[11:14] <lng> could anybody help?
[11:15] <diecastarts> lng what was the problem?
[11:15] <hazlan> .
[11:16] <lng> Hi! After Ubuntu system upgrade, I couldn't login. Xorg.0.log has an errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6970295/
[11:16] <diecastarts> at times you really need wait a long time to get help. more so around this time of day
[11:16] <lng> diecastarts: After Ubuntu system upgrade, I couldn't login. Xorg.0.log has an errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6970295/
[11:16] <Squiggz> ahh gotcha
[11:16] <lng> when it is booting, I can see 'The systemt is running in low-graphics mode...', then I hit Ok button and it displays another popup where different options available
[11:16] <Squiggz> i just wish i coudl get someone in the plex irc
[11:16] <Squiggz> you never can
[11:16] <bodroff> кто-нибудь может мне помочь? )
[11:16] <lng> optiions like run in low-graphics mode and so on, but on this stage I could not click Ok anymore
[11:16] <lng> diecastarts: ^
[11:17] <herpderphurr> lng: Are you able to log in using Ctrl-Alt-F1, F2, F3.... ?
[11:18] <lng> herpderphurr: on which stage should I use these keys?
[11:19] <diecastarts> lng not sure but it seem it trying to use the wrong monitor.. but not sure... some computers use 1 Mine uses 0 .. sorry i am a newbie
[11:19] <genii> bodroff: Никто в этой области не может помочь. Пожалуйста, обратитесь за помощью в #ubuntu-ru области.   /join #ubuntu-ru
[11:20] <diecastarts> anytime that bring you to terminal.. but when you need to come back use ctrl-alt-f6 or f7
[11:20] <Squiggz> noone is russian here go back to the Olympics fool
[11:21] <lng> diecastarts: I use cli using ctrl-alt-F1
[11:21] <herpderphurr> lng: Not sure. Try switching to them when you get the dialogue boxes. What they should do is they should present a terminal for you (so you can still fix problems).
[11:21] <genii> Squiggz: Please do not make attacks on other users.
[11:21] <lng> herpderphurr: I mean I can use terminal
[11:22] <diecastarts> kk
[11:22] <herpderphurr> lng: I'm not too familiar with the AMD drivers, but fglrx is the proprietary driver right? Can  you try switching to the open-source one to troubleshoot problems?
[11:23] <diecastarts> but has anyone ever had a problem loggin into a desktop envorment? like it goes right back to login screen?
[11:24] <diecastarts> actually just had a small idea. brb

[11:38] <diecastarts> or it just a trial
[11:39] <UltimateNate> diecastarts: It'll just annoy you to buy it
[11:39] <rannonga> 30 day i think
[11:39] <UltimateNate> So you just ignore it
[11:39] <Serano> diecastarts mirc was always shareware
[11:39] <diecastarts> kk
[11:39] <UltimateNate> OMG you spilled the Wine!
[11:39] <Serano> what is it 20 euros after 30 days
[11:39] <diecastarts> but anyway
[11:39] <UltimateNate> lol jk
[11:39] <rannonga> smuxi is nice
[11:40] <UltimateNate> mIRC has easy and useful bot scriping features
[11:40] <diecastarts> I really need some help . I cannot login to my normal desktop under my normal username
[11:40] <diecastarts> it just goes black for a second and then goes back to the login screen
[11:40] <UltimateNate> I run like 7 bots on mIRC
[11:40] <UltimateNate> 7 mIRCs = Many different scripts
[11:40] <diecastarts> but i can open in openbox mode. or use a guest account
[11:41] <rannonga> diecastarts: what happens it just doesn't log in?
[11:42] <diecastarts> yeah it pops right back to the login screen
[11:42] <diecastarts> useing lubuntu
[11:42] <diecastarts> but if i use gues account that works
[11:43] <diecastarts> or my normal username works if i use openbox mode
[11:43] <daftykins> diecastarts: rename your lxde configuration folders, possibly stored in ~/.config/ to slightly different names to reset the DE - that should then let you log in
[11:43] <diecastarts> or openbox desktop i should say i guess
[11:45] <diecastarts> daftykins, k looking for it now

[11:53] <rannonga> diecasts try changing the permission on .Xauthority
[11:53] <llutz> why, they are correct
[11:54] <diecastarts> btw there is no LXDE folder in the .config. but there is an openbox
[11:55] <black_angel> hey, i've install the latest nvidia driver, and from dmesg, it's directly loaded, but now the system is also using another display driver 'i915', how can i active the nvidia driver?
[11:55] <daftykins> diecastarts: it's not called that, i just googled for you (lol) - "lxpanel" is apparently the folder beneath .config
[11:57] <return0> Are there any sub-$100 arm crapbooks which can run Ubuntu? Tons with 512MB RAM and PCie SSD
[11:57] <diecastarts> yeah have that. I also see in there that width and height is set to 100 x 24
[11:58] <diecastarts> I had a game crash and rebooted when this started .. that maybe it?
[11:58] <daftykins> diecastarts: for terminals probably, nothing to do with resolution
[11:58] <diecastarts> oh ok
[11:58] <daftykins> diecastarts: mv ~/.config/lxpanel ~/.config/lxpanel-old
[11:59] <diecastarts> but should i rename that one?
[11:59] <diecastarts> kk
[11:59] <daftykins> you are a funny one.
[11:59] <jatt> return0: olpc's (they have arm and run ubuntu) are available for $40 in ebay
[11:59] <webfox> Hey guys, how do I access the hardware verification scan from Ubuntu boot disk?
[11:59] <cfhowlett> !arm|return0,
[12:01] <diecastarts> daftykins, k so do a full reboot now or just logout?
[12:02] <daftykins> logout and try it
[12:02] <diecastarts> k
[12:02] <diecastarts> brb
[12:05] <diecastarts> no good.. even did a shut down to be sure
[12:06] <daftykins> ah well, someone else will need to help. be sure to tell them the above folder rename i suggested
[12:06] <diecastarts> its tries to .. it pops up the report crash windows for a second and then goes back to the login screen still
[12:06] <diecastarts> but the crash report is normal
[12:07] <diecastarts> yeah odd it made a new lxpanel folder but its empty
[12:07] <diecastarts> I'l delete and rename the old one back but oddness
[12:09] <diecastarts> cound it be the obconf ??
[12:11] <diecastarts> oops nm
[12:13] <diecastarts> ohh i think i know whats happening LXRandR file has this and i think it wrong
[12:13] <diecastarts> Exec=xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1280x1024 --output LVDS1 --off
[12:14] <glambert> hi, i've got an ubuntu 12.04 VM running that keeps rebooting itself but can't see anything obvious in syslog, kern.log etc.  any idea where else to look for problem?
[12:14] <diecastarts> or maybe not because it goes to the login.
[12:16] <Walex> glambert: perhaps it is being rebooted by its host; or perhaps its kernel has a bug in a virtual environment
[12:17] <glambert> Walex, I have many other Ubuntu 12.04 instances all cloned from the same base etc. running and they're OK so I doubt it's the latter.  Not saying it isn't impossible, but I doubt it
[12:17] <glambert> plus it's only been happening the last few days
[12:17] <glambert> re: the host, I think that's the likely scenario
[12:17] <inhortte> Hi... Ubuntu 13.10 / 64bit on a System76 laptop. I purged pulseaudio and use alsa directly for all my sound (I do lots of music stuff), but now Chrome & Firefox will not play audio. Any ideas?
[12:18] <Walex> glambert: reboot happens in two cases: you ask for it, the kernel crashes and reboots
[12:18] <glambert> I can see lots of @@@@@@ etc. in the kern.log and syslog right before the boot up logging
[12:18] <Walex> glambert: bad news...
[12:18] <glambert> Walex, ?
[12:18] <Walex> glambert: so "can't see  anything obvious in syslog, kern.log etc
[12:18] <Walex> glambert: so "can't see  anything obvious in syslog, kern.log etc" was not quite right...
[12:19] <glambert> Walex, what does it mean?
[12:19] <Walex> glambert: that "something" crashed really badly related to IO.
[12:20] <OerHeks> glambert, could be bad disk
[12:21] <glambert> Walex, OerHeks thanks
[12:24] <Squiggz> ok fellas looking for some help, went to the plex IRC (got a JACK***) so im looking for help here before i go back to windows
[12:24] <Squiggz> its help with ubuntu/plex
[12:24] <Squiggz> having a hell of a time with it
[12:26] <CullenDM> Hello, is anyone currently on?
[12:26] <cfhowlett> !ask|CullenDM,
[12:27] <CullenDM> >.>
[12:27] <CullenDM> I wasn't asking to ask.
[12:27] <Squiggz> ok plex wont find my movies files can anyone help
[12:27] <CullenDM> I was just seeing if anyone actually paying attention.
[12:28] <CullenDM> Anyway, I just upgraded my install and update manager said that the upgrade was aborted and unfinished.
[12:30] <CullenDM> So, it appears that I am stuck halfway between two versions, and I have looked around a good bit, but haven't found any advice on how to remedy the situation other than just wiping everything and starting fresh.
[12:30] <trijntje> have you tried running update manager again?
[12:30] <SirLagz> CullenDM: have you tried manually updated the sources list and doing a full apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[12:30] <CullenDM> Yes, it says that I am on the latest version.
[12:30] <SirLagz> what's in your sources.list file at the moment ?
[12:31] <CullenDM> And when I run apt-get update it says that it failed to retrieve.
[12:31] <SirLagz> well that's not right.
[12:31] <trijntje> CullenDM: failed to retreive what?
[12:31] <CullenDM> Where is sources.list?
[12:32] <SirLagz> CullenDM: /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:32] <CullenDM> Updates.
[12:32] <CullenDM> SirLagz: I should have guessed.
[12:32] <SirLagz> CullenDM: lol
[12:33] <CullenDM> I have two sources.list.
[12:33] <trijntje> CullenDM: not updates, the exact url its failing to fetch. It could be a problem with your connection, or with your local mirror
[12:33] <CullenDM> One is sources.list and it contains raring.
[12:33] <cfhowlett> !raring
[12:33] <cfhowlett> note: end of life
[12:35] <CullenDM> Never mind, I was only looking at the first line.
[12:35] <trijntje> CullenDM: can you type 'update-manager -d' in a terminal and see what happens?
[12:35] <CullenDM> The original install media was Raring.
[12:35] <CullenDM> I was on 13.10, all of my sources have no changed to trusty.
[12:35] <cfhowlett> CullenDM, are you trying to upgrade from raring?
[12:36] <CullenDM> No, 13.10 to 10.04.
[12:36] <CullenDM> 14*
[12:36] <lng_> Hi! How to fix it? The following packages have unmet dependencies: fglrx-amdcccle-experimental-13 : Depends: fglrx-experimental-13 but it is not installed; E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
[12:36] <cfhowlett> CullenDM, OK got it - wait, trusty?  still in beta.  support in #ubuntu+1
[12:36] <CullenDM> thanks.
[12:38] <trijntje> lng_: what did you do to get that error?
[12:38] <CullenDM> I feel like there is no one ins that room.
[12:38] <trijntje> did you add any ppa or repository to sources.lst?
[12:39] <lng_> trijntje: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=8k count=1
[12:39] <lng_> trijntje: to switch the driver
[12:40] <leeyaa> can anyone cat his rc.local? should it have exit 0 at the end Oo ?
[12:40] <llutz> leeyaa: it should/must have, yes
[12:40] <trijntje> lng_: you broke your system, who gave you those instructions?
[12:41] <trijntje> in case anybody is reading the logs, don't run the dd command lng_ posted above, it will trash your system
[12:42] <cfhowlett> trijntje, i'm not familiar with that one.  similar to rm -rf?  if so, perhaps we should get a factoid set up
[12:43] <llutz> cfhowlett: using sudo it would overwrite MBR/partition-table
[12:43] <trijntje> cfhowlett: yeah, it writes a bunch of zeros to the first part of the disk, most likely trashing the partition table
[12:43] <cfhowlett> llutz, yow.  pretty malicious.
[12:44] <trijntje> !dd
[12:47] <llutz> we should tell his dad - no tv today...
[12:52] <geirha> well, assuming he ran it as root. As a regular user he'd likely just get a permission denied message
[12:52] <trijntje> does anyone know how to add a new factoid to ubottu?
[12:53] <negev> hi, is there any semi-decent keyboard binding thing for linux?  for example i'd like to bind Alt-[ in my terminal to switch to the next instance of terminal.  can't find anything that would allow me to do this.
[12:53] <trijntje> yeah, but i'd guess most people would add sudo to a command that doesnt work ;)
[12:53] <tsimpson> trijntje: /msg ubottu factoid-name is factoid goes here
[12:53] <Squiggz> has anyoine been able to connect an hdd to plex????
[12:53] <trijntje> negev: the default for that in untiy is alt + `
[12:54] <trijntje> tsimpson: cool, thanks!
[12:56] <d_0o0_p> For any moment I need to use newest GNOME 3.10, but did it have any compatibility issues in Saucy?
[12:59] <leeyaa> guys how to get killall command? i have killall5 ?
[12:59] <leeyaa> which is not the same
[13:00] <cfhowlett> leeyaa, open a terminal and type in man killall
[13:00] <leeyaa> chalcedny: i dont have killall at all
[13:00] <leeyaa> using ubuntu precise server
[13:01] <llutz> leeyaa: sudo apt-get install psmisc
[13:02] <leeyaa> thanks llutz
[13:04] <negev> trijntje: thanks, is it configurable at all?
[13:05] <Guest26508> jjajjajajajajja
[13:07] <trijntje> negev: yes, via compizconfig-settings-manager, you'll have to install it first
[13:07] <negev> trijntje: thanks :)
[13:09] <negev> trijntje: you don't happen to know where specifically do you?  lots of stuff in this
[13:10] <trijntje> negev: unity -> switcher
[13:11] <leeyaa> TJ-: i sorted my problem by creating a init.d script
[13:11] <negev> trijntje: i don't have a unity section
[13:11] <leeyaa> and now i use it to start, restart and stop vpn
[13:11] <leeyaa> i just need to add it as a service ;p
[13:11] <trijntje> its called Ubuntu unity plugin
[13:13] <negev> got it thanks :)
[13:15] <negev> trijntje: is it possible to make it just snap to the next window rather than displaying the switcher modal?
[13:16] <trijntje> negev: I don't think so
[13:16] <OerHeks> negev sure, hold WIN key to see all key combo's
[13:17] <OerHeks> ctrl alt left/right/up/down
[13:17] <negev> that's workspaces not windows of an application
[13:21] <houssein> njnj
[13:24] <houssein> hay
[13:25] <houssein> how are you
[13:25] <cfhowlett> houssein, greetings
[13:25] <houssein> you to
[13:27] <JoeSomebody> is anyone able to tell me how to customize the unity desktop? is this some new idea, do not let user customize?
[13:28] <cfhowlett> !unity
[13:28] <trijntje> JoeSomebody: compizconfig-settings-manager
[13:29] <ruien> Hello. I created a custom ubuntu repository named "trusty-sanseb" with the package "fdupes", so when I "apt-get update", it finds this same package (same version) in both "trusty" and "trusty-sanseb". Apt provides an option (-t) to install from a particular target, so I think I should be able to install the one from mine using "apt-get install -t trusty-sanseb fdupes", but it still installs the one from the official repos ("trusty"). Anyone know why? /etc/apt/
[13:29] <JoeSomebody> ok thanks, i just want desktops icons , then maybe i learn to like it more, but if not flexible at all, nahhh it cant be as bad as it seems, cant be :)
[13:29] <cfhowlett> !trusty|ruien, support in the other channel
[13:30] <JoeSomebody> how about keyboard shortcuts for apps ?
[13:30] <JoeSomebody> still want a desktop though
[13:30] <ruien> cfhowlett: i don't think this is related to trusty at all, this is 100% apt. It just happens that i'm using the name "trusty" in the repo distribution label.
[13:30] <hitsujiTMO> JoeSomebody: unity-tweak-tool
[13:31] <streulma> Hello Ubuntu Users, I have a Core 2 Duo 2.8ghz should I place 128gb ssd or hold the 750gb 7200rpm drive?
[13:31] <JoeSomebody> i looked in tweak tool , could not find what was expected , musta been hidden good
[13:31] <hitsujiTMO> ruien: We neither support trusty, nor non repo apps here. but to point you in the right direction lookup apt-pinning
[13:32] <JoeSomebody> i probably had ANOTHER bad google result page, but how are we to know what we can trust if no one answers here?
[13:32] <hitsujiTMO> ruien: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto https://wiki.debian.org/AptPreferences
[13:33] <trijntje> JoeSomebody: don't be so negative all the time if you need help. You can switch between applications using windows + 1-0
[13:33] <hitsujiTMO> JoeSomebody: sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-tool                        normally every software we mention is in the repo unless otherwise specified
[13:33] <ruien> hitsujiTMO: thanks, I'll read this. Note that -t specifically is meant to be used when not using apt-pinning-- from the manpage: "-t : Specifically pinned packages are not affected by the value of this option.", so I'm not sure that pinning is the answer.
[13:34] <houssein> ggggg
[13:35] <therealmat> hi
[13:35] <hitsujiTMO> ruien: i've only ever seen/used -t with apt-pinning       its used to ignore the apt-pin preferences
[13:36] <ruien> hitsujiTMO: ah, interesting. That's a helpful tidbit then, thanks.
[13:37] <cfhowlett> therealmat, greetings
[13:37] <faraway> when logging into my server (12.04.4) with ssh i get the message "/dev/sda2 will be checked for errors at next reboot"  while rebooting i can see that the check is done, but the message remains.

