[16:06] <imyerrow> yeah that is what i thought, ok thanks
[16:06] <cfhowlett> etwarrior, that there is some good detective work, Lou!
[16:08] <EriC^^> cfhowlett: are you familiar with lubuntu/old pc's?
[16:08] <tuxdna> I was installing flash player on my machine using  - apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[16:09] <cfhowlett> EriC^^, somewhat.  I know that lubuntu is specically optimized for "legacy" and low specification hardware
[16:09] <tuxdna> Apparently, it failed: Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_<IP_ADDRESS>1.orig.tar.gz  404  Not Found
[16:09] <cfhowlett> !flash | tuxdna
[16:09] <lord4163> Does anybody know about 10Gbit public iperf servers?
[16:10] <tuxdna> ubottu: that doesn't  work
[16:10] <EriC^^> cfhowlett: my friend has an old pc with amd athelon .. 2.0ghz with 1GB of ram, he has winxp right now but it needs formatting, though he could maybe install lubuntu, do you think it would work better?
[16:10] <OerHeks> tuxdna, current version is <IP_ADDRESS>5.orig.tar.gz
[16:10] <tuxdna> the link is 404 Not Found
[16:10] <EriC^^> *thought
[16:10] <cfhowlett> EriC^^, I'd start with lubuntu!  MAYBE xubuntu could also be an option.
[16:10] <OerHeks> tuxdna, i guess you neet to run sudo apt-get update first
[16:10] <tuxdna> well, I am using Ubuntu 14.10 and flashplugin-installer is picking that version
[16:11] <OerHeks> need*
[16:11] <tuxdna> I did apt-get update
[16:11] <tuxdna> OerHeks: already updated
[16:11] <EriC^^> cfhowlett: ok thanks
[16:11] <tuxdna> OerHeks: let me check once again
[16:11] <cfhowlett> EriC^^, happy2help
[16:11] <OerHeks> !info  flashplugin-installer
[16:13] <nully> I think there is no more new versions of Flash for gnu/linux
[16:13] <OerHeks> tuxdna, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:13] <tuxdna> OerHeks: its working now. Thanks :-)

[16:15] <adam_dddd> How can I run my programs in desktop? (this is the error: Untrusted application launcher)
[16:15]  * cfhowlett remembers running "apt-get update" for years in the belief that it would keep his system updated ...
[16:16] <ikonia> adam_dddd: what are you trying to run and how ?
[16:18] <adam_dddd> I have the shortcuts of some of the programs (in /usr/share/applications/) on my computer there. but I can't run them.
[16:21] <Ricky_det> hey, I'm trying install ubuntu onto my computer but I keep getting this error : https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/v/t1.0-9/10845929_428636770620623_6438938889569220089_n.jpg?oh=29a1d9974d1085a9cd206adff87beca7&oe=54FA1A89&__gda__=1425904319_42a963f5a005ac6b03eccc15b0351380
[16:21] <guig33k> hi want to know if actually ubuntu has released the last amd proprietary driver 14.12 of 09/12/2014 ? i use fglrx-update but i m not sure is the last
[16:21] <guig33k> ???
[16:22] <cfhowlett> Rick_SDR, www.tinyurl.com
[16:22] <guig33k> on ubuntu 14.10
[16:23] <Ricky_det> cfhowlett: hey man, I was talking to you yesterday to
[16:23] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, welcome back
[16:23] <OerHeks> Ricky_det, go into softwarecenter > edit > sources and remove the cd from sources.
[16:24] <guig33k> how i can know the fglrx version of my driver ?
[16:24] <Ricky_det> cfhowlett: : http://i.imgsafe.org/a63ae0c.jpg
[16:24] <Ricky_det> OerHeks: I'm on windows right now
[16:24] <Ricky_det> I don't know how to get into software centre from the cd ?
[16:25] <EriC^^> Ricky_det: did you checksum the iso?
[16:25] <Ricky_det> EriC^^: sorry man I have no idea what that means
[16:26] <cfhowlett> !md5sum | Ricky_det
[16:27] <tetz> hey guys, i have a pc with 2 gpu s and 3 mon s ... plymouth is shown on every mon but xserver only on 2, how to fix this?
[16:31] <Ricky_det> cfhowlett: what does "cd \path\to\cddir" mean ?
[16:31] <Ricky_det> I downloaded the md5sum.exe
[16:31] <Ricky_det> where does it want a path to ?
[16:32] <EriC^^> Ricky_det: the iso i guess
[16:32] <Ricky_det> the disc or md5 folder?
[16:32] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, cd = change directory         /path = to the location of the the .iso
[16:32] <andrcmdr> I just installed Ubuntu along side of a windows partition. When the machine boots it goes to a windows boot selection, I select Ubuntu it takes me straight to a grub prompt. When I type boot is says error no kernel loaded.
[16:32] <fego> u/3
[16:32] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, easy way on linux is to drag/drop the .iso into the terminal.  haven't used windows in so long, IDK if this works there
[16:33] <andrcmdr> Everything I’v searched so far isn’t working.
[16:33] <JustPie> Hey all. I have a rather strange situation. I am using a mdadm raid5 (sdc1,sdd1,sde1). I had everything setup fine for a few days. I rebooted my box and now all my disks are out of order. sdc1, is now sda1, etc. So my raid is broken. Does anyone know why this happened?
[16:33] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: boot a live usb and type sudo parted -l , paste in paste.ubuntu.com please
[16:34] <JustPie> andrcmdr: did you install windows before or after linux?
[16:34] <andrcmdr> Yes. Thanks EriC^^
[16:34] <andrcmdr> JustPie: before
[16:37] <Ricky_det> cfhowlett: I'm not getting how to do this unfortunatly -_-
[16:37] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, do you still have .iso?
[16:37] <andrcmdr> @EriC^^ paste.ubuntu.com/9517343
[16:38] <Ricky_det> cfhowlett: yeah
[16:38] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, boot the usb.  then go to your stored .iso and md5sum
[16:38] <Ricky_det> whats det mean?
[16:38] <Ricky_det> ohh
[16:38] <Ricky_det> nvm
[16:38] <Ricky_det> kk
[16:40] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi
[16:40] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: and paste here
[16:41] <prius-C> what powersaver options do we have for ubuntu on laptops?
[16:41] <prius-C> i get really poor battery life
[16:41] <ikonia> poor battery life is normally caused by poor power management support in linux
[16:41] <kyle> hello!
[16:42] <ikonia> as in compatibility
[16:42] <prius-C> so what can i do? install windows?!
[16:42] <ikonia> if that works better for you
[16:42] <ikonia> I'd certainly look at the hardware I'd got and check it's linux support status
[16:42] <andrcmdr> @EriC^^ ls: cannot access /sys/firmware/efi/: No such file or directory
[16:42] <ikonia> to understand what parts are/are not supported
[16:42] <ikonia> you could find great support and I'm mistaken
[16:42] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: you're not booted in uefi?
[16:43] <prius-C> msi ghost 444 laptop
[16:43] <ikonia> I'm stating a common cause with no investigation
[16:43] <prius-C> that is my computer
[16:43] <ikonia> prius-C: ok, so research it's linux compatibility
[16:43] <andrcmdr> I’m in the demo cd
[16:43] <andrcmdr> uefi is off in bios
[16:43] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: i think you installed ubuntu in legacy mode, you have a 1024kb partition which i think is the bios-boot for gpt to work
[16:43] <prius-C> ikonia: how would i do that?
[16:43] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: why?
[16:43] <Chuck_Norris> prius-C: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/10/advanced-power-management-tool-tlp-06.html
[16:43] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: you have gpt and an efi partition..
[16:43] <ikonia> prius-C: research, the web, the vendor, the individual chipsets
[16:44] <andrcmdr> I don’t know. I just booted form the dvd and installed to the best I could.
[16:45] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: did you disable uefi?
[16:45] <andrcmdr> Yes, in the bios
[16:45] <prius-C> thank you Chuck_Norris you always kick serious ass!

[16:45] <Saleem> i got the message as unable to mount Windows Mount Only root can mount it
[16:46] <prius-C> i now have a 2 hour battery life instead of the usual 45 minutes
[16:46] <Saleem> hot to fix this issue
[16:46] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: when did you disable it?
[16:46] <ikonia> prius-C: I advise against blindly installing that
[16:46] <Saleem> anyone tell this issue how to fix t
[16:47] <prius-C> ikonia: well, your method is way too advanced for me i can barely install an operating system
[16:47] <ikonia> prius-C: installing 3rd party software blindly is even more advanced and dangerous
[16:48] <andrcmdr> I don’t know. It’s been a blur trying to get this to work.
[16:49] <andrcmdr> Probably before I installed Ubuntu.
[16:50] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: ok, why did you disable it?
[16:50] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: win8 was running with uefi, you disabled it, then installed ubuntu?
[16:50] <andrcmdr> I’m running win7. No uefi.
[16:51] <EriC^^> so you disabled uefi before, and then installed win7?
[16:51] <andrcmdr> I have win7 installed and uefi disabled.
[16:52] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt
[16:53] <andrcmdr> Sorry for the confusion. I appreciate your help.
[16:55] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: no problem
[16:55] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: did you mount the filesystem?
[16:55] <andrcmdr> I’m booting back into the live cd
[16:55] <EriC^^> ok
[16:58] <andrcmdr> I mounted the filesystem
[16:59] <andrcmdr> that’s the windows one

[17:04] <x-os> specific IPs without making mistakes when changing proxy info on the browser itself. all our servers run Ubuntu 14.04

