[18:30] <daevski> escott, this one was in the closet :-\ not sure how I have so many bad drives!
[18:30] <mithran> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448158/
[18:31] <escott> rollitup, sorry yes. whatever the correct date should be
[18:31] <escott> rollitup, did you do a really big update
[18:32] <rollitup> yes it was i remember 350 mb approx
[18:32] <escott> daevski, if you were using fakeraid then you might need special setup to read the data
[18:33] <john__> l
[18:33] <daevski> escott, that one shouldn't be raided, MIght just be broken also. Strange.
[18:33] <mithran> bekks:  do you got it?
[18:33] <osse> I'm trying to determine the installation date of an ubuntu server I'm running. It has been upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 during its lifetime. Any advice on how to do it? I tried stat'ing various files in /etc but that's not reliable (i.e. ltrace.conf was supposedly last modified in 2009 which is clearly wrong as I first got it up and running sometime last dec-jan)
[18:34] <escott> rollitup, i did not see anything particularly nasty in that update
[18:34] <escott> rollitup, but i did only see the last bit of it
[18:34] <drPoo> how does one add an application to the "open with another application" menu on 12.10???
[18:34] <Walther> What is the package that causes Firefox to ask "Install x to get better.."
[18:34] <rollitup> so do u think i should keep hopes or getting this sorted or formatting and doing it all over again is the only option
[18:35] <Walther> I'd like to remove that "feature"; I don't want to install Launchpad/Gmail/any integration
[18:35] <escott> osse, head /var/log/ANYTHING
[18:35] <mithran> i  cannot find the system drives just only see the file system:(
[18:36] <drPoo> how does one add an application to the "open with another application" menu on 12.10???
[18:36] <escott> rollitup, i dont know what you upgraded so i cant really say. if you had a failed upgrade i would apt-get -f install within a chroot
[18:37] <rollitup> you mean i could use this command using the terminal from the live USB ?
[18:37] <bekks> mithran: That werent the commands I told you.
[18:37] <bekks> mithran: Pastebin "sudo fdisk -l" please.
[18:37] <bekks> mithran: And "sudo blkid -g; sudo blkid" please.
[18:38] <escott> rollitup, within the chroot yes
[18:39] <mithran> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448171/
[18:39] <rollitup> escott:  i used chroot apt-get -f installand it outputs chroot:: cannot change root diretory to apt-get: No such file or directory
[18:40] <escott> rollitup, that whole thing with the mount and the mount --bind etc. you would have to redo it
[18:41] <osse> escott: I found some logs in /var/log/installer. All have the same modify date, Feb 2. I think that might be right
[18:42] <mithran> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448174/
[18:42] <clear`> anyone have any recommendation for business software, i need to keep up with clients, invoices and payments
[18:42] <daevski> escott, I think I got it. I used a brand new drive, used fdisk to create partition, mkfs.ntfs on it now for windows to be able to read the files I copy over. That sound about right?
[18:44] <rollitup> escott: in the process of rebooting i lost the chat transcript for the --bind command to chroot
[18:44] <escott> clear`, lwn.net has written a number of articles on the financial accounting aspect of that

[18:45] <escott> daevski, sure... not sure what your goal is but that sounds fine

[18:45] <g0th> hi
[18:45] <sfdsfd> I cannot find a certain answer as to I need to format a USB drive in order to use it for Ubuntu installation.
[18:45] <g0th> after I ran an update the flashplugin doesn't seem to work anymore
[18:45] <daevski> escott, Just trying to backup files that window will be able to read. Thanks again.
[18:45] <Cyberburn> hi g0th
[18:45] <malrog> Hi im trying to install hitman blood money with wine but i get an error when it tries to install and it stops anybody know what can be the problem?
[18:46] <g0th> When I open a site it is loading forever but I just see a black screen
[18:46] <g0th> I run ubuntu precise
[18:46] <sfdsfd> I have a 1 TB HDD, so would my other files still be there during and after the installation?
[18:46] <rollitup> !chroot | rollitup
[18:47] <g0th> also, isn't there already a new release out for a while?
[18:47] <g0th> I doesn't show up in the update manager!

[18:49] <sw0rdfish> how can I install the suggested packages along with what I want
[18:49] <sw0rdfish> there's tons of them
[18:49] <mithran> i  cannot find the system drives just only see the file system:(
[18:49] <bekks> mithran: Where is "sudo fdisk -l"?
[18:49] <llutz> sw0rdfish: if you really want that, use apt-get --install-suggests
[18:50] <IdleOne> sw0rdfish: sudo apt-get install --install-suggests package
[18:50] <sw0rdfish> yeah I just saw that in the manual guys thanks :D
[18:50] <IdleOne> sw0rdfish: but they are suggested, not absolutely needed, if they were needed they would get installed
[18:50] <Catbuntu> Hi

[18:51] <dr_willis> mithran: try mounting them by hand
[18:51] <nashant> how do you edit grub2 entries via terminal?
[18:51] <bekks> mithran: Everything is fine. sda1, sda5 and sda6 are NTFS partitions of your Windows.
[18:51] <sw0rdfish> they're mostly docs... IdleOne and autoconf whatever it is
[18:52] <mithran> dr_willis: i can't even find in my nautilus
[18:52] <dr_willis> nashant: edit the files in /etc/grub.d
[18:52] <dr_willis> mithran:  use the terminal
[18:52] <IdleOne> sw0rdfish: won't hurt if you install them. I was just saying :)
[18:52] <nashant> cheers dr_willis
[18:52] <dr_willis> !mount | mithran
[18:52] <mithran> dr_willis:  can you guid me?
[18:53] <dr_willis> mithran:  read the mount wiki guide firsy
[18:53] <mithran> dr_willis:  just "sudo !mount"
[18:53] <bekks> mithran: No. Thats not enough.
[18:53] <dr_willis> READ what the bot said
[18:54] <mithran> bekks:  then ?
[18:54] <bekks> mithran: Read what the bot said.
[18:54]  * dr_willis spends time writing docs.... no one reads...
[18:55] <dr_willis> mounting filesystems is a core linux skill/concept
[18:55] <msh> hello everybody
[18:56] <mithran> dr_willis: bekks http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448199/
[18:56] <nashant> dr_willis: after editing the /etc/grub.d files do I need to do grub-update?
[18:56] <dr_willis> nashant:  always...
[18:56] <bekks> mithran: Read what the bot said.
[18:56] <bekks> mithran: You didnt read it until now.
[18:57] <msh> i want to know how could i change the theme in ubuntu 12.04?
[18:57] <nashant> dr_willis: I'm hoping you might be able to help with my issue. I'm using an integrated ati 6530d and when I try and boot my display just goes blank and I get 'no signal'. Any idea why this would be?
[18:58] <dr_willis> msh theres some nice themes in different ppas and sites. like  webupd8
[18:59] <dr_willis> nashant:  grub menu using a res not supported by the monitor.  set grub to use the basic  text menu. in /etz/ddefault/grub
[19:01] <sw0rdfish> IdleOne, thank you sir :D
[19:01] <sw0rdfish> I have your go... I am proceeding :)
[19:02] <vitimiti> o/
[19:02] <riply> hi guys, does anyone here have experiance with Virtualmin and are willing to look at a little issue I'm having, recreating a public_html folder?
[19:02] <nashant> dr_willis: to get the live usb to work I added 'nomodeset' to the grub options. Would adding this to 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT' in /etc/default/grub do the same?
[19:03] <mithran> bekks:  i can't find any useful commands....... i don't understand what it is saying
[19:04] <rollitup> escott: is the command to bind /dev $sudo mount --bind /dev /media/dev ?
[19:05] <bekks> mithran: Then try to explain what's unclear at the explanation right before the second command in the section "Mounting" please.
[19:05] <ElixirVitae> Hi!
[19:05] <dr_willis> nashant: try it. i only need it untill i get the drivers install
[19:05] <ElixirVitae> How stable is post-release updates of Nvidia drivers?
[19:06] <escott> rollitup, if /media was where you mounted sda5
[19:07] <savr> what replaces unattended-upgrades in 12.10?
[19:08] <tofanbatam> you now kontol bro ??
[19:09] <mithran> bekks:  my filesystem is already mounted but i cant find the other partitions in my system
[19:09] <Guest4501> Harmy, need help?
[19:09] <rollitup> escott: it says mount': mount point /media/sda5/dev does not exist
[19:10] <bekks> mithran: That has nothing to do with the explanation right before the second command in the section named above.
[19:11] <bekks> mithran: So please explain what you dont understand in that section, for enabling us to actually help you.
[19:11] <mithran> bekks:  ok then what shall i do . can you please healp me?
[19:11] <escott> rollitup, i need to try and get some work done. /dev/sda5 is the device, when you mount it "mount /dev/sda5 /some/mountpoint" it attaches the filesystem inside the disk to that mountpoint. what you need to do next in the chroot is attach the existing /dev filesystem to the dev directory inside the mountpoint where your mounted /dev/sda5. so its "mount /dev/sda5 /someplace; mount --bind /dev /someplace/dev"
[19:11] <bekks> mithran: Then try to explain what's unclear at the explanation right before the second command in the section "Mounting" please.
[19:12] <fefe321> ciao
[19:12] <fefe321> chi mi aiuta
[19:12] <mithran>  there are for partitions in my system but there only shows the file system
[19:13] <Pici> !it | fefe321
[19:13] <mithran> bekks:  there are for partitions in my system but there only shows the file system
[19:14] <bekks> mithran: Ok, last try: explain what you dont understand at the section named above. Dont repeat things that have nothing to do with that please.
[19:14] <mithran> bekks: there is 350 GB of space is availiable in my system now it shows only 50 GB of the file system?
[19:15] <nashant> dr_willis: grub-update command not found
[19:15] <bekks> mithran: Ok. Very obviously you dont want to listen to people when asking things, nor you want to read and understand when people are trying to help you. That makes it impossible for me to help you. Good luck with your support issue, maybe someone else is more patient.
[19:15] <dr_willis> nashant:  perhaps because its 'update-grub'
[19:15] <nashant> yup
[19:16] <nashant> just realised that
[19:16] <dr_willis> ;)
[19:17] <savr> what replaces unattended-upgrades in 12.10?
[19:18] <Pici> savr: I see unattended-upgrades in 12.10
[19:18] <savr> hmmm
[19:18] <savr> ok... thanks
[19:18] <bekks> savr: It is available in quantal: http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/unattended-upgrades
[19:19] <benbro1> is there a tool for ubuntu that can help me create a video tutorial with text popup?
[19:19] <Pici> savr: I don't have a desktop install here, but apt shows it available as part of ubuntu-desktop (among other tasks)
[19:20] <Dark_Prince> Hello, I'm trying to set up a FTP server on my VPS with vsftpd, I can read files off it but I can't write in anyway, any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
[19:20] <mithran> bekks: i can'understand what you are asking about . are you asking about the command given by the bot
[19:21] <bekks> Dark_Prince: You didnt allow write access in your config.
[19:22] <mithran> bekks: is it about this "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"
[19:22] <Dark_Prince> What setting am I looking at here?
[19:22] <Dark_Prince> I'm looking at the conf file for  it now
[19:22] <bekks> Dark_Prince: For the setting to enable any form of the write command, in first instance.
[19:22] <Dark_Prince> write_enable=YES is already set.
[19:23] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Then whats the exact error message you get when trying to upload a file?
[19:23] <Dark_Prince> Response:	550 Delete operation failed.
[19:24] <mrguser> hello
[19:24] <mithran> anybody please help me i cannot mount my system partition voleums in my ubuntu 12.10
[19:24] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Does the user you are logged in with using ftp have the permissions to delete that file?
[19:25] <Dark_Prince> How would I check that? I think so its under its /home/ directory.
[19:25] <mithran> i only see the file system?
 homie, you can reinstall grub monitor
[19:25] <mithran> please help me :(
[19:25] <fenix709> ciao
[19:25] <sgt_hagger> Hey guys. On KDE is there anything like the integration of banshee? I am really liking KDE but I miss the banshee integration. I would like to be able to quickly search my music and play it
[19:25] <bekks> Dark_Prince: By using ls -lha
 homie, would you like a link
[19:25] <mrguser> ?
[19:25] <IdleOne> sgt_hagger: Amarok
[19:26] <fenix709> !list
[19:26] <kostkon> sgt_hagger, amarok?
[19:26] <Dark_Prince> They're all root.
[19:26] <dr_willis> 'system partition volumes' dosent make much sence mithran
[19:26] <bekks> Dark_Prince: So which file in particular do you want to delete?
[19:26] <kostkon> sgt_hagger, amarok is a beast though
[19:27] <Dark_Prince> In general I more want to be able to backup files and restore them.
[19:27] <sgt_hagger> yeah but what I want is something like Unity has. I don't need to open my music player in unity. All I do is press super + m then type a few letters from the song I want and normally it is there. get what I mean?
[19:27] <Dark_Prince> Or upload new server files.
[19:28] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Then please just answer my question.
[19:28] <mithran> dr_willis: my hard disk partition is not mounting or showing but i can see my pendrive
[19:28] <Dark_Prince> Well that would be the entire /server directory.
[19:28] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Some seconds ago it was /home - so please decide which it is :)
[19:28] <mrguser> mithran , would you like a link ?
[19:29] <dr_willis> mithran:  so try to mount it with the proper mount command and look for errors
[19:29] <mithran> mrguser:  means
[19:29] <Dark_Prince> Well I need to be able to write to any files under /home/DP/
[19:29] <Dark_Prince> Which currently only includes server_files
[19:29] <bekks> Dark_Prince: And you are logged in as "DP" using ftp ?
[19:29] <Dark_Prince> Yes.
[19:29] <mrguser> yes
[19:29] <Dark_Prince> Well.
[19:29] <Dark_Prince> I'm accessing it over ssh.
[19:30] <kostkon> sgt_hagger, maybe there is an amarok plasma widget or something
[19:30] <fizyplankton> how can i burn an iso file thru command line?
[19:30] <bekks> Dark_Prince: ssh has nothing to do with ftp so far.
[19:30] <mrguser> Dark prince, you can connect iy
[19:30] <Dark_Prince> The user doesn't have a password so I just put in a random one because it wouldn't let me have nothing.
[19:30] <kostkon> sgt_hagger, or an mpris one. that would be even better
[19:30] <Dark_Prince> That might be the problem
[19:30] <bekks> Dark_Prince: No.
[19:30] <escott> !info wodim | fizyplankton
[19:31] <bekks> Dark_Prince: As long as you remembered that password and used it for logging in using ftp, that cant be the problem.
[19:31] <jake> Hai
[19:31] <Dark_Prince> When i created the user I didn't set one.
[19:31] <Dark_Prince> There is no password.
[19:31] <mithran> dr_willis: i can see the home icon in my panel if i opened this the i can see the home, file syste, pendrive
[19:31] <sgt_hagger> Okay thanks
[19:31] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Then you cant be logged in as that user using ftp.
[19:32] <Dark_Prince> So how do I set a password for a user over ssh.
[19:32] <mithran> dr_willis: there are no other voluem
[19:32] <bekks> Dark_Prince: By using "passwd".
[19:32] <dr_willis> mithran:  so try to mount it with the proper mount command IN THE TERMINAL and look for errors
[19:32] <Mongolski> hej
[19:32] <dr_willis> mithran:  check with 'sudo blkid'
[19:33] <mithran> dr_willis:  i will chk and come back

