[00:00] <GTB3NW> It's possible in windows through local GP's
[00:00] <GTB3NW> can't find an admin guide for the linux client
[00:00] <uBUXUBu> omg
[00:00] <uBUXUBu> what kind of private key
[00:01] <Bray90820> A while back someone sent me a ling to slowing down the accelration on my magic mouse
[00:01] <Bray90820> does anyone know what that link might be
[00:01] <lickalott> http://askubuntu.com/questions/172972/configure-mouse-speed-not-pointer-acceleration
[00:02] <jhutchins> GTB3NW: Microsoft doesn't exactly want to let you control it.
[00:02] <GTB3NW> they do on windows apparently
[00:02] <jhutchins> GTB3NW: There's nothing to stop you from cutting-and-pasting the key here.
[00:02] <jhutchins> GTB3NW: Not exactly Microsoft's fault.
[00:03] <GTB3NW> looks like they don't have any options to disable features in anything but windows -.-
[00:03] <GTB3NW> jhutchins, not plain text
[00:03] <GTB3NW> actual file
[00:03] <GTB3NW> it sent the whole damn file, luckily it wasn't important
[00:03] <GTB3NW> I didn't even have to hit enter
[00:03] <jhutchins> GTB3NW: I think you can delete the part between "options" and "windows".
[00:03] <refefer> hi there, I'm having trouble with bluetooth tethering to my phone since a recent update
[00:03] <refefer> here is the log I now get when I try to connect: http://pastebin.com/MAXqNP75
[00:03] <jhutchins> GTB3NW: Yeah, drag and drop is such a great feature.
[00:03] <refefer> any ideas?
[00:04] <GTB3NW> -.-
[00:04] <GTB3NW> fuck ms for ruining a great app
[00:04] <jhutchins> GTB3NW: I had a client who kept loosing all his files when he got a trackpad, he'd drag them to random folders by mistake.
[00:04] <GTB3NW> lmao
[00:04] <IdleOne> GTB3NW: No swearing please
[00:04] <GTB3NW> well I was copy text from irc
[00:04] <GTB3NW> okay
[00:04] <GTB3NW> and hit ctrl v
[00:04] <lickalott> !language | GTB3NW
[00:04] <GTB3NW> didn't even have chance to check it was correct
[00:05] <GTB3NW> it just sent it straight up -.-
[00:05] <Bray90820> lickalott: that was not it
[00:05] <lickalott> only reason I know that command is because it's been used on me like 30 times....  :P
[00:05] <GTB3NW> and the linux client cannot cancel downloads :)
[00:05] <lickalott> I just did a simple google search and threw the first one at you Bray90820.
[00:05] <Bray90820> Tgat's alright you tried
[00:07] <fionnan> Just upgraded through a prompt from 10.04 to 12.04.3 and now ethernet doesn't work although it did on 10.04, any ideas?
[00:07] <glitsj16> Bray90820: if you remember the day that occured you could track it down on http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ ..
[00:08] <dekiss> how can I see line numbers where strig was found in files if I use grep?
[00:08] <g0bl1n> dekiss, have you tried ack-grep ?
[00:09] <Bray90820> Thanks
[00:09] <Bray90820> glitsj16: thanks
[00:09] <necrogami> KI7MT, Got it working and my home/away scripts built :D
[00:09] <dekiss> g0bl1n whats that
[00:09] <g0bl1n> dekiss, grep mode in awesome
[00:10] <g0bl1n> dekiss, try apt-get install ack-grep
[00:10] <g0bl1n> easier than grep
[00:10] <g0bl1n> its in the repos
[00:10] <dekiss> i use -n but not working -_-
[00:10] <dekiss> ahh
[00:10] <dekiss> g0bl1n already preinstalled in ubinti 11?
[00:10] <g0bl1n> yes
[00:11] <dekiss> pls how can I find line numbers with it?
[00:11] <glitsj16> Bray90820: i do have an odd memory of you asking here about mouse sensitivity and a script running at login or something, but alas no clue when that was ..
[00:11] <g0bl1n> pre ? don't think so... can't remember. But a simple apt-get install will do :)
[00:11] <g0bl1n> dekiss, just ack-grep string
[00:11] <pieces029> Hello everyone.  I own my own domain and would like to setup a server to be able to have my own domain email address, for example<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and would just like these emails to be forwarded to my gmail account.  I have been researching how to do this with exim4, but was wondering if there was a really good tutorial for this out there already?
[00:11] <Bray90820> glitsj16: oh well
[00:12] <GTB3NW> pieces029, would you like google to handle your emails totally?
[00:12] <dekiss> i got it working I misplaced it g0bl1n :) thanks buddy!
[00:12] <GTB3NW> as in you can login to your @example domain on google..
[00:12] <g0bl1n> :)
[00:13] <pieces029> GTB3NW, oh no.  I would login to my gmail but see emails sent to other addresses.
[00:13] <g0bl1n> dekiss, doing "ack-grep string" will show line numbers, with color :)
[00:13] <g0bl1n> per file
[00:13] <GTB3NW> okay so it's not strictly a relay
[00:13] <g0bl1n> with the highlited string
[00:14] <g0bl1n> its grep in awesome mode :)
[00:14] <GTB3NW> pieces029, I don't know how to do what you want, but if you change your mind, check out google apps for business
[00:14] <Bray90820> What channel is this in the logs
[00:15] <pieces029> GTB3NW, Yeah I don't want to pay google money.
[00:16] <glitsj16> Bray90820: #ubuntu, way down in the log directory
[00:16] <GTB3NW> are you non-profit?
[00:16] <pieces029> GTB3NW, I guess.  It's not for a non-profit oganization or anything
[00:16] <Bray90820> Ahh i foubd it
[00:16] <Bray90820> Thanks
[00:17] <GTB3NW> ahh, you must be a registered organisation if you want to use it for free
[00:17] <GTB3NW> sorry
[00:17] <GTB3NW> https://support.google.com/nonprofits/answer/3215869
[00:17] <GTB3NW> check it anyway
[00:19] <mmazing_> heyo, i seem to have borked my system in some way, and can't figure out what's going wrong exactly
[00:19] <mmazing_> i removed a bunch of old kernel packages that were taking up a ton of space
[00:19] <harushimo> I'm trying to setup an kvm on ubuntu
[00:20] <harushimo> I installed qemu and virt-manager
[00:20] <mmazing_> computer was working for quite a while after that, but when i finally rebooted it won't finish booting (although it does load the kernel)
[00:20] <harushimo> I used virt-manager but I get an error
[00:20] <bekks> mmazing_: Maybe you removed the current kernel?
[00:20] <mmazing_> bekks: it does load the current kernel, i can see syslogs and whatnot
[00:20] <Roy_Easel> I have recently installed Lubuntu 13.10 x64, but cannot get any sound output through HDMI, using Radeon HD 4250 graphics.  I searched the web for this and tried using the 'radeon.audio=1' kernel parameter, but with no effect.  Any suggestions?
[00:20] <mmazing_> i can chroot to that drive as wel
[00:20] <mmazing_> well*
[00:21] <mmazing_> Roy_Easel, there's a program i installed that fixed that for me, one sec ill see if i can figure out what it is
[00:23] <banderaz> need help with ubuntu 10.4 live cd anyone?
[00:24] <mmazing_> hmmm, i think i figured out my kernel issue
[00:24] <bekks> !ask | banderaz
[00:24] <Beldar> banderaz, The desktop is end of life, what is you goal here?
[00:24] <bekks> mmazing_: Whats was/is it?
[00:24] <mmazing_> last line in boot.log is "Starting VirtualBox kernel modules"
[00:24] <Oli> banderaz: Throw it out the window. It's ancient and unsupported and dangerously behind on security updates.
[00:24] <mmazing_> i bet virtualbox needed an older kernel
[00:24] <mmazing_> i'll try and remove virtualbox and see if that helps
[00:24] <bekks> mmazing_: then chroot and update the vbox modules.
[00:25] <mmazing_> i don't use it anyway, i've been using kvm and qemu, so just gonna remove it i think
[00:25] <mmazing_> Roy_Easel: search for PulseAudio Volume Control and install that
[00:26] <mmazing_> Roy_Easel: you can select processes that are running that are outputting sound, and change what they are outputting to
[00:26] <mmazing_> so when you play a video, vlc (or whatever you use) will be on the list and you can change it to hdmi
[00:27] <mmazing_> weird ... chroot isn't working with apt
[00:28] <mmazing_> Can't open /dev/null: Permission denied
[00:29] <gordonjcp> mmazing_: interesting
[00:29] <banderaz> ok. i running ubuntu LTS 10.4 as live cd since the hdd is busted on my laptop. need to connect the huawei E1552 usb modem, tried the following link (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1502797 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1481930) . will it work running live or only if installed??
[00:30] <gordonjcp> banderaz: 10.04 is not supported
[00:31] <john_rambo> I have a VM running 12.04. I have installed dquid-deb-proxy-client on it and squid-deb-proxy on the host ............I want the VM to receive updates only from the host .....How to do this ?
[00:32] <KI7MT> banderaz: pop 10.04 server CD in and you get support until APR-2015 .. just install one of the desktops and yuor good to go
[00:33] <kostkon> KI7MT, the desktop packages are not getting any updates though
[00:33] <Birdman3131> I need some help installing ubuntu. Was going to install using wubi but it is asking if I want to uninstall. When I click yes it gives me an error of https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36703262/wubi.png The log can be found at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36703262/wubi-11.10-rev245.log  Now I do have a partition with ubuntu on it that is abandoned due to no boot loader pointing at it. I also have no flash drive or cd drive at the moment so
[00:33] <Birdman3131> unless I can use the windows 7 bootloader to point at my ubuntu partition or get wubi going I am out of luck.
[00:33] <banderaz> ok. i running ubuntu LTS 10.4 as live cd since the hdd is busted on my laptop. need to connect the huawei E1552 usb modem, tried the following link (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1502797 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1481930) . will it work running live or only if installed??
[00:35] <KI7MT> kostkon: ok, world not gonna spin backwards cuz he doen't get desktop update, but the statement that 10.04 is not supported, in not entirely accurate, 10.04 desktop is EOL, not the server.
[00:36] <mdpatrick> Hi -- I can't reach my node server on my ubuntu machine from my local network, but it works fine if I view the page on port 8000 on the ubuntu machine
[00:36] <kostkon> KI7MT, yes, but support has ended for a good percentage of the 10.04  packages
[00:36] <mdpatrick> I can't figure out if its iptables, or ufw, or what's going on
[00:36] <bitbyte> hey guys any of you guys know how to kill zombie processes
[00:36] <bekks> bitbyte: There is no way to kill them, thats why they are kalled zombies.
[00:37] <bekks> bitbyte: Rebooting is the only way.
[00:37] <bekks> *called
[00:37] <banderaz> KI7MT. i can not install ubuntu on my laptop (busted hdd)
[00:37] <KI7MT> kostkon: ok, and ?
[00:37] <ukn33> Anyone here good at compiling? I'm having trouble with WabbitEmu and am not experienced enough to know what's wrong
[00:37] <ukn33> https://code.google.com/p/wxwabbitemu/
[00:37] <ItsMeLenny> is there somewhere i can explore the ubuntu .so's
[00:38] <bitbyte> thats fine was just wondering if there is a way to kill the parent which got stuck but I'm working remotely right now so will wait tomorrow for a reboot
[00:38] <bitbyte> thanks bekks
[00:38] <goncalo_> anyone experiencing untrusted packages during the upgrade or install when using ubuntu's gb mirror? could the server have been hacked?
[00:38] <bekks> bitbyte: The parent got killed already, thats why it is a zombie.
[00:38] <KI7MT> banderaz: that is probably somehtign you want to get fixed, as runnign LiveCD's gets to be a pain after a while.
[00:38] <kostkon> KI7MT, nothing, i am not sure why we are arguing about that to begin with
[00:38] <bitbyte> beaks ill have to give the ubuntu page on it another read and get to grips with it a bit more
[00:38] <bitbyte> bekks *
[00:38] <bekks> bitbyte: the process is still running while its parent isnt anymore.
[00:39] <bitbyte> beaks i'm also trying to trim my sshd config to the bare minimum needed know any decent guides ?
[00:39] <bitbyte> bekks *
[00:39] <bitbyte> argh why am i putting an "a" in haha
[00:39] <Birdman3131> I need some help installing ubuntu. Was going to install using wubi but it is asking if I want to uninstall. When I click yes it gives me an error of https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36703262/wubi.png The log can be found at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36703262/wubi-11.10-rev245.log Now I do have a partition with ubuntu on it that is abandoned due to no boot loader pointing at it. I also have no flash drive or cd drive at the moment so unless
[00:39] <Birdman3131>  I can use the windows 7 bootloader to point at my ubuntu partition or get wubi going I am out of luck.
[00:40] <bitbyte> I've got my config down to this trimming the comments http://pastebin.com/ayWUmKnr and wanna see if i can get rid of some more all i'm wanting is RSA and password auth and going to just be using terminal on my mac to connect
[00:40] <Beldar> Birdman3131, You can use grub to boot both if you install correctly.
[00:41] <gordonjcp> Birdman3131: don't use wubi, it is no longer supported
[00:41] <Birdman3131> Beldar: I don't have any flash drives or a working dvd drive though to fix grub
[00:41] <KI7MT> bitbyte: bare minimum and secure dont always see eye to eye .. and it's more often than not, personal preference, that said, here's a few ideas from the Nix boys: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-unix-bsd-openssh-server-best-practices.html
[00:41] <gordonjcp> Birdman3131: 24-hour tesco, 4GB drive for about £2.50
[00:41] <gordonjcp> seriously
[00:41] <bitbyte> thanks man much appreciated :)
[00:41] <gordonjcp> there's no excuse... ;-)
[00:43] <ukn33> Can anyone here help me compile WabbitEMU?
[00:43] <ukn33> <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:43] <ukn33> ignore that
[00:43] <bitbyte> KI7MT I've actually got the ssh_config down to http://pastebin.com/cZNLGFFp just need to trim the sshd_config more
[00:43] <FloodBot1> ukn33: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:43] <ukn33> wrong
[00:43] <Birdman3131> gordonjcp: Im without a car and not walking 1.5 hours in sub freezing weather just to go buy a flash drive. I don't mind being told that it is the only way but don't try telling me to go get one if I don't have one.
[00:43] <morten77> the volume control in bottom right corner (in ubuntu10.04) is that pulseaudios tool or? how can I find out what program actually that shows it?
[00:44] <ukn33> Can someone help me get a compilation of wabbitemu(https://code.google.com/p/wxwabbitemu/) working?
[00:44] <KI7MT> bitbyte: I suppose, without know the reason why it needs to be trimmed to x,y,z .. we'd be gussing, what's the goal of trimming it down ?
[00:44] <Beldar> Birdman3131, When you power on the computer do you get a boot menu or does it go straight to windows
[00:44] <morten77> (uhh.. or maybe it is in top right pannel to begin with)
[00:45] <Birdman3131> Beldar: I can get to the windows 7 boot loader but grub is no longer accessable.
[00:45] <bitbyte> KI7MT I'm working on the theory that If I don't need the functionality of most of the options the no reason to have them defined. Less open doors the more secure ?
[00:45] <Birdman3131> I might be able to find a 1gb flash drive. I did use to have one.
[00:45] <morten77> I have a small problem with the volume control in the bottom right corner... if you click at the lower end of the drag thing in the sliders to drag change volume instead it jumps away to larger volume.
[00:45] <Beldar> Birdman3131, Get to, is this a uefi computer?
[00:46] <Sazpaimon__> trying to boot an ubuntu live usb on my macbookpro. I'm getting weird colors, almost as if the screen was physically damaged
[00:46] <Birdman3131> Beldar: No. its still one bios.
[00:46] <Beldar> !nomodeset | Sazpaimon__
[00:46] <Sazpaimon__> it's a retina display, for the record
[00:46] <Birdman3131> on not one
[00:46] <KI7MT> bitbyte: well .. most srv admins would probably say tha'ts a tad off the mark, the options provide specific functionality that you either need or want, and each should be reviewed for it's own merits.
[00:46] <Sazpaimon__> oh right, i havent tired nomodeset yet
[00:47] <Beldar> Birdman3131, So you have a ubuntu install in a ext type partition, not a wubi file in a partition, easybcd will boot a install in a ext partition.
[00:47] <bitbyte> KI7MT agreed, Need to really go through the man page. Will be working a lot more in the morning on it when I'm not working remotely
[00:47] <gordonjcp> Birdman3131: got an SD card and external reader?
[00:47] <KI7MT> bitbyte: If you dont want it, or dont think you need a particular funtion, disable it, but at least read up on the potential security impacts of doing so before hand.
[00:47] <kostkon> morten77, probably it's time to upgrade to 12.04
[00:48] <bitbyte> KI7MT thanks for the advice :)
[00:48] <morten77> I don't like the way ubuntu have changed really
[00:48] <KI7MT> bitbyte: following the best practices from a security stadpoint is probably a pretty good guuide, as you can avoid soem common pitfalls.
[00:49] <kostkon> morten77, you can upgrade to 12.04 and then install the gnome-fallback session
[00:49] <morten77> maybe I try debian directly later intead with lxde or mate
[00:49] <Birdman3131> Beldar: Ill try that. I do have easy bcd installed. (My set up is windows 7 and a ubuntu partition. I could not get to the partition so I was going to try wubi but it errored out.)
[00:49] <morten77> something I really would love is if ubuntu had a 10 years LTS version though.
[00:50] <bitbyte> KI7MT yeh i'll be giving it a good look over tomorrow, I did have it working fine but I had an issue and had to reinstall and ran into the bug where 13.10 ubuntu won't recognize USB input to reinstall so had to install 12.04 LTS then do do-release-upgrade -d and accidentally jumped to 14.04 :/ so dealing with setting everything back up.
[00:50] <Beldar> Birdman3131, windows wont read an extension type partition without drivers and not really a normal way to do it, try easybcd.
[00:50] <Birdman3131> morten77: Then it would have all the issues that XP has. People hanging on to it too many years later
[00:50] <bitbyte> the physical server doesn't have PS2 support so couldn't seem to get 13.10 installing :'(
[00:51] <morten77> I really don't want to upgrade os every 3 years. and I certainly won't get a win8 for my windows needs just because ms eol's winXP in 2014
[00:51] <kostkon> morten77, all lts versions after 10.04 are for 5 years
[00:51] <morten77> ah, ok that nice
[00:52] <Birdman3131> Beldar: I was not trying to read off it just to get some form of linux working. And a VM does not work because the program I want to use need actual hardware access not fake access.
[00:52] <ikeboy> I'm trying to run isomaster and I get this error when I select an iso "Failed to read directory tree: 'No posix extentions found' can anyone help me?
[00:53] <kostkon> !info isomaster
[00:53] <Beldar> Birdman3131, I have seen claims that adding the ubuntu to the bcd menu does work, never tried it nor know how but there is a user on the ##windows channel now, I have seen recommend this
[00:53] <Birdman3131> Ill try it.
[00:54] <ikeboy> Birdman3131, I use ubuntu with EasyBCD and Windows 7
[00:56] <Sazpaimon__> Beldar, nomodeset gives me a black screen after plymouth
[00:57] <Beldar> Sazpaimon__, I have never booted on an apple, so my stock response here is have you checked the md5sum?
[00:58] <Beldar> you can do a text boot I believe from a live environment and see if it's failing/errors
[00:59] <Beldar> I surprised plymouth shows in nomodeset
[00:59] <Beldar> I'm*
[00:59] <Beldar> afk
[00:59] <Sazpaimon__> Beldar, I can access the console with ctrl+alt+f1
[00:59] <Sazpaimon__> but i only have wifi available so I cant do much here
[01:05] <ikeboy> Does anyone know about the error I got?
[01:06] <Beldar> Sazpaimon__, console as in tty?
[01:07] <jbastias> who
[01:08] <Beldar> Sazpaimon__, I assume you have seen this but just passing on if not. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[01:08] <birdman313131> Beldar: It worked. Thanks for the help. Now to update this thing from  2010.
[01:09] <Beldar> birdman313131, 2010, what release is that?
[01:10] <birdman313131> Beldar: 10.04 LTS lucid lynx. I know it was 2010 from one of the pages that showed up when firefox restored session.
[01:11] <Beldar> birdman313131, Cool, the repos or closed for 2010, however you can do a eol upgrade to 12.04 if you like.
[01:11] <Beldar> closed for 10.04
[01:12] <kostkon> !eolupgrades | Birdman3131
[01:13] <neyder_> hi tehre
[01:14] <kostkon> neyder_, hi
[01:14] <Beldar> birdman313131, You can also put grub in the mbr, from the desktop, if you want a grub boot if this is a msdos partition table and install, I'm not sure it is from your description though.
[01:14] <neyder_> ok, i have to go out, have a nice night
[01:16] <Bray90820> Is it possible to run a bash script upon connecting a Bluetooth device
[01:19] <KI7MT> Bray90820: just for info what are you trying to accomplish with the script?
[01:20] <Bray90820> well a while ago i was trying to get a bash script to run on start up for my mouse but i realized that it wasn't working because my mouse wasn't connected
[01:21] <Bray90820> so i want it to wait until i connect my mouse to run
[01:21] <Bray90820> I am just trying to slow down the acceleration of my mouse further then what the system setting have
[01:23] <morten77> ah... I found out what with top that the volume control is called "indicator-sound" lets see if I can make it stop jump now :-)
[01:23] <KI7MT> Bray90820: you could look into using a combination of Bluz and Dbus for detection then run a subprocess .. but would take some indepth knowledge of scripting and protocols for both.
[01:23] <Bray90820> KI7MT: which I don't really have
[01:24] <KI7MT> Bray90820: but the answer to your original question, is yes, it can be done, it's just not a point and click solution.
[01:25] <Bray90820> Now if i could get my bluetooth mouse to be detected on startup then the script should work
[01:25] <Bray90820> i end up needed to click before it is detected

