[00:00] <gr33n7007h> How do I check what soundcard I have?
[00:00] <LordHaVoK> hotline client
[00:02] <genii> gr33n7007h: Either: lspci -nn| grep Audio    or: sudo lshw -C multimedia
[00:03] <gr33n7007h> genii, let me check
[00:04] <gr33n7007h> genii, is this it =>   00:1b.0 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio [8086:3b56] (rev 05)
[00:04] <genii> LordHaVoK: This channel is reserved for support of Ubuntu ... please feel free to /join #ubuntu-offtopic and discuss other topics there!
[00:04] <genii> gr33n7007h: Yup, that's it. The 8086:3b56 part is the vendor:device code which can be very useful for looking up driver
[00:05] <gr33n7007h> genii, Thanks alot ;)
[00:05] <genii> gr33n7007h: You're welcome

[00:28] <ryan_> How do i remove GRUB?
[00:28] <Cygnus_X1> Hi I've got probably a pretty simple question.
[00:28] <X-Sleepy-X> ryan_: Why would you want to remove it?
[00:28] <Cygnus_X1> How do i see all my drivers in ubuntu
[00:28] <turpin> ubunt rules
[00:29] <ryan_> X-Sleepy-X: Because I only have ubuntu on my computer
[00:29] <Cygnus_X1> like the Ubuntu equivalent to windows Device Manager?
[00:29] <genii> X-Sleepy-X: Please don't call channel operators with !ops unless there is some emergency in the channel which requires intervention.
[00:29] <ryan_> I rather it boot into Ubuntu
[00:29] <David-A> Cygnus_X1: lsmod lists kernel modules, some of which are drivers
[00:29] <turpin> i have ubuntu for years. But I have the impression that 13.04 is not a very stable release
[00:30] <wilee-nilee> Cygnus_X1, gparted
[00:31] <X-Sleepy-X> genii: ok, sorry. i thought criminal activities would count as such...
[00:31] <tsimpson> ryan_: grub is used to boot ubuntu, so removing it would leave you with a non-booting system
[00:31] <wilee-nilee> Cygnus_X1, Can't be run on partitions in use though.
[00:31] <tsimpson> X-Sleepy-X: they were already killed by the bot
[00:32] <ryan_> tsimpson: BUT i rather it boot into it than selecting it all the time it's annoying
[00:32] <Cygnus_X1> okay, i want to see how its running the audio drivers
[00:32] <X-Sleepy-X> tsimpson: oops, i missed that. :S
[00:32] <tsimpson> ryan_: it should boot ubuntu by default
[00:32] <wilee-nilee> Cygnus_X1, sorry about that I saw disk maanger my bad
[00:32] <ryan_> tsimpson: I know right
[00:32] <IdleOne> X-Sleepy-X: We do appreciate you looking out though :)
[00:32] <tsimpson> ryan_: you can not boot directly into an OS without a boot-loader, grub is a boot-loader
[00:33] <ryan_> tsimpson: it's just annoying
[00:33] <Cygnus_X1> i just don't know how to find my drivers list
[00:33] <wilee-nilee> ryan_, You trying to make it inaccessible?
[00:34] <X-Sleepy-X> ryan_: which version of ubuntu are you running?
[00:34] <ryan_> wilee-nilee: how?
[00:34] <ryan_> X-Sleepy-X: 13.05
[00:34] <ryan_> X-Sleepy-X: 13.04
[00:34] <wilee-nilee> ryan_, hard to answer a question formed by a question.
[00:34] <wilee-nilee> your intensions
[00:35] <wilee-nilee> intentions was the goal
[00:35] <ryan_> wilee-nilee: shh :DD
[00:35] <Cygnus_X1> you guys think its a better idea to learn to figure out Ubuntu again on the  regular version compared to Ubuntu Studio?
[00:35] <wilee-nilee> ryan_, Not sure never needed to shh
[00:35] <tsimpson> ryan_: you can set the timeout to 0 in /etc/default/grub
[00:36] <ryan_> wilee-nilee: lol:P
[00:36] <ryan_> tsimpson: how??
[00:36] <nero> Cygnus_X1
[00:36] <nero> Cygnus_X1 respond.
[00:36] <Cygnus_X1> hello
[00:36] <wilee-nilee> tsimpson, Okay if you can still bring up grub with shift a catastrophe if not and need to.
[00:36] <tsimpson> ryan_: look at the file, it has a line starting with GRUB_TIMEOUT, should be pretty obvious
[00:37] <ryan_> tsimpson: I ain't a bloody programmer now AM I
[00:37] <tsimpson> ryan_: did you look?
[00:37] <ryan_> tsimpson: wait a min
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> tsimpson, setting the timeout is only good if you can still get grub.
[00:38] <wilee-nilee> to 0
[00:38] <tsimpson> wilee-nilee: they said they want it gone, that makes it gone
[00:38] <tsimpson> you can set it to any value, including 1 for instance
[00:38] <wilee-nilee> tsimpson, So does a hammer, bad advice.
[00:38] <X-Sleepy-X> should be gone by default shouldn't it?
[00:38] <tsimpson> wilee-nilee: even without the menu you can still get into it
[00:39] <Cygnus_X1> you guys think its a better idea to learn to figure out Ubuntu again on the  regular version compared to Ubuntu Studio? ?
[00:39] <ryan_> why isn't it not working
[00:40] <X-Sleepy-X> ryan_: after you have made a backup of /etc/default/grub and edited the original you will need to run the command: sudo update-grub
[00:41] <ryan_> X-Sleepy-X: I can't term is giving me errors
[00:41] <David-A> Cygnus_X1: I don't know Ubu Studio, but they are probably very alike under the hood.
[00:41] <wilee-nilee> Cygnus_X1, We don't do polls here that is a personal thang. ;)
[00:41] <X-Sleepy-X> ryan_: what errors is it giving you?
[00:42] <ryan_> error on line 6
[00:42] <Cygnus_X1> ahhh yeah,  i think its more of me not being able to find how to get to see all my drivers easily like in older version it was just in setting s
[00:44] <X-Sleepy-X> ryan_: could you paste the output of the following here http://paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link after? command: cat /etc/default/grub
[00:46] <Cygnus_X1> know is there a huge difference installing on a ext4 partition compared to ntfs?
[00:46] <Ben64> you can't install on ntfs
[00:47] <Cygnus_X1> i think you can, it was listed in in the format setup stuff on the install.
[00:47] <Ben64> nope, can't
[00:47] <genii> ntfs can't preserve *nix permissions
[00:48] <Cygnus_X1> okay my bad, can i setup a 40gb partition ext4 on a drive with a ntfs partition and have everything be okay?
[00:48] <export> so hi i have a question but its about xchat specifically...where should i ask that?
[00:48] <David-A> Cygnus_X1: you can have different filesystems on different partition on the same drive, yes
[00:49] <Cygnus_X1> okay thanks, my main hdd pooped on me and i dont want to mess up the 1 tb of data i used on a storage drive by mistake.
[00:49] <Ben64> export: theres #xchat
[00:49] <Cygnus_X1> Now i can do that in gparted and then just install to it?
[00:50] <export> thanks Ben64! :)
[00:50] <David-A> Cygnus_X1: but the system partition (/) must have unix compatible permissions (and preferably /home and /boot too I would guess, if they are separate)
[00:50] <Ben64> Cygnus_X1: yeah, or you can have the installer resize and stuff for you
[00:50] <utusan> you have to shrink ntfs first and then use gparted to format the free space
[00:50] <Cygnus_X1> okay thanks
[00:51] <Cygnus_X1> okay one more, i still cant figure out where to find all my drivers
[00:52] <utusan> I think it's best to shrink ntfs from inside windoze
[00:52] <wilee-nilee> always
[00:53]  * X-Sleepy-X yawns
[00:53] <X-Sleepy-X> Good night!
[00:59] <numberto> Is there any ap to manage vcf files?
[01:05] <coolstar> what is the best SSH file transfer client for ubuntu?
[01:07] <coolstar> nvm, found out I could just "Connect to Server" in the File Manager
[01:10] <haneefmubarak> xlear
[01:19] <Cygnus_X1> okay, how do i access my audio driver settings?
[01:22] <adamk> Cygnus_X1: What settings, specifically?  Most can probably be accessed through pavucontrol, which you will likely need to install.
[01:23] <MidnightNinja> anyone here able to help a newish ubuntu user through an odd install?
[01:23] <Kitt3n> !ask | MidnightNinja
[01:23] <Cygnus_X1> ive got an older Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS with the front panel. and i dont know how to set the outputs up
[01:24] <MidnightNinja> sorry didnt want to clutter up the channel :)
[01:25] <MidnightNinja> Im having trouble installing ubuntu on a lenovo y510p sli--namely, I can get the computer to grub, but ubuntu boots into a black screen with a blinking cursor--setting nomodeset in the kernel options in grub also boots into the same thing.
[01:25] <MidnightNinja> Im sure it has something to do with the dual Nvidia GPU's but I can't boot into a command line
[01:27] <MidnightNinja> Basically, I'm utterly lost and have no clue how to get into a usable gui...does anyone know how I can get into a GUI?
[01:27] <adamk> MidnightNinja: If you hit control+alt+f2, do you get a prompt to login at the console?
[01:27] <MidnightNinja> ctrl+alt+f2 at grub?
[01:28] <adamk> After the computer boots up...
[01:29] <MidnightNinja> I got something to flash on the screen with ctrl+alt+f2-but the computer goes back to the black screen with blinking indicator
[01:29] <Ben64> !nomodeset | MidnightNinja
[01:30] <Guest729> .
[01:31] <adamk> Ben64: He said he tried that already...
[01:31] <adamk> MidnightNinja: Right after grub, when the computer starts to boot, hit the 'esc' key and see if you can see the kernel messages scrolling by.
[01:31] <Guest729> any one know a secure dns daemon like unbound and how to properly set it up
[01:32] <Ben64> adamk: ah didn't see that
[01:32] <MidnightNinja> Even with nomodeset, I get a bunch of messages, each one with an [OK] next to it--except the second reload cups
[01:32] <MidnightNinja> then black screen with blinking cursor
[01:32] <adamk> Passing nomodeset is never a fix, just a possible temporary work around, and a crappy one at that.
[01:33] <MidnightNinja> so is there another way to get to a login screen?
[01:33] <ProLine> Hello all - I'm having some troubles reaching the network using my wifi adapter and Ubuntu will someone help?
[01:33] <wilee-nilee> MidnightNinja, This a dualboot, and if so, with what?
[01:34] <MidnightNinja> the dreaded windows 8
[01:34] <adamk> I just asked you to do something...  Hit the "esc" key right after grub, when your computer starts to boot. Do you see the kernel messages scroll by?
[01:34] <wilee-nilee> !uefi | MidnightNinja
[01:34] <adamk> MidnightNinja: Did it every work correct? Did you install from a live CD?
[01:34] <MidnightNinja> im doing the kernel message thing now
[01:35] <MidnightNinja> and yes, i installed from a live cd, which booted
[01:35] <wilee-nilee> MidnightNinja, Take a look here, the thread author is on m-f us daytime concentrating on uefi and is the best help around. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295
[01:36] <MidnightNinja> I see kernel messages scrolling by
[01:36] <wilee-nilee> I would not bother with the irc and uefi, I have rarely seen good help, and one user not on who knows anything.
[01:36] <wilee-nilee> just my 2 cents. ;)
[01:36] <adamk> We don't even know if this is a uefi problem, though.
[01:36] <MidnightNinja> true,true
[01:37] <wilee-nilee> adamk, Doesn't matter, your first question is are you backed up.
[01:37] <adamk> Clearly it's booting Ubuntu...  Sounds like X isn't starting, which I don't personally see being related to UEFI.
