[00:00] <dt3k> X-warrior: what am I looking for
[00:00] <benedict_> or how to use it for file managers
[00:00] <Barilise> 32
[00:00] <jbald> does anyone know a good disassemble/debugger with UI?
[00:01] <dt3k> My issue isn't hardware related, I stuck the harddrive in an identical laptop and the issue still existed.
[00:01] <jbald> disassembler*
[00:02] <Barilise> while i'm at it, my session restarts randomly, and can I get Netflix to stream?
[00:02] <yeats> Barilise: re: Netflix - they don't support Linux, so that's a no-go
[00:03] <Barilise> :-(
[00:03] <yeats> Barilise: just FYI: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/09/netflix-no-change-in-our-plans-for-linux
[00:03] <yeats> Barilise: what do you mean by "restarts randomly"?
[00:04] <usr13> Barilise: What error do you get when trying to run foldit?
[00:04] <Barilise> the screen will go black for a few seconds.  then I get a log-in prompt andeverything i had running or open has closed
[00:05] <Barilise> no error, it just doesn't do anything
[00:05] <usr13> Barilise: How are you launching it?
[00:05] <usr13> Barilise: Try running it from a terminal window and see what error it gives?
[00:05] <OerHeks> Barilise, i downloaded it, unpack by clickin it, it opens in fileroller, extract, then open Nautilus filemanager, and click Foldit. it starts downloading some stuff and have fun
[00:05] <Barilise> double click on the icon in the folder it extracted it to
[00:06] <usr13> Barilise: What version of Ubuntu do you have installed?
[00:07] <ANGELO1> hi
[00:07] <OerHeks> Barilise, puzzle looks like fun, thanx for the tip
[00:07] <Barilise> Nautilis? and open in terminal...how?
[00:08] <usr13> Barilise: Well, one or the other...
[00:08] <OerHeks> Barilise, cd to the place where you unpacked it
[00:08] <OerHeks> no need for terminal.
[00:10] <Barilise> ok, i got to the place it's unpacked
[00:10] <Barilise> my machine and I don't know Nautilis
[00:11] <Muska> hoping maybe someone can help in here, I asked in the xen channel but no luck.  I did a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 amd64, then installed xen per the instructions on ubuntus site (was really easy).  I then rebooted and found that the console was just spewing full of repeated text from dmesg.  This only happens after I get to the login prompt and then I am unable to use the console.
[00:11] <Muska> I can however ssh into the server no problem
[00:11] <OerHeks> Barilise, nautilus or other filemanager will do
[00:11] <Barilise> running 12.04 LTS
[00:13] <Barilise> home folder?
[00:13] <Barilise> OerHeks: may i pm you?
[00:14] <OerHeks> Barilise, i can't see where you unpacked the game. i made a folder in my ~/home
[00:14] <Barilise> home/Downloads
[00:15] <OerHeks> Barilise, if you cannot find nautilus, open terminal> ctrl + alt + T and type nautilus
[00:15] <yeats> Muska: can you pastebin the errors?
[00:16] <k1l_> Barilise: nautilus is the file-explorer
[00:16] <Muska> yeats I have a picture of the console to give you an idea of some of the output
[00:16] <yeats> ok
[00:16] <Muska> http://geo.animounted.net/xenconsole.png
[00:16] <Muska> stuff like that just flies up the screen
[00:17] <Muska> also nothing new is popping up in dmesg after I boot so I'm thinking it's just something broken with the console
[00:17] <wads> hello anyone wanna make some money? Phyton | PHP | Web!!!!
[00:17] <k1l_> wads: wrong channel for that.
[00:18] <yeats> Muska: so you don't see those messages with 'tail -f /var/log/dmesg'?
[00:18] <steven-> yay gui
[00:18] <Barilise> OerHeks: that pulls up the file system as I normally see it
[00:18] <yeats> Muska: that partial screenshot doesn't provide enough information I'm afraid
[00:18] <blackshirt> hello,good morninh
[00:18] <blackshirt> morning
[00:18] <Muska> yeats, typing that command shows me this: http://pastie.org/5343248
[00:19] <wads> hello anyone wanna make some money? Phyton | PHP | Web!!!!   hit me private please
[00:19] <blackshirt> wads, free lancer ?
[00:19] <OerHeks> Barilise, oke, now browse to the /Download/Foldit/ folder
[00:19] <OerHeks> !ot | wads
[00:19] <wads> blackshirt im doing a project for school and i need help
[00:19] <k1l_> wads: stop advertising in this channel. see the channelrules. its forbidden here
[00:20] <Barilise> OerHeks: ok
[00:20] <yeats> Muska: but the messages don't continue, correct?
[00:20] <Muska> yeats, correct
[00:20] <yeats> hmm
[00:20] <Muska> here is another screenshot I jsut took now http://geo.animounted.net/xenconsole1.png
[00:20] <wads> im not advertising i need help and i will pay for it
[00:20] <OerHeks> Barilise, oke, click Foldit, and a yellow-ish window should pop up
[00:21] <Barilise> OerHeks: the icon?
[00:21] <yeats> Muska: and the terminal is continuing to fill with messages even after boot? (just confirming)
[00:21] <k1l_> wads: php, phyton and web is no ubuntu support. and the support here is free of charge. so please stick to the rules or leave the channel.
[00:22] <Muska> yeats, that is correct.  It doesn't seem like they are new messages just a lot of old ones repeating on the screen in a chaotic manner.  This only started happening after I performed the steps to install Xen
[00:22] <OerHeks> Barilise, there is just one file called Foldit
[00:22] <Muska> I literally copy and pasted from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen right up to the reboot part
[00:23] <blackshirt> wads, actually you can use a lot of framework available on ubuntu repository
[00:23] <irocksu> hi
[00:23] <never_ever> hi
[00:23] <irocksu> why cannot i select my custom font in the terminal?
[00:23] <yeats> Muska: any info in any of the other logs? (syslog, kern.log, etc.)
[00:24] <irocksu> i installed monaco from my mac on my ubuntu by putting it in .fonts and executing fc-cache -fv
[00:24] <irocksu> and tried to edit my terminal profile, but i cannot select monaco.
[00:24] <wads> k1l i think people should mind their own business i came here for help as everybody, im working on ubuntu distro and i need help on the part that has to do with ubuntu on phyton or php
[00:24] <Barilise> OerHeks: there's a diamond shaped icon that says Foldit.  i clicked on it and nothing happened.  i double clicked it and nothing happened.  i right clicked on it and told it to open and nothing happened
[00:24] <Guest5124> Is there a way to repair a instalaion?
[00:24] <Muska> yeats, nothing that seems relevant.
[00:25] <wads> blackshirt i thank you for that
[00:25] <OerHeks> Barilise, you have 32 bit ubuntu, when i look @ http://fold.it/portal/ i only see 64 bit linux ..
[00:25] <yeats> Muska: hmm - and the numbers in the brackets (e.g. [   1.199179]) are not climbing? or are they?
[00:26] <OerHeks> maybe i am wrong and the page detects my 64 bit machine ...
[00:26] <Muska> yeats, I will watch for a while to see if they are
[00:26] <k1l_> wads: you should take a look into the channelguidlines :/  if you have problem on a ubuntu device. describe it and people in here will try to help.
[00:26] <dt3k> I'm on ubuntu 12.10 and my wireless randomly stopped working.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers.  I've verified the hardware switch isn't set to off.  I've checked rfkill.  My wireless card still shows under LSPCI as Broadcom BCM4313 802.11b/g/n.  Any idea?
[00:27] <Barilise> OerHeks: so it won't work because mine is 32?
[00:27] <OerHeks> Barilise, i am afraid so ..
[00:28] <Muska> yeats, they numbers have not climbed however I did see some smaller numbers on a few screenshots, nothing bigger though
[00:28] <Barilise> OerHerks: thank you for your help and patience.
[00:28] <yeats> Muska: huh
[00:28] <Barilise> I Miss Windows!!
[00:29] <OerHeks> Barilise, do you have a problem  another game ?
[00:29]  * OerHeks loves newbies with new games
[00:29] <Barilise> OerHeks: it's a design tool, and it's possible it's not supported
[00:30] <joaojeronimo> hi guys, after deleting /etc/nginx and "apt-get purge nginx", installing nginx again is not creating the file /etc/nginx. How do I start over again ?
[00:32] <pba> Hi guys!
[00:32] <pba> anyone knows how to force a complete reinstall of one package?
[00:32] <magma> how can I set environment variables just for my user?
[00:32] <Barilise> OerHeks: Spriter
[00:32] <michealPW> Wait a minute what? If you're using 32-bit Ubuntu you can't install 64-bit packages, even if you've got a 64-bit processor?
[00:32] <dt3k> true
[00:33] <michealPW> That's weird
[00:33] <michealPW> However if you're using 64-bit Ubuntu you should be able to install both 32 and 64-bit packages?
[00:34] <wads> i have an error says "Unmet Dependecies" with mysql
[00:34] <wads> i have an error says "Unmet Dependecies" with mysql, everytime i try to install something
[00:34] <michealPW> wads: Try sudo apt-get install -f
[00:35] <michealPW> I think that will find and fix the problem?
[00:35] <OerHeks> Barilise, oke, after download, and unpack, use terminal. cd /to/the/folder/ and execute " sh Spri<tab> enter
[00:35] <k1l_> wads: can you show the output in a pastebin?
[00:35] <yeats> michealPW: correct, but you might have to install i386 libraries to get things workin
[00:36] <michealPW> yeats: Jah! Well that's a bummer.. Shouldn't there be some kinda warning on the download page? :(
[00:36] <wads> michaelPW: i try and still give me an error with mysql-server-5.5 / mysql-server
[00:36] <michealPW> Well that's the extent of my expertise, wads :(
[00:36] <michealPW> LOL