[19:34] <Dark_Prince> err Whats the syntax for passwd?
[19:34] <nashant> dr_willis, escott: Thanks for your help. All up and running :)
[19:34] <escott> nashant, how did you get past the purple screen (haven't been watching the conversation but im curious)
[19:35] <escott> Dark_Prince, passwd [username]
[19:35] <bekks> Dark_Prince: "passwd". It will ask you for your old password, and twice for your new one. Since you dont have an old one, you have to use "passwd DP" as root to set the password for DP as root.
[19:35] <dr_willis> mithran:  and as you can see.. that lists all lnown fileststems on your system..   mount the ones you want
[19:36] <BrainPaid> homies, I want to connect webchat.freenode.net on mIRC. I want to your's help's, please :(

[19:36] <BrainPaid> My mIRC is not connect webchat.freenode.net :(
[19:37] <escott> nashant, oh ok

[19:37] <veryhappy> hi guys, need your help, do i have to make a boot partition when i want to be able to change the booting distribution in windows over programs that are able to access ext3? i want to be able to change it even under windows, my system would be a dual boot system
[19:37] <Dark_Prince> Still not working. Can't write at all despite having added a password.
[19:37] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Then log in using ftp now - using your new passwd.
[19:37] <Dark_Prince> I did.
[19:37] <BrainPaid> IdleOne, bekhs; homies, I'm using a mobile phone now.
[19:38] <Dark_Prince> Still no write access.
[19:38] <Dark_Prince> Only read.
[19:38] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Then which permissions does /home/DP has?
[19:38] <IdleOne> BrainPaid: and?

[19:38] <BrainPaid> I'm not use a web browser on my mobile phone
[19:38] <dr_willis> !ntfs-3g  | mithran
[19:38] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Again with using ls -lha

[19:38] <BrainPaid> Opera Mobile is enough?
[19:39] <dr_willis> sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdXX /media/make-a-directory-first
[19:39] <IdleOne> BrainPaid: yes.
[19:39] <Pici> BrainPaid: If you're looking for freenode help, #freenode is the best place to ask.  #ubuntu is for Ubuntu support only.
[19:39] <nashant> escott: Yeah, and remove nomodeset after installing the proper drivers (I'm still waiting to do a reboot after a full system update)
[19:39] <BrainPaid> No, mIRGGI is mobile IRC client for Symbian
[19:39] <Dark_Prince> all the files have root next to them
[19:40] <BrainPaid> I'm using E63, like s60v3
[19:40] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Pastebin the output of "ls -lha /home/" please.
[19:40] <IdleOne> BrainPaid: so point it to irc.freenode.net and #freenode for more help like Pici said

