not sure nobody is beeter to use than root. from a security stand point.
[15:24] <mjayk> Boogery: I would usually create an account for the purpose
[15:25] <mjayk> Boogery: but its always a trade of from usablility to security
[15:26] <Boogery> mjayk: I was thinking "smbuser" fos an account name. But yes, it is one more account to be hacked
[15:27] <Boogery> mjayk: thanks for the help.  I think smbuser with no shell access will do the job.
[15:27] <mjayk> Boogery: nps hope it helps hf
[15:27] <myou> does anybody know if it is possible to pin the monitor output name by using a udev rule. My displaylink monitor changes the name every time I suspend the machine. The first time is DPI-0 then DPI-1 ecc . Thank you.
[15:27] <reisio> myou: any use? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5469828/how-to-create-a-callback-for-monitor-plugged-on-an-intel-graphics
[15:29] <Mace268> how do i get ubuntu to generate /dev entries for partitions on my drives? fdisk shows the partitions but they're not listed in /dev
[15:29] <myou> That enables the user to execute the script when the monitor is connected. My monitor stays connected always. The problem is that the name changes every time I resume from suspension. Thank you for your time.
[15:30] <myou> I was searching online but all I find are rules for block devices or ethernet ports
[15:30] <myou> no display outputs
[15:30] <reisio> Mace268: pastebin fdisk output
[15:30] <myou> I'll continue to search
[15:31] <myou> thank you guys =) bye
[15:31] <reisio> myou: right, but it explains how to make a rule quite similar to what I imagine you'd want
[15:32] <myou> I'll check that agian reisio
[15:32] <myou> thank you
[15:32] <Mace268> the partitions seemed to have disappeared. any way to get them back?
[15:32] <raub> Mace268: in fdisk?
[15:33] <Mace268> with any method, is there a partition rescue for ubuntu?
[15:33] <raub> Possibly; it depends on how brave you feel like
[15:34] <Mace268> or should i boot with my acronis disk manager
[15:34] <raub> Rule 1 is make an iso of the disk and then work on it
[15:34] <Mace268> ok
[15:34] <raub> So to avoid making it any worse
[15:35] <reisio> Mace268: partition? No, but IIRC it installs by default with a rescue _mode_ (that is, boot options)
[15:35] <raub> Then you can start light and throw fsck at it. ext4/3/jfs?
[15:36] <Mace268> ntfs :S
[15:37] <napsc> Mace268: did you run sudo  with fdisk?
[15:37] <Mace268> yes
[15:38] <Mace268> i just looked and i do have a current backup of the data on that partition. probably just as easy to repartition and restore.
[15:38] <raub> napsc: I was wondering if his MBR got boinked
[15:39] <Mace268> they did have old software raid metadata on them

[15:50] <Hukkinen> I loost ctrl commands after configuring laptop volume keys in lxde/opebox
[15:50] <Hukkinen> any hints?
[15:50] <wilee-nilee> ewook, what release are you running, I see debs possibly on the web.
[15:51] <wilee-nilee> is it 12.04?
[15:51] <ewook> 12.04.2
[15:51] <ewook> wilee-nilee: ^^
[15:51] <ewook> yeah.
[15:51] <flipper88_fl> ewook: Which vierant?
[15:52] <ewook> flipper88_fl: what flavor? believe that one runs xubuntu.
[15:52] <wilee-nilee> ewook, looks like a 64 bit wget here use at your own risk. http://pkgs.org/ubuntu-12.04/getdeb-apps-amd64/wiican_<IP_ADDRESS>-1~getdeb1_amd64.deb.html
[15:52] <ewook> wilee-nilee: I found the getdeb-site, but it gives me blank when I try to locate the package.
[15:52] <flipper88_fl> ewook:  /join #xubuntu for further questions
[15:53] <wilee-nilee> ewook, The wget is the key and adding a repository it seems
[15:53] <ewook> wilee-nilee: you google better than me ;). Lol. No thank you, no need to. The package is not tied to any flavor of ubuntu ;)
[15:53] <ewook> flipper88_fl: well, thank you mr echo ;).
[15:55] <msch> how long does it usually take for the first upload to show up in a PPA?
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> ewook: if you add the getdeb ppa you will get updates too
[15:55] <pngl> Hi, my laptop shut down hard when its battery died and now grub says "unknown filesystem". I'm donwloading a LiveCD now; how will I be able to assess the state of my drive?
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> pngl: use fsck from liveCD
[15:56] <ZIPY> pngl: sudo fsck /dev/sdX -y <-- put in the correct path for ur hdd you want to check
[15:57] <pngl> ActionParsnip, ZIPY thank you, I'll try that as soon as I boot the LiveCD
[15:57] <ZIPY> pngl: or use the disk utility and then choose check filesystem if you dont want to use the terminal
[15:57] <ewook> ActionParsnip: I know ;).
[15:57] <viktor> i installed fallout3 via playonlinux, and the sound doesn't work, can anybody tell me how to set a new sound driver on wine?
[15:57] <ewook> ActionParsnip: sadly, the PPA I found is dead - so I got lazy and asked instead of searched for another rep ;).
[15:58] <ewook> I guess no one remembers me anymore, since you kindly tell me things I already know ;).
[15:59] <wilee-nilee> ewook, Lets see 3 feet tall 6 fingers and toes am I right. ;)
[16:00] <ewook> wilee-nilee: yeeees. that's me :p.
[16:00] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[16:01] <ewook> wilee-nilee: but, since I'm on the metric system, I have no idea if you just said that I'm tall and handsome, or short and sturdy :p. oh well, thanks again!
[16:01] <wilee-nilee> ewook, ohh, good comeback.
[16:02] <foreverphysics> Could I have a bit of help here?
[16:02] <ewook> foreverphysics: shoot!
[16:02] <ewook> wilee-nilee: I'm good at that sometimes ;)
[16:02] <gordonjcp> !help | foreverphysics
[16:02] <foreverphysics> I am trying to install Ubuntu, but it's not working very well.
[16:02] <foreverphysics> I have a secondhand computer, which previously crashed
[16:03] <foreverphysics> As in, the entire hard disk crashed, but the data wasn't erased
[16:03] <ewook> foreverphysics: history of ill behaviour? Laptop?
[16:03] <foreverphysics> Yes, laptop.
[16:04] <foreverphysics> It's a pretty old laptop, I think maybe 9 or 10 years
[16:04] <foreverphysics> Anyways, I can't seem to wipe or reformat the drive
[16:04] <ewook> foreverphysics: Have you checked the wiki/forum for any specific issues on that model? Oh. The drive is missbehaving?
[16:04] <foreverphysics> Right now, I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS via a 3.73 GiB flash drive
[16:04] <foreverphysics> Yeah, I'm pretty sure the drive is the thing with the problem...
[16:05] <gordonjcp> foreverphysics: open a terminal, type "dmesg"
[16:05] <gordonjcp> foreverphysics: if there are disk errors, there will be pages and pages of stuff about sense codes
[16:06] <foreverphysics> ...yup
[16:06] <viktor> can anybody help me change the sound driver in wine/POL?
[16:06] <checoimg> Can anyone help to get the latest GStreamer installed on RR. I see it is in the repositories but I don't get the update.
[16:06] <viktor> the other driver is missing
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> foreverphysics: tried dban?
[16:06] <gordonjcp> foreverphysics: you don't have to understand what the errors mean.  The fact that there are errors like that at all indicates your hard disk is on the way out...
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> foreverphysics: you can wipe it with dban :)
[16:06] <foreverphysics> I tried dban
[16:06] <foreverphysics> the computer wouldn't boot dban
[16:06] <checoimg> Can anyone help to get the latest GStreamer installed on RR ? I see it is in the repositories but I don't get the update.
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> foreverphysics: as gordonjcp says, the drive is old and dying, replace it and you'll have a new system :)
[16:07] <foreverphysics> Eh, that is another problem--I can't replace the hard drive
[16:07] <foreverphysics> for several reason, I'll not go into them
[16:07] <ActionParsnip> viktor: do you have sound everywhere else?
