[00:01] <Fieldy> hello, how can I configure a custom firewall (iptables) command to be run after the rest of the firewall has been set up? I'd like it to be applied regardless if someone has logged in or not
[00:02] <Dr_Willis> Fieldy:  command in /etc/rc.local should do it.
[00:02] <Fieldy> Dr_Willis: thank you
[00:02] <jrib> Fieldy: what do you mean by "the rest of the firewall"?
[00:02] <Dr_Willis> but there is some iptables file that gets ran at boot time. so im not sure why you are doing it this way
[00:02] <MoPac> nutman: under that last tab, "additional drivers", it may show what video driver you're using
[00:03] <Fieldy> jrib: the command would be run after the other rules have been run (by whatever they're run by)
[00:03] <Fieldy> Dr_Willis: well, whichever gets the job done, i'm okay with editing the main rules (if there are any)
[00:03] <jrib> Fieldy: I don't know what you mean... there aren't any other rules by default...
[00:03] <Fieldy> i show a lot of rules with iptables -L -n -v
[00:04] <Dr_Willis> Fieldy:  on a defaul ubuntu install. theres no firewall rules
[00:04] <jrib> Fieldy: then you've likely added them
[00:04] <Fieldy> anyway I had already added it to rc.local, and rebooted, let's see wehat happens
[00:04] <Dr_Willis> firewall is there. but turned off/no rules basically
[00:04] <Fieldy> ah okay... shared system, another admin probably dinking with it
[00:04] <jrib> Fieldy: I would suggest you not split up your firewall configuration.  Just add it to your existing configuration
[00:04] <nutman> thanks for your help MoPac
[00:05] <Fieldy> jrib: fair point. i'll figure out how they got there in the first place (other admin)
[00:05] <Dr_Willis> !firewall
[00:05] <Fieldy> thanks folks, i'll read
[00:08] <MoPac> wilee-nilee: I've just been through the CoC, IRC Guidelines, and Supporters' Guide, and I'm wondering if you can help me find the standard of conduct that you think nutman was violating?
[00:08] <Micko113> tired to connect using teamviewer but it says connecting and just sits there
[00:10] <|JZ|> hello, would anyone know why all of the sudden ubuntu 13.04 will not boot up? .. I get a black screen with _ flashing
[00:10] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Did you install a proprietary graphic driver?
[00:10] <|JZ|> last thing I remember was it needed to restart for updates
[00:11] <|JZ|> I had the installed the intel driver a while ago worked fine
[00:11] <wilee-nilee> !nomodeset | |JZ|
[00:12] <Guest65066> what is a typical installation size for ubuntu? looks like it takes up 3.2G for me!
[00:12] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Generally drives from the manufacturers do not follow kernel upgrades...etc.
[00:12] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, NO typical depends on what your use may be and if you want a sperate home.
[00:12] <|JZ|> so wilee how can I set it with nomodeset?
[00:13] <|JZ|> I need live cd?
[00:13] <Guest65066> i just want a GUI Browser, vlc, and python
[00:13] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Nope the thread gives you all the info, you can do it from the grub menu accessed by tapping shift at powering on if it does not show.
[00:13] <Guest65066> 3.1G seems to be a lot. can i trim the size somehow?
[00:14] <Guest65066> and this is a fresh installation
[00:14] <reisio> Guest65066: it's not a lot
[00:14] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, You are not familiar are you, that makes no sense.
[00:14] <Guest65066> am not familiar
[00:15] <|JZ|> I tried hitting shift from boot but it didn't load
[00:15] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, Give us your end goals with the OS it will be helpful.
[00:15] <Guest65066> i used linux long time ago - then it used to be really small. suddenly 3.1G seems tough - my goals are these -
[00:15] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Read the link.
[00:15] <failmaster> Guest65066, you may install it over netinst image and get some lightweight desktop environment
[00:15] <Guest65066> this is all i want - 1) Firefox 2) VLC and 3) python
[00:15] <wilee-nilee> I gave you detailed instructions as well. |JZ|
[00:16] <Guest65066> i chose xfce, thought it would be light
[00:16] <failmaster> Guest65066, i would go with some fluxbox/openbox
[00:16] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, You can do a minimal install from the alternative iso a net install, you just need some sort of desktop.
[00:17] <wilee-nilee> maybe I guess
[00:17] <s0m3b0dy> Hello, is there any FTPd that can run on multiple ports?
[00:18] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, The net install starts with just the ubuntu base, no X unless you choose one.
[00:18] <wilee-nilee> !alternative
[00:18] <reisio> 'minimal cd' now, right?
[00:19] <reisio> silly to discontinue something in favor of something else that's basically the same thing with a different name
[00:19] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, The bot lies, http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads
[00:19] <Guest65066> wilee-nilee, thanks - which is a lightweight desktop environment? also does the desktop environment account for a lot of space? i have xfce right now
[00:20] <wilee-nilee> Guest65066, As far as ubuntu regular desktops lxde is the lightest, also lubuntu lxde with more, but there are handfuls of alternative X environments.
[00:20] <|JZ|> I read the link ... To set kernel boot options, you must edit your grub configuration. You can do this temporarily for a single boot by entering the grub menu. If you do not get to see the grub boot menu after the bios automatically, you may have to press SHIFT key after the bios logo to get in to grub
[00:20] <|JZ|> .. I am just gettin thrown back into the black screen .. I rebooted 4 times didn't work
[00:20] <failmaster> Guest65066, aewm, *box (e.g. fluxbox, openbox)
[00:20] <Guest65066> i see thanks a lot
[00:21] <|JZ|> pressing shift is not getting me to the next step
[00:21] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Poise your finger over the shift key and start taping like there is no tomorrow as soon as you hit the power on, at least to confoirm that is not bringing up the grub menu.
[00:22] <Dr_Willis> actually i thought you just pressed and HELD the shift key
[00:23] <SuperLag> When you take a screenshot, you have the option of uploading it to zimagez.com. Can you do that with a different service? is there any way to change that?
[00:23] <|JZ|> I tapped both shifts like no tomorrow still no grub menu
[00:23] <Dr_Willis> |JZ|:  so you are never getting into the 'grub edit screen' is what you are saying
[00:23] <wilee-nilee> Dr_Willis, Maybe, however needs to be done ay times it seems earlier enough.
[00:23] <wilee-nilee> at
[00:23] <|JZ|> yeah I am not getting that
[00:23] <Dr_Willis> ive also had pc's that ignored the usb keyvboard for grub.. :) had to use a ps2 keyboard.
[00:23] <|JZ|> going to power off and retry for 5th time
[00:24] <Dr_Willis> or use the boot-repair live cd thing.. to set it to not hide grub.
[00:24] <Dr_Willis> i really really wish they wouldent hide grub by default all the time.. it makes trouble shooting that much harder
[00:25] <SuperLag> |JZ|: I've had trouble with that, myself. what if you don't tap, but hold down the Shift key?
[00:25] <wilee-nilee> Dr_Willis, He has a black screen and the good ole blinking _ and proprietary graphic drivers I think, ha rd to really tell.
[00:25] <SuperLag> |JZ|: no guarantees... I tried so many combinations of things, I don't remember which one finally worked
[00:26] <failmaster> SuperLag, you could look for custom script scenarios like there were some for nautilus a while ago i used gnome2 on gnome-look.org some of them are designed for purposes you're looking for
[00:27] <DWSR> Hey all, having an issue booting into my 12.04 LTS server install. Used the server media to partition an LVM onto a boot drive, now booting from that drive gives me "Reboot and select proper boot media"
[00:29] <|JZ|> no luck with pressing shift or holding it down
[00:29] <|JZ|> I can ctrl alt delete n restart from the black screen but that's about it
[00:29] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, I would boot a live cd and see if the partitions mount, might be something wrong, might need a fsck or some other work.
[00:30] <aj_> hello folks
[00:30] <|JZ|> going to boot from ubuntu 13.04 cd now rebooting
[00:30] <failmaster> |JZ|, can we be sure that bootloader even launches from the boot device?
[00:30] <Borreguito> Hi Friends... how can i remove  ATI Radeon  from my Toshiba Satellite ?
[00:30] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, This a standard partitioning set up no uefi or encryption?
[00:31] <|JZ|> standard ext4
[00:31] <wilee-nilee> cool
[00:31] <|JZ|> going to boot from live cd or should I attempt hd from bios?
[00:31] <failmaster> Borreguito, with soldering station
[00:32] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, You can use the per-session boot from menu outside the bios mine is f12 at powering on yours maybe different.
[00:32] <failmaster> preferably infrared one
[00:32] <Borreguito> Sorry.... the drivers for ATI RADEOn-..... i can't see my Unity menu..  failmaster
[00:32] <|JZ|> actually from hd brings me right back to bkack scrn
[00:32] <|JZ|> going to boot from live cd
[00:32] <failmaster> !radeon
[00:32] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, If  cd choose cd
[00:33] <|JZ|> booting from cd now
[00:33] <DWSR> Hey all, having an issue booting into my 12.04 LTS server install. Used the server media to partition an LVM onto a boot drive, now booting from that drive gives me "Reboot and select proper boot media"
[00:33] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, ON occaison the computer may do it from cd or usb..etc inspite of actual media
[00:34] <|JZ|> I can set the nomodeset from live cd?
[00:34] <|JZ|> or reinstall ubuntu?
[00:35] <failmaster> |JZ|, you can do that
[00:35] <|JZ|> which? failmaster
[00:35] <failmaster> |JZ|, both
[00:35] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, I would just check to start with if the partitions mount and if there are any errors shown in gparted on them
[00:35] <|JZ|> okay
[00:35] <failmaster> |JZ|, was bootloader installed in the MBR of that device?
[00:36] <DWSR> Hey all, having an issue booting into my 12.04 LTS server install. Used the server media to partition an LVM onto a boot drive, now booting from that drive gives me "Reboot and select proper boot media"
[00:36] <|JZ|> yeah it always worked
[00:36] <|JZ|> just had updated needed to restart
[00:36] <|JZ|> now I can't get inti gui
[00:36] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, If you had the grub bootloader showing you could do a nomodeset and a text boot to see errors.
[00:36] <|JZ|> I just loaded 13.04 live cd
[00:37] <|JZ|> do I click try ubuntu or install?
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> that boot-repair tool can set the options for the default grub on the installed system cant it? its been a while since ive used it
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> DWSR, If  a #ubuntu-server you might ask there as well.
[00:37] <riex> Hello everybody. Somebody here that can tell me which kind of traffic this here is: http://pastebin.com/pJU0h3d7 <- ? Please. :-)
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> Dr_Willis, yeah, that is certainly a good option. ;)
[00:38] <DWSR> wilee-nilee: I am./
[00:38] <|JZ|> do I click try ubuntu or install from livecd ?
[00:38] <wilee-nilee> DWSR, Cool, just want to see you succeed. ;)
[00:38] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Try
[00:38] <failmaster> |JZ|, you may click nothing or click "try" until you dont want to resintall it, in that case i would go through chroot environment to have a look on what might went wrong
[00:38] <failmaster> !chroot | |JZ|
[00:39] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Did you install originally this way or from windows maybe a wubi?
[00:39] <|JZ|> na
[00:39] <|JZ|> I installed from ubuntu cd
[00:39] <|JZ|> fresh install of 13.04
[00:39] <|JZ|> when it came out
[00:39] <rreed> hey guys. if i have a trojan-infected Windows 8 installation, is it logical to assume that if I log into it and create a Recovery CD, that the Recovery CD will be infected?
[00:39] <|JZ|> no windows was on pc
[00:39] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Which release?
[00:39] <failmaster> rreed, not necessary
[00:40] <|JZ|> ubuntu 13.04 x64
[00:40] <rreed> trying to get migrated completely over to 13.04, but not sure if i should bother with the USB or not.
[00:40] <wilee-nilee> rreed, I would as k in ##windows
[00:40] <rreed> failmaster, Alright. I imagine specifics are probably gonna need to be directed to ##windows.
[00:40] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, Cool thanks.
[00:40] <rreed> wilee-nilee, Heading there now :)
[00:41] <failmaster> rreed, i'm not into windows 8 but i'm not 100% sure i understood your doubts, define the "rescue cd"
[00:41] <DWSR> Hey, having an issue booting into my Ubuntu 12.04 Server install. Used an LVM, now getting "Reboot and Select proper Boot device" when trying to access the single disk in the LVM.
[00:41] <riex> Hello everybody. Somebody here that can tell me what kind of traffic this here is: http://pastebin.com/pJU0h3d7 <- ? Please. :-)
[00:42] <Dr_Willis> rreed:  i would doubt it.. that wou;ld be some impressive malware.  but id say ask in #windows - or if worried about it.. get  an official recovery ISO media
[00:43] <Borreguito> Into Windows.... .you cant use the Recovery  app at recovery partition!!!
[00:45] <trfsrfr> what is the linux version of /?
[00:45] <reisio> you mean the original version of /?
[00:45] <reisio> :p
[00:45] <reisio> it's --help
[00:45] <reisio> or -h
[00:45] <reisio> or man foo
[00:45] <FloodBot1> reisio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:45] <riex> nobody knows ?
[00:45] <reisio> riex: knows what?
[00:46] <riex> reisio: http://pastebin.com/pJU0h3d7
[00:46] <riex> what kind of traffic is that?
[00:47] <reisio> kind?
[00:47] <riex> ye
[00:47] <reisio> you might ask #networking
[00:47] <riex> TCP or UDP - ICMP?
[00:47] <riex> ;>
[00:47] <riex> I will
[00:47] <SunTsu> or create a dump file and ask wireshark
[00:47] <riex> SunTsu: great idea
[00:47] <riex> =D
[00:47] <reisio> the art of netwerk
[00:49] <selite> My graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon 5470 and Ubuntu gravely overheats because of that. Is there any other Linux OS that might work with my shitty graphics card for which there are no drivers?
[00:49] <danny4way> how come ubuntu doesn't resume what i did after battery went dead
[00:50] <danny4way> ??
[00:50] <failmaster> danny4way, due to politics on what it should do at emergency low power level
[00:50] <failmaster> probably
[00:51] <wilee-nilee> selite, Two things no swearing and for general OS info not really here, however here is a askubuntu.com with that issue addresses in some places. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=Radeon+5470
[00:51] <danny4way> so there is no way I am able to resume my ubuntu after  battery is gone dead?
[00:52] <selite> wilee-nilee: If you can help me, help me. If not, shut up.
[00:52] <danny4way> Because my laptop has very bad battery and my school has no outlet for my laptop
[00:52] <wilee-nilee> !attitude | selite
[00:52] <danny4way> It does but I have sight problem so I have to sit in the front which there is no outlet for my laptop
[00:53] <wilee-nilee> selite, I would be more than happy to call the ops, however if you can have some composure you will get help.
[00:53] <cstewart> no doubt i missed the actual problem and might be able to help
[00:53] <selite> wilee-nilee: Sorry, what are the ops?
[00:53] <wilee-nilee> selite, The moderators with the power to ban or quiet you. ;)
[00:54] <cstewart> Good evening Gents
[00:54] <rreed> cstewart, Good evening :)
[00:54] <failmaster> selite, the thing is.. all distros include the same drivers, the only difference is versions of those, maybe all of them operate with it so it overheats, but i seriously doubt that the first cause is a driver itself
[00:54] <vaskaloidis> Hey I have static IP set up on my Ubuntu 12 server through ethernet - I can ping my laptop connected to WIFI from my ubuntu server but I cannot ping the outside ethernet or my router
[00:54] <failmaster> selite, so you might wanna check the cooling subsystem
[00:55] <wilee-nilee> selite, WE try to jus in general interact here like we would face to face, general respect is all. ;)
[00:55] <selite> wilee-nilee: Alright sorry if I've offended you in any way.
[00:55] <cstewart> It could be one of two problems, more then likely DNS does /etc/resolv.conf have nameservers or are me missing a gateway in your static config
[00:55] <failmaster> selite, don't feed volunteers
[00:56] <babinlonston> dpkg installation Error how to Clear it
[00:56] <selite> failmaster: I've checked the cooling system and it works amazing with Windows 7, however, with Ubuntu it has really serious issues.
[00:56] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: I have the correct gateway set - I <IP_ADDRESS> and I can view it through a web browser on my laptop
[00:56] <wilee-nilee> selite, I'm not offended but you were on a downword spiral in several areas, just a heads up is all. ;)
[00:56] <vaskaloidis> but my server is connected to a switch which is connoted to the router cstewart so could that be the problem?
[00:56] <selite> failmaster: Even with an external cooler, the laptop simply has problems functioning due to the heat.
[00:57] <failmaster> selite, maybe it's specifics of linux driver version, however you might wanna check the default documentation related to radeon driver, e.g. opensource one or propietary and trying switching one against another
[00:57] <babinlonston> histo: dpkg error facing please help http://paste.ubuntu.com/5971857/
[00:57] <failmaster> !radeon | selite
[00:57] <cstewart> it could be but more then likely not, you can add dns-nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> for example to your static config
[00:57] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: yeah I have my router listed as a DNS server
[00:58] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: I cannot ping my router's IP address even! it says host unreachable
[00:58] <vaskaloidis> but I can ping my laptop though which is connected through WiFi
[00:58] <selite> failmaster: I've tried both the proprietary and open source drivers and neither of them work. Is my only option to buy a new laptop?
[00:58] <cstewart> ok back up you have a laptop and server or ubuntu pc on the same network
[00:59] <danny4way> Is there any way that ubuntu will shut up when battery is dead and still resume when battery is connected?
[00:59] <cstewart> laptop is over wifi and pc is connected to switch which is connected to router?
[00:59] <vaskaloidis> cstewart yes!
[00:59] <danny4way> down*
[00:59] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: I also have an extra access point contacted to the switch that the ubuntu server is on
[00:59] <failmaster> selite, besides that cooling systems in laptops are complicated in a context of whole enclosure design, so if we'll imagine there is some controller which operates main cpu fan rmps according to provide silent working and there is some thermistor behind another controller that should inform it to increase rpms according to gpu temperature
[00:59] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: but you are correct, the switch is connected to the router
[01:00] <cstewart> the switch is it a wifi / router
[01:00] <failmaster> selite, it might not work for some reason
[01:00] <reisio> selite: what's the computer make/model?
[01:00] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: no the switch is a regular switch, and I have a wireless access point connected to it
[01:00] <selite> reisio: It's a sony vaio VPCEV2H4E.
[01:00] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: the access point is plugged into the switch to one of its ethernet ports, the switch is only wired
[01:01] <danny4way> Please? Anyone? My laptop has to resume sometimes.
[01:01] <cstewart> ok but is the switch directly wired to your main internet router or are you using access point bridge
[01:02] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: my switch is running off my router - and the router is connected directly to the modem
[01:02] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: the switch is hard-wired to the router through ethernet
[01:02] <danny4way>
[01:02] <cstewart> it sounds like the switch or cable between them is faulty
[01:02] <vaskaloidis> cstewart: I am going to double check, I will be right back
[01:02] <failmaster> selite, so before buying the new one, check if it works fine under linux, it was like that in dark ages, you was choosing the appropriate hardware according to software support
[01:02] <wilee-nilee> danny4way, Your request are missing details in several areas.
[01:02] <cstewart> can you plug your laptop into the switch and see if you can ping the pc and laptop etc
[01:02] <jesusemelendezm> Dannny4way may I help you?
[01:03] <danny4way> Yes. My laptop has bad battery. So it shut downs automatically when it reaches 0%
[01:03] <failmaster> i have a problem with switching passphrase luks auth on boot to key file based, extra details: http://askubuntu.com/questions/330660/what-is-the-correct-way-to-use-key-file-luks-authorization anyone?
[01:03] <danny4way> But I want my laptop to let it shut down but I don't want to lose any information
[01:03] <wilee-nilee> danny4way, How many times have you let this happen?
[01:03] <danny4way> Is there any way Ubuntu can do that?
[01:03] <selite> failmaster: Yes, I should probably do that.Htnak you for your help.
[01:03] <danny4way> Well. Many times.
[01:04] <selite> failmaster: *thank
[01:04] <wilee-nilee> danny4way, Stop doing that it is damaging.
[01:04] <danny4way> Really?
[01:04] <hayer> Get a new battery. warrenty or buy a new one
[01:04] <reisio> shutting down at 0% is what happens with good batteries
[01:04] <wilee-nilee> danny4way, Hard shutdowns damage any OS
[01:04] <danny4way> I was like whatever  because my laptop battery is already damaged
[01:04] <reisio> potentially damage...
[01:04] <twodoo_> Hey anyone know if V2P conversion of a VM is possible? I want minimum downtime for my server
[01:04] <MrO> Folks - i just wanted to say thank you to whoever works on Ubuntu.
[01:04] <hayer> Either you do it properly or you don't do it at all.
[01:05] <reisio> twodoo_: v2p?
[01:05] <BudManz> Hi, I am trying to use my ubuntu 12.04 fileserver to backup a remote windows file system.  I have the user created and can ssh in with the credentials, but I don't know how to connect to it from windows... any help?
[01:05] <MrO> Its a fantastic piece of software and i love using it.
[01:05] <BudManz> +1 Mr0
[01:05] <wilee-nilee> linux is better tha most there, but common sense should answer this.
[01:05] <wilee-nilee> than
[01:05] <danny4way> When i first bought my laptop, it at least lasted 5 hours. Now it only lasts 30 mins or sometimes more.
[01:05] <mead|laptop> can anyone help me install a ati remote wonder plus driver ?
[01:06] <twodoo_> reisio: virtual to physical?
[01:06] <hayer> Probably some battery cells that have died. Usually heat is the #1 killer
[01:06] <danny4way> Yeah. I tried compressed air already. It helps a lot.
[01:06] <danny4way> So should I get battery replacement?
[01:06] <hayer> danny4way: When is the warrenty out?
[01:06] <danny4way> It's already out. I bought this laptop for more than 2 years
[01:07] <hayer> Then buy a new battery or salvage a battery from some other laptop
[01:07] <mead|laptop> danny4way: price the battery and compare it to the cost of what you want to upgrade to
[01:07] <danny4way> Oh I see.
[01:08] <reisio> BudManz: mount -t cifs //ip.ip.ip.ip/dir /mnt/point -o "username=foo",uid=localuser
[01:08] <danny4way> I mean my current laptop has intel core duo inside
[01:08] <danny4way> So yeah. Probably I should get a new laptop
[01:08] <DWSR> Can anyone help me with recovering GRUB on a Ubuntu 12.04 server install using LVM?
[01:08] <danny4way> I know intel core duo 2 can handle ubuntu but I just want more performance.
[01:09] <reisio> or carry a power plant around with you :p
[01:09] <twodoo_> twodoo
[01:09] <danny4way> If you recommend, tell me what is the best requirement that would run smoothly for Ubuntu for Editing, Videos and Entertainment.
[01:09] <BudManz> reisio: thanks, but I already have the linkage on the Ubuntu box set up, I just don't know (other than using cygwin) how to access it from windows
[01:10] <reisio> BudManz: you want to ssh from Windows to Ubuntu?
[01:10] <mead|laptop> I hate  it when laptop manufactures build their laptops so that you can't access the fan/heat sink to clean it.   compressed air can only remove so much
[01:10] <BudManz> yes, so I can setup a Scheduled Task to backup a friend's documents on my server
[01:10] <danny4way> Because I heard that Ubuntu is lighter OS than Windows.  I like Mac more than Windows.
[01:10]  * wilee-nilee looks for the windup power supply’s.
[01:11] <reisio> BudManz: mmm
[01:11] <DWSR> BudManz: Use Putty.
[01:11] <BudManz> DWSR: ok... plink?
[01:11] <BudManz> never thought of that
[01:11] <DWSR> BudManz: Yep, if you just need to the tunnel
[01:12] <BudManz> right
[01:12] <BudManz> thanks!
[01:12] <DWSR> np
[01:17] <mead|laptop> can someone help me? I found a forum post for it : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1875938  but as soon as it starts talking about patching a kernal module it might as well be written in klingon...
[01:19] <cuddylier> I seem to be having a few network issues on my ubuntu server, it appears it can only ping certain websites such as google but the DNS resolution is fine as it shows the IP when trying to ping certain sites other server boxes I have can ping fine..
[01:19] <cuddylier> Anyone any ideas or things I can check?
[01:19] <wilee-nilee> mead|laptop, Can you tell the channel the errors on any problem, details are the key here. Is that driver a proprietary source, for the channel please.
[01:20] <aj_> d
[01:20] <Ben64> cuddylier: what do you mean exactly
[01:21] <cuddylier> Ben64 Well, my server box can ping e.g. google or using google's IP
[01:21] <SunTsu> cuddylier: there's lots of packet filters that block ICMP, it's quite normal that you can't ping every server
[01:21] <cuddylier> Ben64 But when I try to ping e.g. spartanmc.net which is online and pingable by other server boxes it doesn't ping eventhough it retrieves the IP address through DNS resolution.
[01:22] <cuddylier> SunTsu What happens if I can't ping a server that I need to ping and it's one that I own and I have many other boxes which can ping it fine which are in different datacentres and the same?
[01:22] <Ben64> cuddylier: sounds like a routing issue
[01:23] <cuddylier> Ben64 Yep... is there anything I can do myself on my server box?
[01:23] <SunTsu> cuddylier: then you might want to make shorter sentences ;)
[01:23] <mead|laptop> wilee-nilee: I have a product called a"ati remote wonderplus" I can't figure out how to install the apropriate driver to get it to work with my ubuntu (xbmcbuntu) install.  Google finds me loose instructions saying I need to patch a kernal module or something.   I am clueless when it comes to patching something manually with linux.
[01:24] <SunTsu> cuddylier: try traceroute ing the server, see where the traceroute ends
[01:24] <cuddylier> SunTsu Tracerouting the server I'm having issues with remotely?
[01:25] <SunTsu> cuddylier: yeah
[01:25]  * wiak compiled his kernel with power save on battery
[01:25] <wiak> more useful on laptop
[01:25] <wiak> so its forced to use that <3
[01:26] <wilee-nilee> mead|laptop, In general top the channel so it is obvious you are not getting help. Technically not a ubuntu support issue, however, does not mean no one will help, here is a thread with a solved, that's about my best effort, best of luck. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1875938
[01:26] <wilee-nilee> to
[01:26] <cartusia> hmm how do you theme Unity? I have been trying to do it through system settings is there somewhere else. The reason why I ask my mouse pointer is invisible, I had fixed that by changing the color of the mouse pointer before.
[01:26] <cartusia> But I dont know exactly how to do that in Unity.
[01:26] <wilee-nilee> cartusia, you might check youtube.
[01:26] <reisio> not likely much to do with unity
[01:27] <cartusia> I did get an error
[01:27] <cartusia> wicd needs to access your computer's network cards
[01:27] <mead|laptop> wilee-nilee: do you know where I could find help outside of this channel
[01:27] <reisio> and that's not likely much to do with mouse pointers
[01:27] <cartusia> I already tried sir, plus its hard for me to check without being able to see where my mouse is at.
[01:27] <Stripe> close
[01:28] <Ben64> mead|laptop: see if there is an xbmcbuntu channel or support forum
[01:28] <wilee-nilee> mead|laptop, ##linux might help, there may be a forum on that stuff, I would look on the web for an irc channel maybe as well.
[01:28] <mead|laptop> thanks, wilee-nilee
[01:28] <devicenull> anyone have suggestions for speeing up ubuntu installs?  I'm trying to reduce the amount of time spent running the installer.
[01:29] <devicenull> I only need the bare minimum packages, plus ssh
[01:29] <SunTsu> devicenull: faster disks?
[01:29] <reisio> devicenull: copy instead of install
[01:29] <reisio> or use debootstrap
[01:29] <cstewart> use clonezilla or imaging software
[01:29] <devicenull> images are terrible, I'd really prefer to do installations
[01:29] <wilee-nilee> understand patience
[01:30] <SunTsu> devicenull: alternate/minimal image might help speeding things up by installing less, though
[01:30] <failmaster> i have a problem with switching passphrase luks auth on boot to key file based, extra details: http://askubuntu.com/questions/330660/what-is-the-correct-way-to-use-key-file-luks-authorization anyone?
[01:30] <devicenull> well, I'm already netbooting and I think it's doing a minimal install.  I'll have to confirm it's actually minimal though
[01:31] <wilee-nilee> SunTsu, same thing as of now and includes the download actually takes longer, but you get a nice minimal.
[01:31] <reisio> devicenull: you can tar up your install and just cp it over and extract it with minimal effort
[01:31] <cuddylier> SunTsu: http://pastebin.com/iGMBm7F5
[01:31] <cuddylier> That is from my home PC
[01:31] <SunTsu> wilee-nilee: hence the slash
[01:31] <devicenull> aka freebsd installer, heh
[01:32] <SunTsu> cuddylier: looks normal to me
[01:32] <wilee-nilee> SunTsu, Still takes longer hash or not then a standard download and install
[01:33] <SunTsu> wilee-nilee: well, my latest install took 7 minutes, for a standard install. Fast enough for me
[01:34] <xavious> Hello; I'm trying to locate an SD card in this notebook on xubuntu 13.04, Any help would be greatly appreciate.
[01:34] <MercX> df -h
[01:34] <MercX> should show you what is connected, from there you can mount it
[01:35] <xavious> MercX; Thank you.
[01:40] <cuddylier> SunTsu: This is a traceroute from the MySQL database box to the one I want to use as the client: http://pastebin.com/k7Z7ceSt
[01:40] <cuddylier> the client is the one that cannot ping the database box IP
[01:40] <HisaoNakai> Hey folks. Got a USB 3 hard disk (on a USB 2 port) here refusing to work, need to get it running ASAP. The power indicator lights up, but the device doesn't mount. Part of dmesg - http://hastebin.com/qotevonihu.css
[01:42] <cuddylier> SunTsu: The database box can't seem to ping the client box either..
[01:42] <Ben64> cuddylier: wait for the routing to get fixed
[01:42] <cuddylier> Ben64 How will I do that though..
[01:43] <xavious> MercX; It says its already mounted on dev, As udev. Can't locate it.
[01:43] <reisio> HisaoNakai: does it have separate power?
[01:43] <Ben64> cuddylier: uh, you literally wait
[01:43] <cuddylier> Ben64 Yeah... it seems to be a Europe -> US and US -> Europe problem as I'm in Europe, same as client server and it can ping my own Network IP
[01:43] <Ben64> xavious: what are you trying to do?
[01:44] <cuddylier> So looks like routing as you said
[01:44] <HisaoNakai> reisio: No.
[01:44] <reisio> HisaoNakai: is this port powered?
[01:44] <xavious> Ben64;  Trying to find this SD card I inserted into the notebook.
[01:44] <HisaoNakai> reisio: Yeah.
[01:44] <HisaoNakai> reisio: If it lights up doesn't it indicate so? o.o
[01:45] <Ben64> xavious: pastebin the outputs of "dmesg" and "mount"
[01:45] <reisio> some things take more power than an LED :)
[01:45] <wilee-nilee> xavious, does sudo fdik -l show it?
[01:45] <wilee-nilee> sudo fdisk -l
[01:45] <HisaoNakai> Har har, reisio . It might be a power problem, I wouldn't know. How do I find out?
[01:47] <xavious> wilee-nilee; Yes, It also gave its path.
[01:47] <wilee-nilee> xavious, Cool do the pastebin suggested.
[01:47] <reisio> HisaoNakai: try it in the other ports, at least one will be powered
[01:48] <dr_willis_> HisaoNakai:  how are you mounting it?
[01:49] <xavious> !pastebin
[01:49] <HisaoNakai> dr_willis_: I'm afraid I don't understand your question o_o
[01:50] <dr_willis_> HisaoNakai:  you plug it in and then tried to mount it using the mount command?
[01:50] <dr_willis_> !mount
[01:50] <wilee-nilee> xavious, I have a acer d250 netbook always problematic with a mini ssd, booting it with it in was the only answer to work most often.
[01:52] <HisaoNakai> dr_willis_: No, I waited for it to automount :\
[01:52] <xavious> wilee-nilee; Yeah seems that way, Thanks if not I'll be back. Heh
[01:52] <HisaoNakai> reisio: I think we can safely rule out power issues.
[01:53] <AndChat-224721> HisaoNakai:  mount it by hand.. look for errors. which device is it in dmesg?
[01:53] <Hexagonite> How do you install Gnome Flashback on Ubuntu 13.04?
[01:53] <reisio> what's gnome flashback?
[01:54] <reisio> Hexagonite: it's available from universe for 13.10
[01:55] <Hexagonite> you sure? Gnome Flashback is Gnome Panel for version 3.8
[01:55] <wilee-nilee> !nounity | Hexagonite
[01:56] <wilee-nilee> Hexagonite, 3.8 would not technically be supported her
[01:56] <wilee-nilee> here
[01:56] <Hexagonite> :( how come?
[01:56] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: sdc
[01:56] <wilee-nilee> Hexagonite, Not a stock install you would need a PPA at the least.
[01:57] <dr-willis> HisaoNakai:  sdc1 or what partition
[01:57] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: and I get a 'special device /dev/sdc/ does not exist' when I sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt
[01:57] <Hexagonite> wilee-nilee: doesn't 13.10 use 3.8?
[01:57] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: I have yet to see partition numbers anywhere O_o
[01:57] <wilee-nilee> Hexagonite, Does not mean no one will help, it just cuts down that possibility.
[01:57] <wilee-nilee> !13.10 | Hexagonite
[01:57] <IdleOne> Hexagonite: you can try this PPA but note that PPA's are not supported in here http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/gnome_3/raring/main/base/gnome-session-flashback
[01:58] <dr-willis> HisaoNakai:  then the hd is not sdc or its not partitioned.. or its dead
[01:58] <Hexagonite> IdleOne: thanks!
[01:58] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: ack. :o
[01:58] <dr-willis> HisaoNakai:  try lookjng at       sudo blkid   to see a list
[01:59] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: Doesn't show up.
[01:59] <HisaoNakai> *in that list
[01:59] <dr-willis> HisaoNakai:   tried it on another pc?
[02:00] <dr-willis> how  did you think it was   sdc?
[02:00] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: Do not have access to one but since someone just gave it to me to transfer files I can safely assume it was working for them.
[02:00] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: dmesg
[02:00] <dr-willis> what filesystem is on it?
[02:01] <HisaoNakai> dr-willis: How does one know that without mounting it?
[02:01] <dr-willis> ask your friend? ;-)
[02:01] <HisaoNakai> Haha.
[02:01] <dr-willis> its not some wonky exvfat or mac!
[02:01] <dr-willis> ?
[02:02] <HisaoNakai> It has a very high possibility of being in some mac format o_O
[02:02] <HisaoNakai> Related?
[02:02] <dr-willis> id try it in a  powered usb hub also
[02:03] <dr-willis> id pastebin dmesg output also.  not a huge image please..  ;-)
[02:06] <HisaoNakai> dr_willis_: huge image? o_O
[02:07] <HisaoNakai> dr_willis_: Anyway, I had to send it back, time was an issue, sorry. Thanks for the help.
[02:07] <dr_willis_> its annoying when paste screenshots of  text
[02:07] <HisaoNakai> dr_willis_: mac formatted stuff causes issues on Linux?
[02:08] <dr_willis_> HisaoNakai: it can
[02:08] <dr_willis_> !hfs
[02:11] <HisaoNakai> dr_willis_: Hm...I see, thanks, Doc. :)

