[00:09] <c2h6o> TJ-, I got a new laptop, and the touchpad is infuriating on Ubuntu. Clicking left button actually double clicks in, scrolling and multitouch doesn't work, and there's no palm rejection. Any tips? D;
[00:10] <ObrienDave> disable it in bios. get a mouse ;P
[00:10] <TJ-> c2h6o: Identify the chipset in use is the obvious thing to do, but it depends on how the touchpad connects to the system as to how accurate that is. It must be listed in the input devices via the command I showed you, else it wouldn't be functional.
[00:11] <TJ-> c2h6o: show us "pastebinit /var/log/dmesg"
[00:12] <c2h6o> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8254670
[00:13] <TJ-> c2h6o: So you have a "PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse" plugged into a PS/2 mouse port?
[00:14] <TJ-> c2h6o: I also see "hid-multitouch 0003:03EB:8A32.0001: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Device [Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer] on usb-0000:00:14.0-7/input0"
[00:14] <c2h6o> no
[00:15] <c2h6o> Isn't that the screen digitizer?
[00:15] <TJ-> c2h6o: See what I meant about some devices emulating others? Something is pretending to be a Logitech Wheel Mouse
[00:15] <c2h6o> yeah... Is that because it doesn't have its own driver?
[00:16]  * ObrienDave has a logitech wheel mouse. imposter! ;P
[00:16] <TJ-> c2h6o: Liens 850 onwards show the PS/2 port detection
[00:17] <TJ-> c2h6o: No, it is because it is pretending to be a Logitech Wheel Mouse when asked to identify itself, but then doesn't correctly 'speak' the protocol one of those devices should talk
[00:18] <TJ-> c2h6o: I recall writing an analysis of this issue for a bug report recently; let me see if I can find it
[00:18] <c2h6o> TJ-, alright, thanks

[00:36] <erikk> Hello
[00:36] <erikk> I've been off and on trying to use debian for a month here, a month there sort of deal
[00:36] <erikk> But I've grown increasingly irritable with "stupid" bugs I've run into and issues that I have to constantly fix
[00:37] <somsip> erikk: debian or ubuntu?
[00:37] <erikk> I was hoping if someone could point me in the right direction? Is Ubuntu for me?
[00:37] <erikk> Using debian
[00:37] <eeee> erikk: great, /join #debian , or gedit "Dear diary, "
[00:37] <erikk> lol
[00:37] <somsip> erikk: k - lag on your last question... But it's something that you need to decide for yourself. Try the LiveCD and see what you think
[00:37] <eeee> :)
[00:38] <erikk> is MATE well supported on Ubuntu?
[00:38] <uRock> not until 14.40
[00:38] <erikk> Just a few more questions if you don't mind
[00:38] <uRock> correction 14.10
[00:38] <uRock> $1 each
[00:38] <erikk> lol
[00:39] <Beldar> Dear diary, thank you linux for having so many choices to choose from.
[00:39] <erikk> I liked Gnome 2 from long ago back when I was using Ubuntu, but that was probably 8 years ago or a little bit shy of that
[00:39] <uRock> as long as they don't require ffmpeg
[00:39] <somsip> erikk: there is also a Gnome ubuntu in 14.10 IIRC
[00:39] <erikk> If I'm looking for similar visual effects and long term stability without a ton of bugs, should I go with Gnome classic or MATE or what?
[00:40] <odsent> help
[00:40] <erikk> and low resource use
[00:40] <somsip> erikk: some guidance is here http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/09/04/ubuntu_14_10_betas/
[00:40] <uRock> !help
[00:40] <erikk> or at least on par with gnome 2
[00:40] <odsent> My printer ran out of paper, can someone fax me more paper?
[00:40] <erikk> Thanks, will look into it, somsip
[00:40] <Guest29561> !patience
[00:40] <eeee> lol
[00:41] <CAPTCAVE> yes sur '
[00:41] <CAPTCAVE> i will
[00:41] <CAPTCAVE> :)
[00:41] <odsent> Can someone fax me more printer paper plz?
[00:41] <CAPTCAVE> thanks alots sir
[00:41] <CAPTCAVE> :)
[00:41] <odsent> because when you fax someone, it prints out what you send them so you can get more paperl
[00:42] <odsent> like sending them the sheet
[00:42] <somsip> odsent: it was almost funny in 1980. Please stop now
[00:42] <uRock> lol
[00:42] <erikk> Hmm. So Xubuntu should almost be like my attempted xfce debian but with much less hassle?
[00:42] <odsent> i'd like to download some RAM, too
[00:42] <somsip> erikk: it will certainly be like xfce as it is xfce. Less hassle? YMMV but it seems well supported
[00:43] <uRock> erikk, xubuntu is nice.
[00:43] <uRock> but I am biesed
[00:43] <cynicallemon> erikk: it will be similar but at the expense of RAM
[00:43] <uRock> biased
[00:43] <ken_> I have just completed an install of Ubuntu 14.04 on a toshiba laptop and cannot stop the screen from shutting down after a few minutes of inactivity//
[00:43] <uRock> but everything will just work
[00:44] <uRock> ken_, settings > Brightness & Lock
[00:45] <erikk> Okay, I think I've decided that I'd like to try Ubuntu with MATE. Is there anywhere that I can see a distribution of de popularity to try to decide if MATE will be around for the long term or if I'm just joining a short lived I-hate-unity protest?
[00:45] <somsip> erikk: beta of 14.10 is probably your best bet.
[00:45] <erikk> somsip: Thanks for the advice.
[00:47] <uRock> I'm gonna have to break down and test Mate. I know cinnamon is awesome
[00:47] <erikk> Do you guys think mate will be around for the long term?
[00:48] <ttj> question for you guys with audio
[00:48] <somsip> erikk: subjective and difficult to answer
[00:48] <uRock> ttj, we givest thou permission to asketh
[00:48] <ttj> sound for some reason cut out again with ubuntu 14.04, not sure what linux mint does different but the audio worked in mint 17 fine
[00:49] <ken_> uRock, thanks much looked everywhere but apparently missed it.... i appreiate the help
[00:49] <ttj> in alsamixer it keeps selecting HDA intel HDMI as default instead of the pch
[00:50] <uRock> ken_, glad I could help
[00:51]  * RoBo_V successfully dual booted ubuntu alongside windows 8.1, time to explore Ubuntu. Bye2Windows
[00:51] <ken_> Just out of curiosity, why does Ubuntu still use the screensaver these days?
[00:52] <eeee> ken_: why wouldn't it?
[00:52] <uRock> Mostly to save electricity
[00:53] <uRock> that's my guess
[00:53] <uRock> That is one of the first things I disable after an install
[00:54] <ken_> i guess that if you are using a CRT screen you might need it but with the new screens who in their right mind woudld want to use a dino.....
[00:54] <uRock> ttj, I'd love to help but I don't know much about audio issues
[00:55] <ttj> that is fine, I dont either lol. have to go anyways but thank you
[00:55] <uRock> I miss cathode ray tubes, not
[00:55] <ttj> actually off subject quick, would you go with the htc m8 or wait for the iphone 6?

[01:01] <enchilado> I had no idea people used them still
[01:01] <uRock> ken_, /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:01] <enchilado> I didn't think modern screen technology was adversely affected by displaying the same image for an extended time
[01:01] <enchilado> Is that not the case?

