[00:00] <daftykins> robert__: 7 is installed to this 3TB yes? you can only boot from a 3TB disk if it's GPT formatted. GPT formatted disks can only be booted by UEFI systems
[00:00] <daftykins> the rest of the issues could be related
[00:00] <UbuntuNoob> Anybody know of a lightweight Ubuntu app that listens to an IP port and initiates shutdown when a specific command is received on that port?
[00:00] <daftykins> UbuntuNoob: SSH? :)
[00:01] <robert__> daftykins: no 7 isn't installed on the disk. the disk is completely blank. i have tried formatting it as gpt, but that makes no difference.
[00:01] <daftykins> robert__: oh ok so it's a slave only, fair enough. sounds like the two systems are too old to address it correctly. was that through windows?
[00:02] <Slart> UbuntuNoob: aren't there some port-knocker daemons you could use? or even some port knocking firewall tutorials?
[00:02] <UbuntuNoob> daftykins: no, the trigger is coming from an embedded device, not a true OS, so all I can do is send a string to an IP port...
[00:02] <Slart> UbuntuNoob: this seems like a good place to start http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8528392/remotely-shutdown-reboot-linux-boxes-without-ssh
[00:03] <UbuntuNoob> Slart: Thanks -- I'll take a look
[00:04] <robert__> daftykins: windows simply can't see the extra 1tb. linux can see it, but not as part of the same device as the rest of the disk. are you saying that machines built 5 or 6 years ago didn't have support for >2tb drives?
[00:05] <daftykins> robert__: i would definitely expect the win7 system to be able to see the whole disk as one volume. looked into BIOS updates?
[00:07] <robert__> daftykins: the bios on the thinkpad is up to date, but the dell might well not be. i'll check it out. that's a good idea. thanks.
[00:07] <daftykins> robert__: no problemo! do you have the exact disk make + model also?
[00:09] <robert__> daftykins: it's a seagate barracuda st3000dm001
[00:10] <adasd> !screenshot
[00:10] <milosz1> jest ktoś z polski ?
[00:12] <daftykins> robert__: have you also checked out this 'Seagate DiscWizard' program that allegedly solves 2TB limitation issues?
[00:12] <daftykins> http://www.seagate.com/gb/en/support/internal-hard-drives/desktop-hard-drives/barracuda-xt/discwizard-master-dl/
[00:15] <robert__> daftykins: thanks. i'll check it out. i can't work out whether it's os-dependent, but then i haven't got any data to lose by trying....
[00:19] <L-sama> hi
[00:19] <L-sama> is it true that backtrack linux is base don ubuntu?
[00:19] <wilee-nilee> !backtrack | L-sama
[00:20] <L-sama> its because #backtrack-linux is silenced
[00:20] <wilee-nilee> L-sama, backtrarck is eol and not supported here.
[00:20] <L-sama> I know
[00:20] <L-sama> but if you mention it it confirms my question
[00:20] <L-sama> that its linux based
[00:20] <L-sama> ubuntu*
[00:21] <wilee-nilee> L-sama, Not supported period, not my decision. ;)
[00:21] <L-sama> aint it in direct competition with nubuntu?
[00:21] <robert__> daftykins: i've just read up on disk wizard and it looks like it's just for windows.
[00:22] <daftykins> robert__: ah sure but wouldn't hurt to run it and see what's going on?
[00:22] <robert__> daftykins: i suppose so...
[00:24] <L-sama> is nubuntu supported here?
[00:25] <daftykins> never even heard of it
[00:26] <Jordan_U> L-sama: Nubuntu appears to be discontinued, so I don't think it's supported anywhere.
[00:26] <L-sama> as I though backtrack probably killed it
[00:28] <mns2> Hello. DeVeDe doesn't seem to scale video sizes down at all with lower bitrates for DVDs. Does anyone know of a more reliable DVD authoring tool? (preferably with a gui)
[00:30] <styol> Hey there. I am performing some benchmarks against an Ubuntu 12.04 server that is load balancing requests using HAProxy and I'm having trouble identifying the source of connection resets being returned to the client during these high concurrency benchmarks. Any recommendations on where one might be able to start isolating the source of this issue or anything worth examining further?
[00:32] <daftykins> !server | styol
[00:32] <styol> thanks daftykins
[00:32] <daftykins> no problem sir o/
[00:36] <mns2> pls
[00:36] <wilee-nilee> mns2, Most videos are compressed already I believe.
[00:36] <wilee-nilee> If I understand you here
[00:37] <mns2> okay but if you put it on a dvd it has to be encoded for dvd players right?
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> mns2, Not sure.
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> I would it is already mns2
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> think
[00:37] <mns2> When I put a 1 gb movie on a 4.7 gb dvd disk, it says there isn't enough space due to how long it is.
[00:38] <mns2> (can only fit 2 hrs)
[00:38] <reisio> mns2: it?
[00:38] <wilee-nilee> mns2, You have dvd formatted as data? use nicks as well please
[00:38] <reisio> mns2: what format is this "1 gb movie"?
[00:38] <zoidberg-> win 32
[00:38] <Jordan_U> mns2: How are you "putting the movie" on the disk? mpeg2, the format used in Video DVDs, is a verry ineficient codec.
[00:39] <mns2> For the above example, Brasero
[00:39] <wilee-nilee> !who | mns2 makes things easier
[00:39] <rusty0101> mns2, when you burn a video dvd, the video file is a mpeg2 video file. I storngly suspect that the 1 gig file you are starting with is either an mp4 or xvid file that is more compressed.
[00:39] <Jordan_U> mns2: Do you want to use this DVD in actual DVD players or just in other computers?
[00:40] <mns2> Actual DVD players.
[00:40] <reisio> the only DVD you need is one that plays 'GET A MEDIA PC OR SMART TV' in a loop
[00:40] <mns2> And it's mp4
[00:40] <themanwithnoface> is there such a thing or way to make it so that if you enter a string into google and you don't like the results you click 'search' again and if google recognizes that it is the exact same string it adjusts the time in 'search tools'  to the last 5 years, or past year past 24 hours. etc. ?
[00:40] <reisio> mns2: whatever software you're using probably re-encodes to fit the space available exactly
[00:40] <reisio> mns2: you'd have to reduce the quality to get it smaller
[00:41] <mns2> That's the problem. DeVeDe manages to not re-encode correctly
[00:41] <reisio> themanwithnoface: ?
[00:41] <mns2> It makes the resulting file too big.
[00:41] <reisio> mns2: well that's no surprise, DVD mastering is arcane
[00:41] <reisio> I wouldn't recommend it
[00:41] <reisio> not in 2013, not in 1995
[00:41] <Jordan_U> mns2: It's not re-encoding correctly, it's simply re-encoding with the best compression you can get with mpeg2 (poor). How long is the actual video?
[00:41] <rusty0101> Alternatively you may be able to re-encode to dvd mpeg2 to a multi-layer dvd with capacities greater than 4.7 gig.
[00:42] <Jordan_U> mns2: Not re-encoding incorrectly I mean.
[00:42] <mns2> Trying to put two videos onto one dvd.
[00:42] <reisio> mns2: tell your software about both videos
[00:42] <mns2> DeVeDe has options for lowing resulting bitrate, but none of them do anything.
[00:42] <mns2> I did
[00:42] <reisio> well like I said, it's a huge PITA
[00:42] <reisio> if you insist on wasting your time with this, try using tovid
[00:43] <reisio> mns2: with the -ffmpeg option
[00:43] <themanwithnoface> reisio:  like maybe a macro?  :<
[00:43] <reisio> (that is, with ffmpeg, not subtracting ffmpeg)
[00:43] <mns2> Please stop telling me to not do what I'm doing? This is for a friend who does not have a computer and is technology illiterate.
[00:43] <reisio> themanwithnoface: ?
[00:44] <reisio> mns2: all the more reason to get them a smart device instead of spend time on a DVD
[00:44] <dr_willis> devede has worked well for me in the past
[00:44] <dr_willis> just don't try to fit 6 hours onto a DVD.    :)
[00:44] <RealDrProxy> Oi! Anyone have good resources or advice for build an Ubuntu fork or derivative? I've been working with ubuntu-builder but it seems half-assed.
[00:45] <dr_willis> !remaster
[00:45] <reisio> probably take you six hours just to get a usable copy
[00:45] <dr_willis> RealDrProxy:  that's always been a bit of a rough area
[00:45] <RealDrProxy> Thanks for the quick response guys.
[00:46] <RealDrProxy> That kinda sucks. I guess I'll stick to ubuntu-builder as that is the only thing that isn't completely outdated.
[00:46] <mns2> I will look at ToVid. Thank you. :)
[00:46] <RealDrProxy> Remastersys gave me issues when I first tried to use it. I think it bricked the dev box I was working off of.
[00:47] <reisio> you think you bricked?
[00:47] <dr_willis> brick-a-Barack.
[00:48] <tauntaun> Can't get rc script to trigger on boot. This is a cloud instance running at run level 2. Used the update-rc command. I've gotten this to work before; don't know why there's no joy today. Ideas?
[00:49] <dr_willis> i dident think ubuntu used runlevels like many distros.  use the upstart tools tauntaun . not the older sysv tools
[00:49] <dr_willis> !upstart
[00:50] <dr_willis> !runlevel
[00:50] <tauntaun> ok, thanks, I'll try it.
[00:50] <RealDrProxy> Bricked the OS at least. Remastersys borked a few things so I just re-imaged it.
[00:51] <thurstylark> how do I get ubuntu 10.04 to do a release upgrade?

[01:04] <Telendrith> Hi, has anyone tried to load Ubuntu on a HP Envy Rove?
[01:04] <wilee-nilee> !poll | Telendrith
[01:05] <Guest91322> [5~:l #testchan
[01:05] <thurstylark> daftykins: it wasn't because whatever build my vps provider was using didn't have update-manager-core installed. installed that, and now I'm just humming along.
[01:05] <reisio> wrong spammy factoid :p
[01:05] <thurstylark> daftykins: my main problem is that the latest release that said vps provider supports in a clean install is 11.04, so i have to update from 10.04 :P
[01:05] <reisio> Telendrith: probably someone has, does that help you? :p
[01:06] <Telendrith> Yea
[01:06] <reisio> great
[01:06] <wilee-nilee> still a poll none the less
[01:06] <daftykins> thurstylark: that's weird of them. you certainly don't want non-LTS
[01:07] <Telendrith> I was hoping to get some more info before I dumped a grand on a tablet - and it wasn't a poll question, it a hey, is  it compatible out of the box
[01:07] <wilee-nilee> Telendrith, might be info here in general, there are certified computers. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/make/HP/
[01:08] <Telendrith> wilee-nilee: Thanks, thats what I was looking for
[01:08] <reisio> Telendrith: is there only one model named 'rove'? I doubt it
[01:10] <wilee-nilee> Telendrith, Not a poll in your reasoning maybe but here it is. ;)
[01:11] <thurstylark> daftykins: Yep. 'tis why i will be updating before i do anything else
[01:12] <daftykins> thurstylark: excellent
[01:12] <Telendrith> Well, guess we'll find out of it will run ubuntu tomorrow \o/
[01:13] <wilee-nilee> Telendrith, You aware of the uefi stuff, I assume this has W8?
[01:15] <horrorxstory> im trying to install windows games on my ubuntu and i am unable to

[01:16] <horrorxstory> works
[01:16] <wilee-nilee> !details | horrorxstory
[01:16] <horrorxstory> i think it has to do with direct runtime
[01:16] <daftykins> what game, what happens, what what what? :)
[01:17] <horrorxstory> ok like wow for instance it completely installs and then when i go to run it, it tells me there is a problem with direct runtime
[01:18] <daftykins> horrorxstory: what does the wine website say to do?

[01:40] <Noskcaj> During a re-install
[01:40] <OerHeks> install now does perform some updates, might be caused by pre-downloading the updates.
[01:40] <RealDrProxy> @Noskcaj
[01:40] <RealDrProxy> I believe you need to backup the .gpg folder in your home folder if I am not mistaken.
[01:41] <cff9> How much RAM would you give to Virtual Machine? I need XP to run on Ubuntu -
[01:41] <Noskcaj> ok
[01:41] <RealDrProxy> or .pgp, whatever it is
[01:41] <Yaesu> OerHeks, big thanks (Hartelijk Bedankt)

[01:58] <cff9> bye all - have nice weekend
[01:58] <babinlonston> IdleOne: which three lines
[01:58] <wilee-nilee> babinlonston, The ones I just posted.
[01:58] <IdleOne> babinlonston: the ones with lonston@desktop
[01:59] <IdleOne> remove them completely
[01:59] <babinlonston> oh
[01:59] <IdleOne> make sure you save the changes and then run sudo apt-get update
[02:00] <babinlonston> wilee-nilee:  no its While i copied it came ., but not its in Source list
[02:01] <thurstylark> I'm setting up a vps, and my provider only will support clean installs of ubuntu server up to 11.04. What method do you recommend to get me to 12.04?
[02:02] <babinlonston> wilee-nilee: this is Source list just now  i copied and pasted http://paste.ubuntu.com/5994823/
[02:02] <wilee-nilee> babinlonston, If your sources list is clean, I would change mirrors, and medibuntu is eol
[02:02] <Ben64> thurstylark: get a new vps provider
[02:02] <babinlonston> wilee-nilee: how can i change it guide me
[02:03] <IdleOne> babinlonston: now you have root@desktop:/home/lonston# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:03] <IdleOne> root@desktop:/home/lonston# cat /etc/apt/sources.list in there
[02:04] <babinlonston> IdleOne:  its just coming while im copy that but its not in source list sir
[02:04] <wilee-nilee> babinlonston, Medibuntu is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d use ppa-purge to remove it, changing the server is in softwrae sources gotten to easiest from the software center edit.
[02:04] <IdleOne> babinlonston: I don't see how that is possible.
[02:05] <BunkMonkey_> Hey all
[02:06] <wilee-nilee> babinlonston, Follow IdleOne they are correct.
[02:06] <babinlonston> IdleOne: :( but its not showing while im opening using vim
[02:07] <IdleOne> babinlonston: Then I don't understand how those 2 lines got pasted there in the middle of the file

[02:17] <maxiPad3gs> nevermind about USB 3.0 on the thinkpad. it seems tht this issue will not be fixed any time soon according to Ubuntu forums sorry..
[02:19] <babinlonston> IdleOne:  ok let me try it and come , but while im changing it it cant change asking to click revert , if i click it coming again to Present server what now having , how can i change it in command line
[02:20] <IdleOne> babinlonston: when it asks to revert, don't revert

[02:35] <Guest14600> maxiPad3gs: 10.04
[02:35] <maxiPad3gs> Guest14600: unless you can modify your dev rules most likely like me you will have to manually mount that Module every time oyu rebot or log off
[02:36] <Guest14600> maxiPad3gs: How do I mount it??
[02:36] <acerone> Hi there Ubuntu friends, i have a little prob on my Acer Aspire One AOA110 (ZG5).

