[00:08] <GH0> Oh
[00:13] <Nanaharu> Okay so I installed ubuntu to my hardrive from a different computer and now I can get the proper screen in order to get into the grub... I tried just running it on my computer but it went only to the purple screen than stopped... Any help?
[00:18] <gnuskool> empty room?
[00:20] <compdoc> yup
[00:20] <compdoc> just me and you
[00:20] <Gaunt2005> and me
[00:21] <compdoc> oh, 3 ppl then
[00:21] <dr_willis> moo?
[00:22] <compdoc> 3 ppl, one cow
[00:22] <julian-delphiki> Nanaharu: I don;t recommend trying that
[00:22] <nevada-smith> sqwak
[00:22] <dr_willis> Please state your question in the form of a Haiku...
[00:23] <Nanaharu> julian-delphiki : why not?
[00:24] <julian-delphiki> Nanaharu: you should install it on the drive in the computer you want to use it on.
[00:24] <jbollden> Hi, if I don't have any Xorg.conf, how do I diable modules that fails according to the log-file?
[00:25] <mikef> how do packages for ubuntu get created?  i tried my hand at compiling a library (ocsync) but on copying it to a similar ubuntu system (same release) it does not work as expected, though tomy knowledge all the other stuff is the same.
[00:25] <Nanaharu> But I can't get it to install. And no one seems to be able to fix my problem...
[00:25] <dr_willis> !blacklist | jbollden
[00:25] <Nanaharu> julian-delphiki : But I can't get it to install. And no one seems to be able to fix my problem...
[00:26] <jbollden> dr_willis: even for xorg modules? o_O
[00:26] <julian-delphiki> What is the problem, Nanaharu
[00:26] <dr_willis> jbollden: ive seen people blacklist the nvidia and noveau drivers.. so aparently yes
[00:27] <Nanaharu> julian-delphiki : I've been trying to install Ubuntu 12.10 on a bare drive/ brand new operating system. It doesn't have any operating system. All my parts should be compatible.
[00:27] <Nanaharu> julian-delphiki : these are my specs: Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 Processor: Intel i7 Ivy Brige Graphics Card: NVIDIA EVGA GTX 680 FTW RAM: Vengeance 8Gb HDD: Seagate 1Tb
[00:28] <Nanaharu> julian-delphiki : My motherboard is UEFI
[00:29] <Gyhy> Hi
[00:29] <compdoc> Nanaharu, try 12.04
[00:30] <dr_willis> try 13.04  - if it fails file a bug report.
[00:30] <Gyhy> Is it legal to include Java Runtime Environment in my custom Distro?
[00:30] <dr_willis> Gyhy:  the Icedtea java - would be legal.
[00:30] <litropy> BEst Bitcoin mining software?
[00:31] <Nanaharu> compdoc : I've tried 12.10 64 bit and 32bit as well as 12.04 64bit and 32bit and also a secure_linux_built
[00:31] <Gyhy> What is Icedtea Java??
[00:31] <dr_willis> Gyhy:  the opensourced java thats in the normal ubuntu repos
[00:31] <Gyhy> Is it compatible with all java applications?
[00:31] <remaster_> hello i have a samsumg galaxy tab 10'1 and i want to use allshare in ubuntu
[00:31] <k1l_> Gyhy: no
[00:32] <dr_willis> there is no java that is compatible with ALL java apps..
[00:32] <Nanaharu> compdoc : I've tried 12.10 64 bit and 32bit as well as 12.04 64bit and 32bit and also a secure_linux_build
[00:32] <Gyhy> I mean all Java apps meant to work on Linux
[00:32] <Gyhy> Desktop Linux
[00:32] <dr_willis> remaster_:  as far as i know allshare  - is just another dlna server/client stuff.
[00:32] <compdoc> Nanaharu, it sees the hdd and begins the install?
[00:32] <compdoc> it formats, etc?
[00:33] <remaster_> yes but i try some media servers like minidlna and reygel and nothing worked :s
[00:33] <compdoc> Nanaharu, let me see if I can d/l the manual
[00:33] <dr_willis> remaster_:  ive had my tv and tablets with allshare work with minidlna and ushare
[00:33] <Nanaharu> compdoc : I can just get to the purple screen with the f1-f6 buttons and the "try ubuntu without installing" page. After I try to install or tryi without install, I only get a black screen with white text
[00:34] <dr_willis> remaster_:  biggest issue i find is the tablet players often cant handle the differnt file formats
[00:34] <remaster_> but in my allshare my pc doean't appear
[00:34] <compdoc> Nanaharu, hmm, do you have gparted?
[00:34] <remaster_> only appear my brothers windows laptop
[00:34] <Nanaharu> compdoc : what's gparted?
[00:35] <dr_willis> remaster_:  check out 'djmount' in the repos.. it can dynamiacly show all found dlna servers on the network
[00:35] <dr_willis> !info djmount
[00:35] <compdoc> Nanaharu, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php
[00:35] <dr_willis> Hmm bot is sleeping.
[00:35] <Nanaharu> compdoc : and if I have/get this gparted what would I do with it?
[00:36] <remaster_> thanks i will try
[00:36] <dr_willis> bbl
[00:36] <compdoc> Nanaharu, examine the hdd partition table
[00:37] <Nanaharu> compdoc : sorry if it's a noob question, but why would that be helpful? what am I looking for?
[00:37] <compdoc> is it a brand new hdd?
[00:38] <Nanaharu> compdoc : yes it's brand new~
[00:38] <Chickadee> Hello, can anyone help me?
[00:38] <compdoc> then it likely has no partition table
[00:38] <compdoc> that can screw thigns up
[00:38] <Chickadee> Hello?
[00:38] <compdoc> things, too
[00:38] <MestreLeo> I need help: im trying to install 12.04 in a friends (very old) laptop, using usb.Xubuntu live works, but Ubuntu halts when entering graphical mode.any directions?
[00:39] <k1l_> !ask | Chickadee
[00:39] <Nanaharu> OKay~ and so once I use the partition manager, what do I want to do? or do I just want to see the table?
[00:39] <anew> hey guys, if i have a webserver on my site, and people can post their profiles with their emails on there... what do i use in ubuntu to manage the sending of those emails by other users ?
[00:39] <compdoc> Nanaharu, you run gparted, and use it to view/create the table
[00:40] <anew> so like i click on a profile, click 'contact'
[00:40] <compdoc> Nanaharu, actually yo boot gparted
[00:40] <compdoc> you
[00:40] <anew> they fill out a form and click send
[00:40] <anew> and it gets sent to that persons email address
[00:40] <MestreLeo> I need help: im trying to install 12.04 in a friends (very old) laptop, using usb.Xubuntu live works, but Ubuntu halts when entering graphical mode.any directions?
[00:40] <Nanaharu> compdoc : Oh okay. And that should help with the install or will that itself install the OS?
[00:41] <MestreLeo> or, in other words: is there any "pre-live-sesion" where I can configure live mode not to halt?
[00:43] <MestreLeo> Xubuntu enters live session just fine, so I guess thisis not kernel-related. is there a way to force 12.04 to boot in safe mode VGA?
[00:43] <anew> anyone ?
[00:44] <compdoc> Nanaharu, it will fix a problem and let you install Ubuntu, if it is the problem

[00:57] <compdoc> elisa87, you can d/l any version from the mirrors of www.gnu.org. Some forums seem to suggest you can have both installed at the same time.
[00:58] <elisa87> the problem is that I don't know how to download it using wget from the site..can you help me? compdoc

[01:05] <tatertots> i installed ubuntu 12.04 64 bit and when i go to reboot the computer ( dual booting with windows 87) windows 8 boot manager will not let me boot Ubuntu
[01:06] <redrocket> anybody know how to fix permissions on a usb drive. tried gksudo nautilus but changes just revert root ownership, tried sudo chown, chmod, etc...
[01:06] <dr_willis> yourimym1: huh? you can use gparted from a live desktop to make swap partitions.
[01:06] <dr_willis> redrocket: what fs is on the usn
[01:07] <dr_willis> usb?
[01:07] <yourimym1> dr_willis: is there other way to do it without live-cd or usb ?
[01:07] <redrocket> ntfs. is that what you mean?
[01:07] <dr_willis> you do NOT chown/chmod ntfs/vfat :-P
[01:07] <redrocket> :0
[01:07] <redrocket> well now I know!
[01:08] <dr_willis> yourimym1: boot your actual os and do it there
[01:08] <dr_willis> !ntfs-3g
[01:08] <dr_willis> !info ntfs-config
[01:08] <redrocket> i had it mounting like that in fstab but it recently quit working. and couldn't mount
[01:09] <yourimym1> dr_willis: choose advanced option for ubuntu or start it normally ?
[01:09] <tatertots> i used the windows insaller and have ubuntu installed but windos 8 boot manager wont let it boot,  anyone know how to get around this issue ?
[01:09] <dr_willis> if the fs is marked as needing checked. it may revert to read only. or not mount at all redrocket
[01:10] <yourimym1> tatertots: boot-up manager may help
[01:10] <dr_willis> yourimym1: a normal live desktop.....  ive never noticed an advanced option....
[01:11] <yna1111> Hello, I hope everybody is alright. Wanted to ask if the installation of an Ubuntu cloud server on my own server only can be done by an Ubuntu engineer (http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/solutions/jumpstart) or if there is some sort of how to on how to do it on my own.
[01:11] <tatertots> yourimym1 -- do you have a windows 8 DL link  you could point me to ?
[01:11] <yourimym1> dr_willis: i think i don't have this option while booting !
[01:12] <dr_willis> yourimym1: the normal desktop cd does it just fine.....
[01:12] <yourimym1> tatertots: let me check for u
[01:12] <yourimym1> dr_willis: i dont have a working cd rom right now  neither usb stick
[01:13] <dr_willis> yourimym1: i have no idea what options you mean then
[01:13] <tatertots> last i checked the boot manager was the problem , maybe its UEFI ?  any experience with getting around UEFI?
[01:14] <OerHeks> yna1111, you can deploy your own server & cloud > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuCloudInfrastructure
[01:14] <elisa87> I have both gcc 4.4 and gcc 4.6 installed but I want my default gcc to be gcc4.4. What should I do?
[01:15]  * sj123 hi
[01:16] <yna1111> OerHeks, many many thanks!
[01:17] <elisa87> v
[01:17] <elisa87> I have both gcc 4.4 and gcc 4.6 installed but I want my default gcc to be gcc4.4. What should I do?
[01:18] <escott> elisa87, check /etc/alternatives
[01:18] <dr_willis> therse some system varables you set or try the alternatives system
[01:18] <escott> elisa87, and "update-alternatives"
[01:24] <Trinsta> hey guys, so i'm about to DBAN my alienware windows XP 2gb ram 3.2 ghz cpu and install ubuntu instead
[01:24]  * sj123 hi
[01:24] <Trinsta> never using linux before, any good tips on getting started?
[01:24] <Trinsta> also should I use 12.10 or 12.04 LTS?
[01:24] <dr_willis> !manual | Trinsta
[01:25] <Trinsta> ahh thank you
[01:25] <dr_willis> Trinsta:  whiich one to use. can depend on how new your  hardware is also
[01:25] <OerHeks> try it in live mode first
[01:25] <Trinsta> could i upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 12.10 without losing data in the future?
[01:26] <dr_willis> you can always upgrade
[01:26] <Tex_Nick> Trinsta:  something to consider ... you can dual boot win xp & ubuntu ... didn't know if tou were aware ot that ;-)
[01:26] <dr_willis> best to make a seperate /home/ partition in case you  want to make your life easier
[01:27] <dr_willis> you can test/play/toy with ubuntu and the installer in a virtualbox session all you  want. ;) to learn the basics
[01:27] <dr_willis> but i tend to use Lubuntu in vbox since lubuntu is lighter on system resources
[01:27] <Trinsta> tex_nick: aware, i dont use that desktop anymore and iw as looking more to figuring out how to work with linux
[01:28] <Trinsta> so in the future I would have more experience on my linux run servers instead of asking other people for help :)
[01:28] <wissam> Hi , what is the best resolution for an image to be a grub splash scree?
[01:28] <Trinsta> so my plan is to go from ubuntu > debian > and hopefully CentOS
[01:28] <Tex_Nick> Trinsta:  ok, hey cool man ... trash windoze & live happily thereafter ;-)
[01:29] <dr_willis> i really dont see the point in having a plan to move from one disrto to another. ;)
[01:29] <litropy> Anyone know the chan for bitcoind or botcoin-qt?
[01:29] <dr_willis> they all can do about the same tasks..
[01:29] <dr_willis> !alis > litropy
[01:30] <Trinsta> litropy: be careful of scammers
[01:30] <yourimym1> !VirtualBox
[01:31] <litropy> Trinsta, you mean bitcoin scammers? Yep.
[01:31] <inflex> hiya folks, last night my father did the usual software updates  (about 84MB downloaded) and this morning he woke up to all his home directory missing O_o  Any ideas?
[01:31] <dr_willis> inflex:  use a live cd and look for it,. the fs may  need chedcked also.. the package manager normally dosent touch stuff in the users home
[01:32] <dr_willis> !fsck
[01:32] <inflex> dr_willis: that was my thought as well.  Told him to shut it down and not touch it until I can examine it.
[01:32] <mailson> to install apache+php+mysql in 12.10 i just need to type sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ right?
[01:32] <kalenjohnson> mailson, that should work
[01:32] <dr_willis> !lamp
[01:32] <mailson> kalenjohnson: it says it couldn't find the package lamp-server
[01:32] <inflex> dr_willis: 17 years of linux and I've never had that happen... and yet my father can manage to break anything - oh the fun.
[01:33] <mailson> kalenjohnson: this is a new install, to you think an update of the repository is needed?
[01:33] <dr_willis> inflex:  if he lost power.. or just powered down.. a fsck may be needed
[01:33] <Onixs> live usb cant mount another usb stick ?
[01:33] <stupidBYdefault> JU
[01:33] <Onixs> live usb stick*
[01:33] <kalenjohnson> mailson, oh, maybe that's for servers
[01:33] <dr_willis> Onixs:  i mount them just fine from live-usbs
[01:34] <stupidBYdefault> hello need some answers on what is x11
[01:34] <Onixs> dr_willis : automatically or manually ?
[01:34] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  the wiki pedia pages may be usefull.. its the  foundation layer/software of the whole Desktop interface
[01:34] <kalenjohnson> mailson, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP try sudo apt-get install tasksel then sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[01:34] <dr_willis> Onixs:  yes to both..  never  had any issues.
[01:34] <yourimym1> is there a virtual machine to run android apps under ubuntu 12.10
[01:35] <mailson> kalenjohnson: it's weird because i've tried this a couple of days ago on a friends pc and it worked
[01:35] <mailson> kalenjohnson: thanks! i'll try that
[01:35] <Onixs> dr_willis : ok. il try again … Thanks!
[01:36] <Quen> So, I'm running Kubuntu, but since that channel has just been /so/ helpful over the past couple days, I'm asking here instead. I can't get CD's to mount properly when I put them in the drive, which makes ripping the music off them pretty much impossible to do properly; I don't think it's the CD itself, because it works just fine in my stereo. How can I figure out what's wrong here?
[01:36] <dr_willis> Quen:  you dont mount music cds
[01:37] <Quen> It can't read them to transfer the files off.
[01:37] <mailson> kalenjohnson: i'm. I got the same error with tasksel, so I guess I have another problem here :(
[01:37] <dr_willis> it could be the /deb/cdrom  is an invalid link to the wrong /dev/sr0 device
[01:37] <stupidBYdefault> hy all
[01:37] <stupidBYdefault> wha t is x11?
[01:37] <dr_willis>  /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd are links to the actual sr# device.
[01:37] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  the wiki pedia pages may be usefull.. its the  foundation layer/software of the whole Desktop interface
[01:38] <Quen> stupidBYdefault; DE framework, it's what makes Ubuntu so pretty.
