[11:21] <ShapeShifter499> don't ask what I did
[11:21] <ShapeShifter499> xD
[11:21] <bekks> gogeta: There are ways... :P
[11:21] <melodie> hi
[11:21] <TJ-> g_: multiple lines that confirm that 'nouveau' is managing the GPU ... once you see the log-file you'll see the pattern. If the driver is "VESA" instead, that may explain not having multiple-screen options
[11:21] <g_> TJ-:  but still why is the laptop monitor doesnt wanna go above 640x (SONY VAIO)
[11:21] <gogeta> !dialup
[11:21] <gogeta> not must be dead
[11:22] <gogeta> bot
[11:22] <Ben64> or it doesn't have a dialup trigger
[11:22] <gogeta> !modem
[11:22] <gogeta> lol
[11:22] <TJ-> g_: The available modes depend upon which display driver is being used by X, and that the driver is reading the EDID information from the attached monitors
[11:22] <g_> should I go ahead an reinstall the nvidia driver...
[11:23] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, gogeta I'll brb in around 30 mins to a hour or so... I'll reinstall to 64 bit
[11:23] <g_> which would be the best method to do so TJ- ?
[11:23] <gogeta> its as simple as that guide
[11:23] <g_> TJ-:  I should get the latest latest driver....
[11:23] <TJ-> g_: First, determine what is in use now
[11:23] <g_> TJ-: all I see here is nouveau nouveau nouveau.. (many of them)
[11:23] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, gogeta but it wont look like I wen't anywhere, I have a online bnc service lol
[11:24] <g_> TJ-:  I also see the proper resolution mentioned ([    46.321] (II) NOUVEAU(0): Modeline "1366x768"x0.0   72.00  1366 1388 1410 1430  768 776 784 840 -hsync -vsync (50.3 kHz))
[11:24] <ShapeShifter499> brb
[11:24] <TJ-> g_: OK, then it's "nouveau" :)   ... you should also see lots of lines with "modeline" immediately after a monitor has been discovered. That should help determine what monitors and modes the driver has found and can use
[11:24] <ddtge> i'm trying to config infra-red receiver
[11:24] <TJ-> g_: can you pastebin the log-file?
[11:25] <ddtge> someone can help me with that?
[11:25] <gogeta> gotta love nivida driver fail
[11:25] <g_> TJ-: there u go: http://pastebin.com/MYG01RdQ
[11:26] <witakr|NiteNite> Nite folks.. see you guys in about 18 hours
[11:26] <g_> gogeta:  :( next time I m buying a laptop or any device, NO NVIDIA. -
[11:26] <g_> gogeta:  No SONY Vaio for that matter either.
[11:26] <gogeta> infrared that is a good one
[11:26] <gogeta> Ati is far worse
[11:26] <Ben64> g_: nvidia works great in linux
[11:27] <g_> Ben64:  doesnt seem to be the case in practice.
[11:27] <Ben64> you should have installed with jockey instead of apt-get
[11:27] <gogeta> it just sounds like it did not verbally the supported Res
[11:27] <g_> Ben64: did it before, jockey failed.
[11:27] <g_> Ben64: it couldnt activate the driver.
[11:27] <TJ-> g_: that pastebin is missing some lines from the start of the log-file. Can you re-paste including them please?
[11:28] <gogeta> give it a month on a brand new card
[11:28] <gogeta> it will be fixed
[11:29] <g_> TJ-: any terminal command to dumpy my log in pastebin without copying pasting around?:(
[11:29] <TJ-> g_: from what I am seeing, I suspect the problem is there is a hard-coded /etc/X11/xorg.conf that is over-riding the resolutions detected
[11:29] <g_> dump*
[11:29] <melodie> I would like an information about when to write a blueprint : someone ?
[11:29] <gogeta> yes but I forgot the name
[11:29] <Ben64> pastebinit
[11:29] <g_> TJ-: actually I installed Ubuntu server 64bit and then installed kubuntu package on top. if that would have to do with anything. .. .
[11:29] <TJ-> g_: If you "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" you can do "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[11:30] <dummy> does anyone know an distribution which is compatible with is networkcard? Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 03)
[11:30] <gogeta> that might server does that have the kernel with CPU drivets
[11:30] <TJ-> g_: probably the nvidia proprietary driver left its xorg.conf behind when you un-installed... if you can get me that complete log-file we'll soon know
[11:30] <gogeta> drivers
[11:30] <dummy> or does anyone know where can i check that out?
[11:30] <melodie> dummy, any if you install the bcm drivers
[11:30] <g_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251507/
[11:30] <g_> TJ-:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251507/ done :) Thanks for the shortcut :) Linux rules for that...
[11:30] <dummy> melodie, can install the bcm drivers on backtrack 5 ?
[11:30] <melodie> dummy, did you try the wiki ?
[11:31] <yeats> !backtrack | dummy
[11:31] <g_> As a Web Designer I think I should volonteer to help Linux guys build a decent GUI :-)
[11:31] <melodie> dummy, probably, but come to a forum or irc #cyber-nux to ask
[11:31] <TJ-> g_: Thanks. That confirms what I thought (Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf")  so can you "pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" please?
[11:31] <Ben64> g_: we already have gui
[11:31] <MonkeyDust> g_  what's keeping you from doing it?
[11:32] <gogeta> we got decent ui out there just unity isn't one of them
[11:32] <g_> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251510/
[11:32] <itilious> anyone here familiar with setting up a test webserver on ubuntu?
[11:32] <dummy> melodie, ok is the channel on freenode ?
[11:32] <Ben64> gogeta: which is why i'm still on 10.04
[11:32] <yeats> !alis | dummy
[11:32] <g_> MonkeyDust: nothing actually, I guess I just need the motivation :) (dont know how to contribute often) channels etc.
[11:32] <gogeta> lxde xfce awesome etc
[11:32] <itilious> i've got it setup working via tasksel w/php/mysql/etc,, my issue is getting ftp to work correctly for joomla
[11:32] <Ben64> g_: could probably do "sudo apt-get install nvidia-common nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-current nvidia-settings" to install the driver
[11:32] <g_> gogeta: I'm on KDE..
[11:33] <fantaghir> itilious, consider access
[11:33] <gogeta> ode can be one
[11:33] <gogeta> kde
[11:33] <fantaghir> itilious, precisely said: access rights to files aslo
[11:33] <TJ-> g_: OK, let's lose that xorg.conf. "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia"   then log-out to cause the X server to restart, and log-in again ... that should allow the auto-detected modes to take effect
[11:34] <Ben64> TJ-: i thought the goal was to get nvidia working?
[11:34] <gogeta> its just gnome and Ubuntu lost there minds lol
[11:34] <MonkeyDust> g_  http://www.ubuntu.com/community/get-involved
[11:35] <itilious> fantaghir, is is sufficient to just set the entire www directory and subfiles/directories to 775?
[11:35] <itilious> with www-data being the owner?
[11:35] <g_> Ben64: no goal to make the right resolution available again - nvidia driver failed horribly :(
[11:35] <g_> TJ-:  reloggin
[11:36] <gogeta> gooogle needs to drop the dead chrome is and make a official andorod x86. that would make waves
[11:36] <TJ-> Ben64: one step at atime. "g_" reported that nvidia caused other problems. We're trying to get multi-monitors up to begin with
[11:36] <gogeta> chrome os not the chrome browser
[11:36] <rymate1234> hey
[11:36] <Ben64> but multi monitor works differently on nvidia driver, getting it to work on noveau doesn't help it on nvidia
[11:36] <rymate1234> don't suppose there's a way to make skype integrate with empathy
[11:37] <dummy> when i try to tip a message in #backtrack-linux it says: Cannot send to channel. What can i do??
[11:37] <g_> TJ-: it worked fine. Thanks.. I hope I'll be able to find these things on my own one day :)
[11:37] <dummy> not tip i mean send sorry
[11:37] <g_> TJ-:  any reason to attempt to install the nvidia driver? (if I dont plan to do any gaming or such..) (KDE)
[11:37] <TJ-> g_:  Now, do you want to get nvidia driver installed and working correctly, so you'll have full 3D acceleration?
[11:38] <g_> TJ-: I could try.
[11:38] <MonkeyDust> rymate1234  old post, maybe it helps http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/04/run-skype-as-a-daemon-and-manage-it-from-empathy-in-ubuntu-11-04

[11:39] <melodie> not OkropNick : what is that stupid configuration ?
[11:39] <TJ-> g_: If it gives you confidence, I have a VGN-FE41Z here I've been using 100% successfully with the nvidia drivers since 2007ish
[11:40] <Ben64> melodie: if you want to talk to yourself, I suggest doing so in a private message

[11:40] <MrM> Any HW gurus around? I'm trying to make sense of my "sensors" (lm_sensors) config... what is "nouveau-pci-0300" PCI adapter... what does it refer to?
[11:40] <melodie> thanks Ben64, this is the most irrelevant suggest I ever got on a chan. wouldn't you rather tell me where some guys knowing about blueprints can inform me ?
[11:40] <dummy> melodie, when send a message in the #backtrack-linux channel it says: Cannot send to channel. And i don't know why.
[11:41] <IdleOne> !register | dummy You need to register

[11:58] <drsa2> hi am new to ubuntu i was using ubuntu 10.10 since last 2 yrs , after uploading to 11.10 my hard disc got some bad sectors and i changed it after that some one recomended using an win 8 but was feeling bad of that OS i installed linuxmint but now i got some issues with linuxmint too i would like to go back to ubuntu which version i should select
[11:58] <g_> TJ-:  in case I go idle I'll be helping the missus , but all messages stay so dont hesitate :-)
[11:59] <drsa2> i would like to have unity destop
[11:59] <TJ-> g_: OK, I don't see any reason for problems with the nvidia driver. I would suggest though, that you consider using the nvidia 304.xx driver (currently in precise-proposed and in the x-swat/xorg/ PPA) because it now supports xrandr so you can use the system Display applet to configure multi-monitors at last! No more needing nvidia-x-settings for that
[11:59] <Ben64> g_: what have you tried since moving the xorg.conf?
[11:59] <drsa2> iuse 1215t
[11:59] <drsa2> asus
[11:59] <bekks> drsa2: Sorry, I didnt get your sentence without interpunctuation.

[12:01] <drsa2> i changed my hdd
[12:02] <ScottHarrison> tomaz, it's a good idea to specify that you need help with Windows when asking for support in an Ubuntu channel.
[12:02] <g_> TJ-: should I use the URL or should I just do apt-get nvidia-current or current-updates ?
[12:02] <bekks> drsa2: There is no reason to not use 64bit on 64bit hardware.
[12:03] <Ben64> g_: you add the ppa with the instructions there first
[12:03] <g_> Ben64: what is the PPA ?:)