[17:10] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: do you see your installation?
[17:10] <Ricky_det> cfhowlett: okay, do I run wubi.exe ? or go to file folders and get the md5 hash ?
[17:11] <andrcmdr> I see files. not a linux filesystem
[17:11] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, never say "wubi" again.  never.  it's the forbidden term.
[17:11] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: odd
[17:11] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: what files?
[17:11] <Ricky_det> erks , sorry!
[17:11] <EriC^^> andrcmdr: can you type sudo parted -l and make sure sda5 is the ext4 partition?
[17:12] <cfhowlett> Ricky_det, you said you had the .iso.  find.  boot ubuntu.  open file manager.  go to .iso location.  start terminal.  md5sum the .iso
[17:13] <Ricky_det> is the ISO location going to be the same on ubuntu as it is on windows
[17:13] <Ricky_det> and how do I ms5sum the iso
[17:13] <Ricky_det> *md5sum
[17:13] <andrcmdr> parted shows number 5 is my ext4

[17:23] <_jay1> 12.04: anyone know the location of the application folder? (I'm actually having a hard time compiling a program because it can't find libboost-locale, which is installed, but I think it's in the wrong place.)
[17:23] <EriC^^> _jay1: whereis libboost-locale
[17:24] <_jay1> usr/lib
[17:24] <pepe> i  can help you _jay1
[17:24] <SchrodingersScat> _jay1: also, you got the -dev package, yeah?
[17:24] <compdoc> sudo updatedb, then:   locate libboost
[17:25] <_jay1> I will check on the dev package
[17:25] <EriC^^> _jay1: dpkg -L <package> | grep libboost
[17:25] <pepe> _jay1 /usr/share/lintian/overrides
[17:26] <pepe> _jay1 thats the answers
[17:26] <pepe> _jay1 thats the answer
[17:26] <_jay1> there are many answers here :)
[17:26] <Chuck_Norris> _jay1: sudo apt-get install libboost-locale-dev
[17:27] <azizLIGHT> Can I install ubuntu server 14.04 which is x64 on a 64 bit cpu and 64 bit Windows 7 with vmware workstation 11
[17:27] <_jay1> if I go to install lib boost-dev it wants to remove a lot of other boost libs
[17:27] <_jay1> *locale-dev
[17:28] <_jay1> unable to locate libboost-locale-dev
[17:29] <OerHeks> azizLIGHT, sure, if you have  licences for vmware workstation 11 and windows
[17:29] <azizLIGHT> I mean do I get 32bit server or 64 bit server in this scenario
[17:29] <azizLIGHT> Do not want to commit to the wrong download on my connection
[17:30] <BluesKaj_> azizLIGHT, depends which server architecture you choose to install, both 32 and 64bit should be available
[17:30] <OerHeks> azizLIGHT, if you click the right button, you don't get 32 bit
[17:31] <azizLIGHT> Which will work: 64 bit or 32 bit
[17:32] <BluesKaj_> both will, if your sytem is 64 bit
[17:32] <squinty> azizLIGHT:   have you checked to see if vmware supports 64 bit installs.  that should tell you if applicable or not
[17:32] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: hey I can't access any folders on the trial of ubuntu ?
[17:32] <ricky_ub> I'm on the trial version through my cd right now
[17:32] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, where is the .iso?
[17:32] <Vadim_> [17:33] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: its in the downloads folder in windows
[17:33] <ricky_ub> and on the disc I'd assu,e
[17:33] <ricky_ub> *assume
[17:33] <_jay1> I would like to be able to just symlink the boost-locale lib to the proper folder, but "application/x-sharelib is buried somewhere...
[17:33] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, stop assuming.  where did you *store* the .iso?
[17:34] <ricky_ub> i messed up
[17:34] <squinty> ricky_ub:   start  Disks   from the main menu and see if your windows partition is mounted.  if not you should be able to mount it from there
[17:35] <ricky_ub> im ganna reboot and double check where its stored I cant find it atm
[17:40] <enko_> I am having trouble wtih grub auto selecting Ubuntu - I have to select it myself to boot, Can someone please assist? here is my grub:
[17:40] <enko_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9517989/
[17:42] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: I'm rebooting, wrote down exact dir this time
[17:42] <enko_> from what I understand "GRUB_DEFAULT=0" auto selects the first one in the list which is "Ubuntu" but grub literally just sits there
[17:44] <hemlis> what is the version of kernel on Trusty ?
[17:45] <cfhowlett> hemlis, depends on what you've upgraded to ...
[17:45] <amari> hemlis: 3.13 (with 3.16 available from the official repository)
[17:45] <squinty> hemlis: 3.13.0-43 after updating here
[17:45] <hemlis> current default ?
[17:46] <hemlis> ok
[17:46] <hemlis> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/foo2capt
[17:46] <hemlis> this could not build for me
[17:46] <He4dShOt> hello
[17:47] <azizLIGHT> Well I downloaded 64 bit server and vmware says no I cannot do it
[17:47] <He4dShOt> how can I change the programs that open when I click  a irc:// link on the browser?
[17:47] <azizLIGHT> Waste of time
[17:47] <reisio> azizLIGHT: :)
[17:47] <reisio> virtualbox is less annoying frequently
[17:47] <reisio> being open source
[17:47] <reisio> and more annoying other times, being from Sun :p
[17:47] <jmadero> is there a way for me to completely silence my subwoofer?
[17:48] <jmadero> I thought changing pulse to 5.0 vs. 5.1 would do it, did not
[17:48] <reisio> unplug it
[17:48] <reisio> but yeah you can no doubt disable it from pulse, too
[17:48] <jmadero> it's an all in one setup - the speakers run through the sub
[17:48] <reisio> or alsa
[17:48] <squinty> oracle now... sun origin
[17:49] <reisio> yup
[17:49] <reisio> oracle would only make it worse, of course :)
[17:50] <enko_> Any linux guru's on to help with my Grub situation?
[17:52] <reisio> enko_: #gurus
[17:52] <enko_> lol i went there :/
[17:52] <jmadero> enko_: #linux maybe
[17:53] <squinty> enko_:  I have noticed that happening on a couple of occasions where the system has been shutdown improperly (ie power outage).  you might want to try  fsck'ing your drives to see it reports anything amiss.
[17:53] <enko_> squinty, ok, will do.
[17:53] <zoom> my screen is flickering, is that just the computer being old?
[17:54] <jmadero> zoom: how old is your computer?
[17:54] <zoom> 2.75 years
[17:54] <rozeo> hi
[17:55] <reisio> hi roz
[17:55] <adleida> hello
[17:57] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: hey man, I booted my ubuntu CD and on that I found the location where .iso is
[17:57] <ricky_ub> now what do I do sir ?
[17:57] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, file manager: open a terminal in the .iso location.
[17:57] <ricky_ub> how do I do that?
[17:59] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: how do i do that?
[17:59] <ricky_ub> open a terminal in the .iso location
[17:59] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, right click: open terminal
[18:00] <applepi> Hi all..  I was having some trouble with my rc.local script being run twice when I discovered ALL rcN scripts seem to be running twice
[18:00] <applepi> I can't seem to track down why this is happening
[18:00] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: all I see it new folder, newdocument, orgnize desktop by name, keep aligned and change desktop backround
[18:00] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: but I opened a terminal by just searching it how do I cd to the iso location?>
[18:01] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, open a terminal.  type md5sum    leave a space.  drag and drop the .iso in the terminal
[18:01] <applepi> does anyone have an experience in this / know why this is happening?
[18:02] <reisio> applepi: maybe your init system is running twice
[18:03] <applepi> reisio: but why would it be doing that?  I can't find any reason it would be..
[18:04] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: okay I did it
[18:04] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, so your terminal now has: md5sum stuffgoeshere.iso
[18:04] <reisio> applepi: right, that's the point, to find it :)
[18:04] <ricky_ub> yeah
[18:04] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: yeah
[18:04] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, <enter>
[18:05] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: okay I did it
[18:05] <ricky_ub> nothing happend I don't think
[18:06] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, fpaste.org    let's see
[18:06] <applepi> reisio: it's bizarre, I can only find one call to init.d/rcS...  maybe I just need to take it out and see what complains or something.
[18:08] <ricky_ub> fpaste.org/159641/18580476/
[18:08] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: fpaste.org/159641/18580476/
[18:09] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, there you go.  compare that LOOOONG number against the hashsum from the download site
[18:12] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: I found out on the page
[18:12] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, they should match
[18:12] <ricky_ub> yes they do perfectly, cfhowlett
[18:13] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, then you have a good .iso.  now you need only verify the USB.  read the wiki
[18:13] <ricky_ub> USB?
[18:13] <ricky_ub> I got a DVD/CD
[18:13] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, same same
