[17:32] <lotuspsychje> Tad_: an i7, ofcourse why you ask?
[17:32] <JokesOnYou77> MonkeyDust, I just echoed $(whoami).  What  I'm actually trying to figure out is why when I launch a program from the launcher it doesn't have access to environmental variables exported in .bashrc
[17:33] <Tad_> I am using virual box to run windows
[17:34] <eraggo> Abhijit: you should use dd if=inputfile | pv | of=outfile .Piping pv between should should progress
[17:34] <Abhijit> eraggo, That user reports that he has to wait more using this method.
[17:34] <Abhijit> but if it works let me try it this time ...
[17:34] <asarch> I have an issue with the new release: both my laptop and my Internet wireless AP are off and then I turn on only the laptop (it smells my neighbors' wireless AP) and an hour later I turn on my AP but the laptop does not get connected
[17:35] <asarch> It used to work fine with previous releases
[17:35] <asarch> What's wrong with this new one?
[17:35] <Abhijit> dd if=ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso | pv | of=/dev/sdb prints the progress bar just "once" and exit me to regular terminal prompt. whats wrong?
[17:36] <TJ-> asarch: possibly the wireless chip is in the wrong regulatory domain and cannot see the AP?
[17:36] <asarch> I have to turn off wireless connections and then turn on again so it can gets connected to my AP
[17:36] <asarch> If I turn on the AP first and then the laptop, it works fine
[17:36] <TJ-> asarch: for example, in the US the limit is channel 11 but in Europe its channel 13, and 14 in Japan. If the regulatory domain has set to US and the AP were broadcasting on channel 12,13,14 then the client won't find the AP
[17:37] <eraggo> Abhijit: seems like you need to give buffersize and count in "if" part. I just trust when using dd and wait as long it takes (10 mins maybe)
[17:37] <TJ-> asarch: maybe a signal strength issue then. Try from the terminal "sudo iwlist scan wlan0" (or whatever the PC's WiFi interface is named)
[17:38] <Abhijit> eraggo, ok. let me try without pv!
[17:39] <eraggo> Abhijit: just make sure sdb is correct disk... Lost 150G of data accidentally when i had plugged in external hard drive and tried to copy iso to thumb drive
[17:40] <Abhijit> eraggo, Thats nothing! Once I formatted sda thinking I am formatting sdb in gparted! :-p
[17:40] <__raven> how to run avrdude with an avrispmkII without root/sudo on 14.04.3? editing udev rules did not help in any way. ideas?
[17:40] <Abhijit> it had office work data!
[17:41] <eraggo> Abhijit: ouch. I learned to make backups after that. Just wait dd to do it work
[17:41] <Abhijit> me too! yeah waiting now...
[17:42] <pavlos> Abhijit, re the dd command, it should be dd if=this | pv | dd of=that
[17:43] <asarch> Is there any way to set "priorities" in connections?
[17:43] <Abhijit> pavlos, thats what I did?
[17:44] <pavlos> Abhijit, after the second pipe, repeat dd
[17:44] <eraggo> Abhijit: pavlos was right lol
[17:44] <Abhijit> pavlos, oh. I see.
[17:44] <Abhijit> :-)
[17:44] <Abhijit> pavlos, eraggo thanks
[17:45] <pavlos> Abhijit, np
[17:45] <eraggo> pavlos: i had to re-check. Just did not see that part
[17:45] <ioria> !indi wifi-radar
[17:45] <ioria> !info wifi-radar
[17:47] <pavlos> Abhijit, you can also do this, pv this.iso | dd of=that

[18:44] <meLon> I install gcc and it says it installs 4.8.2, yet gcc itself says it is 4.8.4
[18:44] <lotuspsychje> !info gcc
[18:45] <lotuspsychje> meLon: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[18:45] <meLon> Trusty, which says as apt says, that the version should be 4.8.2, but gcc -v disagrees lotuspsychje

[18:55] <fellayaboy> sambagirl, instead of installing just gcc..did you try to install like so...sudo apt-get install build-essential
[18:55] <fellayaboy> myabe that could help
[18:55] <fellayaboy> which vmware your trying to install?
[18:55] <sambagirl> fellaboy no
[18:55] <sambagirl> i'll try that.

[18:59] <yingw787> hi
[18:59] <yingw787> I had some questions about static IPs
[18:59] <lotuspsychje> yingw787: ##networking
[18:59] <fellayaboy> sambagirl, all those gcc and dependcies could be resolved with build-essential package..most of the time
[18:59] <yingw787> thanks I will check that out
[19:00] <fellayaboy> so in future just use that
[19:00] <fellayaboy> whats your question yingw787
[19:00] <yingw787> I cannot ping my router for some reason
[19:00] <yingw787> we have a a bunch of servers wired to a switch
[19:01] <fellayaboy> okay
[19:01] <fellayaboy> so ur trying to ping the gateway of the router
[19:01] <yingw787> and I am on one of the computers and I am running an ubuntu VM
[19:01] <fellayaboy> yingw787, oh is ur ubuntu vm using bridged network adapter?
[19:01] <yingw787> apparently I have the network, gateway, and mask addresses
[19:01] <yingw787> yeah it is a bridged network
[19:01] <yingw787> I don't know what that means tho
[19:02] <fellayaboy> oh ok
[19:02] <HankK> i'm trying to apply an ssl certificate to an apache2 web server. The only part that is left is to edit some .conf  files.  Any ideas why it's doing that and how to save permanently?
[19:02] <fellayaboy> basically...bridge network adapter...it'll get an ip from the dhcp server and act as a ethernet port on the network basically
[19:02] <fellayaboy> as if it were its own real life machine
[19:02] <fellayaboy> basically, to put it in laymens term
[19:03] <fellayaboy> so whats your static ip setting?
[19:03] <fellayaboy> did you modify /etc/network/interfaces?
[19:03] <yingw787> fellayaboy: yeah I did
[19:03] <fellayaboy> pm me  yingw787
[19:03] <yingw787> I ran sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
[19:03] <yingw787> fellayaboy: how do I pm
[19:04] <fellayaboy> i sent u a message
[19:05] <cprm> anyone have a lvm-raid5 preseed  that works?
[19:13] <HankK> i'm trying to apply an ssl certificate to an apache2 web server. The only part that is left is to edit some .conf  files.  Any ideas why it's doing that and how to save permanently?
[19:14] <h117fg> HankK: Just a guess but #ubuntu-server might be an option