[12:04] <TJ-> g_: On that PPA page you'll see "You can update your system with unsupported packages from this untrusted PPA by adding ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates to your system's Software Sources. (Read about installing) " ... that'll tell you how to use "apt-add-repository" to add the PPA to the system's packages list. Then, you can do "apt-get update && apt-get install nvidia-current" and it'll use the PPA packages
[12:04] <bekks> drsa2: Do you want to dualboot or something?
[12:05] <g_> TJ-: Ben64 great, I ll do that later and get back to you... any idea how to  tell ubuntu KDE is my only WM?
[12:05] <drupod> dr_willis, i bought the laptop with windows c.e installed i've succesfully installed android and now i want to install ubuntu
[12:05] <drsa2> no
[12:05] <TJ-> g_: The "Read about installing" link tells you to do "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates"
[12:05] <drsa2> i only use linux
[12:05] <bekks> drsa2: Then just install 12.04 and select "use entire harddisk".
[12:05] <dr_willis> drupod:  im suprised you were able to do that.
[12:06] <drsa2> no
[12:06] <bekks> drsa2: Why not?
[12:06] <drsa2> i need partitions in it
[12:06] <Ben64> g_: i'm still not sure what you mean by making it default
[12:06] <bekks> drsa2: Because...?
[12:06] <dr_willis> drupod:  find a arm server image/iso and go for it i guess. ;)
[12:06] <drsa2> because i lost all my data 10gb of books while updating from10.4 to 10.10
[12:06] <g_> Ben64: wait I ll log out to see what ll happen now
[12:06] <drsa2> so i would like to have a safe update too
[12:06] <bekks> drsa2: You have to have a backup of your data prior installing.
[12:07] <drupod> dr_willis, thanks
[12:07] <TJ-> drupod: It depends on which ARM core is in the device. The Ubuntu ARM builds require later versions than the Debian builds.
[12:07] <dr_willis> 'data worth keeping is data worth backing up'
[12:07] <drsa2> i i know but is it possible to partition and install
[12:07] <bekks> drsa2: Yes, it is. But create backup before.
[12:08] <drsa2> ya now i got a new disk, old one got some bad sectors
[12:08] <dr_willis> power failuer while resizeing partitions is not fun drsa2 . backup befor resizeing
[12:09] <drsa2> so can you tel how to do partition
[12:09] <TJ-> drupod: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM   and "Ubuntu targets the ARMv7 and above Application Processor family (Cortex A8, A9 and above). Currently the archive supports ARM EABI, with an expectation of minimum compliance with the ARMv7+VFP ISA. Where possible Ubuntu targets the Thumb2 instruction set. "
[12:09] <drsa2> before it was easy when using entr disc
[12:09] <drsa2> but now i like to give separate /home and other s
[12:10] <g_> TJ-: installed the PPA :)
[12:10] <blackshirt> drsa2, thats no problems...and maybe more better
[12:10] <dr_willis> drsa2:  the installer can resize. or use a gparted cd.   you will adnt to manually partition as needed to make a seperate /home/
[12:10] <drupod> TJ, thanks
[12:10] <bekks> drsa2: Then create a backup and create your desired layout.
[12:11] <dr_willis> drsa2:  this is to be a linux only box? how big a hard disk?
[12:11] <drsa2> ya but do i have a tutorial for that
[12:11] <drsa2> 500
[12:11] <asdfn> hi, I have a question. I use .Xresources file to make my xterm looks pretty, but I always have to write xrdb ~/.Xresource in terminal when I start system. What should I do to make .Xresource load by default?
[12:12] <drsa2> 500gb
[12:12] <dr_willis> drsa2:  id partion similer to this,  15gb for /, a few gb for swap, rest for /home
[12:12] <Hatori> drsa2, thats more than enough
[12:13] <drsa2>  ok
[12:13] <MonkeyDust> drsa2  my advice, keep free space for an additional partition
[12:14] <Redfronted> Hello ubuntu
[12:14] <Hatori> hello redfrontend
[12:15] <drsa2> so  shall i do like 15gb for /,  and 5gb for swap  and 100 gb for home balance free space , do i have to make swap as promary or logical
[12:15] <Redfronted> first time here and fell really great
[12:16] <Hatori> redfrontend, good luck :d
[12:16] <dr_willis> drsa2:  you can have 4 primaries. so you could do them all primary
[12:17] <dr_willis> drsa2:  either way wont matter much
[12:17] <romibi> Newb101: found it: Select area, Select -> Float (or Shift+CTRL+L), Move, Layer->Anchor Layer (or CTRL+H or Click outside of Selection)
[12:18] <romibi> I often don't use float but copy and paste
[12:18] <drsa2> when i intalled linux mint i have two p[artitions of 150GB, and i think both are in primary i am trying to maintain that
[12:19] <dr_willis> drsa2:   linux is not real picky about it. if i use  4 or less partitions  i tend to make them all primary
[12:19] <drag0nz> hey guys, i have a script im trying to run from terminal, when i do ./script it says "no such file or directory" .. anyone know how to fix that?
[12:19] <drsa2> okey
[12:20] <dr_willis> drag0nz:  check spelling? in the current dir.. is it executable.. is the first #! line right....
[12:20] <drsa2> so ex2/ex4 which one i have to use
[12:20] <MonkeyDust> drsa2  ext4
[12:20] <dr_willis> drsa2:  ext4 is the default normally
[12:20] <drsa2> ok
[12:21] <drsa2> so ext4 primary /
[12:21] <drsa2> with size
[12:21] <drag0nz> dr_willis, the spelling is correct, and its green colored and i  did chmod +x, still the same
[12:22] <drsa2> do i have to set space for /boot and all
[12:22] <romibi> nobody an idea to my shutdown problem? (Wrote about it 35mins before)
[12:22] <dr_willis> drag0nz:  firts line of the file is? you could pastebin it.. and whats ls -l say about it. and 'file ./thefile'
[12:23] <drupod> hello guys, how do i register my nick?
[12:23] <dr_willis> drsa2:  /boot/ is optional i rarely use it these days
[12:24] <diverdude> is the linux core optimized just as much for intel processors as mac and windows are?
[12:24] <MonkeyDust> drupod  Type « /msg nickserv register password_of_your_choice<EMAIL_ADDRESS>»
[12:25] <drupod> MonkeyDust, Thanks
[12:25] <drsa2> okey i was using linuxmint  last day when i removed pavcntrl , later i was able to login but no desktop was shown (a blank screen was there ) today i tryed to re instal mint again then it says grub boot partition not found
[12:26] <drag0nz> dr_willis, this is the script http://pastebin.com/GyM86ALv
[12:26] <ikonia> drsa2: take it to the mint support channel please.
[12:27] <drsa2> no i am not happy with it i would like to go with ubuntu
[12:27] <TJ-> drag0nz: That's not a shell-script; it's an ELF binary executable
[12:27] <drsa2> my question is will it make any problems after i install 12.04
[12:28] <dr_willis> drsa2:  will what make any problems?
[12:28] <drag0nz> TJ-, hmm how can i run this than? on windows or something?
[12:28] <dr_willis> drag0nz:  where did that binary come from?
[12:28] <TJ-> drag0nz: do "file <your-file-name>" - that will tell you what kind of file it is, tell us what it reports
[12:29] <drsa2> home and / are primary , swap is logical , /books /photos are already partitioned as primary
[12:29] <TJ-> drag0nz: Is this where it comes from? http://www.redsquirrel87.com/trpex.html
[12:30] <drag0nz> TJ-, dr_willis, yes, this is exactly where its from
[12:30] <bekks> drsa2: You cant have 4 primary partitions AND an extended partition, as you are stating.
[12:30] <dr_willis> drsa2:  you can have 4 primary MAX, if you want a logical then that will need to be in an extended.. which will take away one of the primaries
[12:30] <drag0nz> it supposed to extract images
[12:31] <dr_willis> 3 primaries, one extended (holding a lot of logicals)
[12:31] <drag0nz> TJ-, this is what "file" returns http://pastebin.com/XEctar9e
[12:32] <TJ-> drag0nz: I downloaded the ZIP, extracted it, changed to the directory "TRPEX" and did "./trpex" and it runs OK
[12:32] <webfox> Hey guys, how do I activate a screen saver at my Ubuntu?
[12:32] <drsa2> so is it possible to change primary to logical
[12:32] <drsa2> with out loosing data if goes okey i got back up
[12:32] <TJ-> drag0nz: Here's its output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251621/
[12:33] <dr_willis> drsa2:  easier to delete/remake
[12:33] <bekks> drsa2: Have your backup handy, and just create a new layout instead of messing around with trying to convert things.
[12:34] <Shambat> I have an openvpn tunnel that I would like to allow all traffic to and from, but it seems something is blocking the traffic, how can I allow all traffic to and from a certain interface?
[12:34] <drsa2> ya backup is in back home and am in my college getting it will take time and i would like to update without loosing data few books
[12:35] <drag0nz> TJ-, thats weird! this is the output i get: http://pastebin.com/PbFdnGMv
[12:35] <dr_willis> ubuntu one has 5 gb online storage for free...
[12:35] <drsa2> so would like to know weather it is possible
[12:35] <dr_willis> seen 32gb usb on sale for $20 laltly
[12:35] <dr_willis> lately ;)
[12:35] <TJ-> drag0nz: Do you have it extracted on a 'noexec' mounted file-system?
[12:35] <drag0nz> TJ-, i unziped the file using "unzip file.zip" , went to the directory and ran ./trpex and thats what it shows
[12:36] <drsa2> hmm i shall try installintg
[12:36] <dr_willis> drag0nz:  32bit or 64bit os?
[12:36] <bekks> drag0nz: You are on NTFS, which does not support POSIX permissions. If you want to run it, copy it over to your linux filesystem.
[12:36] <drag0nz> dr_willis, 64bit
[12:37] <diverdude> is the linux core optimized just as much for intel processors as mac and windows are?
[12:37] <drag0nz> bekks, what do you mean? im on my ubuntu desktop
[12:37] <TJ-> drag0nz: show us "ls -altr ~/Documents/psm/TRPEX" please
[12:37] <dr_willis> drag0nz:  chmoding a file on ntfs/vfat does not change anytthing
[12:37] <bekks> drag0nz: then run ls -lha to see wether the file actually exists with that name.
[12:37] <dr_willis> TJ-:  you are on 64bit also?
[12:38] <TJ-> dr_willis: I'm on a 64-bit installation; the trpex is ELF is 32-bit - it runs fine
[12:38] <drag0nz> TJ-, bekks, this is the output http://pastebin.com/zZQAcWQA
[12:38] <dr_willis> isent there some ia64 compatability libs needded for that?
[12:39] <ikonia> dr_willis: careful ia64 is itanium
[12:39] <TJ-> dr_willis: No. That's what multi-lib is for
[12:39] <dr_willis> so does he have the multilib stuff ? ;)
[12:39] <TJ-> drag0nz: Show me also "mount | grep home" please
[12:39] <TJ-> dr_willis: It's installed by default
[12:39] <dr_willis> or is he just doing thr name/path wrong.
[12:40] <dr_willis> hmm. what release was he using?
[12:40] <TJ-> dr_willis: Looks like a 'noexec' issue to me with the error msg from bash
[12:40] <drag0nz> TJ-, http://pastebin.com/X3RgC8Hf
[12:41] <TJ-> Drag0nir: OK, thanks. So your /home/ is part of the root file-system
[12:41] <drag0nz> maybe i need the ia32-libs?
[12:42] <dr_willis> drag0nz:  you are on 12.04 ?
[12:42] <TJ-> drag0nz: what Ubuntu release is it? "lsb_release -d"
[12:42] <tyler_d> what kernel should I be using for an intel i5?
[12:43] <TJ-> tyler_d: amd64 or i386 (the former for 64-bit and addressing more than 4GB or RAM)
[12:43] <drag0nz> yo it worked!
[12:43] <tyler_d> very good, ty TJ- one last question, though it's not official, do you know where I might find the 64 bit of kernel 3.4+
[12:43] <drag0nz> it was the ia32 libs
[12:43] <drag0nz> ran after installing them
[12:43] <drag0nz> good call dr_willis
[12:44] <drag0nz> and its 12.01.1 LTS :)
[12:44] <TJ-> drag0nz: Hmmm; that's supposed to be installed by default
[12:44] <STMelon> 12.04.1 :P
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> drag0nz  12.04.1
[12:44] <drag0nz> i guess it wasnt.. im installing it on my server as well to see what happens
[12:45] <webfox> Hey guys, how do I activate a screen saver at my Ubuntu?
[12:45] <dr_willis> webfox:  you mean what hotkey? or what exactlty
[12:45] <TJ-> drag0nz: If you hit that kind of issue in future, the one thing we didn't do that would have helped would have been "ldd trpex" which would reveal missing libraries
[12:45] <timer_> Hi, can someone help me with awesome? I doesn't get it work. :(
[12:46] <webfox> dr_willis, well I cannot find where is it located for settings.

[12:50] <TJ-> blz: it's in the package "libdc1394-22"
[12:51] <blz> TJ-, yes, but I'm asking where the file is located
[12:51] <blz> TJ-, as in libdc1394.so.22

[12:52] <drupod> hello guys, how can i record radio streaming  with ubuntu
[12:52] <timer_> ok, I also tried to made a new gnome-session with the tutorial from ubuntuusers.de but there is no /usr/share/xsession/.desktop file
[12:53] <dr_willis> qwitwa:  if its not a gtk1/2/3 app it may ignore most theme settings
[12:53] <qwitwa> I think it's a gtk2 app.
[12:53] <TJ-> drupod: investigate the Pulseaudio loopback interface. http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Modules#module-loopback
[12:53] <qwitwa> When I run it normally it follows my gtk2 theme, Bluebird.
[12:53] <dr_willis> drupod: depends on where its streaming from. ive used 'streamtuner'
[12:54] <RWOverdijk> I have a very specific problem. Also, I think kind of weird... I've installed ubuntu on my imac (new partition), after that I've created a new partition and installed windows. Now it SHOULD look like this: https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSN3sPqn-FOCDIT1jrQv8fVlHt59x3SD9NAbPeFjwFWKJaDftf4 But in stead, I'm not seeing linux anymore... Did windows do that? How do I get it back?
[12:54] <drupod> thanks guys

[12:54] <tuxatcom> how can i expand tar.gz files in the terminal ? (I tried tar -x) But it didn't work.
[12:54] <dr_willis> qwitwa:  you do use 'gksudo synaptic' not 'sudo synaptic'?
[12:55] <qwitwa> Nope. That's probably my n00b mistake.
[12:55] <TJ-> tuxatcom: "tar -xzf <file.tar.gz>"
[12:55] <drupod> dr_willis, i want to record internet radio
[12:55] <qwitwa> Tried it, but still ugly.