[01:37] <MidnightNinja> I assume since I got it booted and grub installed that uefi was no longer an issue, and the new issue is the nvdia drivers
[01:37] <yebyen> have you tried changing vt's when you reach the screen with the blinking cursor?
[01:37] <yebyen> ctrl+alt+f1 ctrl+alt+f2?
[01:37] <wilee-nilee> clearly, lol
[01:37] <yebyen> just jumping in, check the obvious things first lol
[01:38] <adamk> MidnightNinja: So if you hit control+alt+f2, it switches to a login prompt, but then goes black again with just the blinking cursor?
[01:38] <MidnightNinja> yeah
[01:38] <MidnightNinja> it quickly went to a text based login
[01:38] <MidnightNinja> then back to black screen with blinking cursor
[01:38] <yebyen> that is odd!
[01:38] <adamk> MidnightNinja: Same thing with control+alt+f3?
[01:38] <yebyen> is the blinking cursor at the top of the screen?
[01:39] <MidnightNinja> yeah. top left
[01:39] <Faggot69> ~#OpNewBlood-es
[01:39] <Faggot69> join/ #OpNewBlood-es
[01:39] <MidnightNinja> ctrl alt f3 on black screen with cursor does nothing, let me try on boot
[01:39] <ProLine> I'm using YUMI to try out various distros from USB- BackTrack 5r3, Ubuntu Gnome, and Debian. None of them except MAYBE BackTrack seem to have the proper driver for my Dell Latitude 420 wifi adapter. Is there someone out there that might be able to help me out? Can't get online to do any hunting around for driver updates...
[01:40] <MidnightNinja> should i keep trying nomodeset?
[01:40] <Faggot69> join/ ~#OpNewBlood-es
[01:40] <yebyen> ProLine: if you can get on a network by plugging in, the driver jockey should be able to help you...
[01:40] <adamk> MidnightNinja: You said you already tried that, right?
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> ProLine, Ubuntu support only. I would use the multisystem loader
[01:40] <MidnightNinja> yeah, but should i boot with that and try the ctrl+alt+f3?
[01:40] <adamk> MidnightNinja: Not at the moment.
[01:41] <Faggot69>  /join #opnewblood-es
[01:41] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: f1 through f6 are ttyS0 through ttyS5 (right?)
[01:41] <Kitt3n> MidnightNinja, are you using a Nvidia card?
[01:41] <yebyen> they should all be text login consoles
[01:41] <ProLine> I thought YUMI is a multisystem loader :|
[01:41] <MidnightNinja> same thing, screen flashed and back to the black screen
[01:41] <adamk> MidnightNinja: If you type your username, does it show up?
[01:41] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: do you know how to use the sysrq key?
[01:41] <ProLine> I cant plug in at the moment... meaning for the next x number of months
[01:41] <wilee-nilee> ProLine, My bad you need drivers, however this is ubuntu support you might try ##linux for anything else.
[01:42] <MidnightNinja> yebyen: no clue, im new to this method of installation
[01:42] <MidnightNinja> adamk:i cant type it fast enough, the screen goes away quickly
[01:42] <ProLine> Ubuntu is one of the distros i'm trying to get connected 13.04 to be specific
[01:42] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: sysrq key is something that's enabled on a kernel level (or disabled, the most helpful sysrq combo is alt+sysrq+r which I believe to be disabled in newer ubuntu kernels)
[01:43] <wilee-nilee> ProLine, I found Yumi to be problematic with contig fraggs
[01:43] <ProLine> ok
[01:43] <adamk> MidnightNinja: Very odd..  Do you know how to boot off the live cd, mount the current Ubuntu installation, and pastebin the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file?
[01:43] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: that's the unRaw combo, which should steal back the keyboard input from any rogue X11 process that has hijacked it and won't give it back
[01:43] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: if it's supported in your kernel
[01:43] <wilee-nilee> multisystem is run from linux though not windows
[01:44] <ProLine> lost
[01:44] <MidnightNinja> adamk:I am unsure of how to mount the current ubuntu installation
[01:44] <wilee-nilee> you can get a contig defragger if it is part of the picture.
[01:44] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: the sysrq key is most likely located beneath printscreen key
[01:44] <yebyen> (you would press shift+sysrq to use printscreen key)
[01:44] <MidnightNinja> yebyen: you are speaking way over my head--I have the sysrq key, but what process does it capture?
[01:45] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: you can tell the kernel is not frozen by doing some sysrq combos
[01:45] <MidnightNinja> adamk:I am unsure of how to mount the current ubuntu installation from a live cd--how would i do that?
[01:45] <MidnightNinja> huh, let me try that then
[01:45] <yebyen> for example, alt+sysrq+s will issue a sync command, you should see the hard drive activity light flash briefly while any unprocessed writes are written back to disk
[01:46] <yebyen> alt+sysrq+b will dangerously reboot your system immediately (ignoring any writes that haven't been processed yet)
[01:46] <MidnightNinja> I got the ubuntu splash screen to flash now, but still black screen
[01:47] <yebyen> alt+sysrq+u is a good one to use between those, Sync...Unmount...reBoot... if all of that reboots your machine then your kernel has not panicked
[01:47] <yebyen> then at least you know that much, you can probably ssh into your machine to perform some diagnosis
[01:47] <MidnightNinja> i got an emergency remount from that command
[01:48] <yebyen> good
[01:48] <yebyen> so your kernel is live and you are just having some display issues
[01:48] <wilee-nilee> ProLine, Hard to really decern what your preobles are is it drivers for the OS's or the usb not working, Any way if it is the usb and you have access to linux, try this. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/
[01:48] <wilee-nilee> problems*
[01:49] <yebyen> do you by any chance have multiple display ports? a vga, a dvi, maybe another dvi, a displayport?
[01:49] <yebyen> it's possible that you're not plugged into the primary one, and your display is active on another screen
[01:49] <MidnightNinja> is that possible on a laptop?
[01:50] <yebyen> oh much less likely i suppose
[01:50] <yebyen> you could try plugging another screen in and see if it helps
[01:51] <yebyen> is it called bumblebee?  (the nvidia/intel hybrid driver thing) do you have that?
[01:51] <MidnightNinja> how would I know if its bumblebee?
[01:51] <MidnightNinja> my computer is an i7 with dual nvdia geforce
[01:51] <yebyen> i'm honestly not sure, i don't have one and i'm not sure that's what it's called
[01:51] <MidnightNinja> 750ms
[01:51] <MidnightNinja> lol okay
[01:51] <yebyen> good bet though
[01:52] <MidnightNinja> hmm.. is there anyway I can tell the system to just boot a command line? nothing more?
[01:52] <yebyen> you probably need the proprietary drivers; i'm not sure how you'd install them over an ssh session
[01:52] <MidnightNinja> im betting that is it
[01:52] <yebyen> you can always try booting into single user mode
[01:52] <yebyen> or rescue mode might be the same thing
[01:52] <MidnightNinja> how would I do that?
[01:53] <adamk> MidnightNinja: This never worked after your install from the LiveCD, correct?  So sshd is not going to be configured...
[01:53] <yebyen> i think you can do it just editing your grub boot command adding 'single' to the end of the line
[01:53] <yebyen> after the various linux kernel options
[01:53] <yebyen> press 'e' at the boot menu
[01:54] <MidnightNinja> so at the end of the linux line add single?
[01:54] <yebyen> i believe so
[01:54] <MidnightNinja> should I also add nomodeset? or should i ignore that?
[01:54] <yebyen> it should dump you at a root prompt
[01:54] <ProLine> well, Is the Ubuntu channel not where I should be asking for help connecting to the WAP here? Aren't the drivers part of Ubuntu ?
[01:54] <yebyen> you should probably not need nomodeset but if the issue is with plymouth it may be persistent even without X11
[01:55] <ProLine> I mean if thats my problem
[01:55] <MidnightNinja> alright let me try it
[01:56] <yankov> gosh, why is it so hard to remap ctrl+c/ctrl+v behavior? any hints?
[01:56] <yankov> should be something trivial, but no
[01:56] <MidnightNinja> adamk:correct- it never worked after install
[01:57] <yebyen> adamk: it doesn't enable sshd after a regular install?  i think you might be right :\
[01:57] <JohnMark66> Hello everyone
[01:57] <yebyen> pretty sure my laptop did not have sshd enabled until i set it up
[01:58] <MidnightNinja> alright added single, getting text down screen and black screen
[01:58] <MidnightNinja> no cursor
[01:58] <JohnMark66> Is there anyone in here who can tell me how to install Ubuntu 13.04 on my HP 2000 laptop ? It is running win 8 ....
[01:58] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: you may have better luck using a text mode advanced install and adding what you need until it breaks again
[01:58] <ProLine> I tried ##Linux and it says  "Cannot send to channel" what now?
[01:59] <sebsebseb> hi
[01:59] <ProLine> hi
[01:59] <yebyen> ProLine: you must need to be authed with nickserv to have voice in that channel
[01:59] <sebsebseb> ProLine: you need to be registered on the network and logged in, before you can send  messages there etc
[01:59] <genii> !register | ProLine
[01:59] <ProLine> lol ok register I must thatnks
[01:59] <MidnightNinja> yebyen: so there is no way to boot into a normal install?
[01:59] <ProLine> thanks*
[01:59] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: you can try rescue mode from the boot menu, that should be an option too
[02:00] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: i'm surprised that single user mode did not work
[02:00] <MidnightNinja> yebyen: I knew it would be a challenge, but I didnt think it would be this bad
[02:01] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: the unfortunate thing about having decently new hardware is that it's going to have dodgy support :\
[02:01] <yebyen> especially when it comes to nvidia
[02:02] <MidnightNinja> yebeyen: I know that is the case, but I thought it might be different since the y500 has similar hardware and i see that people have gotten it to work
[02:03] <yebyen> MidnightNinja: you are installing the latest release, right? 13.04
[02:03] <MidnightNinja> yep
[02:03] <yebyen> :\
[02:04] <MidnightNinja> heres what I found online, I dont know if i have to start over to try it though
[02:04] <MidnightNinja> http://askubuntu.com/questions/272570/unable-to-install-ubuntu-on-lenovo-y500
[02:04] <maslen> Could someone help? After running `make install` for glib, Ubuntu no longer allows me to build programs that require glib: http://pastebin.com/eVJMNSnk

