[00:00] <jjkinas> ejo:  yah i feel your pain , on the last page of that link it says that someone set up a  fglrx legacy ppa ... does that help you ?
[00:01] <Aufwind> Is it recommended to use a /boot partition?
[00:01] <jrib> Aufwind: not really necessary imo
[00:02] <ihsw> does anyone have any stats on how many 'apt-get update' queries are issued each month by ubuntu users
[00:02] <n2diy_> how do you reconfigure X in 12.10?
[00:02] <chaotix> hi all...  trying LUBUNTU for the first time here, asked my question in #lubuntu and #LXDE, no responces yet, however...  or any chat activity at all for that matter :(     ..so here goes:  anyone know how to add the search bar to synaptic package man. ?   i know that i can click on search, but in some distrobutions there is a search bar where the search button is in LXDE, and i find it to...
[00:02] <chaotix> ...be wayyyy more convenient. looked around in settings→preferences but i cant seem to find it :(    ...anyone know where it is??
[00:03] <ihsw> or, more to the point, i'm trying to convince a friend of the scale of shuttleworth's "we have root" statement, particularly how often we give root to canonical
[00:03] <jrib> ihsw: I don't see how the two are related
[00:04] <ihsw> jrib: there is a great deal of trust we give to canonical and i just want to quantify that with a real number
[00:05] <Meris> ishw, better take this to #ubuntu-offtopic instead
[00:05] <ejo> jjkinas: It probably would help me if I chose to risk spending a couple of hours on installing 12.10 again.  But I think I'm done with it for a month or so, will just let it age a bit.
[00:05] <jrib> ihsw: if you update packages signed by canonical (or anyone else) and do not read the source, then you are trusting canonical (or anyone else).  And yes, this is more appropriate in #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:05] <t|4sk> now I have many options to try, thanks all :)
[00:07] <Meris> ejo, you could try a conservative X setting in grub, to see if that helps you, a safe graphics mode so to speak...
[00:08] <PatrickDickey> jrib, I've figured out what's wrong with my cronjob. But, I'm clueless as to how to fix the problem. The python script can't open the files needed when I run it from the command line. But, if I run it through the IDE that I created it in, it works fine.
[00:09] <jrib> PatrickDickey: pastebin the stdout and stderr you got from the cronjob
[00:09] <devnill> I'm trying to install a new wireless card and its not showing up in ifconfig -a
[00:10] <devnill> how do I debug this?
[00:10] <jrib> !wireless | devnill
[00:10] <KM0201> devnill: well, is it showing up in lspci ?
[00:10] <jrib> devnill: should give you a starting point
[00:10] <PatrickDickey> I haven't done that part yet. I've just tried running the script manually. I got error 13 Permission Denied.
[00:10] <devnill> i'll take a look
[00:10] <jrib> PatrickDickey: ok, pastebin that
[00:11] <n2diy_> I upgraded my test box from 12.04 to 12.10, and now X doesn't display correctly, and the mouse isn't working. I can use command line in a console.
[00:12] <n2diy_> how do you reconfigure X in 12.10?
[00:12] <klaxtr> my friend has a samsung smart tv and is asking if  the OS can be changed for ubuntu tv, is this possible
[00:12] <Meris> n2diy_, you could try a conservative X setting in grub, to see if that helps you, a safe graphics mode so to speak...
[00:13] <PatrickDickey> jrib here's the best that I can give you. http://paste.ubuntu.com/1298951/
[00:13] <n2diy_> Meris, ok, I've never played with grub, how do I go about that?
[00:13] <wols> n2diy_: generally, there is no X configuration. do you have a xorg.conf file?
[00:13] <PatrickDickey> It's odd, because if I open the project in Komodo (the IDE I created it in), it runs fine.
[00:14] <jrib> PatrickDickey: so where is it trying to write results.log to?
[00:14] <n2diy_> wols, I have xorg.conf.d
[00:14] <PatrickDickey> The same directory as the script. And the permissions are 666 on all text files.
[00:15] <jrib> PatrickDickey: what directory did you run this from (« pwd »)?  What is the output of « ls -ld /home/patrickdickey/Documents/TunnelBrokerUpdater/ »?
[00:15] <ex0a> anyone here know how i can reinstall grub after a dist-upgrade to 12.10 with dmraid setup (it broke grub and i'm left chainloading from SGD atm to get into the os)
[00:15] <jrib> PatrickDickey: by the way, what's with the ".bak"?
[00:16] <Nach0z> ex0a: sudo apt-get install grub && sudo update-grub  should work
[00:16] <ex0a> it doesn't
[00:16] <PatrickDickey> Well, I ran the 2to3 script on it, and found out that I have python 2.7.3 installed. So I was running the backup file.
[00:16] <Copernicus2K> how can i check what gpu driver i am using? if i am using nouveau or nvidia?
[00:16] <ex0a> let me get the pastebin again brb
[00:16] <Meris> n2diy_, try adding vga=771 to your boot line in grub2. When grub starts, you can edit the line if you interrupt the boot process, just add vga=771 to the boot options
[00:16] <klaxtr> does some one try ubuntu tv already??\
[00:17] <Copernicus2K> how can i check what gpu driver i am using? if i am using nouveau or nvidia???
[00:17] <PatrickDickey> Here's the ls -ld results drwxrwxr-x 3 patrickdickey patrickdickey 4096 Oct 22 19:03 /home/patrickdickey/Documents/TunnelBrokerUpdater/
[00:18] <infectedorganism> just installed and configured lubuntu 12.10 to my liking. im looking at cloning this installation, but how would i go about restoring in case anything were to happen?
[00:18] <PatrickDickey> I'm guessing that I need to add +w to the directory.
[00:18] <Meris> Copernicus2K, try less /proc/driver/nvidia/version
[00:18] <PatrickDickey> And it doesn't matter which directory I run it from. I've ran it from /, /home/patrickdickey, and even inside the directory itself.
[00:19] <johnjacobjingerh> hey guys i have a question about installing ubuntu.   I have a computer that has 2 partitions.  One partition I have windows on (which i want to wipe out) the other one I have my files on.  I have the Ubuntu disk in, but it's wanting to install to the WHOLE drive
[00:19] <johnjacobjingerh> i'm afraid this will wipe my drive out
[00:19] <johnjacobjingerh> i want to install it to the 100GB partition and have it reformat it EXT4
[00:19] <johnjacobjingerh> what is the correct way to install ubuntu to the 100GB partition with out touching the 900GB partition
[00:20] <PatrickDickey> johnjacobjinger you can select the manually partition option, and pick the partition you want. It should be the last option (Custom)
[00:20] <jrib> PatrickDickey: if you just answer my questions, it will make it easier for me to help you
[00:20] <johnjacobjingerh> ok i got into that, and it does list out all my partitions, one of whicdh is a 100GB... and there's a box next to it that says Format.  is that what I want to check?
[00:21] <PatrickDickey> jrib, I tried running it from /, my home directory, and the directory it's located in. The results of ls -ld is drwxrwxr-x 3 patrickdickey patrickdickey 4096 Oct 22 19:03 /home/patrickdickey/Documents/TunnelBrokerUpdater/ and the .bak file is because I ran the 2to3 script on it, but found out after the fact that I've got Python 2.7.3 installed yet.
[00:21] <jrib> PatrickDickey: for the pastebin, where did you run it from?
[00:21] <PatrickDickey> jrib, that was from /
[00:22] <jrib> PatrickDickey: do « cd », then run it again and pastebin (command and output)
[00:22] <Cong> why isn't where a option like: this is the side I want to install. now do it automatically.
[00:22] <Jordan_U> Cong: What do you mean by "side"?
[00:22] <Cong> partition
[00:23] <PatrickDickey> jrib how do I add the actual error to the output? Right now, if it's an IOError, it just prints "Unable to open UserInfo.txt file."
[00:24] <ex0a> i can't get grub to install on 12.10 with dmraid http://paste.ubuntu.com/1298956/
[00:24] <Nach0z> oh. dmraid.
[00:24] <jrib> PatrickDickey: not sure what you mean.  You ran it from a terminal right?
[00:25] <Aufwind> Is it possible to umount a drice which is busy, by forcing it somehow?
[00:25] <rotten777> Can anyone point me in the right direction troubleshooting my login? I get lightdm up, login, and it immediately returns me to lightdm. But only under one user.
[00:25] <PatrickDickey> Yes. But I changed the script to print instead of trying to write to a file. When I try to write to a file, it just goes back to the prompt.
[00:25] <jrib> Aufwind: probably best to just close whatever processes are using it
[00:26] <jrib> PatrickDickey: it goes back to the prompt, without error?
[00:26] <Aufwind> I am on a live CD and I have mounted some drives from my harddrive, does this matter here? As far as I known there shouldn't been something important going on.
[00:26] <Aufwind> jrib: I have a little trouble figuring all the processes using the drive. :-)
[00:26] <jrib> Aufwind: you probably just have a terminal with current working directory on the mounted partition
[00:26] <PatrickDickey> yes. I was running it from /home/patrickdickey at that time. If I run it from /, I get the same pastebin that I showed you earlier.
[00:26] <rotten777> Aufwind: umount -l /dev/sdX#
[00:27] <trism> rotten777: what is: ls -l ~/.Xauthority;
[00:27] <Aufwind> rotten777: thanks!
[00:27] <daviddoria> PatrickDickey, (sorry for the long delay in my reply) - but the installation is stuck (for 10 hours now) - so what would you do if not stop it?
[00:28] <Cong> that's x11's magic cookie
[00:28] <rotten777> trism: checking...
[00:28] <trism> rotten777: if that looks okay, see what signal was returned in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log and also check out ~/.xsession-errors
[00:28] <jrib> PatrickDickey: you are confusing me.  I asked you if it returned to the prompt without error and you replied "yes".  But at the same time you say it's the same as the pastebin you posted earlier which has an error.  And you said it didn't matter where you ran it from. Are you saying that when you run it from /home/patrick, there is no problem?  I think you've found your issue in that case.
[00:28] <rotten777> trism: a root owned single file
[00:28] <johnjacobjingerh> uh oh... now i think i fudged up
[00:28] <trism> Cong: yes, and often it gets owned by root, preventing login
[00:28] <trism> rotten777: yeah that is probably it, just delete that file and try to log in again
[00:28] <johnjacobjingerh> how the heck do i set a root partition?
[00:29] <johnjacobjingerh> i am in the partition editor at the install
[00:29] <rotten777> trism: many thanks!
[00:29] <dr_willis> johnjacobjingerh:  the root partion has a mountpoint of '/'
[00:29] <PatrickDickey> jrib, I'll pastebin something different. I did a pwd to show you where I'm at, and then ran the file. Then I changed to another directory, and ran it again.
[00:29] <johnjacobjingerh> i did that but it still says that it's not selected
[00:29] <johnjacobjingerh> oh wait
[00:29] <johnjacobjingerh> i messed up
[00:29] <johnjacobjingerh> i selected /boot
[00:29] <johnjacobjingerh> lol
[00:29] <FloodBot1> johnjacobjingerh: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:30] <dr_willis> the use of  /boot/ is  a little old school. ;)
[00:30] <dr_willis> just needed in a few cases these days
[00:30] <johnjacobjingerh> also... where should the bootloader be installed?  on the same partition as the OS or the entire drive
[00:30] <johnjacobjingerh> (if i write it to the entire drive will it mess with my 900GB partition that has my data on it
[00:30] <PatrickDickey> jrib http://paste.ubuntu.com/1298968/
[00:31] <jrib> PatrickDickey: just seems like your script writes results.log to whatever the current directory is and it fails if it can't.  So either change your script to not fail if it can't write results.log or make sure you run your script from somewhere where you can write to
[00:32] <PatrickDickey> daviddoria, You'll have to stop it then. It's broken anyhow. What you might be able to do (and somene else will probably be able to answer this better than I can) is download the iso and burn it to a DVD. Then use that to install. It *should* detect the current system, and allow you to upgrade it.
[00:32] <ex0a> can anyone point me in the right direction in fixing grub after an update to 12.10 broke it? (using dmraid) boot-repair output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1298956/
[00:33] <daviddoria> PatrickDickey, ok, that sounds like a reasonable thing to try next if I reboot and it is broken...
[00:33] <PatrickDickey> jrib, is there a way to specify that it writes results.log to the same directory as the script regardless of where it's being ran from?
[00:33] <johnjacobjingerh> can Gparted change the format of a drive without erasing it?
[00:34] <Nach0z> uh
[00:34] <johnjacobjingerh> like convert NTFS to FAT32
[00:34] <jrib> PatrickDickey: sure, but you would need to modify your python code
[00:34] <Nach0z> johnjacobjingerh: nope. don't think so.
[00:34] <johnjacobjingerh> oh...
[00:34] <johnjacobjingerh> actually just noticed ubuntu can read and write ntfs so nvm
[00:34] <PatrickDickey> jrib, what would I need to put in? It needs to be a relative path though, as I'll be posting the code to a forum eventually.
[00:35] <jrib> PatrickDickey: you can probably use __file__, but #python would know better
[00:35] <PatrickDickey> Thanks jrib. I'll have to pop in there and find out.
[00:36] <johnjacobjingerh> if this doesnt work i'm suing #ubuntu
[00:36] <PatrickDickey> johnjacobjinger, let me know how that works out.
[00:36] <PatrickDickey> :D
[00:37] <PatrickDickey> On a serious note johnjacobjinger, when you got to the option to "Do Something Else" what did you see in there?
[00:37] <Arizona> Hi every<Arizona> Hi everybody*
 I was wondering if you guys know about the updated grub
 and if you could help me
 Im new to linux, and I need some help with the boot loader
 I want to set Win7 as my default (top of the list)
[00:37] <FloodBot1> Arizona: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
 but I dont know how
[00:37] <bkc_> !enter | Arizona
[00:37] <Arizona> Thank you
[00:37] <Arizona> so can anyone help me
[00:37] <Arizona> ?
[00:38] <ms_daisy> !grub | Arizona
[00:38] <Arizona> ms_daisy, Im still confused
[00:38] <Arizona> is grub2
[00:38] <Arizona> the updated grub for ubuntu
[00:38] <Arizona> ?
[00:38] <bkc_> yes, grub2
[00:39] <ms_daisy> Read the link first. You probably have grub2 also Arizona
[00:39] <PatrickDickey> Arizona, you want the second link. The general information on Grub2.
[00:39] <Arizona> alright
[00:40] <PatrickDickey> Arizona, specifically the "Configuring Grub2" section.
[00:42] <gustav__> Anyone heard of using a Nikon D90 with Ubuntu 12.10?
[00:43] <johnjacobjingerh> gustav__, yep. just now i did
[00:43] <Jordan_U> Arizona: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[00:43] <ahmad> hello everyone!
[00:43] <Arizona> jordan, I'm using xubuntu 12.10
[00:43] <Arizona> And before you tell me to go on #xubuntu
[00:43] <gustav__> johnjacobjingerh: I should be more specific. Did you use PTP and/or control the camera? Not just mass storage?
[00:44] <Arizona> they told me to go over here because the people that where on weren't sure on how to use grub2
[00:44] <Jordan_U> Arizona: This channel is fine for any official flavor of Ubuntu, no complaints here :)
[00:45] <Arizona> Jordan_U, Thanks
[00:45] <Arizona> But im still confused as to the grub2
[00:45] <Arizona> :s
[00:45] <crimsonmane> FRANK-N-FURTER: you're a hotdog
[00:45] <Jordan_U> Arizona: The easiest (and IMHO best) option is to simply change the GRUB_DEFAULT= in /etc/default/grub. If you pastebin your /boot/grub/grub.cfg I can tell you the exact value to use.
[00:45] <Arizona> ok
[00:46] <johnjacobjingerh> i dont know what PTP is
[00:47] <Arizona> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1298999/
[00:48] <gustav__> johnjacobjingerh: Picture Transfer Protocol. Enables liveview from cameras. And stuff like that.
[00:49] <ejo> Meris: thank you, that's a good idea
[00:50] <FRANK-N-FURTER> I'm just a sweet transvetite!
[00:50] <Arizona> Jordan_U, are you here?
[00:51] <pitviper296> hi guys , trying to install testdisk and Having some issues
[00:51] <pitviper296> can anyone help me?
[00:51] <facu> I can't resize the Unity Launcher panel, who can help me?
[00:52] <Jordan_U> Arizona: What is the output of "grub-install --version"?
[00:53] <Jordan_U> Arizona: That looks like a grub.cfg from grub 1.99, which would be from Ubuntu 12.04 rather than Ubuntu 12.10.
[00:53] <wilee-nilee> pitviper296, Download it from the site and double click on it.
[00:53] <pitviper296> can anyone help me install testdisk?
[00:53] <stumpped> Help please.. We had thunderstorms and knocked out power.  I couldnt get connected back to the internet so I removed network and went to reinstall it but wasnt connected so I cant.... I am using the live boot cd now    Can someone help me use connand line to reinstall network manager
[00:53] <Chairman_meow> hi i have two fo,.ders of MP3s io need to convert into something usable in ardour. Ideas?
[00:53] <Arizona> Jordan_U,
[00:53] <Arizona> Its 1.99
[00:53] <Arizona> :s
[00:54] <ejo> facu, you can change the icon size under Settings > Appearance > Launcher Icon Size.  But I don't know any way to change the size of the launcher panel itself
[00:54] <pitviper296> testdisk: error while loading shared libraries: libreiserfs-0.3.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[00:54] <ejo> (except that it auto-sizes its width to the icons, and is always full height)
[00:54] <Jordan_U> Arizona: What is the output of "lsb_release -d"?
[00:55] <Arizona> 1sb?
[00:55] <Arizona> lsb
[00:55] <Arizona> l or 1
[00:55] <Jordan_U> Arizona: L
[00:55] <facu> ejo: yes, the icon size but the option is not there no more
[00:55] <Fullbust> hi. when creating a new user, is there a way how to automatically run a default script for further configuration? thanks
[00:55] <Arizona> Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[00:56] <Jordan_U> Arizona: That's not 12.10 :) But that doesn't matter too much. What you want is GRUB_DEFAULT="Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda2)" in /etc/default/grub.
[00:56] <Arizona> Jordan_U,
[00:56] <Arizona> I downloaded xubuntu 12.10 though
[00:56] <Arizona> :S
[00:56] <Arizona> Anyway
[00:56] <Jordan_U> Arizona: Don't forget the quotes, and make sure to run "sudo update-grub" afterward to be sure it takes affect.
[00:56] <Arizona> it didnt work
[00:56] <Arizona> last time i tried it
[00:56] <Arizona> so Jordan_U
[00:56] <Arizona> I just tye in
[00:56] <FloodBot1> Arizona: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:57] <Arizona> GRUB_DEFAULT="Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda2)"
[00:57] <Arizona> ?
[00:57] <Arizona> Because I tried this and it didnt work
[00:57] <Arizona> :s
[00:57] <BlackBsd> hello all, i installed kubuntu 12.10 when i log in some widgets on the start bar cause kde to crash and i have to re-login.  any ideas which log i could look at?
[00:58] <BlackBsd> i was having the same issue if i installed ubuntu then added kde-full
[00:58] <ahmad> i was wondering if anyone can shed some light on this topic for me.. is there a way to clone my ubuntu desktop installation and save it as an iso image that i can use to restore ubuntu to that state if anything ever goes wrong?
[00:58] <roy_muzz> Hi, I have a ubuntu LTS 10.04 headless server that i just upgraded to 12.04. The upgrade did not seem super clean and there was a  "failed to read on buffer copy for md5hash: Input/output error" when installing bash completion. The server is running fine now but I am worried that it wont come back up after a reboot. Any commands that I can run to check whether the machine will come back up?
[00:58] <Arizona> Alright, I'm going to check if it works
[00:58] <Arizona> brb
[00:58] <wilee-nilee> ahmad, remastersys
[00:58] <Jimster480-L> what version of KDE are you using
[00:58] <Jordan_U> Arizona: Please pastebin your /etc/default/grub, then run "sudo update-grub" (to be sure that your grub.cfg reflects the most recent changes to /etc/default/grub) and then post your full /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
[00:58] <BlackBsd> odd, sometimes compiz would seem to crash also
[00:58] <XiaolinDraconis> ahmad, clonezilla
[00:58] <stumpped> dr_willis   Can you help me get my install ubuntu 12.o4 back online.. The network manager was removed and I cannot reinstall it.  Please help
[00:58] <XiaolinDraconis> ahmad, but it wont be an iso
[00:58] <Arizona> Jordan_U, I typed in /etc/default/grub and it didnt show anything
[00:59] <Arizona> I'm really confused
[00:59] <Arizona> :c
[00:59] <BlackBsd> I am using the version that came with 12.10
[00:59] <BlackBsd> let me check on that
[00:59] <facu> I can't resize the Unity Launcher's icon, who can help me?
[00:59] <stumpped> dr_willis  I am using the live cd.. The network manager is not in the taskbar
[00:59] <wilee-nilee> ahmad, I would clone it rather then make a ISO, as suggested with clonezilla.
[00:59] <ahmad> thank you XiaolinDraconis  and wilee-nilee I will look in to those options now
[01:00] <BlackBsd> I am not sure which version of kde this is..
[01:00] <Chairman_meow> hi i have two fo,.ders of MP3s io need to convert into something usable in ardour. Ideas?
[01:00] <Jordan_U> Arizona: /etc/default/grub is not a command, it's a text file. To open /etc/default/grub in a text editor run "gkdudo mousepad /etc/default/grub".
[01:00] <crimsonmane> gksudo
[01:00] <dr_willis> !info ardour2
[01:00] <dr_willis> !info ardour
[01:01] <dr_willis> weird it couldent handle mp3's
[01:01] <BlackBsd> i think the xsession is crashing?
[01:01] <Arizona> I put in gksudo mousepad /etc/default/grub
[01:02] <Arizona> and it didnt work, Jordan_U
[01:02] <stumpped> CAN ANYONE help me get the network manager back ...  I am using the live cd now and cannot get online if using the HD installed version.
[01:02] <Jordan_U> Arizona: What did happen?
[01:02] <Chairman_meow> dr_willis, yea i thought so too!\
[01:02] <Arizona> Jordan_U, nothing
[01:02] <dr_willis> Chairman_meow:  could be it just needs some extra plugin, or codec pack installed.
[01:02] <Jordan_U> Arizona: Were you returned to a prompt?
[01:03] <dr_willis> stumpped:  how did you remove it?  how do you normally connect?
[01:03] <BlackBsd> The version of kde is 4.9.2
[01:03] <Chairman_meow> dr_willis, is there  a simple way to convert mp3s? and i did a quick google and ddint notice anything about plugins for mp3s but ill try again
[01:03] <Arizona> when you mean prompt Jordan_U
[01:03] <Arizona> do you mean like
[01:03] <x1250> I have the multiverse repo, but can't find tremulous in 12.10, any help?? Maybe I'm missing something
[01:03] <Arizona> classic@classic-linux:~$ gksudo mousepad /etc/default/grub

