[00:00] <rlmccormick> Hi all, slightly off topic but...can anyone tell me if VMware Workstation (installed on windows) can boot a Ubuntu installation installed on a dual boot machine?
[00:00] <danub> where do i go to get unity help?
[00:01] <mrb427> can anyone please tell me why I can't join #java ?? it says I need to be invited
[00:01] <ulugbek> rlmccormick: it can, but only after to have done the p2v migration
[00:01] <danub> mrb427: thats easy, you have to be invited
[00:02] <danub> mrb427: trying ##java
[00:02] <mrb427> how exactly would I get invited?
[00:03] <usr13> foreWORX_: Let's face it.  We normally don't give out our passwords so that others can log into our laptops from outside, so I don't see how that is a big threat to me and you. So... nufsaid..
[00:04] <SalahGo> Hello, i have 3G USB dongle (Huawei E372), i probed it, it's here, detected as a modem yet my GUI doesn't want to give me the appropriate option to connect...
[00:04] <foreWORX_> usr13, 0.o sorry i got disconnected. so not sure what your on about
[00:04] <usr13> own3d
[00:04] <danub> where do i go to get unity help?
[00:04] <gordonjcp> foreWORX_: then your computer was *entirely* secure from network attacks ;-)
[00:05] <usr13> mrb427:  /join ##java
[00:05] <davuxx> hi!
[00:05] <ulugbek> danub: here is a good start
[00:05] <foreWORX_> gordonjcp, YEAP
[00:05] <danub> ulugbek: thats what i thought, but no one knows the answer
[00:05] <mrb427> usr13: thanks, doesnt seem to be doing anything though
[00:05] <foreWORX_> except i have to get back on the internet
[00:05] <danub> so i want to try somewhere else
[00:05] <gordonjcp> danub: why not just ask your question?
[00:06] <usr13> !register | mrb427
[00:06] <danub> gordonjcp: ok, ill ask again
[00:06] <danub> i get an error NameError: global name 'GError' is not defined
[00:06] <danub> when trying to do unity --reset
[00:06] <danub> how can i fix this?
[00:07] <danub> right now, i cant scroll my windows...(not without using the pageup/pagedown keys)
[00:07] <danub> so i tried to do a unity reset but it gives that error and i see bug reports on it, but i need to get it fixed and cant seem to find the solution
[00:07] <usr13> 972304
[00:08] <gordonjcp> danub: have you tried googling for that error message, verbatim?
[00:08] <ulugbek> danub: you had this issue before or after reset?
[00:08] <danub> i have this issue before and after the upgrade, after reboots, etc
[00:09] <danub> gordonjcp: thats the first thing i always do
[00:09] <usr13> danub: upgrade to __________ ?
[00:09] <usr13> 12.04 ?
[00:09] <danub> from 11.10 to 12.04
[00:09] <ronson> 2.5.1
[00:10] <gordonjcp> danub: so did you try the first thing in the first hit on Google?
[00:10] <usr13> danub: Is this relevant?:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-lens-videos/+bug/972304
[00:10] <danub> gordonjcp: first thing that popped up on my results was the launchpad bug report with no solution
[00:11] <gordonjcp> danub: there should be an ubuntuforums thread?
[00:11] <danub> usr13: from that summary, no. mine is a dbus error relating to an undefined GError value
[00:12] <gordonjcp> danub: they suggest logging in using unity2d, and checking that unity is enabled in ccsm
[00:12] <ulugbek> danub: sounds like compiz borkery, are you using the same configuration files before/after the upgrade?
[00:12] <ulugbek> danub: ie the ones in you home directory
[00:12] <gordonjcp> danub: however without seeing the error verbatim it's hard to be sure
[00:12] <gordonjcp> danub: what did you upgrade?
[00:13] <danub> do-release-upgrade. it upgraded practically everything
[00:13] <gordonjcp> ah
[00:13] <gordonjcp> yeah, nice theory
[00:13] <gordonjcp> I have never seen do-release-upgrade work entirely without problems
[00:14] <danub> unity config was never changed so whatever was set during the unity install of 11.10, is what it still is (unless the upgrade changed it, i was never prompted about it)
[00:14] <gordonjcp> I don't understand why people bother with do-release-upgrade, it takes much longer to do that than it does to just do a fresh install
[00:15] <gordonjcp> then just script installing all the packages you normally add in
[00:15] <ulugbek> danub: there are some subtle differences, if you do not have heavy environmental customization, i would suggest using gconf (or preferred) to send everything to 'defaults'
[00:15] <danub> http://pastebin.com/FRFHS6pC
[00:15] <danub> that is the error
[00:16] <danub> gordonjcp: what was that link with the unity2d info?
[00:16] <danub> im going to give that a shot and see whats up
[00:16] <ulugbek> danub: as I suspected it is compiz
[00:17] <danub> ulugbek: so what? remove and reinstall compiz?
[00:17] <ulugbek> danub: try to disable then re-enable rather than install/uninstall
[00:18] <tking> hello guys, i don't know if anyone have an idea on how to ope a .csv file downloaded from internet, when i try opening it i get image1 as error but repairing it produces the other 2 pls view https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46512205/img1.png, https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46512205/img2.png, https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46512205/img3.png
[00:18] <danub> ulugbek: got a link? i know jack about the x subsystem. up until i installed ubuntu, i was always a headless redhat guy
[00:19] <ulugbek> danub: one moment, i just had to do this a couple weeks ago, looking for my txt file
[00:20] <machicola> What would be the preferred way to create a script that runs through several tasks on Ubuntu 11.10, on start up? Would I have to create a script from scratch & set certain parameters or should I edit a file like .bash_rc or .bash_profile? Any help would be much appreciated!
[00:20] <danub> ok, think i found something in the ccsm
[00:21] <danub> the dbus under unity wasn't checked (don't know what checking it will do, but we are about to find out)
[00:21] <danub> nope, still get the error. crap
[00:21] <trism> tking: looking at the second screenshot, looks like the file might be zipped (so not a csv file, or maybe inside the zip)
[00:23] <danub> im guessing i will have to restart for this stuff to take affect. lets see what happens
[00:23] <tking> trism thanks its not zipped, cos my friend opened it from his windows
[00:26] <Khisanth> the file has the headers for a zip file but whatever it is, it isn't a text file which is what a csv is supposed to be
[00:27] <Khisanth> tking: which program is your friend using to open it?
[00:27] <tking> microsoft office
[00:28] <Khisanth> because at least one of the office formats is a zip compressed .xml ...
[00:28] <danub> nope, still didnfix my error. how am i supposed to get the scroll bar in the search window?
[00:28] <dominoe> hi
[00:28] <tking> Khisanth, microsoft office on windows, i have experience this before with a .doc file
[00:28] <danub> or the dash home window rather? i get it on some other windows (which is a start atleast)
[00:29] <nulldev> microsoft > 2&>1 /dev/null
[00:29] <dominoe> anyone can test if my ssh server works by ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>please ?
[00:29] <nulldev> dominoe are you a honey pot?
[00:29] <tking> Khisanth, i renamed the file to xml and didn't work
[00:30] <dominoe> im sick it doesnt work when i test it from my network
[00:30] <nulldev> dominoe what about localhost?
[00:30] <danub> dominoe, you have to use your internal IP
[00:30] <dominoe> with the outside ip address but yes inside my network
[00:31] <danub> you cant give it the external if your behind the firewall
[00:31] <dominoe> that works the internal ip
[00:31] <sam555> hello all!
[00:31] <dominoe> I want to test if i can ssh from the outside thats why i ask here
[00:31] <Khisanth> tking: it's definitely NOT a .xml, it COULD be a .xlsx
[00:31] <nulldev> so your prob is your firewall or your routing
[00:31] <sam555> Does anyone know of an updated version of this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370738 for ubuntu 12.04 lts 64bit?
[00:31] <Khisanth> especially if it is supposed ot be a spreadsheet
[00:32] <dominoe> I eliminated all firewall rules did port forwarding
[00:32] <tking> Khisanth, but LibreOffice opens .xlsx files
[00:32] <nulldev> have you done a trace route?
[00:32] <dominoe> try ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-p443 tell me if you get something (I dont)
[00:32] <danub> nulldev: he can get in fine internally, he wants someone to test if they can access from outside
[00:32] <dominoe> traceroute works
[00:33] <nulldev> danub hence the trace route
[00:33] <ulugbek> danub: well i cant find my howto, must be at work, but -
[00:33] <nulldev> they go outside the network iirc
[00:33] <ulugbek> danub: something to try maybe to reset compiz to defaults via
[00:33] <ulugbek> danub: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/compiz-1 -and then-
[00:33] <dominoe> exactly danub thats what I want can u try it?
[00:34] <ulugbek> danub: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/compizconfig
[00:34] <tking> Khisanth, seeing it from my frnd pc its a .csv file (comma seperated value...)  but i thi
[00:34] <nulldev> dominoe why you binding ssh to https (443) Apche will be conflicting
[00:34] <dominoe> also this online ssh tests works and retrieves the ssh server fingerprint
[00:34] <nulldev> ^^
[00:35] <dominoe> I also tried binding with 5900 its the only two open ports available I have from my provider
[00:35] <nulldev> ^^
[00:35] <Khisanth> tking: it might be able to open xlsx files but not when you are telling it that the file is a CSV
[00:35] <danub> dominoe: you have alot more then that
[00:35] <dominoe> also this works: http://www.infobyip.com/sshservertest.php
[00:35] <nulldev> ssh will not bind to 443 if you have Apache running
[00:35] <dominoe> I dont have apache anyways
[00:36] <dominoe> and it works from the inside and from an external online test here: http://www.infobyip.com/sshservertest.php it rerieves the fingerprint
[00:36] <dominoe> so Im almost there
[00:36] <dominoe> but I read that testong from the inside can cause loopback problems
[00:36] <Loshki> dominoe: so which port did you forward?
[00:36] <dominoe> I forward 443 to 22
[00:37] <danub> ulugbek: 2 questions. 1, in your dash home, do you get a scroll bar? can you scroll that window? and 2 where can i set keyboard shortcuts? i looked in the keyboard settings but nothing is there for my shortcuts
[00:37] <dominoe> on the machine behind the router where the ssh deamon works (listening to 22)
[00:37] <nulldev> dominoe you have something running on port 80 so I think Apache is running my nmap was filtered
[00:37] <tking> Khisanth, well, i think its a csv bcos i downloaded it from a website many servers can create .csv files and not xls or xlxs most especially if site is build on PHP
[00:37] <dominoe> and internally its perfect I login from other machines
[00:37] <nulldev> dominoe service apache2 status?
[00:38] <Loshki> dominoe: Ag, I see it now. I do see a password prompt when I do "ssh -p 443 -v<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:38] <ulugbek> danub: no scroll, and i have no idea about shortcuts, sry :(
[00:38] <dominoe> perfet Loshki then it works !
[00:38] <danub> it doesn't have a scroll for you either? wth is that? how are you supposed to scroll your programs? lol thats so stupid
[00:38] <dominoe> I must have a problem that that same command ssh -p 443 -v<EMAIL_ADDRESS>for some reason does not work from the local network
[00:38] <danub> guess i dont need to reset the config then...
[00:39] <Black_> buenas noches necesito ayuda
[00:39] <Loshki> dominoe: yes, it looks like a functioning ssh server!
[00:39] <nulldev> 443 isnt needed for ssh either ssh is more secure than https
[00:39] <dominoe> ok Loshki great great man I was like 5 hours on this crap
[00:40] <nulldev> if changing port, you want to chaange it to defer port scans so an unused port or a used port by a service you dont run
[00:41] <Black_> descargue la actualizacion 11.10 de ubuntu y ahora cuando intento entrar de nuevo al sistema se queda buteando y no entra
[00:41] <dominoe> I can use 5900 wait loski let me change it... ok and try this now please : ssh -p 5900 -v<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:42] <Black_> quien podria ayudarme por fa
[00:42] <dominoe> I think its better I use port 5900 as a ssh binding to 22 instead of port 443 to avoid those https problems
[00:42] <nulldev> dominoe 5900 should be fine
[00:43] <dominoe> so please any one can try this and tell me if they get to the password prompt : ssh -p 5900 -v<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:43] <Loshki> dominoe: yes, it works with 5900 also. If you're going to leave an ssh server running, consider disabling passworded logins and only allow entry via ssh keys
[00:43] <dominoe> yes but 5900 is normally used by VPN/VNC
[00:43] <dominoe> yeah ok Ill do that
[00:43] <studio> i have a problem my unity dissapears i believe that i install cinnamon how can i fix this
[00:43] <dominoe> at least now I know its working... thanks
[00:44] <nulldev> dominoe you need ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-p 5900
[00:44] <dominoe> can you also test a vpn connection on that same IP?
[00:44] <nulldev> you can put -v after ssh
[00:44] <dominoe> i also cant get vpn fom the inside
[00:45] <nulldev> you setting up a honey trap?
[00:45] <dominoe> yeah the -v  was just to get info here
[00:46] <Black_> necesito ayuda
[00:46] <Black_> quien podria ayudarme
[00:46] <dominoe> dont know what a honey trap is i just want to see if it works from out, cause i dont understand why from inside it doesnt when i use the exernal ip
[00:47] <nulldev> dominoe a honey trap is what real hackers use to learn but also get the IP addresses of people connecting
[00:47] <rollingeye212> anyone know a website where Paypal could be purcashed
[00:47] <dominoe> haha no no i dont care about your ips i care about stopping to getting obsessed with this
[00:47] <dominoe> but ok ssh works thas already great
[00:48] <dominoe> so vpn/vnc should work to
[00:48] <nulldev> dominoe your issue is network related from what I see
[00:48] <dominoe> well yeah thats quite a general statement what esle could it be
[00:49] <dominoe> but rare
[00:49] <dominoe> I mean you can access from oustide and me fomr inside too but using the internal IP
[00:49] <yanick_> hi, I just installed the package phpmyadmin and the app is not accessible through http://localhost/phpmyadmin . It's the first time this happens :) what do I do?
[00:49] <dominoe> so my ssh is on the machine <IP_ADDRESS> and I can connect there
[00:50] <dominoe> but not when I ssh to the external IP binded to the internet (from the inside) but you ues
[00:50] <dominoe> strange no ?!
[00:50] <syd> I'm having some issues configuring SFTP for a specific user. I want them chrooted to the directory /media/Storage/Archives/. I have this in sshd_config. http://pastebin.com/bAwwZ7iK However, when I try to connect, i get "Connection reset by peer". Can anyone help me figure this out?
[00:50] <nulldev> dominoe so are all your services your trying to connect to responding locally. Telnet or port scan?
[00:50] <dominoe> yes locally telnet/vpn and ssh work perfect
[00:50] <nulldev> thats the first step of troubleshooting
[00:50] <dominoe> and from what I say also from the ouside
[00:51] <dominoe> but only when I try connecting to the sevices from the inside but using the outside IP they dont
[00:51] <dominoe> but yes when I use the internal IPs
[00:51] <nulldev> dominoe what services are serving external?
[00:51] <dominoe> only ssh and vpn
[00:53] <dominoe> so I can sshe from machine <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> by doing ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>BUT not by doing<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-p443 (but YOU from the outside, so outside my router yes)
[00:53] <yanick_> ok, found my solution (weird, though) http://www.frihost.com/forums/vt-98071.html
[00:54] <nulldev> dominoe Ive port scanned <IP_ADDRESS> from 2 different locations now and both blocked so its your firewall/router
[00:54] <dominoe> most ports are blocked
[00:54] <dominoe> but 443 and 5900 are open
[00:55] <nulldev> all your ports are blocked
[00:55] <V3NG3NC3678> what is ubuntu-offchat channel again?
[00:55] <dominoe> i dont control that
[00:55] <dominoe> its my provider
[00:55] <nulldev> so if youve need external access you need it open
[00:55] <dominoe> uhum thats why i use 443 which is open
[00:56] <nulldev> ok so you want to tunnel over 443?