[19:29] <__raven> how to run avrdude without root/sudo on 14.04.3?
[19:31] <OerHeks> chmod that application to its own group, and join that?
[19:34] <OerHeks> sudo chown -Rv $USER:$USER /path/to/avrdude
[19:35] <__raven> OerHeks: perhaps we instead should talk about several udev issues which dont work
[19:36] <__raven> http://pastebin.com/GKwuDTed
[19:36] <OerHeks> __raven, that would be an avrdude issue, i guess, i don't have an Atmel controller board
[19:37] <tertiary> I installed 14.04.02 to a new system I built. After the BIOS it goes to a blank screen, is this because of the graphics drivers not being installed?
[19:38] <__raven> tertiary: try editing the boot command with "nomodeset" at the end
[19:38] <tertiary> i did that, doesn't do anything :(
[19:39] <__raven> tertiary: did you try the nosplash option too?
[19:39] <tertiary> I have not
[19:39] <TJ-> tertiary: Does the screen go black if the PC is started in Recovery mode, and then you choose "Resume" booting?
[19:39] <h117fg> tertiary: You install from alive desktop, have you seen it run in other words?
[19:40] <OerHeks> __raven, how abou this old 2010 page > https://mightyohm.com/blog/2010/03/run-avrdude-without-root-privs-in-ubuntu/
[19:41] <__raven> OerHeks: tried that already. on any page i also read anything about a bug or a different udev behaviour in newer ubuntu versions :(
[19:41] <__raven> but i don tknow
[19:42] <Omilun> hello ... i have not loading page ... how can i have it?
[19:43] <__raven> Omilun: do you mean you have a blank screen while boot?
[19:43] <ioria> __raven are you running it from eclipse ?
[19:43] <__raven> ioria: id like to but i thought i have to solve it on its own
[19:44] <Omilun> __raven: linux have a loading page after grub page
[19:44] <Omilun> __raven: i have not that ... i have black screen
[19:44] <ioria> __raven   have you seen this ? http://rurandom.org/justintime/index.php?title=Running_avrdude_from_eclipse_under_linux
[19:44] <__raven> Omilun: right. did you try editing the boot command using "nomodeset"?
[19:45] <tertiary> TJ - thanks, recovery mode got me to the terminal. I guess I just need to downlaod my graphics drivers from here and then reboot normally and I should be good?
[19:45] <Bray90820> Anyone here use an apple magic mouse with ubuntu I'm having trouble setting the scroll speed
[19:45] <zykotick9> Omilun: i'd also suggest removing "quiet splash" and substituting nomodeset in it's place... <- any more output?
[19:45] <Omilun> __raven: no ... after install ubuntu ... i see black screen
[19:46] <zykotick9> !nomodest | Omilun
[19:46] <zykotick9> !nomodeset | Omilun
[19:46] <__raven> Omilun: try what zykotick9 said. further you could try to boot into recovery mode and see if you go to login when selecting "resume boot"
[19:48] <Omilun> zykotick9 & __raven: thx
[19:48] <Bray90820> Is there a channel for ubuntu on apple hardware
[19:49] <__raven> ioria: dont know if the eclipse problem is related to the problem to call it without root (i guess eclipse would run it as user too?). i at the moment try to get used to eclipse and setup the avr toolchain and preferences-avr-target hardware-load from mcu leads me to a message in short "could not understand the output from avrdude / reason: could not find a valid signature..."

[19:57] <olabaz> hey, I have a flash drive that was pulled out during a file transfer and now it doesn't work. I've been trying to format it but it isn't showing up when I do "fdisk -l" however, it does show up when I do "lsblk" any ideas?
[19:59] <geirha> olabaz: did you run fdisk -l as root?
[19:59] <olabaz> geirha, yes
[20:00] <olabaz> Also, the contents of the flash drive will show for 20 seconds and then it will disappear. So I have hope that I can somehow recover it
[20:00] <vfw> olabaz: So where is it?  /dev/sdb ?
[20:00] <olabaz> vfw yes sdb
[20:00] <vfw> olabaz: # fdisk /dev/sdb
[20:01] <vfw> p

[20:02] <olabaz> even though when I plugged it in it showed the contents for 20 seconds
[20:03] <olabaz> I also noticed the mountpoint changes from "/media/DISK_IMG" to nothing
[20:08] <syriamylove> hi
[20:09] <Sebsebsebb> h117fg Do you know about UEFI yourself?
[20:12] <vfw>   olabaz That's weird
[20:12] <tittan> hello all
[20:12] <tittan> I love linux and ubuntu as well is my favourite dektop os
[20:12] <tittan> i need some help with a setup on an old asus netbook 1201k
[20:12] <Omilun> __raven: hey dude ... i fix it ... but my desktop  screen is not good graphic
[20:12] <vfw> olabaz: So you can not run  fdisk /sev/sdb  in less than 20 seconds?
[20:13] <olabaz> vfw, if I run it, it will just hang until the usb gets unmounted
[20:13] <chai_> jjjjj
[20:13] <vfw> olabaz: Don't mount it.
[20:13] <penguser> can anyone help with the program libreoffice?  is there a bug with ubuntu regarding this program?
[20:14] <Omilun> __raven: i backed befor seting ...
[20:14] <vfw> olabaz: Is your system automatically mounting USB dcevices?
[20:14] <k1l_> penguser: details matter :)
[20:14] <olabaz> vfw, I think so
[20:14] <vfw> olabaz: I do *not* think so.
[20:14] <penguser> the layout is ***** up
[20:15] <olabaz> vfw, doesn't the mountpoint being "/media/disk_img" suggest that?
[20:15] <vfw> olabaz: Well, there are a couple of possibilities.  The USB device could be defective.
[20:15] <penguser> I was just typing and everything disappeared and the layout is small with tiny text
[20:15] <vfw> olabaz: A mount point does not suggest anything
[20:15] <vfw> olabaz: A mount point is in use or not in use
[20:16] <olabaz> vfw, it was working fine until a transfer was interrupted. Ah, I see, then I'm not sure
[20:16] <tittan> it have i'm installing Ubuntu 13.10 desktop i386 now
[20:17] <xangua> tittan: why are you installing an unsupported release?
[20:17] <penguser> if I uninstall it, will it go back to default formats?
[20:17] <polishpoliceforc> anyone get omegle to work correctly on ubuntu with firefox / chrome?
[20:17] <penguser> I'm tired of this bugs
[20:17] <vfw> olabaz: Disconnecting a device while it's being written to is bad.
[20:17] <penguser> these*
 just because maibe the lastest ubuntu is very heavy for this baby
[20:18] <hogslammer> hi
[20:18] <tittan> its an old netbook
[20:18] <olabaz> vfw, yeah. Do you think playing around with fstab will help?
[20:18] <tittan> even winxp is slow on it
[20:18] <k1l_> penguser: maybe you changed the zoom or stuff like that?
[20:18] <xangua> tittan: then use a supported Ubuntu flavor like xUbuntu or IUbuntu, not an unsupported release
[20:19] <k1l_> !lubuntu | tittan other users report its good on netbooks.
 do you think xUbuntu will do?
[20:19] <xangua> tittan: I don't know your computer specs
[20:20] <vfw> olabaz: And to be honest, I've never disconnected a drive while it was geing written to, so I'm not sure what would happen, but I assume you would loose the file that is being written, and maybe even wreck the filesystem beyond repair.  But I would think one could delete the partitions and create new ones. But it could be that the device is just ruined.
[20:20] <hogslammer> y
[20:21] <hogslammer> i got a busybox issue right after installing ubuntu.  i thought it was raid 0 so i broke raid and wiped all hard drives clean, then installed it and got same issue even after bios change from raid to ahci mode.  im pissed.

