[16:37] <DeltaHeavy> ikonia: I hang around there mainly and we get questions like that every day. If he wants to watch it in media player nvm that comment though.
[16:38] <ikonia> DeltaHeavy: go for it if you feel it's ontopic there
[16:38] <DeltaHeavy> I'ts not if it's for WMP streaming. In that case I havn't a clue
[16:39] <linguini> My family has an ubuntu machine that is about 4-5 years old.  Recently, it has started to turn itself off randomly.  Is there some way to find out /why/ it is turning off?
[16:39] <ikonia> linguini: possibly overheating ?
[16:39] <graingert_ufo> genii-around: k
[16:39] <DeltaHeavy> Actually SAMBA would do that well enough. I thought he wanted it to stream over various networks
[16:39] <ariana> linguini, /var/log
[16:39] <nibbier> linguini, turn off like initiate shutdown sequence, or like all off suddenly?
[16:40] <ariana> linguini, I had the same problem with overheating
[16:40] <nibbier> linguini, anyway, download and use the livecd, if error occures its most likely hardware (like dust-stuffed fan, see arianas comments) if it runs stable it might be some software/installation issue
[16:40] <DeltaHeavy> Ever since installing XFCE (xfce-desktop) my sound hasn't been working at all. I'm on Ubuntu 11.10, and was using GNOME2 fallback mode priorr to this. Anybody know of a fix or care to troubleshoot it?
[16:41] <graingert_ufo> genii-around: E: Version ‘2.2.16-1ubuntu3.5’ for ‘apache2’ was not found
[16:41] <Wavelight> try with another hdd some burnin test and monitor temperatures
[16:42] <Toph2> DeltaHeavy,,, i had the same issue,, i uninstalled Pulsemixer , installed alsamixer and am fine
[16:42] <Wavelight> see bios setting, shut down temperature, fan speed, etc
[16:42] <linguini> nibbier: I think it just turns off.  I don't know because the computer is several hundred miles away, but I'll ask.
[16:42] <Toph2> DeltaHeavy,,, it seemed the 2 mixers were interfering with one another
[16:43] <genii-around> graingert_ufo: Interesting. Well, you caould manually just do something like: wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/apache2/apache2-mpm-itk_2.2.16-1ubuntu3.5_amd64.deb    ( or the i386 version, whatever your platform is) , then sudo dpkg -i <deb-filename-you-downloaded>
[16:43] <DeltaHeavy> I'll give it a go
[16:43] <linguini> ikonia: Thanks, I'll have them run sensors immediately after the computer is restarted after such an episode.
[16:45] <DeltaHeavy> Can't test if it worked now but will later. Thanks
[16:45] <linguini> I'll also have them try a live CD (and do a mem test, I guess).
[16:45] <ariana> how could I install wxwidget media library? I cant find it anywhere?
[16:45] <nibbier> linguini, memtest is a good idea, but there might be plenty of defective hw on a 5yr old pc
[16:46] <ariana> I tried to compile dvd styler 2.2 but err: wxwidget media library missing
[16:46] <ariana> I installed wxwidgets but where could I find wxwidget media library?
[16:47] <sacarlson> ariana: maybe ppa?
[16:48] <ariana> sacarlson I tried google everywhere but it seems my Google doesnt know... crazy..
[16:48] <ZeloZelos> ariana maybe try getting the development wxwidget (if there is one)
[16:48] <sacarlson> ariana: I used to use wxwidgets lib for bitcoin that I got from ppa but not sure they have the lib for ubuntu 12.04
[16:49] <aithox> genii-around: thx so so so so so much :D i got it work
[16:49] <ariana> ok, thanks for info people, I keep searching...
[16:49] <genii-around> aithox: You're welcome

[16:52] <deepspeed> Guys, I have an off-topic question..   I want to put avlinux on a pc that only has a cd-drive and no usb-boot support, but the .iso is 2 gigs.  Can I make a multi-disk copy of the .iso and install it like that?
[16:52] <ariana> carpediembaby, I installed it by sudo apt-get install eclipse eclipse-jdt

[17:03] <kyle__> Has anyone here tried orchestra on 12.04 server?  I see articles about it being used on 11.x desktop.
[17:04] <beefman> ord

[17:05] <oCean> kyle__: ^ that is in the ubuntu repositories
[17:05] <drag0nius> how could i limit bandwidth usage of server?
[17:05] <drag0nius> sth like netlimiter
[17:05] <kyle__> oCean: I know.  It's an ubuntu specific thing.  I was wondering about experiences using it on 12, since people in chan often are quite knowlegable.
[17:06] <Wavelight> I-ve read that on the installation process I must choose from static ip or dhcp but my ISP gave me a user name and password
[17:06] <Wavelight> pppoe
[17:06] <Pecker> Wavelight: u using DSL?
[17:06] <Pecker> hwo are you connected to the net
[17:06] <kyle__> drag0nius: I _think_ you can limmit it someways using iptables, but IIRC non trivial.  It's easy to do with a proxy like squid however.
[17:06] <Wavelight> no, fyber link
[17:06] <Pecker> ah
[17:06] <oCean> kyle__: aah. You could try #ubuntu-server channel too
[17:06] <kyle__> k
[17:07] <Pecker> anyways for ppoe passwrod i think networkmanager does that in the DSL tab of connections window
[17:07] <Pecker> altho personally if you have to have a password to get online, id set theuser and pass setup at the router level
[17:08] <Wavelight> thank you, I-ll try this
[17:08] <Pecker> that way any computer can use the net connection without needing to knwo apssword

[17:18] <Cottus> Pecker, it's like it was enabling it in the hardware
[17:18] <fidel> Pecker: i'Ve seen that too once in the past - IIRC a bios update fixed that issue here
[17:18] <fidel> but its for sure years ago in my case
[17:19] <Pecker> yeah i rmeember 1st trying ubuntu 8.10 on thi s machine
[17:19] <Pecker> had to upgrade BIOS in order to properly use HDD

[17:21] <leeech> pecker i think that is what causing me to fallback

[17:21] <leeech> because when i run a search i dont see it
[17:21] <Pecker> yeah it should show up there
[17:21] <Pecker> it did for me on geforce gt240

[17:32] <Guest84389> is ubuntu driver downloads down?
[17:33] <OerHeks> Guest84389, driver for what? a cpu does not need a 'driver'
[17:33] <hrolf> OerHeks: I cannot even open the file with a text editor
[17:33] <Guest84389> i nned the driver for my laptop but when I do a search nothing comes up for Intel Pentium B960
[17:34] <Guest84389> i looked at intel.com and they do not have any linux downloads for it either

[17:37] <OerHeks> Guest84389, driver for what? a cpu does not need a 'driver'
[17:38] <Pecker> Guest84389: what exactly is your problem?
[17:39] <Guest84389> If my laptop has a driver I need its software OerKeks If there were useless they wouldn't build them inside a laptop don't you think? So asking me a driver for what its a silly question cause it be for whatever I will need that Intel Pentium B960  in the future
[17:40] <Pecker> I still dotn get what you are trying to fix ith your computer Guest84389
[17:40] <lwizardl> what application can I use to take pages from a pdf file and export them into another pdf file?
[17:40] <Guest84389> BUT since you repositories do not have any driver it make the whole Ubuntu OS useless compare to windows or apple right??
[17:41] <OerHeks> Please, don't get me wrong, driver for what? videocard ?

[17:42] <Pecker> so does the laptop work in ubuntu without any problems?
[17:42] <IdleOne> Guest84389: no, the problem is we still have no idea what you are trying to get fixed
[17:42] <Guest84389> i seach everywhere even on intel.com for it
[17:42] <Pecker> so does the laptop work in ubuntu without any problems?
[17:42] <DarthExpeditor> how do I install LVM support?
[17:42] <OerHeks> Guest84389, your processor B960 is supported in the kernel.
[17:42] <IdleOne> !lvm | DarthExpeditor
[17:44] <Guest84389> well when I got to additional drivers and do a search it tells me NO drivers found and when I try to use compiz it tells me no drivers are install or support graphics
[17:44] <Pecker> Guest84389: thats NOT a CPU problem
[17:44] <Guest84389> so no driver = lose of some uses on my laptop
[17:45] <Pecker> thats you need graphics drivers
[17:45] <IdleOne> Now we are getting somewhere
[17:45] <Jemmm> Im downloading Ubuntu on my netbook right now is there anything I need to do?
[17:45] <Pecker> NOT cpu drivers

[17:45] <Pecker> ok Guest84389 in a terminal type this: lspci -nn | grep 'VGA'
[17:45] <Pecker> aw OerHeks you beat me to the punch
[17:46] <OerHeks> np
[17:46] <Pecker> er wait the -nn part gives the HW ids
[17:46] <Pecker> whereas normal lspci doesnt
[17:46] <Guest84389> lspci -nn | grep 'VGA' with the 'VGA' just like that?
[17:46] <Pecker> yep
[17:46] <Guest84389> ok

