[06:34] <wilee-nilee> Gyro54, killall soffice.bin
[06:34] <snark> rinzler, is more than one card listed?
[06:34] <wilee-nilee> Gyro54, That worked to kill mine had to google it. ;)
[06:36] <rinzler> snark: yes. I am using a non stock card.
[06:36] <passwoedhelp> help i dnt know my password
[06:36] <outofmana> hello?
[06:36] <rinzler> snark: I ultimately want to use my keyboard volume buttons to control the correct output
[06:36] <awestroke> passwoedhelp: hunter2?
[06:37] <outofmana> im really hoping someone here can help me
[06:37] <rinzler> outofmana: just ask, and if someone can answer, they will
[06:38] <outofmana> problem number 1) no sound in skyrim at all xubuntu 12.04
[06:38] <snark> rinzler, you might need to look at type of keyboard set in ubuntu   as in what TYPE of keyboard does ubuntu think you have
[06:39] <snark> rinzler, thats where the button mapping is actually done
[06:39] <outofmana> problem number 2) huge lag spikes in heroes of newerth, im on a desktop but would turning off power to the wifi card help?
[06:39] <rinzler> snark: as in layout?
[06:39] <snark> rinzler, as in manufacture of keyboard
[06:40] <snark> rinzler, as in for example   is it a microsoft multimedia keyboard
[06:40] <outofmana> Question 3) Could i get my linux drivers that work on 64bit, to work on win 7 64bit? (FOR MY WIFI CARD) ?
[06:40] <rinzler> snark: well, it maps all the special buttons correctly. It's a bluetooth version of the microsoft optical desktop, so yes, somewhat...
[06:40] <outofmana> i have done tons and tons of research and im hoping someone here came across more help then i have
[06:42] <outofmana> hello?
[06:42] <outofmana> am i dropping/
[06:42] <awestroke> outofmana: network lag spikes or graphical lag spikes
[06:42] <outofmana> it must be network because it shows the dc icon
[06:42] <rinzler> !wifi | outofmana
[06:43] <rinzler> there's something about wifi...
[06:43] <mobhero> hi, i need to monitor the apache2 servers requests and responses from gui (browsers).
[06:43] <kumar> hi guy how to install lamp in ubuntu
[06:43] <awestroke> kumar: that is easily googleable
[06:43] <Gyro54> wilee-nilee: Thanks
[06:44] <outofmana> i have not other options, i pay the neighbors to use wifi ethernet is not an option
[06:44] <outofmana> its certainly on the operating side problem wise.
[06:44] <outofmana> forget all my questions guys
[06:45] <wilee-nilee> !lamp
[06:45] <kumar> googled but its given problem to fetch pckge
[06:45] <wilee-nilee> Gyro54,  no problem. ;)
[06:45] <outofmana> i just want to know if its possible i could get my xubuntu 12.04 64 bit wifi card drivers to work on windows 7 64bit
[06:45] <outofmana> theoretically yes?
[06:46] <snark> outofmana, no ubuntu drivers will never work on windoz
[06:46] <outofmana> my wifi driver is in the b43legacy package which i have tried, but no luck on win 7 64bit assuming because i dont have the firmware installed? how would i go about that
[06:46] <shockingbehavur> !usb
[06:47] <rinzler> snark: the desired sound device is controlled by pulseaudio if that makes a difference...
[06:47] <kumar> wat is taskel
[06:47] <snark> outofmana, no ubuntu drivers will work in windoz    end off
[06:47] <outofmana> oh im screwed and windows xp i hate so much because it sucks for new games
[06:48] <shockingbehavur> taslsel you mean
[06:48] <shockingbehavur> tasksel
[06:48] <outofmana> i promised myself any problems i faced in linux i would take care
[06:48] <outofmana> not to go back
[06:48] <kumar> ya tASKEL
[06:49] <outofmana> after hours and hours of fixing all my hardware problems literally. skyrim has no sound at all. i havnt been able to find a fix i lag on hon and im tearing my hair out
[06:49] <snark> rinzler,   whats the brand name of the keyboard?    is it on the ubuntu compatability list?
[06:50] <d1rkp1tt> Hi Guys, I have just run up the 12_10 server install and wondering if someone could guide me through installing unity desktop
[06:50] <d1rkp1tt> or point me in the right direction
[06:51] <rinzler> snark: Microsoft. and it apparently does work with ubuntu. I can get the keyboard to control audio levels. my problem is getting it to control the right card.
[06:51] <outofmana> i was hoping for more intelligent help from this channel. all the questions all these guys are asking you can simply google IM SO MAD
[06:51] <shockingbehavur> kumar its to do with aptitude i think
[06:51] <d1rkp1tt> outofmana, who are you referring to?
[06:52] <outofmana> no one here installed skyrim and had a no sound problem?
[06:52] <rinzler> outofmana: wait... are you asking about how to install and play skyrim from inside winblows?
[06:52] <snark> rinzler, how about removing the other card and seeing if it works on its own?
[06:52] <aeon-ltd> outofmana: no one is foolish enough to run skyrim in linux and expect no problems
[06:53] <outofmana> i never said i expected no problems
[06:53] <rinzler> snark: that card is onboard audio. a part of the MB
[06:53] <d1rkp1tt> outofmana, Also, not an ubuntu question....
[06:53] <rinzler> snark: I could deinstall the software support possibly...
[06:53] <d1rkp1tt> Try the #skyrimonlinux channel
[06:53] <snark> rinzler, and the other card ?
[06:54] <snark> rinzler, onboard can be disabled from BIOS
[06:54] <rinzler> snark: a soundblaster Live
[06:55] <rinzler> snark: didn't think about that...
[06:55] <rinzler> snark: let me reboot and set that...
[06:55] <rinzler> brb
[06:55] <outofmana> yaya after hours of googling and no fix im sure none of u can help me, im just venting i guess didnt mean offense to anyone here
[06:56] <makuseru> Does anyone know of any way to get Amarok 1.4 working in 12.10? I've tried all the older guides, but they don't seem to work anymore. Packages seem to just be causing trouble with eachother.
[06:58] <excalibr> isn't there a latest ver..i think it's 2.x something
[07:01] <d1rkp1tt> So does anyone know how to install unity desktop on server? I have found this on google, but what troubles me is many of the examples are  different.
[07:02] <d1rkp1tt> is it just, apt-get install unity-desktop               ..
[07:02] <d1rkp1tt> or 2d ..
[07:02] <d1rkp1tt> There is a 3d and 2d version? or is it just 3d now
[07:03] <rinzler> d1rkp1tt: the 2d version is usually just a fallback for those who don't have adequate 3d support on their video cards.
[07:03] <snark> dlrkwhat kind of server is it?
[07:03] <ahmad> can someone help please, virtual box is not allowing shared folders until the user is added to vboxusers
[07:04] <ahmad> sudo usermod -G vboxusers -a $USER command is not working
[07:04] <snark> dlrkpltt    what kind of server is it?
[07:04] <d1rkp1tt> Ubuntu 12_10
[07:04] <excalibr> ahmad: sudo adduser $USER vboxusers
[07:04] <snark> dlrkpltt    what kind of server is it?    what does it do
[07:05] <d1rkp1tt> oh, test dev
[07:05] <d1rkp1tt> So i run eclipse etc
[07:05] <d1rkp1tt> dev environment
[07:05] <snark> dlrkpltt    why not try a lightweight desktop
[07:06] <d1rkp1tt> I kinda got used to unity in 12_10, now I quite like it
[07:06] <d1rkp1tt> hated it at first
[07:06] <d1rkp1tt> Been using default ubuntu desktops since 8_4
[07:06] <d1rkp1tt> But, I always download server edition and install it later...
[07:06] <d1rkp1tt> no reason why, its a bit dumb really
[07:07] <rinzler> snark: disabling onboard sound in BIOS worked perfectly Thanks!
[07:08] <snark> rinzler, np
[07:09] <excalibr> does anyone know any way to boot desktop iso into console mode ala server/alt iso?
[07:11] <aeon-ltd> excalibr: isn't there a cli option at boot?
[07:12] <darin_> well its not unity-desktop, that package doesnt exist
[07:13] <aeon-ltd> excalibr: if not why not just go to the vts after boot?
[07:13] <digitalunity> mornin all, is anyone using AwesomeWM? I seem to have a memory leak and an issue with the audio mute
[07:16] <excalibr> aeon-ltd: i want to avoid loading gui stuff since im loading the iso on low spec machine..need to rescue some data on the disk
[07:18] <e11bits> Still have problems after upgrade to 12.10 with nvidia graphics drivers and GeForce GTX 560 Ti
[07:19] <ahmad> sudo apt-get -y mesa-utils
[07:20] <ahmad> ellbits use that command ?
[07:20] <e11bits> ahmad: And then?
[07:21] <ButtDog> I've been doing a lot of research and I'm trying to figure out, if I can turn a bunch of old computers into a single cloud. Anyone have any ideas? Ubuntu server 12lts appears to have some options.
[07:21] <crizis> depends what you mean by "cloud"
[07:21] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, openstack
[07:21] <crizis> buzzwords, buzzwords
[07:22] <digitalunity> e11bits, whats the issue? I run two 560Ti's within 12.04 and AwesomeWM
[07:22] <ButtDog> crizis: I know exactly what you mean, sorry I'm a bit tired. I was thinking of somehow daisy chaining them together and running a single vm on all of them at once and balancing the cpu load(if possible)
[07:23] <digitalunity> sorry just realised you have upgraded to 12.10
[07:23] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt: I've been researching openstack and eucalyptus have you tried either?
[07:24] <e11bits> ahmed: should glxinfo tell me something?
[07:24] <d1rkp1tt> Openstack is getting huge, apparently Ubuntu supports it now.. havent tried it
[07:24] <panzersajt> hy! Can somebody help me with 'dd-ing' an image.
[07:24] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, Cloud aside, you can cluster.. but I think the cloud/openstack concept is about fast creation of machines?
[07:24] <panzersajt> I run the command but nothing happens
[07:24] <fairuz> panzersajt: fire up your question :) What the command you used?
[07:24] <d1rkp1tt> So users can spawn instances really fast in your "cloud"
[07:25] <ButtDog> d1krkp1tt, that's what i've gotten so far, I'm using the wrong term. I should be cluster, do you have any ideas on this? Thanks
[07:25] <panzersajt> fairuz, sudo dd if=ubuntu12.10_2012_09_30.img of=/dev/sde
[07:25] <d1rkp1tt> crizis, I agree with the "buzzword" thing btw, but meh, roll with it
[07:25] <crizis> ButtDog, um, no, you can't really create "one vm" out of them. you can do, lets say networked filesystem which shows up as one mount and uses all machines as hd, you can roundrobin apache to respond at all machines, you can do clustered mysql server...
[07:25] <d1rkp1tt> You CAN cluster Linux system as well
[07:26] <crizis> you can do buildbot with gcc that uses all machines for compiling..
[07:26] <crizis> depends what you're wanting to achieve
[07:26] <ButtDog> I have a bunch of old computer laying around
[07:26] <ButtDog> My new office has free power included, I was hoping to run some stuff on them
[07:26] <d1rkp1tt> I have installed linux as cluster where a control monitors and assigns tasks to ALL nodes as one machine
[07:26] <crizis> most likely you're just going to waste electricity, tbh :P but good for learning
[07:26] <ButtDog> I just don't want to SSH into each one and manage them independently
[07:26] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: if the dd command did not produce any output, that means it succeeded
[07:26] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, Thats a great idea
[07:27] <e11bits> digitalunity: I had absolutely no problem on 12.04 . These came with 12.10
[07:27] <fairuz> panzersajt: Iirc, you need to dd to a partition such as /dev/sde1
[07:27] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt, Thank you!
[07:27] <ButtDog> crizis: I agree 100%, I'm really curious to see how clustering works.
[07:27] <d1rkp1tt> Lemhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/EasyUbuntuClustering/UbuntuKerrighedClusterGuide
[07:27] <crizis> ButtDog, for starters you might wanna start with https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/drbd.html for distributed filesystem
[07:28] <panzersajt> fairuz, kushal_kumaran It is a complete image with partition table and files. It runs but showa that 0 written bytes.
[07:28] <svm_invictvs> How does one install jetty8 on Unbuntu server?
[07:28] <svm_invictvs> I'm only able ot install jetty 6
[07:28] <crizis> ButtDog, https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/ubuntucloud.html also for openstack stuff
[07:28] <e11bits> digitalunity: Now there is no transparency with dash in unity, a crippled animation on window minimize and some strange artefacts while entering passwords
[07:28] <fairuz> panzersajt: But maybe I'm wrong. Already forgot how I did this in the past.
[07:28] <crizis> ButtDog, in general, just look at server documentation - it's pretty straightforward
[07:28] <majnoon> doing a wubi install on sister's desktop
[07:29] <d1rkp1tt> http://www.squidoo.com/linux-clustering
[07:29] <majnoon> unity not so great on desktop but on this netbook it PERFECT
[07:29] <ButtDog> whoah, a lot to sink in
[07:30] <majnoon> !ot
[07:30] <crizis> majnoon, what makes unity any different on a laptop than on a desktop?
[07:30] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: any errors in dmesg or /var/log/syslog?  I assume /dev/sde is a usb thumb drive.  Do you have a different one you could try it on?
[07:30] <majnoon> crizis, it netbook saller screen
[07:30] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, http://www.stevekelly.eu/cluster.shtml
[07:31] <majnoon> *smaller
[07:31] <crizis> majnoon, i think unity is _worse_ on netbooks as it wastes so much screen estate, but great on desktops ;)
[07:31] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt, thanks for that last one
[07:31] <d1rkp1tt> http://byobu.info/wiki/Building_a_simple_Beowulf_Like_Cluster_with_Ubuntu
[07:31] <majnoon> plus can pin programs i use more often in netbook
[07:31] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: failing that, run sudo strace -o dd.log dd if=.... to generate a log of every system call that the dd command makes.  That will be a start.
[07:31] <d1rkp1tt> That one looks promising
[07:32] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt, have you heard of anyone doing this before?
[07:32] <majnoon> crizis,most of time on desktop i basically have *buntu
[07:32] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, We did this at my old work with a bunch of old servers... it worked fantastic... but they were really old
[07:32] <doomlord> is it possible to create a startup disk on one partition of a usb stick. desired state: usb stick with a bootable linux install, and a sepearte parttion for data. I'd already used gparted to make 2 such partitions..but "startup disk creator " is asking me to format it again
[07:33] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, Also, lots of people do it... some recent puclished ones are.. .large PS3 cluster, and RasberryPi cluster
[07:33] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt, wow, I'd love to hear more about. How old? what where the specs?
[07:33] <majnoon> ALMOST equiv of doing apt-get install *
[07:33] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt, I've heard of ps2/ps3 clusers also
[07:33] <d1rkp1tt> They were ancient.. this was 6 years ago
[07:33] <gabkdlly> doomlord, I believe you can just make the whole stick one partition, and then just keep your own data in a seperate folder
[07:34] <ButtDog> d1rkp1tt, do you mind if I PM you?
[07:34] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/12/09/12/145256/university-team-builds-lego-and-raspberry-pi-cluster
[07:34] <majnoon> on desktop i usually use kde or blackbox