[02:36] <cfhowlett> acerone, both optimized for low spec and older machine.
[02:37] <maxiPad3gs> Guest14600: you have to learn the terminal and Linux commands for maual mount of module..
[02:37] <acerone> they will fit?
[02:37] <scarecrow_> helloo?
[02:37] <cfhowlett> acerone  what's your storage?
[02:37] <Guest14600> maxiPad3gs: I know enough

[02:42] <wilee-nilee> xmetal, Yet you run a ubuntu derivative, hmmmmm
[02:42] <xmetal> i wonder if i need graphics drivers for my new install of a new distro  ... the new version seems slow (lagging, video-wise) sometimes
[02:42] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[02:42] <usr13> maxiPad3gs: If you look at the output of   tail -f /var/log/syslog   maybe it will give you/us a clue.
[02:42] <usr13> maxiPad3gs: As you plug it in.
[02:42] <scarecrow__> can anyone help with a phpmyadmin install problem?
[02:43]  * xmetal denies that and gets pack of Mints
[02:43] <Guest14600> scarecrow__: Try #php
[02:43]  * xmetal whistles innocently
[02:43] <magg> hello
[02:43] <maxiPad3gs> usr13: "the output of"=meaning after i run that as a command in terminal?
[02:43] <usr13> maxiPad3gs: yes
[02:43] <maxiPad3gs> usr13: ok wait one please i am runinig those other task first please
[02:44] <wilee-nilee> heh
[02:44] <usr13> maxiPad3gs: That's ok, we have plenty of time. (We are open 24/7)
[02:44] <Guest14600> usr13: lol
[02:44] <magg> any mac users here? I'm wondering if you guys recommend to install rEFInd. When I installed ubuntu I installed rEFIt on OSX.
[02:48] <maxiPad3gs> http://pastebin.com/FxG4tLe7 output of tail -f /var/etc...
[02:49] <maxiPad3gs> it looks like it should be working no..? let me reboot and come right bak and try loading it again yes?
[02:50] <maxiPad3gs> be right back reboot time
[02:52] <Xbuntu_master> Boa noite
[02:52] <Xbuntu_master> pessoal
[02:52] <usr13> someone tell maxiPad3gs that it appears that it may be mounting his device.  "Mounted /dev/mmcblk0p1 at /media/mopad/8765-4321"  (from:  http://pastebin.com/FxG4tLe7 )
[02:53] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[02:53] <usr13> maxiPad3gs:  So look at /media/mopad/8765-4321 and see
[02:55] <lotuspsychje> any alternative window managers if lubuntu doesnt run smooth on an older laptop?
[02:55] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, xfce4
[02:55] <usr13> lotuspsychje: There is xubuntu
[02:55] <maxiPad3gs> Issue resolved: thinkpad x220 13.04 boring ringtail sd card reader module load on boot/log in sucessful with a transfer rate of 9.2 MB/sec...
[02:55] <usr13> lotuspsychje: you can install xubuntu-desktop
[02:56] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: xubuntu has same performance on this laptop, not realy smoother
[02:56] <usr13> maxiPad3gs: Okeydokey.  Glad you let us know.
[02:57] <xmetal> i think xfce and lxde are two of the lightest (not counting any commandline only  DE's that may be out there)
[02:58] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, A whole bunch of lighter desktops, and distros that come with them.
[02:58] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: how about enlightment?
[02:59] <xmetal> i will be honest .. have not tried that
[02:59] <xmetal> that sounds familiar though
[02:59] <maxiPad3gs> If you have a Linux background Lubuntu and Xubuntu Kubuntu are all nice. but nautilus and Unity are key for all of my buddys ... we need those features=ex mac book users all of us..
[02:59] <lotuspsychje> !info enlightment
[02:59] <lotuspsychje> !info e3
[02:59] <lotuspsychje> hmm
[03:00] <lotuspsychje> forgot packagename
[03:00] <IdleOne> e17 ?
[03:00] <lotuspsychje> ah yes
[03:00] <lotuspsychje> !info e17
[03:00] <lotuspsychje> IdleOne: tnx!
[03:00] <IdleOne> sure thing
[03:00] <lotuspsychje> would e17 be lighter then lxde?
[03:01] <xvicarious> Hey, I've had a little trouble in getting grub set up properly.  When I installed it said grub had failed.  So I booted from grub recovery and tried running boot-repair.  I think the problem is I have an EFI parition on my SSD, and by boot is on one of my two HHDs.  I have grub-efi installed, but I can't seem to get it to work.  It complains about unknown filesystem when it boots and goes to recovery.
[03:01] <xmetal> hmm i may give that a try
[03:01] <xvicarious> Anyone have any idea?
[03:01] <xmetal> :)
[03:01] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: oldskool :p you will like it
[03:01] <usr13> lotuspsychje: How old is this PC?  (What processor and how much RAM?)
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, Try fluxbox or blackbox
[03:02] <xmetal> only DE i dont care for is Unity honestly ... I like alot of the DE's i have tried "in thier own way"
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> much ,ore configuring though
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> more*
[03:02] <lotuspsychje> usr13: its a compac with 512 ram with older grafix card, both lubuntu and xubuntu dont run very smooth
[03:03] <Guest89278> hello everyone hows it going? I am running Ubuntu 13.04 on a Dell N4010 laptop. I have an F key that controls screen brightness and it does not work, and when I go into the brightness settings I can move the bar all I want and nothing changes. When I switch to Windows it works just fine. Is there a way to fix this?
[03:03] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: ok tnx ill try fluxbox from lubuntu maybe
[03:03] <xmetal> sounds like the pc i had that just died only when i got it i upgraded the ram from 512 to 768
[03:03] <xmetal> old compaq
[03:03] <lotuspsychje> !uefi | xvicarious
[03:03] <maxiPad3gs> In three years could half of the current mac book users be running Ubuntu 15.04 on their Thinkpad's or Asus's Dell's etc....?
[03:03] <dr_willis> Guest89278:  check the exact make laptop on askubuntu.com and the forums. there may be a known worrk around or fix to get it going
[03:04] <maxiPad3gs> 2 years
[03:04] <maxiPad3gs> sorry Apple just kidding .. later geeks thanks for the help...
[03:04] <xvicarious> I made sure I booted the CD in UEFI mode, and yet it still fails.
[03:05] <Perez> some backtrack user here?
[03:05] <xmetal> brb
[03:05] <dr_willis> Perez:  backtrack has its own support channels and web site
[03:05] <xangua> !backtrack | Perez
[03:05] <xmetal> have to reboot into a distro (shhs @ willie) and get some package info
[03:05] <Perez> hmm.
[03:05] <lotuspsychje> xvicarious: when did it goe wrong for you?
[03:05] <Perez> Thanks. :D
[03:05] <Perez> I Use Ubuntu too. :D
[03:06] <xmetal> hmm that reminds me .. .i wonder if there is (no so much a DE, but a "suite of packages" to install backtrack packages on other ubuntu-based distros
[03:06] <xmetal> :)
[03:06] <dr_willis> xmetal:  i think they also have their own repos and kenrel versions
[03:06] <xvicarious> It went wrong while installing GRUB, it just told me that it failed to install to /target/.  So I tried to reboot (grub recovery mind you) and ran boot-repair but it failed.  Then I tried manually installing GRUB and still nothing.
[03:07] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: i asked the same question last time, manual packages install was best option as answer
[03:07] <xmetal> true true @ manual iunstall
[03:07] <xmetal> -u
[03:07] <xmetal> anyway .. bbl
[03:07] <lotuspsychje> xvicarious: you got dualboot on that ssd? (what was previous Os)?
[03:08] <xvicarious> lotuspsychje:  I have Windows 7 on my SSD (with the EFI partition on the SSD) and Ubuntu is on one of my other hard drives.
[03:09] <lotuspsychje> xvicarious: did you try an update-grub yet?
[03:09] <xvicarious> lotuspsychje: no I haven't but I ran a dist-upgrade and it did one.  I can try one irght now.
[03:10] <lotuspsychje> xvicarious: so ubuntu doesnt run from your ssd?
[03:10] <xvicarious> lotuspsychje: no it doesn't.
[03:10] <cartusia> I keep having some serious issues with my mouse cursor, I have already attempted to read askubuntu.com but nothing there is helpful in so far as this particular problem. Initially I thought that it might have been a Theming mouse cursor problem, and that was knocked off when I switched to different desktops. So right now I am not entirely sure where to take it from :( . Could it be because of some package that I installed? Or maybe so
[03:10] <cartusia> me settings I accidentally tweaked?
[03:11] <lotuspsychje> xvicarious: it might be usefull to pastebin your grub in chat here
[03:11] <dr_willis> cartusia:  you may want to state what the actual problem is. :)    and what its doing warong.
[03:11] <dr_willis> wrong
[03:11] <xvicarious> my grub.cfg lotuspsychje?
[03:11] <cartusia> mouse cursor I already said that
[03:11] <lotuspsychje> !grub2 | xvicarious
[03:11] <dr_willis> cartusia:  and what is wrong with it?
[03:11] <cartusia> it doesnt show
[03:11] <dr_willis> you mean its invisuble?
[03:11] <cartusia> only in a few spots does it show
[03:12] <cartusia> but with all kde programs it does not show
[03:12] <dr_willis> are you goin gto tell us which spots.. or do we have to keep guessing and playing 20 questions
[03:12] <cartusia> some Gnome GUI programs show a little
[03:12] <cartusia> well its hard to describe because it is sometimes very specific.
[03:13] <dr_willis> so the mouse cursor is invisiable over ALL kde apps? and shows sometimes for gnome apps..  and only then in specific locations of such apps?
[03:13] <cartusia> the mouse cursor on some other desktops works perfectly fine with the desktop like lxde I think (can't recall)
[03:13] <xvicarious> lotuspsychje: I don't quite understand what you're asking by pastebin'ing GRUB still...  the !grub2 didn't say much..
[03:13] <cartusia> yes its super weird :(
[03:13] <dr_willis> cartusia:  you have tried making a new user and seen if it works properly for them?
[03:14] <cartusia> so right now I am stuck using unity with pressing ctrl (and when I move the mouse it shows where the mouse cursor is at)
[03:14] <cartusia> hmmm haven't thought of that let me see about that.
[03:14] <dr_willis> differnt apps can use difernt mouse themes from what ive seen int he past. if the theme of files are gone/moved then it shows nothing.
[03:15] <cartusia> ohh I see
[03:15] <dr_willis> i elive you can use the xset command to set a specific mouse cursor also. (it might not have been  xset, but xsetroot, been years since ive ude that)
[03:16] <xvicarious> lotuspsychje: I'm just assuming this is what you want: http://pastebin.com/f6snbwEw
[03:17] <cartusia> alright I am reading the man page for xset
[03:19] <dr_willis> might have been xsetroot
[03:19] <dr_willis> X cursors where origianly taken from 'font' files. ;) i recall.. but with the new desktops they get them in som eother way. but the old methoid to set them i think stillworks.
[03:22] <mini> hello everyone
[03:23] <dr_feelgud> hi mini
[03:23] <Perez> hello mini
[03:23] <dr_willis> some neat info on X cursor themes (not ubuntu specific however but i bet a lot of it still applies) -->  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cursor_Themes#Using_X_resources
[03:23] <mini> i am trying to format a used harddrive which i placed in an enclosure but the computer does not see it
[03:24] <dr_willis> mini:  what is not seeing it specifically?
[03:24] <dr_willis> fdisk, gparted, the bios?
[03:25] <mini> i know the boot up has been corrupt, i want to use it as an external drive
[03:25] <dr_feelgud> mini, maybe the hard drive is disbaled in bios
[03:25] <dr_willis> mini:  so does fdisk -l, gparted, or  'sudo blkid' show the drive?
[03:26] <dr_willis> 'sudo fdisk -l'
[03:26] <mini> as an external drive the computer does not see it
[03:26] <mini> so if i place in in a computer as the main drive can it still be fixed?
[03:27] <dr_willis> mini:  so does any of the following commands  'sudo fdisk -l' , gparted, or  'sudo blkid' show the drive?    <-----
[03:27] <dr_willis> 'comptuer does not see it' can be interperted several differnt ways
[03:27] <mini> 1 sec
[03:27] <mini> I am actually new to ubuntu an learning those commands
[03:27] <mini> this is what appears >>