[19:45] <viju> Hi
[19:46] <viju> quite a noob  at this , glad if somebody help me with this
[19:46] <veryhappy> bekks: hi bekks, need your help, do i have to make a boot partition when i want to be able to change the booting distribution in windows over programs that are able to access ext3? i want to be able to change it even under windows, my system would be a dual boot system
[19:46] <nashant> dr_willis: would leaving the 'nomodeset' option in with the proprietary drivers installed cause it to hang while booting?
[19:46] <Dark_Prince> daftykins "chmod: cannot access `766': No such file or directory "
[19:47] <viju> my OS is 32 bit , why it didn't install as 64 bit when I have 64 bit machine?
[19:47] <dr_willis> nashant:  i never tried..  its fairly easy to remove
[19:47] <daftykins> Dark_Prince: ah, fail on my part - "chmod 760 -r *"
[19:47] <dr_willis> viju:  did you download the 64bit iso?
[19:47] <nashant> dr_willis: I know, I just forgot and am a little worried that something's not working again
[19:47] <viju> there was no 64 bit iso. is there one?
[19:48] <Dark_Prince> Same thing execpt 750
[19:48] <dr_willis> viju:  yes there is
[19:48] <Dark_Prince> 560*
[19:48] <fantasma> viju: yes. There is a dropdown menue where you can choose the 64 bit version
[19:48] <Dark_Prince> 760*
[19:48] <viju> dr_willis, okay I have one more question , how to see if my machine is 64 bit or not?
[19:49] <viju> I see fantasma
[19:49] <daftykins> Dark_Prince: nm seems i can't remember proper terminology =\
[19:49] <nashant> dr_willis: proprietary drivers installed and nomodeset seems to have disappeared from grub. It hangs on the purple screen when booting
[19:49] <fantasma> viju: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
[19:49] <fantasma> "choose your flavour"
[19:51] <nashant> dr_willis: nomodeset added again and it's working. Any disadvantages in using it?
[19:51] <bekks> Dark_Prince: You dont have permissions to delete/modify those files as "DP".
[19:51] <bekks> Dark_Prince: So you have to change the permissions on those files.
[19:51] <Dark_Prince> bekks How do I do that?
[19:51] <bekks> !permissions | Dark_Prince
[19:52] <viju> thanks fantasma
[19:55] <ahmeedsoefiyan> im new on ubuntu
[19:56] <dr_willis> se days.
[19:56] <dr_willis> nashant: i dint even need nomodeset at all these days
[19:56] <MonkeyDust> ahmeedsoefiyan  welcome then
[19:57] <ViaNocturna85> hey there, anyone know if there are any bugs regarding fan control?
[19:58] <ahmeedsoefiyan> MonkeyDust Thank's :)
[20:01] <nashant> dr_willis: well it's working so I'll leave it there. I have a new problem! It's beeping at me, then sounds like one of my discs is being accessed
[20:01] <ahmeedsoefiyan> how to use wireshark on ubuntu ?
[20:02] <TomyLobo> apt-get install wireshark i presume
[20:02] <bekks> ahmeedsoefiyan: Just the same way as on other distributions and even other OS.
[20:03] <ahmeedsoefiyan> i can't .. "there are no interfaces on which a capture can be done."
[20:04] <ahmeedsoefiyan> bekks what the problem there is
[20:04] <bekks> ahmeedsoefiyan: Because you have to have root privileges to capture packets.
[20:05] <ahmeedsoefiyan> bekks : How?
[20:07] <Blinkiz> Hi. I have a Samsung NX210 digital camera with a 64GB sd-card inside. The camera can read the card fine but when I plug it into my card reader, I get "sde: unknown partition table". So what file system is it normally on these cameras?
[20:07] <nashant> Anyone able to suggest why my system beeps at me for about 2 mins very frequently as soon as I boot up, then after that just very occasionally beeps at me and makes what I think it an HDD access sound
[20:08] <clear`> nashant: you need to write down the beeps, go to your motherboard manufacture and figure out what the error is
[20:08] <Dark_Prince> bekks Set permissions but now I get 500 OOPS: vsftpd: refusing to run with writable root inside chroot()
[20:12] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Then what did you do exactly for chaning permissions?
[20:12] <nashant> clear`: Got errors with a disk it looks like. gsmartcontrol is showing 318 errors in the log for one of them
[20:13] <Dark_Prince> added DP and root to a group called FTP
[20:13] <bekks> Dark_Prince: And...?
[20:13] <Dark_Prince> and changed the group for that directory to ftp
[20:13] <Dark_Prince> Then set read write and executable permissions to group
[20:13] <bekks> Dark_Prince: OUCH.
[20:14] <bekks> Dark_Prince: You set the permissions to _world_-writeable, not to group-writable, did you?
[20:14] <bekks> Dark_Prince: And I am asking for the specific commands you used.
[20:14] <Dark_Prince> chmod g+rwx
[20:15] <bekks> Dark_Prince: That ONE of a bunch of commands.
[20:15] <Dark_Prince> Yep.
[20:16] <Dark_Prince> chmod g+rwx /home/DP
[20:16] <bekks> Dark_Prince: Thats still one ONE of bunch of commands. Use a pastebin to show them all please.
[20:18] <Dark_Prince> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448404/
[20:19] <TomyLobo> root-owned home folders *shrug*
[20:20] <theadmin> Dark_Prince: Something's wrong, why is /home/DP owned by root?
[20:20] <Dark_Prince> No idea.
[20:20] <theadmin> And why does your system allow uppercase usernames?
[20:20] <Dark_Prince> I made the directory as root?
[20:20] <TomyLobo> is that even a user folder?
[20:20] <TomyLobo> is DP even a user?
[20:20] <Dark_Prince> That I really have no idea.
[20:20] <Dark_Prince> Yup.
[20:21] <theadmin> Dark_Prince: In the future, use "adduser" to add new users
[20:21] <Dark_Prince> I did that.
[20:21] <theadmin> It makes home directories and stuff itself
[20:21] <theadmin> Dark_Prince: Either way: sudo chown -R DP:ftp /home/DP
[20:22] <poq> Hi all. Why is self-written gtk app looks like windows 2000? Lubuntu 12.04 http://tau.rghost.ru/private/42347095/ed87dc7599a4d70c354a1b23ffaceaaa/image.png
[20:22] <TomyLobo> poq i dont speak russian... what is that window?
[20:22] <Necrosporus> Where can I download ubuntu for android?
[20:22] <Necrosporus> http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android
[20:23] <Necrosporus> There is no download link, as far as I concerned
[20:23] <theadmin> poq: I suppose you didn't set it to use themable widgets.
[20:23] <Necrosporus> TomyLobo, what window?
[20:23] <DJones> Necrosporus: You can't yet, its a concept thats being looked into
[20:23] <Pici> Necrosporus: Its still  a work in progress.
[20:23] <TomyLobo> Necrosporus are you poq?
[20:23] <TomyLobo> "Ready to talk? We're ready to work with you now, so if you have plans for Android devices that could benefit from a little added Ubuntu, let us know."
[20:24] <poq> TomyLobo: on left side is my application, right side Lubuntu's lxappearance tool with Clearlooks selected theme but my app doesn't looks like lxappearance
[20:24] <poq> TomyLobo: no, I don't know Necrosporus...
[20:24] <Necrosporus> TomyLobo, I'm not, but it doesn't mean I can't take a look
[20:24] <theadmin> poq: Again, GTK requires widgets to be themable in order for this to work.
[20:24] <wachpwnski> How can I run a python program as a service?
[20:25] <TomyLobo> what can i say? gtk sucks visually :P
[20:25] <poq> theadmin: how can I do that?
[20:25] <TomyLobo> until now i thought it wasn't that bad on linux though
[20:25] <Necrosporus> wachpwnski, run it in background?
[20:25] <theadmin> wachpwnski: Eh, echo "exec python /path/to/program" | sudo tee /etc/init/myservice.conf
[20:25] <Dark_Prince> theadmin: Ok done that, now if I understand this I need to remove root from the group ftp.
[20:25] <Dark_Prince> How do I do that?
[20:25] <Necrosporus> theadmin, it will rewrite whole file
[20:26] <wachpwnski> Necrosporus:  I want to run my program like this:   sudo service my-program start
[20:26] <theadmin> Dark_Prince: sudo gpasswd -d root ftp
[20:26] <Necrosporus> maybe you need append option for tee?
[20:26] <theadmin> Necrosporus: Right, but there normally is no sane daemon called "myservice"
[20:26] <theadmin> So... that works
[20:26] <Necrosporus> wachpwnski, maybe command above should work
[20:28] <Guest26863> certain graphical apps run terribly slow; ubuntu 10.04 hp-2133 mini, could u help?
[20:28] <Dark_Prince> Hmm still 500 OOPS: vsftpd: refusing to run with writable root inside chroot()
[20:29] <NetJunky88> Good evening!
[20:29] <emr> Hello, i have to work with ms-sql, is there any way to dump data like mysql?
[20:30] <Pici> emr: On Ubuntu?
[20:30] <wachpwnski> theadmin, Necrosporus: thanks guys, that's what I needed
[20:30] <emr> Pici yes
[20:30] <Guest26863> not sure if there is a graphical work-r-rnd
[20:31] <Pici> emr: How are you connecting?
[20:32] <emr> Pici, i dont have connection yet:)
[20:32] <NetJunky88> Guys, I'm working on Windows and I use Oracle Virtual Box, to run Ubuntu Server. I need to set static ip address, but I completely forgot how to set it up.
[20:32] <Dark_Prince> theadmin: 500 OOPS: vsftpd: refusing to run with writable root inside chroot() Any idea?
[20:32] <Guest26863> certain graphical apps run terribly slow; ubuntu 10.04 hp-2133 mini, could u help?
[20:32] <theadmin> Dark_Prince: I'd rather stay away from FTP if I were you, but eh... Not really sure what it wants
[20:34] <jbwiv> does anyone else find radeon support on 12.10 to be really slow? I know that there were problems with radeon 2xxx,3xxx, and 4xxx, but I'm on 6xxx with fglrx-updates and fglrx-amdcccle-updates and things just drag...
[20:34] <Pici> emr: You'll need to figure that out first then.  Depending on what you want to do, an ODBC connection might suffice.
[20:34] <theadmin> jbwiv: I found fglrx to be generally slow for everything except wine :/
[20:35] <jbwiv> theadmin, what was your work around? Are you using the oss drivers?
[20:35] <emr> Pici i want to dump data first, is it possible with linux terminal?
[20:35] <bekks> emr: ms-sql is not able to run on Ubuntu at all.
[20:35] <TomyLobo> NetJunky88 http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-configure-a-static-ip-address-tutorial/ first hit on google
[20:36] <emr> bekks, i know, its already remote server
[20:36] <Pici> emr: The sqsh package looks like it can connect to mssql databases, but I've never used it myself.
[20:36] <Pici> !info sqsh
[20:36] <emr> ohh Pici thank you trying and reporting too u, thnx:)
[20:37] <Guest26863> not sure if anyone read my question?
[20:37] <NetJunky88> @TomyLobo: yes, if seen this example all around internet. Problem is, that I'm not sure about what addresses should set in "/etc/network/interface"
[20:39] <Guest26863> work manly on terminal, not sure what to do about graphical issues
[20:41] <Guest26863> certain graphical apps run terribly slow; ubuntu 10.04 hp-2133 mini 1.2 GHZ, 1G RAM, could u help?
[20:41] <NetJunky88> @TomyLobo: you see, I've did it long ago. My latest Ubuntu server was 10.10 I think, so you have an idea how long ago and since this is not day-to-day operation I forgot where from VirtualBox should I take those addresses and which belongs where.
[20:42] <guntbert> Guest26863: it helps if you keep your statement in one line, so it doesn't get spread across a whole page - and make a complete sentence of it :)
[20:42] <BrainPaid> HOMIE!? JCUBER!?   JCUBER!?  ARE YOU HERE! :(
[20:42] <FloodBot1> BrainPaid: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:44] <Guest26863> I'm new at this; i'm not sure how it works; do u mean i should write a longer descrition of the problem?
[20:45] <ikonia> Guest26863: just explain the problem and what you need help with
[20:45] <ikonia> Guest26863: as much/little information as you feel needed to get help
[20:46] <Pici> Guest26863: Preferably on one line.
[20:48] <jbwiv> theadmin, did you find a way to fix it or have you switched cards?
[20:48] <theadmin> jbwiv: Well, I use the opensource drivers, they work for me

[21:04] <BrainFree> I'm newbie but I now
[21:04] <theadmin> theg: You shouldn't have added the repository, wine is in the Ubuntu's repos
[21:04] <MicW> hi

[21:04] <BrainFree> Alice you can bring tar file to terminal window.
[21:05] <BrainFree> It's began install
[21:05] <theadmin> theg: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*ubuntu-wine* && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine
[21:05] <MicW> i try to netboot ubuntu from nfs. i installed it via debotstrap in a chroot, installed a kernel and created a ramdisk
[21:05] <alice__> how to bring it? can you give me what command i need to write in terminal
[21:05] <nashant> Alright guys. I'm having a display issue. when I try and boot it hangs at the first purple screen. Every time I boot a live usb session and chroot in to the installed env, then update-grub, it works again until I reboot. And ideas?
[21:05] <bekks> BrainFree: What do you mean by "bring a tar file to terminal"?
[21:05] <guntbert> theg: and whats that debian repository doing?
[21:05] <MicW> booting via pxe works

[21:06] <MicW> seems to wait for something
[21:06] <bekks> !language | daniear
[21:06] <theadmin> BrainFree: Please do not give advice without knowing things :/ "bringing" a tar file to the terminal would only paste the path to it max, not "install" it at all
[21:06] <guntbert> daniear: stay nice please
[21:06] <daniear> an abreviation isn't bad language
[21:06] <fulcan> daniear excuse you?
[21:06] <theg> I ran that command, theadmin, but there is the same terminal output
[21:06] <guntbert> daniear: don't argue - stop that
[21:07] <islandmonkey> BTW, I have to wait >1min for anything to happen
[21:07] <BrainFree> alice, you can drag and drop the tar file to terminal window. It will be install.
[21:07] <bekks> BrainFree: Which is not true at all.
[21:07] <bekks> alice__: Dont listen to him.
[21:07] <daniear> or what guntbert
[21:07] <BrainFree> Bekks, I'm sorry I am a backtrack user I'm newbie

[21:08] <bekks> BrainFree: Most likely a tar file just contains source code which has to be compiled prior installing.
[21:09] <Tech-1> 1.2g processor with 1 gig of ram wont get you very far
[21:09] <nashant> dr_willis: still about?
[21:09] <BrainFree> bekks, can you help alice?
[21:09] <islandmonkey> Guest2686: Well with a 1.2GHz CPU Minecraft will be slow.
[21:09] <nashant> dr_willis: I'm still having a display issue. when I try and boot it hangs at the first purple screen. Every time I boot a live usb session and chroot in to the installed env, then update-grub, it works again until I reboot. And ideas?
[21:09] <Tech-1> gamers know this, why they ask is beyond me
[21:09] <theg> theadmin - any other ideas?
[21:09] <BrainFree> alice, I'm soryy :( :( bekks please help to alice ??
[21:10] <alice__> BrainFree it's ok ;) at least you tried
[21:10] <dr_willis> nashant: totally disable plymouth so you can see any error messages perhaps
[21:10] <BrainFree> alice cannot install airlive drivers
[21:10] <maujhsn> Can anyone tell me if the ubuntu forum is in spanish?
[21:10] <BrainFree> Bekks?
[21:10] <nashant> dr_willis: ho do I do that?