[01:34] <Cooper_>  Would this be the appropriate place to ask help with squid proxy ?
[01:36] <KI7MT> Bray90820: Bray90820 was in another channel, I do very little work with Bluez and BT devices ... maybe others can assist in your setup.
[01:36] <Bray90820> Alright
[01:37] <Bray90820> Anyone else know how to make my bluetooth mouse not need to click when i boot up
[01:37] <Cooper_> Anyone help me with squid ?
[01:38] <glitsj16> Bray90820: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup, the part on 'Connect Devices at Startup' yet? zero experience with bluetooth myself, but it looks relevant if i understand what you're trying to achieve
[01:39] <Cooper_> My Ubuntu has squid3.  The time in Ubunt is correct, but squid3 time is off.  Where in the squid.conf file can I fix time ?  Anyone ?

[01:44] <lauratika> hi every one... is there a way to have a wireless conection only for my home and wont show up for oothers outside my home?
[01:44] <harushimo> when is the ubuntu phone officially coming out
[01:45] <harushimo> can you install android apps on the ubuntu phone?
[01:45] <Cooper_> KI7MT I'll look in the config file again.  I just did not see anywhere in there where to fix the time or time zone.  Thx
[01:45] <Beldar> lauratika, generally a router allows you to turn down the signal, but in or outside is well at best a guess.
[01:45] <banderaz> if i run on live cd "sudo usb_modeswitch -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf" or "sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-huawei-e1552.rules" will it work?
[01:46] <lauratika> what i mean if is possible to create a vpn only for wireless devices connected at home
[01:46] <SonikkuAmerica> !ubuntu-gnome is <reply> Ubuntu GNOME is a supported !flavor of Ubuntu that uses !GNOME as the default desktop environment instead of Unity. For more info or to download, see http://www.ubuntugnome.org/ or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/OneStopPage .
[01:47] <glitsj16> harushimo: you might try #ubuntu-touch for those questions
[01:47] <KI7MT> Cooper_: lookign at the docs, layout is somehting like: acl name time [day-list] [start_hour:minute-end_hour:minute]
[01:47] <harushimo> thank you
[01:50] <SonikkuAmerica> !gnome is <reply> GNOME was the default desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10. To install the GNOME Shell, type [ sudo apt-get install gnome-shell ] in a !terminal. For the GNOME-based !flavor of Ubuntu, see !ubuntu-gnome .

[01:53] <Bray90820> The link you sent me does not work for me
[01:54] <shreezbot_> What command can I use to see disk performance on my Ubuntu machine?
[01:54] <Bray90820> My problem is it sees it and is paired and everything but won't work until i clock the mouse
[01:55] <glitsj16> Bray90820: too bad, let's hope someone knowledgeable on bluetooth chimes in
[01:55] <Bray90820> Yea
[01:56] <Mike9863> I killed pulseaudio but now I'm having trouble getting it to start again. When I run pulseaudio -D it gives me an error saying the Daemon startup failed. Can anyone help me start it again?
[01:57] <_Pete_> Mike9863: did you use sudo to do that?
[01:57] <Mike9863> _Pete_: I don't think so
[01:58] <goaw> hello, I'm actually attempting to update my system & message is suggesting "Waiting for data... (interrupt to abort). Does anybody have any suggestions to fix the problem?
[01:58] <_Pete_> Mike9863: what was the actual command you tried?
[01:58] <Mike9863> _Pete_: I used killall pulseaudio
[01:58] <SonikkuAmerica> It's BLOWNCO
[01:58] <banderaz> if i run on live cd "sudo usb_modeswitch -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf" or "sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-huawei-e1552.rules" will it work?
[01:59] <CptBley> Hi
[01:59]  * BLOWNCO is here
[01:59] <_Pete_> Mike9863: sudo service pulseaudio restart

It now displays 'GNU GRUB version 1.99-21ubuntu3.10' then a new line and 'Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first woed, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions.' Then a new line; ;grub>_
[02:01] <CptBley> What do I do
[02:01] <CptBley> How can I fix this

[02:02] <CptBley> this is driving me insane
[02:03] <Bray90820> Anyone here good with Bluetooth
[02:03] <zykotick9> CptBley: easiest solution, it probably to try reinstalling grub... good luck.

[02:03] <CptBley> Hiw
[02:03] <CptBley> How?
[02:03] <lauratika> i have a router and now i have 3 devices at home will be using wirless internet is there a way to use ubuntu as a access point ONLY for my home devices?
[02:03] <CptBley> how can I reinstall GRUB
[02:04] <zykotick9> CptBley: i'll leave that for someone else to answer...  good luck.
[02:04] <CptBley> I don't have a 'Live CD
[02:04] <Beldar> CptBley, You can chroot from a live cd, or get suprgrub to boot to the desktop and do it from there, or manually boot grub.
[02:04] <zykotick9> !grub | CptBley
[02:05] <Beldar> or maybe bootrepair will fix it from the above bot meaasage
[02:05] <glitsj16> Mike9863: anything more usefull reported in ~/.xsession-errors when you try to restart pulseaudio? and fyi, the per-user session configuration is the default these days
[02:05] <Beldar> message*
[02:05] <banderaz> any other ubuntu channel that can help me
[02:05] <KI7MT> CptBley: ot look into: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[02:06] <zykotick9> KI7MT: thanks, that's the part i'm not familiar with ;)
[02:06] <Mike9863> glitsj16: There don't seem to be any changes made to that file when I run the various startup commands
[02:06] <CptBley> Can I use a DVD RW for a live CD
[02:06] <zykotick9> CptBley: yes

