[22:21] <Belial> anyone using the patched nautilus 3.4.2 for  13.04 able to get some quick lists going in unity?
[22:21] <TheLordOfTime> ubuntuaddicted:  yeah, i know apt-cache and apt-get like the back of my hand, the quesiton was about USC because reasons.
[22:22] <TheLordOfTime> ubuntuaddicted:  i ask because USC shows some things *not* in the default repos, so...
[22:22] <madprops> what tool can I use to tweak my multiple monitors?
[22:23] <JayF> On Ubuntu 10.04LTS, if I build a custom kernel module, is there a place that extra modules should go to make sure they load properly?
[22:23] <madprops> I have an intel card
[22:23] <zianya> Dr_willis: hi, did you read my problem? 20m ago?
[22:23] <Dr_willis> zianya,  not really. Im gettint ready to go to work
[22:24] <ctxmen> alphaschwein
[22:24] <Sandy_> Hello. I have installed Ubuntu for the first time ever today. In fact, it's my first contact with any Linux distribution ever. So, naturally I'm stuck. I've installed Ubuntu on a server and after installation & reboot, I get "Input Not Supported." I have attempted to edit a GRUB line to make the default resolution 640*480 after making my way to a shell prompt, as directed by various forums,...
[22:24] <Sandy_> ...only to get an error that the file is read only.  TLDR - I installed Ubuntu and can't do jack because when it boots it says "Input not supported"
[22:26] <Dr_willis> Sandy_,  what kind of 'on a server' do you mean?  Are you saying the Monitor is saying it cant find a resolution to display? You did a server install?
[22:26] <Dr_willis> Sandy_,  there is 'text' option that might also get things going
[22:26] <Sandy_> When I say 'server' I'm referring to the physical server.
[22:26] <compex> what's a good command line music player?
[22:26] <Sandy_> The monitor does display a message that says "Input not supported"
[22:27] <Sandy_> I did do a server install, I selected the LAMP package
[22:27] <Sandy_> How would I access the text option?
[22:27] <Dr_willis> Sandy_,  i would try the nomodeset, and text options
[22:27] <Dr_willis> !text
[22:28] <Dr_willis> change the line in the grub menu (if you can ) to be 'noquiet nosplash text nomodeset'  (thats about all the options i can think of that SHOULD kick it into failsafe text mode)
[22:28] <Sandy_> ok - trying this now
[22:28] <Dr_willis> Sandy_,  you do have some linux experience? im not sure why you are starging with a server install if you dont have some earlier experience
[22:29] <Sandy_> which grub is included in 13.04 server?
[22:29] <Sandy_> grub2?
[22:29] <Dr_willis> grub2 has been the default for a few years now
[22:29] <john__> having trouble getting mythtv started get channel locked signal
[22:29] <bazhang> try #ubuntu-mythtv john__
[22:30] <Navion> Are there any Ubuntu distros for PowerMac that support the embedded audio?
[22:30] <zykotick9> john__: verify you storage directory has Read/Write for other - i had the issue last night ;)
[22:30] <Sandy_> hmmm, pressed shift repeatedly during boot and "Input Not Supported" still came up
[22:31] <Dr_willis> press and HOLD shift. but if grub is unable to  display a proper res. then you wont see grub. There are grub options in its configs to show a 'fail safe text' menuy
[22:31] <Dr_willis> but you might need to use a live cd to get into the sytem and set those options for grub
[22:31] <Dr_willis> or track down a differnt monitor for now and se eif it works with a newer one.
[22:31] <Sandy_> The ony way I can get to anything that allows me to interact with the system is by pressing up/down arrow keys repeatedly with a mash on the enter key sprinkled in there
[22:31] <Sandy_> ok, trying the press & hold
[22:32] <Sandy_> already tried other monitors
[22:32] <marti1125> hi
[22:32] <Dr_willis> if you can get into a console. you can try to set grub t use the  old fashioned text menu mode
[22:32] <marti1125> i would like to install ubuntu  in a laptop  but the windows doesn't detected...
[22:33] <Jordan_U> marti1125: Can you run "sudo parted -l" and pastebin the output?
[22:34] <Dr_willis> Sandy_,  in /etc/default/grub theres a line that says ->  #unvomment to disable graphical terminal.
[22:34] <Dr_willis> #GRUB_TERMINAL=console
[22:34] <Dr_willis> remove that # on the GRUB_TERMINAL line and rerun update-grub and it should use the old text menu modes
[22:35] <marti1125> ok :D
[22:35] <benzrf> all of my packages are up to date, but I still have no sound... my graphical lag is gone though. on the topic of graphics, ctrl-alt-arrows no longer switches workspaces. how can I enable that?
[22:35] <Dr_willis> but you Might need to chroot in/follow the fix grub guides to fix that.
[22:36] <Dr_willis> Sandy_,  if you can get the system to a console. i would suggest installing ssh (if its not allready installed) that way even if the monitor is messed up . you can ssh in and try to fix things
[22:38] <Sandy_> I am in some sort of console
[22:38] <Sandy_> Im in the proper directory
[22:38] <Sandy_>  - /etc/default
[22:39] <Sandy_> so to edit grub, what should I type?
[22:39] <marti1125> uhmm doesn't work.. :(
[22:40] <marti1125> is in livecd
[22:41] <Dr_willis> bbl
[22:45] <Sandy_> ok, so I removed the # from the 640*480 forced graphics mode line which I believe uncomments the setting. Waiting to see if it works
[22:45] <Sandy_> didn't
[22:45] <benzrf> all of my packages are up to date, but I still have no sound... my graphical lag is gone though. on the topic of graphics, ctrl-alt-arrows no longer switches workspaces. how can I enable that?
[22:45] <Sandy_> how do I install ssh?
[22:45] <benzrf> Sandy_: is it not already installed/
[22:46] <zykotick9> Sandy_: "sudo apt-get install ssh" will install both client and server.
[22:47] <Sandy_> ok, trying that
[22:47] <Sandy_> I installed ubuntu 13.04 server w/ LAMP package - if it's in there, then yes. If it's not default, then no
[22:49] <zianya> pls help, I have reinstalled ubuntu like 5 times now
[22:49] <zianya> But my machine still says no operative system found
[22:49] <zianya> and does not boot
[22:50] <zianya> here is a gparted screenshoot, whats wrong? pls http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/43/201305032248481280x800s.png/
[22:50] <Sandy_> zianya - that usually means a master boot record problem
[22:50] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | zianya
[22:51] <zianya> Sandy_: so the iso is wrong?
[22:51] <Sandy_> oh, so you wrote ISO directly to the hard drive?
[22:52] <Sandy_> or extracted it to the hard drive, rather
[22:52] <zipace> that'd be a first one that someone actually tries to flash the disk with the contents of an iso image, haha
[22:52] <bazhang> zianya, how did you write to the media?
[22:53] <zianya> bazhang: I used a usb
[22:53] <zianya> Sandy_:  bazhang  Jordan_U http://pastebin.com/ACE0kdcN
[22:53] <bazhang> zianya, yes thats the media
[22:53] <zianya> I used a usb to install it, indeed i-m using the usb right now in live cd
[22:53] <bazhang> zianya, did you just drag and drop?
[22:54] <zianya> bazhang: used a software to put it in the usb
[22:54] <bazhang> zianya, what software, and did you md5 the iso before
[22:55] <zianya> I have tried ubuntu lubuntu isos 13.04 and 12.10, and I used unetbootin and other software a guys recommended me
[22:55] <zianya> called universal usb installer or something like that
[22:55] <zianya> I am using it right now in live cd
[22:55] <bazhang> zianya, md5 iso? yes or no
[22:55] <zianya> no idea whats that
[22:55] <bazhang> !md5 | zianya
[22:55] <zianya> but I think has something to do to verify the iso
[22:55] <zianya> yeah, I have tried a lot of isos dont think thats the problem
[22:56] <zipace> if liveCD works, then it's relatively safe to assume that the USB stick has been flashed correctly bazhang
[22:56] <zianya> any way I could verify if you want
[22:56] <zianya> zipace: exactly
[22:56] <zipace> zianya: where did you download the iso?
[22:56] <zianya> ubuntu.com
[22:56] <zianya> ubuntu.net
[22:56] <zianya> all official
[22:56] <zipace> which one?
[22:56] <zipace> well fair enough
[22:56] <zianya> I have tried both
[22:56] <zianya>  => No boot loader is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb.