[13:38] <Rory> faraway: The problem is caused by an issue with timezones, where the date in that file is set in the future
[13:38] <jbooms> if ubuntu stuck wit gnome people eventually would stop whining gnome3 and it still be #1, loving ubuntu gnome
[13:39] <Rory> faraway: It's safe to delete it, just type that command carefully so you don't delete anything else by mistake
[13:39] <Rory> jbooms: Glad you found a system that works for you
[13:40] <jbooms> lol nice politically correct response :P
[13:40] <faraway> hitsujiTMO: well i'll look into dmesg  but calling a command that will post something to pastebin without that i read it? :D
[13:41] <Rory> faraway: Try removing that one file first, I can pretty much guarentee it'll fix it
[13:42] <hitsujiTMO> faraway: its non sensitive info that we frequently ask for to determine the cause of issues. specifically here i was looking for any hardware issue that may have been the cause of a filesystem returning to a dirty state. but rory's fix is prob more likely
[13:43] <marianne> good morning - I'm running 64 bit ubuntu 12.04 and would like to know if it's possible to run a bluray player through my computer. I have a bluray drive, but a lot of the movies don't play because of BD+ encryption... just looking for a work around at this point... suggestions?
[13:43] <Rory> faraway: In future, you can use a command like "dmesg > output.txt", then inspect output.txt, and then "pastebinti output.txt" if you're happy
[13:43] <faraway> Rory: i'll do so after i did some reading about it. but thx for the info
[13:44] <cfhowlett> !blueray|marianne,
[13:47] <jbooms> only problem having gnome3 that find in all distros and havent found answer... login screen keeps coming up on my hdtv, sometimes on my regular monitor, mostly often my hdtv, weird typing in pass without seeing it
[13:47] <marianne> ubuttu: I can play DVDs, but not certain blurays... yes, I' know you're a bot
[13:48] <rafael> hola
[13:48] <cfhowlett> !es|Guest98923,
[13:51] <Squiggz> need help finding a drive
[13:51] <Squiggz> i had an external hd just partitioned it to nfst and its gone
[13:51] <jbooms> where it go?
[13:52] <jbooms> try reboot maybe
[13:52] <hitsujiTMO> Squiggz: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[13:52] <jbooms> plug/unplug
[13:52] <Squiggz> that easy?
[13:53] <therealmat> when i try to boot the desktop installation dvd all I see is a colored background and two icons at the bottom of the screen with an equals sign (=) between them. Nothing happens...
[13:53] <therealmat> one time i hit some key at the grub boot menu and it actually booted to the screen where i can decide to test or install ubuntu. then X crashed with some nouveau error. i have a gtx580 from nvidia
[13:53] <hitsujiTMO> !nomodeset | therealmat
[13:53] <jbooms> press enter when u see it, means u dont got efi bios
[13:54] <therealmat> hitsujiTMO, well, since i can't see the grub menu that won't work
[13:54] <therealmat> can i switch from the server version to the desktop version? or is there some "real" difference? All I need is the gnome desktop, LAMP, thunderbird, firefox and xchat
[13:55] <jbooms> no when u see that weird symbol, press enter
[13:55] <therealmat> that way i could set up the system, install the nvidia drivers and blacklist that damned nouveau driver
[13:56] <jbooms> im using ubuntu gnome, luv it, think it may b bit slower then fedora just a guess, but unlike fedora it works most time
[13:56] <hitsujiTMO> therealmat: if you wanted to take that route then you can just install the ubuntu-gnome-desktop package
[13:58]  * therealmat is on the phone
[13:58] <jbooms> wish gnome ditch the whole evolution n empathy integration crapola integrated solution never end up being the best or even easy
[13:58] <therealmat> hitsujiTMO, well, i've installed numerous ubuntu server setups, that works fine
[14:00] <jbooms> can i just remove gnome-extras or will my computer explode?
[14:01] <therealmat> ok, so I'll go for the server version. hope to talk to you folks in an hour. :)
[14:01] <therealmat> bye
[14:04] <jbooms> if i ask how to make it so i dont see paid software in ubuntu software center, will i get banned?
[14:05] <OerHeks> jbooms, it is not possible to avoid paid software in software center, that is why i use synaptic (it does not show paid apps)
[14:05] <OerHeks> software center is closed source
[14:05] <hitsujiTMO> jbooms: modify the source - or use something else
[14:05] <tarzeau> you can avoid software center
[14:05] <hitsujiTMO> oooh its closed? my bad
[14:05] <OerHeks> AFAIK it is, hitsujiTMO
[14:06] <hitsujiTMO> OerHeks: makes sense i guess
[14:08] <ruien> hitsujiTMO: I figured it out, thanks. from manpage apt_preferences(5), "apt-get downloads the instance listed earliest in the sources.list(5) file. The APT preferences do not affect the choice of instance, only the choice of version." -- i assumed the preferences affected both.
[14:09] <hitsujiTMO> !yay | ruien

[14:32] <OerHeks> ibDoug, oke, ALT + left mouse grabs the window to move it
[14:32] <Defai> alt+mouse press and move window?
[14:33] <OerHeks> ibDoug, hold WIN key for more short keys

[14:34] <LordDeath> with the upcoming locally integrated menus in 14.04 will there be a way to disable the menubar at the top?
[14:35] <LordDeath> because it would waste space now that there is nothing to show there
[14:35]  * jelly would rather it were visible the whole time
[14:35] <JoeSomebody> ubuntu called, said $165 x 5 just to evaluate the software, BYE BYE GUYS
[14:35] <JoeSomebody> the very first thing a person should be able to do in linux is to make it look bearable, and customize desktop icons, if it is this too hard, ubuntu is not ready , like win 8, not good on desktops, perhaps phones will like it
[14:36] <OerHeks> LordDeath, top panel menu is called global menu, there is a howto somewere to disable it and move the menu back to the window
[14:36] <OerHeks> http://askubuntu.com/questions/369226/remove-global-menu-13-10
[14:37] <LordDeath> OerHeks: you know this upcoming feature? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teAFgtHWDso

[14:38] <JoeSomebody> nope, im done, just wanted you to know why, and banning me  is ok too
[14:39] <LordDeath> the new option should behave like this if the user enables the integrated menus http://imgur.com/a/C0M1F
[14:39] <OerHeks> LordDeath, nope, unity 7 wil be in 14.04

