[11:04] <Luke-T> can ssomeone help me with a wifi problem im having on 14.04?
[11:04] <Ben64> Luke-T: not if you never ask a question
[11:04] <OerHeks> Luke-T, just ask your real wuestion and find ou
[11:04] <OerHeks> *question
[11:05] <Luke-T> I'm having trouble connecting to a wifi network but i can connect to networks through ethernet, not sure what else to tell you
[11:05] <jjavaholic> how can I install warcraft via wine on ubuntu 14.04 I the installed keeps crashing on load?
[11:05] <EmsY> anyone playing any games on ubuntu?
[11:06] <OerHeks> Luke-T, maybe the friver isn't loaded, do you see other networks, or not al all?
[11:06] <Luke-T> none at all, i've tried installing the broadcom driver but nothing seems to have changed
[11:06] <Ben64> Luke-T: we're going to need a lot more information. wireless card, what version of ubuntu, everything you can give
[11:06] <Ben64> jjavaholic: ask in #winehq for wine help
[11:06] <Ascavasaion> DusXMT: I beg your pardon?
[11:07] <OerHeks> Luke-T, did you reboot after installing the driver?
[11:07] <Luke-T> yes i did
[11:07] <DusXMT> EmsY: Okay, I think I know what to do
[11:07] <DusXMT> EmsY: `sudo sh'
[11:08] <Ben64> do not do that ^
[11:08] <Luke-T> and im on 14.04 so far im pretty sure the card is NetXtreme BCM57765
[11:08] <DusXMT> EmsY: `for i in $(dpkg --get-selections | cut -d '<TAB>' -f 1); do apt-get install --reinstall "$i"
[11:08] <DusXMT> The `sudo sh' is so that he can type a tab in the command
[11:08] <Ben64> "sudo -i" if you absolutely need a root shell
[11:09] <Ben64> sudo sh is wrong and shouldn't be used or suggested in this channel
[11:09] <DusXMT> he needs /bin/sh, so that <tab> isn't an auto-complete feature
[11:09] <logices> hello im new to linux, can someone show me how to connect to my vpn on startup
[11:09] <EmsY> DusXMT: is that it?
[11:09] <DusXMT> EmsY: Just one more thing to it I forgot
[11:10] <EmsY> what?
[11:10] <DusXMT> EmsY: `for i in $(dpkg --get-selections | cut -d '<TAB>' -f 1); do apt-get install --reinstall --force-yes "$i"
[11:10] <Luke-T> Ben64: any ideas?
[11:10] <EmsY> done
[11:11] <Luke-T> OerHeks, anything?
[11:11] <DusXMT> EmsY: What did it do?
[11:11] <EmsY> it's a silent command isn't it?
[11:11] <EmsY> nothing lol
[11:11] <DusXMT> EmsY: Did you copy the command over?
[11:11] <Ben64> thats a very strange command, what is the problem that is trying to fix?
[11:11] <EmsY> ye
[11:12] <DusXMT> Ben64: There are some corrupt packages on his system, this is to fix them
[11:12] <OerHeks> Luke-T, is this a macbook pro ?
[11:12] <Ben64> not sure if that will fix them
[11:12] <Ben64> but your syntax is wrong
[11:12] <Luke-T> OerHeks yes it is
[11:12] <OerHeks> Luke-T, try this solution >> sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree   >> found at  http://askubuntu.com/questions/331465/cant-connect-to-wireless-macbook-pro
[11:12] <DusXMT> Ben64: We already fixed bash and the kernel by reinstalling them
[11:12] <Ben64> for i in $(dpkg --get-selections | cut -f1); do sudo apt-get install --reinstall --force-yes "$i"
[11:13] <Luke-T> OerHeks, i'll try now thanks
[11:13] <DusXMT> Ben64: So it knows to delimit by tabs by default? The man pages say it does it by ':'s
[11:13] <Luke-T> OerHeks, says "E: Unable to locate package linux-firmware-nonfree"
[11:13] <Ben64> DusXMT: yeah, tabs are default
[11:14] <DusXMT> EmsY: Then Ben64's command does the same, but works on bash. jsut put a sudo before it in a normal terminal and it will do
[11:14] <Ben64> doesn't need a sudo at the beginning
[11:14] <OerHeks> Luke-T, odd, it is in the 14.04 repo's, try "  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade "  first
[11:14] <Ben64> syntax still bad though...
[11:15] <DusXMT> Ben64: Why?
[11:15] <EmsY> ye, doesn't need a sudo
[11:15] <EmsY> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `do'
[11:15] <EmsY> but it doesn't do anything without sudo
[11:15] <EmsY> there's like ' > ' and that's it
[11:16] <Luke-T> OerHeks, doing that now
[11:16] <DusXMT> EmsY: `for i in $(dpkg --get-selections |cut -f 1); do sudo apt-get install --reinstall --force-yes "$i"'
[11:16] <DusXMT> Ben64: Are there conventions for writing one-liners?
[11:16] <Ben64> needs ;done at the end
[11:16] <EmsY> DusXMT: the output is just '>'
[11:16] <DusXMT> oops, you're right
[11:17] <DusXMT> EmsY: now type done
[11:17] <EmsY> yep
[11:17] <DusXMT> and it will do it's thing. THis happens when you write things via keyboard
[11:17] <DusXMT> you dos tupid mistakes
[11:17] <EmsY> 0 upgrade, 0 newly installed, 1 reinstalled
[11:17] <Ben64> it should repeat that like a hundred times, heh
[11:18] <DusXMT> EmsY: It will, one by one, reinstall all of them, making sure none are corrupt. It might take a while
[11:18] <Ben64> $ dpkg --get-selections | cut -f1 | wc -l         \n            2755
[11:18] <EmsY> DusXMT: I see! :D
[11:18] <Ben64> or maybe 2755 times...
[11:18] <EmsY> Ben64: for real? :D
[11:18] <Ben64> if i ran it here, yes
[11:18] <EmsY> oh my
[11:19] <EmsY> what does that command do anyway?
[11:19] <Luke-T> OerHeks, it had 30 to upgrade so the first command might work after this is done
[11:19] <Ben64> reinstalls every package on the system
[11:19] <OerHeks> Luke-T, sounds good, let us know
[11:20] <EmsY> DusXMT:Ben64: What should I read to learn fix problem by myself. I'm using ubuntu since August and still can fix only some really easy things.
[11:20] <EmsY> *problems
[11:20] <DusXMT> EmsY: It will come with time
[11:20] <EmsY> But should I read somethin?
[11:20] <EmsY> How long have you been ubuntu user?
[11:20] <DusXMT> EmsY: We were all noobs when we started. The best you can doo is search the web, read the documentation of command line utilities, et
[11:21] <DusXMT> *etc.
[11:21] <Ben64> theres not really a thing like that. i started on redhat and broke and fixed everything myself
[11:21] <Ben64> you'll get the hang of it
[11:21] <DusXMT> EmsY: Try `man man', this will give you the documentation of the `man' utility, the manual viewer
[11:21] <EmsY> what's man man? :D
[11:21] <Petrov> What is the safest RSA - DSA or ECDSA for a ssh-server? thx
[11:21] <Ben64> man <command> will give you <command>'s manual page
[11:22] <EmsY> ok
[11:22] <Ben64> man man gives you man's man page, man.
[11:22] <DusXMT> :P
[11:22] <EmsY> so how long have you been ubuntu users guys?
[11:22] <OerHeks> Petrov, what was wrong with the last answer, RSA2048 ?
[11:22] <touil76> Hello everyone. I've got a problem with my freshly installed ubuntu 14.04.
[11:22] <Ben64> EmsY: 8 years
[11:22] <touil76> Logout takes up to 3 minutes !
[11:22] <EmsY> I'm now studying for a programmer. Stupid country, we learn only Pascal.
[11:22] <DusXMT> Ubuntu was my first distro, I used it in 2009, but ever since they put that ugly bar on the screen and other things, I switched to debian.  I thought it was because of an upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04. But I've just made a fresh install of 14.04 on the same computer and the problem keeps on appearing.
[11:24] <DusXMT> junka: I'm was just passing by, and I saw that I could help EmsY, so I did. Is something wrong witht hat
[11:24] <junka> no DusXMT
[11:25] <junka> touil76, it is not a general problem
[11:25] <PlayMCPENetwork> What is google chromes package name?
[11:25] <EmsY> junka: DusXMT is GOD. LD
[11:25] <EmsY> :D
[11:25] <junka> !chrome
[11:25] <DusXMT> EmsY: No I'm not, I don't think
[11:25] <Luke-T> OerHeks, that's done, should i retry the frst command again?
[11:25] <touil76> what do you mean junka ?
[11:25] <DusXMT> just a random linux user
[11:25] <PlayMCPENetwork> ?
[11:25] <OerHeks> Luke-T, yes, and reboot after that
[11:25] <EmsY> DusXMT: who helps others. You've got a good karma :D
[11:25] <junka> touil76, I mean that i do not face such problem
[11:26] <Luke-T> OerHeks, that's installing, thanks :)
[11:26] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, google chrome is not in our repos, download it from their site
[11:26] <junka> PlayMCPENetwork, do you mean chromium or chrome?
[11:26] <PlayMCPENetwork> I can't i cant download it from the software centre because it dosnt work so i have to install it by package name
[11:26] <touil76> I guess, it only happens on one of my computers on which ubuntu 14.04 is installed.  On the other one, the problem does not appear.
[11:27] <logices> hello im new to linux, can someone show me how to connect to my vpn on startup
[11:27] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, after installing the repo from google's website, it is called google-chrome-stable
[11:27] <Munster> \0
[11:27] <PlayMCPENetwork> yes
[11:27] <EmsY> DusXMT: Even my brother couldn't help me. He was the guy who told me that If I'm going to be a programmer, I should install ubuntu. He's now working in Vodafone.
[11:27] <junka> Google chrome is not on the repos so you will not find it. You will only find Chromium.  Teaching only Pascal.
[11:29] <junka> sudo apt-get update PlayMCPENetwork
[11:29] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, so did you add the google repo package from their site?
[11:30] <DusXMT> EmsY: Let me guess, you're from Europe? Because I'm from Slovakia (in europe) and they also only teach pascal here
[11:30] <EmsY> DusXMT: When I was going to study I thought they'll teach new languages like python.
[11:30] <PlayMCPENetwork> Well i just opened the .deb and it brings me to the software centre
[11:30] <EmsY> DusXMT: Latvia
[11:30] <touil76> junka, is there a channel other than this one which would be more specific to the trouble I have ?
[11:30] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, sounds good, continue
[11:30] <PlayMCPENetwork> It still says :E Unable to locate package google-chrome-stable
[11:30] <DusXMT> EmsY: It doesn't matter what language you use. In fact, pascal is good for beginners, since it forces clean programming habits
[11:30] <PlayMCPENetwork> :/
[11:31] <_jay> can i still download 13.10 as i dont like 14.04 <---- Buggy
[11:31] <junka> touil76, no. You are using ubuntu right? You should fill a bug report
[11:31] <DusXMT> EmsY: You might find that you actually like it once you get deeper in
[11:31] <EmsY> DusXMT: it's pretty difficult comparing to new languages
[11:31] <junka> _jay, yes
[11:31] <_jay> link pls
[11:31] <junka> !13.10 | _jay
[11:31] <robotninja> PlayMCPENetwork, is there a particular reason you want Chrome rather than Chromium? the differences are pretty minimal (minor branding and some user tracking stuff)
[11:31] <PlayMCPENetwork> Whats the package name for chromeion instead then?
[11:31] <robotninja> PlayMCPENetwork, sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
[11:32] <EmsY> DusXMT: the syntax is so weird, I hate that language :D
[11:32] <_jay> also can you remove the unity bar
[11:32] <DusXMT> EmsY: Every language is hard when you're just introduced to it
[11:32] <EmsY> Next year we'll learn Delphi.
[11:32] <_jay> or move it
[11:32] <PlayMCPENetwork> Ok thanks its installing
[11:32] <touil76> Ok junka, but with which  package being faulty ?
[11:32] <DusXMT> EmsY: I like pascal syntax. begin end.
[11:32] <EmsY> begin end lol :D:D
[11:32] <Pessimist> EmsY, ewww
[11:32] <EmsY> Pessimist: what?
[11:32] <junka> _jay, you can make it autohide or change its size
[11:33] <_jay> you cant move it around like in xfce
[11:33] <junka> no _jay
[11:33] <PlayMCPENetwork> Chromium wont open :/
[11:33] <EmsY> DusXMT: I'm trying to learn some languages by myself. I'm studying in codeacademy.com. I know HTML/CSS and PHP. A little bit of ruby.
[11:34] <EmsY> Pessimist: Eww about Delphi? :D
[11:34] <junka> touil76, i dont know. Maybe someone more experienced can help you with that
[11:34] <PlayMCPENetwork> Whats the package name for flash?
[11:35] <junka> !info pepperflash
[11:35] <DusXMT> PlayMCPENetwork: Flash is not in the default repos. Got to get.adobe.com/flashplayer to get it
[11:35] <junka> it is DusXMT
[11:35] <junka> !info adobe-flashplugin
[11:35] <PlayMCPENetwork> As i said i can't install applications on the software centre
[11:35] <junka> ah
[11:35] <OerHeks> wrong, DusXMT > PlayMCPENetwork flashplugin-installer
[11:35] <DusXMT> okay, I won't do you guys any more trouble
[11:35] <Munster> PlayMCPENetwork, type flash in the software center search
[11:36] <PlayMCPENetwork> Munster i cant install anything on software center
[11:36] <junka> PlayMCPENetwork, maybe you should go with synaptic
[11:36] <PlayMCPENetwork> E: Unable to lock the administarton directory
[11:36] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, if you use softwarecenter, CLOSE terminal
[11:37] <OerHeks> one instance to apt only
[11:37] <PlayMCPENetwork> I can't use software centre :P
[11:37] <PlayMCPENetwork> I can't install anything on it for some reason
[11:37] <Munster> PlayMCPENetwork, ok , but it'will give you the correct package name, you can use apt-get to install
[11:37] <Mrokii> Hello. I have a bunch of ".pic" files, but Ubuntu tells me that there isn't an app to open these. What app can I use to open them?
[11:37] <PlayMCPENetwork> Wait whats the command to login as root?
[11:38] <mehdix> su or sudo -i
[11:38] <junka> sudo gives you admin privilages
[11:38] <robotninja> Mrokii, .pic seems to be an old Lotus 1-2-3 image format. I can't say I've ever tried it, but GIMP may be able to open them.
[11:38] <PlayMCPENetwork> i mean how do i change vnc@vm79190 to root@
[11:38] <Munster> PlayMCPENetwork, in the terminal, sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[11:38] <PlayMCPENetwork> my sudo stuff is messed up :P
[11:39] <PlayMCPENetwork> cant use sudo :P
[11:39] <Munster> PlayMCPENetwork, then you're sunk
[11:39] <junka> i dont think it's good idea to login as admin
[11:39] <MonkeyDust> PlayMCPENetwork  then use su and then that commandnd
[11:39] <PlayMCPENetwork> Nah i just did su - root
[11:39] <Mrokii> robotninja: I don't think it's from Lotus. They are scanned images from a Mac, afaik. But Gimp tells me it can't open them.
[11:39] <PlayMCPENetwork> :P
[11:39] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, please skip the smileys
[11:40] <OerHeks> PlayMCPENetwork, so you are remote into an other machine, without sudo rights?
[11:40] <PlayMCPENetwork> Its a vps but i kinda messed up the sudo command :P
[11:41] <PlayMCPENetwork> So i just have to login as root
[11:41] <winston8> Hello guys, hope you're well. How to set environnement variable please ?
[11:41] <PlayMCPENetwork> Don't worry it worked thanks
[11:42] <winston8> Environnement variable can be set in httpd.conf ?
[11:44] <robotninja> Mrokii, to be honest I'm pretty stumped but from a little googling, XnViewMP might be able to read it: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/xnviewmp/
[11:44] <Capprentice> How to create application groups in Gnome shell 3.12 ?
[11:45] <Capprentice> I have already done that in Shell 3.10 using Dconf Editor, which seems not working anymore!
[11:46] <Mrokii> robotninja: I'll take a look, thanks!
[11:46] <robotninja> Mrokii, the software centre link seems to be broken from what I'm reading but there's a downloadable DEB file at http://www.xnview.com/en/xnviewmp/#downloads. Good luck!
[11:47] <Luke-T> OerHeks, its working, thank you so much, although it does seem to be really slow, but that is probably just my bad internet (damn Australia :P)
[11:50] <operative> +i
[11:51] <Mrokii> robotninja: Cool! It worked! Thanks! I had high hopes when I read that xnviewmp opens more than 500 formats. :-)
[11:52] <Capprentice> Anyone knows how to create "App folders" in Gnome Shell 3.12 ?
[11:52] <robotninja> Mrokii, Glad you got it sorted, happy to help :)
[11:55] <Capprentice> Anyone knows how to create "App folders" in Gnome Shell 3.12 ?
[11:55] <Capprentice> Aww ! No one using GNOME :'(
[11:55] <junka> !info xnviewmp
[12:01] <new0> hey everyone. finally i have my ubuntu up & running (with Unity/Xfce). just few setup left to do. i have 2 screens, how can i set the main screen? (when i open an app it's been open to the other screen)
[12:02] <new0> also, how would i backup all my things? (i want to make fresh installation again) and this time i want to setup up all my file/folders (personal & apps) to be in other Dir than home folder
[12:03] <Mrokii> Capprentice: According to the net: "you can now create your own app folders from GNOME Software: go to the Installed view, select some applications and then choose which folder you want them to belong to"
[12:03] <gry> new0: good question about screens but i dunno (try #xubuntu / #xfce); i personally back up entire partitions to an external drive but it's your call
[12:06] <new0> gry, great thought. i have this, now what is the files/folder that i do need to backup? also what folder can i store my original info? like /var/...personal instead of /home/~/.....
[12:06] <MonkeyDust> new0  rsync is fast for backups, but make sure you have the backup on some external device
[12:07] <MonkeyDust> !backup > new0
[12:08] <new0> gry, the thing is that my system was crashing and i have to create new user account (display graphic problem) and ni the start i didn't have the permission to enter all my older user (now i can somehow, but it's happen after rebooting. had to do it harsh [with the button on power on])
[12:08] <new0> MonkeyDust, tnx
[12:10] <gry> new0: i'd store in /var okay, just don't forget to protect it against being read by other users
[12:10] <gry> new0: however not storing in /home is unusual, i find it a bit hard to explain
[12:11] <new0> gry, far enough
[12:12] <gry> i have an <another os> user who has been doing this for years, he explains by a need to have all users on one computer without them having accounts on it
[12:26] <vitimiti> is there a way to fix libquazip0/libquazip0-dev's seg fault? If I compile quazip(1.x) from the official site, it works, but the version in the repositories simply segfaults as soon as it finds the first QuaZip function.
[12:27] <Guest73692> hi all i use new xubuntu 14.04 but how do i cnage the mac address at every startup?
[12:30] <new0> is there a way to open xchat in 2 pc and connect to the same user? so all my message here will be displayed in 2 locations?
[12:31] <gry> no, but you can do this in quassel
[12:31] <junka> Guest73692, you can set a fake mac address by editing your desired connection through networkmanager
[12:31] <gry> new0: run quasselcore on one machine, connect to it with quassel client at either of them (www.quassel-project.org, quasselcore or quassel-core package, I don't remember)
[12:32] <Guest73692> junka: is there anywhere a tutorial?
[12:32] <gry> new0: and quassel-client-qt4 I believe
[12:32] <Segfault_> Hello. Is there a better way to manage ~/.ssh/authorized_keys than manually editing it? Mine has grown pretty big and is a nightmare to manage
[12:34] <junka> right click on the applet, edit connections, edit the connection you want to spoof, set your fake MAC address on the cloned mac address field on wifi tab Guest73692
[12:35] <new0> gry
[12:35] <gry> .
[12:36] <new0> gry, sorry :) is it IRC instead of xchat u mean?
[12:36] <new0> gry, also quassel-project.org not work
[12:36] <Guest73692> junka: thanks
[12:36] <gry> quassel-irc.org
[12:37] <new0> gry righttnx
[12:40] <Fuchs> new0: also to correct gry: yes, this is possible, if you have a bouncer in between
[12:40] <Fuchs> then you can connect with whatever client you want (including xchat) as many times as you want
[12:41] <junka> anyone uses cairo-dock?
[12:41] <junka> how do i force it to use opengl?
[12:41] <new0> Fuchs, sound interesting.. what is bouncer? and how to install it?
[12:41] <Fuchs> new0: a program which sits between your IRC client and a server, playing client for the server and playing server for the client
[12:41] <Fuchs> new0: znc is an example, a good one, even
[12:42] <new0> Fuchs, sure.. how to?
[12:42] <Fuchs> install: like any other program/service. So on the machine you'd run quassel core you run znc  (the machine should be up 24/7 for best results), and then on your other machines instead of connecting to freenode you connect to that znc
[12:42] <Fuchs> http://wiki.znc.in/ZNC    << there.
[12:43] <qweasdzxc> root3: hello
[12:43] <new0> Fuchs, so i do got to install this quassel.. thing?
[12:43] <Fuchs> new0: only if you want to. I'd recommend not, if you are happy with xchat
[12:43] <root3> qweasdzxc: who are you?
[12:43] <Fuchs> new0: just install znc on a machine that runs, connect that znc to freenode for you, then use xchat (or whatever client you like) to connect to that znc
[12:43] <qweasdzxc> root3: you helped me earlier
[12:43] <Fuchs> you can then connect from as many clients as you like, and all of them will be the same nick/user on freenode
[12:45] <new0> Fuchs, so this znc got to run on online server not my computer, right? can i just run a program in my computer and run the clients from that one?
[12:45] <Fuchs> new0: you can also run znc on your computer if you want to
[12:45] <new0> Fuchs, *run the clients on that one
[12:45] <new0> Fuchs, ok. first step is to install quassel?
[12:45] <Fuchs> new0: you can run the client and znc even on the same computer. Usually people running znc are running that on a server, so it runs 24/7
[12:46] <Fuchs> new0: no, you don't need quassel. Unless you want to use quassel. Which you might not want to
[12:46] <new0> Fuchs, not need 24/7. just for the time been
[12:46] <Fuchs> new0: quassel has a similar concept: it is two components: one core part, that can run anywhere, and one or more clients that connect to that core
[12:46] <Fuchs> new0: znc does the same as quassel core, with the difference that the clients connecting can be anything  (e.g. xchat), while with quassel core you have to use the quassel client
[12:47] <Fuchs> so if you like xchat and want to keep using it, I'd recommend using znc instead of quassel core
[12:47] <new0> Fuchs, with quassel i have to be only with quassel not xchat. right? and znc any clients?
[12:47] <Fuchs> the concept is the same, though. You run  either quassel core or znc on one computer, and then connect from clients on the same / other computers as you desire.
[12:47] <Fuchs> new0: correct.
[12:48] <fathy> i`m  hhere
[12:48] <new0> Fuchs, right :) tnx so much. i will (try) to use znc
[12:48] <Fuchs> or you realize that both are a bit of an overkill for you, and you just connect with two separate xchat instances when needed. Then they have different nicks, though.
[12:48] <basichash> Do I install GRUB to /sda or /sda1?
[12:48] <Fuchs> You're welcome.
[12:48] <fathy> thnxxx \
[12:48] <Fuchs> basichash: mixed.  The bootloader itself needs to be in the MBR of the disk, hence sda, but its files need to be on /boot, whatever partition that is on
[12:49] <Fuchs> (e.g. sda1, if that contains /boot)
[12:49] <new0> Fuchs, r u here for the next 20m or so.  if i need some guideness on that?
[12:49] <philinux> basichash;~ any other os on the machine?
[12:49] <Fuchs> new0: I am afraid I'm not, no. I need to go to town before the post office closes
[12:50] <Fuchs> new0: there is the #znc  channel on this network though
[12:50] <basichash> nope, just reformatted my ntfs partitions to an ext4 partition, and the installer is asking me to install GRUB to either /dev/sda or /dev/sda1
[12:50] <new0> Fuchs, oh, well good luck and tnx :)
[12:50] <Fuchs> new0: you can  /join #znc     and ask there if you are stuck, but the wiki I linked earlier  is a good resource and should answer most questions
[12:50] <junka> ZOMG
[12:50] <junka> ZOMBIES
[12:50] <philinux> basichash;~ then go for /dev/sda
[12:50] <basichash> cheers
[12:51] <new0> Fuchs, right. tnx again ;)

