[08:06] <jagginess> mN- and ask it to save a .nvidia<> in ~ .. if you can get a 120Hz with the tool, you can script nvidia-settings to auto-apply ~/.nvidia<>ttings
[08:07] <jagginess> mN- , nvidia-settings
[08:07] <jagginess> mN- , or use nvidia-<tab><tab>
[08:07] <jagginess> mN- , it probably is in the menu
[08:07] <mN-> jagginess:  yea i was able to get 100hz from there instead of the 60hz
[08:07] <mN-> jagginess:  but not 120hz
[08:08] <jagginess> mN-, see if there are edid errors, maybe you have a long cable that isnt very good
[08:08] <jagginess> mN-, (/var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:08] <jagginess> )
[08:08] <the_dark_knight> wols: jagginess, I can solve it by cron but I don't like the option of monitoring at least per minute.
[08:08] <kristenbb> Can someone please help me regarding my issue with the nvidia driver ? The system fails to boot properly, and says 'the system is running in low graphics mode. your screen, graphics card, and input device settings, could not be detected correctly, you need to configure them yourself'
[08:09] <jagginess> the_dark_knight, well you can show your #python script and people may suggest the best way to overcome and premature freeze/etc..
[08:09] <jagginess> the_dark_knight, if it's a buggy script then you'd expect it to be very problematic with anything starting it
[08:10] <wols> the_dark_knight: I just gave you pseudocode above
[08:11] <polp> MBR problem while installing OS .Plz Help me !
[08:11] <jagginess> polp, pop in boot-repair iso , it'll work after click click
[08:11] <jagginess> pop it
[08:11] <jagginess> pop it
[08:11] <the_dark_knight> jagginess: do you know anything about respawn. there has to be a way other than cron. I mean mysqld is like what I wanted.
[08:11] <the_dark_knight> wols: which pseudocode?
[08:11] <mN-> jagginess:  there are but more like warning regarding my usb keyboard and mouse
[08:12] <polp> jagginess: ? , plz explain it clearly
[08:12] <jagginess> mN-, do you get anything saying 120Hz detected?
[08:12] <savio> is extras.ubuntu.com is down ?
[08:12] <jagginess> polp, google "boot-repair iso" download that iso from sourceforge and boot with it.. it's very easy to use
[08:12] <jagginess> polp, you know how to burn an .iso right?
[08:13] <juniour> hi
[08:13] <kristenbb> Can someone please help me regarding my issue with the nvidia driver ? The system fails to boot properly, and says 'the system is running in low graphics mode. your screen, graphics card, and input device settings, could not be detected correctly, you need to configure them yourself'
[08:13] <irong33k> i have problem with ubuntu 12.10
[08:13] <wols> jagginess: his MBR problems are with windows 7, with ubuntu he has "can't read from CD" issues
[08:13] <polp> jagginess:  ok !
[08:13] <wols> kristenbb: nvidia-settings
[08:13] <jagginess> oh well that boot-repair has been said it can fix windows problems too, but i never did use it for that
[08:14] <kristenbb> wols: yes?
[08:14] <jagginess> polp, maybe your cd drive is poop .. it's easy to make a usb ubuntu-installer with pendrive's usb universal maker
[08:14] <wols> kristenbb: run it
[08:14] <kristenbb> wols: done
[08:14] <wols> polp: did you check your CD integrity as I told you?
[08:14] <polp> jagginess: can i use LIVE USB ubuntu , to solve MBR problem
[08:15] <polp> wols:  yup ! but it don'r work
[08:15] <wols> !doesn't work | polp
[08:15] <jagginess> polp, if you can do usb-boot, you can use pendrive's usb maker for the boot-repair iso probably.. (i'll check)
[08:15] <cuore_> hey .. it's my my third day . in linux ! is there any channel for newbies ? :p
[08:16] <wols> cuore_: not a particular one. but we're happy to help with any ubuntu problems. there is also ##linux
[08:16] <jagginess> polp, there's an option of 'Try unlisted iso' with pendrive usb maker..
[08:16] <kristenbb> wols: so I did open it, but what am I to do with it?
[08:17] <wols> kristenbb: I won't hand hold and force feed
[08:17] <polp> wols:  actually , while working on fedora , i accidently copied my MBR on my fedora using dd command
[08:17] <savio> apt-get update fails
[08:17] <jagginess> polp, the ubuntu-live may have the boot-repair app contained in it.. dunno
[08:17] <wols> kristenbb: if you are unable to use a GUI program, you need to take a beginners course at your local community college
[08:17] <kristenbb> wols: I'm sorry I have a ubuntu problem, my system doesn't start, and I have no idea how to fix it, it's why I come here for help, I have no idea what to do?
[08:17] <savio> it says extras.ubuntu.com connection fail
[08:17] <polp> jagginess: d'nt worry jagginess  , i will try boot it
[08:18] <jagginess> polp, but why use a tool that's not safe? next time use boot-repair :)
[08:18] <the_dark_knight> wols: jagginess, somsip , what is wrong with this script http://www.bpaste.net/raw/I31h8yLK629ioNwgJ8ge/  . When I do start sample it gives " Unknown job error"
[08:18] <jagginess> polp, you sure there's a problem with either the drive or cd?
[08:18] <somsip> the_dark_knight: don't ask me.
[08:18] <kristenbb> wols: but why am I to do to make it work ? I don't know what to do, my system is broken.
[08:19] <polp> jagginess: i think  with hard disk , while installing OS using live USB ,MBR  Error : can't find where am i now
[08:20] <jagginess> the_dark_knight, i think it's more than that.. http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/
[08:20] <savio> here is past http://paste.ubuntu.com/1322876/
[08:20] <savio> apt-get update fails
[08:20] <cuore_> wols: thX .. and my first prb : i'm using ubuntu classic mode 11.04 with compiz .so if  i upgrade to 11.10 will i lose the compiz config ,.if not:will it work fine with ubuntu11.10?
[08:21] <crizis> compizconfig does work with 11.10
[08:21] <mN-> jagginess: do you think i can change refresh rate from " gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf " somehow
[08:21] <somsip> savio: looks like the site is down or your connection dropped. Can you access http://extras.ubuntu.com in a browser?
[08:21] <crizis> however, 11.10 migrates to gnome3.. and you should be better off upgrading straight to 12.04 at least :)
[08:21] <wols> savio: http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/extras.ubuntu.com
[08:22] <polp> cuore_: while upgrade , it'll simultaneously upgrade all packages including compiz .Don't worry .But i'm not sure which Desktop environment are you using .
[08:22] <savio> wols, somsip try to update apt-get
[08:23] <somsip> savio: the repo is down
[08:23] <polp> cuore_: in gnome 3 , compiz effect don't work .only support gnome 2 and unity
[08:23] <kristenbb> my problem is still not solved :(
[08:23] <savio> somsip, must be some stupid company hosting it
[08:24] <cuore_> polp: i'm in gnome 2
[08:24] <polp> wols: cuore_  so , go on . Ahha !
[08:24] <ServerSage> Hey folks, I have a mac mini with 12.04.  I use pm-suspend to put the little guy to sleep, and I would like to be able to wake him up with the remote.  I've set /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb*/power/wakeup to enabled.  No go.  Can anybody point me in the right direction?
[08:24] <jagginess> mN-, if you don't see 120Hz in the X log, you will never be able to get it
[08:25] <jagginess> mN-, pastebin your x log.. maybe it's there..
[08:25] <kristenbb> Can someone please help me regarding my issue with the nvidia driver ? The system fails to boot properly, and says 'the system is running in low graphics mode. your screen, graphics card, and input device settings, could not be detected correctly, you need to configure them yourself'
[08:25] <cuore_> crizis: polp : the update-manager indcate that i can upgrade to 11.1 not 12.04
[08:26] <crizis> well, yes, you gotta upgrade to 11.10 first.
[08:26] <jagginess> kristenbb, make sure kms is not disabled (if you didnt then see if the x log says nvidia driver is failing to load)
[08:26] <crizis> you can only skip versions when upgrading if you upgrade from lts to lts
[08:26] <wols> cuore_: correct. you can only update to the next ubuntu version or lts version and never skip versions in between
[08:26] <savio> !dkms
[08:27] <kristenbb> jagginess: I don't know how to interpret the x log, but I pastebined it. I don't know what 'kms' is.
[08:27] <cuore_> crizis: wols  thx guys  .. :)
[08:27] <polp> cuore_: well, i big suggestion from my side .Some time even if you upgrade , your compiz will not working correctly according to hardware .So, try to install fresh OS
[08:27] <Harry_123> hello
[08:28] <HieLo> hiii
[08:28] <Harry_123> route add default ???
[08:29] <cuore_> polp: what d u mean " fresh OS " ?
[08:29] <jagginess> Harry_123, you on the road with jack?
[08:29] <jagginess> cuore_, i think he means debian (*ouch)
[08:29] <polp> polp: ubuntu 12.10 OS
[08:30] <Harry_123> who jack?
[08:30] <jagginess> Harry_123, the song, hit the road jack,, as in route <> :)
[08:30] <jagginess> Harry_123, route add default "sing Hit the road jack"
[08:30] <savio> will dkms package solve recompling of vmware when kernel update
[08:31] <polp> jagginess: cuore_ : fresh OS means new .iso (to which you want to upgrade)
[08:31] <wols> savio: yes, that's what it does. if your VMWAre is DKMS aware
[08:31] <Harry_123> I want to add a single machine routing
[08:32] <jagginess> polp, are you using a live-linux?
[08:32] <Harry_123> <IP_ADDRESS> to ppp0. Vpn interface
[08:33] <mN-> jagginess:  here it is: http://pastebin.com/RUBBVhh4
[08:33] <kristenbb> Can someone please give me real help rather than incomprehensible tech words ? I am a total linux newbie and I just installed my system and I want my graphic card to work, and it doesn't.
[08:34] <wols> kristenbb: with your approach this won't ever work
[08:34] <Harry_123> clear
[08:34] <Harry_123> #clear
[08:34] <kristenbb> wols: with what approach?
[08:35] <jagginess> mN-, doesn't this look wrong "(--) RandR disabled" ? (can you post your xorg.conf too if you're using one?)
[08:35] <mN-> yeah ill post it
[08:35] <kristenbb> wols: I am lost, you told me to open a software but then didn't tell me what to do with it.
[08:35] <juniour> hi
[08:35] <juniour> hi
[08:35] <Harry_123> CLEAR
[08:35] <somsip> kristenbb: so let's try this...when you say the systems fails to boot properly, can you explain
[08:36] <jagginess> mN-, cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |xclip   , mid-mouse button pastes (can use pastebin if you want to do the whole thing)
[08:36] <wols> kristenbb: if you don't have any initiative of your own, it's the equivalent of a toddler sittind down, crying for mommy to force feed him. this won't work. if you don't want to act yourself, bring your comptuer to some expert and let them fix it for you
[08:36] <kristenbb> somsip: yes, sure. I mean that it does boot, but at one point it stops loading (the login screen doesn't appear), and instead a window appears and says:
[08:36] <gin-0range> gin-Orange
[08:37] <somsip> what version of ubuntu and what video card?
[08:37] <kristenbb> somsip: 'the system is running in low graphics mode. your screen, graphics card, and input device settings, could not be detected correctly, you need to configure them yourself'
[08:37] <jagginess> mN-, cat /etc/X11/xorg.org |xclip (and midmouse button pastes-- dont paste in here please)
[08:37] <djjeff> is it possible to get windows xp like blue scrollbars in ubuntu 12 using gtk3
[08:37] <wols> kristenbb: clicking on a GUI with a mouse is doesn't need an expert, doe sit?
[08:37] <somsip> kristenbb: what version of ubuntu and what video card?
[08:37] <jagginess> mN-, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |xclip (and midmouse button pastes-- dont paste in here please)
[08:37] <jagginess> mN-, (sudo apt-get install xclip  , if you wish)
[08:37] <kristenbb> somsip: the version is 12.04 and the video card is nvidia gtx 680
[08:38] <polp> jagginess: yes
[08:38] <somsip> kristenbb: is this a new install or did you make some changes to an existing install that broke something?
[08:39] <kristenbb> somsip: it's a new install, but I did try something to be able to take advantage of my video card. I went to the dash and typed 'additional drivers', and installed the first one (proprietary driver)
[08:39] <kristenbb> somsip: and after rebooting, that's when it stopped working
[08:39] <jagginess> mN-, comment out the horiz and vertrefresh lines, as well as line 57 and 58.. (use # at start of those 4 lines )
[08:40] <jagginess> mN-, we can try to use wide desktop setting later
[08:40] <mN-> ok
[08:41] <Ampersand> Hi everyone. I have a quick question: I've recently upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 and in the Software Sources preferences in the "Other Software" tab i have 3 disabled checkboxes with the mention "disabled on upgrade to quantal". My question is if this means that BEFORE the upgrade, they were enabled?
[08:42] <somsip> kristenbb: kristenbb this seems to be a comon issue and a number of solutions are given here. Have you tried any of these? http://askubuntu.com/questions/141606/how-to-fix-the-system-is-running-in-low-graphics-mode-error
[08:42] <mN-> jagginess:  what then? i wrote " # option "ster..."
[08:42] <bazhang> Ampersand, correct. probably PPA
[08:42] <lapion> from 12.04 on bluetooth is not being handled correctly
[08:42] <Jordan_U> Ampersand: Yes, third party repositories are always disabled as one of the first steps in upgrading.
[08:43] <Ampersand> and it's safe to re-enable them then?
[08:43] <Ampersand> yes, they're all PPAs (launchpad and dropbox)
[08:43] <ix_> can I install ubuntu from minimal iso on a pppoe connection?
[08:43] <jagginess> yeah.. disable the ppa's when upgrading.. you can rename the .list to a .list_dis
[08:43] <bazhang> Ampersand, check if there are PPA builds for 12.10
[08:43] <jagginess> (in the sources.d folder)
[08:43] <lapion> whenever I suspend/hibernate resume the bluetooth devices cannot reconnect
[08:43] <bazhang> jagginess, they are automatically disabled on version upgrade, so no need
[08:44] <Ampersand> sorry, could you tell me how to do that (check for PPA builds for 12.10) ?
[08:44] <bazhang> jagginess, did you mean sources.list.d ?
[08:44] <jagginess> bazhang, i dunno, i spent 3 hours a few days ago doing things like this.. you talking about upgrading from cd?
[08:44] <bazhang> Ampersand, just go to the PPA search page on launchpad
[08:44] <kristenbb> somsip: no I didn't. Am I to take the first answer ? It mentions it's only a 'workaround' but doesn't really solve the problem, is this my best option?
[08:45] <bazhang> jagginess, any upgrade will disable the PPA.
[08:45] <jagginess> bazhang, the upgrade failed upgrade.d (full instruction was followed, so i had to manually upgrade..)
[08:45] <kristenbb> somsip: and what is the problem anyway, why is it that installing a new driver would break the unity greeter?
[08:45] <somsip> kristenbb: reas through it and look for a solution that seems to fit with your particular problem. Some mention ATI video cards. These clearly do not apply to you. I see nothing in there that will break anything, and it's likely you will learn something in the process of working throguh these to see what works
[08:46] <lapion> the only way to solve it is to reboot or to restart X
[08:46] <bazhang> Ampersand, the easiest way is to look at the PPA name, then search that name/that package/PPA in a search engine to bring you to the page
[08:46] <Ampersand> I'm on the launchpad.net site right now. I have to search in the searchbox "private-ppa" ?
[08:46] <somsip> kristenbb: thuogh you could just reinstall nvidia-current, just in case that's an easy fix too
[08:47] <Ampersand> I'm not sure on what the name is
[08:47] <Ampersand> private-ppa.launchpad.net/comm
[08:47] <jagginess> mN-, i use 12.10, use ctl-alt-Fn
[08:47] <bazhang> Ampersand, or simply look at software sources and check the PPA name there.
[08:48] <Ampersand> ah, I see, ok, I'll do that, thank you
[08:48] <ix_> can I install ubuntu from minimal iso on a pppoe connection?
[08:48] <kristenbb> somsip: how can I do that?
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> hello all
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> i installed ubuntu along side with windows 7
[08:49] <kristenbb> somsip: I actually managed to get to unity using xinit. But if I try to install another driven, it says permission denied
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> but everytime when i log on pc
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> i cant get any option to
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> boot ubuntu
[08:49] <somsip> kristenbb: in a terminal, sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-current
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> everytime
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> windows opening
[08:49] <sdfdafadfsadad> whats wrong with me?
[08:49] <FloodBot1> sdfdafadfsadad: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:49] <jagginess> mN-, yeah
[08:50] <Ampersand> and I have one more Q abouit the PPAs: is any PPA that's listed on the launchpad site safe? I mean, I do read a lot of articles on various websites, recommending to install various software from PPAs, but to check if they're indeed safe, it's enough that they're listed on launchpad that being an indication that it's safe?
[08:50] <sdfdafadfsadad> can anyone help me?
[08:50] <somsip> !PPA | Ampersand
[08:51] <Ampersand> an, I see... so, to ensure 100% safety, no PPAs should be used ;))
[08:51] <somsip> Ampersand: that's the official line
[08:51] <Ampersand> I see
[08:51] <Ampersand> ok, thanks a lot for your help
[08:52] <kristenbb> somsip: I tried reinstalling it, and rebooted, the error is still the same
[08:53] <somsip> kristenbb: and...? What will you do next?
[08:53] <magn3ts> Why does GTK3 think that it is above xmodmap?
[08:53] <magn3ts>  /scowl
[08:54] <kristenbb> somsip: well i don't know? I think it's interesting to try to install another driver, but it says i don't have the rights. How can I change that?
[08:54] <somsip> kristenbb: you could try doning what I suggested and looking at the webpage I found for you. If you want to install drivers, use sudo apt-get in a terminal
[08:55] <kristenbb> somsip: sudo apt-get followed by what? I wanted to use the gui called 'additionnal drivers', but I can't change the 'current version' that is selected
[08:56] <somsip> kristenbb: no idea. I don't use that
[08:56] <ak5> can someone tell me how upstart compares to systemd and/or link me to some nice docs?
[08:56] <somsip> kristenbb: sudo apt-get install {driver} if you want to do it the CLI way
[08:56] <kristenbb> somsip: {driver} being the driver's name, right? but how to know its name?
[08:57] <somsip> kristenbb: you said you wanted to install something. You must know the  something you want to install
[08:59] <kristenbb> somsip: no, not its exact name, I just said maybe it was worth a try to install other drivers, given that this one doesn't seem to work. But i don't know the other drivers names
[08:59] <Kartagis> I installed xen, and booted into xen kernel. however when I want to go back to the other kernel, it says "/bin/sh: libc6.so: no such file file or directory" or such. how do I fix that?
[09:00] <somsip> kristenbb: then maybe follow some instructions from other people who have solved this. On the website. That I gave you before.  Why not try some possible fixes from people who have BTDT
[09:01] <mN-> How to get 120hz in ubuntu?
[09:02] <kristenbb> somsip: because they themself said it was not a solution, just a workaround, so I wanted to try it last..
[09:02] <kristenbb> somsip: but ok i'll try it
[09:02] <williamherry> ubuntu one is very slow, is there any log or some that I can find what's ubuntu one going on?
[09:03] <somsip> kristenbb: you read one fix. Look at the others.
[09:04] <mN-> How to get 120hz in ubuntu?
[09:04] <kristenbb> somsip: which one? none was selected has being the answer  to the question, and I don't want to break it even more...
[09:05] <kristenbb> somsip: should I try the second solution then?
[09:05] <somsip> kristenbb: And that's me done. Good luck
[09:06] <Iceman_B> hoy
[09:07] <Iceman_B> How can I configure dhclient to keep requesting a lease until the end of time, on a reboot?
[09:08] <kristenbb> somsip: this linux thing is not easy, there are not these problems with Windows. i am trying really hard to fix it, but I'm not as good as you, sorry.
[09:08] <kristenbb> thanks for trying anyway
[09:08] <Kartagis> I installed xen, and booted into xen kernel. however when I want to go back to the other kernel, it says "/bin/sh: libc6.so: no such file file or directory" or such. how do I fix that?
[09:10] <ikonia> Kartagis: sounds like you did more than install the xen kernel
[09:10] <ikonia> sounds like a lot has changed
[09:10] <ikonia> or you've deleted glibc
[09:10] <anarchy911_> hi
[09:11] <anarchy911_> hello
[09:11] <ikonia> you said that
[09:11] <Kartagis> heh, dpkg-query -l glib* says "un" for glibc-2.13-1
[09:11] <anarchy911_> sorry i'm new here
[09:12] <anarchy911_> and i'm french
[09:12] <herpp> nice name anarchy911
[09:12] <kristenbb> How can I change the driver of my graphic card ? If I go to 'additional drivers' and choose a new one, it says 'permission denied'.
[09:12] <anarchy911_> tanks
[09:13] <blazemore> kristenbb: Is there a fuller error message that comes up when you run "jockey" from the Terminal?
[09:15] <Kartagis> thanks ikonia, now to reboot
[09:15] <anarchy911_> herpp i'm new here
[09:15] <kristenbb> blazemore: no, but using sudo before solved it, thanks. I'm downloading a new driver, the one I had was not working. I hope it will solve my issue
[09:17] <blazemore> How can I use a keyring manager on Openbox?
[09:18] <blazemore> So I don't have to type my ssh passphrase every time
[09:18] <ak5> blazemore: is there any good keyring password manager?
[09:18] <blazemore> ak5: That's what I'm asking
[09:18] <ak5> Oh, so you don't have one in mind?
[09:18] <ak5> I create ssh keys with passphrase and then have them in .ssh/config
[09:18] <ak5> sorry, without passphrase
[09:18] <Touhou44> You can use GNOME keyring without the rest of GNOME
[09:19] <pabu> hi
[09:19] <blazemore> I need an ssh passphrase in case my key is stolen
[09:19] <mN-> Why cant I login into tty1... with my username?
[09:19] <blazemore> I just want it to be unlocked when I log in
[09:19] <blazemore> mN-: Because you're typing your username and/or password wrong
[09:20] <mN-> blazemore: if my username is Donkey Kong and pw lol
[09:20] <mN-> and i type both in and nothing happends, incorrect password
[09:20] <blazemore> mN-: Usernames don't usually have spaces in
[09:20] <blazemore> What's the output of "whoami" on a terminal?
[09:20] <mN-> blazemore: ah okay thanks :P
[09:21] <mN-> it works now, didnt know about the space thing
[09:21] <vivid> is +1 up and running yet?
[09:22] <blazemore> mN-: Your actual username is different from the "Full Name" or "real name" on the account
[09:22] <Spazz_Attak> hi, i am new to ubuntu and opensource.
[09:22] <mN-> blazemore: yeah.. jagginess told me im an idiot and quit when i said i cant login with Donkey Kong :<
[09:22] <Spazz_Attak> how can one contribute to the whole scene?
[09:22] <ikonia> !contribute | Spazz_Attak
[09:23] <pabu> Has anyone experience in ubuntu on lenovo R500 an the use of fingerprint / card-reader etc.?
[09:23] <blazemore> Spazz_Attak: Use Ubuntu until you know how to do stuff, then lurk in here helping people
[09:23] <Spazz_Attak> as in where do i begin? and what do i need to know?
[09:23] <ikonia> Spazz_Attak: read the URL ubottu just sent
[09:23] <vivid> Spazz_Attak, read the links provided.  then tinker and report
[09:23] <Kartagis> ikonia: sorry it was libc.so.6. I did a apt-file search libc.so.6 and found out that it's provided by libc6, and dpkg-query -l libc6 says ii
[09:23] <Kartagis> I get kernel panic
[09:23] <ikonia> Kartagis: yes, that's glibc
[09:24] <Spazz_Attak> cool
[09:25] <pabu> Has anyone experience in ubuntu on lenovo R500 an the use of fingerprint / card-reader etc.?
[09:26] <Kartagis> ikonia: so, what to do?
[09:26] <john> e\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\||||\\\\\\\
[09:26] <ikonia> Kartagis: your system is broken you are missing core libc libraries
[09:26] <Spazz_Attak> \quit
[09:26] <ikonia> Kartagis: you need to work out what you've done to remove it
[09:27] <blazemore> I'm trying to open port 873 but it's not working - I ran "/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 873 -j ACCEPT"
[09:27] <blazemore> But telnet <IP_ADDRESS> 873 from another machine shows "No route to host"
[09:27] <Kartagis> !xen | ikonia This is the only thing I've followed
[09:28] <john> hello
[09:28] <herpp> helo sir
[09:28] <blazemore> How did you manage the name "john"? I'm impressed
[09:29] <_cronus_> Kartagis, it is also provided by libc-xen, which is a dependency of xen-hypervisor. maybe it has something to do with library load path
[09:29] <john> not sure lol
[09:29] <mN-> Yay I fixed  it, I have 120hz now!
[09:29] <blazemore> mN-: Were you asking about that yesterday?
[09:30] <mN-> yeah
[09:30] <ikonia> Kartagis: I suspect you have made a mistake somewhere or not seen somethin on screen
[09:31] <mN-> blazemore: They only helped me get nvidia-settings. but it worked after I modified xorg.conf saying 1680_1050_100 to 1680_1050_120, and then in tty1 just sudo service stop lightdm; service start lightdm
[09:31] <Kartagis> _cronus_: libc6-xen is also installed
[09:31] <mN-> so thanks to you too blazemore ^_^
[09:31] <blazemore> sudo service stop lightdm? Does that work
[09:31] <blazemore> I assumed it was sudo service lightdm stop
[09:32] <mN-> yeah i meant that
[09:32] <mN-> misspelled
[09:33] <Kartagis> I have a /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6, if that helps
[09:33] <ikonia> Kartagis: are you using 32bit ?
[09:33] <Kartagis> yes
[09:33] <ikonia> Kartagis: ok, so you are probably missing a symlink to /lib
[09:33] <_cronus_> Kartagis, yes, that's what i mean. there are 2 libc.so.6 files in your system. maybe it tries to load the wrong one. ldd /bin/bash may give you a hint which one it tries to load.
[09:34] <Kartagis> ikonia: from where?
[09:34] <ikonia> Kartagis: think about it
[09:34] <ikonia> Kartagis: what you've got and what I'v ejust said
[09:35] <Kartagis> _cronus_: it tries to load /lib/i386-linux-gnu/tls/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6, which I also have
[09:35] <mN-> blazemore:  instead of Option "metamodes" "1680x1050_120 +0+0; nvidia-auto-select +0+0", I just wrote Option         "metamodes" "1680x1050_120 +0+0"
[09:35] <mN-> . I hope it stays after reboot, too
[09:36] <_cronus_> Kartagis, you are running the xen-enabled kernel when you run this command right?
[09:36] <Kartagis> _cronus_: I've just thought that
[09:36] <berdy> Hey guys! Has anyone figured out a good way to get Beats speakers on a laptop working with Ubuntu?
[09:37] <DJ_U|Laptop> Mornin' all.  :)
[09:37] <blazemore> berdy: Surely they'd just work? It would depend on the audio interface not the speakers
[09:37] <berdy> I have an HP Pavillion dv7 with two main Beats speakers, two regular by the touch pad, and a "sub" that's beats
[09:37] <berdy> blazemore, they don't
[09:37] <berdy> sound quality is shit
[09:37] <berdy> just using the two upfront that aren't beats
[09:37] <blazemore> inb4 "That's because they're Beats"
[09:37] <_cronus_> Kartagis, try sudo ldconfig
[09:38] <berdy> blazemore, so is there no solution for it yet?
[09:38] <blazemore> berdy: echo "options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf > /dev/null
[09:38] <blazemore> yes lenovo
[09:39] <berdy> then, do I restart?
[09:39] <berdy> Or log out and back in again?
[09:39] <DJ_U|Laptop> Do you folks discuss Kubuntu here or is there another channel for that?
[09:39] <Kartagis> _cronus_: do I do anything else afterwards?
[09:39] <blazemore> This one is more active DJ_U|Laptop , and a lot of problems aren't specific to KDE
[09:40] <DJ_U|Laptop> roger, thanks.  :)
[09:40] <blazemore> So ask your question and if #kubuntu would be more appropriate someone will say so
[09:41] <berdy> blazemore, do I need to restart anything now?
[09:41] <DJ_U|Laptop> Well, the one issue I have isn't specific to KDE, it seems to be the display/backlight.  it's a known issue though it seems.
[09:41] <blazemore> berdy: yes reboot
[09:41] <_cronus_> Kartagis, reboot to your previous kernel.
[09:41] <Kartagis> brb
[09:42] <DJ_U|Laptop> pretty sure it's related to the GMA4500M display adapter I have.

