[00:00] <Pessimist> I want to create a GUI application on gnu/linux distributions. Which toolkit should I choose? Primarly the target would be Ubuntu. I am thinking about gtk3
[00:01] <Atlantic777> Pessimist: stick with qt.
[00:01] <Viking667> you've pretty much got a choice of qt, gtk3 or something more .... exotic.
[00:01] <Atlantic777> It's way more comfortable than gtk.
[00:02] <Viking667> gtk3 will certainly be supported on Ubuntu, qt however ... good question. If any kde programs are installed, then qt will be.
[00:02] <Atlantic777> Pessimist: feel free to ask me for more info. :)

[00:02] <Josethcortez> asd
[00:02] <kostkon> Pessimist, start from http://developer.ubuntu.com/   ubuntu-sdk could be the right choice
[00:02] <Josethcortez> vengo a presentar una queja
[00:02] <kostkon> Pessimist, it's qt5 based btw
[00:03] <Josethcortez> perdon
[00:03] <Viking667> jose: por favor, hablo Inglese?
[00:04] <Viking667> err, hablar Inglese.
[00:04] <jose> Viking667: do you need help?
[00:04] <kostkon> Viking667, he's left
[00:04] <jose> oh, you were trying to talk to josethcortez
[00:05] <Viking667> oh nuts
[00:05] <TuN> if i want to check how did a process got automatically killed, how can I found out? what would be the error?
[00:06] <eksip> try to run proccess in terminal, usualy it says the error
[00:06] <Atlantic777> Viking667: please, take a look at this
[00:06] <eksip> and the error google
[00:06] <jhutchins> Viking667: I think that might have been Portuguese - there's a !pt factoid.
[00:06] <TuN> eksip, well when I run it, there is no error
[00:06] <TuN> but after 2 seconds
[00:06] <TuN> the process gets killed, and i can't findout what's the error.
[00:07] <jhutchins> TuN: To begin with, launch it in a terminal window.
[00:07] <eksip> jhutchins: and then
[00:07] <eksip> ?
[00:08] <TuN> jhutchins, i am running it in a terminal; doing ./psybnc to run it
[00:09] <eksip> no Tun find the path
[00:09] <TuN> and it runs fine, it does not show any error, even when I do ps x, it shows the process. but after 2 seconds, it gets killed
[00:09] <eksip> to find the path  use this  whereis
[00:10] <TuN> i know the path, i'm running it from the main directory of that psybnc
[00:10] <Atlantic777> http://i.imgur.com/TW8JQPt.jpg
[00:10] <Atlantic777> http://i.imgur.com/Q3lCqti.png
[00:10] <Atlantic777> So it's kind of mirrored...
[00:10] <Atlantic777> And I've already posted xrandr output.
[00:10] <Atlantic777> And one more thing... Can I use all three displays (VGA, HDMI and LVDS) at the same time? I have ATI Radeon HD 6670M
[00:10] <FloodBot1> Atlantic777: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:10] <Atlantic777> If it's not possible, I'm switching back to the intel only.
[00:10] <glitsj16> TuN: not familiar with psybnc, but it might have some command switches to give more verbose error output .. does it have a man page or a --help switch you can check?
[00:10] <eksip> when process stops, there no message in terminal at all?
[00:10] <Viking667> Atlantic777: just having a look now. But next time, try and say more on one line, not over multiple lines, eh?
[00:10] <TuN> yeah no message
[00:11] <eksip> i do not know
[00:11] <TuN> that is the strangest part. it was working alright before I installed oidentd. now when I installed oidentd, it gets killed.
[00:11] <delt> btw the laptop goes to sleep when i close the lid, even if i configured it to do nothing in the xfce settings
[00:12] <Viking667> hm. looks okay, how's it "messed up"?
[00:12] <Viking667> i.e. can you put a window across the two boundaries?
[00:12] <Atlantic777> Viking667: everything should be only on one display.
[00:13] <Viking667> hm. So you actually want one display disabled?
[00:13] <Atlantic777> And in the picture taken with camera there are terminals which are shown on both displays and on different positions.
[00:14] <Atlantic777> No, I want to look it like this: http://i.imgur.com/Q3lCqti.png
[00:15] <Viking667> uhm, do you realise I can't tell the difference between any of the three pictures?
[00:15] <Viking667> they literally all look the same to me.
[00:16] <Beldar> Hydr0p0nX, So it seems strange that the mouse and keyboard are iffy in 13.10, are these 3rd party specific hardware like ms or apple...etc?
[00:16] <Viking667> Ahh, I see. I missed the first picture.
[00:16] <Viking667> my apologies.
[00:16] <Atlantic777> no problem
[00:16] <Viking667> I suspect the offset is .... incorrect.
[00:16] <Atlantic777> The last one link is target, the one taken with camera is the problem and actual situation. :)
[00:16] <Viking667> yeah.
[00:17] <Viking667> I suspect your computer thinks the desktop is 2560 wide, not 3840
[00:17] <Viking667> I'll take another prod at this. Give me a moment.
[00:18] <Atlantic777> and xorg.conf in case you find it helpfull https://paste.lugons.org/show/LJLPP4c3RQ8MoseObGdk/
[00:19] <Viking667> strange. That looks correct.
[00:19] <dolmiogrin> does anyone know why my newish Acer Aspire V5 wont mount/boot Ubuntu to run or even install?  im using a usb i made with unetbottin i d/led the image from ubuntu`s webpage.
[00:20] <dolmiogrin> and im currently running windows 8.1
[00:20] <lickalott> dolmiogrin, UEFI bios.
[00:20] <Viking667> Atlantic777: do me a favour, will you.... shift the terminal about 100 px to the left.
[00:20] <Beldar> !uefi | dolmiogrin
[00:20] <Viking667> and then take a picture for me.
[00:20] <dolmiogrin> thanks alot
[00:21] <Shotz> I've currently got a old BIOS Mobo and I'll be upgrading to an Intel EFI Mobo (currently have an AMD mobo), will I be able to just boot Ubuntu normally or will I need to re-install?
[00:21] <Atlantic777> Viking667: it's tilling wm. I can switch to float mode and shift it. Do you want me to take a picture with camera?  It's hybrid. I forgot you told me that....
[00:21] <lickalott> I would re-install Shotz
[00:21] <Shotz> Oh
[00:22] <Shotz> I've transfered Motherboards on Linux before (installed to a USB key (full install) and numberous mobos worked fine)
[00:22] <lickalott> you're going to have different drivers for the mobo and it will be easier with a fresh install vs trying to figure out what packages/drivers need to be removed and added
[00:22]  * Viking667 should depart...
[00:22] <dolmiogrin> yeah i realized that cheers, i tried to install a few different ios`s and i couldnt get anywhere....ill read up now anywayz
[00:22] <bekks> Shotz: I'd just reinstall grub on UEFI.
[00:22] <dolmiogrin> cheers
[00:22] <Shotz> Ah
[00:23] <Shotz> Is there a special way to do that?
[00:23] <Shotz> Or do I just re-install grub as I would on a normal BIOS/
[00:23] <dolmiogrin> does anyone know if a HTC  Wildfire S will run ubuntu for android?
[00:23] <bekks> Shotz: No, you need to install it for UEFI.
[00:23] <bekks> !grub2 | Shotz
[00:23] <Shotz> Thanks
[00:23] <dolmiogrin> it affects mainly newer pcs
[00:23] <dolmiogrin> laptops
[00:23] <Beldar> !touch | dolmiogrin
[00:24] <Atlantic777> dolmiogrin: if you find it out, let me know. :)
[00:24] <Shotz> I tried Ubuntu Touch of my S3, I then realised I was using a demo OS
[00:24] <dolmiogrin> okay nps
[00:24] <dolmiogrin> thanks once again
[00:29] <eksip> Is ubuntu for smarphone is good idea?  Why to replace android with ubuntu?
[00:29] <lickalott> any particular reason I wouldn't be able to get to my home dir?
[00:29] <lickalott> i can get to pictures, downloads, etc...  just not my home dir
[00:31] <eksip> but applications?  Are application for Android runs on Ubuntu?
[00:31] <arvut> upgrading an old 10.10 to 12.04 without installing unity, possible? I'd like too keep my environment just the way it is, but continue to update it and such. I want no changes to gui or other nonsense that newer ubuntu flavours has produced...
[00:31] <OerHeks> !phone | eksip
[00:31] <OerHeks> lickalott, you need suso to get access outside your home folder
[00:31] <OerHeks> * sudo
[00:33] <glitsj16> arvut: you might go for a minimal iso and install want you want from there
[00:33] <eksip> ! phone