[03:30] <Rajzi> Hello!?
[03:31] <cfhowlett> Rajzi, greetings
[03:32] <Rajzi> :-)
[03:33] <Amau_Plus_Plus> Hi?
[03:33] <dr_feelgud> mini, if the drive is not detected by bios can you check if hardrive isnot spinning/poweringup?
[03:33] <mini> the external drive is connected via usb, it is a windows hard drive but i want to make it an external drive to save files
[03:33] <dr_willis> mini:  the command was 'sudo fdisk -l'  not 'fdisk'
[03:33] <dr_willis> mini:   untill one of the disk partioning tools shows the drive.. you are not going to be doing squat with it...
[03:34] <waterlite> hi all
[03:34] <steamboat> Anyone want to help me install ubuntu without erasing windows 8? Every time I start the installation ubuntu can't detect any installed operating systems.
[03:34] <dr_willis> if it w as a windows drive then it show up with the filesystem type  of 'ntfs'
[03:34] <cfhowlett> !uefi|steamboat,
[03:34] <Amau_Plus_Plus> Hi waterlite how are you?
[03:35] <steamboat> Even though gparted sees all the drives
[03:35] <Amau_Plus_Plus> alguien que hable espaol?
[03:35] <dr_willis> steamboat:  #1 thing to do would be sure you have made (or own) a restore dvd set - to restore your windows system. in case somthing screws it up.
[03:35] <cfhowlett> !es|Amau_Plus_Plus,
[03:36] <Rajzi> Steamboat try to select the partition manually
[03:36] <ohsnap> sup noobuntu
[03:36] <wilee-nilee> Amau_Plus_Plus, This is an english channel you might want #ubuntu-es
[03:36] <ohsnap> i have a quick question
[03:36] <ohsnap> would anyone like to rub duck sauce on my nipples?
[03:36] <Amau_Plus_Plus> thank's
[03:37] <Amau_Plus_Plus> :-)
[03:37] <dr_willis> ohsnap:  wrong channel.. you want #foreveralone
[03:37] <cfhowlett> !ops|ohsnap,
[03:37] <wilee-nilee> lol
[03:37] <steamboat> I've created a restore disc so I can't screw up too badly, and I can select the partition manually
[03:38] <dr_willis> steamboat:  could be you need to resize, or delete a partion so you have some unallocated space for the installer to detect
[03:39] <dr_willis> ive seen windows machines come wtth 4 primary partions. thats the limit for the mbr type disk layout. so you cant make any more partions
[03:39] <Rajzi> select the partiton  make it root
[03:40] <cfhowlett> dr_willis, you can make unlimited(?) logical partitions but only 4 primary primary partitions
[03:40] <steamboat> If I resize the windows partition from the ubuntu installer will it screw with the data (assuming I leave enough space)?
[03:41] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, This is windows 8 right, use its disk manager to resize.
[03:41] <steamboat> wilee-nilee, resize from inside windows?
[03:42] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, yes it works nicely, and reboot it to so it runs its auto chkdsk.
[03:42] <steamboat> ok
[03:42] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, you then have an unallocated space for ubuntu.
[03:43] <steamboat> ok, reboooting the windows computer
[03:43] <hylian> I want to set up dual boot with win 7 32 bit / Ubuntu 12.04. will grub cause problems with win 7's boot system?
[03:43] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, I would image/clone it as well, just to be safe no matter what you install.
[03:43] <cfhowlett> hylian, shouldn 't.  I've got 12.04 and win7 ... no issues
[03:43] <wilee-nilee> hylian, Should not grub will boot windows.
[03:44] <hylian> ok thanks cfhowlett and wilee-nilee.
[03:44] <steamboat> I've made a recovery disc, but unfortunately I don't have a usb large enough to clone the OEM partition
[03:44] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, I would consider what you would do if you brick the windows.
[03:46] <steamboat> wilee-nilee, ubuntu is my primary os, but I'd like to be able to play games on new system. Not having ubuntu much worse than not having windows :)
[03:47] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, Bad reasoning but do what you must.

[03:50] <cfhowlett> whoever, no worries.  what's your ubuntu issue?
[03:51] <whoever> cfhowlett: none , i am here to help just as you are
[03:51] <whoever> just thaugh i'd take some time and greet the channel
[03:51] <vic2r> Hi gudday everyone. jsty want to ask solution because i got problem with pidgin i successfully installed it using apt-get install pidgin but it auto close when i open it. any idea what's wrong with it. hope to find solution from u guys. :-)
[03:52] <whoever>  vic2r do you have rights to it? try it in cli
[03:53] <vic2r> yup i try to uninstall it already and reinstall but still the same problem
[03:53] <whoever> vic2r: is there an error
[03:54] <whoever> vlt: if not then there isn't much we can do for you
[03:54] <vic2r> no error but it auto close
[03:55] <Ben64> yeah we got that, try running it from a terminal
[03:56] <whoever> vic2r: the only thing i can think of is tha you are missing some depencancy, although doesn't seem lickly-
[03:56] <Ben64> also would help to know the ubuntu version
[03:56] <wilee-nilee> vic2r, A uninstall does not remove the config, so you have the same thing basically.
[03:57] <vic2r> i did the clean uninstall using apt-get --purge remove
[03:57] <wilee-nilee> ah, the rest if the story. ;)
[03:57] <dr_willis> vic2r:  that will NOT clean out messed up configs in the users home.
[03:57] <vic2r> oh ic.
[03:57] <wilee-nilee> true
[03:57] <vic2r> i thought it will
[03:57] <dr_willis> vic2r:  test with a newly made. and/or clean out the pogin config files in the users home. run pigin form a terminal. look for errors
[03:58] <dr_willis> vic2r:  it would be a disaster if apt-get removed configs from the users home
[03:58] <dr_willis> you remove/reinstall firefox...  and poof all your old ff settings are gone for all users on the system.. that would not be good.
[03:59] <wilee-nilee> I keep mine numbered for just such an occasion
[03:59] <dr_willis> i keep mine backed up to my U1 account. ;)
[03:59] <vic2r> let me try to clean config. il update u what will happen
[04:03] <rhobot> nigger
[04:03] <cfhowlett> !ops|rhobot,
[04:07] <ffio> when runining sudo apt-get install, i am getting error -> Errors were encountered while processing: E: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)  where can i check what was the exact error and what process caused it ?
[04:10] <kasad> I'm trying to install ubuntu 8.04 from flashdrive, setup starts, but then it says that it can't mount cdrom
[04:11] <kasad> I've found somewhere that there is workaround that you can mount flash drive partition as /cdrom and setup would continue
[04:11] <kasad> I'm just not sure how to figure out which is correct partition to mount as /cdrom
[04:11] <reisio> kasad: why such an old version?
[04:12] <kasad> not my choice, but has to be replica of existing server
[04:12] <kasad> and I don't have working cdrom so it has to be from thumbdrive
[04:14] <tgm4883> kasad, just for reference, 8.04 is completely unsupported now
[04:14] <tgm4883> as in it gets no more security updates (or any updates)
[04:15] <kasad> tgm4883: I know
[04:15] <reisio> kasad: replica?
[04:15] <kasad> I just need a way out of this for now
[04:15] <reisio> what's the problem?
[04:15] <kasad> it has to be exact same system
[04:16] <reisio> why not just copy the existing system, then?
[04:16] <kasad> I can't it's remote and it's not possible atm
[04:17] <kasad> but I have to get 8.04 LTS working together with specific plesk version (not my choice it's a request)
[04:17] <tgm4883> kasad, you could try just doing a symlink, but I think that your reasons for 8.04 may not be fully understood
[04:17] <tgm4883> wait, plesk?
[04:18] <tgm4883> as in, the web server control panel?
[04:18] <kasad> tgm4883: yes unfortunately, I don't get any say in the matter
[04:18] <reisio> kasad: why isn't it possible?
[04:18] <reisio> and if it's going to be possible later why not just wait
[04:18] <tgm4883> kasad, who are you doing this for, and tell them they are an idiot
[04:19] <kasad> reisio: because I do not have access to the machine atm
[04:19] <tgm4883> kasad, I would, under no circumstances, put an unsupported OS of any type on a public web server
[04:19] <kasad> tgm4883: symlink to what
[04:19] <reisio> kasad: how do you hope to have an exact replica without access
[04:19] <tgm4883> kasad, no, I'm not playing any part in you putting an unsupported web server on the internet
[04:20] <kasad> when I try to mount find cdrom I get " failed to retrieve the preconfiguration file, and it looks for file://cdrom/preseed/ubuntu-server.seed which is nowhere to be found on mounted drives
[04:20] <kasad> reisio: I have the list
[04:21] <reisio> kasad: list?
[04:21] <droop> i downloaded an rpm file for my printer drivers. the manager opened the file and now i have a folder. how can i install?
[04:21] <kasad> reisio: of os and services I need to set up
[04:22] <kasad> tgm4883: it isn't even going to be online afaik
[04:22] <rypervenche> kasad: What version of Plesk is this?
[04:23] <tgm4883> kasad, yea, I don't see why you need plesk for an offline web server....
[04:23] <wilee-nilee> droop, Ubuntu does not use rpm's are you sure you even need this?
[04:23] <kasad> lemme check
[04:23] <kasad> plesk 9.5.4
[04:24] <kasad> tgm4883: I do not need it, I just need to make sure it's working as requested
[04:24] <rypervenche> kasad: That's still quite old. They're on 11.0.9, even higher than that.
[04:24] <kasad> it's to do with some intranet app that I know nothing about not I care to
[04:25] <tgm4883> kasad, the person that hired you knows this is an unsupported server?
[04:25] <kasad> yes
[04:25] <droop> wilee-nilee: ya. i looked up the website and it has the linux drivers i need. i tried installing by just using ubuntu but it wont work. maybe im doing it wrong. i figured ill give it a try. It gives deb, rpm, or tar.gz
[04:26] <kasad> they need to "salvage" something old and scary (it's scary for me as long as it involves plesk and ages old ubuntu)
[04:26] <wilee-nilee> droop, Have you seen if they are in the ubuntu repos by running the printer app?
[04:26] <kasad> I didn't had opportunity to take a look at application
[04:26] <tgm4883> kasad, sorry, I just want to make sure I understand this correctly. The person that hired you for this job (it's a contract i'm assuming), knows that the OS they want is unsupported, and hired someone that doesn't know what a symlink is to do this?
[04:26] <wilee-nilee> droop, A deb would be what you use.
[04:27] <tgm4883> this seems like a very very bad thing
[04:27] <tgm4883> oh, and also the cdrom on that computer is broke
[04:27] <rypervenche> win
[04:27] <kasad> tgm4883: yeap
[04:27] <droop> wilee-nilee:deb? ok. ill try both. the repos and then deb. thank you.
[04:27] <tgm4883> which I'm assuming this server is some repurposed desktop system sitting under someones desk
[04:28] <tgm4883> kasad, you don't happen to live in Oregon do you?
[04:28] <kasad> tgm4883: I know what a symlink is, but I don't have idea where/which is usb partition that I need to mount or symlink because I can't find anything related
[04:28] <wilee-nilee> tgm4883, goes full Carnac. ;)
[04:28] <kasad> nope, other side of the planet more or less
[04:28] <tgm4883> kasad, ok good
[04:28] <rypervenche> Montenegro
[04:29] <prappl93> How can I tell which /dev device my DVD drive is?
[04:30] <rypervenche> prappl93: ls -l /dev/cdrom
[04:30] <TLoFP> How do you redirect a video stream to file while still displaying it?
[04:31] <TLoFP> I have been having problems with this for weeks now, google has not helped me (tee doesn't seem to do the trick)
[04:31] <kasad> anyhow, any advice on how to figure out where are the files are need,  because I sure can't find them
[04:32] <prappl93> rypervenche: It's linking to sr0, and when I try using that, it says "/dev/cdrom: read-only file system"
[04:32] <rypervenche> prappl93: Yeah, what are you trying to do with it?
[04:32] <prappl93> rypervenche: Trying to use dd to write an image to a disc
[04:33] <rypervenche> prappl93: It sounds like the disk isn't blank.
[04:33] <prappl93> rypervenche: It is a blank DVD, just took it out of the package, doesn't have anything written to it yet.
[04:34] <ubulost> Does the phrase "no you have Asian Flu" mean anything to anyone.  It showed up in terminal in newly installed Mint
[04:34] <babinlonston1> How to create a ISO file from Ubuntu Disc ? Now i have inserted Ubuntu Disc in my Drive , Now i want to create a ISO file of that , How can i do
[04:34] <rypervenche> prappl93: What's the command that you're running?
[04:34] <prappl93> dd if=filetowrite of=/dev/sr0 or of=/dev/cdrom
[04:35] <grimeton> hi
[04:35] <prappl93> Prefaced by sudo, of course.
[04:35] <grimeton> somebody in here tried to install ubuntu 13.04 server inside virtual box?
[04:35] <babinlonston1> oh thanks
[04:35] <Ben64> prappl93: fairly sure that will never work
[04:35] <prappl93> babinlonston1: My response was to someone else.
[04:36] <babinlonston1> prappl93: :( oh not for me
[04:36] <gr33n7007h> prappl93, put your DVD in and run the command mount
[04:36] <Ben64> babinlonston1: switch the "if" and "of" of that command and it should work for what you want to do
[04:36] <gr33n7007h> to see where it mounts
[04:37] <babinlonston1> Ben64: ok
[04:38] <babinlonston1> Ben64: dd of=/media/Ubuntu-Server\ 12.04\ LTS\ amd64/ if=/dev/tmp/ubuntusiso Show Error
[04:38] <droop> wilee-nilee: ubuntu had the drivers. now i try to find the network printer and it doesnt find it
[04:39] <wilee-nilee> droop, Not sure there myself.
[04:39] <cartusia> I use freebsd, does anyone know the equivalent in Linux for Jails?
[04:39] <cartusia> just wondering
[04:39] <cartusia> if there is such a thing
[04:39] <cartusia> or if FBSD took it from Linux who knows >.<
[04:40] <Ben64> babinlonston1: if = input, of = output
[04:40] <Ben64> babinlonston1: and you're going to want the device, not the mountpoint
[04:42] <wilee-nilee> babinlonston1, By the way you can do the same with brasero.
[04:42] <babinlonston1> dd: opening `/dev/cdrom': Read-only file system
[04:42] <babinlonston1> wilee-nilee:  u here
[04:43] <babinlonston1> oh ok but i want to know in command line cos im going it in other ubuntu server
[04:43] <grimeton> extracting a linux image feels like installing a service pack
[04:43] <Ben64> babinlonston1: again, of = the output, and if = the input
[04:43] <ubulost> grimeton: I've got 12.04 server in virtual box
[04:43] <wilee-nilee> I be
[04:43] <dr_willis> i dont think you can use dd to ;write; to a  optical drive.
[04:44] <dr_willis> at least ive never seen that done befor
[04:44] <Ben64> dr_willis: there are sort of ways, but not how anyone here would like it
[04:44] <dr_willis> !info wodim
[04:44] <wilee-nilee> they want an iso
[04:44] <babinlonston1> Ben64: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/ubuntu this ok i think im i right cos its Creating i think
[04:44] <babinlonston1> Ben64: :)
[04:44] <dr_willis> you can use dd to MAKE a iso image from a cdrom drive.. ;) thats easy
[04:45] <dr_willis> babinlonston1:  in the future use a bs=4M  option.. to make it work much faster
[04:45] <babinlonston1> dr_willis:  oh ok fine let me try it too after first one getting finish
[04:46] <dr_willis> that first one may take a VERY long time..
[04:46] <dr_willis> how big is the disk you are imageing?
[04:46] <babinlonston1> -rw-rw-r--  1 sysadmin sysadmin 613M Aug 17 10:16 ubuntu Done

[04:50] <dr_feelgud> how to read txt files on terminal?
[04:51] <grimeton> dr_feelgud: more, less, vi, vim, ....
[04:51] <cartusia> btw I found the answer to my question. In case anyone else is wondering
[04:51] <cartusia> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6392944/whats-the-difference-between-a-linux-chroot-jail-and-a-freebsd-jail
[04:51] <reisio> cartusia: what was your question?
[04:51] <grimeton> cartusia: freebsd doesn't have jails ...
[04:51] <dr_feelgud> grimeton, thanks
[04:51] <grimeton> cartusia: argh, my fault ...
[04:53] <stimoceiver> so
[04:53] <reisio> that "answer" appears to confuse a chroot with a chroot jail
[04:53] <reisio> one of the words is an adjective
[04:53] <dr_feelgud> how do i convert log file into html?