[00:56] <dominoe> so if you get the password prompt by ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-p443  its ok
[00:56] <dominoe> i did
[00:56] <dominoe> some guy confirmed it worked
[00:56] <clock> hi all
[00:57] <nulldev> dominoe your trying to tunnel your connections through a firewall ?
[00:57] <ceti331> hi, can ubuntu detect 2-finger pinch gestures and use them for triggering actions like expo ( thats the exact feature i'm after)
[00:57] <dominoe> uhum its done
[00:58] <ceti331> ... or 2-finger rotate gesture for desktop switching (rotate-cube :) )
[00:58] <nulldev> dominoe from what youve said your trying to forward ssh (out) on port 443 https yeah?
[00:58] <nulldev> to get round a firewall?
[00:59] <dominoe> i just told the router to forward port 443 to port 22 on the internal machine <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:59] <clock> I have a monitor connected by 5x BNC cable so the automatic detection of monitor resolution cannot work by principle. The maximum offered is 1024x768 which is too low fo rme to work with. My monitor supports 1600x1200x85 Hz. I looked into the "display devices" but didn't find any option to enter the resolution 1600x1200x85 Hz manually. Is there such an option?
[00:59] <dominoe> to be able to ssh to my house
[00:59] <dominoe> thats all
[00:59] <dominoe> so I can work from outside if I need it
[00:59] <craigbass1976> What's the consensus on ripping DVDs that I've purchased and watching them on a computer that's hooked up to my tv?  Legal?  What's the best app to do it with?
[01:00] <dominoe> yes 443 on my internal machine which does not have https nor apache
[01:00] <chaos_zero> hello
[01:00] <dominoe> no sorry no
[01:00] <nulldev> dominoe yes but what ever your behind is blocking everything all my port scans have been blocked
[01:00] <chaos_zero> i was on my server setting up some ip routes tryong to solve a problem
[01:00] <dominoe> 22 on my internal machine 443 on the external IP
[01:01] <chaos_zero> i asked how i could get rid of the  old rules i made that did not work. they said ip rule fluse
[01:01] <chaos_zero> flush
[01:01] <chaos_zero> or something like that
[01:01] <dominoe> youre scanning what ports on what IP address?
[01:01] <craigbass1976> dominoe, are you on dsl?  don't forget to punch a hole through the modem too.
[01:01] <nulldev> as they respond locally ok but not externally shows its your network or routing
[01:01] <dominoe> Im on pppoe
[01:01] <chaos_zero> i did that and now the entire network is screwed up and all the ports are blinking like crazy and no traffic will go through
[01:02] <chaos_zero> if their some way to restore the router before the flush>?
[01:02] <chaos_zero> routes*
[01:02] <craigbass1976> dominoe, What's your modem?
[01:02] <nerratt> is there an easy way to change the default power options?  I have an old laptop running as a server but power options only seem to apply when a user is logged in.
[01:02] <sveinse> I'm running gnome classic on precise and my screen does not go into screensaver any more. It even never turns off the screens after a while. Where can I find the config for this?
[01:02] <Sav1or> rm -rf / will fix all your problem
[01:02] <dominoe> I dont have a modem the router is directly connected to a cable
[01:02] <craigbass1976> ok
[01:02] <dominoe> the modem is at my provider I guess
[01:02] <nerratt> 12.04
[01:02] <nulldev> dominoe if you want to route through 443 it has to be open
[01:02] <dominoe> it is
[01:03] <nulldev> its not my port scans from 2 diff locations show it closed
[01:03] <dominoe> check here its very open: http://www.infobyip.com/sshservertest.php
[01:03] <clock> How do I know if I have KDM or GDM on my Ubuntu?
[01:03] <nulldev> one of those boxes is a repo server
[01:03] <dominoe> just put my external IP and port 443 to test it and it retrieves the ssh fingerprint
[01:03] <lrh9> Has the problem with Karmic Koala Desktop edition LiveCD overwriting the Master Boot Record been fixed in Precise Pangolin?
[01:04] <nulldev> dominoe your on the same network your permitted
[01:04] <dominoe> no thats an online page
[01:04] <tester2> Does anyone know the basic way to install sea monkey on ubuntu? I download it but then I am lost at that point..
[01:04] <dominoe> actually from my same network does not work
[01:05] <nulldev> your firewall isnt blocking you
[01:05] <dominoe> thats why I asked here to test
[01:05] <clock> rm -rf / will not fix all your problem, it will destroy all the software installed on your PC
[01:05] <dominoe> no its not a firewall problem I opened all
[01:05] <dominoe> all rules are open
[01:05] <nulldev> Ive heard that many a time
[01:05] <dominoe> I dont know whY I cannot use the external ip to ssh from the inside
[01:06] <dominoe> but I dont care anyways
[01:06] <dominoe> as long as it workd from inside with the internal ip ots ok
[01:06] <nulldev> paste your ip tables to paste bin
[01:06] <dominoe> and outiside with the external
[01:07] <nulldev> your ports are closed external how many times Ive scanned you from 2 diff sources one a web server!

[01:09] <dominoe> hi clock
[01:10] <clock> Has anyone edited xorg.conf?
[01:11] <nulldev> clock lol not for along time (resoloution) It dont even exist in most distros anymore defo not Ubuntu after 8.04
[01:11] <clock> looks like I have to edit it

[01:12] <clock> I tried to follow "Adding undetected resolutions" on Ubuntu Wiki but these instructions don't work
[01:12] <Mckayknight> Hi all, I'm of need of some help. I have a huge problem I wanted to reinstall Ubuntu 12.04 from a fresh install while encrypting my home folder. After a while the install hanged or stalled and now I can't tell if part of my partition is damaged and can't be deleted.
[01:12] <nulldev> clock Ive never had to edit it Slackware, Gentoo so whats up?
[01:13] <jiohdi> clock, what are you trying to do
[01:13] <clock> I have a monitor connected by BNC. BNC carries only picture signal, no configuration signal
[01:13] <clock> So the PC cannot read out which modes the monitor supports
[01:14] <clock> I would appreciate if modes could be entered manually in the graphical configuration tool
[01:14] <clock> Not just selection from a fixed list
[01:14] <nulldev> clock can you not connect via serial?
[01:14] <clock> no
[01:14] <dominoe> ok one more test please can someone do : "ssh -p 443<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and tell me if the see the password prompt?
[01:14] <clock> Its a special long (many meters) flat cable which fits behind furniture
[01:14] <clock> My monitor is far away from the PC
[01:14] <jiohdi> clock, what graphics card?
[01:15] <clock> jiohdi, how do I tell?
[01:15] <jiohdi> clock, do you have nvidia?
[01:15] <clock> jiohdi, how do I tell?
[01:15] <nulldev> clock Im trying to think but I dont think consoles are handled by xorg anymore might depend on dist though
[01:16] <MonkeyDust> clock  in a terminal, type lspci | grep VGA
[01:16] <clock>  VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] (rev 01)
[01:16] <nulldev> gfx controller means nothing
[01:16] <tking> pls anything i can do to improve battery life? i have dual OS, on windows my battery lasts for 4hours while Ubuntu only last 2hrs
[01:16] <nulldev> he needs the tty
[01:16] <MonkeyDust> so it's ATI
[01:17] <dominoe> Btw, i am testing ssh connection on the same computer by giving my external IP. does it matter?
[01:17] <MonkeyDust> dominoe  try <IP_ADDRESS> as IP
[01:17] <clock> tking, is it battery life while being used or while being idle?
[01:18] <dominoe> that works
[01:18] <tking> clock while being used
[01:18] <dominoe> also ssh <IP_ADDRESS> works
[01:18] <clock> tking, can you first determine the typical CPU usage under Windows and under Linux?
[01:18] <dominoe> but thats cause im in the network
[01:18] <dominoe> id like to try with the external ip
[01:18] <clock> under Linux the top command for example
[01:18] <clock> under Windows there a graph for it
[01:18] <dominoe> Depends on the router. The only reliable way to test is
[01:18] <dominoe> from outside your network.
[01:19] <nulldev> windows 2>&1 /dev/null
[01:19] <clock> tking, if the CPU load is 2x more under Linux then it may be the cause
[01:19] <tking> clock, determin how?
[01:19] <clock> tking, do you know how to run commands in Ubuntu?
[01:20] <nulldev> no cpu works harder under Linux than windows unless is something m$ asp etc
[01:20] <filosofix> I know this probably is a google chrome issue, but does anyone else experienced the chrome trying to start the webcam and becoming slower (hanging every 5 second) ? If I unplug the webcam I have no issue...
[01:20] <tking> yes, but dont know command to check battery, pls advice
[01:20] <jthan> filosofix: Why would chrome be trying to start your camera?
[01:20] <tking> clock, i do know some basics like sudo apt-get ....
[01:21] <nulldev> filosofix you might have a rootkit run chkrootkit and rkhunter
[01:21] <jthan> tking: Under linux you can use the "top" or "htop" command to check your CPU usage.
[01:21] <filosofix> jthan : I do not know, but the webcam start blinking when chrome starts
[01:21] <clock> tking, yes so run command "top" and it will display CPU usage, even divided by process name
[01:21] <jthan> filosofix: I don't think it's a chrome bug, but perhaps you have a plugin or website open that is trying to use it?
[01:21] <rattatoue> I have a Logitech C210 webcam, its not being detected when Ubuntu starts. I have to unplug it and plug it back in like 5 times just to get it to start being detected by ubuntu for some reason. Then when it finally gets detected. It does this http://pastebin.com/yuyfVe8b and then crashes my wireless in the process. Anyone know why this is?
[01:21] <jrdnn> tking: Run powertop and follow suggestions for decreasing wakeupes
[01:21] <clock> tking, I would suggest watching this while doing your typical work
[01:21] <dominoe> so I did forwarded the 443 port of the external IP to port 22 on the ssh server in the internal machine and need someone to tell me if sshing into the external IP works (cause from hte inside for me it does nto if I use that IP). So anyone can tell me if they get to the password promt heby doing: "ssh <IP_ADDRESS> -p443"
[01:22] <clock> tking, do you watch Youtube videos a lot?
[01:22] <filosofix> jthan I have removed the settings in .config/google-chrome and reinstalled chrome, but it does not help
[01:22] <filosofix> chromium and firefox has no issue
[01:22] <jthan> tking: If it is easier to keep track of you could configure conky
[01:22] <tking> clock, not really, but i work on designing web page and learning c++,
[01:23] <filosofix> nulldev : I will check.. thanks
[01:23] <nulldev> dominoe none of my port scans are getting through
[01:23] <jrdnn> dominoe: It works
[01:23] <jthan> filosofix: Not sure.
[01:23] <clock> tking, I would check the CPU usage
[01:23] <clock> tking, and the brightness of display is identical under Linux and Windows?
[01:23] <rattatoue> dominoe: it works here also
[01:23] <dominoe> great jrdnn thanks youre the 2nd who confirmed, nulldev you were making me doubt
[01:23] <dominoe> thans rattaroue
[01:24] <nulldev> dominoe your problem is at your network
[01:24] <tking> clock yes, brightnes is identical, i do more stuff requiring cpu and memory on windows than on linux
[01:24] <dominoe> as long as loging in fron the outside works Im happy
[01:24] <filosofix> nulldev : chkrootkit finds a suspicious file in the oracle-java-installer by web8team...
[01:24] <rattatoue> anyone else expierence my issue with USB webcam and ubuntu?
[01:24] <dominoe> thanks guys good night !
[01:24] <nulldev> dominoe Id have been in by now if it wasnt ;)
[01:25] <jrdnn> dominoe: Good night
[01:26] <dominoe> nulldev try this port scanner, you might like it: http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
[01:26] <nulldev> filosofix there fine it alerts at hidded dirs .. if there in your /home/dir fine if there in / worry
[01:27] <nulldev> dominoe I use nmap no need for 3rd party
[01:27] <dominoe> seems nmap is failing from where do u use it?
[01:27] <nulldev> dominoe from 2 diff locations one a web server no
[01:28] <dominoe> strange :)
[01:28] <filosofix> nulldev : /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/lib/visualvm/visualvm/.lastModified /usr/lib/jvm/.java-7-oracle.jinfo   AND  /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/lib/visualvm/platform/.lastModified /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/lib/visualvm/profiler/.lastModified  AND  /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/.path   are reported suspicious
[01:28] <tking> clock, jthan, jrdnn don't know if anyone can come do some settings for me using teamviewer just asking pls i dont want to mess with ubuntu cos i hv re-installed 4 times in just 1month
[01:28] <nulldev> filosofix yeah you can ignore them its Java
[01:28] <dominoe> dont know why it fails you cant really help there
[01:29] <filosofix> nulldev : great... my pulse jumped a second or two there :D
[01:29] <filosofix> nulldev : I guess its a chrome issue then?
[01:30] <nulldev> filosofix Linux isnt as secure as windows is, your locked in /home/you you cant touch root
[01:30] <clock> tking, because of the battery eating?
[01:30] <nulldev> insecure*
[01:31] <filosofix> nulldev : not as secure :D had me wondering there for a second :D
[01:31] <tking> clock yes pls, i cant understand the powertop i ran cos i dont understand yet too much on ubuntu, hving too many probs as a novice :)
[01:31] <filosofix> nulldev : I only install a few things from ppa's that I trust.. the rest from official repos...
[01:32] <nulldev> filosofix you should be ok then but always check sum, scan before and after
[01:33] <filosofix> nulldev : It happened after the last update. I'm not sure if chrome got updated then or not.. will check tomorrow, now its long past bedtime in norway :) Thanks for your help.
[01:33] <kristenbcg> If I intercept all packets in input, and send their content through a raw socket destined to myself, will they be intercepted again ? What about output/prerouting/postrouting ?
[01:33] <nulldev> unfortunately we still rely on reading the source before compiling
[01:33] <filosofix> nulldev : will do... thanks
[01:35] <clock> tking, I think it has nothing to do with novice
[01:35] <clock> I have 14+ years of Linux experience
[01:35] <Alexis15> excuse me, i am trying to join ##linux, but when i type it says cannot send to channel. can anyone please tell me how to correct this?
[01:35] <clock> co-authored 25% of the Links web browsed, which is in most Linux distributions
[01:35] <clock> and still have no idea how to ask the battery status under Linux
[01:35] <clock> unless there is an icon on an ege of the screen which shows it
[01:36] <nulldev> clock what was your 1st distro?
[01:36] <Alexis15> you could google it maybe clock
[01:36] <clock> hmm
[01:36] <jrdnn> clock: apm
[01:36] <clock> I think it was a slackware installed by a friend
[01:36] <clock> which was then "customized" by manual compiling of programs
[01:36] <nulldev> clock so why did you not learn RTFM?
[01:36] <Alexis15> excuse me please tell me how to get into ##linux chat... i want to ask questions about the terminal and commands
[01:37] <l3d> is there a mate version of ubuntu ready  for d/l or do i have to install manually
[01:37] <Alexis15> it keeps saying cannot send to channel
[01:37] <clock> nulldev, I feel disrespected when you ask why I didn't learn RTFM
[01:37] <brohan> RTFM solves all problems
[01:37] <jrdnn> Alexis15: Are you registered? /msg NickServ help register
[01:38] <Alexis15> thanks jrdnn
[01:38] <clock> nulldev, and also unfairly criticized
[01:38] <nulldev> clock you said you have 14 years exp thats alot more than me
[01:38] <jrdnn> Alexis15: You're welcome :)
[01:38] <nulldev> clock you should know/at least understand
[01:39] <chaos_zero> i was trying to clean up all these ip rules i made that did not work so i used the flush command and now the network does not work correctly or do anything even after a server reboot
[01:39] <clock> nulldev, I feel disrespected when you say I should know/at least understand
[01:39] <chaos_zero> can i restore to like it was before the flush
[01:39] <bazhang> clock nulldev thats enough
[01:40] <nulldev> clock sorry for that I work with IT certefied ppl alot and Im a hacker
[01:40] <bazhang> !ot | nulldev
[01:40] <clock> bazhang, I feel disrespected and unfairly treated when you say clock [...]thats enough
[01:40] <nulldev> Those IT certifird no less than you
[01:40] <chaos_zero> please im dying here
[01:41] <tking> clock its not only battery problem really
[01:41] <nulldev> the only cert that can put ppl in a live enviroment is RH
[01:41] <bazhang> nulldev, stop with the chit chat
[01:42] <nulldev> bazhang sorry, was just responding
[01:43] <nulldev> We all love Linux so hands up!