[00:37] <brittnee> sup
[00:37] <Fylh_if> guampa:
[00:37] <graingert> wat
[00:37] <EuroNerd__> wtf
[00:37] <metasansana> what he said
[00:37] <michealPW> Well he woke everyone up at least :P
[00:37] <null1024> just a mass highlight
[00:38] <michealPW> hehe
[00:38] <Samanagh> Well played
[00:38] <yeats> michealPW: I think it's common knowledge that a 32-bit OS can't run 64-bit software (not just ubuntu)
[00:38] <brittnee> how am i suppose to browse porn if limechat interrupts ?
[00:38] <magma> how can I set environment variables just for my user?
[00:38] <sertaconay> he sets the alarm
[00:38] <monkeyhybrid> BadThing is a bad thing
[00:38] <jrib> magma: like what for example?
[00:38] <OerHeks> Barilise, after starting it, start a new project. then you can do nothing, download the example spriter file from http://www.brashmonkey.com/download.htm
[00:38] <michealPW> yeats: Win7 I've installed the 32-bit build of it and it can install 64-bit software, as long as your processor can do it?
[00:39] <magma> jrib: to set some binaries in the classpath that just my user uses
[00:39] <nopf> michealPW: no i don't think so
[00:39] <jrib> magma: use ~/.profile
[00:40] <michealPW> No? If I wasn't so tired I'd try and test
[00:40] <magma> jrib: It says that it is not recommended that file: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables
[00:40] <Magiobiwan> michealPW, if you try to run a 64-bit .exe on a 32-bit OS
[00:40] <Magiobiwan> You'll get an error saying that it's not a Valid Win32 program
[00:41] <michealPW> That's interesting
[00:41] <jrib> magma: interesting.  Use ~/.pam_environment then I guess
[00:41] <michealPW> So I guess that's pretty clear-cut advantage to choosing the 64-bit OS.. Hrmm
[00:41] <michealPW> I had a nightmare of blue screens with 64-bit win7 :(
[00:41] <michealPW> Off-topic I guess now, meh. Don't mind me :P
[00:43] <phunyguy_t430s> OK this is driving me nuts.  I have reinstalled the OS several times, with different configurations to try and get this working.  I changed the BIOS around from AHCI to IDE, and back again with no luck... Installed with and without LVM to see if that was the issue, nothing.  Ubuntu can see the drive and mount it, but for some reason grub must not be installing to the drive.
[00:43] <woot-0854> phunyguy_t430s: did you try dd?
[00:43]  * dishe has been away from linux too long
[00:43] <phunyguy_t430s> woot-0854, dd for what?
[00:44] <cowsquad> hello folks. Does anyone know how in the world I can connect to the internet in solaris 11. I know this is a ubuntu channel, but can anyone help me please
[00:44] <cowsquad> I am dual booting ubuntu and Solaris
[00:44] <cowsquad> dont kick me out please
[00:44] <dishe> are there known issues with mouse context in the latest Ubuntu builds?
[00:44] <woot-0854> dd if=/location/ubu-.iso of=/dev/sda1 e.g.
[00:45] <phunyguy_t430s> seems like a weird way to install woot-0854 but is it to eliminate Ubuntu as the problem?
[00:45] <dishe> I've been away from linux too long to know if this is normal, but I just put the latest Ubuntu on an old laptop and I'm finding the mouse gets stuck in context within running applications
[00:46] <woot-0854> phunyguy_t430s: yah totaly monkey logic but used in examples throughout linux books
[00:46] <dishe> like, if running firefox and surfing, I can't click anything outside of the browser (volume, settings, another application, etc)
[00:46] <phunyguy_t430s> woot-0854, installing to the USB stick isnt the issue but you are teling me to do that to the HDD, right?
[00:47] <kickingvegas> hi folks, here using 12.04 dual boot with win7. If I upgrade to win8, will it mess with my ubuntu install?
[00:47] <jpds> woot-0854: What is writing an ISO to the hard disk going to do to help?
[00:47] <dishe> if manage to switch the context to another application (by using keyboard shortcuts) I can sometimes get the mouse to respond outside of the browser, but then it won't let me click within in.
[00:47] <dishe> This behavior isn't limited to the browser. It seems to be OS-wide. The mouse gets stuck inside of a particular context
[00:49] <cowsquad> kickingvegas, yes it will delete everything
[00:49] <kickingvegas> cowsquad: !
[00:49] <kickingvegas> really?
[00:49] <woot-0854> sorry bout the lagg.  ok ya during installations you can use live boots with some recon iso's to write disk to disk
[00:49] <cowsquad> is windows your primary OS, or ubunt
[00:50] <oreth> kickingvegas: man, you're all over free node, aren't you?
[00:50] <phunyguy_t430s> woot-0854, but how does that help me?
[00:51] <Barilise> OerHeks:in folder  in terminal, it says can't open Spri
[00:51] <woot-0854> phunyguy_t430s: because you said grub was giving you static
[00:51] <OerHeks> Barilise, Spri + TAB to complete
[00:51] <kickingvegas> cowsquad: ubuntu; right now have it in a weird config where grub loads by default; can get to win7 when I escape during BIOS/EFI loading then boot win7
[00:51] <phunyguy_t430s> yes but HOW does it help, woot-0854
[00:51] <jpds> woot-0854: OK, that makes no sense.
[00:51] <kickingvegas> oreth: I'm everywhere.
[00:51] <kickingvegas> :)
[00:51] <OerHeks> Barilise, use capital S !
[00:52] <woot-0854> you could format ur disk fat32 and use lilo or grub4dos copy ur kernels and initrd.  if grub is acting up it can be modified.  that trick is just a quick fix.  dont use it if you dont want to
[00:53] <phunyguy_t430s> *sigh*
[00:53] <woot-0854> grub2 is beta plain and simple
[00:53] <phunyguy_t430s> yes but I am not in a grub2 channel, I am in a Ubuntu channel which supports grub2 in Ubuntu 12.10
[00:53] <jpds> woot-0854: No, it's not.
[00:54] <woot-0854> jpds: there is a grub2.2?
[00:54] <phunyguy_t430s> so are there some grub2 commands to run to mimick what the installer does so I may see an error?
[00:54] <jpds> phunyguy_t430s: sudo grub-install /dev/sda --- is what the installer normally does.
[00:54] <jpds> woot-0854: See: https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/index.html
[00:54] <phunyguy_t430s> thanks
[00:55] <Barilise> OerHeks: /Downloads/simplejson-2.1.6$ sh Spriter
[00:55] <Barilise> sh: 0: Can't open Spriter
[00:55] <phunyguy_t430s> guessing I have to mount the installation and chroot...  ><
[00:55] <nog_lorp> Howdy, I was wondering if there is a way to hide the window decorations for a specific window
[00:55] <phunyguy_t430s> jpds ^^^
[00:55] <jpds> phunyguy_t430s: Probably.
[00:56] <phunyguy_t430s> and I have to mount /proc, etc
[00:56] <phunyguy_t430s> (I knew my Gentoo skills would come in handy)
[00:56] <jpds> phunyguy_t430s: Not even chroot, just: grub-install /dev/sda --boot-directory=/media/mount
[00:56] <ubuntuaddicted> how can I force a drive to unmount?
[00:56] <OerHeks> Barilise, are you in the right folder? i downloaded Spriter-free. check the content with: ls
[00:56] <nog_lorp> anyone know how to disable window decorations on a per-window basis?
[00:56] <ubuntuaddicted> i've tried the -f switch. it still says it's busy
[00:57] <jpds> ubuntuaddicted: Kill the process writing to it.
[00:57] <ubuntuaddicted> i've even run lsof but nothing shows up for /media/1tb/
[00:57] <ubuntuaddicted> jpds, nothing shows up in lsof
[00:57] <nog_lorp> woops
[00:57] <woot-0854> jpds: not 2.2 still beta
[00:58] <dishe> exit
[00:58] <phunyguy_t430s> jpds, thanks
[00:59] <delac> what parameters should
[00:59] <ben64> jockey is giving me an error when looking for additional drivers, how can I install the nvidia driver manually?
[00:59] <nog_lorp> anyone have any insights?
[00:59] <nog_lorp> :(
[00:59] <delac> what parameters should  I use with fsch when run from live-usb?
[00:59] <phunyguy_t430s> I think I found the issue already
[00:59] <nog_lorp> or pointers to relevant docs
[00:59] <delac> what parameters should  I use with fsck when run from live-usb?
[00:59] <phunyguy_t430s> i did an fdisk -l to see what the partition numbers were, and it said it is a GPT partition
[00:59] <phunyguy_t430s> maybe I need to clean the disk before the install?
[01:00] <Barilise> OerHeks: yes
[01:00] <phunyguy_t430s> jpds, ^^^^^^
[01:00] <Barilise> OerHeks: that's yes i'm in the right folder
[01:01] <jpds> phunyguy_t430s: Hmm, never dealt with GPT partitions.
[01:01] <phunyguy_t430s> yeah but it doesnt need to be, jpds.
[01:01] <phunyguy_t430s> not sure why it is used as that
[01:02] <OerHeks> Barilise, odd, it works here fine, sh Spriter
[01:03] <Barilise> OerHeks: ok, thanks for your help
[01:04] <[twisti]> hello, i have a file in "/etc/ /"
[01:04] <[twisti]> is that a bug in that package ?
[01:04] <chnops> im trying to install ubuntu on my game pc to try steam for linux, but the installer crashes with some console message about a nouveau GPU lockup
[01:04] <chnops> is there a way to use the closed source nvidia driver?
[01:04] <[twisti]> the package in question is cacti-spine
[01:05] <phunyguy_t430s> it seems I need a program called fixparts to remove errant GPT data.
[01:05] <phunyguy_t430s> working on it
[01:09] <chnops> anyone?
[01:09] <phunyguy_t430s> !patience | chnops
[01:09] <creuset> phunyguy_t430s: I don't know the command: !patience
[01:10] <chnops> nevermind, found a bug for it looks like a known issue
[01:10] <chnops> guess ubuntu just can't be installed on any machine with newer nvidia GPU's, awesome
[01:11] <phunyguy_t430s> chnops, youshould be able to use the closed source driver..... no?
[01:11] <phunyguy_t430s> missed him, lol
[01:15] <phunyguy_t430s> Hmmm it still sees it as an EFI system.

[01:20] <somsip> !register | hakimfifie
[01:20] <phunyguy_t430s> hakimfifie, do you have a Ubuntu related question?
[01:21] <phunyguy_t430s> lol ok
[01:21] <phunyguy_t430s> So is an EFI system, a specific type of Hardware?
[01:22] <phunyguy_t430s> or is Ubuntu just confused?
[01:23] <ben64> How can I install nvidia drivers without the "Additional Drivers" thing
[01:23] <dr_willis> !info nvidia-current
[01:23] <antivirys> ben64:
[01:23] <ben64> I thought there was more to it than just that package
[01:24] <dr_willis> install that package
[01:24] <Daisy> Does anyone know how to restore Unity to defults from terminal in Ubuntu 12.04?
[01:24] <dr_willis> thats all i ever do . it pulls in other things as needed
[01:24] <steven-> phunyguy_t430s, what do you mean?
[01:24] <ben64> dr_willis, if it doesn't work I'll come back and yell at you :)
[01:24] <antivirys> ben64: please looked google.com
[01:24] <dr_willis> Daisy:  the webupd8 blog site has a guide with the exact commands'
[01:24] <antivirys> how to install nvidia driver ubuntu
[01:24] <antivirys> bla bla bla
[01:24] <antivirys> enjoy :)
[01:24] <Random832> Daisy: how much do you care about anything else that might be in your home directory?
[01:25] <dr_willis> all i ever do is install nvidia-current
[01:25] <steven-> wasn't the command just unity --reset
[01:25] <steven-> ?
[01:25] <phunyguy_t430s> steven-, this PC is having issues installing Ubuntu, and the disk is EFI (Whatever that is)
[01:25] <phunyguy_t430s> its not a mac, and I have only seen that on mac
[01:25] <Random832> when I get my window manager misconfigured I just move ~/.* into a temp directory
[01:25] <Random832> and then sort out what's worth keeping [generally just my browser and email]
[01:25] <Daisy> @Random832 Uh I have a seprate encrypted partiton so i dont really mind :P
[01:26] <Random832> Daisy: well my solution involves actually nuking stuff in the home directory, so encrypted or not doesn't matter :P
[01:26] <Marius80> excuse me please,  how can I find out what MTA (Mail transfer agent)  is in use?
[01:26] <Marius80> tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:25              <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN      1766/xinetd
[01:26] <Marius80> xinetd  doesn't tell me much about my MTA
[01:26] <Random832> Marius80: what makes you think you have one at all?
[01:27] <Random832> well you could look in xinetd.conf
[01:27] <Marius80> Random832, because it is a virtual server I rented
[01:27] <Random832> ah
[01:27] <Daisy> @Random832 I keep breaking my laptop, I get all crazy about how i want it to be :L Nuking the home directory sounds fun :P
[01:27] <Random832> i thought you meant a desktop system
[01:27] <Random832> because back in the day, you had to have an MTA for desktop systems
[01:27] <Random832> I remember when debian moved from sendmail to postfix
[01:28] <zvacet> Daisy:  see http://askubuntu.com/questions/17610/how-do-i-reset-my-unity-configuration
[01:28] <Marius80> Random832, is "qmail" an MTA ?
[01:28] <Random832> yes, it is.
[01:28] <Marius80> hum
[01:28] <Marius80> how bald :(
[01:28] <Daisy> @zvacet Thank you :)
[01:28] <Marius80> I hoped postfix would be running

[01:54] <bkfitz> Anyone know how to stop start openssh-server on ubuntu 12.04... i tried /etc/init.d/ssh stop and it just hangs... also tried sudo service ssh stop and it says unknown instance
[01:54] <zvacet> !pastebin wads
[01:55] <hilo> hello, my linuxraid (level 5) has been dropping one of the drives and I'm worried. Can anyone offer any troubleshooting advice? I'm not sure if it's the drive or possibly the enclosure since the drive will rebuild and work without a hitch for a few weeks at a time before the next freakout (which happens during boot usually).
[01:55] <becom33> Im gettting error when I click on the nvidia settings You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[01:55] <zvacet> !pastebin
[01:55] <becom33> and I did that and restarted the machine still Im getting the same error
[01:56] <zvacet> wads : just go to the above link and all the rest will be simple
[01:56] <zykotick9> Daisy: zvacet to use ubottu to highligh another use you need to use a | like: "!pastebin | wads" or to send it privately instead use > like: "!pastebin > wads"
[01:56] <zvacet> zykotick9: I know but forgot my mistake
[01:56] <urgodfather> hilo: typically with at raid 5 you should be able to replace the drive and then rebuild it
[01:57] <OerHeks> wads, bash has a utility called "script" that creates a sub-terminal that writes to file. For example: " script ask-ubuntu.txt "It will create a new bash prompt, and all input and output will be stored in the file ask-ubuntu.txt. do the install again,  then cat ubuntu.txt | pastebinit
[01:57] <becom33> anyone for me ?
[01:57] <urgodfather> hilo, another solution would be to consider imaging the drive with clonezilla
[01:58] <wads> OerHeks : zvacet : http://imagebin.org/235076
[01:59] <becom33> anyone ?
[01:59] <zvacet> wads:  type in terminal  sudo dpkg --configure -a
[02:00] <OerHeks> zvacet +1
[02:01] <becom33> elo ?
[02:01] <OerHeks> becom33, what nvidia card are you using? open terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[02:02] <phunyguy_t430s> so I will ask again, since the last person cant help me.  I am on a new PC, Lenovo M92p, I get the OS installed, but then the install acts like nothing is there at boot... "No Operating System Found" error message from the bios.
[02:02] <becom33> OerHeks, 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT216 [GeForce GT 230M] (rev a2)
[02:02] <zykotick9> becom33: try "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then reboot (or restart Xorg)
[02:02] <urgodfather> becom33: elo is a touchscreen, mostly used with point of sales machines, etc.
[02:02] <becom33> zykotick9, I tried that didnt work
[02:02] <urgodfather> becom33: what was your question again?
[02:03] <bkfitz> Anyone know how to stop start openssh-server on ubuntu 12.04... i tried /etc/init.d/ssh stop and it just hangs... also tried sudo service ssh stop and it says unknown instance
[02:03] <becom33> my nvidia drivers doesnt work
[02:03] <phunyguy_t430s> i go back to the livecd, and it shows a 190 meg fat32 partition (with boot flag), 244 meg partition for /boot, and 465 gig partition for /
[02:03] <phunyguy_t430s> doesnt seem right to me
[02:03] <Erin> where does nginx on ubuntu keep the default .html page? I don't have a /var/www ....
[02:04] <urgodfather> which card do you have?
[02:04] <zykotick9> bkfitz: don't use /etc/init.d/ anymore, use service.  inti.d is the old sysv, and ubuntu is moving to upstart
[02:05] <zvacet> night see you again
[02:05] <persona24> Hello
[02:05] <Erin> can someone tell me where NGINX keeps the default html page on ubuntu ?
[02:06] <bkfitz> zykotick9: so service ssh stop?
[02:06] <becom33> OerHeks,  ?
[02:06] <zykotick9> bkfitz: that works here.  "should" work for you too.  are you sure it's running "ps aux | grep ssh" show more then just the grep?
[02:06] <zykotick9> bkfitz: sudo though!
[02:07] <bkfitz> zykotick9: I just ran sudo service ssh stop and I get: stop: Unknown instance:
[02:07] <zykotick9> bkfitz: are you sure it's running?
[02:07] <chnops_ubuntu> hi
[02:07] <zykotick9> bkfitz: are you sure it's installed?
[02:08] <wads> OerHeks : zvacet : http://imagebin.org/235079
[02:08] <OerHeks> becom33, have no clue, if nvidia-xconfig doesn't solve ..
[02:08] <becom33> shit :/
[02:09] <wads> zvacet : i try and did what you told me still get that error
[02:09] <wads> zvacet : i try and did what you told me still get that error http://imagebin.org/235079
[02:09] <chnops_ubuntu> I was having a problem with the installer freezing with my nvidia GPU due to some bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/925048 ), so I went ahead and swapped it for my crappy radeon, which at least let me install ubuntu - so far so good
[02:10] <xwalk> I'm trying to make a live usb using UNetbootin. The program keeps asking for a root password, but will not accept my sudo password. I'm dead certain it's being entered absolutely correctly. Is there a problem with this program running with Kubuntu 12.04?
[02:11] <bkfitz> zykotick9: ok I got it now.. it was already stopped... thx
[02:11] <chnops_ubuntu> but now I want to install the binary nvidia drivers and put my nvidia card back in, but the nvidia driver isn't listed under the Additional Drivers tab on the Software Sources dialog
[02:11] <chnops_ubuntu> is there some other way to install the nvidia drivers (or at least prevent nouveau from being loaded)
[02:11] <chnops_ubuntu> plus question mark
[02:12] <urgodfather> chnops_ubuntu: i remember there was some settings that had to be modified in grub to make it work right
[02:12] <chnops_ubuntu> oh, hmm
[02:13] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: what distro?
[02:13] <chnops_ubuntu> ubuntu 12.10
[02:14] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: did you try nvidia-current package?
[02:14] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: did you try "nvidia-current" package?
[02:15] <chnops_ubuntu> nope, let me see if I can figure out how to manually install packages :p
[02:15] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: insure you also install 'dkms'
[02:15] <chnops_ubuntu> not very used to unity yet
[02:15] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current dkms
[02:16] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: throw that into a terminal
[02:17] <chnops_ubuntu> almoxarife, ok, looks like it finished installing a bunch of things, can I now just swap in my nvidia card and it will use nvidia's driver?
[02:18] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: now? you saying the card was not installed first?
[02:19] <chnops_ubuntu> almoxarife, no I had to put in the radeon to be able to boot without GPU locksup :p
[02:19] <chnops_ubuntu> or install even, but I left it in after install completed so I could figure out how to get the non-nouveau driver installed
[02:20] <chnops_ubuntu> but I'm guessing that's what I just did :p
[02:21] <almoxarife> chnops_ubuntu: i don't know what will happen now, the card needs to be installed, then the install, but you can afford to see what happens next, reboot when ever you are ready
[02:21] <chnops_ubuntu> ok, back in a bit
[02:23] <netroby> Xubuntu 12.10 is awesome
[02:25] <prplzh> hey my browser has crashed and it's faded grey right now, how do i deal with that?
[02:26] <netroby> what browser are you using.
[02:26] <prplzh> i am using chrome
[02:26] <prplzh> and i believe it's fully up to date
[02:27] <netroby> I am using Google chrome 23, on my laptop with Xubuntu 12.10.
[02:27] <netroby> it's ok
[02:27] <netroby> what is the problem you faced?
[02:27] <prplzh> i wasn't using it, then i tabbed to it and it was faded grey
[02:27] <prplzh> it's happened a couple of times
[02:29] <Stanley00> prplzh: hmm, I don't like chrome on linux, why don't you use chromium? I think it works better.
[02:29] <Recombobulator> I am having some trouble with NVIDIA drivers, and I was wondering if anyone else had experience dealing with them.
[02:29] <almoxarife> prplzh: you may want to purge the package and re-install
[02:30] <almoxarife> Recombobulator: be a bit more specific
[02:30] <prplzh> i don't know how to use chromium
[02:30] <prplzh> i thought chrome and chromium was the same to be honest
[02:30] <prplzh> purging and reinstalling seems like a lot of hassle
[02:30] <almoxarife> prplzh: if you know chrome then chromium is the same
[02:30] <prplzh> for a program that crashed
[02:31] <almoxarife> prplzh: alrighty then
[02:31] <Recombobulator> I had downloaded the proper drivers from NVIDIA, and installed them, but after updating some stuff, the resolution dropped down to 800x600, and the NVIDIA settings panel says "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server."
[02:31] <Recombobulator> They were working before.
[02:31] <almoxarife> Recombobulator: the 'stuff' happen to be a kernel update?
[02:32] <Recombobulator> I honestly don't know, I just said "okay."
[02:32] <Recombobulator> :P
[02:32] <prplzh> i'm really just looking at, how do i close it down when it's faded to grey
[02:32] <prplzh> i can't click anything on it
[02:32] <prplzh> and restart it
[02:33] <Recombobulator> I am fairly new to Linux.
[02:34] <almoxarife> Recombobulator: sounds like a kernel update, remember what you did the first time to install nvidia? you may have to do it again, unless you want to do it a simpler way
[02:34] <chnops> ok it didn't manage to bring up unity correctly, and checking on the console with lsmod, it doesn't seem to have loaded the nvidia kernel module
[02:34] <Recombobulator> I can reinstall them.
[02:34] <dina_> hi
[02:34] <almoxarife> !nvidia | Recombobulator
[02:34] <dina_> i started to receive these messages

