[00:00] <zeeble> To paste, you do Ctrl Shift V
[00:00] <zeeble> Ctrl V shows up as ^V
[00:00] <Kuroshita> Seven_Six_Two, nah I'm just a regular Joe with an Ubuntu install, nothing more
[00:00] <kiorky> does someone have the kernel parameters to use with 14.04 ? , the ones contained in te iso do not work ...
[00:00] <Seven_Six_Two> Amy_Lu_Who, that's an important command. I can type that one faster than I can type my email address.
[00:00] <darkangel> Hey i was woundering does Ubuntu OS make your Hard Ware in ur desktop Last Longer?
[00:01] <kiorky> (on a gruB2 bootable usb stick)
[00:01] <zeeble> I used the default switches kiorky .. wouldn't know
[00:01] <Seven_Six_Two> Kuroshita, then no, it's open, so you can do with it as you please, within the terms of the licenses.
[00:01] <Bashing-om> kiorky: Do you not have ubuntu installed onto the hard disk of the machine ?
[00:01] <zeeble> darkangel: No. The only way h/w lasts longer is if your rig runs cooler.
[00:01] <Seven_Six_Two> !GPL | Kuroshita
[00:01] <professor_soap> Seven_Six_Two: CUPS wont authorize me, using correct root login.
[00:02] <darkangel> ok thx
[00:02] <Amy_Lu_Who> ok, well I am taking notes by the dozen so I will jot that down.
[00:02] <kiorky> Bashing-om: no, for a bunch of new boxes, i was used to make an, usbstick with lot of bootable iso on iit
[00:02] <kiorky> Bashing-om: having a stick == only one install is just dumb
[00:02] <Seven_Six_Two> professor_soap, there should be a log for it in /var/log but I don't have cups (or a printer) (or another pc to test it with) so I am not sure
[00:02] <Kuroshita> Seven_Six_Two, awesome, that makes me feel a lot more comfortable about it
[00:02] <Beldar> fergal32, Couple questions, 1. is the computers hardware sufficient and do you know the graphic hardware. 2. Have you checked the sum of the download, and or tried to boot the usb on another computer?
[00:03] <kiorky> Bashing-om: (like having backtrace, sysrescuecd, gentoo, ubuntu on the same usbstick, up to 12.04, this was easy to do with grub2.)
[00:03] <Seven_Six_Two> biab >> phone call
[00:04] <Bashing-om> kiorky: I knew there was some changes to grub2 in 14.04, unaware of how it would affect booting the USBstick.
[00:05] <kiorky> Bashing-om: pastebin.com/imUhkckh
[00:06] <Bashing-om> kiorky:  looking at imUhkck .,
[00:06] <kiorky> Bashing-om: the first entry is soemthing that starts my 14.04 iso but this is missing soemthing as the debian installer says 'no cdrom'
[00:06] <rypervenche> kiorky: I have the same thing set up.
[00:06] <sudormrf> hey guys!  could someone help me answer a couple of questions about this dhcpd.conf?  I think I understand most everything I am looking at, but I do have a couple of questions. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455025/
[00:06] <rypervenche> kiorky: Let me see what I used to fix it.
[00:07] <kiorky> rypervenche: thx !
[00:08] <daftykins> sudormrf: you *again*!
[00:09] <sudormrf> daftykins, yes, I am always around to learn new things :)
[00:09] <Bashing-om> kiorky: Sorry, I know that there have been changes in grub in 14.04, I have not to this time installed 14.04 and am not qualified to offer an opinion in this instance.
[00:09] <Amy_Lu_Who> great the "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade" is done.  do I go back to the Ubuntu software center and try WINE again or do I use the terminal?
[00:10] <kiorky> Bashing-om: well rypervenche may have a clue o hope
[00:10] <kiorky> *i hope
[00:10] <daftykins> sudormrf: that router IP is wrong, starting the range at 100 - 254 is curious and .1.2 for DNS is weird
[00:12] <Bashing-om> kiorky: I then am standing by also to "learn new things" !
[00:12] <rypervenche> kiorky: This is what I use for 14.04: http://ryp.io/3m
[00:12] <kiorky> rypervenche: not for the server cd i think
[00:12] <HM06> somehow I've managed to disable my unity plugin from ccsm in trusty, and now logging into my account just shows my wallpaper and nothing else
[00:12] <HM06> any ideas?
[00:12] <kiorky> rypervenche: as this one do not have any casper folder in the iso
[00:13] <rypervenche> kiorky: Oh, sorry. Yeah I'm still having that problem with Debian. Let me figure that oneout.
[00:13] <nith1210> HM06: Are you asking how to get unity back?
[00:13] <HM06> nith1210: I am, yes
[00:14] <nith1210> HM06: does CTRL+ALT+T bring up a terminal?
[00:14] <HM06> nope
[00:14] <nith1210> CTRL+ALT+F1; log in then type DISPLAY=:0 ccsm
[00:14] <kiorky> rypervenche: yep just verified, the desktop folder have a casper folder
[00:14] <HM06> I can log into the root account and his desktop works fine though
[00:14] <Yelu> professor_soap, add your user to group lpadmin with sudo adduser <user> lpadmin (log out and log in again with that <user>). the logs live in /var/log/cups/...
[00:14] <kiorky> rypervenche: the server cd does not have this folder
[00:14] <nith1210> HM06: CTRL+ALT+F1; log in then type DISPLAY=:0 ccsm
[00:15] <HM06> I'm currently talking to you through irssi on tty6
[00:15] <nith1210> HM06: so open another TTY, set DISPLAY and run ccsm, then go back to tty7 to view it
[00:16] <professor_soap> Yelu: ok! Thx, will try that now.
[00:16] <HM06> nith1210: alright, ccsm is open
[00:17] <nith1210> HM06: look for Ubuntu Unity Plugin, click it and on the left hand side will be a checkbox "Enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin"
[00:17] <HM06> nith1210: nith1210 it's already checked
[00:18] <professor_soap> Yelo: doesnt work
[00:18] <bluezone> Can someone explain a small piece of documentation to me? Control+F: 'ssh -C -D 1080 laptop' at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding  is laptop the name of the computer?
[00:18] <professor_soap> Yelu: I have added the user
[00:19] <professor_soap> Yelu: logged out and logged in
[00:19] <nith1210> HM06: Ok, ccsm isn't the issue. If you run "unity --replace" from the tty, does it show anything useful?
[00:19] <professor_soap> Yelu: im browsing into the CUPS web interface remotely from another machine
[00:19] <professor_soap> Yelu: CUPS asks for user and password but im unauthorized
[00:19] <nith1210> HM06: also, why are you logging in as root?
[00:20] <HM06> nith1210: because I wanted to check if it worked when my user account didn't
[00:20] <HM06> nith1210: what should I be looking for in unity --replace?
[00:21] <rypervenche> kiorky: Let me try my new setup. brb
[00:21] <HM06> nith1210: also, it seems to keep my gtk and icon themes, but no launcher, dash, hotkeys, etc
[00:22] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, thankyou!  I got it now
[00:22] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: all working?
[00:23] <nith1210> HM06: I'm looking for startup failures specifically. THings that start with ERROR.
[00:23] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, yes, it is.  i think.  it launched.  will you say thankyou to seven six two for me?
[00:23] <nith1210> HM06: DISPLAY=:0 unity --replace > unity.log 2>&1
[00:23] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: sure :) enjoy o/
[00:23] <nith1210> HM06: wait for a minute, then CTRL+C
[00:23] <Bashing-om> bluezone: do termianl command -> uname -a <- 2nd field is the "name".
[00:23] <nith1210> HM06: then cat unity.log | pastebinit
[00:23] <bluezone> Basically what i'm asking is, to use the method described in the documentation for Dynamic port fowarding with ssh, my localhost has to accept incoming connections on port 22 right? Bashing-om
[00:24] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, I'm sure I'll be back for more tech support.  :)  thanks and goodbye
[00:24] <HM06> nith1210: there's nothig starting with ERROR
[00:25] <Bashing-om> bluezone: port 22 is the standard port for ssh, yes ( but can be reassigned).
[00:25] <bluezone> i see
[00:25] <Yelu> professor_soap, when I'm going to http://<IP_ADDRESS>:631/ (cups startpage on LAN) then I'm not confronted with a login?
[00:26] <professor_soap> Yelu: not there but when trying to for example add a printer
[00:26] <professor_soap> or removing a printer job
[00:26] <professor_soap> or changing some setting.
[00:26] <professor_soap> try /admin
[00:26] <sudormrf> daftykins, this is for a server that is acting as the primary DHCP and DNS server
[00:26] <fergal32> Beldar: graphics is intel 4400 hd. itś the same usb stick i used before
[00:26] <sudormrf> daftykins, but I have to go.  will pick this up tomorrow :).
[00:27]  * Yelu looking up the configuration file for cups
[00:29] <archimedes_> So is there any update on the bug that kicks you off the internet every 20 minutes? Happening to me on Xubuntu, Ubuntu etc etc
[00:29] <Amy_Lu_Who> i'm back.  :/  now it wants to install a folder called "C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\SimCity 3000"  i know c: does not exist.  or I think it doesn't
[00:29] <Beldar> fergal32, This a dual boot, if so with what exactly, and has this ever been a computer with W8?
[00:30] <Anden> what's the command ubuntu runs behind the scenes when you click on a hard drive that is not yet mounted in the file browser? it's quite nice because it obviously automatically detects all the right switches to mount the device with. i'd love to use it in my scripts too
[00:30] <fergal32> Beldar: yes, it has been a win 8 system but never mind. xubuntu boots fine
[00:31] <fergal32> Beldar: thx for your time
[00:31] <Beldar> fergal32, sure
[00:31] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: in WINE land, the fake C:\ is in like /home/username/wine/c/ or similar
[00:31] <Yelu> professor_soap, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455112/
[00:31] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: it'll think it *does* exist though, so just say yes and it'll probably work
[00:33] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\SimCity 3000 does not exist.  do you want the folder created?
[00:33] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, yes?
[00:33] <nith1210> HM06: Any luck?
[00:33] <Yelu> professor_soap, rename your current cupsd.conf (mv ...) and adapt my cupsd.conf to your LAN. - Then restart cups (/etc/init.d/cups restart)
[00:34] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: yep do it like you would if it were Windows
[00:34] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: where are you from btw? just curious.
[00:34] <Amy_Lu_Who> WA state
[00:34] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins,  and yourself?
[00:35] <bluezone> Bashing-om, I don't know i keep trying to ssh the router and i'm always getting connection refused, any idea?
[00:36] <bluezone> i fowarded a port for it
[00:36] <bluezone> and i'm using the -p option
[00:36] <professor_soap> Yelu: solved it, had a bad passoword
[00:36] <professor_soap> worked on ubuntu with a warning but CUPS denied it as valid.
[00:37] <Yelu> professor_soap, nice one :D - All good now ...
[00:37] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: ah west coast? the island of Guernsey here
[00:38] <Anden> found it, it was gvfs-mount -d /dev/sda4 :) so awesome. doesnt even need root
[00:38] <Bashing-om> bluezone: It has been ages since I set up ssh, I am not the best person to ask. But ya ssh into your target machine, not to the router, the router will forward to port 22 on the machine.
[00:39] <nith1210> bluezone: You are sshing from where to where?
[00:40] <bluezone> nith1210, i suppose i am sshing to myself, i don't really understand. I'm trying to setup a dynamic port fowarding for SOCKS, one of the steps is something like this: ssh -vv -C -p9567  -D1080 bluezone-ubuntu
[00:40] <bluezone> the port is fowarded on my router (9567) both externally and internally
[00:41] <bluezone> but the connection is refused
[00:41] <daftykins> bluezone: did you reconfigure sshd to run on that port and restart it afterward?
[00:41] <nith1210> bluezone: Where is the machine that you're trying to ssh from?
[00:41] <oneof3> hello. i installed ia-32libs by using the command sudo apt-get install ia-32libs. how can i remove it? sudo apt-get remove is-32libs wont work nor did sudo apt-get uninstall ia-32libs
[00:41] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: i have to sleep now, night \o
[00:42] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, thank you once again.  that was more about learning to install software than getting a silly old as heck game on here. :)  now it is time to go shopping...
[00:42] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: buy me something nice!
[00:43] <bluezone> daftykins, i'm not sure what you mean, so probably no :( I'm not an expert in this field,  nith1210 i am sshing from my own machine right next to me and basically that is also bluezone-ubuntu
[00:43] <Amy_Lu_Who> hehe.  i was thingk photoshpop pro, i have the hubby's cretit card...
[00:43] <bluezone> nith1210, i.e. the full command with the user is: bluezone@bluezone-ubuntu:~$ ssh -vv -C -p9567  -D1080 bluezone-ubuntu
[00:44] <bluezone> i was told to do this here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding  Under 'dynamic port fowarding'
[00:44] <nith1210> bluezone: the command isn't wrong, you're having a connection issue.
[00:44] <daftykins> Amy_Lu_Who: i wouldn't recommend buying windows programs and expecting them to run on ubuntu without first looking at the WINE compatibility database - but even then it's best to try out free native programs instead, check out 'The GIMP' for an image editing program
[00:44] <daftykins> anyway ta-ra \o
[00:45] <nith1210> bluezone: but you're trying to ssh into yourself with that command
[00:45] <nith1210> bluezone: I'd bet if you do "ssh -vv -C -p22 -D1080 bluezone-ubuntu" it might work.
[00:45] <bluezone> nith1210, so does that even require any port fowarding at all?
[00:45] <bluezone> hmm ok
[00:45] <nith1210> bluezone: no, the dynamic port forward doesn't make sense through the machine you're already on.
[00:46] <bluezone> nope, ssh: connect to host bluezone-ubuntu port 22: Connection refused
[00:46] <nith1210> bluezone: what port is sshd running on?
[00:46] <Amy_Lu_Who> daftykins, will do.  i am still getting used to the transition.  i have seen the light.  thank you again and good night.
[00:47] <bluezone> nith1210, not installed
[00:48] <bluezone> i guess that's the problem
[00:48] <bluezone> the docs don't even mention anything about this though...
[00:48] <nith1210> bluezone: what's the over-arching thing you're trying to do?
[00:49] <bluezone> nith1210, i'm trying to basically use tsocks for some applications to have them use my amazon aws console instead of my own network (directly)
[00:49] <bluezone> (not the console but my amazon instance :P)
[00:49] <timh> anyone expert at nvidia driver installs?    I have a boot up of constant 'nouveau' lines - what happened?  I don't even know what to google :-(
[00:50] <lazarus_> how do i boot an iso direct frm HDD using grub 2
[00:50] <Yelu> bluezone, each machine you want to ssh in, must have a running sshd (sudo apt-get install openssh-server) listening to incoming connections
[00:50] <timh> I replaced an old nvidia card with a new one... I think I know how to fix the issue but I cannot even get to a terminal shell because 'nouveau' text scrolls down forever
[00:50] <Brumble> Hi guys, If any ones able I need some help figuring something out on ubuntu :)
[00:51] <timh> hi
[00:51] <Brumble> Hi :)
[00:51] <Beldar> lazarus_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot
[00:51] <nith1210> bluezone: are you able to ssh into your aws machine?
