[00:00] <Therapy> Have not tried different ports but I use one on the motherboard anyway; could try another one. Okay, I'll be right back, gonna run the memtest.
[00:01] <s0u][ight> hello, i'm using ubuntu 13.04, webcam works fine in apps like cheese, but google-chrome can't access it (webrtc examples and flash websites), is there a way to debug it?
[00:03] <daftykins> s0u][ight: i wonder if you need to right click on the flash player and go to settings to enable it to use your devices
[00:03] <s0u][ight> daftykins: it's not a flash issue, it doesn't work on webrtc examples as well
[00:04] <daftykins> i'm not even familiar with that
[00:04] <daftykins> fair enough - that's my only idea out :)
[00:04] <s0u][ight> daftykins: thanks anyway
[00:05] <daftykins> s0u][ight: np :)

[00:29] <GH0> Hello, I seem to have run into an issue with two files not appearing in KDE's menu, however, when attempting to rescan and re-add these, I get the following errors.
[00:29] <GH0> kbuildsycoca4(17434) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry: List entry Keywords in "/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop" is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon).
[00:29] <GH0> kbuildsycoca4(17434) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry: List entry Categories in "/usr/share/applications/kde4/k4dirstat.desktop" is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon)
[00:29] <GH0>  However, I noticed that not all files in the folder have a trailing semicolon, so I was wondering if anyone could either paste their files listed in that folder, or if they could show me a way to replace those files through a reinstall or something? Purge and aptitude reinstall does not resolve the problem.
[00:30] <GH0> To be clear, I am rescanning with this "kbuildsycoca4 -noincremental"
[00:35] <Therapy> uhhh what was his name... Hi again, I was here about 30 mins ago requesting some help with ubuntu installation; i've tried to install both, 12.04 and 13.04 versions via usb device, it works fine on language selection screen and till next screen where it offers to install the system, try it out or run memory test. If I try to run it without installation or install it, in either case it starts doing some stuff (can't read, the text changes way too fast) for a f
[00:35] <Therapy> leaving me with a black screen as if it's turned on but not getting any signal from pc
[00:36] <Therapy> I was told to try again but via another usb port (didnt help) and to run memory test; it says everything is fine.
[00:36] <Therapy> Any idea what to do now?
[00:39] <samuel_> Hola
[00:41] <Therapy> :(
[00:48] <daftykins> Therapy: o/
[00:48] <daftykins> sorry was in a game
[00:49] <daftykins> Therapy: hrmm sounds like a graphics issue potentially, do you know what graphics card is in there?
[00:52] <Therapy> daftykins np. Well, if you're asking about graphic card in general, then Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT; if you're asking about something else I'm afraid I'll need to google that, lol.
[00:53] <wushu> i am trying to install 13.04 desktop w FDE, but getting missing operating system when trying to boot. installed from usb, and checked off full disk encryption. does anyone know what i am doing wrong?
[00:54] <elderx> wushu: are you sure you are trying to boot from correct drive ?
[00:55] <elderx> wushu: do you have more than 1 hdd/ssd installed ?
[00:55] <wushu> 100% sure as it is the only drive connected to the motherboard. removed the live ubuntu usb drive when booting up after installing.
[00:56] <daftykins> Therapy: nah that'll be the one - hrmmph, were you getting this with both ubuntu versions you've tried?
[00:56] <failmaster> wushu, are you sure nothing went wrong on the bootloader installation step?
[00:56] <k0d3g3ar> hello world
[00:58] <Therapy> daftykins ye, exactly the same with both versions
[00:59] <daftykins> !nomodeset | Therapy
[00:59] <daftykins> Therapy: give that one a whirl ^
[00:59] <Therapy> *reading*
[00:59] <wushu> failmaster: i installed from the gui, and i do not think there were anywhere i could choose where to install the bootloader.
[01:01] <Therapy> daftykins; ubottu thanks, gonna try it out right now
[01:02] <elderx> wushu: multiple partitions or everything on one ?
[01:03] <perre`vl>  g'night
[01:03] <perre`vl> someone could help me out with some raid 1 questions ?
[01:04] <wushu> gparted says there are three: /dev/sda1 (fat32), /dev/sda2 (ext2) and /dev/sda3 (crypt-luks)
[01:04] <wushu> elderx: i did not attempt to install with any additional or custom partitions
[01:05] <elderx> wushu: i had once a problem when ubuntu installed grun on my usb stick and not on hdd
[01:05] <elderx> grub*
[01:10] <powhatan-dan> I believe the first two would be your drives wushu
[01:11] <powhatan-dan> Not sure what the third one is
[01:11] <powhatan-dan> What is the available space on the three recognized?
[01:12] <wushu> sda1 190MiB, sda2 244Mib, sda3 465GiB
[01:12] <Therapy> K SO LIEK, it worked out! Thanks for the help daftykins and... uh, the other guy.
[01:12] <Therapy> not gonna continiue now tho; sleep time. Thanks for the help and GN!
[01:12] <powhatan-dan> Ok
[01:13] <powhatan-dan> So sda3 is your main drive
[01:13] <wushu> yup
[01:13] <powhatan-dan> Are your drives SCSI?
[01:14] <failmaster> i would go to chroot and see where is it exactly
[01:14] <powhatan-dan> You are doing raid 1 correct?
[01:14] <wushu> not sure to be honest, but i am pretty sure sda1,2 and 3 are partitions on the same drive. not any raid involved
[01:14] <chrs_> has anyone got exfat filesystem support in chrubuntu arm?
[01:14] <failmaster> wushu, lvm?
[01:15] <powhatan-dan> Yes it appears that way
[01:15] <wushu> what is lvm?
[01:15] <powhatan-dan> I wasn't sure if raid #1 is what you were trying to accomplish
[01:15] <powhatan-dan> Are you just looking to install?
[01:16] <wushu> yup with full disk encryption
[01:16] <wushu> plain and simple
[01:16] <failmaster> wushu, during setup over gui installer i suspect it could make u to use lvm somehow, in that case the process of mounting i described will include additional steps
[01:16] <wushu> only got one drive connected to the motherboard and one usb drive with live ubuntu
[01:16] <failmaster> !lvm
[01:16] <failmaster> nooo
[01:17] <powhatan-dan> He only has one drive so I'm pretty sure he's not trying raid #1
[01:17] <anotherjoe> anyone know how to disable 3d effects from an ssh shell
[01:17] <wushu> powhatan-dan: correct
[01:17] <failmaster> powhatan-dan, such setups howtos often include lvm due to the option of resizing encrypted partitions
[01:18] <wushu> so guys, what is lvm? raid simulation of some sort?
[01:18] <failmaster> so in order to cover all possible troubleshoot steps it would be good to know if it's true for this case
[01:18] <powhatan-dan> Logical Volume Management
[01:18] <wushu> right, will look that up thx
[01:19] <failmaster> i would go through classy debian installer for setting up such configuration (alternate cd or server)
[01:19] <failmaster> and it's better to choose 12.04 against 13.04
[01:19] <failmaster> in that case
[01:20] <powhatan-dan> I'm sorry for stepping in failmaster I wasnt sure if someone was helping him
[01:20] <wushu> the thing is that this seems a bit odd to me as i am only trying to install the latest ubuntu desktop on a single hdd without any fancyness
[01:20] <failmaster> powhatan-dan, it doesn't work like that, everybody is involved, come on, it's a party! :D
[01:21] <wushu> the more the merrier i guess :D
[01:21] <powhatan-dan> I would select sda3 and move forward with the install
[01:21] <failmaster> wushu, latest and stable are somewhat different on practice
[01:21] <wushu> 13.04 should be stable, right?
[01:22] <failmaster> wushu, i would choose 12.04 alternate or server
[01:22] <powhatan-dan> That's what I use but it's a development version and doesn't have long term support
[01:22] <powhatan-dan> Can't wait for a stable saucy salamander
[01:22] <failmaster> i've just met an issue on 13.04 during set up with key file authorization for /
[01:23] <wushu> yeah, the only reason i went for 13.04 was the gui support for FDE. i guess i will just go with 12.04 like you said failmaster
[01:23] <failmaster> so imho it's clear that 12.04 is preferable
[01:24] <failmaster> gui implementation of luks setup appeared later, so according to my logical conclusions classy setup would be more stable
[01:25] <failmaster> besides that you won't forget about things because every step to set it up is described and understandable
[01:25] <failmaster> e.g. the chance i will forget where is my bootloader is lower
[01:26] <failmaster> but that's just me
[01:26] <failmaster> maybe it's all okay with gui too
[01:28] <wushu> alright thanks for the help. will drop by here again if i cant get it to work. you guys are great!
[01:28] <failmaster> wushu, you're welcome
[01:29] <powhatan-dan> Sweet
[01:29] <powhatan-dan> Take care wushu
[01:31] <Guest68418> does Ubuntu Touch have "emergency" remote access to all users who use the OS, just like Google does with Android and Apply with iOS?
[01:31] <Guest68418> Apple*
[01:32] <wilee-nilee> !touch | Guest68418
[01:33] <failmaster> Guest66719, define "emergency access"
[01:33] <wilee-nilee> support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch
[01:33] <goddard> it will really help
[01:33] <goddard> can some one help me with this issue http://askubuntu.com/questions/327249/2-amd-7950s-do-not-work-in-crossfire-mode?noredirect=1#comment420184_327249
[01:34] <Guest68418> meaning Ubuntu/Canonical can access your smartphone anytime they deem something as an "emergency"
[01:34] <Guest68418> for "security purposes"
[01:34] <failmaster> no?
[01:34] <wilee-nilee> take it to the correct channel
[01:36] <larzconwell> So I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a uefi system, so I'm following along https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#Installing_Ubuntu_in_EFI_mode, but I can't seem to get the liveusb to boot.
[01:37] <wilee-nilee> larzconwell, Best support is at the UF, here is a thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295
[01:38] <larzconwell> wilee-nilee: Okay I'll check it out thank you.
[01:38] <tones> which are better ubunutuforums or askubuntu?
[01:38] <wilee-nilee> tones, There is no better that is an opinion, bit have their merits.
[01:38] <wilee-nilee> both
[01:39] <tones> which one do you post the most to?
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> tones, Neither, however under 3 diffrent nicks I have about 12, 000 or so post at the UF, I retired my last account.
[01:40] <tones> why did you retire?
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> the UF has the most online users probably a faster response depending ion the issue
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> tones, To much drama.
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> in my opinion.
[01:41] <tones> less drama here

[02:19] <somsip> arooni-mobile__: not sure if whitespace make a different in interface files, but in mine dns-servers is indented under iface, and someone else suggested you try separate lnes.
[02:19] <Guest68418> lkthomas, what if he said he doesn't care if he gets shot? and you didn't give him the answer about the Ubuntu commands