[16:07] <foreverphysics> so right now I am just trying to fix all the problems
[16:08] <viktor> ActionParsnip: i have sound in regular desktop, in other POL games, and i had sound the first time i played
[16:08] <viktor> ActionParsnip, think it might make a diff if i changed the wine-version to 1.4?
[16:09] <foreverphysics> Um, there is another problem...when I ran fdisk and gparted, it didn't show up anything except for my flash drive.
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> viktor: depends which version your app likes?
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> foreverphysics: does the drive show up in BIOS?
[16:10] <Guest21027> heii
[16:10] <rebar> hmm this is wierd
[16:10] <eph3meral> not sure how OT this is, but I still haven't found a good conclusion on the intergoogles (and I know what my personal conclusion is)... anyone know a decent high rez (CPI) mouse that doesn't go all whacko on linux? so far all the "gaming" mice I've ever used pretty much behave like they're stuck at the highest DPI setting when I plug them in to a linux machine of any kind
[16:10] <foreverphysics> Yes, I think.
[16:10] <viktor> ActionParsnip, it used to be 1.26.liveless. i don't think this s gonna make a diff, but try anyway
[16:11] <zukeprime> Hey all. Anyone get an "empty" update notification? i.e. nothing in the update window.  Makes me a little suspicious.
[16:11] <ivo_> 66
[16:11] <ivo_> 666
[16:11] <viktor> i had a similar problem with doom3 a very long time ago and fixed it by changing the sounddriver, but don't know how to do that
[16:11] <rebar> when installing ubuntu 13.04 and choosing to install along side with windows 7 does it installs automaticly on my only free partition?
[16:11] <oz__> I've just installed Apache server (lamp) but when i go to '/var/www' in PCmanFM it wont give me permission the create a file. help
[16:13] <viktor> ActionParsnip, doesn't even start now, might work to change the audio driver, alsa to oss. can you tell me how to do that?
[16:15] <viktor> ActionParsnip, the sound only goes if i load a saved game
[16:16] <guy3> hi
[16:16] <guy3> guys, can I use gnome without a videocard?
[16:17] <irreverant> well look what I found!
[16:17] <irreverant> a screen shot with nonother than our very own actionparsnip on google!
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> viktor: I'd ask in #winehq
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> irreverant: huh?
[16:18] <irreverant> well the ubuntu room too
[16:18] <sudarshan> hi can anyone suggest a messenger for using and searching yahoo groups
[16:18] <irreverant> http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.bitlbee.org/img/screenshot-irssi_sawfish.png&imgrefurl=http://www.bitlbee.org/main.php/screenshots.html&h=344&w=495&sz=7&tbnid=Ro4rWEi3FLww3M:&tbnh=85&tbnw=122&zoom=1&usg=__QVixCjcRoAB0GIxu4rgcVwGs0NI=&docid=eDBB6oDaw2V7ZM&sa=X&ei=Z8QDUoG9AqKMiAK90YGIBA&ved=0CDMQ9QEwAQ&dur=270#imgdii=Ro4rWEi3FLww3M%3A%3BZ4U6W3_uoUmCeM%3BRo4rWEi3FLww3M%3A
[16:18] <FloodBot1> irreverant: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:18] <oz__> how can i alter the file permissions so i can make changes in /var/www apache
[16:18] <oz__> apache folder*
[16:18] <viktor> ActionParsnip, i'll try that
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> irreverant: haha I get around
[16:18] <irreverant> lol!
[16:18] <sudarshan> mr oz___
[16:19] <sudarshan> you can use terminal
[16:19] <irreverant> i was looking for screenshots of irssi to use and-lo-and-behold... i was like Iknow that guy!
[16:19] <ActionParsnip> oz__: if you add your user to the group with ownership of the folder, you will get that access
[16:19] <ActionParsnip> irreverant: you just made my day
[16:19] <irreverant> your welcome...
[16:20] <irreverant> later guys
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> irreverant: you're    as in 'you are'
[16:21] <sudarshan> oz: go into terminal>>sudo -s>>enter your root password>>then cd to the folder www
[16:21] <ActionParsnip> sudarshan: -i    is advised, uses the user's profile
[16:22] <AlHafoudh> hi all
[16:22] <sudarshan> then you can change the file permissions using "chmod 777 *.*" for changing all permission to accessible to all
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> !danger
[16:23] <AlHafoudh> i have disable ipv6, I see no ipv6 address on my ethX, but curl, wget and apt still want to access DNS hostname by their IPv6 addresses, what is wrong? what did I forget?
[16:23] <llutz> sudarshan: don't suggest chmod 777, its nonsense in most cases
[16:23] <sudarshan> ok then what is preferable?
[16:23] <sudarshan> instead of 777
[16:23] <llutz> sudarshan: depends on the situation, keep it as restricted as possible
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> AlHafoudh: have you added the boot option:  ipv6.disable=1
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> sudarshan: using correct groups and access
[16:24] <raub> sudarshan: least access
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> sudarshan: 777 is not suitable for 99.9999999999999% of what people suggest it for and you can break OSes and/or make them unsecure
[16:24] <sudarshan> sometimes *.js files becomes not accessible by apache webserver.
[16:25] <sudarshan> ok sorry dont use chmod 777 even I also will stop using it.
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> sudarshan: it is especially bad for public facing services like apache. Yeah give EVERYBODY full access.... think about it
[16:25] <raub> Then make sure the files are either owned by the apache group (www-data?) or www-data is part of the other group
[16:25] <llutz> sudarshan: webserver runs as www-data/www-data, so just make sure that user/group can _read_ your files
[16:25] <llutz> sudarshan: no need to give write-access etc.pp
[16:25] <raub> You are not running WinXP
[16:26] <sudarshan> can anyone suggest me some good place where to get reference of all this.
[16:26] <foreverphysics> Here's a question: I help run a website completely run by an Ubuntu server
[16:27] <foreverphysics> so would it hurt if we moved some stuff over to something...not Ubuntu?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> foreverphysics: 1) install LAMP   2) Rejoice
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> foreverphysics: html is a defacto standard so as long as the server can access the code etc, it should be fine
[16:28] <Lope> sudo -s | useradd foo | passwd foo | mkdir /home/bob/foo | chmod 777 /home/bob/foo | chown foo:foo /home/bob/foo | su foo -c 'ls /home/bob/foo' | << permission denied? If I do it anywhere else it works. (/home/bob is ecryptfs) how can I allow foo to access /home/bob/foo?
[16:28] <raub> foreverphysics: paths and some small config stuff might change
[16:28] <AlHafoudh> yeah, that did the trick ActionParsnip
[16:28] <foreverphysics> Nah, it's more that the server keeps crashing...
[16:28] <raub> but otherwise you are good
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> sudarshan: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2338641/in-a-php-apache-linux-context-why-exactly-is-chmod-777-dangerous
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Lope: why 777 ?
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> is it 777 day today or something??
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> 'sake
[16:29] <zigmun> should i type the two commands: "sudo ufw allow X on tun0 from any to any" with X=in and X=out, in order to allow all connections from and to my VPN (openvpn with network-manager)?
[16:30] <Lope> ActionParsnip: to leave no doubt that its a Posix permission issue.
[16:30] <sudarshan> 777 is full access of file to everyone.. As suggested don't use it
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Lope: what is the output of:  ls -l /home/bob/foo
[16:30] <raub> sudarshan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_permissions is a good start
[16:31] <Lope> ActionParsnip: nothing, its empty. but there is no error.
[16:31] <sudarshan> can anyone tell me how can i search and access yahoo group from messenger on ubuntu?
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Lope: what is the output of: ls -la /home/bob/foo
[16:32] <llutz>  ls -ld /home/bob/foo
[16:33] <Lope> drwxrwxrwx 2 foo foo 4096 Aug  8 17:13 /home/bob/foo
[16:33] <Lope> perhaps bob needs x permission on /home/bob
[16:33] <Pici> Execute is always needed in order to traverse into a directory.