[12:55] <dr_willis> drupod:  'internet radio' can be done in a dozen ways...
[12:56] <dr_willis> drupod:  tunapie/streamtuner is a radio stream finder/recorders
[12:56] <RWOverdijk> I found this "If you have any issues, like not having the linux partition shown anymore, reinstall grub on your linux partition with a live-CD.". Where do I find this "reinstall grub" thing on the live cd?
[12:56] <MonkeyDust> drupod  i did it with guayadeque

[12:57] <SpindizZzy> any ideas ?
[12:57] <dr_willis> RWOverdijk:  the 'boot-repair' tool is installable and fixes most issues.  its mentioned on the following url
[12:57] <dr_willis> !fixgrub
[12:58] <RWOverdijk> Thanks for your diagnosis dr_willis
[12:59] <dr_willis> i keep hopeing thta boot-repair tool will get included by default someday
[12:59] <timer_> on tutorial start awesome with the command: "killall campiz && awesome&" this doesn't work for me
[13:00] <dr_willis> timer_:  its 'compiz'
[13:00] <RWOverdijk> dr_willis: I thought it would just be a "repair ubuntu" alongsides "install" and "try"
[13:00] <dr_willis> timer_:  and you did see if there was a 'awsome' entry on the login screen menus?
[13:00] <timer_> dr_willis: ok, sorry,

[13:01] <ace> hello, is it possible to do something to make 'ps' displaying all the process (not only the current user ones)?
[13:01] <dr_willis> timer_:  you do have some idea how 'awsome' works?  its not for the normal beginner.
[13:01] <dr_willis> timer_:  the lightdm login screen when you first login...
[13:01] <bekks> ace: sudo ps :)
[13:02] <qwitwa> timer_: When you start up your computer, do you have to log in first, or do you just go straight to the desktop?

[13:02] <ace> no

[13:02] <STMelon> ps aux displays user and root processes
[13:02] <bekks> ace: ps -aux

[13:05] <bekks> ace: as a user, it does too. According to the man page: Select all processes except both session leaders (see getsid(2)) and processes not associated with a terminal
[13:05] <bekks> ace: for displaying the latter ones, use -A instead of -a

[13:08] <azm> hi, I would like to use ubntu live cd but when booting it jumps straight to grub..
[13:08] <dr_willis> azm:  you mean the grub of the installed system?
[13:08] <MonkeyDust> azm  change the boot sequensce in your bios
[13:08] <azm> nope, I dont have anz linux installed
[13:08] <azm> the boot sequence is right..
[13:09] <dr_willis> then we wonder whay you mean by 'grub'
[13:09] <MonkeyDust> azm  the cd may be corrupt, did it work before?
[13:09] <azm> well it looks like grub
[13:09] <azm> no its not corrupt, checked already
[13:09] <azm> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[13:09] <dr_willis> what does it look/like/say exactly
[13:09] <mateus> alguem???
[13:10] <azm> the grub-like table just says install ubuntu/check CD

[13:11] <azm> the welcome screen does not show at all
[13:11] <TJ-> azm: The liveISO images use syslinux not grub as the boot-loader. You can press F6 for advanced options and manually type additions to the kernel command line at the bottom of the screen *after* dismissing the F6 menu options using the Escape key
[13:12] <azm> is this even live is

[13:12] <TJ-> azm: That's the alternate ISO image - not live.
[13:13] <azm> oh god
[13:13] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:13] <azm> I should have used ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent
[13:13] <ddtge> i need some help
[13:13] <azm> TJ what alternate means please ?
[13:13] <dfdsgg> ciao
[13:13] <TJ-> !alternate | azm
[13:14] <dfdsgg> list!
[13:14] <qwitwa> From before: Not sure if this is really the channel for it, but I'm trying to theme synaptic package manager when I open it with sudo. I've tried symlinking my home .themes, .icons, .fonts directories to /root/.themes etc, but when I open it it's still ugly.
[13:14] <qwitwa> gksudo makes no difference.
[13:14] <ddtge> i need some help
[13:14] <ddtge> someone know how to setup an IR usb stick?
[13:14] <dfdsgg> !list
[13:14] <ddtge> it's recognize in dmseg as "rc-dib0700-rc5"
[13:15] <azm> TJ-, can I somehow hack into live session to run gparted ?
[13:16] <MonkeyDust> qwitwa  synaptic is meant to be efficient and practical, not to be beautiful, so i guess you cannot theme it
[13:16] <qwitwa> It follows my gtk2 theme without sudo.
[13:17] <azm> why the installation process has such crappy partitioning options ?
[13:17] <TJ-> azm: gparted is installed for use in the LiveISO sessions
[13:18] <azm> TJ-, yea, so I guess the alternate has no X support at all
[13:18] <bekks> azm: correct.
[13:18] <Erealz> hey everyone
[13:19] <Erealz> im tooking to host my own torrent server on my server but i need one with out a gui frontend
[13:19] <Erealz> torrent flux is dead project and im not sure what else is out there/
[13:19] <MonkeyDust> Erealz  ubuntu server has no GUI by default
[13:19] <Erealz> i know im sorry
[13:19] <TJ-> Erealz: I have Transmission installed on my server; it has a web front-end for managing it
[13:20] <Erealz> tj- but how can you configure it with out useing a gui?
[13:20] <Erealz> i know that those

[13:21] <Erealz> i what i mean is somthing that will have a webgui but somthing i can configure with out have xwindows  installed
[13:22] <Erealz> torrent flux again come to mind but the project is dead from i can tell.
[13:22] <TJ-> Erealz: I just did "sudo apt-get install transmission-cli" which also installs 'transmission-common' and then access it as "http://$HOSTNAME:9091/transmission/web/"

[13:25] <tech936> MokeyDust if you read my message you would know im asking everyone if they fill the criteria to message me
[13:25] <bazhang> tech936, this is not the place for that
[13:26] <MonkeyDust> tech936  maybe someone here knows and you don't have to wait longer than needed
[13:27] <tech936> well how about i ask again Im looking for people to work along side me so insted of sounding smug why not read the message and take it in before typing

[13:31] <orated> Hi! For VNC, I usually use ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 user@IP and then start VNC server on the other end. Now, is it possible to try same on second system with forwarding to something like localhost:1 and with new instance of viewer?
[13:32] <RWOverdijk> dr_willis: I'm back. That did not work for me. Instead, I now have the regular load, which includes the grub one, which in itself would be fine (if I could get into ubuntu) but it starts ubuntu, with the logo and the dots under it, and as soon as the first dot lights up my screen goes to black.
[13:33] <RWOverdijk> dr_willis: It told me to paste this if it failed: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251710/

[13:37] <bazhang> tyrog, yes
[13:38] <bazhang> dfadeur, a hardware issue?

[13:42] <bazhang> dfadeur, sounds like a hardware issue
[13:44] <dfadeur> bazhang i think so, it's a fresco chipset, do you know about this
[13:44] <bazhang> dfadeur, try in ##hardware

[13:53] <TJ-> dfadeur_: Good news. the USB3 device is being handled by the xhci_hcd driver
[13:54] <dfadeur_> and what's the bad news?
[13:55] <TJ-> dfadeur_: It is possible that some ports on the PC are not connected to the USB3 controller. Do you know if the port you're using has been handled by the USB3 controller (for example, using Windows) ?

[13:56] <DarkStar1> How can I kill a runaway process? ( by runaway I mean it's pid keeps changing)
[13:56] <dfadeur_> TJ_:yes this port runs with seven
[13:56] <zykotick9> DarkStar1: does the process name stay the same?  if so "killall foo" where foo is the process name.
[13:57] <DarkStar1> zykotick9: yeah but killall doesn't do the job
[13:57] <TJ-> dfadeur_: OK... that's alos good! It means we're not chasing an impossible function :) ... Can you pastebin for me the log-file? You can use "tail -n 1000 /var/log/kern.log | pastebinit"  to let me see the last 1000 lines from the log-file.
[13:58] <jrib> DarkStar1: why do you have such a process?
[13:58] <yekoms> DarkStar1, kill the parent.
[13:58] <zykotick9> DarkStar1: what happens?
[13:58] <yekoms> jrib, hes trying to kill a service process i bet
[13:58] <yekoms> when they are killed, they reload automaticly.
[13:58] <DarkStar1> jrib: don't know
[13:58] <DarkStar1> but I can't kill it
[13:58] <jrib> DarkStar1: well what is it that you're trying to kill exactly?
[13:58] <yekoms> what is the process called?
[13:58] <MonkeyDust> DarkStar1  start from the beginning, what were you doing and what went wrong
[13:59] <tyler_d> I'm trying to find the source for kernel 3.6.0-030600rc5-generic as my wireless nor nvidia drivers function after upgrading.
[14:00] <dfadeur_> TJ_:http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251784/
[14:00] <TJ-> dfadeur_: I think you missed the option "-n 1000" from 'tail'. There's only 4 lines of output
[14:01] <yekoms> tyler_d, did you try down grading the kernel?
[14:01] <DarkStar1> jrib: the telnet client
[14:01] <tyler_d> yekoms: that does work however does not achieve the desired kernel upgrade
[14:01] <yekoms> i wouldnt use a RC kernel.
[14:02] <DarkStar1> each time I grep the pid has changed
[14:02] <dfadeur_> TJ_: no only 4 lines in this one
[14:02] <TJ-> tyler_d: The headers you need for building the nvidia DKMS packages, are in the Ubuntu mainline Kernel PPA
[14:02] <yekoms> DarkStar1, ps aux|grep telnet | pastebinit
[14:03] <TJ-> dfadeur_: really? did logrotate just changeover then? In that case, can you do ""tail -n 1000 /var/log/kern.log.1 | pastebinit"
[14:03] <tyler_d> TJ-: once again tyvm sir.
[14:03] <dfadeur_> TJ_: right http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251794/

[14:05] <yekoms> :)
[14:05] <yekoms> pgrep telnet, should return nothing.

[14:13] <dfadeur_> TJ_: yes i have 2 usb 2.0 ports and 1 usb 3.0
[14:16] <TJ-> dfadeur_: OK, the last part of the log-file puzzle I need, is to see the contents of "/var/log/kern.log" after you've plugged in the USB3 device to the USB3 port. If the device is currently connected, disconnect it. Then reconnect it. The do "pastebinit /var/log/kern.log"

[14:26] <Monika2> Hello plz tell me what is ubuntu????????????
[14:27] <ikonia> an linux distribution, read ubuntu.com
[14:29] <TJ-> dfadeur_: This may not apply to your laptop, but I'm finding references for some motherboards that indicate that the motherboard BIOS can configure the USB ports for USB2 or USB3. Do you know if the BIOS on that laptop has that functionality? If it does, it is worth checking if changing the setting will help.
[14:30] <dfadeur_> TJ_: No possibility to change i think. Rebooting now and checking, i'll be back ;-)
[14:30] <TJ-> dfadeur_: OK

[14:37] <dfadeur> TJ_: no, still using ehci
[14:38] <TJ-> dfadeur: I have to go make lunch --- brain-food might help. The only thing I can think of right now, is try using all the other ports on the laptop... if non provide USB3 we know there's a driver bug and can focus on that

[14:41] <bizhanMona> Hi I am trying to understand for ubuntu 12.04 secure boot, what is the relationship between the grub , Intel UEFI and ubuntu framework to support secure boot? Thx
[14:41] <ikonia> bizhanMona: no-one knows yet, as there is no secure boot
[14:41] <RWOverdijk> I've figured out which driver I need for my imac by installing it on windows. Now, back on ubuntu, I'm trying to figure out how to install it. It's this one: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx. Can I install drivers in ubuntu using the installer?
[14:42] <ikonia> RWOverdijk: that's a windows driver
[14:42] <RWOverdijk> ikonia: I know. That's why I'm asking.
[14:42] <g_> TJ-: installed the PPA :) what should I do now
[14:43] <sayers> I saw yesterday someone with Mac(donalds) was trying to install linux on his beast but couldn't boot the distributions
[14:43] <ikonia> RWOverdijk: you can't use the windows driver
[14:43] <RWOverdijk> ikonia: Before, it was quite difficult to help me because I had no idea what I needed. Now I know I need that specific driver, and I'm asking what to do next.
[14:43] <ikonia> sayers: that's nothing to do with this channel
[14:43] <ikonia> RWOverdijk: you don't need that specific driver, as that's for windows
[14:44] <sayers> see RW0verdijk, he asked for the installation info
[14:44] <TJ-> bizhanMona: Have you seen http://blog.canonical.com/2012/09/20/quetzal-is-taking-flight-update-on-ubuntu-secure-boot-plans/
[14:44] <bizhanMona> ikonia: in Intel Development Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, Ubuntu representative (and Fedora) they announce UEFI secure boot framework.
[14:44] <ikonia> bizhanMona: annouced
[14:44] <ikonia> that's it
[14:45] <RWOverdijk> ikonia: Okay fine, I'll rephrase then. I've found a driver that works for me on windows. It's the one I just linked to. Now I'm hoping that you, based on that driver, can point me to one that will work on ubuntu.
[14:45] <prath> is there someone with lxc skills, i have the problem that the route defined in /etc/network/interfaces up route add default gw ip and other routes not set on startup inside the lxc container, which are ubuntu 12.04
[14:45] <quixotedon> hi, ffmpeg is no longer supported?
[14:45] <quixotedon> i want to compress audio file, is there another application of use?
[14:45] <Calinou> bizhanMona: you cannot buy ubuntu, sorry
[14:45] <sayers> ikonia: do you see the specific question asked by RW0verdijk now ?
[14:46] <BluesKaj> quixotedon, install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:46] <bizhanMona> Calinou: sorry not sure what you mean?
[14:47] <quixotedon> BluesKaj: thanks!! is this for prolonging the use of ffmpeg?
[14:48] <BluesKaj> ffmpeg is part of the package , quixotedon , at least I'm quite sure it still is
[14:48] <BluesKaj> quixotedon, if not just install ffmpeg
[14:49] <quixotedon> BluesKaj: i have the winffmpeg installed but somehow it said: the application is predecated.. :(
[14:49] <theadmin> quixotedon: Yes, FFmpeg is deprecated, you should use avconv instead
[14:49] <sayers> Goodbye guys
[14:50] <theadmin> quixotedon: However if you can't (for instance you're using winff), then just keep using ffmpeg for now
[14:50] <quixotedon> hmm, let me try first and see what happens next, thanks theadmin & BluesKaj
[14:50] <theadmin> quixotedon: winff works fine here
[14:51] <quixotedon> anybody knows a good audio compress application??
[14:51] <quixotedon> theadmin: really?
[14:52] <BluesKaj> yup here as well , haven't tried the new avconv since ffmpeg still works for me
[14:52] <theadmin> quixotedon: Yeah, I just converted a video, worked fine
[14:52] <funky1> hi all :)
[14:53] <funky1> i run ubuntu 12.04 64 bit, i want an application to run at start up, but i want the desktop to load, then wait 5 mins and then to run the startup command, how can i achieve that?
[14:53] <theadmin> funky1: Write a script with: sleep 5m && exec your_command
[14:53] <quixotedon> theadmin: it's not working here
[14:53] <RWOverdijk> funky1: If you want timed processes, perhaps write a script?
[14:53] <theadmin> quixotedon: Oh, odd, do you have libavcodec-extra-53 installed?
[14:54] <funky1> ah yeah
[14:54] <funky1> didn't think of that, will give it a go, thanks :)
[14:55] <RWOverdijk> Hum... Did I format my question wrong again?
[14:56] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: I didn't see your question

