[10:03] <TJ-> Madura: is the PC started right now with the Ubuntu Live ISO and using the "Try Ubuntu" option?
[10:04] <Madura> TJ : No, this is the another laptop
[10:05] <EriC^^> Madura: try booting a live usb
[10:05] <TJ-> Madura: OK, boot the PC with a Live ISO and do "Try Ubuntu" so we can do some diagnostics.
[10:06] <Madura>  Eric : TJ : ok. give me 1 min
[10:06] <linocisco> hi any free cloud where we can install vtiger or any CRM?
[10:06] <TJ-> linocisco: outside your window :)
[10:07] <linocisco> TJ-, i m not using windows. I am with ubuntu. :). Microsoft gives only Windows. Ubuntu gives the whole DAMN house.:)
[10:08] <linocisco> but i am on bad house
[10:08] <pers3us> linocisco: What do you mean free cloud? :)
[10:09] <pers3us> linocisco: t3.micro of ec2 is free for a year. you can try that
[10:09] <TJ-> linocisco: The Window in your house. There is no such thing as "free cloud" - the euphamism 'cloud' means the collection of private networks that make up the 'Internet'
[10:09] <pers3us> :)
[10:09] <Grayfoox> :D
[10:09] <linocisco> perceive, free OS is ubuntu , CentoS etc. I am thinking if we can get free cloud where we can install any server with some duration
[10:09] <TJ-> linocisco: what you want is a hosted service, likely a small virtual machine
[10:09] <pers3us> linocisco: TJ- haha
[10:10] <Madura> Eric : pers2us : TJ : now im with live.
[10:10] <TJ-> No wonder people have problems with software if they don't get the basic terminology correct :D
[10:10] <pers3us> :D
[10:10] <TJ-> Madura: good. does it have a network connection?
[10:11] <linocisco> TJ-, yes. that is true. hosted service is better. if not, I need to build on free server on free cloud
[10:11] <pers3us> linocisco: We are not trying to discourage you. But, rather telling you need a free cloud, tell what you want to do.
[10:11] <linocisco> pers3us, i want to use any free CRM on freecloud so that i can access from anywhere
[10:11] <Madura> TJ : yes. its bit slow connection
[10:12] <TJ-> Madura: good, at least it can send info to a pastebin easily
[10:12] <TJ-> Madura: OK... lets get started. Start a terminal so you have a shell command line
[10:12] <Madura> TJ : already done :)
[10:12] <pers3us> linocisco: Do one thing, go to aws.amazon.com. Register there, and go to ec2. You can start a server called t3.Micro, which will have a label "free tier available".
[10:12] <TJ-> Madura: Do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit"  then do "pastebinit <( sudo lsblk -f )"
[10:13] <pers3us> linocisco: It will be free for a year, and will solve your problem.
[10:13] <linocisco> pers3us, I have no credit card. that is the problem.
[10:13] <pers3us> linocisco: Hmm.. try OpenShift then.
[10:14] <linocisco> pers3us, thanks let me check
[10:15] <Madura> TJ : it says dpkg was inerrupted, you must mannually run sudo dpkg --configure -a to corect the problem
[10:15] <TJ-> Madura: is this for a Live ISO doing "Try Ubuntu" ?!
[10:16] <Madura> TJ : yes, live ISO
[10:16] <pers3us> TJ- Madura , this should not happen
[10:16] <Madura> TJ : with try ubuntu
[10:16] <TJ-> Madura: then I suspect all your issues could be due to a corrupted installer image
[10:17] <TJ-> Madura: reboot it, at the Live ISO boot menu choose the "Check disk" or whatever it is called option
[10:17] <freakyy> id like to install ubuntu but the windows partition tool tells me theres no space to make the partition smaller (maybe cuz theres non-moveable data at the end of the partition?) - is there any way i can use space at the start of the partition?
[10:17] <pers3us> TJ-: If it is corrupted, live iso won't boot either right?
[10:18] <pers3us> isn't there a step for checking md5 before it is written to flash drive?
[10:19] <cfhowlett> pers3us, corrupt .iso 's CAN boot. best practice: md5sum the .iso and the usb
[10:19] <TJ-> pers3us: depends on what the corruption is, might only be a few bits here and there
[10:20] <Madura> TJ : this was came in other machine also. I cant update some softwares because of this problem
[10:20] <pers3us> TJ-: cfhowlett: hmm, that could be the case.
[10:20] <TJ-> freakyy: No, you'll need to do a massive defragmentation operation on the NTFS; you might need specialised tooling for that, such as Executive Software's Diskeeper
[10:20] <Madura> TJ : im using same iso
[10:20] <freakyy> TJ-: omg ... i cant do that
[10:20] <pers3us> TJ-: freakyy: or a free one, try Minitool Partition Editor
[10:20] <TJ-> Madura: then we have to assume - unless you can prove otherwise - the ISO image is corrupt
[10:21] <Madura> TJ : I have downloaded it from ubuntu site.
[10:21] <lotuspsychje> freakyy: or make your life real easy and install ubuntu single :p
[10:21] <pers3us> freakyy: It isn't that complicated. but it will take time. use that tool, it will defragment/resize the block.
[10:21] <TJ-> pers3us: if the NTFS has unmovable blocks, and the MS Windows own Disk Management tool can't move it, it'll need an offline defrag
[10:21] <freakyy> ok im thinking about removing windows from my laptop ...
[10:21] <lotuspsychje> !yay | freakyy
[10:22] <pers3us> TJ-: Never encountered it :) It worked for me whenever I tried to resize, even if there was defragmentation
[10:22] <lotuspsychje> freakyy: you can mess with other Oses from ubuntu/virtualbox afterwards
[10:22] <nitish> how can I update php of lamp?
[10:22] <cfhowlett> Madura, it takes about 1 minute to md5sum the .iso ... don't talk about doing it, DO IT.
[10:22] <freakyy> i will make the recover CDs for my laptop now
[10:22] <pers3us> nitish: You know, first thing you should do is google up a bit :)
[10:22] <freakyy> i hope it works
[10:22] <freakyy> oh wait i cant
[10:23] <freakyy> the tool doesnt burn
[10:23] <freakyy> but i have recovery drives
[10:23] <Madura> TJ- : ok
[10:23] <pers3us> freakyy: screw windows, who wants recovery :D
[10:23] <freakyy> can i ever boot from these recovery drives and reinstall windows?
[10:23] <cfhowlett> freakyy, ask ##windows about windows issues
[10:23] <freakyy> ok
[10:24] <nitish> pers3us: but few people present there can explain better and faster than google.
[10:24] <Madura> TJ- : does ubuntu has md5 sum checker ? or have to do it online site ?
[10:24] <cfhowlett> !md5sum | Madura,
[10:25] <pers3us> nitish: You will learn more if you read more. :)  What php version is currently present on your system? and which one you want to upgrade?
[10:26] <nitish> pers3us: currently installed 5.5.9. i want 5.6.*
[10:26] <lotuspsychje> nitish: its reccomended you use package versions for your specific ubuntu version
[10:26] <nitish> lotuspsychje: didn't get it.
[10:26] <futurama140> does anyone have any idea how i can mount a windows game ISO in trusty so i can install the game through wine? ive tried gisomount and it wont work, and i cant even figure out how to  "unpack the source and create a build directory" for cdemu. I'm moderately computer literate but have very little knowledge of linux distros and programming
[10:27] <pers3us> nitish: check this out. http://askubuntu.com/questions/498175/how-to-downgrade-php-from-5-5-9-to-5-4-in-ubuntu-14-04-installed-with-lamp
[10:27] <freakyy> oh yea i know now - using the assist button ... ok
[10:27] <freakyy> bbl ... hopefully with ubuntu then
[10:27] <nitish> pers3us: I don't need to downgrade. I need to upgrade php in lamp.
[10:28] <lotuspsychje> !latest | nitish
[10:28] <Madura> ubonttu : 1b305d585b1918f297164add46784116  ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso
[10:29] <pers3us> nitish: sorry! my bad :D see if there is a ppa around for 5.6 and use it, although it is not always a good idea as lotuspsychje mentioned.
[10:29] <cfhowlett> Madura, no need to post that here.  YOU check that it matches.
[10:29] <nitish> pers3us: ok I've dropped my idea of update php.
[10:30] <TJ-> Madura: look at the Ubuntu ISO download pages, they have the hashes displayed there
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> nitish: if you like newer php, you can try out latest ubuntu
[10:31] <nitish> lotuspsychje: I am using 14.04 lts and waiting for 16.04 lts.
[10:31] <lotuspsychje> nitish: xenial uses 5.6.14 atm, but still in daily build
[10:32] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, if your hardware can handle it: ubuntu 14.04 + virtualbox + ubuntu 15.10 in a box + shine new PHP
[10:32] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: yeah nice idea +1
[10:32] <pers3us> cfhowlett: or use a contaier
[10:33] <nitish> cfhowlett: don't like to do that

[10:38] <pwca> hi, I keep losing my IRC connection and I suspect it may have something to do with my shitty wireless card. how can I confirm my suspicion?
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: better install a game the normal way with playonlinux
[10:38] <cfhowlett> Madura, excellent.  now verify the USB.  use the "verify cdrom" instructions
[10:38] <Madura> cfhowlett : TJ : Eric : md5 is correct for my download version
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: try unpack the iso, burn to a cd/dvd and install with playonlinux?
[10:39] <lotuspsychje> !info playonlinux | futurama140
[10:39] <pers3us> futurama140: Loop mount? sudo mount -o loop path/to/iso/file/YOUR_ISO_FILE.ISO /media/iso
[10:39] <Madura> cfhowlett : there is no cdrom, I have only usb port.
[10:39] <pers3us> Madura: same thing, just boot using flash drive, and there will be option to verify
[10:39] <cfhowlett> Madura, verify the USB
[10:39] <futurama140> lotuspsychje: i am unable never heard of it, but i am unable to burn disks
[10:40] <lotuspsychje> !burn | futurama140
[10:40] <Madura> cfhowlett : im on try ubutu with flash drive
[10:40] <futurama140> thank you pers3us, perhaps that will work.
[10:41] <cfhowlett> Madura, as pers3us suggested; reboot, hit enter and see the advanced grub options for "verify"
[10:41] <OnTheRocks> hi
[10:41] <futurama140> im used to daemontools in windows, but i have vowed not to touch any windoze distro again
[10:41] <OnTheRocks> how can i monitor cpu temp in nagios in a server via snmp?
[10:41] <cfhowlett> OnTheRocks, ask #ubuntu-server
[10:42] <pers3us> futurama140: I am not aware of any daemontool for Ubuntu :) but loop mount works for me
[10:43] <pers3us> OnTheRocks: You just have to modify the daemon a bit right? I used it long time back.
[10:44] <OnTheRocks> what?
[10:45] <lotuspsychje> OnTheRocks: the #ubuntu-server might help you better
[10:45] <pers3us> OnTheRocks: yes please ask this on #ubuntu-server
[10:46] <pers3us> OnTheRocks: although, check in nagios.conf, and see if there is a place to add more commands.
[10:46] <pers3us> or rather commands.cfg actually
[10:46] <OnTheRocks> ok thanks
[10:47] <pers3us> check the block define command {}

[11:21] <momomo> is it safe to update from 14 to 15  ?
[11:21] <lotuspsychje> momomo: better not upgrade an LTS to non-lts
[11:22] <lotuspsychje> momomo: do you need long time support or not?
[11:22] <momomo> not really, i just need something that is stable and working
[11:22] <momomo> 14 is buggy
[11:22] <lotuspsychje> momomo: define buggy
[11:22] <momomo> it contains bugs
[11:23] <momomo> and I was hoping some of the issues is going to be resolved
[11:23] <lotuspsychje> momomo: 14.04.3 should be pretty stable
[11:23] <nbrecht01> momomo: You cannot directly upgrade from 14.04 to 15.04. You must first upgrade to 14.10. It is safe, but bear in mind that 15.05 in NOT LTS.
[11:23] <lotuspsychje> nbrecht01: also 14.10 is eol
[11:23] <momomo> lotuspsychje, it's stable but it has alot of quicks
[11:23] <lotuspsychje> momomo: what kind?
[11:24] <momomo> lotuspsychje, lots of things .. are you using 14 ?
[11:24] <lotuspsychje> momomo: yes
[11:24] <momomo> ook. maximimze a window
[11:24] <momomo> then click on minimize
[11:24] <lotuspsychje> momomo: you have the right graphics driver active?
[11:24] <momomo> lotuspsychje, yes
[11:24] <momomo> then maximize that window by using the icon on the meny
[11:25] <momomo> try to click on a small link or icon on the window
[11:25] <momomo> wrong coordinates
[11:25] <momomo> that's annoying as hell
[11:25] <lotuspsychje> momomo: not sure if i get what you mean
[11:25] <momomo> also, the task switcher is shit in unity .. and compiz switchers are almost equally shit
[11:25] <lotuspsychje> !language | momomo
[11:26] <momomo> see this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1306550
[11:26] <lotuspsychje> momomo: what kind of graphics card chipset do you have?