[02:09] <vocx> banderaz, here is the place to ask, but you can also try the ubuntuforums.org, much information there.
[02:09] <Beldar> SonikkuAmerica, Why do you keep kicking the bot?
[02:09] <SonikkuAmerica> Beldar: I was adding factoids. Sorry if it's bothering you.
[02:11] <Beldar> SonikkuAmerica, some read confusing to a new user I think.
[02:14] <KI7MT> SonikkuAmerica: while your adding, add one for BootRepair .. seems to be loads of that needed these days.
[02:14] <SonikkuAmerica> I thought there was one...
[02:14] <KI7MT> Mybe is .. not sure.
[02:15] <KI7MT> There is one for Grub .. but dont know about BootRepair specifically.
[02:15] <SonikkuAmerica> Oh nope, there isn't. You can submit the change yourself, just type !boot-repair is <reply> <text>
[02:16] <SonikkuAmerica> KI7MT: The ops will need to approve of it, however. And they've been known to care lesss
[02:16] <KI7MT> I'll let you all submit them, just think that would be a good one.
[02:19] <Beldar> there is a bootinfo and bootinfoscript I see no bootrepair in it, used to be one.
[02:20] <SonikkuAmerica> KI7MT: Probably the reason we don't have a factoid for Boot-Repair is that it's a PPA.
[02:21] <john_rambo> I have apt-caher-ng  running on the host. I have configured the client (VM) but it is still downloading pacakages from the internet .....is this normal ? Then whats the use of apt-cacher-ng ?
[02:22] <KI7MT> SonikkuAmerica: possibly .. but it's said to be "included soon" whenever that is.
[02:22] <zykotick9> john_rambo: did you update /etc/apt/apt.conf in your VM client?
[02:24] <john_rambo> zykotick9, I searched for /etc/apt/apt.conf
[02:24] <john_rambo> but ther no such file
[02:24] <john_rambo> there
[02:24] <zykotick9> john_rambo: it's not there by default, you need to create it
[02:25] <zykotick9> john_rambo: then add the line = Acquire::http::Proxy "http://IPADDRESS:3142/";
[02:26] <jester> how do you find the ssid of the wireless network you want to connect to?
[02:26] <Bray90820> Is there any way to emulate a mouse click in the terminal
[02:27] <john_rambo> zykotick9, Doing that ......just have alook at this http://askubuntu.com/questions/116575/where-are-apt-get-files-stored  .............I did whats written in the first answer.........should I undo that first ?
[02:29] <zykotick9> john_rambo: 2 ways to skin a cat - i've never used the method suggested there - but i don't think you should use both!  use that method if you're more comfortable with it!
[02:29] <shreezbot_> Is there a faster way than the mv command to move a bunch of data from one disk to another????
[02:29] <john_rambo> zykotick9, That didnt work so I am deleting that file .......
[02:30] <KI7MT> john_rambo: shreezbot_ create a tar.gz or archive and move one file, then extract it.
[02:31] <KI7MT> john_rambo was on previous by mistake, sri.
[02:34] <zykotick9> john_rambo: should have asked you before, are you sure it isn't working?  on the apt-cacher-ng server, where files showing up in /var/cache/apt-cacher-ng/?  the first time things are downloaded, they do need to come to from the internet...  ps. i set my local apt-cacher-ng server to point to the cache as well... they aren't pulled from the ususal /var/cache/apt/archives directory
[02:37] <jester> does any one know how you can find the ssid of the wireless network you want to connect to?
[02:37] <jester> does any one know how you can find the ssid of the wireless network you want to connect to?*
[02:37] <john_rambo> zykotick9, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6626855/  ..........My host is upto date ..
[02:37] <john_rambo> I mean it was upto date before installing apt-cacher-ng
[02:37] <zykotick9> john_rambo: cd into uburep are there files?
[02:38] <john_rambo> zykotick9, dists  pool
[02:38] <zykotick9> john_rambo: i was trying to explain above, just because the server is up-to-date doesn't mean clients will get those files!  the server would need to be using the cache as well!
[02:39] <john_rambo> Okay .... configuring host ...
[02:39] <zykotick9> john_rambo: i'd guess, it WAS working before, and my suggestion/change wasn't necessary
[02:40] <zykotick9> john_rambo: it should work either way though, but your original method - does have an advantage... of not creating apt.conf
[02:42] <zykotick9> john_rambo: it is possible to import your current /var/cache/apt/archive files - but i've never tried...
[02:43] <glitsj16> !info linssid | jester
[02:44] <jester> the bot is not making sense...
[02:44] <jester> is ssid just the name of the connection?
[02:45] <jester> the human readable name or something else?
[02:45] <john_rambo> zykotick9, So just to be sure .........Its not necessary for the host to use apt-cacher-ng ? I am just confused with just this one atm
[02:45] <glitsj16> jester: there's a package called linssid that shows what you want, i thought (mistakenly) that it was in the regular repos
[02:46] <zykotick9> john_rambo: it's not necessary, but that means stuff it download WON'T be available to clients
[02:46] <john_rambo> Thanks a lot
[02:46] <glitsj16> jester: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:47] <zykotick9> john_rambo: if host (server) uses it as well, then things will only have to be downloaded once, no matter by which host/client
[02:48] <glitsj16> jester: yes it's the human readable name
[02:50] <Pwnna> yeah. X ram usage is definitely creeping upwards at a rate about 150MB per day
[02:50] <Pwnna> not sure why.
[02:50] <Pwnna> wast at about 150MB yesterday. Now iit is at ~300

[03:04] <Beldar> ikeboy, I was wrong I actually see it in the repos my bad.
[03:06] <ParkerR> Is the original Nexus 7 Ubuntu image available anywhere? I am wanting to try out the image that was pretty much just normal Ubuntu (looked like full desktop) but had touch input and touch friendly software keyboard. It was available here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-preinstalled/current/ (From this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation )
[03:06] <ParkerR> I'm not wanting the new Ubuntu Touch based images
[03:06] <Beldar> ParkerR, #ubuntu-touch
[03:06] <somsip> ParkerR: go to the touch homepage and its linked from there
[03:08] <Beldar> ParkerR, None run all that well on a nexus 7 though, long battery time however.
[03:09] <ParkerR> I undertsnd it isnt that great performance wise. I just remembered trying the initial image that was available but am failing to find it now
[03:12] <aaas> any idea what would cause a mount point where 'mount' reads 'rw' to change to 'ro' as soon as I try and delete something in that mount point?
[03:12] <somsip> aaas: what is being mounted?
[03:14] <aaas> somsip in this particular case it's a 'mx linux' install on a linux mini pc  ...im mounting the /root directory (/dev/data)
[03:15] <ztane> aaas: bc it is mounted with errors=remount-ro

[03:43] <CptBley> Hi I have here a USB boot disk made by unetbootin. I start my computer, an HP DX7200 Slim tower and use F9 (Boot Menu). I am then faced with a menu consisting of four things; CD-ROM, USB, Hard Drive, And some other mumbo jumbo thing. I then select USB and hit enter. A few seconds pass and it comes up with windows boot information (Start windows normally etc) What am I doing wrong, the disc is bootable
[03:43] <Beldar> CptBley, THis a uefi computer?
[03:44] <CptBley> A what?
[03:44] <CptBley> Windows wiped out GRUB
[03:44] <CptBley> Bootloader
[03:44] <Beldar> CptBley, What is the windows release?
[03:44] <CptBley> XP Proffesional
[03:44] <Beldar> CptBley, Your install?
[03:45] <CptBley> uuuuuuh
[03:45] <CptBley> What
[03:45] <Beldar> CptBley, Pretty simple questions
[03:45] <CptBley> My install of what
[03:45] <Beldar> think before just going what
[03:45] <Beldar> what were we talking about last
[03:45] <CptBley> WIndows
[03:45] <CptBley> uhm
[03:46] <Beldar> very good it the XP, your install
[03:46] <Beldar> is*
[03:46] <CptBley> where do I get that?
[03:46] <Beldar> CptBley, Did you install XP in that computer yourself?
[03:46] <CptBley> No
[03:47] <CptBley> I bought it off someone
[03:47] <rrawze> This has happened to me many tmes trying to boot a USB stick. Sometimes you have to create a USB boot stick via program called 'Unetbootin', and even then, sometimes it is flaky. I have seen where I have to create the USB atick 3 or 4 times to get it to work.
[03:47] <Beldar> CptBley, I would check the sum of the iso if needed, and maybe try another usb loader, as far as I can tell it should boot to the live desktop.
[03:48] <CptBley> Sum? Live Desktop?
[03:48] <Beldar> !md5sum | CptBley
[03:49] <Beldar> CptBley, Is the ubuntu a live cd/usb ISO download?
[03:49] <CptBley> Yeah I downloaded the ISO today and used unetbootin to put it on a USB
[03:50] <Beldar> CptBley, check the sum, and maybe try another usb loader. If you used unetbootin to download the iso that not always works is all.
[03:50] <CptBley> !Hi |CptBley
[03:50] <CptBley> !Help
[03:51] <CptBley> I didn't use unetbootin to download it
[03:51] <Beldar> CptBley, cool check the sum to verify a good download using the link.
[03:52] <CptBley> Im on a mac
[03:52] <Beldar> CptBley, Cool beyond me to help you, good luck.
[03:53] <prsteele> Does anyone know when ~/.Xkbmap should be loaded in, or otherwise know when calls to setxkbmap should be made?
[03:55] <ItsMeLenny> how do i install different versions of the same program from a ppa?
[03:56] <Beldar> ItsMeLenny, check that the versions are not release related.
[03:57] <KI7MT> /load/window new split
[03:57] <Beldar> ItsMeLenny, Are you familiar with ppa-purge?
[03:57] <cfhowlett> !mac|CptBley,
[03:58] <salmandjuli> Indonesian
[03:59] <ItsMeLenny> Beldar, i want to keep the other versions
[03:59] <ItsMeLenny> such as wine, i want to install 1.6 and 1.4
[03:59] <saiarcot895> ItsMeLenny: if it's the same package name, you can't. If they have different package name, you might be able to
[04:00] <Beldar> ItsMeLenny, I think you may getting in over your head, just a guess, and making sure you understand ppa-purge
[04:00] <saiarcot895> ItsMeLenny: for that, PlayOnLinux might help. I think it allows you to have different wine versions installed
[04:00] <zykotick9> ItsMeLenny: check out playonlinux, it allows that.  normally you can't have multiple versions of the same program installed.
[04:01] <ItsMeLenny> playonlinux didnt help
[04:01] <ItsMeLenny> not in over my head
[04:02] <Beldar> hehe of course not, the questions alone surely don't indicate this
[04:02] <saiarcot895> ItsMeLenny: The "Manage Wine Versions" command didn't install the versions you want.
[04:02] <ItsMeLenny> how do a set up a 2nd environment
[04:02] <saiarcot895> ItsMeLenny: ? at the end
[04:07] <rrawze> ItsMeLenny, just some thought on running stuff under wine. I have set my wine environment to server2003 instead of xp. It just runs better for some reason. I used to jump wine versions by re-installing it to get some programs to work, but setting the environment to server2003 stopped me from having to do this. All my programs i use for wine are now happy.
[04:08] <ItsMeLenny> rrawze, i'll try
[04:09] <ItsMeLenny> rrawze, didnt work
[04:09] <ItsMeLenny> something so bizarre is going on
[04:12] <alex_fun> hey folks is 13.10 good?
[04:12] <alex_fun> or 13.04 is better?
[04:13] <SchrodingersScat> alex_fun: I don't think support for 13.04 is much longer for this world
[04:13] <Beldar> alex_fun, Better is a subjective per person opinion
[04:13] <alex_fun> so 13.10 is more supported?
[04:13] <Beldar> equal support for all releases here still supported
[04:13] <alex_fun> cool
[04:14] <rrawze> alex_fun, I had much trouble with 13.1 vs 13.04 using the LXDE desktop environment, but I found out it was the login manager messing up things. I switched to LXDM and all is fantastic in 13.1 for me

[04:15] <shreezbot_> Ok, so I have a TON of memory on my homeserver because I started out running Windows 2012, which happily ate all 24GB that I gave it.  Now that I've seen the light and switched to Ubuntu (never looking back), what in the hell am I supposed to do with all of this memory?
[04:15] <shreezbot_> I can't get this thing to use more than 2GB and I'm doing EVERYTHING on it!
[04:15] <SchrodingersScat> shreezbot_: tmpfs?
[04:15] <SchrodingersScat> shreezbot_: many a virtual machine?
[04:16] <shreezbot_> SchrodingersScat, I thought of tmpfs, but my main OS drive is an SSD, so I don't really know if that's nessesary...
[04:17] <shreezbot_> Oh, that's another thing...  256GB SSD and I'm using 5GB of it...  #firstworldproblems indeed...
[04:18] <rrawze> SchrodingersScat, I have a PE2900 here with 32gb ram. Whenever it would sit for yo=hours, the memory/cahce manager would slowly eat the ram up with HDD cache, then whenever you would try to start a program, ity would make the computer seem crawling slow because it was trying to dump the ram back all the time. I eventually had to rewrite the cache manager to stop it.
[04:19] <SchrodingersScat> shreezbot_: ^ there you go, rewrite your cache manager.
[04:20] <shreezbot_> SchrodingersScat, lol, I'm not that smart yet...  I'm a Linux baby...  :)
[04:21] <SchrodingersScat> shreezbot_: minecraft eats ram, right?
[04:22] <shreezbot_> SchrodingersScat, I've heard that it does
[04:23] <rrawze> it will eat whatever amount of ram you allow for in the JVM environment. my minecraft server is currently using 2GB ram
[04:24] <rrawze> it takes about 300k blocks of tnt going off at once to bog it down to any significant degree'
[04:43] <sdouble_> any ideas why I can't hear any sound unless I'm using root/sudo?  user groups: adm cdrom sudo audio dip plugdev fuse lpadmin sambashare pulse-access
[04:44] <siberiannerd> is bumblebee ppa broken for 13.04?
[04:44] <sf_> oi
[04:45] <vocx> !sound
[04:45] <sf_> s
[04:45] <sf_> s
[04:45] <sf_> ss
[04:45] <sf_> sss
[04:45] <vocx> sdouble_, In the helps there it says that some wrong permissions would cause this.
[04:45] <FloodBot1> sf_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:45] <xangua> siberiannerd: if you mean no packages or broken pakages, you can check the ppa yourself
[04:46] <sdouble_> forgot to mention, I'm running minimal ubuntu with i3, so I don't have all of unity's applets
[04:46] <siberiannerd> xangua, i'm checking it myself and when adding it i face dependency problem
[04:46] <vocx> sdouble_, I didn't find that problem, but I read it there.
[04:46] <xangua> siberiannerd: then you should probably contact the PPA maintainer
[04:47] <sf_> how to create reader for android ?
[04:47] <xangua> file a bug, etc.
[04:47] <siberiannerd> xangua, before doing so i would like to double-check myself asking if someone can see the same