[02:39] <mark__> Hey whats the best way to learn on your own about the basics of ubuntu?
[02:39] <mark__> Is there something i should read?
[02:39] <Recombobulator> Netroby, I get this: "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [GeForce 310M] (rev a2)."
[02:39] <almoxarife> Recombobulator: i have a home entertainment computer with nvidia graphics, oneiric even, two apps that need to be installed to keep updates simple are, ,'nvidia-current' and 'dkms'
[02:40] <hilo> is there a way to monitor a file in /proc in realtime?
[02:40] <Recombobulator> Alright, I am going to try reinstalling the drivers.
[02:40] <Recombobulator>  I will check back with you, hopefully.
[02:40] <almoxarife> mark__: the ubuntu server manual is a good d/l to use as a reference
[02:41] <netroby> @Recombobulator ,  you may also see /var/log/Xorg.0.log , see what cause error
[02:41] <mark__> thanks almox
[02:41] <Ben64> how can I disable the button on my keyboard that suspends the system? I want it to activate the screensaver instead.

[02:44] <maetthew> almoxarife, Not sure about dist upgrade command. Last thing i saw was packages being unpacked and processed.
[02:44] <maetthew> root     26225  0.0  0.0  26868  1580 ?        Ss   03:12   0:00 SCREEN -e \0\0 -L -c screenrc -S ubuntu-release-upgrade-screen-window /tmp/update-manager-HG_2TB/natty --mode=server --frontend=DistUpgrad
[02:44] <chnops> almoxarife, I managed to get X to use the vesa driver and now I can just install it through the "additional drivers" window, so I guess all should be ok now, thanks for your help :)
[02:45] <almoxarife> chnops: you used 'jockey' ?
[02:45] <chnops> I'm not sure what that is
[02:45] <ubuntu_user32> Hey if anyone's able to help I have a problem that I don't quite know how to describe enough to make a post on ubuntuforums. While doing certain tasks in Ubuntu 12.04, the screen will just go black and I'll be presented with the login screen. Anybody know what might be causing this?
[02:45] <almoxarife> chnops: i think you used jockey, cool
[02:45] <chnops> ah, ok :p
[02:46] <almoxarife> !jockey
[02:46] <almoxarife> ?
[02:46] <phong_> anyone familiar with svn?
[02:47] <chnops> hum, nvidia kernel module is still now loaded
[02:47] <Stanley00> !anyone > phong_
[02:47] <chnops> and 'modprobe nvidia' gives 'FATAL: Module nvidia_experimental_304 not found.'
[02:47] <chnops> s/still now/still not/
[02:49] <Ben64> chnops: how did you install nvidia?
[02:49] <almoxarife> chnops: i would assume that the module is not part of nvidia-current?
[02:49] <chnops> I used the "additional drivers" window thingy
[02:50] <chnops> though maybe I should not have picked the experimental one
[02:50] <almoxarife> chnops: what driver did the 'thingy' install?
[02:50] <almoxarife> chnops: btw, the thingy is 'jockey'
[02:50] <chnops> good question, I think it did say something but I don't recall exactly, something with nvidia-current-experimental or updates
[02:50] <chnops> unity doesn't come up at the moment so I can't check
[02:51] <chnops> (gets stuck on empty desktop after login)
[02:51] <chnops> checking apt's logs
[02:52] <chnops> nvidia-experimental-304:amd64 is what it installed it seems
[02:52] <chnops> I did install something nvidia related from the terminal before
[02:52] <chnops> let me just paste the log entries, hang on
[02:57] <chnops> http://pastebin.com/HGufSHQy (the entry from 03:44 is from jockey I think)
[02:57] <chnops> the other things I did from the terminal myself
[02:59] <chnops> oh: "Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed."
[02:59] <chnops> I guess that's the problem
[02:59] <chnops> I guess jockey normally takes care of that, but I messed things up by manually running apt-get? :p
[03:00] <Recombobulator> I have solved my problem with the NVIDIA drivers, it seems! I reinstalled the drivers, and installed the package "linux-headers-3.5.0-18-generic." I think the problem is that there was a kernel update, which threw the drivers off. Thanks for your help, whoever helped me!
[03:01] <almoxarife> headers are not installed by default?
[03:01] <chnops> hum, I did get a kernel update too, I guess
[03:02] <chnops> I have 3.5.0-17-generic and 3.5.0-18-generic installed
[03:03] <almoxarife> chnops: look at the 'man' for dkms , i forget which option is for 'status' , if dkms is seeing your nvidia module your problems are solved as far as kernel updates
[03:03] <chnops> $ dkms status
[03:03] <chnops> nvidia-experimental-304, 304.48: added
[03:04] <chnops> though 'modprobe nvidia' says the module was not found
[03:04] <almoxarife> chnops: cool
[03:04] <chnops> (xorg log contains an error too from nvidia_drv.so not finding the kernel module)
[03:07] <almoxarife> chnops: install 'inxi' and then run inxi -G
[03:08] <chnops> hm, says unable to locate package inxi
[03:08] <chnops> if I  try apt-get install
[03:09] <cjae> where is the 12.10 update?
[03:10] <cjae>  i see no option to upgrade to 12.10
[03:11] <cjae> !1210
[03:11] <jiltdil> How do i protect my single usermode in ubuntu , don't want to use grub password. Is there any way to do this?
[03:11] <chnops> almoxarife, ok I got it working now
[03:11] <almoxarife> chnops: share the output, lets see what you got
[03:12] <chnops> I did the same thing Recombobulator mentioned, installed linux-headers-3.5.0-18-generic, then reinstalled nvidia-experimental-304 and now it works
[03:12] <chnops> ah no I didn't actually get inxi to install
[03:12] <almoxarife> chnops: i don't get it, i thought headers were installed by default
[03:13] <chnops> yeah, weird
[03:13] <chnops> it's entirely possible I screwed something up somehow
[03:14] <simplew> where is possible who have done ubuntu one translations?
[03:14] <ubuntu637> Hey, I'm about to finish an ubuntu install on my laptop and I'm wondering, there are two graphics drivers here; an intel driver for the main screen display and an extra VGA and HDMI adapter which are controlled by the Nvidia Geforce 540M chipset.  I've got two graphics makes on my laptop, so how will I install both drivers?  I've only ever dealt with one nvidia driver in the past.
[03:14] <almoxarife> chnops: i don't think so, you are not the only person who mentions having to install headers.
[03:14] <chnops> ah
[03:14] <almoxarife> i never was without headers
[03:15] <almoxarife> and i didn't know to have them to begin with, did learn later why i had to have them
[03:15] <jiltdil> Any One Have No Idea?
[03:16] <almoxarife> jiltdil: ask the question again
[03:16] <jiltdil> How do i protect my single usermode in ubuntu , don't want to use grub password. Is there any way to do this?
[03:16] <jiltdil> almoxarife,
[03:16] <maetthew> Urgent problem: I started a 'do-release-upgrade' through SSH. Then the SSH connection died. Before the installation it said something about that it started it in a duplicate SSH session with a port number. Anyone know that port number?
[03:17] <Erin> im banging my head against the wall trying to get my ubuntu w/ nginx to download a file from one of the locally mounted HD's , all it does is download the index.html file....
[03:17] <almoxarife> jiltdil: i have no clue what that means, over my head
[03:19] <metap0d> Hi everyone, I tried to install ubuntu with a flash drive but part way through the install it said my image was corrupt. It looks like GRUB only partially installed on my hard drive. I found a boot repair tool to fix grub except that my windows partition is missing
[03:19] <metap0d> could help me to fix grub from inside my ubuntu live cd?
[03:19] <metap0d> i don't have another computer use to make another bootable usb
[03:19] <almoxarife> maetthew: port-sniff your server, locate the open port
[03:19] <metap0d> i'm trying to update grub from inside my ubuntu live cd
[03:19] <metap0d> to include my windows partition / os
[03:20] <bobweaver> metap0d, so you are on live cd ?
[03:20] <metap0d> bobweaver: right now i'm talking on the live cd from a java applet
[03:20] <bobweaver> metap0d,  can you paste the output of    sudo fdisk -l
[03:20] <bobweaver> !pastebin | metap0d
[03:20] <metap0d> bobweaver: Nothing comes up
[03:20] <muji> hello, would any1 know how i can upgrade my o.s without having to redownload the iso onto a cd and reinstalling?
[03:21] <bobweaver> Oo
[03:21] <xangua> !upgrade | muji
[03:21] <metap0d> bobweaver: I do see the "210gb filesystem" on my desktop which is my windows partition
[03:21] <bobweaver> metap0d,  pastebin ?
[03:22] <metap0d> bobweaver: Sorry what would you like on pastebin
[03:22] <bobweaver> metap0d,      sudo apt-get -y  install pastebinit  && sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[03:22] <bobweaver> then give us the link
[03:23] <metap0d> bobweaver: I'm certainly new to linux but I don't think i'm that new. http://pastebin.com/ZgwAkbxN
[03:23] <metap0d> bobweaver: :o
[03:24] <jud> Just installed 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin on the other machine. At first tried updating from 9.1. It didn't work. I thought it might be something to do with the integration so I took the system hard drive out and started fresh with a new one, from a disk. same problem. It boots up but can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes a
[03:24] <metap0d> bobweaver: I've concluded I need to run update-grub on my /dev/sda2 partition, but I don't know how to mount it correctly
[03:25] <bobweaver> metap0d,  you need to mount /dev/sda3 then install grub to it
[03:25] <metap0d> bobweaver: I can mount it through the file manager by right clicking on it and hitting "mount volume" .. but it doesn't mount to /dev/sda3
[03:26] <metap0d> bobweaver: which is where my confusion lies : /
[03:27] <bobweaver> metap0d,  so      sudo  mount /dev/sda3 /mnt        then   sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda   then   cd    then     sudo umount /mnt           then reboot into linux then sudo update-grub       then sudo reboot
[03:27] <uabn93> is anyone familiar with rsync?
[03:28] <bobweaver> uabn93,  I know alittle about it for backups
[03:29] <uabn93> bobweaver: cool. Say you sync from A to B. then you delete something on A and sync again. what happens to the files that were on B from the first sync?
[03:30] <blackness> uabn93, they should remain unless you use the compare flags.
[03:32] <uabn93> blackness: i use grsync because im new to this. i dont see compare flags. is there another name for it?
[03:32] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:32] <metap0d_> bobweaver: when I rebooted into the linux live cd and issued sudo update-grub I got /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).
[03:33] <blackness> one moment uabn93
[03:34] <cordoval> how to keep opevpn running live?
[03:34] <blackness> --compare-dest=DIR      also compare destination files relative to DIR
[03:34] <cordoval> it shuts down everyonce in a while
[03:35] <uabn93> blackness: got it. thanks
[03:35] <gmachine_24> Greetings. I assume that I can boot a computer using Ubuntu on a microSD card plugged into a USB port with an adapter - since I can boot from a USB thumb drive. Correct? Or not.
[03:35] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  no that is not what I was saying please read again  .  So you need to install grub to your Linux OS which from your paste is located under  /dev/sda3   after that is *mounted*  you install grub to it.     after that you can unmount the partition and then reboot into your linux os Not The live cd       then you run sudo update-grub   then reboot and you will have everything
[03:36] <blackness> gmachine_24, yes, but it wont last long. i burnt out a new 8GB one in a day
[03:36] <metap0d_> bobweaver: In the middle of the process of installing ubuntu, the install failed and told me the image was bad, so I don't have a working linux os to boot into, just windows
[03:36] <gmachine_24> blackness, really, interesting.
[03:36] <metap0d_> bobweaver: when I try to boot in I get a black screen with a long list of errors related to missing files and then it reboots
[03:36] <blackness> those MicroSD cards are not designed for constant R/W
[03:36] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  start fresh and re-install
[03:37] <gmachine_24> blackness, got it. but the thumb drive is ok............??
[03:37] <blackness> Yep.
[03:37] <gmachine_24> or is that just for emergency repair
[03:37] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I tried twice, the image i wrote to this usb stick is 100% bad
[03:37] <edgy> hi, how can I view the cmyk layers on my pdf?
[03:37] <blackness> ive had the same ubuntu 8.04 on a USB stick and used it over and over and over for like 3 years
[03:37] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I only have my windows partition to create new bootable usb's from
[03:37] <bobweaver> md5sum | metap0d_
[03:37] <gmachine_24> blackness, ok. cool.
[03:37] <bobweaver> !md5sum | metap0d_
[03:37] <gmachine_24> metap0d, download it again and do a checksum
[03:37] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I did that, it doesn't match :p
[03:38] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  maybe get new image then ?
[03:38] <gmachine_24> metap0d_, then d/l it again
[03:38] <blackness> metap0d_, try using usb-creator-??? (gtk/kde)
[03:38] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I'm not trying to be a jerk ><, but the only operating I could download to (windows) is inaccessible because this attempt at installing ubuntu failed
[03:38] <metap0d_> i can't download / install a new ubuntu image to the usb stick i'm live booting from to talk to you all of you for assistance
[03:39] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  you said that windows was installed ?
[03:39] <bobweaver> no ?
[03:39] <gmachine_24> metap0d_, so your comp won't boot to Windows?
[03:39] <metap0d_> bobweaver: that's why i'm trying to repair grub to show the windows partition so i can re-download, prepare the USB and start again
[03:39] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:39] <blackness> metap0d_, what ubuntu are you using?
[03:39] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Windows is installed, it just isn't visible on the grub menu
[03:40] <metap0d_> blackness: Ubuntu 12.10 64bit
[03:40] <bobweaver> but grub is broken I see
[03:40] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ but can you boot to Windows?
[03:40] <blackness> what ISO is on your usb stick metap0d_ ?
[03:40] <gmachine_24> I assume the answer is no
[03:40] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: hm... i'm not sure I'm very new at this ... I don't see why I wouldn't be able to if the grub entry were there. All I see is Ubuntu Linux and some memtest entries
[03:40] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  what is ram on computer ?       free -m
[03:41] <Febul> Why is my httpd.conf file in /etc/apache2 empty?
[03:41] <blackness> !windows
[03:41] <metap0d_> bobweaver: 4gb total, 2,381 free
[03:41] <blackness> crap. not what i was looking for.
[03:41] <[twisti]> Febul: the data is spread over other files
[03:41] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  and you are using usb ?  do you have a free cd drive atm ?
[03:41] <metap0d_> is there no way to run update-grub on the hard disk from inside the live cd?
[03:42] <gmachine_24> Gang, what about his using something like Supergrubdisk or rescatux?
[03:42] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Unfortunately no ... I'm really in a crummy situation
[03:42] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:42] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I only have 1 USB stick big enough for Ubuntu which is this one, and no other computers, I even thought about using an mp3 player
[03:42] <gmachine_24> ok nevermind. He can't download and burn a CD.
[03:42] <[twisti]> Febul: most of it is in apache2.conf, some in conf.d and in the sites/mods available folders
[03:42] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  because the install went bad I dont know try to chroot into the mnt
[03:42] <uabn93> blackness: about --compare-dest=DIR, how is this different from --delete delete extraneous files from dest dirs?
[03:42] <[twisti]> Febul: are you looking for anything in particular ?
[03:42] <Febul> [twisti]: Where is the configuration for modules loaded? I would like to load mod wsgi.
[03:42] <gmachine_24> can't he go to the /dev/sda partition and install grub?
[03:43] <bobweaver> so metap0d_  let us see    sudo fdisk -l    again
[03:43] <[twisti]> Febul: for starters, you shouldnt load modules by changing config files
[03:43] <gmachine_24> I did that recently to fix a grub/boot problem
[03:43] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  never mind I found the last paste
[03:43] <gmachine_24> from a live CD
[03:43] <blackness> he can chroot to it.
[03:44] <bobweaver> so metap0d_  open termina and enter in          sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
[03:44] <Febul> [twisti]: Well I've installed mod-wsgi from the APT. libapache2-mod-wsgi, is that enough?
[03:44] <blackness> he needs to mount the slice, and bind procfs then chroot to /mnt/ and update-grub
[03:44] <metap0d_> then chroot /mnt
[03:44] <metap0d_> ?
[03:44] <[twisti]> Febul: i dont see that particular mod, you may have to google how to use that in ubuntu, oh yeah, or that
[03:44] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  let us know when you did that ^^^
[03:44] <[twisti]> then do
[03:44] <[twisti]> sudo a2enmod wsgi
[03:44] <[twisti]> or whatever its called
[03:44] <Febul> [twisti]: Have you ever used mod_wsgi?
[03:44] <[twisti]> you can check /etc/apache2/mods-available
[03:44] <bobweaver> so metap0d_  open terminal *  and enter in          sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
[03:45] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:45] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Done, I don't know if I went to far but afterward I chroot /mnt
[03:45] <metap0d_> bobweaver: the terminal prompt has changed
[03:45] <[twisti]> i have not, which is why i cant tell you about it specifically, only about how youre supposed to load mods in general
[03:45] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:45] <metap0d_> bobweaver: now could I issue sudo update-grub /dev/sda ?
[03:45] <dsnyders> !virtual
[03:45] <bobweaver> metap0d_,   what does       cd /mnt  && ls      say ?
[03:45] <Febul> [twisti]: It says that it's loaded, thanks.
[03:45] <bobweaver> a bunch of stuff ?
[03:46] <Febul> If anyone here has ever used mod_wsgi/flask, some guided assistance would be greatly appreciated :)
[03:46] <[twisti]> Febul: dont forget that you might have to restart apache2
[03:46] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I was able to change into /mnt without any issues, but ls shows nothing
[03:46] <metap0d_> bobweaver: sorry did you want me doing this before chrooting in ><
[03:46] <bobweaver> cool    metap0d_  what does     whoami      say ?
[03:47] <metap0d_> bobweaver: root
[03:47] <Febul> [twisti]: Thanks :)
[03:47] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  enter in        sudo update-grub
[03:47] <bobweaver> what happens ?
[03:47] <Febul> [twisti]: How do I restart from the command line again?
[03:47] <[twisti]> sudo service apache2 restart
[03:47] <metap0d_> bobweaver: /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).
[03:48] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show.                                                                                I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:48] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  what is output of        mount
[03:48] <dsnyders> !ramdisk
[03:48] <jud> Can anyone offer a link that will help sort it out?
[03:48] <Febul> [twisti]: Thaks
[03:48] <metap0d_> bobweaver: http://pastebin.com/5LKgZzz1
[03:48] <[twisti]> oh, also, youre supposed to do something very similar if you have site-specific config: put the configs into /etc/apache2/sites-available, and then do "sudo a2ensite sitename"
[03:49] <bobweaver> metap0d_,     type in    exit
[03:49] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Looks like I'm back in the live cd prompt again
[03:49] <bobweaver> then metap0d_      cd ~  && sudo umount /mnt
[03:49] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Done
[03:50] <bobweaver> metap0d_, let us see       mount     again
[03:50] <gmachine_24> metap0D_ this is the command he needs to run: sudo grub-install /dev/sdaXX
[03:51] <gmachine_24> sorry but without the partition # because grub is in the MBR and not on a partition
[03:51] <bobweaver> gmachine_24,  you mean    sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[03:51] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Bob had me run that right before I rebooted
[03:51] <metap0d_> bobweaver: http://pastebin.com/S2Mws0dt
[03:51] <Vbitz> alright I'm trying to ssh between 2 servers, one's at home and one's a vps with linode. both are running recent versions ubuntu. I can ssh using key auth between myself on my macbook and my vps and me and my home server but I can't even connect using password auth trying to get from my home-server to my vps
[03:51] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  he is right but it must be mounted and chrooted first
[03:51] <bobweaver> so
[03:52] <jud> Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??  Appropriate troubleshooting link anyone?
[03:52] <bobweaver> sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
[03:52] <metap0d_> bobweaver: OK
[03:52] <bobweaver> metap0d_,    ^^  then  then cd /mnt
[03:52] <gmachine_24> but you don't want to install it to a partition
[03:53] <metap0d_> bobweaver: OK
[03:53] <bobweaver> Metapod sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[03:53] <bobweaver> then
[03:53] <metap0d_> bobweaver: OK
[03:53] <bobweaver> chroot /mnt
[03:53] <bobweaver> then
[03:54] <bobweaver> sudo update-grub
[03:54] <bobweaver> what happens ?
[03:54] <metap0d_> bobweaver: The same error unfortunately: /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).
[03:54] <gmachine_24> "From here, find only the drive name, ignore the partition number, that is, for partitions labeled "root", "data2", "fat", "home" and "swap" it's all still just sda. This is due to the fact that GRUB is installed in the MBR of the drive, and not on a partition."
[03:54] <bobweaver> huh gmachine_24  ^^ can help   ?
[03:55] <metap0d_> I hope so? :)
[03:55] <bobweaver> gmachine_24,     this is metap0d_   drive   http://pastebin.com/ZgwAkbxN
[03:55] <chimney> hi
[03:55] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I'd be very grateful :)
[03:56] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ if your drive is /dev/sda then at a command prompt run $sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[03:56] <chimney> my via c3 is freezing while installation when cpu goes under 800Mhz
[03:56] <jud> I there a room specific to 12.01.4?? Updated 12.01.4 - Precise pangolin from 9.10 . when it boots, I can't access any launchers, if they show. I can't shut it down from the inside. Where ever the mouse passes, in its path, these blocks of pixelated cubes appear??
[03:56] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: DO you want me to unmount /dev/sda3 then?
[03:56] <chimney> my via c3 is freezing while installation when cpu goes under 800Mhz, how do I set the cpu freq to 1Ghz?
[03:57] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ yes
[03:57] <chimney> my via c3 is freezing while installation when cpu goes under 800Mhz, how do I set the cpu freq to 1Ghz? as boot param?
[03:57] <bobweaver> gmachine_24,  keep in mind that his 1st install did not install all the way so who knows what on sda3 and also he can not boot to windows to get a new image. from which he says that the image that he had the md5sum is in fact bad that is all I know
[03:57] <bobweaver> or gathered if that even helps
[03:57] <gmachine_24> I know. But what else is he going to do? He can't d/l a repair disk.
[03:58] <chimney> help
[03:58] <chimney> :)
[03:58] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ did we lose you?
[03:58] <bobweaver> can not partition usb either to make room
[03:58] <orlok> Has anybody here used Ubuntu in a PCI-DSS l1 compliant enviroment?
[03:58] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Kind of, I've been following linux tutorials in an ubuntu virtual machine for a few weeks so I'm picking things up here and there
[03:59] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ did you try that command after unmounting /dev/sda
[03:59] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: when I issue sudo update-grub I get: http://pastebin.com/N7g2yZ3y
[03:59] <orlok> Or, does anybody know of any Ubuntu hardening guides?
[04:00] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I don't know if I did it right but I did sudo umount /mnt
[04:00] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  you can always enter in    mount     to see what is mounted where
[04:00] <jud> Is there a channel for 12.04.1?
[04:01] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Ah I see, well looks like it's not mounted anymore
[04:01] <bobweaver> jud what is up with unity ?  I dont understand your question
[04:01] <bobweaver> I wonder if there is neboot in live cds ?
[04:02] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ what do you get when you run sudo fdisk -l
[04:02] <bobweaver> netboot *
[04:02] <chimney> hi I have an problem with ubuntu and a via c3 cpu freezing ...
[04:02] <gmachine_24> I know you've covered this already but I missed it
[04:02] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I don't see anything in a terminal, bob had me run it to paste to pastebin and that actually had some output .. but I don't remember the command :/
[04:02] <jud> bobweaver: ran update from 9.10 to 12.04.1 but it didn't work
[04:03] <bobweaver> jud,  did you back up your home dir ?
[04:03] <gmachine_24> metap0d_   type 'pwd' without the quotes and tell me what you get
[04:03] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: /home/liveuser
[04:03] <bobweaver> liveuser ?
[04:04] <Addison> Hiya everyone!
[04:04] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ I don't mean to be dense but if you type sudo fdisk -l you get nothing?
[04:05] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Yes literally nothing, it executes and just goes to another prompt
[04:05] <jud> bobweaver: no,  I figured that if it didn't work, i'd reinstall onto a new hard drive from dvd and just access my old files that way
[04:05] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ well that's messed up.
[04:05] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: bob had some black magic before
[04:05] <Addison> Is there anyone here who has heard of Tinyfugue?
[04:05] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ such as?
[04:05] <bobweaver> jud,  you checked to make sure that your vga card mod(driver ) is loaded ?
[04:06] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: He had me run the fdisk command or a variant of it and then had some pastebin package installed, the pastebin link contained output from fdisk -l
[04:06] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I don't know why it isn't in my terminal
[04:06] <phillijw_> Is there a nice app that will allow me to remote into various machines including WinXP?
[04:06] <orlok> phillijw_: rdesktop, or vnc
[04:07] <orlok> phillijw_: that all really depends on what sort of remote service agent your WinXP is running
[04:07] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ type 'cd ..' without the quotes
[04:07] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  this can be figured out real fast install pastebinit       sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[04:07] <gmachine_24> that's cd and a space and two periods
[04:07] <phillijw_> orlok: its not running anything 3rd party
[04:07] <gmachine_24> ahhh. ok. kudos bobweaver
[04:07] <jud> bobweaver: I've only dabbled with linux and computer tech in general. I'll need to check what that is. What are the implications?
[04:07] <orlok> phillijw_: Well, maybe you should be asking, by default, what sort of remote access capabilities does Windows XP have?
[04:07] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: http://pastebin.com/9YJnX94E
[04:08] <orlok> phillijw_: as thats going to define what sort of tools you can use to conenct to it.
[04:08] <codygman> What is the mail transfer agent referred to as in update-alternatives? I see "mt"
[04:08] <bobweaver> jud,  so on distro upgrades the 3rd party stuff gets turned off so if you are running say nvidia then you might have to re-install. But can you get to a command prompt
