[00:00] <McMido> http://www.image-share.com/ipng-2587-170.html
[00:00] <skinux> I was using Ubuntu 14.04 Live
[00:00] <rorre> it seems to be blocked, i tried some plugins like ant downloader
[00:00] <McMido> oh wrong :D
[00:01] <rorre> So, whats best? youtube-dl or clipconverter?
[00:01] <skinux> I really want to merge Ubuntu's 30G with 60G (after creating 60G Linux partition), but I can't seem to create 60G partition right after Ubuntu's partition.
[00:01] <Beldar> skinux, Has to be unmounted, and heps if the partitions are in numerical order left to right looking at it meaning beginning to end. do an image of gparted and imagebin.
[00:01] <Teltariat> rorre: go try them out and see
[00:01] <daftykins> skinux: can't you resize rather than create another?
[00:01] <rorre> hehe. thanks i'll do it now
[00:01] <Beldar> imagebin it*
[00:02] <skinux> How can I take a screenshot of only an application instead of whole desktop?
[00:02] <Beldar> skinux, the screenshot app
[00:04] <daftykins> alt+print-screen
[00:04] <zaishen> in windows i used snagit
[00:05] <skinux> Here's the image: http://imagebin.ca/v/1PinLIYz7uDS
[00:05] <daftykins> zaishen: lol, not very helpful to suggest Windows programs in here.
[00:05] <zaishen> haha
[00:06] <rorre> snagit is for what?
[00:06] <zaishen> screenshots
[00:15] <nico103> Ubuntu 11.10 is codename "dreamy", right?
[00:15] <compdoc> Ubuntu 11.10	Oneiric Ocelot
[00:16] <nico103> thx
[00:17] <nico103> so s/us.archive/old-releases/g in /etc/apt/sources.list
[00:17] <compdoc> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[00:18] <nico103> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#Requirements
[00:18] <nico103> since this is EOL...
[00:19] <nico103> but apt-get isn't finding anything
[00:19] <blinking> Anybody have experience running Ubuntu through Hyper-V? I'm having some performance issues.
[00:21] <nico103> ah, needed apt-get update
[00:21] <akts> ola
[00:22] <zaishen> why if there is a task active, u cant uninstall or install new things on the system?
[00:23] <daftykins> blinking: in what way? the 3D requirements of the Unity desktop bogging it down a bit much?
[00:23] <daftykins> zaishen: because only one thing must be working with dpkg at once in order to prevent breakage
[00:24] <zaishen> i hope u guys dev it in the futures to fix this
[00:25] <Jordan_U> nico103: What is your end goal? Why are you not only using, but *installing* an End Of Life version?
[00:25] <daftykins> zaishen: people here are volunteers, not necessarily developers. but even still, it's not a problem to only be able to use one package management utility at once.
[00:26] <daftykins> zaishen: can you explain your usage style that you feel somehow it's a problem?
[00:26] <nico103> Jordan_U: to build release executables that work on older releases
[00:26] <zaishen> binary means 2, or duo core, linux should work like a reactor with this, for example if u want to install 10 programs at once, u should me able to do that
[00:28] <nico103> Jordan_U: otherwise, yeah, I've no interest in older, EOLed releases
[00:28] <daftykins> zaishen: yeah, your statement doesn't make any sense.
[00:29] <daftykins> zaishen: and sure you can install 10 at once... sudo apt-get install <package1> ... <package10>
[00:29] <daftykins> works for me.
[00:29] <daftykins> works for everyone else using debian and debian derivatives
[00:29] <Jordan_U> nico103: 1: Why? 2: That is something much better accomplished with a debootstrap chroot than a full install.
[00:30] <blinking> daftykins: yea exactly.
[00:31] <nico103> Jordan_U: because I built executables on 14.04 and users can't run them
[00:31] <nico103> because it links with too new a glibc
[00:31] <nico103> and my users are on older Linux boxes
[00:31] <nico103> and I can't get them to bother to build
[00:31] <daftykins> blinking: must you absolutely use ubuntu with unity in this/these VM(s)?
[00:31] <nico103> and so on and so forth
[00:31] <nico103> I mean, what do other developers do?!
[00:31] <daftykins> blinking: could you not for example, use a lighter weight desktop environment?
[00:32] <daftykins> nico103: ship an integrated one, maybe
[00:32] <nico103> daftykins: what's that mean?  statically linked?
[00:32] <daftykins> yeah guess so
[00:32] <daftykins> but i'm no dev so don't trust what i say
[00:32] <nico103> ok, how?  I can't get ld to do it
[00:33] <nico103> diet works, but its libm is lame
[00:33] <Guest27297> hey folks, my linux bootloader skills are a little rusty and I an issue with Grub2
[00:33] <daftykins> that would be beyond the scope of this channel i think
[00:33] <nico103> I was thinking of trying uclibc next
[00:33] <nico103> for now I'm trying an older Ubuntu
[00:33] <daftykins> Guest27297: please explain
[00:33] <Guest27297> I'm trying to configure grub2 to boot my windows 7 disk, but having no luck
[00:33] <blinking> daftykins: I suppose - what would you recommend? I would like to use X11 back into my other ubuntu desktop
[00:34] <Guest27297> the fuss is, the windows disk I want to boot from is the 6th disk (for whatever reason) so ubuntu thinks it's /dev/sdf
[00:34] <Guest27297> it's a gpt disk
[00:34] <Guest27297> but the disk I have ubuntu loaded on is an MBR disk
[00:34] <Guest27297> so firstly: Is there a cosmic incompatability I'm creating by having one disk as MBR and another ad GPT?
[00:35] <daftykins> blinking: depends what these VMs are for i guess
[00:35] <daftykins> Guest27297: i'm pretty sure there is
[00:35] <blinking> daftykins: I was going to play with application development and scripting.
[00:36] <Guest27297> ugh.  Guess I should just wipe it out and reinstall... again
[00:36] <daftykins> blinking: ah, but didn't want to mess up your desktop ubuntu install with attempts at setting up?
[00:36] <Guest27297> after I convert to GPT
[00:36] <daftykins> Guest27297: any particular reason why you installed win7 as EFI?
[00:36] <blinking> daftykins: Yes
[00:36] <Guest27297> Been a while since I did it, can't remember why I converted the disk to a gpt
[00:37] <Guest27297> both disks are SSDs
[00:37] <zaishen> anyone play decent games on ubuntu?
[00:37] <daftykins> blinking: gotcha. hmm, there might be some options to try and tone down some of the effects in unity, to make it run a little snappier. i understand there are two different types of hyper-V VM too, sort of compatibility levels? maybe one works better than the other?
[00:37] <Guest27297> and the one I've installed Ubuntu on had been having serious issues once upon a time because I had whole disk encryption installed on it, and it really didn't like being reformatted
[00:38] <daftykins> Guest27297: you should be using boot utilities that secure erase
[00:38] <Guest27297> so I went with old-schol simplicity and reformatted it as a dynamic disk
[00:38] <daftykins> Guest27297: if you did a standard full format you would've wasted a lot of the NAND's lifespan and slowed the drive down by writing to all LBAs
[00:38] <Guest27297> I did, twice,  then I had to get the util from OCZ that wiped it again
[00:38] <Guest27297> it was a total mess
[00:39] <blinking> daftykins: Yea I think the real problem is just unity, installing another desktop like GNOME or something might bypass that completely. I'll look at the compatibility levels also. Thanks for your help.
[00:39] <daftykins> blinking: mmm, xfce is cool, install xubuntu-desktop :)
[00:41] <Guest27297> So, should I convert the Ubuntu disk to GPT? or revert my Windows disk to Dynamic/MBR?
[00:41] <Guest27297> or does it matter?
[00:41] <Guest27297> just that both are the same
[00:42] <blinking> daftykins: i'll check it out. Cheers mate.
[00:42] <daftykins> well, you're mixing terminologies there
[00:42] <daftykins> Guest27297: you can go either way really, either standardise on one or the other
[00:43] <Guest27297> daftykins:  OK, so there's MBR and there's GPT
[00:43] <Guest27297> ok
[00:43] <daftykins> a disk being dynamic in windows has no relevance to this situation
[00:43] <Guest27297> Sorry, force of habit.   I converted the disk in Windows
[00:43] <daftykins> i keep everything basic, safer that way
[00:44] <Guest27297> and I don't know how I would convert an MBR to GPT in linux.  gparted I guess?  but I've never done it in linux
[00:44] <OoTLink> hey everyone, anyone use a USB tv tuner for atsc/ntsc/composite AV on ubuntu?
[00:44] <OoTLink> or have any good recommendations for a cheap one? :)
[00:45] <Guest27297> Thanks for the feedback Dafty.  I'll see if I can't fix the issue.   laters
[00:45] <daftykins> argh always whilst you're typing a response they leave
[00:45] <OoTLink> yeah that is rather painful
[00:48] <daftykins> OoTLink: hmm, this channel is more for support with the OS specifically... you'd be better off just researching online for such a thing... however i can tell you that the abomination that is USB shouldn't carry video :D
[00:49] <OoTLink> hehe
[00:49] <daftykins> so you'd be better off with some kind of PCI/PCI-E card in a desktop system
[00:49] <OoTLink> well there are some mPCIe cards that would work
[00:49] <OoTLink> it's not a laptop, but a fairly cheap all-in-one I got my bro
[00:50] <daftykins> ah.
[00:50] <daftykins> even more exotic
[01:07] <zaishen> anyone know a good program to limit download/upload bandwidth
[01:11] <blah88> so it seems, it kinda works when i remove the ubuntu.desktop from /usr/share/xsession - then my ~/.xsession script loads my different window manager, but then... 5 seconds later im at a login screen, when i have autologin setup - so im not doing it correctly i think.
[01:11] <SchrodingersScat> !info trickle | zaishen
[01:12] <blah88> how do i correctly setup .xsession that runs my own windowmanager/browser
[01:12] <blah88> im on ubuntu 14.04
[01:13] <zaishen> thanks
[01:14] <SchrodingersScat> !info wondershaper | zaishen, maybe some more, try throwing some phrases into apt-cache search
[01:16] <nico103> Jordan_U: so I do seem to be able to build 64-bit executables on Oneiric that work on 14.04, so I'm ecstatic
[01:16] <nico103> however, I can't build 32-bit executables on my 64-bit Oneiric image
[01:16] <nico103> what must I install for that?
[01:18] <nico103> or must I install a 32-bit Oneiric as well?
[01:23] <zaishen> Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is not available on your curent plataform, says steam xD
[01:24] <kostkon> zaishen, not yet available for linux/steam os
[01:29] <zaishen> ill install the normal cs
[01:29] <zaishen> im curious how runs
[01:33] <Bootez> Test
[01:34] <alief> Hey all. I am trying to install ubuntu on a Vaio Duo 11. However after choosing to boot to the live cd or to the installation procedure, I am greeted with the following: http://tinypic.com/r/33z8gad/8
[01:35] <alief> Sorry for not using a paste site, There is no way to copy/paste this message.
[01:35] <alief> Could anyone explain to me what is going on and how to fix this?
[01:35] <daftykins> alief: looking now
[01:36] <alief> daftykins: thanks
[01:37] <daftykins> alief: hmm, the most common things worth trying first are to md5 hash your download to ensure it wasn't corrupted... then remake your installation media (was it USB or DVD?)
[01:37] <daftykins> !md5 | alief
[01:37] <alief> daftykins: it was usb. I have tried downloading the file multiple times at this point.
[01:38] <alief> daftykins: i used the usb installer that was suggested by the ubuntu websit
[01:38] <daftykins> alief: ah i see... do you know if you're booting as UEFI or legacy?
[01:38] <alief> daftykins: legacy with secure boot turned off
[01:39] <daftykins> alief: is a default windows 8 install still on there?
[01:39] <alief> daftykins: yes
[01:39] <daftykins> alief: did you perform its' full shutdown method to ensure it's truly off?
[01:39] <alief> daftykins: to boot into it, I have to undo the modifications to bios though
[01:40] <alief> daftykins: yes. that is the only way I can actually boot into the usb
[01:40] <alief> daftykins: instead of using esc or a f key. The computer has a specialized button for choosing boot options
[01:40] <medberry> chiluk, thanks for the k-ppa. We're giving it a whirl.  Sorry I didn't notify sooner--in class all week
[01:41] <alief> daftykins: it requires that the computer be off
[01:41] <chiluk> medberry, done..
[01:41] <chiluk> the fix wasn't discovered till earlier today.
[01:41] <chiluk> medberry, so it's pretty hot off the presses.
[01:41] <medberry> yep, just saw the support ticket email as well (dated 4 min.s ago)
[01:41] <medberry> we'll get it in test now
[01:41] <chiluk> medberry, the fix is very small though, so I don't expect too many issues assuming it actually resolves the issue
[01:41] <medberry> nod.
[01:41] <daftykins> alief: i mean the way of fully shutting down windows 8
[01:42] <daftykins> alief: and yeah, i had a Lenovo like that the other day
[01:42] <alief> daftykins: i do not shut it down via the OS. No
[01:42] <alief> did not*
[01:43] <alief> daftykins: I do not think that would make a huge impact. Considering the boot options come from the bios and not the OS?
[01:45] <daftykins> alief: i wouldn't be surprised if it does have some relevance, as daft as it sounds i know
[01:45] <mojtaba> Hi, Do you know how can I import thunderbird contacts in to ubuntu contacts? (I want to be able to search my contacts via unity)
[01:45] <daftykins> alief: unfortunately i'm finding nothing online, my only suggestion would be a risky one - of attempting an update (if one is available) of the BIOS (EFI)
[01:46] <alief> daftykins: any other suggestions? These two are better than what I had before - nothing.
[01:47] <daftykins> alief: i suppose next up is the idea of adding extra kernel options, like...
[01:47] <daftykins> !nomodeset | alief This one:
[01:48] <daftykins> alief: i'm totally clutching at straws, but as you say they're worth a try :)
[01:48] <alief> daftykins: I believe you hit it on the nose with that one.
[01:48] <alief> truly
[01:48] <daftykins> oh?
[01:48] <alief> daftykins: I haven't attempted it yet, but I have had surprising results with editting grub.
[01:48] <alief> on other computers that is
[01:49] <alief> Sad I didn't think of that. haha
[01:49] <alief> Well, I will give all three of your suggestions a try. The second only after exhausting options 1 and 3
[01:50] <daftykins> wise decision
[01:50] <alief> thanks again daftykins
[01:50] <daftykins> alief: if you could enter the setup now, i'd be interested by a version #
[01:50] <daftykins> and also an exact model # to see if there even is an updated version
[01:50] <daftykins> i've just seen so many buggy EFIs
[01:50] <alief> daftykins: I can provide that. please hold
[01:50] <mojtaba> Hi, Do you know how can I import thunderbird contacts in to ubuntu contacts? (I want to be able to search my contacts via unity)
[01:51] <alief> daftykins: SVD11225CXB
[01:51] <xangua> mojtaba: you mean online accounts?
[01:51] <daftykins> alief: would this be a US model?
[01:52] <alief> daftykins: I believe so.
[01:52] <mojtaba> xangua: Yes, I am using owncloud to sync my contacts with my mobile and thunderbird. I just wonder if I could search phone numbers through unity.
[01:52] <mojtaba> unity lens*
[01:53] <xangua> mojtaba: since ubuntu online accounts is a fork of gnome online accounts I would imagine you need to use evolutions
[01:53] <mojtaba> xangua: thanks, let me check that
[01:53] <daftykins> alief: on the 12th of May R1064C7 was released
[01:54] <alief> daftykins: I bought this just a week ago.
[01:55] <alief> daftykins: not directly from sony though. Could be outdated I suppose.
[01:55] <alief> Very possible
[01:55] <daftykins> alief: it seems to have some fixes that are worth it for any OS potentially, but yeah - still risky
[01:55] <daftykins> http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=SVD11225CXB&LOC=3#/downloadTab
[01:55] <daftykins> there for reference, assuming that works
[01:56] <alief> thanks a bunch.
[01:56] <alief> I have to go now. I am borrowing internet from a cafe. I'll return if I can to give you an update.
[01:57] <mojtaba> xangua: so if I install evolutions, then after importing the contacts I can search them through unity lens?
[01:57] <mojtaba> xangua: Are you using it? because at the moment I am using thunderbird.
[01:58] <blah88> so i have a .xsession startup script that i run chromium-browser, i need to run xdtool F11 AFTER the browser is run, so how can i loop to see if is running and run a xdotool script as well?
[02:15] <thedoctor> hi
[02:15] <daftykins> hello again.
[02:15] <lamrz> hello everyone, during transferring keyrings between different installations, which files should be kept in the keyring folder (in other words, with the absence/alteration of which file do the keyrings not open?)
[02:16] <thedoctor> should my computer auto connect to wifi upon boot ?
[02:16] <daftykins> if you're in range of your usual network, yes
[02:17] <thedoctor> because it had been but nopw it says im not. but i only see that error with updates.
[02:17] <thedoctor> we did change modems
[02:17] <daftykins> do you mean router?
[02:17] <thedoctor> modem
[02:18] <daftykins> oh ok, so cable service <-> modem <-> router with WiFi <-> computer ?
[02:18] <thedoctor> cable modem
[02:19] <thedoctor> i think its to do with ubuntu update manger
[02:19] <daftykins> yeah, separate devices wouldn't affect that
[02:19] <daftykins> that doesn't really make any sense, what makes you say that?
[02:19] <thedoctor> probaly not
[02:19] <mojtaba> xangua: ?
[02:19] <daftykins> your best plan would be to delete any networks you have setup, then reconnect and store i think
[02:19] <thedoctor> thats the only time i see that error/message.
[02:19] <thedoctor> ok
[02:20] <lamrz> it must be the 'user.keystore' or 'login.keyring' file, I guess. but I cant remember
[02:21] <thedoctor> maybe the network wizard then.
[02:22] <Bootez> timeout
[02:23] <thedoctor> water break
[02:23] <daftykins> thedoctor: what error?
[02:23] <daftykins> lol what network wizard?
[02:23] <daftykins> i think you might be making things up
[02:23] <thedoctor> whatever its called in ubuntu sorry
[02:24] <daftykins> what happens if you click the network manager icon and then the name of your network?
[02:24] <thedoctor> thats not the issue
[02:25] <daftykins> i know, but i asked a question
[02:27] <thedoctor> just the update manger thinks im offline.
[02:30] <thedoctor> but its easy to fix
[02:36] <dw1> is there any way to allow an account to login without a password (and without a key)?  i want to run a BBS that executes via login shell/telnet/xinetd
[02:37] <CPKGaming> hey guys
[02:37] <thedoctor> room is dead