[01:04] <antonio__> Hey folks...
[01:04] <antonio__> Tried to backup my home folder yesterday.  Only backed up about 193 gigs of like 300gigs.  Is it possible that there is a report as to what went wrong?  Or is it possible to setup some kind of debugging I can do?
[01:04] <OerHeks> the screensaver routine is not just a screensaver, also a way to lock your machine after x time.
[01:04] <uRock> I always lock when I walk away for a while
[01:05] <OerHeks> antonio__, if you used duplicity >/var/log/duplicity/etc.log
[01:06] <Hypnoz> antonio__: rsync -av /home/antonio /destination/ 2>&1 > /var/tmp/rsync_output.log
[01:06] <antonio__> oerheks: I thought I used duplicity....
[01:06] <OerHeks> dejadub does not make a log, unless you set DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1
[01:07] <Hypnoz> antonio__: actually I would use "sudo" for the command to make sure you can copy all files and keep permissions
[01:08] <antonio__> crap...I deleted the backups I had...and was going to do it all over tonight...
[01:08] <antonio__> hypnoz: you a hypnotist?
[01:08] <Hypnoz> haha hypnos is the god of sleep
[01:08] <Hypnoz> and i looooove sleep :)
[01:08] <antonio__> yeah I know...
[01:09] <antonio__> I'm a hypnotist..I'm required to know these things ;)
[01:10] <antonio__> so I'm going to try backing up my stuff again...Is it possible I can setup some kind of logging?
[01:10] <Hypnoz> can't go wrong with rsync
[01:10] <Hypnoz> even if it fails at some point, you just run it again and maybe it will keep going
[01:10] <Hypnoz> and try the --progress if you want to see how fast things are copying and how long is left
[01:10] <Akuw> i am trying to connect to vpn from ubuntu but is not posible, from windows i can
[01:10] <antonio__> hypnoz: is it better than the the backup utility with 12.10?
[01:11] <Hypnoz> I've never used the backup utility, I'm a server admin so I do most everything with command line
[01:12] <Hypnoz> I'm guessing that if the backup utility you ran had a problem it would write to a log file somewhere
[01:12] <Hypnoz> maybe /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages
[01:12] <blowhards> Hypnoz: so true
[01:13] <antonio__> Hypnotiz: can I pm you?
[01:14] <Hypnoz> sure
[01:16] <uRock> does anyone here use any softwares that used to require ffmpeg and do those apps work now with libav?
[01:21] <sharpcheddar> a/s/l?
[01:21] <sharpcheddar> lol just kidding
[01:21] <Akuw> i have problems to connect to vpn
[01:21] <Akuw> no error messages
[01:23] <sharpcheddar> is anyone running ubuntu on a haswell processor?
[01:23] <sharpcheddar> or ivy bridge at least?
[01:26] <blowhards> sharpcheddar: why
[01:27] <sharpcheddar> just wondering how well ubuntu works on it?
[01:29] <sharpcheddar> so how about those nudie pics of jennifer lawrence?
[01:32] <chris__> Hello World
[01:33] <chris__> simple question.  Its getting annouying that while trying to develop something that requires a fresh install and you have to debug errors and retest from a fresh system having to re-install everytime ... :P
[01:35] <fooper> !peppermint
[01:36] <fooper> chris__: I believe they are also on spotchat, but I don't know for sure.
[01:36] <Beldar> chris__, I don't see them on freenode, the web might have some info.
[01:36] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: yes, but not without proper setup.  A couple of ways:
[01:36] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: 1. Use a snapshotting filesystem.  Take a snapshot.
[01:37] <chris__> nobody is in those rooms mentioned
[01:37] <OerHeks> Poppabear, use a cloud service, to deploy development.
[01:38] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: 2. Go old school and take an image.  Easy method: 1. install system to your liking; 2. make a large file of zeros ($ dd if=/dev/zero of=./big_empty_file); 3. remove file, and save entire harddrive with dd ( $ sudo dd if=/dev/sda | gzip | some_network_device)
[01:39] <Akuw> anybody knows about vpn with ubuntu?
[01:40] <sharpcheddar> love it when you talk nerdy
[01:40] <uRock> Akuw, give some information and someone may answer you
[01:41] <RoBo_V> sharpcheddar: lol
[01:41] <Bashing-om> Poppabear: I have done this; spare hard drive, same user name and pass word, install onto the spare hard drive the same version as is presently installed and get a good copy of that installed OS onto the what was a spare hard drive.
[01:41] <Akuw> ok, i just configure vpn using this tutor   http://www.maketecheasier.com/connect-to-a-vpn-in-ubuntu/
[01:41] <Beldar> Akuw, no idea here but found this easily, https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/openvpn.html
[01:42] <Akuw> but when select vpn no connection stablished
[01:42] <Akuw> the vpn server is windows
[01:43] <Basketball> Beldar,  how can i get flash in chromium
[01:43] <Basketball> 12.04
[01:43] <Poppabear> i am not looking to "backup" my server, i only want to "undo/restore" to earlier state ....
[01:43] <Beldar> Poppabear, NOt a linux option.
[01:43] <zj> you can use chrom
[01:43] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: Then you want to use a snapshotting filesystem.
[01:44] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: seriously.  Consider btrfs.
[01:44] <Poppabear> hoodoowoo: reading now
[01:45] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: short of that, if your worried about stability, consider aufs /unionfs.
[01:45] <sharpcheddar> serious question guys, can ubuntu gain market share in the enterprise just as much as redhat/fedora/centos?
[01:46] <OerHeks> sharpcheddar, this channel is not for polling, just technical support
[01:46] <zj> Basketball use this command sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[01:46] <sharpcheddar> oh gotcha
[01:46] <OerHeks> Basketball, pepperflash is only available in 14.04 http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[01:46] <Basketball> OerHeks,  how can i get flash in chromium then
[01:47] <Poppabear> ok here is the deal, i am testing install scripts via a fresh 12.04 server ... Fresh meaning NOTHING installed, I want to be able to run my install script which will install like apache2, mysql, php5, ect ... and for some reason my install script failes, and i debug it and fix it, i need to start FRESH again, in which case i don't want to have to wait everytime for a OS to be installed
[01:47] <OerHeks> if the regular flashplugin-installer does not work enough, i don't know any other solution
[01:48] <OerHeks> err html5 for youtube :-D
[01:48] <OerHeks> or netflix
[01:48] <Basketball> OerHeks,  i need it for sheppard software
[01:48] <OerHeks> try chrome ?
[01:49] <jontron____> ls
[01:49] <jontron____> ls
[01:49] <Basketball> OerHeks, why would chrome have something chromium doesnt
[01:49] <jontron____> ls -l
[01:49] <jontron____> cd ..
[01:49] <jontron____> ls
[01:49] <jontron____> ls
[01:49] <unopaste> jontron____ you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[01:49] <kostkon> Basketball, it will have pepper flash build in
[01:49] <kostkon> built*
[01:49] <OerHeks> Basketball, because chrome does have pepperflash buildin
[01:50] <OerHeks> so, other oprion would be upgrade to 14.04 .. up 2 you
[01:50] <Poppabear> i guess my other solution would to have a few VM's ready to go, and as i switch and test on new one, i start the install for another one :P
[01:50] <Poppabear> lmao
[01:50] <OerHeks> Poppabear, that is what a regular developer does, update the image, clone it and run
[01:53] <Guest20568> hi, quick comment about wubi, to whom it may concern... when i download the 14.04.1 amd64 desktop iso and put it in the wubi directory, wubi will nevertheless download some iso and then abort the installation once the download finishes. however, if i put a 14.04 iso in the wubi directory, wubi is happy. so apparently it is not yet updated to enjoy 14.04.1? :)
[01:53] <Beldar> Guest20568, Not supported, nor a good idea.
[01:55] <Guest20568> well the ubuntu wiki says you can put iso in the wubi directory and actually it is a very good idea for those who do not want to re-download 1 gb of data each time when installing multiple computers... those can then download the iso once and copy it together with wubi to each target pc
[01:55] <Poppabear> i'm going to bed!
[01:55] <Poppabear> night
[01:55] <Guest20568> as said, it works well with the 14.04 iso, only the 14.04.1 iso confuses wubi in the current wubi version
[01:56] <Beldar> Guest20568, Even the developer of wubi stated it was for trying out in lieu of a full install, not the use you state.
[01:57] <Guest20568> okay beldar then i have another question... how do i dual-boot ubuntu and win7 on hp laptops which already have 4 primary partitions, without using wubi? the 4 partitions are: some test tool, win7, win7 recovery and some hp bios tools, respectively
[01:57] <Beldar> Guest20568, easy some of that like the firmware can be in a extended.
[01:58] <Beldar> old news
[01:58] <Guest20568> i thought because all 4 of them look bootable, none of them would like to be in extended...
[01:58] <Guest20568> can ubuntu itself boot from extended?
[01:58] <uRock> yes
[01:59] <Guest20568> urock is that yes about my question or about something else?
[01:59] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: in regards to your virtual machine: again *snapshot*.  When whatever you do breaks the system, a rollback amounts to deleting the file.  Done in less than a second.
[01:59] <uRock> yes
[01:59] <Beldar> Guest20568, All of windows can be in a extended if the boot partition is a primary, yes ubuntu boots from a extended.
[01:59] <kostkon> uRock, ;P
[01:59] <uRock> back at ya kostkon
[01:59] <uRock> 8_
[01:59] <uRock> 8)
[02:00] <Poppabear> hoodoowoo: i will maybe get more help from you tomorrow if ur around, i have to sleep now :)
[02:00] <kostkon> uRock, as you wish
[02:00] <Poppabear> hoodoowoo: but thanks for the help thus far
[02:00] <Guest20568> well everything apart from those hp bios tools are ntfs with win boot loaders, no idea which one of them has the boot menu, if any :s
[02:00] <hoodoowoo> Poppabear: cool.
[02:00] <Guest20568> also the bios tools can be invoked from the bios, i think, and bioses are usually not very smart in going to unexpected places (now it is fat32, 4th primary partition)
[02:00] <Beldar> Guest20568, boot partiton is probably sda1 from linux the one 200 or so MB
[02:01] <yosry> hey there :)
[02:01] <yosry> i want to remove unused kerneal from my ubuntu 14.04 and keep the last one only
[02:02] <uRock> Guest20568, does your machine have the power to run a VM?
[02:02] <Guest20568> beldar, sda1 is 200 mb with win7 boot stuff and memtest, sda2 is win7 c: with win7 boot stuff, sda3 is win7 recovery with win7 boot stuff, dozens of gigabytes, sda4 is only 4gb with fat32 and apparently bios tools, bios updater and some linux based boot-into-embedded-browser thingy
[02:02] <Bashing-om> yosry: terminal command in 14.04 -> sudo apt-get autoremove <- rtemoves all old kenels leess booting and 1 under.
[02:03] <Beldar> yosry, This command will do just that. sudo apt-get remove --purge $(dpkg -l 'linux-*' | sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\(.*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/;/[0-9]/!d')
[02:03] <Guest20568> so your idea that sda1 is the boot menu sounds plausible, although it is big for a boot menu :) and you say both the recovery and the biostool partitions can be extended?
[02:04] <Beldar> Guest20568, sda1 is the boot partition. Really before you do anything clone the whole thing.
[02:04] <kostkon> Guest20568, http://askubuntu.com/questions/149821/my-disk-already-has-4-primary-partitions-how-can-i-install-ubuntu
[02:05] <yosry> Bashing-om: thx :) and how i can remove old system updates taht takes space ?
[02:06] <Guest20568> thanks kostkon, same brand, roughly same partition distribution :) that askubuntu page suggests to throw out the hp tools and downloading the usb flash drive version of the tools instead... can do that after getting another free flash drive :)
[02:07] <kostkon> yosry, during an update everything gets replaced. The only exception is the kernel, for sysstem safety reasons. If the new kernel fails, you can boot using an older one.
[02:07] <kostkon> Guest20568, go for it. Get rid of wubi
[02:07] <yosry> kostkon: thx alot is there anyway i can free some extra space on home !?
[02:08] <Guest20568> by the way i find it a bit weird that ubuntu defaults to "replace windows" while making "dual boot" more like a manual, expert option... or is that only when there are 4 primary partitions already, and if there are less, there is an "easy dual boot" button?
[02:09] <kostkon> yosry, The home folder contains your personal files. It's up to you to decide which ones to keep and which ones to delete
[02:09] <Bashing-om> yosry: -> sudo apt-get clean, sudo apt-get autoclean , sudo apt-get autoremove <- for general housecleaning. rtemoves obsolere and files that can no longer be downloaded .. more is to remove the caches .
[02:09] <yosry> kostkon: i empty my personal stuff
[02:10] <yosry> Bashing-om: thx alot
[02:10] <yosry> kostkon: thx alot :) :)
[02:10] <kostkon> yosry, np
[02:12] <Bashing-om> yosry: ^^ me too and the cat in my lap - helps typing, Not !
[02:13] <dimelord> Hello?
[02:13] <dimelord> Hey!
[02:14] <dimelord> Can you guys see me
[02:14] <Beldar> no
[02:14] <dimelord> lol
[02:17] <Guest20568> hmm okay having played with wubi for a while now, i agree that a dedicated partition would be nicer, will get some usb stick to put the hp tools on so i can throw out sda4 and use extended partitions, cu :)
[02:20] <pinPoint> what is the best way to clone a drive to a larger one? I tried clonezilla and I kept getting errors with the drive not being caught
[02:20] <pinPoint> not being seen.*
[02:20] <pinPoint> tried moving the drive to multiple sata ports and no joy
[02:21] <Beldar> pinPoint, Does the new drive have a partition table, does it show from a live booted?
[02:22] <pinPoint> well I was running test before the drive gets here. Perhaps its better if I had one plugged in I assume?
[02:24] <Beldar> pinPoint, So the hD you want to clone is not seen?
[02:25] <pinPoint> well I select my source drive then the software collapses
[02:25] <Beldar> pinPoint, Have you used clonezilla before?
[02:25] <pinPoint> I assume the livecd is looking for a secondary drive that I do not have at the moment until tomorrow
[02:26] <pinPoint> Beldar: I have not but followed their guide online
[02:26] <pinPoint> Beldar: Ill wait for drive to arrive since that might be the reason that the livecd is falling out.
[02:26] <Mave-Figali> hello guys
[02:26] <Beldar> pinPoint, It's basic use is to make a set off packages to another HD like an external for installing back to the new HD.
[02:27] <Beldar> of*
[02:27] <Mave-Figali> i am new to ubuntu and want to install ubuntu server 14.04.1
[02:27] <RoBo_V> I just installed Ubuntu, its freezing again and again
[02:28] <Mave-Figali> the installation was very easy but after installation i get black screen and my monitor is in standby
[02:28] <RoBo_V> have to go to nvidia driver from Noveau ?
[02:28] <Mave-Figali> nomodeset, xforcevesa etc. was tried without success
[02:29] <Mave-Figali> my system: intel atom d2700, 2.13Ghz  4Gb RAM, integrated graphic
[02:29] <Mave-Figali> anyone can help?
[02:30] <Beldar> pinPoint, clonezilla has their own bootable.
[02:30] <pinPoint> Beldar: I used the iso file to make the bootable
[02:31] <Mave-Figali> noone an idea? :(
[02:31] <Beldar> pinPoint, Do you have an external to put the clone on, or another HD?
[02:31] <pinPoint> their own from the site. I think the livecd is just trying to look for a second drive that it cannot find then it dies. So I think I'll wait for the second drive to arrive tomorrow before I try
[02:32] <pinPoint> before I try again, I was just getting ahead of things.
[02:32] <Beldar> pinPoint, It's not a mirror cloner, but makes packages for reloading the OS.
[02:33] <Beldar> the OS meaning what you have cloned
[02:36] <OerHeks> Mave-Figali, try booting with forced vga mode, as you just run server https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootText

[03:06] <joshuasm32> I have a quick question...
[03:06] <Psil0Cybin> quick answer.
[03:06] <ObrienDave> not so quick answer
[03:06] <Psil0Cybin> slow and steady wins the race.
[03:06] <joshuasm32> Haha I really miss the Windows feature that puts your cursor to dialogue boxes
[03:06] <joshuasm32> A lot less effort
[03:06] <ObrienDave> and i'm old and slow ;P
[03:07] <joshuasm32> Is there a way to do that in Ubuntu?
[03:07] <Psil0Cybin> Do you mean tab?
[03:07] <Psil0Cybin> when i run tab it takes it right to the dialog or the options on the top?
[03:07] <joshuasm32> When a new dialogue pops up, the folder options allow you to move the cursor to the highlited button
[03:07] <joshuasm32> at least in windows
[03:07] <joshuasm32> eg a confirmation
[03:07] <Psil0Cybin> Hmm let me see, never tried to do that
[03:08] <joshuasm32> Thanks :)
[03:10] <Psil0Cybin> dang joshuasm32 cannot help you with hot keys.. :( looks like the thing you want is unique.
[03:10] <joshuasm32> Alright.  Thanks for trying though.
[03:11] <Psil0Cybin> No problem I just need to ack up my things i will try to help you in a few minutes when I am back on
[03:11] <joshuasm32> Oh, the windows option was in mouse properies btw not folder options
[03:12] <joshuasm32> Image of it: http://www.watchingthenet.com/wp-content/uploads/image/snapmouse2.png
[03:13] <joshuasm32> Just in case I was confusing
[03:16]  * Beldar notices their index finger is the biggest one of all, on both hands from all that clicking
[03:17] <joshuasm32> lol
[03:18] <ObrienDave> "stubby index finger, tapping out the code" lol
[03:20] <ObrienDave> cant remember the name of that movie. Mickey Rooney, John Astin (Gomez Addams)
[03:20] <Beldar> Evil Roy Slade
[03:21] <Beldar> When I think of Rooney I rember him doing balck face
[03:21] <Beldar> black*
[03:22] <Beldar> yee old minstrelsy movie style
[03:22] <Knifa> hey there
[03:22] <joshuasm32> hey
[03:22] <ObrienDave> Evil Roy Slade, that's it LMAO funny movie
[03:22] <Knifa> does anyone know what's going on with this package? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/git-http-backend.1.html
[03:22] <Knifa> the actual binary is missing
[03:22] <Knifa> only the man page is included
[03:22] <joshuasm32> ...
[03:22] <Knifa> yes that was my thought
[03:23] <Knifa> wait actually i am being hella stupid
[03:27] <Knifa> yes it turns out i was just being immensely stupid
[03:27] <joshuasm32> lol
[03:27] <Knifa> it just wasn't in the place i was expecting
[03:28] <joshuasm32> Mkay :)
[03:28] <Knifa> the git utils are not on the path by default
[03:28] <Knifa> they're all in /usr/lib/git-core
[03:29] <Knifa> thanks in any case!
[03:34] <joshuasm32> Anywho, is it possible to recreate this Windows feature http://www.watchingthenet.com/wp-content/uploads/image/snapmouse2.png with Ubuntu?
[03:35] <Zirg> hey gang. using cli, what command may i use to find out what 'package' installed 'file/dir' ? (.e.g. /home/$user/.gnupg )
[03:35] <Beldar> joshuasm32, I see nothing on the web, might look at compiz
[03:35] <Beldar> If you use unity
[03:35] <joshuasm32> Yeah
[03:36] <joshuasm32> I'm pretty knew to Ubuntu, but I've used others like Fedora and Tails here and there
[03:37] <joshuasm32> Are you referring to "Compiz Fusion?"
[03:37] <SchrodingersScat> a little gnu here?
[03:37] <darklessness> hello how are you
[03:37] <darklessness> ubuntu 14 server got lots of bugsd
[03:38] <Zirg> anyone?? doesn't dpkg or another allow for my search?
[03:38] <Beldar> joshuasm32, compiz the window manager, honestly I don't think what you want exists in ubuntu or linux.
[03:39] <joshuasm32> Like I said, newb :)
[03:39] <rww> Zirg: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[03:39] <joshuasm32> found it
[03:39] <Zirg> rww, i'll try it. thank you.
[03:41] <joshuasm32> I think I'll just stick with the standard settings D:
[03:41] <joshuasm32> Thanks for the help anyway :)
[03:41] <Zirg> rww, Thank You. Very Appreciated!
[03:53] <FreeNow> what is good software for making an animated video similar to a video made by fast-forwarding whiteboard drawings
[03:55] <somsip> darklessness: do you have a specific issue?
[03:57] <FreeNow> I essentially need something like this http://www.videoscribe.co/
[03:57] <FreeNow> but for linux
[03:58] <somsip> FreeNow: a search shows that videoscribe can run under wine or playonlinux. Maybe that is a starting point?
[03:58] <RoBo_V> Guys my recenlty installed ubuntu freezing again nd again ?
[03:59] <FreeNow> somsip maybe but I don't want to pay all that money just to risk it not working in wine
[03:59] <FreeNow> robo_v what do you mean by freeze? can you be more specific please?
[03:59] <somsip> FreeNow: so you want a FOSS program like videoscribe?
[04:00] <somsip> FreeNow: or use the 7 day free trial...
[04:00] <FreeNow> somsip ideally, yes
[04:00] <FreeNow> somsip oh
[04:00] <FreeNow> somsip yea I guess I could do that
[04:00] <FreeNow> somsip but I need it for more than that
[04:00] <somsip> FreeNow: I think you can do a bit more research yourself here...
[04:01] <FreeNow> somsip i am already doing that
[04:01] <FreeNow> somsip I just asked to see if anyone knew
[04:01] <FreeNow> recommendations, etc
[04:02] <RoBo_V> FreeNow: Like when iam working on it suddenly all just freeze not any keys affect it tried alt ctrl f1 or soo...
[04:03] <FreeNow> robo_v so everything's frozen, no mouse movement?
[04:03] <RoBo_V> FreeNow: Yes Nothing everything freeze happened 2 times in 2 hours...
[04:04] <FreeNow> robo_v what are you running?
[04:04] <erikk> So I got Ubuntu installed, great. Now, I'd like to use Gnome 3 instead of Unity. Is it effective to just install the gnome-session-flashback and use that?
[04:04] <FreeNow> robo_v anything in wine?
[04:04] <erikk> I really don't have to worry about clearing anything out?
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> a nice way to troubleshoot is to look into the logs
[04:04] <RoBo_V> FreeNow: Nothing it is just fresh installation, 14.04.01
[04:05] <FreeNow> erikk I think if you uninstall unity that works.  also fyi there is a separate distro for Ubuntu with Gnome: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_GNOME
[04:05] <lotuspsychje> !gnome | erikk
[04:05] <FreeNow> lotuspsyche how is robo_v supposed to check the logs when it's frozen.
[04:06] <erikk> FreeNow: So can I uninstall unity, then install gnome, and then have a clean system with what I want?
[04:06] <lotuspsychje> FreeNow: failsafe/recoverymode from grub
[04:06] <erikk> That won't mess anything up and will be basically Ubuntu Gnome?
[04:06] <FreeNow> erikk when I installed gnome shell and then removed unity my computer would say "Ubuntu GNOME" after booting
[04:07] <FreeNow> erikk I can't guarantee anything though as this is just my experience
[04:07] <erikk> Is it safe to do exactly that? Uninstall unity and then install gnome?
[04:07] <erikk> Oh, okay
[04:07] <erikk> Any other opinions before I attempt to do the same?
[04:07] <lotuspsychje> erikk: otherway around, first install gnome then uninstall unity
[04:07] <lotuspsychje> !notunity | erikk
[04:08] <erikk> lotuspsychje: Okay. I'm fairly new to this and just want to make sure I'm not going to ruin anything
[04:08] <FreeNow> erikk also remember to choose GDM as the default display manager when prompted
[04:08] <FreeNow> erikk and yes like lotus said install gnome shell first
[04:08] <lotuspsychje> erikk: if you dont like unity you can also try ubuntu-gnome, lubuntu or xubuntu
[04:09] <FreeNow> erikk lotuspsychje yes if this is a fresh install you might want to switch to ubuntu gnome
[04:09] <Beldar> unity is basically gnome 3 the shel is just a few more packages, removing unity is a bad idea, it is rather tiny.
[04:09] <erikk> FreeNow: How would that help?
[04:10] <FreeNow> erikk because then you make sure that you have all the gnome packages
[04:10] <erikk> Hmm
[04:10] <FreeNow> among other things
[04:10] <FreeNow> it's just cleaner
[04:10] <erikk> I've got some work to work on, so I'll probably just leave this for now and then do it in 12 hours when the night passes and day work is done
[04:11] <erikk> Is Ubuntu Gnome officially supported?
[04:11] <erikk> Or is it like a side project that is endorsed?
[04:12] <FreeNow> erikk I believe it is officially supporte
[04:12] <FreeNow> d
[04:12] <FreeNow> 90% sure
[04:12] <erikk> Thanks for the info guys
[04:12] <erikk> I was hesitant to switch from debian to ubuntu but feel it is a decent choice for productivity
[04:12] <erikk> at least since although I have technically used linux for a while my knowledge is still sub par. :P
[04:13] <lotuspsychje> !info gnome-shell | erikk
[04:13] <FreeNow> erikk what made you switch?
[04:13] <FreeNow> I use debian
[04:13] <FreeNow> formerly ubuntu
[04:14] <erikk> Perhaps we should not talk about itt in this channel if this is for support and not general conversation
[04:14] <erikk> Unless that is allowed
[04:14] <FreeNow> sure, #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:25] <Guest28597> how do you get your sound to switch from built in speakers to hdmi and vice versa automatically? I have to go into my sound settings every time I switch from hdmi to built in speakers and do it manually.

[04:40] <RoBo_V> Linus Torvalds was approached by NSA for backdoor in Linux-  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwRYyWn7BEo
[04:43] <tr0n> Robo_V doesnt suprise me
[04:48] <RoBo_V> tr0n: means linux at risk  :(
[04:49] <tr0n> RoBo_V: pretty soon we're gonna need to compile our own OS
[04:51] <RoBo_V> tr0n: that what i was going to ask,  still we can't verify linux source code a ? (as one person asked realted ques to Nils Trovalds in that video)
[04:54] <ses1984> i'm using 14.04, i have an amd 5850 graphics card, and i was just wondering, is it possible to get direct rendering with the proprietary driver?
[04:55] <ses1984> i'm trying to play some steam games with the open source driver and there's major artifacting going on, i want to swtich to the proprietary driver to try it but steam complains about no direct rendering
[04:55] <ses1984> glxinfo says that i have no direct rendering
[04:56] <tr0n> RoBo_V: anybody can verify linux source if they have the time to do so.  the problem is whether that compiled version we download is that exact version
[04:56] <VeiledSpectre> Hey all - sorry to drop in, but I have a question - I just installed the proprietary nvidia drivers for my Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M Card in Kubuntu and for some reason, my resolution went "down".  While the machine claims that it is using the right card and driver, and the system settings say the resolution is the same, there is visibly less screen space.  Has anyone experienced a similar issue before?
[04:57] <RoBo_V> tr0n: IDK if you watched video but one person ask ques and says to Nils, that it is not possible to review your soruce code.
[04:58] <RoBo_V> Closed source what they refer
[04:58] <RoBo_V> IDK
[05:00] <tr0n> RoBo_V: I watched intro and saw that part.  he was referring to closed source not being able to verify.  linux is open source so all code is available for inspection
[05:01] <RoBo_V> tr0n: But is there a team, who regulary checks for backdoor in linux ? So that no party insert the backdoor and roll out the distro to general public
[05:03] <tr0n> RoBo_V: Many many people contribute code to the linux kernel.  if there was a backdoor installed it would be picked up quickly.  however it is not 100% foolproof
[05:04] <RoBo_V> tr0n: I see, and all kernel code is just C ?
[05:06] <tr0n> RoBo_V: yeah i believe most of it is
[05:21] <RoBo_V> guys if anyone can guide, i want to install software in some particular directory wihtout going there how i combined commands like cd /pi/tech and  wget [url]

[06:36] <sveinse> I would like to run a script as root, either using sudo or gksu. How can I detect which auth tool to use. I.e. how can I detect if I'm running X or not from a script?
[06:39] <milligan> I am on 14.04, trusty, and I cannot for the love of God enable root ssh login. I have to log in via another account. In ssh config, I have disabled strict mode, I have set to permit root login. What else could be blocking me ?
[06:40] <milligan> nvm
[06:40] <milligan> fixed it
[06:45] <rwp> sveinse, If $DISPLAY is set then you are probably running in an X session. Not perfect but perhaps good enough.
[06:45] <gshmu> if anyone can auto completion all aliases?
[06:46] <sveinse> rwp: Yeah, probably. BTW: Do you know an "intelligent" su tool that can sense this automatically?
[06:47] <Kartagis> gshmu: what?
[06:47] <rwp> sveinse, Nope. But that doesn't mean something doesn't exist.
[06:48] <gshmu> Kartagis: set bash completion to work with all aliases?
[06:49] <Kartagis> gshmu: it should do it out of the box
[06:49] <gshmu> Kartagis: how to do it, i don't want set it one by one
[06:50] <Kartagis> gshmu: just open a new terminal and your bash completion will work on all aliases
[06:50] <Kartagis> gshmu: remember that I told you it works out of the box?
[06:51] <gshmu> Kartagis: go= 'git checkout'  and then `$ go m<tab>` didn't work...
[06:52] <Kartagis> gshmu: it should be alias go='git checkout'
[06:53] <Kartagis> gshmu: oh, you mean bash completion on parameters?
[06:53] <gshmu> Kartagis:  yeah, I mean, complete to `go master`
[06:54] <Basketball> eeee, you here
[06:54] <Kartagis> gshmu: sorry, I have no experience in that, but you can look at the scripts in /etc/bash_completion.d/
[06:55] <gshmu> Kartagis: I find some function, but I think it should using for all alias at set once