[00:51] <timh> lazarus_: you want to use a live media like from a usb flash drive?
[00:51] <bluezone> Yelu, thanks for the explanation, i was just about to type that in question form hehe. Perhaps they should add this in the docs though! https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding
[00:51] <bluezone> nith1210, yes
[00:51] <Brumble> in ubuntu 14 is it normal to have a fat32 partition /boot/efi?
[00:52] <nith1210> bluezone: what port is it on?
[00:52] <bluezone> i believe it is on port 22
[00:52] <Yelu> bluezone, and check your firewall for the ports you're using (22 or what you defined there)
[00:53] <Bashing-om> lazarus_: See: -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot  .
[00:53] <Yelu> bluezone, sudo netstat -tulp
[00:53] <Yelu> bluezone, that will give you the running services
[00:54] <nith1210> bluezone: in the ssh command you want, you want to use ssh -vvC -p<port1> -D<port2> <host>
[00:55] <nith1210> bluezone: <port1> is the port ssh is on. <port2> is the local port. <host> is the machine you want to push packets through
[00:55] <Bashing-om> Brumble: Ya got Windows * and/or GPT partitioning, then yep you will see a /boot/efi partition.
[00:55] <nith1210> bluezone: the local port has to be free and unused, 1080 is a good number for this.
[00:55] <Pencil_> hello
[00:56] <Brumble> Well I don't have windows thats why it concerns me lol
[00:56] <bluezone> nith1210, this is like the local port fowarding section right?
[00:56] <Bashing-om> Brumble: Then I recon ya got a disk that is partitioned in the GPT format.
[00:56] <bluezone> nith1210, is it the same as this? ssh -L 8080:www.ubuntuforums.org:80 <host>
[00:57] <nith1210> bluezone: it's not the same as that, but similar
[00:57] <bluezone> hmm
[00:57] <Brumble> Thanks for the help :)
[00:57] <nith1210> bluezone: put it like this
[00:58] <nith1210> bluezone: -R <stuff> -L <stuff> and -D<port> can all be substituted in, you still need to ssh to the target computer
[00:58] <Bashing-om> Brumble: One of the reasons we are here. Welcome.
[00:59] <Brumble> Google said gpt is for larger drives :)
[00:59] <Brumble> I have a 1tb drive that may be why
[01:00] <Pencil_> My ubuntu has developed a new issue.  I click on the home folder icon and now nothing happens.  Does that sound familiar to anyone.?
[01:00] <Bashing-om> Brumble: Well, yes and no , GPT is the thing now to get around the 4 primary partition limits of the leagacy partitioning.
[01:00] <nith1210> bluezone: -D<port> is basically the local_port in -L<local_port>:<target_host>:<target_port>; With dynamic port forwarding, the second two are constantly changing
[01:00] <bluezone> nith1210, the thing that bothers me about this method (if i understand it correctly that is) is that all application instances will be using the amazon instances (albeit it is easier)
[01:01] <nith1210> bluezone: all the ones you run with tsocks, yes; not the rest.
[01:01] <bluezone> oh
[01:01] <Brumble> So I should not be concerned about ubuntu having a fat32 partition I take it :)
[01:01] <nith1210> bluezone: unless you set it as your global proxying; then the game is a bit different.
[01:01] <nith1210> bluezone: if all you want to do is browse, you can set up the proxy firefox's network settings
[01:02] <Bashing-om> Brumble: yep, just what it takes to make the system work. small fat32 partition to hold the boot code.
[01:02] <bluezone> yeah that's not my goal though, i will try this method you suggested then, do i still need to have an ssh server running on my computer for it to work?
[01:02] <Brumble> Awesome you helped alot, it was bothering me I'm glad it's normal!
[01:03] <nith1210> bluezone: no, you need the ssh server on the machine you want to proxy through
[01:03] <nith1210> bluezone: and, just in case, tsocks doesn't work with java; though you can still use the proxy with java.
[01:04] <Bashing-om> Brumble: Hey great, .. things are changing, we got to adapt to them . UEFI is a great thing but it is different, efi is a good thing -> different.
[01:05] <Brumble> I bet ubuntu will run on more devices thanks to the efi being supported
[01:07] <Gumby> hi all.  does anyone know if there is a current issue with the nvidia-331-updates package?  I tried installing it however it failed and now I can't remove it either.  paste at paste.ubuntu.com/7455221/
[01:08] <Bashing-om> Brumble: I often wonder about all the deals that are made to implement new inovations in our technology. Case in point getting UEFI adapted in 'buntu. now I bet that was a scene.
[01:08] <nith1210> Gumby: postinstall script failures suck.
[01:09] <Gumby> nith1210: indeed, Ive no idea how to get past it
[01:09] <nith1210> Gumby: I only know an ugly way. Let me see if I can find you a clearer one.
[01:10] <Gumby> FYI, this is on a fresh install.  The nvidia driver and another restricted driver are all that I have installed.
[01:11] <nith1210> Gumby: sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
[01:11] <nith1210> Gumby: then try your -f install
[01:11] <Brumble> :)
[01:11] <Gumby> nith1210: same error
[01:12] <Bashing-om> Gumby: I looked, how did you install the Nvidia-331 driver ? direct from Nvidia, or ubuntu's "Additional drivers" utility ?
[01:12] <araujo07171> Olá
[01:12] <nith1210> Gumby: mind pastebin'ing locale -a
[01:12] <araujo07171> helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[01:12] <nith1210> !spanish
[01:13] <Deihmos_> there are two nvidia drivers. one say proprietary, tested the other says proprietary. Wat is the difference
[01:13] <araujo07171> dude i can speak english
[01:13] <Gumby> nith1210: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455245/
[01:14] <Gumby> Deihmos_: one has been tested and one has not?
[01:14] <Deihmos_> tey are both the same
[01:14] <Deihmos_> one has updates at the end
[01:15] <nith1210> Gumby: sudo -s; in the root terminal, export LANG=C.UTF-8; apt-get -f install
[01:15] <Deihmos_> same version number
[01:15] <Gumby> nith1210: same error
[01:16] <bluezone> nith1210, the connection and everything seems to go through, but when i launch tsocks firefox ( as an example) my ip address has not changed
[01:16] <bluezone> i'm going to look into the configuration files for tsocks if i can find them
[01:17] <nith1210> bluezone: firefox uses it's own proxy settings and has a funny way of launching.
[01:17] <nith1210> bluezone: if you want to test with firefox, use the "network settings" in the preferences.
[01:17] <bluezone> ok
[01:17] <Gumby> nith1210: I'm not ever super keen on recommending a reinstall, but since this is a fresh install perhaps it might be easiest.  At least that way I could confirm an issue and report a bug
[01:18] <nith1210> Gumby: please report a bug. I can save you the reinstall though
[01:18] <Gumby> ok
[01:18] <Gumby> whats next?
[01:18] <nith1210> Gumby: does /var/lib/dpkg/info/nvidia-331.postinst exist?
[01:19] <Gumby> nith1210: no it does not
[01:19] <nith1210> Gumby: ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/nvidia-* ?
[01:20] <botch> iiiiiiii
[01:20] <nith1210> Gumby: it's probably called nvidia-331-updates.postinst
[01:21] <Gumby> nith1210: yes.... http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455264/
[01:21] <botch> I don't suppose I could ask a general question that I might possibly know the answer to could I?
[01:22] <nith1210> Gumby: sudo gedit that file, add a line after line 1 which reads "return 0"
[01:22] <Yelu> botch, you just did it :)
[01:22] <nith1210> !recursion
[01:22] <Yelu> !ask|botch
[01:23] <Gumby> nith1210: ugly!  hehe
[01:23] <nith1210> Gumby: yup. now do save and do your -f install
[01:23] <nith1210> Gumby: I recommend purging it immediately
[01:23] <Gumby> nith1210: indeed (already done)
[01:23] <botch> Sorry, I'm older and don't really chat..at all... really.... but I updated my mums computer from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04...
[01:24] <Gumby> nith1210: ah, but it failed
[01:24] <nith1210> Gumby: durring postinst?
[01:24] <botch> NOW...the computer boots to the log in screen, sits for about 3 to 5 seconds, then scrambles.  Does it need to be re-imaged again?
[01:24] <nith1210> Gumby: sorry, postrm?
[01:25] <Gumby> nith1210:  ah, didn't edit that one
[01:25] <nith1210> Gumby: same solution, yup. Still very gross.
[01:25] <Mike11123> wth?  the java channel is invite only?  lmao
[01:26] <nith1210> Mike11123: I just joined #java with no issues.
[01:26] <Gumby> nith1210: same error actually
[01:26] <Beldar> Mike11123, You sure it's not being registered with freenode
[01:26] <nith1210> Gumby: would you please pastebin it?
[01:26] <Mike11123> * Cannot join #java (Channel is invite only).
[01:26] <nith1210> Gumby: and possibly the postinst file as well?
[01:26] <Gumby> the error or the .postrm ?
[01:27] <Gumby> ok
[01:27] <nith1210> Gumby: the error first please
[01:27] <coolxcool> same here  Cannot join #java (Channel is invite only).
[01:28] <Gumby> nith1210: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455285/
[01:29] <nith1210> Gumby: Gumby ok, did you apply the same hack to the postrm script?
[01:30] <Gumby> nith1210: yes I did http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455289/
[01:31] <Mike11123> sigh.... had to register this name

[01:32] <coolxcool> Beldar relax
[01:32] <nith1210> Gumby: Would you please drop it above the set -e line?
[01:33] <Gumby> nith1210: I just did the .prerm script and that worked
[01:33] <nith1210> Gumby: proving how tired I am. Good catch.
[01:33] <Gumby> :)  Thanks for the help.  Get some rest my friend.  hehe
[01:35] <nith1210> Gumby: cheers :)
[01:35] <melt7777> 14.04 cannot seem to give me dircolors in my bash shell. I followed several guides, including http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1297960  can someone help me troubleshoot please?
[01:35] <sudormrf_> daftykins, I am back.  you still around?
[01:36] <nith1210> melt7777: #bash wil be better at that
[01:36] <melt7777> well isn't bash the default shell?
[01:36] <melt7777> should this not work by default OOB?
[01:38] <Bones> Hey guys, I have a question.  I am still kind of new to Ubuntu, I have it installed on a Surface Pro, and I am using th typecover 2.  I know the latest build works with the typecover 1, and I saw there was a bugtracker for the issue with the typecover 2.  the bugtracker said the issue was resolved, and the last modification date was a month or so ago.  so it it possible that issue hasnt been
[01:38] <Bones> added to the newest version of Ubuntu?
[01:38] <nith1210> melt7777: Unless they've changed it, "dash" is the default shell, but either way it should work.
[01:39] <melt7777> Oh, i didn't know that. but I did find the answer, https://gist.github.com/marioBonales/1637696
[01:39] <melt7777> got it on the 5th google attempt. :D
[01:39] <nith1210> melt7777: great :). Welcome to a world of color.
[01:39] <melt7777> it was valid, but i had to use ls --color=auto to display it. :)
[01:40] <melt7777> dude i need the highest possible technology if i'm staring at xterms all day heheh
[01:41] <nith1210> melt7777: I'd recommend rxvt-unicode if you're doing it all day.
[01:41] <nith1210> melt7777: I find it cleaner and easier to look at once configured; though it takes a bunch of time to configure.
[01:41] <Pencil_> I dbl click on the "Home Folder" icon in the side bar and nothing happens.  My web icon and others are working.  Where can I research this ?
[01:42] <Bones> Im going to post a link to a thread, they say that it was "patched" does that mean I have to patch it manually? or is it done automatically?
[01:42] <Bones> http://linux-kernel.2935.n7.nabble.com/PATCH-Add-HID-s-to-hid-microsoft-driver-of-Surface-Type-Touch-Cover-2-to-fix-bug-td790242.html
[01:42] <Yelu> melt7777, you can dins the definitions in your .bashrc file under your home. - To roll back (if messed), just copy a new one from /etc/skel/.bashrc to your home (there are other files as templates there)
[01:42] <melt7777> oooh this is neat, perl extensions
[01:42] <melt7777> i was using /etc/bash.bashrc
[01:42] <Yelu> melt, sorry ^find
[01:43] <melt7777> i am coming from debian land and not having that much trouble
[01:43] <sudormrf_> hey guys, I am looking at setting up a server as the primary DHCP and DNS server on my LAN.  I have something setup already which I can surely copy the configs from, but I would like to understand what is actually happening in the config.
[01:44] <sudormrf_> specifically information about ddns lines I see in the dhcpd.conf.  I would think that ddclient would take care of this type of stuff, or am I incorrect?
[01:44] <melt7777> sadly i instlaled all the same exact stuff and it's over a gig more in ubuntu :D
[01:45] <Bones> I am having an issue with this bug in the latest build of ubuntu, do I have to manually patch it?            https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64811
[01:46] <sudormrf_> <---rtfm now.
[01:46] <Bones> so it has been fixed?
[01:50] <Bones> okay, so I found the patch file that fixes my issue.  how do i apply the file to ubuntu? and does it have to be in diff format?
[01:51] <sudormrf_> Bones, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/man1/patch.1.html
[01:51] <Bones> thanks
[01:51] <sudormrf_> Bones, typically patch -p1 < patchfile
[01:52] <Bones> so i am still new to this, I know i use terminal for that, but where does the file have to be located?
[01:53] <sudormrf_> Bones, no worries about being new, we are all in some stage of learning.  The location of the file shouldn't matter.
[01:53] <Bones> cool, ill attempt and report back
[01:54] <sudormrf_> daftykins, AWAKEN :D
[01:59] <sudormrf_> Hey guys, so I am trying to understand a few lines in this conf file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455367/ specifically lines 1-9 and lines 25-28.  This was pulled from my current setup, I modified certain things in the config to obfuscate the setup a bit, but nothing that would "break" anything.  I could surely copy this config over to my new seutp, but I want to understand what is going on here.
[02:00] <sudormrf_> as far as I understand it, on my current setup ddclient is not actually doing anything and dynamic dns is being handled by something else, but assuming I were to use ddclient on the new setup, would lines 1-7 be required? how about 25-28?
[02:04] <porten> if I wanted to require a list of packages required by my app that someone would instead of manually having to type apt-get for each, is there an easier more accepted way? should i just put the apt-get commands in a bash script or something?
[02:06] <robobenklein> How would I go about adding servers such as Java (Minecraft) as services? So as to start them and stop them accordingly with the uniform 'sudo service' commands. Ubuntu Server 14.04.
[02:06] <robobenklein> porten: Is your app also a package?
[02:06] <porten> no it's not, it's a binary
[02:07] <nith1210> porten: why not just make a package?