[02:43] <Drew_27> Alright, um.. not sure if this is the right place for me to be, but I'm trying to set up dual boot with Windows 7 and 14.04, not sure why it isn't working
[02:43] <thedoctor> stupid silly user
[02:44] <daftykins> Drew_27: describe what you've got, what you did and what went wrong
[02:44] <Drew_27> Alright. So I started on the ubuntu website
[02:44] <Drew_27> Saw that it was free, looked simple, USB boot, I'd done that before
[02:44] <daftykins> ...preferably on as few lines as possible
[02:44] <thedoctor> this is windows chat sorry pal
[02:45] <daftykins> thedoctor: don't speak if you're going to talk rubbish please
[02:45] <Drew_27> Got everything donwloaded, tried installing right away... And failed. Went back, read up on it, made new partitions for SWAP and the installation, and even now it's not installed
[02:45] <Drew_27> I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I tried following directions.. right now I'm on the "try it now" / "demo" version I believe
[02:46] <thedoctor> askubuntu.com
[02:46] <thedoctor> rubbish.com
[02:46] <daftykins> thedoctor: why do you keep typing that?
[02:46] <daftykins> thedoctor: you realise you're just earning yourself a kick, right?
[02:46] <IdleOne> thedoctor: when you needed help did people make silly unhelpful comments to you?
[02:47] <daftykins> Drew_27: good stuff, can you open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit"
[02:47] <gassho> i had worse treatment than that when i needed help
[02:47] <daftykins> Drew_27: a terminal can be opened with ctrl + alt + T
[02:47] <gassho> in #windows
[02:48] <Drew_27> Thank you, I'll be trying that for you, one moment
[02:49] <Drew_27> E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[02:49] <daftykins> Drew_27: hmm, is your live session not online?
[02:49] <Drew_27> What do you mean?
[02:49] <daftykins> oh you're probably typing from it now, aren't you :)
[02:50] <daftykins> ok try "sudo apt-get install pastebinit"