[01:03] <XiaolinDraconis> bingo
[01:03] <stumpped> dr_willis I removed it because I thought it needed to be reinstalled.. We had thunderstorms and power was knocked out.. Long story.. I am using live cd
[01:04] <dr_willis> Chairman_meow:  should be dozens of ways to convert mp3 to wav.  ive never really needed to.
[01:05] <wastrel> !info tremulous quantal
[01:05] <ahmad> very cool guys.. clonezilla seems to be exactly what i am looking for :)
[01:05] <TheRedOctober> Greetings all. Trying to get up kerberos, Ubuntu documentation on this leaves much to be desired (other than free). I am consistenly not able to contact LDAP server from KDC, and other than setting ldap_server in krb5.conf, I can't figure out what could be the cause...ideas?
[01:05] <Jordan_U> Arizona: That's odd, it should have opened a new window in the "Mousepad" text editor. Unfortunately I need to go for a few hours now. You definitely need to edit /etc/default/grub though, I don't know what you were doing before but as it doesn't appear that you were editing /etc/default/grub that explains why what you were doing wasn't working.
[01:05] <trism> x1250: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=672853
[01:05] <stumpped> dr_willis I removed it with the ubuntu package installer.. but trying to reinstall it I didnt realize i couldnt use the cd..
[01:05] <Chairman_meow> Does anyone know of a simple preferably GUI way oif converting MP3 to WAV/other
[01:06] <ClientAlive> how do I also install "suggested packages" when running apt-get install on the command line?
[01:06] <Arizona> sigh
[01:06] <Arizona> ok, Jordan_U
[01:06] <blackshirt> theredoctober, your ldap server should in resolvable name
[01:06] <dr_willis> stumpped:  its possible to configure the network via command line. but ive not had to do that in ages.   since im wired to a router. i just have to do a 'ifup eth0' i recall or 'dhclient'
[01:06] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: it is, reverse resolvable as well.
[01:06] <x1250> trism, ok, thanks for the link
[01:07] <stumpped> dr_willis  i am wireless
[01:07] <blackshirt> theredoctober, is both of them resides on different machines?
[01:07] <dr_willis> Chairman_meow:  you see this ? http://ardour.org/mp3
[01:08] <escott> stumpped, then you have to set the essid with iwconfig, use wpa_supplicant to do the crypto handshake and maybe also dhclient
[01:08] <escott> stumpped, if you have any kind of gui and have ever set up the wireless with network manager nmcli might be eaiser
[01:08] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: roger, ldap1 and ldap2 are two seperate machines, kdc1 and kdc2 are two seperate machiens as well, total of 4 machines, TLS set up and confirmed on LDAP, LDAP is working as expected.
[01:09] <BlackBsd> anyone  use KDE?
[01:10] <blackshirt> theredoctober, kerberos relies on synhronized time between server and client, you should ensure that
[01:10] <dr_willis> Night all..
[01:10] <stumpped> escott  what is nmcli   it is not in the software center
[01:10] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: specifically, I am getting "kadmin.local: Can't contact LDAP server while initializing kadmin.local interface," I am following server guide line for line, can't find a resolution. I can contact LDAP server, why can't this?
[01:10] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: yeah, I know, NTP is installed on all machines :)
[01:10] <escott> !find nmcli | stumpped
[01:11] <blackshirt> dr_willis, good morning guys
[01:11] <blackshirt> theredoctober, you should not use kadmin.local for network based access..they just for local communication through socket internally used by kerberos..
[01:13] <Duke> rsync?
[01:13] <ex0a> can anyone point me in the right direction in fixing grub after an update to 12.10 broke it? (using dmraid) boot-repair output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1298956/
[01:13] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: interesting. I really really want to help on the server guide documentation, they need to qualify these things better. Now when I use kadmin, I get "kadmin: Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm while initializing kadmin interface"
[01:14] <diverdude> hello... is it possible to make the NCI ask the DHCP server refresh its IP ?
[01:14] <blackshirt> theredoctober, greats if you can help the community to improve somethings...
[01:14] <blackshirt> theredoctober, ensure your kdc was up and running
[01:15] <ClientAlive> what is gcc and g++ multilib? Is it something I may want?
[01:16] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: I would like to, but first I need to figure out how to get kerberos working. I have wanted to get this going for years, to no avail. Looking at services, I noticed that no, krb5-kdc was not running...
[01:17] <escott> ClientAlive, http://airs.com/ian/configure/configure_8.html
[01:17] <ClientAlive> ok
[01:17] <blackshirt> theredoctober, thats bad if not running...
[01:17] <wilee-nilee> ex0a, Have you had a chance to start a thread at the Ubuntu Forums, the designer of the boot repair tool and some others are on there everyday dealing with grub problems specifically.
[01:18] <ex0a> wilee-nilee: i haven't, i've just been pinging in here randomly while doing research etc
[01:18] <TheRedOctober> blackshirt: yeah, not going to get so far without that. Now I am setting up logging to try to get some handle on why it fails to start.
[01:18] <ex0a> will do that shortly
[01:18] <wilee-nilee> ex0a, Cool. ;)
[01:19] <folorn> wasn't there some command that started with linkd or something for viewing webpages too?? anyone know
[01:19] <blackshirt> theredoctober, glads if you report it here
[01:20] <ex0a> folorn: links or lynx i believe are both cli web browsers
[01:20] <folorn> thanks ex0a
[01:20] <folorn> brb dling it
[01:20] <XiaolinDraconis> can someone help me fix a partition? its off-topic so we need to do it in private
[01:20] <ahmad> wilee-nilee, would you say clonezilla is one of the most popular SE edition open-source project?
[01:21] <XiaolinDraconis> messed up using clonezilla
[01:21] <wilee-nilee> ahmad, I wouldn't to honestly, I use it though it is a great tool.
[01:21] <diverdude> when i installed the system i created  a super user. Is it possible to change the password for this user, which in turn also is the password to activate sudo?
[01:21] <wilee-nilee> know*
[01:21] <blackshirt> xiaolindraconis, maybe better stand up here, more  people hear your problems,get chances to fix
[01:22] <XiaolinDraconis> itd be nice but its a clonezilla/windows issue
[01:22] <ClientAlive> I think it would be nice to have the multilib stuff with gcc/ g++ but I wonder if it's something that is just automatically available to use with those compilers or do I have to configure the system a certian way first? Also whether it's still possible to choose either multilib or not once it is installed or is a big hassle to just use the compiler the old/ normal way?
[01:22] <escott> diverdude, passwd will prompt you to change the password
[01:22] <wilee-nilee> ahmad, I can post a correct sentence on a good day, I hope that makes sense. ;)
[01:22] <XiaolinDraconis> i copied a win7 partition to another drive, it worked, but windows doesnt see the new size
[01:22] <ClientAlive> that article talks about using it in your makefile so i assume it's just extra options you can use in your command?
[01:23] <folorn> yep that was it.
[01:23] <folorn> thanks
[01:23] <diverdude> escott: aha...so if i do passwd mysudouser    then it will change the password so that whenever i du sudo stuff, i need to use the new password?
[01:23] <vith> heh.. so i went back to the stable build of murmur and first thing i see after restarting the server is "UDP packets can be sent to and received from the server. Switching back to UDP mode."
[01:23] <vith> guess it's an issue with the dev snapshot
[01:24] <escott> diverdude, yes. be careful if you clicked the "encrypted home directory option"
[01:24] <diverdude> escott: luckily i did not
[01:24] <diverdude> escott: can anything go wrong=? I mean...i got some important stuff on this computer and dont really have time to reinstall it :/
[01:25] <escott> diverdude, not really
[01:26] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Hmm I have used clonezilla to clone my W7 setup many times and have reload it with no problems.
[01:26] <pitviper296> hey guys / girls, I'm having some trouble installing testdisk to ubuntu 12.04 from an rmp
[01:26] <pitviper296> can any one help me
[01:26] <snark> anyone any good with spdif   in and out concepts?
[01:26] <ahmad> wilee-nilee, just wondering if i am going to start using a program i would rather use the most supported one out there
[01:27] <escott> !rpm | pitviper296
[01:27] <diverdude> How can i make a script which kills a process named myprocess if it exists?
[01:27] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, i used beginner mode to clone partition (not disk) from one drive to another, the new partition is larger, but windows doesnt know it
[01:27] <johnjacobjingerh> anyone here manage to get vnc server to run on ubuntu
[01:27] <johnjacobjingerh> ?
[01:27] <OerHeks> pitviper296, don't use .rpm, use the .deb version: better, use testdisk from software centre/synaptic
[01:27] <escott> diverdude, killall myprocess
[01:27] <alone> diverdude: ps and one if.. && kill :^
[01:27] <johnjacobjingerh> i have some questions regarding the .vnc/xstartup configuration
[01:28] <snark> is this spdif setup sane.......
[01:28] <wilee-nilee> ahmad, Most important would be a personal and subjective decision, what one thinks is will not necessarily be another’s opinion.
[01:28] <snark> onboard spdif optical out ------>usb sound card with spdif  in------>line out on usb card--------line in on speakers
[01:28] <pitviper296> OerHeks:  testdisk isn't in the repo for 12.04, I installed it before using " alien " which generated a .deb file but my flash drive corrupted
[01:28] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, You made the partition ahead of time right?
[01:28] <Shirakawasuna> is there a centralized way to figure out why my monitor keeps going into sleep mode? I know that there are potentially many sources, but it'd be great if there was some centralized way to check quickly
[01:29] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, yes but it was ext4
[01:29] <alone> purée irc.freenode.net:6667 #ubuntu 1622 personnes XD
[01:29] <OerHeks> pitviper296, yes it is.
[01:29] <alone> great channel =)
[01:29] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Ah, I reload to the same partitio type, that is probably a problem.
[01:29] <wilee-nilee> partition*
[01:29] <pitviper296> OerHeks:  sudo apt-get install testdisk " returns package not found "
[01:30] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Windows wont read a ext type partition as well.
[01:30] <diverdude> escott: that
[01:30] <diverdude> escott: thx :)
[01:30] <Shirakawasuna> or alternatively, a cli way to access the status of each setting
[01:30] <rcmaehl_webchat> Does anyone know of a program for Windows that has the same functionality or similar functionallity as hdparm for linux?
[01:30] <wilee-nilee> not a ext4 anyway.
[01:30] <cfhowlett> apacerimmer@EmperorOS:~$ apt-cache policy testdisk

