[08:56] <Mikey^> isabel: check that its unmuted and volume is up
[08:56] <isabel> Mikey^: ok, i am there
[08:56] <Taddle> Everything was donated to them
[08:56] <DarwinSurvivor> Taddle: get that server up and running with a small site using mysql and keep it updating and running for a month solid. at that point, start looking at iptables. once you have that figured out (and get someone on a support channel to look over it with you), then consider forwarding a few ports (http, ssh) from the router
[08:56] <ikonia> Taddle: they are wasting money/time if they have to fix your learning mistakes
[08:56] <DarwinSurvivor> Taddle: also, *always* use ssh (ftp is insecure) and *always* use public/private keys. turn off password login completely (help.ubuntu.com will tell you how)
[08:57] <Taddle> DarwinSurvivor, thanks. I've been through this before, I was just having problems recently
[08:57] <isabel> Mikey^: Mic is not muted, for internal mic and normal mic
[08:57] <Taddle> ikonia, the people who donate fix things for free
[08:57] <ikonia> Taddle: that is still their time/money/effort they are wasting
[08:57] <ikonia> anyway, I digress
[08:57] <Mikey^> isabel: you need to choose which mic you want to use
[08:57] <ikonia> Taddle: I've given you the URL to read, good luck with understanding/absorbing it
[08:57] <isabel> Mikey^:ok
[08:58] <kris021> I couldn't seem to log in to my original Admin account, so I created another under the Guest account, deleted the original and never the new one a password. Now I don't have any type of root access to try again. Is there some type of default password?
[08:58] <Mikey^> isabel: do you see a capture tab?
[08:58] <DarwinSurvivor> Taddle: I'm not joking about the "forget everything you knew" part. follow *every* step for setting up each service (apach, mysql, ssh, etc) from the guide. if something seems strange, ask a linux admin about it
[08:58] <ikonia> kris021: no, nothing default
[08:58] <Taddle> what was wrong with how I started mysql anyways? It works?
[08:58] <isabel> Mikey^: no there is no capture tab
[08:58] <kris021> So I'm screwed?
[08:59] <ikonia> Taddle: you've launched the daemon directly as root, you've not put any shell job control in (not using an init script)
[08:59] <Mikey^> isabel: choose preferences and then select all the checkboxes
[08:59] <Taddle> What makes that a problem? (This is for my learning btw)
[08:59] <isabel> Mikey^: just output, input, Sound effects,Applications tabs
[08:59] <ikonia> Taddle: research it
[09:00] <Taddle> Meh, or I could ask one my friends at Mozilla IT
[09:00] <ikonia> Taddle: sure, ask them, that's research too
[09:00] <kris021> ikonia: So what do you think would be the best course of action?
[09:00] <DarwinSurvivor> Taddle: linux is designed to be modularly secure, if 1 piece is attacked/penetrated, the rest should remain secure. by running mysql as root, if someone were to hack the mysql daemon (via sql injection, or what-ever), they could potentially take complete control of the *entire* system
[09:00] <isabel> Mikey^: sorry, where is the preferences?
[09:00] <ikonia> kris021: depends on a lot of things
[09:00] <dr_willis> often 10 min of readinv is worth 10 HRS on irc
[09:00] <ikonia> kris021: is there anything of value on this machine currently ?
[09:01] <Taddle> Thanks, DarwinSurvivor
[09:01] <kris021> ikonia: Nah, pretty much clean. Most of my things are online. Clean install then?
[09:01] <Mikey^> isabel: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AudioCapture
[09:01] <DarwinSurvivor> Taddle: come back if you have any questions regarding help.ubuntu.com
[09:01] <ikonia> kris021: just re-install then, that's the quicker/easier less hassle approach, make note of the new password and you're fine
[09:02] <isabel> Mikey^: ok, thanks i will have look, thanks
[09:02] <kris021> ikonia: Well it wasn't that I don't know the new password, it's that I never assigned it to the new account before trying to log in to it, only to realize that it doesn't have one
[09:02] <Mikey^> kris021: just a sec, If I understand you lost your password?
[09:03] <kris021> 0
[09:04] <Mikey^> kris021: boot into recovery mode and you will be dropped to a shell. there you can set a passowrd if you know the username
[09:04] <kris021> Mikey^: I had some issues logging in to my original account, so under the Guest account I created a new account, deleted the old account, and never assigned the new account a password before trying to log in to it.
[09:04] <hansonforensics> Hi All - Can anyone help with an asoundrc file? For Alsa.
[09:05] <kris021> Mikey^: I've tried that. It wouldn't allow me. I got an error: Authentication manipulation error
[09:05] <dr_willis> i find it oddd thsst the guest account could make a new account...
[09:05] <hansonforensics> Or anyone know the best way to set up a virtual sound card?
[09:05] <Mikey^> kris021: doesnt it drop you to a root shell?
[09:06] <kris021> Mikey^: Yes
[09:06] <Mikey^> kris021: and you did, passwd username
[09:06] <dr_willis> hansonforensics:  how about you give the channel details of what you are wanting to do
[09:06] <kris021> Mikey^: Yes, and I received the error stated above
[09:06] <Mikey^> strange
[09:06] <hansonforensics> Ah, yes that would be more helpful, sorry. :)
[09:06] <kris021> I believe it may have something to do with the fact that the account has no password at all
[09:06] <dr_willis> perhaps make a new user..  and rember to add them to the admin group
[09:07] <Mikey^> kris021: how did you make a new user from a guest account?
[09:07] <kris021> dr_willis: It is an Admin, with no password
[09:07] <dr_willis> so make another one...
[09:07] <hansonforensics> I'm using a DJ program called Mixxx, I need to send my main channel & monitor channel through my headphones which are USB ones. I think the best way to do it is by using asoundrc but can't get it to work.
[09:07] <ome> What module should I reload for the for the xorg synaptics configuration to get updated ?
[09:07] <kris021> Mikey^: You go to the User Account setting and unlock it, using the original root password, and procede from there.
[09:08] <Mikey^> kris021: I know, but you said you had trouble logging in to your orginal account
[09:08] <bohemian9485> kris021: you mean the guest account you are using has admin privelege?
[09:08] <kris021> dr_willis: I can't because the original Admin account was deleted due to inaccessibility and I can't unlock the User Account settings because the new and only Admin user has no password
[09:09] <dr_willis> kris021 from the recovery/root terminal you can easially add a new user.
[09:09] <kris021> Mikey^: Yes, I wasn't logged in, just using its root priveleges
[09:10] <kris021> bohemian9485: It doesn't have admin priveleges any more because the only admin account with root access has no password, therefore no way for me to utilize them. Although, the original, which is now gone, did.
[09:11] <kris021> dr_willis: I've tried that. Got the error: Authentication manipulation error
[09:12] <dr_willis> sounds to me like you got deeper issues.
[09:12] <dr_willis> sanest thing to do is just do a reinstall if this is a new install
[09:14] <kris021> dr_willis: Deeper issues like what? And that's probably what I'm going to do. It was just a hassle originally because it was from Wubi, then converted to a legit dual boot
[09:14] <dr_willis> kris021:  i cant imagine why root cant make a new user.  and i realluy cant understand how the guest user can unlock stuff.
[09:14] <Mikey^> I think he is just saying stuff
[09:14] <dr_willis> if the guest user can unlock the user tool. try making a new user i guess..
[09:15] <dr_willis> but i wouldent trust the system at all..
[09:16] <bohemian9485> i remember when i lost the root password for my backtrack os, and i used ubuntu 11.10 live usb to edit the shadow file and set the password to zero string
[09:17] <dr_willis> bohemian9485:  yep. thats doable.. but  the errors mentioned. i wonder if eventhin it would work. hard to tell
[09:17] <Mikey^> bohemian9485: but kris021 cant because he doesnt know the password so he cant use sudo
[09:17] <dr_willis> if he logs in as root via the recovery console - he is root allready. no sudo needed
[09:17] <kris021> dr_willis: I would, but I can
[09:17] <Mikey^> dr_willis: yes then he gets some manipulation error
[09:18] <kris021> 't unlock it because there is no password
[09:18] <dr_willis> kris021:  unlock? we are not refering to using the GUI tools...
[09:18] <bohemian9485> maybe the user account does not have sudo privelege?
[09:18] <dr_willis> manipulation error - imples to me thast some of the security files are messed up.
[09:19] <kris021> dr_willis: I was referring to your statement directed to me specifically earlier
[09:19] <bohemian9485> same conclusion here
[09:19] <dr_willis> i could have had the system reinstalled by now... ;)
[09:19] <dr_willis> But the servers seem slow for updates . not sure whats going on
[09:20] <kris021> So could I, if I had a boot disk.
[09:20] <Mikey^> kris021: you keep coming up with a new problem each time
[09:21] <kris021> Mike^: What do you mean?
[09:21] <Mikey^> we try to answer your question and then you say something
[09:21] <dr_willis> i always keep a live usb tied inside the case of my machines.. for emergancies.  ;)
[09:21] <Mikey^> kris021: use wubi and reinstall
[09:21] <Mikey^> if  thats what you used before
[09:23] <kris021> Mikey^: Like I've said already, seeing as how that's my only real course of action other than constantly using a Guest account, I will. I just said that I didn't want to due to the hassle.  :|
[09:25] <dr_willis> what for all the wayland  issues comming in the  next year or 2 ;)
[09:27] <ome> dr_willis: haha, true that. but Its just not good tha when ever I get a new system I shall spend half my time with X11 config files instead of working.
[09:27] <TheCoolest> WHAT'S YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS!!!
[09:27] <Mikey^> !ot TheCoolest
[09:27] <dr_willis> ome:  with the latest releases ive have  had very few if any X issues.. keeps getting better. dident even need to use nomodeset to install with 12.04
[09:27] <TheCoolest> oops
[09:27] <Mikey^> !ot | TheCoolest
[09:28] <Mikey^> TheCoolest: wrong window? :)
[09:28] <TheCoolest> yes
[09:29] <ome> dr_willis: maybe it's that my machines are 'bit exotic, but it's just a probook.
[09:29] <dr_willis> an apple machine? forums and in here are tons of issues with them every week.