[14:56] <quixotedon> theadmin: let me checkk first

[14:57] <Jacruth> I have a 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03), and I listen sound from the headphone and from the speakers. How could I fix it, in order to listen sound only from the headphones when they are pluged?
[14:57] <xsiic> Im having problems with x-server
[14:58] <tyler_d> I would like to get my 'fn' key on my apple alu bluetooth keyboard working, keys recorded in xev come in 2 times... (ie. press left and it shows up twice) and the 'fn' key shows no input
[14:58] <murowany_> :)
[14:58] <RWOverdijk> I've found a driver that works for me on windows (http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx). Based on that driver, does any know what I can do to make it so that it will work on ubuntu? (problem with imac, 2 years old. i5 processor).
[14:58] <xsiic> Who would be able to help me fix x-server?
[14:58] <theadmin> xsiic: Be more specific, what is your problem?
[14:58] <BluesKaj> RWOverdijk, you need a driver for what hardware ?
[14:59] <TJ-> dfadeur: I've done some reading up on the kernel mailing list. That suggests that some systems have "vendor specific port-switching methods". I read that to mean that unless a platform-specific software switch is used, the EHCI controller will retain ownership of ports. It wouldn't surprise me if the Windows drivers for the laptop 'know' how to do that, but the info hasn't been released to open-source developers. This is speculation though, in the absence of clues on
[14:59] <TJ-> your laptop
[14:59] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: Hm... AMD does provide Linux drivers. The official AMD driver is in the repos ("sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle"), but whether it will work for you or not is out of my knowledge.
[14:59] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Added more info to the question, also. mounting to self btw? I don't getit, I just used / :p
[14:59] <RWOverdijk> BluesKaj: video, on my imac
[14:59] <xsiic> I have a Lenovo Y570 and when I reset xorg.conf using 'nvidia-xconfig', my resolution went down to 640x480 (normally 1366x768) and now I can't get it back.
[14:59] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: Yeah, I was silly and didn't understand the concept of mountpoints
[15:00] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: That's not the one that ubuntu suggests right after installation?
[15:00] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: Uhm... It could be, if you mean the one suggested by the Hardware Drivers tool, then yes
[15:00] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Me neither. I have no idea what I did. I just know that I use cd / a lot so I just went with that one :p
[15:01] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Yeah I tried those... there are two drivers there, one of which is causing me problems.
[15:01] <BluesKaj> RWOverdijk, ok , which graphics card ?
[15:01] <RWOverdijk> BluesKaj: I think theadmin already helped me out by pointing out this one "sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle"
[15:01] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: If it's the "post-release upgrades", then don't install those, they never work
[15:01] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: Not for me anyway
[15:01] <xsiic> I have a Lenovo Y570 and when I reset xorg.conf using 'nvidia-xconfig', my resolution went down to 640x480 (normally 1366x768) and now I can't get it back.
[15:01] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Ah, yes it was that one. The other one doesn't help much, either. I'll try again, brb :p
[15:02] <Calinou> xsiic: the proprietary driver messed up, install the open source one
[15:02] <Calinou> apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[15:02] <Calinou> (with sudo)
[15:02] <BluesKaj> RWOverdijk, if you ran the command for ther fglrx driver then you have to reboot to finish the install
[15:02] <theadmin> xsiic: Well, removing xorg.conf ("sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf") will go back to the default config
[15:03] <xsiic> Alright, thanks Calinou and theadmin.
[15:03] <TJ-> xsiic: That means the /etc/X11/xorg.conf contains limiting settings. See 'theadmin' suggestion - that'll return to auto-probing
[15:03] <RWOverdijk> BluesKaj: Yeah I figured.. Thanks for confirming :) I'll reboot.
[15:03] <tyler_d> anyone know how to make pommed work with a non-apple machine
[15:04] <xsiic> it says i cant remove it because it doesnt exist
[15:04] <theadmin> xsiic: Sure you typed it right? The X is uppercase and stuff (just paste my command in)
[15:04] <xsiic> ok, didnt know it needed to be case sensitive
[15:05] <theadmin> xsiic: That's Linux for you, it's case-sensetive
[15:05] <g_> TJ-:  you there ? :)
[15:05] <TJ-> g_: I am
[15:05] <g_> TJ-:  I was on the point of installing the latest latest nvidia driver so was wondering what was the best practice ...
[15:06] <quixotedon> theadmin: libavcodec-extra-53 is not installed yet, installing in progress
[15:06] <theadmin> quixotedon: Good, that should fix your winff problems
[15:06] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: I... It works?
[15:06] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: ?
[15:06] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Even unity is fast now.
[15:06] <quixotedon> thanks a lot theadmin
[15:07] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: You can do sort of a check by running a 3D game or something lol
[15:07] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: I'm surprised. I did the exact same thing yesterday. Only difference was that I installed gnome3, and wasn't using unity.
[15:07] <ThinkT510> !cookie | theadmin
[15:07] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Any suggestions for a game I could quickly install?
[15:07] <TJ-> g_: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" ... that'll cause the DKMS to build the kernel module. Then restart and it should be in use.
[15:07] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: I don't really do gaming much these days so I dunno, sorry
[15:07] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: tuxracer :)
[15:08] <g_> TJ-:  I dont need the other packages? (settings config etc)
[15:08] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: No items match in software center :p
[15:08] <dr_willis> RWOverdijk:  if you bought any of the humble bundles - a lot of those are ported to linux
[15:08] <TJ-> g_: no, that will pull in all the required packages
[15:08] <actionParsnip> !info extremetuxracer
[15:08] <g_> TJ-:  cool, let's see if that'll work this time:)
[15:09] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: make sure you have universe repo enabled
[15:09] <dfadeur> TJ_: i think you mean it's dead for my case
[15:09] <g_> TJ-:  will loging out and login in again be enough for it to be active? or do I need a system reboot
[15:09] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Found it.
[15:09] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bd/Tuxracer.png/781px-Tuxracer.png
[15:09] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I copy pasted no spaces and no extreme :p
[15:09] <RWOverdijk> dr_willis: I was going to. It's for charity. But first I want a stable system
[15:09] <TJ-> g_: once it has finished, check the installed version using "apt-cache policy nvidia-current". No, log-out isn't usually sufficient, because the nouveau kernel module will be in place.
[15:10] <g_> TJ-:    Installed: 304.51-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1
[15:10] <xsiic> theadmin: It worked, thanks!
[15:11] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip, theadmin: game works like a charm.
[15:11] <theadmin> !yay | xsiic, RWOverdijk
[15:11] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: great game :D
[15:11] <RWOverdijk> haha
[15:11] <RWOverdijk> yes
[15:11] <TJ-> g_: That's the one :)
[15:11] <RWOverdijk> I'll try gnome3 again. If it once again uses 100% cpu I know it's not the driver...
[15:11] <Bennn> Anyone want to look at this crash report? Muon Software Center crashes right after I open it, or as it open. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2064628
[15:11] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: if you like counterstrike, grab urbanterror from playdeb :)
[15:11] <xsiic> Now does anyone here have any experience with Bumblebee?
[15:11] <g_> TJ-:  I reboot now.. let's see. I am afraid my hdmi monitor wont work etc :(
[15:11] <TJ-> g_: have faith :D
[15:12] <theadmin> xsiic: Sort of, what's the actual question?
[15:12] <theadmin> Oh, wait, bumblebee... I'm thinking bitlbee
[15:12] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I've never played a lot of games. But counterstrike videos do look cool. I might install it.
[15:12] <OerHeks> xsiic, there is a #bumblebee channel here on #freenode, those guys are up2date
[15:12] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Don't slap me but, what's playdeb?
[15:12] <xsiic> OerHeks: Alright, thanks for letting me know.
[15:12] <dfadeur> TJ_: i think you mean it's dead for my case
[15:12] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Thank you for your quick, helpful response. You're awesome! :p
[15:12] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: its a 3rd party source of packages for some great games
[15:13] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: playdeb.net, found it. Looks cool
[15:13] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: *le blush*
[15:14] <RWOverdijk> The level of support offered by theadmin is TOO DAMN HIGH
[15:14] <TJ-> dfadeur: No, that info helps us understand what is going on, and why in some cases the ports don't seem to be working as we expect. From what I can tell, in summary, the USB controllers have a Port Routing Mask register, or should have, and the USB2 and USB2 PRMs should be set to allow the USB3 controller to handle some ports. My guess right now is, that isn't happening
[15:14] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: It's common here, people help people
[15:14] <RWOverdijk> See what I did there, I countered your "le" with "too damn high" guy. :p
[15:14] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: Yesterday people were mainly busy being mad at eachother.
[15:14] <g_> TJ-:  no 2nd monitor, bad primary monitor resolution :( where do I start?
[15:14] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: you can add the PPA by installing: http://archive.getdeb.net/install_deb/playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb
[15:15] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: you can then use the links on the playdeb site to install apps easily
[15:15] <theadmin> RWOverdijk: Hm, that's kinda against rules here
[15:15] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: The Penumbra series is very worth the cash, as are the humble bundles :)
[15:15] <xsiic> Also, I normally have a second monitor attached through HDMI to my laptop and then I use it as my main monitor.  Are there any steps I'd have to take to get that to work?
[15:16] <RWOverdijk> theadmin: I figured. Good to see that it was just a bad first impression :)
[15:16] <TJ-> g_: OK, in the Ubuntu dashboard, type "nvidia" and you should see "Nvidia X Settings". Launch that.
[15:16] <aguadito> any reason why Firefox would constantly crash/slow down on ubuntu?
[15:16] <g_> TJ-:  did it, message: You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[15:16] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I also pay for apps on my tablet. It;s not a lot of money, and it helps out people that deserve it. So I'm already sold :)
[15:16] <TJ-> g_: urghh!
[15:17] <ThinkT510> aguadito: flash or addons can be usual culprits
[15:17] <aguadito> firefox has just sort of randomly started going "dim" and crashing
[15:17] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: devs gotta eat. I love the apps for 60p etc, great value :)
[15:17] <TJ-> g_: OK, can you, from a terminal, do "pastebinit /var/log/dmesg"   and then "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" and tell me the URLs please?
[15:17] <g_> TJ-: g@G-PLUS:~$ apt-cache policy nvidia-current nvidia-current:Installed: 304.51-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1
[15:17] <actionParsnip> aguadito: firefox chews ram like nobody elses business
[15:17] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Exactly. though I can't find counterstrike.
[15:18] <g_> TJ-:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251948/
[15:18] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: did you install the deb I linked?
[15:18] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: yes.
[15:18] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install urbanterror
[15:18] <g_> TJ-:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251949/ (the Xorg.0.log)
[15:19] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: working. what's urbanterror?
[15:19] <quixotedon> theadmin: it works finally,,  many thanks
[15:19] <actionParsnip> aguadito: is it when you use flash things?
[15:19] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=urban%20terror
[15:20] <TJ-> g_: Xorg.0.log shows "(EE) NVIDIA: Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module." and dmesg confirms it wasn't loaded, so we need to check that out first
[15:20] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: its based on the unreal engine so you can do wall jumpng
[15:20] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: It reminds me of assaultcube just less realistic
[15:20] <RWOverdijk> ah there you go.. haha
[15:21] <g_> TJ-:  ok! I'm all ears:) (eyes)
[15:21] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: yeah the idea is less realistic, more fun
[15:22] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Downloading :3
[15:22] <RWOverdijk> Am I the only one who loves gnome 3 more than unity by the way?
[15:22] <TJ-> g_: First, let's make sure the kernel module was built by DKMS. "ls -ltr /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/dkms/"
[15:23] <g_> TJ-:  ls: cannot access /lib/modules/3.2.0-29-generic/updates/dkms/: No such file or directory
[15:23] <aguadito> actionParsnip,  i'm trying to reproduce it now
[15:24] <TJ-> g_: ho-hum! OK ... I want you to try forcing a reinstallation of the nvidia-current package, and copy the output from the terminal to a pastebin when it's done. "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-current"
[15:24] <blz> I have a pair of USB speakers that I want to connect to an ubuntu installation without the Sound Settings menu (XBMCBuntu).  Normally I would just select these speakers as output in the sound settings menu, (in the "play sound through" box) -- how can I do something equivalent at the command line?
[15:25] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: unity is a shell for Gnome3, so by using Unity you  also are running Gnome3
[15:26] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I don't really believe that o,0 If that were true, than why do I have to install gnome3 individually? Or is that just some other shell?
[15:26] <g_> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251975/
[15:26] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: you probably installed Gnome shell, or gnome panel
[15:26] <actionParsnip> !unity | RWOverdijk
[15:26] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: ^
[15:27] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I think I meant the shell than.  "Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed."
[15:27] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: its still gnome underneat
[15:27] <TJ-> g_: what does "dpkg-query -l 'linux*' report ?
[15:28] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Okay. I'll rephrase :) Am I the only one that likes the gnome3 shell better than the unity shell? (Or is that still wrong terminology?)
[15:28] <g_> TJ-:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251980/
[15:28] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: I'm sure a tonne of folks prefer Gnome Shell :)
[15:29] <RWOverdijk> I think unity is just too young
[15:29] <TJ-> g_: let's install the headers. "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.2.0-29-generic"
[15:29] <Stars> good morning folks
[15:29] <blz> RWOverdijk, isn't gnome-shell younger than unity?
[15:30] <RWOverdijk> blz: I have no idea actually. I've known gnome for a while, and only heard of unity about a year ago
[15:30] <tyler_d> I'm trying to add a custom keymap for delete, what is the command?
[15:30] <g_> TJ-:  maybe all this because I installed UBUNTU Server version and not desktop :(
[15:30] <blz> RWOverdijk, gnome != gnome-shell, though.  Both unity and gnome-shell rely on gnome3, I believe
[15:30] <yekoms> anyone good with sudo? on 8.04: username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/vzctl, it'll work fine without a password, but right after i can do sudo id and it dont prompt for a passwd but just exec's it
[15:30] <blz> I think you're talking about gnome-classic
[15:30] <tyler_d> ie. <ctrl><delete> or such
[15:30] <Stars> is there a free or buildin automated ftp client on 12.4?
[15:30] <blz> (I admit it's somewhat confusing)
[15:30] <TJ-> g_: Usually the headers are installed when the standard kernel packages are installed... never mind, we can fix it, we have the technology!
[15:31] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: That's very interesting by the way. Nowhere does it say that gnome3 is a shell. It just says "install gnome3" in several articles. Thanks for the information :)
[15:31] <g_> TJ-: haha :) I know, everything can be fixed in *nix. > Headers installed.
[15:31] <tyler_d> Stars: filezilla
[15:31] <yekoms> if people dont use the kernel dep's they wont get em.
[15:31] <TJ-> g_: I noticed you have the .31 kernel and headers installed, but are currently using the .29 version
[15:31] <tyler_d> Stars: `sudo apt-get install filezilla`
[15:31] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: gnome3 is a desktop, the gnoe shell is the shell that runs on top :)
[15:31] <blz> RWOverdijk, if you like the old-style gnome interface, you should be able to install gnome-classic from the repos
[15:31] <RWOverdijk> blz: Yeah, like I just told actionParsnip, it's confusing when you have titles like "Installing Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin)"
[15:31] <g_> TJ-:  I installed .29 :)
[15:31] <ThinkT510> yekoms: 8.04 is only supported on servers (and not for much longer), you should consider upgrading
[15:32] <blz> RWOverdijk, It's a nomenclature nightmare =/
[15:32] <Stars> tyler_d, will filezilla do automated schedule time?
[15:32] <RWOverdijk> But I'm glad that I know now :)
[15:32] <TJ-> g_: OK, with the headers in place, you can retry the reinstallation "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-current"
[15:32] <yekoms> i dont want to upgrade. i like 8.04 for openvz. so how about my sudo issue.
[15:32] <tyler_d> Stars: why not simply use a bash script and add it to your cron?
[15:32] <TJ-> g_: check the output... make sure it doesn't say again "Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped..."
[15:32] <ThinkT510> yekoms: i fail to see your issue
[15:32] <RWOverdijk> blz: Also thanks for teaching me a new word.
[15:33] <RWOverdijk> haha
[15:33] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: its all layers. Xorg + Gnome3+ Gnome-Shell + Compiz
[15:33] <g_> TJ-:  I think it passed alright.
[15:33] <Herc> I need assistance regarding mysql.
[15:33] <Stars> tyler_d, i need to set weekly backup and ftp to another server how can i do it
[15:33] <g_> TJ-:  yeah, installing .29 fixed it.
[15:33] <yekoms> with the line above, username can issue: sudo vzctl like hes supposed too, but he can also do sudo id, which returns 0, and sudo passwd to change root. all from that command.
[15:33] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I see... And am I crossing the line if I ask you what android is then?
[15:33] <g_> TJ-:  I reboot !
[15:33] <OerHeks> yekoms if you disable sudo pass, why do you think we can help with "right after i can do sudo id and it dont prompt for a passwd but just exec's it" ?
[15:33] <TJ-> g_: great... and you ought to be able to get away without rebooting...
[15:34] <g_> TJ-:  ah let me see then
[15:34] <TJ-> g_: try "sudo modprobe nvidia_current)updates"
[15:34] <yekoms> dosn't sudo allow a user to sudo just a single file without pass, but not others?
[15:34] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: its some custom UI with linux kernel etc
[15:34] <tyler_d> Stars: a good start would be https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto
[15:34] <TJ-> g_: oops, typo! try "sudo modprobe nvidia_current_updates"
[15:34] <ThinkT510> yekoms: what do you expect when you disable passwords
[15:34] <blz> How can I edit my xorg.conf such that an external monitor will be the *only* output for my laptop?  In addition, I'd like for the output to be at the native resolution for the external display (1920x1080).
[15:34] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Ah. So like ubuntu, fedora etc?
[15:34] <Herc> if you disable a password it will allow you to execute anything I would suppose.
[15:34] <yekoms> uhm, since i set it for a single binary command, just allow username root permissions to said binary...
[15:34] <Stars> tyler_d, thanks
[15:34] <g_> TJ-: FATAL: Module nvidia_current_updates not found.
[15:34] <yekoms> like the manual even says.
[15:35] <tyler_d> Stars:  no worries, best of luck
[15:35] <actionParsnip> RWOverdijk: its a lot different
[15:35] <BluesKaj> yekoms,  add the all no password to you sudoers file by doing , sudo visudo in the temrinal , then add the near the bottom , then ctrl +0 , then hit enter , and ctrl+X
[15:37] <yekoms> so sudoers chains like iptables?
[15:37] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: I love learning that stuff. Sorry if my questions are getting annoying. Then just tell me so :)
[15:37] <TJ-> g_: grrr! "ls -ltr /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/dkms/"
[15:37] <tyler_d> does anyone know the command name or keybinding for delete?
[15:37] <bazhang> RWOverdijk, lets get back on topic please