[18:13] <cfhowlett> !md5sum | ricky_ub
[18:13] <jetro> hey all, I'm on ubuntu 14.04 and I just updated the system (via system monitor). After the update my computer restarts and I try to log in using my password. Once I enter my password all I see is the background and nothing else
[18:13] <jetro> I can move the mouse around and that's about it
[18:14] <jetro> I don't see my apps, and pressing ctrl-alt-t does not open terminal
[18:14] <squinty> ricky_ub:  fwiw and for possible future reference, you might want to checkout  winmd5sum  (freebie) for your windows install (gui and automatically does a comparision of the md5sum results)  a little user friendly than just the commandline md5sum imho
[18:14] <jetro> the graphics also look blurry, so I think there may be an issue with my nvidia driver
[18:14] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM#Check_the_CD
[18:16] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: okay, great is it ok if I rename the file to something shorter so this is easier to do?
[18:16] <ricky_ub> the .iso file
[18:16] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, of course!  you are using the terminal ... come to the dark side!
[18:16] <squinty> jetro:  if you installed a newer kernel as part of the update, you should be able to select the previous kernel from the grub boot menu.  that should get you into a working desktop again
[18:17] <jetro> squinty, when ubuntu boots up it does not go through the boot menu (it was like this even before the update)
[18:18] <jetro> so it just directly goes to the login screen
[18:18] <squinty> jetro:   you can access the boot menu by pressing down on your shift key after the initial boot screen
[18:18] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: this is so fricken hard. lol
[18:18] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, only the first time
[18:19] <jetro> squinty, let me try that
[18:19] <squinty> ricky_ub:  doesn't have to be... copy the iso to your linux partition and then use your file manager to rename the iso.  forget about doing it in terminal
[18:21] <ricky_ub> squinty: oh yeah I renamed it in my file manager, I meant verifying the CD was really difficult
[18:22] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, bad downloads happen.  bad cd/dvd's happen.  a few minutes to verify your media can save a lot of confusion and heartache
[18:22] <nimbiotics> hello everyone. I was Trying to install xampp and it didnt seem to work, but the most annoying part is that I firefox is nhot behaving the same: I cannot see my history and it doesnt keep any of my7 previous tabs open. Is there a way to fix that?
[18:22] <squinty> ricky_ub:  if you boot up the dvd, isn't there an option to verify the dvd medium integrity?  (most live iso's seem to included that as part of the boot up options iirc)
[18:23] <clavier> i find the source of my problème, when i open something i relation with flash like a youtube video my screen go be black
[18:23] <cfhowlett> squinty, that only verifies that the internal filesystem of the cd/dvd.  doesn't compare the actual OS against the hash
[18:24] <squinty> nimbiotics:  look in firefox's options > general > show my tabs from last time
[18:25] <jetro> squinty, I tried pressing shift at various times during the booting process (pressing and holding shift as well), but was not able to get the boot menu up
[18:27] <nimbiotics> squinty: I did that, yet, everytime I start firefox its almost like I just installed, except firefox has all my addons (with the default settings)
[18:27] <squinty> jetro: should work. you can also edit the grub file to make it automatically display. see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Command_Line_and_Rescue_Mode for details
[18:28] <squinty> nimbiotics:  try disabling your addons to see if one off them is causing a problem.  firefox --help   in terminal for options.   #firefox channel on freenode too
[18:29] <jetro> squinty, I am not able to access terminal or tty mode, basically the login screen comes up, and after I enter my password everything freezes, let me try shift a few more times
[18:29] <nimbiotics> squinty: thanks
[18:30] <ricky_ub> squinty: I don't see one
[18:30] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: alright. I think the DVD is bad since it does not work in the installation part, I'll just get a new one
[18:30] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, STOP!
[18:30] <ricky_ub> verifying will take alot of time I don't have atm
[18:30] <ricky_ub> kk
[18:31] <squinty> ricky_ub:  if burning a new dvd, burn at a low value (ie 4X)  high burn values is a common source of burn errors
[18:31] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: okay stopped whats up:P
[18:31] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, you have to read the links we send.  those hash sums WILL be different.  that's why I sent you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM#Check_the_CD
[18:31] <ricky_ub> okay
[18:31] <darkneo> Hello everyone from darkneo
[18:31] <ki7rw> is their an HCL somewhere that has a list of hotspot devices that are compatible with linux?
[18:31] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: I did, I can't figure out what it all means I mean ls "-l ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 jsmith jsmith 732766208 2008-10-28 23:24 ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso"
[18:32] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, use the current information not those placeholders
[18:32] <ricky_ub> I don't get how to make my version of that like where to input my information etc
[18:33] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, ls -l is the command.  the iso is YOUR iso
[18:34] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: I'm getting command not found
[18:35] <jetro> squinty, so yeah shift doesnt seem to bring the menu up and I can't seem to access terminal or tty in any way to change grub settings
[18:35] <ricky_ub> when I type in 1s -1 ubun.iso , cfhowlett
[18:35] <jetro> I am screwed?
[18:35] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, drag and drop the ubun.iso
[18:36] <jetro> squinty, I think this has to do with my nvidia graphics card and it's driver, which I manually installed since there was no package for it. Should I take out the graphics card and try the onboard graphics?
[18:37] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: I'm getting the same thing cammond not found
[18:37] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, paste
[18:38] <squinty> jetro:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting   see "Normal" heading information.  might be able to access grub via pressing Esc
[18:38] <dash_> A normal 'apt-get dist-upgrade' seemed to have broken my X setup (I ony get a black screen with a mouse cursor instead of the login screen) for me yesterday, or so. Is this a known problem? I'm on 14.10.
[18:38] <jetro> squinty, actually the only dvi port I see is on my graphics card
[18:38] <ricky_151> http://fpaste.org/159644/85823171/,  cfhowlett
[18:38] <ricky_ub> cfhowlett: ricky_151 is me on my desktop with ubuntu
[18:39] <cfhowlett> ricky_ub, letters only: no numbers; ls+one space+l
[18:40] <squinty> jetro:  you could also try reinstalling grub via the livedvd (via chroot) the information should also be on that last page I posted
[18:40] <christophe_> hello everyone
[18:41] <BlackY> Hi
[18:41] <christophe_> there are many thing that do not work out fine here for me
[18:41] <exoyds_> hi!
[18:42] <christophe_> probleme with firefow crashing
[18:42] <squinty> dash_:  nvidia graphics?  seems to be common the last couple of days.  tried rebooting and selecting a previous kernel from the grub boot menu?  worth a try...
[18:42] <jazzzu> Hi, I have a weird error trying to reinstall nginx (or atleast I dont understand it :p). When I purge and reinstall using apt-get. it only installs the empty folders and none of the files in /etc/nginx/. I think it probably has something to do with me running "rm -rf /etc/nginx" while the service was still installed (oops). Is there a way to fix this? How did I manage to do this? Thanks
[18:42] <christophe_> squinty,  are you talking to me ??
[18:42] <exoyds_> guys does anyone know how to properly confiugre postfix and dovecot
[18:42] <exoyds_> ?
[18:43] <jetro> squinty, thanks I'll try the live cd
[18:43] <christophe_> firefox is already running but is not responding.....
[18:43] <christophe_> first close the existing firefox process
[18:44] <christophe_> grrr ...
[18:44] <jmadero> christophe_: you need to kill it from terminal
[18:44] <kostkon> christophe_, pkill firefox
[18:44] <christophe_> anyone know about firefox issues ?
[18:44] <jmadero> that happens to my wife all the time on her system
[18:44] <jmadero> no clue why
[18:44] <jmadero> report a bug with firefox
[18:44] <ricky_151> cfhowlett. http://fpaste.org/159645/85826601/
[18:44] <squinty> chrislol:  no but try running firefox without any addons. see if the stability improves.  also try starting firefox in terminal to see if error messages are displayed.  firefox --help for options.  might also want to check in the #firefox channel here on freenode
[18:44] <jmadero> with firefox moving to yahoo - I'm moving explicitly to Chromium
[18:45] <cfhowlett> ricky_151, good. refer to the wiki link
