[17:26] <bobweaver> jellyg00se, can you set them under keyboard shortcuts ?
[17:27] <bobweaver> jellyg00se,  with alsa that is
[17:27] <audrianore> islandmonkey, did you mean the double speed thing? (RE: I've had it all the time using 12.04)
[17:27] <islandmonkey> audrianore: Yes
[17:28] <housam> mmmmmmmmm i guess there is now way to do that
[17:28] <noodles_> genii-around: the card appears as plain /dev/sdx, but i wonder if i have to hide the hd, or if the installer itself offers to put grub on the sdcard
[17:28] <JPeterson> do I get a warning when the system run out of ram or does programs segfault without indication that memory allocation failed? (I'm disabling swap on linux running from slow usb 2.0 storage, because id rather have programs crash than cause swapping. But i'd like to know if i can determine when memory allocation failures occur.)
[17:28] <JPeterson> *than?when
[17:28] <infernox> you can tell grub where to install
[17:29] <JPeterson> *than=when
[17:29] <audrianore> MNIchie had the problem on current stable update, and islandmonkey had it all the time. I can't figure it out. :/
[17:29] <Seryth> bobweaver: You can probably guess the result....grr, even after adding b43 to the end of /etc/modules, still nothing. I'm gonna stick with this nick for now
[17:29] <noodles_> infernox: great, thxalot
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> housam: can you pastebin the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'   Thanks
[17:29] <Rikim4ru> Does anyone know a way to connect a Ubuntu box to multiple vpn server simultaniously?
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> infernox: do you have the latest BIOS?
[17:30] <infernox> yeah
[17:30] <bobweaver> Seryth,  do you still have the commands I gave you to make that list then pastebinit ?
[17:30] <jellyg00se> bobweaver: I've got into the keyboard shortcuts reset them as the keys but they were the same as before and within alsa mixer I couldn't find anywhere to assign shortcuts
[17:30] <bigsky> hi all
[17:30] <jellyg00se> but regardless this detracts from the indicator/sound manager on the taskbar :/
[17:30] <Guest18075> Hello guys. I came with a default asus problem with videocam. Here is a screenshot http://2ch.so/s/src/1343236705267.png . Why I can't preload the lib?
[17:30] <Seryth> bobweaver: I will, if I can just look through my history
[17:30] <Seryth> oh wait
[17:30] <Seryth> bobweaver: No, I've got them in a file, let me run it
[17:30] <infernox> what command can i run to see the bios version from inside the os
[17:30] <islandmonkey> Also as I said, this only happens after heavy use of the computer's resources (Intel Core i7 Sandy Bridge Quad Core, 8 GB RAM, NVIDIA GT540M).
[17:30] <MNIchie> audrianore, going to try the latest unstable and see if that fixes the issue
[17:31] <audrianore> MNIchie, sure, give it a try.
[17:31] <bigsky> if there are lots of sources in sourcelist, but i want apt-get to prefer source from local iso, rather than remote mirror, even when remote package is newer than local iso, i wannt aptget to choose local iso, what i should do in order to make it works as i want?
[17:31] <genii-around> noodles_: Ideally to make bios want to boot from the sdcard first and then hopefully installer sees it as sda  ( eg: the first bootable disk) .. but you can always specify if ends up somewhere like sdb/sdc/etc
[17:32] <talsamon> infernox, dmidecode
[17:32] <Guest18075> So can anybody help me?
[17:32] <genii-around> noodles_: Then to make sure grub goes there and not mbr of the first drive
[17:32] <Seryth> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1110536/ bobweaver. Though it says in terminal that "find: ‘./b43legacy’: Permission denied" and "rm: cannot remove `/home/matrix/.wireless': No such file or directory" (my username is matrix). Also, brb dinner.
[17:32] <infernox> dmidecode
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> Guest18075: try: LD_PRELOAD:/opt/lib32/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
[17:32] <islandmonkey> audrianore: Since this problem has occured all the time using 12.04 - I'm not convinced that unstable will help me. What to do?
[17:32] <noodles_> genii-around: that was my first idea, hiding the hd in bios. better safe than sorry;)
[17:33] <bobweaver> Seryth,  sudo apt-get --purge remove firmware-b43legacy-installer
[17:33] <Guest18075> Didn't help =(
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Guest18075: or try: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> I hate skype, such a mess
[17:33] <Chamunks> ActionParsnip,  skype is aweful
[17:34] <islandmonkey> ActionParsnip: Tried Skype 4.0 yet?
[17:34] <Guest18075> Didn't help too
[17:34] <bobweaver> Seryth,  can have two drivers loaded at one time that are fighting for the same card :)
[17:34] <Chamunks> Guess it would make sense that microsoft owns it.
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> islandmonkey: its installed but not used it yet
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> Guest18075: if you run: sudo apt-get install libv4l-0     is it installed?
[17:34] <islandmonkey> It's much better
[17:34] <JPeterson> same question slightly rephrased: do I get a warning when the system run out of ram or does programs segfault without indication from the system that memory allocation failed? (I'm disabling swap on linux running from slow usb 2.0 storage, because id rather have programs crash than cause swapping. But i'd like to know if i can determine when memory allocation failures occur so I can evaluate if I should increase vm ram.)
[17:34] <Guest18075> Yep, it's installed
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> islandmonkey: as long as it stops making stuff appear to not work when its perfectly fine I'll be happy
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> Guest18075: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
[17:35] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: usually OOM killer will jump into action, so a kill -9 will be your "warning"
[17:36] <thelonedrummer18> Dang
[17:36] <Guest18075> Nah, ignored one more time =(
lsb_release -a;uname -a dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|swf|spark'
[17:36] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: this is logged in /var/log/syslog if it occurs
[17:36] <audrianore> islandmonkey: Is the problem only on Chrome, or both with Firefox?

[17:37] <housam> ok thxxxxxxxx
[17:37] <islandmonkey> audrianore: In fact, let me try Firefox
[17:37] <infernox> yeah 1601 is the newest version of the bios
[17:37] <KiteHawk> hello
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> Guest18075: ok run: sudo updatedb; clear; locate *.so | grep v4l; lsb_release -a     what is output please (use a pastebin)
[17:37] <KiteHawk> im having a input sound problem with 12.04
[17:38] <KiteHawk> i can't get the input sound to work but output is working
[17:38] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: if you want to monitor memory usage, use your hypervisor's capabilities or something like collectd in the vm
[17:38] <iceman> hi run like 12.04 x64, but i need to use 32bit java and firefox. any ideas how i can install the 32bit versions for java and firefox?
[17:38] <Guest18075> Hm, guy from one forum said to add this library to LD_LIBRARY_PATH cause it's forbidden to users to preload not added to path libraries
[17:39] <Guest18075> How shall I do it? =)
[17:39] <audrianore> islandmonkey, how is it?
[17:40] <KiteHawk> ubuntu 12.04 sound not working. Any ides?
[17:40] <islandmonkey> audrianore: Gonna have to wait a bit, since I'll need to get my computer using all it's resources to make the problem cause
[17:40] <JPeterson> MasterOfDisaster: it's more a case of getting a message when the lack of swap cause memory alocation failures than to monitor usage. the vm has no way of knowing when memory allocation fails in the guest os.
[17:40] <MNIchie> audrianore, the beta fixed the speed issue, but fullscreen is still broken on dual monitors.  Since the behavior of fullscreen  changed with the update, I am guessing they did something to flash
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: makes and models of things are useful, a question so bare will get no intelligent reposnces
[17:41] <MNIchie> It is at least usable now though
[17:41] <audrianore> KiteHawk: What sound problem?
[17:41] <NewWorld> Guest18075:  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=:/path/to/wherever . Put that in ~/.bashrc if you want it like that permanently
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh
[17:41] <KiteHawk> audigy sound card ubuntu 12.04 new install
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> NewWorld: or make an alias for skpe :)
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: oh man those Creative lumps can be a pain
[17:41] <KiteHawk> you said it
[17:42] <audrianore> islandmonkey, using all the resources to make the problem?
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: can you run the command I gave, upload to the server and a URL will be generated, what is the URL
[17:42] <islandmonkey> audrianore: Also as I said, this only happens after heavy use of the computer's resources (Intel Core i7 Sandy Bridge Quad Core, 8 GB RAM, NVIDIA GT540M).
[17:42] <infernox> on the eeepc all of the softbuttons work but the touchpad on/off button doesn't
[17:42] <audrianore> MNIchie, do you enable or disable the hardware support on the flash?
[17:43] <KiteHawk> ?
[17:43] <KiteHawk> command?
[17:43] <islandmonkey> audrianore: Sorry brb
[17:44] <infernox> he is talking about  wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh
[17:44] <KiteHawk> sry didnt c that post one sec
[17:44] <infernox> you run it from a terminal
[17:44] <audrianore> islandmonkey, oh, so it works normally on normal use? Wow, you got a nice resources on your notebook. :/
[17:44] <audrianore> islandmonkey, sure.
[17:44] <Guest2569> Hi, I've a little problem compiling syslog-ng, I've the following make error:/usr/local/include/glib-2.0/glib/gutils.h:352: multiple definition of `g_trash_stack_height'\.libs/misc.o:/usr/local/include/glib-2.0/glib/gutils.h:352: first defined here
[17:45] <Seveas> Guest2569, your local copy of glib in /usr/local is broken. Has nothing to do with ubuntu
[17:45] <MNIchie> audrianore, it is disabled
[17:45] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: I don't see any othe method than external monitoring of available memory. Nagios/Icinga/Munin/whatever serves this purpose.
[17:45] <Guest2569> Seveas, should I to reinstall glib?
[17:45] <audrianore> What happen if you enable it, MNIchie?
[17:45] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: gets offtopic though, so perhaps you should take this to ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:46] <grendal> Unable to find default provider 'unity-2d-shell' of required provider 'shell'
[17:46] <grendal> how the hell do i fix that?
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> 18:41 < ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh
[17:46] <MNIchie> audrianore, same behavior
[17:46] <Seveas> Guest2569, no, you need to remove it from /usr/local and use the ubuntu-provided one. Maybe do the same with syslog-ng, no need to compile your own :)
[17:46] <PsyberS_> is there a unity keyboard shortcut to spread the windows for the active application? similar to clicking on the app's icon in the launcher (which triggers a spread for that app only)?
[17:47] <Guest2569> Seveas, I need two instances of syslogò-ng, I can't use the deb
[17:47] <KiteHawk> i had to go the slow way sry
[17:47] <Seveas> Guest2569, sure you can, different config should do the trick
[17:47] <MasterOfDisaster> Guest2569: seperate instances of the deps as well? why?
[17:47] <audrianore> Hmm, so it worked fine before that last stable update, right MNIchie?
[17:47] <JPeterson> MasterOfDisaster: well ok. just to make sure we understand each other. i'm talking about an equivalent of the windows kernel triggering the "close programs to prevent information loss" message when memory allocation fails or is about to fail.
[17:47] <MNIchie> audrianore, found a fix
[17:48] <audrianore> MNIchie, how?
[17:48] <Guest2569> MasterOfDisaster, log-server + log relay
[17:48] <iceman> i did sudo apt-get install firefox:i386 openjdk-6-jdk:i386 icedtea-6-plugin:i386, and i get this error:
[17:48] <MNIchie> audrianore, disabling pepper flash fixed the speed and fullscreen issues
[17:48] <MNIchie> From chrome://plugins/
[17:48] <KiteHawk> still waiting
[17:48] <Guest2569> Seveas, ok, good Idea, I've to make some trick in init.d
[17:48] <MasterOfDisaster> Guest2569: as Seveas suggested, you don't need to compile it for that - just start it twice with different configs
[17:48] <iceman> Errors were encountered while processing: firefox-globalmenu:i386    E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[17:49] <iceman> any ideas?
[17:49] <audrianore> Sorry MNIchie, pepper flash? It's a plugin?
[17:49] <Seveas> iceman, you'll need to give us the complete output
[17:49] <Guest2569> How could I uninstall glib
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: waiting for what?
[17:50] <MNIchie> audrianore, yeah it comes with it by default.  I forgot what its purpose is, but I remember hearing that Google was pushing it a few months ago
[17:50] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: I'm not aware of such a mechanism in Linux. The only mechanism I know concerning out-of-memory situations is OOM Killer, which just kills the biggest memory hog.
[17:50] <JPeterson> MasterOfDisaster: ok thx
[17:50] <MNIchie> islandmonkey, Try disabling pepperflash from chrome://plugins
[17:50] <Seveas> MasterOfDisaster, no it does not unfortunately. It just kills the unlucky one that triggers the tipping point
[17:50] <MasterOfDisaster> JPeterson: your're welcome
[17:51] <kevwilde> Hi, i purchased a lacie usb3.0 external drive but my pc does only have usb2 ports. When i plug it in, no /dev/sdX device is found. What could be the issue?
[17:51] <audrianore> MNIchie, I see. By the way, is it normal that I have 2 flash plugins here. :/
[17:51] <Seveas> kevwilde, well, exactly what you describe. You bought a device your computer doesn't recognize
[17:51] <mrdn> MasterOfDisaster: it kills _something_, not necessarily the "biggest memory hog"
[17:51] <Seveas> get a usb 3.0 adapter
[17:51] <Guest2569> Seveas, can I just delete the glib folder?
[17:51] <kevwilde> Seveas: i heard it was backwards compatible
[17:51] <MNIchie> audrianore, yeah Chrome now comes with Shockwave and Pepper.  Adobe is pulling support for shockwave on Linux though
[17:52] <Seveas> kevwilde, what does dmesg say after plugging it in?
[17:52] <KiteHawk> for it to process
[17:52] <kevwilde> nothing
[17:52] <MasterOfDisaster> mrdn, Seveas: http://linux-mm.org/OOM_Killer - at least it should kill the one with the biggest RSS.
[17:52] <KiteHawk> its done
[17:52] <audrianore> MNIchie, no no, that's not what it lies here. Hmm, please wait.
[17:52] <Seveas> well, than it's not as compatible as you hoped :-)
[17:53] <AlphaWolf> I am currently on WHS 2011, but I'm thinking of switching to Ubuntu Server. It would be my first command line-based OS (I've briefly used Ubuntu before, but never really used the command line). Is this a good idea?
[17:53] <Seveas> MasterOfDisaster, ooh, nice, that got improved! Sadly I'm still stuck on 2.6.18 for most of my servers
[17:54] <kevwilde> Seveas: thank you for your input, i'll load it on my other pc
[17:54] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  maybe get a virtual one going to get you feet wet so to say
[17:54] <Seveas> AlphaWolf, what's your goal with the server? It'll be a good idea if ubuntu can meet that goal, otherwise not.
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> KiteHawk: ok what is the URL given?
[17:54] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  there is also canonicals landscape services
[17:55] <MNIchie> audrianore, http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=108086
[17:55] <MNIchie> The fullscreen thing is a known issue apparently
[17:55] <AlphaWolf> Seveas, I currently use it as a media server (Plex), network storage (backups for Mac and Windows computers) and a development web server
[17:55] <audrianore> MNIchie: I'm having 2 Shockwave Flash here. First, I have Shockwave Flash 11.3 r31, which is the one called PepperFlash. Second, Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202.
[17:56] <MasterOfDisaster> Seveas: well - last time I witnessed OOM Killer in action it performed as advertised on RHEL 5 (which is 2.6.1x), killing the process consuming the most memory. No idea on how it behaved before that.
[17:56] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, I have heard of that, I'll take another look at it
[17:56] <audrianore> MNIchie: 11.2 and 11.3. Do I need both of them?
[17:56] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  you can install plex on ubuntu also
[17:56] <Seveas> AlphaWolf, that'll be possible with mediatomb, samba and apache :)
[17:56] <MasterOfDisaster> Seveas: or I was just lucky :)
[17:56] <MNIchie> audrianore, <IP_ADDRESS> is pepper.  Look at the location field, it should mention Pepper
[17:56] <Seveas> MasterOfDisaster, I think you're lucky. Mine are centos 5 too and I definitely had sshd killed by it
[17:57] <MasterOfDisaster> Seveas: that's very unfortunate *snicker*
[17:57] <Seveas> well, long live func. Could restart sshd with it :)
[17:58] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, Seveas, I have checked all the programs I use and I believe they all have versions that will work on Ubuntu, but obviously there's no GUI (by default), so that way my main issue. I have setup a virtual box, but I can't get it to allow me to access "over the network" to test things and see if I'm doing them correctly.
[17:58] <AlphaWolf> *was my, sorry
[17:58] <Seveas> AlphaWolf, did you install openssh-server?
[17:59] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  you have set the network of the VBox to be bridged ?
[17:59] <audrianore> MNIchie, yes like what I said before. I read the location field. So I don't need both plugins, right?
[18:00] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  if you are all about the gui there are packages like lxde-core gnome-core icewm fluxbox they are all lightweight guis well all but gnome-core that is
[18:00] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, no, but I've just changed that and I'll test it again. I guess I need to learn a little more about networking :)
[18:00] <MNIchie> audrianore, it is working fine with pepper disabled for me.  I'm sure it serves some purpose though, but youtube works and thats all I use flash for
[18:00] <thechef> not sure where to ask, but is there an eta for steam
[18:01] <bobweaver> thechef,  wish I knew that and also eta 4 unity3d 4.0
[18:02] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, I would not be using this box at the machine, only remotely, so if the GUI works remotely, then I'll try some of those out, but otherwise I'll learn some command line things?
[18:02] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  it is always a good Idea to learn bash for scripting and all sorts of other things
[18:03] <audrianore> MNIchie, I see. After all, my PepperFlash version is <IP_ADDRESS>, and yours is <IP_ADDRESS> on the latest unstable release, right?
[18:03] <The10thDragon> whats up
[18:03] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, I guess it'll take a little longer to learn, but it'll be better in the end. I'll just get a tool to remotely use the command line then, thank you :)
[18:03] <MNIchie> right
[18:04] <BobMarley> hello
[18:04] <bobweaver> Yeah AlphaWolf  you could ssh over and vnc back but .. kinda a pain
[18:04] <The10thDragon> i have dl vmware but dont know how to install it..its currently on my desktop
[18:05] <ThinkT510> !vmware | The10thDragon
[18:05] <The10thDragon> thank you
[18:05] <BobMarley> i have installed thnderbird and after using it a bit i want to uninstal it, i dont know where (the folder)the emails that have been downloaded , nad now i would like to know if i will uninstall thunderbird thtought synaptics then the folder with all emails will also be delted?
[18:06] <JPeterson> how do i refresh the unity launcher icons? i have dragged a .desktop file to the launcher, and it's using the old icon even though i've removed the icon and readded it, and closed and started ('startx') unity
[18:06] <bobweaver> JPeterson,  unity --replace
[18:07] <Seryth> bobweaver: It's done, purged it....rebooting, gimme a mo
[18:07] <audrianore> MNIchie, great. We know the cause, so we can report it. Nice work. :)
[18:08] <dv310p3r> After installing LAMP via tasksel my desktop is gone, after restart I only get enterprise login?
[18:08] <dv310p3r> Ubuntu 12.04
[18:08] <The10thDragon> any 1 know how to set up an private irc?
[18:08] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, Is it possible to create a partition on my current HDD and install Ubuntu Server on there, without formatting the entire drive? When I installed it it looked like I had to format the entire drive
[18:09] <bobweaver> !partition | AlphaWolf
[18:09] <bobweaver> er that is old AlphaWolf  sorry about that look up partitioning a harddrive
[18:09] <The10thDragon> any 1 know how to set up an private irc?
[18:09] <OerHeks> The10thDragon, join a #room that does not exist, so you are the 1st user
[18:09] <bobweaver> AlphaWolf,  what is OS on the server ?