[04:08] <codygman> well mt is magnetic tape driver operation so not that lol
[04:09] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  that is not from the correct pastebin ;)
[04:09] <codygman> Does ubuntu have a MTA installed by default?
[04:09] <metap0d_> bobweaver: Sorry?
[04:09] <jud> bobweaver: can't get there but I pulled the system drive out, put a fresh one in, reinstalled as i thought i might have to....same problem
[04:10] <metap0d_> oh
[04:10] <metap0d_> oops
[04:10] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  I mean that you did not enter the commands that I asked
[04:10] <metap0d_> bobweaver: I entered sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[04:10] <Addison> I really could use just a little bit of help if anyone here is familiar with Tinyfugue.
[04:10] <bobweaver> jud,  how far does it boot up till lightdm (login )
[04:10] <bobweaver> ?
[04:11] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ Windows 95? Really?
[04:11] <uabn93>   /disconnect
[04:11] <uabn93> sorry
[04:11] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Where do you see that? I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate
[04:11] <bobweaver> metap0d_,  when I enter that in I get this      http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341693/
[04:11] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: that's my flash stick, which formatted as FAT32
[04:11] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ on /dev/sdb
[04:12] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ from the pastebin
[04:12] <jud> bobweaver: it lets me log in but then i can only move the mouse around and as i do this, pixelated cubes appear and lie in the path of the mouse
[04:12] <metap0d_> gmachine_24, bobweaver
[04:12] <metap0d_> http://pastebin.com/KEEw3Zzb
[04:12] <metap0d_> oops
[04:13] <bobweaver> jud,  when you get to the lightdm menu can you press ctrl+alt+f1   and log in to prompt ?
[04:13] <bobweaver> shell prompt *
[04:14] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ when you boot from your hard drive and you get the splash menu with ubuntu and memtest did you try to enter the ubuntu recovery mode?
[04:14] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Yeah, a few times ... it seems to through the boot process fine but when it hits the login manager I get a massive list of missing files and then my machine reboots
[04:14] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ the two pastebins are identical
[04:15] <jud> bobweaver: i'm not at that machine right at the minute...could that be a way in do you think?
[04:15] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ well I'm guessing you're screwed.
[04:15] <iFlip> I know this is off topic for this room but I can't find any channels that have anyone talking about this topic. For me, this is probably the nearest...
[04:15] <iFlip> Does anyone know about SickBeard?
[04:16] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Is there no way at grub to specify an existent but not listed partition to boot into? : (
[04:16] <iFlip> Was wondering if anyone knew of a related program to SickBeard that takes movie queries
[04:16] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ you must have access to another computer.
[04:16] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ your OS is missing files.
[04:16] <bobweaver> jud,  I know that it is if you can get there then install pastebinit     sudo apt-get install pastebinit        then you can show us your card   like      lspci -vnn | pastebinit
[04:16] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ upi
[04:16] <bobweaver> jud,  then you can start debuging from there
[04:16] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ you're trying to boot to an incomplete OS
[04:16] <bobweaver> jud I would also run nux test from there
[04:16] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: that's why i came in here in the first place :P
[04:16] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ or a bad install
[04:17] <escott> metap0d_, just get to the grub console and start issuing commands
[04:17] <bobweaver> jud,  /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p
[04:17] <jud> bobweaver: why do you think the same would happen after a fresh install?
[04:17] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: my ubuntu install off my flash drive failed part way and messed up GRUB in the process, i've been trying to update grub to re-display my windows partition
[04:17] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ right so you need a clean CD to install from or a clean USB image/install
[04:18] <bobweaver> jud,  because Ubuntu can not ship nvidia software or what ever vga closed source it may or may not be
[04:18] <bobweaver> that is illiegal
[04:18] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: Yes but ..  is there no way to get into the perfectly fine windows partition to create that clean USB image?
[04:18] <bobweaver> and so is my spelling ;)
[04:18] <Ben64> In 12.04, how can I make updates appear in the notification area?
[04:18] <jud> bobweaver: so much to learn
[04:19] <bobweaver> Ben64,  pass it over dbus that would be guess but IDK sorry
[04:19] <escott> bobweaver, its not illegal for them to ship the nvidia drivers
[04:19] <bobweaver> escott,  +1 it is against the laws of free software ? or opensurce
[04:19] <trism> Ben64: updates as it updated packages? update manager?
[04:19] <bobweaver> source *
[04:20] <Ben64> trism: yes
[04:20] <jud> bobweaver: maybe an easier hardware solution for now?
[04:20] <trism> Ben64: gsettings set com.ubuntu.update-notifier auto-launch false;
[04:20] <cipherboy> Hey, does anyone have a printer similar to an HP OfficeJet J4600 which has webscan ability?
[04:20] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ from your USB device there is no choice to remove Ubuntu?
[04:21] <Ben64> trism: wow thanks!
[04:21] <Ben64> trism: didn't think it'd be so easy, I was trying all sorts of things
[04:21] <bobweaver> Ben64,  there is a tool called dconf-editor that has a list of all the stuff
[04:21] <Ben64> yeah I was looking through that
[04:22] <bobweaver> there should be search option for that tool
[04:22] <Ben64> indeed
[04:22] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ Listen, the safest thing to do is to reinstall Windows from the back up I know you have and then reinstall Ubuntu.
[04:22] <gmachine_24> :)
[04:23] <bobweaver> trism,  is there a way to list all dbus stuff or is it just go look in /usr/share/dbus-1/services ?
[04:23] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I actually do have a back up that's relatively recent ... but no media to re-install windows 7 from lol
[04:23] <trism> bobweaver: d-feet is pretty nice
[04:23] <bobweaver> Oo
[04:23] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ Can you reinstall from your back up?
[04:23] <bobweaver> !info d-feet > bobweaver
[04:23] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: My backups are just encrypted zip files stored on a remote ftp server
[04:23] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: : (
[04:24] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ Well, this is lesson #1.
[04:24] <jud> bobweaver: i don't know a great deal about this clearly but it would seem then that there is some permanent storage other than on the hard drive?
[04:25] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I have an old 512mb flash stick ... i've seen tiny tiny linux distributions on distrowatch, like damn small linux ... could I set one of those up from inside the live cd?
[04:25] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ If I were you I'd borrow a Windows 7 DVD from a friend and reinstall the software and then reinstall from your back up
[04:25] <bobweaver> gmachine_24,  no no no borrow a Ubuntu cd from a friend and re-install it Oo
[04:25] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ that I do not know.
[04:25] <bobweaver> :)
[04:26] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ bobweaver is correct, that would be a better choice. then if it fails you can try the Windows redo. All of  this is just a waste of time.
[04:26] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ since you don't have a full Ubuntu install
[04:27] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ and cannot access the recovery console
[04:27] <metap0d_> :(
[04:27] <Ben64> jockey-text keeps crashing and popping up an error on my notification area. how can i make it never run again, as I already have my nvidia driver
[04:27] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ Well, you know, they tell you to back things up for a reason.
[04:27] <metap0d_> there must be SOME tool I could download whilst on the live cd to either repair grub or maybe repair the MBR for windows or something
[04:28] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ STOP.  you can try supergrubdisk.org either super grub disk or rescatux
[04:28] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ but for that you need a cd burner, etc.
[04:29] <c_smith> would Ubuntu with the Cairo Dock session it sets up on install still count as Ubuntu?
[04:30] <linuxer> hello
[04:30] <c_smith> I ask this because Steam for Linux I hear is only coming for Ubuntu and not it's derivatives.
[04:30] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ we have given you the commands to restore or repair grub. they are not working. there is some damage to your partitions so that they cannot be read. If you had a Windows 7 disk you could try a repair of Windows from that (after a live boot)
[04:31] <aeon-ltd> c_smith: if it has the core of ubuntu it's ubuntu
[04:32] <aeon-ltd> c_smith: haven't you heard of the variants[xubuntu,lubuntu,etc]?
[04:32] <trism> Ben64: I believe that is started by /etc/xdg/autostart/jockey-gtk.desktop on 12.04, if you copy it to ~/.config/autostart/ and set NoDisplay=false you should be able to enable/disable it in gnome-session-properties
[04:32] <maurojas6996_> hello, i need your help
[04:32] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ this is for xp and vista but I think it must be similar for Windows 7 - but you can research it. :) http://helpdeskgeek.com/how-to/fix-mbr-xp-vista/
[04:32] <c_smith> aeon-ltd, from what I hear those won't even get Steam
[04:32] <aeon-ltd> maurojas6996_: describe it to the chan as best you can
[04:33] <metap0d_> gmachine_24: I'm reading about https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair, as a last ditch effort
[04:33] <c_smith> aeon-ltd, simply because the stuff is licensed to Canonical.
[04:33] <aeon-ltd> c_smith: if it's coming with apt then it will most likely work
[04:33] <c_smith> huh.
[04:33] <c_smith> either way, I kinda like Cairo Dock.
[04:33] <deadmund> Firefox crashes immediately when I start it.   No errors in terminal.  Works fine if I use a different firefox user profile.  What can I do?
[04:33] <aeon-ltd> c_smith: i can assume eventually someone will get the source code and port it to other package managers anyway
[04:33] <Random832> deadmund: remove the offending user profile?
[04:34] <c_smith> aeon-ltd, problem is Steam is closed-source.
[04:34] <escott> deadmund, remove your firefox profile
[04:34] <deadmund> Random832, But that's my user!  And I want it!
[04:34] <deadmund> Ugh
[04:34] <c_smith> aeon-ltd, Valve hold the source code, and afaik they aren't removing it.
[04:34] <Random832> what does it have that you want?
[04:34] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ yes, I looked at the boot-repair tool as well - but you need to burn it to a cd or usb stick
[04:34] <deadmund> good thing I have sync
[04:34] <Random832> just delete/move your .firefox directory
[04:34] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ maybe you can burn it to your other usb stick. it should be plenty small enough.
[04:34] <maurojas6996_> i installed a program, that not work, and i remove the program, the program is not in my PC, but the shortcut is in my main menu
[04:35] <aeon-ltd> c_smith: that's kinda limiting their market, even if ubuntu variants are the most popular
[04:35] <deadmund> Random832, I am aware of how to delete a profile.  firefox -P will work just as well.  Are you kidding?  All my bookmarks and saved passwords are in my profile.  I have sync though.  I was hoping to avoid deleting the profile
[04:35] <maurojas6996_> sorry i not speak a good english and the google translate is a sh**
[04:35] <c_smith> aeon-ltd, yeah, I can't say I don't question that logic, but never look a gift horse in the mouth.
[04:35] <Random832> deadmund: you might be able to transfer some of the files from the bad profile to the new one
[04:35] <bobweaver> maurojas6996_,  where are you from ?
[04:36] <deadmund> Random832, Do you know what firefox sync is?  I have it.  I'm using it.
[04:36] <maurojas6996_> i am from Venezuela
[04:36] <Random832> no i don't ... then why is it a big deal
[04:36] <bobweaver> !spainsh | maurojas6996_
[04:36] <aeon-ltd> !spanish | maurojas6996_
[04:36] <gmachine_24> metap0d_ come to think of it, I think I will do just that. I must go. Good luck to you. Don't feel bad about the back up - when Anonymous trashed the head of the IT security firm that was after them they discovered he used the same password for all his accounts - facebook, twitter, yahoo!, ... everything. A huge no-no. Peace.
[04:36] <bobweaver> !es | maurojas6996_
[04:37] <deadmund> Random832, It's not.  Except that the firefox sync key is on a flash drive on the other side of town.  I was hoping to be able to get firefox working without erasing my profile only for timely convenience.  However, I have sync, so I can delete it safely.  I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to get into my normal profile again.
[04:37] <maurojas6996_> sorry, but nobody in Ubuntu-es
[04:37] <deadmund> Random832, makes sense?
[04:37] <maurojas6996_> but I understand english, that i can not to talk good
[04:37] <chimney> hi I have an problem with ubuntu and a via c3 cpu freezing ...
[04:38] <bobweaver> maurojas6996_,  /usr/share/applicaions/name_of_program.desktop    is it there ?
[04:38] <chimney> my via c3 is freezing while installation when cpu goes under 800Mhz, how do I set the cpu freq to 1Ghz?
[04:39] <bobweaver> maurojas6996_,  /usr/share/applications/name_of_program.desktop    is it there ?  my spelling was bad on last one
[04:39] <escott> chimney, you can find the cpu freq governors in /sys these days
[04:39] <jud> bobweaver: so, if i change the graphics card, will it let me do a fresh install that will work do you think?
[04:39] <chimney> escott: it freezes while installation -.0
[04:39] <chimney> -.-
[04:40] <maurojas6996_> no, the file is not be in this directory
[04:40] <maurojas6996_> but the file is in menu://applications/DesktopSettings
[04:40] <bobweaver> jud,  I can not tell you what it can or cant do with out knowing the computers perpetuals
[04:40] <maurojas6996_> and is impossible to erase
[04:40] <bobweaver> like vga and ram and cpu ect
[04:41] <chimney> escott: its running fine with opensuse12.1 but opensuse is kind of pita
[04:42] <bobweaver> impossible to erase  what does that mean ? like you do not have permissions maurojas6996_   ?
[04:42] <jud> bobweaver: and if i just hit f1 or something while it's booting i can get that info there?
[04:42] <bobweaver> jud,  at login menu press ctrl+alt+f1
[04:43] <maurojas6996_> yes I have permissions, but the error that this show is: : The specified location is not supported
[04:43] <bobweaver> what is this app maurojas6996_ ?
[04:43] <escott> chimney, look under /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/cpufreq
[04:44] <maurojas6996_> driconf
[04:44] <chimney> without the system on the disk?
[04:44] <jud> bobweaver: and then?
[04:44] <bobweaver> maurojas6996_,  this is a applet ?
[04:45] <chimney> escott: it freezes somehow while installing
[04:45] <bobweaver> jud,  are you at that computer now ?
[04:45] <maurojas6996_> when i remove driconf, the shortcut has not removed
[04:45] <escott> chimney, right... you said when the freq was dropped below 800. so set the governor to performance
[04:46] <chimney> escott: is there a boot param?
[04:46] <maurojas6996_> driconf is an applet to control de graphical card
[04:46] <escott> chimney, check http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/cpu-freq/governors.txt
[04:46] <maurojas6996_> but no work in my PC, and I remove, but the shortcut has not removed from my main menu
[04:47] <bobweaver> maurojas6996_,  I am not a applet person sorry I am sure that others will look this over though may try to re-install then purge it ? that is just a guess
[04:47] <escott> chimney, or get yourself to a terminal fast enough to set it to performance before it drops
[04:47] <maurojas6996_> yes I try
[04:48] <maurojas6996_> thanks bobweaver :)
[04:48] <markhammel> Does anyone have exp using ubuntu's virtual box to use windows????
[04:48] <jud> bobweaver: no, but i don't have a laptop, so top get 2 computers going side by side is gonna be a nuisance. I was just trying to anticipate a couple of steps ahead so i can find out as much as possible before asking someone what to do next tomorrow. I'm currently at a different location you see.
[04:48] <markhammel> I'm having issues with my usb drives running windows threw virtualbox
[04:49] <c_smith> markhammel, without decent specs and hardware virtualization, Virtualbox is gonna be painfully slow.
[04:49] <c_smith> markhammel, that's usually because the guest additions aren't installed.
[04:49] <c_smith> markhammel, you'll want to install VIrtualbox through the repo Oracl provides.
[04:49] <markhammel> guest aditions?? what is that where do  i find them to install?
[04:49] <markhammel> so i need a diff ver of virtualbox?
[04:50] <c_smith> markhammel, affirmative.
[04:50] <markhammel> thanks so should i uninstall this one and delete the windows 7
[04:50] <c_smith> markhammel, if you can wait a second, I can get a guide for installing Oracle's version of VBox.
[04:50] <chimney> escott: i just dont understand this _NO_HZ thing in there
[04:50] <c_smith> markhammel, correct,
[04:50] <chimney> ...
[04:50] <markhammel> okay that would be great csmith
[04:50] <bobweaver> ahh jud  yeah I would try to get to tty (ctrl+alt+f1)and debug from there looking at hardware level  and again you can run nux unity test /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p    you might have to go with more light weight or who knows could be bad connection. whta is computer make and model ?
[04:51] <c_smith> markhammel, http://www.itworld.com/software/304613/install-virtualbox-ubuntu-1210
[04:51] <escott> chimney, i havent messed with governors in a while so im not sure what NO_HZ is either
[04:51] <c_smith> markhammel, but make sure to remove the current Virtualbox first.
[04:51] <c_smith> otherwise some very nasty things can occur.
[04:51] <c_smith> markhammel, then you
[04:51] <chimney> escott: I'll try it with gettin a terminal fast :P
[04:52] <markhammel> just an uninstall should be good enough right?
[04:52] <chimney> escott: then in 3 hours ill ask again crying xD
[04:52] <almoxarife> markhammel: thanks so should i uninstall this one and delete the windows 7 <-- why delete the guest OS?
[04:52] <c_smith> markhammel, no, use this: sudo apt-get purge virtualbox
[04:52] <jud> bobweaver: ok, i'll just try what you've suggested so far, get that output if i can. The make is a chinese slap together, I'll try and be more specific tomorrow. thanks!
[04:53] <c_smith> markhammel, purge to make sure there's no configs leftover that shouldn't be.
[04:53] <markhammel> how do i purge?
[04:53] <c_smith> markhammel, then you'll want to install the Guest Additions from https://www.virtualbox.org/ after installing Oracle's VBox.
[04:53] <markhammel> i just did sudo apt-get purge virtualbox
[04:53] <c_smith> markhammel, sudo apt-get purge virtualbox
[04:54] <c_smith> markhammel, that's the purge I was talking about.
[04:54] <markhammel> oh okay i did that.
[04:54] <c_smith> and then you're good to follow the directions I linked
[04:54] <c_smith> then you'll want the latest guest additions from the site I listed.
[04:54] <chimney> bye
[04:57] <markhammel> c_smith i was on sonys chat help.. its a scheme.. they just try to lie and sell u fake products.
[04:57] <markhammel> I told them that irc was helping me more then they were and they were just giving me a run around.. LOL
[04:58] <c_smith> markhammel, I know the feeling.
[04:58] <beachandbytes> major company chat help = guy in india getting paid 2.25 an hour
[05:00] <markhammel> c smith where are the guest additions i dont se them?
[05:00] <markhammel> r they called guest additions?
[05:01] <c_smith> markhammel, let me take a look
[05:01] <c_smith> markhammel, I gave you the wrong file name, it's the VirtualBox Extension Pack you want.
[05:02] <c_smith> shows how late it is here.
[05:02] <c_smith> markhammel, also, a tip for irc, type the first few letters of a person name then pressing tab autocompletes it.
[05:03] <markhammel> ah i thought it might be that. c_smith  great tip
[05:03] <Slidesub> oh
[05:03] <c_smith> markhammel, not a prob
[05:05] <markhammel> great its loading ill see if it works now
[05:05] <c_smith> cool
[05:05] <markhammel> my terminal ended at 2% [1 virtualbox-4.2 915 kB/59.9 MB 2%]
[05:05] <markhammel> when i tried to dl the new one.. i hope its supposed to look like that.
[05:06] <c_smith> it's not.
[05:06] <c_smith> you may want to rerun the command.
[05:06] <markhammel> hmm but i have virtual box installed
[05:06] <markhammel> is it possible the old one never uninstalled correctly
[05:06] <c_smith> markhammel, apt-get purge would have made sure of that.
[05:08] <markhammel> hmm i just noticed i could see my kindle from the usb button at the bottum of virtual drive
[05:08] <markhammel> its installing the drivers  r now for it apparently.
[05:08] <c_smith> ah, that worked?
[05:08] <markhammel> i mean thats not what i neeed it to see i need it to see my iphone... but thats a good sign.
[05:08] <c_smith> cool
[05:09] <c_smith> markhammel, I take it you installed the extensions?
[05:09] <Febul> In apache2, which file contains the LogLevel?
[05:10] <markhammel> Yeah c_smith the extension installed fine.. im jsut still wondering about the 2% thing and how if it only ran 2 % am i running virtual box now effectively
[05:10] <c_smith> hmmmm..... that's not something I seen Ubuntu do.
[05:10] <markhammel> hmm its showing my iphone as an unknown device... and says installation failed.
[05:10] <sleepster> would I get better raid performance doing a software raid or a hardware raid ? my motherboard has one of those fake raid controllers
[05:10] <phunyguy_t430s_> I thought Empathy used to be able to do IRC.... did they do away with that in Ubuntu 12.10? or am I missing a package? *giggity*
[05:10] <c_smith> but it seems to work correctly
[05:11] <markhammel> maybe i should scroll up and redo the steps
[05:11] <trism> phunyguy_t430s_: account-plugin-irc, not installed by default I think
[05:11] <phunyguy_t430s_> sweet, thanks
[05:12] <c_smith> markhammel, might be a good idea
[05:13] <xxiao> install ubuntu 10.04 from a usb stick, the grub.cfg takes my first hard drive as (hd1), so after usb stick is unplugged, the system won't boot
[05:13] <xxiao> i must have the usb-stick plugged to boot the hard-drive installation???
[05:14] <phunyguy_t430s> there we are.
[05:14] <markhammel> c_smith i think its cause i had a second virtualbox running even when i tried to delete it
[05:14] <xxiao> with usb-stick it's called sda, the hard drive is sdb, and grub.cfg stays that way, sucks
[05:14] <c_smith> markhammel, might be.
[05:14] <blackness> xxiao, impossible, ive used the USB liveCD...and its never done this, except when i installed it on the wrong drive.
[05:14] <xxiao> tried grub-install --root-directory did not help
[05:14] <blackness> did you overwrite your USB stick?
[05:14] <xxiao> blackness: i know, i installed ubuntu many times too
[05:15] <markhammel> hmm when i try sudo apt-get purge virtualbox
[05:15] <markhammel> it says virtual box is not installed so not removed
[05:15] <xxiao> i used the create-startup-disk menu to create those usb sticks, as usual
[05:15] <blackness> did you select SDA instead of SDB on accident? and your system drive should be on IDE0/SATA0. why its slaved is beyond me.
[05:15] <blackness> i use usb-creator-gtk
[05:15] <xxiao> this is the first time the usb-stick will treat itself as sda while the hard drive as sdb and after the installation it needs to remain that order
[05:15] <xxiao> i.e. usb-stick plugged in all the time
[05:16] <markhammel> c_smith does this look normal? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341789/
[05:16] <xxiao> and it ignores usb-stick after the installation at boot time, i had to re-create the stick to boot from usb
[05:16] <xxiao> absurd
[05:16] <xxiao> not sure if it's caused by the uefi(disabled) Dell XPS 8500 machine
[05:16] <escott> xxiao, manually edit the grub.cfg to reference the correct disk
[05:16] <blackness> i'd start over. and take your time and make sure that your using the right drive.
[05:16] <xxiao> escott: tried that, grub will give strange errors
[05:17] <blackness> burn ubuntu to CD.
[05:17] <escott> xxiao, it shouldn't... what errors are you getting
[05:17] <xxiao> spent 7 hours on that
[05:17] <xxiao> grub_rescue
[05:17] <phunyguy_t430s> wait, UEFI errors?  Booting from USB stick?
[05:17] <blackness> and install VIA that method and it should only find your installed harddrive.
[05:17] <phunyguy_t430s> If so, tell the USB stick to boot Legacy, not UEFI.
[05:17] <phunyguy_t430s> hope that helps.
[05:17] <xxiao> the bios supports UEFI, this is some new machine from Dell, however i disabled uefi in bios
[05:18] <blackness> why did you disable it?
[05:18] <xxiao> i installed ubuntu many times, never saw this
[05:18] <phunyguy_t430s> xxiao, are you booting from USB stick?
[05:18] <xxiao> blackness: it's disabled by default
[05:18] <xxiao> phunyguy_t430s: yes
[05:18] <blackness> yes he is phunyguy_t430s
[05:18] <phunyguy_t430s> are you getting a boot menu to try Ubuntu or install it? or...?
[05:18] <xxiao> it boots fine, installed ok, however reboot mandates usb-plugged-in
[05:18] <phunyguy_t430s> that is my point xxiao
[05:19] <JONATHANDAWDY> hey im in trubble
[05:19] <phunyguy_t430s> i just went through this.
[05:19] <xxiao> modify grub.cfg, grub-install, update-grub, none helped
[05:19] <blackness> xxiao, re-enable it, your actual harddrive should be SDA..ive never seen a drive show up as SDB. except when i slaved drives with IDE cords.
[05:19] <JONATHANDAWDY> can i ask a really important question here quick and should be easy
[05:19] <phunyguy_t430s> xxiao, get to a boot menu where you can select boot device, then pick the USB stick as a whole, not UEFI mode
[05:19] <xxiao> phunyguy_t430s: the installation is normal, i got the try and install option, which i opted the latter
[05:19] <phunyguy_t430s> xxiao as a boot option or in the gui?
[05:20] <xxiao> phunyguy_t430s: yes
[05:20] <blackness> xxiao, reboot and hit F9 to get a boot menu.
[05:20] <escott> xxiao, where is the bootloader. can you confirm it is on the hard disk mbr
[05:20] <xxiao> blackness: tried that, hit F12 that is
[05:20] <markhammel> Okay sweet i have a good feeling about it this time around
[05:20] <phunyguy_t430s> ok well, get a boot menu, prolly f9 or f12
[05:20] <blackness> oh, mine is F9.
[05:20] <xxiao> escott: it's , i checked the advanced option during installation, it's on /dev/sda
[05:20] <phunyguy_t430s> then boot legacy mode or pick the USB device as a top level option
[05:20] <blackness> so many people helping you, im gonna let them take this :)
[05:20] <phunyguy_t430s> i JUST went through this
[05:20] <xxiao> hold on, /dev/sda should be usb-stick in this case...so it installs to usb-stick?
[05:21] <xxiao> however i don't have a sdb option
[05:21] <escott> xxiao, well sda is the usb... so if the bootloader is on the usb you certainly wont be able to boot without the usb
[05:21] <xxiao> shot
[05:21] <escott> xxiao, i would do a manual install of grub to sdb, and modify the grub.cfg to reference sda. remove the usb stick reboot and you should be good
[05:21] <JONATHANDAWDY> hey will anyone help me
[05:21] <xxiao> the partition stage at usb-boot-installation is shown the hard-drive as sda
[05:21] <JONATHANDAWDY> helloooo
[05:21] <xxiao> however after the installation it's sdb
[05:22] <JONATHANDAWDY> HELLOOO
[05:22] <JONATHANDAWDY> I NEED HELP ANYONE HEAR ME