[16:36] <javier_> hi. I need to install windows 7 aside of ubuntu. I have a prepared partition for that in nfts format, but when I start the installation dvd, it says there is no suitable partition where to install windows. Which are the requirements of the partition that I might be missing? Thanks!!!
[16:37] <daftykins> javier_: you can't do it like that, Windows likes to have two partitions (a 100MB one prior to the C:) so just let it create them in empty space itself
[16:37] <Lope> Basically I want some general purpose storage space on my PC that is encrypted. I run windows VM's I want to give them access to some of the dirs (via samba shares)
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> javier_: leave unpartitioned space, it'll be ok. Not sure how this is Ubuntu related as you are installing WIndows
[16:38] <javier_> daftykins, so, I should just delete the partition (using gparted for instance) and tell the installer to use the free space...
[16:39] <javier_> ActionParsnip, I'm sorry, I thought was the right place to ask about it. My apologies
[16:39] <javier_> daftykins, thanks!
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> javier_: try in ##windows
[16:39] <javier_> ActionParsnip, thanks for the advise, won't happen again
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> javier_: if you already have Ubutnu installed, you will need to put grub on the MBR as the Windows installer will blindly overwrite it
[16:40] <sudarshan> javier_: before doing so just install boot repair in ubuntu. As after installing windows ubuntu will not work. You will have to use boor repair from live usb.
[16:40] <javier_> sudarshan, thanks! I was counting on that from my previous experience :) but thanks for the advise!
[16:41] <sudarshan> creating live usb installing boot repair into it and replacing grub using boot repair is the easy way.
[16:41] <dirac> 306 games run whit wine, 110 linux native games instaled in my kubuntu 10.04
[16:41] <javier_> sudarshan, yes, I will do exactly like that. My boot cd is already waiting
[16:41] <ActionParsnip> dirac: shame 10.04 is EOL and no longer supported
[16:42] <wilee-nilee> ActionParsnip, If you install in a free space windows will make 2 partitions 1 a boot, be sure to not go past the limitations of primaries and make that disk dynamic, a pre-formatted ntfs with a manual install to it will cut out the boot partition.
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> wilee-nilee: might be XP ;)
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> wilee-nilee: oh it is 7
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> wilee-nilee: yeah the boot recovery partition, or whatever its called
[16:42] <wilee-nilee> ActionParsnip, Heh yah. ;)
[16:43] <wilee-nilee> ActionParsnip, Lets call it the bit defender partition, thats all its for except maybe a recovery on a oem.
[16:44] <wilee-nilee> or whatever that windows encryption is called
[16:45] <oz__> sudo chown {username} /var/www
[16:45] <oz__> thanks
[16:46] <oz__> does anyone know the command to stop LAMP
[16:46] <oz__> apathe php and mysql
[16:46] <Pici> oz__: sudo service apache2 stop
[16:46] <ikonia> oz__: you stop apache and mysql as two different things
[16:46] <ikonia> oz__: lamp is not a service, it's a group of applications
[16:47] <oz__> oh , true
[16:47] <wilee-nilee> ActionParsnip, I meant that first post at the user, its a bit early here, no caffeine yet. ;)
[16:54] <rebar> can I install ubuntu on a hardrive where one partition is used by windows for storage?
[16:54] <wilee-nilee> rebar, Sure.
[16:55] <rebar> hmm, how do I choose that partition to install to from the 13.04 installasion?
[16:55] <oz__> im after a nice gui to stop and start all lamp applications. Does anyone know anything?
[16:55] <rebar> I just get option to "install along windows" "replace windows with ubuntu" and then "something else"
[16:55] <reisio> rebar: I'd do something else myself
[16:55] <daftykins> oz__: you're performing actions that are typically command line level server administrator ones, you should really learn to do it right or not at all
[16:55] <rebar> the partition is unallocated
[16:56] <reisio> rebar: the something else implies "manual" partitioning, which amounts to saying where you want / and swap to be, basically
[16:57] <rebar> okay, I dosen't understand how this part work. I know wht swap, home, root etc is
[16:57] <oz__> daftykins: ok. i'll take that on bord
[16:57] <rebar> I guess I have allocate the "free space" with a file system first?
[16:57] <rebar> but what should I choose?
[16:57] <rebar> ext4?
[16:58] <researcher123> I use Ubuntu 13.04.It was working well 2 weeks ago but suddenly slowed down.Browser & all application open too slowly.ANy help?
[16:58] <reisio> rebar: ext4 is a good default choice
[16:58] <daftykins> rebar: yep make a / (root) partition of ext4
[16:58] <reisio> rebar: you'll see something like http://radu.cotescu.com/uploads/wpuploads/2009/06/Ubuntu-partitions.png
[16:58] <reisio> rebar: one will be ntfs already, that's your Windows' storage partition, leave that alone
[16:58] <reisio> rebar: and make two new ones, one ext4 with Used set to '/' (root), and one swap
[16:59] <reisio> and any others you might want
[17:02] <rebar> making the swap partition now, what type should it be? ,primary, logical and beginning of this space or end of this space
[17:03] <daftykins> logical, equal to your RAM size or to a max of 4GB
[17:05] <Scriptonaut> Could somebody explain to me how I remove all my old wireless drivers and exclusively use b43
[17:05] <Guest32093> my battery slows down faster on ubuntu ! can you help me ?
[17:05] <Scriptonaut> I think I have a bunch installed like wl
[17:05] <Scriptonaut> ssb
[17:05] <Scriptonaut> etc
[17:06] <daftykins> Scriptonaut: were they modules or installed packages?
[17:06] <Scriptonaut> I got them all through sudo apt-get install
[17:06] <Scriptonaut> so packages?
[17:06] <Scriptonaut> not sure
[17:06] <Guest32093> my battery slows down faster on ubuntu ! can you help me please
[17:06] <reisio> Guest32093: what makes you think that
[17:07] <Guest32093> there is a difference when using Windows8
[17:07] <reisio> Guest32093: what makes you think that
[17:08] <Guest32093> reısıo there is a difference when using Windows8
[17:08] <daftykins> Scriptonaut: yep packages, so run sudo apt-get remove <those> <packages> <here>
[17:09] <daftykins> Scriptonaut: to be doubly sure you may even sudo apt-get remove --purge <packages>
[17:09] <reisio> Guest32093: what makes you think that
[17:09] <Guest32093> ı told you
[17:10] <oz__> I thought phpmyadmin would have a .php interface to graphically alter the sql data?
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: do you mean discharges faster in Ubuntu than Windows?
[17:10] <Scriptonaut> daftykins, could you tell me how to see which drivers I have installed thus far?
[17:10] <geri_> hi i look for a pdf writer to edit pdf documents...any recommendations?
[17:10] <Guest32093> Yeah exactly
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> geri_: pdfedit
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: what does that have to do with "slowing down"?
[17:11] <reisio> geri_: inkscape might be more appropriate, depending
[17:11] <geri_> ActionParsnip: ok?
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> geri_: libreoffice perhaps
[17:11] <reisio> editing PDF is kind of hell, regardless
[17:11] <Guest32093> sorry  about the englısh
[17:11] <daftykins> Scriptonaut: if there is a way, i don't know it
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: does the system have a make and model?
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: does it have a switchable GPU?
[17:12] <Guest32093> Yeah
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> geri_: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/list-of-pdf-editing-tools-for-ubuntu.html
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: what is it!?
[17:12] <Guest32093> Samsung serıes 5 ultra
[17:12] <Guest32093> no swıtchable gpu
[17:13] <Scriptonaut> so, I did purge, but under "additional drivers" the sta broadcom driver is still there
[17:13] <kostkon> geri_, here you go :P https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/pdf-studio-8-pro/
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: so if you run:   sudo lshw -C display    you don't see an Nvidia and an Intel GPU? I'm seeing it only having Intel online but I want to be sure
[17:14] <geri_> pdf edit is not in the tree?