[14:48] <Rory> dan_: boo
[14:49] <Defai> :)
[14:49] <Defai> test accepted :)
[14:49] <Guest77522> excellent :)
[14:49] <Defai> I see this channel feel nice today :)
[14:49] <Rory> Guest77522: "dan_" was already registered though so you might have to pick a name that's more unique
[14:50] <sakter12> "webcam not found" in google-chrome, ubuntu 13.10
[14:50] <Karmahacker> hi Guys! who can explain or suggest me if it possible please.   how could i limit user to be able use only Firefox in Gnome interface ?
[14:50] <Rory> Karmahacker: You want the only desktop app they can run to be Firefox?
[14:51] <Karmahacker> Rory yes
[14:51] <Rory> Karmahacker: if I were doing that, I would not use Gnome at all. I would make a new type of desktop session which runs Firefox only
[14:51] <Karmahacker>  Rory and no system menu
[14:51] <Rory> Karmahacker: Instructions here http://askubuntu.com/a/124767/62969
[14:51] <Rory> Karmahacker: replace "chromium-browser" with "firefox" or whatever
[14:52] <Rory> Karmahacker: Hmm those are a little chromium-specific actually. Are you comfortable adapting that for Firefox?
[14:52] <Karmahacker> Rory im not sure  ))
[14:52] <Defai> Sakter. Chrome have some workarounds and troubles in webcam, try to search "chrome not see my webcam" or so. I have similar trouble ago. It is chrome issue, in Linux...
[14:53] <Guest77522> im new here, jujst can watch you all chat'
[14:53] <Guest77522> :D
[14:53] <Defai> :)
[14:54] <Karmahacker> Rory another story i need to do that with vnc   and user should be able to runn firefox with more than one process
[14:55] <Defai> Firefox --help in commandline, to run another instance?
[14:55] <Karmahacker> Defai  Firefox -p -no-remote
[14:56] <Defai> Thank you!
[14:56] <Rory> Karmahacker: http://rory.sh/kiosk_instructions.txt
[14:57] <Karmahacker> Defai i might be wrong
[14:57] <Rory> That could work, although it's quite a naive approach
[14:57] <negev> hello, i have a dell XPS-13. ubuntu says there's a kernl security update, but if i install it all my dell drivers stop working and unity hangs (fun!).  can i restrict updates for a specific package to a specific repository?
[14:57] <Rory> negev: Is this the laptop from Dell that ships with ubuntu?
[14:57] <negev> Rory: yep
[14:57] <Karmahacker> Rory Thank you
[14:58] <sakter12> Defai, i see.... so it s a common issue?
[14:58] <Rory> negev: Are you using the same Ubuntu installation it shipped with?
[14:58] <sakter12> webcam and google-chrome in linux not working?
[14:58] <Defai> Yes
[14:58] <sakter12> damn
[14:59] <black_angel> sakter12: it works good.
[14:59] <negev> Rory: no, i had to reinstall 12.04 to get full disk encryption.  i then installed all the .debs from the dell support site and rolled the kernel back to their one in grub.cfg
[14:59] <Tx0> #join #vnluser
[14:59] <Defai> Work! It work
[14:59] <Pici> Tx0: /join #channel
[14:59] <Defai> But some interfaces or similar... Sometimes issues
[14:59] <sakter12> black_angel, not for me it says "webcam not found" what steps did you take to make it work good
[15:00] <black_angel> sakter12: does '/dev/video0' exist?
[15:00] <Karmahacker> Rory i couldn't  get this link
[15:01] <Rory> Karmahacker: this one? http://rory.sh/kiosk_instructions.txt might have typed it wrong sorry
[15:01] <sakter12> black_angel,  yes
[15:01] <Karmahacker> Rory yes
[15:01] <sakter12> black_angel,  its blank i think. and "cat video0" says invalid argument.
[15:01] <leguaani> Does anyone here know how the nvidia powermizer works? Or where should I ask?
[15:01] <Rory> Karmahacker: I just copies and pasted that from my address bar, and it's definitely the right URL
[15:02] <Rory> negev: That sounds complicated. The information from the Sputnik PPA says all the drivers and such have been integrated into the main kernel, so you might be having some other issues. Can you try running  a dist-upgrade and letting it install any new kernels?
[15:02] <Karmahacker> Rory  i have no idea  ((
[15:02] <negev> Rory: if  i do that it just installs the generic kernel from ubuntu.com, and then things break
[15:02] <Rory> Karmahacker: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6971285/
[15:02] <whoever> hi all, I am on 1
[15:03] <Rory> negev: That's my point; things shouldn't break
[15:03] <black_angel> sakter12: it's ok, cause /dev/video0 is not a readable file, it's just a character special
[15:03] <Karmahacker> Rory got it
[15:03] <negev> Rory: well if i can just use a generic kernel from ubuntu.com why do dell provide the modified kernel?
[15:03] <Rory> negev: So I'd like you to break it, and then we can diagnose what's broken
[15:03] <Karmahacker> Rory network is bad sorry
[15:03] <Rory> negev: Back in the day, the drivers weren't in the main kernel
[15:03] <sakter12> black_angel, oh, so what do i do now?
[15:03] <Rory> negev: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/sputnik-kernel
[15:03] <negev> Rory: ok ill do that and come back in a bit
[15:04] <negev> Rory: thanks
[15:04] <black_angel> sakter12: what's the problem with you?
[15:04] <black_angel> sakter12: can google-chrome run on your system?
[15:04] <whoever> hi all, I am on 13.10 tring to find how to change the mouse posistion color (when you hit ctrl to find the mouse) how do i change the color from the redish color to another, I have looked in dconf-editor, but nothing there, can someone assist
[15:04] <sakter12> black_angel, yes ubuntu 13.10
[15:05] <negev> Rory: actually, just remembered if i use kernel 3.11 then i don't get two-finger scrolling in unity.  that's why i reverted to the 3.5 kernel dell provide on their support site
[15:05] <sakter12> when i run this website http://auduno.github.io/headtrackr/examples/targets.html  it says "allow or deny" webcame
[15:05] <sakter12> *webcam and when i hit allow the light turns on but then it says no camera found
[15:05] <Rory> negev: My advice would probably be to install the latest stuff from dist-upgrade, and then fix any individual issues that arise from that
[15:06] <sakter12> black_angel, does that website run for you and your webcam?
[15:07] <dan__> check
[15:07] <Pici> dan__: can we help you?
[15:07] <kemjang> Thank you!
[15:09] <black_angel> sakter12: i do not have a webcam.
[15:09] <whoever> and there isn't anything in universal access either
[15:10] <veke> is there a way from the installation to see a log of what's going on?
[15:10] <veke> the installation seems to hang but without any log
[15:10] <veke> I can't debug this
[15:17] <shreezbot> I'm having problems with my machine randomly rebooting on me with no explanation.  I've looked in all of the log files in /var/logs such as syslog and kern.log, but none of them have anything that would indicate why the system rebooted
[15:18] <hitsujiTMO> shreeram: is there curruption in the log files before the reboot?
[15:18] <shreezbot> Doesn't seem to be
[15:19] <STHGOM> I've seen a couple forums about it but I need someone to explain how to mount an .iso file in wine
[15:19] <hitsujiTMO> shreezbot: is your system getting hot at all?
[15:19] <STHGOM> man... there are a lot of people here...
[15:19] <shreeram> Y u r asking me???
[15:20] <STHGOM> if you know how then yes
[15:20] <STHGOM> :D
[15:20] <shreezbot> hitsujiTMO, I checked the system temp after the reboot, and it was hotter than usual (58 degrees), but it quickly dropped...
[15:20] <shreezbot> hitsujiTMO, I don't know if the system got hot before or after the reboot though...
[15:21] <hitsujiTMO> shreeram: lol, sorry, wrong ping
[15:21] <sakter12> cd
[15:21] <hitsujiTMO> shreeram: sudden reboots that don't get logged tend to be hardware related. Not enough power to a part, parts overheating, etc
[15:21] <shreeram> Lol
[15:21] <hitsujiTMO> shreeram: lol sorry again. silly tab
[15:22] <shreeram> Its ok...
[15:22] <shreezbot> hitsujiTMO, Yea, I'm afraid of the hardware issue.  Not sure how to begin troubleshooting that as I'm not really strong on hardware...
[15:22] <hitsujiTMO> shreezbot: try lm-sensors https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto keep monitoring the temps
[15:23] <hitsujiTMO> shreezbot: how often are the reboots?
[15:23] <shreezbot> hitsujiTMO, Well, this time my uptime was at almost 6 days before the reboot.

[15:24] <miguel> google
[15:24] <shreezbot> hitsujiTMO, Does lm-sensors keep a history of the CPU temp?
[15:24] <hitsujiTMO> shreezbot: no, you'll have to watch it i'm afraid
[15:24] <shreezbot> hitsujiTMO, It's ok, I can script it.  :D
[15:25] <shreezbot> I wonder if sar keeps up with CPU temp
[15:25] <xreal> Anyone with an idea? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21916764/fuse-loopback-device-in-openvz-container
[15:25] <hitsujiTMO> xreal: this is #ubuntu support not debian support. try #debian
[15:26] <xreal> hitsujiTMO: the problem is the same.
[15:26] <hitsujiTMO> xreal: or openvz
[15:26] <xreal> hitsujiTMO: it's not an OpenVZ problem.s
[15:27] <hitsujiTMO> xreal: this channel is dedicated to #ubuntu support only. debian have their channel #debian . or for a more agnostic channel try: ##linux . we cannot support you here
[15:29] <xreal> hitsujiTMO: it's not a dedicated debian, ubuntu or linux problem
[15:29] <xreal> hitsujiTMO: read the website first, then you'll understand it
[15:29] <hitsujiTMO> xreal: you are not using ubuntu. its not an ubuntu problem

But for some reason it hasn't been as easy to find something for simple HTTP downloader that has a client / server system preferably with WebUI of some sort

[15:47] <Gothi> Anyone able to help a total newbie who has no knowledge of using a terminal?
[15:47] <dearcarr0t> maybe there is something wrong with your electronic
[15:49] <OerHeks> Georwl, open terminal:  alsamixer # and select with F4 capture, and see if you can pop up a slide/unmute?
[15:49] <dearcarr0t> OerHeks:
[15:50] <LunatiK> Hello - I have a issue with setting up Squid proxy, I have put 'acl localnet src <IP_ADDRESS>/24' in my config file, my private network is from eth1 (<IP_ADDRESS>) and apache serveur is on eth0 (<IP_ADDRESS>) - When I accesss to <IP_ADDRESS> squid didn't cache anything
[15:51] <Georwl> OerHeks: Yes I can slide/unmute
[15:51] <Georwl> however there was nothing unmuted
[15:55] <yacc_> ABitPastOne: maybe because the topic is kind of problematic => so you want a webapp where you can enter http urls so that you can retrieve the contents via http later on?
[15:56] <wrale> so, I'm seeing an issue on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS 64-bit, where SR-IOV virtual functions don't appear as expected in 'ip link show'... Instead of getting the VF(s) below the PF(s), I get what appears to be additional PF(s).  Trying to configure them via 'ip link set DEV vf 0 mac aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff'  (or anything similar, appears to not work)
[15:57] <webfox> Hello guys!
[15:57] <wrale> it would seem that this is an expected behavior of late model kernels, but I cannot be sure.. i'm hoping someone can shed light on the issue
[15:57] <gothaggis|work> hello, i use kerberos to connect to active directory, works great.  However I am trying to change my shell and i can't get it to work.  chsh results in 'user does not exist in /etc/passwd' which is of course correct...so how does one change shell using ad authentication?
[15:58] <webfox> I got a Ubuntu Server running at a VM in Bridge mode and it is failing to fetch outside connection, like apt-get update. could someone help me to figure what could be the issue here please?
[16:00] <Georwl> anyone know how to solve fron mic issues?!?
[16:00] <Georwl> front microphone
[16:02] <wrale> gothaggis: every time i've used kerberos, i've had users in /etc/passwd  or i've used sssd.. um..hmm.. oh yeah.. the /etc/shadow encrypted password field for kerberized users should be like '*Kerberized*', which locks the password, but not the account
[16:03] <Vivekananda> hey veryone still stuck with the issue that my homescreen displays /home/user/ instead of /home/user/Desktop. What config files do I delete to reset this behaviour ?
[16:04] <wrale> webfox, look at the libvirt docs on bridging.. those are excellent
[16:06] <wrale> Vivekananda: http://askubuntu.com/questions/44449/ubuntu-desktop-suddenly-points-to-home-folder
[16:06] <Georwl> does anyone know howhow to make the fron microphone work?
[16:07] <wrale> what version of ubuntu?
[16:07] <Georwl> 12.04
[16:07] <wrale> unity ?
[16:07] <Georwl> no gnome
[16:07] <wrale> ah..
[16:07] <demophobia> How do I "zoom in" in gedit text editor?
[16:07] <demophobia> I want to make the text larger to see some kanji more clearly
[16:07] <demophobia> i can't seem to zoom in or increase text size
[16:08] <demophobia> it seems a very simple thing to do
[16:08] <wrale> demophobia: can't do it.. increasing text is only way
[16:08] <demophobia> control + + doesn't work
[16:08] <demophobia> how do i do that? i tried highlighting the text and going into preferences but it didn't work
[16:08] <demophobia> had to click 'select'
[16:08] <wrale> Georwl: sound output working?
[16:08] <demophobia> is there no way to 'preview' the changes??
[16:09] <aural__> When trying to install something using apt-get, it appears the archive.ubuntu.com address is being resolved as an ipv6 address and failing instead of ipv4.
[16:09] <Georwl> wrale: Yes, sound output is working. Also the rear output and input ist working
[16:09] <aural__> how can I configure system to use ipv4 addresses?
[16:09] <Georwl> wrale: also the front putput is working
[16:09] <wrale> Georwl: try alsamixer in a terminal
[16:09] <wrale> see if that goes anywhere
[16:09] <wrale> (hunch)
[16:10] <Georwl> wrale:  Front is actevated. I disabled the automute function... everything seems fine

[16:15] <speaker1234> what is you Q. I probably missed it
[16:16] <wrale>  I'm seeing an issue on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS 64-bit, where SR-IOV virtual functions don't appear as expected in 'ip link show'... Instead of getting the VF(s) below the PF(s), I get what appears to be additional PF(s).