[02:20] <roots47> Hey all, I'm looking to destroy my windows 7 install and replace it with the latest version of ubuntu.  Is there some way to accomplish this without worrying about downloading and burning a disk?
[02:21] <Snuffelz> roots47: create a usb stick installer with the unetbootin tool. The partition editor in the installer will definitely wipe out windows 7 for you.
[02:22] <Snuffelz> root47: be warned though it will wipe out all data on that usb flash drive
[02:27] <espatula> hi, i have a task in my office, they want me to install ubuntu or ubuntu server; we are storing images so we can access them through ftp and use tools to restore OS's
[02:27] <daftykins> if you know/want to learn command line you could go the server route, or if you prefer graphical methods, go desktop
[02:27] <espatula> so whats better just get ubuntu and install some filezilla or use ubuntu server and configure as it
[02:28] <espatula> i know some command line but never really use server editions
[02:29] <Guest68418> espatula, i'd use Ubuntu Desktop since it is images, it makes life easier when you want to actually see what the images are
[02:29] <daftykins> espatula: hrmm, guess it depends how much time you want to put in then
[02:29] <espatula> and sure as hell dont know how to configure it
[02:29] <daftykins> Guest68418: i think he means ISOs
[02:29] <Guest68418> oh
[02:29] <espatula> no, there operating systems
[02:29] <espatula> yup isos
[02:29] <espatula> sorry
[02:29] <daftykins> ^_^
[02:30] <daftykins> espatula: well, after the server install 'tasksel' would run and ask what roles you want the system to fulfill, should be pretty easy
[02:30] <espatula> in the area i work i have enough spare time to learn
[02:30] <espatula> so for time its good
[02:31] <bo0t_versus_one> dime a ver espatula
[02:31] <Guest68418> espatula, when do you need to get it done?
[02:31] <espatula> si
[02:32] <bo0t_versus_one> de donde eres bros
[02:32] <espatula> well, at least the instalation tomorrow and the ftp service as well
[02:32] <espatula> del defectuoso
[02:32] <espatula> tu?
[02:32] <bo0t_versus_one> do
[02:33] <Guest68418> well, for you it might be easier to use the Desktop first since you need it by tomorrow and just learn Ubuntu  Server commands in your spare time
[02:33] <bo0t_versus_one> es raro encontrar alguien de habla hispana
[02:34] <Guest68418> in the future just switch to server
[02:34] <espatula> ps hace tiempo no ando por aqui y casi siempre vengo con dudas jajajaja, estoy intentando convertir mi oficina a linux
[02:34] <bo0t_versus_one> entiendo
[02:34] <bo0t_versus_one> si yo igual
[02:34] <bo0t_versus_one> he estado tratando de ver como ocultar el host por este medio
[02:38] <espatula> well i think thats what i have to do
[02:43] <roots47> Which USB creator should I use to burn the ubuntu image to USB?
[02:44] <daftykins> well i definitely hope there's no burning involved
[02:44] <daftykins> try the universal usb installer @ pendrivelinux.com
[02:44] <roots47> daftykins: Lol, burning... sorry, it's been a long day
[02:46] <daftykins> roots47: np :D
[02:46] <daftykins> roots47: "no USB devices were harmed in the making of this Linux install" will need to go on this system
[02:46] <roots47> lmao
[02:47] <espatula> lol
[02:48] <roots47> daftykins: what does "amd64" mean?
[02:49] <roots47> does this just mean 64 bit?
[02:49] <espatula> yes
[02:50] <powhatan-dan> amd is the manufacturer
[02:50] <roots47> Hmm it's saying to select my .iso file... but it doesn't seem to detect the file in the directory?
[02:51] <powhatan-dan> do you have all files selected for file types?
[02:52] <clj_newb_2345> Is there a way to (1) install only ubuntu (i.e. no OSX installation) and (2) yet don't have a stupid 20-second wait on every bootup as the open firmware searches for  a blesed partition (this is for a macbook pro)
[02:52] <SecretFire> how many litecoins per day with 72 GH s
[02:52] <SecretFire> ?
[02:54] <roots47> powhatan-dan: Yes, it turns out I selected "Xubuntu 13.04" instead of "Ubuntu 13.04" whoops
[02:55] <daftykins> clj_newb_2345: keeping OS X for firmware updates is wise
[02:55] <clj_newb_2345> daftykins why do I need firmware updates?
[02:55] <daftykins> to fix things...
[02:55] <powhatan-dan> you still have time to change your mind
[02:56] <clj_newb_2345> err, how often is something broken in the firmware?
[02:56] <daftykins> ;)
[02:56] <clj_newb_2345> I don't need any of the advanced features
[02:57] <powhatan-dan> xubuntu 13.04 will have to be booted from USB
[02:57] <powhatan-dan> regular ubuntu 13.04 will fit on a disc
[02:58] <syn-ack> They should both be able to fit on a CD, muchless a DVD