[20:42] <TJ-> hogslammer: and what make/model is the SSD?
[20:42] <hogslammer> and still didnt fix the slow to respond issue.  i have to go into recovery mode from grub to make it into my ubuntu.
[20:43] <hogslammer> SSDSA2SH032G1GN INTEL (045C8850)
[20:43] <hogslammer> both are identical and have upgraded firmware to latest.
[20:44] <hogslammer> logs showing they refuse to load at 3gb per second so it knocks down half speed to 1.5g.
[20:45] <controllersyr> Hi- I need help with ubuntu software center Kapatcha key- I am trying to sign up but kapatcha key wrong- is there a solution
[20:45] <TJ-> hogslammer: In the system BIOS, you should try disabling AHCI mode on the controller those drives are connected to
[20:47] <hogslammer> raid hates it, ahci hates it, ide mode.  will try that.
[20:47] <hogslammer> i heard ide mode sucks
[20:47] <hogslammer> raid 0 is what i wanted but had to split drives and deal with half speed, and still dont work
[20:47] <TJ-> hogslammer: Apparently, some SATA controllers have problems with the X25-E in AHCI mode and downgrade the link to SATA1 instead of the drives' SATA 2 preference
[20:47] <hogslammer> same exact issue too
[20:48] <hogslammer> so if i want performance, i boot into windows 8 after changing back to ahci from ide.
[20:48] <hogslammer> ok
[20:49] <TJ-> hogslammer: Also, more specific to that particular motherboard, in the firmware setup ensure you *disable*,  under advanced storage settings, SATA Aggressive link power management
[20:50] <hogslammer> yes i did that a few years ago and its still disabled.
[20:50] <TJ-> hogslammer: OK, that would be the obvious one with that mobo
[20:51] <hogslammer> i have 2 controllers onboard .  one is by asmedia, and the other is intel.
[20:51] <hogslammer> i wish they never invented UEFI
[20:51] <hogslammer> but ya its all not in UEFI modes for sure.
[20:52] <hogslammer> since i broken my raid array anyway i might try to rewire it all to the asmedia controller instead of the intel one.
[20:52] <marines84> CIAOOO
[20:53] <marines84> !list
[20:53] <hogslammer> right now im using both.  i think i have the spin drive on asmedia as well as the cdrom, but the 2 ssd are on the intel controller.
[20:53] <hogslammer> 1000 dollars in hard drives to run in ide mode making me look like an idiot.
[21:04] <tertiary> this is super weird. I am *sure* I installed the server ISO (directly from Ubuntu). Upon sucessful boot, it takes me to a GUI login screen, where it states "Failed to start session". Any ideas as to why it doesn't boot to the command line?
[21:04] <hogslammer> yo tj it worked  ide mode went fast, but still had to do it thru recovery mode.
[21:05] <TJ-> hogslammer: I'm reading on the Intel forums, from posts by the Intel engineers, there are known problems with those SSDs because they require power at the top end of the range the specification requires but some motherboards only supply the minimum the specification requires. One possible solution is to run independent power to the drives.
[21:06] <hogslammer> ahh hmm
[21:06] <TJ-> hogslammer: It seems mostly it happens with certain combinations of SATA controller chipset and that X25-E
[21:06] <TJ-> hogslammer: I don't suppose you have a PCIe SATA II controller adapter you could plug in, to test it on a different controller, do you?
[21:07] <hogslammer> well you would think that intel would work with intel flawless, thats why igot this mobo.
[21:07] <hogslammer> i have 2 onboard controllers
[21:07] <TJ-> hogslammer: Apparently it depends on the motherboard manufacturer too, as to how they implement the controller/power logic ... I've seen mention of your motherboard and 1 other that are particularly known to exhibit problems
[21:08] <Bashing-om> tertiary: There is no GUI with the server install.
[21:08] <hogslammer> 1 is by asmedia, and the other is intel.  8 total ports.  i have the spindrive and burner on the asmedia, and the 2 ssd on the intel.   intel rom acts like it needs control over spin drive which boggles me.
[21:08] <TJ-> hogslammer: I also wonder if you'd get better results, purely for testing purposes, if you only have 1 drive connected
[21:08] <Hobbet1> 1
[21:09] <TJ-> hogslammer: boot a Live ISO image on USB and see if the kernel can correctly bring up the SATA 2 link with only 1 SSD connected
[21:09] <hogslammer> i do know that setting IDE mode off from ahci mode got me in with little delay.  ubuntu on normal mode freaked on not finding drives using the ahci driver, but recovery mode sorta didnt care and loaded some generic driver i bet so i booted fast.
[21:09] <zeeshan-laptop> what is the correct location to execture a command after /etc/modules is loaded
[21:10] <zeeshan-laptop> i want to execute: echo "2001 3c25" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800usb/new_id
[21:10] <minimec> zeeshan-laptop: Put it in /etc/rc.local
[21:10] <hogslammer> fun, ok im on it
[21:11] <zeeshan-laptop> will it haveenough permission to access that?
[21:11] <TJ-> hogslammer: good luck with it :)
[21:11] <zeeshan-laptop> cause when i try to do "sudo  echo "2001 3c25" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800usb/new_id"
[21:11] <hogslammer> i wonder if i can get xchat to work on my android, but ill be back hopefully if it dont break my installs
[21:11] <zeeshan-laptop> i get a permission denied error
[21:11] <minimec> zeeshan-laptop: sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
[21:11] <hogslammer> ty tj for helpin
[21:13] <hogslammer> 1 usb drive and its running hirens boot cd on it

[21:13] <fantasticMrFox> are the commands used in the terminal in linux (ubuntu) the same as mac?

[21:20] <olabaz> hey, I have the exact same problem with my usb device as in this post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1160169#p1160169
[21:20] <olabaz> unfortunately there is no solution there. Any ideas?
[21:23] <minimec> olabaz: Are you in a GUI environment and logged in as nomral user? Then plug the device, mount it in the filemanager as normal user(!), then open a terminal and do the dd command as root.
[21:25] <olabaz> minimec, how would I mount it in the filemanager?

[21:28] <mircx1> how i`m fix it?
[21:28] <minimec> olabaz: oh I see. It's not formatted...
[21:29] <mircx1> ?
[21:30] <olabaz> minimec, yes it's a very strange problem. Sometimes I can list the files inside but only for a few seconds and then it just disappears.
[21:33] <minimec> olabaz: Can you use the stick on a different computer or/and OS? Just to check if the stick is working correctly. Is it USB2 or USB3?
[21:33] <olabaz> minimec, usb2 I think. And I've tried it on different computers and OSs and they all just hang when you try to open the drive
[21:35] <minimec> olabaz: So your stick is dead or dying... probably.
[21:37] <sixunhuit> When I reboot (sudo reboot or clicking the icon) I sometimes get the ubuntu screen with black lines containing colored dots. Any idea for troubleshooting?