[22:56] <zianya> that appears on the scan
[22:56] <zipace> zianya: /dev/sdb is a USB device, it would be odd if it would have a MBR
[22:57] <zianya> oh, ok, good
[22:57] <Sandy_> zianya - disclaimer - I'm a Linux beginner here for support myself, but a "no os found" message usually indicates the computer found no info in the master boot record, meaning that whatever you did to put an OS on the disk, it didn't write a "MBR" as part of that process
[22:57] <zianya> so whats wrong?
[22:57] <zipace> zianya: how exactly did you install ubuntu?
[22:57] <zykotick9> zipace: assuming /dev/sdb is a USB is a dangerous assumption, my sdb is a SATA HD...
[22:57] <zianya> zipace: with the icon install ubuntu
[22:57] <zianya> and click, yes yes yes next next next
[22:58] <zianya> used the option erase all the disk and install ubuntu
[22:58] <zianya> uhm
[22:58] <zipace> zykotick9: if your HD is external then it's perfectly normal that it is listed as /dev/sdb (think of sdb as "external device", in contrast to an "internal device", ie, internal harddrive)
[22:58] <zianya>  no /sda/ is m usb
[22:58] <zianya> so sdb is my hard drive
[22:58] <zykotick9> zipace: you're wrong in your understanding...
[22:59] <zianya> you guys saw the screenshoot?
[22:59] <zianya> http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/43/201305032248481280x800s.png/
[22:59] <zipace> zykotick9: i might be, hardware isn't my field of knowledge ;-)
[23:00] <Sandy_> zykotick9 - I installed ssh using the sudo apt-get command. Now, how would I go about accessing this system remotely? (that is what SSH is for, right?)
[23:00] <zipace> zianya: i need to correct myself, /dev/sdb seems to be your harddrive, not your USB device
[23:00] <zianya> exactly zipace
[23:00] <zianya> No boot loader is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb
[23:00] <zipace> zianya: that is to say, your HD seems completely empty
[23:00] <zianya> so that-s why i thought that was wrong, but why is ubuntu not installing the mbr
[23:01] <zipace> zianya: again, how did you install ubuntu?
[23:01] <zianya> says used 6.84GB
[23:01] <zianya> zipace: scroll up, I just told you
[23:01] <zipace> doesn't lubuntu ship ubiquity? ubiquity is the interactive installer
[23:01] <observ3r> hi
[23:01] <zipace> zianya: my apologies, i didn't notice it
[23:01] <zianya> I put the ubuntu in the usb, launched the live cd, click on the icon INSTALL ubuntu and click NEXT on every step, used the format all the disk and install ubuntu option
[23:01] <zianya> is ok
[23:02] <zianya> the problem is ubuntu is not writing the mbr, but why
[23:02] <zipace> good question
[23:02] <zianya> and why sdb1 is fat32 and the flag is boot
[23:02] <zianya> that-s not normal?
[23:03] <zipace> zianya: it's definitely not normal that sdb1 is fat32
[23:03] <zipace> it should be ext3 or ext4
[23:03] <Sandy_> I edited grub - I understand that I should now run "update-grub" to have that change take effect. When I type that from host@user it says "grub-mkconfig: You must run this as root"
[23:03] <Sandy_> How to I become root?
[23:03] <zipace> sandeepr: sudo update-grub
[23:04] <Sandy_> ah
[23:04] <zianya> zipace:  so why the hell is doing it??!?!!?
[23:04] <zipace> sorry, Sandy_
[23:04] <Sandy_> lol np
[23:04] <Sandy_> I know a sandeep
[23:04] <zipace> Sandy_: "sudo" temporarily elevates you into root status
[23:04] <zipace> zianya: beats me tbh
[23:04] <zianya> sorry?
[23:05] <zipace> zianya: i said i don't know
[23:05] <zianya> oh
[23:05] <zianya> what can I do?
[23:05] <zipace> zianya: you could try formatting the disk as ext4, and hope for the best
[23:05] <zipace> frankly, i'm puzzled myself here
[23:06] <zianya> zipace: that will simply remove the mbr
[23:06] <zianya> if it was writen as fat32
[23:06] <zipace> zianya: that, and potentially fix disk errors (if there are any)
[23:06] <Sandy_> what tool did you use to make your flash/usb drive bootable?
[23:06] <Sandy_> and did you boot to your usb drive?
[23:06] <zianya> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
[23:07] <zipace> pendrivelinux's universal USB installer is not the source of the problem, i used that one myself successfully many times
[23:08] <Sandy_> zianya - you did boot to the usb drive?
[23:08] <zianya> of course, how else I am in the live cd?
[23:08] <zianya> I removed  that shitty fat32 partition, I think the usb software created it
[23:08] <zianya> I will reboot and try
[23:08] <Sandy_> zianya - sorry, beginner here, don't know what livecd is
[23:09] <zianya> and moved the ext4 as boot
[23:09] <zipace> Sandy_: liveCD is essentially the operating system running from RAM
[23:09] <zianya> lets see
[23:09] <zianya> whish me luck
[23:09] <zipace> !livecd | Sandy_
[23:10] <zipace> zianya: i'll keep my fingers crossed
[23:10] <Sandy_> ah I see thanks
[23:11] <wad> I installed mysql on my laptop, because sometimes I need it. But it's always running. It starts the service by default. I generally turn it off manually (sudo service mysql stop) whenever I boot. Is there a way I can have this service be OFF by default, and require me to start it?
[23:12] <Sandy_> ok, uncommenting the line in grub that allows the system to use 640*480 graphics seems to have done the trick - I am now in a very low-res GNU GRUB menu
[23:12] <marti1125> ok the problem is eufi
[23:12] <zipace> wad: since mysql is a server application, it needs to run in the background to function, so your best bet is to include "service mysql stop" in /etc/profile
[23:12] <zianya_> same
[23:12] <zianya_> did not work
[23:12] <wad> zipace, okay, that sounds good.
[23:13] <zianya_> no operative system
[23:13] <zipace> zianya: very curious
[23:13] <zipace> zianya: you could try formatting your HD as ext4 nonetheless
[23:14] <zipace> :o
[23:14] <harrism> can you help me i need to turn off powersaving
[23:14] <zipace> harrism: for your netbook/notebook?
[23:14] <Sandy_> when I select "Ubuntu" from that menu, I get to a command prompt - how should I install video drivers & access the Ubuntu GUI?
[23:14] <zianya_> zipace: and then?
[23:15] <zipace> zianya_: it might detect and fix disk errors, if there are any. by default the ubuntu installer will format the disk anyway, but maybe something is up with your HD
[23:16] <whjms>
[23:17] <DarkAceLaptop> how do I list all files and folders, and the files and folders inside those folders?
[23:18] <zipace> harrism: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/jupiter-ubuntu-ppa-hardware-and-power.html
[23:18] <Jordan_U> DarkAceLaptop: find /path/to/directory/
[23:18] <Slart> Hello, I'm looking for a simple, lightweight webserver preferably something I can just run from a terminal and it will serve up the files from the current working directory.. I was thinking of doing some web development stuff with jquery and such.. any recommendations? I don't want to move files to some special web-folder like I would have to for apache
[23:18] <DarkAceLaptop> cool
[23:18] <Jordan_U> DarkAceLaptop: Though if you're trying to script something you'll want to know more than that. What is your end goal?
[23:18] <zipace> DarkAceLaptop: "sudo apt-get install tree", ad then "tree -C <directory>"
[23:19] <zianya_> zipace: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/716/201305032317461280x800s.png/
[23:19] <zianya_> done, now?
[23:19] <derp> ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
[23:19] <DarkAceLaptop> I just want to pastebin all the files in my music folder
[23:19] <zipace> zianya_: try installing ubuntu again
[23:19] <th0r> DarkAceLaptop: try 'ls -alR' and see if that does it
[23:20] <zianya_> zipace: with erase disk?
[23:20] <zipace> zianya_: yes
[23:20] <Jordan_U> zianya_: Is this machine configured to boot the hard drive via UEFI or BIOS?
[23:20] <zianya_> bios I guess
[23:21] <zianya_> it is installing
[23:21] <wad> zipace, that doesn't work very well. -_-
[23:21] <zipace> zianya_: did your machine come with windows 8 preinstalled? because in that case, UEFI might be a problem (as Jordan_U said)
[23:21] <Jordan_U> zianya_: If that's the case, then that's the problem. It's booting the Ubuntu installer via UEFI, and thus the installer is configuring the installation to be booted via UEFI.
[23:21] <zianya_> it just created the fat32 partitoin AGAIN
[23:21] <zipace> wad: why not? is mysql still running?
[23:21] <zianya_> zipace: no, vista
[23:22] <wad> zipace, it turns it off. But that /etc/profile is kicked off all the time.