[01:38] <Quen> dr_willis; I checked those, they look fine.
[01:38] <Tex_Nick> Quen : are those the original music CD's or copies ?
[01:38] <dr_willis> Quen:  try some alternative ripper apps. run them from terminal. look for error messages
[01:38] <stupidBYdefault> is this like another desktop? like.. theme?
[01:39] <Quen> Original disks.
[01:39] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  its the  'foundation' of the ALL the desktops.
[01:39] <mailson> kalenjohnson: a apt-get update solved the problem. thanks!
[01:39] <Quen> I've tried ripping by manual copy, still won't work.
[01:39] <stupidBYdefault> u, nice, tnx.. how to install?
[01:39] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  its installed by default.. since its what all the desktops are using.
[01:40] <dr_willis> unless you did a server install..
[01:40] <stupidBYdefault> am.. no.. i get this linux 12.04 lts on usb
[01:41] <stupidBYdefault> so, how to use it?
[01:41] <X-warrior> This is my smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/1Es1ADDn tested by testparm... inside the log I see:   smb_panic(): calling panic action [/usr/share/samba/panic-action 1928] a lot... ideas?
[01:41] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  be a bit mroe detailed in what you mean.. you burn the iso to usb or disk.. boot it up.. it goes to the unity desktop
[01:42] <stupidBYdefault> correct.. no option for anything else..
[01:42] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  be a bit mroe detailed in what you mean..
[01:42] <dr_willis> theres 100's of options... for dozens of things..
[01:43] <Quen> Your choice of desktop environment depends entirely on what you want it to do.
[01:43] <X-warrior> If I try smbclient -L xyz -U inexistent_user... it asks for my password and "tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_PIPE_BROKEN"
[01:43] <stupidBYdefault> aha.. i am not sure how it say by name.. enviroment? gnome, unity..
[01:43] <Quen> I, personally, like KDE.
[01:43] <dr_willis> the ubuntu live cd - uses unity.. the kubuntu live cd uses Kde.
[01:43] <dr_willis> Lubuntu uses lxde...
[01:43] <X-warrior> my iptables -L don't show any rule
[01:44] <SolarisBoy> did you create any?
[01:44] <dr_willis> X-warrior:  that nt_status message seems to be a generic 'it failed' message.. i never have figured out what it really  means
[01:44] <SolarisBoy> !ufw
[01:44] <stupidBYdefault> no way to use this 12.04 lts with KDE?
[01:44] <dr_willis> stupidBYdefault:  the Kubuntu live cd - loads to KDE.
[01:45] <X-warrior> dr_willis, uhmmm
[01:45] <black_baron_> warrior: ummm....what?
[01:45] <X-warrior> thinking
[01:46] <adnappanda> exit
[01:47] <stupidBYdefault> exit
[01:47] <stupidBYdefault> tnx all
[01:47] <stupidBYdefault> bye
[01:47] <X-warrior> what about this: NetBIOS over TCP disabled -- no workgroup available?
[01:48] <luck> hi
[01:48] <luck> my laptop touch pad doesn't work for ubuntu 12.04
[01:49] <luck> any idea?
[01:52] <orudie> can someone please give me some hints on how to make my ssh server a proxy server ? I tried ssh -D option from the manual, 'ssh -D 1080 proxy.hostname'
[01:53] <orudie> but it tries to just open ssh connection on port 1080
[01:54] <Tex_Nick> luck : you might state your hardware ... that way people will better know if they can help
[01:54] <panorain> is a 'slice' the same as a 'partition' is dealing with grub1 or 2 ?
[01:54] <Quen> Where do I look to find out whether or not I have LAME?
[01:55] <panorain> or does bsd use slices whereis ubuntu uses partitions?
[01:55] <Tex_Nick> panorain:  good to see you ;-)
[01:55] <panorain> Tex_Nick yo
[01:55] <panorain> Quen pull up a terminal  dpkg -l | less
[01:56] <panorain> Quen that will list you packages that have been or tried to install
[01:56] <luck> Tex_Nick: my laptop is Toshiba Satellite C855 series
[01:56] <panorain> Tex_Nick good to see you also
[01:57] <panorain> let me get lost for a bit i'll be back
[01:57] <Quen> Is LAME available via apt-get, it's not on my package list.
[01:57] <panorain> Quen I am not familiar with LAME you can look in synaptics if you have that apt installed
[01:58] <Vivekananda> couldnot find a specific channel for sqliteman for ubuntu. Can someone tell me keyboard shortcut to comment out lines
[01:58] <panorain> Quen open termianl  keys> dpkg-l |less
[01:58] <Quen> panorain; It's an mp3 codec for conversion purposes.
[01:59] <panorain> Quen dpkg will show you if Lame is installed with apt
[01:59] <dr_willis> !find lame
[01:59] <dr_willis> !info lame
[02:00] <panorain> dr_willis good to see you
[02:00] <Vivekananda> dr_willis: howdy
[02:00] <dr_willis> moo!
[02:01] <black_baron_> MOO!
[02:01] <dr_willis> thats an unusual version for lame.. never noticed somthing with 'repack' in the version  befor.
[02:02] <travis_> Ok, so the change user name command is a little confusing for me. Do I usermod -l <new name> <old name> ?
[02:02] <panorain> dr_willis do you reccomend dpkg-l |less for observing packages?
[02:03] <dr_willis> i rarely use  the more advanced commands of the apt system panorain .
[02:03] <panorain> dr_willis ok thank you
[02:03] <luck> dr_willis: do you know why touch pad not working in ubuntu
[02:04] <dr_willis> luck beacuse of the varity of touchpads.. and  the changes to the X input stuff i imagine. - I have heard/read that 13.04 improves touchpad support..
[02:04] <dr_willis> id check askubuntu.com for your specific hardware - to see if anyone has  any fixs or updates/patches..
[02:04] <luck> dr_willis: can  you tell me step by step? because my laptop touch pad is not working
[02:05] <dr_willis> luck i cant tell you step by step anything on the topic other then #1 - check askubuntu.com #2 check the forums for your  exact hardware. ;)
[02:05] <panorain> Quen did you see your package LAME in the command dpkg -l |less?
[02:06] <tremby> can someone please tell me if a standard installation of ubuntu 12.10 comes with curl and wget installed?
[02:06] <dr_willis> tremby:  i think curl yes.. not sure about  wget
[02:06] <Quen> No, so I assumed that meant it wasn't on my system and I'd have to install it; hence why I asked if it could be found via apt-get.
[02:06] <dr_willis> i dont recall ever insrtalling curl. but  i  have installed wget befor
[02:06] <tremby> dr_willis: how sure are you that curl is preinstalled?
[02:06] <needhelp_> Help!!! I hang on the purple screen when booting no matter how many time I reinstall the ubuntu. I can get to grub but then every thing purple.
[02:06] <dr_willis> i thought  apt uses curl to download stuff.
[02:07] <tremby> maybe libcurl, probably not curl commandline program
[02:07] <dr_willis> !nomodeset | needhelp_
[02:07] <panorain> Quen I am a noob I feel uncomfortable saying anything about sudo or root at this time
[02:07] <anna18> hi guys
[02:07] <panorain> Quen I am sorry I am not much help
[02:07] <elisa87> E: Package 'gcc-4.3' has no installation candidate
[02:07] <Quen> Ah, then we're in the same boat, at least.
[02:07] <elisa87> why so ? E: Package 'gcc-4.3' has no installation candidate
[02:08] <dr_willis> elisa87:  wrong package name.. or its not avail in the repos for  your release
[02:08] <needhelp_> Thx, let me try
[02:08] <dr_willis> or theres a new version replaceing it?
[02:08] <Quen> I tried searching out for LAME with apt-get -d, just to see if it exists; it's not out there.
[02:08] <panorain> Quen lett me have a look also
[02:08] <dr_willis> Quen:  apt-cache search lame   dosent show it?
[02:09] <Quen> I didn't know that command existed.
[02:09] <panorain> Quen switch to lowercase letters  lame
[02:09] <dr_willis> err.. its a core apt command. ;)
[02:09] <dr_willis> apt-get downloads/installs stuff... apt-cache  searches
[02:10] <dr_willis> sudo apt-get install lame                should  install it
[02:10] <Quen> I'm not really all that familiar with apt.
[02:10] <Quen> Or most of Linux, for that matter.
[02:10] <dr_willis> !apt
[02:10] <panorain> Quen 3.98.2 is on 10.04 repos  I am sorry I did not mention lower case lettering
[02:10] <Quen> My Windows machine borked a few days ago.
[02:11] <Quen> A reinstall left me without internet access for lack of a driver for my network card.
[02:11] <Quen> So here I am.
[02:11] <Quen> Tried it in lower case, that found it.
[02:11] <dr_willis> no drivers  for  your windows box? or linux  box?
[02:11] <panorain> Quen what type of wireless card do you have in your machine?
[02:11] <mdh> my favorite is cardboard box
[02:12] <dr_willis> amazing how the same driver works for  20+ differnt wireless cards in linux.. but windows needs 20 differnt driver downloads....
[02:12] <Quen> ^
[02:12] <Quen> Linux worked right out of the box.
[02:12] <panorain> dr_willis can I reccomend a ralinkrtl2561?
[02:12] <Quen> And I don't have the driver CD's because it's an AlienWare via mail-order.
[02:12] <panorain> dr_willis reccomend *
[02:13] <Quen> So Windows went out the window.
[02:13] <Quen> Heh.
[02:13] <dr_willis> I got some wifi dongles off amazon.. made sure the reviews said they  worked out of the box with ubuntu. ;P Plug  them in . they work..
[02:13] <panorain> Quen pm me I am a noob I am around
[02:13] <Quen> My network card is something that starts with Centrino.
[02:14] <sandmanslim> older laptop...dell latitude d420. Worth it to move to SSD? Would ubuntu run noticeably faster?
[02:14] <panorain> intell wireless
[02:14] <panorain> Quen I think your good
[02:14] <Quen> Hardware Info plasmoid gives me a little blurb on it.
[02:14] <panorain> Quen lspci in terminal
[02:14] <Quen> It worked out of the box with kubuntu.
[02:14] <panorain> Quen cool
[02:14] <packetfrog> sandmanslim,  Was your harddrive read/writes the problem before with that laptop?
[02:14] <packetfrog> If not, no.
[02:15] <escott> sandmanslim, if your problem is disk access sure, but its probably not disk access
[02:15] <sandmanslim> no problems, looking for performance increase
[02:15] <Quen> I'm on an ethernet port, but the wireless works too.
[02:16] <packetfrog> sandmanslim, Find out what is the bottleneck and you will know what to upgrade or spend more money on, on your next system.
[02:16] <panorain> Quen I only have wireless I know a bit about ralink pci card and wpa_supplicant from dapper drake
[02:16] <Quen> So, numerous reinserts, and I can mount a CD to rip tracks from it; that's solved. I think I have LAME now, gonna check that post-haste. I only have one major problem left to fix.
[02:17] <Quen> Wow, one day and I got all that done here; much more helpful than the official Kubuntu channel.
[02:17] <panorain> Quen reboot now if your data is backed up
[02:17] <sandmanslim> thanks packetfrog...i'm going to get serious about finding bottleneck. Processor tends to max out with more than one program running.
[02:17] <packetfrog> sandmanslim,  Then there is your first bottleneck. If your cpu is pegged   no point upgrading $100+ dollar ssd   itll still be pegged
[02:18] <mike777> need some help with server 12.10... logging in through putty... it shows there are 131 packages that can be udpated... but when i run update and upgrade... nothing comes back needing updated
[02:18] <sandmanslim> (sheepish) thank you!
[02:18] <Quen> panorain; Hm?
[02:20] <dr_willis> mike777: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   perhaps..  or the motd is just wrong..
[02:20] <mike777> there it is... thanks dr_willis
[02:21] <thecodethinker> How do I remove a link to a no longer existing file (I don't think I used link right but...) I try to install a new (to me) version of npm. I deleted the old one because I didn't get it from a repo but now when I type in "npm" it looks for the old npm installation. How do I tell it to look for the new one?
[02:21] <Quen> Alright, so, my last major issue on Kubuntu, probably the biggest as well; I'm missing OpenGL, and 3D acceleration support, after trying the proprietary nVidia drivers for my graphics card.
[02:22] <Quen> It worked fine out of the box, the Nouveau driver rendered MineCraft just fine.
[02:22] <thecodethinker> Quen: if it ain't broke, don't fix it ;)
[02:23] <Quen> Yeah, I realize my error by this point.
[02:23] <Quen> Can't play MineCraft any more.
[02:23] <thecodethinker> Quen: you should be able to set it back to that driver
[02:23] <Quen> It's running Nouveau again, but I'm still missing OpenGL and 3D support.
[02:24] <thecodethinker> Quen: do you have mesa installed?
[02:24] <Quen> Fairly certain.
[02:24] <Quen> Let me check.
[02:24] <thecodethinker> Quen: try sudo apt-get install libglw1-mesa
[02:26] <hero100> Is it possible to cut a new partition from root
[02:26] <thecodethinker> Quen: did that work?
[02:26] <thecodethinker> hero100: try gparted
[02:26] <Quen> "Unable to locate package".
[02:26] <thecodethinker> ??
[02:27] <thecodethinker> Quen: libglw1-mesa
[02:27] <Quen> Unless I spelled it wrong somehow.
[02:27] <thecodethinker> Quen: I may have typed it wrong
[02:27] <thecodethinker> Quen: I got that from apt-cache so... it's there
[02:27] <Quen> There it goes.
[02:27] <panorain> Tex_Nick can I pm you concerning partitions?
[02:27] <Quen> Installed.
[02:27] <thecodethinker> try minecraft now
[02:28] <thecodethinker> if it doesn't work... try reboot... then... see if that workds
[02:28] <thecodethinker> works*
[02:28] <Quen> I know this screen, it crashed and the crash screen has yet to come up.
[02:28] <Quen> Reboot it is.
[02:28] <thecodethinker> gl
[02:29] <Quen> Before that;
[02:29] <thecodethinker> anyway can anyone help me with my issue?
[02:29] <thecodethinker> Quen: oh?
[02:29] <panorain> dr_willis grub2 picks up and boots my 2nd drive distro but I get errors
[02:29] <Tex_Nick> panorain:  sure :)
[02:29] <panorain> Tex_Nick ok thanks
[02:29] <subcool> Can someone help me with a /home issue?
[02:30] <Quen> In the info center, when I click on Graphical Information, then OpenGL, it gives me an error saying "Could not initialize OpenGL."
[02:30] <litropy> I'm trying to get hardware temperature info from CLI. lm-sensors can't find any modules to load, and nv-clock says, "Error: temperature monitoring isn't supported on your videocard." Ideas?
[02:30] <subcool> i just re-installed kubuntu, but my computer drops boot once passing the ubuntu gear
[02:30] <thecodethinker> Quen: o to system settings. I have an idea
[02:31] <thecodethinker> Quen: after that go to software sources
[02:31] <thecodethinker> Quen: tell me when that opens up
[02:32] <Quen> I don't see software sources on here.
[02:32] <thecodethinker> Quen:  what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:32] <thecodethinker> 12.04?
[02:32] <Quen> 12.10, though I'm using the KDE environment.
[02:32] <thecodethinker> it should be there. at the bottom of system settings
[02:33] <Quen> But #kubuntu has been absolutely /no/ help the past couple days.
[02:34] <thecodethinker> hmm... look in that kde search thing for software sources
[02:34] <thecodethinker> Quen: I'm going to download kubuntu real fast in a VM.
[02:35] <Quen> I can't find anything on software sources.
[02:35] <thecodethinker> Quen: let me grab kubuntu. I'll help u then. in like 5 mins
[02:35] <thecodethinker> In the mean time (looks up)
[02:35] <needhelp_> For the PURPLE screen boot problem, I still get purple after change the parameter of the nomodeset. I used the "temporarily set kernel boot options on an installed OS" of the link.