[11:26] <momomo> nvidia .. i don't think it's a graphic issue
[11:26] <lotuspsychje> momomo: what chipset exactly?
[11:26] <momomo> 765m
[11:26] <momomo> but i have disabled it .. because it casuses freezes when flash is used
[11:27] <momomo> and i have to ctrl + f7 and tehn f8
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> momomo: you disabled your main card?
[11:27] <momomo> yes, using intel instead
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> momomo: no wonder you got issues
[11:27] <momomo> lotuspsychje, it's not related to the graphics card i believe
[11:27] <nbrecht01> I have problems with Nvidia too, Ubuntu does not have good drivers preinstalled. With a bit of work, you may be able to find some drivers
[11:27] <momomo> did you try what I suggested ?
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> momomo: listen mate, your card is an optimus card
[11:28] <momomo> nbrecht01, there are no good drivers .. nvidia will 1) cause frequent freezes which will make everything pause ... 2) fan keeps going on for nothing
[11:28] <momomo> lotuspsychje, yes
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> momomo: you need to use the nvidia card and install nvidia-prime to get things straight
[11:29] <momomo> lotuspsychje, i believe i have trieed those
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> momomo: then enable performance mode in nvidia-settings
[11:29] <momomo> performance mode required ?
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> momomo: also you need the right driver
[11:29] <momomo> i have the latest
[11:29] <momomo> and I have gone back and forth hundred times
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> momomo: latest doesnt always mean better
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> momomo: check if you have nvidia-prime installed please
[11:30] <momomo> already installed
[11:30] <eshant> I have just joined, I don't know the specifics of card. I am using nvidia latest drivers for my Nvidia GT525M card
[11:30] <lotuspsychje> momomo: if you want compiz and windows to work properly, your nvidia must be enabled right
[11:30] <momomo> lotuspsychje, you need to understand that sometimes these drivers do not work as one could hope
[11:30] <momomo> lotuspsychje, is performance mode going to make a difference?
[11:30] <lotuspsychje> momomo: of course
[11:31] <MonkeyDust> linux and nvidia don't make a happy couple
[11:31] <momomo> lotuspsychje, in what regard? maybe the context switching is what causes the frequent freezes ? and that could possibly solve it?
[11:31] <eshant> These are the packages that I am using - nvidia-352 nvidia-352-uvm nvidia-opencl-icd-352  nvidia-prime  nvidia-settings
[11:32] <lotuspsychje> momomo: we have many users with optimus card working like a charm on LTS
[11:32] <eshant> that allow how to switch intel<->Nvidia
[11:32] <momomo> lotuspsychje, then you need to see this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/519854/ubuntu-14-04-screen-freezes-randomly-with-nvidia-and-it-is-possible-to-fix-with
[11:33] <momomo> lotuspsychje, or this : https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1220426
[11:33] <eshant> lotuspsychje: no with intel graphics may also work well
[11:33] <lotuspsychje> momomo: thats on old thread suggesting bumblebee
[11:33] <lotuspsychje> momomo: and bumblebee is outdated
[11:34] <momomo> lotuspsychje, can you try the maximize then minimze thing to see if you also have this issue so we can avoid discussing the wrong thing?
[11:34] <momomo> open a browser
[11:34] <momomo> maximize it
[11:34] <momomo> then minimize WIN + M
[11:34] <lotuspsychje> momomo: i have no issues here on ubuntu, using compiz+ wobbly windows
[11:35] <momomo> maybe the wobbly windows fixes it though
[11:35] <lotuspsychje> lol no
[11:35] <MonkeyDust> and i disabled as many effect as possible
[11:35] <momomo> because when compiz gets involved it fixes the issue
[11:35] <lotuspsychje> momomo: you need the right driver combination togheter with your card + performance mode
[11:36] <momomo> i think there is a new nvidia update .. i will try that and then see ..
[11:36] <momomo> it might be related to the touchpad
[11:37] <MonkeyDust> momomo  install indiciator-cpufreq to switch easily between modes
[11:37] <momomo> i do hve one
[11:37] <lotuspsychje> momomo: remember, latest doenst always mean better for your card

[11:44] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: seems like bad archive maybe?
[11:44] <clorisu> lotuspsychje: is there any way to fix it? its extremely important
[11:44] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: maybe unpack with 7zip or something to test?

[11:54] <nbrecht01> Hello!
[11:57] <momomo> I updated, and switched to nvidia .. wrong x-coordinates still there
[11:58] <momomo> nvidia is showing one screen though
[11:58] <momomo> but i have too
[11:58] <momomo> i think compiz manages the other screen, right?
[11:59] <momomo> also, the fan is on for no reason
[12:00] <pwca> hi, I keep losing my IRC connection and I suspect it may have something to do with my shitty wireless card. how can I confirm my suspicion?
[12:01] <MonkeyDust> pwca  so that's an unstable wifi... mind your language, tho
[12:03] <MonkeyDust> !wifi | pwca start here
[12:03] <pwca> MonkeyDust: mind my language?
[12:04] <MonkeyDust> pwca  avoid profane words
[12:04] <pwca> avoid nonreligious words. got it.
[12:07] <Madura> Hi guys, Im going to use my laptop for some hard works. I have 500GB memory and I need to partision it.80 GB for root, 400GB for home, 500 MB for /boot. is it a good combination ? or what is the best ?
[12:08] <MonkeyDust> Madura  500GB HDD, not memory
[12:08] <MonkeyDust> Madura  are you a developer?
[12:08] <Madura> yes
[12:08] <Na3iL> Madura, 500 GB it is for you HDD
[12:09] <Madura> yes
[12:09] <momomo> how do you get compiz/ubuntu to remember the position of the window so it's not always opened on the second monitor which I seem unable to cahnge
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> Madura  80GB for root is huge
[12:10] <Na3iL> MonkeyDust, Did he need actually for /root & /boot, he can just set up /
[12:12] <momomo> seriously, this is not possible? i have to configure that on a per application basis using place windows
[12:12] <lisalll> Can somebody help me ?  /usr/bin/ucf: line 637: db_x_loadtemplatefile: command not found
[12:13] <Na3iL> momomo, before I answer you about the 2nd question, you asked about Nvidia driver
[12:14] <Na3iL> I think you have double GPU?
[12:14] <MonkeyDust> momomo  maybe there's a setting in dconf-editor you need to edit
[12:14] <Na3iL> Intel + Nvidia right?
[12:14] <momomo> Na3iL, yes, possibly, nvidia and intel
[12:14] <momomo> but the issue is on both actually, and then the second question is something else
[12:14] <Madura> MonkeyDust : what is the best combintion you suggested ?
[12:15] <lisall> Can somebody help me? Setting up php5-common (5.6.11+dfsg-1ubuntu3.1) ...
[12:15] <MonkeyDust> Madura  i'm no developer... my / is 15GB... /home is 100GB...
[12:16] <Na3iL> lisall, check this out → https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/5.6.11+dfsg-1ubuntu3.1
[12:17] <momomo> i got logged out for no reason
[12:17] <momomo> did I miss someting ?
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> momomo  maybe there's a setting in dconf-editor you need to edit
[12:18] <OnTheRocks> how can i give read permission to a user in a folder?
[12:18] <OnTheRocks> chmod 777 dir?
[12:18] <momomo> MonkeyDust, i think the window memory issue seems to aplpy mostly to chromium right now
[12:18] <Na3iL> OnTheRocks, chmod u+r example
[12:18] <lisall> Sorry this is my acctual problem Na3iL line 637: db_x_loadtemplatefile: command not found
[12:18] <momomo> and natuilus
[12:18] <MonkeyDust> OnTheRocks  careful with 777 ... better use 755 or so
[12:18] <momomo> and terminal
[12:19] <clorisu> negative lotuspsychje i just get an error "an error occurred while extracting files encrypted file is unsupported"
[12:19] <momomo> actually, it seems only ff is able to remember it
[12:19] <momomo> and you guys keep asking me what is buggy about ubuntu
[12:19] <momomo> nothing actually works
[12:19] <momomo> there is always a quirk in every aspect
[12:20] <OnTheRocks> http://pastebin.com/Zrq46x1c
[12:20] <OnTheRocks> i cant change permission of that folder
[12:21] <OnTheRocks> its a mount folder to a shared nfs windows folder
[12:21] <OnTheRocks> but how can i view its content?
[12:22] <Na3iL> OnTheRocks, you need to type sudo before the command or just switch to root by typing sudo su.
[12:22] <OnTheRocks> i did: sudo ls /mnt/win-nfs/
[12:22] <OnTheRocks> and says permission denied
[12:23] <momomo> and now the fan is on 100% of the time since i switched to nvidia driver
[12:23] <momomo> and the other issues remain
[12:23] <Na3iL> OnTheRocks, did you mounted the NTFS partition to read only?
[12:24] <OnTheRocks> yes
[12:24] <OnTheRocks> i used: nfsshare -o ro anon=yes mynfs=C:\nfs-sh (in windows)
[12:25] <Na3iL> No, OnTheRocks you need to mount it using your GNU/Linux distro
[12:25] <OnTheRocks> that what i did
[12:26] <momomo> and I just spent another 1.5 hour trying to fix a problem on ubuntu
[12:27] <Na3iL> What is the output of df -l ?
[12:28] <OnTheRocks> in linux i did: sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/mynfs /mnt/win-nfs
[12:30] <clorisu> Does anybody know what went wrong with this archive file? http://imgur.com/a/5ibqx (First image is the main directory, following two are the subfolders) -- When I transferred it originally it was just the 108.MOV file which was 3.7GB, but it split into that weird encryption folder which is 3.7GB and the 108.MOV is now 0 bytes?
[12:31] <Ben64> clorisu: looks like its broken
[12:31] <marus> after reboot i scan my local host for openport and i see 6881/tcp open  bittorrent-tracker
[12:31] <Na3iL> marus, what tool you use to scan your open ports?
[12:32] <Na3iL> OnTheRocks, can you follow this tuto → https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-nfs-mount-on-ubuntu-12-04
[12:32] <marus> Na3iL:nmap
[12:32] <marus> 13:31 < Na3iL> marus, what tool you use to scan your open ports?
[12:33] <clorisu> Ben64: is there any way to fix it?
[12:33] <Ben64> clorisu: ask the person who made it?
[12:34] <Na3iL> marus, Linux iptables Bittorrent tcp ports 6881 to 6889
[12:34] <dopstar> clorisu: what did you do with the file?
[12:34] <Ben64> marus: "sudo lsof -i :6881" will tell you what software is listening on that port
[12:35] <clorisu> Ben64:  i made the archive file myself, around 2 years ago. it corrupt at the time and ive just kept it saved since.
[12:35] <clorisu> dopstar:  nothing, just transferred it to a different file system only iirc.
[12:35] <dopstar> clorisu: you can generate a checksum like with: "md5sum filename.tar.gz > filename.tar.gz.md5sum"
[12:36] <marus> Ben64, i know wich software and i have stop it and closed the port, i was just wondering why it happend every time at boot
[12:36] <dopstar> clorisu: if the checksum is not the same then there was a network error in transmission you just need to treansfer it again
[12:36] <Ben64> marus: because you set it to run at boot
[12:37] <marus> Ben64: nope i rearly don't
[12:37] <Ben64> marus: it doesn't happen by default, so you did
[12:37] <Na3iL> marus, you have enabled Iptables firewall, thus while booting it opens TCP ports from 6881 to 6889
[12:37] <`ph8> Hi all, i've just installed the latest fglrx from wily-proposed and it works! I can boot, hurrah!
[12:37] <marus> okay :-) i will remove it from init and see if it come back :-)
[12:37] <OnTheRocks> dammm it
[12:38] <`ph8> I only have one more problem, when i'm playing graphic-intensive stuff like games (Planetary annihilation, prison architect) the graphics card starts resetting every few minutes (black screen, game is still in progress but monitor layout is reset)
[12:38] <OnTheRocks> asist@uvm120:~$ ls /mnt/win-nfs/
[12:38] <OnTheRocks> ls: impossível abrir a pasta /mnt/win-nfs/: Permissão negada
[12:38] <`ph8> after a few resets the whole desktop environment freezes
[12:38] <`ph8> any idea what it could be? There's nothing much in the Xorg.0.log (no warnings (WW) or anything)
[12:38] <OnTheRocks> why i cant view folder content?
[12:38] <Ben64> `ph8: sounds like it could be a hardware problem
[12:39] <OnTheRocks> i did a mount to a shared folder in windows
[12:39] <`ph8> It's fine outside of gaming
[12:39] <`ph8> and it's been fine in the past
[12:39] <`ph8> although my PC has just been in storage for 6 months
[12:39] <OnTheRocks> and i cant view its content event with admin rights!?
[12:39] <`ph8> it didn't happen with the Open source radeon drivers, although the game wasn't exactly performant
[12:39] <OnTheRocks> why?