[09:33] <alankila> What a bother it was to enable hugepages for libvirt
[09:33] <alankila> Clearly nobody else has recently done this
[09:34] <dr_willis> not even sure what it dioes...
[09:36] <Milad_AS> how can i use pm-suspend in cron ?
[09:36] <cristian_c> Hi
[09:36] <cristian_c> How can I identify alsa modules?
[09:36] <Boreeas> Hey, can someone tell me how to restart X? After resuming from suspended state, it suddenly started using 30% of my RAM (~ 1 GB)
[09:38] <alankila> dr_willis: hugepages? it just gives some ~10 % performance boost to virtual machines.
[09:38] <iceroot> Boreeas: sudo service lightdm restart (12.04) sudo service gdm restart (lower then 12.04)
[09:38] <alankila> but to do this, I had to fight broken assumptions made by libvirt about how the pages work -- at least today -- and apparmor. Took a while.
[09:39] <Miscni> morning all
[09:39] <Boreeas> iceroot: Ah, thanks
[09:39] <iceroot> Boreeas: but before
[09:39] <iceroot> Boreeas: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[09:39] <alankila> so I had to mount hugetlbfs on /hugepages/libvirt/qemu then tell qemu that the pages are at /hugepages so that it appends that libvirt/qemu again -- it turns out hugepages don't work if you make further directory structure in the hugepage filesystem, but libvirt insisted on that
[09:40] <alankila> additionally, the apparmor template had to be adjusted to permit creation (and reading, I suppose) of files under /hugepages/libvirt/qemu/*
[09:40] <iceroot> Boreeas: normally its just a wrong interpretation of the ram-usage
[09:40] <methods> anyone have any idea which package 32bit version of libpng is in ?
[09:41] <alankila> I would have liked to not have to do this, and just use the transparent hugepage support, but if cache pressure breaks the whole thing and nothing reassembles the huge pages after cache pressure is gone, no thanks.
[09:41] <iceroot> methods: you mean which version is in the repos of libpng?
[09:41] <methods> I'm on ubuntu64 and need the 32bit version which use to be provided by ia32-libs
[09:42] <nopf> hi. dunno where to ask. i open some application menu via 'alt-i'. when mouse has been in that menus area, some unwanted submenu may pop up, so my next key 'h' is badly interpreted. this *does not* happen in ubuntu iirc. somebody tell me how does ubuntu do that, so that i get sane behaviour on all machines?
[09:42] <iceroot> !info libpng12-0
[09:42] <methods> iceroot:  it's not in there
[09:43] <methods> dpkg -L   https://gist.github.com/eb5b7dfc1946aeb85f4c
[09:44] <iceroot> methods: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0
[09:44] <iceroot> methods: of course there is not the 32bit version when you are using the amd64 package
[09:44] <methods> that's the 64bit version....
[09:44] <iceroot> methods: packages.ubuntu.com download the 32bit version and extract the file if you need the 32bit version
[09:45] <methods> let me try asking again
[09:45] <methods> I'm on ubuntu64 and need the 32bit version which use to be provided by ia32-libs
[09:45] <methods> this is not complicated there is many many packages that provide 32 bit versions of many things…
[09:46] <methods> for example:          ia32-libs-multiarch libc6-dev-i386 lib32z1-dev lib32mudflap0 libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri ia32-libs lib32z1-dev libopenal-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
[09:47] <methods> would also be nice if there was 32bit lua
[10:13] <noob7> 'SP5100 TCO timer: mmio address 0xyyyyyyy already in use' when i boot, ubuntu 12.04. any workarounds?
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> noob7: have you tested your RAM?
[10:15] <noob7> i let memtest run for a 10 mins or so
[10:15] <noob7> its fine i guess
[10:16] <noob7> and my windows dual boot is working properly
[10:17] <Loshki> noob7: personally, I like to run memtest at least overnight...
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> noob7: http://askubuntu.com/questions/38920/boot-splash-broken-by-sp5100-tco-timer-mmio-address-0xyyyyyyy-already-in-use
[10:18] <noob7> Loshki: actually, it was running perfectly until an hou ago...some quick workaround?
[10:18] <noob7> ActionParsnip: been there mate, im not able to blacklist it, it says read only file system :(
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> noob7: probably that then, sounds like you need to fsck the partition
[10:20] <noob7> noob7: actually makes sense because i was just playing around with pysdm before this happened
[10:20] <noob7> lol, ActionParsnip: actually makes sense because i was just playing around with pysdm before this happened
[10:25] <noob7> is there like a simple reinstall thing where this problem gets solved, and i dont lose my apps?
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> noob7: could reinstall, then restore data and settings frmo backup...
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> noob7: simple fsck may fix it good, will require liveCD
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> !fsck
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> noob7: or use that ^
[10:26] <noob7> aah
[10:26] <noob7> trying that now
[10:26] <noob7> thank you
[10:26] <noob7> :D
[10:29] <AminosAmigos> HEllo
[10:30] <AminosAmigos> any one knows a software for designing a T-shirt ?
[10:30] <iSeeDeadPixels> yes
[10:30] <iSeeDeadPixels> GIMP
[10:30] <recon_tv> a question about live usb, there are the i386 and amd64 bit iso's , is it as simple as all 32 bit systems need i386 and all 64bit systems use amd64?
[10:31] <Lebby> AminosAmigos:  GIMP or inkscape
[10:31] <alankila> recon_tv: no, 64-bit systems can also boot 32-bit OSes
[10:32] <iSeeDeadPixels> Desktop > 32bit, Server > 64 bit
[10:32] <HicKey> I`m Using SnOoPy ScRiPt
[10:32] <AminosAmigos> Ok :D hope i could find a tuto will keep you posted ;)
[10:32] <Lebby> AminosAmigos:  explain it better and if i can, i'll give you snippets!
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> recon_tv: intel 64bit will be usable with the 64bit ISO
[10:33] <AminosAmigos> I am looking for a tutorial about designing a T-shirt with GIMP
[10:34] <gopalmishra> i have problem using usb modem in ubuntu 12.04 lts, can any one suggest what to do
[10:34] <recon_tv> ok, that helps, does it really make sense to install 32bit on 64bit processor?
[10:34] <AminosAmigos> Do they have an IRC room ?
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> gopalmishra: 3G modem or ADSL modem. 'modem' is a very amiguous term
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> AminosAmigos: #gimp
[10:34] <gopalmishra> action parsnip > 3g modem
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> gopalmishra: if you run:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; lsusb    can you please PASTEBIN the output
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> gopalmishra: if you use TAB to complete nicks, its easier to type and you will highlight whom you are addressing :)
[10:35] <kutty> how to create new partion ubuntu 12.04 pls any one help?
[10:35] <iSeeDeadPixels> recon_tv: 32bit if you're using gnome, 64 bit if you're using server
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> kutty: use gparted
[10:35] <iSeeDeadPixels> kutty, gparted
[10:36] <theadmin> kutty: GParted. If you need to resize existing partitions, best to use a livecd (you can't change partitions if they're in use)
[10:36] <recon_tv> iSeeDeadPixels: ok, I'll do it that way, had 64 bit on my laptop, it does have a couple of issues
[10:40] <snapdata> Every time I try to shut down my computer the window manager closes, nothing else does, and I wind up having to hold the power button. Any ideas?
[10:40] <snapdata> 12.04
[10:40] <rax-> I'm running ubuntu 12.04 as a xbmc server with an ati card.. problem is the audio over HDMI stops working after the TV has been turned off and back on and doesn't recognise it coming back? Any ideas how I can fix this?
[10:41] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: if you run:  sudo shutdown -h now     does it shutdown ok?
[10:41] <ActionParsnip> rax-: if you unload then reload your sound module, is it ok?
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> rax-: actually, just try:  killall pulseaudio
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> rax-: it should then restart and might be ok
[10:42] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: lets find out
[10:42] <rax-> probably would be but I don't know how to do that. Also I need it to do this without my input because my gf will use it without any terminal access
[10:42] <recon_tv> ActionParsnip: do you work for ubuntu ? you nearly always here?
[10:43] <alankila> I wrote this about the hugetlbfs thing: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1001584
[10:43] <ActionParsnip> recon_tv: just chillin, making the world a better place. I'm a user just like you but I am an ubuntu member. I don't work for Ubuntu
[10:43] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: it worked
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> rax-: not sure how to automate it, you could make her a desktop icon
[10:44] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: why doesn't the gnome 'shutdown' button use the -h flag by default?
[10:44] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: and thank you, by the way :)
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: not sure, could be a permission thing too
[10:44] <recon_tv> ActionParsnip: good for you, I sort of got tired of idiots who would not listen to help when offered :)
[10:44] <rax-> hmm well it's an xbmc only session, so even that wouldn't work ;\
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: s'alreet
[10:44] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: rgr
[10:44] <rax-> at the minute we just restart the host from the reboot option ins xbmc
[10:45] <rax-> doesn't take too long at least but it's annoying
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> rax-: you can add applications in xbmc, just add your script
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> rax-: does the command even work?
[10:45] <rax-> not at home right now to test it, I've written it down and will try tonight
[10:45] <namoamitabuddha> How to know whether UPnP is OK in aMule?
[10:46] <recon_tv> managed to fry networking on my 64bit 10.04 lts lastnight installing android development environment, thus the upgrade to xubuntu 12.04
[10:47] <violinappren> recon_tv:  ADK does not interface with networking
[10:48] <noob7>  ActionParsnip: touch forcefsck gives me the same error, readonly. how can i do it with a live cd/usb?
[10:49] <dr__willis> !fixapt
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> noob7: there is a man page for fsck, or you can find guides online
[10:49] <recon_tv> violinappren: tell my computer that, the instructions I followed left me with some UI strangeness and no sign of network manager even though the card was detected, it also managed to leave me with a login loop :)
[10:50] <noob7> ActionParsnip: thank you
[10:50] <violinappren> recon_tv: where is that page? it's as simple as extracting an archive and running some binaries inside to download some tools
[10:50] <recon_tv> probably my mistake :) but system was well messed up. was going to upgrade anyway
[10:54] <namoamitabuddha> Ee?
[10:56] <Sidewinder> Must've finally got his diploma. :)
[10:57] <recon_tv> violinappren: I'll be trying it again on a more uptodate system, if I get the same problems I'll come back and ask

[11:04] <dpy> hi guys
[11:04] <harshad> how to install updates of ubuntu 12.04 offline...
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> harshad: you could use the debs from an online system and use aptoncd to install them
[11:06] <harshad> ActionParsnip:what is aptonncd
[11:06] <sjihs> Isn't Monaco font available in ubuntu's repo?
[11:08] <recon_tv> harshad: google is you friend :)
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> tabasko:  restart the lightdm service will kill X/restart it.. and should have it appear.
[11:09] <chatubuntu> i am running fresh xubuntu-desktop 386 , but no sound, neither on iMac nor DELL nor lenovo R61.  ubuntu without x however sounds well

[11:14] <ndlovu> I've installed some fonts using font viewer; they show up in openoffice, but not in scribus - any ideas how to fix?
[11:15] <ndlovu> ah... are fonts installed in user or system space?
[11:15] <recon_tv> pingec: easier/lightest was rarely the same, would think the easiest way would be to install a regular web server and tweek it.
[11:15] <chatubuntu> recon_tv,  i tried it, but no success. also Lautstärkeregler does not help
[11:16] <ndlovu> I'm having to run scribus as root or it crashes on 12.04, so that's probably the issue: not finding user-installed fonts
[11:16] <Mikey^> ndlovu: try running it from the commandline and see if u spot any errors
[11:17] <pingec> easiest has precedence
[11:17] <pingec> :D

[11:27] <chaotix> hello, i am having an issue that I cant seem to remedy searching the forums and all of google, and would much appreciate some assistance:  When I got this laptop i installed Ubuntu 10.04 on it, wiping my windows partition, and saved the ISO and sometimes use it in Oracle VM VirtualBox, and would now like to burn it back to my hard drive to use for dual boot.  I used gparted to make the necessary NTFS partition, but i cannot s
[11:27] <chaotix> eem to make a bootable drive out of the image.  I have made attempts with UNetBootin, TuxBoot, and from the terminal, and my ISO does not show up in the Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator tool... I do not know what I am doing wrong.  If someone can try to help me, i will do my best to provide them with every detail they need...  Thanks in advance
[11:28] <chaotix> The iso is a good image, and works, i can easily use it and get the installer running for a virtual machine...  i am not able to properly write it to a disk

[11:32] <savr> recon_tv, I'm not stupid lol :P
[11:32] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, is it true that DNS server entries have to be put in /etc/network/interfaces , in 12.04,  rather than /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head ?
[11:33] <chaotix> lol recon_tv
[11:33] <chaotix> :)
[11:33] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, because the latter seems to be working fine here
[11:33] <chaotix> that was cool

[11:34] <chaotix> jw, were you guys here when i asked my question?  i dont want to post it too often  :)
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: afaik it's all in /etc/resolv.conf which is populated by network manager
[11:35] <firas> can u add an entry to grub2 to get ubiquity in oem mode??
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> chaotix: you can run:  apt-cache policy googleearth*    to see where it comes from

