[14:39] <LMNOP_> cfhowlett, plz no talking about ´´hackintosh´´
[14:39] <ikonia> he's not
[14:40] <ikonia> he mentioned that he'd done it and thats why he CAN'T help
[14:40] <LMNOP_> i know just warning
[14:40] <ikonia> there is no need for a warning
[14:40] <LMNOP_> well i did
[14:40] <PCWorker> Hello everyone....
[14:41] <LMNOP_> PCWorker, hi
[14:43] <flughafen> i'm installing ubuntu server now in kvm, but it only see's the qcow2 file as a 196kb drive?
[14:43] <PCWorker> I have a Compaq Desktop with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on it. I want to know if I can pull the hard drive out and put it into another Desktop and it will boot right up or will I have to re-install the OS???
[14:43] <ikonia> flughafen: sounds like you've defined the file wrong then
[14:44] <ikonia> flughafen: of you've set it to dynamic, rather than allocate in full
[14:44] <OpenTokix> flughafen: its because the qcow2-file is a sparseimage - Is the install done, or did you just start?
[14:44] <flughafen> qemu-img create -f qcow2 ubuntu.qcow2 50G
[14:44] <flughafen> this works with other operating systems, it's pretty standard
[14:45] <cfhowlett> PCWorker, if the two systems are IDENTICAL, you should be able to drag and drop.  Otherwise, plan to reinstall.
[14:45] <flughafen> ah, nevermind, i'm stupid.  the virt-installer picked raw format by default.
[14:45] <flughafen> sorry guys
[14:46] <imbezol> cfhowlett: that's not even close to true
[14:46] <cfhowlett> imbezol, please inform PCWorker
[14:46] <imbezol> if they both use the same boot method it'll probably just work
[14:46] <EriC^^> PCWorker: if it doesnt boot you might need to rebuild the initrd from chroot
[14:47] <k1l_> PCWorker: could work.
[14:47] <PCWorker> I was hoping that I could just update the drivers.
[14:47] <EriC^^> using a live usb
[14:47] <k1l_> PCWorker: go and try that.
[14:47] <imbezol> PCWorker: you may need to update graphics drivers if you have one that's ati and one that's nvidia or something
[14:47] <imbezol> even then it'll probably work, just not with 3d support etc
[14:47] <nbusrone> cfhowlett : guess I didn't install ubuntu tweak , installed now working but still the fonts isn't sharp .Will try other setting thanks :)
[14:52] <valerioack> ciao
[14:53] <PCWorker> The other desktop is an HP/Compaq too, but the graphics card is 512mg ATI. So will have to update those first. What I'm most worried about is, If it does boot up "stable", then will it still say it is a compaq presario OR will it configure the new motherboard automatically?
[14:53] <daftykins> PCWorker: just try it.
[14:53] <daftykins> it won't hurt!
[14:56] <PCWorker> daftykins: If it don't work, I will let yall know what happened. If it does work, I will let yall know how much faster and better a computing experience I am having. Oh, and I also started reading and practicing making my own Linux Box.
[14:57] <daftykins> err, ok?
[14:57] <cfhowlett> PCWorker, looking forward to it.   And thanks for the info.
[15:10] <aryklein> I am deploying an openstack cloud (one controller/network node with 4 compute nodes) in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It's a critical/production environment and I am not an Openstack guru. Rather I'm very new in Openstack. So I need a long term support Openstack version. According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/CloudArchive and my needs, is it correct to choose Icehouse instead of Juno?
[15:17] <Walex2> aryklein: #Ubuntu-server perhaps
[15:18] <aryklein> Walex2: thanks
[15:19] <daftykins> i bet there's an openstack channel.
[15:20] <ikonia> there is and it's excellent
[15:23] <aryklein> daftykins: yeap I've asked there... but I'm concerned in the Ubuntu support
[15:23] <daftykins> k
[15:23] <ikonia> what way concerned with ubuntu support ?
[15:24] <aryklein> I understand they keep support only for the last two Openstack release. And according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/CloudArchive, ubuntu support Icehouse for 5yrs
[15:25] <ikonia> it is supported for the duration of the LTS release as that diagram shows
[15:25] <aryklein> I need to know what kind of support Ubuntu gives to Openstack
[15:25] <ikonia> what do you mean, "what kind of support"
[15:25] <ikonia> they maintain the packages
[15:26] <aryklein> ikonia: the compatibility with new libraries?
[15:26] <ikonia> new libraries ?
[15:26] <ikonia> what new libraries
[15:26] <ikonia> the LTS platform does not change for the duration of the cycle
[15:27] <ikonia> the openstack software is maintained against that plaform for the duration of the LTS release.
[15:27] <aryklein> ikonia: yeap I meant that
[15:28] <phre4k> anyone with samba 4 experience?
[15:31] <aryklein> ikonia: So... If I decided to use Juno and Ubuntu finishes the Juno support, maybe with the next Ubuntu 14.04 upgrades my system could collapse?
[15:36] <aryklein> ikonia: I mean... If decided to use Juno in a 14.04LTS what happen when Ubuntu stop maintaining Juno and I keep upgrading my 14.04? new updates could broke my openstack?
[15:40] <anuro> Hello, how can I get GParted to format exfat?
[15:47] <O_OniGiri> Hi there, I'm having an issue. My Firefox launches much faster than Chrome. Chrome takes like 10 seconds to launch. However I really would like to use Chrome instead of Firefox. Please help me out.
[15:50] <Whitor> Hi All. It doesn't seem like I can create multiple network profiles for my Wireless adapter like I can for my wired adapter. Is there a way around this?   I'd like to have a DHCP profile and a couple static ip profiles for testing... Any ideas?
[15:50] <Whitor> 14.04lts btw
[15:50] <phre4k> O_OniGiri: firefox is the better browser, however you could try moving your chrome profile and starting "fresh". If that's faster, your profile is the culprit
[15:51] <k1l_> O_OniGiri: maybe your plugins are slowing down
[15:51] <O_OniGiri> phre4k: haha ok. I will try to switch to firefox I guess. I just liked it that Chrome syncs well with my Android phone...
[15:51] <phre4k> O_OniGiri: use Firefox Sync
[15:51] <k1l_> O_OniGiri: see if a new profile starts faster
[15:51] <BluesKaj> O_OniGiri, do you have a gmail account , if so that could explain the loading of various google "stuff" with the browser therby slowing down the launch
[15:52] <ikonia> aryklein: if you use packages from the ubuntu LTS repo - they will be maintained for the duration of the LTS release
[15:52] <ikonia> aryklein: if you use packaages outside the LTS release, that is not ubuntu's issue to maintain compatibility
[15:52] <O_OniGiri> phre4k: yeah, I will have a look at Firefox sync
[15:53] <Whitor> Only the WiFi SSID's appear in the network dropdown list.  Not the connections as created in Network Connection (edit connections at bottom)
[15:53] <daftykins> well you can't make your own wireless networks without using ad-hoc wifi, probably?
[16:10] <guest1435623> hi guys, libreoffice doesn't use the system-wide font, which is terminus. any idea how to fix this?
[16:10] <Notwang> hi
[16:10] <Notwang> I keep hiting this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifenslave/+bug/1269921
[16:11] <Notwang> is there a sensible workaround for that?
[16:11] <Notwang> I don't believe that people don't use lacp on ubuntu server
[16:12] <daftykins> you can't restart networking services reliability, i doubt it has to do with a single file
[16:12] <daftykins> only a proper reboot or ifup + down does it, if you're editing the interfaces file
[16:14] <Notwang> so if I reboot lacp is going to work properly?
[16:15] <daftykins> dunno
[16:15] <Notwang> -__-
[16:24] <Open_Source_newb> Dear All
[16:24] <Open_Source_newb> i have quick question
[16:24] <Open_Source_newb> i installed Ubuntu 14.04.1 server version
[16:24] <Open_Source_newb> and trying to install Cloudera hafoop
[16:24] <Open_Source_newb> *hadoop
[16:25] <Open_Source_newb> while installation i created a useraccount for logging om
[16:25] <Open_Source_newb> but now i am unable to login with root and password
[16:25] <Open_Source_newb> but with the useraccount i created
[16:25] <Open_Source_newb> requesting assistance on the same
[16:28] <Open_Source_newb> any help would be greatly appreacited
[16:28] <Open_Source_newb> *appreciated
[16:28] <daftykins> yes because root is not an account you have a password for, on ubuntu
[16:28] <daftykins> also please type in one message in future
[16:29] <Open_Source_newb> sure
[16:29] <Open_Source_newb> so creating a root password should fix it
[16:30] <daftykins> you shouldn't do that
[16:30] <daftykins> that's going against how ubuntu is meant to be used :)
[16:30] <Open_Source_newb> oh okie
[16:31] <Open_Source_newb> because i am trying to install a software and it requires root credentials to authenticate and install
[16:31] <Open_Source_newb> not sure how to proceed
[16:31] <themizzi> sudo apt-get install <package>
[16:32] <themizzi> sudo gives you root access for a single command
[16:32] <daftykins> i would think it's already installed if you got that far
[16:32] <Open_Source_newb> 3rd party application
[16:32] <themizzi> the password it asks for is your user account password
[16:32] <daftykins> i'm not familiar with that though.
[16:32] <daftykins> themizzi: not quite right i'm afraid.
[16:32] <Open_Source_newb> cloudera hadoop
[16:32] <Open_Source_newb> is what i am trying to install
[16:33] <ubuthetechguru> i'm allowing someone else ssh access into my server for various reasons, is there some increased logging level so that I can see everytime he uses sudo OR is that the default?
[16:33] <kominato> hi
[16:34] <ubuthetechguru> herro
[16:34] <daftykins> they would not be allowed to use sudo unless you added them to the admin group
[16:34] <mablae> Hey,
[16:35] <mablae> On fresh Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS installation how to get wlan connection and store credentials?
[16:35] <SchrodingersScat> ubuthetechguru: /var/log/auth.log seems to log?
[16:35] <daftykins> server and wifi? ugh
[16:36] <summer_> How to reset all network settings?
[16:37] <kominato> Bought a new generation intel nuc NUC5i5ryk and can't install 14.04 or 14.10 on it. installation menu has only windows bars no text etc ... has anyone faced this problem ?
[16:39] <themizzi> daftykins: which part of that isn't right under the assumption the packages are available via apt?
[16:39] <daftykins> themizzi: the part where it's a service installed already and the word 'install' was being used erroneously
[16:40] <daftykins> you came in late so i don't blame you.
[16:40] <daftykins> kominato: install the latest EFI update, helps loads.
[16:40] <themizzi> ah
[16:40] <pokemonmaster> !help
[16:41] <pokemonmaster> !patience
[16:42] <daftykins> !pm | kominato
[16:43] <Budd> My Acer Aspire One fails to restore my X screen on resume; text consoles are fine (but have a non moving mouse pointer on them). Killing my XFCE session from the command line gets me a working login window.
[16:44] <Budd> Is this likely an ACPI issue? What should I try?
[16:44] <kominato> its the latest EFI because its a new product. it boots the installer but the graphics have problems as I described. Empty windows etc
[16:53] <v0lksman> I have a 2T external drive I'm trying to run fsck on.  Is it normal that even with -v that nothing appears on screen for pass 1?
[16:57] <v0lksman> verbose doesn't seem very verbose
[16:57] <subvhome> im trying to install partclone 0.2.70 and it gives me this error "partclone depends on libreiserfs0.3-0 Package libreiserfs0.3-o is not installed" However, I can't find this package and it can be newer then 0.3.
[16:57] <subvhome> I did a minimal install of ubuntu.
[16:59] <mablae> daftykins, It is for a kiosk mode setop
[16:59] <mablae> not server
[16:59] <mablae> I used server to avoid whole unity install cause I am using openbox
[17:03] <subvhome> nevermind.. i compiled it
[17:04] <ioria> subvhome, there is a libreiser4-dev in synaptic
[17:10] <UnHacK> all q

