[00:00] <wolfy1339> I've got a folder with lots of sub-folers containing files i want to delete, using a specific name, is it possible to do this? if so how?
[00:00] <ShutterBC> when I mount the drive on my other machine here, I can see vmlinuz.efi just fine
[00:01] <silenz> is there a way to change the dpi settings in ubuntu?
[00:02] <ShutterBC> meh -- not worth my time, I'm wiping out this image, doing a bad block test, and calling it a day
[00:02] <ShutterBC> wolfy1339, you want to delete a certain file name pattern from a bunch of subdirectories?
[00:04] <wolfy1339> ShutterBC, yes
[00:06] <ShutterBC> wolfy1339, I'm too out of practice at scripting but this is doable
[00:06] <dcmg> wolfy1339:
[00:06] <dcmg> as an example
[00:07] <dcmg>  mkdir -p frogs/snake/dog ; touch frogs/cakes frogs/snake/cakes frogs/snake/dog/cakes
[00:07] <dcmg> find frogs -name cakes
[00:08] <dcmg>  for i in `find frogs -name cakes` ; do echo "${i}" ; done
[00:08] <dcmg> if you replace that "echo" with rm it would remove all the files
[00:09] <wolfy1339> ok
[00:12] <ShutterBC> nice example building up the solution :)
[00:13] <namakon> l
[00:14] <flewp> hi, how can I resize default font of urxvt?
[00:16] <dcmg> flewp: I believe you specify the size in your ~/.Xresources configuration file
[00:16] <flewp> dcmg: yes, I was wondering what the default font was called, could not find it anywhere
[00:17] <flewp> also which setting to be exact, I think it's URxvt.font: xft:monaco:size=10
[00:17] <flewp> but it's not monaco
[00:21] <dcmg> maybe try this in ~/.Xdefaults    URxvt*font: -xos4-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-15,xft:terminus:pixelsize:12
[00:21] <dcmg> make a backup of the file first, and make sure your system wont get damaged
[00:22] <flewp> dcmg: urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting.
[00:24] <jbates58> hi all. i am looking to setup a spare machine i have as a ubuntu firewall/router for my home network. my plan is to use it like so. have the ubuntu machine as a centra backup location where all of our computer data syncs to, run my download clients on it and use it to stream media to the house (if possible). but i also want it to be able to limit both the quota and speed of data to the download
[00:24] <jbates58> clients running on the same machine. is this possible? am i able to make a virtual network adaptor, and have the downloader use that, and then limit that ip? or does it not work like that? i am interested in learning how this all works and providing an extra layer of security to my network. not that it has ever been broken into, its only a home connection.
[00:24] <Pinkamena_D> consistently, when I use my thinkpad t60 with a docking station, if I suspend and resume, the screen just flashes once or twice a second and will not unfreeze. cant switch to terminal, only sysrq works. Any idea what would cause this? some video driver issue?
[00:25] <RasAlGhul> Is anyone else having trouble with Flash/youtube on the latest version of Ubuntu?
[00:27] <Geo> Hi... I'm looking to create a login-based file sharing site a little more user-friendly/easy on the eyes than hosting something over FTP or HTTP... does anyone have a suggestion for a program that would do this?
[00:29] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> Geo: something like Dropbox?
[00:29] <RasAlGhul> Is anyone else having trouble with Flash/youtube on the latest version of Ubuntu?
[00:30] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> RasAlGhul: what kind of trouble?
[00:30] <RasAlGhul> Like it not working
[00:30] <RasAlGhul> Ever since that flash player update
[00:30] <Geo> KyouReeUs4nfo_: something like that would work, yes... is there an opensource equivilent?
[00:31] <RasAlGhul> Youtube just gives an error
[00:32] <Geo> I'm not looking to install anything on the user-end computer though, it should be available via the web
[00:32] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: Your answer is not helpful at all.
[00:32] <Ethanryan> How can I install firefox 29 beta on ubuntu?
[00:32] <RasAlGhul> rspinuz: the youtube error is not descriptive
[00:33] <RasAlGhul> it just gives me a black box where the video should be and says an error has occured, click here to learn more
[00:33] <Sector_0> is there a way to install the proprietary ATI drivers (fglrx) and still have the mesa drivers active in case I want to use my built in chipset?
[00:33] <Sector_0> basically my situation is this...
[00:34] <pfifo> Sector_0: yes
[00:34] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: What browser, have you tried a different one?
[00:34] <Sector_0> I have a built in intel chipset and a separate AT radeon 5500HD Redwood
[00:34] <RasAlGhul> I have not, but that does not really help me because this is my only browser.
[00:34] <Sector_0> I would like to be able to simply reboot and switch the vga cable on the fly
[00:35] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: Please use nick tags when talking directly to someone
[00:35] <Sector_0> pfifo: so if I install the fglrx driver would I be able to restart, plug the vga cable to the built in graphic card and have a work properly?
[00:35] <Doctor_N1ck> ubantu
[00:36] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> Geo: pastelink.me is not necessarily open-source but it doesn't need any sign-ups
[00:36] <Doctor_N1ck> whats the ubuntu offtopic channel
[00:36] <Geo> Need to host it locally
[00:36] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: How do you know it does not help you?
[00:36] <Ethanryan> What ppa should I add to get firefox beta (specifically version 29)?
[00:36] <jak2000> hi all
[00:36] <Geo> I'm finding owncloud... it looks like overkill, but I tihnk it has what I need in it
[00:36] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> Geo: looking
[00:36] <Beldar> !ot | Doctor_N1ck
[00:36] <pfifo> Sector_0: no, it will keep using the fglrx driver, you would have to disable it before rebooting, but other than that, you can switch back and forth. have you considered dual monitors
[00:37] <jak2000> i run this command rsync -avzhe ssh root@<IP_ADDRESS>:/root/install.log /tmp/   ask me a password of pc: <IP_ADDRESS>, i want type these command in a shell script, how to put the password?
[00:37] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: You are the one asking for help, I think you should listen to the advice given more so then question everything.
[00:37] <jak2000> put/write
[00:37] <RasAlGhul> rspinuz: I just want to know the answer to my question. Did Ubuntu break flash?
[00:37] <RasAlGhul> Did Adobe discontinue Linux flash support?
[00:37] <Beldar> yes
[00:37] <Sector_0> pfifo: but dont both monitors have to connect to the same video card?
[00:37] <pfifo> jak2000: you dont. use passwordless logins ove ssh
[00:37] <pfifo> Sector_0: nope
[00:38] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: Again what browser are you using and have you tried another browser
[00:38] <Sector_0> can linux use two graphics drivers at once?
[00:38] <Ethanryan> RasAlGhul they stopped releasing new feature updates, but continue to update for security.
[00:38] <RasAlGhul> Firefox
[00:38] <Din_Weasel> why the heck do you need a firefox beta, use a stable version
[00:38] <jak2000> pfifo, but via ssh, too ask me a password
[00:38] <jak2000> rsync -avzhe ssh root@<IP_ADDRESS>:/root/install.log /tmp/
[00:39] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: Again with the nick tagging please
[00:39] <Ethanryan> Din_Weasel I'm definitely in the power user category and would like to try out the new Australis interface.
[00:39] <jbates58> hi all. i am looking to setup a spare machine i have as a ubuntu firewall/router for my home network. my plan is to use it like so. have the ubuntu machine as a centra backup location where all of our computer data syncs to, run my download clients on it and use it to stream media to the house (if possible). but i also want it to be able to limit both the quota and speed of data to the download

[00:39] <pfifo> Sector_0: you cant use a accelrated nvidia and an accelrated ati at the same time, but you can use one of them, and the plain VESA driver that comes with xorg
[00:40] <Sector_0> pfifo: oh ok
[00:41] <pfifo> jak2000: make it so ssh does not ask for a password by http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html
[00:41] <Geo> pfifo: While we're talking about video cards, allow me to jump in- I have an ATI Rage XL video card which does not function on Ubuntu 12.04- how can I remedy that? I assume I need to install some driver?
[00:41] <rspinuz> jbates58: Continually asking is not going to get you help any faster.   Sometimes people are busy,
[00:41] <Sector_0> pfifo: the reason I asked the question though was because at the moment my ATI is giving troubles and I don't want to completely put it aside, so in the event I turn on my computer tomorrow and I have no output I'd like to fall back the integrated graphics
[00:41] <pfifo> Geo: isnt rage like 20 years old?
[00:41] <Sector_0> how do you suggest I work around that one?
[00:41] <rspinuz> RasAlGhul: what version of flash?
[00:42] <jak2000> pfifo thanks
[00:42] <jbates58> @rspinuz. sorry mate. just wasnt sure if it was seen,
[00:42] <RasAlGhul> how do I find out what version I have
[00:42] <pfifo> Sector_0: if it fails completly you can take it out of the box and ubuntu will automatically use the built in one
[00:42] <RasAlGhul> its the latest one, I just updated it
[00:42] <jak2000> pfifo you know about certificates and keys right? how to generate a .cer and a .key?
[00:42] <Bashing-om> Sector_0: Nother option, make up xorg.conf files and set which .conf file to use when re-booting ->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1743535
[00:42] <Geo> pfifo: no clue, but its what is inside the box I'm using at this time
[00:42] <pfifo> jak2000: follow the instructions in that link
[00:42] <rspinuz> jbates58: It is two large blocks of text.  Everyone sees it.  Trust me.
[00:43] <pfifo> Geo: can you run 'sudo lshw && lspci' and pastebin the results
[00:43] <Geo> Would you like me to grep out the video portions?
[00:43] <EndymionM> Is there a PDF printer built into Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS?  Or what's the best one I can install in your experiences?
[00:43] <jak2000> pfifo yes no problem, its other dude...
[00:43] <pfifo> Geo: dosent matter to me, ive seen thousands of those
[00:43] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> Geo: https://cloudant.com ; open-source development of this project underway
[00:44] <pfifo> EndymionM: I had one by default in ubuntu/unity 13.10
[00:44] <dcmg> EndymionM: in libreoffice
[00:44] <dcmg> you may need to push it a little to convert the .pdf, but that is the idea
[00:45] <EndymionM> pfifo, dcmg: Unfortunately, that doesn't allow me to print, say, a coupon sent to me by e-mail.
[00:45] <pfifo> jak2000: there is no other dude involved here, its all you, you generate the keys, you copy it to the server your sshing to and you never have to type a password again
[00:45] <dcmg> i think it may even have an ability to printf .pdf directly
[00:45] <pfifo> EndymionM: it will print it to a file
[00:45] <Geo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7138669/
[00:45] <Geo> pfifo ^^
[00:46] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> Geo: https://cloudant.com/blog/quilter-open-source-file-sharing/
[00:46] <dcmg> Geo: look into using the PPA, for the older ATI cards perhaps
[00:46] <Geo> meh, pastebinit only took one arg, stby for the second one
[00:46] <jak2000> ok, i want generate a .cer and a key and do auth web page with this cert and key file, how to?
[00:46] <Geo> Thanks KyouReeUs4nfo_
[00:46] <pfifo> EndymionM: i normally, print to pdf, ssh to my mothers box, then use 'lpr output.pdf' to print it at her house, then pick it up in my convience
[00:46] <Geo> I'll look at those in a moment
[00:46] <EndymionM> LibreOffice does a fine job of saving as PDF, certainly - I'm sure it does as well on Ubuntu as it does on XP.  But Firefox doesn't by default.
[00:47] <Geo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7138674/
[00:47] <Geo> pfifo ^^
[00:47] <Sector_0> pfifo: but the time when the card failed I took it out and ubuntu did use the integrated one but it kept saying "running in low graphics mode" and it didn't allow me to actually use to login or anything I had to eventually fallback to console interface and disable the fglrx driver
[00:48] <pfifo> Geo: that is a 20 year old video card, it dosent support opengl 1.1 and hence cant do anything fancy. xorg's vesa drive will make it work.
[00:49] <pfifo> Sector_0: that problem im not familiar with
[00:49] <Joel> is there something like xdialog that comes with ubuntu?
[00:50] <NY> 69
[00:50] <EndymionM> Ah, I think I just figured out my best solution to my problem; Firefox addon.
[00:50] <pfifo> EndymionM: have firefox use the pdf printer, then take the pdf to local library or print shop
[00:50] <Geo> pfifo, I don't mess in this realm often- where should I start, to install that?
[00:50] <NY> singles in nyv
[00:50] <NY> NYC???
[00:50] <NY> \DTF?
[00:50] <EndymionM> pfifo: I can print the pdf to paper from my other machine, it was creating the thing that was the issue.  'Bye.
[00:51] <Geo> heh... I'm sure he meant 'thanks' in there, too :P
[00:51] <pfifo> Geo: you dont have todo anything, it should be operating
[00:51] <NY> sup
[00:51] <Geo> pfifo: I can't get a display on my screen.
[00:51] <Geo> I can do command line, but nothing GUI
[00:52] <pfifo> Geo: I dont see any other VGA adapters in your pastebin, so im a little confused here
[00:52] <Geo> and actually, I think even command line was touch and go
[00:52] <NY> ill give you a nickel if you tickle my pickle
[00:52] <Geo> confused on what?
[00:52] <Joel> ahhh zenity will do it
[00:52] <crankharder> I need more creative ideas to figure out what is consuming all the space on a 94G file system.  things like... "find / -size +1000k" aren't finding whatever it is.   last time this happened I rebooted the box and it had vanished
[00:52] <pfifo> Geo: ok I see, what about on the livecd, did you get a GUI there?
[00:53] <crankharder> df is showing this now "/dev/sda1        94G   89G     0 100% /"
[00:53] <Geo> I used the alternate installer, and did command line
[00:53] <Sector_0> pfifo: here what that error look likes
[00:53] <Geo> i couldn't use the normal live cd, the display did not work there either
[00:53] <Sector_0> http://i.imgur.com/QaP9d.png
[00:54] <pfifo> Sector_0: I *think* that is unity asking if its ok to use the non-accelrated version.
[00:54] <RasAlGhul> Flash seems to work just fine in my Fedora partition
[00:54] <RasAlGhul> I don't understand
[00:54] <RasAlGhul> but I guess I will reinstall Chrome for now
[00:54] <pfifo> Geo: does GUI work in other distro/OS Im thinking it might just be a hardware problem
[00:55] <Sector_0> pfifo: I guess you're right
[00:55] <Sector_0> but then when you select the first option here what you're greeted with...
[00:55] <Sector_0> http://i.stack.imgur.com/AiwJH.png
[00:56] <Geo> pfifo: debian worked fine
[00:56] <pfifo> I need to talk to ubottu for a sec, brb
[00:58] <pfifo> !info xserver-xorg-video-r128 | Geo try installing this
[00:59] <dcmg> he needs the legacy ATI PPA
[00:59] <dcmg> pfifo: is what I am thinking anyway
[01:00] <pfifo> Sector_0: its not really unexpected that a failed video card would creat this problem, you said you had a work around. I dont know if theres a way to get it to automatically detect and correct at startup without writing some complicated scripts yourself
[01:01] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> Does anyone know a way to disable CD-drive without disabling it from BIOS?