[12:39] <Ben64> OnTheRocks: pastebin the output of "mount" and "ls -ld /path/to/mountpoint"
[12:40] <OnTheRocks> ok
[12:40] <`ph8> any idea how i might diagnose dodgy hardware @ben64? Like a getting too hot kinda thing?
[12:41] <Ben64> `ph8: heat could definitely be it. join ##hardware for hardware stuff
[12:41] <OnTheRocks> http://pastebin.com/Mkbrp9dQ
[12:41] <OnTheRocks> mount it didnt give any error
[12:42] <momomo> sometimes ( quite often ) the media scanner will start scanning my 1tb disk and that's quite annoying for no reason ... how can I disable that ?
[12:42] <OnTheRocks> i think system did the mount with success
[12:42] <OnTheRocks> but i can have permission to view
[12:46] <Ben64> OnTheRocks: you didn't paste anything i asked for
[12:47] <OnTheRocks> i paste it
[12:48] <Ben64> you did commands that i didn't say
[12:50] <momomo> is htere a wasy to get the switcher to an icon for each window ?
[12:51] <Ben64> OnTheRocks: i'm going to go ahead and give up now, if it's going to take this long to complete step 1, i can't do it
[12:52] <clorisu> dopstar: i dont have the original file that the archive was made out of unfortunately
[12:52] <unknownme> hi, I tried to make an bootable usb stick with usb-creator to install 15.10. I created the stick using 15.04. when I boot from this stick I get an "boot error".
[12:52] <clorisu> dopstar: if i did it wouldnt matter that the archive was broken, but unfortunately ive lost the original
[12:53] <EriC^^> unknownme: try sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync
[12:53] <unknownme> I read that it is not possible from 15.04 to create a 15.10 stick?
[12:53] <rory> unknownme: yes it is, it just copies the iso directly. you could do it from another Linux distribution even
[12:53] <EriC^^> ( make sure you get /dev/sdX to be your usb using sudo parted -l )
[12:53] <EriC^^> unknownme: ^
[12:54] <lotuspsychje> unknownme: did you try to press TAB when you get that message?
[12:55] <unknownme> lotuspsychje, no. with enter it continues booting from hard disk
[12:55] <syntroPi> unknownme, you could try to boot the iso in a vm (virtualbox) and give it the access to your usb stick. then you could use usb creator from within 15.10 to write that iso on usb stick
[12:59] <syntroPi> rory, i think it does a bit more than dd (i.e. install grub and such)
[13:00] <marus> Ben64: do you know how can i disable it from boot
[13:00] <rory> syntroPi: nope, you can dd directly to a usb flash drive and it works
[13:01] <rory> it's called a "hybrid iso" or something and it's been the case for a while now
[13:01] <syntroPi> rory, but usb-creator does not just copy like that
[13:01] <rory> no because usb-creator uses a method that works with ancient isos too
[13:01] <EriC^^> simplest and best way is to dd the iso
[13:01] <syntroPi> yes hence my comment
[13:02] <rory> Both methods work but dd is simpler if you're happy running a command
[13:02] <lotuspsychje> lucky for us devs are working on a new usb-creator for xenial
[13:02] <syntroPi> and btw that dd the iso is not working very reliably
[13:02] <EriC^^> syntroPi: dd is most reliable, surely more reliable than using a vm to write to a usb
[13:02] <EriC^^> :p
[13:03] <TJ-> lotuspsychje: yeah, a 2-line shell script with 'dd' in it :)
[13:03] <syntroPi> except when it doesnt work :P
[13:03] <lotuspsychje> TJ-: :p
[13:03] <EriC^^> syntroPi: it doesn't get much fool-proof than dd..
[13:03] <TJ-> EriC^^: don't you believe it!
[13:03] <auronandace> syntroPi: when doesn't it work? are you trying to dd non-hybrid iso files
[13:03] <futurama140> how do i mount an img file to a micrsd card?
[13:03] <unknownme> rory, EriC^^ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes... known issues -> point 3. I am not sure if this is the issue I have
[13:04] <TJ-> EriC^^: however simple you make it, I can bring you fools that can break it :p
[13:04] <unknownme> Due to changes in syslinux, it is not currently possible to use usb-creator from 14.04 and earlier releases to write USB images for 15.04 or later; we believe that it is also not possible to use usb-creator from a 15.04 or later system to write USB images for earlier releases. For now the workaround is to use a matching release of Ubuntu to write the images, but we intend to issue updates soon to work around this incompatibility. 13
[13:04] <unknownme> 25801, 1446646 and 1499746
[13:04] <EriC^^> TJ-: i mean the method itself, not the user interaction :p
[13:04] <TJ-> EriC^^: oh, you and your qualifications :D
[13:05] <auronandace> unknownme: that is due to the change to systemd in 15.04 and later
[13:05] <EriC^^> unknownme: use dd and call it a day
[13:05] <TJ-> bug 1499746
[13:06] <TJ-> auronandace: no, not systemd, it's the syslinux code changes
[13:06] <unknownme> EriC^^, ok. I'll try dd
[13:06] <momomo> lotuspsychje, to see the bug I was talking about, you need to disable the "show live previws in the switcher" in compiz unity plugin
[13:06] <auronandace> TJ-: ah, sorry, thanks for the info
[13:06] <lotuspsychje> !yay | momomo
[13:06] <TJ-> auronandace: i know why you'd think that though - it seems to be cause of most other disruption around 15.04 :D
[13:07] <lotuspsychje> momomo: so you installed ccsm?
[13:07] <momomo> lotuspsychje, i had it alreayd installed
[13:08] <lotuspsychje> momomo: ok col!
[13:08] <momomo> lotuspsychje, ^ ^
[13:08] <momomo> i am not even using the unity switcher
[13:08] <momomo> but that setting has to be on either way
[13:08] <momomo> i am using the static application switcher
[13:09] <futurama140> can someone guide me through the process of mounting an IMG file to a microsd?
[13:09] <momomo> now I wisht hat switcher could always show on all screens .. it's quite annoying that it keeps showing on one or the other
[13:09] <momomo> depending on active window
[13:09] <lotuspsychje> !info acetoneiso | futurama140 try this
[13:10] <futurama140> thank you. i shall try
[13:10] <futurama140> is not the capability built in ubuntu?
[13:11] <lotuspsychje> !iso | futurama140
[13:11] <lotuspsychje> !info furiusisomount | futurama140 or try this
[13:12] <futurama140> are IMG files treated the same as ISOs?
[13:12] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: an .img file is also an image like an .iso
[13:13] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: but not all programs will manage all types of images
[13:13] <futurama140> ok that's what i was assuming
[13:15] <lotuspsychje> ioria: good afternoon :p
[13:15] <ioria> lotuspsychje, hi there !!!
[13:16] <futurama140> is there somewhere i can learn all the essential functions of working in a linux distribution? like attaining a basic conversational proficiency in a new language? i understand mastery will take quite a while, but i find i have no clue how to accomplish basic tasks and i dont even know  what the appropriate questions are to ask.
[13:16] <lotuspsychje> !manual | futurama140
[13:16] <futurama140> aha! thank you.
[13:17] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: you can request manpages in your terminal also for help: man yourcommand
[13:18] <futurama140> man as in manual. ok. good to know
[13:19] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: there are also tons of handy packages for ubuntu out there, to make ones life easier, so if you need something come ask us
[13:20] <futurama140> what is a front-end for a program i already have?
[13:21] <allen> 晚上好，everyone
[13:21] <lotuspsychje> !cn | allen
[13:22] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: not sure what your asking here, can you detail?
[13:22] <chris_99> Does anyone know if theres any patch for the broadcom-sta driver, to make it compile on 4.2.0-18-generic
[13:23] <Erik_Underline> Hello
[13:23] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: welcome
[13:24] <futurama140> i keep finding mention of front-ends for things such as wine, with names that may have no relation the the core program. is this just a plug-in of sorts?
[13:24] <whiteknight69> Hi, is there any way to speed up the Caps Lock key? I use it instead of shift for typing in upper-case.
[13:25] <whiteknight69> There is a slight delay in Ubuntu as opposed to Windows
[13:25] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: playonlinux is a front-end for wine, means it uses wine also
[13:25] <ioria> chris_99, well, take a look here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl .... not sure
[13:26] <chris_99> i've found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/broadcom-sta/+bug/1504975
[13:26] <Erik_Underline> So I recently got the latest Ubuntu Linux distro yesterday, installed it on a SSD, and everything went fine. However, I'm having two big problems; first the headphone jack doesn't work, like it does while I run Windows on my older HDD. It is registered by the computer, as it switches in sound menu to  it, but it refuses to play any sound. I've tried all solutions on http://goo.gl/1LsGE5 but none works for me.
[13:26] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Erik_Underline
[13:27] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: tryed LTS on same machine?
[13:29] <futurama140> lotuspsychje: so it's a seperate piece of software that uses wine at its core and performs independantly?
[13:29] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: yeah you could say that
[13:29] <Erik_Underline> lotuspsychje: I picked the standard option to download on Ubuntu's site. LTS is standard right? If you mean LTS = long term support ?
[13:30] <Avocado_> Got my external harddisk, hurray
[13:30] <Erik_Underline> 14.04 I got, which is LTS
[13:30] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: you said you download latest ubuntu= 15.10?
[13:30] <lotuspsychje> ah ok
[13:30] <Erik_Underline> OH, wrong, I meant 14.04, assumed it was the latest, sorry xD
[13:31] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: no sweat, did you update to 14.04.3?
[13:31] <futurama140> ok. it's hard for me to get it with something new if i dont know the how and why. im not very good at blindly executing tasks like a mac user.
[13:31] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: it all depends what your trying to do exactly?
[13:32] <dawciobiel> Is it possible to add some additional name for interface? for exmaple i got "eth0" but i also wanna got "eth_lan". I need it cuz i got many scripts where configuration on them is based on interface name. I dont wanna change all of them when im changing name for interface
[13:33] <futurama140> well currently i'm trying to mount an IMG file to a microsd to root my nook tablet and simulateously trying to mount thief 2 game ISOs to install the game through wine.
[13:34] <Erik_Underline> I've only got 14.04 LTS
[13:34] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: lsb_release -a
[13:35] <Erik_Underline> Oh, it says 14.04.03 LTS here
[13:35] <Erik_Underline> lotuspsychje:
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: good :p
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> Erik_Underline: ok try to find sound errors in dmesg or syslog
[13:36] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: is this a relatively new PC?
[13:37] <futurama140> the game iso mounting is successful, and it is installing right now.
[13:37] <lotuspsychje> !yay | futurama140
[13:37] <futurama140> now i'm trying to mount an IMG to the microsd
[13:38] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: did you try that tool
[13:38] <TJ-> futurama140: what do you mean 'mount' that makes no sense
[13:38] <Fodd> Hey guys. Just a quick one. I sadly broke my S4 screen the other day, i really need to get a list of contacts from it.
[13:38] <Fodd> do you know of any software i can use that will let me download them?
[13:38] <Avocado_> he means mounting the iso
[13:38] <TJ-> futurama140: do you mean 'write' a data file to the micro-SD?
[13:38] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: It kinda is, it's from 2014, HP Elitebook 725 G2
[13:39] <TJ-> !ltse | Erik_Underline: I suspect you need a more recent kernel then, which LTS gets with ...
[13:39] <Avocado_> Does anybody know if I can make a folder inside of my backup HDD that is password protected?
[13:40] <Avocado_> I want to make distinction between private and public files
[13:40] <lotuspsychje> Avocado_: use chmod to secure folders
[13:41] <Avocado_> lotuspsychje, I mean so that people cant access some files in my hdd but can access things like movies
[13:41] <futurama140> the  README as well as the youtube video say "mount the IMG to the microSD card"
[13:41] <futurama140> i agree that it makes no sene according to y understanding of mounting, but it's the terminology they have used
[13:41] <futurama140> *sense
[13:41] <ioria> Avocado_, you can use Disks to make an encrypted partion on your drive ....
[13:41] <TJ-> futurama140: the entire sentence makes  no sense, we 'mount' to a file-system 'mountpoint' which is a directory
[13:42] <Avocado_> ioria, isnt that tied to ubuntu only?
[13:42] <ioria> Avocado_, you need multi system ?
[13:42] <echo> hi
[13:42] <futurama140> ok so i'm not alone in being confused by thewording of the instructions
[13:42] <echo> i have a question
[13:42] <Avocado_> ioria, I just want to password protect some files, preferrably a whole folder
[13:42] <echo> how can i output "-e" in the shell?
[13:43] <Guest76478> how can i output "-e" in the shell?
[13:43] <TJ-> futurama140: If it were me I'd walk away from those instructions; if the writer doesn't know what those terms mean they're dangerous
[13:43] <Avocado_> so when i lend my hdd people can access software and movies but not my personal files
[13:43] <Avocado_> external hdd*
[13:43] <lotuspsychje> Guest76478: start from the beginning, what are you trying to do?