[17:19] <wldcordeiro_> Is there a ppa aside from deadsnakes that provides python versions?
[17:19] <wldcordeiro_> I was trying to get 3.4.3 on 14.04
[17:20] <Vespero> Ugh, anyone know how to get the xChat Indicator to show up in 14.10? I had it working but I'm on a new install and can't remember how I did it
[17:20] <UnHacK> but ubuntu not kali)

[17:46] <unirevolucion> tengo un problema para instalar ubuntu, en el instalador no me aparece el HD y si está montado
[17:46] <unirevolucion> cómo hago para instalar ubuntu?
[17:48] <XenophonF> hey all, i got mac os x and refind re-installed, per the general mac install instructions, and when i try to boot ubuntu desktop 14.10, this is what happens - https://imgur.com/a/4NDSy
[17:48] <Jynx_> I have a question, though not while pertainable directly to ubuntu would be great if I could get answer.
[17:49] <XenophonF> sorry for the potato quality of the pictures
[17:49] <Jynx_> I can't read the text on the last screen where the error is listed
[17:49] <XenophonF> it says "no controller found"
[17:50] <blumenkranz> Hello there. Does somebody know about changes to zsh config files performed through apt? I recently got an option in my .zshrc that I didn't put there.
[17:51] <Jynx_> that error is generally persuant to it not detecting your keyboard/mouse
[17:51] <Jynx_> XenophonF, .. but that's obviously not the case as I can SEE Your keyboard
[17:51] <Jynx_> Oh nice
[17:51] <Jynx_> My problem is solved
[17:51] <Jynx_> :)
[17:52] <Jynx_> XenophonF, I'm reading on a forum that that warning is flashed because of the USB Connection as uuppose to the older ps/2 you should be able to just hit enter past it normally
[17:53] <XenophonF> Jynx_: let me give that a shot
[17:54] <XenophonF> Jynx_: thanks for the link
[17:54] <Jynx_> that's for arch sorry :/ wrong linnk
[17:54] <Vespero> Anyone have a functioning Systray Indicator for xChat?
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> blumenkranz: usually the changes are done outside of $HOME. I've not known any rc files in $HOME be changed by updates
[17:56] <Jynx_> I'll be right back
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: xchat hasnt been developed for 4 years now, its dead
[17:57] <blumenkranz> ActionParsnip: that's weird. My zsh has recently started logging with share_history but I haven't touched the zshrc in ages.
[17:57] <blumenkranz> And I think it started to happen after an update.
[17:57] <Vespero> ActionPasnip: Well, it still works. And I did have an indicator working for it on my last install. I just can't figure out how now
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: i suggest you use a different client. Xchat is dead and gone
[17:58] <XenophonF> Jynx_: I looked at that second link, thanks. This has a fresh install of Mac OS X 9.1 on it, and disk encryption isn't enabled.
[17:58] <Vespero> ActionPasnip: What do you use?
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: the web ui, or andchat
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: sometimes pidgin
[17:59] <m387457834> Hi, my DVDRW drive won't work in 14.04 but works in 12.04, what can I do?
[18:00] <XenophonF> I'll try booting again with a USB keyboard/mouse attached.
[18:00] <htqp> Vespero: ActionParsnip HexChat is fork of Xchat
[18:00] <Vespero> htqp: Is it still being supported?
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> !info hexchat
[18:01] <Vespero> I want something that's just IRC and which is usable on a desktop
[18:01] <XenophonF> didn't help :( still get the same error
[18:01] <XenophonF> so here's another question - on ubuntu what switches from text mode into what i presume is some kind of graphics mode?
[18:01] <XenophonF> and how do i disable it?
[18:01] <htqp> Vespero: sure
[18:01] <XenophonF> because i can boot the ubuntu server 14.10 installer just fine
[18:01] <Vespero> Well, I'll go try it out.
[18:01] <XenophonF> it never switches out of text mode
[18:01] <ioria> ActionParsnip: ifit's not being supported anymore, whyispreinstalled by default  :-ç
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> ioria: not seen it preinstalled on any official ubuntu release
[18:02] <ioria> ActionParsnip: ohhh
[18:02] <XenophonF> something must be enabling some kind of framebuffer mode for the console though, because ubuntu server crashes the exact same way the first time it boots post-install
[18:03] <Open_Source_newb> Dear All
[18:03] <Open_Source_newb> require help in configuring - another user with password-less sudo/pbrun privileges to become root.
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: not wise, at all
[18:04] <Open_Source_newb> ActionParsnip : oh okie
[18:04] <Open_Source_newb> but i need to install a software and root autnteication is not working , this is the only option i have
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: why not just use sudo like the OS is intended to be used and you'll be fine
[18:04] <m387457834> Hi, my DVDRW drive won't work in 14.04 but works in 12.04, what can I do?
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: your first user by default can use sudo
[18:05] <k1l_> Open_Source_newb: what setup is that?
[18:05] <Vespero> Does Hexchat have a systray indicator?
[18:05] <Open_Source_newb> cloudera hadoop
[18:05] <k1l_> Vespero: no
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: there is no "root authentication" as the account is disabled. There is no password
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: pidgin does
[18:05] <k1l_> Vespero: maybe you can whitelist that
[18:05] <Open_Source_newb> i added the root account and password
[18:05] <htqp> Vespero: yes
[18:06] <Open_Source_newb> still unable to <ActionParsnip>
[18:06] <k1l_> Open_Source_newb: that is not the ubuntu way
[18:06] <Vespero> htqp: Do you know where to install it from?
[18:06] <k1l_> Open_Source_newb: please explain the whole setup and issue.
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: you cant add the root account. That's like saying you "added the administrator account" to a windows system
[18:06] <Open_Source_newb> Root access to your hosts is required to install the Cloudera packages. This installer will connect to your hosts via SSH and log in either directly as root or as another user with password-less sudo/pbrun privileges to become root.
[18:06] <Sailoreal> Hey
[18:07] <htqp> Vespero: assuming >= 14.04 Trusty: software center, as usual.
[18:07] <XenophonF> brb
[18:07] <k1l_> oh well, broken software again
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> !rootirc | Guest7931
[18:07] <Open_Source_newb> so what happens is when i try to install ... it gives an error
[18:07] <Vespero> htqp: I mean, I installed Hexchat, but there's no systray indicator
[18:07] <k1l_> htqp: are you sure about the systray indicator?
[18:07] <m387457834> Hi, my DVDRW drive won't work in 14.04 but works in 12.04, what can I do?
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: why did you set the root password when you are clearly VERY new to Linux
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: what do you mean "doesn't work"?
[18:08] <m387457834> ActionParsnip: it's not even listed in lshw
[18:08] <Vespero> ActionParsnip: I think you meant to mention someone else
[18:08] <Open_Source_newb> this is the error message : Cloudera Manager Failed to authenticate : Exhausted available authentication methods
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: if you put a CD in it, does the drive spin up?
[18:08] <k1l_> htqp: Vespero on unity there is not tray icon for hexchat. maybe you can whitelist it.
[18:08] <m387457834> ActionParsnip: of course
[18:08] <htqp> Vespero: I have it here, give me a second to check
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> Vespero: indeed, apologies
[18:08] <Sailoreal> I wonder how to install Xubuntu with Dual boot alongside Windows 7
[18:08] <Sailoreal>  Can someone provide me with a video or instruction?
[18:08] <leptone> is it advisable to for me to install 14.04 LTS 64 bit on an old emachines 350?
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: why did you set the password wen you are clearly very new to Linux
[18:08] <k1l_> !dualboot | Sailoreal
[18:09] <htqp> oh k1l_ Vespero I have XFCE here, not unity
[18:09] <k1l_> !rootirc | root____1
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: not of course at all. The issue could be lack of power, which would explain why its not detecting
[18:09] <Vespero> htqp: oh
[18:09] <Sailoreal> k1l_, is this Xubuntu?
[18:09] <derrzzaa> Hey guys, I've just bought a new monitor for my currently headless Ubuntu machine, with a nvidia card in it. Currently it's set to a res / Hz setting unsupported by the monitor.
[18:09] <m387457834> ActionParsnip: I said it works in 12.04 already
[18:09] <Open_Source_newb> oh , i was following a video
[18:09] <derrzzaa> How can I troubleshoot this?
[18:09] <k1l_> Sailoreal: that doesnt change if its xubuntu or ubuntu or..or....or...
[18:10] <Open_Source_newb> and stuck in this step
[18:10] <Sailoreal> k1l_, I have a Windows machine with x64, and 4GB RAM (200 GB HDD). Would you recommend Xubuntu if I lile fast and modern?
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> leptone: I'd go for Xubuntu 14.04. eMachines have done their usual stunt and cheaped out on the RAM
[18:10] <Open_Source_newb> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0l87tArUDk
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: is it shown in dmesg ?
[18:10] <Sailoreal> Or which would you recommend?
[18:10] <Open_Source_newb> 5:18
[18:10] <m387457834> ActionParsnip: nope
[18:10] <k1l_> Sailoreal: anything you like. ubuntu should run there too
[18:10] <john_doe_jr> I need to tar up some files in a specific directory and I am having problems: " tar -C /path/to/directory/ -cvpzf backupname.tar.gz " is not working…any ideas?
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: so you ran:   dmesg | egrep -i 'dvd|cd'
[18:11] <m387457834> ActionParsnip: yes :)
[18:11] <k1l_> Sailoreal: its your choice. if you like xfce more go with xubuntu. its just about the different desktop
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> john_doe_jr: http://mylinuxnotebook.blogspot.com/2008/11/create-extract-targz-files.html
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: can you pastebin the output (if any)
[18:12] <Sailoreal> I can't really choose ...
[18:12] <Sailoreal> Which is the most popular and recommended?
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: if its 4Gb RAM then Ubuntu, if you like Unity.
[18:12] <k1l_> Sailoreal: then go with your first idea and if you like it, stay there
[18:12] <m387457834> ActionParsnip: there is no cd or dvd in the output it's just 10 lines about usb
[18:12] <k1l_> Sailoreal: make own experience
[18:12] <Sailoreal> k1l_,  a friend said Xubuntu was good, Idk
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: Ubuntu as lots of things are still quite meshed with Unity shell
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: why not try both?
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: they cost the same (free!)
[18:13] <Sailoreal> ActionParsnip, I can't ...
[18:13] <john_doe_jr> ActionParsnip: I appreciate the help but that link did not use the -C option
[18:13] <k1l_> Open_Source_newb: that video is just plain wrong. he is using a lot of wrong commands
[18:13] <Sailoreal> ActionParsnip, I don't have the time ...
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: sure you can, try them in live CD / USB then make a call from there
[18:13] <Open_Source_newb> K1l , oh is it
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: then read reviews / watch videos on yourube
[18:13] <k1l_> Sailoreal: so when you dont got time, why are we still talking and you not intsalling xubuntu? :)
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> m387457834: have you tried resetting your BIOS to defaults the resetting it up?
[18:14] <Sailoreal> k1l_, coz I don't know if I wanna use Ubuntu or Xubuntu etc. :) Or LTS or regular ...
[18:14] <Open_Source_newb> K1l: how to proceed please
[18:14] <Sailoreal> I'm a beginner
[18:14] <Sailoreal> of linux
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: i suggest LTS for new users
[18:14] <Open_Source_newb> this is the only source i had
[18:14] <Sailoreal> (And it's a laptop)
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: doesnt matter
[18:14] <k1l_> Sailoreal: again: we cant make the choice for you.
[18:15] <Sailoreal> Which would you recommend/suggest? No, I know, I just want your opinions :)
[18:15] <k1l_> Sailoreal: if you want/can update every 6 months then n14.10 is ok, but for beginners better go LTS
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: I prefer to install Ubuntu minimal then add slim and openbox, works really well for me
[18:15] <Sailoreal> Yes, but I mean Xubuntu or Ubuntu?
[18:15] <Sailoreal> ActionParsnip, ok
[18:15] <Sailoreal> Minimal?
[18:16] <k1l_> !poll | Sailoreal
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: just stick to the main Ubuntu, you'll be fine
[18:16] <k1l_> Sailoreal: if you ask 20 times more its not helping. go and install xubuntu.
[18:16] <Sailoreal> Why Xubuntu?
[18:16] <k1l_> becaus.
[18:16] <k1l_> *e
[18:16] <Sailoreal> ...
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: go do some research and make a choice
[18:17] <Sailoreal> Ok
[18:17] <k1l_> Open_Source_newb: i bet they have a documentation, and support. dont rely on videos some bloke with not more knowledge then you made
[18:17] <Sailoreal> Is Ubuntu better than Mint?
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Open_Source_newb: the first user you made at install time can use suo, use that and stay off root. The OS is designed to NOT use root accounts but to use sudo
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: some say yes, some say no
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: is coke better than pepsi?
[18:18] <Sailoreal> Yep xD
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: your question is as intelligent as that
[18:18] <Sailoreal> Ok ...
[18:18] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, what doest contain on an ubuntu minimal ?
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: or is red better than blue
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> realBigfoot: minimal is package management, kernel, bootloader and some basic tools like vi / nano etc
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> realBigfoot: so you can build up. Much like Arch, because Arch is sooo hard to install
[18:19] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, does it have any graphical shell ?