[01:01] <pfifo> KyouReeUs4nfo_: roll you own kernel without cdrom support
[01:02] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> pfifo: let's say without recompiling a kernel, I would like to continue using current kernel
[01:02] <dcmg> actually I dont think a true minimal ubuntu install has CD support
[01:02] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_:  You could just stop it from mounting at boot
[01:02] <pfifo> dcmg: i can confirm it does
[01:02] <dcmg> if you specify no dependencies even? ok pfifo I believe you
[01:03] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: let's say I would like it to mount but if I insert a CD it wouldn't read it
[01:03] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_:  What
[01:04] <dcmg> debootstrap variant minimal might not have any cdrom software anyway. But i guess the kernel drivers are still there
[01:04] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_:  So you want to disable it or do you want to use it?
[01:04] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> I am trying to reverse-engineer an issue actually to be honest
[01:05] <pfifo> dcmg: it comes with mount, umount. and the kernel has scsi cdrom, and iso9660 compiled in
[01:06] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> I want to find out the pointers where to look for if I come across issues with CD drive to troubleshoot it
[01:07] <Sector_0> pfifo: I see :(
[01:07] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> I don't clearly remember but bastile-linux had given me an option to disable it or something long ago and I did but I just don't remember what exactly it was
[01:07] <c2tarun> Hi friends, can anyone please tell me a STABLE torrent client for ubuntu. I tried qbittorrent it works great for sometime and then it randomly crashes.
[01:08] <dcmg> https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt perhaps with a kernel boot paramters KyouReeUs4nfo_
[01:08] <Sector_0> pfifo: on that note though, is there a way to disable fglrx without removing it?
[01:08] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> dcmg: I will check thanks
[01:08] <Sector_0> all the time I've disabled it I've just removed it be cause I don't really know of any other of doing
[01:08] <thiebaude> c2tarun, you tried transmission?
[01:09] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_:  1) Not even close to what you were asking.  B) Your question has nothing to do with ubuntu.  Please pick the correct development channel and ask there.
[01:09] <pfifo> !blacklist | Sector_0
[01:10] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: will do
[01:10] <c2tarun> thiebaude, yeah, I have transmission, never tried it though, it lacks a feature of autoshutdown. Anyway its better than crashing and doing nothing. I'll try transmission.
[01:11] <alphahawk98> does any one know any conspiracy\
[01:11] <thiebaude> c2tarun, oh i c
[01:11] <kostkon> c2tarun, deluge
[01:11] <thiebaude> kttorent, but then you might not want all those kde dependencies
[01:11] <thiebaude> c2tarun,
[01:12] <c2tarun> kostkon, I am looking into deluge only, I want to check the version of deluge in repository. How can I check only version from repo and not download the application?
[01:12] <c2tarun> thiebaude, yeah, :( I used Ktorrent long time back. I really miss Ktorrent. I am seriously thinking of installing it with all dependencies
[01:13] <Geo> pfifo, thanks for that. I installed it, do I need to restart or lsmod or something?
[01:13] <pfifo> c2tarun: apt-cache show <package name>
[01:13] <kostkon> c2tarun, software centre should display the version. in the terminal: apt-cache policy deluge
[01:14] <pfifo> Geo: restarting X should be all thats needed, but most users fin rebooting to be easier
[01:14] <Geo> ok, thanks
[01:15] <c2tarun> thanks :) pfifo, kostkon
[01:15] <thiebaude> c2tarun, there is something called qbittorrent
[01:15] <c2tarun> thiebaude, I am using it right now.
[01:15] <thiebaude> ohh,lol :)
[01:15] <c2tarun> it sometimes works great, but crashes randomly :)
[01:16] <thiebaude> then thats no good :(
[01:16] <c2tarun> yup :(
[01:16] <thiebaude> c2tarun, how about vuze?
[01:17] <c2tarun> thiebaude, vuze, never heard about it.
[01:17]  * c2tarun googling
[01:18] <thiebaude> c2tarun, http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/01/top-5-bit-torrent-clients-for-ubuntu.html scroll down a little
[01:20] <c2tarun> thiebaude, ohhh.. :) I remember its name azeureus :) Back when I was moving from win 98 to XP and broadband was introduced, I used it on a PC with 128 MB Ram :) It slowed my PC like hell. I am going to give it another shot in ubuntu
[01:21] <pfifo> c2tarun: java drags down ubuntu just as bad as windows, but a good multicore CPU can handle it
[01:21] <thiebaude> i ahve heard of azeureus never used it, in ubuntu it was always transmission, in windows which i use to use i used uttorrent
[01:21] <thiebaude> have
[01:21] <thiebaude> c2tarun,
[01:21] <c2tarun> thiebaude, yeah, utorrent is awesome :|
[01:21] <pfifo> utorrent is loaded with spyware
[01:21] <thiebaude> i have tried bittorrent also
[01:22] <c2tarun> pfifo, really :O
[01:23] <Sector_0> pfifo: thank
[01:23] <c2tarun> pfifo, I thought its the lightest client ever
[01:23] <Sector_0> you were great help
[01:23] <pfifo> c2tarun: the client is great, the installer really layers on the crapware tho
[01:24] <Sector_0> guess I'll just have to keep falling back to console to blacklist the driver whenever it acts up
[01:24] <Sector_0> until I get new one that is
[01:24] <pfifo> !yay | Sector_0
[01:24] <c2tarun> pfifo, ohhh......
[01:25] <pfifo> i mean, how many browser toolbars do I have to install to get utorrent working, 3, 5?
[01:28] <ksbalaji> I am on Lucid canonical firefox 20.0 with flashplayer 3.7 From yesterday flashplayer got disabled. Some problem with facebook security. I am now unable to open youtube :( . Help please!
[01:33] <OerHeks> ksbalaji, old desktop is EOL, old browser, current is firefox 28, no worder
[01:34] <sudormrf> hey guys.  looking at installing a torrent client on ubuntu server.  the client needs to have a web ui and be rss capable.  any recommendations?
[01:34] <sudormrf> I was looking at rtorrent, but all of the guides I am finding are really old
[01:34] <rypervenche> sudormrf: deluge
[01:34] <ksbalaji> OerHeks: How to solve please?
[01:34] <pfifo> sudormrf: I use transmission-daemon on my server, not sure about the rss part tho
[01:34] <sudormrf> rypervenche: rss doesn't work
[01:34] <sudormrf> not in CLI only
[01:35] <sudormrf> you need gui for deluge rss
[01:35] <sudormrf> pfifo: last time I tried transmission it wasn't grabbing things from my watch folder :S
[01:35] <OerHeks> ksbalaji, upgrade your ubuntu to an supported version
[01:35] <rypervenche> sudormrf: It has a plugin you can use for RSS with a GUI.
[01:35] <pfifo> sudormrf: ive used rtorrent in the past, but didnt like it, you might want to try it though
[01:36] <OerHeks> !lucid
[01:36] <sudormrf> rypervenche: ubuntu server.  no gui
[01:36] <sudormrf> pfifo: I was looking at rtorrent, trying to find an updated tut for setting up a web ui
[01:36] <rypervenche> sudormrf: You can do it from web interface.
[01:36] <sudormrf> everything I am finding is really old
[01:36] <sudormrf> rypervenche: it doesn't work m8.
[01:36] <c2tarun> pfifo, I am thinking about writing a script which on every 5 mins will check if qbittorrent is running or not. If it is not running then it'll start it. Do you think running this script(when required) will slow down system?
[01:37] <sudormrf> you can't add feeds from the web ui
[01:37] <pfifo> sudormrf: cant help you there, havent touched it since 2008
[01:37] <sudormrf> heh
[01:37] <ksbalaji> OerHeks: My HDD is down and I am on an USB stick loaded with Lucid. It does not upgrade, however I try. Can I upgrade firefox and flash?
[01:37] <sudormrf> that seems to be when most of the documentation stopped lel
[01:37] <pfifo> c2tarun: no, theres all kinds of that stuff hapening already on your system
[01:37] <sudormrf> rypervenche: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Plugins/YaRSS2 "A RSS plugin for Deluge 1.3 configured through the GTKUI"
[01:38] <sudormrf> rypervenche: no guy installed on this box
[01:38] <sudormrf> gui
[01:38] <c2tarun> pfifo, great :) thanks
[01:39] <pfifo> c2tarun: i would write a script that has an infinate loop and when ever the client exits it starts it again
[01:40] <advx_> Help needed, Ubuntu 13.10 x86_64 ver, Installed 4GB DDR3 RAM, it shows only 3.3GB!
[01:40] <c2tarun> pfifo, yeah same logic here, I'll also try to add a 5 mins sleep time in between every check.
[01:40] <advx_> trying to install linux-generic-pae but, dependencies not able to download
[01:41] <pfifo> c2tarun: thats different from what I said, let me pastebin something
[01:41] <advx_> Hi All Good Morning
[01:42] <sudormrf> pfifo: it looks like rtorrent + rutorrent is what I am looking for.  just need to find info on how to set it up...and make sure that rutorrent is still being developed on.
[01:44] <pfifo> c2tarun: http://hastebin.com/paxulifubo.bash
[01:46] <c2tarun> pfifo, ohhh... temporary file kind of logic :) this will also work, I was kind of thinking about checking output of ps -A | grep qbittorrent. if nothing returns, start qbittorrent otherwise check after 5 mins
[01:47] <c2tarun> or in your case sleep 10s
[01:47] <OerHeks> sudormrf, maybe it comes with a buch of dependencies, but Ktorrent has a webui:8080 plugin too
[01:47] <OerHeks> *bunch
[01:47] <sudormrf> OerHeks: RSS?
[01:47] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> what is the name of generic kernel module for CD-ROM support?
[01:48] <grimeton> are there any bugs known in nginx' rewrite module?
[01:48] <OerHeks> sudormrf, jups > old post but still works > http://askubuntu.com/a/48567
[01:48] <grimeton> i'm getting some really weird errors that are kinda "random"
[01:50] <elky> grimeton: #nginx is more likely to know specifics about nginx than we are
[01:50] <sors_> does anyone know what package libgmp.la comes in in ubuntu - it should be libgmp-dev but apparently 13.10 doesn't have it?
[01:50] <mz`> deluge for torrent
[01:50] <carlos> olaaaa
[01:51] <pfifo> c2tarun: the script doesnt do anything while the client is running, hence it dosent use any resources, which maybe a bit better than checking nevery 5 minutes
[01:51] <kostkon> !find libgmp.la
[01:51] <sors_> kostkon, so no go
[01:52] <kostkon> sors_, y
[01:52] <c2tarun> pfifo, ohh.... yup, myscript will unnecessarily update a variable with return of ps -A and then check it. yours have two steps less than mine
[01:52] <elky> sors_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libgmp-dev says it exists
[01:52] <mz`> elky: +1
[01:52] <kostkon> !find libgmp.a
[01:53] <sors_> elky, yes but not that .la file
[01:53] <sors_> elky, it's also missing libmpfr.la libmpc.la
[01:53] <pfifo> !info libgmp-dev | kostkon
[01:54] <mz`> get the source and rebuild it
[01:55] <sors_> mz, i will have to
[01:55] <elky> sors_: it looks like ubuntu just slurped up the debian version. all the package files are at the link. remember to let debian know so they can fix it upstream
[01:56] <ScaredZebra> hey yall
[01:56] <ScaredZebra> hey
[01:56] <ScaredZebra> how yall are
[01:57] <ScaredZebra> hi
[01:57] <jirido> Im good!
[01:57] <ScaredZebra> kk
[01:57] <pfifo> ScaredZebra: dandy
[01:57] <ScaredZebra> XD
[01:57] <ScaredZebra> so, what are yall using Ubuntu for?
[01:58] <pfifo> operating my computer system
[01:58] <ScaredZebra> oh, nice
[01:58] <ScaredZebra> I still gotta use winblows for that
[01:58] <ScaredZebra> Ubuntu is my server farm and render/folding farm, though
[01:58] <ScaredZebra> OS
[01:59] <monkwitdafunk> Ububtu makes it easy for nvidia drivers
[01:59] <ScaredZebra> yeah, which I like
[01:59] <pfifo> ubunt is 99% nethack, and like 1% work and stuff
[01:59] <ScaredZebra> lol, yeah
[01:59] <ScaredZebra> I have Ubuntu, backbox, and kali on my 3 VMs on my winblows comp
[01:59] <monkwitdafunk> Audio playback and recording is great as a ubuntu box
[02:00] <ScaredZebra> not entirely work. :0
[02:00] <monkwitdafunk> I have ubuntu and knoppix
[02:00] <ScaredZebra> for mine, I meant
[02:00] <ScaredZebra> i havnt tried knoppix, is  it good?
[02:00] <monkwitdafunk> I want to adopt slackware mayve
[02:00] <pfifo> im lucky, i only use windows for 3 things, multisim, fl studio and steam
[02:01] <ScaredZebra> yeah, steam
[02:01] <jirido> I got A slick lubuntu and a as slick manjaro
[02:01] <ScaredZebra> nice
[02:01] <ScaredZebra> fwokada
[02:01] <ScaredZebra> u from austin
[02:02] <monkwitdafunk> Kubuntu and ubuntu are sponsores by kernel.org as a download mirrir
[02:03] <amigamagic> Hi, someone knows if it's possible to disable notifications only for a particular application?
[02:03] <ScaredZebra> first thing i do when i get my servers back up, with 12.04.4 is chat with wall
[02:03] <ScaredZebra> srry, not a wall. y'all
[02:03] <jirido> Manjaro Is a roling realease so one dont have to upgrade ever! Built on archlinux
[02:03] <ScaredZebra> oh, really? nice
[02:04] <ScaredZebra> ever put it on a raspberry pi?
[02:04] <jirido> streamlined
[02:04] <fwaokda> anyone got a good name idea for a crowd sourcing website?
[02:04] <amigamagic> I set deja dup to make backups every minute, but every minute I see that annoying notification 'backup complete', so I would like to disable the notifications only for deja dup
[02:04] <ScaredZebra> idk, AM, you could try to dig through the settings, or left click
[02:05] <monkwitdafunk> Which ubuntu does everyone use
[02:05] <ScaredZebra> on the notification
[02:05] <monkwitdafunk> I am using desktop
[02:05] <amigamagic> mmmh... left click on the notification?
[02:05] <monkwitdafunk> I have also used alternate
[02:05] <ScaredZebra> 12.04.4 servers, now.
[02:05] <ScaredZebra> and 13 for my second desktop VM
[02:05] <tracyone> ubuntu 14.04 lts
[02:06] <ScaredZebra> 14? is that released yet?
[02:06] <monkwitdafunk> Yeah. I prefer long term support as well
[02:06] <amigamagic> 12.04 LTS
[02:06] <pfifo> 12.04 32bit, and 13.10 64bit
[02:06] <amigamagic> there is a 14 LTS !?
[02:06] <ScaredZebra> lol i think its a typo
[02:06] <ScaredZebra> cuz 13 is brand new
[02:06] <pfifo> 14.04 is not relesed yet, but you can try the alpha, /join #ubuntu+1
[02:06] <monkwitdafunk> Check to see if the torrent is available at mirrors.kernel.org
[02:07] <awesomess3> soonhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule April 17th
[02:07] <ScaredZebra> oh, really? huh, gonna have to set up a 4th VM
[02:07] <amigamagic> I tried to click on the notification... Nothing happens...
