[16:22] <miphix_> Laurenceb___: you still ther?
[16:22] <Laurenceb___> yes
[16:22] <jhutchins> miphix_: The -nn switch causes the pciid to be included; there are databases where you can search for the associated driver.
[16:22] <miphix_> what is your sound card doing?
[16:22] <miphix_> jhutchins: where can I find the database
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> audio mixer says @HDA Intel@
[16:23] <miphix_> after that, i'm set
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> arg
[16:23] <destro-> jhutchins: for the most part mitigation via network firewall is the best till my EOL OS servers go to their final resting place
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> keyboard is screwed too
[16:23] <cromagi> my chip is a "Broadcom corporation: Wmp54GS v1.1 802.llg wireless -G PCI adapter
[16:23] <ppf> Laurenceb___: run pavucontrol
[16:23] <miphix_> that's crazy
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> ok
[16:23] <destro-> Laurenceb___ your shit sounds really fucked up
[16:23] <miphix_> so, what do you mean it's intel
[16:23] <miphix_> is it something else/
[16:23] <destro-> is this a laptop?
[16:23] <destro-> desktop?
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> yes, laptop
[16:24] <Laurenceb___> Latitude D820, fresh 14.04 lts
[16:24] <destro-> what brand/model?
[16:24] <destro-> did you see if anyone has done a guide to installing and using for that model already
[16:24] <cromagi> kil ^^^^^
[16:24] <Laurenceb___> ok ill google
[16:24] <destro-> if there are changes one needs to make for the specific components?
[16:24] <jhutchins> !wifi
[16:25] <destro-> in all honesty most of the information you require for a laptop that isnt "certified" for an OS comes from searching from others experiences or by writing up something yourself as you learn
[16:25] <miphix_> !wifi chipset
[16:25] <destro-> that was the bonus of running linux on a laptop pre-ubuntu, you had to figure this shit out yourself
[16:25] <miphix_> mer
[16:25] <destro-> so a lot of the questions took work
[16:25] <daftykins> miphix_: please play with the bot in a private message if you're in a spammy mood
[16:26] <jhutchins> cromagi: 14.04, right?
[16:26] <daftykins> it's very irritating to the rest of us
[16:26] <miphix_> not spamming
[16:26] <jhutchins> !firmware
[16:26] <miphix_> i'm actually trying to use it
[16:26] <cromagi> yees, jhutchins
[16:26] <raf97> CIAO!
[16:26] <daftykins> yeah, so do so in a PM please.
[16:26] <raf97> !list
[16:26] <miphix_> yes sir
[16:26] <cfhowlett> miphix_, like this:  /msg ubottu !triggergoeshere
[16:26] <cromagi> !list
[16:26] <miphix_> what's the bots nic?
[16:26] <jhutchins> cromagi miphix_ This might be helpful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:26] <cromagi> what ubottu?
[16:27] <destro-> i do miss the days of linux being an educational tool for the desktop/laptop user
[16:27] <MonkeyDust> destro-  linux is no "tool"
[16:27] <miphix_> interesting thank you cfhowlett
[16:28] <cfhowlett> miphix_, happy2help!
[16:28] <destro-> MonkeyDust of you dont understand the use of the word tool
[16:28] <destro-> im uncertain if you get my point
[16:28] <miphix_> oh man, i smell a flame
[16:28] <miphix_> linux isn't a tool?
[16:28] <miphix_> xD
[16:28] <destro-> tool = something to help you build
[16:29] <miphix_> or destroy
[16:29] <miphix_> seriously, i've seen linux do some crazy stuff
[16:29] <destro-> linux itself is a tool to help you build upon computing knowledge, i had to LEARN linux when i picked it up in 95
[16:29] <destro-> 96 or so
[16:30] <destro-> now a days, it's far more simple to get running, at least in the server sense
[16:30] <miphix_> i discovered linux in 2008
[16:30] <miphix_> sad
[16:30] <destro-> im probably a bit older
[16:30] <miphix_> my world, it was only windows and mac
[16:30] <miphix_> 31 yo
[16:30] <destro-> 36
[16:30] <destro-> just a bit
[16:30] <miphix_> i lived under a rock
[16:30] <miphix_> that doesn't help either
[16:30] <destro-> i was a college dropout sysadmin
[16:30] <destro-> still am
[16:31] <miphix_> :)
[16:31] <destro-> work at a big nyc media company
[16:31] <miphix_> it's just a number
[16:31] <miphix_> nice
[16:31] <cfhowlett> !ot | please
[16:31] <destro-> all the experience has made up for the lack of giving a shit about student loans
[16:31] <destro-> ubottu fair enough
[16:31] <destro-> cfhowlett sorry
[16:31] <miphix_> oh don't tell me about student loans
[16:31] <cromagi> i dont know if mine is b43
[16:32] <miphix_> i'm in for 20 grand for a network systems engineering course and I'm getting screwed
[16:32] <miphix_> my teacher is a tool
[16:32] <destro-> anyhow, anyone spent time compiling something to mitigate GHOST over 11.04?  or am i SOL?
[16:32] <cfhowlett> miphix_, PM or #ubuntu-offtopic for chit chat.
[16:32] <miphix_> ok
[16:33] <gitext> After Ubuntu has crashed (again) my Bash history is corrupted. Just hieroglyphs in it. How can I fix it?
[16:34] <cfhowlett> cromagi, refresh hour memory ... looks like you're working on wifi??
[16:34] <cromagi> yes
[16:35] <cfhowlett> cromagi, is it a broadcom by chance??
[16:36] <TheNumb> destro-: which version of glibc?
[16:37] <k1l> destro-: not from official side. 11.04 is EOL anyways and should not be used
[16:38] <TheNumb> hmm, eglibc 2.13
[16:38] <TheNumb> patch yo shizz
[16:38] <TheNumb> :P
[16:39] <TheNumb> destro-: you could probably fetch the patch from debian and apply it yourself.
[16:39] <destro-> TheNumb oooh good call
[16:39] <pratik_> Hi can you give me link of Off Topic chat room ?
[16:39] <k1l> !ot | pratik_
[16:43] <skapism> Hi, I'm running ubuntu server 14.04 in an openvz environment (kernel 2.6.32-042stab094.8). I'm running a lighttpd/sql/php configuration. I have 2GiB of memory according to free -m. Even though lighttpd/mariadb/php don't consume a lot of memory, I only have about 100 MiB free.
[16:43] <skapism> Is there a way to find out what's consuming the rest of the memory? (If I turn off all those services, there's around 300 MiB free.)
[16:43] <daftykins> www.linuxatemyram.com
[16:43] <null___> Test.
[16:43] <daftykins> null___: failed
[16:43] <null___> Fuck yeah, it works.
[16:44] <cfhowlett> !language | null___,
[16:44] <daftykins> null___: don't use that language and don't use this channel for your testing. #test
[16:44] <null___> Okay.
[16:45] <skapism> daftykins: that would be fine, but when I just tried to install git via apt-get, it failed, saying it cannot fork.
[16:45] <k1l> skapism: open htop and sort for ram usage
[16:46] <skapism> k1l: I've got mysql at around 5%, then 10 php-cgi process each at ~1.5%, and those are the major culprits.
[16:46] <skapism> That hardly amounts to 20% of the ram
[16:46] <daftykins> skapism: such an ancient kernel, who is your provider?
[16:46] <skapism> intovps
[16:48] <k1l> skapism: are you sure it guaranteed 2 gb ram? sometimes the only got 1 gb and 1 gb is shared of all vhosts.
[16:49] <skapism> k1l: yup, it's 2048 MB guaranteed.
[16:50] <skapism> Well it does say 1702 at buffers/cache under free, so that should be fine.
[16:50] <skapism> I just wonder why dpkg couldn't fork...
[16:51] <rockstar_> Is it possible to do remote dual boot Ubuntu Installation, if so how? At the other end I have a small sister and I'm trying to help her to install it.
[16:51] <saltlake> Champs, I find this is a common problem but have not found a resolution to it "gdk_mir_display_open
[16:51] <saltlake> Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to connect to server socket: No such file or directory
[16:51] <saltlake> Cannot open display:"
[16:51] <saltlake> where gdk display is an issue on ubuntu server 14.1
[16:52] <saltlake> is there a fix/hack that could be used
[16:53] <cromagi> yes it is cfhowlett
[16:53] <k1l> saltlake: what ubunut is that exactly?
[16:53] <cfhowlett> !broadcom | cromagi
[16:53] <cfhowlett> cromagi, do you have an ubuntu USB?
[16:53] <k1l> saltlake: and what did produce that error? is there more than this words?
[16:53] <saltlake> k11: this is ubuntu server 14.1
[16:53] <cromagi> what do u mean
[16:53] <k1l> saltlake: "lsb_release -d" gives you what?
[16:54] <k1l> saltlake: and what did produce that error? and why does it want to open a window on a server?
[16:54] <saltlake> k11: http://pastebin.com/S9Uhh4YY
[16:54] <k1l> saltlake: and mir should not be used so far at all
[16:55] <saltlake> k1l: Ok so I unistall mir components.
[16:55] <bu5hm4n> hello, can someone tell me if I can uninstall linux-server on a server ?
[16:55] <k1l> saltlake: mir ist still "in the making". the target for MIR as the new x11 is 16.04. its side by side with wayland development.
[16:56] <saltlake> k1l: Oh wow.. I did not explicit to install it actually
[16:56] <saltlake> I installed gnome-shell. I should remove it. Can you recommend a way to get a display lib for allow a window to open ?
[16:57] <k1l> saltlake: ssh -X works
[16:57] <saltlake> I will try that.. thank you
[16:58] <skapism> k1l: any idea what could be the cause? for comparison, I had an older archlinux installation running on this vps until a while ago that consumed on average 1.2GB RAM. I'm seeing these values since having reinstalled.
[16:58] <k1l> saltlake: you dont need a desktop running for that. you can just open that window on you local machine with ssh -X
[16:58] <k1l> skapism: what gives you free -m?
[16:59] <saltlake> Basically the ssh connection to the server needs to have the -X option..
[16:59] <k1l> !paste | skapism
[16:59] <jpds_> !ram | skapism
[16:59] <cromagi> is there a teamviewer for ubuntu
[16:59] <daftykins> i already linked that
[16:59] <daftykins> cromagi: yes, on their website
[16:59] <skapism> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9959474/
[17:00] <cromagi> so somebody on windows can use it to connect to my ubuntu?
[17:00] <jhutchins> cromagi: What are you really trying to do?
[17:00] <jpds_> skapism: Plenty of cache free.
[17:00] <bu5hm4n> cromagi: if I remember correct it is running on linux ...
[17:00] <k1l> skapism: see the 2. line
[17:01] <k1l> skapism: linuxatemyram.com explains the lines very good
[17:01] <skapism> k1l: yep, I've read linuxatemyram.com
[17:01] <cromagi> im on a dev team and we could really use it]
[17:01] <cromagi> How to install a .deb file?
[17:01] <skapism> but why would an apt-get install git fail then?
[17:01] <k1l> skapism: so you got a ram usage of 354 mb.
[17:01] <k1l> skapism: that depends on the exact error message
[17:01] <cfhowlett> cromagi, sudo dpkg -i foo.deb
[17:01] <jpds_> skapism: Try it again.
[17:01] <cromagi> ok
[17:02] <bu5hm4n> cromagi: do you know collabedit ?
[17:04] <cromagi> no
[17:04] <skapism> jpds_: oh well, it worked. I wonder what that fork error was...
[17:04] <cromagi> sudo dpkg -i foo.deb didnt work to install it
[17:04] <cromagi> any other way?
[17:04] <jpds_> skapism: Cosmic ray.
[17:04] <cfhowlett> cromagi, "it" ??   what "it"?
[17:05] <squinty> cromagi:  the software manager or install gdebi.   both will check for dependancy issues too
[17:05] <skapism> jpds_: well, thank you.
[17:05] <EriC^^> cromagi: what's the package/filename?
[17:05] <skapism> k1l: thank you, too.
[17:06] <k1l> np
[17:06] <cromagi> teamviewer_10.0.37742_amd64.deb
[17:07] <EriC^^> cromagi: what was the error?
[17:07] <EriC^^> !info teamviewer
[17:07] <pratik_> Hi
[17:07] <skapism> k1l: apparently the kernel openvz uses is based on an older rhel6 kernel...
[17:07] <pratik_> I can use a Windows machine for 10 hours straight without the slightest problem, but after around 15-30 minutes of using ubuntu my eyes become sore and dried out.I currently have 14.04 installed with a dual-boot Windows XP. Same hardware, eyestrain only with ubuntu.
[17:08] <cromagi> how do i install it?
[17:08] <EriC^^> cromagi: what is the error it's giving?
[17:08] <k1l> skapism: yes, that is very old. imho they should offer newer kernels. maybe you can ask and get migrated to a more recent host
[17:09] <squinty> cromagi:  try clicking on it in your file manager.  Software center will handle debs too
[17:10] <squinty> cromagi:  if it still barfs using gdebi or software center then you may have a corrupt deb
[17:10] <skapism> k1l: yeah, so far as I've read now, openvz cannot work yet with 3.x kernels with a full feature set
[17:10] <cromagi> dpkg: error processing archive foo.deb (--install):