[02:38] <Guest56190> hi channel
[02:39] <reisio> hi
[02:41] <Guest56190> whats crappining?
[02:41] <Calligar> Hey, I'm working on an Asus G74Sx, and on LinuxMint 15 Mate 64-bit, num keys don't work.  Any suggestions?
[02:42] <Guest56190> bet its drivers
[02:44] <Calligar> Yeah, from what I was looking up, apparently it doesn't have a num lock key (which is frustrating), at the begining, there is a message (when loading) that says num lock turned on or turning on.  However on keyboard, num lock light is turned off, and any number key on the  keyboard doesn't um...well respond.
[02:44] <Guest56190> yikes
[02:45] <Calligar> well the normal number keys work, specifically the ones on the num lock side don't work.
[02:45] <Guest56190> maybe plug and play needs to be enabled?
[02:45] <Calligar> It's not an external keyboard, what does it have to do with plug and play?
[02:45] <Guest56190> never seen any form lf linux without the keybd
[02:46] <MrHotsauce> Calligar: try suspending and unsuspending your laptop
[02:46] <Calligar> Uh...okay...
[02:46] <MrHotsauce> my friend had issues with his keyboard same laptop doing that fixerd it for him
[02:47] <Guest56190> good call MrHotsauce<<<
[02:47] <dr_willis_> search the bug reports yet? do the keys work in the console?
[02:47] <MrHotsauce> my friend had issues with his keyboard same laptop doing that fixerd it for him
[02:47] <MrHotsauce> since you missed it
[02:47] <Calligar> Okay, suspended and unsuspended
[02:47] <Calligar> those keys still don't work, num lock light still not coming on.
[02:47] <dr_willis_> sounds like a  weird bug
[02:48] <MrHotsauce> arnt the keys fn keys?
[02:48] <Micko113> how to start transmissionbt on boot in 12.04 ?
[02:48] <Guest56190> dam bugs anyways
[02:48] <Micko113> desktop
[02:48] <Calligar> no they aren't, it actually has a num key side, and its a laptop
[02:48] <Calligar> i dont have fn num keys afaik
[02:48] <dr_willis_> Micko113:  what?
[02:48] <Guest56190> mY CAPS light doesnt come on sometimes
[02:48] <Micko113> how do I auto start transmissionbt on boot
[02:49] <Micko113> desktop
[02:49] <reisio> Micko113: the GTK+ UI?
[02:49] <Micko113> install
[02:49] <Micko113> yes
[02:49] <dr_willis_> transmission has a cli  client also
[02:49] <reisio> Micko113: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[02:49] <dr_willis_> start it from rc.local perhaps
[02:49] <reisio> said GTK+
[02:50] <reisio> Micko113: you can also probably just start it, then log out
[02:50] <reisio> which will save your session
[02:50] <dr_willis_> use screen.  ;-)
[02:50] <Calligar> Guest said driver issue, is there a way to switch the keyboard driver to a different one or something, perhaps when I installed linux mint (which i jus did 3 days ago and was setting everything up), it didn't select the right keyboard?
[02:50] <Micko113> after reebot its not auto started, I have to manually start
[02:51] <dr_willis_> Calligar:  you may wsnt to ask in the  mjnt channels
[02:51] <Micko113> what would be a command for this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=ADD.png
[02:51] <bencc> how can I install a package from qunatal on 12.10?
[02:51] <Calligar> oh okay, would u mind tellin me what the mint channels are, this is the only one I know of?
[02:51] <Guest56190> its 64 bit he claims, I just thought first thing was drivers
[02:51] <bencc> I've tried: sudo apt-get install -t quantal libopus-dev
[02:51] <dr_willis_> !mint
[02:52] <dr_willis_> bencc:  you dont mixx package release versions
[02:52] <Calligar> So the channel is called "#linuxmint-help" ?
[02:52] <dr_willis_> that can get  bad.
[02:52] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, Did you run the startup applications running command and what release is this?
[02:52] <bencc> dr_willis_: in this case it should be fine. it's a standalone audio codec
[02:53] <Guest56190> how is ver 12 ubuntu running?
[02:53] <Guest56190> or 13
[02:53] <bencc> dr_willis_: is there a way to do it?
[02:53] <dr_willis_> bencc:  download the deb  perhaps
[02:53] <bencc> dr_willis_: I'm looking for somethign with apt-get
[02:54] <Micko113> just added "transmission -m" and did reboot
[02:54] <bencc> I know it is possible
[02:54] <Micko113> hold on pls
[02:54] <bencc> just don't know the command
[02:54] <dr_willis_> bencc:  you dont mixx releases that way
[02:54] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, be sure to use nicks if you are answering someone.
[02:55] <bencc> dr_willis_: you said it. I'm missing a line in my source list and it will be fine
[02:55] <bencc> dr_willis_: don't worry : )
[02:55] <dr_willis_> bencc:  if it explodes.......
[02:56] <bencc> what will happen?
[02:56] <bencc> nothing
[02:56] <dr_willis_> you blame yourself.. not us
[02:56] <bencc> dr_willis_:  this is the package I need http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/libopus0
[02:56] <wilee-nilee> mmmm doctors orders
[02:56] <bencc> you see that there are no strange deps
[02:57] <Micko113> here's version http://i.imgur.com/lUeipZG.png
[02:57] <bencc> so nothing can go wrong
[02:57] <Micko113> last start up command did not work
[02:57] <wilee-nilee> !who | Micko113
[02:57] <dr_willis_> famous last words.
[02:57] <Micko113> ok, will do
[02:57] <Calligar> Okay, found linuxmint channel, thanks
[02:58] <Calligar> Bye.
[02:58] <Guest56190> nice channel, battery needing charged l8r's
[02:58] <bencc> dr_willis_: it's ok to understand the risk
[02:58] <bencc> dr_willis_: and not just act without knowing what you do
[02:59] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, Read my posts to you if you do not understand state this. you need just transmission in the command, and you want to populate the actual startup applications, hence I asked for the release.
[03:00] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, You're best to add startups from the startup applications gui.
[03:01] <Micko113> wilee-nilee: ok, I added this "transmission-gtk -m" to start up and did reboot
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, and
[03:02] <Micko113> wilee-nilee: is that what you were talking about?
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, Seems to be your case of contention, yes.
[03:02] <Micko113> wilee-nilee: its rebooting
[03:05] <Micko113> wilee-nilee: it works, this did the trick http://i.imgur.com/N1vxOT1.png
[03:05] <wilee-nilee> Micko113, Cool, enjoy