[23:22] <zianya_> Jordan_U: how do I change that_
[23:22] <wad> When a do "sudo -i" for example.
[23:22] <zianya_> or what should I do
[23:23] <wad> zipace: So I get error complaints in bash.
[23:23] <zipace> wad: why do you actually want to stop mysql from being autorun anyway? i'm just being curious, because the mysql server only uses very little resources
[23:23] <wad> I could wrap in an environment variable...
[23:23] <wad> zipace, I've only got 8GB of RAM, and I'm always running out.
[23:23] <wad> So I'm trying to shave off all the resources I can.
[23:23] <zipace> wad: "only" 8GB ram? :-P
[23:24] <zipace> I got 8GB ram, and never had any problems with mysql, or any database server for that matter
[23:24] <zianya_> zipace: installed
[23:24] <ubuntuaddicted> DarkAceLaptop, ls -R /full/path > directory_structure.txt
[23:24] <zianya_> same partitions names, data, flags, all the same
[23:24] <DarkAceLaptop> \o/
[23:24] <ubuntuaddicted> DarkAceLaptop, then you can use pastebinit to upload it straight to pastebin
[23:24] <zipace> wad: are you sure it's not a different program that is hogging all the resources
[23:24] <wad> zipace, I often run three or four instances of two different IDEs. And two virtual machines, one of which runs Oracle. When I run a build, I have to exit a bunch of stuff.
[23:25] <zipace> wad: fair enough, but even in those cases, mysql is quite unlikely to cause performance problems, especially when unused (ie, not active transactions)
[23:25] <zipace> s/not/no/
[23:25] <wad> zipace, yes, it's not mysql that is the hog.  Since I don't always need mysql around, I'm just wondering how to tell the system not to launch it by default on boot.
[23:26] <wad> My laptop is very heavily used.
[23:27] <zipace> wad: well, alright. run 'sudo -c "echo manual >> /etc/init/mysql.override"'
[23:27] <wad> Ah!!
[23:27] <hexacode> hey wad
[23:27] <hexacode> do u use vim
[23:27]  * wad edits mysql.override
[23:28] <wad> Yeah, I'm a vim fan.
[23:28] <hexacode> sudo ls -laR /etc/rc* | vim -
[23:28] <syf> 每次打开无线连接都要输密码，有没有解决办法
[23:28] <hexacode> then do a search on your startup  job
[23:28] <hexacode> in my case it was httpd
[23:28] <hexacode> or apache2
[23:28] <hexacode> i saw which folder it was in
[23:28] <hexacode> and screwed up the permissions
[23:28] <hexacode> i dont think it started then
[23:29] <zianya_> zipace: so_
[23:29] <zipace> !cn | syf
[23:29] <zipace> zianya_: still no luck? :-(
[23:30] <derp> איך אני יכול לקבל עזרה לאובונטו?
[23:30] <zianya_> zipace: well I did what you told me
[23:31] <zianya_> ubuntu created a fat32 partition again as boot
[23:31] <ThePendulum> I am using BURG, and I was wondering if I can still boot into recovery mode if I remove it from the selection list
[23:31] <OerHeks> !hebrew | derp
[23:32] <ThePendulum> Didn't expect there to be a Hebrew channel
[23:32] <zipace> zianya_: that is majorly weird
[23:32] <zipace> zianya_: consider me clueless
[23:32] <zianya_> zipace: check your partitions
[23:32] <zianya_> dont you have any fat32_
[23:33] <zianya_> are you sure?
[23:33] <zipace> zianya_: my partitions are ext4 for ubuntu, and ntfs for windows
[23:33] <zipace> as expected
[23:33] <OerHeks> ThePendulum, as of 10.04 there are 218 languages supported.
[23:33] <zianya_> so wtf?!
[23:33] <zianya_> the linux iso is just wrong
[23:33] <zipace> zianya_: i wouldn't blame the iso
[23:33] <ThePendulum> OerHeks: Kudos!
[23:33] <zipace> zianya_: what harddrive are you using?
[23:34] <zianya_> zipace: I installed windows and works fine
[23:34] <zianya_> so is not the hard drive
[23:35] <zipace> zianya_: alright, one last thing you might try
[23:35] <lenz> hey guys
[23:35] <zianya_> other distro
[23:35] <zianya_> Im downloading debian right now
[23:35] <ChuckNorrisInmor> aloh :P
[23:35] <lenz> whats you issue zianya?
[23:35] <Jordan_U> zianya_: When you installed Windows, did it install via UEFI or via BIOS?
[23:35] <zianya_> Jordan_U:  no damn idea what uefi is
[23:36] <zianya_> It just booted
[23:36] <zipace> zianya_: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb
[23:36] <ChuckNorrisInmor> mmm... how can i open a .cdr file ? please help me -.-
[23:36] <ChuckNorrisInmor> i meant corel draw's files
[23:36] <Jordan_U> !uefi | zianya_
[23:37] <lenz> ChuckNorrisInmor is it a diskimage?
[23:37] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: sudo apt-get install python-uniconvertor && uniconverter file.cdr file.svg
[23:37] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: then, open the svg file with inkscape
[23:37] <ChuckNorrisInmor> lenz: nop. .cdr is the extention for corel draw's files
[23:37] <Jordan_U> zianya_: Did the Windows installation use GPT for the partition table and create a fat32 partition (the EFI System Partition)?
[23:38] <OerHeks> ChuckNorrisInmor, you can open it in inkscape
[23:38] <zianya_> no damn idea
[23:38] <zipace> zianya_: if you want to use debian instead, then it might be worth a try, though i don't think it would really be any different if the root of the problem is your hardware
[23:38] <ChuckNorrisInmor> OerHeks: nope, Inkscape doesn't work
[23:38] <mzaza> has anyone experience slow performance on desktop when trying to mark shortcuts on desktop or opening nautilus?
[23:39] <ChuckNorrisInmor> it only open come old versions .cdr files but not the most resents =(
[23:39] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: have you tried the command i gave you?
[23:39] <OerHeks> export the files as .svg is the old way
[23:40] <ChuckNorrisInmor> zipace: yes, uniconvertor has some issues
[23:40] <ChuckNorrisInmor> has issues with pytohn 2.7 i think
[23:40] <zianya_> zipace: Path `/boot/grub' is not readable by GRUB on boot. Installation is impossible. Aborting.
[23:40] <ChuckNorrisInmor> doesn't either :P
[23:40] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: which ones? pastebin the error
[23:41] <zipace> zipace: did you use sudo?
[23:41] <ChuckNorrisInmor> ẁell i am helping a user in a chatango chat -.- zipace but... let me install uniconvertor so i can give you the outputs
[23:42] <Jordan_U> zianya_: Your Ubuntu LiveUSB currently has a directory named "efi", if you rename that directory "disabled-efi" then your computer won't try to boot it via UEFI, and thus Ubuntu's installer will not try to install a UEFI system.
[23:44] <lenz> What's the non-support chitchat ubuntu channel?
[23:44]  * r00t-err0r AFK
[23:44] <mzaza> Could the performance of nautilus while opening be affected by video driver?
[23:44] <wilee-nilee> lenz,  #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:44] <lenz> mzaza I do think so, yes.
[23:44] <Jordan_U> zianya_: You can also look at your motherboard's documentation to check how to enable/disable UEFI. Right now (for whatever reason) it appears (though I don't have enough info to say for sure) that your computer is configured to boot USB drives via UEFI and internal drives via BIOS, which is breaking things (and is very odd).
[23:44] <lenz> thanks wilee-nilee
[23:44] <wilee-nilee> np
[23:45] <mzaza> lenz: I have hybrid graphics laptop. So shouldn't it work fine if I use the built in graphics card?
[23:46] <ChuckNorrisInmor> zipace: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5630742/
[23:46] <zipace> mzaza: technically that would only affect nautilus if you use desktop effects
[23:46] <zipace> mzaza: try disabling them
[23:47] <mzaza> zipace: how?
[23:47] <kyconquers> how can I set the default group of all newly created file of a user?
[23:48] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: welp, looks like uniconverter hasn't been taken care of by the maintainer... if you want to help, you can file a bug by running the command "ubuntu-bug uniconverter" which will take you through the necessary steps (filing bugs REALLY does help, and you're doing everyone a bug favour!)
[23:48] <zipace> s/bug/big/
[23:48] <kyconquers> I know this does not have to do with the umask, and I can do it on a directory basis with an acl, but I need to do it on the user level.
[23:49] <rmabuntu> Can someone help me?