[18:09] <chaotix> ive tried lots of other good stuff too...  i was orig very melancholy about the direction of gnome, and the stuff thats out now, but so much creatioin has gon on since then and there are even more options now
[18:09] <rypervenche> chaotix: Which others have you tried?
[18:09] <chaotix> mate has surely surprised me, and cinnamon has come along...  and gnome 3 isnt terrible, just not my favorite, but i do relaly like what they did
[18:09] <IdleOne> Please keep this channel for support only. #ubuntu-disccus or #ubuntu-offtopic are great places to chit chat
[18:09] <Pecker> I liek the  shell concept
[18:10] <Pecker> to where you have gnome backend, but totally different frontends all you want
[18:10] <chaotix> lets see, mint 12 64 bit mate and cinnamon versions, ubuntu 12.04, xubuntu 12.04, fedora 17 with gnome 3, and backbox linux which has xfce, and bacltrack 5r2 gnome which is gnome 2
[18:11] <chaotix> and i think thats almost it
[18:11] <chaotix> ummm
[18:11] <chaotix> theres a few more
[18:11] <chaotix> but im not on that partition with all my vboxes
[18:11] <IdleOne> chaotix: Do you have an Ubuntu support question?
[18:12] <RawChid> 3~/wc
[18:12] <chaotix> IdleOne, i asked it befre and got my answer...  rypervenche had asked me what other distros i had been trying lately and i answerted him, but i can take a hint and move to #ubuntu-offtopic if that  would be better
[18:12] <IdleOne> it would :)
[18:12] <chaotix> ok  :)
[18:13] <chaotix> totally understand...  i used to be annoyed at the strictness of this channel, but after seeing how bad some of the lax ones can be, like the undernet server for instance, i get it
[18:15] <drag0nius> how much ram ubuntu usb requires to run?
[18:15] <Pecker> same as livecd iirc
[18:16] <drag0nius> guest 512 mb not enough? ;d
[18:16] <ikonia> drag0nius: should be
[18:17] <drag0nius> it hangs up when i try to start gparted ;d
[18:18] <ikonia> drag0nius: define "hangs"
[18:18] <Mewmouse> http://askubuntu.com/questions/69576/how-to-customize-the-gnome-classic-panel forget it I fixed it by following this guide
[18:18] <drag0nius> stops responding to mouse/keyboard
[18:18] <Pecker>  512 shoudl be ok for gparted
[18:18] <drag0nius> i'm downloading standalone gparted
[18:18] <ikonia> drag0nius: so the mouse no longer moves ?
[18:19] <drag0nius> yep
[18:19] <ikonia> does the capslock / numlock keyboard light still change
[18:20] <drag0nius> no idea, turned it off
[18:20] <drag0nius> forget it
[18:20] <alchemist9> exit
[18:21] <drag0nius> are there any ram requirements for media streaming ubuntu server?
[18:22] <sebuba> Hello,  anyone know if there is a limit of interfaces into "/etc/nework/interfaces"  ?
[18:24] <tomek_> hello
[18:24] <FriedPet> I've got a question:  If the only way to run the LiveCD is to use nomodeset, what changes should I make after a successful installation to ensure trouble-free booting?
[18:25] <RBV> FriedPet: Add that to your boot line in grub
[18:26] <FriedPet> RBV: I tried, but it doesn't work. :/  Have no idea why not.
[18:27] <mrsuchyPL> @sebuda I think is's not
[18:27] <reanimation911> Sorry, new here ...
[18:28] <reanimation911> Ok so i just installed the latest ubuntu and i had 8.10 and an XP partition before. Been a long time since i used this laptop. I wanna keep the old ones....how?
[18:29] <glitsj16> FriedPet: how did you add it to grub? if you made changes to /etc/default/grub .. don't forget to run 'sudo update-grub'
[18:30] <sebuba> mrsuchyPL, I can not add more than 5265 (eth0: 5265)
[18:34] <FriedPet> glitsj16: in the grub menu I pressed 'e' and replaced "quiet splash" with "nomodeset". I have not made any changes to any files yet. Can't get into Ubuntu. But now I'm baffled - I just rebooted my system and it works. I didn't even do anything! Why would Ubuntu sometimes not work and other times do!?
[18:34] <bars0> FiedPet: what graphic card do you have?
Can anybody help me with keeping my old partitions after installing 12.04??<b\>
[18:35] <WeberEInc> Anyone know anything about Evince (PDF Reader/Writer)
[18:37] <glitsj16> FriedPet: so many things could play a part in the boot cycle.. without a detailed view from logs that's hard to answer
[18:37] <reanimation911> Not very good for getting help on here huh...? -.-
[18:38] <SkippersBoss> !patience | reanimation911
[18:39] <glitsj16> WeberEInc: questions with anyone and anything are quite difficult to answer .. evince not working for you?
[18:40] <FriedPet> bars0: I have some nvidia card. not sure which one - it's an old laptop, around 5 years old.
[18:40] <FriedPet> glitsj16: no worries, I understand. thank you though
[18:41] <beaky> In what ways will Ubuntu compete with Windows 8?
[18:41] <fidel> !ot > beaky
[18:42] <beaky> thanks
[18:42] <reanimation911> Skipperboss and ubottu: I've looked EVERYWHERE and im lost :/
[18:42] <oscar> reanimation911, just prepare some space for 12.04, you can shrink partitions from the live cd and create new ones which you install 12.04 on
[18:44] <basz> hi how do i install https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poco? I think I need to add a ppa ? but what ppa code would do that? "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:someppa/ppa"
[18:45] <genii-around> basz: Yep, that's the syntax
[18:45] <basz> what would I use for someppa/ppa if I want that poco library?
[18:45] <basz> or where can I find it?
[18:46] <reanimation911> oscar: i used a USB stick and im at the installation page now to not delete my 8.10 and XP but im lost now
[18:47] <reanimation911> oscar: new partition table??
[18:47] <BluesKaj> basz, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:poco/ppa
[18:47] <glitsj16> basz: those are in the regular repositories, no need for a ppa
[18:47] <reanimation911> sorry for all the noob questions -.-
[18:48] <dln> ciao
[18:48] <dln> !list
[18:49] <basz> hmm, "Cannot access PPA (https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~poco/+archive/ppa) to get PPA information, please check your internet connection."
[18:50] <BluesKaj> basz, what app are you tring to get ?
[18:50] <trism> basz: sudo apt-get install libpoco-dev; that will get you what you need to build against the library
[18:51] <trism> basz: no ppa required as glitsj16 said above
[18:51] <reanimation911> Can anybody help me with keeping my old partitions after installing 12.04??
[18:51] <ikonia> reanimation911: they won't change
[18:51] <basz> trying to install https://github.com/OpenRTMFP/Cumulus/wiki/Installation
[18:52] <reanimation911> ikonia: well i didnt select delete the old ones, but now idk what to do to keep the old ones and have 12
[18:53] <basz> got libpoco installed! thanks… continueing my quest
[18:53] <ikonia> reanimation911: select advanced, and just don't change the partition table
[18:54] <reanimation911> ikonia: try to hit INSTALL NOW and get error "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partition meu"
[18:54] <reanimation911> menu*
[18:54] <ikonia> reanimation911: your partitions are gone then
[18:54] <petoo> hey
[18:54] <petoo> there is some problem with /tmp
[18:55] <ikonia> petoo: what problem
[18:55] <reanimation911> ikonia: idts cuz it said that i had both 8.10 and XP...
[18:55] <petoo> whenever I try to download something it says it is full
[18:55] <ikonia> petoo: is it ?
[18:55] <petoo> yes
[18:55] <petoo> when I tried df
[18:55] <JoshuaBranson> Would blacklisting unused kernel modules speed up my computer? Can someone give me a link where I can find documentation to all kernel modules?
[18:55] <petoo> it showed overflow in front of df
[18:56] <petoo>  /tmp*
[18:56] <ikonia> petoo: right, so it's full then, what's the problem
[18:56] <petoo> ikonia, while downloading anything it gives me same error and can't downloading anything.
[18:56] <reanimation911> ikonia: pretty much all i want to do is keep all my music, docs, what not but still install 12
[18:57] <llutz> JoshuaBranson: it won't make sense. the kernel only loads modules it needs
[18:57] <ikonia> petoo: yes, if /tmp is full.......the error "/tmp is full" is valid, what do you expect ?
[18:57] <bars0> FriedPet: does your laptop boots? If yes, try to inatall openssh-server. Just swich to virtual console, login, and type 'sudo apt-get install -y openssh-server' type your password and wait 2-4 minuts (depending of your connection speed) Then reboot: 'sudo shutdown -r now'. Try to log-in from another machine via ssh. Install nvidia driver via command line.
[18:57] <ikonia> reanimation911: it appears the partition table is gone, or you've not got a root partition defined (which you should have if you are re-using your 8.10 partitions)
[18:57] <WeberEInc1> glitsj16: Evince opened a PDF Form and allowed me to fill it out, save it and re-open it... Now, however, when I send it as an attachment (plain or zipped) to myself or a colleague - Acrobat Reader v9 an v10 cannot open it
[18:58] <reanimation911> ikonia: any way to go from here then? and thx for the help btw...
[18:58] <petoo> ikonia, is it alright if delete some of the items from /tmp folder
[18:58] <petoo> ?
[18:58] <ikonia> petoo: it's just temp data, sure
[18:58] <ikonia> reanimation911: it really depends what state your disk is in, if you look at it in the partition editor, do you have any partitions ?
[18:58] <JoshuaBranson>  llutz: lsmod showed my computer has joydev loaded. That module apparently works for joysticks. I don't have a joystick on my laptop.
[18:59] <reanimation911> ikonia: i have no idea...been a while since i used ubuntu so im kinda lost :/
[18:59] <llutz> JoshuaBranson: blacklist it, you won't see any difference
[19:00] <ikonia> reanimation911: boot from a cd and open the partition editor and look
[19:00] <reanimation911> ikonia: im booting from USB at the moment....does it make a difference?
[19:00] <ikonia> reanimation911: not really
[19:01] <glitsj16> WeberEInc1: no problem directing that to me, but i don't know the first thing about PDF manipulation :) .. in our earlier exchange i was merely trying to point out that more details were needed .. now the whole channel knows your situation and can chime in
[19:01] <JoshuaBranson> llutz: thanks for the help. :) Do you know of a website where I could enter joydev or some other module name and find what hardware it supports?
[19:01] <petoo> ok , it doesnt seem to be helping me
[19:01] <FriedPet> bars0:  It booted just now without me doing anything! It gave a few errors (can't remember exactly :s). I downloaded the new drivers and rebooted for the update to take effect. Now I'm back to step one - doesn't want to boot! Funny thing I noticed: I tried booting 3-4 times now and everytime it gives a different error - first only a purple/black screen, then screens similar to http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=28upbux&s=6 but with the
[19:01] <llutz> JoshuaBranson: there should be documentation about it in the kernel-sources
[19:02] <bars0> http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=28upbux&s=6 http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=28upbux&s=6
[19:02] <ki4ro> What's the terminal command to make a list go 1 page at a time instead of big long list?
[19:02] <petoo> there is not enough space to save /tm/*** file
[19:02] <Fuchs> ki4ro: | less
[19:02] <rypervenche> ki4ro: less
[19:03] <Fuchs> ki4ro: or any other pager, like more or most
[19:03] <ki4ro> Fuchs: and Rypervenche thanks
[19:03] <Fuchs> You're welcome
[19:04] <FriedPet> bars0 - can you see it? http://i48.tinypic.com/28upbux.jpg
[19:04] <WeberEInc1> Hello all - Evince (Ubuntu's PDF Reader) opened a PDF Form and allowed me to fill it out, save it and re-open it... Now, however, when I send it as an attachment (plain or zipped) to myself or a colleague - Acrobat Reader v9 an v10 cannot open it
[19:04] <Anxi80> I have a machine running OS X, if I install Ubuntu over it, will it import pictures and media into Ubuntu?
[19:04] <zenwryly> How can I route forwarded traffic through eth0 but route all traffic for the gateway itself through tun0?
[19:04] <ikonia> Anxi80: doubtful
[19:04] <KotBehemot> hi there is it possible to install qt >= 4.7 on ubuntu lucid lynx
[19:04] <KotBehemot> ?
[19:05] <ikonia> Anxi80: it's going over the top, not along side
[19:05] <reanimation911> ikonia: ok gimme a min
[19:05] <Anxi80> ikonia: yes, replacing previous OS
[19:05] <rypervenche> Anxi80: No, it will replace them. Save them all to an external hard drive before installing.
[19:05] <ikonia> Anxi80: right, so it can't import from something it needs to format before it can write to
[19:05] <bars0> FriedPet: sorry, I need to go. Repeat your questions. Good luck!
[19:06] <FriedPet> bars0. thank you
[19:07] <Anxi80> ikonia: it can if someone wrote some fancy swap partition mid installation. No worries. Thanks for help
[19:07] <ikonia> Anxi80: no, it can't
[19:07] <Mrokii> Hello. I want to edit a pre-existing GTK3-theme and have a tutorial, but in the time .css-file is this line: '@import url("resource:///org/gnome/evolve/gtk-main.css");' and I have no clue where that path is pointing to. Can somebody help?
[19:07] <Mrokii> -"time"
[19:10] <John_901> HI! How to make people in group sudo not get asked for password to use sudo?
[19:10] <reanimation911> ikonia: ok, instead of install i just booted from USB and opened gparted...now what am i looking for?
[19:10] <Anxi80> ikonia: make partition both OS can read/write. Fill with media from outgoing OS. Install new OS in other partition. New OS imports from media partition. New OS consumes media partition. done
[19:10] <ikonia> reanimation911: do you have partitions
[19:10] <reanimation911> Looks like it, yea
[19:10] <ikonia> Anxi80: the installer won't be aware of that partition, it looks in standard locations for "dual boots" not replacments
[19:10] <reanimation911> ikonia: ^^
[19:10] <ikonia> reanimation911: tell me what you have
[19:11] <Zyewni> Partitioning question: I have 125GB unallocated. Am trying to create two partitions out of it but when I go to create the first, Windows says the maximum number of partitions has been reached. Is this an actual thing, or is Windows just being lame again? If I make the partitions with GParted, is it going to cause a problem in Windows?
[19:11] <ikonia> Zyewni: you can only have 4 primary partitions
[19:11] <ikonia> Zyewni: it's nothing to do with windows
[19:11] <Anxi80> ikonia: is it impossible to change that?
[19:11] <ikonia> Anxi80: no
[19:11] <John_901> will echo "" > file create the file if it doesn't exist?
[19:11] <llutz> John_901: yes
[19:12] <ikonia> John_901: it will create a file called file
[19:12] <Zyewni> Ok, that's interesting
[19:12] <reanimation911> ikonia: ill name them in order: /dev/sda1 -- /dev/sda2 -- /dev/sda5 -- unallocated
[19:12] <llutz> John_901: just >file   would do
[19:12] <John_901> ok ty
[19:12] <ikonia> reanimation911: ok, so what are the file systems that are on them
[19:12] <John_901> how to make people in group sudo not get asked for password to use sudo?
[19:12] <beaky> I've got a new ASUS zenbook with Ubuntu installed. Should I be aware of any issues with the solid-state drive or sleep or anything else?
[19:12] <llutz> John_901: "man sudoers" (nopasswd)
[19:12] <trism> Mrokii: sounds like you are editing the Adwaita theme, which is packed in the .gresource file, it is possible to unpack files individually with the gresource command but it is a pain, probably better to: apt-get source gnome-themes-standard;
[19:12] <i7c> hi, my ubuntu calculates the remaining battery time. unfortunately it is wrong by hours... any chance linux will "learn" my battery?
[19:13] <trism> Mrokii: that way you can work with the unpacked theme
[19:13] <John_901> llutz: can I just edit the already existing sudo group?
[19:13] <glitsj16> KotBehemot: you can search for it at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas .. i found https://launchpad.net/~euroford/+archive/kde
[19:13] <llutz> John_901: you could, but its basically a bad idea
[19:13] <reanimation911> ikonia: sda1 is linux-swap. sda2 says extended. sda5 says ext3. unallocated says unallocated
[19:13] <rrva_> Hi! I lost sound output from a long-time working alsa setup. What I did was installing oss-linux, and then deinstalling it. After deinstalling I had ALSA sound working fine, although I had to do alsa force-reload a couple of times. Now I lost sound completely (but a sound card is detected). I checked all mixer levels. speaker-test is silent but gives no error. How to check why sound is mute? I have an intel hda compatible chip.
[19:13] <bestdnd> my computer freeze so i need to do hard reset (no keyboard, no mouse, no ping). how can i check what happens?
[19:14] <John_901> llutz: so add another line "%sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL"?
[19:14] <ikonia> reanimation911: you only have one linux partition
[19:14] <llutz> John_901: general "NOPASSWD" always is a bad idea
[19:14] <ShapeShifter499> Hi
[19:14] <John_901> llutz: that's for sudo users??
[19:14] <i7c> bestdnd: maybe syslog?
[19:14] <ikonia> reanimation911: is the data on that partition the one you want to keep ?
[19:14] <ShapeShifter499> Do I need a ext file system to run ubuntu in a chroot?
[19:14] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: no