[13:43] <ioria> Avocado_, ok... but that drive should be used also on win ?
[13:43] <Avocado_> Yep
[13:43] <Avocado_> Windows/mac/linux
[13:44] <lotuspsychje> Avocado_: bad idea, because there is software that can recover data on hd's even if its passworded
[13:44] <Guest76478> lotuspsychje: i am trying to use echo so that it outputs the string "-e"
[13:44] <ioria> Avocado_, complicated then....
[13:44] <Avocado_> lotuspsychje, i just want to protect it from noobs, not tech savvies
[13:44] <Avocado_> like my roommates
[13:44] <Guest76478> lotuspsychje: but neither echo
[13:44] <Guest76478> lotuspsychje: but neither echo '-'e nor echo "-e" nor anything else works
[13:45] <lotuspsychje> Avocado_: make an archive of your personal stuff,passworded
[13:45] <dawciobiel> what about "\\-e" ?
[13:45] <dawciobiel> or "\-e" ?
[13:45] <Avocado_> lotuspsychje, havent thought about that, thanks!
[13:45] <futurama140> yeah, the instructions were written by and for windows users, it states the mac and linux users need to " just extract the img file from the downloaded file and mount it to an sd card. its that simple"
[13:45] <Avocado_> just rar it passwordprotected
[13:45] <lotuspsychje> Avocado_: yep, long complicated password
[13:45] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: doesnt work
[13:46] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: the output is \-e then
[13:46] <lotuspsychje> Avocado_: or better, save your personal stuff on a seperate hd
[13:46] <futurama140> so i'm at a loss for what to do with the files i have
[13:46] <dawciobiel> Guest76478:  one sec, i will try it here..
[13:46] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: mount your .img file, and drag n drop the data to your sd...not that hard
[13:46] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: did you install that furius tool i suggested?
[13:47] <futurama140> yes,
[13:47] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: can you browse into that .img file with it?
[13:47] <futurama140> ok. that just seems too simple. i figured the sd would have needed to be made bootable somehow
[13:47] <futurama140> yea
[13:47] <dawciobiel> Guest76478: try: echo " -e"
[13:47] <dawciobiel> i got result: -e
[13:48] <ioria> Avocado_, give a quick look here http://askubuntu.com/questions/137828/how-to-encrypt-files-using-a-cross-platform-solution
[13:48] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: yeah but then there's a space in between
[13:48] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: that depends on the distro you wanna install on your tablet
[13:48] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: android?
[13:48] <dawciobiel> Guest76478: ok, one sec, i will try to get character code for '-- character
[13:48] <futurama140> cyanogen i believe is what i have
[13:48] <futurama140> yes android and nevermind i believe i got it working
[13:48] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: it's 0x02D
[13:49] <dawciobiel> 2D
[13:49] <lotuspsychje> futurama140: try the #android channel then, for more advise
[13:49] <dawciobiel> yes
[13:49] <Avocado_> ioria, WARNING: Using TrueCrypt is not secure as it may contain unfixed security issues
[13:49] <dawciobiel> Guest76478: did you tried withit ?
[13:49] <Avocado_> they detected some flaws i guess
[13:49] <MonkeyDust> Guest76478  or echo "-e "
[13:49] <Avocado_> The development of TrueCrypt was ended in 5/2014 after Microsoft terminated support of Windows XP.
[13:49] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: i tried echo -e \x2D
[13:49] <ioria> Avocado_, better than nothing :þ
[13:49] <Avocado_> ioria, what about bitlocker?
[13:49] <Guest76478> MonkeyDust: then there's a space after it
[13:49] <ioria> Avocado_, ah.... don't remember how it works, sorry
[13:50] <Avocado_> its a windows thing
[13:50] <MonkeyDust> Guest76478  yes, that works
[13:50] <Guest76478> MonkeyDust: there may not be a space
[13:50] <futurama140> its working just fine
[13:50] <MonkeyDust> Guest76478  maybe with 'sed' you can remove that space
[13:51] <Guest76478> sed?
[13:52] <Guest76478> TJ- surely knows something about it
[13:52] <Guest76478> he knows everything :D
[13:52] <MonkeyDust> Guest76478  http://www.theunixschool.com/2013/02/sed-examples-replace-delete-print-lines-csv-files.html
[13:53] <Guest76478> MonkeyDust: no no i have to do it using echo only
[13:53] <Guest76478> MonkeyDust: there definitely is a solution but i cant find it
[13:53] <zteam> Avocado_, It is believed that the TrueCrypt developers where pressed by authorizes like NSA or FBI and that they decided to shutdown TC becuase of that
[13:53] <Avocado_> zteam, I kind of believe that conspiracy
[13:54] <MonkeyDust> Guest76478  maybe the people in #bash know
[13:54] <clorisu> when I try to move a film from a external hdd to my harddrive i get an input/output error 3/4 of the way and it prevents the rest of the transfer. i can watch the whole video on the external hdd but only 3/4 on the hdd (and the file size is 3/4 also)? anybody know how to fix the input/output error or override it so i can transfer the rest of the file info?
[13:54] <Guest76478> MonkeyDust: ok i'll ask there ;)
[13:54] <dawciobiel> Guest76478: echo -n -;echo "e"
[13:54] <dawciobiel> :DDD
[13:54] <zteam> Avocado_, but from what I know no major flaws was found in Truecrypt, but there was some minior flaws detected
[13:55] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: wut
[13:55] <TJ-> Guest76478:   printf "%s\n" '-e'
[13:55] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: how does this work
[13:55] <dawciobiel> printf - YES, but you said only 'echo"
[13:55] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: right ;)
[13:55] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: try making an archive of the movie, then move to the other hd, and unpack there
[13:55] <dawciobiel> Anyway with only echo it will work this line:       echo -n -;echo "e"
[13:55] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: why is that?
[13:55] <zteam> Avocado_, needles to say, there is a fork taking over named VeraCrypt
[13:55] <dawciobiel> or just echo -n -;echo e
[13:56] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: why is that?
[13:56] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: one of the hd's is fat32?
[13:56] <TJ-> Guest76478: echo -e '\x2de'
[13:56] <MonkeyDust> Guest76478  knows how to excite the channel
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> lol
[13:57] <clorisu> lotuspsychje: will give it a shot, thanks. not sure ill check now
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: fat32 is limited for files bigger then 4gig perhaps its that?
[13:57] <Guest76478> TJ-: you got it :DD
[13:57] <clorisu> yep lotuspsychje , the original is on a fat32, and the receiver is ntfs
[13:57] <Guest76478> TJ-: i knew you'd get it
[13:58] <clorisu> lotuspsychje: limited in what regard?
[13:58] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: how big is your movie?
[13:58] <Guest76478> TJ-: btw i am xubuntu682 the guy with the broken acer
[13:58] <clorisu> lotuspsychje: 4.3gb
[13:58] <clorisu> lotuspsychje: but the file only transfers 2.9gb before the i/o error
[13:58] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: hmm i wonder how it got on that fat32 drive
[13:59] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: maybe thatw shy your movie broke?
[13:59] <clorisu> lotuspsychje: are there limitations to single file sizes on fat32 im not aware of? could you direct me to further info on the subject
[13:59] <zteam> clorisu, FAT32 only support filesd up 4 GB, if you want to transfer biger files to it, you need to convert the drive to NTFS or split the drive
[13:59] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: or can you play it as full movie from the fat32?
[14:00] <dawciobiel> Guest76478: I was trying with echo -e \x2D as well, but it will result "-" only, and when i wanna got "e" on this as well... i got SPACE between. echo -e \x2D \x65
[14:00] <clorisu> zteam: very interesting. thank you for the information. lotuspsychje  i can play the full movie from the fat32 seemingly
[14:00] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: yeah that was my problem aswell
[14:00] <geirha> 4.3GB ~ 4.0 GiB   so it checks out
[14:00] <dawciobiel> zteam: or split the file :)
[14:01] <lotuspsychje> dawciobiel: good idea
[14:02] <zteam> dawciobiel, ups that's what I meant when I wrote "splite the drive"
[14:02] <whiteknight69> clear
[14:02] <clorisu> alright lotuspsychje , i got "an error occurred while adding files to the archive" at 2.9gb of the temp file being made
[14:02] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: why does echo \-e not work for this one
[14:02] <Guest76478> dawciobiel: i just dont get it
[14:02] <whiteknight69> Guys where do I configure Video Card settings?
[14:02] <geirha> The limit of FAT32 is 4 GiB ~ 4.295 GB. Nautilus will display that as 4.29 GB or 4.3 GB most likely
[14:02] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: you remember how you got that movie on the fat32?
[14:02] <whiteknight69> Guys where do I configure Video Card settings?
[14:03] <clorisu> lotuspsychje:  im fairly sure i just cut the file and pasted it into the folder with thunar
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: whats not working
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: without errors?
[14:03] <clorisu> lotuspsychje:  yes iirc
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: ok maybe try what dawciobiel suggests, splitting the file
[14:04] <whiteknight69> lotuspsychje, I'm using an Intel HD iGPU. Tested a simple game and it's very jagged. Anti aliasing isn't working.
[14:04] <clorisu> lotuspsychje:  how am i able to do that?
[14:04] <geirha> If it is slightly less than 4.29 GB, then it will fit on FAT32
[14:04] <geirha> *slightly less than 4.3GB I mean
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> geirha: but it fails still on transfer to his ntfs
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: ubuntu version?
[14:05] <geirha> Is samba involved?
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: find a filesplitter for ubuntu
[14:05] <clorisu> geirha: 4,2777,794,880 bytes
[14:05] <dawciobiel> lotuspsychje: zteam suggested it first, but he made "mistake", i knew he did it thats why i answered
[14:05] <whiteknight69> 15.10 wily
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: tryed LTS on that same card?
[14:06] <zteam> clorisu, are u getting the i/o error with the harddrive you are transfering from or too?
[14:06] <geirha> clorisu: Right, that's less than the limit of 4,294,967,296 bytes
[14:07] <lotuspsychje> zteam: from fat32 to ntfs
[14:07] <geirha> clorisu: Are you copying it over the net? via shared drive?
[14:07] <whiteknight69> no, lotuspsychje. Is there any way to fix in on 15.10?
[14:07] <clorisu> zteam: not sure how do i check? geirha nope, just locally on my filesystems
[14:07] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: you can go bughunting your system for it, or try LTS liveusb to test difference
[14:08] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: syslog and dmesg hold relevant info to trace whats going on
[14:08] <whiteknight69> lotuspsychje, is there no GUI software for tweaking graphics?
[14:08] <geirha> clorisu: ok, then I'd boot into windows and check both drives with scandisk (or whatever it's called these days)
[14:09] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: before we 'tweak' we need to know whats going
[14:09] <zteam> clorisu, if I where in your shoes, I would try to perform a Checkdisk /fsck on the drive you are sending the file too
[14:09] <clorisu> zteam: i checked dmesg a few minutes ago and my last message was "[15312.880213] FAT-fs (sdb1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
[14:09] <clorisu> "
[14:10] <zteam> clorisu, if you have a Windows machine then stick to checkdisk, if not use fsck on Linux to check the drive
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: whiteknight69 wich driver= shows sudo lshw -C video?
[14:10] <clorisu> zteam: sdb1 is where the file is stored. should i run fsck on it? if so is there a chance of me losing the file by doing so?
[14:10] <TJ-> Guest76478: you can also do " echo  ^[--e  " that is 'echo ' Ctrl+V then Esc, then '--e'
[14:11] <whiteknight69> lotuspsychje, driver=i915
[14:11] <dopstar> clorisu: make sure the the drive is unmounted before your run fsck
[14:11] <Guest76478> TJ-: thank you ;)
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> clorisu: to split= http://askubuntu.com/questions/54579/how-to-split-larger-files-into-smaller-parts
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: i would try 14.04.3 LTS on it
[14:12] <whiteknight69> lotuspsychje, alright. Any other suggestions?
[14:12] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: sure, dig into your syslog and dmesg to see whats going on
[14:13] <clorisu> zteam:  this is what im getting http://pastebin.com/K8uBv4Cz
[14:13] <lotuspsychje> whiteknight69: any errors relevant to your graphics card
[14:13] <zteam> clorisu, from my experience fsck is a little more unreliable than Checkdisk on Windows them it comes to FAT and NTFS volume, that's why I reccomend you to stick with Checkdisk if possible :-)
[14:13] <pwca> why can't Lunix have a usable checkdisk tool?
[14:13] <clorisu> zteam: check out that paste, if its useless ill boot windows
[14:14] <geirha> pwca: because ntfs is closed source
[14:15] <pwca> why can't Lunix come up with a good alternative?
[14:15] <MonkeyDust> pwca  why can't windows have a usable fsck tool?
[14:15] <geirha> pwca: ext4
[14:15] <zteam> clorisu, it's not useless, it's simply refuses to work with a drive that is unmounted
[14:15] <pwca> isn't ext4 basically crap?
[14:15] <dawciobiel> why?