[04:54] <dr_feelgud> i want to read logs on browser
[04:54] <reisio> most web servers will server as text/plain anything with a .txt extension
[04:54] <reisio> will serve*
[04:55] <grimeton> dr_feelgud: (echo '<html><body><pre>';cat /var/log/syslog;echo '</pre></body></html>') > log.html
[04:56] <dr_willis> dr_feelgud:  a browser can display text files i recall doing it in the past
[04:56] <dr_feelgud> grimeton, awesome thanks
[04:56] <reisio> total waste of time
[04:56] <dr_willis> may as well use a log colorizer script :)
[04:57] <reisio> may as well use ssh :p
[04:57] <dr_feelgud> dr_willis, thanks for responding
[04:57] <dr_willis> sssshhhhh., no one should mention ssh.. its a secret
[04:57] <reisio> :p
[04:57] <dr_willis> !find colortail
[04:57] <dr_willis> !info colortail
[04:58] <dr_willis> old skool eye candy.. have a transparent xterminal on the 'root' of the x server display.. displaying  colorized log output ;)
[04:58] <stimoceiver> dumb question: how can i tell what release and version # of ubuntu i am running from the command line?
[04:58] <grimeton> there is xroottail
[04:59] <dr_willis> !version

[05:01] <stimoceiver> today I boot up my ubuntu machine and the software update shows a blank update
[05:01] <stimoceiver> 1.5 MB spread over 11 files but no info shows up
[05:01] <grimeton> stimoceiver: shit happens
[05:01] <stimoceiver> haha!
[05:02] <stimoceiver> how true that statement is
[05:02] <dr_feelgud> grimeton, ok i'll try that
[05:02] <stimoceiver> so i was just wondering if there were any major releases out or something
[05:02] <dr_feelgud> grimeton, thanks
[05:02] <stimoceiver> like 13.10 or w/e
[05:03] <stimoceiver> the problem with the "shit happens" is it isnt as reassuring
[05:03] <stimoceiver> is there a way to clear whatever caches of that it has and get it to re-download?
[05:03] <wilee-nilee> !laqnguage | stimoceiver, grimeton

[05:06] <grimeton> stimoceiver: did you modify sources.list?
[05:06] <stimoceiver> probably a while back to add some launchpad sources but other than that, no

[05:28] <Pinkamen1_D> I just did a fsck on a hard drive which I suspected errors on. It got through the first two phases or so, and now its going crazy with numbers scrolling across the screen.
[05:28] <Pinkamen1_D> what do?
[05:28] <grimeton> Pinkamen1_D: run fsck again with "-y"
[05:29] <Pinkamen1_D> its still going
[05:29] <grimeton> Pinkamen1_D: i'd say it's time to start praying

[05:38] <mobile> wilee-nilee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5995158/  My current internet connection is very poor, so I was disconnected. This is the output of lsusb.
[05:38] <xmetal> what is the actual question?
[05:38] <Putz3000> grimeton: no kidding! a loaded IRC support channel with no interaction is one of my big pet peeves.
[05:38] <Putz3000> xmetal: my question?
[05:39] <grimeton> Putz3000: they sometimes recommend to open a voice chat
[05:39] <grimeton> Putz3000: but i never used that
[05:39] <grimeton> oh how i hate udev sometimes
[05:39] <Putz3000> grimeton: me neither. these days I rarely use IRC. barely know how to change nick & join a room...lol
[05:40] <grimeton> Putz3000: don't think it's an irc thing
[05:40] <grimeton> Putz3000: read their welcome note that you get when you join the channel
[05:41] <Putz3000> grimeton: ya, read the topic info. saw the numbers but it wasn't presented as a required task..lol
[05:42] <Putz3000> grimeton: or so I thought.
[05:42] <grimeton> i guess the highly recommended task there is wait
[05:43]  * wilee-nilee people who cannot use the actual topic is one of my pet peeves, this is not a chat channel.
[05:44] <mobile> My ubuntu 13.04 cannot detect my huawie modem (tata photon+). I can't find the enable mobile broadband opion. This is my lsusb output,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5995158/ . If it is useful.
[05:44] <mr_lou> Can someone help me get Java working in my browsers. I installed OpenJDK, and found this page: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/enable_browser_ubuntu.xml
[05:44] <mr_lou> But there's no libnpjp2.so in my jre lib folder.
[05:45] <mr_lou> So I'm stuck
[05:45] <MrHotsauce> you installed JDK you need JRE
[05:45] <mr_lou> Surely JRE is part of the JDK?
[05:45] <grimeton> mr_lou: openjdk isn't exactly the oracle thing
[05:45] <wilee-nilee> mobile, Ubuntu sees the modem and it is a huawie EC1260 include that info it's rather important, to get help.
[05:45] <mr_lou> Ok then.
[05:45] <mr_lou> Out with OpenJDK and in with Oracle
[05:46] <Putz3000> mr_lou: I just installed Java via instructions from this URL http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-oracle-java-7-in-ubuntu-12-04.html  not sure if that is what you are looking for or not.
[05:46] <mobile> wilee-nilee: Thanks for replying. How can I enable mobile broadband?
[05:47] <grimeton> mr_lou: you won't get that file with any package on ubuntu
[05:47] <mr_lou> Putz3000, Thanks. Will take a look.
[05:47] <wilee-nilee> mobile, I have no idea, but you can use that info to find links such as this. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=+EC1260
[05:48] <wilee-nilee> mobile, My advice would be to get a plug and play usb modem, they are rather cheap.
[05:48] <stimoceiver> those huawei modems are pretty cool, is that one of the 4G LTE ones?
[05:49] <stimoceiver> (im too lazy to type "huawie EC1260" in my browser)
[05:49] <wilee-nilee> cool and working are not the same
[05:49] <qwertyomen> They just don't work too good indoors...
[05:49] <grimeton> and they always have a backdoor if you loose your password
[05:50] <mr_lou> Installing Oracle's JDK (sun-java6-jdk) still doesn't give me a /usr/local/java folder as referred to on that page.
[05:50] <grimeton> mr_lou: i told you, you won't be able to get that file with any package on ubuntu
[05:50] <mr_lou> grimeton, Then why is it referred to on most help pages I've found?
[05:50] <dr_willis> sun  java? isent that a bit old?
[05:51] <grimeton> mr_lou: # apt-file search libnpjp2.so | wc -l
[05:51] <dr_willis> out of date docs perhaps
[05:51] <grimeton> mr_lou: 0
[05:51] <theImpaled> hi
[05:51] <grimeton> mr_lou: i guess it's when you use their java package - no idea
[05:51] <dr_willis> !java
[05:51] <qwertyomen> theImpaled: Hi!
[05:55] <theImpaled> um....
[05:57] <qwertyomen> Best phone to install ubuntu on?
[05:57] <theImpaled> hi qweryomen
[05:59] <mysteriousdarren> qwertyomen: Samsung Galaxy 4
[05:59] <mr_lou> Putz3000, Thanks a lot! I just had to do it like you suggested.
[06:00] <mr_lou> Putz3000, Now all works again.
[06:00] <qwertyomen> mysteriousdarren: Don't those come with quad cores now?
[06:01] <mysteriousdarren> qwertyomen: I think so, I can't remember.
[06:01] <Putz3000> mr_lou: awesome! glad I could help.
[06:01] <grimeton> i remember something that parts of the gfx driver isn't open sauce anymore
[06:02] <qwertyomen> mysteriousdarren: wikipedia says one variant does... woudn't a Samsung Note do better?
[06:02] <rscnt> hi
[06:02] <rscnt> this is
[06:02] <rscnt> grim76
[06:06] <qwertyomen> Oh snap! octocores now.... I've been sleeping through the phone industry lately...
[06:06] <rscnt> why?

