[09:24] <yown> histo, if you have a troll in your room, run! I hear those things are evil
[09:24] <histo> yown: it's mounting in /media/username/somelong string
[09:24] <histo> yown: plug something in and type mount without argument in terminal and you will see it mounted to /media....
[09:24] <yown> So when I tell it to mount without being specific, it makes its own random directory?
[09:24] <gordonjcp> yown: not random, no
[09:24] <gordonjcp> yown: it makes up a directory based on your username and some label off the disk
[09:25] <yown> If it goes into a "media" then how come I don't have to go into a folder/directory called "media" to see them?
[09:25] <histo> yown: you have to be specific. IN the case of nautilus it makes a directory based of the ID of the filesystem and puts it in /media/username/thatID to make it "easy" for you.
[09:25] <gordonjcp> yown: because the folder icon on the launcher bar at the side is a convenient shortcut
[09:26] <gordonjcp> yown: if you open a terminal you'll find you can go to /media/yown/something and see the files on the drive
[09:27] <gordonjcp> yown: the great thing about it is, you don't have to care where the files *physically* are
[09:27] <yown> I don't see why that would be
[09:27] <gordonjcp> yown: maybe /media/home is on a disk that's not even in the machine you're working on, but in some other machine networked to it
[09:28] <yown> it will matter if the drive or the other machine goes down
[09:28] <gordonjcp> yown: right, but that's out of scope for this discussion
[09:28] <gordonjcp> yown: this is why we have things like UPSes and redundant power supplies
[09:29] <yown> I wonder if there really is much of a difference between this system and a shortcut to a directory/folder within windows system
[09:29] <histo> yown: there is a big difference
[09:29] <yown> how so?
[09:29] <histo> yown: we don't have random drive letters for partitions
[09:30] <yown> That is a difference in method, not effect
[09:30] <histo> yown: then use windows
[09:31] <histo> yown: and I want you to mount your D: drive to c:\somedirectory
[09:31] <histo> see how that works out for you.
[09:31] <yown> Seriously, I am trying to understand linux, not be told to use a different OS
[09:31] <histo> yown: I'm not telling you to I'm pointing out and example and difference like you asked.
[09:32] <yown> I meant difference of effect
[09:32] <gordonjcp> yown: I think shortcuts are more like symbolic links in Unix
[09:32] <histo> yown: and this is relevant to #ubuntu how?
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> histo is right guys, lets move on
[09:33] <yown> Because that difference when comparing the familiar to the less familiar helps one understand the less familiar more
[09:33] <tannji> not in this case
[09:33] <yown> yes, in this case
[09:33] <yown> That is why I asked/wondered
[09:33] <yown> To understand better
[09:33] <histo> yown: do you have a ubuntu related question?
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> !mount | yown
[09:34] <yown> except people got touchy or something instead
[09:34] <yown> I did, but people got touchy instead of answering
[09:34] <gilo> hello, i'm having hard time with ubuntu, i'm not able to fix the heating problem and the battry draining , i tried installing the ati drivers i didn't get a good result.
[09:35] <yown> But I have learned alot tonight anyway, thank you all :)
[09:35] <yown> I suppose I can try that question again latter, or differently
[09:36] <tannji> I had the same question and problem....  familiarity with microsoft can confuse the issue instead of helping it
[09:37] <histo> tannji: familiarity with insanity tends to mess people up
[09:37] <tannji> only if you take it seriously
[09:37] <mathfreak> Quite true. It took me ages to dissociate the idea of "/" corresponding with my HDD
[09:37] <histo> yown: ##linux maybe better suited for your general questions
[09:37] <histo> !manual | yown
[09:37] <tannji> I got into a yelling match with my A+ teacher over it
[09:38] <yown> With linux, you need to register a username or something to speak?
[09:38] <silenz> .
[09:38] <histo> !register | yown
[09:39] <mathfreak> I almost have a functioning mail server set up. I can send mail out successfully, but when I try sending mail to my server, I got nothing. Nothing shows up in my logs, and I've forwarded port 25, too.
[09:39] <yown> Was that a yes, histo?
[09:39] <histo> mathfreak: did you create MX records for your domain?
[09:39] <histo> yown: yes
[09:39] <Corey> mathfreak: Does your ISP filter inbound port 25?
[09:40] <HisaoNakai> histo - No go. Gparted still shows it as not having a partition table :(
[09:40] <histo> Corey: sometimes
[09:40] <gordonjcp> Corey: hah, I was just about to ask that
[09:40] <Corey> gordonjcp: Imagine that. :-)

[09:40] <histo> !anybody | silenz
[09:40] <mathfreak> histo: Yes, I have an MX record.
[09:40] <Corey> mathfreak: What domain?
[09:40] <histo> mathfreak: are they pointing at your server?
[09:41] <histo> gilo: do you have one of those dual video card setups?
[09:41] <silenz> next question? what next question?
[09:41] <mathfreak> Corey: I think that's the case (using comcast).
[09:41] <tannji> gilo,   as far as I know, the next release of proprietary drvers from AMD  (ATI) will address those issues
[09:41] <mathfreak> histo: They're pointing to my router, which I have a port forwarded to my server.
[09:41] <Corey> mathfreak: Comcast filters port 25. You're also not supposed to be running mailservers on a residential connection, for what it's worth.
[09:42] <B0r3dw15dom> hi friends, I want want to share a file on my ubuntu pc to my android device over wifi. Is it possible ? how?

[09:42] <Corey> Yuck, they suggest 465? Really? Deprecated, 587 replaced it.
[09:42] <histo> B0r3dw15dom: ssh?
[09:42] <silenz> i dont think alsa is working properly
[09:42] <HisaoNakai> histo - http://hastebin.com/vumojuqaro.rb
[09:42] <histo> B0r3dw15dom: there is an ssh server in the android market let me get the name of it hold up
[09:42] <gilo> yes it's an hp probook 4320s
[09:42] <tannji> B0r3dw15dom,  have you tried using Ubuntu One?
[09:43] <mathfreak> Corey: Darn. Any other options I can follow if I want to try setting up a server?
[09:43] <B0r3dw15dom> thanks histo ..
[09:43] <histo> HisaoNakai: sudo parted -l
[09:43] <gilo> and i have installed th fglrx-legacy
[09:43] <Corey> mathfreak: Smarthost, use a VPS, talk to someone with a box in a colo, etc.
[09:43] <Corey> mathfreak: Why do you want to run your own mailserver, anyway? It's not well advised these days.
[09:43] <gordonjcp> mathfreak: OVH
[09:43] <histo> B0r3dw15dom: this works amazingly well https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.sshserver&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5pY2Vjb2xkYXBwcy5zc2hzZXJ2ZXIiXQ..
[09:44] <tannji> gilo,  like I said, there are some tweaks... but for actual dynamic control of clocking and such to reduce heat and extend battery life, the current beta drivers are your best bet, if not waiting till they are official
[09:44] <histo> B0r3dw15dom: cheese long url here ya go http://goo.gl/rDOju
[09:44] <gordonjcp> mathfreak: you can get a very bare-bones VPS for about £5 per month
[09:45] <B0r3dw15dom> thaks a ton histo
[09:45] <histo> B0r3dw15dom: np
[09:45] <tannji> gilo,  what vid card do you have?
[09:45] <gilo> the fglrx-legacy is the only driver that worked
[09:45] <mathfreak> Corey: The NSA news recently got me paying attention to stuff I I wanted to try, such as setting up a mail server. I gave it a shot, and I've been rolling with it until now. :p
[09:45] <mathfreak> gordonjcp: I'll take a look.
[09:46] <HisaoNakai> histo - http://hastebin.com/xesakometi.rb
[09:46] <histo> mathfreak: iredmail is nice if you just want something for small home use
[09:46] <gilo> ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4300/4500 Series
[09:46] <histo> HisaoNakai: is the thumb drive plugged in?
[09:46] <Corey> mathfreak: Nice idea. This is why I have a partial rack downtown. :-p
[09:47] <HisaoNakai> histo - Ima replug it then try again
[09:47] <histo> HisaoNakai: yes please
[09:48] <HisaoNakai> histo - http://hastebin.com/fanocalaci.vhdl
[09:49] <histo> HisaoNakai: sudo cfdisk /dev/sdc   and create a primary partition full size of the disk
[09:49] <histo> HisaoNakai: write and quit then sudo parted -l
[09:50] <histo> HisaoNakai: also you may want to dmesg | grep sdc   and see if there are IO errors
[09:50] <yown> BTW, one thing that threw me/confused me earlier was when someone used FS to mean a partition
[09:50] <HisaoNakai> histo - I've to set the bootable flag too, correct?
[09:50] <tannji> gilo,   you may be out of luck....  you need the legacy driver, and I dont believe you can do better than what it enables.
[09:50] <histo> HisaoNakai: What do you plan on doing with this device?
[09:50] <HisaoNakai> histo - Seeing it was giving that error...
[09:51] <gilo> so nothing can be done?
[09:51] <histo> HisaoNakai: you only need the bootable if you intend on booting something off of it that is legacy
[09:51] <HisaoNakai> Okay.
[09:52] <tannji> gilo,   well, maybe I am wrong.  see these two links:  http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTM5NjE           http://search.amd.com/us/_layouts/search/search.aspx?csquery=legacy%20driver&collection=all-us
[09:53] <HisaoNakai> histo - Does cfdisk auto-quit if successful?
[09:53] <gilo> i'm checking them
[09:53] <tannji> gilo,  it looks like the next linux kernel will have improvements for the open source driver for you, but the proprietary drivers will not
[09:54] <HisaoNakai> histo - http://hastebin.com/juqitibuki.rb
[09:57] <gilo> i'm currently running linux 3.5, ishould use the open source driver instead?
[09:59] <gilo> and ubuntu 12.04
[10:00] <tannji> gilo,  I think you are in a catch-22 if you need the best performance from that card.  next kernel will give you better open source drivers, but not good gaming, and the proprietary amd driver gives you perfomance, but heat and battery kill
[10:00] <tannji> gilo,  if you arent gaming, I would load the open drivers
[10:02] <gilo> i'm not gaming but sometimes i use the hdmi for video play back and open drivers have poor quality
[10:03] <tannji> gilo,  ya...  like I said, catch-22.   I think your best bet is open drivers until you can get a newer laptop.
[10:04] <tannji> gilo,  on the bright side....  drivers should be greatly improving in the next year or two....  just not for that old of gpu
[10:04] <gilo> but the open source drivers where initialy installed, right?
[10:05] <tannji> right...  but I would imagine that after the next kernel trickles sown, you will get better open drivers than the current ones
[10:05] <tannji> down*
[10:07] <gilo> than it's the same but with better quality, so i should wait for the next kernel releases and install the open drivers?
[10:09] <tannji> gilo,   I dont know that the image quality will be better.  we can hope.  but the heat management will be better, from what they are saying at AMD
[10:10] <gilo> no i mean the closed drivers have better quality for now but for the power managment are the same
[10:11] <tannji> right
[10:13] <checkin> hi
[10:13] <checkin> I am unable to toggle wireless on/off, mute/unmute, play/pause using Front operation panel LED keys on my Toshiba Qosmio F60. Currently I need to enable WiFi/Bluetooth from Windows for it to work. Fn+F8 toggle works as soft block/unblock only if I have already enabled WiFi under Windows. Any ideas as how this can be done? I have tried Ubuntu 13.04 as well. The only LED Touch button that works under Ubuntu is the Volume Up/Down butto
[10:13] <gilo> so i'll stick to windows, thank you anyway