[02:07] <ScaredZebra> oh. sorry
[02:07] <amigamagic> so it's not possible to hide that annoying notification?
[02:07] <ScaredZebra> i don't really look at it, have u tried digging through the settings?
[02:08] <kostkon> amigamagic, ubuntu notifications are not clickable
[02:08] <ScaredZebra> like left click, i though
[02:08] <ScaredZebra> t
[02:08] <amigamagic> kostkon, I noticed
[02:08] <ScaredZebra> XD
[02:08] <ScaredZebra> wow
[02:09] <ScaredZebra> hey
[02:09] <ScaredZebra> fwaokda
[02:09] <monkwitdafunk> How do you depend on zulu system v
[02:09] <amigamagic> deja dup doesn't have any option to change notifications behaviour
[02:10] <ScaredZebra> dang. sorry i couldn't help there
[02:10] <kostkon> amigamagic, bug 912880
[02:10] <advx_> Help needed, Ubuntu 13.10 x86_64 ver, Installed 4GB DDR3 RAM, it shows only 3.3GB!
[02:10] <ScaredZebra> thx
[02:10] <ScaredZebra> cuz its 32 bit
[02:10] <anon99999> I am using two monitors, one on a laptop and another connected by hdmi. How do I set the edges to loop back so that when the mouse is moved to any border edge it moves onto the other monitor?
[02:11] <monkwitdafunk> Is system.v.timezones the same as with debian?
[02:11] <ScaredZebra> 32 bit only recognizes 3. something gb of ram
[02:11] <amigamagic> kostkon: it's from 2012...
[02:11] <monkwitdafunk> I have recognized up to 3.4gb
[02:11] <jarkko> advx_: i think its   normal
[02:11] <monkwitdafunk> Asus and intel
[02:11] <advx_> ScaredZebra, I m using 64bit version..
[02:12] <ScaredZebra> oh. well. that changes things
[02:12] <jarkko> advx_: igot 8gb , i see 7.7 system monitor
[02:12] <kostkon> amigamagic, yeah, hasn't been fixed yet
[02:12] <amigamagic> status confirmed and no one corrects the damned bug!? :D
[02:12] <advx_> hmm
[02:12] <ScaredZebra> have you enabled PAE/NX
[02:12] <advx_> is it?
[02:12] <c2tarun> pfifo, Hi, I completed the script. Please take a look. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7138932/
[02:12] <ScaredZebra> or just PAE
[02:12] <advx_> n e ways to check PAE
[02:12] <ScaredZebra> what?
[02:12] <tracyone> i use ubuntu 14.04 daily build version and ubuntu 14.04 beta was released
[02:13] <ScaredZebra> c2tarun: nice
[02:13] <advx_> how to check if PAE/NX is enabled
[02:13] <ScaredZebra> oh. it may be in your BIOS
[02:13] <ScaredZebra> what comp are you using
[02:13] <Rallias> advx_, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[02:13] <advx_> Intel NUC DN2820
[02:13] <Rallias> Check under the caps line.
[02:13] <amigamagic> anyway, I would be happy to disable notifications only for that program or disable notifications for all the programs when the scheduled job starts (and reenable when the scheduled jobs ends)
[02:14] <advx_> its having flags pae
[02:14] <pfifo> c2tarun: i dont like it :)
[02:14] <advx_> Rallias, flags is having PAE
[02:14] <c2tarun> pfifo, gottcha ;)
[02:14] <ScaredZebra> pae might fix it, im not really sure
[02:15] <ScaredZebra> i think it will, though
[02:15] <jarkko> uname -a shows 3.13.6-031306-generic  /lib/modules has 3.13.6-031306-generic and 3.13.0-6-generic  is this normal?
[02:15] <monkwitdafunk> Amigamagic. Do you wish to diffrentiate sound and display
[02:15] <amigamagic> I would be happy with another backup program too, but I haven't found nothing that does incremental backups on a NAS device with the ability to go back to previous versions of a file
[02:15] <advx_> jarkko, I m on 3.11.018-generic
[02:15] <pfifo> c2tarun: your always running the sleep command, while it dosent really take many resources, my idea literally used NO resources until the target program ended/closed... also you have no way to stop this script
[02:15] <Rallias> amigamagic, Deja-dup/duplicity come with Ubuntu Desktop by default.
[02:16] <advx_> Linux  3.11.0-18-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 18 21:11:14 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[02:16] <advx_> I m re-downloading ubuntu 13.10 x86_64
[02:16] <amigamagic> Rallias, yeah, and until now is the best backup app I tried, because it does incremental backups on a NAS device too
[02:16] <OerHeks> advx_, PAE is only for 32 bit kernels
[02:16] <advx_> should I reInstall
[02:16] <advx_> ok
[02:16] <ScaredZebra> ok, maybe.
[02:16] <amigamagic> I tried Back in Time, but it doesn't work well on NAS
[02:17] <kostkon> advx_, what is your graphics card? it could be that it uses some of your ram for its own needs
[02:17] <advx_> OerHeks, y is it not showing full 4GB ram?
[02:17] <amigamagic> and I tried many other backup progs, but each one has some problem
[02:17] <advx_> O
[02:17] <OerHeks> advx_, if your system still shows you less than 4 gb, the bottleneck is your motherboard chipset
[02:17] <advx_> no graphics card
[02:17] <ScaredZebra> OerHeks: sorry for the wrong info, thx for the correction...
[02:17] <Rallias> amigamagic, Ok, so you're looking for one for windows or... I'm confused.
[02:17] <advx_> Hmm
[02:17] <monkwitdafunk> Amigamagic. Do you think live disk recovery is usefull
[02:17] <amigamagic> Rallias, no, for Ubuntu 12.04
[02:17] <kostkon> advx_, lspci | grep -i vga   in the terminal
[02:18] <Rallias> amigamagic, Ok... deja-dup is packaged for ubuntu 12.04 I thought.
[02:18] <c2tarun> pfifo, but in your idea I have to touch a .run file whenever I want to start the script
[02:18] <bess> HI I am trying to install ubuntu gnome 13.10 but the installer crashes when I hit the custom partition install
[02:18] <advx_> kostkon, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation ValleyView Gen7 (rev 0c)
[02:18] <jarkko> bess: i think its known issue
[02:18] <pfifo> c2tarun: no, the script does that for you, you delete it to get the script to end
[02:18] <OerHeks> onboard videocard-memory,cpu-cache,hdd-cache,soundcard-cache, all adds up
[02:18] <amigamagic> monkwitdafunk, I would be fine with a clonezilla too, but I don't want to power off the PC to make a backup
[02:18] <jarkko> bess: happened to me too before
[02:18] <ScaredZebra> almost done with the 12.04.4 d/l gotta go
[02:18] <bess> jarkko: any way to install it ?
[02:19] <jarkko> bess: just try again
[02:19] <ScaredZebra> gonna burn it and update my servers
[02:19] <amigamagic> and I want incremental backup
[02:19] <ScaredZebra> bye
[02:19] <pfifo> c2tarun: and you really dont need that part, while [ "1" == "1" ] would be ok too
[02:19] <bess> jarkko: lol, trying for the third time :(
[02:19] <ScaredZebra> sorry for all the help i didn't give
[02:19] <ScaredZebra> XD
[02:19] <monkwitdafunk> I have not used clonezilla for your example. Sorry
[02:19] <jarkko> bess: autodisk allocation might work
[02:19] <advx_> So ppl, do u think its MB issue, or do I need to re-install
[02:19] <c2tarun> pfifo, okay, I agree with my "while" stupidity,  but you are also using sleep 10s so how is your sleep 10s is better than my sleep 5m?
[02:19] <Rallias> amigamagic, I'm not infront of a machine that I can boot a 12.04 VM on, but try apt-cache search deja-dup. It should show up.
[02:19] <advx_> ne app for viewing graphics card ram
[02:20] <amigamagic> monkwitdafunk, so what you mean
[02:20] <amigamagic> Rallias, I use currently deja-dup
[02:20] <kostkon> advx_, it's not an issue. intel systems do that, share some of the ram with the grapgics card
[02:20] <jarkko> advx_: i have 8gb ram and it shows 7.7 system monitor...i think you have no reason to worry
[02:20] <bess> jarkko: there is no option in the instsaller for that
[02:20] <amigamagic> but the problem is that it shows those annoying notifications when the backup is finished
[02:20] <pfifo> c2tarun: my sleep is simply a 3 second pause to allow the target program to cleanup, it can be ommited as well wich will make the target program restart right away
[02:20] <advx_> thanks
[02:20] <jarkko> bess: the autoistalll, use all diskspace for install?
[02:21] <kostkon> advx_, usually you can set the amount of shared ram that your graphics card can use in the bios. go check it out if you want
[02:21] <advx_> kostkon jarkka
[02:21] <amigamagic> and being that I scheduled the backup to start every minute, it's very annoying to see a notification every minute
[02:21] <advx_> ok
[02:21] <advx_> will check BIOS, btw its EFI
[02:21] <advx_> UEFI
[02:21] <c2tarun> pfifo, but while will continuosly be checking for existence of .run file, don't you think it'll take some resource of processor?
[02:21] <pfifo> c2tarun: my script is better because the restart is triggered by the target crashing, as opposed to being triggered by a check to see if the program crashed
[02:21] <bess> jarkko: I got Upgrade from 12.04, erase 12.04 and re-install, erase everything and re-install or something else
[02:21] <jarkko> amigamagic: what are you constantly backing up?
[02:21] <c2tarun> pfifo, but while will continuosly be checking for existence of .run file, don't you think it'll take some resource of processor?
[02:22] <advx_> will Live disk to any other linux and check also
[02:22] <Rallias> amigamagic, Deja-dup is based on duplicity at it's core. You could attach duplicity to the user crontab and use that instead.
[02:22] <jarkko> bess: can you upgrade from commandline?
[02:22] <pfifo> c2tarun: it dosent continusoly check for .run, it only loops when the target program crashes
[02:22] <advx_> btw Y does my system monitor does not have system tab
[02:22] <c2tarun> pfifo, ohhh. so you suggesting that I should also ommit & and let it loop as soon as program crashes :) nice
[02:22] <bess> jarkko: I was looking for the alternative install (CLI mode) but there wasn't any for gnome
[02:23] <monkwitdafunk> Which system monitor
[02:23] <amigamagic> Rallias, I would be glad to make that but I don't know how to do...
[02:23] <ice9> how to get the amount of the vram?
[02:23] <pfifo> c2tarun: yeah, you got it now
[02:23] <jarkko> bess: just upgrade your sourcelist?
[02:23] <c2tarun> pfifo, I really liked the idea of controlling script by deleting a file. I am going to gym now, will comeback and implement your logic. Thanks :)
[02:23] <jarkko> bess: maybe using alternative desktop for that....
[02:24] <bess> jarkko: I wanted a fresh install with gnome, now I have to go with unity :(
[02:24] <OerHeks> grep -i --color memory /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:24] <jarkko> bess:  if you have working system it would be wise to do 2 different image installerss
[02:24] <amigamagic> jarkko, I'm backupping a folder where I would have many versions of the same file
[02:25] <amigamagic> so that I could go back to a previous version, if necessary
[02:25] <kostkon> bess, there is ubuntu-gnome
[02:25] <Rallias> amigamagic, Unfortunately, I'm not sober enough to help with shell scripting... CTRL+F SomeLongGeneratedHardToCrackKey on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto should make it relatively clear on how to do though.
[02:25] <bess> jarkko: I belive there is a problem with the image
[02:25] <bess> kostkon: Ye Just went there
[02:25] <bess> thanks
[02:26] <jarkko> bess: why do you believe so?
[02:26] <jarkko> bess:  i had that similar issue too when trying to install kubuntu..i quess it was 13.10
[02:26] <Rallias> It's even got a couple scripts to do the job for you, but you've got to modify them to your personal needs.
[02:26] <bess> jarkko: I downloaded the image 2 times, one time via torrent the other from direct tried 2 different usb-sticks, I get the same result
[02:27] <jarkko> bess: its gone even worse, last time i tried to install manjaro and kubuntu, they would boot into blank screen...
[02:27] <amigamagic> Rallias, I'm not used to shell scripting, but thanks for the link
[02:27] <jarkko> bess:  try linuxmint?
[02:28] <bess> jarkko: dunno if they have a gnome version
[02:28] <amigamagic> it would be nice if I could see what deja dup does with duplicity, so that I could duplicate its command and schedule directly it.
[02:29] <amigamagic> but... Is it possible that Deja Dup it's the only GUI for duplicity??
[02:29] <jarkko> bess: mate, cinnamon ?
[02:29] <jarkko> bess: either is gnome 2.0 based
[02:29] <bess> jarkko: I wanna be like the cool kids :P
[02:30] <bess> jarkko: so manjaro has replaced chakra ?
[02:30] <pfifo> ubuntu needs a cli based variant that isnt server
[02:30] <akiva-mobile> pfifo, Why?
[02:30] <jarkko> bess:  http://www.linuxmint.com/oldreleases.php
[02:31] <pfifo> cause GUI isnt 1337
[02:31] <jarkko> bess: http://www.linuxmint.com/release.php?id=21
[02:31] <akiva-mobile> pfifo, unity is. My workflow is tremendous with the hud
[02:32] <pfifo> I wish I could get a dual monitor setup with console on one monitor and lxde on the other
[02:32] <willwh> pfifo: you probably could
[02:32] <amigamagic> why unity has a vertical bar on the left, when widescreen lcd monitors have much more space in horizontal?
[02:33] <awesomess3> terminals are better because you can change the font size.
[02:33] <willwh> I don't see why you don't just fullscreen a term?
[02:33] <amigamagic> and why you cannot move the damned bar?
[02:33] <willwh> amigamagic: because it's unity
[02:33] <pfifo> willwh: thats the work around thus far
[02:33] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, because vertical space is more important on widescreens.
[02:33] <willwh> ubuntu is the only distro using it, because it was created for it
[02:34] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, and you can hide it if you go to settings.
[02:34] <amigamagic> the question was why I cannot move in the bottom part of the screen, being that I could show much more icons in the bottom part of a widescreen monitor
[02:35] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, You can. Branch it and do it yourself
[02:35] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, I have a much more simple solution: gnome-session-fallback
[02:35] <amigamagic> :D
[02:35] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, then you lose the power of the hud
[02:36] <amigamagic> the power? mmmh...
[02:36] <willwh> I'd hardly call untiy powerful
[02:36] <willwh> haha
[02:36] <amigamagic> I think I have much more power with classic gnome
[02:36] <willwh> I kinda understand the decision
[02:36] <willwh> but
[02:36] <akiva-mobile> willwh, have you used the hud extensively?
[02:36] <willwh> that's just a hilarious statement
[02:36] <willwh> akiva-mobile: yes of course I have
[02:36] <willwh> and the fact canonical chose amazon ads be default
[02:36] <amigamagic> I can create bars where I want
[02:36] <willwh> is pretty horrific
[02:36] <amigamagic> and place icons where I want
[02:36] <akiva-mobile> willwh, that is not the hud
[02:36] <willwh> I understand why, for the most part
[02:36] <akiva-mobile> willwh, that is the dash
[02:37] <willwh> the HUD is what?