[18:19] <k1l_> Sailoreal: since you ask in a ubuntu channel: use ubuntu and not mint.
[18:19] <Sailoreal> Ok
[18:20] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, oh I see...
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> realBigfoot: not by default, but you can install one if you need to. You will also be offered to install the desktop metapackages from the web, saves having to install the OSthen upgrade the packages from the web
[18:20] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, nice :)
[18:20] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, we build it as we like it to be
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> realBigfoot: yeah its pretty cool. I dont like all this wasted resource with a DE so I just use openbox WM
[18:21] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, indeed.. there is a lot of things I would get rid of from the system build
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> realBigfoot: exactly, build up rather than remove what is aded by default
[18:22] <realBigfoot> ActionParsnip, nice to know! I will totally give a shot on this one... next time I format my computer... i have customized a bunch of things... now i am lazy
[18:24] <Sailoreal> !dualboot | Sailoreal
[18:28] <Sailoreal> So LTS rather than the latest?
[18:29] <ioria> Sailoreal, : Long Time Supported
[18:30] <ioria> Sailoreal, : .10 development
[18:30] <nigga_> is Ubuntu Studio still actively developed ?
[18:30] <Sailoreal> Which is best? Recommended?
[18:30] <Sailoreal> lTS
[18:30] <Sailoreal> I think I will choose Lts ...
[18:30] <SchrodingersScat> freedom of choice means you get to decide
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: yes, 14.04 LTS is supported til April 2019
[18:30] <Sailoreal> ok
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: none are best
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: if one ws best, nobody would use the others at all
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: think about it
[18:31] <k1l_> Sailoreal: still chating? why not installing already? :)
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> k1l_: doesnt have time apparently
[18:31] <Sailoreal> I'm searching for a video how to do it with dual boot :)
[18:32] <k1l_> Sailoreal: we gave you documentation for that. no need for video
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: you have been 18 minutes asking the same question over and over, yet you don't have time to try researching online?
[18:32] <Sailoreal> Ok ...
[18:32] <tokam> If I press ctrl+l in nautilus I can not edit my current path
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: so why doi you not have time to research but have the same time to ask in here?
[18:33] <tokam> has anything changed with an update?
[18:33] <Sailoreal> I have researched
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> tokam: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[18:33] <Sailoreal> But I can't use a CD
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: then make a choice based on your research
[18:33] <Sailoreal> I have to use a USB
[18:33] <tokam> Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Sailoreal: you can transfer the ISO to USB using unetbootin
[18:33] <Sailoreal> Okay
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> tokam: can you not click in the top bar and type the path you desire?
[18:34] <tokam> It seems to be an issue of my current window instance
[18:34] <tokam> if I press ctrl+n and then ctrl+L in the new window nautilus works as expected.
[18:34] <tokam> no I can not
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> tokam: press ALT + F2 and run:   nautilus -q
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> tokam: wait for nautilus to restart then retry
[18:35] <tokam> I did not know what it does but now I know :D
[18:35] <Pici> /70/70
[18:35] <tokam> works all pretty well ;)
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> tokam: sweet
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> tokam: you restarted nautilus ::)   (man pages)
[18:38] <Sailoreal> Should I choose Live, HdMedia, or NetInstall?
[18:38] <Sailoreal> On unetbootin
[18:38] <k1l_> choose where=
[18:38] <Sailoreal> ?
[18:38] <derrzzaa> Anyone know if there's a way to automatically detect optimal display settings from the CLI?  I'm struggling to configure my screen : (
[18:38] <Sailoreal> Or Daily_Live
[18:38] <k1l_> Sailoreal: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu
[18:39] <Pici> Sailoreal: Live would be the easiest.
[18:39] <Sailoreal> Okay
[18:39] <k1l_> Sailoreal: wait, meant that link, sorry: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[18:39] <Sailoreal> unetbootin or the one here?
[18:39] <Sailoreal> which should I use?
[18:40] <artisanIndia> my ubuntu server is sending me emails of failed login attempts and this is annoying me too much
[18:40] <bePolite> Hello
[18:40] <bePolite> Is there a utility I can use get help for online commands online?
[18:40] <artisanIndia> I cant find the file which is sending me emails any idea ?
[18:42] <gabb0> Hi! 12.04 server.  How can I determine if /etc/cron.daily is executed?  Running sudo crontab -l I don't see it as a job by cron itself?  Please point me in the proper direction to understanding...thanks.
[18:42] <maesrin> hi guys , my two years ssd seems to face some difficulties , this is what i get from dmesg -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10433988/
[18:42] <maesrin> should i replace it ? or try to reinstall the Os?
[18:42] <Sailoreal> What's Trusty Desktop?
[18:43] <ioria> Sailoreal, : Trusty  is the name of the 14.04 release
[18:44] <gabb0> maesrin, look into badblocks, it has an ssd option
[18:44] <Sailoreal> But my file name is not trusty desktop
[18:44] <Sailoreal> but it is on the instruction
[18:44] <gabb0> maesrin, -----> https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/93686/can-i-prove-that-an-ssd-is-broken
[18:45] <Sailoreal> Why?
[18:45] <k1l_> Sailoreal: what is you filename?
[18:45] <maesrin> thanks for the reply gabb0, no i noticed that it has marked 188784 sectors as bad
[18:46] <maesrin> however the system boots normally , although there are some delays
[18:46] <Sailoreal> It's ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso
[18:46] <Sailoreal> k1l_
[18:46] <XenophonF> so in ubuntu, what's the program that switches from text mode to vfb? is it plymouth?
[18:46] <k1l_> Sailoreal: that is fine. 14.04 is trusty
[18:46] <Sailoreal> Okay :D
[18:46] <XenophonF> and how do i disable it?
[18:47] <gabb0> maesrin, you should test the SSD in a live boot environment with badblocks and determine for yourself what to do
[18:48] <Sailoreal> Ubuntu has a spyware?
[18:48] <k1l_> no
[18:48] <Sailoreal> Hmm
[18:48] <Sailoreal> It had in previous versions?
[18:48] <k1l_> no
[18:49] <Sailoreal> Yes, and I was able to change it in 'Privacy'
[18:49] <Sailoreal> Some months ago
[18:49] <atlaspaine> hello
[18:49] <k1l_> if you call the online search spyware than freifox is spyware, google search is spyware,.... that is just FUD
[18:49] <frimend> Oh, I didn't see any network connection in the upper right corner.
[18:49] <gabb0> Sailoreal, you dont know what spyware even is if you think that. :/
[18:49] <frimend> Couldn't manage to resolve it, so I reinstalled the system.
[18:50] <Sailoreal> gabb0, http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/12/richard-stallman-calls-ubuntu-spyware-because-it-tracks-searches/
[18:50] <atlaspaine> hey, who is 'drone.'
[18:50] <gabb0> ignore Sailoreal
[18:50] <frimend> But apparantly, I DO have internet connection, even without it being specified. :|
[18:50] <k1l_> if you dont want your search to search online set it to local only in privacy settings
[18:50] <gabb0> Sailoreal, are you in here to ask for help or waste our time?
[18:50] <Sailoreal> Okay, and gabb0 , that was just a question
[18:50] <gabb0> wrong channel, its a support channel
[18:51] <Sailoreal> Ok ...
[18:51] <frimend> I can see my connection if I do "ifconfig", but it isn't visible in the upper right corner... Why?
[18:51] <XenophonF> so i tried a legacy boot of ubuntu desktop 14.10 on my macbookpro5,1, and this time it crashed after displaying "controller found", followed by the error "[8.605492] nouveau E[   PDISP][0000:02:00.0] 01:0006:0242: no bios dp data"
[18:57] <XenophonF> i'm going to try a legacy boot with nomodeset replacing "quiet splash"
[18:59] <Whitor> Hi All. It doesn't seem like I can create multiple network profiles for my Wireless adapter like I can for my wired adapter. Is there a way around this?   I'd like to have a DHCP profile and a couple static ip profiles for testing... Any ideas?
[18:59] <Whitor> 14.04lts btw
[18:59] <Whitor> Only the WiFi SSID's appear in the network dropdown list.  Not the connections as created in Network Connection (edit connections at bottom)
[19:00] <Whitor> I gave them all a unique connection name... no workie
[19:00] <gabb0> Whitor, you can do that with bash scripting.
[19:01] <Whitor> gabb0,  Ok... I'll do it that way, but that seems a little wonky for something that works for physical ethernet adapters ... (and even lets you configure such in the Network Connections dialog... it just doesn't work)
[19:02] <gabb0> Agreed. to me, if you want it done you gotta sometimes do it your own way. :)
[19:03] <freeroute> hi, I don't want to install recommended packages, but I don't really know how to permanently set this in the system-wide configurations, I've searched and came up with this, but there appear a lot of contradicting/different solutions - http://askubuntu.com/questions/179060/how-not-to-install-recommended-and-suggested-packages
[19:06] <gabb0> freeroute, did you try all recommended syntaxes in the replies?
[19:06] <bekks> freeroute: BY default, recommended packages arent installed.
[19:08] <freeroute> oh huh, I thought it was the opposite. How can I tell which packages are marked as 'recommended'?
[19:10] <freeroute> d'oh it just tells under the 'suggested' packages
[19:12] <peraldon> Hey guys, anyone know how to install Ubuntu server 14.04 to a remote server via KVM? I'm using the CAB VM client
[19:13] <peraldon> Anyone? :c
[19:14] <atlaspaine> stab
[19:14] <atlaspaine> stab all non linux computers
[19:14] <atlaspaine> speak of which, would mac os technically be linux?
[19:15] <atlaspaine> since it is unix based?
[19:15] <XenophonF> atlaspaine: no
[19:15] <t5un4m1> hello
[19:16] <gabb0> atlaspaine, mac os is based on bsd. wrong channel for this topic.
[19:16] <t5un4m1> Does anyone know what the deal is with bluetooth in Kubuntu? I.E if you disable it, you can't re-enable it from the GUI, just from the command prompt? There are some bug complaints from years ago about this; is this still a bug, or am I experiencing an isolated issue?
[19:16] <XenophonF> atlaspaine: macosx is a derivative of nextstep with a bunch of freebsd's userspace
[19:17] <XenophonF> atlaspaine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix#mediaviewer/File:Unix_history-simple.svg
[19:18] <XenophonF> hey i got ubuntu to boot on my mac (finally)!
[19:19] <PXE-Guy> has any here ever done a PXE based install for Ubuntu Desktop? how do i tell it to install desktop instead of server? or get it to be in advanced mode?
[19:19] <atlaspaine> @gabb0 sorry, i don't know how this works, beginner here over here. now do i know how i got here or how to switch channels, guide me maybe?
[19:19] <chris112> hi, apt-get upgrade constantly gets stuck at unpack ntp (ubuntu trusty). tried apt-get clean, update, upgrade. reinstall etc. even when i try dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq ntp it gets stuck and just sits there :(
[19:20] <XenophonF> I had to do a legacy boot, press f6 for other options, hit escape, and replace "quiet splace" on the boot options line with "nomodeset"
[19:20] <ianp> how do i open a terminal in ubnutu desktop ?
[19:20] <ianp> unity
[19:20] <ianp> I just did a fresh install of it... tried searching for 'terminal' and 'console' in the search thingy
[19:22] <ianp> I guess it's not installed by default on the server distro. I installed server and then installed ubuntu-desktoip
[19:22] <atlaspaine> is it possible to send files in this thing?
[19:23] <SchrodingersScat> !pastebin | atlaspaine
[19:23] <gabb0> ianp,  hit CTRL-ALT-T in unity
[19:23] <gabb0> atlaspaine, try the channels app in your irc program.
[19:23] <atlaspaine> What is "!pastebin?"
[19:24] <Whitor> Does anyone have any real world experience with NVidia Optimus technology?   I'm wondering how well 14.04 handles this... or If I have to manually setup Bumblebee or Primus or something...  any idea?     Is it stable? should I run in discrete mode entirely ?
[19:24] <SchrodingersScat> atlaspaine: it's a factoid, what are you trying to send? maybe I don't understand the context, !details
[19:25] <atlaspaine> @schrodingersscat i don't have a context, just trying to understand this thing i've gotten into, apparently it's called "irc"
[19:25] <atlaspaine> Have any of you tried Windows 8 dualbooted with Ubuntu?
[19:25] <astard> hello, is there some sort of minimal ubuntu I can install? I don't need or desire X or a GUI in any way. my goal is the least disk and memory use.
[19:26] <BluesKaj> !irc | atlaspaine
[19:26] <Whitor> astard, ubuntu server
[19:26] <gabb0> atlaspaine, yes
[19:26] <astard> Whitor, thanks, i'll check it out
[19:26] <atlaspaine> No, no, no. I wish to know what this is and how it works
[19:26] <Whitor> astard, or lubuntu ... but that has a gui
[19:27] <atlaspaine> op! ubottu happens to have guided me, merci
[19:27] <gabb0> atlaspaine, head to youtube and watch some intro videos for irc
[19:27] <atlaspaine> @gabb0, how has the dualboot fared for you?
[19:27] <BluesKaj> atlaspaine, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat
[19:27] <gabb0> no offense, but dont waste our time with those questions. :)
[19:28] <gabb0> atlaspaine, as long as you do windows first its easy
[19:28] <astard> Whitor, yeah i've used server before and have been very pleased. so your suggestion is spot on. thank you. 595MB download :) nice
[19:28] <gabb0> atlaspaine, if you do windows last, you need some post-install boot fixes
[19:28] <BluesKaj> gabb0, not so easy anymore with UEFI
[19:28] <atlaspaine> Wasting time? I came here for guidance. And the real reason I came here was because someone told me to ping jml on freenode in this channel
[19:29] <gabb0> BluesKaj, ahh true that
[19:29] <gabb0> atlaspaine, if you need a primer on irc, this isnt the place to ask
[19:29] <atlaspaine> What is a primer?
[19:29] <ldlework> Does any one know what this means? ERROR: ld.so: object 'libdlfaker.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