[21:11] <BrainFree> I did my best but we didn't success..
[21:12] <BrainFree> Bye, homie..
[21:12] <nashant> dr_willis: got it
[21:12] <guntbert> BrainFree: don't spam the channel please - be easy on the <enter> key
[21:12] <skar> someone know why it isn't ldtpeditor binary when you install ldtp package?
[21:13] <BrainFree> guntbert: I'm not spamming :(
[21:13] <Evil_Eric> hey guys i need the best app for creating a app launcher any ideas
[21:13] <MockingBird> bash
[21:13] <theadmin> MockingBird: you mean emacs :P
[21:13] <MockingBird> vim
[21:13] <Pici> !best
[21:13] <theadmin> Oh whatever, I'm not getting into an editor war
[21:14] <BrainFree> MockingBird is too fast :D
[21:14] <theadmin> Evil_Eric: You don't need an app for that, Ubuntu has built-in functionality
[21:14] <MockingBird> Do you want it on the desktop?
[21:14] <Evil_Eric> theadmin , would you happen to have a link to a how to guide then
[21:14] <MockingBird> www.google.com
[21:15] <guntbert> BrainFree: and keep to ubuntu support here - don't contibute to chatter
[21:15] <Guest26863> i'm not really a gamer - just found minecraft and gave it a try and liked it. it took me forever to get it working on my platform and once i did this happened. i read that it would run on old machines, so i naturaly thought it would work on my relatively new one.
[21:15] <theadmin> Evil_Eric: Well, it used to be right-click anywhere and "Create Launcher" but I'm not sure if that's still around
[21:15] <Evil_Eric> its not
[21:15] <dcope> ergh, just installed updates on my MBA and now ubuntu can't find any network cards
[21:15] <Pici> !google | MockingBird
[21:15] <theadmin> Evil_Eric: Here's how to write a basic .desktop file: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/
[21:15] <GeorgeTorwell> Does ubuntu screen code in the software center to make sure there is no malicious code?
[21:16] <Evil_Eric> thank you theadmin
[21:16] <theadmin> GeorgeTorwell: Yes, every app submitted to the software center is reviewed.
[21:16] <GeorgeTorwell> Cool/
[21:16] <MonkeyDust> GeorgeTorwell  but be careful with PPA's, as they are not screened
[21:16] <GeorgeTorwell> ok
[21:16] <BrainFree> How to add a foreign repository on terminal?
[21:16] <dcope> any ideas?
[21:16] <TomyLobo> even the binary only packages?
[21:17] <theadmin> GeorgeTorwell: Well... Some of the apps in the Software Center are closed source, though (Flash), then they only review the functionality
[21:17] <theadmin> TomyLobo: ^
[21:17] <GeorgeTorwell> well flash isn't likely to be a problem
[21:17] <GeorgeTorwell> but I get suspicious when installing a random app and the software center asks for my root password
[21:17] <theadmin> GeorgeTorwell: That's necessary to install any app
[21:17] <MockingBird> GeorgeTorwell:  it will always ask you for that
[21:17] <theg> Can someone help me install Wine please? Terminal output is here: http://pastebin.com/MBTafena Have tried remvoing the repository then installing, no difference in output.
[21:18] <islandmonkey> Hello people, Ubuntu isn't wanting to load today.  Help?
[21:18] <TomyLobo> it needs root rights to install the app. otherwise it cannot write to the target folders
[21:18] <MockingBird> GeorgeTorwell:  it stops malicious apps from installing in the background.
[21:18] <islandmonkey> BTW, I have to wait >1min for anything to happen
[21:18] <MockingBird> isbric:  what was the last thing you did before it bricked?
[21:18] <BrainFree> Homies, how to add a foreign repository on terminal?
[21:19] <bekks> BrainFree: We have clue on how to do that on backtrack.
[21:19] <ikonia> theg: why have you installed that ppa
[21:19] <bekks> *no clue even.
[21:19] <BrainFree> Ppa codes is not works on ubuntu 10.04 lucid
[21:19] <ikonia> theg: look at the amount of bad dependencies
[21:19] <MockingBird> BrainFree:  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:...
[21:19] <bekks> BrainFree: The do work, but you dont have Ubuntu as you stated before.
[21:19] <wizards> hey what windows manager is the least resource intensive that is good with ubuntu
[21:20] <MonkeyDust> wizards  try jwm
[21:20] <BrainFree> bekks, I using ubuntu with BackTrack, My engliish is too weak to make a professional conversation on this place..
[21:20] <theadmin> wizards: openbox, i3, awesome, xmonad...
[21:20] <ikonia> BrainFree: ubuntu and back track are two seperate OS's
[21:20] <Pici> BrainFree: We do not support backtrack in this channel. You will need to use #backtrack-linux for that
[21:20] <theg> ikonia - it said to on the website, I've tried without it and that didn't work either
[21:20] <bekks> BrainFree: You are using backtrack, not Ubuntu then.
[21:20] <ikonia> BrainFree: you don't use "ubuntu with backtrack"
[21:20] <ikonia> theg: what website ?
[21:20] <MockingBird> Pici:  I think BT5 is based on Ubuntu
[21:21] <ikonia> theg: wine is in the default ubuntu repos and works fine
[21:21] <BrainFree> I installed Ubuntu 12.10 and I installed BT5
[21:21] <ikonia> MockingBird: but it's different from ubuntu
[21:21] <Pici> MockingBird: It has its own support channel. We do not support it here.
[21:21] <BrainFree> I explain that
[21:21] <wizards> theadmin: recommend any of those in particular? vs lxde?
[21:21] <BrainFree> I'm choose a system on grub
[21:21] <theadmin> MockingBird: It's "based" on it, it's not the same thing though. The officially supported distributions are: Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Edubuntu, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Studio
[21:21] <theg> ikonia - it won't install for me from the default repos either though
[21:21] <theadmin> wizards: lxde is not a window manager...
[21:21] <theadmin> wizards: lxde uses openbox
[21:21] <MockingBird> theadmin:  I know.
[21:21] <BrainFree> In BT5, its(minimal ubuntu 10.04 based)
[21:22] <ikonia> theg: what was the problem with the default repo install ?
[21:22] <guntbert> BrainFree: stop talking about backtrack please
[21:22] <dr_willis> BT does a lot of changes to ubuntu. weve had this conversation in here befor. and the bottom line.. see BT support channels.
[21:23] <theg> ikonia - same messages as with the one from the website
[21:23] <ikonia> theg: I don't think it is the same
[21:23] <ikonia> !info wine
[21:23] <islandmonkey> Hello people, Ubuntu isn't wanting to load today.  Help?
[21:23] <islandmonkey> BTW, I have to wait >1min for anything to happen
[21:23] <guntbert> theg: did you remove/disable ALL ppas yet?
[21:23] <ikonia> theg: wine in the repos is 1.4, so the error message of broken 1.5 dependencies is unlikey to happen using the versions from the repo
[21:24] <BrainFree> guntbert: I joined the #backtrack channel now. Thanks for your helps.
[21:24] <tms_> Hey folks, for some reason when my instances renew their IP addresses (somewhere around 45 seconds for some reason) there's a period of about 10 - 15 seconds where I get no networking whatsoever using VlanManager. Anyone seen anything like that before?
[21:24] <theg> How do I disable all PPAs?
[21:24] <MockingBird> Goto to software centre
[21:25] <ikonia> he's not in #backtrack-linux so joined the wrong channel
[21:25] <MockingBird> then software sources
[21:25] <dr_willis> ikonia:  ;)
[21:25] <theg> Yeah, but how do I disable all PPAs from terminal?
[21:25] <MonkeyDust> !ppa-purge | theg
[21:25] <ikonia> theg: why are you using PPA's ?
[21:25] <MockingBird> open your sources files and commentout/delete the ppa repos
[21:26] <theg> ikonia - to install various software
[21:26] <nashant> is there a grub gui?
[21:26] <dr_willis> nashant: i think theres some unofficial grub tweaking tools. but i never needed them
[21:27] <ikonia> theg: such as ?
[21:27] <delinquentme> How can I find all files recursively within a directory which have "frac" in their name?
[21:27] <islandmonkey> Hello people, Ubuntu isn't wanting to load today.  Help?
[21:27] <islandmonkey> BTW, I have to wait >1min for anything to happen
[21:27] <guntbert> delinquentme: find . -name "*frac*"
[21:27] <wizards> theadmin: thanks sorry, would you recommend one in particular for a dual monitor setup?
[21:27] <nashant> dr_willis: it seems like something is changing grub every time I boot into the installed env. I get purple screen hang every time. Then I boot to live, chroot to installed, update-grub, and it works again
[21:28] <ikonia> delinquentme: ls -R | grep or find . -name '*frac*' -print
[21:28] <Pici> delinquentme: use -iname if you want a case-insensitive search
[21:28] <theg> ikonia -Wine, some game thing, some dvd driver thing, and an emulator
[21:28] <ikonia> Pici: even better