[01:43] <Alexis15> go linux!
[01:43] <ddn> hi all, for some reason my network manager stopped starting at boot, how can I recover it?
[01:44] <nulldev> network manger? Is it starting on boot?
[01:44] <lrh9> I'm going to migrate, but I'm having trouble getting sorted.
[01:45] <ddn> nulldev, is not, I have to go on CL to start it
[01:45] <ddn> lrh9, good for you, you are about to start a great adventure
[01:46] <jimi_> How can I install the mysqlnd for php? i need the fetch_all() function
[01:46] <lrh9> I'm trying to figure out how to partition my disk and maybe set up a multiboot system.
[01:46] <jrdnn> lrh9: gpart?
[01:46] <lrh9> Burned the Live disc.
[01:46] <Alexis15> new problem lol.. ive registered with the channe. how can i sign into it now please :)
[01:46] <Alexis15> when i start xchat
[01:47] <lrh9> Right now I'm trying to figure out how to install grub and Ubuntu without borking the MBR, what partitions I should make, and how to use my wireless network adapter with NDISwrapper.
[01:47] <bazhang> Alexis15, try in #xchat
[01:48] <nulldev> ddn whats chkconfig --list | grep network  show?
[01:48] <Alexis15> try what bazhang?
[01:48] <jrdnn> jimi_: http://fishtrap.co.uk/blog/2011/06/16/compiling-php-to-use-mysqlnd-on-ubuntu/
[01:48] <nerratt> In ubuntu 12.04, how can I change default power management settings for when no user is logged in.
[01:48] <bazhang> Alexis15, asking about xchat ----> #xchat
[01:48] <Alexis15> i registered in ##linux channe, and now i wish to login to that channel i tried /msg NickServ login but nothing lol
[01:48] <jimi_> jrdnn, yeah, i dont wanna compile though, right? mixing source and packages?
[01:49] <nulldev> alexis15 bazhing is doing what I mdo worst expect ppl know
[01:49] <jrdnn> jimi: Sorry, unless there's a PPA for it I think compiling is the only way
[01:49] <Alexis15> i understand, but today is my first day on linux, and i have a LOT of questions about linux, but i can't ask them if i cant type.
[01:50] <Alexis15> so i need to know what the command is to simply login with the information i registered with
[01:50] <nulldev> why not build a deb src and contribute
[01:50] <bazhang> Alexis15, indeed, and the channel for xchat questions would be #xchat   , /join #xchat
[01:50] <nulldev> and dont forget compiles usually dont have uncompiles
[01:51] <Alexis15> i understand you want me to go to another chat and ask in xchat, but then i would need to register with xchat channel, login with it, ask the question, and then login with linux, and ask questions there, and since i'm only asking for 1 simple command that takes less than 10 seconsd to type
[01:51] <bazhang> Alexis15, you dont need to register with individual channels
[01:51] <Alexis15> it would be much easier if someone just told me the command. this is ubuntu chat after all, since it's the landing place for xchat, i assume it's a very general chat, and has no "specific" topic. Xchat is a program ran by ubunto, the OS i'm using, and should be on topic specially a question as simple as this lol
[01:52] <jrdnn> Alexis15: /msg NickServ identify password
[01:52] <Alexis15> thanks :D
[01:52] <bazhang> Alexis15, its not a single command to add a channel to xchat
[01:52] <SpacMan> You are already signed into the freenode server with the name Alexix15, simply type "/join #xchat" in this window and it will open the other room.
[01:52] <Alexis15> nope, i had to do the command jrdnn told me
[01:52] <Alexis15> hehe
[01:52] <Alexis15> it worked though, so thank you
[01:53] <nulldev> people who cant use irc maybe shouldnt be using Linux
[01:53] <bazhang> !behelpful | nulldev
[01:53] <goddard> we all start some where
[01:53] <luke__> amen
[01:53] <SpacMan> well said
[01:54] <Alexis15> well, we all start somewhere. try not to insult me just for not knowing where to start. i've taught myself, mysql, php, html, css, javascript and other languages all without knowing irc or linux. i've decided to teach myself linux. how could i havek nown i would need to teach myself IRC before learning linux? try to be a little more open minded :P
[01:54] <nulldev> nulldev << bazhang EOF
[01:54] <ddn> nulldev, is off, how can I turn it on for my runlevel?
[01:55] <zwickmobile> Hey guys, i'm attempting to install precise on my relatively new computer, but after i hit 'install', i get the stream of install text and then the video goes blank, and the install goes idle.
[01:55] <zwickmobile> No amount of searches on google have been helpful
[01:55] <Alexis15> i thought the command is: sudo apt-get install NAMEOFINSTALL
[01:57] <SpacMan> your image file may be corrupt. If you haven't yet, try re-downloading the Precise iso.
[01:57] <goddard> zwickmobile: do a checksum test
[01:57] <goddard> then you can figure out if the iso is bad like SpacMan said
[01:58] <zwickmobile> Before i do that, are there any other possible issues that are widely known?
[01:58] <Guest39970> Does anyone in here use Linux PPC64?
[01:59] <zwickmobile> I was worried it was the dual monitor
[01:59] <ddn> nulldev, \sbin\insserv is missing
[02:01] <Guest39970> I am using Xubuntu 10.04 on a Power PC Mac. It works great. I just wish I could find a good alternative flash player.
[02:02] <goddard> Guest39970: what do you use flash for?
[02:02] <Guest39970> Since adobe dropped the Power PC a long time ago.
[02:02] <Guest39970> Just for games and video
[02:02] <Guest39970> Gnash is alright for youtube.
[02:02] <goddard> Guest39970: can't help with games, but with video I prefer running them through a desktop client like Miro
[02:03] <Guest39970> I see
[02:03] <vp18>  does anyone have owncloud on their systems?
[02:04] <goddard> Guest39970: you can actually use your YouTube playlists and favorites like an RSS feed ... besides Miro Guide is so nice and most big independent media is on there already
[02:04] <ddn> nulldev, u there?
[02:04] <zwickmobile> Disabling my 2nd monitor to see if it is an issue
[02:04] <goddard> Guest39970: Banshee has alot of the same features as well if you want an alternative
[02:05] <Guest39970> Cool. Thanks goddard. I'll check them out.
[02:05] <Guest39970> I'm somewhat of a newbie so..
[02:05] <goddard> Guest39970: no worries
[02:05] <SpacMan> minitube is a flash free alternative for YouTube as well.
[02:05] <Guest39970> Does minitube work on Linux PPC64?
[02:06] <SpacMan> sorry zwick, no other issues that i know of. good luck
[02:06] <zwickmobile> Ok, so unplugging the 2nd monitor stopped the primary one from turning off, but the installation seems like its just hanging @ black screen
[02:06] <SpacMan> I think so guest. Don't quote me on that though, I'm using x86
[02:07] <Guest39970> I see.
[02:08] <zwickmobile> This is quite frustrating
[02:09] <Guest39970> I really like the xfce desktop. Preference I guess. It seems to work very well on this old Mac.
[02:10] <nikecru666> Hello,  I need some help here, does anyone can help me installing ubuntu? it get stucked in 5% and then shows a message that my hard disk is corrupted, anyone have any idea?
[02:11] <sultanselephant> nikecru666: do you have any other OS's on the HD for starters
[02:12] <nikecru666> sultanselephant, I had WinVista but it's already deleted
[02:13] <sultanselephant> nikecru666: in my experience that message could be more indicative of a bad image file than an actual corrupted HD.. how are you here with us now?
[02:14] <nikecru666> sultanselephant, with pidgin in windows, i know some basic things in ubuntu, i'm not a pro
[02:14] <sultanselephant> nikecru666: live cd?
[02:15] <Guest39970> I have never seen any message like that when booting from a live CD/DVD.
[02:15] <tj_> hey guys can someone tell me real quick does ubuntu default to a color PS1 if a color terminal is used?
[02:15] <nikecru666> sultanselephant, no pidgin on windows, my father's laptop, but the image i'm trying is allright, cuz it's ubuntu 9.10 original CD, Ubuntu sent it to me
[02:15] <tj_> im too lazy to dl a live cd to test it
[02:16] <Alexis15> excuse me, is anyone bored right now?
[02:16] <vp18> hello!!Who has Owncloud personal cloud storage?
[02:16] <Guest39970> nikecru666: Did you boot from the live CD?
[02:16] <nikecru666> yes
[02:17] <tj_> nobody?
[02:17] <nikecru666> Guest39970 yes, from live cd and it shows an icon on the top that says ERROR IN DISK
[02:18] <Guest39970> Well, "disk" can mean anything. HD, or disk image?
[02:18] <Guest39970> Hard disk?
[02:18] <nikecru666> Hard disk, sorry
[02:18] <Guest39970> Okay
[02:19] <Jon--_> Every once in a while sound stops working on my laptop completely until I reboot the system. Ubuntu 12.04. I've tried 'puleaudio -k' from terminal, no avail. alsamixer has lines set properly, no audio config or settings change, just suddenly mute. Help?
[02:20] <Guest39970> I have used dban to fix corrupted disks. It wipes the drive. This means that EVERYTHING would be erased beyond recovery.
[02:20] <Guest39970> But if the hard disk is truly damaged, then forget it.
[02:21] <Guest39970> You use it the same way that you would use any other Linux live CD.
[02:21] <databack> hello. I just DL'd Ubuntu and I'm wanting to learn BASH commands. What is the best way to learn BASH?
[02:21] <Zwick> Ok, so I did the md5 for my 12.04 install, it isn't corrupted, I'm still having issues with my install.
[02:21] <Zwick> I hit install, I get a stream of text, and then it hangs @ a black screen.
[02:21] <Zwick> I never see any graphics afterwards.
[02:21] <nikecru666> Guest39970 well, how can I fix the entire disk? like, deleting everyting, i already did my back up
[02:22] <Anxi80> I have a laptop with an ATI Mobility X1600. I am trying to figure out what driver my laptop is using. fglrx  in commnad line is unrecognized
[02:22] <Anxi80> lspci: VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI M56P [Radeon Mobility X1600]
[02:23] <Guest39970> nikecru666: You could create a restore disk for Vista, back everything up, dban the hard drive, and then start over.
[02:23] <Guest39970> dban wipes the disk.
[02:23] <Anxi80> ubuntu proprietary drivers tool is listing nothing for me
[02:23] <Alexis15> excuse me, i'm trying to use VIM, but when it runs, all i get is a bunch of ~'s . I try to type :q and press enter to exit, but nothing happens it wotn even type anything
[02:23] <Loshki> nikecru666: can you download and burn cds?
[02:23] <Guest39970> It means that EVERYTHING would be totally erased.
[02:24] <nikecru666> Loshki, yes I have another computer
[02:24] <Jon--> Every once in a while sound stops working on my laptop completely until I reboot the system. Ubuntu 12.04. I've tried 'puleaudio -k' from terminal, no avail. alsamixer has lines set properly, no audio config or settings change, just suddenly mute. Help?
[02:24] <Alexis15> excuse me, i'm trying to use VIM, but when it runs, all i get is a bunch of ~'s . I try to type :q and press enter to exit, but nothing happens it wotn even type anything
[02:25] <nikecru666> Guest39970, ok, I'm ready for deleting everything
[02:25] <Alexis15> i looked up guides online, but they jsut say to type commands, but i cant type ANYTHING
[02:25] <Alexis15> so the guides are not helping
[02:25] <Loshki> nikecru666: in your place, I'd download and run the manufacturers disk diagnostics. Then you'll know if your disk is good.  Just like you did with Ubuntu.
[02:27] <Guest39970> Boot from the dban disk, and then it will erase everything.
[02:27] <Alexis15> excuse me, i'm trying to use VIM, but when it runs, all i get is a bunch of ~'s . I try to type :q and press enter to exit, but nothing happens it wotn even type anything
[02:28] <Guest39970> You will have some options to choose from of course.
[02:28] <bazhang> !repeat | Alexis15
[02:29] <Alexis15> ya but
[02:29] <Alexis15> im suer all you know how to use vi
[02:29] <Alexis15> your just ignoring me
[02:29] <Alexis15> im assuming its like a 5 second answer
[02:29] <judget> so is your question specifically abpout how to use the vi editor?
[02:30] <Alexis15> my question is abotu how to use a program ran in ubuntu
[02:30] <Alexis15> a very common program
[02:30] <Alexis15> not even that
[02:30] <Alexis15> i can look up guides on how to use it
[02:30] <Alexis15> i just dont understand why it says to use commands in the guide when i can't type ANYTHING
[02:30] <Alexis15> so the guide is worthless
[02:30] <Alexis15> i cant even exit vim
[02:30] <judget> maybe if you start at the beginning I can try to help u
[02:31] <tj_> Alexis15, strange sounds like your not doing anything wrong
[02:31] <Alexis15> id have to close the terminal to get back to the cli
[02:31] <pingcasts> Alexis15: :q to exit vi
[02:31] <Alexis15> what is :q
[02:31] <tj_> from cmd mode (default mode) you just hit :q to quit
[02:31] <Alexis15> do i literallty type :q?
[02:31] <pingcasts> a colon and then a q
[02:31] <pingcasts> yes
[02:31] <Alexis15> ok well i can't type ANYTHING
[02:31] <Alexis15> all i see is a bunch of ~ lines
[02:31] <pingcasts> the colon enters command mode
[02:31] <pingcasts> and you'll see the text at the bottom of the screen
[02:32] <Alexis15> i see :q
[02:32] <Alexis15> and i press enter
[02:32] <pingcasts> that's where you can tell the text editor to do something
[02:32] <Alexis15> but nothing happens
[02:32] <judget> I always forget how to use vi manytimes i use nano buit here is a handy vi guide that I have kept bookmarked for myself
[02:32] <pingcasts> yes
[02:32] <judget> http://www.adminschoice.com/vi-editor-quick-reference
[02:32] <pingcasts> hit ZQ
[02:32] <nikecru666> Guest39970, Loshki, I'll try to use dban, well the manufacturer od the HD idk really
[02:32] <Jon--> Alexis15, Press the following key combination. <ESC> :q! <ENTER>
[02:32] <Jon--> Note you will lose any unwritten data to the file.
[02:32] <tj_> ^this should def do it
[02:33] <Jon--> Every once in a while sound stops working on my laptop completely until I reboot the system. Ubuntu 12.04. I've tried 'puleaudio -k' from terminal, no avail. alsamixer has lines set properly, no audio config or settings change, just suddenly mute. Help?
[02:33] <Alexis15> it says no write to last change
[02:33] <Alexis15> press ! to over ride
[02:33] <Jon--> Alexis15, That's the ! I gave you.
[02:33] <Jon--> Alternatively do :wq to write+quit
[02:33] <Guest39970> nikecru666: Just remember, all data on that disk will be deleted beyond recovery!
[02:33] <pingcasts> Jon--: did you restart pulse afterwards?
[02:33] <Jon--> pingcasts, The service?