[00:35] <AcidRain2012> anyone know off the top of their head how to disable the teamviewer message saying something like: teamviewer is still running click here to disable this message in the future
[00:35] <AcidRain2012> cause ive clicked the hell outta every area around it and looked in the settings, couldnt find it
[00:40] <Beldar> AcidRain2012, teamviewer is a 3rd party technically not even supported here, ask them.
[00:41] <Balzy> hello! What photo editing software would you suggest me to use as a photoshop replacement?
[00:42] <eksip> em one moment this is easy
[00:42] <Balzy> I know the Gimp is a good one and also krita, already included in kubuntu
[00:43] <eksip> Gimp is the only i know
[00:43] <Balzy> anyway what is the most professional and complete sw?
[00:43] <Balzy> thx :)
[00:44] <Beldar> Balzy, If you have the windows activation I would just dual boot and use photoshop. linux does not really have a exact as good as app.
[00:45] <AcidRain2012> Beldar, we do not promote the cracking/pirating of software here. thx. ;)
[00:45] <crooksey> I have just installed mailutils. How can I make it use postfix now?
[00:45] <Balzy> Beldar I already have a virtual machine for office and that kind of applications without a good linux substitute
[00:46] <Balzy> so you think there's nothing good enough?
[00:46] <Beldar> AcidRain2012, Where did I suggest that should be done?
[00:46] <eksip> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=872469     Balzy
[00:46] <AcidRain2012> u suggested he has a windows activation
[00:47] <AcidRain2012> ur text implied that you knew that he, just like everyone else in here, would not go spend money on something u could get for free
[00:47] <AcidRain2012> :P
[00:47] <Beldar> AcidRain2012, Many here do I have have several, fully purchased legally, you duffus
[00:47] <Balzy> AcidRain2012 exacty, activation that I actually got with a laptop :P
[00:47] <gordonjcp> !u | AcidRain2012
[00:48] <AcidRain2012> lol. sry gordonjcp i almost thought i was on the internet where i can not capitalize the letter "i" also. ;p
[00:48] <Beldar> AcidRain2012, keep your bogus retaliation in your pants sonny. ;)
[00:48] <Balzy> thanks!
[00:48] <AcidRain2012> lol
[00:50] <ccolorado> Hi there, I just installed ubuntu from disk, and I see that the nameserver is google's. Is that hardcoded on the iso or is it someone propagated by the lan  ?
[00:52] <CatJuggler> Hello all.  I'm trying to apt-get libdb-4.8 on 13.10 but the repos with 13.10 only seem to have libdb-5.1.  What's the best way to go about finding and adding a repo with libdb-4.8?
[00:53] <RPG-Master> I'd imagine y'all would just redirect me to #winehq if I have an issue with wine?
[00:53] <erkules> ahoi I found /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd in my saucy installation. Im quite surprised to see it there
[00:53] <RPG-Master> Or can I also ask here?
[00:54] <tiblock> Hi. Where i can read about "font system" in ubuntu? I mean fonts and something like "ClearType" and everything about how fonts work in ubuntu.
[00:54] <Beldar> RPG-Master, wine is supported here to some extent.
[00:54] <RPG-Master> OK, well, here is my demonic recording of claptrap from Borderlands 2: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4072264/Rec_2014-01-03_18.43.55.wav
[00:54] <RPG-Master> This is on Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit and with wine 1.7.9
[00:55] <RPG-Master> Fresh wine prefix, Borderlands 2 installed through wine
[00:55] <Beldar> RPG-Master, However limited to support please, not that.
[00:55] <RPG-Master> *steam
[00:56] <RPG-Master> Beldar: I'm sorry, I should say, that terrible stuttering is my problem, and I'm trying to find a solution to it. The recording is just to illustrate what it's like.
[00:56] <OerHeks> steam tru wine?
[00:57] <Beldar> RPG-Master, Your better describing the issue and noting you have an example, most here are not going to just click any link.
[00:57] <vitimiti> hi o/
[00:58] <egc> why doesn't a global "set -e" apply inside functions in a korn shell script?
[00:58] <egc> anybody know?
[01:04] <delt> how do i change the grub countdown delay?
[01:05] <Seveas> delt: you can set it in /etc/default/grub and then call update-grub
[01:05] <delt> Seveas: ah, thanks
[01:09] <glitsj16> CatJuggler: slim chance of finding a PPA for libdb4.8 i'd say .. but since the libdb4.8 from precise has very few dependencies you could grab the .deb from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libdb4.8 and install it with dpkg or gdebi without getting into trouble (just tried installing it besides libdb5.1 on 13.04 without any problems)
[01:11] <delt> why is mounting nfs slow? it takes several seconds, on slackware it's not even a second
[01:12] <tiblock> I will try again. I don't have problem, i just curious how its work. Where i can read about "font system" in ubuntu? I mean fonts and something like "ClearType" and everything about how fonts work in ubuntu.
[01:13] <Beldar> !fonts
[01:13] <Beldar> tiblock, ^^^^ cleartype is windows not really a linux equal persay.
 Yes. I know. So i want to read what ubuntu uses.
[01:14] <tiblock> Oh, i see URL. Thank you.
[01:14] <Beldar> tiblock, I figured as such, you can tab complete nicks on the irc.
[01:15] <gvo> delt: what version?  V3 or C4?
[01:15] <gvo> sorry v4
[01:15] <kay______> my mouse doesn't work in the live cd install. I am trying to connect to my wifi network and install ubuntu, but I don't know how to do it using only the keyboard.
[01:16] <delt> gvo: just regular nfs, so i guess v3
[01:16] <Beldar> kay______, Any details on this mouse woould help, wireless, bluetooth usb...etc.
[01:16] <gvo> delt: Do you have nfsvers=3 in your fstab?
[01:17] <gvo> delt: if not, it's probably trying v4 and failing before it discovers v3.
[01:17] <delt> gvo: nope... thanks for the tip
[01:17] <daftykins> kay______: you won't need to connect just to install
[01:17] <CiscoNinja> where did the desktop splitter (not sure if its called that) in 13.10 go , where i can split my desktop to four
[01:18] <gvo> delt np
[01:18] <kay______> it's a built in track pad on a gigabye p34g-cf1 laptop
[01:18] <gvo> CiscoNinja: It's called a workspace switcher
[01:18] <delt> gvo: this goes in the column where there's "default"
[01:19] <kay______> the installer seems to suggest I need network access. is it lying?
[01:19] <daftykins> kay______: you'd only need it to update packages whilst installing, so it's not necessary no
[01:19] <daftykins> kay______: it does affect timezone and mirror choice too
[01:20] <CiscoNinja> gvo, is there a way i can split my desktop into two halfs?
[01:20] <gvo> delt: last param on mine is rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr,nfsvers=3
[01:20] <Beldar> kay______, Is there an on or off key set or switch for the tap pad I see nothing on the web addressing this issue.
[01:20] <delt> gvo: ah, thanks very much kind sir
[01:21] <delt> gvo: can i specify that directly on the commandline also?
[01:21] <kay______> when i boot into x86 ubuntu it works, windows it works, amd64 ubuntu it doesn't work.
[01:21] <delt> should be?
[01:21] <gvo> CiscoNinja: Do you mean have 4 separate windows on the screen at the same time?
[01:21] <gvo> delt: I don't recall the exact format of the mount command.  Try man mount.
[01:22] <gvo> delt: I think it might be "-o"
[01:22] <Beldar> kay______, Should work, have you checked the sum of the iso, or tried several bots to see if an anomaly?
[01:22] <CiscoNinja> gvo, yes, but only two not four, sorry
[01:22] <Beldar> boots*
[01:22] <pomke> Hello, just installed 13.04 on my new computer, I reused my old graphics card,an Nvidia GTX 560ti. Unity out of the box is horribly slow so I installed nvidia-current, which was nvidia_304, when I 'modprobe nvidia' however I get ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia_304': No such device
[01:23] <gvo> CiscoNinja: OK That's not what I thought you wanted.  Sorry, the switcher isn't what you were talking about.  I think that's a Unity thing and I don't do Unity
[01:23] <Beldar> pomke, Have you checked what is running or just assumed it is the graphic driver?
[01:23] <pomke> There is no 3d accel
[01:24] <pomke> Beldar: what would you suggest I check for? I'ts a fresh out of the box install
[01:24] <Beldar> pomke, I'm not up on 3d acel, but just installing htop and running htop in the cli will give you what is running and cpu gpu usage.
[01:25] <pomke> I know what htop is, thanks :) specifically I'm after some help getting nvidia drivers working
[01:26] <kay______> ok i will check md5sum
[01:27] <Beldar> pomke, Sure, I would work from the bottom up making sure you have no big memory usage.... etc is all.
[01:28] <pomke> KiB Mem:  16319264 total,  3021776 used, 13297488 free,   154372 buffers
[01:28] <pomke> ^ seems ok?
[01:28] <kay______> this is a dumb question but i am downloading via website and they have a dynamic download that redirects my browser. how do i get md5sum? i am looking on ftp.ubuntu.com
[01:29] <rww> !md5sums
[01:33] <TheMadcapper> Trying to install Ubuntu on one of these:  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00387088
[01:33] <TheMadcapper> But I keep getting "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted."
[01:33] <TheMadcapper> Durring the boot up from disc
[01:33] <TheMadcapper> *During
[01:33] <TheMadcapper> I tried 64 bit and 32
[01:34] <TheMadcapper> (went to 32 after I realized it had less than 2gb ram)
[01:37] <spearhead> CiscoNinja: Can you describe better what you are trying to do? what you could do before and in what version of ubuntu it last worked in?
[01:39] <delt> what's that speaker drop-down menu that's always empty, even when stuff is playing audio? (xubuntu)
[01:40] <delt> (in the top panel)
[01:41] <kay______> near the end of the install, I get "unable to install grub in /dev/sda" this is a fatal error
[01:42] <kay______> my md5sum is correct
[01:42] <delt> how do i prepend /usr/scripts to the system-wide path? i want files in this directory to have priority (as in, to make wrapper scripts etc)
[01:43] <delt> i want to change the path not just in terminal windows, but also for, say alt+F2 box and such
[01:43] <rww> delt: why not put them in /usr/local/bin?
[01:43] <delt> what if there's already a file i want to "wrap" with a script there?
[01:44] <rww> /usr/local/bin/ is for local administrator use. If you want to mess with something there, just mess with it...
[01:45] <delt> hmm..... let's say :/
[01:45] <Pessimist> how do you install ubuntu sdk / qt5 creator & libs on ubuntu 12.04 ?
[01:45] <delt> rww: but where is the default system-wide path defined?
[01:47] <delt> rww: if i compile stuff from source, good chances are the binaries will end up in /usr/local/bin ....if possible, i'd like my shell scripts to be in a separate directory
[01:48] <rww> delt: /etc/profile, I think
[01:48] <bjornemannen> hello
[01:48] <rww> delt: should be a line starting with PATH=, it's colon-separated
[01:48] <bjornemannen> what program should i use to conneced my iphone to ubuntu?
[01:50] <bjornemannen> is there any one here?
[01:51] <glitsj16> delt: about the speaker drop-down menu, running xubuntu 13.10 by any chance?
[01:51] <delt> yeah
[01:51] <delt> pulseaudio thing?
[01:51] <schone> hello
[01:51] <Beldar> bjornemannen, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone try to give it more than 2 min eh.
[01:52] <glitsj16> delt: that's a known bug, look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2182038&p=12822062#post12822062 for an easy fix
[01:52] <bjornemannen> thanks Beldar
[01:52] <schone> is there an easy way to make a bootable ubuntu instance on a USB stick with persistent storage that will work on a macbook?
[01:52] <Beldar> bjornemannen, That shows 12.04 you might try a search with your release if different, no problem.
[01:53] <delt> glitsj16: thanks
[01:53] <glitsj16> delt: you're welcome, about the shell scripts .. do they have to be available system-wide?
[01:56] <delt> glitsj16: preferably
[01:56] <delt> glitsj16: actually on my slackware machines i prepend $HOME/scripts:/usr/scripts to the path
[01:57] <kay______> is there an alternate ubuntu iso for 13.10
[01:57] <kay______> or just 12.04.3 LTS
[01:57] <glitsj16> delt: you can easily place those in your ~/bin too, that directory gets automatically prepended to the PATH if it exists
[01:57] <ianorlin> kay not for ubuntu with unity
[01:57] <rww> kay______: no, http://askubuntu.com/questions/207635/why-are-there-no-alternate-cds
[01:58] <glitsj16> delt: or prepend to the system-wide PATH in /etc/environment
[01:59] <unicornjedi> hello, I have a problem with apt-get. (-5 - No address associated with hostname)

[02:02] <delt> glitsj16: oh yeah it does, you're right'
[02:03] <unicornjedi> Beldar, btw im using ubuntu server
[02:03] <Milapurr> nope, beldar it was dded over from my external, i dont understand how to install grub2 onto it either
[02:03] <Beldar> !grub | Milapurr
[02:04] <Beldar> Milapurr, This a dualboot, and if so with what exactly?
[02:04] <Milapurr> its not a dual boot, its hard to explain really
[02:05] <unicornjedi> Beldar, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6688370/
[02:05] <Milapurr> let me load into the working copy and stop using this iphone app
[02:05] <unicornjedi> Beldar, the error went away.. this is strange...
[02:05] <Beldar> Milapurr, Heh, well it may take you doing so at some point the bootrepair app may get you fixed though.
[02:05] <unicornjedi> Beldar, before I got this error W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-updates/universe/i18n/Translation-en_US  Something wicked happened resolving 'us.archive.ubuntu.com:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname)
[02:06] <luc_> anyone knows a hardning tutorial????????
[02:06] <luc_> hardening?
[02:06] <utusan> google it
[02:06] <mila_> Beldar: Let me explain, I have a copy of ubuntu on my external thumbdrive. Someone said I could use DD to move that to my internal harddrive (I formatted it, now it's ext4) Gparted doesnt show me what's on it at all.
[02:07] <Beldar> unicornjedi, You have precise and lucid hits there though that is not really normal.
[02:07] <hipitihop> I'm on 12.04.3 and today's update which included new kernel now boots to black screen with flashing cursor. Can someone help diagnose issue pls .. some googling suggests to remove lightdm and install gdm instead
[02:07] <unicornjedi> Beldar, i'll check out my sources.list
[02:07] <Beldar> mila_, was the usb a full install?
[02:08] <mila_> USB has Ubuntu installed on it.
[02:08] <Beldar> mila_, a full install, or a iso loaded?
[02:08] <mila_> Usb also has 10 gb used and I didnt want to lose it
[02:08] <mila_> ...Its a full install I believe.
[02:08] <unicornjedi> Beldar, yea, I unintentionally removed the # before the lucid universe packages
[02:09] <Beldar> mila_, Cool, if a full install you are just missing the grub stuff in the mbr if you are on a msdos setup, the bootrepair app should fix this.
[02:09] <luc_> any news about mir ? ??? ? ? ?
[02:09] <Beldar> !mir
[02:10] <mila_> Beldar: the hard drive has nothing actually on it the only thing on it is recovery and dellutilities dev/sda1 and 2. 3 has ubuntu
[02:10] <Craig|> Anyone know if there still is a osx channel on freenode
[02:11] <Craig|> I know this is Ubuntu
 thx
[02:11] <mila_> Im not sure how to really go about fixing this...
[02:11] <Beldar> mila_, Cool, you probably want a swap, I would put it inside a extended, so you have room for more logical partitions if needed. I assume your partition amounts are correct here.
[02:12] <bjornemannen> Beldar:  when i have the latest IOS in my iphone i cant connect it ?!
[02:12] <Beldar> bjornemannen, I have never had a iphone probably few here, the web might be your search try askubuntu.
[02:13] <bjornemannen> ok thanks
[02:13] <glitsj16> !alis | Craig| .. try looking for osx
[02:13] <Beldar> mila_, From a live cd use this tool to get grub loaded. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[02:13] <anton02> how do you set up a samba4 share in ubuntu 13.10?
[02:13] <mila_> How do I create a swap
[02:13] <Craig|> Most likely there is some iTunes alternative for Ubuntu or wine it
[02:14] <mila_> my sda is from 1 - 7 one is a linux-swap
[02:14] <Beldar> mila_, I use gparted you could do kit from a live cd or once you get booted in install gparted and do it from there, feel free to ask the channel, when you get ready though
[02:15] <js_doode> i have an old laptop: thinkpad a30, I'd like to do some command line dev testing. rather than learn a new distro. was thinking, can I do an ubuntu minimal install and just have the barebones, including a less resource-intensive windows manager?
[02:15] <js_doode> was running lubuntu on it and it kept locking up
[02:15] <Beldar> mila_, Is this a computer that had W8 on it a uefi?
[02:15] <mila_> ?
[02:15] <js_doode> definitely because it was resource-intensive at least for this laptop.
[02:16] <mila_> no it had windows 7
[02:16] <mila_> and its saying the hard drive is busy now?
[02:16] <Beldar> mila_, "<mila_> my sda is from 1 - 7 one is a linux-swap" can you explain exactly what this means, you mentioned only 3 partitions so far.
[02:16] <mila_> yeah.
[02:17] <peyam> js_doode, try Arch
[02:17] <peyam> without gui! if it's what do want
[02:18] <peyam> js_doode, but I never tried it before
[02:18] <Beldar> mila_, question marks and sigke word answers are not helpfull be specific please. State exactly what you do not understand and answer questions fully.
[02:18] <gordonjcp> js_doode: yes, just install the minimal iso
[02:18] <Beldar> single*
[02:18] <gordonjcp> js_doode: it'll give you a basic bootable command-line system
[02:18] <mila_> sda1 fat 16 dell utility Flags: Diagnostic, Unallocated, sda2: recovery nfts flag: boot, sda4 extended, sda5 ext4, sda6linux swap, sda7 ext4, unallocated 911.88 (Deleted ubuntu that was dded over)
[02:18] <gordonjcp> js_doode: as peyam says, you could give Arch a shot, but I ended up switching back to Ubuntu because Arch spent most if its time broken
[02:19] <gordonjcp> *of
[02:19] <Beldar> mila_, Looks like a uefi set up
[02:19] <mila_> uefi?
[02:19] <Beldar> !uefi | mila_ look here for info.
[02:19] <rww> that is not a GPT setup, which is presumably what you mean
[02:19] <js_doode> gordonjcp: i'd love to, but it has a high learning curve.
[02:19] <peyam> mila_, can you say again what ur problem was. didn't get it
[02:19] <js_doode> i'd rather get to the coding than learn a new distro.
[02:19] <Beldar> rww, Hard to tell with the user not giving any real answers.
[02:19] <mila_> I dded over s ubuntu install and I cant boot into it.
[02:19] <js_doode> if i have time i guess i'll have to look into it.
[02:20] <js_doode> thanks guys.
[02:20] <rww> Beldar: not hard at all, GPT doesn't have extended partitions
[02:20] <peyam> mila_, you dded on ur partition on ur harddisk? if so, it would not work! it will say the hdd is busy!
[02:20] <Beldar> rww, I'm hesitant to believe exactly what they post to be honest.
[02:20] <rww> mila_: to create a swap filesystem given an existing swap partition, sudo mkswap /dev/sda6 (for example)
[02:20] <mila_> oh. okay
[02:21] <delt> how can i remap the left windowz button to alt_l?
[02:21] <peyam> I tried it once with debian and it didn't work, so if debian not works no other distro will
[02:21] <mila_> It now has a swa...
[02:21] <mila_> uh.
[02:21] <delt> xmodmap doesn't seem to be doing the trick :(
[02:21] <mila_> sda3 is now 911 gb of swap
[02:21] <mila_> o-o;
[02:21] <Beldar> heh
[02:22] <mila_> I need another partition under it dont I?
[02:22] <mila_> oops.
[02:22] <mila_> i deleted the entire thing
[02:22] <peyam> rww, what is mila_ s problem?
[02:22] <mila_> well there goes recovery and dell disk utility.
[02:22] <mila_> oops.
[02:23] <rww> peyam: they asked how to create a swap. i told them *shrug*
[02:23] <mila_> i wanna dd over my copy of ubuntu to my internal hard drive, Im running ubuntu from a thumbdrive
[02:23] <Edler> hey guys
[02:23] <Edler> i tried installing vsftpd
[02:23] <Edler> and enabled chroot
[02:23] <Edler> yet when i login i get 530 login incorrect
[02:24] <peyam> mila_, what is ut final destination? u wana install ubuntu or what?
[02:24] <catalase_> can anyone compile a module for me and give me the .so file--my machine is refusing to compile mod_proxy_html.c lol
[02:24] <mila_> I wanna install ubuntu to this internal hard drive, but I want whats on my thumbdrive on the hard drive
[02:24] <mila_> TLDR: I dont wanna lose my thumbdrive stuff
[02:25] <peyam> what is athumbdrive. i really need to improve my english
[02:25] <rww> so install Ubuntu and then copy it over?
[02:25] <rww> peyam: USB stick
[02:25] <peyam> mila_, so what is wrong during installation?
[02:25] <mila_> im using dd to copy my usb stick to an empty hard drive thats formatted to ext4
[02:25] <peyam> mila_, don't panik now!
[02:26] <peyam> mila_, and?
[02:26] <delt> mila_: that will create an image file of the whole filesystem that's on the usb stick
[02:26] <mila_> ...does that mean it wont boot into it?
[02:26] <delt> ...um, depends what you're trying to do
[02:26] <peyam> mila_, if u have bootable usb stick of ubuntu then just install ir like you do in normal cases
[02:27] <glitsj16> catalase_: any particular reason you don't use the libapache2-mod-proxy-html from the repos?
[02:27] <mila_> its not a bootable, it's actually ubuntu on a usb stick.
[02:27] <peyam> so how can it be boot if its not?
[02:27] <mila_> it's bootable but it's not an iso
[02:28] <mila_> i really wish procast would work on here so I could explain better.
[02:28] <catalase_> glitsj16, i don't have it i believe
[02:28] <peyam> mila_, you have a ubuntu on ur mechin and u have a ubuntu on usb and u want to override everything by ur usb?
[02:28] <mila_> I have nothing on tha machine and ubuntu on the usb
[02:28] <catalase_> i need the .so and lib for this package http://apache.webthing.com/mod_proxy_html/mod_proxy_html.tar.bz2
[02:29] <peyam> the ubuntu u have on ur  usb is it downloaded from ubuntu website?
[02:29] <glitsj16> catalase_: check with apt-cache policy libapache2-mod-proxy-html .. btw, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[02:29] <catalase_> 12.04 server
[02:29] <catalase_> no idea what apt-cache policy is lol
[02:29] <hipitihop> miy  kernel.log shows:  "NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 304.108, but this kernel module has the version 304.88" which coincides with my xorg log message  "failed  to initialize the NVIDIA kernel model" can someone help me resolve pls
[02:29] <anton02> how do you set up a samba4 share in ubuntu 13.10?
[02:30] <peyam> rww, u u u u u ur awesome, ur a good boy
[02:30] <mila_> to be honest this is super confusing and confusing me... I just wanna copy whats on my usb to the hard disk so I can use the hard disk instead of my usb.
[02:30] <peyam> mila_, message me in private
[02:30] <peyam> mila_, i can help u out
[02:30] <rww> !msg
[02:31] <peyam> rww, it's confusing when many help him out. if u wana help him go on but i cant concentrate
[02:32] <Edler> guys can anyone help ?
[02:32] <Edler> can't make vsftpd 2.3.5 work with chroot local usres
[02:32] <Edler> users
[02:33] <glitsj16> catalase_: apt-cache policy is (one) way of finding out if you have a certain package in your sources, and it tells you version, if installed etc
[02:34] <hipitihop> How can I reconfigure my NVIDIA  setup so that client and  kernel modules match
[02:35] <glitsj16> catalase_: libapache2-mod-proxy-html is available on precise
[02:36] <catalase_> ok
[02:38] <pomke> In 13.04 (fresh install) I launch Software & Updates, goto 'Additional Drivers' and it says 'No additional drivers available'.. yet if I lspci I clearly see 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti]  is present. Does Ubuntu not support this very common card ?
[02:39] <glitsj16> hipitihop: can you elaborate a bit on what you mean by nvidia client?
[02:39] <delt> nice that xubuntu's default UID is the same as slackware, so all my stuff stays consistent across machines :D :D
[02:40] <spok> Hi, I want to install Ubuntu Touch on my Nexus 4. The question for me is: when it will be not only "for developers and industry partners only"?
[02:40] <Beldar> !touch | spok
[02:40] <delt> !spok touch
[02:40] <delt> haha
[02:40] <delt> 21:40 <ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about spok touch
[02:40] <hipitihop> glitsj16, kernel.log shows:  "NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 304.108, but this kernel module has the version 304.88" which coincides with my xorg log message  "failed  to initialize the NVIDIA kernel model"
[02:41] <hipitihop> glitsj16, machine boots to black screen and blinking cursor but has tty1,2 etc
[02:42] <glitsj16> hipitihop: what nvidia package did you install? and what version of ubuntu are you seeing this error on?
[02:42] <hipitihop> glitsj16, machine worked fine until this mornings update which included new kernel etc. have tried grub to previous kernel boot but no better
[02:42] <Beldar> hipitihop, Have you tried a failsafe x or nomodeset boot
[02:43] <hipitihop> glitsj16, 12.04.3
[02:43] <hipitihop> Beldar, is failsafe available from grub menu ?
[02:44] <Beldar> hipitihop, Yes in the recovery menu
[02:44]  * hipitihop reboots an loooks in grub  menus
[02:44] <glitsj16> hipitihop: probably your dkms is not able to build the nvidia module for the new kernel, i suspect that earlier error is related ..
[02:45] <glitsj16> hipitihop: i'd try to purge all nvidia packages you have and reinstall nvidia-current .. but follow Beldar's advice i'd say and look at the logs first
[02:49] <YaMoonSun> I installed Lubuntu 13.10 on a dell dimension 8250 and I get an error on boot up - Is it due to the swap being first on the drive and labeled as primary? Should it be at the end of drive and logical?
[02:50] <hipitihop> Beldar, failsafex also seems to end in blinking cursor, last messages are from mountall
[02:51] <wellygton> ola galera