[10:26] <oddthingy> I once had a usb mobile device that worked on ubuntu, but lost it. Two that I have bought since dont work. Does anyone know of a brand/model that works?
[10:30] <varunendra> oddthingy, do you mean the gsm modems? like the 3g ones?
[10:30] <oddthingy> i think so
[10:31] <oddthingy> 3g, yes. i dont know what gsm means.
[10:32] <oddthingy> correction: yes, gsm
[10:32] <checkin> varunendra, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813484/
[10:32] <varunendra> oddthingy, I don't know of such a list or database if it exists, but you can look up VID:PID of natively supported ones to see which brand/models come with those chips.
[10:32] <varunendra> checkin, taking a look..
[10:33] <checkin> varunendra, i have enabled wireless from within windows now.. let me know if u want me to disable from windows and run this script again..
[10:33] <usr13> sindri: ipchicken.com
[10:33] <oddthingy> varunendra: actually, i dont need a list, just a single usb modem that works
[10:34] <sindri> usr13: I would like to avoid using other sites that way, planning on running a cron later when I get it too work
[10:34] <oddthingy> what do you mean by vid  id? i am not very technical.
[10:35] <varunendra> oddthingy, these devices are handled by the "option" driver. Use "modinfo option" command to see which VID:PID are supported (alias). VID is vendor id, pid = product id.
[10:36] <oddthingy> varunendra: ok, i'll try that, thanks
[10:37] <usr13> sindri: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-526176.html
[10:37] <varunendra> oddthingy, for example, one of the output lines (of "modinfo option" command) is "alias:          usb:v19D2p1278d*dc*dsc*dp*icFFiscFFipFF*". Here, vid is 19D2, and pid is 1278. So you can search for "19D2:1278"
[10:38] <usr13> sindri: But it uses whatsmyip.com so.
[10:38] <varunendra> checkin, if you simply reboot, does the wifi get hard blocked again?
[10:39] <checkin> varunendra, no.. but if the wifi is disabled from windows there is no way i can see to enable it back...
[10:40] <checkin> cant get rid off windows.. :-(
[10:41] <checkin> varunendra, the wifi switch does not create any xev event either..
[10:41] <oddthingy> varunendra: if a chip's vid and pid are listed, does this mean that devices using that chip should work?
[10:41] <oddthingy> just to be clear
[10:41] <gordonjcp> oddthingy: should do
[10:41] <varunendra> checkin, that is a known problem. It happens due to how the different firmwares handle the device. Unfortunately, the only other way I know of is to reset BIOS once it is disabled from within windows :(
[10:42] <checkin> toshiba calls these buttons are called front operation panel...
[10:42] <checkin> k
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> varunendra: tried disabling power management and the ability for the wifi device to wake up the pc
[10:43] <checkin> varunendra, i tried to do that.. but there is no wireless option in my bios..
[10:43] <varunendra> oddthingy, definitely. Although I can't say about any glitches it may have with the option driver.
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> checkin: tried what I said to varunendra aboven
[10:44] <varunendra> ActionParsnip, never had this problem myself. I only know what I know about these from forum posts.
[10:45] <checkin> ActionParsnip, i tried that when u mentioned on the help request in launchpad.. didn't work.. :-(
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> checkin: do you have the latest BIOSn
[10:45] <oddthingy> varunendra: do you mean the driver software?
[10:45] <varunendra> yes
[10:46] <varunendra> "option" is the name of the driver that handles these modems.
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> checkin: also, read through the dmesg text, it may give clues
[10:46] <checkin> ActionParsnip, s.. it is toshiba 2.70 the latest for my model..
[10:47] <oddthingy> varunendra: should checking whether a linux/ubuntu driver is available for a particular chip solve that?
[10:47] <varunendra> checkin, usually (but not always), a "hard block" means something that can only be dealt with from the physical switches or the BIOS.
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> checkin: run: dmesg | less ,scroll through and see what is going on. ESC to exit
[10:47] <usr13> sindri: lynx --dump http://ifconfig.me/ip
[10:48] <usr13> sindri: If you don't have lynx install it.
[10:48] <varunendra> oddthingy, "option" is the only driver needed. Even non-supported gsm modems can be made to work with it, but it needs some excessive tweaking.
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> usr13: thats kinda like icanhazip.com
[10:49] <checkin> ActionParsnip, should i do it after disabling wireless from windows.. i have a dmesg when wireless is enabled.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5659327/
[10:50] <varunendra> oddthingy, I am myself using "1c9e:9603". That is an "Omega Technology" chip in a micromax modem. But that is an old model now. May not be available in the market anymore.
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> checkin: do both, see what the diffence is etc
[10:50] <usr13> sindri: lynx --dump icanhazip.com  #Thanks ActionParsnip
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> usr13: or: curl icanhazip.com
[10:51] <usr13> ActionParsnip: Yea even better.  sindri ^^
[10:52] <varunendra> oddthingy, a less tekky approach may be to just make a post in ubuntuforums asking if someone is using a rather newer device that worked out-of-box.
[10:52] <checkin> ActionParsnip, i have a lspci output for with/without wireless.. output when wireless disabled from within windows http://paste.ubuntu.com/5659346/ output when wireless enabled from within windows http://paste.ubuntu.com/5659348/

[10:56] <HLEP> the one boot from hd doesnt work
[10:56] <HLEP> the other one does im on it now

[10:57] <HLEP> also wireless doesnt work

[10:59] <HLEP> but its more than just the wifi it seems there are integral system files missing as it doesnt seem to be able to do sudo apt-get command
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> hlep: if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,you will be shown
[10:59] <checkin> usr13: in windows it is a muti-function switch.. first time i do the combination wifi gets on, 2nd bluetooth on, 3rd both bluetooth, wifi on, 4th all off..
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> hlep: also what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[11:00] <usr13> checkin: But it may depend on some bios setting.  Do the other F-key functions work?
[11:00] <usr13> checkin: How about brightness?
[11:01] <checkin> usr13: all others work.. except for wireless Fn+F8, TouchPad toggle Fn+F9..
[11:01] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  have you tried ethernet?
[11:01] <varunendra> HLEP, what is the exact 'lock' error that you get when trying to install something?
[11:02] <usr13> checkin: Hummmm.... I don't know, unless there is a bios setting that causes it not to work.
[11:02] <checkin> brightness works.. but backlight does not..

[11:02] <HLEP> im on ethernet now using it on ubuntu
[11:02] <usr13> armin: Alt-Tab does not work?
[11:02] <HLEP> but obvs need to get wifi working
[11:03] <HLEP> one sec il find out the error message
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> hlep: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[11:03] <HLEP> for sudo apt get
[11:03] <checkin> usr13: even under windows Fn+F8 works only as a soft toggle.. I need to enable wifi using the front panel led switch first..
[11:03] <varunendra> checkin, it seems to be a wmi driver related issue. Not specific to wireless or other components. Can we have a look at your lsmod? (sorry if you already posted that)
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> hlep: thought it would be a cheap Broadcom
[11:04] <HLEP> i put in the command above and got this: Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[11:04] <HLEP> duno if thats what u meant
[11:04] <checkin> varunendra, i have not done that.. the entire command is sudo lsmod? any parameters to be added?
[11:04] <usr13> checkin: I do not see the need for wifi switches in the first place.
[11:05] <varunendra> checkin, sudo is not needed. Just "lsmod"
[11:05] <checkin> k
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> hlep: ok, do you have web access via Ethernet?
[11:05] <checkin> varunendra, i have disabled wireless from windows now.. so the LED light is gone.. and i have no wireless now.. will post the output..
[11:06] <HLEP> yeh i have connection via ethernet
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> hlep: then run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:06] <checkin> usr13: the switch brings up the orange light.. the rest like Fn+F8 i think are only for soft toggle..
[11:06] <HLEP> this is what i get for example when executing sudo -apt update: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[11:06] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  then do use sudo apt-get with ethernet; after that, try to fix wifi
[11:06] <varunendra> HLEP, download the "linux-firmware-nonfree" package > copy to the Ubuntu machine > double-click to install. http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/all/linux-firmware-nonfree/download
[11:07] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  make sure you don't have synaptic or software manager open
[11:07] <roger21> hey
[11:08] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  you can't use two apt managers at once
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> hlep: is software centre open?
[11:08] <roger21> can i reload a mod that is alredy loaded to give it some option
[11:08] <HLEP> dont think so
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> roger21: you will need to unload it first
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> !aptfix | hlep
[11:08] <roger21> could be dangerous
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> roger21: how so?
[11:09] <roger21> its the acpi mod
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> roger21: then specify the option in /etc/modprobe.d/acpi.conf (or similar) and reboot.
[11:10] <HLEP> guys it happens when i try to install anything installing the linux firmware non free thing now with software centre
[11:10] <roger21> yeah well, i'd prefer not to reboot
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> hlep: did the command ubottu gave make the packages ok?
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> roger21: those are your 2 options
[11:12] <RandomPixels> hello, i have a login loop problem
[11:12] <varunendra> HLEP, did you download the package linux-firmware-nonfree?
[11:12] <HLEP> bhleg@bhleg-UBUNTU:~$ sudo fuser -vk1 /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a vk1: unknown signal; fuser -l lists signals. dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> randompixels: did you drop to tty1 and login there. chown your entire home folder to your user
[11:13] <HLEP> yep its downloading now but it looks like its going well slow/not even going to download at all
[11:13] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  the sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg.backup/lock     <-- simply delete the lock
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> hlep: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ok?
[11:14] <MonkeyDust> then*
[11:14] <HLEP> on the nonfree thing it says waiting for apt-get to exit but i duno where else it could be running!
[11:14] <HLEP> action what does ping <IP_ADDRESS> mean?
[11:14] <RandomPixels> ActionParsnip, also my user doesn't have sudo rights (may this be an issue?)
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> randompixels: then su to one that does
[11:15] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  execute the suggestions you get here, then ask what they mean
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> hlep: its a connectivity tester
[11:15] <varunendra> HLEP, it is just a small file, almost 3MB. And the page I linked to has many different links to download it. For example : http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/ubuntu//pool/multiverse/l/linux-firmware-nonfree/linux-firmware-nonfree_1.11_all.deb
[11:16] <HLEP> rm: cannot remove ‘/var/lib/dpkg.backup/lock’: No such file or directory
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> hlep: in a terminal run: ping -c 4 <IP_ADDRESS> ,do you get replies?
[11:16] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  then try sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock     <-- simply delete the lock
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> randompixels: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[11:17] <RandomPixels> ActionParsnip, Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[11:18] <RandomPixels> I also get this in ~/.xsession-errors

[11:19] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  reboot the pc, then try to apt-get     I guess that's the easiest way to get rid of the lock
[11:19] <varunendra> HLEP, it means your internet connectivity is okay now. Just use the link to manually download the package (it won't fix the 'lock' issue, but will fix the wireless)
[11:20] <HLEP> im trying to download the package in softawre centre but all its saying is waiting for apt-get to exit
[11:20] <HLEP> how can i fix the lock issue and what even is it?
[11:20] <manishjain> if i forgot the admin password then how can i retrive that?
[11:20] <varunendra> HLEP, you can't use software center or any other package manager until the lock issue is fixed.
[11:21] <pip__> where is "mark as solved" hidden on the forums these days please?
[11:21] <varunendra> HLEP, is apt-get active in a terminal?
[11:21] <HLEP> okok so i install the package in terminal then
[11:21] <HLEP> klkl
[11:21] <HLEP> one se
[11:21] <HLEP> sec
[11:21] <FloodBot1> HLEP: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:21] <HLEP> soz
[11:22] <JackJackJack> during installation i found pnp bios do not allow something. so i tried with pnpbios=off and i passed next step succesfully. but another error showed up due SCSI sdb1 drive.
[11:22] <varunendra> HLEP, apt-get in terminal is also a package manager :)
[11:22] <JackJackJack> thats why i can not continue installing any version of ubuntu. can some1 have an idea?
[11:22] <varunendra> HLEP, if it is in progress, the dpkg directory will be locked until it finishes its job.
[11:23] <HLEP> i cant use apt get because 'unable to open lock directory'
[11:23] <dell_> if i forgot the admin password then how can i retrive that?
[11:23] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  reboot the pc to get rid of the lock
[11:23] <wilee-nilee> !password
[11:23] <b383m078> I want the contents of this page: http://tinyurl.com/locale-version to be stored in a variable. what is the  code for that ( i am using bash shell )
[11:24] <HLEP> its a mac and ive rebooted it over 10 times and same story
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> randompixels: get your home folder chowned to your user. You can boot to root recovery mode and do it there if you want
[11:24] <RandomPixels> i did that already and rebooted, no success
[11:24] <gordonjcp> HLEP: please pastebin the command you are typing and the error message, *verbatim*
[11:25] <wilee-nilee> dell_, You can reset it. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> manishjain: use root recovery mode and you can reset your user password using the 'passwd' command
[11:25] <varunendra> HLEP, what is the output of "ls /var/lib/dpkg/lock"
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> randompixels: can you log in as other users
[11:25] <b383m078> I want the contents of this page: http://tinyurl.com/locale-version to be stored in a variable. what is the  code for that ( i am using bash shell )
[11:26] <dell_> ok
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> b383m078: export VAR=`curl http://gshshhsh`
[11:27] <b383m078> hello, anybody knows the solution to my question ?
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> b383m078: change the url obviously
[11:27] <HLEP> posted it in pastebin
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> b383m078: you will need curl instaled
[11:28] <varunendra> HLEP, what is the link to your pastebin paste?
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> hlep: post the new address in your browser address bar in here
[11:28] <HLEP> hleg-UBUNTU:~$ ls /var/lib/dpkg/lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[11:29] <gordonjcp> b383m078: that's not really an Ubuntu support question.  Maybe you could try ##linux
[11:29] <HLEP> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813589/
[11:29] <gordonjcp> bhleg@bhleg-UBUNTU:~$ apt-get update
[11:29] <gordonjcp> HLEP: ^ there's your problem
[11:29] <checkin> ActionParsnip, dmesg when wireless disabled from within windows: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813568/
[11:29] <gordonjcp> HLEP: try using sudo
[11:29] <HLEP> did i do the command wrong?
[11:30] <checkin> varunendra, lsmod when wireless disabled from within windows: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813573/
[11:30] <HLEP> kl
[11:30] <HLEP> seems to be...Done
[11:30] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  it's      sudo apt-get update
[11:30] <HLEP> sudo apt-get update worked
[11:30] <HLEP> so now what do i do? ;P
[11:31] <gordonjcp> HLEP: well, what were you trying to do in the first place?
[11:31] <HLEP> get rid of the unable to lock error (u can see in the pastebin) and get the wireless drivers working
[11:32] <RandomPixels> ActionParsnip, no, to all users it does the same
[11:32] <varunendra> HLEP, "sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree" = to get your wireless working.
[11:32] <b383m078> http://tinyurl.com/locale-version