[03:29] <fbdystang> Hi, I just installed an ubuntu zentyal email server. I am using afraid.org for dns. I can send emails just fine but cannot receive them. Please advise, and thanks in advance!
[03:29] <kiwicam> ubottu: no desktop. Server
[03:29] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, You might ask in #ubuntu-server if this is a ubuntu server
[03:29] <fbdystang> ah, thanks
[03:30] <steamboat> thanks
[03:30] <steamboat> I'll see if that helps
[03:30] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, Heh, uefi is more fun than you should be allowed to have, backup/clone W8 first.
[03:31] <wilee-nilee> steamboat, And have a recovery or install disc
[03:32] <noiro> You know how in KDE how you can set how many lines the scroll wheel scrolls on the mouse per 'click' of the scroll? How do you do that in Gnome?
[03:33] <Rosenzweig_> Hey Guys i need some help.
[03:33] <wilee-nilee> noiro, should be in mouse
[03:33] <noiro> Nope. All I see is pointer speed, double-click and primary button
[03:33] <Rosenzweig_> So I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10, and my FGLRX driver broke. AFter fiddling around, I realized that FGLRX no longer is supported and that it breaks with X, so I instaleld some fglrx-legacy driver and that didn't work either.
[03:34] <Rosenzweig_> So now, I just want to use the free driver... but I don't know how.
[03:34] <Rosenzweig_> I removed all the fgrlx crap, installed the xserver-xorg-video-ati package and it still boots into VESA mode.
[03:34] <Rosenzweig_> Can someone help me? Because I'm extremely confused.
[03:34] <wilee-nilee> noiro, I'm not in ubuntu now so I can't actually look.
[03:35] <circut> how do you take a screen shot? I have parted magic live usb running. Not sure which video is running?
[03:35] <wilee-nilee> !prtsc
[03:35] <wilee-nilee> !screeshot
[03:35] <wilee-nilee> !screenshot
[03:35] <wilee-nilee> circut, ^^^
[03:36] <circut> in terminal I tried the windows fn + prnt scrn keys , no output?
[03:36] <Rosenzweig_> So guys, radeondriver... free... not sure how to get working. Might anyone help me please?
[03:37] <wilee-nilee> circut, Partedmagic is not ubuntu though nor even linuxso not technically supported you might look on the web or ask in ##windows
[03:38] <circut> I thought it was part of unix os. Different animal. sorry for that!
[03:38] <wilee-nilee> circut, No biggie we want you to get help. ;)
[03:39] <circut> But Ubuntu or libnux where does it output the file - the  comamnd 1screenshot ?
[03:41] <Rosenzweig_> Anyone here know how to completely install and test the free radeon driver?
[03:41] <Rosenzweig_> Because I never have any clue how to do this.
[03:43] <wilee-nilee> circut, This is ubuntu support only, if you were actually using it we would be done.
[03:44] <Rosenzweig_> Okay I removed fgrlx for the millionth time and tried installing the free ati driver.
[03:44] <Rosenzweig_> Let's hope this works.
[03:46] <Rosenzweig_> And nope, I get this broken resolution VESA crap again.
[03:46] <Rosenzweig_> Is anyone a legacy ATI user here?
[03:51] <zykotick9> Rosenzweig_: the ATI driver is open, NOT free... there is a difference.  the open AMD/ATI driver still needs non-free firmware for 3D support, thus it is open source - but there is NO "free" (as in FAIF) 3d support for AMD/ATI
[03:51] <circut> Anyone know command to mount a /dev? I mean a partition on the hdd? do I need to be in any certain dorectory forst ?
[03:52] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: I'm pretty sure it is now EOL: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases I have found this which is the exact same issue I'm having, but no solution thee http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1886798
[03:52] <circut> My first partition sda1 is the directory - folder I want to open?
[03:52] <Rosenzweig> zykotick9, not FOSS free... but either way.
[03:52] <Rosenzweig> I need to install this driver and I have no clue how to.
[03:53] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, The server is still supported for a little longer
[03:55] <kiwicam> I've tried changing my sources.list from  NL to Main with no luck. I have an internet connection and apahce2 is running and working. Ping to google doesn't workas per that thread but the other ping does.