[17:11] <cfhowlett> cromagi, foo.deb the name of your file?
[17:11] <k1l> skapism: hmm, i am not sure. i saw a lot of openvz with 3.xx kernels

[17:12] <cfhowlett> cromagi, in linux-speak "foo" = Placeholder of actual file name
[17:12] <cromagi> i know
[17:12] <skapism> k1l: it claims that just basic functionality is supported
[17:12] <jpds_> skapism: Hasn't openvz been killed by lxc?
[17:12] <skapism> jpds_: maybe I should start looking for another vps hoster, then.
[17:13] <skapism> pity, I've been really content with this one over the years, never had any problems
[17:13] <daftykins> but a 2.16 kernel in 2015? madness
[17:13] <skapism> 2.6.32, daftykins
[17:13] <k1l> skapism: the wiki page is from january 2014. i dont know if that is still true then. but maybe there is a openvz channel that can make a good answer
[17:13] <daftykins> sorry, brain fail.
[17:14] <skapism> k1l: yeah, I'd better ask my host directly what their plans are
[17:14] <cromagi> what do i do??
[17:14] <skapism> hoster*
[17:14] <daftykins> cromagi: don't use 64-bit
[17:14] <skapism> have you got any recommendations for a good no-frills vps provider?
[17:15] <cromagi> i have 64bit
[17:15] <daftykins> nope that's pretty off topic for this channel
[17:15] <skapism> alright
[17:15] <daftykins> cromagi: i know - and i'm saying try 32-bit teamviewer :)
[17:15] <cromagi> okay ;)
[17:15] <k1l> skapism: #ubuntu-offtopic might be better for that experience exchange :)

[17:23] <mustmodify> I'm experiencing an odd, intermitent issue with a server that seems to revolve around files.  Same thing happens with vim. Usually things are fast, but occasionally there's a several-second delay. Any thoughts on how I can diagnose this kind of issue?
[17:23] <EriC^^> that too ^
[17:25] <daftykins> mustmodify: what kind of server?
[17:25] <cromagi> none of those worked
[17:25] <mustmodify> daftykins: ubuntu ... I'll have to look up the version number.
[17:26] <mustmodify> I'm accessing it via ssh
[17:26] <cn28h_> mustmodify: local files or are they mounted over nfs/cifs/etc?
[17:26] <mustmodify> local
[17:26] <mustmodify> cn28h_: local
[17:26] <daftykins> mustmodify: i mean physical box vs. VM, running at home or what
[17:27] <mustmodify> daftykins: ah, thanks. Let's see... vm at rackspace
[17:27] <mustmodify> load and memory look good
[17:28] <daftykins> disk usage?
[17:28] <daftykins> i think you should give them a shout in the first isntance
[17:28] <daftykins> instance too
[17:28] <mustmodify> I'm not sure how to look at that.
[17:29] <null___> The BELL (\a) is off by default at ubuntu, right? How to turn it on?
[17:29] <daftykins> mustmodify: 'df -h'
[17:33] <cromagi> what do i do?
[17:33] <cromagi> It wont install

[17:34] <daftykins> cromagi: i thought you were working on wifi trouble to start with?
[17:34] <pratik_> Hi , could you please solve my issue ? Please I beg you!
[17:34] <daftykins> what's more important here?
[17:34] <pratik_> Hi , could you please solve my issue ? Please I beg you!
[17:35] <daftykins> pratik_: please don't repeat yourself, it's very irritating
[17:35] <cromagi> i took a break from it
[17:35] <bkleef> Did anybody use mdadm to create RAID sets like ZFS with for example two RAID 6 setups and on top of that RAID 0?
[17:35] <cromagi> How do i fix unmet dependencies?
[17:35] <squinty> cromagi:  just installed that file using, the software center and my file manager without any problems.  using dpkg is not the recommended method.  as stated before use either the software center or install gdebi.
[17:35] <pratik_> I didnt get ANY answer from ANY1.What is this then ?
[17:35] <daftykins> pratik_: go look up ways to change your subpixel rendering and ensure you're using the correct resolution for your display
[17:35] <daftykins> pratik_: this is a volunteer channel, you are not *owed* help
[17:35] <pratik_> its proper resolution
[17:36] <cromagi> i cant install gdebi either
[17:36] <cromagi> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[17:36] <cromagi>  gdebi : Depends: gdebi-core (= <IP_ADDRESS>) but it is not going to be installed
[17:36] <cromagi>          Depends: gksu but it is not going to be installed

[17:36] <cromagi>  teamviewer : Depends: libc6-i386 (>= 2.4) but it is not going to be installed
[17:36] <cromagi>               Depends: lib32asound2 but it is not installable
[17:36] <pratik_> subpixel rendering ? how to change it?
[17:37] <daftykins> pratik_: that's what you need to look up.
[17:37] <pratik_> I thought you guys here are talented and willing to help
[17:37] <niel> so is there a way to install the drivers from nvidia and not have it screw the entire DE?
[17:38] <squinty> cromagi:  and how are you trying to install gdebi?
[17:38] <niel> I need the absolute latest drivers from there site
[17:38] <Scunizi> I'm trying to find a package that will help me pic complementary colors for a print application.  Any suggestions?
[17:38] <EriC^^> cromagi: try the 64bit version
[17:38] <EriC^^> ( if you're using a 64bit machine )
[17:39] <squinty> multiarch version installs without any problems on 14.04
[17:39] <niel> even nvidia-current is super outdated
[17:39] <squinty> that package he is trying to install is multiarch
[17:39] <EriC^^> squinty: ok
[17:39] <parallels> ciao
[17:40] <cromagi> sudo apt-get install gdebi
[17:40] <cromagi> i tried both versions
[17:40] <daftykins> pratik_: i would recommend you don't act entitled in here, i gave you a pointer of what to look up - now you may help yourself :)
[17:41] <cromagi> ohhh daftykins just burned you lol
[17:41] <daftykins> cromagi: please don't comment on other discourse
[17:41] <cromagi> anyone using the samsung galaxy s3 on straight talk (SCH-S968C) ?

