[16:54] <theadmin> akis: It's not officially supported by Canonical, but other than that it should work fine.
[16:56] <theadmin> akis: Don't worry, it's easy to reset Unity settings: unity --reset
[16:56] <akis> i saw that is not officially supported. i am wondering if it could harm my system.
[16:57] <theadmin> akis: Nothing can really harm the system as long as it doesn't have root access. Also, nothing in the repos ever will harm the system. Canonical checks all the official packages for insecurities, for sure
[16:58] <akis> ok. does it have option to move the launch bar?
[17:01] <theadmin> akis: I *think* it does.
[17:01] <DX099> hello, can someone give me a hint on why my bios would only boot Live USB created under Windows ? sometimes, the sticks created by the same program will not boot with the Linux version (UnetBootin)... I never managed to get a Live USB generated a linux software to work with my computer, when it always does with Windows...
[17:01] <theadmin> akis: Sorry, I'm a KDE person so I don't remember that stuff too well
[17:01] <akis> theadmin: here i don't read that it has this option! http://maketecheasier.com/tweak-ubuntu-unity-desktop-with-myunity/2011/12/22
[17:02] <theadmin> DX099: That's because you're overdoing it ;) isohybrid something.iso ; sudo dd if=something.iso of=/dev/sdz (where sdz is your USB stick. Also note that it's sdz, not sdz1)
[17:02] <DX099> theadmin, never heard of that "isohybrid" thing but just the name sounds like a solution to me...
[17:03] <DX099> theadmin, i'm downloading 12.10 daily right now, i'll test it right away
[17:03] <theadmin> DX099: The "isohybrid" part is actually unnecessary with most modern distributions, they provide hybrid ISOs already.
[17:03] <theadmin> DX099: So you won't need it with Ubuntu 12.04 and up
[17:03] <theadmin> DX099: So just the dd bit
[17:04] <DX099> ok
[17:05] <theadmin> DX099: It doesn't hurt anything if you do the isohybrid, though, but just saying
[17:05] <DX099> theadmin, in case the regular dd thing won't work, I'll try it
[17:05] <theadmin> DX099: It works with 12.04, I tested it, um, a week ago.
[17:06] <akis> theadmin: actually kde and xcfe are more customizable. but i am bored of kde after 5 years with it. so i am trying gnome/unity and xcfe too.
[17:06] <theadmin> DX099: Dunno about 12.10, but if any logic works then it should
[17:06] <DX099> theadmin, ok
[17:07] <nhck> Hi. I have the following problem: 10.04LTS won't mount usb anymore, won't connect to the wlan and in gnome the shutdown/logoff button is in disabled state (greyish) - what to do?
[17:08] <theadmin> nhck: Did you remove PolicyKit by any chance?
[17:10] <uw> so, for the file browser i've switched to display the "location" instead of those little buttons for each directory level.  However, there is no "up" button now.   is there a way to get ".." to appear on the file browser?
[17:10] <uw> so i can move up the directories?
[17:10] <maveze>  hi, when is the new GStreamerSDK will be uploaded to Ubuntu repositories?
[17:10] <nhck> theadmin: not that I know of, but there was an update 2 days ago
[17:11] <theadmin> maveze: Ubuntu versioning mostly does not allow the "new" software in various releases, versions are "frozen" apart from select applications and important security fixes
[17:11] <ferronica> how to change mouse pointer speed in ubuntu 12.04 64bit using Xorg
[17:12] <theadmin> ferronica: I think there used to be a slider in the mouse settings
[17:13] <ferronica> theadmin: i know but not good enough to change pointer speed according to my use
[17:13] <ferronica> theadmin: Its too Fast to move and control pointer not feeling like usable
[17:14] <nhck> theadmin: I did 'apt-cache show policykit-1-gnome' ... but I cannot figure out if it is really installed?
[17:15] <ferronica> theadmin: can you assist me how to setup
[17:15] <theadmin> nhck: An easier way to figure that out is "dpkg -l policykit-1-gnome" -- if it returns the packagename, it is installed. If not, it's not.
[17:16] <michealPW> Yay
[17:16] <ferronica> How to change mouse pointer speed in ubuntu 12.04 64bit?
[17:16] <michealPW> Seems to be all working fine with KDE 4.9:)
[17:16] <theadmin> !patience | ferronica
[17:17] <nhck> theadmin: So it seems it is installed. It says 'ii policykit-1-gone 0.96-2ubuntu2...'
[17:17] <theadmin> ...gone?
[17:17] <theadmin> I hope you mean gnome
[17:17] <theadmin> "gone" doesn't sound good in any way

[17:18] <bjrohan> I am having some mixed Java issues and could use help solving them. On one particular site it says no Java detected, YET, I can use the part of the site that requires Java. The issues comes when I have to use the product of said site on another site, and it doesn't work
[17:18] <bjrohan> as it says I have no Java
[17:18] <nhck> of course gnome.. this little beast doesn't have an internet connection anymore.. so manually copying it.
[17:19] <theadmin> nhck: Right, sorry. Anyway... Hm... What else could it be? Do the checks for ConsoleKit and DBus as well
[17:22] <maveze> theadmin, from what i understand, the gstreamerSDK is going to be the only possible way to develop an application using gstreamer libs.
[17:22] <theadmin> maveze: Well. If you totally *need* an updated version, try looking for a PPA. That's all I can say.
[17:24] <nhck> theadmin: dbus had iU .. so it seems the machine might have been shutdown during an update? i am running dpkg --configure --pending and we'll see
[17:24] <theadmin> nhck: Hm, yikes, that's not good... Yes, do that. That does seem like the issue >.<
[17:25] <bwlang> do-release-upgrade says "435 new packages are going to be installed. " uh… NO. I do not want 400 more packages  - looking at the details they all seem to be X related (and this is a headless server).   Thank you. If it wasn't for guys like you ubuntu would be only half the fun.
[17:29] <genii-around> bwlang: Does: apt-config dump| grep APT::Install       show that Recommends or Suggests is something other than zero?

[17:34] <solo|work> theadmin: I'm not able to install through apt, so I figured I'd give dpkg a try.

[17:37] <EricBlade> good morning.  anyone know of a quick way to make a launcher that will open a terminal window with 4 tabs in it, titles set to specific things, and all in different working directories? :D
[17:37] <D[4]ni> apt-get upgrade stalls because the download of one package completely stops at 64,5 kB