[17:14] <Guest32093> ın fact ı dont know ı am usıng wındows
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: and what is the output of:   cat /etc/issue
[17:15] <Guest32093> ı wıll try thıs commandes later
[17:15] <reisio> holy $130 batman
[17:15] <Scriptonaut> do you guys know the term in lshw that refers to wireless interface
[17:15] <Guest32093> but ıs there a dırect cause of thıs
[17:15] <Scriptonaut> so I can grep
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: also make sure you are fully updated and update the BIOS if possible
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: if its still bad, report a bug
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> Scriptonaut: sudo lshw -C network
[17:16] <Guest32093> sudo lshw -C network what thıs do
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: shows the network interfaces in a system
[17:17] <Scriptonaut> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5963282/
[17:17] <Scriptonaut> so here is my output
[17:17] <chrs_> anyone running an x server with ubuntu on the arm chromebook

[17:17] <netlar> geri_: There is Master PDF Editor

[17:17] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | Scriptonaut its a cheap broadcom
[17:17] <chrs_> after startx: Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0
[17:17] <Guest32093> so what ıs the command should ı type
[17:17] <Scriptonaut> ubottu, I know I've read through that entire thing
[17:18] <geri_> netlar: its not for free!
[17:18] <netlar> geri_: Oh sorry did not know you wanted free
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> Scriptonaut: its unclaimed, no driver loaded
[17:18] <geri_> netlar: free :)
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> Scriptonaut: if you run:   sudo modprobe b43    does it work?
[17:18] <Scriptonaut> wth, I have b43-fwcutter installed
[17:19] <Scriptonaut> let me double check
[17:19] <Scriptonaut> wow that worked
[17:19] <Scriptonaut> I'm confused how
[17:19] <Scriptonaut> I did this yesterday
[17:19] <anildigital> Anyone know how to acceess iPhone 5 photos from Ubuntu 12.10
[17:19] <Scriptonaut> so what exactly does modprobe do
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> Scriptonaut: ok, to make it stick, run:   echo b43 | sudo tee -a /etc/modules > /dev/null
[17:20] <Scriptonaut> and what does passing an -r do
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> Scriptonaut: loads the module you name, plus its deps
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> Scriptonaut: the opposite is:  sudo modprobe -r b43     -(r)emove
[17:20] <Guest32093> ActionParsnip what should ı do exactly one by one please
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> !iphone | anildigital
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: I gave you 2 commands, we need the output
[17:21] <ikonia> !permissions
[17:21] <Scriptonaut> thanks actionparsnip
[17:21] <anildigital> ActionParsnip, thanks.. but those link aren't helping
[17:21] <anildigital> not working
[17:21] <Guest32093> ActionParsnip please can you repeat ı am sorry
[17:21] <Scriptonaut> what exactly did that echo command do
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: you can use  pastebin like http://pastie.org to host all the text
[17:21] <CarlFK> inkjet printer is out of black.  is there an easy way to say "print everything in blue" ? (it's a pdf I am printing, so I can't just edit it and select blue"
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: you could scroll up and save me the effort
[17:21] <Guest32093> ok
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: sudo lshw -C display; cat /etc/issue
[17:22] <Guest32093> ActionParsnip thx
[17:22] <Guest32093> ActionParsnip thx a lot
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: your IRC client will scroll up so you can review
[17:22] <Guest32093> ActionParsnip and the output of thıs would be
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> Guest32093: your GPU(s) and release of Ubuntu, please pastebin the text so we can see it (you will need the URL of the paste to post in here)
[17:24] <Guest32093> ActıonParsnıp ok GPU = CPU
[17:25] <Guest32093> ok ok
[17:26] <netlar> geri_: Are you just looking to annotate the file or actually edit the pdf content?
[17:28] <canolucas> hi, i have 3 network cards. 2 for internet, and one for LAN. i'm trying to configure one subnet to work with the two internet cards (if one network connection is down, to be able to use the other one automatically). is there a way to achieve this with iptables? right now i'm using this, but it doesn't work: http://pastie.org/8219214
[17:29] <geri_> netlar: yes i want to edit the pdf file
[17:29] <daftykins> canolucas: #networking would probably be better. are you trying to use the same 0.0 subnet on more than one interface O_O
[17:29] <geri_> netlar: yes edit the pdf content
[17:29] <netlar> geri_: Pretty sure there are no "free" solutions for that, not on any OS
[17:31] <netlar> geri_: I already looked into that few months ago. Was trying to find something for mac at time.  Even linux does not have that.  It may be cause pdf is a proprietary format owned by Adobe
[17:31] <geri_> netlar: damm
[17:31] <oz__> i'm getting a error 404 when trying to access localhost/phpmyadmin . In '/etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf/etc/apache2/apache2.conf' i added 'Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf'. Before i added that i was getting forbidden access
[17:31] <netlar> I know its is dissappointing
[17:31] <Crindle> are you able to replicate the error from a second machine, oz?
[17:32] <netlar> geri_: Is it for an office?
[17:32] <geri_> what?
[17:32] <oz__> crindle, i have been on the ubuntu forum
[17:32] <netlar> geri_: What is the reason you want to edit pdf docs?
[17:33] <geri_> netlar: bc i wrote my cv and need to edit one date....
[17:33] <pngl> After a hard shut down I got GRUB rescue and "unknown filesystem". Now I'm booting from a LiveCD, trying to mount my hard drive I get: "Error mounting ... wrongs fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program or other error in some cases useful info is found in syslog -try dmesg"
[17:33] <geri_> i dont have the latex files here
[17:33] <angs> has anyone here installed ubuntu after windows 8? how can I boot windows 8 from a bootable usb stick?
[17:33] <pngl> ActionParsnip, should I fsck immediately?
[17:33] <netlar> geri_: Then I would just do that in Libre office and then create a new pdf
[17:34] <Crindle> #centos
[17:35] <netlar> geri_: See what I mean? First make the Libre doc then make a pdf doc out of that
[17:36] <oz__> crindle: before i added that line i was getting error 403 Forbidden. Did some googling and it said to add that line, then i was getting 404. Dont know what to do next
[17:37] <Crindle> oz_, I assume this is a recent occurrence and your installation was working at one time?
[17:37] <Crindle> or is this after a fresh install?
[17:37] <pngl> ZIPY: your command gives me no such file or directory. Could it be because my partition is ext4 (I think) ?
[17:38] <oz__> crindle, after a fresh install
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> pngl: if youcan
[17:38] <netlar> Some Distros are out to make a profit right? Does that not make them a pure GNU/Linux distro?
[17:39] <Crindle> oz_, ah okay. that makes sense. phpMyAdmin can be a pain in the butt sometimes
[17:39] <Crindle> it's done this silly thing for me before, where it didn't add a link into the web folder
[17:40] <frinott> netlar: license determines free software status, not the price
[17:40] <Crindle> oz_, try accessing your web folder's root  and add a link
[17:40] <pngl> ZIPY: my bad, I misspelled the device name
[17:40] <Pici> oz__: You should just need to drop a symlink from /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf into /etc/apache2/conf.d/
[17:40] <Crindle> ^
[17:40] <netlar> frinott: So Ubuntu has what license?
[17:41] <Crindle> Pici: exactly
[17:41] <geri_> netlar: hm
[17:42] <rebar> just curios why windows boot manager isn't activated when I boot from my windows drive when grub is activated for the linux drive
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> netlar: http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/licensing
[17:42] <pngl> fsck fixed everything, thank you!
[17:42] <Crindle> oz_: also, it's a super common error and there's a ton of documentation on it, if that fix doesn't work.
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> netlar: went to google and searched for: what license does ubuntu use
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> netlar: that is the top hit.....
[17:43] <daftykins> rebar: that's more of a Windows question i'd wager
[17:43] <netlar> ActionParsnip: thanks
[17:43] <rebar> yeah, just thought it was wierd, shoudl be activated I think
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> netlar: should try doing that sort of thing, works well
[17:44] <DrDittersdorf> Hi all. Does anyone knows how to send html with sendmail?
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> DrDittersdorf: as in the html to text then email that
[17:45] <dirtdawg> I just tried to log on to ubuntuforums.org. I need an Ubuntu One account for that now?