[05:03] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[05:03] <SchrodingersScat> good evening
[05:04] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, greetings
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: hello mate :p
[05:06] <dharani1> hi
[05:06] <siberiannerd> i experience dependency problem adding bumblebee ppa on 13.04, am i the only one?
[05:07] <lotuspsychje> is it true one can execute sudo commands without the root password on ubuntu?
[05:07] <Beldar> lotuspsychje, There is no root password, you know that.
[05:08] <cfhowlett> !root
[05:08] <Beldar> admin user passwords are what you have
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> Beldar: yes but i mean, is it possible to run sudo commands, even not having admin pass
[05:09] <Beldar> I believe so not sure how though
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> that does sound scary no?
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> where does that leave ubuntu's security?
[05:09] <Beldar> behind the password if it is so like always
[05:10] <Beldar> I think you can acces the admin from a regular account with the admin password, not sure though.
[05:11] <lotuspsychje> ive been told any users can execute sudo commands without admin pass too
[05:11] <Beldar> been told, hmmmm
[05:11] <Beldar> by whom and did they show how.
[05:11] <lotuspsychje> by someone that helps alot here
[05:12] <Jordan_U> lotuspsychje: You can't use sudo unless your user is a member of the "sudo" or "admin" group by default.
[05:12] <Beldar> any OS can be cracked it sounds like more along those lines to be honest, I want proof.
[05:12] <cfhowlett> I use su adminaccount from my daily account all the time rather than actually login to admin
[05:12] <dharani_sahu> @lotuspsychje you should know either ROOT password or ADMIN password to execute commands
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> dharani_sahu: thats just my point, this guy said its not nescesary to know admin pass
[05:13] <Beldar> cfhowlett, I figured it was a su
[05:13] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, pics or it didn't happen ...
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> just automated sudo scripts would be enough?
[05:14] <Jordan_U> lotuspsychje: That person was wrongwrong.
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> Jordan_U: holdon lemme find my logs
[05:15] <duoi> hi all. how do i find out my GPU firmware version?
[05:15] <Jordan_U> duoi: What is your end goal?
[05:16] <duoi> Jordan_U, finding out firmware version
[05:17] <Jordan_U> duoi: That's not an end goal. Why do you want to know the firmware version?
[05:18] <duoi> Jordan_U, for my own personal satisfcation
[05:18] <lotuspsychje> seems like my scrollback doesnt go that far
[05:20] <Jordan_U> duoi: Ok. Firmware is generally loaded by the driver when the hardware is initialized, so that would probably be the place to start looking.
[05:21] <dharani_sahu> @lotuspsychje as Jordan_U said may be you need to be a user of Admin Group
[05:21] <Jordan_U> !logs | lotuspsychje
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> dharani_sahu: so another users cant do nothing, without being member of that admin group?
[05:22] <dharani_sahu> lotuspsyychje: yes
[05:22] <Jordan_U> lotuspsychje: They can't run processes as root.
[05:22] <zykotick9> lotuspsychje: fyi, to use the sudo command you need to be in the sudo group (historically, it was admin)
[05:23] <scarrs> hello all... I have a friend that is wanting to install ubuntu. he has booted to the live cd however clicking the install icon does not work. I am an expereinced ubuntu user to help him but I forget this: what is the terminlal command to install ubuntu?
[05:23] <dharani_sahu> @lotuspsychje:but if the admin grants the permission to execute commands which needs to be then its possible
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> ok tnx guys
[05:25] <Jordan_U> scarrs: There is no single command that installs Ubuntu. What happens when they try to press the install button?
[05:26] <duoi> Jordan_U, or at least find out the BIOS version of the GPU?
[05:28] <scarrs> Jordan_U, absolutey nothing
[05:28] <banderaz> will Huawei E1552 usb modem work with Ubuntu 13.10 or Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? anybody
[05:29] <Toyraztory> Hello
[05:29] <cfhowlett> Toyraztory, greetings
[05:29] <lotuspsychje> Jordan_U: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2013/12/22/%23ubuntu.txt 11H51
[05:30] <Toyraztory> hi howlett
[05:30] <zykotick9> scarrs: does "try ubuntu" do anything?  if so, once booted into live environment, try the install icon there.
[05:30] <Jordan_U> duoi: GPU's don't have a BIOS.
[05:30] <Toyraztory> I cant seem to download non linux steam games
[05:30] <duoi> Jordan_U, what does GPU-Z report on Windows then? http://www.thebuzzmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/gpu-z-save-bios.png
[05:31] <Jordan_U> duoi: They have option ROMs that run in the BIOS.
[05:31] <cfhowlett> Toyraztory, makes sense.  why would steam load osx/windows games on your linux box?
[05:31] <duoi> Jordan_U, how can I get those details on Linux?
[05:31] <scarrs> zykotick9, tyvm, however my bro seems to have navigated the cdrom boot menu and is installing NOW (woot)
[05:32] <Jordan_U> duoi: I'm not familiar with that tool.
[05:32] <Toyraztory> i have playonlinux
[05:32] <Toyraztory> but i cant get it to download thru steam
[05:32] <varun> how can i access ubuntu firewall
[05:32] <scarrs> thanks for your help guys
[05:32] <cfhowlett> Toyraztory, pretty sure playonlinux and steam aren't built to cooperate
[05:32] <cfhowlett> !firewall|varun,
[05:33] <Toyraztory> ok ok
[05:33] <varun> but it is all command line based
[05:33] <varun> is there any gui based

[05:38] <zykotick9> lotuspsychje: are you running saucy?  or did you add a ppa?  "apt-cache policy firestarter" perhaps show you?

[05:41] <zykotick9> lotuspsychje: dunno...
[05:41] <dk0r> Does anyone have the intel 7260 wireless nic working on 5 GHz?
[05:41] <lotuspsychje> zykotick9: ok shows on raring info

[05:47] <Gnea> roots9: what laptop do you have? which make & model?
[05:47] <Gnea> roots9: also, why do you need access to lost+found?
[05:50] <roots9> Gnea 1. i made my laptop out of pieces 2. that requires root info access and you are not root :)
[05:52] <Gnea> roots9: Okay, well without knowing what sort of hardware you've got, there really isn't anything I can help you with directly regarding the gestures.  And yes, I know that I am not root.  I am Gnea. ;-)

[06:03] <bazhang> !appdb | bee
[06:04] <cfhowlett> bee, maybe in wine but certainly with less than perfect results.  consider using libreoffice or openoffice

[06:08] <roots9> I have to write code for gestures?
[06:09] <Bray90820> Every time i stat ubuntu I need to click my bluetooth mouse to get it to activate and because of that my acceleration script doesn't activate  correctly
[06:10] <KI7MT> clear
[06:11] <roots9> why would you get a bluetooth mouse in the 1-st place if you want an acceleration script?
[06:11] <Gnea> roots9: you have to use a special utility to figure out which gestures your device supports and then you'll need to write it into a config file for Xorg to use
[06:12] <Bray90820> roots9: the script i am using slows it down beyond what the system settings have
[06:13] <sdfsfs> I just burn a copy of ubuntu into my USB , after the install ubuntu screen, it went black with a white _ blinking, any ideas?

[06:17] <KI7MT> Bray90820: I would thing the later is the best of the two, not having to run a script.
[06:17] <FloodBot1> muchdoge: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:18] <Bray90820> KI7MT: i think you misunderstood me i ment that have it automatically run after i click
[06:19] <roots9> is touchegg working on ubu 13.10?
[06:21] <vocx> muchdoge, I only have libcurl4, is your libcurl14 a typo?

[06:22] <cfhowlett> mnsekh, for debian building see #debian
[06:23] <KI7MT> I dont see a libcurl4 package, only the dev package libcurl5-gnutls-dev
[06:23] <mnsekh> thanks for the resources ubottu , cfhowlett
[06:23] <KI7MT> whoops libcurl4-gnutls-dev .. not 5
[06:24] <muchdoge> KI7MT: so what do you think?
[06:25] <KI7MT> muchdoge: I would install libcurl4-gnutlss-dev .. it required 3, but also provided libcurl4-dev
[06:26] <KI7MT> muchdoge: Have a lok at: apt-cache show libcurl4-gnutls-dev  ..
[06:27] <muchdoge> KI7MT, I typed that into my console, and it went insane.
[06:27] <muchdoge> sorryI guess I should say im a complete lynux noob
[06:28] <KI7MT> muchdoge: lol .. Well according to the package, it provided libcurl4-dev, and that looks to be the only way your going to get libcurl4 ..
[06:29] <muchdoge> oh, should I have let that run?
[06:29] <KI7MT> muchdoge: yes, in terminal type: apt-cache show libcurl4-gnutls-dev
[06:30] <KI7MT> That will list the package details .. it won't install it though.
[06:30] <muchdoge> KI7MT, How do I install it?
[06:31] <KI7MT> muchdoge: sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
[06:32] <muchdoge> KI7MT. Same error. Should I copy and paste it somewhere so you can see?
[06:32] <KI7MT> muchdoge: just curous, what program / application is requiring libcurl4 ?

[06:48] <KI7MT> Hello
[06:48] <MarkDavies> How can I start vi (not vim) in Ubuntu?
[06:49] <Bray90820> KI7MT: maybe i could just change the default value of the mouse
[06:49] <Bray90820> KI7MT: xinput
[06:50] <boobs_> whois Hexeon
[06:52] <KI7MT> MarkDavies: this may be what your needding: http://askubuntu.com/questions/111019/how-to-make-vi-default
[06:53] <MarkDavies> thank you, KI7MT
[06:53] <KI7MT> Bray90820: Im really not sure what you need to do .. I've not used a BT mouse before.
[06:54] <Bray90820> Well maybe someone else can chime in then
[06:55] <Bray90820> What i want to do it make this my default
[06:55] <Bray90820> xinput --set-prop "Aaron’s mouse" "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" 3.5
[06:55] <muchdoge> KI7MT: OK, Im not sure what to do now. Someone told me to install it from repositories, but from what I can tell, that would be an install CD. I dont have one, I installed via a USB.
[06:55] <MarkDavies> Ok, let's assume that I've just started vim. How can I go to the insert mode nicely?
[06:56] <KI7MT> muchdoge: If  your really new to Ubuntu and the Terminal itself, may be worth reading the relavent portions of the ubuntu-manaul, just for background so your not lots on all the instructions.
[06:56] <lijing_nick> This is from lijing.

[06:57] <cem_> is there n e systray options on gnome ubuntu 13.10?
[06:58] <KI7MT> MarkDavies: Thought that would give you a doc reference .. I'll got find one for ya, VIM wise.
[06:58] <MarkDavies> KI7MT: I have the general knowledge of vim. But I can't find how to go to the insert mode. I tried to do it with ESC :i after starting vi, but it doesn't work.
[06:59] <KI7MT> MarkDavies: Quick Ref Guide: http://tnerual.eriogerg.free.fr/vimqrc.html
[06:59] <cem_> i wanna add skype and evolution to system tray, i googled but every examples were for oldest ubuntu versions
[07:00] <KI7MT> muchdoge: There's a section on APT and The Terminal (xterm), would probably be good to read through those.
[07:00] <quizme> hi, i installed postfix, but when i tried to run it, I got the message that port 25 is already in use, but i don't have anything running on port 25 as far as i know.

[07:02] <KI7MT> MarkDavies: No.
[07:02] <KI7MT> quizme: Did you elect to configure later, or do the config at install ?
[07:03] <quizme> K17MT I configured it as an internet server

[07:04] <KI7MT> quizme: have a look at: ... nmap localhost  ... and see what that tells you