[02:08] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, http://kosiara87.blogspot.com/2013/10/ubuntu-1204-create-simple-daemon.html
[02:08] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, you need to pop the item into init.d
[02:09] <porten> robobenklein: maybe that's what I was looking for, i was looking for stuff like "install package bundle" or something like that where i specify package and version and apt-get or dpkg would handle the rest
[02:09] <porten> robobenklein: like my binary depends on multiple packages
[02:10] <bluezone> nith1210, so  fowarding to the SOCKS server seems to work with the browser settings but doesnt work if i just launch tsocks <any application here> perhaps i need to configure tsocks? Do you know where i can find the config file?
[02:10] <robobenklein> I would imagine simply adding a simple check for those dependencies, and if they don't have them present them with a dialouge allowing them to execute the apt-get install command. However I see adding dependencies to a package much simpler
[02:11] <nith1210> bluezone: man tsocks.conf
[02:11] <robobenklein> sudormrf_: Thanks
[02:11] <zenNamaste> good morning all. The fonts is very tiny after a reboot in my laptop. I have really no idea about why. The font is tiny in both unity and my app(terminal, emacs, firefox...) here is the screenshot: http://imagebin.org/310544
[02:11] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, https://gist.github.com/naholyr/4275302 there is an example
[02:11] <nith1210> porten: google dh-make tutorials, it's what you really want.
[02:11] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, good luck :)
[02:13] <porten> nith1210: ok, great thanks
[02:13] <sudormrf_> so is anyone around to help me out with my dhcpd question? :D
[02:14] <robobenklein> I'm game for helping
[02:14] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, hey guys, I am looking at setting up a server as the primary DHCP and DNS server on my LAN.  I have something setup already which I can surely copy the configs from, but I would like to understand what is actually happening in the config.
[02:15] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, specifically information about ddns lines I see in the dhcpd.conf.  I would think that ddclient would take care of this type of stuff, or am I incorrect?
[02:15] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, I am reading the man page for dhcpd.conf right now, I have answered my question about line 3, but the other lines are something I am still not sure about.  Still reading the man page, though.
[02:17] <robobenklein> Heh, man pages, I should probably read those too, however I do so ever rarely. I have little experience with what your speaking about, but my gut tells me that the ddns lines in there tell the dchpd to interact with ddclient
[02:19] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, that is what I am thinking too.  I just need to figure out why it is there and what not.  Still reading :D.  RTFM, should be the first step, but sadly it is often easier for us to just ask someone (I am certainly guilty of this myself).
[02:20] <robobenklein> sudormrf: Well assuming you're not in a production env, I'd take out those lines and see what happens, although you may break things it's a great way to learn
[02:21] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, what I am doing now is building out the setup in a VM, then I will just move those conf files over to a production machine once I have verified everything is up and running.  I agree that is a good way to learn, but it can also generate more questions, specifically the *why* did removing x cause it to break? lel
[02:22] <robobenklein> Lol, send me a paste link and then maybe I'll have a better understanding
[02:22] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, of what? the config?
[02:22] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, it was above, but http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455367/
[02:24] <sudormrf_> just got to the section in the man page about the ddns entry
[02:25] <robobenklein> sudormrf_ Oh, those lines are in there most likely to provide domain name services, like to assign 'mycomputer.local' automagically, and to set the server name so when someone enters 'example.com' that server will take it before it gets to the internet
[02:26] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, good point. :).
[02:28] <html> hey
[02:28] <robobenklein> Hi
[02:29] <html> some reason vlc has not sound;even though it worked out of the box util a bit ago
[02:29] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, how about lines 25-28
[02:29] <Gerowen> Random question.  I'm upgrading my mom's Ubuntu 13.10 laptop to 14.04, but her external doesn't have enough space to hold all her files and I don't feel like waiting 10 years for it to copy to mine.  If I boot from my 14.04 USB stick, does it give me an option to "Upgrade" an existing installtion from the USB stick so I don't have to wait for it to download everything?
[02:30] <sudormrf_> Gerowen, it should
[02:30] <robobenklein> sudormrf_ Clearly security encryption settings, likely for setting private and public keys
[02:30] <Gerowen> sudormrf_: That's what I thought, but I couldn't remember.
[02:30] <sudormrf_> robobenklein, cool.  poodoo.    I tried backing up the stuff stored locally but the drive got full.
[02:32] <Gerowen> So I'm just going to do an in place upgrade.  Worst case scenario the upgrade fails and I just boot my live USB stick and use that to move all her local files to my SSH server before nuking it and starting over.
[02:33] <Beldar> Gerowen, It is easy to find copies, I would not do any if this without a backup or image/clone, it's common sense, and your best insurance.
[02:33] <Beldar> anyway that is me is all ;)
[02:33] <Gerowen> Beldar: Yeah, Clonezilla would probably run faster than a copy/paste anyway.
[02:34] <robobenklein> Gerowen: 13.* has had dist-upgrade problems for me, just a precaution from my past experience with upgrading on intel hardware. I'd recommend upgrading from the USB 14.04 not using the built-in upgrade
[02:34] <Beldar> Gerowen, yeah clonezilla is a good option.
[02:34] <Gerowen> roboenklein: I'm just doing that to pull all the available updates for 13.10 prior to upgrading, not to do the upgrade.
[02:35] <robobenklein> Gerowen: Ah, ok
[02:36] <html> some reason vlc has not sound;even though it worked out of the box util a bit ago
[02:37] <html> how do i find out hte problem and fix it?
[02:37] <Beldar> html, Not much to work with.
[02:37] <robobenklein> html: I'd check simple mistakes like wrong sound device and rebooting everything
[02:38] <matnel> mm. I'm having an issue when trying to run ubuntu up from a normal boot model, the display just blinks "Input signal out of range; Change settings to..." however when I start the system trough recovery mode, everything works ok
[02:38] <html> robobenklein,  youtube works but local stuff is a ,no go
[02:38] <matnel> I tried the documentation in http://askubuntu.com/questions/189566/input-signal-out-of-range-change-settings-to-1600-x-900 there without success
[02:38] <robobenklein> html: Which browser?
[02:38] <html> robobenklein,  chrome
[02:39] <robobenklein> html: Go to your sound settings and be sure that you're using the correct device, as Chrome is a bit too smart for that
[02:39] <robobenklein> Then restart VLC
[02:40] <html> i do
[02:40] <Beldar> matnel, You were able to change the /etc/default/grub, if so how did you do it?
[02:41] <matnel> Beldar: trough the recovery mode
[02:41] <matnel> and yeah, I was able to do so :)
[02:41] <robobenklein> html: And you're sure that your local stuff has audio for it? VLC isn't muted individually?
[02:41] <matnel> Beldar: or, more exactly, saying that go to recovery mode and then in there resume normal boot
[02:42] <html> robobenklein,  how do i find if vlc is muted?
[02:42] <Beldar> matnel, I figured that, from the desktop than.
[02:42] <robobenklein> html: In your sound setting there should be a applications tab
[02:43] <matnel> Beldar: server installation, so just sudo nanoed it
[02:44] <Beldar> matnel, Ah, cool, not sure where to go from here.
[02:44] <OJmask> oh man i'm wrecked
[02:45] <matnel> thanks anyway Beldar :)
[02:46] <robobenklein> I've got to head, see you later. Good luck html with your audio problems (be lucky it isn't xorg related)
[02:47] <html> robo thanks
[02:49] <Guest79662> hola
[02:52] <ramos> I am trying to upgrade my dist to 14.04. Can someone take a look at the following link to help me out? : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455518/
[02:53] <xangua> ramos: if you are using lucid you want to upgrade to 12.04
[02:54] <ramos> xangua, I'm already running lucid
[02:54] <Bashing-om> ramos: +1 ^^
[02:54] <xangua> ramos: then you want to upgrade to precise 12.04¿
[02:55] <matnel> ok... running the startx gave me an error: http://humanisti.fixme.fi/~matnel/temp/Xorg.0.log
[02:55] <rww> ramos: I'm about to go away from keyboard, but in short: edit /etc/apt/sources.list (and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ if medibuntu isn't in sources.list), and remove medibuntu and cdrom lines, then do apt-get update, then try upgrading again
[02:55] <Bashing-om> ramos: Release 10.04 is End-Of-Life, and is no longer supported on the desktop.
[02:55] <matnel> so, might this be related to the display settings issue?
[02:56] <rww> ramos: (the cdrom lines aren't useful, and medibuntu got shut down a while ago so those lines won't work)
[02:56] <ltxda> hi all
[02:57] <ramos> rww, ok gonna give this a shot, are you coming back?
[02:57] <rww> ramos: yep, probably about 30 minutes
[02:57] <ramos> rww, ok
[02:57] <rww> other people should be able to help with this in the meantime though, if they can get past the "hurr 10.04 is unsupported"
[02:58] <ramos> rww, I'm not running 10.04
[02:58] <ramos> I am definitely running 12.04
[02:58] <ramos> 3.2.0-61 to be exact
[02:58] <rww> ramos: okays. same advice either way :)
[02:59] <rww> just means those cdrom lines outstayed their welcome even more
[02:59] <Beldar> ramos, can you pastebin  grep -vr "^#" /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/}
[02:59]  * rww afk
[02:59] <ramos> Beldar, yes will do that right now
[03:00] <Beldar> ramos, Cool, it shows both sources.list just for refrence
[03:01] <ramos> Beldar, here's the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455536/
[03:03] <ramos> Beldar, looking at the output I'm confused as all hell now! It appears as though I'm running lucid but I swear to you when I boot up, it says 12.04
[03:04] <Beldar> ramos, You have a mixture of lucid and precise in both the sources.list and sources.list.d The question is how, if you can did this happen?
[03:06] <ramos> Beldar, I have no idea. I've always followed the protocol as far as upgrades
[03:07] <ramos> Beldar, I've never had this problem with a distro and I've been running ubuntu since version 5
[03:07] <Beldar> ramos, Did you run a 10.04 to 12.04 upgrade, if so when, and how?
[03:08] <heman_> is this a wrong channel to ask why my (disable the touchpad while typing) isnt working on ubuntu 12.04 (gnome) but work on debian? (kali)
[03:08] <ramos> Yeah I went from 10 to 12 a few years ago by simply doing the upgrade update
[03:10] <Beldar> ramos, You can open the sources.list and see if the lucid links are commented out with a #. This may be the case in both lists, if you are getting no update upgrade apt errors.
[03:11] <ramos> Beldar, how do I do that?
[03:12] <Beldar> ramos, We do see in your original posts calls to lucid however. To be honest this is beyond me in checking every possible problem you may have and feel like I have helped.
[03:14] <Beldar> ramos, Were you my friend and brought this to me, I would pull out what you need, make a installed list and save the repos and keys relevant and do a fresh install and reload all that.
[03:15] <Beldar> but I don't ever upgrade so I'm biased
[03:17] <xangua> ramos: you should be able to remove the lucid repository lines from Software Center-Edit menu-Sources
[03:17] <ramos> Beldar, sounds like you're saying I'm screwed! LOL
[03:18] <Beldar> ramos, Not really, just my limitations is all, and methods, there are people here who can help much more. ;)
[03:18] <squee_> what is a good room for help?
[03:18] <ramos> xangua, ok how do I do that?
[03:19] <squee_> this one I'd guess...
[03:19] <Vivek_> Any pointers to how I could get grub installed on a uefi computer? I have a tried a few steps and not much success
[03:19] <Obi1> my kernel is keep crashing
[03:19] <Beldar> Vivek_, you have a linux install?
[03:20]  * rww reappears
[03:20] <Vivek_> Beldar, I have a kubuntu installed but I can't have the bootloader installed
[03:21] <Vivek_> I have windows 7 and hoping to have a dualboot in my office Dell laptop
[03:21] <Obi1> Best way to upgrade to 14.04  my update manager do not see it
[03:21] <Beldar> Vivek_, This a former W8, now running W7 with uefi and gpt, dual booted with kubuntu?
[03:22] <Beldar> Obi1, What release are you using?
[03:22] <Obi1> 12.04
[03:22] <Vivek_> nope.. it is a wi7 with uefi and gpt have kubuntu installed in a partition. not yet able to dual boot
[03:22] <Vivek_> Beldar, ^
[03:22] <Obi1> but i have never seen that many time message  you need to load kernel first
[03:23] <Obi1> i run Linux going on 9 years
[03:23] <squee_> So anyway. I don't know exactly what happened, but I was using Ubuntu 14.04 w/XFCE fine at night and the next day it only displayed a purple square in the corner when I booted up and I couldn't switch to a text terminal or launch in safe graphics mode... so I installed Ubuntu 12.10 on a new partition. The most basic thing I'd like to know is how I can run software from the old partition (because I would like to export my LastPass vault, firefo
[03:23] <squee_> x bookmarks, etc.). If anyone would like to take a crack at what may have updated and caused the issue to begin with, that would be extra excellent.
[03:23] <Beldar> Vivek_, Have you tried the bootrepair app, just running the bootinfo summary would be helpful.
[03:23] <ramos> xangua, you still in the room?
[03:24] <Vivek_> nope.. can boot from my xubuntu usb and try the appt
[03:24] <Vivek_> let me boot and come back
[03:24] <Vivek_> Beldar, ^
[03:26] <Obi1> any idea why Kernel crashing any1
[03:26] <xangua> ramos: I really can't say it simple than that, open software center-edit menu-sources and disable lucid repositories
[03:26] <meccooll> When I run fgl_glxgears on the monitor sitting off of GPU1 i get about 1500FPS but if i drag fgl_glxgears to the second monitor sitting of GPU2 FPS drop to about 300
[03:26] <ramos> xangua, ok I'll give that a shot
[03:27] <bluezone> success!
[03:27] <squee_> anyone?
[03:28] <Beldar> squee_, 12.10 is eol, you want to move stuff to it?
[03:28] <kostkon> Beldar, not yet, on the 16th
[03:29] <squee_> well... only as a last resort. I had a disc of it ...which was the latest version I had I disc.
[03:29] <Beldar> kostkon, Ah, you're right my bad, just relaized that and was typing.
[03:29] <kostkon> Beldar, np
[03:30] <squee_> oh. hm some things run from it I guess... I just can't figure out how to get firefox from that partition open
[03:30] <meccooll> nobody?
[03:32] <Beldar> squee_, you can just copy paste .mozilla in 12.10 after removing the file there and your set, the key lock I don't know.
[03:32] <vivek_> Beldar,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455606/
[03:32] <squee_> right
[03:33] <squee_> thank you
[03:33] <vivek_> Beldar, It looks alright I guesss I am going to reboot to see
[03:33] <Beldar> vivek_, No gpt, that is msdos, run the basic repair on the app if you have not.
[03:34] <vivek_> Beldar, I did the basic recommended settings
[03:34] <Beldar> vivek_, Have you rebooted yet?
[03:34] <vivek_> Beldar, I am going to reboot now
[03:35] <squee_> oh - apparently that did the trick with LastPass as well!
[03:35] <squee_> Beldar, any idea what else I should move off the top of your head before I trash that partition?
[03:35] <squee_> .profile or anything?