[11:37] <savr> thanks
[11:37] <aasd> asd
[11:37] <recon_tv> savr, just asking for you ubuntu version
[11:37] <savr> No LSB modules are available.
[11:37] <savr> 12.4
[11:37] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, yes , static IP
[11:38] <savr> I'm using gedit-gmate
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> savr: then if you set it in /etc/resolv.conf  it will not be touched
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> !info gedit-gmate
[11:38] <firas> can u add an entry to grub2 to get ubiquity in oem mode??
[11:38] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, on the lan, but not on the internet
[11:38] <savr> ActionParsnip, me?
[11:38] <savr> gmate is just some plugins
[11:39] <savr> still the same gedit binary
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> savr: from here: https://github.com/gmate/gmate
[11:39] <tesmonkey> hi all, anyone having issues adding webmin to apt on 12.04 server ?
[11:39] <savr> ActionParsnip, yes
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> savr: we cannot support PPAs here
[11:39] <savr> it isn't a ppa problem
[11:39] <savr> it is a gedit bug
[11:39] <blingbling> ppa = use at your own risk
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> tesmonkey: webmin isn't supported here, nor is it advised on Debian / ubuntu
[11:39] <dpy> yesssss
[11:39] <savr> and it happened before I installed gmate
 asd
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> savr: then I suggest you contact the PPA maintainer
[11:40] <tesmonkey> ActionParsnip: what other webgui can I use for basic stuff ?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> !ebox | tesmonkey
[11:40] <dpy> just installed wine1.5 from the ubuntu wine ppa, works!!! and FL 10 also works!
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> dpy: sweet, add an entry in the appdb to say it works :)
[11:41] <recon_tv> lol, I'm just way to slow
[11:41] <savr> ActionParsnip, it isn't a PPA bug.
[11:41] <savr> gmate is fully working
[11:41] <savr> for some reason gedit is locking it self out of windows management
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> savr: does it happen in Unity2D?
[11:42] <savr> don't know
[11:42] <savr> it happens at radon
[11:42] <recon_tv> savr: error indicates a permission problem
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> savr: then.....try it....
[11:42] <savr> random
[11:42] <asus1025c> what problem(s) does update  xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.15.901-1ubuntu2.2_i386.deb address?
[11:42] <savr> if I reboot it fixes it self
[11:42] <savr> for a while
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> savr: try running Unit2D for a while, see if its ok there
[11:42] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: in what respect ?
[11:43] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: sorry not you
[11:43] <ikonia> asus1025c: in what respect ?
[11:43] <savr> ActionParsnip, I rather reboot than downgrade to 2d for bug testing
[11:43] <savr> sorry
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: its a different Unity bar app
[11:43] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: sorry, wasn't meant for you
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: np :)
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> savr: its only to test.
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> savr: its called 'isolating the issue'
[11:44] <blingbling> unity is designed and optimized for netbook and small screen
[11:44] <asus1025c> ikonia, what problems does xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.15.901-1ubuntu2.2_i386.deb correct?
[11:44] <chaotix> ActionParsnip, i tried unetbootin, and tuxboot...  its a good iso b/c it works with virtualbox...
[11:44] <savr> ActionParsnip, but it is random. it may take a few days to happen again
[11:44] <ikonia> asus1025c: what do you mean, what problem ?
[11:44] <blingbling> ikonia, = acer iconia (spam?)
[11:44] <ikonia> blingbling: sorry what?
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> blingbling: I'd say Lubuntu worked on netbooks better by being lighter and is great on small screens asthe panel is small
[11:45] <recon_tv> savr: probably not random :)
[11:45] <snapdata> Is there any way to back up Ubuntu (12.04) and then restore that backup after reinstalling Ubuntu? I can't install Windows now without uninstalling Ubuntu. I require Windows for my work, unfortunately. :(
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: do you have windows installed presently?
[11:45] <savr> recon_tv, I can't debug anything that triggers it
[11:45] <tesmonkey> ActionParsnip: zentyal seams to be broken ?
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: did you install Ubuntu using wubi?
[11:45] <savr> so the tigger is random
[11:45] <LjL> savr: i can't resolve the issue, but just for my information, have you opened a file on a Samba share in the past with gedit?
[11:45] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: Nope. Ubuntu is the only thing installed.
[11:45] <dr__willis> !backup | savr
[11:46] <savr> LjL, no
[11:46] <dr__willis> !backup | snapdata
[11:46] <dr__willis> wrong nick. ;) sorry
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: then boot to liveCD and resize the Ext4 partition, then install Windows to the free space
[11:46] <LjL> savr: ok. was asking because of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/992095
[11:46] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: The issue is the Windows 7 installer which does not allow you to use custom partitions. (It tries but fails)
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: you can then reboot back to the liveCD and reinstate Grub
[11:46] <asus1025c> ikonia, when an update is released it is because it fixes a problem. My question is very clear, is it not?
[11:46] <snapdata> dr__willis: thak you
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: it does. I've used it
[11:46] <snapdata> dr__willis: thank you*
[11:46] <recon_tv> snapdata, you can save you home folder and use a tool to store all the packages you have added, then you can recreate your ubuntu from scratch
[11:46] <dr__willis> snapdata:  best soltion wuld be to get a second hard drive. :)
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: if you read the screen, it does
[11:47] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: Every time I tried it would give a specific error, after researching the error I found that I have too many partitions for Ubuntu and Windows will not install on top of it.
[11:47] <namoamitabuddha> UPnP failed!
[11:48] <namoamitabuddha> WAN Service not detected
[11:48] <namoamitabuddha> why?
[11:48] <snapdata> Dr_Willis: I have one but I'm still trying to figure out why my second hard drive has swap and boot partitions
[11:48] <snapdata> dr__willis: I have one but I'm still trying to figure out why my second hard drive has swap and boot partitions
[11:49] <Dr_Willis> snapdata:  swap is easy to remake.  /boot/ would only get made if you told it to. If your linux install is using  its own /boot/ then id say its a left over from some other install
[11:49] <recon_tv> snapdata, if it's work related you should probably  buy a non-ome license for windows.
[11:49] <azertyui> hello
[11:49] <asus1025c> can anyone here tell  me what problem(s) does update  xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.15.901-1ubuntu2.2_i386.deb address?
[11:49] <ikonia> asus1025c: it's a software package
[11:49] <savr> I can for example log in to the guest account and have no problems with gedit
[11:50] <Dr_Willis> snapdata:  you could image your linux install to a file. and use it as a vbox hard drive image ;) so you can still run it.
[11:50] <savr> at the same time I have a problem on my account
[11:50] <ikonia> asus1025c: it allows you to use / make the most of the Interl Video card in your machine
[11:50] <savr> and loading all the same plugins in the guest account
[11:50] <azertyui> is there any tool to check on command line the disk micro space before deframenting a disk ?
[11:50] <raptor> hi
[11:50] <snapdata> recon_tv: I'd prefer to not buy it at all, sorry if you have a moral objection to that. :\
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: then backup everything in your user's home folder(s) (which should be backuped up anyway). You can then restore the backup after install
[11:50] <raptor> I have got a Inspiron 6000 dell laptop
[11:50] <asus1025c> ikonia, your answer is not detailed enough . My question is very clear, is it not?
[11:50] <raptor> with 1.6ghz and 2gb
[11:51] <recon_tv> snapdata: it's not moral, it just the easy way.
[11:51] <ikonia> asus1025c: no, hence why I asked you for more detail 3 times
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> raptor: ease up on the ENTER key dude
[11:51] <snapdata> Dr_Willis: that's true.
[11:51] <raptor> can I run the latest ubuntu
[11:51] <raptor> oh sorry
[11:51] <Dr_Willis> raptor:  ive ran on lesser systems.
[11:51] <azertyui> ok patience
[11:51] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: I think that's what I'm going to do.
[11:51] <raptor> will it be smooth ?
[11:52] <snapdata> ActionParsnip, Dr_Willis: Thank you very much to the both of you. :) You've been very helpful. We're lucky to have people like you around here. :)
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> raptor:  it runs fine on my netbook with less stats.
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: we try
[11:53] <raptor> it is 7 years old systm
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> raptor: I run Ubuntu on much less than that, you'll be fine
[11:53] <raptor> also I will be using it from a USB
[11:54] <firas> how to enable oem mode in ubiquity???
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> raptor: that's fine :), I suggest you install preload to help speed things up
[11:54] <raptor> preload ?
[11:54] <raptor> Currently I have linx mint 10 or something on usb
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> firas: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ubiquity/OEM
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> raptor: yes it's a package, install it and it'll help a little
[11:55] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: So to clarify, I won't have any issues just replacing /usr with my backed up /usr after reinstalling?
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> snapdata: you shouldn't need to backup /usr   you may need to backup /etc but definately backup all of $HOME
[11:55] <snapdata> ActionParsnip: alrighty, thank you very much!
[11:56] <raptor> how do you install a package in ubuntu ?
[11:56] <LjL> !software > raptor
[11:56] <chaotix> ActionParsnip, found a package called usb-imaewriter, i think its stock with 12.04(?), im on lucid, i just started the download of usb-imagewritert so "fingers crossed"
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> raptor: mint isn't supported here
[11:57] <firas> ActionParsnip: this page says nothing about HOWTO
[11:58] <chaotix> nope
[11:58] <raptor> yes I mentioned bcz I'm using it currently and want to swtich back to Ubuntu (did used a earlier version 7 or 8 I don't remember
[11:59] <LjL> firas: there is this, but it seems pretty old :( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu_OEM_Installer_Overview
[11:59] <nydel> how to display only hidden files in terminal?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> raptor: the requirements are pretty similar, you'll be ok
[11:59] <nydel> ls ".*" doesn't work
[12:00] <Dr_Willis> nydel:  try the -a option
[12:00] <Mikey^> nydel: ls -a
[12:00] <nydel> that shows hidden & non-hidden
[12:00] <firas> LjL: Ok , but how to add this grub entry?
[12:00] <nydel> i need only hidden
[12:00] <nydel> LjL: hi there!
[12:01] <Dr_Willis> nydel:  so use -a .* ?
[12:01] <recon_tv> nydel , use grep to filter the output
[12:01] <Mikey^> nydel: ls -a | grep ^.
[12:01] <LjL> firas: which grub entry?
[12:01] <Shanth> how to keep xrandr resolution changes permanent.. i'm new to ubuntu  plz someone  tell me easy way...
[12:01] <LjL> nydel, hi
[12:01] <firas> LjL: in the first screenshot
[12:01] <LjL> firas: that's not GRUB, that's the CD bootloader. it should be there by default, if you use the "text install" (which i guess means the Alternate) CD... at least if you use the version the docs mention, which is an older version of Ubuntu.
[12:02] <chaotix> can someone help me to creare a bootable windows usb from ubuntu 10.04?  i have been trying all night, any help would be much appreciado  :)
[12:02] <nydel> Mikey^: doesn't quite work
[12:02] <Dr_Willis> chaotix:  #windows may be able to help better with that.
[12:02] <Dr_Willis> chaotix:  as far as i recall. you can dd the windows 7 iso image to usb and it should work.
[12:03] <nydel> Mikey^: i get the whoel list, all "." colored & every first letter of a non-hidden colored.
[12:03] <firas> Ljl: I mean, if u want to make ur own distro, how to add this option to ubiquity? not how to install in oem

[12:04] <hwilde> if I run nvidia-xconfig it doesn't seem to do shit
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> nydel: it's ok (got LPIA book which  has a bit on regex ;))

[12:06] <hwilde> ok pretend I said some other version
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> hwilde: its not supported
[12:06] <hwilde> how do you figure out which nvidia module to install
[12:06] <hwilde> nvidia-glx 173, 180, 185, 96...
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> hwilde: you won't be able to install anything as the repos are all disabled
[12:06] <Shanth> how to reinstall nvidia
[12:06] <Saw> hi guys, I have a a question about packages. I can see ubuntu got packages specifically for it. What are these? why should I install them and not the "offical" ones? can I install the offical ones anyway?
[12:07] <hwilde> Saw, specifically for what
[12:07]  * blingbling removed the ubuntu software center
[12:07] <hwilde> how does one tell which nvidia module is necessary for EVGA 520
[12:07] <Saw> hwilde - for ubuntu. for example, g++. ubuntu (lucid) got g++ 4.4.3. at GCC website, you can find 4.7. any reason I should use and not the other?
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> Saw:  use whats in the repos.
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> Saw: the packages in the repos are the official ones for Ubuntu, you may add 3rd party sources called PPAs and get newer or different software but there are no guaruntees of safety or functionality
[12:08] <Dr_Willis> Saw:  unless you have some specific needs for newer versions, then theres Unsupported PPA's out for most things.
[12:08] <hwilde> how does one tell which nvidia module is necessary for EVGA 520
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> hwilde: if you upgrade or clean install to Lucid, you will be supported
[12:09] <Saw> what is PPA? (i'm assuming something with package, but still)
[12:09] <jondot_> in 12.04, how can i set the font size in Terminal to be a fraction? i.e. 10.6 ? it was possible in 11.04
[12:09] <hwilde> ActionParsnip, dude that is a generic question
[12:09] <hwilde> when I upgrade or install I will have the same question
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> Saw: its a 3rd party source, managed by some guy giving an extra source for packages
[12:09] <hwilde> how do you tell which nvidia module is necessary for the EVGA 520 graphics card
[12:09] <vits> hi guys, i have one question.how to download the deb packages using apt command
[12:10] <Saw> ActionParsnip I ment the initials, I did read what you wrote :} I have to say though it sounds a bit weird. Is there any particular reason g++ (in our example) wouldn't work on ubuntu, but work on other distributions?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> hwilde: your chip is newish so you will need the 295 driver, this will not be installable as there are no sources for packages
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | Saw
[12:10] <hwilde> vits, --download-only
[12:10] <hwilde> ActionParsnip, how did u figure out it is the 295 driver
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> vits: sudo apt-get --reinstall -d install packagename
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> hwilde: its a newish chip so the latest will be fine. My 6150LE works with the 295 too
[12:11] <Saw> you're saying if I use packages from ubuntu, and I have a problem with it, I'll get ubuntu support for it?
[12:11] <hwilde> no you will be told to upgrade :-D
[12:11] <LjL> Saw, it's still all voluntary support so you don't really have a guarantee of any kind unless you actually sign up for paid support from Canonical
[12:12] <ufrgs> Hello guys!
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> Saw: you will get support here for the packages from the official repos
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> Saw: as long as your release isn't EOL, you'll get support
[12:12] <ufrgs> Does anybody knows which font does Firefox uses at its source code view pages?
[12:12] <Saw> hwilde - why? lucid got LTS, it's still supported, isn't it? :P
[12:13] <hwilde> don't mind me i'm just mad at my graphics card.
[12:13] <Saw> ActionParsnip - EOL? and won't I get support from the offical repos if I use PPA as well?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Saw: indeed. Lucid is EOL in April 2014
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Saw: EOL = end of life = not supoprted
[12:14] <Saw> ActionParsnip - 2015 for server :P
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Saw: we cannot support PPAs here but the official packages, we can
[12:14] <Saw> (2013 for desktop iric btw)
[12:14] <Saw> ActionParsnip - cool, got it :} thanks!
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Saw: yeah copied the wrong date
[12:16] <gizero> Hi. Which printer manufacturer would you recommend for good linux support for colour printers? Preferably multi functional devices.
[12:16] <hwilde> our multi kyocera taskalfa works fine
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> gizero:  id have to say HP or Brother. but id reserach anything befor you buy.
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> gizero:  the more complex the gizmo the more likely some parts of it wont work
[12:18] <m477> is it normal that ctrl+r sometimes brakes?
[12:18] <gilmo> no problems with HP for me
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> m477:  breaks what?
[12:18] <ufrgs> Impressive how good is Ubuntu getting!
[12:18] <m477> Dr_Willis: stops working
[12:18] <chaotix> hi, i am trying to make a bootable usb drive of a windows ISO and i am in Ubuntu 10.04...  unetbootin, tuxboot, and usb-startupdisk-creator are  no go...  dows anyone know how i can do this?
[12:18] <compdoc> it is good
[12:18] <m477> Dr_Willis: in way that doesnt respond for any key
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> m477:  what when/where/who breaks?
[12:18] <m477> and u have to kill it
[12:19] <m477> ctrl+r, I dont know how it is called
[12:19] <ufrgs> For the first time I could really fell why someone would still using Windows question myself.
[12:19] <m477> in bash
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> m477:  you mean the flow control feature? ctrl-q/ctrl-r ?
[12:19] <gilmo> ufrgs: Diablo 3 :P
[12:19] <m477> Dr_Willis: indeed
[12:20] <ufrgs> gilmo, lol
[12:23] <Taneb> Is there a way to hide the unity thing on the left when running a full screen program?
[12:23] <compdoc> Taneb, there is a setting to have it auto hide
[12:23] <Sidewinder> chaotix, I don't have your answer, sorry. Have you asked in #windows?
[12:23] <Taneb> compdoc, thanks
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> chaotix: tried a different USB device? I assume you used the same storage each time...
[12:23] <gilmo> chaotix have you tried 'dd' ?
[12:24] <Sidewinder> chaotix, Or, you could always call Microsoft's support phone number. Personally, you paid for a product, I think you're entitled to support.
[12:25] <chaotix> gilmo, im not sure if i did it correctly, i have never done itr before...  do you have a link with a 'dd' tutorial?
[12:25] <chaotix> Sidewinder, i bought the laptop at a pawn shop used...  theyre pricks
[12:25] <chaotix> i doubt they will help
[12:25] <chaotix> dell miht help though
[12:26] <Sidewinder> I hope it was cheap. ;-)
[12:26] <chaotix> it was $40
[12:26] <chaotix> and well worth it
[12:26] <gilmo> chaotix: ehm, not really. 'man dd' should help you. if= and of= should be the options you are looking for
[12:26] <bertieb> Hey all, is there an issue with the repos at the moment? ppa.launchpad.net, archive/security.ubuntu.com etc are timing out here across 2 ISPs
[12:26] <chaotix> for the linux use i got out of it it was worth the 40
[12:26] <chaotix> :)
[12:26] <chaotix> thanks ill check it out
[12:28] <chris|> chaotix, when installing windows you need to also consider the cost of brain damage
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> chaotix: could install using CD
[12:28] <chaotix> i guess it could be the usb drive too...  but i duno because i only have one drive that is big enough for winDOWN...  the rest are 2gb
[12:28] <chaotix> and i have no cd's
[12:28] <chaotix> lol
[12:28] <Sidewinder> bertieb, I don't know about everyone else but for years now, I have found launchpad pages always seem to take forever to load. You're mileage may vary, though. :)
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> chaotix: CDs are cheap dude
[12:28] <chaotix> i guess i could try to burn a gparted live usb, since thats kinda fast...  and see if it woorks
[12:29] <chaotix> ok
[12:29] <bertieb> Sidewinder: cheers, it's causing apt to fail at an inconvenient time though! (Is there a convenient time for apt-get to fail?)
[12:29] <lordbah> I told Ubuntu Software Center to install libapache2-mod-mono and it's hung partway through. dkpg.log last line is "status half-configured mono-apache-server4 2.10-1build1". Suggestions? This is on 12.04.
[12:30] <killer> hi guys...how to play cd or dvd in ubuntu
[12:30] <Sidewinder> chaotix, I seem to remember that gparted used to provide a "Gparted Boot Disk", but I forget where I found it..
[12:30] <chaotix> ok so im onna try a few things...  love you all for trying, and for the ideas..  i may be back...  pray that i am not back
[12:31] <ardian> how can I install gnome classic in Xubuntu ?
[12:31] <chaotix> Sidewinder, i have a gparted live usb
[12:31] <Sidewinder> Good luck!
[12:31] <chaotix> and the iso on my desktop
[12:31] <chaotix> ok
[12:31] <chaotix> fingers crossed that i wont be back
[12:31] <Sidewinder> Wish I had some money on my desktop. :)
[12:32] <Zally666> my apt-get update is broken
[12:32] <chaotix> i refuse to sleep till i get this done, :) ...  so lets hope it works
[12:32] <lelamal> !details | killer
[12:32] <chaotix> i have 3 things to try
[12:32] <chaotix> bye guys
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> !dvd | killer
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> Zally666:  the apt servers seem real slow right now - not sure whats going on
[12:35] <tailf> so i am about to back up some files using rsync. does anyone recommend any arguments besides -r (recursive, to include everything in a directory)?
[12:37] <compdoc> tailf, Ive never had to use -r
[12:38] <tailf> compdoc: so you only ever rsync single files?
[12:39] <jm> I use -a which includes -r I think
[12:39] <yeats> tailf: cp/scp suffice for single files
[12:39] <compdoc> tailf, not at all - it just copies all files and folders in the path
[12:40] <compdoc> one of my commands:   rsync -avnX --ignore-existing --progress  --del   source    target
[12:40] <yeats> tailf: I tend to do 'rsync -av <source> <dest>'
[12:40] <jm> no -z?
[12:41] <nydel> ActionParsnip: to list all files that are not directories?
[12:42] <nydel> anyone, how do i list all files that are not directories
[12:42] <compdoc> there is a -r, but Ive never had to use it - strange, huh?
[12:52] <sddsds> canonical fuck
[12:54] <Sidewinder> There's so many 'cli fanatics, around here. :)
[12:54] <IdleOne> !language | sddsds
[12:54] <recon_tv> sddsds: are you sure the servers are down, I'd be surprised, been using them all day
[12:54] <tailf> sidewinter: my username works well to disguise the fact i am still a linux amateur :D
[12:54] <bastidrazor> Sidewinder: reading comprehension makes cli easy. manpages tell all.
[12:54] <iceroot> sddsds: which ubuntu-version?
[12:54] <sddsds> servers updates precise pangolin goes broken
[12:54] <sddsds> i cannot update
[12:54] <sddsds> fuck canonical
[12:54] <Sidewinder> bastidrazor, That presupposes that one can read..
[12:54] <iceroot> :)
[12:54] <Sidewinder> Heh,.
[12:54] <iceroot> always to much patient ...
[12:54] <zastaph> my .bash_profile is not executed when I open Terminal in Ubuntu
[12:54] <samba35> how to check all installed packages and their time stamp
[12:54] <Shanth> how to fix this in ubuntu software center " Waiting for apt-get to exit "
[12:54] <bastidrazor> zastaph: there is no .bash_profile in your home unless you've created it. in that case you need to have it sourced from .bashrc or .profile
[12:55] <zastaph> bastidrazor, seems .bashrc is sourced from .profile, but it's not run either
[12:55] <recon_tv> sddsds: with an attitude like that and the lack of info I doth anyone will help
[12:56] <bastidrazor> zastaph: are you running bash?
[12:57] <zastaph> bastidrazor, i don't know, how do I find out?
[13:01] <gilmo> zastaph, try with 'grep -i YOUR_USERNAME /etc/passwd'
[13:01] <gilmo> the end of the line will tell you
[13:02] <sk1special_> how come everytime i open the channel list my proccesor usage jumps to 100 percent and cant type anything anymore? the screen does not freeze i can move windows around etc..just no typing/scrolling/clicking menus