[14:15] <geirha> no
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> pwca  what makes you think that?
[14:16] <clorisu> alright zteam ill try checkdisk, be back soon
[14:16] <zteam> clorisu, if you want to contiune with linux just run sudo umount /path/to/drive
[14:19] <zteam> pwca, there are alternatives to both CheckDisk and alternatives to NTFS volumes as well, however, there is no way to repair a NTFS drive under Linux
[14:19] <pwca> MonkeyDust: it tends not to work on Windows.
[14:19] <Erik_Underline> Okay, so I tried updating the kernel, but it gave no effect to the fact that my headphones won't perform any sound while my internal speakers would. I also tried with external speakers but they failed aswell. I've tried all relatable solutions that you sent to me via the !sound thingy
[14:19] <Erik_Underline> I've checked everything in sound menu ofc
[14:20] <MonkeyDust> pwca  and windows things don't work on linux, you're right
[14:20] <zteam> pwca, that's not Linux fault, Linux can read and write NTFS volumes just fine
[14:20] <xela2244> hi, when i press power button screen should blank, but it does not do anything. I'm using ubuntu GNOME 15.10
[14:20] <MonkeyDust> pwca  that's because linux != windows
[14:21] <pwca> zteam: it can't repair it.
[14:21] <Reuds_> Hello i have an problem when i try to install/try ubuntu. It says: ACPI PCC probe failed. Then it freezes and i must shut down my pc manually. How can i fix this?
[14:21] <pwca> MonkeyDust: it's 2015, this kind of logic doesn't impress anyone.
[14:21] <Erik_Underline> I've tried to uncheck anything in alsamixer aswell
[14:21] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: OK, possibly the output is muted. At a command-line have you tried "alsamixer" and ensuring the output is not muted?
[14:21] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: OK, you're ahead of me :)
[14:21] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: :D
[14:22] <RDX4OO> Reuds_, try the newest version of ubuntu
[14:22] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: can you "pastebinit <( aplay -l; aplay -L )"
[14:23] <zteam> pwca, nope, but how often would you actually need to that, then you can do it from Windows?  (the only reason for using NTFS it if you are sharing data between a Linux and a Windows machine anyway)
[14:23] <Reuds_> okay. Thanks. I have Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
[14:23] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: What do you mean? Run the command in terminal?
[14:23] <Erik_Underline> pastebinit <( aplay -l; aplay -L )
[14:23] <zteam> pwca, and truth to be told, Linux can actually read some corrupted NTFS drive that Windows can't handle in some cases
[14:24] <xela2244> hi, when i press power button screen should blank, but it does not do anything. I'm using ubuntu GNOME 15.10
[14:24] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then run the command exactly as I typed it between the " " marks
[14:26] <Erik_Underline> It says it's unable to lock the administration directory  (/var/lib/dpkg/). It's asking if another process is running it. Should I kill all other processes, because I got a download going aswell
[14:27] <Erik_Underline> ?
[14:27] <xela2244> Erik reboot
[14:27] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: ignore that!
[14:27] <bekks> xela2244: Not necessary.
[14:27] <zteam> Erik_Underline, do you have synpatic or sofutware center open?
[14:27] <xela2244> or go on /var/lib/dpkg/status
[14:27] <Erik_Underline> I do
[14:27] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: if there's an existing apt / package operation in progress you'll need to wait
[14:28] <Erik_Underline> Oh okay
[14:29] <Erik_Underline> You can't pause downloads from software center? What is this, 2005? :D
[14:29] <chiel> :D:D:D:D:D
[14:29] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: instead do this  "cat <( aplay -l; aplay -L ) | nc termbin.com 9999"
[14:30] <zteam> Erik_Underline, why would you like to that?
[14:30] <Erik_Underline> http://termbin.com/f4bx
[14:30] <Erik_Underline> Okay here it is
[14:33] <Erik_Underline> I had my headphones plugged out at the earlier pastebin, here's with my headphones plugged in http://termbin.com/axs0
[14:33] <MrCeeIII> hello.... I am having an issue with installing latest version of flash player (adobe)
[14:34] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: right, I suspect the issue is due to the PC having 2 sound devices, HDMI and the internal ALC3228. When on speakers, are you using the HDMI ?
[14:34] <zteam> Erik_Underline, have you checked that you are using the right outport in sound settings?
[14:35] <MrCeeIII> I like the online gamecenter pogo and I continue to get the error that the flash player is out of date... when i go to the adobe site to dload it redirects to the software center which inturn states adobe not found...
[14:35] <MrCeeIII> anyone?
[14:35] <MonkeyDust> !flash
[14:35] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: I don't know if I'm using HDMI or not, where do I see that?
[14:36] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: which speakers are operating when you have sound? the ones on the HDMI monitor, or the system's internally connected speakers?
[14:37] <MrCeeIII> i already installed that
[14:37] <Erik_Underline> zteam: in sound settings, when I plug in my headphones, it switches to "headphones" from "speakers"
[14:38] <harduim> !next
[14:38] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: It must be internal speakers because I got a laptop and my monitor doesn't have any sound output
[14:38] <Erik_Underline> I assume :o
[14:39] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: ok, and you hear sound from the speakers?
[14:39] <Erik_Underline> I do
[14:40] <Erik_Underline> Perfectly clear, but whatever I put into the analog output mutes the speakers as it should, but doesn't give any output itself
[14:40] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: ok and does the GUI show the headphone output in its choice of output devices?
[14:40] <Erik_Underline> But it does get registered by the machine as it recognizes it as "headphones" in sound menu
[14:41] <Erik_Underline> With GUI I assume you mean the sound menu? Does it show anywhere else on the GUI?
[14:41] <zteam> if you go to sound settings output devices and try to change the output device to another and then play the test sound
[14:42] <hamrit> sm
[14:42] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: that's what I meant yes, because Pulseaudio would only show a headphone device if ALSA knew there is one, and your 'aplay -L' listing shows ALSA does *not* see a headphone device
[14:43] <freakyy> hi all. im trying to install the ubuntu propriaty drivers from the repository but when i boot with them the screen looks clutered, and dispositioned. like i move my mouse all the the right and then start again at the left etc.
[14:43] <freakyy> is there anything i can do about it?
[14:43] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: So how do I make ALSE see the headphones?
[14:43] <freakyy> i tried both the update driver and the non update driver
[14:43] <Erik_Underline> ALSA*
[14:44] <clorisu> hi zteam, im back. had complications on windows so decided to run chkdsk instead. got this output http://pastebin.com/vHd8iMJa -- it seems to have recovered a bunch of files into the fat32, but same i/o error when i try to transfer the one i want
[14:44] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: the first thing is to confirm this diagnosis. Double-check in 'alsamixer' for any menthion of headphone devices
[14:45] <freakyy> i mean the screen looks distore like several colored lines, black lines
[14:46] <freakyy> and it responds very slowly
[14:46] <zteam> clorisu, try to check the ntfs voule too
[14:47] <zteam> another idea is to check the health of the hard drive with the disc tool
[14:48] <MrCeeIII> http://imgur.com/WC77e8S
[14:48] <MrCeeIII> somebody please help
[14:48] <Erik_Underline> TJ-; From alsamixer via f6 I can see that I got 2 sound cards registered, some HDMI one and HD-Audio Generic one. The "default", the "-", is set to the HDMI one, but that's weird because In the HDMI soundcard it only shows some S/PDIF while the second sound card, HD AUDIO GENERIC shows MASTER, HEADPHONES, SPEAKERS etc etc.   All are unmuted.
[14:50] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: OK, so you do see HEADPHONES for the ALC
[14:50] <Erik_Underline> ALC? I do see headphones, yeah.
[14:51] <zteam> freaky what graphics card do you have?
[14:51] <TJ-> Erik_Underline: the 'aplay -L' doesn't list it, so now we know where to focus. I'm afraid I can't help you further on that, but there are folks around who should be able to use that info to kick ALSA/Pulseaudio into configuring a headphones output
[14:52] <drakonan> all right so im in ubuntu now yay
[14:53] <Erik_Underline> Okay thanks, I'll be leaving for a while now and return in 20 mins or so
[14:54] <freakyy> zteam: [AMD/ATI] Thames [Radeon HD 7550M/7570M/7650M]
[14:54] <drakonan> if it says x86-64 do i need a 32bit or a 64bit package
[14:54] <EriC^^> 64 bit
[14:54] <drakonan> k ty
[14:55] <zteam> MrCeeIII,   sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer, that would install flash for you
[14:56] <zteam> MrCeeIII, another option is to install Google Chrome, that one have a working and updated flashplayer built-in
[14:57] <clorisu> ok zteam so when i try to run it on the ntfs i get this error http://pastebin.com/8iyaMNtR
[14:57] <drakonan> ztane_, im jus installing that now hopefully i can use chromecast with it?
[14:57] <drakonan> with netflix
[14:57] <drakonan> how do i resolve dependencies google chrome
[14:59] <zteam> clorisu, NTFS cannot be repaired from a Linux machine, you need a Windows machine to do that
[14:59] <Reuds> hello. i downloaded the newest version of ubuntu and i get this error when i try to install it: ata8.00: status : { DRDY}
[15:00] <MonkeyDust> Reuds  what's the newest to you, 15.10 or 16.04?   16.04 is not ready
[15:00] <Reuds> 15.10
[15:01] <MrCeeIII> zteam: thanks man ill try it later... gotta run
[15:01] <zteam> clorisu, you can try with sudo ntfix /dev/sda2 but there is not much it can
[15:01] <freakyy> Linux schleppi 4.2.0-18-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Fri Nov 6 18:25:50 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[15:03] <MonkeyDust> Reuds  where did you download ubuntu and how are you trying to install
[15:03] <clorisu> zteam: ive tried copying it into two different ntfs filesystems, the linux and windows one, and the file stops at exactly the same byte for both. would that suggest its the fat32 and not the ntfs?
[15:04] <zteam> freakyy, there are drivers here check if they are newer than the ones you are currently using
[15:04] <Reuds_> i have ubuntu studios and i downloaded it from here:   https://ubuntustudio.org/download/
[15:05] <Erik_Underline> TJ-: Back, would a possible solution be a complete reinstall of the OS?
[15:06] <Erik_Underline> Maybe something happened for me during the install for the ALSA
[15:06] <zteam> clorisu, yes, it seems so, as I said earlier try wit chkdsk d: /R from a Windows machine and see what happens
[15:06] <clorisu> kk
[15:06] <MonkeyDust> Reuds  and how are you installing it... dvd/usb?
[15:07] <Reuds_> dvd
[15:07] <MonkeyDust> Reuds_  and is there a windows on it? which version?
[15:07] <Reuds_> Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
[15:07] <Reuds_> is this a problem?
[15:08] <zteam> freakyy, sorry forgot the link http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Linux+x86
[15:08] <MonkeyDust> Reuds_  you're not telling anything... what have you tried so far, where/when does it go wrong
[15:08] <MonkeyDust> Reuds_  do you want to dualboot or replace windows completely
[15:11] <Reuds_> okay i put in my Ubuntu studios disk. this works obviously :D. then i boot the cd and then i get the Menu :try ubuntu without installation. Install ubuntu and the other options. i think we all know wich menu. When I try "instsll Ubunut" or "gry ubuntu" i get an black screen with lines beginning with some numbers and ata8.00 or ats8: SError
[15:11] <clerisy> alright zteam for "chkdsk d: /R" im getting the error message "cannot open volume for direct access."
[15:11] <Reuds_> and i want a dualboot if this is possible
[15:13] <ioria> Reuds_, try F& Option -> nomodeset
[15:13] <ioria> Reuds_, try F6 Option -> nomodeset
[15:13] <zteam> clerisy, you were replacing D: with the device you were having trouble with right?
[15:13] <MonkeyDust> Reuds_  scroll down, is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/695557/boot-freezes-with-ata-error/696368
[15:14] <clerisy> zteam: replacing? what do you mean? sorry im confused
[15:15] <Reuds_> okay i try now with nomodeset
[15:15] <MonkeyDust> Reuds_  yes, nomodeset is a common solution
[15:15] <zteam> you are supposed to be replacing d: with the letter of the device you want to check (the one you want to copy the file to)
[15:17] <zteam> clerisy, so if it showing up as for example x: in Windows explorer the command should be, chkdsk x: /R
[15:17] <Reuds_> okay with nomodeset i have the same error
[15:17] <clerisy> zteam: how do i determine whats it called on windows? i know its /dev/sda1 on linux but windows uses the ":" drives right?
[15:17] <clerisy> zteam: my linux partition isnt showing up in windows explorer
[15:17] <zteam> clerisy, yep, that's showen in windows explorer
[15:18] <ioria> Reuds_, can you paste the exact error ?
[15:18] <Reuds_> ill try give me a sec
[15:18] <zteam> clerisy, linux partition, I thought you are trying to copy it to a NTFS partiton???
[15:18] <ioria> Reuds_, and how big is your HD ?