[13:00] <Sven_vB> NetworkManager won't connect my cable network ("last connection: never") although eth2 shows as "up" and having an IPv4 addr in ifconfig. what did i miss?
[13:01] <Sven_vB> running ubuntu precise
[13:02] <new0> i am sure a lot of u know how to work with ssh. now how can i display a program with ssh on the ssh?
[13:02] <new0> i would like to see xchat on the ssh window
[13:03] <yalex> hello, what would you suggest for a remote home directory on a server that could be used for a laptop when its remote?
[13:03] <ntg-work> is there any easy way to make the function keys (brightness up, down, keyboard backlight etc) work in openbox on ubuntu? in unity they work fine.
[13:03] <gry_> new0: use ssh -X. mind that when ssh session closes then it will also not run xchat at the server anymore.
[13:03] <Sven_vB> new0, SSH usually doesn't have a window but is connected to a terminal. you could try X forwarding to run XChat remotely in its own window. however, it might be more performant to run XChat locally and only connect to the IRC server via ssh.
[13:04] <gry_> Sven_vB, "connect to the irc server via ssh"? are you crazy?
[13:04] <Sven_vB> gry_, i'm using that approach to send this message.
[13:04] <new0> gry_, not sure what u mean about the server
[13:05] <gry_> Sven_vB: sorry, I don't know how to connect to an irc server via ssh ...
[13:05] <new0> Sven_vB, may u expalin?
[13:05] <gry_> new0: the box sshd is on
[13:05] <gry_> new0: quassel is a much much easier way to do all this without wasting time ;)
[13:06] <new0> gry_, alright. got ya. i will just continue with ZNC sound better as i know xchat
[13:06] <gry_> ameh
[13:07] <ntg-work> is there any easy way to make the function keys (brightness up, down, keyboard backlight etc) work in openbox on ubuntu? in unity they work fine.