[11:33] <HLEP> apparently completed but still has the unable to lock directory error
[11:35] <varunendra> HLEP, do "sudo modprobe -v b43" now - and let us know if your wireless comes to life.
[11:36] <HLEP> did that command^ it didnt seem to do anything didnt give me a 'complete' message or anything
[11:37] <varunendra> checkin, No obvious culprits in your lsmod. As an absolutely wild guess, you can try blacklisting (temporarily) the "toshiba_acpi" driver. Un-blacklist it if it doesn't help
[11:37] <HLEP> did that command^ it didnt seem to do anything didnt give me a 'complete' message or anything
[11:38] <varunendra> HLEP, it should have returned 3-4 lines of out put, starting with "insmod".. did it?
[11:38] <depschizo> I search a german chat
[11:38] <HLEP> nope
[11:38] <depschizo> i need help with IDJC
[11:40] <varunendra> HLEP, then show us the output of "lsmod". (lsmod | pastebinit) Post the pastebin link here.
[11:40] <foofoobar> Hi. I'm trying to install a vim theme (colors). I want to look it like here for example: http://www.vimninjas.com/2012/08/26/10-vim-color-schemes-you-need-to-own/
[11:40] <foofoobar> My problem is that it looks like my terminal colors are influencing the colors I set in vim
[11:40] <foofoobar> What can I do to prevent this?
[11:40] <checkin> varunendra, can u let me know where that file is to edit it :P
[11:41] <HLEP> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813620/
[11:42] <HLEP> EVERYTIME I DO ANYTHING IT SAYS UNABLE TO LOCK DIRECTORY DOES THAT MEAN IT HASNT WORKED EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS 2 NEWLY INSTALLED
[11:42] <HLEP> sozcaps
[11:42] <varunendra> checkin, "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf". Open it as root (gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf) > Add "blacklist toshiba_acpi" in the last > save and close.
[11:42] <lotuspsychje> !caps | hlep
[11:42] <HLEP> i know soz guys it was accidental
[11:45] <varunendra> HLEP, do - "sudo modprobe -rfv b43", let it finish, then again do - "sudo modprobe -v b43". Post back if it made any difference.
[11:45] <checkin> varunendra, did that.. do i need a reboot?
[11:46] <acy94> Hello
[11:46] <varunendra> checkin, since it is acpi related, yes.
[11:46] <lotuspsychje> acy94: welcome mate, what can we help you with
[11:46] <acy94> Well, I got a problem ~after~ I uninstalled dwm
[11:46] <acy94> AFter I uninstalled it, I rebooted and it wouldn't let me even get to lightdm
[11:47] <acy94> It's just a black screen that seems to be in a loop
[11:47] <checkin> varunendra, k.. will reboot into windows, disable wifi, and again boot into ubuntu.. tht should be fine rite?
[11:47] <varunendra> right
[11:47] <checkin> k
[11:47] <lotuspsychje> acy94: you can try boot last kernel maybe?
[11:48] <lotuspsychje> acy94: and see what errors you got in logs
[11:48] <acy94> Hold on gonna check the logs now.
[11:49] <HLEP> just did this  cat /etc/modprobe.d/* | egrep 'bcm'
[11:49] <HLEP> then some other stuff to do with gedit and now im going to reboot see if it worked. ill be back in 5
[11:49] <acy94> lotuspsychje, cause all I did was, install dwm, then couldn't figure out how to log out
[11:49] <acy94> so I purged and removed it and restarted
[11:50] <acy94> And theres a lot of log files here, so I'm not sure which one to look into
[11:50] <HLEP> how can i find out what processes i have running?!
[11:51] <PocketDog> HLEP, 'top' in terminal.
[11:51] <MonkeyDust> or htop
[11:51] <Kakeb0ks> anyone here?
[11:51] <MonkeyDust> Kakeb0ks  no
[11:52] <Kakeb0ks> :p
[11:52] <lotuspsychje> acy94: maybe this can help: http://superuser.com/questions/432048/graceful-logout-in-dwm
[11:52] <Kakeb0ks> need some help with Xubuntu 1304
[11:52] <lotuspsychje> !ask | Kakeb0ks
[11:53] <HLEP> ye so apt-get is at the top how do i get it to stop
[11:53] <HLEP> because until i do
[11:53] <HLEP> i cant install anything
[11:53] <HLEP> even tho i thought that was an installer anyway....
[11:53] <PocketDog> HTOP, use the killall command
[11:54] <varunendra> HLEP, you can 'kill' the process, but it is a bad idea if an installation is in progress
[11:54] <HLEP> its using all of my cpu
[11:54] <acy94> lotuspsychje, none of those files exist, since I pretty much purged dwm from my system
[11:54] <HLEP> and i dont know if there is an installation is in progress
[11:54] <varunendra> HLEP, do you have apt-get running in some terminal?
[11:54] <lotuspsychje> acy94: hmm, what about a lightdm restart?
[11:54] <MonkeyDust> HLEP  what did you do with your machine, to make it so troublesome?
[11:55] <HLEP> i have no idea lol
[11:55] <acy94> I can't even get a tty up since it's stuck on a black screen
[11:55] <varunendra> :P
[11:55] <HLEP> just spent all night partitioning and installing it
[11:55] <HLEP> and just ran into a shitload of problems
[11:55] <HLEP> probs because its on macbook pro new one
[11:55] <HLEP> how can i just quite terminal
[11:55] <HLEP> does close window not quite the program?
[11:55] <lotuspsychje> acy94: try booting grub in a previous kernel maybe?
[11:56] <acy94> kk
[11:56] <acy94> Be right back.
[11:56] <lotuspsychje> acy94: or try a failsafeX
[11:56] <acy94> failsafeX?
[11:56] <acy94> How do I get into that?
[11:56] <lotuspsychje> acy94: grub recoverymode
[11:56] <varunendra> HLEP, if you invoke a program from a terminal, then closing that terminal will also kill the program
[11:56] <HLEP> ye thats what i tohught so where is this apt-get coming from
[11:56] <lotuspsychje> acy94: then load the defaults on grafix
[11:57] <acy94> Okay
[11:57] <acy94> be right back
[11:57] <lotuspsychje> acy94: good luck
[11:57] <Kakeb0ks> my xubuntu is so sloow for some reason :s i installed it some hours ago, when i use ubuntu software senter, it starts to get slow, i got 8 GB ram
[11:57] <HLEP> ye thats what i tohught so where is this apt-get coming from
[11:57] <varunendra> HLEP, what other package managers have you used so far?
[11:57] <Friberg_> which drivers for 7970 is recommended from Ubuntus point of view? Is it the built in xserver-xorg-video-ati?
[11:58] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: any logs getting errors on your xubuntu?
[11:58] <HLEP> only the software updater and even then it said i cant complete because apt-get is running elsewhere
[11:58] <lotuspsychje> !ati | Friberg_
[11:58] <checkin> varunendra, now nothing is related to Fn is working either :-( should i reinstall ubuntu and try this whole process again on a fresh install, in case other files are blocking it?
[11:58] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, ye, got some random errors :s
[11:59] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: can you pastebin them?
[11:59] <Kakeb0ks> some point, its fast , randomly xubuntu gets slow :s
[11:59] <varunendra> checkin, that was expected (either it'll make others work, or disable all). Just un-blacklist the driver (remove its line from the blacklist.conf file).
[12:00] <HLEP> anyone?
[12:00] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: 8gig on xubuntu...should be fast, something else might be lagging system
[12:00] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, mhm , but what :s
[12:00] <Kakeb0ks> didnt have same problem with ubuntu
[12:00] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: lets try reading the logs :p
[12:00] <varunendra> HLEP, can we safely assume that YOU didn't initiate an installation that is in progress?
[12:01] <HLEP> yeah
[12:01] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: or tail -f /var/log/syslog.1 to check in realtime
[12:01] <HLEP> even if i did it would have been ended by now because have rebooted twice
[12:02] <HLEP> right?
[12:03] <checkin> varunendra, k.. removed it from blacklist and did a reboot.. now others are working fine.. :-) is it like end of the road :-)
[12:03] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, found the file now
[12:03] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: So, its the built in one thats recommended by Ubuntu. Just tried that one, how am i supposed to enable non mirrored displays?
[12:04] <HLEP> ??
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> !patience | HLEP
[12:04] <varunendra> checkin, seems like that :( Maybe the latest model is too new for the driver to handle?
[12:04] <HLEP> faiirrr ive been seraching all night lol
[12:04] <varunendra> HLEP, yes we can attempt to kill the process then.
[12:04] <kai__> Hello?
[12:04] <HLEP> ok so whats the command to kill all processes?
[12:05] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, haha, chromium hangs xD when i copypasted the text into pastebin xD
[12:05] <kai__> Kateb0ks: I've had far less problems with Chrome
[12:05] <varunendra> HLEP, what is the exact name of the apt-get process in "top" command?
[12:05] <checkin> varunendra, one last ques? any thinkpad models that will be completely compatible with Ubuntu/Debian?
[12:05] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: not sure what mirrored displays would do, try to ask your specific problem in chat mate
[12:06] <kai__> Can someone read over my website for some critcal feedback? It was made on ubuntu btw. www.rejoicegames.com
[12:06] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: Mirrored displays gives me the same image on every single monitor i have. I'd like to extend my desktop, not mirror it.
[12:06] <HLEP> command: apt-get using 1-00% of cpu user: ROOT
[12:06] <Friberg_> How do I do this with the built in ati-driver
[12:06] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, You have exceeded the maximum file size of 500 kilobytes per paste xD
[12:06] <HLEP> *100% cpu
[12:07] <lotuspsychje> !ot | kai__
[12:07] <Kakeb0ks> hah, maybe install lubuntu instead
[12:07] <varunendra> checkin, take a look at this thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1543006 I hope someone can offer better help :P
[12:07] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: with 8gig ram xubuntu should be fine, what are other specs of your machine mate?
[12:08] <varunendra> HLEP, try - "sudo killall apt-get"
[12:08] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, the comp is 3 months old :s so shouldnt be a problem
[12:08] <checkin> varunendra, thnx for your help..
[12:08] <mentalist> is there any full system encryption program for ubuntu? like truecrypt for windows