[03:56] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, Might be a bug I see various hits on this, but have no definitive answer.
[03:58] <wilee-nilee> I have no no definitive answer.
[04:00] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, Is this a ubuntu-server?
[04:00] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: Yes, it is.
[04:00] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, Cool, just checking.
[04:01] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, I saw a sarge repo in that UF link, do you have any other then the ubuntu repos in your sources.list?
[04:02] <wilee-nilee> If so are they off for a upgrade?
[04:03] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: I'll give you the sources.list shortly, just rebooting it...
[04:04] <|JZ|> wilee-nilee .. I tried reformating now I am at something that says initramfs
[04:04] <parth_> hello
[04:04] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, reformatting? Can you refresh my memory?
[04:05] <parth_> yes
[04:05] <|JZ|> I had the black screen with _ flashing
[04:05] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, How did you reformat?
[04:06] <|JZ|> couldn't get into the thing with shift
[04:06] <|JZ|> I used live cd
[04:06] <|JZ|> and install ubuntu erase and install ubuntu 13.04
[04:06] <|JZ|> it installed rebooted now I am at initramfs
[04:07] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, So you made a new partition and or reformatted the one there say with the installer or gparted and installed there?
[04:07] <|JZ|> alert /dev/disk/by-uuid/dce longg does not exist
[04:07] <|JZ|> I used the livecd reformated with w.e tool it has
[04:08] <plustax> im having an issue. I have 13.04 and I just downloaded the 13.04 iso and burned it using ubuntu's write to disc at slow speed. I have a trojan on my windows partition. the disc is burned but it wont let me boot to disc.
[04:08] <plustax> i have a windows 8 disc which wont boot either.
[04:08] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: It looks like I'll have to get back to you later. I can't ssh into it now and the website is down. I'll contact the provider.
[04:08] <wilee-nilee> |JZ|, initramfs is out of my area really, have you checked the hd is still good, the live cd has a smartcheck in disks, and or checked th md5sum on the ISO
[04:09] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, Cool, I'm probably not your best help is all.
[04:09] <wilee-nilee> matter of fact I'm sure, lol. ;)
[04:10] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: I've had worse ;) Like myself for instance :)
[04:10] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, I'm my worst enemy. ;)
[04:11] <martin__> hello
[04:11] <martin__> i have a qwew
[04:11] <holstein> martin__: ask
[04:12] <wilee-nilee> plustax, In regular computers there is a bootfrom menu not in the bios gotten to with a key or key prompts, you might look on the net for yours, mine is a f12 at powering on.
[04:13] <wilee-nilee> plustax, NOt sure if on a fastboot setup this is as easy to reach, or there.
[04:14] <wilee-nilee> plustax, You might call the computer manufacturer as well.
[04:16] <StarOnD> I have libboost1.40 libbost1.49,how can I have one consistent verision and install liboost-all-dev?
[04:17] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: Had to restart the server twice. My provider had switched migrated me to somewhere else (which I didn't know about) and the retart seems to have done the tirck with updating. Wish me luck on the upgrade.
[04:17] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: Thanks for you help anyway. Always appreciated
[04:17] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, I officially wish you good luck and a life of happiness. ;)
[04:18] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: :) Who could ask for more.
[04:18] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[04:19] <kiwicam> wilee-nilee: Should the etc/update-manager/release-upgradesfile be empty?
[04:19] <kiwicam> befoe adding "etc/update-manager/release-upgrades" anyway
[04:19] <kiwicam> sorry Prompt=lts.
[04:20] <wilee-nilee> kiwicam, Not sure on that I'm in windows 8 at the moment I can't look at mine in general.
[04:20] <kiwicam> Silly me "    Note: The minumum contents of /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades should be:

[04:26] <energizer1> Hi. I want to know which local port a program is using. I cant find it in netstat. Where should I be looking?
[04:26] <holstein> energizer1: the applicaiont documentation?
[04:26] <holstein> application*
[04:26] <energizer1> its a really old game im running in WINE. no docs
[04:27] <Rosenzweig> So guys I think I narrowed my problem down.
[04:27] <Rosenzweig> The reason why I'm using the VESA driver instead of the OSS driver is because my configuration is screwed up.
[04:28] <wilee-nilee> no, do tell.
[04:28] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[04:28] <Rosenzweig> How do I fix the driver configuration so taht I can use the radeon OSS driver?
[04:28] <holstein> Rosenzweig: you dont need to "install the free ati driver".. its just in the kernel
[04:28] <holstein> Rosenzweig: if it supports your device, it'll "just work"
[04:28] <Rosenzweig> Well I'm using the VESA driver for some reason.
[04:29] <Rosenzweig> The HD Radeon 4200 is supported.
[04:29] <Rosenzweig> For at least the OSS driver.
[04:29] <holstein> Rosenzweig: did you set up a custom xorg.conf?
[04:29] <Rosenzweig> I don't even have an xorg.conf.
[04:29] <Rosenzweig> I checked.
[04:29] <holstein> Rosenzweig: for me, seeing is believing when it comes to graphics card support
[04:30] <Rosenzweig> I believe I had it working on Debian a few months ago when this same exact problem occured.
[04:30] <holstein> Rosenzweig: you "believe" ?
[04:30] <holstein> Rosenzweig: what problem?
[04:31] <Rosenzweig> holstein, I'm pretty sure that a few months ago I did get it to work on Debian.
[04:31] <Rosenzweig> When this same exact problem occured on Debian.
[04:31] <Rosenzweig> The problem is that FGLRX broke, I tried to purge it, and for some reason the OSS drivers won't boot up.
[04:31] <holstein> Rosenzweig: pretty sure?.. either id did or it didnt..
[04:31] <holstein> Rosenzweig: what "broke" it? a kernel upgrade?
[04:31] <gordan12> does anybody know working 3d driver for sis graphic card?
[04:31] <Rosenzweig> I'm positive, holstein.
[04:31] <holstein> Rosenzweig: why are you not trying the proprietary driver?
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> holstein, my upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10.
[04:32] <holstein> Rosenzweig: you dont sound positive..
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> ...
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> Let me explain.
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> I upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10.
[04:32] <holstein> Rosenzweig: i would either run 12.04 or 13.04 at ths point
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> Unity was broken.
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> So what did I do?
[04:32] <holstein> Rosenzweig: unity? or the graphics card?
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> I checked online and it appears that with my hardware, the fglrx driver will not support X.
[04:32] <holstein> Rosenzweig: unity is not in debian.. what was the issue over there?
[04:32] <Rosenzweig> ...
[04:33] <Rosenzweig> The issue was the same, I had a kernel upgrade and X broke.
[04:33] <holstein> Rosenzweig: what do i suggest? download a 13.04 live CD.. test.. install if all is well
[04:33] <Rosenzweig> Don't have any CD's here.
[04:33] <holstein> Rosenzweig: live USB then
[04:35] <Rosenzweig> USBs won't work with my mobo.
[04:35] <Rosenzweig> Well... not when booting.
[04:35] <holstein> Rosenzweig: what would id suggest? take this as an opporinity to plan for when that hard drive *will* fail.. get the data backed up, and plan for booting media to repair or reinstall the OS
[04:36] <holstein> this will not be a waste of time, since it *is* a matter of time til that is an issue for you.. and after that, you will be able to test 12.04 or 13.04
[04:37] <holstein> Rosenzweig: if you are asking 'what happened?', you have a lot of variables going on with an upgraded system.. could have had PPA's, or who knows what
[04:42] <jesusemelendezm> hey there
[04:42] <jesusemelendezm> anybody working with ubuntu server here/
[04:42] <jesusemelendezm> ?
[04:42] <holstein> jesusemelendezm: yes
[04:42] <jesusemelendezm> holstein how do you use it ?
[04:42] <jesusemelendezm> for which services?
[04:43] <holstein> jesusemelendezm: depends on the situation
[04:49] <rudi> thank's

[04:57] <holstein> excray: you are trying to install ubuntu.. using wubi.. from windows7
[04:57] <excray> yes
[04:57] <holstein> excray: when do you get that error
[04:57] <excray> 12.04
[04:58] <excray> As soon as I start it after selecting the installation options
[04:58] <excray> wubi.exe --dimagepath=<iso path>
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> does that file exist?
[04:58] <excray> root.disk? no
[04:59] <holstein> excray: what would i suggest? doing a dual boot, or virtualbox installation.. wubi is notoriously problematic for folks.. if not, download the iso you want to use, and put it in the same directory with the wubi.exe
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> so the wubi installer is trying to make it and failing it seems.
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> wubi is best not used. ;)
[04:59] <holstein> might be the user doesnt have permission or whatever... if the windows user is not an "admin" or whatever
[05:00] <excray> oh alright

[05:08] <HypnotiX> Hello, how do i get rid of the keyring password when ubuntu first loads
[05:09] <ss_haze> HypnotiX: encryption in 13.04?
[05:09] <HypnotiX> i think so
[05:09] <wilee-nilee> Dr_Willis, Have you looked in the deconf-editor
[05:09] <osubuntu> btw is there a way to instantly update from 12.04 to 13.04 without 12.10?
[05:10] <wilee-nilee> dconf
[05:10] <wilee-nilee> osubuntu, not that I know of.
[05:10] <wilee-nilee> osubuntu, YOu have 5 yeras support with 12.04
[05:11] <osubuntu> wilee-nile, actually yUbuntu never exist
[05:11] <osubuntu> wilee-nile, and that's why I'm asking about upgrading
[05:11] <wilee-nilee> osubuntu, No really.
[05:12] <ss_haze> osubuntu:  you have to add repos of 13.04 to source list
[05:12] <wilee-nilee> ss_haze, NO that is wrong
[05:12] <ss_haze> replace
[05:12] <wilee-nilee> very bad advice
[05:12] <ss_haze> that is wrong, but that is the way to do it
[05:12] <chiques> Google is my friend
[05:12] <ss_haze> it worked 1 time for me
[05:13] <wilee-nilee> ss_haze, You are the king of just bad options, you should be banned.
[05:13] <ss_haze> what can he break there?
[05:14] <ss_haze> I did it once, and it worked, and 13.04 was very usable, but 12.04 is a lot better to use in every day use.
[05:15] <ss_haze> I would suggest downloading disk and installing new version then.
[05:16] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, You want to run without a user password?
[05:17] <peterrooney> 90% of solutions found by google are wrong.
[05:18] <Carraway> is there a better quick, fast http server than mongoose?
[05:18] <osubuntu> how about 10%?