[07:12] <quizme> K17MT http://pastebin.com/nwyEf5bv
[07:12] <Bray90820> prob not right?
[07:13] <muchdoge> KI7MT. I read that. Im still having the same problem If I try to install it from the app center, it tells me to check my internet connection. If i install it from console, I get a 404 error. Im fully connected, as you can see, so what is the problem?
[07:14] <imghost> Bray90820, inbuilt, usb or wireless mouse?
[07:14] <KI7MT> quizme: that looks a bit odd, sendmail has p25, I belive, that should be postfix, have you tried restarting PF after install ?
[07:14] <Bray90820> imghost: bluetooth mouse
[07:14] <Bray90820> apple magic mouse
[07:15] <quizme> k17MT postfix is not running due to the port conflict.
[07:15] <KI7MT> muchdoge: have you done an update / upgrqade since you installed Ubuntu ?
[07:15] <quizme> k17mt I guess i have to kill sendmail
[07:16] <imghost> Bray90820, oh ok i do not have much knowledge of bluetooth mouse but try to install sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics , i think it will solve your problem
[07:16] <muchdoge> It did one today when I logged on....Ill do it again boss....sorry, I know everyone is asking you everything. I really appreciate the help KI7MT
[07:16] <KI7MT> quizme: sudo apt-get purge sendmail
[07:16] <KI7MT> sudo apt-get install --reinstall postfix
[07:16] <KI7MT> sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart
[07:17] <quizme> K17MT: Package 'sendmail' is not installed, so not removed
[07:17] <KI7MT> muchdoge: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:17] <Bray90820> imghost:from there could i add "--set-prop "Aaron’s mouse" "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" 3.5" and it would work?
[07:17] <imghost> Bray90820,  i think yes
[07:17] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: another one here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/285970/mouse-acceleration-13-04
[07:17] <Bray90820> Thanks
[07:18] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: maybe you can edit settings from dconf-editor aswell?
[07:18] <KI7MT> quizme: then either restart or dpkg-reconfigure postfix and restart it.
[07:18] <muchdoge> KI7MT: How often does one need to run an update like this?
[07:18] <Bray90820> Thanks
[07:18] <quizme> K17MT how is it that Sendmail was running but never installed ?
[07:19] <KI7MT> muchdoge: depends .. I do it before installing any SW
[07:19] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: or maybe unity-tweak-tool
[07:19] <KI7MT> quizme: I dont know, that's odd as well.
[07:19] <quizme> K17MT could i be hacked ?
[07:20] <KI7MT> quizme: anythign is possible, but I highly doubt it. Is this a local machine ot a remote server?
[07:20] <quizme> K17MT remote
[07:20] <KI7MT> quizme: and this is a ubuntu server yes?
[07:20] <quizme> yes
[07:21] <quizme> K17MT yes
[07:22] <KI7MT> quizme: lets find out if this is postfix sendmail: dpkg -S `which sendmail`
[07:22] <quizme> K17MT postfix: /usr/sbin/sendmail
[07:23] <KI7MT> quizme: As Postfix is actually a drop in replacement for sendmail that has it's own sendmail binary.
[07:24] <KI7MT> quizme: That's what you shoudl ahve, that's proof that Postfix is using it's sendmail and it locked onto p25.
[07:24] <quizme> K17MT okay...
[07:25] <KI7MT> quizme: so you could do a quick dpkg-reconfigure, then restart, and test from there., as you know Postfix has P25.
[07:25] <quizme> K17MT which options should i choose ?
[07:26] <KI7MT> quizme: jsut fyi, my nock is K i cap I not 1 :-)
[07:26] <KI7MT> my nick ..
[07:26] <quizme> oh
[07:27] <quizme> KI7MT which option should i choose?  (No config, Internet site, Internet site with smarthost, satellite, local)
[07:27] <quizme> i chose internet site last time
[07:27] <Bray90820> I think i might just need to give up on the magic mouse if i want to use ubuntu
[07:28] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: you sure your bluetooth driver is installed correctly?
[07:28] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: here's an url on it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppleMagicMouse
[07:29] <KI7MT> quizme: I would have a read of the install docs for that answer, as the configs would be different for each, I belive the standard is Internet Site, but you'll need all the host name and routing info at that point.
[07:31] <Bray90820> lotuspsychje: the problem isn't with the mouse itself it's with ubuntu
[07:32] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: what ubuntu version are you on mate?
[07:32] <Bray90820> I am on 13.10
[07:32] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: did you try blueman?
[07:33] <lotuspsychje> !info blueman | Bray90820
[07:34] <Bray90820> lotuspsychje: the mouse connects fine i just can't set the acceleration of it
[07:35] <KI7MT> quizme: are you using a how-too for this or just starting on it? There's several good Devcot + Postfix install how too's I can dig you one up if need be.
[07:35] <xmetal> hmm has anyone ever had the issue of "unity displaying fine" but having no programs or anything IN THE unity menus? (if so, you know what would cause this?)
[07:37] <KI7MT> quizme: this one includes a MySQL back end, but also has good over view images for background info: https://library.linode.com/email/postfix/postfix2.9.6-dovecot2.0.19-mysql
[07:38] <quizme> KI7MT thanks i'll try it out
[07:38] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: here's a thread about tweaking stuff: http://www.xenabeast.com/solution-install-ubuntu-13-10-macbook-pro-2/
[07:38] <KI7MT> quizme: There's allot there, I'd have a full read through it first, then, go back to the beginning.
[07:39] <zeqe> öpä
[07:39] <lotuspsychje> !fi | zeqe
[07:41] <KI7MT> xmetal: when you say no progress in the menus, are you talking about the install menus's  ?
[07:43] <xmetal> unity display as if nothing is wrong but when i go to the (forgot the term) the first box on the top left, where you would say start typing a program name in...its always blank (doesn't list any programs) ... switch DE's and its fine (the programs ARE installed .. just no "unity menu items for them")
[07:43] <xmetal> i dont use unity all the time, though i do want to figure out what may be causing this
[07:44] <xmetal> (like in windows ... all programs are where you left them but the "Start menu~~>programs~~>" is blank)
[07:44] <xmetal> just as a comparison
[07:45] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: old graphics card?
[07:45] <KI7MT> xmetal: what version of ubuntu ?  Start --> Menu .. .. . In Gnome-Classic ?
[07:47] <xmetal> pc is from 2009 .. .not the newest but not old
[07:47] <xmetal> the start menus (from windows) was just a metaphor i was using
[07:47] <xmetal> (bad thing to do in a linux room :P )
[07:47] <cfhowlett> xmetal, lubuntu is optimized for devices like yours
[07:47] <cfhowlett> !lubuntu
[07:48] <kkkkk> HI , i want to purchase a new  3gmodem, because today my modem got dead, i have shortlisted huawei e303c or e303u, both have same features but 303u is newer model. Both have call support from PC, but i want to know whether call support will work in ubuntu also, on  huawei website it is written it supports linux, i am confirming the same http://www.huaweidevice.co.in/Products/MobileBroadband/compare-data-cards.php
[07:48] <xmetal> I have tried (just because i like them) other DE's and Unity is the only one with this issue ... KDE, LXDE, XFCE, all have "normal" menus
[07:49] <xmetal> no big deal but i would like to see if i can figure out whats wrong here
[07:49] <xmetal> i am happy with other DE's too
[07:49] <xmetal> -too *
[07:49] <kkkkk> guys and gals please guide,
[07:50] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: maybe try e3 or blackbox on it? just to see improvement
[07:50] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: or install lubuntu-desktop on it like cfhowlett suggests
[07:50] <KI7MT> xmetal: I'd agree with cfhowlett .. the gfx requirments of Unity os a fare bit higher than, LXDE (Lubuntu) or XFCE (Xubuntu) may be the best option for you with older hardware.
[07:51] <lotuspsychje> i had an old acer once, even didnt like lubuntu either
[07:51] <xmetal> issue is i have used ubuntu and other distros (you cna guess which one) + unity before and it was a-ok
[07:52] <xmetal> maybe there is something with the new version that doesn't "like" my computer's graphics card
[07:52] <lotuspsychje> xmetal: wich version are you trying?
[07:53] <lotuspsychje> kkkkk: huawei installed by default for me on 13.04..not sure bout other versions
[07:55] <KI7MT> xmetal: I'd first try with 12.04 LTS .. then, if you really need the later 13.xx versoin, give them a shot, or wait until 14.04 to LTS to LTS upgrade.
[07:55] <lotuspsychje> KI7MT: good idea!
[07:56] <KI7MT> Or do a fresh 14.04 Install.
[07:57] <moi> hi
[07:57] <cfhowlett> moi, greetings
[08:00] <athene_noctua> Hi, I am running 12.04 and recently turned off automounting via dconf-editor (for both cinnamon and gnome, if that matters). How do I see a CD-ROM after I insert it?
[08:00] <athene_noctua> Is it in /dev somewhere?
[08:01] <lotuspsychje> athene_noctua: show volumes visible desktop or something
[08:02] <atmosx> hello, can I somehow tell ufw not to use dmesg to dump logs but to use a specific file?
[08:04] <KI7MT> athene_noctua: ls /dev/cd*   .. not sure why you'd want automount off, but all esle fails, re-enable it in dconf-editor
[08:05] <athene_noctua> KI7MT: Ah, I think I see it. I should just be able to manually mount it to /media or /whateverelse then . . .
[08:07] <athene_noctua> KI7MT: I never thought to use a wildcard with ls like that, smart thinking.
[08:07] <KI7MT> atmosx: I dont think so, /etc/rsyslog.d/20-ufw.conf tells rsyslog which kernel ring entries get bufferd to ufw logs, but there may be a redirect hack somewhere.
[08:09] <athene_noctua> Well, thanks. I got it figured right nicely now. /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrw are sym links to their respective block devices, also in /dev.
[08:10] <KI7MT> atmosx: you could have a look at: ufw off .. man ufw has more options.
[08:11] <atmosx> KI7MT: interesting, I'll take a look to /etc/rsyslog.  What is the command to install a .run program I have installed? I tried just clicking on it, but it says I must run it as a super user.
[08:31] <muchdoge> sorry, I mean what is the command line to install a .run program I have DOWNLOADED.
[08:31] <BlackDex> just execute it via a terminal
[08:32] <KI7MT> BlackDex: not an expert on this, but may want to have a read through this one if you've not done so already: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2073948
[08:32] <kkkkk1> hi, all,  how to do calling from modem in ubuntu
[08:32] <kkkkk1> i have huawei e303u
[08:32] <BlackDex> KI7MT: Thx.. i will check it :)
[08:33] <kkkkk1> i have ubuntu 12.04
[08:33] <kkkkk1> LTS
[08:33] <muchdoge> BlackDex: same error, must run as super user.
[08:33] <kkkkk1> is there any gui to do mobile calling from ubuntu
[08:33] <KI7MT> muchdoge: chmod +x <file-name>.run .. then ./file-name.run
[08:33] <BlackDex> muchdoge: add gksu or sudo infront of it :)
[08:33] <muchdoge> Thanks!
[08:35] <KI7MT> hmmm fergot about sudo on that one, whoops :-)
[08:38] <muchdoge> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6627996/
[08:38] <KI7MT> kkkkk1: See Info: http://askubuntu.com/questions/179324/huawei-e173-on-ubuntu-12-04
[08:38] <kkkkk1> let me see, KI7MT
[08:40] <KI7MT> muchdoge: try one at a time: sudo apt-get install ./amd-catalyst-13.11-beta  then sudo apt-get install ./v9.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run
[08:40] <muchdoge> KI7MT and BlackDex: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6627996/ this is what I get for all of the above.
[08:40] <muchdoge> Rgr
[08:41] <kkkkk1> KI7MT: this is only for internet, i want to use call facility of the modem, it is capable of doing voice calls from PC
[08:41] <muchdoge> KI7MT. I figured out the whole problem I was typing out the full file name. .run and all.
[08:42] <KI7MT> muchdoge: Oh man my bad, those are not apt packages .. at least the .run is not
[08:42] <kkkkk1> KI7MT: on windows i do it regularly, and this should be the case with ubuntu also
[08:42] <KI7MT> muchdoge: just to sudo ./<file-name>.run
[08:43] <KI7MT> muchdoge: correct instructions: sudo ./amd-catalyst-13.11-beta  then  sudo install./v9.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run
[08:44] <KI7MT> muchdoge: sudo ./amd-catalyst-13.11-beta
[08:44] <kkkkk1> KI7MT: i want to do voice calls from Laptop, USSD & SMS, since it is capable of doing all these things, then why not in linux also, further, Huawei is world's largest telecom solutions provider,  so there should be native support for such devices
[08:44] <KI7MT> muchdoge: sudo ./v9.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run
[08:44] <KI7MT> Sorry, copy and paste kicking me in the back side...
[08:45] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, there will support only if the OEM (huawei) decides to offer such.  otherwise you must wait patiently until the linux community decides that figuring out a way is a worthy project.
[08:45] <muchdoge> KI7MT: Command not found. But the file is right there.
[08:45] <KI7MT> kkkkk1: I dont make the call what is or is not supported in the kernel .. need to take that up with Linus Torvalds Mr. Linux Kernel :-)
[08:46] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, here's a hint: does Huawei suggest that they offer linux support ?
[08:46] <kkkkk1> cfhowlett: it is a worthy project, most of people in INdia now a days, use 3g modems, not wired broadband
[08:46] <kkkkk1> cfhowlett: yes they offer linux support
[08:46] <KI7MT> muchdoge: all you need is sudo ./file-name .. and if you you alreadh chmod + x the file should run, sorry for the confusion.
[08:46] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, again; Mr. Linus Torvalds   but if they offer linux support shouldn't you be on their site to get the official instructions?
[08:47] <KI7MT> Other way to di it, ndiswrapper and chmod the win-driver, but Im not going there on this one.
[08:47] <KI7MT> modprobe the win-driver
[08:48] <BlackDex> ah.. i have found the problem... it is amixer which is broken
[08:48] <BlackDex> it mutes everything for some reason
[08:49] <kkkkk1> cfhowlett: i am not lINUs TORVALDS, but why people will choose linux, when there are so many restrictions on user, apart from simplicity, like wifi either slow or not working, first time user don't know how to blacklist n all, no support for windows programs, except virtualbox, no highlighting in PDF's and many other issues
[08:49] <kkkkk1> mobile broadband not working, bluetooth broken
[08:50] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, you really asking the wrong person.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Torvalds
[08:50] <kkkkk1> if by some gud luck, mobile broadband worked , then USSD not working, SMS not working
[08:50] <kkkkk1> cfhowlett: thanks
[08:51] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, and on a side note; "no support for windows programs ..."  OF COURSE NOT!  linux ain't windows!
[08:51] <kkkkk1> but there should be some programs that can do somebody's tasks
[08:52] <xangua> no support for specific mac programs either ;)
[08:52] <kkkkk1> VLC, chrome, are some good programs, but they exist on windows too
[08:52] <llutz> kkkkk1: if someone told you, linux is a perfect OS for everyone/every task, he lied. now please take your rants to another channel, this is the ubuntu-support channel only
[08:52] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, "should be"  ... I "should be" a millionaire and married to a playboy centerfold but ... I aint'
[08:52] <cfhowlett> !osalt
[08:53] <KI7MT> kkkkk1: also, when buying harware, it would be wise to check the supported hardware for the distrobution inf queston: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/amd64/hardware-supported.html
[08:53] <cfhowlett> www.osalt.org will give you a list of good opensource alternatives to windows.
[08:53] <kkkkk1> cfhowlett: laptop hardware is working but what about wireless devices, bluetooth etc
[08:53] <kkkkk1> they work on some standards, like 8.0. something
[08:54] <cfhowlett> kkkkk1, we are done.  take this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[08:54] <KI7MT> kkkkk1: additional resources: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO/

[08:54] <kkkkk1> thanks, cfhowlett
[08:54] <somsip> cfhowlett: you need to review osalt.org...
[08:55] <cfhowlett> somsip, ?  eh?
[08:55] <kkkkk1> better to invest some money or download from torrent and save your time
[08:55] <somsip> cfhowlett: the link (from here) is nothing to do with opensource
[08:55] <kkkkk1> thanks
[08:56] <cfhowlett> somsip, ah, heck  - let me fix that bad info... sorry kkkkk1 didn't mean to misdirect