[06:11] <sparklr> Can anyone help me with Ubuntu 13.04 suddenly froze, I rebooted, now i can't login to that user account and i cant access the files as well as the user was encrypted
[06:12] <jaimeh> sparklr: the user account was encrypted?
[06:12] <sparklr> jaimeh: yes
[06:12] <Putz3000> sparklr: Did you by chance just make a video driver change?
[06:13] <sparklr> Putz3000: no, i dint change anything. It was working normally until it froze yesterday
[06:13] <jaimeh> sparklr: what can you see when you boot up? The login screen?
[06:14] <sparklr>  jaimeh: i can login to other accounts, i just cant login to my primary account where all my data is and which is encrypted
[06:18] <Putz3000> sparklr: would this URL possibly help you at least gain access for data recovery? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/recover-your-encrypted-private-directory-using-ecryptfs-recover-private.html
[06:18] <jaimeh> sparklr: you didn't change your password when it crashed?
[06:19] <sparklr> jaimeh: there was a password on it, I removed the password. It suddenly froze while i was working.
[06:20] <sparklr> Putz3000: thanks. well i need to get that user working too apart from getting the data
[06:21] <sparklr>  jaimeh: it tries to login when i log in with and without password but it again comes back to the login screen. I dont get incorrect password error
[06:24] <anonee> hello, it seems pulseaudio is not working again... :(
[06:24] <anonee> any help would be highly appreciated...
[06:25] <waterlite> hi all
[06:25] <waterlite> Anyone from India/
[06:25] <holstein> anonee: confirm if it is or not.. i like to use pavucontrol
[06:25] <waterlite> ?
[06:25] <anonee> this time the sound indicator is greyed out, with an x mark
[06:25] <holstein> anonee: that is "muted"
[06:25] <anonee> Oh my GOD!
[06:25] <anonee> holstein!!
[06:25] <holstein> anonee: you could have muted with the keyboard by accident..
[06:26] <anonee> but in the GNOME ALSA mixer I've unmuted it lol
[06:26] <waterlite> hmm
[06:26] <holstein> anonee: try using pavcontrol..
[06:26] <anonee> I'll try Audacity with pulse now
[06:26] <anonee> holstein what is pavcontrol? should I google that?
[06:27] <holstein> !info pavucontrol
[06:27] <holstein> anonee: assuming you are using pulse... i think its a "better" tool for most use cases
[06:27] <holstein> waterlite: use the #ubuntu-offtopic channel for chat..
[06:28] <anonee> Okay :) but u know holstein I'm seriously thinking about installing another pulseaudio in order to get the equalizer, I really like to have a global equalizer and that dynamic bands quantity seems interesting...
[06:29] <holstein> anonee: "installing another pulseaudio" makes no sense to me
[06:29] <holstein> anonee: you can use an eq in a player, such as vlc
[06:29] <sparklr> can anyone help me out? I cant log in to one of my encrypted user account?
[06:29] <holstein> sparklr: details, please.... did you lose the password?
[06:29] <woo> sparklr: what are you using for your keyring?
[06:30] <sparklr> holstein: no. I use the correct password. My system froze yesterday night, since then i cant login to that user account, i can access other accounts
[06:30] <xmetal> hmm
[06:31] <sparklr> woo: keyring? i have heard about
[06:31] <sparklr> key string*
[06:32] <woo> sparklr: gnome-keyring-daemon
[06:32] <woo> sparklr: I use cryptkeeper
[06:33] <xmetal> hmm have a mental image of that cryptkeeper guy asking for linux passwords
[06:34] <woo> xmetal: I learned it when I had puppylinux disks just floating around
[06:34] <trust_> hello guys
[06:35] <woo> hi
[06:35] <sparklr> woo: gnome-keyring-daemon output http://www.privatepaste.com/d0ad671ede
[06:36] <sparklr> woo: i have not customized it. Its the default package which comes 13.04
[06:36] <sparklr> Putz3000:  jaimeh: are you guys there?
[06:37] <Putz3000> sparklr: yes I am.
[06:37] <woo> sparklr: I had it set up on 10.04
[06:37] <sparklr> Putz3000: any idea how to get that user working?
[06:38] <sparklr> woo: what does it do? i have no idea how it relates to my problem
[06:38] <trust_> i have a problem with my old laptop, i'am searching for a non pae version, i tried the ubuntu 13.04 12.10 12.04 an also tried the lubunto 12.10 all keep saying please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu, what version should i use for non pae cpu?
[06:38] <Putz3000> sparklr: no personal experience working around the encryption issue like you are having. have not yet found any other idea's yet either - sorry.
[06:39] <sparklr> Putz3000: ok thanks anyway
[06:39] <darkelfjuggalo> I am starting my own website, and I was recommended Apache MySQL and PHP install[s] to get me started, but i haven't a clue which exact packages I need? Using ubuntu 13.04
[06:39] <woo> ya that keyring output doesn't have any fs partitions to look at
[06:39] <grimeton> darkelfjuggalo: apt-cache search is a good start
[06:39] <grimeton> darkelfjuggalo: apt-cache search apache
[06:40] <sparklr> woo: but there is one user account which is encrypted
[06:40] <woo> sparklr: the files are split right?
[06:40] <Putz3000> trust_: I could be wrong, but thought Ubuntu dropped PAE support from newer distro versions. Seems like you could install like 11.10 possibly and upgrade from it to 12.04 ok but not 100% sure. Also seems like you cant take it the rest of the way to 13.x but again, I could be wrong.
[06:40] <sparklr> woo: i have no idea, i just select the encrypted option while installing
[06:41] <darkelfjuggalo> did that and there is a sh** load of packages
[06:41] <woo> sparklr: live boot > apt-get install cryptkeeper > take shots at the passwd
[06:41] <holstein> !pae
[06:42] <sparklr> woo: i know the password and pass phrase
[06:42] <trust_> thank you putz300 i'll try it =)
[06:42] <holstein> its the other way AFAIK.. only pae kernels in the later releases
[06:42] <woo> ya the user directory should contain one small and one large file
[06:42] <steamboat> I've just installed ubuntu on an UEFI system, and I'm trying to get it to load. Following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI I'm about to run boot-repair. It gives me a warning messgae "Please disable SecureBoot in the BIOS. Then try again. Do you want to continue?" Do I have to do something special to get Boot-repair to work with SecureBoot?
[06:42] <Putz3000> trust_: take a look at what ubotto just commented.
[06:43] <woo> !cryptkeeper | woo
[06:44] <woo> sparklr: it might be diffrent if it is lmv
[06:44] <woo> lvm
[06:44] <woo> !lvm | woo
[06:45] <sparklr> !lvm | sparklr
[06:45] <woo> nothing
[06:45] <woo> ub0ttu could use a bigger dict
[06:47] <woo> there was a case where the os kept locking me out of attempts on one of my encrypted volumes and with cryptkeeper and the gnome-keyring I was able to salvage a disk
[06:48] <trust_> where can i find the older ubunto versions?
[06:48] <helmut_> hi
[06:48] <sparklr> woo: okay. i want to get this user working
[06:49] <holstein> trust_: the are "not supported"... but if you search for them, you'll find them
[06:49] <woo> trust_: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
[06:50] <sparklr> holstein: any idea on how do i get this user working?
[06:50] <holstein> trust_: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
[06:51] <holstein> sparklr: i personally dont deal with the overhead of user encryption like that anymore.. i would revert to my backups and not use it
[06:52] <sparklr> holstein: can you guide which all logs to check when the user is not able to log in? so that i find out what is the problem
[06:52] <woo> sparklr: didn't try that one ok.  just install gentoo > emerge cryptkeeper > import keyfiles and #crunchbang out the passwd from old cracked shadow files
[06:52] <holstein> sparklr: not really.. im not much of a "check the logs" guy.. i typically try the passwords in TTY to make sure i have it right, then, i blow out the user configs til it works
[06:53] <trust_> thank's a lot guys (linux makes me feel like a noob )
[06:54] <woo> trust_: noob saibot
[06:54] <holstein> trust_: you should try and use 12.04 or 13.04.. not an EOL release
[06:54] <sparklr> woo: i dont get you :/
[06:55] <holstein> sparklr: do you have your passphrase? the encryption passphrase?
[06:55] <sparklr> holstein: yes i have
[06:55] <woo> tobias and boon where the creators of Mortal Kombat later made a character Noob Saibot this noob became standard thru the halo online gameplay but renamed newb
[06:55] <holstein> woo: use the #ubuntu-offtopic for chat, please.. thanks!
[06:56] <trust_> @holstein i tried both won't work on my old laptop
[06:56] <woo> holstein: he asked I explained.  we are all noobs
[06:57] <sparklr> woo: im sorry :'(
[06:57] <woo> trust_: holstein is right you shouldn't run old distros without backports
[06:57] <holstein> woo: did you understand what i asked? the channel is for support.. please refer to the topic..
[06:58] <woo> woo: no I dont understand
[06:58] <babinlonston1> What will the Sudo apt-get upgrade command will do
[06:58] <holstein> trust_: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/how-to-install-ubuntu-1204-on-non-pae.html
[06:59] <holstein> babinlonston1: upgrade packages on your system
[06:59] <auronandace> babinlonston1: fetch the latest updates (be sure to do sudo apt-get update first to refresh the repos)
[06:59] <Applesouce> Hey I have a small problem, yesterday I resized a partition and sized it back afterwards and now when Ubuntu boots up, I can't log in anymore :/ The Partition I resized was not attached where I installed Ubuntu and it shouldn't have any boot-files
[06:59] <holstein> sparklr: http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2011/04/introducing-ecryptfs-recover-private.html is something i would read
[06:59] <babinlonston1> ok will that fix the some drivers ?
[07:00] <grimeton> Applesouce: are you sure?
[07:00] <sparklr> holstein: ok ill check
[07:00] <woo> Applesouce: can you crtl+alt+f2?
[07:00] <holstein> babinlonston1: no.. it doesnt "fix" anything.. it upgrades packages.. upgraded packages might be able to provide some support, but not likely
[07:01] <Applesouce> Well now I'm on a Rescue-Disk with live-operating system, so I'm not sure, but I believe it didn't work because I already tried
[07:01] <holstein> babinlonston1: it wont hurt, asssuming, you have a driver support issue, to run 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'.. i have had a kernel upgrade provide wifi support
[07:01] <Applesouce> I'm sure it shouldn't have any Boot-Files because the HDD wasn't attached while installing Ubuntu
[07:01] <grimeton> Applesouce: any kind of error message would be helpful
[07:01] <Applesouce> There is no error message
[07:01] <callinedu29> il y a un français
[07:02] <Applesouce> The Screen turns black and back to login
[07:02] <woo> Applesouce: !fr | callinedu29
[07:02] <grimeton> Applesouce: !?
[07:02] <callinedu29> french
[07:02] <woo> !fr | callinedu29
[07:02] <babinlonston1> ok just now i installed ubuntu 12.04 LTS in Lenovo x210e Laptop but the screen flicks now so i  need to get fix it
[07:02] <callinedu29> bonjour
[07:02] <grimeton> Applesouce: so you make it to the logon of the dm and then you are logged out right after the logon?
[07:02] <anonee> holstein I'm not sure whether you're busy or not, so if not, I just wanted to tell u that take a look at this http://www.webupd8.org/2013/03/install-pulseaudio-with-built-in-system.html what do you think about it? you can also take a look here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSiMyJZvdes the equalizer seems better than rhythmbox's and even better than vlc's! :D u know it right?
[07:03] <babinlonston1> holstein: sorry its Lenovo x120e
[07:03] <callinedu29> woo tu es fr
[07:03] <holstein> Applesouce: you can try recovering grub, if that is what is broken.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[07:03] <woo> callinedu29: yes
[07:03] <holstein> babinlonston1: doesnt matter what the hardware is.. and i could google that and not get eh *exact* chipsets..
[07:03] <woo> callinedu29: 2nd generation
[07:03] <Applesouce> Yes it shows the normal login screen of Ubuntu (it should normaly login by default) and then I type in my password and the screen turns black and back to login - same thing with guest session
[07:04] <grimeton> Applesouce: was your /home on the partition you resized?
[07:04] <woo> Applesouce: and you cant get a tty to proc?  are you sure?
[07:04] <babinlonston1> k
[07:04] <woo> Applesouce: can you edit grub to boot init 1?
[07:04] <holstein> anonee: i use jack for proaudio.. eq's and whatever.. im not really interested in eq's like that "on-the-fly" personally..
[07:04] <woo> Applesouce: hold tab down after the P.O.S.T.
[07:04] <Applesouce> no all my Ubuntu-Related Files are on the same harddrive that wasn't edited I resized another harddrive that I attached after the installation of ubuntu
[07:04] <callinedu29> au revoir
[07:05] <woo> callinedu29: bye
[07:05] <grimeton> Applesouce: hm, press ctrl+alt+f1 and try to logon as the user in the console and see if that works
[07:05] <grimeton> maybe it gives you an error message at least
[07:06] <Applesouce> It didn't it shows just a black screen with a blinking cursor
[07:06] <grimeton> Applesouce: no login prompt?
[07:06] <Applesouce> nope
[07:06] <grimeton> Applesouce: ctrl+alt+f2?
[07:06] <anonee> holstein btw do u know something better than audacity for recording wave? stability issues here .. :(
[07:07] <Applesouce> I'll do a Boot-Repair and try if it works afterwards, then I will try again to login via console
[07:07] <Applesouce> if it didn't work I come back :)
[07:07] <grimeton> anonee: use cat
[07:07] <grimeton> Applesouce: yeah try that ...
[07:07] <woo> Applesouce: you could also live boot and run fsck
[07:07] <holstein> anonee: "recording wave" ?.. it doesnt matter what filetype you are tracking to.. in linux, ardour is the tool, but there is nothing wrong with audacity if JACK is overkill for you
[07:07] <holstein> !proaudio | anonee
[07:08] <Applesouce> I am on live-boot
[07:08] <anonee> thank you holstein I needed that
[07:08] <woo> !fsck
[07:09] <anonee> because i installed ardour recently but didn't become friends with it yet, and I think i need more info about JACK
[07:10] <sparklr> woo: holstein: I can login via TTY but i can see no data and i get this error "signature not found in user keyring" perhaps try the interactive 'ecryptfs-mount-private'
[07:12] <holstein> sparklr: sounds right to me..
[07:12] <babinlonston1> Will Lenovo Thinkpad X120e Supports Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ? Getting Restart After reaching logon screen
[07:12] <sparklr> holstein: any idea on what to do next to recover the user keyring?
[07:13] <holstein> babinlonston1: ideally, lenova would tell you that.. nothing about ubuntu/linux is preventing that support
[07:13] <holstein> babinlonston1: try the 12.04 and 13.04 cd's live on the hardware, and go with what is working best
[07:13] <babinlonston1> ok
[07:13] <holstein> sparklr: did you try that suggestion?
[07:14] <holstein> ecryptfs-mount-private ... or the link i gave from a live CD?