[02:59] <roots47> Hey all.  Is there some way to hack around viewing, and sort of working with adobe photoshop PSDs in linux?  I currently pay for creative cloud on windows, but don't want to have to switch computers any time I need to do some basic work with the files.
[03:00] <powhatan-dan> dual boot and still have widows/mac/photoshop
[03:00] <powhatan-dan> or use gimp
[03:00] <powhatan-dan> and inkscape
[03:00] <roots47> powhatan: Is it easy to go from straight linux, to windows 7 dual boot?
[03:00] <roots47> powhatan-dan: Do gimp and inkscape open psds?
[03:00] <powhatan-dan> Yes
[03:01] <powhatan-dan> No
[03:01] <jrib> roots47: probably works ok in a vm
[03:01] <powhatan-dan> not too bad
[03:01] <roots47> jrib: Ok, I figured that was probably the only solution
[03:01] <roots47> thanks
[03:01] <powhatan-dan> Are you using windows?
[03:01] <jrib> !appdb | roots47
[03:01] <jrib> roots47: you can check status with wine too
[03:01] <fnordling> Hello - I am having fan control issues, prolly from GPU. Is proprietary AMD Catalyst driver worth installing?
[03:01] <powhatan-dan> I ran ubuntu in vmware on my mac at work and it was pretty slow
[03:01] <roots47> powhatan-dan: i have a very fast system
[03:02] <powhatan-dan> windows?
[03:02] <roots47> powhatan-dan: and really, the processing would be happening on the remote box
[03:02] <daftykins> fnordling: if it won't spin up the fan and overheats, it's definitely worth a go
[03:02] <roots47> powhatan-dan: at the moment, yes
[03:02] <powhatan-dan> ok
[03:02] <roots47> powhatan-dan: i'm switching to ubuntu
[03:02] <roots47> powhatan-dan: doing a full over-write for the time being
[03:02] <powhatan-dan> I think you could use wubi
[03:03] <powhatan-dan> wubi will allow you to run ubuntu like a program within windows
[03:03] <fnordling> daftykins: my problem is fan running too much now
[03:03] <daftykins> oh dear tux, never recommend wubi D:
[03:03] <powhatan-dan> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/windows-installer
[03:03] <powhatan-dan> sorry
[03:03] <daftykins> fnordling: oh yeah, should help that too
[03:04] <powhatan-dan> I was trying to think a decent solution for him to keep his adobe suite
[03:04] <powhatan-dan> I recommend dual boot personally
[03:04] <fnordling> daftykins: 'k thanks. give it a go then
[03:04] <roots47> I appreciate it, but I think I'll probably try the VM solution for graphics and see if that works fast enough
[03:04] <roots47> powhatan-dan: if that doesn't work, then dual boot might be the best solution
[03:04] <powhatan-dan> Absolutely that's a decent solution
[03:05] <powhatan-dan> Just make sure you watch the performance
[03:05] <powhatan-dan> Nothing worse than lag when designing
[03:05] <xmetal> personally i rather dualboot then setup "Linux in WIndows" (that doesn't mean VMware)
[03:05] <roots47> powhatan-dan: that's the only thing I'm worried about... luckily I'm more involved with code than with actual designing
[03:05] <roots47> powhatan-dan: I basically just view the designs for dimensions, etc
[03:05] <xmetal> still if i like the distro enough... dualboot is what i'd do
[03:05] <powhatan-dan> Correct i'm with xmetal all the way
[03:05] <daftykins> roots47: i think virtualising Windows on top would be more appropriate for you, no painful rebooting that way
[03:05] <powhatan-dan> If your a code guy then you should be linux/ubuntu all the way
[03:06] <powhatan-dan> as your primary system
[03:06] <roots47> daftykins: exactly
[03:06] <roots47> I'm at a point now where windows just seems to be slowing me down
[03:06] <Guest95632> linux ftw
[03:06] <powhatan-dan> btw geany is a nice program for an IDE
[03:07] <roots47> powhatan-dan: thanks, I'll check it out
[03:07] <powhatan-dan> I was able to easily install notepad++ through wine which was also great for writing code
[03:07] <daftykins> roots47: definitely get your Linux on there, then virtualbox it up :)
[03:08] <powhatan-dan> Linux should be your primary setup
[03:08] <ESphynx> Hey how about trying out the Ecere IDE and giving me some feedback? :)
[03:08] <powhatan-dan> No problem
[03:08] <roots47> powhatan-dan: Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing how much more productive I can be
[03:08] <xmetal> with some exceptions, i use many of the same programs in both os's (no amtter what 'nix distro) .. Libree office, firefox, and thunderbird just to name 3
[03:08] <Ghjnut> If I have an external hard drive with an NTFS partition, what permissions do I need to change so I can access it from a Win7 rig
[03:08] <xmetal> oops @ my spelling
[03:08] <powhatan-dan> sudo apt-get ecere
[03:08] <xmetal> VLC is another
[03:08] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: sudo apt-get install ecere-sdk
[03:09] <daftykins> Ghjnut: you'll need your Windows user to have rights on it - but it should just handle it fine
[03:09] <powhatan-dan> ok
[03:09] <Ghjnut> For some reason I'm getting permission issues when i plug it into the windows machine
[03:09] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: I'm working on a pre-release right now and there will be another iteration before the one that goes in Saucy Salamander hopefuilly :)
[03:10] <powhatan-dan> Can't wait for a stable saucy salamander
[03:11] <Ghjnut> daftykins: Is there a way I can get rid of permissions?
[03:11] <powhatan-dan> ESphynx: I like IDE's that highlights code in blocks or represents them in the lines to the left of the code
[03:11] <daftykins> not really no :(
[03:11] <xmetal> love when windows throws the "Administrator does not administrator permissons" errors
[03:11] <Ghjnut> Well, a+rw for windows
[03:11] <daftykins> Ghjnut: they exist to drive us insane
[03:11] <xmetal> lol
[03:12] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: code in blocks?  like being able to highlight portions on the left side without portions of the right side?
[03:13] <powhatan-dan> more of a readability issue for me
[03:13] <powhatan-dan> makes it easier to read
[03:13] <powhatan-dan> and quickly move blocks of code
[03:13] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: but what do you mean?
[03:14] <powhatan-dan> view this image
[03:14] <powhatan-dan> http://notepad-plus-plus.org/assets/images/notepad4ever.gif
[03:14] <ESphynx> thanks. an image is worth a thousand words :)
[03:14] <powhatan-dan> you see the - sign
[03:14] <dr_willis> geany and some editors like vi and emacs have  folding features i recall to keep cide in discrete  blocks
[03:14] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: The collapse feature of blocks?
[03:14] <powhatan-dan> exactly
[03:14] <powhatan-dan> yes
[03:14] <punkmexic> hello how can i make transmission to download torrents from chrome?? when i click on magnet link it opens other chrome windows
[03:14] <powhatan-dan> when moving things in php it makes it so easy
[03:15] <maitake> i tried sublime text lately.. loved it immediately and blew the 70 dollars on a registered copy :)
[03:15] <dr_willis> looks like folding to me  powhatan-dan
[03:15] <powhatan-dan> lol nice
[03:15] <powhatan-dan> yes it is
[03:15] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: we got that as feature request http://ecere.com/mantis/view.php?id=684  :P Submitted in February last year
[03:15] <powhatan-dan> ahh
[03:15] <ESphynx> unfortunately not high priority right now, but contributions are welcome :P
[03:15] <ESphynx> what's the other thing?  like a lines overview?
[03:16] <ESphynx> how do you display on the left side as lines?
[03:16] <Ghjnut> Maybe a better question to ask would be: If I want to transfer files from an ubuntu install to a windows 7 machine via an external, how should I format the partition?
[03:16] <maitake> sublime text <3 :http://i.imgur.com/Cf18pGN.png
[03:16] <Ghjnut> external hard drive*
[03:17] <icelite> Hi
[03:17] <powhatan-dan> sorry stepped away for a minute esphynx
[03:17] <dr_willis> Ghjnut:  ntfs or fat32
[03:17] <powhatan-dan> I'm kind of blown away at how polished your IDE is
[03:17] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: which ide?
[03:17] <maitake> which one powhatan-dan ?
[03:18] <powhatan-dan> ecere-sdk
[03:18] <ESphynx> Ohhh are you?
[03:18] <ESphynx> thanks :) hehe
[03:18] <powhatan-dan> wasn't expecting that
[03:18] <ESphynx> I don't quite consider it polished yet, but I'm sure it will be when the community kickstarts :P
[03:18] <maitake> this? http://www.ecere.com/wiki/images/0/01/IdeShotSept2011.png
[03:18] <Ghjnut> dr_willis: ntfs
[03:18] <Ghjnut> dr_willis: At least that's how I currently have it formatted
[03:19] <ESphynx> maitake:   http://www.ecere.com/tmp/ideShotJuly2013%20Wide.png -- newer shot :P
[03:19] <powhatan-dan> very nice
[03:20] <powhatan-dan> the keyboard shortcuts to highlight work fine
[03:20] <xmetal> wow i  had too much coffee lol ...feel like i am vibrating in my chair
[03:20] <powhatan-dan> that's always my biggest concern lol
[03:20] <maitake> not bad ESphynx
[03:20] <daftykins> xmetal: oh sorry that was me
[03:20] <ESphynx> also, http://ecere.com/gnosis/gnosis44.jpg  http://ecere.com/gnosis/gnosis42.jpg -- upcoming 2D/3D GIS toolkit based on the Ecere SDK :)
[03:21] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: oh well there ya go! lol There are also global settings options for difference preferenes... like caret past end of line
[03:21] <powhatan-dan> nope those are fine
[03:21] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: and cool samples like a 3D chess game :)
[03:21] <rolando> hi
[03:21] <ESphynx> oh yay a free caret lover \o/
[03:21] <powhatan-dan> ctrl + shift + down arrow
[03:22] <powhatan-dan> works perfect
[03:22] <roots47> So, the ISO I downloaded is apparently just Ubuntu 13.04, but I see there is also a "Gnome" version.  Does the desktop version come with any windows?
[03:22] <xirre> If someone gets access to your SSH, what should you do? As precaution.
[03:22] <roots47> Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop*
[03:22] <rjknight1> firewall
[03:22] <rjknight1> deny port ssh
[03:23] <ESphynx> powhatan-dan: Did you check out those gnosis shots? :)
[03:23] <xirre> How would I do that under Ubuntu 13.04?
[03:24] <xmetal> like with mint, in ubuntu, you should be able to download ifferent desktops to suit your need (Gnome, kde, xfce, ..etc)
[03:25] <daftykins> you can
[03:25] <xmetal> i usually pick one to download for the iso and then after i install it, i download the other DE's
[03:25] <xmetal> as long as i can switch (i can) ... i never really care which one i get for the "intial installer" (ISO)
[03:25] <roots47> xmetal: So Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop is fine?
[03:26] <roots47> xmetal: I wasn't sure if this came with a particular windows installed or something
[03:26] <rjknight1> @xirre use ufw
[03:26] <xmetal> not sure what dE that uses .. I am getting the idea that it's "Unity" ... if you want gnome or KDE for example, you can download the packages for those two and install them and switch anytime you want :)
[03:27] <xmetal> (Disclaimer: I do not use Ubuntu, but it and the one I use "Linux Mint" are very similar)
[03:27] <xmetal> ubuntu users may be able to help more
[03:27] <xmetal> the "usual" ISOs for any distro are usually Live CD/DVDs
[03:27] <xmetal> which reminds me i need to backup a few isos :)
[03:27] <xmetal> brb
[03:29] <dr_willis> unity is the default desktop
[03:30] <dr_willis> !unity
[03:30] <roots47> xmetal: in your honest opinion, what do you like about mint over ubuntu? if anything?
[03:30] <lolcat> Unity is gardbadge meant to be used on touch screens
[03:30] <roots47> xmetal: One of the sys-admin guys at my old work used mint and liked it
[03:30] <dr_willis> its trivial to install extra desktops
[03:30] <dr_willis> !fud
[03:30] <xmetal> i agree ..,. its a piece of cake to install them
[03:31] <rhtrar_> oh, i'm glad i'm not the only one who hates unity
[03:31] <dr_willis> menu
[03:31] <xmetal> really i cant comment on Ubuntu since last i used it, was version 10.10 ... unity turns me off, but the two are so similar i think i dont feel the need for both
[03:31] <xmetal> (ubuntu and Mint)
[03:31] <xmetal> they both are good
[03:32] <maitake> ubuntu and xfce is a great pair
[03:32] <roots47> I'm pretty new to the linux world.  I am a developer, is there anything, in mint or ubuntu that would make my life easier as a developer? Or are the differences very subtle?
[03:32] <maitake> xubuntu or otherwise
[03:32] <xmetal> xfce is what i use on alot of distros
[03:32] <dr_willis> roots47:  developing what?
[03:32] <maitake> i modified my xfce install a LOT.. looks wicked sexy
[03:32] <xmetal> for new users i recommend Mint or Ubuntu (just without unity)
[03:33] <roots47> dr_willis: Mostly javascript, we use git, and experimenting with other languages
[03:33] <maitake> yeah mint is nice
[03:33] <xmetal> i like the fact that with both distro's (especially with each version of either) i dont have to spend hours trying to configure it
[03:33] <maitake> me too
[03:33] <xmetal> (hours = may be pushing it for a choice of words)
[03:33] <roots47> hehe
[03:34] <dr_willis> unity is fine. wife and grandkids can handle it. they dont have the preconceived  notions of how a desktop should be
[03:34] <maitake> but then if you want to configure and tweak lots of things, the sky is the limit :)
[03:34] <maitake> unlike windows
[03:34] <xmetal> i just dont care for Unity (only my personal opinion) .. i like almost anything else
[03:34] <xmetal> (Xfce, lxde (i think i got that right), KDE, or Gnome
[03:35] <xmetal> )
[03:35] <steve228> I have a question about the app launcher Docky, but went to their IRC channel and nobody would even respond... Is there anybody in here that has experience with docky?
[03:35] <maitake> yeah it's fair.. unity does it's thing well but isn't for everyone
[03:35] <dr_willis> i am getting too used to android type desktops.. i try android things on the pc. ;-)  out of habbit
[03:35] <maitake> steve228: I do
[03:35] <maitake> what you want to know?
[03:35] <xmetal> true .. i am just saying i dont like it ... some users love it and i say "use what you like"
[03:35] <maitake> android is cool
[03:35] <xmetal> thats the thing i love about linux .. your not stuck with "one or the other"
[03:35] <xmetal> :)
[03:36] <maitake> xmetal: yeah haha. honestly i think the divide among gnome 3 users and non-users is worse.. lots of trash talk
[03:36] <maitake> exactly
[03:36] <maitake> steve228: what's your question?
[03:36] <xmetal> i never heard of lxde til a week ago and i have to say i really like it
[03:37] <steve228> I have the dock installed and tried to use the terminal helper, but it is not working
[03:37] <maitake> oh :(
[03:37] <maitake> i never had much luck with the helpers either
[03:37] <xmetal> (i hope i have that right :P .. close enough)
[03:37] <maitake> not sure why
[03:37] <steve228> I dragged my home folder to the dock and it is not adding a menu entry for opening a terminal
[03:38] <steve228> is there maybe a config file that I can tinker with
[03:38] <maitake> well maybe i'm not who you need to ask after all :( i've toyed with docky a lot but never bothered to try and make the helpers work
[03:38] <maitake> steve228: there's dconf-editor
[03:38] <steve228> what about nautilus scripts?
[03:38] <steve228> because that would be just as good
[03:38] <maitake> docky options show up under Apps -> Docky
[03:39] <steve228> thanks..
[03:39] <maitake> steve228: oops, misled you..
[03:39] <maitake> not dconf-editor, but gconf-editor :)
[03:40] <maitake> should see a lot of docky options when you expand 'apps'
[03:43] <steve228> and how do you get my name in front of your message? is that a command (sorry I haven't used IRC in a while)
[03:43] <steve228> yea i already had gconf up lol thanks though...
[03:44] <steve228> maitake: were you typing my name before writing your message, or is it a command (sorry haven't used IRC in a while)
[03:45] <maitake> steve228: ah, that can depend
[03:45] <maitake> i'm using xchat to connect to IRC
[03:46] <maitake> and it has auto-complete.. I type 'st' or 'ste' and hit tab and it completes to 'steve228'
[03:46] <wiak> maitake,
[03:46] <xmetal> tab?... hmm hexchat doesn't seem to do that
[03:46] <wiak> ls
[03:46] <wiak> :P
[03:46] <xmetal> (xchat "fork")
[03:46] <wiak> irssi does that to
[03:46] <maitake> hexchat doesn't?
[03:46] <xmetal> oh wait
[03:47] <xmetal> n/m
[03:47] <maitake> i can't imagine it doesn't
[03:47] <maitake> haha
[03:47] <xmetal> :P
[03:47] <maitake> oh okay
[03:47] <wiak> do anyone have a good hdd to ssd clone tool?
[03:47] <wiak> ?
[03:47] <xmetal> maitake, (testing that feature)
[03:47] <xmetal> there we go
[03:47] <xmetal> :P
[03:47] <maitake> :)
[03:47] <maitake> i changed the ',' prefix to ':' in the options
[03:48] <maitake> xmetal: xmetal xmetal xmetal
[03:48] <PepperoniPizza> sup ubuntuers
[03:49] <maitake> just ubuntuing, you know
[03:50] <maitake> might ubuntu off and go to bed
[03:51] <ubulost> beginner question: is the Domain the same things as the workgroup to an ubuntu server?
[03:54] <dr_willis> wiak:  clonezilla
[03:54] <rjknight1> @ubulost: nope.. workgroup is for file sharing.. domain is like a hostname
[03:54] <failmaster> i have a problem switching luks passphrase authorization to key file for root fs on 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/238163/comments/18 anyone?
[03:56] <failmaster> i also have a problem using usb keyboard at the boot stage, but all necessary modules are loaded and keyboard detected in initramfs environment
[03:56] <failmaster> without any anomalies in dmesg
[03:57] <failmaster> i'm in desperate guys =)
[03:57] <dr_willis> you mean at the grub menu? or where?
[03:57] <failmaster> third day without any backup from community
[03:57] <failmaster> at the stage when luks wants my authorization on first reboot
[03:57] <failmaster> but the main problem is about key file
[03:58] <dr_willis> i dont know about luks. but i had usb keyboard issues once. bios setting for legacy usb  fixed it
[03:59] <failmaster> i had it too and it was bug and it was fixed and now it has another symptoms and not related to not included usbhid module
[03:59] <Programmer_> for some reason my touchpad keeps getting disabled. how do i prevent that?
[03:59] <failmaster> Programmer_, dmesg says anything related to it's behavior?
[03:59] <Programmer_> what do you mean?
[04:00] <Programmer_> xinput set-prop 12 "Device Enabled" 1 fixes it, but that's only temparary
[04:00] <failmaster> i mean that such behavior if it caused by hardware or module problems will cause filling log files with new lines Programmer_ just type dmesg in console
[04:01] <Programmer_> what am i searching for? big file...
[04:02] <failmaster> Programmer_, put it on pastebin.ubuntu.com and bring it here to troublshoot the problem
[04:02] <dr_willis> use  tail -f  to monitor it.. see what it says when it happens
[04:02] <Programmer_> http://pastebin.com/5KZjaEyN
[04:02] <Programmer_> it only happens when i reboot
[04:03] <failmaster> oh gosh
[04:04] <Programmer_> ?
[04:04] <failmaster> Programmer_, lsusb and lspci please
[04:04] <Programmer_> http://pastebin.com/zLDcycYq
[04:08] <reazem> Netbeans can only debug properly when I run it with sudo. Any ideas?
[04:09] <failmaster> Programmer_, i can't see anything wrong related to touchpad that would directly point to the problem, is it that "Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0461:4d46 Primax Electronics, Ltd" thing?
[04:09] <Programmer_> huh? my touchpad is synaptics
[04:10] <failmaster> Programmer_, ok, so it doesn't change the state after reboot, always turns itself off?
[04:10] <Programmer_> yea for some reason
[04:10] <failmaster> does it have hardware button?
[04:11] <failmaster> Programmer_, for turning it on and off
[04:14] <albern123> hello
[04:14] <failmaster> reazem, i'm not that much programmer but maybe debugging requires root privileges due to some kind of security-related things? (or it used to work without it?)
[04:15] <reazem> failmaster, For more details, this is my error message: "GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted"
[04:16] <failmaster> reazem, here you go https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdb/+bug/469005
[04:17] <failmaster> kkep an eye on it
[04:17] <failmaster> i have a problem switching luks passphrase authorization to key file for root fs on 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/238163/comments/18 anyone?
[04:20] <reazem> failmaster, Thats's your post? Yes this is how crypttab works. Put a passwork too if you're scared.
[04:21] <failmaster> reazem, what?
[04:21] <failmaster> i just found a bug related to gdm issue
[04:21] <failmaster> my problem is about switching to key file
[04:22] <failmaster> reazem, so the password authorization is not something i really need
[04:22] <reazem> failmaster, I tought you were scared to reboot lol
[04:22] <failmaster> reazem, i already did, i just described the consequences
[04:23] <failmaster> of the issue
[04:23] <reazem> failmaster, are you using the same keyfile or is that not your crypttab?
[04:23] <failmaster> because it is issue, since this scheme used to work on 12.04 and it still works for sdb1 drive presented on the system
[04:23] <icelite> Hi
[04:23] <failmaster> reazem, i don't see the reason to use another one in context of situation
[04:24] <reazem> failmaster, did you manage to mount the drive manualy with the keyfile after?
[04:25] <failmaster> what is strange is that maybe i have a clue why is this happening, but no one tries to discuss the subject for three days, not into question branch on launchpad, not into this bug report
[04:25] <failmaster> reazem, yes under chroot environment
[04:25] <reazem> failmaster, try usind uuid
[04:26] <failmaster> it is already using uuid
[04:26] <reazem> oh lol
[04:26] <failmaster> as it written on crypttab at first manner and due to what i see in grub.cfg
[04:26] <reazem> when you mounted manually, you used uuid?
[04:27] <failmaster> reazem, i tried both ways
[04:27] <failmaster> mounts fine
[04:27] <failmaster> and i also checked if this uuid is the same one under initrd image contents
[04:28] <aleksey2013> !ru
[04:29] <reazem> failmaster, can we be sure /boot is mounted at that point?
[04:29] <failmaster> reazem, it works with /deb/sdb1 and used to work for all hdds in system on 12.04
[04:30] <aleksey2013> can anyone help?   TeamViewer 8
[04:30] <roots47> Hey everyone... So I'm on one of the first steup screens for ubuntuits saying to make sure its plugged into a power source and that it's connected to the internet.   I tried wiring my laptop directly, but it didn't seem to recognize the internet, is this a problem?  Will I be able to obtain all the necessary drivers?
[04:30] <failmaster> so i assume it is mounted since sdb1 drive stopped asking for password with the only key slot 0 containing key file
[04:30] <rjknight1> use italc for teamviewer
[04:30] <rjknight1> or vncviewer
[04:30] <aleksey2013> (
[04:31] <aleksey2013> need help to come to check the log and the problem of video on the band flashes
[04:31] <failmaster> reazem, why blkid under initramfs environment doesn't show anything but 2 luks-encrypted devices?
[04:32] <reazem> I don't know how things play out at boot.
[04:32] <failmaster> there are 2 more usb devices and usb modules are present, while usb keyboard doesn't work, but if it was the reason, how comes that keyfile mounts sdb1 alone on this stage
[04:32] <reazem> did you try switching the order?
[04:33] <xmetal> i cant speak for drivers @ roots ... i dont usually install Mint/Ubuntu while on thne net and it goes fine
[04:33] <failmaster> why should i? there is nothing related to the order
[04:33] <xmetal> every PC is different though .. yours "may need" extra drivers
[04:34] <failmaster> i keep asking myself why i'm still here, because there is no way you will hear a word on launchpad and most probably no one will help me here =))
[04:34] <roots47> xmetal: alrighty, I'll give it a try... hopefully I can get online tomorrow for work :P
[04:34] <holstein> aleksey2013: teamview is an add-on 3rd party application.. you'll seek support with the package maintainer.. i just installed it today, and it worked fine
[04:34] <failmaster> i would switch to debian, but it has it's own issues
[04:34] <failmaster> according to my setup
[04:35] <xmetal> every pc is different, though i have never needed (for the most part) to be online to get drivers except once
[04:35] <aleksey2013> TeamViewer 8 works
[04:35] <xmetal> (back with ubuntu 9.04 i needed to manaully get wifi drivers)
[04:35] <aleksey2013> Who will go through it to help
[04:35] <xmetal> but that was a long time ago
[04:35] <xmetal> support has improved
[04:35] <reazem> failmaster, I run debian and it's all encrypted :)
[04:35] <failmaster> reazem, wheezy?
[04:35] <aleksey2013> )))
[04:36] <holstein> aleksey2013: maybe, and probably no one. state your issue and a volunteer will help if they can
[04:36] <reazem> failmaster, recently upgraded to jessy.
[04:36] <failmaster> reazem, passphrase?
[04:36] <reazem> failmaster, yeah I use a yubikey for my systems.
[04:36] <reazem> I don't really see a point in keyfiles.
[04:36] <roots47> xmetal: Can I more than likely at least find the drivers for my wireless card?
[04:37] <failmaster> reazem, does your usb keyboard works under initramfs? did u have issues with latest setup images? i did
[04:37] <roots47> xmetal: I can transfer them via some other means
[04:37] <reazem> failmaster, so did I for the keyboard lol
[04:38] <xmetal> likely .. i found that more recent versions of Mint (ubuntu is going to be the same way i bet) have had better support for hardware and I have not had to manually install anything
[04:38] <reazem> failmaster, that's actually the reason I used jessy. I wanted to reinstall my wheezy system and KB wouldn't work on latest wheezy image.
[04:38] <failmaster> reazem, try to take usb hdd and make cp netinst_or_dvd1.iso on it and get into expert install, did you meet the issue when it mounts wrong device as installation media?
[04:38] <xmetal> i'd try the live dvd/cd and see if it detects your hardware, befure you install it
[04:38] <xmetal> before *
[04:39] <xmetal> you can see if it see's your hardware before you install anything, that way
[04:39] <failmaster> reazem, i tired spending two days with those issues on wheezy this week
[04:39] <reazem> failmaster, Yeah i have had this issue too.
[04:39] <wilee-nilee> xmetal, Mint is based on ubuntu I doubt ubuntu will do anything they do, all the drivers are available in ubuntu you just have to work a little harder, that is mints point.
[04:39] <reazem> failmaster, Has to do with the fact that we are using USB I think
[04:40] <failmaster> reazem, and there are no guarantess i won't get into same situation i'm in now with key files
[04:40] <roots47> So yeah, I'm in ubuntu now, but it doesn't seem to be recognizing my wireless? Any ideas?
[04:40] <holstein> !wireless
[04:40] <leeping> y
[04:40] <reazem> failmaster, Heh. Depending on the complexity of your setup trying can take as few as 30 minutes.
[04:41] <reazem> failmaster, I can rebuild my whole system in 30mins script does it all.
[04:41] <reazem> failmaster, actually. I might do that tomorrow for my desktop. I'
[04:41] <reazem> im pissed at unstable ubuntu raring lol
[04:41] <failmaster> reazem, yeah, because it became too easy to install linux on desktops which caused hordes of people who doesn't need anything special to change priorities in distrib maintaining process to this current point where you can't get nothing to work from start until you need nothing but raw xfce/unity/gnome/kde desktop
[04:42] <roots47> xmetal: Too late.  Is there any way to figure out which drivers I need to dowload?
[04:42] <wilee-nilee> roots47, You said " I tried wiring my laptop directly" Ethernet right?
[04:42] <reazem> failmaster, You're on raring too?
[04:42] <failmaster> that's why if i won't deal with my current issues on ubuntu i won't come here anymore and won't provide any of my free time to help people to use linux
[04:43] <failmaster> reazem, unfortunately in my case it doesn't change anything, 13.04 or even debian so_stable wheezy, i am
[04:43] <reazem> failmaster, Just GTFO raring and get 12.10.
[04:43] <xmetal> well a simple web search should do it ... if you have another OS installed, get the name of your wifi adapter and search for that "and ubuntu" and see if you get any results
[04:43] <xmetal> (in "device manager")
[04:43] <xmetal> for example
[04:43] <failmaster> reazem, i'm talking about dealing with issues, getting rid of the whole instance is not a solution, it's an escape
[04:44] <reazem> failmaster, it's not supposed to be stable software. if there is really a bug, you'll have to touch souce to fix it.
[04:44] <failmaster> reazem, i very appreciate those couple of guys who paid attention to my problems
[04:44] <failmaster> thank you dudes
[04:45] <reazem> gotta go, GL.
[04:47] <failmaster> hey guys, i have a problem switching luks passphrase authorization to key file for root fs on 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/238163/comments/18 anyone?
[04:48] <jiltdil> Any one has done solaris 11 system admin certification?
[04:50] <albern123> hey, I have a slave drive which I used for a windows system, ubuntu can't recognise any of its partitions because the drive was GPT partitioned. How do fix this?
[04:51] <aleksey2013> ask for help. you need to go to my PC and set it up to check and remove any extra bags ... video player band in the video is correct .. who can go write + + + +
[04:51] <researcher123> I have 13.04 installed on entire hard disk.How can I install Windows XP alongside?
[04:52] <dr_willis> resize the partitions. put a ntgs at the front
[04:52] <wilee-nilee> albern123, You planning on installing there, and if so how are you going to boot?
[04:52] <dr_willis> use gparted. and learn how to restore grub
[04:52] <researcher123> dr_willis: how do i do this?
[04:52] <xmetal> true
[04:52] <xmetal> i'd download (great tool) "SuperGrub"
[04:53] <dr_willis> ....  use gparted
[04:53] <dr_willis> !fixgrub
[04:53] <xmetal> (or i think there is one on the same site "Recaulux" (i know the spelling is off)
[04:53] <researcher123> dr_willis: how to put ntgs at front?
[04:53] <xmetal> or your could just follow ubott's url
[04:53] <xmetal> :)
[04:53] <holstein> aleksey2013: im not following the issue
[04:53] <dr_willis> researcher123:  with gparted
[04:54] <researcher123> dr_willis: thanks.Im trying.But will it make dual boot possible then by default?
[04:54] <dr_willis> resize linux. shrink it.. put new partition at front
[04:54] <dr_willis> install windows.. fix grub
[04:55]  * xmetal agree's with dr_willis
[04:55] <dr_willis> get that boot-repair live cd first. to make it easier
[04:56] <researcher123> dr_willis: ok.
[04:56] <dr_willis> gparted live cd is worth having also
[04:56] <albern123> wilee-nilee, no, i use the drive for data only, it was on my windows 8 pc but i moved it to my ubuntu pc
[04:56] <researcher123> dr_willis: where can I get gparted live cd?
[04:56] <aleksey2013> ubuntu 13.4
[04:57] <Dm> isn't gparted an application you can download on a live cd?
[04:57] <wilee-nilee> albern123, So the drive is unallocated as of now, there can be gpt remnants even then that cause problems is this the case here?
[04:57] <xmetal> i have to say i haven't used Retaux, though its suppose to do more thatn "Super Grub" i think
[04:58] <jiltdil> suppose i want to make sure that  software packages on   my system  are up to date or not without  installing any updates, then which command i have to  use      pkg list -u    or pkg info -r "*"  or pkg update –nv ‘*’   please help i am confused this is on solaris
[04:59] <albern123> wilee-nilee, no, i'm just trying to view the data on my ubuntu pc, i don't want to wipe it or anything, gparted says it is unallocated though
[04:59] <dr_willis> jiltdil:  solaris is not linux
[04:59] <jiltdil> dr_willis, yes, but i want to know this answer if  you may help :)
[05:00] <wilee-nilee> albern123, So whats the final goal here?
[05:00] <dr_willis> jiltdil: ask a solaris channel
[05:00] <dr_willis> !alis
[05:00] <jiltdil> dr_willis,  there are very less people and no one is responding
[05:01] <jiltdil> dr_willis, Thanks anyway :)
[05:01] <albern123> wilee-nilee, being able to mount the hdd as a secondary drive without losing the data that is on the drive