[17:42] <ikonia> kona_: that is an incorrect channel

[17:42] <buzzkill> EricBlade:  write a script. man gnome-terminal; it has everything you need.
[17:42] <b__> EricBlade, gnome-terminal --tab -e "tail -f somefile" --tab -e "some_other_command"
[17:42] <uw> is there a way to get ".." to display in the the file browser?
[17:43] <EricBlade> buzzkill and b__ thanks
[17:43] <ikonia> uw: that is the directory one level up
[17:43] <uw> correct
[17:43] <kona_> how do you install themes for ubuntu 12.04?
[17:43] <uw> the browser doesnt have the functionality by default
[17:44] <ikonia> uw: so you can't see the permissions for the higher directory while you are in the child
[17:44] <JTBens> Hey, can anyone help me out on a shared folder problem in Ubuntu Server?
[17:44] <ferronica> How to change mouse pointer speed in ubuntu 12.04 64bit?
[17:44] <uw> i just want a way to navigate up the directory chain
[17:44] <bwlang> genii-around: after adding Install-Recommends "false"; to my config i see only 310 new packages… that's a big improvement, but certainly not all the way there.  I still see a much of desktop oriented stuff (e.g. libkmediaplayer4, kdelibs-bin)  Any suggestions for how to track down what is depending on those. I'm hoping that there is one "gateway" package that i can remove ...
[17:45] <JoeyJoeJo> When I run certain commands ("xend" for example) I get this error "Illegal instruction (core dumped)". How can I fix that? I'm on Ubuntu Server 12.04.1 64 bit
[17:45] <ikonia> uw: you use the up arrow
[17:45] <wilee-nilee> ferronica, mouse and touchpad app.
[17:45] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: you'd have to analize the core dump, which is not an easy task
[17:45] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: is it just one command or many commands ?
[17:45] <JTBens> I am trying to set up a shared folder on Ubuntu Server that I can access from my machine running Windows and use that folder for back ups.. Any help?
[17:46] <ferronica> wilee-nilee: i want to slow down pointer speed
[17:46] <uw> ikonia, up arrow?
[17:46] <uw> it looks like theyve taken it out
[17:46] <ikonia> uw: in nautilus
[17:46] <ferronica> wilee-nilee: Its too Fast to move and control
[17:46] <ikonia> uw: can you take a screen shot of what you are seeing
[17:46] <ikonia> (please)
[17:46] <bwlang> I can see at packages.ubuntu.com what each package depends on… but not the inverse (which packages depend on the queried package).  Is there some other tool to help me?
[17:46] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: The weird thing is that if I mistype a command, ubuntu is supposed to say "I don't know that command, did you mean this other command?", but I get that core dumped message instead
[17:46] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: that's not what I asked
[17:46] <ferronica> wilee-nilee: i did from ubuntu mouse and Touchpad not worth
[17:46] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: So I guess to answer your question, it's multiple commands
[17:46] <wilee-nilee> ferronica, Right do it with that app, if you have tried there and it is not slow enough say so.
[17:47] <bwlang> (note - i know how to do this on installed packages, but not for packages that don't have installed)
[17:47] <climbzilla> any ideas how I can fix my wireless connectivity issue?  I get intermittent blackouts
[17:47] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: no, that's not what I asked
[17:47] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: is it specific commands or random,
[17:47] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: It's not random. Commands either always work or always say core dumped
[17:47] <ferronica> wilee-nilee: yes i tried still not precise and too much fast to move
[17:47] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: ok, can you give me an idea of some of the commands that you know don't work
[17:47] <bwlang> climbzilla: wireless can be flakey in the face of interference… You could try a different channel.
[17:48] <ferronica> wilee-nilee: I need to set mouse resolution i think can help me out in this
[17:48] <genii-around> bwlang: No immediate idea. But I've found that if you have some graphics conversion stuff installed on a cli box like ffmpeg or libavpostproc it tends to want to pull in X related stuff
[17:48] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: So far the only commands that I know do it are "xm" and "xend", both part of Xen
[17:48] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: ok, so that would suggest "xen" is the problem
[17:48] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: did you get xen from the ubuntu repos ?
[17:48] <buzzkill> JoeyJoeJo:  sounds more like a shared object file / dependant library is corrupt or behaving poorly. you can use gdb --core=<name of core dump file> and look through it to find the potential culprit
[17:48] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: yes
[17:49] <wilee-nilee> ferronica, My mouse has a button for changing the dpi does yours
[17:49] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: you're using ubuntu 12.04 ?
[17:49] <JTBens> Anyone have any suggestions for shared folder issue?
[17:49] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: 12.04.1
[17:49] <ferronica> wilee-nilee:  not in mouse im using very simple HP mouse
[17:49] <uw> here is what i see
[17:49] <uw> http://imgur.com/XegUG
[17:49] <ferronica> wilee-nilee:  You can say standard Optical mouse
[17:49] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: , ok so I'd suggest logging a bug against xen, include the core dump if possible in the bug report
[17:49] <genii-around> bwlang: Could you pastebin perhaps result of dpkg --get-selections  ?
[17:49] <wilee-nilee> ferronica, Thats about all I know. ;(
[17:49] <JoeyJoeJo> buzzkill: Where are core dump files usually saved?
[17:50] <uw> i dont know how to go up, unless i delete the last "/whatever"
[17:50] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: current working directory
[17:50] <ferronica> wilee-nilee:  Ok no problem :(
[17:50] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: Ok, thanks
[17:50] <soulspire> Can any one help I have a big problem with 11.10 right now.. fresh install and it won't allow me to enter ppa's and the sound isn't working
[17:50] <ikonia> uw: so the back error should take you back  or "up" a level
[17:50] <DX099> hello, backing up my home directory, and /etc/ as well, what kind of tar command do I need ?
[17:50] <ferronica> ikonia: Can you help me out!
[17:50] <b__> JTBens, going through smb.conf and desperately trying to find what to fix with a lot of google-fu ?
[17:50] <ikonia> ferronica: not at the moment, I'm busy
[17:50] <buzzkill> JoeyJoeJo:  from whence you launched the program/application. Usually the current working directory, but if you have a script that forces you to a chrooted place, or other working directory, they will typically reside there.
[17:51] <ferronica> ikonia: Oh Ok :(
[17:51] <Scunizi> uw: in that view the back (left arrow) will go up one directory.. you might want to install and try dolphin, kde's default file manager.. although the "up" arrow isn't viewable it's trivial to make it viewable.
[17:51] <JoeyJoeJo> buzzkill: I must have a script, because there isn't anything in the current directory after a core dump
[17:51] <ikonia> uw: I'd suggest not installing dolphin
[17:51] <JTBens> I tried a lot of Googling lol.. I'm not sure if I am having network issues or configuration issues.. I wasn wondering if anyone has done it and can give me a guide line to follow
[17:51] <ferronica> Anyone who can help me in setting mouse DPI in ubuntu 12.04 64bit?
[17:52] <uw> ikonia, when i first open the file browswer, the "back arrow" will be grayed out and cant be used
[17:52] <ikonia> uw: it will pull in all the KDE dependencies which is quite a lot for a file browser
[17:52] <buzzkill> DX099:  why do you need tar? What are  you trying to do exactly? backup to another location or just into a tar file directly?
[17:52] <uw> plus back isnt always up anyway
[17:52] <ikonia> uw: there must be a setting for "show hidden files" or something which will show . and ..
[17:52] <Scunizi> uw: dolphin will have right/left and you can make up visible.
[17:52] <uw> Thanks for the offer, but yea, ive used kde years ago and learned my lesson
[17:52] <ikonia> uw: I'd be very dissapointed if that was not the case, there certainly is on my non-ubuntu nautilus browser
[17:52] <wilee-nilee> ferronica, With a quick look at the web it looks like checking there with dpi and the actual mouse model and ubuntu nmay help
[17:52] <wilee-nilee> may*
[17:53] <DX099> buzzkill, I'm trying to backup my system before upgrading. I want to save /home/myhome/  to some external support , and also want to save /etc/ because of the confs I got there
[17:53] <uw> ikonia, i have "show hidden files" selected
[17:53] <uw> it is showing them
[17:53] <uw> but not the ..
[17:53] <ferronica> wilee-nilee:  tried nothing helped
[17:53] <uw> or .
[17:53] <Scunizi> uw: not suggesting a switch to kde.. just the file manager.. dolphin is different from what was used in the past.
[17:53] <wilee-nilee> ferronica, Ah, bummer.
[17:53] <buzzkill> DX099:  is the backup location reachable via rsync?  It may be a faster and safer way.
[17:54] <DX099> buzzkill, so it would be backup with tar & 7z to another location, it's an external hdd
[17:54] <ikonia> uw: yeah, I've just tried that in mine, I agree
[17:54] <JTBens> Has anyone set up a shared folder in Ubuntu Server and accessed it on a different machine running windows?
[17:54] <buzzkill> DX099:  well, if it is mounted in /media/backup... I would mkdir /media/backup/20121017
[17:54] <ferronica> wilee-nilee:  ??
[17:54] <DX099> buzzkill, that's done
[17:55] <uw> Scunizi, ok I will think about it.  but all I really want is to go up a level by clicking a button like previous releases, not a whole new file browser
[17:55] <uw> that up arrow has been around since 6.06 or before, i guess it's gone now?
[17:55] <ikonia> uw: go->open parent, a ver ugly solution
[17:55] <Scunizi> uw: sometimes while skinning a cat you need a new cat
[17:55] <buzzkill> DX099:  then.. for name in etc /home/myhome do; rsync -rav --progress /${name} /media/backup/20121017/; done
[17:56] <ikonia> Scunizi: installing all of KDE's deps for a browser, overkill
[17:56] <ikonia> there are plenty of other gnome/gtk ones
[17:56] <buzzkill> DX099:  tar will work fine too, especially if you need the compression.
[17:56] <ikonia> installing QT, KDE and all that for dolphin is not a good plan
[17:56] <Scunizi> ikonia: ok.. make a suggestion to him.. I live on kde
[17:56] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia buzzkill: So the 'gdb' command also returns a core dump
[17:56] <ikonia> Scunizi: I am making suggestions
[17:56] <bwlang> genii-around: I could post,  but in my digging i found kdirstat installed… i'm trying to remove that to see if i get an improvement
[17:56] <buzzkill> DX099:  tar czvpf /media/backup/20121017/mybackup.tgz /etc /home/myhome
[17:56] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: you shouldn't try to analyise it unless you know what you are doing
[17:56] <Scunizi> ikonia: sorry.. missed them.. I'll back away.
[17:57] <k1l_> uw: you still can go upwards
[17:57] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: it's interesting that it also core dumps
[17:57] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: Yeah, so it must not be a Xen thing
[17:57] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: that's not true
[17:57] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: have you ran hardware diags ?
[17:57] <ikonia> especially around memory ?
[17:57] <buzzkill> JoeyJoeJo:  yea... I am thinking you have a memory issue
[17:57] <k1l_> uw: look here: http://mrfrosti.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/gnome-file-browser-card.jpg there are the dcim and usbhdd folders listed that are "upwards"
[17:57] <uw> k1l_, yup, by deleting the last "/ahtever"
[17:58] <ikonia> uw: go to the "go" menu and then "parent directory"
[17:58] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia buzzkill: No I haven't tested the memory. This is a brand new server so I hope the memory isn't bad
[17:58] <DX099> buzzkill, thanks, I never tried rsync before but I need compression, that's why I wanted tar
[17:58] <k1l_> uw: i just dont know what the look is called like
[17:58] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: brandnew does not mean it's "good"
[17:58] <k1l_> (right under the "up file" in my picture)