[19:15] <reanimation911> ikonia: yes. ok, so what do i have to do during the installation to keep that?
[19:15] <bestdnd> what is syslog and how do i use it?
[19:15] <ikonia> reanimation911: you need to create a new partition to act as your new systems "root" file system
[19:15] <reanimation911> ikonia: so then what's "extended"?
[19:15] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: So I can dump all my files into a directory and chroot it?
[19:15] <reanimation911> ikonia: sorry, but how? :S
[19:15] <dazzel> are there any luks cryptsetup experts here?
[19:15] <ikonia> reanimation911: an extended partition,
[19:15] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: no,
[19:15] <i7c> bestdnd: it's just a file.  look in /var/log/syslog   or to print it open a terminal and type:   cat /var/log/syslog
[19:16] <z999> I have the strangest problem, it's probably a bad install. I installed 12.04 and it doesn't boot if I don't connect the usb drive that I used to install. It isn't a live cd because I installed several programs and they were saved, but it boots only when the install usb is connected.
[19:16] <rypervenche> dazzel: Many of us use it. What's up?
[19:16] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: you need a working install in a place that the running system can access
[19:16] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: Um
[19:16] <ikonia> reanimation911: the partition tool should allow you to create one
[19:16] <John_901> llutz: so should i add that to the existing %sudo line, or create another line?
[19:16] <ShapeShifter499> Ok let me start from the beginning
[19:16] <JoeSomebody> hi, change partition is resize? and if so is it safe? i wanna cut win7 drive in half and install on second half
[19:17] <rypervenche> z999: You installed the grub boot loader to the USB probably.
[19:17] <z999> oh dammit. How did I do such a big mistake?
[19:17] <llutz> John_901: do what you like.
[19:17] <dazzel> i am making an automated script for cryptsetup luksFormat, thing is i am trying to make a nice frontend to get passphrases but it seems luksFormat does not accpet string or std inputs..
[19:17] <drag0nius> how do i need to set up samba so i can use it from windows 7?
[19:17] <reanimation911> ikonia: how? i right clicked everywhere and 'new' is grayed out...
[19:17] <Jordan_U> z999: sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
[19:17] <Zyewni> Ikonia, if I expand the extended partition, which currently holds the linux swap, my / and my /home,  by the unallocated 125GB, can I then chop it up there as two NTFS partitions, using one as an Ubuntu/Windows Share and the other to install Windows 8?
[19:18] <ikonia> reanimation911: you need to do it in the unallocated area
[19:18] <llutz> John_901: just keep in mind, that might be a security issue
[19:18] <i7c> hi, my ubuntu calculates the remaining battery time. unfortunately it is wrong by hours... any chance linux will "learn" my battery?
[19:18] <ikonia> Zyewni: what about it ?
[19:18] <dazzel> rypervenche, i tried everything.
[19:18] <Zyewni> Would that work?
[19:18] <z999> Jordan_u: I'll go ahead and do that, what does this command do?
[19:18] <Jordan_U> z999: That command will ask you a few questions. One of them will be which devices to install grub's boot sector to.
[19:18] <reanimation911> ikonia: ok yea it works there. but it says max size 2 MiB
[19:18] <caveman_> hello there
[19:19] <caveman_> :)
[19:19] <rypervenche> dazzel: What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[19:19] <Zyewni> Could I run Windows 8 out of the same primary partition as Ubuntu?
[19:19] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: I have a jailbroken iPhone 4s, idea is to chroot a Ubuntu system then use a vnc/ssh or some client to view the chroot system. The system on my iPhone doesn't allow for ext file systems only hfs.
[19:19] <dazzel> rypervenche, anyway that is not even the main problem, the main problem is that i would setup a secondary luks logical partition in the encrypted partition.
[19:19] <Zyewni> Sorry, not primary partition
[19:19] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: sorry, you can't do that on the iphone
[19:19] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: To be mounted
[19:19] <Zyewni> Extended
[19:19] <ikonia> Zyewni: not from the same partition
[19:19] <z999> joradn_u: ok thank you, I really love this channel, I always get an answer within minutes. Thank you very much.
[19:19] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: Why not?
[19:19] <Zyewni> Hmmm...
[19:20] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: it won't run on the A4
[19:20] <John_901> llutz: ok thanks for the advice. does > '%sudo   ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL' look right?
[19:20] <Jordan_U> z999: Keep the other settings at their default, use space bar to select/unselect a device from the list and hit Enter to continue.
[19:20] <Zyewni> ikonia: So really I'd need an entirely separate drive to install a 3rd OS?
[19:20] <ikonia> Zyewni: no, just a seperate partition
[19:20] <llutz> John_901: "man sudoers" see examples
[19:20] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: Not even arm based Ubuntu?
[19:20] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: no
[19:20] <Zyewni> The first three partitions are already being hogged by Win 7, and the extended partition is where my Ubuntu lives its happy life.
[19:20] <ShapeShifter499> ikonia: I still fail to see why
[19:20] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: then do it
[19:21] <ikonia> ShapeShifter499: and fail,
[19:21] <Mrokii> trism: Actually I tried to edit the "evolve"-theme that was mentioned as a good starting point in a short tutorial I found. But it seems that this one does use the Adwaita-engine.
[19:21] <dazzel> rypervenche, i am trying to let a new user setup his own private directory which will  be a separate encrypted logical partition that is encrypted for the second time using ecryptfs.
[19:21] <Jordan_U> z999: The device you want selected is your internal hard drive, like "sda", *not* a partition like "sda1".
[19:22] <WeberEInc1> OK - for anyone interested: A PDF file (with embedded fonts and a form) created on Windows will have some of their fonts substituted by Evince when the form is opened and filled out in Ubuntu.  Then, when Evince saves the file, it saves it with the substituded fonts that are not recognized back on Windows.  Converting the pdf file using ImageMagic re-builds the files with full headers which allows Windows to re-substitute the fonts. ... FYI...
[19:22] <dazzel> so cryptsetup luksFormat -L 1000 -n /dev/whatever /dev/location/of/volumegroup
[19:22] <reanimation911> ikonia: so do i just make it 2 MiB, create it as my pramary partition as a ext2 file system?
[19:22] <ikonia> reanimation911: no
[19:22] <digital_ownage> hello
[19:22] <ikonia> !install | reanimation911
[19:22] <z999> Jordan_U: ok, done. I'm restarting, going down and back up in a few minutes. Will keep you updated
[19:22] <digital_ownage> I have a little question
[19:22] <digital_ownage> I want to programm apps
[19:22] <ikonia> reanimation911: read that link it will give you an overview to the install process
[19:22] <digital_ownage> I know a little vb.net
[19:22] <digital_ownage> but what should I choose
[19:22] <dazzel> rypervenche, and then ecryptfs -u blabla (which is on /dev/whatever)
[19:22] <digital_ownage> vala or python?
[19:23] <drag0nius> any chance i could get some help setting up samba for sharing with windows?
[19:23] <ariana> digital_ownage, U should choose right book
[19:23] <reanimation911> ikonia: ok i'll see if it helps, thx :)
[19:23] <digital_ownage> Eh
[19:23] <digital_ownage> I know thenewboston makes epic python tutorials
[19:23] <digital_ownage> for vala I need to search :p
[19:24] <digital_ownage> But what one is better for making simple programms
[19:24] <z999> Jordan_u: thank you so much!  it worked!
[19:24] <dazzel> rypervenche, but cryptsetup does not accept strings or anyother std so i always have to pop-up an xterm screen with my script..i would rather not..
[19:25] <digital_ownage> I know a bit vb.net, but I want to learn a real language. Vala or Python?
[19:25] <bazhang> digital_ownage, wrong channel for that
[19:25] <digital_ownage> owh
[19:25] <digital_ownage> which one?
[19:25] <digital_ownage> valavspython xD?
[19:25] <maurizi0> Hi
[19:25] <bazhang> ##programming digital_ownage
[19:25] <digital_ownage> ok thanks
[19:25] <Mrokii> trism: I also have already installed the "gnome-themes-standard" package, though I don't see how that is helping, as that is what contains the Adwaita-Engine with a similar url in the css-file.
[19:25] <maurizi0> I need advise about upgrading the new nvidia driver 302.17: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates/
[19:26] <Zyewni> ikonia: here's my HD: sda1 PQSERVICE (NTFS) 20GB for Win 7; sda 2 SYSTEM RESERVED (NTFS) 100MB for Win 7; sda3 Windows 7 (NTFS) 270GB also (obviously) for Win 7; Unallocated 125GB; sda4 (50GB) contains /, /home, and linux-swap.
[19:26] <Zyewni> I'd like to add a Win 8 partition and a Linux Windows Share partition. Is there a way to do it?
[19:26] <bazhang> maurizi0, thats a PPA. it's not supported. use it at your own risk
[19:26] <dazzel> rypervenche, is it clear or is my explanation vague?
[19:26] <skise-mou> vote for the best muscle man (from powermen,muscle hunks and muscle gallery) please vote to all groups and pages thanks
[19:26] <skise-mou> http://bestmusclepowermen.blogspot.com/
[19:26] <bazhang> skise-mou, wrong channel
[19:27] <ikonia> Zyewni: if you have space, sure
[19:27] <maurizi0> bazhang, ok, so, how many days do I have to wait untill it comes official from Ubuntu packages?
[19:28] <Zyewni> ikonia: but if I can't run Windows 8 out of the extended partition where I have Ubuntu, where can I put it? The three primaries are all taken by Windows 7 stuff.
[19:28] <trism> Mrokii: I understand the issue now, if you have the unpacked theme (found the version for precise here: https://launchpad.net/~satyajit-happy/+archive/themes/+files/evolve-gtk-theme_2012.06.25-0~satya164~precise.tar.gz ) that file is just gtk-main.css in the base directory
[19:28] <bazhang> maurizi0, PPA are independent of ubuntu repositories, no timeline to give you on that
[19:28] <ikonia> Zyewni: you'll need to move data around
[19:29] <Mrokii> trism: Okay, I'll see if I can find that one. Thanks.
[19:29] <Zyewni> Is it safe to combine the PQSERVICE and SYSTEM RESERVED partitions?
[19:30] <maurizi0> bazhang, Because i have a little problem with my screen resolution: I try to fix it to 1080p and I cannot do it from the start. I have to manually set it every time I login to my Ubuntu account, 12.04 and 11.10, same problem with Nvidia driver 295.59. maybe I have to manually configure the xorg.conf file.
[19:30] <ikonia> Zyewni: no
[19:32] <Zyewni> ikonia: sorry, but I just don't understand then. You say it's possible if I move data around, but I don't see what I can move around that would let me create that a new partition.
[19:32] <ikonia> Zyewni: then you can't do it
[19:32] <Zyewni> Fair enough
[19:33] <kapz> each time I boot my lapto I get a dialogue asking to unlock my keyring with a message: the login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into...while my other identical setup does not ask for it...why
[19:34] <Zyewni> ikonia: could I safely put a working NTFS windows/linux share logical partition in the extended partition with Ubuntu?
[19:34] <ikonia> Zyewni: don't see why not
[19:34] <Mrokii> trism: Can you tell me what kind of file "gtk.resource" is? Zip or rar or some other packed file?
[19:34] <lapion> anyone know if grub is arch specific on intel ?
[19:34] <ikonia> lapion: what ?
[19:34] <sokay> Hello. I have been unable to find a solution to a problem when using xampp/lampp.   I would like to change my mpm module from prefork to worker
[19:35] <Zyewni> ikonia: Thanks for your help. Sorry if I was obnoxious :D
[19:35] <ikonia> Zyewni: not at all
[19:35] <lapion> can I boot amd64 from grub32 ?
[19:35] <KotBehemot> glitsj16: thx
[19:35] <lapion> can I boot amd64 from grub x86 ?
[19:35] <ikonia> lapion: "yes",
[19:36] <sokay> Is this possible under lampp?  I have found instructions for the base apache2 install but can not find anything for lampp
[19:36] <ikonia> lapion: depending on what exactly you are using, but the bottom line is "yes"
[19:36] <sobersabre> hi.
[19:36] <reanimation911> ikonia: NOTHINF -_- forget it, im just gonna erase everything and just install from scratch :/
[19:36] <ikonia> reanimation911: ok
[19:36] <reanimation911> NOTHING*
[19:36] <glitsj16> KotBehemot: no problem
[19:36] <sobersabre> What chipsets except ATI and nVidia are there for "consumer" level h/w accellerated graphic card?
[19:36] <lapion> I have a x86 grub installed and as soon as I load the amd64 kernel all partition information is lost
[19:36] <reanimation911> ikonia: thanks for the help though
[19:36] <ikonia> sobersabre: intel
[19:37] <ikonia> reanimation911: welcome
[19:37] <sobersabre> ikonia: I am currently on it and I'm suffering.
[19:37] <glitsj16> bye all
[19:37] <ikonia> lapion: that is impossible, it will not delete your partition table
[19:37] <reanimation911> quit
[19:37] <ikonia> sobersabre: that is the only other real option
[19:37] <lapion> ikonia, no not deleted just lost until reboot
[19:38] <sobersabre> (my main complain is X hogging the memory with growing footprint.)
[19:38] <ikonia> lapion: what OS have you installed ?
[19:38] <trism> Mrokii: I believe it is a special glib format, as I said, the /usr/bin/gresource command from libglib2.0-bin will allow you to list and extract files from it individually, but I haven't found any tool to extract the whole file at once
[19:38] <lapion> lubuntu
[19:38] <ikonia> lapion: what OS are you trying to boot ?
[19:38] <Mrokii> trism: ah, sorry, missed that info, but thanks, I'll take a look.
[19:39] <sobersabre> any considerations to ATI or to nVidia ?
[19:39] <lapion> lubuntu amd64
[19:39] <LmAt> My Linux installation keeps turning off the screen about every ten minutes.  I don't have X.  What should I do?
[19:39] <sobersabre> as of now...
[19:39] <lapion> the previous install was a ubuntu x86
[19:39] <LmAt> I'm running on Virtual Box.  I'm pretty sure VB doesn't have that setting in it.
[19:39] <dazzel> LmAt, buy a new monitor ;)
[19:39] <ikonia> lapion: when you installed lubuntu it should have updated grub
[19:39] <LmAt> dazzel: I doubt it's the monitor  since the monitor is virtual :)
[19:39] <lapion> ikonia, did not
[19:40] <ikonia> lapion: what is the error you get when you try to boot ?
[19:40] <lapion> ikonia, I have to commandline boot with x86 modules
[19:40] <dazzel> LmAt, has it some thing to do with the acpi drivers?
[19:40] <lapion> x86 grub modules
[19:40] <ikonia> lapion: right, so you know the 32bit install can boot it then, it stands to reason there is something wrong with your grub config
[19:40] <dazzel> LmAt, you could try boot with acpi=off
[19:41] <ikonia> lapion: I would suggest re-installing grub, or re-installing lubuntu and force the grub update (make sure it happens)
[19:41] <LmAt> dazzel: Is that in the grub kernel line?
[19:41] <dazzel> LmAt, yes. press shift while boot, then 'e' to edit your boot line
[19:41] <LmAt> dazzel: I use grub2.
[19:42] <dazzel> LmAt, and the 'x' to boot the new boot arguments
[19:42] <LmAt> dazzel: cool
[19:42] <lapion> ikonia, I wanted to do a manual grub-boot
[19:42] <ikonia> lapion: right, so configure grub properly then
[19:43] <dazzel> LmAt, it would only be cool if it works for you..it might be something completly different..
[19:44] <lapion> ikonia, got it
[19:44] <lapion> the instructions incorrectly made me set the prefix for grub as well
[19:45] <dazzel> LmAt, when i for used linux (i think red hat 4.1) i resseted always when i got a bluescreen, i later found out it was the screensaver in x! ;)
[19:45] <lapion> since the grub is x86 I should not have changed the grub directory prefix to that of the amd64 grub modules
[19:45] <lapion> ikonia, ?
[19:45] <ikonia> lapion: that seems reasonable
[19:45] <aaustin> Does anybody know where ubuntu installs eclipse.ini in the settings, and if this file is overwritten when ubuntu updates the package?
[19:45] <lapion> ikonia, it worked
[19:46] <dazzel> tip: if you want to make executables of your c shell scripts use: shc
[19:46] <kken> hello
[19:47] <aaustin> nevermind /etc/eclipse.ini
[19:47] <sirriffsalot> Supposing I installed another ubuntu version alongside another, but I am not given the options to choose between them, how do I make it do that again?:P
[19:47] <drag0nius> how do i set up samba so i could log into it with system's users?
[19:47] <OerHeks> sirriffsalot, hold left shift @ boot to enter grub menu
[19:47] <sirriffsalot> OerHeks, sure, but kinda tiring in the long run..:)
[19:48] <sirriffsalot> OerHeks, no more permanent solution?
[19:49] <OerHeks> sirriffsalot, you could set your choice as standard, i dunno if that still works after updating kernel.
[19:50] <SPYGAME> hey, apt-get python-django is not working. here's the shell output http://pastie.org/4150186