[18:10] <ThinkT510> The10thDragon: better answered in #freenode
[18:10] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, Currently WHS 2011, which I can easily create a partition with, but I wanted to make sure it wouldn't format the whole drive when I install Ubuntu
[18:11] <ThinkT510> AlphaWolf: i always pick custom partitioning
[18:11] <pb> how we doing
[18:11] <bobweaver> ahh AlphaWolf  you can make many and I say you should for sql and apache but that is just me
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: press ALT+F2 and run:  r
[18:12] <AlphaWolf> bobweaver, maybe down the line, but for now, I'll just dip my toes :)
[18:12] <The10thDragon> .
[18:12] <AlphaWolf> thinkT510, I'll look out for that when I'm installing, thanks!
[18:12] <JPeterson> ActionParsnip: why would that have anything to do with unity launcher icons?
[18:12] <ThinkT510> AlphaWolf: vms are a great testing ground
[18:13] <bobweaver> JPeterson, lets see the .desktop file plz in paste.ubuntu.com
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: its a shortcut to make Unity reload, so it will reread the config and reload, drawing the icon.
[18:13] <BobMarley> i have installed thnderbird and after using it a bit i want to uninstal it, i dont know where (the folder)the emails that have been downloaded , nad now i would like to know if i will uninstall thunderbird thtought synaptics then the folder with all emails will also be delted?
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: seems prett spot on if you ask me
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> BobMarley: ~/.mozilla/thunderbird
[18:14] <ThinkT510> ActionParsnip: just "r" or does that autocomplete?
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> ThinkT510: just 'r' on it's own
[18:14] <trism> JPeterson: how did you edit the .desktop entry? if it wasn't manually, some of the editors leave multiple Icon= lines, so you may not get the icon to expect
[18:14] <ThinkT510> ActionParsnip: awesome, thanks for the info
[18:15] <JPeterson> trism no its one icon line
[18:15] <andyrossy> how do i upgrade ubuntu to freebsd?
[18:15] <ThinkT510> andyrossy: you don't
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> andyrossy: reinstall
[18:16] <jagginess> andyrossy, what's freebsd?
[18:16] <genii-around> Heh
[18:16] <JPeterson> ActionParsnip: r, <enter> does nothng
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> jagginess: its a completely different branch of Linux
[18:16] <andyrossy> ^_^
[18:16] <jagginess> ActionParsnip, oh really!
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: try: unity --replace
[18:16] <genii-around> ActionParsnip: Actually it's unix
[18:16] <ceege> LOL, or maybe BSD unix, which came long before linux
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> jagginess: yes, research and you will find (its offtopic here)
[18:16] <JPeterson> unity --replace flashes the display, but leaves the old icons
[18:17] <Seryth> bobweaver: Ugh, still nothing even after purging legacy-installer
[18:17] <bobweaver> JPeterson, Can we see the .desktop file lol
[18:17] <Andril> hello
[18:17] <ThinkT510> ActionParsnip: describing freebsd as a branch of linux is wildy misleading
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> genii-around: true enough
[18:17] <bobweaver> Seryth,  run them commands again
[18:17] <bobweaver> to get the pastebinit output Seryth
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> ThinkT510: a quick research and the user will be enlightened
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> ThinkT510: the world didn't explode...
[18:18] <Seryth> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1110608/ bobweaver...again with the find b43legacy thing as before, it says  permission denied
[18:18] <JPeterson> bobweaver: that's meaningless. there's no special lines in it
[18:18] <bobweaver> Seryth,  what about    dmesg | grep b43
[18:19] <JPeterson> bobweaver: the problem is why the unity launcher doesnt show the icon in the file, but the icon that used to be in the file
[18:19] <bobweaver> JPeterson,  what kinda image is there a mistype ect
[18:19] <JPeterson> no
[18:19] <kantoka> Hi guys! I'm having problems with Gparted in 12.04 (64). When started, it just "Scanning all devices" forever. Any suggestions?
[18:19] <Seryth> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1110611/ bobweaver
[18:19] <bobweaver> are you using quick lists ?
[18:19] <bobweaver> JPeterson, ^^
[18:19] <tcial> Hi, I have put the xUbuntu live CD into my computer, and I get a screen where there is a person in a circle, then after that, I get a black screen with a flashing cursor, what is the problem?
[18:20] <jagginess> kantoka, maybe there's a faulty usb connection
[18:20] <bobweaver> That is it that is all you get Seryth  weired
[18:20] <Seryth> bobweaver: yup...
[18:20] <kantoka> jagginess: No USB drives attached :(
[18:20] <jagginess> kantoka, by any chance you using ldm?
[18:21] <bobweaver> Seryth,  iwscan        works ?  DONT paste that plz
[18:21] <kantoka> jagginess: ldm?
[18:21] <jagginess> kantoka, brand new drive?
[18:21] <tcial> Is it to do with my graphics card?
[18:21] <Seryth> iwscan: command not found, bobweaver
[18:21] <vokevybez> try to convert .tar.bz2 archive into .deb archive output is ¨already installed a later version¨ but  i have not install how do i fix this?
[18:22] <bobweaver> iwlist scan    << Seryth
[18:22] <ThinkT510> !nomodeset | tcial
[18:22] <JPeterson> wheres the unity launcher config?
[18:22] <tcial> I just read about that, thanks ThinkT510
[18:22] <tcial> :)
[18:22] <tcial> ]
[18:22] <Seryth> bobweaver: k
[18:22] <kantoka> jagginess: No new drives. I just upgraded made a fresh installation on 12.04. Used 11.10 before
[18:22] <jagginess> JPeterson, search "tweak" with package manager, it'll then show up as a green icon with 'System settings'
[18:22] <Seryth> bobweaver: The only interfaces listed are eth0 and lo, neither of which support scanning.
[18:23] <ThinkT510> vokevybez: what is the package?
[18:23] <kantoka> jagginess: 11.10 were on same disk
[18:23] <jagginess> JPeterson, i mean search for "tweak", find the one, install it, then it'll be under system settigns
[18:23] <Seryth> bobweaver: wlan0 or wlan* doesn't exist O.o
[18:23] <JPeterson> jagginess: *file. i.e. wheres the config file
 a c2ctl.tar.bz2 archive
[18:24] <trism> JPeterson: there isn't one, it is in gsettings, com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites (and it is just a list of .desktop names)
[18:24] <ThinkT510> vokevybez: what is c2ctl?
[18:24] <bobweaver> Seryth,  funny umm..   do you have anything installed under additional driver
[18:24] <Seryth> bobweaver: nvidia stuff
[18:24] <jagginess> kantoka, are you trying to upgrade 11.10 with a 12.04 cd? (i'd be sure it's the same type of build, eg either 32-bit or 64-bit, dont install 64 on 32)
[18:24] <vokevybez> ThinkT510: an overclocking program
[18:24] <JPeterson> trism: there is no file? since when is data stored outside iles?
[18:24] <bobweaver> Seryth,  nothing about your wireless ?
[18:24] <JPeterson> *files
[18:25] <trism> JPeterson: well, there is the dconf database, but it isn't text
[18:25] <smj> I'm getting "minicom: cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: Input/output error" when trying to connect to USB <-> RS-232 with minicom terminal
[18:25] <jagginess> JPeterson, what are you trying to ask?
[18:25] <ThinkT510> !checkinstall | vokevybez
[18:25] <kantoka> jagginess: No upgrade. Made a fresh install by writing over the "11.10" content
[18:25] <Seryth> bobweaver: Nothing
[18:26] <JPeterson> jagginess: i'm tracing an error. that the unity launcher, when dragging a .desktop to it, display another icon that the one specified in the .desktop file
[18:26] <Dice-Man> hi
[18:26] <jagginess> kantoka, that doesnt sound too good, you should backup the data, then wipe out your install by reformatting it..(there's alot of junk left hanging around)
[18:26] <JPeterson> *that=than
[18:26] <Dice-Man> i cannot change my terminal profile
[18:26] <audrianore> Hi, Dice-Man.
[18:26] <jagginess> kantoka, by backing up data, i mean /home only of course
[18:27] <Dice-Man> anyone know how to solve this ?
[18:27] <vokevybez> ThinkT510: iĺl chaeck right now
[18:27] <jagginess> JPeterson, you're trying to make desktop launchers?
[18:27] <vokevybez> check i mean
[18:27] <bobweaver> Seryth,  sudo apt-get install firmware-b43legacy-installer && sudo apt-get remove  firmware-b43-installer
[18:27] <tcial> What is the difference between primary and logical partitions?
[18:28] <JPeterson> jagginess: ya if it's not beyond my education level
[18:28] <audrianore> Change your terminal profile like what, Dice-Man?
[18:28] <JPeterson> gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Launcher displays nothing basically
[18:28] <jagginess> JPeterson, i believe you need to enable it with the ubuntu tweak tool..
[18:28] <ThinkT510> vokevybez: beware of dependencies, compiling really should be the last resort
[18:29] <jagginess> JPeterson, (it may be called ubuntu-tweak, which tweaks the unity desktop-- there would be a switch to allow desktop launcher/icons)
[18:29] <Seryth> bobweaver: Do I need to put b43legacy back in /etc/modules?
[18:29] <kantoka> jagginess: I installed 12.04 from install CD, choosing the option #2 in partition step (losing any previous content )
[18:29] <JPeterson> jagginess: they are all
[18:29] <JPeterson> allowed
[18:29] <ThinkT510> tcial: you can have a totale of 4 primary partitions, an extended partition contains logical partitions
[18:29] <tcial> Weird, Ubuntu isn't toggling my caps lock light
[18:29] <bobweaver> Seryth,  not at this moment run the sudo modprobe b43legacy
[18:29] <trism> JPeterson: there really isn't any magic to it, unless possibly you named the .desktop file the same name as another one somewhere else (but that seems to be fixed in 12.04), then there is probably an error in the .desktop file itself
[18:30] <Seryth> bobweaver: Great, network is now being displayed
[18:30] <Seryth> I'll try connecting
[18:30] <jagginess> ThinkT510, the idea of "logical partitions" doesnt exist in GPT.. it only exists in dosmbr partition table style. (wikipedia has info on this)
[18:30] <vokevybez> ThinkT510: yup iĺl check them with apt-rdepends
[18:30] <burnt> would it be possible to do a base install of say ubuntu 8 and just upgrade the distro to 12.04
[18:30] <burnt> and not have any probs?
[18:30] <ThinkT510> jagginess: i'm aware of that
[18:31] <JPeterson> trism: how do i show the launcher settings. gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Launcher fails
[18:31] <ThinkT510> jagginess: is he using gpt?
[18:31] <trism> JPeterson: gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites;
[18:32] <jagginess> ThinkT510, the old days of 16-bit dos was limitted to "4" partitions.. so a way to overcome 4 partitions was to make a "fake" partition, which is an "extended" partition. This "extended" partition actually "extended" the partition table to hold more entries.. (so essentially the extended partition "hosts" another partition table, which is consecutive records to sector 0)
[18:32] <genii-around> burnt: You'd have to go 8.04-10.04-12.04
[18:32] <JPeterson> trism: thx. it lists the right .dekstop file
[18:32] <vokevybez> ThinkT510: so if i use check install i can convert the *.tar.bz2 file into *.deb?
[18:32] <JPeterson> step 2. where is the unity luancher icon cache?
[18:32] <ThinkT510> jagginess: again, i know this, somebody was asking and that was what i was explaining to them
[18:32] <jagginess> ThinkT510, parted /dev/<DEVICE> p   , would say if its msdos (aka dosmbr), or GPT
[18:33] <ThinkT510> vokevybez: it would compile it and create a deb at the end
[18:33] <ThinkT510> vokevybez: provided it doesn't run into errors
[18:34] <vokevybez> ThinkT510: ok will reply after i complete
[18:34] <ubuntuusers> Hello, I have a question regarding Cinnamon/Mate. I'm using Ubuntu since I got some problems with Mint but still want to try out those WMs. Should I add them via PPA or add the Mint-Repo to the sources.list?
[18:34] <Seryth> bobweaver: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1110625/
[18:34] <Seryth> bobweaver: That's dmesg
[18:35] <JPeterson> trism: i see now, missed it before, that there is a Icon[en_US] and a Icon entry
[18:35] <bobweaver> Seryth,  sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree
[18:36] <Sven9> Hi im having some issues to migrate zimbra 6.0.6 server to a newer 7.2.0
[18:36] <ThinkT510> ubuntuusers: we can't really help you, those are unsupported desktops
[18:36] <Sven9> imapsync failes unfortunatly and im stuck because i really need to move inboxes mail aliases and users to the new server
[18:36] <Seryth> bobweaver: Okay, it's installed
[18:36] <trism> JPeterson: working now?
[18:37] <Seryth> bobweaver: Should I reload the b43legacy?
[18:37] <bobweaver> Seryth,  sudo rmmod b43legacy  && sudo modprobe b43legacy
[18:37] <jagginess> ThinkT510, there's only 1 desktop, and that's unity lol.. anything else becomes broked :p
[18:37] <ThinkT510> ubuntuusers: just so you know, never mix repos
[18:37] <Seryth> bobweaver: I predicted it \o/ I'm learning! :)
[18:37] <ThinkT510> jagginess: why are you telling me this?
[18:37] <jagginess> ThinkT510, PPA's are fine.. but he should be aware how safe the adding ppa is
[18:37] <bobweaver> Seryth,  :)
[18:37] <jagginess> !ppa
[18:38] <Seryth> bobweaver: Oh, and just out of interest, does iwlist scan scan for wireless networks much faster than if I waited for it to do it automatically?
[18:38] <gogo_> sa herkese
[18:38] <ThinkT510> jagginess: there are several supported desktops
[18:38] <ThinkT510> jagginess: xfce, gnome-shell, kde, lxde
[18:38] <bobweaver> Seryth,  Not sure to be 100% honest
[18:39] <Seryth> bobweaver: Exactly the same result as what I pastebinned to you before - wlan2 timed out, probe responded, timed out
[18:39] <gogo_> hi everyone can i ask a question
[18:39] <Seryth> !ask | gogo_
[18:39] <jagginess> yes, there's a good number of them, even light window managers.. perhaps he should know he doesnt really need ppa if he can find one he wants already int he official repos.. but trying to set back unity afterwards is problematic (from experience.. hence unity seems to be the only desktop really supported)
[18:40] <bobweaver> Seryth,  ok lets look at innterfaces file I guess       cat /etc/network/interfaces | pastebinit
[18:40] <gogo_> i want play games on playonlinux but i did not see a price on games how can i know games prices ?
[18:40] <DarkSim> I'm using Ubuntu 12.04, I selected Gnome classic, now I have no system tray and I can't log out. It's set to auto login so I can't change if I reboot the comp
[18:40] <Seryth> bobweaver: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1110642/ and is it just me, or is this a really weird problem?
[18:41] <DarkSim> How can I log out without a system tray?
[18:41] <trism> DarkSim: did you remove the indicator-applet? alt+right click, add to panel, indicator applet complete
[18:41] <bobweaver> Seryth,  mind if I PM you ?
[18:41] <trism> DarkSim: gnome-session-quit; in a terminal will also allow you to log out
[18:42] <Seryth> bobweaver: Go ahead
[18:42] <x12> I have a problem with installing ubuntu, i had nomodeset, and I got to 'downloading packages' and now I have a black screen, the screen says no signal
[18:42] <gogo_> i want play games on playonlinux but i did not see a price on games how can i know games prices
[18:42] <romy420> DarkSim ... CTRL-ALT-DEL
[18:43] <x12> What could cause it?
[18:43] <x12> The HDD light is flashing, and the cd spins up every so often, so I think it's still installing
[18:43] <x12> i don't want to reboot it
[18:44] <gogo_> i want play games on playonlinux but i did not see a price on games how can i know games prices
[18:44] <ThinkT510> gogo_: you need to own the game, playsonlinux doesn't sell them
[18:44] <MonkeyDust> gogo_  visit their websites
[18:44] <gogo_> ok i got it
[18:44] <x12> Any idea why this has happened?
[18:44] <gogo_> regards
[18:45] <x12> I can access CTRL+ALT+F1
[18:45] <x12> Oh wait, it's back now -_-
[18:45] <JPeterson> how do i drag the unity launcher to another side? (i.e. top, right, bottom)
[18:45] <MonkeyDust> JPeterson  not
[18:45] <ThinkT510> JPeterson: not supported
[18:46] <JPeterson> ok