[02:51] <DynamicDesignz> Is it possible to ARP poison a remote address like a website with ettercap?
[02:52] <kostkon> !pt | wellygton
[02:52] <hipitihop> Beldar, how do I try the nomodeset boot ?
[02:52] <TheMadcapper> Trying to boot off an Ubuntu install disc on one of these old systems:  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00387088
[02:52] <TheMadcapper> But I keep getting "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted." shortly after boot.  :\
[02:52] <Beldar> hipitihop, I know very little about nvidia, my effort was just desktop access
[02:52] <hipitihop> Beldar, ok thanks
[02:52] <Beldar> !nomodeset | hipitihop if needed
[02:54] <YaMoonSun> Anyone..?
[02:54] <kostkon> !anyone | YaMoonSun
[02:54] <kostkon> wrong factoid
[02:55] <kostkon> !patience | YaMoonSun
[02:55] <hipitihop> glitsj16, could you pls step me  through purge and reinstall of current
[02:55] <apb1963> Random Fun fact:  Printers can be managed through a web interface at localhost:631/admin
[02:55] <YaMoonSun> Everyone is afk huh?
[02:56] <TheMadcapper> The system boots XP just fine
[02:56] <TheMadcapper> Not sure why "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted." would be happening
[02:56] <TheMadcapper> Unless.....
[02:56] <glitsj16> hipitihop: i'll try .. is this the machine you're irc'ing from? just need to be sure we can communicate if you can get into recovery mode
[02:57] <sander__> How do I check which apt package a given file is located in?
[02:58] <hipitihop> glitsj16, no irc on another laptop, only thing available to me on victim machine is tty 1,2 etc i.e. I can login after <alt><F1>
[02:59] <Beldar> YaMoonSun, what is the error, and can you get to the desktop?
[03:00] <glitsj16> hipitihop: if you can login you'll need to make sure you have network access to be able to install nvidia-current .. if you do try a "sudo apt-get purge nvidia-*" first, after that "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" and reboot to check again
[03:01] <glitsj16> hipitihop: you can always run a "sudo dkms status" before doing those and do another after to compare what's happening
[03:02] <TheMadcapper> Nope.  Nevermind.  I have no idea why it's doing this.  :\
[03:02] <TheMadcapper> Google doesn't seem to be of any help, either.
[03:03] <hipitihop> glitsj16, network access confirmed...
[03:03] <glitsj16> hipitihop: the different numbers in your error are a bit weird though, i can't find anything in regular precise repos for nvidia with the 304.108 as version # .. do you use any PPA's?
[03:03] <glitsj16> i mean PPA's for nvidia
[03:04] <hipitihop> glitsj16, I don't believe I do
[03:06] <Hydr0p0nX> looks like a release for saucy
[03:06] <glitsj16> hipitihop: i believe you, but better make sure :) .. have a look around in your /etc/apt/sources.list.d for anything like xorg-edgers or x-swat
[03:06] <hipitihop> glitsj16, standby will try and pastebin output of dkms status
[03:07] <glitsj16> sure
[03:07] <hipitihop> glitsj16, is there a cli pastebin tool ?
[03:07] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> hi everybody
[03:07] <glitsj16> hipitihop: pastebinit
[03:07] <glitsj16> hipitihop: you might need to install that
[03:08] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> i have a ubuntu question....
[03:08] <willbradley> just ask, don't ask to ask
[03:08] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> is it possible to run windows in linux vertual box successfully?
[03:08] <Beldar> then get to it
[03:08] <willbradley> yes
[03:08] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> eg i have a tv capture card... will that work in windows in linux?
[03:09] <willbradley> probably not
[03:09] <delt> the regular ubuntu uses KDE right?
[03:09] <willbradley> but you can try
[03:09] <delt> ..no wait that's kubuntu
[03:09] <willbradley> delt: no, ubuntu now uses unity
[03:09] <delt> willbradley: ah. unity replaced.... gnome i think?
[03:09] <willbradley> yup
[03:10] <kostkon> delt, soon-to-be qt-based with unity8
[03:10] <Beldar> delt, Not exactly gnome 3 is there with compiz and unity ans a plugin in compiz
[03:10] <hipitihop> glitsj16, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6688628/
[03:11] <delt> ah, i see
[03:12] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> sorry i lost connection
[03:12] <glitsj16> hipitihop: quite the amoubt of kernels lol
[03:12] <hipitihop> glitsj16, odd the 304.108 is listed only on some kernels
[03:12] <glitsj16> hipitihop: i noticed that yes
[03:13] <glitsj16> hipitihop: try to remove the nvidia-304-updates, sudo apt-get purge nvidia-304-updates first
[03:13] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> i have a question regarding vitural box and vmware.....\
[03:13] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> eg i have a tv capture card... will that work in windows in linux?
[03:13] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> is it possible to run windows in linux vertual box successfully?
[03:13] <hipitihop> glitsj16, I tried -34 with same result earlier, but I might try -33 as it does not list the same update ?
[03:14] <glitsj16> hipitihop: confirmed, you could try that
[03:14] <Beldar> Angel_Of_Sorrow, You are asking the same questions, yes windows will run in a virtual, the tv thing you will have to test.
[03:14] <willbradley> Angel_Of_Sorrow: you can try but it's probably going to be difficult. in some virtual machine hosts you can connect a VM to a PCI device but i'm not sure about virtualbox.
[03:15] <bn`> Why is my VirtualHost in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf being ignored by Ubuntu 13.10?
[03:15] <glitsj16> hipitihop: i just need a minute or 2 to get something from the fridge, i'll be here ok
[03:16] <enen92> hey everyone
[03:17] <enen92> can u tell me if there is a problem with ubuntu repositories today?
[03:17] <willbradley> bn`: do an ls -al /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
[03:17] <Beldar> enen92, none here and be specific with your problem.
[03:17] <bn`> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   35 Jan  1 17:56 000-default.conf -> ../sites-available/000-default.conf
[03:17] <enen92> can't update my package list
[03:18] <enen92> nor authenticate some packages
[03:18] <enen92> trying to connect to pt.archive.ubuntu.com
[03:19] <Beldar> enen92, might help to run sudo apt-get update and pastebin it.
[03:19] <hipitihop> glitsj16, np... boot with -33 still leaves me in black screen. will try purge the update now
[03:20] <willbradley> bn`: in your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf is there a line that says Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
[03:20] <bn`> it seems to have problems with the domain names after VirtualHost
[03:20] <enen92> Beldar, if I'm thinking correctly I should be able to open (pt.archive.ubuntu.com) in my browser right?
[03:20] <bn`> IncludeOptional sites-enabled/*.conf
[03:21] <bn`> what does optional mean here
[03:21] <bn`> changed it to Include, but the problem persists
[03:21] <doms> is there a offical channel for linux mint here or not?
[03:22] <willbradley> bn`: no idea, sounds 13.10 specific because my 12.04 and 13.04 don't have IncludeOptional
[03:22] <bn`> it does not want domainnames in <VirtualHost...>
[03:22] <bn`> <VirtualHost *:80> works
[03:23] <Beldar> enen92, might be your server connect, on occasion servers are down though. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1843540
[03:23] <ckknight> squid web proxy user with ip traffic monitoring, anyone? SARG only reflect one either ip/user but I want both ip and user will reflect.
[03:23] <willbradley> bn`: don't you want ServerName
[03:23] <Beldar> enen92, I think it is the pt having a problem though.
[03:24] <enen92> yeap that's why I asked it in the first place
[03:24] <bn`> willbradley: oh wow, that worked, thx
[03:24] <enen92> so I'll read a bit about a way to deal with it
[03:24] <enen92> tks for the help
[03:24] <Beldar> enen92, Hardly had to prompt you at the least.
[03:24] <bn`> but they must have changed that. <VirtualHost ...> worked before with domain names as I remember
[03:25] <hipitihop> glitsj16, purged and rebooted and we're back to functioning X !! you're a star
[03:25] <willbradley> bn`: what do you mean "domain names"? paste your 000-default.conf into a gist.github.com
[03:26] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> hi Im searching for a visualstudio.net topic channel that has is populated...anyone have any suggestions?