[07:15] <sparklr> holstein: ecryptfs-mount-private asks for a passphrase. I enter the correct passphrase, still it gives an error
[07:16] <holstein> sparklr: then, the passphrase is incorrect, or you are entering it incorrrectly, or the disk is damaged.. or file system is corrupt.. or something "bad"
[07:16] <sparklr> holstein: omg. No other way to recover the data now?
[07:17] <holstein> sparklr: with the passphrase..
[07:17] <sparklr> holstein: passphrase is correct
[07:17] <holstein> sparklr: encryption offers no backups though.. you have to do that seperately
[07:17] <holstein> sparklr: if the passphrase were "correct", it would be working... or some other more serious issue is going on
[07:18] <holstein> sparklr: how about from a live CD? with the suggestion from before? did that work?
[07:18] <sparklr> holstein: dont have a live CD. i look up for the link again
[07:19] <holstein> sparklr: good luck. i have to run..
[07:19] <sparklr> holstein: thanks man!
[07:24] <sparklr> holstein: i was using the incorrect passphrase, i figured out the correct one, and the disk is mounted. is there a way to get that user account working? or do i have to take a backup of the data and use a new user account?
[07:29] <sparklr> can anyone help me with this error "signature not found in user keyring"
[07:31] <Applesouce> Ok this didn't work
[07:31] <Applesouce> But I'm suppost to post this link ;D http://paste.ubuntu.com/5995321/
[07:31] <anonee> holstein: it says that I can reduce the latency to 64 ms or so if I have linux-lowlatency installed, I tried apt-get install linux-lowlatency and it said I need 180 MB it's trying to install an old kernel (<IP_ADDRESS>) is that normal? and if I accept the installation, will I still boot the current kernel? (3.8.0-27) ?
[07:32] <anonee> or should I boot the old kernel whenever I wanna use the low-latency?
[07:33] <grimeton> Applesouce: the boot up isn't your problem
[07:34] <grimeton> Applesouce: a log file or any kind of error message would be nice
[07:34] <steamboat> Can anyone tell me what the SecureBoot checkbox of boot-repair is for?
[07:34] <Applesouce> grimeton: There is no Error message ... I try to log in and it just kicks me out
[07:35] <kallebror> hello, trying to get my monitor to work and I need to make a file in /etc/x11. x11 is already an file but my path should be like this /etc/x11/xorg.conf. hwlp plz
[07:35] <grimeton> Applesouce: and you can't change to the console and log on?
[07:35] <james-ubyssey> hi, I'm trying to get dota to run on on my ultrabook but launching it gives an open gl error saying st3 compression not found, I tried force_s3tc_enable=true steam and installing libtxc-dxtn but doing so the hero models dont show
[07:35] <Applesouce> grimeton: No when I change to console, the screen just turns black and there is a flashing cursor ...
[07:35] <james-ubyssey> currently on 12.04 (cant upgrade) and graphics is hd4000
[07:36] <kallebror> how do I make a config file in /etc/x11?
[07:37] <kallebror> trying to get my korean monitor to work
[07:37] <Grmlng90> hi , anyone who could help me out a sec ?
[07:37] <dr_willis> kallebror:  if you need a /etc/X11/xorg.conf then just use a text editor
[07:38] <Grmlng90> or is there a install help channel ?
[07:38] <dr_willis> Grmlng90:  this is it
[07:38] <Grmlng90> great , ok let me type the issue
[07:38] <nowayride> Grmlng90: Just ask it, don't ask to ask
[07:38] <kallebror> sorry, im a noob. If I nano x11 how do I make a config file?
[07:38] <dr_willis> kallebror:  CASE is imporntant in linux  /etc/X11 is NOT the same as /etc/x11
[07:39] <dr_willis> kallebror:   'gedit filetomake'
[07:39] <grimeton> Applesouce: and you can't switch to a different console when you're on the console then?
[07:39] <grimeton> Applesouce: tried pressing alt+f2 or alt+f3?
[07:39] <Grmlng90> so , i tried to install the latest 13,04 (linux n00b here) , as a dual boot system , on my AMD FX 8120 8-core - 8gig ram , ATI radeon HD 6800 graphics
[07:39] <dr_willis> kallebror:  or  sudo nano /path/to/the/file   for the console
[07:39] <Applesouce> grimeton: yes they all do the same ...
[07:40] <Grmlng90>  i made a bootable USB drive from a sandisk cruzer blade 8gig using unetbootin , everything looks fine with that , put the drive in a usb 2 port , put that drive first in boot sequence ofcourse
[07:40] <dr_willis> kallebror:  for example        sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:40] <Grmlng90> ok , i get the option of install ubuntu ,
[07:40] <grimeton> Applesouce: this is strange ...
[07:40] <grimeton> Applesouce: no idea
[07:40] <Grmlng90> and then i get this flashing purple screen , flashing fading into white
[07:40] <Grmlng90> nothing else , just a huge epileptic attack
[07:40] <DrDigital> i should of never restarted the computer in the middle of the OS installing
[07:40] <dr_willis> !nomodeset | Grmlng90
[07:40] <Applesouce> grimeton: So I should just reinstall ...
[07:40] <kallebror> ye, thanks I got into the file. Now I just need to try to get this file right
[07:40] <DrDigital> cant even get the damn live cd to boot now
[07:41] <Grmlng90> so if i google ubuntu install + nomodeset i should find a manual what to do ?
[07:41] <grimeton> Applesouce: you could boot into single user mode and check the logs for any kind of errors
[07:41] <nowayride> Applesouce: late to the party, what is it doing?
[07:41] <Grmlng90> aha , great , the quest continues
[07:41] <grimeton> Applesouce: but i don't know any ubuntu-specific recovery procedure that could maybe help you
[07:42] <Grmlng90> well its definately more help here as in linux mint , i think i can finally make the choice between the 2
[07:42] <Applesouce> nowayride: yesterday I resized a HDD that wasn't attached to Ubuntu where I installed it, so there shouldn't be any Boot-Files on it, then I sized it back and now I can't log in anymore
[07:42] <DrDigital> i got same issue i guess
[07:42] <dr_willis> Grmlng90:  i dont see much point to using mint at all.. and mints main support channel is not on the freenode network i belive its on spotchat
[07:42] <DrDigital> however first time i went to install ubuntu on this system i had no problems at all?
[07:42] <DrDigital> it booted right up, i just was a dumb ass and forgot to setup a swap parition
[07:43] <Applesouce> nowayride: It shows the normal login screen, but when I log in the screen turns black and it shows the login screen again (normaly it should login by default anyways)
[07:43] <Grmlng90> yup , i went there cause i had other issues with trying to install that (brother in law said me that mint was more windows like and thus better , but screw him)
[07:43] <dr_willis> DrDigital:  you can always add a swap file.  I dont even have a swap partion on my main system
[07:43] <DrDigital> instead of waiting for it to finish installing and downloading all the updates i thought it be faster if i just reboot and started over...
[07:43] <DrDigital> now its like 10 hours later and i still cant get the live cd to boot up and ask me if i want to try or install
[07:43] <dr_willis> 'more windows like' would not be a good thing..  ;)
[07:43] <DrDigital> and ive changed hard drives, data cables, redownloaded the ISO, burned new cds
[07:44] <nowayride> Applesouce: Ooooooooooooh um, yeah the login stuff is borked. I forget exactly what causes that but try single or a recovery, sounds like passwd or PAM or something got messed up, but you'd have to check messages or syslog or whatever
[07:44] <DrDigital> I'm not that great with ubuntu… I'm learning still and i didn't know that
[07:44] <Grmlng90> in interface / way of using he meant .  Its scary in the dark you know :P
[07:44] <dr_willis> DrDigital:  you have a 2nd pc? to test out things on?
[07:44] <Grmlng90> anyway , thank you Council of the Great Ubuntu , the fellowship continues !
[07:44] <DrDigital> i got like 10
[07:44] <Grmlng90> ^lol
[07:45] <DrDigital> i know my CD is good, it boots other systems up fine
[07:45] <Applesouce> nowayride: How do I boot single or recovery?
[07:45] <dr_willis> DrDigital:  on a problem machine once.. i used a 2nd machine.. that  cd worked on.. did a 'full normal install' to a usb flash drive (8gb) then i booted that flash in  the problem pc. and imaged the usb onto its hard drive. thus cloning the usb install to the problem pc.   ;)
[07:46] <dr_willis> then i repeated it for like 5 other machines i was working on also for people. ;)
[07:46] <dr_willis> but that dosent answer why you are having such issue with that pc in the firsst place
[07:47] <nowayride> Applesouce: when booting you need to hit grub.. it's um, hold shift (or if it's server just mash a and it'll hit the edit line)? Then edit the vmlinuz line to have single at the end
[07:47] <nowayride> It's easier to remember this stuff at the console :\
[07:47] <dr_willis> !text
[07:48] <dr_willis> text  mode is just like one step 'above' single user mode. ;)     thers also the 'rescue/recovery' mode
[07:48] <nowayride> So does anyone 1) know how to inject hostname into the kickstart without using %post (is it a different name? It's pulling kickseed) 2) any repercussions for setting a proxy cache for us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu to pull installer/apt-get stuff from? Granted these are throw aways and don't need to be up to date
[07:48] <Applesouce> Ok I'll try
[07:50] <Naveen_> guys, i installed BURG and now my boot is damaged
[07:50] <Naveen_> please help
[07:50] <DrDigital> what i don't get (this is the wrong version) why am i not getting this kinda system now? I got this the first time http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/install-desktop-latest
[07:50] <Naveen_> I have ubuntu 11 live CD
[07:51] <nowayride> DrDigital: What do you mean it is the wrong version, what you installed isn't 13.04?
[07:51] <anonee> btw can I still get ubuntu 10 ?
[07:51] <anonee> I mean is it still usable? I like it!
[07:52] <DrDigital> im installing 12.04
[07:52] <DrDigital> and i gave a link to the 13
[07:52] <W-Man> OMG !!!!!!!
[07:52] <DrDigital> but they pretty similar interface compared to what i got… i posted a video on a ubuntu Facebook group
[07:52] <streulma> good morning :)
[07:52] <W-Man> So many people in here, it's insane
[07:52] <W-Man> Hi everybody
[07:52] <streulma> what's the best way to make the fonts in Ubuntu better ?
[07:53] <Slart> streulma: define better =)
[07:53] <grimeton> streulma: design your own
[07:53] <streulma> okay... like Microsoft fonts with ttfmscorefontsinstaller
[07:53] <anonee> W-Man hi, this is the ubuntu official support channel, please ask your question, otherwise, please use ubuntu-offtopic
[07:53] <grimeton> streulma: there is no such thing as lindings
[07:53] <peter1210> Can i create more than one extended partition on disk?
[07:54] <streulma> and then my fonts are not good and a bit blurry on my Retina screen
[07:54] <streulma> the problem is if I set on 1650px then it is ugly, on 2280px it is to high
[07:54] <grimeton> peter1210: on the "common layouts": no
[07:54] <Slart> streulma: there used to be some settings for font anti-aliasing.. "cleartype" kind of settings
[07:55] <peter1210> what is common layouts?
[07:55] <grimeton> peter1210: something the redmond os can read too
[07:56] <Slart> streulma: this might help you... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts#Font_settings  not sure how up-to-date that guide is though
[07:56] <DrDigital> i feel like just smashing the shit out of this computer and just buying another one
[07:56] <peter1210> i have windows 7 installed and i want to install also ubuntu and windows xp
[07:56] <grimeton> peter1210: think about virtualization
[07:56] <peter1210> i have one extended partition but i want to create one more
[07:56] <grimeton> ls
[07:57] <wilee-nilee> peter1210, Only one extended is allowed
[07:57] <peter1210> that's not good
[07:57] <Slart> peter1210: can't you just extend the one you have?
[07:57] <wilee-nilee> peter1210, seems to work for everyone else. ;)
[07:57] <peter1210> partitions are not adjecent
[07:58] <peter1210> so i can't extend them
[07:58] <Slart> peter1210: and you can't have any more primary partitions?
[07:58] <grimeton> convert to gpt
[07:59] <ghostnik11> Hi is there a program to block your IP address or to show a different IP address so that you can use a certain program
[07:59] <peter1210> i have some toshiba system volume partition which is primary
[07:59] <peter1210> i think to delete it
[07:59] <grimeton> ghostnik11: iptables ...
[07:59] <Slart> ghostnik11: I think a proxy is what you're looking for
[08:00] <Slart> ghostnik11: changing your ip is like telling people you live at the north pole.. you might fool them but you won't get any mail they send
[08:00] <ghostnik11> grimeton: iptables? Slart: I am trying to change IP so I can make calls back to home using Google voice
[08:01] <Slart> ghostnik11: and what's wrong with using the ip you have?
[08:01] <grimeton> ghostnik11: you can change your ip to anything you want, but it won't help you, as long as you don't get it forwarded by the provider you're currently using
[08:01] <Tex_Nick> Slart : great analogy ;-)
[08:01] <kallebror> anyone have a korean 1440p ips monitor here?
[08:02] <ghostnik11> Slart: well now I am in the states where me and my family live but will outside of the states and Google voice doesn't work outside usa
[08:02] <grimeton> ghostnik11: go for a different solution, e.g. skype
[08:03] <crass> ghostnik11: proxy?
[08:03] <Tech-1> ghostnik11,  thats cuz its nsa approved
[08:03] <ghostnik11> grimeton: so first I would have to find out if provider will allow me to show the different IP, yeah I won't know until in get there. Also skype isn't good on dial up speeds
[08:04] <Slart> ghostnik11: then you need a proxy.. those come in different variations..free/cheap ones might not be that good, good ones usually cost money. Are you sure it's not just when you register you have to be in the us? I assume you've tried?
[08:04] <crass> ghostnik11: and who says google voice doesn't work outside the US? I've used it many times
[08:04] <grimeton> ghostnik11: you're beating a dead horse ...
[08:04] <Tinashe> Hi Guys...
[08:05] <ghostnik11> Tech-1: lol, so Google voice is NSA approved? If that's true then they have a lot of my conversation with my family
[08:05] <crass> there are some countries that google voice won't allow you to call from, like Burma
[08:05] <crass> but then I just used it through tor
[08:05] <Tinashe> Guys got a question...anyone...
[08:05] <Slart> Tinashe: just ask
[08:06] <Tinashe> sure...anyone doing web application development in Java...need help with something...
[08:06] <ghostnik11> crass: oh well I will be satisfied if I can text family from where I am using Google voice
[08:07] <Slart> Tinashe: just ask the question.. you might want to try a java specific channel as well.. I'm guessing there has to be a ##java channel here
[08:07] <Tinashe> I need to define a service bean in a configuration xml file of a web app and I am getting a bean instantiation error...