[09:54] <Kartagis> _cronus_: yes and yes
[09:54] <jgfarnden> Hey there I have ubuntu 12.10 and I was trying to get hybrid graphics to work I've followed all the tutorials on getting it to work since I had it working on 12.04. I can't even get it to work on 12.10 and then I have to go and erase the xorg.conf for it to load lightdm but unity fails to load.
[09:55] <berdy> blazemore, still not working right
[09:55] <jgfarnden> I have a Samsung Chronos 7 Series 15.6" model
[09:56] <blazemore> berdy: Sorry then, I don't know
[09:56] <_cronus_> Kartagis, sorry, i can't think of anything else. :(
[09:56] <Kartagis> _cronus_: what causes a kernel panic?
[09:56] <berdy> Anyone else successfully configure their beats laptop speakers/
[09:56] <berdy> ?
[09:56] <jgfarnden> Well
[09:57] <jgfarnden> There's a android app for beats audio
[09:57] <jgfarnden> That's all I know
[09:57] <berdy> My HTC One X has that. But this is an HP Pavillion
[09:57] <hsnmck> Hi, I'm using ubuntu 12.04 and my computer is getting stuck in the splash screen when I'm trying to shutting it down (it didn't use to do this).. I would like to investigate to know what is going on, so where can I find the shut down's logs? thanks
[09:58] <_cronus_> Kartagis, an invalid kernel state usually
[09:58] <jgfarnden> hsnmck: Try holding shift
[09:58] <jgfarnden> when booting
[09:58] <jgfarnden> you'll get the recovery menu
[09:58] <_cronus_> Kartagis, which means... anything out of the ordinary
[09:59] <hsnmck> jgfarnden, is there logs there?
[09:59] <savio> hsnmck, in logviewer go for sys.log
[09:59] <jgfarnden> I'm pretty sure there is
[09:59] <savio> dmesg
[09:59] <jgfarnden> Theres that too
[09:59] <jgfarnden> xD
[09:59] <outofhand> hi, can someone help me please , i Updated to ubuntu 12.10 , problem is every 20 sec when idle my screen goes black . i have disabled it in settings, but still does the same thing
[10:00] <the_dark_knight> please somebody answer this - http://askubuntu.com/questions/210440/for-processes-to-be-up-and-running-all-the-time
[10:01] <DJ_U|Laptop> good night/day all.
[10:01] <rsv> blazemore:  it worked!
[10:02] <rsv> now, i have a launcher which is oriented vertically, how can i make it orient horizontally. this is in 12.04
[10:04] <LeMike> hello. LN across directories doesn't work here. I have to be in the directory where the link will go and use "ln -s ../../target link-foo". why could that be?
[10:04] <stevechch> ust submitted a "Show HN" at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4726827 - let me know what you think of the concept - and feel free to sign up
[10:04] <blazemore> rsv: What do you mean "a launcher which is oriented vertically"
[10:04] <rsv> blazemore: i mean it has all the icons "dash, home, browser..."
[10:05] <Kartagis> the_dark_knight: @reboot
[10:05] <blazemore> rsv: That's the Unity launcher
[10:05] <outofhand> anyone ?
[10:05] <rsv> blazemore: the vertical bar on your left
[10:05] <blazemore> You can't configure it
[10:05] <blazemore> I know right
[10:05] <Kartagis> the_dark_knight: also check ps x output
[10:05] <rsv> blazemore: i dont know how to, i clicked all over it
[10:05] <rsv> it doesnt work
[10:05] <blazemore> You *can't* configure it
[10:05] <blazemore> That is it, all it can do is launch applications
[10:05] <MestreLion> I currently have thunderbird set to use my ISP's SMTP server to send emails. Is it possible to configure command-line email programs to do the same?
[10:06] <Muelli> sure MestreLion. you could use ssmtp or a fully fledged postfix or exim
[10:06] <jgfarnden> I've seen the horizontal launcher on google
[10:06] <rsv> blazemore: i want it to run from the bottom of my desktop rather than on the left. it occupies too much space
[10:06] <Touhou44> MestreLion: Naturally, I recommend mutt
[10:06] <arkiver> I saw in someone's yakuake, there were some indicators at the bottom which displayed temperature, processor clock for each core and user name, ip etc. Can anyone tell me what needs to be added to get that ?
[10:06] <blazemore> rsv: You can't
[10:06] <MestreLion> for "command-line email programs" i mean tools like mail or sendmail (or whatever MTA/MUAs are common in Ubuntu/Linux world)
[10:07] <rsv> blazemore: okay
[10:07] <blazemore> rsv: Install XFCE or KDE if you want a more usable and configurable desktop
[10:07] <Touhou44> Funny how the Unity dock is less configurable than the Mac one
[10:07] <llutz> MestreLion: use ssmtp/msmtp/nullmailer
[10:07] <lapion> anyone having any problems with suspend/hibernate-> resume and bluetooth ?
[10:07] <rsv> blazemore: so right now ubuntu runs what? gnome
[10:07] <llutz> MestreLion: example http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/10/21/sending-email-from-your-system-with-ssmtp/
[10:08] <MestreLion> Muelli / llutz: any of these tools will allow command line emails to automatically use my ISP's SMPT ?
[10:08] <blazemore> rsv: A Linux-Centipede of Gnome, QT and custom stuff
[10:08] <Muelli> MestreLion: yes
[10:08] <llutz> MestreLion: thats what they're made for
[10:08] <MestreLion> nice, thanks!
[10:08] <uff> hi
[10:08] <rsv> blazemore: it looks good!
[10:09] <berdy> I'm having the same problem this person posted about: http://askubuntu.com/questions/205375/beats-audio-4-speakers-subwoofer-not-working-on-dv7-6165us-and-ubuntu-12-04
[10:10] <berdy> any one here have thoughts on it?
[10:10] <jacta> Have anyone a Western digital live box or such, and know if itsp ossible to stream movies to it directly
[10:11] <stevechc_>  Just submitted a "Show HN" at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4726827 - let me know what you think - and feel free to join up
[10:14] <llutz> stevechc_: do you have any ubuntu support related question?
[10:14] <arkiver> It was byobu
[10:16] <MestreLion> Muelli: llutz : what about maildir / mbox /mail / mailtools ? I'm not sure how these are related to command line emailing, or how they "interoperate" with ssmtp