[03:27] <willbradley> oh that's odd
[03:27] <willbradley> usually that part is for IPs only
[03:27] <bn`> I used to configure apache like that. Now they disabled it I guess
[03:27] <glitsj16> hipitihop: well that worked out positively :)
[03:27] <bn`> ok yes ServerName is much better
[03:27] <willbradley> you can do multiple servername directives as well
[03:27] <willbradley> for www/etc
[03:27] <hipitihop> glitsj16, indeed ... I wonder where that came from, looking now
[03:28] <glitsj16> hipitihop: you do have quite a few kernels in there .. perhaps a small cleaning out job to start the new year lol, but that's entirely up to you to judge
[03:29] <bn`> willbradley: good to know
[03:29] <hipitihop> glitsj16, indeed, have not realised as I rarely reboot and when I do I don't see the grub menu :-)
[03:30] <hipitihop> glitsj16, thanks so much for chiming in and helping .. phew good to get the machine back, it's my main dev box so don't need dramas
[03:30] <glitsj16> hipitihop: that happens yes, not needed though if you have the space for those
[03:30] <willbradley> bn`: here's my cheat sheet / tutorial: http://willbradley.name/2011/07/lamp-a-primer-on-linux-apache-mysql-and-php/
[03:31] <glitsj16> hipitihop: very welcome, i don't need drama either heh, enjoy the machine
[03:31] <hipitihop> cheers
[03:31] <willbradley> bn`: sorry i lied, multiple servername's aren't allowed but http://willbradley.name/2011/07/lamp-a-primer-on-linux-apache-mysql-and-php/ is
[03:31] <willbradley> err
[03:31] <willbradley> ServerAlias is
[03:32] <delt>
[03:32] <hipitihop> glitsj16, I wish solving my resolution issue on another machine connected via  hdmi -> onkyo -> lg tv was that easy :-)
[03:32] <bn`> ServerAlias, sure
[03:32] <scipy53> I'm recording my screen for a video, and would like my mouse cursor to be extra large. Is this possible? To record, I'm using simplescreenrecorder. Thanks!!
[03:33] <delt> ..... jackd1 or jackd2/
[03:33] <delt> ..... jackd1 or jackd2?
[03:33] <delt> oops
[03:33] <glitsj16> hipitihop: i hear you, what's going wrong on the resolution front?
[03:34] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> does ubuntu come with unity as its default interface?
[03:34] <rww> yes
[03:34] <delt> Angel_Of_Sorrow: yes, i just learned that today!
[03:34] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> dodgy
[03:34] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> why would they do that
[03:34] <delt> ....so, should i install package jack1 or jack2?
[03:34] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> ?
[03:36] <hipitihop> glitsj16, struggling to diagnose properly, if htpc (ubuntu 12.04 mythtv) -> LG , all is fine and runs @ 1360x768 (I think the lg native is actually 1366x768) either way all is fine... but when go through onkyo, tv shows "no signal", suspecting onkyo is outputing wrong res or refresh or somesuch
[03:36] <willbradley> btw i made a ping utility that sits in the ubuntu taskbar for those of us on crappy wifi: https://github.com/zyphlar/pinger
[03:36] <dolmiogrin> hey all, iv been trying to install ubuntu on a new acer win 8.1 machine  and im having trrouble disabling secure boot in my bios... any cxlues to why i cant deactivate it?
[03:36] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> yeah last time i checked (around 2010) unity was the gui....i was hoping it would have been un popular with the users..its a pitty they havent reverted it back to the standard gnome
[03:37] <Stormer97> I'm not really sure what the appropriet channel would be, but I wanted to know if anyone has experience with buying third-party batteries for thinkpad laptops?
[03:37] <willbradley> Angel_Of_Sorrow: go with xubuntu
[03:37] <dolmiogrin> btw im following this guideL  http://askubuntu.com/questions/221835/installing-ubuntu-on-a-pre-installed-windows-8-64-bit-system-uefi-supported
[03:37] <willbradley> Stormer97: third-party batteries are bad times. not recommended
[03:37] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> willbradley....whats the deal with xubuntu?
[03:37] <glitsj16> hipitihop: not that i'm any good with diagnosing that .. have you tried using xrandr and look at Xorg.0.log ?
[03:38] <willbradley> Angel_Of_Sorrow: uses xfce, lightweight
[03:38] <Stormer97> aye, but I cannot afford 180$ for a lenovo battery
[03:38] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> isn that the educational edition?
[03:38] <willbradley> Stormer97: then you'll probably end up spending double that when the 3rd party battery fails in 6-12 months :P
[03:38] <willbradley> Angel_Of_Sorrow: nope, just uses xfce instead of unity/gnome/kde
[03:39] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> i might just stick with OpenSuse
[03:39] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> thanks for the assistance all
[03:40] <hipitihop> glitsj16, yes starting playing the other day, although xrander seems to suggest current mode is same whichever is plugged in i.e. 1360x768
[03:40] <Stormer97> well, I just got this T61, so im going to go back to the shop I bought it from and either get a new battery, or get a refund. If I could get a replacment battery for under 50$, I would do that, but for another 180$, I could get a much better laptop to begin with.
[03:40] <dolmiogrin> this----->Your system has UEFI activated (And can not be disabled) with Secure Boot.  i think i need to disable this to install yeah?
[03:42] <glitsj16> hipitihop: this is the first time i hear 'onkyo' .. sorry i can't be of much help on this one
[03:42] <hipitihop> glitsj16, np, thanks for sorting other issue
[03:43] <glitsj16> hipitihop: sooner or later someone will pop up .. irc has its place but you might post something on the forums for that issue
[03:44] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> i have a question about installing ubuntu along side my current windows 7 installation....
[03:44] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> how's this done?
[03:44] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> do i have to uninstall windows 7?
[03:44] <glitsj16> hipitihop: in here it's all about who's present and looking, quite random in that respect

[03:45] <docmur> I'm running 13.10 and I just installed libssl-dev.  When I try to run my ssl client /servert project, which works on 12.10 I get:  http://pastebin.com/rbDQkpR5  from the server, and the client quits.  This might be better asked in the openssl chanel but figured I would ask here first.
[03:46] <willbradley> Angel_Of_Sorrow: no, if you have win7 installed ubuntu will ask you what you want to do, dual boot is an option in most linux installers
[03:47] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> what options does it offer willbradley
[03:47] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> ?
[03:47] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> ask me what?
[03:47] <docmur> The program compiles fine in 13.10 with out warnings
[03:49] <willbradley> Angel_Of_Sorrow: ubuntu installers will provide you the option of installing dual-boot or overwriting windows
[03:50] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> sweet. will it require swap partition etc?
[03:51] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> or is it all automated these days>?|
[03:54] <wyominggeezer> Now installing 12.04 over 11?? - wish me luck! (please)
[03:55] <jirido> Helo. is there a working mouse emulator for any of the usual brain-computor interfaces like mindwave , emotiv's epoc etc
[04:03] <Siecje> Can you use startup disk creator to put any iso on a USB drive? or only Ubuntu
[04:08] <glitsj16> Siecje: looks like it's Ubuntu/Debian based os only --> https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/usb-creator-gtk/
[04:08] <FourFire> Hello, can I have advice on a wireless card?
[04:08] <FourFire> Intel AC 7260 is it good or bad?
[04:10] <FourFire> ok I got my answer, apparently its a pretty good wireless card
[04:13] <Dw3> Hello every1
[04:20] <anton02> i installed ubuntu to an xfs partition, /efi directory was auto set to windows 8's efi partition. bootloader was set to /dev/sda. When i start i only get grub prompt
[04:20] <Dw3> Im trying to access some photos in my external HD, in the terminal i get the error bash: cd: Local: No such file or directory
[04:21] <anton02> it's 40 degrees celcius here
[04:21] <anton02> right at this very moment
[04:21] <anton02> you cant use aircon here cause power is too expensive
[04:21] <Dw3> its 19 degrees here
[04:21] <anton02> my computer cpu is running at 7 degrees above ambient
[04:32] <Siecje> I just formatted my USB using disk utility and I put it in another ubuntu machine and it says I don't have permission to access it
[04:34] <iampoz> hi guys, so I have this problem...
[04:34] <iampoz> I have a nvidia graphics card
[04:35] <iampoz> GT 230M somthing like that
[04:35] <iampoz> umm, driver is... one sec let me find it
[04:36] <Beldar> Siecje, What is it? the usb or upon booting the usb the installed ubuntu, and what exactly are you trying to get at or do?
[04:36] <anton02> when installing UEFI ubuntu, do you set bootloader location as /dev/sda or /dev/sda1 (EFI partition)
[04:36] <Siecje> Beldar: I would like to put an openSUSE iso on it
[04:36] <Siecje> bootable so I can install it
[04:36] <anton02> when installing UEFI ubuntu, do you set bootloader location as /dev/sda or /dev/sda1 (EFI partition)
[04:37] <iampoz> Nvidia 331
[04:37] <ianorlin> !patience
[04:37] <iampoz> The driver is Nvidia 331.
[04:38] <iampoz> It is not one of the options available in the additional drivers dialog box becuase I needed the most current version to play a gam
[04:38] <iampoz> e
[04:38] <iampoz> game*
[04:38] <pikaren> where do i put x:3:respawn:/path/to/my/program in ubuntu?
[04:38] <pikaren> there's no /etc/inittab
[04:38] <iampoz> so it is stable and plays any game fine. the problem is that a few other programs that use graphics cause my computer "crash"
[04:39] <iampoz> I think it just restarts lightdm or xorg or somthing like that
[04:39] <iampoz> I am running ubuntu 12.04
[04:39] <iampoz> any suggestions on how I can fix this issue?
[04:39] <Beldar> Siecje, Not really ubuntu relevant, however there is a dd command here to load it. http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Live_USB_stick
[04:39] <anton02> juxtomugular
[04:40] <iampoz> like where do I even start debugging where this problem is coming from/
[04:40] <iampoz> ?
[04:40] <iampoz> minitube is the main program that causes the crash. there was one other but I cant remember yet
[04:40] <Siecje> Beldar: I put in back in the comp that I formated it with and redid a format and unchecked "take ownershop of filesystem"
[04:41] <Beldar> Siecje, It's a fat32 right, I think unetbootin will work.
[04:44] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> what's better, ubuntu of opensuse?
[04:45] <xangua> Angel_Of_Sorrow: windows
[04:45] <xangua> !ot
[04:45] <iampoz> hmm maybe it is only minitube
[04:46] <iampoz> anyone else use minitube here?
[04:46] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> are there any tv capture cards that work with linux?
[04:46] <iampoz> what is a tv capture card?
[04:46] <Beldar> iampoz, You have spread your posts across the channel, can you concisely describe the issue.
[04:46] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> what about their software/drivers?
[04:47] <Beldar> in one post
[04:47] <negopreto> Maybe you should look for video4linux hardware compatibility list
[04:47] <iampoz> I can try, the problem is I don't know exactly what it is. So I tried to put all of my knowledge of it out into the chat.
[04:48] <Beldar> iampoz, That works best when asked, not many of us will go through that many posts and try and extrapolate a fix.
[04:48] <iampoz> I don't even think this is the right place for help, but I thought it would be a good place to get advice on how to debug this thing...
[04:49] <iampoz> Probelm: minitube crashes when I open it. this started after I updated nvidia to the most current driver
[04:49] <iampoz> Sorry, Minitube crashes lightdm
[04:50] <Beldar> iampoz, Is this latest driver in the ubuntu repos?
[04:51] <iampoz> no
[04:51] <Beldar> iampoz, Then not supported here is all.
[04:51] <iampoz> this is beyond that. the lastest driver in the ubuntu repos would not work for a game
[04:52] <iampoz> Yeah I know, but any idea on how I can figure out what the cause is? I mean, it could be minitube itself, nothing to do with ubuntu 12.04...
[04:52] <jirido> is there a way to direct mouse pointer, scroll and click with brain in ubuntu like is possible in windows with ex emotiv epoc.  iv read wikipedia on openvibe and emokit but they seem 5to be something else
[04:53] <Beldar> iampoz, You may get help however, the key here is details IE the graphic card and drivers your using and where from is a good start. A crash with minitube and nvidia is a bit of an anomaly is all.
[04:53] <jirido> or someting in between
[04:53] <cfhowlett> jirido, no telepathic ubuntu control exists, yet
[04:53] <jirido> ok
[04:54] <entiat_blues> trying to track down a dual-monitor problem here; do the TTY* screens have a log somewhere to go over?
[04:54] <jirido> cfhowlett,  Is there someting for linux in general you have heard about or on the way?
[04:55] <cfhowlett> jirido, someone, somewhere is undoubtably working on mind-control interface but it's not yet ready for prime-time
[04:56] <iampoz> GeForce GT 230M and this driver: http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/69372
[04:57] <jirido> Sad
[04:57] <jirido> My mouse hand is realy fucked up
[04:57] <uBUXUBu> good evening ubuntu technicians...
[04:59] <cfhowlett> uBUXUBu, unlikely that any techs are here, mostly just users like you ...
[05:04] <pablo__> After running a fresh Ubuntu installation I worked for a while without any problems then, I ran the updates and got a grub rescue error: file not found. I then run boot-repair and got An error occurred during the repair.  A new file (~/Boot-Info_2014-01-04__03h56.txt) will open in your text viewer. The contents are found here. Thanks in advance. http://paste.debian.net/74150/
[05:06] <Beldar> pablo__, when you installed and rebooted to grub what was the first OS listed ubuntu or mint
[05:06] <pablo__> ubuntu
[05:07] <pablo__> i installed mint after thinking it would solve my problem
[05:07] <pablo__> Beldar may I PM you?
[05:08] <Beldar> pablo__, I don't pm, best all this be in the channel, can you boot mint as of now or just no grub menu?
[05:08] <pablo__> no grub menu
[05:08] <Beldar> pablo__, Do you know which HD is listed first in the bios?
[05:08] <pablo__> i get the grub rescue error. File not found
[05:08] <pablo__> yes
[05:09] <Beldar> which is pablo__
[05:09] <pablo__> the 1000GB one
[05:09] <microm> how do I fix this error dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for /usr/lib/libcaepcm.so.1
[05:10] <pvl1> hey does anyone know of an app that is a list of opcodes
[05:10] <pablo__> Beldar, 1e6d03e5-8f68-4bb9-bd95-156d8b4d2a9a
[05:11] <pikaren> start on runlevel [2345]
[05:11] <pikaren> what does it mean?
[05:11] <pablo__> Beldar, I overwrote the windows partition and put the mint. there is no windows installation as of now
[05:12] <Beldar> pablo__, sda, good, I would use supergrub to boot into ubuntu or mint whichever you want to control the boot and run fixes there. http://www.supergrubdisk.org/super-grub2-disk/  this boot will tell us if ubuntu or mint will boot.
[05:12] <Ackis> I'm trying to track down my my starbound server isn't running on reboot but I don't have a daemon.log file in /var/log and google hasn't given me any info on how to enable that sort of logging
[05:13] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> what is Mythbuntu?
[05:13] <cfhowlett> !mythbuntu
[05:13] <Beldar> pablo__, supergrub is tiny and is for booting OS's in just thjis sort of situation.
[05:13] <pablo__> Beldar, Thanks let me run it and get back to you :-)
[05:14] <Beldar> pablo__, No prob we can fix grub easier from inside the OS.
[05:14] <pablo__> Beldar, Okay
[05:15] <Beldar> pablo__, Try to get to ubuntu.
[05:15] <Tosto> ciao
[05:15] <Tosto> !list
[05:17] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> i am trying to get a tv capture card working with linux... apparently my tv capture card works with mythbuntu? does that mean it will only work with ubuntu???
 nope
[05:18] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> ?
[05:18] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> no?
[05:18] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> it will work with others?\
[05:18] <cfhowlett> Angel_Of_Sorrow, mythbuntu is ubuntu plus the myth packages.  with the proper drivers, probably any distro can run myth tV
[05:18] <Gallomimia> if i've installed kernel 3.12 from a .deb package, and i now run dist-upgrade to install kernel 3.11.0-15 [image|headers|headers-generic|image-extra-generic] will it "downgrade" my kernel?
[05:19] <Gallomimia> if yes, what course of action should i take to execute an upgrade of other packages but not the kernel?
[05:20] <Beldar> Gallomimia, kernels outside of releases are not technically supported, maybe some context might help.
[05:21] <Gallomimia> i installed kernel 3.12 from kernel.ubuntu.org and would like to keep it that way
[05:21] <Gallomimia> it was on recommendation in this channel as a matter of fact, for better radeon support (works pretty good!)
[05:22] <Beldar> Gallomimia, Cool, what ubuntu release is this, and I'm assuming you recognize the support conundrum here.
[05:22] <Gallomimia> i just want some guidance to use apt-get at this point
[05:22] <Gallomimia> the release is 13.10
[05:22] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> is using mythtv essential to watching tv working on a linux machine???
[05:23] <Beldar> Gallomimia, I wanna fly like superman, how about you. ;)
[05:23] <Preytell> Is there a way to mirror the cinnamon remix packages into a local repo. I am setting up a PXE server for a client that wants to use cinnamon remix as their desktop. I can see how to install it after ubuntu is setup but not how to add it to my local repo to be installed along with everything else with PXE...
[05:23] <Gallomimia> well that'd be pretty neat, but for now i'll settle for getting a better handle on my new desktop computer :)
[05:24] <Beldar> Preytell, cinnamon is in the 13.04 ubuntu repos and after.
[05:24] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> hello.
[05:25] <Preytell> yes but I am being forced to use 12.04 LTS
[05:25] <IdleOne> incoming
[05:25] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> I have a question.Is using mythtv essential to watching tv working on a linux machine???
[05:25] <Gallomimia> i guess apt-get upgrade shall work
[05:25] <Gallomimia> wow someone kick the IdleOne for all that flooding :O
[05:26] <IdleOne> All done, soory folks
[05:26] <IdleOne> sorry too
[05:26] <Gallomimia> hah sorry just joking. i'm surprized that didn't get you g-lined
[05:26] <Beldar> Preytell, There are no ubuntu packages with cinnamon for that release, so not really under support is all, and wanting and actual stability do not always intertwine.
[05:26] <Gallomimia> essential housekeeping on a channel with 1500 people
[05:27] <pvl1> Beldar: what about mate
[05:27] <Beldar> pvl1, mate is a fork of gnome 2 not really good idea.
[05:28] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> Sorry. I have a question.Is using mythtv essential to watching tv on a linux machine???
[05:28] <pvl1> Beldar: im notsure what the question was, but isnt cinnamon basically the same thing
[05:28] <Beldar> not saying there not usable, just should be in a stable environment is all
[05:29] <cfhowlett> Angel_Of_Sorrow, no, you just need to capture and interpret signals
[05:29] <cfhowlett> Angel_Of_Sorrow, suggest you direct further questions to #mythbuntu
[05:29] <Beldar> pvl1, mate was the mint de till ubuntu went to gnome 3 which cinnamon is a user of I believe.
[05:30] <hussain> hi any one tell me how to set android adt bundle in ubuntu 13.10
[05:30] <Preytell> hmmm, ok. Well they are currently doing this via PPA, with simple apt-get with cinnamon and nemo under 12.04... I guess I can add it to the end of the install via a script or something...
[05:32] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> no such channel cfh
[05:32] <Beldar> Preytell, If they have to have that desktop why not just run mint?
[05:32] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> iam already in #ubuntu-mythtv
[05:33] <hussain> any one help me in setting android adt bundle in linux???
[05:34] <Beldar> hussain, not really a channel support issue however, http://tutorialforlinux.com/2013/10/17/how-to-install-eclipse-android-adt-bundle-on-ubuntu-13-10-saucy-unity-3264bit-step-by-step-visual-guide/
[05:34] <Preytell> It's a long story, but it's a charity that provides training to poor children, at the end of the one month long class they are given a computer running the same thing they have been training on, ubuntu 12.04 with the cinnamon remix desktop.
[05:34] <hussain> ok.
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[05:36] <pero> my laptop
[05:36] <Gallomimia> morning to you, but it's 9pm here :)
[05:36] <lotuspsychje> Gallomimia: evening for you :p
[05:37] <Beldar> Preytell, I support that, I have done a bit of volunteering for a homeless help org, and a crisis line, however training these kids to use a not really available OS as is, is kinda counter productive, using a ppa to install a desktop that may not work at times is well not good.
[05:37] <pero> my laptop's fan doesn't stop spinning on ubuntu - ive tried ubuntu13.04/10 and xubuntu 14.04, however it does not spin as much on debian + xfce - any ideas? dell xps m1210
[05:37] <pvl1> Beldar: thats pretty kool that you did that
[05:37] <Gallomimia> that's awesome praytell, can i learn more about it?
[05:38] <Gallomimia> feel free to email me at gmail
[05:38] <Beldar> pvl1, just keeping up the karma points I loose here. ;)
[05:38] <lotuspsychje> pero: fan control in bios you could change?
[05:38] <pero> why would i mess in the bios if it works fine on debian?
[05:39] <lotuspsychje> pero: i think there are few packages to control fans in ubuntu, forgot their names
[05:40] <mnemon> pero: debian + xfce is much lighter than unity atleast ... have you checked if it spins because of heating up or?
[05:41] <pero> mnemon: im using xubuntu right now
[05:41] <lotuspsychje> !info lm-sensors | pero
[05:41] <Preytell> it's a charity in St. Louis called BWorks, they do three things, computer training (as mentioned), bike safety training (the children get a bike at the end), and a class for young writers, where they publish the works at the end of the class. They get all the computers donated from local businesses, and they reload them by hand. I work for Savvis/CenturyLink and Savvis sends teams of employees over to help out but we are attempting
[05:42] <jnash_> Does anyone remember how to launch virt-manager from a terminal window?
[05:42] <lotuspsychje> !info i8kutils | pero
[05:42] <Gallomimia> praytell: there are 6 towns in the US named st. louis. can i assume it is the one in moussiri?
[05:43] <pero> lotuspsychje: mine isnt one of those laptops, but i have tried it - i get error messages