[13:03] <raven> id like to do a visualization of an audio file in a video - is there any way to use visualization plugins of audio players non-linear to generate a video containing levels/spectrums?
[13:05] <savr> do women use ubuntu?
[13:05] <savr> :P
[13:05] <sk1special_> raven: couldnt you just play the audio file with visualization full screened / using video screen capture and edit that into your video?
[13:06] <raven> sk1special_ would be nice to do it non linear because theese audio files are about 2-3 hours
[13:08] <tailf> savr: what exactly are these "women" you speak of?
[13:08] <sk1special_> ah..apparently im retarded. what do you mean non linear?
[13:08] <savr> who knows lol
[13:09] <isabel> hi, i have trouble connecting Canon LBP 3100 printer to Ubuntu 12.04, can anyone help?
[13:09] <jonasthomas-> I'm trying to get chatzilla to beep... so far no joy... just installed beep on 10.03 and it seems I can get that do to anything.... Speakers on my toshiba laptop seem fine.
[13:09] <cacad> Hi
[13:10] <cacad> damn
[13:10] <sk1special_> like you dont want it to play the whole file in a row? youd just cut out the times you want then yeah? using a vid editor?
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> isabel: did you check the canon uk website for drivers?
[13:11] <isabel> ActionParsnip: Yes, i downloaded the drivers and installed it, the printer is a usb printer
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> isabel: when you power it up, does the system react?
[13:13] <raven> id like to do a visualization of an audio file in a video - is there any way to use visualization plugins of audio players non-linear to generate a video containing levels/spectrums?
[13:13] <isabel> ActionParsnip: not sure what you mean, but when i turn the printer on nothing happens in ubuntu
[13:14] <solderblob> oi
[13:14] <IdleOne> isabel: Did you add the printer via the Add printer tool in system settings?
[13:14] <isabel> IdleOne: Yes
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> isabel: ok then in the cog menu, there is a printer app you can use there
[13:15] <isabel> ActionParsnip: ok
[13:17] <isabel> ActionParsnip: i deleted the printers i added there, and when turning the printer on it reappears in the Printing app under the cog menu
[13:17] <mafiaboy> hi guys.......can a virus affect system if it runs through wine?
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> isabel: or you can use the cups web ui (old skool):  http://localhost:631
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> mafiaboy: it will affect only the ~/.wine folder
[13:18] <isabel> ActionParsnip: is that what you mean the system react?
[13:18] <mafiaboy> ActionParsnip: it means my normal ubuntu apps will  run perfectly
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> mafiaboy: yes, windows viruses won't affect Ubuntu
[13:19] <isabel> ActionParsnip: Looks like it added itself in there, but when printing a test page it just states "Processing - Sending data to printer."
[13:19] <bikegmb> Hi, I need some help to configure my ubuntu 12.04 to vpntunnel.se
[13:20] <isabel> ActionParsnip: and nothing is printing, is there something i can check somewhere?
[13:20] <galvao> bom dia
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> isabel: remove the printer, then add it manually, specifying the driver
[13:21] <zastaph> according to this http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/32599/auto-running-bash-script-on-login .bashrc isn't run when starting Terminal from Unity .. i think that's my problem, but I'm not sure what the solution is
[13:21] <isabel> ActionParsnip: ok, but there is only a japanese driver for my model not a uk one? can i use the japenese driver?
[13:22] <galvao> to com um probleminha aqui. Quando coloco no gnome classic aparece junto o unity nao aparece o menu lacarte  e o ubuntu tweek nao edita o unitty. alguem pode me ajudar?
[13:22] <solderblob> ubuntu repos seem laggy this morning
[13:23] <solderblob> uber slow on apt-get update
[13:23] <lelamal> !br | galvao
[13:23] <solderblob> taking mings to update repos
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> isabel: as long as the driver values are right, sure why not. Have you checked the openprinting database too
[13:23] <solderblob> mings=minutes
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> solderblob: try using apt-fast
[13:23] <galvao> obrigado
[13:24] <isabel> ActionParsnip: no, where wil i get that?
[13:24] <solderblob> lulz
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> isabel: its a website
[13:24] <isabel> ActionParsnip: ok, i will google it
[13:24] <solderblob> !help
[13:25] <solderblob> !info
[13:25] <delac> what parameters does udev rule pass to the (RUN+=) script?
[13:26] <isabel> ActionParsnip: When selecting the driver it select by default this one "Canon LBP3100/LBP3108/LBP3150 CAPT (UK)" , my printer is a LBP 3100, so this one should work?
[13:26] <IdleOne> it should
[13:27] <raven> id like to do a visualization of an audio file in a video - is there any way to use visualization plugins of audio players non-linear to generate a video containing levels/spectrums?
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> isabel: makes sense, could try the 3000 driver too
[13:27] <isabel> ActionParsnip: IdleOne: when printing test page, its states "Processing - Sending data to printer." is there not a problem elsewhere? its connected via usb
[13:28] <solderblob> Epson makes a wonderfully compatible printer, HP also ( I know this is not fixing the issue).
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> HP make great Linux drivers via the HPLIP project
[13:29] <solderblob> ^
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> isabel: did you check the open printing foundation website?
[13:29] <solderblob> stay away from dell, you never know what you are going to get...
[13:30] <solderblob> (regarding printers)
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> solderblob: probably a rebadged Canon
[13:30] <isabel> Yes , in know, never had any problems with HP printers, unfortunately i am stuck with this cheap canon laser printer
[13:30] <solderblob> I think mine was a rebadged Lexmark, but yep something like that..
[13:30] <solderblob> isabel, totally understand..  Not trying to troll you.  wish I could help
[13:31] <isabel> It just keep on stating "Processing - Sending data to printer."
[13:31] <isabel> with the Canon LBP3000 CAPT ver.1.5 driver too
[13:32] <Crypto_> anybody helping here?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> Crypto_: many
[13:32] <isabel> when changing the driver in the printers properties must a restart something?
[13:32] <Crypto_> I accidentally set grub to boot memtest by default
[13:32] <solderblob> Canon LBP3000 CAPT is different than Canon LBP3000?
[13:32] <solderblob> Crypto_, lulz
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> Crypto_: then you will need to hold shift at boot and select the kernel
[13:32] <Crypto_> cant
[13:32] <solderblob> esc?
[13:32] <Crypto_> it just boots to memtest even when I try
[13:33] <solderblob> before boot, esc, no?
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Crypto_: then you will need to chroot using liveCD/USB and change the default there
[13:33] <solderblob> ^is easy todo and good practice
[13:33] <Crypto_> none of the keys to go to the kernel menu work
[13:33] <Crypto_> I'll try the live cd
[13:33] <IdleOne> isabel: have a look at this page http://www.unixmen.com/installation-canon-lbp2900-on-linux/ not sure if it will help but worth a try
[13:34] <solderblob> Crypto_, did you try hitting esc key before it boots to memtest? to get into grub...
[13:34] <Crypto_> tried a million times
[13:34] <Crypto_> I saw the purple screen flash once a few times, but memtest just ends up booting anyways
[13:35] <solderblob> IdleOne, Canon LBP3000 Printer, ubuntu 10.04.. http://ur1.ca/99q57 , she try that?
[13:35] <isabel> IdleOne: thanks, i have went through the instructions on this page,but get stuck with same results
[13:36] <IdleOne> isabel: sorry, wish i could be more help. I gave up on Canon a couple years back.
[13:37] <solderblob> Crypto_, I would do as ActionParsnip said, boot to live cd and chroot the filesystem on the drive, then just edit grub.
[13:37] <Crypto_> how do I chroot?
[13:37] <raven> id like to do a visualization of an audio file in a video - is there any way to use visualization plugins of audio players non-linear to generate a video containing levels/spectrums?
[13:37] <solderblob> lemme find a howto
[13:37] <isabel> ActionParsnip: is there not naybe a issue with sub port?
[13:39] <solderblob> Crypto_, basic idea http://ur1.ca/99q60 .  Just don't do anything but edit the file and reboot.  no sudo apt-get updates etc...
[13:39] <raven> id like to do a visualization of an audio file in a video - is there any way to use visualization plugins of audio players non-linear to generate a video containing levels/spectrums?
[13:39] <isabel> ActionParsnip: is there not maybe a issue with usb port?
[13:39] <samba35> how to check which packages are recently installed or update ?
[13:40] <solderblob> samba35, sudo apt-get install synaptic , imo
[13:40] <solderblob> or
[13:40] <solderblob> sudo dpkg -l
[13:40] <samba35> ok
[13:40] <solderblob> for a list of packages installed
[13:41] <SolarisBoy> samba35: take a look at '/var/log/apt/term.log'
[13:41] <solderblob> /var/log/dpkg.log too
[13:42] <solderblob> Crypto_, I think you could  just boot to a live cd, mount the drive and find the grub config file, edit that way.  been a while since Ive needed to do that.
[13:42] <boritek> hi there. On Precise my camera doesnt work after install (it seemingly worked during install where i can make a user photo!! and some more releases back it worked out of the box). How can I fix it?
[13:42] <Crypto_> yeah
[13:42] <Crypto_> I had actually already tried that but couldnt run update-grub... chrooting should fix that
[13:42] <Crypto_> thanks
[13:42] <solderblob> its still cool to chroot, kind of fun, that is how you change the password if you forget it.
[13:42] <samba35> ok thanks
[13:42] <solderblob> np
[13:43] <c0deMaster> how to run applications in a sandbox?
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> boritek: does it work in cheese?
[13:44] <solderblob> c0deMaster, could you be more specific?
[13:45] <solderblob> c0deMaster, you mean like http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man8/sandbox.8.html
[13:45] <karol_> hello, I've run into a disturbing problem installing ubuntu.
[13:45] <solderblob> karol_, just say it.
[13:45] <raptor> hi what is the default username and passoword for ubuntu 12.04
[13:45] <raptor> I just installed it on USB and it is asking me for a username and password
[13:45] <karol_> The install runs "run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly"
[13:45] <recon_tv> raptor, the one you entered :)
[13:45] <karol_> and freezes
[13:45] <boritek> ActionParsnip: no not in Cheese (all button and menu are greyed out) not in vlc, not in skype
[13:45] <solderblob> ubuntu, no password, no?
[13:46] <raptor> I just installed it on USb
[13:46] <karol_> i mean it's still responsive, but i'm waiting like half an hour for it to run
[13:46] <recon_tv> raptor: then there is no password i think
[13:46] <c0deMaster> solderblob, if there is backdoor or malicious code somewhere but I don't know which files so I need to open or execute applications without infecting my system
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> boritek: then run:  lsusb   and use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[13:46] <raptor> what about the username
[13:46] <jiohdi> raptor, you have to supply the user name and password as you install
[13:46] <solderblob> ah...
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> boritek: make sure you are fully updated
[13:46] <kimspindel> solderblob: i like your nick :)
[13:46] <raptor> I did it with Universal-USB-Installer-<IP_ADDRESS>
[13:46] <boritek> ActionParsnip: ok, I have updated today
[13:47] <solderblob> [:
[13:47] <jiohdi> raptor, as part of the install process, you give it the username and password
[13:47] <jiohdi> otherwise it does not have one
[13:47] <solderblob> ^
[13:47] <raptor> It's a live USb
[13:47] <OerHeks> raptor, Try 'ubuntu' with an empty password.
[13:48] <recon_tv> raptor: no idea,  never needed one on a flash stick
[13:48] <jiohdi> live has no password, only once you install
[13:48] <karol_> anyone any clue how long can /etc/cron.hourly take to run?
[13:48] <karol_> and why even run it during install?
[13:48] <raptor> so should I try ubuntu without any password
[13:48] <recon_tv> karol_: I would guess hourly
[13:48] <solderblob> raptor, which screen are getting stuck on, here is a screen by screen howto http://ur1.ca/99q7g
[13:48] <raptor> is there any irc client for andriod
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> raptor: press CTRL+ALT+F1 on the login screen and run:  passwd ubuntu     then set a password and press CTRL+ALT+F7 and log in
[13:48] <jiohdi> raptor why do you need a password?
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> raptor: I use andchat
[13:49] <raptor> http://static.howtoforge.com/images/the_perfect_desktop_ubuntu_12.04_precise_pangolin/big/12.jpg
[13:49] <solderblob> ActionParsnip, does andchat work with proxies?
[13:49] <solderblob> lookin
[13:49] <raptor> no username is written there
[13:49] <solderblob> oh..really?
[13:49] <Xeli> Hello, I've just gotten a new soundcard, which outputs sounds just however I cannot adjust the volume anywhere but alsamixer
[13:50] <solderblob> raptor, this is the live cd?
[13:50] <Xeli> and even there the master volume only adjusts the volume marginally
[13:50] <Xeli> any tips?
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> solderblob: no idea, i don't use a proxy
[13:50] <solderblob> ActionParsnip, thx
[13:50] <karol_> i finish all steps of configuration and then i just wait for the system to install
[13:50] <solderblob> how did you make the usb? raptor ?
[13:50] <raptor> yes I downloaded this file ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso
[13:50] <solderblob> k
[13:50] <karol_> after fetching tsome packages from the internet
[13:50] <raptor> using Universal-USB-Installer-<IP_ADDRESS>
[13:51] <jiohdi> raptor, you can install it back onto the usb stick and it will then have an actual password
[13:51] <solderblob> ^
[13:51] <karol_> the installer runs "run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly"
[13:51] <solderblob> raptor, you using window$ to make the cd, or linux?
[13:51] <karol_> and freezes
[13:51] <raptor> windows 7
[13:51] <solderblob> try lili usb creator
[13:52] <solderblob> http://www.linuxliveusb.com/
[13:52] <solderblob> without persistence
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> raptor: have you used the same USB device each time?
[13:52] <raptor> Universal was mentioned on ubuntu help
[13:52] <solderblob> mm, Ive only had luck with lili on windows, just my advice...
[13:53] <raptor> I have used universal with ther  distro as well such as fedora, linux mint etx
[13:53] <jiohdi> unetbootin works more than 50% of the time
[13:53] <solderblob> ^I use that on windows
[13:54] <solderblob> I mean, I use that on LInux*
[13:54] <solderblob> unetbootin
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> I always use unetbootin, works great
[13:54] <nischay> Hi ! Guys :)
[13:54] <solderblob> ohai
[13:55] <solderblob> so, are the ops in here Canonical or community, just curious...
[13:56] <chu> Community.
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> solderblob: there are ops who keep order
[13:56] <solderblob> cool
[13:56] <chu> (There are possibly a few Canonical). This is off-topic though, come join us in #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to talk :)
[13:57] <solderblob> cause /topic says Official Support.. made me wonder
[13:57] <nischay> I need some help about ics ipmasq in ubuntu 12.04 and making IPMASQ permanent in ubuntu so i can share  my internet connection ppp0 with my eth0 network here is want i done but not successful http://paste.ubuntu.com/995851/
[13:57] <solderblob> chu, k
[13:57] <Crypto_> im getting dome errors running commands after doing chroot
[13:57] <Crypto_> some*
[13:57] <zastaph> is it not possible to have Terminal launched via Unity load .bashrc or .bash_profile or .profile? neither are loaded for me
[13:58] <zastaph> because my alias isn't loaded
[13:58] <solderblob> what errors?
[13:58] <anos> how to add a directory shortcut to 12.04 side panel??????????
[13:58] <zykotick9> zastaph: if you type "alias" is anything listed?
[13:59] <zastaph> zykotick, duh yes.. it seems i have an error in my .bashrc somewhere
[13:59] <Crypto_> http://pastebin.com/xaBUCA8F
[13:59] <solderblob> anos, ln -s
[13:59] <recon_tv> anos: dragging not work?
[14:01] <nischay> Pls help me
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> anos: the only way I know is to make a .desktop in /usr/share/applications/ to run the nautilus command with what you want. Or you can grab the file from omgubuntu which gives a nice right click menu and add what you desire
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> zastaph: if you run: source ~/.bashrc    is it different?
[14:02] <solderblob> Crypto_, what about vim? nano?
[14:02] <solderblob> sudo nano grub
[14:02] <solderblob> nano whatever
[14:03] <recon_tv> anos, you could add a custom launcher , nautilus /my/desired/dir
[14:03] <solderblob> /etc/default/grub I think, no?
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> zastaph: I use this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/995855/
[14:04] <solderblob> Crypto_, edit GRUB_DEFAULT=3
[14:04] <solderblob> GRUB_DEFAULT=1
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> zastaph: you can add to the file as you want to add more folders, in Quantal the bookmarks list makes that list up (dead handy)
[14:04] <solderblob> or whatever it should be
[14:05] <solderblob> Crypto_, then sudo update-grub
[14:05] <solderblob> after you save
[14:05] <Crypto_> done, thanks!
[14:05] <solderblob> np
[14:06] <zastaph> ActionParsnip, alias is the same.. but what puzzles me is that my #automatically do an ls after each cd... cd() {} function isn't active before I manually do source .bashrc
[14:06] <zastaph> ActionParsnip, but my aliases are loaded properly even before i manually source
[14:09] <zastaph> yes my .bashrc is loaded
[14:09] <zastaph> but the function has to be sourced for it to be active
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> zastaph: do you have a ~/.profile with an if statement in it?
[14:10] <solderblob> quiet in here
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> zastaph: like this one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/995868/