[08:07] <crass> ghostnik11: are you talking about using the web-interface or wanting them to relay to a local (foreign) number?
[08:07] <Tinashe> ok let me try #java...
[08:07] <vijacdblz> khk.hyk
[08:08] <ghostnik11> crass: no I am talking about being on my tablet and texting my mom for example using my goog le
[08:08] <ghostnik11> crass: voice app
[08:08] <Tinashe> ....nothing like #java.....
[08:08] <Tinashe> ----invites only...
[08:08] <matzo> Can anyone tell me how to NOT kill process after closing SSH connection?
[08:08] <crass> ghostnik11: yeah, that should work
[08:08] <grimeton> matzo: screen, tmux
[08:09] <grimeton> matzo: i recommend tmux
[08:09] <Slart> matzo: nohup might work as well.. there might be some configuration stuff you can do on the server side as well
[08:09] <Slart> Tinashe: try ##java
[08:09] <ghostnik11> crass: and I want to be able to have family members be able to text my Google voice number and I am able to receive it while overseas
[08:09] <Slart> !register | Tinashe
[08:09] <Tinashe> Slart:------ only invites ---
[08:09] <crass> ghostnik11: you'll get it through your google voice account
[08:09] <Slart> Tinashe: you need to be registered to join
[08:10] <matzo> grimeton Slart: will this work with PHP SSH2?
[08:10] <Tinashe> how...
[08:10] <Slart> Tinashe: registered to freenode.. not the java channel
[08:10] <Mrokii> Hello. I am getting dbus-related errors in an irc-client I'm using (in conjunction with a plugin). I guess the most important error-message is this: weechat     > python: stdout/stderr: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoServer: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-Msmk39X5eR: Connection refused
[08:10] <grimeton> matzo: yes, but maybe you want an init script OR a cron job?
[08:10] <Mrokii> Does anybody know what could cause the error above?
[08:10] <kallebror>  /msg nickserv set email
[08:10] <ghostnik11> crass: yeah but I don't know if it will show up as I will be on internet not in the usa
[08:10] <Tinashe> am on free node...can access ubuntu and openmrs without reg...
[08:10] <kallebror> he
[08:10] <Slart> matzo: it should.. afaik it's not dependant on the medium.. it would say it depends on the server
[08:11] <crass> ghostnik11: of course it will
[08:11] <ghostnik11> crass: hence why I asked if maybe I can block my IP address and show a USA one
[08:11] <kallebror> anyone with an korean 27 ips monitor here?
[08:11] <Slart> Tinashe: yes, some channels are open to all.. others require that you register.. I assume it cuts down on spambots and such
[08:11] <Tinashe> Slart: sure how doi reg...
[08:11] <Slart> !register | Tinashe
[08:11] <crass> ghostnik11: use a US proxy, if you want
[08:11] <Tinashe> !register
[08:12] <ghostnik11> crass: okay well would i need an program for Ubuntu for that?
[08:12] <tinashe> Slart: seems I have registered...can I try #java now...
[08:13] <Slart> tinashe: sure, give it a go
[08:13] <grimeton> the registration help note is really useful
[08:13] <grimeton> tinashe: /msg nickserv help
[08:13] <crass> ghostnik11: check out the Tor project
[08:14] <crass> ghostnik11: depends maybe where you will be going, but I doubt you'll have a problem logging in to google's servers anywhere
[08:14] <tinashe> gimeton: Slart: still cannot access ##java
[08:14] <Slart> tinashe: try #java
[08:14] <tinashe> Slart: tried the same...
[08:14] <Slart> tinashe: and make sure you're actually logged in.. not just registered
[08:14] <grimeton> tinashe: http://www.freenode.org/using_the_network.shtml
[08:15] <Cheznet> can i change my name to techno knob
[08:15] <Slart> Cheznet: /nick YourNewNick  should work
[08:15] <Grmlng90> ok , ive been reading into that nomodeset treath , Im not getting there :( I get the flickering screen even before i come to the ubuntu install menu where you could press f6
[08:16] <Grmlng90> if i press f6 while its flickkering , it jumps black
[08:16] <filipsheva> 2
[08:16] <Cheznet> should i i paste on bumper
[08:16] <Slart> Cheznet: not sure about spaces in nicks though.. perhaps a _ instead
[08:16] <Cheznet> it i what ever ?
[08:17] <Slart> Cheznet: huh?
[08:17] <Cheznet> reboot yours
[08:18] <matzo> Slart: nohup ./video samples/sample & \n  - this is now running can you tell me how can I exit this script?
[08:18] <Slart> matzo: "kill" might work. You'll need the process id first
[08:18] <Grmlng90> should i try another version of ubuntu instead of the 13,04 , as i cant get to the menu where i can select nomodeset
[08:20] <Ace78> Greetings. Anyone avaiable for some help?
[08:20] <Grmlng90> anyone ?
[08:20] <Tex_Nick> Ace78 ask your question
[08:20] <Slart> matzo: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8007380/how-to-kill-a-nohup-process
[08:21] <Slart> matzo: lots of good information in that thread
[08:21] <Ace78> I recently had a power failure. Now my Ubuntu Server 12.04 hangs at "Starting system log daemon"
[08:21] <matzo> Slart: tnx will look into it
[08:22] <Ace78> I can still boot into rescue mode and checked all hdd without discovering anything that caught my attention.
[08:22] <tinashe> Guys...Ubuntu guys...have an Idea...anyone thought of it...
[08:22] <Ampelbein> Ace78: Can you check if the /var/log/syslog file shows anything related?
[08:23] <bekks> tinashe: Yes, we did. We decided to use single . at the end of sentences, and no . withing them. :)
[08:23] <charcoil> to start off frist i need to change my whole ubuntu around
[08:23] <Grmlng90> I got the exact same issue as this guy , and i cant find a solution (exept my screen is not just black , its flashing lke crazy until i press f6 , then it goes all black..)
[08:23] <Grmlng90> http://askubuntu.com/questions/320712/how-do-i-fix-problem-with-trying-to-install-ubuntu-black-screen-appears
[08:23] <charcoil> thats for the start
[08:24] <charcoil> faster the beter they say
[08:24] <tinashe> bekks: sure...I wanted to ask if anyone from ubuntu could code two operating systems running parallel on each navigable desktop...
[08:24] <charcoil> quility not quantity
[08:24] <Ace78> Ampelbein: /var/log/syslog does not exist when booting into rescue mode
[08:24] <ghostnik11> crass: will do, I have used Tor before but don't they have it for tablet, but whether it is my laptop or tablet It doesn't matter as long as i can communicate with family is okay with me. Thanks for the help
[08:24] <Slart> tinashe: one computer, two screens and one operating system running on each?
[08:25] <NikP> Hi.
[08:25] <tinashe> bekks: as does the kubuntu addable desktops...maybe for fun or cline server programming...
[08:25] <tinashe> Slart: yes...
[08:25] <Slart> tinashe: look into virtualbox or vmware.. I think that's as close as you'll get at the moment
[08:25] <babinlonston1> is it possible to backup a system using dd command over a Local area network to other PC ? And can we restore it in future ?
[08:26] <tinashe> Slart: well that works too...but am talking of parallel dual boot...
[08:27] <Grmlng90> anyone who knows why i cant even get to the install menu where i can set the nomodeset ?
[08:27] <Grmlng90> please
[08:27] <NikP> If I want to add a online account for Google, the link is invalid and there stands: "Error: invalid_request Invalid response_type: code&access_type=offline&approval_prompt=force"
[08:27] <streulma> hey guys, how can I install Wayland on Ubuntu ?
[08:27] <Slart> tinashe: sounds like a great plan but it seems we're having enough problems just running one operating system at a time.. I think having two systems fightning for resources might be harder than what it's worth
[08:27] <NikP> How to add the account manual?
[08:28] <Slart> tinashe: if it's even possible with todays hardware
[08:28] <Ace78> Any other suggestions?
[08:29] <grimeton> tinashe: giving more than one process the possibility to manage the same piece of hardware never really worked out in the pc world
[08:29] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, You want it in every boot?
[08:29] <grimeton> tinashe: boot DOS and you get exactly that
[08:29] <Ampelbein> Ace78: In rescue mode, try "/usr/sbin/rsyslogd -f /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf" to check your configuration
[08:29] <Grmlng90> No , im just trying to install Ubuntu , i have this graphic card issue (ati radeon hd6800) so my screen starts flickering before i can even install Ubuntu
[08:30] <Ace78> Hm. /usr/sbin/rsyslogd was not found
[08:30] <Ampelbein> Ace78: If /var/log/syslog doesn't exist at all that could point to a problem with rsyslogd's config. Check the /var/log folder for older syslog files (syslog.1 etc)
[08:30] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, Have you looked at the ubuntu forums thread on nomodeset?
[08:30] <Grmlng90> so they suggested to select nomodeset in the 'install menu' after the grub , but i cant even get there as the screen starts flashing purple and white right after i select the 'install ubuntu' from grub
[08:30] <tosate> Hi there! There's a configuration file on my server which is rewritten every night so that my changes are gone. I would like to monitor this file and find out by which program it gets rewritten. Is that possible?
[08:31] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, who suggests this, and use nicks.
[08:31] <Grmlng90> I have been reading this one http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[08:31] <Jordan_U> tosate: Which file?
[08:31] <Ampelbein> Ace78: What system are you running? What does "dpkg -l | grep syslog" show?
[08:31] <Grmlng90> so you got the title " How to enable kernel options on the livecd (before install)"
[08:31] <grimeton> tosate: yes
[08:31] <grimeton> tosate: look into inotify
[08:31] <tinashe> Slart: well, there are more and more cores for PCs, maybe updating the PC to 128bit for more registers...
[08:31] <Grmlng90> but that screen he shows on a picture in the thread , i cant even get there , as its flashing before that shows up (i think it tries to show this screen , but here is the graphic card issue already i guess=
[08:32] <grimeton> tosate: but before you start digging deeper - check if the change time and the time of the nightly cron job match ...
[08:32] <tinashe> grimeton: does not have to be a super computer...
[08:32] <streulma> is Mir also supported already ?
[08:32] <tosate> Jordan_U: It's a .qmail file which is rewritten by PLESK every night.
[08:32] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, You edit the kernel by hitting e for edit at the first gui.
[08:32] <tosate> grimeton: I can't find a matching cron job
[08:33] <grimeton> tosate: then inotify is the way to go
[08:33] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, or hit f5 and choose it.
[08:33] <Grmlng90> So in the black and white screen where i can select 'try ubuntu first '  or 'install ubuntu ?
[08:33] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, yes
[08:33] <Slart> tinashe: I don't think we need more cores or registers... I think we need new hardware on the motherboard. This discussion is getting a bit offtopic though.. try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic instead
[08:33] <Grmlng90> ok COOL , gonna try that out
[08:33] <wilee-nilee> Grmlng90, Sorry f6 at that screen does it
[08:33] <Ace78> rc rsyslog 5.8.6-1ubuntu8.1
[08:33] <Grmlng90> ill come back to you  if that works (only got one pc so..) , and if it didnt ill come back too
[08:34] <Grmlng90> ah ok , i was following that manual and expecting to see that purple screen like in the picture , stupid of me
[08:34] <Grmlng90> see you in a minute , hopefully from IRC in ubuntu
[08:35] <Ampelbein> Ace78: Did you install a different syslog daemon?
[08:35] <Ace78> Ampelbein: I seem to have system-log-daemon
[08:36] <Ampelbein> Ace78: Is there a reason you chose that one over rsyslog?
[08:36] <Ace78> Ampelbein: trying to install rsyslog I am asked to remove klogd and sysklogd
[08:36] <tosate> grimeton: I'll give it a try. Thank you!
[08:37] <grimeton> tosate: look into the inotify-tools package
[08:37] <Ampelbein> Ace78: Well, yeah, rsyslog replaces those two and should be the default in Ubuntu.
[08:38] <Ace78> So am I supposed to install rsyslog instead?
[08:38] <Ampelbein> Ace78: That is what Ubuntu uses by default. Was that a fresh 12.04 install?
[08:39] <Ace78> I initially installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from scratch
[08:39] <Lever> how i update the command-not-found
[08:40] <Ampelbein> Ace78: Very strange. Install rsyslog, reboot and see if the system starts now.
[08:40] <Ace78> Ok. I need to add a nameserver first. How can it be done via shell?
[08:41] <Ace78> Got it.
[08:41] <pc_magas> Ace78, Of cource you need a namewserver
[08:42] <Ace78> I know I do
[08:42] <pc_magas> if it is to have a domain name under 2 ips (I think)
[08:42] <grimeton> Ace78: $EDITOR /etc/resolv.conf
[08:43] <pc_magas> Also servers are configured via terminal
[08:45] <Ace78> Looks good
[08:45] <tinashe> Slart: sure...got in java...leaving...
[08:45] <Ace78> I was already about to reinstall the system. You just saved my weekend
[08:45] <Slart> tinashe: ok, good luck! bye
[08:45] <tinashe> Slart: btw, what's the "quit" argument...
[08:45] <GIM> anyone had any trouble with tftp service on 13.04 ??? had to add "sleep 30" at start of default file
[08:46] <Slart> tinashe: /part
[08:46] <tinashe> Slart: thanks bye...
[08:47] <grimm90> Ok the nomodeset did work this way , whats great
[08:47] <grimm90> Im now at the
[08:48] <grimm90> Install screen 'something else' . I would lile ext4 , what do I usse as mount poimt ? Just / ?
[08:49] <bekks> grimm90: For the root filesystem, you have to use /
[08:50] <NikP> If I want to add a online account for Google, the link is invalid and there stands: "Error: invalid_request. Invalid response_type: code&access_type=offline&approval_prompt=force"
[08:50] <NikP> Is it an error in the source or can I add the account manual?
[08:51] <grimm90> Im afraid I dont fully understand that . So / as mount point iss ok to install the os on ? Or do you recommend something else ?
[08:51] <NikP> In the bugs archive for ubuntu-online-accounts nobody has my problem?
[08:52] <grimeton> anybody got a link to documentation related to /etc/ssl/ ?
[08:52] <babinlonston1> Is its possible to backup a HDD Using dd Command to a remote Location and restore it from that in future ?
[08:52] <grimeton> babinlonston1: yes and no
[08:52] <grimeton> babinlonston1: yes you can create an image
[08:53] <babinlonston1> How its Yes
[08:53] <NikP> Has anyone got my problem too?
[08:53] <grimeton> babinlonston1: but you can hit at ton of problems when you restore the plain image and the CHS aren't the same ...
[08:53] <babinlonston1> oh
[08:53] <grimeton> babinlonston1: i'd prefer a tarball OR you just put a filesystem on top of sparse file and backup that then
[08:53] <babinlonston1> ok
[08:54] <grimeton> babinlonston1: that way you never get in touch with the "real" hardware
[08:54] <grimeton> babinlonston1: think of it kinda like a container
[08:54] <babinlonston1> grimeton:  ok Sir
[08:54] <grimeton> babinlonston1: and really important: mount the filesystem r/o BEFORE doing the dump