[06:01] <Meldon> Hi.
[06:01] <cfhowlett> Meldon, greetings
[06:01] <Meldon> About the only thing I cannot get to work is 5.1 surround on Realtek/Intel HDA.
[06:01] <anton02> lotuspsychje: yes, it doesn't have secureboot
[06:01] <pablo__> Beldar, It says no OS found and no .cfg files found
[06:01] <lotuspsychje> pero: not sure then mate, out of options here
[06:01] <Meldon> The HDMI audio from my GTX 555 seems to work, but I need 5.1 to work on my analog output.
[06:01] <ogden> anyone decent with ltsp and tmpfs?
[06:02] <anton02> lotuspsychje: but ubuntu boot-repair for some reason auto enables securboot. should i switch it off?
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> SaberX01: does this look like a clean tut: http://elabualg.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/dual-boot-ubuntu-and-windows-8-uefi/
[06:02] <Meldon> Because it uses the three analog outputs on the back of my PC.
[06:02] <ogden> also hello all :)
[06:02] <Meldon> The other day I downloaded the Linux sources for Realtek/HDA which is apparently alsa. I built it then make install but after rebooting it hangs about halfway through the boot.
[06:03] <SaberX01> lotuspsychje, I'll go have a read.
[06:03] <Meldon> Anyone know how to get it to work?
[06:03] <Meldon> I tried enabling lfe remixing and default channels to 6 but still doesn't show up in the profile.
[06:03] <lotuspsychje> anton02: take a look at the url i gave to SaberX01 , maybe you overlooked something?
[06:04] <Beldar> pablo__, Something went wrong somewhere, you had a working bootable install of ubuntu at any point?
[06:04] <Meldon> Any information is greatly appreciated. =)
[06:04] <pablo__> Beldar, yes I did
[06:05] <Beldar> pablo__, A update in ubuntu brought you to this situation right?
[06:05] <pablo__> Beldar, when I attempt to list the files in (hd0,msdos1)/boot/ there is no grub folder
[06:05] <pablo__> Beldar, yes
[06:06] <Beldar> pablo__, there a boot folder with kernels?
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> Meldon: not sure if this is of any use for you, but there are latest realtek drivers for linux on their site, same for latest alsa drivers
[06:06] <Gilligan94> ok now I'm getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/6689142/ which doesnt appear to be connecting me to the router, it happens instantly weather I press the button or not
[06:07] <Beldar> pablo__, Was the upgrade in ubuntu a partial upgrade maybe?
[06:07] <SaberX01> lotuspsychje, the UEFI looks ok. I think, that anyone wiching to keep Win7/8 in tack, should not bohte wih Dual boot, rather, jsut install and run *Nix via Virtualbox, and if they want a Native Install .. turn off UEFI and do a Legacy Boot from the BIOS.
[06:07] <SaberX01> *wishing
[06:07] <Meldon> Yea. You have to compile them. I did with build-essentials. Then make install. Then reboot, hangs on boot. I am kinda new to Linux (again) and don't know how to look at boot logs or chroot using Live session so I can see why it won't boot.
[06:07] <lotuspsychje> SaberX01: yes thats our wish lol, but in reality 90% wanna try 'safe' dualboot :p
[06:07] <Meldon> Could it be that I make install without alsa being installed?
[06:08] <Meldon> I simply installed the OS, the made the Linux driver, installed, rebooted.
[06:08] <Beldar> SaberX01, I have 4 OS including W8.1 on my msdos toshiba laptop, I keeping it till it breaks, hehe.
[06:08] <Meldon> I dunno if alsa comes stock or if I needed to config something first.
[06:08] <pablo__> Beldar, Im running ubuntu on a bootable USB and I can see the grub folder in the /boot/ but when I try to list on the grub rescue prompt I cant see it!
[06:08] <lotuspsychje> Beldar: can you take a look at this url, see if its clean? http://elabualg.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/dual-boot-ubuntu-and-windows-8-uefi/
[06:09] <lotuspsychje> for future use
[06:09] <Gilligan94> mnemon: ok now I'm getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/6689142/ which doesnt appear to be connecting me to the router, it happens instantly weather I press the button or not
[06:09] <SaberX01> lotuspsychje, that's just it, its nto really safe, as you can seriously mess things up with UEFI enabled, and it appears that Win8 will not boot Grub Legacy on UEFI enabled hardware.
[06:09] <lotuspsychje> SaberX01: yes true, but explain that to users who's wife only wants w8 lol!
[06:10] <Beldar> pablo__, If all you had was an install that is now broken, I would just do a reinstall, if you do so when you update use the update gui and make sure it is not a partial is all. This may be fixable, but if you want to move on and have a working OS a reinstall is probably best. I would clean out the sda2 the windows boot partitrion as well.
[06:10] <SaberX01> lotuspsychje, that's why I say, run the *Nix instance in a VM on any UEFI / Win8 enabled machine, job done.
[06:10] <lotuspsychje> SaberX01: sounds like a smarter choice indeed
[06:11]  * lotuspsychje surely wont run w8 on anything :p
[06:11]  * SaberX01 wont either.
[06:11] <rww> How do I change the font settings in Ubuntu?
[06:11] <lotuspsychje> SaberX01: did you read the part uefi was created for intruding other Oses lol
[06:12] <lotuspsychje> “non authorized” operating systems.
[06:13] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Meldon
[06:13] <Beldar> lotuspsychje, I like the backup and recovery making parts, and using the windows partitioner. The problem I have seen with uefi installs are the manufacturers varied uefi configs, so I try to give people this link as well. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295  That mod is the best in this area, I learned all my grub stuff on that forum watching and working with them and others
[06:13] <Meldon> ubottu, the problem is is that I only have stereo output. No 5.1.
[06:13] <lotuspsychje> Beldar: thats true what you say, ive been able to install ubuntu out of the box on some uefi machine
[06:13] <SaberX01> lotuspsychje, well there attempt failed, as it can be done.
[06:14] <Gilligan94> rww: open up the software center and search for unity tweak tool
[06:14] <lotuspsychje> Beldar: didnt have to disable nothing in bios
[06:14] <rww> i swear, if I see one more linux user blogpost conflating UEFI and Secure Boot, or saying UEFI is "a new type of BIOS"...
[06:14] <Gilligan94> it has a section for fonts
[06:14] <rww> Gilligan94: you can't do it out of the box?
[06:14] <Gilligan94> I'm ure you can
[06:14] <Beldar> lotuspsychje, Yeah seems to be no real exact wiki, lol, oh what fun.
[06:14] <Gilligan94> *sure
[06:14] <pablo__> Beldar, A fresh install will work, ive done it before and the same happened when I installed mint however the problem comes when I run the updates then I have this problem all over again. Yes even with the gui update
[06:15] <Beldar> pablo__, No partial upgrades?
[06:15] <pablo__> Beldar, no
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> rww: :p
[06:15] <rww> lotuspsychje: hrm?
[06:15] <Gilligan94> rww, I think it used to be in the system settings but it doesn't appear to be anymore at least not on my install
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> rww: new type of bios
[06:15] <Beldar> pablo__, Hmm, I would check your computer model and the ubuntu release on the web, there may be a known problem is all.
[06:15] <rww> lotuspsychje: it's depressingly common
[06:16] <pablo__> Beldar, Okay. Thanks for the time
[06:16] <ogden> anyone good with ltsp and a tmpfs home directory on the clients?
[06:17] <Beldar> pablo__, The bootscript looked basically good should be booting, however the script has some limitations.
[06:18] <Gilligan94> So does anyone know how to connect to a router set up for push button WPS in ubuntu? I'm not having any success with wpa_cli wps_pbc
[06:18] <Beldar> pablo__, The only thing that seemed strange was seeing the usb as sdb and the two HD's as sda and sdc, generally it would show the usb as sdc.
[06:19] <ogden> disable wps its insecure :)
[06:19] <cfhowlett> ogden, perhaps in the #ubuntu-server channel ...
[06:19] <Gilligan94> ogden, I'm aware but this isnt my router
[06:19] <cfhowlett> Gilligan94, sorry, #ubuntu-server might know ...
[06:20] <Gilligan94> cfhowlett, this isn't really server related
[06:20] <ogden> Gilligan try these steps http://askubuntu.com/questions/120367/how-to-connect-to-wi-fi-ap-through-wps
[06:20] <pablo__> Beldar, one of them was an external hard drive. wonder if that explains anything
[06:20] <Beldar> pablo__, which the sdc?
[06:20] <ogden> mainly i just need to know where the heck to put the fstab for the clients which doesnt seem to be explained anywher in ltsp man pages
[06:21] <pablo__> Beldar, Let me check the sizes and confirm because its a 250GB
[06:22] <Gilligan94> ogden, that answer appears to be for WPS pin not WPS push button
[06:22] <ogden> ah sorry let me see then
[06:23] <pablo__> Beldar, yes the sdc is the external hard drive
[06:23] <ogden> Gilligan94: have you tried wps-client?
[06:23] <Beldar> pablo__, yeah sdc then, it shows in the script windows remnants, so when grub run on the internal it could be getting confused with the windows remnants on the external, I would clean out any windows files there not needed, and the sda2 windows boot partition. This is a guess but grub is just a app in the end.
[06:23] <bp0> Hello. after some updates tonight, my computer is not usable. :( it looks like there was an linux kernel update and it has made graphics fail to work. The kernel will not load nvidia or nouveau for my nvidia card.
[06:24] <Beldar> pablo__, sdc has grub in its mbr as well.
[06:24] <pablo__> Beldar, Okay. Let me clean out all the windows remnants and re run boot-repair
[06:26] <Beldar> pablo__, I would unplug that external in general, I have a bunch myself, I never have them plugged in when messing with grub, it will read them...etc.
[06:26] <Gilligan94> ogden, I dont believe I've come across wps-client
[06:28] <pablo__> Beldar, Ive unplugged them and removed everything on the /dev/sda2. Im running boot-repair again
[06:29] <ogden> i think its in package wpa_supplicant
[06:29] <jetson53> hi
[06:30] <jetson53> anyone can give a tip how to completly remove wine.......when I try it says that wine is not installed
[06:31] <jetson53> I use Ubuntu 13.10
[06:31] <yash069> apt-get remove wine
[06:31] <yash069> apt-get purge wine
[06:31] <rww> jetson53: i assume you're asking because icons still show up?
[06:31] <yash069> apt-get autoremove
[06:32] <yash069> jetson53: ^
[06:32] <Beldar> pablo__, If you get a grub menu boot what is first in the list and run sudo update-grub when in.
[06:32] <Gilligan94> might be easier to brute force the WPS that connect to it properly
[06:32] <pablo__> Beldar, Will do
[06:32] <rww> Gilligan94: thank you, i installed ubuntu tweak tool and found it
[06:33] <Gilligan94> rww no problem
[06:33] <jetson53> No, when I try to remove it through a terminal, It says thet wine is not installed
[06:33] <pablo__> Beldar, It has been Ubuntu first in the list
[06:34] <yash069> jetson53: are u sure, can u still run it ?
[06:34] <bp0> jetson53: what makes you believe that wine is installed? if it is just that you still see icons, that could just be that the menu items were not removed.
[06:34] <jetson53> wait I,ll check
[06:35] <jetson53> I can still configure it.......
[06:36] <Gilligan94> jetson53: have you tried looking for it in synaptic and removing it that way?
[06:37] <jetson53> no
[06:37] <bp0> jetson53: I had your problem. if i remember right the wine package was pointing to wine-1.14 or something, and installed was wine-1.17
[06:38] <bp0> dont remember exactly, but try to remove all wine, something like apt-get remove wine-*
[06:38] <bp0> the actual package wine just points to some other package
[06:38] <bp0> whatever the current version on offer is, I think
[06:39] <sandGorgon> interesting article about SSD - http://www.extremetech.com/computing/173887-ssd-stress-testing-finds-intel-might-be-the-only-reliable-drive-manufacturer
[06:40] <jetson53> it worked doing it through synaptic..thnx
[06:42] <Gilligan94> ogden, I cant see anything about a wps-client anywhere. other than a mock up
[06:44] <pablo__> Beldar, This is the new message http://paste.ubuntu.com/6689243/
[06:44] <ogden> Those are just the two that came to mind, I can't think of anything else
[06:48] <Beldar> pablo__, Only thing strange is a gpt partition table on the usb, does it boot now, I see an error on the repair.
[06:48] <Beldar> not sure if the efi stuff on the live makes it read a gpt table
[06:49] <Beldar> pablo__,I have to go take care of a little work be back in 1/2 hour.
[06:49] <pablo__> Beldar, I wanted you to first look at the file before I restart since im working on the same system... Okay I'll be here when you return
[06:52] <rww> umm.