[02:33] <nikecru666> Guest39970, Loshki, thank you! I'll try and I'll let you know if I have any positive results
[02:33] <Alexis15> thanks jon
[02:33] <databack> So Im primarily a .NET developer and have been using Visual Studio for pretty much the entire time...and Im now trying to use VIM as an IDE......WTF
[02:33] <pingcasts> Jon--: just pulseaudio from the runbox or cli
[02:34] <pingcasts> databack: it takes some getting used to
[02:34] <Loshki> nikecru666: ok. Just be aware that if the hard disk itself is malfunctioning, it won't matter how much you clean it...
[02:34] <Jon--> pingcasts, yes, though I used the -k flag. Without it same deal
[02:34] <Guest39970> I mentioned that earlier.
[02:34] <Jon--> [Ubuntu autmoatically restarts it if you kill it, at least it did on 11.10]
[02:35] <Jon--> Whereas if you run it and its running it just complains and errors out.
[02:36] <pingcasts> Alexis15: did you get out of vi?
[02:36] <nikecru666> Guest39970, Loshki, thank you again!  I execute apt-get update/upgrade upon logging in root at start.. then immediately create a new user: adduser newguy and moduser -aG sudo newguy ... but when logging into using the account I get the error "must be setuid root"... what did I do wrong or how do I fix this?
[02:51] <drag0nius2> anyone knows some nice guide on how to set up wifi AP using CLI?
[02:52] <IdleOne> pooloo: is the new user in the admin group?
[02:53] <Guest59220> I don't know
[02:54] <joli_> oh....
[02:54] <bazhang> !wifi | drag0nius2 here
[02:55] <x1k> and via google
[02:55] <pooloo> IdleOne: admin group supposedly doesn't exist in 12.04
[02:56] <IdleOne> pooloo: ok the sudo group
[02:57] <pooloo> yea i ran: moduser -aG sudo
[02:57] <IdleOne> sudo adduser <username> sudo
[02:58] <pooloo> did that too.. apparently .. i had to chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
[02:58] <pooloo> that seems to have worked... but why do i need to do that on a fresh install?
[02:59] <IdleOne> pooloo: only the first user gets added to the sudo group default. new users need to be added to the group
[02:59] <jthan> Isn't it sufficient just to add them using visudo?
[02:59] <drag0nius2> with hostapd i dont need to set anything up?
[03:00] <drag0nius2> just /etc/defaults/hostapd and /etc/hsotapd/hostapd.conf?
[03:00] <pooloo> IdleOne: The user was added to the group...
[03:00] <IdleOne> pooloo: got me
[03:01] <pooloo> IdleOne: runnning: chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo .. fixed the issue. Any reason why that I would have to do that?
[03:01] <IdleOne> pooloo: honestly I don't know
[03:02] <pooloo> jthan: I tried that as well and same issue with 12.04. Never had an issue when I was using 11.10 though..
[03:02] <drag0nius2> well brb, gonna restart serv
[03:02] <[Derek]> Happy Fourth Everyone :)
[03:03] <cornfeed> cheers
[03:09] <drag0nius2> whats the tool to set up PPPoA/PPPoE connection @ ubuntu server?
[03:11] <cornfeed> drag0nius2: pppoeconf
[03:11] <psusi> I'll tell you what I know about PPPoE... it is a terrible, horrible, no good very bad protocol that should never be used
[03:11] <drag0nius2> then whats stuff to set up pppoa? ;d
[03:11] <john206> Hi guys, can anyone help me with ubuntu server ks.cfg error?
[03:11] <drag0nius2> ISP recommends pppoa too
[03:11] <kvennskop> is it possable to install ubuntu from another partition on my pc ? (can not access cd or usb pendrive)
[03:12] <psusi> the only protocol an ISP should be using is IP
[03:12] <psusi> if they use pppoe, dump 'em
[03:13] <drag0nius2> i dont know of any ISP not using pppoa/pppoe/digitals in my country ;d
[03:13] <psusi> wow, that sucks
[03:14] <drag0nius2> there might be one available
[03:14] <drag0nius2> but installation costs 1.5k ?
[03:14] <drag0nius2> *euro
[03:14] <psusi> gee, IP was meant to go over ethernet already, but let's shove a protocol meant to carry it over serial modems in between, just because we're idiots
[03:15] <drag0nius2> thats because 99% lines are phone
[03:16] <drag0nius2> they started laying fibers like 2-3 years ago
[03:16] <drag0nius2> and only one ISP
[03:17] <drag0nius2> hmm...
[03:18] <drag0nius2> bridge mode still handles modem functionality?
[03:18] <akr> hi guys
[03:20] <akr> I'm running 12.04 LTS and I wanted to know can I edit the Unit Dash sections? I would like there to be sections just like there are menu sections in Gnome and KDE, Graphics, Internet, Office, etc...  For starters I'd like to be able to remove the online videos appearing in the video section
[03:22] <akr> wow I've never seen this channel so slow, anyone around here?
[03:22] <Zapsoda> hi
[03:23] <Zapsoda> can someone help me
[03:23] <Zapsoda> ?
[03:23] <Zapsoda> is there a driver for linux alfa awus036nha wifi card
[03:23] <bazhang> !info myunity | akr you mean this?
[03:23] <bazhang> Zapsoda, whats the chipset
[03:25] <akr> well are you guys using Unity?
[03:25] <Therionized> Nope
[03:25] <Therionized> Cinnamon
[03:25] <bazhang> akr, did you try myunity?
[03:25] <bazhang> Zapsoda, is this usb or pci
[03:25] <akr> not much of what I'd call broken down into sections, just 'Applications' with everything thrown together
[03:25] <akr> yeah let me look thanks
[03:25] <devslash> When I log into ubuntu it says that 2 packages can be updated. Am I supposed to do apt-get update to update them?
[03:26] <xangua> menu sections in Gnome and KDE, Graphics, Internet, Office, etc...  - it already have it akr, select Filter Results in the app tab
[03:26] <bazhang> devslash, its a good idea to keep up to date, esp. for security updates
[03:26] <akr> ahh ok
[03:26] <devslash> How
[03:27] <Zapsoda> its usb
[03:27] <bazhang> sudo apt-get update  followed by sudo apt-get upgrade devslash
[03:27] <bazhang> Zapsoda, so check lsusb and paste.ubuntu.com with the output from terminal
[03:28] <akr> hmm not quite what I'm looking for the filter results, maybe the myunity will do the trick
[03:28] <duhamel> hello all, My printer (Brother Mfc -j615w) won't print. I'm running Ubuntu Studio 12.04 I have unpacked drivers in /var/spool/ and everything looks right. Printer says its working, the print queue says the jobs are complete, but no printing is happening.
[03:28] <devslash> Bazhang.  I'm running Ubuntu Studio 12.04 I have unpacked drivers in /var/spool/ and everything looks right. Printer says its working, the print queue says the jobs are complete, but no printing is happening.
[03:35] <duhamel> how would i find a channel where people would discuss printer problems?
[03:36] <daniel_p> Have you tried looking on Google for a solution?
[03:36] <akr> well I don't see myunity with any options to categorize and make menus
[03:37] <duhamel> yeah. no luck
[03:37] <daniel_p> Have you tried contacting the manufacturer?
[03:37] <duhamel> no. it worked until i reinstalled ubuntu onto ssd
[03:38] <daniel_p> That's odd. Someone here could probably help, if not then try the forums
[03:38] <duhamel> yeah.
[03:40] <duhamel> hello all, My printer (Brother Mfc -j615w) won't print. I'm running Ubuntu Studio 12.04 I have unpacked drivers in /var/spool/ and everything looks right. Printer says its working, the print queue says the jobs are complete, but no printing is happening.
[03:40] <barettm16> I am running ubuntu 32 bit and planning to upgrade my RAM from 2GB to 6GB... So obviously I have to go 64bit, is reinstalling the only way???
[03:41] <xangua> !pae | barettm16
[03:41] <xangua> since precice ubuntu uses the pae kernel by default also
[03:41] <RyuGuns> Hey everyone, and happy independence day to my fellow US Americans,
[03:41] <RyuGuns> now I've been having a rather strange thing happen. On boot up, GRUB's background says "Debian, the universal operating system" or something like that. I haven't installed the Debian operating system itself  on my machine yet it started displaying that that all of a sudden out of nowhere, why is that?
[03:41] <xangua> Precice Pangolin*
[03:41] <tinkster> ubuntu 12.04, dhcp networking ... I can't seem to get name resolution going.  Other clients (e.g. SLES, debian squeeze) on dhcp get a resolv.conf from the dhcp server and are happy.  On the ubunut host it stays a symlink to an empty file
[03:41] <barettm16> thanks xangua... will have a look
[03:41] <tinkster> how do I make this work?
[03:42] <akr> ok I guess the sections in Unity are called 'lens'? So I guess I can remove the video one, but I would like to keep it and just remove all the online video content and instead have it replaced where video applications go
[03:43] <tinkster> set-up is quite straightforward ...
[03:43] <tinkster> /etc/network/interfaces
[03:43] <tinkster> auto eth0
[03:43] <akr> and when you open up the Dash it just says 'Installed' So no way in the Dash to make sections and have the applications placed there?
[03:44] <tinkster> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[03:44] <tinkster> gets a lease, no sweat ...
[03:44] <bairui> i keep losing messages when chatting in empathy to People Nearby. I'm on u12.04, wifi. Nothing suspicious in the debug log.
[03:45] <nbd_> hello
[03:47] <Keverw> I'm using Ubuntu Minimal and df -h says it's using about 2.6GB. Can I make it even smaller? I uninstalled the games. Just wanting to make it really small.
[03:47] <akr> damm so this is all the crap involved with creating like menu categories now called lens in Unity; https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Lenses/
[03:48] <Sosumi> heya
[03:48] <ds_> hi all
[03:49] <ds_> how can i change my wallpaper every 1 hour
[03:49] <Sosumi> as anyone tried ubuntu on the samsung 700G7A?
[03:50] <glitsj16> tinkster: have you seen http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-ubuntu-12-04/ ? dns resolving in 12.04 has quite some changes
[03:50] <Sosumi> and know if things like the kb backlight and webcam work
[03:50] <dj_segfault> ds_: I do that.  What you do is copy an image to some name you standardize on, like current_wallpaper.jpg, and set that to your wallpaer.  Then set up a cron job to copy over that file with a different image every hour.  When you overwrite the file, the wallpaper will change.
[03:53] <daoneunv_> What
[03:53] <daoneunv_> is a good messenger program?
[03:53] <ki4ro> Does anyone understand HUD?  For example, if I type Terminal in HUD it has no idea what I want????
[03:53] <dj_segfault> daoneunv_: Pidgin is my favorite
[03:53] <daoneunv_> Pidgin is going crazy
[03:53] <daoneunv_> With my gnome 3 notifications
[03:53] <dj_segfault> Maybe you fed it stale breadrumbs
[03:54] <daoneunv_> brb gunna do a reboot
[03:54] <dj_segfault> sorry, joke fail.  Breadcrumbs are already stale
[03:54] <john__> Hey, I have a security question
[03:55] <tinkster> glitsj16, yah, I happened across that.  most of it is of interest for static networking
[03:55] <tinkster> dhcp should "just work"
[03:55] <tinkster> only it doesn't ...
[03:55] <gaelfx> is it possible to add a USB.ID to a module so that that module will load when the USB device is plugged in?
[03:55] <xangua> ki4ro: the hud is for acces the active window menu entries, you can also use indicator menu entries
[03:55] <john__> When I connect to my VPN my time bar occasionally pops up, I think.
[03:55] <tr3nton> !hud
[03:56] <tinkster> getting quite annoyed ... resorted to cyclically cat-ting a known good resolv.conf over the symlinled dynamically created file from cron
[03:56] <john__> Is someone trying to find my timezone?
[03:56] <tinkster> no pretty
[03:56] <ki4ro> xangua: I don't understand...sorry
[03:56] <xangua> ki4ro: acces active window menu entries
[03:57] <ki4ro> xangua: You mean if I have Firefox open I can do things with it from HUD?
[03:59] <gaelfx> so that's a no then, eh?
[03:59] <akr> any Unity pros around that can tell me if I can organize the applications into sections, typical of what you find on a menu, Graphics, Office, Internet, Multimedia, etc...?
[03:59] <glitsj16> tinkster: can't say that i grasp all the changes, personally i took out dnsmasq and all returned to 'normal'
[04:01] <tinkster> glitsj16, I did that, too ... no difference
[04:01] <tinkster> I just don't consider the behaviour of the boxen "normal"
[04:02] <tr3nton> akr, in the applications lens, there is a filter button
[04:02] <tr3nton> top right hand corner
[04:02] <ki4ro> Does anyone understand HUD?  For example, if I type Terminal in HUD it has no idea what I want????
[04:02] <tinkster> f*ck, if I had seen such behaviour on a linux machine ~ 16 years ago I wouldn't be making bread using Linux these days
[04:03] <xangua> (22:57:40) ki4ro: xangua: You mean if I have Firefox open I can do things with it from HUD? - you can acces firefox menu entries
[04:03] <tr3nton> ki4ro: hud isn't for finding applications
[04:03] <Loshki> gaelfx: I think it can be done via udev, dunno the details though...
[04:03] <sinusss> okay, i think the Ubuntu Desktop 12.04 LTS is painful...
[04:03] <akr> tr3nton: I'm not talking about filtering results but instead, when you open the Dash you have it divided up into sections
[04:03] <sinusss> i will be doing LAMP stuff - what is the recommended release for me?
[04:04] <ki4ro> tr3nton: Okay.  How is that easier/better than accessing them from the application?
[04:05] <tr3nton> ki4ro: don't know, I still use the menu's my pointing my mouse at them
[04:06] <ki4ro> tr3nton: Yeah, me too.  LOL  Can't figure out what I can do with it or why it was written, hence the query
[04:06] <akr> the filter results also don't work well, you click one, it's still highlighted so when you click another one you don't get anything, I have to always click All then to the section I want
[04:07] <tr3nton> ki4ro: I guess sometimes you don't know which menu list something lives in, and in that case, may be easier to find via searching..
[04:07] <ki4ro> tr3nton: Think I'll go google it and see what its supposed purpose is...if I find anything interesting I'll let you know
[04:07] <tr3nton> ki4ro: did you read marks intro to it? http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/939
[04:08] <ki4ro> tr3nton: I will now
[04:08] <Balask> have people had a lot of success with PlayOnLinux?
[04:09] <dr_willis> depends on the windows app Balask
[04:10] <Balask> I'm trying COD 4 MW now but I was also hoping to try Steam and Starcraft: Broodwars.  What applications have you had issues with Dr. Willis?
[04:12] <tr3nton> akr: Check out this lens: http://askubuntu.com/a/86476/50523
[04:12] <dr_willis> if i want games i boot to windows. i use wine to run a few utils.
[04:12] <tr3nton> akr: maybe that's what you are after
[04:13] <devslash> I was checking /etc/passwd and there's a user listed called whoopsie which I didn't create.  Does anyone know what that is and if it's safe to delete
[04:13] <ki4ro> tr3nton: Well, thanks to you, I scanned the article and find that, for me, pointing and clicking is a helluva lot easier LOL  Many thnks
[04:14] <kaya> guys need to how does the guest user in ubuntu 11.10 lost ma copied  files after restarting
[04:14] <ki4ro> *thanks
[04:14] <bairui> hi
[04:14] <ghostchick> devslash,  it is an user created by and for the whoopsie daemon( a crash debugging information daemon)
[04:14] <bairui> can someone confirm my messages are getting through to the channel?
[04:15] <ki4ro> bairui: We see you
[04:15] <bairui> thank you
[04:15] <Balask> bairui:  I also see you
[04:15] <devslash> Ghostchick so I take it that I ought a leave it alone
[04:15] <bairui> :)
[04:16] <ghostchick> devslash,  yup
[04:16] <ghostchick> kaya,  where you using the guest account?
