[07:03] <Zach_> the iso i have now is "kubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-amd64"
[07:03] <cfhowlett> !md5sum|Zach_, and you know you have the right ISO because checksumed.  right?  RIGHT?
[07:03] <rohitkav> what to do with that flintser
[07:03] <rohitkav> could you help
[07:04] <AcidRain2013> rohitkav: pretty much, remove all packages that you have installed related to pidgin-facebook
[07:04] <AcidRain2013> and install the packages from the repo located on the link that flintser gave u
[07:05] <flintser> rohitkav: apt-get purge pidgin
[07:05] <rohitkav> ok flintser
[07:05] <rohitkav> will try . Thanks AcidRain2013
[07:05] <AAA> rohitkav: before you remove anything, can you show us apt-cache policy apt-cache policy
[07:05] <AcidRain2013> yeah, purge
[07:05] <rohitkav> it says :N: Unable to locate package apt-cache
[07:05] <rohitkav> N: Unable to locate package policy
[07:05] <AAA> rohitkav: er. mis paste there. apt-cache policy pidgin-facebookchat
[07:05] <g00053> hey so I have a seperate partition for my media ...whats the proper way to mount it ? right now it shows up as a drive and I just simlink the folders to ~/
[07:06] <flintser> g00053: isn't the symlink sufficient?
[07:06] <rohitkav> AAA, flintser  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1680283/
[07:07] <g00053> well it works . i'm just not sure if i'
[07:07] <g00053> m doing it the correct way
[07:07] <rohitkav> AAA, flintser  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1680285/
[07:08] <flintser> g00053: if it does what you want i don't see a reason to do anything else
[07:08] <g00053> i'm going to have to re-do my partitions shortly so my point is if there is a cleaner way to do it . i might as well
[07:08] <AcidRain2013> g00053: gparted?
[07:09] <g00053> AcidRain2013, not what I was asking ut thanks

[07:11] <AAA> rohitkav: do you actually use pidgin?
[07:11] <vampire> how do i detect all installed versions
[07:11] <Zach_> exactly :) and even if i do brick it, it has a warranty ;)

[07:14] <rohitkav> I got issue configuring it for facebook
[07:14] <AAA> rohitkav: are you using pidgin? it looks like apt-get purge PIDGIN-* (caps on purpose) by be the only way
[07:14] <r0nald> Ubuntu is hilarious. I am doing CPU-intensive work on my Thinkpad X220 laptop, which is quite slow in general, but becomes many times faster when I remove the AC power and the laptop runs on battery. Any ideas how to fix that?
[07:14] <rohitkav> no I am not using pidgin AAA
[07:15] <chaz68> Maybe the new kernel image I installed tonight helped.  lightdm.log staying tame...
[07:15] <vbgunz> r0nald: even though it speeds up, soon enough it's back to slower speeds right?
[07:15] <dr_willis> r0nald:  ive seen similer things happen in windows. The power saveings demon/stuff is confised.
[07:15] <AAA> rohitkav: then apt-get purge pidgin-* and carefully check before you type y
[07:16] <flintser> rohitkav: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=12323289 that might help
[07:18] <r0nald> vbgunz, I will check that now. But any ideas how to fix this?
[07:18] <rohitkav> I even have this error : http://paste.ubuntu.com/1680305/
[07:19] <r0nald> vgunz: yes, that is the case.
[07:19] <vbgunz> I believe it's power management and that it might be ondemand. You'll usually see that behavior. If I'm right, you can try forcing power management to something less intensive
[07:19] <AAA> rohitkav: after the purge did you apt-get update?
[07:20] <rohitkav> Not yet AAA
[07:20] <Kartagis> rohitkav: not checking carefully before -y cost me a OS re-install once
[07:21] <rohitkav> Yes, but flash error was even before Kartagis

[07:21] <rohitkav> shall I do update AAA

[07:33] <robotnut> anyone innstall ubuntu on a phone?
[07:33] <dr_willis> robotnut:  not really doable at this time.. its not been released
[07:33] <robotnut> tablet?
[07:34] <AAA> robotnut: why note? they released the sdk
[07:34] <u99874> 8-)
[07:34] <dr_willis> !arm
[07:35] <AAA> robotnut: am I missing something? http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/phone
[07:35] <mutanic> Hi everyone, newbies here...can I learn from you all about Linux usage?
[07:36] <AAA> mutanic: do you have a specific question?
[07:36] <robotnut> aaa, well they havent released a phone with yet
[07:36] <robotnut> website states you can install it - but it only works with android and when you plug in as a desktop
[07:37] <robotnut> so its more of a hack
[07:37] <robotnut> im curious about phone, tablet use of ubutu as it stands now - if anyone is actively using it etc etc
[07:37] <AAA> robotnut: all good things start as 'just a hack' ;-)
[07:37] <robotnut> aaa, agreed
[07:37] <robotnut> however - looking for something stable enough to make a switch
[07:37] <mutanic> I just execute apt-get upgrade, later on I'm getting something saying that I'm missing ruby1.9.1 gem, gem executable won't run
[07:37] <robotnut> im on ios right now and i cant take it anymore
[07:37] <AAA> still 8:22:24 left to see what the tick,tock riddle _really_ means
[07:37] <robotnut> im about to throw my iphone, ipad and apple tv out the window
[07:38] <dr_willis> some ubuntu tablet anoucement in like... 8 hrs from now.
[07:38] <mutanic> how to fix ths? I already do the research but still unable to fix it
[07:39] <mutanic> anyone?
[07:39] <vishnuku> hi
[07:40] <robotnut> dr_willis, yeah been watching that
[07:40] <robotnut> i hope they officially launch a tablet with ubuntu or something
[07:40] <robotnut> preferably one from a large vendor
[07:42] <Rabblerouser> Upgrading to 13.04 alpha since I'm about to wipe this partition anyways. How long of a wait am I in for?
[07:42] <dr_willis> like i need another tablet. ;) i got like 4 now.
[07:42] <vishnuku> #java
[07:42] <robotnut> well as soon as i see something worth while - im trading in all my ios devices for something better
[07:43] <dr_willis> Rabblerouser:  it will be like 1.x+gb of data..
[07:43] <robotnut> android has my attention - i.e. nexus
[07:43] <robotnut> however - im paranoid with google
[07:43] <robotnut> so would rather have something independent
[07:43] <dr_willis> but you trust apple? :P
[07:43] <robotnut> nope
[07:43] <robotnut> been wanting to move away from it
[07:43] <dr_willis> you must have at one time.. to buy 3 of their devivces.
[07:43] <robotnut> but i got all the ios devices i have as gifts so i figured id use them until they die
[07:44] <robotnut> here i am 5 years later
[07:44] <robotnut> lol
[07:44] <dr_willis> I cant really imagine what i would do with a Ubuntu tablet. that i dont allready do on my android tablets.
[07:44] <robotnut> same thing
[07:44] <robotnut> just not a part of google
[07:44] <robotnut> thats all
[07:45] <dr_willis> i dont see why the vendor name matters that much
[07:45] <dr_willis> its still googles Os
[07:45] <robotnut> hrmmmm
[07:45] <robotnut> not really
[07:45] <robotnut> android is google
[07:45] <robotnut> ubuntu is not
[07:45] <FloodBot1> robotnut: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:45] <robotnut> unless im mistaken here
[07:46] <dr_willis> on the phone - i thought both ran side by side. but ive not seen any real info on that.
[07:47] <Michiellllaptop> ola, I have a problem updating... anyone who I may bother? --- I get this error: http://i.imgur.com/qrBDKsH.png  : I did both, yet it keeps telling me the same
[07:47] <vnc786> on my MB i m having vga and hdmi port and using ubuntu and xp so question is can i share my screen with other monitor with HDMI and my console will be thru vga
[07:47] <vnc786> hello everyone..
[07:48] <dr_willis> Michiellllaptop:  what does df show for your /boot/ partition?
[07:48] <Michiellllaptop> df?
[07:49] <dr_willis> the command is df   yes.,.
[07:49] <Michiellllaptop> /dev/sda7         103129   74363     23442  77% /boot
[07:49] <dr_willis> now try df -h   to see it in human terms. ;)
[07:50] <Michiellllaptop> /dev/sda7       101M   73M   23M  77% /boot
[07:50] <dr_willis> Your /boot/ is 101mb? thats way way tiny
[07:50] <Michiellllaptop> ok, it's been like that for ages
[07:50] <Michiellllaptop> can I make it bigger?
[07:51] <dr_willis> cd /boot/
[07:51] <dr_willis> then see how many kernels you got installed.
[07:52] <dr_willis> http://askubuntu.com/questions/2793/how-do-i-to-remove-or-hide-old-kernel-versions-to-clean-up-the-boot-menu
[07:52] <dr_willis> you should uninstall all but the 2 newest normally. always keep at least one old working kernel
[07:52] <Michiellllaptop> http://i.imgur.com/xYUEEdX.png
[07:53] <dr_willis> You do know you can do TEXT pastes... and not needing to do screenshots all the time
[07:53] <dr_willis> !info pastebinit
[07:53] <dr_willis> looks like you got 3 kernels installed.. Unionstall the oldest one
[07:54] <flintser> does nvidia-current just install the same driver as i can get from http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-310.32-driver.html
[07:54] <Michiellllaptop> i need synaptic to do that? i can't just do it manually?
[07:55] <dr_willis> that guide i posted mentions like 5+ ways to do it
[07:56] <dr_willis> flintser:  should the same if the versions are the same. but i think the .deb does some other things.. and is suitable to be auto-updated and so forth. so its best to use the .deb/repos version
[07:59] <oldude67> i also look at it this way, if it has a .deb/ repo version then its usually quite stable.
[08:00] <vnc786> on my MB i m having vga and hdmi port and using ubuntu so question is can i share my screen with other monitor with HDMI and my console will be thru vga
[08:00] <Michiellllaptop> dr_willis, thanks! :)
[08:03] <Rabblerouser> The download for Raring Ringtail was quick enough, but the install. :o

[08:06] <dr_willis> what apps?
[08:08] <SushiDude> My /boot partition is full, I can't seem to update to the latest version of the kernel. How should I free up space on /boot?
[08:09] <robotnut> thoughts on zentyal anyone?
[08:09] <dr_willis> Uninstall old kernels SushiDude  that you dont need