[02:36] <thecodethinker> How do I remove a link to a no longer existing file (I don't think I used link right but...) I try to install a new (to me) version of npm. I deleted the old one because I didn't get it from a repo but now when I type in "npm" it looks for the old npm installation. How do I tell it to look for the new one?
[02:36] <Quen> I literally have all night, I'll get this fixed one way or another.
[02:36] <thecodethinker> Quen: torrents are amazing so the kubutnu download won't take long
[02:38] <Quen> In the mean time, how in the world to I use the "rename" command properly?
[02:38] <hero100> thecodethinker: gparted cannot make change to root partition
[02:38] <Quen> I have a bunch of files prepended with the same string and I want to get rid of it.
[02:39] <ltrottier> So, weirdest thing: all (and only) my "e" characters have been replaced by a unicode symbol I don't recognize
[02:39] <Quen> That /is/ weird...
[02:39] <ltrottier> and only in ubuntu GUI, not in normal console
[02:40] <ltrottier> in gui console, yes, but not in ctrl-alt-fx console
[02:40] <Quen> That's weirder than how my GUI desktop clock randomly set itself to UDT from my normal timezone.
[02:41] <ttoti> Wrong keyboard layout?
[02:41] <ltrottier> one character/
[02:41] <ltrottier> ?
[02:43] <ltrottier> I guess I should just restart
[02:49] <Guest27533> Does ubuntu runs on arm v6
[02:50] <elisa87> E: Package 'glutg3-dev' has no installation candidate what should I do?
[02:52] <ScottJensen> postfix or sendmail?
[02:52] <CrazyArseMutt> any ideas on where i can talk about the free fcc internet? and popular tech rooms anyone here know about?
[02:53] <elisa87> how can I install a .deb? glutg3-dev_3.7-25_all.deb
[02:55] <Guest27533> Avu
[02:55] <Onixs>  possible to install ubuntu n usb and run it there
[02:55] <Onixs> not installer , but a full running os
[02:55] <ltrottier> (fixed on restart … still awfully strange)
[02:55] <Guest27533> Yes
[02:55] <CrazyArseMutt> any ideas on where i can talk about the free fcc internet? and popular tech rooms anyone here know about?
[02:56] <CrazyArseMutt> oh, sorry i didnt realize i had pasted already - my bad
[02:56] <Guest27533> Possible on usb
[02:56] <CrazyArseMutt> yeah
[02:56] <CrazyArseMutt> yes on usb
[02:56] <CrazyArseMutt> but the trick will be to get it to save os changes you make when it is running live onthe usb
[02:56] <Guest27533> What is fcc internet
[02:57] <sdfsasf> hey, can someone help me with lilo?
[02:57] <CrazyArseMutt> its a really good idea the director had recently
[02:57] <nintnint> hey
[02:58] <luck> nintnint: hi
[02:58] <Guest27533> Hoooooff!!
[02:58] <nintnint> hows everybody doing to(morning/day/night)
[02:58] <Guest27533> Does ubuntu runs on arm v6
[02:58] <sdfsasf> why can't I get any help? :(
[02:58] <fauxhebro> Hey guys, I have an alienware laptop with Raid0 setup. I have made 500gb free of space but am unsure of installation, everything seems to be leading me in different directions
[02:58] <elisa87> [../../bin/linux/release/randomFog] Error 1   undefined reference to `gluErrorString' apparently  cannot find -lGLU
[02:58] <spencer> If I want to use postfix to get mail on my system. Should my "mail name" be<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[02:59] <Guest27533> Good mrng!
[02:59] <nintnint> fauxhebro, what do you mean
[02:59] <fauxhebro> I want to install Ubuntu alongside windows 7
[02:59] <nintnint> sounds simple
[02:59] <fauxhebro> i am a noob
[02:59] <fauxhebro> do i enable fakeraid ?
[02:59] <fauxhebro> thank you for the assistance btw
[02:59] <nintnint> fauxhebro, do what your heart tells you.
[03:00] <fauxhebro> -___-
[03:00] <nintnint> because i have no clue.
[03:00] <dr_willis> !raid
[03:00] <spencer> fauxhebro: no need to enable fake raid especialy if you are a noob
[03:00] <fauxhebro> thanks tho lol
[03:00] <CrazyArseMutt> faux do it through the official ubuntu site - and always check the official windows site before you do those things - you want to make sure you follow manufacturer's recomendations
[03:00] <thecodethinker> Quen: did anyone help u or are you still waiting on me?
[03:00] <Quen> thecodethinker; I'm still waiting.
[03:01] <thecodethinker> Quen: okay sorry about that
[03:01] <fauxhebro> thank you, reading now this seems helpful
[03:01] <Quen> Plenty to pass the time with, but having mineCraft would make passing time even easier.
[03:01] <nintnint> im about to get minecraft going
[03:01] <thecodethinker> Quen: i didn't have vbox installed so... doing that
[03:01] <nintnint> from what I know I need the .jar file and to run it as an executable.
[03:01] <Quen> I see.
[03:01] <nintnint> i read that should work.
[03:02] <Guest27533> How Can i play minecraft on android
[03:02] <fauxhebro> So do I install fakeraid and then install on partitions beside Windows 7 ?
[03:02] <Quen> Guest27533; With the Android MineCraft App.
[03:02] <Quen> MineCraft Pocket Edition.
[03:03] <thecodethinker> Quen: u sure like MC huh?
[03:03] <nintnint> yay it works
[03:03] <Guest27533> Thanku:-)
[03:03] <Quen> It's my anti-drug.
[03:03] <nintnint> see quen..
[03:03] <thecodethinker> Quen: lol?
[03:03] <nintnint> minecraft is my drug..
[03:03] <Quen> ^
[03:03] <thecodethinker> lol!
[03:03] <thecodethinker> I get bored of it after a week. then I play it again... then get bored again
[03:03] <thecodethinker> I like looking at it's code though
[03:04] <thecodethinker> Notch and jeb did a hell of a job
[03:04] <Quen> ^
[03:04] <Quen> ^
[03:04] <k4ib1l45> do you want real hard drugs?
[03:04] <al_la> Running 12.10, after a normal restart, my screen no longer locks on power save->inactive.  Tried changing settings, restarting, etc, but still won't lock.  Thoughts?
[03:04] <nintnint> I can't get into the game enough to do stuff like farming, enchanting, making villages, maps, trading things..
[03:04] <thecodethinker> k4ib1l45: no nobody like dwarf fortress
[03:04] <Quen> I'm not fluent in java, but I like trying to figure it out.
[03:04] <thecodethinker> Quen: java is .... (sigh) I wish they didn't use java
[03:04] <Quen> That bad, huh?
[03:04] <CrazyArseMutt> i dont know why you pguys like that game - the grapohics ar ehorrendous
[03:04] <thecodethinker> Quen: it can be
[03:05] <Quen> I'm learning C++ for college presently.
[03:05] <k4ib1l45> C is for the real men
[03:05] <Quen> I've heard a bunch of people whine about Java.
[03:05] <CrazyArseMutt> if you like that stuff why dont you just play with a ti-89 calculator all day?>
[03:05] <nintnint> CrazyArseMutt, because it looks simplistic and maybe kind of old school.
[03:05] <Guest27533> I have linux installed in my android, but it is not able to connect with any sensor(bluetooth, speakers..etc) it just runs in terminal or vnc app. How to fix this, plz help!
[03:05] <thecodethinker> Quen: a little while ago java had a really bad security hole. It was recomended by M$ and I think the NSA to disable java
[03:05] <nintnint> CrazyArseMutt, because a ti-89 is really expensive!
[03:05] <CrazyArseMutt> the ti-89 is old school and then there is graph paper
[03:05] <thecodethinker> Quen: also it takes like 50 lines of code to do something that C++ can do in 2 lines
[03:05] <Quen> I see.
[03:06] <Guest27533> (Guest27533) I have linux installed in my android, but it is not able to connect with any sensor(bluetooth, speakers..etc) it just runs in terminal or vnc app. How to fix this, plz help!
[03:06] <CrazyArseMutt> nah you can get one for 60$ kep checking ebay and amazon they are out there
[03:06] <Quen> Like how haskell can make sorting algorythims in 7 lines that C does in 20?
[03:06] <Guest27533> My linux in android also compiles c  c++ java and do python. But now i want bluetooth..
[03:07] <thecodethinker> Quen: yeah but haskell is made for that
[03:07] <thecodethinker> Quen: C++ is general purpose. Haskell is more math oriented
[03:07] <Quen> True.
[03:07] <CrazyArseMutt> you can get a ti-89 program to run as a gui too
[03:07] <Quen> I've been thinking about toying with LISP.
[03:07] <CrazyArseMutt> just a solid graphing calculator
[03:07] <thecodethinker> Quen: I like haxe. currently my favorite language
[03:07] <thecodethinker> Quen: and I am learning JS to get into webgl
[03:07] <thecodethinker> Quen: I make games :P
[03:08] <Quen> *yay*
[03:08] <Guest27533> Good day frnds! Keep smiling
[03:09] <thecodethinker> Quen: so running kubuntu in a VM with 512mb of memory is fun -_-
[03:09] <Quen> Heh.
[03:09] <Quen> Ouch.
[03:09] <Guest27533> (Guest27533) (Guest27533) I have linux installed in my android, but it is not able to connect with any sensor(bluetooth, speakers..etc) it just runs in terminal or vnc app. How to fix this, plz help!
[03:09] <thecodethinker> Quen: woot ... crash -_-
[03:09] <Quen> 1G would be better, if you can spare it.
[03:10] <Guest27533> (Guest27533) My linux in android also compiles c  c++ java and do python. But now i want bluetooth..
[03:10] <Quen> I take 0.7G with nothing running.
[03:10] <thecodethinker> Quen: well my computer only has 16Gb... but i would have to put in work to change it...
[03:10] <thecodethinker> Guest27533: android runs on linux....
[03:10] <Quen> Oh, my, such effort!
[03:10] <thecodethinker> Quen: ikr it's like 5 clicks
[03:10] <Quen> The horror!
[03:11] <Guest27533> No i have linux on android
[03:11] <CrazyArseMutt> will android get into making os for coreboot and google open os?
[03:11] <Guest27533> In ch root linux runs on android. (Debian and ubuntu)
[03:12] <thecodethinker> Guest27533: android runs on linux... not the other way around. Ur are just acessing a shell...
[03:12] <thecodethinker> I can
[03:12] <thecodethinker> 't spell :'(
[03:13] <thecodethinker> Quen: go to system then additional drivers
[03:13] <thecodethinker> WOOT ANOTHER CRASH -_-
[03:13] <Guest27533> Yes assesig a shell . Complete linux installer app and debian.iso in chroot in sdcard
[03:13] <thecodethinker> Guest27533: but still not linux on android
[03:13] <Quen> The additional drivers were the problem I tried to undo using.
[03:13] <thecodethinker> Quen: you should be able to there
[03:14] <Quen> I have all of the drivers there disabled.
[03:14] <thecodethinker> what driver are u currently using?
[03:14] <Quen> Nouveau.
[03:14] <dr_willis> Quen:  got no old xorg.conf being used causing issues?
[03:14] <Guest27533> So can i get sensors in that shell
[03:14] <Quen> Purged the xorg.conf.
[03:15] <thecodethinker> Guest27533: idk. Ur kind of hacking ur way through that. I'm not sure if people here can help
[03:15] <dr_willis> made sure the modules are not blacklisted still Quen ?
[03:15] <Quen> Not sure how to find that, dr_willis.
[03:15] <thecodethinker> Quen: did u try reinstalling Kubuntu?
[03:15] <dr_willis> !blacklist
[03:15] <Guest27533> Thanku! Good day
[03:15] <thecodethinker> Quen: that fixes everything
[03:15] <CrazyArseMutt> Guest27533, what are you trying to do?  get you internal mobo sensors operational?
[03:15] <dr_willis> in /etc/modprob.d/ there mightbe  a blacklist  entry  for the noveau drivers
[03:16] <Quen> I have some stuff installed that I don't want to drop.
[03:16] <CrazyArseMutt> oh, nevermind - way outta my league
[03:16] <thecodethinker> Quen: back it up :D. just saying... super easy fix to everything
[03:17] <Quen> The blacklist in modprob.d says not to edit the file manually.
[03:18] <Quen> There's four entries with nouveau in them.
[03:18] <dr_willis> i would move them out to some other directory. or comment  them.. that may  be  the issue
[03:18] <dr_willis> the  nvidia drivers may  have added the  lines.. but  dident remove them
[03:18] <Nanaharu> so I'm installing ubuntu and it seems like it's stuck at congifuring hardware... Is it just slow or will it eventually time out if nothings happening?
[03:19] <thecodethinker> How do I remove a link to a no longer existing file (I don't think I used link right but...) I try to install a new (to me) version of npm. I deleted the old one because I didn't get it from a repo but now when I type in "npm" it looks for the old npm installation. How do I tell it to look for the new one?
[03:19] <dr_willis> thecodethinker:  just rm it like  yiu  would a file
[03:19] <Quen> What of a part of lines the likes of "alias *nouveau off"?
[03:19] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: rm what tho?
[03:19] <Quen> I presume I should comment those as well?
[03:20] <dr_willis> thecodethinker:  the link.
[03:20] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: see I don't think i used link right. I am trying to change a term command
[03:20] <dr_willis> Quen:  ive not really  had to mess with it . so im not sure. I  just recall seeing others get things stuck  as blacklisted
[03:20] <ntzrmtth1hu777> nick ntzrmtthihu777
[03:20] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: thecodethinker@5AGE:~/Documents/Tools/cloud9/bin$ node
[03:20] <thecodethinker> bash: /usr/local/bin/node: No such file or directory
[03:20] <Quen> Hrm, it says the file was created by an nvidia driver, maybe I could just get rid of it?
[03:21] <CrazyArseMutt> what are the best rooms for tech discussions?
[03:21] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: trying it change it from looking in /usr/local/bin/node to just /usr/bin
[03:21] <dr_willis> thecodethinker:  if yoou  deleted a binary from your path.  the shell sort of caches whats in the path. the  rehash command  would make it rescan.  try 'which node'  to  see what  one its trying to run
[03:22] <dr_willis> i  think its rehash
[03:22] <ntzrmtthihu777> is irc.ubuntu.net still active or can I delete that from my irssi config?
[03:22] <nintnint> meet a giant fish.
[03:22] <nintnint> love its brains out
[03:23] <nintnint> turn in to a jet
[03:23] <Quen> Only after you black out in the sewer.
[03:23] <nintnint> EAT SOME CHICKEN STRIPS
[03:23] <Quen> Then you bomb the Russians and crash into the sun.
[03:23] <SolarisBoy> now im hungry again
[03:24] <wayne__> I'm jacked up on sleeping pills
[03:24] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: which node gave me the right path
[03:24] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: so did which npm
[03:24] <dr_willis> thecodethinker:  try it in a new xterm   'xterm -ls' and see if it works
[03:25] <nintnint> wayne__, why
[03:25] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: that worked. thanks
[03:25] <dr_willis> thecodethinker:  bash  is cacheing the filenames of your path.. all you got to do  is log out/nback  in  basically
[03:25] <Tex_Nick> nintnint:  chill out man
[03:26] <Quen> Alright, popped the conf files made by the nVidia driver.
[03:26] <dr_willis> xterm -ls => login shell..  it rescans/rereads configs...  like  its a initial shell
[03:26] <ntzrmtthihu777> dr_willis: or could he do source ~/.bashrc ?
[03:26] <thecodethinker> dr_willis: i see.. thanks man
[03:26] <dr_willis> i recall the 'rehash' command correcting the issue also.. but  been ages ago since i  last use d it
[03:26] <subcool> i just re-installed kubuntu, but my computer drops boot once passing the ubuntu gear
[03:26] <subcool> Can someone help me with a /home issue?