[13:07] <gry_> and not be able to browse old messages other than plain tex
[13:07] <gry_> t
[13:07] <gry_> quassel has infinite scrollback all way up
[13:18] <ntg-work> does anyone know where the config file for unity keybinding is located?
[13:18] <ntg-work> i need to see what commands certain keys execute
[13:20] <OerHeks> ntg-work, open 'keyboards' and select next tab, to view commands
[13:21] <ryno> anyone have any problems with the Atheros AR9285 wireless card under Ubuntu 14.04?
[13:21] <ntg-work> OerHeks: will it show commands for functions keys as well ?
[13:22] <ryno> Mine kept intermittently losing connection and then I turned it off and on and it seems fine but I'd like to know if there's anything I can do now to prevent further issues
[13:22] <OerHeks> ntg-work, so you didn'tlook?
[13:23] <ntg-work> OerHeks: I'd have to relog, hence why I'm asking

[13:48] <new0> i just tried those shortcuts (Ctrl + Shirt + Alt + arrow key) but doen't work. also Ctrl + Alt + arrow key
[13:48] <new0> what i have missing?
[13:49] <OerHeks> mojtaba, did you restart vsftpd?
[13:49] <OerHeks> or logout/login again?
[13:50] <mojtaba> OerHeks: yes

[13:51] <nihao> help
[13:52] <new0> Pessimist, kroson, MonkeyDust, from some reason it doesn't work. may i missing something? or diactived the shortcuts? ( not sure because i can open the terminal)
[13:52] <MonkeyDust> nihao  start with a question
[13:52] <new0> i am trying Switch windows of an app directlty
[13:52] <mojtaba> OerHeks: could you please check this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7386731/
[13:52] <nihao> thanks
[13:53] <mojtaba> OerHeks: should I change anything?
[13:54] <MonkeyDust> new0  what's not working?
[13:54] <mojtaba> OerHeks: I have also made this file: /etc/vsftp.chroot_list, and put my username in it. (ubuntu's username)
[13:54] <new0> MonkeyDust, the shortcuts
[13:55] <MonkeyDust> new0  what shortcuts? what are they supposed to do?
[13:55] <Pessimist> new0, if you want to switch windows of a application you're on you are supposed to use alt+`
[13:56] <Jay__> !13.10
[13:57] <new0> Pessimist, nice :) didn't know that. but this is helpful. but what i want to do is. to move a window from 1 screen to other screen. (like Super + Shirt + right/left arrow on Win7)
[13:58] <Pessimist> new0, try: ctrl + alt + shift + arrow
[13:58] <new0> Pessimist, not working
[13:59] <new0> Pessimist, i also found it in the shortcut (keyboard setting) but doesn't work for me
[14:00] <MonkeyDust> new0  then maybe what you want, cannot be done
[14:00] <Pessimist> new0, shift + super + left/right ?
[14:00] <new0> MonkeyDust, the Q is why? because i am using Unity and not Gnome? or some other resson?
[14:01] <new0> Pessimist, in Win7 yes
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> new0  because windows != linux
[14:01] <xangua> new0: I can use ctrl+shift+alt to move windows between virtual desktops fine
[14:01] <Pessimist> new0, I have this keyboard shortcut in gnome 3 and iirc unity has the same shortcuts
[14:02] <new0> Pessimist, it's will move the window of an app from one screen to the other screen. but i am looking for the ubuntu shortcut (just want to give u an example for those of u who know this)
[14:02] <MonkeyDust> new0  yes, here too, ctrl-shift-alt arrow does the trick (never used or needed it, but nice to know)
[14:03] <new0> MonkeyDust, tnx :) anyway, also the workspace i know (haven't used yet) Ctrl + Alt + arrow key doen't work for me
[14:03] <new0> MonkeyDust, maybe some of them are disabled some how?

[14:43] <Roland-> question can I use ext4 for an 30 TB array ?
[14:44] <module000> Roland-: yes

[14:50] <IotaSpencer> anyone had a problem after pulseaudio and jack are installed together? then they start buzzing
[14:50] <IotaSpencer> like when I want to use skype, it starts buzzing
[14:50] <crzeechkn> I received a computer from someone, which has two hard drives and a raid array setup for them. I'm installing ubuntu, I see /dev/mapper/isw_bacfdhjahsh_RAID_ARRAY (232.88 GiB), /dev/sda (232.88 GiB), and /dev/sdb (232.88 GiB) in GParted. Any way to remove the raid system so that I have two separate hard drives?
[14:51] <themhz> I have set the permissions to some files and folders in /var/www/somewebsite to 644 and for folders 755. But when I open a file from netbeans I can't edit it. Why is that happening? Physically I am the owner of those files and folders under that directory, why can't I edit them?
[14:51] <themhz> If I change permissions to 777 I can edit them normally.
[14:52] <themhz> aint my user in the admin groups on my computer?
[14:52] <MonkeyDust> themhz  there's also #ubuntu-server
[14:52] <compdoc> kroson, it doesnt look like you can change the icon size. There might be some package you can install that can, but I dont know

[14:52] <EmsY> hey guys

[14:53] <kroson> compdoc: are you sure? Sorry but I can't test MATE right now
[14:53] <IotaSpencer> because its pulse and jack fighting
[14:53] <kingplusplus> How do i get around the problem of switching user in Xubuntu? When i switch from user A to B it works but getting back to A from B i see a black screen which means I have to restart because nothing else works. Please someone should give me advise on how to solve this.
[14:53] <compdoc> kroson, where would I look?
[14:53] <dreamon> IotaSpencer, I had 12.04 -> update to 14.04 pulseaudio a endless noise
[14:53] <SCHAAP137> let jack connect so the pulseaudio sink
[14:53] <SCHAAP137> and make pulse default
[14:53] <IotaSpencer> SCHAAP137: how
[14:54] <SCHAAP137> then jack becomes like a kind of ASIO control panel
[14:54] <SCHAAP137> it's awesome
[14:54] <kroson> compdoc: right click on an Icon on the desktop, properties or something
[14:54] <SCHAAP137> i think my setup was like this IotaSpencer
[14:55] <SCHAAP137> i had alsa as the system sound device, then i have pulse routing everything from the sink towards ALSA
[14:55] <SCHAAP137> then i had jack routing everything to the pulseaudio sink
[14:55] <IotaSpencer> yes and I don't know how to set that up
[14:55] <SCHAAP137> and apps like supercollider and ardour etc all to jack
[14:56] <compdoc> kroson, it lets me resize icons one at a time. that would be a pain.
[14:56] <SCHAAP137> change the jack config IotaSpencer
[14:56] <kroson> compdoc: that would be the idea for me xD
[14:56] <SCHAAP137> /etc/jackd.conf or someththing?
[14:56] <SCHAAP137> not sure, i'm on windows atm