[04:16] <bairui> ok, i asked an empathy question earlier and didn't get a response. I notice my client calls the room #ubuntu-unregged and wondered if that was a cryptic way of telling me I lacked regs to talk.
[04:16] <akr> tr3nton: I'm trying to figure out if the Dash can have category/sections like your typical KDE/Gnome menu has, Office, Internet, Multimedia, etc., not looking to have a lens but have this thing categorized and not using the Filters either to find things. Seems really odd  no one ever put everything into sections when you opened it, or like the sections listed at the bottom showing the musical note, home etc, could be created then into the categories to arrange it
[04:18] <bairui> akr: if you click the second button in at the bottom of the dash (Applications) and the top-right hand Filter Results pop-out... is that what you want?
[04:18] <devslash> Ghostchick I've removed the extra mysql users, installed a firewall (shorewall) and use SSH but disabled password authentication and use keys.  Is there anything else I should do to secure my install of ubuntu?
[04:18] <dr_willis> you can add classic gnome menus to unity if you want also.
[04:19] <ghostchick> devslash,  reduce the number of daemons runnning, change the encryption of the root password, block unused ttys(not an expert on security though)
[04:20] <Balask> is there a good active antivirus and firewall to use on Ubuntu?
[04:20] <devslash> Ghostchick I use a fairly complex password for my main account
[04:20] <dr_willis> !firewall
[04:20] <akr> bairui: no and I'll take a screen shot and hack it up and show you and everyone what I've been asking for the last hour that no one seems to get LOL
[04:20] <ghostchick> devslash,  i meant the encryption itself not the password
[04:21]  * akr bangs head
[04:21] <Balask> okay then
[04:21] <tr3nton> akr: do you need the medic?
[04:21] <devslash> I don't think I. Set a root password. Is logging in as root disabled?
[04:21] <akr> maybe soon
[04:21] <akr> LOL
[04:21] <bairui> akr: a picture's worth a thousand headaches, as they say
[04:21] <akr> hang tight, installing gimp
[04:22] <MonkeyDust> !root| devslash
[04:22] <lrh9> Can I setup a multi-boot system without having Windows installed, but have a logical partition in case I want to install it later? All the tutorials expect Windows to be the first logical partition and the boot partion to do chain loading.
[04:23] <MonkeyDust> lrh9  it's because windows ruins GRUB, if you install it after linux
[04:23] <lrh9> Overwrites the MBR?
[04:23] <MonkeyDust> lrh9  you have to repair grub, is what i mean
[04:24] <lrh9> So it's possible.
[04:24] <MonkeyDust> lrh9  technically, maybe, yes
[04:25] <MonkeyDust> but i guess nobody has ever tried what you want to do
[04:25] <lrh9> I could just reinstall everything if I ever want to install Windows.
[04:25] <jhickey> Recently got a R820 from DELL quad socket (8 core) server with 512GB of RAM.  Pretty much a beast.  We were planning on running a vary large DB on the system using Ubuntu as the OS.  12.04 will not load.
[04:26] <jhickey> anyone played with / had issue with R820?
[04:26] <lrh9> MonkeyDust, don't we still have to do some configuration on GRUB?
[04:27] <jhickey> correction 12.04 will LOAD but on first boot the server hangs and will restart
[04:27] <jhickey> after a few reboots it will eventually panic
[04:27] <jhickey> always in a different part of the post process
[04:28] <lrh9> I guess not if we run update-grub...
[04:29] <kaya> 9guys need to how does the guest user in ubuntu 11.10 lost ma copied  files after restarting

[04:36] <InHisName> anyone know how to UNfreeze the Dash Home button on unity?   Nothing happens when I click it. Everything else seems ok.
[04:37] <kingjames90> when i upgrade from 11.04 to 12.04 will there be compatability with stuff I have? Like will all my files and folder still work on new?
[04:38] <jthan> kingjames90: Should - but it's always recommended that you backup your files before upgrading.
[04:38] <zykotick9> kingjames90: fyi you'd need to update twice.  11.04 -> 11.10 then 11.10 -> 12.04 beware...
[04:38] <kingjames90> jthan thanks!
[04:38] <kingjames90> oh i see
[04:39] <jthan> kingjames90: Always a pleasure.  Ask away if you hit any more snags
[04:39] <Alexis15> i have a snag too can you help me
[04:39] <jthan> What snag might that be?
[04:39] <Alexis15> please i promise im not being lazy just im new to linux and the guides dont seem to apply to me
[04:40] <jthan> Ask a question. I'll see what I can do for you.
[04:40] <Alexis15> well, i thought id try linux.. so i installed ubunto 12.04 lts and uninstalled windows 7 from my laptop
[04:40] <jthan> Good choice. Continue.
[04:40] <Alexis15> i got apache2 working.. i can go to local host and see my code.... others cant see it even tho i port fowarded port 80
[04:40] <Alexis15> thats snag 1
[04:40] <Alexis15> then i downloed php5, mysql-server, mysql-navigator, and phpymyadmin
[04:40] <b_> hi
[04:41] <Alexis15> i had to do something with a config to make phpmyadmin work, basicly i had to change hosts to 127.0.1 or something like that i dotn remember exactly
[04:41] <Alexis15> but it works
[04:41] <jthan> Alexis15: So. You'll have to forward ports on your router to your computer, but most times your ISP will block port 80 so you'll have to find another that is open.
[04:41] <Alexis15> but i cant login to phpymyadmin. thats snag 2
[04:41] <b_> goodbye
[04:41] <Alexis15> i fowared port 80
[04:41] <Alexis15> i had to do it for my ps3
[04:41] <akr> ok boys & girls this is what I mean Categories in Dash; --->  http://i.imgur.com/Ta3tH.png
[04:41] <Alexis15> so it was already fowarded
[04:42] <jthan> But if it was forwarded to the IP address of your PS3, people won't be able to reach your computer.
[04:42] <akr> In that screen the Email, Internet, Office, can I make something like that in Dash?
[04:42] <jthan> They'll be able to reach your PS3
[04:42] <Alexis15> isnt my ps3 and computer on the same ip?
[04:43] <jthan> They have the same external IP address, but they have different internal IP addresses assigned by your router.  So, for example, your PS3 might be <IP_ADDRESS> while your server is <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:43] <xscc> o
[04:43] <Alexis15> ill take a look... do you know the ip thing for the router off the top of your head i always forget
[04:43] <Alexis15> <IP_ADDRESS>?
[04:43] <jthan> What kind of router?
[04:43] <jthan> <IP_ADDRESS> is common
[04:43] <Alexis15> wow cnat beleive i remebd
[04:43] <Alexis15> it worked :D
[04:44] <Alexis15> ok
[04:44] <jthan> ;-)
[04:44] <Alexis15> the local ipaddress for port 80 is <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:44] <jthan> Right - so that's your PS3 if you already forwarded it.  On your linux machine type "ifconfig" to find the IP of that box.
[04:44] <jthan> Just make sure you're looking at the right interface.
[04:45] <Alexis15> should i use the cli?
[04:45] <Alexis15> the terminal?
[04:45] <InHisName> akr:  I just type stuff in until the icon shows and then I click it.
[04:45] <jthan> Yes - sorry.
[04:46] <Alexis15> No command 'ipconfig' found, did you mean:
[04:46] <Alexis15>  Command 'tpconfig' from package 'tpconfig' (universe)
[04:46] <Alexis15>  Command 'iwconfig' from package 'wireless-tools' (main)
[04:46] <Alexis15>  Command 'ifconfig' from package 'net-tools' (main)
[04:46] <FloodBot1> Alexis15: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:46] <InHisName> Alexis15: ifconfig
[04:47] <Alexis15> inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[04:47] <Alexis15> ok
[04:47] <Alexis15> so 11?
[04:47] <jthan> Alexis15: Yes - <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:49] <Alexis15> okkk
[04:49] <Alexis15> so now to connect to this website via another computer
[04:49] <Alexis15> i type my ip
[04:49] <Alexis15> the one found on whatsmyip.com
[04:49] <Alexis15> correct?
[04:49] <jthan> Right.
[04:49] <FloodBot1> Alexis15: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:50] <Alexis15> *crosses fingers*
[04:50] <Alexis15> WOW
[04:50] <Alexis15> it works!!!!!
[04:50] <Alexis15> woot
[04:51] <akr> InHisName: you mean you do a search?
[04:51] <barfer> u guys know if i can extract ubuntu install from .iso to an partition and make it start from grub ? (usb and cd wont boot  the install for ubuntu 12.04)
[04:52] <akr> so there's no way to create categories like the screen shot?
[04:52] <jthan> Alexis15: ;-) Just a little experience and you'll be okay
[04:52] <InferiorHuman> can someone tell me why this script won't work on my android phone but it works if I run the command manually? http://dl.xda-developers.com/attachdl/c8484087432cbb9b00074e2e000ea472/4ff51d56/1/0/3/9/5/8/9/07sdspeedfix.txt
[04:52] <InHisName> yes, it is kinda like a search of the icons
[04:52] <jthan> InferiorHuman: Wrong channel to be asking.
[04:52] <InHisName> or of their names
[04:52] <InferiorHuman> jthan, why? its still linux :-P
[04:52] <jthan> But this is #ubuntu.
[04:52] <jthan> not #linux
[04:53] <InferiorHuman> someone can answer me if they wish though.
[04:53] <jthan> Alexis15: On to the next issue?
[04:53] <akr> seems kind of odd since most of use starting out in computing came from systems with Menus that had categories now Unity Dash comes along and now no more categories, really odd and poor design
[04:53] <InHisName> I type "syste" and in the first line of icons is System Monitor.     Like windows task mgr.
[04:53] <Alexis15> yes, if you're not tired of me already lol
[04:53] <Alexis15> i have a feeling this next one is going to be crazy hard
[04:53] <xangua> akr: it has categories
[04:53] <jthan> barfer: Try the alternate install CD?
[04:53] <jthan> Alexis15: Ask and we'll see what we can do.  If nothing else I can probably help you find proper documentation
[04:54] <Alexis15> ok, ill tell you the story of what i did just for clarity...
[04:54] <akr> xangua: not like this it doesn't --- http://i.imgur.com/Ta3tH.png
[04:54] <Alexis15> ill start by saying im kinda a wannabe web developer. i have friends who ive know for about 2 yeras now, and they have taught me php, sql, css, html, and some JS... so i understand phpmyadmin, cpanel, and the basics of creatign a website
[04:55] <jthan> Nothing wrong with that.
[04:55] <tr3nton> akr: why exactly do you want it like that?
[04:56] <barfer> jthan: its like my pc wont start from usb only give me error "Boot error" and goes no futher than that i've tryed the Desktop and mini .iso ,what is different with alternate ?
[04:56] <Alexis15> i downloaded phpmyadmin, and when it asked i gave it my username and password... the problem is i "guess" is it went into a folder that wasn't where it should "i guess", so my friends had me edit the... i THINK it was /etc/drdt.e/hosts   or something like that the drdt.e is clearly wrong
[04:56] <akr> tr3nton: because if you opened Dash, think about it for a few seconds, then it's going to be like your typical menu category layout which is easier to scroll through looking at the sections to find apps based on those sections just like a Gnome or KDE menu...
[04:56] <jthan> I am not entirely sure, to be honest. I just know some machines prefer it.  You are certain your motherboard supports booting from USB?
[04:56] <Alexis15> i edited that file, and added phpmyadmin <IP_ADDRESS> or something like that, so NOW i can go to http://phpmyadmin
[04:56] <Alexis15> and the login promt will come up, and thats where im at. they said i cant login probly becasue of a config error, and then my friend got tired and went to sleep and thas where im kidna stuck
[04:57] <Alexis15> actually it may have been host.conf
[04:57] <Alexis15> that i edited
[04:57] <akr> tr3nton: so can Dash be made to look like that?
[04:57] <Alexis15> what i'd like is to make it where i can go to http//myip/phpmyadmin
[04:58] <jthan> Alexis15: k. Bear with me for a second.
[04:58] <jthan> Alexis15: do you know where your phpmyadmin config file is? Is it in /etc/phpmyadmin?
[04:58] <Alexis15> ill take a look
[04:59] <Alexis15> advance420@test2:~$ ls /etc/phpmyadmin
[04:59] <Alexis15> apache.conf    config.footer.inc.php  config.inc.php  lighttpd.conf       phpmyadmin.service
[04:59] <Alexis15> config-db.php  config.header.inc.php  htpasswd.setup  phpmyadmin.desktop
[04:59] <Alexis15> found it!
[04:59] <jthan> Alexis15: Right. So what I want you to do for me is type "cat config.inc.php" and paste the output at paste.ubuntu.com and then get me the link so I can check it out.  The config.inc.php is just a sample - it does not contain any of your information.
[05:00] <jthan> Alexis15: no. I lied.
[05:00] <jthan> Don't do that.
[05:00] <InferiorHuman> can someone tell me why this script won't work on my android phone but it works if I run the command manually? http://dl.xda-developers.com/attachdl/c8484087432cbb9b00074e2e000ea472/4ff51d56/1/0/3/9/5/8/9/07sdspeedfix.txt
[05:00] <barfer> i installed current ubuntu version with the same usb stick im trying to use now.. allready tryed unetbooin (win and nix) startup Disk creator  and universal something witch was recomended from ubuntu.com ... i have some issue with another box i tryed the usb pen on  but it says boot: vesamenu.c32 :not a com32 image .... there i tryed the live/help trick and replacing the vesamenu file and taking out UI in the syslinux.cfg ... and no
[05:00] <akr> ahhh #7 Unity Bliss;  http://askubuntu.com/questions/38772/what-lenses-for-unity-are-available/86476#86476
[05:00] <barfer> jthan:
[05:00] <barfer> ohh palmface
[05:01] <jthan> barfer: I read :-p
[05:01] <akr> anyone know Unity Bliss and if that's the best one for making it into Categories?
[05:01] <barfer> yeah i just palmfaced couse of noobnes :)
[05:01] <jthan> Alexis15: PM me your config file contents so I can look through it.
[05:02] <Alexis15> hmm
[05:02] <InHisName> akr: don't know that one.  I've never created new categories.
[05:02] <Alexis15> i do /msg jthan and then what iw ant t osay?
[05:03] <barfer> so thats why im sortof giving up on usb and would like to try booting the install from onother partition with grub
[05:03] <InHisName> akr: the only category I used much was the 'everything' category.  I just scrolled down to the first letter and manually searched.   Uggh, typing 4-5 letters faster for me now.
[05:03] <dr_willis> akr:  theres several classic-gnome-menu indicator applets  out for unity. and one to add a classic like menu to the panel. askubuntu.com should hve a list of them
[05:03] <Alexis15> jthan are you there
[05:03] <jthan> Alexis15: Yes - I'm talking in the PM
[05:03] <jthan> :-p
[05:04] <jthan> What irc client are you using?
[05:04] <Alexis15> sorry jthan my brother is calling me pls wait
[05:04] <jthan> I'll be here for awhile yet.
[05:04] <akr> ok guys thanks
[05:05] <jalal> hey i am having problem in custmizer kit
[05:05] <jalal> plzzzz some body help me
[05:06] <johnnycakes> New install of 12.04, everything works great EXCEPT I can't click in the top-right corner of any maximized app... clicks seem to go straight through to the desktop.
[05:06] <jalal> i custmizing ubuntu with cutmizing kit..but in end it said something went wrong ..your filesystem size is big then isofile..plz reduce your size
[05:06] <johnnycakes> the little Close icon is there, but only about the left-most 3 pixels actually respond to a click.. everything else goes down to the desktop (if I right-click on the Close button then the desktop's right-click menu pops up)
[05:07] <dr_willis> jalal:   so i imagine your filesystem cant be bigger then 700mb for a cd, or 4gb for aa dvd.
[05:07] <johnnycakes> Anyone have any experience with that issue?