[12:09] <HLEP> noice apt get is now stopped
[12:09] <varunendra> thanks to ubottu ?? :D
[12:09] <lotuspsychje> :p
[12:09] <HLEP> so now shall i try and install those drivers i donwloaded to my home folder earlier?
[12:10] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: you should find the bottleneck mate, xubuntu should run fine on that machine then
[12:10] <varunendra> HLEP, yeah, try that (sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree)
[12:10] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, but how .. hmm
[12:11] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: define what goes slow, check logs, start programs from terminal to see whats happening etc
[12:11] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: dis you check additional drivers, if all installed correctly?
[12:12] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: installed new hardware recently?
[12:14] <Friberg_> I've managed to setup three screens correctly using xrandr and xorg ati driver.. but things are laggy as hell. minimizing a window laggs even.
[12:15] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: did you also check your additional drivers section, to see if drivers installed correctly?
[12:15] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: older grafix card or rather new one?
[12:16] <Friberg_> 7970, rather new.
[12:16] <habanany> Aldiko or fbreader ?
[12:16] <lotuspsychje> !poll | habanany
[12:16] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: ive checked additional drivers and it says that im using the recommended driver.
[12:17] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: did you clean install ubuntu, or upgrade..wich version are you on now?
[12:17] <habanany> ubottu thanks
[12:17] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, i install Lubuntu
[12:17] <lotuspsychje> !info lubuntu-desktop | Kakeb0ks
[12:18] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: clean and upgrade, ive actually tried the same thing in 13.04 clean, then i upgraded to 13.10. So now you're goin gto tell me to bugger off and ask my questions in ubuntu+1, right?
[12:18] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: whats the reason you choose xubuntu with 8gig ram? dont like unity on 13.04?
[12:18] <habanany> ubottu whats a bot ? is it a automatic thing ?
[12:18] <HLEP_> hey again guys what was that command
[12:18] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: did your problem happen in 13.04 the same?.
[12:18] <habanany> ubottu ok ok
[12:19] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: yes
[12:19] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, i like xubuntu more :p
[12:19] <Kakeb0ks> than the new ubuntu
[12:20] <HLEP_> anyone who was helping me earlier got that command for installing the wireless drivers?
[12:20] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: you could tryout ubuntu-desktop 13.04 see if same lags happen, if not like install lubuntu-desktop from there
[12:20] <razzledazzle> why isn't ubuntu notifying me network disconnections?
[12:21] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: not sure why your grafix lag like this, i would doublecheck logs for any errors maybe
[12:21] <Kakeb0ks> lotuspsychje, i had ubuntu some time ago, but after installing GPU drivers, i couldnt log in
[12:21] <varunendra> HLEP_, did the apt-get command complete successfully last time?
[12:21] <Kakeb0ks> black screen
[12:21] <HLEP_> the last thing i did was kill apt-get in top
[12:22] <varunendra> HLEP_, then try now - "sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree" (assuming you are connected via cable)
[12:22] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: maybe your grafix card bugs?
[12:22] <HLEP_> thats the one :D
[12:22] <lotuspsychje> Kakeb0ks: what chipset your grafix card got?
[12:23] <FiremanEd> quick question: Does Alt + sysrq + REISUB still reboot, or has it changed since the Maverick days?
[12:23] <varunendra> FiremanEd, it does
[12:23] <HLEP_> this is what i got E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? bhleg@bhleg-UBUNTU:~$
[12:24] <FiremanEd> thank ye, varunendra
[12:24] <varunendra> HLEP_, check the "top" command again.. :|
[12:24] <varunendra> FiremanEd, you
[12:24] <varunendra> you're welcome!
[12:24] <HLEP_> just did aptget isnt running anymore
[12:24] <HLEP_> but still it says cannot lock
[12:25] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: not really the problem. the lag i can live with. not beeing able to use my 6 monitors, thats the nasty part.
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> HLEP_: software centre still open maybe, or didnt 'sudo' apt-get?
[12:25] <Friberg_> when using fglrx driver i get something about my screen cannot be bigger than 1920x1080
[12:25] <Friberg_> öh.. 1920x1920
[12:25] <Friberg_> actually
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: 6 monitors on the same card :p
[12:25] <varunendra> HLEP_, I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to suggest, it can be risky. But try manually deleting the locks.. wanna try?
[12:25] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: yes
[12:25] <HLEP_>  Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[12:25] <HLEP_> yeah il try that
[12:25] <sanav> hello admin .I found problem in installing ubuntu on preinstalled win 8 system(UEFI ) .Please help me .Complete : http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813611/  .Please read this .Thanks
[12:25] <HLEP_> but whats the risk?
[12:25] <mentalist> why you need 6 screens?
[12:25] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: 2x dvi, 4x dp
[12:26] <Friberg_> mentalist: not the question here.
[12:26] <lotuspsychje> !uefi | sanav
[12:26] <varunendra> HLEP_, then do - "sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock"
[12:26] <sanav> lotuspsychje: already read .Thanks
[12:26] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: never configged 6 screens yet on ubuntu, so i cant help you with that :p
[12:26] <sanav> HLEP_: or 'sudo pkill dpkg'
[12:27] <Friberg_> figures. works great in windows thou
[12:27] <HLEP_> i did first one command but it asked for password then nothing
[12:27] <HLEP_> is it doing it in background?1
[12:27] <varunendra> HLEP_, did you enter your login password when it asked?
[12:27] <HLEP_> yep
[12:28] <varunendra> HLEP_, now check if the file was deleted - "ls /var/lib/dpkg/lock"
[12:28] <HLEP_> sudo
[12:28] <varunendra> HLEP_, does it return an output or "no such file" error?
[12:28] <HLEP_> yep
[12:29] <HLEP_> cannot access file no such file or directory
[12:29] <HLEP_> i assume its gone then
[12:29] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: maybe this can help: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution
[12:29] <varunendra> good
[12:29] <varunendra> yes
[12:29] <HLEP_> klkl so now if i try to install these drivers it will work now?
[12:30] <varunendra> HLEP_, now try again - "sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree"
[12:30] <varunendra> HLEP_, success or error again??
[12:31] <HLEP_> i think its done it!! Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:   linux-image-generic Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove it. The following NEW packages will be installed   linux-firmware-nonfree 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 3,943 kB of archives. After this oper
[12:31] <HLEP_> soz for psating it in convo
[12:31] <lotuspsychje> sanav: seems like grub didnt install correclty to read
[12:32] <lotuspsychje> sanav: did you disable secure boot from bios?
[12:32] <varunendra> HLEP_, proceed then.
[12:32] <HLEP_> so should the wireless be fixed now??
[12:32] <HLEP_> or is there more to do?
[12:32] <HLEP_> also the lock thing should be fixed as well shouldnt it/
[12:32] <sanav> lotuspsychje : why i need to disable it .if i disable it , we can't install ubuntu on win 8 .Its required .
[12:33] <varunendra> HLEP_, I hope so :) but you'll need to unload --> re-load the driver
[12:33] <HLEP_> how does one do this?
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> sanav: seems like your win8 locked out grub, so it cant boot
[12:34] <varunendra> HLEP_, after it finishes, do - "sudo modprobe -rfv b43", then - "sudo modprobe -v b43".
[12:34] <sanav> lotuspsychje: may be .
[12:34] <lotuspsychje> sanav: how about single install ubuntu
[12:34] <sanav> lotuspsychje: it work fine .
[12:34] <HLEP_> done those commands now
[12:34] <HLEP_> do i need to reboot?
[12:35] <HLEP_> not even a reboot needed
[12:35] <sanav> lotuspsychje: but when i dual boot with win 8 it show me errors .huhh
[12:35] <HLEP_> just connected to wifi straight away
[12:35] <HLEP_> :D:D:D
[12:35] <HLEP_> thanks man so much
[12:35] <HLEP_> i appreciate it!
[12:35] <FloodBot1> HLEP_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:35] <lotuspsychje> sanav: booting wich? win8 or ubuntu?
[12:35] <varunendra> HLEP_, yay!!
[12:35] <HLEP_> finally i can sleep lol
[12:35] <sanav> lotuspsychje: win 8
[12:36] <varunendra> :D
[12:36] <HLEP_> have a good one mate thanks varunendra!
[12:36] <varunendra> welcome!
[12:36] <lotuspsychje> sanav: does it show in grub2 list when holding shift at boot?
[12:36] <sanav> lotuspsychje: nopes !
[12:37] <lotuspsychje> sanav: you can ask in ##hardware or ##windows, but i recommend single install ubuntu :p
[12:37] <lotuspsychje> sanav: you dont need a leak windows :p
[12:37] <sanav> lotuspsychje: but battery life sucks .
[12:38] <lotuspsychje> sanav: you can tweak energy options in ubuntu
[12:38] <sanav> lotuspsychje: can it gave me 6 hour battery ?
[12:38] <lotuspsychje> sanav: it all depends how you configged it
[12:39] <sanav> lotuspsychje: i'm using ultrabook .It gave me 6 hour battery backup with win 8 .
[12:39] <robotti> hello!
[12:40] <lotuspsychje> sanav: maybe this can help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/244804/ubuntu-12-04-lts-drains-my-samsung-series-9-900x3c-ultrabooks-battery-extremely
[12:40] <sanav> lotuspsychje: can i ask you a personal question ? Whats your laptop battery backup  ? ;p
[12:41] <lotuspsychje> sanav: i got an acer aspire one with ssd and ubuntu 13.04 64bit, no issues here :p
[12:41] <sanav> lotuspsychje: with ubuntu as main OS
[12:41] <lotuspsychje> sanav: 4-5 hours battery here, but its a netbook
[12:41] <qmt> hi
[12:42] <sanav> lotuspsychje: thats good .Did you tweak ? or it come with ubuntu as pre-installed OS  ?
[12:43] <lotuspsychje> sanav: no ive clean installed myself (default Os was win7) no energy tweaks
[12:43] <sanav> lotuspsychje: wow ! when i installed ubuntu it gave me hardly 2 hours .
[12:44] <kalakj> hello everyone
[12:44] <robotti> http://robotti.kapsi.fi/filehelperbug.png <-- why it is doing that. It is not working.
[12:44] <qmt> hi everybody
[12:44] <lotuspsychje> sanav: thats low indeed for an ultrabook, did you use intensively?
[12:44] <robotti> I am trying to open exe file and when trying to find app from Internet it will give that error message everytime.
[12:44] <kalakj> i have a problem that, many times my laptop DVD DRIVE automatically ejects
[12:45] <kalakj> this is the problem with UBUNTU
[12:45] <sanav> lotuspsychje: nopes .I just use it for editing my college programs .
[12:45] <qmt> robotti: exe = executable for windows OS, i assume
[12:45] <sanav> lotuspsychje: its a big shame for ultrabook
[12:45] <kalakj> i have never faced any problem in wINDOWS, i have dual boot windows and Linux
[12:45] <kalakj> UBUNTU12.04LTS i am using currently
[12:45] <varunendra> sanav, have you tried powertop?
[12:45] <robotti> qmt: dos. and it is doing that with everything. when trying to open rar. or any format it is not supported in default.
[12:45] <lotuspsychje> !info powertop
[12:46] <lotuspsychje> varunendra: tnx for tip
[12:46] <robotti> qmt: it just tells that failed and always about something about python
[12:46] <qmt> robotti, whats the program called?
[12:46] <varunendra> lotuspsychje, I have it installed, although I never really need it. ;)
[12:46] <sanav> varunendra: aha ! tried ,it only increase battery backup by half hour .
[12:47] <lotuspsychje> sanav: did you load your battery full night before using it?
[12:47] <robotti> qmt: choose app to open file * dialog app
[12:47] <qmt> i have to leave. sorry.
[12:47] <kalakj> robotti: this will not work, you will get error msgs, these files are for Windows and will run on Windows, to make them executable on LInux you will have to install WINE or you can install virtual box, where you can virtually  install WIndows in your LInux
[12:47] <varunendra> sanav, that's what I thought. Did you try to identify the source of drain?
[12:47] <sanav> lotuspsychje: when my battery full , i disconnect it
[12:47] <robotti> kalakj: is it broken?
[12:48] <sanav> varunendra: yup , its because of backlit keyboard . or may be it because of desktop manager like gnome 3 and unity .
[12:48] <kalakj> robotti:  no , try to run same file in Windows on your computer or any other computer, if their is no error, then they are not broken or corrupted
[12:48] <sanav> lotuspsychje: which desktop manager you use ?
[12:49] <robotti> kalakj: no! I mean, that dialog program on ubuntu is broken
[12:49] <varunendra> sanav, like lotuspsychje , I also have win7 dual boot. And I don't get any noticeable difference in battery life in either win7 or Ubuntu 12.04. I'm using almost everything default.
[12:49] <robotti> kalakj: it is doing with every file
[12:49] <lotuspsychje> sanav: unity by default
[12:49] <robotti> kalakj: like mp3 or acc
[12:49] <varunendra> oh, but lotuspsychje doesn't have a dual boot it seems :P
[12:49] <robotti> kalakj: or iso files
[12:49] <lotuspsychje> varunendra: no i clean installed 13.04, didnt use windows for years :p
[12:50] <robotti> kalakj: it is broken and I was asking why!
[12:50] <kalakj> robotti: is it doing with pic file and OGG file, is it able to open file and folders
[12:50] <sanav> lotuspsychje: win 7 can't even install on my ultrabook .It don't support uefi mode .huhh ! during installation , it gave me error .
[12:50] <varunendra> lotuspsychje, I'll be in the same boat in some days. I have totally forgot when I last booted in it ;)
[12:51] <lotuspsychje> sanav: i would try ##hardware for asking default battery life of your hardware
[12:51] <lotuspsychje> varunendra: i found alternate packages enough for ubuntu to fully replace a 'windows' life :p
[12:51] <sanav> lotuspsychje: varunendra : thanks man .I'll try and get ubuntu on my system .Win 8 , some time sucks
[12:52] <lotuspsychje> sanav: win8 is just a bad dream upgrade of win7 :p
[12:52] <Friberg_> after alot of fibbeling, i managed to get aticonfig --initial=dual-head running.. all screens are now the same except one of them which have distorted background, half screen black, other half some noise and stuff like that.
[12:52] <kalakj> robotti: show us the screenshot of the error
[12:52] <Friberg_> I'm giving up, again
[12:52] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: re-ask your issue here once in a while
[12:52] <varunendra> like vista was in comparison to xp
[12:52] <lotuspsychje> varunendra: true!
[12:53] <kalakj> robotti: use  http://imagebin.org/
[12:53] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: at other times, many more experts might solve your issue here
[12:53] <robotti> kalakj: http://robotti.kapsi.fi/error.png
[12:53] <Friberg_> yepp.. ill retry sometime.. this is the second time i tried ubuntu. first time was 10 years ago. that acutally worked fine.
[12:53] <Friberg_> i've been running debian since then
[12:54] <robotti> kalakj: is that normal behaviour?
[12:55] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: maybe mess with workspaces on your 6monitors
[12:56] <Friberg_> maybe. I've never tried linux with more than two screens before.. so..
[12:56] <kalakj> robotti: i am not able to understand completely because i could not recognise that langauage
[12:56] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/21711/multiple-monitors-multiple-workspaces
[12:56] <kalakj> robotti: but try to open any other zip file
[12:56] <robotti> kalakj: it is not about file :)
[12:57] <robotti> kalakj: it is doing that with every file on system
[12:59] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: ok.. apperently someone had the same issue as i had. they tried fedora 19 with kde and that actually worked out of the box.
[13:00] <robotti> kalakj: http://robotti.kapsi.fi/applications.png
[13:00] <kalakj> robotti: open  Ubuntu software centre
[13:00] <robotti> kalakj: ok?
[13:00] <kalakj> and install some other file manager
[13:01] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: here another article on 6 monitors: http://design.canonical.com/2011/12/improving-the-multi-monitor-experience-in-ubuntu/
[13:01] <robotti> kalakj: it does not fix that file manager
[13:01] <robotti> kalakj: because it is about file dialog what use python application interface to find application for file.
[13:01] <robotti> and it is broken
[13:02] <robotti> kalakj: And I was searching information why is it broken
[13:02] <robotti> because it works quite well on other computers.
[13:02] <robotti> installing other file manager does not fix my nautilus
[13:02] <robotti> it is really bad fix
[13:02] <theadmin> robotti: Try reinstalling app-install-data
[13:02] <lmat> I created a chroot and would like to run x programs within it. Do I need to install X in the chroot?
[13:03] <deanrock0> hey, do you know what's the status with mariadb? will it ever replace mysql in offical repo?
[13:03] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: yep.. without usable info :P
[13:03] <kalakj> robotti: oh!  letś try some method
[13:04] <kalakj> robotti:  LOok in privacy settings
[13:04] <lotuspsychje> Friberg_: re-ask your issue here once in a while, im sure they can fix it
[13:04] <lmat> got it, nevermind :D
[13:04] <thisarm> no found utouch
[13:04] <theadmin> deanrock0: Ubuntu's most likely to follow in Debian's footsteps with something this major, so ask those people, might get a faster answer
[13:05] <kalakj> robotti: is there any option to check for applications online , i am using ubuntu 12.04 and what version you are using
[13:05] <Friberg_> lotuspsychje: wil ldo
[13:07] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[13:07] <kalakj> robotti: there are some changes in unity dash, have you recently upgraded your package manager, this might be a bug then
[13:08] <kalakj> robotti: iF you are behind a proxy, then this option may also occur
[13:08] <theadmin> kalakj: It fails reading a local file, that's got noting to do with proxies
[13:09] <kalakj> theadmin: it is not finding applications online
[13:09] <theadmin> kalakj: ...Did you even look at the error message?
[13:09] <theadmin> kalakj: ParsingError: ParsingError in file '/usr/share/...'
[13:10] <theadmin> Happened to me before, normally purging and reinstalling app-install-data fixes the problem
[13:10] <robotti> kalakj: I installed two days ago this system. it is brand new install. and every packages are updated.
[13:10] <robotti> kalakj: I am using ubuntu 13.04
[13:10] <theadmin> robotti: (see my message above, try purging and reinstalling "app-install-data")
[13:11] <kalakj> robotti:  ask theadmin , he knows better than me on this problem, he may assist your better
[13:12] <robotti> kalakj: it seems so :)
[13:12] <robotti> theadmin: it will remove ubuntu-desktop
[13:12] <robotti> If I am going to purge app-install-data
[13:12] <robotti> and software center
[13:12] <theadmin> robotti: ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, it doesn't actually do anything. Not a problem. It will remove the SC though, gotta reinstall that later
[13:13] <theadmin> robotti: (and a few other things, maybe taking a list is best, or maybe you can just "sudo apt-get --reinstall install app-install-data")
[13:13] <theadmin> robotti: (not sure if the latter'd work)
[13:15] <robotti> theadmin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5813817/
[13:16] <theadmin> robotti: Well, doesn't tell much. Is Nautilus working fine now?
[13:17] <robotti> theadmin: no change on behaviour.
[13:17] <robotti> maybe I should re-install?
[13:18] <theadmin> robotti: Eh, that's always an option, if you don't have much important data/settings. By the way, I recommend using 12.04 as it's most stable (generally, stay on LTS unless you're the kind of person who wants everything latest)
[13:18] <robotti> theadmin: my home is in different hdd
[13:19] <theadmin> robotti: Ah, okay then
[13:19] <Lynxx> how do you take a gun a apart?
[13:21] <theadmin> Lynxx: Smash it with a Nokia phone. But really, this isn't the right place for this question -- this is a channel strictly for support-related queries. Try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat
[13:21] <robotti> theadmin: Or I should try to find solution.