[03:26] <cuser> !kubuntu
[03:27] <cuser> !kde
[03:28] <ntzrmtthihu777> cuser: do that at yourself, like !kde > cuser
[03:28] <ntzrmtthihu777> cuser: it will send it to you as a pm, so it does not flood the channel
[03:29] <dr_willis> just  /msg ubottu help
[03:29] <dr_willis> then have a deep meaningfull  conversation in private
[03:29] <dr_willis> some clients its /query ubottu  :)
[03:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> or /q ubottu
[03:31] <cuser> !xubuntu > cuser
[03:31] <Quen> Hrm, how on earth do I use the "rename" command?
[03:32] <cuser> where is the torrent url and hash for latest stable release of ubuntu?
[03:33] <cuser> also. where can i find the linux game irc channel?
[03:33] <bazhang> !hashes | cuser
[03:33] <bazhang> !torrents | cuser
[03:33] <bazhang> cuser  #ubuntu-steam
[03:33] <cuser> thanks. bazhang
[03:34] <cuser> any others?
[03:35] <bazhang> !alis | cuser have a search
[03:35] <warfaren> is there any way i can disable the keymapping for Alt+Left/Right to switch between virtual consoles?
[03:35] <warfaren> the program i'm using is also using those keymaps and i dont want virtual console switching to override it
[03:36] <lottowinner> 'netstat -s | less' reads: "Tcp: 13926 active connections openings". That seems like a lot of connections(?) and last night it was over 200,000. That sure does seem high I guess.
[03:37] <Quen> Can anyone here tell me how to use the rename command via terminal to remove a common prepended series of characters on several files at once?
[03:38] <danlee> !ubuntu
[03:38] <danlee> !ubuntu > danlee
[03:38] <warfaren> Quen: i think you're best off using a for loop
[03:38] <warfaren> Quen: if you let me PM you i can give you an example
[03:38]  * Quen isn't writing a script.
[03:39] <Nanaharu> My installer is stuck at configuring hardware. What do I do?
[03:39] <warfaren> no, this isn't about a script either. for loops can be used directly on the command line
[03:39] <Quen> I'd use the man page to figure it out, but it's completely unclear on how to use the command.
[03:40] <din> Quen, something like rename 's/foo/bar/g' *.txt
[03:40] <warfaren> yeah something like that
[03:41] <Quen> But what of that regex statement gets replaced with the other?
[03:41] <din> foo gets replaced with bar
[03:41] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: foo gets replaced with bat
[03:41] <ntzrmtthihu777> *bar
[03:41] <din> give me an example of your file name
[03:41] <din> you can try it on one file first then use * for all files.
[03:42] <Quen> "Job\ for\ a\ Cowboy\ -\ 01\ -\ Bearing\ the\ Serpents\ Lamb.wav" The all start with everything before the 01.
[03:42] <Quen> And I want to get rid of that bunch at the start.
[03:42] <warfaren> yeah so s/'Job for a Cowboy'//g
[03:42] <din> what he said.
[03:42] <warfaren> oh and' - '
[03:42] <din> :)
[03:43] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: as much as i love bash-scripting you can easily do this with a graphical tool named gprename
[03:43] <warfaren> in fact you wont even need the g
[03:43] <Quen> ntzrmtthihu777; See, I didn't know that existed.
[03:43] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: I use it all the time with my music colletion
[03:43] <din> Quen, just try it with the one file name for a test.
[03:43] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: but the rename command is rather nice
[03:43] <warfaren> or do like me. use the echo command first rather than rename
[03:43] <marcs1989> Hello. I'm a regular Ubuntu user and I don't really have enough experience to dev, but I was just wondering if there was any official announcement about the 'auto-hide launcher' feature and if it was going to be getting a patch anytime soon?
[03:43] <warfaren> then you'll see what it will look like but nothing actually happens
[03:44] <warfaren> if you're happy, just bring back the command and replace echo with mv or rename or whatever you're using
[03:44] <din> rename 's/Job for a Cowboy -'//g' *01*Serpents.wav
[03:44] <warfaren> din: think you're missing a '
[03:44] <din> doh
[03:45] <din> rename "s/'Job for a Cowboy -'//g" *01*Serpents.wav
[03:45] <din> that looks better. :)
[03:45] <warfaren> indeed
[03:45] <ntzrmtthihu777> gotta watch out for those quotes ;)
[03:45] <warfaren> yup :P
[03:45] <xxiao> diff 'sudo -i' 'sudo -s'
[03:46] <ntzrmtthihu777> question: in sed you can use things other that / as a delimiter in order to avoid having to escape the /'s in pathnames, can you do the same in rename?
[03:46] <Quen> Didn't remove the string.
[03:46] <xxiao> what's the difference...sudo -i vs sudo -s
[03:46] <xxiao> even sudo su
[03:46] <ntzrmtthihu777> !patience > xxiao
[03:47] <xxiao> less typing than su - root
[03:47] <din> Quen, i'll make the file here, figure it out and give you the command.
[03:47] <Quen> Appreciated, the man page doesn't tell me anything I can figure out.
[03:47] <ntzrmtthihu777> din: not to undercut you, but perhaps Quen should go with gprename. its pretty easy to learn.
[03:47] <warfaren> Quen: the manpage on what? rename?
[03:47] <Quen> warfaren; Yeah.
[03:48] <warfaren> ok
[03:48] <din> well, i refuse to be defeated by a regex ;)
[03:48] <dr_willis> use sudo -i   other ways can goof up settings
[03:48] <Quen> ntzrmtthihu777; I'd like to learn the terminal command, regardless.
[03:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: kk, just a thought.
[03:48] <dr_willis> i always look up rename examples
[03:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: what was the filename again or the general format?
[03:48] <Quen> I'm fairly new to Linux and I want to make myself at least mostly proficient.
[03:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: good. the best way, I find, is to try stuff :P
[03:49] <Quen> All the filenames start with "Job\ for\ a\ Cowboy\ -\ ".
[03:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> and you want that gone?
[03:49] <Quen> Followed by a number, then the track name.
[03:49] <warfaren> haha reminds me of all those times i tried to mass rename stuff and ending up combining all the files into one file :(
[03:49] <Quen> Yes, I want that first common bit gone.
[03:49] <warfaren> well, overwriting them one by one really
[03:50] <din> rename "s/Job\ for\ a\ Cowboy\ -//g" Job*.wav did it for me.
[03:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> yep, thats it.
[03:50] <warfaren> 's should work fine in the s/// syntax, so you dont have to worry about escaping all those spaces
[03:51] <din> yeah, it's a force of habit.
[03:51] <ntzrmtthihu777> same, lol
[03:51] <warfaren> yeah well whatever you're comfortable with :)
[03:51] <warfaren> besides i think the backslash is harder for me to write then you guys.. i have a swedish keyboard
[03:51] <Quen> Still have the first spaces, what would I stick in to get rid of those, without nixing the rest of the spacing of then names?
[03:52] <warfaren> on your keyboard it's just one key to write it right? not a key combo?
[03:52] <din> what first spaces?
[03:52] <warfaren> backslashes
[03:52] <Quen> "\ " at the very start.
[03:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: 's/^ //g'
[03:52] <Quen> Just one off the front.
[03:52] <din> yup.
[03:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: the ^ signifies the start of the filename
[03:53] <din> and $ signifies the end (for future reference)
[03:53] <ntzrmtthihu777> din: ahhh, thankya, I did not know that one
[03:53] <Quen> I've learned more here than from reading the entire manpage for rename, thanks.
[03:53] <subcool> Can someone help me with a /home issue?
[03:53] <subcool> i just re-installed kubuntu, but my computer drops boot once passing the ubuntu gear
[03:53] <subcool> I dont even know how to google it
[03:54] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: the manpages are pretty good for refreshing, but sometimes you need a live example to understand, no?
[03:54] <din> yean ntzrmtthihu777 so 's/ $//g' would remove spaces at the end.
[03:54] <warfaren> if you don't get an answer for a while, is it okay to repeat your question here? i mean i guess no1 will see my question after it getting pushed up so far
[03:54] <Quen> Yeah, can't argue with that.
[03:54] <noenoe> hello everybody...
[03:54] <ntzrmtthihu777> warfaren: whassup?
[03:54] <jason_> hi
[03:54] <warfaren> i was asking if i can disable alt+left/right toggling virtual consoles
[03:54] <Quen> There we go, now to try it on the other directory full of prepended identifiers.
[03:55] <ntzrmtthihu777> warfaren: you mean the desktops?
[03:55] <warfaren> no, virtual consoles. the ones you get to when you press ctrl+alt+f1 through f6
[03:55] <din> Quen, when you are comfortable with it, you can use * to specify all the files.
[03:55] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: make sure you clip it all off at once, makes it simpler.
[03:55] <din> of course nothing that doesn't match won't be affected.
[03:55] <ntzrmtthihu777> warfaren: aaah, the tty's
[03:56] <Quen> All done, thanks guys.
[03:56] <warfaren> well yeah...
[03:56] <warfaren> nice1
[03:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> warfaren: exactly why do you want to disable it?
[03:56] <DigitRig> if I use "locate somefilenamehere" how can I grep for the first result?
[03:56] <warfaren> because it overrides sending that key combo to my program
[03:56] <noenoe> if i wanna upgrade from 10.10 to 12.04...the data safe to that place?
[03:56] <Quen> Much quicker and less repetitive than renaming each one by one in Dolphin.
[03:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> DigitRig: use locate foo | more
[03:56] <din> DigitRig, locate file|head -1
[03:56] <Quen> And now that I actually know roughly how to do it, more convenient.
[03:56] <warfaren> and i'm fine with pressing alt+f1, f2 etc instead.. i dont switch VT's as often as i use the key combo for my program
[03:57] <din> warfaren, there's a way, trying to recall.
[03:57] <ntzrmtthihu777> Quen: yeah, i'm glad I got in on this learning session, I may be able to do some nifty for looped renaming now
[03:57] <warfaren> :)
[03:57] <Quen> *yay*
[03:57] <din> warfaren, check out /etc/inittab
[03:58] <Quen> I knew there had to be some power in the rename command, and now I know at least the basics of how to use it.
[03:58] <warfaren> din: oO it's not on my system
[03:58] <warfaren> i'm really surprised
[03:58] <din> well, i use all sorts of linux/unix machines. it's usually there.
[03:59] <din> heh, not on mine either.
[03:59] <warfaren> Quen: yeah, well in fact that power comes from the regular expressions and you find those everywhere, not just in rename
[03:59] <warfaren> haha
[03:59] <warfaren> i really expeced it to be there
[03:59] <warfaren> i'mma do find / -name inittab
[04:00] <din> warfaren, looks like you can just mv /etc/init/tty1.conf{,.bak}
[04:00] <din> that would disable tty1
[04:00] <din> so on and so forth for the rest.
[04:00] <warfaren> hm you mean so i'll end up with just one tty?
[04:00] <din> or however many you want.
[04:01] <din> the {,.bak} is a shortcut for renaming it...
[04:01] <din> fyi
[04:01] <warfaren> how's that gonna stop the key combo?
[04:01] <din> honestly i just googled it.
[04:01] <din> heh
[04:01] <warfaren> the only way i see that stopping it is leaving only one tty left so there's none other to switch to
[04:01] <warfaren> alright
[04:01] <warfaren> i was doing that before too
[04:01] <dr_willis> !inittab
[04:01] <dr_willis> upstart dosent use initab
[04:01] <warfaren> but all i could find was a list of the key combinations
[04:01] <din> you'll likely have to reboot after doing that.
[04:01] <Cyclohexane> Is it possible to ssh using a proxy? e.g. ssh -lroot host --proxy proxy.com:2992
[04:02] <Grimhound> I have a question. What is LVM, and is it worth installing with a new Ubuntu installation?
[04:02] <warfaren> Cyclohexane: sure, for one you could use tsocks
[04:02] <warfaren> but there are probably better solutions
[04:02] <dr_willis> !lvm
[04:02] <dr_willis> Grimhound: ive never needed it.
[04:02] <Cyclohexane> warfaren: how would I use tsocks?
[04:03] <Quen> Is it possible to use Kfrb to remote in to my Kubuntu machine from a different network; or can it only do LAN?
[04:03] <dr_willis> it lets you resize partitions and things on the fly
[04:03] <warfaren> Cyclohexane: it requires you to have a socks proxy available
[04:03] <Cyclohexane> warfaren: I will have a socks available
[04:03] <warfaren> you install tsocks, set up its config to point out the ip and port to the socks proxy, then you use it as a launcher for the command
[04:03] <warfaren> so basically tsocks ssh user@host
[04:03] <Cyclohexane> ah ok
[04:03] <Grimhound> Is there any downside to installing LVM?
[04:03] <warfaren> i'm not 100% sure it will work with ssh, though
[04:03] <Grimhound> Does it take up resources?
[04:04] <warfaren> but i think it might
[04:04] <Grimhound> Is it worth it if I'm installing Xubuntu onto a ratty old laptop?
[04:04] <dr_willis> Grimhound: doubtfull if you need it
[04:04] <din> Grimhound, LVM is logical volume management.
[04:05] <warfaren> isn't a lot of distros using LVM by default nowadays?
[04:05] <din> you know, combine several disks, into one logical volume, create raid 1 mirrors etc...
[04:05] <warfaren> Grimhound: how old is your laptop?
[04:05] <dr_willis> warfaren: i think redhat does.
[04:06] <Grimhound> It's a Compaq Presario C700 series
[04:06] <warfaren> right now i'm typing on an IBM thinkpad 600X with a pentium III 500mhz and 512MB ram
[04:06] <Grimhound> So... 2005-ey
[04:06] <Grimhound> I want to say, anyway
[04:06] <warfaren> it's running ubuntu 12.04 with X stopped
[04:06] <warfaren> running great
[04:07] <warfaren> but i intend to replace it with a faster distro eventually
[04:07] <din> warfaren, i'm on a macbook (2007) dual booting os x and ubuntu. :)
[04:07] <warfaren> surely a 2005 laptop shouldn't have any major problems with most distros i think
[04:07] <warfaren> depends on what you intend to do with it
[04:07] <warfaren> ah nice
[04:07] <Keyman009> Anyone feel like helping me understand why my current installation of libpcap cannot be seen by the ./configure script for DAQ-2.0.0?
[04:08] <Keyman009> I have a fresh install of Server 12.4.2
[04:09] <din> Keyman009, generally there's a log in the directory that will tell you what happened.
[04:09] <din> after the config.
[04:09] <din> maybe config.log... or something of the sort.
[04:09] <holstein> Keyman009: maybe whatever DAQ is expects a different version
[04:09] <Keyman009> Yes I have read the log... it just tells me that it cannot see an installation of libpcap version 1.0.0 or greater.
[04:10] <Keyman009> But it is installed (version 1.1.1 )
[04:10] <holstein> Keyman009: where did you get DAQ?
[04:11] <Keyman009> from snort.org
[04:11] <din> i've run into this a lot and have had to install the dev libs as well. i haven't checked to see if there is one for libpcap
[04:11] <warfaren> hm maybe you need to find where the .so file is and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to that directory?
[04:11] <din> Keyman009, try installing libpcap-dev and running it again.
[04:12] <Keyman009> There are a number of ways to get it working, and I can get it to work. I am just trying to understand where it is currently looking by default.
[04:12] <warfaren> ok
[04:12] <din> strace ./configure ? :)
[04:12] <Keyman009> I will give that a try and see what it tells me.
[04:17] <subcool> histo, hey you around?
[04:20] <t0rch> able ubuntu torrent. sry pc crashed so am repeating
[04:20] <t0rch> looking for Link to most recent long term support torrent ubuntu.
[04:21] <t0rch> !ubuntu
[04:21] <ntzrmtthihu777> t0rch: releases.ubuntu.com/precise
[04:22] <t0rch> link?