[22:07] <vamsiampolu> my bootloader is not working from my laptop,tried to repair it,this is the report http://paste.ubuntu.com/11780753/
[22:08] <vamsiampolu> i have installed ubuntu on my external,i boot it up,grub2 opens up,does nothing after option selection...just purple screens out
[22:11] <ubuntu936> vamsiampolu: What ubuntu release this?
[22:12] <vamsiampolu> 15.04
[22:12] <ubuntu936> vamsiampolu: Looks like 15.04, externals are slow no matter what, try hitting the esc after the boot to see some text.
[22:12] <vamsiampolu> amd64
[22:14] <vamsiampolu> esc as soon as option is selected
[22:14] <Bray90820> How would I run a bash script without being asked for sudo
[22:14] <Bray90820> my root password
[22:14] <ubuntu936> vamsiampolu: This asscociated with an update/upgrade and or adding graphic drivers? You have a kernel update, it made it that far.
[22:18] <vamsiampolu> yes,im trying to get it to use amd fglrx-updates,i installed everything using an intel machine,i tried setting up amdconfig there,would not work
[22:19] <OerHeks> Bray90820, add a line to sudoers file ? http://askubuntu.com/a/425762
[22:19] <ikonia> vamsiampolu: do you have an amd card ?
[22:19] <vamsiampolu> take a look at http://superuser.com/questions/933146/ubuntu-15-04-not-loading-from-external-hard-drive-for-amd
[22:19] <vamsiampolu> @ikonia yes,ofcourse I do
[22:20] <ikonia> vamsiampolu: so why ar eyou not just using the packages ubuntu provides for amd cards ?
[22:21] <Bray90820> OerHeks: 10 or 2
[22:21] <vamsiampolu> @ikonia because it did not boot with that,i tried
[22:21] <ikonia> vamsiampolu: define "would not boot"
[22:22] <OerHeks> Bray90820, 10 or 2?? just the one with the line: username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /path/to/script
[22:22] <vamsiampolu> got stuck at loading ramdisk for over an hour
[22:22] <ikonia> so why do you think thats your video card
[22:22] <Bray90820> OerHeks: Alright Thanks
[22:23] <vamsiampolu> because it loaded up perfectly on an intel machine,this is my laptop http://www.flipkart.com/lenovo-essential-g505s-59-379862-laptop-apu-quad-core-a8-8gb-1tb-dos-2-5gb-graph/p/itmdm5ukxfqvwkqf?pid=COMDM5UGX9QFNWAM
[22:23] <ikonia> "on an intel machine"
[22:24] <ikonia> how are you swapping the cards ?
[22:24] <nicechap_> How can I add more desktops on Lubuntu?
[22:24] <nicechap_> There is probably something called Desktop Pager, but I dont know where it is hidden...
[22:25] <nicechap_> I only have 2 desktops default :(
[22:26] <vamsiampolu> no,i took my external hdd and connected it to an Intel laptop,I changed the boot options...i asked it to boot from my hdd,it did without any hiccups
[22:27] <ikonia> you're booting from an external hard disk ?
[22:27] <vamsiampolu> @ikonia,switching vga is not my cup of tea
[22:27] <ikonia> so again - why do you think this is a graphics card problem ?
[22:27] <ikonia> the initramdisk has not got "visual" at that point
[22:30] <vamsiampolu> so,ikonia what is the solution,i do happen to know that when i ask grub2 to load windows for me,it goes into the same purple state,is that expected??
[22:30] <ikonia> nope
[22:30] <vamsiampolu> yes,ikonia i am booting from an external hdd
[22:30] <ikonia> where is the boot sector you are using
[22:31] <nicechap_> okay, found it... forget my query...
[22:32] <vamsiampolu> i have no idea,i installed ubuntu on /dev/sda3 which was the external,does the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/11780753/ have no info on this?
[22:33] <ikonia> so it appears grub is on the MBR of the external disk
[22:33] <ikonia> or "sda" that has an NFT and ext4 partion on it
[22:33] <ikonia> partition
[22:34] <ikonia> you also appear to have grub on /dev/sdc
[22:34] <ikonia> which looks like some sort of livecd type media
[22:35] <vamsiampolu> @ikonia any ideas?
[22:35] <ciwolsey> hey
[22:35] <ciwolsey> can someone do me a favor and tell me what command they use to start chrome from a terminal?
[22:36] <hkrrsx> ciwolsey: Try either google-chrome , google-chrome-stable google-chrome-beta or google-chrome-unstable
[22:36] <hkrrsx> It'll be one of those
[22:36] <OerHeks> ciwolsey, i hardly do 'chromium-browser & '
[22:36] <Bray90820> OerHeks: that didn't seem to work
[22:37] <ciwolsey> i need defintive answer
[22:37] <ikonia> ciwolsey: what's the problem you are trying to solve
[22:37] <ciwolsey> im trying to debug a web app on a system where chrome is started with "google-chrome-stable"
[22:37] <ciwolsey> but the distro is not as common as ubuntu and i think its weird naming is causing issues
[22:38] <ciwolsey> so i thought, what is more common than ubuntu, i wonder what the packages there name it...
[22:38] <ikonia> what does it matter what it's called in ubuntu ?
[22:38] <Bray90820> OerHeks: what I am trying to do is run this script on startup without asking for a sudo password
[22:38] <Bray90820> http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=c2yTpcnx
[22:38] <ikonia> what matters is your target system
[22:38] <ciwolsey> no
[22:38] <ciwolsey> what matters is what its conventionally called
[22:39] <mtn> heh
[22:39] <ciwolsey> its not a hard question.. if anyone has chrome installed please just could you tell me what command you start it with from terminal?
[22:39] <ikonia> there is no convention
[22:39] <ikonia> it depends on who packages and the variation
[22:39] <ciwolsey> jesus fucking christ man
[22:39] <ciwolsey> this is why i dont come in here
[22:39] <ivan_on_trac> I need help. The fonts of the island from my server. They are changing automatically. Before: After http://ctrlv.in/595139: http: //ctrlv.in/595141
[22:39] <ciwolsey> its not hard
[22:39] <ciwolsey> seriously
[22:39]  * mtn looks for a big spoon
[22:41] <ivan_on_trac> My "issue" loses font setting. This also occurs with forms.
[22:42] <ivan_on_trac> An example for better understanding. http://ctrlv.in/595141 http://ctrlv.in/595139
[22:45] <vamsiampolu> http://superuser.com/questions/933146/ubuntu-15-04-not-loading-from-external-hard-drive-for-amd
[22:47] <ikonia> vamsiampolu: I think you're looking at it wrong
[22:47] <ikonia> I don't think the video card is your issue
[22:48] <vamsiampolu> ok,how can we run more diagnostics to figure out what the issue is?
[22:49] <ikonia> so the first thing I'd like at is the UUID it's referencig on the disk
[22:49] <ikonia> does that look right ?
[22:49] <ikonia> I suspect moving the disk around to different systems may not help it pick the right partitions,
[22:49] <ikonia> you also think that the ramdisk is not decompressing, I'd like more at verifying that
[22:51] <vamsiampolu> 7af94613-8523-4723-a4f9-89b727a79c24 is the uuid of the disk used by grub2
[22:52] <ikonia> so when you see it boot it should reference that - does the screen shot it referencing the right UUID
[22:54] <vamsiampolu> wait a sec,i have a https://www.dropbox.com/s/g3t1eh064623m42/IMG_20150626_221507386.jpg?dl=0
[22:57] <vamsiampolu> ikonia,more explanation?
[23:04] <muhammetarda> hi
[23:04] <vamsiampolu> ikonia what can i do to provide more info?
[23:10] <hypernova> hello.
[23:10] <hypernova> im back ;(
[23:11] <hypernova> so i built my self a new computer case and put my comp in it and now ubunto won't boot... runing a fsck but any adice would be amazing
[23:12] <hypernova> also wondering the best version of fsck command to run
[23:15] <Bashing-om> hypernova: I take it that a liveDVD boots ? Have you verified UUIDs in /etc/fstab with 'sudo blkid' and same same UUIDs are in /boot/grub/grub/cfg ?
[23:15] <hypernova> erm nope
[23:15] <hypernova> i have grub and tahts it
[23:15] <hypernova> and i have no livecd
[23:15] <hypernova> or flash drive...
[23:16] <hypernova> all i have is grub on that computer
[23:16] <hypernova> i get a lot of errors when i try to mount it in rercovory mode
[23:17] <hypernova> im not sure why
[23:17] <Bashing-om> hypernova: If you can not boot something exterior to the install to looks at the install, there is not anything I can do to assist .
[23:18] <hypernova> ahh ha
[23:18] <hypernova> got a flash drive!
[23:20] <Bashing-om> hypernova: :) burn ya a 'buntu to the thumb drive, same vesion as what is installed on the hard drive .
[23:20] <hypernova> ok
[23:20] <hypernova> when i try to boot in recovory mode
[23:20] <hypernova> i get a bunch of nothung
[23:20] <hypernova> like fails
[23:21] <hypernova> and i/o error dev scd sectore blah blah blah'
[23:21] <Johnny_Linux> sudo touch /forcefsck  reboot     maybe ??
[23:21] <hypernova> unable to read super block blah blah blah
[23:21] <hypernova> where would i run that?
[23:21] <Johnny_Linux> terminal
[23:22] <hypernova> if i run it in my console i get sudo not found....
[23:22] <Johnny_Linux> recovery terminal
[23:22] <hypernova> how do i acess that?
[23:22] <Johnny_Linux> o  ok
[23:22] <hypernova> ubuntu noob here...
[23:22] <Johnny_Linux> hold shift @ boot to recovery
[23:22] <Johnny_Linux> drop to terminal
[23:22] <hypernova> k
[23:23] <hypernova> erm
[23:25] <hypernova> erm
[23:25] <hypernova> not working...
[23:25] <hypernova> erm not sure how to boot recovory mode
[23:25] <hypernova> all i have is grub man
[23:25] <Johnny_Linux> then youll have to have a copy of ubuntu
[23:25] <Johnny_Linux> nice try tho
[23:26] <hypernova> lol
[23:26] <Johnny_Linux> D`oh!
[23:26] <hypernova> d'oh??
[23:26] <Johnny_Linux> ygrub didnt show kernel recovery ??
[23:26] <Johnny_Linux> grub
[23:27] <Trinity> is there a way I can save exactly how my ubuntu is and then reformat my computer to that same image?
[23:29] <bodhi_zazen> Trinity, yes, but why bother ?
[23:29] <bodhi_zazen> Trinity, boot a live CD and use dd to make a copy and then dd to restore
[23:29] <hypernova> idk
[23:29] <Trinity> bodhi_zazen, so if anything ever goes terribly wrong with HDDs I can have a backup of the fixes i've made for this particular setup
[23:29] <hypernova> i need a live cd it seems
[23:29] <Johnny_Linux> yeah
[23:30] <bodhi_zazen> But if you are looking for a backup strategy, that is not a ggo one
[23:30] <bodhi_zazen> *good
[23:30] <hypernova> seems they are your best freind for fixing problems
[23:30] <Johnny_Linux> can b
[23:30] <vamsiampolu> http://superuser.com/questions/933146/ubuntu-15-04-not-loading-from-external-hard-drive-for-amd
[23:30] <bodhi_zazen> Trinity, you can , but that is not IMO the best strategy
[23:31] <Trinity> bodhi_zazen, okay so you're suggesting to just back it up w/ all the fixes with dd?
[23:31] <bodhi_zazen> Just back up /home /root , any system files you edited, and a list of installed packages
[23:31] <Trinity> ah i see, so you can continue with ubuntu updates if there are any
[23:31] <bodhi_zazen> And if you have a server, your server data, such as /var/www/html etc
[23:32] <bodhi_zazen> Trinity, yes, why back up with dd something you install with apt-get ?
[23:33] <Trinity> bodhi_zazen, well what if you forget something hahaha
[23:35] <bodhi_zazen> Then you will have to remember it later ;)
[23:36] <bodhi_zazen> backing up the entire / partition makes for very large backups
[23:36] <hypernova> idk
[23:36] <hypernova> whats the best way to fix i/o errors
[23:38] <bodhi_zazen> Trinity, look at the options here : http://askubuntu.com/questions/9135/how-to-backup-settings-and-list-of-installed-packages
[23:39] <hypernova> i think my harddrive is shot
[23:40] <hypernova> very old drive
[23:40] <hypernova> easer to just instill ubunto onto a new drive...
[23:40] <bodhi_zazen> Trinity, Just take care, the first 2 answers, the ones more popular then mine, will NOT restore system settings if you edited system files nor will the back up users, groups, or server data (such as /var/www/html)
[23:40] <Bashing-om> Trinity: ^ akso; as a part of the restoration plans (get-selections): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1139264 post #5 ; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261366 .
[23:40] <hypernova> sadly i have no computer for a couple of hours
[23:40] <hypernova> and now i have to install 100 gb of games like a 4th time
[23:41] <bodhi_zazen> hypernova, use smartmontools - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools
[23:41] <hypernova> ubuntus such a bitch
[23:41] <hypernova> ok
[23:41] <bodhi_zazen> if the drive is failing, back up and get a new hard drive
[23:41] <Bashing-om> hypernova: To check a harddive best 1st approach is from a liveDVD run the SMART test tool .
[23:41] <hypernova> i have no live cd still downloading right now
[23:52] <bodhi_zazen> you do not have to to run smartmontools from a live CD
[23:53] <zeeshan-laptop> is there a quick and dirty way to point /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices to /proc/bus/usb/devices
[23:53] <zeeshan-laptop> with the same permissions