[03:36] <Beldar> squee_, Not without reading your mind and end goals. ;)
[03:36] <squee_> darn
[03:36] <squee_> :D
[03:38] <roothorick> my laptop has the two mics for beam forming but I can't find any way to turn on the software/DSP end of things. Is that even supported?
[03:38] <Deihmos> i wonder why no skype support in empathy
[03:39] <viyyer> Beldar: I have a grub entry for kubuntu but not for w7  now
[03:39] <Beldar> viyyer, In kubuntu run sudo update-grub
[03:39] <ipsk> #teste
[03:39] <todaystomorrow> I'm having trouble installing a .run
[03:40] <todaystomorrow> I get the error "cannot execute binary file"
[03:41] <viyyer> Beldar: thanks it works
[03:41] <hephaestus_rg_> i'm following the guide here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx
[03:41] <timh> todaystomorrow: what file?
[03:42] <hephaestus_rg_> but the usb stick is now unreadable according to osx
[03:42] <todaystomorrow> xampp .run for ubuntu
[03:42] <Beldar> viyyer, Cool, enjoy.
[03:42] <viyyer> Beldar: I owe you one . thanks
[03:42] <todaystomorrow> xampp is very popular so I doubt it is corrupted
[03:42] <hephaestus_rg_> "the disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"
[03:42] <hephaestus_rg_> it was fat16 originally, maybe the write didn't work?
[03:44] <timh> todaystomorrow: are you running 32-bit or 64-bit U?
[03:45] <Deihmos> can empathy use skype?
[03:46] <ramos> anyone here know how to add the updated respositories so I can upgrade?
[03:47] <timh> ramos: from what to what?
[03:47] <Deihmos> ubuntu looks so much better than what it use to look lie. finally got some good graphics design
[03:47] <timh> my ubuntu is hosed
[03:47] <timh> I'll try to fix it soon
[03:48] <timh> nvidia... pain to install :)
[03:48] <Deihmos> it was one click for me
[03:48] <ramos> timh,  let me show you the problem I'm having and you'll probably understand what's going on : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7455536/ check out this link. I'm trying to upgrade my distro which is a mixture of 10.04 and 12.04.
[03:48] <ramos> timh, this thing is driving me crazy!
[03:50] <timh> trying to upgrade to 12.04?
[03:50] <ramos> timh, no I'm trying to upgrade to 14.04
[03:50] <timh> oh
[03:50] <timh> can you just re-install?
[03:51] <timh> it'd be easier
[03:51] <Guest57137> can i make a shell script became a binary?
[03:52] <timh> just some ideas:   http://askubuntu.com/questions/453734/is-it-posible-to-upgrade-to-ubuntu-14-04-from-ubuntu-10-04

[03:55] <BWestOz> I'm having difficulty installing 14.04 Desktop, getting stuck at the partition screen. It isn't offering me a default table. I'm not sure if it's seeing the drive. I've tried changing the drive settings (IDE, AHCI, RAID) in the BIOS. Doesn't seem to see it. Any suggestions appreciated)
[03:56] <Beldar> BWestOz, Can you open a terminal and run sudo parted -l and pastebin it
[03:57] <BWestOz> Beldar; thanks for responding. I'll try....
[04:00] <BWestOz> How can I open a terminal that early druing install?
[04:00] <Beldar> BWestOz, If you are not seeing anything in the install (partition HD space) close it
[04:01] <Beldar> ctrl-alt-t BWestOz
[04:02] <BWestOz> Beldar, thanks, I'll try that
[04:02] <BWestOz> Beldar, is it necessary to take everything off the drive before installing? I wouldn't have thought so
[04:03] <Beldar> BWestOz, Not generally, THis seems to be a possible gpt partition table the command will tell us what is actually there.
[04:11] <BWestOz> Beldar: http://hastebin.com/kivanuriza.vhdl
[04:11] <BWestOz> says read only
[04:12] <BWestOz> Any ideas?
[04:12] <Beldar> BWestOz, My guess is a broken partition table. open gpafrted and see if it shows the HD as unallocated.
[04:12] <Beldar> gparted*
[04:14] <BWestOz> Beldar; the last thing on it was a trial of windows 8
[04:14] <BWestOz> what's gpafrted?
[04:14] <Beldar> BWestOz, gparted
[04:15] <BWestOz> argh!
[04:15] <Beldar> BWestOz, What is on theere now in that ntfs partition?
[04:15] <BWestOz> win 8 trial
[04:16] <Beldar> BWestOz, not usable now right. what is your attachment to whats in that partition?
[04:17] <BWestOz> gparted shows most of the drive NTFS partition with 10 meg or so unallocated
[04:17] <BWestOz> I'm happy to wipe the lot. Should I just wipe it with gparted and reboot?
[04:18] <Beldar> BWestOz, Yeah wipe it with gparted, and you should be able to install, however a install to the HD from the gui where you chose something else should wipe it and install.
[04:21] <BWestOz> I'll try it
[04:22] <Beldar> BWestOz, Hope that made sense, lol.
[04:22] <BWestOz> I wiped it with gparted, now I'm rebooting
[04:23] <Phlow> umm, why is gksu not installed by default?
[04:23] <Beldar> BWestOz, Cool, just choose the whole HD install, unless you want to build partitions. Worst case here the HD may need a new partition table, which can be done in gparted.
[04:24] <Beldar> Phlow, who knows.
[04:28] <maek> Im new to ubuntu and im running the 14.04 daily cloud build in vagrant. Im having a hard time accessing port 80 with a docker container bound  to it. it works at higher ports. any idea what might be preventing that?
[04:29] <daninoz> I have a problem with a site and firefox, when I enter the site, the session is closed and i go to the login screen, is there any kind of log I can take a look at?
[04:30] <maek> daninoz: firefox -g ?
[04:32] <Bashing-om> maek: No can do ( less running the VM in root) see: ->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2163976 ...
[04:33] <maek> Bashing-om: Im starting the docker container as root
[04:33] <maek> and the docker daemon is running as root.
[04:34] <Bashing-om> maek: Still, all ports less 1024 are reserved.
[04:34] <BWestOz> Beldar; still isn't seeing it. I'll try creating a partition table with gparted
[04:34] <maek> Bashing-om: not to be dense or thick, but I have another 14.04 box that I didnt build and this works prefectly.
[04:34] <maek> re, port 80
[04:34] <maek> from docker.
[04:34] <IcemanV9> maek: firewall?
[04:34] <maek> IcemanV9: ufw is disabled
[04:35] <maek> looking at iptbales now
[04:35] <BWestOz> what's the best type of partition table to use? MSDos?
[04:35] <maek> 81 and 82 right?
[04:36] <maek> 83 sorry
[04:36] <maek> one is swap
[04:36] <maek> one is 'linux'
[04:36] <maek> BWestOz: dont pay any attention to me. you are asking about tables. and im talking about partition types. sorry.
[04:37] <BWestOz> maek; :) no worries
[04:37] <BWestOz> I havn't done IPtables for a while
[04:38] <maek> BWestOz: what are your options?
[04:38] <BWestOz> oh, lots. I googled it and chose MSDOS
[04:38] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: Fot the standard install of ubuntu, "msdos" partition type is correct.
[04:38] <Bashing-om> fot/for
[04:39] <BWestOz> I hope it sees the drive this time
[04:39] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: Will see, else try and pre partition the disk for install .
[04:40] <levu_> hello all
[04:40] <levu_> how to reboot ubuntu operating system ?
[04:40] <mellonfinger> hello all
[04:40] <maek> mellonfinger: haha, great nic
[04:41] <mellonfinger> :)#
[04:41] <Locke2002> levu_: sudo shutdown -r now
[04:41] <mellonfinger> kill 1 ?
[04:41] <Bashing-om> levu_: from terminal, terminal command -> sudo shutdown -r now <- will reboot.
[04:43] <mellonfinger> if all else fails, pull plug....
[04:43] <Locke2002> mellonfinger: Or a hammer
[04:44] <BWestOz> Beldar; It's still not seeing the drive
[04:44] <Beldar> BWestOz, With a new table? What was the last HD tyoe setting you ended with in the bios?
[04:44] <Beldar> type*
[04:44] <mellonfinger> do you need to mount drives or is that done automatically
[04:45] <Beldar> BWestOz, Is this a UEFI computer?
[04:45] <BWestOz> Beldar; I wiped the drive and added a new partition table with gparted. I used MDDOS
[04:46] <BWestOz> what's UEFI?
[04:47] <Beldar> BWestOz, what OS was on the computer when brand new if you know?
[04:47] <BWestOz> I don't think so
[04:48] <BWestOz> Beldar; Windows, it's had XP on and a trial of Win 8. I cannot remember if I've put linux on it before, I think I might have
[04:49] <BWestOz> I'll have a look with parted again.
[04:49] <BWestOz> It's got an Intel G945 somethingorather chipset
[04:50] <BWestOz> just a vanilla pc
[04:52] <Beldar> BWestOz, I have no real exact answer, we knocked out some basic variables, why the HD is seen from the cli and gparted, but not the installer I have no idea.
[04:53] <BWestOz> Beldar; yes. It seems weird
[04:53] <BWestOz> I'm still tinkering
[04:54] <Beldar> BWestOz, There is a app on the live called disks, top right corner has a smartdisc check, take a look at it.
[04:57] <BWestOz> I'm going to manually creat partitions in gparted.  Sorry if this is a stupid question but I wanted to install ubuntu but I learned it was full of shitware, what's the best ubuntu variation for a computer with lots of spare ram/for development?
[05:01] <akurilin> So are people here pretty happy with system74 laptops?
[05:02] <N4n0> hey
[05:02] <akurilin> I remember you guys recommending those at some point
[05:02] <akurilin> as some of the better ubuntu-friendly laptops out there
[05:03] <BWestOz> what's the partitioning tool that auto-starts as part of the install called?
[05:06] <Mikerhinos> I have a Asus Sabertooth 55i motherboard, looks like I have 3 SATA controllers (http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/SABERTOOTH_55i/specifications/), will I have more performances if I setup a LVM stripe with the 2 disks on different controllers ?
[05:06] <BWestOz> Well that's really strange. I can see the partition info in gparted but it's not showing when I try to install
[05:06] <BWestOz> I'm at a loss as to what to do
[05:07] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: In answer to what is -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ubiquity ..
[05:10] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: You are also unable to partition the disk ? Ya want to try the tool 'dd' and see about zeroing out the disk ?
[05:14] <EyePulp> howdy;  I'm trying to lock down the authorized_keys file so that one key can only connect/forward port 5432 on a machine - so I'm using permitopen="<IP_ADDRESS>:5432" ssh-rsa xxxxyyy....zzzz   but that doesn't restrict the user when I try to ssh in. I think I'm missing something. =)
[05:16] <BWestOz> Bashing-om, what do you mean by zeroing out the disk?
[05:17] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: When all else fails, one can write zeros to all of the hard drive, and then try and partition it.
[05:20] <BWestOz> I just started a debian install and it got past partitioning OK
[05:20] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: terminal coomand -> man dd <- to get the guist of dd ( has directions to get a status of what dd is doing) .
[05:21] <BWestOz> I know what dd is; I'm not sure how it can help me to get ubuntu install to recognized the disk
[05:21] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: Humm, debian installs, maybe then ya got a bad burn on the ubuntu disk ?
[05:22] <timh> ubuntu is FDSF me again
[05:22] <BWestOz> Bashing-om, I don't think so
[05:23] <BWestOz> I might try 13
[05:23] <timh> nouveau pmc unknown intr -> ??!?!?
[05:23] <BWestOz> I'm going to have to postpone. I've just given another hour of my life to linux :/
[05:23] <Bashing-om> BWestOz: Beats me too then.
[05:24] <timh> I have to use a different OS to get here
[05:24] <timh> BWestOz:  losing my patience with ubuntu
[05:24] <timh> I don't see the point
[05:24] <timh> no idea how to fix
[05:25] <OJmask> the point ---->  <..... see it?
[05:25] <hihitleer> timh: pm
[05:25] <AgentDrTran> The point is FREEDOM
[05:25] <BWestOz> In the past I've found ubuntu very good, but it's annoying when you can't install it
[05:25] <timh> plus there's tons of trolls here
[05:25] <OJmask> trolls or bored people
[05:26] <BWestOz> what's the command line command to show partitions?
[05:26] <timh> I googled this problem but there's no good writeups
[05:26] <Beldar> BWestOz, sudo fdisk -l is one
[05:26] <hihitleer> timh: huh
[05:27] <BWestOz> fdisk, thanks
[05:28] <BWestOz> well fdisk can see it, gparted can see it. The installer can't
[05:28] <BWestOz> Beldar; thanks for your help
[05:29] <BWestOz> I'll have to get back to it
[05:29] <timh> these cards are just not able to work in ubuntu....  so pathetic
[05:30] <timh> I even got it to work in debian
[05:31] <timh> how do you set?:   "nomodeset" as kernel linux parameter in your bootloader.
[05:33] <jefferson> anyone here use oz unity?
[05:33] <Bashing-om> timh: nomodeset see -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 <- .
[05:34] <timh> Bashing-om: is there a cole's notes ver?
[05:36] <Bashing-om> timh: at grub boot menu, 'e' key for edit mode, aroown down and across to "quiet splash" insert nomodeset; key combo ctl+x to continue the boot process.
[05:36] <Bashing-om> arrow
[05:41] <timh> I see now, thanks
[05:42] <timh> why is 'nouveau modeset=0 in a blacklist file?  is it the same thing?  right?
[05:42] <timh> I'll try it.......
[05:43] <Bashing-om> timh: I ask ya again, did you install a proprietary driver from PPA or Nvidia direct ? .. how one removes the driver varies as to how it was installed.
[05:43] <Bashing-om> timh: Nvidia does that when the driver is installed.
[05:44] <timh> ah!
[05:44] <timh> makes sense
[05:44] <timh> okay, thanks big time for your help
[05:44] <timh> even if it doesn't work (but, sounds like it will)
[05:44] <timh> I just want to try it and see if I can get a desktop...so I can try a driver install
[05:45] <Bashing-om> timh: depending, Removing Nvidia driver can be challenging - procedures do vary as to how it was installed.
[05:46] <timh> so true ;)
[05:46] <Bashing-om> timh: First step is to remove the Nvidia driver that is installed. and then UN-blacklist nouveau driver !
[05:46] <timh> I switched an old card to a recent one and so had to decide on procedures and messed up :)
[05:46] <timh> yes, right!
[05:46] <timh> I have done so.... I believe
[05:47] <timh> I ran commands like:  dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia
[05:47] <timh> to see what is there etc
[05:47] <timh> and purged/removed all of nvidia
[05:48] <timh> since that should help remove any conflicts?
[05:48] <timh> anyway, I will try now thanks

[06:31] <salsero> sl33k: sudo apt-get -f install
[06:34] <blueingress> Hi, How can I upgrade my 13.04 to current 14.04 ?
[06:38] <Beldar> blueingress, going through 13.10 also a eol to 14.04 is the route.
[06:38] <salsero> blueingress: ingress the packages from 13.10 first and update to that version
[06:39] <Beldar> blueingress, My mistake 13.10 is supported till july.