[19:58] <BluesKaj> open "it" ? atlaspaine , what's "it" ?
[19:59] <atlaspaine> when I enter " kdesudo dolphin /etc/apt/sources.list.d" after alt+f2 this "scope" open up
[19:59] <atlaspaine> I enter into this what you instructed
[19:59] <atlaspaine> a gear comes up with the same title as the command you told me to enter
[20:00] <atlaspaine> but I cannot open it to access what ever is stored within that you wish to see
[20:00] <trism> freeroute: I'm not sure what you are asking, do you want it to always ask for confirmation (I don't see any options to do that) or never ask for confirmation (in which case there is the -y option, though I don't really recommend that, since it is better to see what will happen before you try it)
[20:01] <BluesKaj> atlaspaine,sorry again, forgot where I was  :)  correction  alt+F2 gksudo dolphin /etc/apt/sources.list.d , copy and paste the contents of "getdeb.list.bck" to pastebin,com, and post the resulting url here after choosing submit
[20:01] <freeroute> trism: yeah I want the former (always ask confirmation). If there is no option in apt.conf or something I suppose I can use the -s flag (simulate).
[20:02] <BluesKaj> I keep making mistakes in my old atlaspaine , gksudo nautilus /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[20:02] <trism> freeroute: yeah there is that, although it is kind of annoying to have to check all the time. it would be nice if it would just always prompt.
[20:02] <BluesKaj> my old age
[20:03] <ioria> BluesKaj, lol
[20:04] <BluesKaj> I need a break anyway ...BBL, stuff to do for an hr or so.
[20:07] <MeXTuX> BluesKaj: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/youtube.jpg this is the only thing I see
[20:07] <freeroute> trism: someone over at #linux recommended this to me - http://libraryhacker.org/2011/09/09/apt-listchanges/
[20:08] <tics2> hola como creo un chat interno