[08:10] <dr_willis> robotnut:  i have no need for it on a home network
[08:10] <robotnut> just hope it supports samba4 like it says it does
[08:10] <dr_willis> ssh is the way to admin a server.
[08:10] <cfhowlett> itry, not announced yet and we don't know.  patience
[08:10] <dr_willis> i dont really need a gui to admin samba
[08:10] <Myrtti> sakkemo: google drive :-P
[08:11] <darkmutt> dr willis i wanted to lock sublime text2 and google appengine launcher
[08:11] <sakkemo> dr_willis: thanks, I'll look into it; Myrtti: nah, not convinced of the web interfaces of the moment :)
[08:12] <dr_willis> darkmutt:  if they dont have a proper .desktop files for the apps - that may be an iussue
[08:12] <SushiDude> But why does apt-get autoremove not get rid of all of these unneeded kernels?
[08:12] <dr_willis> SushiDude:  what if you DO need them?
[08:12] <cfhowlett> SushiDude, to protect the unway and the tired ...
[08:12] <cfhowlett> unwary
[08:13] <Rabblerouser> Where does Grub point to for Ubuntu?
[08:13] <dr_willis> keep at least 2-3 old kernels.. just in case
[08:13] <dr_willis> Rabblerouser:  what?
[08:13] <dr_willis> !grub2
[08:15] <_Dude_> so that problem i was having yesterday - i just let the package manager uninstall the xorg quantal packages included with 12.04.2 and downgrade to the ones that come with 12.04.1 when installing the ia32-libs and (knock on wood) everything seems stable
[08:15] <_Dude_> steam is installing
[08:15] <darkmutt> !unity
[08:16] <Rabblerouser> I set up GRUB was installed to the Ubuntu partition, then made a grub.bin with a terminal command, and set my boot.ini to point to the grub.bin so I didn't remove my original bootloader (don't knock the method D:). Was wondering if Grub pointed to places like the boot.ini does
[08:17] <dr_willis> look at  the /boot/grub/grub.cfg to see how it looks for things/files and so forth
[08:18] <Rabblerouser> Ah, thanks
[08:18] <leotr> hello! I found in ubuntu-server-12.04.2.iso image in directory preseed following files: cli.seed, ubuntu-server-minimal.seed, ubuntu-server-minimavm.seed and ubuntu-server.seed. In isolinux/txt.cfg menu there is Install Ubuntu Server option that refers to ubuntu-server.seed. Does anything refer to cli.seed or ubuntu-server-minimal.seed?
[08:18] <dr_willis> I tend to have windows on one HD and ubuntu on a 2nd..
[08:18] <dr_willis> no need to do fancy things.
[08:19] <SushiDude> Now /boot has space but how do I make sure that the latest version of the kernel is install properly?
[08:19] <cfhowlett> leotr, perhaps a question for #ubuntu-server   ???
[08:19] <SushiDude> installed*
[08:20] <leotr> cfhowlett: wow, thanks
[08:20] <dr_willis> if you did a apt-get update. apt-get upgrade. it should pull in the latest. or a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade SushiDude
[08:20] <dr_willis> SushiDude:  this is why you keep 2-3 old kernels.. if the latest fails.. you boot to an earlier one
[08:21] <cristian_c> Hi
[08:21] <cristian_c> I turned on the suspension, but when I resume not everything is as before
[08:21] <Rabblerouser> What's the difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade
[08:21] <cristian_c> for example, the chromium browser is no longer opened
[08:22] <cristian_c> If I launch it from terminal, I get: pcilib: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.1/resource: File or directory not found
[08:22] <cristian_c> that would be the output of the monitor, but I have no other information
[08:22] <cristian_c> Any ideas?
[08:22] <dr_willis> cristian_c:  if you reboot it all works, untill try to suspend/restore again?
[08:23] <cfhowlett> Rabblerouser, dist-upgrade pulls in packages that have been added to the current release.  upgrade merely upgrades the installed packages.
[08:23] <darkmutt> so how would I lock something to unity sidebar if it doesn't have a proper .desktop file?
[08:24] <cristian_c> dr_willis, after suspension and resume, I think pc is not rebooted, because the logout is not executed (a black screen with strigns appears)
[08:24] <cristian_c> *strings
[08:26] <dr_willis> suspend dosent work well with all hardware. I never use the feature.
[08:26] <dr_willis> hibernate - may or may not work better.
[08:26] <cristian_c> dr_willis, I'll try to reboot after suspension/resume
[08:29] <SushiDude> Well, everything seems to be working. Thank you!
[08:30] <dr_willis> been like 4 people in here in the last 4 hrs with  /boot/ being full... ;)
[08:34] <SushiDude> dr_willis, Well there is an issue then, it should not be keeping that many old kernels.
[08:37] <Kartagis> !xen
[08:41] <santosh> help me
[08:41] <bady_> what?
[08:42] <khildin> http://www.ubuntu.com Tick, tock, tablet time! 7 hours to go.... :)
[08:42] <santosh> my irssi is malfunctioning, can you mention me?
[08:42] <YOUConsulting> Hello, I had a second monitor connected yesterday and I have it disconected today. Today my max resolution changed to a lower setting. I tried to change it back but the max resolution is lowerd :(
[08:42] <AAA> santosh: what is up?
[08:42] <dr_willis> people who make theyr own /boot/ partition should know what they are doing...
[08:43] <dr_willis> YOUConsulting:  what video chipset?
[08:43] <santosh> When someone mentions me, '4' appears before their name.
[08:44] <auronandace> santosh: screenshot
[08:44] <YOUConsulting> dr_willis,  no clue but I have an Elitebook 8740w running ubuntu 10.10 installed via wubi
[08:44] <dr_willis> !10.10
[08:44] <auronandace> YOUConsulting: 10.10 is no longer supported
[08:44] <dr_willis> I suggest upgradeing to a newer release..  and run away from wubi.. ;)
[08:45] <YOUConsulting> dr_willis, auronandace   so I still use it and it worked fine yesterday until the seconday monitor disconnected
[08:45] <YOUConsulting> hate unity
[08:45] <dr_willis>  so?
[08:45] <auronandace> YOUConsulting: you don't have to use unity if you use 12.04+
[08:45] <dr_willis> theres other desktops...
[08:46] <jwtiyar> i have 12.04.1 lTS , its too laggy some times cpu goes to %99 , i cant do anyhting
[08:46] <_Dude_> yes, like kubuntu or xubuntu, or just apt-get install your favorite desktop environment
[08:46] <dr_willis> you could check your xorg.conf and rename it if it exists. and restart. that might straighten it out.  use lspci to see what chipset you got. since thats a core bit of info to know.
[08:46] <jwtiyar> i have activsted 2gb swap area
[08:47] <auronandace> the amount of people who avoid upgrading due to the _default_ desktop boggles my mind
[08:47] <dr_willis> jwtiyar:  run htop in a term. see whats sucking down the cpu.
[08:47] <YOUConsulting> let's drop the version I use, can we get to the helping part
[08:47] <dr_willis> and here my wife can sit down at a Unity desktop and have it figured out in just a few min.
[08:47] <auronandace> YOUConsulting: no, look up the word unsupported
[08:47] <dr_willis> i allready gave you some help....
[08:48] <dr_willis> move/rename/backup xorg.conf and see if it helps.. determine your chipset.
[08:48] <AAA> dr_willis: if it's a default unity then all her searches are also going to canoncical
[08:48] <invariant> Does anyone run msmtp here?
[08:48] <jwtiyar> dr_willis, its program?
[08:48] <dr_willis> AAA:  she loves the amazon search feature.
[08:49] <dr_willis> jwtiyar:  htop is a program.. yes.
[08:49] <AAA> dr_willis: awesome! as long as the user knows
[08:49] <AAA> dr_willis: most users probably don't know that
[08:51] <santosh> auronandace: http://i.imgur.com/Qu8vBJ2.png
[08:51] <dr_willis> most users dont know much of anything.. this channel has shown that. ;)
[08:52] <jwtiyar> dr_willis, i dont know whick one killing my cpu
[08:52] <auronandace> santosh: hmm, most odd
[08:52] <jwtiyar> dr_willis, i dont know whick one killing my cpu
[08:53] <cfhowlett> AAA, look at %cup and %Mem
[08:53] <cfhowlett> %cpu
[08:53] <dr_willis> jwtiyar:  htop sorts the apps by order of what is using the most cpu.. watch it run. and when you see the load spike.. look at it and see whats using it
[08:53] <dr_willis> it can sort by other values also. ;)
[08:53] <auronandace> santosh: is that the way its set to highlight you?
[08:53] <vincent_> dr_willis,  xorg.conf to xorg.conf.old and rebooting worked. I Thank you
[08:54] <santosh> auronandace: wait, I
[08:54] <minimec> santosh: That's an irssi screenshot, right? Go to your .irssi directory and check the 'config' file. Search for the number '4'. I guess you only have to delete or change something in that config.
[08:54] <santosh> I'm restarting irssi
[08:54] <invariant>  I have some code which connects to port 25 directly. Can I use msmtp to provide that?
[08:55] <santosh> now mention me again..
[08:55] <jwtiyar> dr_willis, its nit stable some time compiz or some time unity panel , they are about %37 or %45
[08:56] <under_hood> \leave
[08:56] <cfhowlett> santosh
[08:56] <AAA> dr_willis: I was eluding to the 'ubuntu is spyware' accusations that have been made
[08:56] <dr_willis> jwtiyar:  whats your system specs?
[08:56] <santosh> cfhowlett: thanks
[08:56] <dr_willis> AAA:   just more FUD.
[08:57] <jwtiyar> dr_willis,  2gb of ram  ,64bit , 320 HDD
[08:57] <dr_willis> im suprised there hasent been bigger deal over the samsung efi  breakage issues.
[08:57] <santosh> I edited config file manually, which is discouraged. Its working fine now. :)
[08:57] <dr_willis> jwtiyar:  just idling here. and i dont have compiz or X or unity go over 5% of cpu ussage
[08:57] <vnc786> i kept some files in /tmp dir after reboot it got deleted ? how deletes that
[08:57] <cfhowlett> dr_willis, everyone seems to have accepted the story "linux/ubuntu breaks computers!"
[08:58] <dr_willis> jwtiyar:  using a fairly low end nvidia card
[08:58] <vnc786> who deletes that ..?
[08:58] <jwtiyar> dr_willis, i have intel core i3
[08:58] <jwtiyar> dr_willis, its new i have installed ubuntu in fresh install
[08:59] <AAA> vmeson: /tmp files are temporary and cleared on reboot
[08:59] <dr_willis> vnc786:  where does mount show your /tmp/ mounted to?
[08:59] <cfhowlett> vnc786, /tmp probably gets swept as part of boot process.  bad idea to store files in any /temp or /tmp directory
[09:00] <vnc786> tmp is mounted on my partition ? is that u want ?
[09:01] <AAA> vnc786: files in /tmp/ do not exist between reboots
[09:01] <vnc786> i was aware that tmp gets clean but i have manually moved my data to tmp then to..
[09:02] <AAA> vnc786: to /somefile.ext ?
[09:03] <AAA> vnc786: can you paste the mv command you used?
[09:03] <ubuntuw1204> what is tick tock tablet time on ubuntu page
[09:03] <ubuntuw1204> hi
[09:03] <ubuntuw1204> Hola!
[09:03] <cfhowlett> !mod
[09:03] <dr_willis> we dont know. ;)
[09:03] <cfhowlett> ubuntuw1204, greetings
[09:04] <ubuntuw1204> what is tick tock tablet time on ubuntu page?
[09:04] <dr_willis> we dont know. ;) .....
[09:04] <geektech713_> new HTC Tablet with Ubuntu i guess
[09:06] <vnc786> the file was not much imp it was around 3 gb movie i thought i would keep for time being n will mv to some other place but my bad day ...
[09:06] <ubuntuw1204> how differnt is ubuntu from debian?
[09:06] <{456c76616e6f}> Hey everyone, I was wondering if it's possible to load the ubuntu desktop installation without the graphical environement.
[09:06] <ubuntuw1204> babilen: Hi!, Hola!
[09:07] <darkmutt> i'm pretty sure there was an option for that
[09:07] <vnc786> is there possibility 2 recover from /tmp
[09:08] <woofer> allo, how would i add lines to the end of a text file using the command line?  for example, i would like to add stuff to the end of the hosts file
[09:08] <dr_willis> woofer:  echo and  the > redirection feature of bash
[09:08] <darkmutt> woofer you can do that or edit it with vi for example
[09:08] <AAA> vnc786: if you copied a file to /tmp/some.file then rebooted. there is no reasonable way to get it back (anything can be retrieved for a price...)
[09:08] <dr_willis>  dont get > and >> backwards. :) one overwrites.. one appends.
[09:09] <khildin> woofer: start VI or nano from commandline... :P
[09:09] <dr_willis> echo line1 > foo.txt
[09:09] <dr_willis> echo line2 > foo.txt
[09:09] <dr_willis> cat foo.txt
[09:09] <dr_willis> then try with >>
[09:10] <dr_willis>  >> appends.  > overwrtes
[09:10] <woofer> dr_willis,  could you give me an example of adding say:   <IP_ADDRESS> moo   to /etc/hosts
[09:10] <woofer> i'm not very good with vim yet....
[09:10] <dr_willis> echo line3 >> file.txt
[09:10] <woofer> your right, that would be a good idea.
[09:10] <dr_willis> why are you even messing with hosts? BACK IT UP first.
[09:10] <AAA> you'll need quotes
[09:10] <woofer> i can use vim, but very basically.
[09:11] <parente>  ciao a tutti
[09:11] <darkmutt> how would i lock an application without .desktop files to the unity sidebar?
[09:11] <vnc786> AAA: ok thanks
[09:11] <woofer> dr_willis,  cause i want to be able to type ping moo instead of typing ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:11] <dr_willis> echo 'stuff with spaces' >> filename.txt
[09:11] <dr_willis> woofer:   alias pmoo=ping <IP_ADDRESS>  ;)
[09:12] <dr_willis> darkmutt:  you could make a .desktop file for them
[09:12] <cfhowlett> What IS this?  Downloaded 12.4.2.  ISO passed md5sum.  Made a USB.  Ran USB md5sum check and ... see for yourself:  http://imagebin.org/247256
[09:12] <darkmutt> how?
[09:12] <dr_willis> when you boot the USB theres a verify option i recall
[09:12] <dr_willis> darkmutt:  find a .desktop file. copy it.. edit it as needed
[09:12] <dr_willis> darkmutt:  locate gedit.desktop
[09:12] <darkmutt> ok thanks
[09:12] <woofer> cfhowlett,  what program did all that?
[09:13] <cfhowlett> woofer, wait 1 ...
[09:13] <AAA> cfhowlett: "+0 records out" what was your command line? it looks like you may be missing quotes too
[09:13] <cousteau> some program keeps deleting a gtk bookmark
[09:14] <AAA> cfhowlett: maybe you need to `reset`` your terminal
[09:14] <cousteau> it's an smb:// address, and the bookmark has spaces in the name.  There has to be a program or something that "sanitizes" my ~/.gtk-bookmarks by deleting that entry periodically
[09:15] <cfhowlett> woofer AAA used the "Check the CD" option ... but I made a USB. Hmm.  Would that effect this?
[09:15] <cousteau> nautilus, pcmanfm and thunar all understand that bookmark, so I don't know what program can be
[09:15] <cfhowlett> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[09:15] <dr_willis> it checks the md5 sums of packages on the disk i belive not the whole disk
[09:16] <woofer> cfhowlett,  i do'nt know what AAA is.... sorry dude.
[09:16] <cfhowlett> dr_willis, right, the check CD option specifies to get the size first and pipe that ... which I did
  >> appends.  > overwrtes   thanks. taht would be bad if you didn't tell me that. heh
[09:19] <dr_willis> bash basics,  ;)
[09:19] <AAA> cfhowlett: when you do mdfsum /path/to/your/ubuntu.iso do you get an md5sum as the output?
[09:20] <AAA> cfhowlett: and I really mead md5sum
[09:20] <ubuntuw1204> AAA yes md5sum your .iso
[09:21] <cfhowlett> AAA iso checked clean.  Was attempting to verify a newly created boot USB using the recommended process.  Disregard last line of output but this was the method http://paste.ubuntu.com/1680671/
[09:21] <woofer> dr_willis,  i get this:
[09:21] <woofer> mika@e:~$ sudo echo <IP_ADDRESS> woof >> /etc/hosts
[09:21] <woofer> bash: /etc/hosts: Permission denied
[09:21] <llutz> woofer: echo <IP_ADDRESS> woof |sudo tee -a  /etc/hosts
[09:22] <woofer> ? why do i have to do this tee stuff? cause echo can't use sudo?
[09:22] <llutz> woofer: redirections doesn't work with sudo
[09:22] <woofer> roger that.
[09:23] <code-ph0y> hey guys can someone tell me why I can't make a folder in htdocs?
[09:23] <AAA> llutz: what? file redirection work with sudo? what? please explain
[09:23] <llutz> woofer: your sudo echo ends at > and doesnt afffect the file behind (so you get permission error)
[09:23] <woofer> what exactly does the tee command do / what's it used for?
[09:23] <llutz> woofer: man tee
[09:23] <llutz> aaa "doesn't"
[09:23] <woofer> who reads man file?
[09:23] <woofer> if we all did there wouldn't be a help channel.
[09:24] <code-ph0y> is it chmod?
[09:24] <llutz> you  got somethin wrong woofer
[09:24] <packetfrog> Is there a simple way to install all the manpages/docs/what not for all my installed applications/kernel/modules/everything...
[09:25] <dr_willis> they are in the repos/packae manager lists
[09:25] <AAA> llutz: if a user authenticates with sudo then the command and is executed as that user. why do you think that doesn't work with file permissions?
[09:25] <dr_willis> most get installed automatically
[09:25] <dr_willis> !man
[09:25] <code-ph0y> go it
[09:25] <code-ph0y> got it*
[09:25] <dr_willis> !dev
[09:25] <dr_willis>  i think theres some dev man pages that may not get installed by default
[09:25] <llutz> AAA yes and his command ends at >
[09:25]  * g00053 returns triumphantly after setting up dual-boot
[09:26] <g00053> huzzah!
[09:26] <woofer> thanks adbot. if i wanted to develop for ubuntu, i would have never thought to look at ubuntu's website.
[09:26] <packetfrog> I just wanted to be sure they are there as I do not have a network connection sometimes.
[09:26] <packetfrog> Thanks.
[09:26] <cfhowlett> g00053, congrats.  Go forward, be safe, have fun
[09:26] <woofer> llutz,  what's this AAA you're talking about?
[09:27] <AAA> llutz: ok. I didn't see the full command. can you give the pastebin link?
[09:27] <g00053> cfhowlett, thanks for your help
[09:27] <woofer> ooh, sorry, AAA is a dude in here. hahah. i'm dumb.
[09:27] <cfhowlett> g00053, no worries
[09:27] <llutz> AAA: any "sudo echo foo > bar" will fail, thats what he tried
[09:27] <llutz> AAA: will fail if bar needs root-permissions*
[09:28] <code-ph0y> how do you login as root?
[09:28] <cfhowlett> !root|code-ph0y,
[09:28] <code-ph0y> lmao
[09:29] <code-ph0y> loving it!
[09:29] <AAA> llutz: that is a quote issue. sudo `echo foo > bar` should create a bar file with the contents of foo
[09:29] <llutz> AAA no its not . The file after the > is not open by the process running under sudo, but by the shell, which isn't
[09:29] <woofer> how come a long time ago i heard that su stood for suppose user  and not super user  ?
[09:30] <woofer> and sudo meant suppose user do
[09:30] <llutz> AAA: sudo -c sh "echo foo >bar" would do
[09:31] <dr_willis> su = switch user
[09:31] <dr_willis> you dont su to root in ubuntu. you use sudo
[09:32] <llutz> AAA: and btw using backticks will give an error
[09:32] <woofer> suppose user   switch user    super user ....... hmmm dont know what to believe.
[09:32] <woofer> thanks llutz, that ... tee thingy is handy.
[09:32] <AAA> llutz: yeah, I was typing off the cuff. but you get waht I was saying
[09:32] <cfhowlett> woofer, switch user.  test it yourself
[09:32] <llutz> AAA: i got it but you're still wrong :)
[09:32] <woofer> how would i test what you're saying? cfhowlett
[09:32] <AAA> su - change user ID or become superuser
[09:33] <AAA> llutz: yeah, I know. thanks for rubbing it in :)
[09:33] <dr_willis> since becoming root - is switching your user id to 0
[09:33] <dr_willis> but thats disabled by default on ubuntu
[09:33] <llutz> su - substitute user
[09:33] <woofer> another definition of su !!!!
[09:33] <dr_willis> su = studly user
[09:33] <dr_willis> ;)
[09:34] <woofer> my puppy is soft user
[09:34] <cfhowlett> woofer, don't you have more than one user account?  One for admin and one for daily use?  su into the other account
[09:34] <woofer> right. i just have my one account.
[09:34] <llutz> some user, whatever. substitute is what we learned .. in thoses days.
[09:34] <dr_willis> supperdupper user
[09:34] <woofer> how would i then make a txt file and then whatever is in it append it to the end of another text file?
[09:34] <llutz> woofer: cat file >> file2
[09:35] <woofer> dr_willis,  that's only for backup accounts on a crapple computer.
[09:35] <woofer> oh, cool. thanks llutz   knew it was something simple.
[09:35] <woofer> llutz,  your nick makes me keep thinking of lulzsec heh
[09:36] <llutz> woofer: (part of it) is my name much longer than anybody even thought about lulsec
[09:38] <woofer> llutz,  you mean, your name is much older than lulzsec?
[09:38] <llutz> yes
[09:40] <woofer> aye. thanks fer the help guys. ye are wise. (i rhyme)
[09:41] <Kartagis> so, I'd installed !xen a long time ago, and now I need to switch kernels. when I do, I get "/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open object file: No such file or directory". why am I getting that? I've got /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
[09:50] <g00053> guys how do i find out my video driver info in bash /
[09:51] <Kartagis> g00053: lspci
[09:52] <g00053> Kartagis, that lists the card not the driver i think
[09:53] <woofer> if i screw with my bashrc i assume i have to log off / on to have it take any effect right?
[09:53] <Kartagis> g00053: try lshw
[09:53] <Kartagis> try source .bashrc
[09:53] <Kartagis> woofer: try source .bashrc
[09:56] <nabblet> hi, i rsynced a file but the sha1sums are not the same. rsyncing again, rsync finishes successfully but checksums remain unchanged and different Oo any ideas?
[09:58] <MadsRC> nabblet, the timestamps changed, causing the checksum to change?
[09:59] <nabblet> MadsRC, i don't think so - otherwise any sha1sum would fail, wouldn't it?
[10:00] <histo> MadsRC: timestamps don't change checksums to change
[10:00] <histo> MadsRC: nor does names
[10:00] <Kartagis> so, I'd installed !xen a long time ago, and now I need to switch kernels. when I do, I get "/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open object file: No such file or directory". why am I getting that? I've got /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
[10:00] <MadsRC> My bad :)
[10:00] <histo> nabblet: are you rsync'ng to different filesystems?
[10:00] <histo> although it shouldn't matter
[10:01] <nabblet> histo, let me check - although it should not matte
[10:01] <nabblet> histo, let me check - although it should not matter
[10:01] <nabblet> histo, maybe it's rsync?
[10:01] <nabblet> rsync --partial --progress -e 'ssh -p 55557' Ghana/moooserver/9200.16384.WIN8_RTM.120725-1247_X64FRE_SERVERHYPERCORE_EN-US-HRM_SHV_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5.ISO mister@<IP_ADDRESS>:~/Downloads/9200.16384.WIN8_RTM.120725-1247_X64FRE_SERVERHYPERCORE_EN-US-HRM_SHV_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5.ISO
[10:02] <nabblet> ^ that's the command
[10:02] <histo> nabblet: Try doing it locally to a different directory and see if the hash matches
[10:04] <nabblet> histo, before i do that i'll transfer the file from scratch
[10:04] <histo> nabblet: also maybe the transfer is stoping ransfer is stopping and partial is messing eiwth you. Check the file size on the other end.
[10:05] <nabblet> histo, file sizes are the same
[10:05] <histo> nabblet: how are you checking the hashes then?
[10:06] <nabblet> histo sha1sum
[10:06] <nabblet> both systems are ubuntu
[10:07] <histo> nabblet: try transfering locally and checking hash somethign like rsync -P /path/to/blah.iso /tmp/blah.iso
[10:09] <nabblet> histo, can't do - i'm on a "discless" server and the image is 3 GB and on a 4 GB stick :P- lucky, huh
[10:09] <paws> why am i getting E: Unable to locate package ubuntu-xen-server?
[10:09] <nabblet> histo, anyway, i will restransfer from scrath
[10:09] <histo> !info ubuntu-xen-server | paws
[10:09] <histo> nabblet: No need as rsync should transfer the differences in the file.
[10:09] <Ondra> hello
[10:10] <paws> histo: so how can i install xen server?
[10:10] <nabblet> histo, but it does not - thant's my problem
[10:10] <histo> nabblet: Have you re run the rsync command to see if it dropped a few bytes somehow.
[10:10] <nabblet> histo, i rsynced several times, rsync says everything is all right, but the sha1sums differ