[10:16] <tdlguik1c> ysonmymindlarryphotoshopiwoalsojimaking
[10:16] <stevechc_> Yes, lluttz, what do you think of this concept as a way of learning to admin your Ubuntu servers?
[10:16] <Muelli> MestreLion: if you only want to send email, don't bother with all this. use sstmp and make your mail client send mails to the ssmtp server spawned on localhost
[10:16] <llutz> !ot | stevechc_
[10:17] <nopcall> ls
[10:17] <dr_willis> file not found
[10:18] <stevechc_> Ok. fair enuff!
[10:18] <MestreLion> Muelli: hummm... so ssmtp creates an smtp server at localhost? so I could set up thunderbird to localhost? wow...
[10:19] <MestreLion> I wasn't planning on chaning tb's config... I would at first just copy its smtp settings to whatever solution you pointed... but "localhost" is quite tempting :)
[10:20] <MestreLion> does that also mean that *any* software that tries to send email through localhost will now work? :D
[10:20] <Muelli> oh, wait a second MestreLion. ssmtp doesn't spawn a server. You would have to make postfix or exim to do that.  ssmtp is "only" a program to send mails via a relay
[10:20] <Muelli> and yes, it's a bit messy. Even in 2012.
[10:20] <sdfdafadfsadad> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1323099/
[10:20] <sdfdafadfsadad> can  anyone help me?
[10:21] <llutz> MestreLion: be carefull, ssmtp does not queue mails. you don't want this for more than just systemmails
[10:22] <Haris> what's the url to the netboot for 11.10 ?
[10:22] <MestreLion> sdfdafadfsadad: you may need to restore grub. follow here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/27155
[10:22] <Haris> is it -> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz
[10:22] <iceroot> Haris: no
[10:22] <_cronus_> Kartagis, i thought of something else. there is a link in /lib/ld-linux.so.2 that points to the library loader.
[10:23] <Haris> its http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz
[10:23] <iceroot> Haris: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz
[10:23] <iceroot> Haris: if you want the i386 version
[10:23] <MestreLion> llutz: what is queueing useful for?
[10:23] <iceroot> Haris: and why not 12.04 or 12.10?
[10:23] <sdfdafadfsadad> MestreLion: i cant go to ubuntu how to "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/UBUNTU /dev/sda " ?
[10:24] <MestreLion> sdfdafadfsadad: using a live cd / usb
[10:24] <sdfdafadfsadad> ok i have windows 7 already
[10:24] <llutz> MestreLion: if the receiving smtp-server is not reachable, a "real" (queueing) mailserver tries to deliver the mails later, ssmtp won't - it drops the mail
[10:24] <sdfdafadfsadad> MestreLion: now i put ubuntu boot cd then what should i do?
[10:24] <MestreLion> sdfdafadfsadad: I mean an *Ubuntu* Live CD/USB boot
[10:25] <Haris> the one wanting this box wants 11.10 specifically
[10:25] <Lartza> In addition to the Trash problem, PCManFM doesn't automount removables!
[10:25] <Lartza> Yayyy for logind etc...
[10:25] <rcspam> Hi, how to make so that the  fullscreen in flash application (youtube, dailymotion,...) working correctly, thanks !
[10:25] <Kartagis> _cronus_: /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -> i386-linux-gnu/ld-2.15.so
[10:25] <MestreLion> llutz: does it generate any log / error message when dropping? I'd be fine with that
[10:25] <hateball> rcspam: How is it *not* working correctly right now? That is, what is the actual issue?
[10:26] <MestreLion> sdfdafadfsadad: do you know how to burn a CD and boot using it?
[10:26] <llutz> MestreLion: iirc it logs to syslog, yes
[10:26] <sdfdafadfsadad> MestreLion: yes even i installed ubuntu already on D
[10:26] <sdfdafadfsadad> but i cant log on ubuntu
[10:27] <rcspam> hateball, when i press on te fullscreen icon, nothing appens, no fullscreen !!
[10:27] <MestreLion> sdfdafadfsadad: you will be able to log to your ubuntu hdd install after you boot the live cd and carefully follow those instructions I gave you
[10:28] <hateball> rcspam: Are you using Adobe Flash in Firefox? What graphics chipset/driver are you using?
[10:28] <sdfdafadfsadad> MestreLion: should i choose try ubuntu? or which option after boot cd?
[10:28] <Haris> I have this in ks file -> d-i mirror/http/hostname string <IP_ADDRESS>:80
[10:29] <MestreLion> sdfdafadfsadad: yes, "try Ubuntu", so it boots you to a live session, where you can use nautilus, gparted an dterminal to follow the directions
[10:29] <Haris> what do I set d-i mirror/http/directory string <- to ?
[10:29] <bar_> Hello
[10:30] <sdfdafadfsadad> ok lemmecheck
[10:30] <bar_> Is this the place to ask for help with xubuntu?
[10:30] <rcspam> hateball, nv9800gt firefox and chromium
[10:30] <bar_> Is this the place to ask for help with xubuntu?
[10:30] <guang_> where i can find gstreamer document on my pc?
[10:31] <bekks> bar_: Yes.
[10:31] <rcspam> hateball,  last driver nv 304.60
[10:31] <Kartagis> I guess I'm stuck with the xen kernel ;)
[10:32] <bar_> Well, I just recently installed xubuntu on my system, and I keep getting crash reports
[10:32] <bar_> Everything seems to crash here, I don't know why though.. is it just me?
[10:33] <bar_> Like, I get "Sorry, the program java closed unexpectedly" or, "Sorry, Ubuntu 12.04 has experienced an internal error"
[10:33] <dr_willis> or its just a single report thats nit gettung cleared out bar_
[10:33] <vpmurdan> Hi. I am trying to configure two gateways in ubuntu.  Any simple script available?
[10:34] <dr_willis> that is odd...
[10:34] <znnztg> hi
[10:34] <bar_> dr_willis: I see an internal error with a package named: xfce4-panel, the problemType: Crash
[10:35] <rcspam> hateball, am i alone with this bug ?
[10:36] <bekks> vpmurdan: You cant configure two gateways expecting things to work at all.
[10:36] <bekks> vpmurdan: IP expects one default gateway only.
[10:36] <hateball> rcspam: Probably not, I just wanted to get some more details from you, if anyone else has any idea. I don't run nvidia myself so I don't know of any specific issues there. Are you using 32-bit or 64-bit?
[10:37] <rcspam> hateball, 64-bits
[10:37] <hateball> rcspam: with native 64-bit flash or the nsplugin-wrapper?
[10:37] <dr_willis> bar_: is it crashing often.  or are you just seeing a report message?
[10:37] <rcspam> hateball, 64-bit flash
[10:38] <bar_> It's not just that dr_willis, everytime i turn my computer on it gives me a different crash report..
[10:38] <bar_> dr_willis: I'm not sure if it's crashing often or not, I'll close this message and see if I get any more of those reports