[19:50] <sirriffsalot> SPYGAME, sudo apt-get install ?:P
[19:51] <LmAt> Well, Let's see if it works.  If it does' I'll need to figure out how to apply it to my /etc/default/grub :)
[19:51] <OerHeks> sirriffsalot, that option should be in the manual
[19:51] <OerHeks> !grub2

[19:51] <JenniferB2> seriusly but I just want to start off by saying two things ( probably not so smart here if I want some help, but I am fucking frustrated): 1.  2.  I have been trying to install version 10.04 and 10.10 for several days and cant get past the initial black screen with different errors ... I have now burned over 5 cds and used more a usb with several versions .. it won
[19:51] <JenniferB2> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466946&page=2 ... now with 10.10 I am getting through the start of it because of some executable bit security bullshit... seriously  .. i remember ubuntu being buggy .. but if something takes days to install ... that is probably not a very good indicator for the future ..
[19:51] <FloodBot1> JenniferB2: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:52] <SPYGAME> sirriffsalot, alright, thanks
[19:52] <sirriffsalot> SPYGAME, no problem:P Gonna reboot and hold shift:P

[19:52] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  beside you, there are other children here too, who may be offended by such language
[19:53] <martinrame> hi, I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome Classic. I would like to configure it so, some applications can use the full screen. I.E., VirtualBox VMs. Currently the app window starts below Gnome toolbar.
[19:53] <JenniferB2> I dont think so monkeydust .. but I will
[19:53] <travisneids> I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 Server.  I have a client using a Windows File Share where they save Access Database files.  What would be the best approach to connect to the file share and run queries on the database?  VPN to file share, grab database dump?  Ugg.  Wish they had a web server.
[19:54] <JenniferB2> is it possible to run gnome 2 ( without hundred tweaks ) and ubuntu 12 ?
[19:54] <resno> travisneids: to me, vpn.
[19:54] <resno> travisneids: someone may have a smarter suggestion in#ubuntu-server if no onechimes in
[19:54] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  try fallback, it looks like gnome2
[19:54] <travisneids> resno: oh didn't realize there was ubuntu-server heh.  Thank you!
[19:56] <JenniferB2> @MonkeyDust ... i dont want to install something that will end up being a buggy environment .. i want to keep this installation for long ... what if you install ubuntu server edition 12 and then sudo apt-get install gnome something ?
[19:57] <sirriffsalot> OerHeks, uhm, my previous ubuntu install is not to be seen in the grub menu...:O
[19:57] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  it will be the same gnome
[19:57] <sirriffsalot> The files are all still there in the partition
[19:57] <JenniferB2> you cant specify version ?
[19:57] <sirriffsalot> OerHeks, but not in the MBR I guess?
[19:57] <Jordan_U> JenniferB2: XFCE is a very GNOME2 like DE, and they have no plans for radical redesigns any time soon.
[19:58] <JenniferB2> Jordan_U stable with U12 ? How about unity ? will that be present ?
[19:58] <OerHeks> sirriffsalot, then you did not side-by-side, check gdm at login.
[19:59] <Jordan_U> JenniferB2: XUbuntu 12.04 LTS does not come with Unity.
[19:59] <sirriffsalot> OerHeks, oh, lol, side-by-side is THAT close side by side?:D