[10:10] <RajeevK> I have installed ubuntu at another system, installed lamp server(working fine), copied drupal instance & dump database...but when I try to browse that by localhost/folder_name, it says "Forbidden, You don't have permission..."
[10:11] <Ondra> I have Ubuntu 12.10. It has Qt Creator 2.5.2 in its repositories. How can I get Qt Creator 2.7.0 (beta)? I found it here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtcreator but I don't know how to get it from raring... Thanks!
[10:11] <histo> !backports | Ondra
[10:12] <Ondra> RajeevK: Does the document root folder have set permissions? (i.e. read for user running lamp)
[10:12] <histo> RajeevK: what are the permissions of the folder where the files are hosted?
[10:12] <histo> s/folder/directory/
[10:13] <paws> i know i have to use to apt-get
[10:13] <histo> nabblet: trying to transfer the files locally will be faster.
[10:13] <histo> !ppa > paws
[10:13] <RajeevK> var/www/troop & permission is set to "root" as I see
[10:13] <sveinse> Is there a way to control dns priority in dnsmasq/NM in precise? I'm having problems resolving certain private DNS entries as my machine is connected to private lan and a public wlan
[10:14] <histo> RajeevK: ls -l /var/www/
[10:14] <sveinse> Its often selecting to use the wifi's DNS server which can't resolve entries which reside on the private lan
[10:14] <RajeevK> Ondra: I am logged in from the admin I hope as this is the user which I was created
[10:15] <invariant> Which program converts a CD wav file to a list of mp3 files?
[10:15] <histo> sveinse: you can add your own dns servers in network manager gui. Or add them to the resolvconf head file.
[10:15] <RajeevK> histo: All are root root
[10:15] <histo> invariant: ffmpeg or many others
[10:15] <histo> RajeevK: yes but the attributes???
[10:15] <RajeevK> histo: 4096
[10:16] <histo> RajeevK: can you paste the line with the directory in here so we can see the dwrx-r-....
[10:16] <invariant> histo, I mean like a complete command then.
[10:16] <invariant> histo, saying ffmpeg is like saying that one needs to use a computer.
[10:16] <RajeevK> histo: one sec
[10:16] <histo> invariant: ffmpeg -i somefile.wav -o somefile.mp3
[10:16] <invariant> histo, oh, I figured it would be more difficult :) THanks
[10:16] <histo> invariant: or use rythmbox to rip the CD to ogg files
[10:16] <invariant> histo, well, no.
[10:17] <harbor> quick question: how do i /list on an irc server using empathy?
[10:17] <invariant> histo, I want a list of  mp3 files.
[10:17] <sveinse> histo: Well. resolv.conf is autogenerated by NM, so it will be overwritten. Secondly, I don't want to override the DHCP given dns server by either nic's. I just want some kind of metric mechanism for dns server. Is that possible?
[10:17] <dr_willis> !alis | harbor
[10:17] <histo> invariant: Keep in mind the ubuntu variant of ffmpeg used to not have mp3 support built in. I'm not sure if this is still the case.
[10:17] <invariant> histo, this just creates one and doesn't do silence detection, etc.
[10:17] <Kartagis> so, I'd installed !xen a long time ago, and now I need to switch kernels. when I do, I get "/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open object file: No such file or directory". why am I getting that? I've got /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
[10:17] <harbor> dope. thank you
[10:17] <invariant> histo, actually, I would even prefer to get it in flac format.

[10:18] <invariant> histo, so, wav -> list of flac format.
[10:18] <histo> invariant: I'm sure ffmpeg may have an option to import multiple files. If not you could do something with find. like find . -iname '*.wav' -exec ffmpeg -i {} -o {*.mp3} /;  not sure if this would work but my syntax maybe right.
[10:19] <invariant> histo, you didn't read what I said.
[10:19] <histo> invariant: ffmpeg uses the -o *.ogg if you want flac or whatever.
[10:19] <invariant> histo, I said "to" not "from".
[10:19] <sqrt7744> hi, I'm not really an awk expert, when I run this: ps x | awk '/chrome\ /{print $1}'  I get a column of PIDs. I'd like them to be in a comma separated list instead, any ideas?
[10:19] <histo> invariant: huh?
[10:19] <invariant> histo, one file to multiple outputs based on the silence in the file.
[10:19] <RajeevK> histo: Did you get that ?
[10:19] <invariant> histo, the wav file was created as a rip of a CD.
[10:20] <histo> invariant: ahh so you have a wav file of the entire cd?
[10:20] <invariant> histo, yes
[10:20] <histo> RajeevK: chmod o+r -R /var/www/troop990    ???
[10:20] <histo> RajeevK: maybe it's something with your paache setup
[10:20] <histo> RajeevK: hold up for someone else don't use my command.
[10:21] <RajeevK> histo: Ok
[10:21] <histo> invariant: Don't know of a way to do that. let me look for something
[10:21] <histo> invariant: try in ffmpeg or someone here may know of another tool.
[10:21] <Ondra> !packaging
[10:22] <Ondra> !backports
[10:23] <histo> RajeevK: ask your question again all in one line with details
[10:23] <histo> !details | RajeevK
[10:23] <histo> RajeevK: see if someone else knows
[10:23] <RajeevK> Ok
[10:25] <Kartagis> RajeevK: what's your exact issue?
[10:25] <RajeevK> I have downloaded 12.10 today & installed it in another system. I have installed lamp-server in there & phpmyadmin as well & it seems working fine. I have copied drupal instance from first machine to new one & dump DB too
[10:25] <Kartagis> and?
[10:26] <RajeevK> But when I am trying to navigate localhost/site_name, it says - "403 Forbidden, You don't have permission to access / on this server"
[10:26] <Kartagis> RajeevK: does .htaccess exist?
[10:26] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Where to find ?
[10:26] <nabblet> histo, ok, it works - bruteforce rsync from scrath. anyway, if it would not have helped, i next step would be to use the --checksum option and/or buffer flush
[10:27] <Kartagis> RajeevK: that error means you don't have an index.html to begin with
[10:27] <fredriksk> just installed xscreensaver. Most of the screensavers in the list gives me "not installed" when I clicked on them. How can I install them?
[10:27] <Kartagis> RajeevK: ls -a
[10:27] <RajeevK> Kartagis: I am not even able to navigate inside the folder
[10:28] <Kartagis> RajeevK: do you get permission denied?
[10:28] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Yes
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> RajeevK  were you familiar with ubuntu, before this installation?
[10:28] <Kartagis> RajeevK: is that /var/www/something?
[10:29] <dr_willis> fredriksk:  apt-cache search xscreensaver  and install the ones you want
[10:29] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Its inside /var/www/troop990
[10:29] <RajeevK> Kartagis: I can't go inside troop990 here
[10:29] <MaxFrames> hello
[10:29] <histo> nabblet: that's weird what happened. You may want to fsck the filesystems.
[10:29] <histo> nabblet: or check dmesg for errors
[10:29] <RajeevK> MonkeyDust: No sir...but I am using it for sometime like 3-4 months
[10:30] <Kartagis> RajeevK: sudo chmod 775 /var/www/troop990
[10:30] <MaxFrames> is there a way to make so that a limited user (not-sudoer) can access an ntfs partition? this system dual boots windows xp and ubuntu, and the ubuntu user must be able to access the ntfs partition
[10:30] <MaxFrames> when he tries to access it, he's requested super user authentication
[10:30] <MaxFrames> i.e. the partition is mounted but permissions don't allow him to access itr
[10:30] <dr_willis> you mount it from fstab with the right ntfs-3g options MaxFrames
[10:30] <dr_willis> or run ntfs-config and configure it that way
[10:31] <dr_willis> !ntfs-3g
[10:31] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Now I can access the folder, but still blank page at navigation
[10:31] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Means at localhost/troop990
[10:31] <MaxFrames> thanks, I'll try
[10:32] <Kartagis> RajeevK: tailf /var/log/apache2/access.log
[10:32] <histo> Kartagis: all his permissions are jacked. Do all sub files need to be o+r  for apache? I wasn't sure
[10:33] <Kartagis> histo: chmod and chown will do
[10:34] <MaxFrames> reading about ntfs-config... but it looks like what it does is already taken care of (i.e. the ntfs partition is already mounted at boot)
[10:34] <RajeevK> Kartagis: You need those lines ?
[10:34] <Kartagis> RajeevK: what lines?
[10:35] <Kartagis> RajeevK: yea, pastebin it somewhere
[10:35] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Ok
[10:36] <Kartagis> brb
[10:37] <RajeevK> Kartagis: http://pastebin.com/tHGqNzQV
[10:39] <dr_willis> MaxFrames:  if you have a fstab entry for it. then you just need to use the right options
[10:40] <Ondra> histo: I have used the backports, upgraded using "apt-get upgrade" (it downloaded 32 MB of files) but qt creator is still 2.5.2 (I looked at apt-get changelog). Problem is, that 2.7.0 (which I want) is in raring, not quantal. Can I backport that? Thanks
[10:40] <g00053> is whitespace important in fstab ?
[10:40] <Kartagis> RajeevK: tailf /var/log/apache2/error.log
[10:41] <dr_willis> a tab one space or a dozen dozent matter g00053
[10:41] <g00053> ah okay
[10:42] <histo> Ondra: Maybe you can find a ppa for it
[10:42] <skjoedt> I know this is a trivial question but how come Ubuntu uses linux kernel 3.5 while in december 3.7 was released and yesterday 3.8 came out. I imagine it comes down to driver compatibility but isn't it backward compatible?
[10:42] <histo> !ppa | Ondra
[10:42] <histo> Ondra: or you'd be stuck building it from source
[10:42] <dr_willis> !latest | skjoedt
[10:42] <histo> skjoedt: stability
[10:42] <histo> skjoedt: ubuntu is not a rolling release. If you ever had experience with one you would understand why.
[10:43] <nabblet> histo, yes
[10:43] <histo> nabblet: yes??
[10:43] <RajeevK> Kartagis: http://pastebin.com/8VFe5ST7
[10:44] <nabblet> histo, the server i am using is a lenovo ideapad - not the best thing. also it started to fall apart (that why it became a server, sitting in the corner of a room) - so hdd error are plausible
[10:44] <nabblet> histo, you said i should check the file system
[10:44] <nabblet> histo, sorry, the delay of my replay ripped it out of context  :P
[10:44] <Kartagis> RajeevK: show me the output of ls -ld /var/www/troop990
[10:45] <Kartagis> so, I'd installed !xen a long time ago, and now I need to switch kernels. when I do, I get "/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open object file: No such file or directory". why am I getting that? I've got /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6