[05:02] <aleksey2013> transparent band on the video's kind of like mixing
[05:02] <wilee-nilee> albern123, Not sure to be honest, I would not want any gpt myself if not needed.
[05:02] <aleksey2013> asked for help from Russian banks were given for the question
[05:03] <xmetal> i repeat my question
[05:03]  * xmetal scratches head
[05:03] <albern123> wilee-nilee, is it possible to convert it to MBR and mount it without loosing data?
[05:04] <dr_willis> convert gpt to mbr? not sure thats possible
[05:05] <wilee-nilee> albern123, Not sure the unallocated is a red flag to me, however maybe this is normal in this circumstance the way the HD is setup, just not an area I can really help in.
[05:05] <researcher123> My browser n applications open too slowly n often hang.Im on 13.04.The problem appearing since a fortnight.It was ok before
[05:05] <albern123> wilee-nilee, ok thanks then, i'll keep looking
[05:05] <hyper_ch> hmmm, applying latest updates on 13.04 makes mysql server not working anymore
[05:06] <johnny_fly> researcher try to install preload
[05:07] <hyper_ch> mysql server problems:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5965042/
[05:07] <researcher123> johnny_fly: where do I get that
[05:07] <johnny_fly> synaptic orr console
[05:07] <johnny_fly> apt-get instal preload
[05:08] <researcher123> ok.thanks
[05:08] <johnny_fly> with sudo ofcourse
[05:09] <wilee-nilee> and two l's in install
[05:11] <albern123> ok i installed gdisk and opened the drive with it, and a bunch of errors came up: Invalid main GPT header but vailid backup, regenerating main header from backup! Caution! After loading partitions, the CRC doesnt check out! One or more CRCs don't match you should repair the disk!
[05:11] <albern123> how do I repair the disk?
[05:11] <xmetal> oops .. Rescatux is what i was talking about before
[05:14] <wilee-nilee> albern123, Did this start with the HD running fine with windows?
[05:15] <santhosh> hai
[05:15] <johnny_fly> hi
[05:15] <johnny_fly> :p
[05:17] <albern123> wilee-nilee, yes it did, the verify command in gdisk recommends that i load a backup partition table from the disk
[05:18] <wilee-nilee> albern123, Cool, just checking, sometimes key info is left out.
[05:18] <johnny_fly_SRB> albern123 you change something on disk after ubuntu install?
[05:19] <failmaster> hey guys, i have a problem switching luks passphrase authorization to key file for root fs on 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/238163/comments/18 anyone?
[05:20] <albern123> johnny_fly_SRB, not that i know of, unplugged the drive for install, plugged back in afterwards
[05:20] <aleksey2013> who is with the video card  ?  nvidia 650 ti  help
[05:22] <johnny_fly_SRB> albern123 make fresh instal with plugged disk and that will fix your problem - but that is final solution
[05:25] <albern123> johnny_fly_SRB, what do you mean by final solution?
[05:25] <wilee-nilee> johnny_fly_SRB, So your saying that reinstalling ubuntu is going to make this secondary HD with a gpt setup showing as unallocated in gparted, magically appear?
[05:25] <johnny_fly_SRB> yap i thing that
[05:26] <wilee-nilee> hardly that is got to be wrong
[05:26] <roots47> Hey everyone.  I'm in a bit of a crunch.  I overrode my windows 7 install with ubuntu, and now my computer isn't recognizing internet, neither wired or wireless
[05:26] <wilee-nilee> johnny_fly_SRB, exsplain how that is going to work.
[05:26] <johnny_fly_SRB> its can be:(
[05:26] <roots47> Any ideas how I could solve this?
[05:27] <wilee-nilee> roots47, This all internal hardware?
[05:27] <santhosh> which version ubuntu u unstalled
[05:27] <xmetal> ouch
[05:27] <roots47> wilee-nilee: yes, all internal
[05:27] <roots47> santhosh: 13.04
[05:27] <johnny_fly_SRB> When i have any big problem with my ubuntu i reinstall him and ubuntu fix all problem by himself
[05:28] <santhosh> just reinstall it
[05:28] <roots47> johnny_fly_SRB: Ok I'll give that a try
[05:28] <wilee-nilee> roots47, Run lspci in the ubuntu terminal and identify the ethernet and wifi info, you will have to download some drivers it sounds like on another computer, if you just don't have a switch off.
[05:28] <santhosh> did u get internet on windoes 7
[05:28] <roots47> santhosh: yes
[05:29] <santhosh> just check "lspci" it would detect your ports or not
[05:30] <roots47> wilee-nilee: BroadCom Corporation BCM43228 802.11a/b/g/n for my network and Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection
[05:30] <wilee-nilee> johnny_fly_SRB, YOU are just saying the same thing that is not helping in any way.
[05:30] <santhosh> i think it isd better to doownload the network drivers or reinstall