[18:50] <flux242> hi, I have a strange problem with the network-manager. If I disconnect from an access point on 13 channel it is not possible to connect again. It seems like network-managers sees only up to 11 channel (sic!). Only reboot helps. ath5k
[18:50] <Geemili> Is this the right place to ask questions about ubuntu server?
[18:50] <Pici> Geemili: yes, but theres also #ubuntu-server
[18:50] <Geemili> Ok. I think I'll go there
[18:51] <flux242> and it's perfectly legal to use channels up to 13 in my place
[18:52] <xomp> hello, would anyone know how I can copy one machine to another via rsync? I want to clone one system to another if that makes sense.
[18:52] <ThinkT510> !clone | xomp
[18:53] <xomp> ThinkT510, can that be done via terminal? I do not use a DE currently.
[18:54] <ThinkT510> xomp: all those are terminal commands

[18:55] <xomp> this is what I get

[19:07] <hanning> lets say i can browse and see /boot/grub from within grub rescue, but when trying to boot that partition, grub isn't able to find anything there. what could be a cause for this? (no raid or anything here)
[19:09] <MonkeyDust> Lucciano  what's a bnc?
[19:09] <Luceo> MonkeyDust: IRC bouncer
[19:10] <Luceo> It's something you connect to which keeps you always connected

[19:11] <troulouliou_dev> hi i have a custom startup script from a live USB disk based on ubuntu that set the same mac address to 2 nic
[19:11] <b0nghitter> i installed qemu-kvm package qith apt-get, but qemu-system-i386 says the kvm kernel module was not found. do i need to install something else?
[19:11] <troulouliou_dev> is it possible to know the origina lnick
[19:12] <troulouliou_dev> the original nic mac adress
[19:12] <Lucciano> MonkeyDust: so, anny ideas?
[19:12] <Lucciano> any*
[19:13] <b0nghitter> troulouliou_dev, boot on a live cd whcih will not change the mac
[19:13] <b0nghitter> ubuntu desktop for example
[19:13] <b0nghitter> then write it down
[19:14] <troulouliou_dev> b0nghitter, yep nice tip :)
[19:14] <b0nghitter> dmesg might show the original also

[19:20] <MonkeyDust> b0nghitter  there's a channel called #kvm
[19:21] <bekks> b0nghitter: lsmod|grep kvm
[19:21] <b0nghitter> ok ty, ill check now
[19:21] <wifioregon> So do I need to run the "additional drivers" while plugged in ethernet in order to install wifi?  Or can I download the driver on another computer and bring it over?
[19:21] <b0nghitter> bekks, nope, it appears it is not loaded
[19:23] <b0nghitter> there is kvm.ko kvm-amd.ko and kvm-intel.ko... do i just modprobe kvm, or all 3?
[19:25] <bekks> b0nghitter: just kvm
[19:25] <b0nghitter> ok ty