[10:46] <oeeve> Hi, what would be a good program if I would like to automatically .zip and backup a bunch of folders to a different drive once a day? ..making a new .zip every day while keeping the last 10 copies or someting
[10:46] <histo> nabblet: that's wierd I've never had that issue although I never really was checking.
[10:46] <nabblet> histo, grep for I/O -> also no error messages
[10:47] <RajeevK> Kartagis: chmod: changing permissions of `/var/www/troop990': Operation not permitted
[10:47] <histo> oeeve: cron job and you could use something like logrotate to delete e the old ones I guess
[10:47] <nabblet> histo, guys in #debian suggested that a bit flipped and the caches didn't register that (obviously) so that's why rsync thought everything was OK
[10:47] <skjoedt> histo, I was using arch linux for a while and mostly what I experienced was incompatibility between packages and libraries. I dont know where the kernel lies in all of this. I imagined that kernel developers were restricted to keep backward compatibility a must. Where is the rule that makes this not so simple?
[10:47] <Kartagis> RajeevK: sudo chmod 775 /var/www/troop990;sudo chown www-data:www-data /var/www/troop990
[10:48] <histo> skjoedt: Your experience wiht arch is a start. Imaging all the issues with modules etc... There are issues with newer kernels and other things.
[10:48] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Ok..done
[10:48] <oeeve> histo thanks;)
[10:48] <RajeevK> Kartagis: But still cant't access the URL
[10:49] <histo> Kartagis: I think the issue is the files in ..../toop990/*

[10:49] <SerenE_SparK> what is this please can someone explain me

[10:50] <skjoedt> histo, Are there any official milestones for when kernel 3.6 will be deployed in native ubuntu?
[10:50] <Kartagis> SerenE_SparK: that someone is browsing your site with firefox on windows
[10:51] <Kartagis> SerenE_SparK: ff8, to be precise
[10:51] <skjoedt> histo, or could they theoretically jump directly to 3.8?

[10:52] <SerenE_SparK> Kartagis:how can i do the same in Linux
[10:52] <Esor> j
[10:52] <Kartagis> SerenE_SparK: do you have apache installed
[10:52] <Kartagis> ?
[10:52] <SerenE_SparK> yes
[10:53] <Kartagis> browse your site on linux and watch the logs
[10:53] <SerenE_SparK> Kartagis:do you know java?
[10:53] <Kartagis> no, why?
[10:53] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Yes it did
[10:54] <RajeevK> Kartagis: So I have to use this for all project which I have copied there ?
[10:54] <[LgO]Aionicus> Good morning all :) hows you all doing
[10:54] <Kartagis> RajeevK: depends, but you might be better off
[10:54] <SerenE_SparK> i had a code in java which uses connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0");
[10:54] <Kartagis> doing it
[10:54] <SerenE_SparK> here it was required
[10:55] <Kartagis> SerenE_SparK: and this is related to ubuntu how?
[10:56] <SerenE_SparK> for doing this operation in Linux machine i need an exec() command to be operated so that i can get the browser version detected and can be further utilised
[10:56] <[LgO]Aionicus> anybody here have some expertise in getting ubuntu running next to a windows 8 uefi installation (i would delete the win 8 but not allowed by employer).
[10:57] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Many many thanks
[10:57] <Kartagis> np RajeevK
[10:58] <dr_willis> [LgO]Aionicus:  its not a Samsung Laptop is it?
[10:58] <[LgO]Aionicus> can i state its worse ? its a HP laptop
[10:58] <dr_willis> Samsungs can be Bricked when installing Ubuntu  or reinstgalling windows onto them
[10:58] <[LgO]Aionicus> first time i tried with linux mint / opensuse it completely ruined windows 8 EFI and it took me half the week to get our licenses sorted/win8 sorted
[10:59] <[LgO]Aionicus> now im trying with the secure-remix 12.10 (ubuntu)
[10:59] <[LgO]Aionicus> but i can only get it shown in legacy mode :(
[10:59] <RajeevK> Kartagis: What I have to do here to use drush ?
[11:00] <[LgO]Aionicus> i got a rewriteable DVDR and a couple of usb sticks here , but its kinda stressing me out :( i long for the old bios
[11:01] <Kartagis> RajeevK: I usually extract it to /usr/local/bin/drush
[11:03] <Ondra> histo: I found a PPA, thank you.
[11:04] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Why I am not able to use simple copy & paste in this install...only CMD cp is working for copy
[11:04] <Kartagis> RajeevK: you could also do sudo apt-get install drush, but I'd recommend getting it from d.o
[11:04] <Kartagis> RajeevK: huh?
[11:04] <dr_willis> you are trying to drag/drop using the file manager? or did you run nautilus as root RajeevK ?
[11:05] <RajeevK> dr_willis: I am trying to copy paste from mouse right click or ctrl+c
[11:05] <ThinkT510> RajeevK: from where to where?
[11:05] <dr_willis> RajeevK:  so you are running a file manager window as a user. and you are tryng to copy to your users Home directory? or some system directory?
[11:06] <RajeevK> From Download folder to /usr/local/bin/
[11:06] <dr_willis> RajeevK:  and you do realize you need root/sudo rights to copy things to that directory?
[11:06] <[LgO]Aionicus> was about to say that willis :)
[11:07] <RajeevK> dr_willis: DOn't know
[11:07] <dr_willis> This is  Kinda a fundamental concept with linux.
[11:07] <dr_willis> RajeevK:  think about it..  You had a system with 100 users.. you think they all could just copy files to any system directories?
[11:08] <dr_willis> RajeevK:  use sudo/gksudo and gain root rights then you can copy files to the system directories
[11:08] <[LgO]Aionicus> in order to move stuff around on linux RajeevK (outside your "my documents" equivelent from windows , your $home) you need the root right , so generally :
[11:08] <RajeevK> But I am logged in from admin user..right ?
[11:08] <[LgO]Aionicus> cd $home , cd Downloads , then sudo cp the files you wanna copy to /usr/local/bin
[11:09] <dr_willis> a admin user can GAIN root rights.. it does not always have root access
[11:09] <dr_willis> thats what sudo/gksudo does for you
[11:09] <dr_willis> elevates your power!
[11:09] <[LgO]Aionicus> sudo allows you to run stuff as admin without actually having to be root@box , you still need the pw for root thou
[11:09] <RajeevK> dr_willis: Ohk...that means I cant copy here from simply GUI but will have to use CMD
[11:10] <dr_willis> RajeevK:  or run nautulus as root.. as i mentioned 10 min ago.. but thats a Bad habbit
[11:10] <[LgO]Aionicus> yep , unless you open up your filemanager with (sudo) rights
[11:10] <dr_willis> nautilus as root = ive seen peopel trash their systems with it..
[11:10] <[LgO]Aionicus> oh willis , ive seen worse
[11:11] <RajeevK> dr_willis: Thanks
[11:11] <dr_willis> if i really want a file manager as root. i tend to open a shell and use 'sudo mc' ;)
[11:11] <Touhou11> There's nothing wrong with using root if you're careful. Often people type "sudo" so often it becomes pointless
[11:11] <[LgO]Aionicus> ive seen people install windows 8 , and ruin my day with it ! :D
[11:11] <ThinkT510> RajeevK: what are to trying to copy to /usr/loical/bin/ and why?
[11:11] <dr_willis> then i close the mc when im done
[11:11] <RajeevK> ThinkT510: I was trying to copy 'drush' inside that
[11:12] <ThinkT510> !info drush
[11:12] <[LgO]Aionicus> RajeevK
[11:12] <ThinkT510> RajeevK: that isn't how you install things
[11:12] <bhaiguy> hey, subway irc doesnt work on my 12.10! help!
[11:12] <[LgO]Aionicus> cant you just do sudo apt-get install drush?
[11:12] <dr_willis> It would be best to use drush from the repos.. unless you have a good reason not to..
[11:12] <Kartagis> [LgO]Aionicus: drush in ubuntu repos is old
[11:13] <dr_willis> bhaiguy:  and whats subway irc?
[11:13] <RajeevK> I downloaded it from drupal.org
[11:13] <dr_willis> RajeevK:  and did you look for a newer ppa first?
[11:13] <[LgO]Aionicus> lemme check drupal.org quickly
[11:13] <Kartagis> RajeevK: cd /usr/local/bin/;tar zxvf ~/drush-7.x-5.8.tar.gz
[11:13] <bhaiguy> dr_willis: https://github.com/thedjpetersen/subway/
[11:14] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Oh..thanks
[11:15] <bhaiguy> hello?? any1?
[11:16] <waraqa> Hi,
[11:16] <bhaiguy> **hey, subway irc doesnt work on my 12.10! help!**
[11:16] <[LgO]Aionicus> what error do you get bhaiguy?
[11:17] <bhaiguy> [LgO]Aionicus: let me make a paste of it
[11:17] <dr_willis> and did you check the subway irc support channel/forums. ;)
[11:18] <[LgO]Aionicus> well considering im going crazy with this efi issue, why not take a look at his issue (subway) while im waiting for this crap to sort itself out ;p
[11:18] <waraqa> I want to request Ubuntu cds, Who should I contact?
[11:18] <dr_willis> waraqa:  buy them from cheapbytes.com perhaps?
[11:19] <Touhou11> waraqa: They don't send out Ubuntu CDs anymore, you have to pay
[11:19] <DJones> waraqa: SHipit no longer sends out cd's, if you contact your Ubuntu loco, they may have some they could send you though
[11:19] <dr_willis> 12.10 needs a dvd  these days ;)
[11:19] <waraqa> No official site for selling ubuntu?
[11:20] <dr_willis> the ubuntu.com store?
[11:20] <DJones> waraqa: Which country are you in? I'll point you towards a local Ubuntu channel
[11:20] <RajeevK> Kartagis: Can't use "drush dl", it gives - "Directory /var/www exists, but is not writable. Please check directory permissions."
[11:20] <bhaiguy> [LgO]Aionicus: here it is... http://paste.ubuntu.com/1681416/
[11:21] <[LgO]Aionicus> k gimme a sec
[11:21] <waraqa> I want to participate in student exhibiton and offer ubuntu cds and maybe other linux distros
[11:21] <waraqa> I live in UAE
[11:21] <bhaiguy> ok
[11:22] <[LgO]Aionicus> what i can see so far bhaiguy is that it crashes on a dependency
[11:22] <[LgO]Aionicus> 4111 error Failed at the<EMAIL_ADDRESS>install script.
[11:22] <bhaiguy> i see tat too... wat should i do?
[11:23] <[LgO]Aionicus> well lemme check what it crashes on
[11:23] <waraqa> All exhibitors are students and I need some resources for promoting ubuntu
[11:24] <DJones> waraqa: There is an Ubuntu UAE loco team at http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ae That gives an IRC channel of ##ubuntu-ae The website has a contact name on it as well
[11:24] <RajeevK> [LgO]Aionicus: How to make "Directory /var/www" writable so that I can download drupal by "drush dl" ?
[11:24] <DJones> w 23
[11:24] <waraqa> DJones: I will check
[11:24] <Physicist> Hi fellas. I want to install backtrack programs in my ubuntu, but I need know the possibilities...
[11:25] <Physicist> Invasion Programs.
[11:25] <dr_willis> possibilty of totally trashing your system Physicist
[11:25] <Physicist> Test Invasion programs.
[11:25] <[LgO]Aionicus> @Physicist , you need to add the backtrack repo's and then you can update em , but keep in mind that bt is build / designed for it . so you gonna get a lot of bumps on the road
[11:26] <savagecroc> how do you do SSH key forwarding with rsync?
[11:26] <Physicist> Undestood. I have a Live BT CD.. I will install in TRIPLE BOOT...
[11:27] <DJones> Physicist: If the packages are available in the Ubuntu repo's you can install them from synaptic etc, if they're 3rd party repo's or backtrack repo's you'll need to ask the maintainer or in the backtrack channel, they will probably have different dependencies and could well break your system
[11:27] <Physicist> I have so much space :-|
[11:27] <DJones> !backtrack | Physicist
[11:27] <bazhang> Physicist, get bt support in their channel
[11:27] <[LgO]Aionicus> @Rajeevk chmod it , think its sudo chmod 775 /var/www (might wanna google the numbers thou )
[11:28] <RajeevK> [LgO]Aionicus: Done
[11:28] <RajeevK> [LgO]Aionicus: Its working...Thanks
[11:28] <Physicist> I know and already did it. Thank you all.
[11:28] <[LgO]Aionicus> @bhaiguy i checked for you but it seems the is a error in the iconv bit itself , you really gonna have to past that paste @ the support forum of subway for this matter , its to advanced for my knowledge
[11:29] <Physicist> I think better install from zero .. I have space.
[11:29] <bhaiguy> [LgO]Aionicus: oh thankyou for your time! :)
[11:30] <[LgO]Aionicus> @bhaiguy what you could do thou as a last resort is get the latest version from his git repository , see if that works ,might even try an older version to see if problem appears on same spot
[11:31] <[LgO]Aionicus> @all -> anybody know why i can get my ubuntu live cd to boot as EFI but when i try to install it it does not state it can find my windows 8 install?
[11:31] <ThinkT510> !uefi | [LgO]Aionicus been through this
[11:32] <waraqa> DJones: There is nobody in their irc, what loco can usually offer ?
[11:32] <bhaiguy> [LgO]Aionicus: i tried infinite times with the latest version...
[11:33] <[LgO]Aionicus> ye i have been trough that
[11:33] <[LgO]Aionicus> been trying to get this hell sorted for 5 work days in a row (5x8 hours)
[11:33] <[LgO]Aionicus> first time it actually borked up my entire windows 8 , boss was not to happy about it
[11:33] <ThinkT510> [LgO]Aionicus: you're doing this on a work machine?
[11:34] <[LgO]Aionicus> Ye , work bought a bloody hp lappie for development however they failed to pay attention and got forked with a windows 8 EFI junked lappie
[11:34] <[LgO]Aionicus> thing is , i get the black boot screen so it should boot as EFI , just wondering why it does not state : Install Ubuntu alongside others
[11:35] <vnc786> i want to do samba sharing for xp (3)users only how do i do that there is no domain ...any hint
[11:35] <DJones> waraqa: Loking at the UAE website, there is a link to https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ae that mentions a mailing list, I'd suggest sending an email to the mailing list and asking on that
[11:35] <ThinkT510> [LgO]Aionicus: i don't know, i've happily stayed away from all things (u)efi
[11:35] <squig> does any one know if 12.04.2 fixes the does not install on systems with more than one disk issue? or where I find a change list of fixes in the installer?
[11:35] <flintser> !samba | vnc786
[11:35] <waraqa> DJones: ok, thanks
[11:36] <DJones> waraqa: You're welcome, good luck getting hold of some installation media
[11:37] <num7> hi, i add a new user to a group in /etc/gshadow with "gpasswd -A newuser group" but i can't remove it from this gruop with "gpasswd -d newuser group" Why?