[15:37] <Herc> Needing help troubleshooting why mysql is not accepting my service account on a Wordpress installation.
[15:37] <yekoms> BluesKaj, the way you explained it, is just like how iptables works.
[15:37] <g_> TJ-:  we installe nvidia-current , not the -updates...
[15:37] <TJ-> g_: ah! On my systems it is named "nvidia-current-updates" !! ... so do "sudo modprobe nvidia" then check it is in memory "lsmod | grep nvidia"
[15:37] <RWOverdijk> bazhang: Right, sorry.
[15:37] <yekoms> first rule to match, is applied. then continue the configuration script
[15:37] <RWOverdijk> actionParsnip: Just installed gnome shell. rebooting :)
[15:37] <TJ-> g_: yes... I have the same version, but from precise-proposed :p
[15:37] <Herc> Also the tab feature to fill in file names in terminal only tabs across like a regular tab. Any reason why on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server?
[15:37] <BluesKaj> yekoms,  ok , I don't use iptables
[15:37] <yekoms> Herc, bash-completion isnt installed.
[15:37] <g_> TJ-: g@G-PLUS:~$ sudo modprobe nvidia  :   FATAL: Module nvidia_current not found.

[15:38] <TJ-> g_:  good idea :p
[15:38] <Herc> would that be dash?
[15:38] <yekoms> TJ-, even in terminal or dash it'll do the same, unless its a GUI thing then it wouldnt.
[15:38] <TJ-> Herc: depends on which shell the user is configured to use
[15:38] <BluesKaj> kenalex, #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:38] <yekoms> Herc, Dash as in unity application thing.
[15:38] <kenalex> thanks
[15:38] <Herc> I switched to gnome
[15:38] <yekoms> no unity? are you in a terminal or ?
[15:39] <Herc> terminal.
[15:39] <TJ-> yekoms: Herc started from Ubuntu-server and installed the gnome-desktop on top, I think
[15:39] <yekoms> and tab returns "           " ?
[15:39] <Herc> yes.
[15:39] <TJ-> Herc: "echo $SHELL"
[15:39] <Herc> It had unity but I switched it to gnome.
[15:39] <yekoms> TJ-, thats how i do my GUI setups.
[15:39] <Herc> one sec.
[15:39] <yekoms> herc, echo $SHELL
[15:39] <yekoms> lol TJ-
[15:40] <TJ-> yekoms: stop stealing my typos :p
[15:40] <azm> is it possible to have grub written in extended partition ?..I just installed ubuntu 12.04 but it automatically boots win like there is no other system..
[15:40] <azm>  ^^
[15:42] <yekoms> azm, what OS did you install first?
[15:42] <azm> win7
[15:42] <Herc> nothing happened.
[15:42] <Herc> just have a blank line.
[15:42] <yekoms> Herc, $shell is empty?
[15:42] <Herc> echo $shell or $Shell?
[15:42] <yekoms> azm, Win7 first, then ubuntu?
[15:42] <yekoms> $SHELL
[15:42] <azm> yep
[15:42] <g_> TJ-:  works like a charm... (at least it looks like it. )
[15:42] <TJ-> azm: You probably installed GRUB to a partition (primary or logical - e.g. sda5 instead of sda)
[15:42] <yekoms> all capped.
[15:42] <ThinkT510> azm: the default is to the mbr but you can configure it to just install to the root partition (you'd need to chainload it then)
[15:42] <yekoms> dammit TJ- let me help someone :P
[15:42] <Gorilla_No_Baka> hello everyone
[15:42] <g_> TJ-: last question, any idea why I get a message Invalid option: -session when I start kde... ? :)
[15:42] <azm> no chainloading pls
[15:42] <Herc> nothing responds.
[15:42] <TJ-> g_: Great... now do from dash "nvidia x settings" and check the config - explore - get used to what it allows you to do
[15:42] <Herc> all I see is just $
[15:42] <azm> would it help if I would create separate boot partition ?
[15:42] <yekoms> Herc, type /bin/bash, then echo $SHELL
[15:42] <TJ-> g_: try asking in #kubuntu - I've no idea with KDE
[15:42] <BluesKaj> azm, have you run sudo update-grub
[15:42] <g_> TJ-:  I don't have Dash :-)
[15:42]  * TJ- bows down to yekoms and muches on a pie
[15:42] <azm> BluesKaj, nope because I cant boot to system-ubuntui
[15:42] <azm> id have to use chroot or something
[15:42] <Gorilla_No_Baka> quickquestion.. why won't ubuntu work with USB 3.0 ? i have a new laptop with 4 usb 3.0 ports but all i get is USB 2.0 speeds instead
[15:42] <yekoms> azm, here is what you need to do, very user friendly. do you have a USB drive?
[15:42] <Gorilla_No_Baka> cheers
[15:42] <yekoms> Gorilla_No_Baka, install 3.0 drivers.
[15:42] <TJ-> g_: OK, well from the System menu... explore for it :p
[15:42] <xsiic> Can anyone help me through getting Bumblebee to work?  No one at #bumblebee is responding.
[15:43] <Herc> not getting anything.
[15:43] <azm> yekoms, yea 4gb only
[15:43] <ThinkT510> Gorilla_No_Baka: usb3 is very new, what kernel are you using?
[15:43] <yekoms> thats big enough, back up the data.. we're going to use it for a LiveCD.
[15:43] <Herc> let me get out of the gui and go to command line.
[15:43] <azm> but I was in live cd did
[15:43] <azm> sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/ /dev/sda
[15:43] <g_> TJ-: yeah indeed very fancy options there:) I wish I could sharpen my fonts a bit.. but thanks mate, if there's a vote for best support I vote for ya hehe
[15:43] <azm> where sda is sdb in my case
[15:44] <TJ-> Herc: Are you typing those commands in gnome-terminal? That would be fine.
[15:44] <Gorilla_No_Baka> i think i am using the standard kernel that comes shippied with the last version of ubuntu
[15:44] <yekoms> did you mount sda1 to /mnt?
[15:44] <azm> before that sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt
[15:44] <azm> yea
[15:44] <yekoms> did you use the --mirror opt?
[15:44] <azm> *or sdb5
[15:44] <TJ-> g_: awww shucks... well, just return the favour and help someone else when you see a question you can deal with
[15:44] <yekoms> mount --bind /dev/sda1 /mnt ?
[15:44] <yekoms> then do the procfs aswell?
[15:44] <azm> no
[15:44] <azm> thats not in manual
[15:44] <yekoms> heh, hold on a moment please.
[15:45] <g_> TJ-:  I'll sure do so :-)
[15:45] <yekoms> azm, is this what you followed? http://www.howtogeek.com/114884/how-to-repair-grub2-when-ubuntu-wont-boot/
[15:45] <Herc> It's stuck in my home directoy.
[15:46] <Jacruth> Hello, someone told me I could ask this here. I'm using Ubuntu and I have a 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03), and I listen sound from the headphone and from the speakers. How could I fix it, in order to listen sound only from the headphones when they are pluged?
[15:46] <azm> my disk looks like this :  primary-primary-primary(all ntfs)-extended-ext4-ext4-ntfs
[15:46] <Herc> May someone give me the proper syntax to go to that directory to run $Shell since I am not getting a response.
[15:48] <yekoms> azm, what drive contains the mbr?
[15:48] <azm> dunno
[15:48] <TJ-> Herc: Have you got gnome-terminal open with a command prompt showing?
[15:48] <azm> probably the windows one ?
[15:48] <yekoms> Herc, you have to cap entire SHELL.
[15:48] <yekoms> azm, the mbr is the drive selected in bios for Drive 1st.
[15:48] <Herc> I am in the command line where you hit ctrl +alt + F1
[15:48] <azm> ah so I should change in bios to sdb 4 ?
[15:48] <TJ-> azm: MBR is Master Boot Record. It's the first sector (512 bytes) on a hard disk.
[15:48] <azm> yea
[15:48] <yekoms> if the MBR is on the boot drive sdb4
[15:48] <yekoms> azm: http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repairrestorereinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd/
[15:48] <yekoms> that is how its properly done from a LiveCD.
[15:48] <TJ-> azm: When a system boots, the BIOS reads the devices in the boot-order, reads the MBR and sees if it has boot-code in it. If it does, it loads it into memory and executes it
[15:48] <actionParsnip> Herc: which directory do you want to go to?
[15:48] <yekoms> don't take no more then 10 minutes.
[15:48] <Herc> I was told to go to /bin/bash to run $Shell but I don't get anything
[15:49] <yekoms> Tj-, all drives can contain a mbr, but the one he needs is the main drive listed as 1ST in bios :P
[15:49] <tyler_d> I'm trying to set alt-delete to "delete"
[15:49] <yekoms> export SHELL=/bin/bash; echo $SHELL
[15:49] <actionParsnip> Herc: seems a bit weird, what to achieve?
[15:49] <TJ-> Herc: No, that's not the command line. We need you to open a Terminal window. In the dash type "Terminal" and launch it
[15:53] <yekoms> he want bash-completion.
[15:53] <yekoms> wants*
[15:53] <actionParsnip> yekoms: oh thats easy
[15:53] <azm> yekoms, and If I do the chroot the grub will intall itself automatically to mbr ?
[15:53] <azm> so I dont have to do additional changes
[15:53] <yekoms> apt-get install bash-completion lol. well thats how i did it on freebsd, cept its done via port install bash-completion3
[15:53] <actionParsnip> Herc: if you run:  gedit ~/.bashrc     make sure the last 3 lines are uncommented
[15:53] <yekoms> aslong as your mounting the drive selected to boot from bios yes.
[15:53] <Herc> my last issue aside from this is why when I create a mysql service account that it rejects my login but it allows it for root via a wordpress install.
[15:53] <Herc> Can't connect to my database as the service account.
[15:53] <actionParsnip> Herc: then run:  source ~/.bashrc
[15:53] <Herc> ok
[15:53] <azm> yekoms, gonna try it, thanks
[15:53] <Herc> so am I installing bash completion?
[15:53] <azm> TJ, thanks
[15:53] <yekoms> welcome azm.
[15:53] <yekoms> Herc, i was just making a statement :P
[15:53] <TJ-> azm: When booting from a LiveISO it is possible the live device is /dev/sda ... so we need to be sure to correct the device-name given to grub-install
[15:53] <yekoms> he left.
[15:53] <TJ-> He'll be back
[15:53] <ardchoille> hehe
[15:53] <actionParsnip> Herc: no, you are enabling it, its default installed
[15:53] <yekoms> the guide i gave him is a good one. it should work aslong as he installs grub on the bio 1st drive.
[15:53] <TJ-> Herc: Do you have a 'Terminal' window now with a command prompt?
[15:54] <WeThePeople> how do i upgrade to 10.04
[15:54] <Gorilla_No_Baka> so.. any ideas on why i don't get usb3.0 speeds in ubunntu 12.04?
[15:54] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: from...
[15:54] <yekoms> dont you do apt-get dist-upgrade to upgrade ubuntu?
[15:54] <ThinkT510> no
[15:54] <lobhater> Gorilla_No_Baka: please paste bin the output from   lsusb
[15:54] <yekoms> WeThePeople, try googling that simple question ;)
[15:55] <bazhang> yekoms, dist-upgrade does NOT change versions
[15:55] <ThinkT510> !dist-upgrade | yekoms
[15:55] <TJ-> Gorilla_No_Baka: Were you dfadeur earlier ?
[15:55] <yekoms> !upgrade
[15:55] <bazhang> !google | yekoms
[15:55] <yekoms> what is google-fu ?
[15:55] <WeThePeople> yekoms, i do both actually
[15:55] <bazhang> yekoms, NEVER recommend google here
[15:55] <lobhater> kung-fu, play on words
[15:55] <TJ-> WeThePeople: From which release of Ubuntu?