[02:50] <unopaste> Drew_27 you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[02:51] <daftykins> yeah, don't paste lots to here :)
[02:51] <daftykins> Drew_27: you must have either a software updater open, or the ubuntu software centre... something similar.
[02:51] <daftykins> close any such open program and try again
[02:51] <dw1> well i got the password to be blank per http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/creating-a-passwordless-account-in-ubuntu/comment-page-1/ but i still have to press enter to enter the blank password.  damn.
[02:51] <gassho> do ops have the right to blindly bully whoever they please to?
[02:51] <dw1> (want to run a bbs via shell login)
[02:51] <gassho> opers or w hatever
[02:52] <daftykins> gassho: it'd be great if you could take the off topic conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[02:52] <gassho> i think we have enough of that
[02:52] <Jordan_U> Drew_27: Did you use automatic or manual partitioning when you installed the first time? How did installation "fail" specifically?
[02:52] <Drew_27> Manually partitioned..
[02:52] <Drew_27> I had to make space by "shrinking" for 2 "unused space" sections
[02:53] <Drew_27> 40 GB for Ubuntu, and a good deal for Swap too
[02:53] <Drew_27> I then set the mouse pointer to "/" and whatnot, um.. It's a little hazy, the full process but if you ask a detail I can recall
[02:53] <Drew_27> trying the paste thing again btw
[02:54] <Drew_27> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7636711/
[02:55] <Drew_27> Windows 7 still works perfectly, but Ubuntu just gave a bunch of error codes in the installer that .. I had to close to install the pastebin thing
[02:56] <dw1> ahh login -f ... woot
[02:57] <Drew_27> -f = forced?
[02:57] <Drew_27> @dw1
[02:57] <dw1> no authentication needed. want to run a bbs that executes via login shell
[02:57] <dw1> with xinetd
[02:57] <bootez> test
[02:57] <Drew_27> Was just curious
[02:58] <daftykins> Drew_27: your partitions suggest you've never installed ubuntu at all
[02:58] <daftykins> unless you kept undoing it afterward
[02:58] <Drew_27> I noticed that, which is strange. And I'm not undoing anything, unless you count closing the installer
[02:58] <daftykins> ah maybe it just never wrote some changes
[02:59] <Drew_27> Do you think this situation is Teamviewer worthy? Heh..
[02:59] <daftykins> ok, what you should do is go back to your Windows install and resize the second partition to make room for ubuntu
[02:59] <Drew_27> ._.
[02:59] <daftykins> only if you don't want to learn anything
[02:59] <daftykins> however it's 4am so i am about to leave
[02:59] <Drew_27> I can resize partitions from Ubuntu though
[02:59] <Drew_27> Can't I?
[02:59] <daftykins> yeah, but it's safer to do it natively
[02:59] <daftykins> i'm suggesting an alternate course of action
[02:59] <daftykins> your disk is pretty small by the way
[02:59] <Drew_27> I realize..
[03:00] <Drew_27> It's what I've got though, it's my laptop
[03:00] <lamrz> hello, I recovered my keyring file via photorec, and pasted it to keyrings folder, but the password isnt accepted when I try to unlock (the password is correct :))
[03:01] <Drew_27> daftykins, if you're still there, what size would you reccomend?
[03:01] <Drew_27> recommend*
[03:01] <daftykins> Drew_27: depends, are you just wanting to have a play around with ubuntu?
[03:02] <Drew_27> I was kinda thinking about using it, like possibly even playing games on it
[03:02] <Drew_27> It's quicker than Win-doze
[03:02] <daftykins> you've not got much disk space to be installing games
[03:03] <Drew_27> I wish you could see this, there's more space than that from what I saw
[03:03] <daftykins> Drew_27: well i saw your paste, 320GB disk.
[03:03] <iheartkode> Hi I installed fresh 14.04 been a few days and now it's sluggish so slow .
[03:04] <Drew_27> sec, opening GParted.. I wanna check that that's what I've got
[03:04] <daftykins> there's no way it was wrong.
[03:04] <iheartkode> Any reason Ubuntu would suddenly be so sluggish?
[03:04] <Drew_27> It didn't see the other partitions ._.
[03:04] <daftykins> iheartkode: how are you gauging this performance?
[03:04] <Drew_27> Which I did in Windows before jsyk
[03:05] <iheartkode> I use top
[03:05] <daftykins> but what are you noticing as slow?
[03:05] <iheartkode> apport was taking 98% cpu so I disabled it.. but I don't see much as taking mem or cpu
[03:05] <daftykins> Drew_27: upload a pic of gparted maybe
[03:05] <Drew_27> It's loading. How to screenshot with Ubuntu? XD
[03:06] <Jordan_U> !screenshot | Drew_27
[03:06] <Drew_27> oh that's curious
[03:06] <daftykins> same way as usual
[03:06] <iheartkode> I just realized when i close chrome it speeds up.
[03:06] <Drew_27> I have another 7.5 on another Partition as FAT
[03:06] <daftykins> Drew_27: presumably that's your flash drive plugged in.
[03:06] <Drew_27> OH. Yup
[03:06] <iheartkode> but it  was fast before when i first installed it
[03:07] <daftykins> iheartkode: there y'go, use FF instead ;)
[03:07] <riz0n> Is Ubuntu 12.04.1 released yet?
[03:07] <iheartkode> I can't my dad uses chrome for gmail bookmarks etc
[03:07] <iheartkode> 14.04.1 you mean?
[03:07] <Drew_27> @daftykins why wouldn't my drive be big enough for games? I don't download tons; just Team Fortress 2, Minecraft, League of Legends.
[03:07] <Devme> Plzz i have a unsupported hoary hedgehog ubuntu.which is the os with all best features for my 10 yrs old intel celeron pc??
[03:07] <Jordan_U> lamrz: I assume you're already passed this point, but is this how you're trying to use the keyring: http://superuser.com/questions/508916/is-it-possible-to-import-a-gnome-keyring-to-another-from-its-binary-files ?
[03:07] <sysRPL> hello
[03:08] <riz0n> yeah 14.04.1 sorry
[03:08] <iheartkode> check the site for releases
[03:08] <daftykins> Drew_27: right so you'll have to add all those up, size wise, then make ubuntu's partition enough for itself and all that.
[03:08] <sysRPL> could someone help me with a problem i've had on ubntu for a while? i cannot connect to a windows 7 shared folder from ubuntu ... i've read a lot online and nothing has helped
[03:08] <Jordan_U> Devme: "best" is always subjective, but try Lubuntu 14.04.
[03:08] <Jordan_U> !lubuntu | Devme
[03:09] <iheartkode> Firefox is freezing ubuntu also taking for ever to load
[03:09] <Drew_27> @daftykins how much space does Ubuntu use usually, and why might the installer have given errors previously?
[03:09] <sysRPL> basically i am typing smb://<IP_ADDRESS> into the nautilus location bar
[03:09] <Drew_27> AND, is there a way to completely uninstall Ubuntu without hitting "reinstall"?
[03:09] <iheartkode> sda1
[03:09] <Devme> yes i have tried but with a 700 MB cd.it didnt work then what should i do??
[03:09] <sysRPL> and i get an "Oops! Something ent wrong" emssage
[03:10] <daftykins> Drew_27: sadly for your second question my crystal ball is in for repair... for size, probably under 3GB installed ubuntu size, not sure
[03:10] <sysRPL> this has happened on a few different installs of ubuntu with this windows machine
[03:10] <iheartkode> Chrome and firefox both are making my system slow. I have plenty of ram and cpu power.
[03:10] <iheartkode> and fresh install
[03:10] <Devme> shoud i try with a DVD??
[03:11] <Drew_27> iheartkode what do you mean "plenty of ram and cpu power"? Specs to back that up?
[03:11] <daftykins> Devme: pretty sure all the ISOs are bigger than a CD-R now. So DVD, yes
[03:11] <Jordan_U> Devme: What do you mean by "didn't work"?
[03:12] <daftykins> Drew_27: but it's not installed...
[03:12] <Devme> i cant write .iso file in cd.
[03:13] <Devme> k,i will try with a DVD...
[03:13] <daftykins> Drew_27: did you upload that image yet?
[03:13] <lamrz> Jordan_U, I think what this user did is the same as what I did. I copy-pasted the recovered files into /.gnome2/keyrings folder..I've always done that before, and this is an old system where I'd pasted the same keyrings earlier. aside from the case that the keyrings are errorenously recovered, what can I try?
[03:13] <Drew_27> Well.. when I start up it says to select a version technically, and when I hit "install" from the USB exe file, it says "a current version exists. Uninstall and reinstall?"
[03:13] <Drew_27> Also, you were right, but I can.. which partitions do you need to see?
[03:13] <lamrz> meaning not are, but might be errorenously recovered*
[03:13] <daftykins> USB exe? that sounds like WUBI. Do. Not. Use. WUBI.
[03:13] <daftykins> best advice i can give you, ever.
[03:13] <Drew_27>  not wubi
[03:14] <sysRPL> when i ... smbclient -L <IP_ADDRESS> -U mywindowsusername ... i get ... Connection to <IP_ADDRESS> failed (Error NT_STATUS_RESOURCE_NAME_NOT_FOUND)
[03:14] <Drew_27> It's an EXE on my usb that installs it apparently? It's from the ubuntu website installation
[03:14] <daftykins> Drew_27: gparted shows the whole disk.
[03:14] <Drew_27> @dafty right, my bad, I was looking at it wrong, almost done
[03:15] <daftykins> Drew_27: i'm sorry nothing you're saying makes sense, i've got to call it a night now. i still say resize the Windows partition... make 80GB+ of space, then reinstall. maybe try reading some docs too, you shouldn't be needing to manually partition at all - the installer should see windows and ask if you want to install alongside
[03:16] <Drew_27> http://imagebin.org/313552
[03:16] <Drew_27> oh 80+ GB
[03:16] <Drew_27> And the problem is it didn't see that
[03:16] <Drew_27> I manually did it, then it still didn't work.. eh..
[03:17] <daftykins> whoa.
[03:17] <Drew_27> ??
[03:17] <daftykins> that's... one messed up disk
[03:17] <Drew_27> ... uh..
[03:18] <daftykins> 50MB sat in the middle there doing nothing
[03:18] <Drew_27> 39.05 GiB was for the ubuntu, the 50 MB was my attempt at giving it a SWAP space
[03:18] <iheartkode> Fresh install 14.04   open chrome locks up open FF froze the pc..   ?
[03:18] <Drew_27> it asked for one, and I googled it, and that's where it went downhill
[03:18] <daftykins> it looks like you tried to resize the 100MB sda1 to 50MB
[03:18] <Drew_27> ...I did, you know Google
[03:19] <daftykins> right click sda1 and see if you can resize it back to normal
[03:19] <iheartkode> ubuntu runs fast without loading chrome or FF wtf
[03:19] <Drew_27> I think I can
[03:19] <Drew_27> resized
[03:20] <cwide> Hey I was wondering if someone could help me. For some reason whenever I load any Linux distro my USB 2.0 ports don't work but my USB 3.0 ports DO work. Any ideas?
[03:20] <lamrz> I wonder if I should also try to recover the old login keyring of the machine where the keyring itself was, and maybe they would then match each other
[03:20] <daftykins> Drew_27: also, right click and unmount sda2
[03:20] <Drew_27> unmount sda2.. I don't think it'll let me
[03:20] <Drew_27> It hasn't let me before
[03:20] <daftykins> you are booted from the flash drive, right?
[03:20] <Foxhoundz> Does anyone use Digital Ocean here?
[03:20] <Drew_27> Gotta wait for it to reload because I applied the change and it's refreshing, but
[03:20] <Drew_27> Uh...
[03:21] <Drew_27> I think I'm from the flash drive??
[03:21] <Drew_27> That might be the issue tbh
[03:21] <ObrienDave> is sda2 your windows partition?
[03:21] <Drew_27> Correct
[03:21] <Drew_27> ..I think
[03:21] <daftykins> ObrienDave: come now the window says it all :P
[03:21] <Drew_27> http://imagebin.org/313552 @ObrienDave
[03:21] <fellipe> hi, I have an ubuntu server 12.04 with 3 interfaces and I've noted that after rebooting they are changed. For example, the eth0 becomes eth1, and eth1 becomes eth2 and so on... what could be it
[03:21] <Drew_27> PS the 50 MB was fixed
[03:22] <ObrienDave> yea, yea, tired ;P
[03:22] <Jordan_U> fellipe: Install biosdevname for consistant device naming.
[03:22] <fellipe> Jordan_U,  hi. Just install it? Any configuration?
[03:23] <daftykins> Drew_27: so run the installer again and get up to the partitioning step, then share an image
[03:23] <Drew_27> umount: /isodevice: device is busy.
[03:23] <Drew_27>         (In some cases useful info about processes that use
[03:23] <Drew_27>          the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))
[03:23] <Drew_27> I think I'm logged on FROM the drive itself
[03:23] <daftykins> yeah i'm not convinced you're booted entirely separately... or you've done something to somehow be tied to your Windows partition
[03:23] <Drew_27> somehow or another
[03:23] <Drew_27> I have no idea what but
[03:23] <Drew_27> Gah :L
[03:23] <Drew_27> :(
[03:24] <daftykins> do you have any important data in Windows?
[03:24] <Jordan_U> fellipe: Just install it, and get used to the "odd" device names :)
[03:24] <Drew_27> Yeah, I actually do
[03:24] <daftykins> Drew_27: got an external hard disk to backup to?
[03:24] <Drew_27> If you count a 8 GB flash drive.. /scoff
[03:24] <Drew_27> an*
[03:25] <fellipe> Jordan_U, sorry for my english. So, what's the meaning of get used to the odd device names?
[03:26] <daftykins> Drew_27: that'll be a no then
[03:26] <cwide> Hey I was wondering if someone could help me. For some reason whenever I load any Linux distro my USB 2.0 ports don't work but my USB 3.0 ports DO work. Any ideas?
[03:26] <Drew_27> @daftykins Is there a proper installer link you can give me btw?
[03:26] <daftykins> Drew_27: ok, i think a lot of work has to be done before you're ready to install and even then you'll end up with very little disk space for either OS
[03:26] <ObrienDave> !crosspost | cwide
[03:27] <Drew_27> .. Okay.. "a lot of work"??
[03:27] <Foxhoundz> I think my Ubuntu might have gotten hacked.
[03:27] <daftykins> Drew_27: the way it works is you boot a DVD or flash drive with ubuntu on, and you run the installer. there isn't really another way to approach it, that way should be fine.
[03:27] <Foxhoundz> I found some odd commands in .bash_history.
[03:27] <Drew_27> Alright.  BIOS doesn't have anything to do with partitioning :)
[03:28] <Drew_27> It's using 35 MB of the 100..
[03:28] <Drew_27> Yes it does, to boot from the USB
[03:28]  * pity Hi guys! Can I send a command to multiple hosts with ssh one time? Like this: ssh host1,host2,host3 uptime
[03:29] <daftykins> Drew_27: ok, but no something way more seriously wrong is going on in that you're somehow in a live session but the windows partition is mounted and won't drop
[03:30] <Drew_27> That is a little strange.. I do agree
[03:30] <Drew_27> Well
[03:30] <Drew_27> let me tell you how it boots up right now
[03:30] <daftykins> Drew_27: anywho i really must go. feel free to address the channel for more help, write down the links of info you shared so you can show them what they're letting themselves in for
[03:30] <daftykins> however if they run screaming, don't be too dissuaded
[03:30] <Drew_27> It turns on, shows the Lenovo screen (yay Lenovo), and then tells me to select a version: Windows 7 or Ubuntu
[03:30] <Drew_27> just saying, and alright
[03:30] <ObrienDave> that's not a live boot
[03:31] <lamrz> can anyone help me with my recent question please?
[03:31] <xangua> !ask | lamrz
[03:31] <Drew_27> Well I didn't install it correctly yet, yet I can turn it on with Ubuntu.. it gives me 5 seconds to hit ESC for options like "demo version"
[03:31] <daftykins> lamrz: someone would reply if they could
[03:31] <ObrienDave> Drew_27, that's the grub boot
[03:31] <Drew_27> Which, is what I'm on right now
[03:31] <Drew_27> Ok.. Didn't know that
[03:31] <lamrz> maybe they were busy
[03:31] <Drew_27> Either way, so my job right now is to go to Windows, free more space, then boot from USB, right?
[03:32] <Drew_27> And come back here if I need any more help?
[03:32] <daftykins> i think you've somehow installed GRUB and made it boot an ISO from your windows partition
[03:32] <Drew_27> I don't even know dude
[03:32] <Drew_27> NO idea
[03:32] <daftykins> nah this is sounding way worse than before
[03:32] <Drew_27> That's why I was asking how to uninstall earlier
[03:32] <Drew_27> o.o
[03:32] <The0x539> meanwhile I just want to boot to grub
[03:32] <The0x539> :/
[03:32] <daftykins> but yeah, someone that's awake needs to help you
[03:32] <ObrienDave> and i'm not THAT awake ;P
[03:32] <Drew_27> Alrighty.. Take care, thanks for all your help daftykins
[03:33] <Drew_27> Obrien plz ;(
[03:33] <Drew_27> ;L
[03:33] <The0x539> because RN i need to access it through 8.1's advanced startup
[03:33] <daftykins> The0x539: you don't appear to have asked a question though
[03:33] <lamrz> daftykins, it is a rather generic question, I guess, I'll be happy if someone can help sometime
[03:33] <daftykins> cya \o
[03:33] <Elouise> My laptop can access WiFi, but no internet connection? Help
[03:33] <The0x539> how would I boot straight to grub on windows 8.1.1/uefi
[03:34] <Drew_27> I don't want to hurt this computer any more than I have... Anyone here smart about dual boot? :l
[03:34] <Elouise> It was working before, and I went to a hotel, and I had to do the sudo dhclient -r thing, and it worked. Now I got home, it's not working anymore.. help me please
[03:34] <Drew_27> :I
[03:34] <McMido> how to display php files in terminal ??
[03:34] <Bashing-om> lamrz: State your issue, We will see what I know.
[03:35] <Drew_27> Or... Anyone know anything about installing 14.04 alongside Windows 7
[03:35] <Drew_27> And where I went wrong
[03:35] <Drew_27> (If not, I can try to fix it myself in a few mins I guess)
[03:35] <Ben64> Drew_27: explain in detail what you did
[03:35] <Jordan_U> Fox/lastlog Drew_27
[03:35] <ObrienDave> Drew_27, the 50mb partition is your windows boot. make that one use the next 50mb blank space.....
[03:35] <Jordan_U> Sorry :)
[03:35] <Drew_27> Obrien, done
[03:35] <McMido> <Drew_27 well iam already installed ubuntu 14.4 alonge side win 8.1
[03:35] <Drew_27> I didn't update the image with that yet
[03:36] <Drew_27> McMido, question...
[03:36] <Elouise> My WiFi was working before. I went to a hotel, and I had to do the sudo dhclient -r thing, and it worked (thanks to google). Now I got home, it's not working anymore.. help me please
[03:36] <Drew_27> After you put the file(s?) on the usb drive did you RUN the exe on it or no??
[03:36] <McMido> nope
[03:36] <Drew_27> or CD or DVD
[03:36] <Drew_27> damn
[03:36] <Drew_27> That's where I went wrong
[03:36] <McMido> usb
[03:36] <Drew_27> I ran the exe..
[03:36] <Drew_27> Went through some weird setup
[03:36] <McMido> no dont run :D
[03:36] <Drew_27> Well I did.
[03:36] <Drew_27> Dunno the solution..
[03:36] <ObrienDave> Drew_27, let me look at the screenshot again
[03:37] <McMido> just restart it and use boot from usb :d
[03:37] <lamrz> Bashing-om,  I recovered  my keyring file via photorec, and pasted it in the keyrings folder of an old enough system (was done successfully earlier) yet this time the password couldnt unlock the keyring file. the password is correct.
[03:37] <Drew_27> Alright. The Windows boot is back to normal, which is the top (two?)
[03:37] <Drew_27> McMido, I haven't had success with that yet jsyk
[03:37] <lamrz> what can I do to unlock it?
[03:37] <lamrz> assuming, of course, there is no error occured in the file recovery
[03:38] <McMido> <Drew_27 well Retry it :D
[03:38] <Drew_27> :l alright
[03:38] <Bashing-om> lamrz: Sorry, out of my sphere of knowlege, I do not know how that keyring works.
[03:38] <Drew_27> I'll wait ObrienDave's response, then if nothing new, try resizing for more space, then I'll try booting straight from USB
[03:38] <ObrienDave> Drew_27, can you post a new screenshot of gparted, please?
[03:39] <Drew_27> Sure thing
[03:39] <Jordan_U> Drew_27: If you boot Ubuntu's installer normally and use automatic partitioning I expect that it will work fine.
[03:40] <McMido> well ^^ thats right
[03:40] <Drew_27> .. Oh alright, should I resize so that the "free space" is gone then instead?
[03:40] <Drew_27> http://imagebin.org/313554
[03:41] <Drew_27> Because I found out you can do that, give the space back..
[03:41] <McMido> well leave it like that :d
[03:41] <ObrienDave> much better!
[03:41] <Drew_27> Leave it like so then boot from USB?
[03:41] <McMido> yes
[03:41] <Drew_27> Okay.. Now to go to a Lenovo help channel to figure out why this crap wouldn't boot from USB before, that is, after I try again to be sure
[03:41] <Drew_27> Thanks a lot, though