[21:28] <dr_willis> nashant:  you got more then 1 hd?  could be its booting the wrong one.
[21:28] <theadmin> wizards: awesome I guess, it has full multihead support
[21:28] <ikonia> theg: so wine is in the normal repos, DVD driver thing ?? ?what ? and "some game thing"
[21:28] <wizards> theadmin: thanks a lot man, i will check it out and pray for a new computer
[21:29] <ikonia> theg: why are you installing this stuff from untrusted sources if it's a.) already in the ubuntu repos b.) you don't even know what it is
[21:29] <Guest26863> anyone: i have several graphical applications and games that run terribly slow; i'm using ubuntu 10.04 on an hp-2133 mini, with a 1.2 GHZ processor and 1G RAM; it's only graphical sftwr, such as: Minecraft; that run so slow you have to wait minutes for the mouse cursor to move; i read over the internet that minecraft will run on older less powerful systems;that there is a version that'll run on a palm-held|please help
[21:29] <theg> ikonia - I googled the problems, and the solutions involved adding new repositories to be able to install the software which fixes it
[21:30] <islandmonkey> Hello people, Ubuntu isn't wanting to load today.  Help?
[21:30] <islandmonkey> BTW, I have to wait >1min for anything to happen
[21:30] <ikonia> theg: I'm sorry that makes no sense
[21:30] <theadmin> ikonia: winehq.org tells people to use the PPA on Ubuntu. Their fault there.
[21:30] <ikonia> theadmin: really ?
[21:30] <theadmin> ikonia: Yeah
[21:30] <theg> theadmin - but they told me to come here
[21:30] <ikonia> how disappointing
[21:31] <ikonia> theg: so they told you to install their PPA, it didn't work and they told you to come here ?
[21:31] <theadmin> ikonia: I mean the website, not the people
[21:31] <theadmin> lol
[21:31]  * MockingBird laughs
[21:31] <guntbert> Guest26863: summarizing what other had to say about your problem: don't expect performance with minecraft on 1.2GHz and 1GB RAM
[21:31] <nashant> dr_willis: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448567/   results from bootinfoscript
[21:32] <theg> ikonia - No, I followed their thing on the website involving their PPA, it didn't work, so I posted on the forum, an admin disapproved the post and emailed me saying to come here
[21:32] <ikonia> theg: #winehq is the official wine PPA channel
[21:32] <ikonia> theg: they should be able to help you with problems with their PPA
[21:32] <theg> Anywho disabling all PPAs hasn't fixed it.
[21:33] <ikonia> I suspect it won't if you've got PPA software already installed
[21:33] <nashant> dr_willis: and output from parted -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/1448575/
[21:33] <ikonia> disabling a PPA doesn't remove what's been done
[21:33] <theadmin> ikonia: ppa-purge does that (downgrade to official repo versions after removing the ppa)
[21:33] <Guest26863> guntber: thank you for your response
[21:33] <ikonia> theadmin: doesn't always work
[21:33] <theadmin> True enough
[21:35] <Guest26863> i guess, i should then give up on trying to run minecraft?
[21:35] <theg> Sorry, my laptop battery ran out
[21:35] <theg> Guest - try using optifine
[21:36] <dr_willis> minecraft is worth giving up. ;)
[21:36] <Guest26863> what is optifine?
[21:37] <kostkon> Guest26863, runs ok on hp mini 210 with intel gma 3150
[21:37] <theg> Optifine is a mod for minecraft which improves performance.
[21:38] <kostkon> Guest26863, and openjdk7
[21:38] <WXZ1> how do I get seperate workspaces on each monitor in a multi monitor setup?
[21:39] <ikonia> WXZ1: I don't think that's possible
[21:39] <Guest26863> thank you guys
[21:39] <theg> Also I recommend you use Sun Java
[21:39] <ikonia> WXZ1: you could run two seperate X servers
[21:39] <WXZ1> but it must be
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> theg: sun don't own java :)
[21:39] <ikonia> WXZ1: why must it be ?
[21:39] <dr_willis> WXZ1:  its not possible with Unity,  You can fullscreen an app and put it on the other monitors  and set it 'on all desktops/monitors'  if you want
[21:39] <WXZ1> because it's so useful
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> Guest26863: there is a PPA for Oracle Java, may help install it
[21:39] <theg> I know, but it jsut runs so much better than OpenJDK, esp. for Minecraft
[21:40] <theg> *just
[21:40] <ikonia> WXZ1: that doesn't mean it's possible
[21:40] <wachpwnski> How can you auto mount things that are plugged into a defined usb port?
[21:40] <WXZ1> dr_willis: I don't need to use unity
[21:40] <dr_willis> WXZ1: I think some other window managers may have the feature. but  I dont recall what ones
[21:40] <WXZ1> dr_willis: yeah, I heard something about xnomad having it
[21:40] <dr_willis> WXZ1:  perhaps Awsome
[21:40] <usr13> wachpwnski: fstab entries
[21:40] <WXZ1> dr_willis: but I can't find any details on the internet
[21:40] <wachpwnski> usr13:  can you give me an example?
[21:40] <dr_willis> WXZ1:  no idea. Try their irc channels
[21:41] <WXZ1> dr_willis: awesome and nomad hav e irc channels?
[21:41] <g0th> hi
[21:41] <dr_willis> WXZ1:  no idea. I imagine so
[21:41] <g0th> when I upgraded ubuntu tex-common become broken
[21:41] <g0th> is this a known issue?
[21:41] <ikonia> g0th: is there a bug logged
[21:41] <g0th> can I somehow remove and reinstall it?
[21:42] <ikonia> g0th: you can remove it if there are no depenency problems
[21:42] <g0th> I guess dpkg --force-... is not a good idea?
[21:42] <ikonia> no
[21:42] <g0th> too many dependencies
[21:42] <ikonia> use the package manager
[21:42] <g0th> like 100 dependencies
[21:42] <ikonia> that's what it's there fore
[21:42] <ikonia> there is a --reinstall option
[21:42] <ikonia> if you man apt-get
[21:42] <g0th> I don't want to remember all those 100 apps
[21:42] <g0th> I tried the reinstall
[21:43] <ikonia> g0th: why do you actually think it's broken ?
[21:43] <ikonia> g0th: why do you actually think it's broken ?
[21:43] <g0th> it shows a "C" (conflict) next to it
[21:43] <g0th> by broken I mean the installation
[21:44] <ikonia> g0th: do you have PPA's / 3rd party repos on the system
[21:44] <usr13> wachpwnski: Let's say you have a thumb drive with Documents and you want it to be /home/wachpwnski/Portable-Docs First mkdir ~/Portable-Docs ; Then plug the divice in and run blkid and get it's UUID ; Make the fstab entry pointing the mount point to the UUID.  From then on, it will show up in Portable-Docs  (in /home/wachpwnski)
[21:45] <g0th> Some of the problems listed above are caused by some sort of debconf
[21:45] <g0th> database corruption.
[21:45] <g0th> database corruption
[21:45] <ikonia> g0th: do you have PPA's / 3rd party repos on the system
[21:45] <g0th> yes
[21:46] <ikonia> did you remove all PPA/3rd party software before upgrading as instruced ?
[21:46] <ikonia> instructed
[21:46] <nashant> dr_willis: if I run update-grub while booted into the installed env then when I reboot it still hangs on the splash screen (I've got it set to use no splash screen!)
[21:46] <g0th> it did so automatically
[21:46] <g0th> yes
[21:46] <ikonia> no, it doesn't do it automatically
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> g0th: try:   wget https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/fixpackage; chmod +x ./fixpackage; sudo ./fixpackage
[21:46] <g0th> it told me duriong the update process that it disabled the additional repo
[21:46] <Pici> ikonia: I think the upgrade does actually.
[21:47] <ikonia> Pici: it really doesn't
[21:47] <usr13> wachpwnski: The fstab entry will look something like:
[21:47] <ikonia> it may try....but it doesn't
[21:47] <usr13>   /home/wachpwnski/Portable-Docs 534c847c-98dd-40dc-a372-d91e064ccd6c    auto  users   0 0
[21:47] <Pici> ikonia: it removes the repos, but it probably doesn't remove the packages.
[21:47] <ikonia> removing the repos does nothing
[21:47] <g0th> ofc not
[21:47] <g0th> I don't want to remove those package
[21:47] <ikonia> then your upgrade is falwed
[21:47] <dr_willis> nashant:  tried the TEXT mode booting option?
[21:47] <g0th> those are several hundred packages
[21:47] <g0th> but not tex related
[21:48] <g0th> also not dictionary related
[21:48] <g0th> hmm, I can't see any possible conflict
[21:48] <RigidWig> can anyone tell me why having "export DISPLAY=:0.0" in an ~/.ssh/rc doesn't seem to stick in the ssh session. But entering it manually after authentication does?
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> RigidWig: put it in ~/.bashrc
[21:48] <usr13> wachpwnski:  /home/wachpwnski/Portable-Docs 534c847c-98dd-40dc-a372-d91e064ccd6c    auto  auto,users   0 0