[07:34] <d1rkp1tt> ButtDog, Check that out
[07:34] <Jimster480-Lapto> hi noobs
[07:35] <doomlord> ideally i wanted to be able to leave the 'data' partition alone, and overwrite the 'boot' part. (I can see of course that if i wanted to update the installer i could just copy the data off and put it back)
[07:35] <gabkdlly> doomlord, it should not disturb any install process as long as you do not muck around in any of the installers files or folders
[07:35] <panzersajt> kushal_kumaran, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299481/ It a freshly formatted SD card.
[07:36] <nydel> i wanna propose inclusion of cinnamon window manager with ubuntu next release -- where can i do that?
[07:36] <the_dark_knight> Hi, How do I write a cronjob which will allways run. Even if it gets failed it will restart. suppose there is a service like a gearman worker, it should always be running. if it gets aborted it should restart. How do I write such cron?
[07:36] <crizis> nydel, get it packaged to debian
[07:36] <nydel> i mean it's /so/ superior to unity & or gnome... i just can't even imagine using ubuntu without cinnamon anymore
[07:36] <doomlord> perhaps i can install onto another usb stick , and copy the bootable files onto the partitioned stick. (i've several smaller, and one very large stick.)
[07:36] <crizis> (and cinnamon sucks)
[07:37] <nydel> crizis: hey hey now :) why do you say that?
[07:37] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: did you accidentally do a dd with your .img file as of?  check the file size with a ls -l
[07:37] <crizis> no hud, crappy oldschool taskbar, i don't see what's superior in that
[07:37] <Jordan_U> nydel: Either in a bug report / feature request or at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/ although for either please check first to confirm that such a request hasn't already been filed.
[07:38] <nydel> Jordan_U: thank you, that's very helpful.
[07:38] <nydel> crizis: i wasn't quite sure what you mean by "get it packaged to debian"
[07:38] <Jordan_U> nydel: You're welcome.
[07:38] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: ref. line 71 in the strace output.  dd tried to read from the file but got 0 bytes.  your .img file might have got truncated at some point.
[07:39] <crizis> nydel, ubuntu gets synced from debian on each release
[07:39] <the_dark_knight> hey guys please help.
[07:39] <panzersajt> kushal_kumaran, yes sorry for bothering you
[07:39] <panzersajt> kushal_kumaran, :(
[07:39] <nydel> crizis: so if cinnamon were included in debian most recent, it would be available in the ubuntu ppa?
[07:39] <crizis> yes
[07:39] <nydel> the_dark_knight: please ask for help, i'm happy to help
[07:39] <nydel> the_dark_knight: i mean, could you ask a specific question?
[07:40] <the_dark_knight> Hi, How do I write a cronjob which will allways run. Even if it gets failed it will restart. suppose there is a service like a gearman worker, it should always be running. if it gets aborted it should restart. How do I write such cron?
[07:40] <nydel> crizis: what is your window manager of choice?
[07:40] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: it's no trouble.  this happens to everyone at some point or other.
[07:40] <panzersajt> kushal_kumaran, can you help me with ubuntu 12.10 notification area? I would like to add some applications to it (skye, xchat)
[07:40] <nydel> the_dark_knight: could you tell me exactly what you're trying to do like clockwork? & when/why it fails etc?
[07:40] <crizis> unity
[07:41] <gabkdlly> doomlord, I believe that when you make a bootable stick, it sets some special bytes somewhere, so just moving all the files from a bootable stick won't work. But I could be wrong.
[07:41] <nydel> the_dark_knight: immediately i think that we should try writing the command into a script that handles possibilities of failure by exporting the command output to a log then checking it.
[07:41] <nydel> the_dark_knight: do you follow that? tell me more about the cronjob.
[07:42] <Jordan_U> panzersajt: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l", also be very careful with dd. One small mistake and you could lose all the data on your hard drive.
[07:42] <NGRhodes> gabkdlly, doomlord, also writes a boot record
[07:42] <nydel> crizis: you don't have a lot of problems with compiz?
[07:42] <crizis> none
[07:42] <panzersajt> Jordan_U, thnaks but already solved :)
[07:42] <the_dark_knight> nydel: do you know gearman?
[07:44] <jonk> hello
[07:44] <nydel> the_dark_knight: no, let me look it up
[07:45] <the_dark_knight> nydel: look for gearman workers specifically. it's really good
[07:47] <the_dark_knight> nydel: suppose my gearman worker is a python program. I want this program to run always. for some reason if it stops, because the gearman daemon stops, it should restart; its really important that it should run indefinitely. shoud I put it in /etc/init.d? what should I do?
[07:48] <nydel> the_dark_knight: i need to restart but i'm really interested in this, i'll be back in 5 minutes or fewer. i have a few ideas involving multiple bash scripts.
[07:48] <panzersajt> I would like to add some applications to notification area in Ubuntu 12.10 I have tryed editing with dconf but still nothing.
[07:48] <Kartagis> how can I update the path `which` uses? I already exported $PATH with the new value
[07:49] <foobArrr> I have problems with distorted sound and echo with vlc. Often sound is only distorted for the first few seconds or a minute of a file, then sound is normal. When I skip to the next song/video, sound is distorted again. Also volume levels are strange: some videos are loud, some are quiet, in mplayer they have similar volume. I tried recording the distortions with Sound Recorder, but I can't get that to work.
[07:49] <Jordan_U> Kartagis: What makes you think that it needs "updating"?
[07:50] <rinzler> does anyone have any experience with wiican? I am trying to create a custom mapping, but it won't allow me to save it...
[07:50] <kushal_kumaran> panzersajt: I believe just running the relevant application (skype/xchat) will make the notification area icon show up, if the application itself supports this.  You cannot explicitly add stuff there.
[07:50] <Kartagis> Jordan_U: which: no drush in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
[07:50] <jonk> I'd like to use boot-repair from "Ubuntu Secure Remix"  but I have an error saying : "Encrypted partition detected. Please retry after opening it..." Yes my partitions is encrypted but I opened it (with cryptsetup)  before launching boot-repair. So do you know what's going on ?
[07:50] <Jordan_U> Kartagis: What is the output of "echo $PATH"?
[07:51] <Kartagis> Jordan_U: echo $PATH ---> /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin/drush
[07:51] <lyra> Hi, when I try to upgrade to quantal I get
[07:51] <lyra> An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
[07:52] <ahmad> yay shared folder set up finished :)
[07:52] <lyra> E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[07:52] <Kartagis> ahmad: smb share?
[07:52] <Jordan_U> Kartagis: Only directories go in $PATH, I assume that /usr/local/bin/drush is not a directory.
[07:52] <Kartagis> Jordan_U: it is
[07:53] <ahmad> Kartagis, shared folder for virtual box from host to vm
[07:53] <ahmad> lyra try sudo apt-get -y autoremove autoclean clean
[07:53] <ahmad> ops thats 3 commands
[07:53] <the_dark_knight> what happens when I put some bin in /etc/init.d
[07:54] <Jordan_U> Kartagis: What is the output of "lsb_release -d"?
[07:54] <the_dark_knight> how do i restart some service even if it gets failed? using cron
[07:54] <ahmad> sudo apt-get autoremove
[07:54] <ahmad> sudo apt-get autoclean
[07:54] <ahmad> sudo apt-get clean
[07:55] <ahmad> then do update
[07:55] <lyra> ahmad: I did that, still says the same
[07:55] <GreekFreak> Hi all
[07:55] <lyra> I'm wondering if I should just run dist-upgrade anyway, it changed all the repos in sources.list from precise to quantal already
[07:56] <ahmad> wierd :/ hopefully someone else can help
[07:56] <majnoon> is there a way to tell wether you have 32 or 64 bit ubuntu ?? (preferably commandline)
[07:56] <crizis> majnoon, uname -a
[07:56] <MaxMuts> hey
[07:57] <GreekFreak> Does anyone here know anything about Ubuntu for Android? Is it out yet, or still being tested? And most importantly, will we be able to install it ourselves, or only purchase Canonical phones?
[07:57] <crizis> GreekFreak, it'll very likely be OEM-only product
[07:57] <crizis> unfortunately :(
[07:58] <majnoon> from what i read you need dock thingy to run it right
[07:58] <crizis> and, rooted phone at minimum
[07:58] <crizis> guess someone will hack it for cyanogenmod or somesuch sooner or later, whenever it gets released..
[07:59] <GreekFreak> OEM as in from Samsung, or OEM from Canonical?
[07:59] <GreekFreak> crizis ^
[08:00] <crizis> hard to say, there's practially no useful information released about it
[08:00] <nydel> the_dark_knight: i'm returned
[08:00] <GreekFreak> crizis, which is why I asked here haha I've heard Canonical guys hang out here sometimes
[08:00] <GreekFreak> thanks man
[08:00] <jonk> I'd like to use boot-repair from "Ubuntu Secure Remix"  but I have an error saying : "Encrypted partition detected. Please retry after opening it..." Yes my partitions is encrypted but I opened it (with cryptsetup)  before launching boot-repair. So do you know what's going on ?
[08:01] <MrPoopyPants> how do I change the colors on ircii?
[08:01] <MrPoopyPants> this is somewhat distracting
[08:02] <MrPoopyPants> I couldn't get bitchx to run, even though I put it into /usr/bin and gave it the right permissions, it kept saying /usr/bin/bitchx not found
[08:02] <nydel> MrPoopyPants: i just changed my terminal profile
[08:02] <MrPoopyPants> maybe I'm missing something in bash?
[08:02] <nydel> MrPoopyPants: what terminal are you using, gnome-terminal?
[08:03] <MrPoopyPants> no just regular old bash terminal, no gui
[08:04] <MrPoopyPants> Love me or hate me for it, IMHO linux is for servers
[08:04] <yugandhar> Hi Guys, Please tell me How can we monitor apache urls on ubuntu?
[08:06] <Mrokii> Hello. Since upgrading to 12.10 copying files off of my camera is very problematic. Nautilus stops randomly, writing a 0KB-file and then I have to close the progress-window manually and copy again.
[08:06] <Mrokii> Is there something I can do about it? Is that a known bug?
[08:07] <Mrokii> Plus at the moment I can't mount my second internal HD and not any kind of usb-sticks. Whenever I plug one in I get "Adding read ACL for uid 1000 to `/media/myUsername' failed: Operation not supported"
[08:08] <MrPoopyPants> ok so I have a problem. ircii reset my console colors, and while it's pleasant I need to know how to change them back
[08:09] <nydel> MrPoopyPants: #ircii & #irssi -- not to blow you off, you'll just get better help there
[08:09] <MrPoopyPants> I beg for help
[08:09] <nydel> MrPoopyPants: i really think, especially if you're using a gnome-terminal & irssi, you should just change your terminal profile's colors.
[08:09] <nydel> MrPoopyPants: that's what i did with irssi & i got it looking beautiful.
[08:10]  * MrPoopyPants punches himself in the ear repeatedly
[08:10] <fairuz> From Live CD menu, can I drop to CLI?
[08:11] <MrPoopyPants> pretty please with sugar on top/
[08:11] <majnoon> says "almost finished copying files" for last 10 minutes
[08:11] <MrPoopyPants> meh
[08:11] <Jordan_U> fairuz: You can chose "Try without installing" and open GNOME Terminal.
[08:12] <fairuz> jordan-U I want to avoid loading the GUI
[08:12] <Jordan_U> fairuz: You can also use ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a tty.
[08:12] <Jordan_U> fairuz: Why?
[08:12] <fairuz> the virtual terminal is available already when the live cd menu comes out?
[08:12] <nydel> MrPoopyPants: are you not listening
[08:12] <Jordan_U> fairuz: To which menu are you reffering?
[08:13] <majnoon> there used to be a way to get system notices on ctrl+alt+f12
[08:13] <fairuz> Jordan_U: Live CD menu.
[08:13] <undoredoo> Hi! I'm loosing my #ubuntu-channel virginity today, so be gentle with me. ;) I'm having a problem with my ethernet adapter (Intel 82579LM). It needs to be installed and/or modprobed on every start up in order to work properly. Quite disturbing. Is there a way to make the install permanent? I'm running on 12.04. Thanks!
[08:14] <fairuz> The menu where you choose to Try Ubuntu or install Ubuntu.
[08:14] <Jordan_U> fairuz: I'm going to assume that you're talking about the boot menu, in which case you can boot into single user mode, but that may not be what you want. Why do you not want a GUI?  Just try to take some data from the HDD
[08:16] <Jordan_U> fairuz: At the syslinux boot menu you can add the kernel parameter "single" to boot into single user mode.
[08:16] <majnoon> aptdaemon like apt-get ?
[08:16] <majnoon> in general ?
[08:17] <redi> I have a weird problem with Evolution now that I upgraded to 12.10 -- attachments seem to be missing from e-mails
[08:17] <fairuz> Jordan_U: syslinux boot menu == Live CD menu?
[08:17] <redi> I can see the attachment icon in the e-mail view but when I open the e-mail, the attachment bar or whatever it's called isn't there
[08:18] <Eagleman> How do i install php 5.2.0 on ubuntu?
[08:18] <Jordan_U> fairuz: There are multiple menus in the LiveCD, two of which have options for "Try Ubuntu" vs "Install Ubuntu", the second of which is displayed after the GUI has loaded so I assume you're talking about the first, which is the syslinux boot menu. Saying just "LiveCD menu" is not enough.
[08:19] <fairuz> Jordan_U: I mean the first menu. Sorry.
[08:19] <fairuz> What is single user mode btw?
[08:20] <Jordan_U> fairuz: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_user_mode
[08:20] <Ex0deus> anyone recommend a good cms for a bussiness style site?
[08:21] <ahmad> drupal 7
[08:21] <nydel> Ex0deus: "BlogWiki" is pretty interesting & versatile
[08:21] <jay_> the application xchat-gnome has closed unexpectedly (often)
[08:22] <nydel> Ex0deus: i run it on my iPhone's lighttpd & have loved its simplicity & potential complexity
[08:22] <fairuz> Jordan_U: Ok. So single user mode will not load the GUI?
[08:22] <Jordan_U> fairuz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Changing_the_CD.27s_Default_Boot_Options (though single user mode isn't mentioned there specifically, how to add kernel parameters is, and the kernel parameter you would add would be "single").
[08:22] <Ex0deus> for a business site? nydel
[08:22] <Jordan_U> fairuz: Correct. It also won't load networking and most other services.
[08:22] <fairuz> Jordan_U: Ok thanks
[08:22] <Jordan_U> fairuz: You're welcome.
[08:23] <Ex0deus> well i'm gonna loot into both drupal7 and blogwiki
[08:23] <Ex0deus> look even
[08:23] <Ex0deus> thanks both
[08:23] <coolroot> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1299064/ <--- pls help i'm using ubuntu 10.04 32bit here thanx
[08:24] <crizis> coolroot, start software sources and disable that ppa..
[08:25] <nydel> Ex0deus: yes i think so. it can be turned into whatever you like.
[08:25] <nydel> Ex0deus: what manner of business are you doing? if it's software planning or communication-based like that, BlogWiki is wonderful
[08:25] <nydel> Ex0deus: how complicated is the content you need to manage?
[08:26] <nydel> Ex0deus: & how open-eyed are your front-end users?