[10:40] <dr_willis> id have to suggest running memtest for a while to verify ram. and a good  cleaning. and test with a live cd or usb to try to narrow it diwn bar_
[10:40] <MestreLion> llutz / Muelli: I've installed ssmtp and it looks like this is indeed exactly what I need. But it's curious that, since it is not a daemon or require sudo, it does not have a per-user config file..
[10:40] <hateball> rcspam: It's been a long time since I used that myself. Does that actually use 64-bit now? It used to grab the 32-bit flash
[10:41] <Muelli> heh MestreLion. Feel free to patch it ;-)
[10:41] <hateball> rcspam: running "file /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so" in a terminal should tell if it's 32-bit or 64-bit anyhow
[10:41] <bar_> dr_willis: I tried the live cd and got these issues too , I thought installing it would help it work better, but I'll try to run memtest
[10:41] <bar_> dr_willis:Where do I get it though?
[10:41] <dr_willis> its on the boot menu of the live cd somewhere
[10:42] <rcspam> hateball, i use 64-bit
[10:42] <MestreLion> Muelli: I probally will... its usually not hard to. But I wonder... I'm sure i'm not the first one to ask / want this, so why its not done already? It looks like a very popular package (and oh, btw, thank you guys!!!!)
[10:42] <inhies> anyone have any experience with the battery indicator for gnome?
[10:42] <inhies> mine shows that im alwas fully charged, which is definetely not the case
[10:43] <guang_> how to ctags in the directory "/usr/include"? Direct "ctag -R *"  command can not refer all function
[10:43] <Muelli> MestreLion: *shrug* don't know. I don't think it's a very highly demanded feature. If you have separate SMTP servers for separate users, you probably have a bigger installation and then run your own MTA anyway.
[10:43] <MestreLion> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=181315
[10:43] <hateball> rcspam: Well ok, then I guess it might be something with the nvidia driver or some such. I have no issues with 64-bit flash + intel.... so maybe someone else here knows more
[10:43] <C0r0c0tta> Hola
[10:44] <MestreLion> From 2003
[10:44] <administrator__> !
[10:45] <rcspam> hateball, thanks, this appens since several distribution, perhaps a card problem
[10:45] <bar_> Thanks for your help dr_willis
[10:46] <MestreLion> Muelli: even using the same smtp server for all users (say, gmail), their auth settings are surely personal... and it looks a bit awkward to set up a personal password in /etc
[10:46] <Muelli> MestreLion: I agree. But it's probably not meant to be configured with a "personal" SMTP server. Rather the ones from your ISP. Or college. Or company.
[10:48] <rcspam> hateball, fullscreen is working with troubles in youtube html5 ... so thank i think it's probaly a hardware problem
[10:48] <MestreLion> but my ISP's smtp (and I guess many college's and company's too) require login and password to send emails
[10:48] <hateball> rcspam: ok
[10:50] <bar_> Another question to you guys, how do I know if my graphics driver is currently active?
[10:50] <bar_> And not the default thing, but nvidia
[10:51] <gbili> hello, I'm sorry to ask this here, but is there a way to make sql like table join with google search. make a search like "asus motherboard" RIGHT JOIN "all electronics business in town", which would translate as "for each business in town, search asus motherboard site:<business-in-town.com>"
[10:53] <dr_willis> bar_: run nvidia-settings  is one way
[10:53] <vpmurdan> @bekks: Thks . may be I should use two pcs as routers and group my users in two groups
[10:54] <jonjo> hello
[10:54] <evilmoo> hi!
[10:54] <bar_> dr_willis I'm sorry for my lack of knowledge, but how would I run that?
[10:54] <bekks> vpmurdan: Or use a routing solution that implements load balancing and metrics.
[10:54] <jonjo> I have installed ubuntu 12.04 on my server and the keyboard does not work correcltly as user but does as sudo
[10:54] <bar_> Oh nevermind, got it
[10:55] <sadasdasdas> MestreLion: hey there, thanks i finally installed ubuntu however i set password 12345 at the time of install
[10:55] <evilmoo> jonjo: how does it behave incorrectly?
[10:55] <jonjo> tab, direction arrowsdont work
[10:55] <sadasdasdas> but one thing is numpad key is not working
[10:56] <evilmoo> jonjo: console or X?
[10:56] <jonjo> ^[[C^[[D^[[A^[[B
[10:56] <jonjo> console
[10:56] <sadasdasdas> MestreLion: i tried sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras to install codec, but when terminal asking my password i cant type 12345
[10:56] <jonjo> its a server without x
[10:56] <MestreLion> sadasdasdas: have you tried using NumLock key?  :P
[10:57] <sadasdasdas> yes
[10:57] <evilmoo> jonjo: do they not work at all, or produce other characters?
[10:57] <jonjo> other characters
[10:57] <vpmurdan> df
[10:57] <jonjo> ^[[C^[[D^[[A^[[B << like that
[10:57] <vpmurdan> ooops
[10:57] <sadasdasdas> MestreLion: not only numpad key i cant type number anywhere on terminal
[10:58] <evilmoo> jonjo: try "stty reset"?
[10:58] <dr_willis> tthose look like escape  codes.
[10:59] <MestreLion> sadasdasdas: this is very weird, and I have no idea. But you can always boot using the recovery mode and change this password to something more meaningful
[10:59] <jonjo> reset is an invalid argument
[10:59] <evilmoo> jonjo: try "echo $SHELL" as the user?
[11:00] <jonjo> /bin/sh
[11:00] <MestreLion> sh? should be bash...
[11:00] <evilmoo> jonjo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6997842&postcount=3
[11:01] <evilmoo> jonjo: carefully edit your password file and change "/bin/sh" to "/bin/bash" for the line with your user name no it
[11:01] <evilmoo> er... user name on it
[11:01] <dr_willis> jonjo:  is this a vpn , vps or other unusual setup?
[11:01] <dr_willis> you can use the 'chsh' command to set the defsault shell. no needc to edit the file directly
[11:02] <evilmoo> oops
[11:02] <jonjo> dedicated server
[11:02] <evilmoo> sorry, yeah, use chsh
[11:02] <dr_willis> so its a normal ubuntu server install you did to a desktop machine?

[11:12] <kristenbb> hi, I have a problem with my graphics card. I tried installing the property driver, but now I can't get to the log in screen
[11:12] <m000gle> I notice, every so often, that my Ubuntu 12.04 running Gnome-Shell will switch from the default GNOME on-screen display to NotifyOSD bubbles ... This appears to be a bug, but does anyone know of a way to make this change permanent?
[11:15] <kristenbb> can someone help me please with my driver issue ?
[11:15] <py_can> Hello, my cpu fan speed is driving me crazy, I was wondering if there was any way to make it go slower ( cpu temp is 20c ). Desktop pc.. Asus p5w dh deluxe motherboard.
[11:18] <dr_willis> kristenbb:  good idea to menttion your chipset when asking graphic issue questions
[11:18] <kristenbb> dr_willis: maybe i'd be eassier to mention it if i knew what it is :)
[11:19] <kristenbb> dr_willis: where can i find this info?
[11:19] <dr_willis> so you 'tried installing the driver' and you dont know what the card is? what did you try to install exactly?
[11:19] <dr_willis> lspci    should mention your video card.
[11:19] <kristenbb> dr_willis: I have a nvidia gtx 680 card, does that answer the 'chipset' question?
[11:20] <dr_willis> kristenbb:  so you have installed the 'nvidia-current' package?
[11:20] <kristenbb> dr_willis: yes I have
[11:20] <kristenbb> dr_willis: and even since, it fails to load the desktop properly
[11:20] <dr_willis> i seem to recall seeing '68' and nvidia issues befor. but never had one.
[11:20] <kristenbb> dr_willis: and ever* since, it fails to load the desktop properly
[11:21] <dr_willis> what does it do exactly? does the login screen work?
[11:21] <kristenbb> no it doesn't, an error message is displayed instead

[11:22] <loli> not here, CodeRat
[11:22] <CodeRat> hi ikonia. Been a few years since I have seen you around.
[11:22] <kristenbb> dr_willis: it says: the system is running in low graphics mode. your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. you will need to configure these yourself
[11:22] <CodeRat> Onryo ;)
[11:23] <dr_willis> kristenbb:  tryed running the nvidia-settings tool?  'gksudo nvidia-settings' ?
[11:23] <kristenbb> dr_willis: no I didnt try it. but I can try. from there, what should i do?
[11:24] <dr_willis> kristenbb:  id also check the forums and askubuntu.com for that exxact chipset. there may be known work arounds or fixss for it
[11:24] <dr_willis> kristenbb:  i always   run nvidia-settings, configure my screens, then save the xorg.conf
[11:25] <dr_willis> install driver, reboot, run settings, configure it, restart x server... is all i normally do
[11:26] <goobraaaa11> Anyone know of way to speed up thumbnail rendering besides new hardware?
[11:27] <bekks> goobraaaa11: There is no other way.