[23:49] <hachre> !ask
[23:49] <ChuckNorrisInmor> zipace: ok thx i'll do it
[23:49] <zipace> mzaza: i wish I knew, I'm using KDE where I can simply use ctrl+F12
[23:50] <zipace> !effects | mzaza
[23:51] <rmabuntu> I have recently installed Ubuntu 13.04 in a VirtualMachine and installed the new friends app. Once I opened it, it displayed black. I waited a few minutes but nothing happened. Can someone help me?
[23:51] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: also, you could try "convert file.cdr file.svg", after installing imagemagick (sudo apt-get install imagemagick)
[23:52] <meleca> i wanna fuck you
[23:52] <meleca> suck my huge cock
[23:52] <wheeler_> hey anyone can help me?!
[23:53] <xupeta> why
[23:53] <MonkeyDust> wheeler_  if you're sweet
[23:53] <ChuckNorrisInmor> oh! imagemagick i didn't know that imagemagick cloud convert .cdr files, could you give me the command? -.-
[23:53] <xupeta> why kick me
[23:53] <Pici> !guidelines > xupeta
[23:53] <ChuckNorrisInmor> oh! i didn't read the whole sentence sry :P
[23:54] <wheeler_> i need the german support for studio ubuntu... my englisch is not the best^
[23:54] <anew> how can i search all files for a line of text, is this possible ?
[23:54] <zipace> !de | wheeler_
[23:54] <MonkeyDust> !de
[23:54] <xupeta> suck me
[23:54] <yofun> hello im trying to run sudo badblocks -o badblocks_list -s -v -w -t 0xAA  /dev/sda but it says /dev/sda is apparently in use by the system; it's not safe to run badblocks! (im in a live session)
[23:54] <zipace> jesus, some people simply have no manners
[23:55] <yofun> hello im trying to run sudo badblocks -o badblocks_list -s -v -w -t 0xAA  /dev/sda but it says /dev/sda is apparently in use by the system; it's not safe to run badblocks! (im in a live session)
[23:55] <MonkeyDust> zipace  it's called 'teenager'
[23:55] <yofun> haha
[23:55] <zipace> MonkeyDust: haha, i guess so :-)
[23:55] <yofun> anybody?
[23:55] <ChuckNorrisInmor> zipace: i am on it, thx dude
[23:56] <zipace> ChuckNorrisInmor: you're welcome! report back, i'm curious if it actually works (hard to believe, but I actually have a copy of coreldraw sitting on my desk)
[23:56] <yofun> hello im trying to run sudo badblocks -o badblocks_list -s -v -w -t 0xAA  /dev/sda but it says /dev/sda is apparently in use by the system; it's not safe to run badblocks! (im in a live session) anyone know how to fix?
[23:57] <ChuckNorrisInmor> ok
[23:57] <Jordan_U> yofun: Have you checked that no partitions on /dev/sda are mounted (or in use as swap)?
[23:57] <zipace> yofun: if /dev/sda is where your operating system resides, then it cannot be scanned as it is mounted (necessary in order to use it)
[23:57] <zipace> yofun: instead, use a livecd to check your harddrives
[23:57] <yofun> no im on a  live session (usb stick)
[23:58] <Dayofswords> yofun: is it mounted in any way? Try umount /dev/sda
[23:58] <zipace> yofun: in that case, unmount /dev/sda first
[23:58] <yofun> and i checked mount but /dev/sda is not mounted
[23:58] <zipace> yofun: what does "mount | grep /dev/sda" say?
[23:59] <yofun> zipace:  nothing :/
[23:59] <Jordan_U> yofun: Please pastebin the output of "cat /proc/mounts" and "swapon -s".
[23:59] <zipace> what Jordan_U  said ;-)


[03:20] <mimi_> With a dual boot laptop (win7 and Linux mint11) I want to update/change mint to latest ubuntu ...can I install that in the root partition without disturbing the separate data partition?
[03:22] <stlsaint> mimi_: does your /data only maintain non os specific stuff
[03:22] <stlsaint> IE: no web browser configs, profile settings etc
[03:22] <stlsaint> only like music, pics, docs, etc?
[03:23] <mimi_> stlsaint: as far as I know it's just data ...docs etc.  ....but most of that stuff I keep on the ntfs partition anyway
[03:23] <stlsaint> mimi_: you should be fine. Long as you tell ubuntu not to touch the /data
[03:23] <stlsaint> mimi_: only use (/) root
[03:23] <mimi_> stlsaint: ok, thanks
[06:18] <pskeshu> I need help
[06:18] <pskeshu> when I update, I get the following error

[12:56] <bmtahimik> Hi
[13:02] <nothingspecial> hello bmtahimik
[13:17] <nothingspecial> hi bmtahimik
[13:17] <nothingspecial> what's the problem with your laptop ?
[13:17] <bmtahimik> Hello nothingspecial
[13:19] <bmtahimik> Alright. So I have been using Win7 and decided earlier to dual boot it to have Ubuntu 12.04. I installed Ubuntu with no problems, booted to Ubuntu . I can see and open the files I have in drive C but not the files I have in the D drive
[13:19] <nothingspecial> Are you sure you didn't install Ubuntu to the D drive?
[13:19] <nothingspecial> or can you see it?
[13:22] <hobgoblin> look in places > removable drives
[13:26] <nothingspecial> welcome back bmtahimik
[13:26] <bmtahimik> I dont know whats going on but after a while I cannot see or post any new messages in this room
[13:26] <bmtahimik> fml
[13:27] <hobgoblin> you are timing out :)
[13:27] <nothingspecial> Is this a wubi install ?
[13:27] <bmtahimik> yes it was
[13:28] <bmtahimik> probably has something to do with my wifi
[13:28] <hobgoblin> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_do_I_access_the_Windows_drives.3F
[13:28] <hobgoblin> try that first bmtahimik
[13:28] <bmtahimik> Thanks Ill check the link out
[13:33] <bmtahimik> Thanks a lot hobgoblin
[13:33] <bmtahimik> I feel so stupid right now. lol
[13:33] <hobgoblin> :)
[13:34] <hobgoblin> there are no stupid questions bmtahimik
[13:35] <bmtahimik> I believe that as well
[13:35] <bmtahimik> Maybe I was just too excited to make this work.hehehe
[13:35] <bmtahimik> Thanks!
[13:36] <bmtahimik> So having Wubi is just like running Ubuntu in lets say Oracles Virtual Box?
[13:36] <bmtahimik> and it wont work if Windows were to be uninstalled?
[13:36] <hobgoblin> yep
[13:37] <hobgoblin> it's not quite like vbox though
[13:38] <bmtahimik> aha so technically i dont have a dual boot notebook.  :(
[13:39] <bmtahimik> Virtually dual booted, probably.hehe
[13:41] <bmtahimik> How different is using wubi from REALLY running Ubuntu on your PC?
[13:43] <hobgoblin> some find wubi to be slower
[13:45] <hobgoblin> I installed it once and used it for a day or so - just to see
[13:45] <bmtahimik> there is some lag when switching between windows...
[13:45] <hobgoblin> I guess it could be useful fro people not too sure about partitioning
[13:46] <bmtahimik> that what I noticed after using it for a couple of hours now
[13:46] <bmtahimik> but all in all Im liking the experience
[13:46] <hobgoblin> see if there are drivers for graphics in additional drivers
[13:46] <hobgoblin> cool
[13:46] <bmtahimik> There is just a lot to get used to, like where can I find device manager where I can see all the devices
[13:47] <hobgoblin> you'd need to install something if you want a gui
[13:53] <bmtahimik> it timed out again
[13:53] <bmtahimik> anything you can recommend to get a GUI for the devices?
[13:53] <bmtahimik> I mean device manager?
[13:57] <hobgoblin> hang on a moment
[13:57] <bmtahimik> Thanks!
[13:59] <hobgoblin> there are a few - but they don't work like windows ones do - you'll not be able to change them/install/ etc
[14:00] <hobgoblin> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1702497
[14:01] <hobgoblin> mmm - can't even see it in the repos lol
[14:02] <hobgoblin> mostly it is done with commands in a terminal - lspci lists PCI devices lsusb USB etc
[14:03] <hobgoblin> sysinfo will show you system info
[14:11] <bmtahimik> Ill try that out
[14:11] <bmtahimik> Thanks
[14:12] <hobgoblin> k
[14:12] <hobgoblin> rather long time since I looked at system stuff the old way :)
[14:19] <matt___> ok so i installed ubuntu on my laptop and when it was installing i got an error that said input/ output error during write on /dev/sda i tried a bunch of things and eventually had to click ignore. the installation had no other problems and i restarted the computer. i try to boot up my computer and its a purple screeen with a few options that say boot linux 3.0.0- 12 generic. boot recovery and then previouse linux versions.