[06:53] <ikill12> hello everyone
[06:54] <Gilligan94> skype aint what it used to be :/ I wish it was still peer to peer
[06:54] <rww> skype works fine, and is running, I just can't find where unity puts systray icons
[06:54] <alesan> hi
[06:54] <rww> and if i try to run it again it errors because it's already running
[06:55] <alesan> do not worry - I am a Linux user but on this particular computer, I have dual boot with WINDOWS7; how in the hell can I set WINDOWS7 as default?
[06:55] <alesan> I have tried everything, but it doe not work
[06:55] <Gilligan94> in previous versions of skype it showed up in the messages menu
[06:55] <alesan> every tutorial or stackexchange question on it, the files are different on 13.10
[06:56] <rww> I googled this problem, and the only bug report I can find has something about mark shuttleworth deciding systray icons are obsolete?!
[06:56] <Gilligan94> rww thats not true systray icons still show up
[06:57] <Gilligan94> it's just skype
[06:57]  * rww loads KeepassX and enables its systray icon to test
[06:57] <rww> ... the "Show system tray icon" option is greyed out
[06:58] <Gilligan94> welp good luck :P
[06:58] <TheMadcapper> Btw, while Ubuntu kept reporting "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted.", *kbuntu* installed fine.
[06:58] <TheMadcapper> so...
[06:58]  * TheMadcapper shrugs
[06:58] <Success> Hello everyone. I have grub2 installed, it successfully loads linux, my drive is formatted as gpt, i have a bios, one disk, but windows gives me some can not boot error because it doesn't know how to use gpt, and needs an mbr. i get that much. but all of the fixes on the internet are for efi. how can I fix windows to work with my gpt w/o efi
[06:58] <Success> or can I fake an efi or something?
[06:58] <thom_r> Gilligan94, skype is not a very going voip service in my opinion.
[06:59] <Gilligan94> thom_r, yea having my calls recorded doesnt really tickle my fancy
[06:59] <rww> why do I not have an option to run KeepassX in the systray on Unity?
[06:59] <Success> thom_r, what is a good alternative?
[06:59] <thom_r> Gilligan94, leave it to Microsoft to screw up a good product.
[07:00] <Gilligan94> thom_r pretty much :P
[07:00] <thom_r> Success, I use Viber. Available for most smart phones, Linux, and Android tablets.
[07:00] <anton02> how do you mount a zfs partition?
[07:00] <elky> rww: does right click on the icon give a lock option?
[07:00] <rww> Like, I am seriously trying to get used to Unity, but when I have to install a separate application to change fonts, and my systray stuff which works fine in KDE does not work on it, it is hard.
[07:00] <Gilligan94> Success, I've been using google hang outs off and on
[07:00] <rww> elky: on the icon on the left bar?
[07:00] <elky> yes
[07:00] <thom_r> I like google hangouts as well.
[07:01] <rww> elky: lock to launcher, did you mean that?
[07:01] <elky> yes
[07:01] <elky> thats as close as you can get afaik
[07:01] <rww> elky: this does not have the same behavior as the keepassx systray icon. specifically, i cannot minimize to it and have it not show up in alt-tab
[07:02] <rww> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/keepassx/+bug/842224
[07:02] <rww> are you kidding me
[07:02] <rww> Ubuntu's solution to Unity not working properly with KeepassX's systray icon is to disable KeepassX's systray icon on Unity.
[07:03] <SoulRaven> is posibile to redirect the traffic from one port on 2 ports in the same time
[07:03] <rww> meanwhile, someone attached a patch a year and a half ago that apparently fixes the issue, and this has not been merged
[07:03] <rww> words fail me
[07:05] <pablo__> Beldar, When I googled my laptop model and ubuntu 12.04 I found there was someone with a similar issue and has an interesting solution :-) Im gonna trying it out now...
[07:06] <n8815> hi
[07:06] <rww> oh, there we go
[07:06] <rww> the correct solution to "my skype icon doesn't show up in Unity" is 1) not complaining about how Skype records your calls and then praising Google, 2) sudo apt-get install sni-qt:i386
[07:07] <rww> hope that helps any future people, using google search or something
[07:08] <Beldar> pablo__, Cool, good to research, seemed a bit beyond my skills.

[07:28] <kay______> no, i guess not.
[07:29] <rww> i expect there's some way to do it, I was hoping for either 1) a shiny GUI panel as seen elsewhere, or 2) someone who knows what command I'd use, and also how to make Unity run a script on startup
[07:30] <kay______> setxkbmap maybe
[07:32] <kay______> what is "compose"?
[07:33] <rww> kay______: it lets you compose sequences of characters into one. e.g. compose + ' + e = e with an accent over it
[07:35] <rww> aha, I have found it
[07:35] <rww> All settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Typing -> Compose Key
[07:35] <rww> ☺

[07:41] <kkkkk> hi all, my mic is producing very noise in ubuntu, i tried to lower down boost, but  in windows, same mic is working well, how to enable noise cancellation and echo suppression in ubuntu, i am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS, in windows, i used to enable them in system settings
[07:42] <kkkkk> when i lower down boost , then it stopped catching sounds, even when i speak near to it, Mic is a internal mic, laptop, i think it is capturing fan sound
[07:42] <kkkkk> but it shouldn't , how to stop that in ubuntu
[07:44] <cummseng> Running 13.10. Notifications are appearing on my secondary monitor. I've got unity-tweak-tool installed and selected active screen but it still doesnt work. Ideally id like it to appear on both screens but id at least like it to make it appear on my active screen. How to?

[08:01] <b3h3m0th> I have resized an NTFS partition using windows and ended up getting a grub rescue prompt. I used an Ubuntu 12.04.1 bootable pendrive to mount the linux installation partition to /mnt/ and bind /dev to /mnt/dev/ . Now I chroot to /mnt/ and tried to fix grub . But I am getting this error. http://pastebin.com/sg3EYG7P
[08:03] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, I see gpt are you aware of this, is it just the partition table?
[08:04] <Beldar> This a W8 dual boot?
[08:06] <b3h3m0th> Beldar: I don't understand what that means. This is my partition table : http://i43.tinypic.com/2nvcscl.png
[08:06] <ROPA> has anyone actually been able to make skype work?? It used to run well in my daughters laptop and in my desktop. But, it stopped working in both systems and nothing I try makes it work. It seems recent changes were made that stopped it from working. Any ideas what I need to do?
[08:07] <kostkon> ROPA, wokring fine here. What changes?
[08:07] <Demosthenes_> >2014
[08:07] <Demosthenes_> >using firefox to join IRC
[08:07] <Demosthenes_> >top kek
[08:08] <ROPA> kostkon not sure what changes, but it stopped working at the same time in both computers.
[08:08] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, You have a uefi setup, try the bootrepair app. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair  be sure to save ythe generated bootinfo summary.
[08:08] <kostkon> ROPA, try running it from the terminal
[08:08] <kostkon> ROPA, do you see any error messages
[08:09] <ROPA> kostkon both systems appear to work, until a call is attempted....then it closes with no error message....on both of my systems.
[08:09] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, Were you planning to resize the ubuntu partition?
[08:09] <kostkon> ROPA, hmm
[08:09] <b3h3m0th> Nope.. I was resizing the sda6 partition in that image ( NTFS )
[08:10] <ROPA> kostkon I never tried running it in terminal. Will try it in a few minutes.
[08:10] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, Right but you have an unallocated space now, what were your plans with it?
[08:12] <jesus_smasher> ok so i update ubuntu kernel to 3.11 and now on boot i get a blank screen
[08:12] <jesus_smasher> is really frustrating
[08:12] <jesus_smasher> please help
[08:13] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, update or install?
[08:13] <jesus_smasher> i updated
[08:13] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, from the update manager right?
[08:13] <jesus_smasher> it runs thur all the boot text then the screen just goes blank but backlight is still on
[08:14] <jesus_smasher> ya
[08:14] <b3h3m0th> Beldar: I have no Idea where that came from !!! sda8 is the linux partion I have and while installing linux there, I had grub installed in my MBR (sda)
[08:14] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, You using a graphic driver from the hardware website?
[08:15] <jesus_smasher> i dont think so
[08:15] <b3h3m0th> Beldar: I am not able to add the repository for bootfixer
[08:15] <jesus_smasher> i dont even really have a gpu
[08:15] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, when you resize a partition you leave an unallocated space if you shrunk sda6 this makes sense.
[08:15] <jesus_smasher> i have an amd cpu with intagraded ati gpu
[08:16] <jesus_smasher> like hd4000 or something
[08:16] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, Did you install a graphic driver, and do you know the graphic crad?
[08:16] <b3h3m0th> so now how can I proceed with the boot fix ?
[08:16] <Beldar> !nomodeset | jesus_smasher try this
[08:16] <b3h3m0th> I am not able to ad repo
[08:16] <b3h3m0th> Beldar: http://pastebin.com/wJJ1Asr4
[08:17] <jesus_smasher> ive tried nomodeset, no help
[08:17] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, you do not do this from a chroot.
[08:17] <jesus_smasher> and i tried acpi_osi=off and nothing
[08:17] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, Does an earlier kernel work?
[08:18] <b3h3m0th> yeah... that was it :)
[08:18] <jesus_smasher> no, it work in recovery but there is not ui just text terminal.
[08:19] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, JUst exit the chroot and follow the link
[08:19] <jesus_smasher> it was working fine before the update tho
[08:19] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, You tried the previous working kernel?
[08:19] <jesus_smasher> yes and does not work now
[08:19] <jesus_smasher> i get the same issue...
[08:19] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, Hmm, I'm not sure.
[08:20] <jesus_smasher> oh maybe it changed a driver for my gpu?
[08:20] <jesus_smasher> cuz there were alot of updated
[08:20] <jesus_smasher> updates*
[08:21] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, You did this from the update gui or the terminal?
[08:21] <jesus_smasher> grrrr i hate this poo
[08:21] <jesus_smasher> update gui
[08:21] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, Did you see a partial upgrade warning?
[08:21] <jesus_smasher> no there wasnt
[08:22] <Beldar> jesus_smasher, Hmm strange, again not sure.
[08:24] <jesus_smasher> do you know if there is a channel for kernels
[08:24] <jesus_smasher> kernals
[08:24] <arlen> kernels
[08:25] <jesus_smasher> hehe knew it was one or the other
[08:25] <aeon-ltd> jesus_smasher: #linux is pretty general
[08:25] <jesus_smasher> cool ill give it a shot
[08:25] <aeon-ltd> though there probably is a specialist chan for compiling custom kernels
[08:25] <ROPA> kostkon I just tried to install skype again and can't even get it to open in the software center now!!!! It trys to open the installer in openoffice writer.
[08:27] <ROPA> kostkon it also seems the 64 bit version is missing, only the 32 bit version can be downloaded.
[08:27] <Beldar> ROPA, Have you tried the ubuntu repos skype?
[08:28] <Beldar> !skype
[08:29] <ROPA> Beldar search for skype in the software center using !skype??
[08:29] <Beldar> ROPA, In the terminal sudo apt-get install skype
[08:30] <ROPA> Beldar that
[08:30] <ROPA> Beldar that's the first thing I tried...it said it couldn't find skype.