[20:18] <guntbert> thothstriangle: you are making me confused - I cannot understand your problem at all - sorry
[20:18] <JenniferB2> well.. I have downloaded it as a torrent .. so it should be valid .. then I used the usb installer to "move it"
[20:18] <ikonia> JenniferB2: sounds like it failed to move correctly
[20:19] <thothstriangle> guntbert:  well ok then it will come when the time is right
[20:19] <andy8856> the windows 8 certification is a a waste
[20:19] <JenniferB2> ikonia: well, I have had this issue numerous times
[20:19] <ikonia> JenniferB2: I'm sure you have
[20:19] <JenniferB2> with 10.04 as well
[20:19] <guntbert> andy8856: keep to ubuntu support here please
[20:19] <ikonia> JenniferB2: ok - you need to get me the exact info, as the forum post is nothing like the situation you are describing
[20:19] <JenniferB2> ok, but perhaps I am choosing the wrong version .. in the usb installer
[20:20] <OerHeks> sirriffsalot, i dunno, any 'old' ubuntu should be seen in grub2.
[20:20] <JenniferB2> ikonia: the next step is the forum post like issue
[20:20] <ikonia> JenniferB2: I'm sorry, I don't accept that
[20:20] <sirriffsalot> OerHeks, the hell..:S
[20:20] <ikonia> JenniferB2: I don't believe you are providing accurate information at this time.
[20:20] <JenniferB2> "your cpu appears to be lacking expected security protections ... bla bla .. Please check bios ... "
[20:20] <ikonia> JenniferB2: ok, that is normally a bios setting
[20:20] <JenniferB2> yes.. but I do not have that bios setting
[20:21] <JenniferB2> at least not that I am aware of
[20:21] <ikonia> JenniferB2: ok, so that maybe a limitation of your motherboard/bios
[20:21] <ikonia> JenniferB2: you need to research that and check it
[20:21] <linsys> Anyone? Besides -y what other way can I get apt-get to not promopt for configuration information?
[20:21] <ikonia> JenniferB2: the setting is "NX" protection
[20:23] <genii-around> linsys: Make an /etc/apt/apt.conf file and put whatever you want as the defaults for it in there. apt-config dump   will show you the list of things you could set in there if you want.
[20:23] <drag0nius> anything i do on samba server in win7 i have denied permissions
[20:23] <drag0nius> even though i logged in
[20:24] <ikonia> drag0nius: I suspect you have not created the "samba" usernames/passwords correctly
[20:24] <JenniferB2> okej, I googled it and found it ... altered it .. and now I am not getting that error but for some reason I just have a terminal
[20:24] <ikonia> drag0nius: and you are relaying on the ubuntu/windows usernames/passwords
[20:24] <ikonia> JenniferB2: I suspect your install media is messed up as I said earlier
[20:24] <drag0nius> they're supposed to be synchronized
[20:24] <ikonia> drag0nius: not really
[20:24] <drag0nius> even if not i added em manually
[20:24] <ikonia> drag0nius: it depends were/how you have told it to authenticate
[20:25] <genii-around> linsys: man apt.conf for syntax of how to add entries
[20:25] <drag0nius> i managed to get asked on entering folder
[20:25] <ikonia> drag0nius: being prompted is not the same as sucessfully authenticating correclty
[20:25] <drag0nius> im authenticated in net use
[20:25] <drag0nius> and can go into folder
[20:25] <ikonia> drag0nius: you're not
[20:25] <ikonia> drag0nius: as you can't write
[20:25] <JenniferB2> ikonia: it is ubuntu-10.10-beta-desktop-amd64.iso    from http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/10.10/
[20:25] <ikonia> drag0nius: so either a.) your permissions are wrong b.) your not authenticated
[20:25] <drag0nius> then how to actually check if im logged in?
[20:26] <ikonia> JenniferB2: you are messing me around, you said you had torrented it 5 minutes ago
[20:26] <ikonia> JenniferB2: now you are saying you downloaded it from old-releases.ubuntu.com
[20:27] <BobMarley_> excuse-me but i lost the internet connection
[20:27] <BobMarley_>  i would like to know what u think about the windows 8 certification?
[20:27] <linsys> genii-around: I just put it in puppet.. I didn't want to wait
[20:27] <ikonia> JenniferB2: you also appear to be saying you are using debian in #debian
[20:27] <ikonia> JenniferB2: I don't believe you are giving truthful/accurate information
[20:28] <MonkeyDust> BobMarley_  ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:28] <JenniferB2> ikonia: no, in debian .. i am asking to figure out if I should drop ubuntu .. but not sure
[20:28] <JenniferB2> ikonia: I am
[20:28] <h00k> BobMarley_: you can talk about Windows in ##windows
[20:29] <ikonia> JenniferB2: bottom line is you need a sane install source,
[20:29] <ikonia> JenniferB2: get one
[20:29] <ikonia> burn it to a CD - install
[20:29] <BobMarley> (xchat-gnome:3924): Gdk-CRITICAL **: _gdk_pixmap_new: assertion `(width != 0) && (height != 0)' failed
[20:29] <BobMarley> Segmentation fault
[20:30] <BobMarley> thats is what i get when the xchat crashes
[20:31] <BobMarley__> (xchat-gnome:3924): Gdk-CRITICAL **: _gdk_pixmap_new: assertion `(width != 0) && (height != 0)' failed
[20:31] <BobMarley__>  Segmentation fault
[20:31] <BobMarley__>  thats is what i get when the xchat crashes
[20:31] <usr13> ikonia: You think CD is more reliable than USB install?
[20:31] <strange> hey guys my keyboard stopped working today under ubuntu works fine on other os but in ubuntui cant even turn num lock light on/off
[20:31] <FriedPet> I've installed 12.04 sometime last week. I had trouble with the livecd, so tried it with a USB disk which also gave me problems - i eventually managed to install by using "nomodeset". did a few updated and rebooted the system. now it doesn't want to load ubuntu - at first it gave me a purple/black screen right after GRUB, but the next boot gives me this: http://i48.tinypic.com/28upbux.jpg and that number changes with every restart.
[20:32] <matreya6> !ot | BobMarley_
[20:32] <ikonia> usr13: I think the process of burning a CD is compared to transfering the iso to usb
[20:32] <usr13> ikonia: I don't think there's a difference.  I've done both and I prefer USB
[20:33] <ikonia> usr13: good for you
[20:33] <usr13> but just because USB is quicker and easier.
[20:34] <sirriffsalot> What's that program that configures grub from a gui?
[20:35] <imark> i believe its just called startup manager
[20:35] <matreya6> sirriffsalot, it's called grubconf
[20:35] <drag0nius> can i change owner of the folder?
[20:35] <drag0nius> so its not root, but one of users?
[20:36] <morsnowski> i've 12.04 running on two screens just nicely, niow o itried to use vlc and it doesn't give me the full screen it appears as if the right hand side of the screen is just black. almost as if wasn't seen y vlc? . anybody ever seen this?
[20:36] <sirriffsalot> matreya6, cheers
[20:36] <morsnowski> where do these letters come from :O
[20:36] <sirriffsalot> matreya6, any idea why I can't find it in synaptic?
[20:37] <matreya6> http://grubconf.sourceforge.net/
[20:37] <morsnowski> same with totem btw
[20:37] <i7c> weird thing: if i turn off bluetooth my wifi dies also..!?
[20:37] <matreya6> sirriffsalot, probably because you'll need an extra repo or PPA that includes this tool
[20:38] <morsnowski> an the second screen it works just fine
[20:38] <sirriffsalot> matreya6, I'll just get it from the webpage, cheers:)
[20:38] <niklasfi> hey, i have the problem that mpd tells me it is playing music, but i can't hear anything. what should i do?
[20:39] <matreya6> sirriffsalot, sorry for the noise, it seems that thi project has been abandoned long ago.
[20:39] <Robert_Qian> 66
[20:39] <usr13> niklasfi: alsamixer #See that volume is turned up and nothing is muted.
[20:39] <i7c> niklasfi: see if the outputs of mpd are configured correctly
[20:39] <Robert_Qian> can anybody see what I typed?
[20:40] <aaustin> Robert_Qian, sure
[20:40] <i7c> Robert_Qian: yes :D
[20:40] <Robert_Qian> thanks
[20:40] <sirriffsalot> matreya6, no problem
[20:40] <niklasfi> usr13: i checked that weirdly the progress bar moves way to fast in ncmpc as well
[20:40] <JenniferB2> ikonia: Why isn't usb versions offered on the ubuntu site anyway? why do we have to "convert" them ourselfs ?
[20:41] <giota> ervthsh?
[20:41] <JenniferB2> and use a third party program
[20:41] <ikonia> JenniferB2: what is a usb format ?
[20:41] <giota> na kanw mia erwtisi?????
[20:41] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  the .iso can be burned on cd or used on usb stick
[20:41] <ikonia> JenniferB2: what is a usb format ?
[20:41] <JenniferB2> ikonia: usb installer images duh
[20:41] <ikonia> JenniferB2: what is a usb installer image ?
[20:41] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  it's the same .iso
[20:42] <Myrtti> !gr | giota
[20:42] <JenniferB2> MonkeyDust: but you cant just drop it on the usb ? or extract it .. will that work ?
[20:42] <ikonia> JenniferB2: the usb disk is just a disk
[20:42] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  use unetbootin
[20:42] <antonio_> i need ubuntu.it
[20:42] <ikonia> JenniferB2: you need to uncompress it and position it the same as you would to a hard disk
[20:42] <MonkeyDust> antonio_  type /j#ubuntu-it
[20:42] <MonkeyDust> antonio_  type /j #ubuntu-it
[20:42] <ikonia> JenniferB2: hence why there is no such thing as a usb install image
[20:43] <antonio_> tthanks
[20:43] <Spectacle_K> Does anyone know how to completely remove a font from the computer? I've tried just deleting the font from the font directory in home but it still shows up in LibreOffice.
[20:43] <sirriffsalot> I installed ubuntu studio 12.04 alongside ubuntu 12.04 but in the grub loader I can't access the old one, but the partition is still there:( What's going on?
[20:44] <JenniferB2> ikonia: well.. what ever files end up on the usb .. the same files could be zipped and provided on the site
[20:44] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: define can't access
[20:44] <ikonia> JenniferB2: no they couldn't, hence why they don't
[20:44] <JenniferB2> ikonia: so a user just need to unzip it there
[20:44] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, can't login to it in any way, but the files are still in the same partition as always
[20:44] <ikonia> JenniferB2: you need a tool
[20:44] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: does it boot ?
[20:44] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, grub only shows options for ubuntu studio
[20:44] <h00k> JenniferB2: to create a persistent file if required, and to make it bootable.
[20:44] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, no, not at all
[20:44] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: right, so you need to update grub to have the second option
[20:45] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  do you want to install *on* a usb stick, or *from* a usb stick?
[20:45] <Jordan_U> JenniferB2: For BIOS based booting you need a boot sector, among other things, for the drive to be bootable. Just extracting files to a filesystem is never enough.
[20:45] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, isn't there some way of making a new grub bootloader that takes into account both OS?
[20:45] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: the sad truth is grub2 is not a good option to be able to boot 2 linux distros
[20:45] <JenniferB2> MonkeyDust: from a usb stick
[20:45] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: yes, you need to update grub's config and run the update-grub command
[20:45] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, well I've been always been able to before:D
[20:45] <JenniferB2> Jordan_U: ok, thanks for the lesson
[20:45] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, alright, what do I do?
[20:45] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, and why did this not happen automatically?
[20:45] <Spectacle_K> How do I uninstall a font from my computer?
[20:45] <MonkeyDust> JenniferB2  ok, then use unetbootin to put the iso on the usb stick, boot from usb, install
[20:45] <fallenangel> looking for a little help. i installed 12.04 and i seem to be having some scrolling issues. depending on my window i have to scroll the other way. down for up and up for down. Im using a touchpad on my laptop. i can't find a setting for it and can't seem to work out what is the same between the windows that seem to flip the scroll direction. any ideas ?
[20:45] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: update the grub config in your host system in then run update grub
[20:46] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, how?:$
[20:46] <ikonia> sirriffsalot: it didn't happen automatically as I've just said, it's not the best tool to dual boot linux systems any more
[20:46] <FriedPet> what does this error screen mean: http://i48.tinypic.com/28upbux.jpg
[20:46] <sirriffsalot> ikonia, hmm, ok
[20:47] <Jordan_U> ikonia: sirriffsalot: While it's true that grub2's default behavior with other OSs is not ideal, it can be fairly easily configured to work well. See: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Multi_002dboot-manual-config and note that you don't really need a separate grub partition, you can simply designate one OS as the "controlling" OS, and add menu entries for the others to /boot/grub/custom.cfg .
[20:47] <ikonia> Jordan_U: totally agree on that,
[20:47] <ikonia> Jordan_U: wasn't saying it can't be done, it's just a different approach to how it used to
[20:47] <Jordan_U> ikonia: sirriffsalot: s#other OSs#other GNU/Linux OSs#
[20:47] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, eh?
[20:48] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, dear god I don't have time to understand all of this lol:D Is there really no easier way?:S
[20:49] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Could you give a quick recap of what you're trying to do / what problem you're having?
[20:50] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U,  I installed ubuntu studio 12.04 alongside ubuntu 12.04 but in the grub loader I can't access the old one, but the partition is still there:( What's going on?
[20:51] <fallenangel> looking for a little help. i installed 12.04 and i seem to be having some scrolling issues. depending on my window i have to scroll the other way. down for up and up for down. Im using a touchpad on my laptop. i can't find a setting for it and can't seem to work out what is the same between the windows that seem to flip the scroll direction. any ideas ?
[20:51] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: So you're currently booted into Ubuntu Studio? If so, please run "sudo os-prober" and tell me the output.
[20:52] <sirriffsalot> Uuu
[20:52] <sirriffsalot> Are you a developer?
[20:52] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, uhm, no output at all
[20:52] <sirriffsalot> Just a new :~$ line
[20:53] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, this is bad.. right?
[20:53] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Normally it would list your other Ubuntu install. Could you run boot info script and pastebin the RESULTS.txt which it produces (ubottu will give you instructions for doing this).
[20:53] <i7c> weird thing: if i turn off bluetooth my wifi dies also..!?
[20:53] <strange> hello guys my keyboard doesnt work right of hte bat after boot it works in other OS tried ps2 and usb keyboard both just freeze cant turn on/off caps lock light or anything mouse does work and i can access the box through ssh. any suggestions?
[20:53] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | sirriffsalot
[20:54] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Well, something's not working properly. I'm sure that we can get it working though (as long as you really still do have that other Ubuntu partition).
[20:55] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, alright, hang on
[20:56] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, there you go http://pastebin.com/GUaJqhia
[20:57] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, I sure do:)
[20:58] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, the previous ubuntu install is at /dev/sda6
[20:58] <Spectacle_K> I installed a font by mistake (it was the wrong font) and now I want to get rid of it so I can install the right font under the same name. How do I completely remove this font?
[20:59] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: You have two ext2 partitions, and 3 ext3 partitions, but only one partition containing a /etc/fstab. Can you explain why /dev/sda6 appears to not have a /etc/fstab (which any GNU/Linux install should have in its root filesystem)?
[21:00] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Wouldn't it just overwrite the old font if you'd install the new, correct font if it's the same name (and presumably filename)?
[21:01] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, I have no clue.. I probably installed wrong when I partitioned things around..
[21:01] <Spectacle_K> I guess... but still in the future if I ever want to remove a font how would I do that? Because just deleting them out of the .font directory in home doesn't seem to do it?
[21:02] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, so do we sort this out or am I screwed?:D
[21:02] <i7c> what do i have to do to disable bluetooth completely?
[21:03] <Spectacle_K> Mrokii: Do you know how to uninstall a font from Ubuntu, is it as simple as deleting it from the home folder's '.font' directory? I remember trying it that way before and the font still showed up in LibreOffice.
[21:03] <i7c> uninstall a package or something?
[21:04] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: I don't know, sorry. I only remember that I read a text a long time ago, saying that it's a mess because there is more than one folder in which fonts are.
[21:04] <b_> Spectacle_K, /usr/share/fonts ?
[21:04] <theodore> how do you reinstall ubuntu without any external media?
[21:04] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: How did you install the font, btw?
[21:04] <Zubin> how to install a usb modem in Xubuntu?
[21:04] <theodore> i'm trying to sell this laptop before the next hour
[21:04] <theodore> need to wipe all my files
[21:04] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, come on, we're so close!!:D
[21:04] <Spectacle_K> Well, I double-click it usually and press 'install'. If there's a mass of fonts I want to install I unhide the .font folder in home and drag and drop the fonts there. Works the same way. That's the only place the installed fonts are.
[21:04] <morten> hello, is there really no way to access a pubkey protected SSH server with the Pangolin Nautilus app?
[21:05] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Can you pastebin the output of "ls /media/7d60beb5-f612-4d87-a451-e39e61ef2cb0"? It will contain a list of all of the files in the top level of the filesystem, so if you have any filenames that you don't want public check the output before posting it.
[21:05] <OerHeks> theodore, install fresh the same way you installed before.
[21:05] <theodore> i have no USB's
[21:05] <theodore> isn't there a way to do it via inside the operating system?
[21:05] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, well what are you after?
[21:05] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Maybe this will be of help: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts
[21:06] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: I want to get an idea of what really is in that partition.
[21:06] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, the output is: "backup  lost+found  sirriffsalot"
[21:07] <Spectacle_K> Mrokii: This tells me everything except HOW to uninstall the font. I don't think it'll be much help. :/
[21:07] <Jordan_U> theodore: The easiest way is to boot the netboot installer image (which you *don't* need to actually netboot, you can load it from the HD normally using grub) and do a standard install. It will grab everything from the internet, so it will likely take longer than an hour to finish.
[21:07] <Zubin> how to install a usb modem in Xubuntu?
[21:07] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Further down on that site are several locations mentioned where fonts could be and how to update the font cache.
[21:07] <OerHeks> theodore, maybe you can mount an iso to grub, but that needs its own space.
[21:08] <Zubin> how to install a usb modem in Xubuntu?
[21:08] <morten> hello, is there really no way to access a pubkey protected SSH server with the Pangolin Nautilus app?
[21:09] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Well, that partition certainly doesn't contain an Ubuntu installation then.
[21:09] <Zubin> how to install a usb modem in Xubuntu?
[21:09] <h00k> !patience | Zubin
[21:10] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, it did:O
[21:10] <sirriffsalot> The hell..
[21:10] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Bottom line, for whatever reason, you only currently have one Ubuntu installation.
[21:10] <Spectacle_K> Mrokii: Yes, I see that... but from what I'm reading... it's not telling me how to remove the fonts from the system.
[21:10] <Spectacle_K> I mean, do I just delete them from the folder and update the cache... oh wait...
[21:10] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, that can't be:S How do we fix this?
[21:10] <Spectacle_K> Is that how I do it?
[21:10] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, is there no way?:P
[21:10] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: sure.
[21:10] <morten> Zubin, it really depends on the modem. Some don't require installation, others need software.
[21:10] <b_> Spectacle_K, its a file manager job + update the cache
[21:10] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Are you sure that it wasn't just a separate /home partition?
[21:11] <b_> right
[21:11] <sirriffsalot> No, the one I installed ubuntu studio on was a seperate partition meant for storing stuff on
[21:11] <sirriffsalot> /dev/sda3 was the ubuntu 12.04 install
[21:11] <Spectacle_K> Don't get me wrong when I say this, I love Ubuntu it's the best system I've ever used... but it's supposed to be more simple than this. In other OSes you just go to the font folder and delete it. Here you need to write codes into the Terminal.
[21:11] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Then can you mount /dev/sda3 and tell me what files are there?
[21:12] <Zubin> mine is a micromax 3g usb modem. I installed it in ubuntu by changing the modules folder and loaded the modules but in xubuntu i cant change the folder.
[21:12] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, for some reason my filebrowser crashes when I try to open the partition, hang on
[21:12] <Spectacle_K> Two more questions: Does Ubuntu accept .otf fonts? And how come I can't install certain .ttf fonts on Ubuntu?
[21:12] <niklasfi> when i run  sudo -s -u user why do i get "bash: /home/niklas/.bashrc: permission denied?"
[21:13] <morten> Zubin, what do you mean by changing the modules folder?
[21:13] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Delete the font and update the font cache. That should do it.
[21:13] <Spectacle_K> Mrokii: OK, I will. Does Ubuntu accept .otf fonts?
[21:14] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, ok this is strange.. the "421 GB Filesystem" that is /dev/sda3 can't be opened through the desktop.. I have to go via the filesystem
[21:14] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: I think it should.
[21:14] <Zubin> i just edited and made my own modules using gedit.
[21:14] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, well anyway, I did list what files were there a moment ago... backup  lost+found  sirriffsalot are the only things there:S
[21:14] <sirriffsalot> OOOH
[21:15] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, I setup my boot and root stuff differently
[21:15] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, does that matter?
[21:15] <Spectacle_K> Last question Mrokii: How come I can't install certain fonts in Ubuntu, they always come up as 'installation failed'.
[21:15] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Differently from what?
[21:15] <sirriffsalot> I'll show you, hang on
[21:15] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Sorry, I'm not that much of an expert. How do you try to install these fonts, btw?
[21:15] <Yago> Hello
[21:16] <Yago> I need help setuping up Ubuntu
[21:16] <Spectacle_K> Either through font viewer (double-click font and click the 'install button) or if it's a mass of fonts I drag and drop them into the .font folder in the home directory.
[21:16] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, ups, /dev/sda6 is where my ubuntu install was:P Anyway, putting a screenshot up of gparted so you can see
[21:16] <Spectacle_K> But the ones that fail to install I've double-clicked and tried to install with the button in the font viewer.
[21:17] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, http://picpaste.com/51_PM-yV6X5gOz.png
[21:18] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Sorry, no clue why the installation could fail.
[21:18] <Spectacle_K> OK thanks.
[21:18] <Mrokii> Spectacle_K: Maybe see if you can find the font in a different format and retry.
[21:19] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, does that make things more obvious?:P
[21:19] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: So the only partition which you're not using in your current installation is sda6, which we've already determined does not contain an Ubuntu installation. If you want another Ubuntu installation you'll need to install Ubuntu again.
[21:20] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, how can that be? The install was there without a shadow of doubt:S:S
[21:20] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, is the boot partition or root partition playing any part here?
[21:20] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Maybe you didn't have any doubt, but that doesn't mean your weren't still wrong.
[21:21] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, when you have the option to "install ubuntu studio alongside ubuntu 12.04 LTS" it's pretty obvious that there was something there before:D
[21:21] <Spectacle_K> Mrokii: THANKS! The font remove method worked! Thank you so much.
[21:23] <Mrokii> spacebug-: you're welcome. :)
[21:24] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Did you actually use that option, or did you just see it? I'm assuming that you used the manual partitioning option instead, is that correct?
[21:24] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, yes..
[21:24] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, did not format or touch /dev/sda3 or /dev/sda6 in any way though..
[21:25] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, I can't imagine that the entire install is just gone
[21:26] <Jkessler> I installed some software yesterday and now my Brosix client crashes when I try to start it giving error "Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x40801) with this library (version 0x40800)"  any ideas?  Thanks.
[21:26] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: I think you were mistaken that /dev/sda6 contained your root partition. I think that it contained your /home/, and you accidentily overwrote your actual root partition. That's still pretty good news though if it's correct, because all of your really valuable data was probably in your /home/, which is still intact.
[21:27] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, nono, /dev/sda6 was my home partition, /dev/sda2 as you can see in the screenshot is root
[21:27] <codepimp> right