[08:56] <cfhowlett> arrg.  used to be a factoid but ...
[08:57] <KI7MT> still is .. good one too :-)
[08:57] <KI7MT> good for that guy that needed VI v.s. VIM
[08:57] <cfhowlett> KI7MT, and we're all waiting for you to share this tidbit ...
[08:57] <the_drow> Hi guys, I accidently deleted /usr/local/lib/ How do I restore it?
[08:58] <somsip> the_drow: how did you delete it?   What tool may you recommend to clean up some space if I think I have a lot of programs I maybe don't need, and removing a program doesn't remove dependencies automatically? I have a lot of audio, tex, other applications I don't need, they installed with a lot of fonts etc.
[09:05] <Rory> gry: You could use the Disk Usage Analyser to find any large unneeded files or folders
[09:05] <KI7MT> gry: apt-get purge and autoremve
[09:05] <cfhowlett> gry, sudo apt-get purge programnanehere should do it
[09:05] <KI7MT> autoremove
[09:06] <Rory> gry: You could also look at installing Bleachbit which is sort of like ccleaner for Linux
[09:06] <cfhowlett> ^^ also apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean and apt-get clean
[09:06] <KI7MT> gry: also Ubuntu Tweak has a descent janitor in it also.
[09:07] <gry> Rory: I already tried k3dirstat, it is not very helpful as the individual files or directories are not big. KI7MT, I would try apt-get purge and the like, but I would find it useful if it said which programs are taking most space, with dependencies included.
[09:07] <gry> Ok, k4dirstat, not k3dirstat.
[09:08] <gry> Rory: Bleachbit looks small; I am not interested in clearing cookies, while I'm interested in other non-temporary things (the install takes 10GB + 10GB /home already with, I think, most of it in /usr/ or some like).
[09:09] <llutz> gry: you may set "APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant false;" in apt config and hope that apt-get autoremove   removes most of the unwanted stuff
[09:09] <KI7MT> gry: I'd had to do some diggign to find an app that says which packages have the biggest footprint + deps, that can get kinda hairy.
[09:10] <somsip> gry: check unneeded locales
[09:10] <gry> FYI apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean and apt-get clean freed only 200MB or so.
[09:10] <somsip> gry: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[09:11] <KI7MT> gry: one cmli app, localepurge gets rid of allof of unwanted lang packages too, also controls future installs as well.
[09:11] <gry> Locales look like a last resort, there is a package to get rid of those but I'm trying to address the main problem — redundant installed programs and libraries.
[09:11] <the_drow> Does anyone know how to enable SASL support for libmemcached? It seems that ubuntu doesn't compile libmemcached with libsasl by default
[09:11] <somsip> gry: fair enough. I cleared a surprising amount when I deleted dead locales on a recommendation from here
[09:12] <gry> Ok. I think it's not my case. Although I'll think of it if I'm on fire at some point. ;)
[09:12] <Rory> gry: You can remove packages which no other packages depend on, and that you did not manually install, with "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[09:12] <gry> llutz: I'll try the autoremove with "APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant false;" in a moment.
[09:13] <Rory> gry: You can also delete downloaded package installer files in the cache with "sudo apt-get clean"
[09:13] <gry> Rory: That only freed 200MB, I think, like I mentioned a minute ago.
[09:13] <Rory> gry: Ah Sorry I missed that. Take a look with the disk usage analyser you might have some .iso sitting around somewhere or something
[09:13] <gry> llutz: Where can I find "apt config"?
[09:13] <KI7MT> the_drow: See info about mid way down the page: http://blog.couchbase.com/sasl-memcached-now-available
[09:14] <gry> Rory: I used k4dirstat and I will try the disk usage analyser in a moment as well.
[09:14] <llutz> gry: add the entry to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99zzz-personal
[09:14] <Dermhye> hi
[09:14] <KI7MT> Hello
[09:14] <gry> llutz: The file does not exist. Ok to create it?
[09:14] <the_drow> KI7MT: I already know that one. The latest libmemcached has a bug in their compilation process.
[09:14] <llutz> gry: sure
[09:15] <Rory> lol llutz "999zzz-personal" you're taking no chances
[09:15] <KI7MT> the_drow: no work around fer the bug?
[09:15] <gry> llutz: After creating it, apt-get autoremove, or apt-get update first?
[09:15] <llutz> Rory: make sure its the last one being read ...
[09:15] <Rory> llutz: I know, just made me laugh
[09:15] <the_drow> KI7MT: You have to disable -lsanitize=thread
[09:15] <llutz> gry: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get autoremove
[09:15] <the_drow> I'm not sure what that means
[09:16] <llutz> Rory: german perfectionism :(
[09:16] <gry> I wonder how it'd guess that I have LyX installed and don't mind getting rid of it... Hmm. Trying, anyway, it's a wonderful thing to try.
[09:16] <KI7MT> the_drow: me either, I'd have to do allot of digging through the ./confiure & dos to work that one out.
[09:16] <gry> Ah, that's a HUGE list with 1GB freed if I go for it.
[09:16] <KI7MT> *docs not dos
[09:17] <llutz> gry: check the list of removed packages carefully
[09:17] <llutz> gry: _before_ pressing Y
[09:18] <llutz> gry: but in most cases you won't miss anything of the stuff being removed. if you do, just reinstall it later
[09:18] <KI7MT> Backup comes to mind ;-)
[09:18] <gry> llutz: I read it. I think it doesn't pretend to remove anything horridly useful (eg, if one of the things it removes is needed for a program, it would also propose to remove the program, right?) https://pastee.org/ttgtz
[09:18] <llutz> package-list backup
[09:19] <gry> How do I use the backup thing? Command not found.
[09:19] <llutz> gry: dpkg --get-selections >~/mypackages.list
[09:20] <KI7MT> dpkg --get-selections > /package_list.txt  .. I was too slow .. lol
[09:20] <Rory> gry: That's going to break a lot of things, just from a quick glance it will break vlc, it will break any openbox you're using, you'll lose java, and anything that uses python-lxml
[09:21] <Rory> you want to uninstall libpython3.2?
[09:22] <llutz> Rory: lose java?? just a few hardly needed additional packages
[09:22] <gry> llutz: https://pastee.org/6bhec
[09:22] <gry> Rory: I don't know what depends on it. Knowing that would be nice.
[09:22] <MrDyne> Got a sub domain on my server setup with a self signed ssl/https. It's the only https vhost so any https connection show that one subdomain which is a private wiki. I don't want that. How do I make Apache not to default all https to that sub domain.
[09:22] <gry> Probably things would work with python 2.
[09:22] <gry> I might prefer some similar but less automatic tool, rather, semi-automated.
[09:22] <KI7MT> There's allot fo stuff on that list.
[09:23] <Rory> OK well I'm not advocating that command unless you don't care what happens, or know how to fix it
[09:23] <gry> I don't care, I know how to fix it, but I'd not mind a less automated tool still.
[09:23] <gry> Something that does less things for me.
[09:24] <Rory> gry: You could install synaptic and go through all the installed packages, uninstalling anything you don't want
[09:24] <gry> Is removing /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99zzz-personal and apt-get updating enough to get rid of the change it imposed?
[09:24] <llutz> gry: yes
[09:24] <KI7MT> That's probably a good ideas as you can filter by programs, development, etc etc
[09:25] <gry> Ok. I also tried synaptic, it can sort by size of individual package, but not "package and all dependencies".
[09:25] <llutz> gry: now you have a list of packages you manually can edit and remove what seems to be safe for you
[09:27] <llutz> gry: and don't worry about the linux-* packages. those are old unused kernels, you safely can remove if your running kernel works fine
[09:27] <KI7MT> Ubuntu Tweak is good at gettign rid of all those old kernels safely.
[09:27] <gry> llutz: I noticed. :)
[09:27] <llutz> dpkg -l 'linux-*' | sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\(.*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/;/[0-9]/!d' | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge
[09:28] <dipedup0> gry: don't remove them. You may want to run other kernel
[09:28] <gry> Yeh, I know the space they take roughly.
[09:28] <cfhowlett> gry, keep at least ONE old working kernel
[09:29] <dipedup0> When is Ubuntu phone going to hit metro pcs
[09:29] <Rory> !touch
[09:29] <cfhowlett> !phone
[09:29] <gry> cfhowlett: "I have this one, it's a year old as I didn't update. Can I remove everything else?" comes to mind. But that's solid advice, I just should keep looking for a program that shows size of packages in a more tree-like way.
[09:29] <cfhowlett> dipedup0, long answer short: no one knows any details yet.
[09:32] <dipedup0> gry: why remove them. Just leave them.
[09:33] <dipedup0> cfhowlett: they have long way to catch Google android.
[09:35] <dipedup0> Maybe they should go route like apple and make own hardware to.
[09:35] <Rory> dipedup0: I imagine they'll partner with a hardware manufacturer like LG
[09:36] <Rory> dipedup0: Similar to Google and its Nexus phones
[09:36] <Beldar> dipedup0, This is support not your blog on the ubuntu touch.
[09:37] <llutz> dipedup0: stop sending insulting PMs pls or i'm going to tell your parents
[09:37] <Bai11> ls
[09:38] <gry> dipedup0: The hardware way is probably still in the future. It's not uncommon to start with something simple and focus on software initially.
[09:38] <gry> dipedup0: I know, without mentioning names, a mobile OS which invested in really simple hardware to boost interest from developers and shape a rich-featured OS.
[09:38] <Voi> why does my env variable disappear when i close shell?
[09:39] <gry> Voi: you didn't export it in your .bashrc.
[09:40] <Voi> how do i find that .bashrc file?
[09:40] <llutz> Voi: ~/.bashrc
[09:40] <Voi> per shell command
[09:41] <dipedup0> gry: names are okay.
[09:41] <MonkeyDust> Voi  nano ~/.bashrc   <-- mind the dot
[09:42] <ArunC> Hi, I've just installed Ubuntu 13.10 and I'm trying to clone a repo which is served from other linux box (RHEL 6). I get "abort: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden"
[09:42] <ArunC> Any idea whats going wrong?
[09:43] <llutz> !ops | dipedup0 sending insulting PMs repeatetly
[09:43] <ArunC> BTW, the repo is a mercurial repo.
[09:43] <Rory> llutz: Could just ignore him in your client then you won't get them
[09:43] <Voi> agh got it! thanks! how come when i type env i get so many variables, but my .bashrc is emptry?
[09:43] <Voi> empty*
[09:43] <llutz> Rory: sure, still a behaviour not acceptable here
[09:43] <Rory> Voi: There's a set of default environmental variables
[09:43] <dipedup0> ArunC: why not use community repo.
[09:44] <Rory> llutz: More a matter for Freenode staff than this channel's ops
[09:44] <Voi> ok thanks Rory
[09:44] <ArunC> dipedup0: doesn't matter which repo, the clone is failing.
[09:44] <Rory> dipedup0: I think you misunderstand, not a repo like apt or yum, a repo like mercurial, svn or git
[09:44] <dipedup0> ArunC: why not use community repo.
[09:45] <ArunC> Rory: Thanks for that.
[09:45] <Rory> !behelpful | dipedup0
[09:46] <ArunC> Rory: I just tried to serv from ubuntu and to clone on the RHEL. It works fine. I'm able to serv to other boxes.
[09:46] <ArunC> Looks like only clone/push/pull is the problem. Serv is not.
[09:46] <dipedup0> Rory: I am not joking
[09:47] <MrDyne> Any https connection at my sub.domain defaults to my only :433 https entry in my Apache vhosts which is my private wiki setup with a self signed ssl. I only want https://privatewiki.domain to load the wiki. I don't want any other https://*.domain to load the wiki. How do I make Apache not default all https to the wiki subdomain.
[09:50] <MonkeyDust> MrDyne  is that on a server? if yes: there's also #ubuntu-server
[09:50] <MrDyne> Ok
[09:52] <we6jbo> Can I have my audio from one computer streamed to another computer on a LAN?
[09:52] <Symmetria> *hrm* anyone know if there is a live cd that has built in nvidia drivers?
[09:53] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: yes, kind of
[09:53] <Symmetria> I really wanna see if linux can drive my modified setup but I wanna do it on a live cd rather than a complete install just to test incase it doesnt work
[09:53] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: do you mean playing back files from one PC on another, or actually piping audio from one to another
[09:54] <we6jbo> All the audio from one computer playing on another computer
[09:54] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: I think you can do that with pulseaudio
[09:54] <we6jbo> I was thinking about doing that as an alternative to using Bluetooth but I don't know if that would work or if it would be such a good idea
[09:55] <KI7MT> MrDyne: Been a while since I used self-certs, and applied at the domain level, any sub.domain is also covered by the same cert, and you cant seperate them unless its a seperate domain.
[09:55] <xmetal> well i did get everything except the applications back in unity
[09:55] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: 73 de mm0yeq
[09:56] <xmetal> turns out some needed package (I think i have this right) Unity-scope-home was not installed
[09:56] <we6jbo> 73
[09:56] <we6jbo> 73 gordonjcp
[09:56] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAudio/Examples#PulseAudio_over_network
[09:56] <gster> Hi there, I am struggling to mount a drive I cloned with dd. Even after a reboot I got this error while trying to use fdisk: "fdisk: unable to seek on /dev/sdb: Invalid argument". Any help would be grateful.
[09:56] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: you'll need to translate a little for differences between Arch and Ubuntu
[09:57] <MonkeyDust> gster  what was the exact fdisk command?
[10:01] <we6jbo> gordonjcp: I'll continue reading through the website. Thanks for the link
[10:01] <gster> MonkeyDust: If I do fidsk -l the output shows /dev/sda partitions perfectly but regarding /dev/sdb/ , the output is : "Note : sector size is 4096 (not 512)" and then, "fdisk: unable to seek on /dev/sdb : invalid argument"
[10:02] <MonkeyDust> gster  ok, paste this line in a terminal:     sudo apt-get install pastebinit;sudo fdisk -l|pastebinit    and paste the url here in the channel
[10:05] <MrDyne> KI7MT: I don't want domain wide https.. At the moment I only want https to load and work for a single sub domain.. at the moment I can type in any made up https://*sub*.domain and even the main domain and it shows me the wiki.
[10:05] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: what are you trying to do, anyway?
[10:06] <we6jbo> gordonjcp: I wanted to play audio from my 2nd computer wirelessly to my netbook through headphones as an alternative to using bluetooth or wireless headphones
[10:07] <gordonjcp> we6jbo: ah, that pulse stuff ought to do it
[10:07] <we6jbo> to go along with my wireless keyboard
[10:07] <we6jbo> I don't know if there would be too much lag though
[10:08] <gster> MonkeyDust: OK I am posting the pastebin URL shortly. FYI The dd command I used was dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb conv=noerror,notrunc
[10:08] <Clever_Ideot> hello ..
[10:09] <cfhowlett> Clever_Ideot, greetings
[10:09] <gry> Hello.
[10:09] <Clever_Ideot> I have a discrepancy ..
[10:09] <Clever_Ideot> there seems to be issues with php5 packages
[10:09] <Clever_Ideot> I'm repetatively getting error
[10:11] <Clever_Ideot> do u guys know a Marc Daslauriers ??
[10:11] <gry> No. But what with him, and what error?
[10:11] <Clever_Ideot> Get:1 Changelog for php-pear (http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/p/php5/php5_5.3.10-1ubuntu3.9/changelog) [194 kB] php5 (5.3.10-1ubuntu3.9) precise-security; urgency=low    * SECURITY UPDATE: denial of service and possible code execution via     malicious certificate     - debian/patches/CVE-2013-6420.patch: properly validate timestr in       ext/openssl/openssl.c, added ext/openssl/tests/cve-2013-6420.*.     - CV