[11:37] <stan879nz> Hello if i want a user not to be able to use my copy of a program would i have to change the permissions of the folder
[11:38] <flintser> stan879nz: you can use chmod
[11:38] <flintser> !permissions | stan879nz
[11:38] <stan879nz> 700? but would the user be able to install his own copy of the program
[11:39] <vnc786> ubottu: do u know how do i share folder only for xp users with 777 perm since other user shuld not get view ...
[11:39] <flintser> stan879nz: change the folder permissions so that only you can use it. 770 makes you, and your group to have all, and rest will have no permissions
[11:40] <Eagleman> Any idea why most MAC addresses dont get a respond from my ISP's dhcp server?
[11:40] <stan879nz> 770 thanks if the other users install there copies of the software would they clash if they were both running?
[11:41] <flintser> stan879nz: i'd like to hear the whole thing, what are you trying to do in what kind of environment?
[11:42] <Malsasa> Hello, is Size field necessary in debian/control file? Or just Installed-Size field?
[11:44] <stan879nz> everyone in my family has there own steam account and we all dont want to share the same file structure, so i would like everyone to have there own so they dont have to logout to change users
[11:44] <dr_willis> hmm.. do steam games install to the users home on linux? or a system wide location like they do on windows?
[11:45] <stan879nz> sys wide
[11:45] <flintser> stan879nz: logout from ubuntu or logout from steam? steam installs in home
[11:45] <dr_willis> steam is weird on linux. ;)  theres parts of it on the system ive seen. then first run of it.. some stuff goes to the users home
[11:45] <flintser> steam installs globally, but games install in /home/user
[11:46] <flintser> and configs too go in /home/user/
[11:46] <flintser> .steam is the folder
[11:46] <DJones> dr_willis: I would expect it'd be to /home, I was having a play on sunday and I needed a password to install steam itself, but I wasn't prompted for one when it got to installing a game
[11:47] <flintser> so stan879nz: you can just install steam, every user has their own folder in /home/user/.steam ehere the configurations and games go
[11:47] <cr000> hi! i have installed kubuntu installed native and it is not able to run my wireless card, i want now to start it in a virtual machine to route the wireless through the vm as wire ethernet
[11:48] <flintser> no extra work to do
[11:48] <cr000> is there a way to start the kubuntu native installation inside a vm without using vmware?
[11:48] <dr_willis> cr000:  what os is running the vm?
[11:49] <cr000> fedora18 64b
[11:49] <flintser> cr000: install virtualization platform, and theb you can just use the .iso and mount it in the vm
[11:49] <dr_willis> you can set up vbox to run  from a real hard drive.. but its not reccomdnedd.. or you could image the installed hd to a image file and point vbox to that
[11:49] <dr_willis> seems weird that fedora has drives for the wifi but not ubuntu.
[11:50] <stan879nz> thanks for the info about were all the files are going. so we wouldnt be able to be login all at the same time because steam it self is global
[11:50] <flintser> stan879nz: actually i don't know, it might even be possible
[11:51] <flintser> cr000: you can do disk2vhd to create .vhd of the ACTUAL hard drive or partition
[11:51] <flintser> then mount it in vm
[11:51] <flintser> easier to just do clean install in vm
[11:51] <cr000> it is important to use the kubuntu later natively, so using iso or make a vm-file of the real partition is no solution :( i will search vbox and try this possibility
[11:52] <flintser> cr000: ok, then do what dr_willis proposed. setup vbox to run from actual hard drive
[11:53] <cr000> yes alredy downloading it ;) thanks for the help guys!
[11:59] <awaad> I am using export http_proxy="http://server:port" for http traffic, but I need to know how can I make the same thing with https and ftp traffic.

[12:02] <bono> awaad: https_proxy= , ftp_proxy=
[12:02] <dr_willis> thats too logical! ;)
[12:03] <Physicist> awaad: Do not ask to ak a question. Just send your problem and the community will answer if possible.

[12:10] <shomon> sending keylogger data via dash??
[12:10] <shomon> anyone have info on this?
[12:10] <dr_willis> !fud
[12:11] <dr_willis> if you want to disable the amazon addlens thats trivial to do .
[12:11] <dr_willis> !adlens
[12:12] <shomon> so for most users it will be on by default
[12:13] <Kartagis> dr_willis: so, I'd installed !xen a long time ago, and now I need to switch kernels. when I do, I get "/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open object file: No such file or directory". why am I getting that? I've got /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
[12:13] <roundyz> \q
[12:13] <roundyz> \q
[12:13] <DJones> shomon: Yes its on by default but its takes a few seconds to disable it
[12:13] <RamtinA> yes you can disable it, but that was why i leave ubuntu. ubuntu was ( and is ) a great distro but this ...
[12:13] <dr_willis> Kartagis:  ive never used xen. so no idea
[12:13] <shomon> is there a sub distro where that error is corrected?
[12:13] <dr_willis> dont use the unity lens feature if you dont want it.. or turn it off
[12:13] <mobman> Hi.. I'm using ubuntu-12.04. I've accidentally deleted a .cpp file in eclipse. 'locate' shows the file is still in the folder but I cannot open it. Can anybody help me to recover the file?
[12:14] <shomon> maybe it can be patched up again not to have that default setting, regardless of canonical's choices
[12:14] <dr_willis> 13.04 is adding some 100+ more shopping lens for people to use from what ive seen
[12:14] <dr_willis> its a gconf setting i imagine. so no need to patch anything
[12:14] <DJones> shomon: Its not an error, its by design to enhance the facilities of the dash, discussion is best done in #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-discuss
[12:14] <dr_willis> mobman:  locate uses a database of files.. its not always current
[12:14] <neuro_sys> Hello could anyone check the version of the package glib-2.0?

[12:34] <[LgO]Aionicus> Quick question : Manual installation of ubuntu (secure EFI) next to windows 8 | No option to install next to system so doing a manual partition. Do i need to have a /Boot partition for this ? or is it enough to add swap / home and / mount points ? (considering there is an EFI partition)
[12:38] <flintser> [LgO]Aionicus: even swap and / should be enough.
[12:38] <flintser> i've never made separate /boot
[12:39] <flintser> sry for tripleposting, but one thing: i've also never installed on efi so i don't know do you need /boot for that. but i cant come to any conclusion why it should need one
[12:40] <ubuntuaddicted> anyone use a xbox 360 controller with linux gaming? i can't get Team Fortress 2 to work. i have tried both xpad and xboxdrv

[12:41] <jnaour> I am trying to wirte in a system fils (/etc/fstab)
[12:41] <flintser> ubuntuaddicted: it should be p&p, but tf2 doesnt support for xbox360 controller i think
[12:41] <jnaour> I need sudoer right
[12:41] <dr_willis> sudo  rights...
[12:41] <jnaour> i am trying to do something like
[12:41] <dr_willis> sudo nano file
[12:41] <DJones> jnaour: You need to use the sudo command to edit the files, eg "sudo nano /etc/fstab"
[12:41] <jnaour> sudo echo "blabla" > /etc/stab
[12:41] <jnaour> i just want to use CLI
[12:42] <dr_willis> sudo wont work with redirection like that.. Youneed a tee -a in there somewhere.
[12:42] <ubuntuaddicted> flintser, everything i read TF2 supports the controller. maybe that's only in windows?
[12:42] <flintser> !enter | jnaour
[12:42] <dr_willis> best to just use a text editor jnaour
[12:42] <ubuntuaddicted> flintser, what is p&p?
[12:42] <ubuntuaddicted> flintser, oh, plug and play. :)
[12:42] <dr_willis> and > and >> are very differnt jnaour  -  ONE will overwrite/erase the file..

[12:43] <flintser> plug and play, ubuntuaddicted. i don't see why you would want controller to pc fps ^^ but xpad and xboxdrv should work... i researched and they suggested those, but some said that since 12.04 it should be plug and play
[12:43] <DJones> Ali__: Did the suggestion I gave you earlier not work?
[12:43] <dr_willis> Ali__:  did it work then suddendly stopped? tried logging out/back in?

I want a local folder, - similar as in dropbox, - to be synched with my GNU/Linux Debian server and would like to be able to arrange differnt user privileges on files /folders for other parties to be able to download the files (e.g. https).

[12:47] <jnaour> thx dr_willis to remember me that but my problem is the same, How to add a line in a system file (with sudoer right) in a script
[12:47] <flintser> lix: ftp-server and some rsync scripts? ;D just a quick suggest
[12:48] <dr_willis> jnaour:  hit up google for 'root shell the right way ubuntu' and it should show an example of doing that using sudo and the tee command. ;)
[12:48] <dr_willis> I never can ermber the syntax.
[12:48] <jnaour> thx dr_willis I'll check that
[12:49] <lix> flintser: thanks for your reply. yes thats how I do it for myself. But I would like others, - that are unfamiliar with .htaccess config, - to be able to use such a solution as well. (e.g. ubuntu users and non-developers...) :-P
[12:50] <jnaour> Thx everybody, good bye
[12:50] <ubuntuaddicted> flintser, i've read that. i just can't get the game to register and use the controller

[12:51] <[LgO]Aionicus> 1 last question : for windows 8 (EFI) and ubuntu dual boot , do i need to setup the loader on /dev/sda , or rather on the EFI partition (/dev/sda2) ?
[12:54] <flintser> lix: nope, ftp-server is more than enough for my uses. i have public folder only write, my own folder private to me and if someone wants ftp-room i can create a folder to them with rwx for me and them
[12:54] <flintser> public has only read* ;D
[12:56] <lix> flintser: sure, I see. - but ftp is unencrypted and therefore no fiable solution for me. thanks for your suggestion anyways.
[12:56] <flintser> ftp supports ssl too

[13:00] <ozpy> Kernel 3.8 Stable. Where can I download that?
[13:01] <DTH0_> hello
[13:01] <DTH0_> what is the program used in Ubuntu 12.10 to manage wallpaper ?
[13:02] <DTH0_> it is no more "gnome-appearance-properties" it seems, and after a few updates today my "Appearance" menu is missing.
[13:04] <judgen> I am having troubles with network-manager. Every time i connect to the wireless the wired connection dies and i get no internet...
[13:05] <flintser> DTH0_: right click on desktop and change wallpaper
[13:05] <DTH0_> judgen, it's not that it dies. Rather, AFAIK your system can only use one route at the same time.
[13:05] <cfhowlett> judgen, pretty sure ubuntu requires you select one or the other for use ...
[13:05] <DTH0_> flintser, this is bringing me back to overall system parameters
[13:06] <Jeaton> my desktop crashed, I have xchat running in the background but I do not know how to recover it without killing the process and reopening it
[13:06] <flintser> DTH0_: gnome-control-center opens system settings but...
[13:06] <DTH0_> judgen, and it tends to use the more recent one. You can't use both interfaces to access Internet if that's what you mean.
[13:06] <Jeaton> is there anyway of opening that process?
[13:07] <dr_willis> Jeaton:  not that ive really seen
[13:07] <DTH0_> Jeaton, depending on your DM, in a terminal 'unity' or 'gnome-shell' should relaunch the interface.
[13:07] <Jeaton> im running cinnamon
[13:07] <ozpy> Kernel 3.8 Stable. Where can I download that?
[13:08] <DTH0_> DTH0_, if gnome-session is still active try "Ctrl-Alt-T"
[13:08] <cfhowlett> Jeaton, ...
[13:08] <dr_willis> cunnamon is not supported here. but if you mean you can see the xchat window.. and just the window manager crashed. you can restart that
[13:09] <Jeaton> yes, the window manager crashed, but I do have xchat running under the processes
[13:09] <DTH0_> Jeaton, if gnome-session is still active try "Ctrl-Alt-T". And then "your-WM-command-whatever-it-is" or "cinnamon"
[13:09] <dr_willis> you can restart the window manager from a terminal if you can get one open
[13:09] <dr_willis> and knew its name
[13:09] <Jeaton> no, i got the window manager back running, but it didnt recover any active processes I had running
[13:10] <dr_willis> then i imagine they are all zombies. ;)
[13:10] <Jeaton> heh, ok
[13:10] <Jeaton> i might switch back to either gnome or unity, cinnamon has been a pain in the ass
[13:11] <dr_willis> and its not supported here.
[13:11] <flintser> Jeaton: should've installed mint :) i dont see a reason for ubuntu+cinnamon, mint does it properly and preconfigured
[13:11] <dr_willis> i dont see much point in mint and cinniman either. ;)
[13:12] <DTH0_> flintser, I found out that "gnome-control-center background" should do the job but it doesn't. Instead, it just opens overall control center...
[13:12] <Jeaton> i dont know what I was thinking, I should have just went with gnome classic
[13:12] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:12] <Jeaton> i couldnt get use to unity, and I didnt like the new version of gnome
[13:12] <flintser> DTH0_: maybe they removed the gnome-appearance-properties and integrated all into gnome-control-center
[13:13] <dr_willis> unity works fine for me - has some neat features
[13:13] <rewarp> Jeaton. Tried KDE?
[13:13] <DTH0_> flintser, yes but even so, I don't get why it's working anymore.
[13:13] <flintser> and gnome-control-center background puts me straight into desktop background selection screen
[13:14] <Jeaton> rewarp:  yes, had KDE running right before cinnamon
[13:15] <DTH0_> flintser, well it fails on me for some reason.. as stated already sends me back to general settings without Appearance button
[13:16] <rewarp> Jeaton. I went WM/DE hopping a few months back and settled on KDE. It does take a bit of customization before it feels right.
[13:17] <flintser> dr_willis: i use unity too. i hid the launcher by setting auto-hide and lowest possible sensitivity. if i want to use lens i just press super :) docky and gnome-do for launching apps
[13:17] <dr_willis> gnome-control-center backgroun         dosent open any background settings here
[13:17] <dr_willis> just the system-settings main gui
[13:17] <dr_willis> theres no background icon in it. ;)