[15:56] <Herc> checking something hold on.
[15:56] <Gorilla_No_Baka> right i am not on ubuntu now.. but the lsubs and dmesg shows that the usb highspeed  is recognized
[15:56] <WeThePeople> tj-, 10.04
[15:56] <Gorilla_No_Baka>  however... the speeds i am geting  are well under 50 MB
[15:56] <bazhang> WeThePeople, you mean 12.04 then
[15:56] <g_> Guys would this be OK for my .xinitrc ? #!/usr/bin/env bash    exec startkde
[15:56] <yekoms> if your on 10.04 how do you expect to upgrade to 10.04 ?
[15:56] <TJ-> WeThePeople: You want to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.04 !? :s
[15:57] <yekoms> do you mean 11.04, 11.10 or 12.04 ?
[15:57] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: you want to update to 10.04, what do you want to update from?
[15:57] <lobhater> Gorilla_No_Baka: and you are sure you have a use 3.0 device connected?  how are you measuring the speeds you are getting?  what speeds are you expecting?
[15:57] <yekoms> hes expecting the 150MB
[15:57] <TJ-> Gorilla_No_Baka: Are you using Win7 now, to test it?
[15:57] <yekoms> or whatever speeds usb3 is.
[15:58] <WeThePeople> tj-, i would like to upgrade to 10.04.4 to 10.04.5
[15:58] <Gorilla_No_Baka>  no.. windows  7 was so crappy and would drop my external devices so fast that i decided to try windows bloody 8.. for a change.. no joy either
[15:58] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: then just update normally
[16:00] <TJ-> WeThePeople: Ahh. That is part of the normal "apt-get upgrade" and "apt-get dist-upgrade" process
[16:00] <Gorilla_No_Baka> the only os that can support (ish) is linux
[16:00] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:00] <yekoms> how do you update normally, apt-get update; apt-get upgrade; apt-get dist-upgrade' ?
[16:00] <Gorilla_No_Baka>  but even like that ... i hear other people can get full usb3.0 speeds in ubuntu
[16:00] <WeThePeople> yekoms, update manager
[16:00] <TJ-> Gorilla_No_Baka: So neither of the Windows versions support USB3 ?
[16:00] <yekoms> i get usb3 full speeds, but i didnt do anything special.
[16:00] <bazhang> Gorilla_No_Baka, there is no limitation. usb3 works great here
[16:00] <yekoms> WeThePeople, if you know how, why would you ask ?
[16:00] <Herc> ok the bash completion is fixed now I have the mysql problem.
[16:00] <g_> This is my .xinitrc , does it look ok ? g@G-PLUS:~$ cat .xinitrc #!/usr/bin/env bash exec startkde
[16:00] <OerHeks> Gorilla_No_Baka, check hdd speed with "hdparm -tT /dev/sda " ( or sdb/sdc whatever your ext drive is)
[16:00] <yekoms> Herc, i use webmin to manage my mysql server.
[16:00] <WeThePeople> yekoms, idk
[16:00] <Gorilla_No_Baka> TJ-:  if by supporting you mean dropping every 45 seconds like crazy ....:)
[16:00] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: what is the output of: lsb_release -sd
[16:00] <Herc> I can put webmin in the problems is I made a service account to run wordpress for the mysql database.
[16:00] <ThinkT510> !webmin | Herc
[16:01] <bazhang> !webmin > yekoms
[16:01] <TJ-> Gorilla_No_Baka: From what I read about the controllers and drivers, the mix of Intel and non-Intel, and the Port Mask registers, is the issue. This discussion might help you understand it.  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg70218.html
[16:02] <Gorilla_No_Baka> OerHeks:  for 45 seconds untill the external harddrive is dropped (unmounted) on windows i get 150 MB/s
[16:02] <Gorilla_No_Baka> so  i guess that 'spretty much it
[16:02] <Gorilla_No_Baka> TJ-:
[16:02] <Gorilla_No_Baka> TJ-: cheers mate
[16:02] <|Anthony|> when editing entires at help.ubuntu.com, is there a way to get a scrollbar for code blocks? or something that would serve the same purpose?
[16:02] <yekoms> Herc, try using phpmyadmin, it does mysql aswell...i dont manage mysql via console so i cant help you any further.
[16:02] <Gorilla_No_Baka>  i am gonna have a look at it
[16:02] <TJ-> Gorilla_No_Baka: the USB kernel developers are actively working on it, from what I see
[16:02] <Gorilla_No_Baka> http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg70218.html
[16:03] <Herc> so. why would mysql accept the root login but it rejects my service account on the wordpress install?
[16:03] <Gorilla_No_Baka> TJ-:   let's hope  they will make ut
[16:03] <Herc> I added the user via phpmyadmin
[16:03] <yekoms> what hostname is the service account?
[16:03] <|Anthony|> also, some words in the entry i made @help.ubunut.com get autolinks to pages that don't exist yet. can i remove these as there seem to be an over-abundance of them?
[16:03] <yekoms> and did you add the hostname it'll be connecting from to said service account?
[16:04] <Herc> yes localhost.
[16:04] <mneptok> Herc: you do understand that UNIX system accounts and MySQL user accounts are completely unrelated, yes?
[16:04] <yekoms> try ANY
[16:04] <yekoms> then check mysql log.
[16:04] <Herc> Yes I know.
[16:04] <Herc> but there's a root account in mysql.
[16:04]  * Gorilla_No_Baka ciggie break
[16:04] <Herc> I did not want to use root I wanted to use the service account I made for security reasons.
[16:04] <yekoms> did you give correct access to said service account?
[16:04] <mneptok> Herc: you have to GRANT rights to the USER on the database
[16:04] <Herc> yes I did.
[16:04] <Herc> I did grant the rights.
[16:04] <yekoms> i think its a host issue.
[16:05] <yekoms> pastebin the error as it shown please.
[16:05] <Herc> I pointed it to the database it needs to perform the rights on.
[16:05] <Herc> Well I am running the wordpress script.
[16:05] <mneptok> Herc: and you set a MySQL password for that user, and are using the correct IDENTIFIED BY?
[16:05] <yekoms> so is that, i cant do that right now?
[16:05] <Herc> and right where it asks for the mysql username and pass I put in my web_wordpress account and pass and it fails.
[16:05] <Herc> When I put in the root account it works.
[16:05] <yekoms> what does it say when it fails?
[16:05] <yekoms> thats important :)
[16:05] <Herc> error connection to mysql database
[16:06] <yekoms> thats it?
[16:06] <Herc> yes.
[16:06] <Herc> when I go back and put in root I can continue to install wordpress.
[16:06] <yekoms> no permissions to the selected database.
[16:06] <Herc> I put permissions to my wordpress database.
[16:06] <Herc> I even gave it full permissions like root and it still didn't work.
[16:07] <yeats> Herc: check your mysql log for clues
 mirzaei, wrong channel. #ubuntu is for support:)
[16:07] <mneptok> Herc: you set permissions inside MYSQL using some of the commands i sent in caps, or you gave permissions in the filesystem?
[16:07] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:07] <actionParsnip> Herc: do you have autocomplete now?
[16:07] <Herc> I set them through phpmyadmin
[16:07] <Herc> yes I do action.
[16:07] <actionParsnip> Herc: sweet
[16:07] <Herc> I installed the lib tools that it told me in terminal and it worked.
[16:07] <mneptok> Herc: take phpmyadmin out of the mix.
[16:08] <Herc> ok
[16:08] <mneptok> Herc: use the MySQL command line to create a sb and issue GRANTS
[16:08] <mneptok> *db
[16:08] <Herc> I did this before in ubuntu 10 and 11 without a problem
[16:08] <mneptok> Herc: it's not Ubuntu
[16:09] <Sidney__> is it possible to install an old kernel
[16:09] <yekoms> it sure is.
[16:09] <Sidney__> from command line
[16:10] <yekoms> and even select it as default in the /etc/defaults/grub
[16:10] <mneptok> Sidney__: unless you uninstalled them, previous kernels arwe available at the grub menu
[16:10] <yekoms> Sidney__, yes, from command line.
[16:10] <yekoms> he could have done a grub menu cleaning at some point like i do when i upgraded my kernels.
[16:10] <yekoms> but i move the old kernels to /boot/oldkernels, then update-grub
[16:10] <NME_> I need some help with installing ubuntu on my computer.
[16:10] <mneptok> yekoms: well, that's not how Debian handles kernel management.
[16:11] <actionParsnip> Sidney__: if you can find the packages, yes
[16:11] <yekoms> NME_, what kind of help?
[16:11] <mneptok> yekoms: you remove kernel packages, which updates the bootloader. you don't edit grub configs.
[16:11] <Sidney__> I think maybe if i install another kernel my system will boot into the desktop
[16:11] <mneptok> Sidney__: try booting to an older kernel at the brug boot menu
[16:11] <yekoms> mneptok, uhm, if you have a large list of kernels, and you want a auto selection done for you, you edit /etc/defaults/grub, then update-grub for grub2.
[16:12] <actionParsnip> yekoms: if you can run:  uname -a; dpkg -l | grep linux-image      and pastebin the output, we can help remove the old kernels
[16:12] <yekoms> i dont want to remove them.
[16:12] <NME_> It doesn't work when i run the installer it just boots windows as usual and shows no sign of it doing anything else.
[16:12] <yekoms> NME_, when your booting, hit F12, and select CDROM
[16:12] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:12] <actionParsnip> yekoms: you can set the default in /etc/default/grub but if you add a new kernel, the number isn't honoured
[16:12] <mneptok> yekoms: you said "grub menu cleaning" and not "grub menu custom edits." "cleaning" implies you're removing stuff. which you should not do,
[16:12] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:13] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:13] <Sidney__> mneptok, that is the problem i usually uninstall the old as soon as i get the new one. I know better now
[16:13] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:13] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:13] <mirzaei> i have aspire 5750 with nvidia vga and now i install nvidia-current_295.40-0ubuntu1_i386.deb but no cinnoment not log in and in gnome2d flash light not work
[16:13] <NME_> Ok ill try it. Thanks.
[16:13] <yekoms> mneptok, there is a few ubuntuforums.org posts where people suggest this, so you can keep the headers for building if needed.
[16:13] <Herc> got it.
[16:14] <Herc> it had a % signs for the host box
[16:14] <yekoms> Herc, what was wrong?
[16:14] <yekoms> told you it was a host issue ;)
[16:14] <mneptok> yekoms: what random forum posters say doesn't really dictate how i maintain a Debian system :)
[16:14] <Herc> I switched it to say localhost and recreated the user and now it went through.
[16:14] <yekoms> mneptok, hence the phrase: To each their own :D
[16:14] <Herc> to think 1 % sign can offset the whole thing.
[16:15] <yekoms> linux has to be perfect :P
[16:15] <mneptok> yekoms: yes, but on the official support channel you are asked to follow best practices. and hand-editing GRUB stuff is not a best practice.