[08:27] <magic_al> hey all, can anyone help me? i have installed ubuntu 12.10 on my new lenovo thinkpad. but the card reader wont work. what can i do or where can i look for a solution?
[08:30] <aali83> damn can't believe my name is so popular had to register this one instead > <
[08:31] <nydel> the_dark_knight: did you solve your scheduled task problem?
[08:33] <wkhan113> hello, does anyone know what that screen when you boot up and the ubuntu logo with a dotted progress bar is displayed is called?
[08:35] <crizis> wkhan113, plymouth is the software, iirc
[08:36] <majnoon> is there a way can get the boot messages back ??
[08:36] <majnoon> no know what all it means but like WATCHING it
[08:38] <wkhan113> crizis: thanks, how do I change that loading screen to another picture for example
[08:39] <rigo> hey
[08:39] <rigo> can you tell me a ftp client with "TUI" what not midnight commander is?
[08:40] <mickepaprika> i have the problem that my screen freezes for about 1 second every 30 secs... it seems to just be the screen (and possibly input as well, difficult to verify), but not the whole system as the sound is still working, anyone who has the time to help me debug this?
[08:40] <magic_al> hey all, can anyone help me? i have installed ubuntu 12.10 on my new lenovo thinkpad. but the card reader wont work. what can i do or where can i look for a solution?
[08:42] <batidohacendado> hi
[08:43] <batidohacendado> from android
[08:44] <wariat> may i ask if there is any big diference between apt-get and coworkers and aptitude to install uninstall stuff in ubuntu if i'm using commandline only? I mean is aptitude making anything more? maybe better? I understand that apt is the default and first software manager in debian/ubuntu so it is only one who is working 100% correct. is it?
[08:44] <Mrokii> magic_al: I've experienced the same problem. I get the error message "Adding read ACL for uid 1000 to `/media/myUsername' failed: Operation not supported". In my case it's a memory card from a camera and I found out that I can still mount the camera directly.
[08:45] <samurai2> Hi, how do you send a command to a screen session? thanks
[08:45] <magic_al> Mrokii, in my case i not even get a error msg. just nothing happens when i put my card into the device
[08:46] <samurai2> I tried using session -S session_name -X stuff 'echo a', but it only print out the echo a without running it
[08:46] <rigo> any idea?
[08:46] <Mrokii> Damn. There is definitely a problem with mounting USB devices in 12.10.
[08:46] <zalgor> Hi. I am using pam_mkhome in common-session. It works fine (lightdmlogin, su, sudo...) But a sshd-login does not create a home automatically, also the common-session is included.It also fails, if I write "session    required    pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/ umask=0077" directly into the pam.d/sshd. any ideas?
[08:49] <chk> guten morgen
[08:49] <chk> ich wollte ein skript schreiben das folgendes tun soll:

[08:50] <Mrokii> chk: wrong language :)
[08:50] <chk> ok sorry ;)
[08:50] <Noskcaj> chk: please try to use english
[08:50] <Mrokii> if you want to use German, better go to #ubuntu-de
[08:51] <samurai2> はいそうです
[08:51] <Noskcaj> samuria2: please use english
[08:52] <chk> i need a script with the function: if ouput from am programm xxx the do ..., else ...
[08:52] <Mrokii> omg, copying stuff off of a camera has really become a pita with 12.10, with random stopping. Isn't there a solution or is that a known bug?
[08:52] <konza> chk, grep for it or check the exit status(preferred method)..
[08:53] <cnf> what irc client do you guys suggest?
[08:54] <konza> cnf, I use Xchat
[08:54] <Kartagis> I'm using the clementine player, and it won't restore to a full screen. any ideas?

[08:54] <cnf> haha, thanks :P
[08:54] <cnf> and unity
[08:54] <cnf> :(
[08:55] <Eagleman> Why am i downloading files on a php website instead of viewing files?
[08:55] <Eagleman> Files get automatcly downloaded
[08:55] <Kartagis> Eagleman: google for AddType
[08:56] <iceroot> Eagleman: because the php interpreter on apache is not running
[08:56] <iceroot> Eagleman: if apache is unable to interpret the php files they are handled as unkown and because of that your browser is trying to download them
[08:56] <Eagleman> Sop addtype?
[08:56] <Eagleman> So
[08:57] <iceroot> Eagleman: you installed the php extension for apache?
[08:57] <Eagleman> yes
[08:57] <brontosaurusrex> cnf: chatzilla, it has this amazing CTRL ++ and CTRL + - feature (for font size)
[08:57] <Kartagis> Eagleman: yes, AddType
[08:57] <Eagleman> Well i think i did
[08:58] <iceroot> Eagleman: on ubuntu? normally the install-scripts are enabling php by default, you uses apache and php from the repos?
[08:58] <Eagleman> I had a lot of trouble installing php 5.2
[08:58] <iceroot> Eagleman: sudo apt-get install php5
[08:58] <Eagleman> i need php 5.2
[08:59] <iceroot> Eagleman: then please see #httpd we only support php from the repos, manual installations are not supported (and not good)
[08:59] <konza> Eagleman, you need to install the apache-php module also
[09:00] <Eagleman> also did that
[09:00] <Eagleman> apt-get install -t libapache2-mod-php5
[09:01] <llutz> Eagleman: "sudo a2enmod php5"
[09:02] <Eagleman> ./usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:02] <Eagleman> SO i need to get the .so file from somewhere
[09:02] <Eagleman> It was not placed there
[09:02] <pietr> What has happened to the 32-bit libs that were present in previous versions of ubuntu through ia32-libs? Can I install 32-bit libraries on my 64-bit system? E.g. libgtk2.0-dev:i386 on my 64-bit system where libgtk2.0-dev (64-bit) is already installed?
[09:02] <llutz> Eagleman: sudo apt-get install --reinstall libapache2-mod-php5
[09:03] <Eagleman> E: Broken packages
[09:04] <Eagleman> ow i am even on debian...
[09:04] <Eagleman> libapache2-mod-php5 : Depends: php5-common (= 5.3.3-7+squeeze14) but 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.10 is to be installed
[09:04] <llutz>  #debian then Eagleman
[09:04] <moza> Hello, i currently have 10.04 LTS, is it possible to upgrade to 12.04 LTS and keep Gnome (and hopefully most of my current installed things)?
[09:04] <Eagleman> sorry
[09:04] <tarelerulz> Is  12.04 supported  any more?   I rebooted and compiz isn't working (I can launch the Classic Gnome desktop tho)
[09:11] <redi> syslog is saying compiz.desktop is respawning too quickly
[09:11] <redi> I can basicly reach the desktop but compiz won't launch and I have no idea how to relaunch it when I can't access launcher or terminal
[09:11] <lesshaste> what does the s in drwxr-sr-x mean?
[09:11] <brontosaurusrex> majnoon: i think thats more debian, you should just use apt-get upgrade on ubuntu (but correct me if iam wrong)
[09:12] <freijon> redi: you ahve no window manager now? or why can't you access the terminal?
[09:12] <freijon> can you start a file browser?
[09:12] <kos_> salve
[09:12] <redi> freijon: no window manager indeed
[09:13] <freijon> can you start nautilus?
[09:13] <redi> I have only a few image icons on my desktop
[09:13] <kos_> ho installato Ubuntu 12.10 desktop (64bit), mi sono accorto che non è più possibile formattare i pendrive da unity (perchè non c'è più Formatta nel menù), siccome non mi piace moltissimo l'utility disk, posso reintegrare la voce formatta sul menù in unity come accadeva in ubuntu 12.04? grazie anticipatamente della risposta
[09:13] <redi> how would I do that?
[09:13] <freijon> redi: open a folder on your desktop
[09:13] <redi> I'll create new folder and open it!
[09:13] <redi> sec
[09:14] <redi> freijon: it opens halfway outside the screen
[09:15] <redi> anyway, then what?
[09:15] <freijon> redi: try to navigate to /usr/bin/ and doubleclick "gnome-terminal"
[09:15] <redi> ok
[09:15] <kos_> someone can help me? i've installed Ubuntu 12.10 64bit on my desktop PC and i cant use the Format utility from unity like in ubuntu 12.04. can i do something to solve this problem?
[09:15] <redi> I have terminal open in another TTY already tho
[09:15] <redi> thats how I'm in IRC :P
[09:16] <freijon> I thought you can't open the terminal? :P
[09:16] <redi> not from GUI
[09:16] <redi> I'm on CLI in TTY1 in IRC
[09:16] <redi> and have TTY 2 open for checking syslog :P
[09:17] <freijon> yeah, but you need the gnome-terminal to restart compiz
[09:17] <redi> yep, true
[09:17] <redi> testing
[09:17] <freijon> at least thats how I'd do it
[09:17] <majnoon> ok installing xchat on wubi install
[09:18] <farciarz84> how to upgrade my python 2.5 -> 2.7 on ubuntu 8.04?
[09:18] <redi> freijon: doesn't seem to be working
[09:19] <redi> (i can't see what I type there as it opens outside the screen)
[09:19] <redi> but nothing happends with typing compiz or compiz --replace
[09:19] <freijon> redi: you can't execute gnome-terminal?
[09:20] <redi> I can execute it but it open-s halfway offscreen
[09:20] <redi> anyway, now I tried doubleclicking compiz from usr/lib and the screen flashed
[09:20] <freijon> does it happend every time you log in?
[09:20] <redi> if nothing else, I got the windows inside my viewport now
[09:20] <redi> yes
[09:20] <redi> upgraded to 12.10 last week
[09:20] <redi> third reboot today and bamm
[09:21] <fairuz> kos_ !it
[09:21] <redi> ah
[09:21] <redi> [1]+  Segmentation fault      (core dumped) compiz
[09:22] <freijon> redi: did you install all updates?
[09:22] <redi> yup, apt-get update & upgrade installs nothing now
[09:22] <redi> it worked for a week
[09:22] <redi> is there any meta-package I could uninstall with purge & reinstall
[09:23] <freijon> I'm not sure how the current situation is with unity, but maybe you can use a fallback version: "sudo restart lightdm" from TTY
[09:23] <redi> ah lightdm
[09:23] <redi> thought it was still gdm
[09:23] <redi> anyway, that takes me to loginscreen
[09:24] <redi> and after logging in it's still the same
[09:24] <redi> like I said before, the default session is fubar, I can start a working gnome classic tho
[09:24] <vikash> i am getting 4 shift/reduce option when i am compiling my YACC program..what can i do further
[09:24] <freijon> redi: did you upgrade compiz recently? maybe downgrading would fix it
[09:24] <wols> redi: a new user can log in normally? if so it's your config in your ~
[09:25] <redi> segfault in libcairo of compiz

[09:30] <majnoon_> !ot
[09:30] <blazemore> I don't know how to fix this at all, but I have to do it because this customer isn't being able to send mail, can anyone help a brother out?
[09:30] <redi> freijon: im not sure how to do that
[09:30] <vikash> i am getting 4 shift/reduce option when i am compiling my YACC program..what can i do further
[09:30] <redi> hard to find info when machine is fubar
[09:31] <oscailt> Hi. Was wondering. Do yous have a dev channel?
[09:31] <freijon> redi: easiest way is with Synaptic
[09:31] <Noskcaj> oscailt: great spelling
[09:31] <freijon> or a CLI command which I do not have present :p
[09:31] <vikash> i am getting 4 shift/reduce option when i am compiling my YACC program..what can i do further

I recently pointed the DNS to the server and now I see that It's opening up some wordpress site ... and that is not what I want. I'm trying to find nginx or such to point it correctly but I don't know what I'm looking for because no nginx directory exists
[09:34] <blazemore> jolaren: Is there a wordpress site installed on the server?
[09:34] <jolaren> blazemore: yes, several
[09:34] <blazemore> jolaren: Look in /etc/httpd or /etc/apache