[11:39] <parapan> dear colleagues, HI; I have setup a VPN connection to a WIN server, however is does not work ...message is : VPN connection failed; anyone available to diagnose this issue ???
[11:41] <wols> parapan: make the VPN software more verbose. check the windows eventviewer, etc
[11:41] <wols> parapan: sniff the traffic of your software with wireshark, etc
[11:41] <vpmurdan> load balancing with two network cards on linux.
[11:42] <parapan> wols: first of all, thank you; second , can I use dmesg for identifying this issue , if YES, what syntax do I use ?
[11:42] <ngt> Hi there
[11:42] <wols> parapan: no you can not
[11:42] <wols> possibly syslog but unlikely. check your vpn software and what parameters it has
[11:43] <ngt> i am new to ubuntu and i have spend the last few days installing and understanding the system
[11:43] <parapan> wols: grrr ...then I have to check into wireshark ???
[11:43] <ngt> can anyone help me with my problem?
[11:43] <wols> no. into the documentation of your VPN software
[11:43] <loli> !ask | ngt
[11:43] <wols> ngt: only when you actually state it
[11:44] <ngt> will do
[11:44] <kristenbb> Can someone help me with my graphic card driver issue ?
[11:44] <loli> !ask | kristenbb
[11:45] <kristenbb> my problem is that ever since I installed the recommended driver, the desktop fails to load, there's an error message instead
[11:46] <kristenbb> the error says: the system is running in low graphics mode. your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. you will need to configure these yourself.
[11:46] <wols> kristenbb: short answer: nvidia-settings and change resolution. or hardwrite it into xorg.conf. other possibility: use a nvidia 30x.x driver from current ubuntu (i.e. upgrade to quantal)
[11:47] <kristenbb> wols: change it to what resolution?
[11:47] <py_can> how do I disable the nouveau kernel? I tried adding it to modprobe blacklist, launch ubuntu with 'nomodeset' but it will always be active
[11:47] <py_can> I'm trying to install nvidia drivers..
[11:47] <Seldaek> hey, can anyone help with ipv6 setup? I have the interface setup, I can ping my gateway and traceroute6 some stuff, but the ip is not reachable from outside it seems
[11:47] <wols> kristenbb: whateevr your monitor uses as native
[11:48] <kristenbb> wols: is there any way I can know what my monitor uses as native?
[11:48] <wols> py_can: then do it. unless you do it the bad way by going to nvidia.com
[11:48] <py_can> wols: what is bad about going to my vendors website to download drivers for linux?
[11:48] <wols> kristenbb: look on your invoice for your monitor. even I know that you have a samsung something or ever
[11:49] <wols> py_can: it breaks your ubuntu. it's not the way drivers are handled in linux. never were and hopefully never ever will be
[11:49] <py_can> okay. what do you suggest wols?
[11:49] <wols> !nvidia | py_can
[11:50] <wols> py_can: but you probably already have installed the crap from nvidia.com. good luck getting rid of it
[11:50] <py_can> wols: the installation wouldnt go trough because i couldnt get rid of nouveau
[11:50] <py_can> thanks for the good luck tho
[11:52] <kristenbb> wols: I tried changing the resolution there to the one of my screen, and rebooted, but the error is still there
[11:54] <Haris> got it network installed via the netboot archive
[11:54] <Haris> wouldn't work otherwise

[12:20] <jrib> dr_willis: it's not enabled by default, but it should be supported on recent versions of ubuntu (judging from the wording in the docs anyway, I haven't actually tried it)

[12:21] <dr_willis> but ive nevvver used it either. ;)
[12:21] <jrib> AdvoWork: 1) you can use a regex with locate so you don't need to grep 2) you can do something like: locate foo | while read -r file; do cat $file; done
[12:21] <bekks> find /home/files -type f -name db.php -exec cat {} \;
[12:22] <jrib> AdvoWork: or use find as bekks suggests

[12:35] <ngt> for the past few days
[12:35] <dr_willis> bug in the program would be my guess
[12:36] <coz_> the_dark_knight,  I may not have an answer, however, what is the .conf file for?
[12:36] <jrib> the_dark_knight: you need to enable user jobs in upstart
[12:36] <robbie> ngt could you pastebin the script that is calling sh ?
[12:36] <robbie> I am getting an error that my backup location is too small in deja dup, but it is 5gb and the backup will only be 85mb
[12:36] <the_dark_knight> jrib: not getting you.
[12:37] <jrib> the_dark_knight: upstart isn't configured to check user's ~/.init by default in ubuntu
[12:37] <jrib> the_dark_knight: afaik
[12:37] <the_dark_knight> jrib: modified .conf file http://www.bpaste.net/raw/i2Fs9WlAWgkzeAH3gz3e/. log prints it till " just before starting the worker"
[12:37] <robbie> the_dark_knight: you need to enable user jobs in upstart: http://bradleyayers.blogspot.com/2011/10/upstart-user-jobs-on-ubuntu-1110.html
[12:38] <blackshirt> how to use regular expression with aptitude to represent *
[12:38] <blackshirt> ?
[12:38] <tarzeau> blackshirt: .* ?
[12:38] <tarzeau> or use it with apt-get
[12:38] <robbie> blackshirt: I thought the star was bare in aptitude
[12:39] <robbie> blackshirt: wine* is all the wine stuff
[12:39] <blackshirt> robbie: thats dont works
[12:39] <ngt> robbie: sorry but can you tell me how to do that.
[12:39] <robbie> ngt: go to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and paste your script and then post the url here
[12:40] <the_dark_knight> robbie: jrib , new conf http://www.bpaste.net/raw/i2Fs9WlAWgkzeAH3gz3e/  why is it not running the exec. when I see my syslog it gives log till " just before starting the worker"
[12:40] <robbie> blackshirt: if you are calling it oddly you may need to escape the "*" .. wine\* ... Im not sure other than that -- I thought I just id this the other day
[12:40] <the_dark_knight> robbie: jrib , please help
[12:41] <robbie> the_dark_knight: please see the url I sent you
[12:41] <robbie> the_dark_knight: http://bradleyayers.blogspot.com/2011/10/upstart-user-jobs-on-ubuntu-1110.html
[12:42] <robbie> the_dark_knight: here's the page for playing with upstart -- Im sorry man, I dont actually use it: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html
[12:43] <the_dark_knight> robbie: it just helps regarding ther user services. but I can run the sample service now. just can't run the exec statement in it. please have a look at http://www.bpaste.net/raw/i2Fs9WlAWgkzeAH3gz3e/ .
[12:43] <robbie> blackshirt:  did it help ?
[12:43] <the_dark_knight> robbie: your url doesn't help regarding this, it helps for my previous problem regarding $HOME/.init
[12:43] <robbie> the_dark_knight: either put it in /etc/init or enable "user jobs" in upstart -- see the second link for the manual for upstart
[12:44] <blackshirt> robbie, wine? was works
[12:44] <robbie> the_dark_knight: the manual for upstart is all I can give you, sorry. that is the only program for running jobs from $HOME/.init
[12:45] <robbie> blackshirt:  heh
[12:45] <robbie> blackshirt:  and wine\* doesnt?
[12:45] <robbie> I am getting an error that my backup location is too small in deja dup, but it is 5gb and the backup will only be 85mb
[12:46] <blackshirt> robbie: wine\* was interpreted as wine*,
[12:46] <dr_willis> the_dark_knight: try having it run a simple command. not the prthon script.
[12:46] <robbie> Need a DEJA DUP user's help please
[12:46] <the_dark_knight> robbie: I have put sample.conf in /etc/init/ it works fine upto running this service. but my log says http://www.bpaste.net/raw/qgcQKKPvGvDryuvrasLo/.   my conf http://www.bpaste.net/raw/i2Fs9WlAWgkzeAH3gz3e/
[12:46] <robbie> blackshirt: it sounds like you are putting it in a script
[12:46] <the_dark_knight> dr_willis: ok hold on
[12:46] <Haris> it can't bring up the eth0 interface :[
[12:46] <Haris> netinstall is a mess, in that one has to struggle quite a lot with it to make it network capable
[12:46] <the_dark_knight> dr_willis: which command should I run. ls?
[12:46] <Haris> interface config for eth0 is ready in /etc/network/interfaces, yet its saying it cannot bring eth0 up
[12:47] <Haris> w .. t .. h is going on with it ?
[12:47] <dr_willis> the_dark_knight: or   echo   it works...
[12:47] <robbie> the_dark_knight: you need to change your logging message, it says "start" when it means stop
[12:48] <fluitfries> hmmm...  lubuntu doesn't seem to have a gui for startup applications.
[12:48] <ngt> robbie: ok but where is this script? sorry i am quite a noob.
[12:48] <robbie> the_dark_knight: the last logger line should be: logger "post-stop for sample"
[12:48] <robbie> ngt I dont know -- its the one that is giving you that error
[12:48] <schinsin> did you now rudetube
[12:49] <schinsin> ?
[12:49] <robbie> I am getting an error that my backup location is too small in deja dup, but it is 5gb and the backup will only be 85mb