[18:45] <squinty> jmadero:  you can change the default search enging
[18:45] <squinty> engine
[18:45] <jmadero> I know - I just think it's the third mistake in a row that Mozilla has made
[18:45] <jmadero> Chromium works fine
[18:45] <christophe_> kostkon,  so "sudo pkill firefox"??
[18:45] <squinty> jmadero: chromium/chrome have their own issues too. :P
[18:46] <jmadero> indeed ;)
[18:46] <kostkon> christophe_, no, just pkill firefox
[18:46] <jmadero> just not quite so terrible from a PR standpoint haha
[18:46] <christophe_> ok
[18:46] <dash_> squinty: Nvidia allright, so that could be it. I'll look into that. Thanks!
[18:47] <ricky_151> cfhowlett: okay, http://fpaste.org/159646/82862141/ look ok?
[18:47] <ricky_151> I think it is taking a while to load like it said it would
[18:48] <cfhowlett> ricky_151, command correct.  wait for the feedback
[18:49] <darkblue_b> Q. Can you tell me what this does ??!    sudo apt-get upgrade anjuta anjuta-extras
[18:49] <christophe_> squinty, how to run firefox from terminal ??
[18:49] <theadmin> christophe_: firefox
[18:49] <jmadero> christophe_: in terminal just put "firefox"
[18:49] <jmadero> no quotes
[18:49] <darkblue_b> fire<tab>
[18:50]  * darkblue_b tab completion makes the terminal useable to me
[18:50] <cfhowlett> darkblue_b, that upgrades to most current package available in repos
[18:50] <darkblue_b> cfhowlett: upgrades *what* ?
[18:50] <darkblue_b> only anjuta ?
[18:51] <cfhowlett> darkblue_b, the listed package; anjuta and anjuta-extras
[18:51] <darkblue_b> ok
[18:51] <squinty> darkblue_b:  try  sudo apt-get -s   (to simulate the upgrade)  see what happens
[18:51] <darkblue_b> things that do not seem related are being upgraded, and I got a sick feeling it was trying to do more
[18:51] <darkblue_b> .. but ok
[18:51] <squinty> darkblue_b:  if it looks ok then do a real update
[18:52] <jazzzu> nvm my question (about nginx conf).. found the solution
[18:52] <theadmin> darkblue_b: You're doing it wrong
[18:52] <cfhowlett> darkblue_b, actually apt-get -s NO SUDO will do
[18:52] <darkblue_b> theadmin: how do I do it ?
[18:52] <theadmin> darkblue_b: To upgrade a partciular app, use "sudo apt-get install", not "upgrade"
[18:52] <darkblue_b> ....
[18:52] <theadmin> darkblue_b: "upgrade" upgrades everything I think
[18:52] <darkblue_b> thats what I am worried about, ad that is what the other droogs said
[18:52] <theadmin> Can't hurt to be up-to-date
[18:52] <darkblue_b> ..was not happening
[18:53] <darkblue_b> guys we have contradictory info here
[18:53] <theadmin> darkblue_b: "upgrade is used to install the newest versions of all packages currently installed on the system from the sources enumerated in
[18:53] <theadmin>  /etc/apt/sources.list." -- apt-get manual.
[18:53] <squinty> darkblue_b:  simulate first... then *you* know what is happening :P
[18:53] <theadmin> all packages.
[18:54] <darkblue_b> cfhowlett: you are WRONG then
[18:54] <darkblue_b> I would like to know what that line does, please
[18:54] <cfhowlett> darkblue_b, my bad.  sorry for the intel.  I had hoped to complete 2014 with zero errors ...
[18:54] <squinty> darkbasic_:  or forget the commandline and use synaptic package manager
[18:54] <squinty> taking a break...........
[18:55] <darkblue_b> people are human of course, but a direct answer to a direct question..
[18:55] <darkblue_b> so if I say   sudo apt-get upgrade wtf one two three
[18:55] <theadmin> darkblue_b: To install the latest version of particular packages, use "sudo apt-get install package1 package2 package3" etc
[18:56] <darkblue_b> I am upgrading my whole OS ?
[18:56] <ZAKhan> my cd card is giving problems and i am unable to create a partition table
[18:56] <theadmin> darkblue_b: Basically, yeah
[18:56] <darkblue_b> theadmin: that is my question
[18:56] <bekks> darkblue_b: you are updating packages to the atest version for your specific release.
[18:56] <ZAKhan> *sd card
[18:56] <darkblue_b> bekks: the *whole systems* packages ??!?
[18:56] <bekks> darkblue_b: Yes.
[18:57] <bubbasaures> ZAKhan, This a uefi computer, and how are you doing this?
[18:57] <jetro> squinty, I am on the live cd, which part of the instructions am I following (forgive me, I am new to all ths)
[18:57] <theadmin> darkblue_b: What's wrong with upgrading everything? It's a good thing to do every once in a while.
[18:57] <bekks> darkblue_b: If you are just updating specific packages, the answer is no, obviously.
[18:57] <darkblue_b> bekks: nothing at all about this is obvious
[18:58] <bekks> darkblue_b: If you have lets say, three packages: A, B and C, and you are updating A only - then you are not updating all packages. Do you agree?
[18:58] <darkblue_b> theadmin: "whats wrong with this" is not the same question as "does command line A do this"
[18:58] <cfhowlett> darkblue_b, can you clarify your end goal?
[18:58] <jetro> squnity, I am following this: http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd
[18:58] <theadmin> darkblue_b: I know, you just seem kinda scared, I was wondering if you were afraid that upgrading everything would break something.
[18:59] <darkblue_b> I am not afraid actually
[18:59] <jetro> squinty, I am following this: http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd
[18:59] <theadmin> darkblue_b: Anyway, digging in the manual, it seems that "upgrade" completely ignores extra arguments, so it will upgrade anything regardless of whether or not you supply package names. "install", on the other hand, will eat the package names appropriately.
[19:00] <darkblue_b> theadmin: that is what I am asking, exactly..
[19:00] <theadmin> darkblue_b: Okay, please state an exact question then, sorry, I missed it
[19:00] <darkblue_b> ok now I know.. I appreciate the tips
[19:00] <darkblue_b> thx
[19:00] <theadmin> Ah alright.
[19:00] <cfhowlett> theadmin, eh, I thought *dist-upgrade* was the global upgrade command.  upgrade can be target package specific no?
[19:01] <seryph> possibly dumb question, but trying to connect with a pl serial-usb converter to a device via ubuntu with screen /dev/ttyUSB0 9600 and it just terminates. Looks like the driver is loaded from lsmod | grep pl though.
[19:01] <theadmin> cfhowlett: No. The difference between dist-upgrade and upgrade is that the first one also pulls in new dependencies.
[19:01] <seryph> Any ideas?
[19:01] <cfhowlett> theadmin, OK
[19:01] <darkblue_b> clever use of current repos in  /etc/apt/sources*  can control the behaviour I suspect
[19:02] <theadmin> cfhowlett: And the second one will hold back packages that have new dependencies, instead. So for example, a kernel upgrade will need you to use "dist-upgrade" and not just "upgrade".
[19:02] <theadmin> darkblue_b: If there's a particular package you don't want to upgrade, you can tell APT to ignore it, like this: echo "hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
[19:03] <cfhowlett> theadmin, THERE'S the crucial difference!  Thank you for a comprehensible explanation!
[19:03] <darkblue_b> theadmin: yeah I have seen that done.. I am not that dialed in atm but I have heard of it
[19:06] <exoyds_> Guys can anyone help me with postfix and dovecot config?
[19:07] <bekks> exoyds_: Do you have a specific question?
[19:08] <theadmin> cfhowlett: APT's weird, takes forever to figure those things out.
[19:08] <exoyds_> Well a specific problem
[19:08] <exoyds_> i get the mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual-alias-maps.cf lookup error for<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[19:09] <exoyds_> -- message not accepted, try again
[19:10] <bekks> exoyds_: "the lookup error"? Which lookup error in detail?
[19:11] <jetro> I have chrooted into my hard drive from a live cd, can I back up my files by copying them to my dropbox folder?
[19:11] <exoyds_> there's no more info in the logs sadly :(
[19:11] <exoyds_> that's all i get
[19:12] <jetro> or will trying to move around files while I am chrooted into the hard drive cause data loss?
[19:12] <theadmin> jetro: If you just want to back up files, it's not necessary to chroot
[19:12] <theadmin> jetro: Just open the file manager and find your HD there
[19:12] <bekks> jetro: you cannot backup an entire system to dropbox, but just your personal data files.
[19:13] <jetro> bekks: I just want to save my important files, can I simply copy the files to my dropbox directory or an external usb, or would that mess up the hard drive?
[19:14] <bekks> jetro: It will not even affect the harddrive.
[19:14] <jetro> bekks, thanks!
[19:19] <DrAwesomeClaws> hey folks.  Anyone who's using a trackpad... have you noticed the setting for "disable trackpad while typing" doesn't do anything?  Is this a known issue?  I'm assuming the trackpad drivers that get loaded for a macbook pro aren't open source... ?
[19:20] <Hexagon> DrAwesomeClaws I've also noticed that issue on my macbook
[19:20] <Hexagon> I don't have a solution, though :(
[19:20] <DrAwesomeClaws> if there are some open drivers i'd be willing to maybe go in and take a look.  Doesn't seem like it'd be the hardest thing to implement
[19:20] <DrAwesomeClaws> but i don't really know much about driver development, so figured i'd ask.  Thanks for the info Hexagon
[19:21] <one> hola
[19:22] <DrAwesomeClaws> it's especially annoying because the trackpad is sensitive enough to register my palms hovering over it.  So when typing it selects and clicks things randomly, haha