[13:20] <flintser> dr_willis: DTH0_ ^^
[13:22] <DTH0_> dr_willis, I sincerely hope it was just a mis-typing but it's not. It really won't work even with proper spelling.
[13:22] <DTH0_> ** (gnome-control-center:7426): WARNING **: Could not find settings panel "unity-appearance"
[13:22] <flintser> DTH0_: hmm... is it even in the settings menu?
[13:23] <Jeaton> much better, got cinnamon uninstalled and gnome classic back on
[13:23] <dr_willis> i dont see any wallpaper icon in the settings tool
[13:23] <flintser> woot..
[13:23] <DTH0_> No, it was named "Appearance"
[13:24] <dr_willis>  gnome-control-center appearance
[13:24] <dr_willis> ? dosent do anything here. ;) just the main window

[13:25] <DTH0_> this was an example
[13:26] <StaRetji> Folks, is it safe to delete /usr/share/man/man3 ? I have vps server limited to number of inodes, so I wonder can I  do rm -r ? Thanks
[13:26] <flintser> how can this be :D why it works for me...
[13:27] <itai_michaelson> hi, my system suddenly takes 4 minutes to boot, can someone take a look at my dmesg output to confirm my suspicion that linux cant find my DVD drive on boot http://paste.ubuntu.com/1682098/
[13:27] <patrycjusz> hi all
[13:27] <patrycjusz> it is posible to install linux server on virtual box with WHM and cpanel ?
[13:28] <DTH0_> flintser, http://imagebin.org/247269
[13:29] <ikonia> patrycjusz: no reason why not
[13:29] <DTH0_> no appearance
[13:29] <craigbass1976> Is there an ubuntu version of a RedHat system's /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf ?  I'm trying to make a website that runs in Ubuntu run on Fedora and can't figure out what's so different between the two boxes versions of apache and php
[13:30] <ikonia> craigbass1976: the platform makes no differnce
[13:30] <ikonia> craigbass1976: what's the actual problem
[13:30] <flintser> itai_michaelson: remove the dvd drive and boot
[13:30] <StaRetji> Folks, is it safe to delete /usr/share/man/man3 ? I have vps server limited to number of inodes, so I wonder can I  do rm -r ? Really need to know urgent. THX!
[13:30] <ikonia> StaRetji: why do you want to remove the man pages
[13:30] <TakeItEZ> StaRetji: you should be fine removing those man3*, it just will give some warnings if you remove tha according packages sometime
[13:30] <ikonia> StaRetji: just add more inodes
[13:30] <DTH0_> and "gnome-control-center background" will give me
[13:30] <DTH0_> ** (gnome-control-center:12672): WARNING **: Could not find settings panel "unity-appearance"
[13:31] <flintser> craigbass1976: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
[13:31] <StaRetji> ikonia: I can't, it is sold like that
[13:31] <flintser> craigbass1976: sorry that is what not you wanted...
[13:31] <ikonia> StaRetji: sounds a bad sale then
[13:31] <StaRetji> TakeItEZ: thx dude
[13:31] <StaRetji> ikonia: yep
[13:31] <StaRetji> lol
[13:31] <TakeItEZ> craigbass1976: /etc/php5/*
[13:32] <phschwartz> How can I install the 32bit and 64bit version of a library on a 64bit install instead of just the 64bit library?
[13:32] <flintser> DTH0_: have you changed icon theme?
[13:33] <Eagleman> If i have 1 CPU with 4 cores, and 4 Guest OS's on my KVM Hypervisor, can i give those 4 Guest OS's all 4 CPU Cores ( 16 in Total ) and will they still work? How do thet share resources when they are all on 100% Load?
[13:33] <phschwartz> ie, I want to cross compile for 32 and 64 bit on the same system, but only have 64bit expat and need the 32bit also
[13:33] <TakeItEZ> craigbass1976: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[13:33] <ikonia> patrycjusz: you don't want that, you want to build a toolchain to cross-compile, not link against system libraries
[13:33] <DTH0_> flintser, yes but i've done so since ages, never caused any trouble.
[13:33] <flintser> so the appearance just disappeared? was it during an upgrade? while changin theme?
[13:34] <DTH0_> I have no clue, but I don't remember changing themes while performing my last update.
[13:35] <sakkemo> Hi, I'd like to put my Downloads folder as well as latex output on tmpfs, and move the needed files to SSD/HDD only if needed. Any tips on good guides and/or warnings or experiences, or should I just trust Google?
[13:35] <ikonia> sakkemo: what are you unsure of ?
[13:35] <flintser> DTH0_: known bug is that while upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10 this might happen, and some icon themes make that too happen. have you tried other icon themes and rebooting?
[13:36] <flintser> i mean restarting x
[13:37] <DTH0_> flintser, It wasn't an upgrade, just an update. And icon theme worked before update. I restarted after the update.
[13:38] <TakeItEZ> sakkemo: the unsecure factor of that is the user, missing to move some files before shutting down.
[13:38] <flintser> DTH0_: i'm confused... google doesnt help much either... if it is possible to re-install gnome-control-center it might help? someone more experienced might help you with that if it is doable
[13:38] <sakkemo> ikonia, TakeItEZ: rather, I'm asking if there's any drawbacks I should be aware of, besides the fact if I lose power I'd lose those files
[13:39] <DTH0_> the only thing I see on google is on ubuntu chinese forums.
[13:39] <DTH0_> I might have some trouble reading it...
[13:40] <craigbass1976> ikonia, I get Call to undefined function session_is_registered() in Fedora but not Ubuntu.
[13:41] <craigbass1976> ikonia, I thought it was something specific to my app, but I see now Googling that it's been deprecated...  Just not in Ubuntu yet probably.
[13:42] <ikonia> craigbass1976: oh so your problem is on the Fedora machine, not the ubuntu machine
[13:42] <craigbass1976> ikonia, yes.  And I see now that Precise runs php5.3 while Fedora has the new 5.4, where session_is_registered is no more.  :( sniff sniff...
[13:43] <flintser> DTH0_: maybe sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-control-center or sudo apt-get purge gnome-control-center && sudo apt-get install gnome-control-center?
[13:43] <flintser> DTH0_: i must warn you that this might leave your system without it at all :/
[13:44] <DTH0_> flintser, already tried usual "reinstall, reconfigure" voodoo. Gods won't smile on me...
[13:44] <flintser> DTH0_: purge? purge is different than remove
[13:46] <DTH0_> flintser, ok. Might try that.
[13:47] <flintser> privmsg me if you want, i'll go now but my server runs 24/7 so i wont miss anything if you msg me later
[13:49] <Eagleman> If i have 1 CPU with 4 cores, and 4 Guest OS's on my KVM Hypervisor, can i give those 4 Guest OS's all 4 CPU Cores ( 16 in Total ) and will they still work? How do thet share resources when they are all on 100% Load?
[13:49] <ikonia> Eagleman: it doesn't work like that
[13:49] <ikonia> Eagleman: think of it as %per core
[13:52] <ejv> the linux kernel is quite smart, it does inter-core load balancing; the source code is of course available, to see how it's implemented.
[13:52] <Eagleman> ikonia, i still dont understand
[13:53] <ikonia> Eagleman: think of your cpu as %100 and each core a % of it when you assign 2 core you are assigning % x 2 after hypervisor overhead, not 1 core = 1 core virtua/physical mapping
[13:53] <ikonia> Eagleman: so think of each core as % rather than a core
[13:54] <mjolk_> Hi, can anyone help me out with the following problem: i changed my user id and now when logging in i get the message "could not update ICEauthority file" and cannot log in. I tried to restore access rights to that file for my new user id, but i cant access the file since its in an encrypted homedir.
[13:54] <AtuM> Is there any progress on "start-stop-daemon" bug which gives "this system is not able to track process names longer than 15 characters" on long process names?
[13:54] <AtuM> I'm using 12.04 server
[13:55] <ejv> AtuM: check launchpad? :)
[13:55] <guest-Eemcou_> hey
[13:55] <guest-Eemcou_> hey
[13:55] <cfhowlett> guest-Eemcou, greetings
[13:56] <AtuM> ejv, can't seem to find anything like it.. debian has some bug open.. but its for another package..
[13:56] <AtuM> the root cause is the same: start-stop-daemon
[13:56] <ejv> AtuM: open one yourself :)
[13:57] <R3TR0> hello
[13:57] <AtuM> ejv.. will do
[13:58] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, greetings
[13:58] <R3TR0> ty ^^
[13:59]  * canihojr hi
[13:59] <Eagleman> ikonia, so when assigning 2 cores to my Guest OS, i am assigning 50% of the total cpu power?
[14:00] <Eagleman> in my case
[14:00] <GeorgeJ_> Hello folks
[14:00] <R3TR0> hi
[14:00] <GeorgeJ_> What's the channel for 13.04? #ubuntu-latest?
[14:00] <ikonia> Eagleman: not %50, whatever the %per core works out at
[14:00] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu+1
[14:00] <ikonia> Eagleman: it's not a 1 - 1 mapping
[14:00] <GeorgeJ_> cfhowlett: Thank you
[14:01] <cfhowlett> GeorgeJ_, no worries
[14:01] <usr13> mjolk_: Ctrl-Alt-F6 and login to tty6.  Check the ownership of .ICEauthority  If it is not owned by you, chown it
[14:02] <R3TR0> i can ask my question about ubuntu 12.04 in this channel, right?
[14:02] <usr13> mjolk_: ls -l .ICEauthority   #See what it says.  chown mjolk .ICEauthority  #To fix it.
[14:02] <ikonia> R3TR0: sure
[14:02] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, of course.
[14:02] <R3TR0> ok, this problem occurs kinda often
[14:02] <R3TR0> so lets start
[14:03] <R3TR0> ive installed ubuntu with the wubi installer, because i would like to use ubuntu to work and windows to play
[14:03] <R3TR0> so i did
[14:03] <usr13> mjolk_: Alt-Right-Arrow to go back to login screen, (tty7)
[14:03] <R3TR0> ive installed drivers and updates and all that kind of stuff
[14:03] <R3TR0> and after i went to bed, started my computer the other day and choose ubuntu
[14:03] <R3TR0> there is that "loading" screen with ubuntu in the middle and 5 orange dots below it
[14:04] <R3TR0> then i cant do anything except do a reboot with something like alt + strg + del
[14:04] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, ubuntu for work?  y u no install ubuntu as the main OS and virtualbox for windows?
[14:05] <R3TR0> im a student but if i would do something like search in the internet
[14:05] <R3TR0> its quite useful to have these multiple desktops
[14:05] <geektech> you can download Wine or PlayonLinux
[14:05] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, windows 8?
[14:05] <R3TR0> no, windows 7
[14:05] <R3TR0> the thing is, i dont want to have ubuntu as my main os because i dont got something like an installation cd for windows
[14:06] <R3TR0> if i would mess something up, windows was already installed on my pc
[14:06] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, ok, long story short: wubi (windows installer) is for TESTING ubuntu.  NOT  long term installation.  All the things that can break a windows installation are doubly likely to break your wubi ... fragmentation, all that stuff.
[14:07] <R3TR0> ahh didnt knew that
[14:07] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, rather than wubi, install virtualbox in windows and put ubuntu inside the virtualbox is my 2 cents advice.
[14:07] <R3TR0> i thought its just an installer to install it alongside windows
[14:07] <R3TR0> ok, i will try that
[14:07] <R3TR0> thanks for the advice
[14:07] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, common misconception, but not true.
[14:07] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, best of luck
[14:07] <usr13> R3TR0: ... an unfortunate shortcoming (of Win7).  But you are definately upside down.  The best situation is to have Win7 as guest.
[14:07] <R3TR0> yeah, if i fail i will come back i guess
[14:08] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, and get a ... legal win7 disk.  just for fun.
[14:08] <R3TR0> i didnt have windows 7 illegal
[14:08] <R3TR0> *dont
[14:08] <R3TR0> if you think that
[14:08] <usr13> R3TR0: But the good news is that most accomplish a dual boot install with no problem.
[14:09] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, dual boot with win 7 is actually pretty easy.
[14:09] <R3TR0> dual boot?
[14:09] <R3TR0> im not really much into that kind of stuff sadly
[14:09] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, install "along side" ubuntu ...
[14:09] <usr13> !dualboot | R3TR0
[14:09] <R3TR0> ahh amd thx
[14:09] <R3TR0> how do you know that?
[14:10] <mjolk_> usr13: thanks, ill try
[14:10] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, know what?
[14:10] <usr13> mjolk_: Ok, let us know if you have any other problems/questions.
[14:10] <R3TR0> the dual boot instructions, there was a link only for x84/amd and macs, so im curious why there was no nvidia
[14:11] <usr13> R3TR0: We don't know, we just regurgitate ;0
[14:11] <mbeierl_> usr13, if it's not win7 pro, you cannot run it as a guest.  it will complain about not being licensed.
[14:11] <cfhowlett> R3TR0, nvidia is not a computer manufacturer
[14:11] <R3TR0> ahh
[14:11] <usr13> mbeierl_: Thanks for the info/correction.
[14:12] <megamonk> hi, anyone here good with installing R (Rscript)? need help T_T
[14:12] <R3TR0> lets get a windows recovery
[14:12] <rewarp> megamonk: As in R stats?
[14:13] <mbeierl> usr13, Very frustrating for me.  I am stuck with dual boot on my laptop as a result.  Just wanted to save some heartache for others down the road
[14:13] <mjolk_> usr13: hmm first problem: ctrl alt f6 not working :)
[14:13] <megamonk> R.. as in this R -> http://cran.r-project.org/
[14:13] <usr13> mjolk_: Hold Ctrl and Alt keys while hitting  F6 key
[14:13] <rewarp> megamonk: Yes. That's the one. You can find it in the software centre.
[14:14] <oneliner> hello there i need to run an sql import that will potentially take several hours while unatended, i need to make sure the box aint gonna try and do something silly like energy saving suyspend of something like that, where should i check to make sure?
[14:14] <aFeijo> hi folks, I used the browser to access my windows server share, I see the files, now I need to use scp command to send those files to my ESXi server. In my shell where can I access that mounted windows share?
[14:14] <usr13> mjolk_: Alt-RightArrow to come back to GUI
[14:14] <mjolk_> usr13: yeah i know, i have done ctrl+alt+backspace before
[14:14] <usr13> mjolk_: Are you at the standard login screen?
[14:15] <megamonk> yeah... i have a wierd situation with it... cant get it to work... can we have a private chat so i can tell you the details?
[14:15] <jrib> aFeijo: try ~/.gvfs
[14:15] <rewarp> megamonk. Sure. I have R running.
[14:15] <megamonk> btw, how do you make a private chat here?
[14:15] <aFeijo> jrib, that folder is emtpy
[14:15] <Touhou11> megamonk: Ask someone their a/s/l and take it from there
[14:15] <cfhowlett> megamonk, with permission
[14:15] <jrib> aFeijo: what do you mean by "I used the browser to access my windows server share"?
[14:16] <aFeijo> jrib, yes, I click the Network, found the machine, the share and the folder :)
[14:16] <jrib> aFeijo: in nautilus?
[14:16] <usr13> mjolk_: If not; Can you describe what is on the screen? What kind of computer is it?
[14:16] <aFeijo> jrib, yes
[14:16] <R3TR0> if i may mess the dual boot, could it have an effect on the hard drive
[14:17] <jrib> aFeijo: it should be there as far as I know.   I have some legacy apps that require /bin/sh to behave like bash. Can I make Ubuntu have /bin/sh as /bin/bash? Do I break Ubuntu if I just do: rm -vf /bin/sh ; ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh ?
[14:20] <mjolk_> normally you should be able to mount this dir using ecryptfs-mount-private
[14:20] <usr13> R3TR0: Yes. In preparation, you should backup important data, do a cleanup, (delete stuff you don't need), defrag, scandisk, (normal MS Windows Maintenance stuff).