[15:07] <n-st> hi, i upgraded my laptop from 12.04.4 to 14.04 today and "screwed up" doesn't even begin to describe its current state. i'm trying to downgrade all packages to the versions available for 12.04 according to these instructions (http://askubuntu.com/a/3675/), but apt wants to remove quite a lot of stuff that worked on 12.04 (e.g. snmpd and vlc). how can i find out which unmet depencies causes that?
[15:07] <IotaSpencer> n-st: its easier to just downgrade with a usb
[15:07] <n-st> s/depencies/dependencies/
[15:08] <n-st> IotaSpencer: you mean booting from a live cd/usb and selecting the installer's upgrade option?
[15:08] <n-st> wasn't there a rather nasty bug with that?
[15:08] <IotaSpencer> I'm talking about a full install, no upgrades and shit
[15:09] <IotaSpencer> tar your files 'Erase everything and reinstall'
[15:09] <n-st> reinstalling and -configuring the system would take several days at best
[15:09] <IotaSpencer> on ubuntu?
[15:09] <n-st> (i only made backups of /etc, /usr/local and /home)
[15:09] <IotaSpencer> that's a big lie
[15:09] <abdu> when i change windows 8 to ubuntu  then my after that my data  was loss using  usb.what i do?
[15:10] <IotaSpencer> abdu: #ubuntu-in or bust
[15:11] <IotaSpencer> n-st: make backups of your configs then you don't have to reconfigure :p
[15:11] <n-st> IotaSpencer: my system is half ubuntu and half convoluted mess of self-compiled stuff, so it _will_ take a while to restore the state i had a few hours ago :/
[15:12] <IotaSpencer> hm
[15:12] <n-st> i always wanted to make a list of what i changed, but i never got around to it :|
[15:13] <OerHeks> n-st, that post is an old and bad advise to downgrade. backup and reinstall is the only solution
[15:13] <n-st> at least i'm using etckeeper, so i could undo the config changes made by the release upgrade
[15:13] <MonkeyDust> n-st  that's called a "frankenbuntu"
[15:13] <OerHeks> MonkeyDust i luv that derrivate :-D
[15:13] <n-st> MonkeyDust: yeah, that's a suitable name :D
[15:14] <IotaSpencer> well, that I can't help with, and I'm still stuck with my problem of buzzing when trying to use skype after I install the default updates after a studio install
[15:15] <abdu> know i use ubuntu but i  wana be back up my all file
[15:16] <n-st> so, what about the dependency issue? what could make apt think that it can't keep snmpd, vlc and more than a hundred libraries, although it's using the same sources.list as before?
[15:17] <IotaSpencer> n-st: the libraries and such would've been updated for that specific version I suppose
[15:20] <n-st> IotaSpencer: but shouldn't that be reverted by a dist-upgrade to the old package sources?
[15:20] <ogra_> n-st, how did you upgrade in the first place ?
[15:20] <n-st> ogra_: do-release-upgrade -d
[15:21] <ogra_> and that didnt woork ?
[15:21] <coolbyte> hy all
[15:21] <ogra_> -o
[15:21] <IotaSpencer> your kernel and lsb are still the newer version
[15:21] <n-st> it died half way through
[15:21] <MonkeyDust> OerHeks  n-st yeah, it's a fun name :)
[15:21] <spaz-grenade> So I'm having an issue with dual monitors on ubuntu gnome 14.04... Whenever I log in, the monitors are swapped, so I have to move the cursor right to get to the monitor that is physically to the left. I swap it around in All Settings | Screen Display, and it's fine, but forgets it when I log out :/
[15:22] <mega1> how do i find the program the is sending out packets from my server 10.04
[15:22] <ogra_> n-st, you cant downgrade if the system core was already upgraded (libc and friends) there is simply no way ... try to get your 14.04 working or reinstall
[15:22] <n-st> so i booted a live cd, chrooted into the ubuntu installation and finished the upgrade (alternating between apt-get install -f and apt-get dist-upgrade until it didn't want to install/configure anything anymore)
[15:23] <coolbyte> when I can put a question re ubuntu 14.04 and USDB seagate HDD?
[15:24] <n-st> now i can at least boot and use it, but most of my settings (xmodmap, gnome keyboard shortcuts, multiple viewports, font hinting, and who knows what else) don't work anymore
[15:24] <IotaSpencer> mega1: spy on your traffic and see what the packets look like?
[15:24] <ogra_> well, it is very likely that the handling of these has changed anyway in 14.04
[15:24] <n-st> mega1: iftop
[15:24] <ogra_> you would have to adapt your manual modifications
[15:24] <n-st> ogra_: that's why i want to downgrade to 12.04 :|
[15:24] <ogra_> you cant
[15:25] <n-st> why not? i've got the old config, i just need the old binaries :/
[15:25] <IotaSpencer> n-st: the only way to downgrade is to install the older version of ubuntu fully
[15:25] <OerHeks> n-st, 3 people answered you cannot, how many answers do you need before you understand?
[15:26] <n-st> i don't care if my system becomes conscious or creatures crawl from the abyss, i just want my working system back! :(
[15:26] <spaz-grenade> is there a gnome distro channel I should be asking that question in instead?
[15:26] <ogra_> how would haveing an old config help ? if the new binary doesnt use the same options anymore
[15:26] <junka> #ubuntu-gnome spaz-grenade also #gnome
[15:26] <spaz-grenade> coolbeans
[15:27] <n-st> ogra_: the new binaries obviously don't, that's why it's such an usable mess right now. i haven't lost hope yet that the old binaries might get my a working mess until i can set it up properly
[15:27] <ogra_> you surely dont want to use any of your old /etc ... and for configs you have had in /home you will have to make sure they work with the new versions
[15:27] <lawnewbie> hi
[15:27] <lawnewbie> i have a question
[15:28] <lawnewbie> i want to change my OS (again)
[15:28] <Pessimist> !ask | lawnewbie
[15:28] <ogra_> you cant go back to the old binaries ... as i said, there is no way
[15:28] <lawnewbie> but i want to save the setting of my ubuntu, how to make it?
[15:28] <OerHeks> n-st, it is not just the binairys, also dependencies will give problems.
[15:28] <Blinkiz> Hello. I installed Ubuntu 14.04 server and having it as a hypervisor (kvm+libvirt) for my virtual machines. Am having problem that my bridge, br0, only forwards IPv6 traffic when I set br0 into promiscuous mode, why?
[15:29] <Pessimist> lawnewbie, save ~/
[15:29] <ogra_> the new binaries are linked against new library versions ... you cant go backwards with your libraries ... unless you do a reinstall of 12.04
[15:29] <OerHeks> lawnewbie, save settings as in backing up ?
[15:29] <n-st> OerHeks: "no" is the answer for sane people, not for me ;)
[15:29] <lawnewbie> Pessimist, so if i want to change into ubuntu again, my setting still same?
[15:29] <n-st> ogra_: what prevents me from installing the old libraries?
[15:29] <whj> 我安装的是ubuntu14.04
[15:29] <OerHeks> n-st, good luck finding a solution
[15:30] <n-st> (well, apt obviously, but i mean the actual reason)
[15:30] <ogra_> n-st, package dependencies, library symbols etc ...
[15:30] <OerHeks> !cn|whj
[15:30] <mega1> iftop was installed so installed it
[15:30] <Pessimist> lawnewbie, you need to also save a list of what packages/software is installed at the moment. You probably don't need the whole ~/, just selected dot config files
[15:30] <ogra_> you can try, but you will most likely end up with a competely broken (worst case even unbootable) system
[15:30] <SCHAAP137> Blinkiz, is IPv6 forwarding enabled in sysctl?
[15:30] <jhutchins> n-st: It's not practical to downgrade.   The system isn't designed for it.
[15:31] <lawnewbie> absolutely im newbie, so what should i do?
[15:31] <jhutchins> n-st: The package scripts are only intended to move forward.
[15:31] <junka> !eol13.10
[15:31] <mega1> now it says pcap_open_live(eth5): socket: operation not permitted
[15:31] <ogra_> stay on 14.04, adapt your configs ... or reinstall 12.04 and use an older backup to put your modifications back in place
[15:31] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: You could do an image backup.
[15:31] <ogra_> there is no sane option inbetween these two
[15:32] <basichash> I can't change the python alias to python3, added it to end of .bashrc, still using py 2.7
[15:32] <SCHAAP137> Blinkiz: http://puu.sh/8xtMk.png
[15:32] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, backup of my OS ??
[15:32] <n-st> jhutchins: i know there isn't a ready-made solution because there usually isn't a need for it, but i just can't believe that it wouldn't even be possible to do it manually
[15:32] <ogra_> no
[15:32] <SCHAAP137> Blinkiz: in /etc/sysctl.conf
[15:32] <ogra_> there isnt *a solution*
[15:32] <ogra_> not just no ready made one
[15:33] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: Yeah, an image backup of the whole disk would be easy to restore.
[15:33] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, so how to backup it? >.<
[15:33] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: What are you planing to switch to?
[15:33] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: clonezilla is good for that kind of thing.
[15:33] <OerHeks> junka, 13.10 support will end in July 2014
[15:33] <coolbyte> hi all I bought an HDD Seagate 500GB and my ubuntu 14.04 can't see it. I connected to windows vista and the hdd it's ok. Now I format the hdd with NTFS in Windows. it will work?
[15:34] <Anom01y> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwHb_2KrRfg
[15:34] <OerHeks> coolbyte, i guess so, formatting in windows can work
[15:34] <MonkeyDust> coolbyte  an external usb HDD?
[15:35] <jhutchins> coolbyte: Need to figure out why Ubuntu "can't see it".  Need to look at dmesg, and fdisk or parted.
[15:35] <junka> thanks OerHeks
[15:35] <coolbyte> yes
[15:35] <holstein> coolbyte: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[15:35] <lawnewbie> Jhutchins, i want to change my OS to backtract, so i want to backup my os. what should i do? >.<
[15:35] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: Backtrack can be run from disk.
[15:35] <holstein> lawnewbie: copy what files you want to keep, and follow installation from BT
[15:36] <MonkeyDust> lawnewbie  backtrack has changed it's name
[15:36] <coolbyte> MonkeyDust yes, jhutchins when i type lsusb it dose-t apear
[15:36] <MonkeyDust> coolbyte  ans lsblk?
[15:36] <MonkeyDust> coolbyte  and lsblk?
[15:36] <lawnewbie> change into? :o
[15:36] <mega1> iftop does not tell me what program is sending out packets
[15:36] <junka> lawnewbie, www.kali.org
[15:36] <prodigal> #xubuntu
[15:37] <crzeechkn> I received a computer from someone, which has two hard drives and a raid array setup for them. I'm installing ubuntu, I see /dev/mapper/isw_bacfdhjahsh_RAID_ARRAY (232.88 GiB), /dev/sda (232.88 GiB), and /dev/sdb (232.88 GiB) in GParted. Any way to remove the raid system so that I have two separate hard drives?
[15:37] <lawnewbie> backtract change the name into Kali?
[15:37] <junka> backtrack is no longer supported
[15:37] <junka> Kali is the new backtrack
[15:37] <lawnewbie> maybe i change into kali?? :3
[15:37] <coolbyte> ok guys I will try tks for your time have a great day.
[15:37] <junka> yes it's wise
[15:38] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: Or you could just do multi-boot and have both installed.
[15:38] <prodigal> Has anyone noticed that the Trusty Pan Newsreader repository in 14.04 does not provide a way to connect via SSL?  Any workarounds/fixes?
[15:39] <lawnewbie> i dont want to multi-boot, i think my laptop cant dont that. that so over
[15:39] <junka> wat
[15:39] <xangua> lawnewbie: and is neither based on ubuntu...and yet you claim to be a 'newbie' and want to install a penetration testing software, what exactly is what you want?
[15:40] <holstein> prodigal: you mean, a package in the default repository? or a PPA?
[15:40] <prodigal> default repository ... there is no working ppa for trusty that I can find.
[15:40] <jhutchins> prodigal: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2134287
[15:41] <holstein> prodigal: i would probably just file a bug, and try and see who is maintaining the packages.. or in this case, potentially not maintaining.. and offer to help
[15:41] <lawnewbie> xangua, hmm, i just want to be careful, maybe next time i want to change my OS. so i want to save the backup of my OS (Ubuntu)
[15:42] <holstein> lawnewbie: you can clone easily with clonezilla... and have operating system image backups
[15:42] <lawnewbie> holstein, thanks for your suggestion :))
[15:43] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: Yes, your laptop can multi-boot just fine.
[15:43] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: You can use the clonezilla disk to make an image backup of your Ubuntu installation, then install kali if you want to do it that way.
[15:43] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, i think my laptop is so over if i do multi-boot
[15:44] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, oke i'll do ur suggestion
[15:44] <xangua> lawnewbie: you can also make a separate parititon for /home so you can keep your settings easily and even install and try direfent distributions
[15:44] <prodigal> jhutchins: thx for the info on version 1.36 ... will look into it.  Previous versions had the option in server setup, but the "139.2" version from the repository does not have the option.
[15:44] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: No, multiboot is not a problem.  I've had up to five different installations on a 166MHz P3.
[15:45] <prodigal> holstein:  will do that.  thx
[15:45] <lawnewbie> xangua, its so complicated to my as newbie >.<
[15:45] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, so u have 5 different OS on your laptop?
[15:45] <jhutchins> profligacy: There are also ways to use stunnel.  Google "pan ssl" for more info.
[15:45] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: No, the P3 166 was ca. 2001.
[15:46] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, what;s P3 166?
[15:46] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: Pentium III, 166 MHz.  Very old hardware.
[15:47] <xangua> lawnewbie: is not that complicated, you can do it right from the ubuntu installer and lots of guides and videos even on youtube
[15:47] <lawnewbie> jhutchins, ohh your processor >.<
[15:47] <lawnewbie> xangue, maybe i need to try .-.
[15:47] <junka> jhutchins, what DE did u had
[15:48] <jhutchins> lawnewbie: Probably a 40G Hard Drive.
[15:48] <jhutchins> junka: KDE.
[15:48] <dyu> how do i mount ecryptfs as read and write?
[15:48] <junka> omg in P3?
[15:48] <Munster> damn small  linux anyone ? :)
[15:49] <nappy> can anyone teach me how to get download manager on ubuntu
[15:49] <holstein> Munster: this is the official ubuntu support channel.. they may provide their own support channel
[15:49] <jhutchins> junka: Yeah, I've been using KDE pretty much since I started using a GUI on linux.
[15:50] <jhutchins> junka: 3.5 was a lot tigher than 4.x.
[15:50] <Munster> holstein, it was a joke holstein
[15:50] <jhutchins> junka: When they went to 4.x I went to xfce.
[15:50] <holstein> Munster: ok.. use the #ubuntu-offtopic channel for those.. thanks
[15:50] <OerHeks> nappy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DownloadManager
[15:51] <cactuswizard> what to do, all internet connections disappear after coming back from standby... yesterday afternoon everything was fine...
[15:51] <lawnewbie> Jhutchins and Xangua, please reply my chat >.<
[15:52] <holstein> cactuswizard: from suspend to ram? i have had to add some custom reload commands i have found online in forums for some gear in the past
[15:52] <junka> jhattara, xfce makes more sense
[15:52] <xangua> lawnewbie: I don't see any mention and if you mean a private chat I don't get those ;)
[15:52] <lawnewbie> Xangua, u have any contact? line maybe?
[15:52] <innocent95> Good morning
[15:53] <innocent95> is there a #ubuntu-beginners channel ?
[15:53] <Pessimist> innocent95, there are a ton of beginners here
[15:53] <Munster> innocent95, just watch out for the trolls
[15:54] <innocent95> :)
[15:54] <Krenair> Somehow I broke my laptop during updating to 14.04
[15:54] <innocent95> I heard that there were a channel for the beginners
[15:55] <Munster> innocent95, just ask your question
[15:55] <jhutchins> innocent95: If you have an Ubuntu suppport question you can ask it here.
[15:55] <innocent95> That's my question :)
[15:56] <Munster> innocent95, afaik this is it
[15:56] <innocent95> Okay
[15:56] <Krenair> For some reason it's started showing the console startup log thing
[15:56] <lawnewbie> Xangua, are u still online?
[15:57] <cactuswizard> holstein, well yea dunno...
[15:57] <Krenair> But it freezes after apache starts loading
[15:57] <innocent95> What's the best way to be a linux or Ubuntu Guru :) ?
[15:57] <innocent95> geek
[15:57] <Yelu> innocent95, reading ...
[15:58] <holstein> cactuswizard: i dont follow your last post
[15:58] <Munster> years of practice
[15:58] <yanux> halllo
[15:58] <yanux> bye~
[15:58]  * innocent95 Want to be an Ubuntu guru :( .
[15:58] <MonkeyDust> innocent95  trial and error
[15:58] <innocent95> I'm just using it as all people do, I'm not getting errors.
[15:58] <cactuswizard> holstein, don't know about the RAM suspension, could be possible though
[15:59] <jhutchins> innocent95 The Linux System Administrator's Guide is an excellent general resource: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/index.html
[15:59] <MonkeyDust> !manual | innocent95 start here
[15:59] <holstein> cactuswizard: confirm.. you are either suspending to ram or disk.. or rebooting.. and you are saying "after standby", so im assuming thats a suspend of some kind.. to ram
[15:59] <innocent95> I was trying to get a Comptia Linux + Certification
[16:00] <cactuswizard> holstein, oh yeah :D sorry
[16:00] <cactuswizard> holstein, meant suspend
[16:01] <holstein> cactuswizard: so, i have searched, in the past, for commands for specific hardware... to reload after resume
[16:02] <innocent95> jhutchins, Comptia Linux + ?
[16:02] <cactuswizard> holstein, okay
[16:03] <jhutchins> innocent95: Experience.
[16:03] <Krenair> Trying to load my system in recovery mode
[16:03] <Krenair> For some reason it gets stuck after loading sendmail
[16:03] <innocent95> jhutchins, I mean what about it ?
[16:03] <jhutchins> innocent95: When it comes to certification, RedHat is probably the most marketable.
[16:04] <jhutchins> innocent95: That or solaris.
[16:04] <gry> it's interesting that the debian-based stuff isn't that marketable I guess
[16:04] <innocent95> But they are all having the same topics i guess
[16:04] <gry> I mean, I don't know why even
[16:05] <cactuswizard> holstein, haha dumb me, should have searched from askubuntu first
[16:05] <innocent95> including Comptia Linux +
[16:05]  * amireldor am I "nuts"?
[16:05] <innocent95> jhutchins, Solaris, Unix ?
[16:05] <jhutchins> gry: The main reason is that if someone is relying on certification to hire, they're more likely to know/use RedHat.
[16:06] <amireldor> ok thx got my answer u guys are awesome
[16:06] <jhutchins> innocent95: Sun Solaris is a version of Unix.
[16:06] <innocent95> Okay
[16:07] <gry> jhutchins: exactly the kind of thing I don't understand -- why would they be more likely to etc etc (for servers I've seen debian all over, but I never worked professionally. Are they doing desktop things?)
[16:08] <innocent95> 18*12 page to be printed
[16:11] <veryhappy> Hey guys, can it be that a bios update destroys the possibility to install/boot from GRUB?
[16:11] <jhutchins> veryhappy: Not likely.
[16:12] <veryhappy> ok
[16:13] <viper474> veryhappy, what do you mean by install from GRUB?
[16:13] <veryhappy> i thought, because i made a bios update last time for my netbook and now i don't know why i can't install grub anymore, probably i need EFI but i don't know anything about it, might be i'll have to install that
[16:14] <holstein> veryhappy: you can contact the manufacterer, or poke around in the bios for secure boot or options that are blocking what you are trying to do..
[16:15] <veryhappy> well in the bios there's not any option like it
[16:16] <holstein> veryhappy: then, maybe the bios is not blocking anything..
[16:16] <viper474> veryhappy, what's the make and model bro?
[16:16] <veryhappy> yea, might be i'll just have to figure out how to use EFI
[16:17] <veryhappy> thank you