[15:19] <shibb> hello
[15:19] <shibb> who are you
[15:19] <zteam> clerisy, CheckDisk is a Windows utilty and can only check NTFS and FAT volumes
[15:20] <clerisy> zteam: i think the linux partition is ntfs? iirc it says ntfs/ext4 on the disk utility
[15:22] <zteam> clerisy, send me a screenshot please so I can see what you are doing?
[15:22] <clerisy> ok let me change back to linux and ill take it zteam
[15:22] <zteam> clerisy, ohh, you are on Windows now...
[15:23] <farid> how are u?
[15:24] <Reuds> here is the error code:http://www.fotos-hochladen.net/view/20151122161332w5l89utvzs.jpg
[15:24] <freakyy> zteam: thanks, but installing with Ubuntu option gives file not found errors and i get no .deb packages - im currently redoing it and checking the logfile
[15:24] <freakyy> will take some more time
[15:25] <noelia> Hello everyone
[15:25] <ioria> Reuds_, it's something like this https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=174335    the fix for him was switch SATA ports ...
[15:25] <ioria> Reuds, it's something like this https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=174335    the fix for him was switch SATA ports ...
[15:26] <MonkeyDust> Reuds  i read 'bad CRC' there, guess that's a clue
[15:26] <MonkeyDust> crc = cyclical redundacy check
[15:26] <clorisu> ah zteam i confused myself because its the whole harddisk which is listed as ntfs/ext4 , but thats just both of the partitions -- windows and linux. the linux partition is ext4
[15:27] <Reuds> switch sata ports? you mean to take the cable of the hard drive and put it instead of the sata xy into another?
[15:27] <clorisu> zteam: so is there any way to chkdsk the ext4 while its mounted and im using it?
[15:27] <zteam> clorisu, yes that sounds better :-)
[15:28] <bekks> clorisu: No.
[15:28] <clorisu> or better question zteam , is there any point checking it when the i/o error occurs at the same byte for both ntfs and ext4? doesnt that suggest its the fat32
[15:28] <motaka2> hello, after restarting ubuntu it ends to a dark screen, it shows the mouse pointer for a second and then it stops working in that black page
[15:28] <Reuds> but on the same hard drive there is windows and it works perfectly ._.
[15:28] <ioria> Reuds, switch your SATA ports your drives are connected to .....
[15:28] <muhandash> Hello.
[15:29] <ioria> Reuds, two drives ?
[15:29] <Reuds> i have only one hard drive ._.
[15:29] <ioria> Reuds, sorry, just one drive ?
[15:29] <muhandash> is this IRC?
[15:29] <bekks> clorisu: the same i/o cannot occur on nboth NTFS and ext4, since both are using different regions of your disk. If if, that test is pointless. I/O error indicate broken disks, which need to be replaces as soon as possible, after immediately ensuring you have a full backup.
[15:29] <MonkeyDust> muhandash  yes, the ubuntu support channel
[15:30] <muhandash> right, thanks MonkdyDust.
[15:30] <Reuds> iora yes only one harddrive
[15:30] <ioria> Reuds, the problem is not the drive, is the port on the MB
[15:30] <clorisu> bekks: it seems im getting the same i/o error. just to clarify, i am moving a file from fat32 to the ntfs and ext4, and that is when i get the seemingly same i/o error
[15:30] <Reuds> okay. So only ubuntu has obviously a problem with it bc windows works fine
[15:30] <clorisu> bekks: which is why i suggested the error was the fat32 error
[15:30] <motaka2> hello, after restarting ubuntu it ends to a dark screen, it shows the mouse pointer for a second and then it stops working in that black page. what should I do ?
[15:31] <zteam> clorisu, well lets start over a little bit, you have 1 fat32 device you were tried to copy a movie from and you had tried to copy it to both a NTFS volume and to ext4 volume right?
[15:31] <zteam> clorisu, is those the same volume?
[15:31] <clorisu> correct zteam
[15:32] <Reuds> okay i'll shut down and swith the ports and theeen if it works thanks but if not I'll come back :)
[15:32] <clorisu> zteam: volume meaning physical entity? its on the same harddrive
[15:33] <zteam> clorisu, okey, are u on Linux or Windows right now?
[15:33] <clorisu> zteam: the harddrive is partitioned into a ntfs and ext4, heres a screen http://i.imgur.com/invrsZI.png
[15:33] <clorisu> zteam: im on linux ext4 atm
[15:34] <motaka2> hello, after restarting ubuntu it ends to a dark screen, it shows the mouse pointer for a second and then it stops working in that black page. what should I do ?
[15:34] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[15:36] <zteam> if you click on the chuggwheel and select smart-data and self test, and then try to run a selftest on the device
[15:37] <clorisu> zteam: extended short or conveyance?
[15:37] <noelia> I need some help, I can't make Mania Drive game sound work
[15:37] <noelia> The output when I run the game from terminal is this : Cannot open sound system
[15:38] <Nick714> Hello
[15:39] <zteam> clorisu, try with extended if you want to be sure, btw there is a little windows tool you can try to copy the file with it you want, but I would still reccomend you to run the self test to make sure your disk is okey
[15:39] <MonkeyDust> noelia  does this give any output    play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[15:40] <clorisu> zteam: to copy the file with the i/o error? and okie ill run the test now
[15:41] <zteam> clorisu, yes http://www.roadkil.net/program.php/P29/Unstoppable%20Copier
[15:41] <Nick714> Ok so I have a bug I think I found. I found away around it last time but this time I am stuck. My internet does not work at all on Ubuntu Server and I need to install the correct Broadcom driver
[15:42] <clorisu> zteam: apparently theres a linux download for it, should i try it here?
[15:42] <zteam> clorisu, there are tools for Linuxs as well, but the only one i now about makes a complet mirror of your damaged disk
[15:43] <zteam> clorisu, cool didn't know about that, yes, try it first and then check the health of your device
[15:44] <Nick714> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2174511 is where I was able to figure it out with Ubuntu Desktop but  how can I install those drivers on Ubuntu Server without Internet? Can I store the files on a usb and install them on the computer?
[15:44] <zteam> clorisu, you should probably try to copy the files to a new harddrive or usb-pendrive
[15:44] <clorisu> zteam: you mean with the tool or before i try to use the tool?
[15:45] <noelia> MonkeyDust It does give an output
[15:45] <noelia> MonkeyDust I think it's correct
[15:45] <zteam> clorisu, with the tool
[15:45] <noelia> MonkeyDust It's a sound test, and it works perfectly well
[15:46] <nitish> How can I search for a file with starting keywords from terminal?
[15:47] <fred1807> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP8CNp-vksc
[15:47] <noelia> Would you please download the game and try if it works for you?
[15:48] <Nick714> Anyone know if it is possible to Sudo install a package onto a usb and move it into another computer without Internet?
[15:48] <noelia> http://maniadrive.raydium.org/index.php?downloads=yes
[15:49] <MonkeyDust> downloading a and installing a game is one bridge too far
[15:49] <nitish> Nick714: You can copy .deb file from one computer to another. To access that location "nautilus /var/cache/apt/archives"
[15:49] <noelia> MonkeyDust There's no need to install it, it's a binary
[15:50] <nitish> Nick714: and run .deb file in another computer type "sudo dpkg -i filename"
[15:51] <zteam> clorisu, be back later :)
[15:51] <clorisu> zteam: thanks for the help. i might be sleeping soon, so ill see you tomorrow if youre back
[15:51] <Nick714> nitish: If I do something like "Sudo apt-get install {b43 Broadcom driver}" that will install a.deb right? So I just have Togo into the path it, move it to my usb and run that command to run it correct?
[15:52] <EriC^^> Nick714: you need the .deb in a dir, and then type sudo dpkg -i file.deb to install
[15:52] <nitish> Nick714: Yes, try it. go ahead.
[15:52] <EriC^^> Nick714: but that doesn't mean it will install, you need to have the dependencies satisfied
[15:53] <freakyy> zteam: i think i found the problem. the version.h was relocated and i now linked to the correct version - i hope it works now :)
[15:53] <EriC^^> Nick714: dpkg -I file.deb should show the dependencies under Depends:
[15:54] <nitish> how can I search for a file from terminal?
[15:55] <noelia> Here's the output when I run ./mania_drive.sh
[15:55] <noelia> open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such file or directory
[15:55] <noelia> Raydium: ERROR: Cannot open Sound System
[15:56] <Nick714> EriC^^: Oh ok, so I will move it to my computer and if there are any required dependencies I will also put those onto a usb, install them onto my broken computer then install the .deb of the driver
[15:56] <EriC^^> Nick714: sounds good
[15:56] <Nick714> nitish: I will try it when I get home thanks a lot for the help :)
[15:57] <nitish> Nick714: You're welcome. :)
[15:59] <Nick714> Sorry one my question. So on Ubuntu Desktop I would be able to plug in my Ethernet able and it would get me Internet and from there I would install the correct wifi packages. In Ubuntu Server the Internet autoconfiguration failed with and without Ethernet. Do you think installing the correct Broadcom drivers would fix Ethernet and wifi? Or you think I have something setup wrong making no internet work
[16:00] <EriC^^> Nick714: were you able to run iwlist scan and such?
[16:02] <Nick714> Eric^: iwlist scan? What would that do?
[16:02] <noelia> Any ideas on how to make sound work in Mania Drive 1.2?
[16:02] <EriC^^> scan for available wifi
[16:03] <Nick714> Eric^^*
[16:03] <Nick714> Oh hah. That would of been smart to do...
[16:03] <EriC^^> Nick714: lspci -k | grep -A2 Wireless
[16:04] <EriC^^> should show the wireless card and the kernel driver in use ( if any )
[16:04] <Nick714> I did ifconfig, said I was connected to Ethernet but my inet address was the default blank address (0.0.27 something like that) so I assumed I didn't have internet
[16:04] <MonkeyDust> noelia  your sounds works, so it's game related and the game is not supported here... try here... http://memak.raydium.org/viewforum.php?f=10
[16:05] <Nick714> Eric^^: wireless card doesn't work at all unless I manually install the drivers hats why I need to use Ethernet to install them and if not then through USB. So iwlist scan how do I connect to wifi with a password from there?
[16:06] <muhandash> .
[16:06] <EriC^^> Nick714: i think you can use nmcli
[16:08] <Nick714> EriC^^: thanks a lot for the help I'm new to Ubuntu Server and not using GUIs. I'll try those commands when I get to my computer from there I'll figure it out. Hopefully Ethernet works so I don't have to go back and forth with a USB
[16:10] <EriC^^> Nick714: np, this might be useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/16584/how-to-connect-and-disconnect-to-a-network-manually-in-terminal
[16:11] <Nick714> Oh great thanks I'll check it out. I'll be back later if something goes wrong :P

[17:28] <rkeeder> My wifi adapter is not recognized with lspci
[17:28] <jamesguessis> makes sense

[17:28] <nrdb> rkeeder, have you tried to install the resisticted-drivers package
[17:29] <intuxicated> using _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=lcd' wont help
[17:29] <rkeeder> nrdb, no, I haven't. But the driver is recognized if I upgrade to 4.3 kernel, but I can't use that one for other reasons.
[17:29] <[BNC]Ahav> test
[17:29] <rkeeder> nrdb, Do you think restricted drivers may help with that in consideration?
[17:29] <nrdb> rkeeder, I need to use that to get my wi-fi to go.
[17:30] <rkeeder> nrdb, i see.

[17:31] <MonkeyDust> distrodsk  #javascript
[17:32] <MonkeyDust> or ##javascript
[17:32] <distrodsk> is that the same as ##javascript?
[17:32] <momomo> guys, iam running unity
[17:32] <momomo> and I am tired of it
[17:32] <momomo> i fixed one problem and now I have two
[17:32] <EriC^^> kills: try sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | nc termbin.com 9999
[17:32] <MonkeyDust> momomo  install something else, logout, switch, login
[17:32] <jamesguessis> Unity is horrifying
[17:32] <momomo> is it safe to unitall unity ?
[17:32] <momomo> and what should I switch to?
[17:32] <k1l_> momomo: you can install other desktops if you like and use them.
[17:33] <MonkeyDust> momomo  lxde, xfce, mate, kde
[17:33] <intuxicated> distrodsk, whats your problem
[17:33] <rkeeder> momomo, You can always try a different ubuntu flavor, like gnome or elementary.
[17:33] <momomo> MonkeyDust, i guess not gnome3 .. i believe that sucks too
[17:33] <k1l_> momomo: rkeeder elementary is no ubuntu flavor
[17:33] <MonkeyDust> momomo  you mean that you don't like it
[17:34] <momomo> gnome3 .. last time i tried it it was lacking .. but i am not sure
[17:34] <k1l_> momomo: its your choice. so we cant tell you what you may like. so try it yourself
[17:34] <distrodsk> intuxicated im trying to make a theme picker where clicking one of several buttons changes the font, color, background of the webpage
[17:34] <kills> EriC^^:  got a broken pipe error
[17:34] <rkeeder> k1l_, ok, but close enough fundamentally under the hood.