[07:06] <guite> vijai: x550ln :)
[07:07] <vijai> How did you manage to install the os in first hand guite?
[07:07] <Kartagis> on Ubuntu, there is an application in which you point to an image, then a directory; and the application takes all the images in the directory and uses them to compose the image pointed to earler. does anyone remember the application's name?
[07:07] <vijai> guite: Mine doesnt even work in live boot
[07:08] <guite> vijai: I’m not sure to understand what you mean (maybe also because my english is not perfect)
[07:08] <guite> vijai: hmmmm… have you got an usb mouse ?
[07:08] <vijai> I meant, my touchpad doesnt even work in installation window
[07:08] <guite> vijai: I’m sorry to say that but if you don’t have one, buy it :)
[07:08] <Akiva-Thinkpad> Does QML stand for Question Mark Language?
[07:08] <vijai> during live boot from dvd I mean
[07:08] <vijai> yeah... on my desktop pc
[07:09] <guite> vijai: live boot works fine as long as I don’t touch the touchpad
[07:09] <vijai> my pointer wanders about even without me touching it
[07:09] <guite> vijai: so use your usb mouse from your other pc on your laptop and you should be able to install
[07:09] <guite> vijai: yes, I had that also :D
[07:10] <vijai> Is this going to be a permanent problem?
[07:10] <guite> vijai: it was horrible pain… open a terminal ctrl+alt+t
[07:10] <guite> vijai: and type “sudo modprobe -r psmouse”
[07:11] <guite> vijai: touchpad will be fully deactivated and your usb mouse will work fine
[07:12] <guite> usb mouse and touchpad are more or less “colliding” as long as you don’t fully deactivate the touchpad
[07:12] <vijai> Ok... :/
[07:12] <vijai> Is this a permanent problem?
[07:12] <vijai> or ubuntu working on it?
[07:12] <guite> I don’t know what you mean by “permanent” but the bug has been reported… waiting for someone to fix it
[07:13] <guite> I’d like to work on it if I could but I know so less in linux kernel development xD
[07:13] <vijai> By permanent, I mean is this not goin to be fixed or any fix will be rolled out in future?
[07:13] <guite> it’s supposed to be fix… bug is still open
[07:14] <vijai> Yeah... I could not live without linux on any pc
[07:14] <guite> and with high priority if I remember well
[07:14] <vijai> using windose for now
[07:15] <guite> vijai: Did you try to deactivate the touchpad for installation ? Was it ok ?
[07:15] <vijai> still in windows
[07:15] <vijai> not home so no usb mouse
[07:15] <vijai> will have to go home and then try
[07:16] <guite> oh ok
[07:17] <guite> I don’t know if there is a way to use the touchpad as a regular (no multitouch) touchpad before installing ubuntu
[07:17] <guite> there is no grub parameters in live boot… I guess
[07:17] <vijai> I tried getting into grub (lame, I know) from live dvd. but failed as expected
[07:17] <ikonia> you can set parameters
[07:18] <vijai> yes there is no parameters for grub
[07:18] <ikonia> you can set them though
[07:18] <vijai> how ikonia?
[07:18] <guite> ikonia: oh oh oh :) I’m curious… tell me how :)
[07:18] <ikonia> on the livecd there is an option (F6 I think from memory) where you can modify the boot line
[07:18] <vijai> will help me much now :D
[07:20] <jjavaholic> I can't delete a font in |Font-manager delete button is greyed out
[07:20] <vijai> ok ikonia gonna try now and get back
[07:21] <guite> ikonia: I don’t get it :) When do you press f6 ?
[07:21] <guite> ikonia: when the main screen of the livecd appear ?
[07:21] <ikonia> guite: correct, when you see the menu options eg: try ubuntu
[07:21] <guite> or after a “try without install” ?
[07:21] <guite> ikonia: kthx
[07:21] <guite> ikonia: thanks SO MUCH ! :D
[07:22] <guite> I almost turned crazy with all this
[07:27] <skylto> How to control the sending rate of UDP? help me...
[07:27] <skylto> If the sending packet loss too fast, too much, otherwise, the efficiency is not high
[07:27] <ikonia> what application is sending them ?
[07:27] <Valarkin_> morning ikonia
[07:28] <skylto> My English is poor, sorry
[07:28] <ikonia> skylto: what application is sending udp packets
[07:29] <skylto>  ikonia: Mobile application
[07:29] <ikonia> skylto: what is the name of the application
[07:30] <skylto> ikonia: I made it
[07:30] <ikonia> skylto: then you need to control it within the application
[07:31] <vijai> ikonia: guite:
[07:31] <skylto> ikonia: yes,But do not know what way
[07:31] <vijai> It did work
[07:31] <ikonia> skylto: then you need to learn
[07:31] <vijai> thanks :)
[07:31] <ikonia> skylto: it's not really an ubuntu issue
[07:31] <ikonia> vijai: pleased.
[07:31] <vijai> the key was f6 to go to the menu then f6 again to edit boot config
[07:31] <ikonia> there we go
[07:32] <vijai> Gonna install os finally now :)
[07:32] <skylto> ikonia: I should go to the channel? are you know?
[07:33] <ikonia> skylto: no idea
[07:33] <skylto> ikonia: Even so, thank you very much
[07:34] <guite> skylto: what do you use to send udp packets ?
[07:34] <ikonia> an application he has writte
[07:34] <ikonia> written
[07:34] <guite> yes, but with what kind of lib, compiler etc…
[07:34] <guite> :)
[07:34] <skylto> guite:yes
[07:35] <ikonia> guite: talk to skylto in private about that, it's not really a topic for #ubuntu
[07:35] <guite> ok sorry
[07:35] <guite> was wondering, just in case :)
[07:35] <ikonia> no problem
[07:45] <vijai> installed the os. Thanks guite and ikonia :)
[07:45] <guite> vijai: no problem :) if in any chance you succeed in repairing the brightness buttons (I guess there is one on your laptop also) tell me how :D
[07:46] <vijai> lol... Just tried and was wtf! this doesnt work too? :D
[07:46] <guite> vijai: you might also have problem with bluetooth, but I think I’ve found a solution… didn’t try it so far :)
[07:46] <RoBo_V> in order to upgrade https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-uptodate.en.html  9.1.1 or 9.1.2 ?
[07:46] <ikonia> RoBo_V: that's for debian
[07:47] <guite> vijai: these are the main problems of my computer, bluetooth, touchpad and brightness button
[07:47] <RoBo_V> Ubuntu is debian, is it not ?
[07:47] <ikonia> RoBo_V: no, it's based on debian
[07:47] <vijai> bluetooth turned off perfect to me
[07:47] <ikonia> RoBo_V: a lot of the concepts are the same, but things differ
[07:47] <guite> vijai: you’re so lucky xD
[07:47] <vijai> wifi seems to be connecting for ages
[07:47] <ikonia> RoBo_V: in this case the package managers, it's down to you to pick what options you like best
[07:47] <Valarkin_> ikonia, found what I think is a decent page on raid  - https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_setup - Do you see anything that renders it wrong?
[07:48] <Valarkin_> just a quick scan if you could please.
[07:48] <ikonia> Valarkin_: it's a good url
[07:48] <Valarkin_> cool, thanks. off to learn more
[07:48] <RoBo_V> okk
[07:49] <vijai> Not so much guite
[07:49] <vijai> wifi seems to be not working good
[07:49] <vijai> connects for life
[07:49] <vijai> using usb modem now
[07:49] <guite> ok, wifi and bluetooth problems seem related…
[07:49] <guite> vijai: is your wifi device a broadcom one ?
[07:49] <guite> (I used windose to determine that)
[07:50] <guite> (there sure is another way… that I don’t know)
[07:50] <vijai> think so
[07:50] <vijai> forgot xD
[07:51] <vijai> guite: It is broadcom
[07:53] <vijai> guite: sorry its realtek RT3290
[07:53] <guite> uh oh… not competent anymore… :s
[07:54] <vijai> and bt is ralink 3290
[07:54] <guite> vijai: sorry I have no idea how to fix this… but I think that you’ll find help on the web…
[07:54] <vijai> Not a problem guite :)
[07:54] <vijai> I will try to fix them :)
[07:56] <dbugger> Hello everyone
[07:56] <vijai> My most highest priority now is to fix the brightness guite:
[07:56] <vijai> it hurts my eyes
[07:57] <guite> me too :'(
[07:58] <vijai> guite: did you try any app for it?
[07:58] <vijai> guite: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/brightness-controller/
[07:58] <vijai> did not try but somehow feel it may work
[07:59] <guite> vijai: you mean that this fixes the brightness button ?
[08:00] <vijai> guite: no... it adds a app to control it
[08:00] <guite> vijai: there’s already one in unity
[08:00] <vijai> something is better than not having anything
[08:00] <guite> don’t bother to install this :)
[08:00] <guite> vijai: your computer is in english right ?
[08:01] <vijai> oh...sorry... forgot that :D
[08:01] <vijai> yeah... found it :)
[08:01] <guite> ok :)
[08:01] <guite> but then… you reboot
[08:01] <guite> and then… your eyes hurt again >_<
[08:02] <vijai> at least that works :D
[08:02] <vijai> Not so bad as my wifi :P
[08:02] <guite> I didn’t find how to keep the brightness at the same value when rebooting
[08:05] <vijai> guite: you can do that in rc.local :)
[08:05] <guite> with echo <value> > /sys/class… ?
[08:05] <vijai> you can echo the brightness level to brightness controller
[08:05] <vijai> yes :)
[08:05] <guite> yeah, I hate this solution :)
[08:05] <vijai> echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
[08:06] <vijai> but serves the purpose well :D
[08:06] <guite> maybe I will resign myself anyway :D
[08:06] <vijai> found a fix for my wireless hw :D
[08:12] <tasslehoff> is there a way to disable the win-<num> shortcuts?
[08:13] <jjavaholic> can't remove font using font-manager: http://i.imgur.com/iuIIa61.png
[08:15] <krriz0games> :P
[08:15] <Valarkin_> ikonia - a background question: Assume / and swap are on a single hdd and the other disks are in a raid5/6 array with /home. If the sys hdd failswith no redundancy, will the /home array be available once the hd is replaced and the system reinstalled? I appreciate there would be some need to get everything configged so it knoew the array was there, but from a data stability standpoint?
[08:16] <guite> jjavaholic: you might need to be root to perform this operation…
[08:16] <guite> (I guess)
[08:16] <jjavaholic> I have tried sudo font-manager
[08:16] <krriz0games> Hola!! :) alguen habla espa1 ;;;
[08:17] <bcvery1> !es | krriz0games
[08:17] <krriz0games> ahh ok gracias por la informacion soy nuevo en ubuntu! :)
[08:18] <ikonia> Valarkin_: it would be available
[08:18] <ikonia> Valarkin_: you'd just need to re-assemble/start the array
[08:18] <guite> jjavaholic: ok, sorry, not much idea
[08:19] <guite> jjavaholic: maybe lightdm is using it and so you can’t remove it while lightdm is running…
[08:19] <guite> but I don’t want to mislead you
[08:19] <Valarkin_> ikonia: SWEET! I have reinstalled the OS using their "aæll on one disk" option. That leaves the other 5 drives completely untouched. tSo I should be able to just create a new array from them. Much easier than trying to reconfig an existing arry.
[08:19] <ikonia> Valarkin_: seems resonable
[08:19] <Valarkin_> As ever, i appreciate your patience and tolerance :D
[08:20] <leotr> hi
[08:20] <Humbedooh> whoever invented raid 6 should be publicly flogged ;(
[08:20] <Valarkin_> why's that Hum?
[08:20] <Humbedooh> it's terrible!
[08:20] <Valarkin_> that doesn't tell me anyething ;)
[08:20] <Humbedooh> go for raid 10 if you want to retain your sanity
[08:20] <evil_dan2wik> d
[08:21] <ikonia> raid 10 is totally different from raid 6 and should not be considered as an "alternative"
[08:21] <ikonia> it is a different technique with different requirements
[08:21] <Humbedooh> I didn't say they were the same
[08:21] <evil_dan2wik> Humbedooh, my guess is that you are using raid 6 wrong
[08:21] <ikonia> Valarkin_: I suggest you carry on as you see best for your needs
[08:22] <Valarkin_> thanks ikonia - that was my feeling too.
[08:22] <Valarkin_> It sux and a rephrased it sux
[08:22] <Valarkin_> is not a useful review ;)
[08:22] <Humbedooh> well, as long as your disks don't die on you, I guess it's okay
[08:22] <Humbedooh> but the resilvering.... >_<
[08:26] <Valarkin_> Humbedooh: http://www.datamation.com/storage/data-storage-the-myth-of-redundancy-1.html ?
[08:26] <jjavaholic> how would I test for lightdm interference?
[08:28] <irgendwer4711> hi, I have some trouble compiling a new kernel. I got some "multiple declarations" error (translated) in make: ubuntu/built-in.o: In Funktion `i915_gem_prime_export':
[08:29] <bcvery1> jjavaholic, You could try removing them without Font Manager: http://askubuntu.com/questions/214950/how-can-i-remove-fonts-that-i-never-use-from-libreoffice-and-linux-in-general
[08:29] <guite> jjavaholic: I think bcvery1’s idea is better :)
[08:29] <bcvery1> jjavaholic, At least it may give you a useful error if you're not able to.
[08:30] <jjavaholic> I was already looking at that askubuntu page
[08:32] <Kartagis> on Ubuntu, there is a binary in which you point to an image, then a directory; and the binary takes all the images in the directory and uses them to compose the image pointed to earler. does anyone remember the binary's name?
[08:32] <Kartagis> it's similar to shape collage
[08:32] <jjavaholic> what would be the appropriate permissions for /usr/share/fonts what would the chmod = chown look like?
[08:32] <Kartagis> except it creates, say the eye, with images

[08:36] <martin1989> hi everibody
[08:36] <martin1989> what's going on ikonia?
[08:36] <bcvery1> jjavaholic, drwxr-xr-x root root  -- at least those are mine.
[08:36] <samthewildone> ikonia, never mind
[08:37] <jjavaholic> have you tried font-manager with these permissions?

[08:44] <nebuchadnezzar> I search internet and launchpad without success
[08:45] <jjavaholic> bcvery1: and the majority of your fonts are in ~/.fonts?
[08:45] <bcvery1> jjavaholic, Yes, at least the ones I've added are; and they work fine.
[08:48] <jjavaholic> bcvery1: I was already starting to suspect a missing library

[09:35] <cfhowlett> belea, take it up with wordpress or amazon?
[09:35] <gdm85> belea: fatrace and iotop

[09:47] <blackyboy> how to rsync a directory from local host to remote host using ssh keyfile through ssh port 1001
[09:48] <cfhowlett> !password | pratikxolt
[09:49] <lang> blackyboy: you can modify the rsh command rsync uses with the "-e" command.  so: rsync -e 'ssh -p 1001 etc.'
[09:51] <blackyboy> lang: this what im using   rsync -avz -e 'ssh -p 1001' -i ~/.ssh/boy_id_rsa --progress /var/www/html/rsync/ dev@<IP_ADDRESS>:/var/www/html/
[09:51] <blackyboy> but cant get connect
[09:57] <lang> blackyboy: the -i parameter is a ssh parameter and not rsync.  so you need to put that insite the '' after -e.
[09:57] <blackyboy> oh ok let me try

[11:13] <Valarkin_> ikonia - the docs I am looking at for fstab talk about using UUID's but when I go into the file itself it's much more human readable form - should I just follow the pattern in my fstab?