[16:16] <g9m29> hello all
[16:16] <Georwl> wrale, whats your question?
[16:16] <wrale> ^
[16:16] <flan_suse> If the intel video driver is built in to the kernel, then why is there a separate package in the repos: xserver-xorg-video-intel
[16:17] <wrale> how can i fix it?
[16:17] <g9m29> I have a question about bug in ubuntu and I wonder if this is the place where I should ask
[16:17] <wrale> flan_suse: kernel module?
[16:18] <Hawkare> hi everybody!
[16:18] <speaker1234> g9m29: ask the Q and if we don't know, we will say nothing :-)
[16:18] <yeats> wrale: can you use fewer acronyms? SR-IOV? VFs? PFs?  also, your issue on the face of it sounds more appropriate for ##networking
[16:18] <Zooklubba> Running 14.04. Steam isn't working.
[16:18] <flan_suse> wrale: Yes.
[16:18] <flan_suse> wrale: Not sure what the difference is.
[16:18] <wrale> yeats: posted question there too, incidentally
[16:18] <flan_suse> Does the version of the intel video driver depend on the package in the repos? or on the kernel version?
[16:19] <g9m29> Can someone help me - When I open firefox in full screen there appears to be a sort of a white line over the tabs and I cannot fix that, It disappears when I click again on the top of the window but till then every new tab or old one being clicked get me this line
[16:19] <yeats> g9m29: I've seen that before - I think it's a problem with Unity, but I don't know the solution - I just futzed with it until it stopped
[16:19] <wrale> flan_suse: kernels ship with something called headers, which are kinda like metadata.. kernel modules are usually drivers or similar things which are compiled especially for that kernel.. they can be loaded and unloaded (see 'man modprobe')...
[16:20] <Pici> wrale: you might want to try #ubuntu-server as well
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> g9m29: can you give a screenshot of the issue please
[16:20] <flan_suse> wrale: Ah okay.
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> g9m29: use mageshack or similar to make a URL of the image
[16:20] <g9m29> okay
[16:20] <flan_suse> Thanks
[16:20] <wrale> flan_suse: the kernel headers are required to do the compilation.. but the repos contained pre-(or ready)-baked modules + kernels
[16:20] <wrale> (meaning headers aren't always required)
[16:21] <flan_suse> wrale: And ppas will have "more updated" pre-made ones.
[16:21] <flan_suse> Okay, makes sense.
[16:21] <flan_suse> Playing around with my intel card.
[16:21] <wrale> flan_suse: indeed, though not all ppa's are created equally
[16:21] <flan_suse> wrale: Yeah, I read some horror stories. ;)
[16:21] <wrale> Pici: thanks.. will do that
[16:22] <Pici> left
[16:22] <Pici> er
[16:24] <Kyoku> Has anyone come across this PHP segmentation fault before http://hastebin.com/nociqowibo.rb ?  Looking for a way to resolve it.
[16:25] <Zooklubba> So. Steam issue (ubuntu 14.04): .local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 755:  5712 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) $STEAM_DEBUGGER "$STEAMROOT/$PLATFORM/$STEAMEXE" "$@"
[16:25] <Zooklubba> :(
[16:26] <hitsujiTMO> !trusty | Zooklubba
[16:26] <wrale> Kyoku: no, but my guess is the version you're using is statically linked to something not there.. i would suggest upgrading php
[16:26] <wrale> also: google zend
[16:27] <Kyoku> wrale: yeah seems to be something missing, it's basically installed via apt-get install php5 or whatever the command was so it means the Ubuntu distribution is missing something
[16:27] <hitsujiTMO> Kyoku: you'll have to talk to the PPA maintainer for support on that one
[16:27] <ajoul> HOW to search recursively in a folder on all documents for a specific keyword?
[16:27] <hitsujiTMO> Kyoku: you're using a ppa: php5-5.5
[16:28] <lucido> herro
[16:28] <wrale> Kyoku: try apt-get install zend*
[16:29] <wrale> ah.. @ ppa
[16:29] <wrale> yeah
[16:29] <wrale> what he said
[16:29] <lucido> I used grive to to syncronize a directory but it doesnt show up on my google drive in the browser
[16:29] <Kyoku> wrale yikes there're thousands of things to install
[16:29] <cuddylier> Anyone know why my Ubuntu Desktop USB just goes to a black screen upon boot?
[16:29] <cuddylier> I used the USB installer recommended on Ubuntu's website
[16:29] <wrale> how about zend-framework
[16:29] <wrale> (instead)
[16:30] <lucido> can someone explain how grive works?
[16:30] <wrale> cuddlyier: do you have two monitors
[16:30] <cuddylier> wrale: No, one

[16:33] <cuddylier> When I boot from my Hard Drive for the first time it's just blank
[16:33] <cuddylier> Black screen with flashing cursor
[16:33] <cuddylier> So I can't even change boot params
[16:33] <cuddylier> Or add boot options
[16:33] <hitsujiTMO> cuddylier: no. add nomodeset to the grub of the installtion iso
[16:34] <wrale> boot while repeatedly hitting the up key :)
[16:34] <hitsujiTMO> use left-shift / esc
[16:34] <cuddylier> hitsufiTMO: These are the folders I see: http://puu.sh/74Iep.png
[16:35] <ajoul> What is an AS POWERFUL tool as NOTEPAD++ in Ubuntu?
[16:35] <hitsujiTMO> cuddylier: boot the usb, but hit left shift / esc to try and bring up grub as its booting?
[16:35] <wrale> vim-enhanced :)
[16:35] <fishcooker> is there any network manager for command line?
[16:35] <CullenDM> ajoul: Sublime Text?
[16:35] <OerHeks> editor
[16:35] <cypher-neo> ajoul, kate, geany, vim, nano
[16:35] <hitsujiTMO> ajoul: as powerful? erm, well thats kind of a long list. might be better to ask whats more powerful?
[16:35] <OerHeks> !editor
[16:35] <cuddylier> hitsujiTMO: As in left shift or esc?
[16:35] <cuddylier> Both do nothing
[16:36] <cypher-neo> !code
[16:36] <wrale> !protectron
[16:36] <ajoul> cypher-neo I said as powerful I didn't say crappy
[16:36] <CullenDM> ajoul: Define powerful.
[16:36] <hitsujiTMO> cuddylier: you're hitting either of them immediately after bootint the usb?
[16:36] <cuddylier> hitsujiTMO Yes
[16:37] <hitsujiTMO> cuddylier: how did you create the iso? what tool?
[16:37] <ajoul> CullenDM, many functionalities, such as searching in directories recursively for text, such as replacing with regex, such as .. what notepad++ does
[16:37] <cuddylier> hitsujiTMO: Universal USB Installer
[16:37] <hitsujiTMO> ajoul: those listed do that. use sublime text tho. all the kool kids use it
[16:37] <cuddylier> hitsujiTMO: As recommended here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStickQuick
[16:37] <ajoul> hitsujiTMO, nano does that?
[16:37] <hitsujiTMO> cuddylier: try linux live usb creator or unetbootin instead
[16:38] <hitsujiTMO> ajoul: lol, ok, maybe not nano
[16:38] <wrale> ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about protectron :)

[16:40] <Watti> Help i  cant see " enable wifi " in my network settings please help !!!
[16:40] <hitsujiTMO> jojoa1997: you'd need to contact the PPA maintainer
[16:40] <SuperLag> Any of you guys use Chrome as your default browser on Ubuntu? when you get an update, do you end up getting a duplicate Chrome icon in your Unity launcher? How do you keep that from happening??
[16:40] <Watti> ????
[16:40] <chaotix> actually, i am not getting the error for apt-get update, only when i try to uninstall musica, or install anything else
[16:40] <hitsujiTMO> jojoa1997: looks like you're using conflicting PPAs
[16:40] <CullenDM> SuperLag: I never get duplicates, but that could just be me.
[16:40] <jojoa1997> i didnt install any new ppas
[16:40] <hitsujiTMO> ajoul: sublime-text
[16:41] <jojoa1997> where can i see the ppas

, thx a lot!
[16:41] <SuperLag> CullenDM: it's happening to me on a fairly regular basis.
[16:42] <Watti> I dont know ?? but it was working yesterday

[16:42] <jojoa1997> hitsujiTMO what is it
[16:42] <hitsujiTMO> jojoa1997: a PPA/custom deb version string

[16:42] <CullenDM> SuperLag: Odd. I will watch for it next time I get an update.
[16:42] <hitsujiTMO> !ppa-purge | jojoa1997
  please help !!!
[16:43] <CullenDM> Watti: Have you updated your computer since then?
[16:43] <Watti> No
[16:43] <hitsujiTMO> jojoa1997: be warned. purging xorg-edgers rarely brings your system back to a usable state
[16:43] <CullenDM> Watti: Repeating your exclamation marks without giving me anymore information doesn't help me figure it out any faster.
[16:44] <CullenDM> Watti: Have you done anything different with your computer since it worked last?
 yes I tried to install some kali tools using sinaptic thats what i think the cause
[16:46] <jojoa1997> hitsujiTMO how would i ppa purge it and then reinstall it
[16:46] <chaotix> hello.  i have a package installed on my system called "musica".  it is a program i tried to install yesterday to try, but it does not work, and i want te remove it.  it is showing up as installed in synaptic, and anytime i try to install or remove any software, it tries to remove musica to no avail, and i get this error when trying to remove it in synaptic:  "E: musica: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error
[16:46] <chaotix>  exit status 1"   i do not know how to get rid of this seemingly broken package..  please help!  thanks in advance  :)
[16:47] <hitsujiTMO> jojoa1997: ppa-purge will do that. but, xorg-edgers seems to change files outside of what gets purged and therefore breaks the rest of the system after a purge
[16:47] <hitsujiTMO> jojoa1997: on odd ocasision a ppa-purge does work. but i'd back everything up first
 before i did that i my card was set in eth1 and not eth0
[16:48] <Watti> CullenDM please help me to fix
[16:48] <Rory> chaotix: Can you please run from a terminal this command: sudo apt-get purge musica

[16:51] <Watti> i will try it

[16:54] <OerHeks> CullenDM, the 14.04 beta support channel #ubuntu+1 have
[16:54] <CullenDM> Yes, i figured that.

[16:56] <lng> Hi! I have removed unity to use Gnome Classic on the new setup, but now my laptop and connected monitor have the same picture. When I open System Settings / Displays, I see single monitor. How do I add another one?
[16:57] <AlanBell> CullenDM: you have to have a fully updated 14.04 and turn it on in the appearances thing in system settings
[16:58] <CullenDM> Oh, I know. I am already using it.
[16:59] <cuddylier> hitsujiTMO I just tried linuxliveusb and same issue :(
[16:59] <hitsujiTMO> AlanBell: CullenDM as has already been pointed out. all 14.04 related support/discussion is in #ubuntu+1

[17:02] <watti> when i start ubuntu i get this message " unable to start firware 2" ???
[17:03] <blazemore> watti: Does it prevent Ubuntu from starting?
[17:03] <blazemore> watti: Or do you just see it as part of the bootup process, then everything is okay after that?
[17:04] <watti>  <blazemore>  No but what does it mean ???
[17:04] <blazemore> watti: Do you have firewire on your device?
[17:04] <cuddylier> Why do the Ubuntu isos say AMD in their name?
  NO
[17:05] <hitsujiTMO> cuddylier: amd created the current 64bit spec. intel licence it from amd
[17:05] <blazemore> watti: Then don't worry about it
[17:05] <blazemore> The "amd64" in the Ubuntu installation image filename is a common way to refer to all 64-bit processors (by both Intel and AMD) - It's called this for historical reasons around the invention of the architecture
[17:05] <blazemore> watti: It likely means the kernel is trying to load a firewire module, but you don't have any firewire devices or something
[17:05] <webfox> I've being getting this weird errors when I try to upgrade from my Ubuntu Servers and I thought it could be related to the region I was using to obtain the mirrors server and I've followed this website but still getting the same problem after all. Could someone help me figure what that could be please?
[17:06] <OerHeks> Intel made an i64, but AMD64 was the first 32/64 bit multiarch cpu design
[17:07] <webfox> ups, forget the website : http://askubuntu.com/questions/104695/how-do-i-change-mirrors-in-ubuntu-server-from-regional-to-main :P

[17:19] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: Could not resolve 'security.ubuntu.com' dns issues
[17:19] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: what dns are you using?
[17:19] <chottu> my institution uses <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:19] <webfox> hitsujiTMO: I haven't set a DNS.
[17:20] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: you need a dns to resolve domain names. pastebin the contents of: /etc/resolv.conf
[17:20] <webfox> hitsujiTMO: how do I set it, normally I use <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> from Google.
[17:21] <webfox> hitsujiTMO: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9138769
[17:21] <bodhi_zazen> webfox: you can set one in networkmanager, in the ipv4 tab
[17:22] <tmmunq> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:22] <tmmunq> one per line
[17:22] <hitsujiTMO> bodhi_zazen: he's using ubuntu server
[17:22] <tmmunq> if you have a dynamic ip, your dhcp server should be setting this
[17:24] <webfox> tmmunq: yes, I am using a DHCP server
[17:24] <Blanco> re
[17:24] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: then there's an issue with the dhcp server or the dns servers its supplying
[17:24] <webfox> Where and how do I set the DNSs?
[17:24] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: you need to set the dns in the dhcp server
[17:24] <tmmunq> do you have control of that dhcp server?
[17:25] <webfox> hitsujiTMO: why, it is not just the DNS which is missing?
[17:25] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: dns is supplied by dhcp if you're using dhcp
[17:26] <olegfusion> Hello!
[17:26] <webfox> hitsujiTMO: I am afraid my router doesn't supplies :P
[17:26] <bodhi_zazen> webfox: you can try one of these options - http://splatoperator.com/2013/03/the-easy-way-to-add-custom-dns-servers-in-ubuntu/
[17:26] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: so its either supplying an invalid dns, or there's a problem with the dns server itself that its supplying
[17:26] <hitsujiTMO> webfox: then pastebin: /etc/resolv.conf
[17:26] <olegfusion> May anybody please help me? How can I run script (wine) just after desktop is loaded?

[17:34] <williamtdr> Hi. Having problems giving www-data root access for exec().
[17:35] <Nostrada> Not to start a flamewar, but why did you pick Ubuntu over other distros ?
[17:37] <r0b-> ive tried many distros but Ubuntu seems the easiest to setup
[17:39] <CullenDM> The only problem that I have ubuntu is that I constantly find myself setting it up.
[17:46] <bipul> Any Ubuntu lover here who love to listen my complain.