[13:21] <kostkon> :/
[13:22] <Haze_> some things never change on irc
[13:22] <theadmin> robotti: Well... Depends, really. If it's a new install then not much could've changed since the initial install so it's probably easy to retrace whatever you did
[13:22] <Haze_> 300 years from if irc is sitll around people will still be flooding :)
[13:23] <theadmin> robotti: So reinstalling sounds reasonable if no other solution's present
[13:23] <robotti> theadmin: It was my mistake
[13:24] <theadmin> robotti: You might try asking this question on askubuntu.com -- you'll probably have to wait a bit longer for an answer, but if noone here can help it's probably the best thing to do. You also don't have to sit online there waiting for the answer :D
[13:24] <robotti> theadmin: it is broken all my computers with ubuntu 13.04. It works right on computers with ubuntu 12.04
[13:24] <robotti> theadmin: it seems to be 13.04 bug
[13:24] <theadmin> robotti: I'm on 13.04, works okay for me.
[13:25] <robotti> odd
[13:25] <robotti> :D
[13:25] <theadmin> robotti: But yes, LTS releases usually have less issues as they're released less often and so they get more polish and less bugs
[13:26] <theadmin> robotti: (and longer support is a bonus too)
[13:27] <robotti> theadmin: Maybe it is broken because I have installed some dev python libraries?
[13:27] <robotti> and maybe different versions of python.
[13:27] <theadmin> robotti: Quite unlikely... I have quite a bunch of those installed myself, and I have both Python2 and Python3
[13:28] <robotti> but it is bad, broken after few days.
[13:29] <robotti> Maybe i am going to run ubuntu on vm
[13:29] <robotti> and take snapshots often.
[13:30] <theadmin> robotti: Eh, I'd just go with 12.04 and stay there until 14.04 is released (or maybe even longer, it is supported for 5 years after all)

[13:37] <seriously_random> how do I make command "for file in $(ls -p | grep -v / | tail -100)" work for file names that have spaces and commas and etc...?
[13:38] <Ic3Kitten> holstein: I cannot connect to the internet wirelessly from ubuntu
[13:39] <varunendra> Ic3Kitten, who were you directing your "still online" comment to :P
[13:39] <Ic3Kitten> nvm lol
[13:39] <Ic3Kitten> lots of people
[13:39] <zykotick9> seriously_random: i'd "guess" if you asked in #bash, they'd probably tell you not to use ls for this...  but i have no idea what they'd actually suggest.  good luck.
[13:40] <varunendra> and what was the problem? Ic3Kitten
[13:40] <Ic3Kitten> :( I don't know how  to connect to the wirless internet that surrounds me Nya~
[13:41] <dn5> Ic3Kitten tell us more
[13:41] <dn5> What version of ubuntu you use?
[13:42] <varunendra> Ic3Kitten, I think you had generated a wireless-info.txt report?
[13:42] <Ic3Kitten> I just finished installing ?Ubuntu? And I havent the slightest idea what makes it better than vista or anything for that matter... I I NEED to know is how to connect  to the ethernet from my laptop
[13:42] <pcuser> i am having some problems importing vpn connections in xubuntu 13.04. i am trying to import 400+ .ovpn files, when importing them using the network-mananger it does not seem to pick up any of the certificates embeded in the ovpn file. i have the certificates in files in my home directory, and manually pointing the network-manager to these files works fine.
[13:42] <dn5> ethernet or wireless don't change opinions. and why it's better then vista or other OSs, you have a lot of infos on Google.
[13:42] <pcuser> im trying to automate the process of importing these VPN connections, rather then setting up 400 one by one
[13:42] <Ic3Kitten> I thought they were the same
[13:43] <pcuser> how do i create new vpn connections in the network-manager via CLI?
[13:43] <Ic3Kitten> ethernet and intranet*
[13:43] <MonkWitDaFunk> Hi, if your having trouble using wifi, you might need non free drivers for your hardware like broadcoms drivers
[13:43] <dn5> Eternet is LAN connection used with kable and wireless is air connection
[13:43] <Ic3Kitten> I like air
[13:43] <dn5> which way did you connect while you were on Vista?
[13:44] <Ic3Kitten> Wifi lmao
[13:44] <andi6803> Hi all, Rhythmbox don't save covers in the cache anymore (~.cache/rhythmbox/album-art). And therefore I don't see any covers on my iPod after transfer. Can anyone help?
[13:44] <MonkWitDaFunk> Theres cat5e and cat6 ethernet supported by my gigabit switch
[13:44] <dn5> tell me the version of ubuntu you use
[13:44] <Ic3Kitten> N00b it down for meh lol
[13:44] <Ic3Kitten> 13.04
[13:45] <MonkWitDaFunk> I have 12.04.2 but how do i encrypte the entire filesystem?
[13:45] <dn5> hm... not sure about 13.04 as I'm on 12.04. Do you have a left sidebar with icons?
[13:45] <Ic3Kitten> yes
[13:45] <dn5> MonkWitDaFunk - TrueCrypt <3
[13:45] <Ic3Kitten> Im not on ubuntu but I remember the options yes
[13:46] <Ways> g'day guys
[13:46] <dn5> Ic3Kitten - you have to press the start menu, the so called 'Dash Home' and you should write there Network Connection. Then open it up and locate youself on tab "Wirless". Just click Add and enter you wireless information.
[13:47] <MonkWitDaFunk> So does the newest long term support release have ext4 encryption using luks?
[13:47] <Ways> need a little help if anyone has a second, i'm limited to 8 colors when i connect to my box via putty
[13:47] <Ic3Kitten> XD
[13:47] <Ic3Kitten> I'll see you soon my friends
[13:48] <dn5> Regards
[13:48] <MonkWitDaFunk> Ways, you might need to configure x11
[13:48] <MonkWitDaFunk> Or x10 idk