[05:07] <jalal> i am making a live cd
[05:07] <jalal> so what is solution
[05:07] <jthan> johnnycakes: Not something I have ever heard of or experienced.  Did you check the forums out?
[05:07] <dr_willis> so you added so much stuff its bigger then what will fit on a cd.. remove stuff.
[05:08] <johnnycakes> jthan, yup
[05:08] <jthan> johnnycakes: Alright. Give me a second.
[05:08] <johnnycakes> jthan, making a new account to post on ubuntuforums.org with (since my old account doesn't seem to work anymore)
[05:08] <jthan> Good idea.
[05:08] <jthan> This is a tough one to pinpoint. If possible take screenshots.
[05:09] <jthan> johnnycakes: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+question/193985
[05:10] <jthan> johnnycakes: Go through this testcase and see if it applies please https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/880449
[05:10] <jthan> Though these all say they're fixed.
[05:11] <dr_willis> released dosent mean its in the actual updates yet  - i belive..
[05:11] <johnnycakes> jthan, 193985 seems different than my issue (and is also unresolved hehe) but will check out 880449
[05:11] <jthan> dr_willis: good to know. I haven't worked with LP in a LONG time
[05:12] <johnnycakes> jthan, 880449 is related to the same thing as 193985... thanks for tryin tho :D
[05:12] <jthan> Of course they are related, but did you try the test case? It could be a similar issue.
[05:12] <dr_willis> but i imagine if its been released - it sould be out in a few days. check the date the release was fixed perhaps]
[05:12] <jthan> dr_willis: Just looked for that with little success. Ha.
[05:13] <johnnycakes> jthan, my click-through problem is consistent, with every single window I maximize, regardless of whether anything has been minimized or not
[05:13] <johnnycakes> jthan, also it's only a small square in the top-right corner that covers most of the close button
[05:14] <johnnycakes> jthan, the menu bar (including the close button) work fine, but only the left-most part of the close button is clickable (when not maxed the whole close button works)
[05:15] <croz> Any Conky pros here? Nobody ever chats in #Conky. I'm trying to setup weather.xtsl (or whatever that extension is) and I get some errors.
[05:15] <johnnycakes> jthan, it's like there's a little 10x10px box floating in the top-right corner that's sending all clicks straight through to the desktop
[05:16] <jthan> johnnycakes: Yeah - I understand your description. Just don't know how to search for it anywhere.  You are best to open up a forum post and maybe even file a bug if you can't find a resolution. Make sure to include your hardware specifics.
[05:16] <InHisName> croz:  probably not,  only a dozen or so paying attention.   I'm still waiting for a unity die-hard to help me.
[05:16] <johnnycakes> jthan, yeah that's about the same conclusion I've reached... was hoping it was common enough that an IRC person might recognize it, despite it being a hard thing to google for
[05:17] <johnnycakes> jthan, thanks anyway :)
[05:17] <jthan> johnnycakes: Certainly. Sorry I couldn't do more.
[05:18] <johnnycakes> LOL now I'm trying to recover my password on the Ubuntu Forums... Random question I need to answer: "How many ears do most humans have?" I've tried "2" and "two" and with both it says the answer is incorrect!! rofl!! How many ears do you guys have?!?
[05:19] <jthan> Maybe they think you're deaf.
[05:19] <tr3nton> 3
[05:19] <johnnycakes> deaf people still have two ears
[05:19] <johnnycakes> maybe they think I'm a corn farmer
[05:19] <jthan> Sometimes.
[05:25] <barfer> hehe
[05:26] <InHisName> How do I UNfreeze the Dash Home button on unity?   Nothing happens when I click it. Everything else seems ok.
[05:29] <kaya> xangua, can  retrieve back the files  from the administrator session
[05:29] <daoneunv> !nounity > daoneunv
[05:29] <ceti331> can any of the window-switchers activate desktops (e.g: in windows, alt-tab includes 'show desktop', but in linux it would be great to replace that with an empty virtual desktop)P
[05:34] <bz> mongodb is webscale
[05:35] <bz> i use mongodb because i like webscale

[05:38] <amitprakash> What would be the sanest way to duplicate ubuntu installations across various systems [ I've already set one up and the systems are fairly similar - same proc family and 320-500G hdd ]
[05:38] <bz> dd
[05:40] <amitprakash> bz, dd won't work since hdd sizes vary
[05:41] <StormTrooper> cpio?
[05:41] <_ruben> clonezilla
[05:41] <StormTrooper> ^
[05:41] <bz> amitprakash: your installation is smaller than min(hdd sizes) right?

[05:43] <nassimxmax> i have botnet spyeye and i do use
[05:43] <amitprakash> bz, hmm
[05:43] <bz> amitprakash: i'm assuming you want low-tech-drop-dead-simple
[05:43] <bz> amitprakash: otherwise i'd go with prepackaged sol'ns like 'clonezilla'

[05:46] <GeekAdmin> Hi. How do you upgrade Ubuntu 9.04 to 12.04?  I tried making a usb with startup disk creator but it wont boot.
[05:46] <BlueEagle> !conky
[05:47] <dr_willis> i recall some conky forum posts/threads. but i never use the fancy features of conky.
[05:47] <GeekAdmin> Can I upgrade from 9.04 to 12.04 from the terminal?
[05:47] <dr_willis> GeekAdmin:  with some patience and luck. yes. but a clean install may  be much faster and reliable
[05:47] <BlueEagle> GeekAdmin: Does 9.04 have the dist-upgrade command?
[05:48] <GeekAdmin> dr_willis:  oh so I cant upgrade straight to 12.04? I'd have to upgrade each version?
[05:48] <dr_willis> !9.04
[05:48] <dr_willis> GeekAdmin:  staight... No...
[05:48] <dr_willis> have to get to a LTS release then go lts to lts
[05:48] <GeekAdmin> dr_willis:  okay thanks
[05:48] <dr_willis> and hope it wworks. ;)
[05:49] <amitprakash> bz, I am going with clonezilla atm
[05:49] <amitprakash> bz, lowtech while interesting is going to be a pita for over 100 systems
[05:49] <jamf> GeekAdmin: a good practice would be, if you're planning fresh install of 12.04
[05:49] <GeekAdmin> jamf:  Will find a CD thanks.
[05:49] <jamf> create differents partition for /home and /lib
[05:50] <jhesketh_> Hi There. I'm just wondering - when on a live-cd - how lightdm knows not to start the unity session until ubiquity is closed?
[05:57] <kaya> guys need to how does the guest user in ubuntu 11.10 lost ma copied  files after restarting
[05:58] <V3NG3NC3678> Kaya was that engish?
[05:58] <spik3> Hi! can you help? upgraded ubuntu 12.04 and now I can not shut down, all the machine does is go to login page any help will do
[05:59] <zykotick9> spik3: try "sudo shutdown -h now" in a terminal
[06:00] <kaya> V3NG3NC3678, english is my mother language  am soory for that V3NG3NC3678
[06:00] <spik3> zykotick9:  tried that goes to login page?
[06:00] <kaya> V3NG3NC3678,  but am tried
[06:00] <zykotick9> spik3: wow is all i can say.  sorry, no suggestions. good luck.
[06:00] <hsunda3> spik3, what does "sudo poweroff" do? Same thing?
[06:01] <shawnboy> how can i convert to M4V video. ffmpeg gives error. avidemux & handbrake dont support m4v.
[06:01] <zykotick9> shawnboy: handbrake does m4v
[06:01] <spik3> thanks zykotick9: hsunda3 will try that get back soon
[06:01] <hsunda3> shawnboy, I am guessing you are probably missing a codec or two
[06:01] <bazhang> shawnboy, handbrake does so support it
[06:01] <kaya> V3NG3NC3678,  would u help me for that case
[06:02] <shawnboy> i'll take another look...
[06:02] <bazhang> shawnboy, where did you install handbrake from
[06:02] <erol> hi, is serial port support enable in latest ubuntu ? cause when i try to connect on /dev/ttyS0 it says /dev/ttyS0 is not a terminal device !
[06:03] <erol> i want to connect to bochs
[06:03] <BlueEagle> erol: If you look up /dev/ttys0, what does the node look like?
[06:03] <zykotick9> shawnboy: handbrake is probably your best bet for mp4/m4v.  the packages if default ubuntu repo can't use AAC codec for legal reasons - so ffmpeg/?avconf don't support mp4/m4v by default
[06:04] <shawnboy> bazhang, been so long i dont remember. i only see mp4 or mkv
[06:04] <erol> setserial -g /dev/ttyS0 answer /dev/ttyS0, UART: unknown, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
[06:04] <bazhang> zykotick9, its only in a PPA afaik
[06:04] <zykotick9> bazhang: true
[06:04] <spik3> hsunda3: are you there ? sudo poweroff works
[06:04] <bazhang> !info handbrake
[06:04] <BlueEagle> erol: and are you a member of the dialout gruop?
[06:04] <shawnboy> bazhang, probably just apt-get
[06:04] <zykotick9> shawnboy: mp4 = m4v
[06:04] <kaya> V3NG3NC3678,  would u help me for that case
[06:04] <erol> mmh
[06:04] <hsunda3> spik3, ok :)
[06:04] <erol> maybe not :)
[06:05] <hsunda3> spik3, I believe in the latest Ubuntu they changed the way shutdown / halt works .. it doesn't actually "poweroff" which only "poweroff" does now
[06:05] <bazhang> shawnboy, no, its a PPA you would need to explicitly add
[06:05] <shawnboy> so i simply chang ext from mp4 to m4v and it's web M4V compatibleK
[06:06] <spik3> How can I fix shut down to shut down  hsunda3
[06:06] <zykotick9> shawnboy: in handbrake if you select mp4 it's gonna save it as an foo.m4v file
[06:06] <hsunda3> spik3, that I am not qualified to answer .. are you running Unity? The GUI way to shut down should automatically power off too, doesn't it?
[06:07] <kaya> V3NG3NC3678,
[06:08] <shawnboy> zykotick9, seems i remember it doimg that when i expected mp4. thanks for reminder
[06:08] <spik3> hsunda3: if you mean I go up to theshut down button and click shut down and all we go to is the login page
[06:09] <hsunda3> spik3, that shouldn't be happening. I am guessing it is happening because you upgraded, as opposed to a clean install. I guess you could file a bug? For now your best option is probably "sudo poweroff" via a terminal till someone offers a better suggestion
[06:10] <spik3> hsunda3: thanks for that I will keep asking around thank for your help
[06:18] <aristidesfl> shouldn't my home directory be restricted by default to other users? drwxr-xr-x 34 user user 4096 Jul  5 04:31 user
[06:19] <dr_willis> aristidesfl:  not by default that ive noticed
[06:20] <aristidesfl> dr_willis interesting......
[06:20] <dr_willis> lightdm/gdm and other dms can read some files from your users homes
[06:20] <dr_willis> for login icons and other things
[06:22] <aristidesfl> dr_willis so I can just read other users files?
[06:22] <dr_willis> never noticed. try it and see
[06:22] <hsunda3> aristidesfl, I believe you can "see" what files other users have, but unless the file itself is readable you can't read the contents of the file
[06:23] <aristidesfl> hsunda3 I've just created a new file, and it has read permissions to everyone -rw-rw-r--  1 user user    0 Jul  5 07:16 peca
[06:23] <dr_willis> sounds about right
[06:24] <hsunda3> yeah that file would be universally readable
[06:24] <aristidesfl> :/
[06:24] <dr_willis> unless a direcory bove it as not accessable.
[06:25] <dr_willis> of course if you encrypt your home...
[06:25] <ceti331> does the gcc ecosystem have tools for profiling and getting callgraphs
[06:26] <ceti331> (runtime callgraphs)
[06:26] <hsunda3> aristidesfl, I believe /etc/profile has a umask 022 which sets those permissions. If I understand you correctly, you want a umask of 077 instead
[06:26] <ewerton> Hello, what the better messenger to Linux?
[06:27] <ceti331> oops wrong channel
[06:27] <aristidesfl> hsunda3 actually is 0002
[06:27] <dr_willis> ewerton:  huh?
[06:27] <hsunda3> aristidesfl, what? 0002 seems weird
[06:27] <aristidesfl> that's what umask command says
[06:27] <Henoxek> ewerton, emacs
[06:27] <ewerton> the better: empathy? pidgin? emesene?
[06:27] <hsunda3> aristidesfl, the output of your "umask" on the command prompt is 0002?
[06:28] <aristidesfl> hsunda3 eys
[06:29] <hsunda3> oh yeah that makes sense, your default file permissions are -rw-rw-r-- ... but basically yeah you get the picture, the umask sets the default permissions
[06:29] <dr_willis> ewerton:  try them all. decide for yourself
[06:29] <aristidesfl> hsunda3 You can setup umask in /etc/bashrc or /etc/profile file for all users. By default most Linux distro set it to 0022 (022) or 0002 (002). Open /etc/profile or ~/.bashrc file, enter:
[06:29] <ewerton> ... ok...
[06:29] <ewerton> thks
[06:29] <hsunda3> aristidesfl, yeah that's what I was telling you earlier :P
[06:30] <aristidesfl> but I sell don't understand what is the 1st zero for
[06:30] <dr_willis> thats for the  special bit isent it? I recall reading  about it once.
[06:30] <hsunda3> Just means it is octal
[06:30] <ghostconn> how would i add a .gif image as a background? im using ubuntu 12.04
[06:31] <hsunda3> aristidesfl, dr_willis the leading 0 means octal
[06:31] <dr_willis> 0ctal vs octal ;)
[06:32] <aristidesfl> would it be hard to infer? do we really need a zero? really?
[06:32] <dr_willis> yes
[06:32] <dr_willis> ;)
[06:33] <aristidesfl> -.-
[06:33] <dr_willis> given how many of these commands and  syntaxs have been in use for ages..  and may in fact be posix standards.
[06:34] <dr_willis> !permissions
[06:35] <Jon--_> Every once in a while sound stops working on my laptop completely until I reboot the system. Ubuntu 12.04. I've tried 'puleaudio -k' from terminal, no avail. alsamixer has lines set properly, no audio config or settings change, just suddenly mute. Help?
[06:38] <ghostconn> how would i add a .gif image as a background? im using ubuntu 12.04
[06:38] <aum__> hello everyone is there is any channel to talk about installing ubuntu on mobile phones (arm processor).
[06:38] <sina2> hey, I live in Iran and I cuz of censorship have to use SOX proxies or vpn, but most vpn are in pbk type. so how can I use it in ubuntu?
[06:39] <gela> ubuntu 12.04- i have a logitech G15 keyboard doesn't shut down -case fans stay running also-any ideas ?
[06:39] <Alfafa> Hey. Anyone got problems with maildrop between yesterday and today?
[06:39] <dr_willis> gela:  G15 keybord works fine on my desktop pc. No shutddown issues.
[06:39] <Ben64> my realtek 8168 card doesn't show up in 12.04 64 bit after upgrade from 10.04
[06:39] <BlueEagle> gela: Do you have a powered USB-hub?
[06:39] <gela> no
[06:40] <Alfafa> The only updates I see is gnutls related, and it doesn't seem that maildrop is linked with that?
[06:40] <BlueEagle> !prefix | gela
[06:40] <dr_willis> gela:  you mean the pc dosentg shut down? or the keybord dosent turn off its lights?
[06:40] <gela> lights stay on
[06:41] <hsunda3> gela how did you try the shutdown? Did you use a command via the terminal or did you use the GUI?
[06:41] <BlueEagle> gela: ...or the hidden option #3; There is a button on the keyboard that shuts down the computer in windows, but does not do the same in Ubuntu.
[06:41] <dr_willis> gela:  some pcs have always powerd on USB ports. normally just a few poorts on a pc have that feature.
[06:41] <daniel110> Hi i just installed ubuntu. I have a dedicated graphic card ATI radeon 6770m. I would like to turn it off because it is causing me a lot of heating. What should i do?