[12:51] <yepwatermelon> okay then
[12:51] <the_dark_knight> robbie: dr_willis , simple echo "hi" > ~/abc.log works, How do I make it run with python script
[12:51] <robbie> yepwatermelon: wait i see now there was a real error in there
[12:51] <yepwatermelon> any ideas?
[12:52] <the_dark_knight> robbie: dr_willis , should I put "python sample.py" in a "sample.sh" and exec it?
[12:52] <robbie> yepwatermelon: can you uninstall libboost1.44-dev first?
[12:52] <Haris> guys, where does ubuntu keep the network mac address config ?
[12:52] <ngt> robbie: the error pop up and the text on it "There was an error launching the application. Details: Failed to execute child process "/home/ngt/sh" (No such file or directory) and there is an ok button. Nothing else
[12:52] <jpds> Haris: udev.
[12:52] <dr_willis> the_dark_knight:  id double check yout paths and permissions and script. perhaps put the command in your defualt Path
[12:52] <Haris> do I need to give the mac address in interfaces files to make it work ?
[12:52] <robbie> ngt you dont know what script is being run that is causing that?
[12:53] <jpds> Haris: You don't.
[12:53] <jpds> Haris: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[12:53] <schinsin> the gingers do have souls
[12:53] <schinsin> :)
[12:53] <yepwatermelon> That just throws an error saying I have unmet dependencies. From there I run apt-get -f install and get the above error again. :S
[12:53] <robbie> the_dark_knight: I dont kow python, sorry
[12:53] <ngt> robbie:  unfortunately i don't understand what you mean by script. Try to google it but no luck
[12:54] <robbie> ngt you dont know what APPLICATION is being run that is causing that?
[12:54] <ngt> Unicenta oPOS
[12:54] <ngt> robbie: unicenta oPos
[12:54] <robbie> ngt: its just a random pop up interrupting your day or what?
[12:54] <the_dark_knight> dr_willis: robbie , I put "cd /home/magic/Documents  python Worker.py" in sample.sh and "exec sample.sh" and it works.
[12:54] <robbie> ngt oo
[12:54] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[12:55] <ngt> robbie: nope i am trying to run this program which i install earlier but that is the error pop out.
[12:55] <yepwatermelon> So what should I do. I'm stuck in a loop here.. :/
[12:55] <Haris> what service do I need to restart for ubuntu to reload its network interface config ?
[12:55] <bubu\a> how can I google to find all squid.conf files publicly avail?
[12:55] <Haris> or the config mentioned in udev
[12:55] <robbie> ngt: Id contact them if I cant find the script they are using that is giving the error
[12:55] <robbie> ngt commercial software is well supported usually
[12:55] <ngt> nope it's actually free software
[12:55] <ngt> it's an Point of Sale software
[12:56] <robbie> ngt: did you see their web page? wow thats some nice looking free software :)
[12:56] <ngt> robbie: yup but not much help can be found on this matter.
[12:56] <robbie> ngt:  ok well .. if you want you can scan your syslog and see if you get lucky with a specific message from their software
[12:56] <ngt> robbie: though might try my luck here first
[12:57] <robbie> ngt: yea good luck sorry, without knowing the process causing the error its not easy to diagnose
[12:57] <robbie> the_dark_knight: congrats :)
[12:58] <robbie> I am getting an error that my backup location is too small in deja dup, but it is 5gb and the backup will only be 85mb
[12:58] <robbie> anyone know/use the default backup software for Ubuntu ?
[12:58] <ngt> robbie: thanks will try to look around and come back later. I am a windows user so it's kinda hard with ubuntu right now
[12:58] <bekks> robbie: Why?
[12:59] <the_dark_knight> robbie: I mean I have previously tried to put "python" in cron too. It didn't work either, I had to go with a shell script with python command. Wonder why I can't directly run python
[12:59] <yepwatermelon> Yeah I'm still stuck... :/
[12:59] <robbie> bekks: I am getting an error that my backup location is too small in deja dup, but it is 5gb and the backup will only be 85mb
[12:59] <bekks> robbie: So you are using deja dup then.
[12:59] <yepwatermelon> robbie: trying to remove it throws an unmet dependency error running apt-get -f install throws the error from earlier
[13:00] <robbie> yepwatermelon: what is the other application that is requiring libboost-dev?
[13:00] <robbie> bekks: its the default backup software in Ubuntu
[13:01] <yepwatermelon> robbie: libboost-dev
[13:02] <guang_> can ubuntu 10.04 install gstreamer 1.0?
[13:02] <robbie> yepwatermelon: what is the *other application* that requires libboost-dev?
[13:03] <the_dark_knight> robbie: gearman requires it.
[13:03] <the_dark_knight> robbie: sorry that was other discussion.
[13:04] <yepwatermelon> robbie: They're just dependencies required to compile another program.
[13:05] <robbie> the_dark_knight, yepwatermelon: whichever software that is, you might make a backup of it, and then uninstall it... install libboost1.46-dev and then reinstall the other software -- but I think you are going to find that it won't accept libboost1.46-dev, so you'll need to get the package from the source instead of from ubuntu
[13:05] <robbie> bekks: yeah, it's the default backup software in Ubuntu
[13:06] <sls> join #als
[13:06] <sls> hello
[13:07] <JuJuBee> I am trying to install 12.10 64 bit onto this laptop but get a message telling me it requires an x86-64 but only has i686?  http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/product/pdf_files/detailed_specs/satellite_A105-S4284.pdfv
[13:07] <jeaton> how do I go about changing the DE in ubuntu 12.10?
[13:07] <Haris> no /etc/inittab on ubuntu 11.10 ?
[13:07] <bekks> Haris: No.
[13:08] <Haris> where does it store the config with which I can tell it to boot in what init mode
[13:08] <jeaton> i can't force myself to like unity
[13:08] <bekks> Haris: There are no initmodes anymore since Upstart.
[13:08] <Haris> !upstart
[13:08] <bekks> !upstart | Haris
[13:09] <Haris> how do I make it remain on console, rather than go to X after bootup ?
[13:09] <Haris> do we have runlevels ?
[13:09] <bekks> Haris: No. As just being told.
[13:10] <bekks> Disable the startup of the desktop manager in /etc/default/
[13:10] <DJones> !text | Haris
[13:10] <Haris> I see
[13:11] <RxDx> please, I have 2 NICs (network interfaces) connected on a router... One is connect on a PCI and another is on a miniPCI... How can I know which interface is connect on each device? I mean.. i wanna know if wlan0 is the network connect on a miniPCI or on PCI slot..
[13:11] <bekks> RxDx: Connect a cable and see which interface it is.
[13:11] <Haris> => /etc/default/console-setup file ?
[13:12] <RxDx> bekks: there is no cables.. they are both wireless interfaces
[13:12] <Haris> I think this ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode ) link is broken
[13:12] <bekks> Haris: Why do you think that?
[13:12] <bekks> RxDx: Just pull out one of them...
[13:12] <Haris> I see no such heading or point that it takes me to on the page, after this web page loads up
[13:13] <RxDx> bekks: u mean.. ifconfig wlan0 down?
[13:13] <RxDx> but how can i know if i pulled out the miniPCI or the PCI?
[13:13] <jeaton> how do I switch to a gnome environment?
[13:13] <bekks> RxDx: By looking into your hands...
[13:14] <bekks> RxDx: No. I mean "pull it out of your computer".
[13:14] <RxDx> bekks: on my hands i can see both.. but i dont know if the device that im looking for is the wlan0 or the wlan1
[13:14] <bekks> RxDx: Do you know the difference between PCI and miniPCI?
[13:14] <Haris> this is the CD's default options
[13:14] <RxDx> bekks: hmm, its an option.. but is there any other way without take the card off?
[13:14] <Haris> its not options for installed OS
[13:15] <bekks> Haris: I just told you how to solve your problem.
[13:15] <RxDx> bekks: yes.. but both uses the same driver
[13:15] <bekks> RxDx: And...?
[13:15] <RxDx> (atk5) i guess
[13:15] <RxDx> them i cannot differ them.. i mean.. i dont know if im looking for wlan0 is the miniPCI or the PCI device
[13:16] <bekks> RxDx: Do you know that PCI and miniPCI have different sizes when compared to each other?
[13:16] <Haris> bekks: I didn't understand the message
[13:16] <RxDx> i need to know that because i wanna make wlan0 connect via adhoc with miniPCI device while wlan1 is an AP connect via PCI
[13:16] <Haris> there's nothing in what I read that relates to it
[13:16] <RxDx> bekks: physical size? yes, i know
[13:16] <bekks> RxDx: Then pull out ONE of them...
[13:17] <bekks> RxDx: Where's the problem with that?
[13:17] <RxDx> bekks: this routers could be installed on a remote location that i could not have physical access
[13:17] <bekks> RxDx: But now, you have access...
[13:18] <Haris> I can't find the relevant file under /etc/defaults/
[13:18] <bekks> Haris: So which desktop manager do you use?
[13:18] <RxDx> bekks: ill have to do that way hehe.. thanks a lot :)
[13:19] <Haris> I don't want to use any. Just want it to boot into console/cli
[13:19] <bekks> Haris: So which do you use NOW?
[13:19] <Haris> I'v installed 11.10-server-64bit
[13:19] <bekks> Haris: And why did you install X on your server then?
[13:19] <Haris> I'm not sure. I'v just installed 11.10 from netboot. Can't see anything on KVM
[13:19] <Haris> I didn't tell it to install X
[13:20] <Haris> I wanted a basic, bare minimum install from network
[13:20] <bekks> Then there is no X installed. And no desktop manager. Your vm is bootinginto cli.
[13:20] <wols> Haris: don't start a display manager.
[13:20] <bekks> wols: He didnt.
[13:20] <wols> bekks: but he got X somehow or what?
[13:20] <Haris> when the box boots up, the KVM screen goes "No signal"
[13:20] <bekks> wols: No.
[13:20] <Haris> but when I send Alt+F4 macro to KVM, the display goes back to cli
[13:20] <bekks> Haris: Then boot into text mode as suggested.
[13:20] <wols> Haris: nomodeset
[13:21] <Haris> I'm not sure what I was suggested
[13:21] <bekks> You were. :)
[13:21] <Haris> I can't find anything relevant under /etc/default
[13:21] <bekks> That has nothing to do with the text mode.
[13:21] <bekks> That only has something to do with not starting a desktop manager.
[13:22] <Haris> wols: there's nothing as "nomodeset" on cli on 11.10
[13:22] <Haris> ok
[13:22] <bekks> Haris: ? nomodeset is a kernel option, not a cliu command.
[13:22] <Haris> ah
[13:22] <ubh> hi all! I need to get 2 connections working...
[13:22] <Haris> there's no /etc/sysconfig on ubuntu. Where do I set this option
[13:23] <bekks> Haris: In the bootloader config.
[13:23] <Haris> ah, I'm going to have to read a lot about this. I'll let go of this one for now.
[13:23] <ubh> laptop--->wifi--->router--->internet AND laptop--->eth--->router--->eth--->PS3
[13:23] <bekks> !grub2 | Haris
[13:23] <Haris> second issue, the ciritical one, I have is, its not bringing up eth0 interface. I can't find the reason
[13:23] <Haris> ah that
[13:24] <wols> Haris: what's in your /etc/network/interfaces ?
[13:24] <ubh> how can I get theese 2 connections works at same time?
[13:24] <bekks> ubh: Why do you want to connections to your router? Thats not necessary.
[13:24] <LennyLinux> Hi, i created a bootable usb and set usb-zip (i tried usb-hdd also) as fist bootable device in the bios, but it doesn't work. The other day it worked with win8 on the same pen. Do you have any advice? Could you help me, please?
[13:24] <Haris> auto lo and auto eth0. then normal interface config under the auto eth0 line for eth0. pasting it
[13:24] <ubh> bekks: because I'm connected to the internet and laptop is near my router
[13:24] <bekks> ubh: And...?
[13:25] <ubh> bekks: PS3 is far from router
[13:25] <bekks> You dont need two connections, but only one.
[13:25] <wols> LennyLinux: how did you create it?
[13:25] <ubh> bekks: ? explain please
[13:25] <ubh> I'm a bit n00b on networking
[13:26] <tinux> Hi
[13:26] <Haris> http://pastebin.com/ypZAKtUB3
[13:26] <bekks> ubh: laptop <- wifi-> router <- cable -> internet / ps3
[13:26] <Haris> correction
[13:26] <Haris> http://pastebin.com/ypZAKtUB
[13:26] <bekks> ubh: Thats all you need.
[13:26] <LennyLinux> wols: i tried universal usb creator and now live linux usb creator.
[13:27] <tinux> Where can i see when apache will be upgrade to 2.2.23 on ubunti 12.04? We need the allowAnyURI and thats broken in 2.2.22
[13:27] <tinux> s/ubunti/ubuntu/
[13:27] <ubh> bekks: I don't understand at all... You maybe mean that with only one interface I can communicate with PS3 and also surf 'net?
[13:28] <wiehanvdmerwe> How do I completely 'reset' the package manager, cause my retarded apt wants to downgrade to 12.04 after my dist-upgrade to 12.10..
[13:29] <Haris> it says, cannot find eth0. failed to bring up eth0
[13:29]  * ubh connected?
[13:30] <tinux> It does not need to be connected or cabled to bring it up
[13:30] <mandla> Hello. Is it only me, i couldnt upgrade from Precise Pangolin to Quantal Quetzal. I ended up installing a fresh copy of 12.10 of a different partition.
[13:30] <wiehanvdmerwe> How do I reset/fix apt
[13:31] <Haris> I see it defined in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file
[13:31] <ubh> bekks: and if my laptop an ps3 are LAN Gbit and router only 100Mbps? I should connect via eth directly to the PS3 to have full speed, right?
[13:31] <tinux> Where can i see when apache will be upgrade to 2.2.23 on ubunti 12.04? We need the allowAnyURI and thats broken in 2.2.22
[13:31] <phaber> holaaaaa.................
[13:31] <tinux> heys
[13:33] <Haris> any ideas why its not finding eth0 ?
[13:33] <Slart> tinux: I'm not sure they will.. you might have to get the next version of ubuntu
[13:34] <Slart> tinux: ubuntu doesn't do rolling updates unless it's security stuff, iirc
[13:34] <tinux> Slart: hmm its 12.04LTS :) long term... yay
[13:34] <mandla> Haris, use ethtool to bring it up.
[13:34] <TheLordOfTime> tinux, they won't upgrade the versions in already-released versions, bugs and security fixes get pushed in with patches and minor fixes
[13:34] <Haris> I have it disabled in bios. that's why it can't find it
[13:34] <tinux> I will make a bugreport
[13:34] <Haris> my! bad
[13:35] <TheLordOfTime> tinux, they won't upgrade that to 2.2.23, but if you can find bugfixes that would fix it in 2.2.22 it could be SRU'd (and bugfixes are put in)
[13:35] <robbie> how can I set the font in indicator-messages? it is too dark except the very last line that says "clear"
[13:35] <mandla> Haris, fix it :)
[13:35] <tinux> They turned it of on 2.2.22 but didnt enable the option
[13:37] <robbie> how can I set the font in the messaging menu (indicator-messages)? it is too dark except the very last line that says "clear"
[13:38] <LennyLinux> Hi, i created a bootable usb and set usb-zip (i tried usb-hdd also) as fist bootable device in the bios, but it doesn't work. The other day it worked with win8 on the same pen. Do you have any advice? Could you help me, please?
[13:38] <Haris> fixed that
[13:38] <Haris> I still can't connect to network with ti
[13:39] <micjan02> how do i make apt-cache show information only the package that is installed and not all packages with given name?
[13:40] <Haris> how do I make ubuntu reload its network interface config ?
[13:40] <robbie> Haris: sudo service network restart
[13:41] <Haris> I'm already logged in as root, for now
[13:41] <Haris> I see
[13:41] <robbie> dont need sudo then.. but it wont hurt
[13:41] <robbie> :P
[13:41] <Haris> when I use the stop command
[13:41] <Haris> it says invalid interface or job
[13:41] <wols> Haris: ifdown <interface> ifup <interface>
[13:41] <robbie> Haris: just start it then
[13:41] <wols> Haris: what command do you run?
[13:41] <Haris> wols: I remember those ones :D
[13:42] <robbie> Haris: service network start
[13:42] <Haris> => /etc/init.d/networking restart, /etc/init.d/network-interfaces restart
[13:42] <mandla> Check if the links are up, ethtool
[13:43] <robbie> Haris: I *think* networking and network-manager are subsystems and the main service is "network"
[13:43] <Haris> can you believe it, the server ISO/version doesn't come pre-installed with openss-server
[13:43] <Haris> I see
[13:43] <Haris> I mean the netboot one
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> Haris: you can remaster it to have it. The server install CD is there to install the server OS, so why would it be needed?
[13:45] <n00bie> How can i create a startup usb stick from ubuntu-12.04.1-server-i386.iso ?
[13:45] <Haris> got it working
[13:45] <blackshirt> haris, you can install it manually
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: use unetbootin, it runs on nearly everything
[13:45] <nikolam> Hi, I installed text-only Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit on BTRFS as Virtualbox Guest and it is saying this error on Boot: "sparse file not allowed". After I hit enter it boot right. It is without installed drivers/VBox addons.
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: server OS doesn't come with a desktop UI. Is that what you want?
[13:45] <Haris> how can one connect to the server remotely, if not via ssh ?
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> nikolam: I had that, no idea of the fix
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> Haris: install openssh-server on the system
[13:46] <robbie> ActionParsnip: hey, good morning
[13:46] <Haris> already done =)
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> Haris: then connect away
[13:46] <blackshirt> robbie: good night here :D
[13:46] <nikolam> ActionParsnip, will see if it goes away after installing addons
[13:46] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: i tried to boot into desktop verion of 12.04.1 i368 and using the startup media creator, but unfortunately it produces a corrupt result
[13:46] <Haris> =)
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> robbie: howdy
[13:46] <VlanX> can i just install the 3.5 kernel with apt-get under 12.04 ?
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: what video chip do you use?
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> VlanX: you may find a PPA but it won't be supported here as it's a 3rd party kernel
[13:47] <robbie> ActionParsnip: Im looking for help with indicator-messages -- do you know how I can change the text color of the submenus? for some reason they are dark on dark instead of like every other indicator
[13:47] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: huh? nvidia gt 240?
[13:47] <blackshirt> VlanX: yes, sure
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> robbie: check font settings
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: did you add the boot option:  nouveau.blacklist=1
[13:48] <VlanX> ActionParsnip: how is it possible if 3.5 belongs to 12.10 ?
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> VlanX: its a later release, so has a later kernel
[13:48] <robbie> ActionParsnip: ok Ill search that thanks :)
[13:48] <food> I installed ubuntu 12.04.1 (64bit) yesterday and my laptop continued for 24 hours and many hours it was idle. I was been running 2-3 Applications vmware workstation(With 2 guests), Firefox  . Today again the all icons, menus,windows etc got ugly. I did not even able to take any screenshot because i can't click on K menu SO i forcefully reboot the system(So i again lost my all important works) . This happened on Ubuntu 32 before but the same proble
[13:48] <food> m in 64 bit too. Anyone can help me to fix this please?
[13:49] <nikolam> Also PATA CD/DVD is not available in /etc/fstab after install (even if CD was inserted in the same PATA drive for install...)
[13:49] <Haris> check this out. I said service network restart. it says network: unrecognized service
[13:49] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: nope thats another problem, im booting it with nomodeset, but there seems to be a bug in the startup media creator since i thought i used the most compatible verion and when i check the created usb drive with md5sum -c md5sum.txt there are missing files
[13:49] <Haris> lol
[13:49] <nikolam> same for bare metal 640bit install and 32bit Vbox install from PATA DVD
[13:49] <Haris> o_O
[13:50] <LucidGuy> Has anyone tried installing Ubuntu 12.04 .. then xfce-desktop, then completely removing Unity?
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: you should add the nouveau.blacklist=1 so that you use fallback driver, you can then install the propriatary driver once installed and be ok
[13:50] <blazemore> LucidGuy: Why not just install xubuntu?
[13:50] <VlanX> ActionParsnip: so you suggest me to istall 12.04 rather than upgrade ?
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> LucidGuy: why uninstall Unity? It's  tiny
[13:50] <LucidGuy> blazemore, because Xubuntu 12.04 only has 3 year support as apposed to 5
[13:50] <nikolam> LucidGuy, it sounds to me like Xubuntu install. It has no Unity but everything works.
[13:50] <blackshirt> LucidGuy: maybe someone has trying to do that..why not you try it ?
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> VlanX: for me personally, clean install is always ideal (seen too many issues  with upgrades)
[13:51] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: thanks, but thats not the problem in facing right now. i need to create a usb drive for server install with all the needed files . currently i get     md5sum: ./install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default: No such file or directory
[13:51] <robbie> is there a general resource on .desktop files?
[13:51] <VlanX> ActionParsnip: k thank you :)
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> LucidGuy: Xubuntu 12.04 is supported as long as Ubuntu 12.04 is. Lubuntu 12.04 is not LTS
[13:51] <food> Clean install also has big issue if it is 12.4
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: use TAB to autcomplete folder names.
[13:52] <LucidGuy> ActionParsnip, Thats not ture.  Xubuntu is 3, Ubuntu is 5
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> food: if your work is 'impportant' why is it not backed up?
[13:52] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: how would i do that_
[13:53] <food> ActionParsnip, It crashed before backed up because i just started.
[13:53] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: i dont know where the correct file missing from the created usb stick would be located to copy it over
[13:54] <robbie> is there a general resource on .desktop files? like the files discussed here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/108060/is-it-possible-to-add-custom-items-to-system-settings-window
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> LucidGuy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xubuntu#Xubuntu_12.04_LTS     states 5 years
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: type a few letters of the folder name and hit tab,if a match exists it will be autocompleted
[13:56] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: i dont understand how this would help with a missing file
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: then the ISO is corrupted
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> LucidGuy: wait, you are right. My bad
[13:56] <LucidGuy> ActionParsnip, http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/   first line of 12.04 description
[13:56] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: the md5sum matches with the ones for the release versions
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: then what are you MD5 testing?
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> LucidGuy: Lubuntu 12.04 isn't even ay LTS :( sad times
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> *any
[13:58] <blackshirt> LucidGuy: lts or not was not so important until you want support from canonical :D
[13:58] <food> ActionParsnip, have you ever tried Ubuntu for at least 24 hours with opened few windows?
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> food: sure, my server systems stay up for weeks and get all kinds of apps ran on them.
[13:58] <food> ActionParsnip, Desktop?
[13:59] <guang_> how to install gstreamer 1.02 on ubuntu 10.04??
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> food: yes, LXDE on one, my laptop is powered off at night
[13:59] <LucidGuy> blackshirt, Im not interested in Canonical support..  I am interested in their repos keeping their software patched and upgrade for the entire 5 years
[13:59] <theuns> Any have a Dell Inspiron 5720 with wireless working?
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> !find gstreamer0.10
[14:00] <food> ActionParsnip, What is your Laptop Model?
[14:00] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: i am on ubuntu 12.04.1 i368 desktop, downloaded the ubuntu-12.04.1-server-i386.iso checked its md5, used the startup media creator to create an live usb drive without errors, mounted it and issued md5sum -c md5sum.txt in its root directory. there are 3 files missing from it, they simply are not there. thats my problem, how do i create an correct usb stick from the iso
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> food: Dell Lat D420
[14:00] <blackshirt> LucidGuy: yes, you get them :D
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> theuns: what wifi chip does it use?
[14:00] <blackshirt> LucidGuy: just do regular updates for your apt databases, and fetch the patch update you want
[14:01] <rsv> i use the latest 12.04 lts, when i drag my mouse on the top of the screen i get FILE, EDIT, ... which is essentially the task bar, it vanishes when the mouse is taken off, how to permanently enable them
[14:01] <theuns> ActionParsnip: with lshw i get product: Broadcom Corporation
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> guang_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gstreamer0.10&searchon=names&suite=lucid&section=all    take your pick....
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> theuns: what is the output of:   lsb_release -sc
[14:01] <food> ActionParsnip, Well, my laptop is Dell xps L502x ....
[14:02] <theuns> ActionParsnip: precise
[14:02] <tyler_d1> why does the title bar not update when you ssh somewhere in 64 ubuntu 12.04?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | theuns
[14:03] <n00bie> Does anyone here know how i can create an installer usb stick from ubuntu-12.04.1-server-i386.iso?
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> theuns: I recommend you get a wired connection and get updated, you can also install the driver much easier
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: did you try unetbootin?
[14:03] <guang_> ActionParsnip:It is all about 0.10,not the version 1.0
[14:03] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: yes it does not support that verion of ubuntu
[14:03] <theuns> ActionParsnip: the machine is wired, did all updates, but still no joy
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> guang_: then try a PPA
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> theuns: did you run:  gksudo jockey
[14:04] <vfw> n00bie: what files were missing?
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: it doesn't support the server ISO?
[14:04] <theuns> ActionParsnip: no, will do so
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> theuns: read the link ubottu gave please, it also shows how you can install it in a terminal
[14:05] <guang_> ActionParsnip:where i can find the ppa?google?
[14:05] <theuns> ActionParsnip: ok, will do, what will gksudo jockey do?
[14:05] <Kartagis> question: if whereis tomcat7 gives me /etc/tomcat7/ and /usr/share/tomcat7, should I set TOMCAT_HOME to the former or the latter? there is also a /usr/share/tomcat7-root/
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | guang_
[14:07] <n00bie> vfw, ActionParsnip these files are missing with the usb creator from the correcponding desktop verion     http://paste.ubuntu.com/1323624/
[14:08] <vfw> n00bie: How did you get that output?
[14:08] <vfw> n00bie: What command?
[14:09] <n00bie> vfw i mounted the finished new usb stick, cd into its root and executed md5sum -c md5sum.txt
[14:09] <theuns> ActionParsnip: I did run gksudo jockey, but does not look like something happend?
[14:10] <n00bie> vfw it runs fine until the end part of it which is the paste in question
[14:10] <n00bie> vfw there are similar bugs around http://askubuntu.com/questions/127398/usb-drive-install-of-ubuntu-12-04-server-fails-cant-find-components-from-cd-r
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> theuns: again, read the link
[14:11] <n00bie> vfw thats why i tried to use the correspondung desktop verion of 12.04.1 but it didnt help.
[14:12] <vfw> n00bie: Did you use an ISO or a CD when you created the USB ?
[14:12] <n00bie> vfw md5 checked iso
[14:13] <robbie> how do you take a screen cap
[14:14] <ewook> robbie: you press print screen?
[14:14] <n00bie> vfw i read somewhere i could just dd the iso to the usb block device, just not sure if thats the right method for the boot loader
[14:14] <theuns> ActionParsnip: Article in the link suggest to run lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 to get the chipset. The output i get is
[14:14] <theuns> 02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation Device [14e4:4365] (rev 01)
[14:14] <theuns> Does not tell me what chipset? Only its broadcom
[14:14] <robbie> ewook thanks -- for some reason it wasnt working
[14:14] <n00bie> vfw didnt try that yet
[14:14] <robbie> ooo
[14:14] <wols> theuns: the PCI ID does: 14e4:4365
[14:14] <robbie> how do you take a screen cap when you have a menu open?
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> robbie: import ~/screenshot.png      you can draw a box around the area. You need imagemagick installing :)
[14:15] <robbie> but *when you have a menu open*?
[14:15] <robbie> like if I click an indicator and the menu below it opens
[14:15] <theuns> ActionParsnip: o, ok. Thanks, Did not realise that. :-[
[14:15] <wols> theuns: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:bDlzhwkWfowJ:www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci:14E4:4365-WIRELESS/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=firefox-a
[14:15] <food> ActionParsnip, You sure that current ubuntu does support on Modern hardware?
[14:15] <food> Like Dell xps?
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> food: should be fine
[14:16] <n00bie> vfw, ActionParsnip seems like either the release iso is broken, the usb startup media creator of it or both
[14:16] <theuns> ActionParsnip: So it looks like the driver is not available
[14:17] <girafee> @food it would be better to ask Dell to support Linux properly.
[14:17] <fusk> vfw, yesterday you asked me to make a pastebin of sudu fdisk -l. http://pastebin.com/BSMNEehG
[14:17] <Kartagis> question: if whereis tomcat7 gives me /etc/tomcat7/ and /usr/share/tomcat7, should I set TOMCAT_HOME to the former or the latter? there is also a /usr/share/tomcat7-root/
[14:18] <wols> Kartagis: dpkg -L <tomcat package>
[14:19] <nardev> Whose idea was this to change gnome in ubuntu? The worst thing they could do :( I don't see clear list of running apps, i don't know where to find installed apps.. HORRIBLE!!! Please help, how do i find list of my installed apps?
[14:19] <Kartagis> wols: I got lots of stuff
[14:19] <Kartagis> nardev: dpkg-query -l
[14:19] <greasegum> Anyone know what dmesg error "fail to flush all tx fifo queues' means?
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: possibly a bad MD5 sum file. Are there any bugs reported?
[14:19] <nardev> Kartagis, what is that going to do?
[14:20] <wols> greasegum: sounds like some NIC error
[14:20] <Kartagis> nardev: it's going to list all your installed applications
[14:20] <jhonatan> :)
[14:20] <nardev> Kartagis, aha, ok, but i WANT TO BE ABLE TO CLICK ON MENU AND HAVE SHORTCUTS easly not like THIS.. this si HORROR :(
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: if you run:   export TOMCAT_HOME=/etc/tomcat7/      or whichever you need, does it worl
[14:20] <nikolam> Why aptitude is saying it does not have "super cow powers" ?? :))
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> nardev: kill the caps
[14:20] <nardev> Kartagis, it's ok, but i need it for regular use...
[14:20] <girafee> unity is childish, thats why i choose xfce.
[14:20] <robbie> can someone help me with a font problem?
[14:20] <robbie> can someone help me with a font problem? http://imgur.com/UrwKb
[14:20] <nardev> ActionParsnip, sorry
[14:21] <LucidGuy> Got me an older Ubuntu 8.10 server I would like to upgrade to 12.04.  Now in the indeal world I would back-up the system perform a fresh clean install .. and then restore all my apps/services/data.  Unfortunately that can be a pain.  Any recommended upgrade path?
[14:21] <food> ActionParsnip, girafee http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1969300 , https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/993187 , Dell should make Hardware for linux ?
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> nardev: install gnome-panel   log off and log in to the new session
[14:21] <nardev> ActionParsnip, lets see ...
[14:21] <greasegum> wols:: I'm only getting it on my school's network.
[14:21] <bekks> LucidGuy: 8.10->9.04->9.10->10.04->12.04
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> food: they pre-install the OS on some systems. They don't make specific hardware for Linux, they just use normal hardware  which is linux friendly
[14:21] <greasegum> wols:: meanwhile my ping times are highly erratic, sometimes not connecting at all, sometimes
[14:22] <bekks> Unfortunately, 9.04 and 9.10 arent supported anymore.
[14:22] <LucidGuy> bekks, Have you tried performing an upgrade path like that?  Sounds scarry .. as in Ill break things.
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> bekks: glas 9.04 is dead tbh
[14:22] <MonkeyDust> LucidGuy  fresh install is less painful
[14:22] <food> girafee, Many peoples don't have this if they have Ubuntu 11.x ...
[14:22] <nardev> did anyone have an issue with skype on ubuntu, webcam shows image upside down.
[14:22] <bekks> ActionParsnip: I know :)
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> LucidGuy: fresh install then restore data from backup
[14:23] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: possibly this one is related but its for 12.04 not 12.04.1   http://askubuntu.com/questions/127398/usb-drive-install-of-ubuntu-12-04-server-fails-cant-find-components-from-cd-r
[14:23] <robbie> Im having a font problem on the panel -- please see http://imgur.com/UrwKb
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: could install 12.04  and not 12.04.1
[14:24] <vfw> n00bie: Try xorriso
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> robbie: what is the output of:   lsb_release -sc   please
[14:25] <robbie> ActionParsnip: quantal
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: or install using the mini ISO then install the desktop ontop. Does the system use a switchable GPU?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> robbie: if you make a fresh Ubuntu user and log in there, is it ok?
[14:26] <girafee> @food if the hardware vendors decide to make open sourced, 99.9% of the hardware related issues should be over.
[14:26] <robbie> ActionParsnip: let me log into guest
[14:26] <n00bie> vfw you mean copy the files from the iso_ they arent there either
[14:26] <n00bie> ActionParsnip: is uses powervr sgx 530
[14:27] <vfw> n00bie: Oh, the iso is missing the files. I get it now... sorry.
[14:27] <vfw> n00bie: Myabe you can just remaster the ISO and add them.
[14:28] <n00bie> vfw its the release iso for the server 12.04.1 i368 idk where to get those missing files
[14:28] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip: absolutely no idea if this is what I want, but I'm seeing what I want
[14:28] <food> girafee, Well, I love Linux. But If Linux(Ubuntu) does not support those kind hardware then there should be an option for Ubuntu ... right?
[14:28] <vfw> n00bie: from desktop version
[14:28] <food> girafee, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/993187/comments/19
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> n00bie: yes, its a switchable GPU, this causes a tonne of problems in Linux
[14:28] <nardev> Unity is THE WORST thing ubuntu has done. I used suse, mandrake and debian for almost 10 years, i haven't come across this horrible and not intuitive GUI yet!
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> nardev: you don't have to use it......
[14:29] <robbie> ActionParsnip: there is no indicator-messages at all for guest account .. the other account on this box isnt hardly used at all so i checked there and it has the same problem
[14:29] <nardev> ActionParsnip, gnome 3 also sucks :(
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> nardev: you don't have to use anything in Ubuntu, you can switch the apps out as you want
[14:29] <nardev> i have to use ubuntu but i HATE unity
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> nardev: there is an unsupported fork of Gnome2
[14:29] <vfw> nardev: Try xfce
[14:29] <jakey1> hi, I have a windows 7 computer which I dont have the password for is it possible to read the files in ubuntu?
[14:29] <DJones> nardev: There's always lxde, xfce, kde
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> nardev: again, you can use Ubuntu and not use Unity
[14:30] <nardev> ActionParsnip, i just hope there is no need for "horrible" way to adjust it.
[14:30] <Kartagis> nardev: you have the option to log in with GNOME
[14:30] <n00bie> vfw what you mean with remaster it? i dont want the desktop version, btw the desktop verion doesnt have this issue
[14:30] <girafee> @food, its not the os who support cutting edge hardwares. its the device manufactures who distribute drivers. how many devices is automatically detected by mswinXP?
[14:30] <Seveas> jakey1, unless the files or disk are encrypted, you can read it when booting ubuntu
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> jakey1: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/resetwindowspassword/
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> jakey1: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ubuntu+reset+windows+password    too hard?
[14:30] <kristenbb> hi, can someone help me to solve my graphic card issue ? I just installed 12.04 multiple times, but I can't get the graphic card driver to work. It was working before I chose to reinstall 12.04. Now when ubuntu starts, I get this error: The system is running in low graphics mode. Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself.
[14:30] <n00bie> jakey1: yes
[14:31] <jakey1> so whats stopping someone stealing my laptop and getting all my info off it?
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> nardev: its the way Ubuntu wants to take the Gnome desktop. The default shell for Gnome3 is Gnome shell which is also available
[14:31] <vfw> n00bie: mount the iso, add the files, create new iso from the mount.
[14:31] <LennyLinux> Guys i have win 8 on my machine and i think it doesn't let me boot from cd, so i'm not able to install ubuntu, how can i do?
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> jakey1: physical access circumvents most security measures (but not all)
[14:32] <robbie> ActionParsnip: there is no indicator-messages at all for guest account .. the other account on this box isnt hardly used at all so i checked there and it has the same problem