[01:35] <tryingUbuntu> how to get the network manager icon back on the toolbar?
[01:35] <Fishscene> startnotify=echo -e "stuffhere" \n "moo". Output is: "stuffhere n moo". Any ideas?
[01:35] <blackshirt> cowsquad, yes, my powerbutton works normally
[01:36] <Fishscene> It's ignoring the \n (New line) entirely, despite the fact that the manpages say "echo -e" tells echo to respect the \n as a new line.
[01:36] <alone> Fishscene: i'm seeing
[01:36] <cowsquad> when I press my down and I choose suspend, it doesnt work
[01:36] <tryingUbuntu> dr_willis  do you know how to get the network manager icon on the toolbar near the clock
[01:36] <wilee-nilee> coolroot, What is that from?
[01:37] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, i formatted a drive to 100GB partitions all ext4, then i booted to CZ and used beginner mode, told it to copy my sda1(win7) to sdb1(new ext4), it worked and i edited grub to point to sdb1, when i booted windows registered the original 30GB instead of the new 100

[01:37] <OerHeks> coolroot mozilla ppa is depreciated
[01:38] <cfhowlett> pitviper296: after enabling universe run sudo apt-get update THEN install testdisk.
[01:38] <Fishscene> alone: Try the following: echo -e "foo1" \n "foo2"
[01:38] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Was that the W7 OS?
[01:38] <tryingUbuntu> can someone help me get the network manager on the toolbar

[01:38] <coolroot> OerHeks, what do u mean?
[01:38] <OerHeks> coolroot, use https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-next with FF 17
[01:39] <alone> Fishscene: echo -e "foo1\nfoo2"
[01:39] <snark> tryingUbuntu, what desktop you have    gnome? LXDE?
[01:39] <wilee-nilee> coolroot, You have added a PPA it looks to be incorrect or the ppa is closed or not allowing your release.
[01:39] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, yeah, cause ubuntu says its 100
[01:39] <pitviper296> cfhowlett:  that worked like a charm, wonder why the rpm worked last time but wouldn't let me run testdisk this time
[01:39] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, windows thinks its still 30
[01:39] <Fishscene> alone, trism: echo -e "foo1\nfoo2" works as expected. I'll see if I can modify my variable to match this. Thanks!
[01:39] <machicola> what's a good unbuntu application for editing sound (.wav, .midi., .mp3, etc) files?

[01:39] <tryingUbuntu_> can someone help me put the network manager on the toolbar
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, You can't run W7 in a ext4, it may read as a NTFS now but that is user error.
[01:40] <coolroot> OerHeks, so i'll have to copy that link and add it on my list replacing the old ppa for firefox?
[01:40] <DaemonicApathy> tryingUbuntu: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/possible-solutions-to-fix-the-missing-network-manager-icon-in-ubuntu-9-10.html might help
[01:40] <snark> tryingUbuntu, what desktop you have    gnome? LXDE? (im not asking again!)
[01:40] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, it booted