Later, i conected to the office pc, did my job, and turned off the laptop. When i turned it on, i could connect to wifi, skype and deluge worked perfectly but i could not open not even one web page, no matter the browser. It was as if i di
[09:42] <filippos> dnt have internet (but i could chat through skype).. any ideas on how to check what might be workng?
[09:42] <IdleOne> bin_bash: Please stop with the off topic discourse in here and move to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[09:42] <kuuhmuhmu> hey i want you help to set samba as service when start : ubuntu server ; start smbd
[09:43] <filippos> *any ideas on how to check what might be wrong?
[09:44] <cnf> hmm, i have 2 bluetooth icons in my menu...
[09:44] <bin_bash> filippos, did you try logging into the router and checking blocked ports?
[09:44] <kuuhmuhmu> !
[09:44] <kuuhmuhmu> !bot
[09:44] <kuuhmuhmu> !samba service
[09:44] <Valtam> kuuhmuhmu, #ubuntu-server
[09:46] <filippos> bin_bash: i could not connect to the router for some reason.. The router is not mine (so idont know details - also i am not good with these things), but  why would i have blocked ports? i mean, i could connect to the internet perfectly ok, and before restarting the laptop i was on a vpn with the office's pc...
[09:47] <bin_bash> filippos, you just said that you couldn't load webpages
[09:47] <bin_bash> that means port80 was being blocked
[09:48] <angolar> have  someone who speaeks pt
[09:48] <filippos> bin_bash: sorry.. before restarting i had webpages, vpn, eveything.. after restarting laptop i had only skype, torrents, but no webpages etc
[09:49] <DJones> !pt | angolar
[09:49] <bin_bash> filippos, i guess you can't read. Check. For. Blocked. Ports.
[09:50] <angolar> thanks ubottu
[09:51] <filippos> bin_bash: is it possible to connect with torrent client, or skype but not with browser due to closed ports? they use different ports? how can i check that?:)
[09:51] <filippos> bin_bash : is it with the use of nmap?
[09:51] <bin_bash> Yes they all use different ports.
[09:52] <wols> filippos: while it is possible (yes they use different ports. use netstat or htop) it's pretty much never that port 80 for browsers is closed but ports for torrents and skype are open
[09:52] <bin_bash> wols, that's not true. I had that exact problem
[09:53] <wols> bin_bash: and the reasoning for this was?
[09:53] <bin_bash> Blocked ports on the router, wols
[09:53] <filippos> bin_bash: a ok.. thanx.. just in case it is a ports issue, how can i change the settings (open closed ports)? now i am at the office, so idont have access to my homes laptop, so i will do these things later today... Also, could this be a result of the cisco client(plus the patches) that i installed?
[09:53] <wols> and this someone blocked them why?
[09:54] <bin_bash> filippos, you have to login to the router, either via telnet, ssh, or the web interface and check to make sure everything is squared away, and yes it could be the result of that
[09:54] <bin_bash> wols, it wasn't done purposely
[09:54] <filippos> or could it just be a provider issue? unfortunately, i dont have another machine back home to check if it was an machine issue or a network issue..
[09:55] <bin_bash> filippos, is it a modem/router combo
[09:55] <filippos> bin_bash: just router
[09:56] <bin_bash> filippos, plug directly into the modem and see if you can connect to webpages etc
[09:58] <filippos> bin_bash: also, i suppose that the fact that i cant ping any ip could be due to the same issue (port closed)? :)
[09:58] <bin_bash> could be that ping is blocked
[09:58] <bin_bash> like I said
[09:58] <bin_bash> try directly from the router
[09:58] <bin_bash> if it doesnt work
[09:59] <bin_bash> then let me know
[09:59] <FloodBot1> bin_bash: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:59] <filippos> bin_bash: thanx a lot for your help... i ll give it a try!!!
[09:59] <bin_bash> filippos, i meant directly from the modem
[09:59] <bin_bash> via ethernet
[10:01] <DocBarretta> Hello!
[10:01] <bin_bash> h
[10:02] <kuuhmuhmu> hey i want you help to set samba as service when start : ubuntu server ; start smbd
[10:02] <DocBarretta> Wondering if anyone can help me... i am quite new to linux and am having trouble in terminal
[10:02] <wols> DocBarretta: state your actual problem
[10:03] <bin_bash> !help
[10:04] <Lachezar> I have no Spell Check in LibreOffice. LibreOffice has Hunspell module, but Bulgarian has Aspell dictionary only.
[10:04] <bin_bash> Lachezar, did you consider installing an English dictionary?
[10:04] <bin_bash> !next
[10:04] <cnf> hmm, now evolution keeps crashing
[10:05] <bin_bash> cnf, did you try running it from the command line?
[10:05] <Lachezar> bin_bash: why would I need English dictionary? I need Bulgarian dictionary?
[10:05] <cnf> not yet
[10:05] <bin_bash> Lachezar, did you try installing a Bulgarian one then?
[10:05] <DocBarretta> I am trying to build ChromiumOS onto my netbook and seem to be working in circles. I get to the step where I need to download the sourcecode onto my netbook and each time, I get an error telling me "repo" is not a valid command when it was supposed to be installed in step 2 and from what I can see, it was done so sucessfully
[10:05] <bin_bash> cnf, we can't help if we don't know the error message
[10:06] <Lachezar> bin_bash: There is only Aspell Bulgarian dictionary, Hunspell dictionary is not available.
[10:06] <majnoon> ok got question :: if put reg nvidia drivers in (nonfree) it will need reboot right ?
[10:06] <bin_bash> Lachezar, write one :)
[10:06] <bin_bash> DocBarretta, repo is not a recognized command.
[10:06] <Lachezar> bin_bash: Not funny at all.
[10:06] <bin_bash> Lachezar, if hunspell doesn't have a Bulgarian dictionary there's nothing we can do about it
[10:06] <cnf> bin_bash,  doesn't seem to crash when i run it from cli though :P
[10:07] <bin_bash> cnf, how else are you running it
[10:07] <bin_bash> cnf, when you run it from the GUI what command is being executed
[10:07] <Lachezar> bin_bash: Hmmm... That's not how I see things: I *USED* to have spell check...  A bot... Damn.
[10:08] <bin_bash> cnf, look in the config file.
[10:08] <bin_bash> Lachezar, I'm not a bot
[10:08] <kuuhmuhmu> hey i want you help to set samba as service when start : ubuntu server ; start smbd
[10:08] <bin_bash> !samba kuuhmuhmu
[10:08] <wols> it should start from the time you installed it
[10:08] <Lachezar> bin_bash: You certainly behave like one... Asking the same quesiton over and over again.
[10:08] <cnf> "the" config file?
[10:09] <cnf> sorry, i'm not used to X related stuff
[10:09] <DocBarretta> cd ${SOURCE_REPO} repo init -u https://git.chromium.org/chromiumos/manifest.git  <- This is the command I was instructed to type but when I do, it says: No command 'repo' found, did you mean:  Command 'rep' from package 'rep' (universe)  Command 'repl' from package 'nmh' (universe)  Command 'repl' from package 'mailutils-mh' (universe) repo: command not found
[10:09] <bin_bash> cnf, whichever config files unity reads from
[10:09] <bluelf> hey guys, I just installed ubuntu 12.10. Touchpad features like scrolling, tapping, etc. are not working what should I do?
[10:09] <bin_bash> !give kuuhmuhmu sambda
[10:09] <bin_bash> !give kuuhmuhmu samba
[10:09] <bin_bash> wow really
[10:09] <bin_bash> !give samba kuuhmuhmu
[10:09] <Lachezar> DocBarretta: repo is a Google tool. Let me check where you can get it.
[10:10] <cnf> bin_bash,  that i do not know :P
[10:10] <bin_bash> Lachezar, I only asked the same question thrice because it's thus been unanswered
[10:10] <gab_> echo
[10:10] <vivek_> Hi everyone, I'm having some trouble on my new Ubuntu 12.04.1 installation. Can someone please help me out.
[10:10] <konza> vivek_, whats your problem
[10:10] <devnill> whats the problem vivek_
[10:11] <bin_bash> !ask vivek_
[10:11] <Lachezar> DocBarretta: https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo
 , I have gotten it from www.chromium.org and downloaded it using Terminal in Root. It was one of my first steps. So this shouldn't be happening... I don't know where I went wrong! I followed every step exactly
[10:11] <Lachezar> bin_bash: At what point 'There is NO such package' is not an answer?
[10:11] <bluelf> hey guys, I just installed ubuntu 12.10. Touchpad features like scrolling, tapping, etc. are not working what should I do?
[10:11] <bin_bash> DocBarretta, just install chrome
[10:11] <bin_bash> Lachezar, if there is no such package, then how is it you had it before? You're not being concise.
[10:12] <Lachezar> bin_bash: I've had spell-check, I do not know what package provided it, I am not sure it was Hunspell.
[10:12] <vivek_> I get artefacts on fullscreen flash videos and fullscreen opengl applications. I'm using the proprietary driver on an ATI Mobility RadeonHD 4570 card.
[10:13] <bin_bash> Lachezar, you're not paying attention to me: If there is no Bulgarian dictionary for Hunspell, THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.
[10:13] <Lachezar> DocBarretta: You probably need to put repo in the path. 'EXPORT PATH=$PATH:~/bin' and put repo in ~/bin
[10:13] <vmachine> Is Jflow supported on Reth interfaces on SRX 240?
 I am trying to install CromiumOS onto my netbook... I have chrome on all my other devices but thought it would be nice to get my netbook to run ChromiumOS instead of paying the $300 it retails at
[10:13] <bin_bash> DocBarretta, why are you asking about chromiumOS here?
 I will try that
[10:14] <bluelf> hey guys, I just installed ubuntu 12.10. Touchpad features like scrolling, tapping, etc. are not working , can you please help me fix that?
 I have to compile it in Linux and since I am having trouble doing so with Terminal, I thought this would be the logical place to ask for help. I am very new to source coding in Linux.
[10:15] <bjaanes> blueelf, look under System Settings -> Mouse and Touchpad.
[10:15] <bjaanes> bluelf
[10:15] <bluelf> bjaanes, there is no options for scroll etc
 Export command not found
[10:16] <bjaanes> bluelf, huh, there is supposed to be. Two finger scroll or something like that. Its usally default at side scroll (scrolling with the right side of the touchpad)
[10:17] <bjaanes> bluelf, it should look something like this: http://resalxh.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/ubuntu_12-04_alps_touchpad.png
[10:17] <bjaanes> Should I not link stuff like that btw? I need to read over the terms again
[10:18] <vivek_> Does anyone have an answer to the problem I just stated? Pardon me if I'm a little slow at typing.
[10:19] <bjaanes> vivek_, does the free drivers not work?
[10:19] <vivek_> It's too slow.
[10:19] <bluelf> bjaanes,In /proc/bus/input/devices lists my devices as PS/2 Generic Mouse
[10:19] <bjaanes> vivek_, well that is too bad. You might need to check out some other versions of the driver
[10:20] <vivek_> I have already done that. But the problem has persisted for a number of releases now.
[10:20] <bluelf> bjaanes, there is no tab of scrolling
[10:20] <bjaanes> bluelf, Right, it doesnt detect it as a touchpad at all
[10:21] <bjaanes> bluelf, has it worked before?
[10:21] <bluelf> bjaanes, it worked fine on ubuntu 12.10
[10:21] <bluelf> bjaanes, it worked fine on ubuntu 12.04
[10:22] <bin_bash> bluelf, did you do a dist-upgrade or a fresh install?
[10:22] <bluelf> bin_bash, fresh install
[10:22] <bin_bash> Why?
[10:22] <bjaanes> Does that matter?
[10:23] <bin_bash> Yes
[10:23] <bluelf> bin_bash,  my coworker had installed 64 bit last time, it made no sense as I have only 3 gigs of ram. and it had some issues
[10:23] <bin_bash> What issues specifically?
[10:24] <jpds> bluelf: No sense? It is 2012.
[10:24] <bjaanes> There is still no good reason to use 64-bit unless you have at LEAST 4GB (IMHO)
[10:24] <crizis> well, if you have only 3gb ram, it's really no-gain
[10:25] <vivek_> bjaanes, the artefacts were noticed with different versions of fglrx. The problem occurs only in fullscreen espically with opengl apps.
[10:25] <bjaanes> Unless for some special cases ofcourse - but generally speaking
[10:25] <bluelf> crizis, thats what I was told
[10:25] <bin_bash> Does 32bit support multithreading?
[10:25] <crizis> of course? :P
[10:25] <bjaanes> lolwut?
[10:25] <bin_bash> I had a helluva problem with multithreading with 32bit
[10:25] <cfhowlett> bluelf: less than 4 gigs should be 32 bit.
[10:25] <jpds> bjaanes / crizis / bluelf: On the other hand is there a good reason NOT to use 64-bit?
[10:26] <bin_bash> cfhowlett, why? If it's a 64bit arch why not use a 64bit OS?
[10:26] <cfhowlett> bin_bash: I can't speak to arch.  However, all the literature I've read on Ubuntu 64 stipulates a minimum of 64 bit.
[10:26] <crizis> jpds, not really :)
[10:26] <bin_bash> jpds, no. If you're using a 64bit architecture, you should be using a 64bit OS. even if there are programs that only exist for 32bit, you can still use them
[10:26] <bin_bash> cfhowlett, what
[10:26] <jpds> bin_bash: I know that.
[10:27] <bin_bash> jpds, there is literally no reason to use a 32bit OS on a 64bit Arch.
[10:27] <bjaanes> jpds, SOME compability issues (allthough most of those are gone by now). But 64-bit actually uses a little bit more memory
[10:27] <bin_bash> cfhowlett, I don't have any idea what you're saying
[10:27] <crizis> http://www.vistax64.com/general-discussion/120090-why-isnt-64bit-twice-fast-32bit.html lol'd
[10:27] <bjaanes> xD
[10:27] <crizis> oops, not, offtopic chan, sorry
[10:28] <gordonjcp> crizis: heh
[10:28] <cfhowlett> bin_bash: nevermind. I must have sent to the wrong nick.
[10:29] <bin_bash> cfhowlett, no i think you just are confused about what i meant by arch
[10:29] <texaco> Hi everyone
[10:29] <cfhowlett> bin_bash: arch linux?
[10:29] <bin_bash> no.
[10:29] <bin_bash> architecture
[10:29] <cfhowlett> bin_bash: architecture!  *dumb me*
[10:30] <gordonjcp> jpds: good reason for *not* using 64-bit - if you're using NVidia binary drivers, the flash plugin is buggy and gives wonky colours
[10:30] <dr_willis> ive not noticed flash issues on my 64 bit box.
[10:30] <gordonjcp> jpds: it's fixable with a small tweak somewhere though
[10:30] <gordonjcp> dr_willis: using NVidia, with binary drivers?
[10:30] <dr_willis> yes gordonjcp
[10:30] <gordonjcp> dr_willis: hmm
[10:30] <bjaanes> gordonjcp, That cant be for everyone. Probably just some setups ;)
[10:31] <gordonjcp> bjaanes: yeah
[10:31] <gordonjcp> it's probably ridiculously specific to *one* particular NV chipset
[10:31] <gordonjcp> tbh I find 64-bit a fair bit slower than 32-bit
[10:31] <bjaanes> For instance, I cant for the life of me use the binary ATI drivers on my 6870 card - but it works for a lot of people
[10:31] <texaco> Hi, I have a question about printers
[10:31] <texaco> I need to buy one,
[10:31] <dr_willis> my nvidia card is like 2 yrs old now.
[10:32] <texaco> wich one could you recommend me?
[10:32] <bluelf> how can make my touchpad visible to os?
[10:32] <bhavana> how to install drupul
[10:32] <dr_willis> texaco: depends on your needs.. avoid cannon brand...
[10:33] <bjaanes> texaco, i dont have any i know of per se, but you can start by browsing a little here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers
[10:33] <texaco> Thanks
[10:33] <bhavana> using command line
[10:33] <texaco> i'm looking for a multifuntion
[10:33] <texaco> i'll see that page
[10:33] <texaco> thanks
[10:34] <bhavana> hey
[10:34] <bjaanes> bhavana, hey
[10:34] <bhavana> how to install drupal in ubantu???
[10:34] <bjaanes> bhavana, Could you give me some background on what you need? Have to downloaded anything? Do you want to install with apt-get or something?
[10:35] <MACscr> anyone had issues writing to their ubuntu samba shares from their osx mountain lion systems? i just did a reformat and i can connect fine (I have samba setup for guest write access), but when i try to write, it asks for auth info (which seems to be from ML and not smb) and then it says i dont have access
[10:35] <bjaanes> bhavana, are you set up with a LAMP server?
[10:35] <MACscr> there are no errors in the ubuntu samba logs either
[10:35] <bhavana> no how to do it
[10:36] <bjaanes> bhavana, ooook. Just do what it says on this page then https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Drupal
[10:36] <gordonjcp> texaco: second-hand shop, pick up an HP Laserjet 4 or Laserjet 5
[10:36] <bjaanes> Can i suggest google to people? Is that rude? Because there seem to often questions that would take one second to get a really good answer from google
[10:37] <bhavana> yeah thanks
[10:37] <gordonjcp> texaco: you'll need to pick up a drum unit at some stage, and probably sort out the connector for the fuser
[10:37] <cfhowlett> !google|bjaanes
[10:37] <gordonjcp> texaco: it will last you the rest of your life
[10:38] <texaco> thanks gordonjcp, i'll check those
[10:38] <gordonjcp> texaco: they're really old but they're built like Volvo 240s
[10:39] <gordonjcp> texaco: the Gods themselves will print out the information leaflets for Ragnarok on Laserjet 4s
[10:39] <bjaanes> ubottu, Got it! Thanks =) Although i would never just tell people to just google it - could suggest that the answer is easly found on google? After giving an answer? =)
[10:39] <texaco> XD
[10:39] <cfhowlett> gordonjcp: LOL!
[10:39] <bjaanes> righto xD
[10:40] <gordonjcp> texaco: and at the end when the forces of order and chaos have battled to the last, all that will be left of humanity will be a Laserjet 4
[10:40] <gordonjcp> with a spotty drum and an intermittent fuser error
[10:41] <gordonjcp> but basically still working
[10:42] <texaco> thank for your all help
[10:48] <dr_willis> gordonjcp:  i got 2 of them ;-)
[10:52] <blazemore> How can I get Japanese characters to show in my web browser (Google Chrome/Chromium) instead of just squares?
[10:52] <blazemore> "わたしの恋はホッチキス" doesn't display for me, for example
[10:54] <dogweather> blazemore: Usually that'd mean that the font doesn't glyphs for those characters.
[10:54] <blazemore> ttf-takao-mincho perhaps?
[10:54] <gordonjcp> dr_willis: mine got "borrowed" and never given back, by a company I used to work for
[10:54] <dogweather> Have you verified the browser's using a font that does have those?
[10:54] <fommil> I have a 200K PDF which doesn't have any images in it. It's only 4 pages! When I try to shrink it the file actually gets bigger by a few K. I need to get it down below 200K to be able to upload it to a site. Any ideas that are better than this? -> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-tiphowto-reduce-adobe-acrobat-file-size-from-command-line.html btw, it only uses the Palatino and Century Gothic fonts and was generated from Mac