[19:39] <ricky_151> hey
[19:40] <ricky_151> I have downloaded ubuntu onto a disk, verified cd & the image file both have valid hashes
[19:40] <ricky_151> yet when I try to install ubuntu onto my computer it gives me an error
[19:40] <EriC^^> ricky_151: did you disable secure boot?
[19:40] <ricky_151> EriC^^:  no, what is that ?
[19:41] <EriC^^> it should be in the bios if you have it
[19:41] <EriC^^> ubuntu should be on the list of safe os's but it's worth a shot
[19:41] <ricky_ub> EriC^^: okay, I don't think it is there because I installed ubuntu in the past on the same computer without any problems before
[19:41] <EriC^^> ok

[19:55] <desperate_joe> hello, hp laptop - ubuntu 14.04 - for some reason my ubuntu changes my keyboard from azerty into qwerty sometimes on starting up pcm sometimes during use
[19:58] <desperate_joe> i really could use some help - rather urgently - i need to start writing my thesis and with a messed up keyboard it is hard
[19:59] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: As a thought, have you tried resetting your keyboard from the task bars's icon ?
[20:00] <SchrodingersScat> or removing the keyboard layout you don't wish to use?
[20:01] <desperate_joe> how to do that
[20:02] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: I do not run unity, so can not be explicit. But right click the emblem and see what the options are .
[20:03] <desperate_joe> which emblem
[20:04] <xangua> your keyboard icon in the statusbar desperate_joe
[20:04] <desperate_joe> i have found it, and the layout was correct
[20:05] <desperate_joe> but i have deleted the excess one, and it suddenly now is ok!
[20:05] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: At the right of the top task bar (unity/14.04) is a keyboard emblem/icon. That can reset the keyboard to different configuration.
[20:05] <desperate_joe> i think it is solved now - have to wait a reboot later on
[20:06] <desperate_joe> thank you to help with this problem
[20:06] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: :) all is well that ends well .
[20:06] <krishnaghchaitan> is there any way to find keysm of of some external keys i have tried xkeyevent command but no gains
[20:06] <desperate_joe> one more issue though - something completely different
[20:07] <Bashing-om> krishnaghchaitan: Try terminal command -> xev <- .
[20:07] <Bashing-om> !ask | desperate_joe
[20:08] <krishnaghchaitan> yup tried...i have dell n5110 and i tried a method given in ubuntu forums! i even tried xev and i only there is luck with 1 key and the rest two appear to be unlucky
[20:08] <desperate_joe> software updater:  can not update because of "requires installation of untrusted packages"
[20:09] <Penagwin> Hello, is this the correct place to ask about mouse bindings?
[20:09] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: 3rd party software that you installed and did not get the signing key(s) for ?
[20:09] <desperate_joe> i have no idea what you mean by that
[20:09] <desperate_joe> i'm kind of a noob (if you haven't noticed by now)
 you may find this useful http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/
[20:11] <lionrouge> hi !
[20:11] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: We were all new at one time, to be new is not a sin .. OK show the channel the error you are getting. -> sudo apt-get install pastebinit , sudo apt-get update | pastebinit , sudo apt-get upgrade | pastebinit .
[20:12] <lionrouge> i updated my 14.04 to 14.10 and now it hangs after showing the background image of the login manager and doesn't show any of it's controls
[20:12] <lionrouge> i still can go to console mode
[20:12] <lionrouge> maybe i should delete my fglrx-update ?
[20:12] <desperate_joe> @krishnaghchaitan... i have no clue what that page you linked me supposes to mean? :o
[20:13] <desperate_joe> @bashing - ok, will try to look on terminal - i actually only use software updater, not used of terminal
[20:13] <Penagwin> Anyone? I seem to be having weird things happening with binding the back button on the mouse to "xdotool key ctrl+alt+Down"
[20:14] <Bashing-om> krishnaghchaitan: Thus external device with the keybinding isssue, is it external and how is it connectd ? .. USB ? What do the log files reflect ?
[20:14] <krishnaghchaitan> desperate_joe did you try to add any repo before getting this error??
[20:15] <desperate_joe> @krish? i have no idea
[20:15] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: We will get ya through the fright over the terminal. The terminal is your froend .. and is best to relay info .
[20:16] <Bashing-om> friend*
[20:16] <desperate_joe> after installing 14.04, i installed the software that i needed/wanted, using forum and step by step guides, but i have no idea about the actual names
[20:16] <desperate_joe> how to pastebinit?
[20:16] <krishnaghchaitan> Bashing-om i have 3 keys and only 1 key i press shows some logs in system logs and the rest dont show any logs and the same buttons in windows are working fine thats the problem
[20:17] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: The results in the "apt-get" commands will indicate the what and whewre . we take it from there when we see those results .
[20:17] <krishnaghchaitan> okay desperate_joe give the link from where you tried to install softwares?
[20:18] <desperate_joe> @krish that is already such a long time ago... i do not keep track of that, once installed and working i do not keep them logged
[20:18] <desperate_joe> how to pastebinit?
[20:19] <Hexagon> COMMAND | pastebinit
[20:19] <Bashing-om> !pastebin | desperate_joe
[20:19] <krishnaghchaitan> desperate_joe run "sudo apt-get update" and paste them as ubottu said
[20:20] <krishnaghchaitan> paste them means paste the output you got
[20:21] <desperate_joe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9519641/
[20:21] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Great ! look'n at your http://paste.ubuntu.com/9519641/ .
[20:22] <desperate_joe> i'm doing the update as we speak
[20:23] <desperate_joe> it's a wonder to my as how you can look at that amount of lines and find what's wrong! :o impressive!
[20:23] <desperate_joe> still updating
[20:24] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Let;s get rid of the duplicate entry, when the 'update' completes; show the channel -> cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit , tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | pastebinit <- .
[20:25] <desperate_joe> it still is updating
[20:25] <Penagwin> Does anyone have experience with binding keys?
[20:25] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: No hurry, we have lot's of time to do this right .
[20:25] <Guest13193> What NickServ-?
[20:26] <geoffmcc>  /ignore -channels #ubuntu * JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS
[20:26] <Guest13193> You failed to identify in time for the nickname varun_

[20:26] <Bashing-om> Guest13193:  #freenode.net
[20:28] <j4s0nmchr1st0s> Is there a program to show memory usage in detail?
[20:28] <desperate_joe> ok... updatee is done, however, there are so many lines, the terminal is not allowing me to scroll back to the absolute beginning
[20:31] <desperate_joe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9519739/
[20:31] <desperate_joe> this is the partial update
[20:32] <k1l_> j4s0nmchr1st0s: system monitor
[20:32] <k1l_> j4s0nmchr1st0s: or (h)top in cli
[20:32] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Do terminal command -> sudo apt-get update | pastebinit <- this will redirect the output to a file @ /paste.ubuntu.com/ , You will not have to copy paste anything. Just pass the resulting URL back to us .
[20:32] <desperate_joe> do i still do the upgrade now or go directly to that other one cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list?
[20:36] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Small steps is all my little mond can cope with. So far there is " W: GPG error: https://download.01.org trusty InRelease: " We will get to that now. So yes, let's see what is in "sources.list And sources.list.d " as per my last . We fix and go on .
[20:37] <desperate_joe> i tried your command (with the pastebin) but terminal says i have not installed it... do i need to install first?
[20:37] <krishnaghchaitan> desperate_joe: go to this website copy the key and paste it in a file and run this command "sudo apt-key add key1" where key1 is the name of the file where you have copied the public key and the website is http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&fingerprint=on&search=0xA902DDA375E52366
[20:38] <krishnaghchaitan> desperate_joe i think you tried to install some intel packages and you weren't able to
[20:39] <ehouse> wc
[20:40] <desperate_joe> @krish: i tried to link to your page, but it says it does not exist, i am being redirected to a page from my provider
[20:41] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: I assure you the link is valid . copy and paste the link for best results .
[20:43] <desperate_joe> ok now i got through, first it was a page from my provider saying that it didn't exist :s
[20:44] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: In my IRC client (irssi) I double click on the link ( that highlights and copies to clipboard ) and in the adress bar of my web browser a middle click of the mouse copies the link .
[20:45] <krishnaghchaitan> i use chatzilla and the links are highlighted when i click the link it automatically loads...
[20:45] <desperate_joe> ok, hold on - i'm still a bit behind - http://paste.ubuntu.com/9519931/
[20:45] <desperate_joe> and what exactly do i copy from that page? title as well, or only the block with letters and numbers?
[20:47] <krishnaghchaitan> you are using apt-get on two terminals as one is using this program the others cant check if running any apt-get commands or updating apps
[20:47] <j4s0nmchr1st0s> k1l_: Is there something with a better gui like color coded blocks used in disk defragment?
[20:48] <desperate_joe> i have copied it into a textfile onto my desktop... would you be so kind as to write down how to write down the command so that the terminal can find it
[20:48] <yaknow> what is the italin help channel?
[20:48] <k1l_> !it | yaknow
[20:48] <yaknow> thanks
[20:48] <k1l_> j4s0nmchr1st0s: cli or gui?
[20:48] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: ^^, I assure you the command " sudo apt-get update | pastebinit " is valid for your reassurance see mine : http://paste.ubuntu.com/9519957/ .
[20:49] <j4s0nmchr1st0s> k1l_: it doesn't have to be built on X deps to make a GUI
[20:49] <desperate_joe> @bash: did you look at my pastebin? i don't know why, but it didn't do anything
[20:49] <yaknow> is there a kernel fixer?
[20:50] <j4s0nmchr1st0s> I want to see a map of what is reserved space and what is used and which chips it is located on etc.
[20:50] <desperate_joe> i even copied the command for you to verify if i entered it correctly
[20:50] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Yes I looked at your link, and krishnaghchaitan ^^ did explain the cirumstances .