[03:42] <Jordan_U> Drew_27: Either with or without existing unallocated space automatic partitioning should work fine.
[03:42] <ObrienDave> set BIOS to boot from USB again
[03:42] <Drew_27> Thank you guys.. Cya, wish me luck
[03:42] <Drew_27> And uh, it said I had to enable something, but we'll see..
[03:42] <McMido> <Drew_27 good luck dude :)
[03:42] <lamrz> Bashing-om, no problem, thank you for your time and showing interest
[03:43] <McMido> well if your motherboard gigabyte you could press F12 after restarting , Blue screen will show up choose Usb-hdd :D
[03:44] <ObrienDave> *if*
[03:44] <McMido> ^
[03:45] <McMido> And now any one knows how to Display Php files in Terminal ??
[03:49] <somsip> McMido: use an editor, or less
[03:50] <lamrz> I'm trying to send the output of a command to a file by creating an output file and typing command >/filepath , but I'm getting empty outputs. what am I doing wrong here? :)
[03:50] <Bashing-om> lamrz: Wish I did, some day I might. hang loose here, others may respond.
[03:50] <somsip> lamrz: what is the command?
[03:50] <blah88> someone help me out  i have a .xsession script that is run on boot that will open up browser, my goal is to only run it if its not running, but it loops and keeps opening over and over. - my code is here http://pastebin.com/Zm8Su1R5 - any help i would appreciate
[03:51] <somsip> blah88: create a .pid file (or other lock file) when it runs, and check for its existence before running the main part of the script.
[03:51] <lamrz> somsip, it is this: find . -type f -print|xargs grep -l html;    and I add >/filepath to it
[03:52] <blah88> whats difference tho? pgrep should work
[03:52] <alternut> I have a server set up on a dchp connection, how would I go about making it send something like an email if my router's ip changes?
[03:53] <Bashing-om> lamrz: " command >/filepath" spaces .. try as command > Path_to_file-name .
[03:53] <McMido> <somsip well i want to get the output of the function displayed on the Terminal :)
[03:53] <somsip> alternut: maybe research scripts provided by companies like dyndns and no-ip that do that self same thing
[03:53] <alternut> alright
[03:53] <somsip> McMido: php {filename}.php then
[03:54] <McMido> <somsip hmm didnt try that , aight :)
[03:54] <lamrz> Bashing-om, with dot at the end?
[03:54] <somsip> alternut: you'll just need to change the final action to initiate an email rather than a call to the dyndns/noip API
[03:55] <lamrz> or does it belong only to the sentence?
[03:55] <Bashing-om> lamrz: No that is a period for sentence completion in this instance.
[03:55] <ornj> Can someone help me with adding a wireless printer?
[03:56] <alternut> ah okay, thanks somsip
[03:56] <lotuspsychje> !printer | ornj
[03:56] <alternut> to take this one step further, do you think it'd be possible to update my domain provider automatically?
[03:57] <ornj> Yeah, I'm there already.
[03:57] <somsip> alternut: depends who manages your DNS. Who is it?
[03:57] <ObrienDave> ornj, which brand?
[03:57] <ornj> I googled + got so results, I came here.
[03:57] <ornj> Canon
[03:57] <lamrz> It is the same. did I get it right? command>/path and then a blank space?
[03:57] <alternut> 1and1
[03:57] <alternut> and namecheap
[03:58] <somsip> alternut: I'm aware of them but have no idea if they offer an API to manage DNSs, which is what they'd need to do unless you want to do a lot of curl commands to post the change to their website manually
[03:59] <ornj> Dave>> I went to Network printer, searched on the IP address, it brings up something in Spanish it calls "Cola" (queue?) and then gives me a list of "connections"
[03:59] <ornj> among which are PASSTHRU, lp, PORT1, LPT0, LPT_PASSTHRU... etc.
[03:59] <lotuspsychje> ornj: did you install canon drivers? can you see printer name+ type?
[03:59] <ornj> COM0, 1, 2, COM3_PASSTHRU
[03:59] <lamrz> Bashing-om, anyway, thank you again! maybe I should call it a day..
[04:00] <Bashing-om> lamrz: no again, the blan space at the end of the command sequence might confuse the issue. just run for an example -> ls -la > test.txt <- which will create the file 'test.txt' in the present working directory.
[04:00] <ornj> I just selected "PASSTHRU" and that brought me to the list of manufacturers + from there I found my model printer
[04:00] <lotuspsychje> ornj: whats type of your canon?
[04:00] <ornj> but I was just wondering what the difference between all those was... I kinda just clicked "PASSTHRU" 'cause it was first on the list.  :P
[04:00] <ornj> MG5200, sir
[04:01] <ornj> I remember COM ports, sort of, vaguely, from back in the day, and I know I've seen LPT0, LPT1 before
[04:02] <ornj> but I have no idea what they do + no idea what PASSTHRU means.
[04:02] <ornj> or "lp"
[04:03] <lamrz> Bashing-om, does it need to be just the filename or the file path?
[04:03] <lotuspsychje> ornj: maybe this can help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/168089/how-do-i-install-my-new-canon-mg5250-printer-mg5200-series
[04:04] <alternut> somsip what do you mean by curl commands? think this would be something good for me to learn, I cant see the ip changing more than once or twice a year
[04:04] <mdim> Hi all! Is there a way to export Byobu's configuration to the GNU screen format?
[04:04] <mdim> i.e. to the format for ~/.screenrc
[04:04] <Bashing-om> lamrz: Depends on where you are at in the file system (Present Working Directoty) and where you want to go to, and where you want that created file to be.
[04:05] <SchrodingersScat> !info curl | alternut
[04:05] <somsip> alternut: its offtopic to go into detail here. But you'd be using curl to make a series of calls to 1and1 DNS management pages to replicate what your browser would be doing if you changed the IP manually. It may not be possible though.
[04:05] <ornj> Thanks, lotuspsychje
[04:06] <lamrz> Bashing-om, I run the command in the same folder as that of the output file.
[04:07] <SchrodingersScat> alternut: there is a #curl
[04:07] <alternut> ah okay
[04:07] <alternut> thanks
[04:08] <lamrz> Bashing-om, but thank you, really. I solved the problem the other way, followed the outputs from the terminal
[04:08] <Bashing-om> lamrz: Then, no path is needed. just the 'command > file-name' will do the trick.
[04:09] <lamrz> Bashing-om, oh, ok, was simple :) I'll keep it in mind for next time
[04:10] <Bashing-om> lamrz: Good deal, just remember all things are relative to that PWD >
[04:12] <lamrz> Bashing-om, I will remember it, thank you for your help and the learning!
[04:13] <Bashing-om> la : ) -> I am here to learn also .. We are all in this together .
[04:14] <Foxhoundz> ok false alarm guys
[04:14] <Foxhoundz> my ubuntu was not hacked
[04:14] <Foxhoundz> everyone calm down
[04:14] <Foxhoundz> thank you for your hard work
[04:15] <Foxhoundz> ..y...you can go back to your regularly scheduled routine
[04:15] <lamrz> have a good night / day!
[04:16] <SchrodingersScat> Foxhoundz: absence of evidence is not evidence of absence
[04:16] <Kawaiola> When I try to gain root access or even run a command as sudo this is what comes up sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 1000, should be 0 any ideas
[04:17] <Foxhoundz> SchrodingersScat: http://pastebin.com/rVjpE0iQ
[04:17] <Foxhoundz> that's what I found in my .bash_history
[04:17] <Kawaiola> At this point it won't let me do anything I can't make changes and I believe this problem started because everytime I would log in I would make myself root
[04:18] <Kawaiola> Then when my co worker wanted to make changes ftp I have to give the sudo account access to all of the files and groups
[04:18] <Kawaiola> Well somewhere in doing that it reall messed up the permissions.
[04:19] <Kawaiola> At least thats what I think I'm a telecom guy who understand unix pretty well but I have never really go into linux until recently so I basicaly just did a lot of reading a messing around until things worked
[04:19] <Kawaiola> but I'm hoping someone else has had this issue before
[04:23] <Bashing-om> Kawaiola: try : http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/sudo for that solution.
[04:24] <Kawaiola> Okay I will give it a shot and let you know how it goes thank you [I did look online for the solution but nothing so far has seemed to help me out]
[04:24] <Kawaiola> I'm begining to think it might be harder because my ubuntu is running on a vm
[04:26] <Bashing-om> Kawaiola: Cant say abot running in a VM .. nother source to look at -> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo <- .
[04:26] <Capprentice> What is correct way to instll - Unity3d on 64 bit Ubuntu?
[04:26] <ObrienDave> Kawaiola, that should not matter. Vbox?
[04:28] <dw1> how can i make binutils-multiarch work in a jailkit jail :)
[04:28] <Kawaiola> ObrienDave: No not vbox I'm using vmware sphere on a server that runs a few vms and I only say it might make a difference because throughout the entire setup I ran into a lot of issues because of the way it installs in a vm there seems to be extra folders and such
[04:28] <dw1> i copied all the files but its not enough.. arg ;D
[04:29] <Beldar> Kawaiola, No image of the OS when working?
[04:29] <Foxhoundz> O_O
[04:29] <Foxhoundz> oh no
[04:29] <Foxhoundz> oh no no no
[04:29] <Foxhoundz> ok well
[04:29] <Foxhoundz> I just nuked my partition
[04:29] <Foxhoundz> good night everyone
[04:29] <Beldar> Foxhoundz, Lat off the enter, you are not new here.
[04:30] <Beldar> Lay
[04:30] <Foxhoundz> Beldar: I feel like we've had this conversation before
[04:30] <ObrienDave> probably LMAO
[04:30] <Beldar> Foxhoundz, If you abuse the enter that is a possibility
[04:30] <Foxhoundz> Beldar: you seem to get upset about mundane things
[04:30] <ObrienDave> *no enter abuse*
[04:31] <Beldar> Foxhoundz, That I am upset is a projection, your response is one that is self absorbed and narcissistic
[04:31] <Beldar> welcome to ignore
[04:31] <Foxhoundz> no
[04:31] <Foxhoundz> Beldar: please don't ignore me.
[04:32] <Locke2002> Foxhoundz: Think you can recover the partition?
[04:33] <Foxhoundz> I'm going to reinstall the operating system
[04:36] <rost> kuckuck
[04:36] <rost> hello need support
[04:37] <Beldar> rost, Lots of help here waiting for your description, of your issue.
[04:38] <rost> question: someone sends spam over my system - stopping "postfix "helps a little time  -  what is the best effort in this way!?
[04:39] <Beldar> rost, If someone else has access, turn it off and reload the working image or reinstall
[04:39] <Kawaiola> Bashing-om: Okay so here is the biggest issue I have when it comes to resolving the issue I can't get into recovery mode because everytime I boot the server from the VM it boots and asks for my crypt password and there is no boot menu there is no way to get into recovery mode at least not a way I understand
[04:41] <Bashing-om> Kawaiola: What results when you boot up from grub with the boot paramaeter "text" . Can you 'sudo' from that terminal ?
[04:43] <ornj> I've tried a bunch of different methods + it keeps seeming to instal the printer but then whenever I try to test print my job is always "Held"
[04:44] <rost> @beldar - yes, i 've already done it. i just checked my complete configuration, take a original iso img, boot and nuke the disk, need to know how i can disable or delete my L1+L2 Cache, because this worked on another system...but here oon my fuji - laptop can't get control over it
[04:45] <Kawaiola> Bashing-om: That is the problem I never get to see it boot from grub, by the time I can open the virtual console it is already asking me for my crypt password and I can't make it give me consol access fast enough to catch the grub loader
[04:45] <causative> just upgraded to 14.04 a couple days ago, I have a problem: sometimes when I click once on a window to select it, it fullscreens... I think it has something to do with compiz "grid" mode but I turned that off
[04:46] <raj> how do I get the latest irssi since ubuntu's repo has the old one?
[04:49] <causative> raj what ubuntu version are you on, with 14.04 irssi 0.8.15 is in the repository which is almost the latest version
[04:49] <rost> @serious question2 all: how can disable or set my L1+L2 Cache to write trough etc.
[04:49] <Beldar> raj, Support here is per what is in the repos, if you have a rhetoric that proves needed use that is enough for help.
[04:50] <raj> causative, I'm on 14.04
[04:50] <raj> irssi version 0.8.16 has been released
[04:50] <causative> is it a big change from 0.8.15?
[04:50] <raj> ssl security
[04:50] <Beldar> raj, Many apps in the repos are not the latest.
[04:50] <raj> Beldar, I'm aware
[04:51] <Beldar> raj, download the tar from them and install
[04:51] <raj> and apt-remove what I have installed?
[04:51] <causative> do you really need ssl security in irc though, after all this is a public communications medium
[04:51] <lostlogin> I am having trouble with login on with my initial account on 14.04 that looks to have started after my last [dist-]upgrade.   That may be coincidental, the other odd thing was a keychain request after I attempted to setup ssh-agent.  I am able to log in using tty and newly added accounts are able to log in without a problem,  tty or into lightdm.
[04:51] <causative> currently 1595 people could be watching and logging us as we speak
[04:51] <lostlogin> I've searched around for a couple days but so for nothing looks to be detailed enough
[04:52] <Beldar> raj, I've never used that client, but that does make sense, your configs is all you need.
[04:52] <Bashing-om> Kawaiola: There does exit a means to enable the root account, I have been looking for the docs, have not found them. sorry.
[04:52] <raj> Beldar, and can I give apt-get a tarball?
[04:53] <lostlogin> not really sure what the next investigation option would be.  so any suggestions would be a helpful.
[04:53] <ObrienDave> Kawaiola, hold shift key while booting. that will give you the grub menu
[04:54] <rost> @serious question2 all: how can disable or set my L1+L2 Cache to write trough
[04:54] <Beldar> raj, no, it is installed different, should be a read me inside with instructions, it will not get support here though technically.
[04:54] <Kawaiola> ObrienDave: you mean after I type in my crypt password so it mounts the drive and everything
[04:54] <ObrienDave> before
[04:54] <raj> Beldar, I know how to install a tarball, but I would like to use apt-get to do it to keep things organized
[04:54] <rost> @serious question2 all: how can disable or set my L1+L2 Cache to write trough
[04:54] <raj> is apt-get able to install from a tarball?
[04:54] <Beldar> no
[04:55] <raj> that sucks
[04:56] <Beldar> raj, If you want organized and support here use the app in the repos. ;)
[04:56] <raj> the one without passwoded SSL certificates?
[04:56] <raj> rather have the secure version
[04:56] <Beldar> raj, Never used it I don't know, the one I use does so...........
[04:57] <Bashing-om> Kawaiola: Enable rootsudo -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo < -.
[04:58] <raj> Beldar, so there's no way to do something similar to step 4 here http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/a/511 with apt?
[05:00] <Beldar> raj, Aur is the arclinux repos
[05:00] <Beldar> archlinux
[05:00] <Kawaiola> Bashing-om: Okay I'll give a shot thank you
[05:00] <raj> yep
[05:00] <raj> I'm wondering if ubuntu has something similar
[05:01] <Bashing-om> Kawaiola: Good hunting... I am off at this time ! later all !
[05:01] <Beldar> raj, I can't really help this is a third party issue, not supported here.
[05:01] <Beldar> help anymore that is
[05:02]  * Beldar put the tinfoil counseling fedora in the closet
[05:04] <Kawaiola> Thanks for your help
[05:04] <lostlogin> I've also removed the home dir for the account and restored from /etc/skel.  This has also not worked.
[05:06] <lostlogin> I also do not see anything in logs that looks odd..  at least not to me.
[05:07] <rost> need help. need to know how i can set my L1+2 Cache 2 write trough on an fuji - lifebook S7020; did anyone know how to
[05:10] <rost> need to reboot, see late
[05:24] <faudzan> hi
[05:27] <chrirc> hi....i want to create wireless network with another computer...i have a router with built-in dsl modem and wifi. what else do i need?
[05:28] <Locke2002> Do you know how to set up a wireless network, apart from using Linux as part of it?
[05:29] <chrirc> i am new to wireless network and i need to know what i need to buy in terms of hardware
[05:29] <Locke2002> Do both your computers have wireless cards or USB?
[05:30] <chrirc> the other computer has wireless pci card....do i need wireless pci card for my computer too?
[05:31] <Locke2002> any kind of wireless, pci, usb
[05:31] <Locke2002> that should be all the hardware you need
[05:33] <chrirc> but on my computer i have the router/ modem with wifi connected  on an ethernet port...do i still need wireless card for my computer too?
[05:33] <Locke2002> Oh, ok, sorry
[05:33] <Locke2002> yeah, with the wired network and the wireless computer(s) with wifi devices
[05:34] <chrirc> so no need to buy any wireless card for my computer...right?
[05:35] <Locke2002> Right, if it's wired in
[05:38] <chrirc> all the wireless guides on the internet was about separate modem and router devices...mine is a router with built in modem and wifi on it...thats why i  was confused if it is suitable
[05:39] <HankMccoy> is it even possible to create a VHD in windows 8 disc manager that will work with Ubuntu all the tutorials have ppl booting windows 7&8 I want 8 and Ubuntu...
[05:39] <Locke2002> Ah. You should be fine if you are able to log into it. I've never heard of an ISP putting a password on it to keep you from setting it up yourself without paying their "multiple computers on the internet" tax, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was happening somewhere in the US
[05:40] <chrirc> i am from europe... i can log in to my router without password
[05:40] <Locke2002> Ok, you should be all set. Good luck :)
[05:41] <Mrua> mine had password , I just reset it and got the login info from a member of their tech team
[05:42] <chrirc> but now i need to find a guide for the settings i need to put on my router to network the two computers :)
[05:47] <chrirc> i know that if a laptop will use the password of my wifi can use my interner connection....but how can i be able to see this computer and share files with it or play games?
[05:49] <loa> what is way to create persistant iptables rules under ubuntu?
[05:56] <HankMccoy> is it even possible to create a VHD in windows 8 disc manager that will work with Ubuntu all the tutorials have ppl booting windows 7&8 I want 8 and Ubuntu...
[05:59] <HankMccoy> I finally got my oracle virtual box to work (self taught) and I want a working partition almost made one or just a VHD so I can run Linux
[06:09] <HankMccoy> well just let me know if you get a minute to respond
[06:12] <Ben64> HankMccoy: if you want to install ubuntu in vbox then do it... whats the problem?
[06:22] <HankMccoy> I already have oracle virtual box working I went into disc managment then action...create VHD.I have 99 gig unallocated VHD need to assign it to a drive and get my ISO on there I think that's how it works
[06:23] <HankMccoy> My flashdrive is to small for me to even load a proper browser with apt-get
[06:23] <Jordan_U> HankMccoy: Create a virtual DVD drive using the iso file, then boot from that and install Ubuntu normally.
[06:24] <HankMccoy> I am wondering if VHD will even run Ubuntu/Linux yeah VHD is virtual hard drive
[06:24] <Ben64> vhd is just the file extension vbox uses for drive images, it doesn't care what you do with it
[06:25] <Jordan_U> HankMccoy: The type of virtual drive used for storage has no effect on what operating systems you can use, just like the brand of hard drive in a physical machine doesn't limit OS usage.
[06:26] <HankMccoy> I understood what you were trying to tell me
[06:27] <Jordan_U> HankMccoy: Virtual Machines, which are associated with virtual hard drives and other virtual hardware, can be configured to present hardware to the OS that's more likely to work well for that OS, but 1: Virtualbox has settings for GNU/Linux and 2: I expect that all of Virtualbox's combinations of virtual hardware are supported by Ubuntu.
[06:41] <helmut_> hi
[06:42] <lastarms> hi helmut_