[05:46] <excray> Can i install ubuntu from a portable HDD. It is NTFS. Should it be formatted to FAT32?
[05:48] <wilee-nilee> excray, Maybe, however not the easiest way, and probably wont work, this a HD with any valuable data?
[05:48] <Mace268> that's perfect showing workspaces with hot corners :D
[05:51] <excray> @wilee-nilee - Yes, it is a backup disk
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> best would be to use a usb flash drive excray  i think 4 gb is big enough.

[06:14] <aditya> Hey guys ! I am using a Vostro 5460.. I am using the Ubuntu pre-loaded edition.. However, I am facing an issue of low audio output.. which does not plague Windows users ATM.. Please help..!
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> low audio is a common issue with some chipsets. I suggest checking the forums and askubuntu.com for others with similer issue for that make pc. and the audio chipset
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> aditya:  ive never seen a 'quick fix' mentioned in here.  so dont know what anyone has done to fix the issue
[06:18] <DarwinSurvivor> aditya: also checked that *all* audio channels (Master, PCM, etc) are set to reasonable levels
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> Audio in linux/ubuntu still needs some work. :)  of course its also a bit of a disaster in windows.. but theres audio 'things' i want to do in ubuntu that i just cant figure out.
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> right now - i got 'cheese' captureing video and audio from a USB Video Capture dongle.. it works well. buti cant hear the audio of the incomming capture stream as im captureing it..
[06:25] <aditya> Dr_Willis, DarwinSurvivor Hey! Thanks guys..! So, there's no immediate fix as such..? Right now, I have everything maxed out as I can see in alsa..
[06:26] <aditya> Also, I have tried discussing this at ubuntuforums as well but got no answer..

[06:38] <xmetal> there are many ways you can do this, I'd advice using a live cd/usb (example there is one called "Super Grub" that was created for just such an occasion)

[06:42] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: last time you told me to use dd command to zero it then use fdisk to create partition then it was created but when i then went to gparted to format it since we had it mounted gparted couldn't see it
[06:43] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: right now i wanted to change the drive location as it had that weird wnnxxxxxx location
[06:43] <Mace268> how do i assign the software center to apt:// urls?
[06:44] <reisio> terrible idea
[06:45] <Mace268> ok what should open them then?
[06:45] <reisio> you really want your browser to be able to install things?
[06:45] <xmetal> i need to learn the bot's commands so i dont have to hunt for links, while helping people
[06:45] <xmetal> lol
[06:45] <reisio> !links
[06:46] <reisio> okay then...
[06:46] <Mace268> not necessarily just browsing through apps.ubuntu.com and noticed it
[06:46] <reisio> it's https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptURL anyways
[06:46] <reisio> terrible idea
[06:46] <tones> why not a good idea?
[06:46] <sunsword> who wants to help the noob?
[06:47] <xmetal> wow i was lagging
[06:47] <Rapid2214> reiso, why is it a bad idea?
[06:47] <sunsword> need to figure out how to get my laptop video card supported so I can move beyond 1200x800...
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> ghostnik11:  you can set up fstab to mount it to whatever directory you want. if you want to rely on the auto mounting to give it a place use the 'tune2fs' command to set a lable on the filesystem.
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> so do you want to auto mount it on demand.. or mount it at boot time (edit fstab)
[06:50] <Mace268> I'll just leave apturl alone lol, I guess it could be a security hole
[06:50] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: which one is best? automout means that when i plug it in it pops up
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> if its alwyas plugged in - use fstab.
[06:51] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: well right now its plugged in to my desktop but i will need it primarily for my laptop
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> its slightly 'weird' to have ext2/3/4 auto mounting on demand by the users.   thats normally used for removeable flash drives which are ntfs/vfat/fat32
[06:53] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: okay then what type you i make it?
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> totally depends on what OS's are accessing it. and what job you are doing with it.
[06:54] <DarwinSurvivor> Dr_Willis: not very uncommon if used for backups and stuff where permissions matter
[06:55] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: it will be primarily accessed by both windows and linux as I will need to put files on it that come from windows laptops while my laptop is ubuntu 13.04
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> then use windows to format/partion and set the label as you need.
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> NTFS should work fine for you.
[06:57] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: i don't have a windows laptop, when i get to school i will get files and power point slides from others who have different computers
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> and their windows pcs will only be able to read/write to ntfs, or fat32, do those are your 2 options
[06:59] <ikillcypher> Dr_Willis, do you know anything about the ubuntu touch:?
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> ikillcypher:  it has its own channel. and i dont use touch. im not even testing it out on my Nexus-7 tablet yet.
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> !touch
[07:01] <ikillcypher> there isnt a developer around at any point of time :(
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> i dont really 'develop' either. ;P
[07:01] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: so i have to format it to fat 32 or ntfs. quick question because i was told by someone that on campus someone got a virus on their ubuntu machine from sharing if i make the hard drive fat32 will it prevent viruses from going on it?
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> ghostnik11:  i doubt very much they got any 'linux' virus from a fat32/ntfs drive.
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> a windows machine with a virus could do somthing to the drive.. but i doubt if  that 'windows virus' would do anything to a linux box.
[07:05] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: well so i can use tunefs to format and change label?
[07:06] <ari_tama> hola
[07:06] <Dr_Willis> if its ntfs/vfat theres some other cli tools, i forget the names. or next time you pop it in a windows machine just rename disk/label from windows.
[07:07] <Dr_Willis> Hellos
[07:07] <reisio> hello.
[07:07] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: i will try that when i come in contact with windows but i rather the cli tools
[07:08] <Dr_Willis> theres some 'dosfs tools' in the repos.. not used them in ages.
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> gparted works for me to relabel mine - if the proper dos tools are installed also.
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> !info dosfstools
[07:11] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: i already have it installed by default
[07:13] <user82> hi. my wireless lan is constantly breaking down in 13.04. I tested two networks and two usb wifi dongles. is this a known problem/is there a solution for that. strangely the linux mint i had two months ago did the same thing
[07:13] <user82> usually it runs for a while and then disconnects/reconnects/...
[07:17] <dreamon_> Having a wifi connection. want to make a hotspot same as in handys possible. how can I do wie networkmanager?
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> !ics
[07:18] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: okay i plugged in and out the hard drive then ran fdisk and got nothing then did lsusb and got this:
[07:18] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 152d:2329 JMicron Technology Corp. / JMicron USA Technology Corp. JM20329 SATA Bridge
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> you mean you ran 'sudo fdisk -l' ? or are you just trying random commands again?
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> the tail end of 'dmesg' should also mention the device if its seen/detected
[07:19] <lotuspsychje> i have his screen and mouse pointer distortion again on 13.04 clean install on driver radeon and older ati X800 grafix card: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=96jp7b&s=5 , any sugestions?
[07:20] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: no i did sudo fdisk -l because i read up on dosfstools
[07:20] <lotuspsychje> oh and its only first boot, all boots after distortion dissapears
[07:20] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: i should try the dmsg tail command
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> it just spits out info.. so why not.. its not going to DO anything other then print out diag. messages.
[07:22] <dreamon_> ubottu, Is it possible to do with only one wifi adapter?
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> i dont think all the differnt wifi drivers/adaptors support the hotspot/ad-hoc type stuff but some do.
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> I just got a router. ;) saves hassles
[07:23] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: here is the dmesg | tail command readout i got: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5972664/
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> ghostnik11:  and your drive is 'sdb' ?
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> looks like its still a confused drive in one way or another.
[07:26] <Dr_Willis>  sdb: unknown partition table
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> [ 4566.810611] sd 5:0:0:0: >[sdb] Very big device. Trying to use READ CAPACITY(16).
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> how big is this 'very big device' ?
[07:27] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: yeah, weird it is 500gb
[07:27] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: the type of files that was on the drive was mostly mp3s and other music files
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> the type of files on the drive dont matter.. if the hd is failing.. its failing
[07:28] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: but can't we make it not fail
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> hds fail.. eventually they ALL fail
[07:28] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: yeah but i thought i could like format it and then use it as just storage from scratch
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> you had it working yesterday.. its not working today (correct?) commands that worked yesterday, are not working today..
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> if your car blows the engine.. putting a new coat of paint wont fix it...
[07:29] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: so just throw it in the garbage
[07:29]  * Dr_Willis has a whole box of dead hard drives.
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> The HD makers often have special tools for windows to try to 'kick the drive in the head' depending on the brand.
[07:30] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: WD (western digital)
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> go to the WD homepage and see.. it might even be under warrenty still
[07:31] <ghostnik11> Dr_Willis: it has been owned for a while unless they have lifetime warrenty
[07:32] <Mace268> some have 5 years
[07:32] <Mace268> but those could have been made over 5 years ago, i can't recall
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> Ive definatly had drives replaced at 4 yrs old. ;)
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> gotta love it whenthey replace a 1TB hd with a 2 TB...
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> I think those were Segate. ;)
[07:38] <Mace268> I like seagate's service. never had a problem yet.
[07:39] <HypnotiX> I just make an orange selection box on my screen, how do i get rid of it? :)
[07:39] <HypnotiX> made even
[07:39] <Mace268> it's not supposed to stay
[07:39] <wilee-nilee> Some seagates have cooling issues I have a 2 tb external that shows a hot run in disks smart info, not really possible, however I elevated it and it does run cooler
[07:40] <HypnotiX> but it does just stay on the screen
[07:40] <Mace268> make a bigger selection around it and it might go away, long shop though
[07:40] <Mace268> shot*
[07:40] <HypnotiX> nop
[07:41] <HypnotiX> its not the first time it happens either
[07:41] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, a screen shot in imagebin might be nice.
[07:41] <Mace268> i'm no expert by any means but it sounds like a video driver issue
[07:44] <JViz> pkg-config appears to be missing atleast one library i have installed that i need
[07:44] <HypnotiX> http://i.imgur.com/KjDaOdG.jpg
[07:44] <JViz> libpcap-dev is installed, but pkg-config --list-all doesn't list it
[07:45] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, You have a lot opened there, you check the ram and cpu usage?
[07:46] <HypnotiX> those are just small programs
[07:46] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, Never the less have you checked?
[07:46] <HypnotiX> 6gb ram free 10% cpu usage
[07:48] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, Cool, thanks, not sure I have had that happen occasionally not very often though, I think there is a unity restart command not sure of it though I ues the gnome-shell.
[07:49] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, What release is that?
[07:50] <HypnotiX> 13.04
[07:50] <HypnotiX> ok i ran unity twice in the console and it fixed the problem
[07:51] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, excellent, I saw that as a restart command in earlier releases @ askubuntu.com
[07:52] <wilee-nilee> HypnotiX, Here is a unity and compiz reset if needed for 13.04 too. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/how-to-reset-unity-compiz-in-ubuntu-12-10-and-13-04
[07:53] <HypnotiX> thanx
[07:54] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[08:06] <JViz> i figured out my problem, libpcap-dev doesn't come with a pc file
[08:09] <xmetal> drats ... ordered amazon.com brand dvds and the brand i like just went on sale
[08:09] <xmetal> #-o
[08:10] <wilee-nilee> xmetal, where?
[08:11]  * wilee-nilee pops a pepper "mint" mmmm whole foods
[08:11] <xmetal> i see office depot has TDK (not counting Dying burners or rare power outages, i never had any coasters with tons and tons of that brand)
[08:12] <xmetal> oh well
[08:12] <xmetal> :)
[08:17] <ichuot> hello
[08:17] <ichuot> everybody here?
[08:20] <spacecase> can a linux-image-extra deb be found for the mainline daily kernels?
[08:21] <xmetal> hmm
[08:21] <wilee-nilee> so what is the specifications on dvd+rw 4x or 2x what does the numbered x mean this a limitation of burning speed?
[08:21] <xmetal> dont need two hundered, but while i am there i may pick up a pack
[08:22] <xmetal> i think thats is it... based on the burner of course, but in theory, that should be the burning speed
[08:22] <xmetal> (max)
[08:22] <xmetal> TDK's have just been so realible for me in the past, if i am up by OD, i may get a pack anyway
[08:22] <wilee-nilee> ah found this at amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Memorex-32025541-DVD-Pack-Spindle/dp/B0000A98AC/ref=sr_1_12?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1376209154&sr=1-12&keywords=dvd%2Brw+discs+blank
[08:23] <wilee-nilee> seems best price
[08:23] <xmetal> i am sure the amazon one's will be good and work with my DVR (that uses DVDS) and PC burners
[08:23] <wilee-nilee> with prime delivery