[20:08] <tics2> holaaaaaa
[20:08] <tics2> ayudaaaaa
[20:09] <celine-ub> hello
[20:09] <trism> freeroute: apt-listchanges is very good, but it won't fix this problem because it only shows the changelogs on upgrade
[20:09] <tics2> ayuda
[20:09] <celine-ub> ayuda ?
[20:09] <tics2> ayuda -???
[20:09] <celine-ub> hablas espanol ?

[20:09] <KingOfOOP> Where is the path of installed GUI packages ???
[20:10] <bekks> KingOfOOP: Depends on the package you installed.
[20:10] <KingOfOOP> For example : Code::Blocks
[20:11] <bekks> KingOfOOP: You have to take a look into the package contents, to find your information desired.
[20:11] <trism> freeroute: no, it only shows a changelog of a package currently install when you upgrade it (unless it has some hidden option I don't know about, I have it set to confirm here but I get no prompts on fresh installs)
[20:11] <Pici> KingOfOOP: The binary gets stuck in /usr/bin/codeblocks, the config and other libraries are put elsewhere
[20:11] <Pici> KingOfOOP: dpkg -L codeblocks will show you everything
[20:11] <ph88> hey guys i try to make my home and end key work in the terminal  od -C  HOME END gives ^[[1~^[[4~   and i have   "\e[1~": beginning-of-line "\e[4~": end-of-line   configured, is that right ?
[20:12] <ph88> is \e the same as ^[  ?
[20:12] <atlaspaine> bluekaj, it asked for my password, which I reluctantly provided, then it simply open a window with a directory of: /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[20:12] <celine-ub> what do you think of mate ?
[20:14] <KingOfOOP> Pici: So , all of the apps won't install on a specified folder ????
[20:15] <Pici> KingOfOOP: no, parts of packages get installed into various places.  manpages in one place, binaries in another, configs in another, libraries elsewhere.. etc.
[20:16] <KingOfOOP> How to install VMware Workstation ??
[20:16] <KingOfOOP> version 10 for 32 bit
[20:17] <TheNumb> KingOfOOP: run the installation file...
[20:17] <KingOfOOP> TheNumb: ?
[20:17] <KingOfOOP> TheNumb: What installation file ?
[20:17] <TheNumb> it comes with an installer
[20:17] <TheNumb> blahblah.bundle
[20:17] <TheNumb> right?
[20:17] <KingOfOOP> TheNumb: I don't have any installer !
[20:17] <bekks> More likely "*.run" :)
[20:18] <TheNumb> then why are you asking how to install vmware?
[20:18] <KingOfOOP> TheNumb: I mean download & install of course ...
[20:18] <TheNumb> KingOfOOP: buy it, download, install
[20:18] <TheNumb> ez
[20:19] <KingOfOOP> There is no free edition ??
[20:19] <TheNumb> no
[20:19] <TheNumb> there's vmware player
[20:19] <bekks> KingOfOOP: http://pubs.vmware.com/workstation-10/index.jsp#com.vmware.ws.get_started.doc/GUID-7179281C-903A-46A9-89EE-C10B126D4960.html
[20:19] <bekks> After purchasing VMware Workstation, just follow the installation documentation.
[20:19] <Sparky> King0f00P: there is virtualbox ...
[20:20] <KingOfOOP> Sparky: How to get it ?? is it free ?
[20:20] <TheNumb> KingOfOOP: it's in the repository.
[20:20] <Sparky> just google it ;)
[20:20] <TheNumb> And it's opensource.
[20:21] <KingOfOOP> TheNumb: Ok. thanks.

[20:28] <jhutchins> New_User_Ubuntu: Your format/syntax is probably incorrect.  You could pastebin your list.
[20:29] <New_User_Ubuntu> pastebin ?