[02:05] <wilee-nilee> maslen, This 13.10?
[02:05] <maslen> 13.04
[02:05] <maslen> I wasn't aware there was a 13.10 meant for dev
[02:06] <wilee-nilee> cool, diffrent channel for 13.10 the development.
[02:06] <maslen> What is that?
[02:06] <wilee-nilee> maslen, Next release in development
[02:06] <maslen> No, I mean what is the channel.
[02:06] <MidnightNinja> yebyen: im going to nuke my partition and try that tomorrow...its getting way too late :(
[02:07] <wilee-nilee> Doh sorry #ubuntu+1
[02:07] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[02:07] <admi> how to adjust laptop brightness beyond the minimum?
[02:07] <maslen> wilee-nilee: Does it automatically updates packages as they're updates as well?
[02:08] <maslen> as they're updated*
[02:10] <saiarcot895> maslen: packages are frequently updated in the Saucy branch, so you could say yes
[02:12] <devslash> if i download the ubuntu 13.04 desktop iso can i boot it as a live cd ?
[02:13] <wilee-nilee> maslen, 13.10 has updates on the way to release and daily iso's.
[02:13] <wilee-nilee> devslash, ubuntu on a dvd to big for a cd, a usb is commonly used.
[02:14] <wilee-nilee> yes it boots and will install
[02:14] <wilee-nilee> if you decide to. ;)
[02:14] <devslash> no
[02:14] <devslash> i dont want to install
[02:14] <wilee-nilee> it will run live
[02:15] <devslash> i just want to boot as a live so i can extend my partition
[02:15] <wilee-nilee> I wondered, devslash
[02:15] <devslash> ?
[02:15] <wilee-nilee> devslash, Yes the iso will run live not install unless you want to.
[02:15] <wilee-nilee> on a dvd or a usb
[02:16] <devslash> does it matter if i get a 32 or 64 bit iso if im only booting it as a live cd ?
[02:16] <pfifo> 13.04 wont fit on a cd?
[02:16] <devslash> i cant remember if i installed 64 bit
[02:16] <Random832> devslash: well the 64 bit one won't run on a 32 bit processor
[02:16] <devslash> im writing it to a flash drive
[02:16] <wilee-nilee> devslash, Only with your computers limitations is all, whether it is 64 bit or not.
[02:16] <devslash> so space isnt a concern
[02:17] <devslash> yea
[02:17] <wilee-nilee> devslash, Nope the usb is all it needs, you can add persistence if you want to save stuff.
[02:17] <Random832> if you intended to run stuff from your original install in a chroot, you'd need 64-bit if it is 64-bit, but just for running gparted you should be fine
[02:17] <jerkface03> I'm switching from windows to ubuntu. Can anyone recommend a backup tool that I can use to back up the files on my windows machine to a usb drive that I can reference once linux is installed?
[02:17] <jerkface03> So for example, I want to be able to move over my thunderbird settings when I switch
[02:17] <Random832> jerkface03: xcopy
[02:17] <Random832> the trick is knowing where the files are
[02:18] <jerkface03> Random832: what about duplicati?
[02:18] <Random832> i was mainly giving a non-serious answer
[02:18] <saiarcot895> pfifo: I think they said they'll later make it fit on a CD
[02:18] <wilee-nilee> jerkface03, I would dualboot to start with.
[02:18] <Random832> dealing with files is one thing, but i don't know if there's anything that will take your thunderbird profile etc
[02:18] <Random832> which goes in a different place on windows or linux
[02:19] <Random832> for thunderbird specifically someone asked this on ask ubuntu: http://askubuntu.com/questions/84996/migrating-thunderbird-profile-from-windows-7-to-ubuntu
[02:19] <wilee-nilee> you can use the thunderbird config in ubuntu from windows
[02:19] <devslash> is gparted included in the iso ?
[02:19] <Random832> but you need to think specifically about each program you use
[02:19] <Random832> devslash: it was last time I tried it
[02:19] <saiarcot895> devslash: yes, that's standard
[02:20] <devslash> ok
[02:20] <devslash> thanks
[02:20] <wilee-nilee> saiarcot895, Not any plans to shrink the iso to a dvd just the opposite
[02:21] <wilee-nilee> oops cd
[02:21] <pfifo> They should remove all the desktop stuff from the livecd, leaving only the install stuff. and publish a livedvd for use as a live system
[02:21] <matematikaadit> I wanna say thanks to nero. thanks you very much, now my unity back as before.
[02:21] <wilee-nilee> other ubuntu releses like lubuntu fit xubunut might
[02:23] <adv> Hi all...
[02:24] <adv> n e way to recover rm(mmed) file
[02:24] <adv> single file
[02:25] <SonikkuAmerica> !u
[02:25] <adv> Hi, Deleted a file from terminal with rm command, is there any way to restore it...
[02:26] <Kardos> adv: http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/
[02:26] <Kardos> it's not guaranteed obviously
[02:26] <yebyen> the more recently you have rm'ed it, the better your chances
[02:26] <adv> Thanks Krados: but i want to restore single file from specific director... could you plz .. help with details
[02:26] <pfifo> adv, use a hexeditor on an image made with dd of the partition it was on, scan throught it and find your file's fragments, then reassemble.
[02:27] <yebyen> good advice to not download anything until you have it restored
[02:27] <yebyen> which will make it hard luck to get extundelete installed
[02:27] <matematikaadit> how to move min/max/close to the left in unity (ubuntu 13.04)? I've searched but all example just show up for gnome-shell.
[02:27] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, dconf-editor
[02:29] <yebyen> matematikaadit: if you have any interest in gnome-shell, i can recommend the gnome 3.8 from ppa very highly
[02:29] <yebyen> not to redirect the question
[02:30] <luke1> Hello everybody.
[02:31] <yebyen> luke1: g'day
[02:31] <matematikaadit> yebyen: well, i'm using unity and so far it works fine for me. gnome-shell just too slow in my machine. maybe another time.
[02:31] <adv> Thanks all...
[02:31] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, what desktop are you running unity is on the left already?
[02:31] <adv> bye 4 now...
[02:32] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: well, after installing ubuntu-gnome-desktop, many default configuration get screwed up.
[02:32] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, Ah, you can reset compiz hold on.
[02:33] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/how-to-reset-unity-compiz-in-ubuntu-12-10-and-13-04
[02:34] <wilee-nilee> +1 for the shell here. ;)
[02:34] <yebyen> wilee-nilee: another satisfied gnome-shell user? :)
[02:35] <yebyen> wilee-nilee: did you have an issue with gnome-screensaver at all?  not displaying feedback when you type in your password and getting grayed out like a crashed application
[02:35] <Natasha93> 21/f/fl let me no if u want 2 cyber.  here's my nude pics:  http://bodyofchri.st/members/images/238854
[02:35] <yebyen> it still allows me to log back in but it's obviously broken from looking at it
[02:35] <yebyen> ewwwww
[02:36] <yebyen> as if you had to be warned
[02:36] <yebyen> don't click, not really 21/f/fl
[02:36] <pfifo> yeah, the domain name gives it away
[02:39] <maslen> Hi, I'm trying to compile some apps with the newest version of glib, but after running `make install` on glib, I get an error from pkg-config. Details are here: http://pastebin.com/eVJMNSnk
[02:40] <maslen> Hi, I'm trying to compile some apps with the newest version of glib, but after running `make install` on glib, I get an error from pkg-config when running ./configure on the apps source code. Details are here: http://pastebin.com/eVJMNSnk *
[02:41] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: I think unity now is more mature compared than the last time I use it. It's also faster, lighter, and Just Works (tm)
[02:42] <saiarcot895> maslen: do you know if glib was installed to /usr/local/bin?
[02:43] <pfifo> maslen, use --with-glib=/path/to/glib.a
[02:43] <maslen> saiarcot895: It was - that appears to be the default
[02:43] <maslen> pfifo: Without installing it?
[02:43] <pfifo> maslen, you said you did a make install
[02:43] <ShadowBlaze18> Hello, does Canonical offer sorce code on a physical CD or something similar for those who request it?
[02:43] <maslen> pfifo: I can uninstall it if necessary.
[02:44] <pfifo> maslen, you dont have to uninstall the old version, you just have to point the configure script to the correct file
[02:45] <saiarcot895> maslen: glib should be installed ("sudo make install"), but when compiling the software dependent on glib, try the --with-glib switch
[02:45] <maslen> pfifo: No, but I think i'll need to remove the svn version.
[02:45] <maslen> saiarcot895: pfifo said the same, I'll try it ASAP
[02:46] <pfifo> maslen, you can have 2 glibs installed side by side, its not a problem, you just have to set it up correctly
[02:48] <luke1> Is there a list of channel commands for ubottu? I know that you can use !info and then the name of a package to get information about it,but that's all i know about it.
[02:49] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: ah, it doesn't work. It's likely that many default configuration was affected by gnome-shell installation.
[02:49] <pfifo> luke1, http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi
[02:50] <luke1> pfifo:thanks,but i don't know how to read that what does it mean exactly?
[02:51] <zoidfarb> Hey, I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 on a Macbook Pro Retina, and I tried to install the nvidia drivers (nvidia-current) and now when I boot, I just get a black screen (I'm booting using rEFInd and EFI stub loader — no grub). Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[02:53] <luke1> pfifo:now i think i'm starting to get it.
[02:53] <luke1> !ask
[02:53] <luke1> !justask
[02:53] <pfifo> luke1, please PM the bot to test stuff
[02:54] <luke1> pfifo:thanks
[02:54] <ShadowBlaze18> !patience
[02:56] <Omen_20> Could someone explain as to why OpenShot is actually considered good?
[02:56] <holstein> Omen_20: "good" is a matter of opinion.. if it meets your needs, that would be good
[02:57] <maslen> saiarcot895: I apologize for all of my nub questions, but what exactly am I passing into --with-glib ?
[03:01] <matematikaadit> how to change default configuration of unity after installing gnome-shell?
[03:02] <luke1> !
[03:02] <luke1> sorry
[03:05] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, Installing the shell makes no changes, when you run that reset a reboot is often needed,
[03:06] <wilee-nilee> no changes in unity
[03:13] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, Do you have the unity-tweak-tool installed?
[03:14] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: oh, ok, but what caused this default to change then: http://i.imgur.com/mOcZaPl.png
[03:15] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: unity-tweak-tool, ok... wait...
[03:16] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, Not sure but if you move the : to the other end if still on the right it will go to the left. I have no idea what you have done.
[03:18] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: previously I install ubuntu-gnome-desktop. So that maybe what caused all of it. The default theme also becomes Adawaita, not ambiance. Uninstalling ubuntu-gnome-desktop give nothing
[03:19] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, double click that preferences and do this minimize,maximize,close:
[03:19] <Arutha> question : I'm playing around with ZFS (kernel, not fuse) and getting to the point of sharing my pool out via samba.. Is there a benefit to using the built-in zfs sharesmb stuff over just doing a normal smb.conf share setup (other than not having to mess wtih smb.conf in the first place :))?
[03:21] <wilee-nilee> matematikaadit, I have unity and the gnome-shell installing the shell does not change unity, however if you mess around it can, and you have to be extremely careful wit removing desktops if you want it completely gone.
[03:22] <muse> hello
[03:22] <wilee-nilee> removing desktops effectively are with package lists of it, not just remove the desktop
[03:24] <ShadowBlaze18> Hello, does Canonical offers source code on a physical device (i.e. CD, DVD)?
[03:24] <wilee-nilee> Arutha, Stock kernels are only supported here, just a heads up. ;)
[03:25] <wilee-nilee> ShadowBlaze18, Whatever is there is compacted, and install has the source link in sources.list.
[03:26] <Arutha> Eh, I was just hunting for a quick yea/nay.. I can go drop a question on the ubuntu forums instead (already gone through more than one zfs thread there :))
[03:26] <wilee-nilee> Arutha, Cool does not mean no one will help, just may be no one around.
[03:27] <wilee-nilee> Arutha, YOu might try ##linux you have to be registered for that channel is all.
[03:27] <Arutha> ah, yah, I'm not going to rage if no one knows... Take away my last beer, though... :)
[03:27] <wilee-nilee> Arutha, I did not think so. ;)
[03:27] <trism> ShadowBlaze18: apparently there is: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/source/20130425.3/source/ (for 13.04)
[03:27] <cydizen> ShadowBlaze18: Not sure which version you are running but you can grab the sources here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/source/
[03:28] <Squabbler> I'm having some HDMI issues with my laptop after going on vacation, can someone help me out?
[03:28] <ShadowBlaze18> wilee-nilee, well, I need to know if Canonical has in their written offer for source code, that they offer source code on a physical CD upon request. It was 12.04 LTS.
[03:28] <kiko__> Can someone point me to documentation about users and groups in Ubuntu 10.04? I am looking to find out why a new group is created for every user and if I can just assign all my users to one group and delete the group created when the user was created.
[03:28] <matematikaadit> wilee-nilee: ok, anyway thanks...
[03:28] <wilee-nilee> good find trism
[03:31] <cydizen> kiko__: Check out /etc/adduser.conf -    also, take a peek at https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/user-management.html
[03:31] <wheatthin> kiko__, I'm sorry but we no longer support 10.04
[03:32] <wilee-nilee> kiko__, This a desktop or server, the desktop is end of life.
[03:34] <Squabbler> is there some common reason as to why my HDMI port suddenly stops being recognized after being unplugged for a few days?? (12.04 LTS)
[03:34] <wheatthin> Squabbler, which graphics card?
[03:35] <kiko__> Yeah, I knew it was coming soon, which is why I was looking for documentation. It is a desktop not a server. Its an older computer, does 11.xx or 12.xx take any more resources to run vs 10.04?
[03:35] <Squabbler> intel 2nd gen integrated
[03:35] <wheatthin> kiko__, 12.04 should work just fine
[03:37] <kiko__> Ok, I'll try 12.04. I generally don't like to change things much so I stick with what works. Which is why I use Ubuntu...
[03:37] <wilee-nilee> kiko__, !2.04 is the starting point for supported desktops, takes a little more resource probably 1 gig ram is suggested, different desktop
[03:38] <Squabbler> wheatthin, intel 2nd gen integrated
[03:39] <wheatthin> Squabbler, what does randr say in the terminal?
[03:40] <kiko__> I've got 1.5 GiB available, running a Pentium 4 @ 2.4 GHz, so I want to keep it small to leave as much as I can for programs