[14:21] <delac> nonblocking way to get state of wwan (3G connection) for use in bash script?
[14:22] <kgenozuke> สวัสดีครับ
[14:22] <kgenozuke> ใครเป็นคนไทยบ้าง ?
[14:22] <solderblob> shalom
[14:22] <Zentaur> i'm installing 12.04 right now in a raid1
[14:22] <Un_Bagels> ActionParsnip, GeForce.  but i would have to open my case, i forget what version no
[14:22] <karthick87> I am going to install ubuntu 12.04 in all the new systems in my office. can some suggest me some good partition schema? Its 2GB RAM & 250 GB HDD..
[14:22] <solderblob> Karmaon, dualboot?
[14:22] <kayden_kross> soderblob: it says no protocol specified
[14:23] <solderblob> kayden_kross, did you logout and login?
[14:23] <Zentaur> when i get to the partitioning screen in the 12.04 installation i think it's quite strange
[14:23] <szerzetes> lspci say lot of things, but tuner not
[14:23] <kayden_kross> i used su
[14:23] <solderblob> Zentaur, dual boot?
[14:23] <Zentaur> it recognizes two disks
[14:23] <Zentaur> yesit's dual boot too
[14:23] <solderblob> kayden_kross, I think you need to logout, I dont think you can launch gui apps when you su, not sure though
[14:23] <nischay> hello pls help me :((
[14:23] <kayden_kross> ok
[14:23] <szerzetes> ops.... i installed tvtime, and w_scan can scan chanels
[14:24] <Zentaur> could anybody help me with the installation?
[14:25] <tailf> anyone know why a command such as "xrandr --output HDMI3 --primary" would execute in a terminal but not work if run in crontab?
[14:25] <ikonia> Zentaur: what's the issue ?
[14:25] <solderblob> Zentaur, there is a little slider thing that shows you windows on the left and ubuntu on the right, you can adjust that, 250 gb is fine
[14:25] <ikonia> tailf: crontab does not have your environment setup
[14:25] <ikonia> tailf: eg: when you run it's managing YOUR enviornment, when crontab does it, it's no-ones
[14:25] <solderblob> Zentaur, you can also do this http://ur1.ca/99qm3
[14:25] <solderblob> the slider is easier
[14:25] <solderblob> imo
[14:26] <tailf> ikonia: ah, ok. does that mean i should somehow set up an environment with crontab?
[14:26] <Zentaur> ikonia:  i have two disks as raid1
[14:26] <ikonia> tailf: not really, why are you trying to run that as cron
[14:26] <karthick87> I am going to install ubuntu 12.04 in all the new systems in my office. can some suggest me some good partition schema? Its 2GB RAM & 250 GB HDD..
[14:26] <sasa_vu> has anyone trouble with Synaptic and download speed today? Very very slow...
[14:26] <szerzetes> solderblob, which program do you use to watch tuner?
[14:26] <solderblob> Zentaur, a video howto http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ek2pdr4nGbc
[14:26] <Un_Bagels> HELP! I ran the latest updates, and now my Displays option won't let me set a resolution beyond 1024
[14:27] <ikonia> Zentaur: so what's the problem
[14:27] <solderblob> szerzetes, tvtime, which is why I suggested it
[14:27] <ikonia> karthick87: partition schema is personal to you
[14:27] <tailf> ikonia: i just want my right monitor to be set as the primary but on reboot my computer always sets the left one. thus i wanted to run that with @reboot in crontab so i could have the right monitor as primary without having to run a command manually each time
[14:27] <solderblob> Kartagis, the ram is fine
[14:27] <ikonia> tailf: can you not hardcode this into the xorg.conf ?
[14:27] <szerzetes> I see, thax! :)
[14:27] <Zentaur> the problem is that the partitioning screen shows the partitions twice
[14:27] <ikonia> Zentaur: what type of raid is it
[14:28] <Zentaur> raid 1
[14:28] <ikonia> solderblob: can you stop dishing out random advice to people and actually try to listen to the problems
[14:28] <tailf> ikonia: i guess i could give that a go. i wasn't really sure on the most efficient solution
[14:28] <ikonia> Zentaur: is it hardware/software/fakeraid ?
[14:28] <solderblob> ikonia, piss off, I am listen, thank you
[14:28] <ikonia> tailf: if it was my machine, that' show I'd do it, hardcode my displsy settings
[14:28] <solderblob> ikonia, is right, its a personal choice, chose how much you want for linux and it will do the partition stuff for you with the space you give it.
[14:28] <ikonia> solderblob: drop the language/attitude
[14:28] <Zentaur> hardware (as i always made) :)
[14:28] <solderblob> ikonia, drop the advice than,
[14:28] <paissad> hello guys,i would like to know whether or not it is possible to automate the installation of "phpmyadmin" for example by doing something like this   "apt-get install phpmyadmin -y" | cat <<"eof" "yes eof"  something like that
[14:28] <solderblob> dishing, psh
[14:28] <ikonia> solderblob: it wasn't advice - I'm telling you to do it
[14:29] <solderblob> Im sayin no
[14:29] <ikonia> Zentaur: is it hardware on a motherboard, or a seperate command
[14:29] <paissad> i have to write the command into a script, so i don't want to do manual stuffs
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> paissad:  why do you need the eof stuff?
[14:29] <israel__> paissad: you can do it with a script
[14:29] <karthick87> ikonia: For a good working system.. 1GB boot, 2GB Swap & Remaining root / .. is this ok ?
[14:29] <paissad> israel__: ok,  would you like to give me the command if ever you know it, please :
[14:29] <ikonia> karthick87: 1gb boot is waayyy too big,
[14:30] <ikonia> karthick87: I've never run a /boot larger than 200mb
[14:30] <Zentaur> it is hardware motherboard
[14:30] <JuggaloXX> hello, would any one be able to point me in the right direction to get usb 3.0 working on 12.04 LTS. everything works but my usb 3.0. i can see the hub in lsusb but ti does not detect anything plugged into it.
[14:30] <ikonia> Zentaur: ok, so that's most likley not hardware raid but a technology called "fake raid"
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> i got a /boot/ thats several gb.. but thats because its holding several ISO files of other disrtos for testing. ;)
[14:30] <zykotick9> karthick87: barring RAID or other special filesystem requirements, why have a separate /boot at all?
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> JuggaloXX:  for my system - usb3 works fine. ;()
[14:31] <ikonia> Zentaur: do you have any other OS on this machine at this time ?
[14:31] <ikonia> Zentaur: eg: do you have windows installed using raid1
[14:31] <Zentaur> yes i have dual boot with win