[17:45] <MonkeyDust> molgrum  better ask in the wine channel
[17:46] <molgrum> MonkeyDust: i did, they told me to speka to the packager :|

[17:52] <RagingBuddha> Hey guys, where do I find programs in Ubuntu? I would like to add a few to Startup Applications, but no clue where they are located (Skype, Pidgin etc.)
[17:52] <cromagi> ok i finished installing my updates and i still get the same errors
[17:53] <quey> i hava javafx compilation problem . http://pastebin.com/eNrdGnr0
[17:53] <quey> Can anyone help?
[17:53] <cromagi> what do i do?
[17:54] <daftykins> quey: you probably want a java development channel
[17:54] <daftykins> development is off topic here
[17:54] <quey> i have write there but no answer
[17:54] <daftykins> quey: then you must be patient there, whether it's #java or ##java or what
[17:55] <cgt> Anyone got experience (good/bad) with Asus Z97-AR under Linux?
[17:55] <cromagi> how do i install gdebi?
[17:55] <cgt> cromagi: sudo apt-get install gdebi
[17:56] <daftykins> cgt: very unlikely to find someone with the same hardware, standard sense applies - try to get a board with intel NICs and not realtek ones
[17:56] <daftykins> (or those silly 'killer NICs'
[17:57] <cgt> Yeah it's got an Intel NIC. It does say "turboLAN" though... sounds suspicious. I'll look it up.
[17:57] <daftykins> probably some silly Asus tech claiming speed improvements :)
[17:57] <cgt> Yeah, I know some of their ROG boards have silly stuff like that
[17:59] <cromagi> i get errors with that
[17:59] <smurfy> how do you configure lynx as to where it saves files to?

[18:18] <beast> actually not in town.
[18:18] <quey_> i need invited
[18:18] <daftykins> quey_: it's probably ##java

[18:19] <ppf> it's ##java
[18:19] <daftykins> quey_: any network problems, please ask for support in #freenode
[18:19] <LurkAshFlake> how do i access the content of my cd-drive in a terminal?
[18:20] <quey_>  ##java :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services
[18:20] <squinty> quey_:  joining #java here automatically sends me to join ##java
[18:20] <Pici> !register | quey_
[18:20] <LurkAshFlake> squinty same channel
[18:20] <quey_> ok
[18:20] <squinty> LurkAshFlake:  that is exactly my point. :P
[18:20] <daftykins> LurkAshFlake: you should see a mounted disc path from "df -h" then you can change to its' path
[18:21] <daftykins> (assuming it's desktop that auto mounted the disc)
[18:24] <LurkAshFlake> is there a tool to get a .iso file out of a CD?
[18:25] <LurkAshFlake> well yes there is but.. anyway

[18:25] <null___> Hm. How to trick firefox to open irc:// links with irssi? Any idea?
[18:27] <teward> null___: you'd need a GUI hook that executes irssi in certain parameters - irssi is CLI so i don't think by default there's any kind of application integration there
[18:28] <kbrosnan> null___: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol
[18:28] <null___> Thought about to automatic run urxvt with irssi. I'll check mighty google.
[18:28] <null___> Oh, thanks.
[18:30] <squinty> null___:  there is also a firefox channel here on freenode    #firefox
[18:30] <Rapture> I'm trying to figure out why my logrotate isn't kicking in for a set of logs. I have it set to daily and when I do a dry run it says "log does not need rotating" when I check the status the date of the logs it well over a day old (2014-12-16-6:0:0). Any help on why it's not working?
[18:32] <Rapture> why I run it with -f I get error: error creating output file /var/log/mylog/mylog.log-20150125.gz: File exists
[18:33] <breadmonster> Okay, so I have a slight problem booting.
[18:34] <breadmonster> I gave my laptop to the HP service center, and they opened it up and booted it with a spare HDD, which completely changed my motherboard values, I think.
[18:34] <breadmonster> So I ran boot repair on a live CD.
[18:35] <daftykins> that doesn't seem a wise move
[18:35] <breadmonster> this is the log file: paste.ubuntu.com/9960646
[18:35] <breadmonster> daftykins: I had Ubuntu installed before.
[18:35] <maelztrom> So, I bumpbed my 12.04.? to HWE to get the 3.8 kernel (docker installation instrutions for precise).  I'd like to back out of this. hwe-support-status command  told me -- check out the wiki at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL
[18:35] <maelztrom> the wiki told me:  "the hwe-support-status tool will tell you what you need to do"
[18:36] <daftykins> maelztrom: yeah you can't install 3.8 on precise, that's an old EOL kernel :)
[18:36] <maelztrom> how the heck do I get my kernel back to 3.2 series...?
[18:36] <daftykins> maelztrom: ls /boot, confirm you still have 3.2 kernels, then just purge the 3.8 ones
[18:36] <breadmonster> daftykins: now I'm back on Windows. GRUB just doesn't show up.
[18:37] <breadmonster> Can anyone give me a hand?
[18:37] <daftykins> breadmonster: looks like you just need to reinstall GRUB
[18:37] <daftykins> !fixgrub
[18:37] <maelztrom> that simple daftykins?  heck... thought it was like switching me up to some pseudo distro.  Thanks
[18:37] <breadmonster> daftykins: I already ran boot-repair once...
[18:37] <breadmonster> Like five minutes ago.
[18:38] <daftykins> maelztrom: nah, just kernel packages and some xorg packages - but that only matters if it's a desktop
[18:40] <maelztrom> daftykins: standard dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[18:40] <daftykins> wat, so it is a desktop?
[18:40] <maelztrom> (of course)
[18:40] <daftykins> there's no of course about that :>
[18:41] <daftykins> what did you initially run to install the raring HWE?
[18:41] <maelztrom>  sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-raring linux-headers-generic-lts-raring
[18:41] <daftykins> oh and no depends?
[18:41] <maelztrom> sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-raring xserver-xorg-lts-raring libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-raring
[18:41] <daftykins> ah :P
[18:42] <daftykins> oh dear oh dear oh dear
[18:42] <maelztrom> did the reboot, looked at the new shiny, saw a million other things break, got the HWE warning and said "wow, I think I should have made a fresh backup"