[05:33] <wilee-nilee> roots47, This would be if you had internet access I believe to download them, however it is in the software center-edit-software sources last tab on the right.
[05:34] <Beed> so boring
[05:35] <johnny_fly_SRB> wilee-nilee how to make big letters in xchat?

[05:41] <wilee-nilee> yeah, sounds like you are on the right track though.
[05:41] <roots47> wilee-nilee: do you know how to 'browse the media' assuming my media is a usb drive?

[05:43] <sarthor> wilee-nilee, I tried that but failed. some commands not working on 13.04 that is for 10.04.

[05:44] <holstein> Chris262: can you ping the gateway?
[05:45] <roots47> wilee-nilee: this guide doesn't seem to have any information on doing the install via USB media... only references cd apparently
[05:46] <wilee-nilee> roots47, the usb has the same files, not sure of any real answer though myself.
[05:47] <Chris262> how do i find the gateway?
[05:47] <Chris262> kinda backwards since i am on 2 different comps that are connected to 2 different routers
[05:47] <gr33n7007h> Chris262, route -n
[05:48] <Chris262> getting <IP_ADDRESS> for gateway and genmask of <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:48] <Chris262> for some reason my iface is set up vibro0?
[05:48] <Chris262> shouldn't that be eth0 or eht1?
[05:49] <Chris262> eith1* since I have 2 10/100 ports
[05:49] <roots47> Does anyone know how to navigate usb media on ubuntu?
[05:49] <holstein> roots47: same as anything else, really
[05:49] <gr33n7007h> yeah should be