[16:43] <ysh> FreewheellinFrank: or just go to software center and install ubuntu-restricted-extras
yes and i trust it will work
[16:44] <mmazing2> finally got uefi to boot ubuntu on this new laptop, but it can't detect any windows install to "install alongside"
i search in software center and only shit apps show up
[16:45] <mjmdavis> how can I run a script every time I login on 14.04?
[16:45] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: so, you have referenced it, and just not installed the suggested packages yet? if not, please install what is necessary to facilitate playing the DVD content which is restricted from being included in ubuntu
installed
[16:46] <mega1> every time i turn my ubuntu server on the network seems to get flood and slows everyone down
[16:46] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: you need to run both commands..
[16:46] <wget> Hi guys. I've reported a bug impacting directly Ubuntu since the Dell XPS 13 has a version with Ubuntu in it. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75381
[16:46] <wget> If someone can confirm that bug or even pull it up in the "to be solved rapidly" bug list.
[16:47] <ysh> mjmdavis: System > Preferences > Startup Applications
installed both. tried VLC, it says vlc could not open the disc /dev/dvd
[16:48] <mjmdavis> ysh, can't I get bash_login to run?
[16:48] <wget> Btw, do you know if the linux kernel has an official irc channel? I've just found a mailing list.
[16:48] <ysh> FreewheelinFrank: did you restart ?
[16:48] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: please open a terminal.. and run.. "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libdvdread4
vlc is unable to open the MRL 'DVD:///DEV/DVD
[16:48] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: let the volunteers here know when that is completed without error..
[16:49] <ysh> mjmdavis: bash_login is for terminal login startup
[16:49] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: completed?
[16:50] <ysh> mjmdavis: and to be precise its .bash_login in ~
GONNA REBOOT
[16:50] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: why? please follow the steps.. is that completed?
yes tho VLC is frozen so i am shutting some things down brb
[16:50] <mjmdavis> ysh, is that menu path even possible on 14.04?
[16:51] <gry> http://www.lcvdata.kinghost.net/captured_2014_05_03.jpg after updating firefox to firefox 29, known issue or not? 2 people have it, linux specific, i can't reproduce because i'm not using gnome
[16:51] <ysh> oh damn, just type starup in dash
[16:52] <ysh> mjmdavis: my bad i forgot about unity, coz i m kinda using classic desktop
[16:52] <mjmdavis> ysh, np
[16:52]  * wget is leaving this too mainstream channel. If you have an answer for the questions I asked above. Please answer to them on the #ubuntu-kernel channel. Thanks. And Bye!
[16:52] <mjmdavis> I guess the way this works is going to depend on your desktop environment?
lost control. first time for a while. except this for some reason
[16:53] <mega1> how do i find out what is using up the traffic on my server
i have system monitor running and operating but i cannot select anything. mouse pointer looks like a little hand
make sure you download everything
[16:54] <mib_mib> hi all  i set the hostname of my machine with ' sudo hostname blah-1' --- how do i find the FQDN? when i do `sudo dnsdomainname` i get back sudo: unable to resolve host blah-1 dnsdomainname: Name or service not known
[16:55] <holstein> FreewheelinFrank: not sure what you are referencing, but, try getting to tty and sudo reboot
[16:55] <tweztf> hi
kidding about the downloading. ok will try thanks see you on the other side.
[16:58] <tweztf> so i just tried installing an encrypted ubuntu via the standard installer, but during boot nothing happens ( i only get a _ )  is it possible that for some reason the bootloader isnt loading?   (my system has two hdds, ubuntu on sdb and nothing on sda)
[16:58] <mjmdavis> ysh, do you know which environment startup apps executes in?
[17:02] <mjmdavis> ysh, putting /usr/bin/env > /home/mjmdavis/stupEnv in there didn't quite do what I hoped
[17:03] <mega1> what can tell me what is taking up the bandwith
[17:04] <mjmdavis> mega1, nethogs might be an option
[17:05] <Erika18>  You can find funny videos here. http://bitly.com/1gAh6Jy
[17:05] <mega1> its something running on my server that is doing it
[17:05] <aarobc> So trying to do an update, but then getting an orror about third party repositories. How do I disable the third party repositories?

[17:07] <Sceptic> Hello. Watching Flash content is quite laggy, i.e. from http://medieval-combat.org/ . How can I improve this?
[17:08] <innocent95> Sceptic, What Browser are you using ?
[17:08] <Sceptic> innocent95, It's laggy both in Firefox and Chromium.
[17:08] <cactuswizard> Sceptic: try Opera?
[17:10] <mjmdavis> mega1, if you login to the server and run nethogs it will give you an idea of which process is using the bandwidth
[17:10] <Sceptic> cactuswizard, OK
[17:13] <mega1> i seem to have something running /etc/sfewfests does any know what that is
[17:15] <fabrizziop> hey guys, I've been trying to fix this for several days, but I tried to install fglrx on 14.04 LTS by downloading the binary from the amd page and using --buildpkg, but when I must install the built packages with dpkg it says "fglrx depends on libc6-amd64 (>= 2.9). ", although I already have that package installed. What can I do?
[17:15] <fabrizziop> I already reinstalled a bunch of packages, used apt-get clean, etc
[17:15] <holstein> fabrizziop: try the in repo one first
[17:15] <fabrizziop> the in repo one does work fine
[17:16] <holstein> fabrizziop: then, just use it
[17:16] <fabrizziop> hmmmmm, that's a nice idea
[17:16] <kroson> fabrizziop: weird man, I did the exact same thing on mine and got no errors. Did you create packages for trusty?
[17:16] <fabrizziop> although it's weird because I did the same process on other pc with trusty and it worked fine
[17:16] <fabrizziop> yeah, --buildpkg Ubuntu/trusty
[17:19] <stemid> is it still possible to dd the ubuntu 14.04 gnome desktop iso to a usb drive? because I just tried and it would not boot. this is the same iso that I've installed on another desktop so it does work and sha1sum matches.
[17:21] <Sceptic> cactuswizard, If under Opera, Flash will be still laggy, then what should I do?
[17:21] <kello> hy guys i have a problem and i am a noob

[17:30] <WLM|druk> *I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on macbook 5.1. Everything was okay, but yesterday I changed something in the configuration, maybe from the videocard, and now, after login, my screen goes blank so I can login only as guest.