[07:01] <HackVictim1001> what I wanna know is without breaking ssh, how did he get a cron job in to do his dirty work. over the 4 days he used 14 different IP addys from China, to Viet Nam to  Pennsylvania
[07:02] <loa> here are so frequently appears questions about cron and hackers.
[07:02] <Beldar> bots?
[07:02] <loa> something wrong with ubuntu?

[07:03] <Jordan_U> HackVictim1001: What user's cron job was it added to?
[07:03] <loa> HackVictim1001, what installed on your box?
[07:03] <lastarms> HackVictim1001: how did you have a cron job running from the internet?
[07:03] <HackVictim1001> that is my question
[07:03] <loa> how strong password for sudo user was?
[07:03] <HackVictim1001> 26 digits
[07:04] <loa> and what installed was on that server?
[07:04] <lastarms> HackVictim1001: could you show us your log?

[07:05] <loa> strange.
[07:05] <loa> what cronjob it runs?
[07:05] <Jordan_U> HackVictim1001: What user's cron job was this password brute forcing script added to?
[07:05] <loa> if it file, you can check what user it was.
[07:06] <HackVictim1001> well here's the rub. my dumb arse ripped it off the network, and did a repartition and reinstall
[07:06] <Ben64> then you'll never know
[07:06] <HackVictim1001> I'm using testdisk and photorec to recover it now
[07:07] <black_13> i am trying to install the vmware tools but during the installation it says i can't find the header files?
[07:07] <HackVictim1001> yeah, I'm a moron, I just wanted whatever was in there OUT
[07:07] <HackVictim1001> I hope you understand that
[07:07] <lastarms> black_13: you need the linux-image-headers
[07:07] <HackVictim1001> sudo apt-get install linux-image-headers
[07:07] <loa> who are here have telepatic skills?
[07:07] <lastarms> HackVictim1001: cron is a job usually run by users.
[07:07] <loa> anyone?
[07:08] <lastarms> HackVictim1001: you are saying that someone is using cron to brute force something
[07:08] <HackVictim1001> yes I understand what cron does
[07:08] <HackVictim1001> yessir
[07:08] <lastarms> HackVictim1001: that means, one of your users, or your scripts are trying to do something
[07:08] <ObrienDave> loa, i failed mind reading class. most humans do ;)
[07:08] <HackVictim1001> well I had no scripts installed, and I'm the only user
[07:09] <HackVictim1001> no cron jobs in it yet, I mean I just installed it on saturday and got hit monday
[07:09] <Ben64> perhaps you were misinterpreting the auth.log
[07:09] <Vivek_VC> I am trying to install the puppet web logic server module
[07:09] <black_13> nothing called linux-image-headers
[07:09] <Vivek_VC> But the module is too large that I am not able to figure out where to start from.
[07:09] <Vivek_VC> Is there a simple howto for the wls and orawls module ?
[07:10] <loa> HackVictim1001, can't understand for what perpose then you installed ubuntu?
[07:10] <loa> if you don't do nothing.
[07:10] <HackVictim1001> umm no it was cron starts a job, bang bang 5 times from an IP addy somewhere in the world and it started over on a new ip address
[07:10] <loa> bang bang
[07:10] <Ben64> HackVictim1001: i really think you're reading the log file incorrectly
[07:11] <loa> cron is just local daemon.
[07:11] <HackVictim1001> I didnt have TIME to do anything, I did this at work, ended up getting done closing time saturday, closed sunday monday, bang monday night/tuesday morning
[07:12] <HackVictim1001> you tell me you cant run any kind of communicating binary from lowly local cron and make it talk to anywhere you like
[07:12] <loa> i think just someone tried to brute force your root password from network.
[07:12] <Ben64> HackVictim1001: did it look like this??? http://pastebin.com/nRc0ZquY
[07:13] <HackVictim1001> for 4 days straight?
[07:13] <loa> yes
[07:13] <loa> my server is under hard bruteforce erveryday.
[07:13] <loa> so i done few iptables rules for that.
[07:14] <loa> it is nothing special about it heare, it is normal situation for internet server.\
[07:14] <Jordan_U> HackVictim1001: What lead you to believe that cron was involved at all?
[07:14] <HackVictim1001> as a matter of fact it looked like 46 pages of that
[07:15] <loa> show logs then?
[07:15] <Ben64> HackVictim1001: so yes, it did look like my log snippet?
[07:15] <HackVictim1001> they are at work, I neglected to poke a hole for vnc on my way out today
[07:15] <Jordan_U> HackVictim1001: That's perfectly normal. Hundreds of thousands of machines are dedicated to just scouring random ip addresses for hosts with an open port 22, then trying to brute force login.
[07:16] <HackVictim1001> if its perfectly normal I sure don't like it
[07:16] <Jordan_U> HackVictim1001: I'd be more suspicious if you *didn't* have such things in your logs (mostly suspicious that you weren't actually connected to the interwebs properly :)
[07:17] <Ben64> well as long as you're connected to the internet and have an open port 22, you're going to get robots attempting to login
[07:17] <Jordan_U> HackVictim1001: The interent is a hostile place.
[07:17] <Ben64> it has nothing to do with cron whatsoever
[07:17] <HackVictim1001> oh no, it connected to the interwebs quite well
[07:17] <HackVictim1001> umm it keeps saying cron cron cron cron
[07:17] <Ben64> each line is separate
[07:19] <HackVictim1001> well if nothing else you guys made me feel so not all alone
[07:19] <HackVictim1001> its common misery
[07:19] <Ben64> not misery at all, nobody really cares about it
[07:20] <loa> Ben64, i care.  I'm running 32bit Lubuntu 14.04. I need skype but I cannnot find it in Software Center/Package Installer.
[07:35] <_[myth> Try 'sudo apt-get install skype'
[07:35] <Flonka> try going to skype's homepage
[07:35] <bazhang> !info skype partner | needskype
[07:35] <Flonka> I used download from ther.e
[07:35] <_[myth> There indeed is skype package in multiverse repo.
[07:35] <bazhang> it's in the partner repo
[07:35] <Quoexl> W: Conflicting distribution: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com precise-updates Release (expected precise-updates but got precise)
[07:35] <Quoexl> shouldnt that be http://us.archive.ubuntu.com precise/updates Release
[07:35] <_[myth> ....main?
[07:36] <Beldar> whowantstolivefo, That is a lot of ppa's you know they are supported only by them? you might just need to load that key error with sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys "Key"
[07:37] <Quoexl> that is truly a gaggle of ppa's
[07:37] <needskype> bazhang: how to connect to this partner repo?
[07:38] <Beldar> needskype, software sources or the sources.list make sure ticked on.
[07:38] <Quoexl> sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list find the 4 lines with # in front of the deb and delete the #, then sudo apt-get update