[06:41] <sl33k_> guys my dpkg has screwed up. jdk is broken in the repository. How do I fix it?
[06:43] <dw1> sl33k_: what do you mean broken
[06:44] <dw1> sl33k_: how bout sudo apt-get install --reinstall openjdk-7-jre
[06:44] <dw1> sl33k_: (14.04)
[06:44] <blueingress> Beldar salsero, I update package via apt-get updaste everyday, Is there any difference with updated 13.04 from 14.04?
[06:44] <dw1> blueingress: apt-get update doesnt update packages, just package lists
[06:44] <dw1> blueingress: you need apt-get upgrade or better apt-get dist-upgrade (see man apt-get)
[06:45] <dw1> blueingress: 13.04 is no longer supported, so you should move on to 13.10 and 14.04
[06:45] <sl33k_> dw1: gives: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
[06:45] <sl33k_> do I fire that command?
[06:45] <dw1> sl33k_: yep
[06:45] <kumar[at]pt> anyone used fail2ban with asterisk ?
[06:46] <dw1> fail2ban without asterisk, yes
[06:46] <sl33k_> dw1:  Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[06:46] <Ben64> sl33k_: it'd also help if you pastebinned the full output of "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[06:47] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: well, need to use with asterisk and it gives hell lot of trouble…works OK with ssh
[06:47] <somsip> kumar[at]pt: you're wanting to setup a new filter to check the asterisk log?
[06:47] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: i guess you just need to get the regexes right
[06:48] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: in new version i guess we do not need regexes !
[06:48] <blueingress> dw1, Is there any shortcut to upgrade to 14.04 from 13.04?
[06:48] <kumar[at]pt> though not sure
[06:49] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: i see some default ones in /etc/fail2ban/filter.d so it should 'just work' if you point it at the log correctly
[06:49] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: and enable it
[06:49] <sl33k_> dw1, Ben64: http://pastebin.com/ZkQxwHBm
[06:49] <somsip> kumar[at]pt: as F2B works significantly with regexes, it's unlikely to change that in the most recent version
[06:49] <dw1> blueingress: just run what's offered..
[06:49] <Ben64> sl33k_: that is not what i asked for...  "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[06:49] <dw1> blueingress: set software-updater to 'notify of new versions' or whatever
[06:50] <blueingress> dw1, thanks let me check the software-updater.
[06:50] <waykool99> in both ubuntu studio 12.04 and 14.04 LTS, when installing from ubuntu software center, why does a "deb conf" window keep flashing every few seconds and lasts about 1/4 second?
[06:51] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: already enabled
[06:51] <sl33k_> Ben64: do you mean the full output?
[06:51] <Ben64> sl33k_: yes...
[06:52] <kumar[at]pt> blueingress: trying to run just that comes bundeled..but no success…ssh works ok
[06:52] <salsero> sl33k_: disable your ppas and then do apt-get update then dist-upgrade
[06:52] <sl33k_> Ben64: http://pastebin.com/BzqcUU0i
[06:52] <salsero> then you will set a slick system
[06:53] <kumar[at]pt> somsip: i mean the changes required to be done at the admin level
[06:53] <sl33k_> salsero: How to disable ppa?
[06:53] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: you can run fail2ban-regex /path/to/asterisk.log /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/asterisk.conf to see matches
[06:53] <somsip> kumar[at]pt: you're not being clear about what you are trying to achieve
[06:53] <salsero> you can also remove that package sudo apt-get remove default-jre-headless
[06:54] <blueingress> kumar[at]pt dw1 I changed ubuntu software center notification to "any new ubuntu version", is it right?
[06:54] <salsero> i for myself dont have it installed
[06:54] <salsero> yes blueingress
[06:54] <dw1> blueingress: yeah, but once you get up to 14.04 you could change it to "any new LTS version"
[06:55] <dw1> blueingress: to avoid development releases
[06:55] <sl33k_> salsero: same error. Saying unmet depedencies on remove command.
[06:56] <salsero> or any new version to keep with the latests versions of releases
[06:56] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: yes i can run that
[06:57] <sl33k_> salsero: I am clueless. what caould I do?
[06:57] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: so there should be some matches, and possibly matches on a line starting with Failregex: which should mean its working
[06:57] <blueingress> dw1, So I have to wait , Or need to reboot to get the push update?
[06:57] <salsero> sl33k_: what does this do?  sudo apt-get -f install

[06:59] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: yes f2b seems to be working ok…as i have tested it with ssh..failed attempts…all ok..seems some conf related issue with asterisk
[07:00] <sl33k_> Ben64: how do i get rid of this jre error ?
[07:00] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: paste fail2ban.conf and fail2ban-regex with the asterisk log/filter @ http://pastee.org
[07:01] <salsero> sl33k_:  sudo apt-get remove default-jre-headless openjdk-6-jre-headless

[07:05] <alnassafi> hi all
[07:05] <waykool99> howdy alnassafi
[07:06] <alnassafi> llberi is part of which library or app?
[07:06] <alnassafi> trying to compile sendmail and linking with -llberi .. and ld says -llberi is not there
[07:06] <alnassafi> waykool99: howdy waykool99
[07:08] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: did you recently change your server time zone?  that messed up my fail2ban until i did service rsyslog restart
[07:08] <sl33k_> guys how do I recover from this broken package http://pastebin.com/u7Jacwcz ?
[07:08] <sl33k_> could I run apt-get clean again?
[07:09] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: in my case it was ssh not triggering
[07:09] <assistente> hi to all! someone can help me debug cups printing on a konica-minolta c350 to enable job accounting?
[07:09] <sl33k_> YEsterday I was made to run this but somehow my laptop shutted dowm -> Looks like it was in the install process -> do -> sudo apt-get autoclean , sudo apt-get autoremove , sudo apt-get clean , sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade , sudo apt-get dist-upgrade , sudo apt-get -f install , sudo dpkg --configure -a // see what happens.
[07:09] <sl33k_> y resident Bashing-om
[07:09] <dw1> sl33k_: those should all be ok to run
[07:09] <sl33k_> *by
[07:10] <dw1> sl33k_: try it again :)
[07:10] <sl33k_> dw1: ok
[07:11] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: basicaly the server time zone no longer matches the logging time zone
[07:11] <waykool99> testing live run dvd ubuntu studio v14.04 LTS 64 bit. love it. uses most favorites old school programs 10.04 did. except... 'deb conf' popup flashes, which i had problems with in 12.04. possibly seemed the cause of many of my crashes.
[07:11] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: matched*
[07:12] <dw1> waykool99: sounds like normal installation stuff
[07:12] <alnassafi> I am trying to compile sendmail with linking -llberi .. and the ld says /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llberi
[07:12] <waykool99> by chance, does anyone use Tiger security program?
[07:12] <alnassafi> where can I find it and part of which library?
[07:12] <sl33k_> dw1: autoremove command says the same think.that jre dependency not met
[07:13] <dw1> sl33k_: what dependency
[07:13] <dw1> sl33k_: let me look........
[07:13] <sl33k_> dw1: The following packages have unmet dependencies: default-jre: Depends: default-jre-headless (= 1:1.6-43ubuntu2) but 1.6-34 is installed
[07:16] <rumpel> sl33k_, what do you think, what it means?
[07:16] <sl33k_> rumpel: pardon me?
[07:17] <dw1> sl33k_: well it seems installing java1-runtime-headless java2-runtime-headless java5-runtime-headless java6-runtime-headless may fix the issues but it seems something non-default has been done
[07:17] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: https://pastee.org/htkjt
[07:17] <jkrx> sl33k_: could be a broken link somewhere
[07:17] <rumpel> sl33k_, I'm interested in your interpretation of that message
[07:18] <waykool99> are you talking about Ice Tea Java plugin for Firefox?
[07:18] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: please paste output of fail2ban-regex /var/log/messages /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/asterisk.conf
[07:19] <sl33k_> rumpel: jre dependant package is not found
[07:19] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: https://pastee.org/kfrtf
[07:20] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: in your fail2ban.conf asterisk is set to /var/log/messages not /var/log/asterisk/messages ;)
[07:20] <rumpel> sl33k_, no. It wants to install a package, but there is already a package with that name but a different version. You need to upgrade that.
[07:20] <kumar[at]pt> https://pastee.org/qk4bh
[07:21] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: so change the entry in fail2ban.conf to /var/log/asterisk/messages
[07:21] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: then restart fail2ban
[07:22] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: and it should work
[07:22] <kumar[at]pt> tried several times :(
[07:22] <kumar[at]pt> fail2ban.conf do not have log entires path settings
[07:22] <master_> dw1, I am back, when rebooting, I found that I am using 12.04 lts.
[07:22] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: under [asterisk] in fail2ban.conf change logpath  = /var/log/messages to the right path
[07:23] <sl33k_> rumpel: I am scared the system will go down. cant think objectively
[07:23] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: you mean jail.conf ?
[07:23] <blueingress> dw1, I am back, when rebooting, I found that I am using 12.04 lts.
[07:23] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: oh yeah.. jail.local ?
[07:24] <salsero> blueingress: you have to wait if you wanna keep in the LTs
[07:24] <logicuk> hello all im a newbie to linux, is there a gui app i can use to access my server so i can upload files that supports the "sudo su" command
[07:24] <salsero> otherwise you can upgrade do 12.10 then 13.04 then 13.10 then 14.04
[07:24] <logicuk> im not skilled enough to upload files via cmd line and the terminal
[07:24] <sl33k_> guys any solution to my problem?
[07:24] <salsero> logicuk: filezilla client
[07:24] <rumpel> sl33k_, being the admin always comes with some risk. Make backups. If you need to upgrade certain packages to install other stuff, you are already heading into experimental land.
[07:25] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: at this moment it is /var/log/messages..should i change to /var/log/asterisk/messages ?
[07:25] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: "Every .conf file can be overridden with a file named .local. The .conf file is read first, then .local"
[07:25] <alnassafi> liblber.so is part of ldap .. but where llberi comes from?
[07:26] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: so yeah, if you have jail.local, enable asterisk and check the log path there, otherwise in jail.conf
[07:26] <rumpel> logicuk, scp. And "sudo su" shows, that you don't actually know the meaning of "sudo" and/or "su"
[07:26] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: fail2ban.conf shouldnt be relevant.. my bad
[07:26] <Ben64> logicuk: you should never use sudo su, ever
[07:27] <sl33k_> rumpel: Is there anything to make the error go away?
[07:27] <rumpel> sl33k_, yes. Deinstall the conflicting package, install a package with the needed version (or higher) manually.
[07:27] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: fail2ban.conf do not have much conf to alter for my purpose..its all jail.conf i have to change
[07:28] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: yes
[07:28] <blueingress> salsero, no, lts is not necessary, I just want the new update.
[07:28] <salsero> blueingress: not possible
[07:28] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: so make sure asterisk is enabled and log target is correct in jail.conf
[07:28] <rumpel> sl33k_, the thing is that you might upgrade even more stuff to install the newer package.
[07:29] <Ben64> blueingress: what are you trying to do?
[07:29] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: then service fail2ban restart
[07:29] <dannyedwrds> Im trying to run the live CD of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and once it gets past the ubuntu boot screen all I get is a black screen nothing else
[07:29] <rumpel> sl33k_, if you need very new packages, choose a distro that offers that. Sometimes better then to start upgrading packages manually.
[07:29] <kumar[at]pt> yeah tried that..but no luck :(
[07:29] <blueingress> Ben64, leave 12.04 and go for 14.04
[07:29] <kumar[at]pt> in jail.conf asterisk has 3 entried that i do not undersatnds
[07:30] <kumar[at]pt> asterisk, asterisk-tcp, asterisk-udp
[07:30] <Ben64> blueingress: easy. sudo do-release-upgrade -d
[07:30] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: mine only has asterisk-tcp and asterisk-udp . i would enable them both
[07:31] <blueingress> Ben64, wow, it is running
[07:31] <kumar[at]pt> my f2b version is 0.8.11
[07:32] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: so is mine. patebin all the asterisk sections if you want
[07:32] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: you should only need 2 sections, one for tcp and one for udp
[07:33] <kumar[at]pt> let me try again disabling asterisk
[07:33] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: brb
[07:33] <shajeen> any one know how to convert horizontal video to vertical video
[07:33] <sl33k_> Does this message help? E: /var/cache/apt/archives/default-jre-headless_1%3a1.6-43ubuntu2_i386.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk', which is also in package openjdk-6-jre-headless 6b24-1.11.3-1ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>
[07:34] <sl33k_> in figuring out the solution
[07:35] <rumpel> sl33k_, well... it doesn't want to overwrite stuff that is already installed by a different package.
[07:36] <sl33k_> rumpel: Can I reinstall jre/jdk?
[07:36] <rumpel> sl33k_, yes.
[07:37] <rumpel> sl33k_, you seem trying to upgrade the package. So first remove/deinstall that package in your package manager. Then manually try to install the newer package. But be sure that you actually need that newer version.
[07:37] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: no success
[07:38] <kumar[at]pt> i thing noticed..the port defined under asterisk-tcp and asterisk-udp are 5060 and 5061
[07:38] <kumar[at]pt> but my sip clients are not registering on that ports
[07:39] <kumar[at]pt> how should i block all ports of sip protocol
[07:39] <sl33k_> rumpel: How would I understand which one to remove? Here is jdk package list http://pastebin.com/xAtJx9HT
[07:39] <salsero> why not just use oracle java?...
[07:44] <rww> probably because Oracle's licensing for their Java sucks, so we can't redistribute it, and people should run screaming from anything they maintain these days because they're actively hostile to free software
[07:45] <dannyedwrds> Im trying to run the live CD of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and once it gets past the ubuntu boot screen all I get is a black screen nothing else
[07:45] <Phlow> dannyedwrds, laptop with nvidia optimus?
[07:46] <sl33k_> salsero: can you give me the instructions for oracle java?
[07:46] <dannyedwrds> Phlow: Negative AMD Radeon HD 8400
[07:46] <salsero> http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[07:47] <rww> I note that PPAs in general and Oracle Java PPAs specifically are not supported in #ubuntu, so if that breaks anything, you get to keep both pieces and figure it out yourself.
[07:47] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: well your fail2ban-regex output shows there are Failregex: matches so it should block those IPs
[07:48] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: on whatever ports are configured for the asterisk filter
[07:49] <sl33k_> salsero: now this issue cropped up http://pastebin.com/mMuFjBUk
[07:49] <dannyedwrds> Phlow Any ideas?
[07:49] <kumar[at]pt> dw1: ok….any clue to make it working
[07:50] <rww> sl33k_: install the package python-pycurl
[07:50] <dw1> kumar[at]pt: and there should be entries like WARNING [asterisk-tcp] Ban <IP_ADDRESS> in /var/log/fail2ban.log
[07:52] <waykool99> danny, i have same black screen problem all the time. #1 cause is, too many powerful USB devices. Remedy: powered USB hub. Others: you need the correct graphics card drivers.
[07:53] <waykool99> a Live cd/dvd run needs a restart after installing graphics drivers, which is impossible without installing the OS to hard drive.