[08:38] <abailarri> Hello. Anyone has installed Teambox? It not works and I don't know why
[08:42] <b3h3m0th> I have tried bootrepair but now I am getting an (initramfs) prompt !!!
[08:42] <Beldar> abailarri, 3rd party not really supported, you might look for installs on your specific release, I found a general one. https://github.com/teambox/teambox/wiki/Installing-on-Ubuntu
[08:43] <abailarri> Beldar, I readed and used this guide to install
[08:44] <Beldar> b3h3m0th, Post that bootinfo summary on the app developers thread, there are several user focused on this area. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10871917#post10871917
[08:46] <Beldar> abailarri, I have no idea, you may get support here inspite of it's 3rd party place, however it is a bit slow at this time here is all.
[08:47] <abailarri> Beldar, do you know a similar software?
[08:49] <weeb1e> Hi everyone, I've updated the nofile hard and soft limit for root in /etc/security/limits.conf but it doesn't take affect, when I open a new SSH session and run a process with sudo and check it's nofile limits it is still the default

[08:58] <bradley> who farted.
[08:59] <lyh> Excuse me,why ubuntu can not adjust the  screen brightness?
[08:59] <bradley> im linuxing for the very first time guys
[08:59] <panopticon36> can anyone tell me what program ubuntu 13.10 uses for splash screens when booting?
[08:59] <panopticon36> is it still usplash or something else
[08:59] <somsip> panopticon36: plymouth (perhaps)
[08:59] <panopticon36> plymouth?
[09:05] <panopticon36> <hasnt used linux since ubuntu 10.04 LTS
[09:05] <panopticon36> i'm learning that a shit load has changed lol
[09:05] <panopticon36> trying out both steam and netflix-desktop in linux for the first time
[09:05] <panopticon36> i only ever went to linux when vista happened, after 7 was released i migrated back to windows, but always liked the way linux did things
[09:05] <panopticon36> now that it has netflix and steam, figured why the hell not
[09:05] <panopticon36> still getting used to no using synaptic as my package manager is kinda a pain so far
[09:33] <Nicnm> So I have to be root to use nautilus...why?
[09:33] <pikaren> can i make a upstart job unstoppable even with root privilege?
[09:34] <andyfied_> Nicnm: i don't think you have to use root for nautilus normally
[09:35] <Nicnm> normally you don't but the only way it allows me to open is if i open a terminal and type sudo nautilus
[09:35] <SaberX01> Nicnm, no you do not have to be sudo / root to use it.
[09:36] <Nicnm> it says WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-9VfiBGveIm: Connection refused ; Could not register the application: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface `org.gtk.Actions' on object at path /org/gnome/Nautilus
[09:36] <SaberX01> Nicnm, then you have something else going wrong .. are you logged in as a normal user ?
[09:37] <Nicnm> yep, tho I did do do-release-upgrade, would that do
[09:39] <SaberX01> Nicnm, generally speaking, not it should not cause you this problem. I did find a bug surrounding this problem in Gnome.
[09:39] <SaberX01> *no
[09:40] <Nicnm> b4 I waste your time I'm gonna try restarting real quick
[09:42] <SaberX01> Nicnm, what  version of Uubuntu are you on, paste outout from this pse:  lsb_release -d
[09:51] <thom_r> hello
[09:54] <delt> damn...... how do i rewrite the grub MBR??
[09:55] <delt> i tried update-grub from a recovery console.... no go
[09:55] <Magical1> sorry, i'm new to ubuntu, had tried configuring it  so i could use as webserver but somehow managed to prevent access to http last https working, can anyone advise?
[09:56] <Magical1> *last night,
[09:56] <panopticon36> Has anyone else had the trouble where plymouth does not load properly if you are using nVidia drivers?
[09:57] <panopticon36> My attempts at remedying the situation have not helped
[09:57] <SaberX01> wow what's with all the Guest mode changes.. I got a whole screen full of them.
[09:58] <joker1> is there any tutorial for increasing the security? i'm using precise
[09:58] <Safa_[A_boy]> That's better now :D
[09:59] <explosion> ciao
[09:59] <joker1> test
[10:01] <panopticon36> hey, what is the actual function/purpose of this chatroom
[10:02] <Nicnm> reboot fix the issue
[10:02] <Magical1> according to channel description it is official ubuntu support channel
[10:02] <panopticon36> anybody know?
[10:02] <joao> hi
[10:03] <panopticon36> hello joao
[10:03] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> man this is a drag
[10:03] <joao> hi, Panopticon
[10:03] <joao> I am new here.
[10:03] <panopticon36> me too
[10:03] <joao> good
[10:04] <panopticon36> i'm looking for some advice dealing with plymouth and nvidia drivers
[10:04] <panopticon36> apparently the combination is a pain
[10:04] <joao> I am not sure about drivers. sorry.
[10:05] <SaberX01> Nicnm, Ok, thanks for the update, not sure why the reboot fixed it, but a win is a win =D
[10:05] <joao> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/03/how-to-get-plymouth-working-with-nvidia.html
[10:05] <joao> It may help
[10:06] <panopticon36> i've seen some similar fixes that start off like that one
[10:06] <panopticon36> but this is a little different
[10:06] <panopticon36> i'll give it a try
[10:06] <panopticon36> thanks for the support
[10:07] <tozen> hi all!! I've moved directory .sync accidentally working with Nautilus. Where it have to be located by default? THX
[10:08] <tizbac> panopticon36, you can't get graphical console and nvidia drivers at hte same time
[10:09] <tizbac> graphical console requires kernel mode setting which is not and it probably won't be supported by the proprietary driver
[10:09] <tizbac> some distros like fedora and opensuse try to enable graphical console anyway , but they cause instability and corruption
[10:10] <panopticon36> interesting
[10:10] <bekks> tizbac: For me, that works perfectly, using Nvidia.
[10:10] <SaberX01> why would anyone want that anyway .. just another llayer for potentual failure.
[10:10] <SaberX01> *layer
[10:10] <panopticon36> then is there a way to delay the nvidia driver from loading?
[10:10] <panopticon36> that way when plymouth goes to do its thing, its still using some default vesa driver?
[10:10] <tizbac> panopticon36, the problem is not when it is loaded , but if you have set some graphical mode before loading it
[10:11] <panopticon36> i havent that i know of
[10:11] <panopticon36> say i'm going to tinker a bit, brgb
[10:11] <tizbac> if you have used the vesa driver you have set another mode
[10:12] <tizbac> see if nouveau works fine for your needs , it's the best way
[10:12] <joker1> anyone have best driver for amd hd4670m?
[10:13] <Magical1> sorry tobother you, i managed to break something last night and can no longer connect over http, https still working, can anyone help?
[10:15] <bekks> !anyone|joker1
[10:15] <panopticon36> darn, the method joao linked also did not work
[10:15] <panopticon36> i'm reverting the changes now
[10:21] <panopticon36> tizbac, i've reverted my changes to the grub configs so that should all be back to normal now. Do you have any other suggestions how to get plymouth and nvidia playing nice?
[10:22] <Guest898> hi anyone here
[10:23] <panopticon36> yessir
[10:23] <bekks> !anyone| Guest898
[10:24] <tizbac> panopticon36, sadly there aren't
[10:24] <tizbac> it's a proprietary driver so all we can do is using it as is with its limitations

[10:26] <dev_> hi guys , mysql won't work because the folder almost full
[10:26] <raub> Jessica1: I did notice before they make adapters for mouse and keyb and I never got the mouse one to work with a keyb one
[10:26] <Jessica1> I plugged the cable of this keyboard on my macmini, I have lubuntu version 13.04,  the keyboard start the led but it doesn't work
[10:26] <dev_> i'm trying to increase the root size , but i dont knw how to do this , im new in ubuntu command line