[08:27] <hebz0rl> hi is it possible to only list (not count) security updates?
[08:28] <Fudge> anyone experienced overclocking knocking out usb functionality on z87 gigabyte on Ubuntu
[08:28] <Beldar> hebz0rl, when, where and why?
[08:29] <MrCoin> hey ubuntu people, i am installing ubuntu on a macbook pro. there is an issue with the wifi. how can i install the wifi for the macbook pro?
[08:29] <Beldar> Fudge, describing the issue to the channel=help
[08:30] <hebz0rl> Beldar, i want to get the list via scripting and ssh, i have multiple hosts i want to get the list for, so i can check which updates are non problematic to update
[08:30] <Fudge> Beldar:  I just did
[08:31] <Beldar> hebz0rl, How would you know id problematic?
[08:31] <Beldar> !details | Fudge
[08:31] <hebz0rl> Beldar, because i know on which software our appliaction stack depends on
[08:32] <Fudge> like this https://teksyndicate.com/forum/overclocking/ubuntu-gone-nutz-after-overclock/165433
[08:33] <Beldar> hebz0rl, Ah, cool, not sure myself on security only, quick google foo shows lots of hits here is one. http://askubuntu.com/questions/152179/how-do-i-check-only-security-updates-from-the-command-line
[08:37] <hebz0rl> Beldar, ah i found that too but i was wondering if it is possible without copying around some files. i looked at apt-check and now i just patched it to print security updates sepperatly from updates but thx :D
[08:37] <Beldar> hebz0rl, I figured you had the skills to look, no problem. ;)
[08:38] <hebz0rl> Beldar, thx for the help ;D
[08:43] <ubuntubox> is AMD R7 250 GPU have proper drivers for Ubuntu? is it supported?
[08:44] <mamed> ok guyz . it realy annoys me . i try to set my dns in ubuntu 14.04 with vodafone vodem but it fails . can someone show me a way pls?
[08:46] <Beldar> ubuntubox, Some info, http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQ4MDM you might want to do some looking on the web I see some hits.
[08:48] <igor> mtorrent
[08:48] <ubuntubox> Beldar, so that means it is supported? with proprietary driver?
[08:49] <Beldar> ubuntubox, Not sure looks to be from the web in general, there is fglrx so.......
[08:49] <Beldar> proprietary are generally not suggested here is all.
[08:50] <ubuntubox> Beldar, ok
[08:50] <gry> What hardware is this again?
[08:51] <Beldar> gry, Directed at Whom?
[08:56] <MrCoin> hey ubuntu people, i am installing ubuntu on a macbook pro. there is an issue with the wifi. how can i install the wifi for the macbook pro?
[09:03] <Kvrmurthy> What is the issue? Any error message?
[09:04] <Kvrmurthy> Is WiFi switched on?
[09:06] <gry> MrCoin, wifi is builtin, with few exceptions of drivers. So it should try connecting, and it should produce an error message. The error message would help to understand what the issue is.
[09:06] <m1dnight> does anybody here use tmux?
[09:07] <m1dnight> Whenver I do ^d <arrow> to go to the next pane, it works
[09:07] <m1dnight> however,  I cna press the arrow again to go to another one
[09:07] <m1dnight> so when I want to go to the next pane and arrow up for my previous command I go to another pane
[09:09] <m1dnight> dju
[09:10] <m1dnight> mijne factorial wilt niet deftig werken :p
[09:10] <m1dnight> dacht dak er gauw ging zijn!
[09:10] <m1dnight> NIET DUS
[09:10] <nik^spotify> is there a way to disable the "Expo" feature in Unity?
[09:11] <nik^spotify> you can't turn it off in the Compiz settings because Unity plugin depends on it
[09:11] <nik^spotify> and I've tried unmapping the mouse button, but it always seems to fly into action on mouse button 5
[09:11] <nik^spotify> =/
[09:12] <m1dnight> wow, wrong channel
[09:12] <m1dnight> rofl sorry
[09:12] <m1dnight> (except for the tmux thing)
[09:15] <FourFire> hellopat, is there some issue with flash/IcedTea in firefox 30 ?
[09:20] <onthesta1rs> i just logged in to my laptop as normal but the launcher and top bar aren't there. my desktop background is visible but i cant even ctrl+alt+t to bring up a temrinal (14.04)
[09:22] <Beldar> onthesta1rs, Are you using proprietary graphic drivers?
[09:22] <onthesta1rs> yeah
[09:22] <Beldar> onthesta1rs, They do not follow kernel upgrades at times, have you had an upgrade?
[09:23] <onthesta1rs> possibly
[09:23] <onthesta1rs> would that happen during a normal sudo apt-get upgrade?
[09:24] <Beldar> onthesta1rs, A dist-upgrade is needed for kernels, however I would look at reloading them, just a guess at this point.
[09:24] <onthesta1rs> i see
[09:24] <onthesta1rs> how does one reload them
[09:25] <Beldar> onthesta1rs, How were they loaded originally
[09:25] <onthesta1rs> im not sure i follow
[09:25] <onthesta1rs> when does one load them
[09:26] <Beldar> onthesta1rs, If you are using proprietary graphic drivers you had to install them
[09:26] <onthesta1rs> oh i see, i thought you meant the kernel
[09:26] <onthesta1rs> first time round i installed via terminal
[09:30] <Beldar> onthesta1rs, This has been a mixed up communication that has gone circular, I can't help.
[09:30] <onthesta1rs> thanks anyway!
[09:31] <karab44> hello
[09:32] <WizJin> hi
[09:32] <karab44> When I watch youtube video my screen turns black and lock. This is normal when computer is idle but is this correct when watching videos? I don't remember I had it working that way before...
[09:33] <karab44> I am talking about fullscreen mode here
[09:33] <cfhowlett> karab44 immediate lockup or after viewing the video for some time?
[09:35] <karab44> some time of course, it all depends how do I set Brightness&Lock settings
[09:35] <karab44> it's set for 5 minutes when inactive
[09:36] <karab44> but watching video on player or youtube via browser shouldn't set machine as inactive
[09:36] <cfhowlett> karab44 see your power management and screensaver settings.  I'm guessing that your computer is going into screensaver/powersaving while the video is running.
[09:36] <karab44> yes, where do I find it?
[09:36] <cfhowlett> karab44 verify your settings - not sure where as I'm on xubuntu..  it's different for me
[09:37] <karab44> number of settings configuration is quite poor by default.
[09:39] <karab44> I can turn it on or off and set the timer
[09:39] <karab44> there are no exceptions to set
[09:39] <cfhowlett> karab44 try an alternate player then
[09:40] <karab44> I don't want to watch youtube on alternative players. Would you do that on my place?
[09:40] <cfhowlett> karab44 narrow the issue to a cause - it's an experiment
[09:41] <cfhowlett> karab44 for instance, try the chromium browser instead of firefox.
[09:41] <karab44> you mean play something in Mplayer and see what happen?
[09:41] <karab44> I can do that
[09:42] <user____> hi, I've installed ubuntu and have installed i3 window manager - since doing this ubuntu keeps forcing my keyboard layout to us. Right now I'm getting aruond that by typing 'setxkbmap gb'... how can I make ubuntu do this for me at boot up?
[09:43] <user____> my /etc/default/keyboard contains: XKBLAYOUT="gb"
[09:44] <sander_> всем привет )
[09:44] <cfhowlett> !ru|sander_
[09:50] <karab44> well, seems that using Video player there is no screen lock so it's good
[09:50] <karab44> why it's on youtube then?
[09:51] <cfhowlett> karab44 some obscure setting buried in the configurations.  BTW, logged in to YT or no.  If not, clear your FF settings/cache/config and reset to defaults
[09:52] <VA6DAH> Stupid question, is there anyway to scroll in nautilus (with a scroll wheel) while dragging a file/folder?
[09:56] <karab44> is caffeine right way to solve the issue?
[09:57] <karab44> is this behaviour a bug or oversight? I think 13.04 didn't had screen lock problems with flash video players...
[09:58] <cfhowlett> karab44 I don't know WHY and have never had a flash video issue on 12.04, so can't advise.  sorry.
[09:58] <karab44> yeah
[09:59] <karab44> it's pretty interesting
[09:59] <ikonia> to be honest, flash bugs, you're pretty much banging your head against a wall,
[09:59] <ikonia> the quicker you try to stop using/depending on flash, the better,
[10:00] <cfhowlett> karab44 I installed xubuntu-restricted-extras.  that seems to have cured all codec issues ...
[10:00] <karab44> html 5 for youtube is somekind of magic for me. I used it once when introduced and it just dissapered somewhere...
[10:02] <karab44> I just found option to enable html5 player for youtube. Let's see will that work
[10:03] <gry> yes, but not for all formats
[10:03] <gry> some people upload videos in formats which html5 does not read
[10:03] <karab44> yep, they mentioned that when enabling
[10:04] <karab44> this is weird because YT does many things to video when uploading. Why can't just convert all things to one, unified format
[10:04] <LordNikon55> gry: Youtube will automatically convert videos to a suitable format
[10:05] <SimonJai_> so i'm running Ubuntu 12.10 desktop, with 4 x 3TB HDD (zfs) and samba
[10:05] <SimonJai_> transfer speeds are terrible ><
[10:05] <SimonJai_> (i know i should run LTS server)

[10:05] <unopaste> karab44 you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[10:05] <SimonJai_> iperf gives me ~800Mbps, but Samba getting <10MB/s
[10:06] <SimonJai_> any suggestions how to debug?
[10:06] <Ben64> SimonJai_: well 12.10 is EOL, so you need to upgrade
[10:06] <SimonJai_> yeah i might do it this weekend to 14.04 LTS
[10:06] <SimonJai_> not sure what may break... better do a clonezilla backup
[10:07] <karab44> these formats actualy are not served by html5 player.
[10:07] <karab44> and setting html5 player enabled means "use it whenever possible"
[10:08] <karab44> ill give it a try. It seems it runs more smoothly than flash
[10:10] <StuckInComplicat> Hi. Ubuntu boots to a black screen. HP Pavilion 15-n003tx (http://www8.hp.com/in/en/products/laptops/product-detail.html?oid=5422964#!tab=specs), Windows 8 (64 bit) + Ubuntu 12.04 LTS as a dual boot. Encrypted my home directory, and performed a boot-repair at time of install (Paste-bin link for the boo-repair debug dump here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6738753/).
[10:10] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset|StuckInComplicat
[10:12] <karab44> It still turns off on html5 come ooon! :D
[10:16] <karab44> I don't like this locking anyway... Why anyone can suspend or power off my computer when it's locked?
[10:17] <karab44> it shouldn't be there
[10:17] <StuckInComplicat> I know I'm talking to a bot (ubottu) here- but if anyone else is listening - if the nomodeset parameter is the crux of the problem, how is it that the LiveUSB doesn't face the same problem?
[10:18] <StuckInComplicat> cfhowlett - if the nomodeset parameter is the crux of the problem, how is it that the LiveUSB doesn't face the same problem?
[10:18] <cfhowlett> StuckInComplicat EXCELLENT query!  IIRC, live session uses some form of "universal translator" driver which is NOT in use during actual installation.
[10:18] <gry> karab44, hello, one minute please.
[10:19] <LordNikon55> karab44: It's pointless to disallow power off when locked, as someone can still pull out the plug
[10:19] <StuckInComplicat> cfhowlett - I vote for incorporating that driver in ALL installations :D
[10:19] <cfhowlett> StuckInComplicat :)  understood
[10:20] <karab44> LordNikon55: not when workstation is hidden in a safe
[10:21] <karab44> these functions should be password protected as well.
[10:21] <gry> karab44, you may need to open »/etc/gdm/gdm.conf« as root and edit the AllowLogoutActions line. There is a guide at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=927819 but it may be outdated - please read to get an idea, but look at the file carefully.
[10:21] <karab44> gry: thank you :)
[10:21] <StuckInComplicat> cfhowlett - So the thing with my issue is, I think it does boot Ubuntu because I can type in my password, and then move the mouse to the top-right, press the up-arrow once, press Enter twice, and shut down! Atleast, it used to let me do that. But now it doesn't seem to be doing so. I went through the suggested fix, but I'm still nervous about breaking acpi
[10:21] <LordNikon55> So that's what computer security means, putting your computer in a safe
[10:21] <karab44> hahahaha yeah :)
[10:22] <ikonia> isn't gdm.conf dead now ?
[10:22] <karab44> attacking is not only done by cyberattacks but interception as well :)
[10:22] <cfhowlett> StuckInComplicat pose your original question again - someone with more knowledge than I (and there are many) will know more.
[10:22] <StuckInComplicat> cfhowlett - yeah.. I guess. Hence the IRC nick :D
[10:23] <gry> ikonia: What is the more modern way now? I don't have gdm installed, I don't know. A web search did not give me anything better.
[10:24] <karab44> it's something like lightgdm or something
[10:24] <Ben64> lightdm
[10:24] <karab44> yes
[10:25] <StuckInComplicat> I've an Ubuntu 12.04 dual boot (along with Win8). Ubuntu is either booting into a black screen, or not booting at all. During the time of the original installation, I'd encrypted my home folder - and as a result, I'm unable to access the Ubuntu files from a LiveUSB session. (Don't think there's anything there - but I'd like to confirm, before I erase Ubuntu and install again). IF that continues to not work, I'll use nomode
[10:25] <ikonia> gry: I /think/ it's modular now, I've not got it on this box so can't check, but there are some xml files in /etc/gdm.conf.d or something like that,
[10:25] <ikonia> gry: I've not got a box with it on so can't check, but I "think" gdm.conf is gone now.
[10:26] <StuckInComplicat> 1. Anyone have any suggestions on how to view files from an encrypted home drive? 2. Any other methods to fix "boot to black screen" other than nomodeset?
[10:26] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: change it the vesa xorg driver ?
[10:26] <gry> Ouch. I never learned to work with those *.d things. I hope they don't migrate from plain .conf files to that.
[10:26] <gry> karab44: What display manager are you using? Could you please doublecheck? "lightgdm" is ambiguous.
[10:26] <ikonia> lightgdm is lightdm ?
[10:26] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - I don't understand..
[10:26] <ikonia> (which isn't gdm)
[10:27] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: you can force xorg to use the "vesa" xorg module
[10:27] <karab44> I guess I meant lightdm
[10:27] <OttifantSir> I'd like to try the latest Enlightenment (E19), and looked at this: http://ubuntuportal.com/2014/06/how-to-install-enlightenment-19-desktop-environment-in-ubuntu-14-04-lts.html , but there is no instructions for the PGP-key. Anyone know how to add it?
[10:27] <LordNikon55> I wouldn't say lightdm is more "modern" than gdm, it does a whole lot less. Accessibility for instance
[10:27] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - a) How? b) What does the vesa xorg module do?
[10:27] <ikonia> I didn't see anyone see it was modedern LordNikon55
[10:28] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: I'm going to guess you have an nvidia graphics card ?
[10:29] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - Nope. AMD Radeon
[10:29] <ikonia> bad guess then
[10:29] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: either way the vesa xorg module is a "fail safe" low performance video card driver that should work with every single card, but not have good performance
[10:30] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - Booting in recovery mode should also revert to a low performance, basics only mode right? When I select ubuntu recovery mode first, and then proceed with the normal boot - it doesn't boot.. it throws up an error.
[10:31] <syeekick> ping me if you use steam libary family shaaring i've got a few questions
[10:31] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: "throws up an error" is not helpful,
[10:31] <ikonia> syeekick: use the steam channel
[10:31] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: tell us more about the error problem, that is helpful
[10:32] <antonio__> Hey folks...
[10:32] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - haha.. my bad. But I'm on the same machine, on Windows 8. I'd restart and quote the error, but from memory, I think it was something about some network connection failing... Does cli error, or soemthing like it ring a bell?
[10:32] <antonio__> For some reason a LOT of links I visit on this Ubuntu machine are having some weird characters added to the end...like in this link http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn25723-massive-ocean-discovered-towards-earths-core.html#.U5rLf3LabLc
[10:33] <ikonia> that should not have any impact on your visual issues
[10:33] <ikonia> antonio__: didn't you ask about this the other day
[10:33] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - I thought so too. But that's the last diagnostic message it prints to the the screen...before getting stuck
[10:33] <antonio__> ikonia: I think I did..I also think I passed out at the computer :d
[10:33] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: also boot into single user mode
[10:34] <gurgle> hey, i've just created a RAID 5 array using mdadm and it's currently being built (at about 50%), if i reboot will this break this process or will it pick up where it left off?
[10:34] <ikonia> antonio__: that is not ubuntu doing that
[10:34] <ikonia> antonio__: it's happening on other operating systems too,
[10:34] <ikonia> it looks like it's part of the website
[10:34] <ikonia> gurgle: let it finish
[10:34] <gurgle> ok great, thanks
[10:35] <antonio__> so other people have reported this?
[10:35] <StuckInComplicat> antonia__ : http://technicalblogging.com/getting-rid-of-random-characters-appended-to-the-urls-of-your-wordpress-posts/
[10:35] <ikonia> antonio__: there is nothing to report
[10:35] <StuckInComplicat> dammit typo
[10:35] <StuckInComplicat> antonio__ : http://technicalblogging.com/getting-rid-of-random-characters-appended-to-the-urls-of-your-wordpress-posts/
[10:36] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia - I didn't even know you could select a different boot mode - in terms of single or multiple users. How d'you do that?
[10:36] <ikonia> StuckInComplicat: there should be a boot menu item for it in grub, however I'd suggest just appending "single" to the bootline