[16:15] <TJ-> Herc: In mysql "%" is like the linux shell "*" glob character - it matches everything
[16:15] <Herc> well it had that for my service account but it was getting rejected.
[16:15] <Herc> when I switched it as he said to localhost it went right in this time.
[16:15] <yekoms> i never told him to edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg, but to edit /etc/defaults/grub and update-grub, which is best practices.
[16:16] <actionParsnip> yekoms: default, not defaults
[16:16] <yekoms> anyways, ive been trying to figure out how to give a user sudo acces to just a single file, instead of *
[16:17] <yekoms> actionParsnip, i have a bad habit of adding 's' to directory..causes me tons of problems when i do my systems :(
[16:17] <yekoms> !ot
[16:17] <actionParsnip> yekoms: use tAB to complete stuff and you'll have fewer issues
[16:18] <yekoms> actionParsnip, tab dont complete when your writing bash scripts :(
[16:18] <actionParsnip> yekoms: you can set the setuid bit and it will run as root regardless of the user running it
[16:18] <yekoms> how?
[16:18] <yekoms> all i want is user 'vps' to run /usr/sbin/vzctl
[16:18] <yekoms> and no one else..except root ofc.
[16:19] <actionParsnip> yekoms: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=linux+setuid
[16:19] <IDWMaster> Hi. What is the appropriate IRC channel for development questions?
[16:19] <theadmin> IDWMaster: #ubuntu-devel
[16:19] <yekoms> yeah this wont work for me, as im writing in TCL.
[16:20] <TJ-> yekoms: I have this on one of my servers: "eddie  jeeves= /sbin/shutdown, /sbin/ifup, /sbin/ifconfig, /sbin/ip, /usr/sbin/service"
[16:20] <WeThePeople> what would be the command to do a release upgrade 10.04 to 10.10, "sudo do-release-upgrade 10.10"
[16:20] <WeThePeople> ?
[16:20] <yekoms> is that without passwd?
[16:20] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: 10.10 is no longer supported
[16:20] <theadmin> WeThePeople: Upgrade to 12.04 directly
[16:20] <actionParsnip> yekoms: I believe so, try it. You can always undo it
[16:20] <yekoms> the .tcl is a auto vps creater.
[16:20] <WeThePeople> theadmin, will my files and apps be ok if i do this
[16:21] <yekoms> WeThePeople, in theory yes.
[16:21] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: make backups just incase
[16:21] <Jacruth> Hello, someone told me I could ask this here. I'm using Ubuntu and I have a 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03), and I listen sound from the headphone and from the speakers. How could I fix it, in order to listen sound only from the headphones when they are pluged?
[16:21] <actionParsnip> WeThePeople: you can upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04 directly (LTS to LTS)
[16:21] <WeThePeople> ok thanks
[16:21] <yekoms> it should install everything.. BUT things do happen.
[16:21] <ThinkT510> WeThePeople: it is always prudent to make backups
[16:21] <theadmin> WeThePeople: Sure -- though as far as I remember updates fail if you have any 3rd party repos or apps
[16:22] <Sidney__> If I do the upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04 you think it will solve my driver problems
[16:22] <yekoms> TJ-, what is jeeves? the group?
[16:22] <actionParsnip> Sidney__: more than likely, newer apps, newer kernel etc
[16:22] <yekoms> Sidney__, no one can give you a completly correct answer like that.
[16:22] <TJ-> yekoms: The server hostname
[16:22] <tuxatcom> hi, how can i change the permissions of the folder so that the files its includes have the same permission as the folder?
[16:22] <mmfreak> sup bitches
[16:22] <yekoms> ohhh, so in my case it'd be: vps blackness-web=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/vzctl
[16:23] <yekoms> tuxatcom, chmod -R
[16:23] <tuxatcom> yekoms, thank you very much :D
[16:23] <yekoms> welcome.
[16:23] <yekoms> man chmod for further help.
[16:23] <theadmin> yekoms: False! That changes the subfolders as well, he asked only about files.
[16:23] <actionParsnip> tuxatcom: use:  sudo chmod -R user /path/to/folder
[16:23] <yekoms> then use the find . -f command ;)
[16:24] <theadmin> tuxatcom: find your_folder -type f -exec chmod 000 '{}' \; # replace 000 with the appropriate perms
[16:24] <yekoms> find . -f -exec {} chmod ??? -
[16:24] <yekoms> what theadmin said.
[16:24] <theadmin> actionParsnip: What's "user" doing there?
[16:24] <TJ-> actionParsnip: shouldn't "chmod -R user ..." be "chown -R user ..."  ?
[16:24] <theadmin> actionParsnip: chmod is not chown
[16:24] <yekoms> yes, chown ...
[16:24] <actionParsnip> theadmin: the user to chmod to
[16:24] <yekoms> sorry tuxatcom..do this
[16:24] <actionParsnip> d'oh
[16:24] <bazhang> !language > mmfreak
[16:25] <BluesKaj> mmfreak, think that's cool "talk" ?
[16:25] <actionParsnip> theadmin: you're riht, mixed up
[16:25] <mmfreak> cry
[16:25] <mmfreak> i dont think so
[16:25] <mmfreak> it IS
[16:25] <yekoms> find your_folder -type f -exec chmod 755 '{}' \; gives user: exec, grp: rw, others: rw
[16:27] <WeThePeople> actionparsnip, does upgrade have a --help page
[16:27] <actionParsnip> !upgrade
[16:27] <yekoms> freenode is having some serious TS linking issues..
[16:28] <actionParsnip> yekoms: what is 'TS'?
[16:28] <yekoms> time syncing.
[16:28] <priyesh> when i go full screen in flash (i have 2 screens) the video sort of goes full screen across both of them but only 1 screen shows it so it's essentially half the video
[16:28] <priyesh> any ideas?
[16:28] <tuxatcom> i install lamp-server for local machine. but i can't access localhost/phpmyadmin (it says not found) ... why?
[16:28] <actionParsnip> yekoms: I'd make the issues known in #freenod then
[16:28] <actionParsnip> #freenode
[16:28] <yekoms> they cant fix that manually, the irc leafs have to resync.. it'll fix it self i hope ;P
[16:29] <actionParsnip> priyesh: does it affect all browsers?
[16:29] <yekoms> ntpd will catch up heh.
[16:29] <priyesh> actionParsnip: just chrome
[16:29] <theadmin> Is there any package in Ubuntu for the Gentoo's Path Sandbox? I think Debian had one... (not too sure)
[16:30] <yekoms> sandbox? you mean to catch hax0rs?
[16:31] <folorn> how you empty a full dir
[16:31] <folorn> instead of doing it all by hand?
[16:31] <yekoms> whoa, this setuid is dangerious.
[16:31] <theadmin> folorn: rm -r directory
[16:31] <folorn> anyone ive tried rmdir -r
[16:32] <yekoms> all i did was write a small setuid script, and it works, i hope people cant do setuid on sudo or su like this
[16:32] <antivirtel> hello! Is there any working netcafe software solution. I've tried CafePilot & Mkahawa, but the first is not good, and the second can't really work...
[16:32] <antivirtel> ?
[16:33] <lampe2> hey i got a self signed cert on my server. i wanne use this cert systemwide on my laptop how can i do this ?
[16:33] <tuxatcom> how can i shutdown and start a lamp-server? i want to install phpmyadmin :)
[16:34] <actionParsnip> tuxatcom: sudo service whatever stop
[16:35] <yekoms> doesnt lamp have a main service it uses to shut down all 4 at once?
[16:35] <yekoms> if not, he can write one :)
[16:36] <actionParsnip> yekoms: see if lamp is an option as a servce, otherwise kill all 4
[16:36] <tuxatcom> actionParsnip, thanks, but how can i find out a servername or number of the lamp-server ?? :[
[16:36] <tuxatcom> actionParsnip, servicename*
[16:36] <actionParsnip> tuxatcom: you can tab complete service names, so type l and then hit TAB
[16:36] <yekoms> i dont use lamp LOL. i use lighttpd, mysql, php..so mine is a LMP setup. and i wrote a single servicename for them.
[16:37] <lobhater> on pidgin when you detach a tab, is there a way to reattach it?
[16:37] <yekoms> tuxatcom, you can look in /etc/rc?.d for the scripts. :)
[16:37] <yekoms> lobhater, drag and drop the window into the main window, thats how xchat does it
[16:37] <yekoms> !package blackbox
[16:38] <actionParsnip> yekoms: then stop those services and you are gold
[16:38] <tuxatcom> actionParsnip, thanks, i will try.
[16:38] <tuxatcom> yekoms, thanks
[16:38] <yekoms> actionParsnip, tuxatcom was asking about LAMP. :)
[16:38] <actionParsnip> yekoms: you could even make a new service called lamp which stops all 4 :)
[16:38] <yekoms> welcome tuxatcom. thats what good service is about, Free and prompt.
[16:38] <actionParsnip> ohhhh
[16:38] <lobhater> yekoms: i have tried, doesnt work. I think ti must not support it. I have searched to no avail
[16:38] <yekoms> actionParsnip, i have service hosting stop :)
[16:38] <actionParsnip> yekoms: nice!
[16:39] <yekoms> it stops lighttpd, mysql, php, but service lighttpd stop never closes lighttpd, i HAVE to pkill lighttpd
[16:39] <yekoms> everytime.
[16:39] <yekoms> lobhater, are you using pidgin for irc?
[16:41] <dante123> hi all, had dual monitor setup but needed one somewhere else.  Now upon reboot getting this message everytime "Could not apply the stored configuation for monitors"...How to clear/fix this?
[16:41] <actionParsnip> yekoms: could add the pkill to the script
[16:41] <dante123> also says "none of the selected modes were compatible with possible modes...trying modes for CRTC 354"
[16:43] <tuxatcom> yekoms, sorry but i don't understand what to do with these scripts. Should i execute each script in the read me file it says their purpose is to stop all services...
[16:43] <actionParsnip> dante123: what video chip do you use?
[16:43] <dante123> nvidia 550 i think....hang on
[16:45] <actionParsnip> dante123: which nvidia driver version are you using?
[16:45] <dante123> GEForce GTX 550 Ti
[16:45] <dante123> 295.40
[16:45] <WeThePeople> how do i open a file in tty to edit it?
[16:46] <dante123> Everything was good until I added the second monitor...and only after I took it away did this issue crop up
[16:46] <rymate1234> hey
[16:46] <dante123> Im thinking there is some reference to the second monitor in some config file and when it cant find it I get the error message....although when I close message all is well.  Just annoying mainly....
[16:46] <ssfdrett8> hey what is a good scree capture program i can use?
[16:46] <blz> How can I edit my xorg.conf such that an external monitor will be the *only* output for my laptop?  In addition, I'd like for the output to be at the native resolution for the external display (1920x1080).
[16:46] <rymate1234> don't suppose there's a way to integrate skype with empathu
[16:47] <rymate1234> *empathy
[16:49] <actionParsnip> dante123: try:  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates ; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:49] <dante123> BTW, tried installing 12.10 Beta 2....and it has major issues with my graphics......screen is really weird....background a mess of blocks and colours.....only launcher works