[04:22] <ntzrmtthihu777> t0rch: http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise
[04:22] <Tex_Nick> t0rch:  see if this helps ... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[04:23] <Tex_Nick> t0rch:  sorry thqat's not what you asked for ;(
[04:23] <dherly> hi
[04:23] <holstein> there are torrents at http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/
[04:24] <dherly> does anybody knows any oracle channel?
[04:24] <Keyman009> yea... strace isn't giving me anything that I can use.
[04:24] <din> Keyman009, hmm.
[04:25] <din> have you looked in the config script itself?
[04:25] <din> s/config/configure
[04:25] <holstein> dherly: you have tried /join #oracle i assume
[04:26] <histo> subcool: yeah
[04:26] <histo> subcool: just popped in
[04:26] <holstein> Keyman009: its a non-repo package, so if you can make it work, i would just make it work, and not worry about why its not seeing the deps
[04:26] <Keyman009> din, I have, but it's a hard read for me....
[04:26] <Keyman009> holstein, I am looking to learn more about linux.... not really get an application working.
[04:27] <din> give me the link where you got it from
[04:27] <din> i'll check it out.
[04:27] <t0rch> MSG self !valve
[04:27] <Keyman009> http://www.snort.org/downloads/2216
[04:27] <t0rch> MSG t0rch !valve
[04:28] <dherly> can't talk on #oracle
[04:28] <t0rch> !valve
[04:28] <t0rch> !steam
[04:28] <holstein> dherly: check the /topic, and register if you are not
[04:29] <histo> Keyman009: What application are you trying to install?
[04:29] <Keyman009> snort <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:29] <din> Keyman009, have you tried the "--with-libpcap-libraries=DIR" option?
[04:29] <Keyman009> it needs DAQ 2.0.0 as a prereq
[04:30] <mneptok> Keyman009: why not use the package?
[04:30] <histo> Keyman009: Any reason you can't use the version of snort int he repos?
[04:30] <subcool> histo, awesome- so- i got past that issue from yesterday, the grub stuff. Appears my grub is fine- whats going on is its stopping when coming to my /home folder i believe. and im not really sure how to google it.
[04:30] <histo> subcool: Did you encrypt your home folder during installation?
[04:30] <Keyman009> I was told it was better to compile from source rather than use a package.
[04:30] <mneptok> Keyman009: apparently not, eh?
[04:31] <mneptok> Keyman009: it's also a really bad idea to have compiler tools on a machine that needs intrusion detection
[04:31] <histo> Keyman009: You should only be compiling from source if there is a feature missing in the package from the repos. They've been tested and are known working with your current setup.
[04:31] <Keyman009> No... mneptok.. I can get this working... no problem. I just download the libpcap source and compile and install myself and I can get it going.
[04:32] <histo> Keyman009: Perhaps you should as the "snort" people on how to install their package then.
[04:32] <mneptok> Keyman009: then i guess you don't need help ;)
[04:32] <din> Keyman009, sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev bison flex
[04:32] <din> then configure worked for me.
[04:32] <Keyman009> histo, I understand your point, but this what was told to me by a previous sourfire employee and snort expert.
[04:32] <Keyman009> er that was sourcefire exployee
[04:32] <histo> Keyman009: then ask him for help. Or learn more about installing software
[04:33] <Keyman009> histo that is exatly what I am trying to do.
[04:33] <histo> Keyman009: bad advice is still bad advice it doesn't matter who is giving it to you.
[04:33] <mneptok> Keyman009: i'd use the packaged version. and i was the first person Canonical hired to support Ubuntu commercially. :P
[04:33] <wayne__> How can I back up my movies with linux ubuntu
[04:33] <Keyman009> Um... that's coming 2nd level down from the maker of snort.
[04:33] <mneptok> Keyman009: you're better off asking that person, then.
[04:34] <Keyman009> Marty Roesch is not exactly someone I can just call up :)
[04:34] <histo> wayne__: Where are they currently stored?
[04:35] <wayne__> dvd and blu ray disks
[04:35] <bean> Snort is not very easy to get working correctly.
[04:35] <bean> I've done it
[04:35] <bean> but not in quite some time
[04:35] <subcool> histo, no- but its on a lvm
[04:35] <Keyman009> I can want until I am in D.C. in June and ask Mike Poor.... but I was hoping to do this sooner than that.
[04:35] <histo> wayne__: put movie in drive... dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/storage/nameofmovie.iso
[04:35] <subcool> histo, during install i pointed it to it, maybe it doesnt recognize lvm yet? - i have no clue.
[04:35] <din> Keyman009, pm.
[04:36] <histo> subcool: Wasn't root on lvm also?
[04:36] <Keyman009> bean, again, I can get this software working.... I am not trying to get it to work. I am trying to understand why it doesn't work with the currelty installed libpcap the way it came from Ubuntu... thats all.
[04:36] <bean> Keyman009, that sounds like something you need to take up with the package maintainer
[04:36] <holstein> Keyman009: could be as simple as repackaging
[04:36] <mneptok> Keyman009: ask a Snort expert about libpcap version dependencies
[04:37] <Keyman009> mneptok, I am trying to find one :)
[04:37] <subcool> histo, yea-.. im trying to chroot into it now- but i forget how to do it..
[04:37] <subcool> my LVM is /dev/MyVG/Precise - thats root.
[04:37] <Dawn> I am a bonehead.  I just repartitioned with gparted and made a new partition.  Now I can't get to it.  I forgot how to change permissions in terminal so I can get to /dev/cdb without having to be root.  Help!!
[04:37] <mneptok> Keyman009: compiling from source is not something this channel encourages, especially when a packaged version exists
[04:37] <bean> um, /join #snort
[04:37] <bean> ?
[04:37] <subcool> histo my LVM is /dev/MyVG/Precise - thats root.
[04:37] <subcool> histo, so im trying mount ^^folder to /mnt ???
[04:37] <Keyman009> mneptok understable point of view
[04:38] <luck> hi
[04:38] <histo> subcool: you have to mount /dev/MyVG/Precise /mnt   then chroot /mnt  and have a look at your /etc/fstab
[04:38] <luck> i got this problem my friends
[04:38] <luck> mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[04:38] <luck> error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[04:38] <luck> Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
[04:38] <luck> what is that suppose to mean?
[04:38] <histo> luck: is the mysql server running and is it set to listen on localhost?
[04:39] <somsip> histo: now by default the bind-address is <IP_ADDRESS> (loclahost, I know)
[04:39] <luck> histo:  i have no idea
[04:39] <histo> luck: sudo status mysqld
[04:39] <luck> i am just doing an example from book" linux for dummy"
[04:39] <luck> oh ok
[04:39] <FATMedia> anyone have any idea why random files would be getting created in the root directory of an ubuntu server?
[04:39] <subcool> histo, i just tried that- it said mount: special device -directory- does not exist
[04:40] <FATMedia> or how to trace down why they're being created?
[04:40] <bean> FATMedia, like what
[04:40] <luck> histo:  status: Unknown job: mysqld
[04:40] <FATMedia> they have random names like ?/n;6Z???y???
[04:40] <Nanaharu> Hello, I'm trying to install NVIDIA drivers on 12.10 and it seems to be a lot more difficult than previous versions... I found a guid and I "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" but if I try and do any steps after that... the commands just don't work and ubuntu still doesn't recognize my card
[04:40] <histo> subcool: lsblk and make sure it's /dev/MyVG/Precise
[04:40] <t0rch> what is ubuntu 12.04 torrent link?
[04:40] <histo> luck: sudo status mysql
[04:40] <luck> histo:  i did type
[04:40] <histo> t0rch: it's a link to download via torrent
[04:41] <holstein> t0rch: http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ lists them
[04:41] <luck> histo: it reply Unknown job: mysqld
[04:41] <histo> luck: yeah I told you mysqld try mysql
[04:41] <subcool> histo, ah- thats the command i was looking for before
[04:41] <histo> luck: or use <tab> to autocomplete the name of the init job
[04:41] <subcool> histo, no- that doesnt give mem uch other than.. my sda's
[04:41] <luck> histo: same result Unknown job: mysql
[04:42] <histo> luck: sudo /etc/init.d/mys<tab> status
[04:42] <histo> luck: <tab> means hit the tab key
[04:42] <Nanaharu> Can anyone help me install NVIDIA drivers for ubuntu 12.10. I'm very new to terminal commands and the guids online are not helping very much.
[04:43] <histo> literally press the tab key
[04:43] <mneptok> luck: sudo invoke-rc.d mysql start
[04:43] <luck> histo: nothing come up
[04:43] <holstein> !nvidia | Nanaharu
[04:43] <histo> Nanaharu: which nvidia card?
[04:43] <histo> luck: did you install mysql server
[04:43] <FATMedia> bean: any clue? they're all owned by root, i can delete them but new ones are generated eventually
[04:43] <Nanaharu> histo : NVIDIA GTX 680
[04:44] <bean> FATMedia, can't say, i dont know why that'd happen
[04:44] <luck> i think i did histo
[04:44] <luck> histo:
[04:44] <histo> Nanaharu: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[04:44] <histo> luck: How?
[04:44] <luck> histo:  i typed sudo apt-get install mysqladmin
[04:44] <FATMedia> bean: its kind of disconcerning lol i haven't noticed any other problems aside from the files showing up...
[04:44] <dr_willis> the 680 seems to be a somewhat problematic card. i seem to see a lot of people mention 680 in here lately.
[04:45] <Nanaharu> histo : I did this. How do I get ubuntu to recognize my card? the sudo /sbin/lsmod grep nvidia command doesn't work or do anything
[04:45] <bean> FATMedia, if it was a file from a package, we'd be able to tell
[04:45] <mneptok> luck: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[04:45] <histo> !info mysqladmin
[04:45] <Dawn> I am a bonehead.  I just repartitioned with gparted and made a new partition.  Now I can't get to it.  I forgot how to change permissions in terminal so I can get to /dev/cdb without having to be root.  Help!!
[04:45] <histo> luck: What command were you trying when you received the error above?
[04:45] <luck> mneptok: histo i am doing now
[04:46] <FATMedia> bean: is there any way to figure out how they were created? the file names are insane, like one is `???p???`???p???`???pα?`????
[04:46] <histo> luck: yes you kind of need mysql-server to administer it....
[04:46] <luck> histo: sorry, i installed mysql-server-5.5
[04:46] <dr_willis> Dawn:  mount it. then use chown/chmod as needed on the mountpoint
[04:46] <luck> histo: just that one
[04:46] <mneptok> luck: sudo invoke-rc.d mysql start
[04:46] <luck> mneptok: i am downloding now
[04:46] <dr_willis> hmm. i  always  use  sudo  service servicename start
[04:46]  * Dawn huggs dr_willis
[04:47] <histo> Nanaharu: So does X fail to start?
[04:47] <mneptok> luck: downloading what?
[04:47] <luck> mneptok: the one you show me mysql-server
[04:47] <mneptok> luck: but you installed mysql-server-5.5
[04:47] <histo> luck: what were you trying when you received the error that brought you here in the first place?
[04:47] <Nanaharu> histo : the sudo apt-get install nvidia-current seems to work flawlessly, but ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize it at all...
[04:47] <mneptok> luck: now you're installing another package. you're going to have conflicts.
[04:48] <histo> Nanaharu: can you lscpi -k | pastebinit
[04:48] <luck> mneptok: that was before you told me
[04:48] <mneptok> luck: mysql-server is a metapackage for whatever the current version is.
[04:48] <histo> Nanaharu: sorry typo lspci -k | pastebinit
[04:48] <luck> histo: oh i am builting data base for a books which is an example from a book
[04:48] <TaMpeReN> anyone can tell me how to get connetfiy  on  ubuntu
[04:48] <luck> mneptok: i am done with downloading what to do next?
[04:49] <mneptok> luck: sudo apt-get purge mysql-server-5.5
[04:49] <dr_willis> TaMpeReN:  and whats connetfiy?
[04:49] <luck> mneptok: i got this error message
[04:49] <luck> mysqladmin: CREATE DATABASE failed; error: 'Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'books''
[04:50] <histo> ohboy
[04:50] <histo> luck: Did you create a mysql root password when installing mysql-server ?
[04:50] <luck> when i type mysqladmin create books
[04:50] <mneptok> luck: you need to login to the MySQL console as the MySQL root user
[04:50] <luck> histo: i did
[04:50] <TaMpeReN> dr_willis: it makes a hotspot , let me share internet to other devices
[04:50] <luck> mneptok: how??
[04:51] <dr_willis> TaMpeReN:  and thisis a linux app? a windows app? or what exactly?
[04:51] <luck> my books does not tell me about it
[04:51] <mneptok> luck: mysql -u root -p
[04:51] <histo> luck: aparently your book didn't tell you to install mysql-server either
[04:51] <dr_willis> TaMpeReN:  keep it in the channel.
[04:51] <dr_willis> !ics > TaMpeReN
[04:52] <mneptok> luck: you are also now asking for generic MySQL help, which is probably better suited to the #mysql channel.
[04:52] <luck> histo: yes
[04:52] <subcool> histo im here now
[04:53] <histo> subcool: any luck getting / mounted?
[04:53] <subcool> histo im on the laptop... - no... lsblk gave me nothing
[04:53] <luck> mneptok: got error ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[04:53] <Nanaharu> histo : I sent the pastebinit to a private msg
[04:53] <luck> mneptok:  no my friend it is just an example from "linux all in one desk Reference for Dummies 2006"
[04:54] <histo> subcool: what? Are you on a livecd on the broken machine?  Also I though you were just going to reinstall?
[04:54] <dr_willis> luck a 6 yr old tutorial -- may  have issues. ;)
[04:54] <luck> dr_willis: you are so right
[04:54] <mneptok> luck: your questions now are about usage of MySQL, not Ubuntu.
[04:54] <luck> mneptok:  Oops sorry
[04:54] <histo> Nanaharu: did you reboot after installing nvidia-current
[04:54] <subcool> histo: i did reinstall- im on a livusb, but its giving me issues, it wont install like anything, i cant install xchat, extras' or pastebinit
[04:54] <mneptok> luck: it's better to ask in a dedicated MySQL channel or forum
[04:54] <luck> mneptok: tell me where to go
[04:55]  * mneptok twitches ...
[04:55] <Nanaharu> histo : no... ha ha lemme do that~
[04:55] <mneptok> luck: #mysql
[04:55] <luck> thanks mneptok
[04:55] <histo> Nanaharu: Are you able to get to a graphical environment right now or are you stuck in cli?
[04:56] <histo> subcool: what sort of errors do youg et when you try and install something?
[04:57] <Nanaharu> histo : after the reboot my system seems to be kind of funky and not load. I don't get the docks or the taskbar at the top and it's not using my full screen
[04:57] <histo> luck: Keep in mind a lot has changed since 2006
[04:57] <luck> histo: okie
[04:57] <subcool> histo: Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package pastebinit
[04:57] <luck> i got another question my friends
[04:57] <histo> Nanaharu: ahh well it's still using the nouveau driver. You can try using the jocket-text tool to install additional drivers
[04:57] <histo> Nanaharu: I would purge nvidia-current first
[04:58] <dr_willis> TaMpeReN:  keep it in the channel...  i may have to leave at any time.
[04:58] <histo> Nanaharu: then try jocket-text see which driver it wants to install for your card.
[04:58] <luck> mneptok: I heard that I can connect to other linux computer under same wifi or other place
[04:58] <Nanaharu> How do I get to the terminal? And I've read that in 12.10 using Jockey will mess up the system?
[04:58] <luck> is that true?
[04:58] <histo> subcool: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[04:58] <histo> luck: what ssh?
[04:59] <dr_willis> Nanaharu: 12.10 dosent really have jocky any more. its been redone.. and it worked fine for me.