[11:31] <laurens181> hi
[11:31] <laurens181> I have got a problem with my Fn volume keys on my laptop after doing some commands
[11:33] <laurens181> I basically tried to make my microphone work, so I googled for it and ran the following commands:
[11:33] <laurens181> echo "autospawn = no" > ~/.pulse/client.conf
[11:33] <laurens181> killall pulseaudio
[11:33] <cfhowlett> laurens181, so you killed sound.
[11:33] <laurens181> Basically eys
[11:34] <laurens181> after that I tried to repair it by deleting the file I created and restarting my laptop
[11:35] <laurens181> O wow, the fN keys suddenly work again :\
[11:39] <laurens181> Well anyway, my microphone doesn't work as in my System Settings > Hardware > Sound > tab Input. It doesn't give any sound level when I speak, blow or tap on the microphone.... ?
[11:40] <eeee> laurens181:  maybe you should buy it a drink first, then try again
[11:41] <reversiblean> dmesg shows that both vesafb and uvesafb drivers are loaded. Is something wrong?
[11:43] <reversiblean> eeee: is it normal? Or should I need to enable only one?
[11:45] <laurens181> eeee: Do you know whether it either loves Ale or Stout
[11:46] <eeee> laurens181: try fiddling with alsamixer maybe
[11:46] <eeee> run alsamixer in the terminal
[11:46] <eeee> nevermind
[11:46] <eeee> hold on
[11:48] <eeee> laurens181: don't run that
[11:51] <laurens181> eeee: I shouldn't run alsamixer?
[11:51] <eeee> reversiblean: no idea, sorry
[11:52] <reversiblean> eeee: np
[11:52] <ulkesh> What would be the best method to remove xubuntu-desktop?  I installed it, tried to tweak it to my liking, found some problems I don't feel like overcoming.  Would sudo apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop be enough? Or do I need to vet every package that it tried to install (looking at /var/log/apt/history)?
[11:52] <laurens181> When I try to record sound in audacity with different audio inputs, the only thing I get is noise
[11:54] <eeee> ulkesh: sudo apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get autoremove
[11:54] <bcvery1> laurens181, Are you using pavucontrol?
[11:55] <ulkesh> eeee: Thanks, I'll try that real quick.
[11:55] <laurens181> bcvery1: Don't know?
[11:55] <laurens181> bcvery1: I do use pulseaudio
[11:55] <ktosiek> hi! I'm having ~4s lag when playing sound through BT (A2DP) headset. There's no noticable lag when using builtin sound card. What might be the problem?
[11:56] <bcvery1> laurens181, You may need to install it with: sudo apt-get install pavucontrol
[11:56] <ulkesh> eeee: I don't think it got rid of everything, but worst case I can deal with each package independently (that I found in the history log).
[11:56] <bcvery1> laurens181, Then launch it with: pavucontrol
[11:56] <laurens181> bcvery1: I have that already installed ( I just checked that (and opened it))
[11:57] <bcvery1> laurens181, Is it able to show you where the 'noise' is coming from?  You can select 'All streams' from the dropdown box at the bottom of the Input tab
[11:57] <laurens181> bcvery1: Ah kk
[11:57] <eeee> ulkesh: ok hold on a sec
[11:59] <laurens181> bcvery1: Well, it is in dutch (I am going to try to translate), the noise is coming from 'Internal sound Analog stereo'

[12:04] <pavelz> hi I have an urgent problem I can't find proper solution anywhere, I have upgraded my server and app armor seems to be killing off server processes right after start.
[12:06] <pavelz> is there a specific file where I can stop it from running? rc*.d does not seem to have a link...
[12:06] <eeee> ulkesh: might need to add a -y to the command
[12:07] <pavelz> I need to disable it on *mounted* disk with system containg apparmor not being live - since it kills sshd too\
[12:09] <eeee> ulkesh: so it doesn't ask for confirmation
[12:11] <laurens181> pavelz: I am NOT a ubuntu expert. But google found this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/suse-ubuntu-linux-start-stop-restart-apparmor-command/
[12:11] <ulkesh> eeee: That's a similar list that I found in the history log, but I would've had to remove a lot from the history log (version numbers, etc).  You saved me a lot of time, thank you!
[12:11] <pavelz> laurens181: thats nice but i need to *ssh* into my system, but *apparmor* kill it
[12:11] <laurens181> pavelz: Do you have a GUI or an internet terminal where you can type commands?
[12:11] <pavelz> lol
[12:11] <laurens181> pavelz: So not right :P
[12:11] <laurens181> Just trying to hel
[12:11] <laurens181> p
[12:11] <eeee> ulkesh: np
[12:12] <ikonia> apparmor should not be killing ssh
[12:15] <pavelz> well this is after 12 -> 14 distupgrade.
[12:18] <kerozene> hey. I'm having horrible tearing issues while playing video (totem or vlc) with an ati card and fglrx-updates
[12:19] <intgr> Hi all! I'm trying to shrink a mdadm RAID1 volume. I already shrinked the filesystem and the mdadm metadata itself, but GParted won't allow me to resize the physical partitions and I'm too scared to use fdisk. Any alternatives?
[12:20] <ikonia> intgr: why won't gparted allow you to resize the partitions ?
[12:21] <intgr> I think because it doesn't know how to deal with mdadm partitions. It only allows resizing of partition types that it can handle itself (like filesystems).
[12:21] <ikonia> intgr: the partition shouldn't matter
[12:21] <intgr> I already did mdadm --stop, but resize is still grayed out
[12:21] <ikonia> intgr: is the array still active ?
[12:21] <intgr> No
[12:21] <intgr> And I refreshed GParted as well
[12:21] <ikonia> that seems very odd/wrong
[12:22] <intgr> When the array was still active, GParted had a lock icon next to it. Now the lock is gone.
[12:22] <ikonia> odd
[12:23] <intgr> I guess it's a safety feature, since GParted cannot see inside the mdadm metadata, it tries protect users from destroying it.
[12:23] <intgr> Maybe changing partition type temporarily will fool it.
[12:23] <ikonia> the metadata doesn't define the partition though
[12:23] <ikonia> thats still controlled by the partition table
[12:24] <intgr> :/
[12:24] <intgr> I'm using GParted Live btw.
[12:24] <ikonia> that should be fine
[12:28] <kerozene> hey. I'm having horrible tearing issues while playing video (totem or vlc) with an ati card and fglrx-updates
[12:29] <waykool99> question a bit complex: bought a new laptop. no manual included.  did several versions installing Ubuntu. now on (Ubuntu Studio) OEM Configuration install. BIOS has bullied by Microsoft to allow "Only" Win 7 & 8.x. Not allowed to brute-force the boot order. CMOS Defaults always wants '.EFI' file, brute forcing a Clean install of Win 8.x, which i deleted, plus all 7 partitions in GParted Live DVD Run. what might you suggest?
[12:30] <kerozene> looking up brute force
[12:34] <intgr> ikonia: Oh, I guess I can remove one partition from the RAID, recreate a smaller one and re-add it to the mdadm array, then do the other disk...
[12:35] <intgr> Thanks anyway ﺕ
[12:36] <fatih> hiw
[12:37] <fatih> Is it possible to delete a file that belongs to a package safely? Without breaking the package itself? I don't want to create the package myself without that single file. But also it shouldn't complain when I update the package
[12:39] <Guest71347> Hola a todos
[12:41] <Valarkin_> ikonia - success! Thanks again for all your help and forbearance.

[12:46] <indn1234> Noob question - I have Ubuntu on a single partition 500GB HDD. Can I repartition it to install Windows 7 as a dual boot setup?
[12:47] <hanasaki> indn1234:  boot off a  usb live linux an ddo it
[12:52] <Fullgrim> indn1234: yep, but you will have to reinstall grub from the live usb, cause Windoze clears the MBR to set up its boot sequence
[12:52] <cfhowlett> indn1234, you can.  boot ubuntu live usb, run gpartd, make the space.  it'll take quite a while.  also, after installing win7, you will need to reinstall grub
[12:53] <wuschLOR> hi guys I've got a problem with my girfriends gurb - when i start the laptop it allwasy throws me to grub rescue / i tried to boot via live system and install grub but it didnt work at all do you have any suggestions what to do now ?
[12:53] <consolelog> hey all, I just ran an apt-get upgrade on Ubuntu 12.04 and got this:
[12:53] <consolelog> warn: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists.  However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged..
[12:53] <consolelog> is this something to be scared of, or ignorable?
[12:54] <hanasaki> htat brings to mind....  is there a good bootmanager that can be installed on the first partition and maintains itself and finds inewly installed OS'?
[12:55] <hanasaki> grub needing files from /etc is a bit annoying
[12:55] <consolelog> I'm running on an HP Micro Server, os installed on a flash drive.  also has 4 hard drives in raid5 + truecrypt

[13:05] <mbrgm1> hi! I'm setting up user authentication with LDAP and was wondering what changing the order of services is /etc/nsswitch.conf would have an effect on.

[13:05] <Figali-Mave> for better explanation visit my server, http://figali.de/neueseite15/index.php
[13:05] <mbrgm1> I thought about putting ldap first, i.e. "ldap files". are there some disadvantages to this strategy?
[13:05] <Figali-Mave> i dont know, why it can be
[13:06] <cfhowlett> RoBo_V, install?  sure.  use?  depends on your level of paranoia.
[13:06] <Figali-Mave> maybe is php5 broken?
[13:07] <RoBo_V> cfhowlett: I mean any kinf of backdoor or something reported on it ? or I Just kep limited it to windows
[13:08] <cfhowlett> RoBo_V, none that microsoft has admitted to, but I think we can safely assume that all communications via internet, skype/microsoft or otherwise, are monitored and logged.
[13:09] <RoBo_V> cfhowlett: oh yea it is owned by microsoft now....
[13:09] <mbrgm1> Figali-Mave: check if you have  short_open_tag option available in your PHP setup; you used it but it is rendered by HTML. so either your PHP installation has the option disabled or there is some quote/double-quote issue before. change line 44 to <?php to check if the option is the problem; if it works, it is.

[13:47] <SuperLag> I have two external displays connected to my laptop. When I connected my laptop to the dock, and opened the lid, Chrome was on the leftmost display (2 -- 1 -- laptop), and I clicked the resize/restore button to unmaximize the window, and drag it over to my laptop display. The window is still open, but I can't find it.
[13:49] <SuperLag> I can open a new Chrome window on my laptop display, and then when I click on the Chrome icon, on the launcher, it shows both windows, but when I click on the window I want... it doesn't show up, and I can't find it
[13:49] <SonikkuAmerica> SuperLag: It opened in the background, most likely.
[13:49] <SonikkuAmerica> Chrome likes to do that.
[13:50] <SuperLag> SonikkuAmerica: the window I'm trying to find was an already-opened window. It has all my existing tabs open and everything.
[13:50] <SonikkuAmerica> Is it unresponive?
[13:50] <SonikkuAmerica> *unresponsive?

[13:54] <SuperLag> SonikkuAmerica: notice the laptop display at the far right, with the Chrome icon clicked on, so it gives me the opportunity to select which window I want. I can click the bottom one, which is a new Chrome window, opened on my internal display.
[13:54] <SuperLag> SonikkuAmerica: but it's really the top one I want, with all my tabs and everything
[13:55] <SonikkuAmerica> SuperLag: Alt+Tab?
[13:56] <SuperLag> SonikkuAmerica: tried that. Selected the window, but it doesn't come up. :/
[13:56] <cfhowlett> t_dot_zilla, dependencies???? apt-cache show red5-server
[13:56] <SonikkuAmerica> SuperLag: Run [ sudo killall google-chrome ] in a terminal, then restart Chrome and hit the "Restore" button on the yellow info bar that pops up.