[03:40] <Arutha> asuming all sata drives, when moving an mdadm array from one machine to another, it doesn't matter what sata ports the drives get plugged into, right?  mdadm will automagically assemble the array?
[03:40] <ShadowBlaze18> Thank you for trying to help, though.
[03:40] <ShadowBlaze18> Bye
[03:41] <wheatthin> kiko__, xubuntu should be fine
[03:41] <Squabbler> wheatthin, lvcs1 connected; vga1 disconnected
[03:41] <Squabbler> wheatthin. lvds1*
[03:43] <kiko__> Ok, Thanks for your help, I'll leave you to fix real problems.
[03:43] <wheatthin> Squabbler, lspci | grep vga
[03:44] <wheatthin> Squabbler, and   pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:45] <Squabbler> wheatthin, lspci outputs blank [nothing]
[03:45] <KM0201> huh?
[03:45] <KM0201> lol
[03:46] <KM0201> Squabbler: did you type lspci? (lowercase L)
[03:46] <Squabbler> wheatthin, yes
[03:47] <Squabbler> wheatthin, what do you need in particular from lspci
[03:47] <wheatthin> just paste it to pastebin
[03:48] <KM0201> well if lspci output is blank.. i can't imagine you'll glean much useful info.
[03:49] <Squabbler> no the grep was blank - lspci gives full list though
[03:49] <KM0201> oh ok.
[03:49] <KM0201> thats what i didn't get
[03:49] <Squabbler> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5854327/
[03:50] <wheatthin> Squabbler, now lemme see your xrandr -q
[03:51] <Squabbler> wheatthin, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5854331/
[03:52] <wheatthin> hmm
[03:52] <wheatthin> Squabbler, did you do an update some time in between your connections?
[03:52] <wheatthin> cause this says you don't even have hdmi ;/
[03:53] <Squabbler> yeah that's what I don't understand (it saying I don't have it)
[03:53] <Squabbler> I did do an update before I left, and once I got back
[03:55] <wheatthin> hmm sounds me your intel drivers were updated, and now are missing hdmi portion
[03:55] <wheatthin> to me*
[03:56] <wheatthin> you sure it's all plugged in and turned on?
[03:56] <wheatthin> and, is there a setting in the bios to turn it on or off?
[03:56] <Squabbler> wheatthin, yup, I have it plugged into the tv in front of me - bios is good - is there a simple way to revert them or reinstall the drivers?
[03:57] <wheatthin> Squabbler, not that I'm aware of.
[03:57] <wheatthin> you can reinstall the drivers, but you gotta know which update it was
[03:58] <cydizen> wheatthin: Squabbler: sorry im late to the party,is this one of the "switchable" graphics scenarios?  (intel / nvidia)
[03:58] <Squabbler> wheatthin, well it can only be from the last two updated i did (today or tuesday)
[03:58] <cydizen> can we do an lspci -v
[03:58] <devslash> i downloaded an ubuntu iso and tried writing it to my flash drive using dd but i cant seem to get it to boot.
[03:59] <wheatthin> devslash, what command did you use fully?
[03:59] <devslash> dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdb
[04:00] <wheatthin> devslash, and is your bios set to boot from usb?
[04:00] <devslash> i have a mac with refit
[04:00] <Squabbler> cydizen, you want a pastebin of the output?
[04:00] <wheatthin> refit?
[04:00] <cydizen> yes, sorry I wasnt clear Squabbler. thank you
[04:02] <Squabbler> cydizen, with full capability list?
[04:03] <cydizen> Squabbler: yes please
[04:03] <GhostingFish> Hello, I have a problem with Compix and Unity not loading after my computer froze whilst playing a game. I think it may have to do with updates that I made
[04:03] <GhostingFish> *Compiz
[04:04] <Squabbler> cydizen, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5854358/
[04:05] <GhostingFish> Also it seems that I am unable to get an internet connection on my computer as well. :T
[04:06] <himanshu_linux> hi
[04:06] <wheatthin> devslash, I have no clue, did you try pressing option c or something like that?
[04:08] <GhostingFish> Anyone have an idea on how I can fix  or revert Compiz and Unity?
[04:08] <wheatthin> GhostingFish, were you updating when it froze?
[04:08] <GhostingFish> no
[04:08] <cydizen> I'm poking around Squabbler
[04:09] <GhostingFish> I finished the updates a while ago, and I just hadnt restarted yet
[04:09] <wheatthin> restart.
[04:09] <GhostingFish> I've restarted a few times now, but i'll go and do it again.
[04:10] <wheatthin> Umm you just said you hadn't.
[04:10] <GhostingFish> I hadnt restarted right after installing the updates
[04:10] <GhostingFish> I had to hard shutdown ever since the compputer froze
[04:11] <wheatthin> so unity doesn't load? or is it compiz?
[04:11] <GhostingFish> Only the desktop with icons load and nothing more
[04:11] <wheatthin> And did you install something, like gnome-shell?
[04:11] <GhostingFish> I just hit install when the updates thing came up
[04:12] <cydizen> Squabbler: I'd like to try a couple things if you have time.  First, can you please open 'Software & Updates' from the dash.  Then check the Additional Drivers tab.  Is everything enabled as you would expect?
[04:13] <wheatthin> GhostingFish, try to reinstall unity
[04:13] <Squabbler> cydizen, nothing in the additional drivers list
[04:13] <GhostingFish> Alright
[04:13] <Squabbler> which is how it's always been
[04:14] <cydizen> Squabbler: okay thank you.   Do you have a liveCD handy you could boot into ?  If that DOES work, Id be curious to compare the output of the previous pastebins you did.
[04:15] <Squabbler> cydizen, i might have a USB boot handy, give me a minute -- which outputs did you want to compare?
[04:15] <netlar> Is there a Mir channel?
[04:16] <cydizen> Squabbler:  grab the lspci -v & xrandr -q
[04:16] <Squabbler> cydizen, okay be back in a min
[04:17] <cydizen> kk
[04:20] <netlar> Or do I ask questions about Mir here
[04:20] <Squabbler> cydizen, okay I was wrong, I'm going to have to make one real quick lol
[04:21] <cydizen> no sweat Squabbler!  I'll be around
[04:24] <netlar> Is Mir going to be similar to the Linux graphics stack that is in x.org?
[04:27] <devslash> Is anyone still here
[04:27] <netlar> Maybe not
[04:27] <wheatthin> am
[04:28] <genii> Somewhat
[04:29] <devslash> I booted Ubuntu as a live cd I want to extend my partition which is hda3 with hda5
[04:29] <devslash> I extended it and gparted is telling me that Ubuntu might not be able to boot
[04:30] <GhostingFish> Alright, reinstalled unity, now goingto see if it worked or not..
[04:30] <devslash> Will that actually cause it to not boot?
[04:30] <devslash> It should still be hda3 only bigger
[04:31] <icloud> When i play flash videos in full screen, the screen no longer respond to mouse movement, i have to press a whole bunch of keys to get the video to nest back into the page, anybody have the same problem?
[04:31] <GhostingFish> Reinstalling unity and then reboothing did not work..
[04:32] <devslash> Does anyone know?
[04:33] <wheatthin> devslash, I'm not sure that's possible.. hda3 is a primpary partition, and hda5 is extended partition..
[04:33] <wheatthin> what was the purpose of doing this?
[04:34] <chadster1975> im having a problem with my keyboard. my kitten laid on it and now its messed up
[04:34] <devslash> The exact message is "you have queued an operation to move the start sector of partition /dev/hda3. Failure to boot us most likely to occur if you move the Linux partition containing /boot or if you move the windows partition containing c:
[04:34] <wheatthin> yeah that'll definitely screw it up
[04:35] <wheatthin> boot sector is always at the beginning
[04:35] <Ben64> hda?
[04:35] <chadster1975> i went to keyboard layout and clicked reset to default and it did not help
[04:35] <devslash> So if I make the change can I boot the live cd and rerun grub
[04:35] <devslash> Sda3 sorry typo
[04:35] <wheatthin> devslash, if you already wrote it, then no.. data is lost
[04:36] <devslash> No I didn't
[04:36] <devslash> I haven't committed any changes
[04:36] <wheatthin> then press control c and not do follow through lol
[04:36] <devslash> I was told that you can extend an existing partition safely
[04:36] <wheatthin> you mean resize?
[04:37] <devslash> Extend
[04:37] <wheatthin> there's a difference
[04:37] <psusi> devslash, you can. what are you trying to do and what are you trying to do it with?
[04:37] <devslash> I have Ubuntu on a 60 gb partition. I have 73gb of free space and want to extend sda3 so it will be bigger
[04:37] <KM0201> (depending on the amount of data that needs moved though, might be safer to start over.. if it has to move a lot of data to extend the partition... it will take a while)
[04:37] <chadster1975> the left side of my keyboard is normal, but the right side has turned into a number pad
[04:37] <icloud> nm i fixed it
[04:38] <psusi> devslash, and you are using gparted on the ubuntu livecd to do this?
[04:38] <devslash> Yea
[04:38] <chadster1975> u=4 i=5 i=6 o=7 g=1 h=2 j=3
[04:38] <KM0201> 60gigs?... how much of that 60gigs do you have in use?... that would seem to be plenty for an OS... or did you screw up putting your /home on its own partition?
[04:38] <psusi> devslash, then you should be fine, though yea... 60 gigs should be more than enough
[04:39] <devslash> It's saying there's 46/55gb in use
[04:39] <KM0201> what the?
[04:39] <KM0201> must have a lot of multimedia or something on there
[04:40] <KM0201> do you have /home and / on separate partitions?
[04:40] <wheatthin> so if you want, the other parition you have extra, just delete it and resize the one you have in use, it'll "extend"
[04:40] <devslash> I have / and /home on the same partition
[04:41] <KM0201> my ubuntu partition is 30gigs, and i have a little over 14gigs free.... and that's with a TON of crap (granted, i keep most of my movies, videos, music, etc.. on my server)
[04:41] <KM0201> dunno, just seems strange that 60gigs is running out..
[04:41] <devslash> Wheatthin will that cause Ubuntu to not boot?
[04:42] <wheatthin> no.. it shouldn't harm the files at all.
[04:42] <Squabbler> KM0201, not if you don't use a server
[04:42] <KM0201> Squabbler: well, it depends.
[04:42] <psusi> devslash, not if you are just extending the end of the partition into free space following it
[04:43] <Squabbler> KM0201, I can burn through 150GB with movies and music easily
[04:43] <wheatthin> devslash, but what you were trying to do is create an extended partition, which would have messed things up
[04:43] <KM0201> because even w/o my server.. i usually hav emy drive set up... "/ and /something_else"... /something_else is a separate partition, and holds my music, etc.. (that i keep on my laptop)
[04:43] <devslash> There's no hda5
[04:43] <devslash> Sda5
[04:43] <wheatthin> same difference
[04:43] <KM0201> Squabbler: i see what you're saying
[04:43] <KM0201> if i had my whole collection on my laptop... the hard drive wouldn't be near big enough
[04:43] <devslash> So is it safe?
[04:43] <wheatthin> yup
[04:43] <KM0201> thats why i have a file server
[04:44] <wheatthin> just delete the sda5, and the resize the orginal one
[04:44] <cydizen> Squabbler: any luck with the liveCD & HDMI?
[04:44] <Squabbler> KM0201: oh I see what you mean
[04:44] <KM0201> i just doon't see how resizing out 12gigs (which seems to be what this guy is trying to do).. is really going to solve this issue... i mean, 12gigs.. thats nothing
[04:44] <KM0201> sorry, 15gigs
[04:44] <Squabbler> cydizen, 1 min left on DL, then going to boot
[04:45] <KM0201> reallly building a cheap fileserver/NAS waas the smartest thing i ever done....
[04:45] <wheatthin> KM0201, if that's what he has to work with, then there shouldn't be anything not to get
[04:46] <KM0201> wheatthin: you're not hearing what i'm saying
[04:46] <KM0201> if i read him correctly, he only wants to change the partition size by about 15gigs.
[04:46] <KM0201> 15gigs.. is.. nothing.
[04:46] <wheatthin> I am, it's pointless.. we know you have an extra file server, perhaps this person doesn't
[04:46] <KM0201> no you're not.
[04:46] <devslash> Wheatthin this is how gparted shows my drive: sda1 is efi 200mb,sda2 is my mac install 102gb,unallocated 73gb,sda3 is 55gb, and sda4 is my swap 2gb. I'm going to merge the unallocated with sda3
[04:46] <wheatthin> 15gb is still more than what he has now
[04:46] <wheatthin> that's the point
[04:46] <KM0201> i was using why i had a file server as an example to Squabbler ..
[04:47] <KM0201> wheatthin: so how long before that 15gigs is done?... probalby a couple weeks?
[04:47] <KM0201> then he's back at square one
[04:47] <wheatthin> KM0201, that's his problem.. he'll have to get an external at his own time
[04:47] <wheatthin> for now, that's ^ what he has to workw ith
[04:48] <Squabbler> so he's merging an extra 73gb, not 15gb, right?
[04:48] <wheatthin> right
[04:48] <devslash> Yes
[04:48] <KM0201> Squabbler: i thought he wsaid he was going from 55gigs, to 73gigs
[04:48] <GhostingFish> Reinstalling Unity did not work for me. Is there any other way that I can get unity to work?
[04:48] <devslash> No
[04:48] <KM0201> GhostingFish: unity not working is a feature... it's working even when you don't know it.. :)
[04:48] <KM0201> install mate, be happy. :)
[04:49] <GhostingFish> :T
[04:49] <devslash> So is it safe given that partition table?
[04:49] <wheatthin> yup
[04:49] <devslash> Even despite gparteds warning
[04:49] <devslash> ?
[04:49] <GhostingFish> so there is NO way that I can revert unity on my desktop?
[04:49] <wheatthin> except you don't want tod elete sda3, cause that's what you have allocated
[04:49] <devslash> Right
[04:50] <wheatthin> 73 is unallocated, so resize the 55gb to use the 73gb more
[04:51] <wheatthin> when you create an extended partition, you're actually trying to put more than 4 primary partitions onto a hard disk. ..you want to resize, and vuala
[04:52] <wheatthin> so what I'm saying is resize the 55gb partition to use the 73gb unallocated stuff, and it'll work
[04:53] <Squabbler> cydizen, okay - going to boot and get those pasted brb
[04:53] <cydizen> kk
[04:55] <luke1> Hi
[04:55] <wheatthin> wb luke
[04:55] <wheatthin> or into this channel.
[04:55] <luke1> hi wheatthin:
[04:55] <luke1> :)
[04:56] <wheatthin> luke1, gonna try helping out? or did you have a problem?
[04:56] <luke1> helping
[04:56] <wheatthin> sweet.. && good luck :)
[04:59] <GhostingFish> this is the second linux os that got nearly bricked via updates..
[05:00] <wheatthin> GhostingFish, some times it takes a couple times to learn how to do it right, especially if you have custom packages insatlled and what not
[05:00] <wheatthin> installed*
[05:01] <GhostingFish> the first time was right after installing updates from a fress install......
[05:01] <GhostingFish> *fresh
[05:02] <wheatthin> GhostingFish, buuuut, if you skip a process inbetween updating regular packages, and doing a release upgrade/update, then there's things to be broken
[05:02] <GhostingFish> true
[05:03] <Squabbler> cydizen, both results are here -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/5854460/
[05:03] <wheatthin> brb
[05:03] <GhostingFish> (then why is there an option to update programs in your OS? xD )
[05:03] <cydizen> Squabbler: was hdmi working from live?
[05:03] <GhostingFish> I'll tinker around and see if I find anything
[05:04] <Erealz> hey guys i did this yesterday sudo chmod 770 -R /home/user/ now i cant evern ls how do i fix if even possible?
[05:04] <Squabbler> cydizen, tv didn't come on with it no - i guess i should have checked display options huh.. /facepalm