[21:50] <ActionParsnip> usr13: don't you need the device to mount?
[21:50] <usr13> Oh I got it backwards
[21:50] <g0th> hmm
[21:50] <g0th> ActionParsnip: that script looks a bit scary
[21:50] <RigidWig> ActionParsnip, is there somewhere specific I need to put it, or maybe add some parameters so that it executes following an SSH session from a user?

[21:53] <nashant> dr_willis: you were right. It seems to be trying to boot from sdd, when it should be sda. My motherboard is efi, and could be putting the gpt partition table drive above sda. How do I stop that??
[21:53] <rosevp> I can get to https://mysite.mydomain.com
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> g0th: all it does is clear the package manager knowledge of any packages then redownloads fresh
[21:53] <usr13> wachpwnski: But I don't really do it like that, I just let the portable devices mount where they may.   Even if I do backups, I just bring up another file-manager window and drag stuff from one to the other.
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> g0th: I just scripted it because its easier to run 1 command than many
[21:54] <rosevp> but cant get to pages and sub-folders https://mysite.mydomain.com/
[21:54] <syphon14> none of browsers will play youtube video and i have flash
[21:54] <g0th> ActionParsnip: knowledge of installed packages?
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> g0th: available packages
[21:54] <g0th> what about manually installed packages? aren't those informations lost then?
[21:54] <g0th> hmm, isn't that the same as apt-get update?
[21:55] <g0th> essentially?
[21:55] <dr_willis> nashant:  no idea. :) i got no EFI systems here.
[21:55] <maujhsn> dr_willis How are you? Hey about that issue about installing Windows on a new harddrive---Well in turned out to be a hardware issue! :)
[21:55] <ActionParsnip> g0th: no, its a lot different
[21:55] <g0th> the _installation and configuration_ of a package was a problem somehow
[21:55] <bekks> rosevp: So how did you install flash then?
[21:55] <g0th> not what was available and what not
[21:55] <g0th> hmm, I'll read it anyway
[21:55] <rosevp> bekks having ssl issue
[21:55] <dr_willis> maujhsn:  :()  gotta hate that.
[21:55] <g0th> maybe it helps
[21:55] <rosevp> setting up virtual host
[21:55] <g0th> my idea was to force remove the broken packages and then to reinstall them
[21:56] <crazyharry> how can I remove empty spaces or  (char ' ') from a file using sed ?
[21:56] <bekks> rosevp: Sorry, wrong tab completion :)
[21:56] <nashant> dr_willis: well thanks for trying
[21:56] <rosevp> no worries
[21:56] <crazyharry> like using sed -i 's/./,/g' *txt
[21:56] <nashant> ActionParsnip: know anything about EFI systems?
[21:56] <bekks> syphon14: So how did you install flash?
[21:56] <usr13> syphon14: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[21:56] <bekks> synAnd Ubuntu do you use?
[21:56] <ActionParsnip> nashant: nothing at all
[21:56] <rosevp> is this the right place to get help on ssl virtual host ubuntu?
[21:56] <nashant> damn it
[21:56] <bekks> usr13: Not necessary. Flash is provided in the repos.
[21:57] <usr13> bekks: I know.
[21:57] <maujhsn> dr_willis Can anyone tell me if the ubuntu forum is in spanish?
[21:57] <bekks> !flash | syphon14
[21:57] <syphon14> i downloaded it from the add and remove part of ubuntu (download manager)
[21:57] <mickster04> crazyharry:does sed -i 's/ //g' not work?
[21:57] <theadmin> crazyharry: sed -ri 's/\s//g' filename
[21:57] <Guest94170> alo
[21:57] <nashant> dr_willis: reckon that putting grub on every single disk might help?
[21:58] <ActionParsnip> syphon14: can you give a pastebin of the output of:   lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'             Thanks
[21:58] <usr13> bekks: He prolly has a flashplayer other than Adobe and the vids he's trying to play may only work with Adobe flash player, so why not cut to the chase?
[21:58] <crazyharry> theadmin, you da man :-) thanks dude!
[21:59] <delarge> hi there, i have a dell xps m1210 a little bit old with a processor of 1.83 Ghz and a ram of 992.3 MB and all these years i've used ubuntu 10.10 and always has worked very good but now i'm working with wireless networks and a lot of tools are deprecated and i want to upgrade my ubuntu. What version do you recommend me to download?
[22:00] <ikonia> delarge: current supported versions
[22:00] <delarge> the latest works fine in old machines?
[22:00] <ikonia> delarge: ubuntu 10.04 is still supported also
[22:00] <theadmin> delarge: 12.04 if you want large stability and long support. 12.10 if you're looking for new features.
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> delarge: Lubuntu is pretty light
[22:00] <ikonia> delarge: that's not an "old" machine
[22:00] <bekks> usr13: How do you know which flash implementation he is using?
[22:00] <xangua> delarge: it depends of you definition of old
[22:00] <ikonia> it will be fine with any modern distro
[22:00] <usr13> bekks: I don't.
[22:00] <usr13> bekks: And that is the point.
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> my command will fill you in though :)
[22:03] <delarge> thanks for the reply, then i'll try a Ubuntu 12.*
[22:04] <delarge> i hope that works fine in my laptop
[22:04] <usr13> delarge: How old is it?
[22:04] <tozen> delarge: would be fine to see your laptops configuration info
[22:06] <delarge> it's a Dell XPS M1210, i bought it at 2007. Looking in System > Administration > Monitor shows a processor inter core 2 T5600 @ 1.83 Ghz
[22:06] <delarge> and a memory of 992.3 MiB
[22:06] <delarge> *intel
[22:06] <tozen> delarge: the best choice is Xubuntu
[22:06] <rosevp> any suggestion of why I can get to https://client.site.com/wp-admin and https://client.site.com/index.php but no other pages
[22:07] <rosevp> the remaining pages get 404
[22:07] <rosevp> http works fine but not https
[22:07] <delarge> do you think that the 12.04 it's going to run slowly?
[22:07] <tozen> rosevp:pastebin hosts file, please
[22:08] <usr13> delarge: Oh a Dell XPS M1210 should work fine with 12.04 or .10
[22:08] <tozen> delarge: yes i do
[22:08] <rosevp> tozen so don't understand
[22:08] <rosevp> sorrry
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> tozen: Lubuntu is lighter still
[22:08] <nashant> dr_willis: ok, I have some info. when loading the partitions, the only one that actually has an alphanumeric identifier is sdd1. the rest are just 00000000-0000-etc
[22:08] <usr13> delarge: How much RAM?
[22:09] <usr13> delarge: Oh 1G, yea, that'll be ok
[22:09] <kelvinella> hi i have WD My Passport 1TB drive, it works in ubuntu but not in xubuntu anyone helps?
[22:09] <kelvinella> it said input/output error in xubuntu
[22:10] <usr13> kelvinella: May need to run fsck on your Linux partition(s), (from LiveCD)
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: if you manually mount it, is it ok?
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: when you unplug it, do you use the safe remove feature in the OS?
[22:10] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, it automounts in xubuntu but then says input/output error
[22:10] <usr13> kelvinella: Oh, it's a portable drive?
[22:10] <kelvinella> it is portable
[22:11] <tozen> rosevp: type in terminal cat /etc/hosts and pastebin it, please
[22:11] <usr13> kelvinella: Do you umount before unplugging each time?
[22:11] <kelvinella> i saferemove it in ubuntu
[22:11] <usr13> kelvinella: ... as well you should in any OS...
[22:11] <kelvinella> my ubuntu is 10.10
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: maverick is EOL
[22:12] <kelvinella> and both my laptop running xubuntu 12.04
[22:12] <rosevp> tozen what goes in hosts?
[22:12] <delarge> maverick rules
[22:12] <delarge> jajaajaj
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> delarge: tis dead
[22:12] <delarge> i know :(
[22:12] <kelvinella> works in ubuntu 10.10 but not in xubuntu 12.04
[22:12] <Shinobi> Is there a way to run a script based on file system events?
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: can you manually mount it in Xubuntu?
[22:12] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, wait
[22:13] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, how exactly do i manual mount?
[22:14] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, i just plug it in xubuntu laptop it is automount but just cant read
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: unmount it then manually mount
[22:14] <usr13> kelvinella: What filesystem is on it?
[22:15] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, even gparted in xubuntu can see the drive
[22:15] <kelvinella> just input/output error
[22:15] <usr13> kelvinella: What filesystem?
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: something like:  sudo mkdir /media/hdd; sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/hdd -o user,rw,uid=1000        assuming it is /dev/sdb1 as the partition to mount
[22:17] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, i can access the drive without mount
[22:17] <kelvinella> i mean i cant access it in the file manager but i can access it in terminal
[22:18] <kelvinella> i can ls into it and evince file.pdf
[22:18] <blackshirt> hello, good morning
[22:18] <kelvinella> it works but not in the gui file manager
[22:18] <rosevp> tozen just sent u contents
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: ah, i see. Have you tried another file manager? or making another Ubuntu user and testing there?
[22:19] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, when I ls -l i found a strange folder with d????????? ? ? ? ? Locale
[22:20] <kelvinella> could that be the problem?
[22:20] <dr_willis> kelvinella:  big problem.
[22:20] <bekks> kelvinella: That looks like a corrupted filesystem.
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: you could unmount the partition and label it. May help
[22:20] <dr_willis> kelvinella:  backup stuff if you can.. and time to fsck the filesystem
[22:20] <kelvinella> i just bought this drive 2 days ago
[22:20] <kelvinella> maybe i should reformat it?
[22:21] <bekks> kelvinella: Just backup your data and run a fsck
[22:21] <bekks> kelvinella: after unmounting it.
[22:21] <kelvinella> or delete the Locale folder in ubuntu then plug in the xubuntu?
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: try the label. It may help
[22:21] <bekks> kelvinella: Dont reformat or delete things unless you know it will help.
[22:21] <kelvinella> what label?
[22:21] <kelvinella> and how?
[22:22] <ikonia> why would you reformat something ?
[22:22] <ikonia> what benifit do you hope to get ?
[22:22] <kelvinella> ikonia, because maybe the hidden folder that comes with the drive
[22:22] <ikonia> what about them ?
[22:23] <kelvinella> whats the command for umount manually
[22:23] <ikonia> umount
[22:24] <kelvinella> ikonia, option?
[22:24] <ikonia> what ?
[22:24] <rosevp> help with setting up ssl for vhost
[22:24] <ikonia> rosevp: what's the problem ?
[22:25] <rosevp> i set up a vhost and now trying to set up the vhost for the ssl (https)
[22:25] <ikonia> rosevp: ok, so what are you stuck with ?
[22:25] <rosevp> can get to the main htps://subdomain.maindomain.com
[22:25] <ikonia> rosevp: (don't forget you need to not use name based virtual hosts)
[22:25] <rosevp> but get 404 for remaining of site
[22:26] <fulcan> can someone please post a default samba4 or a working samba4 config?
[22:26] <rosevp> yeah I did
[22:26] <syphon14> my browsers just go black when i hit play on youtube video help
[22:27] <ikonia> fulcan: "working" samba4 config depends on your personal setup
[22:27] <ikonia> rosevp: so what do you actually need help with
[22:27] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, after i use terminal to access the drive in xubuntu and then i unmount it and plug it back to ubuntu desktop, it wont auto mount what to do?
[22:27] <fulcan> ikonia can get me through an installation
[22:27] <ikonia> fulcan: sorry what ?
[22:27] <g0th> finally!
[22:27] <g0th> I found it :)
[22:27] <rosevp> trying to figure out why I can get to main index when accessing https but not to the rest of the site
[22:27] <g0th> sudo /usr/share/debconf/fix_db.pl
[22:28] <g0th> that fixed all my issues
[22:28] <FloodBot1> g0th: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:28] <ikonia> rosevp: what does the log for your IP based virtual host say for the SSL site
[22:28] <rosevp> I can't get to https://subdomain.main.com/index.php but not https://subdomain.main.com/order/index.php
[22:28] <fulcan> ikonia ERROR: Invalid smb.conf
[22:29] <ikonia> fulcan: ok, so run testparm on it and find out what's invlaid
[22:29] <ikonia> invalid
[22:29] <fulcan> ikonia and pkg-add blows because it will no give me a fresh one.
[22:29] <syphon14> my browsers just go black when i hit play on youtube or any other video
[22:29] <ikonia> pkg-add ? what is pkg-add ?
[22:29] <fulcan> apt-get
[22:29] <syphon14> they just wont play video
[22:29] <rosevp> I checked /var/log/apache2/error.log and get 404 for all pages excpet index
[22:29] <usr13> kelvinella: xubuntu should automount it for you.
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: it should, if the label is whack then it won't mount as the label is used as the mount point
[22:30] <usr13> kelvinella: .... by default ...
[22:30] <ikonia> rosevp: you should get more info than that from the error log, that sounds like the access log
[22:30] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, now it mounts i tap the device
[22:30] <kelvinella> i can see everything in ubuntu
[22:31] <fulcan> how do I get past this?  http://pastie.org/5549592
[22:32] <rosevp> yeah just noticed "[warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `UAT-UBU-02' does NOT match server name!?"
[22:32] <rosevp> could that b it?
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> fulcan: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[22:33] <ikonia> it means the server's certificate does not match the hostname of the URL
[22:33] <ikonia> fulcan: what is pkg-add ?
[22:33] <ikonia> pkgadd is a solaris command, but I have no idea what pkg-add is
[22:33] <kelvinella> http://pastebin.com/kaimafgw
[22:33] <fulcan> precise
[22:33] <kelvinella> here is the ls -l gives me
[22:33] <fulcan> ikonia apt-get  my brain keeps going back to bsd
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: unmount the partition and use gparted to label it
[22:34] <usr13> kelvinella: What filesystem is on it?
[22:34] <kelvinella> usr13, its a WD so ntfs
[22:34] <kelvinella> i bought 2 days ago WD My PAssport 1TB
[22:34] <kelvinella> default file system ntfs
[22:35] <usr13> kelvinella: Do as ActionParsnip suggests
[22:35] <rosevp> ikonia: could that be why I'm getting 404?
[22:35] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, everything works in ubuntu
[22:35] <kelvinella> just not the xubuntu file manager
[22:35] <ikonia> rosevp: if the ssl is invalid and can't do the handshake....possible, I guess
[22:35] <usr13> kelvinella: It reads the Local/  directory?
[22:36] <ikonia> although I'd just expect an invalid certficiate warning
[22:36] <rosevp> me to
[22:36] <kelvinella> yes usr13
[22:36] <rosevp> strange I can get to index
[22:36] <ikonia> rosevp: is the index just cache ?
[22:36] <kelvinella> i think maybe that Locale is giving problem to the gui file manager in xubuntu if i can delete that Locale folder
[22:37] <ikonia> rosevp: have you setup the subdirectory "directory" parameters to allow subdirectories ?
[22:37] <kelvinella> usr13, so i am thinking to format it
[22:37] <ikonia> why ?
[22:37] <blackout_> does someone know why my boot starts 3 sec delayed? http://en.zimagez.com/full/f67c05cd40f17683329a618ec91320d4270a5e0719426a5f5d1877308f3718a6156d954399bcdc59.php
[22:37] <rosevp> this is WP site and can also get to admin (wp-admin)
[22:37] <usr13> kelvinella: Usually, when you see  "Input/output error"  there are filesystem errors.
[22:37] <rosevp> but nothing else
[22:37] <ikonia> why format it ??? I don't undertand
[22:37] <kelvinella> usr13, will reformat it fix it?
[22:37] <ikonia> rosevp: can you give me the url ?
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: again, label the partition. It is used in naming the mout point. If it is garbled, you will get issues
[22:37] <fulcan> how do I get past this? it wont even let me update. http://pastie.org/5549617
[22:37] <usr13> ikonia: WHy not?  Why not format as fat32?
[22:38] <ikonia> usr13: why though ? what benifit ?
[22:38] <usr13> ikonia: Might fix it so that he can read it ok.
[22:38] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, cant umount
[22:38] <carlosandre> carlosandre> hi I'd like to create upstart and start it without sudo
 when I start my upstart job, without sudo a see an error message