[21:06] <Ricky_ubun> https://askubuntu.com/questions/561409/im-having-trouble-installing-ubuntu
[21:06] <Ricky_ubun> Can someone help me out, please
[21:06] <squinty> lionrouge:  might want to try booting a previous kernel from the Grub boot menu...  see if that gets you into your regular desktop.
[21:06] <desperate_joe> while it is till running, i have a general question: does anyone have experience with running Netflix in Ubuntu 14.04?
[21:07] <desperate_joe> *still
[21:08] <xangua> desperate_joe: you can officially get netflix to work, you just need a system up to date and Google Chrome, not chromium browser
[21:09] <lionrouge> squinty: thanks for your advice, but all previous kernels were deleted while update
[21:10] <desperate_joe> i may have read something about a glitch in the system and that it was possible to get netflix for free using ubuntu: is that true or just an urban legend, or is what i am talking about illegal, and can not be discussed here therefor?
[21:10] <malgorath> Is there anything special I need to do to install 14.04.1 LTS in a dual boot with windows 7?
[21:10] <squinty> lionrouge:  did you delete them?  if no, then afaik they should still be there
[21:11] <lionrouge> squinty: i was asked if i want to delete some packages and old kernels among them I accepted.
[21:11] <desperate_joe> bashing? still there?
[21:12] <guntbert> lionrouge: yes, but one should still be kept
[21:12] <squinty> malgorath:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI  for a start to see if anything is applicable to your situation
[21:13] <squinty> lionrouge:  might want to check anyways. seems funny that all older would get deleted.
[21:13] <desperate_joe> @bash: still some problems
[21:14] <Ricky_ubun_> hey I'm having problems installing Ubuntu
[21:14] <squinty> desperate_joe:  the legality issues would be OT here for sure
[21:14] <Ricky_ubun_> can someone help me please
[21:14] <squinty> Ricky_ubun:  just state your problem and if someone can help they will reply
[21:16] <Chuck_Norris> !ask | Ricky_ubun_
[21:16] <Ricky_ubun_> Chuck_Norris: https://askubuntu.com/questions/561409/im-having-trouble-installing-ubuntu
[21:18] <desperate_joe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9520261/
[21:18] <desperate_joe> @bash... have a look at this after i updated again, like you advised
[21:18] <k1l_> Ricky_ubun_: not everyone will click on links in here. if you state your issue with informations more people can try to help
[21:19] <malgorath> Ricky_ubun_: Most people want to have to do as little as possible to figure out your problem, asking them to do things like look at links or guess at your issue before you even state the problem is just asking for more problems.
[21:19] <pers3us> Ricky_ubun_: I don't see any error in the link you posted. Explain in detail
[21:19] <Ricky_ubun_> I'm trying to install Ubuntu. The disk loads up fine , I click install go through 3-4 steps it asks me if I want to install Ubuntu alongside my windows I say yes. Then an error come which looks like: http://i.imgsafe.org/4199a37.jpg I've checked my ios image hash, and my cd hash both are fine. Also tried loading the image onto another CD it is giving me the exact same problem. Next steps? This is the latest version with LTS.
[21:20] <Ricky_ubun_> pers3us: well nothing gets downloaded that message just pops up and the disk ejects then the system reboots
[21:20] <squinty> desperate_joe:  first you have a precise repo included with the normal trusty repo's (not a good idea)
[21:21] <mindless_chaos> Well I don't know why it happened, but for what ever reason updating the kernel killed X. Seems something happened to fglrx module for the catalyst. I finally got it back. So if anyone has the same issues, this is how I got it back.
[21:21] <jetro> squinty, I was able to fix grub, but when I go to a previous version of the kernel (I went to 'Advanced Options for Ubuntu' and selected 3.13.0-40) I still get the same issue unfortunately, any ideas?
[21:21] <mindless_chaos> I forced installed the catalyst driver over top
[21:21] <mindless_chaos> then I did atp-get -f install
[21:21] <desperate_joe> @squinty... have no idea what you mean by that
[21:21] <squinty> Ricky_ubun_:  you need to expand on "nothing gets downloaded..."  do you mean installed?
[21:21] <mindless_chaos> and it seemed to fix it
[21:22] <Ricky_ubun_> squinty: yes that message pops up the disk ejects and the system reboots
[21:22] <pers3us> Ricky_ubun_: Which cd/mode of installation did you choose? The image is after something has already happened.
[21:22] <squinty> Ricky_ubun_:  reboots to what?
[21:23] <pmp6nl> Hello, I just logged into my Ubuntu 12.10 install (old I know) and all of the passwords saved under "passwords and keys" are gone... just disappeared. Any idea how to get them back? Thanks
[21:23] <pers3us> squinty: Looks like something went wrong in boot up for Ricky_ubun_ .. what do you think?
[21:23] <Ricky_ubun_> squinty: to the normal process of starting up..the whole system restarts and windows opens back up
[21:24] <Ricky_ubun_> pers3us: I choose to download it alongside windows
[21:25] <squinty> desperate_joe:  are you in the desktop where you are having problems?  if so start Software and Updates > Other Software > and disable both google and steampowered entries.  if two list you can also delete one of each.  you should really delete the precise entery imho too
[21:26] <pers3us> Ricky_ubun_: You put ubuntu CD while running windows, and you chose to install alongside windows?
[21:27] <desperate_joe> @squinty: ok i see a steam and a same line but saying source code, which one should i click?
[21:27] <Ricky_ubun_> pers3us: sorry, no, I restarted my computer booted up the trial pressed install went through the steps (install updates, 3rd party software and all that) then I clicked install alongside windows and continue then that black screen showed up
[21:27] <squinty> Ricky_ubun_:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting   see if boot-repair solves the problem.  if you install went ok (which afaict it did) then maybe the grub got overlooked or misinstalled
[21:28] <squinty> desperate_joe:  unless you are doing programming/compiling your own you don't need the source code
[21:28] <desperate_joe> and actually looking at that list, i see i have duplicates
[21:28] <pers3us> squinty: Won't it say there is an error while installing, if there is one?
[21:29] <squinty> desperate_joe:  personally i would delete or disable them both
[21:29] <pers3us> squinty: I mean grub?
[21:29] <squinty> pers3us: not necessarily.   ie   /dev/sda   verses  /dev/sda1   both are valid but the second may cause problems
[21:31] <desperate_joe> if i per your advice disable such a line, what does that mean? the program does not work anymore, or is it more on the updating side of things that i am looking at?
[21:31] <squinty> Ricky_ubun_:  btw, including the 3rd party/updates when installing seems to make some problems for installers.  recommended is not to include them but update etc after the main installation has finished
[21:31] <gino_> call of duty
[21:32] <streulma> Lenovo, is it good for Ubuntu ?
[21:32] <Ricky_ubun_> okay squinty
[21:32] <Ricky_ubun_> for some reason my tray is now jammed to
[21:32] <Ricky_ubun_> -_-
[21:32] <squinty> desperate_joe:  all it does is stop those urls being included when you run sudo apt-get update (which downloads a listing of all the files that can be installed or updated)
[21:33] <jetro> hey guys, I updated ubuntu 14.04 and now after logging in everything just freezes, I tried loading a previous kernel same thing, any one experience this problem with a recent 14.04 upgrade?
[21:33] <desperate_joe> so you suggested deleting the steam ones, and what is your opinion about the ones i have in double? delete just one of them, or even the double ones have a function?
[21:33] <jetro> I think it might have to do with my nvidia graphics driver since graphics became low quality at the login screen after the update
[21:34] <squinty> desperate_joe:  if you delete/disable those entries and then in terminal run  sudo apt-get update   the output should not include those references any longer.
[21:34] <desperate_joe> ok, that i understood, so there is no harm in disabling all the ones i have i double?
[21:34] <desperate_joe> *in
[21:35] <streulma> maybe daftykins knows more ?
[21:35] <squinty> desperate_joe:  as mentioned before if not programming or compiling programs yourself, then the "source" repo's are needed.  I will have to scroll back to see your link again...
[21:36] <daftykins> what do i know?
[21:37] <streulma> daftykins: we said before that HP was bad computer for Ubuntu and Macbook was experimental
[21:38] <streulma> daftykins I would know if Lenovo is good
[21:38] <squinty> desperate_joe:  hmmm... you seem to have both amd64 and i386 both (not sure if that is normal for google chrome or not)  maybe someone else knows
[21:38] <daftykins> streulma: pick a model and look it up online. i think the main mistake is trying to get something 'too new' - or if you really love Linux, why not try one of the brands that sell Linux compatible systems direct?
[21:39] <desperate_joe> squinty> desperate_joe:  hmmm... you seem to have both amd64 and i386 both (not sure if that is normal for google chrome or not)  maybe someone else knows
[21:39] <lionrouge> exit
[21:39] <Bashing-om> squinty: desperate_joe I run google-chrome on a 64 bit AMD board . What file would you, squinty, like to see ?
[21:41] <squinty> Bashing-om:  he has both i386 and amd64 listed in his sources list (output in one of his pastes)  doesn't seem normal  or is that normal for google chrome
[21:41] <desperate_joe> i am in the software&updates\ other software, but i am not seeing any 386 nor amd64 listed in this list
[21:43] <squinty> desperate_joe:  what I was refering to is your paste showing the output of sudo apt-get update
[21:43] <Bashing-om> squinty: Beats me as of this time .. This " deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main " is all that is required for a source .
[21:43] <desperate_joe> ah, ok
[21:43] <desperate_joe> should i run it again?
[21:44] <squinty> Bashing-om:  forgot I had chrome installed and yes same here in mine.  thanks :)
[21:45] <squinty> desperate_joe: are you using 64bit (amd64) or 32 bit (i386) ubuntu installation?  disable the version you don't have installed.
[21:45] <ricky_ubunnn> squinty: hey, I just tried to install again w/o 3rd party stuff, same issue
[21:45] <ricky_ubunnn> squinty: should I try 32 bit?
[21:46] <desperate_joe> 64
[21:46] <desperate_joe> and how to disable?
[21:47] <ponA> hey guys, i tried to setup a raid5 array of 5 disks, now all the disks are present in the "disks" gui but it says the raid is degraded, one disk is missing
[21:47] <adrian_1908> I have a folder /media/root that I never noticed before. Does anyone know if this is normal? When I click it i get "permission denied".
[21:47] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Remove all our doubts and post back the result of terminal command -> uname -a <- which will show the kernel you are booting .
[21:49] <ponA> the array should also be encrypted, but i cant unlock it

[21:49] <ricky_ubunnn> squinty: I think you were grub might be broken
[21:49] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Yepper, that is 64 bits, no doubt . squinty .
[21:50] <squinty> ricky_ubunnn:  might want to try boot repair then
[21:50] <andrew_> Can anyone help me with something
[21:50] <andrew_> Can anyone help me with something
[21:50] <xangua> !ask | andrew_
[21:50] <squinty> !ask | andrew_
[21:51] <compdoc> you need cash?
[21:51] <compdoc> clothing?
[21:51] <andrew_> k thx
[21:51] <malgorath> Seems more like an impatient 9 year old ... maybe he needs help with his letter to santa
[21:52] <compdoc> santa already knows what you want
[21:52] <Goldwing> LOL
[21:52] <malgorath> why do I think that made santa sound naughty
[21:52] <xangua> !ot
[21:53] <andrew_> im trying to open an xbox file and it says permission denied any idas  ?
[21:53] <malgorath> andrew_: thats OT here
[21:54] <andrew_> malgorath, what is OT?
[21:55] <malgorath> Off-Topic, aka not allowed here.
[21:55] <andrew_> k
[21:56] <squinty> desperate_joe:  did a bit more checking and it would appear that apt-get does indeed check both i386 and amd64 repo's for google chrome.... so you should be good to go on that matter.
[21:57] <desperate_joe> ok, so i unmark all my doubles and the steam ones then?
[21:58] <ricky_ubunnn> squinty: I get invaid option --y when i do sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && (boot-repair &)
[21:58] <squinty> desperate_joe:  see my output  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9520670/   both are included
[21:59] <squinty> desperate_joe:  only need to do the steam ones.  check to see if there is a trusty repo for it
[22:02] <ricky_ubunnn> squinty: repairedit, hopefully it works now !!
[22:03] <squinty> ricky_ubunnn:  ok good luck :)
[22:03] <andrew_> I tried to open an xbox file and it says permission denied any ideas  ?
[22:03] <desperate_joe> http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ , http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ (twice the same, and binary) and then http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ (source) only steam i have
[22:04] <desperate_joe> so, unmark all three?
[22:04] <malgorath> !ot | andrew_
[22:04] <SuperEddy> SUPEREDDY HAS ARRIVED!
[22:04] <desperate_joe> sorry to ask so many times to confirm, it's because i'm not that secure and can't afford a non working pc the next comming weeks
[22:05] <bekks> SuperEddy: Stop spamming please.
[22:05] <SuperEddy> !ops | ban me!
[22:05] <pmp6nl> Hello, I just logged into my Ubuntu 12.10 install (old I know) and all of the passwords saved under "passwords and keys" are gone... just disappeared. Any idea how to get them back? Thanks
[22:05] <Ben64> desperate_joe: only if you don't want steam anymore i suppose
[22:05] <andrew_> I tried to open an file and it says permission denied any ideas  ?
[22:06] <Ben64> andrew_: pastebin the output of "ls -l /path/to/file; file /path/to/file"
[22:06] <SuperEddy> andrew_, go away
[22:06] <squinty> desperate_joe: (source) means to download the source files for either programming studies or compiling oneself etc etc... you don't really need that if you are not involved in that area.  you should disable any reference to steam though until you have check to see if the is a trusty repository (you are using a precise repository right now)
[22:06] <Ben64> pmp6nl: 12.10 is long since unsupported in this channel
[22:06] <andrew_> Ben64, thx
[22:07] <pmp6nl> Ben64, ok, but I can't upgrade until I find the passwords. Where are they saved?
[22:07] <SuperEddy> andrew_, so please go away and upgrade your ubuntu version to a supported one and dont fucking come back until you do
[22:07] <Ben64> !ops
[22:07] <SuperEddy> yay!
[22:07] <desperate_joe> ok, there goes the steam entries
[22:07] <Ben64> SuperEddy: you're the AT&T of people
[22:08] <desperate_joe> thank you all for your endless patience
[22:08] <SuperEddy> Ben64, your going to hell unless you repent
[22:08] <SuperEddy> nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[22:09] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Now, does " sudo apt-get update " run clean ?