[06:41] <BlueEagle> !prefix > gela
[06:41] <dr_willis> gela:  try a differnt port. I use those always-on ports to charge my cellphone  even if the pc  is off
[06:41] <gela> thanks
[06:41] <ghostconn> turn up the gpu fan speed to cool it down
[06:42] <ghostconn> use aticonfig
[06:42] <Ben64> my realtek 8168 card doesn't show up in 12.04 64 bit after upgrade from 10.04, even after downloading, compiling, and installing the r8168 kernel module, what gives? how can i make network work?
[06:43] <ruconse> #ubuntu, hi I have a question about the "physical id" of /proc/cpuinfo, I can't find this value in the AMD CPU :(, does it mean the server only have one physical cpu?
[06:43] <BlueEagle> Ben64: is the module loaded and showing up with lsmod?
[06:44] <Ben64> BlueEagle: yes
[06:44] <ruconse> it shows "processor	: 47
[06:44] <BlueEagle> Ben64: ...but th enetwork card is not shown in ifconfig?
[06:44] <Ben64> BlueEagle: that is correct
[06:45] <hsunda3> ruconse can you put the output of /proc/cpuinfo somewhere on pastebin or something and enter in the link here?
[06:46] <ruconse> hsunda3: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1075982/
[06:46] <daniel110> how can i check if the dedicated graphic card is running?
[06:47] <BlueEagle> Ben64: Do you find it in /sys/module/ directory?
[06:48] <hsunda3> ruconse, damn the output actually shows 46 processing units
[06:49] <nandonachi> where can i find the inittab file?
[06:49] <Ben64> BlueEagle: i'm not sure... i'm on a livecd right now to be able to IRC. this cd is using r8169 module and seems to be working. my installed version has r8169 but it did not work either
[06:50] <daniel110> so i new to ubuntu, i saw in a video that someone changed their app through a small dock in the center of the screen. How can i do that?
[06:50] <euphoria> I love ubuntu
[06:50] <ruconse> hsunda3: I want to know how many physical CPU the server has :(
[06:50] <euphoria> Just made the switch to linux
[06:50] <BlueEagle> Ben64: Well it has been my experience that a workign livecd vs a broken installation = misconfiguration. If you mount the filesystem check the module blacklist.
[06:51] <ruconse> hsunda3: is there any way to clarify it?
[06:51] <nandonachi> where can i find the inittab file
[06:51] <nandonachi> ?
[06:51] <dr_willis> theresd not one by default i belive
[06:51] <dr_willis> !runlevel
[06:51] <Ben64> BlueEagle: except this cd is 32 bit, and my install is 64. what configuration would make my network not work, and how can i remove it all?
[06:52] <nandonachi> @ubottu so where can i find the equivalent Upstart files?
[06:52] <ghostchick> nandonachi, /etc/init.d
[06:52] <dr_willis> !upstart
[06:52] <dr_willis>  /etc/init
[06:52] <BlueEagle> Ben64: First I would check the module blacklist
[06:52] <dr_willis> nandonachi:  what are you trying to do exaxtly?
[06:53] <ghostchick> nandonachi, and ubottu is lovely but a bot  i have heard xD
[06:53] <Ben64> BlueEagle: not in blacklist
[06:54] <nandonachi> @dr_willis i just want to open and analyze the inittab file for research purposes. but now i have found that it no longer exsists
[06:54] <dibblego> is it possible for an updated 10.10 system to have a flash browser plugin that doesn't consistently crash?
[06:54] <nandonachi> how can a bot me so intelligent and pick up what i am saying? is this the new future?!!
[06:54] <nandonachi> :O
[06:54] <mobyte> Could anyone give assistance in helping me install java? I'm really bad at using the terminal.
[06:54] <dr_willis> nandonachi:  that makes your research a lot easier
[06:54] <dr_willis> !bot
[06:54] <dr_willis> nandonachi:  notice people using !triggers ?
[06:55] <hsunda3> ruconse, try installing dmidecode and doing "sudo dmidecode -t processor" ? I am still working on trying to identify number of physical processors .. see if that makes sense?
[06:55] <lion> any body cant tell me how to instal relinux?
[06:55] <dr_willis> lion:  and whats relinux /
[06:55] <mobyte> lion: You mean linux?
[06:55] <nandonachi> @ghostchick i need to see the runlevels. init.d does not provide that
[06:55] <lion> relinux is tool which tell you custmize linux
[06:56] <dr_willis> nandonachi:  ubuntu dosent really use runlevels like other distros do.
[06:56] <lion> i having problem in compling
[06:56] <mobyte> lion: Can't say I've heard of it...
[06:56] <lion> https://launchpad.net/relinux
[06:56] <nandonachi> @dr_willis interesting...
[06:56] <lion> chek here
[06:56] <dr_willis> no need to use @whoever on irc.. this is not twitter. ;)
[06:56] <mobyte> lion: Ubuntu Tweak works fine if you need to make changes to Unity. It's available in the Ubuntu Software Center.
[06:57] <lion> ok listen one more thing,i had used custmize kit for re cunstruct ubuntu
[06:57] <ghostchick> nandonachi,  there is some guis for upstart and former initabs lvls
[06:57] <nandonachi> dr_willis: is this the correct syntax?
[06:57] <lion> but in end it give me error,something went wrong,your filesystem is big then your iso file
[06:57] <dr_willis> !tab
[06:57] <lion> how to solve this?
[06:57] <nandonachi> ghostchick: i went through their documentation and couldnt find it...can u please point me to a more specific link?
[06:57] <dr_willis> lion:  remove things so the iso is smaller.
[06:58] <nandonachi> dr_willis: :O
[06:58] <lion> i am using ubuntu 12.04 iso
[06:58] <lion> i have rmeoved everything
[06:58] <lion> but still getting error :9
[06:58] <BlueEagle> lion: What then, exactly, is not working? Which error are you receiving? I appear to have missed the exact error message.
[06:58] <ghostchick> nandonachi,  a min   i would get you the links
[06:58] <BlueEagle> !enter | lion
[06:59] <daniel110> how do i check if the dedicated graphics is running?
[06:59] <daniel110> anyone?
[06:59] <lion> i got error this >> something went wrong..yout filesystem is bigger then isofile,,please try to reduce
[06:59] <nandonachi> dr_willis: nice, but #dr_willis and @dr_willis looks fine too you know! :P
[06:59] <gogli> BlueEagle  : What is the difference between Services and Process
[07:00] <dr_willis> nandonachi:  @ on irc means the person is an OP. and # on irc starts a Channel Name...
[07:00] <BlueEagle> gogli: Why are you asking me that?
[07:00] <lion> plzzzz helppppppppppppppp
[07:00] <mobyte> lion: I don't think that will get you any help...
[07:00] <dr_willis> lion:  thats one way to get ignored...
[07:00] <gogli> BlueEagle : i'm very confuse in thsi words
[07:00] <BlueEagle> gogli: In Linux the services are called deamons. All deamons have (at least) one process, but other applications also have (at least) one process.
[07:01] <lion> but my iso not creating
[07:01] <nandonachi> dr_willis: ok! thanks a lot...but can you please tel me more about how ubuntu functions then...if it does not use the concept of run levels, it must use some similar mechanism?!
[07:01] <mobyte> lion: What are you trying to do?
[07:01] <Ben64> BlueEagle: any other suggestions for me? i'm about to restart into the installed 12.04. ben64__ is me on my cell phone
[07:01] <dr_willis> lion:  so? we understand you have issues with that app.. but if no one knows.. no one knows..
[07:01] <BlueEagle> lion: The error message sais that the file system is bigger than the iso file. You need to determine the size of the file system and reduce the size of the file system to fit on the ISO-file.
[07:01] <lion> i am try to build my costem ubuntu with my own tool
[07:02] <dr_willis> many remasterint tools  have issues with 12.04   check the apps forums and support channels
[07:02] <BlueEagle> Ben64: Sorry. The blacklist was my best bet. Next step is a clean install and if that doesnt work !bugs
[07:02] <gogli> BlueEgle : can't get it .I know demon is a Services but i want to know thw basic difference between services and process
[07:02] <Ben64> BlueEagle: clean install isn't a solution :|
[07:02] <BlueEagle> !tab | gogli
[07:02] <lion> ok then..if i used ubuntu minix then how to add gnu in it?
[07:02] <lion> i mean GUI
[07:02] <BlueEagle> Ben64: If it fixes the issue then, to me, it is a solution. ;)
[07:03] <dr_willis> lion:  use the package manager tools to insgtall what you want
[07:03] <dr_willis> !apt | lion
[07:03] <Ben64> BlueEagle: the same way that buying a new car is a solution to changing your oil
[07:03] <lion> ubuntu minix doesnot give gui it give only COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
[07:03] <dr_willis> lion: .. yes... use the apt tools like the bot said..
[07:03] <gogli> BlueEagle: can you explain me clearly
[07:03] <lion> yah but in ubuntu minix how to get x server or gui
[07:04] <lion> because there only cli
[07:04] <BlueEagle> gogli: That was the clear explination.
[07:04] <mobyte> lion: Please type the name of the person you are responding to. It is difficult to pay attention to the client at all times.
[07:04] <dr_willis> lion:  you instll them.... using  the apt tools....' apt-get '
[07:04] <dr_willis> and its ubuntu minimal,   minix is a totally differnt OS.
[07:04] <gogli> BlueEagle:ok ! , dr_willis  : can you tell me the basic difference between services and process
[07:05] <BlueEagle> gogli: If you need any clearifications you need to specify what needs to be clarified. Are you having issues understanding the fact that services are called daemons or that daemons and other applications all have one or more processes associated with them?
[07:05] <lion> hey comon..you only confusing me..i rebuilt my system that fine..i will install with apt-get that also fine..but no gui..how to get GUI IN UBUNTU MINIX
[07:05] <dr_willis> gogli:  thats like the differance btween a house and electrical wires...
[07:05] <gogli> dr_willis: thanks
[07:05] <dr_willis> gogli:  services run services....  process is what a running app is. Go check wiki pedia.
[07:06] <wylde> lion: for one thing that's not in the ubuntu repos, so it's not supported here.  The filesystem you want to write to the iso is too big. You have to remove some data/applications/etc. to reduce the size.
[07:06] <ixolit> is it possible to know when php 5.4 will be available in ubunt repos ?
[07:06] <RKyle> Hi, I have a Broadcom divice that seems to be having network authentication issues. Someone mentioned that it could be my wpa_supplicant not working because it had worked previously so I know my card supports it. Any help is appreciated.
[07:06] <lion> ok how to remove all?
[07:06] <lion> it will take time if i will go for remive single application
[07:06] <ruconse> hsunda3: yeah, the dmidecode works just don't know 'Core Count' and 'Thread Count' :)
[07:06] <dr_willis> lion:  why are you doing all this weird stuff anyway?
[07:07] <lion> i am doing this stuff..i can learn much linux...more problem more learning
[07:07] <ben64__> so... what where would stop my network card from showing up in ifconfig when the driver is most definately loaded?
[07:07] <dr_willis> lion:  i think you need to do more reading of linux fundamentals..
[07:07] <hsunda3> ruconse, are they the same? Are they different? Could you elaborate what you see and how you are interpreting what you see?
[07:07] <lion> i am RHCE CIRTIFIED
[07:07] <wylde> lion: your approach ideally would have been to start with a minimal install and only add what you needed,   then make the iso.
[07:08] <krababbel> ben64__: wrong interfaces file?
[07:08] <hsunda3> ruconse, another option would be -> lshw -C processor (Sorry, just trying out things I know)
[07:08] <lion> YESS I AM GOING TO USE ubuntu minix..which come with minimum packages..but in ubuntu minix how to get gui?
[07:08] <ruconse> hsunda3: they're the same, showing Core Count: 12 Thread Count: 12
[07:08] <ben64__> also, i am unable to log in. the login screen pops right back up
[07:09] <ruconse> hsunda3: and I have another Intel machine shows different values
[07:09] <dr_willis> lion:  its 'minimal' not Minix. and you use apt-get to install what desktop you want. kde, gnome, or whatever.. use apt-cache search to determine package namnes
[07:09] <hsunda3> ruconse, with an Intel machine hyper threading might come into picture too
[07:09] <ruconse> hsunda3: yeah, that's what I'm wondering
[07:10] <ruconse> hsunda3:  Core Count: 4
[07:10] <lion> apt-get install gnome will get gui interface in minix?
[07:10] <ruconse> hsunda3:  thread count: 8
[07:10] <ruconse> hsunda3: does it mean this physical socket has 4 cores and 8 threads?
[07:10] <dr_willis> lion:  minix is not linux....
[07:10] <lion> Ubuntu minix?
[07:10] <gogli> BlueEagle  , dr_willis  : Process is instance of a running application and Service is process which run in background and assist others Process .................Is this right ?
[07:10] <wylde> lion: apt-cache search blahblah
[07:11] <dr_willis> lion:  no such thing.. time to start useing the proper words...
[07:11] <hsunda3> ruconse, yeah my first quess would be a "quad core processor" with hyper threading enabled, thereby appearing as 8 logical processor units
[07:11] <BlueEagle> gogli: Not necessarily.
[07:11] <lion> any small linux which i can use for making custom os?with minimum packages?
[07:11] <gogli> BlueEagle: can you correct above statement ?
[07:11] <wylde> !ot | lion
[07:11] <dr_willis> lion:  tons of minimal disrtos out there.. check out Tiny Core Linux.
[07:11] <hsunda3> ruconse, anything interesting in the output of "sudo lshw -C processor" ?
[07:11] <BlueEagle> gogli: Wait, do you mean service as in web service or ftp service and such?
[07:12] <ruconse> hsunda3: so the Intel machine has 8 processors in /proc/cpuinfo?
[07:12] <lion> okies..it comes with gui?
[07:12] <gogli> BlueEagle : yup ! like apache , mysql etc
[07:12] <hsunda3> ruconse, yes the intel machine should show 8 processors in /proc/cpuinfo .. as in you should see upto "processor: 7" in there
[07:12] <dr_willis> lion:  Most all disrtos can insgtall  X and have a gui..  check its homepage.. yes  it does.
[07:12] <lion> ok so i will use this for making my custom os
[07:13] <ruconse> hsunda3: yeah, it makes sense :)
[07:13] <BlueEagle> gogli: Any and all applications that run in linux has got one or more processes connected to it. A daemon is an application that runs in the background. A service is one or a collection of deamons that interface with the outside world. So as dr_willis said; processes are the wiring and plumbing while a service is a house.
[07:13] <hsunda3> ruconse, but the AMD one is still bugging me thoug
[07:13] <dr_willis> and Ogres are Like onions...
[07:14] <ruconse> hsunda3: the AMD doesn't support hyper-threading, and it has 4 physical socket:
[07:14] <ruconse> Socket Designation: CPU1 to CPU4
[07:14] <hsunda3> ruconse, understandable .. just that I would expect the processor count to be a power of 4 ... "46" just seems randomly out of nowhere
[07:14] <lion> dr willi thanks for info brother
[07:15] <BlueEagle> gogli: Typically a web server has got an apache deamon running which has got several processes running. Also some php, python or perl processes may be spawned by the apache daemon to serve some content.
[07:15] <ruconse> hsunda3: the AMD has 48 logical units :)
[07:15] <daoneunv> aircrack-ng
[07:15] <ruconse> processor 0 - 47
[07:15] <hsunda3> ruconse, duh of course you are right
[07:15] <ruconse> hsunda3: lol
[07:15] <gogli> BlueEagle: Thanks ! i got it
[07:16] <hsunda3> ruconse, yeah .. that would mean each "socket" has 12 logical units right?
[07:16] <gogli> BlueEagle :  i think  i'm very stupid : )
[07:17] <RKyle> hi, my laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 will not authenticate wit my WPA personal 2 network. I know my broadcom wireless card supports it because it has worked previously.