[14:32] <ActionParsnip> robbie: how about a new ubuntu user, not guest
[14:32] <food> girafee, Why Ubuntu 11.x is working ? Anyway, If it is bug of ubuntu then it is bug. And if ubuntu community would known where the problem is then they could fixed it. At this time i am just trying to make it little stable so i can work for long time.
[14:32] <fusk> did they fix the freezing after sleep for laptops in 12.10 ?
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> jakey1: holding the device. Physically sittinig in front of and using the system as opposed to remote access over network.
[14:32] <LennyLinux> ActionParsnip: the bios is ok. I also pressed f12 and specified to boot from cd but the starts win 8.
[14:33] <nardev> ActionParsnip, two times i was listening Mark S. trying to explain that this is right move. I'm so sorry i don't see ti is :(
[14:33] <jakey1> ActionParsnip, so someone just steals my laptop?
[14:33] <LennyLinux> I think win 8 prevents to install other os.
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> jakey1: yes
[14:33] <ewook> LennyLinux: on the same drive yes.
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> LennyLinux: sounds like some EFI stuff which I've never had to mess with
[14:34] <ewook> Just go separate disk for each os ;).
[14:34] <christian67160> Entrez le texte ici...hello
[14:34] <ewook> and select disk to boot, and done.
[14:34] <christian67160> can someone help me
[14:34] <christian67160> sorry i dont speak good english ^^
[14:34] <christian67160> here is the error message
[14:34] <LennyLinux> That bastard.
[14:34] <LennyLinux> And now?
[14:34] <kristenbb> Can someone help me with my driver issue please ,
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: with details, maybe
[14:34] <robbie> ActionParsnip: just like the guest account -- he indicator-messages panel indicator doesnt even load
[14:35] <robbie> ActionParsnip: just like the guest account -- *the* indicator-messages panel indicator doesnt even load
[14:35] <LennyLinux> ewook: ActionParsnip what can i do now? Am i stuck? :D
[14:35] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: I just installed 12.04 multiple times, but I can't get the graphic card driver to work. It was working before I chose to reinstall 12.04. Now when ubuntu starts, I get this error: The system is running in low graphics mode. Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself.
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> LennyLinux: its not something I've used so therefore have no idea, maybe others can help
[14:35] <ewook> LennyLinux: I'd say go with leaving windows 8 on one drive :)
[14:36] <[Outcast]> I having a problem with MAAS, trying to commission a box but the timestamp  for oauth is off by 4 hours. Have modified the config to use a local time server I have setup but still no dice. Still always off by 4 hours. Any thoughts?
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: why haven't you stated the video chip or make and model of the system? How can I possibly reply intelligently?
[14:36] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: sorry. The system is ubuntu 12.04. The graphic card is nvidia gtx 680
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: why did you not state that before?
[14:37] <robbie> ActionParsnip: just like the guest account -- the indicator-messages panel indicator doesnt even load
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: add the boot option:  nouveau.blacklist=1    and it should help
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> robbie: you said, 3 times
[14:38] <christian67160> w:gpg error:http://ppa.launchpad.net quantal release: the folowing signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not avaiable :NO-PUBKEY 83fba1751378b444 ????????????????
[14:38] <robbie> ActionParsnip: just wondering if you are reading me
[14:38] <christian67160> if someone know what to do
[14:38] <christian67160> ^^
[14:38] <christian67160> thank you
[14:38] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: How to add that boot option?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> christian67160: sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 83fba1751378b444
[14:38] <blackshirt> christian67160: add the keyring to apt
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: why did you not add the 2nd lot of info the first time?
[14:38] <christian67160> will try this now ^^
[14:39] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: what are you talking about ?
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: when you initially posted the question there was no detail, why did you not state the video chip and other useful details?
[14:39] <[Outcast]> is there another room for MAAS?
[14:40] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: The message was already a few lines long, I won't make a whole book to explain my problem, I thought this was good enough to get the conversation started
[14:40] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: besides i'm a newbie I don't know what info would be relevant
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: its cool, you can type huge lines
[14:40] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: does that really matter anyway?
[14:40] <n00bie> vfw: i found the missing files in the original iso file, just copied them over to the usb stick ... now the md5sum check completes without error, i just hope those files were the ment for usb sticks, idk why they were missing ...
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: you are having a display issue, so its very relevant
[14:40] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: now you know, so can you help me please ?
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: please give full details in future, it speeds things up
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> !bootoption | kristenbb