[22:10] <desperate_joe> first line: no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory"
[22:10] <malgorath> pmp6nl: you just need to back up your data that you don't have stored in a cloud and reinstall
[22:11] <squinty> desperate_joe:  might be good to pastebin the command and output on that error
[22:11] <pmp6nl> malgorath, planning on doing that once I can figure out where key files are saved so I can make sure I have a backup of them before upgrading. seems odd they randomly disappeared
[22:12] <desperate_joe> and still ign at many lines instead of hit and also: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9520825/
[22:12] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Humm .. We best look and see what the source(s) are . 1) cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit . Then we look at 2) .
[22:12] <malgorath> pmp6nl: easiest way is just tar your entire /home/username/ file up and put it on a usb or a dvd if you can
[22:13] <desperate_joe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9520841/
[22:13] <desperate_joe> and that's the complete list
[22:14] <pmp6nl> malgorath, I have many backups, just trying to find server keys so I dont run into any problems after a fresh install
[22:14] <desperate_joe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9520842/ and this is your command
[22:14] <squinty> desperate_joe:  or see if you have duplicate chrome entries in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list and /etc/apt/sources.list    use your file manager to open them
[22:16] <Chuck_Norris> desperate_joe: uname -m

[22:17] <someone117> can anyone help open a locked file it says that permission denied
[22:18] <Chuck_Norris> desperate_joe: sudo rm -f /var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_chrome_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_Packages && sudo apt-get update
[22:18] <bekks> someone117: Which file exactly?
[22:18] <squinty> desperate_joe:  you need to click on the file names (which are in different directories) so that their contents are displayed in your text editor.
[22:18] <someone117> the file is data0001
[22:19] <bekks> someone117: And whats the full path to it?
[22:19] <bekks> someone117: Wnad what do you want to do with it?
[22:19] <desperate_joe> ok @squinty ... and also what do i have to do: @chuck or @squinty or both?
[22:20] <someone117> wont let me paste it ?
[22:20] <someone117> i want to edit it
[22:20] <bekks> someone117: And whats the full path to it?
[22:21] <squinty> desperate_joe:  not sure why he posted that.  might want to ask him.  personally I would check for *duplicate* entries (as stated in error message)
[22:21] <someone117> the path way is '/media/andrew/42A1-23CE/Xbox360'
[22:21] <foxlet> 6742
[22:21] <desperate_joe> according to the program meld dif viewer: all files are duplicates (or at least the names) - don't know about content
[22:21] <bekks> someone117: How do you try to access it?
[22:22] <desperate_joe> all the files in one directory i have also in the other, and none other
[22:22] <motdd> hi
[22:22] <motdd> i looking for vps cpanel alternative
[22:22] <someone117> right click and open with text editor
[22:22] <desperate_joe> @chuck: gratefull for the tips, but can you tell me what it does... ?
[22:23] <Ben64> someone:  pastebin the output of "ls -l /path/to/file; file /path/to/file"
[22:23] <Ben64> someone117: ^

[22:24] <desperate_joe> forgot to say for whom: @squit: according to the program meld dif viewer: all files are duplicates (or at least the names) - don't know about content
[22:24] <Guest67819> Hi all.  Probably where your issue is
[22:24] <squinty> desperate_joe:  from a quick google it would appear that "no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory" is not related directly to apt-get (could be a Samba buglet or...)

[22:25] <nully> s/page/contents/
[22:26] <desperate_joe> @nully/chuck/squit: so deleting that chached apt-get will hopefully resolve? is it possible to cause greater problems?
[22:26] <Bashing-om> Guest67819: How bout the file manager ? Open two windows and drag and drop files between them ?
[22:26] <Ben64> desperate_joe: are you doing "sudo apt-get update" after messing around with sources?
[22:26] <Chuck_Norris> Guest67819: cp -rp /home/USER/ /media/HARDDRIVE/backup_folder/
[22:27] <Guest67819> Bashing-om, I tried that, it said some pictures weren't allowed to be moveed.
[22:27] <acmeraptor> can i type now mr. roBOTo?
[22:27] <desperate_joe> @ben64 i have no idea if i was "messing around" with sources
[22:27] <Guest67819> Chuck_Norris, it told me /media/HARDDRIVE wasn't a directory
[22:27] <someone117> Ben64, how do i pastebin
[22:27] <Ben64> desperate_joe: thats all you've been doing and wanting to do since you joined the channel
[22:27] <bekks> !pastebin | someone117
[22:28] <Chuck_Norris> Guest67819: you gotta replace HARDDRIVE by your acual hardrive, and backup_folder by an existing folder inside that hard drive
[22:29] <Chuck_Norris> actual*, Guest67819, paste:  ls /media/
[22:29] <Guest67819> Chuck_Norris, I did. The problem is it's actually /media/ TOSHIBA EXT/folder
[22:29] <squinty> desperate_joe:  cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep -i chrome    see if that returns anything
[22:29] <Guest67819> Chuck_Norris, it's getting confused with the space in the name.

[22:31] <mason_> test
[22:31] <someone117> bekks, i want to edit it
[22:32] <Guest67819> Chuck_Norris, could I do cp /home/USER /Media/TOSHIBA\ EXT/chuck
[22:32] <desperate_joe> @squint: copy/pasted it, but it just did nothing... no text, no error, nothing
[22:32] <bekks> someone117: You said that before. What exactly do you want to edit in a 500MB sized file?
[22:32] <squinty> desperate_joe:  cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list  should only list deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main  in it's output.
[22:33] <desperate_joe> it listed absolutely nothing
[22:33] <someone117> bekks,  I wanted to edit the 270 kb
[22:33] <desperate_joe> HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep -i chrome
[22:33] <desperate_joe> HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$
[22:33] <Chuck_Norris> Guest67819: best way is with "r" and "p" flags that "r" will cp folders recurvibely and "p" will keep files permisions and metadata intact
[22:33] <bekks> someone117: Can you please tell us WHAT you want to edit in that file?
[22:34] <bekks> desperate_joe: grep -i chrome /etc/apt/sources.list :)
[22:34] <squinty> desperate_joe:  yes ok  but try the other command too
[22:34] <squinty> bekks:  the way i posted works fine
[22:35] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Check your spelling syntax, My output: cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list >> deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main . Yours should be similar ( duplicated ? )
[22:35] <bekks> squinty: It works fine, but it is a redundant use of cat.
[22:35] <someone117> bekks, i want to paste other information in it
[22:35] <bekks> someone117: So you actually want to hack your Xbox game, dont you?
[22:35] <desperate_joe> i did the grep -i now and same nothing
[22:36] <Guest67819> Chuck_Norris, sudo cp -rp /media/19eb229a-cf7a-42ed-b11b-5adab1eea420/home/matt /media/TOSHIBA\ EXT/chuck seems to be working!
[22:36] <squinty> desperate_joe:  pastebin the output of  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list  please
[22:37] <Guest67819> Chuck_Norris, well it looked like it was. Now it appears to be not copying anything. No erros from Terminal either
[22:37] <desperate_joe> ok, i copy pasted the @bash one, and it gave me a list
[22:38] <someone117> bekks, no i want to modify it ..