[17:45] <zep> is there a command that a testuser that belongs only to the group testuser can run (maybe he needs to be listed in sudoers first) in order to mount usb stick as if he belonged to the group plugdev/floppy. So he can't access the mounted usb stick dirctly but can cp to it (if he is in sudoers and can run cp as floppy group member).
[17:46] <dirtdawg> Been a member since 2005. I have no idea what email I used to sign up and there doesn't seem to be a way to contact forum support. Can someone help me, please
[17:46] <DrDittersdorf> Actionparship - what ?
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> dirtdawg: you mean an ubuntu member?
[17:46] <Pici> dirtdawg: You can ask in #ubuntuforums
[17:47] <dirtdawg> No, ubuntuforums.org member
[17:47] <dirtdawg> thanks, pici
[17:47] <Crindle> pici: You're super helpful. Very appreciated.
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> DrDittersdorf: if you have html code, do you want to see it as text as it would show in a web browser, or do you want to send the file as-is as an attachment?
[17:49] <DrDittersdorf> Oh. I what to send email in html code, because i need it to be right to left text

[17:49] <p0wp0w|AWAY> wondering if anyone can recommend a cheap second machine to run Ubuntu. I'm a thinkpad fan. Needs to be slim. Cheap, very cheap. Used is fine - only because I have to put my desktop into storage

[17:50] <p0wp0w> ActionParsnip: thanks, will take a look
[17:51] <p0wp0w> needs to be a laptop unfortunately

[17:58] <area51pilot> I can browse an NT domain but not a Workgroup?
[18:01] <angs> I boot windows 8 from usb pendrive that has ubuntu (bootable). I selected "try to install ubuntu", then the screen goes to black and nothing appears. what's wrong with it
[18:02] <gordonjcp> angs: how long did you leave it?
[18:02] <CaptainQuirk> Hi there
[18:02] <angs> 5-10 min
[18:02] <CaptainQuirk> I'm launching a command in gnome-terminal from inside a shell script
[18:02] <CaptainQuirk> problem is, when the command executed by the terminal ends, the terminal closes
[18:02] <angs> is it installing or is it failing I could not understand. doesn't it suppose to show this window http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1347270713.png
[18:03] <CaptainQuirk> I would like to set a prompt for that, so that I can see what has happened in the terminal window during the command execution
[18:03] <rebar> does the sudo apt command only search for packages in the ubuntu software center?
[18:03] <area51pilot> rebar .. in the repositories you hold
[18:03] <CaptainQuirk> I run the command like this in my script « gnome-terminal -e titanium sdk update »
[18:04] <joint> all the ops on freenode are a bunch of gay faggots
[18:12] <geri_> how can i add a user to sudoers?
[18:12] <DrDittersdorf> Thanksss
[18:12] <geri_> sudoers is a group?
[18:15] <darghor> geri_ type visudo on terminal
[18:15] <geri_> ok i did
[18:15] <darghor> find the 'root' entry
[18:15] <geri_> why root?
[18:15] <geri_> i want to add user gerald to run sudo..
[18:15] <darghor> just to organize the file
[18:15] <Pici> geri_: you can add them to the 'sudo' group if this is a recent verion of Ubuntu
[18:15] <Pici> geri_: or if its an older version, it is the admin group.
[18:15] <geri_> pici there is no sudo group exisiting
[18:16] <Pici> geri_: Which release of Ubuntu is this?
[18:16] <geri_> pici red hat :)
[18:16] <Wulframn> Isn't the sudo group "wheel"?
[18:16] <area51pilot> When trying to browse a windows workgroup Im unable, respomse is failed to retrieve list from server, connection timed out.  Any ideas on how to correct ... Ive googled and tried many things and to no avail nothing works, I can browse an NT domain but not a local Windows network, can ping local machines ... used to be able to see ... but now I cant .. this happens often since 12.04 ... currently on 13.04
[18:16] <geri_> i found wheel
[18:16] <Pici> geri_: Then why are you asking in here? This is #ubuntu
[18:16] <Wulframn> geri, add user to wheel
[18:16] <geri_> pici i know should be simillar
[18:16] <Pici> geri_: they're not
[18:16] <geri_> Pici: i found wheel
[18:16] <geri_> so next?
[18:17] <Wulframn> Try using sudo with that account
[18:17] <area51pilot> .
[18:18] <govinda_> is umuntu better than linux?
[18:18] <Wulframn> =(
[18:18] <geri_> who kicked me out?
[18:18] <reisio> govinda_: pardon?
[18:18] <darghor> geri_ i always used the sudo including the username to visudo command
[18:18] <DJones> geri_: Redhat isn't supported in this channel
[18:18] <Pici> geri_: We do not support redhat here. End of discussion.
[18:18] <geri_> good
[18:18] <darghor> locate the "root    ALL=(ALL) ALL" entry
[18:18] <Wulframn> Govinda, Ubuntu is a Linux distro
[18:19] <geri_> darghor: root?
[18:19] <darghor> and add a new line with user ALL=(ALL) ALL
[18:19] <darghor> geri_ just to keep the organization of the file
[18:19] <Pici> darghor: IF you want to support geri_ in PM, thats fine, but please keep redhat support out of this channel.
[18:19] <makaio> Hi
[18:19] <Pici> They have their own channels for support.
[18:19] <darghor> ok, sorry
[18:21] <govinda_> can i istall umunto on my phon?
[18:21] <oz__> Pici, Crindle: cd /etc/apache2/conf.d/
[18:21] <oz__> ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf phpmyadmin should this do it?
[18:22] <OerHeks> govinda_, what is umunto?
[18:22] <govinda_> the other windows
[18:22] <govinda_> for hackers
[18:22] <Pici> oz__: do phpmyadmin.conf instead of something without an extension
[18:22] <Wulframn> o.O
[18:23] <minidino> So I have a bit of a dilemia. In an attempt to back something up (irronic huh) I ran tar -xzvf only I put the name of the file in which I wan't to archive first then the nonexistant file I wanted to create after by mistake. Thus I believe I  partially overwrote the important file I intended to backup (oops). Would there be any way I could mabey recover at least some of the data? I don't believe I completly overwrote it.
[18:23] <oz__> pici: to the phpmyadmin in the www folder?
[18:24] <Wulframn> minidino, that command unzips a file. If it wasn't zipped it shouldn't have done anything.
[18:24] <Pici> oz__: just no...   do: ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf
[18:24] <Pici> oz__: with sudo of course
[18:24] <minidino> Wulframn: my bad I ment -czvf
[18:24] <minidino> was what I ran
[18:24] <minidino> grr im making /all/ the mistakes today...
[18:25] <Wulframn> Have you attempted to verify the contents of the file? They are corrupt?
[18:25] <reisio> minidino: data is likely gone forever
[18:25] <minidino> what if it was not completely overwritten?
[18:26] <minidino> wouldn't some of it still exist just be counted as free space?
[18:26] <Wulframn> Was it a single file?  Sorry buddy
[18:29] <reisio> when data is overwritten, it is gone, 99 times out of 100
[18:30] <minidino> but what if it wasn't completly overwritten?
[18:30] <nicksloan> it should be noted that a separate device is mounted at /mnt
[18:30] <reisio> minidino: then some of it is left
[18:30] <reisio> minidino: was the cumulative file size of the second param less than that of the first?
[18:30] <oz__> pici: now it's a 404
[18:30] <jefgy> my root device is /dev/md5.  it's defined in fstab as /dev/md5.  I'm receiving a warning when I run update-intiramfs "cryptsetup: WARNING: failed to detect canonical device of /dev/md5"  should I be referencing the uuid for md5 instead of the device itself? I.E.  $ blkid /dev/md5  /dev/md5: UUID="5d79c9fb-b720-4895-b48a-4404b1ec9358" TYPE="ext4"
[18:31] <frinott> minidino: there's testdisk, may help. or not
[18:31] <geri_> what is ldap?
[18:31] <Wulframn> jefgy, UUID is preferable
[18:31] <Simon-v__> I tried playing with miredo, and now i can't access the Internet (PCs on the LAN are OK). I suspect some config file got broken, but i can't figure out which. Ping by name fails with a DNS error, ping by IP has 100% packet loss. I tried reinstalling and removing packages, dpkg-reconfigure -a, disabling and blacklisting IPv6 and rebooting. What, besides reinstalling, should i try next?