[01:39] <nibalizer> i just want to say that i think the ubuntu server documentation is pretty sweet
[01:40] <nibalizer> its not exhaustive or tells you exactly how to set up/tune services
[01:40] <nibalizer> but its really nice to have a page or two per service on how to get running in ubuntu
[01:40] <nibalizer> so thanks!
[01:50] <pmatulis> nibalizer: you can climb aboard and contribute to the docs as well!
[02:04] <nibalizer> theres an idea!
[03:19] <malev> hi folks!
[03:19] <malev> I'm having big issues with my server, I have a wordpress blog and when I try to access it, it offers me to download a .php file. any ideas where to start searching?
[03:22] <patdk-lap> at your webserver and php
[03:24] <ChmEarl> malev, /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf:          DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtml index.htm
[03:25] <malev> Chm I have this
[03:25] <patdk-lap> directory index wouldn't matter at all
[03:25] <malev> ChmEarl, I have that
[03:25] <ChmEarl> malev, sorry that is for dir
[03:25] <malev> np
[03:26] <patdk-lap> it's just that his webserver doesn't know about php
[03:26] <patdk-lap> and there are hundreds of different ways to configuer php with a webserver
[03:28] <ChmEarl> malev, dpkg-reconfigure libapache2-mod-php5
[03:28] <ChmEarl> guessing that might help
[03:30] <malev> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: libapache2-mod-php5 is broken or not fully installed
[03:30] <malev> :(
[03:30] <malev> I'm going to grab a bite, brb
[03:30] <ChmEarl> ;)
[03:41] <ChmEarl> malev, echo "<?php phpinfo(); phpinfo(INFO_MODULES); ?>" > /var/www/html/test.php
[03:42] <ChmEarl> whatever top level dir you setup
[03:42] <ChmEarl> if you go as far as installing wordpress before you test php, its too late to isolate the problem
[03:43] <ChmEarl> in your browser: http://localhost/test.php
[03:58] <malev> ChmEarl, nice idea! I'm gonna test it right now!
[04:08] <qman__> malev, sudo apt-get -f install
[04:09] <qman__> your mod php is broken according to that
[04:26] <malev> qman__, I'm pretty sure about it. I'm gonna try to make it work
[04:52] <Fastmover> so i got this cloud
[04:53] <Fastmover> well not really yet, but my nc isn't giving me any resources in - euca-describe-availability-zones verbose
[04:57] <Fastmover> i've unregistered cc and nc many times now
[04:57] <Fastmover> and reregistered
[04:57] <Fastmover> any ideas?

[09:40] <Alfafa> whois Daviey
[09:41] <Alfafa> Daviey: Hey :)
[14:02] <airtonix> you shouldn't ask questions when you're angry
[14:29] <RoyK> airtonix: ?
[14:31] <airtonix> just sayn
[15:19] <RoyK> to anyone in particular?
[16:01] <sp00fz> anyone built hp proliant g4 server with sata disks?
[16:06] <RoyK> sp00fz: I have a few proliant servers running ubuntu, if that's the question
[16:06] <RoyK> anything from G2 and up
[16:08] <sp00fz> i was wondering if there is any chance to install sata disk instead of sas?
[16:09] <sp00fz> lets say g3 or g4, which raid card do you need?
[16:09] <RoyK> depends on the HBA, but I'm using SATA drives on several SAS controllers
[16:09] <RoyK> just try
[16:10] <RoyK> normally, SATA drives work on SAS controllers, but SAS drives won't work on SATA controllers
[16:12] <sp00fz> actually i am buying server, but don't wanna spent my whole fortune for sas drives this is why i am asking
[16:14] <RoyK> as I said, SATA drives should work on a SAS controller, but not the other way around
[16:14] <RoyK> if in doubt, ask the seller
[16:14] <sp00fz> but they dont work on scsi, do they?
[16:15] <RoyK> SCSI is a completely different interface
[16:16] <RoyK> as in parallel scsi
[16:17] <sp00fz> aha, ok thank you very much for your help RoyK, much appreciated
[16:21] <RoyK> np
[19:16] <ChmEarl> if I drop an IP via iptables rule, does it get logged.. which log?
[19:22] <RoyK> ChmEarl: if you use -j LOG, it does
[19:22] <RoyK> man iptables
[20:02] <Ursinha> hello people :)

[20:33] <io> Ursinha: is there something you need help with?
[20:48] <Daviey> Ursinha: on the coach atm.