[14:31] <ikonia> Zentaur: this could be a problem I'm sorry to say
[14:31] <JuggaloXX> Dr_Willis, i realize they work for some but not others. i have a new Elietebook 8560p here, now reading the reviews usb 3.0 was reported to work fine on 11.10. so i assumed 12.04 LTS would work
[14:31] <ikonia> Zentaur: fake raid on Linux is a very poor supported technology
[14:32] <kayden_kross> Hi i am getting this error
[14:32] <kayden_kross> (gedit:2066): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.32.1/./gobject/gsignal.c:2455: signal `child-removed' is invalid for instance `0xf258c0'
[14:32] <ikonia> Zentaur: a lot of the fake raid controllers just don't work
[14:32] <ikonia> karthick87: what areyou trying to do ?
[14:32] <Zentaur> it was no problem with suse or ubuntu 11.10
[14:32] <ikonia> Zentaur: that's interesting, so you've had it working wiht 11.10, that's a good sign
[14:32] <kayden_kross> also this

[14:34] <JuggaloXX> however i cannot find it to mount it. the same drive and ports work on windows

[14:35] <Dr_Willis> kayden_kross:  warnings are normally not fatle.
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> fatele.. err.. deadly. ;)
[14:35] <kayden_kross> Dr_Willis: the colours that i get are wierd

[14:37] <Dr_Willis> warnings are not really errors.. but id say make a new user. see if they have the same issue kayden_kross
[14:37] <kayden_kross> i made a new user as told by solderblob
[14:37] <kayden_kross> but still i get the same errors
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> nyuszika7h:  the system/pcspkr  beeping has been disabled by default i thought in ubuntu and X for several releaes.. - i do recall someone in here the other day fighting to turn OFF the system bell.

[14:39] <kayden_kross> http://pastebin.com/2JwNWkAb
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> nyuszika7h:  You may want to check askubuntu.com to see if anyone has some postings on the topic. Personally i always disable that beeping.
[14:39] <nyuszika7h> Ok
[14:39] <kayden_kross> Dr_Willis : please have a look at this

[14:44] <Dr_Willis> nyuszika7h:  also test if beeping works from the console - so X is not messing with it.

[14:44] <Dr_Willis> nischay:  last i messed with that was by following the Ip-masquerading howto.. like 7+ yrs ago.
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> !ics
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> is all i know on the topic these days.
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> ive heard some of the firewalling gui tools can enable it with just a few clicks.
[14:45] <Un_Bagels> XRANDR can't find my display.  I have a VGA monitor attached to an NVidia GeForce max output 1600x900.  It worked yesterday, but an update broke it.  PLEASE HELP :(
[14:45] <zykotick9> nyuszika7h: verify that Beep isn't mutted or turned down in "alsamixer" as well.
[14:46] <raptor_> hi
[14:47] <raptor_> I tried the LinuxLive USB Creator 2.8.12 it only lengthed  the bootup but still I'm stuck at login screen
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> raptor_:  it only did what?
[14:47] <raptor_> increased the bootup time
[14:48] <raptor_> it is asking for a username and passowrd which I haven't set
[14:49] <zykotick9> raptor_: if it's livemedia try "ubuntu" with no password.  if it's after an install - username and password is one of the questions.
[14:49] <raptor_> I did try that
[14:51] <ZaNeIuM> if you have someone use putty to enter your box, is there a way to see what they are doing?
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> only time ive seen the live cd ask for a name/pass - was when it was a bad burn
[14:51] <gccster> guys
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> ZaNeIuM:  they are 'ssh'ing into your box. there are shells out you can use to monitor/share with them in real time.  or they could use screen. if they want you to help
[14:51] <ZaNeIuM> Dr_Willis: list a first degree
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> hmm?
[14:52] <zykotick9> Dr_Willis: i've experinced it personally on several occasions (older versions of ubuntu obviously) - it's almost felt random... when it happens i mean.
[14:52] <Un_Bagels> XRANDR can't find my display.  I have a VGA monitor attached to an NVidia GeForce max output 1600x900.  It worked yesterday, but an update broke it.  PLEASE HELP :(
[14:53] <gccster> guys i just installed ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop intel i5 with nvidia gforce 540M the problem is that the fan cpu speed is always very high and this is not normal can anybody help?
[14:53] <ZaNeIuM> Dr_Willis how would it be done, would you mind trying it?
[14:53] <Dr_Willis> gccster:  theres some known power saveing issues with some devices/chipsets. Id say check the forums and askubuntu.com for your exact make/model laptop. and they Might have some work arounds and tweaks.
[14:53] <raptor_> @<Dr_Willis> can you suggest anything else bcz ubuntu as username is not working
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> ZaNeIuM:  just a quick google search shows --> http://serverfault.com/questions/12419/monitor-an-incoming-ssh-session-in-real-time
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> raptor_:  you sure it booted the live cd and not your normal isntall?
[14:54] <gccster> Dr_Willis, this is not a graphics card h/w acceleration problem?
[14:54] <satop1> are the apt-get update servers down ?
[14:54] <zykotick9> gccster: (not specific to your issue) if you have lm-sensors installed, from a terminal does "sensors" return a value for CPU FAN Speed in RPM?
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> gccster:  the last few releases of ubuntu (and the kernels) have had some known power issues with laptops.
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> satop1:  theya re real slow here.. not sure what the deal is.
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> gccster: does the i5 have the inbuilt intel GPU thing?
[14:55] <Angtagapagligt> Hey there... just installed Ask Ubuntu Lens. Got Ubuntu 11.10. But it doesn't seem to work... If I type ask ubuntu in my dash search bar there is just nothing :)
[14:55] <gccster> ActionParsnip, all i know is that it has nvidia gforce gt 540M
[14:56] <raptor_> yes with LinuxLive USB Creator 2.8.12 gave me these options 1. Run in persistent mode 2 Live mode 3 Install to disk 4. check ram or something like that etc
[14:56] <Dr_Willis> Angtagapagligt:  i click the 'ask ubuntu' button at the bottom of the   dash thing here.
[14:56] <raptor_> I selected the peresisent mode
[14:56] <Angtagapagligt> Dr_Willis: There is none :/
[14:56] <Dr_Willis> Angtagapagligt:  no idea then. Im on 12.04  here. the lens works very well
[14:57] <Dr_Willis> Angtagapagligt:  you did log out/back in after installing the lense?
[14:57] <Angtagapagligt> Dr_Willis: Nope
[14:57] <Taddle> Anybody know the name of the module for php that allows you to send emails through scripts?
[14:57] <gccster> zykotick9, i installed lm-sensors what do u want me to do
[14:57] <Angtagapagligt> Dr_Willis: Can't try this yet... :)
[14:57] <raptor_> should I try with live mode
[14:57] <Angtagapagligt> Dr_Willis: Have to copy files^^
[14:57] <zykotick9> raptor_: i've never liked persistent usb installs, i've found doing a proper install to the usb (including grub to usb) a lot more useful - then persistant installs.
[14:57] <zykotick9> gccster: in a terminal type "sensors"
[14:57] <Dr_Willis> Angtagapagligt:  i recall a lot of the unity extra stuff requires you to log out/back in for them to start working
[14:58] <raptor_> how do you do a grub to USB ?
[14:58] <gccster> zykotick9, acpitz-virtual-0
[14:58] <gccster> Adapter: Virtual device
[14:58] <gccster> temp1:        +63.0°C  (crit = +99.0°C
[14:58] <gccster> i think this is high already
[14:58] <zykotick9> !paste | gccster
[14:58] <Angtagapagligt> Dr_Willis: Ah okay... I'll try this in half an hour ... Many thanks!
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> gccster: run:  sudo lshw -C display     does it say intel as well as nvidia?
[15:00] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip: fyi, i think hybrid can also be revealed using "lspci -v | grep -i vga" (but test first ;)
[15:00] <gccster> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/hu24JNeG
[15:00] <Un_Bagels> gccster ActionParsnip et al, I think you guys are talking about the same problem I have?
[15:00] <raptor_> let me try with live mode
[15:00] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip: gccster intel & nvidia ;)
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> joy
[15:01] <satop1> the servers are slow that might be the reason it fails
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> that hybrid junk is always a pain in Linux
[15:01] <zykotick9> gccster: could you pastebin "lscpi -v | grep -i vga" for me?
[15:01] <Dead_AssClown> i downloaded ubuntu and accidently f***ed it up...how do you re install
[15:01] <nyuszika7h> Any further ideas?
[15:01] <Dead_AssClown> burn it to a cd?
[15:01] <nyuszika7h> I don't see "beep" in alsamixer, only mic and internal mic is muted
[15:02] <Solitary7> Hey whats up everybody. Is there a chance someone can help me with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1982911   ?
[15:02] <nyuszika7h> Beep apparently doesn't work in tty1 either
[15:02] <gccster> in wich package i get lspci?
[15:02] <nyuszika7h> (tried `beep' and `echo -en '\007'`)
[15:02] <zykotick9> gccster: no package required?
[15:03] <nyuszika7h> gccster: Tip: sudo apt-get install apt-file && sudo apt-file update && sudo apt-file search 'file'
[15:03] <Dr_Willis> nyuszika7h:  theres a way to get GRUB to play a tune also.. :) but even that dosent work on this pc..
[15:03] <zykotick9> gccster: if it's too much trouble - don't worry about it!  thanks anyway.
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> # Uncomment to get a beep at grub start
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> GRUB_INIT_TUNE="1000 334 1 334 1 0 1 334 1 0 1 261 1 334 1 0 1 392 2 0 4 196 2"
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> Thats the Mario tune. :) but it does not work on my pc either.. I think my pc has no speaker.
[15:04]  * zykotick9 has never gotten grub been to work :(  and i have several grub songs around somewhere
[15:05] <nyuszika7h> For me, beep works in Windows and in Arch (some older version)
[15:05] <zykotick9> s/been/beep/
[15:05] <OerHeks> Dr_Willis, neither have that tune working, with pc speaker or soundcard
[15:05] <fabi_an> at least one of the official hashes here seems wrong: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes
[15:05] <nyuszika7h> zykotick9: I said beep, not been