[05:23] <phunyguy_t430s> thats what I meant
[05:23] <Random832> ...who uses those?
[05:23] <JONATHANDAWDY> lol now let me type
[05:25] <JONATHANDAWDY> i am in boot repair. im in this because i was told to use the checkdisk command in termanal and when i did FOLLOW the walktrough i rebooted and grub-rescue poped up. so i open my liveboot of boot-repair and found that it wont fix grub because it doesnt think it exsists. so in a nutshell i think that covers it
[05:26] <JONATHANDAWDY> lol lots of words
[05:26] <escott> JONATHANDAWDY, do you mean "chkdsk" which is a windows command?
[05:26] <JONATHANDAWDY> one thing is there a grub-rescue command to reconfigue the grub table
[05:27] <JONATHANDAWDY> yes
[05:27] <JONATHANDAWDY> no
[05:28] <JONATHANDAWDY> i did a sudo comman that downloaded and ran a chdisk type thing and i receved this command from an ubuntu forems moderator
[05:28] <JONATHANDAWDY> command*
[05:29] <JONATHANDAWDY> it modifed my dev/sda2 partition is what it said but grub is on dev/sda1 so idk y it effected it
[05:29] <escott> JONATHANDAWDY, before we can do much to help we would really need to know what exactly you did and what guide you were following
[05:29] <JONATHANDAWDY> um can  i open the ubuntu forems in boot repair
[05:30] <JONATHANDAWDY> i have something on here called iceweasel