[10:55] <blazemore> dogweather: No, I'm installing the  ttf-takao package and seeing if that works
[10:55] <dogweather> good
[10:55] <dr_willis> i must say my low end $99 wireless brother laser works well in linux.
[10:55] <blazemore> yeah, worked!
[10:55] <dogweather> great

[11:24] <ddssc_> nvm
[11:25] <YOUConsulting> Can I install 2 Different Ubuntu versions using wubi, version 10 & version 12 of ubuntu?
[11:27] <MonkeyDust> YOUConsulting  wubi is only a pseudo-install inside windows, so to say
[11:28] <YOUConsulting> MonkeyDust: so if I execute 2 different wubi version it should work ?
[11:29] <MonkeyDust> YOUConsulting  guess not, havent tried
[11:29] <YOUConsulting> MonkeyDust:  np, I will just overwrite it :)
[11:29] <MonkeyDust> YOUConsulting  and 10.04 and 10.10 are no longer supported
[11:30] <MonkeyDust> 10.04 only for server

[11:38] <rkhshm1> i've noticed a weird issue with 12.04 on my laptop T410. When the laptop is suspended(lid closed) and resumed there are times when the OS dives back into a logout mode and takes me to the initial GNOME login screen. and when i login again i see that all my previous applications will be closed
[11:38] <rkhshm1> has anyone faced a similar issue?
[11:39] <ClitorisErrante> is there some way to hack a wpa without brute force or diccionaries?
[11:39] <jrib> ClitorisErrante: we don't discuss that in this channel

[11:43] <rkhshm1> this is not a problem actually unless I'm running some VMware instances..
[11:44] <rkhshm1> that would be dangerous for me
[11:44] <ElixirVitae> Does having another window manager effect the performance?
[11:44] <dr_willis> ElixirVitae: another installed but not in use?  no....
[11:44] <ElixirVitae> Also, while I am at it, is there any way to increase performance other than changing window manager(s)?
[11:45] <theadmin> ElixirVitae: Well you can't use two of them at the same time so no, it won't really affect anything
[11:45] <dr_willis> depends on your specs and what tou are doing ElixirVitae
[11:45] <theadmin> ElixirVitae: Also your understanding of "window manager" seems to be wrong. Do you mean things like KDE, GNOME, etc? Those are desktop environments. Window managers are just thing which draw window borders (unless we're talking about xmonad or something)
[11:46] <ElixirVitae> The thing is, dr_willis, I suspect having another window manager and its many dependencies might effect by the way of said dependencies, is it so?
[11:46] <dr_willis> ElixirVitae: if its not running. its just using hd space.
[11:46] <ElixirVitae> oh, yes, I do mean desktop environments WITH window managers, you can add file manager to the equation as well...
[11:47] <theadmin> ElixirVitae: I suggest using Xfce if you're looking for a lightweight one.
[11:47] <ElixirVitae> What I do want to do is, to have ubuntu+unity and have another option, like that is crunchbangs'.
[11:48] <dr_willis> i imagine a single instance of firefox going is using more resources then the rest if the desktop...
[11:48] <cnf> how do i get unity to change my wallpaper every 5 minutes?
[11:48] <theadmin> ElixirVitae: Oh, just apt-get install openbox then, it has nearly none dependencies
[11:48] <ElixirVitae> This way, when I use for usual task I would use unity with its ease-of-use and pretty and polished interface
[11:48] <dr_willis> ElixirVitae: install a different deskt9o. select it at login screen
[11:48] <stimpie> after upgrading to 12.10 I have two online account items in my settings. Does anyone know how to get rid of this?
[11:49] <ElixirVitae> I have, gnome, ubuntu, xfce and openbox right now, and trying out what I like/suits to the task at hand
[11:49] <dr_willis> lubunru is avbout as light of a desktop as you can get
[11:49] <Kveras> Hi. I need some advise on how to properly report a bug that has been following me for a good while now. It's probably not a bug that should be posted to the Ubuntu package, but rather upstream, since the problem is present both in Ubuntu, Arch and any other recent distribution that I have tried so far. The help I need is to figure out what package and what upstream project I should report to. The problem is that when dual booting Linux and Win 7
[11:49] <Kveras> there are severe mouse glitches in Linux. The problem is described in greater detail here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/145175/after-reboot-from-windows-mouse-click-does-not-work-properly . The problem is still present in 12.10. Can anyone have a look and help me figuring out where this bug should be posted?
[11:49] <dr_willis> just running a wm. is lighter still.
[11:49] <ASHER1> :( why ftp no work dammn
[11:49] <ElixirVitae> Is lubuntu lighter than openbox?
[11:50] <jrib> Kveras: #ubuntu-bugs can help you with that
[11:50] <dr_willis> just running a wm. is lighter still..........
[11:50] <theadmin> ElixirVitae: Well LXDE uses openbox as a window manager...
[11:50] <ElixirVitae> Like I do in many games, after learning my way around, I tend to want to start over with now enlightened self.
[11:50] <theadmin> ElixirVitae: So that's not really a comparison you can make. Just openbox would still be lighter.
[11:50] <Kveras> jrib, no answer there for a while, the channel seems a bit inactive.
[11:51] <wols> ElixirVitae: openbox is "lighter" but I doubt it makes much difference. it's not just the DE which makes xubuntu and lubuntu easier to use for old machines
[11:51] <jrib> Kveras: it's not as active as this one, best to be patient
[11:52] <ElixirVitae> Is it plausible to format and start over ubuntu from scratch?
[11:52] <dr_willis> you can always delete your partitions....
[11:52] <ElixirVitae> Or just installing lubuntu and getting unity on top of that as a seperate DE?
[11:52] <jrib> Kveras: I'd see if it happens with different hardware
[11:53] <dr_willis> you can have a dozen wms installed if you wanted...
[11:54] <ElixirVitae> Hmm.
[11:54] <dr_willis> install lubuntu-desktop package ElixirVitae
[11:54] <ElixirVitae> Am I just overthinking it, supposing changing to a lightweight DE would benefit more?
[11:54] <ElixirVitae> When I boot from liveCD, it takes ~20 seconds to boot
[11:55] <dr_willis> depends on your specs ElixirVitae
[11:55] <dr_willis> i boot to unity in 10sec...
[11:55] <ElixirVitae> But now it in boots nearly twice that, of course given I have many programs at startup...
[11:56] <ElixirVitae> 10 secs sounds nice~
[11:56] <dr_willis> 30 sec boot time dont matter when i gor 30 days+ of uptime
[11:58] <ElixirVitae> Hmm, I have lubuntu-desktop and lubuntu-core in center, I suppose desktop comes with many semi-native programs, no?
[11:58] <ElixirVitae> Is it plausible to have 30+ days uptime with something that is not used as a server?
[11:59] <jrib> ElixirVitae: sure, why not
[12:00] <ElixirVitae> As I saw it it takes less than 20 days for an update to come that necessitates booting.
[12:00] <Kveras> jrib, yes it's probably hardware specific since the two installations should be completely separate from each other. does that mean that I should post a bug towards the motherboard manufacturer?
[12:00] <jrib> Kveras: hmm, I meant just trying a different mouse but that's an interesting theory

[12:18] <the_dark_knight> Hi, I have a question. I have a php script - client.php . How do I execute it 1000 times. Is there any way like curl / benchmarking. I don't want to create a shell script which will run it a number of times. Is there some tool to do it?
[12:18] <muelli> the_dark_knight: for i in $(seq 1 1000); do foo; done
[12:18] <mmm4m5m> Hi all. Anyone with webcamstudio around? Thanks a lot in advance!!
[12:18] <wols> how does curl benchmark? you need to be more specific
[12:19] <wols> mmm4m5m: ask your real question
[12:20] <magic_al> i have a prob with my internal card reader of my new thinkpad. if i insert a card nothing happens. what can i do?
[12:20] <zetheroo> a friend using Ubuntu 12.04 has found today that the touchpad stopped working ... works in Windows 7 ok ... I have tried several things to get it working again but nothing does it ...
[12:20] <mmm4m5m> wols: I build it from svn. Can't find good docs to dig more into it. Problem is - webcam not shown at all... All video tutorials/demos I saw - after first start, program have webcam source already present... No idea what to do... Their IRC channel is empty
[12:20] <the_dark_knight> muelli: thanks . but Do you know any tool like apache - benchmarking(ab)? ab is merely an example.
[12:21] <muelli> the_dark_knight: probably not. "time" maybe...
[12:22] <Dragonster82> Hello everybody!
[12:22] <the_dark_knight> muelli: time will calculate the execution time. thanks anyway

[12:23] <simplew> why dkms packages are not requiring kernel headers package???
[12:24] <PatrickDickey> simplew, a guess would be that they included the headers in the kernel source package. Which release are you on?
[12:25] <jalexandru> can I crate a centos boot usb using startup disk creator in ubuntu 12.04?
[12:26] <dr_willis> jalexandru:  doubt if that will work. you could 'dd' to image the iso to flash. or use the tools from pendrivelinux website
[12:26] <PatrickDickey> jalexandru, you probably want to use unetbootin for that. I *believe* the startup disk creator just creates a bootable recovery disk for ubuntu. I could be mistaken though.
[12:26] <simplew> PatrickDickey: 12.10, thats simply unbelievable, and thats leads to many newbies not knowing what to do to have things wroking when there are dkms packages involved
[12:27] <jalexandru> dr_willis, PatrickDickey thanks for the alternatives I'll go try ....
[12:27] <PatrickDickey> simplew, the headers are a part of the source if you compile the kernel yourself. So, it's possible that they left them in there. As i said, it's just a guess though.
[12:27] <PatrickDickey> simplew are you on 12.10?
[12:28] <simplew> PatrickDickey: you havent heard what i said, dkms packages need kernel headers, else they dont build, or you dont know what dkms packages are