[18:47] <daftykins> !pm
[18:49]  * Mark-Potter tests it
[18:49] <Mark-Potter> !pm
[18:50] <breadmonster> daftykins: Did you have a look at the boot-repair logs?
[18:50] <daftykins> yes but i'm not that hot with them
[18:51] <breadmonster> Do you know who I can ask/
[18:51] <beast> was wondering about it, still wating...
[18:51] <daftykins> beast: about what?
[18:52] <daftykins> breadmonster: actually... go into your system's EFI (the BIOS setup) and make sure the boot device is set to the hard disk instead of 'Windows Boot Manager' or whatever the exact name is
[18:52] <breadmonster> How do I do that?
[18:52] <daftykins> what brand did you say it is?
[18:52] <daftykins> HP
[18:53] <daftykins> hmm, something like F12 on boot at the logo to enter setup, it should say on-screen
[18:53] <breadmonster> daftykins: Yup.
[18:54] <daftykins> beast: do you have a support question or not?
[18:54] <maelztrom> many thanks daftykins, lurking in hopes of pay-it-forward
[19:02] <nafac> Ubuntu eat my socks, I can do anything three keypresses with my brand new debian openbox development ide.
[19:02] <kristoffelloos> Does anyone have a solution, I'm trying to stream Linux games from my one Ubuntu pc to another one, who does this, and what app are you using for this?
[19:02] <__raven_> hi
[19:04] <__raven_> 14.04.1 servr with encrypted home: some things and the ssh key auth fail often. how to solve that properly - timeout of ecryptfs access?
[19:04] <murdravic> nafac: Ubuntu thinks my usb wired game controller is wireless. Anyone out there can help me fix this, it'd be much appreciated. I'm going slightly mad.
[19:05] <pragmaticenigma> murdravic, does the controller work?
[19:06] <pbx> kristoffelloos, it's possible i'm just ignorant, but i have no idea what you mean by "stream" a game.  are you trying to do screen capture?  file transfer? the answer may not be game-specific. spell it out a little more, including saying what you tried and specificlally how it didn't meet your needs
[19:07] <murdravic> pragmaticenigma:  Should.  I just bought it. I got it t configure in debian, but I don't think it saved. And wouldn't work in mupen.
[19:07] <Mark-Potter> lol
[19:07] <nafac> buy XBOX hoh
[19:07] <Mark-Potter> nafac: STFU
[19:08] <kristoffelloos> pbx my one pc has a good video card  etc, the other one in my living room is a older one, can't handle modern games, Steam inhouse gaming stream only works from Windows to Linux. I want a solution so I can game on my older pc true the stronger one ;-)
[19:09] <Rapture> !matched
[19:09] <Rapture> !matches
[19:09] <pbx> kristoffelloos, good clarification, thanks.  sounds like maybe steam support would be worth hitting up as well
[19:09] <murdravic> Correct if wrong-- xbox one has regular console connecter?  xbox 360 is usb?
[19:09] <nafac> hack the controller
[19:10] <nafac> flash bash boom
[19:11] <daftykins> murdravic: xbox360 controllers are wired and wireless. the wireless one is USB connectable but does not send data over USB, therefore can't be used without a wireless dongle. the wired one is USB, yes. the xbox one controller is microUSB connectable and works wired (not sure about with Linux)
[19:11] <OerHeks> i read that xbox360 controller is supported in 3.18 kernel, without vibro http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/12/linux-kernel-3-18-released-whats-new
[19:11] <daftykins> nafac: since you do not use ubuntu and are not here for a support question, please remain silent otherwise you can talk in #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:12] <kristoffelloos> @pbx Steam isn't there yet, I'm looking for another solution like a kind of rdp, vnc or x11 solution on high framerate and sound support
[19:12] <pragmaticenigma> murdravic, If the controller is working, even though it thinks it is wireless, that is okay. Sometimes the driver will claim it's wireless when it really isn't.
[19:12] <murdravic> daftykins: So xB1 micro, xB360 reb
[19:12] <daftykins> 'reb' ?
[19:13] <murdravic> er,,, reg-ular
[19:14] <crazyhead42> I'm trying to figure out how to open the filecabnet to specific pages using the shell (so that I can see what type of files are in the directory I am viewing. ps ux gives me waaaayy too much information and I can't Identify the the program. How should I go about identifying it?
[19:14] <murdravic> So two people responded. Who is primary?
[19:15] <daftykins> primary? explain
[19:15] <daftykins> crazyhead42: as in you're trying to find out which program is the file browser? nautilus if this is unity
[19:16] <daftykins> so perhaps "nautilus ." for current working directory
[19:16] <crazyhead42> ... umm... how do I identify if I'm using unity?
[19:16] <daftykins> you see all the icons on the left of the screen in a vertical toolbar
[19:16] <RussianAgg> i use windows XP
[19:16] <murdravic> daftykins:  Neh Mine I'll just broadcast. Is it established I have xbox 360 controller> Would It matter?
[19:16] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  taksbar to the  left?
[19:16] <RussianAgg> pirate version
[19:16] <RussianAgg> i dont pay for soft
[19:16] <daftykins> murdravic: i can't understand you :)
[19:17] <rww> RussianAgg: My condolences. Is there an Ubuntu technical support question we can help you with?
[19:17] <DJones> RussianAgg: ok, but how is that relevant to Ubuntu
[19:17] <crazyhead42> Yes. I believe so.
[19:17] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  what do you see?
[19:17] <RussianAgg> ubunti is it sex form ? like 69 ?
[19:18] <RussianAgg> WHAT THE FUKC
[19:18] <MonkeyDust> RussianAgg  please leave
[19:18] <murdravic> Judging by the connecter type, do I have xbox 360 controller?? Does it even matter??
[19:18] <RussianAgg> SANCTION?
[19:18] <DJones> RussianAgg: This is an ubuntu support channel, please stay on topic
[19:18] <RussianAgg> against russia?
[19:18] <DJones> !guidelines | RussianAgg
[19:19] <RussianAgg> why do you use it shiit?
[19:19] <OerHeks> RussianAgg, join #ubuntu-ru for more fun.
[19:19] <crazyhead42> Umm, well it's got the search thing on top, the terminal button, the files button, then a bunch of other squares
[19:19] <daftykins> murdravic: you can tell the controller version from pictures online. only the wired xbox 360 controller works without a wireless dongle (the USB cable cannot be removed from the controller end)
[19:19] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  which of these is it? http://imgur.com/a/9iaLJ#cMfLqdM
[19:20] <crazyhead42> 1st
[19:20] <MonkeyDust> ok, that's unity, the default
[19:21] <crazyhead42> but how do I find that stuff out?
[19:21] <murdravic> Then, since my usb cable removes from both ends, it must be xbox 1?
[19:21] <daftykins> crazyhead42: you saw me say it's nautilus right?
[19:21] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  by getting used to it, by using it, like you got used to windows or mac
[19:22] <crazyhead42> Yes, but what I want is not the fish, but rather how to fish (pardon the poorly used metaphor)
[19:22] <daftykins> murdravic: does it look like this? maybe in white? http://www.gamerzicon.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Xbox-360-Play-and-charge-Kit.png
[19:23] <__raven_> 14.04.1 servr with encrypted home: some things and the ssh key auth fail often. how to solve that properly - timeout of ecryptfs access?
[19:23] <daftykins> murdravic: this is an xbox 360 controller above an xbox one controller: http://gameswallpaperhd.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/xbox-one-controller-colorsxbox-one--xbox-360-controller-comparison-e4qyagwz.jpg
[19:23] <MonkeyDust> !manual | crazyhead42 start here
[19:24] <Bashing-om> !manual | crazyhead42
[19:25] <murdravic> daftykins:  It does not. The cable is standard, with regular usb connector on one end, and micro-usb on the other. And the controller has one micro-usb port, and one (I think mini?) usb port.
[19:25] <murdravic> And cable and controller are both black
[19:25] <crazyhead42> ah, yes. That thing. I'm still learning how to navigate it. And generally failing.
[19:25] <daftykins> murdravic: so which pic?
[19:25] <daftykins> bottom one, xbox one controller, presumably
[19:26] <kirkland> __raven_: disable automatic unmounting
[19:26] <murdravic> daftykins:  Your web link showed only one pic...
[19:26] <daftykins> murdravic: yeah i meant which one in the pic :)
[19:27] <Bashing-om> crazyhead42: Another guide I like: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Trusty .
[19:28] <__raven_> kirkland: how to do that?
[19:28] <murdravic> daftykins: er... and there's... only one cable? Looks like some kindof cap, aswell... I dunno...
[19:28] <crazyhead42> So there aren't commands to see what was activated by the GUI?
[19:28] <daftykins> murdravic: *facepalm* are you unable to compare what you have in front of you with a picture online?
[19:29] <daftykins> murdravic: anyway it sounds like you have an xbox one controller. see the picture for proof
[19:29] <michaelaguiar> Can someone give me a quick hand on a software raid?
[19:29] <daftykins> !details | michaelaguiar
[19:29] <MonsterC> hi
[19:29] <michaelaguiar> I have a 24 disk raid array.  2 of them had some superblock issue, and now I have some corrupt files.  I was able to mark those 2 drives as spares, and mount the drive to log back into it
[19:29] <michaelaguiar> But now, I need to move the two spares back onto the array, with hopes that it will fix my corrupt files
[19:30] <murdravic> daftykins:  That is the definitive difference? The cable in the pic is xbox360?
[19:30] <kirkland> __raven_: rm -f $HOME/.ecryptfs/auto-umount
[19:30] <murdravic> Then yes, mine is xbox 1
[19:31] <divBy0> hey, im trying to access a camera feed at mydlink.com and on firefox and chrome it's saying jre is not installed and java is not showing up in either browser's about:plugins. from terminal java -version says java is up to date
[19:32] <murdravic> does xboxdrv or ubuntu-xboxdrv work in xbox 1?
[19:33] <daftykins> murdravic: look at the guide button on each, they're pretty hugely different
[19:36] <__raven_> kirkland: ok tnx
[19:36] <kbrosnan> divBy0: you will need to install the java plugin. it is a separate package. note java is a npapi plugin it will only work in Firefox these days
[19:36] <murdravic> does xboxdrv or ubuntu-xboxdrv work in xbox 1?
[19:36] <divBy0> kbrosnan, what is npapi?
[19:37] <daftykins> divBy0: mozilla plugin system
[19:37] <daftykins> (technically netscape)
[19:37] <divBy0> kbrosnan, daftykins thx && cheers
[19:42] <murdravic> daftykins:  At least I've completely identified it. Finally. It's an xbox 360.
[19:43] <daftykins> murdravic: yay :)
[19:43] <murdravic> daftykins:  Can you help me set it up as xbox 1?
[19:43] <daftykins> no, you can't make a controller into another model
[19:45] <murdravic> daftykins:  Dafty... the cable in your web link pic looks nothing like mine. I was testing. I have the xbox 1 controller. Could you help me to set it up?
[19:45] <Pici> 70
[19:46] <daftykins> murdravic: deliberate attempts to mislead me don't really put me in a charitable mood. goodbye now
[19:47] <murdravic> Well... (CENSORED)
[19:49] <murdravic> (Really Long Rant... Self-Censored)
[19:49] <michaelaguiar> I had 2 drives on a 24 drive array suddently return a no superblock error.  I moved these drives to SPARES, and was able to mount my raid again, but I have a ton of corrupt files.  Any ideas how to get my files back?
[19:50] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: did you look at their SMART data to see if they had failed?
[19:50] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: How can I check that?
[19:50] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: "sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX | pastebinit"
[19:50] <daftykins> where sdX is the chosen disk
[19:51] <daftykins> (they'll need to be attached to a controller that allows direct querying)
[19:51] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9962090/
[19:51] <michaelaguiar> ther eis one of them
[19:52] <WR-Stone> I have an issue with PBIS Open and a Windows domain in Azure.  Anyone have any experience?   I thought we,d established it to be Not xbox 360. You took so long getting back, I just thought I'd playfully nudge...
[19:53] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9962122/  there is the other
[19:53] <daftykins> murdravic: no, you weren't clear. now excuse me, i'm helping people who make sense
[19:54] <murdravic> then you must not be reading fast enough. Thanks for anotherfailure.
[19:54] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Here is one more, that I was suspicious about, but it mounted with the rest of the array fine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9962129/
[19:56] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: the first two show some errors at the bottom, but the SMART data tables are clean. the last one you link, has 1483 reallocated sectors on line 64 and is definitely 100% faulty, you should RMA that drive if you're in warranty
[19:56] <AkivaAvraham> is there an icon for Ubuntu Touch?
[19:56] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Ok so the first two are fine, it’s the last one that is my problem
[19:57] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: no, the first two show errors that i have not seen before, so they require more testing
[19:57] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Oh ok
[19:58] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: how did you determine you have corrupt data? did you fsck the volume after mounting with 2 missing disks?
[19:58] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: I mounted the full array, then try to open my files, and they are corrupt
[19:58] <daftykins> ah, what RAID mode does it use?
[19:58] <michaelaguiar> RAID 10
[19:59] <MonsterC> hi
[19:59] <daftykins> hmm 1TB disks are tiny for using 24 with :D
[19:59] <daftykins> s/with/of/
[20:00] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Yea, I didn’t set this raid up, and it’s a mess right now.
[20:00] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Any idea if I can fix my corrupt files, or are they pretty much lost?
[20:01] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: your #1 priority is restoring the array, worry about the data after that :) the first two suspect drives i would zero fill then check their SMART data again... ("dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx bs=2M" on another system preferably) then if they are clean, try returning them to the array and rebuilding it. replace the definitely faulty one and rebuild it too
[20:07] <amal> Thank you
[20:07] <amal> I was wondering about the backdoors in ubunty
[20:07] <amal> ubuntu*
[20:07] <amal> can someone help me out with that
[20:10] <freeroute> amal: sure, I'll contact the NSA so they can get in touch with you
[20:10] <freeroute> don't worry, they already have your contact details
[20:11] <LurkAshFlake> What do i use to open .pdf
[20:11] <LurkAshFlake> okular didn't work