[18:31] <reisio> nicksloan: well they are different programs...
[18:33] <minidino> So am I correct to think that the size of the first minus the size of the second file would mabey still be on the HDD just counted as freespace by the filesystem?
[18:33] <nicksloan> reisio: that's fair. I'm just trying to figure out why df can tell that my file system is full, but I can't find what is taking all of the space up
[18:33] <reisio> nicksloan: on Ubuntu?
[18:33] <reisio> use 'baobab'
[18:33] <Pici> oz__: hmm. What does ls -l /usr/share/phpmyadmin/index.php say?
[18:34] <Wulframn> minidino, you may get better help over in #linux. None of us here are really data recovery experts AFAIK
[18:34] <jefgy> Wulframn: should I be using the uuid displayed by mdadm --detail /dev/md5 or the uuid from blkid /dev/md5?
[18:34] <Me_> Hello, hello! You are all cordially invited to the legendary humour website YTMND.com! Please register today!
[18:34] <jefgy> and thank you
[18:35] <Wulframn> jefgy, I am unsure
[18:35] <reisio> nicksloan: it's real close to 6.6G by my math
[18:35] <oz__> pici: ls: cannot access /usr/share/phpmyadmin/index.php: No such file or directory
[18:35] <Pici> oz__: How did you install phpmyadmin?
[18:36] <oz__> pici:lamp
[18:36] <nicksloan> reisio: excluding /mnt, which is /dev/sdb1
[18:36] <nicksloan> ?
[18:36] <Pici> oz__: Thats an acronym. Thats not an install method.  Did you use tasksel? Did you use apt?  I can't see how it's getting there at all without including /mnt
[18:37] <oz__> pici: apt
[18:37] <reisio> nicksloan: what makes you think /mnt is /dev/sdb1 ?
[18:38] <Pici> oz__: What does apt-cache policy phpmyadmin say?
[18:38] <oz__> pici: i used sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
[18:39] <oz__> pici: should i have used 'sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ phpmyadmin'
[18:40] <Pici> oz__: the lamp-server task doesn't include phpmyadmin.
[18:40] <nicksloan> reisio: sorry, /dev/sdb. See update: https://gist.github.com/nicksloan/0289208ef15552f77dd3
[18:40] <Pici> oz__: so I'm not sure why you have anything in /etc/phpmyadmin/ if thats the case.
[18:41] <reisio> nicksloan: are these commands you ran at various random times pasted together, or did you just rerun them all one after the other, just now?
[18:42] <oz__> pici: i must have had it installed before and removed it using package manager
[18:42] <nicksloan> the last two were run at the same time.
[18:42] <nicksloan> well, sequentially
[18:42] <Pici> oz__: thats possible.  So just do sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin and then you should be set.
[18:42] <nicksloan> (I'm manually obscuring my hostname, in case you noticed that.
[18:42] <reisio> that makes the last two relevant to one another, and not what precedes them
[18:42] <killer> hey
[18:42] <reisio> run them all at once please
[18:43] <reisio> hey, killer
[18:43]  * reisio always wanted to say that
[18:43] <killer> ffmpeg is unable to convert mp4 to avi format , I think I need some gstreamer plugins
[18:43] <Codi-> ciao
[18:43] <reisio> killer: or a proper ffmpeg install
[18:43] <reisio> killer: but why would you want avi, mp4 is better
[18:44] <nicksloan> reisio: hmm, well, in the meantime, I've stopped postgres, and umounted /mnt/pgstorage and /mnt
[18:44] <BluesKaj> killer, just use VLC to play the mp4 files
[18:45] <reisio> nicksloan: when trying to make things add up, you should really only care about the present
[18:45] <reisio> because things change over time
[18:45] <nicksloan> and now df is reporting that /dev/sda1 is 22%, instead of 88% immediately prior to unmounting
[18:47] <oz__> pici: thanks man!
[18:48] <nicksloan> remounting them left it at 22%
[18:48] <nicksloan> very weird
[18:48] <uberk> hello?
[18:48] <Wulframn> Hi!
[18:49] <uberk> im havbing a problem where my display isnt being show correctly
[18:49] <bkfitz> anyone here familiar with iptables persistant w/in ubuntu
[18:49] <uberk> its being wrapped around the screen and separated by a black line
[18:49] <Wulframn> !ask | uberk
[18:49] <uberk> when i take a screencap, it appears fine though
[18:51] <uberk> nicksloan, was that directed to me?
[18:51] <bkfitz> anyone here familiar with iptables persistant w/in ubuntu -> seen multiple ways with multiple persistant files /etc/iptables-up.rules, /etc/iptables.up.rules, /etc/iptables/rules, /etc/iptables/rules.v4 -> which of these is correct if I want to use the iptables-persistent service to enable them upon reboot
[18:53] <angs> I have windows on my laptop and I would like it to have double boot windows and ubuntu. I inserted a bootable ubuntu usb pendrive then selected "install ubuntu alongside windows8".when I reboot the laptop, it does not show the boot menu and it only boots from windows 8. how can I make it doal boot?
[18:53] <joe> hello everybody
[18:53] <_andyj_> bkfitz: are you using ufw?
[18:53] <nicksloan> uberk: nope
[18:54] <daftykins> !grub | angs
[18:54] <ezra-s> bkfitz, you can just add iptables manually and then do "iptables-save"
[18:54] <bkfitz> _andyj_: no
[18:54] <_andyj_> bkfitz: as ezra-s said...  iptables-save and iptables-restore
[18:54] <reisio> hey joe
[18:54] <joe> i need help with my computer
[18:54] <_andyj_> bkfitz: ufw does this for you
[18:54] <reisio> what's wrong?
[18:54] <bkfitz> _andyj_: yeah ufw blows
[18:55] <joe> i want to install a theme on gnome
[18:55] <geri_> i run fdisk -l but it does not show any output!?
[18:55] <Wulframn> !ask | joe
[18:55] <Frogging|work> How do I get cron to stop spamming my syslog with job announcements that run every single minute?
[18:55] <joe> but i didnt have a .themes folder
[18:55] <ezra-s> geri_, try it with sudo first
[18:55] <joe> so i made one in the correct dictionary
[18:55] <angs> daftykins, is it a valid documentation to install it on windows 8?  as I see all methods (wubi, pen drive installation ,etc.) are not working on windows 8
[18:56] <geri_> oh
[18:56] <_andyj_> bkfitz: to each their own, all of the firewalls use iptables on the back end pretty much
[18:56] <geri_> ^^
[18:56] <joe> then, i looked for it at tweak tools but  i cant find it
[18:56] <bkfitz> _andyj_: yeah... i mean ufw is fine but i had problems getting it to run on reboot
[18:56] <daftykins> angs: can you tell if you installed ubuntu in UEFI mode?
[18:57] <_andyj_> bkfitz: that's odd, it should have added itself to your init when you installed it
[18:57] <bkfitz> _andyj_: agreed... but for whatever reason mine never did... even tried reinstalling it... didn't want to write init scripts myself so I said forget it I'll just use iptables
[18:58] <joe> i installed gnome but when i went to install a theme i didnt know how. so i made th e .themes folder and put my theme in there. but when i opened tweak tools and went to themes it didnt have the theme all it had was defult
[18:58] <joe> help?
[18:59] <angs> daftykins, no I have not installed anything. I was following the instructions that google shows but those instructions are not working. do you suggest a valid instruction to follow?
[18:59] <daftykins> angs: you said you installed ubuntu alongside windows 8 - correct?
[18:59] <angs> ubuntu did not ask any option, just language, keyboard, location, name, password, etc. then hard disk size
[18:59] <bkfitz> so does anyone know which rules file iptables-persistant loads upon reboot in ubuntu
[19:00] <angs> daftykins, yes after all it did not ask any other option
[19:00] <daftykins> !uefi | angs
[19:00] <daftykins> angs: have a look there, it'll show you whether you would've booted in UEFI mode or not
[19:01] <angs> daftykins,ok thank you. If I have UEFI, will I be no longer use the current bios?