[08:54] <grimeton> or at least flush the caches to disk
[08:54] <babinlonston1> oik
[08:55] <grimeton> babinlonston1: but think about using tar or rsync or whatever, it's the better choice
[08:55] <babinlonston1> ya its presently im using rsync
[08:55] <grimeton> babinlonston1: so what's the problem with it?
[08:55] <filipsheva> connect #debian
[08:56] <filipsheva> exit
[08:57] <babinlonston1> grimeton:  Always i used to install manually in my virtual machine so i asked that way
[08:58] <grimeton> babinlonston1: ah
[08:58] <babinlonston1> im using KVM and there are 10 Virtual machines running if any Users asking me to create new vm i need to do it manually , is it possible to automate like script ?
[08:59] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[08:59] <grimeton> babinlonston1: sure - if you google a bit you'll find tons of ways i guess
[08:59] <ShapeShifter499> can someone please point me to the latest ubuntu raring kernel I can obtain
[08:59] <deanrock0> hi, why can't I access samba shares from open file dialog if I "mount" them from nautilus->Network->browser network?
[08:59] <ShapeShifter499> I run raring and I just wanted to be sure I was on the latest and greatest kernel
[08:59] <grimeton> ShapeShifter499: should be the one in the tree
[09:00] <grimeton> ShapeShifter499: but you can get nightly builds of mainline kernels
[09:00] <babinlonston1> grimeton: hmmm ill
[09:00] <grimeton> ShapeShifter499: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[09:00] <ShapeShifter499> grimeton, tree?  sorry I'm more of a end user
[09:00] <grimeton> ShapeShifter499: in the package repo
[09:04] <ShapeShifter499> grimeton, uname -a shows 3.8.0-29    is that the latest stable kernel?
[09:04] <tosate> grimeton: Now, I am able to log changes to my monitored file. How do I determine which process altered the file?
[09:04] <grimeton> ShapeShifter499: on my raring machine the latest is -27 so i'd say: yes
[09:05] <ShapeShifter499> I was wondering because my system was freezing lately and I don't believe I installed anything to cause this, updating to xorg-edgers appears to have fixed the problem but time will only tell
[09:05] <ShapeShifter499> grimeton, thanks
[09:06] <rjknight1> anyone here know how to make a ubuntu proxy server for ubuntu clients to be able to update offline and download software offline?
[09:07] <Slart> rjknight1: isn't there an apt-proxy package or similar.. I recall using something like that a couple of years ago
[09:08] <rjknight1> @Slart similar to that. Do you have any link such us how-to, guides or any.
[09:09] <grimeton> rjknight1: that's called a mirror
[09:09] <Slart> rjknight1: not sure this is exactly what you want but here it is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptProxy
[09:09] <grimeton> rjknight1: http://www.howtoforge.com/local_debian_ubuntu_mirror
[09:10] <bazhang> apt-mirror (source: apt-mirror): APT sources mirroring tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.9-1 (raring), package size 13 kB, installed size 103 kB    rjknight1 or perhaps this
[09:10] <charcoil> is there a app of some sort to keep track of the kde etc of everty app installed on this system
[09:11] <grimeton> charcoil: dpkg
[09:11] <charcoil> ty
[09:11] <rjknight1> @Slart @grimeton @bazhang Thanks! my goal is having a proxy server that may use by the clients offline updating and offline downloads of software.
[09:12] <grimeton> rjknight1: a nifty way would be to have a transparent proxy like squid that internally reroutes the requests to the ubuntu server to it's own repo
[09:12] <bazhang> rjknight1, no need for the @ , just tab complete
[09:13] <rjknight1> bazhang: there you go. :)
[09:13] <rjknight1> grimeton: let me try it.
[09:13] <rjknight1> anymore guidelines or tips?
[09:14] <nicofiore> salve
[09:14] <nicofiore> !list
[09:15] <charcoil> up dated protacocs m8
[09:15] <intellectus> Are X fonts still used in ubuntu?
[09:15] <charcoil> up dated protacols m8 i could use
[09:15] <intellectus> Also, where are the X fonts installed, if any?
[09:15] <nicofiore> salve
[09:15] <charcoil> if its fun yes
[09:16] <grimeton> intellectus: dpkg -l | grep -i font
[09:16] <charcoil> or still fun
[09:17] <intellectus> OK, so where are the X fonts installed in the system so i can check them out.
[09:17] <grimeton> intellectus: dpkg -l | grep xfonts | awk '{ print $2 }' | while read line; do dpkg -L "$line"; done | grep -E '^/usr.*' | sort | uniq | less
[09:19] <intellectus> grimeton: Thanks, that reavealed a few directories
[09:22] <intellectus> OK:   There's a good amount of fonts in /usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi
[09:22] <intellectus> Do apps still use these fonts or are they safe to delete?
[09:22] <intellectus> Someone trie to tell me they're depreciated
[09:22] <grimeton> intellectus: i wouldn't delete 'em if I were you ...
[09:22] <intellectus> exactly what i thought
[09:23] <intellectus> i'll keep them and i also want to use them with xcb code.
[09:23] <grimeton> intellectus: feel free todo so
[09:24] <Grmlng90> Ok , nxt round of support needed . If got so far to install Ubuntu , its installed on a 65gig partition of my second HDD in ext4 , mount point / . Everything seemed to go alright until it was finished and asked for a reboot . Then i got this wicked screen with blue lines and some red squares . Got stuck there , hard rebooted pc , and it doesnt give me the option wich OS i want to load , it immediatly loads windows (installed on my prima
[09:24] <Grmlng90> ry SSD hd)
[09:25] <[Gentoo]> Grmlng90: looks like the bootloader didnt get installed
[09:25] <Grmlng90> dammed ,
[09:25] <Grmlng90> but that awfull trippy blue lined screen was normal ?
[09:26] <[Gentoo]> no
[09:26] <Grmlng90> mm , interssting , it looked like my pc was having  a seizure
[09:26] <[Gentoo]> that might be something to do with the livecd, are you using a nvidia card?
[09:27] <Grmlng90> ATI radeon hd 6800 , i had to put the nomodeset line or i couldnt install
[09:28] <Grmlng90> and i used a boot USB as my dvd drive is broken :(
[09:28] <harshadura> hi all, im getting weird error while installing Kubuntu 12.04.2 LTS version.
[09:28] <Grmlng90> on the partition screen of ubuntu in the install , i choose for Boat loader , the same as where my windows boot loader is ?
[09:29] <harshadura>  this is the error stacktrace: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5995519/
[09:29] <harshadura> basically it says : some keyboard layout issue,
[09:29] <pc_magas> Grmlng90, then use USB live cd again to install the frub first
[09:29] <pc_magas> Grmlng90, I think it is a HUGE MIstake
[09:29] <harshadura> can anyone help me, thanks
[09:30] <[Gentoo]> Grmlng90: you need to install it to the main drive, like /dev/sda
[09:30] <Grmlng90> owkay , enlighten me please , i try to do the best i can but its not an easy job
[09:30] <[Gentoo]> not sda1
[09:30] <[Gentoo]> or whatever
[09:30] <[Gentoo]> because "sda" is basically a very small partition at the start for the bootloader
[09:31] <Grmlng90> ok i think i went wrong there
[09:31] <grimeton> "sda" is the whole hard drive
[09:31] <grimeton> and the stage 0 loader is put into the mbr there
[09:31] <[Gentoo]> yes but you install the bootloader to "sda" because it starts before the main partitions
[09:31] <harshadura> pc_magas: got a min
[09:31] <Grmlng90> so should i try to go back into the ubuntu setup and switch the boot loader to /dev/sda ?
[09:32] <Grmlng90> this is all very complicated for a simple guy like me
[09:32] <grimeton> Grmlng90: is windows still booting?
[09:32] <[Gentoo]> Grmlng90: im pretty sure it should be selected by default
[09:32] <Grmlng90> yup , windows still works fine (typing from there now)
[09:32] <Grmlng90> then i dont understand what i did wrong if it was defautl , i didnt change it .
[09:32] <grimeton> Grmlng90: what bootloader did you see when you tried to start windows?
[09:33] <grimeton> Grmlng90: or did windows just start?
[09:33] <Grmlng90> nothing special , it went straigth to windows
[09:33] <Grmlng90> just like nothing else was installed
[09:33] <grimeton> Grmlng90: then you didn't change the MBR
[09:33] <grimeton> Grmlng90: (if there still is one)
[09:33] <Grmlng90> mbr ?
[09:33] <grimeton> Grmlng90: the thing is: if you install grub to sda, it will change the mbr and then - if this fails - it won't even boot into windows
[09:33] <Grmlng90> (im asking my wife to bring her laptop so i can get into this IRC , while i try the process again on this pc)
[09:34] <Grmlng90> well everything is backup on external drives , and i just clean installed the windows so as long as i can reformat its ok to mess it up i guess (rather not but you know what i mean)
[09:37] <grimeton> Grmlng90: yeah, so instead of booting from a cd/dvd and trying to repair the grub setup, I'd suggest you reinstall ubuntu and then let it write the grub stuff to the mbr of sda
[09:37] <flicher> test test
[09:37] <Grmlng90> ok thats me up here
[09:38] <Grmlng90> mbr = master bood record ?
[09:38] <Grmlng90> boot*
[09:38] <grimeton> Grmlng90: yes
[09:39] <Aravindgeek> Grmlng90: try supergrubdisk to boot to ubuntu and install grub2.
[09:39] <Grmlng90> allright , its not quiet clear yet to me (thanks a million anyway for helping a noob like me) , im going to try to reinstall , and when im at the partition screen ill ask if needed (flicher)
[09:40] <flicher> so that supergrubdisk , i could make a bootable usb , get into ubuntu and change the grub to grub 2 ?
[09:41] <grimeton> flicher: yeah, but in grmlng90's case it's "easier" to reinstall
[09:41] <flicher> (dvd drive is dead)
[09:41] <ind> hi
[09:42] <ind> grub install
[09:42] <flicher> but if i start up from the ubuntu boot usb , it seems to be already grub2 ? or amm i wrong
[09:43] <grimeton> flicher: grub2 where?
[09:43] <Aravindgeek> flicher : i said install not to change . since grub2 is not properly installed
[09:43] <deanrock0> any idea what can i do if i get "conflicting gb hw usage nouveau vs EFI VGA removing generic driver" and pc freezes on boot?
[09:44] <flicher> black and white screen i get , when it tries to boot from usb . Could be i am just getting messed up confused
[09:46] <Aravindgeek> flicher : ubuntu disk or supergrubdisk
[09:46] <Grmlinger90> im just using the ubuntu iso , burned with unetbootin to usb drive
[09:46] <Grmlinger90> 23.04
[09:46] <Grmlinger90> 13.04 sry
[09:47] <Grmlinger90> (flicher is dead , its me now)
[09:48] <Grmlinger90> ok so Erase ubuntu and reinstall , or do i go to 'something else' ? I would like to be able to choose file format myself
[09:48] <Aravindgeek> fileformat= filesystem type ? if so choose something else
[09:49] <Grmlinger90> in something else it says now /dev/sda1 - 104mb windows 7 (loader) . While 'device for boot loader installation' is by default on /dev/sda
[09:51] <Aravindgeek> k
[09:51] <Grmlinger90> ubuntu itself is installed on a partition of my second HD , so /dev/sdb6
[09:52] <Grmlinger90> /dev/sdb5 is 4gig swap (needed?)
[09:53] <eduardo> dont know what channel to go with problem upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10... i got stuck in the middle of the upgrading process
[09:53] <Kelvin> hi
[09:53] <grimeton> Grmlinger90: the idea is that on a reinstall the grub-scripts are better able to figure out what boot setup you have than some "outside" os
[09:54] <grimeton> Grmlinger90: just reinstall it the way you did before
[09:54] <eduardo> and dont know how to complete upgrading...
[09:56] <blazemore> eduardo: can you run "sudo do-release-upgrade" from a terminal? If you get errors please put them on http://paste.ubuntu.com
[09:56] <Grmlinger90> so just to double check , current setup is /dev/sda = nothing /dev/sda1 NTFS  104mb windows 7 loader . /dev/sda2 = windows itself
[09:56] <Grmlinger90> /dev/sdb5 = swap (4gig) , /dev/sdb6 = ext4 Ubuntu , /Dev/sdb3 = NTFS (for data for all OS)
[09:57] <Grmlinger90> Boot loader /dev/sda
[09:57] <DrDigital> i installed debian, no problem
[09:57] <Grmlinger90> or should that be /dev/sda1 , where the windows boot loader is
[09:57] <DrDigital> now I'm running the ubuntu live cd… and its running as id expect it to
[09:57] <DrDigital> WEIRD
[09:58] <eduardo> blazemore it says havent found any new version
[09:58] <blazemore> eduardo: What is the output of "cat /etc/issue" ?
[09:58] <grimeton> Grmlinger90: sda not sda1
[09:58] <Grmlinger90> ok ill try
[09:58] <blazemore> DrDigital: Why is that weird? Do you have a support question?
[09:59] <Cyrax> hi all. i have a question about ubuntu and this desktop rotation nad make desktop as cube. i heard i needed a powerful graphic card or video card to do it.. what kind?
[09:59] <eduardo> blazemore: i faced this problem first of all https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1207809
[09:59] <DrDigital> blazemore because i spent hours trying to do this… and kept getting flickering display
[09:59] <Cyrax> *and
[09:59] <blazemore> eduardo: What is the output of "cat /etc/issue" ?
[09:59] <Grmlinger90> and for the /dev/sdb6 , mount point just ' / ' right ?
[09:59] <DrDigital> over an hour ago some people here where all talking about same problem… and i decided to try to install a different OS then ubuntu and it made my issue go away
[10:00] <DrDigital> i could not get the ubuntu live cd to boot
[10:00] <Grmlinger90> (the one where i want ubuntu installed ,all my files will be on external disks anyway)
[10:00] <eduardo> blazemore : Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[10:00] <DrDigital> it start and then my screen would flicker
[10:00] <blazemore> eduardo: OK, now then run "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade"
[10:00] <fuzzybunny69y> hey guys I know this isn't really related to ubuntu but with php if it is returning a umask value of 018 what does that mean?
[10:01] <blazemore> fuzzybunny69y: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask
[10:02] <eduardo> blazemore : after sudo upgrade it says: 0 actualizados, 0 se instalarán, 0 para eliminar y 0 no actualizados.
[10:02] <blazemore> eduardo: It seems the upgrade worked fine then
[10:02] <eduardo> 0 upgraded, 0 going to install, 0 to delete and 0 not updated
[10:03] <Grmlinger90> dr digital ,i had the same issue , i got it solved by the nomodeset code piece ,
[10:03] <eduardo> blazemore: as said before i faced the bug i put before, as they say i made room in  my boot partition deltetin one old kernel
[10:03] <grimeton> Grmlinger90: it will be / automagically
[10:03] <Grmlinger90> aight , thx
[10:03] <ishwon> hey folks
[10:04] <Senor> who is farmiliar with ubuntu `precise version ?
[10:05] <grimeton> Senor: just ask your question
[10:05] <Cyrax> So are there any graphic card or video card i need to have to make sure i cna rotate ubuntu desktop and make it as cube? and if so.. what kind?
[10:05] <eduardo> then i run the upgrading process with some errors....in ubuntu-desktop and linux-image-extra-<IP_ADDRESS>-generic-<IP_ADDRESS>.40
[10:06] <Grmlinger90> 'installation failed' following file did not match its source copy on the cd/dvd . /target/uer/share/icons/highcontrast/icon-theme.cache