[10:37] <justanothernoob> hello, I'm trying to install ubuntu on a pretty old machine. sadly the disk-drive doesn't work that well. it gives out some error 1000 crap. for some reason it handlex knoppix fine. I downloaded the ubuntu .iso with knoppix. can I use this .iso to install ubuntu without having to burn it first, directly out of knoppix?
[10:37] <Air-> ok
[10:37] <Air-> sorry
[10:37] <Air-> i need one root for scan :( can you help me?
[10:37] <Ben64> Air-: what does that mean
[10:37] <cfhowlett> !install|justanothernoob there is a method to install ubuntu from a previous linux install
[10:37] <ikonia> Air-: need root on what ? scan what ?
[10:38] <Air-> scan another roots ;)
[10:38] <StuckInComplicat> ikonia, cfhowlett - alright.. thanks. Going to reboot and check now.
[10:38]  * cfhowlett thinks this sounds flakey
[10:38] <ikonia> Air-: scan other roots ? please what are you talking about, what are you trying to do

[10:40] <lotuspsychje> !info e17 | OttifantSir
 I said E19, not E17.
[10:40] <ikonia> OttifantSir: I suggest you talk to the bodhilinux people, it's their repos for their distro
[10:41] <OttifantSir> ikonia: I have asked, but there is no activity
[10:41] <ikonia> OttifantSir: then wait for them to respond
[10:42] <g105b> I have a few hundred GB of data synced in an Amazon S3 bucket using OwnCloud instead of UbuntuOne ... my question is what apps are there to stream the music collection from the S3 bucket?

[10:42] <ikonia> welcome
[10:44] <ObrienDave> welcome for free
[10:44] <Air-> I WANT IP, USER , PASS
[10:44] <Air-> i want to scan roots
[10:44] <cfhowlett> Air- we want you to DROP THE CAPS ...
[10:44] <ikonia> Air-: ok, you don't make sense with what you ask
[10:45] <ikonia> Air-: are you trying to crack peoples passwords ?
[10:45] <LordNikon55> Air-: Try #fruitloops
[10:45] <cfhowlett> Air- we are not going to help you crack passwords.  wrong channel

[10:48] <dine909> hi there, i'm trying to get the settings panel for ubuntu to launch from terminal over X
[10:49] <gry> Someone here was looking for lightdm power/shutdown changes? Client crashed, I lost nick.
[10:49] <sfn> I have installed LXLE 14.04 ,how to install the Wicd network manager to the Panel?
[10:49] <dine909> does anyone know the name of the command?
[10:49] <Air-> lol
[10:49] <gry> sfn: Install wicd-gtk.
[10:49] <Air-> ;))
[10:49] <gry> sfn:  When you run wicd-gtk it adds itself to tray icon automatically.
[10:50] <gry> dine909: Which one?
[10:50] <lotuspsychje> sfn: do have trouble getting nm-applet maybe?
[10:50] <dine909> the entire setting s panel for ubuntu
[10:50] <dine909> namely the display settings
[10:50] <sfn> Ok thanks let me try now
[10:50] <dine909> as i have removed unity
[10:51] <gry> lotuspsychje, it is a different question - different software.
[10:51] <lotuspsychje> gry: im asking, because there's a known issue on nm-applet not to startup on lubuntu
[10:52] <lotuspsychje> gry: maybe thats why he searches for alternative
[10:52] <gry> Then ask about the real issue please. It would make more sense.
[10:53] <dine909> gry, i would have thought it would be one of the gnome- apps but i cant see one that fits the description
[10:54] <gry> lotuspsychje,  sorry, I see your point. You were trying to ask someone whether that's their real issue. That does make sense.
[10:54] <gry> dine909, there is a settings "panel"?
[10:55] <dine909> s/panel/application
[10:55] <sfn> I have tried "sudo apt-get install wicd-gtk", it is not added to the tray
[10:56] <dine909> the app that contains all the 'settings' - y'know, the one that looks like they ripped off osx
[10:56] <histo> sfn: you have to run the application for it to show in the tray
[10:57] <histo> sfn: wicd-client --tray
[10:57] <dine909> this app: http://iloveubuntu.net/pictures_me/system_settings%20symbolic%20123.png
[10:57] <gry> sfn: You have to start it, it does not start when you install. Run "wicd-gtk" in Terminal.
[10:57] <gry> dine909: I see.
[10:58] <lotuspsychje> histo: that multisystem usb creator worked out nicely the other day, got 6 iso's on 1 stick now: lubuntu,ubuntu and xubuntu both 32 and 64bit
[10:58] <histo> sfn: it should also create an autostart file in /etc/xdg/autostart/wicd-tray.deskop that should start on your login
[10:58] <histo> lotuspsychje: cool, sad that there was so much trouble with it. It shouldn't have been that difficult.
[10:59] <gry> dine909: gnome-control-center probably.
[10:59] <Titussss> hello i have one question. how to remove permamently  desktop enviroment?
[10:59] <cfhowlett> !nounity|Titussss
[11:00] <cfhowlett> !flavors|Titussss you could also try a different flavor for no unity
[11:00] <gry> cfhowlett, not the question? Or am I mistaken?
[11:00]  * gry head desks.
[11:00] <Titussss> I want to remove xfcace(xubuntu)
[11:00] <Titussss> and  want to restore unity login screen
[11:00] <sfn> Thanks, now icon is added to the tray
[11:00] <Titussss> from that xubuntu one
[11:01] <Titussss> mine sys is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
[11:01] <dine909> gry, thanks - i see whats happened, it got removed when i removed unity then did an apt-get autoremove
[11:02] <gry> dine909, did the package I mentioned actually do what you expect? I'm not 100% sure it's the correct package name. Would be interested in your word.
[11:02] <sfn> Thanks histo and gry, now icon is added to the tray
[11:03] <dine909> gry, yes precisely ! thanks very much
[11:03] <gry> dine909, sfn: No problem. Feel free to stick around if it doesn't bother you.
[11:03] <dupingping> http://askubuntu.com/questions/482734/yelp-package-building-problem
[11:03] <dupingping> why this problem is occurred?
[11:04] <dine909> thanks will do!
[11:04] <histo> dupingping: looks like because you are building it within screen
[11:04] <dupingping> then, what do i do?
[11:04] <histo> dupingping: is there a reason you are building it from source?
[11:05] <histo> !info yelp precise
[11:05] <sfn> thanks gry. I will
[11:05] <Titussss>  I want to remove xfcace(xubuntu)  and  want to restore unity login screen   from that xubuntu one
[11:05] <piliman974> Hi
[11:06] <histo> !pureubuntu | Titussss
[11:07] <six86> Hey. I installed ubuntu on a carPC and the Network interfaces are called p1p1 and p4p1... Thats strange. How can i change them easily? In Ubuntu 12.04 they were correctly named eth0 and eth1.
[11:07] <lotuspsychje> six86: its device related, had a user with same issue last time
[11:08] <lotuspsychje> six86: you get this automatic
[11:08] <histo> six86: lotuspsychje just wait until systemd gets here
[11:08] <Titussss> i want to remove just some desktop envroments not all
[11:08] <six86> lotuspsychje: so its a regression since 12.04?
[11:08] <lamrz> hello everyone, I just recovered keyring files and pasted them into keyring folder of the system, which is an existing system, where I'd once viewed them before, too. but now the password, while correct, isnt accepted. assuming the file has been recovered intact, where could the problem be lying?
[11:09] <histo> Titussss: those directions are specific for removing xfce is that not what you wanted to do?
[11:09] <anton03> why does multiple monitors on ubuntu behaviour in an inept way
[11:09] <histo> !details | anton03
[11:10] <anton03> eg. if you drag firefox/youtube onto the 2nd screen from main screen it's too hard
[11:10] <histo> six86: not a regression http://www.itworld.com/software/348313/change-network-adapter-name-ubuntu
[11:10] <ObrienDave> anton03, because it does not work like windows ;)
[11:11] <histo> anton03: what's too hard?
[11:11] <six86> histo: I have to install it onaround 20 boxes... so changing it manually... i don't know
[11:11] <histo> six86: why worry about changing it?
[11:12] <six86> maybe there's no problem, but I read some software depends on it being eth0. And we have another project where we are using 12.04 with the same boxes, so people get confused
[11:13] <histo> six86: Are all these installs on the same hardware?
[11:13] <six86> histo: yes. Only the ubuntu version differs
[11:14] <histo> six86: ahh well you could push that file out to all the installs. Keep in mind this http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/  is coming in the future also.
[11:14] <Titussss> is that cmmands will install from scratch whole unity?
[11:14] <anton03> histo: it can't be done
[11:14] <Titussss> or just unistall one enviroment
[11:14] <anton03> histo: not too easily anyway
[11:14] <Titussss> such as xubuntu-deskto
[11:14] <histo> anton03: Do you have it set as one desktop or two?
[11:15] <histo> Titussss: you asked about removing xfce correct?  the section on that page titled Remove Xubuntu is what you want.
[11:15] <histo> Titussss: or you can just remove the xfce packages and leave all the abiword etc.. stuff behind

[11:34] <zergut> hello, how to create USB for win8 installation from Ubuntu?
[11:35] <ObrienDave> unetbootin, tuxboot, startup disk creator? take your pick?
[11:37] <zergut> ObrienDave: is it correct ot use it for win8?
[11:37] <ObrienDave> dunno, don't see why it shouldn't work with a bootable ISO
[11:39] <zergut> ObrienDave: thank you
[11:39] <dkorras> Hi All. I have downloaded the Ubuntu Server 14.04 ISO but when I compile a bootable USB stick with it and attempt to install it on my server, it won't get past selecting a mirror unless I connect to the internet and then it takes about 1 hour to install
[11:39] <dkorras> how can i get the USB to install the server wihtout needing the internet?
[11:40] <lostlogin> Is this channels log online anywhere?   I ;m not sure how to check if anyone responded to my previous questions and my client was not tracking enough history.
[11:40] <cfhowlett> !pxe|dkorras
[11:41] <bcvery> !logs | lostlogin
[11:41] <cfhowlett> !ltsp
[11:41] <cfhowlett> dkorras see above
[11:41] <lostlogin> I did just find byt starting to log in by hand that the user that is unable to log in is able to log in after I recreated the home dir from skel.  I just forgot to chown the home dir back to that user so .Xauthority could not be locked.
[11:41] <dkorras> cfhowlett, pxe?
[11:42] <cfhowlett> dkorras yes.  an installatiton method which (as I understand) allows you to set a local mirror i.e. your ISO for mass deployment
[11:42] <gradis> hello
[11:42] <lostlogin> Still not sure what has stopped the login though.  I am guessing it has to do with the path not being set.  perhpas something in my bashrc...
[11:42] <cfhowlett> dkorras if that's what you need ...
[11:42] <histo> allstarsnorks2: check if it's in backports or if there is a ppa available.
[11:43] <cfhowlett> gradis greetings.  ask your ubuntu question