[14:21] <matt___> any help?

[19:14] <ntwrk_keith> Hello... So I have my hp PSC 1315v shared across the network from my ubuntu server for printing, but I'd like to do the same thing with the scanner? Anyone know if this is easy or could point me in the right direction?
[19:15] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: ouch, network scanner...hrm
[19:15] <stlsaint> kitties: o/
[19:15] <kitties> hi stlsaint
[19:15] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: hrm, i would assume the same way you configure the printer. give it an ip and edit share permissions.
[19:16] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: what have you tried thus far?
[19:16] <stlsaint> kitties: question asked right before you joined:
[19:16] <stlsaint> 14:14 < ntwrk_keith> Hello... So I have my hp PSC 1315v shared across the network from my ubuntu server for printing, but I'd like to do the same thing with  the scanner? Anyone know if this is easy or could point me in the right direction?
[19:17] <ntwrk_keith> stlsaint, honestly nothing. I am new to linux so I wasnt sure if you had to do something different. I know my Windows 7 desktop doesnt see the scanner
[19:17] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: try that, install scanner drivers, network it and connect
[19:17] <ntwrk_keith> well it's USB connected to my ubuntu server at the moment
[19:18] <ntwrk_keith> so I know I can reach it for printing
[19:18] <ntwrk_keith> over the network
[19:18] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: best method is to make it also networked with its own IP. (IME
[19:18] <stlsaint> )
[19:19] <ntwrk_keith> It doesnt have an ethernet port so that's impossible
[19:19] <stlsaint> ouch
[19:19] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: hrm, im not sure how you network an scanner with no nic
[19:19] <stlsaint> sure there is a way that google has but not this guy
[19:19]  * stlsaint <---
[19:21] <ntwrk_keith> well thanks anyway stlsaint
[19:21] <stlsaint> o/


[05:59] <lnxkde> happy new year people
[07:01] <nixternal> happy new year everyone (just hit in chicago and im sick as a dog) :(
[07:02] <crimsun> hope you feel better soon.
[07:03] <nixternal> thank you sir
[07:04] <nixternal> it is safer right here at the puter then it is out there
[07:04] <crimsun> understandably
[07:04] <nixternal> we are chilling, watchin' some tv, listening to the scanner, and eatin' :)
[07:04] <crimsun> I'm triaging bugs and working through merges.
[07:05] <nixternal> hehe
[07:05] <nixternal> i did some boogs earlier
[07:08] <Jucato> happy new year crimsun, nixternal!
[07:09] <crimsun> same to you, Jucato
[07:11] <nixternal> happy new year Jucato
[07:18] <crimsun> I always dreamed of spending NYE triaging ALSA bugs...
[07:18] <Jucato> :O
[12:23] <ThomasZ> Hiya; is there a way to convince the edgy (GUI) installer to use the partition table I created outside the installer?
[12:24] <ThomasZ> It seems to not allow me to install with a self-formatted reiserFS partition :/
[12:55] <Riddell> ThomasZ: GUI installer?  just do manual partitioning and it should let you do whatever you want
[12:55] <Riddell> skip past qtparted through, it's crap
[12:56] <ThomasZ> Riddell: well, I did that when I installed dapper; but I can't do that anymore in edgy
[12:56] <Riddell> why not?
[12:57] <ThomasZ> Riddell: if I try the 'Prepare mount points' screen will refuse to let me go to the next screen as long as I don't select a partition that is non-reiserfs.
[12:57] <ThomasZ> Riddell: it says that I didn't select a root partition. But I did. And when I go back and reformat that root partition as ext3; then it works.
[12:58] <ThomasZ> Riddell: seems its because it forces a reformat. So it needs a known filesystem.
[12:58] <ThomasZ> not sure why it _must_ format...
[12:59] <Riddell> mm, yes, it does like it to be formatted right enough
[12:59] <Riddell> that'll change in feisty
[01:00] <ThomasZ> That would be much welcomed :)
[01:01] <Riddell> you can use the alternate installed in the mean time
[01:01] <Riddell> s/installed/installer/
[01:01] <ThomasZ> is it on the cd?
[01:04] <ThomasZ> ugh; it mounts the reiserFS filesystems as 'notail' :(
[01:07] <Riddell> the alternate installer is on a different CD
[01:07] <ThomasZ> ok. my cdwriter doesn't work anymore (on laptop) since I upgraded from daper to edgy; so I'll try my moving-around plan.
[01:24] <mhb> good afternoon everyone
[01:24] <Jucato> hi mhb, happy new year :)
[01:25] <mhb> thanks Jucato, happy new year to you too
[01:26] <mhb> Does anyone know where you can modify the volume settings pop-up that appears when you push the volume-up/volume-down keys on a laptop?
[01:27] <mhb> I made pictures :o)
[01:27] <mhb> http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/6265/kubuntufh0.png <-- current state in Kubuntu
[01:27] <Jucato> I wonder if you could have those popups without kmilo...
[01:27] <mhb> http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/6265/kubuntufh0.png <-- current state in Ubuntu
[01:27] <mhb> sorry
[01:27] <mhb> http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/5797/ubuntuqr7.png <-- Ubuntu
[01:28] <ThomasZ> Riddell: reported #77602
[01:29] <ThomasZ> mhb: I think its a screen from the kmix/gnome-mix apps..
[01:30] <mhb> If you can take a look at those two screenshots you'll see that the Ubuntu one is smaller (thus unobtrusive) and fits more in the environment
[01:31] <mhb> ThomasZ: I can't find any gnome-mix, though.
[01:31] <ThomasZ> mhb: different desktop environments different opinions.  I rather like the kde version.  Its only on screen for a split second and it being rather big is really helpful.
[01:31] <ThomasZ> I have not started gnome is many years. No clue what software handles it there.
[01:32] <Jucato> mhb: afaik it's KMilo that handles that OSD for KDE
[01:33] <mhb> Jucato, ThomasZ : thanks for the hints
[01:34] <fdoving> mhb: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuLaptopButtons
[01:36] <mhb> fdoving: thanks, I can never find the right spec :o)
[01:37] <Jucato> does anyone know of a doc or wiki that explains what the benefits of USplash are? like, why it was made instead of using something like splashy or fbsplash?
[01:55] <ThomasZ> re;  seems kde-edu has broken packages in edgy.
[01:55] <ThomasZ> blinken depends on ttf-sjfonts (which is a virtual package)
[01:57] <ThomasZ> and libkiten1 depends on edict which is a virtual package.
[01:59] <mhb> okay, I read the KubuntuLaptopButtons spec and some of the code. From what I understand, it is possible to modify the UI (after all, why not). The question is: Do we want to make it fit more into the environment or do we want to leave it as-is?
[02:00] <ThomasZ> grml; and when I get it to install it fails on ttf-distin with script errors.  Are you guys doing any checks before you upload packages! :/
[02:03] <mhb> ThomasZ: all of the packages mentioned by you install fine on my Feisty machine. Are you 100% sure the devs broke that? Could it not be a fault of your local repository mirror perhaps?
[02:03] <ThomasZ> mhb: I installed edgy 5 minutes ago
[02:05] <mhb> No CIDSupplement specified for Gulim-Regular, defaulting to 0. <-- this is a message I get after installing ttf-sjfonts, but it's not a critical error
[02:06] <mhb> hi abattoir, happy new year ... have you pushed the stuff yet (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) ?
[02:06] <abattoir> hello mhb, you too...
[02:06] <Jucato> lol
[02:06] <Jucato> oops...
[02:06] <abattoir> actually Happy new year to everyone here :)
[02:06] <abattoir> (those who celebrate it now)
[02:07] <ThomasZ> Ah, I see the problem. It got stuff from the kde355 dir Riddell put up; which fails like I pointed out.  But it works fine if I edit my sources to include universe multiverse.
[02:07] <Jucato> hm... doesn't Edgy already come with KDE 3.5.5?
[02:09] <ThomasZ> yes.  I was confused since it has a really old koffice, and I added both that and the kde rule to my apt source.
[02:10] <ThomasZ> maybe the deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-355 edgy main  should be taken offline :)
[02:11] <Jucato> :)
[02:15] <mhb> Riddell: I think discussing it at the meeting might be a good idea but you're the BDFL here, so it's you who decides that... (The question was: "Do we want to make KMilo volume pop-ups fit more into the environment or do we want to leave them as-is?")
[02:18] <Riddell> mhb: if someone is willing to do the work for a nicer kmilo theme, I'm all for it
[02:20] <ThomasZ> define 'nicer' ;)
[02:21] <Jucato> one that doesn't eat humans...