[20:31] <New_User_Ubuntu> got it , i learnt it yest just forgot
[20:31] <thekkid> Is it normal behavior for a suspended job to be resumed by the command name? i.e. if I ctrl-z vim then type vim it resumes it instead of opening a new one.
[20:32] <craigbass76> This may be more a LibreOffice question, but I'm hoping someone in here has run into it.  I'm trying to connect to mysql from libreoffice, but I'm not seeing Java as one of the choices (from LibreOffice) in Tools > Options like I'd expect.

[20:34] <rasta> Any Google DFP experts around?

[20:35]  * jhutchins googles "google dfp"
[20:35] <rasta> Pici: do u know about DFP?
[20:35] <rasta> jhutchins: I did that
[20:35] <Pici> rasta: I don't even know what it stood for until a minute ago.  It doesn't sound like an issue that Ubuntu support can help with though.  Perhaps there is a more relevant channel on freenode for it though.

[20:36] <rasta> Pici: help me find a channel
[20:37] <Pici> rasta: #freenode should be able to do that, #ubuntu cannot.
[20:37] <New_User_Ubuntu> bprompt : yeah i read it
[20:37] <jhutchins> rasta: That's a google issue.  They don't do irc, they do forums and mailing lists.
[20:37] <rasta> jhutchins: where can i get help?

[20:47] <crazydiamond> Hi. I'm trying to establish software access point (to connect PDA to the internet from my laptop) using ap-hotspot and hostapd. The problem is that when I run ap-hotspot first time, connection establishes (there is log file http://dpaste.com/0XMPTNZ ), but when I stop the daemon (or e.g. disable and re-enable wifi) than it fails (log file is http://dpaste.com/1VZWGD4 )
[20:50] <bprompt_> hmm
[20:50] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     so....you saved it, as root that is, in /etc/apt/sources.list   right?
[20:51] <New_User_Ubuntu> yes
[20:51] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:    and it gave an error on line 63 again?
[20:51] <kahtahs> crazydiamond: sounds unneeded complex with ap-hotspot and hostapd when you could just use network manager: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpa/+bug/1209511
[20:51] <New_User_Ubuntu> yes
[20:52] <xcyclist> Say, I've got an ec2 account with ubuntu, but the danged thing won't let me access when I add a user as per AWS instructions.  Anyone out there see this gotcha?
[20:52] <crazydiamond> kahtahs, yep NM is good now, but, it can establish only ad-hoc IIRC, no?
[20:52] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     but there's was line 63 in the file :/   well... the one you posted... has line 63 commented anyhow
[20:53] <bprompt_> s/was/was no/
[20:54] <New_User_Ubuntu> you mean a / is required at the end
[20:54] <New_User_Ubuntu> the output is starting from the comment i gave
[20:55] <New_User_Ubuntu> so its increased by 2 lines i guess
[20:56] <New_User_Ubuntu> bprompt: wow
[20:56] <New_User_Ubuntu> i added a slash and the error is gone
[20:56] <New_User_Ubuntu> now only warning

[20:59] <New_User_Ubuntu> pasting the error for your reference
[21:00] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     yeah... that doesn't matter much... just say "y" to ok it, simply means they didn't issue a gpg key for the ppa, some do, some don'tr
[21:00] <New_User_Ubuntu> oh so its installed correctly
[21:00] <New_User_Ubuntu> can i go ahead with the installation
[21:00] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     then do a "sudo apt-get update"   then try the install

[21:01] <New_User_Ubuntu> after update
[21:01] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:      right... tis ok anyhow

[21:03] <BluesKaj> there should be GPG Key available for that repos/ppa if that's what it is
[21:06] <New_User_Ubuntu> BluesKaj: where can i find it ?
[21:07] <New_User_Ubuntu> i mean is there any command to retrieve the key ?
[21:08] <varaindemian> is anybody reading me?
[21:08] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: Yes. If nobody around knows the answer to your question, then nobody will respond.
[21:09] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: Repeating your question after about 10 minutes is sometimes helpful, as different people will be available.
[21:09] <varaindemian> Thanks for your reply. I am new to irc :D
[21:09] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:      it doesn't matter much in order to access the ppa files though, some issue a gpg IIRC, some don't, thus the apt-get says that it can't verify such and such, is just a way to let folks know that, an extra certification info, hasn't been provided reliably, and thus you should be aware of that in case you didn't know
[21:09] <Guest16646> for some reason I can't get grub to recognize my new win 7 install, how can i fix this?

[21:11] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     think about it as ..... a gpg vendor is a vendor with a fancy dress and car, one without is just a fellow with a startup product, doesn't mean it's bad, just very new or for specifics only

[21:14] <rpp601> hey guys, i'm trying to make an alias that has " in it already, so alias thinks when i do 'alias notify="etc work notfy blah"" it's screwing it up, is there a way around this?
[21:15] <gsd> rpp601: escape the first double quote with a \
[21:15] <bprompt_> rpp601:     try escaping it \"
[21:16] <bprompt_> rpp601:     alias    NAME="echo \"hello my name is the long ranger\"";
[21:16] <rpp601> so it would go from ": "Job Finished", "body": "Work Done!"}'" to e": "Job Finished", "body": "Work Done!"}'\"
[21:17] <nrdb> I would like to allow the user 'remote' to only be able to run the '/root/aoe' without a password .... I have tried to work out the sudoers line but I am not sure its correct.  can someone help please.
[21:17] <rpp601> i'll play with it
[21:18] <bprompt_> rpp601:    hmm you'd escape the double-quotes INSIDE the "   "  section, no the other way around
[21:18] <Jordan_U> rpp601: What is your end goal in creating this alias? For anything even remotely complex I tent to simply define functions rather than trying to use an alias.
[21:18] <rpp601> ok, let me show you the actual command and output
[21:18] <rpp601> its a push
[21:19] <rpp601> alias workdone="curl -u xxxxxx: -X POST https://api.pushbullet.com/v2/pushes --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-binary '{"type": "note", "title": "Job Finished", "body": "Work Done!"}'"

[21:20] <gabb0> BBLLCC, hard to tell from over here.. you 100% certain you didn't change a view config that is hiding it?

[21:24] <bprompt_> rpp601:  !"}"     event not found, sounds like, it exited the "alias" block section and tried to get a prompt history call,   like say to get the history command in say line 25    -> !25  to fetch it, thus
[21:25] <varaindemian> Jordan_U: can you give me al the commands needed for connecting to ubuntu channel?
[21:25] <anonymous__> hello
[21:25] <bprompt_> allo
[21:25] <rpp601> that didn't work, i'll just copy and paste that long command
[21:26] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: For irssi you would run "/connect irc.freenode.net" then "/nick your_nick" then "/join #ubuntu".
[21:26] <geirha> bprompt_: You cannot escape history expansion inside double quotes. The only way around it is to disable history expansion by running   set +H
[21:27] <bprompt_> geirha:    hmm rpp601 <--- is trying to get an alias set to a "curl" call with the arguments, trying to use the double-quotes in the alias, thus
[21:27] <geirha> bprompt_: or in this case, you can avoid it by using a function instead, since that will drop one level of quoting
[21:27] <geirha> bprompt_: Oh, I should have read more of the backlog

[21:28] <cRLH> i wanna test something, does anyone wanna help me?
[21:28] <geirha> rpp601: use a function instead:  unalias workdone; workdone() { curl -u xxxxxx: -X POST https://api.pushbullet.com/v2/pushes --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-binary '{"type": "note", "title": "Job Finished", "body": "Work Done!"}'; }