[19:28] <xomp> ah ok
[19:28] <ThinkT510> xomp: ah
[19:28] <ThinkT510> xomp: aptitude isn't installed by default anymore
[19:29] <xomp> ThinkT510, does that mean I have to strangly do 'apt-get aptitude' ?
[19:29] <xomp> I'm not following lol
[19:29] <ThinkT510> xomp: you'd need to install that or translate those commands into apt-get equivilants
[19:29] <MonkeyDust> xomp  type /msg ubottu aptitude to find out why
[19:30] <fellayaboy> where can i find info on developing gnome 3 panel applets
[19:30] <xomp> so querying the bot as to why aptitude is no longer used will help me with my problem?
[19:31] <fellayaboy> anyone know where i can find info on developing gnome 3 panel applets
[19:32] <Pici> xomp: you can install aptitude if you like, but aptitude doesn't play nice on multiarch installs (64bits)
[19:33] <xomp> I just tried sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep '[[:space:]]install$='| awk '{print $1}' > installedpackages
[19:33] <xomp> and got a nice 0byte file named 'installedpackages'
[19:34] <xomp> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/clone-your-ubuntu-installation.html
[19:34] <xomp> using those directions
[19:34] <xomp> it's as if I'm trying to find help for some old OS that has outdated support documentation :/
[19:35] <xomp> Ubuntu is still a popular linux distro isn't it?
[19:35] <xurious> Very popular.
[19:36] <Kostic> msg NickServ identify doublediehard993
[19:36] <xomp> v0v
[19:36] <audrianore> Indeed.
[19:36] <Pici> xomp: our documentation and factoids are all maintained by volunteers. It is possible that within our 6 month development cycle things go out of date.
[19:36] <audrianore> Wow
[19:36] <crazyharry> what does this line mean foreach ref(`ls *.fa`)
[19:36] <audrianore> That guy just showed us his password. :/
[19:36] <crazyharry> sorry worng window
[19:36] <xomp> Pici, yeah, the bad thing about all of this is nobody is around to fix the depreciated commands for a lot of stuff
[19:37] <xomp> these pitfalls are what holds linux back in a lot of respects
[19:37] <xomp> but enough of my cool story, I'd just like to clone my installed packages so I can move them to another ubuntu box
[19:38] <xomp> and the info on the poorly maintained bot is no longer relivant and google search suffers the same fate

[20:02] <KiteHawk> samba filesharing
[20:02] <DrSlony> johnny_ : usb stick. samba over wifi is shit slow.
[20:02] <joel135> DrSlony: you could issue 'dpkg --get-selections | grep bz2', but I know there's a more elegant way of doing it
[20:02] <MasterOfDisaster> johnny_: samba (windows filesharing) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/
[20:02] <KiteHawk> jonny: i think you wanna setup samba file sharing
[20:02] <kyle__> DrSlony: Eh, it's not really that slow.  Maybe you just have sucky wifi?
[20:02] <DrSlony> joel135 "apt-cache policy .*libbz2.*" :]
[20:03] <DrSlony> kyle__ my wifi hardware and link quality are great. Its slwo.
[20:03] <JohnnyonFlame> thanks for everyone
[20:03] <DrSlony> if you want to share large files around the house, usb.
[20:03] <KiteHawk> Anyone know about Airtime 2 and Mixxx
[20:04] <kyle__> DrSlony: Comparing it to smb over end-to-end-gigabit with quality cables, yes, slow.  Compared to NFSv4 or SCP over wifi, it's fine.
[20:04] <guntbert> DrSlony: I'd use aptitude search bz2 (aptitude is fine as long as you only use it for searching)
[20:04] <Leonardo_> Is it not possible to get a videochat in aMSN or emesene?
[20:04] <DrSlony> guntbert thx, will try that too
[20:04] <kyle__> Leonardo_: I kdinfo don't think MSN (MicroSoft Network) had linux in mind when they made their video chat...
[20:05] <KiteHawk> any irc that supports airtiime 2 and/or mixxx
[20:05] <TopGrL> Hi
[20:05] <KiteHawk> ?
[20:05] <Leonardo_> Kyle: sorry?
[20:06] <kyle__> Leonardo_: You were asking to get an MSN video chat from ubuntu?  Or did I misunderstand.
[20:06] <Leonardo_> yes
[20:06] <KiteHawk> Airtime 2 anyone?
[20:07] <kyle__> Leonardo_: Oooh.  That a wasn't a typo, I'm sorry, I just realized you were talking about aMSN (never used it).
[20:07] <robertzaccour> how do you enable backports in Ubuntu?

[20:08] <Leonardo_> Is it not possible to make a videochat with any of my windows live contacts? :/
[20:09] <TopGrL> It is possible I think.
[20:09] <TopGrL> I use it
[20:09] <Leonardo_> how?
[20:09] <brophat> my wifi driver is rt2800pci so are firmware updates taken care of by the general ubuntu software updates?
[20:09] <brophat> wow TopGrL a girl in the ubuntu room, you must be nixie pixel bwahahahaha
[20:09] <kyle__> Leonardo_: Video chat relies on a ton of different standards.  Make sure you have the right libraries/codecs installed.  If you got amsn from apt-get, it may only support "free-as-in-speech" codecs.  Just a guess.

[20:14] <semitones> how do you get out of a frozen desktop from the virtual terminal?
[20:16] <kyle__> semitones: two ways spring to mind for the quick, both a little ugly.  sudo reboot, or kill the X server
[20:16] <kyle__> Hum.  You know, 5 heads does look pretty good on ubuntu.
[20:17] <semitones> kyle__: in the old days you could do "service gdm restart" -- but it doesn't work anymore.
[20:17] <arielsanflo> el canal de ubuntu 12.10
[20:17] <kyle__> semitones: Oooh, lightdm
[20:17] <kyle__> semitones: service lightdm restart
[20:17] <arielsanflo> what is canal  ubunu 12.10
[20:17] <kyle__> I beleive that's what ubuntu's current xdm replacement is.
[20:17]  * kyle__ kindof misses good ole XDM
[20:17] <guntbert> arielsanflo: #ubuntu+1
[20:18] <semitones> kyle__ awesome i'll try
[20:18] <kyle__> semitones: I've also found that if it's a graphics card/driver problem, sometimes you can VNC in, and it works.  But that's rare.

[20:24] <captainfurious> but it doesn;t appear to have anything on my system
[20:25] <captainfurious> sirex: what is is that starts ssh-agent and other widgets on the desktop
[20:25] <zorgborg> is it worth investigating a rkhunter notice on /usr/sbin/cron + sudo  properties changing (says current and stored hash is different)?
[20:26] <sirex> captainfurious: gnome-session-properties shows not all apps, if you want to see all apps, better use gnome-system-monitor.
[20:26] <sirex> All revices are listed in /etc/init.d/ folder.
[20:26] <trism> JonMarkGo: it is in that package, so either something messed up with your PATH or the installed package (in which case maybe: sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-software-properties;)

[20:33] <kristenbb> I have a hp laptop. It has a network switch that allows to disable wireless networking. It is blue when working, orange when not working. At least, that's what it was with 10.04. Now it is blue when working, but flashes with blue/orange when there is some sort of networking activity. I would like to go back to the time when it just stayed blue if on, rather than showing network activity. How to do that ?
[20:33] <talsamon> JonMarkGo,  works this simply sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