[21:34] <io> Ursinha: oh sorry! :-)
[21:35] <Ursinha> io: ah, no problem :)

[21:38] <Ursinha> :/
[21:38] <Ursinha> see you tomorrow :)


[00:02] <staind9383> is there another way to test if the box is functioning correctly other than using that priming script?
[00:03] <tgm4883_laptop> staind9383, your cable company may have encrypted every channel
[00:03] <staind9383> if that was the case, would priming fail?
[00:04] <tgm4883_laptop> i'm not sure about a SA4250HD, but on the motorola boxes, you can check the encrypted status of a channel
[00:04] <tgm4883_laptop> um
[00:04] <tgm4883_laptop> because it's encypted
[00:05] <tgm4883_laptop> and your computer isn't properly responding to the question, "what kind of device are you"
[00:05] <tgm4883_laptop> it's all about DRM
[00:05] <staind9383> hrm
[00:05] <staind9383> is that normal to have a cable co just suddenly turn it on?
[00:06] <tgm4883_laptop> it's happened before
[00:07] <tgm4883_laptop> you might try googling about a diagnostic screen for your STB.  the motorola 62xx ones have it.  Maybe yours does too
[00:07] <staind9383> do you know which status page on SA boxes the encyption status is on?
[00:08] <staind9383> o ok
[00:08]  * tgm4883_laptop shrugs
[00:08] <tgm4883_laptop> like i said, i've only used the 6200's
[00:08] <tgm4883_laptop> but what you want to look for is
[00:08] <tgm4883_laptop> 5c implementation
[00:08] <tgm4883_laptop> and
[00:08] <tgm4883_laptop> CCI broadcast flag
[00:09] <tgm4883_laptop> or a variation of what those say
[00:14] <staind9383> ok, i'll look for those
[00:16] <staind9383> ok
[00:16] <staind9383> there is a value: Src CCI
[00:16] <staind9383> well, maybe its a flag
[00:17] <staind9383> 'SrcCCI: Free'
[00:19] <staind9383> scrolling through the channels (even premiums) the only values i see are 'free' and  'undefined' for the Src CCI flag
[00:20] <staind9383> i think that i am going to try a clean install and setup again.  I just got the box off the ground a month ago and i dont have much on it
[00:20] <staind9383> the mythbox that is
[00:44]  * pwnguin solved the XV problem
[00:45] <pwnguin> seems like the fallback display config decided vesa was a good option
[01:00] <directhex> yes, it does that
[01:00] <directhex> by design
[01:00] <directhex> vesa's mostly guaranteed to work on anything
[01:25] <Egghead3> is vnc broken in 8.04 alpha?
[01:26] <pwnguin> they recently switched the server
[01:27] <Egghead3> pwnguin, huh?
[01:29] <pwnguin> the software that serves vnc in hardy
[01:29] <pwnguin> used to be realvnc
[01:29] <pwnguin> it's been switched
[01:29] <pwnguin> i donno if they have a migration tool for settings
[01:30] <Egghead3> its now vnc4server, like in gusty
[01:31] <npurciful> hey got a question here, if i get a external hdd for mythtv i just tell it to mount via fstab right
[01:31] <Egghead3> well it seems to work some what, i connect, password etc, and get a screen, but when i mouse clikc/ ok key anything, it errors out on the client side with error waiting for server message, and the sever side restarts gdm
[01:32] <Egghead3> npurciful, donno, is it a usb?
[01:33] <npurciful> yeah
[01:34] <Egghead3> was hoping someone else experience the same problem, and its not me, lmao
[01:35] <pwnguin> i havent been able to set it up right in 7.10 ;)
[01:35] <pwnguin> firewall somewhere i guess
[01:35] <Egghead3> npurciful, sorry i dont have any usb drive hooked up, but they arnt too speedy, you sure u want to use that interface?
[01:35] <npurciful> well it has firewire too
[01:35] <npurciful> i have a firewire port i just have ever used it
[01:36] <Egghead3> pwnguin, in 7.10 its a breeze, no pun intended, just make sure u rem out the atp source entry for the cdrom
[01:36] <pwnguin> yea
[01:36] <pwnguin> i got that far
[01:36] <pwnguin> but i still get an error about connection refused
[01:36] <Egghead3> well 2.0 and firewire are ~smae speed
[01:37] <Egghead3> pwnguin, ahh maybe in the xorg.conf, under screen section(s)?
[01:38] <Egghead3> there needs to be the option for the /root/passwd file
[01:39] <pwnguin> well, we're nearly done configuring it and im fine with the command line ;)
[01:39] <pwnguin> ssh ftw
[01:40] <Egghead3> lol oh yea, cantr get much done w/o the ssh or winscp for tyhat matter
[01:40] <Egghead3> so id have to say ssh/winscp ftw
[01:40] <Egghead3> lmao
[01:43] <npurciful> alright i am burnt out from trying to fix my audio, going to watch some tv
[01:43] <Egghead3> npurcifu, i feel your pain man :)
[01:45] <npurciful> it been rough, i had it working before i just cant rembemer how i fixed it ( my av reciever switch audio modes on new song, fast forward, etc and it causes about 2sec of silence) it is annoy to say the least
[01:46] <npurciful> and system bells, notification do here them there less than 2 seconds
[01:46] <npurciful> do not\
[01:47] <npurciful> ansd it is just PCM not ac3 or dts
[02:08] <mdwildcat04> I hve a quick question
[02:09] <mdwildcat04> how do I go about getting the cover art and info for my videos in mythvideo?
[02:15] <Egghead3> mdwildcat04, you put them in the directory under /var/lib/myth/pictures
[02:15] <pwnguin> can i get mythvideo to use stills from the video the way nautilus' gthumbnailer does?
[02:16] <mdwildcat04> is there an app or script to automaticly fetch them, like MusicBrainz Picard does for music?
[02:16] <Egghead3> donno about that penguin
[02:16] <Egghead3> mdwildcat04, you will need to edit the mysql database too
[02:16] <Egghead3> using the php myadmin
[02:18] <Egghead3> basically its a pain in the butt, i wish i knew of a good script
[02:19] <Egghead3> if i had the time id make one, but then again last time i used sql was with r-base, omg im old lmao
[02:53] <MythbuntuGuest11> hello
[02:54] <JoshT> Just curious, when is the next 8.04 release scheduled?
[02:56] <JoshT> ping
[02:57] <mdwildcat04> april 08
[02:58] <mdwildcat04> note, ubuntu version # corespond with their release date
[02:58] <mdwildcat04> (year).(month)
[02:58] <JoshT> o, ok i was wondering about anything realated to alphas, just curious about VNC fix and pvr-150 transmitter fix... sorry
[02:59] <JoshT> i am aware of the april/october deal, was curious about the alphas or in between fixes
[03:01] <mdwildcat04> oh, sorry
[03:02] <Egghead3> JoshT, have u heard of any work arounds for the vnc issues?
[03:03] <JoshT> no, i was checking here first
[03:03] <Egghead3> ahhh, me too
[03:03] <JoshT> there was a password issue with one of the pre-releases for 7.10 that got fixed up, but this is different
[03:04] <JoshT> on the pvr-150 transmitter issue i was wondering if it was mythbuntu related or lirc related
[03:04] <Egghead3> i need to tackle that issue too
[03:05] <JoshT> i use a .pl script to change  channels in 7.10, i never figured out if the lirc could transmit LOL
[03:06] <JoshT> and used a serial port changer that i bought for my directv box
[03:06] <superm1> JoshT, you're referring to the instability in vnc
[03:06] <superm1> as in a keypress crashes it?
[03:06] <JoshT> yessir
[03:06] <JoshT> how you been?
[03:06] <Egghead3> me too
[03:07] <JoshT> or a keypress crashes the session and it ends up at the login screen
[03:07] <superm1> eg bug 184225
[03:07] <JoshT> ok
[03:07] <superm1> and bug 180619
[03:07]  * superm1 kicks ubotu ?
[03:07] <superm1> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vnc4/+bug/184225
[03:07] <superm1> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vnc4/+bug/180619
[03:08] <superm1> don't have much of a plan yet for a solution
[03:08] <superm1> if you look closer at 184225, it's across the board on many distros
[03:08] <JoshT> i see that
[03:08] <Egghead3> ahh so its vncserver?
[03:08] <superm1> yeah
[03:08] <superm1> you can remove vnc4server
[03:08] <superm1> and install x11vnc
[03:08] <superm1> and use that
[03:09] <superm1> which that might end up having to be our "solution" for 8.04
[03:09] <JoshT> what about the pcr-150 transmit issue?
[03:09] <superm1> what's the issue?
[03:09] <superm1> not working?
[03:09] <JoshT> ooops pvr - meant
[03:09] <JoshT> yes, when i try to enable the transmit it crashes the control centre, i thnik cause lirc hangs?
[03:10] <superm1> this is with the latest versions of everything in 8.04?
[03:10] <JoshT> yah i was trying it out
[03:10] <superm1> did you file a crash report?
[03:10] <superm1> apport should catch it..
[03:11] <JoshT> i didnt because i read that there was something with pvr-150 that was unstable or not working 100%
[03:11] <Egghead3> i read the same on mythbuntu site
[03:11] <JoshT> "Rudimentary transmitter selection support is available for all devices but the pvr-150."
[03:12] <JoshT> was just curious if that is lirc related
[03:12] <Egghead3> have u tried installing w/o control panel?
[03:12] <superm1> well the missing piece of transmitter support is the transmit script and the firmware
[03:12] <JoshT> no i haven't
[03:12] <superm1> you shouldn't have been getting that issue
[03:12] <JoshT> good idea
[03:12] <superm1> with it hanging
[03:13] <superm1> so if you can reproduce it and file a report, that would be great
[03:13] <superm1> i'm hoping its just an instability of the pvr-150 module (there is a patch waiting to be applied to the kernel about it)
[03:13] <JoshT> i expand the terminal box and it hangs at lirc configuring and then the an crash is detected of the control centre, i will run it again and file a rport
[03:14] <JoshT> cool
[03:14] <superm1> thanks :)
[03:14] <Egghead3> superm1, do u know where the startup line is for vnc4server?
[03:14] <superm1> Egghead3, it starts with the X server
[03:14] <superm1> as in a module
[03:14] <superm1> take it out of xorg.conf
[03:14] <superm1> if you dont want it to start up
[03:14] <superm1> (thats what MCC does)
[03:15] <Egghead3> ahh cool, ill tryout that x11vnc :)
[03:15] <superm1> Egghead3, if you have good luck with it please let us know
[03:16] <superm1> we need an alternative solution :)
[03:18] <Egghead3> ok will do :)
[03:18] <superm1> it's either that or vino
[03:18] <superm1> as an option
[03:18] <superm1> but i'd hate to have to install that big gnome package vino lives in
[03:19] <Egghead3> in xorg.conf, it just calls out module option "vnc", is that a config file, if so u know where it lives?