[14:45] <fusk> did they fix the freezing after sleep for laptops in 12.10 ?

[14:46] <skypce> hello , i have downloaded the unity-2d 5.12 source code, do you know what i need modify for use unity-2d-panel standalone?
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: hold SHIFT at boot
[14:47] <robbie> ActionParsnip: I guess you had nothing else to say about it now that you know that it doesnt load in a new account ?
[14:47] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: still not seeing grub
[14:48] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: does it matter whether it's left or right shift, or both?
[14:48] <robbie> can someone help me with a font problem? http://imgur.com/UrwKb
[14:49] <robbie> can someone help me with a font problem with the panel? http://imgur.com/UrwKb

[14:50] <robbie> Ill come back
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: then hold SHIFT at boot should do it, its the standard in Grub2
[14:50] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: I installed ubuntu 12.04 and I have problems with the graphic card driver.
[14:50] <kristenbb> ActionParsnip: I tried it twice, didn't work.
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> kristenbb: you can then press E and (e)dit grub and delete the:  quiet splash   and in the place add: nouveau.blacklist=1

[15:10] <blackshirt> hello
[15:10] <jakey1> I didnt try yet
[15:11] <blackshirt> how to force-overwrite when installing packages with apt-get ?
[15:11] <jakey1> Touhou44, tahnsk for the link
[15:12] <vaurdan> Touhou44, just take a picture with my smartphone, sending you the link in few seconds
[15:12] <dr_willis> blackshirt: you may want to post the exact error messages. ï dint recall any force overwrite options
[15:13] <vaurdan> Touhou44, this is the problem I'm having: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzFNC7jET0aib21zMkRiem05QnM any ideias?
[15:13] <SirScott> wc
[15:14] <blackshirt> dr_willis: trying to overwrite '/bla/bla' which is also in packages firmware-linux-free 3.1
[15:15] <syskk> what's the terminology for packages that simply install other packages?
[15:15] <vaurdan> Touhou44, this is the problem I'm having: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzFNC7jET0aib21zMkRiem05QnM any ideias?
[15:15] <Lorra> syskk, are you talking about metapackages?
[15:15] <jrib> syskk: metapackage
[15:16] <Touhou44> vaurdan: I'm not sure, possibly bug which I'd report
[15:16] <vaurdan> Touhou44, I also recently had a bug with Volume slider, with replaced text to VOLUME, and that made me change to Gnome 3.6
[15:18] <padhu> I think, i enabled Voice in Pidgin, using Voice&video plug-in
[15:18] <vaurdan> Touhou44, https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzFNC7jET0aiRHk3bXhmaWgtbW8 <- see? I'm soooo close to reinstall Ubuntu 12.10... Since I've upgraded to 12.10, I only had troubles...
[15:19] <Touhou44> vaurdan: Ubuntu 12.10 is a little buggy in places I agree
[15:19] <vaurdan> My first bug was with the NVIDIA graphics... and now this
[15:20] <blackshirt> dr_willis: solved this with --force-overwrite to dpkg
[15:20] <vaurdan> Well, time to reinstall Ubuntu, right Touhou44 ?
[15:21] <Touhou44> I don't know if that's a solution, that's what Windows users tend to do. If there are bugs in the software you're using, they'll still be there after a reinstall
[15:22] <zoktar> so i have been tracking down some strange issues, and i found one of my ppa's contained a tons of related packages, i would like to remove the ppa and restore the original packages. How do i do that without getting cought in a massive chain removal of dependancys etc?.
[15:22] <vaurdan> I didn't had any of those issues when I fresh installed Ubuntu 12.10, so I belive (or I hope) that this bugs don't be here...
[15:23] <rephy222> hey does anyone know about the etc/hosts file

[15:24] <blazemore> rephy222: Yes
[15:24] <blazemore> Just add a line in it like this

[15:24] <Cajun_Lan_Man> Hello All.  I have just upgraded my Ubuntu VM from 12.04 to 12.10.  The first thing I notice is that Ubuntu feels more sluggish.  Then I notice that after a fresh boot, it's sitting on 600 megs of ram.  This is almost double what 12.04 seemed to need after a fresh boot.  Any ideas? Does 12.10 just want more memory?
[15:25] <jrib> Cajun_Lan_Man: check what's using the memory
[15:25] <rephy222> but i was wondering if i could add something like <IP_ADDRESS> www.*google*.com
[15:25] <blazemore> Cajun_Lan_Man: Install and run htop
[15:25] <fusk> hm, seems like they didn't fix the freezing.
[15:25] <Cajun_Lan_Man> jrib, compiz is taking the most, a little over 200 meg.
[15:25] <rephy222> say i wanted to block any website with google anywhere in it
[15:26] <blazemore> rephy222: For more complicated things you need something like dnsmasq
[15:26] <blazemore> rephy222: Take a look here for more information: http://serverfault.com/questions/118378/in-my-etc-hosts-file-on-linux-osx-how-do-i-do-a-wildcard-subdomain

[15:26] <rephy222> the reason i ask is cause the hosts file can get rather big