[05:04] <cydizen> hehe
[05:05] <nownot> trying to convert flac to m4a and I keep getting Input stream #0:0 frame changed from rate:44100 fmt:s16 ch:2 chl:stereo to rate:44100 fmt:s16p ch:2 chl:stereo
[05:05] <nownot> using command for f in *.flac; do avconv -i "$f" -c:a alac "${f%.*}.m4a"; done … ideas?
[05:13] <Squabbler> cydizen, i'm on boot now and i still can't get hdmi to work, not in displays, no detection, etc
[05:13] <cydizen> Squabbler: what laptop model are you using?
[05:14] <Squabbler> cydizen, Acer Aspire 3830T (Timeline X)
[05:17] <cydizen> Squabbler: I have a laptop with a similar card, give me a few to fire it up and take a look
[05:17] <Squabbler> cydizen, awesome
[05:23] <Erealz> how do you adduser
[05:24] <wheatthin> Erealz, I'm sure you can do it in the terminal.. sudo adduser
[05:24] <wheatthin> and go through the prompts
[05:25] <cydizen> Squabbler: okay mine is working.   can you pastebin  lsmod | grep i915
[05:25] <Squabbler> from usb or system?
[05:25] <cydizen> Let's go from your real system.
[05:25] <Squabbler> okay one sec
[05:25] <cydizen> k
[05:29] <Squabbler_> cydizen, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5854501/
[05:30] <cydizen> Dang Squabbler_ , same results on mine
[05:31] <Squabbler_> cydizen, I know it's not the cable or the tv because I just tested it with the PS3 and it works fine
[05:33] <cydizen> Squabbler_: lets see if that pesky acer_wmi driver is causing issues.
[05:33] <Squabbler_> I'm guessing it has to do with when I updated today or last tuesday like wheatthin said - but I'm not sure what
[05:33] <cydizen> sudo modprobe -r acer_wmi
[05:34] <sawrubh> I have downloaded the iso file from the cd images site, now I want to install it from inside Windows 7 (similar to what we used to do with wubi)
[05:35] <Squabbler_> cydizen, nothing
[05:35] <sawrubh> how can I do so ?  I've tried to mount the iso and then copying the wubi.exe inside to outside where the iso file is stored and following the steps I used to do earlier, but it starts downloading the torrent for the iso, instead of using the iso stored locally
[05:35] <sawrubh> this is Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit btw
[05:35] <cydizen> Squabbler_:  okay when do you lsmod again, can you confirm it's now gone?
[05:36] <Squabbler_> cydizen, yes
[05:37] <cydizen> Squabbler_: Okay, lets restart X now.  from the command line, run sudo service lightdm restart
[05:37] <wilee-nilee> sawrubh, So you want the wubi install in other words?
[05:37] <sawrubh> yeah
[05:38] <genii> !wubi
[05:38] <Jordan_U> sawrubh: I highly recommend against using Wubi; It's not even supported in the most recent versions of Ubuntu.
[05:39] <sawrubh> Jordan_U: so the usual route of creating another partition and installing in it ?
[05:39] <Jordan_U> sawrubh: Yes, that is what I would recommend doing.
[05:40] <wilee-nilee> sawrubh, I would agree with Jordan_U however if a wubi was your only choice, say a work computer here is what you need. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_can_I_use_a_manually_downloaded_ISO.3F
[05:41] <root_worm> :)
[05:42] <nownot> anyone here feel like helping out with an avconv issue? no one in ffmpeg is awake
[05:43] <cydizen> Squabbler: tell me you have hdmi now hehe
[05:43] <Squabbler> cydizen - nope, I don't think it restart, I don't know what just happened lol
[05:43] <Squabbler> it locked
[05:43] <cydizen> okay, did you reboot?
[05:43] <Squabbler> yes
[05:44] <cydizen> make sure that acer module is reloaded.   It was just a test
[05:45] <cydizen> Squabbler: silly question - when you plug in the hdmi cable, and you hit the "function" monitor button on the laptop, does it doe anything?
[05:45] <Squabbler> yeah it's there, the acer_wmi right?
[05:45] <cydizen> yup
[05:46] <Squabbler> nope, the only one that works is the on/off, and it turns this screen off (laptop screen)
[05:47] <cydizen> okay.  It's going to take a bit more research it seems.  I need to step away for now, sorry we couldn't get it done!
[05:47] <Squabbler> also my mouse vanished
[05:47] <Squabbler> since doing that lol
[05:47] <Starthunder> I have a PowerBook with Ubuntu Server on it, and the display keeps falling asleep after a couple minutes of inactivity. Can I adjust that value(, or, ideally, just tell it not to sleep at all for the next two hours)?
[05:47] <cydizen> Squabbler: oh?
[05:48] <Squabbler> cydizen: yeah no pointer anymore
[05:49] <Random832> Starthunder: why do you care about display sleep?
[05:49] <Starthunder> Because I'm about to watch a movie on /this/ computer, and open my IRC on that one.
[05:49] <Random832> are you playing a movie? this should be something the movie player can take care of
[05:50] <Starthunder> I'm not playing a movie on the Ubuntu machine.
[05:50] <Starthunder> Like I said, I'm about to use it for IRC.
[05:50] <Starthunder> I'm just…not…yet.
[05:50] <cydizen> hey Squabbler, before I go, check out this page.  Might be some reference points: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireTimeline
[05:50] <Squabbler> cydizen, okay appreciate your time and help!
[05:50] <Random832> i'm confused - you're worried about the display sleeping on the one you're watching the movie on, or the one you're IRCing on?
[05:50] <Random832> and if you're
[05:50] <Squabbler> I'll let you know if I figure it out
[05:50] <Random832> and if the latter, if you're IRCing, aren't you typing?
[05:51] <cydizen> Yea, like I said wish we could have knocked that one out.  Ciao!   Squabbler:  yes please do!
[05:51] <Starthunder> That's rather irrelevant…
[05:51] <Starthunder> I'm /currently/ IRCing on a Mac.
[05:51] <Starthunder> I'm /about/ to watch a movie on said Mac, and move my IRCing to the Ubuntu laptop
[05:51] <Random832> i'm confused
[05:51] <xvzf> my Ubuntu reports a suspend/resumeproblem. Now I can type only very slowly and the mouse is not smooth. What is this problem and how can I fix it?
[05:51] <Random832> is the machine you're worried about display sleep the one you're _going to be_ IRCing on?
[05:51] <Starthunder> Yes.
[05:51] <Starthunder> Exactly.
[05:52] <Random832> ok...
[05:52] <Random832> but if you're IRCing, then how is there going to be inactivity?
[05:52] <Starthunder> There…won't be.
[05:52] <Starthunder> But /right now/, the display keeps sleeping, and it's annoying me.
[05:52] <Random832> if there's not inactivity, then why are you worried about display sleep
[05:52] <Random832> I'm confused.
[05:52] <Starthunder> Because there IS inactivity RIGHT NOW
[05:52] <Random832> because you're not using it for anything right now
[05:53] <Random832> so why do you need the display to be on?
[05:53] <Starthunder> …ummm…
[05:54] <Random832> Anyway try this http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-disable-screen-blanking-screen-going-blank.html
[05:55] <TheMiner> He is mistyping.
[05:55] <Random832> er that's mainly focused on text console mode, but you see it says xset s off for X
[05:55] <TheMiner> He means that there IS activity and that his display is going to sleep with activity
[05:55] <Random832> TheMiner: no, he's talking about the one he's not using for anything right now (i.e. inactivity) going blank
[05:55] <Starthunder> …no, that's not what I mean. P
[05:55] <Starthunder> :P *
[05:56] <Random832> he said that very specifically, I asked for clarification twice since it's such a weird thing to be annoyed at
[05:56] <tritech> what is the command to pipe from a file on ubuntu into another file?
[05:56] <Random832> tritech: what do you mean "pipe from a file"?
[05:56] <utfans05> | ?
[05:56] <utfans05> or >
[05:56] <Equinox3> mv lists lists.old
[05:56] <Moonlightning> cat $file1 > $file2 #this?
[05:56] <wilee-nilee> Starthunder, Ubuntu turn off display sleep per session    xset -dpms ; xset s off   (on or off)
[05:56] <Random832> cp file1 file2
[05:57] <wilee-nilee> timed not sure
[05:57] <Random832> but this seems so obvious that can't possibly be what you meant?
[05:57] <tritech> take the output of a file and send it into another
[05:57] <Random832> "output of a file"?
[05:57] <Random832> define 'file' as you are using it
[05:57] <Moonlightning> fifo?
[05:57] <Random832> files don't have output, they just exist.
[05:57] <Random832> commands have output
[05:57] <tritech> well if u open a file, u see info right
[05:58] <Random832> ok
[05:58] <Random832> so you want to take the data in one file
[05:58] <Random832> and put it in another file
[05:58] <tritech> piping that content into another file
[05:58] <Random832> what exactly does cp not do for you?
[05:58] <tritech> using this sign |
[05:58] <wilee-nilee> Starthunder, Not sure on a server though if that command works.
[05:58] <Moonlightning> wilee-nilee: it's a laptop…I just installed Ubuntu Server on it xP
[05:58] <Random832> why would you use | for that? they're files
[05:59] <Moonlightning> (tritech: no…if you open() a file, you get a file descriptor ;3 )
[05:59] <wilee-nilee> Moonlightning, I suspect the command is tied to X, you have no X right?
[05:59] <Moonlightning> wilee-nilee: yep, no X.
[05:59] <Random832> Moonlightning: did you see the link i posted?
[05:59] <Moonlightning> But I didn't get an error, and it seems to be working; the display hasn't slept yet.
[05:59] <Moonlightning> Random832, I did.
[05:59] <Random832> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-disable-screen-blanking-screen-going-blank.html
[05:59] <Moonlightning> That's what I used.
[05:59] <Random832> ok
[05:59] <Moonlightning> Thanks, by the way XD
[06:00] <MonkeyDust> tritech  use tee, like so     ls|tee file_name
[06:01] <tritech> monkeydust so tee filename | filename2 ?
[06:02] <MonkeyDust> tritech  no    command|tee file
[06:02] <Moonlightning> Oh, and I remembered why it was annoying me
[06:03] <Moonlightning> If the screen is off for more than a minute or so, when it comes back on, it's noticeably dimmer, as if it's taking a while to warm up again.
[06:03] <Moonlightning> So I kept hitting a key to wake it up, so the screen wouldn't be all dim when I actually did want to use it.
[06:04] <tritech> so ls filename | filename2 ?
[06:04] <ripthejacker> Integration with Android phone is improved in Ubuntu 13.04. Both sd card and external card is working with Jellybean OS. Can anyone explain what has changed to make this happen?
[06:04] <GhostingFish> I'm back lol. My problem was Xorg, and after manially reinstalling it, unity started just fine, but after rebooting again, back to the same old problem
[06:05] <wilee-nilee> ripthejacker, You have 4.2 android right?
[06:05] <MonkeyDust> tritech  no    ls|tee blah     <-- it creates a file called 'blah'
[06:05] <genii> tritech: If you did: ls filename | tee filename2   ...then filename2 contains the name of filename1 and not the contents
[06:05] <ripthejacker> No
[06:05] <ripthejacker> 4.1
[06:05] <Moonlightning> tritech: `ls $filename` with no options will give you `$filename` :P
[06:05] <ltrottier> so, my use case for an encrypted home directory is that I don't want people to have access to my data if they steal my hardware
[06:05] <ripthejacker> wilee-nilee: 4.1
[06:06] <wilee-nilee> ripthejacker, Ah yeahm y dna is 4.1 and works and my nexus 7 4.2 works, I think it is from android.
[06:06] <ltrottier> … but this means that administration of the thing sucks, because I always have to enter a password if I want to ssh in
[06:06] <tritech> i have a file that i want to pipe the contents into another file
[06:06] <tritech> any idea of what command to use?
[06:07] <wilee-nilee> mto is a funky beast
[06:07] <MonkeyDust> tritech  then try      cat filename > other_filename
[06:07] <genii> tritech: Why are you adverse to just using cp filename1 filename2 ?
[06:07] <wilee-nilee> mtp*
[06:07] <Moonlightning> ltrottier: HDE confused me thorougly
[06:07] <Moonlightning> I ended up wiping my machine and using FDE instead. I have to enter a password to boot, but nothing after that (for ssh at least)
[06:07] <ltrottier> Moonlightning: yeah, but I want a machine that I can administer remotely
[06:08] <ltrottier> so full FDE doesn't work, and neither does HDE, apparently
[06:08] <ripthejacker> wilee-nilee: But it's not working in Ubuntu 12.01. It mount only sd card and not external
[06:08] <ltrottier> because using id_rsa.pub etc. can't apparently decrypt the folder
[06:08] <genii> tritech: If the filename1 is some executable file of which you want the output of it when being run to go to filename2 then it is some other matter
[06:08] <wilee-nilee> ripthejacker, Not, sure really.
[06:09] <ltrottier> basically, this means I won't be using HDE
[06:09] <ripthejacker> kk
[06:10] <ltrottier> or if I want to do encryption, I'll have to do a whole bunch more work to make it possible to remotely administer it
[06:10] <Moonlightning> ltrottier: I think you may have to put ~/.ssh/authorized_keys in the underlying decrypted version of your ~
[06:10] <Moonlightning> As well as in the encrypted version.
[06:10] <Moonlightning> Not entirely sure how you would manage to do that.
[06:10] <ltrottier> Moonlightning: yeah was already bitten by that today
[06:11] <ltrottier> just put authorized keys file in /etc/
[06:11] <ltrottier> (outside of home dir)
[06:11] <Moonlightning> haha
[06:11] <ltrottier> and pointed sshd to it
[06:11] <ltrottier> it's not a security hazard
[06:11] <ltrottier> well, it reveals the identity of connecting computers. big whoop
[06:11] <Moonlightning> XD
[06:12] <Moonlightning> …oooooh
[06:12] <Moonlightning> Just read that better.
[06:12] <ltrottier> ??
[06:12] <Moonlightning> I dunno. It seems to me there should be a way to have passwordless ssh login
[06:12] <Moonlightning> Even with HDE
[06:13] <ltrottier> Moonlightning: yes, you can have it. it just won't auto-mount your encrypted home dir
[06:13] <ltrottier> and it's extremely irritating that it doesn't
[06:13] <Moonlightning> That's what I meant XD
[06:13] <Moonlightning> I'm tired, sorry.
[06:13] <ltrottier> because the use case of remotely administrating machines that could be stolen is basically not possible
[06:13] <ltrottier> *administering
[06:14] <ltrottier> which is kind of absurd, if you think about it
[06:14] <histo> Moonlightning: you can do passwordless logging in with keys
[06:14] <ltrottier> histo: you can log in. but you have to enter your password to access the home dir
[06:15] <histo> ltrottier: what?
[06:15] <histo> ltrottier: oh with encrypted home
[06:15] <ltrottier> if you have HDE, you can have password-less login to your machine
[06:15] <ltrottier> right
[06:15] <histo> Silly people encrypting their home partitions
[06:15] <ltrottier> which prevents a whole class of use cases
[06:16] <ltrottier> imagine you had a computer in a public place, but wanted to hide the data on it
[06:16] <ltrottier> … but also be able to reset it and administer it remotely
[06:16] <ltrottier> you can't do this in any simple way with the current architecture of HDE
[06:17] <ltrottier> or, of course, FDE (which seems to require that you be there physically at reboot)
[06:50] <Wisemanofhyrule> If I create a WAP using hostapd only so that I can create a wireless local network, do I need to enable NAT since it wont be connecting to the internet?