[21:28] <jihedamine> Hi. Unity dash's search field keeps the last typed query. Is there a way to have it reset each time it is called
[21:29] <supertux> dslé je suis un petit nouveau dans le mon de linux
[21:29] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: OK, so you know that /dev/sda6 was only your /home/ partition, which means that it didn't have most of your old "Ubuntu installation". So where do you expect your old Ubuntu installation to be?
[21:29] <Jordan_U> !fr | supertux
[21:29] <supertux> insttall new version where is your prob????
[21:30] <supertux> jean-maurice est partis
[21:30] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, no clue.. where would the install be?:S:S
[21:30] <niargh> fresh install of 12.04 server amd64 on dell dimension c521 - boots fine until it tries to switch to some graphic mode and then console hangs - but can still ssh to machine - how can I completely disable any graphic stuff and get a simple cli?
[21:30] <supertux> jean cule est partis heu jean-luc
[21:31] <Jordan_U> sirriffsalot: Nowhere. It looks to me like your old root partition was on one of sda1, sda2, sda7, or sda8. All of which you're using in your new installation currently so it was probably overwritten.
[21:32] <pretender> installed peer guardian linux on 12.04 but it seems to be blocking all internet cant even access google.com   How can i fix this
[21:32] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
[21:32] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, lol, you're right
[21:33] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, I formated the root partition /dev/sda2

[21:37] <Myrtti> supertux: hi?
[21:38] <k1l> !fr | supertux
[21:38] <Myrtti> codepimp: unlikely that it will be included, most irssi users go to the irssi theme page and get them there. Debian doesn't have a package for themes either.
[21:38] <teej_m> I'm getting a bunch of "possible SYN flooding" messages in my syslog for my game's app server.  I'm not getting SYN flooded.  What does this mean?