[01:40] <blackshirt> tryingubuntu, run nm-applet
[01:40] <cfhowlett> machicola: audacity, ardour
[01:40] <OerHeks> coolroot, yes, your version is supported, make sure you delete that old one.
[01:40] <pitviper296> OerHeks: thanks alot , confused lol
[01:40] <machicola> great, thanks cfhowlett
[01:40] <alone> Fishscene: for your variable: startnotify=`echo -e "foo1 \n foo2"` i think
[01:41] <snark> BlackBishop, that wont put it onto the desktop for him
[01:41] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, To be honest that is not a logical way of doing it or a valid cause and effect response, lol. ;)
[01:41] <ahmad> quick question: if i have a SSD 128gig hard drive and i want to clone it which includes windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10 dual boot.. i need an external hard drive with 128GB or greater empty space for the image?
[01:41] <alone> Fishscene: doesn't work, sorry x)
[01:41] <DaemonicApathy> Yes, ahmad.
[01:41] <ahmad> Thank you DaemonicApathy
[01:42] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, well i still have the original partition ill reformat the 100 wipe it clean make sure its ntfs and try again
[01:42] <johnjacobjingerh> all i'm having an issue with vnc4server... i have it working, but it seems none of my panels are showing up
[01:42] <snark> spdif help    bump
[01:42] <johnjacobjingerh> and neither is the sidebar
[01:42] <johnjacobjingerh> i only get the terminal window and the desktop background... any ideas?
[01:43] <wilee-nilee> ahmad, The clone is only the size of the data with clonezilla, but the partitions that are used to reload it have to be the same size or bigger.
[01:43] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, in the treminal   type   "gnome-session"  (if your using   gnome that is!
[01:43] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Should work fine then.
[01:44] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, be back in ten to either thank you, or say i told you so ;)
[01:44] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, lol. ;)
[01:44] <roy_muzz> hi, I have a 64 bit Ubuntu LTS 10.04 headless server that i just upgraded to 12.04. The upgrade did not seem super clean and there was a "failed to read on buffer copy for md5hash: Input/output error" when installing bash-completion. The server is running fine now but I am worried that it wont come back up after a reboot. Any commands that I can run to check whether the machine will come back up? How can I find out whether the install was clean?
[01:45] <johnjacobjingerh> snark... gnome is running i think
[01:45] <johnjacobjingerh> i see the desktop background and window decorations
[01:45] <johnjacobjingerh> i just cant get to any of the panels or the sidebar thingy
[01:46] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, well you could do a reboot now and see if the errors gone ie you get a full desktop
[01:47] <johnjacobjingerh> snark... i'm talking about using VNC
[01:47] <johnjacobjingerh> i get a desktop fine when i have the physical machine
[01:47] <johnjacobjingerh> it's when i am using the VNC program to remote in that i'm not getting the menu bars
[01:47] <johnjacobjingerh> just a terminal
[01:48] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, are you VNCing into a virtual machine?
[01:48] <johnjacobjingerh> no
[01:48] <johnjacobjingerh> a physical machine in a different building
[01:48] <tiox> USB modeswitch is still being a pain for my LG Turbo. I know it's a modeswitch issue now because when I plug it in using Windows, it switches over, then I reboot into Ubuntu and it works.
[01:49] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, Im not sure what the issue is    it is a desktop issue for sure   also you still have full control of the other node
[01:49] <tiox> I especially need it because for some reason or another, it vehemently refuses to work in Windows with the vendor-branded AT&T Communication Manager by SmithMicro.
[01:50] <johnjacobjingerh> snark. what do you mean I still have full control over the other node?
[01:50] <wilee-nilee> roy_muzz, I would check in with #ubuntu-server
[01:50] <roy_muzz> thanks wilee-nilee
[01:50] <wilee-nilee> no problem
[01:50] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, via VNC to other computer
[01:51] <johnjacobjingerh> well yea.. that's what i am needing to do
[01:51] <johnjacobjingerh> I am trying to VNC in...
[01:51] <johnjacobjingerh> so yes i should hae control
[01:51] <johnjacobjingerh> on the physical computer the desktop is fine, it's when i try to remote in with VNC from my laptop that i have issues
[01:52] <johnjacobjingerh> i thought perhaps it had something to do with my .vnc/xstartup config, but dont think so
[01:52] <CryDay> Yo guys, can smbdy explain why I have port 8080 after domain.org? So it looks like domain.org:8080/something
[01:52] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, what Im saying is that the other PC has the problem  not your laptop
[01:53]  * johnjacobjingerh smacks head
[01:53] <johnjacobjingerh> no kidding
[01:53] <johnjacobjingerh> i know it's a server side config i'm asking what might be the problem
[01:53] <blackshirt> cryday, proxies
[01:53] <johnjacobjingerh> i know my laptop doesnt have issues all i'm using is the viewer
 emm... what do you mean?
[01:54] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, try this if possible   create a new user on remote and login and see if the problem is still there
[01:56] <blackshirt> cryday, commonly that was proxy server or alternative http web services
 soo... I need to watch ngnix proxy configs... ok.
[01:57] <johnjacobjingerh> snark: i am not sure how to connect as a different user ith vnc
[01:57] <johnjacobjingerh> :-\
[01:58] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, you will need root account on REMOTE PC
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> i have root access
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> i have a user account
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> i have multple user accounts
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> i cant get my VNC client to connect as a different user
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> it connects to whatever is logged in
[01:59] <escott> johnjacobjingerh, thats how vnc works
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> yes I know that escott
[01:59] <johnjacobjingerh> snark doesnt seem to
[02:00] <johnjacobjingerh> he wants me to connect as a different user
[02:00] <johnjacobjingerh> I cant
[02:00] <johnjacobjingerh> it doesnt give me an option
[02:00] <escott> johnjacobjingerh, if you want to have some ability to use vnc with other login users you need to start vnc with the display manager
[02:00] <johnjacobjingerh> i dont i only want to have it with one user account
[02:00] <johnjacobjingerh> and i currently have it starting gnome
[02:00] <ahmad> how do i enable certain programs to start as a super user such as Oracle VM VirtualBox
[02:00] <Jordan_U> Arizona: OK, I'm back. Can you pastebin your /etc/default/grub by running "pastebinit /etc/default/grub"?
[02:00] <johnjacobjingerh> i can start that no problem, i can see my icons my window decorations
[02:01] <ahmad> instead of going to command line and typing sudo virtualbox
[02:01] <johnjacobjingerh> i cant see the menu bars or the panels or the side bar
[02:01] <escott> ahmad, you could mark them setuid, but its a security risk
[02:01] <johnjacobjingerh> so navigating is pretty difficult
[02:01] <johnjacobjingerh> i can also see the terminal window on the rmote machine
[02:02] <Jordan_U> ahmad: You should not need to run Virtualbox as root. Why do you think that you do?
[02:03] <ahmad> its wierd jordan i have /root/VirtualBox VMs and /home/ahmad/VirtualBox VMs
[02:03] <ahmad> i can not import the root created vm to normal virtualbox
[02:03] <Jordan_U> ahmad: You should never have run VirtualBox as root in the first place. Why did you?
[02:03] <ahmad> well i could move the file but is that safe?
[02:04] <johnjacobjingerh> yes if it's a vm file sure you can
[02:04] <johnjacobjingerh> but then u have to readd it
[02:04] <ahmad> you know i don't recall doing that, perhaps it was during installation i used sudo command
[02:04] <johnjacobjingerh> but again NEVER USE ROOT FOR VBOX
[02:04] <johnjacobjingerh> or anything for that matter
[02:04] <bkerensa> !justask | johnjacobjingerh
[02:04] <wastrel> could try chowning them
[02:04] <johnjacobjingerh> i didnt ask to ask???
[02:05] <ahmad> thnx, i got it :) makes sense now i am just going to copy files to my home folder, remove the root folder and import again
[02:05] <johnjacobjingerh> bkerensa i dont think u mean that to be to me do you?  cuz i never asked to ask a question
[02:05] <bkerensa> johnjacobjingerh: this is not a discussion channel so if you have a specific question you need help with then please ask on one line so as not to congest the channel
[02:05] <johnjacobjingerh> I did WTF
[02:05] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, ask the person who has root access to the remote pc to help you
[02:05] <johnjacobjingerh> i am asking questions
[02:05] <Cong> !ask >johnjacobjingerh
[02:05] <bazhang> johnjacobjingerh, no cursing here
[02:05] <johnjacobjingerh> Snark I have root access
[02:05] <johnjacobjingerh> it's my machine
[02:06] <bazhang> !enter | johnjacobjingerh
[02:06] <wilee-nilee> bkerensa, Nice presentation at puppetlabs on saturday. ;)
[02:07] <Cong> !ask >cong
[02:08] <Ashur> hello
[02:10] <Ashur> Hey guys, I have just tried to install ubuntu for the first time, and I think I messed up my hard drive. If someone would be willing to help me out it would be greatly appreciated!!
[02:10] <Jordan_U> Ashur: "Messed up" in what way?
[02:10] <snark> Asham, messed up how?
[02:11] <Ashur> well I used to have 3 partitions on my hard drive when I still had windows on it
[02:11] <Ashur> I was trying to format all 3 partitions and merge them together
[02:11] <XiaolinDraconis> told ya so
[02:12] <Ashur> iḿ installing from a bootable usb stick btw
[02:12] <bazhang> !behelpful | XiaolinDraconis
[02:12] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, What happened?
[02:12] <johnjacobjingerh> snark. to answer your question I have root access.. it is my desktop computer in a remote site... I am able to ssh into the machine, and I am able to VNC I am just not able to see the panels on my remote desktop... only the background the icons and folders on the background, and the terminal window.. I m able to right click and what not... it seems gnome panels and the sidebar are the only thing
[02:12] <johnjacobjingerh>  not showing up.... I will follow up with a screen shot in a sec
[02:12] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, well the problem isnt as first suspected
[02:12] <Asham> yes
[02:13]  * RedSeraph takes a seat.
[02:13] <Ashur> and well now I can't format my hdd anymore, keep getting an error dev/sda5 is in use while there is no such partitions(I think it's a partition)
[02:13] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, its still booting from sda1, even tho grub says to go to sdb1
[02:13] <tryingUbuntu> can I reinstall the os without loosing any files of mine
[02:13] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, im guessing thats a problem with the chainloader?
[02:13] <Jordan_U> Ashur: You wanted to delete all three partitions and install Ubuntu taking up all of the space on the drive, Is that correct?
[02:14] <Ashur> yeah
[02:14] <Ashur> that was my intention
[02:14] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Two identical windows have intrinsic problems for grub.
[02:14] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, The sdb1 have a bootflag?
 I fixed that shi with port... but now I´ve trouble: after forum/index.php? I´ve wwwRedirect. Looks like domain.org/forum/index.php?wwwRedirect. I don´t have any ideas
[02:14] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, lemme check i dont think so
[02:15] <Jordan_U> XiaolinDraconis: Having two filesystems whose Universally Unique Identifiers are the same (and thus not universally unique) is likely to cause many problems.
[02:15] <tryingUbuntu> can I reinstall the os without loosing any of my files
[02:15] <wilee-nilee> Jordan_U, Glad you are here you have a better grasp on this area. ;)
[02:15]  * RedSeraph raises her hand. "When some one gets a moment, I have a question about the nvidia problem with 12.10."
[02:15] <wilee-nilee> much better, lol'
[02:16] <Jordan_U> Ashur: What are you actually doing now, and what is the exact error message you see?
[02:16] <XiaolinDraconis> Jordan_U, yeah i didnt think of that, i assumed it would treat it logically and go for what i pointed at
[02:16] <bazhang> RedSeraph, just ask the channel
[02:16] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, and no my boot flag is on ubuntu
[02:16] <Cong> !ask > RedSeraph
[02:17] <johnjacobjingerh> where can I post screenshots for others to see?
[02:17] <Jordan_U> !screenshot | johnjacobjingerh
[02:17] <johnjacobjingerh> ah thanks
[02:17] <XiaolinDraconis> johnjacobjingerh, imgur.com
[02:17] <Ashur> umm, lets see, what i'm looking at right now, is disks I have my hdd selected and it has no volumes
[02:17] <RedSeraph> Okay, bazhang. I'm installing 12.10 from usb, and the installing works fine stock, but after rebooting, it has an error about unable to idle channel's one and two. My searchfu has only brought me to finding out the nvidia drivers have a package error.
[02:17] <Ashur> but I can still delete a partition
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Ashur: Do you know how to open a terminal window?
[02:18] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Ubuntu doesn't need it windows does, but as suggested that is only a start, you could unplug the sda, if it is a desktop, and if the sdb1 is good and you have run a update-grub it should boot with a flag.
[02:18] <RedSeraph> Thank you for the update, Ubottu and Cong.
[02:18] <Ashur> no, I don't actuall
[02:18] <Ashur> actually*
[02:18] <wilee-nilee> not sure where the ubuntu is though
[02:18] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, not trying to be rude but its not really needed (the screenshot) but if you must ,try pasteimg.org
[02:18] <Ashur> nvm, found it
[02:18] <Ashur> XD
[02:18] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, i need ubuntu to have the flag, thats where grub is, and that chainloads windows
[02:19] <RedSeraph> My question is, how do I side load or even work around the driver error with installing. I can't bring up terminal and the error message just repeats.
[02:19] <johnjacobjingerh> snark:  http://imagebin.org/232932
[02:19] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Ubuntu does not need a bootflag.
[02:19] <RedSeraph> *? not .
[02:19] <Ashur> have the terminal open
[02:19] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, thats the way its been forever now
[02:19] <johnjacobjingerh> snark: why do you recommend I get a root user then? I am the only user on the system.. there is no admin.. i have created a user account like you said, but i cant tell vnc to connect as a different user
[02:20] <Jordan_U> Ashur: OK. Please run "sudo parted -l" and copy and paste the output to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com and post a link to that output here.
[02:20] <johnjacobjingerh> i should mention this is a fresh ubuntu install i am working with
[02:20] <XiaolinDraconis> Jordan_U, if i put a hidden flag o sda1 would that help?
[02:20] <Jordan_U> XiaolinDraconis: No.
[02:21] <johnjacobjingerh> snark: i followed this guide to the letter:  http://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=Ubuntu_11.04&p=x&f=2   granted it is for 11.04 not 12.04
[02:21] <Ashur> here you go
[02:21] <Ashur> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1299121/
[02:21] <XiaolinDraconis> Jordan_U, ok so i should try to make an img of it and store it on another partition then delete.. right?
[02:21] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Here is a screenshot of my gparted. http://imagebin.org/232933
[02:22] <Seven_Six_Two> exit
[02:22] <Jordan_U> XiaolinDraconis: That sounds like a good plan, yes.
[02:22] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, but the real question is, where did u install grub? to sda1 or sda3?
[02:22] <wilee-nilee> XiaolinDraconis, Grub is in all the linux installs and the mbr.
[02:23] <XiaolinDraconis> wilee-nilee, and being in the mbr is why it works for you imguessing
[02:23] <XiaolinDraconis> sorry sticky keyboard... wish i was home right now
[02:23] <Ashur> btw, i'm running the usb bootable from the 1tb hdd, I want to format the 320GB and use that for Ubuntu
[02:23] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, do you have a bottom panel inside the remote pc?
[02:23] <johnjacobjingerh> nope
[02:24] <samurai2> dr_willis : ic. I'll try it
[02:24] <johnjacobjingerh> no panels at all.. i can see windows, icons, and terminal on remote screen just not the panels or the sidebar
[02:24] <nimda28> anyone has experience with renders farms with DRQueue ??
[02:24] <johnjacobjingerh> they do show up on the physical machine tho
[02:25] <XiaolinDraconis> what should i use to make this img of sda1?
[02:25] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, can you right click on the remote ?
[02:25] <johnjacobjingerh> yep
[02:25] <johnjacobjingerh> that works..
[02:26] <Jordan_U> Ashur: Do you have any idea why there is a device called /dev/mapper/ubuntu-root which appears to be related to some sort of RAID?
[02:27] <onnysugara> hi all
[02:27] <nimda28> render cluster , anyone??
[02:27] <onnysugara> pls help me using ubuntu 12.04 lte
[02:27] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, so try to find the settings for the desktop
[02:27] <onnysugara> i want to sync iphone 5 on ubuntu.
[02:27] <XiaolinDraconis> looks like clonezilla will work
[02:27] <onnysugara> i want sync, application, photo
[02:28] <XiaolinDraconis> *crosses fingers*
[02:28] <xangua> onnysugara: are you using ubuntu 12.10 ¿
[02:28] <johnjacobjingerh> snark... for the display or for the desktop (like where i can select backgrounds)
[02:29] <RedSeraph-> I seem to be having other troubles with my machines.
[02:29] <cfhowlett> onnysugara: No can do.  Yet.  MAYBE later.
[02:29] <onnysugara> cfhowlett  tnx for the info
[02:29] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, for the desktop
[02:29] <machicola> does almost every dist of linux use x windows?
[02:29] <machicola> for the window system
[02:30] <machicola> (if that question even makes sense)
[02:30] <dniMretsaM> machicola: yes.
[02:30] <johnjacobjingerh> snark: ok... i can change backgrounds lol... and launcher icon sizes (which i maxed out to see if they appear... they dont)
[02:30] <Ashur> is that a ubuntu install? because I already had tried to install ubuntu, but the first time I got an error at the end, because I didnt format the hdd correctly, and It told me to restart, after the pc restarted, I got a black screen and nothing happened. after which I rebooted and started the bootable usb stick again, iḿ working from try ubuntu at the moment
[02:31] <johnjacobjingerh> i did however find i cant get into display settings RANDR too old or something like that
[02:31] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, forget about RANDR  is not what you need!
[02:32] <johnjacobjingerh> ok well the only other option is appearance which lets me change the desktopbackground and icon sizes, but
[02:32] <onnysugara> xangua.   i use ubuntu 12.04 lte
[02:32] <johnjacobjingerh> errr,,, but nothing else
[02:32] <johnjacobjingerh> onnysugara, LTS*?
[02:33] <xangua> onnysugara: that only supports until iOS 4.2
[02:33] <cg2916> Apt-get is stuck, returns this error: http://pastebin.com/DTbwdT5g
[02:33] <dniMretsaM> machicola: There is also Wayland, but pretty much nothing uses it yet. Except RebeccaBlackOS, which most people use to test Wayland.
[02:33] <johnjacobjingerh> cg2916, u have something else using it
[02:33] <onnysugara> johnjacobjingerh  yes lts.  tnx for correction lol
[02:33] <dwarder> what can i do with that PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/expect.so' - libexpect.so.<IP_ADDRESS>: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0

[02:33] <dwarder> "
[02:33] <dwarder> sorry
[02:34] <Ashur> the error I got was, installing boot loader failed I think
[02:34] <johnjacobjingerh> cg2916, do u have apt-get running elsewhere?
[02:34] <cg2916> johnjacobjungerh, how do i find what's using it
[02:34] <onnysugara> xangua i use ios 6.  lol
[02:34] <johnjacobjingerh> well do u have anything open like the package manager
[02:34] <cg2916> johnjacobjungerh, apt-get is not on System Monitor
[02:34] <johnjacobjingerh> ooooo wth just happened....   after the last upgrade I cant open my second partition... says unable to mount 893GB partition
[02:34] <dwarder> i guess i forgot to run apt-get update befor my: sudo apt-get install curl libcurl3  php5-curl
[02:34] <machicola> RebeccaBlackOS, lol
[02:34] <dwarder> is there a way to fix it?
[02:34] <johnjacobjingerh> cg2916, but do u have the package manager open?
[02:34] <Ashur> thnx for the help btw,
[02:35] <cg2916> johnjacobjungerh, no
[02:35] <johnjacobjingerh> well... i guess to be certain, log off then on again
[02:35] <snark> cg2916,     johnjacobjingerh  is right
[02:35] <xangua> onnysugara: anyways, if you were using ubuntu 12.10 wich is supposed to work with it, after a few months when a new version of iOS is released, the support will break...is a never ending story
[02:35] <cg2916> snark, ok
[02:35] <ToyImp> I just installed sendmail by apt-get. I am testing out the php mail function. Should I restart the apache server or my linux box for it to work? the php page is hanging atm
[02:35] <johnjacobjingerh> yes i have been around the block with linux a few times... tho i'd have to say this is my first time with ubuntu since like 9.04 or something crazy
[02:36] <ToyImp> nevermind. it just took a while to send for some reason. :\
[02:36] <johnjacobjingerh> also my first time using a GUI in eons
[02:36] <cg2916> snark, any change this totally blow up in my face when i relog? i've become scared to restart because of bad experiences
[02:36] <johnjacobjingerh> lol
[02:36]  * RedSeraph continues the poke the zombie-tower.
[02:36] <johnjacobjingerh> cg2916, did u change something recently??
[02:36] <alone> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njos57IJf-0