 Can anyone help me?
[22:38] <FloodBot1> carlosandre: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> usr13: 4Gb file limit in Fat32 is a bit of a bummer
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: sure you can
[22:39] <ikonia> carlosandre: please dont spam
[22:39] <carlosandre> sorry
[22:39] <usr13> ActionParsnip: O
[22:39] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, i dont know why it just wont
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: cd $HOME; sudo umount /media/My\ Passport
[22:39] <carlosandre> can anyone help me with upstart?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: if your PWD is in the mount point, it won't unmount
[22:40] <usr13> ActionParsnip: It's already mounted,  See:  http://pastebin.com/kaimafgw
[22:40] <carlosandre> i'd like to start a job without sudo
[22:40] <kelvinella> i forgot the sudo
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> usr13: yes, it needs unmounting to label
[22:40] <ikonia> fulcan: make the smb.conf valid
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: now use gparted to label it
[22:40] <ikonia> fulcan: fix the problem
[22:41] <ikonia> or remove samba4
[22:41] <ikonia> !info samba4
[22:41] <usr13> ActionParsnip: Oh yea.  Ok.  Yea kelvinellal, do as ActionParsnip suggests and use gparted to re-lable it.
[22:41] <usr13> ActionParsnip: I just assumed he already tried that.
[22:41] <kelvinella> it says editing partitions has the potential to cause loss of data?  should i apply anyway?
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> !label | kelvinella
[22:41] <usr13> kelvinella: backup your data and go on and do it.
[22:42] <carlosandre> ikonia
[22:42] <kelvinella> let me backup first
[22:42] <fulcan> does anyone know how to get past a failed samba installation?  it wont even let me update. http://pastie.org/5549637
[22:42] <rosevp> ikonia: just gave it to u
[22:43] <ikonia> fulcan: fix the problem
[22:43] <ikonia> !info samba4
[22:43] <ikonia> or remove samba4
[22:43] <ikonia> fulcan: just repeating it and not listening to the advice won't help
[22:43] <ikonia> rosevp: just saw it, one moment
[22:43] <rosevp> thanks bud...this driving me crazy :-(
[22:44] <ikonia> rosevp: your certificate is invalid, you know that correct ?
[22:44] <kelvinella> 200 GB needs 2 hrs backup, are you guys staying here for a while?
[22:44] <fulcan> ikonia I am trying to install samba
[22:44] <carlosandre> i need to create and an upstart job without sudo... how to achieve it?
[22:44] <fulcan> ikonia fixing it "is" my issue
[22:45] <ikonia> fulcan: sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:45] <ikonia> fulcan: that is NOT the command to install samba
[22:45] <fulcan> ikonia it craps on smb.conf
[22:45] <ikonia> fulcan: you've said that 5 times now, I can see that
[22:45] <ikonia> fulcan: however you are NOT trying to install samba
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: why is it not backed up anyway?
[22:45] <fulcan> ikonia yes I am
[22:46] <ikonia> fulcan: you are doing apt-get upgrade, that is not the command to install samba
[22:46] <ikonia> fulcan: apt-get upgrade is NOT the command to install samba
[22:46] <fulcan> ERROR: Invalid smb.conf
[22:46] <usr13> carlosandre: You should tell us your end goal.
[22:46] <ikonia> fulcan: if you say the same thing again, I will mute you
[22:46] <kelvinella> ActionParsnip, i am backing up now 200GB so need 1hr40min
[22:46] <ikonia> fulcan: I know the problem you have said it 5 times, you are not listening to what has been told
[22:46] <rosevp> ikonia: interesting that can get to https://domain.com/index and all files for that page can be retrived (css, js, etc.)
[22:46] <ikonia> rosevp: that's a different canonical name
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: good to run a full backup :)
[22:46] <kelvinella> it is full
[22:47] <ikonia> rosevp: www.domain.com domain.com are two different things in SSL world
[22:47] <kelvinella> i just copy three folders
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> kelvinella: no, as in, not a differential
[22:47] <kelvinella> what do u mean?
[22:47] <fulcan> ikonia either apt-get upgrade or install craps in the exact same place.
[22:47] <fulcan> http://pastie.org/5549653
[22:47] <rosevp> good poing...let me check
[22:47] <rosevp> point
[22:48] <usr13> carlosandre: A new system job will need to be placed in /etc/init/  so not sure how you would do it without sudo.  (So why do you need to do it without sudo?)
[22:48] <ikonia> fulcan: what hav eyou just shown me the SAME command again in a pastebin
[22:48] <ikonia> fulcan: apt-get upgrade is NOT the command to install samba