[07:53] <dannyedwrds> waykool99: I don't have anything USB attached to my laptop I removed everything like that before I started it well the only thing that's connected is my 2 TB external HD which im bootin the live cd from because I don't have any USB drives or dvds
[07:54] <rww> sl33k_: and as far as your /actual/ problem goes, you appear to be halfway between lucid and precise, and you should probably be bothered by this, since lucid doesn't get security updates for desktop packages.
[07:54] <rww> sl33k_: but that sounds like Happy Fun Times and I am going to bed, so I'll leave that to someone else to figure out.
[07:55] <MaxFrames> hello
[07:55] <sl33k_> rww: yeah my install went wrong yesterday.
[07:56] <MaxFrames> I have installed ubuntu w/o a network connection, so as soon as possible I had to download and install the missing language support files, but even after that, many labels are still in english, how can I fix this?
[07:56] <waykool99> another cause of black screens, a weak power supply or possible failing power supply will do that too.
[07:56] <rww> sl33k_: you should probably fix that before you add another PPA and install packages we don't support from a hostile vendor
[07:57] <sl33k_> rww I will be paging for help
[07:57] <dannyedwrds> waykool99: Any other ideas?
[07:57] <matnel> urgh. I have 14.04 server (now running), but it loses the network connections at random, any ideas where to work on this? (i.e. I'm rather lost)
[07:58] <waykool99> 10 bucks says somethings not letting something not get enough power, but i could be wrong.
[07:59] <sl33k_> Guys I tried to upgrade to precise from lucid but that went haywire it seems. Some repository dependency issues. How do I fix the upgrade? Do I revert it?
[07:59] <owh> waykool99: What OS are you running that requires a restart to install graphics drivers on a LiveCD? I mean, why are you running a LiveCD that requires graphics drivers to do anything other than fixing an issue with the real OS, or installing it in the first place?
[07:59] <waykool99> have 5 very, very old computers. 5-16 years old.
[08:00]  * owh is waiting for the punch-line.
[08:00] <dannyedwrds> waykool99: I don't know what couldn't be letting it get power the external is powered from an outlet and my laptop is plugged in and ive used it on other laptops in the past to install different OS's
[08:01] <waykool99> 'ubuntu Restricted drivers' usually wants to upgrade nVidia drivers when i'm on live dvd.
[08:01] <Squall5668> quick question for anyone, do "purge mysql-server" and "remove mysql-server" remove the database files as well? Im guessing purge does, but just making sure
[08:01] <kiorky> rypervenche: some news ?
[08:02] <dw1> sl33k_: are you sure you tried to upgrade to lucid?  those commands you showed before werent release upgrade commands, just package upgrade
[08:02] <owh> dannyedwrds: An inbuilt USB hub can only produce so much juice. Adding an externally powered one will power the devices, reducing the load on the inbuilt hardware.
[08:02] <waykool99> thank you danny.
[08:03] <dannyedwrds> owh: Roger I understand that what im asking is why when loading the live cd after the ubuntu boot screen my screen stays pitch black
[08:03] <dw1> sl33k_: anyway like I said the dependences seem to be able to be able to be met by 4 packages
[08:03] <dw1> sl33k_: java1-runtime-headless java2-runtime-headless java5-runtime-headless java6-runtime-headless
[08:03] <sl33k_> dw1: yes yesterday I tried. I then cancelled my upgrade. Got this instructions from one resident ubuntu expert here http://etherpad.osuosl.org/ahsan1 .I slept an my power went off.
[08:04] <owh> dannyedwrds: Likely because it's switched to a video mode that isn't supported by the card. You can add a boot parameter, nomodeset, which may assist.
[08:04] <waykool99> but, beware of powered USB hubs that 'add' power to all USB ports. i fried 3 WD USB external drives that way.
[08:04] <dw1> sl33k_: should have gone 12.04 -> 14.04 not to the unsupported versions
[08:04] <dw1> sl33k_: yeah those are not release upgrade commands
[08:04] <sl33k_> dw1: hmm but my naivete shows
[08:04] <Squall5668> nevermind, neither does
[08:05] <dw1> sl33k_: ahh that was supposed to fix the canceled upgrade. i get it
[08:05] <magic> hello
[08:05] <sl33k_> yes dw1
[08:05] <dannyedwrds> owh: So I should put the boot peramiter nomodeset and then install proprietary graphic drivers?
[08:05] <sl33k_> and I somehow slept till the pc turned off
[08:05] <dw1> sl33k_: its easy to be confused because 14.04 is not offered by default you need the -d flag at this time
[08:06] <sl33k_> do I fire release upgrade command
[08:06] <waykool99> if ubuntu downloads says it needs to install 'restricted drivers', yep.
[08:07] <dw1> sl33k_: if it was me i would try to fix dependencies which seem minor by installing java1-runtime-headless java2-runtime-headless java5-runtime-headless java6-runtime-headless
[08:07] <owh> dannyedwrds: No. nomodeset will prevent certain polling of the video card. You may find that you have a useable picture with it set. No need to install proprietary drivers.
[08:07] <salsero> i would do that too sl33k_
[08:07] <dw1> sl33k_: but i really dont know what state youre in or what might happen
[08:07] <waykool99> good idea owh
[08:07] <owh> dannyedwrds: http://askubuntu.com/questions/207175/what-does-nomodeset-do
[08:08] <dannyedwrds> owh:  Thanks
[08:08] <dannyedwrds> waykool99: Thanks aswell
[08:08] <waykool99> you're very welcome
[08:08] <dw1> sl33k_: i guess now you might have to upgrade to 12.10, 13.04, 13.10 and finally 14.04
[08:08] <sl33k_> dw1: sudo apt-get java1-runtime-headless ... ?
[08:08] <owh> Pleasure dannyedwrds
[08:09] <dw1> sl33k_: apt-get install
[08:09] <dannyedwrds> waykool99:  Yea im trying to get away from windows 8.1 its annoying lol
[08:09] <sl33k_> *install
[08:09] <salsero> dannyedwrds: nice move
[08:09] <salsero> and a wise one
[08:09] <waykool99> left win xp pro and media center edition 5 years ago, and never looked back.
[08:10] <sl33k_> dw1: Package java1-runtime-headless is a virtual package provided by: gcj-jre-headless 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 gcj-4.6-jre-headless 4.6.3-1ubuntu2
[08:10] <sl33k_> You should explicitly select one to install.
[08:10] <dannyedwrds> salsero: Plus being deployed the internet sucks so I can't even update windows 8 very much so im going to something that's a little safer lol plus I perfer ubuntu
[08:10] <dw1> sl33k_: i see, well you could try instlaling one :)
[08:10] <salsero> prefer* sure mate, nice thing
[08:11] <dw1> sl33k_: but you may want to consider backing up everything and doing fresh install of 14.04
[08:12]  * salsero only if it's beyond repair...
[08:12] <dw1> sl33k_: partial upgrades are a mess, and doing 4 upgrades to get to 14.04 would take quite a while
[08:13] <waykool99> is it possible,  using 'wine' etc, to run old win 9x games? thought possibly installing the games on a separate drive formatted to FAT32?
[08:13] <sl33k_> salsero, dw1: how much time does fresh install take?
[08:13] <dw1> sl33k_: prob 20-30 mins or so
[08:13] <salsero> about 15 minutes without download time
[08:14] <dw1> sl33k_: plus configuration and installing things you like
[08:14] <sl33k_> dw1, salsero: which is the easiest method? Pen drive?
[08:15] <dw1> yup
[08:15] <salsero> ye
[08:17] <waykool99> danny, actually, windows 8 is great if you don't mind all the spying eyes i.e. NSA, DRM and other letters of the alphabet.

[08:25] <sl33k_> dw1: will my file system be taken care of?

[08:27] <dw1> sl33k_: as long as you dont choose "wipe the drive" it might be ok
[08:27] <sl33k_> dw1, salsero: installing everything from scratch makes me feel like a loser. normal?
[08:27] <salsero> ye, kinda
[08:27] <dw1> sl33k_: but if it was me i might like to wipe the drive if my data wasnt to big to take offline
[08:27] <salsero> you gave up
[08:27] <dw1> sl33k_: backup important/smaller stuff anyway
[08:28] <waykool99> under Window Manager Tweaks, tab Accessibility, what does 'Use edge resistance instead of window snapping' mean?
[08:29] <sl33k_> dw1: what does /home on a separate partition say?
[08:29] <sl33k_> in that question
[08:29] <dw1> sl33k_: its just there to confuse you
[08:30] <dw1> sl33k_: its similar with or without a separate partition
[08:30] <dw1> sl33k_: i think
[08:30] <dw1> sl33k_: i have never reinstalled over top of a working install.  i prefer to wipe
[08:31] <dw1> sl33k_: be careful
[08:31] <waykool99> agrees with dw1
[08:32] <tiblock> Hi. I have .deb file, how i can look inside it? I want see post_install script.
[08:33] <dw1> sl33k_: back up important things no matter what you do
[08:34] <llutz> tiblock: dpkg -x package.deb /tmp/
[08:34] <llutz> tiblock: or "ar x foo.deb ; tar xzf data.tar.gz"
[08:35] <tiblock> llutz, worked. Thank you very much.
[08:36] <waykool99> oh, i downloaded a 'tar.xz' file. Archive manager couldn't extract it. whats the difference between .bz and .xz file?
[08:37] <dw1> different compression program
[08:37] <llutz> waykool99: different compressing algos
[08:37] <dw1> waykool99: bzip and.. xzip?
[08:38] <llutz> dw1: xz not xzip
[08:38] <llutz> waykool99: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xz
[08:39] <waykool99> its the bundled custom browser with tor for usb thumb drives but i prefer to use a dvd-r of tor Tails.
[08:39] <llutz> waykool99: apt-get install xz-utils
[08:40] <waykool99> thank you llutz
[08:41] <waykool99> for URL and the apt-get
[08:47] <sl33k_> dw1: How does wipe the drive differ? Are other file systems wiped off?
[08:48] <dw1> sl33k_: depends what you choose i guess
[08:48] <dw1> sl33k_: which might vary depending on if you dual boot, etc
[08:49] <dw1> sl33k_: i would just wipe the ubuntu partitions and put it in there
[08:49] <dw1> sl33k_: wipe/delete
[08:49] <sl33k_> dw1: I dual boot fyi
[08:49] <dw1> sl33k_: ic
[08:49] <sl33k_> dw1: could you elaborate:  i would just wipe the ubuntu partitions and put it in there . I am hopelessly newbie
[08:50] <sl33k_> and painfully dense
[08:50] <dw1> sl33k_: i think the installer lets you delete partitions
[08:50] <dw1> sl33k_: so you could delete the ubuntu ones and start new
[08:51] <sl33k_> dw1: and my drive data from windows d drive and so on?
[08:51] <dw1> sl33k_: dont delete those ones.
[08:51] <sl33k_> dw1: what are the inplications of deleting partitions?
[08:51] <dw1> sl33k_: windows, GPT, EFI, etc. leave those
[08:51] <dw1> sl33k_: lots of bad things
[08:52] <sl33k_> dw1: are there any screenshots on the web of the installer dialog you mention?
[08:52] <sl33k_> and of course the partitions
[08:52] <sl33k_> dw1: How are partitions different from window drives?
[08:54] <salsero> completely different
[08:54] <salsero> they make more sense
[08:55] <sl33k_> Is my partitions normal? http://pastebin.com/AqZ7ytzy
[08:56] <dw1> sl33k_: so you would only want to mess with 8 and 9
[08:56] <sl33k_> which one do I need to overwrite? which one to protect?
[08:57] <foofoobar> Hi. Is there a simple way to view my outgoing kb/s traffic?
[08:57] <llutz> !info iftop | foofoobar
[08:58] <dw1> sl33k_: if you just delete them with gparted or whatever then it should be straightforward to install to the empty space
[08:58] <dw1> sl33k_: -after- backups of course
[08:58] <dw1> sl33k_: and after you make a working liveusb
[08:58] <dw1> sl33k_: the installer may offer to wipe or delete them too not sure
[08:58] <foofoobar> llutz, nice, thank you!
[08:59] <sl33k_> dw1: the installer will delete the sda8/9 apparently.
[08:59] <k1l> sl33k_: if you start the installtion from a usb the installer will recognize the old ubuntu install and will offer to install over that old install. that worked for me.
[09:00] <sl33k_> k1l: so my sda numbers will remain same?
[09:00] <k1l> sl33k_: but i would suggest to make a 3rd partition for a seperate /home.
[09:00] <dw1> just when it seemed easy :D
[09:00] <k1l> sl33k_: yes
[09:00] <sl33k_> k1l: clueless. How would I know where my /home is?
[09:01] <BWestOz> I cannot install ubuntu on a PC. The installer crashes at the partitioning window. If I stop and run gparted, the drive (& partitions) are there but for some reason the installer cant see them. I can install Ms Win xp, win 8 and Debian but cannot install U13, 14 or mint 16. All crash at the same point. Any suggestions appreciate
[09:01] <k1l> sl33k_: your /home is now just a folder in the / partition
[09:01] <sl33k_> dw1: have heard so much about gparted. it resizes partitions I think. Correct?
[09:01] <Guest27914> hello i have a question on how to install ubuntu within a debian based OS
[09:01] <dw1> sl33k_: resizes, deletes, etc. but if you dont want to potentially break other things dont resize :)
[09:02] <sl33k_> k1l: How did you conclude that?
[09:02] <cfhowlett> !install|Guest27914
[09:02] <Guest27914> is it sudo apt-get install ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[09:02] <dw1> sl33k_: because you only have 2 linux partitions, ubuntu root and swap
[09:02] <k1l> sl33k_: that is very very easy: if you only have 2 partitions: / and swap. there can not be a seperate /home
[09:02] <hkraal> So I can install apache2-mpm-itk but cannot actually use it as it needs apache to run as root which cannot be done in 14.04 without recompiling apache2 with "-DBIG_SECURITY_HOLE"... does that qualify as a bug?
[09:02] <k1l> sl33k_: 1+1 maths
[09:02]  * dw1 watches a movie
[09:02] <sl33k_> dw1: how does resizing work - if we resize one then does it downsize others?
[09:02] <cfhowlett> Guest27914 that would not "install within debian"
[09:03] <dw1> sl33k_: you would have to shrink one to enlarge another
[09:03] <k1l> Guest27914: that is not gonna work
[09:03] <sl33k_> dw1: What is the use case for deleting partitions? Sorry no experience with deletions.
[09:03] <k1l> Guest27914: what are you trying to do?
[09:03] <cfhowlett> Guest27914 see the install link I sent - there's an option to install within linux.
[09:03] <Guest27914> what is not goining to work? i am trying to install ubuntu to duel boot
[09:03] <flospi> I have a weird issue. When I scan my own (ubuntu 14.04) machine with nmap, it displays different results every time. The CUPS port is always open, but it also displays some random high ports every now and then, which seem to be different every time i run nmap. Sometimes just one of the random ports is open, sometimes up to four. Among the ports are: 39644, 49130, 50413, 56196, 58975. What's going on?