[05:40] <dinger> hi
[05:41] <JONATHANDAWDY> i am serching my thread in the ubuntu forums i am required to answer a question i dont understand
[05:41] <JONATHANDAWDY> Which of these makes a word in the English language when rotated through 180 degrees? SIH ISH HIS SHI IHS
[05:42] <paulsomebody> JONATHANDAWDY: Stay on topic, please.
[05:42] <MikeS11> I used 'dd' to create an image of a full disk (/dev/sda). In hindsight, I probably should have coppied each partition seperately. My question, is there a way to somehow mount this image (containing multiple partitions) so that I may still see the data?
[05:42] <JONATHANDAWDY> I AM ON TOPIC I AM REQIRED TO ANSWER THE QUESTION TO CONTINUE SO PLEASE READ
[05:43] <paulsomebody> Hi. I am having an issue with my sound card — my external mic that is plugged into the front panel is not recognized.
[05:43] <paulsomebody> Any ideas?
[05:43] <escott> MikeS11, that is a good question
[05:43] <paulsomebody> JONATHANDAWDY: And you probably should not use Capslock either.
[05:44] <escott> MikeS11, try http://blog.lifebloodnetworks.com/?p=934
[05:44] <MikeS11> escott: Thanks, I'll check that out.
[05:44] <JONATHANDAWDY> ubuntu frorums says you have to answer a random question to do a wide search of the data base. now the question they gave me is -----Which of these makes a word in the English language when rotated through 180 degrees? SIH ISH HIS SHI IHS----- now please paulsomebody   answer the question so i can find the answer to escott's question
[05:45] <JONATHANDAWDY> understand now?
[05:45] <ThoughtWeaver> morning all!
[05:45] <hallofick> morning!
[05:45] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: Good evening!
 do you undrstand
[05:46] <ThoughtWeaver> depends where we all are :D
[05:46] <escott> JONATHANDAWDY, we aren't here to answer captcha's for you. request a different one
[05:46] <paulsomebody> JONATHANDAWDY: I do. However, I find you extremely annoying.
[05:47] <crimsonmane> JONATHANDAWDY: SIH spells "HIS" when rotated 180 degrees
[05:47] <ThoughtWeaver> anyhoo... I need a bit of help with bind9 + dlz that is not giving me authoritative answers
[05:47] <JONATHANDAWDY> it isnt a captup but thanx for the help crimsonmane you actually care. now that thats solved i can continue
[05:48] <crimsonmane> JONATHANDAWDY: i don't actually care. i just wanna shut you up.
[05:48] <crimsonmane> you must be an entirely new breed of stupid to not have been able to figure that out
[05:48] <Random832> JONATHANDAWDY: type /nick jonathandawdy
[05:48] <Random832> i think your capital nickname might be annoying to some people
[05:49] <jonathandawdy> sorry ppl cared it was an accadent
[05:49] <Random832> so what was your issue?
[05:50] <ThoughtWeaver> i built bind 9.8.1 with dlz and all seems ok: it answers requests, but not authoritatively...
[05:50] <jonathandawdy> geez im not to happy to more but leave me alone im getting escott's answer, and random832 private massage me and il reexplain to you ok
[05:50] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: I don't have any experience with DLZ, but you have perked my curiosity... I'm looking into this.
[05:51] <ThoughtWeaver> and i really do not want to go back to zone files and restarting and drama...
[05:51] <paulsomebody> In case you were addressing me, my issue is front panel mic that is not detected by 12.10.
[05:51] <ThoughtWeaver> Mike511 you are awesome! thanks!
[05:51] <Random832> nevermind i don't have much time before i have to go to bed anyway, sorry
[05:52] <jonathandawdy> escott you still there
[05:52] <escott> jonathandawdy, next time im going to say no
[05:53] <jonathandawdy> i have your link thanxs for helping
[05:53] <jonathandawdy> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2080771
[05:53] <jonathandawdy> alfred is the moderator on page two is his las comment
[05:54] <ThoughtWeaver> paulsombody: not punting this as an answer, but I had something similar a few years ago and it was becasue the board had some automagic voodoo built in to 'detect' if you wanted to use the port for a mic or an extra set of speakers...
[05:54] <paulsomebody> ThoughtWeaver: I'll think about it, thanks.
[05:55] <escott> jonathandawdy, sounds like your NTFS partition was corrupted. you should boot windows and run chkdsk on that partition
[05:55] <jonathandawdy> i cant boot
[05:55] <jonathandawdy> i said i boot with grub-rescue
[05:55] <ThoughtWeaver> you are welcome
[05:55] <escott> jonathandawdy, then get a windows rescue CD
[05:56] <jonathandawdy> my windows doesnt work at all its broken. latley ubuntu has been my only boot. windows btw doesnt repair and is a diffrent matter
[05:56] <escott> jonathandawdy, you also need to be more specific in your description of problems... its really unclear. what partition is not working? you never specified?
[05:57] <paulsomebody> ThoughtWeaver: It is precisely my issue — there is a faulty audio auto-detect feature on the motherboard.
[05:57] <paulsomebody> ThoughtWeaver: Thank you for giving me a good idea.
[05:57] <ThoughtWeaver> You are most welcome! glad i could help!
[05:59] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: Hrm. Not too much info on this... I have moved to books now. I expect I'm going suddenly run into the answer and go, "d'oh".
[05:59] <escott> paulsomebody, ive also seen that as a misconfiguration of the intel HDA pin configuration
[05:59] <ThoughtWeaver> I really appreciate the help Mike511
[06:00] <paulsomebody> escott: Will keep that possibility in mind, thanks.
[06:01] <mrfgizug> what would you recommend for a partition table for ubuntu 12.04 desktop, 500 G HD, 4GRam? I would like the paritions to help me keep my data safe/separate when i upgrade my OS
[06:01] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: No problem. I saw your question and went, "What is that?". I looked it up and I then thought, "This could be useful..." :)
[06:02] <escott> mrfgizug, 10-20gb for /
[06:03] <mrfgizug> escott 4G for swap, anything for boot?
[06:04] <escott> mrfgizug, if you want a /boot or have a particular hardware need for one
[06:04] <mrfgizug> is / where everything goes, including boot?
[06:04] <gear4> it seems that a fresh Ubuntu 12.10 install from ISO/Disk fixed my problem
[06:04] <gear4> thanks anyhow
[06:04] <gear4> cheerio
[06:04] <escott> mrfgizug, yes
[06:04] <ThoughtWeaver> cool! i'll loiter for a bit whils i poke at it in the teminal
[06:06] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: What does your SOA look like (you can obfuscate the domain name if you like)?
[06:06] <mrfgizug> escott if i say... install inkscape, where does that go?
[06:06] <escott> mrfgizug, various places under /
[06:08] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: Also (and maybe more importantly), what are your NS records for the domain?
[06:09] <ThoughtWeaver> Mike511: Sorry was banking :) gimme a sec to get it
[06:09] <mrfgizug> escott im planning on doing a bunch of media (video editing, sound editing, lots of pix, at the least these will be installed, libre office, inkscape, gimp, audacity) is 20g enough for the / or would you recommend higher? (of course any output files will be in home somewhere, so i might not need much / compared to /home.) do i have the right idea or is it overkill?
[06:10] <MikeS11> ThoughtWeaver: Or if you want (put this on paste.ubuntu.com), you could throw out something like: "select * from dns_records where zone like '%domain.com%';"
[06:11] <mrfgizug> escott oh and blender