[19:01] <angs> the one that I have one
[19:02] <KenSharp> Remote Desktop Viewer - is there a way for me to send a specific key combination to the server? For example, CTRL+ALT+F2? obviously if I do that now then my client machine switches to VT2
[19:02] <joe> i installed gnome but when i went to install a theme i didnt know how. so i made th e .themes folder and put my theme in there. but when i opened tweak tools and went to themes it didnt have the theme all it had was defult. help?
[19:02] <daftykins> KenSharp: you can't view a TTY over a remote graphical protocol.
[19:03] <daftykins> angs: the BIOS is most likely EFI, so windows 8 and ubuntu will likely be installed in EFI mode. so you'll need to find a guide on installing grub-efi to fix it
[19:03] <KenSharp> daftykins: yes I can, it's a virtualbox image
[19:04] <rebar> anyonne having problem with 13.04 craching when using the file manager?
[19:04] <ezra-s> rebar, not me
[19:05] <ezra-s> rebar, try apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[19:05] <rebar> really wierd, works perfect on my laptop but jsut craches on my pc
[19:05] <joe> i guess no help
[19:05] <ezra-s> rebar, sometimes .config or something bellow goes wild
[19:06] <ezra-s> rebar, in the same pc try creating another account
[19:06] <ezra-s> and see if file manager crashes the same for that other user
[19:06] <ezra-s> if not.. then your cconfig is screwed
[19:06] <rebar> gonna try the apt-get
[19:06] <_andyj_> bkfitz: I don't think iptables has a default init script, you'll have to make one
[19:07] <ezra-s> checking .xsession-errors might help too
[19:07] <ezra-s> _andyj_, I believe it does when you do iptables-save
[19:07] <ezra-s> it's been a while since I used it
[19:08] <ezra-s> so I can't say for sure
[19:08] <rebar> fuu crached agin at the home screen
[19:08] <_andyj_> iptables-save > "your rules file goes here" ...  and iptables-restore < "your rules file goes here" ?
[19:09] <_andyj_> iptables-save just outputs current loaded rules
[19:09] <ezra-s> rebar, I gave you a few tips already, commenting in the channel all the crashes you are having realtime won't help you
[19:09] <rebar> yeah, but I tried apt-get update and it crached during that
[19:09] <rebar> but ye, gonna try again
[19:09] <ezra-s> mmm
[19:09] <_andyj_> oh nevermind it is saving to a default location
[19:10] <bkfitz> _andyj_: I believe iptables itself is loaded automatically by ubuntu at startup, but it will resort back to the default rules... so you can either write a script to edit the rules and put that into an init script, or use a service like iptables-persistant which reads a file, overwrites the iptables rules, and is loaded on reboot by default
[19:11] <bkfitz> so I'll put the iptables-persistent in an init script and let it load the rules
[19:11] <bkfitz> only prob is i don't know which file to put the rules in... differing opinions here... but the iptables-persistent site seems to indicate /etc/iptables/rules
[19:11] <bkfitz> https://github.com/zertrin/iptables-persistent
[19:13] <_andyj_> well that script says to put them at /etc/iptables/rules
[19:13] <_andyj_> so iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules
[19:15] <bkfitz> _andyj_: yep...  should have googled it before coming here :)
[19:15] <_andyj_> bkfitz: no worries, I do that sometimes too
[19:18] <Oran> Hello guys, iam a bloody noob and need some help please: i mde a ubuntu server 12.04  and now i want to connect to it via ssh, ssh is installed at the server but which is the right ip i need to connect to the server from external devices?
[19:19] <_andyj_> Oran: run ifconfig and check for an address not in 192.168.x.x, 172.16.x.x, 10.x.x.x
[19:20] <llutz> Oran: on server "curl ifconfig.me", use the ip shown
[19:21] <Oran> andyj_ i checked for the external ip every device got its like 77.x but it doesnt work (but i can ping it)
[19:21] <rektide> hi. an /etc/init.d/ script uwsgi is failing to start. how can i get more information about it's failure?
[19:21] <_andyj_> Oran: did you start the ssh service?
[19:21] <rektide> i'd love to try to run whatever ubuntu's init script does, but it's a fucking insanely complicated script and i have no idea how to hack it to tell me what the frell it actually runs
[19:22] <Oran> i installed it and restarted the server andyj_
[19:22] <area51pilot> When trying to browse a windows workgroup Im unable, respomse is failed to retrieve list from server, connection timed out.  Any ideas on how to correct ... Ive googled and tried many things and to no avail nothing works
 I can browse an NT domain but not a local Windows network
 can ping local machines ... used to be able to see ... but now I cant .. this happens often sinc 12.04 ... currently on 13.04
[19:22] <IdleOne> rektide: No cursing in here please
[19:23] <rektide> IdleOne: help me and i go away
[19:23] <_andyj_> Oran: sudo service ssh restart  just to make sure it's running
[19:23] <rektide> :p
[19:23] <_andyj_> Oran: if it is, you may need to allow ssh traffic through your firewall
[19:23] <rektide> i'm very curious whether this is uwsgi's overmechanization or whether ubuntu is to blame for this monstrosoity
[19:23] <rektide> frelling frak-bolted contraption is not easy to debug
[19:24] <rektide> there's more code in /etc/init.d/uwsgi than there is in most of the webapps it runs. :/
[19:24] <_andyj_> Oran: if you didn't change the default port and are using ufw.  you can use: sudo ufw allow ssh
[19:24] <Oran> andyj_ i made portforwardinbg from port 22 to the server
[19:24] <Oran> what is ufw?
[19:25] <_andyj_> Oran: default firewall wrapper for iptables
[19:25] <Oran> i can tell u the names of the routers or where does this this ufw runs?
[19:26] <_andyj_> Oran: it's part of the default ubuntu server install
[19:26] <_andyj_> I think
[19:27] <Oran> andyj_ ohh than the firewall gonna block me i guess
[19:30] <ElFizbanio> are there any recording apps that are not 'recordmydesktop'
[19:36] <wilee-nilee> ElFizbanio, You might be specific for help, in the channel, linux has a lot apps in general, however recording the desktop is a bit this I believe
[19:36] <wilee-nilee> bit thin*
[19:36] <ElFizbanio> just something better to record my screen
[19:38] <jhutchins> ElFizbanio: Try aptitude search ~drecording
[19:40] <Pici> !screencast | dunno how updated this is, but
[19:45] <kostkon> ElFizbanio, Kazam or vokoscreen
[19:45] <Mace268> should i keep brassero or go with k3b?
[19:45] <ElFizbanio> thanks all of you
[19:45] <lonewulf85> Hey does anyone in here have experience using Playonlinux?
[19:46] <reisio> lonewulf85: nope, but some people have
[19:46] <BluesKaj> !playonlinux
[19:46] <BluesKaj> hmm
[19:46] <Wulframn> !gaming
[19:47] <reisio> !uselessspam
[19:47] <BluesKaj> !info playonlinux
[19:47] <Wulframn> There you go
[19:47] <reisio> yup, ubottu clearly has experience
[19:47] <BluesKaj> yup , surprised there's no url attached
[19:48] <reisio> a url to experienced people? :p
[19:48] <Wulframn> Ideally
[19:48] <reisio> heh
[19:48] <reisio> someone really should have thought of that earlier
[19:49] <BluesKaj> I assume he's inexperienced, otherwise he wouldn't be asking :)
[19:49] <Wulframn> Just a failure in the scripter's part really
[19:49] <lonewulf85> I just am wondering if I would be able to mod Skyrim with the nexus mod manager in playonlinux
[19:50] <Wulframn> I don't see why not.
[19:50] <reisio> lonewulf85: not likely: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=13777
[19:50] <Mace268> i don't feel like making coasters here and have a lot of data to burn... should i use brassero or k3b. I just want to get some general opinions.