[17:58] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: this is going to hurt but I'd run memcheck for a good 8 - 12 - 14 hours
[17:58] <buzzkill> JoeyJoeJo:  reboot and run memtest
[17:59] <ikonia> have confidence it's not the problem
[17:59] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: get a good many full memory passes through it
[17:59] <uw> ikonia, yup that works.  how can i get that in one button on the front?  not in a sub menu?
[17:59]  * buzzkill thinks that ikonia and I are on the same wavelength
[17:59] <JoeyJoeJo> iknonia buzzkll: I think I'll try reinstalling the OS first and if I get the same error I'll do the long ass memcheck
[17:59] <uw> i use that "up" feature pretty commonly
[17:59] <uw> like the rst of the world
[17:59] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: it's painful but until you "prove it's good" people will just keep asking you
[17:59] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: I'm wondering if I fucked something up in the kernel or shared libraries when I was installing Xen
[17:59] <buzzkill> JoeyJoeJo: depending on your install, that may be faster and only prove that the install may still not be the issue.
[18:00] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: that language is unacceptable
[18:00] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: and uncalled for
[18:00] <IdleOne> JoeyJoeJo: Please no cursing
[18:00] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: the package manager does all the work for you - so how would you have broken something ?
[18:00] <buzzkill> oversubscription?
[18:00] <uw> k1l_, do you how to change the looks?
[18:00] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: I asked you if this was xen provided by ubuntu, you said "yes" so in theory the package manager should do it all for you
[18:00] <invisibleheero> Hey guys, do you have any idea which file I can edit to add my custom iptables rules to UFW? I've tried /etc/ufw/user.rules and /usr/share/ufw/user.rules but when I reload the  firewall they don't get added.
[18:00] <uw> i was looking how to do that too and couldnt find it
[18:00] <uw> it usta be called profiles under appearance
[18:00] <uw> but i dont konw what they did with tit
[18:01] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: in that respect there is nothing for you to personally break
[18:01] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: you installed it using the package manager, correct ?
[18:01] <k1l_> uw: i dont know, i think its smth you made manually. because you dont seem to have global menue too
[18:02] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia: Yes, I installed xen via apt-get
[18:02] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: so if you are using the official ubuntu repo, there is nothijng for you to break
[18:02] <uw> k1l_, i am running the "gnome_session_fallback" tasksel
[18:02] <ikonia> JoeyJoeJo: you're going to have to run memtest to verify the ram (sorry) as until you do, people will just want you to verify your ram
[18:02] <uw> could that be the problem?

[18:05] <buzzkill> Praxi:  ls -l | wc -l
[18:05] <BoozeWooz> Could not grab your mouse.
[18:05] <BoozeWooz> A malicious client may be eavesdropping on your session or you may have just clicked a menu or some application just decided to get focus.

[18:06] <noiro> anyone know how to adjust gnome settings?
[18:06] <k1l_> uw: well, that is not what the gnome devs seem to find a good idea :)
[18:06] <BoozeWooz> FROM NO NEED
[18:06] <uw> yea i guess this is a gnome problem
[18:06] <wilee-nilee> !details > noiro
[18:06] <uw> time to rage on #gnome
[18:07] <noiro> In gnome, moving my mouse to the top left of the screen activates the home menu, and that's annoying when just hitting the 'back' button on my browser. Any way to change corners?
[18:08] <talsamon> invisibleheero,  what do you think is the differnce between user.rules and user6.rules ?
[18:09] <ferronica> Anyone who can help me in setting mouse DPI in ubuntu 12.04 64bit?
[18:10] <DX099> noiro, #gnome (install gnome-tweak-tool)
[18:10] <genii-around> Hm
[18:11] <DX099> noiro, (and check extensions.gnome.org -- yes, such settings are considered "extensions" by gnome devs)
[18:14] <vp18> 12.10 so far so good

[18:25] <D4rkH4nd> Apport has detected a possible GPU hang.  Did your system recently lock up and/or require a hard reboot?
[18:25] <ferronica> buzzkill: HP Standard optical mouse
[18:26] <ozz1> My question is if some1 can help me : i have 10 pcs pentium 4 all having linux and i want to connect all together with ethernet and i want that all together will works like 1 workstation what i need ?
[18:26] <ferronica> buzzkill: just want to correct pointer movement too fast to control and moving around display not so precise :(
[18:26] <buzzkill> ozz1:  a beowolf cluster
[18:27] <ozz1> buzzkill thx let me see the doc
[18:27] <ferronica> buzzkill: Do you know anything from where i can change my mouse DPI settings
[18:27] <buzzkill> ferronica:  off the top of my head, no... but I am googling
[18:27] <ferronica> buzzkill: Hmmm Thanks :(
[18:28] <buzzkill> ferronica:  have you seen http://askubuntu.com/questions/135122/reduce-the-mouse-sensitivity
[18:28] <D4rkH4nd> Every time i run this .sh this happends. But it never did B4.
[18:28] <ferronica> buzzkill: yes
[18:29] <ferronica> but where is xorg file for my mouse
[18:29] <L3top> what is the .sh D4rkH4nd? What is the output of lspci -nn | grep VGA
[18:29] <buzzkill> ferronica:  /etc/X11/xorg.conf *ALWAYS MAKE A COPY FIRST* you have been warned.
[18:29] <ferronica> buzzkill: there is no settings in xorg related to my mouse
[18:30] <buzzkill> ferronica:  right... you have to add the 'Option Sensitivity' from what I read
[18:30] <ferronica> buzzkill: wait le me open that file again wait
[18:31] <buzzkill> ferronica:  it takes you to http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/how-to-set-mouse-sensitivity-in-xorg-conf-not-window-manager-425552/
[18:31] <_XMENDES> guys.. how i save my initialyze settings??
[18:31] <KBentley57> hey guys, has anyone installed the amd 12.9 beta driver with a kernel > 3.5?
[18:31] <_XMENDES> backup of my x initialize settings
[18:32] <ozz1> buzzkill thx man beowulf cluster is what i need, meybe some more advice something alse ? have you done before ?
[18:32] <buzzkill> _XMENDES:  the X config is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf a copy of that will at least get you back to your current settings.
[18:32] <_XMENDES> only this?
[18:33] <buzzkill> ozz1:  nope. I would look up anything on google that uses the terminology 'cluster' and 'linux'
[18:33] <buzzkill> _XMENDES:  that is how the hardware is mapped to the video driver.
[18:33] <gridwest> what channel should I go to ask general programming, and router related questions?
[18:33] <_XMENDES> now.. i wanna save my layout of desktop menus
[18:34] <buzzkill> _XMENDES:  if you are looking to save the current desktop theme... that is different. That is handled through the control panel
[18:34] <_XMENDES> were?
[18:34] <skimpydoodle> hello, are the ubuntu precise repos having issues today?
[18:34] <_XMENDES> im using cairo-dock with unity lateral painel
[18:34] <skimpydoodle> apt-get update Errs sometimes, new boxes have issues coming up
[18:34] <buzzkill> gridwest:  depends on the language you need/want to write in... and router question, not sure. you could always try here.
[18:34] <ElVinz> hi
[18:34] <_XMENDES> i wanna save this layout
[18:35] <wilee-nilee> skimpydoodle, Run a apt-get update and pastebin all the text.
[18:35] <ferronica> buzzkill: be right back restart system
[18:35] <nannes> _XMENDES: Are you kidding? Cairo-Dock + Unity panel?
[18:36] <MonkeyDust> sounds overkill to me
[18:36] <ElVinz> I have formatted an external drive under ubuntu, but it does not show in windows. The disk is in ntfs format, and I used the disk mangement utility. Is there something special to do to have it compatible with windows ?
[18:36] <nannes> oh, if you have so much RAM to waste .. why don't you give me some? ;)
[18:36] <skimpydoodle> wilee-niles, here it is: http://pastebin.com/C0e7pk2H
[18:36] <_XMENDES> i was using lateral unity panel, and i installed cairo dock
[18:36] <_XMENDES> and now both are working.. i want to save
[18:36] <wilee-nilee> ElVinz, Is the NTFS the first partition on the drive?
[18:37] <nannes> _XMENDES: Cairo dock is a wonderful dock. But I'm trying to let you know that using 2 different docks isn't really smart.  Cairo dock can handle also a lateral bar like unity's
[18:37] <ElVinz> wilee-nilee, yes, it is the only partition
[18:37] <skimpydoodle> wilee-nilee: we also get hash mismatch errors on launching new instances:  W: Failed to fetch bzip2:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise-security_main_source_Sources  Hash Sum mismatch
[18:37] <_XMENDES> then this lateral bar is from cairo-dock too?
[18:38] <nannes> _XMENDES: No, that is unity's.  But it's not smart to keep both
[18:38] <morph> hey guys i was wondering can i install ubuntu on an iMac with the bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth mouse?
[18:38] <morph> will it recognize it automatically or do i have to turn it on (i have no other mouse or ekyboard to enable it...)
[18:38] <_XMENDES> but i liked :)
[18:38] <_XMENDES> its more usual for me
[18:38] <nannes> morph: A few days ago I did it in a iBookG4 late 2004 :P
[18:38] <morph> with bluetooth?
[18:39] <nannes> _XMENDES: Well, but you're wasting electric energy (which you pay) and really much RAM
[18:39] <wilee-nilee> ElVinz, Should show, since you used windows to format it and you are trying to see it from windows I just have to wonder why you are not at ##windows asking this.
[18:39] <morph> my hang up is that i dont have a USB mouse or keyboard to and enable bluetooth
[18:39] <nannes> morph: nope. But I think it'll work too
[18:39] <nannes> _XMENDES: So I personally suggest to get rid of unity
[18:39] <morph> hmm guess i'll have to give it a shot
[18:39] <morph> thanks nannes
[18:39] <ElVinz> wilee-nilee, no no :) I formatted using Ubuntu
[18:40] <wilee-nilee> skimpydoodle, Not sure.
[18:40] <gridwest> I need to forward my local computer's port externally, is there anyway do this automatically?
[18:40] <blabla\> Hi. I've missused a xrandr command and now I can't access a terminal or the X server anymore. What can I do ?
[18:40] <nannes> morph: yw. Remember to download powerPC version, if your mac has it
[18:40] <wilee-nilee> ElVinz, Should show not sure what is wrong.
[18:40] <ElVinz> wilee-nilee, I used the disk utility in ubuntu, with NTFS and all default option
[18:40] <dontknow> anyone here build firefox with intel c++ compiler?
[18:41] <wilee-nilee> ElVinz, I would use gparted myself, this is not for a install is it?
[18:41] <ElVinz> wilee-nilee, it is just to have a drive to transfer data between linux and windows
[18:42] <wilee-nilee> ElVinz, run in ubuntu sudo fdisk -lu and pastebin the text
[18:42] <ElVinz> wilee-nilee, ok
[18:42] <ElVinz> I reboot
[18:42] <jp2Nick_> hey gents
[18:43] <jp2Nick_> trying to get gparted running in a fresh install of 12.04 LTS
[18:43] <jp2Nick_> I keep bumping against this:
[18:44] <skimpydoodle> how many times a day are the Ubuntu mirrors updated/synched?
[18:44] <skimpydoodle> is it possible that if you hit a mirror during an update, you get Hash mismatch?
[18:44] <fabiano> hello to everyone
[18:44] <fabiano> is IRC secure
[18:45] <fabiano> can I have a virus while using an Irc channel?
[18:45] <skimpydoodle> wonder if the 12.10 update that was released is causing the errors, since it's synching between mirror repos
[18:45] <fabiano> i dunno my pc updates
[18:45] <gridwest> Is it possible to write a piece of software that will forward an external port from my computer, then close said port when no longer needed.
[18:45] <bazhang> fabiano, ask in #freenode
[18:45] <niranjan> Hey folks, I have my machine setup to update network time automatically on ubntu 12.04. However noticing that my machine is loosing time - its behind almost by 4 minutes as compared to other machine. What can be the reason
[18:45] <fabiano> ok thanks
[18:46] <Benxyzzy> Am I right in thinking I can install GNOME Activity Journal to view and manage the stuff Zeitgeist has logged about me to date?
[18:50] <jp2_ubuntu> trying to run gparted
[18:50] <jp2_ubuntu> I keep getting
[18:50] <gridwest> Is it possible to automatically forward an external port from my computer, then automatically close said port when no longer needed?
[18:51] <dr_willis> gridwest:  i imagine you could set up automated ssh tunnles.. if that would do what you need. or are you morre into needing iptables type forwarding?
[18:51] <jp2_ubuntu> I keep getting the message