[10:27] <dev_> yes

[10:27] <panopticon36> join

[10:28] <dev_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6690007/
[10:28] <raub> Jessica1: have you tried this keyb+adapter in another computer?
[10:29] <Jessica1> yes it worked on an old computer
[10:29] <Guest898> mnemon,  how to check it drops the incoming packets
[10:29] <Jessica1> if I pres num lock the led works
[10:29] <mnemon> Guest898: that will block packets FROM the site, not the ones you send there.
[10:29] <mnemon> Guest898: wireshark=?
[10:29] <raub> Jessica1: does "lsusb" show the keyb?
[10:29] <cummseng> Running 13.10. Notifications are appearing on my secondary monitor. I've got unity-tweak-tool installed and selected active screen but it still doesnt work. Ideally id like it to appear on both screens but id at least like it to make it appear on my active screen. How to?
[10:29] <raub> dev_: pastebin output of "sudo pvs"
[10:30] <dev_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6690013/
[10:31] <Jessica1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6690017/
[10:32] <dev_> raub
[10:32] <raub> dev_: you are a bit SOL; you only have 48MB free
[10:32] <Jessica1> in this moment there are 2 keyboard plugged and 1 mouse
[10:32] <dev_> but in other folders i have so much space
[10:32] <raub> Jessica1: it is only reporting an external mouse
[10:32] <dev_> and i want my root to have more space , cant i do this ?
[10:33] <Jessica1> the usb keyboard is working properly, the other one ps2 is brand DELL
[10:34] <raub> dev_: I do not know how you are mounting Projects if that's what you mean. Is it a local drive? pastebin "sudo fdisk -l"
[10:35] <raub> dev_: *and* "cat /etc/fstab"
[10:36] <raub> Jessica1: Ok, so the usb keyboard is 040b:2000
[10:37] <raub> Jessica1: if that is the case, the computer is not seeing the other keyb
[10:37] <raub> Maybe try another adapter?
[10:37] <ansel> hi
[10:37] <dev_> sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit  -> Disk /dev/mapper/dev--server--root does not contain valid partion table
[10:37] <Jessica1> but why when I press num lock the led goes on ?
[10:37] <ansel> i need air track
[10:38] <ansel> for terminal
[10:38] <dev_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6690032/
[10:38] <raub> Jessica1: I dunno; it might be that since keyb is getting power it can do some local things to it
[10:38] <Jessica1> ok thanks
[10:39] <dev_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6690045/
[10:39] <ansel> hey what is meaning of sudo
[10:39] <ansel> how does it define
[10:39] <raub> dev_: so Projects is not a local partition
[10:39] <ansel> why
[10:39] <Beldar> !sudo | ansel
[10:39] <ansel> which one of you
[10:39] <dev_> i have virtualbox , projects is shared folder
[10:39] <dev_> raub
[10:40] <ansel> wait
[10:40] <raub> dev_: that changes a lot of things then! You could shut down the vm, resize the disk, and restart it
[10:40] <dev_> i did
[10:40] <raub> dev_: then you can do some resizing
[10:41] <dev_> i increased it from it from 15 to 30
[10:41] <raub> dev_: and it did not recognize? Odd
[10:41] <dev_> dev--server--root , still same size
[10:41] <raub> dev_: it should have realized it had changed (fdisk)
[10:41] <panopticon36> i think i found the source of my issues with plymouth
[10:41] <dev_> mysql full , so i cant connect to it
[10:42] <raub> dev_: you can always boot from a cd
[10:42] <dev_> cd is not with me :(
[10:42] <panopticon36> My laptop uses "optimus" technology, meaning it is meant to switch between two GPUs, the integrated intel 3000HD and nVidia gtx525m
[10:43] <raub> dev_: it is virtualbox, just feed it the iso
[10:43] <bekks> panopticon36: Then either use bumblebee or nvidia-prime, and not nvidia.
[10:43] <panopticon36> because of this, my installation of ubuntu does not even recognize that i have an nVidia gpu
[10:43] <dev_> then i resize partions ?
[10:43] <dev_> raub ?
[10:43] <panopticon36> what is bumblebee? something that takes advantage of the optimus technology?
[10:44] <raub> possibly; it depends on what fdisk then tell you
[10:44] <Beldar> !bumblebee
[10:44] <bekks> !bumblebee
[10:44] <bekks> hmm.
[10:44] <Beldar> panopticon36, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee
[10:45] <panopticon36> ahh, thanks
[10:45] <panopticon36> i'll give that a try right now
[10:45] <panopticon36> should i even bother manually downloading and installing the nvidia driver from the nvidia site?
[10:45] <bekks> panopticon36: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics
[10:46] <bekks> panopticon36: No, downliading it manually will break.
[10:46] <bekks> panopticon36: Just read both articles given, then decide which way to go.
[10:46] <panopticon36> bekks: thanks for the precaution
[10:46] <panopticon36> Beldar: thanks for the link to bumblebee
[10:46] <panopticon36> I'll be back either way to let you guys know what happens
[10:50] <jgcampbell300> anyone know how i can get very detailed info from processors throu sssh
[10:50] <jgcampbell300> ssh
[10:51] <bekks> jgcampbell300: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[10:51] <troth> Do you know a GUI application which allows me batch processing for size reduction of images?
[10:52] <ansel> heya
[10:52] <jgcampbell300> bekks, thanks much
[10:53] <reazem> hi! I want to create a /home for an existing user. Is there a command for it?
[10:53] <bekks> reazem: you user has no home currently?
[10:53] <reazem> bekks: that's it
[10:53] <jgcampbell300> wish there was an easy way to compare 3 diffrent servers cpus and bio's
[10:54] <karoline> ein frohes neues jahr an alle..
[10:54] <bekks> jgcampbell300: Whats "bio's"?
[10:54] <jgcampbell300> bios
[10:54] <l9> anyone knows if there is a channel for raspberry pi?
[10:54] <makara> hi. How can I change which servers to update from, from the command line? (I'm on 12.04 server)
[10:54] <bekks> jgcampbell300: Intel processors?
[10:55] <jgcampbell300> i have a strange problem ... i have 4 poweredge 2850s and there is something odd about one of them
[10:55] <jgcampbell300> ya
[10:55] <jgcampbell300> xeons
[10:55] <ansel> what is your strange
[10:55] <karoline> spricht jemand deutsch?
[10:55] <bekks> jgcampbell300: ark.intel.com
[10:55] <bekks> !de | karoline
[10:56] <jgcampbell300> bekks, that should help
[10:58] <jgcampbell300> bekks, do you know of a command that will get even more detailed info from processor
[10:58] <bekks> jgcampbell300: There are no more details to tell than cat /proc/cpuinfo tells you.
[10:59] <jgcampbell300> ahh
[10:59] <bekks> jgcampbell300: How about clarifying "the strange issue"?
[10:59] <jgcampbell300> bekks, omg i cant bleave i missed that
[10:59] <jgcampbell300> 6 processors have 2M cache and one of them has 1M
[11:00] <jgcampbell300> odd
[11:00] <bekks> jgcampbell300: Different CPU, different series, different age.
[11:00] <jgcampbell300> aye
[11:00] <bekks> jgcampbell300: However, what is your "strange issue"?
[11:00] <jgcampbell300> bekks, i could have swore all these servers where the same but guess im wrong
[11:01] <bekks> jgcampbell300: Whatever. You dont want to tell us whats your "strange issue", I am not interested in knowing it anymore.
[11:01] <jgcampbell300> bekks,  i was trying to figgure out whey my hypervisor pool rejects one of my servers
[11:01] <jgcampbell300> bekks, sorry was typing it out
[11:02] <jgcampbell300> bekks,  think i have been sitting here reading way to long ... having to rack my brain just to get a decent sentence out
[11:02] <MarkDavies> is it just my impression or am I right thinking that Ubuntu doesn't offer a user with the option of choosing of what software is to be installed?
[11:03] <jgcampbell300> MarkDavies, theres several ways to choose software ... apt-get or package manager gui
[11:04] <MarkDavies> jgcampbell300: I mean when installing
[11:04] <panopticon36> what are our thoughts on "nixie pixel"
[11:05] <jgcampbell300> MarkDavies, hmm i thought there was a selection place ... list that starts with open ssh or something like that
[11:05] <jgcampbell300> MarkDavies, if i rember right the very last option there will send you into a really large list of packages
[11:06] <MarkDavies> jgcampbell300: I can't remember that. Anyway, I need a Linux software which would offer just a console mode and have very basic software.
[11:06] <ar00> try out archlinux
[11:06] <MarkDavies> thanks
[11:06] <MarkDavies> does it have gcc compiler preinstalled?
[11:07] <jgcampbell300> MarkDavies, have you tried installing ubuntu server ?
[11:07] <MarkDavies> jgcampbell300: no
[11:08] <SaberX01> MarkDavies, Look into to the Minimal CD or debootstrap .. those are good starting point for what your after.
[11:08] <sacrelicious> hey guys, linux newbie, i did a linux partition, and have a bunch of unused HD space, i want to enlarge that partition, how can i do that with gparted?

[11:09] <jgcampbell300> i gota get some sleep for i passout lol .. you guys have a great day
[11:09] <SaberX01> sacrelicious, Yes, thats a descent GUI based tool to use.
[11:09] <Angel_Of_Sorrow> it says on the linuxtv.org the card i am looking at...."It is supported under Linux" what does that mean exactly?
[11:09] <sacrelicious> SaberX01,  how do i enlarge the partition? I do not see an option for resizing.
[11:09] <SaberX01> sacrelicious, You can boot from LiveCD and launch gParted from there.
[11:10] <sacrelicious> SaberX01,  from there, what do i do?
[11:11] <bekks> sacrelicious: boot a live cd, start gparted from the live cd.
[11:11] <SaberX01> sacrelicious, Was lookign for a descent How-Too: Have a read through this first: http://www.sitepoint.com/ubuntu-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin-using-gparted-to-partition-a-hard-disk/
[11:12] <panopticon36> Hey guys i'm back!
[11:12] <sacrelicious> perfect, thanks
[11:12] <SaberX01> sacrelicious, That's the basics, enlarging a partion is similar.
[11:12] <panopticon36> Bekks: your fix worked fantastically
[11:13] <panopticon36> Bekks: it worked easily, Just ran the commands, the shit downloaded and installed. Rebooted and everything now works. Plymouth just magically started not being dicks and everything

[11:16] <vik> can i install AMD drivers from their website in my ubuntu 12.04
[11:17] <panopticon36> vik: what GPU do you have.
[11:17] <vik> because . some one told u cant install in 12.04 but in 13.04 u can do
[11:17] <vik> AMD 7670M dual graphics
[11:18] <panopticon36> is that one of the gpu's that switches between integrated and dedicated?

[11:19] <vik> panopticon : its a swichable
[11:19] <pikaren> can it make my pc unbootable at night?
[11:19] <panopticon36> you'll want to use something like bumblebee
[11:20] <panopticon36> which is a software that takes advantage of this switching techology

[11:21] <cfhowlett> pikaren, get a wife.  your online hours will drop dramatically
[11:21] <panopticon36> monkeydust: nope, that doesnt work. mine just came in the room and asked when i'm going to bed
[11:21] <panopticon36> monkeydust: told her i'm doing science
[11:21] <vik> papopticons36: can i install AMD drivers in 13.04
[11:21] <bekks> vik: ATI/AMD doesnt use Nvidia Optimus.
[11:21] <panopticon36> vik: sure you caaaaaan, but the official ones wont take advantage of the switching technology
[11:22] <panopticon36> bekks: they dont call it optimus, but they do have their own brand of that technology
[11:22] <SaberX01> vik, I would not bother working too hard on 13.04, it's EOL in a matter of days / weeks.
[11:22] <Tasab> ubuntu , TLS , isit can work as a live cd ? pls
[11:22] <bekks> panopticon36: And bumblebee wontwork with that afaik.
[11:22] <cfhowlett> Tasab, LTS will run as a live CD
[11:23] <panopticon36> he'll want to "use something like bumblebee" though
[11:24] <vik> SaberX01 : i want some how to stop my pc overheated . i need AMD drivers to be installed . what should i do
[11:24] <SaberX01> vik, sri I have no idea AMD GPU's. I've never owned one.
[11:25] <panopticon36> The AMD Radeon HD 7670m chipset uses "AMD Dynamic Switchable Graphics" (which is like nVidia's Optimus Technology)
[11:25] <Tasab> cfhowlett: select the first installation or multi server installation
[11:26] <panopticon36> vik's computer has basically two gpu's in it, and software has to determine which threads get sent to which gpu for rendering
[11:26] <cfhowlett> Tasab, you asked about LTS, right?  DESKTOP LTS will run as a live session, not the server version
[11:26] <vik> i was using 13.04 with AMD drivers there were no problem with heating , but unity got crashed . so i installed 12.04 only reason bcoz it is LTS
[11:26] <bekks> panopticon36: Thats one of two possibilities. The other one is to actually switch and dedicate the GPU to be used.
[11:27] <ansel> hey i need help
[11:27] <Tasab> cfhowlett: actually am asking about the server session ,
[11:27] <panopticon36> in the case of nvidia/intel, bumblebee is the answer; for amd i dont know what the open source solution is. You'll have to do a little bit of hunting

[11:39] <ansel> chemist yes..
[11:39] <ansel> i have acer laptop
[11:39] <chemist^> ansel, check if you have a hardware button, that turns bluetooth on/off

[11:50] <murlidhar> hello everyone! how to load an app automatically minimized when the OS boots ?
[11:50] <vitimiti> hi o/
[11:52] <marianne> good morning world! I am currently running 12.04 64 bit and I'm looking for an app that will speak to me when I get email or a chat request... I know, yes, I want to create Jarvis or Hal... so anyone know of an app? I did fine google notifications, but I'm not sure it's what I'm looking for
[11:53] <cfhowlett> marianne, some apps do give audio notification.  I'd imagine you can specify which audio file gets launched ...
[11:55] <M1ker> Hi all, somebody know how to fix network after suspend? Read lot of articles, but don't work for me, I use Ububntu 13.10 . Try suspentd_module but it's don't help
[11:55] <marianne> cfhowlett: true, but I know that will be a lot of work for each app... i want to include system generated errors and such too... so when something crashes (which doesn't happen often) and I'm in  another room, I'll hear it
[11:58] <murlidhar> so what is the default window manager for ubuntu ?
[11:58] <murlidhar> unity or compiz ?
[11:58] <MonkeyDust> marianne  sounds like something blind people could use, search in that direction
[11:58] <SpaceCat> Snadge
[11:59] <tester56> is it possible with ubuntuone to make a truecrypt container and only sync changes like with dropbox?
[11:59] <marianne> MonkeyDust: lol, never thought of THAT! but your right.... might be something native in the OS for accessability already
[11:59] <MonkeyDust> murlidhar  unity is a compiz plugin
[11:59] <tester56> this has been asked multiple times in forums,  but there has never been given any answer
[11:59] <panopticon36> tester56: why not just use dropbox then
[12:00] <tester56> panopticon36: less free space
[12:00] <murlidhar> MonkeyDust: hmmm
[12:00] <tester56> if nobody knows the answer, could you point me to the right channel to ask?

[12:03] <chemist^> ansel, i told you
[12:03] <chemist^> it's turned off - hardware
[12:04] <chemist^> if you have dual-boot with windows installed as well.... boot in to windows, turn on your wifi/bluetooth with your FN key + F3
[12:04] <chemist^> check if your LED is turned on
[12:04] <chemist^> and reboot it in to ubuntu, it should work

[12:08] <tester56> SaberX01: thanks for the answer, but I can't see my question answered there (look at the last question in the link)
[12:08] <SaberX01> tester56, I can, but ok.
[12:08] <Guest69188> would like to upgrade kernel to 3.12 on saucy, can I just use the kernel version v3.12-saucy safely?
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> tester56  have you asked in the channel #ubuntuone ?
[12:09] <tester56> MonkeyDust: yeah, but no reaction so far
[12:10] <SaberX01> Guest69188, 3.12+ Kernel is for 14.04 .. while it is possible, is it safe to do, only if yo have a firm grasp of manually managing kernel / driver updates.
[12:10] <Guest69188> SaberX01: so future sudo apt-get update won't keep me up to date? I'm install saucy on a macbook, and it seems 3.12 could fix a number of issues
[12:10] <tester56> SaberX01: and what would be the answer in your opinion?
[12:11] <tester56> SaberX01: "If I mount a container and do make changes to the contents, when the container is finally dismounted in TC, Ubuntu One immediately uploads the changed container file." -> it is not clear if only changes are synced or the whole container ...
[12:11] <kngharv> help!  my newly installed saucy seems to stuck when the x-server is about to go up... AFTER I installed all my packages from my old system and trying to switch to gnome-shell.   at this point, i don't know if it's problem of x-server, gdm, or something else, would someone give me a hint?
[12:12] <SaberX01> Guest69188, If it were me, I'd install the distro that supported the 3.12 kernel instead of working outside the package management system. As for Macbook, I know nothing about them, other than my wife has one :-)
[12:13] <SaberX01> tester56, My suggestion, ask them the clarify it.
[12:13] <panopticon36> I used to install linux on my macbook 2,1 a lot. But it kept eating harddrives, so i retired it
[12:13] <SaberX01> and that's a problem for Ubuntu how?
[12:13] <panopticon36> I never had trouble with it as far as getting distros to work. It seemed to be easier to get working properly than some windows built computers.
[12:13] <Guest69188> panopticon36: I hope not, I got it only because it had a 1TB ssd!
[12:13] <panopticon36> the 2,1 model is old now
[12:14] <panopticon36> came out in 07
[12:14] <panopticon36> so whatever was causing it to act like that is surely remedies
[12:14] <Guest69188> panopticon36: everything is working but sound -- and yes, I read about the ssd issues, but it seems they've been mostly resolved. I hope ;)
[12:14] <panopticon36> back when i got mine no one was even dreaming about ssd lol
[12:15] <Guest69188> also, the recent upgrade to 3.11.15 kernel caused wifi problems... so I was thinking to go to 3.12 maybe I just sit back until tasty is out ;)
[12:15] <kngharv> i have looked at dmesg and /var/log/Xorg.0.log  and i can't find any error messages.   I tried to reconfigure my X by trying to do the fail-safe mode, and still failed