[13:58] <Anarchic`> hey...i'm having problems with a multiple monitor setup...when making a video/stream full screen it's a gamble as to which screen it goes full screen on...is there a way to control which screen a full screened window goes to?
[13:59] <SuperLag> SonikkuAmerica: thanks man
[13:59] <cfhowlett> t_dot_zilla, not ignoring u.  waiting for the paste.  chinese internet is throttled
[13:59] <t_dot_zilla> thank cfhowlett
[14:00] <SonikkuAmerica> SuperLag: Yes, I know, but that's the workaround I know. You're welcome.
[14:00] <t_dot_zilla> cfhowlett: this is the red5 log
[14:00] <t_dot_zilla> http://p.bsd-unix.net/p78on2zzj
[14:00] <cfhowlett> t_dot_zilla, yes, sorry, but I'm not able to view this stuff.  ask someone else.   sorry.
[14:01] <SuperLag> SonikkuAmerica: and just to clarify - I'm not saying that you are lame, or the workaround is lame... it's just the fact that it had to come to that. :D
[14:01] <t_dot_zilla> oh
[14:01] <doSomeThing> will I get any badge or swags if I contribute in ubuntu?????????????????
[14:02] <cfhowlett> !contribute | doSomeThing
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> doSomeThing: you can get karma on launchpad.....
[14:02] <wheatthin> doSomeThing, you get self gratification
[14:02] <SuperLag> cfhowlett: are you in China?
[14:02] <blackangelpr> ^^ good morning all , buenos dias, zao shang hao, dobre utra :P
[14:02] <cfhowlett> SuperLag, nope.  just living /working there.
[14:03] <cfhowlett> blackangelpr, ask your ubuntu questions.
[14:03] <doSomeThing> but my question is will I get any badge or swag like t-shirt etc
[14:03] <wheatthin> argh I had to move to gnome classic, cause there's a problem with gittering with gnome-shell, as it climbs to almost 400mb when using it
[14:04] <SonikkuAmerica> !cookie | doSomeThing
[14:04] <blackangelpr> cfhowlett, what is your graphic card?
[14:04] <cfhowlett> doSomeThing, you can buy such from the ubuntu store.
[14:04] <doSomeThing> :P
[14:04] <cfhowlett> blackangelpr, why?
[14:04] <blackangelpr> cfhowlett, i am runion on 5870m on ubuntu 14.04  update graphic ones  no problem
[14:04] <blackangelpr> cfhowlett, some graphic cards are not supported
[14:05] <cfhowlett> blackangelpr, OK ... I think maybe wheatthin is having the graphics issues, not me.
[14:05] <blackangelpr> ^^ sorry
[14:05] <blackangelpr> chat goes quit quit i lose track ^^
[14:05] <wheatthin> Yes I am,  and I think it is supported, cause I have fglrx drivers installed and in use.
[14:05] <tsenko> hello ... i don't have a logo for mplayer .. just a question mark appears ... how can i add a logo ?
[14:06] <wheatthin> But gnome-shell shouldn't start out at 130mb and then climb to 400mb
[14:06] <blackangelpr> wheatthin, which one it is ? lest get sure
[14:06] <wheatthin> blackangelpr, gnome-shell on 14.04.
[14:06] <t_dot_zilla> boo
[14:06] <t_dot_zilla> someone should fix this
[14:07] <SuperLag> t_dot_zilla: get to work, then
[14:07] <t_dot_zilla> lol, i need to turn up logging, i can't see why it crashes
[14:08] <blackangelpr> wheatthin, verify if yours is listed here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver    please
[14:08] <wheatthin> GNOME Shell 3.10.4
[14:08] <wheatthin> blackangelpr, It's clearly working.  fglrxinfo says so.
[14:09] <blackangelpr> wheatthin, .... then if you are sure is listed and no problems try the stable drivers
[14:09] <wheatthin> blackangelpr, I do have stable fglrx drivers installed.
[14:09] <blackangelpr> wheatthin, V-sync disable ?
[14:09] <wheatthin> nope.
[14:09] <blackangelpr> try then
[14:09] <blackangelpr> it happened to me
[14:10] <blackangelpr> on game
[14:10] <wheatthin> That shouldn't be why the memory goes up to 400mb
[14:10] <SuperLag> Any of you had success setting env vars in .desktop files?
[14:10] <blackangelpr> confused....  you said you have problems while gaming and as well on gnome shell?
[14:11] <SuperLag> I'm trying to get Oracle SQL Developer to work, and just using the generic .desktop file, it crashes because of GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID
[14:11] <wheatthin> blackangelpr, no.. I said that gnome-shell goes from 130mb to 400mb and then lags
[14:11] <blackangelpr> wheatthin, sorry then XD my bad
[14:11] <wheatthin> blackangelpr, Gaming is just fine :).. just problem with gnome-shell
[14:11] <SuperLag> I'm trying to unset GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID before I call the script that starts Oracle SQL Developer
[14:12] <Anarchic> hey...i'm having problems with a multiple monitor setup...when making a video/stream full screen it's a gamble as to which screen it goes full screen on...is there a way to control which screen a full screened window goes to?
[14:12] <wheatthin> SuperLag, is this because you require graphical admin access?
[14:13] <SuperLag> wheatthin: There are a lot of things easier to do from the GUI client than there are from a CLI SQL*Plus session, but that's not the Ubuntu part.
[14:13] <wheatthin> SuperLag, have you tried issuing gksu?
[14:14] <t_dot_zilla> the source code works fine
[14:14] <SuperLag> wheatthin: why would that make a difference? (asking, not arguing) Please educate me. :)
[14:14] <wheatthin> SuperLag, gksu prepares the executable to load graphical libraries if needed
[14:15] <SuperLag> wheatthin: the client app is crashing because a now-deprecated env var is set.
[14:15] <SuperLag> wheatthin: from the CLI, if I manually unset GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID and then call the script that starts Oracle SQL Developer, it works fine.
[14:16] <SuperLag> wheatthin: but if I start it from the Launcher, with the associated .desktop file, it assumes that env var is still set, it partially loads.. and then ends up crashing
[14:17] <wheatthin> SuperLag, is there a crash log fo rit?
[14:18] <LucidGuy> Alright, what do you guys think caused this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8259769/
[14:19] <leotr> hi! i want to redirect output of some programs to /dev/tty2 (not login, just redirect err of some processes to second console). What steps do i need to accomplish that?
[14:20] <SuperLag> wheatthin: the "Ubuntu has reported a problem" screen comes up, but I'm not sure if it writes to a log and/or where that gets written
[14:20] <wheatthin> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables
[14:20] <wheatthin> can you paste your .desktop file on pastebinit?
[14:21] <latk> I've installed a binary to a folder, added that folder to my path. However I must have done something wrong, as I get "permission denied" when I try to run the command
[14:21] <bluenemo> hi guys. My /boot partition just grew to 100% used space as of keeping old kernels. I'd like to keep only the 3 most recent kernels after installing a new kernel via apt. what is the best practice way to configure that? I saw some oneliners that could be used in cron; but I found that another of my laptops does that by itself. how can I configure that?
[14:21] <latk> What can I do to fix this /
[14:21] <SuperLag> wheatthin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8260094/
[14:21] <cfhowlett> bluenemo, sudo apt-get autoremove          will remove all but the most recent 2
[14:22] <bluenemo> cfhowlett, thank you
[14:22] <cfhowlett> bluenemo, happy2help
[14:22] <bluenemo> what would be a good way to make ubuntu do that on a regular basis? is there a package that does that?
[14:22] <cfhowlett> bluenemo, not that I know and not that I would use.  just get in the habit of monthly spring cleaning
[14:22] <Ampelbein> latk: Did you add the executable bit to the file as well? (chmod u+x $FILE)
[14:23] <cfhowlett> bluenemo, or you could make it a cron job
[14:24] <bluenemo> I noticed that my other laptop does that by himself. I was wondering how that might be configured, as I did not find a cron job for that.
[14:24] <bluenemo> could that have sth to do with automatic security upgrades? as in aptitude safe-upgrade or so?
[14:24] <cfhowlett> bluenemo, ubuntu does not delete old kernels automatically.
[14:24] <Valarkin_> trying to move /home using this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving . /home was originally on /dev/sda3
[14:25] <Valarkin_> I have changed the fstab to reflect it and removed the line mapping /sda3 to /home
[14:26] <bluenemo> ah ok. thanks again for the help :)
[14:26] <Valarkin_> rebooted and try to repart sda3 and it reports "/dev/sda3 have been written, but we have
[14:26] <Valarkin_> been unable to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use.  As a result, the
[14:26] <Valarkin_> old partition(s) will remain in use.  You should reboot now before making further changes."
[14:26] <Valarkin_> even after a reboot. What have I borked?
[14:27] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: Can you paste the output of "mount" and the contents of /etc/fstab to paste.ubuntu.com and link it here?
[14:28] <Valarkin_> indeed.
[14:29] <Valarkin_> Ampelbein: http://pastebin.com/7UqCQuh9
[14:30] <Valarkin_> oh oops, one sec
[14:30] <wheatthin> Valarkin_, you might have a different UUID generated in fstab.. might compare blkid to /etc/fstab entries
[14:30] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: Well, that shows /dev/sda3 still mounted as /home
[14:30] <SuperLag> wheatthin: came up with a workaround. Created a shell script in /usr/local/bin that does "unset GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID" then calls the binary for sqldeveloper. Then I call that script in the Exec= line of the .desktop file
[14:30] <Valarkin_> yeah, realised It was the wrong copy -updating it now
[14:31] <Valarkin_> Ampelbein: its updated to the current fstab
[14:31] <wheatthin> SuperLag, very nice.. I was doing reading on manipulating that desktop file.. I guess it needed to generate a new gnome desktop session ID
[14:32] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: The "mount" command still shows /dev/sda3 mounted as /home
[14:32] <wheatthin> Ampelbein, after he reboots, it should sort itself if the entries are corrected
[14:33] <Valarkin_> Ae0aSqj3 new bin, musta beena cache thing
[14:33] <Valarkin_> http://pastebin.com/Ae0aSqj3
[14:33] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: That is missing the output of "mount".  What software are you using to repartition?
[14:37] <pgnome> wheatthin, where's that?
[14:38] <wheatthin> in the ~/.libreoffice location
[14:38] <wheatthin> lol
[14:38] <wheatthin> it's hidden in your home folder
[14:38] <pgnome> well, it's not there
[14:38] <Valarkin_> I used gpart
[14:39] <blackangelpr> pgnome, left ctrl +h   to see hidden files
[14:39] <pgnome> no, I can see hidden files... there's other ones there
[14:39] <pgnome> but, no .libreoffice
[14:40] <pgnome> this is ****
[14:40] <Valarkin_> god damn it
[14:40] <Valarkin_> noo I didnt I used parted
[14:40] <pgnome> ubuntu sucks
[14:40] <ddv> pebcak ^
[14:40] <SonikkuAmerica> !language
[14:40] <k1l> pgnome: no need for instulting/swearing
[14:40] <Valarkin_> thats not swearing.
[14:40] <blackangelpr> pgnome, its on home .config file
[14:40] <pgnome> I searched it... there's no such file or folder
[14:40] <Valarkin_> i could give you an example of a blue streak for comparison if you'd like ;)