[21:29] <rpp601> geirha: k lemme try it
[21:29] <Jordan_U> wsky: Ubuntu hides the grub menu by default, so that is normal.
[21:29] <wsky> Jordan_U: ah i see, how would i make it appear?
[21:30] <rpp601> geirha: no error, then workdone becomes my command?
[21:30] <geirha> rpp601: yup
[21:31] <rpp601> you are a wizard!
[21:31] <geirha> run:  type workdone   to see what type of command it is
[21:31] <rpp601> oh wow, i totally get it. THANKS guys
[21:31] <BluesKaj> New_User_Ubuntu, run this in a terminal,  sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E084DAB9 , I copied it from this site,  http://cran.stat.ucla.edu/
[21:32] <bmomjian> My network "Edit connections" is greyed out on Ubuntu 12.04.  Any ideas on the cause?  Also, "VPN/Configure VPN" is also greyed out.
[21:34] <wsky> Jordan_U: anyways, i got it working, thanks
[21:34] <rpp601> geirha:  one more thing, if i control + z a job that's been running for 90+ hours.... is there a chance 'fg' will not work?
[21:35] <BluesKaj> bmomjian, do you have a vpn client installed?
[21:35] <rpp601> geirha: rather... how dependable is 'fg'?
[21:36] <bmomjian> no, I do not.  I have another laptop, same OS, that does have both options not greyed out.  Neither use VPNs.
[21:36] <bmomjian> I tried uninstalling/installing the network manager, no change
[21:36] <geirha> rpp601: there are some corner cases where ctrl+z and fg doesn't do the expected. One case is when a loop construct is involved in the interactive shell, and one is when it's an external command that is very poorly written. Most likely you'll hit neither.
[21:37] <geirha> rpp601: If you think it's hanging, you might want to attach strace to it, to see what it's doing
[21:37] <rpp601> geirha: thanks again
[21:37] <BluesKaj> bmomjian, have you updated and upgraded lately ? I have to ask .
[21:38] <bmomjian> yes, I have
[21:38] <bmomjian> well minor upgrades, yes, have been on 12.04 for a while
[21:38] <rpp601> geirha: no, my thinking was this. to control z the program - then run 'fg; workdone' get it?
[21:39] <geirha> rpp601: Ah, yes. That should work fine.
[21:39] <bmomjian> I checked /usr/share/polkit-1/actions;  same on working and non-working laptops
[21:39] <BluesKaj> bmomjian, try a dist-upgrade
[21:40] <bmomjian> oh, wow, that sounds severe
[21:40] <BluesKaj> no it's not, it's amethod to bring existing packages up to date
[21:41] <alinmear> hey guys! is there a way to mask all packages of an repository/ppa. e.g. i want to install 2 programs from getdeb repo but nothing more and don't wanna have something else pulled in. coming from gentoo there are package.masks to do so. is there an equivalent in ubuntu world?
[21:41] <mrkent> Does apt cache old packages that got upgraded?
[21:41] <bmomjian> what is odd is that I can access wired and wireless just fine from System Settings/Network
[21:41] <bmomjian> it is only from the nm-applet that there is a problem
[21:43] <rpp601> geirha: any reason my new function won't work from screen?
[21:43] <BluesKaj> bmomjian, I have to go
[21:43] <geirha> rpp601: did you put it in .bashrc?
[21:43] <bmomjian> thanks for trying
[21:43] <rpp601> geirha: of course not
[21:44] <rpp601> lol
[21:44] <geirha> rpp601: then that might be why :)
[21:44] <bprompt_> heheh
[21:45] <Joel> how can I get the description of a .deb without installing it?
[21:46] <Joel> dpkg - p only works on installed packages
[21:48] <OerHeks> apt-cache search <package>
[21:50] <rpp601> geirha: do i have to define the whole thing again in bash?
[21:51] <geirha> rpp601: the whole function? yes. It's only one command in there, so it's not that long
[21:51] <Joel> OerHeks, it was actually dpkg -f, thanks though
[21:52] <geirha> In a shell where you do have that function defined, you can write:   declare -f workdone >> ~/.bashrc
[21:52] <rpp601> geirha: :) k
[21:52] <geirha> to make it "permanent", so to speak
[21:53] <spaceindaver> Hi all, I was messing around with a game engine yesterday and my system crashed. After I rebooted and logged in unity failed to launch. All I get is my desktop background without the unity launcher, the status bar at the top and no window borders
[21:53] <spaceindaver> After checking some logs I found that compiz failed to load opengl
[21:53] <weezybusy> Hello there!
[21:53] <gabb0> spaceindaver, make another account, login to it and if it works its probably a userspace issue
[21:53] <bprompt> allo
[21:54] <spaceindaver> Hello :-)
[21:54] <spaceindaver> Okay, I'll give that a go
[21:54] <gabb0> spaceindaver, since i answered before you typed the second line, my advice might not prove anything,...still worth a try tho
[21:55] <rpp601> geirha: it's in there but screen doesn't seem to want to do it yet. could it be that i need to restart screen?
[21:55] <bmomjian> OK, new report;  the updates for 12.04 today have disabled the nm-applet "Edit Connections".  I just did a restart of the nm-applet after a 12.04 update and the problem happened.  I already had this problem on another laptop today.  Where do I report this?
[21:56] <bmomjian> No wonder I could not find a report of this on Launchpad or via Google
[21:56] <spaceindaver> Hello again, I was able to login with my guest account and everything works fine. Any idea how I can fix my other account?
[21:56] <rpp601> bmomjian: the 'edit connections' has been buggy for me forever
[21:57] <geirha> rpp601: ah, it's a long running shell in there? well you can source .bashrc again, or exec a new bash.     source ~/.bashrc   # the former
[21:57] <Jordan_U> !bug | bmomjian
[21:57] <DorkSector> How do I ensure that when I connect a ubuntu machine to a network, I get to know the IP it's on? Say I have a machine with a config and power it on and just connect it to the network. I don't have access to it except via the network, so how do I get to know its IP?
[21:58] <Ben64> DorkSector: depends how you have your network set up
[21:58] <__david> !help
[21:58] <DorkSector> Ben64, hmm, what if it's a simple home network and I have the mac address of the machine (when I mean simple network, just a local wifi network connected to WAN via a router)
[21:59] <DorkSector> __david, was that for me?4
[21:59] <__david> !patience
[21:59] <__david> no DorkSector
[21:59] <DorkSector> okay
[22:00] <MLM> DorkSector: You could try: "curl wtfismyip.com/json"
[22:00] <Ben64> DorkSector: either look in your router's config page to see the ip it got, or ping scan the network, or listen to arp stuff using wireshark
[22:00] <DorkSector> MLM that would give you your IP on the WAN, specifically the IP wtfismyip can see. I meant my IP on the local Wireless network
[22:01] <DorkSector> Ben64, Ah but that's the thing, I can't have users doing that. I am connecting my Pi to the network and want the users to do minimal work to get the IP
[22:01] <Ben64> i don't see how this is related to Ubuntu support
[22:02] <DorkSector> Ben64, Because my Pi runs Ubuntu
[22:02] <Ben64> #ubuntu-arm maybe, but this still seems less like an OS thing, and more like a ##networking thing
[22:02] <DorkSector> Gotcha, thanks!
[22:02] <OerHeks> give it a static ip
[22:03] <DorkSector> OerHeks, not always possible, what if it's taken (sorry, I should've been more clear, the user is connecting a new node to his network)
[22:03] <DorkSector> It's fine, I'll ask on ##networking
[22:03] <DorkSector> Thanks anyway
[22:04] <Joel> DorkSector, service discovery.
[22:04] <Joel> there are many MANY ways to do so.
[22:04] <DorkSector> Joel, let me google that
[22:05] <DorkSector> Joel, turns out that's very generic, could you be a little more specific please?
[22:05] <Joel> DorkSector, avahi
[22:06] <Joel> that is one of MANY
[22:06] <Joel> apple's famous for creating bonjour
[22:08] <bmomjian> OK, nm-applet bug report submitted for Ubuntu 12.04.
[22:08] <bmomjian> thanks for suggesting an update might have broken it
[22:09] <DorkSector> Joel, hmm, that might be something, thanks!
[22:10] <isomorphismes> I'm usually confused which things should be started with eg "lightdm" and which should be started with "service start lightdm". What's the difference between the types of programs and how do you know which style to use when?
[22:12] <k1l> things you start with service are upstart services. that are base"programs".
[22:12] <New_User_Ubuntu> i issued this command tar xvzf rmr2_3.3.1.tar.gz
[22:12] <New_User_Ubuntu> and the file got gunzipped and stored in the folder
[22:13] <New_User_Ubuntu> but as per instructions i am supposed to issue ./configure
[22:13] <New_User_Ubuntu> but if i give that command in the folder its giving an error
[22:14] <k1l> is there a configure script in the folder? see with "ls -al"
[22:15] <New_User_Ubuntu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10436990/
[22:15] <New_User_Ubuntu> doesn't look like it
[22:16] <k1l> yep
[22:16] <New_User_Ubuntu> is there any other way to install that file
[22:17] <k1l> i dont know what you are doing there at all. it sounds like you want to compile something
[22:17] <New_User_Ubuntu> i have file that has an extension .tar.gz
[22:17] <New_User_Ubuntu> i want to install it , so i used xvzf rmr2_3.3.1.tar.gz
[22:18] <New_User_Ubuntu> to zip it and it became a folder
[22:18] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     didn't you just installed that ppa?    and it gave you that file?   the idea behind the ppa is that it'd do all the installing automatically
[22:19] <New_User_Ubuntu> bprompt_: i have moved further after that
[22:19] <bprompt_> k
[22:19] <New_User_Ubuntu> i am trying to install the packages for installing R
[22:20] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:     well. you do have .configure in that listing... so    "./configure"   should run, assuming the file has execution permission, if not, chmod a+x on it
[22:20] <bprompt_> New_User_Ubuntu:      "./.configure"    rather
[22:22] <k1l> New_User_Ubuntu: you need to get things sorted. you dont install that .tar.gz
[22:22] <k1l> New_User_Ubuntu: that tar.gz includes (or should include) the sourcecode and you want to compile it so you can "install" it.
[22:23] <k1l> New_User_Ubuntu: the site you gave that file from should have instructions what to do with that code.