[08:50] <xmetal> let me guess, i have been reported
[08:50] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: this is an ubuntu channel, not spamming new hardware
[08:51] <xmetal> lol one post
[08:51] <dongt630> good day. I need help with my ubuntu settings. changing resolution to 1360x768 (monitor's native res is 1366x768) causes the screen to bloat and now my entire left menubar is offscreen
[08:53] <EricJ> dongt630: wouldn't you want 1366x768 instead if that's the screens native resolution?
[08:53] <dongt630> oddly enough, it only gives me the option of 1360x768
[08:54] <xmetal> oh whatever, i dont care
[08:54] <mastroLive> Hi, I'm dealing with EFI boot for the first time... My system have 2 disk, the first is an SSD used for RST by Windows8 (pre-installed + don't let me create recovery disks) the second one is a standard disk with GPT partition table and many partitions (I already managed to install the system but it doesn't give me the options for Linux) -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/5972831/
[08:54] <OerHeks> dongt630, have you tried to reset the monitor? this might help.
[08:54] <mastroLive> I already disabled secure booting and fast start from windows
[08:55] <e66> hello all. I am in a very bad situation
[08:55] <EricJ> dongt630: if you feel like getting your hands dirty, check out the documentation for xorg.conf -- most resolution-related stuff can be configured there, albeit not easily.
[08:55] <lotuspsychje> anything in my xorg log that could cause this scren distortion? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5972859/
[08:55] <dongt630> Ive tried: Resetting the monitor, switching to DVI-VGA, installing nvidia 304 - 310
[08:55] <gordonjcp> dongt630: silly question, but when you set 1360 width and it looks weird, did you hit the auto-adjust button?
[08:56] <dongt630> yes ive also tried the auto-adjust
[08:56] <e66> I am from a corrupted live cd. I can not install anything from it. My Computer does not have linux. And windows is corrupted. I have a 250MB USB stick only. No Burner. How can I install ubuntu?
[08:57] <Joal> im having problem connecting to openvpn. SecurityKiss. I did everything in tutorial, connected, but no connection in browser. any clue?
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> e66:  debootstrap is one way. or put the HD in a differnt pc install to it.. then move it back
[08:57] <xmetal> or download the livecd on another pc and reburn
[08:58] <dongt630> EricJ: what part of xorg.conf should i be looking at?
[08:58] <xmetal> see if you can install that one
[08:58] <EricJ> e66: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> e66:  of course if you had a network ands a 2nd pc.. you could setup a netboot install setup.
[08:58] <sina2_> suggest me a software to redirect whole my TCP traffic through a https proxy with User&Pass. I need to redirect my DNS request through proxy too??
[08:58] <e66> Dr_Willis: there is no other pc.
[08:58] <lacy20> hello
[08:58] <lacy20> anyone here
[08:59] <xmetal> no we are all gone
[08:59] <Joal> wouldnt it be possible to partition the hard-drive, and install linux from one to another?
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> e66:  so how are you on teh internet now? the semi-broken pc?  You could partion the hd. and setup grub on the hd to boot an iso file you had downloaded to the HD. ;)
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> Joal:  grub2 booting a iso file - is one way to do that. If you got the skills. ;)
[08:59] <xmetal> good point
[09:00] <xmetal> lol i haven't messed with that lately .. keep forgetting
[09:00] <dongt630> what part of xorg.conf should i be looking at to fix this problem?
[09:00] <xmetal> (grub2 to boot iso)
[09:00] <e66> I have internet access. is it possible to install from net? any way to utilize 250mb USB?
[09:00] <xmetal> 250MB?
[09:00] <xmetal> ack
[09:01] <e66> thats the problem
[09:01] <xmetal> Tiny Linux that small?
[09:01] <xmetal> hmm
[09:01] <xmetal> not even sure what Tiny is based on
[09:01] <xmetal> i cant even remember
[09:01] <xmetal> ir is it PuppyLinux
[09:01] <xmetal> or *
[09:01] <dongt630> damnsmalllinux
[09:01] <Joal> Dr_Willis: yep, One needs the skills ;)
[09:01] <e66> Is itpossible to install ubuntu minimul via this usb?
[09:01] <xmetal> thats one, dong
[09:01] <kubblai> sina2_: DNA lookups are not handled by a https proxy however you can change your dns servers in network manager
[09:01] <bekks> e66: You should buy a reasonably sized USB thumb drive. There are about a very few dollars for 16GB.
[09:01] <Bodsda> DSL is about 50mb
[09:01] <xmetal> (thank god i didn't forget the comma)
[09:01] <kubblai> Dns *
[09:01] <xmetal> :)
[09:02] <Joal> so, no idea about my vpn-connection?
[09:02] <e66> bekks: Right now I am at parents place. the place is a bit remote.
[09:02] <trijntje> !hi | lacy20
[09:02] <Guest87222> I am a beginner in Open source contribution, trying to fix a small bug in ubuntu, how can I get source code from launchpad? Can you please help me
[09:03] <Bodsda> Guest87222: be more specific - a link would be useful
[09:03] <Guest87222> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/887525
[09:04] <lacy20_> hell
[09:04] <lotuspsychje> i have his screen and mouse pointer distortion every first boot on 13.04 clean install on driver radeon and older ati X800 grafix card: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=96jp7b&s=5 , any sugestions?
[09:04] <lacy20_> hello
[09:04] <lacy20_> hi
[09:04] <trijntje> hi lacy20_, whats up?
[09:04] <lacy20_> test chat
[09:04] <Bodsda> Guest87222: so the bug is either in dpkg or bash -- sudo apt-get source dpkg     will get you the dpkg source for example
[09:05] <trijntje> Guest87222: if you click on 'code' at the top of that page, you can get the development release and download it using bzr
[09:05] <Guest87222> trijntje: I was trying to do that
[09:09] <xmetal> hmm should have put DSL on my old laptop before it died
[09:10] <Guest87222> trijntje: Should I go for the last modified development release?
[09:11] <Joal> maybe its my firewall. do I need to open any port out or in if im using openvpn?
[09:11] <trijntje> Guest87222: I guess so, then it wil be fixed in the comming version(s) of ubuntu
 OK. How can I check that DNS is OK, I mean it can pass the firewall ?
[09:13] <Guest87222> trijntje: Ok
[09:13] <SunTsu> Joal: depends on your setup and how tight your firewall is configured
[09:14] <sailor923> hello I need information. for radeon hd 4250 integrated chip I had horrible performance with oss drivers on all desktop environments. i tried the catalyst but unity 3d disappeared and fell back to unity 2d and moving windows became slow etc so I uninstalled ubuntu. can someone tell me if catalyst for this chip will give me same performance as on windows, if yes, i'll install ubuntu and try again, or should i install win?
[09:14] <sailor923> i need my snes games to run well
[09:14] <SunTsu> Joal: if it allows outbound connections to port 1194 (tcp or udp, depends) it should be OK, if it doesn't you will have to configure it the way it does
[09:16] <Joal> SunTsu: well, im connecting to specified vpns where each has their own port, for example one has 123.
[09:17] <Joal> SunTsu: I specify those when I add vpn-connections in network-manager
[09:20] <Joal> so, do I need to specifically allow 123 in or out in firewall?
[09:20] <strokonof> hey

[09:44] <Joal> aarh! why cant I add new rules to firewall?
[09:47] <SunTsu> Joal: Nobody knows the answer because we don't know your firewall setup - as I said

[09:59] <RituS> Hey I am very new to bug fixing in ubuntu! Couldsomeboody help me report a bug in launchpad?
[10:02] <kikyy> hi

[10:07] <Guest87222> Is it necessary to have SSH key in launchpad?
[10:08] <snufft> hey guys
[10:09] <snufft> i'm having some trouble with eyefinity on a 7970 in ubuntu 13.04. as a desktop, it seems to work "ok" (there's bgs with running things in full screen on a single monitor), but playing Serious Sam 3 BFE through steam, it will only use the centre monitor.
[10:10] <snufft> all the guides i've seen have said to create a monitor group, but there's no option for that when viewing catalyst through gksudo amdcccle
[10:10] <kikyy> hey guys
[10:10] <snufft> i also can't find anything for bezel correction
[10:13] <A1Recon> If a bluetooth headset has HSP and HFP profiles, but no A2DP profile...does this mean that I can't listen to music on it?
[10:19] <wilee-nilee> RituS, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
 thank you!
[10:22] <wilee-nilee> no problem
[10:22] <ItsMeLenny> ppm2pcx no longer exists?
[10:22] <wilee-nilee> !info ppm2pcx
[10:22] <ItsMeLenny> i really need something to export or convert to pcx because gimp doesnt work properly
[10:23] <ItsMeLenny> ohhh its ppmtopcx, sorry my mistake
[10:24] <wilee-nilee> !info ppmtopcx
[10:25] <dgx> Hey all. How can I acomplish this: i want to be logged in as root and always have all permissions and priviliges? Now when I log in, i can edit files in /var/www for example
[10:26] <bekks> dgx: Hopefully, you cant.
[10:26] <bekks> !sudo | dgx
[10:27] <dgx> bekks: Currently im using gksudo nautilus to do so.
[10:27] <bekks> dgx: Thats the way to do it.
[10:27] <dgx> So I guess its intended that way?
[10:27] <bekks> And using nautilus as root permanently - might mess up your permissions.
[10:27] <ItsMeLenny> damnit it put the colours in the wrong order, im so close though, editing apogee dos games is difficult
[10:27] <dgx> bekks: I see. Another question: apache currently gives me 403 forbidden, even when lookin at html pages?
[10:28] <bekks> dgx: Then your already messed up the permissions by using nautilus as root.
[10:28] <bekks> dgx: Look at the apache log to see the exact and full error message.
[10:29] <Flannel> dgx: To allow yourself to edit files in /var/www without sudo, you'll want to do is add yourself to the www-data/apache group (depending on your Ubuntu version), and then make sure those files are writable by group, not just user.
[10:30] <bekks> Writable by group might mess up permissions too, since there are applications out there that a) do not need group write access and b) do not allow it - like configuration files.
[10:30] <bekks> Its a very bad idea to give write access to a regular user.
[10:30] <Flannel> bekks: Nothing in /var/www has those conditions.
[10:30] <dgx> Hmm, coult it be that I've copied the dir from different partition with gksudo ?
[10:31] <bekks> Flannel: Then you never dealt with configuration files for phpmyadmin, etc.
[10:31] <Flannel> bekks: Those configuration files should not be in browsable web directories, they should be elsewhere in the filesystem.
[10:31] <dgx>  Those permissions are so messed-up -_-
[10:32] <bekks> Flannel: "should" and "are" ...
[10:32] <dgx> And my phpmyadmin works correctly
[10:32] <bekks> dgx: Then fix the permissions.
[10:32] <ItsMeLenny> i must have an old ppmtopcx
[10:33] <ItsMeLenny> might have to hex edit
[10:33] <bekks> ItsMeLenny: To do what?
[10:33] <ItsMeLenny> bekks, so i can specify the colour order
[10:33] <ItsMeLenny> probably using "-stdpalette " would fix it but its not recognised command
[10:34] <Flannel> bekks: phpmyadmin must be up there with ebox in security considerations.
[10:34] <henning3> Hi. I'm trying to get my pc to connect to multible fullHD screens, but get an error that the virtual desktop is only 2048x2048, witch is not enough for two fullHD monitors ;-) Anyone that can point me in the direction of changing that setting? Google hasn't been friend so far :-(
[10:34] <bekks> ItsMeLenny: Then you better write a patch to the source code and recompile your own version.
[10:34] <ItsMeLenny> bekks, the version here states them http://linux.die.net/man/1/ppmtopcx
[10:35] <ItsMeLenny> unrecognized option `-stdpalette'
[10:35] <bekks> ItsMeLenny: So that man page does not match your ppmtopcx version.
[10:35] <ItsMeLenny> yeah, im going to cheat and just put a line of dots in the order in my image, that should fix it
[10:38] <ItsMeLenny> damn it, didnt fix it :P
[10:39] <tk_> hi
[10:39] <tk_> i have a problem:

[10:40] <tk_> wait, I solved it ;)
[10:43] <scathen^C> hey all trying to setup sendmail for the first time. i can successfully send emails from console, but have no idea how to set it up so i can receive emails. any help?

[10:43] <bekks> hmmm.