[02:37] <cg2916> johnjacobjungerh, installed virtualbox, then tried to uninstall
[02:37] <johnjacobjingerh> oh prob fine
[02:37] <cg2916> snark, so i'll be fine?
[02:37] <johnjacobjingerh> that probably what locked up apt-get too... maybe it was still uninstalling while you were trying to install
[02:37] <Ashur> Jordan U still there?
[02:38] <cg2916> johnjacobjungerh, it got stuck on "Stopped Virtualbox kernel modules" this has happened before and i got out, i can't remember how thugh
[02:38] <cg2916> though*
[02:40] <dwarder> can anyone help me with this "PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/expect.so' - libexpect.so.<IP_ADDRESS>: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0"
[02:40] <dwarder> i have this /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/expect.so file
[02:41] <johnjacobjingerh> cg2916, i gotta install virtualbox right now myself.. i'll let you knowhow it goes
[02:41] <cg2916> johnjacobjungerh, this is the second time it's broken. i obviously don't learn. i'd be on windows if it weren't for my own stupidity.
[02:41] <trism> RedSeraph: looks like a bunch of people are having the problem with nouveau crashing if I understood your issue, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2065876&page=2 sounds similar and suggests using nomodeset and then installing the proprietary nvidia drivers
[02:42] <dwarder> why cann't i load this file
[02:42] <dwarder> it is on the place
[02:42] <dwarder> anyone?
[02:42] <RedSeraph> I have been trying that, along with disabling splash, trism. The problem is that terminal doesn't start up properly when trying to boot after installed.
[02:42] <wastrel> dwarder: you probably need to install libexpect
[02:42] <codefyre> dwarder , did u try reinstalling it ?
[02:42] <trism> RedSeraph: with nomodeset?
[02:43] <codefyre> dwarder, apt-get remove libexpect-php5 ; apt-get install libexpect-php5
[02:43] <RedSeraph> Yes, trism.
[02:43] <dwarder> 5
[02:44] <RedSeraph> It's my little brother's black box that some how manages to run. I have no idea how a single 1.6 core with 1gb of ram was able to run Borderlands 2 and skyrim, but it randomly died yesterday.
[02:44] <dwarder> codefyre: didn't help
[02:44] <dwarder> codefyre: same error
[02:45] <RedSeraph> Anyways, to the point the original install with splash removed and nomodeset didn't work.
[02:45] <codefyre> dwarder, output of dpkg -l libexpect-php5 ?
[02:45] <bastion> Hello all
[02:46] <dwarder> codefyre: http://pastebin.com/JcdH6Svi
[02:46] <trism> RedSeraph: didn't work as in didn't boot at all, or you get no desktop after the boot, because I'm seeing bugs about that
[02:46] <trism> RedSeraph: after log in that is

[02:47] <bastion> Does anyone know why ubuntu 12.10 corrupts the SD card on Pandaboard ARM? After a clean install of 12.04 and a do-release-upgrade after 2 reboots the system no longer boots and the root partition is corrupted
[02:47] <dwarder> codefyre: http://pastebin.com/GUTF0U6g
[02:48] <codefyre> dwarder , is this expect.so file actually loaded from the php ini files ? check /etc/php5/conf.d
[02:48] <Ashur> jordan U, still there bro? was messing with that last disk and it crashed on me...
[02:48] <wilee-nilee> bastion, Have you tried just installing 12.10, that information really means nothing.
[02:48] <dwarder> codefyre:  i have expect.ini in this dir with: extension=expect.so
[02:50] <bastion> wilee-nilee: yes, but there is no preinstalled image for 12.10 on arm and I haven't found any install instructions for this version thus far
[02:51] <codefyre> dwarder , are there any other extension files loaded , do they load correctly , are they also installed in the same path as expect.so ?

[02:52] <Ashur> anyway, trying to install again... got that last disk deleted, and formated my hdd and made a new partition, hope it will work this time

[02:53] <blackshirt> ashur, good luck
[02:53] <salvadorfl> does somebody knows how to fix it?
[02:53] <Ashur> thnx:p

[02:54] <wilee-nilee> bastion, I'm not familiar with ARM, but I found this not sure if it is relevant. http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2012/10/18/ubuntu-12-10-quantal-quetzal-released/

[02:56] <SuperMiguel> so i have a gyro that gives me x and y... how do i get the angle from it??
[02:56] <crimsonmane> salvadorfl: file a bug report. it's getting to be a common problem. maybe go back to 12.04
[02:57] <dwarder> codefyre: will try to remove expect in a radical way
[02:57] <bjrohan> What is the difference in directory color in bash? Some directories are merely a blue color, others are green (same as text) but highlighted
[02:57] <wilee-nilee> bastion, With 12.10 they have put more on the main cd, and stopped others like the alternative have you investigated that what you want is probably available, but just in a different place.

[02:59] <huixhui> 恩
[02:59] <bastion> wilee-nilee: actually the only images i can use for arm are the OMAP4 installs, but since 12.10 they no longer ship "pre-installed" images; where you just flash them to the SD and when you run them they autopartition and set the path for clean install
[02:59] <bastion> since they only have install images now, i have no idea if i have to partition the SD myself, or set up something else
[02:59] <wilee-nilee> bastion, Ah.
[02:59] <huixhui> think you ubottu
[03:00] <Radikal08> Help! I am trying to install aircrack-ng, because I have obviously forgot my password for my router................................... I getn an error message saying something about iw:i386, so I found a link from googel to download the *.deb version, and it starts up Ubuntu Software Centre to download aircrack-ng, but i get the same error message "cannot install "iw:i386". Anyone know why?
[03:00] <cfhowlett> !aircrack|Radikal08:
[03:00] <Radikal08> thats what im trying to install!
[03:00] <wilee-nilee> Radikal08, Why not use the reset button on the router?
[03:00] <cfhowlett> Radikal08: aircrack is not supported on this channel
[03:00] <codefyre> Radikal08 , can't u just reset the router
[03:00] <crimsonmane> Radikal08: if you hard-wire to the router, you don't need a password. at that time you can also set a new password.
[03:00] <dwarder> codefyre: do i need expect php module?
[03:00] <RedSeraph> trism: Bug 1043518 is exactly the problem I am having. I am going through the list to see what their work around is.
[03:01] <crimsonmane> if you insist on aircrack then you're trying to break into someone else router that is not your own. don't be a liar, just be honest.
[03:01] <woot-0854> I used aircrack to learn with
[03:01] <Radikal08> Okay fine. I am not trying to connect to my own router but to a neighbours router which have a faster broadband connection so i can play my games on PS 3 online without any lag.
[03:01] <Radikal08> I was trying to download aircrack, and thats where my problem is
[03:01] <codefyre> dwarder , thats upto you, what are you doing ?
[03:01] <Radikal08> but if it isnt supported here, i respect that and will look elsewhere
[03:01] <RedSeraph> trism: I am also running the 32bit Ubuntu 12.10, not the 64.
[03:02] <cfhowlett> Radikal08: wrong channel.  Good luck, though.
[03:02] <codefyre> dwarder , if you don't need it , than you can just comment it out in the ini file
[03:03] <Radikal08> okay can someone help me t ofind a channel to aircrack? Because aircrack is invite only, i
[03:03] <Radikal08> oh crap i wasnt supposed to send it
[03:03] <Radikal08> because i knwo its not spportred here, but im desperate... my landlord is giving me a 3Mbits internet shared with 12 people and i cant stand it anymroe
[03:03] <trism> RedSeraph: I did notice the bug earlier, though I didn't mention it because it is supposed to be fixed in the kernel in 12.10 when it was released (though reading the comments now other people are still having problems)
[03:03] <cfhowlett> Radikal08: see the aircrack page for aircrack support
[03:03] <Radikal08> i really need to use my neighbours broadband.. does anyone know where on irc i can gt help?
[03:03] <Radikal08> oka
[03:03] <Radikal08> ty  cfhowlett
[03:04] <cfhowlett> Radikal08: good luck
[03:04] <dwarder> codefyre: thanks
[03:04] <crimsonmane> Radikal08: sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
[03:04] <codefyre> dwarder, so you weren't using expect ?
[03:04] <Radikal08> crimsonmane: it doesnt work
[03:04] <crimsonmane> tell me more
[03:04] <RedSeraph> trism: Ideas?
[03:04] <dwarder> codefyre: i used to, a long time ago, so i forgot
[03:05] <woot-0854> ot- I cant connect to hollywood.ca.us.undernet.org where should I take this issue?
[03:05] <codefyre> dwarder , ohh ok
[03:05] <Radikal08> its wining about this.....
[03:05] <Radikal08> crimsonmane: Package aircrack-ng is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[03:05] <Radikal08> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[03:05] <Radikal08> is only available from another source
[03:05] <Radikal08> However the following packages replace it:
[03:05] <Radikal08>   iw:i386 iw
[03:05] <Radikal08> E: Package 'aircrack-ng' has no installation candidate
[03:05] <FloodBot1> Radikal08: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:06] <crimsonmane> sudo apt-cache search aircrack
[03:08] <wastrel> you don't need sudo for apt-cache search
[03:08] <crimsonmane> w/e it doesn't show up anyhow

[03:09] <trism> RedSeraph: not really sure unfortunately, if you could ctrl+alt+f1 or f2, I would try installing nvidia-current (plus the linux-headers if they aren't already installed) and see if you can boot
[03:10] <c_smith> Hi, I installed Cinnamon and am looking to get rid of Unity (I never use it) in Ubuntu 12.10, what packages would I need to remove?
[03:10] <RedSeraph> I am unable to open terminal, trism. I get the _ and no input gets put in. Either with CAf1 or f2.
[03:11] <Guest21342> hi
[03:12] <Guest21342> are people here using ubuntu?
[03:12] <cfhowlett> Guest21342: yes.
[03:12] <Guest21342> wo
[03:12] <Guest21342> cool
[03:12] <c_smith> Guest21342, look at the topic and take a guess.
[03:12] <Guest21342> &4yea right dude
[03:12] <crimsonmane> c_smith: if you're going to use cinnamon, and want to remove unity, it's probably just better that you install Linux Mint who created Cinnamon in the first place.
[03:12] <Guest21342> you think i don't know that
[03:12] <cfhowlett> Guest21342: this is the support channel.  Have you an issue you need help with.
[03:12] <cfhowlett> ?
[03:12] <trism> RedSeraph: do you know what nvidia card you have?
[03:13] <woot-0854> I use ubuntu to fix pc's its great :)
[03:13] <Guest21342> well, not that i know of... just testing out the irc program
[03:13] <c_smith> crimsonmane, I actually am looking to give the Ubuntu base an overhaul (kinda proof-of-concept and also so I know I can do this)
[03:13] <cfhowlett> Guest21342: please see #ubuntu-offtopic for general chitchat.  Thank you.
[03:13] <myitsh524> wana buy bank logins
[03:13] <c_smith> and I'm not too fond of some of the changes Mint has made to Ubuntu
[03:14] <RedSeraph> trism: 7800GT
[03:14] <crimsonmane> c_smith: i understand. best of luck to you. i personally don't think you should bother re-inventing the wheel
[03:14] <c_smith> oh, most of my changes will mainly be aesthetic.
[03:14] <cfhowlett> myitsh524: you are REALLY in the wrong channel.
[03:14] <c_smith> but thanks, crimsonmane
[03:14] <RedSeraph> trism: That, unfortuantely, is not a typo.
[03:15] <myitsh524> wich chanel i shoud go on
[03:15] <RedSeraph> 'Wanna buy bank logins'? No! It's 'Vendor buy the bank guards!'
[03:15] <c_smith> myitsh524, jail, that's illegal.
[03:15] <cfhowlett> myitsh524: #whitecollarcrime or #fbi
[03:16]  * RedSeraph sighs. "Kids these days."
[03:16] <BlackBsd> lol
[03:17] <bastion> lol
[03:17] <c_smith> cfhowlett, personally, I wouldn't have helped the dude.
[03:17] <cfhowlett> c_smith: better to send him on his way than have him foul up this channel IMHO
[03:17] <BlackBsd> so did kopete get replaced by some communications tool
[03:18] <trism> RedSeraph: I'll see if I notice anything, but unfortunately I am kind of out of ideas...did you try the recovery option in grub?
[03:18] <c_smith> cfhowlett, touche
[03:18] <RedSeraph> I did not.
[03:18] <RedSeraph> trism: how do I get to that from start up?
[03:19] <trism> RedSeraph: from grub select the Advanced Options item, which should take you to other kernels, one of them says (recovery mode)
[03:19] <crimsonmane> !kopete
[03:19] <RedSeraph> trism: How do I pull up the Grub?
[03:20] <crimsonmane> hold shift while booting to get to the grub menu
[03:20] <trism> RedSeraph: how did you add nomodeset without getting to grub?
[03:21] <RedSeraph> Using the liveusb. When the little man with the kyboard showed up, pressed E, selected english, then f6 on 'Install Linux'
[03:21] <trism> RedSeraph: but I thought you said you already installed?
[03:21] <crimsonmane> RedSeraph: if linux is already installed, reboot and hold SHIFT to get to grub menu
[03:22] <RedSeraph> Yes, the grub is now up. 'Ubuntu' 'Advanced Options' and two memory tests.
[03:22] <RedSeraph> Loading the recovery kernel.
[03:22] <trism> RedSeraph: I before trying the recovery option, I would try editing the item, and adding nomodeset
[03:22] <crimsonmane> recovery means boot to command line
[03:23] <RedSeraph> trism: I apologize. Let me get back the starting grub menu.
[03:23] <trism> RedSeraph: no problem, I did suggest to do that but I thought you had already tried nomodeset from grub
[03:24] <trism> RedSeraph: if recovery did work, at least you'll be able to get a command line if nomodeset doesn't work
[03:24] <RedSeraph> Okay, I have 'Setparams 'Ubuntu'' followed by 'recordfail' and a list of text but I see no 'nomodset'
[03:25] <trism> RedSeraph: do you see quiet and splash?
[03:25] <trism> RedSeraph: you need to add it to the end of the vmlinux line
[03:25] <NoobTux> OerHeks, can i pm u bro?
[03:26] <RedSeraph> There is a 'quiet splash' at the end of the 'vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic...' line. After it is '$vt_handoff initrd'
[03:27] <trism> RedSeraph: right after quiet splash I would add nomodeset
[03:27] <trism> RedSeraph: then I think ctrl+x to boot (it'll tell you at the bottom though)
[03:27] <RedSeraph> Added, Pressing Control+X. (Also says f10 is an option)
[03:28] <trism> RedSeraph: good luck!