The only other dock I know of that offers all that is KDE's panel with the icon-only taskmanager widget. Are there alternatives for other desktop

[07:05] <wilee-nilee> disdi, Does not mean no one will help just a bit slow now, just info, could try ##linux if you are registered.

[07:07] <cristian_c> histo, toggle button works half. It mutes, but it doesn't mute anymore
[07:07] <MonkeyDust> disdi  show a list of kernel dedicated channels
[07:07] <histo> cristian_c: try monitoring with xev running in a terminal and see if the key presses are getting registered

[07:08] <devslash> how do you convert a dmg to iso ?
[07:08] <histo> devslash: Who made the dmg?
[07:08] <devslash> apple
[07:09] <cristian_c> histo, they are not mounted on the keyboard
[07:09] <devslash> what does that matter ?
[07:09] <histo> devslash: what OS are you on currently

[07:11] <deroot> Why Ubuntu(Linux) can run CLI application from lightDM step? for example if you set wget in crontab file, wget can be started at the predefined time in crontab file without login to desktop -> it does not need authentication!
[07:12] <deroot> *CLI applications
[07:12] <histo> deroot: You put it in cron what did you expect?
[07:13] <histo> deroot: that's the whole point of cron is to run whatever at a specified time.
[07:13] <devslash> thanks
[07:13] <histo> cristian_c: what do you mean they are not mounted on keyboard?
[07:13] <DesignerX> hi guus, anyone here has exp with Ubuntu as Guest VM  & Win7 host ? having problem making hardlink to shared folders
[07:13] <histo> DesignerX: install guest additions
[07:14] <histo> DesignerX: also you may receive more help in the vbox channel
[07:14] <cristian_c> histo, they are close to power button and to wifi button. If I take off the keyboard , there are these buttons yet
[07:15] <DesignerX> histo: i use VMware workstation 9 , I already have the tools & I can shared the folder .. but I need to create a hardlink to the shard folders but it doesnt allow me
[07:15] <histo> cristian_c: they should be through the keyboard controller there.
[07:15] <histo> DesignerX: What is the error?
[07:15] <cristian_c> histo, I think they are acpi keys
[07:15] <DesignerX> histo:  let me copy it for you .. one sec
[07:16] <cristian_c> they don't belong to the keyboard
[07:16] <histo> DesignerX: hardlinks cannot link directories btw
[07:16] <histo> cristian_c: No idea then.. No you said if you boot to cd they work fine?
[07:17] <DesignerX> histo: oh .. well that is the problem then
[07:17] <cristian_c> histo, I've tried in live mode and they work well
[07:19] <histo> cristian_c: with the same version of ubuntu?
[07:19] <cristian_c> histo, yes
[07:19] <cristian_c> histo, I've tried the same kernel, too
[07:19] <histo> cristian_c: make sure you "live mode" is up to date.. Perhaps you are experiencing a bug
[07:20] <cristian_c> histo, what can I do? :)
[07:20] <cristian_c> live cd
[07:21] <cristian_c> histo, these keys worked some months ago
[07:21] <cristian_c> always on 12.04
[07:21] <histo> cristian_c: Try to determine which setting or application you installed that is interfering or causing a bug effecting their use.
[07:22] <histo> cristian_c: I have no idea what that maybe... Perhaps search askubuntu.com for your laptop model etc...
[07:22] <cristian_c> histo, I'll try
[07:23] <cristian_c> histo, http://askubuntu.com/search?q=c500
[07:23] <cristian_c> nohing :(
[07:23] <cristian_c> *nothing
[07:24] <histo> cristian_c: Perhaps post a question there.  A forum search may help as well.
[07:24] <cristian_c> histo, ok

[08:48] <AdskiDeAnus> hi
[09:08] <Ubuh-Huntuh> i need to intercept a client server tcp/ip connection and modify the content of the binary file being transferred from the server to the client. this is for testing the checksum algorithm done at the client side. any way to do this with a linux gateway setup to forward traffic in the middle?
[09:12] <MonkeyDust> Ubuh-Huntuh  i guess that's beyond this channel, try asking in #ubuntu-server, ##networking or ##linux
[09:14] <ikonia> Ubuh-Huntuh: what distro are you using, you're asking in #fedora, #debian, #suse, #centos and many other channels
[09:15] <varunendra> Ubuh-Huntuh, what you are asking is Hacking and definitely not supported here.
[09:16] <start_prone> hi
[09:18] <start_prone> i have installed the Xubuntu distribution and I had the bad inspiration of changing the video driver from nouveau to nVidia
[09:19] <start_prone> the problem is now that the X server restarts with no reason
[09:19] <deckard> would someone give me a simple understanding of why there are secret parts to driver code? As to make so many options available for Ubuntu
[09:19] <start_prone> the error associated that I could find in syslog is this:
[09:19] <Ubuh-Huntuh> it's not hacking if i can install a forwarding router in the middle!
[09:19] <Ubuh-Huntuh> this is done in a lab for testing

[09:20] <start_prone> any ideas how can I solve the problem?
[09:23] <Walex> start_prone: build the 'xfce4-session' from sources and find the bug and fix it. Or else pay someone to do that. Or else wait until it is someone else's itch to fix it. You can always report the bug via the Ubuntu tracking system
[09:39] <start_prone> Walex: I can't submit the error with the built in system. it says that I don't have that application installed...
[09:39] <start_prone> Walex: anyway... thank you

[10:04] <ikonia> tears: what info does it reveal ?
[10:04] <tears> ikonia like the source IP

[10:04] <lfzhang> where are you from?