[14:20] <Arty_> y'a eu qqc de nouveau?
[14:20] <mjolk_> but this gives an error message that is not set up correctly
[14:20] <jrib> tdn: you should fix the legacy apps since they are broken.  Make the shebang line actually specify bash.  If you can't for some reason, you can do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash"
[14:21] <BluesKaj> !fr | Arty_
[14:21] <R3TR0> sounds like a lot to do
[14:21] <Delux> any idea why sda2, which shows as part of a RAID in both mdadm --detail and /proc/mdstat but when listing with fdisk -l it does not show up and only shows sda1 ?
[14:21] <usr13> R3TR0: The good news is that you won't have to do that MS maintenance stuff much any more, (because Win7 won't be used much anymore).
[14:21] <tdn> jrib, sure, I would like to fix the legacy apps, but they are proprietary and thus non trivial to fix.
[14:21] <R3TR0> wait, ubuntu is going to be my primary os?
[14:22] <geektech> dell sells ubuntu laptops
[14:22] <escott> tdn, you should fix the legacy apps to use /bin/bash instead. its a one line change
[14:22] <BluesKaj> usr13, wanna bet :) ppl are dumping W8 in droves or avoiding it , whatever their stae of computing
[14:23] <usr13> R3TR0: Linux maintenance is automatic, (that stuff is not a part of what we have to do).  Linux does not fragment, filesystem checks are done periodically/automatically, no virus problems etc...
[14:24] <BluesKaj> had 2 ppl ask about installing w7 on their W8  laptops
[14:24] <escott> Delux, because you shouldn't be using fdisk
[14:24] <usr13> BluesKaj: What?  (sorry, not understanding exactly what you're saying)...
[14:24] <usr13> BluesKaj: See my PM
[14:25] <usr13> BluesKaj: Could you elaborate just a bit?  (via PM)
[14:26] <BluesKaj> usr13, already did in the pm
[14:26] <tdn> escott, sure, I would like to fix the legacy apps, but they are proprietary and thus non trivial to fix.
[14:27] <escott> tdn, except they are shell scripts so you can edit them.
[14:28] <tdn> escott, nope, embedded in binaries. As I said: non-trivial.
[14:29] <escott> tdn, well you probably won't break init by changing the boot shell to bash. but it will be slower
[14:29] <ubuntuaddicted> anyone use a xbox 360 controller with linux gaming? i can't get Team Fortress 2 to work. i have tried both xpad and xboxdrv
[14:29] <R3TR0_> i would like to get linux working XD
[14:29] <tdn> escott, sure, slower is acceptable.
[14:30] <usr13> R323T: I don't know if it your system is UEFI or not but, just in case, you might want to be aware.  See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[14:30] <MadEchidna> hey is anyone else getting some weird lag when playing flash content?
[14:30] <R3TR0_> yeah im preparing to try a dual boot
[14:30] <R3TR0_> but im quite unexperienced
[14:30] <R3TR0_> or lets say absolutly unexperienced
[14:30] <MadEchidna> it's never been an issue for me before on this system but yesterday and today when I have flash going in the background, when I move the mouse around the sound skips
[14:31] <MadEchidna> it's not happening just this moment but it is happening on and off
[14:32] <usr13> R323T: We have all started from that ponit.
[14:32] <R3TR0_> its R3TR0 :P or just retro
[14:32] <R3TR0_> not r323t, that pronouncing is new
[14:34] <R3TR0_> lol, im just noticing now, why isnt your name green anymore usr13
[14:34] <R3TR0_> first time hexchat, dont know anything about it x)
[14:35] <wolftune> quick question: I compiled something myself that wasn't in the repos, but now it is. How can I remove my compiled version and use the repo version?
[14:35] <usr13> R323T: This is a Large Channel, (over 1700 nicks), it is a good idea to identify the person you are talking to with their exact nick at the beginning (or somplace in) your comment.  (That way, we know to whom your comments are being directed.)
[14:36] <R3TR0_> ahh ok
[14:36] <Touhou11> wolftune: Did you use a "make install" command? If so, sometimes there's a "make uninstall" if the author is thoughtful
[14:36] <R3TR0_> well i think i will just continue deleting some useless stuff
[14:36] <wolftune> Touhou11: oh hmm, I guess I can check
[14:37] <usr13> R323T:  ... just makes it easier to pick out who your talking to in the sea of comments flying by.
[14:37] <R3TR0_> ^^ i guess
[14:37] <usr13> R323T: Good luck.  Let us know if you have any further questions.
[14:37] <guest472> hey
[14:37] <usr13> R3TR0_:  Sorry, wrong nick
[14:37] <R3TR0_> hello
[14:38] <R3TR0_> dont worry
[14:38] <usr13> R3TR0_: Using auto-complete and wasn't paying much attention.
[14:38] <R3TR0_> yeah dont worry
[14:38] <R3TR0_> i think ill take it easy with that dual boot stuff
[14:38] <tdn> How do I system-wide change the default editor from nano to vim?
[14:39] <wolftune> ok, the dev did not include an uninstall, so that's not an option
[14:39] <usr13> R3TR0_: Ok. But my advise is to just jump in with both feet. (In the end, you'll be glad you did.)  "No guts, no glory"  ;0
[14:39] <wolftune> so I don't know how else to remove the thing to install the repo version now
[14:39] <R3TR0_> yeah ill
[14:39] <R3TR0_> when i have more time
[14:41] <usr13> R3TR0_: Yes, by all means, set asside some time.  Not only is there the install process, you'll want to do a lot of post-install work to get your system customized the way you want it. (And it's hard to stop once you get into it.)
[14:41] <usr13> R3TR0_: The install process will take 1&1/2 to 2 hrs but double that.
[14:42] <R3TR0_> hmm
[14:42] <R3TR0_> well i guess its worth it
[14:43] <usr13> R3TR0_: Oh it is.  It will not consume all your time during that period.  Once the install is underway, you can leave it for a while, (probably 45min to an hour, depending on how fast your PC and Media Device are, and internet, etc...).
[14:43] <R3TR0_> so what is the result?
[14:43] <d70> hi, i want to install xfce along with gnome, im using ubuntu 12.04, anyone has done that? can help me?
[14:43] <R3TR0_> having 2 operation systems
[14:44] <DJones> !xfce | d70
[14:44] <usr13> R3TR0_: Exactly.  It is like haveing two computers in one box.
[14:44] <cfhowlett> d70, sudo apt-get install xfce4
[14:44] <falematte> Hey all! I am having problem with google-chrome on my ubuntu 12.04 LTS. When i browse the web sometimes some advertisements' pages open automatically. It didn't appen before. I think is a kind of virus. Anyone knows what to do?
[14:44] <cfhowlett> falematte, not a virus...more likely a setting
[14:44] <R3TR0_> and how will i switch between them? like in the wubi installer at the start of the pc?
[14:45] <TakeItEZ> falematte: you want to install ad-block add-on
[14:45] <usr13> R3TR0_: But what you'll find is that you will come to use one somewhat more than the other.  (I'll leave you to guess which.)
[14:45] <falematte> cfhowlett, openadvertising is the name of the advertisment program i got i think
[14:45] <[LgO]Aionicus> tbh falematte : www.google.co.uk -> type in : chrome ad block plus , and chrome popup blocker
[14:45] <usr13> R3TR0_: The boot screen will give options.
[14:45] <cfhowlett> falematte, use incognito mode in chrome, delete history and cookies.
[14:45] <blow> "Tick, tock, tablet time!" ???
[14:45] <R3TR0_> ubuntu? :P
[14:45] <falematte> [LgO]Aionicus, I already have the pop up blocker turned on
[14:45] <savagecroc> rsync -az --progress -e ssh website:/storage/masters /storage/masters << this command is not syncing everything .. any idea why?
[14:45] <[LgO]Aionicus> install those 2 and you should be fine , thou best bet would be to go back to firefox , chrome never was safe in my eyes , (google is always watching ^^)
[14:45] <falematte> cfhowlett, gonna try
[14:45] <DJones> !tablet | blow
[14:46] <blow> right
[14:46] <usr13> R3TR0_: After post, you'll see a boot screen with options to boot into Win7 or Ubuntu.  You'll be allowed ample time to chose.
[14:46] <escott> savagecroc, what is it syncing
[14:46] <R3TR0_> well, im playing a lot so ubuntu not for now, maybe if there will be more titles that will come for steam
[14:46] <savagecroc> escott: i think it must be missing hidden files or something
[14:46] <R3TR0_> or better said titles that im playing
[14:46] <savagecroc> escott: basically i'm syncing a git repo
[14:47] <savagecroc> or a ton of git --bare repos to be precise
[14:47] <savagecroc> ohhhh maybe it's not copying symlinks
[14:47] <falematte> cfhowlett, I just did it- Iìll let you know in 5 min :D
[14:47] <DasJunge> So I have recently been trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 via USB and each time I do it I get a message saying its missing some file "vmlinuz" something like that. From what I can tell this is a result of a bad ISO. Well I have dowloaded ubuntu numerous times of the official site and each time I do it always does not match the MDSUM(i think thats the name)
[14:47] <DasJunge> what am I doing wrong?
[14:48] <cfhowlett> DasJunge, you're downloading.  use the torrents instead.  better error correction
[14:48] <[LgO]Aionicus> dasjunge your bootloader seems off
[14:48] <[LgO]Aionicus> what did you use to put it on the disk ?
[14:48] <DJones> DasJunge: How are you downloading? direct from the website or via torrent, I'd suggest trying the torrent download
[14:48] <DasJunge> I have been using the website but ill try the torrent
[14:48] <[LgO]Aionicus> if your from windows -> www.google.co.uk -> type in yumi installer and get that one , select your iso and hit ok , then it should work
[14:49] <d70> cfhowlett, , DJones , thx!
[14:49] <geryon6> When I'm looking at a Launchpad bug marked “Fix Released” (e. g. LP #964897), how do I know which version actually fixes the bug?
[14:49] <savagecroc> escott: crap -A includes the symlink option
[14:49] <cfhowlett> d70, no problem
[14:49] <DasJunge> I have been using unetbootin
[14:49] <DasJunge> Is that one bad?
[14:49] <savagecroc> rsycn --make-it-exactly-the-bloody-same /source /destination
[14:49] <TakeItEZ> savagecroc: it should, rsync -a includes -l (--links)
[14:49] <[LgO]Aionicus> unetbootin should work , but ive seen it act spliffy from time to time
[14:49] <DasJunge> alrighty
[14:49] <[LgO]Aionicus> i know from personal experience the yumi works great (and can also download the iso for you)
[14:49] <cfhowlett> DasJunge, no.  it's fine, but a fragged ISO is a fragged ISO. Garbage in, garbage out
[14:49] <DasJunge> Ill try the torrent but it's really slow!
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> dont
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> what file you want to download das ?
[14:50] <cfhowlett> DasJunge, slow but clean data ...
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> what version ?
[14:50] <DasJunge> 12.04
[14:50] <DasJunge> ubuntu
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> ok
[14:50] <savagecroc> TakeItEz: i can't work out why when i run git rev-parse master on one it's different than the other.. the only explination i can think of is that the files are different and rsync is missing them
[14:50] <TakeItEZ> savagecroc: or do you have hardlinks? -H then
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> 64 bit or 32 bit?
[14:50] <cfhowlett> DasJunge, 12.4.2 is the current version ...
[14:50] <DasJunge> 64
[14:50] <DasJunge> 12.4.2 i meant
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> and what country you from junge?
[14:50] <[LgO]Aionicus> .de ?
[14:50] <R3TR0_> yep
[14:50] <DasJunge> yes
[14:50] <R3TR0_> germany
[14:51] <savagecroc> TakeItEZ: ahh no
[14:51] <savagecroc> maybe i need that :)
[14:51] <R3TR0_> but in the grammar part his name is wrong, it should be DerJunge
[14:51] <savagecroc> what's a hard link?
[14:51] <falematte> cfhowlett, Fot the moment everything seems ok. Can u explain me what was happening? Thx alot
[14:51]  * savagecroc googling
[14:51] <DasJunge> I know, im just a guest in this country ): I try
[14:51] <[LgO]Aionicus> try using this link
[14:51] <R3TR0_> dont worry
[14:51] <[LgO]Aionicus> http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ubuntu-releases/12.04/
[14:51] <DasJunge> alrighty
[14:51] <cfhowlett> falematte, I suspect you're chrome settings allowed pop-ups, etc.  I don't know the defaults.  Personally, I use incognito all the time ...
[14:51] <[LgO]Aionicus> its from a gbit host in ireland
[14:51] <DasJunge> thanks aionicus
[14:51] <R3TR0_> thats not a big failure, some people are worse
[14:51] <[LgO]Aionicus> should have decent routing to .de
[14:52] <R3TR0_> and they are from germany, i am german and i know what im talking about ^^
[14:52] <DasJunge> R3tro
[14:52] <DasJunge> are you familiar with cito the rapper?
[14:52] <DasJunge> or it could be sito
[14:52] <usr13> R3TR0_: I may be over-stating the time it will take, (but would rather over-estimate than under-estimate).
[14:53] <R3TR0_> its Sido
[14:53] <R3TR0_> and yeah, but im not fan of german music
[14:53] <DasJunge> Why is it that in his songs he uses DIE strassen junge when he is referring to a male
[14:53] <dmku> cfhowlett: why use incognito?
[14:53] <cfhowlett> just the slightest bit off-topic ... #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:53] <R3TR0_> DIE is used for plural
[14:54] <DasJunge> But it is only one guy, himself
[14:54] <DasJunge> and sorry
[14:54] <cfhowlett> dmku, harder for tracking to find you by your internet footprint
[14:54] <savagecroc> I met the best german ever last week
[14:54] <R3TR0_> and its for Strassen, thats in english roads
[14:54] <DasJunge> it was just bugging me
[14:54] <guest552> hey
[14:54] <cfhowlett> NOT impossible, but harder
[14:54] <R3TR0_> yeah, german is a complicated language
[14:54] <DasJunge> The artikels really get me
[14:54] <Pici> !offtopic
[14:54] <R3TR0_> well, SIDO means Super Intelligentes Drogen Opfer, in English thats Super intellegent drug victim
[14:54] <savagecroc> he passionately talked about v2 rockets for 20 mins :)
[14:54] <R3TR0_> oh ok sorry
[14:54] <DasJunge> haha thanks, sorry for offtopic
[14:55] <R3TR0_> usr13: yes, better overestimate than underestimate
[14:55] <blow> !guidelines
[14:55] <usr13> DasJunge: R3TR0_ When we wander off-toppic, it is best to go to channel #ubuntu-offtopic, (or some other one), because this channel is very busy with Ubuntu support.
[14:56] <R3TR0_> yeah, ubottu was friendly and told us that
[14:56] <R3TR0_> wont happen again
[14:56] <guest301> hey im back
[14:56] <DasJunge> So torrents are usually a more reliable download for the ISO than the ones from the site?
[14:56] <guest301> what r u doing guys
[14:57] <cfhowlett> DasJunge, generally, yes. error checking is more robust
[14:57] <DJones> !ubuntu | guest301
[14:57] <DJones> guest301: This is the support channel for Ubuntu
[14:58] <DasJunge> ubottu, what irc client do you use, or find best in ubuntu?
[14:58] <cfhowlett> DasJunge, xchat is very nice
[14:59] <mcmullins> ubottu, make me a sandwhich
[14:59] <savagecroc> i can not work this out
[14:59] <guest258> hey im back again
[14:59] <savagecroc> https://gist.github.com/freedomfreddy/249878afa81f07eab857
[14:59] <mcmullins> ubottu, sudo make me a sandwhich
[14:59] <DasJunge> Anyone had experience with irssi?
[14:59] <DasJunge> I heard it was good
[15:00] <DJones> DasJunge: Yes, it is very good, but terminal based
[15:00] <BluesKaj> irssi is fine if you like the commasnd line
[15:00] <dmku> DasJunge: as console client - yes
[15:00] <DasJunge> Cool thanks.
[15:00] <flintser> DasJunge: irssi is good, especially if ssh+screen
[15:00] <dmku> DasJunge:  and weechat is second (or first)
[15:00] <flintser> +irssi
[15:01] <dmku> But I really like to use Gajim with XMPP -> IRC transport
[15:01] <mcmullins> ahh! completely forgot about the tablet anouncement
[15:01] <mcmullins> super excited
[15:02] <mcmullins> hour left