[22:39] <someone117> bekks, can you point me in the direction?
[22:39] <Ricky_mu> squinty: hey man, I repaired grub that was not the issue ether
[22:39] <bekks> someone117: No, it is just illegal to do so.
[22:40] <malgorath> someone117: as you are asking somene to help you break a software package which is illegal in many countries, I'd suggest you end talking about it right now.
[22:40] <Ricky_mu> squinty: so far I repaired gurb. checked the md5 for cd & image , tried installing w/o 3rd party stuff and tried it with another disc

[22:41] <bekks> desperate_joe: Did you read what I wrote? Obviously you didnt. I am actively refusing to help him breaking his xbox game. So please stop those irrational accusations right now.
[22:42] <Ricky_mu> can someone help me please
[22:42] <someone117> bekks, oh i did not know
[22:43] <malgorath> !ask | Ricky_mu

[22:46] <bekks> someone117: What are "MC maps"? And from where do you get that program?
[22:47] <Ben64> bekks: its a program used to mod xbox stuff, MC is probably minecraft

[22:51] <tnkhanh> hi I want to uninstall everything related to qt on my machine
[22:51] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Wow, a lot of 3rd parry stuff ! .. I see a lot of duplications beside just google-chrome. All the sources I have checked are still valid in 14.04 - that is a good thing. Time to get familiar with a text editor and fix these sources.
[22:51] <malgorath> someone117: its the same thing I told you 1 hour ago when you were in here under another name asking the same OT things
[22:52] <desperate_joe> so, @bash what do you suggest?
[22:52] <someone117> bekks, how is helping someone to installing a program OT
[22:53] <bekks> someone117: Read what malgorath just told you, please.
[22:53] <mlc> hi, is there an apache king to explain the conf-available vs sites-available?
[22:53] <ikonia> mlc: what do you mean explain it
[22:53] <Ben64> mlc: kind of self explanatory... one is for conf files... other is for sites
[22:53] <ikonia> mlc: one are configuration varibles, one configures indibidual virtual hosts (sites)
[22:53] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: Prior to a editor ( rather in this instance) let's remove files . Let me have a bit more time to review what we are going to do .
[22:54] <someone117> bekks, i read it now what
[22:54] <bekks> someone117: Now I am resting your case.
[22:55] <someone117> k
[22:55] <mlc> hi, thanks, just understand the difference beetween these two ways of accessing to a ressource
[22:55] <Ben64> mlc: one is for sites... the other is not sites. what are you trying to do?
[22:57] <ValF> Hi there, I'm trying to PXE boot ubuntu 12.04 image. I got it to work with CentOs but I am using Mellanox network cards and for Ubuntu, driver is not included in the initrd. Tried to add it but no luck so far and so , i can't get any network to proceed with the installation. Any initrd / kernel expert around here ? :)
[22:58] <ikonia> you need to add it to the initrd to get it post the pxe boot
[22:58] <ikonia> it's that simple
[22:58] <mlc> for example i'm using owncloud, i can access it by "owncloud.my-domain" with sites enabled of access by "my-domain/owncloud" with conf-enabled
[22:58] <ikonia> mlc: ??? what are yo on about
[22:58] <mlc> sorry, not clear
[22:59] <ikonia> mlc: what are you actually asking ?
[22:59] <mlc> not sure... ;-)
[23:00] <ValF> Yeah, I guess I need to find some Mellanox support then, Ubuntu loads my modules but doesn't recognise those cards as NICs
[23:00] <ikonia> ValF: what part of the process does it fail at
[23:00] <ikonia> that will tell you where the problem sits
[23:01] <mlc> thanks for trying to answer, i'll try to explain
[23:02] <ValF> It does not fail, that's my problem. I see my devices (lspci) but not as network cards.. If I install the OS completely, I can bring up those interfaces, but from the initrd with the same modules I can't..
[23:02] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: I bet the "duplicates" I see are from backup files. I will peovide a different command to see what we are working with.
[23:02] <ikonia> ValF: if it doesn't fail, what's the problem
[23:02] <desperate_joe> ok
[23:02] <ValF> Can't bring up my interfaces from busybox in the installer
[23:02] <ikonia> ValF: so it fails
[23:03] <ikonia> ValF: what point i nthe process does it fail
[23:03] <ValF> nothing in syslog, it just fails to get network, which is normal because it only finds eth0 which isnt plugged to anything
[23:03] <ikonia> ValF: at what point in the process does it fail
[23:04] <Bashing-om> desperate_joe: I understand from the PM that you need to continue this at a later time. We can do that, I am on here - Lord willing - each evening .
[23:05] <desperate_joe> i will try a later day this week to continue this conversation then ... thanks already for all the patience to all who helped out ;)
[23:05] <desperate_joe> good night!
[23:05] <bekks> ValF: Did you try the Ubuntu server ISO?
[23:07] <tnkhanh> Hi I want to uninstall Qt from my machine
[23:07] <ikonia> tnkhanh: ok, what's the problem
[23:07] <tnkhanh> how to get rid of Qt libs in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
[23:07] <ValF> Server boots > gets dhcp for pxe boot > load initrd > load modules > installer tries to configure network > no interface available besides eth0 so it tries on that interface but dhclient fails to get an IP since it's not the right interface. At that stage, using CLI, I can see my modules loaded, I can see that my mellanox cards went up in the syslog, but "ip link" doesn't list my infiniband interfaces
[23:07] <ikonia> tnkhanh: open the package manager, search for QT and click uninstall/remove
[23:07] <tnkhanh> ikonia: thanks. I'll try
[23:08] <ikonia> ValF: ok that sounds like it's the kernel, not initrd, as at that point the kernel should have booted
[23:08] <ValF> and bekks , yep I tried the server iso as it is the version I want to install anyway but I only tried 12.04, not trusty
[23:08] <bekks> ValF: So try 14.04 then.
[23:10] <ValF> bekks, will give it a go but unfortunately, I will have to get 12.04 working as my application runs on 12.04 only at the moment. That wouldn't be a bad thing to work on upgrading it to trusty  instead. I will let you know how it went if you want ;)
[23:13] <tweak> hi everyone. having several problems since install; i've changed the login screen with ubuntu tweak but it doesnt actually change, my swap does not mount on startup, i have other drives set to mount at startup and they never automount despite being clicked on, etc, etc. I'm wondering if this is all due to encrypting my home folder or what i am doing wrong
[23:14] <ikonia> tweak: how are you checking if your swap is mounted
[23:14] <tweak> ikonia: swapon -s
[23:14] <ikonia> tweak: and what happens whan you maunally swap it on
[23:15] <tweak> ikonia: it seems to work once i do it manually
[23:15] <Guest1122> hi
[23:15] <ikonia> tweak: is swap encypted
[23:15] <tweak> ikonia: it is, or at least it is supposed to be.
[23:15] <ikonia> check
[23:15] <ikonia> thats going to be a factor
[23:16] <tweak> ikonia: well it is called cryptswap1 once mounted
[23:16] <ikonia> so it sounds to me from what you've said your not getting your disks decrypted at the right time before boot
[23:17] <tweak> ikonia: ahhh ok. it's not necessarily manditory that encryption be on, i just thought i would try it but if it causes all these issues, how would i remove encryption?
[23:17] <ikonia> tweak: an argumentative topic - personally, I'd just re-install
[23:18] <tweak> ikonia: okay i probably will just do that then. does it sound like the encryption is the cause of my issues >_>
[23:18] <tnkhanh> Hi there! What happens if I mount a disk to a working folder?
[23:19] <ikonia> it mounts over the top of it
[23:19] <tnkhanh> so anything in my old folder will be lost?
[23:19] <ikonia> no
[23:19] <ikonia> it will be hidden while the disk is mounted
[23:20] <tnkhanh> ikonia: ok thanks :D
[23:20] <tweak> ikonia: so does it sound like encryption is the cause of all my issues? should fix if i just re-install?
[23:20] <tweak> (without encryption of course)
[23:21] <ikonia> tweak: based on what you've said yes, but we've not really done any investigation,
[23:21] <ikonia> if you don't need encryption, it adds an element of complexity for no reason
[23:21] <tnkhanh> ikonia: wow you're right. I just freaked out!
[23:22] <tweak> ikonia: okay. this install is fairly vanilla anyway. i shall try a reinstall and see how that fares~ if not i'll pop back in later. thank you very much for your time & patience xD
[23:38] <eddy> helllo
[23:39] <eddy> is there a program to run windows exe on linux xubuntu?.
[23:39] <k1l_> !wine | eddy
[23:39] <eddy> thanks
[23:42] <Vadim_> [23:43] <eddy> 2packs Wine Windows-programmalader  end Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (meta-package)
[23:43] <eddy> choose?
[23:49] <tnkhanh> eddy: u can use virtualbox which create a virtual machine on your computer
[23:49] <tnkhanh> eddy: I think you need a windows installation disk tho
[23:50] <xpro256> i like a lot the unity window manager, it is very similar to aqua mac os x
[23:54] <tnkhanh> xpro256: have u tried gnome or kde?
[23:54] <agent_white> I enjoy the i3 window manager, it is similar to nothing I had experienced before.
[23:54] <agent_white> :D
[23:55] <xpro256> tnkhanh: yes i've tried
[23:55] <xpro256> i like gnome too
[23:55] <xpro256> i have to see the i3
[23:56] <xpro256> kde4 i think it is a bit heavy, i liked more kde3
[23:59] <explodingmango> Hi, I've got a wondering about unofficial/untrusted PPAs. So yeah, I know you should avoid them when possible and update manually from the software's official website instead. Problem is, then you aren't notified about new versions. My question is, is there some way to use an untrusted PPA to merely notify you about new versions of your installed software instead of actually updating them?

[02:15] <penguin42> bug 1085751 triggers on 3.5.0-030500-generic #201207211835 and 3.5.1-030501-generic \201208091310 but not 3.5.0-19-generic #30  - where to go next?

[02:16] <penguin42> is that an indication it's probably something we added - or is there an existing prebuilt package closer to 3.5.0-19-generic #30 I can try?
[12:29] <apw> penguin42, in the unlikely event you read the archives, that is a 3.5.7 based kernel (the -19 one) so you would want to look later in the 3.5 stable series

[21:23] <penguin42> I can see there are a skipmodule=true  - but have I screwed up earlier?
[21:45] <penguin42> ohhh I see - that's why it tells you to *replace* the previous head entry on the changelog