[20:21] <tflgen2> Hi, I'm trying to boot ubuntu with an NFS root. My initrd seems to not like that and keeps bailing out with a unknown block error. Anyone willing to help guide me?
[20:25] <steven__> Question! Why can I not do a dual boot with Windows? Ubuntu already installed on system. I want to install Windows now and then Ubuntu over this one. My Win CD will not boot.
[20:26] <k1l> steven__: choose the cd in boot menu order
[20:26] <steven__> That does not seem to work
[20:26] <steven__> I hit F12 and choose CD
[20:27] <tflgen2> steven__: disconnect the hard drive and try again. Make sure your windows install is bootable
[20:27] <k1l> steven__: maybe the cd is corrupted. if you choose the cd and it doesnt work its more a windows issue since in bios state ubuntu doesnt touch anything
[20:28] <steven__> When I disconnect the hard drive do you mean to unplug the SATA cable from the motherboard?
[20:28] <BluesKaj_> steven__, is thei s a laptop? if so try Fn+F2
[20:28] <tflgen2> steven__: either from the mobo or the hdd, doesn't matter which end
[20:28] <steven__> Shutdown. Unplug. Unplug SATA cable. Replug cable. Plug and power up. Nothing else to it?
[20:29] <steven__> I just want to make sure I have it clear
[20:29] <tflgen2> steven__: shutdown, unplug power cable, unplug sata cable, replug power, boot
[20:29] <BluesKaj_> tflgen2, that never worked for me
[20:29] <steven__> Right
[20:29] <tflgen2> BluesKaj_: what didn't nfs root?
[20:29] <steven__> Why must I disconnect the hard drive though? Why will that work?
[20:30] <tflgen2> steven__: this is just to test if your disc is good
[20:30] <steven__> Ahhh!
[20:30] <k1l> steven__: honestly: you dont need to. if you choose the "cd" in the boot menu and it doesnt work the cd is wrong.
[20:30] <k1l> steven__: so make sure the cd works
[20:31] <tflgen2> looks like he (steven) has one box
[20:35] <bwe> Hi, lightdm on my Ubuntu 14.10 (upgraded to Xubuntu) fails to start: http://sprunge.us/hGLI Where can I search for the root of this undesired behavior?
[20:36] <stryngs> Would upgrading dpkg break a system?
[20:36] <stryngs> on an old ubuntu for instance
[20:36] <stryngs> to a newer dpkg than what apt wants?
[20:36] <Darknet> why would you not upgrate your ubuntu
[20:36] <Darknet> upgrade *
[20:36] <stryngs> just a random question =)
[20:36] <stryngs> It's moreso for the maemo system on my n900
[20:36] <stryngs> just curious if its as intrical as libc6 for instance
[20:38] <bwe> I've went through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM#Help.2C_I_can.27t_see_my_Desktop.21 w/out any success.
[20:40] <xar> is virt-manager and KVM are better than Virtualbox, please?
[20:40] <tflgen2> xar: depends on what you want to do
[20:41] <xar> tflgen2, would you please detail your answer?
[20:42] <k1l> xar: virtualbox is very userfriendly for the regular user
[20:43] <xar> k1l, I don't think that it's that userfriendly, look at this post of mine http://askubuntu.com/questions/578546/how-to-fix-virtualbox?noredirect=1#comment799171_578546
[20:43] <tflgen2> xar: if you are looking to virtualize many headless boxes and utilize primarily linux guests, my vote is for KVM. Windows guests and the occasional VM, I vot vbox
[20:43] <tflgen2> s/vot/vote
[20:43] <xar> k1l, this error remains unresolved
[20:44] <daftykins> that looks like you just don't have the product installed, nor the kernel module loaded
[20:44] <k1l> xar: how did you install virtualbox?
[20:44] <bwe> Okay, I have it: Failed to load modue "nvidia" (module does not exist). How can I switch to nouveau?
[20:45] <k1l> yes, i think there is the kernel module missing. like missing kernel headers or a wrong install
[20:45] <daftykins> bwe: it would have automatically were it installed. read the whole of /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[20:45] <xar> k1l, using ubuntu's app manager
[20:46] <k1l> xar: "dpkg -l | grep virtualbox"
[20:46] <bwe> daftykins: Thanks :)
[20:46] <xar> k1l, I didn't download it, I've just installed it from the app manager
[20:46] <vassagus> Is there any open source software free to use for bandwidth shaping?. I'm using shorewall as firewall and squid as proxy. Not sure if I can do that with squid.
[20:47] <vassagus> *easy to use, not free to use.
[20:48] <tony_> !list
[20:49] <bwe> daftykins: However, xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is installed: http://sprunge.us/KABK
[20:50] <daftykins> bwe: why have you added roughly one million kernel parmeters to your boot line?
[20:51] <daftykins> bwe: there's nothing wrong with nouvea, it's being used :)
[20:51] <bwe> daftykins: What's my problem?
[20:52] <daftykins> bwe: not X as far as i can tell. it's whatever is up with your lightdm / user config. check ~/ for any files not owned by your user
[20:53] <yana> )
[20:54] <bwe> daftykins: chowning the content of ~ to the $user did not solve the issue, hrmpf.
[20:54] <daftykins> bwe: oh dear, the shotgun approach. very unwise
[20:55] <xar> can someone help me on this please http://askubuntu.com/questions/578546/how-to-fix-virtualbox?noredirect=1#comment799171_578546?
[20:55] <xar> http://askubuntu.com/questions/578546/how-to-fix-virtualbox?noredirect=1#comment799171_578546
[20:55] <daftykins> xar: k1l asked you to run a command. you cannot progress until you do that
[20:56] <xar> daftykins, I did that
[20:56] <daftykins> where's the pastebin'd result?
[20:56] <bwe> daftykins: .Xauthority is owned by the user and is set to 177. Is that correct?
[20:56] <daftykins> bwe: pass.
[20:56] <xar> k1l, here is the result http://pastebin.com/8GP9q2Rc
[20:56] <xar> daftykins,
[20:56] <daftykins> '1' sounds wrong
[20:56] <daftykins> that would be execute 0o

[20:59] <beast> hi fader
[20:59] <xar> daftykins, so? any suggestion, please?
[20:59] <daftykins> bwe: that's not a bug, that's usually a case of users running startx as root or with sudo, which is unwise. have you done that?
[20:59] <daftykins> xar: no
[20:59] <bwe> daftykins: no
[20:59] <michaelaguiar> I am trying to mdadm —stop /dev/md0 — but it keeps telling me cannot get exclusive access
[20:59] <michaelaguiar> how can I get past this and stop it?
[21:00] <bwe> daftykins: How can I remove all user settings and get a clean, fresh setup for Xubuntu with lightdm on my system without re-installing the complete system?
[21:00] <daftykins> bwe: create a new user and test it
[21:02] <bwe> daftykins: Fine. I start lightdm with   sudo start lightdm    correct?
[21:02] <beast> i was wandering, still wating
[21:02] <daftykins> bwe: or sudo service lightdm start

[21:04] <OerHeks> xar, when vbox complaints about 'WORLD_WRITABLE' that is bad, seems like vbox, or its vm is writable 777
[21:04] <bwe> daftykins: (having added a user before)
[21:04] <daftykins> bwe: sorry, not familiar with that
[21:04] <OerHeks> maybe a backup vm restored with wrong permissions, from ntfs to ext4
[21:05] <xar> OerHeks, so how do I to fix that? I've tried to reinstall it, but, nothing has changed.
[21:05] <xar> OerHeks, I think that I need to delete some config files which vbox doesn't remove on its uninstall, but i can't find them
[21:07] <k1l> xar: do you have the kernel headers installed for your kernel?
[21:07] <k1l> xar: "uname -a" brings you what?
[21:08] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/7DsJ3TJ7
[21:08] <bwe> daftykins: It's .Xauthority file permissions. As unwise as you know me, I have deleted it without knowing what I am doing. How can I create it?
[21:08] <daftykins> bwe: what is?
[21:08] <OerHeks> that .Xauthority will be re-created when you reboot,
[21:09] <k1l> xar: "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers"
[21:10] <michaelaguiar> can anyone tell me how to mdadm stop /dev/md0 ???  It keeps telling me it cant get exclusive access
[21:10] <nicholasserra> Hello. Not sure where to ask this. Are there release notes for new ubuntu AMIs released for EC2? I see they release them often, but I can't find any changelog. I assume they're security releases. Thanks!
[21:10] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/AZuWaU3p
[21:10] <michaelaguiar> its not mounted
[21:11] <Diyar> Spac F U :) You will get the reslt based what you did :) and let her s you d everytime :)
[21:11] <Hoenheim> Would anyone know if I can install Ubuntu on a 1st gen x1 carbon and use some of the 2nd generations drivers on Ubuntu's website?
[21:11] <k1l> xar: ok, so the right linux headers are installed. did you receive an error when installing vbox? and did you restart after the install?
[21:11] <daftykins> Hoenheim: just keep the OS up to date, no need to pick and choose drivers. this isn't windows
[21:12] <OerHeks> michaelaguiar, mdadm --stop /dev/md0 # maybe?
[21:12] <Diyar> emma spac :) it's was taste Opertoin System?
[21:12] <xar> k1l, I didn't got any error on the installation, it occurs when I try to launch start one vm
[21:12] <Hoenheim> alrighty, thanks ^_^
[21:12] <bwe> OerHeks: Thanks. So who the heck changes the permissions of .Xauthority if not me?
[21:12] <michaelaguiar> OerHeks: Oh I know the command, it keeps telling me it cant get exclusive access
[21:12] <michaelaguiar> mdadm: Cannot get exclusive access to /dev/md0:Perhaps a running process, mounted filesystem or active volume group?
[21:14] <Diyar> spac emma .. I think you are need connecting between the wireless with different band I mean spac you use /b and let emma use /n because emma doing for everyone sharing connection wihtout drivers
[21:14] <OerHeks> bwe that error is a known bug, from an update/upgrade.
[21:14] <k1l> xar: did you mess with the file permissions anywhere in the system?
[21:14] <xar> k1l, nope
[21:14] <michaelaguiar> OerHeks: any idea how I can stop this damn thing?
[21:14] <k1l> xar: what is the output of "groups" in terminal?
[21:14] <bwe> OerHeks: How old is that bug?
[21:15] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/m2NyP96N
[21:15] <bwe> (There should be some automatic cross-checking of my logfiles against known bug reports, the syslog should print: YOU HAVE BUG #XXXX.)
[21:15] <OerHeks> michaelaguiar, dunno, do you think the disc went bad?
[21:15] <k1l> xar: vboxusers  missing as group
[21:16] <Diyar> spac even you have been protect but you need warry from your security system maybe something wrong with is reason some spam/ troll through it :)