[12:44] <robb4n> PatrickDickey: that command doesnt work ether :/
[12:44] <Tom76> You will be asked to automatically fetch and install the firmware into the right location. Again, you will need an internet connection.
[12:44] <cfhowlett> nydel: what's the issue, man.
[12:44] <nydel> thesadmafioso: can you be more specific? how do you try to run the binary & what happens?
[12:44] <Tom76> i dont have an internet connection :/
[12:45] <nydel> cfhowlett: here to serve
[12:45] <nydel> cfhowlett: but thanks
[12:45] <PatrickDickey> robb4n does it still say not found?
[12:45] <Tom76> i have this laptop though why cant i just download the firmware and install it on the other laptop
[12:45] <thesadmafioso> i checked the file with "ls -l" and it shows it's executable, but when I use "./filename" it says it cannot execute
[12:45] <robb4n> PatrickDickey: yes
[12:45] <cfhowlett> nydel: maybe you can help Tom76.  DL'd a package and attempted to dpkg but the darn thing keeps trying to DL again.
[12:46] <nydel> thesadmafioso: are you sure it is a binary file? try ". filename" if you are in the correct directory
[12:46] <thesadmafioso> ok I will try and report that

[12:51] <IdleOne> simplew: sorry the package name is apt-rdepends
[12:51] <nydel> thesadmafioso: did you try adding the rhythmbox ppa & apt-getting the latest build? or do you really wanna build it yourself
[12:51] <cfhowlett> thesadmafioso: dist-release would upgrade the distribution to the latest release.  fyi.
[12:51] <PatrickDickey> robb4n are you using the steps from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine by chance?
[12:51] <BluesKaj> !upgrade | thesadmafioso
[12:51] <IdleOne> simplew: that package will list any dependencies for a specific package
[12:51] <Pici> IdleOne: that does recursive rdepends, apt-cache rdepends will show one 'layer' of them.
[12:52] <robb4n> PatrickDickey: nope
[12:52] <simplew> IdleOne: will list how, where?
[12:52] <thesadmafioso> nydel I don't know how to add rhythmbox ppa
[12:52] <IdleOne> Pici: I'm not sure I understand, could you explain more to both myself and simplew please

[12:54] <Pici> simplew, IdleOne: apt-cache rdepends packagename  will list all the reverse dependencies of a package, but will not list the reverse dependencies of those packages.  apt-rdepends will 'walk' the reverse dependencies and list all of the reverse dependcies of all the packages, it will be a very long list.
[12:54] <nydel> thesadmafioso: then do sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get install rhythmbox
[12:54] <nydel> thesadmafioso: do you follow what i'm saying?
[12:54] <thesadmafioso> yes
[12:54] <Pici> simplew, IdleOne: If you're looking to install something offline, you're probably looking for the dependencies anyway, not reverse depends.
[12:54] <thesadmafioso> I understand that it's a third party repository to add for apt-get to look in the right place for newest rhythmbox
[12:55] <thesadmafioso> right?
[12:56] <PatrickDickey> robb4n were you getting the file not found error before doing the install python-software-properties command?
[12:56] <robb4n> PatrickDickey: after and before doing it
[12:56] <IdleOne> Pici: ah, I see now. Thanks for explaining. So, how does one list the dependencies of a package?
[12:56] <simplew> IdleOne: for example in rpm distros to check requires we do: rpm -q --requires foo
[12:56] <thesadmafioso> nydel: I pasted that command and it fetched gpg keys, was that right?
[12:57] <Pici> IdleOne: apt-cache depends packagename
[12:57] <IdleOne> simplew: ^
[12:57] <IdleOne> Pici: thanks again
[12:57] <PatrickDickey> robb4n try this whereis apt-add-repository
[12:58] <simplew> Pici: that lists all dependencies, isnt there a way to just list requires?
[12:58] <nydel> thesadmafioso: yes that's right. now when you do "sudo apt-get update" it will get the latest rhythmbox.
[12:58] <Tom76> got it cfhowlett thanks
[12:58] <nydel> thesadmafioso: after you do the update, do "sudo apt-get install rhythmbox" and see if it gets a newer version
[12:59] <IdleOne> simplew: depends are requires
[12:59] <nydel> thesadmafioso: if it doesn't, tell me & i'll find the correct package name
[12:59] <thesadmafioso> nydel: If it's not a bother could you explain why it fetched a gpg key and why I am not seeing it in my "gpg --list-keys"
[12:59] <simplew> IdleOne: no, depends include all, requires, provides, suggests
[12:59] <thesadmafioso> I realize I'm probably a pain
[13:00] <nydel> thesadmafioso: are you root?
[13:00] <PatrickDickey> thesadmafioso the gpg key is required to authenticate packages. As for why it's not listed in your keys, I'm not sure. I believe it's probably in root's gpg keys.
[13:00] <nydel> what PatrickDickey said.
[13:00] <thesadmafioso> didn't execute "gpg --list-keys" as root, no
[13:00] <Pici> simplew: apt-cache -i depends packagename will only list the depends and predepends, not concflicts/suggests/recommends
[13:01] <thesadmafioso> Thx PatrickDickey
[13:01] <PatrickDickey> thesadmafioso, no problem.
[13:01] <simplew> Pici: that way does not list requires
[13:01] <nydel> thesadmafioso: your personal keys are in ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf & i assume it's blank.
[13:01] <thesadmafioso> nydel: it gave me the same output as before with "sudo apt-get install rhythmbox"
[13:01] <IdleOne> simplew: or apt-cache depends packagename | grep Depends
[13:01] <Pici> simplew: what package are you trying to get information about?
[13:01] <nydel> PatrickDickey: where is the master pgp key file?
[13:01] <PatrickDickey> robb4n, did whereis apt-add-repository show anything?
[13:01] <nydel> *gpg
[13:01] <malay> Hello all !!!!
[13:02] <thesadmafioso> nydel: nope, I use PGP encryption for emailing so I've got keys
[13:02] <PatrickDickey> nydel, I'm not sure. I've never really dug into it that far to find out.
[13:02] <simplew> Pici:  that irrelevant, but IdleOne  suggested a grep, its a way, but i thought there was a way to get requires lsited directly
[13:02] <nydel> thesadmafioso: what output exactly do you get from "sudo apt-get install rhythmbox"
[13:02] <[twisti]> hello, i have a question: when i did apt-get install logwatch, i got this message:
[13:02] <[twisti]> Suggested packages:
[13:02] <[twisti]>   fortune-mod
[13:02] <thesadmafioso> be right back
[13:02] <[twisti]> this isnt the first time i saw that 'suggested' thing too
[13:02] <[twisti]> but how do i find out more ?
[13:03] <[twisti]> trying to put the name on google just gives things like file lists or package size
[13:03] <[twisti]> but how do i learn what that ACTUALLY IS and why it was suggested ?
[13:03] <BluesKaj> !suggested
[13:03] <nydel> [twisti]: why not browse the source code of the application you're installing?
[13:03] <IdleOne> simplew: the -i like Pici suggested and the grep that I suggested list the same Depends, which unless I am mistaken are equivalent to requires in rpm distros
[13:03] <wols> it was suggested cause the maintainer thinks it's a good idea. and it's just a package, like any other
[13:04] <[twisti]> nydel: is that a joke ?
[13:04] <[twisti]> you think im going to learn a new programming language and randomly read through source to find out what a piece of software does ?
[13:04] <nydel> [twisti]: no, sorry. it sounds like you want to learn & you're not quite sure /what/ you want to learn, right?
[13:04] <notso188> Came from #ubuntustudio but no response. How do I get the Hibernate function back? It is grayed out.
[13:04] <[twisti]> no, im very sure: i want to learn what that package is
[13:04] <Pici> simplew: There isn't a 'Required' listing in dpkg, are you looking for things that have "Priority: Required"?
[13:04] <nydel> [twisti]: oh i'm sorry i thought you were asking about how to just keep learning
[13:05] <llutz> [twisti]: apt-cache show <packagename>           gives you more info on that package, but not a reason why it was suggested
[13:05] <[twisti]> theres no way there arent descriptions somewhere
[13:05] <nydel> [twisti]: usually the search string "ubuntu package "name"" will bring you a page with descriptions
[13:05] <nydel> [twisti]: let me see about that particular package
[13:05] <[twisti]> yeah, i got this
[13:05] <[twisti]> http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/fortune-mod
[13:05] <[twisti]> but thats not really helpful to people who dont know what it is
[13:05] <dr_willis> !info fortune-mod
[13:05] <[twisti]> thanks
[13:06] <nydel> yes [twisti] see here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fortune-mod
[13:06] <[twisti]> and thank llutz too
[13:06] <Pici> [twisti]: 'Suggests' are are a listing on a package which are not required to be installed for the program to run, but might be helpful.
[13:06] <dr_willis> gotta love fortune cokies
[13:06] <nydel> [twisti]: most of the ubuntu packages that will be suggested will have a page on launchpad. from there you can view the readme or source etc & find what a package does / is for etc.
[13:06] <nydel> i hope that helps
[13:07] <[twisti]> well, that in particular doesnt seem like a terribly useful thing to install ;) i have seen things recommended before that i knew by name and sometimes followed suggestions, i was really just looking for what llutz suggested
[13:07] <thesadmafioso> nydel: I have returned
[13:07] <Pici> [twisti]: logwatch, for example, has a module that will insert a random quote at the end of the emailed log. Clearly, its not required for it to function, but you might want to install fortune-mod if you want that feature.
[13:07] <designbybeck> is it best to put your fonts in /home/username/.fonts or /usr/share/fonts ?
[13:07] <thesadmafioso> nydel: output of "sudo apt-get install rhythmbox" is lengthy, should I put it up on screen or PM you with it maybe?
[13:07] <designbybeck> or where is the best place to put fonts!?
[13:08] <[twisti]> Pici: i think ill opt to go without it ;)
[13:08] <nydel> thesadmafioso: use http://pastebin.ubuntu.com please
[13:08] <[twisti]> but thanks for the help, everyone
[13:08] <thesadmafioso> ok will do that
[13:08] <Brianking> hiiiiiiiiiii
[13:08] <jrib> designbybeck: /usr/share/fonts/ is system-wide (every user) and /home/username/.fonts is just for your user
[13:08] <brontosaurusrex> designbybeck: the ones in your home map are only for you, the ones in /usr should be system wide < all users
[13:09] <designbybeck> ok thank you jrib and brontosaurusrex
[13:09] <thesadmafioso> nydel: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1300013/
[13:10] <nydel> thanks thesadmafioso
[13:10] <alone> hello all
[13:10] <thesadmafioso> hi
[13:10] <Kvaks> If I have an LVM group within which I have logical volumes for / and /home, will the installation process of Ubuntu detect the LVM and easily let me keep the /home intact like I could if it was a traditional partition?
[13:10] <PatrickDickey> hi alone
[13:11] <cfhowlett> alone: greetings
[13:11] <islandmonkey> Hello alone
[13:11] <nydel> thesadmafioso: type "sudo apt-get install rhythmbox" & press tab twice
[13:11] <cfhowlett> islandmonkey: greetings
[13:12] <osse> Hi, I'm running Ubuntu Server 12.04. Currently my eth0 only has a static IPv6 adress and IPv4 is disabled. Can I re-enable IPv6 and receive an IP from DHCP without rebooting or temporarily disable eth0 ?
[13:12] <nydel> thesadmafioso: you will see many different options. i will try to figure out which one is the newest build. what version is installed? and what version are you trying to build?
[13:12] <osse> Re-enable IPv4 I mean
[13:12] <PatrickDickey> alone, is there something we can help you with?
[13:12] <smartboyhw> Hi guys after install python-sip it removed python-qt4 and it says The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[13:12] <smartboyhw>  python-qt4 : Depends: sip-api-8.1 but it is not installable
[13:12] <smartboyhw>  but then if python-sip includes the virtual package then it should be installable. Someone help
[13:13] <thesadmafioso> There is no version installed and I am trying to build/install 2.98
[13:13] <alone> PatrickDickey: no, just "hi" :)
[13:13] <PatrickDickey> nydel would dpkg -l | grep rhythmbox help him to find out what's installed?
[13:13] <jrib> smartboyhw: 1) what ubuntu version? 2) Have you installed any unofficial packages or enabled any unofficial repositories?
[13:13] <smartboyhw> jrib, 1) 12.10 2) I don't know
[13:14] <jrib> smartboyhw: I don't understand how you can not know
[13:14] <nydel> PatrickDickey: i think so. i've some things to learn about dpkg
[13:14] <thesadmafioso> PatrickDickey: I tried the grep lookup for dpkg, nothing comes up. No install :)
[13:14] <lasher> I cannot see a theme menu in Empathy ubuntu 12.10. Is it no longer possible to change?
[13:14] <whatwhat> how to installl file with bin.sh
[13:14] <jrib> smartboyhw: pastebin the output of « apt-cache policy python-qt4 python-sip sip-api-8.1
[13:14] <smartboyhw> jrib: I don't think so, if it is about python-sip and python-qt4
[13:14] <whatwhat> what's the commmmand line
[13:15] <jrib> smartboyhw: it's about any package
[13:15] <nydel> PatrickDickey: when we try to install rhythmbox, we're told the package is obsolete..
[13:15] <nydel> thesadmafioso: i think this might install rhythmbox: "sudo apt-get install rhythmbox-plugin-coherence"
[13:15] <PatrickDickey> whatwhat the command line is the terminal or if you press CTRL + ALT + F1 through F6, the screen.
[13:15] <smartboyhw> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1300036/
[13:15] <PatrickDickey> whatwhat try this. CTRL key + Alt key + T (all at the same time).
[13:16] <jrib> smartboyhw: umm, "raring"?
[13:16] <smartboyhw> jrib, well yes I enabled the raring repos
[13:16] <whatwhat> so tat's why u are a dickey ?
[13:16] <whatwhat> lol
[13:16] <jrib> smartboyhw: ok... why?
[13:16] <thesadmafioso> nydel: tried that also, it says I have broken packages and dependencies aren't met
[13:16] <smartboyhw> But then I think I can still get python-qt4 and python-sip from there
[13:16] <PatrickDickey> lol nope. just good genetics. ;-)
[13:16] <smartboyhw> jrib, er...for fun:P
[13:16] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i will pastebin output
[13:16] <jrib> smartboyhw: raring is bound to be really broken at this stage
[13:16] <nydel> thesadmafioso: pas....good, i was gonna ask :)
[13:17] <jrib> smartboyhw: anyway, it's not supported here
[13:17] <smartboyhw> jrib, yyeah
[13:18] <thesadmafioso> nydel: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1300040/
[13:18]  * PatrickDickey doesn't like dogfood enough to enable raring on my only system within 7 days after Quantal is released...
[13:18] <alone> Unable to read from: TakPic/takpic.sh
[13:18] <nydel> thesadmafioso: does "which rhythmbox" give you blank output?