[02:37] <akiva-mobile> *facepalm*
[02:37] <amigamagic> in Unity it's all so static
[02:37] <willwh> generally, hud = heads up display
[02:37] <willwh> so
[02:37] <willwh> please do enlighten me
[02:37] <akiva-mobile> yah, the dash is what has amazon
[02:37] <akiva-mobile> press left alt
[02:37] <amigamagic> unity problem is that it's not much customizable
[02:37] <advx_> y does compiz take so much ram, n e way to tune it?
[02:37] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, i don't think its a problem
[02:38] <akiva-mobile> advx_, try compiz config
[02:38] <advx_> ok
[02:38] <willwh> I'd agree with akiva-mobile, in that.... just use something else
[02:38] <willwh> foss is about choice
[02:38] <willwh> :)
[02:38] <akiva-mobile> ^
[02:38] <akiva-mobile> but you can customize unity if you want
[02:38] <willwh> a lot of people that dislike unity
[02:38] <akiva-mobile> as willwh said, it is foss
[02:38] <amigamagic> I tried KDE too
[02:38] <willwh> find happiness in cinnamon
[02:38] <amigamagic> and it's exactly the opposite
[02:38] <amigamagic> TOO MUCH customizable
[02:39] <amigamagic> and I hate it too
[02:39] <akiva-mobile> willwh, that is usually because people don't take advantage of the hud
[02:39] <willwh> amigamagic: no I don't think that's it
[02:39] <willwh> I think it's a familiarity thing
[02:39] <amigamagic> I tried Kubuntu 13.10
[02:39] <willwh> i.e. you tried KDE for an hour and ran screaming because it was "new"
[02:39] <willwh> i.e. the interface was foreign to you
[02:39] <willwh> or at least I would suggest so
[02:39] <amigamagic> willw
[02:39] <amigamagic> you are right
[02:39] <willwh> btw protip
[02:40] <willwh> tab-complete works in *most* irc clients
[02:40] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, have you thought of getting into ui development?
[02:40] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, it would be very nice
[02:40] <willwh> honestly, for lower end system, I use XFCE
[02:40] <willwh> and I love it
[02:40] <willwh> :)
[02:40] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, Cool; I can help get you started if you want.
[02:40] <willwh> akiva-mobile: apologies if I came across rude btw
[02:40] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic,  have you ever programmed before?
[02:41] <amigamagic> willwh, I like XFCE too
[02:41] <akiva-mobile> willwh, That is big of you. Thanks for being considerate.
[02:41] <amigamagic> it has only the essential
[02:41] <willwh> ye, I just didn't like LXDE tbh
[02:41] <amigamagic> but it's not rigid as Unity
[02:41] <willwh> akiva-mobile: I'm old enough to know better
[02:41] <willwh> amigamagic: well, I don't agree
[02:41] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, are you interested in ui development then?
[02:41] <willwh> there is a lot of good support to give you all you need in xfce
[02:42] <willwh> anyway - I have to split guys, sorry to hijack, rant, and leave
[02:42] <willwh> <3
[02:42] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, you could impliment your ideas to unity, and perhaps even have the patched in.
[02:42] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, right now I'm trying to develop mobile games
[02:42] <akiva-mobile> willwh, Good day
[02:42] <willwh> you know, that's a good idea
[02:42] <willwh> amigamagic: what are you using?
[02:42] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, for what platform?
[02:42] <willwh> now the conversation becomes interesting, haha
[02:42] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, and using what language?
[02:42] <willwh> I've been looking at kivy
[02:42] <advx_> what area of compiz can we fine tune?
[02:42] <amigamagic> I'm using godot engine
[02:42] <willwh> as I know python quite well
[02:43] <akiva-mobile> advx_, you are looking to lessen the memory footprint?
[02:44] <chro> Is ubuntu the distro with more bugs? 107056 Open bugs
[02:44] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, I don't have the time to make mods to unity... I have to develop my 2D platform-game. But I could share some ideas.
[02:44] <akiva-mobile> chro,  pardon?
[02:45] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, maybe you should make a launchpad account, and join the ubuntu unity 8 team
[02:45] <chro> akiva-mobile: ubuntu is too buggy
[02:45] <akiva-mobile> chro, how so? I find it really stable.
[02:45] <willwh> chro: that's a silly assessment
[02:45] <willwh> it's probably the most active community of all distros
[02:45] <akiva-mobile> chro, do you need some help with something?
[02:45] <willwh> and therefore probably has the most bugs filed
[02:45] <chro> no, but I have reported some bugs
[02:45] <chro> but they don't get fixed
[02:45] <willwh> ....and?
[02:45] <advx_> akiva-mobile, yep
[02:46] <willwh> chro: did you provide a patch?
[02:46] <pfifo> chro: ubuntu itself dosent have too many bugs, debian took care of most of the distro for us
[02:46] <willwh> can you link your bug reports?
[02:46] <willwh> "waah no one fixed my bugs"
[02:46] <akiva-mobile> advx_, Well first my pragmatic solution is just to buy more ram, as it is cheap and the amount of time you will spend configging is not worth it
[02:46] <akiva-mobile> than if you went and instead just did a few hours overtime
[02:47] <akiva-mobile> advx_, but if you are really determined, you might want to look into the window decorator first
[02:47] <advx_> ok
[02:47] <advx_> hmm
[02:47] <chro> I can tell you one. When I see something on full screen, and then escape, I cannot see the ubuntu launch bar anymore, neither the top bar
[02:47] <advx_> ok will do
[02:47] <akiva-mobile> advx_, but by playing around in compiz, you are risking stability
[02:47] <willwh> chro: that is not a bug report
[02:47] <akiva-mobile> especially with window managers.
[02:47] <advx_> thanks for Info
[02:47] <willwh> that is a poor description of a vague problem
[02:48] <akiva-mobile> chro, what distro are you running?
[02:48] <advx_> basically I m running ubuntu 13.10 on INTEL NUC DN2820, 4GB RAM - for XBMC
[02:48] <chro> willwh: lots of users are having the same problem. Actually it was not me that reported that
[02:48] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, my ideas for unity are simple: the user should be able to move that bar anywhere: left, right, bottom, top.
[02:48] <willwh> chro: yep, I asked for a bug report
[02:48] <kostkon> chro, show us the bug report
[02:48] <JCM83> Is there any equivalent of Windows' "Flux" program, in Ubuntu? It seems to be a chron job to cyclically adjust monitor color and brightness to be more appropriate for the time of day. I know that I could do this myself but I'd rather just have the thing.
[02:48] <advx_> akiva-mobile, basically I m running ubuntu 13.10 on INTEL NUC DN2820, 4GB RAM - for XBMC
[02:48] <chro> the thing is that this was reported last year, and they haven't fixed it yet
[02:48] <chro> ok, 1 sec
[02:49] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, I would encourage you to contribute back to to the community, and share your ideas in the appropriate place. this channel is for support :P
[02:49] <willwh> JCM83: you mean this? http://justgetflux.com/linux.html
[02:49] <willwh> ;]
[02:49] <willwh> your google-fu is terrible :)
[02:49] <akiva-mobile> advx_, great,
[02:49] <advx_> akiva-mobile, thanks
[02:49] <advx_> in xchat is there n e way to auto complete user names??
[02:49] <chro> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1240595
[02:49] <JCM83> willwh - Yes I do!  Anyway my problem is not unity... It's the problem of deja-dup notifications. I would want to disable them, but I can't.
[02:50] <chro> check last comments from users on that bug
[02:50] <advx_> akiva-mobile, well some times XBMC hanges...
[02:50] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, have you looked in synaptic for a package related to that?
[02:50] <akiva-mobile> advx_, sec...
[02:51] <advx_> akiva-mobile, so was looking for logs, then I checked RAM its 4GB installed but shows 3.3
[02:51] <willwh> advx_: you're running a 32bit os
[02:51] <chro> "quite annoying and makes the OS feels buggy/unpolish, have to recommend linuxmint over ubuntu to friends"
[02:51] <advx_> willwh, nope 64 bit
[02:51] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, what should I look for?
[02:51] <willwh> really?
[02:51] <willwh> then that is odd
[02:51] <akiva-mobile> advx_, sec I think I have the same thing
[02:51] <advx_> ok
[02:52] <akiva-mobile> advx_, I am pretty sure its just a marketing thing. For example, my 60 gig ipon is actually only 54 gigs or something like that
[02:52] <willwh> idk, I have 8gb, reported as 7.8
[02:52] <akiva-mobile> because we are dealing with 8 byte
[02:52] <JCM83> advx_: Is the problem that you're like, losing 0.7gb of RAM?
[02:52] <akiva-mobile> type free -m in a terminal
[02:53] <akiva-mobile> 3653  is my total for a 4 gig system
[02:53] <advx_> JCM83, well its just I m not able to trace where that .7GB ram is
[02:53] <kostkon> chro, so it's been fixed in 14.04 but hasn't been backported to 13.10
[02:53] <advx_> akiva-mobile,  then also its showing 3. something
[02:53] <chro> kostkon: seems so
[02:53] <akiva-mobile> advx_, what does the total say in the terminal?
[02:54] <chro> so we have to wait 6 months with the desktop broken
[02:54] <akiva-mobile> press <ctrl> <alt> + "T"
[02:54] <kostkon> chro, .. so far. never say never.
[02:54] <akiva-mobile> advx_, ^
[02:54] <willwh> chro: no, you could patch it yourself
[02:54] <akiva-mobile> advx_, and then type "free -m"
[02:54] <willwh> chro: or pay someone to do it, if it annoys you that much
[02:54] <sepix> how goes all
[02:55] <willwh> or switch windows managers
[02:55] <willwh> there are a lot of options
[02:55] <willwh> window*
[02:55] <willwh> ok I'm out o/
[02:55] <sepix> what broke for you guys?
[02:55] <chro> kostkon: the true is that ubuntu is not that stable and polished, and who says otherwise is lying... I wanted to believe in that myself, but this is too much for me
[02:55] <willwh> nothing, I just idle here o/
[02:55] <willwh> lol
[02:56] <akiva-mobile> chro, ubuntu is very stable for me. You are running 13.10
[02:56] <amigamagic> akiva-mobile, do you think there is a synaptic package that could disable notifications from one app?
[02:56] <akiva-mobile> chro, if you want stability you should run 12.04
[02:56] <bill337152> im using the open source drivers for my radeon 4000 card.  I'm using the regular release
[02:56] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic,  synaptic for whatever reason has a broader display of available packages.
[02:56] <kostkon> !language | essar
[02:56] <essar> I ask here because I just switched to ubuntu and did not witness this magic on previous distro
[02:57] <essar> ubottu: haha, sorry, I'm just really confused :)
[02:57] <akiva-mobile> chro, you said 13.10
[02:57] <essar> derp!
[02:57] <akiva-mobile> chro, those have a 6 month support cycle.
[02:57] <advx_> akiva-mobile, free -m gives total of 3409
[02:57] <akiva-mobile> chro, the lts's have a multi year
[02:57] <kostkon> akiva-mobile, 9
[02:57] <akiva-mobile> advx_, okay sec
[02:58] <akiva-mobile> advx_, yah for me I have 3653
[02:58] <chro> akiva-mobile: I know. But the 6month support cycle is the normal release... It should not be for testing
[02:58] <akiva-mobile> advx_, so its not really that abnormal.
[02:58] <advx_> akiva-mobile, N e idea where our 700MB ram is??
[02:58] <advx_> ok
[02:58] <pfifo> advx_: my 2GB laptop reports 1729 in free -m
[02:58] <akiva-mobile> advx_, its not like that.
[02:58] <ice9> how to get the wifi card firmware from the running system?
[02:58] <advx_> pfifo, hmm who is using rest of the ram
[02:58] <akiva-mobile> advx_, because the way that the hardware manufacturers count is strange
[02:59] <advx_> akiva-mobile, what H/W r u on ?
[02:59] <akiva-mobile> advx_, because remember that a byte is base 8
[02:59] <pfifo> advx_: that 700MB of ram is getting lost in the math
[02:59] <akiva-mobile> advx_, thinkpad x230
[02:59] <akiva-mobile> pfifo, ^ exactly
[02:59] <advx_> hmm
[03:00] <advx_> may be, that thought came across my mind too
[03:00] <akiva-mobile> advx_, like sometimes, 8 bits constitutes 1 byte, instead of what is more intuitive, that 10 bits = 1 byte
[03:00] <akiva-mobile> well not sometimes, I just mean in how they count
[03:00] <advx_> well did all that in my Engg. days..
[03:00] <advx_> may b its used up by graphics...
[03:01] <akiva-mobile> so if someone said you have 4 bytes, it will only read up as 32 bits
[03:01] <kostkon> advx_, normally it would show 3.7, but as i said, probably the rest is used by your graphics card
[03:01] <akiva-mobile> advx_, make sense?
[03:01] <advx_> n e way to specifically see how much is dedicated to graphics
[03:01] <akiva-mobile> advx_, that is true too
[03:01] <advx_> on MB i have set 512MB for graphics..
[03:01] <advx_> may b thats y
[03:02] <akiva-mobile> chro, sorry getting back to you
[03:02] <advx_> Also I m having low voltage RAM 1.3volts only
[03:02] <akiva-mobile> chro, its not a testing platform in the way an alpha or beta is
[03:02] <essar> cool, turns out the odd combination of "urxvt has transparency enabled" and "$TERM is not set to the right thing" makes my home key not work; all is well
[03:02] <akiva-mobile> but it still is testing new technologies to help them mature for stable releases.
[03:02] <akiva-mobile> this is why mir is coming in 14.10
[03:02] <chro> ok
[03:03] <chro> what is mir?
[03:03] <akiva-mobile> chro, its the replacement for x11
[03:03] <chro> oh yes, I heard about it
[03:03] <akiva-mobile> chro, a really important piece of software, long overdue
[03:03] <akiva-mobile> yah, wayland being its counterpart
[03:04] <pfifo> advx_: you have too look at the gb or GB, gb means<PHONE_NUMBER> bytes, GB means<PHONE_NUMBER> bytes
[03:04] <akiva-mobile> its specifically tailor made for the unity experience.
[03:05] <advx_> pfifo, will we r all looking for GB
[03:05] <pfifo> advx_: so hence, your chips manufacturer can omit 73741824 flipflops from the chip, and still get away with saying it is a 1 gig chip
[03:05] <akiva-mobile> chro, but anyways, if you found a bug, that is actually really important that you report it if it hasnt been done already to the unity team
[03:05] <chro> akiva-mobile: do you work for canonical?
[03:05] <akiva-mobile> chro, no
[03:05] <advx_> hmm pfifo all marketing gimmic
[03:05] <chro> ok
[03:05] <akiva-mobile> chro, this upcoming lts is extremely important that we make sure its stable
[03:06] <kostkon> advx_, same with hard disks
[03:06] <advx_> so True, kostkon
[03:06] <akiva-mobile> chro, do you know where to report bugs?
[03:06] <chro> ok, would it be easy to convert my system to a lts release?
[03:06] <akiva-mobile> chro, I always recommend fresh install
[03:06] <kostkon> chro, upgrade to 14.04 when it comes out
[03:06] <akiva-mobile> 14.04 will be coming out in a few weeks
[03:07] <amigamagic> when there will be the next LTS version?