[14:47] <BrandonO> I'm here to understand the choices, I'm not too sure on them
[14:47] <EDocToor> jsut=Just
[14:48] <BrandonO> It's a typo sorry
[14:49] <Stanley00> ClientAlive: one more thing. if you use tar and split, and one of your disk lost, you will lost all of your data.
[14:49] <EDocToor> BrandonO, it is always wise to do a backup/clone before you do things that you do not understand.. and never do OS stuff when drinking
[14:49] <mumpitze1> BrandonO: it can wipe your current OS. or it can shrink your current OS and install ubuntu besides. many things are possible
[14:49] <BrandonO> Which option shrinks my OS, that's what I wish to know
[14:49] <BrandonO> I'm going to back up once I know which option to chose
[14:50] <b0red> when i login as root i see all the pty** tty* in /root
[14:50] <Dickstar> Yooo
[14:50] <ClientAlive> Stanley00: What does that mean when it comes to taking the data back off the discs? I have to reassemble the file from all the discs before I can use it?
[14:50] <b0red> why?
[14:50] <b0red> or how can i fix this?
[14:50] <EDocToor> BrandonO, I use Macrium Reflect Free Cloning tool to Clone
[14:50] <Stanley00> ClientAlive: yes, that's how split works.
[14:51] <Dickstar> WHATS COMMON IN A NIGGER AND A UNIVERSE?? BOTH HAS BLACK HOLE
[14:51] <ClientAlive> BrandonO: There is a program called clonezilla which can 'clone' your win 8 install. If anything goes sideways you can use that cloned image to put the thing back just like it was before you started - google "clonezilla"
[14:52] <ClientAlive> Stanley00: So do I use split to reassemble later?
[14:52] <BrandonO> Or so it's just like a Nandroid backup
[14:52] <BrandonO> Oh*
[14:52] <b00b00> hi
[14:52] <ClientAlive> EDocToor: You can install x to any linux distro
[14:53] <b00b00> dealing with this problem in sendmail "relay=aspmx.l.google.com verify=fail" any idea how to get rid of this?
[14:53] <Stanley00> ClientAlive: yes.
[14:53] <ClientAlive> thx Stanley00
[14:53] <daftykins> b00b00: well first off this isn't sendmail support. second, verify sounds like it might try looking for SPF records
[14:53] <BrandonO> I think I'm going to create a partition then install it there, seems easier
[14:54] <ubuntu_installer> HEy guys!
[14:54] <EDocToor> BrandonO, That is right
[14:55] <BrandonO> Many thanks!
[14:55] <EDocToor> ClientAlive, so your saying that I can use KDE and run X within KDE, thanks
[14:56] <ubuntu_installer> Question, I am installing Ubuntu, and I have Windows 7 already installed, so I have drive C, drive D and another unallocated drive, so in the install, I choose "something else", and created a new partition in the unlocated as following: / and /home and swap, now in the option device for boot loader installtion, I have a few options, /dev/sda, /dev/sda1 (Windows 7 loader), /dev/sda5, /dev/sda6 and /dev/sda7
[14:57] <ubuntu_installer> I would like to dualboot it with windows, so which of those options should I choose?
[14:57] <ClientAlive> EDocToor: I haven't done it ever; but, as I understand things, just about any linux distro can have x installed to it (and most come that way). Whether there is configuration involed and how much I couldn't tell you though.
[14:58] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, is it a UEFI based installation?
[14:58] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: Not that i KNOW
[14:58] <ubuntu_installer> *know
[14:59] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, if it is a traditional BIOS based installation, then you must choose "/dev/sda" for grub installation
[14:59] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: when doing in terminal  [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS gives me Bios
[15:00] <Stanley00> ClientAlive: I've just look at split, it has no option to join files, but you can use cat to join them later.
[15:00] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: Wont that break my windows 7? or that will make dualboot ?
[15:00] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, I didn't even know that command to verify that. Thanks :D
[15:00] <ClientAlive> Stanley00: right on
[15:01] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: (long term gentoo user.. Ive used that many times ;p)
[15:01] <varunendra> you haven't begun the installation, right ? ubuntu_installer
[15:01] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: Not yet, I will send you a screenshot where I am, sef
[15:02] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, you should create a Recovery disk from within win7 first. Just in case...
[15:02] <varunendra> then go ahead with installing the boot loader in /dev/sda
[15:03] <jj123> hi trying to use gcc and I continue to get an unresolved symbol error.  Looking at the library which I linked in I see the symbol using nm.  Any other ideas.  The args shouldn't be an issue as the function prototype args are void
[15:03] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: http://i.imgur.com/ko7Dxqv.png check this.
[15:03] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, it will definitely overwrite the windows MBR, but grub will give you the option to boot it - hence dual boot.
[15:04] <EDocToor> ClientAlive, I was under the understanding that X was one graphical GUI and Kubuntu used a Different GUI or Graphical Program.. So to be Clear I should have asked, "Can X and KDE Kubuntu work at the same time, or do they conflict?" as I have a TOUCHSCREEN that requires X and I would like to know If It will work with KDE, if so, I can do the research"
[15:04] <ubuntu_installer> so from the screenshot, I should choose /dev/sda?  Any specific reasons?
[15:07] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: Not really, she wont be using home a lot, since she will install a lot of stuff as root, this would be better
[15:07] <Niggar_Babar> WHATS COMMON IN A NIGGER AND A UNIVERSE?? BOTH HAS BLACK HOLE
[15:07] <zipy> why do u seperate / and /home?
[15:08] <ubuntu_installer> good practise, she wont be staying with ubunut, so I separate home for other distro.
[15:08] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, unless your gf is into some professional development stuff, she would hardly use anything above 10-12 GB in root.
[15:08] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: Yeah she is
[15:08] <varunendra> okkay then, makes sense :)
[15:08] <ubuntu_installer> I am her private CS teacher, so I will blow her mind
[15:09] <EDocToor> ubuntu_installer, so the teacher has a girlfriend.. too much information .. he he
[15:09] <th0r> and the teacher is doing all the work...interesting methodology
[15:10] <EDocToor> 2 Funny
[15:10] <ubuntu_installer> basically she is on her fourth year, and doing two bachelors, so I have to make her CS stronger
[15:10] <ubuntu_installer> oh well
[15:11] <varunendra> ubuntu_installer, do you have the recovery cd handy? Although it shouldn't be needed
[15:11] <ubuntu_installer> varunendra: Yeah, I do, otherwise I will fix it through grub itself
[15:11] <varunendra> yeah, boot repair can do that easily.. :)
[15:12] <ubuntu_installer> Yep, thanks buddy.
[15:12] <varunendra> You're welcome, and good luck !
[15:12] <zipy> but it isnt in the ubuntu repo i think
[15:12] <zipy> boot repair
[15:12] <ubuntu_installer> zipy: no worries,will just edit the grub file
[15:13] <varunendra> zipy, getting it installed is easy enough anyway, or just use the live CDs it comes on.
[15:13] <zipy> :)
[15:20] <Popo> Hi..! I have problems with apt-get installs.. I get this error when trying to install software: linux-generic-pae depends on linux-image-generic-pae (= <IP_ADDRESS>.47); however:   Version of linux-image-generic-pae on system is <IP_ADDRESS>.58.  linux-generic-pae depends on linux-headers-generic-pae (= <IP_ADDRESS>.47); however:   Version of linux-headers-generic-pae on system is <IP_ADDRESS>.58.
[15:20] <Popo> How do i fix it?
[15:21] <vittorioromeo_> hello, a quick question - is it safe to upgrade ubuntu packages with packages from debian/testing?
[15:22] <Popo> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-generic-pae:
[15:22] <Popo>  linux-generic-pae depends on linux-image-generic-pae (= <IP_ADDRESS>.47); however:
[15:23] <Popo>  Version of linux-image-generic-pae on system is <IP_ADDRESS>.58.
[15:23] <reisio> vittorioromeo_: like you probably won't get a disease
[15:24] <varunendra> Popo, what are you trying to do? Did you do a "sudo apt-get update" ??
[15:25] <Popo> varunendra: apt-get install
[15:25] <varunendra> try doing the update first
[15:26] <pfifo> Why cant I log onto ubuntu's freenode server? http://fpaste.org/21987/13726059/
[15:26] <reisio> pfifo: this server?
[15:26] <Popo> varunendra: I did apt-get update now but still apt-get install gives me that same error
[15:26] <pfifo> reisio: im using the webchat, cant connect with xchat
[15:27] <testman27> pfifo: works for me; http://webchat.freenode.net/?nick=testman27&channels=#ubuntu
[15:28] <Popo> varunendra: looks like my kernel version is somehow messed up.. Is there any way I can reinstall specific version of the kernel
[15:28] <varunendra> Popo, also try - "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[15:29] <varunendra> Popo, did the update actually finish successfully ? without errors?
[15:29] <Popo> varunendra: I got this: The following packages have unmet dependencies:  linux-generic-pae : Depends: linux-image-generic-pae (= <IP_ADDRESS>.47) but <IP_ADDRESS>.58 is installed                      Depends: linux-headers-generic-pae (= <IP_ADDRESS>.47) but <IP_ADDRESS>.58 is installed