[02:22] <mhb> Riddell: I might find the time for that, but (I guess) it's not a bad idea to discuss what it should look like...
[02:26] <Riddell> some mockups would be a very good idea
[02:31] <ThomasZ> some semi transparant text which resemble on-screen-display from TV might be nice. As long as it stayes pretty big and not as tiny as that gnome example.
[02:32] <fdoving> ThomasZ: something like katapult?
[02:33] <mhb> Riddell: okay, I'll make some. When will the next meeting take place? This month?
[02:33] <ThomasZ> fdoving: no; with semi transparant I don't mean non-square.  But really see-though. Just being subtle.
[02:33] <Riddell> yeah, would should organise one for next week
[02:34] <fdoving> ThomasZ: yes, like katapult?
[02:35] <ThomasZ> fdoving: ah; I see that the one in edgy looks a bit nicer than the one in dapper.
[02:35] <ThomasZ> fdoving: well, maybe.  I was more thinking about not having a window. Just big text.
[02:36] <ThomasZ> heh, good thing I have a new install; didn't do a apt-get remove katapult yet ;)
[02:36] <fdoving> i'd like it configurable.
[02:37] <fdoving> I have a slow computer, i don't like fancy transparent stuff, so i prefer the one we have, or something similar.
[02:37] <ThomasZ> true; I think the current one is great. I see no reason at all to change it.
[03:17] <ThomasZ> hmm; booting as single user gives me a read only root filesystem. With only errors when I try to remount it readwrite. In other words; useless.
[03:19] <fdoving> what errors?
[03:20] <ThomasZ> it says already mounted. (and mount indeed states its mounted rw). But I can't write anywhere.
[03:21] <fdoving> sounds like a broken filesystem.
[03:22] <ThomasZ> without any messages in my logs? I kind of doubt that.
[03:24] <fdoving> if mount says it's mounted rw it is mounted rw. if you can't write, it's broken.
[03:25] <fdoving> or something, is very broken.
[03:25] <ThomasZ> thats not true; mount just reads /etc/mtab.  Which may not be correct (because its not writable, for intance ;)
[03:25] <fdoving> you can always remount ro and remount rw again.
[03:25] <ThomasZ> fsck returned no errors.
[03:27] <ThomasZ> ok. writing works fine from the cd. Lets see what a reboot does.
[03:29] <ThomasZ> lol; for the first time I actually saw that there are really small and dark-blue text when I reboot the cd asking me to press enter. (I was getting annoyed I had to press the reboot button so often already).
[03:29] <ThomasZ> very bad choice of color, guys.

[05:29] <nixternal> boo
[05:33] <bddebian> aaahhh
[10:24] <neoncode> Sorry if I'm asking this in the wrong channel, but do all the scripts in /etc/init.d/ run on startup? Or do they do something else?
[10:26] <fdoving> neoncode: no, they are not. the runlevels defines what is started and what's not. the default runlevel is 2. /etc/rc2.d/ holds the files that control what is started/stopped in runlevel 2.
[10:27] <neoncode> So, what's init.d for?
[10:27] <fdoving> it holds the scripts
[10:28] <neoncode> Ohhh... I see.. thanks
[10:30] <fdoving> in /etc/rc2.d/ you find S10sysklogd, that means start sysklogd, the number is used to select what is started first. lowest first.
[10:31] <fdoving> K means kill, or stop.
[10:32] <fdoving> so S10sysklogd will be the same as /etc/init.d/sysklogd start.
[10:32] <fdoving> K20ssh will be the same as /etc/init.d/ssh stop.

[04:48] <blackholejAH> hey guys
[04:48] <blackholejAH> something to report with kubuntu [I absolutely LOVE 15.10] but something weird happened
[04:49] <blackholejAH> when I turn it off, and try to turn it back on [I had to reinstall ubuntu, a very long process, than kubuntu again because of this o_O]
[04:50] <blackholejAH> it wouldn't automatically log me back in, it was permanently locked on a black screen
[04:51] <blackholejAH> it seems to be fine if i just restart it, but i really don't feel like shutting down ever again now >->
[04:51] <blackholejAH> plus can you add a feature to auto hide the default bars, plus make it so you can customize the different things on the part with the time and suck
[04:51] <blackholejAH> such*
[04:54] <blackholejAH> no one here?

[07:16] <ThreeAngels> Hi. What to do when software manager does not start even after you put in the password?
[07:17] <soee> try running it from Terminal and check errors
[07:23] <ThreeAngels> soee: Can you tell me what I should write in terminal?

[09:48] <Chronotoss> Hey guys, Real quick, best package to use for an equalizer, hopefully system wide?
[09:50] <Chronotoss> I know K uses gstreamer, just thinking that the standard ubuntu pulse EQ may not be the best to use.
[10:05] <kais3n> Hello
[10:07] <kais3n> I'm not sure if I'm on the right channel. But I have problems with installing Kubuntu 15.10 in a Virtual Box. As soon as I install the guest additions after a reboot the menu bar disapear and I didn't see any windows.
[10:08] <kais3n> Virtualbox Version is 5.0.10
[10:09] <soee> maybe it installs drivers that do now work well with VB, i suggest to play a bit with VB setting (acceleration etc.)
[10:10] <kais3n> Ok I see what i can find there
[10:15] <Chronotoss> Any one have any info on a good system wide equalizer?
[10:15] <soee> equlizer?
[10:15] <gribs> Hello, I am looking for help. I am usind MDM as desktop manager. May main DE is kde. Recently I've decided to try enlightenment, so I've installed it from ppa https://launchpad.net/~niko2040/+archive/ubuntu/e19. I've tried to change de session in mdm to enlightenment but it did not work: when I've entered my pass and pressed enter session in greater was chenged to kde and kde was loaded. So I've used mdmconfig to change default
[10:15] <gribs> session to enlightenment. Problem is that now I can not revert it back and load kde from mdm: every time when I choose kde or default in greeter it changes it to enlightenment when I hit enter. Also when I use mdm to change default DE it does not work, it keeps loading enlightenment. I've tried to edit /etc/mdm/mdm.conf but it does not work neither. Could anyone help me to envestigate this problem and make kde default de again?
[10:21] <kais3n> Thanks Soee, deaktivating 3D support bring KDE back to work.
[10:21] <soee> :)
[10:25] <Chronotoss> soee: Yes just like a 10 band to tweak the trebble and base slightly
[10:26] <soee> Chronotoss: sorry i do not know such
[10:26] <g0g0boy> Hi in need of assistance regarding kernel updates
[10:27] <Chronotoss> soee: Do you know if GStreamer uses a Pulse or ALSA base? That would be helpfull in research.
[10:28] <soee> i think Pulse, but im not 100% sure
[10:28] <soee> g0g0boy: what is the problem ?
[10:28] <g0g0boy> says some items have dependancies and to try running apt-get -f install
[10:28] <g0g0boy> tried apt-get -f install then tells me that my /boot is full
[10:28] <soee> did you run updates or did manual installation ?
[10:29] <Chronotoss> soee: tyty, if anyone else could help or have any thing to point me towards please do!
[10:29] <lordievader> Chronotoss: Pulseaudio had one, not sure if it is still in use/available
[10:29] <g0g0boy> I then try to remove old kernels built up over time using udo apt-get purge -y linux-headers-xxxxxx
[10:29] <g0g0boy> which then tells me again that there are depnacies, I keep going around in circles
[10:29] <soee> g0g0boy: maybe try asking on #ubuntu-kernel
[10:30] <soee> there are kernel packagers so they might help you
[10:30] <Chronotoss> lordievader: I've found that one but I am unsure if GStreamer uses Pulse as on the website I only see metion to ALSA
[10:30] <g0g0boy> thanks soee, will try there if no help here  :)
[10:31] <soee> Chronotoss:
[10:31] <soee> http://askubuntu.com/questions/72679/is-there-any-sound-enhancers-equalizer
[10:32] <lordievader> Chronotoss: Mostlikely it uses alsa through pulse ;)
[10:33] <Chronotoss> Ahh! so either or shuold work then. Thank you both!
[10:34] <Lara> hello
[10:34] <Lara> i'm new in linux world
[10:35] <Guest90124> can anyone tell me what's the difference between Ubuntu and Kubuntu
[10:35] <Guest90124> ??
[10:35] <soee> hiho
[10:35] <soee> Guest90124: it uses different Desktop Environment
[10:35] <Guest90124> does Kubuntu has Java ?