[18:52] <dr_willis> jp2_ubuntu:  you are on the gui desktop? how are you running it exactly?
[18:52] <jp2_ubuntu> tried many sudo / gksudo and still get this message
[18:52] <jp2_ubuntu> I tried from gui desktp, I get no error message
[18:53] <jp2_ubuntu> when I launch from ssh I get the error message
[18:53] <gridwest> dr willis i would really like to setup automated ssh tunnels,
[18:53] <dr_willis> go to the gui. open terminal, gksudo gparted
[18:53] <dontknow> Anyone here build profile guided optimized firefox with intel c++ compiler?
[18:53] <jp2_ubuntu> dumb question how do I open terminal in server gnome gui?
[18:54] <dr_willis> its in the menus/apps under 'terminal' i belive
[18:54] <jp2_ubuntu> k trying this
[18:54] <dr_willis> dash has a search feature.
[18:54]  * dr_willis wonders how he was doing gkssudo/sudo befor...
[18:55] <jp2_ubuntu> wish I could send dr_willis a million
[18:55]  * jp2_ubuntu wonders how I got this far
[18:55] <dr_willis> so do i...
[18:55] <dr_willis> ;)
[18:55] <elvinz> wilee-nilee, here is the pastebin http://pastebin.com/KYdJCAdy
[18:55] <morgan> no one in studio ubuntu chat so I'll come here, is there a way of resetting the jack settings, as I've messed something up and i'm not sure what.
[18:55] <jp2_ubuntu> thanks guy, will be back for next sudo emergency. Wondering why it will install on the desktop but not run with elevated privileges
[18:55] <dr_willis> first thing i always do. drag the terminal icon onto the launcher. ;)
[18:56] <jp2_ubuntu> I figured it was just disabled in server version
[18:56] <jp2_ubuntu> doh
[18:56] <dr_willis> server and desktop are mainly just a matter oof whats installed by default differances
[18:57] <wilee-nilee> elvinz, If /dev/sdc1 is the HD it says linux
[18:57] <uw> does ubuntu still have Appearance Preferences?
[18:57] <dr_willis> morgan:  look for any config files like .jack* or directories perhaps. and move/rename/delete them
[18:57] <morgan> good idea
[18:58] <elvinz> wilee-nilee, yes I know... but the partition is ntfs, it appears as NTFS in gparted too... Is it a problem with the mbr ?
[18:58] <matt_> can i update ubuntu 12.10 fro beta to full tomorrow when its released?
[18:58] <Endorgh> Hi everyone
[18:58] <bazhang> Guest94594, yes
[18:58] <DJones> !final | Guest94594
[18:58] <tizr> I want to remove the jdk, but when I do 'sudo apt-get remove openjdk-6-jre' it tells me 'The following extra packages will be installed: <a list of other java stuff I don't want>'.  How do I just nuke it?  I don't want to replace it with something else
[18:59] <wilee-nilee> elvinz, take a screenshot of gparted looking at the HD and imagebin it
[18:59] <Guest94594> bazhang, so all i have to do is do the update manager?
[19:00] <bazhang> Guest94594, if there are updates, then accept them. you will be final when that is done
[19:00] <Guest94594> bazhang, ok thanks
[19:00] <gridwest> dr_willis: I am interested in setting up automated ssh tunnles that if possible, don't require the user to mess with their router settings
[19:01] <Endorgh> I've spent last 5 hours trying to discover Why my wired ethernet connection works only at 300kbps after a kernel upgrade. I've tried to disable ipv6 (no success) and a lot of internal configurations, but nothing has worked.
[19:01] <Benxyzzy> In answer to my original question, yes the Activity Journal does look at preexisting Zeitgeist logs. It's kind of scary to see a complete history of *everything* I ever did... thank God for whole-disk encryption
[19:02] <elvinz> wilee-nilee, in the disk utility, I have changed the type of partition from linux to NTFS. I guess this edited the mbr of the disk.
[19:02] <Endorgh> my ethernet adapter is: 82562V 10/100 Network Connection, and I'm trying to compile the original driver: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=9180&lang=eng
[19:02] <elvinz> wilee-nilee, I reboot in windows to test, thanks for the directions
[19:02] <Endorgh> but make install doesn't work. Any suggestions please.....
[19:04] <gridwest> is it possible to setup automated ssh tunneling?
 via bash script?
[19:04] <tizr> Does anyone have a solution to completely remove a package without apt sneakingly installing one of the alternatives in update-alternatives?
[19:04] <dr_willis> gridwest:  with all the scripting tools and stuff.. i would imagine so
[19:05] <jrib> tizr: why do you want to do that?
[19:05] <gridwest> via bash/python
[19:05] <gridwest> I always have to forward ports on my router
[19:05] <tizr> I'm trying to remove openjdk6-* and it tries to install openjdk-7 stuff when I'm only passing a purge opt...
[19:05] <gridwest> and I don't want my users to open their routers up to potential security hazards
[19:06] <jrib> tizr: can you pastebin?  My guess is you have something that depends on it.  You could try just using dpkg and then apt-get autoremove
[19:06] <tizr> jrib: do you know where I have to go to manually kill these unwanted associations that cause one mole to pop up when I'm smashing another?
[19:07] <tizr> does dpkg have a dependency opt?
[19:08] <tizr> err it doesn't seem to, do you know a way to list the packages that depend on something I pass as an option?
[19:08] <jrib> tizr: apt-cache show or apt-cache depends
[19:08] <tizr> jrib: that should do the trick, thank you!
[19:08] <jrib> tizr: erm.  Or apt-cache rdepends depending on what you mean
[19:09] <zezikaro> hi does anyone know how to deal with proxies easily on ubuntu

[19:09] <zezikaro> close terminal
[19:10] <dr_willis> theres the issue.....
[19:10] <zezikaro> do you have to add it to the last line of .bashrc ?
[19:10] <dr_willis> export it. run your browser from that terminal and see if it works...
[19:10] <L3top> anyone know if there is a way to install linux-image-XXX without it running osprobe or trying to install grub? This is a pxe boot. Lucid
[19:11] <dr_willis> .bashrc or .profile would be good