[17:54] <leeyaa> hello
[17:54] <leeyaa> i have created a custom init.d script that i included to ubuntu services
[17:54] <leeyaa> however on reboot it doesnt start
[17:54] <leeyaa> doing/etc/init.d/{start,restart,stop} is working fine
[17:54] <leeyaa> can anyone tell me how to check why it didnt start ?
[17:55] <cong> sudo
[17:55] <tomreyn> leeyaa: check permissions + ownership
[17:55] <tomreyn> a common mistake is lack of +x
[17:55] <leeyaa> tomreyn: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 888 Feb 21 19:12 /etc/init.d/hvpn
[17:56] <leeyaa> if there was no x it wouldnt work when i do /etc/init.d/hvpn restart
[17:57] <tomreyn> leeyaa: right, i missed you saying that.
[17:57] <tomreyn> permissions + file ownership look good
[17:57] <tomreyn> does it have a proper header?
[17:58] <tomreyn> and have you set the runlevel symlinks?
[17:59] <leeyaa> tomreyn: nvm resolv.conf was broken by the vpn
[18:00] <leeyaa> hm, is there a way to run dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf without prompting for entry ?
[18:01] <leeyaa> thats why it didnt star.t resolv.conf was replaced and it could not connect
[18:03] <dyslectic-dingo> hi im trying to bild a rig for gaming, and just cant get heads or tails on what to do with graphic-drivers, witch ones to use and how to get them to work, its a jungle i cant seam to traverse
[18:04] <dyslectic-dingo> and oh its a 64bits sys,
[18:09] <bodhi_zazen> dyslectic-dingo: probably a slightly older card known to work with mir or wayland, some of the newer cards do not work so well with mir / wayland, sort of depends on what version of Ubuntu you want, google is your friend
[18:14] <onca> my system would work great if I could just ignore the multitude of "system problem detected" windows that popup

[18:50] <buree> I just installed ubuntu 12.4.4 after removing it to install windows 7, Now after installation I dont see any wifis...is this because i had installed wifi driving when in win7?
[18:51] <jhutchins> buree: Probably not.
[18:51] <jhutchins> buree: What did you try to do?  How did you try to do it?  What did you expect to happen?  What happened instead?
[18:52] <buree> jhutchins, I simply wanted ubuntu back so i booted the LTS CD and installed normally with the GUI, after i logged in, there were no wifis to choose from so i could get online

[18:53] <buree> top right
[18:53] <guest_________> enable wifi textbox is still messing i did typed  "sudo service networking restart" but ,:..
[18:53] <buree> you usually click and there are nearby wifi signals
[18:53] <jhutchins> Ah, that one.  There are multiple possibilities.
[18:53] <guest_________> helppp
[18:54] <buree> jhattara, I see, what might be one
[18:54] <buree> it was working previiously
[18:55] <jhutchins> It's possible that w7 shut the card off with a software switch.
[18:55] <guest_________> HELP please
[18:55] <buree> jhutchins, that sounds very likely
[18:55] <buree> in my case
[18:55] <jhutchins> guest_________: Be patient.  We're just fellow users, and many of us are doing something else as well.
[18:55] <buree> i forgot how to check if its off

[18:55] <jhutchins> !wifi
[18:56] <buree> sweet!
[18:56] <buree> thanks
[18:56] <jhutchins> I'm afraid I haven't had any trouble with networking in recent ubuntu, so I'm a bit short on help.
[18:56] <jhutchins> guest_________: You might look at the docs as well.
[18:57] <buree> jhutchins, ever since 13.10 and 12.4.4LTS  had not probs untill i installed win7 and tried to go back
[18:57] <guest_________> what might caused this problem i dont have time to read all that i need to fix it as soon as poss
[18:58] <jhutchins> buree: You should be able to dual boot w7 and Ubuntu without serious issues.
[18:58] <buree> really
[18:58] <buree> jhutchins, i never looked into having both OS's
[18:59] <jhutchins> It's been a pretty standard configuration for quite a while.
[18:59] <bodhi_zazen> guest_________: well, start working through this guide and identify your hardware - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessPCMCIATroubleshooting
[19:02] <jhutchins> buree: rfkill is the command I was trying to remember.  I think sudo rfkill -l
[19:05] <prab> hi
[19:05] <Cherir> hi :)
[19:07] <buree> jhutchins, rfkill to unblock the wifi
[19:07] <buree> you mean?
[19:09] <buree> doesnt seem to be blocked lol  soft nor hard
[19:09] <gesstt> I got this message when ubuntu start " unable to load firmware : -2    what does it mean ???
[19:10] <gesstt> I got this message when ubuntu start " unable to load firmware : -2    what does it mean ???
[19:11] <gesstt> ???
[19:11] <bodhi_zazen> gesstt: is all your hardware working ?
[19:11] <bodhi_zazen> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Firmware
[19:12] <jhutchins> buree: Yeah, that's what I was thinking.  WHat's the hardware like?  Multiple adapters?
[19:12] <bodhi_zazen> gesstt: if so, you can probably ignore that message. If not, identify your problematic hardware, and be patient
[19:12] <jhutchins> gesstt: The system was unable to load firmware.
[19:13] <jhutchins> gesstt: If you keep changing your nick it's going to be harder for people to help you.  You also need to respond to what people tell you.
 your right , i guess i need to create an account
[19:16] <buree> jhutchins, I am connected to the internet via ehternet, not sure if that interferes with trying to fix the wifi, I really think something changed when i installed the win7 and isntalled drivers
[19:16] <jhutchins> gesstt: /msg nickserv help register
[19:17] <jhutchins> buree: Ok, so you see the card with rfkill -l. Do you see it with iwconfig?
[19:18] <jhutchins> buree: Are there entries for it in /etc/network/interfaces?
[19:19] <jhutchins> buree: What card is it?  Does dmesg | grep firmware show any complaints about not finding it?
[19:19] <buree> jhutchins, http://pastebin.com/EWw4nW9i
[19:19] <jhutchins> buree: No, you can have both a wired and a wifi connection at the same time.  THat's how a wifi access point works after all.
[19:19] <buree> that?
[19:19] <jhutchins> !paste
[19:20] <jhutchins> buree: Could you use the ubuntu bin?  pastbin.com is blocked (for good reason).
[19:20] <buree> really oh
[19:20] <buree> ok
[19:20] <hitsujiTMO> jhutchins: too much ascii porn? :P
[19:21] <jhutchins> hitsujiTMO: spam, malware.
[19:21] <jhutchins> I can bypass it, but I like to save my "annoy the authorities" cards for when I really need 'em.

[19:22] <morsnowski> !pastebinit
[19:22] <morsnowski> !screenshots
[19:23] <jhutchins> buree: Ok, most likely the driver hasn't loaded.  You can probably see why in dmesg | less.  Does lspci show the device?
[19:23] <jjavaholic> "debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog debconf: (Dialog frontend requires a> screen at least 13 lines tall and 31 columns wide.) debconf: falling> back to frontend: Readline" what is going wrong here?
[19:23] <jhutchins> jjavaholic: What did you try to do?  How did you try to do it?  What did you expect to happen?  What happened instead?
[19:24] <buree> jhutchins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6972569/ lspci yea my card is at the bottom rev 73

[19:29] <andrewjs18> how do you search a file without knowing what directory it's in?  will find filename work?
[19:31] <MrHoppy> hello
[19:31] <jhutchins> buree: http://askubuntu.com/questions/342934/qualcomm-atheros-ar8172-driver-fix-lenovo-g500s
[19:31] <buree> im going to try to reinstall ubuntu as well lol
[19:31] <SchrodingersScat> andrewjs18: check out the man page for find, something like find . -name "filename" would start from the current directory and find.
[19:31] <jhutchins> buree: Don't know why it would have worked before but not now.  No, don't do a full reinstall for one driver.
[19:32] <MrHoppy> how do i go about making ubuntu run faster?
[19:32] <buree> alright thanks for the link
[19:32] <buree> ill try

[19:33] <jhutchins> buree: D'Oh, that's the ethernet, not the wifi.

[19:35] <mihaila> Salut hoppy :d
[19:35] <MrHoppy> deci?
[19:35] <jhutchins> buree: You may need the 3.13 kernel, and I'm not sure how to get that.
[19:35] <buree> i just noticed it was ehternet jhutchins
[19:35] <jhutchins> !ro

[19:36] <buree> but i dont understand, 12.4.4 worked for mebefore
[19:37] <buree> flawlessly
[19:39] <jhutchins> buree: I don't know.  Maybe you had the newer kernel already?  Intel says it works with 3.10+
[19:39] <Hivskiy> у

[19:41] <apatheticshp> howdy
[19:41] <jhutchins> So now we need to look at dmesg and see what it thinks is happening with that card.
[19:42] <jhutchins> Shift-G to see the end of the text in less, g for beginning / to search forward, ? to search back.
[19:45] <jjavaholic> what is going on here: "dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 34099 package 'nvidia-304':

[19:45] <buree> Ill be backsies lol idk whats up with this
[19:46] <genii> jjavaholic: The file has been corrupted
[19:46] <apatheticshp> I am installing ubuntu 12.04 on a dell R210 ii - the R210 has a PERC 4e with 2 1tb disks, the disks are configured as a RAID 1 in hardware.  the Ubuntu setup however still sees 2 disks and asks which i would like to install on.  am i missing something here?
[19:46] <jjavaholic> how can I resolve this?
[19:50] <webgen> hey guys i have a slight problem, i installed gnome-shell on 13.10... text menu shows up halfway and i generally have a feeling that it still has the color pallete/text size from the unity. how do i choose gnome theme??? thanks in advance
[19:50] <yeats> apatheticshp: you probably have to install dmraid
[19:50] <nandha> guys can i know how to install rpm package
[19:50] <yeats> nandha: don't ;-)
[19:51] <yeats> nandha: you should try to find a deb, or install from source
[19:51] <jjavaholic> so I changed directory to /var/lib/dpkg/ and then moved ./status-old to ./status which cleared it up but I still have a problem with what must be the problem package cinelerra-cv
[19:51] <nandha> thanks
[19:51] <jjavaholic> "Errors were encountered while processing: cinelerra-cv E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
[19:52] <yeats> jjavaholic: try 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[19:52] <jjavaholic> you mean sudo apt-get -f remove cinelerra-cv?
[19:53] <yeats> jjavaholic: nope - literally what I typed before
[19:55] <jjavaholic> and then I got this: http://pastebin.com/peTiYbhz
[19:57] <apatheticshp> yeats - it's the ubuntu installation ... I can't install any additional packages until the initial install is done - but ... why would ubuntu see a hardware raid volume as 2 seperate disks?
[19:59] <en1gma> i have a windows laptop that i hooked up an external usb hdd. it has a 415GB ntfs partition and a 46GB fat32. i think im gonna use unetbootin to put ubuntu (which flavor not known yet) on the 46GB but i dont want it to mess with my windows drives (AT ALL) the external i have disconnected most the time
[20:00] <en1gma> how do i go about doing it so there is a swap partition and install partition in that same 46GB fat32
[20:00] <en1gma> i dont care if there is a boot loader on that drive
[20:00] <en1gma> but not on my windows drives
[20:01] <mike__> en1gma: fat32 maxes out at 32gb not 46gb
[20:01] <en1gma> crap it looks like it only wants to let me do it on the c:\ drive and that cant happen
[20:01] <en1gma> no its ok to format that ext4 or w/e
[20:01] <en1gma> that partition is fine to do w/e with
[20:02] <en1gma> as long as i dont lose the data on the 415GB ntfs partition thats already there
[20:02] <en1gma> unetbootin isnt letting me select that drive anyhow
[20:02] <en1gma> hmm
[20:04] <en1gma> looking for thumbstick and usb sd card
[20:05] <en1gma> brb
[20:05] <webgen> does anyone know why half of the text doesn't show up on menu items after i installed gnome?
[20:06] <hochmeister> can someone help me with this upstart conf: http://pastebin.com/hXS525Ed ?? It's acting strangely. When the logger command in the pre-start stanza is commented, upstart says "Job failed to start". When uncommented I get a classpath related error.
[20:06] <anon> how do I display user list on xchat-gnome
[20:06] <anon> on ubuntu
[20:06] <antifa> hello
[20:07] <SAilorR> nvm figured it out
[20:07] <anshulk> anon, ctrl + F7