[17:34] <momomo> k1l_, there is a cost of context switching
[17:34] <momomo> and setup and what not
[17:34] <momomo> so how do I remove unity and all assoicated packages ?
[17:34] <distrodsk> ive made a javascript function where ive declared a variable backgroundcolour
[17:34] <momomo> safely
[17:34] <k1l_> rkeeder: that is why you should ask the elementary support about your issue. we cant know what they changed
[17:35] <k1l_> momomo: you are making more drama than is needed.
[17:35] <EriC^^> kills: ok, type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999
[17:35] <MonkeyDust> momomo  you don't... remove ubuntu and install xubuntu or lubuntu, or kubuntu, or ubuntu-mate
[17:35] <fractal618> How can I keep my WIFI USB powered while the computer is in sleep mode?
[17:36] <rkeeder> k1l_,  my issue is exactly the same on Ubuntu, Gnome, Lubuntu and Elementary.  Tried them all.
[17:36] <momomo> MonkeyDust, remove ubunut ? i have so much installed .. that would be a tough restart
[17:36] <rkeeder> My wifi adapter is not recognized.
[17:36] <kills> yay this one i already have in history :D, http://termbin.com/czr2
[17:36] <MonkeyDust> momomo  then install xubuntu-desktop, it's light and fast
[17:36] <momomo> MonkeyDust, so it's not possible to unsintall unity  ?
[17:37] <k1l_> momomo: it is.
[17:37] <k1l_> momomo: so please see the answers and not just carry on ranting
[17:37] <MonkeyDust> momomo  i guess it's possible, but not advisable (is that a word?)
[17:38] <momomo> i am getting mixed messages .. k1l_ is it safe to remove unity ? and install say, gnome3 or cinnamon instead?
[17:38] <EriC^^> kills: ok, try sudo apt-get install --reinstall nouveau
[17:38] <EriC^^> kills: hold on
[17:38] <k1l_> momomo: you will need another desktop if you want to remove unity. so dont tell users who answered you " <momomo> k1l_, there is a cost of context switching"
[17:38] <EriC^^> kills: ok, try sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[17:39] <k1l_> momomo: you can  install gnome-shell package from ubuntu repo, log out, chose  gnome on login screen. then you are done
[17:39] <MonkeyDust> momomo  don't reject every advice you get here
[17:39] <momomo> k1l_, yes, i understand that .. what I meant is that there is a cost so I can't just try and see .. i'd like to get the best on first try
[17:39] <EriC^^> momomo: we can't know which de you'd like that easily
[17:40] <kills> EriC^^:  done
[17:40] <EriC^^> you could try them in a vm if you want and see which one you like best momomo
[17:40] <momomo> EriC^^, is it possible to install cinnamon first and then remove unity ?
[17:40] <EriC^^> kills: ok, try sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-generic
[17:41] <k1l_> momomo: yes
[17:41] <k1l_> momomo: install the cinnamon desktop package.
[17:42] <momomo> is this guide ok: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/07/new-cinnamon-ubuntu-14-04-ppa-stable
[17:42] <momomo> and then : apt-get autoremove --purge unity-*
[17:42] <k1l_> momomo: what ubuntu are you on?
[17:42] <freakyy> does anyone here have the latest ati binary driver from the amd website installed? ... it keeps giving me no such file or directory ...
[17:42] <momomo> 14.04
[17:42] <k1l_> momomo: yes, than you need a PPA. like mentioned in that article
[17:43] <momomo> cinnamon is pretty good right? i've heard good things about linuxmint
[17:43] <momomo> i hope it's more stable than and less buggy than unity
[17:43] <momomo> can someone confirm?
[17:43] <k1l_> momomo: its more about if you like the looks.
[17:44] <MonkeyDust> momomo  and mint is different distro
[17:44] <EriC^^> momomo: i wouldn't do purge unity-*
[17:44] <momomo> EriC^^, yes, maybe .. some people are having problem in that link with this update
[17:44] <kills> EriC^^:  done
[17:44] <MonkeyDust> momomo  what exactly are you struggling with
[17:45] <EriC^^> kills: ok, type sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us
[17:45] <momomo> MonkeyDust, so many minor things .. but right now, the cup that made it enough ( after 2 years )
[17:45] <momomo> is the the problem with the minimize then maximize mouse coordination error
[17:46] <k1l_> momomo: ah, you are the guys from the last days. that error is gone on 15.10
[17:46] <momomo> i solved it by enabling show live previews .. but i don't use the unity application switcher because it;s not ideal but the cssm application switcher
[17:46] <momomo> k1l_, so i heard, but someone told me today they dind't have it even on 14.04 so i ma thinking there is something in my setup
[17:47] <momomo> but i am not sure
[17:47] <k1l_> momomo: but if you like another desktop environment: just install another and use that. i dont get why you are making such a drama out of it
[17:47] <momomo> k1l_, so just install cinnamon without removing unity /
[17:47] <momomo> ?
[17:47] <HackerII> momomo,  just install mate and all that goes with it and things may go back to normal.
[17:47] <MonkeyDust> momomo  in 14.04 you need a ppa for cinnamon
[17:48] <k1l_> momomo: install another desktop you like from the repo and see if you like it. no need for debating hours on irc if you might like it. we cant help you on liking a desktop
[17:48] <me-1> hi...how can I install Chrome on ubuntu
[17:49] <kills> EriC^^:  typed in the wrong comman now it keeps adding lines and doesnt execute how can i exscape to type in new command
[17:49] <logglog> me-1: open ubuntu software center and isntall chromium
[17:49] <EriC^^> me-1: go to https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/
[17:49] <EriC^^> kills: try ctrl+c
[17:49] <momomo> ok, i will... so when I install cinnamon from a ppa .. will it automatically choose cinnamon as defaut then  ?
[17:49] <momomo> will all unity stuff still load and run in the background /
[17:49] <momomo> ?
[17:50] <k1l_> momomo: you need to chose it on login screen. after that it will be the 1st choice everytime
[17:50] <momomo> i am just afraid that I be left surfing for answers on the mobile once i go this router
[17:50] <HackerII> log out pick cinnamon and log back in
[17:50] <momomo> ook thanks
[17:50] <me-1> logglog, EriC^^  what is the diffrence between two..? do I need to add ppa for chrome
[17:50] <logglog> Hello everyone, I opened my home folder and pressed ctrl + H to show hidden files and folders. Now every time i open my home folder it is showing the hidden files and i have to press ctrl+h to hide them every time. how do i fix this?
[17:50] <HackerII> momomo, , if anything looks picky, just do a simple reboot to reset things
[17:50] <k1l_> momomo: when unity is installed but another desktop is uses, it doesnt load unity in the background
[17:50] <EriC^^> me-1: chromium is the open source variant of google chrome, but i dont think it has pepperflash i dunno, i think you have to install that or add it
[17:50] <kills> http://sprunge.us/lgBr
[17:51] <logglog> Chromium is the open-source project that forms the basis for Google Chrome. Because it’s completely open source, Chromium is available in many Linux distributions’ software repositories for easier installation.
[17:51] <BluesKaj> me-1, chrome will add it's own ppa if you use the deb package to install
[17:52] <momomo> ook
[17:52] <BluesKaj> EriC^^, chrome uses it's own embedded flash plugin , no pepper needed
[17:52] <EriC^^> kills: are you sure of the link? it says not found
[17:52] <logglog> if you want chrome go https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/ but at the end its the same as crhome
[17:52] <EriC^^> BluesKaj: yeah, i meant chromium, does it have flash too?
[17:53] <kills> http://sprunge.us/MfEU
[17:53] <BluesKaj> chromium does yes
[17:53] <kills> tried again now seems to load

[17:56] <logglog> Hello everyone, I opened my home folder and pressed ctrl + H to show hidden files and folders.  I've used ethtool to change duplex and speed to 10/half with autonegotiation turned off, and ping to <IP_ADDRESS> is still loosing %50 of packets. I would suspect a hardware issue as the issue has survived a reinstall from another distro if it wasn't for the regularity in timing and length of the network outages. Feels like something is timing
[18:06] <stewi> out and restarting. Almost exactly 50% of packets are being dropped.
[18:07] <nbusrone> Anyone know , why does an external 3.5 hard drive doesn't have a safely remove option on 14.04 ? I occur when the hard drive was started before the PC is turn on but if booted into 14.04 and started the drive , it show a safely remove option.
[18:07] <kills> EriC^^:  same thing just now it blinked some screen for a milisecond

[18:41] <ikonia> other than that, it's jsut another linux distro with good/bad things that each person will like/dislike
[18:41] <ikonia> depends
[18:41] <the_count> cdk_: 'sudo apt-get install dkms'
[18:41] <k1l_> tumbler: on old hardware better see Lubuntu.
[18:41] <CircuitZero> I've been having a hell of a time with xorg.conf - I've tried more than a few steps, would anyone like to help me debug? http://pastebin.com/sTtBZUf0
[18:42] <biapy> tumbler, lubuntu or xubuntu is your friend for pc with 2GB ram or less
[18:43] <tumbler> can i install lxqt???
[18:43] <ikonia> yes, but you should check if there is a package for it
[18:43] <ikonia> as that will make your life easier
[18:44] <tumbler> should i start by net cd??
[18:44] <ikonia> no
[18:44] <ikonia> use the stadnard CD
[18:44] <stewi> CircuitZero what exactly is the problem?
[18:44] <cdk_> the_count:: Its doing the same thing
[18:45] <redeyers> bro
[18:45] <the_count> cdk_: Well... i'm not sure what to say, this is completeley cout of my realm, try looking it up or getting someone else to help you
[18:46] <cdk_> kk thanks for trying to help me
[18:46] <redeyers> whoami?
[18:46] <redeyers> what dog?
[18:47] <boxmein> hey
[18:47] <boxmein> does anyone here know of a cross-cloud or whatever service that'd let me use onedrive on ubuntu
[18:48] <boxmein> because I have a load of files on onedrive already and do not feel like moving over to whichever provider has a linux today
[18:48] <ikonia> I think you'll struggle for that
[18:48] <redeyers> Hahahhaha
[18:48] <redeyers> nice bro
[18:48] <ikonia> redeyers: please stop with the random comments
[18:48] <ikonia> redeyers: you're in #ubuntu and IRC channel for the ubuntu linux distribution support
[18:49] <biapy> boxmein, seafile is a nice dropbox alternative... it may be of help (but not onedrive compatible)
[18:50] <boxmein> I mean there's StorageMadeEasy but can anyone vouch that it's legit
[18:50] <boxmein> https://eu.storagemadeeasy.com/
[18:50] <wafflejock1> boxmein: DropBox works cross platform, if you want something you can run yourself OwnCloud is an option
[18:50] <boxmein> wafflejock1: yea, I use dropbox already :P
[18:50] <boxmein> wafflejock1: and gdrive, et al
[18:51] <boxmein> it's just that parts of my school stuff are on onedrive
[18:51] <boxmein> meh I'll move them to gdrive and survive
[18:51] <biapy> boxmein, for a decentralized approach : syncthing
[18:51] <stewi> I don't belive this. The moment I start running a packet sniffer the problem goes away.
[18:55] <AQLIVE> anyone here how know about dual boot?
[18:55] <stewi> So the server fails to ping specific hosts. It can ping my desktop just fine, but can't ping the router it's plugged into, while I can ping the same rounter just fine/
[18:55] <AQLIVE> I installed ubuntu and now I can't boot in windows anymore. I can see the windows partition still but I can not boot into that anymore
[18:55] <AQLIVE> I tried to do a update-grub but that didt help either
[18:56] <cap0>
[18:56] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: which windows?
[18:56] <AQLIVE> 7
[18:56] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[18:56] <AQLIVE> Hi Eric I think you tied to help me on friday
[18:56] <AQLIVE> with the problem
[18:56] <EriC^^> yeah
[18:56] <stewi> AQLIVE: you're sure you didn't overwrite the windows boot partition
[18:56] <AQLIVE> I'm now back on ubuntu
[18:57] <AQLIVE> I don't know
[18:57] <AQLIVE> how can I tell?
[18:57] <AQLIVE> I can still see the windows partion
[18:58] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: run the command and paste the link here
[18:58] <AQLIVE> if I did overwite the boot partions is there anyway to get it back
[18:58] <AQLIVE> the update command?
[18:58] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: no, sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[18:58] <AQLIVE> I did that and when I restaretd I was booted directly into ubuntu
[18:58] <stewi> EriC is ont eh right track, get the output of parted -l.
[18:59] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: it should give you a link to a pastebin
[18:59] <stewi> that command will give you a link,
[18:59] <stewi> put the link in here.
[19:00] <AQLIVE> after entering that command it tell me to use natcat
[19:01] <AQLIVE> am I doing something wrong
[19:01] <sam_> when i run this command "fab install" i got this error: Fatal error: Need hardware VM support (vmx) Aborting. Disconnecting from localhost... done.