[21:16] <Diyar> worry * spac
[21:17] <k1l> Diyar: please stop that in here
[21:17] <Diyar> k1l, it's not technical support for ubuntu?
[21:17] <k1l> xar: your user seems not to have the rights to run vbox since its not member of the group
[21:17] <Diyar> k1l, I help them with networking
[21:17] <Diyar> they have issue with ping between two IPs k1l
[21:18] <xar> k1l, but I'm the only root
[21:18] <k1l> Diyar: there are no messages from them in here. so please stop that.
[21:18] <k1l> xar: what? you are using root?
[21:18] <Diyar> k1l, they left to me before and now I am reply.. sorry for late
[21:19] <xar> k1l, i used to launch vms using the same user before until that error begins to occur
[21:19] <k1l> xar: put your user into the vboxusers group. then relogin to make sure the group is loaded. then try again
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> I get this error
[21:20] <xar> k1l, okay
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> mdadm: /dev/md0 has failed so using --add cannot work and might destroy
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> mdadm: data on /dev/sdb1.  You should stop the array and re-assemble it.
[21:20] <OerHeks> that would explain why, k1l +1
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> But it wont let me stop it!!!   How can I fix?
[21:20] <Diyar> :) brb .. take off from technology enjoy really life
[21:21] <k1l> xar: "sudo adduser $USER vboxusers "
[21:21] <RagingBuddha> Is it possible to "fill up" Linux' copy-paste ability? I wanna move 7 GB worth of photos from external disk to HHD and it's just doing nothing :/
[21:21] <OerHeks> k1l, just beiing user should solve it i guess :-D
[21:21] <daftykins> RagingBuddha: no, it might just be thinking
[21:21] <xar> k1l, (y)
[21:22] <daftykins> xar: you were root the whole time? oh dear :(
[21:22] <xar> daftykins, nope
[21:22] <michaelaguiar> mdadm wont stop my array, and im losing my mind
[21:23] <RagingBuddha> daftykins: I was renaming bounch of folders and then ctrl+c and ctrl+v stopped working and I had to do it only by mouse (c/p). And now when I closed "Files" and reopened folders it's copying. Is it normal to be this buggy or am I to blame?
[21:24] <daftykins> RagingBuddha: pass.
[21:24] <RagingBuddha> ?
[21:24] <daftykins> gameshow pass, i don't know
[21:24] <RagingBuddha> :D
[21:24] <RagingBuddha> Ok
[21:25] <xar> k1l, it still the same :p
[21:26] <pragmaticenigma> RagingBuddha, it's not buggy. You are trying to transfer several gigs of data. moving that volume of data takes a few moments for the system to analyse before it will actually move anything. It would have been wise to start with a couple files first, then start moving more of them
[21:26] <k1l> xar: ok, does vboxusers appear in "groups"?
[21:26] <xar> k1l, yes http://pastebin.com/BKzB5cTN
[21:27] <k1l> xar: then please make a right click on the VM you want to start and then choose "show log" please show the log
[21:27] <pragmaticenigma> RagingBuddha, leave it be for a while, if you have something like nmon installed you can see if there is any disk activity
[21:27] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/UsGN42cL
[21:28] <RagingBuddha> pragmaticenigma: it copied em once I closed and opened Files. But now I can't rename folder in my "Pictures". It's not saying I don't have permission, it's just ignoring my keyboard.
[21:28] <michaelaguiar> Anyone here know how to stop an mdadm array?
[21:28] <michaelaguiar> I know the command - but it keeps telling me I don’t have exclusive access
[21:29] <k1l> xar: "World writable: '/usr'"
[21:29] <pragmaticenigma> RagingBuddha, if the system isn't doing anything, you might want to try rebooting...
[21:29] <k1l> xar: you seem to have messed with your file permissions :/ ?
[21:29] <Josh1503> Can anyone help me with sudo wget? Trying to use it to create a file but it's incorrectly naming the file
[21:29] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503, please show us the command you are using
[21:29] <xar> k1l, i don't remember doing that
[21:30] <Josh1503> pragmaticenigma: sudo wget -0 /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-rat5.conf https://iam.tj/projects/misc/rat5.conf
[21:30] <k1l> xar: "ls -al /"
[21:31] <Josh1503> It's for problems I've been having with my mouse not targetting the top window
[21:31] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/Ni0T7UQa
[21:31] <k1l> xar: yes, too much folders have write acces. the permissions are a mess.
[21:32] <k1l> xar: seems like you did a chmod 777 on several folders
[21:32] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503,  change the zero into the capital letter 'O'
[21:32] <k1l> xar: sudo chmod o-w /usr
[21:32] <Josh1503> Aaaaah ok, thanks. Will try it
[21:32] <Josh1503> If I can get into terminal -_-
[21:32] <k1l> xar: that will fix that vbox issue. but i would consider a reinstall of the system since a lot permissions are wrong and that is not fixable.
[21:33] <xar> k1l, it WORKS !!!
[21:33] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503, if your terminal window is open, you can use Alt + Tab to switch to that window
[21:33] <xar> k1l, I haven't understood why the error triggers when the write permission is enabled
[21:33] <xar> k1l, thank you so much!
[21:33] <Josh1503> Yeah I know :P Used windows key & searched for it
[21:34] <k1l> xar: that is the error. your file-permissions give all access to any program. your system is very vulnerable
[21:34] <pragmaticenigma> What's a windows key? :-P
[21:35] <Josh1503> Ok I think I just need to delete the other duplicates, how would I do that in Terminal? :3
[21:35] <schoppenhauer> hello. how can I configure kde to do pm-suspend-hybrid instead of pm-suspend and pm-hibernate? (or at least give me an option to do so?)
[21:37] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503, I'm not sure if you posted more details about the situation than I saw. Could you explain about the duplicate files?
[21:37] <Josh1503> I'll pm you :P
[21:41] <cromagi> question