[20:08] <anshulk> antifa, hello
[20:08] <xubuntu_> hi all
[20:09] <SchrodingersScat> xubuntu_: hello
[20:09] <xubuntu_> how can I format my ssd drive on live mode
[20:09] <antifa> is there any posible way to install openoffice and libreoffice together ? on ubuntu 13.10
[20:10] <Seveas> antifa: why would you want that? openoffice is pretty much dead, and libreoffice can do everything openoffice can.
[20:10] <Seveas> xubuntu_: with the mkfs command
[20:10] <xubuntu_> hmm
[20:10] <antifa> cause I have nothing else to do and I was trying to do this :))
[20:10] <user_> How can I put a windows iso on my usb?
[20:11] <antifa> user_ unetbootin
[20:11] <user_> antifa: heard the new unetbootin can't do it
[20:11] <antifa> ?
[20:11] <Seveas> antifa: well, your best shot would be to install from source. Get the build dependencies with sudo apt-get build-dep libreoffice and then do the ./configure/make/make install dance. Be sure to pick a PREFIX like /usr/local/openoffice so removing it is one rm -rf
[20:11] <antifa> try runing power iso
[20:12] <Seveas> user_: this channel is for ubuntu support try ##windows for windows support.
[20:13] <antifa> thanks
[20:13] <antifa> it sounds like a real head pain
[20:13] <antifa> :))
[20:14] <Seveas> antifa: it is. Also, openoffice takes rather long to compile. But you said you were bored :)
[20:14] <xubuntu_> how to format drive so I can install xubuntu on it_
[20:14] <mike__> user_: Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool
[20:14] <antifa> I already have OOo installed
[20:14] <antifa> :)
[20:14] <Seveas> xubuntu_: just start the installer, it'll do the formatting for you
[20:14] <jhutchins> xubuntu_: The installer will format it for you.
[20:15] <user_> I'm getting a "configuring grub-pc" package configuration prompt in my terminal, what does it want? Could this screw up grub?
[20:15] <xubuntu_> no, it wont, it lets some crap in there and it wont start, there was error in my previous debian and it is there still somehow...
[20:16] <xubuntu_> i would use gparted, but it does not seem to let me run in live/xubuntu
[20:16] <jhutchins> user_: Is it asking a question or telling you it's configuring?
[20:17] <jhutchins> user_: What were you doing when you got that message?
[20:17] <user_> jhutchins: It first appeared when I installed a package called winusb
[20:18] <user_> It says "the grub-pc package is being upgraded"
[20:18] <antifa> donno if live cds have gparted installed
[20:19] <xubuntu_> how i go to root in live xubuntu
[20:19] <antifa> sudo
[20:20] <webfox> How can I test a network connection on Ubuntu Server?
[20:20] <user_> Should I install grub on all my devices?
[20:21] <tomreyn> webfox: outbound, inbound, tcp, udp, something else? what's the goal?
[20:21] <user_> do I put it on /dev/sda or /dev/sda2?
[20:22] <Seveas> webfox: nc is a useful tool for testing network connectivity. tcpdump can be useful for troubleshooting
[20:22] <mike__> user_: i put mine on sda
[20:22] <webfox> tomreyn: the server down't seems to be receiving packages from outside.
[20:22] <user_> mike__: ok did that. lol if my laptop doesn't start...
[20:23] <Beldar> xubuntu_, This a computer that is uefi, maybe had W8 a gpt partitioning setup?
[20:23] <mike__> user_: you know who to blame?
[20:23] <webfox> I was guessing it was a DNS issue but I already tested it and doesn't change anything.
[20:23] <tomreyn> user_: in most configurations installing it to the MBR  (so to /dev/sda + if you have, other disks like sdb, sdc ...) is sufficient
[20:23] <tomreyn> webfox: how is the outside something connecting to it?
[20:23] <webfox> tomreyn: yes, by ssh
[20:24] <webfox> tomreyn: but it can't even ping a URL
[20:25] <tomreyn> webfox: URLs are just descriptions of locations, you cannot "ping an URL"
[20:25] <webfox> tomreyn: if I ping URL it fails but if I ping an IP it works. So it should be a DNS issue.
[20:26] <tomreyn> webfox: maybe by "ping URL" you mean running ping on a hostname?
[20:26] <webfox> tomreyn: I can ping google.com for example, no?
[20:26] <Beldar> antifa, If someone asks or root in any OS here get some context why before just answering, they may be on the wrong track.
[20:26] <mike__> webfox: nameserver needs to be set in resolv.conf?
[20:27] <Beldar> for*
[20:27] <tomreyn> webfox: "google.com" is a hostname, also "www.google.com", but "http://www.google.com/ubuntu" is a URL
[20:27] <webfox> mike__: resolv.conf is not a static file.
[20:27] <jjavaholic> http://pastebin.com/peTiYbhz
[20:28] <tomreyn> webfox: so, yes, sounds like it can be an issue with your domains' authoritative DNS
[20:28] <webfox> tomreyn: if I ping google.com it fails but when I ping <IP_ADDRESS> (google IP) it works.
[20:28] <Cherir> hi all i'm new on ubuntu , i want to install  my nvidia GT 610 drivers ( i have  Cd but i think it's just for windows ) So how can i install my driver . ///last time i install them on kali i have a problem " black screen " so i switched to ubuntu ///
[20:28] <tomreyn> webfox: ...or with the DNS client configuration on the system you are using to connect to your server
[20:28] <webfox> tomreyn: how do you think I could check and solve it?
[20:29] <Beldar> Cherir, There is an additional drivers option best place to start.
[20:29] <tomreyn> webfox: from where to where are you trying to connect? and where does resolving google.com fail?
[20:30] <Cherir> yes i see the  additional drivers  but there are 5 which on of them ?
[20:30] <webfox> tomreyn: I have a Ubuntu 13.10 Server running inside a VM as client of a Ubuntu 13.10 host.
[20:30] <webfox> tomreyn: and the client server is failing.
[20:31] <iknowalittle> webfox: just jumping in here, but it looks like your dns isn't working.
[20:31] <jhutchins> webfox: resolv.conf is not a static file, but whether it has valid content usually determines whether dns works.
[20:32] <Lunar_Lander> hello, earlier on I restarted my PC and ubuntu froze on login, then I did a hard reset and got the message "system running in low-graphics mode", another hard reset, then I got the recovery mode selection screen, but the keyboard didn't work at all, third reset, I could boot and got a message saying "MMIO" or something
[20:32] <Lunar_Lander> now everything works again
[20:32] <jhutchins> webfox: The contents of nsswitch determine how hosts are determined, but the defaults are usuallly correct.
[20:32] <Lunar_Lander> is this something grave?
[20:32] <jhutchins> webfox: How is your networking configured?  Does it use DHCP?
[20:32] <Beldar> Cherir, Use nicks here you can tab complete them, and detail what you see, for example in the additional drivers.
[20:33] <webfox> jhutchins: right. But where do I have to ove in order to set a DNS other then resolv.conf?
[20:33] <jhutchins> webfox: It depends.  Is the configuration static or DHCP?
[20:33] <Cherir> beldar  can i send you a screenshot ?
[20:34] <tomreyn> webfox: okay, let me try to get this right: you have a desktop computer running ubuntu 13.10, it runs some virtualization software, and so your desktop computer is a virtualization host. one of the guests (VMs) is a ubuntu 13.10 server. you are trying to connect from your desktop to this VM (the ubuntu 13.10 server), and it fails with a TCP connect timeout. is this correct?
[20:34] <webfox> jhutchins: yes, it uses DHCP and I set it to distribute DNS and set it to <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>. It showed at resolv.conf as nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> and nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> but nothing else changed.
[20:34] <jhutchins> webfox:  http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-ubuntu-12-04/ and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/serverguide/network-configuration.html#name-resolution
[20:34] <Beldar> Cherir, I'm not a nvidia user so others will be better help, in general you want to use the ubuntu repos drivers, make a image for the channel yes as part of your query for assistance.
[20:35] <antifa> sory
[20:35] <jhutchins> webfox: Ok, so you say resolv.conf is valid, can you ping those two addresses?
[20:35] <Cherir> beldar ok thnx :)
[20:35] <Beldar> Cherir, My help was to get you orientated for easy help.
[20:35] <jhutchins> webfox: does host google.com return an address?
[20:36] <webfox> tomreyn: not really. Almost there. I can connect from whatever BUT from inside the server it fails to translate DNSs.
[20:36] <adie> I broke my video drivers and i'm not sure what to do about it! no matter what I do, it boots in low-graphics recovery mode, but I can enable any of my nvidia drivers via jockey-text, start lightdm, and it works just fine. I've already remove/purged all drivers and reinstalled them, reinstalled lightdm, but no dice
[20:36] <webfox> jhutchins: I guess not. I am doing it really because I need a update of apt-get and it failed.
[20:37] <tomreyn> webfox: so from inside of the ubuntu server VM you are trying to conect to a remote location and this fails with a name lookup error, correct?
[20:38] <webfox> tomreyn: exactly!
[20:38] <tomreyn> webfox: can you connect to that remote location by ip address?
[20:39] <webfox> tomreyn: do you mean connect the server via ssh for example?
[20:39] <tomreyn> webfox: you said you are trying to setup an ssh connection, so yes, i guess so.
[20:40] <okee_> I want to create a new configuration file for my network using " isc-dhcp-server " , but i dont know how to move the default configuration file to a different name ???
[20:40] <webfox> tomreyn: yes, I can connect to it from client/host
[20:40] <yeats> apatheticshp: sorry - stepped away - did you figure it out?  and btw, you *can* install dmraid from within the installer environment
[20:41] <tomreyn> webfox: what is "it" and what is "client/host"?
[20:41] <iknowalittle> I have a ubuntu 12.10 server(actually a host with multiple 12.10 vms as well) that I want to upgrade to 14.04 when it comes out. I've read the upgrade path will be supported, can someone confirm this?
[20:41] <okee_> can anyone help me ??
[20:42] <yeats> iknowalittle: yes, LTS to LTS is supported
[20:42] <yeats> iknowalittle: wait - 12.10?
[20:42] <OerHeks> iknowalittle, 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 > 14.04
[20:42] <yeats> iknowalittle: sorry - yeah OerHeks is right - wasn't reading closely
[20:42] <webfox> I just changed my router to Set DNS Manually with Google DNS and resolv.conf has nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> but still failing to ping google.com and it somehow blocked external ssh connections.
[20:43] <jhutchins> okee_: Which default configuration file?
[20:43] <yeats> okee_: 'mv file filewithnewname'
[20:43] <wawowe> okee_: edit the init file in /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-server and change the command to dhcpd -c "your new conf"
[20:44] <wawowe> okee_: just the part after -c
[20:44] <jhutchins> wawowe: No.
[20:44] <iknowalittle> oerheks: 13.04 won't be supported anymore
[20:44] <jhutchins> wawowe: There are good reasons for retaining the standard configuration file name and location.
[20:45] <vicz> hey im thinking about installing ubunut on a new lenovo T440s, does anyone know if i can use wubi with either windows 8 or 7?
[20:45] <wawowe> jhutchins: why not? i know it won't stay like that if there's an upgrade but otherwise the best way to do it would be a link
[20:45] <jhutchins> okee_: I would copy the current file to a new name/location and then edit the original to suit.  That will preserve comments and explanations in the default file.
[20:45] <webfox> The log of sudo apt-get update is here : http://pastebin.com/jWaPd750
[20:46] <wawowe> okee_: jhutchins: cp old-conf old-conf.bak; rm old-conf && ln -s new-conf old-conf
[20:46] <jhutchins> wawowe: init files are not meant to be messed with.  If anything, they may have option files that can be used to pass options to the daemons, but it is best to stick as close to the defaults as possible,
[20:46] <iknowalittle> OerHeks: 13.04 support ends before 14.04
[20:46] <jhutchins> wawowe: That way in five years when you go back to work on the server again, you don't have to spend three hours figuring out what you did.
[20:46] <wawowe> jhutchins: how's my revision
[20:47] <OerHeks> iknowalittle, then you would need to do a fresh install
[20:47] <apatheticshp> yeats - no i haven't figured it out - still a little baffled why linux wouldn't see a hardware raid volume
[20:47] <wawowe> jhutchins: true, good point
[20:47] <OerHeks> iknowalittle, i would not risk upgrading VM's at all and do them fresh too.
[20:47] <yeats> apatheticshp: you're installing ubuntu desktop, yes?
[20:47] <apatheticshp> server
[20:48] <yeats> apatheticshp: hmm - then it should see the RAID okay
[20:48] <jhutchins> wawowe: I waste many hours following up after an admin who liked to obfuscate things.  I have become pretty good at forensic administration.
[20:48] <yeats> apatheticshp: you might check /var/log/dmesg for messages about that
[20:48] <basichash> How do I format my usb using terminal?
[20:48] <jhutchins> basichash: For what use?
[20:49] <iknowalittle> OerHeks: are you saying this because you know it? Or because you're assuming? this happened because of the oddity of the change of support length. 12.10 is supported until after 14.04 comes out, 13.04 isn't
[20:49] <yeats> !12.10
[20:49] <iknowalittle> OerHeks: They are just personal vm's(ubuntu server) and I really don't feel like rebuilding them, there is a bunch
[20:49] <jhutchins> !lts
[20:49] <iknowalittle> OerHeks:(if I don't need to)
[20:50] <OerHeks> iknowalittle, support as in update support, this wiki does not mention 12.10-14.04 lts > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[20:50] <yeats> iknowalittle: you wouldn't have to rebuild them
[20:50] <basichash> jhutchins: for a general system usb, both linux/windows
[20:50] <wawowe> jhutchins: this obfuscation could be an easy thing to figure out with ps. but you're right, in a large environment, it's best to stick to standard
[20:50] <OerHeks> seems like a death path 12.10
[20:50] <jhutchins> basichash: You'll want to keep it in whatever format it came with, probably FAT32 or NTFS.
[20:51] <iknowalittle> OerHeks: 14.04 isn't out yet, so no upgrades to it are mentioned yet
[20:51] <iknowalittle> yeats: I wouldn't have to rebuild them?
[20:51] <yeats> iknowalittle: using kvm for virtualizing?
[20:51] <wawowe> okee_: anyway, hope that helped
[20:52] <webfox> why does normally the server nameserver has the router IP and if I define this IP to be Google DNS it blocks the external communication?
[20:52] <iknowalittle> yeats: yes
[20:53] <basichash> jhutchins: do you know the command?
[20:53] <jpds> webfox: Because your firewall is likely blocking Google's DNS servers?
[20:53] <iknowalittle> yeats: that's actually why I'm on an odd distro, I wanted/needed some feature 12.04 didn't have
[20:53] <iknowalittle> yeats: I meant version, not distro :)
[20:53] <webfox> jpds: ubuntu Client has a firewall?
[20:53] <jpds> webfox: No, but your router probably has one.
[20:53] <webfox> Ubuntu*
[20:53] <jhutchins> basichash: I know several.  What format is it now?
[20:54] <yeats> iknowalittle: you can use 'virsh dumpxml <domainname>' for each machine, then just back up the images in /var/lib/libvirt/images somewhere along with the xml files
[20:54] <webfox> jpds: but it would be only blocking one system.
[20:54] <yeats> iknowalittle: then just move the images back into place on the reinstalled server, and do 'virsh define <domainname.xml>' for each machine
[20:54] <basichash> jhutchins: fat32
[20:54] <yeats> iknowalittle: there are probably other ways too, but that's one I've used
[20:55] <jhutchins> basichash: I would leave it that way.
[20:55] <apatheticshp> yeats is this because it's probabbly an HBA instead of true HW raid?
[20:55] <iknowalittle> yeats: Oh ya, that wouldn't be super hard. I have passthrough devices and such that I would have to play with as well. Arrays. All the good stuff(I hate migrating mdadm arrays). That is why an inplace upgrade would be nice.
[20:55] <yeats> iknowalittle: ok
[20:56] <basichash> jhutchins: ok thanks
[20:56] <wawowe> basichash: if you want to format it fat32, mkfs.vfat /dev/"your usb device"
[20:56] <jhutchins> basichash: If you need to reformat it for some reason, see  man mkfs.msdos
[20:56] <webfox> jpds: no, my router firewall is off.
[20:56] <genii> wawowe: With -F32
[20:57] <yeats> apatheticshp: if it's not hardware raid, then you should be able to setup md raid
[20:57] <wawowe> genii: is f16 default?
[20:57] <yeats> apatheticshp: but until you do, ubuntu will just see the component drives
[20:57] <jhutchins> basichash: Linux works well with Windows filesystems, Windows works only with Windows filesystems, so leaving it as-is is the best for Windows and will work just fine for Linux.
[20:58] <genii> wawowe: It *should* use whatever's appropriate for the media size. But if you specifically want fat32 no matter the media, it's the -F32 to specify
[20:58] <jhutchins> Again,  man mkfs.msdos
[20:58] <jhutchins> All is explained.
[20:58] <genii> Heh... "all will be revealed!"
[21:00] <apatheticshp> ext2ifs for windows
[21:02] <belkinsa> Is there a way to get global settings for Network Tablets such as GfxTablet?
[21:04] <nicferrier> can I ask an lxc question here? I've got lxc working nicely on my ubuntu 13 laptop... but a debian guest doesn't get a dhcp address. it just times out. ubuntu guests seem to work ok so the lxc bridge is set up correctly. anyone seen this problem?
[21:04] <yeats> nicferrier: sounds like a #debian issue
[21:07] <nicferrier> yeats: ok. I'm not sure. I was pretty surprised.
[21:08] <nicferrier> it's hard to debug... not sure if I can see network traffic on the host bridge from the guest
[21:08] <yeats> \
[21:10] <nicferrier> lxc-list --fancy shows no ip address for the debian guest. which makes sense. just not sure why it's dhcp is failing.
[21:10] <nicferrier> there's a an interface been created for the guest on the host as well.
[21:20] <okee_> when i run this command to specify the interface using this command i get this  " No command 'dhcpd3' found, did you mean:  Command 'dhcpd' from package 'isc-dhcp-server-ldap' (universe)  Command 'dhcpd' from package 'isc-dhcp-server' (main)  Command 'dhcpcd3' from package 'dhcpcd' (universe) dhcpd3: command not found "  ?
[21:20] <belkinsa> Is there a way to get global settings for Network Tablets such as GfxTablet?  Sorry for the repost.
[21:20] <okee_>  this is the command  ==> dhcpd3 -cf /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf -pf /var/run/dhcp3-server/dhcpd.pid wlan0
[21:21] <HTSjanedoe> Hello team.
[21:22] <okee_> any idea how to fix it ??
[21:24] <okee_> when i run this command to specify the interface using this dhcpd3 -cf /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf -pf /var/run/dhcp3-server/dhcpd.pid wlan0 command  i get this  " No command 'dhcpd3' found, did you mean:  Command 'dhcpd' from package 'isc-dhcp-server-ldap' (universe)  Command 'dhcpd' from package 'isc-dhcp-server' (main)  Command 'dhcpcd3' from package 'dhcpcd' (universe) dhcpd3: command not found "  ?
[21:24] <tomreyn> okee_: you probably want to run /usr/sbin/dhcpd from the isc-dhcp-server package
[21:24] <tomreyn> what are you trying to do anyways?
[21:24] <okee_>  <tomreyn> and how to do that ??
[21:25] <GivenToCode> is it possible to write a script in /etc/init.d to start a service in /etc/init?
[21:25] <tomreyn> okee_: you install that package, then, in your commandline, replace all occurrences of "dhcpd3" by "/usr/sbin/dhcpd"
[21:26] <GivenToCode> basically i am trying to modify an existing /etc/init.d/foo to call 'start my_service' but it appears from syslog my /etc/init.d/foo just keeps getting called over and over again
[21:26] <nicferrier> hum. I can even see the dhcp traffic arriving on the interface
 what package ??? i have already installed it
[21:27] <genii> GivenToCode: Although it might be possible there's already a  script in /etc/init which calls all the old sysvinit scripts in /etc/init.d
[21:27] <tomreyn> okee_: then skip this step and just run the modified command
[21:29] <genii> GivenToCode: So what will happen: the /etc/init script you want to run will get run at boot before the sysvinit ones get run from the upstart dir. Then the sysvinit one will get called and run again the script which was already run
 the command is dhcpd3 -cf /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf -pf /var/run/dhcp3-server/dhcpd.pid wlan0 so it would be " /usr/sbin/dhcpd -cf /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf -pf /var/run/dhcp3-server/dhcpd.pid wlan0 ?? right ???
[21:30] <GivenToCode> genii, i dont have my /etc/init script configured to run at boot
[21:30] <tomreyn> okee_: yes, i was wrong when i said "all occurences", what you got now looks like what you want
[21:31] <genii> GivenToCode: If it's -x then how is the init.d one going to run it?
[21:31] <tomreyn> okee_: (but then i don't really know what you want)
   i get this  " Can't open /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf: Permission denied "
[21:31] <GivenToCode> genii, -x? in my init.d script i added 'start my_service' where i have /etc/init/my_service.conf
[21:31] <iknowalittle> okee_: sudo
[21:32] <genii> GivenToCode: Can you please pastebin both your /etc/init and /etc/init.d scripts? This way we can study the issue
 same problem
[21:33] <Cherir> hi , i just installed steam , and cs 1.6  ( not with wine )  but it crash  !! ?