[03:30] <Guest9352> ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10 after installing no sound
[03:30] <RedSeraph> Errr... trism, I think I spoke too soon. Had a pop up 'System program problem detected'
[03:30] <SolarisBoy> py_can: it's not installed but it seems you tried to install it but it failed
[03:30] <DaemonicApathy> py_can: Have you tried just "sudo apt-get purge mysql-server"?
[03:30] <py_can> DaemonicApathy: will try
[03:30] <Jimster480-Lapto> i have 50000 ping
[03:30] <Jimster480-Lapto> NICE
[03:31] <SolarisBoy> apt-get install -f even
[03:31] <DaemonicApathy> Fair point, solarisBoy.
[03:31] <py_can> DaemonicApathy: http://pastebin.com/qGvzS3ER
[03:31] <py_can> SolarisBoy: ok sec
[03:31] <NoobTux> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299064/ <--- pls help i'm using ubuntu 10.04 32bit here thanx
[03:32] <RedSeraph> 'Sorry, Ubuntu 12.10 has experienced an internal error' and shwos the executable path of /usr/bin/Xorg
[03:32] <py_can> SolarisBoy: loads of errors. something is really messed up.
[03:32] <SolarisBoy> RedSeraph: its possible the ppa is not available for lucid now
[03:32] <orlok> I am installing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - In the installer, it shows there being 7 steps
[03:33] <orlok> However, it jumps from Step 5 (Account details) to Step 7 (Ready to Install)
[03:33] <DaemonicApathy> Why 10.04, orlok?
[03:33] <SolarisBoy> py_can: the error appears to be in the text you posted.
[03:33] <SolarisBoy> py_can: Fatal error: Can't change to run as user 'mysql' ;  Please check that the user  exists!
[03:33] <trism> RedSeraph: that could very well be from the crashes on earlier boots
[03:33] <orlok> DaemonicApathy: Because we have Ubuntu 10.04 listed in out approved products list as required by PCI-DSS requirements
[03:33] <crimsonmane> orlok: there is an "alternate installer" that works well if the normal installer has issues.
[03:33] <SolarisBoy> py_can: from where is the source for that package you are installing? is it ubuntu standard repos?
[03:33] <py_can> SolarisBoy: note: I'm trying to completly remove mysql
[03:33] <xangua> NoobTux: that repository no longer exist
[03:33] <py_can> SolarisBoy: yes
[03:33] <SolarisBoy> py_can: i know
[03:33] <trism> RedSeraph: might want to take a quick look at it and submit a bug report so that the devs can take a look
[03:34] <orlok> crimsonmane:  it installs fine, its just i'm documenting each step for our auditors, and wondering where the hell step 6 is :)
[03:34] <SolarisBoy> py_can: but it failed to install initially it is 'queued'
[03:34] <py_can> SolarisBoy: I see
[03:34] <SolarisBoy> py_can: if you observe the message it says "mysql not installed so not removing" then it goes on to process the stuff it couldn't before
[03:35] <orlok> i'm sure it wont matter, but i just started the install again as i thought i clicked through a step without thinking, and nope. No step 6.
[03:35] <SolarisBoy> py_can: can you do this dpkg -l '*mysql*'
[03:36] <py_can> SolarisBoy: http://pastebin.com/UikYQkMt
[03:39] <RedSeraph> trism: bug report sent. SolarisBoy ppa is up and running, it says. Installing the nvidia_current module with success so far. Thank you guys so much for this.
[03:39] <py_can> SolarisBoy: 2 hours ago mysql was acting weird, couldnt grant priv. to a newly created user. So after a while i decided to reinstall mysql. And then apt-get remove went bonkers, i tried manually removing some directories and the mysql user, now it is royally messed up.
[03:39] <ahmad> i am having a problem with ubuntu 12.10 server-amd64 edition
[03:40] <ahmad> during installation on a VM it says no disk drive was detected
[03:40] <DaemonicApathy> Did you mount a virtual drive, ahmad?
[03:40] <SolarisBoy> py_can: so uninstall mysql-server-5.5
[03:40] <ahmad> yes
[03:41] <SolarisBoy> or you can also do sudo apt-get purge mysql-* and just start over
[03:41] <DaemonicApathy> ahmad: So you should have a hard drive and the image both mounted as separate drives, yes?
[03:41] <RedSeraph> ....So aside from it thinking it is a laptop, we're alright. Seems to be running like sludge, but still. I can work with that.
[03:41] <ahmad> yes DaemonicApathy
[03:41] <py_can> SolarisBoy: looks clean now
[03:41] <SolarisBoy> py_can: right - there are post and pre scripts that execute when packages are installed - doing steps manually before asking the apt system or others will generally mess up stuff - not badly but yea
[03:41] <DaemonicApathy> ahmad: Which VM software are you using?
[03:41] <SolarisBoy> py_can: cool
[03:41] <ahmad> one is a DATA controller other IDE
[03:42] <ahmad> SATA*
[03:42] <py_can> SolarisBoy: thx!
[03:42] <ahmad> 4.2.2
[03:42] <ahmad> oh VirtualBox
[03:42] <SolarisBoy> it listed mysql-server-5.5 as iF so it seemed it was in a partial state
[03:42] <SolarisBoy> py_can: sure
[03:43] <SolarisBoy> sata and pata technically afaik
[03:43] <DaemonicApathy> ahmad: I'm going to see if I can recreate. Meanwhile, maybe someone here knows something off the top of their head.
[03:43] <DaemonicApathy> IDE = PATA
[03:43] <DaemonicApathy> Same difference.
[03:43] <ahmad> DaemonicApathy, I am going to PM you VBoxManage code
[03:44] <DaemonicApathy> k
[03:44] <SolarisBoy> ide = sata too

I want to install Ubuntu in RAID 0 on my machine as that's how it came configured (two 128GB mSATA drives). But I'm not quite sure how to install it correctly.

[03:44] <jjkinas> I used to use MyUnity to change the size of the unity bar, but this does not work in 12.10... Is there another way to change the bar size ?
[03:45] <Ramtron> Anyone here know where the ubuntu task manager is?
[03:45] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: top
[03:45] <Ramtron> top?
[03:45] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: the command would likely be top that most fits what you requested
[03:45] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: type

[03:49] <gabrieluk> how should i install libphp-phpmailer on ubuntu 10.04?
[03:49] <foobArrr> I have problems with distorted sound and echo with vlc. Often sound is only distorted for the first few seconds or a minute of a file, then sound is normal. When I skip to the next song/video, sound is distorted again. Also volume levels are strange: some videos are loud, some are quiet, in mplayer they have similar volume. I tried recording the distortions with Sound Recorder, but I can't get that to work.
[03:49] <Ramtron> I basically just have no clue why it's lagging
 yes help me please
[03:50] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: you can try to use top/ps but its important to sort them properly if you want any detail - that would be a start