[03:19] <tritium> superm1: I just ordered an HDHomeRun today, and a DB2 antenna.  I'm looking forward to their arrival!
[03:19] <superm1> tritium, wonderful :)
[03:19] <superm1> Egghead3, its not a config file
[03:19] <superm1> its an xorg module
[03:20] <tritium> :)
[03:20] <Egghead3> ahh, so if i uninstall vnc4server, and ilstall x11vnc, itll find x11vnc instead of vnc4server?
[03:21] <superm1> Egghead3, unfortunately not
[03:21] <superm1> nothing else but vnc4server provides vnc.so
[03:21] <superm1> that module
[03:21] <Egghead3> hehe didnt think so lol
[03:21] <superm1> so x11vnc is a process you would need to start on login
[03:21] <superm1> and experiment with options and stuff
[03:21] <superm1> (hence why we haven't switched over to it) - that has to all be explorer
[03:21] <superm1> explored
[03:22] <Egghead3> k, ill tuck it in rc.local and see it that flys :)
[03:22] <superm1> that won't fly unfort
[03:22] <superm1> it needs to go in after x starts
[03:23] <superm1> you can however place it in ~/.mythtv/session
[03:23] <Egghead3> :)
[03:23] <superm1> that file is launched at login if it exists and is executable
[04:08] <Egghead3> superm1, x11vnc worked great, i added it to the /etc/gdm/xsession startup script, thanks :)
[04:08] <superm1> Egghead3, did you have to configure much?
[04:08] <superm1> or how did you go about it?
[04:09] <Egghead3> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/x11vnc
[04:09] <Egghead3> this site walked me thru it
[04:10] <Egghead3> real easy, x11vnc doesnt seem as fast, but it might just be me
[04:10] <superm1> oh well this is good, it appears it can use the standard vncpasswd to generate a password
[04:10] <superm1> it is slower i'm pretty sure
[04:10] <superm1> make sure that your recordings still work well
[04:10] <superm1> and that performance of the session is good
[04:10] <superm1> because that was my biggest worry switching to this
[04:11] <Egghead3> my recordings?
[04:11] <superm1> yeah
[04:11] <superm1> like from the tv
[04:11] <superm1> try to play them bak
[04:11] <superm1> back
[04:11] <superm1> and make sure they dont skip
[04:11] <superm1> cut out etc
[04:11] <Egghead3> never could play video across vnc
[04:12] <superm1> well yeah that wont change but i'm saying that having the x11vnc process running may have negative effects
[04:12] <Egghead3> using mythvideo, never tried watcing a recording
[04:12] <superm1> when you just try to watch them "normally"
[04:12] <superm1> so just make sure
[04:12] <Egghead3> ahhh ic
[04:12] <Egghead3> well, i cant now, mythbackend is broke too :(
[04:12] <superm1> so you have x11vnc installed but not vnc4server at all right now right?
[04:13] <Egghead3> yes, unistalled in mmc, then using synaptic installed x11vnc
[04:13] <superm1> okay great -can you check one more thing then
[04:13] <superm1> do you have a /usr/bin/vncpasswd?
[04:13] <Egghead3> sure
[04:13] <superm1> and if you do, can you do a:
[04:13] <superm1> ls -l /usr/bin/vncpasswd
[04:13] <superm1> and see where it points
[04:14] <Egghead3> its there but just sez elf
[04:14] <superm1> not ld
[04:14] <superm1> ls
[04:15] <Egghead3> the passwd work im using for x11vnc is in /root/.vnc/passwd
[04:15] <superm1> right, i'm just looking to see if this registered with the alternatives system
[04:15] <superm1> if it did, then that will mean very little source changes necessary to use it
[04:16] <Egghead3> not sure what ld vs ld means
[04:16] <Egghead3> oops ld vs ls
[04:16] <superm1> just tyle
[04:17] <superm1> ls -l /usr/bin/vncpasswd
[04:17] <superm1> er type that, not tyle it
[04:17] <superm1> and see the output
[04:17] <Egghead3> ahh ic hehe
[04:17] <superm1> i think you just mistyped it the first time and typed "ld -l /usr/bin/vncpasswd"
[04:18] <Egghead3> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    27 2008-02-23 21:43 /usr/bin/vncpasswd -> /etc/alternatives/vncpasswd
[04:18] <superm1> okay
[04:18] <superm1> so do the same thing on
[04:18] <superm1> /etc/alternatives/vncpasswd
[04:18] <Egghead3> ok
[04:18] <superm1> and see where that one points
[04:20] <Egghead3> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2008-02-23 21:42 /etc/alternatives/vncpasswd -> /usr/bin/vnc4passwd
[04:20] <Egghead3> and so on?
[04:20] <superm1> well so according to that you still have a vnc4 package installed
[04:20] <superm1> hm
[04:20] <superm1> okay that will have to be sorted out then still
[04:20] <superm1> we'll see what ends up being the solution
[04:20] <Egghead3> well in synaptic it wasnt listed as installed
[04:20] <superm1> but for now this should work for you at least :)
[04:21] <Egghead3> hehe thanks for that :)
[04:22] <Egghead3> as long as i have u here, my mythbackend is broke too
[04:22] <superm1> how?
[04:23] <Egghead3> well at boot up it starts the config script, then sez it cant fine the upnp database
[04:23] <superm1> is this a secondary backend?
[04:23] <superm1> or primary
[04:23] <Egghead3> primary
[04:23] <Egghead3> it also happens when trying to run frontend
[04:23] <superm1> have you checked sql tables for consistency problems?
[04:24] <superm1> eg repair/optimize
[04:25] <Egghead3> no, but it started right after i let it update, then when firing up front end it asked to redo the database to another build level or somthing like that
[04:25] <superm1> do the consistency check then
[04:25] <Egghead3> i tried running the optimize script in the contrib directory, but it failed
[04:26] <superm1> run it from mcc
[04:26] <superm1> that should work
[04:26] <superm1> also make sure your disk(s) aren't full
[04:26] <Egghead3> ok till try that
[04:27] <Egghead3> another thing , it seems that mythbackend is running, and itll spin the hd for like 5 mins stop and do it again every now and again
[04:27] <superm1> see what the results of the optimizing are first before you worry about that
[04:27] <Egghead3> ok
[04:32] <Egghead3> root@myth1-desktop:~# vnc4server --help
[04:32] <Egghead3> The program 'vnc4server' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[04:32] <Egghead3> i just check to see if vnc4server was still there
[04:34] <Egghead3> but anyway, i optimized database in mcc, and than ran frontend, it still end up with same error, cant find upnp database, then finally it sez cant logon to database, wrong password?
[04:34] <superm1> Egghead3, i found its from vnc4common
[04:34] <superm1> not a worry
[04:34] <Egghead3> ahh
[04:34] <superm1> Egghead3, restart mysql and then restart the backend after optimizing
[04:34] <Egghead3> i think vnc4common was still install as far as synaptic saw it
[04:35] <superm1> and then check the log (/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log)
[04:35] <superm1> yeah it is
[04:35] <superm1> its a dependency for a few things
[04:35] <Egghead3> ok
[04:35] <Egghead3> how do i restart backend?
[04:36] <superm1> /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart
[04:37] <Egghead3> thanks
[04:38] <Egghead3> holy, my mythback end log is 750mbytes
[04:39] <superm1> so is that perhaps your issue :)?
[04:39] <Egghead3> i donno, kinda large id think
[04:40] <Egghead3> can i just delete it?
[04:41] <Egghead3> thats probably what its writing to all this time
[04:41] <superm1> tail the end of it
[04:41] <superm1> tail -n 1000 file
[04:41] <superm1> or so
[04:41] <superm1> to see whats up
[04:41] <Egghead3> ok
[04:43] <Egghead3> hmm, i thinkits a password problem
[04:45] <superm1> dont be quick to expect that to be it
[04:45] <superm1> especially if it was working before
[04:45] <superm1> you didnt change the password, and neither did anything else
[04:46] <Egghead3> umm id like to say that, but yes i did change the password :(
[04:46] <superm1> okay well then have fun :)
[04:46] <Egghead3> thought id be easier to have it somthing i could rember , lol
[04:47] <Egghead3> well its a new install so loosing the database ist a worrie
[04:48] <Egghead3> whats the easiest way to dump the database?
[04:48] <superm1> dump as in drop it?
[04:49] <Egghead3> yes
[04:49] <Egghead3> will deleting it, setup to make a new one, with new password?
[04:50] <Egghead3> will deleting it, cause mythtv setup to make a new one, with new password?
[04:52] <superm1> easiest way is to remove mythtv-database and mysql-server-*
[04:52] <superm1> via a purge
[04:52] <superm1> apt-get remove --purge PACKGE
[04:52] <superm1> and then reinstall them
[04:52] <Egghead3> cool, sounds good
[05:20] <Egghead3> well tried all that, purged and reinstalled, but same thing
[05:20] <Egghead3> its wierd the log keeps growing, as if somthing keeps running the mythconfig script, same thing over and over
[05:29] <Egghead3> well time for bed, superm1 thanks for all your help :) you the man!
[05:29] <superm1> no prob, night
[06:10] <msfree> running 7.10 the internal player and mplayer give blocky techno colored playback but xine works fine with a -V opengl has anyone seen this before?
[07:06] <pwnguin> is there seriously no way to add your own rss feeds to the news thingy?
[07:43] <pwnguin> fun. i set up a new folder for games in /var/lib/mythtv
[07:43] <pwnguin> and set it on share
[07:44] <pwnguin> and now the others wont show (on share)
[13:34] <DiggThis> hi all
[13:34] <DiggThis> was wondering if anyone knows how to 'fit' mythtv display to a 16:10 monitor? cant work it out
[13:38] <directhex|work> not sure i understand the question
[13:39] <DiggThis> ok well ill explain
[13:40] <DiggThis> my monitor is 16:10 aspect ratio and runs at 1680x1050 resolution but when i start mythbuntu and watch tv it defaults to 16:9 ratio and therefore appears letterboxed on my screen
[13:40] <DiggThis> i want it to fill the screen with no cropping
[13:43] <DiggThis> anyone?
[14:00] <directhex|work> yeah
[14:00] <directhex|work> somewhere in the frontend settings you can force 4:3 or 16:9 aspect
[14:01] <DiggThis> thx but no go with that setting
[14:01] <DiggThis> any other suggestions?
[14:06] <directhex|work> fiddle with DisplaySize in xorg.conf, to mess with your DPI, to make mkyth think you're 19:9 not 16:10
[14:07] <DiggThis> k
[14:07] <DiggThis> ill try that
[14:07] <DiggThis> thx
[14:40] <Rigolo> good afternoon