[17:33] <MItchell> Hi, not sure if i have come to the right place but am looking for help with installing ubuntu on my windows 8.1 hp laptop
[17:33] <lawnewbie> hey, why my flash can't upgrade?
[17:33] <WLM|druk> MItchell: hi
[17:34] <WLM|druk> I just did it.
[17:34] <Sceptic> johnjohn101, TU
[17:34] <WLM|druk> (On Windows 7, but it's pretty much the same)
[17:34] <lawnewbie> Mitchell: you in right place :))
[17:34] <WLM|druk> First of all, Mitchell: have you got a cd or a usb drive?
[17:34] <holstein> lawnewbie: adobe doesnt provide you a version https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
[17:34] <wiak> mlch try instsll in uefi mode
[17:34] <WLM|druk> Because you need it for the installation
[17:34] <kello> Software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name':  ':1.98'}): org.debian.apt.install-file
[17:35] <MItchell> I have tried creating a live usb, but my laptop will not boot to it?
[17:35] <wiak> disale secure boot in bios
[17:35] <WLM|druk> You have to press a key to change the boot order
[17:35] <WLM|druk> On my HP Windows 7 laptop, it was F9.
[17:35] <MItchell> i cannot access BIOS because of a password, and the escape key on my laptop is broken
[17:36] <holstein> MItchell: you will need to address that issue.. can you boot cd?
[17:36] <SchrodingersScat> MItchell: is there a boot order key?
[17:36] <lawnewbie> holstein: i just can open 360 in youtube :(
[17:36] <MItchell> i dont know of a boot order key, how do i find that out
[17:36] <mmazing2> MItchell: try F12
[17:36] <WLM|druk> Well er...
[17:37] <WLM|druk> On my HP Windows 7 laptop the boot order key was F9
[17:37] <SchrodingersScat> MItchell: just asking, sometimes there is a key to access the BIOS settings then another key that prompts for the boot device, this may be a setting in your BIOS settings though, which you say is passworded, which is a bit of a roadblock
[17:37] <MItchell> when i press f12 it takes me to the bios screen but requires a password that i have no chance of getting. (Second hand laptop)
[17:37] <WLM|druk> Aaaaargh stupid shortcut keys
[17:37] <holstein> lawnewbie: as the link i provide states, the latest flash for linux is available to chrome only. and can me used with chrome or chromium
[17:37] <WLM|druk> What model do you have?
[17:37] <lawnewbie> WLM|druk: you only need to input your cd into cd rom, then restart ur laptop
[17:38] <lawnewbie> holstein: ohh i see , thanks :))
[17:38] <MItchell> is there any way of installing ubuntu over my windows install via an exe file or something?
[17:38] <WLM|druk> MItchell: no, because an OS can't run in another OS (unless you use a virtualbox)
[17:38] <holstein> MItchell: sure.. but the question is, is there any way for you to boot installation media? via CD?
[17:38] <mmazing2> MItchell: try F9, also, what model is your laptop?
[17:39] <kello> Software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name':  ':1.98'}): org.debian.apt.install-file
[17:39] <kibibyte> MItchell, just run livecd and click install
[17:39] <WLM|druk> What mmazing2 said
[17:39] <holstein> MItchell: you can plug a USB ps2 keyboard in and try escape.. otherwise, the bios is what is blocking you, not ubuntu
[17:39] <MItchell> what is live cd?
[17:39] <kibibyte> MItchell, cd with ubuntu
[17:39] <WLM|druk> That's the thing you burn with the iso file
[17:39] <mmazing2> MItchell : what is the make/model of the laptop
[17:39] <MItchell> i dHp 6730b
[17:39] <kibibyte> i you boot cd with ubuntu it will run
[17:39] <kibibyte> if*
[17:40] <MItchell> so i need to burn the iso to a blank cd and that will work?
[17:40] <mmazing2> kibibyte: he cannot get it to boot into live cd is the problem
[17:40] <kibibyte> why not
[17:40] <mmazing2> kibibyte: that's what we're trying to figure out :P
[17:40] <OerHeks> kibibyte, read back, password on bios
[17:41] <WLM|druk> MItchell: DuckDuckGo says the boot order key is F9 on that computer
[17:41] <lawnewbie> when i installed ubuntu on my laptop, i only do input the CD into cd rom, then i restart my laptop
[17:41] <WLM|druk> So just restart, immediately press F9, and boot from the disc or USB stick
[17:41] <lawnewbie> then my laptop do auto bootin
[17:41] <MItchell> so press f9 instead of f12 during boot?
[17:41] <WLM|druk> Yes
[17:41] <anshulk> Hi everyone!
[17:41] <gregor3005> hi, i have a problem with a lvm snapshot. i removed it with lvremove and i have now some lvm devices under /dev/mapper/ with name *cow* and *real*. whats the best way to remove this devices?
[17:42] <lawnewbie> hi anshulk
[17:42] <MItchell> ok will try this, but my bios have a password that stops me from accessing any of the bios menus
[17:42] <WLM|druk> I installed Ubuntu the day before yesterday using a live USB, and I pressed F9, chose my stick, and started.
[17:42] <anshulk> I installed MATE sometime back.
[17:42] <lawnewbie> good luck MItchell :)
[17:42] <WLM|druk> Mitchell: was that already on it when you bought your computer?
[17:42] <anshulk> It installed caja and other programs which are now conflicting with the default ones
[17:42] <MItchell> yes,
[17:42] <mmazing2> MItchell: you can reset the bios password by removing the power connector, removing the battery, removing the hard drive, and then removing the flat "watch" battery underneath the hard drive, wait 6 minutes and then it should be reset
[17:43] <OerHeks> mmazing2, no need to wait, just pressing the power button will do
[17:43] <WLM|druk> ^^ what mmazing2 says sounds a bit too complicated to be wrong
[17:43] <anshulk> Hi lawnewbie , mind helping ?
[17:43] <mmazing2> Mitchell pressed his power button apparently :<
[17:44] <OerHeks> sounds good yes
[17:44] <lawnewbie> what anshulk?
[17:44] <anshulk> Like I can't change my background except changing values in gsettings.
[17:45] <anshulk> and when I insert a pen drive, many windows open
[17:45] <anshulk> I guess some belong to nautilus and some to caja
[17:45] <anshulk> How can I disable caja ?
[17:45] <WLM|druk> anshulk: that could be the auto program opening when you insert a drive
[17:45] <lawnewbie> anshulk, you cant change your background ?
[17:45] <adultuser> hey room..looking for ubuntu touch support whats the name of the chan?
[17:46] <anshulk> lawnewbie, I can but only by changing mate.desktop.* value thorugh gsettings
[17:46] <cpined> urgent please help!!! I have an ASUS netbook pre installed with 12.04...I installed the updates....and now my wifi connects and disconnects...and the landline no longer works.
[17:46] <anshulk> lawnewbie, Its like my desktop is being managed by Mate
[17:46] <SchrodingersScat> !touch | adultuser
[17:46] <adultuser> thnx
[17:46] <anshulk> so I choose one in unity does nothing.
[17:47] <WLM|druk> adultuser: I found the #ubuntu-touch channel
[17:47] <Balzy> hello! I'm looking for that functionality of bash in ubuntu that tells you to which package a missing binary belongs, anyone can tell me?
[17:47] <lawnewbie> sorry anshulk, i cant help you :(
[17:47] <anshulk> lawnewbie, that's fine.
[17:48] <SchrodingersScat> !info apt-file | Balzy, maybe this?
[17:48] <lawnewbie> maybe u need to remove caja?
[17:48] <anshulk> WLM|druk, ya, but I'm getting several windows instead of one.
[17:48] <anshulk> lawnewbie, can't I just disable its auto-open setting ?
[17:49] <anshulk> background won't be solved by removing caja for sure.
[17:49] <lawnewbie> kill caja mungkin
[17:50] <lawnewbie> kill caja maybe
[17:50] <FoSi> hi all, i've just installed ubuntu 14.04 desktop and i was trying to use it under my mac using the built in vnc client with the desktop sharing enabled on ubuntu..but i'm having troubles! on mac side it goes: The software on the remote computer appears to be incompatible with this version of Screen Sharing.
[17:50] <cpined> when I ping my other PC on the network, I get "Network is unreacheable"
[17:50] <holstein> cpined: try pinging the gateway, and refer to the machine by IP
[17:51] <FoSi> anyone knows a vino version i can use that works?
[17:51] <LrdArc> hello, can I modify visudo to enable command "apt-get install" without using sudo for non-root user?
[17:51] <FoSi> or some setting i need to change?
[17:51] <Lingo> hi
[17:51] <SchrodingersScat> FoSi: if you're using vino, are you using vinegar on the other side?
[17:51] <Balzy> SchrodingersScat nope, did it happen to you to give a command, such as "host" and receive something like "binary not found, host belongs to dnsutils"?
[17:51] <Lingo> sorry which is the command to change name on irc? thank you
[17:52] <SchrodingersScat> Balzy: ah, hmm, I'm not sure what does that.
[17:52] <mmazing2> Lingo - "/nick"
[17:52] <SchrodingersScat> Lingo: /nick <name>
[17:52] <FoSi> SchrodingersScat: im using the built in osx mavericks screen sharing vnc client

[17:52] <cpined> I started my ASUS this morning and everything was great...able to reach internet...able to connect to wifi....one hour later I installed the suggested updates.  Now I cant connect to the wifi and the ethernet no longer works!
[17:52] <trism> Balzy: command-not-found
[17:52] <FoSi> it kind of works great with.. even with the newer rhel 7
[17:53] <Lemon3> may I please ask a question with linux mint?
[17:53] <Balzy> SchrodingersScat It's probably something inside bash, perhaps an extension
[17:53] <Balzy> trism is that the name of the package?
[17:53] <trism> !info command-not-found
[17:53] <SchrodingersScat> trism: thanks, Balzy ^^
[17:53] <Lemon3> I tried to install Linux mint on a external ssd drive (I am running a mbp).
[17:53] <Balzy> thanks SchrodingersScat and trism !
[17:53] <Lemon3> I used Mac Linux USB Loader to load the .iso to the ssd. all good.
[17:53] <Lemon3> i restarted the mbp and press the button to get into the selection
[17:54] <ntg-work> is there some easy way to run a command after resume from sleep/hibernate? something like rc.local
[17:54] <Lemon3> I select the linux mint one
[17:54] <Lemon3> then a black window shows up with some text,
[17:54] <Lemon3> i press 1 (to load the iso)
[17:54] <Lemon3> but then when it loads
[17:54] <holstein> !mint
[17:54] <Lemon3> all I get is a green screen
[17:54] <holstein> Lemon3: though, i would try..
[17:54] <holstein> !nomodeset
[17:54] <FoSi> ok.. ive just noticed there is a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/+bug/1307084
[17:55] <Lemon3> there's a green wallpaper that shows up. a shutdown button on the top right screen. and the cursor ..... but nothing else.... ??? any help please?. thank you
[17:55] <lawnewbie> its so complicated
[17:55] <ntg-work> is there some easy way to run a command after resume from sleep/hibernate? something like rc.local
[17:55] <lawnewbie> on my ubuntu software center, my flash was installed.
[17:56] <tapia> Hi. I'm trying to mount a Nexus4 in my ubuntu 14.04 box, but I can't. mtp-detect says "Unable to open ~/.mtpz-data for reading, MTPZ disabled.libmtp version: 1.1.6"
[17:56] <lawnewbie> but, if i want to open youtube it said you must install flash
[17:56] <tapia> I've seen something about plugging it in a usb3 port, but my computer don't have any
[17:56] <lawnewbie> fiuh . . . .
[17:56] <Lemon3> Question please:: I just downloaded ubuntu 14.04 , I want to install it on my ssd external hard drive. I then plug it into my mbp and I use it via boot selection..
[17:57] <Lemon3> which program should I use for ripping the iso the external hd?
[17:57] <Lemon3> ty
[17:58] <FoSi> Lemon3: dd should work but i don't know if i understood the question
[17:58] <lawnewbie> what u think is better? html5 or flash ?
[17:58] <Lemon3> ok thank you, sorry but what is dd?
[17:58] <SchrodingersScat> Lemon3: If you want to install it to the external ssd, then don't you really want to put the iso on a different device? so then when you boot off that device you can install it to the external ssd?
[17:59] <holstein> lawnewbie: "better" is a matter of opinion and use case.. html5 has "better" linux support, potentially
[17:59] <SchrodingersScat> !info dd | Lemon3
[17:59] <Lemon3> Ok. here's what I hope to do. I am on my mbp. I have a external ssd drive. I use a program that converts the iso to the ssd drive. then I restart my mac and boot into ubuntu ... I then install from there.