[10:35] <soee> Ubuntu Uses Unity while Kubuntu Plasma Desktop
[10:36] <soee> if nto you can install it :)
[10:36] <Guest90124> does Java and Mp3s work in Kubuntu as in Ubuntu ?
[10:37] <soee> yes
[10:37] <Guest90124> so, the only difference is the desktop "appearance"  ?
[10:37] <soee> for some media formats support  you might need to install kubuntu-restricted-extras package
[10:37] <kais3n> Visualy yes, but KDE is not based on GTK
[10:37] <soee> well yes, Kubuntu is build on top of Ubuntu
[10:38] <Guest90124> mmmhhhh
[10:39] <PowerKiller> MP3 -> dead
[10:39] <Guest90124> are the packages extensions like ubuntu? example .tar
[10:39] <PowerKiller> MP3 -> closed-source, patented
[10:39] <Guest90124> powerkiller, but ubuntu runs mp3s files
[10:40] <PowerKiller> weird, it's GNU/Linux, son
[10:40] <PowerKiller> We are united only for GNU/Linux, Kubuntu/Ubuntu isn't another distro. with another kernel
[10:40] <soee> Guest90124: This is how Kubuntu looks atm. on development version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wFTo34mCj0
[10:40] <PowerKiller> :C I hate closed-source stuff
[10:40] <soee> Guest90124: and this is Unity (ubuntu ): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoeCcCQuJrM
[10:40] <PowerKiller> It's all Linux, all Linux is all Linux
[10:40] <PowerKiller> all GNU distros include gnu tar
[10:40] <Guest90124> soee, i'll have a look
[10:40] <PowerKiller> which can extract tar
[10:41] <Guest90124> powerkiller, but ubuntu runs mp3, my friend explained me about it but i cant remember hahaha
[10:42] <Chronotoss> The Pulse-EQ by webupd8 works great so far! TYTY to you both ^^
[10:42] <Guest90124> ok guys, thank you for your help
[10:42] <Guest90124> i'll try kubuntu someday
[10:42] <Guest90124> byes
[10:46] <eeos> hi everybody! I have installed Kubuntu 15.10 but it is a bloodbath .... unless I spend the next 5 days filing bugs instead of working ....
[10:46] <eeos> The dmesg is full of errors, plasma crashes a couple of times  a day .... has anyone else had th same experience?
[10:47] <eeos> I have NVIDIA 840 with fall back on integrated Intel card
[10:48] <eeos> I have currently instlled the recommended nvidia driver (352), but it des not seem to solve the problem#
[10:49] <soee> hi eeos
[10:49] <eeos> and finally I keep getting [drm:intel_pipe_config_compare [i915]] *ERROR* mismatch in ips_enabled (expected 1, found 0)
[10:49] <soee> did you enabled backports ppa and upgraded Plasma ?
[10:49] <eeos> yes
[10:49] <eeos> wait .... do you mean updated using the usual update procedure? or really make an upgrade?
[10:49] <soee> ok, i had some problems running 352 driver - i couldn;t switch profile there to nvidia
[10:50] <soee> eeos: well add ppa and run full-upgrade
[10:51] <eeos> do you mean the archive ubuntu backport?
[10:51] <soee> do you have this ppa enabled: ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports ?
[10:53] <eeos> in other software?
[10:53] <soee> yes should be listed on sources list
[10:54] <eeos> I have http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-backports
[10:55] <soee> ok, type in kruner: About
[10:55] <soee> and see what Plasma version it shows
[11:00] <lordievader> Hehe, soee and eeos are a palindrome ;)
[11:00] <lordievader> No, I do not mean palindrome, I mean the one is backwards of the other...
[11:00] <soee> -.-
[11:19] <eeos> soee: 5.4.2
[11:19] <eeos> (sorry phone)
[11:19] <eeos> soee: 64bit
[11:20] <soee> well it shoudl be 5.4.3 if you have backports enabled
[11:31] <eeos> soee: is that more stable?
[11:32] <eeos> soee: and does it solve the [drm:intel_pipe_config_compare [i915]] *ERROR* mismatch in ips_enabled (expected 1, found 0)
[11:32] <soee> i haven't seen this error
[11:33] <soee> eeos: have you seen http://askubuntu.com/questions/712003/drm-intel-pipe-config-compare-mismatch-in-ips-enabled-expected-1-found-0 ?
[11:34] <soee> and this is not Kubuntu fault directly, but might has something to do with Kernel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1492764
[11:34] <soee> eeos: can you try newver nvidia driver maybe ?
[11:36] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:14] <eeos> soee: yes I did see that, but does not solve the problem
[12:26] <kais3n> I have one more question, but not related to virtual box :-)
[12:27] <kais3n> "normally" it should be possible to switch between diffrent windows of one application with the key command ALT+'KeyOverTap' but on my Kubuntu 15.10 it didn't
[12:29] <kais3n> The Key is set under the settings short keys but without function. If I remove the keys I cannot set the combination ALT+'KeyOverTap' anymore. Is there a config file where I can do that?
[12:29] <soee> ALT + TAB does not work ?
[12:30] <soee> System Settings -> Shortcuts this is wehere you can manage all shortcuts
[12:30] <kais3n> ALT+TAB Works but switch between all Windows of all Applications
[12:31] <kais3n> I want to switch only between the windows of one application
[12:31] <soee> ah, sorry :)
[12:45] <marcosRz> Hi, recently I have been facing random black screen at my Kubuntu 14.04. It works flawless for months, but sometimes there is just a black screen. I try going to other ttys and restarting lightdm, but no lock. Eventually I restart and everything works fine. So, is there any way to fix this issue without restarting the system? PS: I'm using an intel driver.
[12:49] <eeos> marcosRz: just to know, if you look at dmesg, do you see [drm:intel_pipe_config_compare [i915]] *ERROR* mismatch in ips_enabled (expected 1, found 0)"
[12:49] <eeos> marcosRz: ?
[12:50] <marcosRz> Hm
[12:52] <marcosRz> As far as I remember there was no log output in the tty screen. But I did not check dmesg. Going to do that now
[12:55] <marcosRz> this is my dmesg | grep i915 output http://pastebin.com/ikq8ZgDe
[13:04] <eeos> marcosRz: yu seem to have problems too
[16:55] <Leandronn> Hi everyone, I need some help with Kubuntu 15.10. I've bought an HP ENVY 15t-Q400 CTO Energy Star laptop
[16:55] <Leandronn> everything works fine but audio. It comes with Bang&Olufsen speakers.
[16:56] <Leandronn> Cannot make them properly work. It comes with default values.
[16:56] <Leandronn> Any help would be appreciated
[17:01] <dark-reader> what's the problem in particular?
[17:01] <dark-reader> the sound is poor?
[17:08] <Leandronn> Sound is poor
[17:08] <Leandronn> because it's configured by default driver, I think
[17:08] <Leandronn> I tried using hda jack retask, but cannot find correct pin configuration
[17:09] <BluesKaj> Leandronn, which audio chip ?
[17:09] <Leandronn> 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Sunrise Point-H HD Audio (rev 31) this is what lspci says
[17:10] <Leandronn> but in jackretask tool I see a realtek
[17:10] <BluesKaj> realtek uses intel-hda audio
[17:11] <Leandronn> oh, ok
[17:11] <Leandronn> I can't find which pins to override, for what I looked for in Google, this laptop has 4 speakers 1 subwoofer
[17:12] <BluesKaj> Leandronn, using pulseaudio? if ou have the volume cranked higher than 100% it will distort and clip
[17:13] <Leandronn> If you hear this configuration, you would force me to crank it higher than 100000% lol
[17:14] <Leandronn> I'm using pulseaudio
[17:15] <Leandronn> It came by default on my kubuntu installation, I think
[17:15] <BluesKaj> no need for pulseaudio sound serverwith intel-hda ...its redundant IMO...I remove pulse on my intel audio equipped machines
[17:16] <BluesKaj> but that's your call
[17:17] <Leandronn> I will try, It's really anoying listening to music like this
[17:18] <BluesKaj> I purge pulseaudio , it's the only way to get rid of oit permanenetly
[17:19] <Leandronn> If anyone can find something about pins of this laptop, please write me to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[17:19] <Leandronn> thanks
[17:19] <BluesKaj> pins?
[17:19] <Leandronn> I'll let you know what happened
[17:52] <EvilRoey> hi all!!! How do I get the latest version of Youtube-DL onto my kubuntu 15.10 system?  It's out of date by like half a year...
[17:56] <lordievader> EvilRoey: Download the script from the author?
[17:56] <EvilRoey> lordievader:  I suppose.... there's a PPA I've found but that only has the latest one for Xenial
[17:59] <lordievader> The only requirement is python (for as far as I know) so I guess that will work on Wily too.