[16:49] <dante123> ok actionParsnip
[16:49] <tuxatcom> i install the lamp server with ( sudo apt-get install lamp-server^) but i can't access MySql (localhost/mysql). Can someone tell me how to access mysql or phpmyadmin?
[16:49] <actionParsnip> dante123: Quantal isn't supported here
[16:49] <azm> hi I chrooted to ubuntu but after grub-update I got Cannot find list of partitions!  (Try mounting /sys.)
[16:49] <dante123> thats fine....just throwing that out there....
[16:49] <actionParsnip> dante123: until release day, Quantal is only supported in #ubuntu+1
[16:49] <dante123> hope all bugs are out before launch....
[16:49] <actionParsnip> dante123: works fine here
[16:49] <DarkStar1> Anyone here installed dovecot with mysql lately? I'm missing the auth-sql file in conf.d and was wondering if anyone know where I can grab a copy
[16:49] <thewanderer1> DarkStar1: workaround.org should have an idea
[16:49] <Sidney__> what was the kernel before 2.6.32-43-generic
[16:49] <islandmonkey> ActionParsnip: Does that PPA contain the latest NVIDIA drivers?
[16:49] <DarkStar1> nice trolling :) thewanderer1
[16:50] <dante123> ok actionParsnip just reboot when it is done and see if message goes away?
[16:50] <yekoms> Sidney__, wow, thats a old kernel.
[16:50] <yekoms> im still using 2.6 but thats cause im using openVZ
[16:51] <Sidney__> It's 10.04 and it was updated not long go
[16:51] <Sidney__> ago
[16:52] <mmfreak> just updated my ubuntu
[16:52] <leaftwig> I have current, how do I browse the source?
[16:52] <mmfreak> why i have to choose a disk with grubpc ?
[16:52] <mmfreak> did udids change ?
[16:52] <evil_> y
[16:52] <evil_> hi
[16:53] <ThinkT510> leaftwig: current what?
[16:53] <leaftwig> ubuntu
[16:53] <ThinkT510> !source | leaftwig
[16:54] <actionParsnip> dante123: sure, you have a newish video chip, the 295 driver may be too old for what you have
[16:54] <evil_> hihihi
[16:54] <islandmonkey> Hi evil_
[16:54] <yekoms> ok, when i do 'su' enter the passwd, it fails, but i can ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and use the same passwd and it works.
[16:54] <yekoms> any ideas?
[16:54] <jrib> yekoms: you may be using an ssh key...
[16:55] <yekoms> i didnt set one up.
[16:55] <jrib> yekoms: how/why did you enable the root account?
[16:56] <quixotedon> i got bluetooth not working after installing precise
[16:56] <yekoms> it was enabled by default when setting up the VPS.
[16:56] <yekoms> but i cant issue su, but i can do sudo su fine.
[16:56] <actionParsnip> yekoms: instead of su,  use:   sudo -i
[16:56] <yekoms> or ssh in as root.
[16:56] <jrib> yekoms: ask your provider then
[16:56] <yekoms> actionParsnip, su should still work like sudo -i
[16:56] <actionParsnip> yekoms: sudo -i   uses your  user's configs, rather than that of root
[16:56] <yekoms> jrib, i am my provider ;)
[16:57] <actionParsnip> yekoms: similar but not the same
[16:57] <yekoms> ahh gotcha actionParsnip
[16:57] <jrib> yekoms: so then I repeat my question... "how/why did you enable root?"
[16:57] <actionParsnip> yekoms: when you se to root, the configs of root will be reread
[16:57] <DarkStar1> Guys need your help with dovecot as it is critic for me. I'm looking for a config file that could have been changed for the ubuntu distro or its location moved
[16:57] <yekoms> ohh actionParsnip.
[16:57] <actionParsnip> yekoms: using:  sudo -i   will mean you can use the configs in your user's profile
[16:57] <DarkStar1> the auth-sql.conf file
[16:58] <actionParsnip> yekoms: if you just forget about root, and use sudo, you'll have an easier time
[16:58] <yekoms> jrib, again, root was enabled automaticly VIA the OS Template provided with OpenVZ.
[16:58] <jrib> yekoms: then ask the provider of the template
[16:58] <yekoms> actionParsnip, i didnt have my user in sudoers at the time i tried :)
[16:58] <actionParsnip> yekoms: I see, then add it to the sudo group and redisable root
[16:59] <NME_> I need some advice/help on installing ubuntu.
[16:59] <yekoms> now i know why service lighttpd stop doesnt work, there's not PID file of lighttpd
[16:59] <mmfreak> :D
[16:59] <ThinkT510> NME_: then you need to be specific
[16:59] <mmfreak> #
[17:00] <azm1> yekoms, I tried chroot but I got error afer grub-update
[17:00] <islandmonkey> !patience | DarkStar1
[17:01] <NME_> When i run the installer and it reboots it just starts windows normally and it doesn't show any sign of it doing otherwise. (and i have changed it so it boots the disc drive first)
[17:01] <yekoms> what error azm1 ?
[17:01] <azm1> Im searching
[17:01] <yekoms> did you issue grub-update, or update-grub?
[17:01] <azm1> sec.
[17:01]  * DarkStar1 adopts the zen position
[17:02] <azm1> i forget it :(
[17:02] <DarkStar1> what is the command format that searches the repo for a file? I have forgotten
[17:03] <azm1> something is not on list try to mont sys
[17:03] <azm1> *mount
[17:03] <WeThePeople> how do i open a file 'in' tty to edit it?
[17:03] <yekoms> do you have your livecd running?
[17:03] <jrib> WeThePeople: use nano
[17:03] <jrib> DarkStar1: apt-file search
[17:03] <WeThePeople> jrib, thanks
[17:03] <`Nano_> no don't use me D:
[17:03] <yekoms> update-grub shouldnt give any errors unless you're working off the wrong drive.
[17:03] <azm1> but man
[17:03] <DarkStar1> jrib: thx
[17:03] <azm1> I gave just one drive
[17:04]  * jrib downgrades `Nano_ to emacs
[17:04] <azm1> one sda
[17:04] <yekoms> how many drives are installed currently?
[17:04] <azm1> I disconnected the second
[17:04] <yekoms> if there is JUST one, then SATA1, or IDA0 will be SDA.
[17:04] <azm1> in bios there is no way to choose anything different
[17:04] <azm1> sata,yes
[17:04] <azm1> its sda
[17:04] <yekoms> which hopefully is what bios has as MASTER0.
[17:05] <test1_> guheru9o
[17:05] <test1_> e48q2p
[17:05] <yekoms> then you should do mount --bind /dev/sda1 /mnt; mount --bind procfs /mnt/procfs; chroot /mnt; update-grub
[17:05] <ovrflw0x> where can i get WUBI.exe for 12.10?
[17:05] <yekoms> and it should go fine.
[17:05] <test1_> hyfsoooi22386
[17:05] <yekoms> ovrflw0x, its in the ISO's.
[17:05] <ThinkT510> ovrflw0x: avoid wubi, 12.10 support in #ubuntu+1
[17:05] <ovrflw0x> ThinkT510, why avoid wubi?
[17:05] <yekoms> ohhh .10, i thought he said .04, i'm sorry. disregard my statement.
[17:06] <ThinkT510> ovrflw0x: its only meant to be used as a demo (or taster)
[17:06] <WeThePeople> jrib, will midnight commander work just as well??
[17:06] <yekoms> i found a workaround for the broken lighttpd upstart script ;)
[17:06] <azm1> and its always sda1
[17:06] <ThinkT510> ovrflw0x: if you really want to use ubuntu then install it to its own partition
[17:06] <jrib> WeThePeople: you can probably open an editor from inside mc, but mc is just a file browser
[17:06] <azm1> because its at the beginning ?
[17:07] <jrib> yekoms: broken in what way?
[17:07] <ovrflw0x> ThinkT510, will it have dual graphics support? a+i mux support?
[17:07] <WeThePeople> jrib, yeah mcedit
[17:07] <yekoms> service lighttpd stop doesnt work.
[17:07] <yekoms> lighttpd fails to create a PID file..
[17:08] <jrib> yekoms: seems to work ok here on 12.04
[17:08] <yekoms> so i added, PID=`ps aux|grep lighttpd|grep username|awk '{ print $2 }'`; kill -9 $PID
[17:08] <yekoms> im using 11.10
[17:08] <zodiak> ovrflw0x, what do you mean by dual graphics support ? there are about 5 different 'dual graphics' things that could apply to
[17:08] <yekoms> i run lighttpd as a normal user.
[17:08] <ThinkT510> ovrflw0x: if wubi doesn't have it nor will ubuntu
[17:08] <yekoms> i never run anything as root, but sshd.
[17:09] <ovrflw0x> zodiak, ThinkT510 linux in general is very slow for newer hardware
[17:09] <zodiak> ovrflw0x, come to think of it, what do you mean by a+i mux
[17:09] <yekoms> linux is slow on newer hardware?
[17:09] <cdavid578> i need download films.............
[17:09] <zodiak> ovrflw0x, urm.. well.. I have dual 7850's running on the desktop
[17:09] <jrib> yekoms: by default, lighttpd will run as www-data
[17:09] <zodiak> ovrflw0x, and intel/nvidia hotswap on laptop
[17:10] <bazhang> !piracy > cdavid578
[17:10] <yekoms> if set within the config it will.
[17:10] <ovrflw0x> very slow for making graphics drivers for newer hardware
[17:10] <zodiak> so.. not sure what you mean by 'dual graphics'
[17:10] <jrib> yekoms: grepping ps aux like that doesn't seem ideal
[17:10] <cdavid578> ok ty
[17:10] <TuxProbe> guys, what have happened to all them beautiful panel applets? is gnome-panel totally gone since unity launcher and compiz merged?
[17:10] <yekoms> pgrep lighttpd is simpler.
[17:10] <ThinkT510> ovrflw0x: thank the graphics card makers
[17:12] <tozen> TuxProbe, u can chioo
[17:12] <jrib> yekoms: I still wouldn't recommend that
[17:12] <yekoms> can i ask, why not?
[17:12] <yekoms> if lighttpd wont create the pid file, i need a solution.
[17:12] <jrib> yekoms: well, what if you have a process like lighttpdxyz.  Why won't lighttpd create a pid file?
[17:13] <yekoms> i have no idea, nothing in error.log
[17:13] <TuxProbe> tozen chioo??
[17:13] <jrib> yekoms: did you change any of the default setup?  You said before you had it running as non-root, but that's default behavior already (as www-data)
[17:13] <tozen> TuxProbe,sorry type erro
[17:13] <yekoms> i tried the default user, and other users.
[17:14] <jrib> yekoms: tried what as the default user, and other users?
[17:14] <yekoms> i run everything under 'black' as it has no access outside of /www
[17:14] <tozen> TuxProbe, u can choose enviroment in login
[17:14] <yekoms> i used www-data, then selected black. lighttpd runs fine for both, but no pid file.
[17:14] <yekoms> it just creates a dir in /var/run as lighttpd
[17:15] <jrib> yekoms: how did you "select black"?  I'm not sure what you mean
[17:15] <jrib> yekoms: more importantly, did it create a pid file originally?  When it was running as www-data right after install?
[17:15] <skroot> What file is the auto mapping of samba shares stored in?
[17:15] <yekoms> its never created one.
[17:15] <skroot> I set them up via Webmin but it's caused problems
[17:15] <TuxProbe> tozen ah yea got it..
[17:16] <yekoms> as soon as i installed it, i issued 'service lighttpd stop' and it said it closed it, but port :80 was still being used by lighttpd

[17:16] <TuxProbe> for instance, cpu-freq applet would be a nice addition to the indicator area -  anyone know of statuses in any ports of old applet api or something similar into gnome3?

[17:16] <skroot> ThinkT510, thanks for pointing out the obvious and completing aluding to my question, which in the end, had nothing to do with Webmin