[20:36] <rocky_> Do you think it is good idea?
[20:36] <wago> trying to install the official nvidia beta drivers  on 12.04, how do you interrupt the ubuntu startup so X doesnt load?
[20:37] <OerHeks> !poll | rocky_
[20:37] <rocky_> ubottu, thanks
[20:38] <mydogsnameisrudy> rocky_:  you have problem with ubuntu?
[20:38] <rocky_> i have a problem in Ubuntu 12.04 where the laptop doesnt wakes after it goes into suspend mode
[20:39] <rocky_> mydogsnameisrudy, if i wake it in 5 mints, it works
[20:39] <mydogsnameisrudy> well turn off suspend mode and dont use it ;)
[20:39] <rocky_> mydogsnameisrudy, if i take long time to wake up, then it won't wake up from suspend mode
[20:40] <rocky_> mydogsnameisrudy, wells i have habit not to turn off laptop so just use suspend mode to save engergy
[20:40] <hanning> is someone available with extraordinary GRUB-skills and willing to help me? :)
[20:40] <B0g4r7> Hi guys, I have an odd question: Is there a command I can issue to cause the machine to reboot immediately without going through the normal shutdown sequence, as if the front panel reset button had been pushed?
[20:40] <B0g4r7> (or poweroff)
[20:41] <rocky_> B0g4r7, use poweroff button
[20:41] <kristenbb> can someone help me with my light issue please ?
[20:41] <B0g4r7> Awesome, that worked perfectly.  Thanks.
[20:41] <rocky_> kristenbb, whats issue?
[20:41] <kristenbb> I have a hp laptop. It has a network switch that allows to disable wireless networking. It is blue when working, orange when not working. At least, that's what it was with 10.04. Now it is blue when working, but flashes with blue/orange when there is some sort of networking activity. I would like to go back to the time when it just stayed blue if on, rather than showing network activity. How to do that ?
[20:41] <kristenbb> rocky_: ^
[20:43] <JonMarkGo> trism: Thanks for the help, guess their VM image was wrong
[20:45] <VanKush> hello ladies and gentlemen
[20:46] <VanKush> please, how do I find out which video driver is being used? ubuntu precise 64bit, Lenovo Ideapad S205 minibook
[20:47] <MasterOfDisaster> VanKush: see /var/log/Xorg.*.log or glxinfo
[20:47] <kristenbb> rocky_: so any idea how to solve my problem?
[20:47] <AcidRain2012> what is ubuntu terminal command to connect to eth0?
[20:49] <thevoid> anyone have issues with wlan interface staying connected for a period greater than 24hours on 12.04?
[20:49] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain2012  try ifconfig eth0 and the IP addresses of your machine and router
[20:49] <AcidRain2012> thevoid: lol. i have that problem now
[20:49] <thevoid> does it say its still connected?
[20:50] <AcidRain2012> except im on 10.04. and the option "automatically connect" for a lan, it does... but it will only try for maybe 5 times. i want it to keep trying until my shitty router picks up a connection again
[20:50] <AcidRain2012> thevoid: no. it doesnt say its connected. but i did have that problem on 9.04
[20:50] <AcidRain2012> MonkeyDust: i dont see how that will make my lan connect?
[20:51] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain2012  moment
[20:52] <thevoid> mine shows it connected, but it isnt, a reconnect fixes it,  but doing it every 24hours is a bit annoying
[20:52] <thevoid> and i can lock down when it happens each day
[20:52] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain2012  random example, from a tutorial, change the ip address to your needs         ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS> broadcast <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:53] <B0g4r7> Maybe you should fix your connectivity issue so the client doesn't have to try > 5 times.
[20:53] <semitones> can linux directories contain the apostrophe? '
[20:54] <AcidRain2012> MonkeyDust: perhaps my questions wasnt clear. when i have no internet connection. i want to connect to the internet on lan, interface eth0, with my already set configuration
[20:54] <Shinobi> how do i install gnome 3 in 12.04. I installed gnome-shell ,but it doesn't load despite the many webpages that say it does.
[20:54] <B0g4r7> Shinobi, you have to logout, and select gnome3 at the login screen from the popup menu.
[20:54] <AcidRain2012> ^true
[20:55] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain2012  by lan, you mean a cable?
[20:55] <AcidRain2012> MonkeyDust: yes, sry
[20:55] <kapz> why clipboard is so cruel in linux? I copy text from a program and if i close that program the content copied is lost, unlike in windows. Is there a way to overcome this limitation? I use gnome 3
[20:55] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain2012  my advice stands
[20:55] <Martin2012> Hi, why this open source game
[20:55] <Shinobi> B0g4r7: I did, but I get an error that says "Failed to load Gnome"
[20:55] <AcidRain2012> rrr
[20:55] <Martin2012> Hi, why this open source game: Enemy Territory is not in official repositories? It's open source
[20:55] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain2012  you know your router's ip address?
[20:55] <kristenbb> can someone help me with my light issue please ?
[20:56] <Martin2012> Full name: Wolfestein: Enemy Territory
[20:56] <Murd0ck> need question answered
[20:56] <MasterOfDisaster> semitones: ext* filesystem?
[20:56] <semitones> yeah
[20:56] <semitones> MasterOfDisaster: I'm trying to have r'lyeh
[20:56] <joel135> Murd0ck, what?
[20:56] <B0g4r7> Shinobi, hmm, yea I dunno, it just worked for me.
[20:56] <AcidRain2012> MonkeyDust: ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>          im going to disconnect from cable, and see if this reconnects me
[20:57] <MasterOfDisaster> semitones: '/' and null byte are prohibited. everything else is fine
[20:57] <MonkeyDust> Martin2012  correct, it is not in the repos, you'll have to get it elsewhere
[20:57] <Shinobi> B0g4r7: What ppa did you get it from?
[20:57] <MasterOfDisaster> semitones: mkdir -p -- /home/r'lyeh
[20:57] <guntbert> !info clipit | kapz
[20:57] <NastyNaz> I have ubuntu server installed and need to wget via vpn to mirror an intranet site. Is there any way to do this without routing ALL my internet traffic through the vpn (e.g. only get the wget command to run via the vpn)??
[20:57] <Martin2012> MonkeyDust I got it from playdeb, but my question why this very known game is not in official repositories
[20:57] <B0g4r7> Shinobi, none special that I know of.  Whatever's configured out of the box on a new install.
[20:57] <bekks> NastyNaz: No.
[20:57] <Murd0ck> does ubuntu limit RAM like windoz?
[20:58] <MasterOfDisaster> Murd0ck: "limit RAM"?
[20:58] <rocky_> Murd0ck, no
[20:58] <B0g4r7> Murd0ck, not really, no.
[20:58] <NastyNaz> bekks: is there any way to only get a certain user to use vpn? That way I could make a user for the wget command.
[20:58] <bekks> NastyNaz: No.
[20:58] <Murd0ck> so my 32 bit system with ubuntu will use all 4gb of ram?
[20:58] <B0g4r7> Murd0ck, If you enable PAE you can use >4GB on a 32-bit system, yes.
[20:59] <MonkeyDust> Martin2012  maybe it will be with the next ubuntu release
[20:59] <Murd0ck> enable PAE?
[20:59] <centrelink> doesn't pae come enabled on ubuntu by default now?
[20:59] <Martin2012> MonkeyDust ok, thank you :-)
[20:59] <B0g4r7> Yes, Physical Address Extensions.  You need to have it enabled in the kernel to use lots of RAM on 32-bit systems.
[20:59] <B0g4r7> It may well be enabled by default, I'm not sure.
[20:59] <Murd0ck> is that hard to do?
[20:59] <MasterOfDisaster> centrelink: in the next release
[21:00] <centrelink> MasterOfDisaster: I was just guessing because when I was on 12.04 my kernel was like 3.2.something-generic-pae
[21:00] <kapz> well thanks guntbert...but still i miss a tiny default action...
[21:00] <Murd0ck> this is BS,... Windows says 4GB ram installed 2.87GB usable
[21:00] <MasterOfDisaster> Murd0ck: why not go with 64 bits?
[21:00] <Murd0ck> no 64bit CPU
[21:00] <B0g4r7> Murd0ck, I'd imagine it would pretty easy to find and install a PAE kernel, if the default one is not already PAE-enables.
[21:00] <AcidRain> no it didnt work
[21:00] <B0g4r7> Yeah well, that's Windows...
[21:00] <centrelink> Hell, I only have 2gb of ram and the only reason I'm not on 64 bit is because I didn't feel like redownloading the image
[21:01] <AcidRain> MonkeyDust: ifconfig eth0 down / up seems to work
[21:01] <AcidRain> but im not sure if it will accomplish what im trying to do
[21:01] <AcidRain> and yes, i do know my routers ip
[21:01] <Murd0ck> this ia AMD sempron SI-42 Processor
[21:01] <Murd0ck> 2.1 Ghz
[21:01] <Murd0ck> single core
[21:02] <MasterOfDisaster> centrelink: in quantal, the default kernel will have PAE support AFAIK
[21:02] <Murd0ck> that's my lappy,.. not mu man
[21:02] <Murd0ck> main*
[21:02] <MasterOfDisaster> centrelink: at the moment, *-pae isn't the default kernel.
[21:03] <troulouliou_dev> hi i need to use a private dns server that is not accessible from a host due to a vpn-router configuration , however i can access a host on the remote site that can access the dns server
[21:03] <troulouliou_dev> what package should i use on the remote host to forward dnsqueries ?
[21:03] <troulouliou_dev> dnsmasq ?
[21:03] <Murd0ck> I'm so sick of getting locked processors
[21:03] <Platypus-Man2k> trying to install Ubuntu desktop edition x64 on a new PC, but after filling in all the stuff in the "who are you?"-page of the setup, it won't let me progress to the next step, even after letting it copy all the files over etc, it still won't let me get past it... going backwards and forwards to the "who are you?"-step again didn't help... any ideas?
[21:03] <Murd0ck> I want my over clock!
[21:04] <Murd0ck> Platypus you got a bunk copy
[21:04] <guntbert> !ot | Murd0ck
[21:04] <Murd0ck> redownload
[21:04] <Murd0ck> !ot | yourmom
[21:05] <guntbert> Platypus-Man2k: did you check if the iso file was ok before burning it?
[21:05] <Platypus-Man2k> Murd0ck, bah... why didn't I think of that... I will try to re-download (with torrents this time, that should make sure md5sum is okay) thanks for the tip
[21:05] <Murd0ck> i'd bet that you got a corrupt file in that copy of ubuntu
[21:06] <Murd0ck> I mean, something could have happend during the file transfere
[21:06] <AcidRain> omg
[21:06] <AcidRain> how do i automatically accept yes in terminal?
[21:06] <B0g4r7> for ssh?
[21:06] <Murd0ck> Acid rain
[21:06] <Murd0ck> you installign something?
[21:07] <VanKush> MasterOfDisaster: thank you :)
[21:07] <Shinobi> got it.. Gnome 3 depends on gnome-fallback, which i had removed. oops
[21:07] <semitones> MasterOfDisaster: ok now how do I make cthulhu an administrator? add him to the admin group?
[21:07] <Murd0ck> AcidRain, if your installing something in terminal for example
[21:07] <Murd0ck> "make && make install
[21:07] <VanKush> can anybody advice me on how to check whether the cooling fan is working, too?
[21:07] <Murd0ck> no "
[21:07] <AcidRain> well. what im trying to do is enter my password for sudo
[21:07] <AcidRain> cause the commands i am running in bash requires it
[21:08] <Murd0ck> ah well,.. you could run as superuser
[21:08] <daedaluz> I have troubles integrating GNOME3 with Tracker. it doesn't search files or folders in launch view but tracker-needle works fine. am I missing something?
[21:08] <Murd0ck> but that be uber stupid
[21:08] <MasterOfDisaster> semitones: add him to the sudo group
[21:08] <B0g4r7> I suppose you can use sudo in interactive mode...
[21:08] <guntbert> AcidRain: not possible with sudo
[21:08] <B0g4r7> Which is generally not recommended.
[21:08] <Murd0ck> remember why XP got so many viruses?
[21:08] <AcidRain> well true true
[21:08] <Murd0ck> that's cause it was running in SU by default
[21:08] <Murd0ck> lol
[21:08] <daedaluz> Murd0ck: because most people are computer illiterate
[21:08] <elite|> Anyone from  Australia, New Zealand, India, Japan, South East Asia online? :)
[21:08] <semitones> MasterOfDisaster: adduser cthulhu sudo?
[21:09] <AcidRain> how can i write a bash script then to automatically ifconfig eth0 down /up?
[21:09] <Murd0ck> deadaluz, yeap that too,.. and lots of porn, hahaha
[21:09] <AcidRain> which seems for now, to fix my disconnection problem
[21:09] <VanKush> pleez, how does default ubuntu configuration tackle with laptop fan?
[21:09] <MasterOfDisaster> semitones: gpasswd -a cthulhu sudo
[21:09] <zykotick9> AcidRain: write the script - then run the script with sudo
[21:09] <AcidRain> zykotick9: this script will be in a cron job
[21:10] <AcidRain> i run servers, and i dont need them going down randomly every 48ish hrs
[21:10] <AcidRain> i want them to be down maximum of 1 minute, then back up
[21:10] <zykotick9> AcidRain: seems like a bad idea to me (as your doing something, network suddenly goes down)
[21:10] <AcidRain> zykotick9: its a bad router. i promise, lol
[21:11] <MasterOfDisaster> AcidRain: I'd fix the underlying issue. Working around it like you suggested could render your host completely unreachable.
[21:13] <AcidRain> MasterOfDisaster: well its not like im going to nuke my router. i just want it to attempt to connect when ubuntu fails to automatically reconnect
[21:13] <B0g4r7> dd-wrt it, if you can.
[21:14] <MasterOfDisaster> AcidRain: well, investigate that issue - it shouldn't fail, right? There must be a reason for that.
[21:14] <blahdeblah> Hi.  I told my oneiric box to look for a release upgrade.  It hit http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts and told me there was no new release.  Any idea why precise is not listed in that file?
[21:15] <AcidRain> MasterOfDisaster: im teling u dude. its the router, about 1 time in ever 4 weeks i have to manually reset the router because it locke dup
[21:15] <AcidRain> its not my ubuntu box
[21:15] <AcidRain> if u will just tell me how to make ubuntu try more than hell... 5 times to reconnect, that would be great
[21:15] <myk_robinson> this may blur the line of ethics, but how can I record whatever is playing out my main speakers in Ubuntu? I'd like to attempt to rip a few tracks off Spotify
[21:15] <AcidRain> i want it to keep trying until it does, instead of giving up
[21:16] <MasterOfDisaster> AcidRain: as others suggested, fix your router then or use the cron workaround and live with the consequences. You have been warned thoroughly.
[21:17] <r0tha> myk_robinson: it's cool that you want to try something like that, for all we know you own those tracks / have purchased them
[21:17] <r0tha> but don't ask us to do your work in that respect......RTFM for the channel
[21:17] <AcidRain> MasterOfDisaster: i cant fix the router. only thing to do is buy another 1
[21:17] <myk_robinson> r0tha: honestly, its for something I used to own but was stolen out of a car back when ral cd's were big
[21:17] <AcidRain> and i just happen to be broke
[21:17] <r0tha> myk_robinson: look just don't phrase it like that on here
[21:17] <heligoland> hi guys. my pc froze, i rebooted, logged in and a second later got to an error screen, then it came back to the UI session. any idea how I can find that log?
[21:18] <r0tha> myk_robinson:  a la: hey has anyone tried this or can someone point me in the right direction just a heads up
[21:18] <myk_robinson> r0tha: no problem, I understood what i would be getting into before asking. I'll check Amazon or Google music and see if I can find it
[21:19] <bilbonvidia> Fastyr mie
[21:19] <MasterOfDisaster> AcidRain: query?
[21:19] <semitones> does every ubuntu user also have a group with the same name?
[21:20] <semitones> like, can I "chown -R user:user /home/user" ?
[21:20] <heligoland> hello?
[21:21] <guntbert> semitones: by default, yes
[21:22] <erk> sup
[21:22] <erk> is it easy to get xdebug set up in ubuntu server?
[21:23] <erk> !support
[21:23] <erk> !help
[21:23] <AcidRain> so what your telling me is that there is no way i can fix this but the recommendations?
[21:24] <AcidRain> cause i kinda refuse to buy a new router. lol
[21:24] <idx0> is there a channel for bugs solution?
[21:24] <scottj> in 12.04, is there a way to have all apps use gtk2 theme not gtk3? or is that the way the apps are compiled and there's no way around it? the thing is I have a gtk2 theme I really like...
[21:24] <zh> idx0, you may want to try #ubuntu-bugs
[21:25] <bilbonvidia> I replaced an intel with a Alpine 11 rev.2 as the intel had started to whine. I had been controlling the speed with fancontrol pwmconfig, now however the new fan is on full speed. sensors picks up the fan speed as does pwmconfig when I try to re-run but it doesn't stop the fan as it should, it says no it says it is not pwn even though it is. Any idea how to get it working with the new fan??
[21:25] <bilbonvidia> INtel cpu cooler
[21:25] <guntbert> AcidRain: lets put it this way: when your car has broken brakes you *can* opt to only drive very slowly, but is that really an option?
[21:26] <AcidRain> guntbert: well... i live life on the edge. my car doesnt have breaks but only on 1 tire because the automatic break adjuster is broken. lmao
[21:27] <CIDR> I just installed 12.04 and then Chrome.  If I try to open pandora or any other flash site it's basically unusable.  Any ideas?
[21:27] <studentsz> Hey guys where can I go to talk in an ubuntu room that is not support?
[21:28] <extor> If someone has smb running and smb is used as a file store, what is the default folder where the smb fileshare resides in ubuntu?
[21:28] <MasterOfDisaster> studentsz: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:29] <hanning> how do i remove and MBR?
[21:30] <hanning> *an
[21:30] <zth> how do i know if i'm using the Gallium3D Radeon driver?
[21:30] <MasterOfDisaster> hanning: warning - trashes the partition table as well: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/target bs=512 count=1
[21:31] <hanning> thanks
[21:31] <wangerin> Hi guys. I'm I the only one getting errors (bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.) on apt-get update? Have tried the dk, ed and us-mirrors :-(
[21:32] <MasterOfDisaster> wangerin: any iptables rules? SPI firewall or transparent proxy on your net?
[21:33] <troulouliou_dev> hanning,  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/target bs=446 count=1
[21:33] <troulouliou_dev> this wil smash the mbr only
[21:33] <troulouliou_dev> leaving the partition table and magic bytes
[21:33] <bluebomber> In 12.04, when I click my user name and then select another logged in user, it shows that user's "locked screen" screen, including the user's wallpaper. How can I make it so the wallpaper isn't shown?
[21:33] <MasterOfDisaster> troulouliou_dev: thanks :)
[21:34] <wangerin> MasterOfDisaster: Not that I know of. And security.ubuntu.com works.  My personal repos alos works.
[21:34] <troulouliou_dev> MasterOfDisaster, always need to scrool the doc for the exact amount of bytes :)
[21:34] <hanning> bootinfo script is still telling me theres an MBR on sda1
[21:34] <DanMD> Hi there everyone! Quick question, is there any documentation out there for all the keys for gsettings? I can't seem to find anything out there...
[21:34] <CIDR> just installed ubuntu 12.04, and grabbed chrome, any ideas why flash pages like pandora or youtube would be basically unusable and lag the hell out of everything
[21:34] <DanMD> I keep getting docs pertaining to gsettings, and not the actual schemas and keys in use by ubuntu
[21:35] <MonkeyDust> CIDR  start from the beginning, what happened before you came here
[21:35] <carl0s-> Is flash broken in some recent updates? Youtube is playing at half speed in firefox, and double speed in chrome, and I lost sound altogether a minute ago and had to reboot.
[21:35] <CIDR> I installed 12.04, cleanly.  Downloaded and installed chrome.
[21:35] <carl0s-> (12.04)
[21:36] <CIDR> Now pandora is slow and lags my entire system if i open it in chrome, and youtube is about useless as it plays funky speeds
[21:36] <bluebomber> CIDR, (you can, and should, use the HTML5 version of YouTube. Solves the problem with that one site. ;-)
[21:36] <CIDR> bluebomber:  but not why flash doesn't work
[21:36] <MonkeyDust> bluebomber  youtube.com/html5
[21:37] <bluebomber> Thanks, MonkeyDust.
[21:37] <carl0s-> CIDR: you have the same problem as me?? youtube just broke!! in firefox it's half speed.. sound all broken, in chrome it's double/tripple speed!
[21:37] <CIDR> carl0s-:  haven't even tried in firefox
[21:37] <CIDR> but I assume
[21:37] <bluebomber> CIDR: Well, why Flash "doesn't work" is a whole 'nother discussion, I'm afraid. ;-)
[21:37] <carl0s-> oh.
[21:38] <bluebomber> BTW, for me some flash videos have their colors distorted ever since a recent update. I don't know why.
[21:38] <carl0s-> well it was fine recently. It has to be a recent update.
[21:38] <carl0s-> lame.
[21:38] <bluebomber> No playback speed issues, though.
[21:38] <CIDR> I can't try in FF, as I don't have the flash plugin installed.
[21:38] <carl0s-> I'm not even on +1. This is 12.04 :-(
[21:38] <CIDR> Since I didn't want to do anything to screw up chrome and it's built in plugin
[21:38] <MonkeyDust> CIDR  sudo apt-get update flashplugin-installer
[21:38] <bilbonvidia> are there any ways to manually control cpu fan speed?
[21:38] <bluebomber> In 12.04, when I click my user name and then select another logged in user, it shows that user's "locked screen" screen, including the user's wallpaper. How can I make it so the wallpaper isn't shown?
[21:39] <carl0s-> the HTML5 youtube appears to be OK though so I guess that'll do for now.
[21:39] <CIDR> Yeah, I can install the plugin...
[21:39] <glitsj16> bluebomber: you might have hit a known flash bug that is fixable .. http://askubuntu.com/questions/117127/flash-video-appears-blue/131040#131040