[15:31] <Haze_> ive decided to switch from to lubuntu cause regular ubuntu was just too slow while running in vmware. will most of the tutorials and doc guids from help.ubuntu.com still be valid for lubuntu ?
[15:31] <Ic3> Gatlin gunz
[15:32] <Ic3> Wifi? anyone?
[15:32] <varunendra> Popo, please do - "cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit" then post here the pastebin link it returns.
[15:32] <reisio> Ic3: I don't believe anyone is named Wifi
[15:32] <Ic3> My wifi does not show up no matter where i look
[15:33] <dispirited> spent a whole day trying to change fan speed
[15:33] <varunendra> Ic3, Didn't you get some help a few hours ago? Sorry if I'm confusing you with someone else.
[15:33] <Ic3> I am ic3kitten
[15:33] <Popo> varunendra: don't have pastebinit and cannot apt-get install it because of those dependency errors but I'll put it there manually...
[15:33] <varunendra> Ic3, yeah, that's what I guessed :P
[15:33] <Ic3> hehe
[15:33] <dispirited> any idea about temperature trip points?
[15:34] <reisio> Ic3: your personal wireless router, you mean?
[15:34] <Ic3> Im connected to (Wireless 3) right now, why can't I connect to it in Ubuntu
[15:34] <Ic3> I cant even find it
[15:35] <Ic3> or any wifi, it keeps asking me to fill out the ssid and bssid
[15:35] <Ic3> and other tabs
[15:35] <varunendra> Ic3, so I remember we did *something* but not anything about what, lol. Please help me recall whatever we have already tried.
[15:35] <pfifo> Ic3, did youi run the wireless debugging script yet?
[15:35] <reisio> Ic3: what's your wireless device?
[15:36] <Ic3> Networking and sharing center on windows  vista~ The properties of my internet(WIFI) ...As far as I can tell, Ubuntu wants me to fill that stuff out
[15:37] <Ic3> Device...device, not familiar with that term... you mean my integrated wireless reciever?
[15:37] <zephyr> I have a directory with many video files.  How would I cat them all into one file, but keep them in sequential order?
[15:38] <pfifo> zephyr, transcode package has an avimerge program
[15:39] <varunendra> Ic3, just follow this post (again, perhaps) : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12350385 do what it asks to do and post here the link to the report it creates.
[15:39] <Ic3> XD
[15:39] <zephyr> pfifo: wouldn't cat be much quicker?
[15:39] <Ari-Yang> what does it mean when dmesg | grep doesn't give any output?
[15:40] <wheatthin> cat won't work
[15:40] <pfifo> zephyr, it might not work as expected, but 'cat dcim*.avi >> output.avi' will do what you asked
[15:40] <wheatthin> unless you mean just by creating a list
[15:40] <zephyr> pfifo: hmm... actually just tried cat * >> bigfile and it only grabbed the first one.
[15:40] <Ic3> ummm ...Yeahhh, I stil have a major minor problem with the pesky little Virus that took my downloading from me(Unable to download anything)
[15:41] <varunendra> Ari-Yang, you have to "grep *something*". If you do that and it returns nothing, it means that term did not exist in dmesg.
[15:41] <Ari-Yang> varunendra, yeah I did, for e.g. dmesg | grep radeon
[15:41] <Ari-Yang> didn't give me anything... though it did 7hr. ago
[15:42] <Haze_> im trying to install lubuntu in vmware...i grabbed the 32-bit version and it says my CPU doesn't have "pae" and please download the correct kernel.... so i grabbed the 64-bit version and i686 cpu and please chooes the correct kernel
[15:42] <pfifo> zephyr, it grabbed them alll but like i said it didnt work as expected
[15:42] <Ari-Yang> where does dmesg get its output from? perhaps I can go and take a look in that specific file, varunendra.
[15:42] <Haze_> anyone know what version i need to install
[15:42] <varunendra> Ari-Yang, then it means that the dmesg didn't have any instance of "radeon" in it.
[15:42] <Haze_> i only see two different versions of lubuntu for windows
[15:42] <Haze_> and neither one of them work
[15:42] <varunendra> Ari-Yang, /var/log/dmesg
[15:42] <Ari-Yang> ah, okay, thanks
[15:42] <reisio> Haze_: lubuntu for windows?
[15:42] <Haze_> reisio installing it in vwmare
[15:42] <Haze_> reisio sorry didnt mean "for windows"
[15:42] <reisio> Haze_: what's your computer's processor?
[15:43] <Haze_> anyways i tried both the 32 bit and 64 bit and both say its the wrong kernel
[15:43] <Haze_> reisio one sec
[15:43] <varunendra> Ari-Yang, another place to look is /var/log/syslog. It sometimes contains something important that doesn't appear in dmesg.
[15:43] <pfifo> Ari-Yang, dmesg gets its info from /proc/kmsg
[15:43] <reisio> Haze_: well they can't both be wrong :p
[15:43] <reisio> Haze_: some reason you're not using VirtualBox?
[15:43] <Ic3> varunendra, Dropbox appeared with a bunch of code i dont understand XD, now what
[15:44] <Ari-Yang> pfifo, thanks. I'll take a look there too
[15:44] <pfifo> Ari-Yang, you cant :)
[15:44] <varunendra> Ic3, it is a script. You had to "right-click" > save link as... to save it as a file.
[15:45] <Ic3> I rightclick and dropbox pops up in another window with the code embedded in it lol
[15:45] <pfifo> Ari-Yang, it only shows the most recent message, then your kernel logger copies it to someplace useful
[15:45] <Ari-Yang> kk
[15:46] <Ic3> lmfao..... <contained a virus and was deleted> just what I thought
[15:46] <varunendra> Ic3, you can just copy-paste it. But that is prone to errors, depending upon browser and your method to save.
[15:47] <Ic3> thats my only option unless I find some God-be-ridden way to fix my *** link scanner...
[15:47] <caleb_> How can make a window manager show up in my login screen so I can use it? I am trying to use rio, and I don't know how to start it before starting another desktop environment.
[15:48] <varunendra> Ic3, don't you have the option to connect via cable on Ubuntu? That would have been easier
[15:48] <zephyr> pfifo: Giving transcode a look, thanks.
[15:48] <Popo> varunendra: I removed some lines from sources.list so that apt-get update finished... Still cannot run apt-get install or apt-get -f install
[15:48] <Ic3> *face-palm* I'll try
[15:48] <Ic3> How ...oh right, I was up all nite lol!

[15:49] <varunendra> Popo, same error again?

[15:52] <varunendra> Popo, how does "sudo dpkg --configure -a" go? You can force-install, but I don't think it would be recommended.. should be last resort in my opinion..

[16:06] <pfifo> A1Recon, geany is a bit tricky to setup for C, you need to use automake or autoconf to create a makefile and a real linux style package, then it works like a charm... however python scripts work right out of the box
[16:07] <A1Recon> pfifo: Do you know something simpler for C??
[16:07] <pfifo> A1Recon, just pull up a terminal and compile by hand 'gcc untitled.c && a.out' or check out eclipse to take care of all the autoconf crap for you.

[16:22] <LinuxNewbish> if  i make it a root can i remove that or i have to remove the module ? pfifo
[16:22] <th0r> pizzadude, have you tried to find out what gdb is?
[16:22] <pfifo> LinuxNewbish, since you new to linux, you really should let others do the bug reporting and concentrate your efforts to learning the OS itself... apport is just a bug reporting tool
[16:22] <pizzadude> gnu debugger
[16:23] <pizzadude> but i want to know why gdb is trying to ptrace a random pid of some process
[16:23] <pizzadude> is that malware
[16:24] <pizzadude> i was wondering if it was malware trying to hijack one of my processes
[16:24] <pfifo> pizzadude, gdb can attach itself to any running program, and when it does itll give that message, if your using gdb then you can ignore it as its not a security threat
[16:24] <drvanon> Hello guys, I'm trying to install mint to my friend's asus r500v. I have I installed it 2 times, and both times it just started windows 8, instead of grub -> linux mint
[16:24] <pizzadude> i didn't invoke gdb pfifo
[16:25] <reisio> drvanon: sounds like you'll have to install grub manually
[16:25] <reisio> alas, someone is going to tell you that mint is off topic here any moment
[16:25] <pizzadude> does gdb ever just randomly try to attach itself to a process? even if you didn't start gdb?
[16:26] <LinuxNewbish> thanks pfifo
[16:26] <pfifo> pizzadude, no, it shouldnt, does anyone else have access to your computer?
[16:26] <pizzadude> nope
[16:26] <pizzadude> and i checked auth logs and there's nothing out of the ordinary
[16:27] <pfifo> pizzadude, do you have gdb installed?
[16:27] <pizzadude> yes
[16:27] <pfifo> pizzadude, do you do any development or compile your own packages?
[16:27] <pizzadude> i compile some packages
[16:28] <pizzadude> but i haven't had to use gdb
[16:29] <pfifo> pizzadude, it could be the configure script checking for ptrace by using gdb... or if you run the test suites they may invoke gdb
[16:29] <pizzadude> yeah but it happens at times when i'm not compiling stuff
[16:29] <pizzadude> like when i'm logging out
[16:29] <pizzadude> or running apt-get
[16:30] <matthiasstreulen> hello, I want to know if there is a good guide for fancontrol on Ubuntu 12.04 on Mac
[16:31] <pfifo> pizzadude, I really cant think of a good way to track down the cause, but if you can somehow figure out a way to reproduce this it will offer some insight
[16:31] <pizzadude> ok thanks pfifo
[16:31] <pizzadude> do you think it's a rootkit?
[16:32] <pizzadude> i checked for them but it found none
[16:32] <pfifo> pizzadude, no i dont, and its being blocked too so nothing to worry about
[16:32] <pizzadude> ok thanks pfifo
[16:32] <matthiasstreulen> I want to switch over to Ubuntu on a day :)
[16:32] <suore> "Cannot mount /dev/sda1/" "No object for D-Bus interface" whada fuk?
[16:33] <pfifo> suore, how did you get that message?
[16:33] <suore> i try mount other disc
[16:33] <pfifo> suore, what command did you run, or what method did you use to try and mount?
[16:35] <suore> 1st method: double click at icon disc. 2nd method " sudo munt /dev/sda1 /media/<username>/mg1"
[16:35] <suore> mount*
[16:36] <pfifo> suore, are you sure you didnt accidentally type '/dev/sda1/' instead of '/dev/sda1'