[03:07] <chro> ok
[03:07] <akiva-mobile> amigamagic, few weeks
[03:07] <cfhowlett> !lts|amigamagic,
[03:07] <amigamagic> I'm now on 12.04 LTS
[03:07] <pfifo> advx_: actually its not a marketing gimmick, its manufacturing process, when the die is laid out for the chip, it might not be feasable to put exacly X amount of semiconductors on it, but calling it a 1gig chip is more intutivae than calling it a 0.854374 chip
[03:08] <amigamagic> but there are some things that don't work for my motherboard, like the suspend option that is missing
[03:08] <akiva-mobile> pfifo, what? Of course its a marketing gimmick :P
[03:08] <pfifo> ok its a marketing gimmick
[03:08] <akiva-mobile> pfifo, :P
[03:08] <cfhowlett> akiva-mobile, hardware marketing discussion should be in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:09] <kostkon> amigamagic, suspend or hibernate?
[03:09] <amigamagic> suspend
[03:09] <amigamagic> for hibernate I managed to make it work
[03:10] <amigamagic> but suspend doesn't work, because I suspect the ACPI of my motherboard is not recognized by the linux kernel
[03:10] <akiva-mobile> chro, Anyways, if you are interested in contributing to the ubuntu project, and perhaps are not a programmer, just focus on filing really good bug reports at https://launchpad.net/
[03:11] <amigamagic> I think I found a solution for disabling notifications from deja-dup: http://askubuntu.com/questions/56390/is-it-possible-to-block-notifyosd-for-one-application/192689#192689
[03:11] <WizardGed> hey, have a teensy problem in 14.04 guys.
[03:11] <chro> that's what I've been doing

[03:11] <z1haze> can anyone help me out, maybe you've had this issue? i just got a new computer, with 2 identical monitors, but only 1 is bein recognized as its name, the other is named generic non-pnp monitor, and it will not support the same resolution as the named one.. its pissing me off
[03:12] <chro> :)
[03:12] <amigamagic> I tried Kubuntu 13.10 and it was not much stable to me, so I hope the next ubuntu releases will be better
[03:12] <akiva-mobile> z1haze, what version you running?
[03:12] <akiva-mobile> z1haze, and what graphics card are you running?
[03:13] <z1haze> amd raedeom r7 200
[03:13] <z1haze> raedeon*
[03:13] <akiva-mobile> z1haze, which ubuntu version?
[03:13] <z1haze> its not ubuntu, you should know this

[03:14] <akiva-mobile> !ot | z1haze
[03:15] <ice9> how to increase vram for intel hd?
[03:15] <cfhowlett> z1haze, open a terminal and run the following command.  lsb_release -a
[03:15] <z1haze> im not on ubuntu, it was just a typical question. people here are knowledgable i was hoping i coudl get some help
[03:16] <ShutterBC> z1haze, display handling can differ across distributions
[03:16] <z1haze> i have 2 identical monitors, one is working fine, the other is saying generic non pnp
[03:16] <akiva-mobile> z1haze, what os are you using?
[03:16] <z1haze> win7
[03:16] <pfifo> z1haze: what kind of cables?
[03:16] <cfhowlett> z1haze, if you don't provide information when asked, you are not providing info to help solve the problem
[03:16] <akiva-mobile> *facepalm
[03:17] <ShutterBC> :)
[03:17] <z1haze> one is vga, and the other is dvi-d to hdmi
[03:17] <cfhowlett> z1haze, open a terminal.  run this command    lsb_release -a
[03:17] <akiva-mobile> !windows
[03:17] <z1haze> akiva, stfu man
[03:17] <pfifo> z1haze: there is your problem, only dvi and hdmi support pnp, vga does NOT
[03:17] <cfhowlett> z1haze, stop that now.
[03:17] <z1haze> well hes annoying, spamming me bot stuff
[03:17] <cfhowlett> !attitude|z1haze,
[03:18] <Keith_> does anyone know of a way to completely remove all of the scopes from the dash
[03:18] <z1haze> pfifo, thanks for that input though
[03:18] <cfhowlett> z1haze, READ the messages from the bots.
[03:18] <z1haze> that makes sense, so how would i get it to work how it should with vga?
[03:19] <cfhowlett> !scopes|Keith_,
[03:19] <pfifo> z1haze: manually change your resolution with the GPU's vendors software
[03:19] <z1haze> alright thanks pfifo, ill check that out, i suppose it should be in the catalyst control center?
[03:19] <ShutterBC> actually I wouldn't be entirely suprised if the DVI / HDMI one is the one not being recognized
[03:20] <z1haze> let me check actually, just to know, nope the vga is the issue
[03:20] <z1haze> the dvi-d/hdmi is reading 1080
[03:20] <kostkon> z1haze, are you runnign ubuntu?
[03:20] <ShutterBC> but yeah this is definitely not the best channel for specific help.  It is a common issue though
[03:21] <ShutterBC> so if you don't find your answer through something like this: https://www.google.com/search?q=windows+won%27t+recognize+display+over+vga+cable
[03:21] <akiva-mobile> kostkon, no he is running windows
[03:21] <akiva-mobile> win7 to be precise.
[03:21] <ShutterBC> then try #windows
[03:21] <cfhowlett> kostkon, I asked repeatedly but he won't specify the OS
[03:21] <kostkon> z1haze, this is a ubuntu support channel
[03:22] <tacorwin> So, would anyone happen to know of an Ambiance theme that works with GNOME Shell and GTK3+ for Ubuntu Gnome 13.10? I kinda don't like the whole "Adwaita" theme too much...
[03:22] <z1haze> i know guys, i know, ive been here for help before on my dedi servers, so i know u all are intelligent
[03:22] <z1haze> i didnt think it was cause a nuclear explosion for me to ask a question thats not related to ubuntu directly
[03:22] <IdleOne> z1haze: so you also know that this channel is for Ubuntu support and not a general help channel?
[03:22] <z1haze> hey akiva, you ever get a job yet?
[03:22] <cfhowlett> z1haze, you're in the wrong channel.  please go to #windows for windows support.  thank you.
[03:23] <z1haze> :)
[03:23] <Keith_> one other thing a need to know is how do you create custom launchers in ubuntu there is no option on the desktop
[03:23] <z1haze> i tried that obviously,
[03:23] <akiva-mobile> !ot|z1haze
[03:23] <pfifo> im taking the laptop to my fallout shelter now, incase there is a nuclear explosion
[03:23] <cfhowlett> z1haze, we will not support windows in the ubuntu channel. that is alll.
[03:23] <ShutterBC> lol pfifo
[03:25] <ShutterBC> here's an ubuntu question -- anyone here using ubuntu server as a NAS controller?
[03:25] <cfhowlett> ShutterBC, might want to ask the #ubuntu-server channel
[03:25] <pfifo> I know a few that are
[03:25] <z1haze> pfifo, that worked! thanks so much
[03:26] <ice9> how to edit bios file?
[03:27] <tacorwin> Sorry to post the same thing again (i think it got lost in the recent commotion lol) But, would anyone happen to know of an Ambiance theme that works with GNOME Shell and GTK3+ for Ubuntu Gnome 13.10? I kinda don't like the whole "Adwaita" theme too much...
[03:27] <advx_> ok bye 4 now, Thanks a lot for all Help
[03:27] <advx_> n e one for TEA??
[03:27] <advx_> bye
[03:28] <ShutterBC> ice9, what are you trying to do with bios?
[03:29] <ice9> ShutterBC: I want to edit the vram value
[03:30] <ShutterBC> ice9, so you want to increase VRAM assigned for Intel HD video
[03:30] <ice9> ShutterBC: yes
[03:30] <bicgena> My laptop display no longer goes to to sleep despite having it set to go to sleep about after 5 minutes of inactivity in "Power Management Preferences". Could someone help me troubleshoot this issue?
[03:32] <markusdbx> I'm looking for a standalone youtube application that still works good. Any ideas?
[03:33] <TerranceWarrior> What do you use hardware and software under linux to record synth audio out? I have a mobile pre interface but it doesn't appear to work unless it's only sending signals to the usb. (i have yet to hook it up to the laptop)
[03:33] <cfhowlett> markusdbx, plenty of options in your software cente4r
[03:33] <akurilin> Can you guys recommend a way to rip audio from a flash-based app in the browser? I want to put a bunch of talks on my phone as mp3s, but right now they're behind this flash app online.
[03:33] <cfhowlett> TerranceWarrior, ask in #ubuntustudio
[03:33] <cfhowlett> TerranceWarrior, or #opensourcemusicians
[03:34] <markusdbx> cfhowlett: any particular app that you can recommend?
[03:34] <ShutterBC> ice9, you don't need to edit bios file.  you need to boot into bios (usually hit del or f1 key during POST at startup)
[03:34] <yhgz> html5 is your best answer.
[03:34] <cfhowlett> markusdbx, no but you can sort the list by ratings
[03:34] <ShutterBC> or, set memory in xorg.conf.  see this: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/saucy/en/man4/intel.4.html
[03:34] <ice9> ShutterBC: I don't have that option in BIOS to select
[03:34] <ra4king> Hello!
[03:35] <ra4king> since #ssh is dead, I'll ask here
[03:35] <ra4king> anyway to only allow localhost to use password authentication for SSH?
[03:35] <ra4king> currently I have it off
[03:35] <cfhowlett> akurilin, firefox has a download helper plugin that will pull flash audio and video
[03:36] <wanggs>   hello
[03:36]  * wanggs   hello
[03:36] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, hey
[03:36] <kostkon> markusdbx, what about minitube?
[03:37] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, you want to rip audio from a flash file?
[03:37] <pfifo> ra4king: im pretty sure openssh server supports hosts.allow and hosts.deny
[03:37] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, have you tried youtube-dl? It supports a lot of flash video sites
[03:37] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, and you can set it to download just the audio
[03:37] <ra4king> pfifo: ah, haven't heard of that
[03:38] <ShutterBC> ra4king, so in other words you're trying to deny password auth for external connections
[03:38] <ra4king> yes
[03:38] <ra4king> as I have services running internally to my server that need to access SSH but I don't want to give them my private key
[03:39] <akurilin> cfhowlett, akiva-mobile I double-checked what site this is on, this is on anymeeting.com
[03:39] <pfifo> ra4king: youll have to research it yourself, i dont know much more than the fact that it exists 'man hosts_access'
[03:39] <akurilin> they have their own streaming client in flash
[03:39] <ra4king> thanks
[03:39] <ra4king> I just needed a base to google with, as all wordings I've tried haven't worked
[03:39] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, there is a good chance that youtube-dl supports it. Try this :
[03:39] <kostkon> akurilin, your best bet is the download helper ffox plugin
[03:39] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, open up a terminal, ctrl alt t, and type "sudo apt-get install youtube-dl"
[03:40] <ShutterBC> ra4king, have you looked at all the options available in sshd_config?
[03:40] <ra4king> ShutterBC: no
[03:40] <pfifo> ra4king: disregard what i was suggesting, it wont do what you described.
[03:40] <ra4king> pfifo: yup seems like it
[03:40] <akurilin> Ok I'll check these options out
[03:40] <ra4king> adding something hosts.allow will disallow everybody else
[03:41] <kostkon> akurilin, you general purposes there is also this app https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/allvideodownloader/
[03:41] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, yep, and once you have youtube-dl, test it out by doing this "youtube-dl urlofthevideo"
[03:41] <ShutterBC> ra4king, you want to configure certificate based auth, essentially.  looking up sshd_config and certificate based authentication should help
[03:41] <kostkon> for/you*
[03:41] <akiva-mobile> akurilin, if it works you can explore the numerous options of youtube-dl after.
[03:41] <ShutterBC> or rather host based authentication
[03:41] <ra4king> found something! http://askubuntu.com/questions/101670/how-can-i-allow-ssh-password-authentication-from-only-certain-ip-addresses
[03:42] <ra4king> how is this ^^?
[03:43] <ShutterBC> ra4king, pretty good.  I'd definitely run local console while testing this obviously
[03:43] <ra4king> ShutterBC: local console?
[03:44] <ShutterBC> yeah just in case you accidentally deny all ssh connections
[03:44] <ra4king> oh yeah :D
[03:44] <ShutterBC> I've remotely configured ssh on servers before and prayed I didn't make a mistake :)
[03:44] <ra4king> ShutterBC: well what do you know
[03:44] <ra4king> I just did that
[03:44] <ra4king> opened a new bash shell and tried SSH-ing in..... denied
[03:44]  * ra4king facepalms
[03:45] <enali> I run 'ri socket::accept', get 'no matches found'. why? I have gem install rdoc rdoc-data
[03:45] <kostkon> enali, ruby related?
[03:46] <ShutterBC> ra4king, at least you can try again.  oh and you can run sshd in foreground mode with verbose output to speed up testing
[03:47] <ShutterBC> (or just tail the log)
[03:47] <ra4king> jesus
[03:47] <ra4king> so much to learn
[03:47] <ra4king> ShutterBC: foreground mode?
[03:47] <ra4king> :D
[03:47] <ShutterBC> uh, lemme see if I remember how... sshd -dD I think
[03:49] <drama> boop
[03:49] <enali> ruby 2.1.1
[03:49] <dcmg> i did it, the fabled mastahcrunch
[03:49] <dcmg> https://gist.github.com/Statix/9718418
[03:50] <dcmg> just look at that and loool
[03:50] <enali> I just can use ri to get rails' help, such as from ActiveRecord
[03:50] <ra4king> goddamn, this doesn't work
[03:50] <ra4king> using Match
[03:50]  * dcmg bows
[03:51] <enali> but can't get help about ruby self
[03:51] <dcmg> I've got a PHD in crunchgenology
[03:51] <enali> ri Socket.new, will not success
[03:51] <enali> anyone help
[03:52] <ra4king> HELL YES it worked
[03:52] <ShutterBC> :)
[03:52] <ra4king> ShutterBC: using Match address <IP_ADDRESS> worked!
[03:52] <ShutterBC> sweet
[03:52] <ra4king> my local service was able to SSH with password :D
[03:53] <ShutterBC> dcmg, crunched is all of those tools contained in the binary?  and you can call it recursively for kicks?
[03:54] <ra4king> and using SSH from my remote computer with private key is rejected :D
[03:54] <ra4king> thank you all
[03:54] <dcmg> ShutterBC: exactly, "cruched" is the default name of the bainry ``crunchgen'' spits out
[03:55] <dcmg> "crunched" *
[03:55] <dcmg> ShutterBC: generally a system uses a series of links going to it. in place of a normal set of utilities
[03:56] <dcmg> the odd thing is the sheer size of the one I made. It has nearly everything :p
[03:56] <dcmg> but thats what happens when you've got the twerk
[03:57]  * dcmg twerks
[03:59] <dcmg> ShutterBC: but yes, you can call it like "crunched dd" or "crunched chmod"
[03:59] <dcmg> just a little tedious
[04:00] <dcmg> ./crunched dd  *
[04:01] <dcmg> oops im on the wrong channel
[04:01] <dcmg> lol sorry you guys
[04:01] <dcmg> ShutterBC: crunchgen is like the busybox of the *BSD world
[04:10] <ShutterBC> dcmg, I'm accustomed to busybox. well thanks for the intro anyway
[04:14] <jbates58> @rspinuz. sorry mate. just wasnt sure if it was seen,
[04:14] <jbates58> hi all. i am looking to setup a spare machine i have as a ubuntu firewall/router for my home network. my plan is to use it like so. have the ubuntu machine as a centra backup location where all of our computer data syncs to, run my download clients on it and use it to stream media to the house (if possible). but i also want it to be able to limit both the quota and speed of data to the download
[04:14] <jbates58> clients running on the same machine. is this possible? am i able to make a virtual network adaptor, and have the downloader use that, and then limit that ip? or does it not work like that? i am interested in learning how this all works and providing an extra layer of security to my network. not that it has ever been broken into, its only a home connection.