[07:17] <BlueEagle> !details | RKyle
[07:18] <BlueEagle> RKyle: You're missing the 2nd to last.
[07:19] <RKyle> BlueEagle, Well when I try to connect to my network it tries to, then asks for my password for the network, then repeats.
[07:19] <gogli> BlueEagle : Is proxy have some life . Suppose i use some  proxy server in network proxy of ubuntu  .Will it work for me 1 month ?
[07:20] <unkrr> hey i m unable to download torrents as the firewall is blocking it  can anyone tell me how can i download the torrentz in ubuntu ?? may via tor or something ??
[07:20] <hsunda3> ruconse, my guess is .. given that it is a Opteron 6238 (which is 16 cores) ... there are a total of 3 "physical CPUs" and if your machine has 4 physical sockets, one of them is empty
[07:22] <lion> doesnot solving prbolem yet..plz some one tell me how to get gui in UBUNTU MINIMAL
[07:22] <lion> http://www.ubuntu-mini-remix.org/
[07:22] <lion> I WANT TO ADD GUI IN THIS

[07:23] <ghostchick> lion, sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop lol
[07:23] <lion> thiis doesnot solve my problem
[07:24] <lion> gui not coming ..only cli..
[07:24] <asfdas> i have problems with Zydas USB wifi
[07:24] <ghostchick> you mean you did installed a gnome desktop and you are still on cli mode?
[07:24] <k1l> lion: why not taking the official ubuntu minimal installation?
[07:24] <nandonachi> !boi=t
[07:24] <nandonachi> !bot
[07:24] <nandonachi> wohoo!
[07:24] <BlueEagle> gogli: The question is too ambiguous and vague to be answered.
[07:24] <lion> i am taking offical
[07:25] <asfdas> itg suffers of overheating and low signal on ubuntu
[07:25] <lion> i am reconstructing this with gui
[07:25] <RKyle> @lart nandonachi ?
[07:25] <k1l> lion: no, that what you use is a spin-off. noone here knows what the deleted etc.
[07:25] <wylde> lion:  All support is provided on the Ubuntu Mini Remix launchpad page <-----
[07:26] <asfdas> chipset is Zydas ZD1211 any ideas?
[07:26] <lion> so you basically dont knows that how to install gui in cli based os?
[07:26] <k1l> lion: on an official ubuntu you just need to install ubuntu-desktop and you will get a gui
[07:26] <lion> wondring!!!!!!
[07:26] <wabbe> hi
[07:26] <wylde> lion: you've been told
[07:26] <gogli> BlueEagle : can i configure network proxy such that i can be anonymous on web (i want to try anonymous for study point of view)
[07:27] <k1l> lion: we dont know what they changed that the official way doesnt work. ask the remix guys!
[07:27] <asfdas> another question
[07:27] <wabbe> I used  fdisk to rescue a broken partition now all files    are in lost+found i just  need to get my ecrypted home dirs from it, how i  do?
[07:27] <asfdas> how can i remove adhoc mode of a hotspot created with networkmanager?
[07:28] <ranveer5289> lion:  I have never installed a minimal distro but I believe what you are looking for is this http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal
[07:28] <lion> arey ranveer bhai solve karo mera problem
[07:29] <fidel> lion: language? ;)
[07:29] <BlueEagle> gogli: If the proxy server is running from your house and you are the only one using the proxy you will no longer be anonymouse as you will be identifiable through the proxy.
[07:29] <lion> Hindi
[07:29] <fidel> !en
[07:29] <fidel> ;)
[07:29] <lion> ranveer is indian

[07:30] <lion> i am visit to this irc from last 2 days like a ghost
[07:30] <gogli> gogli : is that so ...I'm a chinese
[07:30] <BlueEagle> gogli: Also if the proxy server is running on the same machine that you are sufring from that will moot the point of it completely.
[07:31] <ranveer5289> lion:  yes, please don't go off-topic
[07:31] <lion> neighbour
[07:31] <asfdas> hi?
[07:31] <lion> yah yah..i am cureently re build my linux with ubuntu mini
[07:31] <gogli> BlueEagle:   : will moot the point of it completely.   : ?
[07:31] <lion> but dont know how to get gui in ubuntu mini
[07:31] <ranveer5289> lion:  follow the link I gave you
[07:31] <BlueEagle> gogli: It will. Use your dictionary if in doubt.

[07:32] <Calcs88> I need to upgrade gdb debugger. Why is there no ugrade button in software center in ubuntu, there is just remove?
[07:32] <wylde> !mini
[07:32] <Calcs88> I don't know how to upgrade gdb
[07:32] <ranveer5289> lion:  http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal
[07:33] <k1l> lion: you are using a changed ubuntu. its no official ubuntu
[07:33] <jankud> Hi, I connected my desktop PC to my laptop via cable. The laptop gets the internet via Wi-Fi. Now I want to forward some ports to my desktop. I know I have to use iptables (maybe there is a simpler tool for this?), but with not much luck.
[07:33] <lion> ok i will give tru on what ranveer saying
[07:33] <BlueEagle> jankud: I use shorewall for my firewall/routing needs. Perhaps that will work for you?
[07:33] <k1l> lion: look what the bot just said
[07:34] <jankud> BlueEagle: I will definately check this, thank you.
[07:34] <asfdas> how can i remove adhoc mode of a hotspot created with networkmanager?
[07:34] <gogli> BlueEagle : is there any way to be anonymous without using tor
[07:34] <lion> ok gota go if doesnot got solution will come here back as ghost
[07:34] <lion> going to try ranveer method
[07:34] <lion> baba bya
[07:34] <ranveer5289> lion:  If you are good in reading documentation you can also try arch
[07:35] <BlueEagle> jankud: What you want is the two-interface setup. After installing shorewall it will be in /usr/share/doc/shorewall/examples/two-interfaces/ directory. You will need to change the interfaces file and the rules file and you should be good to go.
[07:36] <BlueEagle> gogli: What you need to be anonymous is a proxy server that encrypts the data between it and you and you need multiple people to connect through that proxy server.
[07:37] <BlueEagle> gogli: I would not recommend googling for free proxy and use any of those results because all data you send to the proxy may be intercepted by the people running the proxy server.
[07:37] <BlueEagle> gogli: In any case this is way !ot
[07:37] <gogli> !ot
[07:38] <gogli> BlueEagle : is there any other way to be anonymous except proxy server and tor
[07:39] <wabbe> can testdisk recover specific directories
[07:39] <wabbe> ?
[07:39] <Henoxek> gogli yes, openvpn
[07:40] <BlueEagle> gogli: Well you could use tcp/pigeon I guess: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1149.txt
[07:42] <asfdas> hi
[07:45] <Syria> How can I copy a file using the terminal? copy it from folder to another one? I did not understand how to use the command cp
[07:46] <BlueEagle> Syria: the command cp takes two arguments. The first is the source file name and path and the second is the destination path which may include a new file name.
[07:46] <stty> hi there, i installed google-chrome-stable from the google repos. if i want to start google-chrome in the terminal nothing happens (no error or similar things). version is 20.0.1132.47-r1
[07:46] <dr_willis> Syria:  cp /path/to/file /other/path/to/file
[07:46] <ranveer5289> Syria:  cp -v /home/user/file.txt  /home/user/newfolder
[07:48] <BlueEagle> Syria: For the complete manual on cp please enter in a terminal: man cp
[07:48] <Syria> BlueEagle:  dr_willis  ranveer5289  Thank you very much guys, It worked.
[07:49] <Syria> BlueEagle:  I was reading the cp command information from this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal/
[07:49] <BlueEagle> !man
[07:50] <dr_willis> so what did they say differntly? :) not like cp is a complex command
[07:50] <ranveer5289> Syria:  man pages are your best friend
[07:50] <Syria> ranveer5289:  I will remember that, Never used them before.
[07:50] <dr_willis> Syria:  and rember   command --help    most commands have some help info via --help
[07:52] <asfdas> hi?
[07:52] <asfdas> Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :     invalid argument "adhoc".
[07:54] <tuff> yes asfdas
[07:54] <asfdas> okay
[07:54] <asfdas> I want to remove adhoc from AP
[07:55] <asfdas> but if i put "none" on interfaces file i get invalid argument
[07:58] <Yoshi2889> Hey guys, is there a fully working equalizer for Ubuntu 12.04?
[07:59] <Yoshi2889> pulseaudio-equalizer works weird for me
[07:59] <amitprakash> Hi.. I am using clonezilla to replicate ubuntu installation on multiple systems. How can I ask clonezilla to destroy the partition structure on the target system and to replace it w/ image partition structure?Specifically, my systems are set up in the format 20G - root , 100 G - home, 2xram - swap, rest - /data .. I'd like for clonezilla to automatically create this parition scheme and restore root and home if possible
[07:59] <rax-> can I use apt-mirror to mirror multiple releases?
[07:59] <rax-> basically the same as using rync for an entire mirror but for select releases?
[07:59] <Cop> What's a vmware equivalent for ubuntu?
[07:59] <pingcasts> Cop: virtualbox
[07:59] <LjL> Cop: virtualbox
[07:59] <Yoshi2889> Cop: Virtualbox
[07:59] <Yoshi2889> LOL
[07:59] <LjL> heh
[07:59] <pingcasts> lol
[07:59] <Cop> Looks like imma go with that lol
[07:59] <pingcasts> that's the one we can answer:p
[08:00] <Yoshi2889> But is there an alternative for pulseaudio-equalizer?
[08:00] <Yoshi2889> It works crap on my system, it think I have multiple speakers afterwards
[08:00] <Cop> Hmm can't apt-get it :[
[08:00] <Cop> Life is so unfair!
[08:00] <Yoshi2889> Cop: Look in Software Centre
[08:00] <pingcasts> Cop: virtualbox.org
[08:00] <Yoshi2889> That, too
[08:00] <pingcasts> if you can't find it in the software center
[08:01] <pingcasts> I recommend trying the software center first
[08:01] <asfdas> Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :     invalid argument "None".
[08:01] <Yoshi2889> pingcasts: The one in Software Centre is outdated
[08:01] <LjL> Cop: it's there for me. what release are you on?
[08:01] <asfdas> Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :     invalid argument "managed".
[08:01] <pingcasts> Yoshi2889: that's the one I'm running :(
[08:01] <Yoshi2889> pingcasts: Time to update! :P
[08:01] <pingcasts> lol
[08:01] <Whiskey> Can you get xrdp to login to realvnc i thinked about so you can get console mode
[08:01] <pingcasts> will it make much of a difference?
[08:01] <Yoshi2889> No idea
[08:02] <pingcasts> no issues with it so far
[08:02] <Yoshi2889> The latest one didn't have any issues for me either
[08:02] <Yoshi2889> But I'd say stick to this a little longer
[08:02] <anonissimus> can you mount an ftp directory as a local folder without curlftpfs?
[08:02] <LjL> if something from the repositories works, there's usually no reason to "update" to something outside
[08:02] <Yoshi2889> Until the *buntu SC team needs to update it for a security release
[08:02] <Cop> I'll just download it from the website then install using software center.
[08:02] <Yoshi2889> Cop: You can find it in the software center too
[08:03] <Cop> It's not there for me
[08:03] <LjL> Cop: please consider using the repositories. it *should* be there, maybe you don't have the needed repository enabled.
[08:03] <Cop> I searched virtual box.
[08:03] <mah454> Hello
[08:03] <Yoshi2889> Search virtualbox
[08:03] <LjL> !info virtualbox | cop
[08:03] <Yoshi2889> without space
[08:03] <mah454> I need repository of this package : where is this repository ? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/amd64/libqt4-dev/4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.1
[08:03] <GeekAdmin> hi. Can I setup an Ubuntu SATA hard drive instead of a USB? Like a LIVE hard drive if that makes sense?
[08:03] <LjL> Cop: it's in Universe, so you do need to have that enabled
[08:03] <Cop> I don't know what the repo for it is.
[08:03] <Yoshi2889> GeekAdmin: I believe there are qutie a few tool for that, if I'm not mistaken unetbootin is one of them
[08:04] <LjL> Cop: Universe? i just told you :P
[08:04] <GeekAdmin> Yoshi2889:  so its just like making an Ubuntu USB?
[08:04] <Yoshi2889> GeekAdmin: Yep
[08:04] <LjL> Cop: most of the packages are in Universe anyway, so you generally want that enabled.
[08:04] <Yoshi2889> GeekAdmin: Just select your HDD instead of your USB
[08:04] <Yoshi2889> GeekAdmin: Be sure to make an extra partition though
[08:04] <Yoshi2889> Just a small one
[08:05] <Yoshi2889> approx. 1 GB, will even have you with like 400 MBs left of it
[08:05] <GeekAdmin> Yoshi2889:  this is actually for someone else in my channel that isnt very experienced with Ubuntu.   Is that something a newb could do?
[08:05] <Yoshi2889> Sure
[08:05] <GeekAdmin> Yoshi2889:  they are using WIndows..
[08:06] <Yoshi2889> unetbootin is also for windows ;)
[08:06] <rax-> can I use apt-mirror to mirror multiple releases? basically the same as using rync for an entire mirror but for select releases?
[08:07] <checcoxxx> ciao
[08:07] <checcoxxx> !list
[08:07] <Yoshi2889> I still don't know any alternatives to pulseaudio-equalizer
[08:09] <geirha> GeekAdmin: Why do you want a live install on your harddrive?
[08:09] <AdvoWork> you know running a command in terminal, can i somehow do that but hide the terminal? so its running in the background? I've tried & at the end, but that doesn't work, it loads the program and gives an error
[08:09] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  no other options.
[08:09] <checcoxxx> ciao
[08:09] <checcoxxx> !list
[08:09] <geirha> GeekAdmin: no other options? why not a regular install?
[08:10] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  No CD, DVD, or USB flash stick
[08:10] <dr_willis> you can allways set up grub2 to boot an iso file from a hard drive partition. ;)
[08:10] <rax-> nobody can help? ;(
[08:10] <dr_willis> then do a full instgsll to a 2nd hard drive. or partition
[08:10] <GeekAdmin> dr_willis:  nice! I keep hearing good things about it. This is actually for someone in my channel...
[08:10] <geirha> GeekAdmin: Ah, but there are other ways to install
[08:10] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  really? even if that person has Windows?
[08:11] <dr_willis> wonder if you could dd the iso file to a little hard drive then boot it..  and install to a 2nd hard drive or location.
[08:11] <geirha> GeekAdmin: Yes, a wubi install for instance.
[08:12] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  eeek WUBI!!!?!?!
[08:12] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  sorry I just have had nothing but terrible experiences with Wubi. Personally I think its destroying Ubuntu's reputation
[08:12] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  makes people think Ubuntu is slow and buggy
[08:13] <optimight> With few Updates my system with Ubuntu 12.04 LT needs to be restarted, and I lost the IRC channels like this ...  how to avoid this? Is there any way without restarting the OS updates can be applied
[08:14] <Arash> Hello :-)
[08:14] <Arash> !whoami
[08:14] <Arash> @whoami
[08:14] <dr_willis> optimight:  thats how most updates work. a few need rebooting to get applied.
[08:14] <Arash> hi dr willis
[08:15] <Cottus> @whoami
[08:15] <geirha> GeekAdmin: Ok, then other options are install over network or connect the drive in another machine for installation
[08:15] <optimight> Is there any way we can get complete hibenate like effect after restarting?
[08:16] <geirha> GeekAdmin: the network one requires a bit of prep though, not the easiest way to install
[08:16] <optimight> dr_willis : Is there any way we can get complete hibenate like effect after restarting?
[08:16] <GeekAdmin> geirha:  I'd like to look into that. Thanks. Always wanted to do a network install
[08:16] <dr_willis> optimight:  that statement makes no sence to me..
[08:16] <geirha> !install | GeekAdmin