[09:03] <k1l> sl33k_: making room for other stuff?!?
[09:03] <dw1> sl33k_: i would just do what k1l said, let the installer install over top of existing install
[09:04] <sl33k_> hmm sounds plausible
[09:04] <Guest27914> flospi i hope you using nmap is not related to you trying to hack....
[09:04] <k1l> Guest27914: then make a live-cd/live-usb and install ubuntu into own partitions
[09:04] <dw1> sl33k_: keep it simple
[09:04] <dw1> sl33k_: if you want to play with partitions, get a usb drive and play on that :)
[09:04] <larrypg> sl33k_, just make sure that you do not use the whole drive as that will erase windows
[09:04] <Guest27914> dwl very good suggestion
[09:05] <flospi> Guest27914: I am scanning localhost...
[09:05] <flospi> What could cause random high tcp ports to be open/closed between every nmap run?
[09:05] <flospi> I am scared it's some kind of port knocking rootkit
[09:05] <Guest27914> flospi what exactly are you trying to do?
[09:05] <flospi> Guest27914: determine what's going on
[09:06] <Guest27914> lots of ports can be open by default
[09:06] <k1l> flospi: see netstat -tulpen to see what the ports are directed to
[09:06] <flospi> ;p
[09:06] <flospi> k1l none of the ports are displayed by netstat
[09:06] <sl33k_> dw1, k1l, larrypg: does the install ask for specifying memory?
[09:07] <sl33k_> like 1.5G so forth?
[09:07] <Guest27914> well, then look up what those ports are used for then close the ports if you do not use the ports for the said use
[09:07] <k1l> sl33k_: what about you start the installer and ask when you get to a point and get stuck?
[09:07] <flospi> Guest27914: as i said, the ports are not actually open
[09:07] <k1l> sl33k_: the installed explains itself quite a lot. its very very easy
[09:07] <flospi> Guest27914: but connections on random high tcp ports are accepted once in a while
[09:07] <flospi> and the ports are immediately closed afterwards
[09:08] <Guest27914> rootkit?
[09:08] <flospi> if i run nmap 10 times in a row, it will display different of these high tcp ports as being open between runs, while none of those are displayed by netstat
[09:08] <Guest27914> or maybe a back door trojan ?
[09:09] <flospi> yeah that was my thought, was just hoping that there was some sort of known issue that could cause this otherwise
[09:09]  * sl33k_ 'I should stop the mental gymnastics'
[09:09] <Guest27914> nmap is not the best software to be honest so i would probably believe netstat over nmap in my opinion
[09:10] <flospi> well a rootkit would hide the connections
[09:10] <flospi> so no one else has this issue when running nmap localhost -p1-65535 a few times in a row?
[09:11] <Guest27914> let me check for you flospi the OS that i am running has it built in
[09:13] <Guest27914> i might not be the best option to test this though because i accidently deleted a partition with windows on it and now i can't get kali-linux out of my system
[09:13] <Guest27914> even with a recovery disk
[09:13] <flospi> to illustrate the issue (nmap output): http://pastebin.com/9gc9KhsZ
[09:14] <k1l> Guest27914: just run a live usb with ubuntu and install that. choose "use all disk" in the installer. that will wipe the disk and install ubuntu
[09:14] <cfhowlett> Guest27914 this ^^^
[09:14] <Guest27914> kil that is what i planned on doing lol
[09:15] <k1l> Guest27914: then download the iso. put that on the usb (with dd) and reboot. done
[09:15] <Guest27914> flospi it might be because you are scanning your own network ?
[09:15] <flospi> i am scanning localhost
[09:15] <Guest27914> oh
[09:16] <Guest27914> to be honest though for someone to use a back door trojan they would have to be pretty advanced
[09:16] <flospi> ;p
[09:17] <Guest27914> i wouldn't worry about it unless you have weird things happening
[09:17] <flospi> haha i'd say this is pretty weird
[09:17] <sl33k_> can I install the iso from usb?
[09:17] <Guest27914> yes sl33k
[09:17] <sl33k_> do i need to compress it or something?
[09:18] <Guest27914> no an iso file is an image
[09:18] <Guest27914> you would need to decompress the file to get the setup file
[09:18] <Guest27914> unless you are installing it in vmware
[09:19] <sl33k_> is there a wiki page I can refer for this?
[09:19] <Guest27914> yes let me find it for you :)
[09:20] <Guest27914> are you trying to do it from a usb a cd or just right on your current OS?
[09:20] <k1l> sl33k_: just dd the .iso onto the usb
[09:21] <k1l> !install | sl33k_
[09:21] <sl33k_> k1l: dd?
[09:22] <k1l> sl33k_: yes, dd
[09:22] <Guest27914> kil i don't think he knows what dd is
[09:22] <[Gentoo]> direct debit
[09:22] <k1l> i thought you were running a ubuntu already
[09:22] <Sohron> man dd
[09:23] <Sohron> sl33k_: if you're on ubuntu already there's the startup disk creator
[09:23] <k1l> sl33k_: see the installation wiki page. it offers all informations you need
[09:23] <sl33k_> yes on ubuntu
[09:23] <BWestOz> I'm trying to install U14. The installer cannot see the HD. Gparted and fdisk can but the installer does not display drive/partitions. Any ideas
[09:24] <BWestOz> apprecoated
[09:29] <steve___> Hello Ubuntu Community ... Can anyone tell me if the Google Hangout plugin has been fixed ?
[09:33] <BWestOz> is it possible to do a command line install with U14?
[09:33] <salsero> ye
[09:33] <BWestOz> how?
[09:33] <DJones> !minimal | BWestOz
[09:34] <DJones> BWestOz: The minimal cd is the only since the alternate iso's were dropped, as the bot said, it'll download most packages via the net during installation
[09:34] <BWestOz> I'm just trying to find an installer that won't crash
[09:35] <BWestOz> I can install debian but not ubuntu
[09:45] <joelmo> can i make a init config that starts two processes
[09:45] <n13z> BWestOz: Excuse me if I bother you, but, have you scrolled down to search for disks in the installation menu? A coworker was saying same as you and that was his problem.
[09:45] <hufg> joelmo: yes your init config can do many things
[09:46] <hufg> not sure what you mean but add script to init.d use chkconfig to add it to "boot sequence" whatever it is
[09:47] <joelmo> i was thinkging to use upstart
[09:47] <BWestOz> n13z; I'll try ...
[09:47] <nodedfree> what is the best way to make bash file make installations? such as "sudo apt-get install something" and then configure and answering questions the installation asks
[09:48] <assistente> hi to all! i have a problem: after screen lock on xubuntu 14.04 64bit the keyboard don't work on firefox, then of i switch to a terminal window and type something, then switch to firefox the keyboard writes. succestions?
[09:49] <captainmustard> nodedfree you could probably just use apt-get install -y {packages}
[09:49] <captainmustard> I would think
[09:49] <hufg> joelmo: why whats the problem with chkconfig
[09:50] <nodedfree> captainmustard, yes.. after installation i order to run the proccess, configuration needed.. how bash file can answer questions?
[09:50] <nodedfree> like username, password, port..
[09:50] <n13z> nodedfree: I don't like to invoque sudo inside of a script, I use sudo to invoque script.
[09:50] <nodedfree> i know the order of the questions if this helps
[09:50] <joelmo> hugf upstars config files looks much cleaner, i don't now much difference between those though
[09:51] <hufg> just copy one of the scripts from init.d modify priorities define start stop chkconfig --add scriptname
[09:51] <hufg> ok
[09:52] <BWestOz> n13z; how do I scroll down?
[09:56] <hufg> joelmo: http://spiralbound.net/blog/2007/07/23/example-linux-init-script/, copy script to /etc/init.d/, sudo chkconfig --add scriptname/servicename
[09:56] <hufg> easy work!
[09:57] <someHuman> I want grub2 to load by default whenever I boot.
[09:58] <someHuman> Instead of Windows being loaded when I don't press anything.
[09:58] <graingert> anyone know how to get Ubuntu 64bit 14.04 usb working in UEFI
[09:58] <graingert> I've set my laptop to UEFI only mode with secureboot and it does not boot
[09:59] <BWestOz> n13z; there is nowhere to scroll down. I am at a window "Install - Installation Type" that is supposed to display partition info but it is blank. It is not seeing the drive. If I cancel I can see the drive with fdisk & gparted but the installer doesn't see it. Is there another way to continue with the installation?
[10:01] <n13z> BWestOz: Using live CD?
[10:01] <helpmeplease> soo, i can't install ubuntu from a cd or usb because kali linux is preventing it...
[10:02] <BWestOz> n13z; it's 14 install that gives option of live or install
[10:02] <BWestOz> would I better off starting the live and installing it from there somehow?
[10:02] <n13z> BWestOz: Maybe you have a software blocking the install from reading the disks
[10:03] <lkthomas> hey guys
[10:03] <lkthomas> how could I list update-rc.d all services ?
[10:03] <BWestOz> n13z; eh? there's nothing on the PC
[10:03] <n13z> On the Ubuntu installer.
[10:04] <n13z> Something like dmraid or mdadm
[10:04] <adeligen> I'm having audio troubles with 14.04. There is a constant audio "pop" on my system. When I open up "Sound Settings" I see "Analog Output" as my device. Whenever there is a pop in audio, I see a "Headphones" output device appear for a moment. This doesn't happen in OS X or Windows, just Ubuntu. How would I go about debugging this issue?
[10:05] <n13z> BWestOz: Try running from live, search for dmraid or mdadm and remove it from live, then install. If it fails, use fdisk/parted to delete any partition on destination disk.
[10:06] <helpmeplease> any other way to install ubuntu besides a usb or a cd/dvd?
[10:06] <BWestOz> n13z; thanks for your suggestions
[10:07] <adeligen> helpmeplease: A PXE install

[10:21] <helpmeplease> there is no way for me to get this other operating system out of my computer...
[10:21] <Rory> helpmeplease: Make an Ubuntu flash drive and delete the partition?

[10:30] <lexande> i have a machine where du reports much more space used than df (df says only 1.4T used but a du of the files gives 18T).  i know of many reasons for the opposite to happen (df > du due to reserved space, open processes etc) but what would cause df to show less space used than du?
[10:31] <lexande> (note this persists through reboot)

[10:41] <helpmeplease> like that?
[10:41] <k1l> helpmeplease: no
[10:42] <helpmeplease> that was what was on the ubuntu website
[10:42] <k1l> helpmeplease: see the command line interface howto on that site: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles#Ubuntu
[10:42] <polydr> ooh ubuntu can dd a bootable usb now? That might explain why the macs can't boot them.
[10:42] <polydr> My machine has an English(UK) keyboard and claims to have EN(UK) selected for keyboard and language, however, it's not working: it's using a different map (probably US)
[10:43] <helpmeplease> unable to locate package usb-imagewriter....
[10:43] <polydr> helpmeplease: Are you on an Ubuntu?
[10:43] <k1l> helpmeplease: stop tgat
[10:44] <helpmeplease> stop what
[10:44] <k1l> helpmeplease: what did i just tell you? use dd. i didnt tell you to use imagewriter or other stuff
[10:44] <jkrx> polydr: edit locale.conf
[10:44] <polydr> helpmeplease: use the COMMAND LINE thing on that site he linked you. Don't do the graphical part.
[10:44] <turrettype> I wish a beautiful day to ubuntu community!
[10:44] <polydr> jkrx: thanks
[10:45] <helpmeplease> well it does not say dd on that page... it says command line like he said...
[10:45] <polydr> helpmeplease: It does, but you need to read it BEFORE you start typing or pressing
[10:45] <k1l> helpmeplease: a cant help you if you dont read what and follow what we suggest you
[10:46] <polydr> helpmeplease: start from the 'command line interface' part
[10:46] <turrettype> I posed this question to liferea channel, but it seems to be quiet there at the moment. does anyone use liferea? how does bookmark function work? when I choose to bookmark a link, nothing happens.
[10:46] <jkrx> polydr: sorry locale.gen
[10:46] <helpmeplease> Run sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/devicenode bs=1M
[10:47] <k1l> helpmeplease: yes, but you need to adjust that command. its explained in the text in that chapter. so please read!
[10:47] <k1l> and with read i dont mean: just grab the command
[10:48] <AlexPortable> is there a list of things canonical added, so i can remove them? it's bad to have programs connecting to internet on a mobile connection
[10:49] <polydr> jkrx: thanks, looking at that
[10:49] <k1l> AlexPortable: just disable online search results in the privacy settings
[10:50] <jkrx> polydr: Ubuntu apparently handles this different but heres how it works https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Locale
[10:50] <AlexPortable> k1l: that's all?
[10:50] <polydr> k1l: AlexPortable this reminds we, it would be nice to have some kind of application levle firewall that could restrict certain apps to certain max bandwidth when on certain connections
[10:50] <polydr> jkrx: Thank you once more!
[10:50] <AlexPortable> hmm thats a good idea
[10:50] <jkrx> polydr: no problems :)
[10:51] <helpmeplease> and where do i get the image file because the download one is an iso file
[10:51] <AlexPortable> is there any way how to get the menu bar back in nautilus?
[10:51] <jkrx> polydr: Untangle handles bandwidth limits
[10:52] <polydr> helpmeplease: an ubuntu iso will work as the image file if you're on PC hwardware. Macs are a bit weird with dd'ed images
[10:52] <polydr> jkrx: per application?
[10:52] <jkrx> polydr: as far as I know, yes
[10:53] <polydr> jkrx: untangle.com?
[10:53] <jkrx> polydr: never had to do that myself but it should be able to handle per application
[10:53] <jkrx> polydr: yes
[10:53] <jkrx> polydr: problem is that untangle is a dedicated firewall
[10:54] <polydr> jkrx: looks like an enterprise tool, on their website there is no pricing, just "phone us for quote". Roughly can I ask if you know what it costs?
[10:54] <polydr> jkrx: Ah ok, USD 540 a year for an education licence
[10:54] <jkrx> polydr: they only charge for education and hardware
[10:55] <polydr> jkrx: THat's more than the data connection upgrade!
[10:55] <helpmeplease> this makes no sense
[10:56] <polydr> helpmeplease: use the dd command with the ubuntu iso as the image file (on the if side) and your usb as the output file (of) side
[10:57] <jkrx> helpmeplease: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DriveImaging
[10:57] <jkrx> helpmeplease: read there carefully and try to understand. Take your time. There is not much else we can do for you here
[10:57] <polydr> jkrx: I'll agree with you that it looks highly likely untangle will do it, but it seems to be quite expensive and may need a dedicated machine.
[10:58] <jkrx> polydr: it needs a dedicated machine
[10:58] <lucido> does anyone know here how to make rtl8111e gigabit network card work,which driver to use?
[10:58] <AlexPortable>  is there any way how to get the menu bar back in nautilus? -  is it possible to login at the same user at the same time with another WM? - how can i customize lightdm?  - how can I get the menu bar back in nautilus? - how to stop the gnome panel from crashing?