[04:15] <slyrus> grumble... trying to upgrade to trusty tahr and I get "could not calculate the upgrade". I'm guessing this is because I have a locally built and installed kernel. and I purged the 13.10 kernels. is there an easy way to restore them?
[04:15] <Flannel> slyrus: You should ask in #ubuntu+1, there could be some issue with the upgrade right now.
[04:16] <slyrus> thanks flannel
[04:16] <cfhowlett> slyrus, I believe sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will pull the latest standard kernel
[04:16] <shadykhan> Does anyone here use Sublime text 2 here?
[04:17] <mrfister> shadykhan: yrs
[04:17] <kostkon> !anyone
[04:17] <kostkon> !details | shadykhan
[04:17] <slyrus> cfhowlett: doesn't seem to. It's possible I purged it and it doesn't reinstall it. had too many kernels lying around. whoops.
[04:18] <shadykhan> In sublime text 2 on windows there was this feature where if you click and hold the scroll wheel you can select multiple lines is there a way to do it on Ubuntu?
[04:18] <mrfister> shadykhan: yes
[04:20] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[04:21] <lotuspsychje> i cant get wifi enabled on a medion netbook with wifi chipset ralink rt2970, wifi in bios is set to 'last state' and wifi icon shows grey: wifi disabled any clues?
[04:22] <lotuspsychje> i tryed 12.04, 13.10 and lubuntu, all say wifi disabled
[04:22] <rspinuz> jbates58: Are you there?
[04:23] <jbates58> yeah mate. sorry, i accidently put the wrong text in. i have been out for lunch and went back through the logs, and there was no responses. so i thought that i would ask again if anyone new has joined the channel.
[04:23] <rspinuz> jbates58: Do you mind a pm?
[04:24] <jbates58> no mate. pm away.
[04:25] <TerranceWarrior> cfhowlett: success.
[04:25] <TerranceWarrior> cfhowlett: thank you!
[04:25] <cfhowlett> TerranceWarrior, glad to help.  be safe, have fun
[04:32] <alteregoa> is drm-intel kernel only for intel, does it have some radeon patches too?
[04:38] <rspinuz> Hi cfhowlett
[04:38] <cfhowlett> rspinuz, greetings
[04:49] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: I am still stuck at that CD-ROM issue. lsscsi lists it but when I insert any CD it doesn't read it. lsmod doesn't show any module that seems to support CD-ROM either. /etc/modules don't have any modules that are relevant either. Do I need to insmod some module?Any hints?
[04:54] <red_> i have a file file.tar.gz how to install it ?
[04:56] <plasma> red_: its some source code?
[04:56] <plasma> red_: first you need to unpack it
[04:56] <plasma> red_: for example using a terminal, tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[04:56] <red_> plasma :I have unpacked now in desktop
[04:56] <red_> after that
[04:56] <red_> ls
[04:56] <plasma> it is some sourcecode?
[04:57] <willwh> ./configure && make && sudo make install
[04:57] <red_> no its install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[04:57] <willwh> if it is
[04:57] <plasma> then just ./install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[04:57] <willwh> err, chmod +x install_......
[04:57] <red_> (install_flash_player_11_linux.i386)
[04:57] <plasma> or maybe before what willwh says
[04:57] <lotuspsychje> i cant get wifi enabled on a medion netbook with wifi chipset ralink rt2970, wifi in bios is set to 'last state' and wifi icon shows grey: wifi disabled any clues?
 i tryed 12.04, 13.10 and lubuntu, all say wifi disabled
[04:58] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, I know this is an obvious question but it happened to me once
[04:58] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, but did you accidently switch it off on your laptop?
[04:58] <akiva-mobile> the physical switch I mean?
[04:58] <red_> plasma :after that
[04:59] <red_> now i am in /Desktop/install_flash_player_11_linux.i386$
[04:59] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: I thought you did not want to use your cd rom?
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: there is no physical switch mate, just bios disable/last state
[04:59] <plasma> chmod +x install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[04:59] <plasma> ./install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[04:59] <plasma> just these 2 lines
[04:59] <plasma> but
[04:59] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, are you sure? Most laptops have a switch somewhere on the side.
[04:59] <rww> !flash
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: also i can Fn+F7 to enable/disable but that doesnt fix either
[04:59] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: I would like to use it
[05:00] <rspinuz> plasma: you can also just run  sh install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[05:00] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: this model doesnt got switch
[05:00] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, o_O what model?
[05:00] <plasma> or the way rspinuz says
[05:00] <rspinuz> no need to chmod first
[05:00] <red_>  sh install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[05:00] <plasma> in the end its the same
[05:00] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: medion akoya netbook e1211
[05:00] <red_> no such file or directory
[05:01] <rww> except one is package managed and one isn't
[05:01] <rspinuz> red_: /file/path/to/script/install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[05:01] <rspinuz> red_: sh /file/path/to/script/install_flash_player_11_linux.i386
[05:01] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: lspci -C network actually sees the wifi chipset and driver loaded
[05:01] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: but cant get it enabled somehow
[05:01] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, its just really strange....
[05:02] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: you said you did a fresh install correct?
[05:02] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, sorry not meaning to be offensive here, but are you absolutely sure there is no switch, not like under the battery or something?
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i get ipv6 warning in logs and wifi drops
[05:02] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, oh you get temporary wifi?
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: yes ive searched everywhere
[05:03] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, has wifi worked before?
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i saw wifi networks once (after first setup) then reboot and never got it on again
[05:03] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, very strange...
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: cant see hardware switch nowhere either
[05:04] <rspinuz> akiva-mobile: Disable ipv6 for that connection then restart the network service and try again
[05:04] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, you said you looked in the bios; it was not switched off there was it?
[05:04] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, just covering the obvious issues; :P
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: tryed all options in bios, can choose between: disabled and 'last state'
[05:05] <rspinuz> I meant my message for lotuspsychje
[05:05] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, last state? That is just wierd.
[05:05] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: Yes, I installed it not too long ago, but it did go through couple of manual kernel upgrades
[05:05] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: yes thats some weird option on medion computers lol
[05:06] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, hate to say this, but did you try it with windows?
[05:06] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: Did you use the same drive to install?
[05:06] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: the netbook has xp as default Os, there it works fine
[05:06] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: live-usb was used
[05:06] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, but never on linux?
[05:07] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: once after setup with eth cable, but after reboot gone..
[05:07] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, and you tried 3 distrobutions?
[05:07] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: 12.04 and 13.10 and lubuntu 13.10
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: they all give me grey text in wifi icone: wifi network disabled
[05:08] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: lspci | pastebinit
[05:08] <akiva-mobile> o_o
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: no additional drivers open neither..
[05:09] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, can you try to get back the wifi list by using the ethernet trick again?
[05:09] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, or alternatively, cna you get wifi with a livecd?
[05:09] <akiva-mobile> a live desktop*
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: wifi shows grey: wifi disabled already in the live usb
[05:10] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: http://pastebin.com/XwwXixVy
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i have been forced to use eth cable
[05:10] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, is there any bios upgrades you can do it?
[05:10] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: do the same thing for your scsi devices
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: didnt try that yet
[05:10] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: Please and thank you
[05:10] <GeekAdmin> I use a dedicated server for hosting my site via ssh running 3.11.0-12-generic. WHat  are your best recommendation to create automatic backups to another server (via scp of sftp or something.)?  I understand how to use cron and basic bash.
[05:11] <akiva-mobile> or bios refreshes? I mean what I think you need to do, is try it with xp, see if it still works
[05:11] <akiva-mobile> and if it doesnt then we know its an ubuntu issue
[05:11] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: rsync over ssh
[05:11] <GeekAdmin> ALso  I usually just script up my local backup of site folder...what do you guys do?
[05:11] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: rsync with ssh (sorry)
[05:11] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: xp works fine on the wifi, maybe its some weird software managing wifi for windows only?
[05:11] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, but you havnt tried it since ubuntu
[05:11] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: I do the same as you
[05:12] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz ok I need to learn rsync.  You are 3rd person to recommend.  It has to be the best
[05:12] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, like you may have experienced a hardware failure between now and then.
[05:12] <GeekAdmin> rsync have encryption like scp?
[05:12] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz:http://pastebin.com/6cCznmrW
[05:12] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i dont think so mate
[05:12] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: It keeps your files synced and only backups the new or modified files
[05:12] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: yes that is why I said with ssh
[05:13] <rspinuz> it will use scp
[05:13] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, well, if multiple kernels are not working,
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: rfkill list shows also its softblocked and i cant get it unblocked
[05:13] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, wow interesting
[05:13] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: Give me a second let me try and find something for you
[05:13] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz: much appreciated
[05:14] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: No problem
[05:14] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz: umm so rsync fior remote backup that is like a mirror....?
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: sudo rfkill unblock all, does nothing
[05:14] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, may be worth looking at sys logs;
[05:14] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: No
[05:14] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz: This is a small site with only text changing on regular basis.
[05:15] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz I like having backups liek weekly or daily
[05:15] <rspinuz> then it will always be working
[05:15] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz: for at least 6 months
[05:15] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz hut this is a dedictated server. and I shouldnt have to instal  cpanel or something should I? cuz thats lame
[05:15] <rspinuz> GeekAdmin: Just to do backups?
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: syslogs give me that ipv6 adr wifi drop warning
[05:16] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz:  No I work on sites, I like having backups of the site through build process especially
[05:17] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, dmesg
[05:17] <rspinuz> KyouReeUs4nfo_: cat /proc/scsi/scsi | pastebinit    and    dmesg | pastebinit
[05:17] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz: Its reallly handy when something goes wrong too, like, I can go back 2 hours ago and see. the problem wasnt then....then use diff....
[05:17] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, do you get anything from that?
[05:17] <GeekAdmin> rspinuz you get the point
[05:17] <SchrodingersScat> !info rsnapshot | GeekAdmin
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: yes that where i found the ipv6 adrconf wifi drop
[05:18] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat THanks!
[05:18] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat rhat might be it
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: something like this: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0:
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> link is not ready
[05:19] <KyouReeUs4nfo_> rspinuz:http://pastebin.com/z7kr68c4
[05:20] <GeekAdmin> the default web root is /var/www which I hate but had trouble changing correctly to my non root account
[05:20] <SchrodingersScat> GeekAdmin: worth reading into if you haven't heard about it before.
[05:20] <GeekAdmin> so I'm stuck using sudo vim index.php
[05:20] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, honestly I would check if it is a hardware issue first by retrying xp. otherwise, I am not so experienced with kernel diving to tell you anything you don't know yet
[05:21] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat: Its not like some package a dude made in a day and never updated? loll
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: well it would be very strange 3 ubuntu versions load the same module and would be wrong right?
[05:21] <SchrodingersScat> !permissions | GeekAdmin
[05:21] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, it is strange that it worked, and then it never worked again.
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: not so experienced myself on the kernel and module thing
[05:22] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat Only because their Ubuntu link is down
[05:22] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, I don't mind getting into it with you, but to confirm the issue first would be best
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i dont think it broke, rather i think this is a weird medion issue, only listening to medion wifi software?
[05:23] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, yah that is another possibility
[05:23] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat: I understand the basics of file permissions. lol jerk.
[05:23]  * GeekAdmin slaps SchrodingersScat around a bit with a large trout.
[05:23] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, its a french netbook after all. But for it to work even once then does not make sense
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i know thats so weird
[05:24] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat: but I want to move it to /home/cameron/publuc_html
[05:24] <SchrodingersScat> GeekAdmin: looks like it was updated several years ago maybe
[05:24] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, netbooks :P how sucky. Thing is though, ubuntu shows it working before
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: anyway many tnx for your support
[05:24] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, you could try getting into ndiswrapper
[05:24] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat which also involves editing apache config files I cant seem to get to work right. Man has apache changed
[05:24] <akiva-mobile> if you really want to torture yourself
[05:25] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat I stayed away for too long
[05:25] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: my acer netbook with ssd works flawless :p
[05:25] <SchrodingersScat> GeekAdmin: I would probably just make a symlink, but I also don't know your end goal.
[05:25] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: also tryed to load that module with ndiswrapper but no luck
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: maybe ill buy a cheap usb wifi that loads out of the box
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: not sure if its relevant, but battery broke so only adapter power works
[05:27] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: tryed also to disabled wlan0 power management, but no luck
[05:27] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat: I think I'm going to write on my desktop a bash script that uses scp to make a backup every 12 hours....then after 4 months is deletes the old backups.  This is a small site.
[05:27] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat But then you have to store the password ina  file and Its a pain to get to work
[05:27] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScatL I was never able to get scp to work with a stored encrypted pass
[05:28] <SchrodingersScat> GeekAdmin: you can't use keys? ; oh, then sounds like that's your question.
[05:29] <GeekAdmin> not right now.  Second I'm on Etizolam which is basically Xannax but totally unscheduled in the USA.
[05:29] <GeekAdmin> so legal
[05:30] <SchrodingersScat> GeekAdmin: awesome.  I meant like this though: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys
[05:30] <GeekAdmin> its like xannax but made by god knows who when you get it. Its considered more addictive by a lot of people and has a shorter half life. SO I dont reocmmend it!
[05:30] <GeekAdmin> been a bitch to get off it
[05:31] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, sorry, dropping the kids off at the pool
[05:31] <SchrodingersScat> !offtopic | GeekAdmin , also !language
[05:31] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: cheers!
[05:31] <rww> for what it's worth, your unscheduled pills aren't really on-topic for #ubuntu-offtopic either
[05:31] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, battery broke?
[05:31] <GeekAdmin> SchrodingersScat: I'll use that ink thanks and sorry forbreaking rules I know. I"m messed up and shouldnt be here
[05:31] <GeekAdmin> peace
[05:31] <SchrodingersScat> rww: fair enough
[05:32] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: yes im on adapter power only
[05:32] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, well so your netbook is now stationary anyways
[05:32] <akiva-mobile> might be best to just use ethernet :P
[05:33] <akiva-mobile> if you can't move it away from a plug, don't really need wifi then do you :P
[05:33] <lotuspsychje> well the power cord is long to sit in seat :p
[05:33] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: ill find myself a cheap usb adapter
[05:34] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, anyways if the battery broke, I could imagine that the wifi broke too
[05:34] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: tnx for your support
[05:34] <akiva-mobile> yah good luck
[05:34] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: howso?
[05:34] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, how did the battery break?
[05:34] <akiva-mobile> maybe it shares some hardware.