[21:41] <IveBeenBit> Hi guys - I am a newb trying to get bootrepair to work an ONLY install GRUB onto the USB stick where I have Ubuntu installed. I do NOT want grub anywhere near my hard drives since it already caused me a ton of windows booting problems. How can I figure out which is my USB drive? The options it gives me are sda, sdb, sdc etc., up to sdf but I don't know which of those is my USB drive
[21:42] <bluebomber> Thanks, glitsj16
[21:42] <bluebomber> I'm glad I can fix it, but it doesn't really bug me that much because I actively avoid Flash-shackled sites.
[21:43] <d1gital_> "'SWIG_exception' was not declared in this scope"  Am I missing a package?
[21:43] <semitones> IveBeenBit: you can use gparted to look at each device and try and guess which is which based on partitions. you can also sudo fdisk -l to look at the partitions
[21:43] <glitsj16> bluebomber: you're welcome .. and that's indeed the best way, same here
[21:43] <IveBeenBit> semitones - I will try that. thank you
[21:43] <sahofiria> Bonjour les Linuxiens,je suis un nouveau et j'ai un petit soucis (Ho non encore un boulet qui a pas lu le manuel !^) J'ai installé Ubuntu depuis une clef usb et l'espace disque commence à manquer,j'aimerai savoir si je pouvais utiliser d'une quelcquonque manière le disque dur de mon PC ou si je devais me résigner à réinstaller avec un cd (Sorry for french)
[21:44] <carl0s-> this sucks
[21:44] <d1gital_> !fr | sahofiria
[21:44] <carl0s-> "Videos with ads are not supported (they will play in the Flash player)"
[21:44] <carl0s-> my PC at the office has its num-lock key blinking like mad and gnome-settings-daemon at 90% CPU usage, and my laptop at home won't even do frickin' youtube. WTG Ubuntu.
[21:45] <Espens1> are there any plans of making ubuntu's software repository open for "closed-software"? ie. Skype? (the version available is buggy, and a beta. although on the website theres a fully functional version)
[21:46] <xangua> Espens1: the version aviable in the partner repository and in skype.com are the same
[21:46] <Espens1> it can't be, because i downloaded a beta from the repository
[21:46] <Espens1> the one from skype.com is a lot newer.
[21:46] <xangua> Espens1: yes, skype for linux Is beta
[21:47] <Espens1> hold on xangua
[21:47] <Espens1> the version from repository is 2.2ish, beta
[21:47] <Espens1> skype.com delivers skype-ubuntu_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_amd64 to ubuntu x64.
[21:47] <xangua> Espens1: what ubuntu version are you using¿
[21:47] <Espens1> 12.04 LTS
[21:47] <xangua> partner repo already has skype 4
[21:47] <xangua> Espens1: then please run the update manager
[21:48] <Espens1> alright
[21:48] <bluebomber> carl0s-, I've had worse problems with Windows on systems I've built. Don't rush to blame Ubuntu. ;-)
[21:49] <KRistos> Hello, I just installed ubuntu and have a question on the install process and partition management
[21:50] <Espens1> while im still connected, is TRIM supported by default in ubuntu?
[21:50] <Espens1> or do i have to manually activate it
[21:51] <VanKush> please, where can I configure X11 session profiles?
[21:51] <VanKush> I got a few invalid included in kdm after installing lubuntu-desktop package
[21:52] <craigbass1976> is there something wrong with the ubuntu pip package?  I can't uninstall stuff with pip uninstall pythonpackagename and several sites on the web suggest uninstalling python packages with pip uninstall...
[21:52] <carl0s-> bluebomber, it just seems to be very frequent that updates are breaking things, and things are not being fixed. I also have a problem where 1 in 8 ish times, my laptop coming out of suspend, just gives the mouse cursor on a black screen. The unlock screen doesn't appear. I have to kill X - I lose everything. No body will respond to the bug. I would switch to Fedora, but Gnome 3 doesn't even let you configure the ethernet connection when t
[21:52] <carl0s-> here's no cable plugged into it (settings are greyed out).. I didn't give it any more time than that.
[21:53] <xangua> craigbass1976: there is no such thing as 'pip uninstall'
[21:53] <craigbass1976> xangua, I'm finding that.  How does one uninstall a package that pip installed?
[21:53] <Sander^home> How can I see a pice of Samba shared content on the network?
[21:54] <xangua> craigbass1976: there is no such thing as 'pip' either
[21:54] <xangua> !apt | craigbass1976
[21:54] <craigbass1976> xangua, python-pip  is a python package installer