[22:11] <maxade> lotuspsychje, yes
[22:11] <bellow> I am trying to reconnect my Magnavox MBP 5120 blu-ray player to my Linksys routers wifi (which I have done before without trouble) and I am getting DHCP cannot be acquired. I have change the IP Address to manual on the blu-ray player without changing the IP address itself and no error. I have checked the routers settings and DHCP is enabled. Is the
[22:11] <maxade> i have openssl installed
[22:11] <bellow> re a way to fix this?
[22:11] <maxade> but not for programming
[22:12] <pilsner_> back
[22:12] <lotuspsychje> maxade: not sure wich package you need for that, apt-cache show a whole list
[22:12] <lotuspsychje> bellow: check the ##networking channel
[22:13] <bellow> lotuspsychje: They will not lt me talk
[22:13] <bellow> or help me
[22:13] <agent_white> Afternoon!
[22:13] <ablest1980> any programs better then wine for running window programs on ubuntu?
[22:14] <lotuspsychje> !info playonlinux | ablest1980
[22:14] <lotuspsychje> agent_white: hello mate
[22:14] <schoppenhauer> *push* how can I configure kde to do pm-suspend-hybrid instead of pm-suspend and pm-hibernate? (or at least give me an option to do so?)
[22:14] <ablest1980> !info playonlinux
[22:15] <maxade> lotuspsychje, building from source, hopefully that works
[22:15] <lotuspsychje> maxade: good luck :p
[22:15] <ablest1980> lotuspsychje is playonlinux available at ubuntu software center?
[22:15] <pilsner_> bellow ifup ifdown?
[22:15] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: you can sudo apt-get install playonlinux (from terminal)
[22:16] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: wich software are you trying to run on ubuntu?
[22:16] <ablest1980> ubuntu software center says playonlinux is a game
[22:17] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: you can install windows software on it also
[22:17] <ablest1980> kindle for pc,britannica and esword bible software
[22:17] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: you can check their database online
[22:18] <ablest1980> do i need wine then playonliunx?
[22:20] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: if you install it, it will install all depending packages also
[22:20] <pilsner_> How do i see a disk not mounted?
[22:20] <ablest1980> ok lotus ty
[22:20] <ablest1980> :)
[22:21] <budg> what the hell, I installed ubuntu, and it has amazon software on it
[22:21] <ablest1980> lol
[22:22] <pilsner_> more hell than amazon on it...you have to learn stuff about how computer works
[22:24] <budg> like how to uninstall amazon?
[22:24] <k1l> budg: see privacy settings in system settings
[22:25] <pilsner_> Nope learn about computers the world will be a better place
[22:25] <k1l> and fyi, the backing servers are shut down. so its not sending to amazon
[22:25] <Aqua> if I do ¨cat /dev/block/mmblck0p25 > mmblck0p25.raw¨, does that clone the partition bit for bit into a raw file?
[22:25] <RagingBuddha> Any photographer?
[22:26] <pilsner_> vgfk.se/
[22:28] <bellow> I am trying to reprint a couple of picture and the print photo on my printer makes them too small so I was going to scan them but my scan menu has no scan to computer. I press scan menu and get the following can and reprint, Scan to memory card, HP Photosmart Share(which is grayed out) and scan to computer I press down to the scan to computer and i
[22:28] <bellow> t says No scan options Refer to device documentation to troubleshoot Press ok to continue. Now I have scanned from this printer before. Is there anyway to get it to scan again. I have the software installed
[22:30] <pilsner_> Shit im drunk and Swedish
[22:30] <budg> ubuntu keeps crashing
[22:31] <Aqua> if I do ¨cat /dev/block/mmblck0p25 > mmblck0p25.raw¨, does that clone the partition bit for bit into a raw file?
[22:31] <imbezol> Aqua: use dd
[22:31] <Helperx> i have a question would it be bad to use reiserfs for boot partiton for faster boot or ext2?
[22:31] <Aqua> dd does the same but slower right imbezol ?
[22:32] <Helperx> also is it wrong to use reisefs being that he killed someone idk moral issue
[22:33] <imbezol> Aqua: i've never seen someone try to copy a partition with cat
[22:33] <daftykins> Helperx: separate /boot is about as much of a waste of time as using reiserfs :)
[22:33] <imbezol> Aqua: i know that dd was pretty much meant for that
[22:33] <imbezol> Aqua: it allows you to set your block size, see progress, etc
[22:33] <Walex> imbezol: it is just probably a bit slower than 'dd'
[22:33] <Stary2001> well now you have
[22:33] <Stary2001> :p
[22:33] <pilsner_>  reiserfs for boot partiton for faster boot or ext2.... ill go for ext3.....
[22:33] <Helperx> so using a different filsystem for boot wont make it fster?
[22:34] <Helperx> faster*
[22:34] <Helperx> also for root partiton im not sure if i shuld use xfs or jfs?
[22:34] <Aqua> ah, alright imbezol. well, im using cat atm along with pv for the progress
[22:34] <Helperx> whats faster?
[22:34] <irreverant> i have an a ssd driver hooked up through a usb connection
[22:35] <irreverant> and i'm running ubuntu in a vmware player
[22:35] <irreverant> on my windows box
[22:35] <pilsner_> go for ext3 easier to rebuild.......
[22:35] <irreverant> http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/tr-dojo/reset-windows-passwords-with-the-help-of-linux/
[22:35] <irreverant> is what i'm trying to accomplish
[22:35] <irreverant> how can i navigate in a terminal window to the mounted windows drive?
[22:35] <Helperx> hm
[22:35] <Aqua> imbezol, i need to get a partition of my android phone which wiped itself for some reason. so i can later get the lost files out of the raw file
[22:35] <irreverant> it wants me to use nautilus but i don't see it
[22:36] <Helperx> aqua are you trying to recover it from the actual internal storage of the android
[22:36] <imbezol> Aqua: gotcha. ddrescue is also great for backing up partitions with errors
[22:36] <Helperx> it can be done i have done it but its a long procedure
[22:36] <bellow> I am trying to reconnect my Magnavox MBP 5120 blu-ray player to my Linksys routers wifi (which I have done before without trouble) and I am getting DHCP cannot be acquired. I have change the IP Address to manual on the blu-ray player without changing the IP address itself and no error. I have checked the routers settings and DHCP is enabled. Is the
[22:36] <bellow> re a way to fix this?
[22:36] <imbezol> Aqua: it can be told to skip bad / unreadable blocks etc
[22:36] <daftykins> irreverant: pretty terrible method, there are far easier ways
[22:36] <imbezol> Aqua: something like cat or regular dd would choke at those spots
[22:37] <agent_white> bellow: Hop into your router and add a DHCP reservation for your bluray player to the IP you gave it.
[22:37] <OerHeks> irreverant, changing passwords, tru ubuntu in a VM, on the windows box you want to edit?
[22:37] <irreverant> its running windows 8
[22:37] <irreverant> yes
[22:37] <Aqua> I´m not yet advanced enough to understand all of it. So I´m hoping this just works imbezol....
[22:38] <agent_white> Aqua: Excuses to learn are the best excuses!
[22:38] <imbezol> irreverant: it's probably a lot easier to just download a bootable iso made explicitly to do what you're attempting to do
[22:38] <OerHeks> that guide says boot a live iso, not a vm. escaping from a vm is difficult.
[22:38] <pilsner_> test freenas
[22:39] <irreverant> i tried everything before this method
[22:39] <daftykins> irreverant: that doesn't seem likely given there are easier ways :)
[22:39] <imbezol> everything hey? :)
[22:39] <Aqua> Yeah agent_white. I´ll probably take away the write permissions of the /data/media partition so that I can use my phone safely without destroying bits of leftover data.
[22:39] <irreverant> daftykins, i think i did it successfully
[22:39] <bellow> agent_white: Trried that
[22:40] <daftykins> irreverant: why are you here then? if you've done it...
[22:40] <pilsner_> Linnnux is the future, but you nead to know what yoour doing....
[22:40] <compdoc> I am the future
[22:41] <pilsner_> im the past and drunk..........
[22:41] <agent_white> Aqua: Sounds like the best option is to just dd the device, then hope for the best :)
[22:41] <daftykins> !ot | pilsner_
[22:41] <ablest1980> youre past and youre out
[22:41] <irreverant> daftykins, cause i was impatient and wasn't sure, didn't trust myself
[22:41] <irreverant> Yes I did get it
[22:41] <pilsner_> and drunk...
[22:41] <ablest1980> drunk as a shunk?
[22:41] <irreverant> I was able to unlock the the Local Administrator account for windows 8 and reset the password to blank
[22:42] <agent_white> bellow: Remove the dhcp reservation, remove the ip you assigned to the bluray player, and let dhcp do the work.   Are you familiar with packet capture methods? (tcpdump, wireshark... etc.) It would be very helpful to see what's on the wire.
[22:42] <daftykins> irreverant: then you don't need to be here anymore, Windows talk is off topic here.
[22:42] <bellow> agent_white:I have
[22:42] <irreverant> later
[22:42] <bellow> does not help
[22:42] <agent_white> bellow: Have you done a packet capture?
[22:42] <pilsner_> ill still tranlata from Swdish to what ewrver this is
[22:42] <agent_white> bellow: You will literally see what the issue is, I guarantee it.
[22:42] <bellow> agent_white: I do not know how
[22:43] <Aqua> agent_white, are you sure dd does something different than im doing with cat right now? i looked up some differences but it seems to be doing the same, just dd has some extra special options that are rarely used on modern hardware
[22:43] <agent_white> bellow: Are you familiar with wireshark?
[22:43] <daftykins> bellow: you should probably ask this in ##networking since it doesn't have anything to do with ubuntu
[22:43] <bellow> nope
[22:43] <bellow> daftykins: I cannaot ask there
[22:43] <daftykins> why?
[22:44] <bellow> == Cannot send message to channel, you are not voiced
[22:44] <daftykins> !register | bellow
[22:44] <daftykins> bellow: not registering on freenode does not make all of your questions ubuntu support ones, i'm afraid
[22:44] <pilsner_> uuid to /dev????
[22:44] <agent_white> Aqua: Not sure what `cat` command you're doing... but dd copies blocks, which is (I believe) the 'closest to the metal' copy available on linux.
[22:44] <bellow> daftykins:I am
[22:44] <agent_white> Aqua: So... I would recommend doing both! Your `cat` and `dd` :)
[22:44] <agent_white> Why not, eh?
[22:45] <sdika> anybody here good with the linux terminal command that can help me?
[22:45] <daftykins> !ask | sdika
[22:45] <agent_white> sdika: Ask, don't ask to ask!
[22:46] <Aqua> alright agent_white. ill lock the /data/media after the cat finished, and then ill do the dd later :). after that ill just unlock it again and use it again because ive made exact copies of them
[22:46] <maxvi> how can I disable snapping window in cinnamon DE ? is cinnamon not use compiz ?
[22:47] <Helperx> this channel is ubuntu not linux mint
[22:47] <Aqua> agent_white, any recomendations to recover files from the raw file? testdisk maybe?
[22:47] <agent_white> Aqua: Sounds like a plan!  May even be able to skip on the dd once you see how successful the cat worked
[22:47] <daftykins> bellow: anyway, 100% likely is you should reboot that router or re-enter the wireless password as it could be wrong
[22:47] <bellow> Password is right
[22:48] <Aqua> agent_white, how do i check how succesful the cat was? by trying to recover files from it?
[22:48] <daftykins> Helperx: who was that comment aimed at? you should use nicknames so everyone knows