[19:11] <Chamunks> is there an advanced duplicate file removal / identifier tool?
[19:11] <jrib> Chamunks: fdupes
[19:11] <zezikaro> dr_willis apt-get update etc doesn't work either xD
[19:11] <Chamunks> Possibly one that does a checksum of files if a duplicate is detected.
[19:11] <zezikaro> or adding ppa
[19:12] <Chamunks> jrib, thanks I'll look into it.
[19:12] <zezikaro> and running shell scripts doesn't work either :(
[19:12] <end_guy> anyone having trouble with the update manager in 12.04LTS hanging while trying to download libllvm3.2?
[19:12] <zezikaro> I can fit the apt-get by modifying apt conf.d
[19:12] <zezikaro> but i have no idea how to make shell scripts know about the proxy
[19:13] <Chamunks> jrib, is there a graphical front end to fdupes?
[19:13] <iceroot> zezikaro: there is http_proxy variable or something like that
[19:13] <jrib> Chamunks: I don't know
[19:13] <zezikaro> iceroot i've exported that now; But it's ignored by most programs :(
[19:16] <gridwest>  I am connected to all you people right now... Why didn't I have to forward any port in my router config to do so?
[19:16] <tizr> ugh... I do `sudo apt-get purge --ignore-missing --no-download openjdk-6-jre` but still I get an error "Unable to correct missing packages".    Anyway, can you pastebin full output?
[19:17] <gridwest> Because we are connected to a middle server
[19:17] <tizr> I swear I don't - I was using it for ec2 tools that I'm not using anymore on my instance.  Is there no option to just ignore dependencies??? what a horrible horrible package system
[19:18] <Chamunks> jrib, how was your experience with fdupes
[19:19] <jrib> Chamunks: I used it a few years ago and it worked as expected
[19:19] <TheLordOfTime> gridwest, outbound data is probably not restricted, it usually isnt.  and "RELATED,ESTABLSIHED" are common "accept" rules i see in firewalls for outbound-related data
[19:20] <L3top> tizr: dpkg -i --ignore-depends: <depend> <depend> <depend>  <package>
[19:20] <Chamunks> jrib, How big was your data set?  Also roughly how long did it take?
[19:20] <gridwest> How can I see the text you just wrote me, it is incoming data?
[19:20] <jrib> Chamunks: I don't remember to be honest
[19:20] <Chamunks> I might concidder  running it on a smb share if possible.
[19:20] <tizr> http://pastebin.com/bbrn25Gv
[19:20] <tizr> L3top thank you
[19:21] <Chamunks> jrib, even a rough guess would be helpful.
[19:21] <jrib> Chamunks: all I remember is I walked away for lunch and came back, but I don't really know how big the data set was
[19:22] <Chamunks> jrib, any idea of the kinds of data?
[19:22] <Chamunks> ok fair enough no worries I'm sure it will do fine.  Thanks I'll just > the results into a .txt file somewhere for later auditing.
[19:23] <wroa>  When I download with wubi, it says it's unable to download the metalink. How do I fix it?
[19:24] <Jaith> i'm trying to set up an Ubuntu instance such that a) no mail is delivered locally and b) ALL mail is sent using Amazon SES -- can anyone help me with some postfix configuration?
[19:24] <jrib> Jaith: there's a #postfix where you may also wish to try
[19:24] <Jaith> jrib: THANKS
[19:25] <wilee-nilee> wroa, You get the installer from here? http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/windows-installer
[19:25] <schultza> is there a way to transfer with rsync and still show the % transfered for the whole or each file?
[19:25] <wroa> Yeah.
[19:26] <wilee-nilee> wroa, here is wubi guide as well, wubi is a tryout option just a heads up. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide
[19:26] <wroa> Alright, thanks. I'll check it out.
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> wroa, You can transfer that wubi install to a partition as well if you want to later, it is then a regular dualboot.
[19:28] <schultza> brb
[19:28] <end_guy> I'm having problem with the update manager in 12.04LTS. It hangs when downloading an update to libllvm3.2. I've tried changing my download mirror twice and it still hangs. Any suggestions?
[19:28] <clook> libllvm is not critical
[19:29] <clook> you could de-install, upgrade, install
[19:29] <Benxyzzy> OK, so far I've discovered recently-used.xbel and Zeitgeist as global, 'record everything you do' mechanisms in Ubuntu. Am I going to get any other surprises, or is that it privacy-wise?
[19:30] <Chat9478> Hi
[19:30] <tizr> L3top: FREE AT LAST! `dpkg -l | grep jre\\\|jdk` -> ∅ :)
[19:30] <mangozy> i fear so much to change my critical pc to ubuntu , its almost like it will break if i do ,  Anyway on my non critical pc i have ubuntu on , but it keeps flashing my screen every 20 minutes . What could be wrong there ? Maybe graphics drivers or something wrong with  ubuntu 12.04 ?
[19:30] <L3top> !yay
[19:30] <schultza> is there a way to force rsync to give me % transferred ?
[19:30] <clook> Benxyzzy: ubuntu is about fashion and gimmicks, not privacy
[19:31] <end_guy> How do I force the install when 'apt-get upgrade' holds some packages back?
[19:31] <L3top> schultza: --progress
[19:31] <jcrza> Hey dudes, small question, how can I make functionlock on by default?
[19:31] <schultza> thank you
[19:31] <bazhang> end_guy, dist-upgrade
[19:31] <jcrza> I never ever want to have to use it, why would I want my f5 key to open a media player instead of refresh? ._.
[19:32] <end_guy> bazhang: Command not found, is it apt-get upgrade -d
[19:32] <bazhang> !dist-upgrade | end_guy
[19:32] <jrib> jcrza: happen to be an apple machine?
[19:32] <jcrza> Nope, just an regular netbook
[19:32] <jcrza> a*
[19:32] <end_guy> :(
[19:32] <jcrza> And infuriatingly enough my function lock needs to be held down, it's not even like caps lock
[19:33] <end_guy> lulz, apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:34] <TheLordOfTime> jcrza, you mean the 'fn' key on a netbook?
[19:34] <jcrza> Yep
[19:34] <TheLordOfTime> jcrza, you can't, that's generally never lockable
[19:34] <TheLordOfTime> jcrza, 95% of the time its functionality is controlled by hardware
[19:34] <TheLordOfTime> not necessarily software
[19:34] <jcrza> o_O
[19:34] <n1> kde partition manager report's the lack of administrative privilages
[19:34] <jcrza> that makes no sense to me
[19:34] <n1> ...reports
[19:35] <L3top> scroll lock caps lock num lock are typically the only things that lock jcrza
[19:35] <jcrza> every function lock I've ever had locks except this one
[19:35] <dr_willis> jcrza:  logitech had a similer keybord ages ago  the f keys had to be accessed via 'fn-F#' or else they were used as multimedia keys
[19:35] <jcrza> And there's really no way to tell software to interpret one key as another by default?
[19:35] <jcrza> How would a help key be built in to my hardware? that makes no sense to me.
[19:36] <TimothyA> is there a way to limit users to only be able to use SFTP, and not use it as a shell?
[19:36] <dr_willis> the keybode the key is sending is different i belive.
[19:36] <jcrza> hrm.
[19:36] <L3top> jcrza: you can remap them. As for help, it is probably sending ctrl + f1
[19:36] <jcrza> what an annoying feature
[19:36] <jrib> jcrza: I'd be surprised if there isn't some key combo you hit that locks it and yeah, worst-case scenario you could just use xmodmap and remap the keys
[19:36] <jcrza> I'm really mad
[19:36] <jcrza> xmodmap, sounds like a plan
[19:37] <L3top> jcrza: xev is your friend.
[19:37] <jcrza> Now I just have to figure out how to do that :)
[19:37] <jrib> jcrza: what netbook?  so I know not to get one
[19:37] <michealPW> LOL ^
[19:37] <jcrza> some gateway netbook I found at best buy for like 170 bucks
[19:37] <jcrza> things actually great except for this.
[19:37] <jcrza> I stuck an intel SSD in there and it's lightning.
[19:38] <dr_willis> it may have some drivers under windows that let you toggle the 'feature' ;)
[19:38] <jcrza> I have nostalgia for gateway so I figured I"d try it :(
[19:39] <jrib> jcrza: might check bios too
[19:39]  * wilee-nilee hmm a emotional attachment to a inanimate object that does sound like "mad" ;)
[19:40] <jcrza> My first PC was a gateway :) fond memories of breaking it and fixing it, and playing quake 2
[19:40] <jcrza> And then quake 3 came out and I got a voodoo 3 and it was crazy.
[19:41] <jcrza> Poor old 3dfx
[19:41] <dr_willis> the days of the video cards taking more power then ttthe rest of the pc.. ;)
[19:44] <eka__> How to solve this error "Cannot find config.m4. Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module"

[19:55] <ipt> i install the geoip module of iptables, downloaded the file and when I give any command with -m geoip, it says iptables -A INPUT -m geoip --src-cc CN -j DROP #  iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.

[19:55] <ULO-Plio> I wouldn't know why :P I don't have a clue as to what the work environment is like or their compensation packages LOL
[19:57] <tpimtts> can anyone suggest me a decent decompiler on ubuntu?
[19:57] <gridwest> Is an ssh tunnel half-duplex encrypted or full-duplex?
[19:57] <gridwest> I have always assumed full
[20:02] <guntbert> gridwest: I cannot understand your question
[20:05] <gridwest> Is the encrpytion in an SSH tunnel bidirection (file transfer wise)?
[20:05] <gridwest> *bidirectional
[20:06] <OerHeks> Both ways, ofcourse
[20:06] <gridwest> ok I had always thought so, but just wanted to make sure
[20:07] <gridwest> now can two applications use the same external port at the same time simultaneously?
[20:07] <gridwest> I think the answer is no, but need a double check
[20:08] <OerHeks> "external port" do you mean the router port ? like port 80 to pc-X ?
[20:09] <gridwest> port 0- 65535
[20:09] <gridwest> yes
[20:09] <OerHeks> inbound, from the internet to your machine ? only one machine can
[20:10] <gridwest> what about outbound
[20:10] <guntbert> gridwest: do you realize that this channel is for ubuntu support? your questions are more generally networking related, it seems
[20:10] <gridwest> I am new to xchat
[20:10] <aman_> i have a toshiba notebook. i want to install ubuntu on it. but i cant solve acpi issue. pls help me.
[20:11] <OerHeks> gridwest, same answer, AFAIK
[20:11] <gridwest> what is AFAIK
[20:11] <OerHeks> gridwest, "as far as i know"
[20:13] <gridwest> I don't know what channel to join to be honest
[20:13] <sdollins> perhaps #networking?
[20:13] <gridwest> do they answer programming questions as well?
[20:14] <bazhang> gridwest, ##programming
[20:14] <gridwest> what if my question is related to both
[20:14] <aman_> hey
[20:14] <aman_> help mi
[20:14] <aman_> help me
[20:15] <aman_> problem is: toshiba, acpi, ubuntu
[20:15] <aman_> :D
[20:15] <Gary_inNYC> i'm having problems dragging songs into my ipod touch in rhythmbox.  I can see the ipod is mounted, and I can even remove songs, but trying to drag new songs into it doesn't do anything
[20:15] <OerHeks> aman_, give us more details about your acpi problem, please.
[20:15] <guntbert> !enter | aman_
[20:15] <D4rkH4nd> Every time i run any scripts it crashes ubuntu
[20:16] <aman_> ubuntu is freeze on my toshiba laptop. i boot linux with acpi=off kernel parameter and configure acpi with bios. but still its freeze
[20:17] <OerHeks> aman_, try acpi=vendor ?
[20:17] <aman_> OerHeks, okey
[20:17] <xangua> Gary_inNYC: what versión of iOS¿ precice only supports until iOS 5 i believe
[20:17] <ellorenz> Hi to all
[20:17] <Gary_inNYC> i'm using ios 4.2.1
[20:18] <xangua> Gary_inNYC: have you tried gtkpod¿
[20:18] <Gary_inNYC> it used to sync just fine, I don't know what changed
[20:20] <Gary_inNYC> I did notice that the ipod touch now mounts twice; once for the filesystem, and once for application folders
[20:20] <ellorenz> Somebody can help me to set up an hotspot with apn mode on ubuntu 12.04 with intel wifi?
[20:21] <Gary_inNYC> i'll try gtkpod for now, but ideally I want to have rhythmbox do the syncing again
[20:22] <D4rkH4nd>  I need some help, Every time i run any scripts it make Ubuntu start to crash.
[20:23] <guntbert> D4rkH4nd: what scripts?
[20:31] <actarus76> ciao

[20:35] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia buzzkill: I reinstalled Ubuntu from scratch and ran the gdb command (this previously resulted in "core dumped") and all was fine. So I installed Xen via apt-get and rebooted and now when I run gdb I get "core dumped" again
[20:36] <JoeyJoeJo> ikonia buzzkill: So I'm kinda leaning towards it being a software issue, though I'm about to start a memtest just to be sure
[20:44] <buzzkill> JoeyJoeJo:  it has to be something with either a kernel addition or memory (IMHO)
[20:46] <JoeyJoeJo> buzzkill: We'll know for sure tomorrow when the memtest is complete
[20:47] <systems> hello
[20:47] <systems> i am trying to put an atx switch on a serial header inorder for ubuntu to run a script once the switch is triggered. Is this even possible???
[20:49] <timothyja> Hi Guys, I'm trying to fill a bug anyone know what package the little wireless/networking menu in the top right corner of the ubuntu desktop fits under?
[20:50] <shadowflee> hey guys
[20:53] <timothyja> hi
[20:53] <shadowflee> hey
[20:53] <shadowflee> hows it going
[20:57] <_cronus__> systems, what is an atx switch?
[21:01] <Krakhed> for i in *.mp3; -- how can i make this command to scan not only the mp3s in that directory but sub directories also?
[21:02] <jrib> Krakhed: either use find or do "shopt -s globstar" and then you can use **
[21:02] <yeats> Krakhed: 'find . -name *.mp3 -print'?
[21:02] <climbzilla> hi there... still looking for an answer to my question.
[21:02] <climbzilla> My wifi has intermittent connectivity
[21:03] <climbzilla> full bars in the notification icon, but the browser regularly stops working
[21:03] <climbzilla> tried with chrome and with firefox
[21:03] <climbzilla> connection will stop working for a few minutes, then work again, then stop working for a few minutes...
[21:03] <shadowflee>  could be a isp problem
[21:03] <climbzilla> I have three other machines on here that all work
[21:04] <climbzilla> one is wired in, works great
[21:04] <Krakhed> this is my command -- for i in *.mp3; do vbrfix $i $i; done -- but only fixes the mp3 in that dir and not sub directory
[21:04] <climbzilla> two others are wireless, no issues.  on windows, mind you.
[21:04] <climbzilla> mine is the only linux/ubuntu machine on the network.
[21:04] <MonkeyDust> Krakhed  try the channel #bash
[21:05] <buzzkill> Krakhed:  you are only telling it to find the files in the current directory that are <zero or more characters>.mp3
[21:05] <trism> Krakhed: find . -name '*.mp3' -exec vbrfix {} {} \; perhaps?
[21:06] <Krakhed> trism: thank you that worked
[21:08] <yeats> climbzilla: I think you should look in /var/log/syslog for any relevant messages from around the time the connection drops
[21:09] <alexGla> hello guys, I need sql server on my Ubuntu machine for Android app, which one you would recommend?
[21:09] <ssfdre38> do you know why i cant use my pci wireless card anymore its a trendnet tew-443pi
[21:09] <gordonjcp> alexGla: What exactly are you trying to do?
[21:09] <buzzkill> alexGla:  what does the Android App require?
[21:10] <alexGla> gordonjcp, server for storing data and Android app manipulate this data
[21:10] <alexGla> meaning add/delete/upload
[21:11] <gordonjcp> alexGla: how does the android app communicate with the database?
[21:11] <buzzkill> alexGla:  the app should tell you which type of SQL database server you will need. SQL is supposed to be standardized, but the command set still differs between vendors.
[21:11] <alexGla> gordonjcp, through Internet
[21:12] <gordonjcp> alexGla: *how*?
[21:12] <alexGla> buzzkill, i am gonna create this app. there is no app yet
[21:12] <gordonjcp> alexGla: oh, you're starting from scratch?
[21:13] <alexGla> yes
[21:13] <siente> please tell me the best text editor without graphic environment?
[21:13] <dr_willis> siente:  vi or emacs
[21:13] <gordonjcp> siente: that's a whole can of worms
[21:13] <buzzkill> alexGla:  well, you will start a holy war by asking that question
[21:13] <MonkeyDust> siente  nano
[21:13] <climbzilla> yeats... should I look for something in particular?  brought up the syslog and it's a hot mess lol
[21:13] <buzzkill> you and siente are trying to double down on that right now
[21:13] <gordonjcp> alexGla: read up on REST
[21:14] <alexGla> buzzkill, ok, i just thought that there might be some constraints for android. i might go with mysql
[21:14] <alexGla> gordonjcp, sorry, what is REST?
[21:14] <genii-around> sien.te: For beginners, usually nano is good to start with. There is a long tradition of vi versus emacs however
[21:14] <genii-around> siente: ^
[21:14] <gordonjcp> alexGla: that's why I told you to read up on it ;-)
[21:15] <siente> thank you so much
[21:15] <siente> guys
[21:15] <yeats> climbzilla: maybe 'grep wlan0 /var/log/syslog'?
[21:15] <gordonjcp> alexGla: this is probably offtopic anyway
[21:15] <gordonjcp> alexGla: the easiest way to do this is to use some sort of web interface to a database
[21:15] <yeats> climbzilla: searching for the name of your network interface (which may not be 'wlan0') would be a start
[21:15] <gordonjcp> alexGla: lots of people use mysql, and indeed if you install the LAMP stack you'll get Apache, PHP and MySQl
[21:15] <Absolute0> %users   localhost=NOPASSWD: /sbin/poweroff <-- I still need to enter in the password
[21:15]  * buzzkill prefers vi. It is available on just about every *nix system and does not require control characters in order to manipulate files. Some terminal emulators, or if you work in a Virtualized environment may have issues with Control characters.
[21:15] <gordonjcp> alexGla: I don't like PHP or MySQL very much though
[21:16] <alexGla> gordonjcp, ok, i see
[21:16] <ssfdre38> does anybody know if there is a driver for the TRENDnet TEW-443PI wireless pci card cause from 11.10 to 12.04.01 LTS it broke