[18:08] <WolfLambert> Then Firefox crashed
[18:08] <bluezone> Obi1, do you have 2 monitors? Did you double click on the dock before it crashed?
[18:08] <ln_> Obi1: you'll probably won't have to reset reboot you computer though
[18:08] <Obi1> the firefox actualy was not crashed
[18:08] <WolfLambert> And sometimes the whole system crashes after the crash of a heavy program
[18:08] <Obi1> i did not had no menu button and  tree buttons for the windowd
[18:09] <Sven_vB> re
[18:09] <Obi1> I use ubuntu whit LXDE desktop enviroment
[18:10] <quackgyver> Damn, Ubuntu is really starting to look good.
[18:10] <quackgyver> It's almost a functional desktop OS now.
[18:10] <cpined> hello, can I roll back the 12.04 updates?  My network no longer works properly.
[18:11] <MonkeyDust> cpined  ask here for another solution, first give details
[18:11] <kroson> Can I install ubuntu in a system with secureboot?
[18:12] <holstein> kroson: i think the better question would be, will secure boot allow me to install ubuntu?.. i think that information may be at..
[18:12] <holstein> !uefi
[18:13] <OerHeks> kroson only on 64 bit cpu systems
[18:14] <ln_> cpined: maybe check in /var/log/apt if there were any errors during the update
[18:14] <kroson> holstein: what's the problem with secureboot?
[18:14] <holstein> kroson: not sure.. other than it typically blocks you from being able to install operating systems
[18:15] <Sven_vB> new0, about IRC via SSH, it was about port forwardings
[18:19] <tapamo> Hello to all
[18:19] <cpined> ln_: yes I do see three errors in the file
[18:19] <tapamo> I'm wondering if it is possible to enable icons in unity menus ?
[18:19] <cpined> Problems with depmod detected. Automatically uninstalling this module.
[18:19] <cpined> and
[18:20] <snql> how can i rollback my kubuntu to default state ?
[18:20] <cpined> Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.2.0-61-generic (x86_64)
[18:20] <WolfLambert> Hi, I used Unity Tweak Tool and accidentally turned off webapps. Now I can't relaunch Unity Tweak Tool anymore, because it requires webapps. What should I do?
[18:21] <WolfLambert> Any fellow users in here?
[18:21] <ln_> cpined: have you tried opening a terminal and doing a manual update again $    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[18:22] <cpined> no...internet access is not working now...after the update.
[18:22] <SpecialEd> I have 4x Ubuntu 14.04 Servers hosted remotely in a data-center that are all configured for <IP_ADDRESS> & <IP_ADDRESS> DNS servers. The hostnames are server1, server2, server3, & server4. Whats the easiest way for me to be able to resolve "server1" as <IP_ADDRESS>?. Currently its resolving via <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS> even after I place entries in /etc/hosts so I'm not sure but do I need to configure bind
[18:22] <SpecialEd> server and just run my own DNS?
[18:22] <ln_> cpined: of course I'm an indiot
[18:23] <ln_> cpined: how are you connected to the internet? wifi?
[18:24] <cpined> I was...ethernet used to work...now it does not :<
[18:24] <cpined> and this is a netbook
[18:24] <cpined> I can't reinstall from scratch.
[18:25] <ln_> cpined: well first we could just try to get the net working, sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 and see what it says
[18:25] <sport_bill> cpined, have you done a reboot since the update?
[18:26] <cpined> sport_bill: yes
[18:26] <cpined> I regret that now.
[18:26] <sport_bill> ok
[18:26] <SpecialEd> cpined: Can you ping your gateway?
[18:26] <cpined> I just got this thing last night, and started it up today.
[18:27] <cpined> SpecialEd: I get network is unreachable.
[18:27] <amigamagic> hi, someone knows how to change desktop text-color font for icons?
[18:27] <amigamagic> (I'm using gnome-fallback-session on ubuntu 12.04 lts)
[18:27] <SpecialEd> amigamagic: What version of Ubuntu and what GUI (gnome, unity, kde, xfce, etc?)
[18:28] <amigamagic> SpecialEd, it's a gnome fallback session
[18:29] <SpecialEd> amigamagic: I used the same for Ubuntu 12.04 many times. sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-utility <- works wonders, try that :)
[18:30] <amigamagic> it changes font color  for icons on the desktop too?
[18:30] <ln_> cpined: can you try sudo dhclient eth0
[18:31] <SpecialEd> amigamagic: I'm 99% sure
[18:31] <amigamagic> ok, I will try...
[18:31] <cpined> ln_: cannot find device "etho0"
[18:31] <SpecialEd> cpined: ifconfig eth0 up
[18:31] <snql> оО
[18:31] <SpecialEd> amigamagic: might also wanna apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool
[18:32] <cpined> specialed: no such device.
[18:32] <ln_> cpined: what does ifconfig -a print
[18:32] <amigamagic> SpecialEd,  I installed it but I cannot find it in the menu
[18:32] <ln_> cpined: there should be at least one eth0 interface and lo
[18:33] <cpined> ln_:"error fetching interface information: Device not found"
[18:33] <ln_> cpined: damn, somethings funky with your system
[18:33] <cpined> serious
[18:33] <cpined> I'm dead in the water.
[18:33] <cpined> send back to Amazon :(
[18:34] <amigamagic> SpecialEd, I tried it, but it doesn't have options to change text color... Only to change text font
[18:34] <cpined> or create bootable usb drive and install the latest OS.
[18:34] <ln_> cpined: I'd say there probably went something wrong during the update
[18:34] <SpecialEd> cpined: sudo eth1 up
[18:34] <SpecialEd> cpined:  lspci | grep etwork    <- Does that show the network adapter? mine looks like this:
[18:34] <SpecialEd> 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03)
[18:34] <RubixRex> anybody available to help me with launching a program through terminal
[18:34] <ln_> SpecialEd: he said ifconfig -a threw an error
[18:35] <dioioib> RubixRex: what program?
[18:35] <RubixRex> cpuminer
[18:35] <cpined> SE: it just mentions wireless.
[18:35] <SpecialEd> ln_ yeah I pressed enter for ifconfig eth1 up  as soon as I was reading that
[18:35] <cpined> SE: and the wireless is not working now, either.
[18:35] <SpecialEd> cpined: its not seeing ur network adapter, is it a PCMCIA or is it onboard?
[18:36] <dioioib> RubixRex: is it a gui program?
[18:36] <cpined> SE: I think onboard.
[18:36] <ygorabreu> Hello friends.. i would like to know the best tool today to make a costumize iso image from ubuntu? i want to have a live-cd but with a few more programs installed.. can anyone help me?
[18:36] <SpecialEd> amigamagic: Sorry man, I guess I was wrong on gnome-tweak-tool / gnome-tweak-utility.  However it looks like you can hack the color by editing /usr/share/themes/themename/gtk-3.0
[18:36] <RubixRex> this is the program :   http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/?source=dlp
[18:36] <holstein> cpined: but, you can bring packages over to make the wifi work.. or use a supported USB wifi dongle or other options
[18:36] <cpined> SE: what do you think, create a bootable USB drive and install the latest that way?
[18:36] <xenolyse> Hey! I can't move windows between workspaces in the Expo view since installing 14.04. suggestions on how I can solve this?
[18:37] <holstein> cpined: a fresh install is always preferred.. then, you can test the environement live,and see what is working or not
[18:37] <RubixRex> @cpined daily live 14.10 fixed all my networking problems
[18:37] <SpecialEd> ygorabreu: I've had good luck with plop, http://www.plop.at/
[18:37] <dioioib> RubixRex: check the attributes on the file ls -l
[18:37] <holstein> cpined: you shouldnt use the daily iso's
[18:37] <cpined> holstein:yup. but what a drag.  Out of the box...great...after updating EVIL!!!
[18:37] <dioioib> make sure it is executable for me
[18:38] <holstein> !ubuntu+1
[18:38] <cpined> RubixRex: Sweet...need to try...no other options left.
[18:38] <ygorabreu> SpecialEd: thx buddy i'll take a look
[18:38] <RubixRex> it says -rwxr-xr-x
[18:38] <rww> ubottu: tab | cpined
[18:38] <ln_> cpined: yeah its a bummer, but as its new you wont have too much to back up
[18:38] <SpecialEd> I have 4x Ubuntu 14.04 Servers hosted remotely in a data-center that are all configured for <IP_ADDRESS> & <IP_ADDRESS> DNS servers. The hostnames are server1, server2, server3, & server4. Whats the easiest way for me to be able to resolve "server1" as <IP_ADDRESS>?. Currently its resolving via <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS> even after I place entries in /etc/hosts so I'm not sure but do I need to configure bind
[18:38] <SpecialEd> server and just run my own DNS?
[18:38] <holstein> cpined: im not following... but, you should always have updates in place, and ways to recover before doing any large system upgrades like that.. anytime
[18:38] <dioioib> ok then go to the directory and type in ./minerd
[18:39] <dioioib> see if that runs it for you. If not you might need higher level privileges.
[18:39] <RubixRex> Boom
[18:39] <rww> SpecialEd: assuming your /etc/hosts entries are syntactically valid, you probably need to look into man host.conf
[18:39] <RubixRex> thank you.  i didnt have the ./
[18:39] <cpined> holstein, is there a way to recover from this large system upgrade?
[18:40] <holstein> cpined: depends.. ideally, you would make an image, or the manufacturer would provide you with one
[18:40] <dw1> ls -al
[18:40] <SpecialEd> rww: Roger that, I will RTFM right now :D
[18:40] <dioioib> RubixRex: great. Enjoy your mining. :)
[18:40] <holstein> cpined: otherwise, if you get it out of the box, consider useing it "as-is" unless you really konw what you are doing
[18:40] <cpined> ok, thanks guys.
[18:41] <holstein> cpined: i suggest getting the 14.04 live CD, and testing, and fresh install from there
[18:41] <holstein> cpined: cd = iso, on usb or whatever
[18:41] <cpined> holstein, since this is a netbook, no CD/DVD...so bootable usb device?
[18:41] <ln_> cpined: a normal stable ubuntu install is not supposed to break on upgrade, who knows what your vendor configured
[18:41] <SpecialEd> cpined: just out of curiosity what brand is this netbook?
[18:41] <holstein> cpined: could be, you have a vendor specialized verion of ubuntu that you are not intended to upgrade, that you tried to upgrade
[18:42] <tester> sal
[18:42] <cpined> SpecialEd, ASUS 1015E-DS02
[18:42] <tester> romani sunteti?
[18:42] <holstein> cpined: i run 14.04 in many asus EEE's.. just fresh install 14.04 and enjoy!
[18:42] <cpined> holstein, the upgrade option was automatic, so I just ran with it.
[18:42] <SpecialEd> cpined: This guy right here? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834231444
[18:43] <holstein> cpined: ok. well, now you know
[18:43] <dweez> holstein: And knowing is half the battle. G.I. JOE!!!
[18:43] <morph-> can anyone here help me with gitlab/nginx?
[18:43] <cpined> SpecialEd, yup that is the culprit.
[18:44] <SpecialEd> cpined: And what version of Ubuntu did it come with? 12.04 ?
[18:44] <cpined> SpecialEd, yes.
[18:44] <SpecialEd> and u upgraded to 14.04?
[18:45] <StephenS> r u django unchained?
[18:45] <holstein> its not ubuntu that was on there, though cpined .. its likely very specialized.. but, 14.04 will work well.. and is supported for a long time
[18:46] <ln_> cpined: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[18:48] <cpined> ln_, thanks, safes me some time :)

[19:18] <Player> Yes.

[19:18] <OerHeks> Programmer_, don; t use that ppa, just the version in repository's
[19:19] <Programmer_> ok
[19:19] <Player> s2013: open system monitor and see if pulseaudio's in the list, if it isn't type pulseaudio in a terminal.
[19:19] <s2013> ok
[19:19] <s2013> is is running and priority is very high
[19:20] <Player> s2013: try running pulseaudio --k in terminal
[19:20] <s2013> did that
[19:20] <Player> reboot VM?
[19:20] <s2013> did that many times
[19:20] <s2013> its been like that for few weeks
[19:20] <Player> Make sure the settings for it are set properly?
[19:21] <OerHeks> run alsamixer to see if there is something muted/anolog changed to digital

[19:22] <Player> s2013: sound options, and yeah run alsamixer as well
[19:23] <s2013> type alxamixer in console?
[19:23] <SharkMa-san> SupaYoshi: I remember having a similar problem with one virtual server, trying to find the page that has the solution ... the problem we had was that networking was not starting at all and we couldn't bring our interfaces up at all
[19:23] <Player> terminal, yes.
[19:23] <s2013> ok then what
[19:23] <s2013> line/cd/mic/micboos/video/phone is MM
[19:23] <SupaYoshi> SharkMa-san, yeah, well that snot my problem hehe :P
[19:23] <Player> check to see if there's something muted/analog changed to digital
[19:24] <SupaYoshi> It tries to connect to eth0 at startup
[19:24] <SupaYoshi> and that is offline.
[19:24] <SupaYoshi> I want it to stop trying that.
[19:24] <SupaYoshi> well it may
[19:24] <SupaYoshi> but not time out that long...
[19:25] <SharkMa-san> SupaYoshi: how about disabling the interface in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[19:25] <s2013> what am i looking for
[19:26] <_PlayMCPENetwork> zac

[19:27] <s2013> blah its fine. ill try to figure it out later
[19:36] <Roland-> hello how can I disable a service from starting at boot now?
[19:37] <SharkMa-san> another one :P ... I want to install Gitlab on my server, but removing ruby 1.8 removes libapache2-mod-passenger which I need and also breaks all of my redmine installations... I have ruby 1.9.3 installed, but bundler wants to use 1.8.7 no matter what
[19:37] <SharkMa-san> is there any way to tell bundler to use ruby 1.9.3?
[19:38] <Burrito> I'm moving my stuff to an SSD, anyone know a good deduplicating filesystem that works well with SSDs?
[19:38] <Burrito> I'm guessing BtrFS?
[19:38] <Burrito> Roland-, the answers given here seem highly applicable http://askubuntu.com/questions/170640/how-to-disable-apache2-server-from-auto-starting-upon-boot-up
[19:39] <Burrito> Roland-, but I think some services use a different way of starting (not init.d)
[19:39] <Burrito> (or rc.d)
[19:40] <aditya_> j
[19:43] <sombot_> hello
[19:44] <sombot_> when I try sudo apt-get install python-ropemacs, I get the following
[19:44] <SharkMa-san> 1removing ruby 1.8 is a solution, but I feel it's too much hassle to build libapache2-mod-passenger and fix all redmine installations
[19:44] <sombot_> dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable.
[19:44] <sombot_> dpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found in PATH or not executable.
[19:44] <sombot_> dpkg: error: 2 expected programs not found in PATH or not executable.
[19:44] <sombot_> Note: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin.
[19:44] <sombot_> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[19:46] <sombot_> from what I've read this is usually caused by the absence of lines Defaults env_reset
[19:46] <sombot_> Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin" in the /etc/sudoers file
[19:46] <sombot_> but for me /etc/sudoers looks exactly how it should be
[19:46] <sombot_> any ideas?
[19:48] <sombot_> by the way I'm using ubuntu 12.04
[19:49] <holstein> sombot_: is that from a PPA?
[19:49] <MonkeyDust> sombot_  don't abuse the enter key, it has rights too
[19:49] <holstein> sombot_: i would try and get "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-update" to complete without error,then go from there
[19:50] <sombot_> holstein, this gives me "E: Invalid operation dist-update
[19:50] <sombot_> "
[19:50] <MonkeyDust> it's dist-upgrade
[19:51] <holstein> sorry.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:51] <holstein> sombot_: ^
[19:51] <OerHeks> sombot sounds simular to this thread > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2201235 and env-reset plus adding secure path should solve it
[19:51] <sombot_> holstein, no, this is not from PPA
[19:52] <OerHeks> sombot like this http://www.thelinuxguy.nl/how-tos/how-to-fix-roots-path-should-usually-contain-usrlocalsbin-usrsbin-and-sbin-with-ubuntudebian/
[19:52] <sombot_> yes, I've seen it, but my /etc/sudoers file already has those lines