[11:44] <dkorras> no thats not what i am looking for.
[11:44] <ytrezq> Hello, How I can convert a flv video to mp4 in ubuntu?
[11:45] <ytrezq> cfhowlett: (sorry)
[11:45] <histo> ytrezq: use 0one of the many video converters
[11:45] <ikonia> ytrezq: ask in the #debian channel -
[11:45] <cfhowlett> ytrezq avconv will do  iit
[11:45] <dkorras> I have an ISO on a USB but it wont install unless the internet is connect to this PC
[11:45] <zergut> histo: thank you
[11:45] <histo> dkorras: choose not to update packages during the installation
[11:45] <dkorras> i.e: it's downloading all the files from the internet instead of the ISO
[11:45] <cfhowlett> dkorras sorry.  then disconnect your internet and install.  you'll still need to set a mirror and connect if you want upgrades
[11:45] <histo> dkorras: there's a checkbox for that.
[11:46] <dkorras> which is taking forever to install, i need it to install ONLY from the USB/ISO
[11:46] <ytrezq> cfhowlett: I'm just looking for a simple command line tool...
[11:46] <ikonia> ytrezq: are you using debian or ubuntu
[11:46] <ikonia> ytrezq: which OS are you using
[11:46] <ikonia> ytrezq: please be honest
[11:46] <cfhowlett> ytrezq avconv is simple command line tool
[11:46] <dkorras> this is Ubuntu server, not Desktop.
[11:47] <cfhowlett> ytrezq what is the output of cat /etc/issue
[11:47] <dkorras> there is no option to not install updates as far as i can see
[11:47] <histo> dkorras: unplug the net and install
[11:48] <dkorras> histo, doesnt work i have tried
[11:48] <cfhowlett> dkorras nah, man.  if there's not internet, there's no updates ...
[11:49] <histo> dkorras: Are you using the net install iso or the server iso?
[11:49] <ssddkkaall> hi all
[11:50] <dkorras> under expert mode: Download installer components
[11:50] <dkorras> didn't i down the correct ISO?
[11:50] <histo> dkorras: how big is the iso?
[11:50] <cfhowlett> dkorras mini or net install ISO then
[11:50] <cfhowlett> dkorras looks like not ...
[11:50] <cfhowlett> ssddkkaall ask your ubuntu questions
[11:50] <ssddkkaall> first
[11:50] <dkorras> as far as I know the Server ISO, but it seems as if it's the NET ISO
[11:50] <histo> dkorras: I can assure you the server iso has everything needed to install and more on the iso without network needed
[11:51] <dkorras> its 564MB
[11:51] <histo> dkorras: yeah that's the net iso
[11:51] <ssddkkaall> how easy it to upgrafe from natty to the most recent version
[11:51] <dkorras> where do i get the Server ISO
[11:51] <histo> dkorras: ubuntu.com
[11:51] <cfhowlett> ssddkkaall download trust, clean install   easy.
[11:51] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade|ssddkkaall otherwise a huge PITA
[11:51] <histo> dkorras: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server
[11:52] <dkorras> i completely understand, but i got this off the Ubuntu website, under the Server download section
[11:52] <cfhowlett> ytrezq keep it in channel
[11:52] <ytrezq> cfhowlett: It don't matter
[11:53] <cfhowlett> dkorras there are multiple OS's - you just grabbed the wrong one.  it happens
[11:53] <dkorras> i thought something wasn't right as i have insatlled many ubuntu server and this is the first one giving me this issue
[11:53] <ytrezq> (for debian or ubuntu)
[11:54] <dkorras> that's where I am and once i download it, it downloads the net ISO not the full
[11:54] <cfhowlett> dkorras you selected the NET iso, not the full ISO.  read the details
[11:55] <dkorras> http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04-server-amd64.iso = 564MB from ubuntu.com
[11:56] <histo> ytrezq: mencoder?
[11:56] <histo> ytrezq: or ffmpeg
[11:56] <cfhowlett> ytrezq what is the output of cat /etc/issue
[11:57] <dkorras> please can you send me the full URL to an ISO you can get, i want to see if the SA mirrors are messing with me
[11:57] <histo> dkorras: 64bit or 32bit?
[11:57] <dkorras> when i go to Ubuntu.com, Downloads>Server>ARM is where it takes me
[11:58] <dkorras> 64bit please
[12:00] <ytrezq> 64 bts
[12:00] <ytrezq> 64 bits
[12:00] <histo> dkorras: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04-server-amd64.iso
[12:00] <allstarsnorks2> Ubuntu 12.04.4 is giving me GNOME 2 instead of GNOME 3.4 though
[12:00] <histo> !info gnome precise
[12:01] <histo> allstarsnorks2: what package are you trying to install?
[12:01] <allstarsnorks2> gnome-shell histo
[12:02] <histo> allstarsnorks2: do you have a weird ppa enabled or something because it's 3.4
[12:02] <histo> !info gnome-shell precise | allstarsnorks2
[12:02] <dkorras> is 564MB correct because that's the ISo i am getting as well as on a mirror in UK
[12:02] <FourFire> heheh http://i.imgur.com/l7YAqJy.jpg
[12:03] <etronik> Hi everyone - got a couple issues with recent upgrade to 14.04, a) does not recognize a wireless mouse... how do I configure it ?
[12:03] <cfhowlett> !md5sum|dkorras 564 is the correct size.  verify the ISO, then verify the USB
[12:03] <histo> dkorras: yeah that's coorect 564M
[12:04] <histo> dkorras: here's the hashes http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/MD5SUMS

[12:11] <Ezzio> mby should i use other player?
[12:11] <cfhowlett> Ezzio I'd suggest your sudo apt-get purge rhythmbox then reinstall it to test
[12:12] <histo> Ezzio: check your key mappings

[12:13] <Ezzio> how i can do dis?

[12:32] <ikonia> Ezzio: you just ssh to it's hostname or IP address
[12:32] <ikonia> as long as dns resolves it and there is a network route - that's it

[12:35] <histo> Ezzio: port forward ssh to your computer on your router,  then from whatever client ssh username@youripaddress
[12:35] <LordNikon55> Ezzio: You need a static IP ideally, or use a service like http://www.noip.com/free/
[12:35] <Ezzio> but i have problematic issue with mine  net
[12:35] <Ezzio> i do not have router.... i gues

[12:37] <Sm21> POPE
[12:37] <Ezzio> afk 10 min.
[12:37] <jechadwell99> After an update this morning Unity has no launcher or panel. I cannot use any terminal. I reset Compiz using the manager but still nothing happens.
[12:37] <phacele55> LordNIkon55: I have been all over google, only found one snippet but still wasn't that helpful
[12:37] <Sm21> ubuntu sux
[12:38] <gry> sm21: why did he come here?
[12:38] <The0x539> unity sux
[12:38] <Sm21> unity sux
[12:38] <histo> dkorras: are you doing just a regular install?
[12:38] <The0x539> ubuntu does not
[12:38] <dkorras> correct
[12:38] <Sm21> ubuntu is a fanboy OS
[12:38] <Sm21> its lost touch
[12:38] <histo> Sm21: do you have a ubuntu related question?
[12:38] <gry> sm21: welcome to reality and thank you, you now can tweak it and fix whatever you actually dislike and find impossible to configure
[12:38] <Sm21> i have the balls to say what everyone is thinking
[12:39] <gry> sm21: rants are the next door
[12:39] <gry> sm21: not in here please :)
[12:39] <jechadwell99> I can log in as another user but not as my main user.
[12:40] <histo> !ops Sm21
[12:40] <jechadwell99> Can someone please help?
[12:41] <histo> dkorras: regular install is working fine. Let me try enabling network hardware but not a connection.
[12:41] <ytrezq> cfhowlett : Ok I used vlc...
[12:41] <jechadwell99> Im really stuck with this and need to do work.
[12:42] <dkorras> could it be because on this particular server there is a WLAN card?
[12:42] <histo> !patience | jechadwell99
[12:43] <histo> dkorras: I'm testing that right now.
[12:43] <dkorras> histo, thank you
[12:43] <jechadwell99> I searched all the forums and nothing worked
[12:44] <jechadwell99> Where are the compiz settings located?
[12:44] <jechadwell99> I could try to just copy the  over from another user.
[12:46] <CrypticByte> I swear ubuntu is slow downloading :P
[12:46] <CrypticByte> I get 105MBps I know its not my end
[12:47] <ubuntuser13> jechadwell99: can you please repeat your question?  bcoz i connected only few seconds ago.
[12:48] <histo> dkorras: ok when dhcp failed I selected do not configure network at this time and it continued
[12:48] <histo> CrypticByte: you just had a new distro released
[12:49] <histo> CrypticByte: you could try different mirrors or use a torrent if you are downloading the iso
[12:49] <dkorras> i went cancel and then do not configure network
[12:49] <histo> dkorras: yeah then it asks me for hostname, user etc...
[12:49] <dkorras> same here and then asks me to select a mirror
[12:50] <histo> dkorras: let me keep going then
[12:50] <histo> dkorras: partitioning now.
[12:50] <histo> dkorras: Are you doing expert install?
[12:51] <dkorras> no the regular install
[12:51] <histo> dkorras: well it's installing fine here.  No mirror selection yet.
[12:51] <histo> From memory that's at the end of the installation
[12:51] <dkorras> i am now trying a new USB with the ISO on
[12:53] <dkorras> new USB and ISo still the same issue
[12:54] <histo> dkorras: when is it asking you to select a mirror after it copies files?
[12:54] <histo> dkorras: and did you iso hash match that of the server iso from that link I gave you?
[12:54] <dkorras> no before, apparently it's "Dwnloading Installation files"
[12:55] <histo> dkorras: You still have a network connection then somehow.
[12:55] <histo> dkorras: maybe wlan is connecting to a nearby open network?
[12:55] <dkorras> it may be the WIfi
[12:55] <histo> dkorras: is this a wlan card or a laptop?
[12:55] <dkorras> WLAN car
[12:56] <histo> dkorras: switch tty's and ip link list
[12:56] <histo> dkorras: you could ip set wlan0 down
[12:57] <Almano> Hello how can i make pure kde plasma looks like that one from OpenSuse?
[12:57] <histo> Almano: kde-look.org
[12:58] <Almano> i am newbie so can you lead me how to? and i do not know what packages will make mine desktop similar to that opensuse. I love that loook:)
[12:58] <histo> dkorras: sorry ip link wlan0 set down
[12:58] <dkorras> brb going to try something
[12:59] <histo> Almano: you'd have to figure out what icons and backgrounds etc.. they are using. Perhaps the #kubuntu room would be more appropriate.
[12:59] <gry> Almano: many people don't know what the other distro looks like. If you find a screenshot, they may suggest it in the room histo mentioned.
[13:02] <Almano> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZhcMBJDNZc
[13:03] <Almano> i want to make ubuntu with kde like this
[13:03] <Almano> what should i do
[13:03] <Almano> ?
[13:06] <dkorras> histo, i hink i found the issue
[13:06] <histo> Almano: /join #kubuntu and ask there
[13:06] <histo> dkorras: What was it?
[13:06] <dkorras> it's YUMI
[13:06] <Almano> ok
[13:06] <dkorras> YUMI, replace the .32 files on the ISO
[13:06] <histo> dkorras: that's odd. well I couldn't even get yumi to work in linux.
[13:06] <histo> dkorras: their deb is broken as far as I can tell recently
[13:07] <dkorras> it was on my Windows PC
[13:07] <histo> dkorras: .32 files?
[13:07] <dkorras> will check now what files it removed
[13:08] <histo> dkorras: diff directory1 directory2
[13:09] <dkorras> I'm on the Windows PC now so i will tell you shortly
[13:09] <dkorras> another thing, can the ubuntu server be put in to Suspend?
[13:14] <histo> dkorras: yes with power management stuff installed. Not sure why you would want to do that.
[13:15] <dkorras> histo, the files repalced by YUMI's own files are: vesamenu.c32, mednu.32,chan.c32 all in iso\islolinux\
[13:16] <dkorras> histo, this server is for a headless media center for a client, so only when the video's are needed will the machine required to be on and the other times need to be suspended. Can you help me with that?
[13:16] <histo> dkorras: Not at them moment
[13:17] <dkorras> ok, thank you though for all your help
[13:17] <histo> dkorras: I'm sure others can if you have specific questions. There may even be a howto online somewhere. But I have to go for awhile.
[13:17] <histo> dkorras: no problem anytime.
[13:27] <cenotes> ubuntu rocks! :D
[13:28] <anton03> cenotes: why?
[13:29] <cenotes> anton03: just in general.. i love the linux kernel
[13:29] <anton03> cenotes: what about GNU
[13:30] <cenotes> anton03: haha... GNU is the system and Linux is one of its kernels ;) quoteBy: Richard Stallman
[13:31] <dkorras> can anyone help me put the Ubuntu server into suspend after no activity
[13:31] <cenotes> anton03: you know any very good teminal irc caht clients like e.g. 'weechat'
[13:33] <fellipe> hi, where is the 70-persistent-net.rules in ubuntu 12.04 server?
[13:33] <LordNikon55> cenotes: http://tools.suckless.org/ii/
[13:34] <cenotes> LordNikon55: thank you! i will take a look into that! apreciate it!
[13:34] <anton03> cenotes: you tried iirc
[13:35] <Lakii> irssi ?
[13:35] <genii> fellipe: /etc/udev/rules.d/
[13:36] <skinux> Can someone help me with merging partitions sda10 and sda12, here is a screenshot of paritions: http://imagebin.ca/v/1PinLIYz7uDS
[13:36] <fellipe> genii, yeah but there is no such file
[13:36] <anton03> cenotes: irssi i mean sorry
[13:37] <ikonia> skinux: not going to happen
[13:37] <skinux> ikonia: Helping or merging?
[13:37] <cenotes> anton03: yes, i'm looking for something lightweight that is directly within the terminal..
[13:37] <ikonia> skinux: merging
[13:37] <genii> fellipe: Perhaps you have no network adapters
[13:37] <anton03> cenotes: it runs in the terminal
[13:37] <skinux> Okay. Then I need to move sda10 to sda12.
[13:38] <ikonia> skinux: no, they are not next to each other, so can't "join" or interact with each other
[13:38] <ikonia> skinux: also what partition table format is this, gpt or msdos
[13:38] <cenotes> anton03: haven't# checkt that one ... was talking about mirc ...i will have a look into that as well. thank you!
[13:38] <skinux> Umm...Ext4?
[13:38] <ikonia> skinux: no, thats a file system
[13:39] <skinux> GPT then I guess
[13:39] <ikonia> skinux: I don't understand how you've got more than 4 parttions, but no extended partition
[13:39] <skinux> What do you mean?
[13:39] <genii> fellipe: If you have the situation where your network adapter is being called something like p2p1 or such instead of eth0 eth1 etcetera, then I'm not sure where that name is being decided from
[13:39] <ikonia> ahh, so it's a gpt partition table, not msdos
[13:39] <skinux> Ext4 is extended isn't it?
[13:39] <ikonia> I mean exactly what i've just said, is it an Msdoc partition table, or a GPT
[13:39] <anton03> cenotes: i think youll find most people choose irssi over everything else
[13:39] <ikonia> skinux: ext4 is a file system, not a partition
[13:40] <skinux> I don't know then.
[13:40] <ikonia> skinux: it appears you may have a problem with that disk,
[13:40] <cenotes> anton03: what's so special about it?
[13:40] <skinux> Machine came with Windows 8 if that helps any
[13:40] <ikonia> skinux: unless it is a gpt partition table,
[13:40] <ikonia> skinux: not really,
[13:40] <ikonia> skinux: although I suspect it's a gpt partition table
[13:40] <skinux> How do I determine which it is?
[13:41] <ikonia> parted normally shows you
[13:41] <skinux> gparted or parted?
[13:41] <ikonia> skinux: either way, you won't be mixing sda10 and 12
[13:41] <skinux> How do I get parted to tell me?
[13:42] <ikonia> when you run parted against it, it should tell you
[13:42] <skinux> 'sudo parted /dev/sda' ??
[13:42] <ikonia> yes
[13:42] <ikonia> then print
[13:43] <skinux> Yes, it's GPT
[13:43] <anton03> cenotes: im not sure. im sort of new to it myself. i've got nothing to complain about though so far.
[13:43] <skinux> I'll have to look up GPT to see what that menas
[13:44] <ikonia> skinux: it's just a name
[13:44] <skinux> I'm reading on Wikipedia about it
[13:44] <anton03> GPT = GUID partition table
[13:44] <cenotes> anton03: thank you again! i will give it a try and have fun with it, i guess :D /gracefulbow
[13:46] <skinux> So, should I move /usr/ directories to the other partition or move entire Ubuntu installation?
[13:47] <skinux> GRUB isn't installed to MBR, so moving entire installation may or may not be a chore.
[13:47] <ikonia> skinux: move /usr ???