[15:03] <wN> bingowrt: hi
[15:03] <bingowrt> im waiting for ubuntu for phone
[15:03] <DasJunge> I think this will lift some if your guys' spirits. My school just bought 100s of new thinkpad T430s for our school, and it is said that they might have ubuntu installed for student use!
[15:04] <PiLp> Hello, how well does Ubuntu work with AMD GPU's? I've heard some bad things.
[15:04] <flintser> DasJunge: our school implemented edubuntu with lstp, it was good for the use
[15:04] <geryon6> !phone | bingowrt
[15:04] <pgomes> hi, why does Ubuntu changes my keyboard layout at every freaking sleep!!
[15:05] <flintser> i am first time building, how long it usually takes to build something? stepmania has been building for 5 mins now
[15:05] <kbrosnan> flintser: depends on the program and your computer's specs
[15:06] <DasJunge> YES! My ubuntu install was successful! The ISO i got from the torrent was good and everything works now!
[15:06] <bingowrt> what is that announce 53 mins later?

[15:07] <mcmullins> lol they already have a tablet irc?
[15:07] <SuperLag> What is the preferred way to install fonts in Ubuntu? I'm on 12.10
[15:07] <SuperLag> The font viewer is... let's just say... less than reliable.
[15:07] <Haris> Hello all
[15:07] <Haris> I need to build a kickstart file for a very basic install of ubunt 12.04.2 LTS
[15:08] <Haris> please point me in the right direction
[15:08] <gdanko> Man, I have a 12.10 base install. I manually intall xserver-xorg and xfce4. Today X crashed and dropped to a text screen. My password was in the middle of the screen in plain text. Grrrr.
[15:08] <flintser> kbrosnan: stepmania, and intel q9650 quad-core 3ghz
[15:08] <mcmullins> SuperLag, Font Viewer
[15:08] <DasJunge> Haris: you want to install Ubuntu 12.04?
[15:09] <Haris> yes
[15:09] <Haris> server-amd64
[15:09] <Haris> via the pxe
[15:09] <DasJunge> Do you have a USB or a blank CD?
[15:09] <SuperLag> mcmullins: see my comment re: Font Viewer. It's unstable and crashes on every attempt.
[15:09] <Haris> none of the both. the box is in a DC 10,000 miles away in another continent
[15:10] <guest989> hey
[15:10] <flintser> and where does the builded source go? it said copying binaries, but where :)
[15:10] <mcmullins> SuperLag, then something is wrong with your Font Viewer
[15:10] <Haris> I have a pxe active with <IP_ADDRESS> LTS imported via cobbler

[15:11] <jrib> tdn: you can use update-alternatives
[15:11] <Fuzzles> if i install ubuntu 13.04 will i get the updates and when it comes out will it auto update to taht release
[15:11] <SuperLag> mcmullins: this is a stock install of 12.10, with all updates current
[15:11] <flintser> usr13: ok, thanks. i'll come back if i cant find them ;)
[15:11] <jrib> Fuzzles: yes, but please ask questions regarding 13.04 in #ubuntu+1

[15:13] <Myrtti> guest989: you'll be put in the dog house if you don't stop the non-support chat.
[15:13] <mcmullins> what does details say about the crash report?
[15:14] <savagecroc> In ubuntu-ru they ask you the questions
[15:15] <megamonk> anyone here have experience in jedox or palo?
[15:18] <tdn> jrib, thanks.
[15:18] <tdn> jrib, I noticed that this seems to be overwritten by the $EDITOR variable in my shell.
[15:19] <wdnz> omg, a countdown
[15:19] <Haris> from ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet#Advanced:_Hands-Off.2C_Preseeded_Network_Server_Install ) is this ( preseed/url=http://<IP_ADDRESS>/preseed-feisty.cfg ) the kickstart file mentioned under point #5 ?
[15:19] <helmut_> hi
[15:19] <wdnz> tablets?
[15:20] <DJones> !tablet | wdnz
[15:20] <guest57894> Hi. how does one make ls list the total file size output? Say, in a directory, you have 5 files where each is 200k. ? ls -lrt will only show each ofhte 5 files at 200k... but it will not report 1,000 k
[15:20] <wdnz> Oh right.
[15:20] <Haris> or is this ( url=http://server/u710a/preseed/web-server.preseed ) it ?
[15:20] <jrib> tdn: that's one way a user may change their preference, yes :)
[15:20] <Haris> does ubuntu or debian name kickstart as preseed ?
[15:21] <tdn> jrib, ok.
[15:21] <Crystufer> Hello. New user here. Just updated my graphics driver and it lost my display settings. Any way to get them back?
[15:21] <dmku> guest57894:  du -h
[15:22] <DasJunge> Haris: I'm not sure sorry haris, maybe you should ask #ubuntu-server
[15:23] <DasJunge> They could probably help you more there
[15:24] <guest57894> dmku: i know, but it does not report the total. question was how to make it do so?
[15:24] <guest57894> dmku: that just shows the file size of each.
[15:25] <Crystufer> Ick. Empathy is terrible for irc. brb.

[15:25] <TakeItEZ> guest57894: ^

[15:26] <Malsasa> Hello, how if I wanna give GPL license in my DEB package? What should I write in copyright file? Any example?
[15:26] <dmku> guest57894: sorry, try: du -hc
[15:26] <escott> dmku, you would also have to specify --depth=1
[15:26] <flintser> for the building, another question: is it ok to copy the created binaries to /usr/share/stepmania, then create "stepmania" with "#!/bin/bash /usr/share/stepmania/stepmania" in /usr/bin, then chmod +x that file
[15:27] <guest57894> dmku: yep, that does it! thanks!
[15:27] <Fuzzles> on the ubuntu website whats the tick tock all about
[15:27] <crystufer_> K. That's better.
[15:27] <escott> flintser, did you ./configure=/usr/share/stepmania?
[15:27] <escott> flintser, did you ./configure --prefix=/usr/share/stepmania?
[15:27] <DJones> !tabley | Fuzzles
[15:28] <DJones> !tablet | Fuzzles
[15:28] <flintser> escott: it was automated script and it came with the source, "./utils/build.sh" and it created the binaries in the root folder of the soruce...
[15:28] <dmku> escott it's not obligatory, for ex: du -hc *.png. But yes, when there is dirs in targets.
[15:29] <flintser> root of the source was /home/flintser/stepmania
[15:30] <flintser> i want to make stepmania "global" so that usr can launch it with stepmania from terminal, or create stepmania.desktop
[15:30] <crystufer_> Okay. So the answer may have been given before. But I was drowning in join/part messages. How can I fix my displays after a driver update?
[15:30] <sifu_work> hello folks..i tried removing my old php5.3 installation to install the php5.4 but i am getting some unmet dependencies error...
[15:30] <sifu_work> http://pastebin.com/AMDGisKi
[15:30] <sifu_work> thats the list of errors...tried everything i know but nothing is working
[15:31] <escott> dmku, sure but thats not what you are advising him to do :)
[15:31] <Reezz> Hey guys, anyone that might help me solve a package problem? (autoconf errors at an AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE macro..) I do have all the packages needed it seems (m4, libtool, autoconf, automake) but it won't budge.
[15:31] <escott> flintser, usually those can't be moved
[15:31] <ninjak> Hi. I'm trying to change overlay scrollbars with old one and I'm using this command: gsettings set com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode normal
[15:32] <ninjak> but the system tell that com.canonical.desktop.interface doesn't exists
[15:32] <ninjak> someone have tried it before?
[15:32] <flintser> escott: well, i'll try and see what happens.
[15:34] <dmku> escott  "du" has many other options) And the question was only about total size.
[15:37] <Stranger> I installed wubi a few days ago. Then I decided to reformat my hard drive that wubi was installed on. After reformatting wubi was not removed. And it still gives me the boot option, despite ubuntu not actually starting. Obviously I don't have the uninstall option in the control panel for it.
[15:37] <jrib> Stranger: what do you want to do now?  Install ubuntu to its own partition?  Or get rid of ubuntu completely?
[15:37] <Stranger> I want to remove and reinstall it
[15:38] <jrib> Stranger: you want to use wubi again?
[15:38] <escott> Stranger, what did you do to the NTFS partition?
[15:38] <Stranger> Yes, but 32bit
[15:38] <jrib> Stranger: you should be able to just install wubi again
[15:38] <Stranger> I attempted to, and nothing changed.
[15:38] <Stranger> escott You mean the old windows files?
[15:39] <Stranger> I still have them
[15:39] <flintser> escott: i copied the whole directory (with binaires and source in it) to /usr/share/stepmania/ and created stepmania and launch script with nano in /usr/bin and gave executable bit. it worked, at least so it seems. i can now launch stepmania from terminal with "stepmania"
[15:39] <crystufer> Okay. So I lost my dual monitor setup in a display driver update. Detect Displays on the display setup doesn't work. I think I have to do this manually. anyone got a link?
[15:40] <flintser> stepmania launch script*
[15:41] <escott> Stranger, ok. so in what sense did you reformat the hard drive
[15:42] <escott> Stranger, b/c if windows still exists it sounds like you did NOT reformat the hard drive.
[15:42] <Stranger> I chose the custom installation which put all of my old files into a single folder.
[15:43] <Reezz> escott, if he had dual boot on separate drives, he could format 1 drive and still boot using the startup from windows which has the dual boot config in it
[15:44] <escott> Stranger, so you installed a real ubuntu alongside the windows that previously existed and which contained WUBI
[15:44] <crystufer> xorg.conf is empty. Help plx.
[15:45] <Stranger> I installed wubi right. Then I reinstalled windows without uninstalling wubi.
[15:45] <Stranger> I still get the duel boot option, just I can't actually use the ubunti install.
[15:45] <captine> really excited fr this announcement
[15:45] <escott> Stranger, and i'm back to not understanding what you did
[15:46] <Dalton_> Hey all
[15:46] <Stranger> I reinstalled windows 7 with wubi installed. But it still gives me ubuntu option, except when I choose it ubuntu throws errors.
[15:46] <holstein> Stranger: i would recover the bootloader for windows
[15:46] <Kralle> Anyone can help with ubuntu desktop?
[15:47] <Reezz> Stranger, so you had windows and wubi installed on the SAME drive?
[15:47] <Kralle> When i boot from it
[15:47] <Kralle> It say failed to idle channel 2 and 3.
[15:47] <Stranger> Reezz Correct
[15:47] <Kralle> What can i do to fix that problem?