[14:41] <SuperLag> Valarkin_: Yes. Yes, it is. And it's offensive to some people. Particularly religious people.
[14:41] <blackangelpr> yes it is i am looking at it
[14:41] <blackangelpr> go to home then click on .config
[14:41] <somsip> pgnome: ~/.config/libreoffice
[14:41] <blackangelpr> there you will see it ;)
[14:41] <Valarkin_> And rteligious people are offensive to me so it balances.
[14:41] <cfhowlett> pgnome, no profanity.   stop now.
[14:41] <pgnome> I didn't use any profanity
[14:41] <cfhowlett> Valarkin_, read the guidelines.  profanity is not permitted in this channel - nothing to do with religion.
[14:41] <Valarkin_> I think he meant me ;)
[14:41] <Valarkin_> Noted.
[14:42] <pgnome> blackangelpr, it's not there.... the closest is .local
[14:42] <k1l> pgnome: .config/libreoffice
[14:43] <blackangelpr> if you still cant find it then go to the software center and reinstalled again i guess :(
[14:43] <pgnome> delete the libreoffice folder?
[14:43] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: can you try again with parted and pastebin the complete output? Or use gparted and use the "Save Details" button.
[14:43] <pgnome> there's one folder in that one named '4'
[14:44] <k1l> pgnome: rename the libreoffice folder, so you could get that back if needed.
[14:44] <cfhowlett> pgnome, delete the /libreoffice           folder and it will reset to defaults
[14:44] <Valarkin_> Sure thing Ampelbein one sec
[14:45] <killer> I can't change login manager back to lightdm , I tried dpkg-reconfigure lightdm and selected lightdm from there.
[14:45] <pgnome> nothing changed
[14:46] <killer> No
[14:46] <pgnome> I better leave before I swear for real
[14:46] <Valarkin_> Ampelbein: http://pastebin.com/FuMxDGKZ
[14:46] <pgnome> I'm that angry
[14:47] <SonikkuAmerica> killer: Did you reboot?
[14:47] <killer> SonikkuAmerica: Yes
[14:47] <Valarkin_> plenty of research out there that show people who swear are better adjusted and generally happier than those who do not.
[14:48] <blackangelpr> (^_^) hahaha
[14:50] <hoijui> i resized my boot partition in gparted from a live cd, and then reinstalled grub using chroot
[14:51] <hoijui> now when booting, i get to an initramfs prompt, without any error message
[14:51] <hoijui> where coudl i find an error message?
[14:51] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: Maybe I'm completely off now, but as far as I remember, you are supposed to start parted with a block device as argument, i.e. /dev/sda, not directly the partition.
[14:52] <Valarkin_> oh heck, i forgot to select the device, didn't i
[14:52] <faqih_dan_kucing> ._.
[14:52] <faqih_dan_kucing> hello ._.
[14:52] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: yes, you operate directly on the sda3, not on the device itself.
[14:52] <Valarkin_> thanks Ampel  :D
[14:53] <wheatthin> hoijui, you need to initialize initramfs
[14:54] <hoijui> wheatthin, ok... can you explain? ;-)
[14:54] <wheatthin> hoijui, 'update-initramfs -c'
[14:54] <hoijui> ah..
[14:54] <hoijui> ah.. ok so.. back to the live cd ..
[14:55] <hoijui> that line was not in the instructions i saw
[14:55] <wheatthin> hoijui, you are chrooting right?
[14:55] <hoijui> it jsut contianed grub install
[14:55] <hoijui> yes.. well i was before, before trying to reboot
[14:55] <wheatthin> yes, chroot back into it when updating
[14:55] <Valarkin_> Ampelbein: same output when started with parted /dev/sda3
[14:55] <hoijui> ook
[14:55] <hoijui> thanks! :-)
[14:56] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: You have to start it with /dev/sda
[14:56] <Valarkin_> oh, no way to just do that partition?
[14:57] <garrettr> Hi all, I'm having issues with Ubuntu 12.04.5 Server. After running through the normal install process, I run apt-get update and get a number of "Hash Sum Mismatch" errors
[14:57] <garrettr> I then have difficulty installing some essential packages, for example build-essential
[14:58] <wheatthin> garrettr, are you using any ppa's with this newly installed os?
[14:58] <Ampelbein> Valarkin_: Maybe we have to start from the beginning: What do you want to do exactly?
[14:59] <wheatthin> garrettr, I'd also check and see if the dvd you installed from wasn't scratched or corrupted
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> garrettr: wget https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/fixpackage; chmod +x ./fixpackage; sudo ./fixpackage
[15:00] <cfhowlett> !md5sum | garrettr, 1. verify the ISO          2. verify your usb
[15:01] <garrettr> ubottu: i verified the sha256 hash
[15:01] <wheatthin> cfhowlett, thanks :)
[15:02] <cfhowlett> wheatthin, ?  for ...                happy2help
[15:02] <wheatthin> going a step further and giving him links :)
[15:02] <cfhowlett> wheatthin, it's all in the wrist, amigo.  :0
[15:04] <wheatthin> btw ActionParsnip I wouldn't ever advise someone downloading a link from an unknown dropbox. even if it's your own.
[15:04] <pbx> i was gonna say.
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: it is my own
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: its the commands from the synaptic fix broken packages, in a script
[15:05] <wheatthin> ActionParsnip, right, so use pastebinit and paste the script..
[15:05]  * cfhowlett is inclined to agree
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: if it is my own, how can it be simulataneously "unknown" it makes no sense
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: how is using a pastebin different?
[15:06] <wheatthin> cause they can review and aren't executing something that could be malicious
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8260414/
[15:06] <wheatthin> thank you :)
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: there you go
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: technically I could tweaked the script before pasting it..............
[15:07] <wheatthin> **high fives**
[15:08] <wheatthin> yes, but they can get that chance to review it, and question if it's right or not
[15:08] <wheatthin> :)
[15:10] <marsje_> I'm trying to mount a windows share. It works when I do: sudo mount -t cifs //<IP_ADDRESS>/share /mnt/share -o blabla
[15:10] <marsje_> but when I try to do the same from /etc/fstab I get permissions denied
[15:11] <marsje_> I'm referring to a credentials file from the options
[15:11] <eeee> add your uid to it
[15:11] <marsje_> I use uid=root now
[15:11] <wheatthin> ahh you can't mount to root without root privs
[15:11] <eeee> i mean in the fstab mount options use uid=<youruid>
[15:11] <wheatthin> can you?
[15:12] <eeee> wheatthin: i think it's mounting as root
[15:12] <eeee> ( in fstab )
[15:12] <AviramK> Hello, I did something stupid and I'm not quite sure how to fix it.
[15:12] <marsje_> eeee: yes
[15:13] <AviramK> I've upgradedd my kernel while having ATI Driver and now Xserver fails to start
[15:13] <AviramK> I wonder how can I remove the driver?
[15:13] <AviramK> or upgrade it, using terminal.
[15:13] <marsje_> wheatthin: what if I type sudo?
[15:13] <wheatthin> AviramK, in the console    sudo aticonfig --initial all
[15:13] <AviramK> It will fix even tho it's new kernel?
[15:13] <wheatthin> marsje_, sudo is a bash command, it won't work.
[15:14] <wheatthin> AviramK, and did you install the ati driver from repo or the site?
[15:14] <eeee> marsje_: in the fstab entry, add uid=<youruid>
[15:14] <AviramK> wheatthin: Site.
[15:14] <marsje_> wheatthin: I have a windows login/password to login to the share and I want th share to be available to all users of the linux box... how do I do it then?
[15:14] <AviramK> --initial all doesn't work btw.
[15:14] <wheatthin> AviramK, that's the problem
[15:14] <AviramK> wheatthin: inital does tho.. well what do I do then?
[15:14] <AviramK> (Repositories versions are pretty much out of date most of the time..)
[15:15] <wheatthin> marsje_, set it to the "users" group
[15:16] <marsje_> wheatthin: it does mount when I do sudo mount -a, despite the permission denied error
[15:16] <wheatthin> marsje_, also setting the pre-mounted location for the permissions too
[15:16] <miceiken> This might be an unpopular question, but are there any decent, free, webpanels out there for Ubuntu server administration? That supports popular/large services etc.
[15:16] <marsje_> wheatthin: what do you mean with that last bit?
[15:16] <wheatthin> marsje_, meaning before the mount-point is mounted, make sure the folder permission correlate
[15:16] <AviramK> wheatthin: Any idea?
[15:17] <wheatthin> AviramK, Yup.. first off.. don't install drivers that are not included from our repos.. secondly, you have to run in uninstall option in the ati installer
[15:17] <wheatthin> AviramK, then use our repo's and install fglrx
[15:18] <wheatthin> in=an*
[15:18] <AviramK> But games don't run well if I use repository's driver.,
[15:18] <AviramK> +
[15:18] <wheatthin> AviramK, they run just fine.
[15:19] <wheatthin> AviramK, You just have initialize the fglrx driver by having it generate an xorg file to refer for dkms
[15:19] <asarch> How do I efectively remove old kernels?
[15:19] <wheatthin> AviramK, but first you gotta uninstall that stuff from the amd site.
[15:19] <AviramK> How do I do that wheatthin ? and sudo apt-get install fglrx should work for setting it up (repository driver)
[15:20] <somsip> asarch: http://markmcb.com/2013/02/04/cleanup-unused-linux-kernels-in-ubuntu/
[15:20] <wheatthin> AviramK, well I'm thinking the uninstaller should come with the installer. So look up the amd/ati installer options
[15:20] <AviramK> I asked about the initializing fglrx driver tbh
[15:20] <AviramK> as aticonfig uninstall works it seems
[15:21] <wheatthin> AviramK, that only uninstalls the config. it doens't uninstall the driver.
[15:21] <wheatthin> well it might.
[15:21] <AviramK> It says "Uninstall fglrx driver complete"
[15:21] <AviramK> I think it means it uninstalled the driver, or atleast I hope so D:
[15:21] <patrasygma> CAn we speak in this channel?
[15:21] <wheatthin> k.. after reboot, go and install the other driver from the repo
[15:21] <patrasygma> Ah yes
[15:22] <patrasygma> Hi
[15:22] <AviramK> GUI should load now?
[15:23] <patrasygma> I know this is not the place to ask this and I hope I won't be kicked as I am here for ubuntu support but is there any room that can help generate internet traffic?
[15:23] <AviramK> Yay gui loads
[15:23] <wheatthin> AviramK, yes, it'll revert to radeon drivers.. then once you install fglrx and initialize the xorg driver, reboot and it'll be loaded
[15:23] <AviramK> sudo apt-get install fglrx, right?
[15:23] <wheatthin> yup
[15:24] <k1l> patrasygma: just load the ubuntu torrents and keep seeding them
[15:25] <Sam6790> bonjour à tous
[15:26] <lipizzan> is it possible to install ubuntu on a macbook2,1? I can't get the mac to boot from CD or USBflash
[15:26] <veryhappy> hey guys, i've got 2 questions: 1st about compiz (how can i disable the mouse wheel function for the desktop cube? i don't want to change the desktop when i scroll down or up when i hover the kde bar) and 2nd) i don't know if that question is way too general in order to ask it here but i'll do that anyway: how can i start with a linux minimal system that has not even apt-get or some package...
[15:26] <veryhappy> ...manager or make or gcc, how do i get started then? thank you?