[21:22] <Jay27> Hello everyone
[21:22] <john_doe_jr> Does ubuntu have anything like susestudio.com?
[21:23] <seednode> You mean, a way to customize your ISO before installing?
[21:23] <john_doe_jr> yes
[21:23] <seednode> Not that I'm aware of. I can check, though.
[21:23] <seednode> Nothing official, though.
[21:23] <UbuntuRookie> Hey guys, I recently disabled automount since it messed with my kindle device and calibre but now it doesnt automount my external usb hdd. I have the "/dev/" but it mentions when trying to mount that I have to edit my fstab since there is no mention of it. Is that true? And what exactly do I have to input in fstab? :)
[21:23] <EgyParadox> !isitout
[21:26] <shadowflee> good day
[21:26] <john_doe_jr> seednode: suse studio is so incredibly awesome!
[21:26] <ItsAllGoneWierd> actionParsnip, hi, my brother downloaded som nvidia drivers that wrecked his laptop.. could he use the same script i got from u yesterday to fix his system?
[21:26] <seednode> john_doe_jr: I know, I've used it before.
[21:27] <seednode> john_doe_jr: However, I like to customize everything about my distro, so it's kinda redundant for me.
[21:28] <actionParsnip> ItsAllGoneWierd: that only removes package knowledge then redownloads them, doesn't fix video issues. You can boot to recovery root console and uninstall all nvidia drivers (but not nvidia-common) and be ok
[21:29] <Daphko> Hello, where can i find people which can help me with my ubuntu server?
[21:29] <Daphko> i have questions about security
[21:29] <ItsAllGoneWierd> actionParsnip, ok, ill try that, i think he can get to the terminal even..
[21:30] <climbzilla> actionParsnip: does that mean I'm not using ipv6?
[21:30] <Karlo_> I updated to 12.04; on reboot I got "The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present".  As per a Web suggestion, I remounted / as readwrite, then tried "apt-get install -f" to deal with the broken packages.    I'm not very familiar with apt-get; what do I do now?
[21:30] <Ramtron> Hi, what's the command to update cinnamon?
[21:31] <ThinkT510> Ramtron: cinnamon isn't supported here
[21:31] <climbzilla> actionParsnip: here's the latest from my syslog.  Not sure what that last bit is all about... http://paste.ubuntu.com/1285911/
[21:31] <Karlo_> The description of "apt-get install" led me to believe that it would automatically resolve things that were not already installed, so I'm puzzled by the first set of 53 errors.
[21:31] <Ramtron> buuut I can't figure out how to update it by command
[21:32] <obtrusivemouse> ThinkT510, so how do you update a program?
[21:32] <buzzkill> Ramtron: https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev/+archive/cinnamon-stable
[21:33] <ThinkT510> obtrusivemouse: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade

[21:34] <crimsonmane> Hello. Round 2. Let's begin: My system already has mscorefonts, but I'm not sure if these fonts are usable inside things like LibreOffice. I have created a template with user-input fields. The fields are flagged "hide input: no" thus when converted to PDF, I can type into these fields. However on a Windows computer these fields come up like hidden password fields and it's because the font doesn't exist on those computers.
[21:34] <crimsonmane> When converting to PDF I did select "embed fonts"
[21:37] <i_need_a_GF> hey guy

[21:38] <ssfdre38> does anybody know if there is a driver for the TRENDnet TEW-443PI wireless pci card cause from 11.10 to 12.04.01 LTS it broke

[21:45] <salamie> hey  there - i was using the serverguide to setup samba - ldap on 12.04 and got stuck setting up smbldap-tools. i used the given example configurations because the configuration.pl ist missing - but during populate it shows "failed to add entry: modifications require authentication at /usr/sbin/smbldap-populate line 500." - any hints or ideas where to look/ask for help?
[21:54] <Karlo_> Trying this again.    Obviously, I can't correct them by installing new stuff, until I have a network.  Is it reasonable for me to correct the errors by removing stuff instead, and then letting it install the right stuff later on?
[21:55] <Guest95187> hey guys
[21:55] <Guest95187> anyone in here want to help me ?
[21:55] <seednode> With?
[21:55] <seednode> Don't ask to ask, just ask.

[21:57] <Guest95187> the only one in the website is 64bit
[21:57] <unrar> Hi
[21:57] <RobbyF> gordonjcp, thanks, I was hoping early.. maybe even today EST.
[21:57] <gordonjcp> Guest95187: is your hardware 64-bit capable?
[21:57] <Guest95187> its not 64bit capable. and i used the 32bit installer if unbuntu 12.04

[21:57] <OerHeks> Guest95187, use the additional driver tool from dash-menu
[21:58] <Guest95187> it wont detect any driver even my sound card
[21:58] <darkprincess> Anyone know how to disable SSE3 in libdevil?
[21:59] <darkprincess> 12.04

[21:59] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I need help installing something
[21:59] <Hishamoto_Masuki> But I will be right back
[22:00] <actionParsnip> rustler770: did you run:  sudo smbpasswd -a $USER      then make a samba password for the user
[22:00] <actionParsnip> rustler770: you can then autenticate as the user whom ran the command with the samba password you set
[22:00] <Braber01> question, is there a way to get a wireless driver from my machine to a virtual machine, my computer is to @#$%!ing new to support my wireless card.
[22:01] <Guest95187> so how can i install an ATI driver that ubuntu cant even detect?
[22:01] <Braber01> I've tried rsync andI got a code 12 Error.
[22:01] <gordonjcp> Braber01: What exactly are you trying to do?
[22:01] <rustler770> actionParsnip no, I'll try
[22:01] <actionParsnip> Braber01: the virtual OS will just see a wired connection via the host
[22:01] <actionParsnip> !ati | Guest95187
[22:02] <Braber01> actionParsnip: so I should see wlan0 if my host ifconfig has wlan0?
[22:02] <darkprincess> Does anyone know how to disable SSE3?
[22:02] <Braber01> or will it just see it as a wired connection?
[22:02] <actionParsnip> Braber01: no, it will use a virtualized wired network interface.
[22:02] <rustler770> wait...
[22:02] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: there may be a boot optio
[22:02] <actionParsnip> *option
[22:02] <darkprincess> How do I get the boot menu?
[22:03] <Mneumonic> Anyone know how long until I can expect more of the paid apps to be available in 12.10?  For Example the game Osmos.  I own it but it isn't compatible with 12.10
[22:03] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: hold SHIFT at boot, I'm not sure if the option is, or even if it exists
[22:03] <rustler770> I'll need to restart the server?
[22:03] <Mneumonic> It says "Purchased on 2012-09-19 but not available for your current Ubuntu version.
[22:03] <actionParsnip> Mneumonic: ask in #ubuntu+1
[22:03] <juniour_> hii
[22:03] <Mneumonic> alright, tried that but no one seems to be talking in that channel
[22:03] <actionParsnip> rustler770: no, the password is in the client
[22:03] <juniour_> gud morning to all aroung the glob
[22:04] <juniour_> :)
[22:04] <actionParsnip> Mneumonic: doesn't make it supported here
[22:04] <rustler770> actionParsnip didn't work
[22:05] <Braber01> actionparsnip: for some reason, the internet isn't working on my VM. >:(
[22:05] <Zybe> why do i get unable to locate package when i try to install some applications?
[22:06] <actionParsnip> Braber01: what are you using to virtualize?
[22:06] <Braber01> Virtual Box.
[22:06] <Braber01> The thing is networking worked last night and stuff.
[22:06] <actionParsnip> Braber01: did you try switching the network card in the system settings/ Did you try setting a bridged network?
[22:07] <OerHeks> Zybe what packages?
[22:07] <Guest95187> how to i install fglrx
[22:08] <actionParsnip> Guest95187: sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle fglrx
[22:09] <actionParsnip> rustler770: I'd ask in #samba
[22:09] <Braber01> actionParsnip: I can't find it. the truth is I'm using Backtrack, and the admins of Backtrack baned me because I asked about White Hat hacking, they think I want to get back at people who bullied me.
[22:09] <actionParsnip> Braber01: backtrack isn't supported here
[22:09] <Braber01> actionParsnip: I know, the admins of that channel are jerks.
[22:09] <Karlo_> Do I need to be on the network in order to use "apt-get check"?
[22:10] <rustler770> I'll find it
[22:10] <actionParsnip> Braber01: I'd take it up in #freenode
[22:10] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I'm back
[22:10] <gordonjcp> Braber01: backtrack sucks
[22:10] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Now I'm gonna need a bit of help
[22:10] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I'm trying to install Linux MultiMedia Studio.
[22:10] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Any help?

[22:11] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I'm going to make some drum beats to go with my guitar
[22:11] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: it's in the repos. you can install it with:  sudo apt-get install lmms
[22:11] <Hishamoto_Masuki> :O
[22:11] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Thanks, dude
[22:12] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Thanks, Action