[10:11] <xmetal> :) fixed the issue
[10:12] <KI7MT> MrDyne: for a simple soluton I'd look into using .htaccess to https requests. Otherwise use mod_rewrite and RewriteCond's to filter requests.
[10:13] <Clever_Ideot> why are php5 packages showing this when attempting to do an install??
[10:13] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: What are you running to get that error? Can you please show me the full command and the full output?
[10:13] <Rory> Please paste the full output onto http://paste.ubuntu.com and share the URL in this channel
[10:13] <Clever_Ideot> apt-get install php5
[10:13] <Clever_Ideot> php5 anything
[10:13] <Clever_Ideot> even happens in synaptic
[10:14] <Rory> OK, can you please show me the full output of "sudo apt-get install php5-cli" on http://paste.ubuntu.com
[10:14] <Clever_Ideot> has there been any other reports of the same issue??
[10:15] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: Not in here, at least that I've seen
[10:15] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: Are you going to show me or not?
[10:15] <Clever_Ideot> okey dokey
[10:16] <Clever_Ideot> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6628389/
[10:17] <me-1> hi....I was doing "sudo apt-get upgrade" in the middle of the process I had power cut . what should I do now..?
[10:17] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: That is all that appears when you run the command "sudo apt-get install php5-cli" ? No other output?
[10:17] <Clever_Ideot> yea dude , that little window pops up
[10:17] <Clever_Ideot> I guess that's in my tmp folder or something
[10:17] <Rory> me-1: Try running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" again - if you get an error, put the output on http://paste.ubuntu.com and show me
[10:18] <gster> MonkeyDust: pastebin.com/bUszA5kW
[10:18] <Clever_Ideot> okey dokey
[10:18] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: Can you please run this command exactly as it's shown here: sudo apt-get -y install pastebinit; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install php5-cli | pastebinit
[10:18] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: That first one was for me-1 not you
[10:19] <me-1> Rory,  I am doing as you said
[10:19] <Clever_Ideot> awww
[10:19] <Clever_Ideot> I don't want to do upgrades
[10:19] <Clever_Ideot> do I have ta??
[10:19] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: It's OK, the second one was for you. I haven't asked you to do upgrades
[10:19] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: Can you please run this command exactly as it's shown here: sudo apt-get -y install pastebinit; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install php5-cli | pastebinit
[10:20] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: It will give you just a single URL, can you let me know what that is please
[10:20] <Clever_Ideot> ok
[10:20] <Clever_Ideot> well I will do php-pear
[10:20] <Rory> Sure
[10:20] <Rory> That's fine, whatever you know gives you an error
[10:20] <Clever_Ideot> what is pastebinit
[10:21] <gry> Clever_Ideot: it sends output to a web page.
[10:21] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: It will automatically put the output of a command onto paste.ubuntu.com
[10:21] <Clever_Ideot> I just pasted the output
[10:21] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: for example "echo hello | pastebinit" will make a pastebin with hello
[10:22] <Clever_Ideot> what other alternatives do I have??
[10:22] <Clever_Ideot> everyone likes options
[10:22] <MonkeyDust> gster  this link shows the same error, but it is zentyal related (which is ubuntu based) -- what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[10:22] <Rory> Ahh Clever_Ideot hold on... can you please try running sudo apt-get remove apt-listchanges
[10:22] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: And then sudo apt-get update, and try your install again
[10:23] <Clever_Ideot> ok, I'll hold
[10:23] <Clever_Ideot> brb
[10:23] <Clever_Ideot> Ima make me a sammich
[10:23] <KI7MT> lol
[10:23] <ObrienDave> food? at a time like this? ;P
[10:23] <gster> MonkeyDust: ubuntu 12.04.1  LTS. I am tunning on a live CD
[10:23] <newworldorder> My messages file is empty and messages.gz.1 etc are from 2011. Why could this be?
[10:23] <bekks> newworldorder: No logging enabled.
[10:24] <newworldorder> How can I enable it?
[10:24] <newworldorder> I am getting an error message every 5 Minutes.
[10:24] <newworldorder> And I want to find out what is causing this.
[10:24] <ObrienDave> umm, turn message logging on?
[10:25] <MonkeyDust> gster  first of all: the latest 12.04 is .3 , maybe that's part of the issue
[10:25] <bekks> And we have to guess the error message?
[10:25]  * lotuspsychje wishes a merry xmass to all #ubuntu users and supporters: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6628415/
[10:25] <ObrienDave> Bah, Humbug. ;))
[10:25] <Rory> bekks: Guess the error message is my favourite game
[10:26] <ObrienDave> whwt? you didn't pass mind reading class? oh, the shame ;P
[10:26] <KI7MT> Seems to be alot of folks playing that game fer sure.
[10:27] <gster> MonkeyDust: I do not understand why I cannot see the partitions on the new drive after running dd (+partprobe/reboot). What about this note about the sector size (4096) ?
[10:28] <andyfied> i'm playing guess what caused the segfault right now
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> gster  nah, it's above my head, never done it myself, i'm sure someone else can help better
[10:28] <andyfied> opening the log causes a segfault too
[10:28] <bekks> newworldorder: So do you want tell us the actual error message?
[10:29] <[Gentoo]> andyfied: nice
[10:29] <Clever_Ideot> hahaha!
[10:29] <matrixa1> Hello! I desperately want snow on my Compiz desktop. The package I need is compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported but it's deprecated in 13.10. What do I do? Can't find a ppa with it
[10:29] <gster> MonkeyDust: This problem happened when I copy the raw device (if=/dev/sda). I tried to do a dd of the partiton (if=/dev/sda1) and It worked but then the partitions is not bootable ...
[10:29] <Clever_Ideot> this is what you do ...
[10:29] <Rory> matrixa1: Blast from the past :) I don't think you'll be able to get that on a Unity desktop
[10:29] <newworldorder> bekks, I clicked it away. I am just reading that there is no more messages file in natty?
[10:29] <Clever_Ideot> you pee in a spray bottle
[10:29] <Clever_Ideot> ...
[10:30] <Clever_Ideot> get  fan
[10:30] <newworldorder> That means that I can delete the messages log files?
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> matrixa1: i found wobbly windows in compiz-plugins-extra
[10:30] <bekks> newworldorder: Dont touch them :)
[10:30] <Clever_Ideot> and put your computer in a freezer
[10:30] <efe> hi
[10:30] <bekks> newworldorder: And without the error message, we cant help you, unfortunately.
[10:30] <[Gentoo]> newworldorder: you could but why
[10:30] <Clever_Ideot> then spray the mist in the fan towards the computer
[10:30] <gster> MonkeyDust: by It worked, I meant I am able to mount the new /dev/sdb1 parttion ...
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> Clever_Ideot: plz stay polite in channel
[10:30] <Clever_Ideot> I was giving advice
[10:30] <matrixa1> Rory, xfce here ;) yeah, it was working once upon a time before packages killed backwards compatibility
[10:30] <[Gentoo]> Clever_Ideot: how is pee related to snow
[10:31] <newworldorder> bekks, it is my dad`s ubuntu laptop. I have to wait until the error message comes again
[10:31] <MonkeyDust> gster  you made it? problem solved?
[10:31] <Rory> matrixa1: I'm not sure xfce even uses Compiz
[10:31] <Clever_Ideot> well why not make it yellow snow
[10:31] <Clever_Ideot> go against the grain
[10:31] <[Gentoo]> newworldorder: do you remember even a little bit of the error
[10:31] <matrixa1> Rory, it doesn't, I just like to have a few effects here and there hehe
[10:31] <bekks> Clever_Ideot: you advice is everything, but helpful.
[10:32] <[Gentoo]> Rory: it uses its own thing
[10:32] <Rory> matrixa1: I think that attempting to hack Compiz into xfce probably isn't worth the hassle
[10:32] <newworldorder> [Gentoo], no
[10:32] <matrixa1> Rory, that said I have Compiz running, I just want the snow plugin
[10:32] <gster> MonkeyDust: no not really, Because I am not able to boot on this drive. So tried to dd the raw device but it is even worst ..
[10:32] <Rory> matrixa1: Oh OK, well maybe you could find the plugin source and compile it?
[10:32] <Clever_Ideot> why don't php5 pachages install
[10:32] <[Gentoo]> matrixa1: maybe you could use a snowy video as desktop background with something like mplayer
[10:32] <Rory> matrixa1: from here http://wiki.compiz.org/Plugins/Snow
[10:33] <Clever_Ideot> I'm completely stumped on this one
[10:33] <matrixa1> [Gentoo], Rory Thank you, both are good alternatives
[10:33] <matrixa1> Merry Christmas!
[10:33] <newworldorder> Is there a good tool for optimization of ubuntu and clean up?
[10:33] <bekks> Clever_Ideot: They give you an error message.
[10:33] <Clever_Ideot> yes
[10:33] <bekks> newworldorder: Those "tools" are not needed in Linux.
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> !info xsnow | matrixa1
[10:33] <[Gentoo]> newworldorder: i guess you come from windows + ccleaner?
[10:33] <newworldorder> [Gentoo], no
[10:34] <Clever_Ideot> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6628442/
[10:34] <[Gentoo]> newworldorder: i wouldnt trust anything like that ccleaner alternative (cant remember what its called)
[10:34] <newworldorder> just don`t want to spend christmas fixing Ubuntu systems
[10:34] <[Gentoo]> newworldorder: you dont want some automated tool touching things
[10:34] <bekks> newworldorder: Then dont do it? No one forcees you to.
[10:34] <[Gentoo]> newworldorder: what things do you want to "clean"?
[10:34] <gster> MonkeyDust: I guess i should try to dd with option -b=512 to ensure sector size is 512 bytes ?
[10:34] <[Gentoo]> look in home and /etc dir for leftover junk from uninstalled programs
[10:34] <[Gentoo]> that wont optimize naything though
[10:35] <newworldorder> log files
[10:35] <Clever_Ideot> so were supposed to come back after christmas break to bugs ??
[10:35] <bekks> Clever_Ideot: Thats a changelog, not an error message.
[10:35] <newworldorder> No logging is currently active and I want to find out why.
[10:35] <MonkeyDust> newworldorder  I use two custom scripts, but you'll have to trust me for it
[10:35] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: Did you try removing that package?
[10:35] <bekks> newworldorder: Because it is disabled.
[10:35] <Rory> Clever_Ideot:  sudo apt-get remove apt-listchanges
[10:35] <newworldorder> I am trying to find out how to enable it.
[10:36] <Clever_Ideot> what are listchanges
[10:36] <newworldorder> http://askubuntu.com/questions/51265/where-is-var-log-messages
[10:37] <bekks> newworldorder: The file name changed and you have to configure syslog to log even more.
[10:37] <Clever_Ideot> I just saw a shooting star and I thought it was a missle
[10:37] <[Gentoo]> Clever_Ideot: you are out of your face
[10:37] <[Gentoo]> but it is christmas
[10:37] <Clever_Ideot> wow
[10:38] <Clever_Ideot> I've never been told that
[10:38] <Clever_Ideot> thank u
[10:38] <[Gentoo]> yw
[10:38] <ArunC> it was the proxy setting.. i added an exception and it worked.
[10:38] <slax0r> hi, anyone done dualboot with windoze 7 and ubuntu?
[10:38] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: Are you drunk?
[10:38] <MonkeyDust> gster  i'm not familiar enough with dd, i'm no help
[10:38] <andyfied> not since 2009
[10:38] <Clever_Ideot> no, I don't drink
[10:39] <newworldorder> What does this mean (an entry from syslog): Dec 24 11:17:49  whoopsie[1074]: last message repeated 13 times
[10:39] <Rory> Clever_Ideot:can you just try running this:  sudo apt-get remove apt-listchanges
[10:39] <Rienzilla> newworldorder: well ehm, that the last message from that process repeated 13 times?
[10:39] <bekks> Rienzilla: Thats too obvious ;)
[10:39] <Rienzilla> it's a way of saving logfile space
[10:40] <Clever_Ideot> okay
[10:40] <Rienzilla> instead of printing it 100 times it just says 'it repeated 100 times)
[10:40] <[Gentoo]> well its to stop spam in the logs
[10:40] <[Gentoo]> mostly
[10:40] <Clever_Ideot> well now the upgrades are taking place, one second please would u kind sir ..
[10:40] <KI7MT> newworldorder: have a look at the ownership of /var/log/syslog ... is it syslog.adm ?
[10:40] <gordonjcp> whoopsie is a horrible name, I didn't think Ubuntu was so deliberately homophobic
[10:42] <newworldorder> KI7MT, yes
[10:42] <Clever_Ideot> u ever get the feelin someone's watchin u ..
[10:42] <Rory> lmao gordonjcp
[10:43] <[Gentoo]> what does whoopsie mean in the logs
[10:43] <gster> MonkeyDust: Ok np. Thanks a lot
[10:43] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: All the time man. It's called Mescaline. It's the only way to fly
[10:43] <Clever_Ideot> it means ur system made a poopoo
[10:43] <[Gentoo]> o dear
[10:43] <newworldorder> Is there a ways to create an KDE based Ubuntu stick for installation from Gnome environment?
[10:43] <Clever_Ideot> what's mescalin
[10:43] <vmuser> is it possible to resize ext4 partitions on the fly
[10:43] <[Gentoo]> Clever_Ideot: i think the system needs to go on the naughty step
[10:43] <Rory> Clever_Ideot: It was a Matrix quote... nvm, offtopic.
[10:43] <bekks> Clever_Ideot: Could you please stop your unhelpful comments?
[10:44] <vmuser> seems like I've run somehow on space on /
[10:44] <Rory> vmuser: Not on the fly, but you can boot from a LiveUSB and sort it out from there
[10:44] <Clever_Ideot> how deep does the rabbit hole go??
[10:44] <bekks> [Gentoo]: hostname[pid]: messagetext
[10:44] <vmuser> Rory, damn, I really don't want to take the machine offline
[10:44] <[Gentoo]> vmuser: you have to
[10:44] <[Gentoo]> to resize
[10:45] <bekks> !ops | Clever_Ideot you you please finally stop the offtopic
[10:45] <Rory> vmuser: If it's a production machine you'll have to notify users of planned maintanance
[10:45] <bekks> vmuser: Clean up space more likely :)
[10:45] <newworldorder> Is it possible to create an Kubuntu live stick from an Ubuntu system?
[10:46] <bekks> newworldorder: Sure.
[10:46] <Clever_Ideot> yes sir
[10:46] <Clever_Ideot> sorry sir
[10:46] <Rory> newworldorder: Absolutely, you can use the Startup disk creator that's included
[10:46] <bekks> newworldorder: just use unetbootin, e.g.
[10:46] <KI7MT> newworldorder: you chek it's running with:initctl status rsyslog   .. and sent a test msg with: logger -i -t TEST -p daemon.info "Test message"
[10:46] <newworldorder> Rory, and simply use the image from Kubuntu.org?
[10:46] <Rory> newworldorder: precisely
[10:47] <Clever_Ideot> ok, changelogs removed
[10:47] <vmuser> Rory, sure
[10:47] <vmuser> bekks, yea I wonder where does 40 GBs are
[10:48] <vmuser> since this is the size of the root
[10:48] <Rory> vmuser: You can use the (included) Disk Usage Analyser
[10:48] <matrixa1> lotuspsychje, have you tried xsnow? It looks terrible
[10:48] <Clever_Ideot> wow, it worked
[10:48] <bekks> vmuser: Then investigate it.start with: du -hx --max-depth=1 /
[10:48] <Clever_Ideot> thanks fellow grammers
[10:48] <Rory> No problem, glad I could help :)
[10:48] <lotuspsychje> matrixa1: no, didnt test myself mate
[10:49] <lotuspsychje> matrixa1: found another old thread about that addon: http://www.techdrivein.com/2010/11/script-to-install-incredible-compiz.html
[10:49] <lotuspsychje> matrixa1: not sure if its still active
[10:49] <matrixa1> lotuspsychje, thanks, I'm currently compiling from source, it looks like this fyi http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=aHaNDZk4NOg#t=15
[10:50] <matrixa1> if I get it working, I'll share :)
[10:50] <lotuspsychje> matrixa1: wow that looks decent eyecandy mate