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: well wifi did work on xp on the broken battery
[05:35] <akiva-mobile> ah :P okay well you are on your own then :p
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: but maybe ubuntu doesnt like that? maybe i should dconf and see other power options
[05:36] <akiva-mobile> lotuspsychje, installing xp doesnt take that long to just try it out
[05:36] <akiva-mobile> anyways
[05:36] <akiva-mobile> gl
[05:36] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: i will doublecheck ok!
[05:36] <lotuspsychje> akiva-mobile: tnx again
[05:44] <irrodeus> Hello everyone, I need help on GRUB configuration, anyone might help ? The problem is : whent the computer starts, GRUB does ALWAYS launch its shell instead of showing differents choices of OS, which are correctly detected by grub-mkconfig.
[05:45] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, which distro are you running
[05:45] <akiva-mobile> and when did you install it?
[05:46] <irrodeus> akiva : less than a week ago, elementaryOS (build on ubuntu). It's in dualboot with the pre-installed W8.
[05:46] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, hmmmm
[05:46] <rww> elementary OS issues go in #elementary, not here. You're probably looking for something in /etc/default/grub followed by sudo update-grub to apply changes.
[05:46] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, ^
[05:47] <Ceninant> It's a grub issue, not on elementary one. :-)
[05:47] <irrodeus> rww : i posted in #elementary but i thought of going here as it is a GRUB problem, not elementary.
[05:47] <irrodeus> Ceninant : :)
[05:47] <akiva-mobile> Ceninant, distros handle grubs diferently at install
[05:47] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, why elementry os specifically?
[05:47] <rww> Ceninant, irrodeus: doesn't matter. Our derivatives make changes to their software, and we have no way of keeping up with every change by every distro to know that they didn't change e.g. GRUB configuration.
[05:48] <irrodeus> akiva : i reinstalled GRUB multiple times with boot-repair, BTW. eOS was just a matter of interface, this is going for a non-tecchy friend of mine.
[05:48] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus,^ and maybe you might want to consider just installing ubuntu instead; Its grub configurations are extremely stable
[05:49] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, yah if he is non techy, you would be better off giving him ubuntu imo.
[05:49] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, and boot-repair; i have never had much luck with that.
[05:49] <irrodeus> akiva : would installing GRUB from the ubuntu liveCD, and not eOS live CD, change anything you think ?
[05:50] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, anyways this is not the channel for it, but my own pragmatic advice is that I always save time just doing a reinstall. Grub configuration is a rabbithole of sorts.
[05:50] <irrodeus> akiva : me neither. Actually it just screwed the windows boot option from the EFI.
[05:50] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, yah I think it would change something. If it does not, then you can get a lot of support in #ubuntu :)
[05:51] <irrodeus> akiva : i spent two hours and finally had to manually type the UUIDs of partitions on my first archlinux isntall. GRUB can be a so big pain sometimes...
[05:51] <akiva-mobile> but in so long as its an elementry os issue, mmmmm :) politely try #grub or #elementary
[05:51] <irrodeus> akiva : okay, thanks :) I'll take a try on Ubuntu this time.
[05:51] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, yep lol. I feel your pain
[05:51] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, good luck!
[05:52] <irrodeus> akiva : and secondary, i also needed help on the touchscreen not being tactile at all...
[05:52] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, when it was the old grub, it used to be a lot easier to mess around with. Since grub2 (?) - I gave up trying to manually configure.
[05:53] <irrodeus> The proprietary driver tool found nothing; i found no driver either on internet.
[05:53] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, on elementry os? If it was on ubuntu, that would be something we would definitely want to look in for the sake of unity
[05:53] <akiva-mobile> !autocomplete
[05:53] <irrodeus> akiva : here only the UEFI + the need to keep a dualboot makes this a pain... otherwise it would be much simpler
[05:54] <irrodeus> akiva : yup. But even, it isn't recognized even by linux, this is a driver problem
[05:54] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, ha ha, yah, I finally told my family members that if they want to run windows, I won't help them solve their problems. Ubuntu or bust.
[05:55] <akiva-mobile> Most just changed to ubuntu and decided libreoffice was good enough
[05:56] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, hmmm id be surprised if there was not some project to get a open sauce driver implimented for the kernel, but I don't know.
[05:57] <irrodeus> akiva : there are, but it seems to be an hours-long process to get it working, and it'll just produce an unstable system in the end i think..
[05:57]  * cfhowlett thinks mmmmmmm.  open sauce!
[05:58] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, are you a developer, or wanting to get into it?
[05:58] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, you could help write the driver
[06:00] <irrodeus> akiva : i could only provide the info and tests on a specific device. I'm a bit into programming but still needs to learn much more. However, i would love to help, where should i go for this ?
[06:00] <subscope> hi all
[06:01] <irrodeus> hi subscope
[06:02] <arc12> Hi. I try to tune into libreplant livestream but I get this error "No video with supported format or MIME type found. I get the same error for all 3 rooms' live stream. Please help?
[06:02] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, great question. I am a self taught programmer, and I can tell you that the first step is a bit of a hurdle, but getting over that, it tends to be smooth sailing
[06:03] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, and its a lot of fun.
[06:03] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, for ubuntu, learning qt is a great start
[06:04] <akiva-mobile> because that gets you into gui development, you learn a bit of c++ (Which if you can learn that, you can learn anything)
[06:04] <akiva-mobile> soe, I recomend to grab the ubuntu sdk from the software centre,
[06:05] <irrodeus> akiva-mobile: I did got into C and Python, currently studying programming but i'll shift to another school, as my actual learning program is shitty as hell
[06:05] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, ah very nice!
[06:05] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, what ide's are you using?
[06:05] <ryck> Hi. What does a red session menu means?
[06:05] <ryck> Normally it's white.
[06:05] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, I really like geany for python development.
[06:06] <akiva-mobile> or really general purpose.
[06:06] <akiva-mobile> and qtcreator for c, c++, and qt
[06:06] <irrodeus> akiva-mobile: code::blocks for C (haven't touched it for a while though, don't like it so much but runs good) and pycharm community for python.
[06:06] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, mmm yah, codeblocks is... codeblocks :P
[06:07] <irrodeus> akiva : But i got into python recently and haven't test that one yet, so i'll give it a ride :)
[06:07] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, if you want to join me and another fellow, we are currently doing the python challenge
[06:07] <akiva-mobile> collaboratively
[06:07] <irrodeus> akiva-mobile: http://www.pythonchallenge.com/ ?
[06:07] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, yep
[06:08] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, the reason I like geany and qtcreator predominantly is that it works well with ubuntu's hud
[06:08] <irrodeus> akiva-mobile: I'll be hardly free before the end of the month but it would be a joy
[06:08] <irrodeus> akiva-mobile: for everyday use i'm on ArchLinux.
[06:08] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, many ubuntu users never learn to use the hud, but it drastically increases your workflow
[06:09] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, I know arch linux users love their distro, and for good reason, but I really suggest people try unity for programming development
[06:09] <irrodeus> akiva-mobile: maybe we should take this conversation elsewhere, or we're going to flood the chat a bit x)
[06:09] <akiva-mobile> irrodeus, good idea
[06:12] <bajinlee> hi
[06:14] <kostkon> bajinlee, hi
[06:14] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, hello
[06:16] <bajinlee> what can i do with this Ubuntu studio
[06:16] <Guest74746> I am not able to sign in to any website like fb,google,github..etc using any browser on ubuntu 11.04
[06:16] <Guest74746> any solution
[06:17] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, pardon?
[06:17] <akiva-mobile> Guest74746, ubuntu 11.04 is no longer supported. I would suggest upgrading
[06:17] <bajinlee> i cannot solve my flash
[06:18] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, why do you need ubuntu-studio?
[06:18] <bajinlee> with Firefox
[06:18] <Beldar> !flash
[06:21] <bajinlee> how to download the flash from adobe?do i need a apt manager ?
[06:22] <Beldar> bajinlee, You don't https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash
[06:22] <OerHeks> bajinlee, just install flashplugin-installer
[06:24] <bajinlee> oh,thanks,maybe i have gotten it!
[06:26] <bajinlee> and how can i manage to get the studio to express in Chinese?
[06:29] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, ubuntu studio is less stable than ubuntu
[06:29] <bajinlee> oh?
[06:29] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, usually you download it if you need jack
[06:29] <akiva-mobile> at least in my experience
[06:29] <akiva-mobile> and its kernel is a bit different if I recall
[06:30] <bajinlee> sorry i do not know...
[06:30] <akiva-mobile> its best for professional audio developers who need the special use cases
[06:30] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, oh no need to be sorry :)
[06:31] <bajinlee> ha ha
[06:31] <bajinlee> thanks
[06:31] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, but again, do you need ubuntu studio for anything in particular? Or did you just install it because you casually enjoy audio editting?
[06:32] <bajinlee> i don't know,but i want to learn about it
[06:32] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, about ubuntu in general or ubuntu studio? Again, its tailored for post production
[06:34] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, like I would recommend ubuntu studio for people doing heavy audio editting,
[06:34] <bajinlee> oh
[06:35] <bajinlee> i get to know
[06:35] <akiva-mobile> !chinese
[06:35] <bajinlee> thanks!
[06:37] <akiva-mobile> bajinlee, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/RealTimeKernel
[06:38] <cfhowlett> bajinlee, let's talk privately
[06:41] <j4son> hi ha un lloc per al català?
[06:41] <j4son> if no I will try best with english that I know
[06:42] <akiva-mobile> j4son, sorry, was that french or spanish?
[06:43] <j4son> akiva-mobile: it's Catalan, closer to French than Spanish but a good blend between them both
[06:44] <akiva-mobile> j4son, ah wow...
[06:44] <akiva-mobile> !catalan
[06:44] <akiva-mobile> lol nope.
[06:44] <akiva-mobile> !french
[06:44] <akiva-mobile> !spanish
[06:44] <akiva-mobile> j4son, but if you want to try your english, what seems to be the issue?
[06:45] <irrodeus> j4son: you are in catalunya ? I'm not alone \o/
[06:45] <j4son> it's always good to find a 'local' :)
[06:45] <akiva-mobile> why does the count of monte cristo come to mind ...?
[06:45] <j4son> irrodeus: I am in Valencia but a close love for my parents in catalunya yes
[06:46] <irrodeus> j4son: i'm in perpignan, quite a distance even though :/
[06:46] <j4son> close enough, lovely place
[06:47] <irrodeus> j4son: but not a good one for studying computer science, not really.
[06:47] <j4son> yeah
[06:47] <j4son> I had to move from Girona to get some good study
[06:51] <j4son> girona<->perpignan is like 1 hour
[06:53] <j4son> I speak/write Occitan as well, I'd flip my lid if we could cossí te dises?
[06:54] <FuuqUmiist> hey guys
[06:59] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, hey
[07:01] <j4son> hi
[07:02] <Bluewolf> Hi all
[07:03] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, greetings.  what's your ubuntu issue?
[07:04] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: My install is still crashing - You know all about it :D
[07:06] <bokuno> Is it able to fix an Android phone whose inner-flash has been formatted with fdisk ? lsusb just shows a Qulacomm,inc. item.
[07:07] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: In fact I wanted to ask, I have reinstalled my computer completely with Windows without a problem and Linux Mint runs well off the CD. That being said could my Ubuntu Live CD be faulty?
[07:08] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, could be.  checksum the USB
[07:08] <cfhowlett> !md5sum
[07:09] <cfhowlett> bokuno, ask on #android
[07:10] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: Is that how I could check the CD to make sure it is indeed the problem before I burn another?
[07:10] <bokuno> cfhowlett: Ok. Thanks.
[07:11] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, first check your source ISO.  checking the burned cdrom is a different process.
[07:11] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, same page: check the CD instructions
[07:12] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: The source was off the Ubuntu site, its installed a number of times before without a problem.
[07:12] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, irrelevant.  bad downloads happen.  verification takes minutes.
[07:13] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: Okay, how would I go about this process?
[07:14] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, read - the - link - I - sent - for - instructions
[07:14] <cfhowlett> !md5sum
[07:15] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: Sorry I did not see it, Okay give me a moment. :D
[07:16] <cfhowlett> :)
[07:17] <FuuqUmiist> how do you check if ubuntu is using the proper video driver for your video card?
[07:19] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, proper?
[07:19] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, what card you running?
[07:20] <akiva-mobile> and are you just wanting the best driver, or do you want an open source one specifically?
[07:21] <FuuqUmiist> akiva-mobile how do i figure out what card it is using
[07:21] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, is this a laptop or desktop? Sometimes it has a sticker on it, that says amd or intel
[07:22] <akiva-mobile> amd or nvidia*
[07:22] <OerHeks> open terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[07:22] <akiva-mobile> that too :P
[07:23] <FuuqUmiist> its a VIA graphics i think
[07:23] <ambro718> How do I install 32bit libc on 64bit ubuntu?
[07:23] <akiva-mobile> o_O
[07:24] <FuuqUmiist> are via graphics drivers installed by default in ubuntu?
[07:24] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, usually via develops using a chipset
[07:25] <akiva-mobile> between amd or nvidia
[07:25] <OerHeks> ambro718, sudo apt-get install libc6-i386 http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libc6-i386
[07:25] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, how old is the computer?
[07:25] <FuuqUmiist> its pretty old
[07:25] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, how old is pretty old?
[07:25] <akiva-mobile> 2000?
[07:26] <FuuqUmiist> 2004 2005 maybe
[07:26] <akiva-mobile> okay.
[07:26] <akiva-mobile> so it might be ati or nvidia
[07:26] <cfhowlett> FuuqUmiist, lubuntu or xubuntu would likely work better on your box
[07:26] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, press ctrl alt T
[07:27] <FuuqUmiist> yeah lubuntu is installed
[07:27] <OerHeks> VIA, bad memorys on that chipset/videocard :-(
[07:27] <ambro718> OerHeks: thanks, that worked
[07:27] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, did you open the terminal?
[07:27] <akiva-mobile> what was the output of  lspci | grep VGA
[07:27] <akiva-mobile> ?
[07:28] <supernil> I want to reinstall ubuntu 13.10, without losing any data in my home folder. I tried it with the usb bootable but reinstall option was not avtive. Any help please?
[07:29] <FuuqUmiist> VIA Technologies, Inc. KM400/KN400/P4M800 [S3 UniChrome] (rev 01)
[07:29] <cfhowlett> supernil, "reinstall" is not an ubuntu option.  to save your data, move your /home, then install OS
[07:30] <cfhowlett> !home|supernil,
[07:32] <FuuqUmiist> akiva-mobile so does ubuntu support that integrated graphics? or will it only work on windows?
[07:32] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, tbh, I never knew this card existed
[07:32] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, im looking into it
[07:33] <supernil> Thank you.
[07:33] <FuuqUmiist> i think it is integrated into the mobo, but i didn't open the case up to know for sure
[07:33] <cfhowlett> supernil, glad to help
[07:34] <FuuqUmiist> akiva-mobile basic image viewing works, the problem is when watching a video i tried both vlc and mplayer
[07:34] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist,  apparently it is with ati

[07:37] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, your source iso is good.  now to answer your question directly regarding your cdrom - do the "check the CD" section of the the link
[07:38] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: Okay I'm on it, this my take another moment.