[22:12] <Guest95187> i get this error when trying to execute this command "sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle fglrx"  No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already
[22:12] <Karlo_> I guess it's worth a try.  Uh, how do I bring up the network, from single-user mode?  It's been ages since I've had to play around at this level.
[22:12] <OerHeks> Zybe, it should be in the repo's.
[22:14] <Zybe> OerHeks: I'm typing sudo apt/get install wireshark and I get unable to locate package wireshark
[22:14] <OerHeks> Zybe, try apt-get
[22:14] <Zybe> not / should be -
[22:14] <Zybe> wrong keyboard layout i mean - not /
[22:14] <actionParsnip> Zybe: do you have the universe repo enabled?
[22:15] <Zybe> do not know, new to the linux scene
[22:15] <OerHeks> Zybe, what version do you us ? type: " cat /etc/issues/ "in terminal
[22:15] <darkprincess> Nope.
[22:15] <darkprincess> That didn't do it.
[22:16] <WeThePeople> where does restored trash go?
[22:16] <actionParsnip> Zybe: you can check in software centre, or you can uncomment the lines relating to the universe repo in /etc/apt/sources.list
[22:16] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Hey
[22:16] <Zybe> OerHeks: that did now give me anything, cat: /etc/issues/: No such file or directory
[22:16] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Back again.
[22:16] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I need to learn how to install a couple more softwares
[22:16] <Hishamoto_Masuki> How can I install:
[22:16] <OerHeks> Zybe that is not the command i gave you
[22:16] <Hishamoto_Masuki> IFSCL, (paradoxe-upsilon.fr is the address for link)
[22:17] <Hishamoto_Masuki> and TeamSpeak 3?
[22:17] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Any help here?
[22:17] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I'm a Linux newb lol ._.
[22:18] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: why the 'lol'?
[22:18] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I dunno.
[22:18] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I guess you're right, it's stupid, but can you help me?
[22:18] <darkprincess> Ok. So I need to disable libdevil SSE3 Interactions
[22:18] <darkprincess> Any ideas?
[22:18] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TeamSpeak
[22:18] <ElixirVitae> Hi #ubuntu.
[22:19] <ElixirVitae> Something I always wondered
[22:19] <gordonjcp> darkprincess: what makes you think you need to do that?
[22:19] <darkprincess> I'm using early P4
[22:19] <ElixirVitae> Why are there different versions of the same program for different versions of ubuntu?
[22:19] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Now about the IFSCL? paradoxe-upsilon.fr is where I get the jar
[22:19] <darkprincess> Seems like its messing up FTL.
[22:19] <Hishamoto_Masuki> So how do I install it?
[22:19] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Not jar, AIR file, rather
[22:19] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: adobe air doesn't run in Linux
[22:20] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: it did, then it was dropper by adobe
[22:20] <actionParsnip> *dropped
[22:20] <darkprincess> Any ideas gordonjcp ?
[22:20] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I have the old version
[22:20] <Hishamoto_Masuki> So I will never install IFSCL? :/
[22:20] <Zybe> OerHeks: 22:15 < OerHeks> Zybe, what version do you us ? type: " cat /etc/issues/ " in terminal <-- I type cat /etc/issues/ in terminal... and get cat: /etc/issues/: No such file or directory
[22:21] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: what is IFSCL?
[22:21] <Hishamoto_Masuki> It is a simulator...
[22:21] <Pinkamena_D> hello, i was here before i was trying to get grub to default back to the ubuntu install. someone gave me two quick commands to do it
[22:21] <Hishamoto_Masuki> For a supercomputer off of my favourite anime
[22:21] <Pinkamena_D> but i forgot them..
[22:22] <OerHeks> Zybe my bad :(  > cat /etc/issue/
[22:22] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: if it uses adobe air then no, you may find an old version of adobe air online, but I doubt it will work
[22:22] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Ehh.
[22:22] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Is there any other program that supports AIR files?
[22:23] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: no, they are proprietary to adobe
[22:23] <Zybe> OerHeks: ubuntu 12.04.1
[22:24] <Fated> quit
[22:24] <darkprincess> So no one knows how to disable libdevil's SSE3 interactions?
[22:24] <darkprincess> https://getsatisfaction.com/ftlgame/topics/linux_illegal_instruction_crash_solved
[22:24] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Last question
[22:24] <darkprincess> It seems like I need to get the source and compile it without it, but I have no idea how to do that.
[22:24] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: I found this: http://www.sizlopedia.com/2008/04/06/how-to-install-adobe-air-on-ubuntu/
[22:24] <Hishamoto_Masuki> How do I install .rpm files?
[22:24] <Hishamoto_Masuki> I need to install Hamachi
[22:24] <Hishamoto_Masuki> Oh cool thanks
[22:24] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: may work, I doubt it
[22:25] <actionParsnip> !info hamachi
[22:25] <actionParsnip> !find hamachi
[22:25] <Hishamoto_Masuki> kk
[22:25] <actionParsnip> Hishamoto_Masuki: hamachi looks like a VPN to me
[22:25] <Hishamoto_Masuki> brb
[22:26] <jakemp> Is there an easy way to get perfmon working in Ubuntu?
[22:26] <jakemp> or something else that measures performance counters without having to alter the source code?
[22:27] <actionParsnip> jakemp: do you mean like CPU use and so forth?
[22:27] <jakemp> I mean performance counters
[22:28] <ubuntu> hi, how can i make ubuntu the default grub boot OS
[22:28] <jakemp> they can measure CPU performance, cache misses, number of cycles, number of loads and stores, etc.
[22:28] <OerHeks> Zybe my bad :(  > cat /etc/issue
[22:28] <actionParsnip> Guest21653: what is the default now?
[22:28] <OerHeks> Zybe oeps, check the suggestion from actionParsnip , do you have universe enabled ?
[22:28] <Guest21653> backtrack
[22:29] <jakemp> I know intel has a nice tool for measuring the performance counters and power consumption, but aside from perfmon, I see nothing from AMD
[22:29] <Guest21653> i was here before and someone solved this easy it was just like "something-grub" then "update-grub"
[22:29] <Thisguy_> I'm helping someone set their server up with a firewall. They downloaded an executable text file to config it for them but it has a line I don't think makes any sense...
[22:29] <actionParsnip> Guest21653: if you run: cat /etc/grub.d/40_custom    do you see anything about ubuntu or backtrack?
[22:29] <Thisguy_> $IPT -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 44 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT - where $IPT is /sbin/iptables
[22:30] <Thisguy_> Is it me or is it saying to allow packets going OUT in the INPUT chain?
[22:30] <Guest21653> 1 sec
[22:30] <actionParsnip> Guest21653: do you only have ubuntu and backtrack installed?
[22:30] <darkprincess> Anyone know how to disable libdevil sse3 interactions? I need to disable as it is stopping a game from running because my processor doesn't support SSE3 interactions
[22:30] <Zybe> Just activated it, and I do find the application in the software center. But still not when using apt-get, and now I can install the software. But I would like to know what to do to be able to use the apt-get command in terminal.
[22:31] <Thisguy_> Does using --dport on the INPUT table in iptables make any sense?
[22:31] <Guest21653> yes
[22:31] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: you may need to compile the lib and disable the feature
[22:31] <Guest21653> it does not show ubuntu or backtrack with that command
[22:31] <Thisguy_> Hm
[22:31] <darkprincess> How do I do that?
[22:31] <Zybe> Do I have to type anything in my terminal to update the repos? OerHeks
[22:31] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: you'll need the source and compile it
[22:31] <soroush> I've made an ubuntu usb stick but when I change any option in its grub, I see only a gray screen and the usbuntu 12.04 light goes off. I have an asus ubuntu certified laptop. I deleted the partitions to install us
[22:32] <OerHeks> Zybe, do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wireshark " would solve it
[22:32] <soroush> to install ubuntu 12.04
[22:32] <Guest21653> yes, i only have ubuntu and backtrack installed
[22:33] <Guest21653> the problem is whenever you install one of these debian based ones it seems to make itself the default
[22:33] <Guest21653> i just want to change the default back to ubuntu
[22:34] <Guest21653> anyone??
[22:34] <blackshirt> yes
[22:34] <Costeelation> guys
[22:34] <Guest21653> ?
[22:35] <Zybe> OerHeks: Yes it did, thanks for the help :D, just one last question, does what does && do?
[22:35] <Zybe> minus one "does"
[22:35] <actionParsnip> Guest21653: I'd ask in #grub as well
[22:35] <Costeelation> someone know the name of the app for change the gtk+ color  ? i don't like the orange :(
[22:36] <OerHeks> Zybe, it is used to perform 2 actions on 1 line, " ;  " will do the same
[22:36] <darkprincess> actionParsnip how do I configure and compile a RPM file
[22:36] <OerHeks> Zybe have fun
[22:36] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: rpm isn't for Ubuntu
[22:37] <Karlo_> Zybe, the difference is that "X; Y" always executes Y after X, while "X && Y" will only execute Y if X completed successfully.
[22:38] <Zybe> OerHeks: This Linux thing will probly end up with me pulling half my hair out and rocking back and forth in a corner.... but I will try :D
[22:38] <OerHeks> Karlo_, nice, thanks, i didn't know that.
[22:38] <MrJacobi33> haha zybe, i feel the same
[22:38] <systems> i am trying to put an atx switch on a serial header inorder for ubuntu to run a script once the switch is triggered. Is this even possible???
[22:38] <MrJacobi33> ~MrJacobi33
[22:39] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: you can grab source debs from the repos
[22:39] <darkprincess> What repo?
[22:40] <darkprincess> !find libdevil
[22:40] <Zybe> !q
[22:41] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: the same one you got the binary deb from
[22:43] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: sudo apt-get source install libdevil1c2; sudo apt-get install libdevil-dev
[22:43] <darkprincess> How do I configure those?
[22:43] <qmanjr5> Does Wubi install on another partition as the current Windows installation, or does ir overwrite it?
[22:44] <darkprincess> It doesn't install on a another partition afaik.
[22:44] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: you'll need to read the readme file, see how you can disable sse3
[22:44] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: no, it extracts the source to the pwd
[22:45] <darkprincess> I need to build it with --disable-sse3 added to the configure command.
[22:45] <darkprincess> But I have no clue how to do that.
[22:46] <Adior> :|
[22:46] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: install the build-essential package too
[22:47] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: the configure command will be in the source code you downloaded
[22:47] <ccbn> Hello, I'm looking for assistance with using clvm to lock Logical Volumes on an LVM Volume Group shared by 2 machines via fibre channel.
[22:47] <darkprincess> You'll need to elaberate on the build-essential package.
[22:48] <cha0s_> I recently downloaded miro and it became my default bit torrent app but i want to make transmission the default again any help?
[22:50] <zykotick9> qmanjr5: neither.  wubi installs to a file, inside windows.  IMO wubi = fail.  best of luck.
[22:50] <ccbn> darkprincess: what elaboration do you need on the build-essentials package?
[22:51] <darkprincess> Where do I get it?
[22:51] <ccbn> darkprincess: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[22:51] <darkprincess> apt-get install build-essenstial?
[22:51] <ccbn> darkprincess: yes
[22:51] <jayar> anyone ever use Testdisk?
[22:51] <ccbn> darkprincess: what is your end goal?
[22:51] <actionParsnip> darkprincess: its a package, to be installed, what more is there to elaborate
[22:51] <darkprincess> Unable to locate.
[22:52] <ccbn> darkprincess: sudo apt-get update
[22:52] <actionParsnip> !info build-essential | darkprincess
[22:52] <Pici> darkprincess: you need to spell it properly.
[22:52] <celso_> is ubuntu 12.10 already out?
[22:52] <DaemonicApathy> Tomorrow.
[22:52] <actionParsnip> celso_: ask in #ubuntu+1
[22:52] <celso_> thanks.
[22:52] <EyePulp> howdy - I just dropped a foo.conf file in /etc/init/ for a new upstart script, but sudo service foo start doesn't seem to know the file exists.  Is there some sort of refresh interval for the contents od /etc/init/ ?
[22:52] <somethingoranoth> Question.
[22:53] <darkprincess> ccbn: To rebuild libdevil with it configured with --disable-sse3
[22:53] <ccbn> darkprincess: I recommend installing the 'bash-completion' packages from the repositories as well. It will allow you to tab-complete package names rather than risk mispelling.
[22:53] <EyePulp> the actual error is "start: Unknown job: foo"
[22:53] <celso_> another question: is it normal to have no sound playing and hearing some noise on my headphones? shouldn't that be off?
[22:53] <Pici> ccbn: bash-completion is part of standard, it should be installed by default.
[22:54] <somethingoranoth> If I was to uninstall lightdm what all would I have to run from a login terminal to get x and my window manager (openbox) and whatever else I'd need to run?
[22:54] <zykotick9> somethingoranoth: "startx"
[22:54] <ccbn> darkprincess: I've actually had to do this for squid enough to write up a wiki article that may help you. https://apps.education.ucsb.edu/wiki/Rebuild_Debian_packages_with_altered_./configure_options
[22:54] <jrib> somethingoranoth: startx and a sane ~/.xinitrc
[22:54] <ccbn> Pici: I thought it might be the case.
[22:55] <somethingoranoth> startx by itself literally just starts x without a WM or Desktop environment for me though..
[22:55] <jrib> somethingoranoth: so create a ~/.xinitrc
[22:55] <zykotick9> somethingoranoth: check jrib's ~/.xinitrc suggestion
[22:56] <zykotick9> somethingoranoth: side note, do you use wireless?
[22:56] <stuck109> can someone recommend a word application that can read and write .pdf?  I have open office and is not reading the file
[22:57] <celso_> Maybe master PDF editor?
[22:59] <darkprincess> ccbn: I think I've got this.
[22:59] <celso_> @ stuck109  try Master PDF editor
[22:59] <jayar> anyone know TestDisk? i'm close to restoring the backup, just not sure what to select here...
[23:00] <ccbn> jayar: what options is it giving you
[23:00] <jayar> heres a pastebin of the screen
[23:00] <jayar> http://pastebin.com/UPvRr1Rn
[23:00] <Braber01> stuck109: you could try to learn LaTeX I've learned it but of corse I love learning new languages. I don't know about you.
[23:00] <darkprincess> ccbn: What do I do after configuring?
[23:01] <jayar> if i select D (deleted) it says structure ok, but does that mean it will restore the deleted partition, or delete the partition?
[23:01] <darkprincess> Build?
[23:01] <john_doe_jr> How do you find the dependancies of a certain package?
[23:01] <MonkeyDust> stuck109  try inkscape
[23:01] <jrib> john_doe_jr: « apt-cache depends PACKAGE » but why?
[23:02] <john_doe_jr> jrib
[23:02] <john_doe_jr> jrib: well, I'm trying to install a deb package on ubuntu using alien
[23:02] <jrib> john_doe_jr: why?  What package?  alien is *bad*
[23:02] <ccbn> darkprincess: sudo debuild -us -uc -b in the libdevil directory that was downloaded when you did apt-get source
[23:02] <darkprincess> And thats all?
[23:02] <john_doe_jr> jrib: I'm beginning to realize that alien is bad…
[23:03] <ccbn> darkprincess: and then find the generated .deb file and run 'sudo dpkg -i ./libdevil-xyz.deb'
[23:03] <john_doe_jr> jrib: here's the package: http://code.google.com/p/nofolder/downloads/detail?name=ifolder3-enterprise-<IP_ADDRESS>91.1-3.1.x86_64.rpm&can=2&q=label%3AServer-64
[23:03] <darkprincess> debuild: command not found.
[23:04] <ccbn> darkprincess: sudo apt-get install devscripts
[23:04] <ccbn> darkprincess: then do the debuild step again
[23:04] <jrib> ccbn: it's a good idea to do a "dch -i", document your change, and append something like "~ccbn1" to the package version too. Also, the "./configure" step is not necessary and neither is "sudo" for "apt-get source"
[23:04] <ccbn> jrib: thanks for the input, I should clarify that this isn't best practice, just something that has worked in the past. I'll update the article
[23:06] <nydel> is 12.10 available for wubi installs yet
[23:08] <darkprincess> ccbn: dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -D -us -uc -b failed
[23:08] <ccbn> darkprincess: are you root?
[23:08] <darkprincess> Yep.
[23:09] <jrib> darkprincess: you shouldn't be root
[23:09] <jrib> though that's probably not the cause of your failed build...
[23:09] <ccbn> jrib: I actually did this to the clvm package yesterday and I couldn't get debuild to work without root privs, what gives?
[23:10] <jrib> ccbn: probably related to grabbing the sources as root
[23:10] <ccbn> jrib: that makes sense :/
[23:10] <darkprincess> Same without root.
[23:11] <obtrusivemouse> hi i have a questions about wm's
[23:11] <jilebedev> Hi - quick question: can you recommend a good command-line tool for an overview of the physical disk devices, their partitions, and software RAID devices and their partitions on ubuntu? lshw's doesn't really tell me what software RAID devices are configured on my server.
[23:11] <jrib> obtrusivemouse: just ask
[23:11] <jrib> john_doe_jr: you specifically need this software and not some software that does something similar (sync folders)?
[23:11] <obtrusivemouse> jcrib, http://xenull.deviantart.com/art/gStruct-Archlinux-OB-busy-303424639 what kind of wm is that and can i have it work on ubuntu?
[23:11] <ccbn> darkprincess: is it giving you any output other than 'failed'
[23:12] <zykotick9> jilebedev: (i don't do raid) but does "df -h" or just "mount" help you at all?
[23:12] <SolarisBoy> jilebedev: df , fdisk
[23:12] <obtrusivemouse> jcrib, also is there any power/ resource advantages to these minimalist wm's?
[23:12] <john_doe_jr> jrib: my boss wants me to install it on an Ubuntu Server
[23:13] <Treaver> Wow. I thought that Ubuntu 12.10 LTS was being released today
[23:13] <zykotick9> obtrusivemouse: obviously.  basically every WM is lighter then lxde, SO you have more resources to run your programs.
[23:14] <jrib> john_doe_jr: is this helpful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iFolderInstall (check for outdated advice)
[23:14] <john_doe_jr> jrib: I know but I'm getting dependencies problems when I follow that guide
[23:14] <obtrusivemouse> so is there a recommended wm  for ubuntu or do you just go with whatever?
[23:14] <Treaver> Awe they changed the date to tomorrow.
[23:15] <jrib> john_doe_jr: can you be more specific?
[23:15] <zykotick9> obtrusivemouse: try them all.  find one you like.
[23:15] <darkprincess> Unity is derping out
[23:15] <john_doe_jr> jrib: well I deleted my virtual machine so I don't have the error message
[23:15] <darkprincess> Gimi 2 secs
[23:16] <jrib> john_doe_jr: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!forum/ifolder-ubuntu-debian-dev has some recent posts
[23:16] <obtrusivemouse> zykotick9, so i already posted this earlier but can you tell me what this is? http://xenull.deviantart.com/art/gStruct-Archlinux-OB-busy-303424639 i'd like to get something like that
[23:16] <jrib> john_doe_jr: this is good too https://wiki.ubuntu.com/iFolderPackaging
[23:17] <zykotick9> obtrusivemouse: fluxbox or openbox would be my "guess".
[23:17] <Treaver> Jogn it's a Architecture for Linux
[23:17] <Treaver> It basically changes what everything (windows, colors, icons) look like
[23:18] <jrib> john_doe_jr: http://code.google.com/p/nofolder/downloads/list? has some tar.gz available
[23:19] <obtrusivemouse> zykotick9, after a lil search, it's awesome3 vint .xegau/n- rosgic+
[23:19] <obtrusivemouse> zykotick9, .xdefaults config * soory about that
[23:20] <john_doe_jr> jrib: thanks..I'm just going to try it again and I'll post the errors I'm getting
[23:20] <jrib> did your cat attack you or something obtrusivemouse
[23:20] <Treaver> @Ubuntu when is 12.10 being released what time tomorrow?
[23:21] <jrib> Treaver: when it's ready
[23:21] <obtrusivemouse> jcrib, sounds about right
[23:21] <alecb> how can I stop NetworkManager from running on startup/just kill it once I've already started?
[23:22] <darkprincess> Err dpkg-buildpackage: warning: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting.