[05:54] <gr33n7007h> Chris262, sudo
[05:54] <santhosh> http://linuxg.net/install-mozilla-firefox-18-0-1-on-ubuntu-12-04-ubuntu-12-10-linux-mint-13-and-linux-mint-14/     follow this<sam__>
[05:54] <sam__> I really need to know how to do the other way. That can help me in my contibution to OSS too.
[05:54] <roots47> wilee-nilee: Guess what?
[05:55] <failmasterfailed> sam__, https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-next and i guess you have to find some references on how icons and menus in your DE being created after packages installation
[05:55] <Chris262> gr33n7007h: just did that and got "Warning: unknown mime-type for "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" --using "application/octet-stream"
[05:55] <holstein> sam__: there can be PPA's and other unsupported ways to add FF that may be easier
[05:55] <Chris262> gr33n7007h: then: "Error: no "edit" mail cap rules found for the "application/octet-stream"
[05:56] <roots47> wilee-nilee: IT RECOGNIZES MY WIRELESS. Thank you man.  I can now participate in my daily work routine tomorrow.
[05:56] <gr33n7007h> Chris262, Mmmmm...
[05:56] <euxneks> howdy, a lot of my applications, when I'm running in unity, look like they are still using the window decorations from kde - for instance, the buttons, scrollbars, checkboxes, tabs, etc.
[05:56] <euxneks> I don't want this.
[05:57] <failmasterfailed> root_, atheros chipset gets the better support for linux
[05:57] <failmasterfailed> oops
[05:57] <failmasterfailed> roots47, atheros chipset gets the better support for linux
[05:57] <Chris262> that is what i say..
[05:57] <roots47> failmasterfailed: good to know
[05:58]  * Gavos coughs. "Is this the big kid's table?"
[05:59] <sam__> unfailedagain: thanx. But I dont want a one click installation by adding a new repo. Consider I am building from sources.
[05:59] <Gavos> Jiminy Christmas. This channel is SO. VERY. LARGE.
[06:00] <holstein> sam__: the ppa would be the easiest.. both are not officially supported
[06:00] <Gavos> Would you rather I just said hi?
[06:00] <sam__> holstein: *repeat* I am building from sources.
[06:01] <kostkon> sam__: the daily?
[06:01] <holstein> sam__: correct.. the ppa *and* that are not officially supported.. remove the versions you have added.. update the verison from the official repos
[06:01] <unfailedagain> sam__, you're messing with creating menu/desktop entry/icon procedures, get closer to your current DE, this is for gnome https://developer.gnome.org/integration-guide/stable/desktop-files.html.en
[06:02] <holstein> sam__: i ran that simulator in FF in 12.04, with the updated version in the repo
[06:02] <kostkon> sam__: which version do you really want
[06:02] <icelite> Why does xchat need updates ?
[06:02] <unfailedagain> he wants to build it from sources dudes, what is it unclear lol
[06:02] <sam__> kostkon: any version > 20.0
[06:02] <sam__> and I have the sources
[06:02] <unfailedagain> he doesn't want ppa, he just wants to build it and have an icon
[06:03] <kostkon> sam__: the repos version is 23.........
[06:03] <kostkon> ...
[06:03] <unfailedagain> but fails to create one
[06:03] <unfailedagain> oh god it's not a surprise i can't get support for myself
[06:03] <holstein> unfailedagain: and the user may.. what is unclear is that the version built from source is not supported.. and the repo version supported the functionality the user seeks
[06:03] <unfailedagain> holstein, how comes that something built from source is not supported?
[06:03] <johnny_fly_SRB> ima li koga?
[06:04] <goddard> can some one look at this for me? http://askubuntu.com/questions/327249/2-amd-7950s-do-not-work-in-crossfire-mode
[06:04] <unfailedagain> good luck with that statement because he wants and he does build it from source and it works
[06:04] <holstein> unfailedagain: because, its the responsibility of the maintainer, at that point..
[06:04] <unfailedagain> and more, it is expected to work
[06:04] <unfailedagain> holstein, nothing stops anyone to build it from source, there are even cozy deb-srcs
[06:05] <unfailedagain> and that's good when someone does have such wish, good for whole community
[06:05] <holstein> unfailedagain: and im not trying to stop anyone from anything
[06:05] <dshap> anyone know why an upstart script might fail if it's just executing one command and that command otherwise works fine?  http://pastebin.com/cbqFcAv6
[06:05] <unfailedagain> no, until you start saying that " version built from source is not supported.."
[06:05] <holstein> unfailedagain: the fact is.. its not in the repos, and not our responsibility.. we cant control all the variables.. its not OT to ask for help here
[06:06] <unfailedagain> holstein, are you maintainer?
[06:06] <holstein> unfailedagain: do you hae a support question, friend?
[06:06] <goddard> ?
[06:06] <holstein> unfailedagain: otherwise, we can argue elsewhere.. in teh OT channel for example
[06:06] <unfailedagain> i have one, holstein i have a problem switching luks passphrase authorization to key file for root fs on 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/238163/comments/18 anyone
[06:06] <goddard> Anyone running AMD GPU in crossfire?
[06:08] <goddard> AMD 7950's are popular cards does anyone else have one?
[06:08] <reisio> if they're popular, someone else probably has
[06:08] <reisio> also even if they're not popular
[06:08] <reisio> big ole world
[06:11] <sam__> thanks guys. I think I got it. gotta restart.
[06:11] <roots47> Hmm, now that everything is up and running.  Any opinions on gnome 3 vs unity?
[06:11] <unfailedagain> both sux?
[06:11] <goddard> gnome3 is better but unity still beats it because of how windows are maximized
[06:11] <goddard> it is really the best design in that regard
[06:12] <goddard> i think the only DE that can copy it is KDE
[06:12] <holstein> roots47: try unity live. you can probably install gnome liv as well.. i use a desktop that doenst require 3d
[06:13] <goddard> holstein: why?
[06:13] <goddard> old system?
[06:13] <holstein> goddard: i choose to.. i dont need 3d on the desktop
[06:13] <goddard> holstein: why not?
[06:14] <holstein> goddard: i dont need it.. so i dont have it
[06:14] <goddard> its pretty nice and if you dont have an old system it works great
[06:14] <iceroot_> goddard: and you can do all tasks without 3d support, so why using 3d then?
[06:15] <goddard> Visual pleasure
[06:15] <iceroot_> goddard: and if he likes to use something without 3d support (like i do too) why telling him to use 3d?
[06:15] <dshap> hey all - is this an appropriate place to ask questions about upstart scripts? im trying to figure out why mine is failing to start but not sure what to do next
[06:15] <goddard> iceroot_: i didn't i just wanted to know his reason haha
[06:15] <iceroot_> goddard: some users prefer visual highlights, others not
[06:15] <goddard> iceroot_: i know that but i wanted to know his reason
[06:15] <unfailedagain> does mutter requires 3d?
[06:16] <goddard> iceroot_: some people just say that because they have old hardware
[06:16] <iceroot_> goddard: i normally just something which is able to show and manage the windows from the programs, close them, move them, thats all
[06:16] <holstein> unfailedagain: last i checked on it, it didnt.. but its been a while i had it running
[06:16] <goddard> others like flat plan desktops
[06:17] <goddard> at some point the reason to optimize by removing 3d effects and what not becomes pointless if that is the reason
[06:18] <iceroot_> goddard: sure and it is good that there are different user which prefer different systems and the great hting is, you have the choice :)
[06:18] <reisio> if 3d effects help your brain interface with your UI better, making you more efficient, nice
[06:18] <reisio> IMO that is rarely the case :p
[06:18] <holstein> goddard: i didnt "remove" them.. i just started with something that better suits my needs and preferences.. nothing wrong with whizzz-bang
[06:18] <iceroot_> goddard: 1. its depening on your graphic card, for example you need non-free software for specific cards to have good 3d support
[06:18] <reisio> unless your brain is quite shallow :)
[06:19] <iceroot_> goddard: but i guess this discussion is offtopic, it should be moved to #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:19] <goddard> iceroot_: do you have a good GPU?
[06:20] <holstein> goddard: "good" is a matter of opinion.. but, please continue in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:20] <rjknight1> anyone here successfully configured DNS server on ubuntu server? May i ask for your tutorial sites if you have one? thanks.
[06:20] <holstein> !dns
[06:20] <iceroot_> goddard: i have the best gpu you can have, because the drivers are open-source
[06:20] <iceroot_> goddard: i dont care about 3d power, i need a system to work with, so i am fine with my intel card
[06:21] <jemark> iceroot_: Intel?
[06:21] <iceroot_> goddard: and i dont need fancy effects when i move a window or something like that
[06:21] <holstein> intel hardware is typically supported well by the kernel "out of the box", jemark
[06:21] <iceroot_> holstein: yes
[06:22] <jemark> holstein: i know
[06:22] <unfailedagain> any kinds of effects don't help brain to be efficient, it's all about design, while effects bring esthetical joy
[06:22] <rjknight1> is the primary and secondary master of DNS server to installed on different pc?
[06:22] <rjknight1> *to be
[06:22] <iceroot_> rjknight1: normally yes, because it is a backup system
[06:22] <goddard> holstein: this is on topic
[06:22] <holstein> rjknight1: you'll usually see a few.. opendns has 2 addresses, and googleDNS
[06:22] <goddard> iceroot_: i am asking because i was wondering if you had AMD
[06:23] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu-server|rjknight
[06:23] <iceroot_> goddard: no, i dont have an amd card at all
[06:23] <goddard> iceroot_: I like open source its just i cant play games with them
[06:23] <goddard> ok
[06:23] <iceroot_> goddard: some systems with intel and one with optimus
[06:23] <goddard> iceroot_: intel GPU is best for open source right?
[06:23] <iceroot_> goddard: yes
[06:24] <babinlonston> want to install ip messenger for ubuntu 12.04 how to install it
[06:24] <iceroot_> goddard: you can use all features with open-source drivers. with nvidia/amd you cant use all features with free software
[06:24] <cfhowlett> goddard, maybe not "best" but it's well supported
[06:24] <jemark> iceroot_: I have an onboard HD3000 in this laptop :)
[06:24] <iceroot_> jemark: guess i have the same card, i dont care about the name. its working so i am fine
[06:24] <rjknight1> thanks... i'll read it again..
[06:25] <goddard> cfhowlett: i guess i mean the drivers are the offical drivers
[06:25] <Chris262> trying to change my iface from virbr0 to eth0 or eth1, but when I use "sudo edit '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persisent-net.rules" i get a unknown mime-type using "application/octet-stream"
[06:25] <jemark> iceroot_: indeed
[06:25] <Chris262> anyway to get around this… i have not network access period
[06:25] <cfhowlett> goddard, right
[06:25] <Chris262> gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:25] <holstein> goddard: "best" is a matter of opinion, and can dependon use case and hardware
[06:25] <roots47> Umm, hmm... for some reason when I'm trying to edit a file in vi, my arrow keys are producing random capital letters, I did a google search and see that it requires a :set nocompatible and recommended setting this in my vimconfig... I tried adding the line "set nocompatible" to the config in my /usr/share/vim folder to no avail. Any ideas?
[06:26] <goddard> I'm surprised with all the talk in Ubuntu about games we don't have more people that have tested hire end GPUs in multi-GPU setups
[06:26] <iceroot_> roots47: that is normal
[06:26] <goddard> higher
[06:26] <iceroot_> roots47: vi does not support the arrow keys, you want to use vim instead
[06:26] <iceroot_> roots47: and you have to install vim, because its not installed by default. sudo apt-get install vim
[06:27] <goddard> roots47: or just use nano
[06:27] <roots47> Ah ok, i'm installing vim now
[06:28] <cfhowlett> !hardware|goddard, there are hardware testing teams in ubuntu
[06:29] <rjknight1> helo again. When logging in with the user account in ldap from ubuntu desktop client, is the user be a sudoer or not?
[06:29] <unfailedagain> hey guys, i have a problem switching luks passphrase authorization to key file for root fs on 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/238163/comments/18 anyone?
[06:29] <iceroot_> rjknight1: depending on your config
[06:31] <brahmana> Is there a way for me to block out access to an entire domain from my machine
[06:31] <brahmana> ?
[06:31] <OnkelTem> Hi all. In Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome 3 I can't maximize gnome-terminal window anymore  by Alt-F10. It just prints in terminal: "3~". Any ideas?
[06:31] <goddard> cfhowlett: the hardware testing process is a pain
[06:31] <goddard> cfhowlett: they need a new system
[06:32] <cfhowlett> !dns|brahmana, yes you can do that via DNS
[06:32] <brahmana> Ex : I want to block access to some.domain.com from my machine. Is /etc/hosts.deny the right place for this?
[06:32] <goddard> ya
[06:32] <cfhowlett> brahmana, /editing hosts would also work.  perhaps ask in #ubuntu-server   ?
[06:33] <brahmana> cfhowlett: What was your suggestion with DNS?
[06:33] <rjknight1> @iceroot how do we know if our config is that the user is a sudoer or not?
[06:33] <brahmana> cfhowlett: Btw, this is for my laptop, running Ubuntu desktop.
[06:33] <cfhowlett> brahmana, I've never done the DNS route, but I have seen the /host editing method.
[06:33] <iceroot_> rjknight1: so you mean when you authenticate against slapd?
[06:34] <rjknight1> pam
[06:34] <brahmana> cfhowlett: Ok, what is the host editing method?
[06:34] <iceroot_> rjknight1: and pam is using ldap as backend and not /etc/passwd / shadow
[06:34] <cfhowlett> brahmana, I'm not a sys admin and have no experience running a server ...
[06:35] <brahmana> cfhowlett: Ok, cool. Np.
[06:39] <rjknight1> @iceroot I used this guide, http://www.unixmen.com/setup-samba-domain-controller-with-openldap-backend-in-ubuntu-13-04/ and it works. but how do we know that the user login to the ubuntu desktop is sudoer or not bae on the guide?
[06:39] <rjknight1> *base
[06:40] <iceroot_> rjknight1: you will have to look on his groups
[06:40] <iceroot_> rjknight1: getent group
[06:43] <rjknight1> @iceroot_: Domain Admins:*:512:root Domain Users:*:513: Domain Guests:*:514: Domain Computers:*:515: Administrators:*:544: Account Operators:*:548: Print Operators:*:550: Backup Operators:*:551: Replicators:*:552:
[06:44] <rjknight1> @iceroot_ are those belong to sudoer?
[06:45] <iceroot_> rjknight1: no
[06:46] <iceroot_> rjknight1: dont have ubuntu here at the moment but the group should be "sudoers" or "admin"
[06:46] <iceroot_> rjknight1: the groups you will get are normally special domain-users
[06:47] <goddard> sudo
[06:47] <manowar3> Is there a Firefox plugin that saves the zoom % for each website?
[06:48] <iceroot_> manowar3: that is the default
[06:48] <goddard> ya thats default for me
[06:48] <manowar3> iceroot_, hmm... too much zoom plugins for me then. I'll try that now thx
[06:49] <Notex> Hello.
[06:49] <rjknight1> @iceroot_ okay the user that i created is not in the sudoer but how we can make some of our user be a sudoer?
[06:49] <cfhowlett> Notex, greetings
[06:52] <basiclaser> i have a really old machine that needs an OS, it has <128 ram. Any OS suggestions?
[06:52] <iceroot_> rjknight1: ad them to the group
[06:53] <iceroot_> basiclaser: lubuntu would be the only ubuntu system
[06:53] <cfhowlett> bashy, xubuntu and lubuntu are optimized for older/slower machines.
[06:53] <reisio> well, their preinstalled apps are
[06:53] <zaggynl> does anyone know what " start -q anacron || :" does?
[06:54] <reisio> zaggynl: is that in an upstart script or something?
[06:54] <auronandace> basiclaser: anything below 512mb ram is going to crawl with any desktop version of ubuntu
[06:54] <reisio> zaggynl: it probably means start 'anacron' quietly, and if it fails do what comes after
[06:54] <euxneks> howdy, the solution to my previous problem was to delete the gtk-3.0 dir under .config and also remove the oxygen-gtk theme in /usr/share/themes
[06:54] <zaggynl> ah
[06:54] <rjknight1> @iceroot_ : a group like domain admin?
[06:54] <zaggynl> thanks
[06:54] <rjknight1> @iceroot_ or as a special user?
[06:55] <tones> will older versions of ubuntu work quicker on older hardware?
[06:55] <reisio> tones: not particularly
[06:56] <cfhowlett> tones, better off to try lubuntu and/or xubuntu ...
[06:56] <auronandace> tones: most likely yes, but they are unsupported
[06:56] <euxneks> I have another issue though, that's that unity is not starting properly on login. After login, if I can issue the command "unity --replace" (I happen to have synapse installed) it works fine.
[06:57] <euxneks> are there any logs where unity will put errors that happen?
[06:58] <reisio> maybe your session isn't being saved
[06:58] <euxneks> what would cause that?
[07:00] <reisio> euxneks: various things
[07:01] <rjknight1> @iceroot_ anyway thanks :) I will configure this out... till then.
[07:01] <rjknight1> *figure
[07:01] <euxneks> reisio, can you point me in a direction to try to find out a solution?
[07:02] <basiclaser>  auronandace: ok thanks, what would you suggest in place of lubuntu?
[07:02] <reisio> euxneks: if you made a new, extra user and logged in and it worked fine with that user, then that would suggest some simple corruption/misconfiguration of config files in your original user's ~/
[07:02] <euxneks> is there a command with apt-get which is similar to "yum provides" ?
[07:02] <euxneks> ah, reisio, good idea
[07:03] <reisio> euxneks: apt-file
[07:03] <auronandace> basiclaser: on that machine you'd only get away with a non-gui ubuntu i would have thought (non-ubuntu suggestions can be found in ##linux)
[07:04] <basiclaser> auronandace: ok thanks. I can never seem to comment in linux, can't work out the registration. #IRCnoob
[07:04] <euxneks> reisio, thanks
[07:05] <auronandace> !register | basiclaser
[07:07] <seekwill> Hello! With Ubuntu 13.04, I can connect my 3g wireless card and it "just works". What program does this magic?
[07:09] <auronandace> seekwill: since you're talking about hardware then it would be a driver in the linux kernel
[07:09] <greyhatpython> seekwill it's the Linux Kernel! not magic.
[07:11] <seekwill> Sorry, I meant that connects with the 3g service. Is it "Network Manager"? Is there some plugin?
[07:12] <seekwill> I'm asking because I'm testing this modem on a Raspberry Pi (with only Debian)
[07:12] <seekwill> Wondering if it's Ubuntu magic or not
[07:12] <unfailedagain> seednode, modemmanager?
[07:12] <unfailedagain> oops sorry
[07:13] <unfailedagain> seekwill, modemmanager?
[07:13] <seekwill> Ah. I will look into that. That looks promising!
[07:24] <antonio_> ciao
[07:26] <fetoega> Is there any distro of ubuntu that comes with nvidia 325 as default?
[07:27] <somsip> !info nvidia-current
[07:27] <himanshu_linux> hi
[07:27] <somsip> fetoega: you could try #ubuntu+1 for details on 13.10
[07:28] <fetoega> Someguy123: i do not think they have it by default either. I think it is an older version.
[07:28] <somsip> !info nvidia-current saucy
[07:28] <somsip> fetoega: yep - looks the same
[07:28] <fetoega> when i install from edgers i get agpgart errors and a black screen.
[07:28] <HypnotiX> any web developer here ?
[07:29] <somsip> fetoega: PPAs can be troublesome which is why they are not officially supported.
[07:29] <somsip> HypnotiX: why?
[07:29] <fetoega> i know. But the drivers in the official repos does not support newer cards
[07:29] <HypnotiX> i have some problems with compass and yeoman
[07:29] <somsip> HypnotiX: neither or which seem to be ubuntu issues. This is ubuntu support channel
[07:30] <HypnotiX> well it has to do with linux :)
[07:30] <HypnotiX> and im on ubuntu so i donno where else to ask
[07:30] <HypnotiX> i get the following error when i try to run a command
[07:30] <HypnotiX> Error: EACCES, permission denied '/home/clslice/.config/configstore/update-notifier-yo.yml'
[07:30] <HypnotiX> You don't have access to this file.
[07:31] <somsip> HypnotiX: no, really. It's off topic. Please find somewhere more appropraite
[07:31] <somsip> HypnotiX: #yeoman is live according tot he suport page
[07:32] <HypnotiX> yeah just not active :(
[07:45] <mafsi> hi, can anyone help me with the hotspot i've created? i cant see it with any device, although is running.
[07:45] <albern123> hey does anyone know how to mount a drive which is GPT partitioned?
[07:45] <killer> hey
[07:46] <dr_willis> albern123: same as any other drive albern123
[07:46] <dr_willis> !mount
[07:46] <killer> I have a script that i want to be run from terminal (as a terminal command) and make it available for all users(so not ~/.bashrc)
[07:47] <dr_willis> killer:  put it in /bin  or /usr/bin
[07:48] <albern123> dr_willis, when I look at the drive in GParted there are two partitions, when i look at the drive in fdisk or disk utility it only shows one partition
[07:48] <dr_willis> fdisk is not set ti gandle gpt i think.
[07:49] <dr_willis> whar does    sudo blkid     show
[07:49] <albern123> /dev/sdb1: UUID="25a66b6f-1ad2-42ad-8134-21e8318eab8b" TYPE="ext4"
[07:50] <albern123> but the drive i want to mount is /dev/sda
[07:50] <dr_willis> try mounting sdb1 then
[07:50] <dr_willis> sda should be shown on another line if its detected
[07:50] <dr_willis> does dmesg mention sda?
[07:51] <dr_willis> is this an external usb? or internal hd?
[07:51] <killer> dr_willis: i copied killer.sh to /bin but still not accessible as command
[07:52] <albern123> an internal hd
[07:52] <dr_willis> killer:  you made it executable?
[07:52] <dr_willis> try the full path to the script
[07:53] <Lope> okay I thought I completely understood permissions but now I've hit a dead end. on my dev PC (where I need write access from PHP) /var/www/ has 770 permissions is owned by bob:www-data. Apache can pull up the index.php page, no problem. then I created a group called web-users and added www-data to the web-users group. Then I chgrp'd -R the /var/www/ dir to web-users and when I do that apache gets permission denied. any ideas?
[07:54] <killer> dr_willis: full path works but i don't want to put full path everytime
[07:55] <dr_willis_> log out and back in.  the  bash PATh cache is not rerfreshed yet
[07:55] <dr_willis_> or just open a new shell
[07:56] <Dr_Willis> where  exactly did you copy it to?
[07:58] <albern123> gparted says that ntfsprogs is missing
[07:58] <Lope> okay just needed to restart apache2
[07:59] <ikonia> Lope: every time you change a users groups, you need to restart the shell that user is running so it re-refresh it's status in a new shell