[21:32] <huhlig> I get sound but even with a poweramp at max and alsamixer at max its hard to hear
[21:34] <directhex> huhlig, try changing your frontend to use alsa instead of oss
[21:34] <huhlig> it is using alsa
[21:35] <directhex> the default mixer in the frontend is alsa:default ?
[21:38] <huhlig> im not even there
[21:39] <huhlig> I am at the command line trying to get it to play

[21:57] <huhlig> any idea how I can crank up the volume
[21:57] <huhlig> ?
[23:15] <sslashes> any idea what the module name that would handle loading the xvideo extension(s) in xorg is/are?
[23:18] <staind9383> where can I get the kernel docs that contain the  get_dvb_firmware script?  linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic doesnt have it.  unless of course i am looking in the wrong place
[23:19] <directhex> -headers- is just headers
[23:20] <staind9383> o
[23:20] <directhex> try linux-doc-2.6.22
[23:21] <staind9383> thx
[23:21] <directhex> look in /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.22/Documentation/dvb/
[23:24] <staind9383> no linux-doc in there
[23:25] <staind9383> i got it, thx
[23:51] <sslashes> xvmc: anyone up to offering sa crash course for me? 1) i need to figure out if i need to do anything special in xorg.conf to load xvmc; 2) mythtv and xine are already setup to use it
[23:52] <sslashes> i have an nvidia 8600 GTS using ubuntu's package of the nvidia proprietary drivers
[23:52] <huhlig> could someone help me with a quick sound problem, I have a sound blaster audigy LS and it has nearly no volume now(Just upgraded ubuntu), If I turn all the volumes way up it you can hear it but barely.
[23:53] <sslashes> huhlig: have you fiddled with alsamixer?
[23:53] <huhlig> sslashes, yes
[23:55] <directhex> sslashes, if you have a cpu to match a 8600, you don't need ot want xvmc
[23:55] <huhlig> volumes are at max
[23:55] <huhlig> digital output is off
[23:57] <npurciful> hey can someone type my nick