[23:22] <zykotick9> obtrusivemouse: i doubt that's awesome (but i guess it could be).  i use awesome, here is a pic of my current desktop http://imagebin.org/232328
[23:23] <ccbn> darkprincess: sudo apt-get build-dep libdevil and then try building again
[23:23] <ccbn> darkprincess: this should install dependencies for building libdevil, which the error message seems to say you lack
[23:24] <jrib> zykotick9: how can you follow #ubuntu irc without colored names :x
[23:25] <darkprincess> !find libdevil
[23:25] <zykotick9> jrib: coloured names, i didn't even use that when i used xchat ;)
[23:25] <iceroot> how to see which connection (wlan or eth0) is used by default for communication with the router on <IP_ADDRESS>? route output http://pastebin.com/HBUQmTi2
[23:26] <iceroot> ah first lind.... must be blind
[23:26] <iceroot> line
[23:26] <ccbn> darkprincess: the 'apt-file' tool might be of use to you. you can do 'apt-file search filename' to figure out what package has a particular file
[23:26] <nydel> from terminal, ls command (or other) to see (readable) size of a directory inode & its contents?
[23:27] <nydel> please & thank you
[23:27] <jrib> nydel: uh, does "du -s" do what you want?
[23:28] <nydel> jrib: yes. well, du -sh, the h for human-readable
[23:28] <nydel> jrib: thank you very kindly
[23:28] <nydel> appreciated
[23:28] <nydel> there are so many little linux commands i never picked up yet. now i get to mess around with du until it leads me to the next thing. i love information!
[23:29] <jrib> !rute | nydel
[23:29] <jrib> nydel: if you haven't browsed the rute book, you'd probably enjoy it
[23:29] <Dinomuffin> nydel: you should hang around here then, I find I learn new things everytime I come here
[23:29] <Dinomuffin> like apt-file :D
[23:30] <nydel> jrib: well thank you! that's just wonderful stuff!
[23:30] <systems> i am trying to put an atx switch on a serial header inorder for ubuntu to run a script once the switch is triggered. Is this even possible???
[23:30] <nydel> Dinomuffin: this place is really turning into a warm & respectable place. it's one of the last beacons of hope on all of IRC (& intraweb)
[23:30] <nydel> :)
[23:31] <Radikal08> I still cant believe I have a partition with Ubuntu 9.04 installed on this pc, after so many years
[23:31] <john_doe_jr> jrib: Alright I'm @ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iFolderInstall and I'm @ the 'Installing Simias' …I 'sudo dpkg -i libsimias*deb simias-client*deb' command…all I have a checked out source code folder named simias-<IP_ADDRESS>00.0…when I change directory (cd) into that folder it contains a autogen.sh…how do I get the simias software installed..any ideas?
[23:31] <systems> how do ubuntu server into a smtp server????
[23:32] <Pulgafree> Good Morning/Afternoon/Evenning EVERYONE!
[23:32] <jrib> systems: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/email-services.html
[23:32] <darkprincess> ccbn: checking SSE3... yes
[23:32] <Pulgafree> A former Windows user says HI!
[23:33] <darkprincess> ccbn: Even after ./configure --disable-sse3
[23:33] <Radikal08> A former Mac user says Hello!
[23:33] <Radikal08> We come from all different paths in the world
[23:33] <Dinomuffin> Current Windows Mac and Linux user saying hi
[23:33] <Dinomuffin> I don't like to limit myself
[23:33] <Dinomuffin> :P
[23:33] <jrib> john_doe_jr: did you receive any errors when you installed the .deb packages you created?
[23:33] <ccbn> darkprincess: you have to edit the rules file, as jrib pointed out, the ./configure step is basically worthless
[23:33] <zykotick9> Radikal08: do you have an ubuntu support question?  if so, ask away (all on one line, with details).
[23:33] <nhck> systems: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer
[23:34] <Radikal08> Man same here,its just that my macbook has stopped working :( so i run windows and ubuntu on this map :(
[23:34] <Radikal08> Oh no, not yet.. sorry, i thought i could chat here..
[23:34] <Pulgafree> Me neither. I have Windows 7 on my laptop too. But Ubuntu/Linux is just way better than Windows.
[23:34] <darkprincess> Where do I get that?
[23:34] <zykotick9> !ot
[23:34] <darkprincess> ./find?
[23:34] <ccbn> darkprincess: are you on 12.04?
[23:34] <Dinomuffin> oh yeah, i forgot about ubuntu-offtopic
[23:34] <darkprincess> Yep.
[23:34] <Dinomuffin> :/
[23:34] <Radikal08> Thank you, and i apologize
[23:34] <john_doe_jr> jrib: yes but the website says to just use sudo apt-get -f install to install it
[23:34] <Pulgafree> Me too
[23:34] <alecb> how can I stop NetworkManager from running on startup/just kill it once I've already started?
[23:35] <jrib> john_doe_jr: what errors did you get?
[23:35] <ccbn> I had typed in 'libd' and tab completed it looking for libdevil, there were 666 possibilities, haha
[23:35] <jrib> alecb: forever?  One way is to just uninstall it I guess.  I don't know the "right" way
[23:35] <darkprincess> Lol
[23:35] <zykotick9> alecb: 1st - why do you want to stop N-M from running?  2nd - using interfaces file should disable N-M for that device.
[23:35] <john_doe_jr> jrib: libsimias*deb cannot access archive: no such file or directory
[23:35] <ccbn> darkprincess: did you apt-get source the libdevil1c2 package or the dev package
[23:36] <alecb> jrib: trying to avoid an uninstall. I'm trying to experiment with some stuff -- want to make sure nothing is trying to connect to a network except me
[23:36] <nydel> jrib: just got mozilla to gunzip the website (rute user's tuto..) -- is "rute" a cute spelling of "root"?
[23:36] <Radikal08> I do have a question actually. Ubuntu 12.04.01 doesnt run very well on my computer. This version is alot cleaner than 9.04 that I usd with different graphical tweaks (compiz or gnome??)... I dont know why the last version is slow.. I wonder if there is any easy way to speed it up by disabling processes that i might not need or so? I hope this is a common issue and that maybe someone knows what to do.. if not, i guess my cmoputer is
[23:36] <Radikal08>  just to slow for it
[23:36] <darkprincess> libdebil1c2
[23:36] <darkprincess> libdevil1c2*
[23:36] <markovh> there seems to be a lot of posts out there on hack job fixes on package authentication errors. Is there a guide or can someone tell me exactly what causes this error. How are packages normally authenticated? Is it getting a signature for the file that it's about to download and checking if it's been signed by a public key it has in store or something?
[23:36] <alecb> zykotick9: want to try connecting to a wifi network with just iwconfig/iwlist/etc, and I want to be sure nothing except me is trying to connect to a network
[23:36] <nydel> Radikal08: i would recommend that you turn off all compiz effects and disable ALL desktop/window effects
[23:36] <ccbn> darkprincess: you need to cd into the devil folder than gets created, then into the debian folder, there's a rules file in there that has sse3 enabled by default
[23:37] <nydel> Radikal08: myself, i have switched to cinnamon. you can get the package with apt-get or aptitude. or just use gnome. also there are other managers other than unity (that is what you are using) which are much less graphics-heavy
[23:37] <jrib> nydel: yes, though I don't know if there's some other meaning I am not aware of
[23:37] <zykotick9> alecb: i've never manually setup wifi sorry, don't know the specifics for it.  i use wicd on my netbook (unfortunatly, you should consider wicd deprecated)
[23:37] <john_doe_jr> jrib: should I just ./autogen.sh —prefix=/usr -sysconfdir=/etc
[23:37] <nydel> Radikal08: how important is it to you that your computer look flashy
[23:37] <cdavis> What time zone does 12.10 get release in?
[23:37] <Radikal08> Nydel: I have CompizConfig Settings manager... I know how to disable the window effects, but could you help me how to disable the desktop and cmopiz effects?
[23:37] <Radikal08> Nydel: it is not very important
[23:37] <jrib> cdavis: when it's ready
[23:37] <darkprincess> ccbn: so how do I disable it?
[23:38] <alecb> zykotick9: from some stuff I read it didn't seem that complicated, once you know the essid and the key its just one iwconfig command
[23:38] <alecb> anyway, what's the interfaces file I'd want to edit?
[23:38] <darkprincess> !find cinnamon
[23:38] <nydel> Radikal08: cinnamon is small, and it's beautiful - i really think yo should just try that.
[23:38] <nydel> darkprincess: i think you can just apt-get install cinnamon
[23:38] <noiro> moo
[23:38] <nydel> Radikal08: are you opposed to trying somethign other than unity/compiz?
[23:39] <darkprincess> Nope, can't locate package.
[23:39] <zykotick9> alecb: honestly, jrib's uninstall do disable is almost the official ubuntu method :(  but renaming the /etc/init/N-M script to N-M.disabled and reboot should also work.
[23:39] <darkprincess> I heard compiz messes with fullscreen games.
[23:39] <Radikal08> Nydel: I can try something else, because to be honest im not very into compiz/unity as i dont know what it raelly is at the moment
[23:39] <nydel> darkprincess: you have to add the linux mint repo's - i forgot
[23:39] <jilebedev> zykotick9: SolarisBoy hey, thanks for the df recommendation. df -hT, parted -l, and lshw -l are what I needed.
[23:40] <zykotick9> alecb: n-m may or may-not get in the way of that iwconfig though - i don't know.  if you used /etc/network/interfaces i know N-M will be disabled.  best of luck!
[23:40] <sebsebseb> hi
[23:40] <cdavis> jrib: Are you trying to be nasty or sincere?
[23:40] <noiro> anyone tried running GW2 in wine? I am getting a clear box on booting it with a massive graphics driver error in Term.
[23:40] <nydel> Radikal08: http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2012/01/05/how-to-install-cinnamon-in-ubuntu-11-10/
[23:40] <jrib> cdavis: serious
[23:40] <zykotick9> jilebedev: glad to help ;)
[23:40] <cdavis> jrib: ok, thanks
[23:40] <stuck109> can someone recommend a user friendly defrag app?
[23:40] <sebsebseb> !defrag
[23:40] <jrib> cdavis: there's never been a fixed release time.  Afaik, that's still true for tomorrow
[23:40] <Radikal08> Nydel: Thank you, I will check it otu!
[23:40] <sebsebseb> stuck109: see above
[23:40] <sebsebseb> :)
[23:40] <Dinomuffin> stuck109: why do you need a defrag app? Just curious
[23:41] <nydel> Radikal08: i sent the wrong link
[23:41] <nydel> Radikal08: http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/?page_id=61
[23:41] <alecb> zykotick9: wait, what I do to /etc/network/interfaces?
[23:41] <sebsebseb> hi zykotick9
[23:41] <cdavis> jrib: k, I am hoping to get up early and start the download before heading for work
[23:41] <nydel> see the link under ubuntu for the correct repo. don't be intimidated, it is SO worth it. i LOVE my ubuntu install now that i got rid of unity.
[23:41] <sebsebseb> nydel: and replaced with?
[23:41] <ccbn> darkprincess: did you do the apt-get source libdevil1c2?
[23:42] <nydel> sebsebseb: http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/?page_id=61
[23:42] <darkprincess> Yep.
[23:42] <noiro> Unity is crap. :P  I'm just not a fan of KDE (it just looks so...bubbly)
[23:42] <nydel> sebsebseb: cinnamon
[23:42] <sebsebseb> noiro: oh right ok :)
[23:42] <nydel> beautiful beautiful cinnamon!!
[23:42] <somethingoranoth> hey everyone quick question
[23:42] <stuck109> running dually with windows
[23:42] <ccbn> darkprincess: cd into the devil directory that was created, and then into the debian directory in there
[23:42] <nydel> love it! it should be a fallback default for if (read: when) compiz fails
[23:42] <darkprincess> Ok.
[23:42] <jrib> john_doe_jr: so you did the bzr branch step?  And did mk-build-deps work ok?
[23:42] <somethingoranoth> I removed lightdm earlier and type up a .xinitrc script to use instead
[23:43] <noiro> sebsebseb: ?  This is the first time I"ve tried giving Ubuntu a shot at gaming without having to boot into Win for gaming. :P
[23:43] <somethingoranoth> unfortunately upon removing lightdm Ubuntu failed to bood properly
[23:43] <john_doe_jr> jrib: yup…I'm @ the last step
[23:43] <jrib> somethingoranoth: in what way?
[23:43] <sebsebseb> noiro: oh ok :)
[23:43] <darkprincess> ccbn: Then?
[23:43] <zykotick9> alecb: honestly, for wireless - perhaps nothing.  i've never setup wireless manually before!  sorry, i'm useless.  BUT if any of the wireless setup requires editing that file - then N-M will be disabled.  good luck man.
[23:43] <jrib> john_doe_jr: by "last step", you mean the "sudo dpkg -i simias-build-deps_1.0_all.deb"?  Or later?
[23:43] <ccbn> darkprincess: now, edit the rules file in that folder, adding line 10 from this pastebin into the relevant spot: http://pastebin.com/08PGHjqV
[23:44] <ccbn> darkprincess: that's just a snippet, just add that line, don't delete lines not shown
[23:44] <noiro> zykotick9: I'd like to think ubuntu manual wireless setup would be far more simplistic than Arch at least. Usually just connect it to a cable and update the system.
[23:44] <somethingoranoth> I'm using 12.10 I noticed it ran a few more steps in the boot process after saying lightdm loading failed then it would just hang at one of the options (usually stopping mount filesystems or something along those lines)
[23:44] <john_doe_jr> jrib: nope sudo dpkg -i libsimias*deb simias-client*deb
[23:44] <xangua> !12.10 | somethingoranoth
[23:44] <ccbn> darkprincess: then save the file and run debuild or whatever package builder you are using
[23:45] <somethingoranoth> ugh...
[23:45] <zykotick9> noiro: i'd think so as well ;)
[23:45] <somethingoranoth> I'm sure its not a problem with Quantal though.
[23:45] <jrib> john_doe_jr: was there interesting output from bzr-buildpackage?
[23:45] <zoktar> hmm one of my monitors is having issue granting correctly formated , "EDID block does NOT conform to EDID 1.3!" as such it only gets 2 resolutions. i read that i have to "fix" the edid from windows. Is my monitor faulty or is it just the edid code reading it wrong?. http://pastebin.com/8A40HPYN
[23:45] <noiro> I ran Arch for 3 months and decided it wasn't worth the hassle. I learned a ton, mind you, but it just isn't worth it in the long run.
[23:45] <john_doe_jr> jrib: nothing that the documentation didn't state would happen
[23:46] <ccbn> darkprincess: make sure you add the "\" on the preceeding line as well
[23:46] <jrib> john_doe_jr: yet you have no .debs created in ../build-area?
[23:46] <john_doe_jr> jrib: yup exactly
[23:46] <darkprincess> --enable-sse3=no \ ?
[23:47] <zykotick9> noiro: discussing arch (or even ubuntu) is offtopic here.  see "/msg ubottu ot" in your irc client, and look for a pm from ubottu
[23:47] <alecb> oh, help.ubuntu has a section on it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager#Disabling_NetworkManager
[23:47] <nydel> question: even though i have firefox set as my default browser, most programs are opening urls in midori -- why is this & how do i fix it?
[23:47] <nydel> thank you & please.
[23:47] <jrib> john_doe_jr: let me try here I guess
[23:47] <ccbn> darkprincess: you don't need the "\" on that line, it's the last line. you need it on what is line 9 in the paste bin output
[23:48] <michealPW> zoktar: It could mean that your monitor's EDID code is wrong. I've never heard of that happening but I'm sure it's possible. In that case I think you would have to have a generic xorg.conf created and manually add your monitor's supported modes. You can generate modes easily with the gtf tool (Generalized Timing Formula)
[23:48] <john_doe_jr> jrib: man that would be awesome if you did that…I've @ a completely loss why no debs are being created in the build area
[23:49] <Radikal08> help! I just downloaded cinnamon adding a link to my PPA... and i updated it
[23:49] <Radikal08> but where can i find the installation file?
[23:49] <Braber01> some op from #backtrack-linux kicked me because I supposidly spammed, he kept asking me what wireless card I had, and I told him, he kept prompting me for it. and so I did /exce -o inxi -i and he kicked me.
[23:49] <ccbn> darkprincess: you can copy the file wholesale from this pastebin link if you want, but be weary of what you blindly run from the internet. Diff it against the original copy to see what I've changed if you don't implicitly trust me http://paste.ubuntu.com/1286085/
[23:49] <michealPW> zoktar: You would just give gtf the resolution and refresh rate (1024 768 60, for example) and it will give you the proper modeline for that resolution/rate. Then you just copy/paste that into your xorg.conf in your Monitor's section.
[23:50] <OerHeks> Radikal08, Cinnamon is not supported here,  support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org
[23:50] <rangergord> hi
[23:50] <john_doe_jr> jrib: I'm on a 64 bit machine if that matters though
[23:50] <ccbn> darkprincess: your rules file should look like that
[23:50] <noiro> Anyone know whether a full VNC session or an X11 session consumes more bandiwidth? My Uni's connection is terrible and wasn't sure if a ssh setup would be worth my while.
[23:50] <darkprincess> oh I see.
[23:50] <rangergord> is there a tool or somesuch I can download which will give me system-wide keyboard shortcuts that are as similar to Windows as possible?
[23:50] <nydel> Radikal08: type this
[23:50] <nydel> sudo apt-get update
[23:50] <darkprincess> The \ shows that there is a new line?
[23:50] <rangergord> or a gconf prepared file or whatever
[23:50] <nydel> sudo apt-get install cinnamon
[23:50] <Radikal08> oh, thank you Nydel!
[23:51] <ccbn> darkprincess: it shows that the command is continued on a new line
[23:51] <nydel> Radikal08: no problem, thank /you/ for trying cinnamon, i really want it to get more popular.
[23:51] <nydel> i'm not selling it & i don't work on it - but i love it
[23:51] <darkprincess> Then compile?
[23:51] <michealPW> rangergord: Are you using regular Ubuntu 12.04?
[23:51] <Radikal08> Its always fun to try something new! But even though I use cinnamon, it is still Ubuntu that i am using right?
[23:51] <OerHeks> nydel dont make them think we support cinnamon
[23:52] <rangergord> michaelni: yeah
[23:52] <nydel> Radikal08: yes it's still ubuntu. we do not technically support cinnamon
[23:52] <michealPW> rangergord: If I remember, you can hold down your Windows key (The "Super" key) for a little bit and it will bring up a list of hotkeys. I don't think it's a complete list, though.
[23:52] <rangergord> michaelni: let me repeat that...I installed gnome-panel or whatever to make it like it was in 10.04
[23:52] <rangergord> OK, I'll try that when I'm back on my desktop
[23:52] <nydel> Radikal08: but you will have the option of using unity (as it is now) still even after you install cinnamon
[23:53] <michealPW> rangergord: For a complete list, I think you can goto System Settings and search for shortcuts and there's a utility that allows you to add new shortcuts which also lists the ones already set
[23:53] <nydel> Radikal08: at the login screen, in the upper right corner of the box around your name where you enter your password, you can click the circle & select cinnamon or unity or gnome
[23:53] <darkprincess> ccbn: Do I need to do anything after the debuild command?
[23:53] <jrib> john_doe_jr: i'm on 64bit too
[23:54] <darkprincess> nydel: Does it replace Unity when you reboot?
[23:54] <jrib> john_doe_jr: I get "bzr: ERROR: Unable to find the needed upstream tarball for package simias, version <IP_ADDRESS>00.0" at the bzr-buildpackage step
[23:54] <Radikal08> Nydel: oh okay, thank you!
[23:55] <nydel> darkprincess: no, you have to select it at the login menu or you would log in to unity (as it is now)
[23:55] <nydel> Radikal08: yw
[23:55] <darkprincess> nydel: Will the option be in plain view or do I need to look for it?
[23:55] <ccbn> darkprincess: just install the package if debuild runs successfully
[23:55] <john_doe_jr> jrib: funny mine worked…do you have bzr installed?
[23:56] <darkprincess> ccbn: Finished running lintian
[23:56] <darkprincess> I presume thats sucessful?
[23:56] <jrib> john_doe_jr: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1286091/ yes, bzr is installed
[23:57] <jrib> john_doe_jr: it actually may just be because I have not installed the deb :P
[23:57] <darkprincess> ccbn: Where do I find the .deb package?
[23:57] <john_doe_jr> jrib: yup…hey I noticed that it says, "Experienced users should add the Ubuntu Maverick universe repository to pull in the libflaim* dependency"…what does that mean?
[23:58] <zoktar> michealPW, alright, thanks
[23:58] <ccbn> darkprincess: should be, it will tell you if it failed, look for the built deb packge and install it
[23:58] <michealPW> zoktar: Np. You okay to get an xorg.conf created?
[23:58] <ccbn> darkprincess: it should be in the folder you apt-get source'ed from
[23:58] <john_doe_jr> jrib: by the way, I'm also on 12.04 Server
[23:59] <john_doe_jr> jrib: 64bit
[23:59] <jrib> john_doe_jr: that's only relevant for 10.04.  10.04 didn't have those packages, so it suggested people add 10.10 repos
[23:59] <ccbn> darkprincess: when in doubt you can force mlocate to update the database (not sure on best practice for this) and use locate to find it