[22:48] <maxvi> Helperx: I am not using mint, I use  cinnamon de but nobody knows nothing about that setting in archlinux, linuxmint, linux channels :(
[22:48] <daftykins> bellow: re-enter it anyway :)
[22:48] <bellow> UI HAVE
[22:48] <daftykins> bellow: using caps won't get you anywhere
[22:48] <Helperx> i know alot aobut arch linux
[22:48] <agent_white> Aqua: What command are you doing exactly? -- But yup, that's the best way!
[22:49] <sdika> theres a website that has albanian music i want to download, each folder on the website has the songs listed and i have to manually right click save target as to download.... my question is there a easier way to download all the songs in each folder into my music folder using linux terminal??
[22:49] <Helperx> i can answer your question maxvi
[22:49] <Aqua> agent_white: adb shell su -c "cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p25" | pv > mmcblk0p25.raw
[22:50] <sdika> or better yet download all the songs on the server website onto my harddrive?
[22:50] <maxvi> Helperx: I saw dconf editor and found nothing about that , I know how I can do it in ccsm (window -> snapping window) but seems like cinnamon don't use it
[22:50] <Helperx> what are you trying to actually do maxvi
[22:51] <bellow> I have to enter the passkey everytime
[22:51] <bellow> still get the error
[22:51] <agent_white> Aqua: Oh! Already dumping blocks there so you'll be fine without dd.  Once it's finished just mount it and check to see if all your files are there :)
[22:52] <daftykins> bellow: that's probably your player's way of saying "no, this is wrong" else it would store it. anyway, off topic here.
[22:52] <bellow> It is not wronf
[22:52] <Aqua> I did one cat of the full device before this agent_white
[22:52] <maxvi> Helperx: I try to disable "snapping window" in cinnamon like that checkbox in ubuntu (unity). see "Snapping Window" checkbox https://manijshrestha.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/compiz-win.png
[22:52] <Aqua> but testdisk didnt find partitions
[22:52] <Aqua> so now i do this one
[22:52] <Aqua> all the data got wiped of it after an usb error agent_white
[22:53] <Helperx> what distro are you using maxvi
[22:53] <Aqua> hope to find that back
[22:53] <maxvi> Helperx: arch with cinnamon DE
[22:53] <EriC^^> ^^^ ???
[22:53] <daftykins> maxvi: you should not be in here.
[22:54] <daftykins> !arch
[22:54] <maxvi> Helperx: it depends on distro ? I thought it depends only on DE.
[22:54] <daftykins> damn, no factoid
[22:54] <agent_white> Aqua: Hm... what about the `mount` route instead? -- use `fdisk -l` to find the startblock/offset of the partition you want to mount, then just mount through `mount`
[22:54] <Helperx> well
[22:54] <maxvi> daftykins: I was there and #linuxmint and #linux and and and :)
[22:54] <agent_white> Aqua: This better explains it -- http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/how-to-mount-img-file-882386/
[22:54] <daftykins> maxvi: yep, not getting a reply doesn't make your problem an ubuntu one
[22:55] <daftykins> i don't take my car to the plumber to get fixed, just because the mechanic is busy
[22:55] <Helperx> first of all i suggest you acutally use linux mint if your preferred desktop environment is cinnanon
[22:56] <Aqua> agent_white, does that work for raw files too?
[22:56] <Helperx> using arch and then using cinannon is counter initituative
[22:56] <vacho> can someone help me investigate if my machine is being used for botnet?
[22:56] <Helperx> its like installing unity on arch
[22:56] <ruskiesgg> maxvi: it may be a compiz setting
[22:56] <Helperx> lol
[22:57] <agent_white> Aqua: Yessir!
[22:57] <pilsner_> fucked up ifconfig....
[22:57] <Helperx> i strongly recommend using kde in arch
[22:57] <cyberpolice> how can i login to welcome screen without physical keyboard? is there touch/virtual keyboard i can use
[22:58] <Aqua> thank you so much agent_white , i really apreciate it
[22:58] <ubuntu-studio> olavoteixera
[22:58] <Helperx> and if your not using an amd computer than use gnome
[22:58] <Aqua> agent_white, would deleted files also show up with the mount? or do i need to do something extra for that?
[22:58] <agent_white> Aqua: No worries! Hope it all goes well!
[22:58] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: what's AMD have to do with gnome
[22:58] <Helperx> proprietry driver wont allow gnome
[22:59] <agent_white> Aqua: Ahhh hrm... I'm not sure what exactly happens to deleted files in Android? Not quite sure about that.
[22:59] <Aqua> Probably the same as in linux
[22:59] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: bull.
[22:59] <Aqua> it does use ext4 agent_white
[22:59] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: I done it
[22:59] <Helperx> using arch?
[22:59] <Aqua> and someone used this method with testdisk
[23:01] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: no with ubuntu. Why pull my hair out with arch when ubuntu just works in most cases,
[23:01] <Helperx> lol im talking about arch and gnome
[23:01] <Helperx> and or feodra
[23:02] <Helperx> with ubuntu yea its easy lol
[23:02] <Helperx> i have done it so many times lol
[23:02] <freeroute> hi, I'm trying to find the resize2fs program for 14.04 without any luck. I'm trying to resize my LVM LV as per this document - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/40702/how-to-manage-and-use-lvm-logical-volume-management-in-ubuntu/?PageSpeed=noscript
[23:02] <agent_white> Aqua: Hm... I'm not familiar with undeleting to be honest!  Though after some searching, the `extundelete` tool looks promising.
[23:03] <agent_white> Helperx: KDE on Arch? Why ruin it with bloat? i3 or awesome ftw :)
[23:03] <EriC^^> freeroute: type echo $PATH
[23:03] <Helperx> well cuz i have amd lol
[23:03] <agent_white> wat
[23:04] <Helperx> and using propierty drivers dont work well on other enviroments
[23:04] <PeQuEnO_TuX> whats up all
[23:04] <agent_white> Heh... I think you may be missing a step somewhere ;)
[23:04] <agent_white> That is certainly not true.
[23:04] <agent_white> PeQuEnO_TuX: \o
[23:04] <Aqua> Thanks agent_white, I´ll give those things a try, most important is I´ve got an exact copy so I can safely use my phone again and so I can keep on trying! I´ll be going soon, have a nice evening.
[23:05] <PeQuEnO_TuX> does any1 have experience with ubuntu and ppc computs
[23:05] <agent_white> Aqua: Exactly! And know you know how to clone any block device in the future! :D Cheers!
[23:05] <agent_white> !ask | PeQuEnO_TuX
[23:06] <Marasgeon> can I make backspace to send me to the previous folder and not in the parent folder in nautilus?
[23:08] <wavis> I get a blinking cursor on a black low res screen when booting from the latest live usb image 14.10 desktop. what's the issue?
[23:09] <EriC^^> !nomodeset | wavis try this
[23:10] <EriC^^> Marasgeon: i found something cool, press alt+left arrow
[23:10] <freeroute> EriC^^: sorry I have to resort to a screenshot but I have no space left on there to add a pastebin alias to .bashrc - http://i.imgur.com/f4PPQ5I.png
[23:11] <freeroute> hence the need to resize :p
[23:11] <EriC^^> yikes
[23:11] <budg> thoughts on best browser for ubuntu?
[23:11] <freeroute> budg: w3m hands down the best
[23:12] <EriC^^> !find resize2fs
[23:12] <freeroute> ah cool lemme see
[23:12] <Marasgeon> EriC^^: can i set this function with backspace?
[23:12] <freeroute> I hope I can install that lol
[23:12] <EriC^^> Marasgeon: i don't know
[23:13] <Marasgeon> ok man thanks anyway
[23:13] <EriC^^> freeroute: you need to install e2fsprogs
[23:14] <freeroute> apparently I already have e2fsprogs
[23:14] <freeroute> this is not a good sign :(
[23:14] <EriC^^> freeroute: that's odd
[23:14] <Exploith> apple should've never release 4gb ram mac minis. its impossible to do anything on it. trying to get my boss to get me more ram is hard hell
[23:14] <EriC^^> type ls -ld /sbin/resize2fs
[23:14] <Exploith> hmm
[23:16] <budg> is it ok that there are a lot of y's being typed automatically in bash while I bashed' an sh file?
[23:16] <EriC^^> freeroute: ^
[23:16] <ruskiesgg> Exploith: What do u expect from a company that brainwashed its users into thinking a one button mouse was better than two buttons for years.
[23:17] <budg> i'm getting worried that i should have just used the gui
[23:18] <freeroute> EriC^^: this is very strange, it found it... but I think the situation got worse - http://imgur.com/c0Fc0kP
[23:18] <freeroute> this could mean that it can't resize because there is no space
[23:19] <freeroute> wait, perhaps I should unmount it first?
[23:20] <EriC^^> yeah, try that
[23:24] <PeQuEnO_TuX> back
[23:25] <PeQuEnO_TuX> ok ubottu ill try do right my next questions but i already find the problem
[23:32] <michaelaguiar> I have a software raid, using mdadm I do assemble —scan and it says assembled from 22 drives and 2 spares, not enough to start the array
[23:32] <michaelaguiar> mdstat says inactive, and has all the drives marked spare (S)
[23:33] <michaelaguiar> can someone give me a hand getting this back up?
[23:38] <freeroute> man this LVM...
[23:39] <compdoc> I hate lvm
[23:40] <daftykins> yeah, i never use it.
[23:40] <daftykins> 'tis black magic to me
[23:51] <michaelaguiar> ok I got my array up, but still 2 drives are marked as spare.  How can I get those activated?  Anyone know?  mdadm
[23:52] <daftykins> pretty sure i said they were damaged earlier
[23:52] <daftykins> so i would work on them first.
[23:52] <michaelaguiar> Well I think I got it all figured out, just trying to get the spares back in now
[23:52] <daftykins> but they're reporting errors?
[23:52] <daftykins> = they're unhappy
[23:55] <supay> hey, i can install any gui environment for ubuntu, and that wont affect anything else, right?
[23:55] <EriC^^> supay: not really
[23:55] <supay> EriC^^: what would you suggest for a virtual machine? i'd like to keep it light..
[23:55] <supay> gnome makes it way too slow, and i dont really need it
[23:56] <EriC^^> xubuntu or lxde
[23:56] <EriC^^> lxde would be pretty quicker, i find xubuntu with arch even slow in a vm
[23:56] <EriC^^> *xcfe
[23:56] <supay> EriC^^: ah, perfect! is there something like sudo apt-get install lxde or something?
[23:56] <supay> xcfe?
[23:56] <EriC^^> *xfce
[23:57] <raven_> is there a way I can just "upgrade" to ubuntu or another os?  :O
[23:58] <EriC^^> supay: do you want lxde or xfce?
[23:58] <freeroute> ok... change of strategy. Is the ~/.Skype dir enough to give me logs of all messages which have been for that user or do I have to get more stuff from the filesystem?
[23:58] <supay> EriC^^: whichever is faster
[23:58] <raven_> how do i do that?
[23:58] <EriC^^> lxde is
[23:58] <daftykins> raven_: if you partitioned it with a separate /home, you could keep formatting / and installing whichever distro there, almost.
[23:58] <supay> EriC^^: ah, awesome! thanks :)

[19:23] <marcopolo> Hi, is there a way to change what terminal mate-tweaks opens when i press f12?
[19:23] <marcopolo> by default it opens tilda
[19:23] <marcopolo> i want it to open mate terminal
[19:27] <sixwheeledbeast> not sure i understand the question regarding mate-tweaks. the "Preferred Applications" in Prefs will change the default terminal?
[19:29] <marcopolo> My preferred application is mate terminal, but mate tweaks , i should have specified the drop down terminal opens tilda by default
[19:29] <marcopolo> There doesnt seem to be an option to change which terminal you want the drop down terminal to be , you just check it and it opens tilda it doesnt open preferred terminal by default