[21:58] <dhalbakken1> Hey, guys. Sorry, I'm fairly new to Ubuntu.
[21:58] <dhalbakken1> I'm attempting to access my files on my ubuntu computer from a windows 7 machine, but the ubuntu computer doesn't show up in the network. Currently running Ubuntu 12.04. Anyone know a work-around?
[21:58] <glitsj16> VanKush: /usr/share/xsessions probably
[21:59] <craigbass1976> dhalbakken1, what's your samba conf file look like?
[22:00] <craigbass1976> dhalbakken1, don't paste in here -- use a pastbin
[22:00] <craigbass1976> glebihan, do you know anything about pip?  Like if whoever packaged it for Ubuntu forgot to include the uninstall portion of the show?
[22:02] <hetii> hi :)
[22:03] <KRistos> so i just installed ubuntu 12.04 lts on an old windows machine, via the windows installer, and the install process didn't take me through a partition management phase. Do I just use disk utility to deal the remaining windows partitions?
[22:04] <kkerwin> Hi. I have a process that I am unable to kill with "kill -9 $PROCESSID", or "killall $PROCCESSNAME". Any ideas? The process is libreoffice.
[22:05] <kkerwin> KRistos: I believe that the Windows installer doesn't deal with partitions at all. I believe that it just installs Ubuntu inside of a virtual machine so that Ubuntu runs on windows just like any other program.
[22:05] <kkerwin> KRistos: In short, the way you did it, no need to mess around with partitions.
[22:07] <KRistos> kkerwin, thanks for the help on that. My issue is that I was actually trying to reformat the previous partitions and install ubuntu on top of them. I used the windows installed because the cd drive doesn't work on this machine
[22:07] <kkerwin> KRistos: Hrm. That makes things difficult.
[22:08] <bilbonvidia> #chip drivers
[22:08] <thevoid> use a usb stick if available
[22:08] <kkerwin> KRistos: My advice. Go to Best Buy/wherever. Purchase a USB disc drive. Delete all partitions. Install Ubuntu. Install Windows. Return USB disc drive to store (if you decide not to keep it)
[22:09] <rypervenche> kkerwin: What does "ps faux | grep -i libre" say?
[22:10] <kkerwin> rypervenche: http://pastebin.com/VSf8vDeB
[22:11] <KRistos> kkerwin, thanks! I'll do that.
[22:12] <rypervenche> kkerwin: And you've tried "kill -9 2682 2702" ?
[22:12] <kkerwin> rypervenche: Just the 2702. I'll try the other.
[22:12] <glebihan> craigbass1976, no sorry, don't know anything about it. What you suggested sounds *very* unlikely though
[22:12] <veryhappy> hi guys i need help with rsync
[22:13] <kkerwin> rypervenche: 2702 still won't die.
[22:13] <kkerwin> rypervenche: But 2682 did.
[22:13] <veryhappy> can i only sync with rsync or can i also take it for copying? i wanna copy the files from one system to a backup drive
[22:13] <craigbass1976> glebihan, pip has a chat...  Weird.  Someone in there says that the pip package in Lucid is wicked old, and has no uninstall.
[22:13] <SeH> hi; I add a layout to keyboard
[22:13] <SeH> but i cant change it
[22:14] <SeH> what this the solutions§
[22:14] <rypervenche> kkerwin: I recommend logging out then and then try killing it or slaying the user after that.
[22:14] <veryhappy> SeH: perhaps you use it right now and thus you can't remove it at this time
[22:14] <kkerwin> rypervenche: How does one slay the user? I know how to kill a process, but not that.
[22:15] <SeH> veryhappy: how!
[22:16] <rypervenche> kkerwin: Install slay
[22:16] <veryhappy> SeH: sentences with exclamation marks seem mostly very rude. please avoid that in the future.
[22:17] <veryhappy> SeH: what have you done in your system?
[22:17] <hetii> .
[22:17] <veryhappy> SeH: i mean how did you add the layout
[22:18] <kkerwin> rypervenche: That has to be the funniest manpage that I've ever read.
[22:20] <rypervenche> ^^
[22:22] <SeH> veryhappy: from keyboard sttings than it show an icon in toolbar to change it
[22:26] <anomaly> 1590 people and no one speaking..
[22:28] <DanielHoffman> is there a way to pipe all data EXCEPT for the matching word in grep
[22:29] <MonkeyDust> DanielHoffman  try !
[22:29] <DanielHoffman> I dont get it
[22:29] <DanielHoffman> grep "!word"?
[22:29] <trism> DanielHoffman: grep -v
[22:29] <MonkeyDust> DanielHoffman  the exclamation mark means NOT
[22:29] <trism> DanielHoffman: although that will be matching lines, not just the matching words
[22:30] <DanielHoffman> or grep !"word"?
[22:31] <trism> DanielHoffman: grep -v word file
[22:31] <Espens1> whoever told me ubuntu software respoistory has the latest skype is not telling the truth...
[22:31] <MonkeyDust> DanielHoffman  trism is more accurate
[22:34] <deepspeed> anyone know of a program that can find the correct names for songs that have the wrong tags?
[22:34] <DanielHoffman> i eill try that
[22:35] <Espens1> can anyone please tell me why there is a old version of skype (really.. really old) on the software repository, and not the newest one?
[22:35] <Espens1> http://i.imgur.com/Y5hIw.png
[22:35] <DanielHoffman> i need this to work with stdin
[22:36] <exutux> sorry guys wich is syntax for at command to a poweroff at some hour? at poweroff -t ....?
[22:36] <DanielHoffman> sudo shoutdown time
[22:36] <DanielHoffman> sudo shutdown time
[22:36] <nkei0> BarkingFish, thx for the help last night.  I finally got my wireless to work.  I had to end up using the b43 (broadcom) drivers
[22:36] <DanielHoffman> time is in seconds
[22:37] <exutux> DanielHoffman: well I will try shutdown..but I mean which is time format for at? I cannot understand at command -t H:M:S ?
[22:37] <DanielHoffman> it doenst work, i need tit to purge 1 word from a line and not the whole line
[22:37] <DanielHoffman> it is in seconds
[22:37] <trism> DanielHoffman: then use sed, not grep
[22:38] <DanielHoffman> how would i use sed for that?
[22:38] <exutux> DanielHoffman: at command -t 3600  say invalid time format
[22:39] <trism> DanielHoffman: sed 's/word//'
[22:39] <DanielHoffman> no, an example is sudo shutdown 30
[22:39] <DanielHoffman> thanks
[22:39] <TheVoid-> err
[22:40] <TheVoid-> opengl is suddenly not working AT ALL after a reboot when this netbook crashed (using ubuntu 10.04)
[22:40] <TheVoid-> no java, special desktop effects, games
[22:40] <TheVoid-> halp
[22:40] <TheVoid-> it was working before
[22:41] <TheVoid-> the only thing that possibly could have caused it is python-opencl package or something, but that shouldn;t have done crap
[22:41] <n_np> hmmm
[22:41] <n_np> let me try
[22:41] <n_np> sooo
[22:41] <n_np> what crashed it?
[22:41] <n_np> what were you busy doing?
[22:41] <TheVoid-> opening a java game
[22:41] <TheVoid-> which totally filled everything
[22:41] <n_np> ok
[22:41] <TheVoid-> cpu and mem
[22:41] <n_np> so
[22:41] <TheVoid-> (not even opengl game)
[22:41] <n_np> we can establish it has something to do with the fact that it didnt work in the first place, correct?
[22:41] <n_np> ok
[22:41] <n_np> we cant
[22:42] <n_np> ok
[22:42] <TheVoid-> all my stuff was working before the crash
[22:42] <n_np> so tell me
[22:42] <n_np> what happens when you open anything in java atm?
[22:42] <TheVoid-> works fine
[22:42] <TheVoid-> just nothing that is opengl
[22:42] <TheVoid-> same with everything else
[22:42] <n_np> ok
[22:42] <n_np> so its def opengl
[22:42] <TheVoid-> indeed
[22:42] <n_np> has opengl worked before?
[22:42] <TheVoid-> yes
[22:42] <TheVoid-> perfectly fine
[22:42] <n_np> ok
[22:43] <n_np> what type of crash do you experience?
[22:43] <agentgasmask> Hi all. Just messing arround with LVM. apt-cache says lvm2 "breaks" grub-common. Does that mean if I install it, I will kill my bootloader?
[22:43] <TheVoid-> total freeze of mouse, can't move anything, can't type or alt+f4
[22:43] <n_np> ok
[22:43] <n_np> that's system level
[22:43] <n_np> and does the system still seem to be functioning? lets just make sure
[22:44] <TheVoid-> everything seems to be working fine
[22:44] <n_np> hmmm
[22:44] <n_np> that is fcking weird
[22:44] <TheVoid-> my desktop effects settings switched back to 'none'
[22:44] <TheVoid-> indeed
[22:44] <VanKush> please folks, what is the config file that stores X session profiles passed on to KDM and/or GDM?
[22:44] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  you mean .dmrc ?
[22:44] <n_np> vankush perhaps xorg.conf
[22:45] <n_np> ok sorry
[22:45] <Dr_willis> Most login managers read/write to the users .dmrc file to save the lase selected session
[22:45] <n_np> thevoid made any recent driver updates?
[22:45] <TheVoid-> i could send logs of various things that use opengl
[22:45] <TheVoid-> nope no driver updates recently
[22:45] <TheVoid-> have never done it before on ubuntu
[22:45] <TheVoid-> never needed to
[22:45] <n_np> well im not really an ubuntu user im hear to test something you wont believe
[22:45] <n_np> ok
[22:45] <n_np> first of all
[22:46] <n_np> try to update your drivers
[22:46] <n_np> thats what i'd do
[22:46] <n_np> then come back
[22:46] <FloodBot1> n_np: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:46] <n_np> and tell me if it works
[22:46] <TheVoid-> i don't even know what drivers i use
[22:46] <TheVoid-> it always worked without installing any
[22:46] <VanKush> Dr_willis: i am not knowledgeable in session managers. I was running KDM comfortably until I installed lubunu-desktop meta package. After that, some weird session profiles were introduced and "standard" default session was set to gnome-openbox, despite me not having gnome installed :(
[22:46] <n_np> oops
[22:47] <n_np> thevoid wish i could help you
[22:47] <n_np> but im jst trying here
[22:47] <nkei0> Problem:  I have Xubuntu 12.04 and for some reason the initial login splash defaults to GB-EN layout.  Question: How do I change it to default to US-EN that way I can use autologin? I've already looked at locale & setlocale manpages, but it doesn't make sense to me.
[22:47] <VanKush> Dr_willis: regardless on what session I select, after reboot gnome-openbox is standard again, and I hit an error for an invalid session profile unless I manually change to kde or lxde
[22:47] <TheVoid-> i know
[22:47] <nkei0> Currently, I can just click the dropdown and change it to US-EN, but I'd much rather just autologin.
[22:48] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  the default session is saved to .dmrc perhaps remove that file., or check its ownership
[22:48] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  i belive theres some system setting to select the default sesion for all users.. but ive never changed it. I recall the askubuntu.com site having info on how to change it.
[22:51] <VanKush> Dr_willis: it says [desktop] session=kde-plasma   ... it is what i need, but this conf gets obviousli overriden somehow
[22:51] <VanKush> Dr_willis: please, where are x session profiles stored?
[22:51] <BUSTACAP> How can I search through folder filled with text files for a certain string in one of the files?
[22:51] <nkei0> I have another question since that one didn't get any responses.  It seems every time I log in to get my wireless working I have to sudo modprobe b43 (the drivers).  How can I make this permanent?
[22:52] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  they are defined by various .desktop files  do a 'locate kde.desktop' or whatever session you like. as for what one is the DEFAULT. i dont recall where thats set at.. but ive seen the question asked at the askubuntu.com site on how to change the default session for all users.
[22:52] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  check the permissions of thjat .dmrc file. or try just remove/renameing it.. and let it get remade
[22:53] <tbrock> hey guys, having trouble getting video to work smoothly with my amd/ati card
[22:53] <tbrock> ubuntu 12.04
[22:54] <tbrock> if anyone could provide help it would be awesome
[22:54] <studio> is it possible usb flash drives to connect directly with the harddrive?
[22:55] <nkei0> studio, How do you mean?
[22:56] <studio> nkei0:for example if i have a file to a flash drive and i want to move it to my harddrive it must copy
[22:56] <kyle__> tbrock: Which program are you using for video?
[22:56] <glitsj16> BUSTACAP: a good text-editor would have that capacity .. have you tried with gedit (or gksu gedit if the folder/files doesn't belong to you) yet? there's a specific tool called searchmonkey that might be usefull as well
[22:56] <tbrock> kyle__: xorg?
[22:56] <studio> nkei0:i want to use the flash drive to access all the files directly from my computer
[22:56] <herpladee> hey guys
[22:56] <kyle__> tbrock: Which program are you using to play the video I mean
[22:56] <studio> as a second harddrive
[22:57] <studio> for example
[22:57] <herpladee> is there any way to restart gnome and compiz without restarting my computer?
[22:57] <herpladee> and maybe X or whatever it's called
[22:57] <kyle__> the built in player (totem I think), mplayer, vlc?
[22:57] <tbrock> just running xorg is slow as hell
[22:57] <tbrock> the animations a very very slow
[22:57] <bekks> herpladee: Just log out, and log in again.
[22:57] <tbrock> and this is a very fast box
[22:57] <arooni-mobile> is there anyway to figure out each process, what its overall contribution to system load is?  i for isntance have 8gb of ram and rarely is more than 3 or 4GB utilized, in addition, nothing looks like its maxing out the cpu
[22:57] <kyle__> tbrock: what's top tell you?
[22:57] <tbrock> tells me compiz eating cpu
[22:57] <Dr_willis> herpladee,  You can quit X abnd log back in - that restarts X :)
[22:57] <tbrock> im not using any restricted drivers atm
[22:58] <tbrock> installing them fails or makes it even slower
[22:58] <tbrock> like unbearably slow
[22:58] <VanKush> Dr_willis: it seems the lubuntu install has created some broke openbox-something.desktop files in /usr/share/xsessions;   do you think it is sane to move those and try?
[22:58] <nkei0> studio, I'm tired and that didn't make any sense.  You want to copy a file from the flash drive > hard drive.  That's about as far as I got.
[22:59] <kyle__> tbrock: Try logging out and choosing a gnome session instead of unity.  That may help.  Also there may be a way to disable compiz (which I lothe, for just the reasons you're experincing now)
[22:59] <romy420> arooni-mobile: type 'top' in a terminal, 'powertop' may also be useful
[22:59] <Dr_willis>  VanKush  you insalled lubuntu-desktop ? or what ecxactly?
[22:59] <tbrock> kyle__: its not because of that, its just because my video card is not configured properly
[22:59] <VanKush> Dr_willis: indeed
[22:59] <studio> nkei0:lets say that i have a 8gb file into a flash drive can i move to the harddrive without waiting?
[22:59] <tbrock> it may have something to do with it, but not fully
[22:59] <tbrock> not the root cause
[22:59] <tbrock> also, i have no gnome session
[23:00] <n_np> TheVoid- you still here?
[23:00] <studio> nkei0:i want to make the flash drive as a partition
[23:00] <TheVoid-> n_np: yep
[23:00] <Cooky^^> hi all
[23:00] <nkei0> studio, Oh, yes, I'm pretty sure you can do that using Gparted.
[23:00] <kyle__> tbrock: Eh, maybe.  Also, I thought gnome was always an option on the login screen.  Something like a dropdown towards the bottom.
[23:01] <kyle__> tbrock: Which video card?  I've got an intel onboard one, and while it's fine in games, it still chugs in compiz sometimes.
[23:01] <nkei0> studio, It comes standard on install media, have to download the package if you've already installed or just use the CD.  They try to make it difficult to trash your HD, since Gparted can wipe everything.
[23:02] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  possible fixs to it not rembering what you selected -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/62833/how-do-i-change-the-default-session-for-when-using-auto-logins
[23:02] <VanKush> Dr_willis: I'm negative on auto logins
[23:03] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  the fixs would still apply..........
[23:04] <studio> nkei0:can i unite  a flash usb drive and a harddrive to perform as one thing?
[23:05] <tbrock> kyle__: RV620 [FirePro 2260]
[23:05] <TheVoid-> :|
[23:06] <kyle__> tbrock: ati's driver or the open source ones?
[23:06] <Dr_willis> studio,  one thing? you mean have one file system that spans both devices?
[23:06] <MonkeyDust> studio  sounds like raid
[23:06] <kyle__> Dr_willis: Or LVM :)
[23:07] <studio> dr_willis:yes
[23:07] <Dr_willis> studio,  dare we ask why?
[23:07] <kyle__> Fsck.  Time.
[23:07] <MonkeyDust> studio  usb is slower than a regular harddrive, that would be tricky
[23:08] <studio> monkey...i didnt think about that :D
[23:08] <physically_fit> hey
[23:08] <nkei0> MonkeyDust, There is a group dedicated to raiding pen drives it seems, but it doesn't make sense as to why you would do it to me...
[23:08] <studio> lets say that i ll format my usb drive to ext4
[23:08] <studio> can i combine to my ext4 partition?
[23:09] <studio> that iam using for linux
[23:10] <tbrock> kyle__: the open source atm
[23:10] <tbrock> the restricted ones bring the system to a halt
[23:10] <tbrock> err so slow its unusable
[23:11] <n_np> TheVoid- do you have some sort of error log file?
[23:12] <TheVoid-> n_np: sure i can grab something which will give errors about opengl
[23:13] <TheVoid-> i'll give logs from different things
[23:16] <Dr_willis> studio,  why are you wanting to 'combine' the filesystems? You do realize you can just Mount the USB to any directory you want to.. and access it as if it was a normal directory?
[23:16] <VanKush> Dr_willis: I can't extrapolate to kdm though... in /etc/kde4/kdm/ there is nothing suspicious
[23:16] <e0ne199> hello
[23:16] <e0ne199> btw do you know how to make shell as startup session?
[23:16] <studio> Dr_willis:yeah but if i want to take the file it wants some time
[23:17] <Dr_willis> e0ne199,  clarify what you mean.
[23:17] <TheVoid-> nugh damn n_np quit
[23:17] <TheVoid-> :(
[23:17] <VanKush> brb reboot
[23:17] <e0ne199> btw do you know how to make shell as startup session?
[23:17] <Dr_willis> studio,  'take the file' ? reading a file will take time.. USB is much slower then a hard drive..
[23:17] <bekks> !patience | e0ne199
[23:17] <e0ne199> sorry
[23:18] <e0ne199> i mean starting the shell prompt first before entering gui session
[23:18] <studio> Dr_willis:cause if i want to install a program what should i do?
[23:18] <studio> Dr_willis:use the usb drive as a directory for this?
[23:18] <e0ne199> i want to start the gui session manually using command startx
[23:18] <bekks> e0ne199: Press ctrl+alt+f1
[23:18] <Dr_willis> studio,  Im not clear on why you are wanting to do all this..   You want to Install an APP to your usb flash.. install how exactly?
[23:19] <Dr_willis> studio,  what app?
[23:19] <studio> Dr_willis:anything
[23:19] <studio> Dr_willis:lets say photoshop
[23:19] <e0ne199> no, i mean starting the shell first after booting
[23:19] <Dr_willis> e0ne199, startx should start whatever sessionis defined in your .dmrc by default
[23:19] <nkei0> studio, We need to get some more clear understanding of what is actually going on and what you intend to do, and why...
[23:19] <e0ne199> btw where is .dmrc anyway?
[23:20] <nkei0> studio, For example, which distro have you installed, if you have done so?
[23:20] <Dr_willis> studentsz,  photoshop is a windows app.. If you are wanting to use wine to start it. You would put the photoshop exe on the flash and use 'wine /path/to/flash/whatever.exe'  normally
[23:20] <Dr_willis> studio,   photoshop is a windows app.. If you are wanting to use wine to start it. You would put the photoshop exe on the flash and use 'wine /path/to/flash/whatever.exe'  normally
[23:20] <tbrock> kyle__: any ideas?