[21:34] <iknowalittle> okee: please use the name format start of message format I'm using, it highlights your message to whoever you're speaking to
[21:35] <tomreyn> okee_: i'll refrain from providing more support unless i have a clear idea of what you're trying to do, since at this point it's more likely you're doing something wrong than succeeding in what you are trying to achieve.
[21:35] <iknowalittle> okee_: tomryn probably has a point :)

[21:45] <negev> is there a way i can see what driver the trackpad is using?
[21:45] <HTSjanedoe> I did not know that, i will do some researchb=)

[21:46] <GivenToCode> ah i got it
[21:48] <Jordan_U> Cherir: You're not using the proprietary driver then. Unfortunately, for gaming on Nvidia graphics cards you'll want to use the proprietary driver instead.
[21:49] <Cherir> which one i'll chose ? the 1st ?
[21:50] <Cherir> Jordan_U which one i'll chose ? the 1st ?
[21:52] <negev> does anyone know how to get multitouch working on a dell xps-13?
[21:52] <negev> it worked on the 3.5 kernel but after upgrading to 3.11 it doesn't wanna know
[21:52] <Jordan_U> Cherir: I'm not sure, but I would try nvidia-304 first.

[22:00] <Gallomimia> ubuntu 13.10 with kernel 3.12 amd gpu
[22:01] <John_John_> how to install node.js ? i have downloaded and extracted .tar in a folder. now what ?
[22:01] <Gallomimia> HTSjanedoe: alias is a feature of bash. the linux command line is a book you can download for free which has very informative lessons on it
[22:01] <quants> Jordan_U ubottu thanks
[22:02] <Jordan_U> quants: You're welcome. Note that ubottu is just a bot :)
[22:03] <Rory> ubottu is not *just* a bot :(
[22:03] <HTSjanedoe> Ok I thought it was IRC command
[22:03] <quants> Jordan_U oops, Note im also an Idiot lol
[22:04] <Gallomimia> alias from irc? uh.... not sure about that. certainly not on topic in #ubuntu
[22:04] <Seveas> HTSjanedoe: I think you mean 'alis'
[22:05] <Seveas> HTSjanedoe: and to learn more about alis just /msg alis help
[22:05] <Gallomimia> a quick google search shows me that alias's are a feature of mirc
[22:05] <Gallomimia> in the same way that they're a feature of bash.
[22:08] <raub> If I want to use the ntp provided by dhcp, do I first need to comment out the ones in ntp.conf?
[22:11] <hoihe> .
[22:12] <raub> hoihe: ;
[22:12] <hoihe> Somehow.. I turned my ubuntu screen into a black background with an awkward mouse pointer after pressing some buttons...
[22:12] <hoihe> Ouch
[22:14] <raub> hoihe: like a console or ?
[22:14] <hoihe> Sort of like a console, yes. Had to restart to get out of it with my knowledge.
[22:14] <hoihe> Was playing NWN2 with Wine when it happened...
[22:14] <hoihe> Did it before..
[22:14] <Seveas> raub: you shouldn't need to. The dhcp hook for ntp should update at least /etc/default/ntp for you iirc
[22:14] <raub> Maybe you pressed crtl-alt-F1?
[22:15] <raub> Seveas: I did fgrep server /ntp.conf and it shows the default ones.
[22:15] <raub> The dhclient.leases files does show the ntp servers provided by dhcp
[22:16] <raub> Seveas: and dhclient.conf has ntp-servers in its request
[22:17] <raub> It just feels like it does not like my ntp servers
[22:17] <negev> is 12.04.04 just a newer version of 12.04?  why are there no other point releases in between on the mirror sites?
[22:18] <raub> negev: yes
[22:18] <raub> a lot of times the mirrors only put out the latest
[22:18] <raub> which in this case is 12.04.04
[22:19] <guntbert> negev: only the latest one is needed
[22:19] <raub> Disk space and all of that
[22:19] <negev> so if i install 12.04 presumably i can then just dist-upgrade to 12.04.04??
[22:19] <raub> negev: if your install iso is pre 12.04.04, yet
[22:19] <raub> s/yes/yes/
[22:19] <negev> cool
[22:19] <negev> s/\?\?/\?  ;)
[22:19] <guntbert> negev: you can install 12.04.4 directly too
[22:20] <negev> yeah its just that i'm generating a dell recovery iso and i think it specifically wants 12.04
[22:20] <raub> I suck in regex
[22:20] <raub> negev: if you go and dl the iso, chances are ti wil be 12.04.04
[22:20] <negev> 12.04 and 12.04.04 were available
[22:20] <Jordan_U> negev: How are you generating a Dell recovery iso?
[22:20] <raub> the dell box will try to care less but fail
[22:20] <negev> i got 12.04 just to be safe
[22:21] <negev> using a dell recovery iso generator tool from dell :)
[22:21] <rufsketch1> Hello everyone
[22:21] <negev> actually i think it will just write it straight to the flash stick
[22:21] <raub> negev: that is what I would do
[22:22] <rufsketch1> How do I go about setting usb disks to mount automatically when plugged in regardless of user action?
[22:22] <raub> and then, if you feel bored, make a menu in the stick so you can select the install iso you want to use
[22:22] <rufsketch1> given that I don't know in advance what model the usb disk will be
[22:22] <BlessJah> hi
[22:22] <raub> rufsketch1: if you are talking about the ubuntu desktop, it should try to mount it automagically
[22:23] <BlessJah> where can i read reliable libreoffice vs openoffice comparision?
[22:23] <rufsketch1> raub, I am not talking about the desktop.
[22:23] <BlessJah> or, which one support ms office format better?
[22:24] <raub> rufsketch1: I guess it sdepends on what you want to do, but bottom line is if desktop can do, there is nothing stopping you from automounting usb media
[22:25] <raub> rufsketch1: I do not know how to enable that in ubuntu off the top of my head, only in Solaris. Which is why I mentioned the desktop as reference (to steal configs from;)
[22:25] <Jordan_U> BlessJah: Unfortunately there isn't really any catagory where one is clearly better than the other.
[22:25] <Beldar> BlessJah, " where can i read reliable libreoffice vs openoffice comparision?" Not a ubuntu issue, second question to many variables to answer exact.
[22:25] <Jordan_U> BlessJah: Libreoffice comes with Ubuntu, so from a support perspective it has that clear advantage.
[22:26] <rufsketch1> raub, I believe the desktop doesn't automagically mount until you actually click on the device
[22:26] <BlessJah> Jordan_U: i'm choosing for environment with mix of distros, so it'll be painful sometimes anyway
[22:26] <raub> BlessJah: everyone is biased. From what I understood, libreoffice originally came from openoffice because of licensing or copyright issues with oracle
[22:27] <raub> kinda like mongodb vs mysql
[22:27] <raub> or is it mariadb?
[22:28] <BlessJah> all google returns are posts written shortly after LO forked from OO
[22:28] <Jordan_U> BlessJah: Go with Libreoffice because its website is cooler :)
[22:28] <raub> rufsketch1: a quick and dirty solution is to monitor dmesg and then do some mounting
[22:28] <BlessJah> yep
[22:28] <raub> But, unfortunately, no clown sex
[22:29] <Jordan_U> !language | raub
[22:29] <BlessJah> Jordan_U: that's what management likes
[22:29] <BlessJah> charts, presentations and colors
[22:29] <BlessJah> thanks
[22:30] <raub> Well, lemme try my ntp theroy then
[22:33] <Texas> am i connected
[22:34] <trijntje> Texas: yes
[22:35] <raub> nope. Still ignoring the ntp provided by dhcp
[22:35] <Texas> I am having a slight issue. I recently installed ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop, and I cannot figure out how to connect to the internet. I probably do not have the drivers for my wlan card, but I should be able to just instert an ethernet cable from my router and look for the drive, but nothing happens when I do this. The internet is still unavailable. I have looked through forum after forum..
[22:35] <raub> So, out of 4 OS (ok, 2 of them are linux  distros), only centos is paying attention
[22:36] <raub> Texas: I only know how to help using command line
[22:36] <Texas> Im in terminal already, tell me what to do
[22:37] <raub> look in dmesg for the names of your ethenet and wireless cards
[22:37] <raub> Just to know if OS found them
[22:37] <raub> lscpi might show them too
[22:37] <raub> Also, chances are you are running network manager
[22:37] <TJ-> Texas: "lspci -knn | egrep -A3 'net|wire'
[22:38] <raub> TJ-: thank you!
[22:39] <TJ-> Texas: a slightly better version, will catch more "lspci -knn | egrep -iA2 'net|wire'
[22:39] <Texas> the marks around net|wire are the back ticks correct
[22:39] <Texas> ?
[22:39] <yeticry> how to download ubuntu 14.04 beta?
[22:39] <trijntje> !+1
[22:39] <TJ-> Texas: to check if network-manager is installed: "apt-cach policy network-manager"
[22:40] <yeticry> i can't found any link on offcial website.
[22:40] <TJ-> Texas: no, single-quotes