[04:59] <histo> dr_willis: jocket-text is stil lthere
[04:59] <subcool> http://paste.kde.org/690032 histo
[04:59] <histo> Nanaharu: ctrl+alt+F1 through F6 are tty's F7 is back to GUI
[04:59] <subcool> histo: its really screwy
[04:59] <luck> histo: o got cha
[04:59] <histo> subcool: sudo apt-get update
[04:59] <histo> subcool: then try and install
[05:00] <subcool> histo: done that-
[05:00] <subcool> i used unetboot to instlal this liveusb.. :/
[05:00] <histo> subcool: Can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:00] <histo> subcool: Wait I'm confused now. Which can you not install packages on? The USB or your computer?
[05:01] <subcool> histo: usb
[05:01] <Nanaharu> histo : when I press ctrl alt f1 my screen goes black and I can't type?
[05:01] <histo> Nanaharu: YOu should have a login prompt on the upper left of the screen?
[05:02] <Nanaharu> There is no prompt. Just a flashing underscore.
[05:02] <Dii_Pundiih> Hi. I have booted in to a two x screen setup and x starts alright but no desktop or panel loads... When i try to start with compiz --replace or lxpanel it says that: Cannot find display..? what would be sensible to do now?
[05:02] <histo> subcool: So you are booting to a USB which has ubuntu installed to it? And you want to install packages right?
[05:02] <histo> Nanaharu: try F2
[05:02] <subcool> histo: correct
[05:02] <subcool> histo: but- just so i can fix the laptop
[05:02] <histo> Nanaharu: if not ctrl+alt+t in GUI will open terminal
[05:03] <TaMpeReN> how to do !tab on pidgin?
[05:03] <histo> subcool: What version of ubuntu did you install to the usb?
[05:03] <Nanaharu> histo : now what's the command to purge nvidia current?
[05:03] <TaMpeReN> !tab test
[05:03] <histo> Nanaharu: sudo apt-get purge nivdia-current
[05:03] <dr_willis> TaMpeReN: ! commands are bot triggers. hit the tab key to autocomplete nicks in most clients
[05:03] <histo> TaMpeReN: ctrl+shift+t maybe? ask in #pidgin
[05:04] <subcool> histo: 12.04.1
[05:04] <ALeon_> Hello.
[05:04] <histo> !info pastebinit precise
[05:04] <histo> subcool: you need the universe repo enabled in sources.list
[05:04] <TaMpeReN> k i go #pidgin  ty
[05:04] <Nanaharu> histo : do I need to reboot after purging? and then how do I use the jocket method? is there a guid or is it a simple line of code ^.^?
[05:04] <histo> subcool: IS this a modern laptop?
[05:05] <subcool> histo: yes
[05:05] <mneptok> Nanaharu: do you *require* 3D?
[05:05] <subcool> histo: ok- ill open up software manager
[05:05] <histo> Nanaharu: no need to reboot. in the terminal type jockey-text     The GUI way in 12.10 is to go to system settings > software sources > hardware tab
[05:05] <histo> subcool: Does it use EFI?
[05:06] <subcool> histo: honestly- i dont know what that is
[05:06] <histo> subcool: Alright well lets fix one problem at a time. What is wrong with the laptop right now?
[05:06] <Nanaharu> mneptok : I plan on using 3D rendering software, do you mean that? or do you mean like 3D cinema type 3D?
[05:07] <subcool> histo: yae, that did it
[05:07] <mneptok> Nanaharu: i mean, "why not use the nouveau driver instead of the proprietary nVidia driver?"
[05:07] <histo> mneptok: performance in the nouveau driver is subpar for most peoople.
[05:08] <mneptok> histo: it seems on Nanaharu's machine, the proprietary driver is far more sub-par. ;)
[05:08] <Nanaharu> histo : so I just apt-get the jockey-common? and this works in 12.10 now?
[05:08] <histo> mneptok: true
[05:09] <histo> Nanaharu: No I told you... You can use jockey-text or "GUI" way go to System Settings > Software Sources > Hardware Tab
[05:09] <subcool> histo: during boot, it see the ubuntu gear, then it drops out to busybox.
[05:10] <histo> Nanaharu: system settings can be called via gnome-control-center
[05:10] <histo> subcool: any errors?
[05:10] <mneptok> subcool: can you test the USB stick on another machine?
[05:10] <Nanaharu> histo : I can't use the gui because after I rebooted, I only get a small screen with no dock or taskbar... so it seems like I'm stuck with terminal.
[05:11] <subcool> mneptok: sure- but ill lose my install, its appears not to be perisitant
[05:11] <subcool> histo: not that i can see- i can pastbein dmesg ?
[05:11] <luck> histo: I don't know what to read for SSH ; please give me some advise
[05:12] <mneptok> subcool: if you can't boot, what does persistence matter?
[05:13] <histo> subcool: paste the /var/log/syslog from the laptop's /
[05:13] <Nanaharu> histo : so I was able to make it to the software sources. I went to additional drivers but it says that no proprietary drivers are in use.
[05:13] <subcool> histo: haha- uh... i still have to mount the root
[05:13] <histo> subcool: and /var/log/boot.log maybe of some use.
[05:14] <coolroot> i can't access my usb stick it says it has to be root to access how can i do that?
[05:14] <histo> subcool: yeah running dmesg on the usb will just output the syslog of the usb instance
[05:14] <histo> !sudo | coolroot
[05:14] <subcool> histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5595121/
[05:14] <mneptok> subcool: test the stick on another machine. you've already lost any customizations when you rebooted/shut down.
[05:14] <histo> Nanaharu: right none are in use now. You want to activate one.
[05:15] <subcool> mneptok: at that rate- ill just make a new livusb with persistant
[05:15] <histo> subcool: is that from the USB?
[05:15] <Nanaharu> histo : how do I activate one? there are no options.
[05:15] <subcool> histo: mneptok ill do that now anyways
[05:15] <subcool> histo: i suppose..
[05:15] <subcool> histo: i havent mounted the laptops root yet
[05:15] <histo> subcool: You are confusing the hell out of me right now. Pick one install that you want to fix. Either the one installed on the laptop drive or the usb.
[05:16] <subcool> histo: laptop- thats what i care about
[05:16] <histo> subcool: Yeah that log is completely useless then for fixing the "laptop"
[05:16] <histo> subcool: you need to mount the laptop's root partition.
[05:16] <subcool> histo: i posted what ihad access too
[05:16] <subcool> histo: ya- it errored . remember? ill do it again and show you
[05:16] <histo> subcool: paste output of lsblk   if that doesn't work paste out put of sudo fdisk -l
[05:16] <histo> Nanaharu: does it list any drivers? You click one and click enable
[05:17] <Nanaharu> histo : there are no drivers listed.

[05:19] <subcool> histo: harddrive
[05:19] <histo> Nanaharu: do you have one of those hybrid graphics cards?
[05:20] <subcool> histo: and i reformated my usb, which im about to do again -
[05:20] <histo> subcool: did you use lvm again this time?
[05:20] <Nanaharu> histo : so I got jockey, I should be able to just activate all the drivers now? I have a NVIDIA GTX 680 FTW I don't think it's a hybrid
[05:20] <subcool> histo: because if i have to reboot, i lose everything.
[05:20] <TaMpeReN> anyone can tell me how i can make my laptop into a wifi hotspot
[05:20] <subcool> histo: yea.. had to- my home directory is on lvm
[05:20] <TaMpeReN> i followed the steps but ther intenet is not being shared
[05:21] <histo> subcool: you don't have to use lvm. but anyways  sudo apt-get install lvm2 && modprobe dm-mod
[05:21] <histo> TaMpeReN: which steps?
[05:21] <luck> exit
[05:22] <qwertyomen> TaMpeReN: gotta bridge the ethernet port and wireless
[05:23] <TaMpeReN> histo: http://23ars.blogspot.ro/2013/03/create-wifi-hotspot-on-ubuntu-12041210.html
[05:23] <histo> Nanaharu: I'm affraid you may have to use the drivers from http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us  here are some directions http://askubuntu.com/questions/247448/nvidia-gtx-680-drivers
[05:23] <subcool> histo: update-initramfs is disabled since running on read-only media
[05:23] <histo> !ics | TaMpeReN
[05:23] <histo> subcool: How are you creating these usb installs btw?
[05:24] <TaMpeReN> histo:  i did this too http://23ars.blogspot.ro/2013/03/create-wifi-hotspot-on-ubuntu-12041210.html
[05:24] <TaMpeReN> histo:  i mean https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing
[05:24] <TaMpeReN> histo:  it set up the connection but the internet is not behind shared
[05:24] <histo> TaMpeReN: did you make sure that the forwarding is set to on?
[05:25] <histo> TaMpeReN: sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" this step is very important
[05:25] <TaMpeReN> histo:  GUI Method via Network Manager (Ubuntu 12.04) i  followed this only
[05:25] <subcool> histo: this last one was wtih unetboot
[05:25] <subcool> histo: i had used yumi - but it crapped out
[05:25] <subcool> histo: for simplicity, im going to create a new one- ill brb..
[05:25] <histo> subcool: Okay when you areinstalling why are you creating all these jacked up partitions? rather than just letting the installer partition your drive?
[05:26] <histo> subcool: The thumb drive is not the issue
[05:26] <Nanaharu> How do you run a program under roots permission?
[05:26] <histo> Nanaharu: sudo programname
[05:26] <subcool> histo: because it has my home directoy on it- and its too large to move
[05:26] <Nanaharu> histo : oh okay lol that was easy~ Thanks
[05:26] <histo> subcool: Do you have a bunch of files saved there?
[05:26] <subcool> histo: your right- but when i reboot to chcek if it is ok- ill lose all of what i just installed to check on the drive..
[05:26] <subcool> histo: YES
[05:26] <subcool> histo: its a couple years old at this point- its rather imporrant
[05:27] <histo> subcool: Okay so then why do you have 4 partitions in addition to your /home
[05:27] <subcool> subcool: i use to have a 500gb backup- but my x' stole it- so im working with what i got
[05:27] <subcool> histo: i was working with TJ- and he crated a root, var, tmp - then home
[05:27] <subcool> histo: i had the history, but that usb crapped out.
[05:28] <histo> subcool: and this is just a desktop machine? Your not using the laptop as a server right.
[05:28] <subcool> histo: this is a mobile laptop, i use it for a lot of things..
[05:28] <subcool> histo: my desktop server is- hurting....
[05:28] <histo> subcool: perhaps someone more familiar with LVM can help. I dont' know why "TJ" had you create all those seperate partitions on a desktop install.
[05:29] <subcool> histo: ive been looking for help with lvm.. but no one is about- and if i recall TJ was always in this group-
[05:29] <histo> subcool: I suspect the issue is from / not getting mounted properly on boot
[05:29] <subcool> histo: my laptop when working has a full list of irc i work with-
[05:29] <subcool> histo: well, it boots fine-
[05:29] <histo> What boots fine?
[05:29] <subcool> the laptop-
[05:30] <histo> Then wth
[05:30] <histo> So what is the issue then?
[05:30] <subcool> but when it get to .. login- it bails to busybox
[05:30] <RiXtEr> subcool, so your X isn't stating?
[05:30] <RiXtEr> *starting
[05:30] <histo> subcool: So then it isn't booting fine.
[05:30] <subcool> RiXtEr: basically? hard to say..
[05:31] <subcool> histo: well after attacking the grub- i say it boots
[05:31] <RiXtEr> subcool, at a $ try startx
[05:31] <histo> subcool: I though you were able to click ont he partitions in nautilus on and mount the drives earlier rigth?
[05:31] <RiXtEr> he's gone.
[05:31] <subcool_> histo, i can mount them via a file manager, yes. But Chroot is getting me
[05:31] <geomyidae> wtf? dkms DEPENDS on apport?
[05:32] <Nanaharu> histo : I'm trying to sudo NVIDIA-linux-x86_64-310.32.run but it says it doesn't exist. I downloaded the installer but I'm lost now on how to run it and turn of my desktop like the instructions say.
[05:32] <geomyidae> Nanaharu: sudo ./NVIDIA...
[05:32] <subcool> i just moved ...
[05:32] <geomyidae> Nanaharu: also, you're better off installing those drivers through the repositrories.
[05:32] <histo> subcool_: okay well after they are mounted via file manager. you can opena  terminal type in mount   it will show you where they are mounted. Then you can sudo chroot /path/to/what/mount/said
[05:32] <subcool> histo, im fixing that usb..
[05:32] <histo> subcool: use <tab> for autocompletion
[05:32] <Nanaharu> geomyidea : ummm repositories?
[05:32] <histo> subcool: there is nothing wrong with that USB
[05:33] <histo> subcool: When did all these problems start by the way?
[05:33] <coyotee> hey
[05:33] <subcool> histo, sunday- i came home from a trip, and my networking went to hell. so after you helped me with that and a couple other peope. and nothign worked. i just reinstalled it
[05:33] <subcool> histo, now i have this issue.
[05:34] <subcool> histo, its been a week of linux trouble.
[05:34] <subcool> give me a couple - iim making a new lisb usn
[05:34] <subcool> liveusb
[05:34] <histo> subcool: When you reinstall it. How are you telling the partitioner about your partitions?
[05:35] <histo> subcool: That is the entire problem ^^^
[05:35] <subcool> i manually goto each parition click change and direct them to the partition.
[05:35] <histo> subcool: I would try just using / and /home  make sure you tell it not to format /home
[05:35] <subcool> histo, that shoulda have done it- it boots, but.. my guess is home. but imjust guess.
[05:36] <subcool> histo, right- thats what i;ve been doing about home.
[05:36] <histo> subcool: To ease in the troubleshooting. atleast. Then you can eliminate /var /tmp etc...
[05:36] <histo> subcool: /home should be the only one you tell it not to format
[05:36] <subcool> histo, give me like 10 mins.. ill brb....
[05:36] <histo> subcool: K
[05:36] <subcool> histo, thats what i've been doing.
[05:37] <histo> subcool: does it pick up that it's lvm or do you have the option to tell it that?
[05:38] <histo> subcool: the 12.10 installation cd has support for lvm built in
[05:38] <subcool> histo, ofcourse it would- um i boot into the liveusb, and install the lvm - then click install to HDD
[05:38] <histo> subcool: yeah but the install doesn't know it's being installed to an LVM drive
[05:39] <subcool> histo, it seems them.
[05:39] <subcool> histo, label and all
[05:39] <histo> subcool: you still would have to install lvm to the chroot prior to rebooting
[05:39] <Nanaharu> I'm still having a lot of trouble trying to run the install. geomyidae mentioned something about repositories? can I install my gtx 680 ftw from a repository?
[05:39] <subcool> histo, hold on- brb
[05:39] <histo> subcool: Are you able to run 12.10?
[05:40] <histo> subcool: would be much easier for you.
[05:40] <ashwin> How can i change my home folder to a hard disk drive?
[05:40] <subcool> histo, i could dl it- :/ but i want to be on LTS-
[05:40] <subcool> for giggles- ill do it now
[05:40] <subcool> hold on
[05:40] <dr_willis> ashwin: copy your home to the hd. edit fstab to mount it to /home
[05:40] <subcool> ill be back in like 15. i have to dl it
[05:41] <dr_willis> !movehome
[05:41] <histo> !seperatehome | ashwin
[05:41] <histo> !separatehome | ashwin
[05:43] <rgap> hi
[05:43] <rgap> help
[05:44] <Onixs> how to modify a read-only ISO without extracting and keep its bootability
[05:44] <histo> !ask | rgap
[05:44] <histo> Onixs: you can't.
[05:44] <histo> Onixs: you have to mount it to edit it. And then put it back in iso form.
[05:45] <dr_willis> dident kiso at one time sort of automate that process?