[23:20] <Dr_willis> e0ne199,  in the users home dir.
[23:20] <studio> Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
[23:20] <studio> Description:	Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[23:20] <studio> Release:	12.04
[23:20] <studio> Codename:	precise
[23:20] <FloodBot1> studio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:21] <studio> Dr_willis:yeah thats right i could do that but what about the extraction folder?
[23:21] <prwino_sto_kreba> volos?????
[23:22] <Dr_willis> studio,  the usb gets mounted to a directory on the system like /media/USB-DISK  use it as you would any other folder.
[23:22] <Dr_willis> studio,  or extract/install it in your .wine directory by default and copy the install dir over to the usb perhaps. I dont use phtoshop.
[23:22] <nkei0> studio, If it's an .exe you have to open it with WINE.  It will make a "false" windows C: drive.  The latest and greatest photoshop doesn't work with Ubuntu.
[23:22] <e0ne199> ok thanks :)
[23:22] <theannouncer444> a
[23:25] <studio> Dr_willis:understood that but the move process takes time
[23:25] <nkei0> studio, What I mean by false C: drive is that the program thinks it's installing to a windows home directory, but in fact it's in a hidden directory in your home folder
[23:25] <studio> Dr_willis:i want to move files instantly from the 2 drivers
[23:25] <studio> drives*
[23:25] <VanKush> Dr_willis: moving openbox-gnome.desktop has removed it from KDM; there is however no gnome.desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions despite this is the broke default profile
[23:26] <studio> nkei0:yeah thanks
[23:26] <studio> nkei0:i want to move the files instantly from one drive to another
[23:27] <VanKush> Dr_willis: and ~/.dmrc has been restored, and still says session=kde-plasma, despite this being overriden
[23:27] <nkei0> studio, You can still copy/paste from the two.
[23:27] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  copy the seesion you want to gnome.desktop perhaps if you want a quick fix.
[23:28] <studio> nkei0:i know that but the process take time i dont want to wait nothing thats the problem
[23:28] <romy420> studio, u cant overcome hardware limits
[23:28] <nkei0> studio, How big are the files we're talking about here?
[23:28] <romy420> moving the files takes time to move them
[23:28] <bekks> With current techniques, you HAVE to wait, when copying things from one place to another.
[23:28] <Dr_willis> ;)
[23:29] <studio> romy420:not if you combine this 2 drives and make them to perfom as 1
[23:29] <Dr_willis> studio,  I think you are confuseing things...
[23:29] <studio> unite them
[23:29] <Dr_willis> and confuseing terms..
[23:29] <romy420> studio, this may be possible but u surely dont wanna go there
[23:29] <studio> Dr_willis: why's that
[23:29] <Dr_willis> if they are one.. then how are you 'copying' things from one to the other?
[23:29] <vlt> Hello. I installed Xen on Ubuntu 12.04 and try to run an HVM domU. I get an error msg "/usr/share/qemu/keymaps/en-us not found" but there's a /usr/share/qemu-linaro/keymaps/en-us instead on ubuntu. Any idea how to tell xen to use that instead?
[23:30] <tbrock> is anyone doing something to fix the amd drivers
[23:30]  * Dr_willis lost how it became  a question of 'installing windows apps to a flash drive' to 'instantly copying files'
[23:30] <tbrock> ubuntu is sucking hardcore with the proprietary drivers
[23:30] <studio> Dr_willis:copy takes time because doubles the file i want to move it
[23:30] <bekks> studio: You HAVE to wait until they are moved.
[23:30] <studio> romy420:do you know a way
[23:30] <Dr_willis> studio,  i think you need to clarify EXACTLY what you are trying to do.
[23:31] <studio> bekks:you dont need to wait if you move a file from a drive to another location in this drive
[23:31] <bekks> studio: It is like a sheet of paper - you cant instantly move it from one office to another. You have to transport it, fax it, scan and email it, etc.
[23:31] <romy420> theoretically u could do an installation of ubuntu on lvm disk and then later add the usb drive to that lvm group, but really, nobidy would do this
[23:31] <Dr_willis> moveing a file shouldent be much differnt in speed then copying it.. just a bit of extra time to delete the orginal once the copy is done.
[23:32] <bekks> studio: having TWO physical drives, HOW do you thing an information is going to be transferred to the other drive?
[23:32] <ignacio> fddf
[23:32] <ignacio> fddffd
[23:32] <romy420> if u want to work with the files directly: plugin your usb ... wait 1 sec .. open nautilus and access your drive via the side pane
[23:32] <studio> bekks:i want to unite the 2 drives to perform as 1
[23:32] <bekks> studio: technically impossible, in terms of waiting times.
[23:32] <OerHeks> format it as LVM
[23:33] <studio> 0erHeks:how can i do that
[23:33] <vlt> vlt: Quick'n'Dirty: ln -s /usr/share/qemu-linaro ...
[23:33] <OerHeks> but you will lose data
[23:33] <Dr_willis> studio,  you plan on removeing the USB flash at some time?
[23:33] <romy420> of course, removing the usb drive would mess up the lvm setup ;)
[23:33] <Cooky^^> studio: why  would you want to 'unite' a usb drive and a hard disk?
[23:33] <OerHeks> correct romy420 :-D
[23:33] <studio> Dr_willis:probably but i understand that then i should need to re-do the thing as previous
[23:34] <Dr_willis> studio,  i dont see what you are planing on gaining by all this.. or what you are accessing that needs this to be done.
[23:34] <studio> OerHeks:correct?
[23:34] <studio> OerHeks; :S
[23:35] <bekks> When really having the need of "replicating" things across different places, etc., you have to invest some 100k for storage hardware that replicates synchronously, where you are on this planet.
[23:36] <studio> bekks: lol
[23:36] <OerHeks> you could set a cronjob with a script that is looking for your usb drive, and use rsync to copy
[23:37] <bekks> No kidding. Not at all.
[23:37] <studio> bekks:can you help me with that
[23:37] <studio> 0erHeks: wait
[23:37] <VanKush> Dr_willis: I don't really want to give in that way, this wo will get busted upon next X or kdm upgrade
[23:38] <bekks> studio: Using home driven hardware, it is not possible.
[23:38] <romy420> expenses seem to be no issue here?!
[23:38] <arielsanflo> #ubuntu-es
[23:38] <studio> 0erHeks:oh come on evetyhing is possible
[23:38] <studio> bekks:take that back
[23:38] <bekks> romy420: Well, in that case...  Far too loooong.
[23:40]  * Dr_willis invents FTL Syncing
[23:40] <bekks> Dr_willis: Syncing with /dev/zero ? :)
[23:41] <romy420> i want to go the moon ... it must be possible with ubuntu
[23:41] <VanKush> if I delete /etc/X11/Xsession.options, will it regenerate?
[23:42] <bekks> romy420: Instantly.
[23:42] <Dr_willis> VanKush,  perhaps just rename it and see..
[23:43] <romy420> bekks, right and dont bother me with facts
[23:43] <Cooky^^> lol
[23:43] <bekks> romy420: Are you on the moon already? :)
[23:43] <Cooky^^> you crazy kids
[23:43] <OerHeks> romy420, sudo apt-get install celestia
[23:43] <romy420> studio, it is just not possible, unless we talk very very little files
[23:44] <romy420> OerHeks, LOL
[23:44] <VanKush> brb
[23:44] <studio> romy420:i cant accept this :D
[23:44] <studio> :(
[23:45] <romy420> cmon, what are u? 18yr old billionaire?
[23:45] <studio> lol
[23:45] <studio> probably
[23:45] <studio> okay another question
[23:47] <studio> i have 2 os in my harddrive ubuntu 12.04 and windows 7 64 bit.windows 7 comes with 1 partition,can i take some storage from this partition and add it to my ext4 partiotion for linux?
[23:48] <Cooky^^> studio: use something like gparted for this but be careful so you dont break anything
[23:48] <romy420> studio: yes, if there is enough free space on the windows 7 partition
[23:48] <OerHeks> studio, go into win7, discmanagment and let it decide and show you the max you can decrease your partition, this is
[23:48] <romy420> backup your data before
[23:48] <OerHeks> + the safest way
[23:48] <romy420> right
[23:48] <DjCopyleft>  http://replicant.us/download (free android for smartphones)
[23:49] <Cooky^^> depending on what you are trying to do, you might be better off just mounting your windows 7 disk within linux
[23:49] <studio> i dont think that i can shrink it
[23:49] <ypaq> hey, i'm running ubuntu 12.04. when installing certain packages i get a warning that they aren't authenticated, e.g. apt-get -q -y install libreadline6-dev=6.2-8. why is that and is there a way to fix that?
[23:50] <Murd0ck> memtest ftw
[23:50] <studio> romy420:yeah backup it where? on my mp3 player?
[23:50] <studio> lol
[23:51] <romy420> studio, looks like u need an additional hd
[23:51] <studio> looks like
[23:51] <Dr_willis> windows7 normally comes on 2 partitons on a normal install of it i recall.. one is like a 'boot' partition for widnows. then the main windows 7 install. many PC makers then use a 3rd partiton for a 'restore' partition.
[23:51] <studio> what an irony a billionare kid cant bind an additional hard drive
[23:51] <studio> can buy
[23:51] <studio> cant *!!!!!!!!!!!
[23:52] <Dr_willis> Add to this  the PC makers making a 'recovery/data' partition also.. ive seen many new pcs that are allready using 4 primary partitions.. making installing Linux on them a bit of a pain.
[23:52] <OerHeks> studio, if you use some sort of encrypted partition, it can take a little longer to perform.
[23:53] <studio> okay what if i cant shrind the partition from the disk management?
[23:53] <romy420> u could also say goodbye to windows 7
[23:53] <studio> shrink*
[23:53] <studio> romy420:thats good
[23:53] <studio> romy420:really good
[23:53] <Dr_willis> studio,  use a live cd like the 'gparted' live cd - to do disk resizeing that way no filesystems are mounted.
[23:54] <OerHeks> studio, then you can't (*safely)
[23:54] <Dr_willis> studio,  also windows7 can shrink its own partitons faster i find then the linux tools can.
[23:54] <studio> so many options
[23:54] <romy420> basically two: delete existiing data or get an additional internal hd
[23:55] <studio> Dr_willis:yeah i knew that before
[23:55] <studio> wrong dr_willis
[23:55] <Dr_willis> Put a large ext3 filesystem in a large file on the windows partion. :)
[23:55] <studio> romy420:i knew that
[23:55] <studio> huh
[23:55] <Dr_willis> so many comments that dont make much sence....
[23:56] <kroaken> Guys goods night before all.. IS it possible to install fglrx agains a HD 4670 ?!
[23:56] <kroaken> ATI in ubuntu\
[23:56] <kroaken> does it work ?
[23:56] <Dr_willis> how old is that card kroaken ?
[23:56] <Barnabas> ATI works just fine ..
[23:56] <studio> Dr_willis:this card is good :D
[23:57] <kroaken> middle 2010
[23:57] <studio> i agree with above
[23:58] <kroaken> im getting nuts i cant install sucessfully fglrx
[23:58] <kroaken> :s
[23:58] <Barnabas> have been a ubuntu user on a radeon 9700 pro for many years in the past
[23:59] <Dr_willis> kroaken,  seems its been used that way.  a liuttle googling finds benchmarks for that card in 12.10 --> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel_ivy_gpushow&num=4
[23:59] <Barnabas> does fglrx support the chipset on your gpu
[23:59] <Barnabas> first question
[23:59] <Barnabas> look in the documentation
[23:59] <Dr_willis> Hmm. those benchmarks may be for the GPL drivers...