[10:47] <lotuspsychje> i have his screen and mouse pointer distortion every first boot on 13.04 clean install on driver radeon and older ati X800 grafix card: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=96jp7b&s=5 , any sugestions?
[10:48] <ikonia> lotuspsychje always worth checking the support of your card with the driver you are using
[10:49] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: well the funny part is, second boot it works flawless
[10:49] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, so it configured after the first boot then ...
[10:50] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: not sure how this happens exactly, wanna see xorg log or syslog?
[10:51] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, umm, nope.  I can't read that stuff.  WAY over my head.
[10:51] <bibi23> I have connected a device through USB on my computer, is it possible to directly send data to it?
[10:51] <cfhowlett> bibi23, "device" ?
[10:52] <bibi23> cfhowlett: it's a ticket printer
[10:53] <cfhowlett> bibi23, ah.  depending on drivers, etc., you should be able to communicate directly  ... which I'm guessing is NOT happening?
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: seems supported here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver X800 agp
[10:53] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: always a good start
[10:54] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, is there a "generic" setting available?
[10:54] <henning3> bibi23: You might already have got a serial device on /dev/serial/* or a parallel device on /dev/*. Have you tried to let cups detect new printers?
[10:54] <bibi23> cfhowlett: it's esc/pos compatible, from what I understand it can work without any driver (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESC/P) but I'm not sure?
[10:54] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: meaning?
[10:55] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, I was thinking perhaps there's a default "generic" setting
[10:56] <cfhowlett> bibi23, so have you tested it then?
[10:57] <bibi23> henning3: I'm on windows currently, I'm switching to ubuntu and come back to check
[10:57] <cfhowlett> bibi23, sounds like a plan.
[11:00] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: i think i might need a kernel update for this
[11:00] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: why do you think that ?
[11:00] <ItsMeLenny> DAMNIT, hex editing cuffles the colours too
[11:00] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, ow.  perhaps try a dist-upgrade first
[11:00] <RituS> I was trying to upload the public part of the key and encountered the following error: http://pastebin.com/QvDpp6Di . Could somebody help me with this?
[11:00] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: seems sortlike : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/556782
[11:01] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: are you using that kernel/card/drive ?
[11:01] <ikonia> driver
[11:01] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: driver radeon on X800 ati card
[11:01] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: are you using the same kernel/driver/card as in that bug ?
[11:02] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: not card, but similar isue
[11:02] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: then why do a random kernel update ?
[11:02] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: if you read the bug a fix was release to the 10.10 release, so anything after 10.10 should have that fix already in place
[11:03] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[11:03] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: 13.04, but i had same problem on previous versions aswell
[11:03] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: ok, so the fix was released to 10.10 - so the fix should be in 13.04 - so it is not the same issue, so why look at random kernel updates ?
[11:03] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: every time the same mouse corruption
[11:04] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: so ? why look at random kernel updates ?
[11:04] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27529
[11:04] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: that bug is closed
[11:04] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: so it is not the same bug,
[11:04] <fudus> all that means is that someone closed it, not that it was fixed
[11:04] <ikonia> fudus: "resolved fixed"
[11:04] <ikonia> RituS: and it details the fix
[11:04] <ikonia> oops
[11:04] <fudus> being marked as fixed doesn't mean it is actually fixed :P
[11:04] <ikonia> fudus: and it details the fix
[11:05] <ikonia> fudus: grow up - the bug is marked as fixed and the fix detailed
[11:05] <ikonia> fudus: stop putting nonsense comments into a discussion
[11:05] <bibi23> henning3: ok I've switched to ubuntu, sorry I don't remember where you told me to check the printer? is it /dev/sda* ?
 I am sorry?
[11:05] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: is it the open driver you are you are using ?
[11:06] <ikonia> RituS: apologies, hit tab to the wrong person
[11:06] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: driver is radeon
[11:06] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: is it the open driver you are you are using ?
[11:06] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: just to confirm
[11:06] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: driver that installed by default
[11:06] <henning3> bibi23: /dev/serial/* if it connects as a serial device
[11:06] <RituS> ikonia: yeah thats okay!
[11:07] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: ok, so the radion open driver was patched in 2.6.34 so as long as you are using a later kernel than that, the fix is already in your kernel
[11:07] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: so I have no idea why you think a kernel update  (to what kernel ??) will fix your problem
[11:07] <bibi23> henning3: it's connected with USB on the computer and RS 232 on the other side
[11:08] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: on previous ubuntu versions this issue dissapeared for me after an update, not sure indeed kernel upgrade did the trick...but what else?
[11:08] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: honestly just doing "random" things is not the way to fix it
[11:08] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: you need to find out where the problem is (most likley as you suggested in the radion xorg driver) so that's nothing to do with the kernel
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: i never said i was going to random one, just think i might..
[11:09] <henning3> bibi32 so you have a separate usb->serial adaptor?  Then the ought to be something in /dev/serial/*
[11:09] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: why ? what possibly reason do you think the kernel needs an update ? what even suggests that
[11:09] <crazyhorse> hi i want to have a bunch of external drives that are fully encrypted and that are readable/writable from windows/ubuntu and osx
[11:09] <crazyhorse> the maximum size of the external drive is 2TB
[11:09] <crazyhorse> additionally these drives will have to appear on the filesystems as normal mounts so i can do backups with standard software etc
[11:10] <crazyhorse> any suggestions on what to format them as and what encryption scheme to use?
[11:10] <ikonia> crazyhorse: you have a problem then as your cross file system support for linux/windows/macosx is pretty much "nill"
[11:10] <bibi23> henning3: right looks like i see it, when I switch put usb on I can see /dev/serial and when I remove I don't see it anymore
[11:10] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: i've tryed really many stuff on this issue, and kernel upgrade was one of the sugestions i got here in chat once...
[11:10] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: ok, so that's random as you have nothing to suggest the problem is with the kernel, nor that a kernel update will fix it
[11:10] <RituS> Hey I am having issues publishing the key on the ubuntu server. The following message was being displayed http://pastebin.com/3t2YxPza.
[11:11] <crazyhorse> ikonia: i don't mind installing software
[11:11] <czarzhan> #drupal-florida
[11:11] <czarzhan> gah
[11:11] <ikonia> crazyhorse: the file system is not software - it's the format the file are stored on, and there is no cross-platform-filesystem for windows/linux/macosx
[11:12] <crazyhorse> ikonia: for example i can have fully working NTFS on osx
[11:12] <henning3> bibi32: /dev/serial is a dir where the actual device can be found in subdirs. - I can access on od my connected phones as /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Sony_Ericsson_Sony_Ericsson_K750_35655xxxxxxxxxx_0-if01 What your device depends
[11:12] <ikonia> crazyhorse: sorry I just said there is "NO" cross platform file system for linux/macosx/windows
[11:13] <crazyhorse> ikonia: that wasn't my question
[11:13] <crazyhorse> has anyone tried ExFAT?
[11:13] <fudus> fat32 unless you want to do mroe than 2gb files?
[11:13] <dhanya> I got a bug i.e. a speeling mistake in a manpage of a command, i reported it. How do I proceed ?
[11:13] <ikonia> crazyhorse: it's not available on linux,
[11:13] <ikonia> crazyhorse: so it's not really something #ubuntu can help you with
[11:14] <crazyhorse> ikonia: i've just read in many forums that people are using ExFat with ubuntu
[11:14] <dhanya>  I got a bug i.e. a spelling mistake in a manpage of a command, i reported it. How do I proceed ?
[11:14] <bibi23> henning3: ah yep :) /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB-Serial_Controller_D-if00-port
[11:14] <fudus> oh encrypted
[11:14] <ikonia> crazyhorse: it's certainly not a "stable" supported solution
[11:14] <ikonia> crazyhorse: if you are happy with risking data loss, use it
[11:15] <ikonia> crazyhorse: the vfat file system mount process should work
[11:15] <crazyhorse> hmmm
[11:15] <ikonia> crazyhorse: from the docs
[11:15] <ikonia> crazyhorse: "Some distributions of Linux have begun to include support for exFAT. It is however, only available as a file system in user space, as it's not supported by the kernel"
[11:15] <ikonia> crazyhorse: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT
[11:16] <fudus> there was a leak of samsung's driver, which was done with ms's approval, but it may have legal issues
[11:16] <ikonia> fudus: please stop making things up
[11:16] <ikonia> fudus: there is no confirmation of Microsofts involvement
[11:16] <henning3> bibi23: but it might still be an idea to let cups handle the communication as a generic printer, and you can send pre-formatted data using ' echo ^XA^WD^XZ" | lpr -p ticketprinter ' ( sending a zpl label to the printer )
[11:16] <fudus> A non-FUSE implementation has also been released on GitHub[19], written by Samsung, however there is ongoing debate of the legality of this implementation as it appears it has been re-licensed without permission from Samsung[20][21].
[11:22] <bibi23> henning3: ok, the easiest the better, so I have to install "cups", then would I be able to have files as input to print tickets? for example like this one from the epson doc : http://pastebin.com/JdBfbUWC
[11:32] <BlitzHere> How do I start networking through recovery mode via command line
[11:32] <BlitzHere> The recovery option doesn't work
[11:32] <blockshadow> hellow
[11:33] <cfhowlett> blockshadow, hallew
[11:33] <BlitzHere> It just says my file system is clean and gets stuck
[11:40] <henning3> bibi23: cups is properbly already installed on your desktop. You just have to setup cups to know your printer. there is a passthru driver that simply passes everything directly to the printer so you can send pre-formatted data to the printer.

[11:46] <BlitzHere> Anyone?

[11:47] <dhanya> I got a bug and reported it -   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/secure-delete/+bug/1210967 . Could I just make a patchfile and upload it or do I have to do something else ?
[11:48] <MonkeyDust> crazyhorse  ntfs-3g
[11:48] <alvaro123> henning3: is there a way to find the ip? pinging the hostname doesnt seem to work
[11:50] <crazyhorse> MonkeyDust: nice, is it known to be stable?
[11:51] <MonkeyDust> crazyhorse  what do you want to do?

[12:05] <QuackQuacker> Hi im trying to setup a local server which serves a welcome page with apache2. This is working fine. Now i have setup a AP and would like when connected to it and asking for any adress (etc. test.com ) go to my localhost instead. I have tried googling around and looked and iptables, but without success.
[12:07] <cfhowlett> QuackQuacker, if no joy here, ask in #ubuntu-server
[12:07] <QuackQuacker> Thanks
[12:09] <henning3> bibi23: You have configured cups to use an epson driver witch is not installed. If you want to use preformated output (that is your application genereate the code directly you need to change the driver to generic ( if I remember correctly - I'm normally using printers with print-servers ;-) )
[12:09] <Dj_FlyBy> I'm looking for a VERY good dupe checker that has the ability to check across both multiple drives (internal & external) and also across the network?  ANY recommendations?
[12:13] <funky1> anyone knows if you can flip the screen in xawtv?
[12:13] <bibi23> henning3: I've installed it through ubuntu interface and picked up the recommanded driver, which was "Generic text-only printer"
[12:16] <funky1> nm
[12:17] <karthik__> clear
[12:18] <cfhowlett> karthik__, /clear   note the backslash
[12:20] <henning3> bibi23: Then it's the connection that is the problem. You need to connect it to /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB-Serial_Controller_D-if00-port or /dev/ttyUSB0 not epsontm:/xxxxxxx
[12:25] <Guest87222> Hi, I am trying to fix a bug  -https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/887525, downloaded  the branch , how can I proceed
[12:26] <bibi23> henning3: currently it's connected to "serial:/dev/ttyUSB0", so you mean it should be "file:/dev/ttyUSB0"?
[12:27] <jrib> Guest87222: http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/fixing-a-bug.html
[12:28] <dhanya> Do I have to use bzr diff to create a patch or can I straight away use diff, after downloading the source code .
[12:29] <jrib> dhanya: bzr diff is only useful if you are using bzr
[12:29] <dhanya> thanks jrib .
[12:30] <maximus-maximus2> guess what im the best #1 10th grader ever!!!
[12:34] <dhanya>   If using bzr , how do I create a patch for a downloaded source code ?
[12:35] <fartface> I have a list of torrents loaded in Transmission via the desktop, but I'd like to move them to transmission-daemon so that transmission runs at boot rather than having to open it.  When I load transmission via transmission-daemon, my torrents that were loaded via the desktop aren't there--does anyone know if there's a setting I need to switch or how I can get the same torrent list via the daemon as I have on the desktop?
[12:35] <henning3> bibi23: No that sounds correct. the problem is that I don't get where the " epsontm:" fits in.
[12:41] <bekks> henning3: epsontm:/dev/...
[12:43] <Guest56224> sorry i bessy now
[12:45] <Shiven> Hey all, anyone had an experience configuring xerces for ubuntu (13.04)?
[12:46] <bibi23> bekks: there is no such thing as "epsontm: " in the target, it's just the name I gave to this default printer, eg. "lpstat -v" outputs "device for epsontm: serial:/dev/ttyUSB0"
[12:51] <bibi23> henning3: I give up for today :(, anyway thanks for your help pointing me out to cups and so
[12:54] <henning3> bekks: Yes but he also write that destination was serial:/dev/..... elsewhere ;-)
[12:56] <Guest2832> Hi! I just connected a Canon camera. If I want too "see" it in the terminal, where to I cd too? =)
[12:56] <bekks> Guest2832: Take a look at dmesg
[12:58] <crazyhorse> I've got a drive that's listed as FAT (32-bit version_ EFI System Parition and i am unable to delete any of the files
[12:58] <crazyhorse> or write to the drive
[12:58] <crazyhorse> any idea why this would be?
[12:59] <yeats> crazyhorse: are you getting any error messages?
[12:59] <crazyhorse> yeah permission errors
[12:59] <crazyhorse> you don't have permission to access xyz
[13:00] <crazyhorse> it's mounted as a Read-only file system
[13:00] <crazyhorse> rm: cannot remove `vpn-mf9_ovpn142_account (1).ovpn': Read-only file system
[13:00] <zykotick9> crazyhorse: i'm not sure you should be messing with the "EFI System Parition", just sayin'
[13:00] <yeats> crazyhorse: sounds like you've got your reasons right there ;-)
[13:00] <crazyhorse> ah ok
[13:01] <crazyhorse> maybe i can just copy everything off and format it
[13:01] <zykotick9> crazyhorse: i'd guess, it's required to boot your computer...  i wouldn't mess with it!
[13:01] <crazyhorse> it's in an external harddrive
[13:01] <crazyhorse> it's not for booting
[13:01] <zykotick9> crazyhorse: oh...
[13:02] <crazyhorse> i'd prefer if i could mount it as a rw parition
[13:02] <SuperLag> Is it bad to always to dist-upgrade, rather than just upgrade?
[13:02] <SuperLag> s/to/do
[13:03] <yeats> crazyhorse: if it's not taking up much space, I'd just leave it, but that's just me
[13:03] <Guest2832> bekks:  Ok, did that. Gave me a ton of text, not sure if I found any line that spoke of any camera. What should I look for?
[13:03] <yeats> !dist-upgrade | SuperLag
[13:05] <bekks> Guest2832: The device node your camera is connected to.
[13:05] <bekks> Guest2832: Why do you want to see the ls -lha of the device node?
[13:07] <Guest2832> bekks:  Hm, ok. Not a 100% what that means. Not sure why I want to, a little bit because I am curious. I was hoping I was gonna see it as a disk, like /dev/video1 or something. Is that not how it works?
[13:07] <crazyhorse> hey does ubuntu have anything as good as picasa or close too?
[13:07] <bekks> Guest2832: No, its not. You can see a device node - but unlike a disk, you cannot mount it.
[13:07] <crazyhorse> with facial detection etc?
[13:07] <bekks> crazyhorse: digikam.
[13:08] <Guest2832> bekks:  Ok! So there is no more exat way of telling, form the cli, if the camera is connected properly?
[13:08] <bekks> Guest2832: No.
[13:10] <crazyhorse> bekks: nice..how goods the facial detection?
[13:12] <bekks> crazyhorse: It works.
[13:16] <iceroot_> Guest2832: you want the camera asa disc or as a webcam?
[13:16] <iceroot_> Guest2832: so you want to find out were you can find the mounted disk?
[13:27] <robin0800> Guest2832, Try media folder
[13:29] <Guest2832> iceroot_:  I want to see if the camera is working, and recognized by the system.
[13:29] <Guest2832> robin0800:  Where is that?
[13:30] <robin0800> Guest2832, in the file system
[13:34] <Hexagonite> Anyone know how to set-up a Hotspot on Ubuntu for Android devices to connect?
[13:35] <Dj_FlyBy> I'm looking for a VERY good dupe checker that has the ability to check across both multiple drives (internal & external) and also across the network?  ANY recommendations?
[13:36] <jrib> Dj_FlyBy: fdupes?
[13:37] <Dj_FlyBy> jrib: Works "ok" for local drives, but cannot get it to work across the network....  Same thing with FSlint
[13:38] <crazyhorse> i've got some files currently copying from one drive to another
[13:38] <crazyhorse> how do i show the dialog which indicates the progress?
[13:45] <Guest2832> robin0800:  "in the filesystem"... Doesnt really say me much. How do i cd there?
[13:46] <Guest56224> Hey ! guys i want install KDE on ubuntu How i do