[10:32] <nero> have u done the md5 sumcheck?
[10:32] <nero> are u using a cd?
[10:32] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> yes, and it was correct
[10:32] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> im using dvd
[10:32] <nero> TRY USING A THUMB DRIVE.
[10:32] <nero> disable UEFI on boot menu.
[10:33] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> im using a older computer without UEFI

[10:33] <nero> are u performing a complete install of ubuntu?
[10:33] <StarOnD> someone in this room told me once about an !alis kind of command which searches for chat rooms ,can someone tell me exactly what that command is ?
[10:33] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> i would replace xp
[10:33] <Ben64> sdfgdfsdfsdfsd: 64bit or 32
[10:33] <nero> enabled USB boot?
[10:33] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> have tried both, 32 and 64 bit
[10:33] <nero> I mean, the dvd as first boot device?
[10:34] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> i have tried usb which starts blinking cursor after "PCI device listing"
[10:34] <Ben64> !alis | StarOnD
[10:34] <nero> u are getting a blank screen huh?
[10:34] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> if i try to boot from usb it just starts blinking cursor after "pci device listing" in boot
[10:34] <Adon> hi all
[10:35] <nero> try the usb.
[10:35] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> thats the problem, usb wont boot
[10:35] <StarOnD> okay ben64,ubottu
[10:35] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> but dvds do
[10:35] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> when i boot from dvd i get the purple screen where i can press key to get to boot options
[10:35] <nero> why not? have u changed the boot device priority to USB?
[10:35] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> yes but the problem is that it starts blinking cursor in bottom of screen after "PCI Device listing" with USB
[10:36] <nero> sdfgdfsdfsdfsd and nothing happens?
[10:36] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> all what happens with usb is cursor blinking in bottom of scren
[10:36] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> but dvds do boot and i get that purple screen where you press key and get that menu
[10:37] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> but after that when ubuntu tries to boot it goes to blank screen with small red square with white line
[10:38] <Ben64> maybe try using the alternate cd to install?
[10:39] <nero> sdfgdfsdfsdfsd  a blank screen or a purple one?
[10:39] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> blank screen after purple
[10:39] <nero> sdfgdfsdfsdfsd ok! purple one!
[10:39] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> i first get the purple screen, then it goes black when it should try start ubuntu
[10:39] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> and there is always that little red square

[10:42] <jasonsmr> hello ubuntu channel
[10:42] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> by the way, since i have 32-bit and 64-bit discs, would you recommend 32-bit or 64-bit to my computer with athlon 64 3500+ 2.2 ghz, 2 gb ram?
[10:42] <jasonsmr> Question ,say I was to purchase a laptop , can I put linux on it? ;P
[10:43] <Tylerjd> jasonsmr: that should be no problem.
[10:43] <jasonsmr> real question ,whats the best touchscreen laptop
[10:43] <Ben64> theres a few secureboot laptops that make life difficult, but for the most part you can put linux on em
[10:43] <nero> go for the 32 bit.
[10:43] <sdfgdfsdfsdfsd> okay, thanks
[10:43] <jasonsmr> I see dell fip thing, but the specs dont look all that auesome
[10:44] <jasonsmr> I love 64 bit I used a old mobil tablet that was touchscreen but old* with ubuntu worked awesome
[10:44] <blazemore> !best jasonsmr
[10:44] <jasonsmr> Im looking for advice on a >8G memory laptop ,
[10:44] <blazemore> !best | jasonsmr
[10:44] <jasonsmr> right I understand it
[10:45] <jasonsmr> just , asking what you the community uses (and is presumably hapy with)
[10:45] <blazemore> jasonsmr: Just make sure you read up on what wireless and graphics chipset your potential purchase uses, and Google for Linux support
[10:45] <blazemore> jasonsmr: Avoid anything that has chips by Broadcom
[10:45] <jasonsmr> blazemore : agree
[10:45] <jasonsmr> atheros
[10:49] <nero> blazemore
[10:49] <nero> thats a myth!
[10:50] <blazemore> nero: I see a disproportionate number of Broadcom wifi/bluetooth issues in this channel
[10:50] <blazemore> That's all I'm going on
[10:50] <nero> blazemore broadcom and atheros are awesome and can be configured independently!

[10:53] <nero> You can download the drivers for atheros and broadcom and Intel from this link and install the drivers independently http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/

[11:47] <MOUD> Im trying to resize my ubuntu partition using gparted. Can anyone help? I booted it with my ubuntu cd now
[11:47] <matematikaadit> MOUD: what problem do you encounter?
[11:48] <MOUD> I want to increase the size but i can only decrease (and i have unallocated space too
[11:49] <Walex> MOUD: space must be contiguous... probably it is not.
[11:50] <JoTraGo> The unallocated space must be at the end (right hand side) of the partition you want to expand, If it is not you will need to move some partitions until it is.
[11:50] <stevenm_> matematikaadit, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5855159/
[11:51] <MOUD> How do i move the partitions then?
[11:51] <Lord-Readman> when I join #ubuntu-uk my IRC closes
[11:51] <Lord-Readman> any ideas?
[11:52] <DJones> Lord-Readman: Are you ok for a pm
[11:52] <Lord-Readman> sure
[11:52] <JoTraGo> GParted has a move function. but hopefully you do not need to move your Ubuntu Boot Partition, there can be consequences
[11:53] <MOUD> I hope not. Booting is a nightmare
[11:55] <matematikaadit> stevenm_: what's your Ubuntu version?
[11:55] <stevenm_> matematikaadit, 12.04
[11:55] <JoTraGo> Moud: if there is just a data partition between your Ubuntu root and the free space you should be ok to move it.  If you are not sure, I would strongly recommend a GPARTED tutorial. Partitioning is not for the faint of heart.
[11:56] <JoTraGo> Moud: EG  Boot - Ubuntu-Root - Data - Free Space.   Then move the Data partition to the right and free up space between the Ubuntu-Root and Data, then extend Ubuntu-Root
[12:00] <stevenm_> matematikaadit, any ideas?  it *should* just work - lsb is installed at a version equal or higher than what it wants
[12:01] <stevenm_> unless for some reason it doesn't see my lsb as the same as the lsb it wants - but it's named the same

[12:40] <Vec> lmat: Yeah maby, im not sure how i want my partitionscheme yet
[12:40] <lmat> Vec: hmm...I think the MBR points to the linux kernel which is on a particular partition, so after changing partitions (and UUID of some partitions), you may need to have another go at the MBR.
[12:41] <Vec> lmat: Ah, ok. hm
[12:41] <Vec> I guess i can use liveCD with gparted to remove the MBR?
[12:41] <Pici> mustafa_: that is a warning, and not an error. It won't stop apache2 from running.
[12:41] <lmat> Vec: if by remove you mean clear or re-write, yes.
[12:42] <Vec> lmat: clear, remove, set on fire, whatever, i just need it gone, right?
[12:42] <Vec> The ubuntu install will install it again anyway if its not there, afaik
[12:43] <Vec> hm but wait, i use GRUB2 which is a bootloader, does the MBR on the disk point to GRUB2 which points to the linuxkernel/bootthingie?
[12:43] <Pici> mustafa_: you can add a line that says ServerName localhost in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf   and the error will go away.
[12:43] <lmat> Vec: I don't think you need to remove it. I'm pretty sure the ubuntu install will take care of all that "nasty stuff" ^_^

[12:43] <Vec> lmat :p
[12:43] <lmat> Vec: perhaps the arch linux wiki says?
[12:52] <Vec> lmat: Yeah GRUB2 installs into the MBR on my disk. So now that i redo the partitions i have to make GRUB2 update it's pointer -- i have no clue how tho :p

[12:57] <lmat> AryanKing: Ahh...interesting...I use grub, so I don't know what that's even like :) So Linux doesn't get started at all?
[12:57] <rymate1234> hi

[12:58] <AryanKing> No. I had recently annhilated any form of Windows devilry from my box, so I have no idea what to do.
[12:58] <blazemore> Vec: I'm not sure of the actual process, but I believe you want to run "sudo update-grub" from a LiveCD one you chroot into your main Ubuntu install
[12:58] <Vec> lmat: I imagine it should be easy enough ? To just add one entry, like here grub look at this /sda1/boot
[12:59] <lmat> Vec: I've never figured out how to use the grub prompt ^_^