[03:51] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: when you open top type '?' and look at the sorting options, mainly, memory (rss), cpu usage, etc also look at the threads and look at the multi cpup view
[03:51] <aeon-ltd> foobArrr: do you have the dynamic range compressor on? (regarding the vol problems)
[03:51] <foobArrr> aeon-ltd: what's that and where do I check?
[03:51] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: if your using ps use the --sort option to see whats hogging, try pcpu, and rss sorts the same
[03:51] <Ramtron> could be cinnamon
[03:51] <Ramtron> is that something that would make it lag?
[03:52] <aeon-ltd> foobArrr: it's on audio effects
[03:52] <Ramtron> using 260 mb
[03:52] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: 260mb of what? rss? it really depends on what its doing - what your system is doing, etc - so need more info
[03:52] <SolarisBoy> i've seen browsers use more than that and work fine
[03:53] <SolarisBoy> but more importantly is what is it doing? read/write? networking? etc you need to get a good view of that
[03:53] <foobArrr> aeon-ltd: dynamic range compressor is off
[03:53] <Ramtron> @SolarisBoy is it possible to give my GFX card virtual ram? 249mb of "RES" with a %CPU of 65, the browser is using the same with no CPU %
[03:53] <q0_0p> how do i remove email notifier in ubuntu 12.10?
[03:54] <q0_0p> it says thunderbird contacts and compose new message
[03:54] <aeon-ltd> foobArrr: ok. i'm sorry but i have no more ideas for now
[03:54] <SolarisBoy> that sounds like its hogging - you can do that - i would strace whatever process is doing that for a better understanding on what its working on
[03:55] <foobArrr> aeon-ltd: k. thanks anyway.
[03:55] <Ramtron> Any way to lower the priority of cinnamon?
[03:55] <ObsidianBlade>  I have an MSI GT70 0NE 276US laptop. I want to install Ubuntu in RAID 0 on my machine as that's how it came configured (two 128GB mSATA drives). But I'm not quite sure how to install it correctly. This is what it looks like in the installer http://imageshack.us/f/823/photoalve.jpg/
[03:55] <SolarisBoy> you can renice it Ramtron
[03:55] <Ramtron> permanently?
[03:55] <Ramtron> How?
[03:55] <SolarisBoy> you can edit the startup for it to prepend renice Ramtron
[03:56] <Ramtron> What is Renice?
[03:56] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: assuming your sure this will help 'man renice' and give some info on what the current prio value is
[03:56] <Ramtron> PR? is 20
[03:58] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: bring it lower
[03:58] <Ramtron> How's that?
[03:59] <SolarisBoy> renice <prio> <pid> so put the lower number and a space and the process id
[03:59] <Ramtron> What number do you suggest?
[03:59] <Jordan_U> SolarisBoy: Lowering a processes niceness increases its tendency to take CPU from other processea, is that what you want?
[04:00] <Ramtron> No
[04:00] <SolarisBoy> oh my bad increase it
[04:00] <SolarisBoy> =)
[04:00] <Ramtron> Increase to what?
[04:00] <SolarisBoy> something higher than 20 - what are the prios of the other processes on the system?
[04:00] <Jordan_U> SolarisBoy: 20 is as high as niceness goes.
[04:00] <Ramtron> so renice 30 1567 ? everything is 20 or 0
[04:00] <Ramtron> or RT
[04:01] <snark> ObsidianBlade, do you plan on keeping the existing partitions?
[04:01] <ObsidianBlade> Nah it's not necessary
[04:01] <ObsidianBlade> Especially if it simplifies the process, snark.
[04:01] <alone> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299227/
[04:01] <SolarisBoy> hmm - then revert to checking what the program is doing when its taking up the cpu like that
[04:01] <alone> surprise ;D
[04:01] <snark> ObsidianBlade, it sure does!
[04:01] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: whats the game?
[04:01] <ObsidianBlade> :D
[04:01] <Ramtron> Minecraft
[04:02] <Ramtron> Cinnamon is a theme for gnome
[04:02] <Ramtron> So I'm running it all the time
[04:02] <snark> ObsidianBlade, so you have done you final backup?
[04:02] <ObsidianBlade> Yeah everything is saved elsewhere
[04:02] <ObsidianBlade> The only thing left to do is the actual set up
[04:03] <SolarisBoy> Ramtron: which process is causing the load again?
[04:03] <Ramtron> Cinnamon
[04:03] <SolarisBoy> hmm
[04:03] <SolarisBoy> is that a process?
[04:04] <donnie> Is there any way that I can share a connection with a cell phone without any cables?
[04:04] <snark> ObsidianBlade, Im not sure if the install cd can create a raid partition
[04:04] <SolarisBoy> donnie: what type of phone?
[04:05] <ObsidianBlade> Snark....hmmm that would suck. How would someone with a RAID get it to work then?
[04:05] <SolarisBoy> you can tether wirelessly on some androids
[04:05] <donnie> T-Mobile Exhibit 4g.
[04:06] <snark> ObsidianBlade, was the previous system Windoz?
[04:06] <ObsidianBlade> Aye. I'm running 8 on it as we speak
[04:06] <donnie> When I tethered them together, it tried to use the phone as the access point. I want to use the laptop as the access point.
[04:07] <donnie> I can pick up the main connection but the phone cannot.
[04:08] <donnie> I am using Xubuntu 12.10
[04:08] <snark> ObsidianBlade, does the laptop have a raid card in it?
[04:09] <ObsidianBlade> Snark, this is a new laptop and my first experience with RAID. I'm not sure how to tell if it does or not.
[04:09] <donnie> Sorry, I am not a cell phone user. lol... I'm trying to help someone else.
[04:09] <snark> ObsidianBlade, np Ill just google it !
[04:10] <ethan_> laptop with RAID ?
[04:11] <ethan_> I've nerver heared about that
[04:13] <snark>
[04:14] <snark> ObsidianBlade, ok so it dosent have a raid card
[04:14] <ObsidianBlade> Alright. I was trying to find that out myself and still wasn't sure.
[04:14] <ObsidianBlade> So what's that mean from here snark?
[04:15] <andrew_> !ubottu
[04:15] <donnie> Well, i'm signing off. Thanks for your help everyone!
[04:15] <rozmuq> https://twitter.com/rozmuq/status/260594566774812672
[04:15] <snark> ObsidianBlade, all it really means is that you need to setup the raid first   then it is a sinch to install ubuntu
[04:16] <ObsidianBlade> Snark, that's good to hear. If you saw that pic when I put up my first message in here, it looked a bit confusing. To me anyway
[04:17] <denebeim> I'm getting a getcwd failure on an automounted NFS partition when the partition being mounted is local to the host.
[04:17] <denebeim> if that makes sense
[04:18] <denebeim> I've been googling around, but so far no luck.
[04:18] <SolarisBoy> denebeim: your saying the nfs is shared to itself?
[04:19] <denebeim> Yeah, it's actually my home directory, it get shared nfs regardless of what machine I'm logged into
[04:19] <denebeim> I'm only seeing the behavior when I ssh into the machien the disk is local to.
[04:20] <denebeim> specifically the /home partition is automounted to /nethome
[04:20] <denebeim> after I log in most things work, although some scripts fail as does trn
[04:21] <andrew_> i need some assistance with my graphics firmware as ubuntu details app tells me its unknown
[04:21] <ObsidianBlade> So Snark, how do I proceed?
[04:22] <denebeim> oh also this just started a few days ago, I'm not sure when, but less than a week ago.  presumably it's caused by some package that was updated.
[04:22] <snark> ObsidianBlade, you could start here http://www.devil-linux.org/documentation/1.0.x/ch01s05.html
[04:23] <denebeim> the configuration files fstab, nfs, auto.home, have not been modified since Jun '11
[04:23] <lwizardl> is there a way to actually list all directories and the files in them? like dir > output.txt
[04:24] <wastrel> lwizardl: find
[04:24] <denebeim> lwisardl you probably want to investigate the 'find' command
[04:24] <snark> lwizardl, try   ls -l
[04:24] <SolarisBoy> ls -R
[04:25] <snark> lwizardl, or try   ls -l > mylist.txt
[04:25] <denebeim> SolarisBoy, snark, it depends on what he's looking for.  ls's output is crappy if you're writing a script.  Find is much better since it gives the full path on each file
[04:26] <SolarisBoy> denebeim: the output can be adjusted - find isn't really for that - but if you must you can add -1 and get ls to print in a column
[04:26] <KM0201> is there a way to run rsync in reverse?  forinstance, i have a rsync job that backs up "data" to "databackup"(which is on another drive)... lets say the drive with "data" fails, is there a way to make rsync "reverse"... where it would essentially restore "databackup" to "Data". (hope that made sense)
[04:27] <ObsidianBlade> So Snark, I think I'm in a bit over my head. am I to open a terminal before the set up and run that stuff or something? I don't quite understand this.
[04:27] <SolarisBoy> KM0201: are you sure switching the source and destination in rsync won't work? is it a 1-1 a directory to a directory restore? or is it an archive of a backup etc?
[04:27] <wastrel> KM0201: you can just reverse the arguments
[04:27] <KM0201> wastrel: thats what i want to do... how would i do that?
[04:27] <lwizardl> -R worked
[04:28] <lwizardl> thanks
[04:28] <denebeim> Any ideas about my nfs problem?
[04:28] <snark> denebeim, he did ask for a list!
[04:28] <wastrel> KM0201: rsync A B ->  rsync B A
[04:28] <SolarisBoy> -l is for long listing -R is for recursive =)
[04:28] <KM0201> SolarisBoy: rsync is working fine (again, my job is set data to databackup)..... but lets say the drive with "data" fails, and I need to restore form "databackup"... is ther ea way to do that w/o creating another job?
[04:28] <wastrel> mais non?
[04:28] <KM0201> hmm
[04:29] <denebeim> yeah, but he asked for all the subdirectories.  and yeah for human readability ls -lR rocks
[04:29] <SolarisBoy> KM0201: what wastrel said
[04:29] <KM0201> ya
[04:29] <SolarisBoy> right - and -R is for subdirs
[04:29] <KM0201> i was trying to do it from an OMV gui.. so i was hoping there was a switch
[04:29] <KM0201> no big deal.
[04:30] <denebeim> well I guess I'll try again some other day, thanks guys.  I know it's a weird bug.
[04:30] <snark> ObsidianBlade, yes it is complicated, I fully agree ,now If you didnt necessarily want RAID    the btrfs filesystem is another possible solution
[04:31] <q0_0p> is evolution-data-server segfault is this a known issue?
[04:31] <snark> ObsidianBlade, and it has a lot of the benifits of RAID
[04:31] <q0_0p> [   26.059332] evolution-calen[1777]: segfault at 7f7270005ae0 ip 00007f7270005ae0 sp 00007fff5c698978 error 15
[04:31] <ObsidianBlade> Snark: Well it's not that I want it to be RAID for the sake of being RAID but I want to have that combined sace
[04:31] <ObsidianBlade> space*
[04:31] <wachpwnski> how does one make a samba share not viewable by unauthorized users?
[04:31] <ObsidianBlade> If btrfs offers that, then hey, I'm open to it
[04:31] <SolarisBoy> you can make an lvm pool of different disks
[04:32] <johnjacobjingerh> whats the proper syntax to move all files in a folder to a new location without moving the parent directory
[04:32] <johnjacobjingerh> would it be mv /directory/name/here/* /new/directory/here/
[04:32] <SolarisBoy> johnjacobjingerh: that works
[04:32] <excervo> wachpwnski, check samba config set readable = no
[04:33] <johnjacobjingerh> SolarisBoy, do u know if there's a way to check on the progress of mv... like if it's a big file can it show percentage copied?
[04:33] <SolarisBoy> johnjacobjingerh: you can do ps or alternations on ps
[04:33] <snark> ObsidianBlade, ok then   but it is still advertised as experimental (you have been warned!)    I use it myself on my personel pcs not at work!
[04:34] <ObsidianBlade> snark: lol what's experimental? btrfs?
[04:34] <SolarisBoy> johnjacobjingerh: you can get a total of the files size and then do something like 'watch 'du -skh /path/to/location' and you can see it increase
[04:34] <wastrel> ^^^
[04:34] <johnjacobjingerh> ah
[04:34] <andrew_> any ideas of a portable onboard graphics detector app
[04:34] <johnjacobjingerh> thanks
[04:34] <snark> ObsidianBlade, so just install ubuntu and tell it to use btrfs , it will sort the rest out for you
[04:34] <SolarisBoy> andrew_: lspci =)
[04:35] <johnjacobjingerh> i'm trying to copy all the contents of one drive to another
[04:35] <L3top> andrew_: what do you want it to do exactly?
[04:35] <andrew_> download driver
[04:35] <SolarisBoy> johnjacobjingerh: that works if your talking about files and mounted drives - which i think you are
[04:35] <ObsidianBlade> I suppose I can give that a shot. Something tells me I'll be coming back here with an error of some sort or some issue
[04:36] <johnjacobjingerh> yep
[04:36] <wastrel> johnjacobjingerh: if you use mv you will move them from one to the other not copy
[04:36] <L3top> andrew_: I can give you a script that will do it. What version ubuntu?
[04:36] <andrew_> im trying to install a game and im having trouble
[04:36] <johnjacobjingerh> i'm copying now... forgot to check the size of the files
[04:36] <johnjacobjingerh> wastrel yes i know
[04:36] <johnjacobjingerh> i want to move them
[04:36] <andrew_> 12.04lts L3top
[04:36] <johnjacobjingerh> i'm formatting the othetr drive
[04:36] <L3top> andrew_: oh... well I can help you just install that machines driver
[04:36] <johnjacobjingerh> tho cp might have been safer in case something gets missed
[04:37] <johnjacobjingerh> oops
[04:37] <q0_0p> how do i remove the mail icon
[04:37] <q0_0p> in 12.10
[04:37] <q0_0p> anyone?
[04:37] <johnjacobjingerh> oh well.. live and you learn
[04:37] <snark> ObsidianBlade, btrfs has been around for a few years so its not totally new
[04:37] <L3top> andrew_: lspci -nn | grep VGA
[04:37] <johnjacobjingerh> oh i see wastrel i accidentally said 'copy'   i meant move
[04:37] <wastrel> cp should be slightly faster
[04:37] <ObsidianBlade> Snark: Alright, Well I'll go and give it a shot then. Hopefully it works out. If not, I'll be back here for more help. Thanks for the help you've provided. It's been....helpful. lol
[04:37] <wastrel> because you don't have to unlink on the othere side
[04:38] <snark> ObsidianBlade,   hehe   np
[04:40] <johnjacobjingerh> sigh.. i hope netflix comes out for linux soon
[04:41] <pupo> anybody did this
[04:41] <pupo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[04:41] <pupo> the part of "Master Boot Record backup and re-replacement"
[04:41] <xMopxShell> Hi guys, I just installed & updated 12.10. After i installed nvidia-current and nvidia-settings, unity is gone and im stuck at 640x480. can anyone help?
[04:42] <snark> johnjacobjingerh, qoute "Movie streaming company Netflix have once again reiterated that have no plans to support Linux anytime soon"
[04:45] <wilee-nilee> pupo, You can do a backup but bothe the windows bootloader and the ubuntu bootloader can easily be inserted into the mbr
[04:45] <pupo> wilee-nilee: trying to understand this command
[04:45] <pupo> dd if=/dev/sda of=/mbr.bin bs=446 count=1
[04:46] <rinzler> looking for the gtkwhiteboard pkg and it doesn't show up under any of my current sources. what sources do I need to enable to get this to work?
[04:48] <wilee-nilee> pupo, There are two commands that is gthe save the other is the insert, honestly I have never used either, and I have W7 and 3 linux installs on a single HD, that is rather old school.
[04:49] <Jordan_U> pupo: For restoring an MS style mbr it's both easier and safer to use the install-mbr command, so I would ignore the suggestion of using dd.
[04:49] <wilee-nilee> Good to know the dd stuff I guess for some I never use them.
[04:50] <pupo> Jordan_U: I would be booting from a live cd
[04:50] <pupo> Jordan_U: this is after I install windows
[04:51] <Jordan_U> pupo: That doesn't change my statement at all.
[04:51] <pupo> Jordan_U: so I boot from live cd, then run              sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[04:52] <snark> pupo,   install windows first then boot into ubunto livecd and it will do the multiboot for you
[04:52] <pupo> I already have a working ubuntu I want to keep
[04:53] <snark> pupo, oh   thats very different! and harder
[04:53] <pupo> so I need to install windows and then install grub from live cd
[04:53] <Jordan_U> pupo: First, I thought that you were trying to (or preparing for in case you needed to) restore the Windows bootloader, now I understand that you want to restore grub. To restore grub from a LiveCD follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot
[04:53] <wilee-nilee> +1 on the chroot
[04:55] <pupo> Jordan_U: the dd option seems simpler :-(
[04:56] <KM0201> seems simpler?
[04:56] <KM0201> what could be more simple than booting the live cd and running a utility to restore grub?
[04:56] <snark> pupo, Jordan_U idea is much safer for you
[04:57] <Jordan_U> pupo: It is simpler, and it would probably work, but the guide I linked to is safer (no chance of data loss in the case of making a mistake) and more reliable.
[04:57] <pupo> KM0201: the other option is
[04:57] <pupo> Backup the MBR e.g. dd if=/dev/sda of=/mbr.bin bs=446 count=1
[04:57] <pupo> Restore the MBR e.g. dd if=/media/sda/mbr.bin of=/dev/sda bs=446 count=1
[05:06] <mah454> Hello
[05:06] <XMLnewbi> ok, im on ubuntu server. I have a java app im trying to install. java -jar mtgoxtomysql.jar & returns      Unable to access jarfile mtgoxtomysql.jar
[05:07] <XMLnewbi> I have FTP accress and the Java is right on top
[05:07] <XMLnewbi> do i need to install Java? can I do that from the command line?
[05:07] <pupo> Jordan_U: what's the difference between point 5 and 6there
[05:08] <aeon-ltd> !java | XMLnewbi
[05:08] <guang> how to logout with command?
[05:09] <guang> how to logout with command?
[05:09] <Jordan_U> pupo: Point 5 is for mounting your root partition, point 6 is for mounting your /boot/ partition (if you have one). You probably don't have a separate /boot/ partition.
[05:09] <darkowlzz_> guang, you mean close the terminal ?
[05:09] <guang> i mean log out,not close the terminal
[05:10] <pupo> Jordan_U: I also would need to install the windows partition at some point
[05:10] <XMLnewbi> I on SSH into a VPS,              All i got is command line, Im really uncomfertable.           !java doesnt seem to install Java
[05:10] <snark> guang,    exit
[05:10] <darkowlzz_> guang, are you alson on SSH to a VPS?
[05:10] <Jordan_U> pupo: This would all be something that you would do after installing Windows.
[05:11] <guang> i work on ubuntu
[05:11] <pupo> Jordan_U: yes of course
[05:11] <pupo> if I don't install windows I don't need to reinstall grub :-D
[05:11] <XMLnewbi> is there a command line to tell is Java is installed?
[05:11] <ahmad> command -v java
[05:11] <pupo> XMLnewbi: java -version
[05:11] <ahmad> or which -v java
[05:12] <ahmad> or what pupo said
[05:12] <XMLnewbi> I am on ubuntu server. -v   returned command not found
[05:12] <pupo> pupo: java could be there anyway, this will tell you if it has it in the path and all the stuff
[05:12] <XMLnewbi> OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.4) (6b24-1.11.4-1ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)
[05:13] <ahmad> 'which java' works without the -v
[05:13] <wastrel> a wild java appears
[05:13] <pupo> XMLnewbi: openjdk, a bit different from sun jdk but works anyway
[05:13] <guang> when i want to log out,i can only use 'ps au',then kill the 'X' thread
[05:14] <guang> is there other command?
[05:14] <pupo> logout
[05:14] <wastrel> well you could do pkill gnome-session
[05:14] <pupo> guang: logout
[05:14] <snark> guang, what desktop you use?
[05:14] <guang> 10.04
[05:14] <XMLnewbi>  java -jar mtgoxtomysql.jar                returns    Unable to access jarfile mtgoxtomysql.jar                 Does that mean it cant find the file?       is there a way I can view the DIR? I dont know the filestructor. I only have FTP access and I put the Java right on top
[05:14] <guang> logout can not work
[05:15] <alagu> Hello, I'm trying to install using wubi. I have ubuntu-12.10-wubi-amd64.tar.xz downloaded locally.
[05:15] <alagu> But everytime I start wubi, it tries to download it from internet
[05:15] <kfed> I don't have an internet connection on my install, how do I install make
[05:15] <wastrel> if you only have ftp how are you running java
[05:15] <pupo> XMLnewbi: first you should make sure file there, then us java -jar
[05:15] <darkowlzz_> alagu, hi, tamil?
[05:15] <snark> guang, do you want to shutdown the pc?
[05:15] <XMLnewbi> I am on SSH command line
[05:15] <pupo> XMLnewbi: to find file just use find or locate
[05:15] <aeon-ltd> alagu: if you have the iso in the same dir it will detect it
[05:15] <alagu> darkowlzz_: yes :)
[05:15] <darkowlzz_> alagu murgan
[05:16] <alagu> aeon-ltd: I don't have iso, but I have the xz
[05:16] <guang> i use terminal
[05:16] <wastrel> guang could do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:16] <foobArrr> I have problems with distorted sound and echo with vlc. Often sound is only distorted for the first few seconds or a minute of a file, then sound is normal. When I skip to the next song/video, sound is distorted again. Also volume levels are strange: some videos are loud, some are quiet, in mplayer they have similar volume. I tried recording the distortions with Sound Recorder, but I can't get that to work.
[05:17] <wastrel> heh i think guang tested my suggestion
[05:17] <alagu> ubuntu-12.10-wubi-amd64.tar.xz is the file I have
[05:17] <alagu> I assume wubi is also trying to download the same file
[05:17] <snark> wastrel, hows that then?
[05:18] <alagu> If I know which path wubi is trying to download, I could jut put that there.
[05:18] <snark> guess not!
[05:18] <guang> yeah,/etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:18] <guang> it does work.