[15:06] <sharko> hello is there a way that i can get php to work
[15:06] <NcA> ./*.php ?
[15:06] <SolarisBoy> cd
[15:07] <vg-loc> guys can u help in getting themes and help install them ??
[15:07] <zykotick9> gccster: thanks!  ActionParsnip so lspci with the -v will show both cards - no sudo or lshw required.
[15:07] <sharko> hello is there a way that i can get php to work as i downloaded the php softwere and now i cant open it
[15:07] <SolarisBoy> sorry
[15:07] <Solitary7> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1982911
[15:07] <vg-loc> hello can any one help me ??
[15:07] <gccster> zykotick9, is there any chance to fix this?
[15:07] <vg-loc> :\
[15:08] <SolarisBoy> sharko: what do you mean get it to work? how are you trying to make it work? or do you expect it to work?
[15:08] <Dr_Willis> vg-loc:  i just use themes from the repos. or the webupd8 sites ppa's
[15:08] <NcA> sharko: you need to be a bit more specific
[15:08] <vg-loc> can u give me the link
[15:08] <NcA> sharko: did you install it via aptitude?
[15:08] <sharko> SolarisBoy i used sudo get-app instail
[15:08] <SolarisBoy> sharko: ok - and what exactly are you looking to happen now?
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> vg-loc:   the sites name is 'webupd8'
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> vg-loc:  they got a ppa. with some nice themes in it
[15:09] <SolarisBoy> sharko: php is a language generally used to produce dynamic web content
[15:09] <zykotick9> gccster: get it working you mean?  ya.  (i've never had this h/w so don't really know the specifics) but you need to install bumblebee and or research more on nvidia-optimus support in linux
[15:09] <vg-loc> and how to install them ??
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> vg-loc:  since its a PPA.. you use the normal package manager tools....
[15:09] <SolarisBoy> sharko: are you running php in some webserver which is configured to execute PHP files and have php files in your web root and are seeing an issue?
[15:09] <gccster> zykotick9, im sure its hardware acceleration problem
[15:10] <SolarisBoy> sharko: else PHP generally doesn't do anything by itself..
[15:10] <vg-loc> do i need a ware to install it or something ?
[15:10] <zykotick9> gccster: i think, once you have bumblebee properly working the nvidia driver starts to work properly (ie acceleration)
[15:10] <sharko> well SolarisBoy it to open in terminator and i dont have one as im working on someing for a mates server he just wnats me to code
[15:10] <gccster> zykotick9, where can i find bubmblebe?
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> vg-loc:  You may want to spend some time learning some more ubuntu basics. you add the ppa, the items appear in the normal software center/synaptic/apt-get tools.. same as all the other apps do.
[15:11] <Xeli> aaaargh pulseaudio ;((
[15:11] <SolarisBoy> sharko: you dont open the php binary, it interprets php code
[15:11] <zykotick9> gccster: no idea ;)
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> vg-loc:  the webupd8 pages detail exactly how to install the themes using apt-get
[15:11] <gccster> zykotick9, do u know what is it?
[15:11] <sharko> SolarisBoy ok then how to i get it to run then
[15:11] <SolarisBoy> sharko: in a browser
[15:11] <SolarisBoy> sharko: in a webserver rather - and view it in a browser
[15:12] <vg-loc> Dr_willis : thnq for the help
[15:12] <vg-loc> i'm done with the manual !!!
[15:12] <vg-loc> what else should i learn ?
[15:12] <zykotick9> gccster: sorry i've shared all i know about hybrid graphics with you already - so good luck.  someone else who knows more would be able to help you better.
[15:12] <SolarisBoy> sharko: generally (maybe not so much now) people use apache - as such they enable mod_php
[15:12] <raptor22> Hi
[15:12] <sharko> SolarisBoy so theres no way that i can code with out a server
[15:12] <gccster> zykotick9, ok thanx for anyone needs it i found IT https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee
[15:12] <SolarisBoy> sharko: you can code all you like
[15:13] <raptor22> I did try in live mode but still it ask for a username and passowrd
[15:13] <Dougie187> I tried to installed the binary nvidia drivers to check a performance issue. I cleaned it up and removed them and reinstalled nvidia-current, but now when I log in with unity 32 I don't get an interface. I was curious if anyone had an idea to get around this?
[15:13] <SolarisBoy> sharko: open an editor and start typing...
[15:13] <exaem> sharko: You can install php on your home server if you have linux installed
[15:13] <gccster> nvidia-optimus support
[15:13] <SolarisBoy> he has it installed
[15:13] <raptor22> I took a few screenshots though
[15:13] <exaem> Then why is he complaining?
[15:13] <SolarisBoy> i think hes looking for it to do something on its own..
[15:13] <NcA> he doesn't understand what php is.?
[15:13] <sharko> exaem nvm
[15:13] <SolarisBoy> sharko: if you want to run a php script - without a browser - look at php --help
[15:13] <sharko> NcA i know what it is
[15:14] <SolarisBoy> you can use -f and point to a file
[15:14] <SolarisBoy> but thats about it..
[15:14] <sharko> i got it thanks
[15:14] <sharko> :D
[15:14] <SolarisBoy> generally people use it for dynamic web content as such they test it in a browser - and code it in w/e they are comfortable in - technically you DONT need it installed to code it
[15:16] <NcA> <?php\ echo "hello world"\ ?>
[15:16] <NcA> then execute
[15:16] <SolarisBoy> basically.
[15:16] <trappist> I've moved mysql's data files to a new filesystem, updated my.cnf and apparmor... when I restart the server everything becomes root-owned and all my queries say the table doesn't exist.. have I missed something?
[15:16] <ikonia> trappist: change the permisisons on the file system
[15:17] <trappist> ikonia: I just realized chown does nothing... the fs must be something other than I thought
[15:17] <ldz420> what do the permissions look like on the files ?
[15:17] <ikonia> trappist: what file system did you (think?) you put on it
[15:18] <trappist> I put it on a new ssd drive, and the fs is fuse
[15:18] <trappist> guess I'll deal with that
[15:18] <ikonia> trappist: fuse isn't a file system
[15:18] <ikonia> trappist: it's most likley ntfs
[15:18] <ldz420> I am trying to activate my nvidia drivers and I am getting an error message about XorgDriverHandler.enable() in the jockey.log file
[15:18] <trappist> ah right
[15:18] <ikonia> trappist: and you're mounting it through fuse
[15:19] <trappist> yeah probably
[15:19] <ikonia> trappist: that would explain the permissions problems you are seein
[15:19] <ikonia> seeing
[15:19] <trappist> yeah
[15:20] <matelot> Q: Does Compiz work under Gnome shell on 12.04 ?
[15:20] <zykotick9> matelot: no
[15:21] <matelot> zykotick9: what about G2 ?
[15:21] <SolarisBoy> trappist: did you get help?
[15:21] <zykotick9> matelot: gnome2?  of course.?
[15:22] <matelot> zykotick9: yes Gnome 2 thx
[15:22] <ikonia> matelot: keep in mind, gnome 2 is dead
[15:22] <zykotick9> matelot: RIP Gnome2 - move on ;)
[15:22] <matelot> what about Cinammon ? does compiz work there ?
[15:22] <ikonia> matelot: you'll need to talk to the mint guys on that
[15:23] <zykotick9> matelot: cinammon is ot here (i don't know btw)
[15:23] <ikonia> matelot: they will have a better idea on compatability/stability
[15:23] <matelot> so my only option  - if I must have compiz - is Unity and G2 ?
[15:24] <zykotick9> matelot: fyi i think gnome-panel (under gnome3) can do compiz?
[15:24] <ikonia> matelot: well not really gnome 2, as that's not in ubuntu any more
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> matelot:  thers emerald. but its a dead project.
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> matelot:  the webupd8 site had a guide on seting up custome compiz sessions also.
[15:24] <matelot> I can not stanf UNITY ....
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> matelot:  i find unity fine.. so whatever.. ;)
[15:24] <zykotick9> !notunity | matelot
[15:24] <AFD> hi guys
[15:25] <satop1> $ gnome-media-player ... segmentation fault ?
[15:25] <gccster> zykotick9, well i installed bumblebee is there any test where i can see if h/w acceleration is turned on?
[15:25] <zykotick9> satop1: use a better media player
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> The classic-gnome-fallback thing is also a  solution that could go away in the next release.. or may hang on for a few more.
[15:25] <AFD> I need to separate my X to have xbmc give me fullscreen correctly on my 2nd monitor from my laptop
[15:25] <AFD> can anyone help a n00b config it?
[15:25] <satop1> zykotick or fix it
[15:25] <zykotick9> gccster: i have no idea about your hardware - you now know more then me ;)  good luck man.
[15:26] <Dr_Willis> AFD:  for my nvidia card/system i can just enable twinview and it fullscreens fine on the 2nd monitor. no need for a seperate X session.
[15:26] <Dr_Willis> AFD:  so whats your chipset?
[15:26] <hapster> when wayland goes live in ubuntu, will wine gaming still be possible?
[15:26] <abdo906> can any1 help me
[15:26] <Dr_Willis> hapster:  when wayland goes live.. thers going to be so many issues.. it will be scary
[15:26] <gccster> zykotick9, sorry if i am a pain in the ass i didnt asked you about the hardware just any tests to check out the acceleration....
[15:26] <AFD> Dr_Willis: checking chipset brb
[15:26] <zykotick9> Dr_Willis: +1 on you wayland comment
[15:26] <alfatau> hello! i just installed the 12.04 ubuntu release. I've a problem with the login screen: my name is made of 3 words, but the user selection box cannot contain my entire name. Is there a way to increase that box width? thank you for your attention
[15:27] <zhang> ?
[15:27] <michael_> do you really need to use your full name?
[15:27] <abdo906> can i find any commands that can read file like PDF
[15:27] <hapster> so will ubuntu wait for at least a stable wayland release (stable in a sense that wine and most common apps will run flawlessly) or will they just go ahead and let developers adjust? haha
[15:28] <michael_> there is a doc viewer in ubuntu that reads pdfs
[15:28] <Guest48968> zm
[15:28] <zykotick9> gccster: ya, i'm not to sure what test apply for hybrid stuff sorry.  does nvidia-settings work correctly (i have no idea if it should or shouldn't)?
[15:28] <hapster> because the way I understand it is ubuntu won't have Xorg out of the box when they shift to wayland.
[15:28] <evilgeenius> Does the Ubuntu install/live CD have gparted on it?
[15:28] <abdo906> yeah i know but i need make search option for pdfs files
[15:29] <abdo906> for instance  i want to make database then search in text on these files
[15:30] <trappist> ok I corrected the original problem... moved my mysql data dirs to an ext4 fs on a new ssd, updated my.cnf and apparmor... the server starts but queries say my tables don't exist
[15:30] <vatueil> hey, what's ubuntu's stance on updating to newer firefox versions in 12.04 LTS?
[15:30] <zykotick9> hapster: if history tells us anything, ubuntu does not wait for things to be stable - "progress" is driving force (for better or worse)
[15:30] <trappist> it's all chown -R'd to mysql:mysql
[15:31] <rottik9> I am looking for some training in ubuntu, any suggestions?
[15:31] <hapster> oh I see.:( I just hope proprietary drivers can still function (on top of wayland or whatever. no to sure on the technical stuff of graphics drivers in relation to wayland/XOrg) when wayland kicks in. I still want to play blizzard games on wine.XD
[15:31] <AFD> DR_Willis: I ran hwinfo and found the chipset (I think)
[15:31] <alfatau> michael_: it's simply an appearance issue
[15:32] <abdo906> please can any1 help me how can i use man man for my thoughts
[15:32] <AFD> DR_Willis: Intel 965GM
[15:32] <pgib> Anyone have an idea on what is going on here? http://snag.gy/K2NjE.jpg
[15:33] <AFD> Dr_Willis: my chipset is Intel 965GM
[15:33] <OerHeks> pgib nothing going on, you just have a little space free,
[15:34] <pgib> Did an lvresize then an fs2resize, the capacity has increased from ~85GB to 115GB.  But it doesn't seem to have it "free"
[15:34] <trappist> show tables shows my tables, but 'select * from table_name' reports the table doesn't exist
[15:35] <OerHeks> pgib resized, and mounted again shows not the available space you expected?
[15:35] <pgib> Shows avail as 1.1GB, and used as only 79GB -- this should be closer to 72%
[15:35] <Abhijit> trappist, ask in the appropriate database channel
[15:35] <abdo906> I'm new ubutnu user can any1 help me
[15:36] <abdo906> or show me how can i deal with ubuntu
[15:36] <raptor> this is the screen where I'm struck http://imagebin.org/213020
[15:36] <trappist> ah, dmesg shows me this: mysql post-start process (11960) terminated with status 1
[15:37] <pgib> OerHeks, Right, I resized it to 115GB. The gnome applet seems to recognize this on the "Volume" line.  Yet, it says Total capacity: 84.6 GB.  Hmm, perhaps the fs2resize failed somehow?
[15:38] <trappist> where can I find the post-start script for mysql?
[15:39] <OerHeks> pgib, i guess so, what fs2resize command did you use?
[15:40] <NcA> trappist: what are you needing a script for exactly?
[15:40] <trappist> NcA: the post-start script is failing for mysql, want to see what could be going wrong
[15:41] <trappist> so I'm looking for the existing script, not trying to write a new one