[13:09] <blazemore> rymate1234: I don't think that's right...
[13:09] <rymate1234> blazemore: ?
[13:09] <Sirenita26> hello
[13:10] <Guest86313> Hey. I've just restarted my system and it wouldn't launch the GUI. I had 12.04 Ubuntu. Not sure what I could have done wrong.
[13:10] <blazemore> rymate1234: Is that what you got when you ran lsusb?
[13:10] <rymate1234> yes
[13:10] <wilee-nilee> Siebjee, dist-upgrade is associated with stuff like kernel upgrades
[13:11] <blazemore> rymate1234: Do you know what model number your wireless adaptor is?
[13:11] <rymate1234> i know its a tp-link
[13:11] <lmat> MonkeyDust: multisystem looks a little disturbing... between typos like "Grub2 be installed in the mbr." (in big letters in the GUI on at least two screen shots I've seen) and the command   if [ "$(stat -c %a /media)" != "777" ]; then chmod 777 /media
[13:11] <rymate1234> lemme find it in my history
[13:11] <blazemore> rymate1234: Does it not have a model number printed on a sticker?
[13:11] <Layke__> I've tried restarting my system several times including shutdown/start. And it always takes me straight to a terminal for login. How can I get the GUI back?
[13:11] <lmat> MonkeyDust: In the install script...is it normal to be chmod like that with no intention of changing it back?
[13:12] <blazemore> Layke__: Can you get a GUI back temporarily by logging in on the console and then running £startx"?
[13:12] <blazemore> Layke__: sorry, that should be "startx"
[13:13] <rymate1234> blazemore: its a TP Link Nano USB N150 Wireless Adaptor.
[13:13] <Layke__> blazemore: One second. Let me see what it says..
[13:13] <lmat> MonkeyDust: You know...the safest way to proceed is probably http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-via-grub2-using-linux .
[13:13] <wilee-nilee> Siebjee, in depth https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto
[13:14] <MonkeyDust> lmat  try ./install-depot blah
[13:14] <Layke__> blazemore: I don't know how to copy/paste from terminal, but it says something along the lines of... NVIDIA Could not open the device file /dev/nvidia0 (input/output error). Then also Fatal error : No screens found
[13:15] <blazemore> Layke__: Did it suddenly stop working one day, or had you just installed a new graphics driver?
[13:15] <Layke__> blazemore: It also says. xinit : Giving up.  unable to connect to X server.  No such file or directory
[13:15] <blazemore> rymate1234: This might be what you're looking for https://code.google.com/p/realtek-8188cus-wireless-drivers-3444749-ubuntu-1304/
[13:15] <lmat> MonkeyDust: That's where the chmod is. it's in ./install-depot-multisystem.sh !
[13:16] <Layke__> blazemore: Just before lunch, my system hung. I could move the mouse cursor, but the screen just stopped refreshing/updating. I left it an hour and went for lunch. Came back and was still hanging.  Reboot.
[13:16] <MonkeyDust> lmat  i never had to do a chmod, not sure what you mean
[13:16] <Layke__> blazemore: And when it came back, it did this.
[13:16] <Siebjee> wilee-nilee, i know what apt-get does, however, its running once in a while on my pc. Whithout me having configured that i want to update automatically...
[13:16] <lmat> MonkeyDust: the script does the chmod. The command I typed for you is from install-depot-multisystem.sh . You didn't do the chmod, it did.
[13:16] <lmat> MonkeyDust: I'm guessing your /media directory has  rwxrwxrwx ?
[13:17] <MonkeyDust> lmat  ok, so now you can create a live usb stick?
[13:17] <Layke__> blazemore: I'd be happy installing/wiping anything to try and get it working again. Just don't know where I'm suposed to start. I guess apt-get install nvidia-173-updates ??
[13:17] <lmat> MonkeyDust: lol. I didn't run it. I don't want to run it because it makes me feel icky.
[13:17] <wilee-nilee> Siebjee, Sure,  dist-upgrade is a cli command, it does not run unless you do it.
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> lmat  what does?
[13:18] <blazemore> Layke__: Honestly, I'm not familiar enough with nVidia graphics drivers to feel comfortable recommending anything
[13:18] <lmat> MonkeyDust: install-depot-multisystem  makes me feel icky.
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> lmat  type sh install-dep [tab]
[13:18] <Siebjee> wilee-nilee, Thats what i figured as well. Could it be that a script is executing it ? For example: I have puppet managing this pc as well, and i configured puppet to have the ssh daemon to be always up-to-date
[13:19] <MonkeyDust> it then installs like any other program, nothing to feel icky about
[13:19] <Layke__> blazemore: Just so I have more to research (I'm having to use lynx in temrinal atm)... What should I be searching for? Problems with startx not starting?
[13:19] <Layke__> I don't really know what startx is, I guess that's the GUI? So I shouldbe Googling for that?
[13:19] <wilee-nilee> Siebjee, I have no idea what puppet is. The key here is details.
[13:19] <blazemore> Layke__: Look for how to reinstall nvidia graphics drivers
[13:20] <blazemore> Siebjee: Puppet will use apt-get to keep sshd upt-o-date
[13:20] <MonkeyDust> Layke__  X is the GUI, so it's start X
[13:20] <blazemore> Layke__: "startx" is a command which starts the X server; on Ubuntu it will dump you at your default desktop if you're already logged in
[13:21] <Layke__> Okay thanks. Yeah, so the startx error looks to be nvidia related.. since it says.. NVIDIA: Could not open device file /dev/nvidia0 (Input/Output error)_
[13:22] <lmat> Layke__: Have you run  sudo service lightdm restart    ? (I'm just seeing a few of your posts, so I'm not up-to-date on your problem
[13:22] <lmat> )
[13:22] <rymate1234> blazemore: no idea if they work as firefox refused to load the page
[13:22] <lmat> Layke__: I've had a problem with X not starting and it looked like what was happening is that the monitors weren't set up by the time lightdm tried to start, so lightdm failed.
[13:22] <rymate1234> imma download onto usb
[13:23] <blazemore> rymate1234: wget https://realtek-8188cus-wireless-drivers-3444749-ubuntu-1304.googlecode.com/files/rtl8192cu-tjp-dkms_1.6_all.deb; sudo dpkg -i rtl8192cu-tjp-dkms_1.6_all.deb
[13:24] <Layke__> lmat: Will try now....
[13:24] <Layke__> lmat: When I run sudo service lightdm restart it takes me to a screen that has lots of services and their status. Starting... bla bla [OK]
[13:25] <Layke__> But yeah, running that, and then startx doesn't help. I'll try and just remove all drivers
[13:27] <lmat> Layke__: ahh, not working then :(
[13:28] <Layke__> lmat: Just curious.. What is lightdm.. Light Display Manager.. (from my Googling)
[13:28] <Layke__> But what does it actually do?
[13:28] <Siebjee> blazemore, that is strange, then i'm still wondering wher it comes from. Any clue how to persue this ?
[13:28] <rymate1234> Layke__: the login screen
[13:29] <rymate1234> blazemore: problem
[13:29] <rymate1234> i apparently dont have dkms installed
[13:29] <blazemore> Siebjee: You could stop Puppet from keeping that package up-to-date
[13:29] <blazemore> rymate1234: "sudo apt-get -f install"
[13:29] <blazemore> rymate1234: That'll pull in the dependencies for that deb
[13:29] <rymate1234> yeahhh thats not the problem
[13:29] <rymate1234> problem is my network issues
[13:29] <HELLoBC> help
[13:29] <Siebjee> blazemore, Fair enough. Any other ideas if that fails? I've already checked all the cron files
[13:30] <blazemore> Siebjee: That'll be it
[13:30] <blazemore> Siebjee: The Puppet Master is sshing in and running it. Check your auth logs
[13:30] <Layke__> Okay. Well I've just apt-get remove nvidia-current and apt-get install nvidia-current
[13:30] <Layke__> Hopefully a restart now might fix it..
[13:30] <Layke__> Will reconnect in a minute for any other advice if this doesn't work :)
[13:31] <blazemore> rymate1234: Your network is so broken that it won't do apt-get -f install?
[13:31] <rymate1234> yes
[13:31] <blazemore> If you run it, it'll tell you what packages to install
[13:31] <rymate1234> it fails when downloading the packages
[13:32] <rymate1234> i get "-11 - system error"
[13:33] <rymate1234> wat do
[13:34] <Siebjee> blazemore, Thanks for the auth.log, didn't think of that one yet. It seems that my snmp daemon is executing '/usr/local/bin/sysinfo updates' which is doing an 'apt-get -s dist-upgrade'
[13:36] <rymate1234> ok
[13:36] <rymate1234> tethering with my phone appears to work
[13:36] <rymate1234> yay~
[13:37] <blazemore> rymate1234: Careful if you're on a capped connection
[13:37] <rymate1234> heh
[13:37] <rymate1234> i have 1GB
[13:37] <rymate1234> >google code is for over 18s
[13:37] <layke_> No use :( Are there config files for startx? Could I perhaps try removing them? (Still can't log in to GUI). Just takes me straight to terminal and startx fails with errors saying cannot access /dev/nvidia0
[13:37] <rymate1234> top
[13:38] <rymate1234> lel
[13:38] <blazemore> layke_: Did you already post the exact error message?
[13:38] <blazemore> rymate1234: You can still wget that deb
[13:38] <rymate1234> i know
[13:38] <rymate1234> i got the deb
[13:38]  * rymate1234 went into windows to download it
[13:38] <layke_> blazemore: Yeah. I had to type it though. I will type it again..
[13:39] <blazemore> no wait layke_ I can scroll up
[13:40] <rymate1234> k lets reboot
[13:40] <layke_> This is it... : NVIDIA: Could not  open the device file  /dev/nvidia0 (Input/Output  error).
[13:40]  * rymate1234 stops tethering
[13:40] <layke_> Plus it also says, Fatal Server Error: no screens found
[13:40] <blazemore> layke_: sudo chmod 0666 /dev/nvidia*
[13:41] <rymate1234> ok
[13:41] <rymate1234> i hope this driver works
[13:41] <blazemore> rymate1234: Don't forget to blacklist the old modules
[13:41] <rymate1234> i did
[13:41] <blazemore> rymate1234: OK cool just checking
[13:41]  * rymate1234 pings google.
[13:42] <rymate1234> yay
[13:42]  * rymate1234 works
[13:42] <blazemore> rymate1234: That's good news :)
[13:42] <rymate1234> why does my irc client have auto /me
[13:42] <rymate1234> wtf ipad
[13:42] <layke_> blazemore: Says,  cannot access, no such file or directory. Could it be that my GFX just so happened to die?
[13:43] <rymate1234> if your grx card died layke_ you would see nothing on your screen
[13:43] <layke_> blazemore: Should the devide be accessible/viewable at /dev/nvidia cause nothing is mounted there on my machine
[13:43] <layke_> rymate1234: I'm on terminal at the moment? Maybe my mobo has some basic built in gpu? I'm not all too sure! Just guessing what logically could explain..
[13:44] <blazemore> !nomodeset | layke_
[13:44] <rymate1234> blazemore: its working now, thanks!
[13:44] <layke_> Thanks. What's the actual setting? I know how to change boot settings. (But can't click on links from my terminal window)
[13:44] <Guest2828> did a reinstall and now steam or any other purchased software does not have source in usc are those servers down?
[13:45] <layke_> @ blazemore Just add nomodeset to my boot?
[13:45] <blazemore> layke_: Sure, try it once and see if it works
[13:46] <layke_> Okay. :) Back in a sec.
[13:47] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828, Have you looked at your sources.list to see what is commented out, and I assume run updates?
[13:50] <Guest2828> yeah usually when i goto reinstall previous purchased software after logging into usc I get a list but now there is nothing and when I try the regular route I get no source available on the install page, but in short the sources for purchased software does not come in until after u try to reinstall
[13:50] <raub> What causes a long statement in the terminal to stop scrolling?
[13:50] <gordonjcp> raub: pipe the output to less, if you mean what I think you mean
[13:50] <gribouille> hi
[13:51] <cfhowlett> gribouille, greetings
[13:51] <raub> gordonjcp: let's say I have a long statement (say dkms then pipe to a few commands)
[13:51] <gribouille> I have a bootable ISO, and I would like to boot it from a USB key
[13:51] <raub> Now, I want to go back and edit it
[13:52] <raub> Sometimes I cannot see the entire statement, just part of the beginning and then have to guess
[13:52] <blazemore> raub: Edit the number of lines of scrollback in gnome-terminal - I believe it's set to 500 by default
[13:53] <blazemore> raub: I believe both Konsole and Terminator allow unlimited scrollback also
[13:53] <blazemore> gribouille: Are you on Windows at the moment?
[13:53] <gribouille> blazemore, no, ubuntu
[13:53] <wilee-nilee> gribouille, ISO of what, and what OS are you running?
[13:54] <blazemore> gribouille: Ubuntu comes with a startup disk creator (it's called that if you search for it)
[13:54] <raub> blazemore: it is not scrollback as in history or buffer
[13:54] <gribouille> blazemore, but the ISO I want to start is not ubuntu
[13:54] <blazemore> gribouille: What is the ISO?
[13:54] <gribouille> blazemore, a seagate iso
[13:55] <blazemore> gribouille: Oh I see. Well you can *try* the startup disk creator, or install unetbootin. But no promises.
[13:55] <wilee-nilee> gribouille, unetbootin, multisytem loader are a couple.
[13:56] <gribouille> but can unetbootin copy any kind of ISO, or just linux?
[13:56] <kyme> hi, is there any way to fix gwibber for twitter?
[13:56] <blazemore> kyme: Depends what's wrong with it?
[13:56] <wilee-nilee> gribouille, Any is a misnomer it can depend on the iso.
[13:57] <gribouille> wilee-nilee, I mean any bootable isso
[13:57] <kyme> I have 12.04 and and tweet feeds are not anymore updating.
[13:58] <kyme> I'm aware that Twitter has upgraded their API. But this gwibber got affected. Is there anyway to fix it?
[13:58] <wilee-nilee> gribouille, I realize that, I suspect it will load the seagate iso depends on any voodoo they have done, there are linux distros that use specific loaders, so a little investigation is needed on occasion.
[14:00] <Arroyo1010> will my keyrings work if i just backup my ~/.local/share/keyrings dir, and restore it?
[14:00] <kyme> I can't find way to fix Gwibber for Twitter. It won't display already since Twitter have upgraded their API etc snce June 4 .
[14:02] <Ch4rAss> Hi, I can't boot to live cd of ubuntu 13.04 from my sd card located at /dev/mmcblk0. It throws following error during installation: “unable to find a medium containing a live file system”. Any way to say installer to boot from /dev/mmcblk0? I was able to select it on debian wheezy.
[14:03] <Vec> How long does the "cleaning up" part of the 13.04 install usually take? Its been ca. 6 minutes now >..< - I'm pretty sure its near instant on my previous installs
[14:03] <Guest2828> wilee-nilee, I just ran through software sources all is good, the only missing sources are the repo's for purchased software which I can't get until I attempt to install the purchased software
[14:03] <mirak> hello
[14:04] <mirak> I want to embed grub2 in a partition but i have an error. " warn: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists."
[14:04] <mirak> why is that ??
[14:05] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828, You might ask on #ubuntu-steam
[14:06] <wilee-nilee> mirak, This raid or something other than a msdos partitioning
[14:06] <wilee-nilee> gpt...etc
[14:07] <mirak> wilee-nilee: ok, I though it wouldn't mater
[14:07] <mirak> wilee-nilee: I can do loadconfig file i believe, I did that with LVM
[14:08] <Guest2828> wilee-nilee, steam is only one program that I can't have access to there are more than a dozen other purchased software I can't install, steam is the least of the problems the other software I would love to get back, maybe if i log onto like humble bundle and go through the usc install route on they're site might work ganna try that see if does something
[14:08] <mirak> also where updategrub stores on wich harddrive grub will embed to ?
[14:08] <mirak> where is that info stored
[14:09] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828, You might check the ubuntu forums as well, maybe start a thread big user base and must be many purchasing, I never have myself. ;)
[14:09] <darpan> hii
[14:09] <gribouille> hi
[14:09] <darpan> having problems to switch from xubuntu to ubuntu
[14:10] <kyme> Anyway idea how to fix gwibber for Twitter ? Tweets won't display anymore.
[14:10] <gribouille> when I have a bootable ISO image, I can burn it to a CD and boot from the CD. I would like to do the same, but with a USB key
[14:10] <mirak> I want that updategrub don't touch /dev/sda
[14:10] <wilee-nilee> mirak, If I recall, you are trying to avoid a boot partition correct? If so make sure that is included in your info.
[14:10] <mirak> wilee-nilee: no I am not doing that anymore.
[14:10] <mirak> wilee-nilee: just normal gpt.
[14:10] <mirak> wilee-nilee: and hybrid mbr.
[14:11] <wilee-nilee> mirak, This uefi?
[14:12] <mirak> wilee-nilee: since i want to dual boot, I like to have another small partition with just grub that chainload on other systems. I copied my old system to be a dual boot one, so I believe if i don't change something, the old system will try to put grub in the mbr when it upgrades
[14:12] <mirak> wilee-nilee: kind of, it's prepared to be able to boot on uefi when i will update the hardware someday
[14:12] <wilee-nilee> mirak, normally a update-grub does not insert it, however I have not messed with what you have.
[14:13] <mirak> wilee-nilee: ok you mean it must always be manual with grub-install or with the installer
[14:13] <Guest2828> wilee-nilee, ok the humble bundle route didn't work either I log onto ubuntu one site and click the usc install , and a window comes up asking what app to use for this link lol, must be broke
[14:13] <mirak> wilee-nilee: ok, that's fine for me.
[14:13] <wilee-nilee> mirak, Should be.
[14:15] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828, Not sure, how is the humble bundle packaged?
[14:16] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828, probably is a deb and you can use software center or gdebi
[14:16] <blazemore> wilee-nilee: They're provided as deb files
[14:16] <wilee-nilee> blazemore, Thanks, I figured as such.
[14:17] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828,
[14:17] <wilee-nilee> Guest2828, YOU get that?