[19:54] <wheresmypaaants> Hi there
[19:54] <wheresmypaaants> I'm looking for Logitech drivers for ubuntu?
[19:54] <holstein> bray90820: should be able to use gigolo to connect easily.. gigolo is in the repos
[19:54] <holstein> wheresmypaaants: they should just be included in the kernel.. what are you trying to do?
[19:54] <sombot_> OerHeks, yes, this is exactly what I had done before, but it didn't work
[19:54] <wheresmypaaants> well, nothing is detecting my C270 webcam
[19:54] <wheresmypaaants> not even Cheese
[19:55] <holstein> wheresmypaaants: it may not.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[19:55] <wheresmypaaants> may not what
[19:55] <holstein> wheresmypaaants: the vendor, logitech, may not provide support for linux
[19:55] <MonkeyDust> wheresmypaaants  does it show with    lsusb
[19:55] <wheresmypaaants> yes
[19:56] <wheresmypaaants> but cheese says theres no device found
[19:56] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam#Identifying_Your_Webcam
[19:56] <bray90820> holstein: on my old windows box i remember changing the registry and then it worked by default
[19:56] <wheresmypaaants> but lsusb says Logitech, Inc. Webcam C270
[19:56] <wheresmypaaants> ls /dev/audio* doesnt exist but ls /dev/video* returns /dev/video0
[19:57] <holstein> bray90820: ok.. if you want to address it on the windows side, you'll need windows support.. otherwise, samba is the way to go.. though, if its already shared, gigolo should be able to mount the share
[19:57] <bray90820> holstein: thanks
[19:57] <holstein> bray90820: there is nothing in the windows registry that will enable samba sharing on the linux side
[19:57] <bray90820> holstein: http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/windows/article.php/3849061/Use-Samba-With-Windows-7-Clients.htm
[19:59] <sombot_> is it possible to solve the missing ldconfig problem by simply copying it from somewhere else?
[20:00] <holstein> bray90820: you are asking to access an already existing windows share from linux..
[20:00] <holstein> bray90820: the windows sharing server is already setup, then.. if not, you need to create a share
[20:01] <bray90820> holstein: the windows share is already setup
[20:01] <holstein> bray90820: cool.. have you tried using gigolo from linux to access it?
[20:01] <holstein> if not.. thats what i suggest trying, or read the samba documenation i gave.. otherwise, you dont make linux connect to that share by editing the windows registry
[20:02] <bray90820> holstein: what I am trying to tell you in there was a way i got it to work last time with the regular connect to network
[20:02] <holstein> bray90820: ok.. unless you remember, or can elaborate, i suggest reading the samba documentaion.. or just try gigolo to see if you can connect or not
[20:03] <bray90820> Like i said i needed to do a regedit in windows
[20:03] <holstein> bray90820: otherwise, you dont make changes on the sharing server to configure connecting clients
[20:03] <holstein> bray90820: sure. and im disagreeing with you.. you *dont* need to do that
[20:03] <bray90820> holstein: then why did it work last time
[20:03] <holstein> bray90820: you are asking how to make linux connect to your windows share by changing the windows registry.. and you dont
[20:04] <holstein> bray90820: you can use gigolo to easily test connections to samba shares
[20:04] <smithw> Hi. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on a computer with an IDE hdd. The livecd, however, is unable to see any hard disks on this machine (not on gparted, not on lsblk, and not on /dev/hd*). This machine currently boots to its HD (which currently has windows xp) without issue. any ideas what might be going wrong?
[20:04] <bray90820> holstein: why did it work last time then
[20:05] <holstein> bray90820: it didnt.. you are not asking the question that the link you gave addresses
[20:05] <bray90820> holstein: It did tho
[20:06] <holstein> bray90820: i think either you are being unclear, or inaccurate, or i am misunderstanding you.. please use gigolo from linux to connect to the windows share, or elaboarate, or wait on another volunteer
[20:06] <bray90820> holstein: what do you think i mean
[20:07] <holstein> bray90820: i think you mean what you asked.. how to connect linux to your windows share.. in which case, you use samba.. and you can try gigolo to connect to the windows share
[20:07] <zach_> How are you
[20:07] <zach_> Where is the chat
[20:07] <holstein> bray90820: you dont use a registry change to faciliate or address the linux connecting to the windows machine

[20:10] <bray90820> I actually just found that and wad about to try it
[20:10] <holstein> bray90820: that is for connecting windows 7 clients to a samba share.. you are asking how to connect linux to a windows share
[20:11] <holstein> bray90820: ok.. that is not addressing the question you are asking.. please try gigolo and refer to the proper documntation i gave

[20:23] <sireorion> Bashing-om: what should i do
[20:24] <Bashing-om> Guest84852: Google "setxkbmap Japanese ubuntu" should give positive results.
[20:24] <sireorion> Bashing-om: something with the terminal
[20:25] <sireorion> and pastebin
[20:25] <Bashing-om> Guest84852: Yeah "setxkbmap" is a terminal command requiring completion with arguments and the desired options.

[20:39] <_PlayMCPENetwork> E: Unable to locate package LAMP

[20:48] <SupaYoshi> how do i add a drive to fstab without mounting it?
[20:48] <SupaYoshi> and making the crontab mount it?
[20:48] <SupaYoshi> ./dev/sdb1   *          63     3935987     1967962+   b  W95 FAT32 is my usb drive.
[20:51] <SupaYoshi> ./dev/sdb1    /mnt/usb2g    fat32    defaults    0    0 would this work?
[20:51] <sport_bill> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab
[20:52] <sport_bill> auto / noauto
[20:52] <sport_bill>     With the auto option, the device will be mounted automatically at bootup or when the mount -a command is issued. auto is the default option. If you do not want the device to be mounted automatically, use the noauto option in /etc/fstab. With noauto, the device can be only mounted explicitly
[20:52] <wickedheadache> so is there a version of ubuntu for super multitasking?
[20:52] <SupaYoshi> okay great,
[20:52] <SupaYoshi> also, .. how do i make the mount owned by a user and not root:root?
[20:54] <SupaYoshi> mount: only root can mount /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/usb2g
[20:54] <sport_bill> SupaYoshi,  check the user option
[20:55] <Guest58467> hola
[20:55] <SupaYoshi> ./dev/sdb1    /mnt/usb2g    vfat    noauto,user    0    0 how about that?
[20:56] <sport_bill> seems good

[20:56] <vorderseer> hi
[20:56] <Guest58467> spanish?
[20:57] <SupaYoshi> @reboot mount /mnt/usb2g
[20:57] <SupaYoshi> does this command work in crontab -e?
[20:57] <SupaYoshi> crontab*

[20:59] <sumiciu> qué pasa?
[20:59] <SupaYoshi> sport_bill,  how would it be done better? :/
[21:00] <sport_bill> SupaYoshi, do you want it to be mounted on boot
[21:00] <sport_bill> ?
[21:00] <SupaYoshi> sport_bill, yes
[21:00] <SupaYoshi> but i dont want it to fail, if its unplugged.
[21:00] <SupaYoshi> *fail to boot.
[21:00] <shinji257> Does anyone in here happen to have experience dealing with unprivileged lxc containers in Ubuntu 14.04?  I'm trying to get some help and so far I've just hit dead ends.
[21:00] <SupaYoshi> so thats why crontab and not fstab.
[21:00] <sport_bill> ok, then remove the noauto option
[21:01] <SupaYoshi> that will make the sytem halt till i cancel it
[21:01] <SupaYoshi> cus it cant find the drive.
[21:01] <SupaYoshi> correct?
[21:01] <aarobc> Is there a suggested dlna server for ubuntu?
[21:01] <sport_bill> there is another option for that
[21:02] <SupaYoshi> oh
[21:02] <SupaYoshi> yeah someone else said, put it in fstab, and then later mount it with crontab
[21:02] <Roland-> hey how do I disable an service from starting at boot now ?
[21:02] <SupaYoshi> (which seems fine to me) since i want to mount it as that user anyway
[21:02] <SupaYoshi> :)
[21:03] <sport_bill> i forgot the option :P
[21:03] <sport_bill> let me check it
[21:03] <SupaYoshi> ok :P

[21:13] <innocent95> apt-get update is used to update repositories
[21:13] <SupaYoshi> okay hey
[21:14] <SupaYoshi> sport_bill, lets say i boot without the drive
[21:14] <SupaYoshi> and plug it in later
[21:14] <innocent95> aruz, it's going to install new versions of your softwares
[21:14] <aarobc> Anyone having issues on 14.04 where your mouse clicks and window focus randomly stops working?
[21:14] <SupaYoshi> will i be able to use it
[21:14] <SupaYoshi> without doin anything? :)
[21:14] <aruz> innocent95: that means i have to wait forever
[21:14] <aruz> innocent95:  when i had linux mint it doesn't have that kind of problem it installed in 10 minutes
[21:15] <sport_bill> SupaYoshi, you should
[21:15] <innocent95> aruz, No, till your end package
[21:15] <Kalel> aarobc: Yes. In my case my wireless mouse was with the pills uncharged...
[21:15] <sport_bill> SupaYoshi, do a reboot with the drive unplugged to test it
[21:15] <aruz> and other part it is installed same file over n over again
[21:16] <SupaYoshi> done it, works :)
[21:16] <sport_bill> nice :)
[21:16] <SupaYoshi> awesome man :)
[21:16] <aarobc> Kalel: restarting Xorg makes everything work again though, so I know it's not my mouse
[21:16] <Kalel> aarobc: You should check the compiz settings tho..
[21:16] <innocent95> aruz, sudo apt-get autoremove
[21:17] <innocent95> aruz, sudo apt-get clean and apt-get purge
[21:17] <c|oneman> that brings up an interesting point, I have no idea what to do if an installation is interrupted
[21:18] <aruz> innocent95: what is function of these command sudo apt-get clean and apt-get purge?
[21:18] <innocent95>  This command removes .deb files for packages that are no longer installed on your system. Depending on your installation habits, removing these files from /var/cache/apt/archives may regain a significant amount of diskspace.
[21:20] <innocent95> aruz, No purge
[21:20] <Deihmos> can i move the dock to the bottom instead?
[21:20] <JokesOnYou77> I have a directory tree from the webapps directory of a windows tomcat7 install, where do I put the directory in ubuntu?
[21:20] <aruz> innocent95: so what if the function of these command?
[21:21] <innocent95> This command completely removes a package and the associated configuration files. Configuration files residing in ~ are not usually affected by this command
[21:21] <innocent95> it takes a package name as an argument
[21:22] <Kurvivor> hello! i need to install ia32-libs package
[21:22] <Kurvivor> unfortunately it is not in trusty

[21:23] <sport_bill> aruz, if it is in the process of updating the repositories you can safely break with ctrl-c
[21:23] <Kalel> Guys, what means 'convo'?
[21:23] <Kurvivor> but even after i add raring to my sources and run apt-get update, i still cannot install ia32-libs
[21:23] <innocent95> aruz, Get:# ?
[21:23] <sport_bill> aruz,  then you can try another mirror perhaps
[21:23] <Kurvivor> seems that raring lists are not actually downloaded at all
[21:24] <innocent95> aruz, Perhaps your mirror is slow