[19:50]  * Wulframn stands corrected
[19:51] <reisio> Mace268: cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=/dev/cdrom path/to/image/file
[19:52] <reisio> or: growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=path/to/image/file -speed=4
[19:52] <jhutchins> Mace268: You should use whichever one you're comfortable with, or are already running the environment for.  There are no notable problems with either one doing the job correctly.
[19:52] <reisio> or get a usb stick
[19:52] <jhutchins> Mace268: The CLI utilities are what actually do the work.
[19:52] <Oran> hey guys i still cant connect to my ubuntu server, iallowed ufw
[19:52] <Mace268> thanks jhutchins i heard some bad about brassero but i figured it wouldn't be default for ubuntu if it was junk
[19:53] <Oran> but how to configure the router?
[19:53] <jhutchins> Mace268: Yeah, pretty much any problems were worked out a long time ago (as software goes).
[19:54] <jhutchins> Mace268: That's not saying there aren't inherent layer 8 problems.  k3b's been good to me.
[19:54] <jhutchins> Oran: What sort of device is the router?
[19:55] <angs> what is the difference if I run ubuntu on VMware or install it on a hdd then boot it from the hdd?
[19:56] <reisio> angs: performance, hardware access (graphics acceleration)
[19:56] <cpaasch> hello, I have a problem with linux-crashdump on ubuntu 13.04. The crash-kernel does not get loaded... I tried out to remove the arguments as described in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/CrashdumpRecipe#Troubleshooting, but it does not help...
[19:56] <reisio> reliability (not relying on the host OS)
[19:56] <Oran> u mean the vendor? jhutchins
[19:56] <lonewulf85> angs, with vmware you are stuck with the specs that vmware gave you with the hdd you get the specs your system should have.
[19:56] <Oran> its a tplink
[19:56] <angs> reisio, what hardware would be inaccessible?
[19:56] <reisio> angs: the better parts of most graphics hardware
[19:57] <barbara______> How do I disable the password for when I go into suspend mode?
[19:58] <barbara______> when the computer turns on it asks for none which is what i want
[19:58] <reisio> barbara______: hrmm?
[19:59] <KenSharp> barbara______: do you mean it automatically logs you in on boot?
[19:59] <KenSharp> barbara______: and there should be an option in the power settings "ask for password on resume" or such
[20:00] <barbara______> yes
[20:00] <barbara______> it says to go into configuration editor
[20:00] <barbara______> i typed gconfi-editor in terminal it doesnt launch
[20:00] <barbara______> gconf-editor
[20:01] <sas> k
[20:01] <KenSharp> barbara______: I think it's in preferences --> power. I THINK.
[20:02] <barbara______> thanks
[20:02] <barbara______> let me look
[20:02] <KenSharp> ugh, can't find it. something else that's changed when I wasn't looking
[20:02] <Mace268> it's under Brightness & Lock on 13.04
[20:03] <barbara______> i just found it thanks
[20:03] <barbara______> :)
[20:03] <KenSharp> barbara______: I don't think gconf-editor is installed as default, you might need to install it
[20:03] <KenSharp> oh well
[20:07] <lonewulf85> Thinking of building my dream pc with Ubuntu only any recommends on where to start?
[20:07] <KenSharp> Remote Desktop Viewer - is there a way for me to send a specific key combination to the server (Virtualbox)? For example, CTRL+ALT+F2? obviously if I do that now then my client machine switches to VT2
[20:07] <andrii> hi all , guys I need you help...
[20:07] <reisio> KenSharp: chvt can be handy in that situation
[20:08] <andrii> I've just installed LM15 to my laptop

[20:08] <sqrt7744> is anyone here on saucy? I upgraded out of necessity a few days ago, and not being able to roll the mouse wheel on the volume icon to change the volume is really annoying. Am I experiencing a bug or is this just a poor design change, ala Nautilus?
[20:09] <armin> ok it's really like that - when doing an /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon start/stop, the permissions on /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json are being reset to transmission:transmission / 0600, i just double checked that.
[20:09] <wilee-nilee> 13.10 | sqrt7744
[20:09] <DJones> sqrt7744: You should ask that in #ubuntu+1 the people there are most likely to be using Saucy
[20:09] <armin> could anyone point out where this is being set and how to fix this madness?
[20:10] <KenSharp> reisio: the problem being that it's a knackered X session so I can't enter any command at all :(
[20:10] <KenSharp> but i agree, that would be useful! :)
[20:10] <sqrt7744> armin, you have to stop the daemon first
[20:10] <andrii> actually I think it doesn't matter , I understand that LM isn't supported here, but firstly I was trying ubuntu
[20:10] <sqrt7744> armin, sudo service transmission-daemon stop
[20:11] <andrii> the problem is the same..
[20:11] <andrii> I just need some good advice
[20:11] <sqrt7744> armin, wait sorry i read your comment wrong
[20:12] <armin> sqrt7744: http://krypton.darkbyte.org/foo.png
[20:12] <armin> sqrt7744: that's what happens.
[20:12] <jkyle> I installed the virtualenvwrapper package, but it didn't install the init scripts (at least from what I can see from dpkg -L output)
[20:13] <armin> sqrt7744: i stop the daemon, change the permissions on settings.json to my liking, i start the service and it changes that back.
[20:13] <jkyle> pip puts virtualenvwrapper.sh into /usr/local/bin, can't find i tthough
[20:13] <armin> sqrt7744: and i would really like to know where that happens because it doesn't seem to occur in the init-script.
[20:13] <sqrt7744> armin, yes i understand. i had a similar problem, trying to remember how I changed it. what exactly do you want to do?
[20:15] <sqrt7744> armin, maybe you want to run the daemon as a different user?
[20:16] <sqrt7744> armin, if so, ust edit /etc/init/transmission-daemon.conf and on the line after kill timeout 30, add (without quotes) "setuid yourusername"

[20:21] <DJones> Cattolico90: Its "/join #ubuntu-it" without the quotes
[20:21] <Cattolico90> i have done
[20:21] <Cattolico90> thanks
[20:25] <wilee-nilee> Ascavasaion, For ubuntu?
[20:26] <Ascavasaion> wilee-nilee: Yes, unless it cannot be run on the machine.
[20:26] <wilee-nilee> Ascavasaion, Not sure here, you might look on the web to see.
[20:27] <Ascavasaion> wilee-nilee: Aaaah, okay.
[20:28] <andrii> guys could someone explain how can I to install wifi driver into ubuntu .. I've already copied a needed *.ucode file to the /lib/firmware , rebooted but it doesn't help....
[20:28] <wilee-nilee> Ascavasaion, Top of the list on google with a "HP Proliant dl380 ubuntu" search, http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/200810-1117/
[20:29] <wilee-nilee> andrii, Identify the wifi hardware to the channel.
[20:30] <andrii> sure , there is Intel Corporation WiFi link 5100 agn
[20:30] <Ascavasaion> wilee-nilee: Thanks a stack :)
[20:30] <gregor3005> hi, does use cisco asdm with an asa on ubuntu 13 x86_64
[20:31] <ESphynx> Hey guys... where is the Unity dev chan?
[20:31] <andrii> could I put the link there I used for downloading ?
[20:31] <gregor3005> on my side the javaws crash weather i use oracle java or openjdk
[20:31] <MonkeyDust> ESphynx  start in #ubuntu-app-dev
[20:31] <MonkeyDust> ESphynx  start in #ubuntu-app-devel
[20:31] <wilee-nilee> andrii, If you run lspci in the terminal you should see the wifi info if this is an internal device.
[20:31] <ESphynx> MonkeyDust: I mean the actual developers of Unity...
[20:32] <ESphynx> or is that what you meant? :)
[20:32] <andrii> Intel Corporation WiFi link 5100 agn - I'm retyping the info
[20:32] <wilee-nilee> andrii, WE have no idea you have the correct driver, it helps us to see what is up from the lowest level, the hardware.
[20:32] <ESphynx> thanks MonkeyDust
[20:33] <flips> I assume ubuntu (12.04LTS Desktop) has the option of enabling a guest account. Is it possible easy to limit (set allowed apps) and will it wipe/forget everything upon logout?