[18:00] <EvilRoey> right.
[18:00] <EvilRoey> apparently this thing is a python library, hkmm
[18:00] <EvilRoey> *hmmk
[18:00] <EvilRoey> dliasdkgljskdgkdgldkgs
[18:00] <EvilRoey> "hmm".
[18:00] <EvilRoey> There.
[18:01] <lordievader> Jup, just a python script ;)
[18:04] <BluesKaj> EvilRoey, whynot just use wget for now
[18:12] <denza242> BluesKaj: you can't _easily_ wget a youtube bideo
[18:12] <denza242> it's much more convenient to use yt-dl
[18:13] <BluesKaj> denza242, I used wget for quite a while, but the url had to be correct...iirc it was tricky
[18:14] <denza242> EvilRoey: getdeb has youtube-dl
[18:14] <BluesKaj> you ghad to open the page source
[18:14] <BluesKaj> had'
[18:15] <denza242> EvilRoey: http://www.getdeb.net/
[18:15] <denza242> EvilRoey: alternatively, sudo pip install youtube-dl
[18:15] <denza242> but then you'll have to do multiple series of updates
[18:16] <BluesKaj> youtube-dl is available for Xenial
[18:17] <denza242> BluesKaj: hence the _easily_
[18:17] <denza242> !info youtube-dl xenial
[18:17] <denza242> out of date though
[18:18] <denza242> apt-cache policy youtube-dl youtube-dl:   Installed: 1:2016.01.09-1~getdeb1
[18:20] <soee_> is it this: http://youtube-dl.org/ ?
[18:20] <soee_> grb teh latest sources and run it
[18:20] <denza242> soee_: https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl
[18:22] <Smurphy> Anyone knows why I can't use the Arrow UP/Down keys in kmail in the mail listing window
[18:22] <Smurphy> ?
[18:22] <denza242> Smurphy: to navigate between individual emails?
[18:23] <soee_> denza242: this ppa contain build from december https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/ubuntu/webupd8/+index?batch=75&memo=525&start=525
[18:23] <Smurphy> denza242: No. Just to go to the next Mail by example.
[18:23] <denza242> soee_: still more out of date than getdeb
[18:23] <Smurphy> It worked in kmail before the move to plasma 5.
[18:24] <Smurphy> Dunno if it is a kmail issue or a plasma issue though.
[18:24] <denza242> Smurphy: does it move the message window when you try to navigate with the keyboard
[18:24] <Smurphy> Yep.
[18:25] <denza242> Smurphy: probs a kmail issue. Same thing happens to me
[18:25] <Smurphy> ack
[18:25] <BluesKaj> denza242, out of date?  the packages are chosen to run with the corrects libs
[18:26] <denza242> BluesKaj: ytdl runs with python provided by ubuntu
[18:26] <denza242> *the getdeb ytdl
[18:26] <BluesKaj> what's the difference , if it works with one version of python vs another
[18:27] <denza242> BluesKaj: since youtube/google/alphabet keeps tweaking youtube, an out of date version of yt-dl might not be able to fetch the video
[18:27] <BluesKaj> I doubt thast very much
[18:28] <BluesKaj> otherwise why would it be in the repos
[18:28]  * denza242 shrugs
[18:29]  * BluesKaj shrugs back
[18:29] <denza242> BluesKaj: try to dl www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSgUPqygAww with ubuntu's copy of ytdl
[18:36] <BluesKaj> denza242, downloaded perfectly , np
[18:36]  * denza242 shrugs
[18:37] <denza242> EvilRoey: ^^ ubuntu's version will work it seems


[18:32] <wxl> hey folks. kubuntu is planning a big sprint today to prepare uploads for the current plasma and frameworks. our backports are way behind. since we are without any active kubuntu developers with upload access, i've been tasked to try to find a motu that might be willing to help. anyone?
[18:58] <sil2100> wxl: today? Which timezone?
[19:03] <wxl> sil2100: yes, we're planning on doing that today. around 2200 UTC is when we're going to get started.
[19:23] <sil2100> Oh my, that's a bit too late for me sadly
[19:24] <wxl> sil2100: you available tomorrow or otherwise this week? what time?
[19:43] <sil2100> wxl: I could have a spare cycle tomorrow morning UTC for some sponsoring if needed
[19:44] <sil2100> wxl: in case you don't find anyone else to help, feel free to send me an e-mail with work that needs to be done
[19:44] <wxl> sil2100: great. i'll talk with the team and see if we can't arrange around that. at least one of our team is on UTC time, so that should help. thanks!

[00:40] <krytarik> jose: In context of updating meetingology, I just noticed that per <https://git.launchpad.net/~krytarik/ubuntu-bots/+git/meetingology/tree/meeting.py#n84> you get notified every time a meeting is ended - not sure if it was disabled previously and never committed to the repo, but do you want to be notified like this or should I drop you from the list?  Of course, that'd mean nobody gets ...

[09:32] <Guest63714> hello i was wondering if i could get some help about my wireless network
[09:33] <brot> Guest63714: whats your problem?
[09:33] <Guest63714> my wifi adapter doesn't seem to show up
[09:34] <Guest63714> i've been looking for drivers or some way around it finally had to hook up my ethernet cable
[09:34] <brot> what version of ubuntu do you run, and what wifi adapter do you have?
[09:35] <Guest63714> i'm on Xubuntu 10.04, and my wireless adapter is a Actiontec 802AIN
[09:35] <Guest63714> all i can find is 802UXX, but oddly my adapter has worked on ubuntu
[09:37] <Guest63714> lol i usually try not to ask for help but i'm at the end of my knowledge on this distro and overall linux
[09:42] <Guest63714> i'm performing a update so perhaps that will fix the problem
[09:43] <knome> Guest63714, asking is okay
[09:43] <knome> Guest63714, what works in ubuntu should really work in xubuntu, so there's hope

[13:42] <bluedoor> Hello, I'm a happy user of Xubuntu 10.04(LTS). Some background: I have recently decided to try out i3 tiling windows manager. I'm able to chose i3 session from login screen, and after i3 starts, I no longer see the xfce panels. Here's the problem: I cannot connect to wireless network from console.
[13:43] <Sysi> log into xfce, alt+f2 'i3 --replace' and save session on logout
[13:43] <bluedoor> every post I've seen recommends a sequence of commands: iwlist, iwconfig, dhclient and I run them, however dhclient displays only "NO DHCPOFFERS received" at the end
[13:44] <bluedoor> @sysi, thank you, this might work, I'll try that.
[13:47] <bluedoor> one more thing - when I run "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid 'linksys' " (my router has default configuration, no password) and then execute iwconfig, the essid near the wlan0 is some complicated text.
[13:47] <bluedoor> ...and when I connect through xfce panel, it's the network name (linksys). Is it possible that there's the problem?
[13:48] <Sysi> wireless from CLi is just something i won't touch
[13:50] <psycho_oreos> wireless managers like network manager and wicd usually inhibits any manual operation
[13:50] <psycho_oreos> dmesg usually proves as such, one will see device is not ready, etc
[13:51] <Sysi> cnetworkmanager does exist though
[13:58] <bluedoor> I've just downloaded cnetworkmanager, that seems to solve my problems, thank you!
[14:57] <crond> Hi, my 'Other' menu in the Applications menu is just randomly going missing.   2. Select CD-ROM Boot Type :
[18:25] <jeward> And I can't get it to go beyond that prompt.
[18:40] <Sysi> jeward: might be more of mactel business
[18:45] <jeward> Sysi: What does that mean?
[18:46] <Sysi> irc.oftc.net #mactel
[21:03] <mark76> Why's Xubuntu going grey with Natty?
[21:09] <Sysi> new theme? :P
[21:09] <mark76> But... Grey?
[21:09] <mark76> I mean... Grey!?
[21:09] <TheSheep> shh, could have been yellow
[21:09] <mark76> :D
[21:09] <zillar> i like the black and blue
[21:09] <mark76> Black and blue's good
[21:10] <TheSheep> nobody tells you to change your settings
[21:10] <Sysi> grey is way better than brown
[21:10] <mark76> Are they trying not to look like LXDE?
[21:10] <mark76> I mean Lubuntu
[21:10] <Sysi> trying to look less smurf i guess
[21:10] <TheSheep> I don't think it has anything to do with branding
[21:10] <Sysi> just new default theme, why not
[21:10] <charlie-tca> I don't think Xubuntu ever tried to look like Lubuntu, did they?
[21:11] <Sysi> blue one will be available anyway
[21:11] <mark76> Cool