[19:01] <stewi> I don't understand what you mean by tells you to use natcat
[19:01] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: ok, try sudo parted -l | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us
[19:02] <AQLIVE> http://sprunge.us/LIfB
[19:02] <AQLIVE> is that correct
[19:02] <EriC^^> hmm, it's empty
[19:02] <stewi> two newline characters and a space, nope. SOmethign failed.
[19:03] <stewi> two newline characters and a space, nope. Somethign failed.
[19:03] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: try sudo parted -l , does that work?
[19:03] <ke4nhw> Does ubuntu deal with processor cores differently from other OS's? I'm finding that for some reason after security updates installed I cannot reboot the OS in VirtualBox, it crashes; unless I reduce the processors to 1
[19:03] <AQLIVE> command not found
[19:03] <AQLIVE> is it because it's in MBR mode insted of grub mode?
[19:03] <stewi> How many cores did you have running when you installed it ke4nhw
[19:03] <AQLIVE> if yes how do I change it back to brug
[19:04] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: are you sure you're typing parted ?
[19:04] <AQLIVE> grub
[19:04] <stewi> AQLIVE fdisk -l
[19:04] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: try sudo fdisk -l
[19:04] <sam_> someone provide help ? when i run this command "fab install" i got this error: Fatal error: Need hardware VM support (vmx) Aborting. Disconnecting from localhost... done.
[19:05] <jack-the-ripper> Is it possible to install fonts in lubuntu?
[19:05] <AQLIVE> yes and what do you need in this section
[19:05] <biapy> is there a way to prioritize pm hibernate restoration over swap mount ?
[19:05] <stewi> jack-the-ripper: have you tried http://askubuntu.com/questions/3697/how-do-i-install-fonts?
[19:06] <AQLIVE> hang on it me how is fu.... stupid - sorry guys. I do the parted again hang on
[19:06] <stewi> press <ctrl>-H to show hidden files fyi.
[19:06] <jack-the-ripper> I'll check that out
[19:06] <ke4nhw> 2
[19:07] <ke4nhw> Same as I set all my vm's
[19:07] <ke4nhw> from install onward
[19:07] <stewi> That's trippy man.
[19:07] <ke4nhw> In fact I didn't change anything in the vm setup between boots
[19:07] <ke4nhw> yea
[19:08] <ke4nhw> But it's running now on one core
[19:08] <jack-the-ripper> Thank you, that got them installed :)
[19:09] <stewi> Np, didn't think I'd end up helping someone while I tried to get help myself on here.
[19:09] <ke4nhw> it may not be staying anyway unless I can get ltsp up and operational
[19:09] <AQLIVE> ok so now I got something on the partede -l nc  . . . . .
[19:09] <ke4nhw> Truth be told I'm a RedHat guy, always have been, only running Ubuntu cuz ltsp isn't native in RH
[19:10] <AQLIVE> what do you need
[19:10] <AQLIVE> 1,2,5,6 are the numbers and the first one shows primary ntfs boot flag
[19:10] <fsociety> hello.
[19:10] <AQLIVE> that should be my windows partitions
[19:10] <stewi> AQLIVE run this 'sudo parted -l | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us'
[19:10] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: copy the output of sudo parted -l and paste it in paste.ubuntu.com
[19:10] <AQLIVE> partition
[19:10] <ke4nhw> I do have one interesting question should there be any takers on this controversial issue...
[19:11] <stewi> Or do what EriC said, that works too.
[19:11] <stewi> I love contoversey
[19:11] <ke4nhw> I noticed yesterday during the install that the root password couldn't be set right away, which I got fixed. It's corrupted by default in ubuntu server 14
[19:12] <ke4nhw> But everything that root can do is capable of being done via an admin user with sudo
[19:12] <game0> guys, I'm trying to install java jdk a file in my ubuntu server using this command
[19:12] <ke4nhw> What is the difference then, and what does corrupting root gain anyone?
[19:12] <game0> tar -zxf jdk-7u79-linux-x64.tar.gz -C /opt/jdk
[19:12] <ke4nhw> Other than no root login?
[19:12] <AQLIVE> done poster called aqlive
[19:12] <game0> and the error
[19:13] <game0> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[19:13] <game0> tar: Child returned status 1
[19:13] <game0> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[19:13] <stewi> ke4nhw I'm with you on this one.
[19:13] <AQLIVE> can it be fixed ?
[19:13] <AQLIVE> or have I really screwed the system
[19:13] <dominik> yes
[19:13] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: what's the link?
[19:13] <dominik> hello my friendy
[19:13] <stewi> sudo -i is muscle memory for me though.
[19:13] <ke4nhw> And before everyone has a heart attack, yes I do a good bit of my work with sudo, but more to make everyone else happy than because it's better.
[19:13] <AQLIVE> paste.ubuntu.com/13453212
[19:14] <dominik> :D
[19:14] <ke4nhw> First: unless the sudoer file is sufficiently edited, a sudo user can do anything. So they can obliterate a system just as quickly as root, only requiring one more entry of their password of course
[19:14] <game0> can someone help me
[19:14] <game0> ?
[19:14] <dominik> now port 431
[19:14] <ke4nhw> so 'cd / && rm -rf' is just as bad for one as the other.
[19:15] <ke4nhw> thanks stewi glad to see someone else sees the logic here
[19:15] <dominik> sudo su
[19:15] <stewi> AQLIVE: you didn't overwrite your boot partition, you overwrit your windows partition as far as I can tell.
[19:16] <ke4nhw> sudo is best for admins you want to LIMIT what they can do. It allows them to perform some functions, while blocking others
[19:16] <game0> tar -zxf jdk-7u79-linux-x64.tar.gz -C /opt/jdk
[19:16] <pauljw> ke4nhw: no need to post dangerous commands here and you need to take the discussion to #off-topic it's not support related.
[19:16] <ke4nhw> If it's configured for that
[19:16] <game0> and the error
[19:16] <AQLIVE> is that a way to get it back
[19:16] <game0> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[19:16] <stewi> want no, nevermind, that is your windows partition
[19:16] <ke4nhw> my apologies
[19:16] <AQLIVE> and up and running again?
[19:16] <game0> tar: Child returned status 1
[19:16] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[19:16] <game0> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[19:16] <ke4nhw> hence the "just as bad" part.
[19:16] <stewi> AQLIVE your "boot" partition is actually the windows partition
[19:16] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: then type ls -l /mnt/ntldr
[19:16] <ke4nhw> I'll move over there, thanks
[19:17] <game0> tar.gz I cannot extract it
[19:17] <pauljw> ke4nhw: no problem, thanks
[19:17] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: hold on
[19:17] <EriC^^> AQLIVE: type ls -l /mnt/bootmgr
[19:17] <goddard> can i install Google Chrome in a chroot?
[19:17] <stewi> ntldr is a win xp thing isn't it?
[19:17] <ke4nhw> what's the ubuntu off topic room or social room
[19:18] <wafflejock1> game0: any way you can verify the download isn't corrupt (md5 hash or anything)?
[19:18] <stewi> Never seen it on 7.
[19:18] <k1l_> !ot | ke4nhw
[19:18] <ke4nhw> ok
[19:18] <EriC^^> stewi: nah, i've seen it used to boot non-uefi win8
[19:18] <stewi> ok
[19:19] <stewi> I try stay away from it anyways.
[19:19] <ioria> game0, no problem in using that command .....
[19:19] <stewi> Especially with the new included spyware that comes with it.

[19:19] <AQLIVE_> is what I get Eric
[19:19] <ioria> game0, /opt/jdk exists ? try with sudo
[19:20] <game0> ok
[19:20] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[19:20] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: then type ls -l /mnt/bootmgr
[19:20] <game0> I'll try to download it
[19:20] <stewi> I digress. Nobody seems to know why my ubuntu server would have an intermittent network connection.
[19:21] <AQLIVE_> ls -l /mnt/bootmgr
[19:21] <AQLIVE_> cannot access
[19:21] <AQLIVE_> is what I get
[19:21] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: did you type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt ?
[19:22] <AQLIVE_> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error         In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try        dmesg | tail or so.
[19:22] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: hmm
[19:23] <stewi> I'll be off then. If my intermittent network problem persists with a new Gigabit NIC and I can't get it running with a couple of days of work I'll post in the forums. For now I'll put up with 50% of requests getting through.
[19:23] <stewi> Better than 0%

[19:28] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: please use paste.ubuntu.com
[19:28] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: can you type dmesg | tail and paste that as well?
[19:29] <AQLIVE_> ok sorry
[19:32] <AQLIVE_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13454174/
[19:33] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: ok, try sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[19:33] <EriC^^> if it fails, type dmesg | tail and paste it
[19:34] <AQLIVE_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13454230/
[19:34] <EriC^^> ok, try dmesg | tail and paste the output
[19:35] <AQLIVE_> dmesg is /bin/dmesg
[19:35] <vicsar> .
[19:36] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: dmesg | tail
[19:37] <AQLIVE_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13454338/
[19:38] <iaj> j
[19:39] <AQLIVE_> did that bring you close to a solution :d
[19:39] <EriC^^> well it's a bit better, i think the disk isn't toast
[19:39] <AQLIVE_> lol
[19:39] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: run sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda1 and paste the output
[19:39] <AQLIVE_> but can I get my windows 7 up and running again :d
[19:40] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: yeah, if we can get it to mount it it should run i guess
[19:40] <AQLIVE_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13454495/
[19:42] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: do you have a windows cd somewhere?
[19:43] <EriC^^> i think you need to run chkdsk
[19:43] <AQLIVE_> not right now but if I did what sould I do
[19:43] <AQLIVE_> and after that
[19:43] <cdk_> can i get help with installing a third os on my hard drive my issue is grub wont let me boot from a usb
[19:45] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: do you have important data on it?
[19:45] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: try sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[19:45] <AQLIVE_> done then what
[19:45] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: type sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
[19:46] <droppyoppy> cdk_, booting from usb is configured in bios, not grub
[19:47] <Bashing-om> the_count: I am on ... What is the current status ?
[19:47] <AQLIVE_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13454851/
[19:48] <MonkeyDust> cdk_  boot the pc, then hit F12 for the boot device menu   (maybe something different from F12)
[19:48] <cdk_> why wont grub let me boot from an usb
[19:49] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: type sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:49] <MonkeyDust> cdk_  that'sz not what grub does, you're seeing it wrong
[19:49] <AQLIVE_> sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:50] <AQLIVE_> http://termbin.com/ni17
[19:50] <ioria> cdk_, but the third OS is already installed ?
[19:51] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: ok, try sudo apt-get install testdisk
[19:52] <AQLIVE_> and then
[19:53] <EriC^^> sudo testdisk
[19:53] <hexhaxtron> In aptitude how can I deselect all packages containing ':i386'?
[19:54] <cdk_> no i am trying to install a third os from a u8sb but it will not let me boot from usb it just goes too grub and gives a choice of the 2 already installed
[19:54] <AQLIVE_> what shoudl I select here : Please select the partition table type, press Enter when done.
[19:55] <k1l_> cdk_: see in tha hardwares manual what key to press to get a "where to boot from" menue
[19:55] <droppyoppy> cdk_, looks like bois is gooing strait to booting from hard drive. you should reconfigure it
[19:56] <k1l_> cdk_: so if there is he grub, its already to late for boot from usb. so see the manual or bios settings
[19:56] <AQLIVE_> eric how shouild I proceed
[19:57] <xodia_data> hello
[19:58] <ioria> cdk_, can you access the bios setup ?
[19:58] <cdk_> ok i have bios set to boot from usb first but it is just goin to grub
[19:59] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: select Intel
[19:59] <AQLIVE_> and then analyse
[19:59] <AQLIVE_> ?
[19:59] <ioria> cdk_, bad usb ?
[19:59] <EriC^^> no, go to advanced
[19:59] <AQLIVE_> ok
[19:59] <AQLIVE_> and then
[19:59] <ikonia> cdk_: you are not using ubuntu
[19:59] <k1l_> cdk_: then check if the usb is ok to boot from. maybe from another pc or vm
[19:59] <ikonia> please take this to mint
[19:59] <EriC^^> is there a backup bootsector?
[20:00] <AQLIVE_> nope
[20:00] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: or fix MFT or so?
[20:00] <AQLIVE_> HPFS NTFS, E Extended, L Linux swap, X extended, L Linux
[20:01] <AQLIVE_> is what I have
[20:01] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: select the NTFS one
[20:01] <AQLIVE_> ok
[20:01] <MonkeyDust> AQLIVE_  havent followed, what was your initial question?
[20:01] <EriC^^> AQLIVE_: at the bottom does it say Boot?
[20:02] <AQLIVE_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13455538/
[20:02] <EriC^^> MonkeyDust: grub wont pick up windows, upon further inspection can't mount the windows partition, ntfsfix didn't help much
[20:02] <cdk_> i can boot from the usb on other computers
[20:02] <ikonia> cdk_: you are using mint