[06:14] <jonathandawdy> your rignt
[06:14] <escott> mrfgizug, i dont know off hand how much those will take up. if you are worried you could use lvm
[06:14] <aeon-ltd> apps: that varies per bluetooth module (the wiki has more). but i think ubuntu has bluez installed stock
[06:16] <the_dark_knight> Hi, I have 3 processes and their pids. I want to know what did each process do last time? One of these processes has run python script.py, I want to find out which one. please help
[06:17] <paulsomebody> Hooray.
[06:18] <mrfgizug> escott thanks for your suggestions. ive settled on a config for my partitions.
[06:18] <robinp> does Ubuntu 12.10 include the EFI stub loader support enabled in its kernel ?
[06:18] <escott> the_dark_knight, what does that question mean?
[06:19] <paulsomebody> In case anyone else is experiencing problems with audio or mic jacks not detected, that is a known bug and there might be a workaround available for your system. See here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/946232 at comment #32.

[06:20] <ThoughtWeaver> glad i could help

[06:51] <rodayo_> Sorry if this is un related. But is there a way to make grub boot from a usb drive when it's at the "rescue" prompt? When I turn on my machine it goes straight to the rescue prompt and i can't access the bios menu to change the boot order...
[06:54] <somsip> rodayo_: BIOS boot order menu should come up first
[06:54] <rodayo_> somsip, i'd think so too...with a ubuntu live usb I made it will boot straight into that but with this windows 8 usb i made that's not the case
[06:55] <jonathandawdy> press f12 or f10
[06:55] <jonathandawdy> rodayo
[06:55] <somsip> rodayo_: No idea about windows 8. AIUI BIOS always boots first, but the new things with Win8, dunno
[06:55] <jonathandawdy> at boot press f12 or f10 it normally says
[06:56] <jonathandawdy> its depends on the computer manufacure
[06:56] <rodayo_> jonathandawdy, right, in mine the first screen says to press Esc for some "setup" stuff(can't quite recall) but that doesn't do anything
[06:56] <rodayo_> is it possible to do it from grub?
[06:57] <jonathandawdy> no
[06:57] <jonathandawdy> grub is after
[06:57] <jonathandawdy> but at the screen where it says pres esc for setup it may say press f10 or f12 for boot-screen
[06:58] <jonathandawdy> if it doesnt then you may have to reboot 12 times but each time press the f1-12 buton (a difrent one each time) and just keep pressing it ok
[06:58] <rodayo_> one sec, lemme give it a try
[06:58] <jonathandawdy> then when a windows popps up choose your use drive
[07:01] <rodayo_> it worked!
[07:01] <rodayo_> jonathandawdy, thanks alot!
[07:01] <jakepetroules> Hi. I'm trying to install libgl1-mesa-* packages on precise but am getting 404 errors. apt-get is saying it failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/m/mesa/libgl1-mesa-glx_8.0.4-0ubuntu0.1_i386.deb … looking on the website here http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/i386/libgl1-mesa-glx/download it seems that the URL is slightly different… how can i get these packages installed correctly?
[07:02] <zeeegis> Hello
[07:02] <aristidesfl> hi, how can I switch from a dhcp to a static configuration permanently on 12.04?
[07:02] <aristidesfl> using the cli
[07:03] <aristidesfl> my /etc/network/interfaces only has 2 lines:
[07:03] <aristidesfl> auto lo
[07:03] <aristidesfl> iface lo inet loopback
[07:03] <somsip> aristidesfl: have a look in /etc/network. The interfaces file is what you are using now. The interfaces.static file is what a static IP entry would look like. That's your starting point. Backup files before changign anything
[07:05] <aristidesfl> somsip but how com I don't have any line regarding eth0 on /etc/network/interfaces ?
[07:05] <somsip> aristidesfl: no idea. sorry
[07:05] <aristidesfl> also don't have a interfaces.static
[07:06] <somsip> aristidesfl: it looks like this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/143819/how-do-i-configure-my-static-dns-in-interfaces
[07:07] <aristidesfl> what I don't understand is why there is why there is an entry for lo but not eth0
[07:07] <BeiFong> what sets the home directory icons?