[22:23] <aldasgasdf> hi guys, I´m using Lubuntu 14.04. Sometimes I switch to another Window Manager, which is i3. The issue that I have when I want to connect with another Wifi, I have to switch back to LXDE and choose the another network in the panel. Is there a way to trigger wifi list with a command?
[22:23] <New_User_Ubuntu> i got it from that link
[22:25] <New_User_Ubuntu> wow
[22:25] <New_User_Ubuntu> K1l super
[22:26] <New_User_Ubuntu> slowly but steadily learning ...:)
[22:27] <bprompt_> aldasgasdf:     I use lxde window manager, though I run gnome-network-manager, thus I can put a shortcut to "nm-applet" on any window manager I wish, and get the network connections list, I'd think you could do the same for "i3", and give it a shortcut to a dock or system tray it may have
[22:27] <samuel_> m
[22:27] <samuel_> h
[22:28] <aldasgasdf> bprompt_, thank you for your reply. Should I download the package gnome-network-manager or is this package preinstalled in my lubuntu?
[22:29] <Guest16646> I have no sound playback in rhythmbox, how can i fix this?
[22:30] <bprompt_> aldasgasdf:     not sure if Lubuntu includes it, but you can check with ->    dpkg --list | network-manager-gnome;    if not there, then install it, sure ->   sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[22:31] <bprompt_> aldasgasdf:      and once install, you'd use the "nm-applet" to call the manager from anywhere
[22:33] <bprompt_> hmmm
[22:34] <bprompt_> aldasgasdf:    sorta  missed something therre ->    dpkg --list | grep network-manager-gnome:      to check for it =)
[22:34] <Vespero> What up! Got that indicator working :D
[22:35] <aldasgasdf> bprompt_, thank you. It seems working for me.
[22:35] <tos-1> bprompt_, aldasgasdf: `dpkg -l network-manager-gnome | egrep ^ii` The status "ii" is important, because it tells you, whether the package is really installed.
[22:36] <bprompt_> np
[23:04] <arun_> guys, is Xfce for Ubuntu undergoing ?
[23:05] <k1l> arun_: what do you mean?
[23:05] <compdoc> Xubuntu is pretty current
[23:05] <compdoc> its actively being updated, etc
[23:06] <arun_> compdoc: thanks
[23:06] <arun_> k1l: thanks. I got the point.
[23:06] <notdaniel> hey guys, after upgrading from 14.04.1 to 14.04.2, my display is mostly white and has lines going through it. can't see what i'm supposed to at all. i have intel integrated graphics. but plugging into an external monitor works...
[23:07] <notdaniel> also, the intel graphics driver installer which works on 14.04.1 gives an error that i don't have any intel hardware when i try to run it on 14.04.2
[23:07] <notdaniel> not sure if anyone has any thoughts, i have not had to debug display drivers really
[23:07] <Vespero> Don't have a lot of experience with Intel
[23:11] <adsfadsf> Hi guys, can somebody help me briefly on how to install this font https://github.com/lucy/tewi-font  to run it on my ubuntu. I've done the steps mention on the page, but I can't still see the font in lxappearnce
[23:11] <solsTiCe> hi. I am trying to play armagetronad on my dual screen setup. but the game is launched on the 2 screens at the same time. How do I set it up to run it on one screen ? I could disable one screen in System Settings > Display. But how to do it without disabling one screen ?
[23:13] <platz> xfce and systemd have some oddities still
[23:13] <platz> esp w/ power manager
[23:14] <bprompt_> adsfadsf:      easy,  make ~/.fonts,   it'd be there already anyway, drop font files there, done :)
[23:16] <platz> also I appear to be the last person using wicd, but chose it because it just works under i3 without a lot of deps
[23:17] <kostkon> solsTiCe, you could try this:   export SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD=1 armagetronad
[23:18] <solsTiCe> kostkon: yeah: I just found it on the web
[23:18] <kostkon> solsTiCe, ;)
[23:18] <solsTiCe> kostkon: does not work :-(
[23:21] <adsfadsf> bprompt_: thank you very much
[23:22] <bprompt_> np
[23:24] <Scatiba> wazzup
[23:26] <spaceindaver> Hi all, my compiz fails to load opengl which means unity can't start after I log in. Any idea how I can fix it?
[23:28] <k1l> spaceindaver: make sure you have the kernel headers to your kernel isntalled and the video driver gets loaded properly
[23:28] <spaceindaver> Okay, how can I check if the video driver was loaded properly?
[23:29] <k1l> see dmesg and Xorg.log
[23:29] <daftykins> spaceindaver: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:29] <k1l> but you can check if the other users can login and have the same issues
[23:30] <Scatiba> alguem pode xupar minha rola?
[23:30] <k1l> !pt | Scatiba
[23:32] <spaceindaver> daftykins, hang on, I am logged into a guest session so I could try searching for a solution, I will log in on the broken account and get the log
[23:32] <daftykins> spaceindaver: there's no point, /var/log is system wide.
[23:32] <daftykins> there's only one, not one per user
[23:32] <daftykins> just run what i said.
[23:33] <k1l> spaceindaver: does it work on the guest account?
[23:34] <UBUN> HY every one
[23:34] <daftykins> ...
[23:34] <UBUN> can someonz help me with my ubuntu problem!!
[23:35] <daftykins> not until you describe it
[23:36] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10437959/
[23:36] <UBUN> I remove java open jdk form my ubuntu version, restart the computer and it computer can't fonctionne correctly
[23:37] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, I can log in as another user and everything works fine, its just my primary account that fails to run unity
[23:37] <daftykins> oh ok. nothing to do with graphics drivers then
[23:37] <spaceindaver_> Also, sorry for any delays, my internet connection is a little flaky
[23:37] <UBUN> daftykins:  I remove java open jdk form my ubuntu version, restart the computer and it computer can't fonctionne correctly
[23:37] <daftykins> spaceindaver_: login as your affected user at a TTY, then run "ls -al ~/ | pastebinit"
[23:37] <daftykins> UBUN: ask the channel, not me
[23:37] <k1l> spaceindaver_: if it works for other users then its a user setting. maybe reset the users gnome settings then
[23:38] <spaceindaver_> kil, how can I reset the gnome settings?
[23:38] <daftykins> you rename the gnome folders
[23:38] <daftykins> in your ~
[23:39] <UBUN> daftykins: I did it
[23:40] <UBUN> before ask you
[23:41] <spaceindaver_> daftylkins, here is the ouput from "ls -al ~/" http://paste.ubuntu.com/10438010/
[23:42] <daftykins> ugh that's messy
[23:42] <mazzy> hi. who can help me fix an issue with iptables?
[23:42] <daftykins> ##networking
[23:43] <mazzy> thank you daftykins
[23:43] <genii> daftykins: Craploads of Xauthority files in there
[23:43] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, yeah sorry, I have had this laptop for a while :-p
[23:43] <daftykins> spaceindaver_: can you pastebin ~/.Xauthority and .xsession-errors ?
[23:46] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, here is my xsession-errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10438097/ I couldn't do my Xauthority
[23:46] <daftykins> how come?
[23:47] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, pastebinit crashed with a unicode error
[23:47] <daftykins> heh
[23:47] <UBUN> any one to help me??
[23:48] <daftykins> your Xorg log suggests you're using only intel graphics on a laptop, so drivers weren't going to be much of an issue
[23:48] <daftykins> spaceindaver_: so on your affected user, try "mv ~/.config ~/.configold" then restart, see if unity works
[23:48] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, well I have an Nvidia card as well, I use primusrun to launch progams with that
[23:49] <daftykins> oh? your log said nothing about it
[23:49] <TijG> UBUN: just ask your question, somebody will anwser
[23:49] <daftykins> usually they mention both
[23:49] <UBUN> TijG: thank's
[23:50] <daftykins> UBUN: what language do you speak?
[23:50] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, yeah I thought that was weird too. I'm not sure what I did to break it either, was trying out a game dev library and my system crashed, when I rebooted unity failed to launch, maybe it messed with my configuration in some way
[23:50] <daftykins> not if another user works, nah
[23:50] <UBUN> so, my ubuntu can't restart after removing java open jdk, what should I do!!
[23:51] <daftykins> ubuntu does not rely upon java to run, so that's a bit weird.
[23:51] <UBUN> daftykins: french or arabic :)
[23:51] <daftykins> !fr
[23:51] <spaceindaver_> daftykins, I will mv my config and reboot, see what happens. Thanks for the help though :-)
[23:51] <daftykins> no problemo
[23:51] <TijG> UBUN: can't restart? what do you mean? does "sudo reboot" work in Terminal?
[23:53] <UBUN> TijG: I means by that, when I restart my computer afer the java open jdk being removing, I can't acess my ubuntu desktop
[23:54] <TijG> UBUN: what doesn't work? what do you expect to see?
[23:54] <genii> UBUN: How did you remove it, through the Software Center or some other way?
[23:54] <TijG> the graphical interface, does that work?
[23:54] <TijG> do you get some sort of error message?
[23:55] <UBUN> TijG: I can not access my desktop on unbutu , he stops in the middle
[23:55] <TijG> UBUN: the middle?
[23:57] <delinquentme> the defacto development machine for ubuntu ....
[23:57] <delinquentme> MBP? or a ThinkPad?
[23:57] <TijG> ThinkPad
[23:57] <UBUN> TijG: I mean, it can't display the desktop, it stops before
[23:58] <spaceindaver> daftykins, unity is back! thanks for all the help :-)