[08:10] <bartje> hi all, I've got here a failed update of mysql, now it isn't working anymore of course.. don't know what went wrong here..
[08:11] <ikonia> bartje: define "failed update" and define "not working"
[08:11] <pinqvin> is there any ways to get sd-card reader to work in toshiba portege 150r?
[08:11] <ikonia> pinqvin: depends on if the hardware is supported
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> some build in card readers in some laptops can be picky and a problem
[08:12] <bartje> ikonia: not working is quite easy to define... not working.. and failed: error processing mysql-server (--configure) dependency problem - unconfigured
[08:12] <bartje> I tried purging, reïnstalling..
[08:12] <ikonia> bartje ok well you want to give smart answers, I don't want to help
[08:13] <rtfmdude> is it necessary to have a keyscript option in order to use luks authorization based on a key file?
[08:13] <bartje> ikonia: not working is not working, what's so difficult about hat definition?
[08:13] <ikonia> bartje: "not working" could mean anything, not starting, can't login, can't connect, dropping connection, etc, but you want to be smart with "not working" - bye
[08:13] <ikonia> bartje: in that case "fix it"
[08:13] <pinqvin> ikonia: i found in the web that toshiba doesn't have drivers for linux
[08:13] <pinqvin> so is there some
[08:13] <bartje> bad day I guess
[08:14] <ikonia> bartje: not for me, I can fix it
[08:14] <ikonia> pinqvin: the SD card reader is probably not made by toshiba, so you need to find out who makes it, then we can look at that device's support in linux
[08:14] <rtfmdude> is it necessary to have a keyscript option in order to use luks authorization based on a key file for drive with mount point on / (root fs)?
[08:14] <pinqvin> if it is not supported is there something which i would try?
[08:15] <ikonia> pinqvin: if it's not supported, no , it's a dead end
[08:15] <ikonia> pinqvin: if there is support/limited support we can work it through, but you need to know the make/model before we can work taht out
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> determins the card readers chipset pinqvin  how have you 'proven' its not supported?
[08:15] <bartje> next error on attempt to reïnstall : E: internal Error, No file name for mysql-server-5.5:amd64 ..
[08:16] <EZRAK> anyone knows about backtrack5
[08:16] <EZRAK> ?
[08:16] <ikonia> EZRAK: the people in #backtrack-linux do, but it's EOL and offtopic here
[08:16] <ActionParsnip> EZRAK: ask in #backtrack-linux
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> EZRAK:  it has its own suipport channels
[08:18] <pinqvin> yea i'm not sure about support but i searched via google
[08:18] <pinqvin> so where i could search the model of the reader? google?
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> pinqvin:  staert aith 'lspci' output
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> start with..
[08:19] <EZRAK> no one is online
[08:20] <pinqvin> i run out of battery soon ... so i don't know when my laptop shuts down
[08:20] <ikonia> EZRAK: read the topic in their channel - it's dead
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> EZRAK:  thats not really our problem. its not ubuntu.  try the  backtrack web site for alternaivces
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> why do you even think you need backtrack
[08:21] <EZRAK> thanks
[08:23] <pinqvin> http://pastebin.com/npwQHFNz here is output of the command
[08:25] <pinqvin> so the sd reader is:Toshiba America Info Systems SD TypA Controller (rev 03)
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> that  would be my guess,, or one of the other devices that are   not the wifi, or other known devices. ;)
[08:26] <pinqvin> what you mean?
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> eliminate the ones that  are obviously NOT  a card reader.,
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> that leaves like 3 items
[08:29] <pinqvin> yea there is three in that lis which could be

[09:01] <eos> hi everybody! anyone who knows how to detected the highest bit per sample I can get from my sound card on ubuntu?
[09:02] <reisio> tgary: not likely anything to do with software (Linux)
[09:03] <Shadow}}> Never mind, I got it.
[09:03] <tgary> reisio: Does not need to turn off USB devices, to remain in a special power state? (Like for ethernet off is no power, but in higher power states it can listen for wake-on-lan packets.) ?
[09:04] <edge731> hello all!, i need to virtualize a raspberry soft-float debian on virtualbox
[09:04] <eos> I found a way of detecting the maximu sampling rate, and it worked, but do not seem to be able to detect the maximu bit depth
[09:04] <edge731> can somebody help me ?
[09:04] <reisio> tgary: huh?
[09:05] <histo> edge731: /j #virtualbox
[09:05] <Dozy> edge731: you want to virtualise raspbain with the pi's hardware on your pc?
[09:05] <histo> edge731: or vbox whatever their channel is
[09:05] <reisio> I don't think VirtualBox does ARM
[09:05] <wilee-nilee> #vbox
[09:05] <reisio> kvm would
[09:06] <edge731> well, there is a .img file in raspberry.org dowloads that says it´s " soft-float ABI" for usage with virtualbox....
[09:07] <tgary> reisio: I'm not a hardware expert, but think there is similar for USBs too: If you power off your computer, and USB keyboard will not wake up the computer, because there is no power for the HUBs. But when I suspend my machine, it can wake up for a key press on an USB keyboard.
[09:07] <edge731> well im not whure wy i posted it here, sorry ! XD
[09:07] <edge731> im gonna look for virtualbox channel
[09:07] <Dozy> edge731: no problem ^_^

[09:09] <edge731> thanks for the tips!, :D
[09:10] <tgary> reisio: Yeah, but I checked, and when I plugged in the device (while the machine was powered off), my USB 3.0 did not charge the device.
[09:10] <histo> tgary: shutdown with the device plugged in
[09:10] <reisio> tgary: and when it was turned on it did?
[09:12] <lorgan> hey could anyone help me installing ubuntu from a bootable usb? After an attempt at installing it goes straight to win 7 (no grub or other bootloader shows up) and booting with the usb plugged in gives this: http://files.myfrogbag.com/oij151/HPIM1603.JPG
[09:12] <Dr_Willis> !fixgrub
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> sounds like grub installed to the usb. not the hd and got confused
[09:14] <rtfmdude> is it necessary to have a keyscript option in order to use luks authorization based on a key file for drive with mount point on / (root fs)?
[09:15] <tgary> histo, reisio: When it was turned on, it charged. Now I tried histo's suggestion, but when the machine is turned off, the charging is stopped.
[09:15] <lorgan> I also found this thead which seems to be a similar problem (http://askubuntu.com/questions/41930/kernel-panic-not-syncing-vfs-unable-to-mount-root-fs-on-unknown-block0-0) but the second command gives "special device /dev/sdax does not exist"
[09:16] <Dr_Willis> lorgan:  you are not using   'sdax' are you?
[09:16] <Dr_Willis> its an example 'device'  use the proper one for your system
[09:17] <lorgan> i just entered the command from the thread (sudo mount /dev/sdax /mnt) but i actually don't know what it's supposed to do..
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> lorgan:  ithats an INCORRECT command
[09:17] <Dusya> Hi people
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> as i said.. use your device. not 'sdax'
[09:17] <Orpheon> lorgan, he means use sda1 or sda2 etc...
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> lorgan:  i suggest going and getting that boot-repair livce cd and use it to fix grub instead
[09:18] <pinqvin> boot repair is easy and fast way to repair grup
[09:19] <Orpheon> boot-repair the program?
[09:19] <histo> tgary: it may only charge in suspend mode, where do you think linux or ubuntu has anything to do with when your machine is off?

[09:25] <Shadow}}> Anyone here know how to set-up OpenVPN? I could really use some help with the *vars
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> Shadow}}:  the 'digital ocean' vpn/vps site had some guides on that topic i recall
[09:26] <tgary> histo: I've tried suspend to ram, but the charge stopped. It is an OS issue, how the USB HUB is turned off. Like you suggested: when I turn off my computer, Ubuntu puts the USB HUB in "off-off" mode. When I suspend it to ram, it stops it in a higher power state, thus enabling device charging.
[09:26] <Shadow}}> Dr_Willis; I'm on a how-to now, but it says to edit these vars however, I do not know if i am to change the vars to whatever or as he shows in the example...
[09:26] <histo> tgary: it is not an OS issue it's a hardware issue
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> Shadow}}:  i imagine you change to  to be what you need.
[09:27] <histo> !openvpn | Shadow}}
[09:27] <Shadow}}> Dr_Willis; IE: export KEY_Country="US" <- These things, And the email exports, To setup these certificates, Am I to use what I fill in or what the example has provided?
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> Country=US.. are you in the US?
[09:28] <llutz> Shadow}}: make it to fit your environment
[09:28] <Shadow}}> I've been sitting here arguing with myself... about it all.
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> i imagone his examples are ... examples...
[09:29] <Shadow}}> What about the export KEY_EMAIL= ?
[09:29] <llutz> Shadow}}: you can fill in whatever you want if it is for your private use only
[09:29] <Shadow}}> It is.
[09:29] <tgary> histo: The OS shuts down the HW! Read back: wake-on-lan is activated, when the ethernet card is not shut down completely (even when the computer is off); computer wakes up when a key is pressed on the USB keyboard while in suspend state, but these do not work, when the computer is completely turned off.
[09:29] <Shadow}}> But I do not have my own /domain email/, Is this required?
[09:29] <llutz> Shadow}}: fill in "foo" in each field, foo@bar in email and you're done
[09:30] <Shadow}}> So I was right... Its all for show, Yes?
[09:30] <llutz> Shadow}}: it is totally up to you what you fill in there. nobody cares
[09:30] <llutz> (on private usage)
[09:30] <Shadow}}> Define private usage please.
[09:30] <llutz> Shadow}}: "just you"
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> are you doing this for a mega-corp? :)
[09:31] <Shadow}}> Ah, Then yeah.
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> or your grandma and you?
[09:31] <Dr_Willis>  :)
[09:31] <Shadow}}> Of course not, If I was that corp would be bankrupt.
[09:32] <llutz> Dr_Willis: then he needs a valid email adress, how else would granny know where to direct her complaints
[09:32] <Shadow}}> Cut me some slack, I gave up on VPNs years ago on Windows. This however seemed easier.
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> she calle him up on that fancy new Tellular Phone
[09:33] <Shadow}}> =.= Lol, Thanks for the help.
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> I like the 'ads' for the new e-print printers.. give one to granny.. then you can print her mail straight to her... ;)  lovely way to use ink...
[09:33] <babinlonston> Now i cant enable eth0 in ubuntu 10.04 its saying module not available how can i enable the module manually
[09:34] <Dr_Willis> babinlonston:  sudo modprobe modulename
[09:34] <Dr_Willis> babinlonston:  did you compile your own kernel or somthing?
[09:35] <babinlonston> Dr_Willis: i installed ubunut 10.04 in virtual machine after that im getting this error
[09:35] <babinlonston> whats the module name for network in ubuntu 10.04
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> babinlonston:  vbox? or what?
[09:36] <babinlonston> yes
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> babinlonston:  theres no generic module for 'networkk' it depends on the network card
[09:36] <babinlonston> Hyper-v
[09:36] <babinlonston> oh
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> and vbox has options to use several differnt network cards in its settings
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> whyy are you using 10.04 anyway?
[09:36] <babinlonston> installing kaltura video paltform in it
[09:36] <babinlonston> Kalutra supports only ubuntu 10.04
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> sounds like somthing i would avoid. if they can only support a 4 yr old os..
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> but check your vbox settings. it can emulate i think 3 differnt network cards.
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> but the default settings have always worked for me
[09:38] <babinlonston> only one network card is there
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> id double check the vbox manual also.
[09:39] <babinlonston> k
[09:40] <Dr_Willis> i recall for some old windows versions, one had to change the default NIC vbox emulated to use some chipset that was included with the old windows.