[22:41] <Texas> which i should be
[22:42] <yeticry> xubuntu have daily-live version too?
[22:42] <TJ-> Can you copy that output to a USB stick and then pastebin it for us? The detail is very important, tells us the exact device
[22:42] <BlueProtoman> Why is my init process eating up so much CPU time in kernel space?
[22:42] <BlueProtoman> It's been doing so consistently for the past five minutes or so.  Literally more time is spent in the kernel than in user mode.
[22:42] <Texas> can i paste it here?
[22:43] <Seveas> !pastebin | Texas

[22:48] <Icehawk78> I'm having an issue connecting my TV to my desktop. I've got a radeon card and am using open source drivers, but when my computer starts to load Ubuntu, it only shows a black screen (the bios displays without issue, though). Connecting a different monitor over DVI (rather than HDMI) works, though. Any suggestions?
[22:49] <Texas> TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6973569/
[22:50] <Beldar> Icehawk78, Try a nomodeset boot than from that low graphics mode get the desktop drivers set.
[22:50] <Beldar> !nomodeset | Icehawk78
[22:52] <raub> Texas: does this help any? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2115659
[22:52] <Icehawk78> Beldar: I've tried adding nomodeset to the kernel, which does display, but I'm unsure of how to get the Radeon drivers to load afterwards
[22:52] <TJ-> Texas: "ifconfig -a" ... does that report any interfaces? If so, can you do the same again (pastebin) please?
[22:52] <en1gma> i just installed 13.06 ubuntu desktop. i thought they were switching that bar on the side to be back like gnome used to be
[22:53] <en1gma> i hate that thing
[22:53] <TJ-> Texas: Ignore the "lo" interface... we're interested in any eth* or wlan* or similar
[22:53] <terinjokes> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_3.2.0-58.88_amd64.deb fails with a 404 from IP <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:53] <en1gma> any "easy way" to make it look ole school
[22:53] <Beldar> Icehawk78, Than that is the issue, just stating a black screen when you know the nomodeset use is not accurate, state the radeon hardware and what you know works and have tried.
[22:54] <Beldar> to the channel as well ot me
[22:55] <Beldar> not*
[22:56] <Beldar> en1gma, Be more clear as to what you want for a desktop.
[22:56] <Icehawk78> Beldar: Ah, sorry. I'm not very familiar with graphics issues, my last TV didn't have any issues connecting.
[22:56] <en1gma> in previous versions of ubuntu its something "rollback"
[22:57] <en1gma> what did ubuntu 10 have
[22:57] <Beldar> Icehawk78, I read your first post as the desktop has a black screen, be really clear is all. lspci in the terminal should give radeon info needed here.
[22:57] <raub> en1gma: have you considered changing the desktop environment thingie?
[22:57] <raub> I use this one in my laptop: http://lxde.org/
[22:57] <en1gma> there is an "easy way" :) where is it located
[22:57] <wiebels> Weird file transfer issue with NAS server; unstable transfer rate that varies between 100MB/s and 6 MB/s. Both over network and even when transfering from NAS Disk -> NAS SSD. I suspect a SATA driver issue; any experience with such problem?
[22:58] <Beldar> en1gma, There is a pseudo gnome 2 fall back desktop.
[22:58] <en1gma> im in windows right now. how do i do it
[22:58] <en1gma> i couldnt get my net working but it was working fine during the install
[22:58] <en1gma> i need to reboot but i could have problems
[22:59] <Beldar> en1gma, There is no 13.06 is it 13.04 or 13.10 you have to be accurate here.
[23:00] <en1gma> 13.10 sounds good to me
[23:00] <raub> wiebels: which NAS (Synology, DS8000, etc)? Did you check for network issues, including packet sizes? How you are testing?
[23:00] <en1gma> i think i had 13.06
[23:00] <Beldar> en1gma, sounds good?
[23:00] <en1gma> i thought you were asking me what i wanted. i got latest one off unetbootin
[23:00] <Beldar> en1gma, There is no 13.06
[23:00] <raub> en1gma: lsb_release -a will answer Beldar's question
[23:01] <wiebels> raub it is a DIY build definitely not network issue as it also occurs when writing from NAS SSD To NAS RAID drive
[23:01] <Bray90820> So the white ballance is to high on ubuntu
[23:01] <en1gma> im in windows
[23:01] <wiebels> raub i verified this with a pv transfer through terminal
[23:02] <Icehawk78> I'm connecting to a TV over HDMI, and have got an ATI RV620 card. When I installed the fglrx drivers, I got a display but complaints from programs like XBMC that no valid drivers are loaded, with the system info showing "fallback experience" for graphics. When I removed those, and added 'nomodeset' to my kernel settings, I got a display, but was using the VESA drivers, which also don't appear to be providing any hardware accelerat
[23:02] <raub> wiebels: there is a lot of things to consider. I do not even know if disk alignment in SSD is still an issue
[23:02] <Beldar> en1gma, http://slick.pl/kb/linux/install-gnome-session-fallback-ubuntu-13-10-13-04-12-10-12-04/
[23:02] <en1gma> thnx just added it to my favs
[23:03] <wiebels> raub what would your first "guess" be? I suspect it is a SATA driver issue
[23:03] <Owen> does anybody here know how to fix monitor problems???
[23:03] <raub> Owen: soldering iron and capacitor time?
[23:03] <Beldar> !anyone | Owen
[23:04] <Owen> everytime i turn off my monitor (a vizio 22 inc tv
[23:04] <wiebels> raub fyr; it is a 2x1TB 4GB system with a 64GB SSD and intel celeron 1037U
[23:04] <Owen> i loose about 1 inch on each side
[23:04] <Beldar> Owen, All in one post please.
[23:05] <Beldar> gets lost easily otherwise
[23:05] <Owen> evertime i turn my monitor off i loose about an inch on each the sides
[23:05] <Bray90820> Why would the white bsllance be way to high on ubuntu
[23:05] <en1gma> thnx for info
[23:05] <en1gma> bbiab
[23:06] <high_fiver> does 13.10 introduce SSD trim to some degree?
[23:06] <raub> wiebels: I think I would use something like hdparm, smartctl, and bonnie++ to do some look-see
[23:07] <raub> wiebels: check those tools out. I just feel the sata drivers nowadays are not as shabby as they used to be
[23:07] <hussein_> How can i connect to wireless through terminal ?
[23:08] <wiebels> raub thanks, I already disabled hdparm on disks. In addition I just tested SSD -> SSD and Disk -> Disk on NAS; same issue!
[23:08] <Jordan_U> high_fiver: What do you mean "introduce"? TRIM has been available in Ubuntu since before 13.10.
[23:08] <raub> wiebels: I am really hard pressed to point my filthy finger at that
[23:09] <raub> wiebels: I would want to see SSD test against itself if I were in your shoes. And then spinny disk
[23:09] <wiebels> raub thanks, will start looking at bonnie++ smartctl not installed as it does not work very well with my samsung spinpoints
[23:09] <Owen> raub, evertime i turn my monitor off i loose about an inch on each the sides and it messes up the contrast
[23:10] <raub> wiebels: there has to be something that will do the trick. I know for instance that arecas can be a XXXXX in the XXX to let you probulate the physical HD
[23:10] <GH0> Is there a list of wireless cards that can support Ad-Hoc or AP mode? I have an Intel Ultimate 5300 N that doesn't seem to be showing up on other devices ,even though I have setup AdHoc mode on the ubuntu laptop.
[23:10] <raub> And they know I know
[23:10] <raub> Owen: any funy noises from monitor?
[23:11] <Owen> raub: no
[23:13] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, I suppose what I mean is was what is there currently available for 13.10 users - ie fstrim
[23:14] <Bray90820_> How would i change the white balance on ubuntu
[23:15] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, does fstrim run periodically
[23:15] <Jordan_U> high_fiver: You can use fstrim, and you can also enable trim in the mount options for your filesystem so that newly freed space is immediately trimmed (though that can cause slowdows on some drives that don't implement trim efficiently).
[23:15] <Jordan_U> high_fiver: Not automatically, no.  SOOO ANNOYTING
[23:18] <IdleOne> astropirate: please mind the language
[23:19] <Jordan_U> high_fiver: For the mount option trim is litterally run every time space is freed, so every time you unlink (rm) a file, or make a large file smaller via truncation.
[23:19] <astropirate> IdleOne, which one?
[23:19] <IdleOne> astropirate: no swearing please
[23:19] <astropirate> ohhh
[23:19] <astropirate> ok
[23:19] <astropirate> IdleOne, but how do I remove this stupid thing from my firefox? what is ubuntu thinking??
[23:19] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, fstrim + cronjobs every so often seems like a good solution
[23:20] <Beldar> astropirate, popups are generally flash, can you be specific on the popups, and there is a a flash block addon called noscript.
[23:20] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, dont suppose you can point me to some doc's, i presume this is the same method 14.04 will implement as 'default'
[23:20] <Jordan_U> astropirate: I don't get any popups when I use Firefox, so this seems to be a problem specific to your machine/configuration. Could you provide a screenshot of this popup so that we can try to determine where it's coming from?
[23:20] <high_fiver> *doc's = website
[23:20] <Bray90820_> How would i cnage the whiet ballance in ubuntu
[23:20] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, *docs=website
[23:20] <astropirate> Beldar, its not a popup, its a  firefox notification on top left corner of firefox
[23:20] <astropirate> to add the site as an ubuntu app or something

[23:21] <Beldar> astropirate, Get a screenshot a s suggested
[23:21] <astropirate> Beldar, yes wait a sec pleasee
[23:22] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, for the mount option
[23:22] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, but as it stands 13.10 isn't using trim
[23:23] <Jordan_U> high_fiver: The blueprint for what will be done in 14.04 is here: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/core-1311-ssd-trimming , and it looks like their planning to have a cron job run fstrim periodically rather than using the "discard" mount option (since the discard mount option can slow down all deletion opterations with some drives).
[23:23] <Owen> Bray90820_: check this site out http://askubuntu.com/questions/175032/how-to-adjust-monitor-color-balance-with-open-source-radeon-drivers
[23:23] <high_fiver> Jordan_U, excellent, thanks for that
[23:24] <Jordan_U> high_fiver: http://askubuntu.com/questions/18903/how-to-enable-trim is also a nice overview.