[10:58] <ABDU1989> How Match Tvheadend and showtime
[10:58] <jkrx> polydr: u could look at L7 filter tho
[10:59] <polydr> jkrx: brb, rebooting
[10:59] <jkrx> AlexPortable: that was alot of questions
[11:00] <AlexPortable> jkrx: jup i asked them a while back but nobody answered
[11:00] <AlexPortable> so now i combine them :D
[11:00] <jkrx> AlexPortable: have you looked at various eikis for the applications?
[11:00] <AlexPortable> yes
[11:00] <jkrx> AlexPortable: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM thats how you conigure lightdm

[11:02] <turrettype> could you please let me know if I can use the latest version of liferea on 12.04.? the currently installed version is way behind the latest stable one.
[11:02] <helpmeplease> root@kali:~# run sudo dd if=/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sda/ bs=1m
[11:02] <helpmeplease> like that?
[11:02] <polydr_> jkrx: ty, looking at L7
[11:02] <jkrx> helpmeplease: u dont need run
[11:02] <turrettype> asking to know in case it requires a later version.
[11:03] <turrettype> of ubuntu
[11:03] <jkrx> turrettype: check its dependencies
[11:03] <helpmeplease> dd: invaild number '1m
[11:03] <polydr_> helpmeplease: 1 not L
[11:03] <jkrx> helpmeplease: 1M
[11:04] <AlexPortable> jkrx: i can't really find how to customzize the lockscreen. i want to make it look the same as the login screen
[11:04] <helpmeplease> 1m
[11:04] <dw1> why would you dd the image to the hard drive
[11:04] <polydr_> helpmeplease: not sure it needs 'run' but I don;t know Kali
[11:04] <polydr_> dw1: He's supposed to be doing it a USB. GOod catch.
[11:04] <clarkk> I'm using Ubutnu 12.04. When I install inkscape, even though it states on this page that 0.48.4 is available, I only get 0.48.3 when i install it from the software centre. Does anyone know why this is please? https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/inkscape/
[11:04] <dw1> helpmeplease: you destroying the hard drive ?
[11:05] <dw1> helpmeplease: cause sda doesnt look like a usb stick
[11:05] <ikey> Quick q: don't know if this a known issue or such. After locking my screen and returning, using 'alt' to use HUD shortcuts doesn't actually work. I just get a spinner. This a thing or did I break something? :)
[11:05] <polydr_> clarkk: That is the correct version for Ubuntu Precise
[11:06] <DJones> clarkk: .48.4 is for Ubuntu 13.10, 12.04 uses <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:06] <polydr_> clarkk: If you click the ubuntu releases on the side of that page, you see what version they each have.
[11:06] <dw1> helpmeplease: if you write to sda youll likely lose everything on the drive
[11:06] <helpmeplease> one second it is either sdb or sdc
[11:07] <ABDU1989> help my
[11:07] <jkrx> AlexPortable: ah the lock screen. To change the lock screen wallpaper, create an XML file in /usr/share/images/desktop-base directory with the path to the image to be used as the lock screen wallpaper
[11:07] <SthNotTaken> How can I go about finding my .htaccess file
[11:07] <ABDU1989> How Match Tvheadend and showtime?
[11:07] <clarkk> oh I see. Thank you polydr_ and DJones . So there is no way for me to get the latest version on 12.04?
[11:07] <AlexPortable> not the wallpaper
[11:07] <AlexPortable> the lockscreen is ugly
[11:08] <dw1> SthNotTaken: thats for web sites.. whats your web folder
[11:08] <jkrx> AlexPortable: which greeter are you using?
[11:08] <helpmeplease> sudo dd if=/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb/ bs=1m
[11:08] <SthNotTaken> dw1: var/www ?
[11:08] <AlexPortable> jkrx: http://img.nl.eu.org/h0N.png
[11:08] <polydr_> clarkk: You could see if there is a 3rd party PPA, or you could build it from source, or perhaps on their website they have a newer version
[11:08] <ikey> you dont want that trailing slash... not a lot gonna happen
[11:08] <dw1> SthNotTaken: probably, possibly /var/www/html
[11:08] <ikey> nor the first one actually.. unless your file lives @ /
[11:09] <dw1> SthNotTaken: so it would be there.. and hidden (Ctrl-H to show in nautilus)
[11:09] <helpmeplease> what ikey?
[11:09] <dw1> SthNotTaken: ls -al in terminal
[11:09] <ikey> helpmeplease, /dev/sdb/ wont exist.
[11:09] <ikey> helpmeplease, /dev/sdb might
[11:09] <helpmeplease> take the / off after sdb
[11:09] <dw1> SthNotTaken: or it may not exist
[11:09] <ikey> and your if=/ assumes the file lives @ "/" - id hope it doesnt..
[11:09] <SthNotTaken> dw1: I know it exists because it protects my phpmyadmin page. I can't find it in WinSCP
[11:09] <clarkk> polydr_: if I build it from source, am I still going to have the dependencies problems? Ie it wanted to upgrade cairo2, but I didn't know what else that would break (such as unity)
[11:09] <SthNotTaken> dw1: I'm just not sure where I set it up. Is there any way to search in Putty?
[11:10] <helpmeplease> the file is on my desktop..
[11:10] <dw1> SthNotTaken: then its probably in the phpmyadmin folder
[11:10] <ikey> then its ~/Desktop/filename
[11:10] <jkrx> AlexPortable: I havent configured the lockscreen much as I dont use one but check out sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[11:10] <polydr_> clarkk: Yea that's complex but cirvumventable. It wouldbn't be my first choice with Precise
[11:10] <helpmeplease> with the ~
[11:10] <dw1> SthNotTaken: but if you installed the phpmyadmin package it wont be in /var/www
[11:10] <AlexPortable> jkrx: already have it installed. what should i configure?
[11:11] <ikey> AlexPortable, apache?
[11:11] <SthNotTaken> dw1: is there no way to open it in Putty without knowing the location? Like Crontab ?
[11:11] <clarkk> so which version does everyone recommend is the one to be on now? Which is regarded as most stable etc?
[11:11] <AlexPortable> ikey: whats that?
[11:11] <clarkk> so which *Ubuntu  version does everyone recommend is the one to be on now? Which is regarded as most stable etc?
[11:11] <ikey> oh. sorry got two messages mixed up :p
[11:11] <polydr_> clarkk: trusty is an LTS
[11:11] <jkrx> AlexPortable: check what lockscreen you have enabled. click on Ubuntu Unity Plugin and on the General tab, under "Lockscreen"
[11:11] <dw1> SthNotTaken: cd /var/www; find . -name .htaccess
[11:11] <clarkk> polydr_: 14.04?
[11:12] <AlexPortable> unity plugin isn't enabled
[11:12] <helpmeplease> root@kali:~# sudo dd if=/desktop/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1m
[11:12] <AlexPortable> there is no 'lockscreen' on the general tab
[11:12] <ikey> helpmeplease, not going to work, you wont have a /desktop/ ..
[11:12] <SthNotTaken> dw1: thanks
[11:12] <ikey> You'll have a ~/Desktop/
[11:12] <helpmeplease> i asked if i needed the ~ and you didn't asnwer
[11:12] <ikey> I already told you use ~/Desktop/
[11:13] <jechadwell99> After an upgrade to 14.04 this started happening to blender. It's nothing wrong with blender (the exact same file worked on the previous version). http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?334672-Weird-Selecting-(ubuntu)
[11:13] <SthNotTaken> dw1: are those 2 separate commands?
[11:13] <jkrx> AlexPortable: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--R-JOG7VPa8/UzQgJWuO3nI/AAAAAAAAR-c/yz2-x6NTxfU/s1600/ccsm-lockscreen-settings.png
[11:13] <dw1> SthNotTaken: yes, the semicolon will run them one at a time
[11:13] <jechadwell99> I think it's something wrong with the driver.
[11:13] <helpmeplease> root@kali:~# sudo dd if=~/desktop/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1m        so this sould work?
[11:13] <dw1> SthNotTaken: semicolon will separate them
[11:14] <ikey> helpmeplease, its case sensitive
[11:14] <AlexPortable> jkrx: http://img.nl.eu.org/Hho.png
[11:14] <SthNotTaken> dw1: it only changes the directory, doesn't do anything else. NO error
[11:14] <jkrx> AlexPortable: this is getting weird...
[11:14] <dw1> SthNotTaken: then there isnt an .htaccess anywhere in /var/www
[11:14] <AlexPortable> jkrx: i dont have unity i think
[11:14] <SthNotTaken> how could I search the entire system? Just by running the code after the semicolon?
[11:14] <helpmeplease> so what should be in caps?
[11:15] <helpmeplease> oh D
[11:15] <polydr_> helpmeplease: 'Desktop' not 'desktop' unless Kali is weird. As said, it is case sensitive
[11:15] <jkrx> AlexPortable: The option should still be there
[11:15] <dw1> SthNotTaken: yeah, from the root folder, but it will go through system folders too and show errors
[11:15] <jkrx> AlexPortable: hang on Ill install the app and check as Id ont have unity
[11:15] <dw1> SthNotTaken: another thing you can do is sudo updatedb which makes a database of all files, then use locate <filename>
[11:15] <helpmeplease> dd: invalid number `1m'
[11:15] <SthNotTaken> sudo updatedb; locate <.htaccess>
[11:15] <polydr_> helpmeplease: Try 1M
[11:16] <dw1> SthNotTaken: no < >
[11:16] <clarkk> if upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04, is it recommended to do a clean install? If not, is there any concern about legacy configs or packages remaining on the system after the upgrade?
[11:16] <dw1> SthNotTaken: sudo updatedb; locate .htaccess  -- it might take a little while to updatedb
[11:16] <polydr_> clarkk: yes and yes
[11:16] <helpmeplease> i think it is writing to it now
[11:16] <ikey> helpmeplease, then sit back and wait :)
[11:16] <clarkk> ugh
[11:16] <ikey> It's good to "sudo sync && sudo eject /dev/sdb" once it completes successfully
[11:17] <polydr_> clarkk: if precise isnt broken why upgrade?
[11:17] <ikey> You'll ensure all buffers are written and /dev/sdb is disconnected from udev/kernel
[11:17] <turrettype> thank you jkrx !
[11:17] <SthNotTaken> dw1: that did the trick! Found it!
[11:17] <helpmeplease> to safe remove it..
[11:17] <ikey> pretty much yeah :)
[11:17] <clarkk> polydr_: because I need inkscape and inkscape is crap on the version I have

[11:18] <ikey> Anywhom - anyone familiar with Unity HUD bugs?
[11:18] <Funkeh`> whats the best way to remote into ubuntu from windows graphically? xrdp requires xfce unfortunately.
[11:18] <clarkk> polydr_: I've tried that. It wants to upgrade libcairo2, on which unity depends
[11:18] <polydr_> clarkk: I see 0.48.4 there for precise. Did you try that exact one?
[11:19] <ikey> Funkeh`, i tend to use vnc for my machines, though ive not yet set my windows box up for remote tbh
[11:19] <clarkk> polydr_: how do I do that? I just saw one new version
[11:19] <ikey> my server runs centos and tiger-vnc.. works p good
[11:19] <clarkk> polydr_: let me try the process again. One moment...
[11:21] <jechadwell99> How can I test that my graphics driver is working correctly?
[11:21] <hebz0rl> hi is it possible to install an ubuntu server from a running ubuntu desktop?
[11:21] <ikey> jechadwell99, glxinfo? glxgears? see that 3D works?
[11:21] <Funkeh`> ikey, is there a specific program you're using that works on both platforms?
[11:21] <jkrx> jechadwell99: glxinfo
[11:22] <ikey> Funkeh`, well I try to avoid using my windows box - only got a replacement sent yesterday - i know tigervnc has a windows and mac binary - might be useful. from Linux I use vinagre to connect
[11:22] <MagicSpud> hello people. I know with apple systems you can make iso files in order to install the same OS (and all the programs and files you want in it) on several computers...
[11:22] <jkrx> jechadwell99: try  glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[11:22] <dw1> hebz0rl: install on the same computer.. ?
[11:23] <hebz0rl> dw1, yes
[11:23] <jechadwell99> it says that the graphics driver does work but there are some problems that have turned up recently that i think were related to driver problems
[11:23] <MagicSpud> my question is a bit twisty... could it be possible to use a virtualbox machine to do same thing with ubuntu OS?
[11:23] <hateball> MagicSpud: If you're looking to clone installs, I personally use clonezilla for that
[11:23] <dw1> hebz0rl: you could install in a virtualbox virtual machine
[11:23] <jechadwell99> like this one http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?334672-Weird-Selecting-(ubuntu)
[11:23] <dw1> hebz0rl: but otherwise just make a liveCD/USB
[11:23] <jkrx> jechadwell99: post grep '(EE)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:23] <dw1> hebz0rl: and boot it
[11:23] <ikey> remastersys? @ dw1 + hebz0rl
[11:24] <ikey> just a thought
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> MagicSpud: you could make an image of the partitions then use dd in liveCD to spit the image to a real drive
[11:24] <MagicSpud> hateball: yep but the point is the source Os is a virtualbox machine
[11:24] <ikey> darn i keep mixing nicks.
[11:24] <ervin_> Hello, if server is configured that root may not login via ssh, my user is in sudoers (asking password for sudo) is there any simple way to combine rsync with sudo ? (i need to copy to local machine some files only readable by root on server)
[11:25] <hateball> MagicSpud: And you're looking to restore it onto iron? Shouldnt be any big issues as long as it's a standard install really
[11:25] <ikey> ervin_, you could stick a script on the server and call it via ssh after rsync is done
[11:25] <ikey> i.e. a chown -R chmod -R
[11:25] <hateball> MagicSpud: Still the same kernel etc. Only issues you might run into are if you have something like nvidia drivers or some such that tries to load on non-nvidia hardware
[11:25] <MagicSpud> hateball onto iron yes but just because it is not a regular ubuntu...I managed to convert it into a AD
[11:25] <dw1> ervin_: you could enable public key authentication and login as root automatically
[11:26] <clarkk> it seems polydr_ has left
[11:26] <Funkeh`> ikey, does vinagre act as a server also? I want to remote into ubuntu from the win box
[11:26] <ervin_> dw1 - public key is on, but root login should stay off.
[11:26] <ikey> Funkeh`, not.. really. not in the sense you mean
[11:26] <jechadwell99> results of grep '(EE)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log : 	(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

[11:26] <ikey> Funkeh`, it has a listen mode but its still th evnc client
[11:26] <ikey> Funkeh`, you could just install a vnc server on the ubuntu box
[11:27] <hebz0rl> dw1, no i meant i have a running pxe system where i boot into a ubuntu desktop and was now wondering if i could just run the installation from that ubuntu desktop
[11:27] <Funkeh`> recommendation? :p
[11:27] <ikey> heh.
[11:27] <MagicSpud> hateball no nvidia issues it is a server
[11:27] <ikey> i think ubuntu has it built in somehow somewhere in the sharing options in the system settings