[16:40] <zephyr> Basic linux question: if I start a process as a daemon and then logout, does that daemon continue running?
[16:40] <Ic3> I don't think I did that right
[16:40] <pfifo> suore, can paste the output of 'ls -la /dev/sd*'
[16:41] <pfifo> Ic3, you pasted the script, your supposed to paste the file the script creates
[16:41] <suore> http://pastebin.com/LFR7b1vH
[16:41] <Ic3> ah, don't I feel stupid, How
[16:41] <suore> maybe reboot?
[16:41] <suore> because i before resizing partition
[16:42] <varunendra> Ic3, that is the script itself. If you are connected via cable, use the command line method instead to generate the wireless-info.txt file.
[16:43] <Ic3> Sounds like fun
[16:43] <pfifo> suore, what did you do to the disk?
[16:44] <suore> pfifo, i resize at5 gparted. before at /dev/sda were 2 partition, i remove partition 1 and resize partition 1 to left. using all disk size.
[16:44] <suore> and resize partition 2*
[16:45] <pfifo> suore, run e2fsck on it, it may just have some errors, make sure its not mounted elsewhere when you run the tool
[16:46] <suore> uuh nor work
[16:46] <suore> file system is not ExT
[16:46] <Ic3> I have no idea what you just asked me to do
[16:46] <suore> is NTFS
[16:46] <suore> fsck also says "fuck yo"
[16:47] <suore> fsck: error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs for /dev/sda1
[16:48] <pfifo> suore, ohh, well then boot windows and use its filesystem checker
[16:48] <suore> i havent Windows, NTFS patition a remnant of the windows 8
[16:49] <suore> i try reboot
[16:49] <suore> maybe it help
[16:49] <suore> maybe...
[16:49] <pfifo> suore, then i guess theres data on the partiton you want to save since your not just deleting the whole thing?
[16:49] <drvanon> I am using gdisk to transform my laptop from gpt to mbr, I used b r g p, and now some (really big) partitions are said to be 'omitted', I do not fully grasp the definition of omitted, nor do I see what it is going to do with my disk
[16:50] <suore> i dont want deleting partition  :P
[16:50] <Ziber> So, I've never really used vi before, but I hear it's a much more powerful editor. Is there a way to delete all lines that match a certain regex?
[16:50] <suore> there is data, yea... from 200gb is 170 used
[16:51] <suore> aaah! 40gb for "/" is okay ? :D
[16:51] <pfifo> suore, youi can try a reboot, if everything is finished as far as gparted goes
[16:51] <Ic3> Please explain What a command line method is, my dad over there snickering at me lol
[16:51] <suore> ill try
[16:52] <pfifo> Ic3, that means you type commands into the terminal instead of using a GUI front end
[16:52] <Ic3> what command rofl
[16:53] <pfifo> Ic3, method #1 on this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2082305&p=12350385#post12350385
[16:55] <pfifo> Ziber, vi has their own channel, try asking there, its likely #vi or #vim
[16:55] <Ziber> Yeah, I found it, thanks.
[16:55] <Ic3> pfifo, I paste that in right?
[16:56] <pfifo> into the terminal, yeah
[16:56] <Ic3> After everything else, then what?
[16:57] <pfifo> it should have made a file 'wireless-info.txt' put that file into a pastebin or upload it somewhere somehow, we need to see it
[16:57] <nitro1> I have Ubuntu 12.04 and USB sound card Focusrite Scarlet 2i4, how do I troubleshot sound on Ubuntu.Thanks.:)
[16:57] <Ic3> your not going be impressed lol but ok
[16:58] <Guest9423> How can i tell ubunto to start using my other partions and drives. I now have 0 byte of free space -__-
[16:58] <coolbuddy> need help with sysfs
[16:58] <Ic3> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5814415/
[16:58] <holstein> Guest9423: start using?
[16:59] <harris> anyone know some beginner robotics kits that are cheap
[16:59] <holstein> Guest9423: you would have needed to know you wanted the operating system to span multiple drives in the beginning.. what you can do now is mount a hard drive and move some data over onto it.. and simlink or just keep track
[16:59] <pfifo> Ic3, no, again, you pasted the script, you need to run the script to create 'wireless-info.txt' and then paste THAT file
[17:00] <pfifo> !ask | coolbuddy
[17:00] <varunendra> Ic3, did you copy-paste the command in terminal ? (wget -N -t 5 -T 10 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57264241/wireless_script && chmod +x wireless_script && ./wireless_script)
[17:00] <Ic3> I cant stop laughing lol...
[17:00] <Guest9423> Your telling me its impossible to set install location in for example software center?
[17:00] <matthiasstreulen> are there guys here that installed Linux on there macs ?
[17:01] <Ic3> I downloaded the link and pasted that command line in it then uploaded it
[17:01] <coolbuddy> pfifo: is it possible to modify temperature trip points in /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0
[17:02] <matthiasstreulen> :(
[17:02] <paulschreiber> I can't install or remove any packages right now. Every aptitude or dpkg command fails with
[17:02] <paulschreiber> dpkg: error: duplicate file trigger interest for filename `/usr/share/icons/hicolor' and package `hicolor-icon-theme'
[17:02] <dmannn> hey guys i installed samba 4 as AD on ubuntu 12.04  ... so logon with "administrator" works fine ... but when i try to add a user in AD  and login with the new user afterwards i get  " wrong password or user name"  ..  is there something additional i need to do to get a user acc working ?
[17:02] <varunendra> Ic3, did you enter the "wget ...." command in terminal?
[17:02] <pfifo> Guest9423, thats right, things get installed according to the linux file hierarchy structure, if you need more disk space either resize your root partiton or mount a seperate partition on /home for your personal files
[17:02] <holstein> harris: i would try a supported channel, or look up about arduino
[17:02] <paulschreiber> I tried the sed trick from http://askubuntu.com/questions/134842/dpkg-error-duplicate-file-trigger-interest-for-filename-usr-lib-gio-modules/203056#203056 but that didn't work for me
[17:04] <Ic3> Running a script?
[17:04] <pfifo> coolbuddy, fancontrol has a config file in /etc/fancontrol take a look at the help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42737
[17:04] <varunendra> Ic3, what?
[17:05] <Vec_> Hey, i plugged in an external hdd via usb to my linux box, how do i access the contents of it?
[17:06] <dmannn> no idea guys ?
[17:06] <holstein> Vec_: depending on if the format is supported by linux, you should see it in the file manager you are using
[17:06] <Vec_> holstein: You know what, my bad. i wrote mount /dev/ssd1 instead of /dev/sdd1
[17:06] <holstein> dmannn: i dont know what an "AD" is[C[C[C..
[17:07] <dmannn> sry holstein :)  Samba 4 as Microsoft Active Directory
[17:07] <B0r3dw15dom> @histo, hi.. I downloaded ssh server into my android .. now how do i connect it to my ubuntu machine?
[17:07] <coolbuddy> pfifo: i don't have etc/fancontrol folder.  i get """ /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed """ on pwmconfig.
[17:08] <holstein> B0r3dw15dom: if you just want to connect the 2, try the server on the ubuntu machine, and a client on the android.. if you just want to share files, plug the android in, or try something like airdroid
[17:08] <pfifo> dmannn, i have no idea about smb4 and ad, but ive run into password problems with samba before, I had to use smbpasswd to setup user accounts, thats all I got, hope it helps
[17:09] <holstein> B0r3dw15dom: otherwise, you would need more info on the server running on the android, which would be supported by the creator of the app
[17:09] <coolbuddy> pfifo: i noticed that fan turns on over the trip point. can i change the trip point ?
[17:11] <pfifo> coolbuddy, yes you can, its all explained in that guide
[17:11] <pfifo> coolbuddy, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42737
[17:11] <Ic3> I have no experiance with this
[17:11] <Ic3> And I lost connection for 7 minutes
[17:12] <dmannn> pfifo :   samba4 AD creates user accounts through Windows RSAT  as it seems .... but thank u so far :)
[17:12] <B0r3dw15dom> holstein, All I want to do is transfer few of my files over wifi from my ubuntu pc to android phone.. I am new to linux as well as android.
[17:13] <Ic3> It would be easy to tell me exactly what to do, word for word
[17:13] <reisio> B0r3dw15dom: the simplest is using bluetooth (_if_ it just works)
[17:13] <reisio> followed by an "ftp" client (andftp) using sshd
[17:13] <pfifo> Ic3, you have to download a script, run it, and then give us the file it created... thats cut and dry, why are you having trouble with this?
[17:13] <holstein> B0r3dw15dom: airdroid or some wifi sharing app that is not supported here would work best/easiset
[17:13] <reisio> followed by a local web server
[17:13] <Ic3> I dont know how to run it lol
[17:13] <samgabbay> hi im going awway for a week and im taking my second pc with me how can i install wubi or ubuntu on it but have the ability to quickly uninstall ubuntu when i need to
[17:14] <samgabbay> hi im going awway for a week and im taking my second pc with me how can i install wubi or ubuntu on it but have the ability to quickly uninstall ubuntu when i need to
[17:14] <varunendra> Ic3, open a terminal, then copy-paste this command in it (without quotes) : "wget -N -t 5 -T 10 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57264241/wireless_script && chmod +x wireless_script && ./wireless_script"
[17:14] <pfifo> Ic3, 'sh ./myscript.sh'
[17:14] <B0r3dw15dom> reisio, the files size is more than a few hundred MB so bluetooth will take a lot of time ..
[17:14] <B0r3dw15dom> holstein, will try airdroid and let you know
[17:14] <B0r3dw15dom> thnx
[17:15] <holstein> B0r3dw15dom: you can let me know in the offtopic channel.. thanks :)
[17:15] <xangua> samgabbay: would't take a usb stick be more easier¿
[17:15] <reisio> what makes you think one wireless solution is going to be faster than another?
[17:15] <B0r3dw15dom> sure thanks to you all
[17:15] <reisio> using a wire just makes it a lot more complicated is all, worth the wait really
[17:15] <samgabbay> xangua,  but the problem with that is that i have to partition and all and i just want to quickly install and uninstall without creating the bsd again and all
[17:16] <holstein> Ic3: you might want to consider getting supported hardware... dealing wth vendors that do not support linux can be challenging, and it may *never* work as you want/need
[17:16] <CarlFK> B0r3dw15dom: usb - the android should give you the option of looking like a usb sortage device - like a thumb drive
[17:16] <xangua> samgabbay: what i mean was a persistent install in the usb stick
[17:16] <samgabbay> xangua,  then how do i uninstall ubuntu after?
[17:16] <Vec_> I did a cp -r folder /folder/dest  --  now my terminal is kinda afk, i can write to it, but it just sits there. Im assuming its copying without showing some kind of progressbar. Is this normal behavior?
[17:17] <xangua> samgabbay: just remove the usb stick ;)
[17:17] <samgabbay> xangua, huh? isisnt thaat the demo?
[17:17] <xangua> !persistent | samgabbay
[17:17] <CarlFK> Vec_: cp -r -v folder... would have given you status of what files it was copying
[17:17] <pfifo> Vec_, yes its silent, use 'cp -v' to make it verbose
[17:18] <Vec_> Alright, thanks guys.
[17:18] <Lynxx> are there any other desktop environments for linux besides gnome and kde
[17:18] <Lynxx> as well as the lxde xfce ones
[17:18] <holstein> Lynxx: yes
[17:18] <pfifo> Vec_, it takes extra time to print all that crap, its much faster in silent mode
[17:18] <suore> Hi, worte before dat i cannot mount my HDD, after reboot i can mount and work all.
[17:18] <zykotick9> CarlFK: fyi, you don't need separate - for each switches, "cp -rv folder.." works fine (less typing)
[17:18] <Lynxx> holstein,  like which?
[17:18] <pfifo> !yay | suore
[17:19] <samgabbay> xangua, is it okay if i instal, it thru the wubi on this page http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.04/
[17:19] <xangua> samgabbay: and the live cd/usb/session is not a demo, it's a full working linux distro
[17:19] <B0r3dw15dom> CarlFK, connecting through usb is what i am doing now.. but wanted to connect through wifi in order to connect without cables
[17:19] <holstein> Lynxx: there are many.. i would start with a web search, or browse something like distrowatch
[17:19] <CarlFK> Vec_: um.. are you really copying eveything in folder into itself?  It may never stop
[17:20] <Ic3> I can do this, I'm not a complete idiot, I havent forgotten anything you have said, I don't understand how to run the script. I'm assuming thats the terminal? And If this is too hard, I will ask my friend
[17:20] <Vec_> CarlFK: :o
[17:20] <pfifo> CarlFK, cp isnt that stupid, it wont do that
[17:20] <Vec_> CarlFK: Im trying to copy a folder that has lots of files into a folder in /srv/storage
[17:20] <CarlFK> pfifo: I was hoping so...
[17:20] <holstein> Ic3: where did you get the script?
[17:20] <Vec_> CarlFK: I wrote (exactly) sudo cp -r Server /srv/storage
[17:21] <Ic3> I downloaded a script from earlier and now all it has on it is that thing you told me to add
[17:21] <CarlFK> Vec_: it's normally better to not make stuff up when you tell us what you are doing :)
[17:21] <varunendra> holstein, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2082305&p=12350385#post12350385
[17:21] <holstein> Ic3: from where? that is where you would get support for the script, from the creator
[17:21] <samgabbay> xangua,   is it okay if  i install it from the wubi here?
[17:21] <samgabbay> http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.04/
[17:21] <suore> But fynny ist dat Windows XP and Windows 7 cannot install at GPT disc  type... Ubuntu normal install at GPT xD
[17:22] <Vec_> CarlFK: I see now that folder folder/dest would lead you guys to believe it was the same folder, hehe, sorry ill try to be clearer in the future ^^
[17:23] <xangua> samgabbay: i don't know what is your obsession with wubi, but do as you wish
[17:23] <pfifo> Ic3, to run a script you type a period "." followed by a forward slash "/" followed by the name of the script "wireless_script" so all combined together you get "./wireless_script", then press enter to execute the command
[17:23] <samgabbay> xangua, its because its easier to uninstall ubuntu after and i dont have to rebuild the bsd
[17:24] <pfifo> holstein, Ic3 is using this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2082305&p=12350385#post12350385
[17:24] <samgabbay> xangua,  by the wat thank you
[17:24] <xangua> i don't even know what you reffer with  rebuild bsd samgabbay
[17:24] <samgabbay> xangua, i mean like the windows bootloader
[17:24] <djono> hello if i install other DE will it slow up the computer?
[17:25] <xangua> djono: why would it¿
[17:25] <nitro1> I have Ubuntu 12.04 and USB sound card Focusrite Scarlet 2i4, every time its I play sound there is 3-4 buzzing sound before it plays the audio normally, same with recording.
[17:25] <zykotick9> pfifo: assuming the script is already marked executable ;)
[17:25] <holstein> nitro1: using JACK?
[17:25] <djono> like if i have kubuntu de on top of unity. Unity wouldnt run in the background?
[17:25] <nitro1> yes
[17:25] <nitro1> ubuntu 12.04 dreamStudio
[17:25] <holstein> djono: you choose KDE, and boot into KDE.. unity wont be running
[17:26] <samgabbay> xangua, cause last time i installed 13.04 i had to remake the bootloade
[17:26] <pfifo> zykotick9, ive never seen anyone be this confused about using the terminal
[17:26] <xangua> djono: unsless You set it to run both at the same time, no
[17:26] <harris> can i use facial recognition to login but if it doesnt see my face it asks for password
[17:26] <wilee-nilee> djono, They will share apps though is all.
[17:26] <wilee-nilee> at least some
[17:26] <reisio> you can't really run them at the same time in the same X session
[17:26] <djono> cool. i like booting into de for a fresh look. Any websites about all linux DE's
[17:27] <holstein> nitro1: ask dick for support.. dick macinnis.. otherwise, try to replicate your issue using the ubuntustudio live CD, and then you can take advantage of the official support avenues.. or, try #opensourcemusicians
[17:27] <coolbuddy> pfifo: the link you gave is confusing. i have a file /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_2_temp with value 70000. i couldn't change that value even with root permissions.
[17:27] <pfifo> coolbuddy, thats right, you use lm-sensors to make the adjustment
[17:28] <reisio> djono: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_environment#Gallery
[17:28] <Ic3> Am I supposed to be pasting the command is some sort of command prompt or the actual script then entering it
[17:28] <xangua> reisio: you can run parts of it, like plasma...can't you¿¿ :P
[17:28] <reisio> parts, sure
[17:28] <reisio> you can't really run two window managers simultaneously in the same session, though
[17:28] <pfifo> Ic3, you need to be at the terminal for this
[17:28] <Ic3> Terminal
[17:28] <harris> can i use facial recognition to login but if it doesnt see my face it asks for password
[17:29] <holstein> !patience | harris
[17:29] <pfifo> harris, if I saw your face I would still make you type the password too
[17:29] <nitro1> Thanks holstein will try