[22:48] <[_-S1L3NC3-_]> stop what
[22:49] <usr13> carlosandre: Well, I take that back, there is also  $HOME/.init/
[22:49] <ikonia> [_-S1L3NC3-_]: the silly /me commands
[22:49] <carlosandre> usr13: when I try to monitor a clockwork proccess with monit, I can't start it...
[22:49] <[_-S1L3NC3-_]> lol
[22:49] <carlosandre> when i execute the command service clockwork start... i receive a error message
[22:50] <rosevp> ikonia: I can access https://subdomain.main.com/index but not https://subdomain.main.com/shop/index
[22:50] <usr13> carlosandre: http://mmonit.com/monit/documentation/monit.html
[22:51] <ikonia> rosevp: pm me what canonical name you built the SSL for
[22:51] <usr13> carlosandre: sudo service clockwork start  ?
[22:51] <carlosandre> usr13: I pass all two days trying
[22:51] <carlosandre> usr13: sudo service clockwork start works fine
[22:51] <fulcan> ikonia samba install -> http://pastie.org/5549666  update -> http://pastie.org/5549665  same crap, same place
[22:52] <carlosandre> usr13: service clockwork start shows a error
[22:52] <usr13> carlosandre: Ok... so what is next?
[22:52] <ikonia> fulcan: samba is already installed ! that is why it's erroring
[22:52] <nashant> I decided to wipe all 6TB of my media and start again. What would a recommended partition scheme be?
[22:52] <BlessJah> how do i change default action after power button press?
[22:52] <ikonia> fulcan: fix the smb.conf as I've told you 5 times now
[22:52] <BlessJah> suspend, whuch is default, doesnt work on my laptop, so i want to change it to halt
[22:52] <ikonia> fulcan: you already have samba 4 installed
[22:53] <ikonia> fulcan: now you are trying to install samba
[22:53] <ikonia> you can't do that
[22:53] <carlosandre> usr13: so... I can start/stop manually but when I put it on monit... doesn't start
[22:53] <ikonia> fulcan: options 1.) fix smb.conf 2.) remove samba4 before trying to install samba 3 OR upgrade
[22:53] <fulcan> ikonia that a source that won't unistall. crap
[22:53] <carlosandre> usr13: I tried to "start program" as uid root
[22:54] <carlosandre> usr13: but don't work
[22:54] <ikonia> why won't it uninstall
[22:54]  * BlessJah feels a little bit ignored
[22:54] <ikonia> thanks to that /me command you are now ignored
[22:54] <usr13> carlosandre: I don't know.  I've never used monit  Someone else should help you.
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> BlessJah: power options in system settings
[22:54] <rosevp> ikonia just sent u conf of both 80 and 443
[22:55] <ikonia> rosevp: ok so the servername in that certificate is the ONLY url you should be referencing, nothing else
[22:55] <carlosandre> usr13: thanks brother
[22:55] <DarkLobster> Any sudoers wiz awake? How to write if I want a users group to be able to edit the superuser crontab? %www-data ALL=(ALL)NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/crontab -e doesn't seem to work, still asks for password and the reply is "Sorry, user is not allowed to execute '/usr/bin/crontab -e' as root"
[22:55] <ikonia> rosevp: you also have "servername" commented out
[22:55] <rosevp> I used ubuntu default
[22:56] <ikonia> rosevp: you are using namebased hosts, I told you not to
[22:56] <fulcan> ikonia uninstalling a source is just make uninstall?
[22:56] <rosevp> in the ssl one?
[22:56] <BlessJah> ActionParsnip: inactivity, low battery or closed lid?
[22:56] <ikonia> fulcan: you installed from source......really
[22:56] <BlessJah> i cant see "Power button is pressed" option
[22:56] <rosevp> for the ssl its commented ut
[22:57] <rosevp> out
[22:57] <ikonia> fulcan: samba4 --configure suggests you did NOT install it from source
[22:57] <ikonia> rosevp: ok - so you've not actually using name based hosts then, that's good
[22:57] <fulcan> HOW DO I DELETE A SOURCE INSTALL OF SAMBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[22:57] <rosevp> so u think its the cert?
[22:57] <fulcan> killed
[22:57] <fulcan> dead
[22:58] <carlosandre> can anyone help me with monit configuration?
[22:58] <ikonia> rosevp: ok, so again, pm me the canoncal name of the site you created the SSL certificate with
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> BlessJah: seems to be in gnome-tweak-tool
[22:58] <BlessJah> let me try it
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> BlessJah: http://askubuntu.com/questions/66723/how-do-i-modify-the-power-options
[22:59] <BoJangl`> I'd hate to say this guys but it made me laugh: http://justlold.com/priceless
[23:00] <rosevp> ikonia: just pm'd u what I'm using
[23:00] <BlessJah> ActionParsnip: thanks a lot!
[23:00] <ikonia> rosevp: ahhhh you didn't create the SSL
[23:00] <ikonia> rosevp: thats the issue
[23:00] <ikonia> rosevp: you need to create an SSL certificate for your site
[23:00] <ikonia> that's why it's not matching up
[23:00] <rosevp> but why does the main index and all the js, css work with https: ?
[23:01] <rosevp> I got mismatch browser msg but just continued
[23:01] <rosevp> any other page get 404
[23:02] <ikonia> rosevp: it's not really working if you look at it
[23:02] <ikonia> it's a certificate missmatch
[23:04] <Networked> hey guys, I have a question about installing/removing software
[23:05] <cfedde> from apt it's pretty easy!
[23:05] <ActionParsnip> Networked: wassup
[23:06] <rosevp> ikonia: right...but wonder why I can get to index
[23:07] <Networked> ActionParsnip: Basically, I have emacs and emacs23 installed.  I want to completely remove emacs23, so I can completely install emacs24.  When I mark emacs23 for complete removal, synaptic says I have to install emacs23-el ... I don't want to install anything emacs23 if I'm friggin trying to get rid of it
[23:07] <ActionParsnip> Networked: try:   sudo apt-get --purge remove emacs*
[23:07] <ikonia> rosevp: because you're accepting the invalid certficate
[23:08] <ikonia> rosevp: but the I suspect the application calls other things, which because it's not interactive can't accept the invalid certivciate so fails
[23:08] <Networked> ActionParsnip: do you have to be in the actual folder to purge properly?
[23:09] <elitenovell> is there any good linux command books
[23:09] <eternal> ls
[23:09] <Networked> ActionParsnip: because I'm running it right now, and it looks like it's only looking in my home folder. It's trying to remove a tar file I have called "emacs-stuff" as a package, which obviously doesn't work
[23:10] <nashant> Anyone know why LVM manager decides to put sdd1 before sdc1??
[23:11] <ikonia> does it matter ?
[23:11] <ikonia> and in what respect "puts it before"
[23:11] <cfedde> you are doing concatination?
[23:17] <g0th> hmm
[23:17] <g0th> I opened alsamixer and muted some stuff, which indeed muted my audio, so I unmuted it again but I couldn't hear anything anymore. Wth is going on?
[23:18] <g0th> Everything in alsamixer is unmuted it seems, I don't understand why this would disable audio
[23:18] <nashant> ikonia: It puts them in the order sda4, sdb1, **sdd1**, sdc1. And I suppose it doesn't REALLY matter, it's just causing my OCD serious pain
[23:18] <ikonia> nashant: what command are you doing to see this, a vgdisplay ?
[23:20] <seba_> hello.  Have a problem. I have a laptop and ubuntu 12.04. Compiz use about 20% cpu in idle ( i have intel i3-380m ) Do you know what i can do to limited this ? Sorry for english ;/
[23:20] <nashant> ikonia: I was using the gui. How do I see it with the terminal?
[23:21] <rosevp> ikonia: that makes sense
[23:21] <rosevp> isn't there a simple way to create a cert for a server; this is just a dev box
[23:23] <ikonia> rosevp: yeah, self signed certificate and make your machine / browser aware of the self signed CA
[23:23] <g0th> I hate the existing sound systems
[23:24] <g0th> you can ruin an evening by just clicking mute + unmute on alsamixer :(
[23:24] <ikonia> g0th: thanks for that pointless comment
[23:24] <g0th> helps me channel my frustration
[23:24] <ikonia> this channel is not here for that
[23:24] <g0th> which channel? :)
[23:24] <g0th> kk
[23:25] <ikonia> this one
[23:26] <rosevp> ikonia: yep that's it....thanks bud!
[23:26] <ikonia> rosevp: nice job
[23:26] <Ogredude> hey I'm getting an http 500 error on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys
[23:39] <usr13> Ogredude: Hey, I'm not.
[23:40] <yazdmich> is it normal for squashfs to take a while to unpack in unetbootin?
[23:42] <g0th> re
[23:42] <g0th>  I use the latest ubuntu with pulseaudio/alsa, I openend alsamixer, muted some stuff, then unmute the exactly same thing, but now I don't hear anything anymore. Any ideas why????
[23:42] <g0th> I checked: in alsamixer I pressed F5 and unmuted everything and set everything to maximum
[23:43] <usr13> g0th: You must have missed one.  Check again.
[23:43] <g0th> I did
[23:43] <g0th> I also entered amixer
[23:43] <g0th> everything for playback is at 100% or over 80%
[23:43] <g0th> in pavucontrol it shows under Application that some sound is playing
[23:43] <usr13> g0th: play /usr/share/alsa/*  #for test
[23:44] <g0th> under "playback" I meant
[23:44] <usr13> g0th: Find out what it is and stop it
[23:44] <g0th> under "output" it shows something at "audio adapter digital stereo"
[23:44] <g0th> play WARN alsa: can't encode 0-bit Unknown or not applicable
[23:45] <g0th> I don't know what you mean by "play ..."
[23:45] <usr13> lsof |grep snd
[23:46] <usr13>  play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[23:46] <g0th> the lsof shows a huge list
[23:46] <usr13> g0th: sudo apt-get install sox
[23:46] <g0th> I mean the grep stuff is still huge
[23:46] <usr13> (sox is  the Swiss Army knife of audio manipulation)
[23:47] <g0th> sox is already installed
[23:47] <usr13>  play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[23:47] <g0th> I don't hear anything
[23:47] <usr13> to test....
[23:47] <usr13> So, is it playing the files?
[23:47] <g0th> no
[23:47] <g0th> I hear nothing
[23:47] <usr13> What do you see?
[23:48] <g0th> it tried to play it looks all fine
[23:48] <g0th> but I hear nothing
[23:48] <usr13> g0th: (it should be obvious...) Is it playing the files or not?
[23:48] <g0th> yes it is
[23:48] <g0th> as mentioned I already have a movie running
[23:48] <usr13> g0th: Check your speakers
[23:48] <g0th> and it shows under pavucontrol
[23:48] <g0th> that it is playing
[23:48] <g0th> I didn't touch the speakers
[23:49] <usr13> so when did it quit?
[23:49] <g0th> all I did was mute something in alsamixer
[23:49] <g0th> then unmute it
[23:49] <g0th> but it remained muted
[23:49] <usr13> turn off the player
[23:49] <g0th> I already rebooted
[23:49] <g0th> still no change :(
[23:50] <dcope> is there a driver for multitouch trackpads?
[23:50] <Moon_Doggy> ello ello
[23:50] <usr13> "as mentioned I already have a movie running"  >>>???????
[23:50] <g0th> yes, after the reboot
[23:51] <usr13> g0th: You have a movie playing now?
[23:51] <g0th> hmm, you were right
[23:51] <g0th> alsa requires no running app, I forgot
[23:51] <g0th> now play works
[23:51] <g0th> but the movie player doesn't
[23:51] <usr13> g0th: Stop it. Trun off the video player.
[23:51] <g0th> got it, I forgot, sorry
[23:52] <usr13> g0th: What movie player are you using?
[23:52] <g0th> pulse supports many players but not alsa
[23:52] <g0th> mplayer
[23:52] <usr13> 9 will decrease volume, 0 will increase it.
[23:52] <g0th> or vlc
[23:52] <chintanparikh> Hey people. Ubuntu 12.10 is giving me hell. I've finally got it working (kinda) but I just installed Gnome Shell and my screen resolution is messed up
[23:52] <g0th> or flashplayer
[23:52] <g0th> nothing works
[23:52] <g0th> I know usr13, I was a developer there
[23:53] <usr13> g0th: m  will toggle mute / unmute
[23:53] <chintanparikh> I'm using nomodeset, and I have an AMD Radeon HD 6540G2 graphics card. Last time I tried to install fglrx, it messed up everything and it kept telling me it was booting in low graphics mode (I ended up reinstalling Ubuntu to fix it).  Now, when I was using Unity the screen resolution was fine, but I've just installed Gnome Shell and the screen resolution is 1024x768 (it should be 1366x768). How would I fix this?
[23:53] <g0th> somehow the pulse is messed up
[23:53] <g0th> from using alsamixer
[23:53] <g0th> :(
[23:53] <usr13> g0th: Uninstall it.  sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio
[23:53] <g0th> I need it
[23:53] <||_The_Last_||> \j #brasil
[23:53] <g0th> several things don't work without it
[23:54] <g0th> e.g. flashplayer has problems
[23:54] <Moon_Doggy> trying to setup courier-imap, when i try to login with thunder bird i get "Configuration could not be verified - is the username or password wrong?", when i try to telnet and login i get "1 NO Login failed."
[23:54] <usr13> g0th: Ok.  I'm out of solutions.
[23:54] <g0th> how do I reconfigure pulseaudio?
[23:54] <g0th> pavucontrol?
[23:54] <g0th> or is there anything else?
[23:54] <usr13> Yea we know that flashplayer has problems.  Tell us something we don't know....  :)
[23:54] <usr13> g0th: You could try dpkg
[23:55] <chintanparikh> Help?
[23:55] <usr13> dpkg-reconfigure pulseaudio
[23:55] <x86> wanna code for ubuntu... where to start ?
[23:55] <g0th> that doesn't do much
[23:56] <usr13> http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[23:56] <doctorly> Hi, I have ubuntu starting in text mode. When I startx, it hangs on the purple screen without loading anything else. The mouse works, and when I hit the power button, the power options show up, anyone know what Im missing?
[23:57] <seba_> Hi Guys!
[23:57] <usr13> doctorly: 12.04?
[23:57] <seba_> How to turn on auto hide left bar in ubuntu 2d mode ?
[23:57] <doctorly> yeah, it is
[23:58] <usr13> !nomodeset | doctorly
[23:58] <usr13> doctorly: Did it happen after updates?
[23:58] <x86> usr13 : looked the whole site but couldn't really start
[23:58] <doctorly> Im not sure, I set it to text after the updates
[23:59] <chintanparikh> Anyone know how I can change the screen resolution in Ubuntu when the correct resolution doesnt show up in the options?