[13:18] <BlackNarcissus> Hello everyone. Anyone else using jabber.org for XMPP messaging with empathy on Ubuntu 12.04 is having a certificate expired warning when logging in ?
[13:18] <thesadmafioso> nydel: you mean the pressing tab 2 times thing?
[13:19] <thesadmafioso> nydel: it ouputs this: rhythmbox                        rhythmbox-dbg                    rhythmbox-radio-browser
[13:19] <thesadmafioso> rhythmbox-applet                 rhythmbox-plugin-coherence       rhythmbox-ubuntuone-music-store
[13:19] <PatrickDickey> BlackNarcissus I'm not using jabber, but I'd imagine they'll be updating their certificate shortly.
[13:20] <nydel> thesadmafioso: no, i mean "which rhythmbox"
[13:20] <thesadmafioso> nydel: it returns nothing
[13:21] <freijon> is there a channel for the Gnome Remix?
[13:21] <BlackNarcissus> PatrickDickey: Yes, but I wonder if it's not a bug with empathy, it has a history of messing up with certificate, and jabber.org hasn't notified any certificate updates. Thanks :)
[13:22] <PatrickDickey> freijon, you could try #ubuntu-gnome It's the channel for Ubuntu GNOME Help.
[13:22] <freijon> thanks PatrickDickey
[13:22] <PatrickDickey> freijon, no problem.
[13:22] <nydel> thesadmafioso: okay, i think we /do/ have to build it from scratch!
[13:22] <thesadmafioso> nydel: this is what I am afraid of
[13:22] <nydel> thesadmafioso: are you using the tar.xz from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/rhythmbox/2.98/
[13:23] <thesadmafioso> nydel: yes, I have that file and have verified the checksum on it
[13:23] <PatrickDickey> BlackNarcissus no problem, and sorry for not replying sooner.
[13:24] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i tried to install it once before
[13:24] <designbybeck> Was glad to see they left F3-SplitScreen in the file browser in 12.10!! I use that a lot!
[13:24] <thesadmafioso> nydel: from scratch but it did not work out
[13:24] <nydel> thesadmafioso: okay i'm going to try installing it too, would you like to do it at the same time?
[13:24] <thesadmafioso> nydel: you are the best, and yes
[13:25] <nydel> thesadmafioso: you've extracted it, yes?
[13:25] <thesadmafioso> nydel: no, I used shred to decimate everything in a fit of rage
[13:25] <thesadmafioso> nydel: :)
[13:25] <nydel> thesadmafioso: haha wonderful
[13:26] <thesadmafioso> nydel: will extract it now to the folder it's in
[13:26] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i created a seperate folder for it
[13:28] <nydel> thesadmafioso: do sudo apt-get install gobject-introspection, if you haven't already
[13:28] <thesadmafioso> nydel: I will want to use "tar xvzf filename.tar.xz" right?
[13:28] <thesadmafioso> nydel: ok but what is that
[13:28]  * PatrickDickey needs to find a new graphics card. This ATI Radeon HD 2450 isn't going to be suported apparently.
[13:28] <xMopxShell> Hi guys, I just installed & updated 12.10. After i installed nvidia-current and nvidia-settings, unity is gone and im stuck at 640x480. can anyone help?
[13:28] <nydel> thesadmafioso: use tar Jxf for a tar.xf
[13:28] <Eagleman> How do i point this address to the local machine?  (  http://hgg-fs/software/wiki/MileStone/changelog.xml )
[13:29] <nydel> thesadmafioso: that will install a few packages that rhythmbox depends on
[13:30] <thesadmafioso> nydel: it is giving me problems with "sudo apt-get install gobject-introspection"
[13:30] <thesadmafioso> says the same thing about no installation cantidate
[13:30] <nydel> the packages are: python-markupsafe, python-mako & gobject-introspection
[13:30] <KaKila1> no menus in libreoffice and 12.10. Any help?
[13:30] <nydel> thesadmafioso: you are running 12.10?
[13:30] <thesadmafioso> nydel: "No installation candidate" excuse me
[13:30] <xangua> KaKila1: they are in the panel
[13:30] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman do you have a static IP Address or a dynamic one from your ISP?
[13:30] <thesadmafioso> nydel: no, I am running 10.04 LTS
[13:30] <KaKila1> xangua: what do you mena in the panel?
[13:31] <Eagleman> PatrickDickey its in a LAN running inside its own vmware dhcp pool
[13:31] <Eagleman> So its dynamic
[13:31] <xangua> KaKila1: the panel at the top... the top panel
[13:31] <nydel> thesadmafioso: oh! i did not understand that. hmm. we can try something a little crazy
[13:31] <KaKila1> xangua: I may not understand you, but no. They aren't anywhere.
[13:31] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman are you only wanting to redirect it inside of your lan, or do you want people outside to get to it?
[13:31] <thesadmafioso> nydel: at this point I just want to listen to the new Godspeed You! Black Emperor record and will do any crazy thing to get that accomplished
[13:32] <thesadmafioso> nydel: seriously.
[13:32] <nydel> thesadmafioso: i would recommend an alternative media player such as clementine
[13:32] <Eagleman> PatrickDickey the server itself needs to know that http://hgg-fs/ is its own machine
[13:32] <nydel> thesadmafioso: do you /need/ to use rhythmbox?
[13:33] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman, that sounds like a question for an apache help room (at least to me).
[13:33] <thesadmafioso> nydel: well I have a lot several podcasts I keep up with
[13:33] <thesadmafioso> nydel: but other than that, no not really.
[13:33] <PatrickDickey> thesadmafioso is there any reason you can't use banshee? (just throwing out an alternative)
[13:33] <nydel> thesadmafioso: i would try installing clementine & see if you like it. i /adore/ it. and you'll be able to use your podcasts etc with it.
[13:33] <thesadmafioso> PatrickDickey: not that I know of
[13:34] <Eagleman> PatrickDickey its dns related
[13:34] <nydel> thesadmafioso: also remember if you are playing mp3s you can always use mpg123 from the command line.
[13:34] <thesadmafioso> Ok I guess I'll give that a go
[13:34] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i had no idea about any such command
[13:34] <nydel> thesadmafioso: "mpg123 filename &"
[13:34] <nydel> try that?
[13:35] <KaKila1> xangua: http://picpaste.com/pics/libreoffice-v5aHCj2J.1350999302.png
[13:35] <KaKila1> xangua: that is with the mouse pointer over the "top panel"
[13:36] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman hostname hgg-fs maybe? And then add it to /etc/hosts as <IP_ADDRESS>.
[13:36] <poglesbyg> I'm trying to install gecko for wine. could I get some help?
[13:36] <thesadmafioso> nydel: that mpg123 filename & killed my terminal
[13:36] <thesadmafioso> nydel: haha
[13:37] <nydel> lol did it now
[13:37] <Eagleman> How do i point this address to the local machine?  (  http://hgg-fs/software/wiki/MileStone/changelog.xml )
[13:37] <nydel> thesadmafioso: are you getting sound from other programs?
[13:37] <thesadmafioso> nydel: so, could you possibly explain in a nutshell what you think is going on with Rhythmbox?
[13:37] <thesadmafioso> nydel: it sure did lol
[13:38] <thesadmafioso> nydel: yes
[13:38] <nydel> thesadmafioso: well you're running an outdated release of ubuntu, & rhythmbox depends on a lot of packages you do not have installed. you'd have to go through & install all of its dependencies, perhaps one-by-one, in order to use it.
[13:38] <xangua> KaKila1: tried to delete libreoffice configuration¿ (.config hidden directory in your home
[13:38] <cnf> hmm, if only i could get side swipe to switch desktops now
[13:38] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman when you type hostname into the server, what does it say?
[13:39] <nydel> thesadmafioso: can you open a file manager to your music folder?
[13:39] <Eagleman> hgg-fs-new
[13:39] <flooble77> I've just finished upgrading to 12.10 and can't now set display resolution to the correct native res for my laptop, only up to 1152x864
[13:39] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman, do you have another server that has hgg-fs for it's hostname?
[13:40] <Eagleman> yes but this is in another network so it should be hgg-fs
[13:40] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman hostname hgg-fs
[13:40] <thesadmafioso> what are the benefits of upgrading to the new 12.10 release as opposed to staying with an old distro like 10.04
[13:40] <erictr1ck> after i upgraded to 12.10, i get the following error when using vinagre: Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[13:41] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman if they're on the same subnet, you'll have problems. And if you're trying to connect from the subnet that has the other hgg-fs server in it, you'll end up there instead.
[13:41] <thesadmafioso> nydel: yes I'm looking at my music now
[13:41] <PatrickDickey> thesadmafioso, mainly the support factor. I'm not sure if they'll still provide updates for 10.04 (or how long they'll provide them).
[13:41] <nydel> thesadmafioso: aside from the advancements across the board, you'll have so much less trouble doing anything
[13:42] <Eagleman> they'r on the 172.16 address
[13:42] <Eagleman> i am on the 192.168 network which is not in use
[13:42] <nydel> PatrickDickey said what i meant much better, thesadmafioso
[13:42] <nydel> thesadmafioso: right-click an mp3, see if there are any programs installed that will open it?
[13:42] <nydel> PatrickDickey: when did unity show up?
[13:42] <thesadmafioso> PatrickDickey: Yeah that's been on my mind a bit
[13:42] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman, if they are on the same subnet (<IP_ADDRESS> for example), then you can't have them both be named the same.
[13:42] <PatrickDickey> nydel 11.04? 11.10 for sure.
[13:43] <Eagleman> they'r not
[13:43] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i did notice the new kernel builds are supporting more ARM architecture
[13:43] <thesadmafioso> nydel: so the new distros I guess would have more support for newer stuff . . . "Advancements" as you say
[13:44] <thesadmafioso> nydel: I hate the unity desktop thing
[13:44] <thesadmafioso> nydel: hate it so much
[13:44] <nydel> thesadmafioso: well, we're all working on 12.10/quantal. not that "it's the status quo" is an argument in itself, but, the operating system is overall quicker, better, in many ways
[13:44] <PatrickDickey> Eagleman, the easiest way (to me at least) is this. hostname hgg-fs on the server you want it to point to. Then in your /etc/hosts on the local computer, put it's IP address in with that name.  After I finished installed ubuntu 12.10, I installed kubuntu-netbook by using apt-get. After reboot, I found every window opened are in KDE style. What's up to my computer?
[13:44] <nydel> thesadmafioso: i use cinnamon instead. technically, we do not support cinnamon. but i will tell you how to set it up if you like.
[13:45] <Eagleman> PatrickDickey its just for testing
[13:45] <thesadmafioso> sorry nydel, I cannot hear you as I am currently blinded by my seething hatred for unity
[13:45] <thesadmafioso> :)
[13:45] <flooble77> i'm not sure if this is likely to be a driver thing, an xorg.conf thing or what; has this bitten anyone else?
[13:45] <PatrickDickey> thesadmafioso, you can get the Gnome shell on 12.10 or Xfce or another desktop.
[13:45] <thesadmafioso> or perhaps rendered deaf is a better description . . .
[13:45] <nydel> thesadmafioso: lol i TOTALLY hear you.
[13:45] <nydel> thesadmafioso: take a look at this: http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/
[13:46] <nydel> thesadmafioso: i almost quit ubuntu when unity came out. but cinnamon saved me.
[13:46]  * PatrickDickey likes cinnamon... of course I like unity also. :S
[13:46] <abdelghani> I used ''miro '' to download some music, where can I find the downloaded files?
[13:46] <PatrickDickey> flooble77, what is it doing? And what kind of graphics card do you have?
[13:46]  * nydel doesn't really HATE unity, is more worried it's turning users off.
[13:47] <michealPW> Does anybody know where the user faces/icons/avatars are stored in Ubuntu 12.04? (The actual file locations on the local disk, not the utility to change it)
[13:47] <KaKila1> xangua: yeah, no results
[13:47] <flooble77> PatrickDickey: I can't see the native resolution in setting or via xrandr, only up to 1152x864; there was no problem before i upgraded to 12.10
[13:47] <cnf> if i could get some decent gesture support, i would be more lenient towards unity
[13:48] <thesadmafioso> nydel: the only program to play mp3 is VLC, nothing else
[13:48] <Fedora17> hi, any speak spaniish¿
[13:48] <PatrickDickey> michealPW it should be in /home/username/.face
[13:48] <nydel> michaelni: does this help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/61637/where-is-the-users-profile-picture-stored-in-gnome-3
[13:48] <flooble77> PatrickDickey: it's an ati radeon 4570, but as i say it was working great before upgrading
[13:48] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: That's what everybody tells me and it's the only thing I can find on Google... But ~/.face does not exist :(
[13:48] <nydel> thesadmafioso: VLC makes a fine audio player ime
[13:49] <PatrickDickey> flooble77, ATI hasn't released their latest drivers yet. And from what I understood, it won't cover anything lower than an HD 5000 series. :S I'm in the same boat as you.
[13:49] <nydel> thesadmafioso: is your installation a wubi, by chance?
[13:49] <michealPW> Ah, thanks very much nydel!
[13:49] <sln> HP scanjet 2410 no working correctly in 10.04. Do I need to configure it? Please help
[13:49] <PatrickDickey> michealPW did you try ls -l in your home directory?
[13:49] <nydel> michealPW: yw friend
[13:49] <BluesKaj> nydel, we heqard you the first time about unity , I'm a KDE user , but hate isn't the reason I use it. taste is more like it
[13:49] <thesadmafioso> nydel: originally yes but I am solely a linux user now
[13:49] <fedora17nvidia> hola
[13:49] <PatrickDickey> michealPW sorry ls -la
[13:50] <michealPW> So, now I can make symlinks in the location KDM stores it's avatars and also make symlinks in the location GDM/LightDM stores its avatars. That way I have all the face icons/avatars regardless of the DM I use :P
[13:50] <flooble77> PatrickDickey: oh, i see. i guess i'll try downgrading some stuff :) thanks
[13:50] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: I think that's the old GNOME v2 location, mate. That location does not exist on these newer GNOME 3 systems, it seems.
[13:50] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: They use something called "AccountServices", whatever that is :p
[13:50] <nydel> BluesKaj: i don't mean to badmouth ubuntu by proxy. i am going through proper channels to nominate cinnamon to be included in the next release. i don't want to lose users.
[13:50] <PatrickDickey> flooble77, I ended up doing sudo apt-get purge flgrx to get rid of the problem. I had no panels in unity (had to do it from Xfce).
[13:51] <fedora17nvidia> please what channel speak linux in spanish?
[13:51] <michealPW> nydel: Nah, it will never happen I bet. They [Canonical] will just keep working on Unity.
[13:51] <PatrickDickey> michealPW I have it in my home directory.
[13:51] <fedora17nvidia> i'm a serius probem ;(
[13:51] <nydel> thesadmafioso: well here is something.  in /host/ubuntu/disks is a file "root.disk" -- that's your wubi install.  you could make a copy of it, root.disk.old. COPY not MOVE. then you could upgrade to 12.10, & if you don't like it, you can just move the old root disk back.
[13:51] <nydel> thesadmafioso: no harm done.
[13:51] <michealPW> nydel: They [Canonical] believe Unity is meant to improve user experience from GNOME-Shell; personally I think KDE would be the best heehee :P
[13:51] <abdelghani> I used ''miro '' to download some music, where can I find the downloaded files?
[13:51] <nydel> thesadmafioso: what do you think?
[13:52] <Copernicus2K> HEY
[13:52] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia, un momento por favor.
[13:52] <Copernicus2K> how can i check how many lines in a text file?
[13:52] <BluesKaj> nydel, cinnamon looks interesting ,but I doubt you'll see that on ubuntu
[13:52] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: Hrmm, that's interesting. Maybe I don't understand ~/.face... Maybe that's for what's currently selected as your default? Like.. When you select an avatar, maybe it copies it var /var/wherever into ~/.face
[13:52] <cnf> hmz
[13:52] <cnf> why is it so hard to get gestures working on linux :/
[13:52] <thesadmafioso> ls
[13:52] <thesadmafioso> oops
[13:52] <PatrickDickey> I believe so michealPW
[13:52] <thesadmafioso> nydel: that is an interesting idea
[13:53] <flooble77> Copernicus2K: `wc -l $filename`
[13:53] <nydel> BluesKaj: it's SO good though. one insanely great feature is that it allows you to treat your primary display as a workspace set & your secondary display as a static screen.
[13:53] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: My problem is I swapped out LightDM for KDM.. When I open the "About Me" in KDE, I have no icon selected. When I try to choose one, I only have very limited options, none of the options available in LightDM/GDM.. So what I want to do is symlink all those nice avatars that LightDM/GDM have so they're available in KDM/KDE
[13:53] <fedora17nvidia> ok PatrickDickey, buenas tardes
[13:53] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia #ubuntu-es o #ubuntu-es-cafe o #kubuntu-es o #xubuntu-es o #lubuntu-es
[13:53] <flooble77> PatrickDickey: ok, i'll start with fglrx then. thanks again!
[13:54] <thesadmafioso> nydel: you know, I don't have a /hosts directory
[13:54] <fedora17nvidia> thanks, i'm serius probem in my computer ;)
[13:54] <nydel> thesadmafioso: /host
[13:54] <PatrickDickey> flooble77 no problem. Good luck. I'm looking for a new card myself.
[13:54] <thesadmafioso> nydel: that's what i meant sorry
[13:54] <Myrtti> fedora17nvidia: #fedora-es
[13:54] <nydel> thesadmafioso: but you're using a wubi installation?
[13:55] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i am thinking I actually tried ubuntu with wubi but then wiped the entire thing HDD and installed 10.04 fresh
[13:55] <BluesKaj> nydel, I use large monitor with 8 desktops , a separate desktop for each app
[13:55] <thesadmafioso> nydel: actually now that I think back that's exactly what I did
[13:55] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia esta utile fedora o ubuntu?
[13:55] <thesadmafioso> nydel: no, I started with a wubi dual boot to try out linux and then just went full on Ubuntu haha
[13:55]  * PatrickDickey my Spanish is horrible...
[13:55] <fedora17nvidia> fedora17
[13:55] <worm> Problem on installing kde (kubuntu-desktop). After installed that, all of my windows (both in unity and kde) are shown in KDE style.  Any solution?
[13:56] <thesadmafioso> nydel: it was a long time ago
[13:56] <nydel> BluesKaj: that's kind of awesome. out of curiosity may i ask what your 8 apps are?
[13:56] <nablet> hi, i am on U12.04, use fluxbox and wicd. at random moments my wireless networks stops working and i cant get it back on without rebooting. sudo iwlist scan gives me "failed to read scan data: invalid argument"
[13:56] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia entonces quiere #fedora-es
[13:56] <thesadmafioso> nydel: so, think I'm going to install this clementine
[13:56] <fedora17nvidia> install drivers nvidia and now not iniciating SO
[13:56] <nydel> thesadmafioso: oh, okay. you only have a /host if you're using a wubi install -- then /host is your "C:" or whatever.
[13:56] <nydel> thesadmafioso: try it out, i think you'll like it if you need a good all-around music player.
[13:57] <nydel> thesadmafioso: it should be apt-gettable, just apt-get install clementine i think.
[13:57] <fedora17nvidia> in ubuntu i can put "sudo remove --purgue nvidia" but in fedora...
[13:57] <nydel> is there software center in 10.04 or just synaptic
[13:58] <fedora17nvidia> not as accessible as a terminal
[13:58] <cfhowlett> fedora17nvidia: wrong channel.  No help for fedora here.
[13:58] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia fedora utile yum
[13:58] <nydel> thesadmafioso: i /really/ think you ought to consider an upgrade to 12.10.. i have been using since before unity and it's totally  possible to use the new ubuntu and never, ever use unity.
[13:58] <michealPW> Found it~!
[13:58] <Myrtti> fedora17nvidia: /join #fedora-es
[13:58] <PatrickDickey> cfhowlett, there's no help for him in fedora-es he's already there.
[13:58] <michealPW> It's in /usr/share/pixmaps/faces
[13:59] <michealPW> All the avatars for default Ubuntu
[13:59] <michealPW> hehe
[14:00] <worm> Got a strange problem on kubuntu. After I finished installed ubuntu 12.10, I installed kubuntu-netbook by using apt-get. After reboot, when I get into unity, I found every window opened are in KDE style with a unity border. It is too ugly.  Any solution?
[14:00] <thesadmafioso> nydel: i have one more small question
[14:00] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia su - password entonces yum remove nvidia
[14:00] <jackhill> Hello, how can I tell if someone is logged in graphically? In the past, I used ck-list-sessions and looked to see if there was anything in the x11-display lines (with grep and cut). In 12.10 with lightdm the greeter makes it look like someone is logged in.
[14:00] <jackhill> Do I have to write someting to parse all the output of ck-list-sessions or is there something quick and easy?
[14:00] <BluesKaj> nydel, any 8 apps , usually a browser , konversation , dolphin, systemsettings etc
[14:00] <fedora17nvidia> but, my pc d'ont run
[14:01] <fedora17nvidia> as get to terminal?
[14:01] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: Ah, so that's why.. GDM is what looks in ~/ for a .face and if not found it looks for a ~/.face.icon. If still not found it'll read your gnome config for the location.. So really my question should not be where GDM is storing it, but where Ubuntu's LightDM stores it? :P
[14:01] <PatrickDickey> fedora17nvidia ctrl + alt + F2  keys
[14:01] <thesadmafioso> in the terminal, is there any way to move around when directories have blank spaces in between their names
[14:01] <michealPW> Since by default, Ubuntu doesn't use GDM it uses LightDM hehe!
[14:01] <thesadmafioso> Like: "cd this-directory" works, but "cd this directory" will not work
[14:02] <PatrickDickey> michealPW why were you looking for it anyhow?
[14:02] <SharkMuttleworth> thesadmafioso: You need to quote the text
[14:02] <SharkMuttleworth> thesadmafioso: Also, it's easier to use tab completion than typing the full name anyway
[14:02] <thesadmafioso> SharkMuttleworth ok what is that
[14:02] <michealPW> PatrickDickey: I want to make symbolic links to all these avatars and put the links in the directory KDM looks for avatars. I stopped using LightDM and I use KDM instead (But KDM by default has really ugly icons and there's not many to choose from.)
[14:02] <PatrickDickey> michealPW it probably still uses the Gnome config to find the location, so I'd check that first.
[14:03] <abdelghani> I used ''miro '' to download some music, where can I find the downloaded files?
[14:03] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Hi all
[14:03] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Quick question
[14:03] <thesadmafioso> SharkMuttleworth: ok, just figured it out . . . you just helped me out tremendously haha
[14:03] <jgcampbell300> morning
[14:04] <Oprr> I want set firefox how my default browser but when I open a html file rekonq open this file.. I've changed the property for .html file for be open with firefox
[14:04] <nablet> hi, i am on U12.04, use fluxbox and wicd. at random moments my wireless networks stops working and i cant get it back on without rebooting. sudo iwlist scan gives me "failed to read scan data: invalid argument"
[14:04] <PatrickDickey> abdelghani video > options > folders will show you where it's storing them. At least that's what I'm reading.
[14:04] <michealPW> Oprr: Goto System Settings -> Default Applications -> Web Browser: type "firefox" inplace of "rekonq"
[14:04] <Oprr> michealPW, ok
[14:04] <PatrickDickey> Eric_New_Ubuntu, ask and we'll help if we can. ;-)
[14:05] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Where would I find my thinderbird folder so i can import my accounts from my mac
[14:05] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I can't believe thunderbird doesn't have an export and import
[14:05] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> it's 2012
[14:05] <nydel> thesadmafioso: "mkdir this\ has\ spaces"
[14:06] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> anyone mind breaking off and helping me?
[14:06] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: ~/.thunderbird
[14:06] <Oprr> michealPW, thank you! ;)
[14:06] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Also, i am not an enthusiast, is there a linux distro that doesn't require me to be a sysadmin.  I mean it's fun and all but I suck at it
[14:06] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Yeah. that doesn't mean anything nydel.  I am sorry i probably look like a total noob
[14:07] <michealPW> Oprr: No problem, mate.
[14:07] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: i think you'll do /fine/ with ubuntu, & we're here to help :)
[14:07] <blackshirt> Eric_New_Ubuntu:  you can play a deep with them :D
[14:07] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: open up a terminal. hold control & alt and press "t"
[14:07] <PatrickDickey> Eric_New_Ubuntu they all require you to be a sysAdmin to a point. But I would say the *buntu or fedora ones are probably the easiest to maintain (leaning more towards the *buntu distros).
[14:07] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> yeah, here is the issue
[14:07] <jiffe98> it seems if ubuntu doesn't boot the first time or it reboots in the middle of a boot, grub doesn't automatically choose the default option on the second boot, is there a way to change this?
[14:07] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I just want to use the graphics interface
[14:07] <michealPW> Eric_New_Ubuntu: Thunderbird does indeed have import/export, btw
[14:08] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: okay. open your home folder from the bar on the left. do you see it?
[14:08] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I don't want to open a shell, sudo or any of that bother.
[14:08] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: okay. we can do this visually
[14:08] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> yes
[14:08] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Thank you
[14:08] <PatrickDickey> Eric_New_Ubuntu in Nautilus, click on View and then Show Hidden Files. it'll be in your Home directory.
[14:08] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> thank you so much
[14:08] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: did you open a file manager?
[14:08] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I can
[14:08] <blackshirt> Eric_New_Ubuntu: you can play with windows :D
[14:09] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: once you open the file manager, click a folder & press "Ctrl-H" to show hidden files. hidden files have a period at the beginning of their name
[14:09] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I actually am in data security and used to work for Cisco, but I suck as command line
[14:09] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I figured
[14:09] <thesadmafioso> nydel: thanks for the help, I am trying out clementine now
[14:09] <michealPW> Eric_New_Ubuntu: Your Home folder (/home/username/) is shortened with the tilde character (~) so when somebody says ~/, they mean /home/username/, your home directory. You asked where Thunderbird's preference folder is, it's in ~/.thunderbird (/home/username/.thunderbird) Note: All files or directories on Linux starting with a period (".") will be hidden. You'll need to unhide hidden files/folders if you're using a file browser to find it :P
[14:09] <nablet> Hi, my wireless network card suddenly stopped working. it works before. any ideas?
[14:09] <thesadmafioso> nydel: have a great day
[14:09] <nydel> thesadmafioso: you're welcome, sorry we couldn't get rhythmbox up, hope you like clementine. be well!
[14:09] <KaKila1> help. no menus in lbreoffcie and ubuntu 12.10.  http://picpaste.com/pics/libreoffice-v5aHCj2J.1350999302.png
[14:10] <thesadmafioso> PatrickDickey: thank you also for your help
[14:10] <nydel> Eric_New_Ubuntu: in your "home" folder there is a folder called ".thunderbird" - tell me when you find it
[14:10] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Where is te show hidden
[14:10] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> It's not in permissions
[14:10] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> where one would expect to find it. lol
[14:11] <PatrickDickey> thesadmafioso not a problem. Glad you got it worked out.
[14:11] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Thank god we have you guys though or I would have just uninstalled
[14:11] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Seriously though man, it's WAY over complicated
[14:11] <PatrickDickey> Eric_New_Ubuntu in the menu, click on View, then Show Hidden Files.
[14:11] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> I can't even find where half the shit is installed
[14:11] <fluitfries> how can i easily get rid of some line endings in a text file?
[14:11] <cnf> hmz, i'm making no headway with touchpad gestures :/
[14:11] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> ok, hold on
[14:12] <jgcampbell300> can anyone point me in the right direction ... i have a project that i so i am thinking of hiring some help on a project I have in mind and im not sure who i can consult with... i am thinking it will involve web data and some form of out put after the data has been anelized
[14:12] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> got it
[14:12] <PatrickDickey> fluffries, are you trying to get rid of the dos style ones?
[14:12] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> thanks
[14:12] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> ok
[14:12] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> brb let me rename like they suggest
[14:12] <PatrickDickey> fluitfries, are you trying to get rid of the dos style ones?
[14:13] <b00b00> Hi
[14:13] <PatrickDickey> hi b00b00
[14:13] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> ok, renamed and moved!
[14:14] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Done, thank you!
[14:14] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> one more question if I can
[14:14] <PatrickDickey> sure.
[14:14] <PatrickDickey> Ask as many as you need.
[14:14] <Eric_New_Ubuntu> Thunderbird fixed!  Thank you