[10:11] <ikonia> Antar: that wasn't my question
[10:11] <lvleph> pavelkovar: maybe make a live disk from a usb?
[10:11] <Antar> i want to install my pre downloaded iso
[10:11] <ikonia> Antar: have you read the link ubottu just gave you ?
[10:11] <Micky> could someone help me for scheduling a sh script in ubuntu ?
[10:12] <lvleph> I am sure there is a better way to do this but this is what I thought of, pavelkovar

[10:13] <Antar> ok ikonia can i make wubi use my downloaded iso instead of downloading another ?
[10:13] <Micky> with crontab -e I scheduled the follow:
[10:13] <Micky> 22 0 * * * root /home/boxinformatica/Scrivania/backup.sh
[10:13] <pavelkovar> ok, so probably I have to create live USB somehow, I expect some "secret command" to fix this :D
[10:13] <ikonia> Micky: yes, it's in the list
[10:13] <ikonia> Micky: why do you have the word "root" in there ?
[10:14] <Dozy> pavelkovar: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo
[10:14] <Micky> because I need that it must be executed as root
[10:14] <Dozy> there you go
[10:14] <MonkeyDust> Micky  do you want to run a job as root? if yes, use     sudo crontab -e
[10:14] <Antar> ikonia can you answer
[10:14] <ikonia> Micky: where in the crontab documentation does it tell you to put the word "root" in your crontab ?
[10:14] <ikonia> Antar: it's in the link ubottu gave you
[10:15] <Dozy> pavelkovar: that will do the job. GL with your issue
[10:15] <Micky> ikonia in some examples I read that is also possible to do it
[10:16] <Micky> I will try with the MonkeyDust suggestion
[10:16] <Antar> ikonia i read it i said that wubi trying to download new version during the installation
[10:16] <ikonia> Micky: I'd be interested in seeing those examples
[10:16] <Micky> doyou want the code of sh script ?
[10:16] <MonkeyDust> Micky  'root' is not a command, remove it from that line
[10:16] <Micky> I tried but nothing happen
[10:17] <ikonia> Micky: I'd like to see the example that tells you to put root in there
[10:17] <Micky> I will try with sudo crontab -e
[10:17] <MonkeyDust> Micky  try     sh /home/boxinformatica/Scrivania/backup.sh
[10:17] <Antar> infact this irc channel is not helpfull
[10:17] <ikonia> you don't need "sh"
[10:17] <ikonia> the backup.sh should have the appropiate shell set and enviornment variables
[10:17] <Micky> ikonia, http://askubuntu.com/questions/2368/how-do-i-set-up-a-cron-job topic #20
[10:17] <Dozy> pavelkovar: if you have no access to the boot menu you should be able to do this via a live CD
[10:17] <MonkeyDust> Antar  maybe this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wubi
[10:18] <ikonia> Micky: that's terrible, I'll flag that now
[10:18] <Dozy> Antar. DO you want to Duel boot or do you want to run it ontop of windows?
[10:18] <Antar> duel
[10:18] <Micky> ok
[10:18] <Dozy> ok you need to burn the ISO you downloaded from Ubuntu.com onto a Disk
[10:19] <pavelkovar> Dozy: I am going to try it now thankas
[10:19] <Dozy> np
[10:19] <Antar> i havent a lecture Dozy
[10:19] <Dozy> Antar:  I normally use imgburn
[10:19] <Dozy> what do you mean?
[10:20] <Antar> Dozy lecture cd
[10:20] <Antar> is there a way within windows
[10:21] <Dozy> no you need to burn the iso onto a DIsk or onto a usb drive
[10:21] <Dozy> Wubi is running ubuntu as if it was a program. That means that it will just run slower
[10:21] <Antar> okthx

[10:29] <dnivra> sharpshooter: Is mysql server running?
[10:29] <sharpshooter> nope
[10:29] <dnivra> restart it and you should be fine I guess.
[10:30] <sharpshooter> dnivra, it shows Job failed to start
[10:30] <sharpshooter> dnivra, when i type the command  service mysql start
[10:31] <dnivra> Are any other errors displayed? If not, maybe you should check the logs.
[10:31] <sharpshooter> dnivra, how can i check the mysql logs ?
[10:31] <pavelkovar> Hello, Thanks a lot I am root again on my machine
[10:31] <dnivra> sharpshooter: check /var/log/mysql* files.
[10:34] <sharpshooter> dnivra, in that there is two files when I opened that files with gedit it shows empty
[10:34] <sharpshooter> dnivra, how can take my mysql database backup with out login to mysql
[10:35] <dnivra> oh! probably the log location has been changed perhaps. Try /var/log/syslog perhaps. If not, you should probably find out where mysql error logs are stored.
[10:35] <sharpshooter> dnivra, ok checking...
[10:35] <clj_newb_2345> i installed ubuntu server -- now how do I get 3d acceleration? (I don't wnat to install ubuntu desktop since I don't want all the junk / unity / amazon crap)
[10:36] <dnivra> sharpshooter: try running "mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &"(as root if required: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/recover-mysql-root-password.html). you probably be able to login and then take a backup.
[10:36] <reisio> clj_newb_2345: ...what exactly do you mean to accelerate?
[10:37] <clj_newb_2345> I mean to have it use my graphics card for opengl calls
[10:37] <reisio> what's your graphics card?
[10:37] <clj_newb_2345> reisio: whatever that is in macbook pro 8,3
[10:37] <clj_newb_2345> I believe it's ati
[10:38] <sharpshooter> dnivra, here is the log : http://paste.ubuntu.com/5965921/
[10:39] <dnivra> sharpshooter: I see you ran mysqld_safe. were you able to login?
[10:39] <sarthor> Hi, Is there any channel for big blue button?
[10:39] <reisio> sarthor: what's that?
[10:39] <sarthor> reisio, video conferencing
[10:40] <sharpshooter> dnivra, no I didnt used that I guest it is the part of installation after the sudo apt-get upgrate
[10:40] <reisio> ...
[10:42] <dnivra> sharpshooter: if you want to take a backup, try following that link earlier and see if you are able to login without password.
[10:42] <dnivra> if not, try running "dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server"
[10:42] <sharpshooter> dnivra, k
[10:45] <sharpshooter> dnivra, thanks to that link I just ran the command mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
[10:46] <sharpshooter> dnivra, now it is working
[10:46] <Marco_aurelio> Hi, can someone help me?
[10:46] <dnivra> sharpshooter: actually mysql server isn't running. This is something like safe mode that helps you take the backup of the data :).
[10:47] <dnivra> Marco_aurelio: probably you should just ask away and someone who knows will help out.
[10:47] <sharpshooter> dnivra, yeah cool option

[10:49] <dnivra> Marco_aurelio: are you particular that you want to install using terminal. http://askubuntu.com/questions/11/how-do-i-install-adobe-flash-player might help if otherwise.
[10:49] <Marco_aurelio> Flashplugin-nonfree package is a virtual package provided by:
[10:49] <Marco_aurelio>    adobe-flashplugin-0precise1 <IP_ADDRESS>7
[10:49] <Marco_aurelio>    flashplugin-installer <IP_ADDRESS>7ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>
[10:49] <Marco_aurelio> You should explicitly select one to install.
[10:49] <FloodBot1> Marco_aurelio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> Marco_aurelio: enable partner repo and install adobe-flashplugin
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> Marco_aurelio: remove those packages you listed :)
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> Marco_aurelio: or install chrome and have no issues :)

The posts states to change the subsystem sftp setting to internal-sftp, but right now it's set to /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server
[11:33] <Devels> What are the implications fo this?
[11:33] <Devels> If any.
[11:33] <Devels> I'm having trouble really finding an answer
[11:36] <Devels> I understand there is a difference in implementation in how the processes are handled, but is that is, I suppse?

[11:44] <Left_Turn> hey which default program can i use to save a screenshot
[11:45] <ikonia> scrot ?
[11:45] <Left_Turn> oh ok let me try
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> Dozy: I use it as well as pidgin :)
[11:46] <Left_Turn> i have to install it? does ubuntu have any default program?
[11:46] <ikonia> isn't there a screen shot icon ?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> Left_Turn: hit your printscreen button on the keyboard...
[11:48] <Left_Turn> ok thanks ActionParsnip  that did it
[11:48] <Increase> rawr
[11:48] <Left_Turn> sorry to be a pain guys.. where in my terminal settings can i set my background colour?
[11:49] <ikonia> Left_Turn: preferences
[11:49] <Left_Turn> ah thanks ikonia
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> Left_Turn: Same printscreen works in Windows, or did you not use that>
[11:52] <Left_Turn> ah yeah but in windows u have to open paint to save it.. i didnt know it did it automatically on ubuntu:(
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> Left_Turn: but you would have still pressed printscreen....which is confusing me
[11:53] <Left_Turn> ActionParsnip: on windows nothing happens after you save it, like no prompt..
[11:53] <Left_Turn> print it sorry
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> Left_Turn: yes but you would have still pesssed the button to make the print screen, so I'm cnfused why you didnt just hit the same button in Ubutnu..
[11:54] <Left_Turn> no, i know how to prnt.. but i thought i needed to find a paint etc to be able to save it
[11:54] <Left_Turn> i copy and paste a lot so i didnt think my clipboard needed it just yet:(
[11:55] <dr_willis> !info mtpaint
[11:55] <dr_willis> i wonder if the clipboard manager apps handle images.

[12:25] <JacksonIsaac> here's my grub.cfg file http://paste.ubuntu.com/5966222/
[12:26] <yeats> JacksonIsaac: installing something in virtualbox will not affect anything on the host machine
[12:27] <JacksonIsaac> but when I rebooted my host debian image was coming in grub menu
[12:27] <JacksonIsaac> can you help me restore it to default please
[12:28] <yeats> JacksonIsaac: that makes no sense - Debian is not listed in your grub.cfg
[12:28] <JacksonIsaac> but some debian image is coming up instead of default ubuntu bg
[12:28] <yeats> !fixgrub | JacksonIsaac
[12:29] <JacksonIsaac> what command should I run
[12:29] <yeats> JacksonIsaac: read ubottu's links
[12:30] <Left_Turn> hey is /urs and /home the same?
[12:30] <Pici> Left_Turn: if you mean /usr/ and /home/  no.

[12:30] <Left_Turn> oh ok thanks
[12:30] <JacksonIsaac> GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`

[12:32] <JacksonIsaac> they told me to ask here
[12:32] <[OS]Cazazo> ActionParsnip: are you still around?
[12:32] <JacksonIsaac> I am using ubuntu 12.04
[12:32] <JacksonIsaac> only the grub image is changed
[12:34] <[OS]Cazazo> I'm having a problem... when I try to update and upgrade from CLI... I get an error http://paste.ubuntu.com/5965954/ I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32
[12:35] <auronandace> [OS]Cazazo: try: sudo apt-get install -f
[12:36] <[OS]Cazazo> same error
[12:36] <[OS]Cazazo> auronandace: got the same output!
[12:37] <auronandace> [OS]Cazazo: how about: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[12:37] <[OS]Cazazo> I tried that already...
[12:38] <[OS]Cazazo> auronandace: didn't work...
[12:38] <[OS]Cazazo> auronandace: will try it again
[12:39] <[OS]Cazazo> auronandace: same error...
[12:39] <auronandace> [OS]Cazazo: try reinstalling those packages
[12:39] <Ampelbein> [OS]Cazazo: "sudo apt-get clean" then try upgrading again.
[12:40] <jhutchins> [OS]Cazazo: I'd suggest rebooting with shutdown -Fr now
[12:40] <JacksonIsaac> the images in the /usr/share/images/defaul-grub has been changed
[12:40] <Ampelbein> [OS]Cazazo: If that doesn't work, fsck your fileystem.
[12:40] <jhutchins> [OS]Cazazo: Your package database is corrupt.
[12:41] <[OS]Cazazo> jhutchins: just typing reboot -Fr????
[12:41] <[OS]Cazazo> Ampelbein: same error
[12:42] <Ampelbein> [OS]Cazazo: Yes, "sudo shutdown -Fr now"
[12:42] <[OS]Cazazo> kk
[12:42] <[OS]Cazazo> Ampelbein: what that will do?
[12:42] <Ampelbein> [OS]Cazazo: Reboot and execute a file system check.
[12:43] <Ampelbein> [OS]Cazazo: Basically, the files on your hard disk are corrupt.

[12:44] <Bauer> on 12.04
[12:44] <[OS]Cazazo> Ampelbein: but I guess nothing is going right! I'll try your suggestion now... see you in a bit!
[12:44] <Ampelbein> [OS]Cazazo: See, that would have been a good information to pass along.