[21:40] <sirriffsalot> I wonder, is it possible to have a different wallpaper on the different desktops I have?
[21:40] <lapion> nope that's an easy problem just turn off hw acceleration
[21:40] <codepimp> Myrtti: true. Debian does have the irssi-scripts in the repos though. Don't like putting anything on my system that is not signed. BTW I am on Debian now Linux zion 3.2.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jun 11 17:24:18 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[21:48] <_SEQ> hi all
[21:52] <lyle> after a recent update ubuntu has started going into hibernation after a while of video-intensive activities
[21:52] <lyle> has anybody run into this problem?
[21:52] <_SEQ> no idea
[21:52] <_SEQ> sorry
[21:52] <auronandace> lyle: sounds like overheating
[21:52] <lyle> i have all my power settings set to "don't do anything," and i've had the problem in both ubuntu 2d and gnome 3
[21:53] <k1l> lyle: maybe some overheating problems?
[21:53] <lyle> k1l auronandace, does ubuntu hibernate when overheating?
[21:53] <k1l> take a look at the logs (dmesg, syslog)
[21:53] <k1l> lyle: i dont know what the mainboards emergency plan is
[21:54] <auronandace> lyle: in my experience it only shuts down (i've never used suspend or hibernate)
[21:54] <lyle> oh, like it's sending a signal from the mobo
[21:54] <lyle> i never use them either really
[21:54] <lyle> i'm on a macbook pro, and it does get incredibly hot
[21:54] <lyle> MBPs are garbage by the way, if anybody's interested
[21:55] <ubuntu_> hi all
[21:55] <_SEQ> hi ubuntu
[21:57] <teej_m> Ubuntu is closing my TCP connections randomly.  How do I stop it?
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> teej_m  wireless?
[21:57] <sirriffsalot> Jordan_U, ?:)
[21:57] <teej_m> Inbound TCP connections on a server
[21:58] <MonkeyDust> teej_m  start from the beginning
[21:59] <teej_m> I have a game.  I've got ~10,000 game clients trying to connect to my game server.  They are SSL connections.  They hit a single server, the SSL is decrypted with stud, the packet is sent to HAProxy which distributes it to one of 10 app servers
[21:59] <teej_m> all of that is working.
[21:59] <teej_m> My clients connect to the app servers and can talk just fine.
[21:59] <manzoor> can any one pls tell is there any command to  get number of days  in a month..??
[22:00] <lyle> thx guys, i'll see if i can do something about airflow or something
[22:00] <teej_m> But after 10-90 seconds, the client gets a "connection closed".
[22:00] <arie> vidit my site www.devilzc0de.org/forum
[22:00] <lyle> teej_m: have you checked haproxy?
[22:00] <omegalimit> manzoor: could type "cal 07 2012" for example for july this year in terminal
[22:01] <auronandace> arie: no advertising
[22:01] <lyle> i haven't used it for long connections
[22:01] <arie> it's a forum programmer
[22:01] <lyle> teej_m: like do you notice this problem if you turn off the proxy and just point at a single server
[22:02] <teej_m> lyle: thats a possibility.  I don't have HAProxy logging turned on.  I'll turn on logging.  I'll also see if I have the problem if I remove HAProxy
[22:03] <manzoor> omegalimit, yup that will display the whole calender but i just need the count not the whole calender of the month.
[22:03] <omegalimit> manzoor: ah, dunno
[22:04] <_raven> where can i find the MINI.ISO for XUbuntu 12.04
[22:04] <manzoor> omegalimit, its okei,  thanx
[22:04] <auronandace> _raven: mini.iso is just that, they don't come with desktop environments

[22:12] <reanimation911> Can anybody help?? After installing 12.04 after restart it boots into a comnmand line instead of the login screen..
[22:12] <manzoor> reanimation911, might be because of ur runlevel
[22:12] <giveblood> reanimation911: it probably tries to, but its failing because of the xinit error.  you'll have to find out from some logs what that error is
[22:13] <reanimation911> manzoor: details? idk
[22:14] <reanimation911> giveblood: how can i get logs? would it help to run recovery mode?
[22:14] <usr13> reanimation911: Look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[22:15] <usr13> reanimation911: Shift-PageUp a ways and look for clues.
[22:16] <reanimation911> agoodm: he lol and ok
[22:16] <agoodm> interesting, can you use that on the ordinary text only terminal to scroll up? i may have learnt something new :D
[22:16] <reanimation911> usr13: alright ill give it a shot
[22:17] <usr13> reanimation911: Yea, as agoodm says, you can do   less /var/log/Xorg.0.log  and then do Shift-g  to go to the end.
[22:17] <reanimation911> usr13: and what am i looking for?
[22:17] <agoodm> usr13, yeah im aware of that, didnt know you could scroll up in a init 3 level terminal though
[22:17] <agoodm> learn new stuff every day :D
[22:18] <usr13> agoodm: Ot
[22:18] <usr13> agoodm: Ot
[22:18] <usr13> agoodm: it's a console mode not init 3
[22:19] <usr13> agoodm: dissregard the Ot, was typo.  Had my fingers on the wrong keys, thought it was the computer at first.

[22:26] <agoodm> loostro, please describe the issue

[22:26] <reanimation911> usr13: having to RS, ill tell u now
[22:27] <loostro> then i choose Pakiet (package) -> Wymus wersje (force version)
[22:27] <loostro> and choose 5.3.5-ubuntu(natty)
[22:28] <loostro> sorry, it is 5.3.5-ubuntu7(natty)
[22:28] <loostro> i confirm and click "apply changes" so i expect my php to reinstall
[22:28] <loostro> but i get error
[22:28] <agoodm> loostro, what are you trying to achieve; what is the error?
[22:29] <usr13> reanimation911: I'm assuming it is a fresh install.  Right?  I would also assume that updates have yet to be done.  Right?  Try just doing updates:  sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:29] <loostro> E: Cannot repair problems. Damaged packets werse stopped
[22:29] <reanimation911> usr13: NVIDIA Corporation G73 [GeForce Go 7600] (rev all)

[22:29] <loostro> what im trying to achieve is:
[22:29] <reanimation911> usr13: yes and yes
[22:29] <loostro> i have a PHP 5.2 working server.. my new website requers php 5.3
[22:30] <usr13> reanimation911: Do updates and then let us know if you still have problems.
[22:30] <loostro> i want to upgrade to PHP 5.3 but keep my configs
[22:30] <agoodm> loostro, ok, which version of ubuntu?
[22:30] <reanimation911> usr13: ok thx...person. haha
[22:31] <loostro> i had 10.10 until now
[22:31] <linguini> So, it turns out my family's ubuntu machine was probably turning off because the CPU was overheating.  After opening the case, we found that the CPU fan was dangling, detached from the CPU because the plastic mounting lug had broken.
[22:31] <loostro> today i upgraded to 11.04
[22:32] <haz3lnut> Anyone want to help me with my front audio input?
[22:32] <nibbier> linguini, ah, good to hear ;-)
[22:32] <agoodm> linguini, had this happen to a clients server recently, had to super glue the bracket back together and its still holding :D
[22:32] <linguini> agoodm: Ah!  Good to know; I thought super glue might not work...
[22:33] <haz3lnut> In sound settings, I can see the level indicator moving with input, but I can;t hear any sound.  Any ideas?
[22:33] <agoodm> linguini, I had to let it dry overnight as the first time I tried to fit the hsf it broke back offl; I was lucky the small piece of plastic was still inside the server
[22:33] <nibbier> haz3lnut, thats ok, its not meant to be looped to your speakers. try to skype etc
[22:34] <agoodm> loostro, you're stuck between a rock and a hard place...
[22:34] <linguini> I wish we could simply buy a new CPU mounting lug; it looks like it is a replaceable component...
[22:35] <loostro> what can i do? upgrade ubuntu to 11.10 would change anything?
[22:35] <agoodm> loostro, i guess you're trying to use php from some unsupported repository and it sounds like its conflicting with ubuntu somehow...
[22:35] <loostro> i can do that, if that helps
[22:35] <haz3lnut> nibbier: I get it.  it's intended for mic only.  can I loop it?  I plugged my phone into it and want to hear the sound.
[22:35] <reanimation911> usr13: ok ran the updates and it said - E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
[22:35] <agoodm> loostro, let me check what version of php is in 12.04lts...
[22:35] <nibbier> haz3lnut, don't try without a headphone. its audiomanager, just look for the output selectors something
[22:36] <loostro> agoodm: is there any way to uninstall PHP (and all its dependencies) without loosing configs?
[22:36] <reanimation911> usr13: ran that and then it says - Setting up nautilus dropbox
[22:37] <usr13> reanimation911: okeydokey,  keep up the good work.
[22:37] <agoodm> loostro, if you dont use the completely remove option the configs should be left in place
[22:37] <loostro> agoodm: if so, i would (1) uninstall PHP 5.2 + all deps (2) clear package sources list/reset to default (3) install php 5.3 from official sources
[22:37] <agoodm> loostro, but make a backup just in case
[22:37] <reanimation911> usr13: it says Downloading Dropbox...99% but stays stuck there
[22:37] <agoodm> loostro, easiest / safest way might be to upgrade to 12.04 it comes with 5.3
[22:38] <loostro> ok i will try first upgradeing
[22:38] <usr13> reanimation911: Patience is a virtue
[22:38] <tomvolek> Hi all, I have  a cron job entry to back up some directiries, everything was workign fine, all of a sudden this cron doesnt run anymore and thigns are not getting backup. there is plenty of alce on the partition.

[22:39] <usr13> reanimation911: The "last time"?
[22:39] <usr13> reanimation911: When was that?  *(You did all this b4?)
[22:40] <usr13> reanimation911: Try this:  sudo apt-get -f install
[22:40] <reanimation911> usr13: yea i already ran the --cofigure -a command before (been trying things for about an hour)
[22:40] <haz3lnut> nibbier: I can;t find an audiomanager is it named something else?
[22:40] <usr13> reanimation911:   sudo apt-get -f install
[22:40] <reanimation911> usr13: ok let me RS cuz i cant do it now
[22:40] <peni> hi, how can I tell whether or not I have KMS enabled?
[22:41] <peni> (kernel modesetting)
[22:41] <tomvolek> usr, the job entry is just to backup a directory .
[22:42] <usr13> reanimation911: what is "RS" ?
[22:42] <reanimation911> usr13: restart. And i ran what you said but i get the same --configure....line.
[22:42] <bekks> I'm getting stuck with setting up samba. I want to have one share accessible by one user, read-write.