[15:51] <melkor> Adil: you problem sounds pretty specific, you might have to find a forum, post a message and wait.
[15:51] <mattwj2002> OerHeks: are you still here?
[15:51] <alankila> Adil: nobody if nobody has any idea about that hardware. We just can't afford to have people constantly spamming the same message every few minutes.
[15:52] <VirtualBlackness> !patience | Adil
[15:52] <ActionParsnip> Adil: could help if you say how it connects to the system...
[15:52] <abdo906> what z man man ?
[15:52] <lund> Adil, what type of modem is it, do you need help to configure it at a driver level, or dont know how to configure for your ISP etc
[15:52] <VirtualBlackness> !details | Adil
[15:52] <mattwj2002> OerHeks: I found that the NEC Corporation uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller is prefect
[15:53] <Adil> i'm not a spammer, i want just help, i don't have connection on my Ubunto! i write many msg on forums but no one answer!!! a friend requiest me your site and i'm on it now
[15:53] <mattwj2002> is that a chipset?
[15:53] <OerHeks> mattwj2002, oke, buy one
[15:53] <rly> I need to download 4GB to upgrade Ubuntu; isn't that a bit excessive for an upgrade?
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> Adil: still not answered my question....
[15:54] <OerHeks> rly depends on all the installed packages. no, it is not excessive.
[15:54] <VirtualBlackness> "I'm not abusive, I am just punching you in the face because I need something"   please give details, and be patient.
[15:54] <ikonia> rly: no, or you wouldn't need to
[15:54] <Adil> my modem is OT-X080C Ubuntu doesn't detect it, i set configuration to #777 and i gave Name of user and password, but no connexion!!
[15:54] <ZaNeIuM> im very new to ubuntu, how do i get this to install ( i've dl it to a folder) "MarballOdyssey-Shareware-1.3.1-Linux-x86-Install"
[15:55] <rly> Does Ubuntu use binary diffs for real upgrades?
[15:55] <mattwj2002> OerHek I figured it out
[15:55] <ikonia> rly: no, not for a distro upgrade
[15:55] <mattwj2002> thanks ... I owe you a beer!
[15:55] <mattwj2002> :)
[15:55] <melkor> Adil: when the modem is plugged in does the light flash properly?
[15:55] <prayingprince> I don't want to pull an Adil, but has anyone seen my question?
[15:55] <melkor> prayingprince: that is probably worse.
[15:56] <rly> Does the upgrade work? Or have there been lots of problems?
[15:56] <prayingprince> Ok, sorry
[15:56] <ikonia> rly: it works
[15:56] <lund> prayingprince, missed it
[15:56] <VirtualBlackness> No prayingprince, please repeat.
[15:56] <benjaimen_> im a 36 year old 80s computer nerd with questionable social skills, apple IIe was the first real friend, but my commodore schoolmates had what i wanted, now im using joli os cuz i tried to compress my drive in windows 7... starting to get used to it, i might stick with it, but even though linux is supposed to be so stab;le, i have just as many occasional 'having to just restart' issues
[15:56] <prayingprince> hello.  I just installed 12.04 on its own partition.  I used to run 11.10 in VM.  I can not get wireless towork.  when i type "lspci | grep -i wireless" nothing comes up
[15:56] <Adil> Melkor, when the modem is plugged  the light flash properly
[15:56] <Shanth> how long will it take for apt-get update
[15:56] <VirtualBlackness> prayingprince: try just looking through all of lspci.
[15:56] <ikonia> prayingprince: the virtual hardware does not have a virtual wireless device
[15:56] <VirtualBlackness> prayingprince: they do not always identify with the word wireless.
[15:57] <ikonia> prayingprince: only the physical hardware will have wireless devices
[15:57] <melkor> Adil: can you go to the termin/cmd prompt and type "lsusb | grep 12d1" ?
[15:57] <rly> ikonia: did Canonical do anything to improve QA in the past year?
[15:57] <VirtualBlackness> prayingprince: listen to ikonia... I just was commenting on the specific grep
[15:57] <ikonia> benjaimen_: do you have an ubuntu question ?
[15:57] <ikonia> rly: no more/less than before
[15:58] <melkor> Shanth: unless you are on dial-up it should take less than 10 minutes.
[15:58] <prayingprince> Does this look right the right thing:  0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
[15:58] <rly> ikonia: what kind of infrastructure do they have for QA?
[15:58] <dlentz> prayingprince, yes
[15:58] <ikonia> rly: no idea
[15:58] <OerHeks> rly check askubuntu.com, improved forum
[15:58] <Shanth> i'm using DSL and for first time runing apt-get update
[15:58] <Adil> Melkor: no i don't try it yet!  just give me the possible solutions, cause i've to restart my computer to enter on Ubunto! Now i'm on windows
[15:59] <Guest4180> hi everyone
[15:59] <melkor> Shanth: apt-get update doesn't take long it just d/loads package information.
[15:59] <Shanth> its seems to be going more than an hour
[15:59] <VirtualBlackness> !b43 | yes prayingprince... that is it.
[15:59] <prayingprince> ok, thanks!
[15:59] <melkor> adil http://theopenhelp.com/2010/10/how-to-setup-tata-photon-plus-on-ubuntu.html
[15:59] <alankila> I have b43 on laptop. The closed driver worked with that one, the open driver never did
[15:59] <TheAlliedFleet> Does anyone else have problems with furius ISO mount?
[15:59] <Guest4180> hey this is great am on mirc from my mac yuppyyyyyy
[16:00] <ikonia> TheAlliedFleet: mounting an ISO has no issues
[16:00] <ikonia> TheAlliedFleet: if you have a specific issue, please say
[16:00] <alankila> open driver crashed the box in about 5 minutes forcing a reboot
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> Adil: run:  lsusb    copy the text and make a pastebin so we can read it, also add the output of:  lsb_release -a
[16:00] <Adil> Melkor : thank you!
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> Guest4180: ok....
[16:00] <satop1> adil did you visit the website of your hardware for support
[16:00] <TheAlliedFleet> When I mount an iso I can't see anything within the mountpoint ikonia
[16:00] <Adil> ActionParsnip: i will note your msg thank you too
[16:01] <AFD> can anyone tell me how to separate my x sessions when dual screening from a laptop?
[16:01] <Cnythnk> hm I never worked with python (it's not for me, just hosting it) but is there anyway you could find out the "service name" for a running python script e.g "example.py"?
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> AFD: using what GPU?
[16:01] <ikonia> AFD: define two xsessions in the xorg.conf
[16:01] <Emmanuel_Chanel> Hello!
[16:01] <bigpapa> can anyone help me with getting both of my amd hd 6850s working so i can have dual desktops? it sees the main adapter fine but maybe cause the other is the same it can't?
[16:01] <ikonia> TheAlliedFleet: how are you mounting it ?
[16:01] <AFD> ActionParsnip: Intel 965GM
[16:02] <melkor> Shanth: you can cancel an update and try again.
[16:02] <smithw> Hi, I'm having wi-fi woes. I have 8GB RAM, so I installed 12.04 64-bit. My wireless is not automatically picked by Ubuntu, so on to ndiswrapper. The 64-bit version of my card's window driver makes calls to functions package-ndiswrapper don't have (IoWMI family). So I compiled ndiswrapper from SVN, which has those functions implemented, but now it fails with "ioremap failed", and I don't know where to go now.
[16:02] <melkor> Shanth: you can see how much it is d/loading, there is not much.
[16:02] <stars69> hi, is there away i can set desktop sharing application on auto start when system started?
[16:02] <TheAlliedFleet> I choose the disk image within furius and click the mount button.  Also, I don't think there is a native driver for my wireless card (RTL8723AE).
[16:04] <Shanth> do internet connection necessary while installing ubuntu 12.04
[16:04] <melkor> smithw: I don't think you need ndiswrapper.
[16:04] <melkor> Shanth: no
[16:05] <ActionParsnip> Shanth: they aren't necessary, no
[16:05] <TheAlliedFleet> Nevermind ikonia, I tried gmount isntead, it worked
[16:05] <VirtualBlackness> AFD: do you have two specific GPUs?
[16:05] <smithw> melkor, if there is a better solution, I'm all ears. I'd rather have a native driver anyway. However, evidently b43 isn't that driver...
[16:05] <Shanth> but , i think due to that reason apt-get update is taking much time for running first time
[16:06] <stars69> ActionParsnip, what is the cmd to add startup item bud?
[16:06] <AFD> VirtualBlackness: just 1 I think
[16:06] <AFD> Intel 965GM
[16:06] <L3top> AFD lspci | grep VGA | wc -l
[16:06] <L3top> what is the number
[16:06] <AFD> 1
[16:06] <melkor> smithw: I think 12.04 comes with a sufficient driver
[16:06] <ikonia> AFD: you just need to setup two seperate X servers in the xorg.conf
[16:07] <AFD> ikonia: ok I'll try it
[16:07] <aguitel> any gui to manage boot order ?
[16:07] <smithw> melkor, nope. 12.04 uses b43 by default, and it does not claim my wireless card, as reported by lshw -C network...
[16:07] <ActionParsnip> stars69: use the startup items command in dash
[16:08] <zykotick9> L3top: fyi you need "lscpi -v" to see multiple cards if it's hybrid
[16:08] <L3top> Unfortunately AFD I only know how to do that identifying and assigning the PCI busses. Nvidia has a twinview setting.
[16:08] <smithw> I haven't seem the dmesg with which b43 fail, though.
[16:08] <L3top> That is not my experience zykotick9
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: do you want windows to be default in grub by any chance?
[16:08] <WalterN> aguitel: there is, I dont remember what its called though... lemme see if I can find it
[16:08] <L3top> Sorry zykotick9 I thought you were referring to optimus etc... you are likely correct
[16:08] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, no i have other linux os
[16:08] <zykotick9> L3top: if it's 2 or more inpendent cards the -v isn't required, only for optimus
[16:09] <AFD> L3top: Ill look in to it. thanks for the help
[16:09] <L3top> Optimus displays two zykotick9.
[16:09] <melkor> smithw: did you check this thread? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1604101
[16:10] <L3top> intel and nvidia... however there are all sorts of combinations now, intel/ati ati/ati intel/intel... I do not know how they would display, nor a single card with multiple outputs as they are on the same bus it seems.
[16:10] <zykotick9> L3top: with lscpi?  if you have the hardware you'd be the one to know!  but when asked to post lspci pastes, i often see only the intel mentioned?!
[16:10] <melkor> smithw: it looks like you can d/load and build the drivers.
[16:11] <L3top> zykotick9: I have to write detection routines, so I see them just about every day when someone is complaining my code isn't working... but I have never had an optimus that did not display both.
[16:11] <smithw> melkor, I might be missing something, but that thread is about RTL8188CE, and my wireless card is a RTL8723AE. are they compatible/should I try it anyway?
[16:11] <zykotick9> L3top: interesting, thanks.
[16:11] <bigpapa> is there away to see if ubuntu recognizes both display adapters?
[16:11] <spiritech> hello
[16:11] <stars69> ActionParsnip, thanks
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> bigpapa: sudo lshw -C display
[16:12] <spiritech> does anyone know how to turn off remember window state?
[16:12] <smithw> melkor, also the download page linked doesn't have a driver for 8723
[16:12] <zykotick9> L3top: prior to bumblebee (or other), does the video get detected differently?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> stars69: what do you use VNC to connect to achieve, often VNC isn't needed and there are more graceful solutions
[16:12] <Kyle__> L3top: multiple cards from multiple vendors with multiple heads work in linux.  I've tried it.
[16:12] <Kyle__> And can I say multiple one more time.
[16:13] <spiritech> i run the --geometry option when openning a app from the terminal and it ignores the argument.
[16:13] <Kyle__> L3top: Mind you, it wasn't the prettiest setup, it was awhile ago, and I had to make the xorg.conf by hand :)
[16:13] <ikonia> spiritech: not all apps will use it
[16:13] <spiritech> nautilus?
[16:13] <AFD> sort of cheated and disabled the laptop monitor in the gnome-display-properties
[16:14] <spiritech> it says it does in the nautilus -h
[16:14] <satop1> mouse curosr themes ... set xfce settings , update-alternatives , gtkrc-2.0 in homedir , .Xdefault in homedir and still my mouse cursor is changing to something else when trying to resize a window ?
[16:14] <bigpapa> ActionParsnip: Ty it sees both display adapters using that command. now how do i get the other monitor to display please
[16:14] <zykotick9> satop1: are you using compiz?
[16:14] <satop1> no
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> bigpapa: the only way I can think with Intel is to make an xorg.conf. I've not used dual dispaly outside Nvidia so am not much help.
[16:14] <melkor> smithw: I think if you dload that one, and build the driver and install it you will not have an additional problem. If the driver doesn't work/isn't compatible it won't be used.
[16:15] <satop1> is there another place to set mouse cursor theme ?
[16:15] <smithw> melkor, thanks for your help, I'll try it then :)
[16:15] <Kyle__> bigpapa: if the unity/gnome panels aren't seeing it, you need to start making a custom xorg.conf, usually starting with X -configure (as root, from the command line).
[16:15] <melkor> smithw: what kernel are you using.
[16:15] <spiritech> Ikonia: i am trying to use it whit nautilus and search for files.
[16:15] <bigpapa> ActionParsnip thank you for your help, i should have bought nvidia lol
[16:16] <ikonia> spiritech: I don't know if nautilus will abide by it
[16:16] <bigpapa> Kyle do you happen to know a good how to on that? i'm a noobie linux user
[16:17] <Kyle__> bigpapa: I think if you google for multi head ubuntu X -configure it should bring you to something.
[16:17] <spiritech> all in all. i am trying to write a small script that will open two file browsers at the bottom half of the screen, a terminal and a search for files at the top half.
[16:17] <ment0s> Hello
[16:17] <bigpapa> ok ty good to have the terminalogy
[16:18] <melkor> smithw: also there are a bunch of drivers and such if you look through their page, there is even some firmware.
[16:18] <stars69> i want good remote desktop software can someone help plz?
[16:18] <L3top> zykotick9: We do not use bumblebee, I dedicate the discrete gpu because we are graphics intensive and need accelleration
[16:18] <Kyle__> stars69: To connect to remote desktops or to remote into your own desktop?
[16:18] <L3top> Kyle__: I know they work, I just haven't figured out how to auto-generate an xorg.conf using them
[16:18] <stars69> Kyle__, To connect to remote desktops
[16:19] <spiritech> stars69 i always found remmina quiet good
[16:19] <Kyle__> stars69: Actually, ubuntu comes with both, so I don't know why I asked.... I think if you click on the unity icon and type remote desktop viewer it should be right there.
[16:19] <Kyle__> stars69: Then wen it comes up, there's a drop-down to let you select vnc ssh or rdp.  If rdp doesn't show up you need to download err... holdon..lemmie think of the name.   The HDD contains one big partiton NTFS which works no bother windows.. any ideas whats wrong ?
[16:20] <melkor> smithw: I don't know if the 8723 is the device you are looking for, there might be a different number you need.
[16:21] <Stumpy> I don't have access to a hard-line internet connection, I only have wireless available to me. I want to install Ubuntu 12.04, but need the restricted hardware tool to get wireless set up. How do I get around this?
[16:22] <Kyle__> stars69: For several versions the vnc viewer in there was laggy (that was a gnome problem, not ubuntu's), but always worked well enough for me.  If you want something other than that, tigervncvewer is fantastic for vnc, google it, and you can download rdesktop to give it a shot.
[16:22] <smithw> melkor, 8723 is the device according to lspci -nn (03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device [10ec:8723]), but I know sometimes drivers work with multiple devices
[16:22] <L3top> If ubuntu sees three partitions, it has 3 partitions ment0s... can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l with it attached please?
[16:22] <zion> Good afternoon ,my question is what is main difference between Lubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 12.04 with LXDE regarding performance?
[16:22] <smithw> melkor, also, when I checked Device Manager on the windows that came preinstalled with this machine, that's the model it listed
[16:22] <melkor> smithw: do you know the features of it, ie a/b/g/n single chip ... also is it a new card?
[16:23] <Wiz_KeeD> hey guys
[16:23] <Yoshimi-pink> how can i log into my wifi with command line?
[16:23] <smithw> melkor, I don't know that. What I do know is that it's apparently an hybrid wlan/bluetooth card
[16:23] <Wiz_KeeD> can anyone tell me why in ubuntu 10.04 when i type /sbin/iwconfig i don't see wlan0
[16:23] <Wiz_KeeD> and i only get eth1
[16:23] <Wiz_KeeD> even though i'm connected to a wireless network?
[16:23] <morsnowski> Yoshimi-pink, http://linux.icydog.net/wpa.php
[16:24] <Wiz_KeeD> anyone?
[16:24] <bigpapa> Hi Kyle i googled multi head displays but all i can find is for multi machines... i just have mutli display adapters?
[16:24] <ikonia> Wiz_KeeD: the device name doesn't mean much
[16:24] <OerHeks> Wiz_KeeD, type ifconfig
[16:24] <ikonia> Wiz_KeeD: your device name for the wirless card would well be eth1
[16:25] <Wiz_KeeD> hmm
[16:25] <Wiz_KeeD> i see
[16:25] <Wiz_KeeD> eht0 eth1 and lo
[16:25] <L3top> !enter Wiz_KeeD
[16:25] <L3top> !enter | Wiz_KeeD