[05:45] <rgap> i have ubuntu 12.04 32 bit and need to hibernate
[05:46] <Onixs> ok. cant edit after mounting since its a read*only
[05:46] <rgap> sudo pm-hibernate    doesnt work
[05:46] <rgap> histo: ping
[05:46] <dr_willis> !info kiso
[05:46] <histo> Onixs: copy the files from it
[05:47] <histo> Onixs: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=52598
[05:47] <rgap> ping?
[05:47] <Onixs> reading..   thanks histo
[05:48] <histo> Onixs: isomaster is aparently another tool
[05:49] <Nanaharu> I don't understand why my sudo command to run my .run file won't work? I've tried it with the full sudo ./home/username/desktop/filename.run but it says the directory doesn't exist
[05:49] <Onixs> even the ISO is read-only?
[05:49] <histo> Nanaharu: sudo sh /path/to/filename.run
[05:49] <jeem>  /msg nickserv identify digit
[05:49] <jeem> nice
[05:49] <jeem> fuck
[05:49] <Onixs> Lolz
[05:49] <histo> Onixs: Which iso are you trying to edit
[05:49] <histo> lol that should be on bash.org
[05:50] <dr_willis> they extract the files and rebuild the iso i imagine Onixs
[05:50] <Nanaharu> histo : i tried the sh, it says that it can't open T.T I don't understand why it's so hard to install this driver
[05:51] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  chmod +x the. run first? be sure yiur cASe of words is right...
[05:51] <jeem> anyway, i am trying to setup a vpn, i am in bt5r3 , i don't know if i can get support for that here?
[05:51] <dr_willis> and its NOT sudo ./home/whatever   it would be sudo /home/whatever
[05:52] <dr_willis> jeem:  bt has its own support channels
[05:52] <Nanaharu> dr_willis : would the code just be chmod +x path/to/filename.run?
[05:52] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  the first use of / and . and so forth are VERY imporntant
[05:53] <dr_willis>   path/to/file would be under your current directory..  /peth/to/file is a Full absoute path
[05:53] <dr_willis>      /home/yourusername/Download/wwhatever.run
[05:53] <rgap> histo: i have ubuntu 12.04 32 bit and need to hibernate please
[05:53] <ntzrmtthihu777> Onixs: there is a remastering guide on the wiki
[05:54] <rgap> histo: sudo pm-hibernate    doesnt work
[05:54] <Onixs> histo some home made for NAS
[05:54] <Nanaharu> dr_willis : so this is my full command; chmod +x /home/username/desktop/filename.run.
[05:54] <Nanaharu> dr_willis : the +x doesn't stand for anything does it?
[05:54] <histo> Nanaharu: What is the command you are typing in?
[05:54] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  CASE of the letters is also critical.. Linux IS case senesetive
[05:55] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  +x is Critical also.. thats what you  are telling the mode to change to..  making it eXecutable
[05:55] <rgap> ..
[05:55] <dr_willis> so yes +x stands for somthing. ;) the executable bit/flag
[05:55] <Nanaharu> dr_willis : I downloaded the nvidia driver since it seems to be the only way to use my graphics card. so I'm trying to run the installer under root permission.
[05:56] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  if they are in your /home/Username/Downloads directory you can do.....
[05:56] <dr_willis> cd ~/Downloads
[05:56] <histo> Onixs: Here's an easy way if you don't want to do it the normal way http://askubuntu.com/questions/46646/how-to-edit-iso-images-including-bootable-isos#46647
[05:56] <dr_willis> ls   (to see the files, you  should see that whatever.run)
[05:56] <dr_willis> chmod +x whatever.run
[05:56] <dr_willis> sudo ./whatever.run
[05:57] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  you  most likely  will need to not  be in the X desktop/GUI to install the .run file..  'sudo service lightdm stop' will close out X. and get you  to  the  consoel. where you  need to login, and do the commands
[05:57] <dr_willis>  the .run drivers are not guarentted to work.
[05:58] <histo> Nanaharu: you can use the tab key to autocomplete names int eh terminal also like chmod +x Nvidia<tab>
[05:58] <dr_willis> i thought the xswat ppa had newer nvidia drivers also. but  i  never use  that ppa
[05:58] <Nanaharu> dr_willis : the guide I was trying to follow said I shout turn of my desktop
[05:58] <histo> Nanaharu: everything is case sensitive
[05:58] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  thats what 'sudo service lightdm stop' does.. closes X totally
[05:58] <dr_willis> instsall drivers.. then reboot via 'sudo reboot'
[05:58] <dr_willis> and hope  it works
[05:59] <histo> dr_willis: atleast you can sudo ./Nvidia_garbage.run --uninstall
[05:59] <evilytwisted> Hi all.. do any of you know how to install zentyal 3.0.1 from a usb thumbdisk and getting past the "I cant find the cd rom grrr...  blah blah blah.. "  and hi dr_willis  :D
[05:59] <histo> !offline | evilytwisted
[05:59] <dr_willis> evilytwisted:  make sure the cd is not in your sources listing.
[06:00] <evilytwisted> how do i do that?
[06:00] <dr_willis> evilytwisted:  what do you mean by install from a usb thimbdisk also? you  got the .deb on a flash drive? and no networking?
[06:00] <Nanaharu> dr_willis : okay now that it closed my x desktop how do I type commands here? the same way as the terminal?
[06:00] <histo> zentyal with no networking seems completely pointles
[06:00] <histo> Nanaharu: yeap
[06:00] <evilytwisted> no... i used unetbootin to "burn" an iso to a thumbdisk
[06:00] <dr_willis> Nanaharu:  yes.. it IS a terminal
[06:00] <histo> !zentyal | evilytwisted
[06:01] <evilytwisted> Yeah im aware of that..
[06:01] <dr_willis> evilytwisted:  so  how does  that relate to installing zentyal?  you are installing it on a live-usb setup?
[06:01] <histo> evilytwisted: okay then you edit your software sources enable whatever repo zentyal is in and sudo apt-get install zentyal
[06:01] <evilytwisted> live usb setup Im not for sure.. i just dl the file from the websiute
[06:01] <evilytwisted> mount it..
[06:01] <histo> !info zentyal
[06:02] <evilytwisted> IM not running zentyal from ubuntu.. or anything
[06:02] <dr_willis> evilytwisted:  you are confuseing things...   dl'd what file?
[06:02] <histo> !info ebox
[06:02] <evilytwisted> Its a stand alone package
[06:02] <histo> evilytwisted: then dpkg -i packagename.deb
[06:02] <histo> evilytwisted: or double click on the deb
[06:02] <evilytwisted> http://www.zentyal.org/
[06:02] <evilytwisted> its not a deb file..
[06:02] <dr_willis> what exacctly did you  download...
[06:02] <evilytwisted> http://www.zentyal.org/downloads/
[06:02] <evilytwisted> its a iso file
[06:03] <evilytwisted> WHich i used unetbootin or something like that.. to burn it to a usb thumbdrive..
[06:03] <histo> evilytwisted: read this page please http://trac.zentyal.org/wiki/Documentation/Community/Installation/InstallationGuide
[06:03] <histo> evilytwisted: it tells you how to add the zentyal repo and install it
[06:04] <ntzrmtthihu777> histo: what exactly is zentyal?
[06:04] <evilytwisted> histo IM not asking to install repos.. Nor packages.. Im using a spare box .. thats completly empty
[06:04] <histo> ntzrmtthihu777: web based admin of a machine.
[06:04] <evilytwisted> has no os.. No nothing on it atm
[06:04] <dr_willis> theres no need to use the iso.. use the packages..
[06:04] <dr_willis> you  dont need to install it 'from scratch'
[06:04] <histo> evilytwisted: Okay well you can't install zentyal to potato
[06:05] <evilytwisted> then whats with the iso image
[06:05] <evilytwisted> it said i can put it on a usb drive..
[06:05] <dr_willis> its for 'from scratch' installs...
[06:05] <evilytwisted> or cd
[06:05] <dr_willis> so i imagine its source code
[06:05] <dr_willis> look at whats in the iso file and see.. if  you want
[06:06] <histo> dr_willis: yeah there is a bootable iso on their page
[06:06] <dr_willis> their use of the term 'from scratch' is very vague. ;)
[06:06] <evilytwisted> what im asking, Is i got it booted from an iso image on a thumbdisk
[06:06] <histo> evilytwisted: use unetbootin to create a thumb drive
[06:06] <evilytwisted> again Histo if you would please read... i already said that
[06:06] <histo> evilytwisted: How is that a question.
[06:06] <evilytwisted> plenty of times..
[06:07] <evilytwisted> its persistant to find a cd rom drive...
[06:07] <evilytwisted> I have it using a thumbdisk..
[06:07] <evilytwisted> How do i get it to understant IM not using a cd rom drive. BUt instead a thumbdisk
[06:07] <Apoptosis> Hey.  I have Ubuntu 12.04 and a broken windows 7.  I want to reinstall Win7.  Can I the reformat the  Win7 partition via disk utility and reinstall?  Will there be any conflicts with my ubuntu?
[06:07] <histo> evilytwisted: Because it has cdrom entries in /etc/apt/sources.list you really should be asking in some zentyal support as this has nothing to do with ubuntu
[06:07] <dr_willis> evilytwisted:  so you have ubuntu allready installed? or no os at all?
[06:07] <cfhowlett> Apoptosis, best to use win7 tools for win7 OS
[06:08] <histo> dr_willis: He's using zentyal's distro
[06:08] <evilytwisted> i have nothing on the box that i want to install zentyal on
[06:08] <histo> evilytwisted: you need to comment out the cdrom entries in /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:08] <dr_willis> evilytwisted:  that usb will basically install 'zentyals' own os then.. not ubuntu from what im seeing.. not  ubuntu
[06:08] <cfhowlett> Apoptosis, upon reinstalling win7, you'll write over grub and ubuntu will be gone.  reinstall grub to get it back
[06:08] <histo> !derivatives | evilytwisted
[06:08] <evilytwisted> Its not a derivative.. what i heard its prety much a ubuntu 12.0.4 server
[06:09] <evilytwisted> but ty histo
[06:09] <dr_willis> if you  want 12.04 server.. then install 12.04 server. and use the zenytal packages in the repos/ppa
[06:09] <Apoptosis> cfhowlett: are you familiar with any win7 reinstall tools in particular
[06:09] <histo> evilytwisted: Okay then edit your sources.list
[06:10] <cfhowlett> Apoptosis, you have the win7 cdrom/usb, right?  all tools are there
[06:10] <histo> Apoptosis: did you install win7 after ubuntu?
[06:10] <Apoptosis> cfhowlett: yes I was going to use that after wiping the partition
[06:10] <Apoptosis> histo: my bunk win7 was on there first
[06:11] <cfhowlett> Apoptosis, or use win7 to format the partition.  either way works
[06:11] <histo> Apoptosis: just keep in mind you have to reinstall grub after installing winblows
[06:12] <Apoptosis> histo: what's the best way to do that if I can't get into ubuntu?  Not sure what to expect
[06:12] <ntzrmtthihu777> Apoptosis: live cd ubuntu plus boot repair
[06:12] <lb27> I found out I could just use my efi thing to choose where to boot, I can live with that.
[06:13] <evilytwisted> and see dr_willis  the thing im trying to install is ubuntu.. efine DISKNAME  Ubuntu-Server 12.04.1 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386
[06:14] <evilytwisted> for whatever reason though it goes by a diffrent name..
[06:14] <cfhowlett> evilytwisted, fwiw, present point release is 12.04.2
[06:14] <evilytwisted> fwiw?
[06:15] <cfhowlett> for what it's worth
[06:15] <evilytwisted> ok ty
[06:15] <cfhowlett> evilytwisted, you're install 32 bit not 64 bit server?
[06:15] <evilytwisted> the spare box is a really old dell pc from a middleschool comp lab
[06:15] <evilytwisted> pent 4 processer.. and such
[06:16] <evilytwisted> it can only hold 32 bit..

[06:23] <sternocera> Hello. I'm used to having the ability to see history when I press page up within my terminal emulator. Ubuntu apparently lacks that ability, or at the very least does not have it enabled by default. Can someone suggest a remedy?
[06:23] <cfhowlett> counting, how nice.  nothing to do with ubuntu however.
[06:23] <histo> counting: /j ##hackers
[06:23] <counting> Im excited about ps4
[06:23] <SunStar> sternocera, the up arrow
[06:23] <ntzrmtthihu777> sternocera: it has one, I use it all the time. what term are you using
[06:23] <cfhowlett> counting, also offtopic.  perhaps you want to try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:24] <counting> I like cnet
[06:24] <kalenjohnson> cfhowlett, well, linux, unix... there's a slight connection ;)
[06:24] <histo> sternocera: shift+pgup
[06:24] <counting> Lol
[06:24] <sternocera> SunStar: Sorry, what I mean is completion of a partially finished command based on history
[06:24] <ntzrmtthihu777> sternocera: pres tab
[06:24] <SunStar> thats not it either
[06:24] <counting> I've Hacked into email password ?
[06:24] <histo> counting: please /join #ubuntu-offtopic or /join ##hackers
[06:25] <sternocera> ntzrmtthihu777, No, that's tab completion.
[06:25] <ntzrmtthihu777> histo: is there anything good in ##hackers
[06:25] <counting> Closer?
[06:25] <ntzrmtthihu777> sternocera: sorry, sounded like you what you wanted
[06:25] <SunStar> thats a cool feature. never heard of it befor
[06:25] <sternocera> I want to type the first 3 letters of a frequently executed command, press page up, and get the rest from the last time I executed said command.
[06:26] <histo> sternocera: ctrl+r  then type the first few letters
[06:26] <ntzrmtthihu777> SunStar: its frikken awesome. you can do it in irc for nicks too. try typing ntz and then tab
[06:26] <ntzrmtthihu777> histo: you for real? that sounds like a nifty tool
[06:26] <histo> sternocera: hit ctrl+r if you want to go back further
[06:27] <histo> By go back further I mean previous instances
[06:27] <histo> ntzrmtthihu777: yes
[06:27] <SunStar> not tab completion >_< history based completion
[06:27] <sternocera> histo, that works, but isn't what I'm used to. I wonder why.
[06:27] <histo> sternocera: probably used to a different shell
[06:27] <ntzrmtthihu777> SunStar: dangit, thats twice I made that mistake
[06:27] <histo> !shell | sternocera
[06:27] <sternocera> histo, nope, I'm used to bash on Fedora.
[06:28] <histo> sternocera: okay well then they have some other completion app installed to do that. I'm not familiar with one that wouldn't interfere with tabcompletion
[06:29] <jirido> Hi.
[06:29] <jacob_> Hi i need help
[06:29] <ntzrmtthihu777> !ask | jacob_
[06:30] <litropy> I'm trying to get hardware temperature info from CLI. lm-sensors can't find any modules to load, and nv-clock says, "Error: temperature monitoring isn't supported on your videocard." Ideas?
[06:30] <jacob_> Sorry, My question is how do i remove the skype wrapper repository and uninstall it?
[06:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: you added a ppa for skype?
[06:31] <jacob_> Yes
[06:31] <litropy> Any temp reading will do - HD, CPU, etc.
[06:31] <ntzrmtthihu777> litropy: just try sensors
[06:31] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: do you know the name of the ppa
[06:31] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: and the package name
[06:32] <jacob_> Shouldn't it be Skype_wrapper_ppa? I am not sure what exactly it is
[06:32] <ntzrmtthihu777> its whatever you added, how did you add the ppa?
[06:33] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: better yet, do you know how to use pastbin?
[06:33] <akamikeym> jacob_, if you've got synaptic installed just open it and check under repositories in settings
[06:33] <ntzrmtthihu777> akamikeym: derp, yeah that
[06:34] <akamikeym> jacob_, but first open sources on the left hand side and select the skype repo and make sure to remove any installed packages
[06:34] <jacob_> Not sure never heard of the pastbin, I can install the synaptic
[06:34] <akamikeym> Assuming that's what yuo want to do
[06:34] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: pastebin is a website that lets you post documents for quick reference to others.