[22:47] <reanimation911> usr13: forget it, im just gonna reinstall 12.04 cuz its not like i had things done on it or anything.
[22:48] <xangua> a5m0: chromium browser is already on ubuntu repository
[22:48] <a5m0> chrome not chromium
[22:48] <reanimation911> usr13: gahhh....this whole process all over again -_- whatever. Thanks for the help :)
[22:48] <xangua> a5m0: just install it with the deb that google provides and i'll also add the deb repository for google chrome
[22:49] <a5m0> xangua, already done that, but I updated to 12.04 a while back and suddenly chrome just stopped working today
[22:49] <a5m0> I don't want her to lose all her bookmarks
[22:50] <trism> a5m0: the deb repository will be in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[22:50] <sacarlson> bekks: ya passworded samba on win7,  I had better luck with no password.  I'm sure it can be done but I already too a wack at it and failed
[22:50] <bekks> sacarlson: So what would I have to change to use it without passwords?
[22:52] <sacarlson> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1059909/
[22:52] <bekks> sacarlson: Thx, I'll try that :)
[22:53] <haz3lnut> Who can help with how to direct line in or mic in to speakers?
[22:53] <usr13> tomvolek: What is acap ?
[22:53] <sacarlson> bekks: maybe just put encrypted files in the passwordless samba as a temp solution.  I think you can get passwords to also work if you take the time
[22:53] <faryshta> !jabber
[22:53] <faryshta> !wordpress
[22:53] <tomvolek> usr13 acap is a user name
[22:53] <faryshta> !moodle
[22:54] <bekks> sacarlson: This is a private LAN, I dont host sensitive data there. [store] is just some place in the network to dump files to :)
[22:55] <lopez> how reset gnome ?
[22:55] <usr13> tomvolek: Is this a cronjob for that user?
[22:55] <genii-around> bekks: What filesystem is on /mnt/olymp/store ?
[22:55] <herman_> ne gk ada yang cwek ta disisni??
[22:55] <usr13> tomvolek: It's acap's cronjob?
[22:55] <sacarlson> bekks: on that one I showed you the [public] can be write by anyone on the lan,  I firewall to prevent wan access
[22:56] <ibodi> after an update last night, my wireless disappear again. however i saw neighbours wireless, just not my own. :(
[22:56] <usr13> tomvolek: If so, take out acap
[22:56] <tomvolek> usr13  ahh, i think you pointed me to my problem.  Its a cronjob for the entire sytem but I like to save the files it backed up under that users directory ... so I need to make the cron job to be run by root , ya ?
[22:56] <genii-around> !id | herman_
[22:56] <bekks> sacarlson: Thats what I am doing too.
[22:56] <usr13> tomvolek: Ok good.
[22:56] <tomvolek> thanks man
[22:56] <tomvolek> silly of me
[22:57] <usr13> NP
[22:57] <compdoc> bekks, disable encripted passwords, and make sure the same user exists on the samba server
[22:57] <sacarlson> bekks: if you ever figure out passwords let me know
[22:57] <bekks> compdoc: Already checked. No success.
[22:57] <tomvolek> usr13 do i need to have the user name =root in there , i just leave it blank ?
[22:57] <bekks> sacarlson: I'll do :)
[22:57] <usr13> tomvolek: Well, sometimes, you just need to take a step back and look at the situation, (it's often more obvious than you first realized.)
[22:58] <tomvolek> true
[22:58] <compdoc> bekks, no, it needs to be set to disabled
[22:58] <haz3lnut> solved it myself. thanks.
[22:59] <tomvolek> but should i have it like 05 00  * * *   root    /home/acap/backups/acapbackup.sh
[22:59] <bekks> compdoc:So I should omit line 7-9 in my config?
[22:59] <tomvolek> or 05 00  * * *       /home/acap/backups/acapbackup.sh
[23:00] <compdoc> bekks, youre missing some lines. maybe an old smb.conf?
[23:01] <bekks> compdoc: I moved away the stock smb.conf and created a new from scratch containg the entries I thought I'd need.
[23:02] <compdoc> bekks, I can paste the lines i think are need for win7, but pastebin.com wraps the text so it looks wrong
[23:02] <bekks> compdoc: I think I'll manage it ;)
[23:02] <bekks> (to get the lines right)
[23:03] <bekks> So you paste is appreciated :)
[23:03] <sacarlson> tomvolek: I guess if you sudo crontab -e ; then your 05 00  * * *       /home/acap/backups/acapbackup.sh  will default to be run by root
[23:04] <compdoc> bekks, I need to edit - be a sec
[23:05] <tomvolek> sacarlson  ok,  I am runnign this script to backup all user files and need to put the backup under an admin user, but cron I guess needs to run az root since it is invoked by a process that is owned by root
[23:08] <sacarlson> tomvolek: sounds good to me
[23:10] <compdoc> bekks,   http://pastebin.com/95vBf00N
[23:10] <compdoc> then restart smbd
[23:11] <Tom12> on Ubuntu 12.04 should i upgrade to openjdk 7 or stay with 6 ?
[23:13] <kyle__> Does using an apt proxy (like apt-cache-ng) stop anyone else from doing a do-release-upgrade?  I had to take it out of the config.  And it would sure as hell speed up this slow slow process.
[23:13] <kyle__> Tom12: Nothing wrong with openjdk7 that I've seen.
[23:13] <kyle__> Tom12: Of course, some things (fscking dell DRACs) don't work with any openjdk, but other than those.
[23:14] <Tom12> would i run into any dependency issues upgrading to openjdk 7 ?
[23:14] <kyle__> Tom12: Nope.  You can even have multiple installed IIRC.
[23:14] <sarsaeol> just loaded 12.04 on an asus eb1012p and it does not seem like i have any usb3 ports (there should be 2) all i see are usb1.1 and 2 when doing a lsusb. i also do not see the common usb3 module 'xhci_hcd' when running lsmod… also in disk utility it shows that any disk is connected at 480Mb/s which i believe is USB2
[23:14] <Tom12> IIRC ??
[23:14] <TechHunter16> Hey, I recently built a new PC, and I don't have any sound. I've tried everything in the Ubuntu Sound Troubleshooting article on the wiki, and nothing has helped
[23:15] <usr13> tomvolek: leave it blank
[23:15] <Tom12> ok
[23:15] <usr13> tomvolek: if you've done  sudo crontab -e
[23:15] <Tom12> i tried to update to openjdk 7 but when i do a version check  it still shows version 6. what do i need to do ?
[23:15] <usr13> (which would be root's crontab
[23:16] <TechHunter16> If I could have some help, that would be great.
[23:16] <kyle__> Tom12: Update your default jdk/jre.
[23:16] <kyle__> Tom12: BOth are probably installed
[23:16] <Tom12> kyle, how do i update default jdk/jre ?
[23:16] <gli7ch> Good evening, guys&grrls

[23:17] <Tom12> Kyle, that may be, both installed. how do i update default jdk ?
[23:17] <ali_> heu
[23:18] <TechHunter16> So, no help?
[23:18] <kyle__> Tom12: Errr, something like apt-update-default or somesuch... been awhile. Google shoudl tell you.
[23:18] <kyle__> update-alternatives jre maybe?
[23:18] <ali_> i can't use my webcam, please help
[23:19] <Tom12> kyle, thanks. i thought i updated it earlier...i rebooted and went back to java 6.
[23:19] <israel> ali_: sudo apt-get install cheese
[23:19] <kyle__> Hum.  All here it is.  update-alternatives --list java will show you which javas you have available.  And then a --set with the right one should do it for you.
[23:20] <ali_> thank's
[23:20] <Tom12> kyle, thank you

[23:22] <sacarlson> ali_: lsusb see what your webcam returns and lookup the numbers see if it's supported
[23:23] <sacarlson> israel: oh ya forgot it could be a laptop webcam ali_ ?
[23:24] <israel> sacarlson, mm right

[23:27] <zabomber> hi
[23:28] <zabomber> how do i drag one application to a seperate workspace in ubuntu? like in OSX you can use the mouse pad to zoom out and drag applications to seperate desktop spaces?
[23:28] <OerHeks> delac, /.local/share/gedit/plugins  create the directory if it does not exist
[23:30] <sacarlson> zabomber: on gnome if the app isn't full screen I can just drag from the top bar to my next workspace
[23:30] <Jordan_U> zabomber: IIRC (I'm not currently using Unity) there should be an icon with 4 squares in the dock which should bring you to a similar screen.
[23:30] <Baneat> Hi, how do I configure Catalyst Control centre? My screen is underscanning so I need to correct that
[23:33] <zabomber> Jordan_U: thanks so much!
[23:33] <DystaN> on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS how can I remap the mouse buttons

[23:35] <r4y> I want help getting this KODAK AIO esp c315 all-in-one printer working with Ubuntu 10.04
[23:35] <beatusbeat> In Firefox (13.0.1) a few letters or characters are not fully represented. The problem exists even in other programs (LibreOffice, Thunderbird). I am using Ubuntu 11.10. Would be glad if someone could help me. The german ubuntuuser forum and Google did not help. Here's a screenshot of the problem: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21410646/Zeichenproblem.png
[23:36] <Baneat> works out the box.. lol lol no
[23:36] <Mofro> Hello everyone I'm having some problems with my Ubuntu system, i was moving some files from a partition to another in my HDD (cut & paste) but during this operation something went wrong and I lost data, I do realise that this was the dumbest thing I could do today but that data was pretty "important" and I'd like to recover it, is there any way to do so?
[23:37] <sacarlson> bekks: so what's the result of compdoc's samba config?  did it work?  looks posible
[23:39] <sacarlson> Mofro: must be nautilus,  I wonder at what state it failed?  you must see some of the files that it attempted to move
[23:40] <Mofro> sacarlson, when I pasted the data it claimed that such folder already existed (it didn't) so I let it paste and at some point clicked on "skip" as it was 'doing good', then when I looked at the results some data was missing
[23:41] <sarsaeol> just loaded 12.04 on an asus eb1012p and it does not seem like i have any usb3 ports (there should be 2) all i see are usb1.1 and 2 when doing a lsusb. i also do not see the common usb3 module 'xhci_hcd' when running lsmod… also in disk utility it shows that any disk is connected at 480Mb/s which i believe is USB2
[23:41] <sarsaeol> can anyone assist in setting up usb3?
[23:42] <KorvinSzanto> is there a shutter alternative
[23:42] <KorvinSzanto> shutter won't upload to imgur anymore
[23:42] <sacarlson> Mofro: maybe missing due to you didn't have priv to read some files from the source I guess
[23:43] <Mofro> sacarlson, I had privileges both in the source and destination folders
[23:43] <Mofro> sacarlson, and the files are missing in both anyways, like it actually cut them but never pasted
[23:43] <sacarlson> Mofro: you may had priv in the folder but what of the files in it?
[23:44] <Mofro> sacarlson, files aswell my privileges were ok I had set them right before moving everything
[23:45] <sacarlson> Mofro: not sure, without any error message other than you say you skiped, I'm clueless what else may have happend
[23:45] <Mofro> sacarlson, the only error message, if you want to call it so was "there already is a folder named XXX, overwrite, skip, stop"
[23:46] <sacarlson> Mofro: but if you skip to overwrite I wonder wouldn't the files that were to be replaced still exist on the source path?
[23:47] <sacarlson> Mofro: maybe the files are hiden?
[23:47] <sarsaeol> anyone know why ubuntu 12.04 would not be supporting my 2 USB3 ports?
[23:47] <Mofro> sacarlson, supposedly, it should just halt the paste of the already existing files, but the problem is that those files were in a folder, and that folder already existed (which is not true as it was even a fresh install lol)
[23:48] <root___> hello
[23:48] <Mofro> sacarlson, I searched for hidden files aswell, only in source and destination folders though, I have no idea of where else I should look
[23:49] <lsm-lpt> how can i configure grub bootloader to *always* display options (and persist 10 seconds at least)?
[23:49] <sacarlson> lsm-lpt: grub-customizer gui app is cool for setting that
[23:50] <lsm-lpt> will try it thanks sacarlson
[23:50] <Jordan_U> lsm-lpt: To override Ubuntu's ignoring of GRUB_TIMEOUT by default add "timeout=10" to /boot/grub/custom.cfg (creating the file if it doesn't already exist).
[23:51] <lsm-lpt> interesting Jordan_U
[23:51] <lsm-lpt> see you on the other side :)
[23:52] <beatusbeat> Have some trouble with wrong depicted letters and characters specially in Firefox... screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21410646/Zeichenproblem.png
[23:52] <Mofro> sacarlson, if that matters at all the source partition's filesystem is FAT32 and the destination's ext4
[23:57] <rwb> Hi, my mic input stopped working on skype after I used audacity yesterday.  Seems I can't get it working again at all through pulse audio control.  Any ideas?