[15:33] <freakie> sudo make sandwich

[15:34] <rainbowwarrior> hello , how can i fix a broken Ubuntu 14.4.1 installation please ?
[15:35] <RockyRoad> hello, I would need help try to recover my ext4 partitions, corrupted by Win8 into "Microsoft basic data" (fdisk)
[15:35] <pavelz> my box is not booting after upgrade to 14.04 at the terminal I get "disk filter writes are not supported" and machine freezes if i try to rescue boot i get message "Skipping mounting ext4  since Plymouth is not available"

[15:35] <pbx> patrasygma, create a very useful resource relevant to the users of a busy channel, participate there for a while so you are not a stranger, then share the link.  that's my recipe.
[15:35] <pavelz> I am very confused and googling yeilds a bunch of old and somewhat irrelevant articles about automount and floppy drives
[15:36] <pavelz> I have upgraded 3 systems today and only *this one* is *not booting*
[15:36] <patrasygma> or maybe we should start a room where we all generate traffic for each other....
[15:36] <alfonso> hola
[15:40] <igcek> hello... i would need a live usb linux with the possibility of adding new programs while it's running
[15:40] <igcek> and that programs persist after reboot... what is the best way of doing that?
[15:41] <stern> Hello, need help with C programming ?
[15:42] <somsip> stern: try the ##c channel
[15:43] <stern> Thank you somsip
[15:43] <farbod> hi,im in linux and i want a good html editor what is your sugesstion?
[15:44] <killer> farbod: geany ?
[15:44] <patrasygma> netbeans is awesome
[15:44] <patrasygma> html5 project in netbeans
[15:44] <farbod> killer:another thing i have geany and i dont like it
[15:45] <farbod> patrasygma:netbeans need Oracle or Java?
[15:45] <patrasygma> Java but openjdk can do it
[15:45] <somsip> farbod: it's okay with openjdk
[15:46] <farbod> how can i download it? (whith every things)
[15:49] <farbod> any body?!?
[15:49] <farbod> how can i download and install it? (whith every things)
[15:49] <killer> netbeans or openjdk?
[15:49] <khionu> can someone PM me about an issue with making a bash script with a SED command in it. My whole script is only 3 lines of actual code, so it should be a quick fix
[15:50] <somsip> !pm | khionu
[15:51] <Mathieu_> After upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04, i can't mount a cifs share any longer
[15:51] <farbod> killer:both of them :)
[15:51] <Mathieu_> anybody that might know anything about that?
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: did the script work?
[15:53] <khionu> ok, well my script is running, however it can't load the variables that are basically verbatim from the tutorials I've read, then it's saying that the comma I'm using is unexpected, yet, again, it's verbatim from the tutorials I've read.
[15:53] <khionu> 3 lines of code, each gets it's own error
[15:53] <somsip> !paste | khionu (paste the script)
[15:55] <pkhades> hello
[15:56] <killer> farbod: search for them in software center
[15:56] <killer> It has both
[15:56] <khionu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8260736/
[15:56] <farbod> killer:thank you very much
[15:56] <patrasygma> but i do not suggest the netbeans in the sofware center
[15:56] <killer> farbod: or sudo apt-get install netbeans
[15:56] <khionu> I'll get the screenshot for the errors in a sec
[15:56] <patrasygma> better download it from netbeans site
[15:56] <killer> farbod: write ths command in terminal
[15:56] <somsip> khionu: variables in bash are declared without $, eg: WORLD=$1
[15:57] <somsip> khionu: when referenced, you use the $.
[15:57] <SchrodingersScat> and don't forget the quotes!
[15:57] <khionu> ahhh. ok. I'm more familiar with Perl, so xD
[15:58] <patrasygma> https://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html
[15:58] <yeats> khionu: perl & bash are similar enough to be annoying to switch between for sure ;-)
[15:59] <farbod> patrasygma: axept Netbeans other say i shuld be install  openjdk
[15:59] <khionu> thanks all!! *throws confetti*
[15:59] <khionu> Imma test it now
[15:59] <somsip> khionu: np. afk now, so ask someone else if you get stuck
[15:59] <patrasygma> farbod, yes install openjdk then install netbeans
[15:59] <khionu> somsip: ok, thank you very much :)
[16:00] <rainbowwarrior> hello , I am running Ubuntu 14.4.1 and I have java 7 67 installed , yet when i use it on a certain java chat i get the java icon but i can not do anything with it, also xchat does not work either , it seems only certain programs work , anyone got any idea how to fix this please ?
[16:00] <farbod> patrasygma:can i install it from ubuntu software manager?
[16:01] <patrasygma> use killer's way for openjdk: sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre openjdk-7-jdk
[16:02] <patrasygma> farbod, but for netbeans download the one that suits your needs at the link above and let me know
[16:02] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: hey, would I need to remove the spaces between the variables and their content?
[16:02] <zx> how many people are there?
[16:03] <tonyt> is there a fix for screen tearing?
[16:03] <SchrodingersScat> khionu: believe so, no space between = and the value., so world=$1  ; line="level-name=${world}"
[16:04] <SchrodingersScat> khionu: for ints you can : let num=0
[16:04] <farbod> patrasygma: ok thank you
[16:04] <patrasygma> np, are you done with openjdk?
[16:05] <farbod> patrasygma: yes,thank you
[16:05] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: thank you :) I'm only working with strings right now, as the scripts I'm making are all configuration adjusters for people who see a black box and freak out xD
[16:05] <patrasygma> farbod, have you downloaded the netbeans that suits your needs?
[16:06] <farbod> patrasygma: yes its downloading with 2 MG speed :) 40 MG left
[16:06] <SchrodingersScat> khionu: you will never stop minecraft users from 'freaking out'
[16:06] <patrasygma> farbod, ok, we will do the install together when you are ready
[16:07] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: but I can limit the number of times I'm woken up at 3 am xDD
[16:07] <farbod> patrasygma:thank you very much :)
[16:08] <patrasygma> farbod, no problem, i don't want you to run away from ubuntu because small thing like that. Linux is awesome!!!
[16:08] <arif-ali> ls
[16:08] <farbod> Linux is awesome!!! :)
[16:10] <farbod> 20 MG left
[16:11] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: ahha! Here's the other error I got "sed: -e expression #1, char 4: unexpected `,' ". Here's the new sed line I used, but it's still the same error "sed -e "30,s/*/${line}/" [file]"
[16:12] <SchrodingersScat> khionu: I don't understand the 30, there, but I'm also not a sed/regex master.
[16:12] <khionu> it's just the line number. the only difference from that and the tutorials is that the tutorials only had a single digit line number.
[16:13] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: forgot to point the reply to you
[16:16] <khionu> Anyone else have SED experience?
[16:16] <c0mrad3> can any one help me to make my pendrive bootable
[16:16] <patrasygma> sed is complicated because of regex on command line, it's a process of try and fail until success
[16:17] <SchrodingersScat> khionu: that's outside of my experience, I googled me a http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html#uh-26 though, looks like you might want something like sed -e '30 s/*/${line}/'  ; although I did not test that for syntax.. and you might need " "'s to expand the variable
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> c0mrad3: with an Ubuntu ISO?
[16:17] <adam23> Hi
[16:18] <adam23> Any support? I have problem with my OS.
[16:18] <adam23> *problems
[16:19] <patrasygma> farbod, is the download complete?
[16:19] <SchrodingersScat> adam23: go ahead and state your problem, along with whatever you tried to solve it, and what happened.
[16:20] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: I saw that tutorial, but newer ones said "comma not space"..... well, I think newer. I'll check the page data
[16:20] <adam23> I asked my question in UbuntuAsk. but no one answered it. this is my question: http://askubuntu.com/questions/520383/stange-problems-in-ubuntu
[16:22] <SchrodingersScat> khionu: there's also a channel ##sed which seems to be the unofficial hangout of SEDers
[16:22] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: I'll check it out.. thanks
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> adam23: what is the output of:   cat /etc/issue
[16:23] <adam23> Ubuntu 14.04 LTS \n \l
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> adam23: does nautilus eventually load?
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> adam23: if you use a different theme, is it ok?
[16:26] <adam23> It is not nautilus. It just was an example. The problem is the OS. I have many problems. everything is slow. for example when I want to open a text file It takes almost 30 seconds.
[16:27] <adam23> no. original theme.
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> adam23: is it the same as the guest session?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> adam23: is this a clean install?
[16:27] <adam23> what is guest session?
[16:28] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: they seem to not be the chattiest bunch..... *breaks facetious scale*..... but their tutorial in their motd links back to that same link, so I'll give it a go
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> adam23: you select it on the login page.
[16:28] <adam23> No. It is normal. My own account.
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> adam23: your own account is normal?
[16:29] <adam23> I mean, not guest.
[16:30] <adam23> It is like XP after a few months now!
[16:31] <adam23> My accounts type is "administrator"
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> adam23: there is no "administrator type"
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> adam23: you may be in the sudo group which allows you to run commands using sudo, but thats it
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> adam23: log off, then log in to the system as guest. Is it the same
[16:32] <adam23> I don't know. I read it from "user accounts"
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> adam23: you will then know if the issue is OS or your profile settings
[16:33] <Mathieu_> anybody can help with mounting cifs share on 14.04?
[16:33] <Mathieu_> not working since the upgrade from 12.04
[16:35] <khionu> SchrodingersScat: They answered it. Also, the wildcard is supposed to be ".*".... anyways, it is working now ^_^
[16:35] <adam23> Ok. Thanks so much.  I want to switch now. I'll be back.

[16:42] <VipT> Hi Everyone,  can anyone assist me with RAID configuration with 14.04 LTS?
[16:42] <ikonia> VipT: whats the issue ?
[16:42] <yeats> VipT: software RAID?
[16:44] <VipT> Hardware raid.  I have a RAID5 setup between two hard drives.  This was setup prior to my ubuntu install.  Windows picks up the raid no problem and I did a dual boot install for ubuntu.  Ubuntu sees the two physical drives under the Disk utility but not the RAID array.  How can I get his array mounted without loosing data?

[16:45] <jeffreylevesque> i have an apache2 webserver that serves a page with an image, 'loader.png'.  I removed the image, and saved another by the same name.  The webpage displays the old image, and not the new.  It doesn't have anything to do github, because i cleared the git cache, and the old image still displays
[16:45] <jeffreylevesque> i'm using ubuntu server 14.04
[16:45] <ikonia> jeffreylevesque: browser cache
[16:46] <ikonia> jeffreylevesque: you have to specify no caching options if you don't want the browser/proxy to cache pages
[16:46] <SNAFUdowser> Hey, I'm running an Ubuntu 12 variant, and my wired ethernet is not being detected.  I'm using my college ethernet and it works on my laptop, but not on my desktop.  How can I fix this?   I just deleted my fstab and its backup. Any idea to how to regenerate it from the current mount points?
[16:48] <ikonia> d0x: no need for that langauge
[16:48] <ikonia> d0x: it's not welcome in this channel
[16:49] <d0x> Sorry for the sh*t :)
[16:49] <ikonia> d0x: type "mount" and look at what's mounted, use that to rebuild the fstab
[16:49] <ikonia> d0x: please don't star it out - just don't use it
[16:49]  * d0x shame
[16:49] <ikonia> d0x: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[16:49] <ikonia> d0x: there is the format, use the output of the command "mount" to rebuild it
[16:50] <ikonia> d0x: should take 5 minutes.
[16:50]  * Nach0z stars d0x out
[16:50] <licnep_> anyone knows what will happen if i choose "install alongside windows" on a laptop which already has 4 primary partitions? ( http://i.imgur.com/cFaCfXR.png )

[16:51] <Hoyt1> Hi where can I find outdated packages?
[16:51] <Hoyt1> I need to find deb package of linux-image-2.6.38-8-virtual
[16:52] <OerHeks> c0mrad3, is this a special usb device, like u3? i found this bug anyway https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/1294877
[16:53] <BluesKaj> licnep_, recommend you use manual partitioning in your case. motre control over where to install the OS
[16:53] <Raymond> where to learning JavaScript?
[16:53] <ikonia> Raymond: a book ? the web ? - not this channel though
[16:53] <Raymond> ikonia: thank you xD
[16:53] <Raymond> bye
[16:53] <OerHeks> Hoyt1, that is old, natty > http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v<IP_ADDRESS>-natty/
[16:54] <Hoyt1> OerHeks: ppa, nice
[16:55] <OerHeks> Hoyt1, hold on, 32 bit? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/i386/linux-image-2.6.38-8-virtual/2.6.38-8.40
[16:55] <ikonia> that is not the virtual kernel build
[16:55] <ikonia> that is the mainline kernel build without any of the ubuntu patches/configuration
[16:56] <OerHeks> ikonia, i noticed, little late i know ..
[16:57] <licnep_> BluesKaj: ok thanks, that's what i usually do, it's just that i'm new to the EFI stuff, so didnt want to mess it up.. but apparently it's fine if you point /boot/efi to the existing efi partition..
[16:57] <Hoyt1> Nope, x86_64
[16:57] <SNAFUdowser> ikonia: Elementary OS.... I would think that it's using basically the same network backend as idk anything else.  How should I try to debug?  Sorry for late response, btw.
[16:58] <OerHeks> Hoyt1, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/amd64/linux-image-2.6.38-8-virtual/2.6.38-8.40

[16:59] <BluesKaj> licnep_, yeah so i've heard, but I'm not familiar with saving a windows 8 install on uefi , I just dumped it, installed W7 and linux after wiping the drive and then used the legacy mode in the uefi/bios
[17:01] <yeats> VipT: you may have to install raid packages - 'dm-raid' is the right package I think
[17:01] <yeats> !info dm-raid
[17:01] <yeats> er..
[17:01] <MortezaE> Hi. How i can switch to secondary input language by holding some key down (like that beautiful days of gnome...)
[17:01] <OerHeks> dmraid
[17:01] <yeats> VipT: dmraid, sorry
[17:02] <yeats> VipT: it's not installed by default on desktop Ubuntu (at least last time I checked)
[17:02] <VipT> yeats: I am checking into that now.  I noticed I am doing a software raid, not hardware
[17:02] <eeee> MortezaE: super+space , i think, never tried it before but it's in the shortcuts
[17:02] <yeats> VipT: not sure how shared storage between windows/ubuntu would work with software raid
[17:03] <chrisss123456> hey guys, would you suggest installing an antivirus on an ubuntu laptop, if so why and which one?
[17:03] <VipT> yeats: I already have dmraid installed.  let's see if I can get this to work.
[17:04] <yeats> !av | chrisss123456
[17:04] <chrisss123456> yeats: oops, sorry. i suppose this is so frequently asked :/ thanks!
[17:05] <yeats> chrisss123456: no problem!  if you want virus protection anyway, look into ClamAV
[17:05] <yeats> !info clamav | chrisss123456
[17:05] <MortezaE> eeee : No, it does'nt work
[17:05] <chrisss123456> yeats: i’ve heard about clamav, decided to ask here to see if people knew. i guess that answers that! haha. thanks again :)
[17:14] <pavelz> Hi Anyone had experience with RAID0 and Ubuntu 12 -> 14 upgrade ? I am having issue that drive mounts fine but in the bootup process it says it has failed to mount. while in dmesg it shows that drive has mounted properly. I get prompted to press S to continue and everything works just fine. What kind of problem this may be? in dmesg I have this: EXT4-fs: (md2) mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts:(null)
[17:16] <pavelz> I have spent whole day an doing google browsing but did not come up with anything specific, people having other issues with RAID0
[17:18] <pavelz> wonder if it could be some sort or race condition?
[17:20] <chrisss123456> hey guys, i’m trying to install fprint, and i’ve followed instructions, but i don’t see the option to use fingerprint login after logging in and out… tohughts?

[17:33] <sagredo> hello #ubuntu , after updating to 14.04 I have noticed ubuntu closing my programs when I leave the computer idling
[17:34] <sagredo> this is very undesireable for me
[17:34] <JimmyNeutron> System slowed to a crawl when I ran my python script looking for prime numbers from 1,000,000 to 1,000,000,000
[17:34] <JimmyNeutron> lol
[17:34] <sagredo> what do I need to edit to stop this new 'feature'
[17:34] <N0xc0n> Buggy Script
[17:35] <JimmyNeutron> works fine to 1000.  I need to optimize it for multithread I guess
[17:36] <yaowenrui> how to install mac on ubuntu
[17:36] <OerHeks> yaowenrui, mac what? theme?
[17:36] <JimmyNeutron> yaowenrui, Mac OS on Ubuntu OS or Ubuntu OS onto a Mac HW?
[17:37] <yaowenrui> install mac just like apt-get install xubuntu
[17:37] <yaowenrui> is there any commander
[17:37] <OerHeks> yaowenrui, mac osx has nothing to do with ubuntu.
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> sagredo: what did you upgrade from?
[17:38] <yaowenrui> so there  not any way?
[17:38] <pbx> yaowenrui, no.  OS X is an operating system, not an application. and it's proprietary, not open source.
[17:38] <N0xc0n> mac is UNIX not LINUX
[17:38] <JimmyNeutron> yaowenrui, if u want a Mac OS running under Ubuntu OS, look into VM
[17:38] <sagredo> ActionParsnip: fresh install mate