[07:43] <frahman> hi i need help
[07:43] <cfhowlett> !ask|frahman,
[07:43] <frahman> how to solve -> Errors were encountered while processing:  rubygems  rubygems1.8  se-toolkit  w3af E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[07:44] <FuuqUmiist> akiva-mobile thanks, i guess i need to install a version that uses Ubuntu 12.04
[07:44] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, mmmm? what version are you using now?
[07:44] <FuuqUmiist> 12
[07:44] <akiva-mobile> 12.04?
[07:45] <FuuqUmiist> 13,04
[07:45] <akiva-mobile> oh
[07:45] <akiva-mobile> i don't think 13.04 is supported anymore
[07:45] <cfhowlett> akiva-mobile, 13.04 is end of life
[07:45] <FuuqUmiist> and maybe that is why i had problems installing 13.10 too
[07:45] <akiva-mobile> you could try 14.04; it is out in a week or two
[07:46] <FuuqUmiist> yeah i used 13.04 and tried to upgrade to 13.10 since the fresh install wasn't working
[07:46] <akiva-mobile> FuuqUmiist, how much ram do you have on that old machine?
[07:46] <FuuqUmiist> yeah, i would but i have to wait almost 4 years for it
[07:46] <FuuqUmiist> it is only 512, but it is upgradeable
[07:47] <FuuqUmiist> i mean 4 weeks*
[07:47] <dansmith_btc> Hi, does ubuntu provide HTTPS repos to fetch packages from with apt-get ? I don't want an attacker to modify my packages while they are being downloaded.
[07:47] <frahman> anyone... how to solve -> Errors were encountered while processing:  rubygems  rubygems1.8  se-toolkit  w3af E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) i tried to install other apps than suddenly that error came out
[07:47] <akiva-mobile> 512... oh wait you said lubuntu :P
[07:48] <cfhowlett> dansmith_btc, as all packages are hash sum checked, that seems highly unlikely
[07:48] <FuuqUmiist> yeah, the link you gave recommended LXLE which is based on 12.04 ubuntu
[07:49] <ice9> how to reset the whole apt configuration?
[07:49] <ice9> I'm unable to install many depencies
[07:50] <dansmith_btc> cfhowlett, are those hashes downloaded via some secure channel? do you know?
[07:51] <cfhowlett> dansmith_btc, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing - sadly, my level is only mildly irritating.  I don't know.
[07:52] <Aman21> how to setup a mailserver?
[07:52] <Makefake1> :)
[07:52] <OerHeks> dansmith_btc, for packages and packagelists & SHA sums you have repository keys installed, do not worry about packages

[08:06] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, you'll note that functionality is less than 100%
[08:09] <ArchangelOKC> well, poop :( he left...anyone else able to help?
[08:09] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: Indeed, Okay so now I need to burn another disk and at a low speed with Brasero, what other settings am I to take into account?
[08:09] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, low speed burn should do it
[08:10] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, by the way, if you've never run a cdrom cleaner through that drive, you might want to ..
[08:13] <ArchangelOKC> cfhowlettn- do u know anything about alsa/pulseaudio
[08:13] <ArchangelOKC> * cfhowlett
[08:13] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett:  cdrom cleaner - Why should that make a difference?
[08:13] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, dirty driver reader = dirty data.
[08:13] <cfhowlett> ArchangelOKC, greetings.  what's your ubuntu question
[08:14] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett: Okay how would I run a  cdrom cleaner?

[08:15] <cfhowlett> Bluewolf, ?  go to electronics store.  buy cleaner.  insert in drive.
[08:15] <cfhowlett> ArchangIelOKC, oustanding description of your problem.  sadly, I've no knowledge in this area.

[09:14] <Bluewolf> Could someone just confirm this for me as I am burning Ubuntu to a CD,  8,0x (CD) is the Burning speed I set it to as it is the slowest in Brasero. Should I simulate before burning and use burnproof?
[09:18] <realmatrix> Bluewolf, simulate not required.
[09:19] <realmatrix> use burnproof, always.
[09:20] <Bluewolf> realmatrix:  8,0x (CD) is good right?
[09:20] <realmatrix> yes.
[09:20] <Bluewolf> thanks
[09:20] <realmatrix> could go faster if you wish.
[09:20] <realmatrix> what are you burning?
[09:20] <Bluewolf> Ubuntu 12.04
[09:20] <realmatrix> use fastest, will be fine.
[09:21] <cfhowlett_> realmatrix, must disagree.  slow burns fail way less often than fast burns
[09:21] <Bluewolf> Thats what I thought
[09:22] <realmatrix> not if you're using decent optical media.
[09:22] <llutz> "decent" != cheap ones from fooddiscounter
[09:23] <realmatrix> decent, i mean mcc media.
[09:23] <realmatrix> always get mcc if you can.
[09:23] <realmatrix> not brain science men.

[09:30] <kolera> how to install synaptic package manager
[09:31] <Bluewolf> kolera: sudo apt-get install synaptic package manager

[09:31] <realmatrix> sudo apt-get install synaptic
[09:31] <Bluewolf> kolera: Yeah how are you missing it?
[09:32] <kolera> u mean what?
[09:32] <llutz> synaptic doesn't with *buntu come by default since 11.10
[09:32] <Bluewolf> kolera: Synaptic package manager should be installed by default. You should not need to install it.
[09:33] <cfhowlett_> !info synaptic
[09:33] <kolera> ah..ok sorry..\
[09:33] <llutz> doesn't come with*

[10:14] <TopBloke> I've got a cron job running, it is a backup, but the 2nd time round files dont get overwritten but placed in a folder with in the destination help? sudo cp -rf /public/Videos/test /media/usb/serverbackup22/
[10:14] <MrPPS> Hey guys, quick question - I had an issue where I would get to Grub2, and try load Ubuntu, and it'd get stuck at loading ramdisk. I fixed it by chroot'ing from a love cd and then update-grub2
[10:14] <MrPPS> This worked, fixing Ubuntu, but, didn't have a windows boot option
[10:14] <MrPPS> Once in Ubuntu, I did update-grub2 again, which resulted in Windows back in the menu
[10:15] <MrPPS> But Ubuntu won't boot again, getting stuck at initial ramdisk - thoughts as to how I could fix?
[10:15] <llutz> TopBloke: use rsync, not cp
[10:15] <bekks> TopBloke: And you have to put the full path to rsync, like /usr/bin/rsync
[10:16] <TopBloke> is rsync a porgram?
[10:16] <bekks> Yes.
[10:16] <bekks> !rsync
[10:17] <TopBloke> Thank you all, the destination is a usb device, will rsync work in this case
[10:17] <llutz> TopBloke: it has to be mounted, then sure
[10:17] <TopBloke> I like it allready thanks
[10:18] <llutz> TopBloke: and you need writeaccess. if not, use roots crontab or systemwide
[10:18] <TopBloke> llutz: Many thanks
[10:21] <xutl> how to fix a corrupted fat32 microsd partition on ubuntu ?
[10:21] <xutl> 13.10
[10:21] <bekks> xutl: sudo fsck -f on the filesystem, while it is not mounted.
[10:22] <xutl> bekks: its is not mounted, its a 4gb microsd showing as 32mb
[10:22] <bekks> then the card is just dead.
[10:23] <xutl> bekks: its not dead, its been shown as 32mb in disks
[10:23] <xutl> http://pastebin.com/baNWqBwa
[10:23] <bekks> then 4064MB of it are dead.
[10:23] <bekks> Get a new one, there is nothing you can do to recoverthe remaining 4064MB.
[10:24] <xutl> bekks: how could it be dead ? I was using it and god knows what happened that it just turned like this, I only ejected and mounted it several times
[10:24] <bekks> xutl: And now most of the memory cells are dead.
[10:25] <MarderIII> or the partitioning data is corrupt
[10:25] <xutl> bekks: I want to recover the data, will the card afterwards
[10:25] <xutl> will throw*
[10:25] <bekks> xutl: Then pastebin sudo fdisk -l please
[10:25] <xutl> kk
[10:25] <bekks> along with dmesg
[10:25] <MrPPS> Hey guys, quick question - I had an issue where I would get to Grub2, and try load Ubuntu, and it'd get stuck at loading ramdisk. I fixed it by chroot'ing from a love cd and then update-grub2
[10:26] <MarderIII> xutl try photorec
[10:26] <xutl> bekks: dmesg tail | grep *** ?? what
[10:26] <MrPPS> This worked, fixing Ubuntu, but, didn't have a windows boot option
[10:26] <MrPPS> But Ubuntu won't boot again, getting stuck at initial ramdisk - thoughts as to how I could fix?
[10:26] <bekks> xutl: dmesg. not dmesg | grep whatever
[10:26] <MrPPS> Sorry, updated grub2 from Ubuntu fixing Windows, but that broke Ubuntu boot...
[10:26] <xutl> MarderIII: I tried testdisk but its showing as there is no partition inside with the full drive as 32mb fat32 intel
[10:27] <bekks> MrPPS: Whats your actual question?
[10:28] <MrPPS> Sorry bekks - kinda got lost trying to repeat the initial one. Essentially, trying to figure out why updating grub through chroot causes Ubuntu to boot, but updating grub2 from within Ubuntu causes Windows to boot, but Ubuntu to freeze on ramdisk load
[10:28] <MrPPS> I would rather have grub working for both :P
[10:28] <tunage> My video drivers errors on update, ->  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)    http://bpaste.net/show/plTvp3lS9OwAqTtelfn4/
[10:28] <MarderIII> xutl: then Im afraid its dead. :-( You could try to run parted to resize/reformat, but Ive little hope that will work
[10:29] <bekks> xutl: Where are your pastebins please? :)
[10:29] <MrPPS> Bekks - my advanced options don't work either (other kernel, or recovery)
[10:29] <xutl> bekks: 1min, doing it. dmesg output is exceeding terminal window lines
[10:29] <bekks> xutl: "dmesg | pastebinit"
[10:29] <xutl> MarderIII: I installed gpart but to no avail
[10:30] <tunage> is ubuntu fglrx compatible?
[10:30] <bekks> tunage: sure.

[10:31] <tunage> http://bpaste.net/show/plTvp3lS9OwAqTtelfn4/
[10:31] <tunage> ^^ broke
[10:31] <bekks> tunage: Then read the article given please.
[10:34] <MonkeyDust> hi
[10:34] <xutl> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7140324/
[10:35] <xutl> bekks: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ dmesg | pastebinit http://paste.ubuntu.com/7140324/ ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit  Disk /dev/mmcblk0 doesn't contain a valid partition table http://paste.ubuntu.com/7140327/
[10:35] <bekks> xutl: that card is dead. It is recognized as 32M, and there is no way to change that, besides rplacing it.
[10:36] <xutl> bekks: I just want data, loosing a card is of no concern
[10:36] <bekks> xutl: there is no way.
[10:36] <cfhowlett_> bekks, dd?
[10:36] <xutl> :(
[10:37] <bekks> cfhowlett_: for the first 32M, yes.
[10:37] <xutl> cfhowlett_: I tried dd also but its creating image of 32mb only
[10:37] <cfhowlett_> xutl, It's dead, Jim;
[10:37] <Seveas> xutl: dd_rescue and photorec
[10:37] <xutl> that too the 32mb image is filled with zeros and nothing else
[10:37] <Seveas> but looks like it's not among the living anymore
[10:37] <Seveas> as is your data
[10:38] <xutl> Seveas: dd_rescue ? I tried dd only
[10:38] <xutl> and testdisk, do I need to try photorec also ? Seveas
[10:38] <bekks> xutl: Only the first 32M are accessible. All other data is lost. Entirely.
[10:38] <xutl> hmm :(
[10:39] <tunage> I have 5 (five) radeon r9 290 video cards and not a single one appears in lspci  http://bpaste.net/show/T0FEryjKKm6lIjGCWYwK/  ??  wtf?
[10:40] <ikonia> tunage: just do "lspci" rather than the grep
[10:40] <xutl> bekks: but why did it happened at all ? I was using it and it was working fine, I ejected it once and then remounted it and it just became like this. why ?
[10:40] <tunage> ikonia same nothing
[10:40] <ikonia> tunage: it still outputs that one line....
[10:40] <Seveas> xutl: eject without unmounting (or in wondows: remove hardware safely) *will* corrupt any media
[10:40] <tunage> http://bpaste.net/show/BbuvPY5rRZBjJrTv14Jj/
[10:41] <Bluewolf> cfhowlett_: The install is running smoothly without Crashing, it was clearly the disk. Thank you for your help.
[10:41] <Seveas> xutl: and it looks like the wrong bits corrupted in your case
[10:41] <cfhowlett_> Bluewolf, happy to help.
[10:41] <jak2013> hey i type:mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:41] <jak2013> typed the subject, and the body,
[10:41] <jak2013> typed a point   .   how to finish the email?  I have google but keep getting acpi results not what im looking for. I need something that is equivalent to going into display manager and disabling 1 of my monitors.
[10:42] <xutl> Seveas: a corruption is repairable or recoverable but hearing "DEAD" is scaring me off
[10:42] <tunage> ikonia I am trying them one at a time
[10:42] <tunage> ikonia but to answer your question, yes, it is actually designed for it.
[10:42] <ikonia> tunage: the reason for asking is this 03:00.0 PCI bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8605 PCI Express 4-port Gen2 Switch (rev aa)
[10:42] <jak2013> Seveas not work...
[10:43] <Seveas> prod_: you'll want to read the manpage for xrandr :)
[10:43] <ikonia> tunage: I'm wondering if that is how the multiple cards are supported at once.
[10:43] <ikonia> (do you know)
[10:43] <tunage> ikonia it has a pcie x4 slot
[10:43] <Seveas> jak2013: then try contrl+d :)
[10:43] <ikonia> tunage: ok, so that looks like that device I've just listed
[10:43] <tunage> ikonia I can't get one single one to work, much less 5
[10:43] <ikonia> tunage: which having a quick google doesn't appear to have solid linux support
[10:43] <xutl> bekks: cfhowlett_ Seveas thnx anyway, will try recovery and repair and if its successfull then will let you know
[10:43] <ikonia> tunage: well, that would explain why non of them working if that device is not seen
[10:43] <prod_> Seveas: Thank you :)
[10:44] <cfhowlett_> xutl, good luck!
[10:44] <ikonia> tunage: I'm just having a litle look at that device and it's support at the moment
[10:44] <jak2013> Seveas mmm not sure if the email was sent
[10:44] <jak2013> other way?
[10:44] <tunage> ikonia I hope to god this isn't a winblows only card.
[10:44] <ikonia> tunage: it's called "windows"
[10:44] <tunage> no if you use it.
[10:45] <ikonia> ok, good luck working this out
[10:46] <Seveas> jak2013: an actual mail client :)
[10:46] <bekks> xutl: there is nothing to repair. how often do I have to tell you?
[10:46] <Seveas> jak2013: a good CLI mail client is mutt. You can also try swaks to send mails from the command line with a single command.
[10:47] <bekks> xutl: that thing is dead. entirely. gone. lost. broken. borked.
[10:47] <CodeGosu> i removed nvidia discrete gpu and switched to integrated, now xfce boots into black screen, all other window managers are somewhat broken but dont boot to black screen, only lxde works. is there any way i can force xfce to work?