[10:51] <MonkeyDust> for screencasts, not for production machines
[10:54] <vmuser> didn't think that it was possible to eat up 14gb in /var/lib
[10:55] <Rory> vmuser: is it /var/lib/apt ?
[10:55] <Rory> oh no that's /var/cache/apt, ignore me
[10:55] <Rory> vmuser: You can keep drilling down til you find the culprit folder
[10:56] <lotuspsychje> firefox cache can eat lot aswell
[10:57] <vmuser> Rory, nope vmware
[10:57] <vmuser> wtf
[10:57] <aliendough> hi folks, i'm having a few problems with ubuntu 12.04 on a VPS.  I went to install a GUI but haven't got very far.  When I try to upgrade my packages I get the message"E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/"    I then type in df-H and I get this result - http://pastebin.com/3qB1aQhP   Woudl anyone have any ideas?
[10:57] <vmuser> omg, someone has created a shared vm there :D :D
[10:57] <Rory> aliendough: What does the message say again?
[10:58] <aliendough> "E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/"
[10:58] <Rory> aliendough: There is the answer
[10:58] <aliendough> i have no idea how to change it
[10:58] <Clever_Ideot> partitions
[10:58] <aliendough> or fix it i mean
[10:58] <Rory> aliendough: I can see that you are using 100% of your tiny tiny hard drive
[10:58] <Rory> aliendough: Is it a super-cheap low-end VPS?
[10:58] <aliendough> i have a 35gig HDD space
[10:58] <aliendough> it was cheap, Rory
[10:58] <Rory> aliendough: Not according to df -h
[10:58] <bekks> aliendough: clean up old archives from /var/cache/apt/archives/
[10:58] <aliendough> but i dont understand it too m uch to be honest
[10:58] <KI7MT> vmuser: nice little cmd fer checking things, change /vat/* to what ya need: sudo du -hsx /var/* | sort -n -r | head -n 10     ..
[10:59] <r0ber> buenas
[10:59] <Clever_Ideot> some places try to limit the size of partitions to try and get u to upgrade
[10:59] <Clever_Ideot> run df -h
[10:59] <Rory> aliendough: df -h shows you have 997M and you're using 100% of it
[10:59] <lotuspsychje> !es | r0ber
[10:59] <aliendough> Rory: they said I have 35gig of space....
[10:59] <aliendough> so they make you use 100% of a partition?
[10:59] <Rory> aliendough: Can you show me the output of "sudo fdisk -l"
[10:59] <aliendough> yes, hold on please
[11:00] <Rory> aliendough: It's possible you have a 35 gig hard drive sitting there not mounted
[11:00] <Rory> aliendough: Although at this point you should probably contact your VPS provider for support
[11:01] <aliendough> Rory: http://pastebin.com/J4Bq6fiA
[11:02] <Rory> OK aliendough I can see you have a 35 gig partition but it's set up as swap! How did you set up this VPS?
[11:02] <Rory> aliendough: It's likely you intended to have those partitions the other way round
[11:02] <bekks> Rory: Thats not true.
[11:02] <Rory> bekks: No?
[11:02] <aliendough> Rory: the ChicagoVPS company did it al for me
[11:02] <bekks> Rory: swap is 35 times smaller than the first partition.
[11:02] <Rory> Oh sorry I derped
[11:03] <aliendough> so I need to ask them to change my partitions?
[11:03] <bekks> aliendough: partitions are ok, filesystem size on the firstz one isnt.
[11:03] <aliendough> oh
[11:04] <Rory> aliendough: That almost certainly isn't something you did though, it looks like it was set up wrong
[11:06] <aliendough> when I log in via the web interface to ChicagoVPS's website there is a "rebuild" option and I can choose things like CentOS, Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu...should I try doing this?
[11:07] <Rory> aliendough: Be aware it will nuke your entire VPS, anything you don't have a backup of will be gone
[11:07] <bekks> aliendough: No. That will resetup it and you will lose all data on your VPS.
[11:07] <aliendough> i dont have anything on there.  I paid for this service two days ago and have had nothing but problems :))
[11:07] <aliendough> this is as far as ive got
[11:07] <bekks> aliendough: then call them and urge them to fix it.
[11:07] <Rory> aliendough: I thought as much. If you do that fresh rebuild of Ubuntu and then look at "df -h" hopefully you'll see a 35G partition
[11:08] <Clever_Ideot> I'm having mail server trouble
[11:08] <Clever_Ideot> could it be because of hot damn my hot damn isp??
[11:08] <vool> hello, I cannot connect to freenode with Xchat or Quassel. xchat says "Connection failed. Error: Network is unreachable" and Quassel says "Connection failure: Connection refused
[11:09] <aliendough> thanks, Rory
[11:09] <aliendough> i'm doing a fresh build
[11:09] <bekks> !language | Clever_Ideot
[11:09] <vool> I can only use chatzilla
[11:09] <Clever_Ideot> yes sir
[11:09] <Rory> vool: Do you use a proxy?
[11:09] <Clever_Ideot> I'm .. sorry
[11:09] <LinuxKilledMe> Greetings #Ubuntu. Ive just joined the adventure. I have experienced some vsync problems so i look for it in google.  It only pop On when i press the alimentation button. So straight after, it stop. (logic). Any hints ?
[11:10] <LinuxKilledMe> looked* excuse my french
[11:11] <vool> Rory, I don't think so
[11:11] <vool> Rory, I mean, I haven't changed any setting, it used to work before
[11:11] <lotuspsychje> vool: maybe the #freenode guys might know?
[11:12] <Rory> vool: Try without a secure connection, see if that works
[11:12] <lotuspsychje> vool: you spelled the correct network adress of freenode?
[11:13] <vool> Rory, I am using a new wifi network. probably it is the  reason?
[11:13] <vool> I am also talking to freenode people now
[11:13] <bekks> vool: No, wifi isnt the reason.
[11:13] <vool> is there a way to circumvent this problem?
[11:14] <bekks> Unless you have a cable - no.
[11:14] <lotuspsychje> vool: same error on freenode webchat?
[11:14] <bekks> vool: Is it your wifi network, or is it some public wifi?
[11:15] <Rory> vool: What server are you trying to connect to, and what port? Sure it's identical on chatzilla/xchat ?
[11:15] <Rory> vool: I'm going with proxy, make sure xchat is set to automatically detect proxy settings, or use system proxy settings
[11:15] <vool> lotuspsychje, I haven't tried webchat (it never worked for me) but chatzilla works, which is where I am writing now
[11:15] <LinuxKilledMe> or maybe could you just point me a proper place to seek help
[11:15] <vool> bekks, yes, it is a cafe wifi
[11:15] <Rory> vool: since chatzilla probably uses Firefox proxy settings
[11:16] <bekks> vool: Then maybe the irc ports are blocked as suggested in #freenode. you could ask the wifi owner.
[11:16] <Rory> Yes, Chatzilla may be a webchat in disguise, I'm not familiar with it
[11:16] <lotuspsychje> LinuxKilledMe: re-ask your question here (once in a while)
[11:17] <vool> ok, then I'll stick with chatzilla for the moment :)
[11:17] <Rory> vool: Can you try connecting to irc.rory.sh on port 1025 with ssl, and see if you get an authentication failed, or if you get a network unreachable?
[11:17] <Rory> vool: If you can connect to that, it probably means they're blocking normal irc ports 6667 etc
[11:17] <vool> where do I set proxies, port etc..?
[11:17] <Rory> vool: In xchat? Not sure
[11:17] <vool> on xchat
[11:17] <Rory> vool: Poke around the settings
[11:18] <LinuxKilledMe> lotuspsychje: roger
[11:18] <lotuspsychje> LinuxKilledMe: maybe paste also as much details, ubuntu version etc
[11:18] <vool> Rory, yes, I am trying to figure out where I can change settings
[11:18] <Rory> vool: Presumably edit -> preferences
[11:19] <lotuspsychje> bray90820: been able to fix that apple mouse yet?
[11:19] <bray90820> i kinda gave up
[11:20] <lotuspsychje> bray90820: maybe re-ask in channel
[11:20] <bray90820> what i need to do is find some way to run the script after the mouse connects
[11:21] <bray90820> I have been asking in here for like 24 hours
[11:21] <lotuspsychje> bray90820: enduring pays off :p
[11:21] <vool> Rory, I checked there, but couldnt find. will ask xchat people
[11:21] <MonkeyDust> bray90820  maybe it's simply not possible
[11:21] <bray90820> It should be
[11:22] <bray90820> all i need to do is run a script after a bluetooth device connects
[11:22] <Rory> bray90820: Is this relevant? http://superuser.com/questions/305723/using-udev-rules-to-run-a-script-on-usb-insertion
[11:22] <bray90820> It's a bluetooth mouse
[11:22] <lotuspsychje> apple magic mouse right
[11:23] <bray90820> yes
[11:23] <bray90820> but what really matters is that it's bluetooth
[11:23] <lotuspsychje> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/AppleMagicMouse
[11:24] <bray90820> nope
[11:24] <MonkeyDust> bray90820  try the blueman package (bluetooth manager)
[11:24] <bray90820> did
[11:24] <bray90820> i mean the mouse works if i manually run the bash script every time i boot
[11:25] <MonkeyDust> bray90820  then automate that
[11:25] <bray90820> it actually works if i don't run the script but not well
[11:26] <MonkeyDust> bray90820  create a custom script and put that in your startup application list
[11:26] <bray90820> If i auto mount the script then i runs before the mouse is connected and fails
[11:26] <bray90820> i need to click the mouse before it is connected
[11:26] <bray90820> the mouse sleeps to save power
[11:26] <MonkeyDust> bray90820  or consider using a cable connected mouse
[11:27] <bray90820> I might need to just run the script every time i boot
[11:27] <bray90820> if i put it in my startup apps it does the same thing fails before i click the mouse
[11:30] <LinuxKilledMe> lotuspsychje: sure. sorry but im French AND new to linux. So its not easy as abc fo me. I installed succesfully KUBUNTU 13.10 on my laptop. After experiencing some graphic issues, such as vertical desynchronisations, google told me i had to configure my nvidia optimus card installation. Then I followed a tuto who required a command to be installed. Everything went fine. But at reboot, when kubuntu load my screen is shutted down
[11:30] <Rory> bray90820: !nomodeset | LinuxKilledMe
[11:30] <Rory> oops sorry bray90820
[11:31] <Rory> !nomodeset | LinuxKilledMe
[11:32] <LinuxKilledMe> Rory:  thks alot !
[11:40] <LinuxKilledMe> is there a way to access my hard drive ubuntu prompt through the live cd ?
[11:40] <slax0r> mount it and chroot into it
[11:40] <Rory> LinuxKilledMe: An easier way would be, instead of booting from the Live CD< hold Shift while your normal Ubuntu boots, then boot to Recovery mode
[11:41] <LinuxKilledMe> thks again
[11:42] <aleksejs_> Hi! I have 3.5.0-43-generic 12.10 xubuntu. Problem is with torrent clients - they don't seed. I've tried Transmission, Ktorrent and qBittorrent, played with settings - nothing helps. Any ideas?
[11:43] <Rory> aleksejs_: That's almost certainly your ISP blocking torrent connections
[11:43] <aleksejs_> Rory, everything works with uTorrent@windows
[11:43] <Rory> aleksejs_: OK so you should make sure you have protocol encryption enabled in your torrent clients
[11:43] <aleksejs_> checked
[11:45] <MonkeyDust> aleksejs_  try deluge
[11:46] <Rory> +1 for deluge, it's the most similar to utorrent imo
[11:47] <aleksejs_> thanks, I'll try
[11:48] <aleksejs_> it seems that deluge doesn't know how to import existing torrent :(
[11:49] <Rory> aleksejs_: It can open .torrent files
[11:49] <Rory> aleksejs_: If you have them saved somewhere, you can set it to automatically open .torrent files in a directory
[11:49] <shubhamjain> You mean torrents that are in middle of progress of downloading.
[11:50] <Rory> aleksejs_: If they're in the middle of downloading, you will have to make sure your download directories are the same, and then make it force a re-check of each torrent's data
[11:51] <MonkeyDust> aleksejs_  i guess deluge knows, but you have to find out how
[11:54] <Turingi> so if the hard disk runs out of space that can trigger a kernel panic on boot?
[11:54] <Turingi> using ubuntu server 12.04.3
[11:54] <cfhowlett> Turingi, of course
[11:54] <hellyeah> hey
[11:55] <hellyeah> what was the name of firewall that ubuntu used
[11:55] <cfhowlett> !ufw
[11:56] <aleksejs_> very strange: I've added a torrent, chosen location where downloaded files were, but then it decided to download those files again and make a copies in the same directory
[11:56] <aleksejs_> guess I did something wrong
[11:56] <cfhowlett> aleksejs_, it didn't see the original torrent for some reason
[11:57] <Rory> aleksejs_: if the torrent file is /foo/bar.iso is it downloading to /foo/foo/bar.iso?
[11:57] <Rory> aleksejs_: Or what is it doing? Because you can't have two identically named files in the same directory
[12:00] <aleksejs_> hmm
[12:00] <ObrienDave> aleksejs_, some torrents make their own directory where you d/l it
[12:00] <efe_> hello
[12:00] <cfhowlett> efe, greetings
[12:00] <aleksejs_> I have a partition for downloads, mounted as /data
[12:01] <aleksejs_> and I chosen this partition to download to
[12:01] <efe_> thanks
[12:01] <efe_> I need your help
[12:01] <lotuspsychje> !ask | efe_
[12:01] <aleksejs_> but Deluge decided to download it to ~/
[12:02] <MonkeyDust> aleksejs_  yes, you can change that in the settings
[12:02] <lenz> Hey there! I am on 12.04 and I am using a ATI Radeon HD 3450 graphics card. How do I install the proprietary driver?
[12:02]  * lotuspsychje likes transmission
[12:02] <aleksejs_> I chosed download destination when I added torrent
[12:02] <lotuspsychje> !ati | lenz
[12:03] <efe_> ok, sorry. I am new to OS, and a c/c++ programmer. I wanna join this community. I really dont know where to start from. I am new to ubuntu and need your help and guidance
[12:03] <cummseng> is it possible to make the unity bar only show icons which are open on the current screen? (i have dual screens)
[12:03] <MonkeyDust> aleksejs_  edit > preferences > downloads
[12:03] <ice9> is there a pastebin for pics?
[12:03] <cfhowlett> !contribute|efe,
[12:03] <aleksejs_> hmm, I guess I know where's a problem
[12:03] <lotuspsychje> efe_: you want to help develope?
[12:03] <lotuspsychje> ice9: tinypic?
[12:03] <MonkeyDust> or imagebin
[12:04] <efe_> thanks. Yes I do wanna help develop
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> efe_: #ubuntu-devel
[12:05] <lenz> lotus, according to AMD, I need to install the legacy driver. http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=Legacy2&os=Linux%20x86_64
[12:05] <lenz> lotuspsychje, , according to AMD, I need to install the legacy driver. http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=Legacy2&os=Linux%20x86_64
[12:05] <lenz> It seems to be only supported up to kernel 3.4. 12.04 uses 3.8...
[12:06] <lotuspsychje> lenz: did you check your 'additional drivers' section if any driver list up?
[12:06] <efe_> Thanks friends, lemme go and check the links u sent me
[12:07] <LinuxKilledMe> So Im back. I edited the grub file. Put nomodeset where i had to put it. Now kubuntu freeze at startup. Any hints ?
[12:08] <lenz> lotuspsychje, nothing shows up.
[12:08] <lotuspsychje> merry xmass to all: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6628415/
[12:09] <ObrienDave> Bah, Humbug. ;))
[12:09] <ice9> after i installed gnome-shell from it's repo and installed gedit source to fix a bug, fonts inside gedit now are blured like this pic http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=msn2ia&s=5
[12:10] <aleksejs_> finally!
[12:11] <ObrienDave> !yay | aleksejs_
[12:11] <ianmac1> On which day in April will 14.04 be released? Does Canonical stick to a prticular day?
[12:11] <dv-> when it's ready
[12:11] <ObrienDave> ianmac1, no, not really
[12:11] <aleksejs_> it seems that Deluge ignores manually chosen download location
[12:11] <MonkeyDust> ianmac1  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule
[12:11] <ianmac1> MonkeyDust: Ah, thanks!
[12:11] <MonkeyDust> ianmac1  mind: there are 24 timezones
[12:12] <ianmac1> oh, right
[12:12] <aleksejs_> when I added /data as default location in settings, it started to work right
[12:12] <cfhowlett> ianmac1, when it's done
[12:12] <cfhowlett> :)
[12:12] <aleksejs_> let's see if seeding will work
[12:13] <ianmac1> cfhowlett: it's often done long before it's actually released :)
[12:13] <aleksejs_> no, it doesn't :(
[12:16] <linu1> is there any command to record an audio with mplayer in command line?