[13:53] <Guest56224> guys How i install flag keyboard in KDE
[13:53] <blz> Is apache2 installed by default?
[13:53] <blz> I don't remember installing it at any point...
[13:54]  * blz suspects the NSA, since clearly it's them...
[13:54] <mnf> Hi... I have a problem with my Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS i686 and with flash N900
[13:55] <blz> mnf, you should describe the problem =)
[13:55] <mateobur> Hello
[13:55] <Guest2832> robin0800:  What do you mean with that?! "cd /media/"?
[13:55] <mateobur> I can't enable sharing options on my directories under ubuntu 13.04
[13:55] <mateobur> "Sharing service installation failed"
[13:56] <blz> mateobur, I think you have to install samba or NFS or something in order to share directories.  I could be mistaken, though
[13:56] <blz> mateobur, but that's worth looking into
[13:56] <mnf> yes, sorry for my English... i'm from Italy :p yesterday i connect my mobile with the usb device. Now i can't start the N900
[13:56] <mateobur> blz, I know the thing is that ubuntu offers to install the service, but when you click on install, it fails xD
[13:57] <blz> mateobur, yeah that brings back painful memories
[13:57] <blz> mateobur, try installing samba and smbfs
[13:57] <blz> mateobur, and then it should work
[13:57] <blz> mateobur, *should* being the operative word =)
[13:57] <blz> mateobur, `sudo apt-get install samba smbfs`
[13:57] <mateobur> smbfs
[13:57] <mateobur> doesn't exist
[13:58] <mateobur> in the repos
[13:58] <lvleph> I have a weird question about moving files. I want to turn off the extents flag in my ext4 partition and then move the files, so that I can mount as ext3.
[13:58] <lvleph> If I mv a folder are the files moved too?
[13:58] <blz> mateobur, try without it... must be an old backage from back in the day =)
[13:58] <mateobur> :D
[13:58] <djiefo> How do I change the text box color and the text color? I installed a nice desktop theme through Tweak Tool but i can't just read myself back because the text color and the box are almost the same.
[13:58] <mateobur> I need to restart session, bye!
[13:58] <lvleph> Or do I need to mv every file?
[13:59] <blz> mnf, I belive there's #ubuntu-it for Italian speakers =)
[13:59] <blz> mnf, although your English is certainly better than my Italian =D
[13:59] <blz> mateobur, you don't!
[13:59] <CYR4N01> So I was having an issue with nvidia proprietary drivers the other day. Where I was getting a blinking underscore on a black screen. I was informed of adding nomodeset to grub. I did this and now I no longer see the black screen. However nvidia doesn't seem to be using the proprietary driver and is stuck at 800x600 resolution.
[13:59] <Sling> the only Italian I know is from Family Guy ;)
[13:59] <blz> mateobur, try `sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart`
[13:59] <blz> or start instead of restart, potentially
[14:01] <mnf> yes but no one can help me there
[14:01] <lvleph> blz restart will start it if it hasn't already
[14:02] <blz> lvleph, that was my feeling as well, but I wasn't sure =)
[14:04] <mnf> on #ubuntu-it they told me: go to onother chat like #n9 #n900 #mer.... but are all empty chat!
[14:04] <k1l_> !alis | mnf
[14:06] <lvleph> I have a weird question about moving files. I want to turn off the extents flag in my ext4 partition and then move the files, so that I can mount as ext3.
[14:06] <lvleph> If I mv a folder are the files moved too?
[14:06] <doktorbrain>  /msg alis list #ubuntu
[14:06] <lvleph> Or do I have to move each file individually?
[14:06] <blz> lvleph, normally yes, mv moves files and folders recursively
[14:07] <blz> lvleph, but I have no idea of modifying the extents flag changes anything
[14:07] <blz> lvleph, can't you just try it and see?
[14:07] <fris> i ran into an issue with ubuntu, i run it in vmare fusion, and all of a sudden when i rebooted the machine, it starts up with a memtest, i rant it, when rebooting again, it just does an infinite loop, anyway to fix this without the install cd?
[14:07] <lvleph> If you turn off extents and then mv around files you should now be able to mount as ext3
[14:07] <lvleph> from my understanding
[14:08] <lvleph> Yeah, I was going to.
[14:08] <lvleph> Figured I would ask while I was completing some other operations
[14:09] <lvleph> fris: you should be able to get into the grub menu and skip the mentest
[14:09] <fris> ya i can get into grub, how would i skip the mem test and reboot so the ubuntu shows on the menu, right now in the grub menu it just shows memtest
[14:09] <lvleph> fris: to access grub menu hold the left shift button (if I recall correctly)
[14:09] <lvleph> at boot
[14:10] <lvleph> hmmm
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> fris: are there kernels installed?
[14:10] <fris> ya
[14:10] <lvleph> you can boot from live disk and do a grub-install
[14:10] <fris> it was after i did a dist-upgrade
[14:10] <lvleph> maybe grub got screwed
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> fris: If you see no kernels in Grub you may need to chroot to the installed OS from liveCD to run:   sudo update-grub
[14:11] <lvleph> sorry fris  ActionParsnip has the correct command
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> fris: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/09/live-usb-sticking-grub-2-video
[14:11] <fris> so no way to do it without the cd?
[14:12] <lvleph> If you could mount the image and edit the grub file directly fris
[14:12] <fris> maybe i will just reinstall ubuntu ;), i only had it running apache and mysql for local dev anyway nothing of importance was on it
[14:13] <lvleph> mounting the disk image should be easy from vmware
[14:13] <lvleph> been a while, so...
[14:14] <mnf> I think i'm going to be mad... but thank you :)
[14:14] <dragoonis> I installed 'nginx' package with apt-get. but when i try to do 'service nginx start' it doesn't output anything to STDOUT
[14:14] <dragoonis> but when i do 'service nginx stop' it says '[OK]'
[14:14] <lvleph> mfs what are you trying to do? I haven't seen any questions.
[14:14] <lvleph> mnf^
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> fris: why reinstall, only the bootloader is faulty
[14:14] <lvleph> can't type
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> fris: plus reinstalling will also need the liveCD
[14:15] <dragoonis> Sorry, I DC'd there, did anyone reply to my question?
[14:15] <fris> ya i have the vmware ubuntu 13 image
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> fris: there is no 'Ubuntu 13'
[14:15] <dakotawulfy> have an easy question for some one  wminput  needs sudo would it be a problem to make it work with out sudo?? or would that cause a security problem
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> dragoonis: are there any bugs reported?
[14:15] <fris> 13.04 i mean
[14:16] <dragoonis> ActionParsnip, not that i know of
[14:16] <fris> this one http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/#ubuntu13.04
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> fris: the guide is quite simple. Your last kernel update seems to have screwed up Grub, if you manually run 'sudo update-grub' it will populate Grub with Kernels (if some are present)
[14:17] <dragoonis> ActionParsnip, nothing in the error_log
[14:17] <fris> k thanks will try that
[14:17] <Sebo> Hi, I need a simple and secure LDAP service implementation for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (mainly for gerrit @ localhost). Can you point me to the one proffered by yourself.
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> fris: yes, that is 13.04 codenamed 'Raring'. "ubuntu 13" doesnt exist
[14:17] <fris> my bad ;)
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> dragoonis: maybe the service file needs updating to output to the screen. You could check to see if it is missed
[14:18] <dragoonis> ActionParsnip, this is a fresh install i just literally ran apt-get on LAMP stuff.
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> dragoonis: then I suggest you report a bug
[14:19] <dragoonis> ActionParsnip, ok
[14:19] <Bejo> !seen vino
[14:19] <snufft> has anyone got eyefinity running on 13.04? I can't seem to find much through google for setting it up.  I've got my screens set to "multi-desktop display, with display(s) 2, 3" but games will still only run in a single screen
[14:20] <snufft> there's also multiple problems with fullscreen apps like chrome, banshee, etc, flickering like crazy
[14:20] <ocooel> How safe is it to set up accounts in Gwibber and Empathy..?
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> ocooel: in what sense
[14:22] <ocooel> ActionParsnip: I read there was a security vulnerability with gnome-online-accounts. How secure are these connections..?
[14:23] <dragoonis> ActionParsnip,
[14:23] <dragoonis> I got it working, there was an issue with the default sites-available/default file, but also nginx fails to start if you don't  do it as 'root'
[14:23] <dragoonis> Really they should be saying 'Permission denied, unable to restart nginx'
[14:23] <ChrisMaQ> can anyone tell me where to get a stable version of skype for ubuntu 12.04
[14:23] <jrib> !skype | ChrisMaQ
[14:23] <SkyDreamer> !help
[14:24] <ChrisMaQ> thanks let me check
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> dragoonis: then you have found a bug
[14:25] <ocooel> ChrisMaQ: There's always http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> ocooel: I'd imagine they will use whatever is suitable for the service. Are there any bugs reported?
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> ChrisMaQ: if you have the partner repo enabled, you can install the app like any other
[14:26] <ocooel> ActionParsnip: Let me ask the question a different way. Do you use Empathy or Gwibber to connect to your social networks or as IM?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> ocooel: gwibber connects to your twitter feed and gives live alerts on new tweets
[14:27] <popit> anyone can help me use kali linux?
[14:27] <popit> i mean people on #kali-linux is not very helpful
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> popit: ask in #kali-linux
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> popit: its not supported here
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> popit  wrong channel, not supported here
[14:27] <popit> ok
[14:28] <ocooel> ActionParsnip: Yes. I guess it's a vague question - more suited to a security channel..?
[14:28] <ChrisMaQ> i get this error when executing the first step of installing skype
[14:28] <ChrisMaQ> dpkg: error: unknown option --add-architecture
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> ocooel: possibly. I would look at bug reports to see if there are known security issues
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> ChrisMaQ: did you use the partner repo?
[14:29] <ChrisMaQ> is that where u select the option in the software center?
[14:29] <MonkeyDust> ChrisMaQ  sudo apt-get install skype should do the trick, after you activated the source
[14:29] <HAWiese> Moin, moin!
[14:29] <HAWiese> Moin, moin!
[14:29] <ChrisMaQ> oki let me try
[14:29] <iceroot_> ChrisMaQ: on ubuntu mutliarch should be enabled by default, only on debian it is missing
[14:29] <iceroot_> HAWiese: moin
[14:30] <ChrisMaQ> ok im installing now ... thanks for the help hope it works bug free this time
[14:30] <ocooel> ActionParsnip: Where can I find the bug reports? On ubuntu or the app-specific sites? Bugzilla..? Sorry, I have moved to ubuntu from opensuse.
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> ocooel: launchpad
[14:31] <MonkeyDust> ocooel  what did you read and where?
[14:31] <iceroot_> ocooel: you will all bugreports on launchpad
[14:31] <iceroot_> !bug | ocooel
[14:34] <iceroot_> ocooel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/PACKAGENAME

[14:35] <streulma> finally got my Ubuntu 13.04 working on my Macbook Pro Retina. If there are people here with a Retina, I can help!
[14:36] <funky1> putin is a douchebag
[14:36] <ocooel> Thanks guys - there's definately more help than opensuse irc :-)
[14:37] <ocooel> MonkeyDust: This is where I read it - http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-1779-1/ - there is an update there, but I thought I'd ask the pro's in irc.
[14:39] <ocooel> Does this mean that I can report bugs right here in irc..? - ubuntu-bug <package>
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> streulma: i have a retina, one in each eye :)
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> ocooel: run that in a terminal and it will start the process
[14:40] <ocooel> That's cool
[14:42] <ocooel> MonkeyDust: Did you read it..?
[14:44] <dakotawulfy> wminput  needs sudo would it be a problem to make it work with out sudo?? would that cause a security issue?
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> dakotawulfy: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/wminput.1.html    shows how you can make it not need sudo.....
[14:47] <MonkeyDust> ocooel  yes, just to know it was not some random message, somewhere
[14:47] <dakotawulfy> ActionParsnip thanks
[14:47] <MonkeyDust> ocooel  but I don't use social media myself
[14:48] <goaw_> hello. I'm a novice programmer, though I've not yet written any programs specifically for linux really. What language would I need to write a program for learning a language with a flash-card-type thing?