[06:35] <l057c0d3r> jacob_, pastbin is a nice feature to have sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[06:35] <jirido> ok. I tried to set nvida drivers to seperat x windows but then compiz, my windowmanager or ususal desktop enviroment did not work so i tried to logg in to openbox.. Then everything got so terible small.. so i erased the xorg.config but now when im back to normal all text still is so terible small. I managed to get it bigger in menu and tabbs but it is still so verry small in terminal and window manager that i think there must be some
[06:35] <jirido> over all setting someware.. is it so?
[06:35] <l057c0d3r> so then you can run something like oh sudo apt-get update | pastebinit
[06:35] <l057c0d3r> and it will give you a url with the output that was given from that command so people like us on here can help you better
[06:35] <akamikeym> jacob_, sorry not sources on left hand side, *origin* on left hand side
[06:35] <jacob_> Oh yeah ok and i will get it now
[06:35] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: you mean I can pastebin from the terminal? I'm hooked
[06:36] <l057c0d3r> wait.. ntzrmtthihu777 your kidding right.. i thought you new that
[06:36] <cfhowlett> !pastebin>cfhowlett
[06:36] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: I'm just a 1 year user man
[06:36] <l057c0d3r> oh.. thought i seen you in here helping others yesterday
[06:37] <ntzrmtthihu777> Yeah, that was me :D but I am by no means an expert
[06:37] <geomyidae> Can y'all think of any reason that lxappearance would look different ( a few diff icons ) on two computers when I have the *same* icon theme chosen on each?
[06:37] <leptone> anyone know of a good article for installing sun jdk 6/7 on 12.04?
[06:37] <ntzrmtthihu777> leptone: yup, I know the exact one
[06:37] <cfhowlett> !java|leptone,
[06:38] <ntzrmtthihu777> leptone: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[06:39] <jacob_> Ok i am in synaptic and in origin
[06:39] <leptone> ntzrmtthihu777, great thx. does th is install6 as well?
[06:40] <ntzrmtthihu777> yeah, 6 7 or 8, as you please
[06:41] <l057c0d3r> ntzrmtthihu777, you ever try the netflix desktop ppa yet?
[06:41] <jacob_> Akamikeym I am not sure what i am to do next in here
[06:41] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: not a member of netflix, don't use it.
[06:41] <l057c0d3r> ah i see
[06:41] <l057c0d3r> was amazed with how well it actually works
[06:41] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: dey makin dis hard. do you remember how you installed the wrapper?
[06:41] <developemt> woooo
[06:41] <akamikeym> jacob_, once you've got synaptic installed and you've found your skype ppa under *origin* and removed the installed packages, you can go into Settings>Repositories and Other Software tab and untick the skype ppa to temporarily disable it or select it and select remove to completely remove it
[06:42] <l057c0d3r> and pithos..  ahh a free pandora desktop app with add free listening.. now thats what im talking about
[06:42] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: I usually prefer local media as my internet access comes and goes in spurts
[06:42] <l057c0d3r> akamikeym..  missed out on half his problem.. could ppa-purge help better maybe
[06:43] <l057c0d3r> undo everything that was added / upgraded by the ppa.. uncheck it auto ext...
[06:43] <jacob_> Yeah i do its sudo add-apt-repository ppa:skype-wrapper/ppa
[06:44] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: ok, do ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[06:44] <l057c0d3r> :-( i feel you all are doing it the hard way
 I guess so.
[06:44] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: ok, but do you remember how you installed it?
[06:44] <akamikeym> But he doesn't know it's name
[06:45] <akamikeym> He can just look at all the ppa's in synaptic till he sees the package for skype
[06:45] <l057c0d3r> yeah.. open synaptic.. go into settings - repositorys
[06:45] <ntzrmtthihu777> and maybe uninstall skype itself by mistake?
[06:45] <l057c0d3r> look for the ppa.. find it.. write it down
[06:46] <l057c0d3r> sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
[06:46] <l057c0d3r> sudo ppa-purge "ppa link"
[06:46] <jacob_> Yeah in the termanil they it was that sudo add-apt, then sudo apt-get update then it was sudo apt-get install skype-wrapper
[06:46] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: sudo apt-get purge skype-wrapper
[06:47] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: akamikeym: dude is trying to get rid of something, seems excessive to add on in order to remove
[06:47] <jacob_> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[06:47] <jacob_> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? This is what came up
[06:47] <l057c0d3r> right.. but ppa purge is a great tool to have on hand
[06:47] <l057c0d3r> might come in handy in the future as well
[06:47] <geomyidae> Unless installing the skype wrapper broke things, there is no reason to purge the PPA.
[06:47] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: close synaptic, try again
[06:47] <l057c0d3r> jacob_, its because you have synaptic opens till
[06:47] <geomyidae> In fact, why bother removing it? Purging isn't even necessary
[06:48] <jacob_> Yeah i for got that was going ok thats done
[06:48] <akamikeym> geomyidae, good housekeeping?
[06:48] <dubbypca> my 12.04 recently chrashs in kernelpanic.  if someone could point out the problem by viewing the crahs screen, here are 2 pictures of my screen: http://carmohn.de/IMG-20130307-00551.jpg http://carmohn.de/IMG-20130307-00552.jpg
[06:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: ok, ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[06:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: then use sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/name_of_ppa here, based on what you see in ls
[06:50] <l057c0d3r> dubbypca, have you reciently upgraded to a newer version of the kernel
[06:50] <jacob_> OK i did that after i pressed enter it says  ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list
[06:51] <dubbypca> l057c0d3r: i did
[06:51] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list
[06:51] <l057c0d3r> and crashes started right after that right
[06:51] <l057c0d3r> i would try booting into an older kernel if you can and see if it works
[06:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: should give him that option at the grub menu unless he removed the old kernals
[06:52] <jacob_> No such file or directory
[06:52] <l057c0d3r> depending on your system the new kernel may not be compatible with your system...
[06:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: use tab-completion to get the right name
[06:53] <dubbypca> it crashs garuanteed when i play videos, render 3D (on cpu)
[06:53] <l057c0d3r> oh but it boots..
[06:53] <l057c0d3r> just crashes on videos 3d rendering ext
[06:53] <dubbypca> not only, but .... quicker
[06:53] <jacob_> What? tab-completion? i don't know what that is
[06:54] <dubbypca> chrashes are happening since i moved from 11 to 12
[06:54] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: when typing a command in terminal or a file name you can hit tab andit will fill out the rest for you depending on available options.
[06:54] <ntzrmtthihu777> so for example: sudo apt-g<tab> i<tab> will yield sudo apt-get install
[06:54] <l057c0d3r> jacob_, do you have a binary driver installed for your video card ?
[06:55] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: wrong person, lol
[06:55] <l057c0d3r> bah sorry
[06:55] <l057c0d3r> dubbypca,
[06:55] <l057c0d3r> its been a long day
[06:55] <jacob_> Through the additional driver?
[06:55] <l057c0d3r> sorry jacob_ was ment for dubbypca
[06:56] <jacob_> and its not working ntzrmtthihu777
[06:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: wrong person, focus :P
[06:56] <l057c0d3r> sigh i need to focus mysel
[06:56] <l057c0d3r> f
[06:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list
[06:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> exactly like that
[06:57] <l057c0d3r> bay sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-w*
[06:57] <l057c0d3r> bay sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-w*.*
[06:57] <jacob_> Lol ok and also I don't have any clue why i am having troubles, with this but yeah the tab-completion is not working
[06:58] <dr_willis> perhaps just look in the direcgtory to see what files are there,  ;)
[06:58] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: I don't see why it would not, type sudo rm /e<tab> and see if it makes etc
[06:58] <ntzrmtthihu777> dr_willis: we did, lol. he got /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list
[06:58] <dr_willis> cd to the dir, and move them to  /root/ ;)
[06:59] <l057c0d3r> well if its the only think in there then sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
[06:59] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: true. jacob_ did it say anything else?
[06:59] <jacob_> Yes it made etc and no
[06:59] <ntzrmtthihu777> I mean when you did ls
[06:59] <l057c0d3r> it made etc  tab completion is working :-)
[07:00] <jacob_> Plus when i go in to the dash it doesn't have the settings for skype wrapper anymore.
[07:00] <l057c0d3r> hi dr_willis
[07:00] <dubbypca> l057c0d3r: i tried nvidia driver, now its uninstalled to try legacy, but tha makes no difference to crashs
[07:00] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: yeah because purge got rid of it, you just needa get rid of the unneeded ppa
[07:01] <jacob_> Oh yeah understandable.
[07:01] <l057c0d3r> dubbypca, do you have an older kernel installed you can boot into and see how it works..
[07:01] <l057c0d3r> also do you have linux-headers-generic installed
[07:02] <dubbypca> will make no difference, since problems also were with first kernels installed with 12.04
[07:02] <l057c0d3r> hmm... let me think
[07:02] <jacob_> yeah when i did the sudo rm this is what comes after rm: cannot remove `/etc/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list': No such file or directory
[07:02] <dubbypca> i must check headers, its not the machine im on now.
[07:03] <dr_willis> jacob_:  its /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[07:03] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: what dr_willis said
[07:03] <ntzrmtthihu777> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list
[07:03] <jacob_> Awww ok
[07:03] <dr_willis> cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[07:03] <dr_willis> then ''ls' to see whats there
[07:04] <kaustubh> I came across this question in UNIX google plus community "How to login using ssh with stored password in config file or as a parameter, since i dont want to use sshkeygen , expect, sshpass ?" Does anyone have clue?
[07:04] <Grimhound> Ugh. Tried installing webcam software, and now Xubuntu is showing a bluetooth icon in the panel
[07:04] <Grimhound> There has never been any bluetooth anything connected to this computer
[07:05] <cfhowlett> Grimhound, right click the icon, properties and change the icon image
[07:06] <Grimhound> cfhowlett, There is no such option
[07:06] <litropy> ntzrmtthihu777, running sensors:No sensors found!
[07:06] <l057c0d3r> grimhound not sure about xubuntu.. but check in the settings for startup applications and just uncheck the blueman .
[07:06] <jacob_> still saying the same thing
[07:06] <litropy> ntzrmtthihu777, sensors-detect, yes to all: No modules to load, skipping modules configuration.
[07:06] <Onixs> histo can you link me again with that "mkisofs"
[07:06] <ntzrmtthihu777> litropy: do you even have internal sensors? not all machines have the same sensors or even have them at all
[07:07] <Onixs> was it you or dr_willis
[07:07] <jacob_> or it says bash: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list: No such file or directory
[07:07] <litropy> ntzrmtthihu777, it's a cheap, old computer. I guess not.
[07:07] <ntzrmtthihu777> litropy: there you go.
[07:07] <Grimhound> What is the command to restart the GUI in Xubuntu?
[07:07] <l057c0d3r> jacob_, type cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[07:07] <l057c0d3r> type ls
[07:07] <l057c0d3r> if nothing appears then its gone
[07:08] <l057c0d3r> if skype shows in there then from where you are
[07:08] <ntzrmtthihu777> Grimhound: startx, maybe?
[07:08] <litropy> ntzrmtthihu777, it's surprising, though. I guess the fan is just running a constant speed, huh? Is there a way to tell it to go faster?
[07:08] <l057c0d3r> make sure its the /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[07:08] <l057c0d3r> type rm *
[07:08] <l057c0d3r> well sudo rm *
[07:08] <ntzrmtthihu777> litropy: depends on the hardware, and I have not a clue there.
[07:09] <l057c0d3r> litropy, its not uncommmon.. like this computer... its new..  and the only censor it has if for cpu temp
[07:09] <l057c0d3r> blah sensor
[07:09]  * [Saint] would expect any reasonable recent mobo to have CPU_TEMP
[07:09] <[Saint]> *reasonably
[07:10] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: hell all I have is a pci temp
[07:10] <[Saint]> Most will have seperate CPU_TEMP and SYS_TEMP
[07:10] <litropy> sudo pwmconfig
[07:10] <litropy> lol I just used my IRC client as a terminal. Man. It really is late. lol.
[07:11] <jacob_> its says ls cannot access /etc/apt/skype-wrapper-ppa-quantal.list.d/
[07:11] <ntzrmtthihu777> litropy: my irc client is a terminable
[07:11] <ntzrmtthihu777> *terminal
[07:11] <l057c0d3r> sigh....
[07:11] <[Saint]> heh, I set up aliases in quassel to tell me to go to bed or put my glasses on when I do that ;)
[07:11] <l057c0d3r> jacob_, /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[07:11] <jacob_> I do not know if i typed it out wrong. Not sure.
[07:11] <litropy> ntzrmtthihu777, with you as an ubuntu power user, I'm not surprised.
[07:11] <Grimhound> Whoever said "startx" should be banned
[07:12] <Grimhound> I now have to do a hard reformat thanks to that
[07:12] <ntzrmtthihu777> Grimhound: that was me, and it starts the gui on my system.
[07:12] <l057c0d3r> ntzrmtthihu777, using irssi are u
[07:12] <litropy> Grimhound, seriously? what happened?
[07:12] <ntzrmtthihu777> l057c0d3r: yes, we had this discussion the other day
[07:12] <l057c0d3r> reformat ??? no just a reset
[07:12] <l057c0d3r> and not a hard reset
[07:12] <l057c0d3r> try alf f3
[07:13] <histo> Grimhound: if xubuntu is using lightdm you can restart that service.    sudo restart lightdm
[07:13] <Grimhound> It locked me out of my main user name and reset everything to some factory default
[07:13] <l057c0d3r> to get into a different terminal screen
[07:13] <jacob_> what should come up?
[07:13] <l057c0d3r> login and do sudo reboot
[07:13] <histo> Grimhound: No it didn't
[07:13] <Grimhound> Yes it did
[07:13] <histo> Grimhound: exit X
[07:13] <l057c0d3r> err ctl alt f3
[07:13] <Grimhound> I restarted
[07:13] <Grimhound> I am locked out
[07:13] <Grimhound> Doesn't accept my password
[07:13] <[Saint]> Grimhound: wtf?!?
[07:13] <histo> Grimhound: well I can assure you startx didn't do that.
[07:13] <[Saint]> that's REALLY not expected behaviour.
[07:13] <Grimhound> StartX did do it
[07:13] <dr_willis> startx most likely did not do it...
[07:13] <litropy> Grimhound, it's possible you just need to switch to your other window manager.
[07:13] <Grimhound> StartX was the only thing I did
[07:13] <l057c0d3r> grimhound from a different tty screen it should have
[07:14] <ntzrmtthihu777> startx should not do all of dat, startx does exactly what it says.
[07:14] <[Saint]> It isn;t anyone's fault for suggesting it, that's abnormal.
[07:14] <jacob_> should this come upjacob-HP-2000-Notebook-PC:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$
[07:14] <ntzrmtthihu777> jacob_: yeah, it means you are inside that folder
[07:14] <dr_willis> jacob_:  bash basics.. your prompt has changed to your current 'working directtory'
[07:14] <Grimhound> It blanked my computer and locked me out, regardless of what it should've done
[07:14] <histo> Grimhound: Why is it that you wanted to restart X int he first place?
[07:14] <l057c0d3r> yep.. now that you are where you need to be do ls
[07:15] <Grimhound> I wanted to restart XFCE
[07:15] <dr_willis> blancked and locked out.. are a little vague
[07:15] <histo> Grimhound: Why did you want to restart xfce?
[07:15] <Grimhound> I don't even know what X is
[07:15] <jacob_> ok thanks and ok there we now whats the next step?
[07:15] <dr_willis> !x
[07:15] <Grimhound> Because I wanted to enact a change without logging out
[07:15] <ntzrmtthihu777> Grimhound: press ctrl+alt+f1 at your black screen
[07:15]  * [Saint] sometimes wonders why people don;t use an OS that suits them a little better
[07:15] <histo> lol