[07:11] <Rook> Hey, is it acceptable to ask a general *buntu package management question here?  I'm on Lubuntu, rather than Ubuntu, though.
[07:12] <Jordan_U> Rook: Yes, they all use exactly the same repositories and thus are all supported here (though there may be more people in #lubuntu who can answer certain questions).
[07:13] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U & ubottu thanks for the info. I'm doing that now
[07:13] <Rook> I'll ask and if you can help, then good, if not, we tried.
[07:15] <Rook> I added the getdeb games repository and I'm wondering if there's a way I can fix a broken dependency.  Specifically I'm trying to install vegastrike on 12.04.
[07:15] <IanWizard-Cloud> Is there any command line way to run actions like Scale (the windows preview / Super + W), and opening the Dash?  Other than simulating the keys
[07:17] <Erin> anyone here use PHP-FPM ? I installed it but its not listening on port 9000 like it says it should, verified using: sudo netstat -lnp | grep :9000
[07:18] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: You're welcome. Be sure to post the pastebin link with the RESULTS.txt.
[07:18] <frjaalrex> Jordon_U: just Doing
[07:19] <peacock> !ot
[07:20] <MikeS11> Erin: I don't know anything about it, but it sounds like a particular daemon isn't running. Try the following: service --status-all
[07:20] <sbarcteam> hi. I have external IDE disk (USB attached with an IDE->USB controller). when it mounts, by default it mounts with specific mount options. How do I tune this up to add 'acl' to that specific device ? what udev rule ?
[07:20] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U Here's the link! http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341932/
[07:20] <IanWizard-Cloud> Unrelated to the above, is there an ubuntu dev channel?
[07:21] <Erin> MikeS11,  [ + ]  php5-fpm
[07:21] <Erin> MikeS11, php5-fpm also says its running through its own daemon. but its clearly not listening on port 9000 :-\
[07:22] <sbarcteam> I don't want to add it to /etc/fstab. It is a removable device. I think.
[07:22] <IanWizard-Cloud> sbarcteam: you can add it by uuid (to fstab)
[07:23] <MikeS11> sbarcteam: Might be a little complex but..... http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html
[07:23] <sbarcteam> IanWizard-Cloud: you mean by partition's uuid ?
[07:24] <IanWizard-Cloud> sbarcteam: yes.
[07:24] <MikeS11> Erin: Within your php5-fpm config file you can specify the "listen_address" which includes the port. Check you config and see what it is set for.
[07:29] <IanWizard-Cloud> Unity dev rather.
[07:29] <Erin> MikeS11, in this file ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341940/ /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini ?
[07:30] <amng> why df output ,avail+used != size ; difference between them is also on Gigabytes.
[07:31] <MikeS11> Erin: No, there should be a php-fpm.conf file. See the php-fpm wiki: http://php-fpm.org/wiki/Configuration_File
[07:31] <somethinginteres> how can I check if I have the newest NVIDIA beta drivers installed? What version number should the new ones be?
[07:32] <Erin> MikeS11, i can't seem to file, any clue to where it is located? localhost:9000 is supposed to be the "default" setup ....
[07:32] <MikeS11> somethinginteres: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
[07:33] <Erin> MikeS11, seem to find that file that is .
[07:33] <MikeS11> somethinginteres: You can check for what version you are running with the following: dpkg -l | grep nvidia
[07:34] <Erin> MikeS11, ahh I found it, had a typo ;-p
[07:34] <MikeS11> Erin: Right on! Out of curiousity, where was it? Also, what port does it say you are supposed to be using?
[07:35] <somethinginteres> Mike511: thanks looks like I am not running the one released a few days ago. says  304.48 is my version.
[07:35] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U ubottu http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341932/
[07:36] <Synt> is there an easy way to check if my ubuntu has blocked an ip?
[07:36] <Erin> MikeS11, that file had no line "listen_address"
[07:37] <blackness> Synt, are you running a firewall?
[07:37] <Synt> not that i know of
[07:37] <Erin> MikeS11, i added listen_address = <IP_ADDRESS>:9000 to the file, reloaded the daemon but still its not listening..
[07:38] <Synt> atleast i havent installed one by choice on teh ubuntu
[07:38] <Synt> it's the 10.4 LTS version of ubuntu
[07:39] <jonathandawdy> isnt <IP_ADDRESS>:9000  LOOP PORT
[07:39] <Synt> somehow i can't ping it or login to the ftp from a company ip but from my home computer i can access it fine
[07:39] <Erin> MikeS11, it appears according to the log file I have the wrong syntax for listen_address
[07:39] <Synt> and from the company ip i can access other ftp servers fine
[07:39] <jonathandawdy> one sec synt let me check something
[07:40] <ahmed_> hi
[07:41] <Erin> MikeS11, hrm im not sure what format to use? [08-Nov-2012 02:36:12] ERROR: [/etc/php5/fpm/php-fpm.conf:26] unknown entry 'listen_address'
[07:42] <MikeS11> Erin: I believe something like this -> listen_address = <IP_ADDRESS>:9000
[07:42] <Erin> MikeS11, tried that, no dice.
[07:43] <greenit> hi, i have netbook with an intel atom and an intel 945gse graphics card, and i want to play a video, but it is in slow-motion... can i fix this anyhow?
[07:44] <Synt> Erin on that file it should only be "listen = <IP_ADDRESS>:9000"
[07:44] <jalexandru_> hi, where should the hg clone code go when using mercurial? in cgi-bin directory? or in the repos directory? thank you
[07:45] <Erin> Synt, just tried that too a minute ago still doesn't like it, is it under [global] section ?
[07:46] <MikeS11> Erin: Looking at examples, it looks like Synt may be correct. But that is weird that their homepage wiki says listen_address. :/
[07:46] <Synt> might need to comment out "listen = /run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock"
[07:46] <Erin> well its not spitting out errors now
[07:47] <Erin> but its still not listening
[07:48] <Erin> Synt, I dont have that line
[07:48] <Synt> hmm
[07:48] <Synt> not sure then.
[07:49] <Synt> jonathandawdy still here?
[07:49] <MikeS11> http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.fpm.configuration.php It looks like you need to put the listen entry under a "pool" directive (ie. not global).
[07:49] <Erin> MikeS11, ahh
[07:50] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: Do you have UEFI firmware?
[07:50] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U No. BIOS
[07:52] <MikeS11> Erin: *fingers crossed*
[07:52] <Erin> MikeS11, so like this ? [pool]
[07:52] <Erin> listen = 127:0.0.1:9000
[07:52] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: Using fdisk, mark the EFI protective partition as "active". (If this works then you have a buggy BIOS).
[07:52] <Trudko> Hi guys, I am thiking about installing some kind of linux on virtual machine under my windows. The reason is I want to learn basics of linux, because I am java develeoper and eventhough I develop on windows it might happen in future that I will have to deploy on linux machine
[07:53] <Trudko> Can you give some tip which distro of linux is used for such purposes does it matter on which distro I am learning?
[07:53] <MikeS11> Erin: listen = <IP_ADDRESS>:9000
[07:53] <Trudko> ofc I would probably get some without UI
[07:53] <MikeS11> Erin: (proably a typo)
[07:53] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: Note that fdisk will complain since it's GPT, Since you're not actually changing partitions though it's safe.
[07:53] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U How do i know which one is EFI protective partition?
[07:53] <Synt> Erin check this example https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug_id=62886&patch=php-fpm.conf&revision=latest
[07:55] <Erin> [08-Nov-2012 02:54:48] ALERT: [pool pool] user has not been defined

[07:55] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: It's the only one there :)
[07:55] <MikeS11> Erin: Check out the example Synt gave - it looks to have a good Pool definition sample.
[07:56] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U Could you please give me direct command!
[07:57] <Erin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341968/
[07:57] <Erin>  is what i've got now
[07:58] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: Run "sudo fdisk /dev/sda" and pastebin the output.
[07:58] <Synt> if you check the example i posted a pool needs a user and group and other stuff =)
[07:58] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U Doing that
[07:58] <Erin> Synt, k
[08:00] <g00053> hello!
[08:00] <MikeS11> Erin: Good luck!
[08:01] <gajewski> hi, could anyone help? i've just updated ubuntu 12.10 through some popup window - and after reboot i've lost my wifi. is there some package like fedora's kmod-wl i should reinstall? or problem is somewhere else?
[08:01] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341974/
[08:02] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: 'a' then Enter, then '1' and Enter. Then pastebin again.

[08:04] <qouzi> Hey guys, i've been sitting on windows whole my life, yesterday i "migrated" to ubuntu:)! how do i install utorrent?.. need learn ubuntu feels like im in space ^
[08:05] <BeiFong> ubuntu doesn't have utorrent becuse it's evil
[08:05] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341983/
[08:06] <qouzi> what do you mean?
[08:06] <BeiFong> I mean µtorrent is evil.
[08:06] <alpi> why BeiFong
[08:07] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: 'p' then pastebin.
[08:07] <Synt> qouzi there is no linux port for utorrent to my knowledge.
[08:07] <BeiFong> why is it's mu and not just u for µ. can I change the compose sequences?
[08:07] <alpi> what is neopomuk backup?
[08:08] <qouzi> so what pogram do you guys use to handle .torrent files?
[08:08] <Kartagis> qouzi: use transmission
[08:08] <Synt> http://www.transmissionbt.com/
[08:09] <qouzi> thanks guys!
[08:09] <mafiaboy> quozi: or you can use qbittorent ....best  torrent client i have seen
[08:09] <qouzi> hmm
[08:09] <qouzi> ill try transmission and see how it goes but thanks!
[08:09] <rd4> #vim
[08:09] <BeiFong> qtorrent tries to copy µtorrent so you would be right at home.
[08:09] <mafiaboy> sudo apt-get install qbittorrent
[08:09] <Flynsarmy> how do i gzip a file without overwriting the original? gzip myfile.txt changes it to myfile.txt.gz
[08:10] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U http://paste.ubuntu.com/1341989/
[08:10] <Jordan_U> frjaalrex: 'w' and you're done.
[08:11] <BeiFong> Flynsarmy, I think it's tar -czf gnutar.tar file file file.

[08:12] <Erin> YAY

[08:14] <Synt> Erin seems to be working yes
[08:15] <iceroot> dathui: why not using /etc/cron.d/ directly and put there single files for each job?
[08:15] <Erin> Synt, and YAY now my nginx/php works thx for the help buddy
[08:15] <Erin> Synt, fyi I also needed the allowed_clients portion I believe.

[08:16] <iceroot> maum: also see #bash
[08:16] <maum> the command was ./a&;./b&
[08:17] <yud1z> afternoon people
[08:17] <BeiFong> it's so small. what does it do?
[08:17] <iceroot> maum: ./a & ./b &

[08:19] <cornihilio> I tried searching the ubuntu packages but nothing seemed like it was obviously that lib, and apt-get install pcre didn't do anything
[08:19] <iceroot> qouzi: use screen
[08:19] <iceroot> !screen | qouzi
[08:20] <iceroot> qouzi: screen will be holding your porgram so it will not die when you close the terminal

[08:22] <st0ne> he
[08:22] <dathui> iceroot: aha, so if i add the lines in a file there it should be the same thing as adding them to the file i get when running crontab -e?
[08:22] <iceroot> dathui: no, when using /etc/cron.d/ you have also to specify a user
[08:22] <iceroot> dathui: * * * * * username /bin/command
[08:23] <iceroot> dathui: also you have to put PATH in the file if you dont want to write /bin/ping instead of ping  for example
[08:23] <emissar> hi all
[08:23] <iceroot> dathui: you can copy the PATH line which is shown when using crontab -e
[08:23] <dathui> iceroot: aha, thanks
[08:24] <iceroot> dathui: http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/shell-scripting/threads/166819/how-do-i-edit-crontab-using-a-script#
[08:25] <iceroot> dathui: maybe that is usefull too but i prefer /etc/cron.d/ instead
[08:26] <dathui> iceroot: thanks, i'll look into both. so far it seems like cron.d is a cleaner solution...
[08:27] <Synt> is there any file containing a list of blocked ip:s for ubuntu?
[08:27] <Erin> k so I installed ngix/php/mysql got them all to play nice. now I just need to learn how to code PHP!
[08:28] <iceroot> Synt: /etc/hosts.deny
[08:28] <iceroot> Erin: #php :)
[08:29] <Synt> damn, it's empty
[08:29] <iceroot> Synt: then have a look at iptables/ufw
[08:29] <iceroot> !ufw | Synt
[08:29] <Synt> then i'm all out of ideas why i can't access the server from the company ip
[08:30] <Synt> yea can't find it blocked in iptables and ufw either
[08:31] <iceroot> Synt: by default nothing is blocked in ubuntu, so if you did not set up iptables rules i guess the network is missconfigured
[08:31] <iceroot> Synt: are they in the same network? if not, if a route is available?
[08:31] <cihhan> Hi all! Can I learn the amount of disk operations (in MB/GB) of the instances from xentop? It gives information about the requests and the sectors, but I couldn't find how I can learn the total amount of data.
[08:31] <frjaalrex> Jordan_U that worked! :) Thanks a lot. May i know what was the prob ?
[08:31] <Synt> it's a public ip for the ubuntu
[08:31] <Synt> run off esxi
[08:31] <Synt> i can access it from my home computer
[08:32] <Synt> i can't access it from my company's ip tho
[08:32] <iceroot> Synt: maybe your company has a firewall?
[08:32] <Synt> i can access other ftps just fine and ping other computers fine
[08:32] <Synt> yes we have a cisco asa 5505
[08:33] <iceroot> Synt: try "nmap -p port hostname" to reach the machine, if it will say "filtered" its a firewall
[08:33] <Synt> but it's not blocking ftp or icmp
[08:33] <Synt> from the ubuntu?
[08:33] <iceroot> Synt: from the machine you are trying to reach the server
[08:34] <Synt> the machine trying to reach the server is not linux tho
[08:34] <iceroot> Synt: also remember ftps is using a different port then ftp
[08:34] <Seymour> Hi, ich suche ein Programm, mit dem ich diese Notizzettel in PDFs einfügen kann