[05:18] <kfed> How do I install make if I don't have an internet connection on my ubuntu installation
[05:19] <darkowlzz_> ANYONE, do iso files come as tar.xz?
[05:19] <alusion> how long is a secure MySQL password typically?
[05:19] <snark> dark3n|off, NO
[05:19] <alagu> darkowlzz_: no i guess
[05:19] <aeon-ltd> alagu: where did you get this xz?
[05:19] <Mechdave_> darkowlzz_, no
[05:19] <wilee-nilee> alagu, Here is the wubi wiki. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide
[05:19] <snark> darkowlzz_, NO!
[05:19] <KM0201> darkowlzz_: not usually
[05:19] <darkowlzz_> alagu, where did you download that ubuntu tar.xz file?
[05:19] <wastrel> guang: you're not properly logging out of the gnome session, you're just restarting the display manager but it does get you out of X
[05:20] <alagu> darkowlzz_: aeon-ltd http://releases.ubuntu.com/quantal/
[05:20] <Mechdave_> darkowlzz_, you need the wubi .iso file
[05:20] <alagu> ubuntu-12.10-wubi-amd64.tar.xz
[05:20] <darkowlzz_> Mechdave_, no, I am trying to help alagu
[05:20] <alagu> Thanks darkowlzz_  :)
[05:21] <darkowlzz_> alagu, are you alagu murgan?
[05:21] <alagu> darkowlzz_: no, I'm alagu muthuraman
[05:21] <darkowlzz_> oh! I know someone with the same name, OT , sorry
[05:22] <alagu> no problem darkowlzz_  :)
[05:23] <darkowlzz_> alagu, did you tried extracting that file?
[05:23] <darkowlzz_> usually wubi comes inside the iso file
[05:27] <bitpimp> ok... I installed java 6 and java 7 somewhere in my system, but can't find them... sudo update-alternatives --config java is telling me there is only one alternative in the link group (6)... how can I find 7?
[05:27] <wastrel> yay
[05:28] <wastrel> did you install java 7 from repos?
[05:28] <XMLnewbi> how do you view your current DIR in unbuntu?
[05:28] <wastrel> pwd
[05:28] <darkowlzz_> pwd
[05:28] <XMLnewbi> ls isnt returning anything
[05:28] <wastrel> if ls isn't returning anything that means the dir is empty or contains only hidden files
[05:29] <wastrel> ls -a to view hidden files
[05:29] <drupin> Duplicate sources.list entry http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ stable/main i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_talkplugin_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_Packages)
[05:29] <bitpimp> wastrel: nope
[05:30] <drupin> i get this on sudo apt-get update
[05:30] <wastrel> bitpimp: i figured out why it's not showing up in the alternatives system
[05:30] <bitpimp> wastrel: I think I just pulled the directory down on 7
[05:30] <bitpimp> wastrel: lol... ok
[05:30] <doomlord> i can see a share across the network on my desktop (Network servers -> foo) -> "foo on bar" shows up as a desktop icon;  but where can i acess this from a commandline. i tried looking in "/mnt/" ,also "~/Desktop/foo on bar".
[05:31] <bitpimp> wastrel: is there a way to manually add executables to the alternatives?
[05:31] <doomlord> q: what is the path to acess a share that shows up on the desktop
[05:31] <wastrel> doomlord: it's in /media
[05:31] <doomlord> thanks
[05:31] <wastrel> probs
[05:31] <wastrel> doomlord: also see "mount"  or "df"
[05:31] <knix> I just installed 12.10 on my laptop and I have no acceleration when I use startx but lightdm work sjust fine
[05:31] <wastrel> bitpimp: iono, probably. but why not use java7 from repo?
[05:32] <bitpimp> wastrel: well... I want both 6 and 7 available, and not sure what happens when you install two different java versions from repo
[05:32] <doomlord> oh i can see a usb stick there, but not the network share i'm connected too :(
[05:33] <wastrel> bitpimp: it works good and you can switch between them with the alternatives system
[05:33] <knix> It's also not obeying my keyboard options from /etc/default/keyboard in lightdm but if I startx it works fine
[05:33] <bitpimp> wastrel: badaboom... cool... thanks!!
[05:33] <snark> doomlord,  what is in the address bar in the file manager when share is opened?
[05:33] <doomlord> heh no "open terminal here"
[05:33] <doomlord> let me check:-
[05:33] <wastrel> network share if it's samba i dunno where to look
[05:34] <doomlord> "foo on bar"     foo is the name of the file, bar is the machine name
[05:34] <wastrel> is it a windows share?
[05:34] <wastrel> anything show up with "mount" or "df" ?
[05:34] <uwe> guten morgen
[05:34] <Bill_Builder> Hi, I'm new to Ubuntu, I'm tired of not seeing through the window...    anyway, I can't get Ubuntu to run... I believe the problem is I have a RAID 0 boot drive. Any suggestions on how to make this work?
[05:35] <uwe> wer spricht deutsch und kennt ubuntu 12.10 ??
[05:35] <wastrel> uwe: #ubuntu-de ?
[05:35] <cfhowlett> !de|uwe
[05:35] <XMLnewbi> how do I go up?    im in home/usr        cd home    says no such file or dir
[05:36] <darkowlzz> cd ..
[05:36] <snark> XMLnewbi, cd/home/
[05:36] <darkowlzz> XMLnewbi, ^
[05:36] <doomlord> its a windows share, i think , yes
[05:36] <Mechdave_> XMLnewbi, cd ..
[05:36] <snark> XMLnewbi, cd /home/
[05:36] <Mechdave_> or to go to /home it is cd
[05:36] <doomlord> ah just trying mount now
[05:36] <snark> XMLnewbi, cd ..    even
[05:38] <doomlord> "df" shows me a usb stick aand drives  //dev/sda5 /udev tmpfs  none none /dev/sdb1   ...
[05:38] <XMLnewbi> if im on a VPS set up to run a website. What folder most likly has my FTP files?  bin   dev  home        initrd.img.old  lib64       media  opt   root  sbin     srv  tmp  var      vmlinuz.old boot  etc  initrd.img  lib             lost+found  mnt    proc  run   selinux  sys  usr  vmlinuz
[05:38] <wastrel> XMLnewbi: that would be home
[05:38] <ahmad> can anyone advise, what is the best way to transfer a file from localhost ubuntu 12.10 Desktop to a virtual machine (virtualbox) ubuntu 12.10 server
[05:38] <snark> XMLnewbi,  maybe   /srv?
[05:38] <doomlord> ah i have ~/Desktop/.gvfs/foo on bar :) found it
[05:39] <doomlord> Desktop/.gvfs
[05:39] <XMLnewbi> home only has usr     and usr is empty
[05:39] <XMLnewbi> cd user
[05:39] <vinoth> can any one fix this error i got this in my ubuntu terminal when i configure vlc :::::::::: vlc is unable to open mrl check  the log for details
[05:39] <guang_> ahmd,you can use copy and past
[05:39] <wastrel> ahmad: i would scp but there's probably a better way, shared disk or something with vbox
[05:39] <doomlord> no sorry. .. ~/.gvfs
[05:39] <Bill_Builder> Thanks for the look, I'll take this up tomorrow... best to all.
[05:39] <wastrel> copy & paste nowai
[05:41] <doomlord> ok thats does what i need, great.... i'm having to create "guest" acess though - i'd like to know how to make my username work for logging in properly.  I'm trying to sync a laptop and a desktop machine
[05:41] <XMLnewbi> srv has a folder ftp         but it is empy, wtf
[05:42] <snark> XMLnewbi, it really depends what ftp package your using and how its configured
[05:42] <drupin> I get this on sudo apt-get update http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299351/
[05:42] <ahmad> wastrel, ty i will look in to shared disk.. i wasnt sure scp will work over virtual machine
[05:42] <XMLnewbi> user@108-171-201-222:/srv/ftp$ java mtgoxtomysql.jar Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: mtgoxtomysql/jar Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: mtgoxtomysql.jar         at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217)         at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)         at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:205)         at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadCl
[05:43] <drupin> XMLnewbi: use http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[05:43] <XMLnewbi> It actually worked snark, it found  my java in there
[05:43] <XMLnewbi> for some reason ls just wasnt listing the files
[05:43] <XMLnewbi> but now there is a problem with my lava
[05:44] <wastrel> ahmad: i don't know anything about virtualbox honestly, i was just speculating :]
[05:44]  * [_-S1L3NC3-_] Hmmm
[05:44] <wastrel> XMLnewbi: try dir in ftp instead of ls maybe
[05:44] <Jordan_U> drupin: Then you probably have two entries containing http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ , to find out where they are you can run "grep -R http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/"
[05:46] <drupin> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299355/ this i got from pastebinit
[05:46] <drupin> which one to remove now
[05:47] <vinoth_> FFFFFFFFFFFFF
[05:48] <drupin> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299355/ which one to remove
[05:48] <yugandhar> Hi Guys, We need the monitoring tool for apache web request and performance to install on ubuntu linux
[05:48] <blacksunseven> my samba has completely stopped working. i get a cryptic error similar to this http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10057491&postcount=1
[05:49] <yugandhar> could anyone help me please?
[05:49] <blacksunseven> i've had zero luck fixing it, i'm assuming it's some screwed permissions somewhere
[05:49] <wastrel> samba :[
[05:50] <wastrel> blacksunseven: does /etc/samba/smb.conf exist, is it readable, does /etc/samba/ have reasonable looking perms as well?
[05:50] <snark> blacksunseven, do you not have a backup config file?
[05:50] <blacksunseven> wastrel, it didnt, i copied the sample from my /usr, relogged, and now its gone again apparently
[05:51] <doomlord> its not letting me do a "git fetch" from the location ,,  i did git add remote blah ~/.gvfs/foo\ on\ bar  ... the path shows up fine but it keeps telling me "doesn't appear to be a git repository" ... is git not going through the appropriate network 'abstraction ' or seomthing
[05:51] <doomlord> i *can* just copy raw files however
[05:51] <blacksunseven> and no, /etc/samba has no permissions
[05:51] <blacksunseven> "d---------" for /etc/samba
[05:51] <wastrel> eek
[05:52] <blacksunseven> yeah, i know, i have no idea how this happened
[05:52] <wastrel> is your disk failing or filesystem corrupted
[05:52] <snark> blacksunseven, it need a new config file
[05:52] <wastrel> what do other files & dirs in /etc look like
[05:52] <blacksunseven> rest of /etc looks good
[05:52] <snark> blacksunseven, it needs* a new config file
[05:52] <blacksunseven> snark, k, from where?
[05:52] <wastrel> so chmod 755 /etc/samba
[05:53] <snark> blacksunseven, from a backup?
[05:53] <blacksunseven> yeah.. backup..
[05:53] <kfed> I want to install gcc, but I don't have an Internet connection
[05:53] <blacksunseven> is it ironic i encountered this problem when trying to set up a backup for another pc?
[05:53] <kfed> I have the deb file and deb files for all dependencies
[05:53] <blacksunseven> i hadnt modified the default smb.conf to my knowledge
[05:54] <yugandhar> Hi guys, can anyone help me on my question?
[05:54] <kfed> How do I do this?
[05:55] <kfed> If it were just one I would use dpkg, but I don't think that will resolve the dependencies properl
[05:55] <wastrel> kfed: http://askubuntu.com/questions/21004/is-there-apt-cacher-for-windows  perhaps
[05:55] <wastrel> kfed: /win 19
[05:55] <wastrel> er, ignore that
[05:56] <blacksunseven> the permissions + a fresh smb.conf from /usr fixed it, thanks guys

[06:23] <Lartza> wilee-nilee, Ahh had to do a reboot
[06:23] <Lartza> wilee-nilee, It's a server
[06:24] <Lartza> wilee-nilee, There was only root, then I created my own account, and had to chmod sudo to work, needed a reboot after that it seems
[06:24] <rinzler> how do I change which sound card that the system controls
[06:24] <wilee-nilee> qkit, You give a specific addition to your sources.list, that is the web page look closer at the instructions.
[06:25] <wilee-nilee> Lartza, cool
[06:25] <snark> rinzler, alsamixer
[06:25] <qkit> ssnark: sorry, what you mean script?
[06:26] <wilee-nilee> Gyro54, Try killall libreoffice in the terminal.

[06:30] <Gyro54> wilee-nilee: trying but no process found
[06:30] <wilee-nilee> Lartza, If you get no answers here you might check with #ubuntu-server if you need help otherwise.
[06:31] <rinzler> how do I find the hardware address of sound devices?
[06:32] <snark> rinzler, does alsamixer even startup?
[06:32] <rinzler> snark: yes
